Phibro Animal Health Corporation Reports
TEANECK, N.J., February 10, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE)
- Phibro Animal Health Corporation (NASDAQ:PAHC) today announced its financial results for its second quarter ended December
Commenting on the quarter,
Jack Bendheim, Phibro's Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Our Animal Health and Mineral Nutrition
businesses continued their sales and earnings growth, resulting in another quarter of solid performance. Looking to the future,
we are excited about our entry into the swine vaccine market through our recent agreements with MJ Biologics, Inc."
Net sales of $188.7 million increased $15.9
million, or 9%, for the three months ended December 31, 2014, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2013,
due to growth in Animal Health and Mineral Nutrition of $10.8 million and $8.1 million, respectively, offset by declines in Performance
Products of $3.0 million.
Net sales of $118.8 million grew $10.8 million,
or 10%, primarily due to volume growth. Medicated Feed Additives ("MFAs") and other grew $7.3 million, or 9%, primarily
due to volume growth in international markets. Nutritional specialty products grew $4.4 million, or 27%, primarily due to U.S.
volume growth of our products for the dairy industry and their introduction in select European countries. Vaccines declined $0.9
million, or 8%, principally from volume declines due to international product registration delays, offset in part by U.S. volume
Net sales of $58.7 million increased $8.1
million, or 16%. Increased volumes accounted for approximately two-thirds of the sales growth, as current market conditions improved
demand for certain trace mineral products. The remainder of the sales increase was due to increased average selling prices due
to higher underlying raw material commodity prices.
Performance Products
Net sales of $11.2 million decreased $3.0
million, or 21%, primarily as a result of lower volumes of copper-based products due to reduced industrial demand. Lower volumes
of personal care products also contributed to the decrease. Net sales also declined due to lower average selling prices related
to reduced underlying raw material commodity prices.
Gross profit of $56.1 million increased $5.0
million, or 10%, to 29.7% of net sales, with a majority of the improvement coming from Animal Health. Animal Health gross profit
increased $5.3 million, with approximately $4.3 million due to volume growth and favorable product mix and $1.3 million due to
higher average selling prices and other items, partially offset by $0.3 million of higher product costs. Within Animal Health,
MFAs and other contributed $3.3 million of the increase due to volume growth and average selling prices, partially offset by higher
unit costs, nutritional specialty products contributed $2.9 million of the increase primarily due to volume growth, higher average
selling prices and lower unit costs from improved operating efficiencies and vaccines gross profit decreased $0.9 million principally
due to volume declines and product mix. Mineral Nutrition gross profit increased $1.0 million due to higher average selling prices
and higher volumes, partially offset by higher product costs. Performance Products gross profit decreased $1.1 million due to lower
average selling prices and lower volumes.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A")
expenses of $36.3 million increased $2.2 million, or 6%. Animal Health accounted for $1.4 million of the increase, driven by sales
and marketing and development spending. Selling headcount and related marketing support increased to support MFA and vaccine initiatives
and the expansion of our products to the dairy industry. Development spending focused on product lifecycle extensions. Corporate
expenses accounted for $0.8 million of the increase due to salary and wage-related costs and professional fees, in part related
to the costs of being a public company.
Adjusted EBITDA of $25.0 million increased
$2.7 million, or 12%. Animal Health adjusted EBITDA increased $3.8 million, or 15%, due to sales growth and increased gross profit,
partially offset by increased SG&A expenses. Mineral Nutrition increased $0.9 million, or 30%, due to higher sales volumes
and improved operating margins. Performance Products decreased $0.9 million, or 85%, due to lower sales volumes. Corporate expense
increased $1.0 million due to increases in salary and wage-related costs and professional fees, in part related to the costs of
being a public company.
Interest expense, net
Interest expense, net, of $3.5 million decreased
$5.2 million due to the net result of issuing the Term B Loan and Revolving Credit Facility in April 2014, retiring the Mayflower
Term Loan, the BFI Term Loan and the Domestic Senior Credit Facility in April 2014 and redeeming the 9.25% Senior Notes in
Foreign currency (gains) losses, net
Foreign currency (gains) losses, net for
the three months ended December 31, 2014, amounted to net gains of $1.0 million, as compared to $1.2 million in net losses for
the three months ended December 31, 2013. Foreign currency gains in the current period were primarily due to the movement
of Brazil, Mexico and Belgium currencies relative to the U.S. dollar. Foreign currency gains and losses primarily arise from intercompany
Provision for income taxes
Income taxes of $1.9 million were recorded
on consolidated pre-tax income of $17.3 million, a 10.9% effective tax rate. The tax provision is comprised primarily of income
taxes relating to profitable foreign jurisdictions. The provision for income taxes on domestic pre-tax income was substantially
offset by the utilization of domestic net operating losses that previously had been offset by a valuation allowance.
Adjusted diluted EPS
Adjusted diluted EPS was $0.35 for the
quarter, compared with $0.34 last year on a pro forma adjusted basis. The pro forma adjustments to last year reflect the effects
of our April 2014 initial public offering and refinancing. The pro forma adjustments assume the additional common shares and the
refinancing occurred at the beginning of the periods.

Financial Information: We use non-GAAP financial measures, such as adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and pro forma adjusted
diluted earnings per share, to assess and analyze our operational results and trends and to make financial and operational decisions.
Management uses adjusted EBITDA as its primary operating measure. We report Adjusted Net Income to portray
the results of our operations prior to considering certain income statement elements. We report pro forma adjusted diluted
earnings per share to reflect the pro forma effects of the IPO and refinancing on all periods presented. We believe these non-GAAP
financial measures are also useful to investors because they provide greater transparency regarding our operating performance.
