For the fiscal quarter, organic net sales were consistent with prior year due to the following items: (1)

  • Volume increases in the Battery & Lights segment driven by improved category trends and new distribution globally which resulted in 1.3% organic growth; and
  • Volume increases in the Auto Care segment resulted in organic growth of 0.5% from distribution gains and early holiday sales, partially offset by timing of refrigerant sales that benefited the third quarter.
  • These volume increases were offset by pricing declines of 1.8% driven by planned strategic pricing and promotional investments in the period.

For the fiscal year, organic net sales decreased 2.2% due to the following items: (1)

  • The Battery & Lights segment experienced volume declines of approximately 0.7% primarily due to the timing of holiday orders compared to the prior year, which benefited the fourth quarter of 2023, partially offset by distribution gains and improved category trends; and
  • Pricing declines of 2.2%, primarily within the Battery & Lights segment, driven by planned strategic pricing and promotional investments in the period.
  • Offsetting these declines was increased Auto Care segment volumes of 0.7% largely driven by distribution gains in the period.

Gross Margin

Gross margin percentage on a reported basis for the fourth fiscal quarter was 38.1%, versus 37.9% in the prior year quarter. Excluding the current and prior year restructuring costs and the current year network transition costs and integration costs, Adjusted Gross margin was 42.2%, up 220 basis points from the prior year quarter and 70 basis points from the third fiscal quarter of 2024.(1)

Adjusted Gross margin improvement in the fourth fiscal quarter was driven by both Project Momentum initiatives, which delivered savings of approximately $18 million, as well as lower input costs, including improved commodity and material pricing. These benefits were partially offset by the planned strategic pricing and promotional investments noted above.

Adjusted Gross margin improvement in fiscal 2024 was driven by both Project Momentum initiatives, which delivered savings of approximately $59 million, as well as lower input costs, including improved commodities pricing and lower ocean freight. These benefits were partially offset by the planned strategic pricing and promotional investments noted above.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense (SG&A)

SG&A for the fourth fiscal quarter was 15.3% of net sales, or $123.0 million, as compared to 14.2% of net sales, or $115.5 million, in the prior year when excluding restructuring and related costs, acquisition and integration costs and a litigation matter. The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by an increase in labor and benefit costs, higher travel expense, increased depreciation expense related to our digital transformation initiatives and increased legal fees. This increase was partially offset by savings from Project Momentum of approximately $7 million.(1) 

SG&A for fiscal 2024 was $473.1 million, or 16.4% of net sales, as compared to $459.4 million, or 15.5% of net sales, in the prior year when excluding restructuring and related costs, acquisition and integration costs, and a litigation matter. The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by an increase in labor and benefit costs, higher travel expense, increased depreciation expense related to our digital transformation initiatives and increased legal, factoring and environmental fees. This increase was partially offset by Project Momentum savings of approximately $29 million in the period.(1) 

Advertising and Promotion Expense (A&P)

A&P was 4.6% of net sales for the fourth fiscal quarter and 5.0% of net sales for fiscal 2024. A&P spending in the prior year was 4.1% for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2023 and 4.8% for fiscal 2023. For the quarter, this was an increase of 50 basis points, or $4.5 million and for fiscal 2024 this was an increase of 20 basis points or $1.4 million.

The increase in net earnings in the fourth fiscal quarter was driven by the prior year settlement charge on the US pension plan annuity buy out of $50.2 million of previously unamortized actuarial losses. The decrease in net earnings in the fiscal year was driven by the current year non-cash pre-tax impairment charge of $110.6 million compared to no impairments in fiscal 2023 as well as the Argentina devaluation recorded in the current fiscal year, partially offset by the prior year US pension plan annuity buy out.

For the fourth fiscal quarter, the increase in Adjusted earnings per share and Adjusted EBITDA reflects an increase in Gross margin due to Project Momentum savings, partially offset by higher SG&A and A&P spending as well as unfavorable currency in the current year. Adjusted earnings per share further benefited from lower interest expense as the Company's overall debt balance has decreased, partially offset by increased tax expense.

For the full year, Adjusted net earnings per share and Adjusted EBITDA reflects the Gross margin improvement as well as decreased R&D spend. This was partially offset by higher A&P and SG&A spend and the unfavorable currency movement in the full year. Adjusted earnings per share further benefited from lower interest expense as the Company's overall debt balance has decreased and lower amortization expense, partially offset by increased tax expense.

For the quarter, currency had an unfavorable pre-tax impact of $3.7 million, or $0.04 per share, and for fiscal 2024, currency had an unfavorable pre-tax impact of $2.5 million, or $0.03 per share.

Capital Allocation

  • Operating cash flow for the quarter was $168.9 million and for fiscal 2024 was $429.6 million. Fiscal year 2024 free cash flow was $339.0 million, or 11.7% of Net Sales.
  • The Company completed two acquisitions in fiscal 2024 including the acquisition of battery manufacturing equipment, raw materials and a leased facility in Belgium for $11.6 million in the first fiscal quarter and an Auto Care appearance and fragrance manufacturer and distributor based in Southern Brazil for $10.6 million during the third fiscal quarter.
  • The Company paid down an additional $50 million of debt in the fourth quarter and $200 million in fiscal 2024. In fiscal 2024, Net debt decreased by $138.5 million and Net debt to Adjusted EBITDA was 4.9 times as of September 30, 2024, down from 5.2 times as of September 30, 2023.
  • The Company paid dividends in the quarter of $21.6 million, or $0.30 per common share. Dividend payments for the year were $87.4 million, or $1.20 per common share.
  • The Board has approved a new share repurchase program for up to 7.5 million shares. This replaced the prior authorization that was outstanding.

Financial Outlook and Assumptions for Fiscal 2025 (1)

In fiscal 2024, the Company was successful in achieving its priorities of restoring gross margin, generating healthy free cash flow, and reducing debt. As we move into fiscal 2025, the Company expects to continue to execute against those priorities while growing our Adjusted EBITDA and EPS.

For fiscal 2025, we expect organic revenue to be up 1% to 2%.  The increase in revenues as well as implementing the last year of our Project Momentum initiatives are expected to drive an increase in Adjusted EBITDA. For fiscal 2025, Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $625 million to $645 million, and Adjusted earnings per share is expected to be in the range of $3.45 to $3.65. For the first quarter, we expect organic revenue to be up 2% to 3% and Adjusted earnings per share to be in the range of $0.60 to $0.65.

Supplemental Schedules
Introduction to the Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures
For the Quarter and Twelve Months ended September 30, 2024

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP").  However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide users with additional meaningful comparisons to the corresponding historical or future period, and are used for management incentive compensation. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude items that are not reflective of the Company's on-going operating performance, such as impairment of intangible assets, restructuring and related costs, network transition costs, acquisition and integration costs, a litigation matter, the loss/(gain) on extinguishment of debt, the December 2023 Argentina Economic Reform and the settlement loss on US pension annuity buyout. In addition, these measures help investors to analyze year over year comparability when excluding currency fluctuations as well as other Company initiatives that are not on-going.  We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are an enhancement to assist investors in understanding our business and in performing analysis consistent with financial models developed by research analysts. Investors should consider non-GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, the comparable GAAP measures. In addition, these non-GAAP measures may not be the same as similar measures used by other companies due to possible differences in methods and in the items being adjusted.

We provide the following non-GAAP measures and calculations, as well as the corresponding reconciliation to the closest GAAP measure in the following supplemental schedules:

Organic.  This is the non-GAAP financial measurement of the change in revenue or segment profit that excludes or otherwise adjusts for the change in Argentina operations and impact of currency from the changes in foreign currency exchange rates as defined below:

Change in Argentina Operations. The Company is presenting separately all changes in sales and segment profit from our Argentina affiliate due to the designation of the economy as highly inflationary as of July 1, 2018.

Impact of currency. The Company evaluates the operating performance of our Company on a currency neutral basis. The Impact of Currency is the change in foreign currency exchange rates year-over-year on reported results, which is calculated by comparing the value of current year foreign operations at the current period USD exchange rate versus the value of current year foreign operations at the prior period USD exchange rate. The impact of currency also includes gains/(losses) of currency hedging programs, and it excludes hyper-inflationary markets.

Adjusted Comparisons.  Detail for adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted SG&A and adjusted SG&A as percent of sales and adjusted Other items, net are also supplemental non-GAAP measure disclosures. These measures exclude the impact of restructuring and related costs, network transition costs, acquisition and integration costs, a litigation matter, the December 2023 Argentina Economic Reform and the settlement loss on US pension annuity buyout.

Adjusted EBITDA further excludes the impact of the costs related to restructuring, network transition costs, a litigation matter, the December 2023 Argentina Economic Reform, the settlement loss on US pension annuity buyout, impairment of intangible assets, acquisition and integration costs, and share based payments.

Free Cash Flow. Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities reduced by capital expenditures, net of the proceeds from asset sales.

Net Debt. Net Debt is defined as total Company debt, less cash and cash equivalents.

Currency-neutral. Currency-neutral excludes the Impact of currency as defined above on key measures. Hyper inflationary markets are excluded from this calculation.
