IRVINGTON, N.Y., Aug 05, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) --
Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:PBH) today announced results for the first quarter of fiscal 2011, which ended on June 30, 2010.
Net income from continuing operations for the first quarter was $9.6 million, or $0.19 of fully diluted earnings per share, 20% higher than the prior year's comparable period's net income of $8.0 million or $0.16 per fully diluted share.
Total revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 were $73.4 million, 3% higher than the prior year comparable quarter's results of $71.0 million.
Operating income for the first fiscal quarter was $21.3 million, 15% higher than the prior year's comparable period results of $18.5 million. The increase in operating income was due to an increase in gross profit resulting from higher revenues combined with favorable advertising and promotion (A&P) and general and administrative (G&A) expenditures.
Commentary
"This quarter's results affirm the strength of our core OTC business model and the overall direction of our strategic plan," said Matthew Mannelly, President and CEO. "We are pleased with the growth of our core OTC brands as well as their long-term potential. We remain confident in achieving our long-term goals, however, we are realistic about the overall economic environment and the challenges we face for the full year. In particular, given last years' heavy retailer buy-in of cough/cold products in anticipation of H1N1, the second quarter will be challenging from a revenue standpoint. Retailers have told us as well as our competitors that this buy-in will not be repeated this year in the second quarter."
Mr. Mannelly concluded, "We continue to look at optimizing our growth portfolio as a marathon, not a sprint. With our refinancing in place, we are focused on both organic growth in our core OTC brands as well as pursuing appropriate outside OTC opportunities."
Results by Segment for the First Fiscal Quarter
Over-the-Counter Healthcare Products (OTC)
Net revenues of $44.3 million for the OTC segment were $4.0 million or 10% higher than the prior year comparable period results of $40.3 million. The increase was driven by sales of Clear Eyes(R), Compound W(R), Wartner(R), New Skin(R), Murine Tears, Percogesic(R), and Sleep-Eze(R) in Canada, partially offset by decreases on the Allergen Block products and Earigate(R).
Of the Company's six core brands, five are in the OTC segment. These include Chloraseptic(R), Clear Eyes(R), Compound W(R), Little Remedies(R), and The Doctor's(R) NightGuard(R). Revenues for our core OTC brands were up 16% in the aggregate over the prior year comparable quarter.
Household Products
Revenues for this segment were $26.5 million, 3% less than the comparable first quarter of fiscal 2010. A sales increase on the Spic and Span(R) brand was offset by declines on the Comet(R) and Chore Boy(R) brands.
Personal Care Products
Revenues for this segment were $2.6 million, 22% below the prior year comparable quarter's revenues of $3.3 million. The sales decline traces to distribution losses for the Cutex(R) brand in the fall of 2010.
Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow is a "non-GAAP" measure as that term is defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission in Regulation G. Free cash flow is presented here because management believes it is a commonly used measure of liquidity, and is an indication of cash available for debt repayment and acquisitions. The Company defines free cash flow as operating cash flows less capital expenditures.
The Company's free cash flow for the first quarter ended June 30, 2010 was $20.6 million, composed of operating cash flow of $20.7 million, less capital expenditures of $0.1 million. This is a $2.6 million increase over the comparable quarter's free cash flow of $18.0 million, composed of operating cash flow of $18.1 million, less capital expenditures of $0.1 million.
