First Quarter 2024 Results Overview

For the first quarter of 2024, net revenue was $692.9 million, an increase of 5.1% from $659.3 million for the first quarter of 2023. On a consolidated same branch basis, net revenue increased 2.9% from the prior year quarter, which was primarily attributable to a 3.8% increase in price/mix partially offset by a 1.4% decline in IBP's reported job volume. Residential sales growth within the Company's Installation segment was 3.8% on a same branch basis in the quarter, as a 1.5% improvement in single-family same branch sales combined with a 13.0% increase in multi-family same branch sales. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the number of single-family housing units under construction across the industry fell 6% from the prior year quarter while multi-family units were up 1% relative to last year. Commercial same branch sales were down 0.8% from the prior year quarter and total commercial sales increased 2.8%, which includes the Company's recent acquisitions.

Gross profit improved 11.5% to $234.5 million from $210.4 million in the prior year quarter. Gross profit and adjusted gross profit* as a percent of total revenue were 33.8% and 33.9%, respectively, up from 31.9% for both gross profit and adjusted gross profit in the same period last year. Adjusted gross profit primarily adjusts for the Company's share-based compensation expense.

Selling and administrative expense, as a percent of net revenue, was 19.6% compared to 18.5% in the prior year quarter. Adjusted selling and administrative expense*, as a percent of net revenue, was 19.0% compared to 17.9% in the prior year quarter.

Net income was $55.9 million, or $1.97 per diluted share, compared to $49.3 million, or $1.74 per diluted share in the prior year quarter.

Adjusted net income* was $70.2 million, or $2.47 per diluted share, compared to $60.7 million, or $2.15 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. Adjusted net income margin* for the first quarter was 10.1% compared to 9.2% in the prior year quarter. Adjusted net income accounts for the impact of non-core items in both periods, including an addback for non-cash amortization expense related to acquisitions.

EBITDA* was $112.8 million, an 11.6% increase from $101.1 million in the prior year quarter as a result of improved margins of 16.3% and 15.3%, respectively.

*Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), this press release contains the non-GAAP financial measures of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin (i.e., Adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenue), Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income per diluted share, Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Selling and Administrative expense. The reasons for the use of these measures, reconciliations of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income per diluted share, Adjusted Gross Profit, and Adjusted Selling and Administrative expense to the most directly comparable GAAP measures and other information relating to these measures are included below following the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for IBP's financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Selling and Administrative Expense measure performance by adjusting GAAP net income, EBITDA, gross profit and selling and administrative expense, respectively, for certain income or expense items that are not considered part of our core operations. We believe that the presentation of these measures provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations because it assists both investors and us in analyzing and benchmarking the performance and value of our business.

We believe the Adjusted EBITDA measure is useful to investors and us as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period as it measures our changes in pricing decisions, cost controls and other factors that impact operating performance, and removes the effect of our capital structure (primarily interest expense), asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization), items outside our control (primarily income taxes) and the volatility related to the timing and extent of other activities such as asset impairments and non-core income and expenses. Accordingly, we believe that this measure is useful for comparing general operating performance from period to period. In addition, we use various EBITDA-based measures in determining the achievement of awards under certain of our incentive compensation programs. Other companies may define Adjusted EBITDA differently and, as a result, our measure may not be directly comparable to measures of other companies. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA may be defined differently for purposes of covenants contained in our revolving credit facility or any future facility.

Although we use the Adjusted EBITDA measure to assess the performance of our business, the use of the measure is limited because it does not include certain material expenses, such as interest and taxes, necessary to operate our business. Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, GAAP net income as a measure of performance. Our presentation of this measure should not be construed as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. This measure has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because of these limitations, this measure is not intended as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance, as an alternative to any other measure of performance in conformity with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity. You should therefore not place undue reliance on this measure or ratios calculated using this measure.

We also believe the Adjusted Net Income measure is useful to investors and us as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period as it measures our changes in pricing decisions, cost controls and other factors that impact operating performance, and removes the effect of certain non-core items such as discontinued operations, acquisition related expenses, amortization expense, the tax impact of these certain non-core items, and the volatility related to the timing and extent of other activities such as asset impairments and non-core income and expenses. To make the financial presentation more consistent with other public building products companies, beginning in the fourth quarter 2016 we included an addback for non-cash amortization expense related to acquisitions. Accordingly, we believe that this measure is useful for comparing general operating performance from period to period. Other companies may define Adjusted Net Income differently and, as a result, our measure may not be directly comparable to measures of other companies. In addition, Adjusted Net Income may be defined differently for purposes of covenants contained in our revolving credit facility or any future facility.
