“During this unprecedented time, our thoughts and prayers are with all of those affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and we offer our thanks and appreciation to our nation’s healthcare workers and first responders who have been on the front lines of this battle since it started. I’d also like to thank all of our associates who have been working diligently to take care of each other and our customers,” said Dave Flitman, President and CEO of BMC.
“We were very pleased with our first quarter results, which exceeded our expectations and capitalized on a strong pipeline of construction activity and continued momentum in our value-added products and services. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our focus quickly turned to the safety and well-being of our associates and their families while meeting the critical product and service needs of our customers. We have taken numerous steps across our local operations to help protect our associates and customers, accelerate productivity gains while reducing our operating expenses and capital expenditures, and increase our company’s financial flexibility. Our team is focused on protecting the assets of the company, while not losing sight of executing our long-term strategic objectives.”
Flitman continued, “We entered this crisis in a position of strength, and I’m confident that our actions, combined with our commitment to our associates, customers and suppliers have positioned us to successfully navigate this period of uncertainty.”

First Quarter 2020 Financial Results Compared to Prior Year Period
- Net sales increased 11.6% to $920.9 million primarily driven by growth from acquisitions of 6.0%, core organic growth of 5.3% and growth of 1.7% due to an extra selling day. These increases were partially offset by a 0.7% decrease due to price deflation and the impact of a closed location of 0.7%.
- Gross profit increased 9.7% to $237.1 million. Gross profit as a percentage of sales (gross margin) was 25.8%, compared to 26.2% for the first quarter of 2019. The 40 basis point decline in gross margin was driven by a decrease in the gross margin in the lumber and lumber sheet goods and structural components product categories, which benefited from unusually high commodity price-related gross margins during the prior year period, partially offset by an increase in the percent of net sales derived from our millwork, doors and windows product category, which often generates higher gross margins relative to other products.
- Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased $17.0 million to $186.9 million. Approximately $11.2 million, or nearly 66%, of this increase was related to SG&A expenses in the Company’s recently acquired businesses, $1.4 million related to an increase in bad debt expense primarily due to the expected economic impact from the COVID-19 outbreak, and $1.3 million related to increased health care costs. The remaining increase was primarily related to employee wage inflation and other variable costs to serve higher sales volumes. SG&A expenses as a percent of net sales declined 30 basis points to 20.3%, compared to 20.6% for the first quarter of 2019.
- Depreciation expense, including the portion reported within cost of sales, increased $2.5 million to $15.0 million, compared to $12.4 million in the first quarter of 2019.
- Merger and integration costs decreased to $1.2 million, consisting primarily of system integration costs, compared to $2.8 million in the first quarter of 2019.
- Amortization expense was $5.0 million compared to $4.3 million in the first quarter of 2019, primarily due to the amortization of intangible assets at recently acquired businesses.
- Interest expense was $5.9 million compared to $6.0 million in the first quarter of 2019.
- Other income, net, which was derived primarily from state and local tax incentives, interest income and customer service charges, was $2.9 million, unchanged from the prior year period.
- Net income was $22.0 million, or $0.33 per diluted share for the quarter, compared to $20.4 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2019.
- Adjusted net income (non-GAAP) increased to $26.7 million, or $0.40 per diluted share (non-GAAP), compared to Adjusted net income of $25.0 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2019.
- Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) was $61.0 million, up 12.1% from the first quarter of 2019.
- Adjusted EBITDA margin (non-GAAP), defined as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales, was 6.6%, unchanged from the prior year period.
- Cash provided by operating activities declined $60.7 million to $17.1 million due to an increase in trade receivables and inventory associated with higher sales volume and the timing of vendor payments in the prior year period.
COVID-19 Update
Safety:
As one of our core values, we are dedicated to ensuring that the safety of BMC’s associates and families is of the utmost importance during these challenging times. Over the course of the past two months, the Company took numerous steps to protect our associates, customers and the community. In mid-March, we created a cross-function task force that meets daily to ensure that we are responding with the development of the necessary processes, protocols, training and communications related to our response. These measures incorporated the guidelines recommended by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and include detailed cleaning and disinfecting processes, social distancing protocols, providing face coverings and other personal protective equipment, suspending air travel, and encouraging associates to work from home when possible.
The Company also implemented requirements for job site safety, signage at our locations and are partnering with our customers as necessary. Additionally, the Company launched a dedicated COVID-19 resource intranet page to keep associates up-to-date on Company and health authority information, guidelines and policies. The Company also enacted several emergency pay programs in order to maintain continuity of pay for associates who report any symptoms or are unable to report to work because of a COVID-19 disruption.
Operations:
While state, county, and other local municipalities have issued various and differing shelter in place orders, in most locations the Company’s products and services are classified as “essential” and the Company’s facilities in those jurisdictions continue to operate. In a select number of states, including Washington, Pennsylvania and portions of northern California, the Company experienced more restrictive stay-at-home orders that halted certain construction activities. However, these three jurisdictions are in the process of reopening building construction.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Total liquidity as of March 31, 2020 was approximately $501.1 million, which included $282.8 million of cash and cash equivalents and $218.3 million of borrowing availability under the Company’s asset-backed revolving credit facility. During the quarter, the Company borrowed $144 million under its revolving credit facility as a precautionary measure. Importantly, the Company has no significant long-term debt maturities until 2024.
Capital expenditures during the first quarter of 2020, net of proceeds from the sale of property, equipment and real estate, totaled $30.2 million. These expenditures were primarily used to fund purchases of vehicles and equipment to replace aged assets and support increased sales volume and facility, technology and automation investments to support our operations. The Company has postponed future growth-related capital projects until further notice, but will continue to invest in safety and productivity-related capital expenditures.
Stock Repurchases
During the first quarter of 2020, the Company repurchased 0.1 million shares at a weighted average price of $16.20 per share under the Company’s $75.0 million share repurchase program authorized by the Company’s board of directors. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had approximately $54.2 million of capacity remaining under the current share repurchase authorization, which expires in November 2020. The Company has temporarily suspended its share repurchase program due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
April Net Sales & Core Strategies Update
Considering the rapidly evolving COVID-19 pandemic, BMC withdrew its full-year 2020 outlook on April 6, 2020, as management anticipated that COVID-19 will have a negative impact on housing starts and the Company’s financial results over the remainder of the year.
In the final week of March and throughout April, most of the Company’s markets experienced negative impacts to net sales, ranging in severity from a deceleration relative to their first quarter growth rates to modest year-over-year declines. The Company experienced more significant year over year sales declines in Washington, Pennsylvania and portions of northern California. The Company estimates the percentage decline in core organic net sales for the month of April 2020 as compared to April 2019 was in the mid-single digits.
The Company’s core strategies remain unchanged. They include:
- Grow Value Added Products and Segments
- Deliver Operational Excellence with the BMC Operating System
- Build a High Performing Culture
- Pursue Strategic Expansion
This information reflects management’s good faith estimates based on our internal reporting and available information as of May 5, 2020. However, these estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to change, and we undertake no obligation to update this information. Actual results remain subject to the completion of our customary quarterly financial closing procedures and the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and may differ materially from these estimates.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures
(unaudited)
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income and Adjusted net income per diluted share are intended as supplemental measures of the Company’s performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income and Adjusted net income per diluted share provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and operating results.
- Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income plus interest expense (income), income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, merger and integration costs, non-cash stock compensation expense, acquisition costs and other items.
- Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales.
- Adjusted net income is defined as net income plus merger and integration costs, non-cash stock compensation expense, acquisition costs, other items and after tax effecting those items.
- Adjusted net income per diluted share is defined as Adjusted net income divided by diluted weighted average shares.
Company management uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income for trend analysis, for purposes of determining management incentive compensation and for budgeting and planning purposes. Adjusted EBITDA is used in monthly financial reports prepared for management and the board of directors. The Company believes that the use of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income and Adjusted net income per diluted share provides additional tools for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the Company’s financial measures with other distribution and retail companies, which may present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. However, the Company’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income and Adjusted net income per diluted share are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Company management does not consider Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income and Adjusted net income per diluted share in isolation or as alternatives to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income and Adjusted net income per diluted share 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, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income and Adjusted net income per diluted share do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs; (ii) Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin do not reflect interest expense, or the requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on debt; (iii) Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin do not reflect income tax expenses or the cash requirements to pay taxes; (iv) Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income and Adjusted net income per diluted share 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, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income and Adjusted net income per diluted share do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements and (vi) Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income and Adjusted net income per diluted share do not consider the potentially dilutive impact of issuing non-cash stock-based compensation. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income and Adjusted net income per diluted share in conjunction with GAAP results. Readers should review the reconciliations of net income to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income below, and should not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business.
