Vista Outdoor Announces FY19 First Quarter Operating Results
Vista Outdoor Generates Strong Free Cash Flow and Repays $33 Million of Debt
Vista Outdoor Raises FY19 Financial Guidance for Adjusted EPS and Free Cash Flow
Farmington, Utah, August 9, 2018 — Vista Outdoor Inc. (NYSE: VSTO) today reported operating results for the first quarter of its Fiscal Year 2019 (FY19), which ended on July 1, 2018.
"Vista Outdoor's first quarter results exceeded expectations despite continuing headwinds and market challenges," said Vista Outdoor Chief Executive Officer Chris Metz. "The company generated strong free cash flow, primarily driven by improved working capital management, which we used to pay down $33 million of long-term debt. Our focus on improved profitability is delivering results, we are driving operational excellence through cost savings initiatives and procurement strategies, and we continue to introduce innovative new products into the market.
"Our strategic transformation plan, which we announced in May 2018, is also tracking well. The transformation will allow the company to drive shareholder value by reducing leverage, improving financial flexibility and the efficiency of our capital structure, and providing additional resources to reinvest in our core product categories: ammunition, hunting and shooting accessories, hydration solutions, and outdoor cooking."
On July 9, 2018, Vista Outdoor announced it entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Bollé, Cébé and Serengeti brands. Gross proceeds from the divestiture are expected to be approximately $158 million before net working capital adjustments and transaction costs. The sale is expected to close in the second quarter of FY19, ending September 30, 2018.
"The company continues to explore strategic options for assets that fall outside of our core product categories," said Metz.
For the first quarter ended July 1, 2018:
• | Sales were $529 million, down 7 percent from the prior-year quarter. |
• | Gross profit was $113 million, down 23 percent from the prior-year quarter. |
• | Operating expenses were $153 million, compared to $107 million in the prior-year quarter. The difference was primarily due to a $45 million impairment in the current period, related to an expected loss on the sale of the company's held-for-sale assets. The loss is primarily attributable to cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments. |
• | Fully diluted earnings per share (EPS) was $(0.91), compared to $0.29 in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted EPS was $0.00, compared to $0.24 in the prior-year quarter. |
• | Cash flow provided by operating activities year to date was $74 million, compared to $41 million in the prior-year period. Year-to-date free cash flow generation was $70 million, compared to free cash flow of $25 million in the prior-year period. |
1
• | Tax rate was 1.4 percent compared to 38.2 percent in the prior-year quarter, primarily caused by the non-deductible impairment loss in the current period and the income tax effects of The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The adjusted tax rate was 119.1 percent, compared to 38.4 percent in the prior-year quarter. |
Please see the tables in this press release for a reconciliation of non-GAAP adjusted gross profit, operating profit, tax rate, fully diluted earnings per share, and free cash flow to the comparable GAAP measures.
Updated Outlook for Fiscal Year 2019
"The company generated strong free cash flow in the first quarter, and delivered results that beat expectations," said Vista Outdoor Chief Financial Officer Mick Lopez. "We have updated our sales and EPS guidance to reflect the impact of the pending eyewear sale, and despite the ongoing shooting sports market softness and commodity headwinds, we have raised our EPS and free cash flow expectations given the success of our ongoing efforts to drive profitability and to generate cash."
Vista Outdoor updates FY19 financial guidance:
• | Sales in a range of $2.10 billion to $2.16 billion, compared to previous sales guidance in a range of $2.205 billion to $2.265 billion |
• | Interest expense of approximately $55 million |
• | Tax rate reported of approximately 1 percent and an adjusted tax rate of approximately 30 percent, compared to previous guidance of a reported and adjusted tax rate of approximately 30 percent |
• | Earnings per share in a range of $(0.76) to $(0.56), and adjusted earnings per share in a range of $0.15 to $0.35, compared to previous guidance of earnings per share in a range of $0.04 to $0.24, and adjusted earnings per share in a range of $0.10 to $0.30 |
• | Capital expenditures of approximately $60 million |
• | Free cash flow in a range of $70 million to $100 million, compared to previous free cash flow guidance in a range of $55 million to $85 million |
The company also expects FY19 EBITDA margins in a range of approximately 7.5 percent to 8 percent. The guidance above does not include the impact of any future strategic acquisitions, divestitures, investments, business combinations or other significant transactions.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Gross Profit, Operating Profit, and Earnings Per Share
The adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted operating profit (adjusted EBIT), adjusted tax rate, adjusted net income, and adjusted earnings per share (adjusted EPS) presented below are non-GAAP financial measures. Vista Outdoor defines these measures as gross profit, operating profit (EBIT), tax rate, and EPS excluding, where applicable, the impact of costs incurred for contingent consideration, pension curtailment, current and potential transactions, an expected loss on the Eyewear sale, and business transformation activities. Vista Outdoor management is presenting these measures so a reader may compare gross profit, EBIT, tax rate, and EPS excluding these items, as the measures provide investors with an important perspective on the operating results of the company. Vista Outdoor management uses this measurement internally to assess business performance, and Vista Outdoor’s definition may differ from those used by other companies.

*NOTE: Adjustments to "as reported" results are items that are excluded to arrive at the "as adjusted" results for the quarters ended July 1, 2018 and July 2, 2017. EPS amounts may not foot due to rounding.
For the first quarter ended July 1, 2018:
During the quarter ended July 1, 2018, Vista Outdoor recorded a portion of the approximately $10 million of compensation for the Camp Chef earn-out, which will be paid over the next two years, subject to continued Camp Chef leadership employment and the achievement of certain incremental profitability growth milestones. Given this balance is related to the purchase price of the company and is not normal compensation of the employees and will not be a continuing cost, we do not believe these costs are indicative of operations of the company. The tax effect of the contingent consideration cost was calculated based on a blended statutory rate of approximately 24 percent.
During the quarter ended July 1, 2018, Vista Outdoor incurred transaction costs associated with possible transactions, including advisory, legal, and accounting service fees. Given the nature of transaction costs, and differences in these amounts from one transaction to another, the company feels these costs are not indicative of operations of the company. The tax effect of the transaction costs was calculated based on a blended statutory rate of approximately 24 percent.
During the quarter ended July 1, 2018, Vista Outdoor recognized an impairment of $45 million related to an expected loss on the sale of the Eyewear business consisting of the Bollé, Cébé and Serengeti brands. The loss is attributable primarily to cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments for these entities that will be reclassified to earnings upon sale of the entities. Given the infrequent and unique nature of the Eyewear divestiture, the company believes these costs are not indicative of ongoing operations. There is no tax effect of this loss because it is not deductible for tax purposes.
During the quarter ended July 1, 2018, Vista Outdoor incurred business transformation costs related to consulting services associated with a strategic supply chain efficiency initiative. These consulting services costs are directly related to improving efficiencies of inventory procurement and are therefore classified as costs of goods sold. Of the $5.2 million of cost of goods sold, $3.1 million and $2.1 million relate to the Outdoor Products and Shooting Sports segments, respectively. During the quarter ended July 1, 2018, Vista Outdoor also incurred business transformation costs related to consulting services for the review of the company’s organizational structure and portfolio of brands. Given the infrequent and unique nature of these business transformation costs, the company believes these costs are not indicative of ongoing operations. The tax effect of these costs was calculated based on a blended statutory rate of approximately 24 percent.
For the first quarter ended July 2, 2017:
During the quarter ended July 2, 2017, Vista Outdoor announced changes to our qualified and non-qualified defined benefit pension plans that resulted in a one-time pension curtailment gain of $6 million. The curtailment was effective July 31, 2017, with employees receiving a pro-rated pay credit for 2017 and no future pay credits beginning in 2018. Given the nature of this item, we believe the gain is not indicative of the ongoing operations of the company. The tax effect of the pension curtailment was calculated based on a blended statutory rate of approximately 37 percent.
During the quarter ended July 2, 2017, Vista Outdoor incurred transaction costs associated with possible transactions, including advisory, legal, and accounting service fees. Given the nature of transaction costs, and differences in these amounts from one acquisition to another, we feel these costs are not indicative of operations of the company. The tax effect of the transaction costs was calculated based on a blended statutory rate of approximately 37 percent.
During the quarter ended July 2, 2017, Vista Outdoor recorded a portion of the approximately $10 million of compensation for the Camp Chef earn-out, which will be paid over the next three years, subject to continued Camp Chef leadership employment and the achievement of certain incremental profitability growth milestones. Given this balance is related to the purchase price of the company and is not normal compensation of the employees and will not be a continuing cost, we do not believe these costs are indicative of operations of the company. The tax effect of the contingent consideration cost was calculated based on a blended statutory rate of approximately 37 percent.

Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by (used for) operating activities less capital expenditures, and excluding transaction costs paid to date and business transformation costs. Vista Outdoor management believes free cash flow provides investors with an important perspective on the cash available for debt repayment, share repurchases and acquisitions after making the capital investments required to support ongoing business operations. Vista Outdoor management uses free cash flow internally to assess both business performance and overall liquidity.

Adjusted Earnings Per Share - Guidance Reconciliation Table
The projected adjusted earnings per share (EPS), excluding the impact of costs incurred to date for contingent consideration, current and possible transactions, an expected loss on the Eyewear sale, and business transformation activities, is a non-GAAP financial measure that Vista Outdoor defines as EPS excluding the impact of these items. Vista Outdoor management is presenting this measure so a reader may compare EPS, excluding these items, as this measure provides investors with an important perspective on the operating results of the company. Vista Outdoor management uses this measurement internally to assess business performance, and Vista Outdoor’s definition may differ from those used by other companies.
