PENDLETON, Ind., October 29, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Remy International, Inc. (NASDAQ:REMY), a leading worldwide manufacturer, remanufacturer, and distributor of starter motors and alternators for light vehicle and commercial vehicle applications, multi-line products and hybrid electric motors, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2014.
Financial Results | Three months ended September 30, | Nine months ended September 30, | |||||
2014 | 2013 | 2014 | 2013 | ||||
Net sales | $287.5 million | $262.8 million | $887.1 million | $826.9 million | |||
Net income (loss) | $(11.1) million | $10.4 million | $8.3 million | $23.7 million | |||
Diluted earnings (loss) per share | $(0.35) | $0.33 | $0.26 | $0.73 | |||
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities | $(2.7) million | $25.3 million | $(6.7) million | $15.3 million | |||
Cash earnings per share | $0.54 | $0.73 | $1.81 | $1.90 | |||
Adjusted EBITDA | $31.9 million | $33.9 million | $102.5 million | $99.5 million | |||
Second Quarter Highlights
• | Net sales of $287.5 million for the third quarter of 2014, an increase of 9% compared to $262.8 million for the third quarter of 2013. |
• | Adjusted EBITDA of $31.9 million for the third quarter of 2014 compared to $33.9 million for the third quarter of 2013. The decrease of $2.0 million in Adjusted EBITDA is primarily driven by USA Industries, Inc. loss of $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2014 due to inefficiencies as a result of the announced closure of the New York facilities and impact of a flood during the quarter. |
• | On September 8, 2014, we announced entry into agreements for a transaction (the "Transaction") with Fidelity National Financial, Inc. ("FNF"). The Transaction will result in the indirect distribution of all the shares of Remy common stock that are held by FNF to the holders of its Fidelity National Financial Ventures ("FNFV") tracking stock, and the acquisition by Remy of a small company, Fidelity National Technology Imaging, LLC ("FNTI"), from FNF. The Transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including Remy stockholder approval. The Transaction is expected to close in December 2014 or in the first quarter of 2015. |
• | On September 11, 2014, we announced that we signed a Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Release (the "Agreement") with Tecnomatic, S.p.A. to settle all disputes relating to a 2008 action filed in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of Indiana. In addition, we entered into a cross licensing arrangement of certain patents with Tecnomatic. The value of the patents received from Tecnomatic is approximately $13.9 million. Under the terms of the Agreement and the cross licensing arrangement, we paid to Tecnomatic a $16.0 million cash payment in September 2014 and will pay a $16.0 million cash payment on or before March 15, 2015. |

• | On October 29, 2014, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.10 per share payable on November 26, 2014 to stockholders of record as of November 12, 2014. |
Jay Pittas, Remy International, Inc. President and CEO commented, "The third quarter was certainly an active and challenging period for us with many moving parts. Despite the distractions, sales grew 9%, outpacing the market, with year-over-year increases across all product lines. Long term industry fundamentals remain favorable and support continued growth in vehicle and component sales. Our customer mix and regional diversification combined with our strategic global investments provide a solid foundation for the future."

Use of Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) is the standard framework of guidelines for financial accounting. U.S. GAAP includes the standards, conventions, and rules accountants follow in recording and summarizing transactions and in the preparation of financial statements. In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP, Remy has provided adjusted EBITDA, cash earnings and cash earnings per share, and adjusted operating income, non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, which are frequently used by management, analysts, investors and other interested parties. Management believes that the non-U.S. GAAP financial measures presented provide a useful measure of Remy’s financial performance since they exclude certain items which do not reflect ongoing operations. A reconciliation of U.S. GAAP net income to adjusted EBITDA, U.S. GAAP Operating income (loss) to Adjusted operating loss, and adjusted EBITDA to cash earnings and cash earnings per share is provided herein. Adjusted EBITDA is defined by the Company as net income attributable to common stockholders before (i) interest expense–net, (ii) income tax expense, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) stock-based compensation expense, (v) net income attributable to noncontrolling interest, (vi) restructuring, other charges and other impairment charges, (vii) loss on extinguishment of debt and refinancing fees, (viii) executive officer separation cost, (ix) certain purchase accounting finished goods inventory step-up costs, (x) litigation settlements and related legal fees, (xi) Transaction related fees, and (xii) other adjustments. We have updated our definition to
2
include litigation settlements and related legal fees, as well as, Transaction related fees. All periods presented conform to this definition. Cash earnings is defined as adjusted EBITDA less cash paid for (i) income taxes, (ii) interest expense and (iii) capital expenditures. We define adjusted operating income as operating income (loss) before (i) purchase accounting related charges, (ii) restructuring and other charges, (iii) litigation settlements and related legal fees, (iv) Transaction related fees, (v) executive officer separation cost, and (vi) other adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA, cash earnings, and adjusted operating income as defined by the Company may differ from non-U.S. GAAP measures used by other companies and is not a measurement under U.S. GAAP. There are limitations inherent in non-U.S. GAAP financial measures in that they exclude a variety of charges and credits that are required to be included in a U.S. GAAP presentation, and therefore do not present the full measure of the Company's recorded costs against its revenue. Accordingly, in analyzing Remy’s future financial performance, non-U.S. GAAP results presented should be considered together with U.S. GAAP results, rather than as an alternative to U.S. GAAP basis financial measures. Reconciliations of non-U.S. GAAP measures to related U.S. GAAP measures are presented in the financial schedules which accompany this release.

Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of performance defined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We use adjusted EBITDA as a supplement to our U.S. GAAP results in evaluating our business. Other companies in our industry define adjusted EBITDA differently from us and, as a result, our measure is not comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in our industry.
We define adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to common stockholders before interest expense–net, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, net income attributable to noncontrolling interest, restructuring, other charges and other impairment charges, loss on extinguishment of debt and refinancing fees, executive officer separation cost, certain purchase accounting finished goods inventory step-up costs and other adjustments as set forth in the reconciliations provided below. We have updated our definition to include litigation settlements and related legal fees, as well as, Transaction related fees. All periods presented conform to this definition.
Adjusted EBITDA is one of the key factors upon which we assess performance. As an analytical tool, adjusted EBITDA assists us in comparing our performance over various reporting periods on a consistent basis because it excludes items that we do not believe reflect our ongoing operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our performance, as an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or as an alternative to any other measure prescribed by U.S. GAAP. There are limitations to using non-U.S. GAAP measures such as adjusted EBITDA. Although we believe that adjusted EBITDA may make an evaluation of our operating performance more consistent because it removes items that do not reflect our ongoing operations, adjusted EBITDA excludes certain financial information that some may consider important in evaluating our performance.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders.

Cash earnings and cash earnings per share
Management believes cash earnings and cash earnings per share, which are non-U.S. GAAP measures, are useful in evaluating the ongoing operating performance of the Company. We define cash earnings as adjusted EBITDA less cash paid for (i) income taxes, (ii) interest expense and (iii) capital expenditures. Cash earnings per share is defined as cash earnings divided by the weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding for the period. Other companies in our industry define cash earnings and cash earnings per share differently from us and, as a result, our measures are not comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in our industry.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of cash earnings per share to its most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, diluted earnings (loss) per share:
