LAFAYETTE, Ind., Oct. 31, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wabash National Corporation (NYSE:WNC), a diversified industrial manufacturer and North America’s leading producer of semi-trailers and liquid transportation systems, today reported results for the quarter ending September 30, 2017.
Net income for the third quarter of 2017 was $18.9 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, compared to third quarter 2016 net income of $33.4 million, or $0.51 per diluted share. Third quarter 2017 non-GAAP adjusted earnings decreased $11.7 million over the prior year period to $21.2 million, or $0.34 per diluted share. Non-GAAP adjusted earnings for the third quarter of 2017 excludes one-time acquisition expenses of $8.7 million related to the purchase of Supreme Industries, Inc. (“Supreme”) on September 27, 2017 and gains realized on the transition of former branch facilities to third-party dealers. Non-GAAP adjusted earnings for the third quarter of 2016 also excluded gains related to the transition of branch locations.
Net sales for the third quarter of 2017 were $425 million, a decrease of 8 percent as compared to the third quarter of 2016. Operating income decreased 52 percent to $26.6 million, due to lower trailer volume, compared to operating income of $54.9 million for the third quarter of 2016. Operating EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure that excludes the effects of certain recurring and non-recurring items, for the third quarter of 2017 was $46.6 million, a decrease of $20.3 million, or 30 percent, compared to Operating EBITDA for the prior year period. On a trailing twelve month basis, net sales totaled $1.7 billion, generating Operating EBITDA of $191.5 million, or 11.4 percent of net sales.

Dick Giromini, chief executive officer, stated, “Following prior year record performance is never easy, especially when operating in a somewhat more challenging environment. Throw in an acquisition, and the headlines get even more muddied. That said, we are nonetheless pleased to have delivered a historically solid performance in the third quarter, but not up to the lofty standards that we have become accustomed to in the past couple years. Looking forward, we are encouraged by recent market demand trends, and excited about what next year will bring as we integrate and leverage our newest addition, Supreme Industries, into our family.”
“A number of factors in the third quarter, including shipment pick-up delays impacted by the recent hurricanes, ongoing investment in our molded structural composites start-up, and a tighter labor market, and costs associated with our acquisition of Supreme, all combined to create a veil over all of the good things that are going on in the business that set us up for a strong 2018. With backlog totaling $670 million, excluding Supreme, as of September 30, 2017, we believe we are in a solid position as the 2018 order season enters its strongest period.”
Mr. Giromini continued, “In the near term, while many of the aforementioned short-term operational issues are behind us, others will linger throughout the balance of the year. Based on the mix of these factors, we are updating our full-year guidance for trailer shipments to 53,500 to 55,500 new trailers, and adjusting our earnings guidance range to $1.33 to $1.37 per diluted share.”
2018 Outlook
“Looking forward to next year, a strengthening economy driving increased trucking demand, strong year-over-year backlog, increasing market interest in our proprietary molded structural composite technology, the addition of Supreme, and the upcoming payback from increased investment in productivity-enhancing technologies in our van operations, all have me excited about what we will deliver in 2018 and beyond. Overall demand for van trailers within our Commercial Trailer Products segment is projected to remain historically strong for next year, combined with a much-improved demand environment for tank trailers and flatbed equipment. This belief is further supported by several factors, including a growing replacement cycle for 2004-2006 dry vans, a more stringent regulatory environment influencing both carrier and driver behaviors and the continued need to refresh equipment,” Mr. Giromini explained. “In addition, we expect top- and bottom-line improvements in our Diversified Products segment due to the improving market conditions served by this segment as well as realization of various productivity improvement initiatives in both Commercial Trailer Products and Diversified Products segments. Couple these growth and performance opportunities with the addition of Supreme and our Final Mile Products segment, we currently project full-year 2018 earnings expectation of $1.55 to $1.75 per share.”
Business Segment Highlights
The table below is a summary of select segment operating and financial results prior to the elimination of intersegment sales for the third quarter of 2017 and 2016. A complete disclosure of the results by individual segment is included in the tables following this release.
| (dollars in thousands) | Commercial Trailer Products | Diversified Products | ||||||||||||||||
| 2017 | 2016 | 2017 | 2016 | |||||||||||||||
| New trailers shipped | 13,350 | 14,900 | 550 | 550 | ||||||||||||||
| Net sales | $ | 339,492 | $ | 380,514 | $ | 88,850 | $ | 87,450 | ||||||||||
| Gross profit | $ | 43,849 | $ | 64,681 | $ | 17,378 | $ | 18,947 | ||||||||||
| Gross profit margin | 12.9 | % | 17.0 | % | 19.6 | % | 21.7 | % | ||||||||||
| Income from operations | $ | 36,319 | $ | 55,043 | $ | 5,179 | $ | 6,224 | ||||||||||
| Income from operations margin | 10.7 | % | 14.5 | % | 5.8 | % | 7.1 | % | ||||||||||
Commercial Trailer Products’ net sales for the third quarter were $339 million, a decrease of $41 million, or 11 percent, as compared to the prior year. Gross profit margin for the third quarter decreased 410 basis points as compared to the prior year period. The year-over-year declines in net sales and gross profit margin were primarily due to lower new trailer shipments, increases in commodity costs and labor shortages resulting in higher levels of overtime to meet current production levels. Operating income decreased $18.7 million, or 34 percent, from the third quarter of last year to $36.3 million, or 10.7 percent of net sales.
Diversified Products’ net sales for the third quarter increased $1 million, or 2 percent, as compared to the prior year period primarily due to increased demand for liquid tank trailers and process systems businesses. Gross profit and gross profit margin as compared to the prior year period decreased $1.6 million and 210 basis points, respectively, as continued softness within the chemical and energy end markets for tank trailers and increases in commodity costs negatively impacted this segment. Operating income for the third quarter of 2017 was $5.2 million, or 5.8 percent of net sales, a decrease of $1.0 million compared to the same period last year.
Acquisition of Supreme
On September 27, 2017, the Company completed the previously announced acquisition of Supreme, a leading manufacturer of truck bodies, following a cash tender offer by a subsidiary of the Company for all outstanding shares of Supreme, for $21 per share. Commenting on the transaction, Mr. Giromini said, “We are excited to add the Supreme business to our Company in order to leverage the urbanization and ecommerce trends which are fueling a consumer preference for home delivery. Wabash intends to be at the forefront of the final mile evolution in the transportation market, and the addition of Supreme to our portfolio advances that strategy.” The truck body and final mile industry continues to demonstrate a healthy demand environment as the backlog of Supreme at quarter end was $70 million, representing a 32 percent increase as compared to the prior year period.
The Company financed the acquisition of Supreme and related fees and expenses using the proceeds of the Company’s offering of a $325 million aggregate principal amount senior unsecured notes due 2025 (“Senior Notes”) and available cash and cash equivalents. The Senior Notes will bear interest at a rate of 5.50% and were issued at par. As of September 30, 2017, the Company had liquidity, or cash plus available borrowings, of approximately $323 million.
Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the financial information included in this release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted operating income, operating EBITDA, operating EBITDA margin, adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per diluted share.
These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures and results calculated in accordance with GAAP, including net income, and reconciliations to GAAP financial statements should be carefully evaluated.
Operating EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, acquisition expenses, impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets and other non-operating income and expense. Management believes providing operating EBITDA is useful for investors to understand the Company’s performance and results of operations period to period with the exclusion of the items identified above. Management believes the presentation of operating EBITDA, when combined with the GAAP presentations of operating income and net income, is beneficial to an investor’s understanding of the Company’s operating performance. A reconciliation of operating EBITDA to net income is included in the tables following this release.
Adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per diluted share for the three and nine month periods ending September 30, 2017 and 2016 reflect adjustments for charges incurred in connection with acquisition related costs, the losses attributable to the Company’s extinguishment of debt, income or losses recognized on the sale and/or closure of former Company locations, one-time executive severance costs and impairment of goodwill charges. Management believes providing adjusted measures and excluding certain items facilitates comparisons to the Company’s prior year periods and, when combined with the GAAP presentation of net income and diluted net income per share, is beneficial to an investor’s understanding of the Company’s performance. A reconciliation of adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per diluted share to net income and net income per diluted share is included in the tables following this release.
