Spectrum Brands, Inc. (the Company) (NYSE: SPC) announced today third quarter net sales of $729.6 million and a net loss of $5.58 per share for the quarter ended June 29, 2008. Excluding certain items which management believes are not indicative of the Company�s on-going normalized operations, the Company generated adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.06, a non-GAAP number. These excluded items, net of tax, include: Goodwill and trade names impairment charges of $253.7 million, or $4.76 per share, in accordance with SFAS 142 and SFAS 144, primarily related to the Company�s Home & Garden and Global Pet Supply businesses; Net tax adjustments of $19.1 million, or $0.36 per share, to exclude the effect of certain adjustments made to the valuation allowance against net deferred taxes and other tax related items; Restructuring and related charges of $14.3 million, or $0.27 per share, primarily associated with the Company�s strategy to exit Ningbo Baowang, a battery manufacturing facility in China, and company-wide cost reduction initiatives; Professional fees of $2.9 million, or $0.05 per share, incurred in connection with the proposed sale of the Company�s Global Pet Supplies business; $0.25 per share as a result of using a diluted share count of 53.3 million average shares outstanding to calculate adjusted diluted earnings per share versus using a basic share count of 50.9 million average shares outstanding in order to calculate GAAP basic earnings per share. GAAP requires the use of the basic share count in the event of a net loss; and Other items netting to a benefit of $2.8 million, or $0.05 per share During the third quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company reported a net loss per fully diluted share of $0.15. Excluding restructuring and related charges of $0.36, an add back of $0.04 per share for depreciation and amortization that would have been recorded if the Home & Garden Business had been in continuing operations, and other non-cash adjustments netting an add back of $0.05 per share, the third quarter 2007 adjusted earnings per fully diluted share was $0.12. With strong top-line growth in all three business segments, the Company�s third quarter net sales of $729.6 million represented a 10.5 percent increase over the prior year, after excluding the Canadian division of the Home & Garden Business, which the Company sold in November 2007. Favorable foreign currency exchanges contributed $29.6 million. �I�m pleased with our strong sales growth for the quarter, which I believe reflects the strength of our new product offerings and marketing programs as well as a consumer shift towards value brands during this tough economic time,� said Kent Hussey, CEO of Spectrum Brands. The Company saw strong adjusted EBITDA growth, a non-GAAP measurement which the Company believes is a useful indicator of the operating health of the business and its trajectory, in both its Global Batteries & Personal Care and its Global Pet Supplies segments. These results were offset, however, by significant raw material input cost pressures in the Company�s Home & Garden Business segment. Consolidated adjusted EBITDA was $81.2 million as compared with $87.7 million in the third quarter of the prior year, a 7.4 percent decline driven by the unprecedented cost increases in the Company�s fertilizer operations within its Home & Garden Business segment. Gross profit and gross margin for the quarter were $261.4 million and 35.8 percent, respectively, versus $253.9 million and 38.5 percent for the same period last year. Within cost of sales, the Company incurred restructuring and related charges of approximately $13.9 million, negatively impacting this quarter�s margin by 190 basis points, primarily related to the Company�s strategy to exit the Ningbo battery manufacturing facility in China. During the third quarter of fiscal 2007, cost of sales included $4.1 million of restructuring and related charges. The remainder of the variance was primarily driven by extremely volatile commodity costs. The Company generated a third quarter operating loss from continuing operations of $259.8 million versus operating income of $45.6 million in the same period last year. The primary reasons for the decline were $303.3 million in goodwill and trade names impairments. Third Quarter Segment Results The Global Batteries and Personal Care segment reported net sales of $344.4 million compared with $307.0 million for the same period reported last year, an increase of 12.2 percent. Favorable foreign exchange benefited sales by $23.7 million with the remainder of the variance resulting from gains in market share in batteries and strong growth in sales of personal care products. Global battery sales, which benefited from favorable foreign exchange, were up 12.4 percent compared with the same period last year, primarily due to improved performance in North America for both alkaline and specialty batteries. North American battery sales were up 21.8 percent for the quarter from the same period last year as the Company regained market share and returned to its historical 11 percent share of dollars in the market. European battery sales increased 10.4 percent from the same period last year benefiting from favorable foreign exchange and sales increases in its branded alkaline and specialty batteries. Latin American battery sales generated year over year growth of 5.4 percent, benefiting from favorable foreign exchange and sales increases in alkaline batteries. Global sales of Remington branded products increased 16.3 percent during the quarter from the same period last year with double digit sales growth in its hair care products and single digit sales growth in shaving & grooming. The Global Batteries and Personal Care segment reported its 6th straight quarter of adjusted EBITDA year-over-year improvement, coming in at $37.9 million for the quarter. Segment profitability for this segment was $33.2 million for the quarter, up an impressive 21.0 percent over last year�s level. The profit improvement was primarily due to the cost savings generated from the 2007 global realignment initiatives and cost savings generated from more efficient operation of the Company�s manufacturing facilities. Global Pet Supplies net sales were $148.6 million, a 10.1 percent increase compared with the prior year. Companion animal product net sales grew 13.0 percent, while global aquatics net sales increased 8.7 percent from the prior year. North American companion animal sales were up 9.3 percent from the same period last year, offset by a decline of 2.3 percent in aquatics, which indicates a stabilization in the North American aquatics market following the anniversary of the removal of live fish from certain stores of a major retailer. Total pet sales in Europe and the Pacific Rim were up 28.9 percent and 25.6 percent, respectively, as a result of favorable currency, dynamic expansion in Eastern Europe and the roll out of companion animal products outside of North America as well as continuing strength in aquatics in Europe and Asia. Adjusted EBITDA for the Global Pet Supplies segment was $22.4 million for the quarter compared to $20.1 million last year, up 11.4 percent. Segment profitability for Global Pet Supplies for the quarter was $16.8 million compared to $14.4 million last year, up 16.7 percent over last year due to positive pricing impacts partially offset by a slightly negative foreign exchange impact. Spectrum�s Home & Garden Business segment�s net sales were $236.6 million, up 8.6 percent over last year, with growth in both units and dollars. The largest contributors to this growth were fertilizers and growing media, sales of which were up 16.7 percent from the same period last year. Additionally, the Company reported low single digit increases in sales of repellants and pesticides. With unprecedented commodity cost increases in the Home & Garden Business segment, adjusted EBITDA fell 29.8 percent to $29.4 million for the third quarter compared with $41.9 million last year. Similarly, also because of the significant increase in the cost of raw materials, segment profitability for the Home & Garden Business segment was $25.9 million for the quarter compared to $42.3 million last year. The Company has already begun implementing significant changes in this segment, including, among other initiatives, pricing actions and SKU reduction, in order to restore profitability in 2009. Corporate expenses were $12.4 million for the quarter, which included $4.5 million in professional fees associated with the terminated business segment sale process, as compared with $7.6 million in corporate expenses during the third quarter of last year. Interest expense was $57.1 million compared to $59.4 million in the same period last year. The Company recorded a tax benefit during the quarter of $34.3 million versus a tax benefit of $6.9 million in the same period last year. The benefit in the quarter is mainly the result of the reversal of the valuation allowance the Company had recorded against certain foreign tax assets. In addition, similar to the first two quarters of 2008, the Company recorded an expense in the quarter to increase its valuation allowance against its U.S. federal net deferred tax assets to reserve for the possibility that the net deferred tax assets will not be realized. As a result, fiscal 2008 operating losses in the U.S. no longer create U.S. tax benefits. This accounting treatment is not expected to have any impact on the Company�s ability to utilize net operating losses if and when the Company recognizes future taxable income within the U.S. The result of not recording a tax benefit in the U.S. combined with recording a tax provision on taxable income generated by foreign subsidiaries results in an effective tax rate significantly higher than that experienced in prior years. This increased tax rate has no cash impact on the Company. Webcast Information Spectrum Brands will hold a conference call at 5:00 p.m. EDT on August 7 to further discuss its third quarter results. The call will be accessible via webcast through the Company�s website, www.spectrumbrands.com, and will be archived online until August 21. Non-GAAP Measurements Within this release, including the tables attached hereto, reference is made to adjusted diluted earnings per share and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). See attached Table 3, �Reconciliation of Diluted Earnings Per Share to Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share,� for a complete reconciliation of diluted earnings per share on a GAAP basis to adjusted diluted earnings per share, and Table 4, �GAAP Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations to Adjusted EBITDA,� for a reconciliation of GAAP Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations to adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of fiscal 2008 and the third quarter of fiscal 2007 on a consolidated basis and for each of the Company�s business segments. In addition, the Company has posted reconciliations of GAAP Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations to Adjusted EBITDA for each other quarter since the start of the Company�s fiscal 2007 on its website at www.spectrumbrands.com. Adjusted EBITDA is a metric used by management and frequently used by the financial community which provides insight into an organization�s operating trends and facilitates comparisons between peer companies, since interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization can differ greatly between organizations as a result of differing capital structures and tax strategies. Adjusted EBITDA can also be a useful measure of a company�s ability to service debt and is one of the measures used for determining the Company�s debt covenant compliance. Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain items that are unusual in nature or not comparable from period to period. In addition, Spectrum Brands� management uses adjusted diluted earnings per share as one means of analyzing the Company�s current and future financial performance and identifying trends in its financial condition and results of operations. Management believes that adjusted diluted earnings per share is a useful measure for providing further insight into our operating performance because it eliminates the effects of certain items that are not comparable from one period to the next. Spectrum Brands provides this information to investors to assist in comparisons of past, present and future operating results and to assist in highlighting the results of on-going operations. While Spectrum Brands management believes that adjusted diluted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA are useful supplemental information, such adjusted results are not intended to replace the Company�s GAAP financial results and should be read in conjunction with those GAAP results.
