GAAP SG&A expenses reduced to 26% of net sales; adjusted SG&A expenses to 24% of net sales
GAAP earnings per share of $0.37; adjusted earnings per share of $0.47

FY 2021 orders increased 13% versus prior year; backlog remains strong

"We had a strong finish to fiscal 2021 as demand for our unique carbon neutral and carbon negative products continues to grow. Fourth-quarter orders increased 19% and net sales grew 23% versus the prior year period, driven by strength across all product categories. I continue to be impressed by our team's ability to navigate through a difficult year marked by inflation and supply chain headwinds. We successfully mitigated the negative impact on margins and, as promised, we materially and sustainably reduced SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales," said Dan Hendrix, Chairman and CEO of Interface. "Significant wins throughout the year drove progress on our Climate Take Back^TM journey, underpinning our position as a leader in carbontech. As businesses increasingly adopt carbon reduction goals, we are in the best industry position to fulfill this growing and important need in the marketplace."

"We carry this strong momentum into 2022 as our disciplined capital allocation strategy and strong cash generation have laid a solid foundation for growth in 2022 and beyond. In 2021, we generated $87 million of cash from operations and repaid $56 million of debt, reducing leverage to 2.5x net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA. We expect to further reduce leverage to approximately 2.0x net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA by the end of 2022," added Bruce Hausmann, CFO of Interface.

* Historical AEBITDA figures have been updated to reflect a change in depreciation and amortization values used to calculate AEBITDA.

The impacts of changes in foreign currency presented in the tables are calculated based on applying the prior year period's average foreign currency exchange rates to the current year period.

The Company believes that the above non-GAAP performance measures, which management uses in managing and evaluating the Company's business, may provide users of the Company's financial information with additional meaningful basis for comparing the Company's current results and results in a prior period, as these measures reflect factors that are unique to one period relative to the comparable period. However, these non–GAAP performance measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company's reported results under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Tax effects identified above (when applicable) are calculated using the statutory tax rate for the jurisdictions in which the charge or income occurred.
