(NYSE:PBH) today reported financial results for its second quarter and year-to-date fiscal 2020 ended September 30, 2019.“Our second quarter and year to-date results were in-line with our expectations, led by positive consumption trends across our portfolio. Our solid financial profile and cash generation allowed us to opportunistically repurchase shares and further reduce debt during Q2. Based on these solid trends and strong cash flow we are well positioned to achieve our full-year fiscal 2020 guidance,” said Ron Lombardi, Chief Executive Officer of Prestige Consumer Healthcare.Second Fiscal Quarter Ended September 30, 2019Reported revenues in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 were $238.1 million compared to $239.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Revenues were flat on an organic basis, which excludes the effect of foreign currency. The revenue performance for the quarter was driven by a strong international segment and consumption gains in the Company’s core brand portfolio domestically, offset by continued retailer inventory reductions.Reported gross profit margin in the second quarter fiscal 2020 was 57.4%, flat with the prior year comparable period. Excluding transition costs associated with a new logistics provider and location, adjusted gross profit margin was 58.0% in second quarter fiscal 2020, an increase versus prior year driven primarily by product mix.Reported net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 totaled $33.3 million versus the prior year comparable period net income of $30.8 million. Diluted earnings per share were $0.65 for the second quarter fiscal 2020, compared to $0.59 per share in the prior year comparable period. Non-GAAP adjusted net income for the second quarter fiscal 2020 was $34.3 million, flat to the prior year comparable period’s adjusted net income of $34.2 million. Non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share were $0.68 per share for the second quarter fiscal 2020, an increase compared to $0.65 per share in the prior year.Adjustments to net income in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 included costs associated with a new logistics provider and location, and the related income tax effects of the adjustments. Adjustments to net income in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 included legal and various other costs associated with the Household Cleaning divestiture, and the related income tax effects.First Half of Fiscal 2020 Ended September 30, 2019Reported revenues for the first six months of fiscal 2020 decreased 4.7% to $470.2 million compared to $493.3 million in the first six months of fiscal 2019. Revenues were flat on an organic basis, which excludes the effect of foreign currency and the divestiture of the non-core Household Cleaning segment in the prior year. The revenue performance for the first six months of fiscal 2020 was driven by strong international segment growth and consumption gains in the Company’s core brand portfolio domestically, offset by retailer inventory reductions.Reported gross profit margin in the first six months of fiscal 2020 was 57.6%, compared to 56.4% for the first six months of fiscal 2019. On an adjusted basis excluding the effects of a new logistics provider and location in the current year, gross profit margin was 57.9% for the first six months of fiscal 2020.Reported net income for the first six months of fiscal 2020 totaled $67.2 million versus the prior year comparable period net income of $65.3 million. Diluted earnings per share were $1.31 for the first six months of fiscal 2020 compared to $1.24 per share in the prior year comparable period. Non-GAAP adjusted net income for the first six months of fiscal 2020 was $68.2 million, versus the prior year comparable period’s adjusted net income of $70.0 million. Non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share were $1.33 per share for the first six months of fiscal 2020 and in the first six months of fiscal 2019. The prior year comparable period results included profit contribution related to the divested Household Cleaning segment.Adjustments to net income in the first six months of fiscal 2020 included costs associated with a new logistics provider and location, and the related income tax effects of the adjustments. Adjustments to net income in the first six months of fiscal 2019 included legal and various other costs and a gain associated with the Household Cleaning divestiture and the related income tax, as well as accelerated amortization of debt origination costs.Free Cash Flow and Balance SheetThe Company’s net cash provided by operating activities for the second quarter 2020 increased to $50.2 million from $39.3 million during the same period a year earlier. Non-GAAP free cash flow for the second quarter fiscal 2020 was $47.2 million, an increase from $44.1 million in the prior year comparable period. In fiscal 2020 year-to-date, the Company used its cash flow to reduce debt by $46 million. The Company also fully executed its previously-authorized $50 million share repurchase program, repurchasing 1.6 million shares in total.The Company’s net debt position as of September 30, 2019 was approximately $1.7 billion, approximately flat versus the prior quarter, as second quarter 2020 cash generation went partially towards share repurchase. At September 30, 2019 the Company’s covenant-defined leverage ratio was 5.0x.Segment ReviewNorth American OTC Healthcare: Segment revenues totaled $213.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2020, compared to the prior year comparable quarter’s revenues of $216.0 million. The second quarter fiscal 2020 revenue performance was attributable to increased consumption for the Company’s core OTC brands which was more than offset by retailer inventory reductions.For the first six months of the current fiscal year, reported revenues for the North American OTC Healthcare segment were $424.7 million compared to $430.7 million in the prior year comparable period. The first six months of fiscal year 2020 was favorably impacted by increased consumption among the majority of core OTC brands, but more than offset by inventory reductions at certain key retailers and continued declines of the Company’s manage-for-cash portfolio.International OTC Healthcare: Segment fiscal second quarter 2020 revenues totaled $24.2 million, compared to $23.4 million reported in the prior year comparable period. Revenues versus the prior year second quarter benefitted from consumption growth and the timing of distributor orders and shipments, partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency of approximately $1 million.For the first six months of the current fiscal year, reported revenues for the International OTC Healthcare segment were $45.6 million versus the prior year’s comparable period’s revenues of $42.8 million, attributable to consumption and shipment growth in the Asia-Pacific region, including the Company’s brand portfolio in Australia and Asia-Pacific. Growth was partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates of approximately $2 million.Household Cleaning: As previously announced, the Company sold its Household Cleaning segment on July 2, 2018 and used net proceeds from the divestiture to pay down debt. For the first quarter of fiscal 2019, the Household Cleaning segment generated $19.8 million in revenues, with no reported revenue in subsequent quarters.Commentary and Outlook for Fiscal 2020Ron Lombardi, CEO, stated, “Midway through fiscal 2020, we are pleased with our performance which has tracked to our expectations and gives us confidence in our financial outlook for the year. Our consumption trends remain healthy, and importantly include market share gains for the majority of the Company’s core brands, which are driven by our invest-for-growth strategy. In addition, as we previously discussed in our Q1 earnings release, we have commenced the transition to a new third-party logistics provider and location and, although early in this process, it is tracking to our expectations for both costs and timing.”Mr. Lombardi continued, “For full-year fiscal 2020 we continue to expect organic revenue to be approximately flat versus the year ago, with reported revenues down slightly from our prior outlook due to unfavorable foreign currency. Our stable business profit outlook for fiscal 2020 enables a disciplined capital allocation approach, in which we still anticipate our primary use of cash being debt reduction. We continue to benefit from a diverse portfolio of leading brands and remain confident in our long-term growth prospects,” Mr. Lombardi concluded.(1) Revenue outlook includes estimated unfavorable foreign currency for the fiscal year* See the “About Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of this report for further presentation information.Fiscal Q2 2020 Conference Call, Accompanying Slide Presentation and Replay

We use these NGFMs internally, along with GAAP information, in evaluating our operating performance and in making financial and operational decisions. We believe that the presentation of these NGFMs provides investors with greater transparency, and provides a more complete understanding of our business than could be obtained absent these disclosures, because the supplemental data relating to our financial condition and results of operations provides additional ways to view our operation when considered with both our GAAP results and the reconciliations below.
