CEO's Remarks:

"Our third quarter results reflect the continued execution against our key strategic priorities: focusing on brands, managing costs, pursuing smart acquisitions, and developing our team," said Ryals McMullian, Flowers Foods' president and CEO. "During the quarter, we gained market share and delivered record third quarter sales ahead of expectations, driven by both growth and core brands."

McMullian continued, "More effectively managing costs is imperative as we work to mitigate the effects of a tight labor market, which has pressured manufacturing efficiencies and profitability. To that end, we have recently launched a focused initiative to optimize our portfolio and supply chain network with the aim of enhancing the underlying margin profile of our products, reducing complexity in our supply chain, and lowering fixed costs. We are confident that executing on our strategic initiatives will enable us to drive earnings growth and create shareholder value."

Current Outlook:

For the 52-week fiscal 2019 the company expects

  • Sales now to be in the range of approximately $4.110 billion to $4.130 billion, representing growth of approximately 4.0% to 4.5%. Previously, the company had expected sales growth of approximately 2.0% to 4.0%.
  • GAAP diluted EPS in the range of approximately $0.93 to $0.98.
  • Adjusted diluted EPS(1) to continue to be in the range of approximately $0.94 to $0.99, adjusted for items affecting comparability.

     (1)  Adjusted for items affecting comparability. See reconciliations of non-GAAP measures in 

           the financial statements following this release.

The company's outlook includes the following assumptions:

  • Canyon Bakehouse sales of approximately $75 million to $80 million
  • Depreciation and amortization in the range of $145 million to $150 million
  • Other pension expense in the range of $2.5 million to $3.0 million
  • Net interest expense of approximately $11 million to $12 million
  • An effective tax rate of approximately 23.0% to 23.5%

Consolidated Third Quarter 2019 Results

Compared to the prior year third quarter where applicable

  • Sales increased 4.7% to $966.6 million.
  • Percentage point change in sales attributed to:
    • Pricing/mix: 2.1%
    • Volume: 0.4%
    • Acquisition: 2.2%
  • Branded retail sales increased $36.7 million, or 6.7%, to $586.1 million, store branded retail sales increased $12.1 million, or 8.7% to $150.8 million, while non-retail and other sales decreased $5.7 million, or 2.4%, to $229.6 million.
  • Branded retail sales increased due to the Canyon acquisition, continued growth of Dave's Killer Bread, Wonder, and Nature's Own Perfectly Crafted branded products, as well as the introduction of Sun-Maid breakfast bread late in the third quarter of fiscal 2018, and more favorable price/mix.
  • Store branded retail sales increased primarily due to gluten-free store-branded items produced by Canyon, volume growth from additional distribution, and positive price/mix, partially offset by volume declines in store branded cake and breakfast breads.
  • Foodservice negative price/mix combined with volume declines in vending and institutional products drove the decrease in non-retail and other sales.
  • Adjusted EBITDA decreased 2.3% to $95.1 million, representing 9.8% of sales, a 70-basis point decrease.
  • Materials, supplies, labor and other production costs (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) were 52.7% of sales, a 10-basis point increase. These costs were higher as a percentage of sales due to rising workforce-related costs and decreased manufacturing efficiencies, partially offset by improved pricing/mix and lower ingredient costs as a percent of sales.
  • Selling, distribution and administrative (SD&A) expenses were 37.5% of sales, a 70-basis point decrease. Higher workforce-related costs and marketing expenses were offset by lower distributor distribution fees as a percentage of sales due to a shift in product mix, and lower transportation costs. In the prior year, SD&A included legal settlements of $11.9 million. Excluding prior year items affecting comparability, SD&A expenses increased by 60-basis points.
  • Depreciation and amortization (D&A) expenses were $33.2 million, 3.4% of sales, a 10-basis point decrease.

Cash Flow, Capital Allocation, and Capital Return

Year-to-date through the third quarter of fiscal 2019, cash flow from operating activities increased by $46.0 million to $278.1 million, capital expenditures decreased by $4.4 million to $70.6 million, and dividends paid increased by $7.6 million to $119.8 million. Year-to-date through the third quarter, the company has made cash debt repayments of $102.5 million.

The company has 6.2 million remaining shares authorized for repurchase under the company's current share repurchase plan. The company expects to continue to make opportunistic share repurchases from time to time under this plan.

Forward-Looking Statements

Statements contained in this press release that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements relate to current expectations regarding our future financial condition, performance and results of operations, planned capital expenditures, long-term objectives of management, supply and demand, pricing trends and market forces, and integration plans and expected benefits of transactions and are often identified by the use of words and phrases such as "anticipate," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "plan," "predict," "project," "should," "will," "would," "is likely to," "is expected to" or "will continue," or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. All forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from those projected. Other factors that may cause actual results to differ from the forward-looking statements contained in this release and that may affect the company's prospects in general include, but are not limited to, (a) general economic and business conditions and the competitive conditions in the baked foods industry, including promotional and price competition, (b) changes in consumer demand for our products, including changes in consumer behavior, trends and preferences, including health and whole grain trends, and the movement toward more inexpensive store-branded products, (c) the success of productivity improvements and new product introductions, (d) a significant reduction in business with any of our major customers including a reduction from adverse developments in any of our customer's business, (e) fluctuations in commodity pricing, (f) energy and raw material costs and availability and hedging and counterparty risk, (g) our ability to fully integrate recent acquisitions into our business, (h) our ability to achieve cash flow from capital expenditures and acquisitions and the availability of new acquisitions that build shareholder value, (i) our ability to successfully implement our business strategies, including those strategies the company has initiated under Project Centennial, which may involve, among other things, the integration of recent acquisitions or the acquisition or disposition of assets at presently targeted values, the deployment of new systems and technology and an enhanced organizational structure, (j) consolidation within the baking industry and related industries, (k) disruptions in our direct-store delivery system, including litigation or an adverse ruling from a court or regulatory or government body that could affect the independent contractor classification of our independent distributors, (l) increasing legal complexity and legal proceedings that we are or may become subject to, (m) product recalls or safety concerns related to our products, and (n) the failure of our information technology systems to perform adequately, including any interruptions, intrusions or security breaches of such systems. The foregoing list of important factors does not include all such factors, nor necessarily present them in order of importance. In addition, you should consult other public disclosures made by the company, including the risk factors included in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and disclosures made in other filings with the SEC and company press releases, for other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected by the company. We caution you not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, as they speak only as of the date made and are inherently uncertain. The company undertakes no obligation to publicly revise or update such statements, except as required by law.

Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, from time to time, the company may present in its public statements, press releases and SEC filings, non-GAAP financial measures, such as EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBIT, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted operating income, adjusted EPS, adjusted income tax expense, adjusted selling, distribution and administrative expenses (SD&A), gross margin excluding depreciation and amortization and the ratio of net debt to adjusted EBITDA. The reconciliations attached provide reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures used in this presentation or release to the most comparable GAAP financial measure. The company's definitions of these non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. These non-GAAP measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The company defines EBIT as earnings before interest and taxes and EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The company believes that EBITDA is a useful tool for managing the operations of its business and is an indicator of the company's ability to incur and service indebtedness and generate free cash flow. EBITDA is used as the primary performance measure in the company's 2014 Omnibus Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan. Furthermore, pursuant to the terms of our credit facility, EBITDA is used to determine the company's compliance with certain financial covenants. The company also believes that EBITDA measures are commonly reported and widely used by investors and other interested parties as measures of a company's operating performance and debt servicing ability because EBITDA measures assist in comparing performance on a consistent basis without regard to depreciation or amortization, which can vary significantly. EBITDA is also a widely-accepted financial indicator of a company's ability to incur and service indebtedness.

EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to (a) income from operations or net income (loss) as a measure of operating performance; (b) cash flows provided by operating, investing and financing activities (as determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of the company's ability to meet its cash needs; or (c) any other indicator of performance or liquidity that has been determined in accordance with GAAP.

The company defines adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBIT, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted operating income, adjusted EPS, adjusted income tax expense, adjusted SD&A expenses, respectively, excluding the impact of asset impairment charges, Project Centennial consulting costs, lease terminations and legal settlements, acquisition-related costs, and pension plan settlements. Adjusted EBIT and adjusted EBITDA also exclude other components of net periodic pension and postretirement benefits expense (credit). Adjusted income tax expense also excludes the impact of tax reform. The company believes that these measures, when considered together with its GAAP financial results, provides management and investors with a more complete understanding of its business operating results, including underlying trends, by excluding the effects of certain charges.

The ratio of debt to EBITDA is used as a measure of financial leverage employed by the company. Gross margin excluding depreciation and amortization is used as a performance measure to provide additional transparent information regarding our results of operations on a consolidated and segment basis. Changes in depreciation and amortization are separately discussed and include depreciation and amortization for materials, supplies, labor and other production costs and operating activities.

Presentation of gross margin includes depreciation and amortization in the materials, supplies, labor and other production costs in accordance with GAAP. Our method of presenting gross margin excludes the depreciation and amortization components, as discussed above.

The reconciliations attached provide reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures used in this presentation or release to the most comparable GAAP financial measure.
