HARVEY, IL. — November 29, 2017 (BUSINESS WIRE) - Atkore International Group Inc. (the "Company" or "Atkore") (NYSE: ATKR) announced earnings for its fiscal 2017 full-year and fourth quarter ended September 30, 2017 ("fourth quarter").
"For fiscal year 2017, we are pleased to deliver Net Income and Earnings per share that increased 44% and 35% year over year, respectively. Despite the continuation of lower volumes due to soft market demands coupled with increasing raw material costs, we were successful in addressing these headwinds through effective and strategic pricing practices," commented John Williamson, Atkore's President and CEO.
"We strengthened our market presence with acquisitions that broaden our depth and breadth of product offerings. Atkore’s strong management practices and disciplined use of its business system enables us to drive improvements that result in better serving our customers and delivering value for our shareholders," Mr. Williamson added.
Fiscal 2017 Full-Year Results
Net sales for fiscal 2017 decreased $19.5 million to $1,503.9 million, a decline of 1.3% compared to $1,523.4 million for fiscal 2016. Adjusted net sales, which excludes the Fence and Sprinkler product lines, which the Company exited in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, decreased 0.8%, compared to fiscal 2016 due to $68.0 million of lower volume of mechanical pipe products within the solar end-market and lower demand for metal electrical conduit and fittings products. Additionally, there was a decrease of $29.3 million resulting from fewer working days during fiscal 2017. Fiscal 2016 was a 53-week fiscal compared to fiscal 2017, which was a 52-week fiscal year. Partially offsetting these decreases in net sales was an increase of $86.5 million resulting from higher average net selling prices due to the pass through impact of higher input costs and $6.6 million resulting from the acquisition of Marco Cable Management and Flexicon Limited during the third quarter and fourth quarter of fiscal 2017, respectively.
Gross profit decreased by $6.1 million to $362.6 million for fiscal 2017 due to lower volume of products sold. Gross margin remained flat at 24.1% in fiscal 2017 compared to 24.2% in fiscal 2016.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $36.6 million, or 16.7% to $182.8 million for fiscal 2017 compared to $219.4 million for fiscal 2016. The decrease was primarily due to $15.4 million of higher consulting services paid to CD&R and related termination fees paid during fiscal 2016. The Company had $10.2 million of lower incentive-based compensation. Stock-based compensation expense was $8.3 million lower during fiscal 2017 compared to fiscal 2016 resulting from a change from liability accounting to equity accounting. The Company recorded $6.7 million of higher expense resulting from the release of indemnified uncertain tax positions during fiscal 2016. The decrease is partially offset by an increase of $7.5 million in contingent liabilities related to a ruling on the Company's imports of conduit fittings within the Atkore Steel Components Inc. business.
Net income increased by $25.8 million to $84.6 million for fiscal 2017, as compared to $58.8 million for fiscal 2016. Adjusted net income increased $12.7 million to $94.3 million for fiscal 2017 compared to $82.5 million for fiscal 2016. The increase in
1
| Exhibit 99.1 | |
both net income and adjusted net income was primarily driven by lower interest expense resulting from a debt refinancing during fiscal 2017.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $7.4 million or 3.1%, to $227.6 million for fiscal 2017, as compared to $235.0 million for fiscal 2016 related to lower volume of products sold across all product categories, partially offset by improved productivity.
Diluted earnings per share on a GAAP basis was $1.27 for fiscal 2017, an increase of $0.33 from fiscal 2016. Adjusted diluted earnings per share was $1.42 per share for fiscal 2017 compared to $1.31 for fiscal 2016.

Net sales for the fourth quarter of 2017 decreased to $395.8 million, a decline of 4.9% compared to $416.2 million for the prior-year period, driven primarily by lower working days during the fourth quarter of 2017 compared to 2016.
Gross profit decreased by $3.5 million to $89.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2017, as compared to $93.3 million for the prior-year period primarily driven by lower working days during the fourth quarter of 2017.

SG&A expenses decreased $12.3 million or 21.5%, to $44.7 million for fiscal 2017, as compared to $57.0 million for fiscal 2016, largely driven by $6.7 million of higher expense resulting from the release of indemnified uncertain tax positions during fiscal 2016 and $4.2 million of lower incentive-based compensation expense during fiscal 2017.
Net income increased by $5.3 million to net income of $20.9 million for the fourth quarter, as compared to $15.6 million for the prior-year period due to lower interest expense resulting from a debt refinancing during fiscal 2017.

Segment Results
Electrical Raceway
Electrical Raceway net sales decreased $5.9 million, or 2.0%, to $293.1 million for the fourth quarter, as compared to $299.1 million for the prior-year period, primarily due to lower working days during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to 2016.
Adjusted EBITDA increased $2.2 million, or 4.44%, to $50.9 million for the fourth quarter, as compared to $48.7 million for the prior-year period, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin increased from 16.3% to 17.4%. The increases were primarily attributable to our ability to maintain an average selling price, which decreased less than the decrease in raw material costs due to our ability to execute the Company's strategic pricing strategy.
Mechanical Products & Solutions
MP&S net sales declined $14.8 million, or 12.5%, to $103.0 million for the fourth quarter, as compared to $117.8 million for the prior-year period due to lower working days the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 and lower volume of products sold.
Adjusted EBITDA declined $5.6 million, or 26.9%, to $15.1 million for the fourth quarter, as compared to $20.6 million for the prior-year period due to lower working days the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 and lower volume of products sold. Adjusted EBITDA Margin decreased to 14.6% from 17.5% in fiscal 2017 due to an increase in raw material input costs greater than an increase in our average selling prices and lower volume of product sold, partially offset by productivity efficiencies.
Full Year 2018 Guidance1
The Company expects fiscal year 2018 Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $245 - $260 million and Adjusted EPS to be in the range of $1.45 - $1.60.
Fiscal 2018 First Quarter Guidance1
The Company expects the first quarter of fiscal 2018 Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $55 - $60 million and Adjusted EPS to be in the range of $0.30 - $0.35.

The Company assumes no obligation to update the information contained herein, which speaks only as of the date hereof.
Non-GAAP Financial Information
This press release includes certain financial information, not prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States ("GAAP") . Because not all companies calculate non-GAAP financial information identically (or at all), the presentations herein may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. Further, these measures should not be considered substitutes for the performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. See non-GAAP reconciliations below in this press release for a reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Adjusted Net Sales
We present Adjusted net sales to facilitate comparisons of reported net sales from period to period within our MP&S segment. In August 2015, we announced plans to exit the Fence and Sprinkler product lines in order to re-align our long-term strategic focus. These product lines were exited during the first quarter of fiscal 2016. We define Adjusted net sales as reported net sales excluding net sales directly attributable to Fence and Sprinkler. We believe Adjusted net sales is useful for investors because management uses Adjusted net sales as an operating measure to evaluate our ongoing business operations, which no longer include Fence and Sprinkler.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
We use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin in evaluating the performance of our business. We use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin in the preparation of our annual operating budgets and as indicators of business performance and profitability. We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin allow us to readily view operating trends, perform analytical comparisons and identify strategies to improve operating performance.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before: income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, interest expense (net), loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt, restructuring and impairments, stock-based compensation, gain on sale of joint venture, consulting fees, certain legal matters, transaction costs, other items, and the impact from our Fence and Sprinkler exit. Prior to fiscal 2017, net income was also adjusted to exclude net periodic pension benefit cost and the impact from routine anti-microbial coated sprinkler pipe, or "ABF," product liability. These costs are no longer an adjustment to EBITDA beginning in fiscal 2017. Prior fiscal years have not been restated for this change due to the relative insignificance and nature of these amounts.
We believe Adjusted EBITDA, when presented in conjunction with comparable GAAP measures, is useful for investors because management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a profitability measure in evaluating the performance of our business. We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of Adjusted net sales.
Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share
We use Adjusted net income and Adjusted earnings per share in evaluating the performance of our business and profitability. Management believes that these measures provide useful information to investors by offering additional ways of viewing the Company’s results that, when reconciled to the corresponding GAAP measure provide an indication of performance and profitability excluding the impact of unusual and or non-cash items. We define Adjusted net income as net income (loss) before consulting fees, stock-based compensation expense and other items, including the impact from our Fence and Sprinkler exit. We define Adjusted earnings per share as basic and diluted earnings per share excluding the per share impact of consulting fees, stock-based compensation and other items, including the impact from our Fence and Sprinkler exit.
Leverage Ratio - Net debt/Adjusted EBITDA
We define leverage ratio as the ratio of net debt (total debt less cash and cash equivalents) to Adjusted EBITDA on a trailing twelve month basis. We believe the leverage ratio is useful to investors as an alternative liquidity measure.
