-
Record first quarter sales of $596.0 million vs. $552.1 million in
prior year (8.0% growth)

First quarter diluted EPS of $0.26 vs. $0.30 in prior year;
reflecting continued investments for growth

Two acquisitions with six branches completed in first quarter 2015
HERNDON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ: BECN) announced
results today for its first quarter ended December 31, 2014 of the
fiscal year ending September 30, 2015 ("Fiscal 2015").
Paul Isabella, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer,
stated: "Fiscal 2015 is off to a solid start, as we drove record sales.
We are particularly pleased with the growth of our residential product
line which was up 11.2% over the prior year, aided by the 26 new
branches opened in the prior fiscal year. Complementary sales were also
a bright spot in the quarter, up 18.5%. The sales gains in these two
particular product lines as well as stronger warehouse sales led to
higher gross margins over prior year and over prior quarter. The
combination of sales and margin growth led to EPS that was in line with
our expectations and positions us well as we move through the second
quarter and the balance of the year. Acquisition activity remains
robust, as we added both Applicators Sales and Services in New England
and Wholesale Roofing Supply in Texas during the quarter. Increases in
operating costs were primarily a result of our continued investment in
our growth strategy through acquisitions and new branches. Looking
forward, we are confident that the recent acquisitions combined with our
new locations will continue to fuel our top line growth and provide
leverage to our cost structure."
Total sales increased 8.0% to a first quarter record $596.0 million in
2015, from $552.1 million in 2014. On an overall consolidated basis,
residential roofing product sales increased 11.2%, non-residential
roofing product sales increased 0.2%, and complementary product sales
increased 18.5% over the prior year. During the first quarter, the
Company completed two acquisitions adding six new branches which drove
$19.7 million of sales in the quarter. Sales from greenfield branches
opened in fiscal 2014 totaled $23.0 million. The first quarters of 2015
and 2014 both had the same number of business days.
Net income for the first quarter was $12.9 million, compared to $15.0
million in 2014. First quarter diluted net income per share was $0.26,
compared to $0.30 in 2014. Net income for the quarter was favorably
impacted by gross margins which improved by 10 bps over the prior year,
and unfavorably impacted by increased operating expenses which were
primarily driven by the incremental costs associated with the 26
greenfields opened in fiscal 2014.
Cash flow from operations was $40.2 million in 2015, compared to $54.2
million in 2014. This decrease in operating cash flows was primarily
impacted by changes in working capital and lower net income in the
current year. Cash on hand decreased by $33.1 million due primarily to
an increase in cash used for acquisition activities in 2015. As of
December 31, 2014, we had available borrowings under our revolving lines
of credit of $306.5 million.
