Core & Main Inc. (NYSE: CNM), a leading specialized distributor of water, wastewater, storm drainage and fire protection products, and related services, today announced financial results for the third fiscal quarter ended October 30, 2022.

Fiscal 2022 Third Quarter Highlights (Compared with Fiscal 2021 Third Quarter)

  • Net sales increased 29.4% to $1,818 million
  • Gross profit margin increased 110 basis points to 27.5%
  • Net income increased 63.3% to $178 million
  • Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP) increased 45.5% to $275 million
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin (Non-GAAP) increased 160 basis points to 15.1%
  • Net cash provided by operating activities increased $121 million to $154 million
  • Net Debt Leverage (Non-GAAP) declined to 1.7x as of October 30, 2022
  • Closed four acquisitions during and subsequent to the quarter: Inland Water Works Supply Co., the municipal waterworks division of Trumbull Industries and an affiliated entity (collectively "Trumbull"), Distributors, Inc. and Lanier Municipal Supply Co.
  • Opened a new location in Fort Collins, Colorado
  • Raising expectation for fiscal 2022 Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $910 to $930 million, representing year-over-year growth of 51% to 54%

"Core & Main's third quarter results reflect our team's execution and the resilience of our business in a dynamic environment," said Steve LeClair, chief executive officer of Core & Main.

"We delivered our eighth consecutive quarter of double-digit year-over-year net sales growth, with third quarter net sales exceeding our expectations due to healthy end-market demand, robust performance across our growth initiatives and continued price realization. This is an impressive accomplishment considering the 39% net sales growth we achieved in the same period last year. Municipal repair and replacement activity remains strong, and we continue to see an acceleration of non-residential construction activity."

LeClair concluded, "We welcomed four new companies to Core & Main during and subsequent to the quarter, strengthening our teams, product lines and geographic footprint, while highlighting our ability to drive sustainable growth through M&A. Our acquisitions are a key source of new talent and expertise, and they continue to enhance our competitive position as we grow. We also opened a new location in Fort Collins, Colorado, extending our offerings in northern Colorado and southern Wyoming. While we face many economic uncertainties, we remain confident in our team, resilient business model, strong balance sheet, and our ability to continue growing the business through targeted growth initiatives."

Three Months Ended October 30, 2022

Net sales for the three months ended October 30, 2022 increased $413 million, or 29.4%, to $1,818 million compared with $1,405 million for the three months ended October 31, 2021. The increase in net sales was primarily attributable to price inflation, volume growth and acquisitions, with price inflation representing approximately three-fourths of the net sales increase. The volume increases were driven by market volume growth, which helped drive growth across all product lines, and share gains from the execution of our sales initiatives. Net sales growth for pipes, valves & fittings and storm drainage products benefited from price inflation, end-market growth and acquisitions. Net sales growth for fire protection products also benefited from price inflation and end-market growth. Net sales growth for meter products benefited from higher volumes due to improving supply chains for semi-conductor chips, which are components of certain smart meter products.

Gross profit for the three months ended October 30, 2022 increased $129 million, or 34.8%, to $500 million compared with $371 million for the three months ended October 31, 2021. The increase in net sales contributed an additional $109 million of gross profit and the increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales contributed $20 million. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended October 30, 2022 was 27.5% compared with 26.4% for the three months ended October 31, 2021. The overall increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales was primarily attributable to strategic inventory investments ahead of announced price increases, favorable product mix and the execution of our gross margin initiatives.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the three months ended October 30, 2022 increased $43 million, or 22.9%, to $231 million compared with $188 million during the three months ended October 31, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase of $31 million in personnel expenses, which was driven by higher variable compensation costs and headcount. In addition, distribution and facility costs increased related to volume and inflation. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales was 12.7% for the three months ended October 30, 2022 compared with 13.4% for the three months ended October 31, 2021. The decrease was attributable to our ability to leverage our fixed costs during fiscal 2022.

Net income for the three months ended October 30, 2022 increased $69 million, or 63.3%, to $178 million compared with $109 million for the three months ended October 31, 2021. The increase in net income was primarily attributable to higher operating income, partially offset by higher interest expense and provision for income taxes.

Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended October 30, 2022 increased $86 million, or 45.5%, to $275 million compared with $189 million for the three months ended October 31, 2021. Growth in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily attributable to higher net sales, improved gross profit margins, and leveraging our cost structure on the increase in net sales. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased 160 basis points to 15.1% from 13.5% in the prior year period.

Nine Months Ended October 30, 2022

Net sales for the nine months ended October 30, 2022 increased $1,519 million, or 40.4%, to $5,277 million compared with $3,758 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2021. The increase in net sales was primarily attributable to price inflation, volume growth and acquisitions, with price inflation representing approximately three-fourths of the net sales increase. The volume increases were driven by market volume growth and share gains in part due to preferred access to products during a period of material shortages, which helped drive growth across all product lines, and the execution of our sales initiatives. Net sales growth for pipes, valves & fittings and storm drainage products benefited from price inflation, end-market growth and acquisitions. Net sales growth for fire protection products also benefited from price inflation and end-market growth. Net sales of meter products grew at a slower pace primarily due to shortages of semi-conductor chips, which are components of certain smart meter products.

Gross profit for the nine months ended October 30, 2022 increased $469 million, or 49.2%, to $1,422 million compared with $953 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2021. The increase in net sales contributed an additional $386 million of gross profit and the increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales contributed $83 million. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the nine months ended October 30, 2022 was 26.9% compared with 25.4% for the nine months ended October 31, 2021. The overall increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales was primarily attributable to strategic inventory investments ahead of announced price increases, a favorable pricing environment, the execution of our gross margin initiatives and accretive acquisitions.

SG&A expenses for the nine months ended October 30, 2022 increased $133 million, or 24.9%, to $667 million compared with $534 million during the nine months ended October 31, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase of $107 million in personnel expenses, which was driven by higher variable compensation costs and headcount from acquisitions. In addition, distribution and facility costs increased related to volume, inflation and acquisitions. These factors were partially offset by a $13 million decrease related to equity-based compensation expense due to accounting for a modification to equity awards in the prior year period. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales was 12.6% for the nine months ended October 30, 2022 compared with 14.2% for the nine months ended October 31, 2021. The decrease was attributable to our ability to leverage our fixed costs and lower equity-based compensation expense during fiscal 2022.

Net income for the nine months ended October 30, 2022 increased $351 million, or 240.4%, to $497 million compared with $146 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2021. The increase in net income was primarily attributable to higher operating income, the $51 million loss on debt modification and extinguishment and equity award modification expense, both of which occurred in fiscal 2021, and lower interest expense, partially offset by an increase in income taxes.

Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended October 30, 2022 increased $318 million, or 70.2%, to $771 million compared with $453 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2021. Growth in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily attributable to higher net sales, improved gross profit margins, and leveraging our cost structure on the increase in net sales. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased 250 basis points to 14.6% from 12.1% in the prior year period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended October 30, 2022 increased $121 million, or 366.7%, to $154 million compared with $33 million for the three months ended October 31, 2021. The improvement in operating cash flow was primarily driven by higher operating income and lower investment in working capital, partially offset by a $31 million increase in tax payments due to higher income before provision for income taxes.

Net debt, calculated as gross consolidated debt net of cash and cash equivalents, as of October 30, 2022 was $1,571 million. Net Debt Leverage (defined as the ratio of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA for the last 12 months) was 1.7x, an improvement of 1.1x from October 31, 2021. The improvement was attributable to an increase in Adjusted EBITDA, partially offset by a $90 million increase in borrowings under our Senior ABL Credit Facility.

As of October 30, 2022, Core & Main had total liquidity of $1,151 million, consisting of excess availability under our Senior ABL Credit Facility, which is net of $90 million of borrowings and approximately $9 million of outstanding letters of credit.

Fiscal 2022 Outlook

"We expect to deliver strong performance in the fourth quarter despite the 50% net sales growth we achieved in the same period last year," LeClair continued. "We expect demand to remain resilient, supported by our balanced business mix and the execution of our growth initiatives. We remain confident in the long-term stability of our business and end-markets, as roughly half of our net sales are driven by non-discretionary repair and replacement activity. Taken altogether, we are raising our expectation for fiscal 2022 Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $910 to $930 million, representing year-over-year growth of 51% to 54%."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to providing results that are determined in accordance with GAAP, we present EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Net Debt Leverage, which are non-GAAP financial measures. These measures are not considered measures of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and the items excluded therefrom are significant components in understanding and assessing our financial performance or liquidity. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to GAAP measures such as net income or net income attributable to Core & Main, Inc., as applicable, cash provided by or used in operating, investing or financing activities or other financial statement data presented in our financial statements as an indicator of our financial performance or liquidity.

We define EBITDA as net income or net income attributable to Core & Main, Inc., as applicable, adjusted for non-controlling interests, depreciation and amortization, provision for income taxes and interest expense. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA as further adjusted for certain items management believes are not reflective of the underlying operations of our business, including (a) loss on debt modification and extinguishment, (b) equity-based compensation, (c) expenses associated with the IPO and subsequent secondary offerings and (d) expenses associated with acquisition activities. Net income attributable to Core & Main, Inc. is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. We define Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. We define Net Debt Leverage as total consolidated debt (gross of unamortized discounts and debt issuance costs), net of cash and cash equivalents, divided by Adjusted EBITDA for the last twelve months.

We use EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Net Debt Leverage to assess the operating results and effectiveness and efficiency of our business. Adjusted EBITDA includes amounts otherwise attributable to non-controlling interests as we manage the consolidated company and evaluate operating performance in a similar manner. We present these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe that investors consider them to be important supplemental measures of performance, and we believe that these measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. Non-GAAP financial measures as reported by us may not be comparable to similarly titled metrics reported by other companies and may not be calculated in the same manner. These measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. For example, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA:

  • do not reflect the significant interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on debt;
  • do not reflect income tax expenses, the cash requirements to pay taxes or related distributions;
  • do not reflect cash requirements to replace in the future any assets being depreciated and amortized; and
  • exclude certain transactions or expenses as allowed by the various agreements governing our indebtedness.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Net Debt Leverage are not alternative measures of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and therefore should be considered in conjunction with net income, net income attributable to Core & Main, Inc. and other performance measures such as gross profit or net cash provided by or used in operating, investing or financing activities and not as alternatives to such GAAP measures. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that, in the future, we may incur expenses similar to those eliminated in this presentation.

No reconciliation of the estimated range for Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2022 is included herein because we are unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in net income attributable to Core & Main, Inc., the most directly comparable GAAP measure, without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability and difficulty to predict certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA. Consequently, we believe such reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that would be misleading to investors. In particular, the effects of acquisition expenses and associated taxes cannot be reasonably predicted in light of the inherent difficulty in quantifying such items on a forward-looking basis. We expect the variability of these excluded items may have an unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of net income or net income attributable to Core & Main, Inc. to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented, as well as a calculation of Adjusted EBITDA margin for the periods presented:
