ROSEMONT, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- US Foods Holding Corp. (NYSE: USFD),one of the largest foodservice distributors in the United States, today announced results for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2020. The fourth quarter of fiscal year 2020 included 14 weeks compared to 13 weeks for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2019, and the full fiscal year 2020 included 53 weeks compared to 52 weeks in the full fiscal year 2019. Certain financial results in this press release have been presented excluding the "extra week" in the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2020 in an effort to provide comparable results on a year-over-year basis. Organic financial results exclude contributions from Smart Foodservice, which was acquired on April 24, 2020. For the Food Group, which was acquired on Sept. 13, 2019, organic financial results include contributions for the Sept. 14, 2020, through Jan. 2, 2021, time period only.
Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2020 Highlights
Fiscal Year 2020 Highlights
CEO Perspective
“Our industry, our customers and our company faced many challenges in 2020 from the spread of COVID-19,” said Chairman and CEO Pietro Satriano. “We took quick and decisive action in the first half of 2020 to ensure the safety of our associates, support our customers, strengthen liquidity and reduce our operating costs. Net sales and Adjusted EBITDA improved in the second half of 2020; a result of industry rebounds, market share gains and a continued focus on operational efficiencies. While the timing of the recovery remains uncertain, we remain confident in the resiliency of the industry and believe that the actions we have taken in 2020 have positioned the company well for future growth."
Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2020 Results
Total case volume decreased 10.2% from the prior year, while total organic case volume decreased 15.4%. Independent restaurant case volume decreased 6.0% from the prior year, while organic independent restaurant case volume decreased 13.1%. Net sales of $6.1 billion for the quarter decreased 11.5% from the prior year. Increases in the number of COVID-19 cases and the implementation of additional restrictions on in-person dining in many markets resulted in a slowdown in total case volume during the last six weeks of the quarter. Smart Foodservice contributed $275 million to Net sales in the fourth quarter.
Gross profit of $1.0 billion decreased $229 million, or 18.5%, from the prior year, primarily as a result of the negative impact of COVID-19 on case volume, changes to our customer mix, higher logistics costs and an unfavorable year-over-year LIFO adjustment. These factors were partially offset by contributions from Smart Foodservice, which was not owned by the company in the prior year period. Gross profit as a percentage of Net sales was 16.4%. Adjusted Gross profit was $1.0 billion, a 17.0% decrease from the prior year, driven by the negative impact of COVID-19 on case volume, changes to our customer mix and higher logistics costs. These factors were partially offset by contributions from Smart Foodservice. Adjusted Gross profit as a percentage of Net sales was 16.8%.
Operating expenses of $978 million decreased $73 million, or 6.9% from the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to actions put into place to reduce operating costs as a result of lower case volume and an $18 million reduction in the reserve for uncollectible accounts, which were partially offset by operating expenses for Smart Foodservice. Operating expenses as a percent of Net sales were 15.9%. Adjusted Operating expenses for the quarter were $865 million, a decrease of $48 million, or 5.3% from the prior year, primarily due to actions put in place to reduce operating costs as a result of lower case volume, which were partially offset by operating expenses for Smart Foodservice. Adjusted Operating expenses as a percent of Net sales were 14.1%.
Net loss available to common shareholders was $23 million, a decrease of $115 million compared to the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA was $174 million, a decrease of $161 million, or 48.1%, compared to the prior year. Diluted EPS loss was $0.11; Adjusted Diluted EPS was $0.05.
Fiscal Year 2020 Results
Total case volume decreased 11.0% from the prior year, while total organic case volume decreased 21.3%. Independent restaurant case volume decreased 11.2%, while organic independent restaurant case volume decreased 20.8%. Net sales of $22.9 billion decreased 11.8% from the prior year. Total case volume and Net sales results for fiscal year 2020 were negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and measures implemented to mitigate its spread. The Food Group and Smart Foodservice acquisitions contributed an aggregate of $3.1 billion to Net sales in fiscal year 2020.
Gross profit of $3.7 billion decreased $868 million, or 18.9%, from the prior year, primarily as a result of the negative impact of COVID-19 on case volume, changes to our customer mix, higher logistics costs and an unfavorable year-over-year LIFO adjustment. These factors were partially offset by contributions from Food Group and Smart Foodservice. Gross profit as a percentage of Net sales was 16.3%. Adjusted Gross profit was $3.8 billion, a 17.7% decrease from the prior year, driven by the negative impact of COVID-19 on case volume, changes to our customer mix and higher logistics costs. Adjusted Gross profit as a percentage of Net sales was 16.6%.
Operating expenses of $3.8 billion decreased $92 million, or 2.4% from the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to actions put in place to reduce operating costs as a result of lower case volume, which were partially offset by a $47 million net increase in the reserve for uncollectible accounts due to COVID-19 and operating expenses for the Food Group and Smart Foodservice acquisitions. Operating expenses as a percent of Net sales were 16.6%. Adjusted Operating expenses were $3.2 billion, a decrease of $256 million, or 7.5% from the prior year, primarily due to actions put in place to reduce operating costs as a result of lower case volume, which were partially offset by operating expenses for the Food Group and Smart Foodservice acquisitions. Adjusted Operating expenses as a percent of Net sales were 13.8%.
Net loss available to common shareholders was $254 million, a decrease of $639 million compared to the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA was $648 million, a decrease of $546 million, or 45.7% compared to the prior year. Diluted EPS loss was $1.15; Adjusted Diluted EPS was $0.09.
Cash Flow and Capital Transactions
Net cash provided by operating activities for fiscal 2020 was $413 million, a decrease of $347 million from the prior year primarily driven by lower case volume due to COVID-19, which was partially offset by the company's reduced working capital requirements. Cash capital expenditures for fiscal 2020 totaled $189 million, compared to $258 million in the prior year, as the company pared back on capital projects due to COVID-19.
Total Debt at the end of fiscal year 2020 was $5.7 billion, an increase of $1.0 billion versus the end of fiscal 2019. The increase was a result of additional indebtedness incurred to finance the Smart Foodservice acquisition and to strengthen the company's liquidity position in connection with the rapid onset of COVID-19. Net Debt at the end of fiscal year 2020 was $4.9 billion, an increase of $282 million versus the end of fiscal 2019. The ratio of Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA was 7.6x at the end of fiscal 2021, up from 3.9x at the end of fiscal 2019 primarily as a result of lower Adjusted EBITDA as discussed above.
Outlook for Fiscal Year 2021
Due to the continued uncertainty associated with COVID-19 and the timing of a recovery, the company is not providing financial guidance for fiscal 2021.

These statements often include words such as “believe,” “expect,” “project,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “outlook,” “estimate,” “target,” “seek,” “will,” “may,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “forecast,” “mission,” “strive,” “more,” “goal,” or similar expressions (although not all forward-looking statements may contain those words) and are based upon various assumptions and our experience in the industry, as well as historical trends, current conditions, and expected future developments. However, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results and there are a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements, including, among others: any declines in the consumption of food prepared away from home; the extent and duration of the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on us and our customers; cost inflation/deflation and commodity volatility; competition; reliance on third party suppliers and interruption of product supply or increases in product costs; risks related to our indebtedness, including our substantial amount of debt, our ability to incur substantially more debt, our potential inability to generate sufficient cash flows to service our debt and increases in our interest rates; restrictions and limitations placed on us by our agreements and instruments governing our debt; changes in our relationships with customers and group purchasing organizations; our ability to increase or maintain the highest margin portions of our business; effective integration of acquired businesses; achievement of expected benefits from cost savings initiatives; increases in fuel costs; economic factors affecting consumer confidence and discretionary spending; changes in consumer eating habits; our reputation in the industry; labor relations and costs and continued access to qualified and diverse labor; cost and pricing structures; changes in tax laws and regulations and resolution of tax disputes; environmental, health and safety and other governmental regulation, including actions taken by national, state and local governments to contain the COVID-19 pandemic, such as travel restrictions or bans, social distancing requirements, and required closures of non-essential businesses; product recalls and product liability claims; adverse judgments or settlements resulting from litigation; disruption of existing technologies and implementation of new technologies; cybersecurity incidents and other technology disruptions; management of retirement benefits and pension obligations; extreme weather conditions, natural disasters and other catastrophic events, including pandemics and the rapid spread of contagious illnesses; and risks associated with intellectual property, including potential infringement.
For a detailed discussion of these risks, uncertainties and other factors, see the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2019, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 13, 2020, and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 26, 2020, which was filed with the SEC on November 2, 2020. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release speak only as of the date of this press release. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, except as may be required by law.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We report our financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). However, Adjusted Gross profit, Adjusted Operating expenses, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Net Debt, Adjusted Net (loss) income available to common shareholders and Adjusted Diluted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures regarding our operational performance and liquidity. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude the impact of certain items and, therefore, have not been calculated in accordance with GAAP.
We use Adjusted Gross profit and Adjusted Operating expenses as supplemental measures to GAAP measures to focus on period-over-period changes in our business and believe this information is helpful to investors. Adjusted Gross profit is Gross profit adjusted to remove the impact of the LIFO inventory reserve changes. Adjusted Operating expenses are Operating expenses adjusted to exclude amounts that we do not consider part of our core operating results when assessing our performance, as well other items specified in the agreements governing our indebtedness.
We believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide meaningful supplemental information about our operating performance because they exclude amounts that we do not consider part of our core operating results when assessing our performance. EBITDA is Net (loss) income, plus Interest expense-net, Income tax (benefit) provision, and Depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA adjusted for (1) Restructuring costs and asset impairments; (2) Share-based compensation expense; (3) the non-cash impact of LIFO reserve adjustments; (4) Business transformation costs; and (5) other gains, losses or charges as specified in the agreements governing our indebtedness.
We use Net Debt as a supplemental measure to GAAP measures to review the liquidity of our operations. Net Debt is defined as total debt net of total Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash remaining on the balance sheet as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter. We believe that Net Debt is a useful financial metric to assess our ability to pursue business opportunities and investments. Net Debt is not a measure of our liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to Cash Flows Provided by Operations or Cash Flows Used in Financing Activities.
We believe that Adjusted Net (loss) income available to common shareholders is a useful measure of operating performance for both management and investors because it excludes items that are not reflective of our core operating performance and provides an additional view of our operating performance including depreciation, interest expense, and Income taxes on a consistent basis from period to period. Adjusted Net (loss) income available to common shareholders is Net (loss) income excluding such items as Restructuring benefits and costs, asset impairments, Share-based compensation expense, the non-cash impacts of LIFO reserve adjustments, Business transformation costs (costs associated with the redesign of systems and processes), and other items, and adjusted for the tax effect of the exclusions and discrete tax items. Prior period amounts have been revised to conform with the current year presentation. We believe that Adjusted Net (loss) income available to common shareholders may be used by investors, analysts, and other interested parties to facilitate period-over-period comparisons and provides additional clarity as to how factors and trends impact our operating performance.
We use Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share, which is calculated by adjusting the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, Diluted Earnings per Share, by excluding the same items excluded in our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA to the extent that each such item was included in the applicable GAAP financial measure. We believe the presentation of Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share is useful to investors because the measurement excludes amounts that we do not consider part of our core operating results when assessing our performance. We also believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share is useful to investors because these metrics may be used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of the operating performance of companies in our industry.
Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures (a) to evaluate our historical and prospective financial performance as well as our performance relative to our competitors as they assist in highlighting trends, (b) to set internal sales targets and spending budgets, (c) to measure operational profitability and the accuracy of forecasting, (d) to assess financial discipline over operational expenditures, and (e) as an important factor in determining variable compensation for management and employees. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are also used in connection with certain covenants and restricted activities under the agreements governing our indebtedness. We also believe these and similar non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry.
We caution readers that our definitions of Adjusted Gross profit, Adjusted Operating expenses, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Net Debt, Adjusted Net (loss) income available to common shareholders and Adjusted Diluted EPS may not be calculated in the same manner as similar measures used by other companies. Definitions and reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the schedules attached to this press release.

Includes the increase in reserve for doubtful accounts expense reflecting the collection risk associated with our customer base as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. During the 14 weeks ended January 2, 2021, we reversed $18 million of reserve for doubtful accounts expense, due to better than anticipated collections of accounts receivable that originated prior to the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic in mid-March 2020.

Represents our income tax provision (benefit) adjusted for the tax effect of pre-tax items excluded from Adjusted Net income available to common shareholders and the removal of applicable discrete tax items. Applicable discrete tax items include changes in tax laws or rates, changes related to prior year unrecognized tax benefits, discrete changes in valuation allowances, and excess tax benefits associated with share-based compensation. The tax effect of pre-tax items excluded from Adjusted net income available to common shareholders is computed using a statutory tax rate after taking into account the impact of permanent differences and valuation allowances.

Consists primarily of severance and related costs, organizational realignment costs and asset impairment charges.
Includes the increase in reserve for doubtful accounts expense reflecting the collection risk associated with our customer base as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. For the 53 weeks ended January 2, 2021 we had a total of $67 million of reserve for doubtful accounts expense. Management estimates that approximately $47 million of this reserve for doubtful accounts expense was attributable to the negative impact the COVID-19 pandemic had on many of our customers operations during the 53 weeks ended January 2, 2021. This amount was derived by subtracting what management believes to be a reasonable estimate of what reserve for doubtful accounts expense would have been for the 53 week period ended January 2, 2021 had there been no COVID-19 outbreak from actual reserve for doubtful accounts expense for the relevant period.
Includes: (i) Food Group acquisition and integration related costs of $24 million and $52 million for the 53 weeks ended January 2, 2021 and the 52 weeks ended December 28, 2019, respectively; (ii) Smart Foodservice acquisition and integration related costs of $21 million for the 53 weeks ended January 2, 2021; and (iii) other gains, losses or costs that we are permitted to addback for purposes of calculating Adjusted EBITDA under certain agreements governing our indebtedness.
