Third Quarter Sales increase to approximately $435 Million
October 23, 2014 (Dallas, TX) – Builders FirstSource, Inc. (NasdaqGS: BLDR), a leading supplier and manufacturer of structural and related building products for residential new construction in the United States, today reported its results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2014.
Third quarter highlights include the following (see financial schedules for more information, including non-GAAP reconciliations):
| • | Third quarter 2014 sales increased to $434.9 million, up 7.9%, compared to $402.9 million for the third quarter of 2013. |
| • | Gross margin percentage was 22.5 percent, down from 23.0 percent in the third quarter of 2013, and up from 22.0 percent in the second quarter of 2014. |
| • | Adjusted EBITDA was $20.2 million, compared to $23.0 million for the third quarter of 2013. |
| • | Recently completed acquisitions include Slone Lumber Company, Inc. in Houston, Texas, West Orange Lumber Company in Orlando, Florida, Truss Rite, LLC in Dallas, Texas, and Trim Tech of Austin, Inc. in Austin, Texas. On a trailing twelve month basis as of their respective acquisition dates, these companies had generated combined revenue of approximately $67 million. |
| • | Total liquidity at September 30, 2014 was approximately $197 million, and includes $67.8 million of cash and $129.4 million in borrowing availability under our revolver. |
Floyd Sherman, Builders FirstSource CEO commented on the company’s results, stating, “We ended the third quarter of 2014 with sales of approximately $435 million, and on a same-store-basis increased our sales by 5.3 percent compared to the third quarter of 2013. Our sales volume, excluding the impact of recent acquisitions, grew 6.6 percent before a 1.3 percent negative impact of commodity price deflation on sales. For the current quarter, the U.S. Census Bureau reported actual single-family housing starts in the South Region, which encompasses all of our markets, increased 10.5 percent compared to the third quarter of 2013. On a September year-to-date basis, actual single-family starts increased 4.0 percent in the South Region compared to 2013, while our sales volume grew 9.9 percent before a 3.1 percent negative impact of commodity price deflation on our sales.”
Builders FirstSource Reports Third Quarter 2014 Results (continued)
Mr. Sherman added, “In addition to our focus on profitable organic growth, our focus has also been on growing through acquisitions. Our recent acquisitions in the Orlando, Houston, Dallas and Austin markets should allow us the opportunity to expand our product and service offerings to a more diverse customer base in what we consider very attractive housing markets.”
Commenting on the current quarter results, Chad Crow, Builders FirstSource Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer added, “We continue to grow our business with a focus on improving gross margins and are pleased with the 90 basis point improvement we have achieved on a year-to-date basis. Our selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) increased $7.5 million over the third quarter of 2013, excluding the impact of recent acquisitions. Approximately half of this increase was due to higher sales volume and costs associated with our recent acquisitions. The remaining increase related to expenses incurred in anticipation of stronger housing starts this year in areas such as delivery capacity and incremental personnel, combined with increases in group health and non-cash stock compensation expense during the current quarter.”
Third Quarter 2014 Results Compared to Third Quarter 2013
(See accompanying financial schedules for full financial details and reconciliations of Non-GAAP financial measures to their GAAP equivalents.)
| • | Sales were $434.9 million, an increase of $32.0 million or 7.9 percent. Excluding the impact of recent acquisitions, we estimate sales increased approximately 6.6 percent due to increased sales volume, which was offset 1.3 percent by the impact of commodity price deflation on our sales. |
| • | Gross margin percentage was 22.5 percent, down from 23.0 percent last year, largely due to more favorable trends in market prices for commodity lumber and lumber sheet good products in the third quarter of 2013. |
| • | SG&A expenses increased $9.6 million, or 13.3 percent. As a percentage of sales, SG&A expense increased to 18.8 percent compared to 18.0 percent. Incremental group health expense and non-cash stock compensation expense, combined with the negative impact of commodity deflation on our sales, increased our SG&A expense expressed as a percent of sales by approximately 70 basis points for the current quarter. |
| • | Interest expense was $6.4 million, a decrease of $1.1 million. The decrease was primarily related to a $1.1 million reduction in the non-cash, fair value adjustment related to stock warrants issued in connection with our 2011 term loan. See supplemental schedule attached. |
| • | We recorded $0.5 million of income tax expense compared to a $0.1 million income tax benefit in the third quarter of 2013. We recorded a reduction of the after-tax, non-cash valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets of $3.3 million and $3.4 million in the third quarters of 2014 and 2013, respectively. Absent the valuation allowance, the effective tax rate inclusive of discrete items would have been 40.7 percent and 25.8 percent in the third quarters of 2014 and 2013, respectively. As of September 30, 2014, our gross federal income tax net operating loss available for carry-forward was approximately $247 million. |
| • | Income from continuing operations was $8.7 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, compared to $13.0 million, or $0.13 per diluted share. |
| • | Adjusted EBITDA was $20.2 million, or 4.7 percent of sales, compared to $23.0 million, or 5.7 percent of sales. See reconciliation attached. |

Liquidity and Capital Resources
| • | Total liquidity at September 30, 2014 was approximately $197 million, and includes $67.8 million of cash and $129.4 million in borrowing availability under our revolver. |
| • | Operating cash flow was $29.8 million for the third quarter of 2014, compared to $29.7 million last year. |
| • | During the third quarter of 2014, we used approximately $24.4 million of cash on hand to acquire West Orange Lumber Company and Truss Rite, LLC. |
| • | In July 2014, we borrowed $30 million under our senior secured revolving credit facility, and have $30 million in outstanding borrowings as of September 30, 2014. |
| • | Capital expenditures were $2.4 million for the third quarter of 2014, compared to $4.8 million for the same quarter of 2013. Capital expenditures in the fourth quarter of 2014 are expected to approximate $10.0 million, most of which is related to the relocation of an existing facility and the opening of a new facility, both in the state of Texas. |
Outlook
Concluding, Mr. Sherman added, “We continue to believe the long-term outlook for the housing industry remains positive, and that the pace of the recovery will accelerate as consumers gain more confidence in the economy and pent-up housing demand gets released. We will continue looking for ways to improve our profitability while still growing our market share, including seeking additional strategic acquisition targets, in order to be even better positioned for such a rebound.”
