BRAMPTON, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Aug. 4, 2011) -
(All amounts are stated in thousands of Canadian dollars, except per share amounts.)
Brampton Brick Limited (TSX:BBL.A) today reported a loss of $540, or $0.05 per share, for the second quarter ended June 30, 2011 compared to net income of $373, or $0.03 per share, for the second quarter of 2010. The aggregate weighted average number of Class A Subordinate Voting shares ("Class A shares") and Class B Multiple Voting shares ("Class B shares") outstanding was 10,936,554 in both periods.
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30
Revenues for the quarter were $23,495 compared to $23,817 in 2010. The net decrease of $322 was due to a $494 decrease in revenues in the Landscape Products business segment. Revenues from the Masonry Products business segment increased by $172 on the strength of higher shipments of concrete masonry products, including concrete block which the Company began selling in the Ontario market in April 2011.
Operating results were negatively impacted by higher yard and delivery expenses as well as increased selling and general and administrative expenses.
Yard and delivery expenses, which are included in Cost of Sales in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss) were higher in the second quarter of 2011 compared to 2010. Yard expenses increased as a result of the costs incurred with respect to a new sales depot in eastern Ontario which was opened in the third quarter of 2010. Delivery expenses increased as a result of an increase in brick shipments from the Indiana plant into the Canadian market.
During the first quarter of 2011 the Company reviewed the remaining useful life of plant and production equipment which resulted in changes in the expected useful life of certain production equipment. As a result, depreciation expense, which is included in Cost of Sales in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss) decreased by $945 for the three month period ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010.
Selling expenses increased by $136, or approximately 8.5%, as a result of increased advertising and marketing expenditures to support the introduction of new products and to expand the Company's product and geographic market profile. General and administrative expenses increased by $292, or approximately 21.9%, primarily due to certain non-recurring expenses and an increase in the provision for potentially uncollectible accounts.
As a result, operating income for the quarter was $1,842 compared to $3,045 for the second quarter of 2010.
The decrease in finance costs to $1,291 for the second quarter in 2011 from $1,357 in 2010 was primarily due to a decrease in the unrealized loss on the derivative financial instrument.
The Company's share of the loss from its 50% joint venture interest in Universal Resource Recovery Inc. ("Universal") amounted to $793 in the second quarter of 2011 compared to $635 in 2010.
Processing operations, which had been suspended for much of the second half of 2010 and had resumed in mid-December 2010, were suspended again in early June 2011. As a result, Universal's revenues were lower in the second quarter of 2011 than in the corresponding period in 2010. Universal anticipates that processing operations will resume in the fourth quarter.
The provision for income taxes of $314 for the second quarter of 2011 and $698 for the second quarter of 2010 relates solely to the pre-tax income of the Company's Canadian operations. The Company did not record a deferred tax asset with respect to the potential future income tax benefit pertaining to the losses incurred by its U.S. operations.
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30
For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company incurred a loss of $4,965, or $0.45 per share, compared to a loss of $3,412, or $0.32 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The aggregate weighted average number of Class A shares and Class B shares outstanding was 10,936,554 in both periods.
Revenues for the six month period were $34,111, a decrease of $1,850 from the same period in 2010. A decrease in clay brick shipments and lower sales volumes of landscape products, both primarily due to unfavourable weather conditions, were partially offset by continued growth in sales of concrete masonry products, including concrete block.
Yard and delivery expenses increased for the six month period compared to last year and depreciation expense decreased for the same reasons as noted above for the three months results of operations. Similarly, the year to date increases in selling and general and administrative expenses were the result of the same factors as noted above.
For the six month period ended June 30, 2011, the Company incurred an operating loss of $1,719 compared to operating income of $129 for the same period in 2010.
Finance costs increased marginally as a result of the additional interest expense in the current period on the $9,000 subordinated debenture which was issued on February 26, 2010, offset, in part, by a higher unrealized gain on the derivative financial instrument.
As noted above under the three months results of operations, the Company recorded a recovery of, or provision for, income taxes only with respect to its Canadian operations. The Company has not recorded a deferred tax asset with respect to the potential future tax benefit pertaining to losses incurred by its U.S. operations.
For the six month period ended June 30, 2011, the Company's share of the loss incurred by Universal amounted to $1,507 compared to $1,235 in 2010.
More detailed discussion with respect to each operating business segment follows:
MASONRY PRODUCTS
For the three month period ended June 30, 2011, the Masonry Products business segment reported operating income of $559 on revenues of $15,480 compared to operating income of $1,684 on revenues of $15,308 for the corresponding period in 2010.
For the six month period, this business segment incurred an operating loss of $437 in 2011 compared to operating income of $1,572 in 2010. Revenues for the six month period declined by $1,521 from $26,741 in 2010 to $25,220 in 2011.
Sales volumes of concrete masonry products continued to grow, increasing by approximately 26% over the second quarter of 2010 as a result of increased recognition and acceptance in the marketplace for these products. In addition, the introduction of concrete block products in the Ontario market in April of this year generated new revenues.
Brick shipments in the Canadian market were lower than last year due, primarily, to unfavourable weather conditions in both the first and second quarters of this year. In the U.S. market, brick shipments increased over 2010 levels although this market continues to be impacted by a historically low level of residential construction activity.
Higher yard and delivery expenses and increased selling, general and administrative expenses, all as noted above, negatively impacted operating results in both the three and six month periods. These increases were partially offset by lower depreciation expense.
LANDSCAPE PRODUCTS
The Landscape Products business segment reported operating income of $1,283 on revenues of $8,015 for the three month period ended June 30, 2011 compared to operating income of $1,361 on revenues of $8,509 in 2010.
For the six month period to June 30, 2011, revenues of $8,891 were $329 lower than in 2010 due to unfavourable weather conditions throughout most of the second quarter. Higher selling and general and administrative expenses were offset by lower depreciation expense resulting in an operating loss of $1,282 compared to $1,443 for the same period in 2010.
CASH FLOWS
Cash flow used for operating activities totaled $4,929 for the six month period ended June 30, 2011 compared to cash flow of $2,168 provided by operating activities for the same period last year. The primary reasons for the increase in cash required for operations were the higher loss for the period combined with the impact of the decrease in depreciation expense, higher accounts receivable outstanding at the end of the period due to the timing of collections and higher disbursements of trade payables.
Cash utilized for purchases of property, plant and equipment totaled $1,920 for the six month period, including approximately $476 related to new products, compared to $929 in 2010.
Advances to Universal during the six month period in 2011 were $1,875 compared to $1,850 in the same period in 2010.
Bank operating advances increased by $9,473 for the period to fund operating cash requirements, purchases of property, plant and equipment as well as interest and debt repayments. Advances to Universal were funded from the Company's cash resources.
On February 26, 2010, the Company completed a $9,000 subordinated secured debenture financing. In connection therewith, a $3,000 unsecured promissory note payable, which was due in December, 2009 but not paid, was refinanced as part of the debenture issue. Certain parties, including a Director of the Company, holding an indirect interest in $1,100 of the $3,000 promissory note payable, subscribed for an equal or greater principal amount of the debenture issue. The remaining parties, including a Director of the Company, holding an indirect interest in $1,900 of the $3,000 promissory note payable, agreed to accept a new unsecured promissory note with identical terms and conditions as the previous promissory note, except that the new promissory note was due in full on September 30, 2010. The new promissory note was repaid on the due date.
The subordinated debenture was recorded for accounting purposes at its fair value which, net of transaction costs incurred in the amount of $377, amounted to $8,623 and is being carried at amortized cost. The transaction costs are being amortized over the term of the loan resulting in an effective interest rate of 11.89%. As at June 30, 2011 the unamortized transaction costs were $209.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Company's Masonry Products and Landscape Products business segments are seasonal in nature. The Landscape Products business is affected to a greater degree than the Masonry Products business. As a result of this seasonality, operating results are impacted accordingly and cash requirements are generally expected to increase through the first half of the year and decline through the second half of the year.
As at June 30, 2011, bank operating advances were $11,297. This represented an increase of $9,473 from the amount outstanding at December 31, 2010. Trade payables totaled $10,315 at June 30, 2011 compared to $9,638 at December 31, 2010.
The ratio of total liabilities to shareholders' equity was 0.60:1 at June 30, 2011 compared to 0.49:1 at December 31, 2010. The increase in this ratio from December 2010 to June 2011 was primarily due to the increase in bank operating advances, as noted above, the impact of foreign currency translation on Accumulated other comprehensive loss and lower retained earnings resulting from the loss incurred for the six month period ended June 30, 2011.
As at June 30, 2011, working capital was $14,603, representing a working capital ratio of 1.51:1. Comparable figures for working capital and the working capital ratio at December 31, 2010 were $18,499 and 2.07:1, respectively. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $3,543 at June 30, 2011 compared to $5,383 at December 31, 2010.
The Company has an operating credit facility of $15,000. This is a demand facility which is secured primarily by trade receivables and inventories of the Company's Masonry Products and Landscape Products business segments in both Canada and the U.S. The actual amount that the Company may borrow under this facility is the lesser of $15,000 or the amount of the borrowing base determined according to standard margin formulas for trade receivables and inventories, less prior ranking claims and the mark-to-market exposure on the interest rate swap contract. As at June 30, 2011 the borrowing base exceeded $15,000. Consequently, the borrowing limit was $15,000 and the utilization was $11,611, including $11,297 for bank operating advances and $314 for outstanding letters of credit.
The Company expects that future cash flows from operations, cash and cash equivalents on hand and the unutilized balance of its operating credit facility will be sufficient to satisfy its obligations as they become due.
The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants under its long-term debt agreement as at June 30, 2011 and anticipates that it will maintain compliance throughout the year.
CONVERSION TO INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS
Effective January 1, 2011, the Company is required to prepare and report its financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). Comparative information for 2010 was required to be restated to comply with IFRS, including an opening Consolidated Balance Sheet as at January 1, 2010.
Accordingly, in the accompanying Selected Financial Information, all amounts as at January 1, 2010 and December 31, 2010 and for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010 have been restated to comply with the requirements of IFRS.
In the following discussion the term GAAP refers to Canadian GAAP before the adoption of IFRS.
A summary of the more significant financial effects of the conversion to IFRS on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements is as follows:
a) Property, plant and equipment
Upon transition to IFRS, the Company elected to use the fair value as deemed cost election as at January 1, 2010 for properties and certain production equipment utilized in its Canadian masonry products and landscape products operations. In the second quarter of 2011, the Company decided to revisit the use of certain elections, and for consistency, it also decided to apply the fair value as deemed cost election as at January 1, 2010 to certain production equipment utilized in its U.S. landscape operations. As a result, the net carrying value of land and machinery and equipment as at January 1, 2010 increased by $35,366 and $20,032, respectively. The aggregate increase, net of related deferred income tax liabilities of $9,356, amounted to $46,042 and was reflected as an adjustment to Equity in the January 1, 2010 opening Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The increase in the carrying amount of machinery and equipment resulted in an increase in depreciation expense of $596 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, $1,115 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and $2,229 for the year ended December 31, 2010 from the amount reported under previous GAAP.
b) Asset impairment
Under IAS 36, Impairment of Assets ("IAS 36"), asset impairments are determined based on the assessment of the difference between the carrying amount and recoverable amount of the assets in a cash generating unit (CGU). The Company has determined that the Brampton clay brick plant, the Canadian concrete plants (Markham, Milton and Brampton), the Farmersburg, Indiana clay brick plant and the Wixom, Michigan concrete plant are the CGUs for purposes of the asset impairment tests. The standard requires that an impairment is determined based on the recoverable amount of the CGU. The recoverable amount is the higher of the amount determined under the "value in use" or "fair value less costs to sell" basis. An impairment charge is recognized when the carrying value of the CGU exceeds its recoverable amount. Under IFRS, an impairment loss for a CGU can be reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount, however the reversal of an impairment loss shall not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognized for the CGU in prior periods.
Under the previous GAAP methodology, which utilized undiscounted future cash flows to determine the recoverable amount, the asset impairment evaluations completed as at January 1, 2010 and December 31, 2010 indicated that there was no impairment of any of the Company's CGUs.
Under IFRS, discounted cash flows are utilized to determine the recoverable amount. The Company completed its asset impairment evaluations with respect to its Brampton clay brick plant, the Canadian concrete plants (Markham, Milton and Brampton) and the Wixom, Michigan concrete plant and concluded that there was no impairment as at January 1, 2010 or at December 31, 2010.
The asset impairment evaluation as at January 1, 2010 with respect to the Farmersburg, Indiana clay brick plant indicated an impairment and, accordingly, an impairment loss of $10,571 was recognized in the January 1, 2010 opening Consolidated Balance Sheet for property, plant and equipment. The loss was recorded in retained earnings.
The decrease in the carrying value of property, plant and equipment as at January 1, 2010 with respect to this impairment loss resulted in a decrease in depreciation expense of approximately $125 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, $252 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and $504 for the year ended December 31, 2010.
As at December 31, 2010, the Company evaluated the impairment loss recorded as at January 1, 2010 for possible reversal, and concluded that the impairment loss had reversed by an aggregate $885, net of exchange differences. The impairment loss decreased due to an improvement in the estimated future cash flows. The reversal of the loss was recorded in the Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss) in the fourth quarter of 2010.
c) Accounting for joint venture
The Company's 50% joint venture interest in Universal was accounted for under previous GAAP using the proportionate consolidation method. The Company's share of Universal's assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows were included in the consolidated financial statements on a line- by-line basis. Upon conversion to IFRS, the Company elected to account for this investment using the equity method of accounting. Under this method, the Company's net investment in Universal is now reflected on one line in the Consolidated Balance Sheet and its share of the equity income or loss and related cash inflows and outflows are reflected on one line in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss) and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, respectively.
Universal is a private company in Canada and is not required to comply with IFRS. However, the accounting policies of Universal have been reviewed and adjustments have been made for reporting purposes, where necessary, to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Company. On January 1, 2010, an impairment assessment of Universal's property, plant and equipment was performed in accordance with IAS 36, which resulted in an impairment charge that increased the loss that is shared by the joint venture partners under the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the Company recorded an increase in its share of the loss in Universal of $3,119 on transition to IFRS. The recoverability of Universal's property, plant and equipment was re-evaluated at December 31, 2010 in accordance with IAS 36 which resulted in a partial reversal of the impairment charge recorded as at January 1, 2010. This resulted in a reduction in the Company's share of the loss in Universal as at December 31, 2010 by $1,880 as compared to the previously reported share of loss under previous GAAP. The Company's share of loss in Universal measured under IFRS was $805 for the year ended December 31, 2010.
d) Foreign currency translation
The Company has concluded that the functional currency of its U.S. subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. The Company now translates all assets and liabilities included in the financial statements of its U.S. subsidiaries into Canadian dollars at current exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the period and translation gains or losses are reflected in other comprehensive income (loss).
Previously, non-monetary assets and liabilities were translated at historical exchange rates in effect at the dates of the transactions, revenues and expenses were translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the period and unrealized translation gains or losses were recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss).
The financial impact of this change was a decrease in the carrying value of current assets of $263 at January 1, 2010 and $241 at December 31, 2010, a decrease in the carrying value of property, plant equipment of $1,954 at January 1, 2010 and $4,708 at December 31, 2010. Other comprehensive loss decreased by $2,234 and decreased by $706 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010, respectively and increased by $2,616 for the year ended December 31, 2010.
In addition, the Company has elected, in accordance with the IFRS transitional provisions, to reset the cumulative translation adjustment account, which includes gains and losses arising from the translation of its U.S. subsidiaries prior to January 1, 2010, to zero. Accordingly, Accumulated other comprehensive loss and Retained earnings were each reduced by $3,829 as at January 1, 2010.
The Company's business is seasonal. Historically, sales are greater in the second and third quarters of each year than in the first and fourth quarters. The Landscape Products business segment is affected to a greater degree than the Masonry Products business. Consequently, the results of operations and cash flows for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
