TARRYTOWN, N.Y., Feb. 04, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Prestige Consumer Healthcare Inc. (NYSE:PBH) today reported financial results for its third quarter and first nine months ended December 31, 2020.
“Our third quarter and year-to-date performance continues to reflect the many benefits of our leading and diverse portfolio of brands and our broad distribution. As expected, our diversification helped offset the declines in certain categories due to changes in consumer behavior resulting from COVID-19. Our proven business strategy translated stable revenue performance into solid earnings and cash flow growth year-to-date and is enabling us to raise our full fiscal 2021 outlook for sales and earnings,” said Ron Lombardi, Chief Executive Officer of Prestige Consumer Healthcare.
Third Fiscal Quarter Ended December 31, 2020
Reported revenues in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 decreased 1.1% to $238.8 million versus $241.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020. Revenues decreased 1.6% excluding the impact of foreign currency. The revenue performance for the quarter was driven by stable consumption across the majority of the Company’s portfolio, but offset by reduced consumption for certain brands where the category has been disrupted by the COVID-19 virus.
Reported net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 totaled $40.9 million, compared to the prior year quarter’s net income of $38.1 million and Non-GAAP adjusted net income of $41.2 million. Diluted earnings per share of $0.81 for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to $0.75 in the prior year comparable period, or $0.81 in the prior year on a Non-GAAP adjusted basis. The adjustment of net income in the third quarter fiscal 2020 included costs associated with a new logistics provider and location, loss on extinguishment of debt and the related income tax effects of the adjustments.
Nine Months Ended December 31, 2020
Reported revenues for the first nine months of fiscal 2021 totaled $705.6 million, a decrease of 0.9%, compared to revenues of $711.8 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2020. The revenue performance for the first nine months of fiscal 2021 was driven by stable consumption across the majority of the Company’s portfolio and a benefit associated with higher retailer order patterns to refill customer’s supply chains, offset by reduced consumption for certain brands where the category has been impacted by the COVID-19 virus.
Reported net income for the first nine months of fiscal 2021 totaled $129.2 million versus the prior year comparable period net income of $105.2 million. Diluted earnings per share were $2.55 for the first nine months of fiscal 2021 compared to $2.05 per share in the prior year comparable period. Non-GAAP adjusted net income for the first nine months of fiscal 2021 was $124.1 million, versus the prior year comparable period’s adjusted net income of $109.5 million. Non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share were $2.45 per share for the first nine months of fiscal 2021 compared to $2.14 in the first nine months of the prior year.
The adjustment of net income in the first nine months of fiscal 2021 related to the final regulations issued during the second fiscal quarter for certain tax elements imposed under the domestic Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which resulted in a one-time discrete benefit associated with the utilization of foreign tax credits. Adjustments to net income in the first nine months of fiscal 2020 included costs associated with a new logistics provider and location, loss on extinguishment of debt and the related income tax effects of the adjustments.
Free Cash Flow and Balance Sheet
The Company's net cash provided by operating activities for third quarter fiscal 2021 was $49.2 million, compared to $58.0 million during the prior year comparable period. Non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 was $43.5 million compared to $56.3 million in the prior year. The Company's net cash provided by operating activities for first nine months of fiscal 2021 was $176.5 million, an increase compared to $161.0 million during the prior year comparable period. Non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow in the first nine months of fiscal 2021 was $159.2 million compared to $154.3 million in the prior year. The change in free cash flow versus the prior year was attributable to higher operating income and lower interest costs.
The Company's net debt position as of December 31, 2020 was approximately $1.5 billion and the Company's covenant-defined leverage ratio was 4.2x. During the third quarter the Company accumulated cash & cash equivalents in lieu of debt reduction in anticipation of a debt refinancing during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021 and repurchased approximately $9 million in stock as authorized in the Company’s share repurchase program.
Segment Review
North American OTC Healthcare: Segment revenues of $210.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to the prior year comparable quarter's revenues of $214.9 million. The third quarter fiscal 2021 revenue performance was driven by consumption growth across many of the segment’s key brands, offset by a reduction in consumption for certain brands where the category consumption levels have been disrupted by the COVID-19 virus.
For the first nine months of the current fiscal year, reported revenues for the North American OTC Healthcare segment of $637.9 million compared to $639.6 million in the prior year comparable period. The slight decrease in revenue versus the prior year comparable period benefited from an increase in consumption levels for the majority of the Company’s core brand portfolio as well as a benefit in the first quarter associated with higher retailer order patterns to refill customer’s supply chains, offset by a reduction in consumption for certain brands where the category consumption levels have been impacted by the COVID-19 virus.
International OTC Healthcare: Segment fiscal third quarter 2021 revenues totaled $28.2 million, compared to $26.7 million reported in the prior year comparable period. The revenue increase versus the prior year related to increased demand for Hydralyte following an easing of shelter-at-home restrictions in Australia as well as a foreign currency benefit of approximately $1 million.
For the first nine months of the current fiscal year, reported revenues for the International OTC Healthcare segment were $67.8 million versus the prior year comparable period’s revenues of $72.2 million, driven by reduced consumption for certain brands impacted by the COVID-19 virus, such as Hydralyte.
Commentary and Outlook for Fiscal 2021
Ron Lombardi, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are pleased with our results through the first nine months of fiscal ’21. Our long-term brand and channel investments, as well as the power of a diversified portfolio, enabled us to win market share in many of our key categories and drove triple-digit eCommerce growth. These continued successful investments largely offset consumer behaviors stemming from the COVID-19 virus affecting demand in certain categories like cough & cold, motion sickness and head lice. Meanwhile, our financial profile and disciplined capital allocation strategy have enabled EPS, EBITDA, and free cash flow growth year-to-date during this very unique environment.”
“Our solid operating results and performance to date are enabling us to raise our revenue and EPS outlook for full-year fiscal 2021. The revenue update to approximately $935 million reflects a continuation of domestic trends we’ve experienced year-to-date, as well as a continued improvement in the International segment that we experienced as the third quarter progressed. We expect our strong and stable operating profile to leverage our revenues and drive high-single-digit earnings growth for fiscal 2021,” he continued.
| Current Fiscal 2021 Full-Year Outlook | Prior Fiscal 2021 Full-Year Outlook | |
| Revenue | Approximately $935 million | Approximately $925 million |
| Adjusted E.P.S. | Approximately $3.22 | Approximately $3.18 |
| Free Cash Flow | $207 million or more | $207 million or more |
“As we move forward, the business continues to perform well and is positioned solidly for fiscal 2022. We anticipate our ongoing brand-building strategy to drive significant value for our portfolio as we begin to lap COVID-impacted periods of the prior year. Meanwhile we anticipate our robust financial profile, enhanced by our disciplined capital deployment strategy, to continue creating long-term value for our stakeholders. These attributes keep us well positioned to deliver our long-term growth strategy, regardless of the operating environment,” Mr. Lombardi concluded.

In addition, we believe that the presentation of each of these NGFMs is useful to investors for period-to-period comparisons of results in assessing shareholder value, and we use these NGFMs internally to evaluate the performance of our personnel and also to evaluate our operating performance and compare our performance to that of our competitors.
These NGFMs are not in accordance with GAAP, should not be considered as a measure of profitability or liquidity, and may not be directly comparable to similarly titled NGFMs reported by other companies. These NGFMs have limitations and they should not be considered in isolation from or as an alternative to their most closely related GAAP measures reconciled below. Investors should not rely on any single financial measure when evaluating our business. We recommend investors review the GAAP financial measures included in this earnings release. When viewed in conjunction with our GAAP results and the reconciliations below, we believe these NGFMs provide greater transparency and a more complete understanding of factors affecting our business than GAAP measures alone.
NGFMs Defined
We define our NGFMs presented herein as follows:
- Non-GAAP Organic Revenues: GAAP Total Revenues excluding impact of foreign currency exchange rates in the periods presented.
- Non-GAAP Organic Revenue Change Percentage: Calculated as the change in Non-GAAP Organic Revenues from prior year divided by prior year Non-GAAP Organic Revenues.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin: GAAP Gross Profit minus certain transition and other costs associated with new warehouse.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin Percentage: Calculated as Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin divided by GAAP Total Revenues.
- Non-GAAP EBITDA: GAAP Net Income (Loss) before interest expense, net, income taxes provision (benefit), and depreciation and amortization.
- Non-GAAP EBITDA Margin: Calculated as Non-GAAP EBITDA divided by GAAP Total Revenues.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA: Non-GAAP EBITDA less certain transition and other costs associated with new warehouse.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA Margin: Calculated as Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA divided by GAAP Total Revenues.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income: GAAP Net Income (Loss) before certain transition and other costs associated with new warehouse, tax impact of adjustments, and normalized tax rate adjustment.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted EPS: Calculated as Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income, divided by the weighted average number of common and potential common shares outstanding during the period.
- Non-GAAP Free Cash Flow: GAAP Net cash provided by operating activities less cash paid for capital expenditures.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted Free Cash Flow: Non-GAAP Free Cash Flow plus cash payments made for transition and other costs associated with new warehouse.
- Net Debt: Calculated as total principal amount of debt outstanding ($1,560,000 at December 31, 2020) less cash and cash equivalents ($62,103 at December 31, 2020). Amounts in thousands.
The following tables set forth the reconciliations of each of our NGFMs (other than Net Debt, which is reconciled above) to their most directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP.
