“The year is off to an excellent start, driven by strong first quarter operating and financial results,” stated Jeff Edwards, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “The 2017 first quarter is more in line with historical seasonal trends than we experienced in the first quarter of 2016, as our sales and margins are consistent with our expectations for a typical first quarter. As the year progresses, we expect this normal seasonality to continue, helping drive further improvements in sales and profitability.

“The 2017 first quarter also represents the first quarter contribution of the Alpha Insulation and Waterproofing acquisition, which we successfully closed and began integrating into our operations in January. Alpha has exceeded our initial expectations helping drive a significant increase in acquired revenues, while improving the company’s margins from acquired businesses. I am encouraged by the strong start to the year and expect 2017 will be another record year as we are positioned to achieve over $1.0 billion in revenues,” concluded Mr. Edwards.

First Quarter 2017 Results Overview

For the first quarter of 2017, net revenue was $255.7 million, an increase of 33.4% from $191.7 million in the first quarter of 2016. On a same branch basis, net revenue improved 8.7% from the prior year quarter, with approximately 54% of the increase attributable to growth in the number of completed jobs, and the remainder achieved through price gains and more favorable customer and product mix. During the last twelve months, same branch new residential sales have increased 11.4%, compared to growth in U.S. housing completions of 7.7%.

Gross profit improved 32.2% to $72.2 million from $54.6 million in the prior year quarter. Gross margin was 28.2% versus 28.5% in the prior year as a result of a return to a more normal seasonal mix of installation services. Selling, general and administrative expense, as a percentage of net revenue, was 20.8% compared to 21.7% in the prior year.

Net income was $6.4 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, compared to $5.8 million, or $0.19 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. Adjusted net income was $11.1 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, compared to $8.1 million, or $0.26 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. Adjusted net income adjusts for the impact of non-core items in both periods, and includes an addback for non-cash amortization expense related to acquisitions.

Adjusted EBITDA was $26.3 million, a 36.4% increase from $19.3 million in the prior year quarter, largely due to higher sales and operating leverage. Adjusted EBITDA, as a percentage of net revenue, increased 20 basis points to 10.3%, compared to 10.1% in the prior year quarter.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted Net Income measure performance by adjusting EBITDA and GAAP net income, respectively, for certain income or expense items that are not considered part of our core operations. We believe that the presentation of these measures provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations because it assists both investors and us in analyzing and benchmarking the performance and value of our business.

We believe the Adjusted EBITDA measure is useful to investors and us as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period as it measures our changes in pricing decisions, cost controls and other factors that impact operating performance, and removes the effect of our capital structure (primarily interest expense), asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization), items outside our control (primarily income taxes) and the volatility related to the timing and extent of other activities such as asset impairments and non-core income and expenses. Accordingly, we believe that this measure is useful for comparing general operating performance from period to period. In addition, we use various EBITDA-based measures in determining the achievement of awards under certain of our incentive compensation programs. Other companies may define Adjusted EBITDA differently and, as a result, our measure may not be directly comparable to measures of other companies. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA may be defined differently for purposes of covenants contained in our revolving credit facility or any future facility.

Although we use the Adjusted EBITDA measure to assess the performance of our business, the use of the measure is limited because it does not include certain material expenses, such as interest and taxes, necessary to operate our business. Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, GAAP net (loss) income as a measure of performance. Our presentation of this measure should not be construed as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. This measure has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because of these limitations, this measure is not intended as an alternative to net (loss) income as an indicator of our operating performance, as an alternative to any other measure of performance in conformity with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow (used in) provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity. You should therefore not place undue reliance on this measure or ratios calculated using this measure.

We also believe the Adjusted Net Income measure is useful to investors and us as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period as it measures our changes in pricing decisions, cost controls and other factors that impact operating performance, and removes the effect of certain non-core items such as discontinued operations, acquisition related expenses, amortization expense, the tax impact of these certain non-core items, and the volatility related to the timing and extent of other activities such as asset impairments and non-core income and expenses. To make the financial presentation more consistent with other public building products companies, beginning in the fourth quarter 2016 we included an addback for non-cash amortization expense related to acquisitions. Accordingly, we believe that this measure is useful for comparing general operating performance from period to period. Other companies may define Adjusted Net Income differently and, as a result, our measure may not be directly comparable to measures of other companies. In addition, Adjusted Net Income may be defined differently for purposes of covenants contained in our revolving credit facility or any future facility.
