Fortune Brands Home & Security, Inc. (NYSE:FBHS, the "Company", or "Fortune Brands"))), an industry-leading home and security products company, today announced that it intends to separate into two publicly traded companies and also reported first quarter 2022 results.
Summary of Intent to Separate Fortune Brands into Two World Class Companies
Fortune Brands' Board of Directors authorized the Company to pursue a tax-free spin-off of its Cabinets business into a standalone publicly traded company. Upon closing of the proposed separation, shareholders would hold interests in two leading companies. The separation represents the Company's next chapter of outstanding value creation. The result will be two well-positioned, leading companies with exceptional potential. New Fortune Brands will bring brand and innovation excellence to super-charged categories, leveraging secular growth themes of water management, outdoor living, material conversion and science, and connected products. Additionally, shareholders would hold interests in North America's leading cabinets company delivering top-tier performance through operational excellence. A potential separation is subject to further Board approval and other customary conditions and is expected to take approximately 12 months to complete. Management will discuss the separation as part of its first quarter earnings call later today. An investor presentation highlighting the proposed separation, as well as first quarter earnings call details, can be found in the investor section on the Company's website at www.FBHS.com.
"We are excited to be taking the next step in our value creation journey for stakeholders. There is much work to be done, but together with the rest of our Board, I believe that this separation will enable each company to recognize its full potential and unlock even greater long-term stakeholder value," said Nicholas Fink, chief executive officer, Fortune Brands. "Each company will pursue independent paths with fit-for-purpose strategies supported by thoughtful investments. Our entire Company has delivered exceptional results over the past ten years, and our cabinets business has implemented the capabilities and demonstrated the performance required to thrive as an independent entity. The separation will result in two world class businesses with the scale, winning strategies, capabilities, and leadership to sustain and accelerate value creation. We are very excited for the future."
Advisors
The Company will be advised on the proposed separation by Ardea Partners, Barclays, Rothschild & Co, and Sidley Austin LLP.
First Quarter 2022
For the first quarter of 2022, sales were $1.9 billion, an increase of 8 percent over the first quarter of 2021. Earnings per share were $1.34, compared to $1.26 in the prior-year quarter, an increase of 6 percent. EPS before charges / gains were $1.31, compared to $1.36 the same quarter last year, a decrease of 4 percent. Operating income was $253.4 million, compared to $248.4 million in the prior-year quarter, an increase of 2 percent. Operating income before charges / gains was $249.6 million, compared to $261.8 million the same quarter last year, down 5 percent. Operating margin was 13.2 percent, compared to 14.0 percent in the first quarter of 2021. Operating margin before charges / gains was 13.0 percent, compared to 14.8 percent in the first quarter of 2021.
For each segment in the first quarter of 2022, compared to the prior-year quarter:
- Water Innovations (formerly the Global Plumbing Group) sales increased 4 percent, with no material FX impact in the period. Results were driven by sales growth across all major markets. Operating margin before charges / gains was 23.3 percent.
- Outdoors & Security sales increased 8 percent, driven by double-digit sales growth in doors and security products. Operating margin before charges / gains was 11.2 percent.
- Cabinet sales increased 13 percent, driven by growth across stock and make-to-order. Operating margin before charges / gains was 9.5 percent.
"Our teams again delivered excellent results in an extremely dynamic environment, demonstrating our commitment to serving our valued channel partners and consumers," said Fink. "Demand remains robust across the portfolio and the consumer is continuing to invest in the home. We remain fully aware of the potential challenges from rising interest rates and continued inflation on consumers in the near-term, and our teams are actively managing our businesses to create value and deliver regardless of the environment. Demand and demographic fundamentals for housing remain favorable and support long-term growth and margin expansion going forward."
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
At the end of the quarter, net debt was $3.0 billion and net debt to EBITDA was 2.3x. The Company had $378 million in cash and $553 million of availability under its revolving credit facility.
During the first quarter, the Company announced a $750 million share repurchase reauthorization. During the quarter, the Company repurchased approximately $380 million in common stock and year-to-date has repurchased approximately $405 million in common stock.
Additionally, on March 28, 2022, the Company announced it had priced $900 million in senior unsecured notes and used the proceeds and other liquidity sources to retire an outstanding term loan.
Annual Outlook for 2022
The Company is increasing the midpoint of full-year EPS by $0.05 to a range of $6.40 to $6.60, reflecting the impact of share repurchases net of interest expense and tax items. The midpoint implies EPS growth of 13 percent versus prior year. The Company is maintaining its operational guidance for the year.
"Our strong business model and track record of performance have proven resilient in a variety of complex market conditions over the past few years," said Patrick Hallinan, chief financial officer, Fortune Brands. "We believe in the strength of long-term housing fundamentals, and we are confident in our leadership's ability to seize on the opportunities and mitigate the challenges that may arise in the fluid near-term environment. We will continue to utilize our strength to position our Company for success and opportunistically deploy capital to drive value creation."

| ** Free cash flow is cash flow from operations calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") less net capital expenditures (capital expenditures less proceeds from the disposition of assets including property, plant and equipment, and proceeds from the exercise of stock options). Free cash flow does not include adjustments for certain non-discretionary cash flows such as mandatory debt repayments. Free cash flow is a measure not derived in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that free cash flow provides investors with helpful supplemental information about the Company's ability to fund internal growth, make acquisitions, repay debt and related interest, pay dividends and repurchase common stock. This measure may be inconsistent with similar measures presented by other companies. | ||||||||||||

| (1) Restructuring charges are costs incurred to implement significant cost reduction initiatives and include workforce reduction costs. | |||||||||||
| (2) "Other charges/gains" represent pre-tax charges directly related to restructuring initiatives that cannot be reported as restructuring under GAAP. Such costs may include losses on disposal of inventories, trade receivables allowances from exiting product lines, accelerated depreciation resulting from the closure of facilities and gains or losses on the sale of previously closed facilities. In total, we recognized other net gains of $5.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, and other charges of $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. In our Outdoors & Security segment, other charges also include an acquisition-related inventory step-up expense (Solar Innovations) of $0.7 million classified in cost of products sold and $0.3 million classified in selling, general and administrative for a compensation arrangement with the former owner of Solar for the three months ended March 31, 2022. At Corporate, other charges also include pre-tax expenditures of $0.3 million for banking, legal, accounting and other similar services directly related to the acquisition of Larson classified in selling, general and administrative expenses and a pre-tax charge of $0.2 million for a loss on sale of a Corporate asset during the three months ended March 31, 2021. In our Outdoors & Security segment, other charges also includes an acquisition-related inventory step-up expense (Larson) of $3.4 million classified in cost of products sold for the three months ended March 31, 2021. |

| In the first quarter of 2022, our Plumbing segment was renamed "Water Innovations" in order to better align with our key brands and organizational purpose. The Plumbing segment name change is to the name only and had no impact on the Company's historical financial position, results of operations, cash flow or segment level results previously reported. | ||
| In 2018 our Water Innovations segment entered into a strategic partnership with, and acquired non-controlling equity interests in, Flo Technologies, Inc. ("Flo"), a U.S. manufacturer of comprehensive water monitoring and shut-off systems with leak detection technologies. In January 2020, we entered into an agreement to acquire the remaining outstanding shares of Flo in a multi-phase transaction. As part of this agreement, we acquired a majority of Flo's outstanding shares during 2020 and entered into a forward contract to purchase all remaining shares of Flo during the first quarter of 2022 for a price based on a multiple of Flo's 2021 sales and adjusted earnings before interest and taxes. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we made a final cash payment of $16.5 million to the legacy minority shareholders and it is classified in the Other financing, net line of the cash flow statement. | ||
In January 2022, we acquired 100% of the outstanding equity of Solar Innovations LLC and an affiliated entity (together, "Solar"), a leading producer of wide-opening exterior door systems and outdoor enclosures, for a total gross purchase price of approximately $63 million. The acquisition cost is subject to a final post-closing working capital adjustment. We financed the transaction using cash on hand and borrowings under our existing revolving credit facilities. Solar is part of the Outdoors & Security segment. Its complementary product offerings will support the segment's outdoor living strategy.
