ATLANTA, March 15, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BMC Stock Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq:STCK) (“BMC Stock” or the “Company”), a diversified lumber and building materials distributor and solutions provider that sells primarily to new construction and remodeling contractors, today reported its financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2015.
Merger Integration and Organizational Update
On December 1, 2015, Stock Building Supply Holdings, Inc. (“SBS”) completed its merger transaction (the “Merger”) with Building Material Holdings Corporation (“BMC”). Since that date, the Company has been diligently executing its integration plan.
“Our integration process is on target as we have taken decisive actions toward combining two best-in-class teams,” said Peter Alexander, President and Chief Executive Officer of BMC Stock. “We moved quickly to establish a lean organizational structure with talent from both legacy businesses. As a result of our efforts, we secured approximately $10 million of annual cost synergies in the first month after the closing of the Merger and have increased our anticipated annual run-rate of cost synergies to $40 - $50 million by the fourth quarter of 2017.”
Mr. Alexander continued, “We also expect to realize meaningful revenue growth as we roll out our unique capabilities, such as best-in-class millwork manufacturing, Ready-Frame® structural framing products and our eBusiness tools, across the combined branch network. As we look forward in 2016, we are focused on key priorities, including: growing our scale and expanding the products and services we offer in each of our local markets; extending our footprint in existing and new geographies and improving customer service, productivity and operational excellence as our business grows. We are well-positioned to capitalize on expansion opportunities in our industry and drive profitable growth.”
2015 Fourth Quarter and Full Year Results - Basis of Presentation
The Merger was accounted for as a “reverse acquisition” under the acquisition method of accounting, with SBS treated as the legal acquirer and BMC treated as the acquirer for accounting purposes. As such, the Company has accounted for the Merger by using BMC historical information and accounting policies and adding the assets and liabilities of SBS as of the completion date of the Merger at their estimated fair values. The Company’s fourth quarter and full year 2015 results include SBS’s operations from the date of the Merger through December 31, 2015 (the “stub” period), which contributed $103.6 million of net sales. As a result, current year results reported pursuant to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) are not comparable to prior periods.
For informational purposes only, the Company has furnished Adjusted financial information for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. The Adjusted financial information combines the historical results of BMC Stock for the fourth quarter of 2015 and 2014 with the pre-Merger results of SBS for October 1, 2015 through November 30, 2015 and the fourth quarter of 2014, respectively. The Adjusted financial information has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP, and is based upon currently available information and assumptions deemed appropriate by the Company’s management. This Adjusted financial information is not necessarily indicative of what the Company’s results actually would have been had the Merger been completed as of October 1, 2015 or October 1, 2014. In addition, this Adjusted financial information is not indicative of future results or current financial conditions and does not reflect any anticipated synergies, operating efficiencies, cost savings or integration costs that may result from the Merger. All Adjusted financial information should be read in conjunction with separate historical financial statements and accompanying notes filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). A reconciliation of Adjusted financial measures to GAAP financial measures is provided in the “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures” section of the press release.
2015 Fourth Quarter Financial Highlights
- Net sales increased 63.6% to $510.2 million, compared to the fourth quarter of 2014
- Adjusted net sales of $727.8 million, up 15.7%, including 9.8% organic volume growth, compared to the fourth quarter of 2014
- Net loss of $7.4 million, or $(0.16) per diluted share, including Merger-related charges of $19.0 million, compared to net income of $4.0 million, or $0.10 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2014
- Adjusted net income of $11.4 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, compared to Adjusted net income of $8.9 million, or $0.13 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2014
- Adjusted EBITDA of $37.8 million, up 32.7%, compared to $28.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2014
- Adjusted net debt declined to $437.5 million at December 31, 2015 as compared to Adjusted net debt of $455.5 million at September 30, 2015
Jim Major, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of BMC Stock, stated “Fourth quarter financial performance continued to demonstrate our profitable growth momentum. Higher relative sales growth in our structural components and millwork, doors and windows product categories, combined with operating expense discipline, and the previously announced acquisitions of VNS Corporation and Robert Bowden, Inc. drove Adjusted EBITDA growth of over 32%, to 5.2% of Adjusted net sales, compared to 4.5% of Adjusted net sales in the fourth quarter of 2014. We also posted a strong quarter of cash flow generation, allowing us to reduce Adjusted net debt by $18.0 million. Following the completion of our Merger, we believe we are uniquely positioned to invest strategically in our business to drive further sales growth and expansion of operating profit.”
Reported GAAP Results
Net sales in the fourth quarter of 2015 increased 63.6% to $510.2 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2014. Net sales were $1.58 billion for the full year 2015, an increase of 20.2%, compared to the prior year.
For the fourth quarter of 2015, BMC Stock reported an operating loss of $13.2 million compared to operating income of $11.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2014, and a net loss of $7.4 million, or $(0.16) per diluted share, compared to net income of $4.0 million, or $0.10 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2014. Fourth quarter 2015 results included approximately $19.0 million in Merger-related costs, $10.3 million in inventory step-up charges and $0.1 million in restructuring and other acquisition costs.
For the full year 2015, BMC Stock reported operating income of $12.2 million compared to operating income of $54.1 million for the full year 2014, and a net loss of $4.8 million, or $(0.12) per diluted share, compared to net income of $94.0 million, or $2.39 per diluted share for the full year 2014. Full year 2015 results included approximately $23.0 million in Merger-related costs, $10.3 million in inventory step-up charges and $2.6 million in restructuring and other acquisition costs. Full year 2014 results included a discrete tax benefit of approximately $76.1 million related to the reversal of certain deferred tax valuation allowances.
Non-GAAP Results
Adjusted net sales in the fourth quarter of 2015 increased 15.7% to $727.8 million, compared to Adjusted net sales in the fourth quarter of 2014. We estimate Adjusted net sales increased 10.1% as a result of acquisitions completed in 2015 (excluding the Merger), 9.8% from other volume growth, and decreased 4.2% as a result of commodity deflation.
Fourth quarter 2015 Adjusted gross profit grew 18.7%, to $175.6 million, compared to Adjusted gross profit in the fourth quarter of 2014. Adjusted gross margin as a percentage of Adjusted net sales increased 60 basis points to 24.1%, compared to 23.5% in the fourth quarter of 2014, primarily as a result of an increased sales mix of structural components, millwork, doors and windows and other non-commodity products.
Adjusted net income in the fourth quarter of 2015 was $11.4 million, or $0.17 cents per diluted share, compared to Adjusted net income of $8.9 million, or $0.13 cents per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2014. Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of 2015 was $37.8 million, compared to $28.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2014.
A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to comparable GAAP financial measures is provided in the "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures" section of this press release.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Total liquidity as of December 31, 2015 was approximately $128.4 million, which includes cash and cash equivalents of $1.1 million and $127.3 million of borrowing availability under our asset-backed revolver. Capital expenditures during the fourth quarter of 2015 totaled $13.1 million, primarily to fund purchases of vehicles and equipment to support increased sales volume and replace aged assets, and facility and technology investments to support our operations. In addition, the Company acquired approximately $1.6 million of assets, consisting primarily of vehicles and equipment, under capital lease arrangements.
Outlook
“We believe positive macro-economic trends related to job and wage growth, builder confidence and consumer sentiment, combined with improving household formation rates and favorable demographics, will continue to support steady-paced new residential housing market growth in 2016,” stated Mr. Alexander. “Strategically, our focus is on further developing our value-added product offerings and technology driven service solutions aimed at enhancing the customer experience and shareholder return. In addition, our integration team is intensely dedicated to maximizing operational and cost saving synergies while identifying and sharing best practices and growth opportunities across the organization.”

Adjusted net income is defined as (i) BMC Stock net income (loss) plus (ii) pre-Merger SBS income (loss) from continuing operations, plus (iii) including pre-Merger results of SBS, Merger-related costs, inventory step-up charges, non-cash stock compensation expense, headquarters relocation expense, insurance deductible reserve adjustments and other items, and after tax effecting those items plus (iv) income tax benefits recognized during the fourth quarter of 2015 as described further in footnote (g) to the Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures table below. Adjusted net debt is defined as (i) long-term debt and capital lease obligations, including current and long-term portions, plus (ii) interest payable less (iii) cash and cash equivalents, and includes the pre-Merger SBS balances where applicable. Adjusted net sales, Adjusted gross profit, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income and Adjusted net debt are intended as supplemental measures of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. We believe that Adjusted net sales, Adjusted gross profit, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income and Adjusted net debt provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to our financial condition and operating results. Our management uses Adjusted net sales, Adjusted gross profit, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income and Adjusted net debt to compare our performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses, for purposes of determining management incentive compensation and for budgeting and planning purposes. Adjusted net sales, Adjusted gross profit, and Adjusted EBITDA is used in monthly financial reports prepared for management and our board of directors. We believe that the use of Adjusted net sales, Adjusted gross profit, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income and Adjusted net debt provide additional tools for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial measures with other distribution and retail companies, which may present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. However, our calculation of Adjusted net sales, Adjusted gross profit, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income and Adjusted net debt are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Our management does not consider Adjusted net sales, Adjusted gross profit, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income or Adjusted net debt in isolation or as alternatives to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of Adjusted gross profit, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company’s financial statements. Some of these limitations are: (i) Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (ii) Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our interest expense, or the requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt; (iii) Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our income tax expenses or the cash requirements to pay our taxes; (iv) Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income do not reflect historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (v) although depreciation and amortization charges are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future and Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements and (vi) Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income do not consider the potentially dilutive impact of issuing non-cash stock-based compensation. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents Adjusted net sales, Adjusted gross profit, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income and Adjusted net debt in conjunction with GAAP results. You should review the reconciliations of net sales to Adjusted net sales, gross profit to Adjusted gross profit, net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income, and debt to Adjusted Net debt below, and should not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
