Advanced Drainage Systems Announces Second Quarter Fiscal 2022 Results

Advanced Drainage Systems, Inc. (NYSE: WMS) (“ADS” or the “Company”), a leading provider of innovative water management solutions in the stormwater and on-site septic waste water industries today announced financial results for the fiscal second quarter ended September 30, 2021.

Second Quarter Fiscal 2022 Results

  • Net sales increased 29.8% to $706.5 million
  • Net income decreased 5.3% to $76.3 million
  • Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP) decreased 5.3% to $164.8 million

Year-to-Date Fiscal 2022 Results

  • Net sales increased 30.7% to $1,375.8 million
  • Net income increased 1.4% to $153.4 million
  • Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP) decreased 0.6% to $331.4 million
  • Cash provided by operating activities of $94.9 million
  • Free cash flow (Non-GAAP) of $31.1 million

Scott Barbour, President and Chief Executive Officer of ADS commented, "We achieved another quarter of record revenue results in the second quarter of fiscal 2022. Sales growth of 30% was driven by favorable pricing at both ADS and Infiltrator, as we capitalized on strong demand across our product portfolio and geographic footprint, particularly in priority states such as Florida, Texas and Georgia. Our leading indicators support continued strength in demand for the foreseeable future as we work through our record-high levels of backlog."

Barbour continued, "The favorable pricing we achieved in the second quarter offset inflationary cost pressure on materials and diesel. However, labor shortages impacted our manufacturing and transportation operations, limiting production and causing an increased use of third-party logistics services, at costs well above our internal fleet costs, to service our customers. We took actions to simplify our production processes and increase production rates, which are gaining traction and rebuilding service levels to customers."

"Year-to-date, capital spending more than doubled compared to last year as we continue to invest organically in growth of the ADS and Infiltrator businesses. We have approved capital investments that will result in double-digit increases in capacity at both businesses, enabling us to better serve customers as we progress through the second half of this fiscal year and beyond."

Barbour concluded, "Finally, our demand environment, strong backlog, favorable pricing and continued progress on our self-help initiatives give us confidence in our increased sales targets and reaffirmed Adjusted EBITDA guidance."

Second Quarter Fiscal 2022 Results

Net sales increased $162.3 million, or 29.8%, to $706.5 million, as compared to $544.2 million in the prior year quarter. Domestic pipe sales increased $92.4 million, or 31.6%, to $384.5 million. Domestic allied products & other sales increased $27.7 million, or 23.5%, to $145.7 million. Infiltrator sales increased $39.9 million, or 37.7%, to $145.9 million. These increases were driven by double-digit sales growth in both the U.S. construction and agriculture end markets. International sales increased $14.3 million, or 29.0%, to $63.6 million, driven by double-digit sales growth in the Canadian and Mexican businesses.

Gross profit decreased $5.8 million, or 2.8%, to $200.1 million as compared to $205.9 million in the prior year. In the second quarter, favorable pricing primarily offset the inflationary cost pressure on materials, diesel and labor. The decrease in gross profit is primarily due to an increase in the use of third-party logistics services due to labor shortages impacting the manufacturing and transportation operations.

Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP) decreased $9.3 million, or 5.3%, to $164.8 million, as compared to $174.1 million in the prior year. The decrease is primarily due to the factors mentioned above. As a percentage of net sales, Adjusted EBITDA was 23.3% as compared to 32.0% in the prior year.

Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP financial measures for Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow have been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Year-to-Date Fiscal 2022 Results

Net sales increased $322.9 million, or 30.7%, to $1,375.8 million, as compared to $1,052.8 million in the prior year. Domestic pipe sales increased $192.7 million, or 34.1%, to $758.5 million. Domestic allied products & other sales increased $37.8 million, or 16.1%, to $272.8 million. Infiltrator sales increased $64.5 million, or 31.0%, to $272.7 million. These increases were driven by double-digit sales growth in both the U.S. construction and agriculture end markets. International sales increased $43.8 million, or 51.5%, to $128.9 million, driven by double-digit sales growth in the Canadian, Mexican and Exports businesses.

Gross profit increased $6.8 million, or 1.7%, to $401.2 million as compared to $394.4 million in the prior year. The increase is primarily due an increase in sales volume and favorable pricing on pipe, on-site septic and allied products. These increases were partially offset by inflationary cost pressure on materials, transportation and labor, as well as an increase in the use of third-party logistics services due to labor shortages impacting the manufacturing and transportation operations.

Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP) decreased $2.2 million, or 0.6%, to $331.4 million, as compared to $333.5 million in the prior year. The decrease is primarily due to the factors mentioned above. As a percentage of net sales, Adjusted EBITDA was 24.1% as compared to 31.7% in the prior year.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $94.9 million, as compared to $286.2 million in the prior year. Free cash flow (Non-GAAP) was $31.1 million, as compared to $257.2 million in the prior year.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”)

The Company established an ESOP to enable employees to acquire stock ownership in ADS in the form of redeemable convertible preferred shares (“preferred shares”). All preferred shares will be converted to common shares by plan maturity, which will be no later than March 2023. The ESOP’s conversion of preferred shares into common shares will have a meaningful impact on net income, net income per share and common shares outstanding. The common shares outstanding will be greater after conversion.

Net Income (Loss)

The impact of the ESOP on net (loss) income includes the ESOP deferred compensation attributable to the preferred shares allocated to employee accounts during the period, which is a non-cash charge to our earnings and not deductible for income tax purposes.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). ADS management uses non-GAAP measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP results available in the accompanying tables.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes references to organic results, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow, non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. These measures are not intended to be substitutes for those reported in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures that comprise net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, non-cash charges and certain other expenses. The Company’s definition of Adjusted EBITDA may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures. Adjusted EBITDA is a key metric used by management and the Company’s board of directors to assess financial performance and evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s business strategies. Accordingly, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as the Company’s management and board of directors. In order to provide investors with a meaningful reconciliation, the Company has provided below reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA to net income.

Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that comprises cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures. Free Cash Flow is a measure used by management and the Company’s board of directors to assess the Company’s ability to generate cash. Accordingly, management believes that Free Cash Flow provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our ability to generate cash flow from operations after capital expenditures. In order to provide investors with a meaningful reconciliation, the Company has provided below a reconciliation of cash flow from operating activities to Free Cash Flow.

The following tables present a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income and Free Cash Flow to Cash Flow from Operating Activities, the most comparable GAAP measures, for each of the periods indicated.
