Record fiscal 2023 second-quarter sales were driven by increased pricing in response to continued inflation. In addition, volume grew in businesses that are benefiting from reshoring and infrastructure spending, and material supply improved through insourcing and qualifying new suppliers.

Geographically, demand was strong in the U.S. across a number of businesses and was solid in emerging markets. Demand in Europe, which accounted for 13.5% of sales, was weak as the region continued to be challenged by high inflation and difficult macroeconomic conditions.

Sales included 12.4% organic growth, 1.0% growth from acquisitions, and foreign currency translation headwinds of 4.1%.

Record fiscal 2023 second-quarter adjusted EBIT was driven by strong sales growth as well as MAP 2025 benefits, primarily from manufacturing and commercial improvement initiatives. Partially offsetting this growth were weakness in Europe, the negative impact of foreign currency translation and continued material cost inflation.

CPG’s record fiscal second-quarter sales were driven by strength in restoration systems for commercial roofing, facades, and parking structures. Admixtures and repair products for concrete continued to gain market share, resulting in sales growth. Price increases in response to continued inflation also contributed to growth. Partially offsetting this growth were continued weak demand in Europe and reduced demand for businesses that serve the new residential home construction market. These pressures became more pronounced late in the fiscal 2023 second quarter. Foreign currency translation also negatively impacted growth.

Sales included 6.9% organic growth, 1.5% growth from acquisitions, and foreign currency translation headwinds of 5.2%.

EBIT declined 40.0% primarily as a result of a $41.9 million gain recognized in the fiscal 2022 second quarter related to the sale of real estate assets that did not reoccur in the fiscal 2023 second quarter. This gain was excluded from adjusted EBIT in the fiscal 2022 second quarter.

In addition to the CPG sales headwinds, adjusted EBIT was also negatively impacted by unfavorable mix and reduced fixed cost leverage at plants, including the Corsicana, Texas facility, which was acquired in the fiscal 2022 second quarter.

PCG generated record fiscal second-quarter sales supported by volume growth across most of its businesses and price increases in response to continued cost inflation. Flooring systems, protective coatings, and fiberglass reinforced plastic grating all generated double-digit sales growth, fueled by a strong demand from manufacturing customers, due in part to reshoring. Energy market demand also contributed to growth.

Sales included 15.4% organic growth, 0.6% from acquisitions, and foreign currency translation headwinds of 5.2%.

SPG’s record second-quarter sales were led by strength in food coatings and additives as a result of strategically refocusing sales management and selling efforts. Additionally, the disaster restoration business benefited from the response to Hurricane Ian, where its ability to quickly meet increasing demand was aided by prior operational improvement investments. Price increases in response to continued cost inflation also contributed to sales growth.

Sales included 11.5% organic growth, 0.9% growth from acquisitions, and foreign currency translation headwinds of 2.9%.

The Consumer Group’s record second-quarter sales were driven by selling price increases to catch up with continued cost inflation and strong sales growth in North America.

Sales included 17.5% organic growth, 0.4% growth from acquisitions and foreign currency translation headwinds of 2.6%.

Adjusted EBIT growth was driven by MAP 2025 operational initiatives that were realized as a result of improved material supply, as well as strong sales growth. Additionally, the Consumer Group experienced extraordinarily low profitability in the prior-year period due to severe supply chain disruptions resulting from a plant explosion at an alkyd resin supplier and high material cost inflation, which was not offset by commensurate price increases. The low profitability in fiscal 2022 second quarter contributed to the strong year-over-year adjusted EBIT growth in the fiscal 2023 second quarter.

Cash Flow and Financial Position

During the six months of fiscal 2023:

 

•

Cash provided by operating activities was $190.9 million compared to $159.4 million during the prior-year period. The increase was driven by higher earnings partially offset by increased inventory purchases in the fiscal 2023 first quarter designed to improve supply chain resiliency. During the fiscal 2023 second quarter, raw material purchases began normalizing.

 

•

Capital expenditures were $113.5 million compared to $101.4 million during the prior-year period driven by organic growth opportunities and MAP 2025 efficiency programs.

 

•

The company returned $130.6 million to shareholders through cash dividends and share repurchases. During the second quarter of fiscal 2023, RPM increased its annual dividend to $1.68 per share, representing the 49th consecutive year of dividend increases.

As of November 30, 2022:

 

•

Total debt was $2.84 billion compared to $2.47 billion a year ago. The increase was driven by increased working capital needs designed to improve supply chain resiliency.

January 5, 2023

Page 5

 

•

Total liquidity, including cash and committed revolving credit facilities, was $880.0 million, compared to $1.32 billion a year ago. The decline was driven by a temporary increase in inventories to navigate recent supply chain challenges, which is expected to begin normalizing in the third quarter of fiscal year 2023.

Business Outlook

“While long-term visibility remains limited, economic conditions have recently become increasingly challenging as higher interest rates have negatively impacted construction activity, existing home sales, and overall economic activity. Additionally, some customers are temporarily moderating purchases as they normalize inventories in response to a more stable supply chain. As a result, certain RPM businesses have experienced reduced customer demand, a trend that is expected to continue throughout the third quarter. When combined with headwinds from foreign currency translation and inflation, we are forecasting year-over-year adjusted EBIT growth to slow or possibly modestly decline for the first time in five quarters,” Sullivan added.

“RPM is well positioned to successfully navigate this near-term volatility. By leveraging the strengths of our strategically balanced portfolio of businesses and focusing on the execution of our MAP 2025 initiatives, we are confident in our ability to continue creating long-term value,” he concluded.

The company expects in the fiscal year 2023 third quarter:

 

•

Consolidated sales to increase in the low-single-digit to mid-single-digit percentage range compared to prior-year record results.

 

•

CPG sales to decline in the low-single-digit to mid-single-digit percentage range compared to prior-year record results.

 

•

PCG sales to increase in the high-single-digit to low-double-digit percentage range compared to prior-year record results.

 

•

SPG sales to be flat compared to prior-year record results.

 

•

Consumer Group sales to increase in the mid-single-digit percentage range compared to prior-year record results.

 

•

Consolidated adjusted EBIT to be between $75 million and $85 million, which includes the impact of continued year-over-year inflation and foreign currency translation headwinds, compared to a record $80.6 million in the fiscal year 2022 third quarter.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

To supplement the financial information presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“GAAP”) in this earnings release, we use EBIT, adjusted EBIT and adjusted earnings per share, which are all non-GAAP financial measures. EBIT is defined as earnings (loss) before interest and taxes, with adjusted EBIT and adjusted earnings per share provided for the purpose of adjusting for one-off items impacting revenues and/or expenses that are not considered by management to be indicative of ongoing operations. We evaluate the profit performance of our segments based on income before income taxes, but also look to EBIT as a performance evaluation measure because interest expense is essentially related to corporate functions, as opposed to segment operations. For that reason, we believe EBIT is also useful to investors as a metric in their investment decisions. EBIT should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, income before income taxes as determined in accordance with GAAP, since EBIT omits the impact of interest and investment income or expense in determining operating performance, which represent items necessary to our continued operations, given our level of indebtedness. Nonetheless, EBIT is a key measure expected by and useful to our fixed income investors, rating agencies and the banking community all of whom believe, and we concur, that this measure is critical to the capital markets’ analysis of our segments’ core operating performance. We also evaluate EBIT because it is clear that movements in EBIT impact our ability to attract financing. Our underwriters and bankers consistently require inclusion of this measure in offering memoranda in conjunction with any debt underwriting or bank financing. EBIT may not be indicative of our historical operating results, nor is it meant to be predictive of potential future results. See the financial statement section of this earnings release for a reconciliation of EBIT and adjusted EBIT to income before income taxes, and adjusted earnings per share to earnings per share. We have not provided a reconciliation of our third-quarter fiscal 2023 adjusted EBIT guidance because material terms that impact such measure are not in our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted, and therefore a reconciliation of such measure is not available without unreasonable effort.

We evaluate the profit performance of our segments based on income before income taxes, but also look to EBIT, or adjusted EBIT, as a performance evaluation measure because interest expense is essentially related to corporate functions, as opposed to segment operations. For that reason, we believe EBIT is also useful to investors as a metric in their investment decisions. EBIT should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, income before income taxes as determined in accordance with GAAP, since EBIT omits the impact of interest and investment income or expense in determining operating performance, which represent items necessary to our continued operations, given our level of indebtedness. Nonetheless, EBIT is a key measure expected by and useful to our fixed income investors, rating agencies and the banking community all of whom believe, and we concur, that this measure is critical to the capital markets’ analysis of our segments’ core operating performance. We also evaluate EBIT because it is clear that movements in EBIT impact our ability to attract financing. Our underwriters and bankers consistently require inclusion of this measure in offering memoranda in conjunction with any debt underwriting or bank financing. EBIT may not be indicative of our historical operating results, nor is it meant to be predictive of potential future results.
