Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2017 Summary
Net sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 increased 5.7% to $2.34 billion from $2.21 billion in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016. Net sales were positively impacted by the acquisitions of Haddon House Food Products, Inc. and Gourmet Guru, Inc. Due to the integration of these acquisitions, the financial impact of acquired businesses is no longer fully separable.
Gross margin for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 was 15.75%, an increase of 15 basis points from 15.60% for the same period last year. The increase was primarily driven by margin enhancement initiatives and fuel surcharges, partially offset by competitive pricing.
Total operating expenses increased $24.2 million, to $307.1 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to $283.0 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016. Total operating expenses were 13.12% of net sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017, a 34 basis point increase compared to the same period last fiscal year. Total operating expenses for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 included approximately $2.9 million of previously disclosed restructuring costs. Operating expenses also included year-over-year increases in incentive and stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization expense, partially offset by realized benefits from margin enhancement initiatives. Total operating
expenses for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 included approximately $0.8 million of restructuring and asset impairment costs related to the Company's retail business and $0.3 million of acquisition costs.
Net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 increased 12.1%, or $4.2 million, to $38.9 million, or $0.76 per diluted share, from $34.7 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017, the Company recorded a gain of $6.1 million, before tax, related to the sale of its stake in Kicking Horse Coffee, a Canadian roaster and marketer of organic and fair trade coffee. Adjusted for the after-tax impact of restructuring expenses and the gain on sale of Kicking Horse Coffee in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017, and for the after-tax impact of restructuring, asset impairment and acquisition related costs in the prior year period, adjusted earnings per diluted share for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 was $0.72 compared to $0.70 for the same period last year.
Operating income decreased $1.0 million to $61.5 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to $62.5 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016. Adjusted for restructuring expenses incurred in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 and restructuring, asset impairment, and acquisition related costs in the prior year comparable period, adjusted operating income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 increased 1.3% to $64.4 million compared to adjusted operating income of $63.6 million for the fourth quarter last year. EBITDA for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 was $83.6 million, an increase of 1.3% from $82.5 million in the same period last year. Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 was $86.5 million, an increase of 3.5% from $83.6 million of adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016.
Cash flow from operations was $117.7 million and capital expenditures were $16.1 million, resulting in free cash flow of $101.6 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017. Cash flow from operations was $91.0 million and capital expenditures were $12.3 million, resulting in free cash flow of $78.7 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016.
Fiscal Year 2017 Summary
Net sales for fiscal 2017 totaled $9.27 billion, a 9.5% increase compared to fiscal 2016. Net sales for fiscal 2017 were positively impacted by the acquisitions of Haddon House Food Products, Inc., Global Organic/Specialty Source, Inc., Nor-Cal Produce, Inc. and Gourmet Guru, Inc. Due to the integration of these acquisitions, the total financial impact of these acquired businesses is no longer fully separable.
Gross margin for the fiscal year increased 31 basis points to 15.41% compared to 15.10% in fiscal 2016. This increase was primarily due to margin enhancement initiatives and the favorable impact of acquisitions, partially offset by a lack of inflation and competitive pricing pressure.
Total operating expenses for fiscal 2017 increased $147.7 million to $1.20 billion from $1.06 billion for fiscal 2016. At 12.97% of net sales, total operating expenses for fiscal 2017 were 51 basis points higher as a percentage of net sales than fiscal 2016. The increase in total operating expenses was primarily attributable to the acquired businesses, which have higher costs to serve their customers. Additionally, the increase was driven by $6.9 million of restructuring expenses as well as higher depreciation and amortization and incentive and stock-based compensation expense, which was partially offset by costs incurred in fiscal 2016 that did not recur in fiscal 2017, including $1.8 million of bad debt expense related to outstanding receivables for a customer who declared bankruptcy in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, $2.2 million of acquisition related costs and $2.5 million of startup costs related to the Company's Gilroy, California facility. Operating expenses for fiscal 2016 also included $5.6 million in restructuring and asset impairment expense.
Net income for fiscal 2017 increased 3.5%, or $4.4 million, to $130.2 million, or $2.56 per diluted share, from $125.8 million, or $2.50 per diluted share, for fiscal 2016. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017, the Company recorded a gain of $6.1 million, before tax, related to the sale of its stake in Kicking Horse Coffee, a Canadian roaster and marketer of organic and fair trade coffee. Adjusted for the after-tax impact of restructuring expenses and the gain on sale of Kicking Horse Coffee during fiscal 2017, and for the after-tax impact of restructuring, asset impairment and acquisition related costs during fiscal 2016, adjusted earnings per diluted share was $2.57 compared to $2.59 in the same period last year.
Operating income for the fiscal year ended July 29, 2017 increased $1.9 million to $226.0 million from $224.1 million for the fiscal year ended July 30, 2016. Adjusted for restructuring expenses incurred in fiscal 2017 and restructuring, asset impairment, and acquisition related costs in the prior year, adjusted operating income increased 0.4% to $232.9 million for the fiscal year ended July 29, 2017, up from $231.9 million for fiscal 2016. EBITDA for fiscal 2017 was $312.1 million, an increase of 5.7% from $295.1 million in the same period last year. Adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal year ended July 29, 2017 was $318.9 million, an increase of 5.3% from $302.9 million of adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal year ended July 30, 2016.
Cash flow from operations was $280.8 million and capital expenditures were $56.1 million, resulting in free cash flow of $224.7 million for the fiscal year ended July 29, 2017. Cash flow from operations was $296.6 million and capital expenditures were $41.4 million, resulting in free cash flow of $255.2 million for the fiscal year ended July 30, 2016.
“I am proud of UNFI’s accomplishments in fiscal 2017, including the integration of four acquisitions and growth with our united sales force and differentiated service offerings. As we enter fiscal 2018, we are well positioned to drive efficiencies and grow with new and existing customers this year and beyond,” concluded Mr. Spinner.
Fiscal 2018 Guidance
UNFI is providing its financial outlook for fiscal 2018, ending July 28, 2018. The Company expects net sales for fiscal 2018 in the range of approximately $9.63 billion to $9.81 billion, an increase of 3.8% to 5.8% over fiscal 2017 net sales. The Company estimates earnings per diluted share for fiscal 2017 in the range of approximately $2.67 to $2.77, an increase of approximately 4.3% to 8.2% over fiscal 2017 earnings per diluted share of $2.56. Capital expenditures for fiscal 2018 are expected to be 0.6% to 0.7% of estimated fiscal 2018 net sales. Effective during the first quarter of fiscal 2018, UNFI is adopting Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2016-09, Improvement to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The adoption will affect the Company's effective tax rate and increase its variability. The Company's stock price will be a key driver of this variability. Based on a stock price of $37, the adoption of ASU 2016-09 is expected to raise the fiscal 2018 tax rate by approximately 75 basis points to within a range of 40.3% to 40.7% and negatively impact earnings per diluted share by $0.03. The impact of the adoption is expected to be almost entirely in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 which aligns with the vesting of the Company's annual equity-based awards. The Company's guidance is based on current plans and expectations and is subject to a number of known and unknown uncertainties and risks, including those set forth under the Company's safe harbor statement of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 below.
Free cash flow, adjusted operating income, adjusted earnings per diluted share, EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. Please refer to the tables in this press release for a reconciliation of all non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: Statements in this press release regarding the Company's business that are not historical facts are "forward-looking statements" that involve risks and uncertainties and are based on current expectations and management estimates; actual results may differ materially. The risks and uncertainties which could impact these statements are described in the Company's filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including its annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on September 28, 2016 and its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on December 8, 2016, March 9, 2017 and June 8, 2017, and other filings the Company makes with the SEC, and include, but are not limited to, the ability of the Company to retain customers of Haddon House Food Products, Inc. ("Haddon"), Nor-Cal Produce, Inc. ("Nor-Cal"), Global Organic/Specialty Source, Inc. ("Global Organic") and Gourmet Guru, Inc. ("Gourmet Guru") and their affiliated entities that we purchased on terms similar to those in place prior to the Company’s acquisition of these businesses; the Company's dependence on principal customers; the Company's sensitivity to general economic conditions, including the current economic environment; changes in disposable income levels and consumer spending trends; the Company's ability to reduce its expenses in amounts sufficient to offset its increased focus on sales to conventional supermarkets and the resulting lower gross margins on those sales; the Company's reliance on the continued growth in sales of natural and organic foods and non-food products in comparison to conventional products; increased competition in the Company's industry as a result of increased distribution of natural, organic and specialty products by conventional grocery distributors and direct distribution of those products by large retailers and online distributors; the Company's ability to timely and successfully deploy its warehouse management system throughout its distribution centers and its transportation management system across the Company; the addition or loss of significant customers or material changes to the Company's relationships with these customers; volatility in fuel costs; volatility in foreign exchange rates; the Company's sensitivity to inflationary and deflationary pressures; the relatively low margins and economic sensitivity of the Company's business; the potential for disruptions in the Company's supply chain by circumstances beyond its control; the risk of interruption of supplies due to lack of long-term contracts, severe weather, work stoppages or otherwise; consumer demand for natural and organic products outpacing suppliers’ ability to produce those products; moderated supplier promotional activity, including decreased forward buying opportunities; union-organizing activities that could cause labor relations difficulties and increased costs; the ability to identify and successfully complete acquisitions of other natural, organic and specialty food and non-food products distributors; management's allocation of capital and the timing of capital expenditures; the Company's ability to successfully integrate and deploy its operational initiatives to achieve synergies from the acquisitions of Global Organic, Nor-Cal, Haddon House, and Gourmet Guru; the Company's ability to realize the anticipated benefit from its restructuring program in conjunction with various cost saving and efficiency initiatives, including acquisition integration, severance and transition related costs, as well as the anticipated opening of the Company's shared services center, all within the cost estimates and timing currently contemplated; and the potential for business disruptions in connection with the anticipated opening of the Company's shared services center. Any forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and, as such, speak only as of the date made. The Company is not undertaking to update any information in the foregoing reports until the effective date of its future reports required by applicable laws. Any estimates of future results of operations are based on a number of assumptions, many of which are outside the Company's control and should not be construed in any manner as a guarantee that such results will in fact occur. These estimates are subject to change and could differ materially from final reported results. The Company may from time to time update these publicly announced estimates, but it is not obligated to do so.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures: To supplement the financial information presented on a generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) basis, the Company has included in this press release non-GAAP financial measures for free cash flow, adjusted operating income, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted earnings per diluted common share. Free cash flow is cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures. Adjusted operating income excludes restructuring and asset impairment expenses and acquisition related costs. EBITDA excludes depreciation, amortization, other expense and income, net (including interest expense and, for the fiscal 2017 periods, a gain the Company recognized on the sale of an investment) and income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA excludes restructuring and asset impairment expenses and acquisition related costs and the other items excluded in calculating EBITDA. Adjusted earnings per diluted common share excludes the impact of restructuring and asset impairment expenses, the gain recognized by the Company in connection with the sale of an investment and acquisition costs. The reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the tables appearing below. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any measure prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that presenting these non-GAAP financial measures aids in making period-to-period comparisons and is a meaningful indication of its actual and estimated operating performance. The Company's management utilizes and plans to utilize this non-GAAP financial information to compare the Company's operating performance during the 2017 fiscal year to the comparable periods in the 2016 fiscal year and to internally prepared projections.
