Fourth Quarter Summary Comments
| |
• | Consolidated net sales increased $18.0 million or 3.0% from the prior-year quarter to $616.1 million. On an organic basis, sales increased 3.9% or $23.1 million year-over-year. The net impact of divesting several small office furniture companies decreased sales $5.1 million or 0.9% compared to the prior-year quarter. A reconciliation of organic sales, a non-GAAP measure, follows the financial statements in this release. |
| |
• | GAAP gross profit margin expanded 60 basis points compared to the prior-year quarter. On a non-GAAP basis, gross profit margin expanded 50 basis points year-over-year, driven by price realization and net productivity, partially offset by lower volume and higher input costs. |
| |
• | Selling and administrative expenses as a percent of sales decreased 50 basis points compared to the prior-year quarter. This decrease was primarily due to lower core SG&A spend and leverage from higher net sales, partially offset by higher variable compensation. |
| |
• | The Corporation recorded $1.2 million of restructuring costs in the fourth quarter in connection with structural realignments in the office furniture segment. In the prior-year quarter, the Corporation recorded $0.9 million of one-time costs associated with previously announced facility closures and structural realignments, as well as a $13.1 million impairment of goodwill, intangibles, and long-lived assets. |
| |
• | Non-GAAP net income per diluted share was $1.12 compared to $0.97 in the prior-year quarter. The $0.15 increase was due to price realization, net productivity, and lower core SG&A spend, partially offset by lower volume and higher input costs. |

Outlook
The Corporation estimates full year 2020 sales to be $2.30 billion to $2.35 billion, which represents growth of 2.5% to 4.5% versus the prior year. Full year non-GAAP earnings per diluted share is expected to be in the range of $2.60 to $2.90.
"Looking ahead to 2020, we expect solid revenue growth in both Office Furniture and Hearth Products. Our key markets are showing greater stability; our e-commerce efforts are driving growth; and our recent investments are generating results.
We expect higher volume and our annual productivity and cost savings initiatives to drive improvement in gross profit margin. In line with our long-term strategy, we are increasing our level of investment in key go-to-market initiatives. As a result, operating margin expansion will be less robust over the near-term. These initiatives will support top line growth, margin expansion, and free cash flow generation in the coming years. I am optimistic about the results we can drive in the future,” said Mr. Lorenger.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This earnings release includes certain non-GAAP financial information as defined by Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation G. Pursuant to the requirements of this regulation, reconciliations of this non-GAAP financial information to HNI’s financial statements as prepared in accordance with GAAP are included below and throughout this earnings release. This information gives investors additional insights into HNI’s financial performance and operations. While HNI’s management believes the non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating HNI’s operations, this information should be considered supplemental and not in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, limiting their usefulness for comparison purposes.
To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use the following non-GAAP financial measures within this earnings release: organic sales, gross profit, operating income, operating profit, income taxes, net income, and net income per diluted share (i.e., EPS). These measures are adjusted from the comparable GAAP measures to exclude the impacts of the selected items as summarized in the table below. Generally, non-GAAP EPS is calculated using HNI’s overall effective tax rate for the period, as this rate is reflective of the tax applicable to most non-GAAP adjustments.
The sales adjustments to arrive at our non-GAAP organic sales information included in this earnings release excludes the impact of closing and divesting small office furniture companies. The transactions excluded for purposes of our other non-GAAP financial information included in this earnings release for all periods presented include restructuring charges, impairment charges, and/or transition costs. Restructuring charges incurred in the current year periods presented are primarily comprised of severance costs related to a structural realignment in the office furniture segment. Transition costs incurred in connection with this realignment include member relocation costs. In the prior-year periods presented, costs were incurred as part of the previously announced closures of the hearth manufacturing facilities in Paris, Kentucky and Colville, Washington and the office furniture manufacturing facility in Orleans, Indiana, and structural realignments in China. Prior year restructuring charges include severance costs, while transition costs incurred include production move costs. Specific transactions in the prior-year periods include impairment of closed manufacturing facilities held for sale, a nonrecurring gain on the recovery of an impaired long-lived asset, and impairments of goodwill, intangibles, and other long-lived assets.
This earnings release also contains a forward-looking estimate of non-GAAP earnings per diluted share for fiscal year 2020. We provide such non-GAAP measures to investors on a prospective basis for the same reasons we provide it to investors on a historical basis. We are unable to provide a reconciliation of our forward-looking estimate of non-GAAP earnings per diluted share to a forward-looking estimate of GAAP earnings per diluted share without unreasonable efforts because certain information needed to make a reasonable forward-looking estimate of GAAP earnings per diluted share is highly variable and difficult to predict and estimate, and is dependent on future events which are uncertain or outside of our control. These may include unanticipated charges related to asset impairments (fixed assets, intangibles, or goodwill), unanticipated acquisition related costs, and other unanticipated nonrecurring items not reflective of ongoing operations. We expect the variability of these charges to have a potentially unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our GAAP earnings per diluted share.
