BellRing Brands Reports Results for the First Quarter of Fiscal Year 2023; Raises Certain Fiscal Year 2023 Outlook

ST. LOUIS, Feb. 06, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BellRing Brands, Inc. (NYSE:BRBR) (“BellRing”), a holding company operating in the global convenient nutrition category, today reported results for the first fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2022.

Highlights:

  • First quarter net sales of $362.7 million
  • Operating profit of $75.2 million; net earnings available to common stockholders of $44.2 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $84.9 million
  • Affirmed fiscal year 2023 net sales guidance of between $1.56-$1.64 billion; raises Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP)* guidance to $306-$325 million
  • Post Holdings completes its exit of BellRing ownership

*BellRing provides Adjusted EBITDA guidance only on a non-GAAP basis and does not provide a reconciliation of its forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA non-GAAP guidance measure to the most directly comparable GAAP measure due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, including the adjustments described under “Outlook” below.

“We are pleased with our strong first quarter performance, which came in ahead of our expectations. Our shake production came in slightly higher than we forecasted, improving both internal and customer trade inventory levels and driving Premier Protein volumes back to growth. Premier Protein and Dymatize saw healthy retail consumption growth in the quarter, which has continued into January,” said Darcy H. Davenport, President and Chief Executive Officer of BellRing. “The convenient nutrition category continues to show momentum. Our new capacity expansions remain on track. Our brands are resonating with consumers and our first quarter results give us greater confidence in our full year outlook and long-term prospects.”

Dollar consumption of Premier Protein ready-to-drink (“RTD”) shakes and Dymatize United States (“U.S.”) powder products increased 15.1% and 29.9%, respectively, in the 13-week period ended January 1, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022 (inclusive of IRI Multi Outlet including Convenience and management estimates of untracked channels).

First Quarter Operating Results

Net sales were $362.7 million, an increase of 18.3%, or $56.2 million, compared to the prior year period, driven by 15.4% improvement in price/mix and 2.9% increase in volume.

Premier Protein net sales increased 22.9%, driven by 18.0% improvement in price and 4.9% increase in volume. Premier Protein RTD shake net sales increased 21.8%, driven by 16.7% improvement in price and 5.1% increase in volume. Net sales benefited from higher average net selling prices driven by price increases to offset significant cost inflation. Higher RTD shake production, along with RTD category growth, drove underlying net sales growth. Partially offsetting this volume growth was the lapping of temporarily discontinued flavors.

Dymatize net sales increased 2.5%, driven by 21.5% improvement in price/mix, which was partially offset by 19.0% decrease in volume. Price/mix benefited from higher average net selling prices (driven by price increases to offset significant cost inflation) and favorable product mix, which was partially offset by increased promotional spending. Volume contraction was driven by lapping discontinued products and shifts in quarterly shipment timing within the international and specialty channels. These declines were partially offset by volume growth driven by new product distribution gains and promotional activities.

Gross profit was $121.8 million, or 33.6% of net sales, an increase of 32.0%, or $29.5 million, compared to $92.3 million, or 30.1% of net sales, in the prior year period. The higher gross profit margin was driven by improved pricing that offset significant cost inflation, $3.8 million of production attainment fees received in the current year period from shake contract manufacturers and lapping logistics inefficiencies in the prior year period (resulting from capacity constraints).

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $41.7 million, or 11.5% of net sales, an increase of $4.9 million compared to $36.8 million, or 12.0% of net sales, in the prior year period. SG&A expenses included $0.3 million and $2.0 million in the first quarter of 2023 and 2022, respectively, of costs incurred in connection with BellRing’s separation from Post Holdings, Inc. (“Post”), which were treated as adjustments for non-GAAP measures.

Operating profit was $75.2 million, an increase of 48.6%, or $24.6 million, compared to $50.6 million in the prior year period.

Net earnings available to common stockholders were $44.2 million, an increase of 439.0%, or $36.0 million, compared to $8.2 million in the prior year period. Net earnings available to common stockholders in the prior year period excluded $31.1 million of net earnings attributable to the Company’s redeemable noncontrolling interest (“NCI”). Net earnings per diluted share of common stock were $0.33, compared to $0.21 in the prior year period. Adjusted net earnings available to common stockholders were $44.9 million, or $0.33 per diluted share of common stock, compared to $10.1 million, or $0.26 per diluted share of common stock, in the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA was $84.9 million, an increase of 42.0%, or $25.1 million, compared to $59.8 million in the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA in the prior year period included an adjustment for the portion of BellRing Brands, LLC’s (“BellRing LLC”) consolidated net earnings which was allocated to NCI in the period prior to Post’s distribution to its shareholders of 80.1% of Post’s interest in BellRing (the “Distribution” and, together with the transactions related thereto, the “Spin-off”), resulting in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA including 100% of BellRing.

Interest and Income Tax

Interest expense, net was $16.7 million in the first quarter of 2023, compared to $8.4 million in the first quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily driven by increases in the aggregate principal amount of debt outstanding and the weighted-average interest rate, both of which resulted from the Spin-off transactions.

Income tax expense was $14.3 million in the first quarter of 2023, an effective income tax rate of 24.4%, compared to $2.9 million in the first quarter of 2022, an effective income tax rate of 6.9%. In the three months ended December 31, 2022, the increase in the effective income tax rate when compared to the prior year period was driven primarily by inclusion of 100% of the items of income, gain, loss and deduction of BellRing LLC in the period subsequent to the Spin-off. In the three months ended December 31, 2021, the effective income tax rate differed significantly from the statutory rate as a result of taking into account for U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes its distributive share of the items of income, gain, loss and deduction of BellRing LLC in the period prior to the Spin-off.

Share Repurchases

During the first quarter of 2023, BellRing repurchased 1.8 million shares for $41.2 million at an average price of $23.33 per share, 0.9 million of which were repurchased in November in connection with a secondary offering of shares previously held by Post. As of December 31, 2022, BellRing had $28.9 million remaining under its share repurchase authorization.

Post Completes Exit of BellRing Ownership

On November 25, 2022, Post transferred all of its remaining shares of BellRing common stock to certain financial institutions in satisfaction of certain indebtedness of Post. As a result, Post no longer owns any shares of BellRing’s common stock.

Basis of Presentation

On March 10, 2022, Post’s distribution to its shareholders of 80.1% of its interest in BellRing was completed. From October 21, 2019 through March 10, 2022, BellRing allocated a portion of the consolidated net earnings of BellRing LLC to its redeemable NCI, reflecting the entitlement of Post to a portion of the consolidated net earnings. Subsequent to the Spin-off, any remaining ownership of BellRing by Post no longer represented an NCI to BellRing LLC.

Outlook

For fiscal year 2023, BellRing management continues to expect net sales to range between $1.56-$1.64 billion and has raised its Adjusted EBITDA outlook to range between $306-$325 million (resulting in net sales and Adjusted EBITDA growth of 14%-20% and 13%-20%, respectively, over fiscal year 2022). BellRing management expects fiscal year 2023 capital expenditures of approximately $4 million.

BellRing provides Adjusted EBITDA guidance only on a non-GAAP basis and does not provide a reconciliation of its forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA non-GAAP guidance measure to the most directly comparable GAAP measure due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, including adjustments that could be made for separation costs and other charges reflected in BellRing’s reconciliation of historical numbers, the amounts of which, based on historical experience, could be significant. For additional information regarding BellRing’s non-GAAP measures, see the related explanations presented under “Use of Non-GAAP Measures.”

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

BellRing uses certain non-GAAP measures in this release to supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP measures include Adjusted net earnings available to common stockholders, Adjusted diluted earnings per share of common stock and Adjusted EBITDA. The reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is provided later in this release under “Explanation and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures.”

Management uses certain of these non-GAAP measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, as key metrics in the evaluation of underlying company performance, in making financial, operating and planning decisions and, in part, in the determination of bonuses for its executive officers and employees. Additionally, BellRing is required to comply with certain covenants and limitations that are based on variations of EBITDA in its financing documents. Management believes the use of these non-GAAP measures provides increased transparency and assists investors in understanding the underlying operating performance of BellRing and in the analysis of ongoing operating trends. Non-GAAP measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, as they exclude certain items as described later in this release. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. For additional information regarding BellRing’s non-GAAP measures, see the related explanations provided under “Explanation and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures” later in this release.

EXPLANATION AND RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES

BellRing uses certain non-GAAP measures in this release to supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP measures include Adjusted net earnings available to common stockholders, Adjusted diluted earnings per share of common stock and Adjusted EBITDA. The reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is provided in the tables following this section. Non-GAAP measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, as they exclude certain items as described below. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted net earnings available to common stockholders and Adjusted diluted earnings per share of common stock
BellRing believes Adjusted net earnings available to common stockholders and Adjusted diluted earnings per share of common stock are useful to investors in evaluating BellRing’s operating performance because they exclude items that affect the comparability of BellRing’s financial results and could potentially distort an understanding of the trends in business performance.

Adjusted net earnings available to common stockholders and Adjusted diluted earnings per share of common stock are adjusted for the following items:

a.Separation costs: BellRing has excluded certain expenses incurred in connection with (i) Post’s distribution of 80.1% of its interest in BellRing and (ii) secondary offerings of shares of BellRing common stock previously held by Post, as the amount and frequency of such expenses are not consistent. Additionally, BellRing believes that these costs do not reflect expected ongoing future operating expenses and do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of BellRing’s current operating performance or comparisons of BellRing’s operating performance to other periods.
b.Foreign currency gain/loss on intercompany loans: BellRing has excluded the impact of foreign currency fluctuations related to intercompany loans denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the respective legal entity in evaluating BellRing’s performance to allow for more meaningful comparisons of performance to other periods.
c.Mark-to-market adjustments on commodity hedges: BellRing has excluded the impact of mark-to-market adjustments on commodity hedges due to the inherent uncertainty and volatility associated with such amounts based on changes in assumptions with respect to fair value estimates. Additionally, these adjustments are primarily non-cash items and the amount and frequency of such adjustments are not consistent.
d.NCI adjustment: BellRing has included an adjustment to reflect the removal of non-GAAP adjustments which are attributable to redeemable NCI in the period prior to the Spin-off in the calculation of Adjusted net earnings available to common stockholders and Adjusted diluted earnings per share of common stock, as BellRing believes this adjustment contributes to a more meaningful evaluation of BellRing’s current operating performance.
e.Income tax effect on adjustments: BellRing has included the income tax impact of the non-GAAP adjustments using a rate described in the applicable footnote of the reconciliation tables, as BellRing believes that its GAAP effective income tax rate as reported is not representative of the income tax expense impact of the adjustments.

Adjusted EBITDA
BellRing believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating BellRing’s operating performance and liquidity because (i) BellRing believes it is widely used to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items such as depreciation and amortization, which can vary depending upon accounting methods and the book value of assets, (ii) it presents a measure of corporate performance exclusive of BellRing’s capital structure and the method by which the assets were acquired and (iii) it is a financial indicator of a company’s ability to service its debt, as BellRing is required to comply with certain covenants and limitations that are based on variations of EBITDA in its financing documents. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to provide forward-looking guidance and to forecast future results.

Adjusted EBITDA reflects adjustments for income tax expense, interest expense, net and depreciation and amortization, and the following adjustments discussed above: separation costs, foreign currency gain/loss on intercompany loans and mark-to-market adjustments on commodity hedges. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA reflects adjustments for the following items:

f.Stock-based compensation: BellRing’s compensation strategy includes the use of BellRing stock-based compensation to attract and retain executives and employees by aligning their long-term compensation interests with BellRing’s stockholders’ investment interests. BellRing’s director compensation strategy includes an election by any director who earns retainers in which the director may elect to defer compensation granted as a director to BellRing common stock, earning a match on the deferral, both of which are stock-settled upon the director’s retirement from the BellRing board of directors. BellRing has excluded stock-based compensation as stock-based compensation can vary significantly based on reasons such as the timing, size and nature of the awards granted and subjective assumptions which are unrelated to operational decisions and performance in any particular period and does not contribute to meaningful comparisons of BellRing’s operating performance to other periods.
g.Net earnings attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interest: BellRing has included adjustments for the portion of its consolidated net earnings which were allocated to redeemable NCI for the period prior to the Spin-off, allowing for the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA to include 100% of BellRing as BellRing’s management evaluates BellRing’s operating performance on a basis that includes 100% of BellRing.
