- Adjusted EBITDA of $89.9 million, or 10.4% of net sales, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $87.1 million, or 10.5% of net sales, in the second quarter of the prior fiscal year.
- The company completed one greenfield opening during the second quarter of fiscal 2020.
- Net leverage was reduced to 3.5 times as of the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from 3.7 times as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2020.
- Cash provided by operating activities and free cash flow for the first six months of fiscal 2020 totaled $69.9 million and $55.3 million, respectively, representing increases of 53.2% and 51.5%, respectively, from the first six months of fiscal 2019.
“The GMS team continued to execute well in the second quarter, growing sales, expanding gross margin and achieving higher net income and Adjusted EBITDA,” said John C. Turner, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer. “We achieved strong volume performance in the United States, where demand conditions remain solid, while managing continued softness in Canada. We also generated strong cash from operations and free cash flow, and continue to pursue our existing capital allocation priorities, including debt reduction and prudent geographic and market share expansion through acquisitions and greenfields.
“Moving forward, we remain focused on our strategic priorities which include increased emphasis on organic growth through expanding market share in core products and growing our complementary product lines. We will also continue to pursue strategic acquisitions and greenfield branch openings as we broaden our geographic platform. With a heightened focus on enhanced productivity and profitability across the organization, we are confident that we are well-positioned to capitalize on the growth opportunities ahead and drive value for our shareholders.”
Second Quarter Fiscal 2020 Results
Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 of $861.9 million were up 3.4%, or 2.7% on an organic basis, compared to $833.8 million for the second quarter of the prior fiscal year.
- Wallboard sales of $350.6 million increased 4.8% (4.0% on an organic basis) compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2019, driven primarily by higher organic volumes and acquisitions, partially offset by lower pricing/mix.
- Ceilings sales of $122.8 million increased 3.7% (1.7% on an organic basis) compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2019, primarily due to higher organic volumes and acquisitions, as well as slightly higher pricing/mix.
- Steel framing sales of $136.2 million increased 0.3% (down 0.6% on an organic basis) compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2019, driven by higher organic volumes and acquisitions, partially offset by lower pricing/mix.
- Other product sales of $252.3 million increased 3.0% (3.1% on an organic basis) compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2019, due to higher organic growth and acquisitions.
Gross profit of $284.5 million increased 6.1% from $268.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, as a result of higher sales, both organically and including the positive impact of acquisitions. Gross margin of 33.0% increased 80 basis points from 32.2% a year ago primarily due to net favorable price-cost dynamics, acquisition-related purchasing synergies and product mix.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense as a percentage of net sales was 23.3% for the quarter compared to 22.2% in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Adjusted SG&A expense as a percentage of net sales was 22.7% compared to 21.8% in the prior year quarter. The 90 basis point increase in adjusted SG&A as a percentage of sales resulted primarily from the year-over-year decline in the selling price of certain of our products and, to a lesser extent, continuing inflationary cost pressures. In addition, the Company continued to make ongoing investments in greenfields and business initiatives intended to drive growth and productivity.
Net income of $29.1 million, or $0.68 per diluted share, compared to $24.9 million, or $0.58 per diluted share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Adjusted net income of $42.7 million, or $1.00 per diluted share, compared to $38.3 million, or $0.89 per diluted share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Adjusted EBITDA of $89.9 million increased 3.2% year over year and represented an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 10.4%.
Balance Sheet
As of October 31, 2019, the Company had cash of $36.3 million and total debt of $1.10 billion, compared to cash of $24.1 million and total debt of $1.16 billion, as of July 31, 2019.
As previously disclosed, during the second fiscal quarter, the Company amended its asset based revolving credit facility to increase commitments from $345.0 million to $445.0 million, extend the maturity date to September 30, 2024 and improve the rate structure.

About GMS Inc.
Founded in 1971, GMS operates a network of more than 250 distribution centers across the United States and Canada. GMS’s extensive product offering of wallboard, suspended ceilings systems, or ceilings, and complementary construction products is designed to provide a comprehensive one-stop-shop for our core customer, the interior contractor who installs these products in commercial and residential buildings.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
GMS reports its financial results in accordance with GAAP. However, it presents Adjusted net income, free cash flow, Adjusted SG&A, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, which are not recognized financial measures under GAAP. GMS believes that Adjusted net income, free cash flow, Adjusted SG&A, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin assist investors and analysts in comparing its operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that the Company does not believe are indicative of its core operating performance. The Company’s management believes Adjusted net income, Adjusted SG&A, free cash flow, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are helpful in highlighting trends in its operating results, while other measures can differ significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which the Company operates and capital investments. In addition, the Company utilizes Adjusted EBITDA in certain calculations under its senior secured asset based revolving credit facility and its senior secured first lien term loan facility.
You are encouraged to evaluate each adjustment and the reasons GMS considers it appropriate for supplemental analysis. In addition, in evaluating Adjusted net income, Adjusted SG&A and Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future, the Company may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in the presentation of Adjusted net income, Adjusted SG&A and Adjusted EBITDA. The Company’s presentation of Adjusted net income, Adjusted SG&A, Adjusted SG&A margin, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin should not be construed as an inference that its future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. In addition, Adjusted net income, free cash flow, Adjusted SG&A and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in GMS’s industry or across different industries. Please see the tables at the end of this release for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, Adjusted SG&A and Adjusted net income to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
When calculating organic net sales growth, the Company excludes from the calculation (i) net sales of acquired businesses until the first anniversary of the acquisition date, and (ii) the impact of foreign currency translation.
