SunOpta Announces First Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Revenue growth of 15.7% vs prior year

Sequential revenue growth of 17.6% and gross profit growth of 52.1%

Strong quarterly year over year revenue, gross profit and EBITDA growth expected for the balance of the year

Major capacity expansion projects on track

SunOpta Inc. (“SunOpta” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq:STKL) (TSX:SOY), a leading healthy food and beverage company focused on plant-based foods and beverages and fruit-based foods and beverages, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended April 2, 2022.

All amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars and results are reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP, except where specifically noted.

First quarter 2022 highlights:

  • Revenues of $240.2 million for the first quarter of 2022 increased 15.7% reflecting 13.4% growth in plant-based and 18.7% increase in fruit-based compared to the prior year
  • Gross margin decreased 270 basis points to 11.7% from 14.4% in the prior year, primarily reflecting inflationary factors impacting raw materials, freight, labor and utilities. Gross margin increased 270 basis points to 11.7% from 9.0% in the fourth quarter of 2021, reflecting increased production and pricing actions.
  • Net earnings from continuing operations were $0.7 million compared to $1.7 million in the prior year.
  • Adjusted earnings¹ attributable to common shareholders was $0.6 million or $0.01 per diluted common share in the first quarter of 2022, compared to earnings of $1.3 million or $0.01 per diluted common share in the first quarter of 2021.
  • Adjusted EBITDA¹ of $15.6 million, or 6.5% of revenues for the first quarter of 2022, was down 14.7% versus $18.3 million or 8.8% of revenues in the first quarter of 2021. Adjusted EBITDA increased 46% versus $10.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2021.

“We delivered strong first quarter results compared to Q4, reflecting significant progress on recent initiatives to enhance capacity and productivity coupled with robust demand across our portfolio. Plant-based revenue increased 13.4% on a year-over-year basis, driven by oat-based offerings up 59% and proprietary brands, with price and volume/mix both positive factors. The sharp recovery in our fruit-based business, where revenue increased 18.7%, was largely influenced by recent pricing actions as well as continued growth in fruit snacks and smoothie bowls,” said Joe Ennen, Chief Executive Officer. “While margins were below our year-earlier levels, we made significant progress from the fourth quarter of 2021, and believe that we have remedied production challenges in our plants and have passed on over 90% of inflationary pressures with price increases. I’m pleased to report that we are on track with expansion projects, including our new plant in Texas. This is a testimony to our focus on execution in this challenging environment. I’m also very proud of our recently released ESG report that outlines our framework around products, planet, people, and governance along with highlighting progress made in 2021. SunOpta is passionate about our commitments to sustainability as we continue to fuel the future of food. We remain highly confident in our strategic direction and growth outlook as well as our ability to create significant shareholder value.”

First Quarter 2022 Results

Revenues of $240.2 million for the first quarter of 2022 increased 15.7% compared to the first quarter of 2021 reflecting 13.4% growth in Plant-Based Foods and Beverages and 18.7% growth in Fruit-Based Foods and Beverages.

The Plant-Based Foods and Beverages segment generated revenues of $135.5 million during the first quarter of 2022, an increase of 13.4% compared to $119.5 million in the first quarter of 2021. Growth continued to be driven by oat-based offerings, reflecting pricing and volume/mix factors, along with incremental revenue from Dream and WestSoy.

The Fruit-Based Foods and Beverages segment generated revenues of $104.7 million during the first quarter of 2022, an increase of 18.7% compared to $88.2 million in the first quarter of 2021. Growth was driven by pricing and favorable volume/mix stemming from strong demand for fruit snacks, and one-time incremental volumes this quarter from one of our large frozen fruit customers, and the recent introduction of fruit smoothie bowls.

Gross profit was $28.0 million for the first quarter, a decrease of $2.0 million compared to $30.0 million in the prior year period. As a percentage of revenues, gross profit margin was 11.7% in the first quarter of 2022 compared to 14.4% in the first quarter of 2021, a decrease of 270 basis points. Gross profit in the Plant-Based Foods and Beverages segment decreased $3.2 million. The 470-basis point decrease in Plant-Based gross margin included an approximately 150 basis-point decline due to the dilutive effect of pass-through pricing to recover cost inflation on raw and packaging material. The remaining gross margin impact reflected unrecovered raw material and freight cost inflation, due to the lag in pricing adjustments, together with higher labor and utility rates, and increased depreciation expense, partially offset by volume growth and improved plant utilization. Gross profit in the Fruit-Based Foods and Beverages segment increased by $1.2 million. Gross margin was flat at 7.7%, despite an approximately 100 basis-point decline due to the dilutive effect of pass-through pricing to recover cost inflation on raw and packaging material. Excluding this pricing effect, fruit-based gross margin reflected the benefits of portfolio rationalizations for frozen fruit and manufacturing cost savings from the consolidation of our fruit processing facilities in 2021, partially offset by currently unrecovered freight and storage cost inflation, a higher mix of low-margin fruit juice sales, and frozen fruit inventory losses due to excess spoilage during handling.

Segment operating income¹ was $3.9 million, or 1.6% of revenues in the first quarter of 2022, compared to segment operating income of $6.1 million, or 2.9% of revenues in the first quarter of 2021. The decrease in segment operating income was due to lower gross profit, and increased SG&A mainly due to a special one-time bonus accrual of $1.6 million to reward employees for improved performance this quarter in our plants, partially offset by a reduction in variable stock-based compensation as the performance condition under the 2021 incentive plan was not achieved.

Adjusted EBITDA¹ was $15.6 million or 6.5% of revenues in the first quarter of 2022, compared to $18.3 million or 8.8% of revenues in the first quarter of 2021.

Earnings attributable to common shareholders for the first quarter of 2022 was $3.5 million, or $0.03 per diluted common share, compared to a loss of $0.3 million, or $0.00 per diluted common share during the first quarter of 2021.

Adjusted earnings¹ in the first quarter of 2022 was $0.6 million or $0.01 per common share, compared to adjusted earnings of $1.3 million or $0.01 per common share in the first quarter of 2021.

Please refer to the discussion and table below under “Non-GAAP Measures”.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

As of April 2, 2022, SunOpta had total assets of $785.8 million and total debt of $249.7 million compared to total assets of $755.1 million and total debt of $224.6 million at year end, 2021. During the first quarter of 2022, cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations was $15.5 million compared to cash used in operating activities of continuing operations of $7.0 million during the first quarter of 2021. Investing activities from continuing operations consumed $24.5 million of cash during the first quarter of 2022 versus $7.9 million in the prior year, primarily driven by the new plant in Midlothian, Texas which is expected to come online in late 2022.

Consolidated revenue range: $890 million - $930 million

¹ See discussion of non-GAAP measures

2 The Company has included certain forward-looking statements about the future financial performance that include non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA. These non–GAAP financial measures are derived by excluding certain amounts, expenses or income, from the corresponding financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The determination of the amounts that are excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures is a matter of management judgment and depends upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts recognized in a given period. We are unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of the aforementioned forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures because management cannot reliably predict all of the necessary components of such GAAP measures. Historically, management has excluded the following items from certain of these non-GAAP measures, and such items may also be excluded in future periods and could be significant amounts.

  • Expenses related to the acquisition or divestiture of a business, including business development costs, impairment of assets, integration costs, severance, retention costs and transaction costs;
  • Start-up costs of new facilities and equipment;
  • Charges associated with restructuring and cost saving initiatives, including but not limited to asset impairments, accelerated depreciation, severance costs and lease abandonment charges;
  • Asset impairment charges and facility closure costs;
  • Legal settlements or awards; and
  • The tax effect of the above items.

Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company provides additional information about its operating results regarding segment operating income, adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), which are not measures in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company believes that segment operating income, adjusted earnings and adjusted EBITDA assist investors in comparing performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that management believes are not indicative of its operating performance. The non-GAAP measures of segment operating income, adjusted earnings and adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

In order to evaluate its results of operations, the Company uses certain other non-GAAP measures that it believes enhance an investor’s ability to derive meaningful period-over-period comparisons and trends from the results of operations. In particular, the Company excludes specific items from its reported results that due to their nature or size, it does not expect to occur as part of its normal business on a regular basis. These items are identified in the tables below. These non-GAAP measures are presented solely to allow investors to more fully assess the Company’s results of operations and should not be considered in isolation of, or as substitutes for, an analysis of the Company’s results as reported under U.S. GAAP.

Adjusted Earnings

When assessing its financial performance, the Company uses an internal measure that excludes charges and gains that it believes are not reflective of normal operations. This information is provided to allow investors to make meaningful comparisons of the Company’s operating performance between periods and to view the Company’s business from the same perspective as the Company’s management. Adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per diluted share should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The following is a tabular presentation of adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per diluted share, including a reconciliation from earnings from continuing operations, which the Company believes to be the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure.
