PHOENIX, November 30, 2022 – Leslie's, Inc. (“Leslie's”, “we”, “our” or “its”; NASDAQ: LESL), the largest and most trusted direct-to-consumer brand in the U.S. pool and spa care industry, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and Fiscal 2022.

The Company will host a meeting for investors and analysts today to review the drivers of its Fiscal 2022 performance, Fiscal 2023 guidance and the Company’s growth opportunities. Please refer to the “Investor Day Webcast” section below for details.

Mike Egeck, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are pleased to close out the year on a strong note with 16.3% sales growth, a 30.1% increase in net income, and a 21.3% increase in Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter. This performance was enabled by the outstanding work of our supply chain team driving strong DC performance in the quarter. For the full year, execution of our strategic growth initiatives resulted in record sales, gross profit and Adjusted EBITDA, as well as market share gains.

“Looking ahead, while we anticipate a challenging macro-economic backdrop for Fiscal 2023, we remain focused on delivering against our long-term objectives supported by the recurring non-discretionary demand of the aftermarket pool industry, the competitive advantages of our integrated network of physical and digital assets and the execution of our strategic growth initiatives,” Mr. Egeck concluded.

Fourth Quarter Highlights

Sales increased $66.7 million, or 16.3%, to $475.6 million compared to $408.9 million in the prior year period and comparable sales increased 10.2%.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) increased $13.2 million to $134.1 million compared to $120.9 million in the prior year period, primarily driven by the sales increase, inflationary costs associated with payroll and digital marketing expenses, and non-comparable SG&A related to our acquisitions.

Net income increased $13.4 million, or 30.1%, to $57.9 million compared to $44.5 million in the prior year period.

Inventories totaled $361.7 million as of October 1, 2022 compared to $198.8 million as of October 2, 2021, an increase of $162.9 million which reflected continued investment to meet consumer demand and to mitigate the impact of ongoing supply chain disruptions.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Operating Measures

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), we use certain non-GAAP financial measures and other operating measures, including comparable sales growth and Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income (loss), and Adjusted earnings

3


 

per share, to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, and to compare our performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures. These non-GAAP financial measures and other operating measures should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for our results as reported under GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures and other operating measures are not calculated in the same manner by all companies, and accordingly, are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies and may not be appropriate measures for performance relative to other companies.

 

Comparable Sales Growth

We measure comparable sales growth as the increase or decrease in sales recorded by the comparable base in any reporting period, compared to sales recorded by the comparable base in the prior reporting period. The comparable base includes sales through our locations and through our e-commerce websites and third-party marketplaces. Comparable sales growth is a key measure used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance.

 

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest (including amortization of debt issuance costs), taxes, depreciation and amortization, management fees, equity-based compensation expense, loss on debt extinguishment, costs related to equity offerings, strategic project costs, executive transition costs, loss (gain) on disposition of assets, mark-to-market on interest rate cap, and other non-recurring, non-cash or discrete items. Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA is also frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry, when considered alongside other GAAP measures. We use Adjusted EBITDA to supplement GAAP measures of performance to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions and to compare our performance against that of other companies using similar measures.

 

Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized measure of financial performance under GAAP but is used by some investors to determine a company’s ability to service or incur indebtedness. Adjusted EBITDA is not calculated in the same manner by all companies, and accordingly, is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies and may not be an appropriate measure for performance relative to other companies. Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an indicator of a company’s operating performance in isolation from, or as a substitute for, net income (loss), cash flows from operations or cash flow data, all of which are prepared in accordance with GAAP. We have presented Adjusted EBITDA solely as supplemental disclosure because we believe it allows for a more complete analysis of results of operations. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to represent, and should not be considered more meaningful than, or as an alternative to, measures of operating performance as determined in accordance with GAAP. In the future, we may incur expenses or charges such as those added back to calculate Adjusted EBITDA. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by these items.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings per Share

Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted earnings per share are additional key measures used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance. Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted earnings per share are also frequently used by analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry, when considered alongside other GAAP measures.

 

Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude management fees, equity-based compensation expense, loss on debt extinguishment, costs related to equity offerings, strategic project costs, executive transition costs, loss (gain) on disposition of assets, mark-to-market on interest rate cap, and other non-recurring, non-cash or discrete items. Adjusted diluted earnings per share is defined as Adjusted net income (loss) divided by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
