Janus International Merger with Juniper Industrial Holdings

Ramey Jackson TD Ameritrade Interview Transcript

January 5, 2021

CORPORATE PARTICIPANTS

Ramey Jackson, Chief Executive Officer, Janus International Group

PRESENTATION

Nicole Petallides, TD Ameritrade

Welcome back to The Watch List, I’m Nicole Petallides, I’d like to welcome in Ramey Jackson, CEO of Janus International.

We must first explain to our friends watching that - getting this started by telling us a little bit about your company. I know it’s all about storage and more. Explain that as well as the merger that you’ve had with Juniper Holdings.

Ramey Jackson

Yeah well happy New Year and thanks for having me on Nicole. So Janus International is a global manufacturer and supplier of turnkey building solutions and also new technology for self-storage and the commercial warehousing industry. At Janus’s core we are a solutions and technology provider and we make a lot of great products around supporting that mission.

And in terms of the SPAC, the merger, we’re partnering with Juniper Industrial Holdings. If you know anything about that SPAC, its founders are Roger Fradin and Brian Cook.

These are former Honeywell executives. It was just a really good match for us as we as we look at our next phase of growth.

Nicole Petallides, TD Ameritrade

So when we talk about going beyond doors and gates and broader access control technologies, tell me more about that, explain that a little bit.

Ramey Jackson

Yeah, so we purchased a company called Noke, it’s a software company that we partnered with in terms of developing our wireless access control solution, so we’re a first mover in this technology and think about it as an ad based solution that allows tenants to onboard contact lists.

And think about it in the era of COVID and beyond. It’s very important and it also helps them manage access to their storage units digitally. It also provides an operational savings to the operator and it gives them the ability to drive rental rates based off of usage. And if you look at the opportunity that exists today, it’s pretty simple. There’s 22 million doors that are armed with padlocks, and you know, just doing some simple math, this provides a 4 billion dollar opportunity that we plan on executing over the next four years, for a few years, rather.

Nicole Petallides, TD Ameritrade

Rather, I see I see, yeah, so roughly a billion a year, I guess if you get to all those all those padlocked doors. Give me an example for a regular person, because you’re talking about that this is a four billion dollar market opportunity. Noke remote access, right? So I don’t have to go on my padlock. I don’t understand why is this so [inaudible word], how does this work for me? Somebody who wants to put some stuff in storage, why? Why do I care about this? Sell it to me.

Ramey Jackson

Great question. I’ll just use the commercial aspect of self-storage, so 20% of self-storage is commercial usage and I’ll use a tradesman at as an example. Think about you know, having a plumbing business and using self-storage as a warehouse, you know I can basically manage my keys. I can share keys digitally with you, I can know exactly who’s coming, who’s going.

Some of these sensors - our solution has a sensor on the inside of the unit that has basically a motion detector so I can tell if someone’s inside my unit, I can tell if there’s a fire in my unit, and I can just monitor all the activity as it pertains to my goods.

And also it’s a sign of the times, Nicole, think about it -

Nicole Petallides, TD Ameritrade

I see, so it’s really more -

Ramey Jackson

Yep.

Nicole Petallides, TD Ameritrade

Yeah, just to finish my thought, I didn’t mean to interrupt you there, but it’s basically I have a plumbing business. I have all kinds of tools and things that you might need. You’re my favorite plumber and I’m giving you the best job. And I’m also going to remotely give you the opportunity that you use your, I guess telephone or something and get to this storage unit and get in. Is that basically how this works?

Ramey Jackson

Correct, yes.

Nicole Petallides, TD Ameritrade

So, Replacement Remix Renovation, 3 R’s, what do we need to know about that?

Ramey Jackson

So the existing infrastructure - that’s basically our aftermarket business if you will, and in terms of self-storage the existing infrastructure is aging out.

So if you think about it, 60% of the facilities are over 20 years old, these facilities are in dire need of upgrading in order to compete with the new supply of the facilities today, so just a massive opportunity.

We started this segment of the business back in the recession, and look, it’s circa 150 million in revenue today and we honestly feel like it’s in early infancy stages of growth.

Nicole Petallides, TD Ameritrade

Right, right, it’s great to chat with you NYSE, right? That’s where we find you.

Ramey, thank you.

Ramey Jackson

Pardon me? Yes thanks a lot.

Nicole Petallides, TD Ameritrade

At the end, at the New York Stock Exchange right, it’s a New York Stock exchange traded company that it’ll be.

Thank you, Ramey Jackson, CEO Janus international. Thanks for joining us here on The Watch List.
