ATLANTA - November 8, 2018 - BlueLinx Holdings Inc. (NYSE:BXC), a leading distributor of building and industrial products in the United States, today reported financial results for the fiscal third quarter ended September 29, 2018.
“BlueLinx remains focused on integrating our second quarter acquisition of Cedar Creek and is pleased to announce that we expect our synergies efforts by the end of the year to result in an annual benefit of at least $25 million in 2019,” said Mitch Lewis, President and Chief Executive Officer. “While the wood-based commodity markets have proven challenging over the last few months, our third quarter performance provides evidence that our diversity can afford protection during market dislocations. We remain confident in our ability to deliver the expected synergies of at least $50 million annually, continue to operate effectively to realize market opportunities from our combination, and are well-positioned to drive enhanced value for our customers and shareholders.”
Susan O’Farrell, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, added, “We remain focused on our strategic objectives, making significant progress with our integration efforts and delivering solid financial results despite the significant headwinds we incurred. Our excess availability and cash on hand during the quarter averaged $142 million demonstrating our strong liquidity and deleveraging potential.”
BlueLinx completed the acquisition of Cedar Creek on April 13, 2018 (the “Closing Date”). Under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), Cedar Creek’s financial results are only included in the combined company’s reported financial results from the Closing Date forward and are not reflected in the combined company’s reported financial results for any periods prior to the Closing Date. In this release, to supplement and aid in an understanding of the combined company’s reported financial results, BlueLinx is also providing certain GAAP-based and non-GAAP Pro forma financial information of the combined company that includes Cedar Creek’s financial results for the relevant periods prior to the Closing Date, as if the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2017. See “Use of Non-GAAP Measures and Supplementary Information” below and the accompanying financial schedules for more information, including descriptions of any such pro forma measures that may be non-GAAP measures and reconciliations of those non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures.
Third Quarter 2018 Results Compared to Prior Year Period
The Company reported net sales of $859.8 million for the third quarter of 2018, up $380.5 million or 79.4% from the prior year period. Pro forma net sales were up $18.4 million or 2.2%.
The Company recorded gross profit of $91.8 million during the third quarter, up $31.2 million or 51.5% from the prior year period, with a gross margin of 10.7%. Gross profit was negatively impacted by a lower of cost or net realizable value adjustment on inventory of $5.2 million related to lumber and wood products, and acquisition related inventory step-up charges of $0.9 million due to the second quarter acquisition of Cedar Creek. Pro forma gross profit was $92.6 million during the third quarter, down $17.6 million or 16.0%. The Company recorded a net loss of $9.9 million for the third quarter, compared to a net income of $5.7 million in the prior year period. In addition to the lower of cost or net realizable value inventory and inventory step-up adjustments, the net loss was negatively impacted by a partial multi-employer pension plan withdrawal charge of $6.5 million and acquisition related fees of $3.8 million. Pro forma net loss for the third quarter was $6.2 million.

Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP measure, was $16.6 million for the third quarter, up $2.7 million or 19.0% from this period a year ago. Pro forma Adjusted EBITDA, also a non-GAAP measure, was $16.6 million for the third quarter, down $13.5 million or 44.7%.

The Company recorded gross profit of $250.7 million during the first nine months of 2018, up $75.2 million or 42.8% from the prior year period, with a gross margin of 11.4%. Gross profit was negatively impacted by acquisition related inventory step-up charges of $11.8 million and a lower of cost or net realizable value inventory adjustment of $5.2 million. Excluding the effect of acquisition related inventory step-up charges of $11.8 million, gross margin was 12.0%.

Additionally, the Company incurred $14.7 million in share-based compensation expense and $11.8 million of acquisition-related inventory step-up charges. Taking these items into account, the Company recorded a net loss of $31.9 million for the first nine months of 2018, compared to net income of $9.5 million in the prior year period. Pro forma net loss for the first nine months of 2018 was $5.5 million, a $15.0 million or 73.4% improvement over the prior year period.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures and Supplementary Information
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The Company also believes that presentation of certain non-GAAP measures and GAAP-based and non-GAAP supplemental financial measures may be useful to investors and may provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than using reported GAAP results alone. Any non-GAAP measures used herein are reconciled herein or in the financial tables accompanying this news release to their most directly comparable GAAP measures. The Company cautions that non-GAAP measures and supplemental financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the Company’s reported GAAP results.
Adjusted EBITDA and Pro forma Adjusted EBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA as an amount equal to net income plus interest expense and all interest expense related items,
income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and further adjusted for certain non-cash items and other special items, including compensation expense from share based compensation, one-time charges associated with the legal, consulting, and professional fees related to the Cedar Creek acquisition, and gains on sales of properties including amortization of deferred gains.
We present Adjusted EBITDA because it is a primary measure used by management to evaluate operating performance and, we believe, helps to enhance investors’ overall understanding of the financial performance and cash flows of our business. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is helpful in highlighting operating trends. We also believe that Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of companies, many of which present an Adjusted EBITDA measure when reporting their results. However, Adjusted EBITDA is not a presentation made in accordance with GAAP, and is not intended to present a superior measure of the financial condition from those determined under GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA, as used herein, is not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to differences in methods of calculation.
2

Pro forma Adjusted EBITDA for any period is calculated in the same manner as Adjusted EBITDA, but also combines the historical results of BlueLinx for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2018, and September 30, 2017, with the historical results of Cedar Creek for the three month period ended March 31, 2018, and thirteen day period ended April 13, 2018, and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, giving effect to the Cedar Creek acquisition and related adjustments as if the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2017.
Supplemental Financial Measures
We completed the acquisition of Cedar Creek on April 13, 2018. As a result, Cedar Creek’s financial results are only included in the combined company’s reported financial results from the Closing Date forward. To supplement these reported results, we have provided GAAP-based and non-GAAP pro forma financial information of the combined company in this news release that includes Cedar Creek’s financial results for the relevant periods prior to the Closing Date. This pro forma information combines the historical results of BlueLinx for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2018, and September 30, 2017, with the historical results of Cedar Creek for the three month period ended March 31, 2018, and thirteen day period ended April 13, 2018, and the three and six months ended July 1, 2017, respectively, giving effect to the Cedar Creek acquisition and related adjustments as if the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2017.

(1) The pro forma amounts above have been calculated in accordance with GAAP after applying the Company's accounting policies and adjusting: (i) the three- and nine-months ended September 29, 2018, to reflect a $0.9 million and $11.8 million, respectively, charge related to an inventory step-up adjustment, and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, for $0 and $11.8 million, respectively; (ii) the three- and nine-months ended September 29, 2018, for $3.8 million and $37.9 million, respectively, for transaction related costs, and the three- and nine-months ended September 30, 2017, for $0 and $37.9 million, respectively. Due to the net loss for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 29, 2018, and for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017, 0 incremental shares, 0.1 million incremental shares and 0.2 million incremental shares, respectively, from share-based compensation arrangements were excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding, in both periods, because their effect would be anti-dilutive. The pro forma amounts do not include any potential synergies, cost savings or other expected benefits of the acquisition, are presented for illustrative purposes only, and are not necessarily indicative of results that would have been achieved had the acquisition occurred as of January 1, 2017, or of future operating performance.
