Press Release Details

SHOEMAKERSVILLE, Pa., Nov. 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hydrofarm Holdings Group, Inc. (“Hydrofarm” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: HYFM), a leading independent manufacturer and distributor of branded hydroponics equipment and supplies for controlled environment agriculture, today announced financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Third Quarter 2023 Highlights vs. Prior Year Period:

• Net sales decreased to $54.2 million compared to $74.2 million.
• Gross Profit decreased to $3.3 million compared to $5.9 million. Gross Profit Margin decreased to 6.1% of net sales compared to 7.9%.
• Adjusted Gross Profit⁽¹⁾ increased to $12.5 million compared to $7.8 million. Adjusted Gross Profit Margin⁽¹⁾ increased to 23.0% of net sales compared to 10.5%.
• Net loss was $19.9 million compared to net loss of $23.5 million.
• Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ increased to $0.5 million compared to $(9.0) million.
• Inventory charges and accounts receivable reserves impacted results in the quarter⁽²⁾.
• Cash from operating activities of $7.7 million and Free Cash Flow⁽¹⁾ of $6.9 million.
• Initiated a second phase of restructuring plan, which includes U.S. manufacturing facility consolidations, to improve efficiency and generate further cost savings.

^{(1) Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted SG&A, Adjusted SG&A as a percent of net sales, Adjusted EBITDA, and Free Cash Flow are non-GAAP measures. For reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP measures see the “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures” accompanying the release.}

^{(2) In Q3 2023, $1.2 million of inventory charges negatively impacted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit, Net Loss, and Adjusted EBITDA; while SG&A, Adjusted SG&A, Net Loss, and Adjusted EBITDA were positively impacted by $0.7 million of benefits from recoveries of accounts receivable reserves and write-downs. In Q3 2022, $4.4 million of inventory reserves and related charges negatively impacted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit, Net Loss, and Adjusted EBITDA; and accounts receivable reserves of $1.1 million negatively impacted SG&A, Adjusted SG&A, Net Loss, and Adjusted EBITDA.}

Bill Toler, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Hydrofarm, said, “We delivered positive adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter in a row, and we saw improvement in Adjusted Gross Profit Margin compared to 2022 as we successfully executed our cost reduction measures and focused on higher margin products. We grew our cash balance by nearly $6 million during the quarter as we remain focused on managing working capital. Given the ongoing industry softness, we are introducing the second phase of our restructuring strategy to enhance operational efficiency, reduce our manufacturing footprint in the U.S., and realize additional future cost savings. We are encouraged by the progress we have achieved so far this year and by recent US regulatory developments, and we are confident in the long-term fundamentals of our business going into 2024 and beyond.”

Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Net sales in the third quarter of 2023 decreased to $54.2 million compared to $74.2 million in the third quarter of 2022, due to a 22% decline in volume of products sold and a 5% decrease in price/mix of products sold. The decrease in volume was primarily related to an oversupply in the cannabis industry. The reduction in price/mix was mainly due to lower pricing in certain categories including lighting and grow media products, as well as a higher mix of lower-priced consumables relative to higher-priced durable products.

The Company initiated a second phase of its restructuring plan in the third quarter of 2023 primarily to right-size its durable equipment manufacturing facilities to better match the current levels of demand, while maintaining its high standard of customer service. For the third quarter 2023, the Company incurred estimated charges of $7.8 million for the second phase of its restructuring plan, consisting primarily of non-cash raw material inventory write-downs related to planned reductions in storage facility space. Hydrofarm expects this second phase of restructuring to result in cost savings of approximately $1.5 million annually.

Gross profit decreased to $3.3 million, or 6.1% of net sales, during the third quarter of 2023, compared to $5.9 million, or 7.9% of net sales, in the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to $7.4 million of restructuring charges and $1.2 million of non-restructuring inventory charges incurred in the third quarter of 2023. Collectively, these charges more than offset favorable gross profit from a higher proportion of proprietary brand products sold, lower freight costs and improved productivity in the current year, while also lapping $4.4 million of inventory reserves and related charges recorded in the prior year period. Adjusted Gross Profit⁽¹⁾ increased to $12.5 million, or 23.0% of net sales, compared to $7.8 million, or 10.5% of net sales, in the prior year period. Adjusted Gross Profit⁽¹⁾ and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin⁽¹⁾ increased primarily due to a significant decrease in inventory reserves and related charges, a higher proportion of proprietary brand products sold, improved productivity, and lower freight costs. This margin improvement was aided by the first phase of the restructuring plan and the related cost saving initiatives.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense was $19.5 million, compared to $26.2 million in the prior year period and Adjusted SG&A⁽¹⁾ was $12.0 million, compared to $16.8 million in the prior year period. The decrease in SG&A and Adjusted SG&A⁽¹⁾ was primarily due to a reduction in headcount, accounts receivable reserves, and professional fees, which was aided by the Company's restructuring plan and related cost saving initiatives.

Net loss was $19.9 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $23.5 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, in the prior year period. The improvement was primarily due to lower SG&A expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ was $0.5 million, compared to $(9.0) million in the prior year period. The improvement related to higher Adjusted Gross Profit⁽¹⁾ and lower Adjusted SG&A⁽¹⁾.

Balance Sheet, Liquidity and Cash Flow

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had $32.5 million in cash and approximately $28 million of available borrowing capacity on its Revolving Credit Facility. The Company finished the third quarter with $122.8 million in principal balance on its Term Loan outstanding, $9.9 million in finance leases, and $0.1 million in other debt outstanding. During 2023, the Company has maintained a zero balance on its Revolving Credit Facility and is in compliance with debt covenants as of September 30, 2023.

The Company generated net cash from operating activities of $7.7 million and invested $0.8 million in capital expenditures, yielding Free Cash Flow⁽¹⁾ of $6.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023. As a result of the positive cash flow generated during the third quarter, the Company's cash level increased by $5.8 million from the prior quarter, to $32.5 million.

Full Year 2023 Outlook

The Company is reaffirming its full year 2023 outlook with the following assumptions and expectations:

• Net sales of approximately $230 million to $240 million, and expect results to be around the low end of the range.
• Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ that is modestly positive for the full year.
• Free Cash Flow⁽¹⁾ that is positive for the full year.
• Improved year-over-year Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit margin resulting primarily from (i) cost savings associated with restructuring and related productivity initiatives and (ii) an expectation of minimal additional non-restructuring inventory and accounts receivable reserves or related charges beyond the amounts already incurred in the nine months year-to-date.
• Reduction in inventory and net working capital helping to generate positive Free Cash Flow⁽¹⁾ for the full year.

The Company is updating the following assumption:

• Revising its expectation of capital expenditures downward to approximately $4.5 million to $5.5 million from approximately $7.0 million to $9.0 million previously.

^{(1) Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted SG&A, Adjusted SG&A as a percent of net sales, Adjusted EBITDA, and Free Cash Flow are non-GAAP measures. For reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP measures see the “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures” accompanying the release.}

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We report our financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”). Management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with additional useful information in evaluating our performance and that excluding certain items that may vary substantially in frequency and magnitude period-to-period from net loss provides useful supplemental measures that assist in evaluating our ability to generate earnings and to more readily compare these metrics between past and future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures may be different than similarly titled measures used by other companies.

To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements which are prepared in accordance with GAAP, we use “Adjusted EBITDA”, “Adjusted Gross Profit”, “Adjusted SG&A”, “Free Cash Flow”, “Net Debt”, and “Liquidity” which are non-GAAP financial measures. We also present certain of these non-GAAP metrics as a percentage of net sales. Our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as substitutes for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are several limitations related to the use of our non-GAAP financial measures as compared to the closest comparable GAAP measures.

We define Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) as net loss (GAAP) excluding interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization, stock-based compensation including employer payroll taxes on stock-based compensation, restructuring charges which represent fundamental changes to our operations, and other non-cash, unusual and/or infrequent costs (i.e., impairments, severance, acquisition and integration expenses, distribution center exit costs, and other income/expense, net), which we do not consider in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance.

We define Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) as a percent of net sales as adjusted EBITDA (as defined above) divided by net sales realized in the respective period.

We define Adjusted Gross Profit (non-GAAP) as gross profit (GAAP) excluding depreciation, depletion, and amortization, restructuring charges, and other non-cash, unusual and/or infrequent costs (i.e., severance and other expenses, and acquisition and integration expenses), which we do not consider in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance.

We define Adjusted Gross Profit Margin (non-GAAP) as a percent of net sales as Adjusted Gross Profit (as defined above) divided by net sales realized in the respective period.

We define Adjusted SG&A (non-GAAP) as SG&A (GAAP) excluding depreciation, depletion, and amortization, stock-based compensation including employer payroll taxes on stock-based compensation, restructuring charges, and other non-cash, unusual and/or infrequent costs (i.e., severance and other expenses, acquisition and integration expenses, and distribution center exit costs), which we do not consider in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance.

We define Adjusted SG&A (non-GAAP) as a percent of net sales as Adjusted SG&A (as defined above) divided by net sales realized in the respective period.

We define Free Cash Flow (non-GAAP) as Net cash from (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment. We believe this provides additional insight into the Company's ability to generate cash and maintain liquidity. However, Free Cash Flow does not represent funds available for investment or other discretionary uses since it does not deduct cash used to service our debt or other cash flows from financing activities.

We define Liquidity as total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, plus available borrowing capacity on our Revolving Credit Facility.

We define Net Debt as total debt principal outstanding plus finance lease liabilities, less cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash.
