RPM Reports Record Results for Fiscal 2023 First Quarter

RPM International Inc. (NYSE: RPM), a world leader in specialty coatings, sealants and building materials, today reported financial results for its fiscal 2023 first quarter ended August 31, 2022.

“I am proud of RPM associates’ ability to generate record first-quarter consolidated sales and adjusted EBIT. Our businesses skillfully navigated supply chain tightness, cost inflation, macroeconomic challenges and foreign exchange headwinds to expand margins and deliver record first-quarter financial results. In addition, they have continued to implement MAP operational improvement initiatives, with a positive impact on our top and bottom lines,” commented RPM Chairman and CEO Frank C. Sullivan.

“All four of our segments achieved double-digit sales growth driven by our procurement and technical teams’ ability to increase material supply through insourcing and qualifying new suppliers. Additionally, pricing was managed by implementing increases to catch up with persistent cost inflation. Three out of our four segments generated strong adjusted EBIT growth, led by our Consumer Group, which benefited from MAP operational efficiencies that were enhanced by our ability to improve material supply. While the global macroeconomic outlook is uncertain, we believe that our MAP 2025 initiatives, diversified business model and strategic focus on maintenance and restoration position us well for the future,” he added.

Record sales were driven by improving material supply through insourcing and qualifying new suppliers. Price increases across all segments helped offset foreign exchange headwinds and cost inflation, which remained elevated. Geographically, demand was strong in the U.S. and in emerging markets. European demand was weak during the quarter as the region experienced increasing inflation and other macroeconomic headwinds. Sales included 19.5% of organic growth, 1.0% growth from acquisitions and foreign currency translation headwinds of 3.4%.

In addition to strong sales growth, record fiscal 2023 first-quarter adjusted EBIT benefited from $30 million in MAP 2025 savings as improved material supply allowed savings from operational initiatives to be realized.

CPG’s record sales were driven by roofing systems, which benefited from increased public sector spending, its turn-key service model and focus on renovations. Admixtures and repair products for concrete generated strong sales growth and grew share. Pricing management in response to persistent cost inflation and strength in Asia-Pacific markets also contributed to revenue growth. Sales included 15.8% of organic growth, 1.9% growth from acquisitions and foreign currency translation headwinds of 4.5%.

Adjusted EBIT was pressured by a slowdown in Europe where cost pressures were severe, and volumes deteriorated as macroeconomic conditions worsened during the quarter. In Canada, profitability was reduced by inefficiencies, which resulted from a transportation strike and concrete shortages that impeded the completion of construction projects. Foreign currency and mix were headwinds to profitability. CPG also incurred a negative financial impact from the Corsicana plant as the facility ramps up production toward full capacity.

PCG’s record sales were driven by double-digit growth in flooring systems, protective coatings and fiberglass reinforced plastic grating, all of which are strategically well-positioned to benefit from the trend of reshoring manufacturing to the U.S. Additionally, energy market demand was strong. Emerging markets’ strength, pricing and improved sales management contributed to the record revenue as well. Sales included 23.6% of organic growth, no impact from acquisitions and foreign currency translation headwinds of 4.4%.

Record first-quarter adjusted EBIT was driven by volume growth, selling price increases and favorable mix resulting from digital sales management tools, which were partially offset by foreign exchange headwinds.

SPG’s record sales were driven by strength in food coatings and additives, which benefited from a new management team that has positioned the business to profit from increased institutional demand as pandemic-related restrictions eased. Revenues continued to grow in SPG’s disaster restoration business as it worked through backlogs created by previous semiconductor chip shortages. Selling prices increased across most product lines in response to continued cost inflation. Sales included 12.8% of organic growth, 0.6% growth from acquisitions and foreign currency translation headwinds of 2.1%.

Record adjusted EBIT was driven by improved sales and pricing management, as well as increased fixed cost leverage from higher production volume at the disaster restoration business.

Material supply, particularly alkyd resins, improved during the quarter from insourcing and qualifying new suppliers, and resulted in record sales. Sales also benefited from price increases to catch up with persistent cost inflation. Sales included 24.1% of organic growth, 0.4% growth from acquisitions and foreign currency translation headwinds of 2.0%.

The increase in adjusted EBIT was driven by MAP operational initiatives that were realized as a result of improved material supply conditions and price increases in response to continued cost inflation, which resulted in adjusted EBIT margins approaching long-term averages. Additionally, the Consumer Group experienced extraordinarily low profitability last year due to severe supply chain disruptions resulting from a plant explosion at an alkyd resin supplier, which contributed to the high year-over-year adjusted EBIT growth in the 2023 fiscal first quarter.

Cash Flow and Financial Position

During the fiscal 2023 first quarter:

• Cash provided by operating activities was $23.6 million compared to $76.1 million during the prior-year period. Despite higher earnings, the decrease was driven by inventory increases designed to build supply chain resiliency.
• Capital expenditures were $57.8 million compared to $51.9 million during the prior-year period driven by organic growth opportunities and MAP 2025 efficiency programs.
• The company returned $76.4 million to shareholders through cash dividends and share repurchases.

As of August 31, 2022:

• Total debt was $2.84 billion compared to $2.43 billion a year ago.
• Total liquidity, including cash and committed revolving credit facilities, was $1.15 billion, compared to $1.38 billion a year ago. RPM’s liquidity remains high, enabling it to manage supply chain challenges while continuing to invest in MAP operational improvements, acquisitions and organic growth opportunities.

On August 1, 2022, the company amended its revolving credit facility to increase the size of the facility to $1.35 billion from $1.30 billion and extended the term of the facility to August 1, 2027.

Also on August 1, 2022, the company extended the maturity of its term loan from February 21, 2023, to August 1, 2025, and prepaid $50 million. The term loan’s remaining principal is $250 million.

Business Outlook

For the second quarter of fiscal 2023, the company expects:

• Consolidated sales growth of 9% to 12% compared to the prior-year period.
• CPG to achieve sales growth in the high-single-digit percentage range as commercial and infrastructure construction activity is anticipated to remain positive and pricing management contributes to growth, partially offset by macroeconomic weakness in Europe.
• PCG sales to increase in the high-single-digit to low-double-digit percentage range driven by strength in energy markets, reshoring of manufacturing to the U.S. and government infrastructure spending.
• SPG revenue to increase in the high-single-digit percentage range as the segment benefits from continued strength in food coatings and additives and has a more efficient supply chain compared to the prior-year period when it suffered from semiconductor chip supply shortages.
• The Consumer Group to lead revenue growth with sales up in the teen percentage range as a result of improved material supply, pricing management, and a favorable comparison to the 2022 fiscal second quarter when sales were depressed by alkyd resin shortages from an explosion at a supplier’s plant.
• Consolidated adjusted EBIT to increase by 30% to 40% compared to the prior-year period.

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 second-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.

Forward-Looking Statements

These forward-looking statements, or other statements made by us, are made based on our expectations and beliefs concerning future events impacting us and are subject to uncertainties and factors (including those specified below), which are difficult to predict and, in many instances, are beyond our control.

These uncertainties and factors include (a) global markets and general economic conditions, including uncertainties surrounding the volatility in financial markets, the availability of capital, and the viability of banks and other financial institutions; (b) the prices, supply and availability of raw materials, including assorted pigments, resins, solvents, and other natural gas-and oil-based materials; packaging, including plastic and metal containers; and transportation services, including fuel surcharges; (c) continued growth in demand for our products; (d) legal, environmental and litigation risks inherent in our construction and chemicals businesses and risks related to the adequacy of our insurance coverage for such matters; (e) the effect of changes in interest rates; (f) the effect of fluctuations in currency exchange rates upon our foreign operations; (g) the effect of non-currency risks of investing in and conducting operations in foreign countries, including those relating to domestic and international political, social, economic and regulatory factors; (h) risks and uncertainties associated with our ongoing acquisition and divestiture activities; (i) the timing of and the realization of anticipated cost savings from restructuring initiatives and the ability to identify additional cost savings opportunities; (j) risks related to the adequacy of our contingent liability reserves; (k) risks relating to the Covid pandemic; (l) risks related to adverse weather conditions or the impacts of climate change and natural disasters; (m) risks relating to the Russian invasion of Ukraine and other wars;(n) risks related to data breaches and data privacy violations; and (o) other risks detailed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2022, as the same may be updated from time to time.
