TORONTO, Oct. 31, 2012 /CNW/ - Canada Bread Company, Limited (TSX: CBY) today reported its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012.

  • Adjusted Operating Earnings(1) for the third quarter increased 7.8% to $34.2 million compared to $31.8 million last year
  • Net earnings for the quarter were $24.2 million compared to $30.3 million last year
  • Adjusted EPS(2) for the quarter was $0.96, compared to $1.24 in the third quarter of 2011 ($0.86 excluding a $9.8 million tax adjustment associated with a prior acquisition)

"Our earnings growth resulted from effective buying strategies and a strong positive shift in our North American frozen bakery business. We have a number of commercial and marketing initiatives underway to support growth in each of our businesses, and we expect to manage inflationary costs through responsible pricing," said Richard Lan, President and CEO.

(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

Canada Bread sales for the third quarter declined 3.8% to $401.5 million, compared to $417.2 million last year. After adjusting for the closure of a bakery in the U.K. and currency translation on sales in the U.S. and U.K., sales decreased 2.3%. This decrease was primarily related to lower volumes in the fresh bread business.

Adjusted Operating Earnings for the third quarter increased 7.8% to $34.2 million compared to $31.8 million last year, driven by higher earnings in the fresh bread business and the North American frozen bakery operations.

Net earnings in the quarter were $24.2 million ($0.95 basic earnings per share) compared to $30.3 million ($1.19 basic earnings per share) last year and included $0.2 million in pre-tax restructuring costs (2011: $1.6 million). Net earnings in the third quarter of 2011 also included $9.8 million ($0.38 per share) related to a tax adjustment associated with a prior acquisition.  Adjusted earnings per share for the third quarter were $0.96 compared to $1.24 last year.

The following table summarizes sales by business segment:        
                         
(Unaudited)     Third Quarter     Year-to-Date
($ thousands)     2012     2011     2012     2011
Fresh Bakery   $   277,709   $ 287,923   $ 805,056   $ 825,372
Frozen Bakery       123,785     129,248     371,543     369,804

The following table summarizes Adjusted Operating Earnings by business segment:
 
                         
(Unaudited)   Third Quarter   Year-to-Date
($ thousands)     2012     2011     2012     2011
Fresh Bakery   $   28,765   $ 29,198   $   66,540   $ 80,394
Frozen Bakery     5,469     2,565       13,884     3,196
Adjusted Operating Earnings   $   34,234   $ 31,763   $   80,424   $   83,590

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 third quarter declined 3.5% to $277.7 million from $287.9 million last year, primarily due to lower volumes in the fresh bread business.

Adjusted Operating Earnings in the third quarter were $28.8 million compared to $29.2 million last year, as improved earnings in the fresh bread business were offset by lower earnings in the fresh pasta business. Results benefited from positive hedging activities for raw materials during the quarter, although the business continues to experience inflationary costs and projected increases in flour and dairy costs that will require offsetting price increases. Volumes in the fresh bread business were consistent with the second quarter of 2012, but lower than last year, reflecting industry volume declines.

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 third quarter declined 4.2% to $123.8 million from $129.2 million in 2011. After adjusting for the closure of a bakery in the U.K. and currency translation on sales in the U.S. and U.K., sales increased 0.6%. Stronger volumes and selling prices in the North American frozen bakery operations were largely offset by lower volumes in the U.K. bakery business.

Adjusted Operating Earnings in Frozen Bakery for the third quarter of 2012 increased to $5.5 million from $2.6 million last year. The North American frozen bakery business benefited from higher pricing and increased sales volumes compared to last year. In the U.K., earnings were consistent with last year as improvements from cost reduction strategies, including the closure of a bakery in the first quarter, were offset by lower volumes and costs of commissioning new croissant capacity.

Other Matters

On October 30, 2012, the Company declared a dividend of $0.50 per share payable on January 2, 2013 to shareholders of record at the close of business on December 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 nine months ended, as indicated below.  Management believes that this basis is the most appropriate 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.

Forward-Looking Statements

This document contains, and the Company's oral and written public communications often contain, "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable securities laws.  These statements are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about the industries in which the Company operates and beliefs and assumptions made by the Management of the Company. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to objectives and goals, as well as statements with respect to beliefs, plans, objectives, expectations, anticipations, estimates and intentions. Specific forward-looking information in this document includes, but is not limited to, statements concerning expectations regarding actions to reduce costs and improve efficiencies, restore volumes and/or increase prices, timing of promotional investment, improving business trends, expected duplicative overhead costs incurred due to the concurrent operation of the new Hamilton fresh bakery and existing bakeries, expectations regarding the timing and amount of capital investments; expectations regarding the timing and cost of plant closures; the expected use of cash balances, source of funds for ongoing business requirements, capital investments and debt repayment, and expectations regarding sufficiency of the allowance for uncollectible accounts. Words such as "expect", "anticipate", "intend", "attempt", "may", "will", "plan", "believe", "seek", "estimate", and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking information. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve assumptions and risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict.

In particular, these statements are based on a variety of factors and assumptions that are discussed throughout this document.
