12 November 2019
RICHMOND, Va., Nov. 12, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Synalloy Corporation (Nasdaq: SYNL), today announced net sales for the third quarter of 2019 of $73.6 million. This represents a decrease of $4.2 million or 5.3% when compared to net sales for the third quarter of 2018. Excluding net sales of ASTI, net sales for the third quarter of 2019 decreased $12.6 million, or 16.2% compared to net sales for the third quarter of 2018. Net sales for the first nine months of 2019 were $237.2 million, an increase of $29.1 million or 14.0% from the first nine months of 2018. Excluding net sales of ASTI (for the nine months ended September 30, 2019) and Munhall-Galvanized (for the first six months of 2019), net sales for the first nine months of 2019 decreased $10.4 million, or 5.0% compared to net sales for the first nine months of 2018. For the third quarter of 2019, the Company recorded a net loss of $1.0 million, or $0.11 loss per diluted share, compared to net income of $5.0 million, or $0.56 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2018. Excluding the financial results of ASTI, net income for the third quarter of 2019 decreased $6.8 million, or 134.9% compared to net income for the third quarter of 2018. The third quarter of 2019 was negatively impacted by inventory price change losses which, on a pre-tax basis, totaled $0.6 million, compared to a $1.6 million gain in the third quarter of 2018, as well as non-recurring items, described in more detail below, which totaled $1.6 million. For the first nine months of 2019, net loss was $2.1 million, or $0.24 loss per diluted earnings per share. This compares to net income of $12.5 million, or $1.42 per diluted earnings per share for the first nine months of 2018. Excluding the financial results of ASTI (for the nine months ended September 30, 2019) and Munhall-Galvanized (for the first six months of 2019), net income for the first nine months of 2019 decreased $16.4 million, or 130.4% compared to net income for the first nine months of 2018. The first nine months of 2019 were negatively impacted by inventory price change losses which, on a pre-tax basis, totaled $5.7 million, compared to a $5.1 million gain for the first nine months of 2018, as well as non-recurring items, described in more detail below, which totaled $1.9 million. The Company also reports its performance utilizing two non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted Net (Loss) Income and Adjusted EBITDA. The Company's performance, as calculated under the two measures, is as follows: The Company's results are periodically impacted by factors that are not included as adjustments to our non-GAAP measures, but which represent items that help explain differences in period to period results. As mentioned above, for the third quarter of 2019, the most significant of those was inventory price change losses which, on a pre-tax basis, totaled $0.6 million, compared to a $1.6 million gain in the third quarter of 2018, representing a decrease of $2.2 million in pre-tax income compared to the third quarter 2018. Additionally, during the third quarter, other significant non-recurring items occurred with an estimated pre-tax impact of $1.6 million in the third quarter and $1.9 million for the first nine months of 2019, and included the following: “The third quarter was a continuation of weak demand and depressed pricing across most of our product lines and end markets,” said Craig C. Bram, President and CEO. “In spite of the challenging market, we experienced sequential volume growth over the second quarter for both welded stainless-steel pipe and seamless carbon pipe, taking market share in both product lines. However, prices were down over the second quarter by an average of 7.0%. Ornamental tube volume was off 3% from the second quarter, while prices were up 2.0%, and our galvanized tube showed mid-single digit volume and price declines from second quarter levels. Surcharges for nickel jumped in September and again in October. November surcharges were in line with October, but preliminary estimates for December show declining surcharges as nickel prices have fallen from the $8 plus per pound level reached in August. Backlog pricing for welded stainless-steel pipe is trending higher due to the increase in surcharges and improved product mix. Our storage tank business saw a decline in order activity in the third quarter as capital outlays by E&P customers were limited. Drilled but uncompleted wells have surged to over 3,800 in the Permian Basin alone. Responding to the market, we have reduced our headcount by one-third at our storage tank business. With the recent start-up of two new pipelines in the Permian basin, we expect to see order activity increase in the fourth quarter, assuming WTI prices hold at current levels. Our Specialty Chemical segment saw mid-single digit volume declines over the second quarter, but this was primarily driven by product mix. Pricing improved by 2.0% over the previous quarter,” said Bram. Metals Segment The Metals Segment's net sales for the third quarter of 2019 totaled $60.1 million, a decrease of $0.9 million or 1.5% from the third quarter of 2018. Excluding the net sales of ASTI, Metals Segment net sales for the third quarter of 2019 decreased $9.4 million, or 15.4%, compared to net sales for the third quarter of 2018. Net sales for the first nine months of 2019 were $195.7 million, an increase of $32.8 million or 20.2% from the first nine months of 2018. Excluding the net sales of ASTI and Munhall-Galvanized (for the first six months of 2019), Metals Segment net sales for the first nine months of 2019 decreased $6.6 million, or 4.1%, compared to net sales for the first nine months of 2018. Sales of seamless carbon pipe and tube were up 1.0% from last year’s third quarter. Storage tank and vessel sales decreased 38.4% from last year’s third quarter. Excluding ASTI, pipe and tube sales were down 13.6% from the third quarter of 2018. The backlog for our subsidiary, Bristol Metals, LLC, as of September 30, 2019 was $32.2 million, a decrease of 13.3% when compared to the same date in 2018. The decline is primarily related to lower surcharges and customer pricing, with total pounds backlog up by 50.0%, but indexed components of pricing off between 6.0% and 11.0% in stainless product lines, and by 20.0% in galvanized products from prior year levels, as well as some reduction in base metal pricing. The backlog for our subsidiary, Palmer of Texas Tanks, Inc., as of September 30, 2019, was $4.9 million, a decrease of 75.3%, when compared to the same date in 2018. The decrease in backlog is attributable to a significant retrenchment in completion of wells in the Permian Basin during the third quarter, as well as stagnant oil prices that are down 25.0% from this time last year. The Metals Segment's operating income decreased $7.6 million to $0.5 million for the third quarter of 2019 compared to $8.0 million for the third quarter of 2018. For the first nine months of 2019, operating income decreased for the Metals Segment by $20.0 million to an operating income of $3.1 million compared to operating income of $23.1 million for the same period of 2018. Current quarter operating results were affected by the following factors: Specialty Chemicals Segment Net sales for the Specialty Chemicals Segment in the third quarter of 2019 totaled $13.5 million, representing a $3.2 million or 19.4% decrease from the third quarter of 2018. Sales for the first nine months of 2019 were $41.5 million, a decrease of $3.8 million or 8.4% from 2018 results. The decline of net sales during the third quarter is primarily attributable to opportunistic volume acquired in 2018 for seasonal asphalt additive products totaling $2.4 million that did not repeat in 2019. Lower raw material input costs negatively affected third quarter sales revenue by $0.8 million when compared to third quarter 2018 for customers that receive quarterly pricing. Through the first nine months of 2019, those same factors, non-repeating asphalt volume and lower raw material input costs, negatively affected sales revenue by $4.5 million and $1.2 million, respectively. Operating income for the Specialty Chemicals Segment for the third quarter of 2019 was $0.8 million, a decrease of $0.5 million from the same quarter of 2018. The decline in operating income is directly related to the lower sales revenue and more tolled product being shipped in 2019 compared to 2018. Based on our 2018 and 2019 YTD analysis at the end of third quarter, revenue per pound is flat and material margin per pound is down by $0.01. For the first nine months of 2019, operating income for the Specialty Chemicals Segment was $2.4 million compared to operating income of $3.3 million for the same period of 2018. The prior year's first nine months included a one-time claim settlement gain of $0.3 million. Other Items Unallocated corporate expenses for the third quarter of 2019 increased $0.5 million or 25.0% to $2.4 million (3.2% of sales) compared to $1.9 million (2.4% of sales) for the same period in the prior year comparative period. The third quarter increase resulted primarily from higher stock compensation expense and professional fees. For the first nine months of 2019, unallocated corporate expenses increased $1.0 million or 17.9% to $6.6 million (2.8% of sales) from $5.6 million (2.7% of sales) in the prior year comparative period. For the first nine months of 2019, the increase to unallocated corporate expenses resulted primarily from higher professional fees and stock compensation expense. Acquisition costs were $0.1 million for the third quarter of 2019 (all in unallocated SG&A), resulting from costs associated with the January 1, 2019 American Stainless acquisition. This compares to $0.4 million in acquisition cost ($0.2 million in unallocated SG&A and $0.2 million in Metals Segment SG&A) during the third quarter of 2018 resulting from costs associated with the 2018 MUSA-Galvanized acquisition. For the first nine months of 2019 acquisition costs were $1.8 million ($1.4 million recorded in Metals Segment Cost of Sales and $0.4 million in unallocated SG&A) compared to $1.1 million for the first nine months of 2018 ($0.3 million recorded in Metals Segment Cost of Sales and $0.8 million in unallocated SG&A) resulting from costs associated with the 2018 MUSA-Galvanized acquisition. Interest expense was $0.9 million and $0.6 million for the third quarters of 2019 and 2018, respectively. Interest expense was $3.0 million and $1.3 million for the first nine months of 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase was related to higher average debt outstanding in the third quarter and the first nine months of 2019, as additional borrowings were primarily related to acquisitions and to support increased working capital requirements. The effective tax rate was 10.6% and 23.6% for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2019. The effective tax rate for the three month period ended September 30, 2019 was lower than the statutory rate of 21.0% due to state taxes, net of the federal benefit, and discrete tax benefits on our stock compensation plan. The Company’s effective tax rate was approximately equal to the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 The effective tax rate was 22.0% for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2018, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate was approximately equal to the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0%. The Company's cash balance decreased $1.9 million to $0.3 million as of September 30, 2019 compared to $2.2 million at December 31, 2018. Fluctuations affecting cash flows during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 were comprised of the following: The Company had $83.1 million of total borrowings outstanding with its lender as of September 30, 2019. Since January 1, 2019 when the Company borrowed $22.7 million to fund the American Stainless acquisition ($20.0 million term loan and $2.7 million against the Company’s line of credit), the Company has reduced borrowings by $16.0 million ($2.7 million term loan and $13.3 million line of credit). Covenants under the Credit Agreement include maintaining a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, maintaining a minimum tangible net worth, and a limitation on the Company’s maximum amount of capital expenditures per year, which is in line with currently projected needs. As of September 30, 2019, the Company had $16.9 million of remaining available capacity under its line of credit. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of September 30, 2019. Outlook With less than two months remaining in 2019, we see no signs of improving demand in our end markets. Inventory levels in the welded stainless steel pipe market have normalized, which is a prerequisite for stronger order activity going forward, but is too late to provide any benefit to the current year. We are now projecting Adjusted EBITDA for 2019 of approximately $15.0 million. This forecast takes into consideration the negative impact of inventory price change losses for the year of $5.5 million and $1.9 million in non-recurring items. We do anticipate inventory price change gains of $250,000 in the fourth quarter, reflecting the recent higher surcharges. The Company continues to make excellent progress in reducing its debt. The target for net debt at year-end 2019 is $67.0 million. Synalloy Corporation (Nasdaq: SYNL) is a growth-oriented company that engages in a number of diverse business activities including the production of stainless steel pipe and tubing, galvanized pipe and tubing, fiberglass and steel storage tanks, specialty chemicals, and the master distribution of seamless carbon pipe and tubing.

Non-GAAP Financial Information Financial statement information included in this earnings release includes non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) measures and should be read along with the accompanying tables which provide a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures. Adjusted Net (Loss) Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share are non-GAAP measures and exclude discontinued operations, goodwill impairment, stock option / grant costs, straight line lease costs, acquisition costs, shelf registration costs, earn-out adjustments, gain on excess death benefit, realized and unrealized (gains) and losses on investments in equity securities, casualty insurance gain, all (gains) losses associated with a Sale-Leaseback, and retention costs from net income. They also utilize a constant effective tax rate to reflect tax neutral results. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure and excludes discontinued operations, goodwill impairment, interest expense, change in fair value of interest rate swap, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock option / grant costs, straight line lease cost, acquisition costs, shelf registration costs, earn-out adjustments, gain on excess death benefit, realized and unrealized (gains) and losses on investments in equity securities, casualty insurance gain, all (gains) losses associated with a Sale-Leaseback, and retention costs from net income. Management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide additional useful information to allow readers to compare the financial results between periods. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered as an alternative to any measure of performance or financial condition as promulgated under GAAP, and investors should consider the Company's performance and financial condition as reported under GAAP and all other relevant information when assessing the performance or financial condition of the Company. Non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results or financial condition as reported under GAAP. Contact: Dennis Loughran at (804) 822-3266 (1) The term Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company believes is useful to investors in evaluating its results to determine the value of a company. An item is included in the measure if its periodic value is inconsistent and sufficiently material that not identifying the item would render period comparability less meaningful to the reader or if including the item provides a clearer representation of normalized periodic earnings. The Company includes in Adjusted EBITDA two categories of items: 1) Base EBITDA components, including: earnings before discontinued operations, interest (including change in fair value of interest rate swap), income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and 2) Material transaction costs including: goodwill impairment, acquisition costs, acquisition related retention costs, shelf registration costs, earn-out adjustments, gain on excess death benefit, (gains) losses associated with Sale-leaseback, stock option/grant costs, slight-line lease cost and other adjustments (lesser value items meeting the criteria, where cumulative impact in a period is material). For a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the most comparable GAAP equivalent, refer to the Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA as shown on next page. (1) Acquisition costs include the amortization of the incremental fair value above predecessor cost associated with acquired inventory that was sold during the quarter. (2) Other favorable (unfavorable) impacts to income - listed to provide investors with insight into financial impacts, that cannot be included in the Non-GAAP measure Adjusted EBITDA, but management believes can provide insight into underlying operational earnings associated with the respective period's activity level. The items include a) inventory price change - the calculated value that profits improved (declined) due to the increase (decrease) in metal and alloy pricing indices during the period, and b)inventory valuation adjustments - value of periodic adjustment to inventory carrying value unrelated to periodic earnings including i) reserve for lower of cost or net realizable value, ii) reserve for aged inventory and iii) manufacturing variances - the calculated value of manufacturing absorption deferred into inventory to be amortized in a later period, rather than being shown in the period that created the benefit or cost. (2) Other favorable (unfavorable) impacts to income - listed to provide investors with insight into financial impacts, that cannot be included in the Non-GAAP measure Adjusted Net Income, but management believes can provide insight into underlying operational earnings associated with the respective period's activity level. The items include a) inventory price change - the calculated value that profits improved (declined) due to the increase (decrease) in metal and alloy pricing indices during the period, and b)inventory valuation adjustments - value of periodic adjustment to inventory carrying value unrelated to periodic earnings including i) reserve for lower of cost or net realizable value, ii) reserve for aged inventory and iii) manufacturing variances - the calculated value of manufacturing absorption deferred into inventory to be amortized in a later period, rather than being shown in the period that created the benefit or cost.
