Wesco Aircraft Holdings Reports Results for
Fiscal 2015 First Quarter
VALENCIA, Calif., February 5, 2015 Wesco Aircraft Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: WAIR), a leading provider of comprehensive supply chain management services to the global aerospace industry, today announced results for its fiscal 2015 first quarter ended December 31, 2014.
Fiscal 2015 First Quarter Highlights:
· Net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 were $373.7 million, an increase of 66 percent compared to the first quarter of last year; organic sales growth was 1.6 percent.
· Fiscal 2015 first quarter diluted earnings per share were $0.20; adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.25 compared to $0.27 in the fiscal 2014 first quarter.
· Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) in the fiscal 2015 first quarter were $48.8 million, compared to $44.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2014.
· Wesco Aircraft reaffirms its fiscal 2015 guidance.
Fiscal 2015 First Quarter Results
Net sales in the fiscal 2015 first quarter were $373.7 million, an increase of 66 percent compared to $224.7 million in the prior year period. The net sales increase was driven mainly by the Haas acquisition.
Wesco Aircrafts organic sales (excluding the February 2014 acquisition of Haas Group) increased 1.6 percent in the fiscal 2015 first quarter compared to the prior year period. Net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 included a settlement related to the termination of a contract. Organic sales growth would have been 4.6 percent, excluding this settlement.
External sales in the North America segment increased 67 percent, and Rest of World external sales rose 62 percent, compared to the fiscal 2014 first quarter. The increase in external sales in both segments primarily reflects the Haas acquisition.
In the fiscal 2015 first quarter, ad hoc and contract sales as a percentage of total net sales represented 23 percent and 77 percent, respectively, compared to 39 percent and 61 percent, respectively, for the same period last year. The change in mix primarily reflects the Haas acquisition, growth in international sales and the companys efforts to increase its proportion of more predictable contract business.
Net income in the fiscal 2015 first quarter was $19.7 million, or $0.20 per diluted share. Adjusted net income was $24.6 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, compared to $25.9 million, or $0.27 per diluted share in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to higher selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses resulting from the Haas acquisition and growth in the companys operations as well as an increase in interest expense. These factors were partially offset by an increase in gross profit.
Adjusted EBITDA in the fiscal 2015 first quarter was $48.8 million, an increase of 10 percent compared to $44.5 million in the same period last year.
Hal Weinstein, Wesco Aircrafts interim chief executive officer, said, While net income in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 was lower than the same period last year, business is solid and we remain confident in our forecast for the full year. Since being named interim CEO in December, I have worked closely with the entire Wesco leadership team and the executive committee of the board of directors to drive our Management Action Plan.
The plan is well underway with measurable expectations for delivering enhanced performance and encompasses several key initiatives across multiple areas of our business. These initiatives include the implementation of an integrated sales organization; numerous operational improvements; a more efficient procurement strategy; and supply chain optimization.
Financial Outlook
Weinstein continued, We believe that Wesco Aircraft remains well positioned to take advantage of strong OEM build rates and an expanding MRO market. The combination of expected sales growth and better operating performance gives us confidence in our fiscal 2015 guidance.
Wesco Aircraft reaffirms its fiscal 2015 guidance as follows: net sales of between $1.625 billion and $1.675 billion; diluted earnings per share of between $1.14 and $1.24; and adjusted diluted earnings per share of between $1.30 and $1.40. The company also continues to expect fiscal 2015 free cash flow of between $100 million and $120 million.
At the same time, the company estimates that the stronger U.S. dollar could result in slightly lower net sales and a potential headwind of approximately $0.02 per diluted share in fiscal 2015.

Non-GAAP Financial Information
Adjusted net income represents net income before: (i) amortization of intangible assets, (ii) amortization or write-off of deferred financing costs and original issue discount, (iii) unusual or non-recurring items and (iv) the tax effect of items (i) through (iii) above calculated using an assumed effective tax rate.
Adjusted basic earnings per share represents basic earnings per share calculated using adjusted net income as opposed to net income.
Adjusted diluted earnings per share represents diluted earnings per share calculated using adjusted net income as opposed to net income.
Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before: (i) income tax provision, (ii) net interest expense, (iii) depreciation and amortization and (iv) unusual or non-recurring items.
Organic sales represent total net sales less net sales attributable to Haas Group, which was acquired in February 2014.
Free cash flow represents cash from operations less purchases of property and equipment.
Wesco Aircraft utilizes and discusses adjusted net income, adjusted basic earnings per share, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted EBITDA, organic sales and free cash flow, which are non-GAAP measures management uses to evaluate the companys business, because it believe these measures assist investors and analysts in comparing the companys performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that management does not believe are indicative of core operating performance. Wesco Aircraft believes these metrics are used in the financial community, and the company presents these metrics to enhance understanding of its operating performance. Readers should not consider adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income as alternatives to net income, determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indicator of operating performance. Adjusted net income, adjusted basic earnings per share, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted EBITDA, organic sales and free cash flow are not measurements of financial performance under GAAP, and these metrics may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. See Exhibits 4 and 5 for reconciliations of adjusted net income, adjusted basic earnings per share, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted EBITDA and organic sales to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
