CSS INDUSTRIES REPORTS FISCAL 2019 FIRST QUARTER RESULTS
Company reaffirms outlook for fiscal 2019 net sales and adjusted EBITDA; revises net income guidance due to goodwill impairment and inventory write-down costs
First Quarter Summary
• | Net sales of $64.1 million increased 33 percent over the prior fiscal year quarter, reflecting the contribution from the Simplicity acquisition |
• | Net loss of $18.5 million included $7.3 million of acquisition and integration-related costs and $1.4 million impairment of goodwill |
• | Adjusted EBITDA was ($6.7) million compared to ($3.3) million in the prior year quarter |
• | Cash used for operations was $15.4 million, compared to $15.3 million in the prior year quarter |
PLYMOUTH MEETING, PA, August 1, 2018 - CSS Industries, Inc. (NYSE: CSS), a leading consumer products company serving the seasonal, gift and craft markets, today announced results for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, representing the first quarter of fiscal 2019.
Net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 were $64.1 million compared to $48.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2018, driven by the November 2017 acquisition of the Simplicity Creative Group business (“Simplicity”), which contributed net sales of $19.5 million in the current year quarter. Excluding Simplicity, net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 were $44.6 million.
Gross profit was $11.6 million in the quarter compared to $11.8 million in the prior year quarter and gross margin was 18.2 percent compared to 24.4 percent in the prior year quarter. Adjusted gross profit was $17.1 million for the quarter compared to $15.0 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted gross margin was 26.7 percent in the quarter compared to 31.0 percent in the prior year quarter. The decline in adjusted gross margin percent was due to the mix impact of volume declines due to the loss of high-margin programs in the craft and gift categories, as well as manufacturing variances carried in from the prior year as a result of lower production volume and focused inventory reductions, partially offset by the acquisition of Simplicity.
Selling, general & administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $28.9 million in the quarter compared to $20.7 million in the prior year quarter. The increase was attributable to the addition of Simplicity expenses and $1.4 million of incremental integration and other costs.
The Company recorded a pre-tax charge of $1.4 million for the impairment of goodwill in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The impairment charge relates to the June 1, 2018 acquisition by a Company affiliate of the assets and business of Fitlosophy, Inc., a provider of innovative products that inspire people to develop healthy habits by focusing on effective goal-setting through journaling. Because of the continued discrepancy between the Company’s stockholders’ equity balance and its market capitalization, goodwill from the foregoing acquisition was deemed impaired and expensed accordingly.
Operating loss for the quarter was $18.7 million compared to $8.9 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted operating loss was $10.0 million compared to $5.4 million in the prior year quarter. Net loss was $18.5 million in the quarter compared to $7.1 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted net loss was $11.9 million compared to $4.8 million in the prior year quarter. The diluted net loss per share was $2.03 compared to $0.78 in the prior year quarter, and the adjusted diluted net loss per share was $1.31 compared to $0.53 in the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was ($6.7) million for the current quarter compared to ($3.3) million in the prior fiscal quarter.
Strategic Initiatives Update
The Company’s overall strategy is to grow profitable sales and improve return on invested capital (ROIC) through five strategic pillars: defend the base business, identify adjacent product categories with a focus on brands, build an omni-channel business model, improve ROIC and build a collaborative One CSS culture. First quarter highlights related to these objectives included:
• | The Company has successfully exited, as planned, the transition services agreement associated with the Simplicity acquisition. |
• | In aligning with our strategic pillars, the Company initiated a review of certain product lines to identify underperforming products, with the goal of reducing costs and improving working capital to enhance our long-term returns. As a result, in July the Company committed to a plan to exit its back-to-school sports licensing product line and also restructure its specialty gift product line, while revising its “go to market” strategy. This initiative will drive an approximate 75 percent reduction in SKUs within this area, allowing the Company to further rationalize its facilities footprint moving ahead. In conjunction with this change, the Company expects to incur inventory write-down costs between $1,000,000 and $1,500,000. These costs will be recorded during our second quarter of fiscal 2019. |
• | The Company experienced positive results from the implementation of its new omni-channel growth strategy. As a result of the new strategy, sales attributable to a major on-line retailer grew at a double-digit rate in the first quarter. |
• | The Company announced its decision to consolidate its Simplicity and McCall operations in the United Kingdom. The consolidation is expected to be complete by the second quarter of fiscal 2019, improving the effectiveness of the combined brands while also delivering lower costs. The Company expects to incur approximately $0.3 million of exit costs associated with this consolidation, which will be recorded during our second quarter. |
“Our first quarter is always a slow quarter for us and we expected these difficult year-over-year comparisons in part because of known program losses with a major customer and the timing of customer resets and replenishment orders,” said President and Chief Executive Officer Christopher J. Munyan. “Our adjusted gross margins, as expected, were impacted by inefficiencies from lower production volumes in earlier periods, as well as the mix impact of lower sales volumes. We are making good progress with our strategic initiatives focused on improving profitability, executing on acquisition synergies and growing our eCommerce business.”
The following is a summary of net sales by product category (dollars in thousands):
Quarter Ended June 30, | ||||||||
2018 | 2017 | Change | ||||||
Seasonal | $ | 4,799 | $ | 4,642 | 3.4 | % | ||
Gift | 24,040 | 25,139 | (4.4 | )% | ||||
Craft | 35,288 | 18,543 | 90.3 | % | ||||
Total | $ | 64,127 | $ | 48,324 | 32.7 | % | ||
Seasonal
The Company defines the seasonal product category as products sold to mass-market retailers for holidays and seasonal events including Christmas, Valentine’s Day, Easter and back-to-school. Sales and production forecasts for these products are known well in advance of shipment. The seasonal nature of this business has historically resulted in lower sales levels in the first and fourth quarters, and higher sales levels in the second and third quarters.
Seasonal net sales increased 3.4 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2018, driven primarily by the timing of ribbon & bow sales.
Gift
The Company defines the gift product category as products primarily designed to celebrate certain life events or special occasions such as weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, graduations or the birth of a child, as well as stickers, memory books and stationery. These products are primarily sold into mass and specialty retailers, floral and packaging wholesalers and distributors. Products in this category are generally ordered on a replenishment basis throughout the year.
Gift net sales decreased 4.4 percent in the quarter compared to the prior fiscal year quarter, primarily due to lower sales of social stationery, infant goods and packaging & wholesale products, partially offset by higher sales of everyday ribbons & bows, bags and wrap. The lower sales of social stationery were due to timing of replenishment shipments. Lower infant sales were due a program loss with a major retailer and the lower packaging & wholesale products sales reflect declining demand. The higher sales of everyday ribbons, bows, bags and wrap resulted from share growth with a major retailer.
Craft
The craft product category reflects products used for craft activities including ribbons, trims, buttons, sewing patterns, knitting needles, needle arts and kids crafts. These products are sold to mass market and specialty retailers on a replenishment basis.
Craft net sales increased 90.3 percent in the quarter compared to the prior fiscal year quarter, driven by the contribution of the Simplicity acquisition. Excluding sales attributable to the Simplicity business, net sales decreased 15.1 percent in the quarter, primarily due to continued inventory destocking at a major retailer as well as a shift in the timing of a button program reset.
Income Tax Items
The Company’s effective tax rate for the quarter was 1.8 percent compared to 18.5 percent for the prior fiscal year quarter. In the current fiscal year quarter, the Company’s recognition of a tax benefit was limited to the amount it expects to recognize for the full fiscal year. That limitation, combined with a lower U.S. federal corporate tax rate following U.S. tax reform, were the primary drivers of the decrease in the effective tax rate.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
The Company ended the quarter with $33.1 million of cash and cash equivalents compared to $49.7 million at the end of the prior fiscal year quarter. The lower balance was primarily due to the Company’s use of cash to fund the acquisition of Simplicity. Inventory increased to $117.9 million from $115.3 million at the end of the prior fiscal year quarter, reflecting the addition of Simplicity inventory, partially offset by the Company’s efforts to reduce inventory. Accounts receivable increased to $51.9 million from $42.8 million at the end of the prior fiscal year quarter, primarily due to the Simplicity acquisition. Accounts payable increased to $25.8 million compared to $14.1 million at the end of the prior fiscal year quarter, resulting from the Simplicity acquisition as well as the Company’s efforts to extend vendor payment terms. The Company ended the quarter with $40.4 million in total debt resulting from borrowings associated with the acquisition of Simplicity.
Cash used for operating activities was $15.4 million for the quarter compared to $15.3 million in the prior fiscal year quarter. Cash from operating activities included $1.7 million of after-tax cash acquisition and integration-related cash costs compared to $0.2 million in the prior fiscal year period. Cash used for investing activities included the acquisition of Fitlosophy for $2.5 million and the final payment related to the Simplicity acquisition for $2.5 million. Capital expenditures were $3.2 million, compared to $0.9 million in the prior fiscal year quarter, primarily due to integration-related information technology investments. Free cash flow was a use of $18.6 million compared to a use of $16.2 million in the prior fiscal year quarter. The Company returned $1.8 million to shareholders through cash dividends during the quarter, consistent with the prior fiscal year quarter.
Outlook
“We are reaffirming our net sales and adjusted EBITDA guidance for fiscal 2019,” said Mr. Munyan. “We continue to expect solid growth in sales and adjusted EBITDA in fiscal 2019 and strong free cash flow. We also continue to explore opportunities to reposition our Company through targeted acquisitions in categories where we can grow while working to stabilize our base business and capitalize on synergies from recent acquisitions. Lastly, we continue to monitor the potential for tariffs on our imported products coming from China. At this point, we do not consider there to be a material impact on our business this fiscal year.”
The Company expects to generate net sales of $398 million to $412 million in its fiscal year ending March 31, 2019, resulting in year over year growth of 10 percent to 14 percent. The driver of growth will be the full year impact of the Simplicity acquisition, partially offset by a decline in the Company’s base business.
For the full year, we expect an adjusted tax rate of 26 percent, primarily comprised of the new U.S. corporate tax rate, adjusted for the projected mix between our domestic and foreign income and the impact of a discrete item related to equity grants. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the recent tax reform legislation, and will adjust its tax rate as appropriate as additional guidance is released in this area.
Net loss outlook is revised and expected to be in the range of $5 million to $7.5 million compared to a net loss of $36.5 million in fiscal 2018. The increase from our previously provided guidance of a net loss of $2 million to $4 million is driven primarily by costs associated with the goodwill impairment, inventory write-down costs and higher inventory step-up costs as a result of the Fitlosophy acquisition.
The Company reaffirms its adjusted EBITDA guidance for fiscal 2019 to be in the range of $26 million to $29 million compared to $24.3 million in fiscal 2018. The expected growth in adjusted EBITDA primarily reflects the full year contribution of Simplicity and integration savings related to Simplicity, partially offset by a decline in the Company’s base business.

In addition, the Company believes that the presentation of these financial measures enhances an investor’s ability to make period to period comparisons of the Company’s operating results. The presentation of our non-GAAP measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company has reconciled the non-GAAP information included in this release to the nearest U.S. GAAP measures, as required under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding the use of non-GAAP financial measures.
