The AZEK Company Inc. (the “Company” or “AZEK”) (NYSE: AZEK), the industry-leading manufacturer of beautiful, low-maintenance and environmentally sustainable outdoor living products, including TimberTech® decking and Versatex® and AZEK Trim®, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended June 30, 2021 of its fiscal year 2021.

CEO COMMENTS

“The AZEK Company once again delivered strong revenue and growth within the quarter, driven primarily by solid execution and underlying demand for products across channels in our Residential businesses, and improving sales trends in our Commercial segment,” commented Jesse Singh, AZEK’s Chief Executive Officer. “During the quarter, we completed the second phase of our approximately $230 million multi-phase expansion plan and delivered over 50% growth in our Residential segment. While we saw increasing inflation and availability challenges in materials, labor and transportation, we were able to navigate through these challenges to meet the exceptional underlying demand and modestly replenish inventory in the dealer channel. Our focus has and will continue to be on increasing service levels to our customers and our channel partners. Although we saw incrementally higher than expected costs within the quarter, we expect that our pricing and productivity actions will increasingly offset the impact of these higher costs, giving us conviction to deliver margin improvement as we look ahead to 2022.”

“We continue to make progress against our key initiatives, including growth through innovation, margin expansion through recycle and continuous improvement, and positively impacting the world through our commitments to ESG stewardship. In recognition of our ESG leadership within the vinyl industry, we recently achieved +Vantage Vinyl verification by the Vinyl Sustainability Council. It is clear that our broad, branded portfolio is resonating with customers and gaining momentum, especially with strong sales from our new product innovations in decking and exteriors over the last several quarters,” continued Mr. Singh.

“We remain excited about what the future will hold for AZEK and believe we are well positioned for sustainable growth, fueled by a strong outdoor living market, ongoing product expansion and material conversion opportunities. In June, we celebrated an exciting milestone – our first year as a public company. I am thankful to our entire team for their unwavering commitment to advancing our growth initiatives and their dedication to our customers, especially during such a challenging and unprecedented year,” concluded Mr. Singh.

THIRD QUARTER FISCAL 2021 CONSOLIDATED RESULTS

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $103.7 million, or 46.4%, to $327.5 million from $223.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was attributable to higher sales growth in both our Residential and Commercial segments. Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased for our Residential segment by 51.2% and increased for our Commercial segment by 16.5%, in each case as compared to the prior year.

Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $31.7 million, or 42.3%, to $106.9 million from $75.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by the strong sales results in the Residential and Commercial segment, pricing and manufacturing productivity, partially offset by higher costs. Gross profit margin decreased to 32.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to 33.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2020, partially due to the rapid rise in input costs ahead of price realization. Adjusted Gross Profit Margin decreased 290 basis points to 37.9%, compared to 40.8% for the prior year period.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $5.1 million, or 7.9%, to $70.3 million, or 21.5% of net sales, for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from $65.2 million, or 29.1% of net sales, for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to higher personnel costs, public company costs, professional fees and marketing expenses in the period as expenses normalized following a pullback in expenses during the same period last year at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was partially offset by lower stock-based compensation expense as a result of the issued shares in our initial public offering in 2020.

Net income increased by $73.9 million to $21.8 million, or $0.14 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to a net loss of $52.1 million, or ($0.44) per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to strong operating results and a decrease in interest expense resulting from the reduced principal amount outstanding under our Term Loan Agreement and an absence of the loss on debt extinguishment of our formerly outstanding 2025 Senior Notes and 2021 Senior Notes.

Net margin expanded to 6.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to net margin of (23.3%) for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Adjusted Net Income increased $34.3 million to $40.5 million, or Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.26 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to Adjusted Net Income of $6.2 million, or Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.05 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Adjusted EBITDA increased by $14.9 million to $72.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $57.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was mainly driven by higher sales growth in both our Residential and Commercial segments and higher gross profit. Adjusted EBITDA Margin declined 360 basis points to 22.2% from 25.8% for the prior year period.

THIRD QUARTER FISCAL 2021 SEGMENT RESULTS

Residential Segment

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $98.6 million, or 51.2%, to $291.2 million from $192.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net sales in both our Deck, Rail & Accessories and Exteriors businesses.

Segment Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $20.2 million, or 32.4%, to $82.5 million from $62.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was mainly driven by higher sales and manufacturing productivity, partially offset by higher raw material and manufacturing costs and selling, general and administrative expenses. Segment Adjusted EBITDA Margin declined 410 basis points to 28.3% from 32.4% for the prior year period.

Commercial Segment

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $5.1 million, or 16.5%, to $36.2 million from $31.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net sales in our Vycom business, partially offset by decreased net sales in our Scranton Products business.

Segment Adjusted EBITDA of the Commercial segment was $6.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $5.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily driven by higher sales in the Vycom business and net manufacturing productivity. Segment Adjusted EBITDA Margin expanded 120 basis points to 17.3% from 16.1% for the prior year period.

NINE MONTHS FISCAL 2021 RESULTS

Net sales for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $197.5 million, or 31.1%, to $832.9 million from $635.3 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to higher sales growth in our Residential segment which grew 37.2% partially offset by a 3.1% decline in the Commercial segment.

Net income increased by $112.5 million to $54.6 million, or $0.35 per share, for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 compared to a net loss of $57.9 million, or ($0.51) for the nine months ended June 30, 2020, primarily driven by strong operating results and a decrease in interest expense resulting from the reduced principal amount outstanding under the Term Loan Agreement and an absence of the loss on debt extinguishment of our formerly outstanding 2025 Senior Notes and 2021 Senior Notes. Net margin expanded to 6.6% for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 compared to net margin of (9.1%) for the nine months ended June 30, 2020.

Adjusted Net Income was $102.8 million, or Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.66 per share, for the nine months ended June 30, 2021, compared to Adjusted Net Income of $28.3 million, or Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.25 per share, for the nine months ended June 30, 2020.

Adjusted EBITDA for the first nine months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $45.3 million to $192.7 million from $147.4 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020

BALANCE SHEET, CASH FLOW and LIQUIDITY

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $220.5 million and approximately $145.6 million available for future borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility. Total debt as of June 30, 2021 was $467.7 million.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $118.7 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $11.3 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2020.

OUTLOOK

“Given the continued market strength, our recent capacity additions, pricing actions and our disciplined approach to execution, we believe we’re well positioned to deliver strong growth and margin expansion as we look ahead to 2022. We continue to invest in our brand, our people and our key strategic initiatives to fuel the long-term, sustainable growth of the business, while maintaining our focus on meeting customer demand and delivering a best-in-class consumer experience. Despite higher costs in the near-term, our long-term growth and margin expansion goals remain intact. We are reaffirming our positive outlook on the broader Outdoor Living category and our position as the innovation leader within it,” continued Mr. Singh.

As a result of the Company’s initiatives and a continued favorable demand environment, AZEK is raising its consolidated net sales and Adjusted EBITDA midpoint outlook for the full year fiscal 2021. AZEK now expects consolidated net sales growth of 28% to 30% year-over-year. From a segment perspective, AZEK now expects Residential segment net sales growth in the low-to-mid 30% range year-over-year, partially offset by a low-single digit decline in Commercial segment net sales. The Company is raising the midpoint of its Adjusted EBITDA growth outlook to between 27% to 29% range year-over-year. The outlook includes increased sales, pricing and productivity actions, strategic investments and higher costs.

For the fourth quarter fiscal 2021 guidance, AZEK expects consolidated net sales growth in the 22% to 27% range year-over-year, driven by strong Residential segment growth in the mid-to-high 20% range, partially offset with low-to-mid single digits growth in its Commercial segment. AZEK is expecting Adjusted EBITDA growth in the 19% to 25% range year-over-year.

We have based these forward-looking statements primarily on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy, short-term and long-term business operations and objectives and financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those described in the section titled "Risk Factors" set forth in Part II, Item 1A of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for our third quarter of fiscal 2021 and in our other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2020. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the future events and trends discussed in this earnings release may not occur and actual results may differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. You should read this earnings release with the understanding that our actual future results, levels of activity, performance and events and circumstances may be materially different from what we expect.

These statements are based on information available to us as of the date of this earnings release. While we believe that such information provides a reasonable basis for these statements, such information may be limited or incomplete. Our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all relevant information. We disclaim any intention and undertake no obligation to update or revise any of our forward-looking statements after the date of this release to reflect actual results or future events or circumstances whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

To supplement our earnings release and consolidated financial statements prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or (“GAAP”), we use certain non-GAAP performance financial measures, as described within this earnings release, to provide investors with additional useful information about our financial performance, to enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects and to allow for greater transparency with respect to important metrics used by our management for financial and operational decision-making. We are presenting these non-GAAP financial measures to assist investors in seeing our financial performance from management’s view and because we believe they provide an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our core financial performance over multiple periods with other companies in our industry. Our GAAP financial results include significant expenses that may not be indicative of our ongoing operations as detailed within this earnings release.

However, non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in their usefulness to investors because they have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and are not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. In addition, non-GAAP financial measures may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be directly comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. As a result, non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplementing, and not as an alternative or substitute for, our earnings release and our consolidated financial statements prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

We define Adjusted Gross Profit as gross profit before depreciation and amortization, business transformation costs and acquisition costs as described below. Adjusted Gross Profit Margin is equal to Adjusted Gross Profit divided by net sales.

We define Adjusted Net Income as net income (loss) before amortization, share-based compensation costs, business transformation costs, acquisition costs, initial public offering costs and certain other costs as described below.

We define Adjusted Diluted EPS as Adjusted Net Income divided by weighted average common shares outstanding – diluted, to reflect the conversion or exercise, as applicable, of all outstanding shares of restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and options to purchase shares of our common stock.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, net, income tax (benefit) expense and depreciation and amortization and by adding to or subtracting therefrom items of expense and income as described above.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin is equal to Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. Net Leverage is equal to gross debt less cash and cash equivalents, divided by trailing twelve month Adjusted EBITDA. We believe Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Net Leverage are useful to investors because they help identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be masked by certain expenses that can vary from company to company depending on, among other things, its financing, capital structure and the method by which its assets were acquired, and can also vary significantly from period to period. We also add back depreciation and amortization and share-based compensation because we do not consider them indicative of our core operating performance. We believe their exclusion facilitates comparisons of our operating performance on a period-to-period basis. Therefore, we believe that showing gross profit and net income, as adjusted to remove the impact of these expenses, is helpful to investors in assessing our gross profit and net income performance in a way that is similar to the way management assesses our performance. Additionally, EBITDA and EBITDA margin are common measures of operating performance in our industry, and we believe they facilitate operating comparisons. Our management also uses Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin in conjunction with other GAAP financial measures for planning purposes, including as a measure of our core operating results and the effectiveness of our business strategy, and in evaluating our financial performance. Management considers Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Net Income as useful measures because our cost of sales includes the depreciation of property, plant and equipment used in the production of products and the amortization of various intangibles related to our manufacturing processes. Further, management considers Net Leverage as a useful measure to assess our borrowing capacity.

Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Net Leverage have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

  • These measures do not reflect our cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
  • These measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
  • Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt;
  • Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin do not reflect our income tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes;
  • Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and Adjusted EBITDA exclude the expense of depreciation, in the case of Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted EBITDA, and amortization, in each case, of our assets, and, although these are non-cash expenses, the assets being depreciated may have to be replaced in the future;
  • Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and Adjusted EBITDA exclude the expense associated with our equity compensation plan, although equity compensation has been, and will continue to be, an important part of our compensation strategy;
  • Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and Adjusted EBITDA exclude certain business transformation costs, acquisition costs and other costs, each of which can affect our current and future cash requirements; and
  • Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Net Leverage differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

Because of these limitations, none of these metrics should be considered indicative of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business or as measures of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations.

Segment Adjusted EBITDA

Depending on certain circumstances, Segment Adjusted EBITDA may be calculated differently, from time to time, than our Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, which are further discussed under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” Segment Adjusted EBITDA represents a measure of segment profit reported to our chief operating decision maker for the purpose of making decisions about allocating resources to a segment and assessing its performance. For more information regarding how Segment Adjusted EBITDA is determined, see our Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 filed with the SEC.

Outlook

We have not reconciled Adjusted EBITDA guidance to its most comparable GAAP measure as a result of the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, reconciling items such as the variability in the provision for income taxes, the estimates for warranty and rebate accruals and timing of the gain or loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment. Such reconciling items that impact Adjusted EBITDA have not occurred, are outside of our control or cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to its most comparable GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable effort. However, it is important to note that material changes to these reconciling items could have a significant effect on our Adjusted EBITDA guidance and future GAAP results.
