2023 Guidance Shows Continued Profitable
Growth
Hostess Brands, Inc. (NASDAQ: TWNK) (“Hostess Brands” or the
“Company”) today reported its financial results for the fourth
quarter and year ended December 31, 2022.
“Hostess Brands delivered another year of strong top and
bottom-line results in 2022, highlighting our attractive snacking
portfolio and the resiliency of our advantaged business model. I am
very proud of the focus, agility, and commitment of the Hostess
Brands team as they continue to execute with excellence against our
key strategic growth initiatives in a dynamic environment,”
commented Andy Callahan, the Company’s President and Chief
Executive Officer.
He added, “Our track record of top-tier net revenue and earnings
growth over the last three years, operational excellence and
continued investments in our marketing and innovation capabilities
give us the confidence to maintain our profitable growth momentum
and deliver growth ahead of our long-term targets in 2023, as
outlined by our initial guidance.”
Fourth Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights as Compared to the
Prior Year Period1:
- Net revenue of $339.5 million increased 14.2% from the same
period last year, as 20.5% contribution from price/mix more than
offset lower volumes in the quarter.
- Gross profit increased 10.4% to $121.9 million, or 35.9% of net
revenue, while on an adjusted basis, gross profit increased 11.3%
to $123.1 million, or 36.3% of net revenue. Fourth quarter gross
margin declined by 124 basis points, 95 basis points on an adjusted
basis, from year-ago quarter largely due to 20.2% inflation.
- Net income was $32.9 million, or $0.24 per diluted share
compared to $36.5 million, or $0.25 in the same period last year.
Adjusted net income remained relatively flat at $33.9 million,
resulting in $0.25 adjusted EPS in both periods.
- Adjusted EBITDA increased 2.6% to $75.1 million as higher gross
profit was partially offset by the planned increase in operating
costs, particularly advertising and marketing. Adjusted EBITDA
margin of 22.1% declined 249 basis points from 24.6% in the prior
year period.
Full Year 2022 Financial Highlights as Compared to the Prior
Year Period1:
- Net revenue of $1,358.2 million increased 18.9% from last year
driven by positive volume growth of 2.6% and 16.3% contribution
from price/mix.
- Gross profit increased 13.6% from the year-ago period to $465.7
million, or 34.3% of net revenue, while on an adjusted basis, gross
profit increased 13.9% to $467.7 million, or 34.4% of net revenue.
Annual gross margin declined by 161 basis points, 152 basis points
on an adjusted basis.
- Net income of $164.2 million, or $1.19 per diluted share
increased from $119.3 million, or $0.86 per diluted share in the
same period last year. Adjusted net income and adjusted EPS, which
exclude the receipt of Voortman insurance proceeds, increased by
double-digits to $134.6 million, and $0.98, respectively.
- Adjusted EBITDA increased 9.4% to $294.1 million. Adjusted
EBITDA margin of 21.7% declined from 23.5% in the prior year period
due to lower gross margins and higher operating expenses.
- Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments were
$116.5 million as of December 31, 2022. Net leverage ratio improved
from 3.1x to 2.9x.
- Capital expenditures increased to $130.5 million from $65.4
million in the prior-year period as a result of the ongoing
investments, including the addition of a new bakery in Arkadelphia,
to support growth.
___________________________________________
1 This press release contains certain
non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted gross profit,
adjusted gross margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin,
adjusted operating income, adjusted net income margin and adjusted
earnings per share (“EPS”). Please refer to the schedules in the
press release for reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to
the comparable GAAP measure. Unless otherwise stated, all
comparisons of financial measures in this press release are to the
fourth quarter or full year of 2021. All measures of market
performance contained in this press release, including point of
sale and market share, include all Company branded products within
the SBG or Cookie categories as reported by Nielsen but do not
include other products sold outside of those categories. All market
data in this press release refer to the 13-week or 52-week period
ended December 31, 2022 and the prior-year comparable period. The
Company's leverage ratio is net debt (total long-term debt less
cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments) divided by
adjusted EBITDA.
Other Highlights:
- Hostess Brands’ Sweet Baked Goods point-of-sale (“POS”)
increased by 9.2% and 16.4% for the quarter and year respectively.
Its share of the Sweet Baked Goods category decreased by 150 basis
points to 20.1% during the quarter and remained relatively stable
at 21.2% for the year.
- Voortman® branded POS grew 28.2% for the quarter, nearly 1.5x
faster than the overall Cookie category, and 27.7% for the year,
driven in part by the ongoing momentum in the faster-growing
sugar-free sub-segment.
- Repurchased $130.1 million of shares in 2022.
- Prepaid $100.0 million on its term loan.
2023 Financial Guidance2
The Company’s guidance for the full year 2023 is as follows:
- Adjusted net revenue growth of 4% to 6%
- Adjusted EBITDA of $315 million to $325 million, an increase of
7% to 10% from 2022
- Adjusted EPS of $1.08 to $1.13, an increase of 10% to 15% from
2022
- Weighted average diluted shares outstanding of approximately
~135 million
- Capital expenditures of approximately $150 million to $170
million
- Income tax rate of approximately ~27%
Fourth Quarter 2022 Compared to Fourth Quarter 2021
Net revenue was $339.5 million, an increase of $42.3 million, or
14.2%, compared to the same period last year. Contribution from
previously taken pricing actions and favorable mix provided 20.5%
of the growth, offset by a 6.3% decline in volume. Sweet baked
goods net revenue increased $36.8 million, or 13.8%, while cookies
net revenue increased $5.5 million, or 18.0%.
Gross profit increased 10.4% and was 35.9% of net revenue for
the quarter ended December 31, 2022, a decrease of 124 basis points
from a gross margin of 37.1% for the same period last year. The
decrease in gross margin was primarily due to inflation, partially
offset by favorable price/mix, including revenue growth management
initiatives.
Operating income was $56.6 million. Adjusted operating income of
$57.8 million increased 1.6% from the same period last year as
higher gross profit was partially offset by higher advertising and
marketing expense as well as higher investments in our
workforce.
Adjusted EBITDA of $75.1 million, or 22.1% of net revenue,
increased 2.6% from the same period last year. The improvement in
adjusted EBITDA was driven by higher gross profit, partially offset
by the planned increase in operating costs, particularly
advertising and marketing expense, as well as higher investments in
our workforce.
The Company’s effective tax rate was 27.3% compared to 19.6% in
the prior year. Effective tax rates were impacted by non-taxable
changes in the fair value of the warrant liabilities in the prior
year as well as a tax benefit related to revaluing our deferred tax
liabilities due to a change in the estimated state tax rate. The
effective tax rates, excluding discrete items, were 27.3% and 27.7%
in the current year and prior year period, respectively.
Net income was $32.9 million. Adjusted net income of $33.9
million remained relatively consistent as compared to the same
period last year. Diluted EPS was $0.24 compared to $0.25 in the
prior period. Adjusted EPS was $0.25 in both periods.
Cash flow from operations for the twelve months ended December
31, 2022 was $248.8 million compared to $203.0 million for the same
period last year. Operating cash flow benefited from current year
improvement in profitability, including the insurance proceeds of
$33.0 million, partially offset by an increase in tax payments and
an increase in working capital.
__________________________________________
2 The Company provides guidance only on a
non-generally accepted accounting principles (non-GAAP) basis and
does not provide a reconciliation of the Company's forward-looking
financial expectations to the most directly comparable GAAP
financial measure because of the inherent difficulty in forecasting
and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such
reconciliation; including adjustments that could be made for
deferred taxes; remeasurement of the tax receivable agreement,
transformation expenses and other non-operating gains or losses
reflected in the Company's reconciliation of historic non-GAAP
financial measures, the amount of which could be material. Please
refer to the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures included
in this press release for further information about the use of
these measures.

HOSTESS BRANDS, INC. RECONCILIATION
OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted operating
income, adjusted net income, adjusted net income margin, adjusted
EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted diluted shares and
adjusted EPS collectively referred to as “Non-GAAP Financial
Measures,” are commonly used in the Company’s industry and should
not be construed as an alternative to net revenue, gross profit,
operating income, net income, net income margin, diluted shares
outstanding or earnings per share as indicators of operating
performance (as determined in accordance with GAAP). These Non-GAAP
Financial Measures may not be comparable to similarly titled
measures reported by other companies. The Company has included
these Non-GAAP Financial Measures because it believes the measures
provide management and investors with additional information to
measure the Company’s performance, estimate the Company’s value and
evaluate the Company’s ability to service debt.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures are adjusted to exclude certain
items that affect comparability. The adjustments are itemized in
the tables below. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments
and the reason the Company considers them appropriate for
supplemental analysis. In evaluating adjustments, you should be
aware that in the future, the Company may incur expenses that are
the same as or similar to some of the adjustments set forth below.
The presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures should not be
construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected by
unusual or recurring items.
The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as net income adjusted to
exclude (i) interest expense, net, (ii) depreciation and
amortization (iii) income taxes and (iv) share-based compensation,
as further adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that
the Company does not consider indicative of its ongoing operating
performance. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool,
and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for
analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. For
example, adjusted EBITDA:
- does not reflect the Company’s capital expenditures, future
requirements for capital expenditures or contractual
commitments;
- does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the
Company’s working capital needs;
- does not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash
requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments,
on the Company’s debt; and
- does not reflect payments related to income taxes or the tax
receivable agreement.
