Compass Diversified Reports Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results

WESTPORT, Conn., July 31, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Compass Diversified (NYSE: CODI) (“CODI” or the “Company”), an owner of leading middle market businesses, announced today its consolidated operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

“I’m pleased to announce another strong quarter with results that exceeded our expectations, driven by continued strength in our consumer businesses,” said Elias Sabo, CEO of Compass Diversified. “While Q2 saw deteriorating economic conditions that negatively impacted our industrial vertical, our branded consumer businesses performed exceptionally well with net sales up close to 20%, or 11% on a pro forma basis, offsetting any weaknesses in our industrial businesses. As expected, destocking headwinds subsided this past quarter, which meant both BOA and PrimaLoft performed exceptionally well and Lugano continued to grow at an extraordinary pace.”

Second Quarter 2024 Financial Summary vs. Same Year-Ago Period (where applicable)

  • Net sales up 11% to $542.6 million and up 6% on a pro forma basis.
  • Branded Consumer net sales up 11% on a pro forma basis to $373.5 million.
  • Industrial net sales down 4% to $169.1 million.
  • Loss from continuing operations of $13.7 million vs. income from continuing operations of $10.1 million.
  • Net loss of $(13.7) million vs. net income of $17.1 million, primarily due to the loss of $24.6 million from the divestiture of Crosman Corporation, a division of Velocity Outdoor.
  • Adjusted Earnings, a non-GAAP financial measure, was up 36% to $39.8 million vs. $29.2 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, was up 27% to $105.4 million.
  • Paid a second quarter 2024 cash distribution of $0.25 per share on CODI’s common shares in July 2024.

Recent Business Highlights

  • On April 30, 2024, CODI announced the divestiture of Crosman Corporation, the air gun division of its Velocity Outdoor subsidiary.
  • On April 18, 2024, The Honey Pot Co., a subsidiary of CODI and a leading, better-for-you feminine care brand, announced the appointment of three new female members to its board of directors.

Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Net sales in the second quarter of 2024 were $542.6 million, up 11% compared to $486.9 million in the second quarter of 2023. This was driven by CODI’s acquisition of The Honey Pot Co. in January 2024 and continued strong sales growth at Lugano and BOA. On a pro forma basis, assuming CODI had acquired The Honey Pot Co. on January 1, 2023, net sales were up 6%.

On a pro forma basis, Branded Consumer net sales increased 11% to $373.5 million compared to the second quarter of 2023.

Industrial net sales decreased 4% to $169.1 million compared to the second quarter of 2023.

Operating income for the second quarter of 2024 was $61.3 million compared to $42.1 million in the second quarter of 2023. Operating income in the second quarter of 2024 reflected higher gross profit at CODI’s Branded Consumer brands, offset by increased SG&A and amortization expense from CODI’s acquisition of The Honey Pot Co. in the first quarter of 2024.

Loss from continuing operations in the second quarter of 2024 was $(13.7) million compared to income from continuing operations of $10.1 million in the second quarter of 2023, primarily reflecting the loss on the divestiture of Crosman Corporation.

Net loss in the second quarter of 2024 was $(13.7) million compared to net income of $17.1 million in the second quarter of 2023, primarily reflecting the loss on the divestiture of Crosman Corporation.

Adjusted Earnings (see “Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below) for the second quarter of 2024 increased 36% to $39.8 million compared to $29.2 million a year ago. CODI’s weighted average number of shares outstanding in the second quarter of 2024 was 75.39 million compared to 71.93 million in the prior year second quarter.

Adjusted EBITDA (see “Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below) in the second quarter of 2024 was $105.4 million, up 27% compared to $82.9 million in the second quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily due to strong results at BOA and Lugano, and the addition of The Honey Pot Co. in the first quarter of 2024. The Company no longer adds back management fees in its calculation of Adjusted EBITDA. Management fees incurred during the second quarter were $18.9 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2024, CODI had approximately $68.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, $54.0 million outstanding on its revolver, $380.0 million outstanding in term loans, $1.0 billion outstanding in 5.250% Senior Notes due 2029 and $300.0 million outstanding in 5.000% Senior Notes due 2032.

2024 Outlook

As a result of CODI’s financial performance in the second quarter, it’s expectations for the remainder of 2024 and its current view of the economy, the Company is maintaining its 2024 outlook.

CODI continues to expect its current subsidiaries, inclusive of The Honey Pot Co. as if it owned it from January 1, 2024, to produce Subsidiary Adjusted EBITDA (see “Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below) for the full year 2024 of between $480 million and $520 million.

Of this range, CODI now expects its Branded Consumer vertical to produce $365 million to $395 million, an upward revision of $10 million, and its Industrial vertical to produce $115 million to $125 million, a downward revision of $10 million. These estimates are based on the summation of the Company’s expectations for its current subsidiaries in 2024, and is absent additional acquisitions or divestitures, and excludes corporate expenses such as interest expense, management fees paid by CODI and corporate overhead.

CODI continues to expect to earn Adjusted EBITDA (see “Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below), which includes management fees and corporate expenses, of $390 million to $430 million for the full year 2024. Adjusted EBITDA only includes results from The Honey Pot Co. from the date of acquisition.

In addition, the Company is maintaining its Adjusted Earnings guidance and expects to earn between $148 million and $163 million (see “Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below) for the full year 2024.

In reliance on the unreasonable efforts exception provided under Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K, CODI has not reconciled 2024 Subsidiary Adjusted EBITDA, 2024 Adjusted EBITDA or 2024 Adjusted Earnings to their comparable GAAP measure because it does not provide guidance on Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations or Net Income (Loss) or the applicable reconciling items as a result of the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, these items. For the same reasons, CODI is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.

Conference Call

In conjunction with this announcement, CODI will host a conference call on July 31, 2024, at 5:00 p.m. E.T. / 2:00 p.m. PT with the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Elias Sabo, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Ryan Faulkingham, and Pat Maciariello the Chief Operating Officer of Compass Group Management. A live webcast of the call will be available on the Investor Relations section of CODI’s website.

To avoid delays, we encourage participants to dial into the conference call 15 minutes ahead of the scheduled start time. A replay of the webcast will also be available for a limited time on the Company’s website.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings are non-GAAP measures used by the Company to assess its performance. We have reconciled Adjusted EBITDA to Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations and Adjusted Earnings to Net Income (Loss) on the attached schedules. We consider Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations to be the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to Adjusted EBITDA and Net Income (Loss) to be the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to Adjusted Earnings. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings provides useful information to investors and reflect important financial measures as each excludes the effects of items which reflect the impact of long-term investment decisions, rather than the performance of near-term operations. When compared to Net Income (Loss) and Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations, Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA, respectively, are each limited in that they do not reflect the periodic costs of certain capital assets used in generating revenues of our businesses or the non-cash charges associated with impairments, as well as certain cash charges. The presentation of Adjusted EBITDA allows investors to view the performance of our businesses in a manner similar to the methods used by us and the management of our businesses, provides additional insight into our operating results and provides a measure for evaluating targeted businesses for acquisition. The presentation of Adjusted Earnings provides insight into our operating results.

Pro forma net sales is defined as net sales including the historical net sales relating to the pre-acquisition periods of The Honey Pot Co., assuming that the Company acquired The Honey Pot Co. on January 1, 2023. We have reconciled pro forma net sales to net sales, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, on the attached schedules. We believe that pro forma net sales is useful information for investors as it provides a better understanding of sales performance, and relative changes thereto, on a comparable basis. Pro forma net sales is not necessarily indicative of what the actual results would have been if the acquisition had in fact occurred on the date or for the periods indicated nor does it purport to project net sales for any future periods or as of any date.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Earnings and pro forma net sales are not meant to be a substitute for GAAP measures and may be different from or otherwise inconsistent with non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
