CEO Perspective
"Adjusted EBITDA growth was solid at 6.0% for the third quarter, and we
continued to expand gross profit dollars per case," said Chairman and
CEO Pietro Satriano. "We also delivered organic independent restaurant
case volume growth of 3.1% for the quarter, an improvement over the
first half of the year. Our initiatives to improve customer service
levels are showing early positive results, and we expect this momentum
to continue to accelerate total case growth as we finish the year."
Third Quarter 2018 Results
Total case volume decreased 0.8% from the prior year, with organic case
volume declining 1.0%. Independent restaurant case volume increased
3.3%, of which 3.1% was organic growth. The decrease in total case
volume was primarily driven by the previously discussed exits of select
chain customers.
Net sales of $6.2 billion for the quarter decreased 0.8% from the prior
year, primarily due to the decrease in case volume.
Gross profit of $1.1 billion increased $10 million, or 0.9%, from the
prior year, driven by margin expansion initiatives, partially offset by
the adverse year-over-year change in the last-in, first-out (LIFO)
reserve and a decline in case volume. Gross profit as a percentage of
Net sales was 18.0%. Adjusted Gross profit was $1.1 billion, a 2.2%
increase from the prior year, driven by margin expansion initiatives,
partially offset by a decline in case volume. Adjusted Gross profit as a
percentage of Net sales was 17.9%.
Operating expenses were $929 million, an increase of 2.2% from the prior
year. The increase was driven by higher fuel and acquisition-related
costs, partially offset by the positive impact of expense control
initiatives. Adjusted Operating expenses for the quarter were $819
million, a 1.5% increase from the prior year, primarily driven by higher
fuel and wage costs.
Income before income taxes was $141 million, a $6 million decrease from
the prior year.
Net income for the quarter was $114 million, up $18 million from $96
million in the prior year as a result of the Gross profit and Operating
expense factors discussed above and a lower federal income tax rate.
Adjusted EBITDA of $283 million increased $16 million, or 6.0%, compared
to the prior year. Diluted EPS was $0.52 and Adjusted Diluted EPS was
$0.55.
Nine Month 2018 Results
Total case volume decreased 1.3% from the prior year, with organic case
volume declining 1.9%. Independent restaurant case volume increased
3.7%, of which 2.9% was organic growth. The decrease in total case
volume was driven primarily by the previously discussed exits of select
chain customers. Sales from acquisitions completed during the last four
fiscal quarters increased Net sales by approximately 0.8%.
Gross profit of $3.2 billion increased $70 million, or 2.2%, from the
prior year, driven by margin expansion initiatives, acquisitions and a
year-over-year gain in the LIFO reserve. Gross profit as a percentage of
Net sales was 17.7%. Adjusted Gross profit was $3.2 billion, a 1.7%
increase from the prior year, driven by margin expansion initiatives and
acquisitions. Adjusted Gross profit as a percentage of Net sales was
17.7%.
Operating expenses were $2.7 billion, a decrease of 0.9% from the prior
year. Operating expenses benefited from lower amortization expense
resulting from the full amortization of an intangible asset, partially
offset by higher fuel and wage costs. Adjusted Operating expenses were
$2.4 billion, a 1.0% increase from the prior year, primarily driven by
higher fuel and wage costs.
Income before income taxes was $364 million, a $98 million increase from
the prior year.
Net income through the first nine months of fiscal 2018 was $307
million, up $119 million from $188 million in the prior year as a result
of the Gross profit and Operating expense factors discussed above and a
lower federal income tax rate. Adjusted EBITDA of $806 million increased
$38 million, or 4.9% compared to the prior year. Diluted EPS was $1.41
and Adjusted Diluted EPS was $1.47.
Cash Flow and Capital Transactions
Net cash provided by operating activities for the first nine months of
fiscal 2018 was $444 million, net of a combined $95 million representing
an increase in cash income taxes and an incremental pension
contribution. In the first nine months of fiscal 2017, the company paid
minimal cash income taxes. As a result of the increase in cash income
taxes and the incremental pension contribution, Net cash provided by
operating activities decreased $62 million from the prior year. Cash
capital expenditures for the first nine months of fiscal 2018 totaled
$168 million, an increase of $5 million from the prior year, due to an
increase in capital spending for buildings and equipment.
Net Debt at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2018 was $3.4
billion, a decrease of $215 million versus the end of fiscal 2017. The
ratio of Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA was 3.1x at the end of the third
quarter of fiscal 2018, down from 3.4x at the end of fiscal 2017.
Outlook for Fiscal Year 2018
For fiscal year 2018, the company now expects total case volume to be
down approximately 1%, Net sales to be approximately flat to down 1%,
Adjusted Gross profit dollar growth of approximately 2%, Adjusted EBITDA
growth of approximately 5% and Adjusted Diluted EPS of approximately
$2.03-$2.08. The company's adjusted effective income tax rate is
expected to be approximately 25%, with a cash income tax rate of
approximately 16%-18%. All other fiscal year 2018 guidance numbers
announced on July 30, 2018 remain unchanged.

Forward-Looking Statements
Statements in this press release which are not historical in nature are
“forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal
securities laws. 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,” “goal,” or similar expressions 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: cost inflation/deflation and
commodity volatility; competition; reliance on third-party suppliers;
interruption of product supply or increases in product costs; our
substantial indebtedness and restrictions placed upon us under our debt
agreements; potential interest rate increases; customer retention and
changes in our relationships with group purchasing organizations; our
ability to achieve increased sales to independent restaurants;
successful consummation and integration of acquisitions; realization of
the expected benefits from our cost savings initiatives; fuel shortages
or volatility in fuel costs; industry and general economic factors
affecting consumer confidence and buying habits; changes in consumer
eating habits and preferences; product liability claims; our reputation
in the industry; labor relations and continued access to qualified
labor; pricing and cost structures; environmental, occupational health
and safety, and food safety compliance; government laws and regulations,
and potential changes in existing laws or regulations; technology
disruptions and our ability to implement new technologies; cybersecurity
incidents; management of retirement benefits and pension liabilities;
business disruptions caused by extreme weather conditions; litigation
risk; adequate protection of our brand/trade names; and risks associated
with intellectual property including potential infringement.
For a detailed discussion of these risks and uncertainties, see the
section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended December 30, 2017, which was filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2018. 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.
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 income and Adjusted Diluted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures
regarding our operational performance. 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 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 noted in our debt
agreements.
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 income, plus Interest
expense-net, Income tax (benefit)/provision, and Depreciation and
amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA adjusted for 1) Restructuring
charges and Tangible 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, and charges as
specified in our debt agreements.
We use Net Debt 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 income 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,
amortization, interest expense, and Income taxes on a consistent basis
from period to period. Adjusted Net income is Net income excluding such
items as Restructuring benefits and charges, tangible 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. We believe that
Adjusted Net income 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 are frequently 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 our
debt agreements. 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 income 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. We have not, however, provided a
reconciliation of our full fiscal year 2018 Adjusted EBITDA or Adjusted
Diluted EPS outlook because we are not able to accurately estimate all
the adjustments on a forward-looking basis and such items could have a
significant impact on our GAAP financial results as a result of their
variability.

permanent differences and valuation allowances.

pre-tax items excluded from Adjusted Net income 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 is
computed using a corporate tax rate after considering the impact of
permanent differences and valuation allowances.
