Buckeye’s First Quarter FY 2013 Results
Release Date: 10/23/2012 5:42:57 PM
1Q Sales down 15% versus year-ago quarter
Foley outage reduced 1Q EPS by $0.04; Sales by $17 million
Gross margin improved to 25.4% vs. 24.3% in 1Q-12
Adjusted 1Q EPS* of $0.62 compared to a record $0.74 in 1Q-FY12
MEMPHIS, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 23, 2012--
Buckeye Technologies Inc. (NYSE:BKI) today announced first quarter net
sales of $197 million and adjusted net income* of $24.6 million or $0.62
per share. Net sales for the quarter were down $35 million or 15%
compared to the year ago quarter, mainly due to lost sales resulting
from the June steam drum failure outage at our Foley facility and weaker
demand in some of our wood and cotton specialty fibers markets. The sale
of the Merfin Systems converting business in the third quarter of fiscal
2012 accounted for $5 million of the year over year reduction in net
sales.
Adjusted operating income of $39.0 million was down $4.4 million
compared to the year ago quarter on lower sales volumes, although gross
margin was very strong at 25.4% for the quarter compared to 24.3% in the
year ago quarter, driven by margin improvements at our cotton cellulose
and nonwovens plants. The June outage at our Foley mill had a negative
impact of $2.2 million on first quarter operating income and $0.04 on
EPS. Selling, general and administrative (SRA) expenses of $13.2 million
were up $0.8 million year over year due to growth initiative consulting
and legal fees incurred during the quarter.
Adjusted net income* of $24.6 million, or $0.62 per share, excludes net
income of $5.5 million or $0.14 per share relating to the cellulosic
biofuel credit and after-tax restructuring charges of $0.6 million or
$0.02 per share. Adjusted net income* was down $5.3 million or $0.12 per
share compared to the prior year period’s $29.9 million or $0.74 per
share, which excluded net income of $11.2 million or $0.28 per share
relating to the cellulosic biofuel credit. The year over year reduction
in adjusted net income was driven by the drop in adjusted operating
income mentioned above as well as by a higher effective tax rate.
Comparing the first quarter of fiscal year 2013 to the fourth quarter of
fiscal 2012, sales were down $28 million or 12%. This was mainly due to
a $27 million reduction in sales from the Foley specialty wood fibers
facility, as shipments were impacted by the June outage and demand
softness in some markets. Adjusted operating income was down $1.3
million due to lower shipment volume and unfavorable mix at Foley, and
higher SRA expenses. These were partly offset by higher operating income
from our Memphis specialty cotton fibers plant and our Nonwovens
segment. The net impact of the June outage was $1.9 million less in Q1
than in Q4. Adjusted EPS* of $0.62 was down $0.04 versus the fourth
quarter due to lower adjusted operating income and a higher effective
tax rate.
Free cash flow* was negative $21 million for the quarter and long-term
debt increased by $23 million to $82 million, as the Company repaid $28
million of alternative fuel mixture credits which will be traded for
higher value cellulosic biofuel credits. We currently expect to realize
about $40 to $45 million in positive cash flow over the next three
quarters relating to the cellulosic biofuel credit. Capital spending
continues to be at a high level as Buckeye continues work on a couple of
large high return projects. At the end of the quarter our cash and short
term investments stood at $48 million. Inventories were up $25 million
during the quarter, with about half of that coming from planned
restocking after the June outage at Foley and the other half due to
weaker demand in some markets. Share repurchases were very limited in
the first quarter, but have picked up again in October, as we have
repurchased about 290,000 shares for $8.9 million in October through
today.
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer John B. Crowe said, “Our first
quarter fiscal 2013 financial results came in as we expected, except
that the impact of the June outage at Foley on the quarter was less than
expected. We are experiencing some weaker conditions in a few of the
specialty fibers markets, namely in tire cord, auto filtration and fluff
pulp. We are seeing positive signs as well, though, in the LCD/LED
markets for our cotton specialty fibers, where we see growth returning
in 2013, and in nonwovens, where our shipment volume is up year over
year. We were pleased to see our gross margin improve to above 25% in
the quarter. During the quarter, we made good progress on our Specialty
Expansion Project and the Oxygen Delignification Project at our Florida
wood fibers facility. Both are important projects and are expected to
come on-line in April and July 2013 respectively, and will be key
contributors for revenue growth and cost reduction. In our Nonwovens
business, we continue to work toward transitioning the supply of our
current customers from our Delta facility to our other two Nonwovens
facilities following the Delta closure, which remains on schedule for
December 2012.”
Mr. Crowe went on to say, “While the headwinds we forecasted in August
did arrive, we are committed to disciplined execution of our strategy.
With continued strong cash flow and a strong balance sheet, we are
well-positioned to continue to provide shareholder value and to meet the
challenges of a sluggish economy over the next couple of quarters.”

Loss from Discontinued Operations
*As a result of the disposition of our Americana operations in Q4
2012 and resulting end to our continuing involvement with the inclusion
of the waste water treatment facilities in the assets that were sold, we
believe the results of the operations for this business, including the
loss recognized from the sale and less applicable income taxes
(benefit), should be reported in discontinued operations in our
consolidated income statement. The table below shows the detail behind
the loss from discontinued operations for each period reported in the
press release financial statements.

We calculate EBITDA as earnings before cumulative effect of change
in accounting plus interest expense, income taxes and depreciation
and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA further adjusts EBITDA by adding
back the following items: asset impairment charges, goodwill
impairment, restructuring charges incurred since the inception of
the current credit facility, non-cash charges and other (gains)
losses and deducting any non-cash expense associated with
alternative fuel mixture credits. You should not consider adjusted
EBITDA to be an alternative measure of our net income, as an
indicator of operating performance; or our cash flow, as an
indicator of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA corresponds with the
definition contained in our US revolving credit facility,
established on October 22, 2010, and it provides useful information
concerning our ability to comply with debt covenants. Although we
believe adjusted EBITDA enhances your understanding of our financial
condition, this measure, when viewed individually, is not a better
indicator of any trend as compared to other measures (e.g., net
sales, net earnings, net cash flows, etc.). Prior period amounts
have been adjusted to conform to the definition contained in our new
credit facility.
