EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn., Oct. 19, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Winnebago Industries, Inc. (NYSE: WGO), a leading outdoor lifestyle product manufacturer, today reported financial results for the Company's fourth quarter and full year Fiscal 2022.

Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2022 Results
Revenues for the Fiscal 2022 fourth quarter ended August 27, 2022, were $1.2 billion, an increase of 13.8% compared to $1.0 billion for the Fiscal 2021 period. Revenues excluding the recently acquired Barletta business were $1.1 billion, representing an organic growth rate of 4.3% over the prior year period, primarily driven by pricing actions, partially offset by Towable unit declines. Gross profit was $210.4 million, an increase of 12.4% compared to $187.2 million for the Fiscal 2021 period. Gross profit margin decreased 30 basis points in the quarter to 17.8%, as a result of higher material and component costs and deleverage, partially offset by pricing actions. Operating income was $123.6 million for the quarter, an increase of 3.0% compared to $120.0 million for the fourth quarter of last year. Fiscal 2022 fourth quarter net income was $82.6 million, a decrease of 1.8% compared to $84.1 million in the prior year quarter. Reported earnings per diluted share was $2.61, compared to reported earnings per diluted share of $2.45 in the same period last year. Adjusted earnings per diluted share was $3.02, an increase of 14.0% compared to adjusted earnings per diluted share of $2.65 in the same period last year. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA was $139.2 million for the quarter, an increase of 7.9% compared to $129.0 million last year.

President and Chief Executive Officer Michael Happe commented, “Winnebago Industries capped off a record year in Fiscal 2022 with solid fourth quarter results. Our leading premium outdoor brands, distinguished by the golden threads of quality, innovation, and service, continue to resonate with our increasingly diverse outdoor recreation consumer base. We made important market advances in both the RV and marine industries, operating well in a volatile macroeconomic environment. I want to thank our entire Winnebago Industries team for their excellence in driving record gross margins and operating income, having successfully navigated supply chain disruptions and cost input inflation. Their efforts enabled our ability to return record cash to our shareholders during the year as well. While we expect uncertain market conditions to persist into our Fiscal 2023, we are confident that our transformed and evolving business platform positions us for continued success into the future.”

Full Year Fiscal 2022 Results
Fiscal 2022 represented record results with revenues of $5.0 billion increasing 36.6% from $3.6 billion in Fiscal 2021 driven by the recently acquired Barletta business, pricing actions and strong consumer demand for Winnebago Industries' products. Record gross profit margin of 18.7% improved 80 basis points year-over-year driven primarily by improved operating leverage and price increases, partially offset by higher material and component costs and production inefficiencies caused by supply constraints. Operating income was $583.5 million for Fiscal 2022, compared to $407.4 million in Fiscal 2021. Net income was $390.6 million, an increase of 38.6% compared to $281.9 million the prior year.

Towable Fourth Quarter and Full Year Fiscal 2022 Results
Revenues for the Towable segment were $494.2 million for the fourth quarter Fiscal 2022, down 11.8% from the prior year, primarily driven by a decline in unit volume partially offset by pricing actions. Segment Adjusted EBITDA was $53.2 million, down 36.2% from the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 10.8% decreased 410 basis points from the prior year reflecting higher material and component costs and deleverage, partially offset by pricing actions. Backlog decreased to $576.5 million, down 66.2% from the prior year due to normalized dealer inventories.

For the full year Fiscal 2022, revenues for the Towable segment were $2.6 billion, up 29.2% over Fiscal 2021 primarily driven by price increases related to higher material and component costs.

Adjusted EBITDA margin of 13.9% increased 270 basis points over the prior year due to pricing actions and production efficiencies, partially offset by higher material and component costs.

Backlog for the Marine segment was $314.7 million and remain elevated as low dealer inventories persist. The Barletta brand continued to outperform pro-forma expectations and deliver margins that are accretive to the Winnebago Industries portfolio.

For the full year Fiscal 2022, revenues for the Marine segment were $425.3 million, up $365.1 million from Fiscal 2021 driven by the addition of the Barletta business.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
As of August 27, 2022, the Company had total outstanding debt of $545.8 million ($600.0 million of debt, net of convertible note discount of $45.3 million, and net of debt issuance costs of $8.9 million) and working capital of $571.7 million. Cash flow from operations was $400.6 million in Fiscal 2022, an increase of $163.3 million compared to $237.3 million last year, driven by higher profitability, a $36.6 million increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities, and a $27.2 million increase in accounts payable to support the growth in the business, partially offset by a $171.3 million increase in inventory to support operational activities during a period impacted by continued supply chain challenges.

Winnebago Industries also secured an increased asset-based lending (ABL) credit facility of $350.0 million, replacing the previous ABL credit facility of $192.5 million, further enhancing the Company’s liquidity position.

Quarterly Cash Dividend and Share Repurchases
On August 17, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.27 per share payable on September 28, 2022, to common stockholders of record at the close of business on September 14, 2022. This represents a 50%, or $0.09 per share, increase from the prior dividend and follows the 50% increase that the Company announced in the prior year.

Additionally, in the fourth quarter Winnebago Industries’ Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase authorization of up to $350 million of the Company’s common stock. The share repurchase authorization replaces the previous $200 million share repurchase program that was fully depleted with $80.1 million of share repurchase completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, resulting in record quarterly cash of $85.8 million returned to shareholders.

Mr. Happe continued, “Looking ahead, our focused strategic priorities, strong premium brands, more diversified set of revenue streams, operational discipline, and especially our people will enable us to win in the marketplace, remain agile, and deliver robust profitability as we continue to chart our course through the next year. Winnebago Industries is entering Fiscal 2023 from a position of competitive and financial strength, and will be extremely flexible in balancing strategic investments in profitable growth opportunities and managing our balance sheet with responsibility. We look forward to showcasing our strategic progress and intentions, along with a future outlook on our business and industries at our upcoming investor day on November 15, 2022.”

Non-GAAP performance measures of Adjusted diluted earnings per share, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have been provided as comparable measures to illustrate the effect of non-recurring transactions occurring during the reported periods and to improve comparability of our results from period to period. Adjusted diluted earnings per share is defined as diluted earnings per share adjusted for after-tax items that impact the comparability of our results from period to period. EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense and other pretax adjustments made in order to present comparable results from period to period. Management believes Adjusted diluted earnings per share and Adjusted EBITDA provide meaningful supplemental information about our operating performance because these measures exclude amounts that we do not consider part of our core operating results when assessing our performance.

Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures (a) to evaluate historical and prospective financial performance and trends as well as assess performance relative to competitors and peers; (b) to measure operational profitability on a consistent basis; (c) in presentations to the members of our Board of Directors to enable our Board of Directors to have the same measurement basis of operating performance as is used by management in its assessments of performance and in forecasting and budgeting for the Company; (d) to evaluate potential acquisitions; and (e) to ensure compliance with restricted activities under the terms of our ABL credit facility and outstanding notes. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry.
