Adjusted EBITDA $74.9 $108.1
Adjusted EBITDA Margin 15.6% 18.9%
Adjusted Net Income $27.8 $56.3
Adjusted Diluted EPS $1.18 $2.42
  • Full year Net Sales decreased by approximately 16% compared to record net sales in 2019 due primarily to lower volumes driven by two consecutive seasons of below average snowfall, inconsistent class 4-6 chassis supply, and pandemic-related disruption.
  • The Company recorded a Net Loss of $86.6 million in 2020, compared to full year Net Income of $49.2 million in 2019, due to an impairment charge of $127.9 million related to the goodwill impairment that was recorded in the second quarter of 2020.
  • Adjusted Net Income for the year was $27.8 million, compared to $56.3 million in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA was $74.9 million, compared to $108.1 million in the prior year. Both decreases were primarily driven by lower volumes, partially offset by lower discretionary spending.
  • Interest expense increased to $20.2 million, compared to $16.8 million in the prior year due to non-cash mark-to-market and amortization adjustments on an interest rate swap not accounted for as a hedge and higher interest paid on a term loan from the increase in principal balance, slightly offset by lower short-term borrowing on our revolving line of credit.
  • The effective tax rate (benefit) was (12.4%), lower than 21.5% last year due to the impairment of nondeductible goodwill taken in the second quarter.

  • Net Sales for Work Truck Attachments were $252.8 million for the year, compared to $293.6 million in the prior year. The decrease was primarily driven by below average snowfall for the season ending in March 2020.
  • Adjusted EBITDA for the segment was $62.5 million, compared to $80.7 million during the prior year, lower as a result of the lower volumes.

  • Net Sales for Work Truck Solutions were $227.3 million, compared to $278.1 million in the prior year. The decline was primarily due to class 4-6 chassis supply constraints and pandemic related disruption. 
  • Adjusted EBITDA declined to $12.4 million from $27.4 million in the prior year due to the lower volumes, slightly offset by lower spending through our income protection plan.

Dividend & Liquidity

  • A quarterly cash dividend of $0.28 per share of the Company's common stock was declared on December 3, 2020, and paid on December 31, 2020, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 18, 2020.
  • In addition, the Company’s Board of Directors approved and declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.285 per share for the first quarter of 2021. The declared dividend will be paid on March 31, 2021 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 19, 2021.
  • During the quarter, the Company paid down $30 million in debt.
  • Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities for 2020 decreased to $53.4 million from $77.3 million during 2019. Free Cash Flow for full year 2020 decreased to $38.9 million from $65.8 million for full year 2019; the reduction was mainly driven by lower operating results.
  • Free Cash flow for the full year 2020 was $38.9 million, which well exceeded the dividend paid during 2020 of $25.9 million.

Outlook

McCormick noted, “We are confident we’ll exit the pandemic stronger than we entered it. 2021 will still present challenges, especially in the first half of the year, driven by a number of external factors. If the economic environment and pandemic conditions stabilize and continue to slowly improve, we feel confident we can improve upon our 2020 results and position ourselves to meet our long-term profitable growth objectives.”

The 2021 financial outlook is as follows:

  • Net Sales are expected to be between $505 million and $565 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA is predicted to range from $75 million to $100 million.
  • Adjusted Earnings Per Share are expected to be in the range of $1.20 per share to $2.00 per share.
  • The effective tax rate is expected to be approximately 25% to 26%.
  • The outlook assumes relatively stable economic conditions and pandemic restrictions, and that Company’s core markets will experience average snowfall levels.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains financial information calculated other than in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”).  The non-GAAP measures used in this press release are Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share, and Free Cash Flow.  The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors and other external users of its consolidated financial statements in evaluating the Company’s operating performance as compared to that of other companies.  Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the nearest comparable GAAP measures can be found immediately following the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in this press release.

Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, as further adjusted for certain charges consisting of unrelated legal and consulting fees, pension termination costs, stock-based compensation, certain purchase accounting expenses, impairment charges, expenses related to debt modifications, and incremental costs incurred related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Such COVID-19 related costs include increased expenses directly related to the pandemic, and do not include either production related overhead inefficiencies or lost or deferred sales. We believe these costs are out of the ordinary, unrelated to our business and not representative of our results. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA in evaluating the Company’s operating performance because it provides the Company and its investors with additional tools to compare its operating performance on a consistent basis by removing the impact of certain items that management believes do not directly reflect the Company’s core operations. The Company’s management also uses Adjusted EBITDA for planning purposes, including the preparation of its annual operating budget and financial projections, and to evaluate the Company’s ability to make certain payments, including dividends, in compliance with its senior credit facilities, which is determined based on a calculation of “Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA” that is substantially similar to Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share (calculated on a diluted basis) represents net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share (as defined by GAAP), excluding the impact of stock based compensation, pension termination costs, non-cash purchase accounting adjustments, impairment charges, expenses related to debt modifications, certain charges related to unrelated legal fees and consulting fees, incremental costs incurred related to the COVID-19 pandemic, and adjustments on derivatives not classified as hedges, net of their income tax impact. Such COVID-19 related costs include increased expenses directly related to the pandemic, and do not include either production related overhead inefficiencies or lost or deferred sales. We believe these costs are out of the ordinary, unrelated to our business and not representative of our results. Adjustments on derivatives not classified as hedges are non-cash and are related to overall financial market conditions; therefore, management believes such costs are unrelated to our business and are not representative of our results.  Management believes that Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share are useful in assessing the Company’s financial performance by eliminating expenses and income that are not reflective of the underlying business performance.

Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures.  Free Cash Flow should be evaluated in addition to, and not considered a substitute for, other financial measures such as Net Income (Loss) and Net Cash Provided By (Used in) Operating Activities.  We believe that free cash flow represents our ability to generate additional cash flow from our business operations.

With respect to the Company’s 2021 guidance, the Company is not able to provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP because it does not provide specific guidance for the various extraordinary, nonrecurring, or unusual charges and other certain items. These items have not yet occurred, are out of the Company’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. As a result, reconciliation of the non-GAAP guidance measures to GAAP is not available without unreasonable effort and the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.
