“We finished the year on a strong note, as we delivered net sales growth of over 40% in the fourth quarter while also maintaining an exceptional EBITDA margin,” said Thomas Ennis, Amplify’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our financial performance in the quarter reflects the strong momentum for the SkinnyPop brand, as we continue to realize best-in-class velocities while simultaeously increasing our points of distribution and gaining market share across a wide range of sales channels. We recently expanded our product offerings with the launch of multiple new SkinnyPop flavors and the national launch of Paqui Tortilla Chips. We are very encouraged by initial consumer response to our newest products and brand and remain confident that we are well positioned to deliver solid top and bottom line growth in 2016.”
Three Months Ended December 31, 2015
Net sales increased 40.3% to $46.4 million compared to $33.0 million in the three months ended December 31, 2014. The increase in net sales reflects increased distribution and continued strong brand velocity across sales channels.
Gross profit was $26.2 million, or 56.5% of net sales, compared to $18.6 million, or 56.2% of net sales for the three months ended December 31, 2014. Gross margin for the three months ended December 31, 2015 benefitted from higher net price realization and improved rates on materials and ingredients, partially offset by a product mix shift as the Company expanded into higher cost product formats and flavors.

Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure used by the Company that makes certain adjustments to net income calculated under GAAP, increased 40.3% to $18.7 million from $13.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014, primarily reflecting higher net sales and gross profit, partially offset by higher Adjusted SG&A. The increase in Adjusted SG&A was primarily driven by infrastructure investments in personnel and systems, increased consumer marketing activities to drive brand awareness and trial, and new costs associated with operating as a public company. As a percentage of net sales, Adjusted EBITDA was 40.4% for both three month periods ended December 31.
GAAP net income was $4.4 million, or $0.06 per fully diluted share, compared to pro forma net income of $2.3 million, or $0.03 per fully diluted share, for the three months ended December 31, 2014. Adjusted net income, which is a non-GAAP financial measure used by the Company that makes certain adjustments to net income calculated under GAAP, was $9.5 million, or $0.13 per fully diluted share, compared to pro forma adjusted net income of $6.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014, or $0.09 per fully diluted share.
Full Year Ended December 31, 2015
Net sales for the full year ended December 31, 2015 increased 39.0% to $183.9 million compared to $132.4 million in fiscal 2014. Full year net sales growth was driven primarily by new distribution across sales channels and by an increase in brand level velocity.
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, increased 27.9% to $74.9 million from $58.5 million in fiscal 2014, primarily reflecting higher net sales and gross profit, partially offset by higher Adjusted SG&A. The increase in Adjusted SG&A was primarily driven by infrastructure investments in personnel and systems, increased consumer marketing activities to drive brand awareness and trial, and new costs associated with operating as a public company. Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales in fiscal 2015 was 40.7% compared to 44.2% in fiscal 2014.
GAAP net income was $9.9 million, or $0.13 per fully diluted share, compared to pro forma net income of $13.6 million, or $0.20 per fully diluted share, in fiscal 2014. The decrease in earnings was primarily due to the incurrence of costs related to the Company’s initial public offering which closed in August 2015. Adjusted net income, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $37.6 million, or $0.51 per fully diluted share, compared to pro forma adjusted net income of $28.5 million for fiscal 2014, or $0.42 per fully diluted share.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
As of December 31, 2015, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $18.8 million and net availability under its revolving line of credit of $25.0 million. Net debt, which the Company defines as outstanding indebtedness less cash and cash equivalents, was $182.3 million as of December 31, 2015, compared to $194.4 million as of December 31, 2014. Amplify’s leverage ratio as calculated under the Company’s credit facility was reduced to 2.4x trailing twelve month EBITDA at December 31, 2015, down from 2.8x at September 30, 2015.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains certain forward-looking statements regarding our performance, including in the section titled “Outlook.” Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or our future financial or operating performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “may”, “will”, “should”, “expects”, “plans”, “anticipates”, “could”, “intends”, “target”, “projects”, “contemplates”, “believes”, “estimates”, “predicts”, “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions that concern our expectations, strategy, plans or intentions. Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and are based on potentially inaccurate assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expected or implied by the forward-looking statements. If any such risks or uncertainties materialize or if any of the assumptions prove incorrect, our results could differ materially from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements we make.
The important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in any forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: (i) changes in consumer preferences and discretionary spending may have a material adverse effect on our brand loyalty, net sales, results of operations and financial condition, (ii) we rely on sales to a limited number of distributors and retailers for the substantial majority of our net sales, and the loss of one or more such distributors or retailers may harm our business, and (iii) sales of a limited number of SkinnyPop products and flavors contributed all of our historical profitability and cash flow and a reduction in the sale of our SkinnyPop products would have a material adverse effect on our ability to remain profitable and achieve future growth.
3
Further information on these and other factors that could affect our financial results and the forward-looking statements in this press release are included in our final prospectus related to our initial public offering filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 5, 2015 and in other filings we will make with the SEC from time to time, particularly under the caption Risk Factors.
You should not place undue reliance upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Amplify has based the forward-looking statements contained in this press release on its current expectations and projections about future events and trends that it believes may affect its business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. The forward-looking statements made in this press release relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. Amplify undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law.
Pro Forma Financials and Non-GAAP Measures
In order to aid understanding of Amplify’s business performance, it has presented results in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and has also presented Adjusted SG&A, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income and the corresponding earnings per share, which are non-GAAP measures that are explained and reconciled to the comparable GAAP measures in the tables included in this release. In addition, in comparing its results to the comparable periods of 2014, Amplify has presented financial results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2014 giving pro forma effect to the acquisition of Amplify’s predecessor in July 2014 (the “Sponsor Acquisition”), the incurrence of $50.0 million of borrowings under Amplify’s term loan under its credit agreement and the subsequent distribution of $59.8 million paid to its former parent entity (“Topco”) in December 2014 (the “December 2014 Special Dividend”) and the incurrence of $22.5 million of borrowings under Amplify’s term loan and revolving credit loan under its credit agreement and the subsequent distribution of $22.3 million paid to Topco in May 2015 (the “May 2015 Special Dividend”), as if such transactions had occurred on January 1, 2014. Unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations for the three months and year ended December 31, 2014, giving effect to the Sponsor Acquisition and the December 2014 and May 2015 Special Dividends, are included in the tables in this release.

Management believes that Adjusted SG&A, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income and the corresponding earnings per share, which are non-GAAP measurements, are meaningful to investors because they provide a view of the Company with respect to ongoing operating results. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income are not and should not be considered alternatives to net income or any other figure calculated in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of operating performance. The Company’s calculation of Adjusted SG&A, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income and the corresponding earnings per share may differ from methods used by other companies. Management believes that these non-GAAP measurements are important to help gain an understanding of the Company’s overall operating results in the periods presented. Such non-GAAP measurements are not recognized in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance. We have not reconciled our expected Adjusted EBITDA to net income under “Outlook” because we have not finalized our calculations of several factors necessary to provide the reconciliation, including net income, interest expense and income tax expense. In addition, certain items that impact net income and other reconciling metrics are out of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted at this time.
