SiteOne Landscape Supply Announces First Quarter 2024 Earnings

  • Net sales increased 8% to $904.8 million
  • Organic Daily Sales increased 1%
  • Gross profit increased 5% to $301.2 million; gross margin contracted 100 basis points to 33.3%
  • SG&A as a percentage of Net sales increased 140 basis points to 36.2%
  • Net loss of $19.3 million, compared to Net loss of $4.5 million in the prior year period
  • Adjusted EBITDA decreased 47% to $21.1 million; Adjusted EBITDA margin was 2.3%
  • Operating cash flow improved by $53.3 million

Post-Quarter Highlights

  • Closed two acquisitions: Eggemeyer and a 75% interest in Devil Mountain Wholesale Nursey

SiteOne Landscape Supply, Inc. (the “Company” or “SiteOne”) (NYSE: SITE) announced earnings for its first quarter ended March 31, 2024 (“First Quarter 2024”).

“During the first quarter of 2024 we experienced continued significant commodity pricing deflation which dampened our near-term results. Against this headwind we were pleased to achieve positive Organic Daily Sales growth, good Net sales growth, and improved operating cash flow for the quarter,” said Doug Black, SiteOne Chairman and CEO. “We were also pleased to add two more companies to our family in April including Devil Mountain Nursery, a terrific new nursery platform for growth in the West. We believe that end-market demand is solid across most of our product lines, and we are confident in our ability to outperform the market and achieve positive volume growth through our commercial and operational initiatives. Our acquisition pipeline remains very active, and we continue to leverage our exceptional teams, market leadership position, and strong balance sheet to further build our company and execute our long-term strategy for performance and growth.”

First Quarter 2024 Results

Net sales for the First Quarter 2024 increased to $904.8 million, or 8%, compared to $837.4 million for the prior-year period. Organic Daily Sales increased 1% compared to the prior year period due to solid demand, partially offset by price deflation for commodity products. Acquisitions contributed $62.5 million, or 7%, to Net sales growth for the quarter.

Gross profit increased 5% to $301.2 million for the First Quarter 2024 compared to $287.1 million for the prior-year period. Gross margin decreased 100 basis points to 33.3% for the First Quarter 2024 primarily due to lower price realization, partially offset by a positive impact from acquisitions.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) for the First Quarter 2024 increased to $327.7 million from $291.4 million for the prior-year period. SG&A as a percentage of Net sales increased 140 basis points to 36.2% due primarily to the impact of acquisitions.

Net loss for the First Quarter 2024 was $19.3 million, compared to a Net loss of $4.5 million for the same period in the prior year, as higher Net sales were offset by lower gross margin and higher SG&A expense. Adjusted EBITDA decreased 47% to $21.1 million for the First Quarter 2024, compared to $39.8 million for the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased 250 basis points to 2.3%.

Net debt, calculated as long-term debt (net of issuance costs and discounts) plus finance leases, net of cash and cash equivalents on our balance sheet as of March 31, 2024, was $508.0 million compared to $586.1 million as of April 2, 2023. Net debt to Adjusted EBITDA for the last twelve months was 1.3 times which was unchanged compared to the prior year period.

Outlook

“We have seen commodity price deflation continue through April and expect it to persist into the third quarter. For the full year 2024 we expect prices to be down approximately 2%, which is at the high end of our initial 1% to 2% range,” Doug Black continued. “In total, end market demand has been solid, and with the benefit of our commercial initiatives, we continue to expect sales volume to more than offset price deflation, yielding low single digit Organic Daily Sales growth for the full year 2024. With the benefit of our operational initiatives, SG&A management, and contribution from our acquisitions, we expect to increase adjusted EBITDA margin during the year.”

For Fiscal 2024, we continue to expect our Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $420 million to $455 million, which is unchanged from our previous guidance. Our guidance does not include any contributions from unannounced acquisitions.

Reconciliation for the forward-looking full-year 2024 Adjusted EBITDA outlook is not being provided, as the Company does not currently have sufficient data to accurately estimate the variables and individual adjustments for such reconciliation.

Forward-Looking Statements

This release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may include, but are not limited to, statements relating to our 2024 Adjusted EBITDA outlook and our share repurchase program. Some of the forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of terms such as “may,” “intend,” “might,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “expect,” “believe,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “predict,” “project,” “potential,” or the negative of these terms, and similar expressions. You should be aware that these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that are beyond our control. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which it is made or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances. New factors emerge from time to time that may cause our business not to develop as we expect, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: cyclicality in residential and commercial construction markets; general business, financial market, and economic conditions; seasonality of our business and its impact on demand for our products; weather and climate conditions; prices for the products we purchase may fluctuate; market variables, including inflation and elevated interest rates for prolonged periods; increases in operating costs; public perceptions that our products and services are not environmentally friendly or that our practices are not sustainable; climate, environmental, health and safety laws and regulations; hazardous materials and related materials, laws and government regulations applicable to our business that could negatively impact demand for our products; competitive industry pressures, including competition for our talent base; supply chain disruptions, product or labor shortages, and the loss of key suppliers; inventory management risks; ability to implement our business strategies and achieve our growth objectives; acquisition and integration risks, including increased competition for acquisitions; risks associated with our large labor force and our customers’ labor force and labor market disruptions; retention of key personnel; construction defect and product liability claims; impairment of goodwill; adverse credit and financial markets events and conditions; inefficient or ineffective allocation of capital; credit sale risks; performance of individual branches; cybersecurity incidents involving our systems or third-party systems; failure or malfunctions in our information technology systems; security of personal information about our customers; intellectual property and other proprietary rights; unanticipated changes in our tax provisions; threats from terrorism, violence, uncertain political conditions, and geopolitical conflicts such as the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine; the conflict in the Gaza Strip, and unrest in the Middle East; risks related to our current indebtedness and our ability to obtain financing in the future; financial institution disruptions; risks related to our common stock; and other risks, as described in Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, as may be updated by subsequent filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including Forms 10-Q and 8-K.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

This release includes certain financial information, not prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Because not all companies calculate non-GAAP financial information identically (or at all), the presentations herein may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. Further, these measures should not be considered substitutes for the information contained in the historical financial information of the Company prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP that is set forth herein.

We present Adjusted EBITDA in order to evaluate the operating performance and efficiency of our business. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA as further adjusted for items permitted under the covenants of our credit facilities. EBITDA represents our Net income (loss) plus the sum of income tax (benefit) expense, interest expense, net of interest income, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA as further adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, (gain) loss on sale of assets and termination of finance leases not in the ordinary course of business, financing fees as well as other fees and expenses related to acquisitions, and other non-recurring (income) loss. Adjusted EBITDA does not include pre-acquisition acquired Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of our liquidity or financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to Net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. The use of Adjusted EBITDA instead of Net income has limitations as an analytical tool. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Net debt is defined as long-term debt (net of issuance costs and discounts) plus finance leases, net of cash and cash-equivalents on our balance sheet. Leverage Ratio is defined as Net debt to trailing twelve months Adjusted EBITDA. Free Cash Flow is defined as Cash Flow from Operating Activities, less capital expenditures. We define Organic Daily Sales as Organic Sales divided by the number of Selling Days in the relevant reporting period. We define Organic Sales as Net sales, including Net sales from newly-opened greenfield branches, but excluding Net sales from acquired branches until they have been under our ownership for at least four full fiscal quarters at the start of the fiscal year. Selling Days are the number of business days, excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays, that SiteOne branches are open during the relevant reporting period.
