Dallas, Texas – February 16, 2016 – CSW Industrials, Inc. (NASDAQ:CSWI), a diversified industrial growth company with well-established, scalable platforms and domain expertise across three segments: Industrial Products; Coatings, Sealants & Adhesives; and Specialty Chemicals, today reported results for the fiscal third quarter ended December 31, 2015.

Sales during the quarter increased 16.5% to $70.9 million, compared to $60.9 million in the prior year period. Higher sales during the period were mostly the result of acquisitions completed in the past twelve months and higher volume in construction related products, partially offset by lower volume in energy, mining and industrial end markets. Sales year-to-date increased 23.2% to $243.6 million compared to $197.8 million last year. Consolidated year-to-date organic revenue declined 3.0%, reflecting a 50.9% organic decline in energy end markets. Excluding energy end markets, organic revenue increased 4.7% year-to-date versus the prior-year.

Net income in the fiscal third quarter of 2016 was $2.0 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to $6.4 million in the prior year. The effective tax rate for the quarter was 58.6% due to costs incurred in connection with the spinoff from Capital Southwest Corporation (the “Spinoff”) which are not deductible for tax purposes. Adjusted to exclude one-time expenses related to recent acquisitions and startup costs following the Spinoff and to normalize the tax rate to 35%, adjusted net income in the third quarter of 2016 was $3.8 million, or $0.24 per diluted share. Lower earnings relative to the prior year reflect standalone public company expenses during the period of $1.5 million and lost leverage on lower sales in commodity related end markets.

Joseph B. Armes, CSW Industrials’ Chief Executive Officer, commented, “During the quarter we achieved several meaningful milestones in our evolution to integrate six disparate businesses into one diversified industrial growth company. We completed a leadership reorganization under our three operating segments, finalized a $250.0 million revolving credit facility and consummated two asset acquisitions. We continue to make progress on the integration of existing and acquired businesses. While pressure on


commodity prices negatively impacted us during the quarter, our broadly diversified portfolio of products and end markets position us well to deliver value to our shareholders as we execute against our long-term strategy and drive efficiency through integration.”

Results of Operations

In the fiscal third quarter of 2016, revenue increased 16.5% to $70.9 million, compared with the prior year level of $60.9 million. Higher sales include a $13.2 million contribution from recent acquisitions. Mostly as a result of sensitivity to energy and mining end markets, organic revenue declined year-to-date 3.0% versus the prior-year-to-date.

Gross profit in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 increased 12% to $32.1 million over the prior year level of $28.7 million, which included a $3.4 million contribution from the acquisition of Strathmore. Gross margin as a percentage of sales was 45.3%, compared to 47.1% in the prior year period. Lower gross margin compared to the prior year primarily reflected the expected change in sales mix due to the inclusion of Strathmore products.

Operating expenses in the fiscal third quarter of 2016 were $26.5 million, or 37.4% of sales, compared to the prior year level of $19.0 million, or 31.2% of sales. Increased operating expenses were attributable to Strathmore operations ($3.4 million), investment in people and systems ($1.6 million), standalone public company expenses ($1.5 million) and the following one-time items: (i) costs incurred in connection with the Spinoff of $2.1 million; (ii) transaction costs of $0.8 million; and (iii) reversal of the Strathmore earn-out accrued liability of $2.0 million.

Adjusted for one-time items, fiscal third quarter 2016 operating expenses were $25.6 million, or 36.1% of sales, compared to $19.0 million, or 31.2% of sales in the prior year.

Net income for the third quarter was $2.0 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, compared with net income of $6.4 million in the prior year period. Adjusted for one-time items and a normalized tax rate, net income was $3.8 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, compared to net income of $6.4 million in the prior year.

We use adjusted earnings per share, adjusted net income, adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating expenses and adjusted operating income, together with financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as revenue, income from operations, operating expense, operating income and net income, to assess our historical and prospective operating performance and to enhance our understanding of our core operating performance. We also believe these measures are useful for investors to assess the operating performance of our business without the effect of non-operating items.
