“During our third quarter, we delivered solid results through July and August, with sales up 5 percent compared to the same two-month period last year. Additionally, our adjusted EBITDA margin during this period was approximately 19.3 percent, compared to 17.9 percent during our second quarter of this year,” commented Rod Hershberger, CEO of PGT Innovations. “We ended the quarter with sales of $127 million, down 2 percent compared to prior year, due to the first major hurricane to hit our market in 12 years.”
“On September 10th, Hurricane Irma, a Category 4 storm with sustained 130-mph winds, made landfall in the Florida Keys, one of our primary markets,” Hershberger stated. “Impacts from this 400-mile-wide storm were felt over the entire state of Florida, which represents 90 percent of our consolidated sales.”
“We estimate Hurricane Irma caused an unfavorable sales impact of approximately $13 million to our 2017 third quarter and added $1.1 million in operating costs, which included our community outreach efforts to help those affected by the storm in the local area,” Hershberger continued. “While the storm was severe, we are thankful none of our team members were hurt, and there was minimal damage to our facilities. I am incredibly proud of how our over 2,800 team members at our facilities in Miami, Venice, and Orlando, who serve our vast network of over 1,300 dealers, responded to such an intense weather event. It is a testament to our culture and a wonderful example of how we can rise above great challenges.”
“We believe that absent the storm, we would have set another company record for sales in the third quarter as we were tracking with solid performance,” stated Jeff Jackson, President of PGT Innovations. “As Irma advanced towards Florida, daily order levels began to decrease, dropping by as much as 50 percent as many customers suspended operations. At our facilities, we were forced to cease operations for a period of up to six days in certain locations, during which we did not ship or produce any products.”
“While the first two weeks of October showed continued signs of Hurricane Irma’s impact, stronger order levels in the second half of October resulted in sales for the month of $41.5 million, up 12 percent over October 2016, producing an approximately 18.0 percent EBITDA margin, compared to 15.3 percent in October 2016,” Jackson continued. “Additionally, our customers have confirmed a sustained increase in call volume while they work to return to normal operations post-storm.”
“This hurricane season has certainly heightened awareness for consumers that have never experienced a hurricane and has invigorated new conversation within our communities about being better prepared for these types of storms,” Jackson added. “As leaders in the industry, we know how critical impact-resistant products are to ensure the safety of people and property during severe weather, and we plan to make additional advertising investments in the fourth quarter, and into 2018, to be on the forefront of that renewed awareness to help better educate consumers and builders.”
“For more than 30 years, PGT Innovations has dedicated countless resources into the research and development of technologically-advanced products that can withstand some of the toughest conditions on earth, and early reports are showing that our products performed extremely well,” Jackson stated. “As 2018 approaches, we are well positioned for another solid year. We have a strong backlog, and housing market conditions remain favorable throughout all our markets. We will continue to focus on increasing profitability while growing our market share and investing in advertising to capture increased demand generated by this storm season.”
Fiscal Year 2017 Outlook
The Company estimates 2017 third-quarter sales were negatively impacted by approximately $13 million due to Hurricane Irma, some of which is expected to be recovered in the 2017 fourth quarter, with the remainder falling into 2018. For the full year 2017, the Company expects to finish within the previous guidance range for consolidated sales of $490 to $500 million, and is revising the adjusted EBITDA range estimate to be $80 to $84 million due to additional SG&A investments in support of growth initiatives associated with awareness for impact-resistant products generated by the 2017 Hurricane season.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This Press Release and the financial schedules include financial measures and terms not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). We believe that presentation of non-GAAP measures such as adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA provides investors and analysts with an alternative method for assessing our operating results in a manner that enables investors and analysts to more thoroughly evaluate our current performance compared to past performance. We also believe these non-GAAP measures provide investors with a better baseline for assessing our future earnings potential. The non-GAAP measures included in this release are provided to give investors access to types of measures that we use in analyzing our results.
Adjusted net income consists of GAAP net income adjusted for the items included in the accompanying reconciliation. Adjusted net income per share consists of GAAP net income per share adjusted for the items included in the accompanying reconciliation. We believe these measures enable investors and analysts to more thoroughly evaluate our current performance as compared to the past performance and provide a better baseline for assessing the Company's future earnings potential. However, these measures do not provide a complete picture of our operations.
EBITDA consists of GAAP net income adjusted for the items included in the accompanying reconciliation. Adjusted EBITDA consists of EBITDA adjusted for the items included in the accompanying reconciliation. We believe that EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to investors and analysts about the Company's performance because they eliminate the effects of period-to-period changes in taxes, costs associated with capital investments and interest expense. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA do not give effect to the cash the Company must use to service its debt or pay its income taxes and thus do not reflect the funds generated from operations or actually available for capital investments.
Our calculations of adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are not necessarily comparable to calculations performed by other companies and reported as similarly titled measures. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP measures. Schedules that reconcile adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net income are included in the financial schedules accompanying this release.

(1) The Company's non-GAAP financial measures were explained in its Form 8-K filed November 2, 2017.
(2) Effective on January 1, 2017, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board ASU No. 2016-09, "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting" (ASU 2016-09). ASU 2016-09 changes the accounting for excess tax benefits by requiring that they be treated as discrete items of income tax expense in the period they occur. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, income tax expense has been reduced by $347 thousand and $1.1 million, respectively, relating to excess tax benefits on the exercise of stock options and the lapse of restrictions on stock awards. ASU 2016-09 also changed the treasury stock method of calculating diluted shares outstanding to exclude the presumption that common stock equivalents can be reduced by repurchasing shares using excess tax benefits. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, diluted shares outstanding includes 724 thousand and 724 thousand shares, respectively, that prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-09 would have been presumed to be bought-back with the proceeds of excess tax benefits, and therefore not outstanding. For the three and nine months ended October 1, 2016, diluted shares outstanding would have increased by 826 thousand and 827 thousand shares, respectively, if we had adopted ASU 2016-09 at the beginning of our 2016 fiscal year.

(4) In 2017, represents costs associated with planned changes in our management structure in the first quarter of 2017, directed towards maximizing the effectiveness and efficiency of the Company's leadership team, classified within selling, general and administrative expenses in the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

(6) Represents non-cash charges relating to write-offs of deferred lenders fees and discount relating to voluntary prepayments of borrowings outstanding under the term loan portion of the 2016 Credit Agreement totaling $20.0 million made during the 2017 third quarter, included in interest expense, net, in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017.
(7) Represents costs incurred in January and February 2017 associated with the start-up of our second Thermal Plastic Spacer system insulated glass line, all of which is classified within cost of sales in the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
(8) Represents fair value adjustment resulting in the reversal of the liability for the earn-out contingency of $3 million established in the acquisition of WinDoor on February 16, 2016.
(9) Represents costs and expenses relating to our February 16, 2016, acquisition of WinDoor, Inc., and simultaneous refinancing of our then existing credit facility into the 2016 Credit Agreement, as well as a minor acquisition completed in the 2016 third quarter. Of the $4.6 million, $3.4 million represents a non-cash charge relating to and classified as debt extinguishment costs for the nine months ended October 1, 2016, and $902 thousand represents transaction- and refinancing-related costs and expenses classified within selling, general and administrative expenses. Costs of $299 thousand in the three and nine months ended October 1, 2016, were included in selling, general and administrative expenses.
