The Middleby Corporation Reports Fourth Quarter Results

The Middleby Corporation (NASDAQ: MIDD), a leading worldwide manufacturer of equipment for the commercial foodservice, food processing, and residential kitchen industries, today reported net earnings for the 2021 fourth quarter of $102.7 million or $1.80 diluted earnings per share on net sales of $866.4 million. Adjusted net earnings were $117.1 million or $2.11 adjusted diluted earnings per share. A full reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP measures is provided at the end of the press release.

“We concluded 2021 building upon our positive momentum. We finished the year with record sales and earnings at each of our three business segments, returning us to our track record of consistent growth. We also made great strides positioning us for the future by making critical investments in technology and rapidly evolving our sales processes. We are in exciting times, with dynamic shifts in the industries we serve – we are well positioned for the future,” said Tim FitzGerald, CEO of The Middleby Corporation.

“In 2021, we continued to execute upon our long-standing acquisition strategy, strengthening our three industry-leading segments. We concluded the year with the additions of Kamado Joe, Masterbuilt and Char-Griller, further expanding our residential equipment business and significantly increasing our presence in the outdoor category,” Mr. FitzGerald further added.

“We are proud of the many accomplishments this year as we navigated the significant operational challenges from supply chain disruption due to the continuing effects of COVID. I want to thank our Middleby team across the company for their tremendous efforts and delivering the achievements of 2021.”

2021 Fourth Quarter Financial Results

  • Net sales increased 18.8% in the fourth quarter over the comparative prior year period. Excluding the impacts of acquisitions, a disposition and foreign exchange rates, sales increased 12.6% in the fourth quarter over the comparative prior year period, reflecting improvements in market conditions and consumer demand since the initial impact of COVID-19.
  • Organic net sales (a non-GAAP measure) increases were reported for all segments due to improvements in market conditions and consumer demand in the fourth quarter of 2021. A reconciliation of reported net sales by segment is as follows:

  • Total backlog at the end of the fourth quarter of 2021 amounted to a record level of $1.4 billion, excluding the fourth quarter acquisitions as compared $1.2 billion at the end of the third quarter and $522.7 million at the end of the fiscal 2020. The increase was driven by order growth, primarily at the Commercial Foodservice Group and Residential Kitchen Group, amounting to backlog levels in excess of 100% over the prior year end when excluding backlog from businesses acquired during the year.
  • Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) was $193.0 million, in the fourth quarter of 2021 due to the impact of higher sales volumes and profitability initiatives. A reconciliation of organic adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) by segment is as follows:

  • The fourth quarter earnings and adjusted EBITDA were negatively impacted by the grill acquisitions completed in the final week of fiscal 2021, including the third-party costs associated with executing the transactions. The impact on adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.04.
  • Operating cash inflows during the fourth quarter amounted to $77.4 million in comparison to $208.6 million in the prior year period. The total leverage ratio per our credit agreements was 2.8x. The trailing twelve month bank agreement pro-forma EBITDA was $823.2 million.
  • Cash balances at the end of the quarter were $180.4 million. Net debt, defined as debt excluding the unamortized discount associated with the Convertible Notes less cash, at the end of the 2021 fiscal fourth quarter amounted to $2.3 billion as compared to $1.6 billion at the end of fiscal 2020. Additionally, our current borrowing availability is approximately $2.2 billion.

“We continued to realize strong order demand across all three segments, and we are carrying a record backlog exiting 2021. While we continue to implement our long-term growth strategies, we remain heavily focused on meeting existing customer demand and managing operational challenges driven by supply chain limitations and disruptions. As we enter 2022, we have made investments in inventory, people, fabrication equipment, and facilities, in a concerted effort to support our backlog and pipeline of developing business opportunities. We are experiencing further increases in material, labor, and shipping costs as inflationary pressures persist. This has led to proactive price increases for our customers, offsetting these significant cost pressures. We are actively managing the margin impact on our business in the near-term and remain committed to progressing our long-term profitability goals in 2022,” concluded Mr. FitzGerald.

(1) Includes amortization of deferred financing costs and convertible notes issuance costs.

 

(2) Adjusted diluted weighted average number of shares was calculated based on excluding the dilutive effect of shares to be issued upon conversion of the notes to satisfy the amount in excess of the principal since the company's capped call offsets the dilutive impact of the shares underlying the convertible notes. The calculation of adjusted diluted earnings per share excludes the principal portion of the convertible notes as this will always be settled in cash.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The company supplements its consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis with this non-GAAP financial information to provide investors with greater insight, increase transparency and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations from these results should be carefully evaluated. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release do not have standard meanings and may vary from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

The company believes that organic net sales growth, non-GAAP adjusted segment EBITDA, adjusted net earnings and adjusted diluted per share measures are useful as supplements to its GAAP results of operations to evaluate certain aspects of its operations and financial performance, and its management team primarily focuses on non-GAAP items in evaluating performance for business planning purposes. The company also believes that these measures assist it with comparing its performance between various reporting periods on a consistent basis, as these measures remove from operating results the impact of items that, in its opinion, do not reflect its core operating performance including, for example, intangibles amortization expense, impairment charges, restructuring expenses, and other charges which management considers to be outside core operating results.

The company believes that free cash flow is an important measure of operating performance because it provides management and investors a measure of cash generated from operations that is available for mandatory payment obligations and investment opportunities, such as funding acquisitions, repaying debt and repurchasing our common stock.

The company believes that its presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is useful because it provides investors and securities analysts with the same information that Middleby uses internally for purposes of assessing its core operating performance.
