TopBuild Corp. Releases Preliminary
Second Quarter 2015 Financial Highlights
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla., (July 28, 2015) TopBuild Corp. (NYSE: BLD) (the “Company”), the leading installer and distributor of insulation products to the United States construction industry, today announced preliminary results for the second fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2015.
TopBuild is providing certain preliminary results for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 in conjunction with the Form 10-Q filing by Masco Corporation, its former parent company, anticipated today. TopBuild understands that Masco’s Form 10-Q includes certain results for TopBuild as part of Masco’s “discontinued operations” required disclosure under GAAP. TopBuild anticipates that its own detailed financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 will be released on August 11, 2015.
TopBuild cautions that the information for TopBuild’s quarter ended June 30, 2015 included in Masco Corporation’s Form 10-Q may not be consistent with TopBuild’s results for the same period to be released on August 11 due to corporate expense allocations, tax adjustments and other items. Moreover, TopBuild cautions that it has not finalized its financial statement reporting process for the quarter ended June 30, 2015. As a result, the information in this press release is preliminary and based upon information currently available to the Company. During the course of the Company’s reporting process, items may be identified that would require the Company to make adjustments which may be material, and, as a result, the preliminary unaudited financial information in this press release is forward-looking information.
TopBuild’s preliminary results are as follows:
· |
Revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 was up over 5% compared to last year, an increase consistent with “lagged new home construction starts (1)” during the period. |
· |
Gross profit dollars for the second quarter are expected to be relatively flat with the prior year period. Material costs have increased and the flatter than anticipated housing recovery has extended the time required to achieve customer pricing offsets. |
· |
On a year-to-date basis adjusted EBITDA contribution on incremental revenue is expected to be at approximately 20%. |
Jerry Volas, Chief Executive Officer of TopBuild Corp. stated, “We continue to execute against our strategic initiatives as planned. I am pleased with the direction and positioning of our TruTeam and Service Partners businesses and the new home construction market that continues to improve toward more normalized levels. Prospectively, we believe the company will be able to improve alignment between customer pricing and material costs. We look forward to discussing the final results of the quarter and year-to-date on August 11th.”
Note 1 – “Lagged new home construction starts” represent the number of units under construction 90 days after construction began which is typically when insulation is installed in residential units.
