TSX: CBY

TORONTO, Aug. 1, 2012 /CNW/ - Canada Bread Company, Limited (TSX: CBY) today reported its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2012.  Second quarter highlights include:

  • Adjusted Operating Earnings(1) for the second quarter were $37.4 million compared to $35.1 million last year, an increase of 7%
  • Net earnings for the quarter were $26.8 million compared to $14.9 million last year
  • Adjusted EPS(2) for the quarter was $1.09, up from $0.97 in the second quarter of 2011

"Our results improved from last year and significantly from a weak first quarter, reflecting some improvement in volume and the benefit of price increases in our Frozen Bakery segment to manage higher costs," said Richard Lan, President and CEO. "While the bread category continues to be soft in both North America and the U.K., we will continue to manage this through proactive sales strategies, product innovation and cost reduction."

(1): Adjusted Operating Earnings, a non-IFRS measure, is defined as earnings from operations before restructuring and other related costs and other income (expense).

(2): Adjusted Earnings per Share ("Adjusted EPS"), a non-IFRS measure, is defined as basic earnings per share adjusted for the impact of restructuring and other related costs, net of tax.

Please refer to the section entitled Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Financial Measures in this news release.

Financial Overview

Sales for the second quarter were $404.9 million compared to $406.2 million last year. After adjusting for the closure of a bakery and related exit of unprofitable categories in the U.K. and currency translation on sales in the U.S. and U.K., sales increased 1%. The increase was mainly due to stronger volumes and selling prices in the North American frozen bakery operations.

Adjusted Operating Earnings for the second quarter of $37.4 million were 7% higher compared to earnings of $35.1 million last year as improved pricing, sales mix, and volumes in the Frozen Bakery segment were partially offset by higher inflationary costs and spending in the Fresh Bakery segment, largely attributable to the fresh pasta business.

Net earnings in the quarter were $26.8 million ($1.05 basic earnings per share) compared to $14.9 million ($0.59 basic earnings per share) last year and included $1.2 million in pre-tax restructuring costs (2011: $12.5 million). Adjusted earnings per share for the second quarter were $1.09 compared to $0.97 last year.

Business Segment Review

The following table summarizes sales by business segment:

           
(Unaudited)              Second Quarter Year-to-Date
($ thousands)     2012 2011 2012 2011
Fresh Bakery     $279,164 $282,364 $527,347 $537,449
Frozen Bakery     125,697 123,881 247,758 240,556
Total Sales     $404,861 $406,245 $775,105 $778,005
             

The following table summarized Adjusted Operating Earnings by business segment:

         
(Unaudited) Second Quarter Year-to-Date
($ thousands) 2012 2011 2012 2011
Fresh Bakery $30,507 $33,211 $37,775 $51,196
Frozen Bakery 6,922 1,892 8,415 631
Adjusted Operating Earnings $37,429 $35,103 $46,190 $51,827
         

Fresh Bakery

Includes fresh bakery products, including breads, rolls, bagels, sweet goods, and fresh pasta and sauces sold to retail, foodservice and convenience channels. It includes national brands such as Dempster's® and Olivieri® and many leading regional brands.

Fresh Bakery sales for the second quarter of $279.2 million were 1% lower than sales of $282.4 million last year, primarily due to increased feature pricing activity in the fresh bakery business and lower volumes in the fresh pasta business. Volumes in the fresh bakery business were comparable to last year.

Adjusted Operating Earnings in the second quarter declined 8% to $30.5 million compared to $33.2 million last year. While results in the fresh bakery business were consistent with last year, there was a significant improvement from the first quarter of 2012 as a result of increased promotional and marketing activities and warm summer weather. However, an underlying decline in consumer demand continues to impact results. Included in results are $0.8 million in duplicative overhead costs related to the commissioning of a new fresh bakery in Hamilton, Ontario and which are expected to continue until early 2013. The Company expects the new bakery to be accretive to operating earnings commencing in 2013, with the closure of the third Toronto bakery and as volumes consolidate into the new Hamilton facility. Results from the fresh pasta business declined due to higher inflationary and operational costs, and increased advertising and promotional spending.

Frozen Bakery

Includes frozen bakery products, including frozen par-baked bakery products, specialty and artisan breads, and bagels sold to retail, foodservice and convenience channels in North America and the U.K. It includes national brands such as Tenderflake® and New York Bakery CoTM.

Frozen Bakery sales for the second quarter were $125.7 million compared to $123.9 million in 2011. After adjusting for the closure of a bakery and related exit of unprofitable categories in the U.K. and currency translation on sales in the U.S. and U.K., sales increased 5%. The sales increase was mainly due to stronger volumes and selling prices in the North American frozen bakery operations.

Adjusted Operating Earnings in Frozen Bakery for the second quarter of 2012 were $6.9 million compared to $1.9 million last year. Profitability continued to improve due to higher pricing and volumes in the North American frozen bakery operations, an improved sales mix in the U.K., and lower overhead costs resulting from the closure of the Walsall, U.K. bakery in the first quarter of 2012. These benefits were partially offset by higher inflationary costs.

Other Matters

On July 31, 2012, Canada Bread declared a dividend of $0.50 per share payable on October 1, 2012 to shareholders of record at the close of business on September 7, 2012.  Unless indicated otherwise by the Company in writing on or before the time the dividend is paid, this dividend will be considered an Eligible Dividend for the purposes of the "Enhanced Dividend Tax Credit System".

Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Financial Measures

The Company uses the following non-IFRS measures: Adjusted Operating Earnings and Adjusted EPS.  Management believes that these non-IFRS measures provide useful information to both Management and investors in measuring the financial performance of the Company for the reasons outlined below.  These measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other publicly traded companies and should not be construed as an alternative to other financial measures determined in accordance with IFRS.

Adjusted Operating Earnings

The following tables reconcile earnings from operations before restructuring and other related costs and other income (expense) to net earnings as reported under IFRS in the unaudited earnings for the three and six months ended, as indicated below.  Management believes that this is the most appropriate basis on which to evaluate operating results, as restructuring and other related costs and other income (expense) are not representative of operational results during the period.
