Performance Food Group Company (“PFG” or the “Company”) (NYSE: PFGC) today announced its third-quarter and first-nine months fiscal 2022 business results.

“PFG again delivered strong results in the fiscal third quarter as our company builds on the strength of all three operating segments,” said George Holm, PFG’s Chairman & Chief Executive Officer. “Our independent restaurant business kept its strong momentum, growing organic case volume by double digits even as we begin to lap a better operating environment in the year-ago period. The integration of Core-Mark continues to meet or exceed our expectations, and new business wins support our long-term vision for accelerating sales and profit growth in the convenience business. Vistar is experiencing very strong profit performance, and we are increasingly confident in a recovery as the theater and office coffee channels show signs of improvement. We have delivered these results while maintaining a strong financial position and generating solid cash flow. As a result, we are increasing our full year financial guidance and believe we now have a path to $1 billion of Adjusted EBITDA in the current fiscal year.”

Third-Quarter Fiscal 2022 Financial Summary

Total case volume increased 35.3% for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to the prior year period. Total case volume included Core-Mark Holding Company, Inc. (“Core-Mark”) and a 13.7% increase in organic independent cases. Organic case volume increased 8.3% in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to the prior year period.

Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 grew 81.6% to $13.1 billion compared to the prior year period. The increase in net sales was primarily attributable to the acquisition of Core-Mark, an increase in selling price per case as a result of inflation, and the declining adverse effects of the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic, which had a more significant adverse impact in the third quarter of the prior year. The acquisition of Core-Mark contributed $4.1 billion of net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2022. Overall cost inflation for the Company was approximately 13.6%.

Gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 grew 61.6% to $1.3 billion compared to the prior year period. The gross profit increase was led by the acquisition of Core-Mark and an increase in gross profit per case in Foodservice driven by growth in the independent channel. The Core-Mark acquisition contributed gross profit of $243.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2022.

Operating expenses rose 57.8% to $1.3 billion in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to the prior year period. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to the acquisition of Core-Mark, which contributed $216.6 million of operating expenses in the third quarter of fiscal 2022. Operating expenses also increased as a result of an increase in case volume and the resulting impact on variable operational and selling expenses, as well as an increase in personnel expenses. In the third quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company experienced a $16.0 million increase in temporary contract labor costs, including travel expenses associated with contract workers, compared to the prior year period as a result of the current labor market's impact on the Company's ability to hire and retain qualified labor. Additionally, the Company had increases in workers' compensation and automobile insurance expense and fuel expenses due to higher fuel prices compared to the prior year period.

Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 increased 407.9% year-over-year to $23.4 million. The increase was primarily a result of the $45.2 million increase in operating profit, partially offset by a $15.1 million increase in income tax expense. The effective tax rate in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 was approximately 31.3% compared to 37.1% in the third quarter of fiscal 2021. The effective tax rate for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 differed from the prior year period due to the increase of state taxes and non-deductible expense as a percentage of book income and the decrease in deductible discrete items related to stock-based compensation as a percentage of book income.

EBITDA increased 92.8% to $204.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to the prior year period. For the quarter, Adjusted EBITDA rose 96.3% to $237.9 million compared to the prior year period.

Diluted EPS increased 350.0% to $0.15 per share in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to the prior year period. Adjusted Diluted EPS increased 168.4% to $0.51 per share in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to the prior year period.

First-Nine Months Fiscal 2022 Financial Summary

Total case volume increased 34.0% in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 compared to the prior year period. Total case volume included Core-Mark and an 18.5% increase in organic independent cases. Organic total case volume increased 13.9% in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 compared to the prior year period.

Net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 was $36.3 billion, an increase of 72.1% versus the comparable prior year period. The increase in net sales was primarily attributable to the acquisition of Core-Mark, an increase in selling price per case as a result of inflation, and the declining adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, which had a more significant adverse impact in the first nine months of the prior year. The acquisition of Core-Mark contributed $9.9 billion of net sales since the acquisition date. Overall cost inflation for the Company was approximately 11.2%.

Gross profit for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 increased 53.2% to $3.8 billion compared to the prior year period. The gross profit increase was led by the acquisition of Core-Mark and an increase in gross profit per case in Foodservice driven by growth in the independent channel. The Core-Mark acquisition contributed gross profit of $577.4 million since the acquisition date, which includes $8.8 million of amortization of the step up in fair value of inventory acquired.

Operating expenses increased 53.6% to $3.6 billion in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 compared to the prior year period. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to the acquisition of Core-Mark, which contributed $512.0 million of operating expenses since the acquisition date. Operating expenses also increased as a result of an increase in case volume and the resulting impact on variable operational and selling expenses, as well as an increase in personnel expenses. In the first nine months of fiscal 2022, the Company experienced a $102.3 million increase in temporary contract labor costs, including travel expenses associated with contract workers, compared to the prior year period, as a result of the current labor market's impact on the Company's ability to hire and retain qualified labor. Additionally, the Company had increases in workers' compensation and automobile insurance expense, professional fees, and fuel expenses due to higher fuel prices compared to the prior year period.

Net income increased 292.5% to $36.5 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily a result of the $54.5 million increase in operating profit, partially offset by a $21.1 million increase in interest expense. The effective tax rate in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 was approximately 28.4% compared to 14.2% in the first nine months of fiscal 2021. The effective tax rate differed from the prior year period due to the increase of state taxes and non-deductible expense as a percentage of book income and the decrease in deductible discrete items related to stock-based compensation as a percentage of book income.

EBITDA increased 41.2% to $525.3 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 compared to the prior year period. For the first nine months of fiscal 2022 Adjusted EBITDA increased 59.9% to $662.7 million compared to the prior year period.

Cash Flow and Capital Spending

In the first nine months of fiscal 2022, PFG provided $390.6 million in cash flow from operating activities compared to $173.1 million of cash flow provided by operating activities in the prior year period. The increase in cash flow from operating activities was largely driven by improvements in working capital in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 and the prior year payment of $117.3 million of contingent consideration related to the acquisition of Eby-Brown Company LLC. For the first nine months of fiscal 2022, PFG invested $140.8 million in capital expenditures, an increase of $21.9 million versus the prior year period. During the first nine months of fiscal 2022, PFG delivered free cash flow of $249.8 million compared to free cash flow of $54.2 million in the prior year period.1

Third-Quarter Fiscal 2022 Segment Results

In the second quarter of fiscal 2022, PFG changed its operating segments to reflect the manner in which the business is managed. Based on the Company’s organization structure and how the Company’s management reviews operating results and makes decisions about resource allocation, the Company now has three reportable segments: Foodservice, Vistar and Convenience.

Foodservice

Third-quarter net sales for Foodservice increased 27.3% to $6.6 billion compared to the prior year period. This increase in net sales was driven by growth in cases sold due to the declining adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the restaurant industry, and an increase in selling price per case as a result of inflation. Overall product cost inflation for Foodservice was approximately 19.2% for the third quarter of fiscal 2022. Securing new and expanding business with independent customers resulted in organic independent case growth of approximately 13.7% for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to the prior year period. For the third quarter of fiscal 2022, independent sales as a percentage of total segment sales were 37.6%.

Third-quarter EBITDA for Foodservice increased 22.6% to $169.6 million compared to the prior year period. Gross profit increased 27.3% in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to the prior year period driven by an increase in the gross profit per case, as well as an increase in cases sold. The increase in gross profit per case was driven by a favorable shift in the mix of cases sold to independent customers, including more Performance Brands products sold to our independent customers. Operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, for Foodservice increased 28.5% for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to the prior year period as a result of an increase in case volume and the resulting impact on variable operational and selling expenses, as well as an increase in personnel expenses, including temporary contract labor costs and the associated travel expenses. The increase in operating expenses was also driven by increases in fuel expense and workers' compensation and automobile insurance expenses.

Vistar

For the third quarter of fiscal 2022, net sales for Vistar increased 51.1% to $892.2 million compared to the prior year period. This increase was driven primarily by the declining adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the channels Vistar serves.

Third-quarter EBITDA for Vistar increased 222.1% to $48.0 million versus the prior year period. The increase was the result of a 61.0% increase in gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to the prior year period, partially offset by a 31.0% increase in operating expenses. Operating expenses increased primarily as a result of increased sales volume described above, and the resulting impact on variable operational and selling expenses. Operating expenses also increased as a result of increases in personnel expense and fuel expense.

Convenience

Third-quarter net sales for Convenience increased 292.9% to $5.6 billion compared to the prior year period. Net sales related to cigarettes for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 was $3,522.2 million, which includes $981.6 million related to tobacco excise taxes, compared to net sales of cigarettes of $1,003.8 million, which includes $276.9 million of tobacco excise taxes for the prior year period. The increase in net sales was primarily attributable to the acquisition of Core-Mark, which contributed $4,149.6 million of net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2022.

Third-quarter EBITDA for Convenience increased 2,035.0% to $42.7 million compared to the prior year period. Gross profit growth of 436.9% for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to the prior year period was fueled by the Core-Mark acquisition, which contributed gross profit of $243.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2022. The increase in gross profit was partially offset by increase of operating expenses primarily as a result of the Core-Mark acquisition, which contributed an additional $214.0 million of operating expenses in the third quarter of fiscal 2022, excluding depreciation and amortization, along with increases in personnel and fuel expenses.

Fiscal 2022 Outlook

For the full fiscal year 2022, PFG now expects net sales to be in a range of $50.5 billion to $51 billion and Adjusted EBITDA to be in a range of $990 million to $1 billion. PFG had previously expected net sales to be in a range of $50 billion to $51 billion and Adjusted EBITDA to be in a range of $970 million to $990 million. This outlook includes the impact of 10 months of Core-Mark’s business results.

PFG’s Adjusted EBITDA outlook excludes the impact of certain income and expense items that management believes are not part of underlying operations. These items may include, but are not limited to, loss on early extinguishment of debt, restructuring charges, certain tax items, and charges associated with non-recurring professional and legal fees associated with acquisitions. PFG’s management cannot estimate on a forward-looking basis the impact of these income and expense items on its reported net income, which could be significant, are difficult to predict and may be highly variable. As a result, PFG does not provide a reconciliation to the closest corresponding GAAP financial measure for its Adjusted EBITDA outlook. Please see the “Forward-Looking Statements” section of this release for a discussion of certain risks to PFG’s outlook.

Statement Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This earnings release and the accompanying financial statement tables include several financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Diluted EPS. Such measures are not recognized terms under GAAP, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, and are not indicative of net income as determined under GAAP. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Diluted EPS and other non-GAAP financial measures have limitations that should be considered before using these measures to evaluate PFG’s liquidity or financial performance. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Diluted EPS, as presented, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because of varying methods of calculation.

Management measures operating performance based on PFG’s EBITDA, defined as net income before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization.

PFG believes that the presentation of EBITDA enhances an investor’s understanding of PFG’s performance. PFG believes this measure is a useful metric to assess PFG’s operating performance from period to period by excluding certain items that PFG believes are not representative of PFG’s core business. PFG also uses this measure to evaluate the performance of its segments and for business planning purposes.

In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA, defined as net income before interest expense, interest income, income and franchise taxes, and depreciation and amortization, further adjusted to exclude certain items we do not consider part of our core operating results. Such adjustments include certain unusual, non-cash, non-recurring, cost reduction and other adjustment items permitted in calculating covenant compliance under the PFG’s credit agreement and indenture (other than certain pro forma adjustments permitted under our credit agreement and indenture relating to the Adjusted EBITDA contribution of acquired entities or businesses prior to the acquisition date). Under PFG’s credit agreement and indenture, PFG’s ability to engage in certain activities such as incurring certain additional indebtedness, making certain investments, and making restricted payments is tied to ratios based on Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreement and indenture).

Management also uses Adjusted Diluted EPS, which is calculated by adjusting the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure by excluding the same items excluded in PFG’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, as well as amortization of intangible assets, to the extent that each such item was included in the applicable GAAP financial measure. For business combinations, the Company generally allocates a portion of the purchase price to intangible assets and such intangible assets contribute to revenue generation. The amount of the allocation is based on estimates and assumptions made by management and is subject to amortization over the useful lives of the intangible assets. The amount of the purchase price from an acquisition allocated to intangible assets and the term of its related amortization can vary significantly and are unique to each acquisition, and thus the Company does not believe it is reflective of ongoing operations. Intangible asset amortization excluded from Adjusted Diluted EPS represents the entire amount recorded within the Company’s GAAP financial statements and the revenue generated by the associated intangible assets has not been excluded from Adjusted Diluted EPS. Intangible asset amortization is excluded from Adjusted Diluted EPS because the amortization, unlike the related revenue, is not affected by operations of any particular period unless an intangible asset becomes impaired, or the estimated useful life of an intangible asset is revised.

Management also uses Free Cash Flow, which is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures (purchases of property, plant and equipment). PFG also believes that the presentation of Free Cash Flow enhances an investor’s understanding of PFG’s ability to make strategic investments and manage debt levels.

PFG believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Diluted EPS is useful to investors because these metrics provide insight into underlying business trends and year-over-year results and are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of the operating performance of companies in PFG’s industry.

The following tables include a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the applicable most comparable GAAP financial measures.

Segment Results

In the second quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company changed its operating segments to reflect the manner in which the business is managed. Based on the Company’s organization structure and how the Company’s management reviews operating results and makes decisions about resource allocation, the Company now has three reportable segments: Foodservice, Vistar, and Convenience.

Management evaluates the performance of these segments based on their respective sales growth and EBITDA. Corporate & All Other is comprised of corporate overhead and certain operations that are not considered separate reportable segments based on their size. This includes the operations of our internal logistics unit responsible for managing and allocating inbound logistics revenue and expense. Beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, this also includes the operating results from certain recent acquisitions.

The presentation and amounts for the three and nine months ended March 27, 2021 have been restated to reflect the segment changes described above.

The following tables set forth net sales and EBITDA by segment for the periods indicated (dollars in millions):
