SANTA PAULA, Calif., June 08, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Calavo Growers, Inc. (Nasdaq-GS: CVGW), a global avocado-industry leader and growing provider of value-added fresh food, today reported its financial results for the second quarter ended April 30, 2020.

Second Quarter Highlights

• Total revenue of $281.2 million, essentially flat with fiscal second quarter 2019 despite a profound impact on volume from COVID-19.
• Gross profit of $22.1 million compared to $36.8 million last year.
• Net loss of $3.3 million and adjusted net income of $7.0 million.
• Diluted loss per share of $(0.19) and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.40.

Management Commentary
“We have been operating under extraordinary circumstances in the COVID-19 environment and I want to thank our employees for their steadfast commitment to serving our customers and operating at the highest standards every day,” said James E. Gibson, CEO of Calavo Growers. “Our sales were significantly impacted beginning in March by the closure of large restaurant chains, retail food outlets and the consumer shift to non-perishable foods at the onset of shelter in place restrictions. However, demand in our retail grocery and foodservice channels began to improve in April with further progress through May.”

Gibson continued, “Our Fresh segment was especially resilient during the quarter, with sales increasing 13.0% over last year, and gross profit per carton of avocados improving sequentially from Q1. As the economy gradually reopens, we expect demand to pick up across our Fresh, RFG and Foods segments, and our bottom line to return to pre-COVID-19 levels.”

“While we still have limited visibility into the duration and severity of COVID-19, we remain confident in our long-term growth prospects,” Gibson continued. “Throughout our 100-year history, Calavo has demonstrated leadership in the avocado and fresh food sectors regardless of shocks to the economy. Global demand for fresh avocados continues to grow rapidly and we are confident that our RFG and Foods segments are positioned to benefit from rising demand for fresh and prepared food categories. We have all the resources in place to capitalize on this tremendous market opportunity – an experienced leadership team, a robust operating platform, established relationships with blue-chip retailers and foodservice customers, and a strong balance sheet. We will continue to navigate through the pandemic while keeping our focus on delivering profitable growth and returns to our shareholders over the long term.”

Second Quarter Consolidated Financial Review  
Total revenue for the second quarter 2020 was $281.2 million as compared to $286.2 million for the second quarter 2019, representing a 1.8% decrease primarily due to lower sales volumes in the RFG and Foods business segments as a result of COVID-19.

Gross profit for the second quarter was $22.1 million, or 7.9% of revenue, as compared to $36.8 million, or 12.9% of revenue, for the same period last year. The decrease was attributable to gross profit declines in the Fresh and Foods segments.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense for the second quarter totaled $14.5 million, or 5.2% of revenue, as compared to $15.7 million, or 5.5% of revenue, for the same period last year. The year-over-year improvement in SG&A expense was primarily related to lower performance-based compensation. During the quarter, the Company also began an SG&A rationalization program which initially led to a reduction in headcount at the end of the quarter and is expected to generate continued SG&A savings in the second half of fiscal 2020.

Net loss for the second quarter 2020 was $3.3 million, or $(0.19) per diluted share. This compares with net income of $16.3 million, or $0.93 per diluted share for the same period last year. Second quarter 2020 results included a $10.3 million non-cash, unrealized loss related to the Company’s ownership interest in Limoneira Company. The Company’s loss from unconsolidated subsidiaries narrowed to $2.2 million in the most-recent quarter from $3.1 million one year earlier.

Adjusted net income, which excludes certain items impacting comparability such as non-cash gains or losses from unconsolidated subsidiaries and transaction related expenses, was $7.0 million, or $0.40 per diluted share for the second quarter, compared to adjusted net income of $16.5 million, or $0.94 per diluted share, for the same period last year.

Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure as described below and in an accompanying financial table in this release, was $14.4 million for the second quarter of 2020, compared to $26.7 million for the same period last year.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $3.3 million as of April 30, 2020. Total liquidity at quarter end was approximately $110 million, including cash, investments, and borrowings available under its line of credit.

The Company ended the quarter with $51.1 million of total debt, which included $45.0 million in short-term borrowings. The increase in borrowings compared to the end of Q1 2020 was primarily related to the approximately $19 million acquisition of SFFI in February 2020.

Second Quarter Business Segment Performance
Fresh
Second quarter 2020 sales in Calavo’s Fresh business segment increased 13.0% to $170.9 million from $151.2 million in the same period last year. While revenue increased year-over-year, growth was constrained by the impact of COVID-19. Sales volume fell sharply in mid-March as foodservice orders declined and consumers shifted to purchasing non-perishable goods. Following the initial impact of COVID-19, as consumers began to shift back to more normal buying patterns at retail grocery outlets and as the foodservice industry began to open for take-out and delivery, demand in the Fresh segment began to normalize in April and that continued in May. Fresh segment gross profit declined to $14.4 million, or 8.4% of segment sales, from $27.8 million, or 18.4% of segment sales, in the second quarter of 2019. The decrease was due to a $3.4 million impact from foreign currency remeasurement resulting from the rapid devaluation of the Mexican peso as well as losses stemming from COVID-19 related order cancellations. Excluding these two factors, profit per carton on avocado sales compared favorably to historical averages, though it was down from last year’s second quarter when favorable conditions rose well above historic levels. On a sequential basis, the quality of avocados improved relative to the first quarter of 2020, resulting in higher pricing and gross profit per carton compared to the prior period.

Renaissance Food Group (RFG)
RFG business segment sales in the second quarter 2020 were $93.5 million, down 18.0% from $114.0 million in the same period last year, principally due to the previously announced closure of the Company’s co-packing partner in the Midwest in March 2020 and lower consumer demand for certain of RFG’s short-shelf life prepared food items as a result of COVID-19. These co-packing losses were partially offset by increased sales related to the opening of the Georgia facility in April 2019 and the acquisition of SFFI in February 2020. Segment gross profit improved to $2.7 million, or 2.9% of segment sales, for the second quarter 2020, from $2.5 million, or 2.2% of segment sales, for the same period last year. While manufacturing margins in company-operated facilities improved year-over-year, these gains were constrained by lower overhead absorption resulting from COVID-19 related volume declines. Newer production facilities in Georgia and the Pacific Northwest also continue to generate improving margins on both a year-over-year and sequential basis. However, lower sales and certain shut-down costs related to the closure of RFG’s Midwest co-packer weighed on total segment gross profit.

Foods
Sales from the Foods segment totaled $17.9 million for the second quarter 2020 down from $22.0 million in the same period last year due to lower volume as a result of cancelled orders and shipment delays following the onset of COVID-19. Segment gross profit totaled $4.9 million, or 27.6% of sales, for the second quarter as compared to $6.5 million, or 29.7% of sales, for the same period last year. The decline in gross profit for the second quarter was due to an increase in fruit input costs, slightly offset by a decrease in overhead costs from production efficiencies and a weaker Mexican peso.

Simply Fresh Fruit
RFG completed the previously announced acquisition of SFFI on February 14, 2020. SFFI increases RFG’s presence in the hospitality and foodservice categories, adding diversification to RFG’s retail focus. In April 2020, Calavo integrated SFFI into RFG.

COVID-19 Update
Calavo’s top priority remains the health and safety of its employees as they carry on their essential roles in helping supply food during this unprecedented time. At the onset of pandemic, the Company took immediate action under CDC guidelines to ensure a safe working environment across all its facilities, distribution centers and packing houses. In addition to strict food-safe standards already in place, Calavo implemented extra sanitation practices across facilities, common areas, breakrooms and offices. The Company also organized employees in smaller teams and created additional common areas to increase social distancing. These efforts have allowed Calavo to minimize supply chain disruptions and safely serve its customers during this challenging time. All of Calavo’s facilities currently remain open and operational as the Company continues to actively monitor the fluid situation and adapt as necessary to ensure business continuity.

2020 Outlook
Given the evolving and uncertain impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company is withdrawing its prior fiscal 2020 guidance. Gibson commented, “Calavo serves a blue-chip customer base comprised of many of the largest and most stable retailers, mass merchandisers and foodservice providers in the US, which positions us well to continue to deliver profitable growth once economic conditions normalize. To that end we remain cautiously optimistic as we start to see retail volumes beginning to strengthen and orders from foodservice customers rebounding off crisis-lows. As we look ahead into the third quarter of fiscal 2020, we expect adjusted EBITDA to improve sequentially from a combination of higher sales volumes and lower input costs due to seasonality.”

____________
(a)  For the three months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019, FreshRealm incurred losses totaling $5.1 million and $7.4 million, of which we recorded $1.9 million and $2.6 million of non-cash losses during our second fiscal quarter of 2020 and 2019.  For the six months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019, FreshRealm incurred losses totaling $14.4 million and $18.7 million, of which we recorded $5.4 million and $9.5 million of non-cash losses during the six months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019.  For the three months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019, we incurred losses from Agricola Don Memo totaling $0.3 million and $0.5 million. For the six months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019, we incurred income from Agricola Don Memo totaling $0.2 million and $0.1 million. Certain details regarding FreshRealm will be included in Calavo’s annual report on Form 10-Q soon to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

(b)  During the second quarter of fiscal 2019, we sold our Temecula, Calif., packinghouse for $7.1 million in cash and, concurrently, leased back a portion of the facility representing approximately one-third of the total square footage. This generated a gain of $6.4 million. Since our leaseback of the building is classified as a capital lease and covers substantially all of the leased property, the gain recognized currently is the amount of the gain in excess of the recorded amount of the leased asset. As a result, we recognized a gain of approximately $1.9 million ($1.6 million, net of transaction costs (primarily sales commissions) totaling $0.4 million) in the second quarter and recorded a deferred gain of $4.5 million, which will be recognized over the life of the lease (i.e. straight-line over 15 years).

(c)  Second quarter of fiscal 2020 results include higher stock-based compensation expense related to senior management transitions, which does not impact the underlying cost structure of the company.

(d)  In fiscal 2020, we incurred expenses related to the acquisition of SFFI Company, Inc. doing business as Simply Fresh Fruit (SFFI).  SFFI is a processor and supplier of a broad line of fresh-cut fruit, principally serving the foodservice and hospitality markets.  The acquisition was closed on February 14, 2020.

(e)  In the second quarter of 2020, we recorded $10.3 million in unrealized losses related to mark-to-market adjustments in the fair value of our investment in Limoneira (LMNR) common stock.  In the second quarter of 2019, we recorded $1.4 million in unrealized gains related to these mark-to-market adjustments.  For the six months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019, we recorded $9.3 million and $3.1 million in unrealized losses related to these mark-to-market adjustments.

(f)  Tax impact of non-GAAP adjustments are based on the prevailing year-to-date tax rates in each period and adjusted for any one-time tax charges.
