Installed Building Products Reports Record Second Quarter 2020 Results

COLUMBUS, Ohio–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Installed Building Products, Inc. (the “Company” or “IBP”) (NYSE:IBP), an industry-leading installer of insulation and complementary building products, today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020.

Second Quarter 2020 Highlights (Comparisons are to Prior Year Period)

• Net revenue increased 6.0% to a second quarter record of $393.9 million, despite reduced volume associated with branches temporarily closed during the quarter
• Residential sales increased 5.6%
• Large commercial sales increased 7.5%
• Net income increased 33.9% to a record $25.3 million
• Adjusted EBITDA* increased 27.1% to a record $63.1 million
• Net income per diluted share increased 36.5% to $0.86
• Adjusted net income per diluted share* increased 28.7% to $1.12
• Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended June 30, 2020 increased 90.7% to $69.6 million
• At June 30, 2020, IBP had $269.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, and investments, with nothing drawn on the existing $200 million revolving line of credit
• In June 2020, acquired Nationwide Gutter, LLC, a Texas based provider of gutter installation and repair services primarily to multi-family and commercial customers, with annual revenue of approximately $5.2 million

“Despite the unprecedented challenges caused by the COVID-19 health crisis, IBP achieved multiple milestones for the 2020 second quarter including record second quarter sales and profitability,” stated Jeff Edwards, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “These record results demonstrate the success of our ongoing geographic, end-market, and end-product diversification strategies, the benefits of our pricing strategies, and the hard work and dedication of our employees. In addition, the homebuilding industry has rebounded quickly during the second quarter and we experienced significant growth in our multi-family and commercial end-markets during the quarter. Based on our record second quarter results, current industry backlogs, and our solid liquidity position, we started closing transactions from our strong acquisition pipeline in June”.

“Across our national footprint, our branches continue to follow federal, state, and local requirements in response to COVID-19. At the start of the second quarter, several of our branches where construction was not deemed essential were closed, which impacted revenue by approximately $10 million to $12 million. Operations have resumed across all IBP branches, but several recently re-opened locations are not yet at full capacity. We continue to closely monitor the evolving COVID-19 crisis and we will make the necessary adjustments to protect and support our employees and customers across the country”.

“While overall housing trends have improved significantly from April and May of this year, our single-family market demand may be temporarily impacted by the normal lag between starts and completions as a result of the market disruptions that occurred during the early stages of the pandemic. We believe that IBP’s growing presence within the multi-family and commercial end markets and the industry backlog of single-family units under construction, combined with our acquisition strategy, will help us navigate any near-term softness created by the April and May declines in single-family housing starts. Overall, our operating and financial results continue to demonstrate the compelling business model we have created, which has allowed us to effectively respond to recent market conditions, while also providing IBP with a strong platform for long-term value creation,” concluded Mr. Edwards.

Second Quarter 2020 Results Overview

For the second quarter of 2020, net revenue was $393.9 million, an increase of 6.0% from $371.8 million in the second quarter of 2019. On a same branch basis, net revenue improved 2.3% from the prior year quarter. Residential same branch sales growth was 2.5% in the quarter, attributable to price gains and more favorable customer and product mix, compared to a decline in total completions of 2.9%. Our large commercial construction end-market increased 7.5% for the second quarter of 2020.

Gross profit improved 18.5% to $127.1 million from $107.3 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted gross profit* as a percent of total revenue was the highest we have reported as a public company of 32.4% which adjusts for the Company’s share-based compensation expense, branch start-up costs and employee-related expenses associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, compared to 29.0% for the same period last year. Selling and administrative expense, as a percent of net revenue, was 19.8% compared to 18.9% in the prior year quarter. Adjusted selling and administrative expense*, as a percent of net revenue, was 18.9% compared to 18.2% in the prior year quarter. This increase was attributable to higher variable employee expenses and insurance reserves.

Net income was $25.3 million, or $0.86 per diluted share, compared to $18.9 million, or $0.63 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. Adjusted net income* was $33.2 million, or $1.12 per diluted share, compared to $25.9 million, or $0.87 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. Adjusted net income adjusts for the impact of non-core items in both periods, including COVID-19 expenses and an addback for non-cash amortization expense related to acquisitions.

Adjusted EBITDA* was $63.1 million, a 27.1% increase from $49.6 million in the prior year quarter, largely due to higher sales and improved gross profit margin compared to the prior year quarter.

*Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), this press release contains the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin (i.e., Adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenue), Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income per diluted share, Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Selling and Administrative expense. The reasons for the use of these measures, reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income per diluted share, Adjusted Gross Profit, and Adjusted Selling and Administrative expense to the most directly comparable GAAP measures and other information relating to these measures are included below following the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for IBP’s financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Selling and Administrative Expense measure performance by adjusting EBITDA, GAAP net income, gross profit and selling and administrative expense, respectively, for certain income or expense items that are not considered part of our core operations. We believe that the presentation of these measures provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations because it assists both investors and us in analyzing and benchmarking the performance and value of our business.

We believe the Adjusted EBITDA measure is useful to investors and us as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period as it measures our changes in pricing decisions, cost controls and other factors that impact operating performance, and removes the effect of our capital structure (primarily interest expense), asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization), items outside our control (primarily income taxes) and the volatility related to the timing and extent of other activities such as asset impairments and non-core income and expenses. Accordingly, we believe that this measure is useful for comparing general operating performance from period to period. In addition, we use various EBITDA-based measures in determining the achievement of awards under certain of our incentive compensation programs. Other companies may define Adjusted EBITDA differently and, as a result, our measure may not be directly comparable to measures of other companies. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA may be defined differently for purposes of covenants contained in our revolving credit facility or any future facility.

Although we use the Adjusted EBITDA measure to assess the performance of our business, the use of the measure is limited because it does not include certain material expenses, such as interest and taxes, necessary to operate our business. Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, GAAP net income as a measure of performance. Our presentation of this measure should not be construed as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. This measure has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because of these limitations, this measure is not intended as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance, as an alternative to any other measure of performance in conformity with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity. You should therefore not place undue reliance on this measure or ratios calculated using this measure.

We also believe the Adjusted Net Income measure is useful to investors and us as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period as it measures our changes in pricing decisions, cost controls and other factors that impact operating performance, and removes the effect of certain non-core items such as discontinued operations, acquisition related expenses, amortization expense, the tax impact of these certain non-core items, and the volatility related to the timing and extent of other activities such as asset impairments and non-core income and expenses. To make the financial presentation more consistent with other public building products companies, beginning in the fourth quarter 2016 we included an addback for non-cash amortization expense related to acquisitions. Accordingly, we believe that this measure is useful for comparing general operating performance from period to period. Other companies may define Adjusted Net Income differently and, as a result, our measure may not be directly comparable to measures of other companies. In addition, Adjusted Net Income may be defined differently for purposes of covenants contained in our revolving credit facility or any future facility.

The table below reconciles Adjusted Net Income to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, net income, for the periods presented therein.
