EAST HANOVER, N.J., Aug. 10, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- FGI Industries Ltd. (Nasdaq: FGI) ("FGI" or the "Company"), a leading global supplier of kitchen and bath products, today announced results for the second quarter of 2022.

SECOND QUARTER 2022 HIGHLIGHTS
(As compared to the Second Quarter of 2021)

  • Total Revenues of $47.8 million, +12.5% y/y
  • Operating Income of $1.7 million, (47.9%) y/y
  • Net Income of $1.2 million, (53.3%) y/y
  • Adjusted Operating Income of $1.8 million, (47.2%) y/y
  • Adjusted Net Income of $1.2 million, (52.6%) y/y
  • Reaffirmed full-year 2022 financial guidance

Total revenue increased by 13% on a year-over-year basis in the second quarter of 2022, driven primarily by continued strength in the Sanitaryware and Other categories (including shower systems and custom kitchen cabinetry), while partially offset by a decline in Bath Furniture.  Second quarter revenue trends remained strong in Canada, while the United States and Europe increased modestly. 

The Company reported operating income of $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2022, a decline of $1.6 million versus the prior-year period, primarily driven by supply chain disruptions, investments in organic growth initiatives, and incremental public company costs, partially offset by strong revenue growth.  Excluding non-recurring IPO-related compensation expense of $0.02 million, adjusted operating income was $1.8 million during the second quarter of 2022, as compared to $3.3 million for the prior-year period. 

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company reported GAAP net income of $1.2 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, versus net income of $2.5 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2021.  Excluding non-recurring items and the related tax impact, the Company reported second quarter 2022 adjusted net income of $1.2 million, or $0.10 per diluted share.

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

"Demand trends remained strong across our key product categories during the second quarter, with total revenue increasing by 13% on a year-over-year basis, driven by strong demand in both the wholesale and retail channels for sanitaryware and continued growth in our newer product categories," stated David Bruce, President and Chief Executive Officer of FGI.  "As we had expected coming into the year, we have seen some moderation in the broader R&R market growth owing to the ongoing macroeconomic headwinds, with our Bath Furniture segment seeing the biggest impact within our product portfolio; however, overall demand for our products has remained more resilient.  We remain encouraged by the organic growth outlook for our business as we enter the second half of the year, as our portfolio of innovative, high-quality products continues to be received favorably by consumers.  We continue to see the strong order momentum from the first half continuing into second half of 2022." 

"I am extremely pleased by our solid execution in the quarter, as we made additional progress on our margin recovery initiatives, with pricing actions and other measures to offset the supply chain challenges driving roughly 200 basis points of sequential improvement in operating margin during the second quarter," continued Bruce.  "A less favorable business mix masked some of the progress we made during the quarter, but we continue to successfully implement strategic pricing actions that will benefit second half results and as a result we expect to see additional sequential margin improvement in the back half of the year."

"The supply chain headwinds have resulted in a period of elevated working capital usage in recent quarters, but these issues are beginning to normalize, and we expect strong cash flow conversion in the back half of the year as balance sheet metrics return to historical levels," stated Perry Lin, Chief Financial Officer of FGI.  "We exited the second quarter of 2022 in a strong financial position with cash of $3.1 million and we have ample liquidity with which to support our organic growth initiatives and any potential strategic M&A."

"We were able to post another quarter of solid financial performance despite the challenging business environment, which is a direct result of the hard work and dedication of our highly motivated team members across the organization," continued Bruce.  "We continue to pursue a number of programs that have the potential to drive strong incremental organic growth over the long-term, including investments in manufacturing capacity to support potentially meaningful growth in our Covered Bridge custom kitchen cabinetry brand in the coming quarters and years.  We are excited by the strong growth potential for FGI and remain encouraged by our ability to drive improving profitability despite the ongoing supply chain challenges. Based on these factors, we remain confident in our financial outlook for the year and are reiterating our full-year 2022 financial guidance."

STRATEGIC UPDATE

Consistent with its long-term strategic plan, FGI intends to drive value creation for its shareholders through a focus on product innovation, execution of its Brands, Products and Channels ("BPC") strategy to drive organic growth, margin expansion, and efficient capital deployment.  Notable progress against these initiatives achieved during the second quarter were as follows:

  • FGI has expanded its relationship with Hajoca Corporation, the nation's largest privately held wholesale distributor of plumbing, heating, and industrial supplies in the United States. Hajoca is now offering almost the entire portfolio of FGI's products to its customers

  • FGI continues to grow its custom kitchen cabinetry business, generating strong growth in its dealer network which totaled 119 at June 30, 2022, up from 71 at the start of the year. FGI is also in active discussions with large national customers for even greater growth potential in the years ahead. As a result, the Company is investing in manufacturing capacity to support the growth trajectory of its custom kitchen cabinetry business.

  • FGI generated roughly 200 basis points of sequential operating margin improvement during the second quarter of 2022 as compared to the first quarter of 2022 owing to price increases and other efficiency measures. Based on continued strategic price actions and declining freight costs, FGI expects to generate continued margin improvement in the back half of 2022.

  • FGI continues to focus its capital deployment efforts on organic growth strategies in the near-term (as illustrated by its investment in manufacturing capacity for its custom kitchen cabinetry business) and continues to focus on attractive organic growth initiatives that could contribute significant growth in the coming years. In addition, the Company is actively screening potential M&A opportunities to supplement its organic growth strategy.

SECOND QUARTER 2022 RESULTS

Revenue totaled $47.8 million during the second quarter of 2022, an increase of 12.5% compared to the prior-year period, driven by strong volume growth and continued pricing gains, partially offset by negative product mix.  Revenue benefitted from volume and pricing growth in Sanitaryware, as well as contribution from new products such as shower wall systems and kitchen cabinetry.  However, supply chain challenges continue to result in order delays that negatively impacted Bath Furniture revenues, causing revenue to decline in the quarter. 

  • Sanitaryware revenue was $32.2 million during the second quarter of 2022, an increase of 55.5% compared to the prior-year period, primarily driven by continued volume strength in the pro channel as well as solid demand in the retail channel. Order momentum for the Sanitaryware business remains on track with no indications of a slowdown visible at this point.

  • Bath Furniture revenue was $7.7 million during the second quarter of 2022, a decrease of 52% compared to the prior-year period. The Company continued to experience order delays due to supply chain issues and elevated levels of channel inventory. This is largely a timing issue, as end consumer demand has moderated slightly but remains solid. The Company expects these issues to begin normalizing in the second half of 2022 as orders are expected to be placed and shipped in the coming quarters.

  • Other revenue was $7.9 million during the second quarter of 2022, an increase of 35.5% compared to the prior-year period, primarily driven by volume growth resulting from continued strength in sales of the Jetcoat Shower wall systems, shower doors, and Covered Bridge custom-kitchen cabinetry.

Gross profit was $8.4 million during the second quarter of 2022, a decrease of 8.4% compared to the prior-year period, as strong revenue growth was offset by ongoing supply chain disruptions.  As a result of these factors, gross profit margin was 17.6% during the second quarter of 2022, down from 21.6% in the prior-year period.  The reduction in the Company's gross margin percentage is primarily attributable to the impact of higher ocean freight charges associated with recent global supply chain issues and a less favorable product mix given the revenue decline in Bath Furniture. The Company will benefit from additional price increases that have recently been implemented, declines in ocean freight costs, and an expected rebound in the Bath Furniture segment, which should drive continued sequential gross margin improvement in the second half of 2022.        

Operating income was $1.7 million during the second quarter of 2022, down from $3.3 million in the prior-year period.  The decrease in operating income was primarily driven by gross margin pressure, investments in organic growth initiatives, and public company costs, partially offset by solid revenue growth.  As a result, operating margin was 3.6% during the second quarter, down from 7.8% in the same period last year.  Excluding non-recurring IPO-related compensation expense of $0.02 million, adjusted income from operations was $1.8 million during the second quarter of 2022, compared to adjusted income from operations of $3.3 million in the prior-year period.    

FINANCIAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $3.1 million of cash and cash equivalents, total debt of $14.7 million and $3.3 million of availability under its credit facility, net of letters of credit. Combined with cash and cash equivalents, total liquidity was $6.4 million at June 30, 2022.

FINANCIAL GUIDANCE

The outlook for FGI's business and the long-term trends in the repair and remodel markets remains strong. The Company reiterates its fiscal 2022 guidance as follows:

  • Total Revenue of between $182 million and $189 million
  • Total Operating Income of between $6.5 million and $7.5 million
  • Total Net Income of $5.0 million to $6.0 million

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In addition to the measures presented in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we use the following non-GAAP measures to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business and assist us in making strategic decisions. Our non-GAAP measures are: Adjusted Income from Operations, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP. They are supplemental financial measures of our performance only, and should not be considered substitutes for net income, income from operations or any other measure derived in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other entities.

We define Adjusted Income from Operations as GAAP income from operations excluding the impact of certain non-recurring expenses, including IPO-related compensation and stock-based compensation expense and expenses related to COVID-19 protocols. We define Adjusted Net Income as GAAP net income excluding the tax-effected impact of certain non-recurring expenses and income, such as IPO-related compensation and stock-based compensation expense, expenses related to COVID-19 protocols and the impact of our PPP loan. We define Adjusted Net Income Per Share as GAAP net income per share excluding one-time expenses and income, including IPO-related compensation and stock-based compensation expense, expenses related to COVID-19 protocols and the impact of our PPP loan.

We use these non-GAAP measures, along with U.S. GAAP measures, to evaluate our business, measure our financial performance and profitability and our ability to manage expenses, after adjusting for certain one-time expenses, identify trends affecting our business and assist us in making strategic decisions. We believe these non-GAAP measures, when reviewed in conjunction with U.S. GAAP financial measures, and not in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results of operations under U.S. GAAP, are useful to investors as they are widely used measures of performance, and the adjustments we make to these non-GAAP measures provide investors further insight into our profitability and additional perspectives in comparing our performance over time on a consistent basis.

The following table reconciles Income from Operations to Adjusted Income from Operations, as well as net income to Adjusted Net Income and net income per share to Adjusted Net Income Per Share for the periods presented.
