Capital Structure Activities
Redemption of the April 2016 Senior Unsecured Notes and Issuance of the October 2018 Senior Unsecured Notes
On October 11, 2018, HD Supply issued $750 million of 5.375% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2026 (“the October 2018 Senior Unsecured Notes”) at par. The Company used the net proceeds from the October 2018 Senior Unsecured Notes issuance, together with available cash and borrowings on our revolving credit facility, to redeem all of the outstanding $1,000 million aggregate principal of the 5.75% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2024.
Amendment of the Term Loan Facility and New Interest Rate Swap
On October 22, 2018, HD Supply entered into an amendment to the existing Term Loan Facility, which allowed for the refinancing of all the outstanding term loans totaling $1,070 million with a new tranche of term loans (the “Term B-5 Loans”) in the amount of $1,070 million, at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.75% or base rate plus 0.75%, maturing on October 17, 2023. On October 24, 2018, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement, which effectively converts $750 million of the Company’s Term B-5 Loans from a rate of LIBOR plus 1.75% to a 4.82% fixed rate. With this transaction, the interest on more than 75% of our debt has effectively been fixed.
Share Repurchase Program
On November 30, 2018, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program for the repurchase of up to an aggregate $500 million of its common stock. The Company will conduct repurchases under the share repurchase program in the open market and through broker negotiated purchases in compliance with Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and subject to market conditions, restrictive covenants contained in existing debt agreements, applicable legal requirements and other relevant factors. This share repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of its common stock, and it may be terminated at any time at the Company’s discretion. As of November 30, 2018, the Company has $656 million remaining under its new and previous share repurchase authorizations.
Fourth-Quarter and Full Year 2018 Outlook
For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018, Net sales are anticipated to be in the range of $1,375 million and $1,425 million, Adjusted EBITDA1 in the range of $173 million and $183 million and Adjusted net income per diluted share1 in the range of $0.63 and $0.68. The Adjusted net income per diluted share range assumes a fully diluted weighted average share count of approximately 180 million. At the mid-point of the ranges, our fourth-quarter 2018 Net sales and Adjusted EBITDA translate into approximately 18 percent growth and 17 percent growth, respectively, versus prior year.
For the full year fiscal 2018, Net sales are anticipated to be in the range of $5,976 million and $6,026 million, Adjusted EBITDA1 in the range of $857 million and $867 million and Adjusted net income per diluted share1 in the range of $3.33 and $3.38. The Adjusted net income per diluted share range assumes a fully diluted weighted average share count of approximately 183 million. At the mid-point of the ranges, our full year 2018 Net sales and Adjusted EBITDA translate into approximately 17 percent growth and 18 percent growth, respectively, versus prior year.
Fiscal 2018 Third-Quarter Conference Call
As previously announced, HD Supply will hold a conference call on Tuesday, December 4th, 2018 at 8:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) to discuss its third-quarter results. The conference call and presentation materials can be accessed via webcast by logging on from the Investor Relations section of the company’s Web site at hdsupply.com. The online replay will remain available for a limited time following the call.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
HD Supply supplements its reporting of Net income with non-GAAP measurements, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income and Adjusted net income per diluted share. This supplemental information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the GAAP measurements. Additional information regarding Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income and Adjusted net income per diluted share referred to in this press release is included below under “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures.”
About HD Supply
HD Supply (www.hdsupply.com) is one of the largest industrial distributors in North America. The company provides a broad range of products and value-add services to approximately 500,000 customers with leadership positions in the maintenance, repair and operations and specialty construction sectors.

1 No reconciliation of the forecasted range for Adjusted EBITDA to Net income or Income from Continuing Operations and Adjusted net income per diluted share to Net income per diluted share or Income from Continuing Operations per diluted share for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 or the full year fiscal 2018 is included in this press release because we are unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the GAAP measure without unreasonable efforts. In addition, the company believes such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income are not recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be alternatives to Net income as a measure of operating performance. We present Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income because each is a primary measure used by management to evaluate operating performance. In addition, we present Adjusted net income to measure our overall profitability as we believe it is an important measure of our performance. We believe the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income enhances investors’ overall understanding of the financial performance of our business.
Adjusted EBITDA is based on “Consolidated EBITDA,” a measure which is defined in our senior credit facilities and used in calculating financial ratios in several material debt covenants. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Net income less Income from discontinued operations, net of tax, plus (i) Interest expense and Interest income, net, (ii) Provision for income taxes, (iii) depreciation and amortization and further adjusted to exclude loss on extinguishment of debt, non-cash items and certain other adjustments to Consolidated Net Income permitted in calculating Consolidated EBITDA under our senior credit facilities.
Adjusted net income is defined as Net income less Income from discontinued operations, net of tax, further adjusted for loss on extinguishment of debt, certain non-cash, non-recurring or unusual items, net of tax.
We compensate for the limitations of using non-GAAP financial measures by using them to supplement GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than GAAP results alone. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analyzing our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
- Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our interest expense, or the requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our income tax expenses or the cash requirements to pay our taxes
- Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income do not reflect historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; and although depreciation and amortization charges are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements.

No reconciliation of the forecasted range for Adjusted EBITDA to Net income or Income from Continuing Operations and Adjusted net income per diluted share to Net income per diluted share or Income from Continuing Operations per diluted share for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 or full year fiscal 2018 is included in this press release because we are unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the GAAP measure without unreasonable efforts. In addition, the company believes such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors.
