NEW PORT RICHEY, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Manitowoc Foodservice, Inc. MFS, today announced financial results for its 2016 fourth quarter. Net sales in the fourth quarter were $378.7 million compared to $391.7 million in last year's fourth quarter, a 3.3 percent decrease. Organic net sales in constant currency increased 5.1 percent versus last year's fourth quarter, with organic net sales increasing by 2.6 percent and excluding a 2.5 percent negative impact from foreign currency translation. For the year, net sales were $1,456.6 million compared to $1,570.1 million in 2015, a 7.2 percent decrease. Organic net sales in constant currency increased 1.9 percent compared to last year, with organic net sales increasing 0.1 percent and excluding a 1.8 percent negative impact from foreign currency translation.

Net earnings in the fourth quarter were $21.4 million and diluted earnings per share were $0.15 compared to $65.1 million and $0.48 per share on a carve-out basis in the fourth quarter of 2015. Adjusted net earnings were $22.8 million and adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.16 in the fourth quarter versus $75.2 million and $0.55 per share, respectively, on a carve-out basis in the fourth quarter of 2015. For the year, net earnings were $79.5 million and diluted earnings per share were $0.57, compared to $157.1 million and $1.15 per share on a carve-out basis for the same period in 2015. Adjusted net earnings were $87.1 million and adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.62 year-to-date versus $168.9 million and $1.23 per share, respectively, on a carve-out basis for the same period in 2015.

Earnings from operations were $55.1 million in the fourth quarter compared to $40.8 million in last year's fourth quarter. As a percentage of net sales, earnings from operations were 14.5 percent in the quarter versus 10.4 percent in last year's fourth quarter. Adjusted operating EBITA was $65.5 million in the fourth quarter versus $64.6 million in last year's fourth quarter, a 1.4 percent increase. As a percentage of net sales, our fourth quarter adjusted operating EBITA margin was 17.3 percent versus 16.5 percent last year, an 80 basis point improvement. The main drivers of the margin improvement in the fourth quarter were savings from our Simplification and Right-Sizing initiatives, improved pricing and discounting discipline, and better fixed cost absorption, partially offset by higher compensation expense than in last year's fourth quarter.

2016 earnings from operations were $199.2 million compared to $159.9 million last year. As a percentage of net sales, 2016 earnings from operations were 13.7 percent versus 10.2 percent last year. 2016 adjusted operating EBITA was $242.7 million versus $210.1 million in 2015, a 15.5 percent increase. As a percentage of net sales, 2016 adjusted operating EBITA margin was 16.7 percent versus 13.4 percent last year, a 330 basis point improvement.

"I am proud of the operating improvements our 5,500 employees delivered in 2016 as their outstanding execution of our Simplification and Right-Sizing initiatives delivered a 330 basis point improvement in adjusted operating EBITA," said Hubertus Muehlhaeuser, Manitowoc Foodservice's President and CEO. "Within Simplification, we pruned an additional 7 percent of our equipment SKUs during the quarter, bringing our total equipment SKU reduction to 16 percent since we adopted the 80/20 methodology. We also made good progress this quarter on the second round of Right-Sizing that we announced last August and we have now completed the planned closure of our Sellersburg, Indiana plant in the first quarter of 2017. We also continued the journey of de-levering our balance sheet this quarter with a $66.8 million net debt reduction in the quarter, bringing our 2016 debt reduction total to $131.8 million."

"Fourth quarter organic net sales in constant currency was very strong and benefited from strong Merrychef® eikon® e2s high-speed oven and beverage system sales in EMEA, better KitchenCare® sales in the Americas, and improvement in Fabristeel™ sales in APAC. As we enter 2017, we anticipate that the softer QSR and fast-casual end market conditions that we experienced in 2016 will continue into 2017. We remain well-positioned to benefit from our new product introductions that began shipping in the fourth quarter, although we remain subject to the timing and magnitude of orders for these products from our large QSR and fast-casual customers."

"I reiterate our key message: our prime strategic objective is the achievement of profitable growth. The initial priority on this multi-year journey is to increase our margins to industry-competitive levels by focusing on improving our operations and decreasing product cost. We made great progress in 2016; however, we are still early in the journey and it is critical to our long-term success to remain very disciplined in the ongoing execution of our Simplification and Right-Sizing initiatives to improve our cost structure. At the same time, we are positioning ourselves to capture profitable sales opportunities with our focus on product innovations and selling system solutions that take advantage of our full product portfolio. Another step in that positioning was announced last week with the rebranding of our company to Welbilt, Inc. and a move away from our legacy parent name," concluded Muehlhaeuser.

Segment Discussion

Net sales in our Americas segment decreased 5.9 percent in the quarter to $304.9 million from $323.9 million in last year's fourth quarter. Organic third party net sales in constant currency increased $1.5 million, or 0.6 percent, in the quarter compared to last year's fourth quarter. This increase was primarily driven by improved KitchenCare sales, partially offset by lower hot-side product volumes and excludes a negative $1.3 million impact from foreign currency translation. For the year, net sales were $1,186.6 million versus $1,323.7 million last year. Organic third party net sales in constant currency decreased $3.9 million in 2016 compared to last year. Fourth quarter operating EBITA in the Americas segment was $52.9 million compared to $48.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2015. As a percentage of net sales, our operating EBITA margin was 17.3 percent in the fourth quarter versus 15.0 percent in the same period last year. The operating EBITA margin increase was primarily driven by savings from our Simplification and Right-Sizing initiatives, operating efficiency improvements, improved pricing and the sale of KPS in 2015. For the year, Americas segment operating EBITA was $219.1 million versus $189.9 million last year. As a percentage of net sales, full year operating EBITA was 18.5 percent versus 14.3 percent last year.

Third party net sales in constant currency increased $14.6 million, or 26.5 percent, in the quarter compared to last year's fourth quarter. The increase was driven primarily by higher sales of hot-side products including our new Merrychef eikon e2s high-speed ovens and stronger cold-side product sales including our beverage systems, and excludes a negative $6.6 million impact from foreign currency translation. For the year, net sales in our EMEA segment were $287.6 million versus $281.6 million last year. Third party net sales in constant currency increased $30.7 million, or 14.0 percent, in 2016 compared to last year.

As a percentage of net sales, our operating EBITA margin was 19.7 percent in the fourth quarter versus 11.4 percent in the same period last year. The operating EBITA margin increase was primarily driven by savings from our Simplification and Right-Sizing initiatives and better product mix from our new product introductions, partially offset by the impact of foreign currency translation. For the year, the EMEA segment operating EBITA was $41.3 million versus $23.1 million last year. As a percentage of net sales, 2016 operating EBITA was 14.4 percent versus 8.2 percent last year.

Organic third party net sales in constant currency increased $2.6 million, or 5.4 percent, in the quarter compared to last year's fourth quarter. The increase was driven primarily from higher sales of hot-side and Fabristeel products, partially offset by lower cold-side product sales and excludes a negative $1.1 million impact from foreign currency translation. For the year, net sales in our APAC segment were $190.9 million versus $191.1 million in the same period last year. 2016 organic third party net sales in constant currency increased $1.3 million, or 0.8 percent, compared to last year. Fourth quarter operating EBITA in the APAC segment was $6.2 million compared to $4.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2015, with the increase being driven primarily by savings from our Simplification and Right-Sizing initiatives, and from operating efficiency improvements. As a percentage of net sales, our operating EBITA margin was 11.0 percent for the fourth quarter of 2016 versus 8.3 percent for the same period in the prior year. For the year, the APAC segment operating EBITA was $21.8 million versus $22.5 million last year. As a percentage of net sales, 2016 operating EBITA was 11.4 percent versus 11.8 percent last year.

Liquidity Discussion

Free cash flow was $65.0 million in the quarter. Net other assets and other current and long-term liabilities, accounts receivable, inventory, and accounts payable were all sources of cash in the fourth quarter of $11.6 million, $9.3 million, $7.9 million and $4.6 million, respectively. During the quarter, total debt decreased by $66.8 million primarily from the repayment of $80.0 million principal on Term Loan B, while the outstanding balance on our revolving credit facility increased by $13.5 million. For the year, total debt decreased by $131.8 million.

2017 Guidance

We are initiating our full-year 2017 guidance ranges. We are anticipating that conditions in the large QSR and fast casual accounts will remain soft, while we expect better conditions in the general market and to begin benefiting from 2016's new product introductions. We will again focus on margin improvement through the continued execution of our Simplification and Right-Sizing initiatives. We are changing our margin metric from adjusted operating EBITA to adjusted operating EBITDA in 2017 to be better aligned with the commercial foodservice equipment industry. We are firmly committed to our long-term strategic margin improvement target.

  • Organic net sales growth in constant currency: between (1) and 2 percent;
  • Adjusted operating EBITDA margin: between 18.5 and 20 percent;
  • Interest expense: between $85 and $90 million;
  • Effective tax rate: between 29 and 32 percent, based on current tax laws;
  • Adjusted diluted EPS: between $0.65 and $0.75 per share, based on a forecast of 140.8 million fully diluted shares outstanding;
  • Amortization expense: between $30 and $33 million;
  • Depreciation expense: between $16 and $19 million;
  • Capital expenditures: between $23 and $28 million; and
  • Debt reduction: between $100 and $120 million.

ADJUSTED OPERATING EBITA

In addition to analyzing its results on a U.S. GAAP basis, management also reviews its results on an "Operating EBITA" basis. Operating EBITA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, other (income) expense and amortization. Management uses Operating EBITA as the basis on which it evaluates its financial performance and makes resource allocation and other operating decisions. Management considers it important that investors review the same operating information that it uses. In addition, the table below also presents Adjusted operating EBITA which is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, other (income) expense and amortization plus certain items such as asset impairment, restructuring and separation charges. Adjusted operating EBITA reconciles to net earnings presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP as follows:
