MARYSVILLE, Ohio (May 5, 2014) - The Scotts Miracle-Gro Company (NYSE: SMG), the world’s leading marketer of branded consumer lawn and garden products, today announced results for its fiscal second quarter ended March 29, 2014 that were driven by strong sell-in of its consumer products in both the U.S. and Europe.
Adjusted income from continuing operations increased 38 percent during the second quarter, driven by increased sales, continued margin expansion and strong control of operating expenses.
Net sales were $1.08 billion for the quarter, an increase of 7 percent compared to $1.01 billion a year ago, due to strong initial sell-in to retailers.
Fiscal year-to-date consumer purchases in the U.S. - as measured by point-of-sale data from the Company’s largest retail partners - were slightly down through the end of April, below internal expectations, due primarily to poor weather and a delayed start to the season.
“It should come as no surprise that consumer activity was lighter than we had originally anticipated, but we have seen high levels of consumer purchases when the weather has cooperated,” said Jim Hagedorn, chairman and chief executive officer. “We are pleased with the strong support we are seeing from our retail partners and glad to see a strong start to the season in Europe, where our business is currently trending ahead of our internal expectations.
“We remain optimistic about our prospects this season and continue to expect adjusted earnings per share of $3.05 to $3.20 for the full year.”
Second Quarter Details
Sales in the Global Consumer segment increased 9 percent to $1.05 billion during the second quarter, compared to $962.8 million during the same quarter a year ago. Strong retailer support, pricing adjustments and the acquisition of the Tomcat business drove the increase.
Scotts LawnService sales were down 12 percent to $28.9 million in the second quarter, compared to $32.9 million a year ago, primarily due to a delay in the start of the spring season.
For the quarter, the adjusted company-wide gross margin rate was 40.1 percent, compared with 37.4 percent a year ago. The 270-basis-point improvement was primarily attributable to planned cost reductions, targeted pricing and increased sales volume due to strong sell-in to retailers. The increased sales volume drove favorable product mix and improved leverage on fixed costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) increased $6 million to $212.2 million during the second quarter, compared to $206.7 million a year ago, in line with the Company’s internal expectations.
The consolidated company-wide adjusted income from continuing operations before income taxes was $211.2 million during the second quarter, compared to $154.2 million a year ago. The operating income from the Global Consumer segment for the quarter increased 23 percent to $269.5 million, compared with $218.9 million a year ago. The Scotts LawnService segment reported operating loss of $20.3 million for the quarter, compared with a loss of $17.0 million during the same quarter a year ago.
Adjusted income from continuing operations for the second quarter increased to $136.7 million, or $2.17 per share, which excludes impairment, restructuring and other charges, as well as one-time costs related to financing. That compares with adjusted income of $99.3 million, or $1.59 per share, last year. On a GAAP basis, income from continuing operations was $125.7 million, or $2.00 per share, compared with $99.1 million, or $1.59 per share, a year ago.
Year-to-Date Details
Net sales for the first six months of fiscal 2014 were $1.27 billion, an increase of 6 percent from $1.20 billion a year ago. The year-over-year change was attributable to increased sales in the Global Consumer segment, primarily due to strong retailer support, targeted pricing and the acquisition of the Tomcat business. For the first six months of the year, Scotts LawnService sales were down 3 percent, primarily due to a delayed start to the season.
The adjusted company-wide gross margin rate for the first six months increased 290 basis points to 36.8 percent, compared to 33.9 percent a year ago, primarily due to planned cost reductions, targeted pricing and increased sales volume due to strong sell-in to retailers. The increased sales volume drove favorable product mix and improved leverage on fixed costs.
SG&A increased $6 million to $336.6 million for the first six months, in line with Company expectations.
Adjusted income from continuing operations was $71.1 million, or $1.13 per share, for the first six months of the year, compared to $30.8 million, or $0.49 per share, during the same period a year ago. Those results exclude impairment, restructuring and other charges, as well as one-time costs related to financing. Including those items, reported income from continuing operations for the first six months of fiscal 2014 was $59.9 million, or $0.95 per share, compared with $30.8 million, or $0.49 per share, a year ago.

THE SCOTTS MIRACLE-GRO COMPANY
Net Sales and Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations before Income Taxes by Segment
(In millions)
(Unaudited)
The Company is divided into the following reportable segments: Global Consumer and Scotts LawnService®. This division of reportable segments is consistent with how the segments report to and are managed by the chief operating decision maker of the Company.
Segment performance is evaluated based on several factors, including income (loss) from continuing operations before amortization, impairment, restructuring and other charges, which is not a generally accepted accounting principle ("GAAP") measure. Senior management of the Company uses this measure of operating profit (loss) to evaluate segment performance because we believe this measure is the most indicative of performance trends and the overall earnings potential of each segment.
Corporate & Other consists of revenues and expenses associated with the Company’s supply agreements with Israel Chemicals Ltd. and the amortization related to the Roundup® Marketing Agreement, as well as corporate, general and administrative expenses and certain other income/expense items not allocated to the business segments.

THE SCOTTS MIRACLE-GRO COMPANY
Footnotes to Preceding Financial Statements
(1) | Basic income per common share amounts is calculated by dividing income from continuing operations, income from discontinued operations and net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. | |||||
(2) | Diluted income per common share amounts are calculated by dividing income from continuing operations, income from discontinued operations and net income by the weighted average number of common shares, plus all potential dilutive securities (common stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance shares, performance units, restricted stock and restricted stock units) outstanding during the period. | |||||
(3) | In the second quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company completed the sale of its Wild Bird Food business. As a result, effective in its second quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company classified its results of operations for all periods presented to reflect the Wild Bird Food business as a discontinued operation. | |||||
(4) | The Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Disclosure Items includes the following non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted income from continuing operations and adjusted diluted income per share from continuing operations - These measures exclude charges or credits relating to impairments, restructurings, discontinued operations and other unusual items such as costs or gains related to discrete projects or transactions that are apart from, and not indicative of, the results of the operations of the business. | |||||
Adjusted EBITDA - This measure is calculated as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization as well as certain other items such as the impact of the cumulative effect of changes in accounting, costs associated with debt refinancing and other non-recurring, non-cash items affecting net income. We believe this measure provides additional information for determining our ability to meet debt service requirements. The presentation of adjusted EBITDA herein is intended to be consistent with the calculation of that measure as required by our borrowing arrangements, and used to calculate a leverage ratio (maximum of 4.00 at March 29, 2014) and an interest coverage ratio (minimum of 3.50 for the twelve months ended March 29, 2014). The Company was in compliance with the terms of all debt covenants at March 29, 2014. | ||||||
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures used in managing the business may provide users of this financial information additional meaningful comparison between current results and results in prior operating periods. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are the most indicative of the Company's ongoing earnings capabilities and that disclosure of these non-GAAP financial measures therefore provides useful information to investors and other users of its financial statements, such as lenders. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. | ||||||
