LAFAYETTE, Ind., Jan. 29, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wabash National Corporation (NYSE: WNC), a diversified industrial manufacturer and a leading producer of semi-trailers, truck bodies and liquid transportation systems, today reported results for the quarter and full year periods ending December 31, 2018.

Net sales for the fourth quarter 2018 increased 12 percent to $610 million from $543 million in the prior year quarter while each of the Company’s three segments contributed to the strong top-line growth as market demand remained strong. Gross profit margin contracted 210 basis points as compared to the prior year period as a result of continued cost pressures due to the current operating environment. Operating income was $22.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2018 or $36.4 million, on a non-GAAP adjusted basis, after excluding a non-cash impairment charge of $13 million related to the sale of the Aviation and Truck Equipment business in the Diversified Products reportable segment.

“In a quarter impacted by challenges in the operating environment, we continued to strengthen long-term relationships with our customers by shipping near-record volumes. We generated quarterly net sales of $610 million in the fourth quarter, a 12 percent increase versus the prior year quarter, and full year sales of $2.3 billion, the highest in the Company’s 33-year history," explained Brent Yeagy, president and chief executive officer. "Due in part to the strength in demand conditions, all three of our reporting segments faced continued operating pressures which negatively impacted our margins. We are highly focused on reducing the cost pressures that included a shortage of chassis and other components, as well as increased labor and material costs. We have taken action to improve pricing across all three business segments in order to recover higher materials and manufacturing costs. We launched additional productivity initiatives and bolstered supply chain effectiveness through both resourcing and planning improvements. We are confident that these actions will address the short-term operating pressures to clear the way for improved margin performance in 2019.”

Net income for the fourth quarter 2018 was $11.6 million, or 21 cents per diluted share. Adjusted non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter was $21.5 million or 38 cents per share, compared to 36 cents in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Operating EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure that excludes the effects of certain items, for the fourth quarter 2018 was $47.6 million, or 7.8 percent of net sales, and full year operating EBITDA of $186.9 million, or 8.2 percent of net sales.

Mr. Yeagy continued, “While we expect strong industry volumes in 2019, we also anticipate some level of short-term supplier and cost challenges continuing into the new year. I am confident in our team's ability to successfully navigate these issues as we focus on mitigating supplier disruptions and driving increased productivity.  With strong market conditions, a solid balance sheet and six consecutive years of converting free cash flow in excess of net income, I expect 2019 to be a strong year for Wabash National. We expect 2019 full-year revenue to be between $2.25 billion to $2.35 billion based on our current backlog and we feel it is prudent to revise our full-year earnings outlook to $1.50 to $1.70 per diluted share based on the carryover of supply disruption and cost pressures moving into 2019.”

Commercial Trailer Products’ net sales for the fourth quarter increased $52.7 million, or 14 percent, to $439 million. Gross profit margin for the fourth quarter decreased 190 basis points as compared to the prior year period primarily due to the impact of supplier disruptions, as well as increased labor and material costs.  Operating income decreased $1.1 million, or 2.6 percent, from the fourth quarter last year to $39.1 million, or 8.9 percent of net sales.

Diversified Products’ net sales for the fourth quarter were $102 million, an increase of $10.6 million, or 11 percent, as compared to the prior year, due primarily to the increased demand for liquid tank trailers. Gross profit and profit margin as compared to the prior year period decreased $0.6 million and 270 basis points, respectively, primarily due to increased material and labor costs, including higher overtime levels to meet strong demand requirements and supplier induced production interruptions. Operating income in the fourth quarter of 2018, excluding a $13.0 million non-cash impairment charge, was $6.9 million, or 6.7 percent of net sales, representing an increase of $1.3 million as compared to the prior year period.

Final Mile Products’ net sales for the fourth quarter totaled $75 million. Gross profit and gross profit margin for the fourth quarter were $7.4 million and 9.9 percent, respectively. Operating loss was $1.5 million, or 2.0 percent of net sales. Operating results were negatively impacted during the quarter by chassis supply issues and other supplier shortages causing operating inefficiencies as well as higher labor costs.

Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the financial information included in this release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including operating EBITDA, operating EBITDA margin, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per diluted share.  These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures and results calculated in accordance with GAAP, including net income, and reconciliations to GAAP financial statements should be carefully evaluated.

Operating EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, acquisition expenses, impairments, and other non-operating income and expense. Management believes providing operating EBITDA is useful for investors to understand the Company’s performance and results of operations period to period with the exclusion of the items identified above. Management believes the presentation of operating EBITDA, when combined with the GAAP presentations of operating income and net income, is beneficial to an investor’s understanding of the Company’s operating performance. A reconciliation of operating EBITDA to net income is included in the tables following this release.

Adjusted operating income, a non-GAAP financial measure, excludes certain costs, expenses, other charges, gains or income that are included in the determination of operating income under U.S. GAAP, but that management would not consider important in evaluating the quality of the Company’s operating results as they are not indicative of the Company’s core operating results or may obscure trends useful in evaluating the Company’s continuing activities. Accordingly, the Company presents adjusted operating income excluding these Special Items to help investors evaluate our operating performance and trends in our business consistent with how management evaluates such performance and trends. Further, the Company presents adjusted operating income to provide investors with a better understanding of the Company’s view of our results as compared to prior periods.  A reconciliation of adjusted operating income to operating income, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, is included in the tables following this press release.

Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per diluted share, each reflect adjustments for acquisition expenses, the losses attributable to the Company’s extinguishment of debt, impairment charges, executive severance costs, income or losses recognized on the sale and/or closure of former Company locations, adjustments related to the Company’s deferred tax assets as a result of IRS guidance on application of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, and reversal of reserves for uncertain tax positions. Management believes providing adjusted measures and excluding certain items facilitates comparisons to the Company’s prior year periods and, when combined with the GAAP presentation of net income and diluted net income per share, is beneficial to an investor’s understanding of the Company’s performance. A reconciliation of each of adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per diluted share to net income and net income per diluted share is included in the tables following this release.
