SpartanNash Announces Third Quarter 2019 Financial Results

Third Quarter Net Sales Increased 6.0%, Including Positive Retail Comparable Store Sales

Profitability Consistent with Company Guidance

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich.--()--SpartanNash Company (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: SPTN) today reported financial results for the 12-week third quarter and 40-week period ended October 5, 2019.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2019 Highlights

  • Net sales growth of 6.0%, to $2.00 billion from $1.89 billion in the prior year quarter
  • Retail comparable store sales increased 0.1%
  • EPS of $(0.01) per share; Adjusted EPS of $0.30, including $0.08 in CEO transition and supplemental incentive program costs (“Transition Costs”), which were specifically excluded from August 14, 2019 guidance
  • The Company reaffirms full year guidance; quantifies previously excluded Transition Costs

“We are encouraged to have delivered third quarter profitability and sales growth in-line with the guidance we provided in August,” said Dennis Eidson, Interim President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our results were driven by a solid increase in net sales, representing our fourteenth consecutive quarter of growth and we are pleased with the return to positive retail comparable store sales. Our team is focused on driving improvements in operational execution and positioning the Company to realize profitable growth as we deliver value to our shareholders.”

Consolidated Financial Results

Consolidated net sales for the third quarter increased $113.1 million, or 6.0%, to $2.00 billion from $1.89 billion in the prior year quarter. The increase in net sales was generated through incremental volume resulting from the acquisition of Martin’s Super Markets (“Martins”) as well as higher sales within the Food Distribution segment, prior to the elimination of the intercompany sales for the acquired business.

Gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2019 was $290.4 million, or 14.5% of net sales, compared to $256.1 million, or 13.6% of net sales, in the prior year quarter. The growth in gross profit and improvement as a percent of net sales was primarily driven by the acquisition of Martin’s and the resulting higher mix of Retail sales.

Reported operating expenses for the third quarter were $274.6 million, or 13.7% of net sales, compared to $229.3 million, or 12.2% of net sales, in the prior year quarter. The increase in expenses as a rate of sales compared to the prior year quarter was due to additional Retail segment business associated with Martin’s and, to a lesser extent, an increase in administrative expenses, primarily related to Transition Costs, and incremental supply chain costs. Third quarter operating expenses would have been $272.3 million, or 13.6% of net sales, compared to $228.3 million, or 12.1% of net sales, in the prior year quarter, excluding the asset impairment charges and other adjustments detailed in Table 3.

The Company reported operating earnings of $15.8 million compared to $26.8 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily attributable to higher administrative expenses and supply chain costs, partially offset by incremental earnings from the newly acquired Martin’s business and growth in the Food Distribution segment. Adjusted operating earnings(1) were $20.3 million compared to $27.8 million in the prior year and were adjusted for Fresh Kitchen operating losses subsequent to the decision to exit the business at the end of the second quarter. The decrease in adjusted operating earnings was due to the factors mentioned above, partially offset by the adjustment of Fresh Kitchen operating losses. Please see the financial tables at the end of this press release for a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable measure, prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

The Company reported a third quarter loss from continuing operations of $0.3 million, or $0.01 per share, compared to earnings of $17.5 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, in the prior year quarter. The decrease reflects $7.7 million in expense associated with the previously announced termination of the Company’s corporate pension plan as well as the operating earnings changes noted above.

Adjusted earnings from continuing operations(3) for the third quarter were $10.9 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, and include $2.9 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, in Transition Costs which were specifically excluded from the guidance provided on August 14, 2019. Adjusted earnings from continuing operations in the prior year quarter were $17.9 million, or $0.50 per diluted share. A reconciliation of reported earnings from continuing operations to adjusted earnings from continuing operations is included at Table 4.

Adjusted EBITDA(2) was $41.6 million compared to $48.3 million in the prior year quarter due to the factors mentioned above.

Segment Financial Results

Food Distribution

Net sales for Food Distribution decreased $1.2 million, or 0.1%, to $939.0 million from $940.2 million in the prior year quarter. Excluding the impact of the elimination of intercompany sales to Martin’s subsequent to the acquisition, sales increased 3.6%, primarily due to sales growth with existing customers.

Reported operating earnings for Food Distribution were $11.7 million compared to $19.8 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease in reported operating earnings was due to higher corporate administrative expenses, including Transition Costs, as well as supply chain costs, partially offset by contributions from sales growth. Third quarter adjusted operating earnings(1) were $15.5 million compared to $20.4 million in the prior year quarter primarily due to the same items. Adjusted operating earnings exclude Fresh Kitchen operating losses subsequent to the decision to exit the business and asset impairment charges in the current year quarter, and merger/acquisition and integration expenses in the prior year quarter.

Military Distribution

Net sales for Military Distribution decreased $1.0 million, or 0.2%, to $499.2 million from $500.2 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was due to lower comparable sales at DeCA operated locations partially offset by incremental volume from new business with an existing customer that commenced late in the fourth quarter of 2018 and the continued expansion of DeCA’s private brand program.

Reported operating loss for Military Distribution was $2.6 million compared to operating earnings of $1.5 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily attributable to higher supply chain costs and corporate administrative expenses. The third quarter adjusted operating loss(1) was $2.5 million compared to earnings of $1.6 million in the prior year quarter.

Retail

Net sales for Retail increased $115.3 million, or 25.8%, to $561.6 million from $446.3 million in the prior year quarter. Comparable store sales were positive at 0.1%, however were offset by a decrease in fuel sales primarily due to a lower price per gallon.

Reported operating earnings for Retail were $6.7 million compared to operating earnings of $5.5 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in reported operating earnings was primarily attributable to the contribution of the acquired Martin’s stores, the favorable impact of closing underperforming stores and improvements in margin rates, partially offset by higher corporate administrative expenses, including Transition Costs. Adjusted operating earnings(1) were $7.3 million compared to $5.9 million in the prior year quarter and exclude restructuring charges in both periods.

Cash Flow

Cash flows provided by operating activities for the 40 weeks ended October 5, 2019 were $140.0 million, materially consistent with the 40 weeks ended October 6, 2018 at $142.5 million. The Company generated $93.1 million in free cash flow(5) over the same period in the current year and $89.9 million in the prior year.

During the first three quarters of fiscal 2019, the Company returned $20.7 million to shareholders in the form of cash dividends equal to $0.57 per common share.

Strategic Business Objectives

The following are key updates to the Company’s progress towards its strategic business objectives during the third quarter of 2019:

  • Sustained mid-single digit sales growth in the third quarter, realizing 6.0% net sales growth from the same quarter in the prior year and delivering its 14th consecutive quarter of net sales growth.
  • Continued to implement Project One Team initiatives and remains on track to achieve a run rate of over $20.0 million in annual cost savings by April 20, 2021.
  • Continued to reduce both working capital and debt compared to the prior year, despite sustaining net sales growth and the acquisition of Martin’s in early 2019.

Outlook

The Company is reaffirming its net sales and profitability outlook previously provided on August 14, 2019, and has now estimated Transition Costs which were not previously quantified. These costs are expected to range from $9.0 to $9.7 million in adjusted EBITDA(2) and $6.6 to $7.1 million in adjusted earnings from continuing operations(3), or $0.18 to $0.20 per diluted share.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, the Company also provides information regarding Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“adjusted EBITDA”), adjusted operating earnings, adjusted earnings from continuing operations, total net long-term debt, free cash flow and projected adjusted earnings per diluted share from continuing operations. These are non-GAAP financial measures, as defined below, and are used by management to allocate resources, assess performance against its peers and evaluate overall performance. The Company believes these measures provide useful information for both management and its investors. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors because they provide additional understanding of the trends and special circumstances that affect its business. These measures provide useful supplemental information that helps investors to establish a basis for expected performance and the ability to evaluate actual results against that expectation. The measures, when considered in connection with GAAP results, can be used to assess the overall performance of the Company as well as assess the Company’s performance against its peers. These measures are also used as a basis for certain compensation programs sponsored by the Company. In addition, securities analysts, fund managers and other shareholders and stakeholders that communicate with the Company request its financial results in these adjusted formats.

Current year adjusted operating earnings, adjusted earnings from continuing operations, and adjusted EBITDA exclude “Fresh Kitchen operating losses” subsequent to the decision to exit these operations at the beginning of the third quarter, costs associated with organizational realignment, which include significant changes to the Company’s management team, and fees paid to a third-party advisory firm associated with Project One Team, the Company’s initiative to drive growth while increasing efficiency and reducing costs. Pension termination costs, primarily related to non-operating settlement expense associated with the distribution of pension assets, are excluded from adjusted earnings from continuing operations, and to a lesser extent adjusted operating earnings. These items are considered “non-operational” or “non-core” in nature. Prior year adjusted operating earnings, adjusted earnings from continuing operations, and adjusted EBITDA exclude start-up costs associated with the Fresh Kitchen operation, which concluded during the first quarter of 2018. The Fresh Kitchen represented a new line of business for the Company.

Notes: Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP operating financial measure that the Company defines as net earnings plus interest, discontinued operations, depreciation and amortization, and other non-cash items including deferred (stock) compensation, the LIFO provision, as well as adjustments for items that do not reflect the ongoing operating activities of the Company and costs associated with the closing of operational locations.

Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA by segment are not measures of performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and should not be considered as a substitute for net earnings, cash flows from operating activities and other income or cash flow statement data. The Company’s definitions of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA by segment may not be identical to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

(a)

The income tax effect on adjustments is computed by applying the applicable tax rate to the adjustments.

(b)

Includes a $1.1 million tax benefit attributable to tax planning strategies related to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

Notes: Adjusted earnings from continuing operations is a non-GAAP operating financial measure that the Company defines as earnings from continuing operations plus or minus adjustments for items that do not reflect the ongoing operating activities of the Company and costs associated with the closing of operational locations.

Adjusted earnings from continuing operations is not a measure of performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and should not be considered as a substitute for net earnings, cash flows from operating activities and other income or cash flow statement data. The Company’s definition of adjusted earnings from continuing operations may not be identical to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Notes: Total net debt is a non-GAAP financial measure that is defined as long-term debt and capital lease obligations plus current maturities of long-term debt and capital lease obligations less cash and cash equivalents. The Company believes both management and its investors find the information useful because it reflects the amount of long-term debt obligations that are not covered by available cash and temporary investments. Total net debt is not a substitute for GAAP financial measures and may differ from similarly titled measures of other companies.

Notes: Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated by subtracting capital expenditures from cash flows provided by operating activities, the most directly comparable GAAP measure. The Company believes it is a useful indicator of liquidity that provides information to both management and investors about the amount of cash generated from operations that, after capital expenditures, can be used for strategic business objectives, including the repayment of long-term debt. Free cash flow is not a substitute for GAAP financial measures and may differ from similarly titled measures of other companies.
