Apogee Enterprises Reports Fiscal 2022 Second-quarter Results

Apogee Enterprises, Inc. (Nasdaq: APOG) today announced its fiscal 2022 second-quarter results. Second-quarter revenue grew 2.0 percent to $325.8 million, compared to $319.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2021, led by growth in Architectural Services and Large-Scale Optical. The company reported a net loss of $(0.08) per diluted share, which included $20.8 million of pre-tax costs related to previously announced restructuring actions. This compares to earnings of $0.67 per diluted share in the prior-year quarter, and $0.42 in the first quarter of fiscal 2022. Adjusted earnings, which exclude the impact of the restructuring costs, were $0.53 per diluted share, compared to $0.73 in the second quarter of fiscal 2021, and $0.42 in the first quarter of fiscal 2022.1

Commentary

“We continued to drive progress in the second quarter, despite on-going challenges in our operating environment,” said Ty R. Silberhorn, Chief Executive Officer. “I am proud of our team’s efforts this quarter, as we delivered sequential adjusted earnings growth compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2022, driven by strong performance in Architectural Services and Large-Scale Optical. The business also continued to generate solid cash flow, which we used to strengthen our balance sheet and return cash to shareholders. We achieved these gains in the face of significant cost inflation, supply chain challenges, and construction end markets that remain well below pre-pandemic levels.”

Mr. Silberhorn continued, “We are taking steps to protect our margins in the near-term, including pricing actions, closely managing costs, and focusing on stronger operational execution. We are also taking action to better position Apogee for the long-term, by beginning to implement our new strategy and driving progress on our enterprise transformation initiatives.”

Segment Results

Architectural Framing Systems

Architectural Framing Systems second-quarter revenue was $150.0 million, compared to $152.9 million in the prior-year period, primarily reflecting lower volume, partially offset by improved pricing. Framing Systems had second-quarter operating income of $8.3 million, which included $2.0 million of restructuring costs. This compares to operating income of $11.7 million in last year’s second quarter. Excluding the restructuring costs, adjusted operating income2 was $10.3 million, compared to $11.7 million in last year’s second quarter, primarily reflecting increased costs for materials and freight, and lower volume, partially offset by improved pricing and benefits from restructuring actions implemented in fiscal 2021. Segment backlog decreased to $406 million, compared to $423 million at the end of the first quarter.

Architectural Glass

Architectural Glass revenue in the second quarter was $79.4 million, compared to $86.6 million in the prior-year quarter, primarily reflecting lower volume. Architectural Glass had a second-quarter operating loss of $(17.0) million, which included $17.4 million of restructuring costs. This compares to operating income of $5.0 million in last year’s second quarter. Excluding the restructuring costs, adjusted operating income2 was $0.4 million, down from $5.0 million in the prior-year quarter, primarily due to increased costs for materials and freight, and lower volume, partially offset by an improved sales mix and increased factory productivity.

Architectural Services

Architectural Services revenue grew 13 percent to $83.0 million, from $73.7 million in the prior-year quarter, driven by increased volume from executing projects in backlog. Second-quarter operating income increased to $7.2 million, compared to $6.6 million in the prior-year period, primarily reflecting the increased volume, partially offset by a less favorable project mix. Segment backlog grew to $572 million, up from $559 million at the end of the first quarter.

Large-Scale Optical

Large-Scale Optical revenue was $23.5 million, up from $16.9 million in the second quarter last year, driven by a more favorable sales mix and increased volume, as demand recovered from the impact of COVID in the prior year. In the prior year, the segment’s manufacturing operations were closed for a large part of the second quarter and customer demand was significantly lower due to COVID. Operating income improved to $5.5 million, up from $2.1 million in last year’s second quarter, primarily driven by the improved sales mix and increased volume.

Corporate and Other

Corporate and other costs in the second quarter increased to $7.1 million, up from $2.2 million in the prior-year quarter, primarily due to investments in transformation initiatives and increased health care costs. Corporate costs in the second quarter also included $1.4 million of restructuring costs. Corporate and other costs in last year’s second quarter included $1.3 million of COVID-related costs and $1.0 million of costs related to acquired project matters.

Financial Condition

Fiscal year to date, net cash provided by operating activities was $54.9 million, compared to $85.3 million in the first half of fiscal 2021. Cash flow in the prior-year period benefited from reduced working capital and temporary actions related to COVID. Capital expenditures through the first half of the fiscal year were $10.1 million, compared to $14.2 million in the same period last year. In the second quarter, the company repurchased 248,500 shares of stock for $9.8 million. Fiscal year to date, the company has returned $32.5 million of cash to shareholders through share repurchases and dividend payments, up from $14.5 million in the first half of fiscal 2021.

Quarter-end total debt was $163 million, compared to $168 million at the end of last year’s second quarter. Cash and cash equivalents were $61.8 million, compared to $19.0 million at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2021.

Restructuring

On August 11, 2021, the company announced plans to realign and simplify its business structure. During the second quarter, the company incurred $20.8 million of pre-tax restructuring charges related to this announcement, primarily for asset impairments and employee severance. $18.5 million of the restructuring costs were included in cost of sales and $2.3 million were included in selling, general and administrative expenses. The company anticipates approximately $5 million of additional pre-tax restructuring costs related to the August announcement, which it expects to incur during the remainder of fiscal year 2022.

Outlook

The company previously provided guidance of full-year GAAP earnings in the range of $2.20 to $2.40 per diluted share. The company is now providing guidance of full year adjusted earnings in the range of $2.20 to $2.40 per diluted share, which excludes the impact of restructuring costs. This guidance includes $7 to $10 million of expected pre-tax costs related to investments in transformation initiatives. The company anticipates significant cost inflation through the remainder of the fiscal year, which it will work to mitigate through pricing actions, improved execution, and cost-savings measures. The company expects a tax rate of approximately 24.5 percent in the second half of fiscal 2022, and now expects full-year capital expenditures of approximately $35 million, down from the previous guidance of approximately $45 million.

Conference Call Information

The company will host a conference call today at 8:00 a.m. Central Time to discuss its financial results and provide a business update. This call will be webcast and is available in the Investor Relations section of the company’s website, along with presentation slides, at https://www.apog.com/events-and-presentations.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release and other financial communications may contain the following non-GAAP measures:

  • Adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net earnings and adjusted earnings per diluted share (“adjusted earnings per share” or “adjusted EPS”) are used by the company to provide meaningful supplemental information about its operating performance by excluding amounts that are not considered part of core operating results to enhance comparability of results from period to period. Examples of items excluded to arrive at this adjusted measure in recent reporting periods include: impairment charges, restructuring costs, acquired project-related charges, and COVID-19 related expenditures.
  • Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities, minus capital expenditures. The company considers this measure an indication of its financial strength. However, free cash flow does not fully reflect the company’s ability to freely deploy generated cash, as it does not reflect, for example, required payments on indebtedness and other fixed obligations.
  • Net Debt is a non-GAAP measure defined as the sum of long-term and current debt on our consolidated balance sheet, less cash and cash equivalents. The company considers this measure helpful to evaluate our capital structure and financial leverage, and our ability to fund investing and financing activities.
  • Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and certain non-cash, non-recurring and other adjustment items. We believe this metric provides useful information to investors and analysts about the Company's performance because it eliminates the effects of certain items that are unusual in nature or whose fluctuation from period to period do not necessarily correspond to changes in the operations of the company.

Another non-GAAP operational measure that management uses is backlog. Backlog represents the dollar amount of signed contracts or firm orders, generally as a result of a competitive bidding process, which is expected to be recognized as revenue. Backlog is not a term defined under U.S. GAAP and is not a measure of contract profitability. Backlog should not be used as the sole indicator of future segment revenue because we have a substantial number of projects with short lead times that book-and-bill within the same reporting period and are not included in backlog.

Management uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate the company’s historical and prospective financial performance, measure operational profitability on a consistent basis, and provide enhanced transparency to the investment community. These non-GAAP measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the reported financial results of the company prepared in accordance with GAAP. Other companies may calculate these measures differently, limiting the usefulness of the measures for comparison with other companies.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “project,” “should” and similar expressions are intended to identify “forward-looking statements”. These statements reflect Apogee management’s expectations or beliefs as of the date of this release. The company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. All forward-looking statements are qualified by factors that may affect the results, performance, financial condition, prospects and opportunities of the company , including the following: (A) uncertainty regarding the potential impacts and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic; (B) global economic conditions and the cyclical nature of the North American and Latin American commercial construction industries, which impact our three architectural segments, and consumer confidence and the condition of the U.S. economy, which impact our large-scale optical segment; (C) fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; (D) actions of new and existing competitors; (E) ability to effectively utilize and increase production capacity; (F) departure of key personnel and ability to source sufficient labor; (G) product performance, reliability and quality issues; (H) project management and installation issues that could affect the profitability of individual contracts; (I) changes in consumer and customer preference, or architectural trends and building codes; (J) dependence on a relatively small number of customers in certain business segments; (K) revenue and operating results that could differ from market expectations; (L) self-insurance risk related to a material product liability or other event for which the company is liable; (M) dependence on information technology systems and information security concerns; (N) cost of compliance with and changes in environmental regulations; (O) fluctuations in the availability and cost of materials used in our products and the impact of trade; (P) integration of recent acquisitions and management of acquired contracts; (Q) impairment of goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets; (R) our ability to effectively develop and execute our enterprise transformation and strategy initiatives; (S) increases in costs related to employee health care benefits; and (T) risks that anticipated results from business restructuring initiatives will not be achieved, implementation of cost-saving and business restructuring initiatives may take more time or cost more than expected, the anticipated cost savings may be materially less than anticipated, and the restructuring may result in disruption in delivery of services to our customers. The company cautions investors that actual future results could differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements, and that other factors may in the future prove to be important in affecting the company’s results, performance, prospects, or opportunities. New factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all such factors, nor can it assess the impact of each factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or a combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. More information concerning potential factors that could affect future financial results is included in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 27, 2021 and in subsequent filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
