Standard Register Reports First Quarter 2014 Financial Results

DAYTON, Ohio (April 25, 2014) – Standard Register (NYSE: SR) today announced its financial results for the first quarter of 2014. The Company reported revenue of $228.5 million and a net loss of $7.1 million or $0.83 per diluted share. The results compare to revenue of $141.6 million for the first quarter of 2013 and net income of $4.7 million or $0.80 per diluted share.

Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes certain items as detailed in the attached reconciliation, was $13.2 million compared to $12.2 million for the first quarter of 2013.

Results for the first quarter of 2013 do not include results from WorkflowOne, which Standard Register acquired on August 1, 2013.

“Although we are not satisfied with the overall results, first-quarter revenue increased in a number of our growth solutions,” said Joseph P. Morgan, Jr., president and chief executive officer. “We are investing in the growing areas of our business and have a healthy pipeline.  However, many of our solutions have long sales cycles and lengthy customized implementations, which delay realization of revenue. Throughout 2014, we will be focused on driving sales of our entire portfolio into our large customer base. The acquisition brought us many new opportunities and the integration is proceeding on track with, and in some respects ahead of our internal plan.”

First Quarter Results

Total revenue increased 61 percent to $228.5 million compared to $141.6 million in the 2013 first quarter. On a pro forma basis, including WorkflowOne revenue for the first quarter of 2013, the Company would have reported revenue of $253.7 million.

Gross Margin as a percentage of revenue was 27.3 percent, compared to 29.6 percent for the first quarter last year. Unit and volume decreases, and costs associated with integration of the acquisition contributed to the decrease in gross margin. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $58.7 million compared to $34.7 million for the first quarter last year. The increase is primarily attributable to the acquisition and integration.

The Company incurred $5.5 million of additional expense in the first quarter of 2014 related to executing the acquisition, restructuring and integration. Capital expenditures were $3.6 million compared to $3.9 million in the first quarter last year. The Company expects to invest approximately $15 to $21 million in 2014 capital expenditures.

Standard Register contributed $5.9 million to the Company’s qualified pension plan in the first quarter of 2014 compared to $5.8 million in the first quarter last year. Total pension contributions to meet minimum funding requirements for 2014 are expected to be $42.0 million compared to contributions of $24.7 million for 2013.

Standard Register operates two business units: Healthcare and Business Solutions

Healthcare revenue was $64.8 million, an increase of 31 percent over revenue of $49.5 million in the first quarter of 2013. Technology-enabled patient information systems continued a double-digit growth rate in the first quarter, however regulatory changes in requirements for distribution of printed materials, and a large kitting project in the first quarter of 2013 also impacted the overall comparable business unit results. Operating profit was $1.9 million compared to $2.1 million in the 2013 first quarter.

Business Solutions revenue was $163.7 million, an increase of 78 percent over revenue of $92.1 million in the 2013 first quarter. The increase was attributable to business added from the acquisition and growth in revenue from Mexico-based label manufacturing operations. Declines in demand for traditional printed forms and transactional documents continue to outpace growth in the other solutions in the business unit performance. Operating profit was $1.4 million compared to $2.9 million in the 2013 first quarter.

First Quarter Highlights

·

The acquisition integration process is proceeding on track with internal plans and the Company is beginning to realize expected synergies.

Safe Harbor Statement

This press release contains forward-looking statements covered by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Because such statements deal with future events, they are subject to various risks and uncertainties and actual results could differ materially from the Company’s current expectations. Factors that could cause the Company’s results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements include, without limitation, our ability to successfully integrate the acquired assets or achieve the expected synergies of the WorkflowOne acquisition, access to capital for expanding in our solutions, the pace at which digital technologies and electronic health records (EHR) adoption erode the demand for certain products and services, the success of our plans to deal with the threats and opportunities brought by digital technology, results of cost containment strategies and restructuring

programs, our ability to attract and retain key personnel, variation in demand and acceptance of the Company’s products and services, frequency, magnitude and timing of paper and other raw material price changes, the timing of the completion and integration of acquisitions, general business and economic conditions beyond the Company’s control, and the consequences of competitive factors in the marketplace, including the ability to attract and retain customers.

Non-GAAP Measures Presented in This Press Release

The Company reports its results in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (GAAP). However, we believe that certain non-GAAP measures found in this press release, when presented in conjunction with comparable GAAP measures, are useful for investors. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position or cash flows where amounts are either excluded or included, not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. We discuss several measures of operating performance, including Adjusted EBITDA and cash flow on a net debt basis, which are not calculated in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as substitutes for, or superior to, results determined in accordance with GAAP.

Management uses Adjusted EBITDA, defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and excludes pension benefit cost, restructuring and impairment charges, acquisition and integration expense and certain acquisition fair value and other miscellaneous adjustments, to evaluate the Company’s results. We believe this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors because it provides a more complete understanding of our current underlying operating performance, a clearer comparison of current period results with past reports of financial performance, and greater transparency regarding information used by management in its decision-making. Internally, management and our Board of Directors use this non-GAAP measure to evaluate our business performance. The Company’s debt covenants are also based on the Adjusted EBITDA calculation.

In addition, because our credit facility is borrowed under a revolving credit agreement, which currently permits us to borrow and repay at will up to a balance of $125 million (subject to limitations related to receivables, inventories, and letters of credit), we take the measure of cash flow performance prior to borrowing or repayment of the credit facility. In effect, we evaluate cash flow as the change in net debt (credit facility debt less cash equivalents).

The table below provides a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most comparable measure calculated in accordance with GAAP.
