Central Garden & Pet Announces Q2 Fiscal 2024 Financial Results

Fiscal 2024 Q2 net sales of $900 million compared to $909 million a year ago

Fiscal 2024 Q2 GAAP EPS of $0.93 vs. $0.72 a year ago, Non-GAAP EPS of $0.99

Maintains outlook for fiscal 2024 non-GAAP EPS of $2.00 or better ($2.50 or better before the February 2024 stock dividend)

Central Garden & Pet Company (NASDAQ: CENT) (NASDAQ: CENTA) (“Central”), a market leader in the Pet and Garden industries, today announced financial results for its fiscal 2024 second quarter ended March 30, 2024.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20240508389740/en/

“We delivered a solid second quarter with earnings per share well ahead of prior year. We are particularly pleased with the progress on our Cost and Simplicity program,” said Beth Springer, Interim CEO of Central Garden & Pet. “With a large part of the garden season still in front of us and some continuing external challenges, we are maintaining our outlook for the fiscal year. Importantly, our teams remain focused on executing our long-term strategy.”

Fiscal 2024 Second Quarter Financial Results

Net sales were $900 million compared to $909 million a year ago, a decrease of 1%. Organic net sales also decreased 1%.

Gross profit was $279 million compared to $260 million in the prior year. Non-GAAP gross profit was $281 million. Gross margin increased 240 basis points to 31.0% compared to 28.6%. Non-GAAP gross margin was 31.3%. Both segments benefited from prior year projects made under Central's Cost and Simplicity program including the sale of the independent garden channel distribution business and exit of some private label pet bed product lines, as well as moderating inflation.

Operating income was $93 million compared to $78 million a year ago, an increase of 20%. On a non-GAAP basis, operating income was $99 million. Operating margin increased 180 basis points to 10.4% compared to 8.6%. On a non-GAAP basis, operating margin was 11.0%. The increase was driven by improved gross margin.

Net interest expense was $11 million compared to $15 million a year ago driven by higher interest income from higher cash balances and higher interest rates.

Net income was $62 million compared to $48 million a year ago, an increase of 29%. On a non-GAAP basis, net income was $66 million. Earnings per share were $0.93 compared to $0.72, an increase of $0.21. On a non-GAAP basis, earnings per share were $0.99. Adjusted EBITDA was $124 million compared to $107 million a year ago.

The effective tax rate was 23.4% compared to 23.9% in the prior year.

Pet Segment Fiscal 2024 Second Quarter Results

Net sales for the Pet segment were $480 million compared to $475 million in the prior year, an increase of 1% driven by growth in Consumables businesses and the recent TDBBS acquisition. Organic net sales decreased 3% excluding the impact of TDBBS.

Pet segment operating income was $63 million compared to $55 million a year ago, an increase of 13%. Operating margin increased 140 basis points to 13.0% compared to 11.6% driven by improved gross margin. Pet segment adjusted EBITDA was $74 million compared to $66 million in the prior year.

Garden Segment Fiscal 2024 Second Quarter Results

Net sales for the Garden segment were $420 million compared to $434 million a year ago, a decrease of 3%. Organic net sales increased 2% excluding the impact of the sale of the independent garden channel distribution business. Growth in Live Plants, Grass Seed and Controls & Fertilizer more than offset lower sales in Wild Bird.

Garden segment operating income was $57 million compared to $50 million in the prior year, an increase of 15%. On a non-GAAP basis, operating income was $62 million. Operating margin increased 220 basis point to 13.6% compared to 11.4%. On a non-GAAP basis, operating margin was 14.8%. The increase was driven by improved gross margin. Garden segment adjusted EBITDA was $73 million compared to $60 million a year ago.

Liquidity and Debt

The cash balance at the end of the quarter was $301 million compared to $61 million a year ago, driven by a reduction in inventory due to converting inventory to cash over the last 12 months.

Cash used by operations during the quarter was $25 million compared to $34 million a year ago.

Total debt as of March 30, 2024, and March 25, 2023 was $1.2 billion. The leverage ratio, as defined in Central's credit agreement, at the end of the second quarter was 2.9x compared to 3.3x at the end of the prior year quarter.

Cost and Simplicity Program

Central continues to advance its multi-year Cost and Simplicity program consisting of a pipeline of projects across procurement, manufacturing, logistics, portfolio management and administrative costs to simplify its business and improve efficiency across the organization.

In the second quarter of fiscal 2024, Central initiated the closure of a manufacturing facility in Chico, CA, and began the Southeast consolidation of four distribution locations into one modern facility. As a result, Central incurred $5.3 million of one-time costs, including $2.5 million in cost of goods sold and $2.8 million in selling, general and administrative costs, the majority of which were non-cash.

Fiscal 2024 Guidance

Central continues to expect fiscal 2024 non-GAAP EPS to be $2.00 or better ($2.50 or better before the February 2024 stock dividend).

This outlook reflects uncertain consumer demand and retailer dynamics and an environment of macroeconomic and geopolitical volatility. It includes modest carryover pricing actions to help mitigate inflationary headwinds. This outlook excludes the impact of any acquisitions, divestitures or restructuring activities that may occur during fiscal 2024, including any projects under the Cost and Simplicity program and the recent TDBBS acquisition. Central expects fiscal 2024 capital spending to be approximately $70 million.

Conference Call

Central's senior management will hold a conference call today at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time (1:30 p.m. Pacific Time) to discuss its fiscal 2024 second quarter results and provide a general business update. The conference call and related materials can be accessed at http://ir.central.com.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We report our financial results in accordance with GAAP. However, to supplement the financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, we use non-GAAP financial measures including non-GAAP net income and diluted net income per share, non-GAAP operating income, adjusted EBITDA and organic net sales. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the impact of specific items (described below) in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating our performance. Also, Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful to investors in their assessment of our ongoing operating performance and provide additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. While Management believes that non-GAAP measures are useful supplemental information, such adjusted results are not intended to replace our GAAP financial results and should be read in conjunction with those GAAP results.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined by us as income before income tax, net other expense, net interest expense and depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation expense (or operating income plus depreciation and amortization expense and stock-based compensation expense). Adjusted EBITDA further excludes one-time charges related to facility closures. We present adjusted EBITDA because we believe that adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure in evaluating the cash flows and performance of our business and provides greater transparency into our results of operations. Adjusted EBITDA is used by our management to perform such evaluations. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for cash flow from operations, income from operations or other income statement measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. We believe that adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by investors, securities analysts and other interested parties in their evaluation of companies, many of which present adjusted EBITDA when reporting their results. Other companies may calculate adjusted EBITDA differently and it may not be comparable.

The reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are shown in the tables below.

Non-GAAP financial measures reflect adjustments based on the following items:

  • Facility closures: we have excluded the impact of the closure of our garden controls manufacturing facility in Chico, California and the Southeast consolidation of our distribution facilities as they represent infrequent transactions that occur in limited circumstances that impact the comparability between operating periods. We believe the adjustment of closure and network optimization costs supplements the GAAP information with a measure that may be used to assess the sustainability of our operating performance.

From time to time in the future, there may be other items that we may exclude if we believe that doing so is consistent with the goal of providing useful information to investors and management.

(1)

During the second quarter of fiscal 2024, we recognized incremental expense of $5.3 million in the consolidated statement of operations, from the closure of a manufacturing facility in Chico, California and the consolidation of our Southeast distribution network.
