NORTHLAKE, Texas, May 06, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Farmer Bros. Co. (NASDAQ: FARM) (the “Company”) today reported financial results for its third fiscal quarter ended March�31, 2021.
Third Quarter Fiscal 2021 Highlights:
Business Update
Financial Results
(*Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, is reconciled to its corresponding GAAP measure at the end of this press release.)
Deverl Maserang, President & CEO, commented, As the nation continues to recover from the pandemic and, more recently, severe weather throughout the Central U.S., relative performance in our more impacted DSD business continues to show improvements from pre-COVID levels. At the same time, we are seeing early benefits from our focus on our five key turnaround strategies, particularly in the form of considerable and scalable network efficiencies that will be seen more fully in our results as sales continue to improve. March results were the best weve seen since the pandemic began, and we expect trends will continue to rebound as certain markets begin to more fully open and as certain parts of our business, such as healthcare and lodging, show continued recovery. Additionally, our new credit facility that we executed in April will give us improved borrowing costs and greater ability to leverage our collateral and operational plans, while allowing us to focus more fully on accelerating growth and innovation throughout the organization.

Net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 were $93.2 million, a decrease of $36.0 million, or 27.9%, from the prior year same period. The decrease in net sales was driven primarily by lower sales of coffee, beverage and allied products sold through our DSD network due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As local governments across the country ease COVID-19 restrictions, and vaccines are distributed and rolled out successfully, we continue to see improved trends with average weekly sales during the quarter ended March 31, 2021 down 36% compared to pre-COVID levels. Currently, during the month of April 2021, our average weekly DSD sales are down approximately 27% from pre-COVID levels. The largest DSD revenue declines were from restaurants, hotels and casino channels. This still represents significant improvement since the worst effects on our business from COVID-19 in April 2020 when DSD sales were down by approximately 65% to 70%.
Our direct ship sales declined 23% compared to the prior year period due to lower coffee volume related to COVID-19 and the impact of coffee prices for our cost plus customers, partially offset by improved volume from our retail business, key grocery stores under their private labels, and third party e-commerce platforms.
Gross profit in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 was $23.9 million, a decrease of $14.1 million, or 37.1% from the prior year same period, and gross margin decreased to 25.6% from 29.4% compared to the prior year same period. The decrease in gross profit was primarily driven by lower net sales of $36.0 million, partially offset by lower cost of goods sold. The decline in gross margin was primarily driven by COVID-19 and the unfavorable impact it had on our customer mix since our DSD channel has higher margins. The gross margin decline was partially offset by lower freight costs, lower warehouse costs, and lower coffee brewing equipment (“CBE”) costs.
Operating expenses in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 decreased $48.8 million to $34.3 million compared to $83.1 million in the prior year same period, and as a percentage of net sales, decreased to 36.8% of net sales compared to 64.4% in the prior year same period. These declines were attributable to a $9.2 million decrease in selling expenses, and the absence of a $42.0 million of goodwill and intangible asset impairments. This was partially offset by a $2.2 million increase in general and administrative expenses and a $0.2 million increase in net losses realized from the sale of assets. The decrease in selling expenses was primarily driven by reductions in headcount, lower fleet and freight costs, lower DSD sales commissions and lower travel expenses. The increase in general and administrative expenses was due to the reversal of the previously accrued employee incentive bonus in the prior year period when the pandemic first impacted our operating results in March 2020, and one-time costs associated with our supply chain optimization initiatives completed this quarter, that were incurred with the exiting of our Houston, Texas facility, and the opening and full ramp-up of our new west coast distribution facility in Rialto, California. Excluding this impact, general and administrative expenses would have declined due to reductions in third party costs and reductions in headcount due to the effects of the COVID-19.
As a result of the foregoing factors, net loss was $13.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 as compared to net loss of $39.8 million in the prior year same period.
Our capital expenditures for the nine months ended March 31, 2021 were $12.8 million, representing lower maintenance capital spend of $5.8 million, a 45.6% reduction compared to the prior year period, and various capital investment spending of $7.0 million. The spending reductions were driven by several key initiatives put in place, including a focus on refurbished CBE equipment to drive cost savings, and reductions across some capital categories due to additional cost controls implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic. The investment capital was primarily due to key strategic optimization initiatives to increase the capacity at our Northlake, Texas plant, in connection with closure of the Houston, Texas plant, and the opening of a new distribution center in Rialto, California. Each of these projects were completed in the third quarter ended March 31, 2021.
As of March 31, 2021, the outstanding debt on our revolver was $88.0 million, a decrease of $34.0 million since June 30, 2020. Our cash balance decreased to $8.5 million as of March 31, 2021 compared to $60.0 million as of June 30, 2020. These changes resulted from the repayments on our revolver completed under the terms of our amended credit facility in July of 2020. The net decline in our liquidity was due to our investment in inventory, capital expenditures to fund certain key growth initiatives noted above, and pension funding requirements that were previously deferred under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act.
As of April 26, 2021, our total debt was $96.1 million and we had unrestricted cash of $8.2 million and $23.2 million of availability under our new credit facilities. We also had restricted cash on hand of an additional $4.5 million used to collateralize our letters of credit on the old credit facility until we issue the letters of credit on the new credit facility.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are non-GAAP (U.S. generally accepted accounting principles) financial measures within the meaning of the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). See the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section on why the Company believes these supplemental measures are useful, reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, and the limitations on the use of these supplemental measures.
Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $0.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, as compared to Adjusted EBITDA income of $6.6 million in the prior year period, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin was a loss of 0.8% in the third quarter of fiscal 2020, as compared to Adjusted EBITDA Margin income of 5.1% in the prior year period.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to net (loss) income determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we use the following non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our operating performance:
EBITDA is defined as net (loss) income excluding the impact of:
EBITDA Margin is defined as EBITDA expressed as a percentage of net sales.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net (loss) income excluding the impact of:
Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA expressed as a percentage of net sales.
For purposes of calculating EBITDA and EBITDA Margin and Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, we have excluded the impact of interest expense resulting from the adoption of ASU 2017-07, non-cash pretax pension and postretirement benefits resulting from the amendment and termination of certain Farmer Bros. pension and postretirement benefits plans and severance because these items are not reflective of our ongoing operating results.
We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide a useful measure of the Companys operating results, a meaningful comparison with historical results and with the results of other companies, and insight into the Companys ongoing operating performance. Further, management utilizes these measures, in addition to GAAP measures, when evaluating and comparing the Companys operating performance against internal financial forecasts and budgets.
We believe that EBITDA facilitates operating performance comparisons from period to period by isolating the effects of certain items that vary from period to period without any correlation to core operating performance or that vary widely among similar companies. These potential differences may be caused by variations in capital structures (affecting interest expense), tax positions (such as the impact on periods or companies of changes in effective tax rates or net operating losses) and the age and book depreciation of facilities and equipment (affecting relative depreciation expense). We also present EBITDA and EBITDA Margin because (i) we believe that these measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry, (ii) we believe that investors will find these measures useful in assessing our ability to service or incur indebtedness, and (iii) we use these measures internally as benchmarks to compare our performance to that of our competitors.
EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, as defined by us, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We do not intend for non-GAAP financial measures to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
