This report and the exhibit attached hereto contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934). Such statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual events and results to differ materially from such statements. Further, forward looking statements are intended to speak only as of the date on which they are made, and we disclaim any duty to update such statements to reflect any changes in management’s expectations or any change in the assumptions or circumstances on which such statements are based, whether due to new information, future events, or otherwise. Forward-looking statements are statements that include projections, expectations, or beliefs about future events or results or otherwise are not statements of historical fact. Such statements are often but not always characterized by qualifying words such as “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” and their derivatives, and include but are not limited to statements about expectations, projections, or trends for our future operations, strategic initiatives and plans, production levels, new product launches, sales, profit margins, profitability, operating income, capital expenditures, working capital levels, cost savings, income taxes, SG&A or other expenses, pre-tax income, earnings, cash flow, and other performance or liquidity measures, as well as any statements regarding dividends, share repurchases, liquidity, uses of cash and cash requirements, borrowing capacity, investments, potential acquisitions, future economic or industry trends, public health epidemics, or future developments. There can be no assurance that we will realize these expectations or meet our guidance, or that these beliefs will prove correct.

Factors that could influence the matters discussed in such statements include the level of housing starts and sales of existing homes, consumer confidence, trends in disposable income, and general economic conditions. Decreases in these economic indicators could have a negative effect on our business and prospects. Likewise, increases in interest rates, particularly home mortgage rates, and increases in consumer debt or the general rate of inflation, could affect us adversely. The future performance of our business depends in part on our success in conducting and finalizing acquisition negotiations and integrating acquired businesses into our existing operations. Changes in consumer tastes or preferences toward products not produced by us could erode demand for our products. Changes in tariffs or trade policy, including changes in U.S. trade enforcement priorities, or changes in the value of the U.S. dollar versus other currencies, could affect our financial results because a significant portion of our operations are located outside the United States. Strengthening of the U.S. dollar against other currencies could make our products less competitive on the basis of price in markets outside the United States, and strengthening of currencies in Canada and China can have a negative impact on our sales of products produced in those places. In addition, because our foreign operations use the U.S. dollar as their functional currency, changes in the exchange rate between the local currency of those operations and the U.S dollar can affect our reported profits from those foreign operations. Also, economic or political instability in international areas could affect our operations or sources of goods in those areas, as well as demand for our products in international markets. The impact of public health epidemics on employees, customers, suppliers, and the global economy, such as the global coronavirus pandemic currently affecting countries around the world, could also adversely affect our operations and financial performance. In addition, the impact of potential asset impairments, including impairments of property, plant, and equipment, inventory, or intanbile assets, as well as the impact of valuation allowances applied against our net deferred income tax assets, could affect our financial results. Increases in freight costs, labor costs, and raw material prices, including increases in market prices for petrochemical products, can also significantly affect the prices we pay for shipping, labor, and raw materials, respectively, and in turn, increase our operating costs and decrease our profitability. Finally, disruption in our customers’ supply chains for non-fabric components may cause declines in new orders and/or delayed shipping of existing orders while our customers wait for other components, which could adversely affect our financial results. Further information about these factors, as well as other factors that could affect our future operations or financial results and the matters discussed in forward-looking statements, is included in Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our most recent Form 10-K and Form 10-Q reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. A forward-looking statement is neither a prediction nor a guarantee of future events or circumstances, and those future events or circumstances may not occur. Additional risks and uncertainties that we do not presently know about or that we currently consider to be immaterial may also affect our business operations and financial results.

Item 2.02 – Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On August 30, 2023, we issued a news release to announce our financial results for our first quarter ended July 30, 2023. A copy of the news release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

The information set forth in this Item 2.02 of this Current Report, and in Exhibit 99.1, is intended to be “furnished” under Item 2.02 of Form 8-K. Such information shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

The news release contains adjusted income statement information for the three-month period ending July 30, 2023, which discloses adjusted loss from operations, a non-GAAP performance measure that eliminates items which are not expected to occur on a recurring or regular basis. These include, for the period presented, restructuring related charges and restructuring expense associated with the discontinued production of cut and sewn upholstery kits in Ouanaminthe, Haiti. The company has included this adjusted information in order to show operational performance excluding the effects of items not expected to occur on a recurring or regular basis. Details of these calculations and a reconciliation to information from our GAAP financial statements are set forth in the news release. Management believes this presentation aids in the comparison of financial results among comparable financial periods. Management uses adjusted income statement information in evaluating the financial performance of our overall operations and business segments. Also, adjusted income statement information is used as a performance measure in our incentive-based executive compensation program. We note, however, that this adjusted income statement information should not be viewed in isolation or as a substitute for loss from operations calculated in accordance with GAAP.

The news release contains disclosures about free cash flow, a non-GAAP liquidity measure that we define as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, less cash capital expenditures and payments on vendor-financed capital expenditures, plus any proceeds from sale of property, plant, and equipment, plus proceeds from note receivable, plus proceeds from the sale of long-term investments associated with our rabbi trust, less the purchase of long-term investments associated with our rabbi trust, and plus or minus the effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents, in each case to the extent any such amount is incurred during the period presented. Details of these calculations and a reconciliation to information from our GAAP financial statements are set forth in the news release. Management believes the disclosure of free cash flow provides useful information to investors because it measures our available cash flow for potential debt repayment, stock repurchases, dividends, additions to cash and investments, or other corporate purposes. We note, however, that not all of the company’s free cash flow is available for discretionary spending, as we may have mandatory debt payments and other cash requirements that must be deducted from our cash available for future use. In operating our business, management uses free cash flow to make decisions about what commitments of cash to make for operations, such as capital expenditures (and possible financing arrangements for these expenditures), purchases of inventory or supplies, SG&A expenditure levels, compensation, and other commitments of cash, while still allowing for adequate cash to meet known future commitments for cash, such as debt repayment, and also for making decisions about dividend payments and share repurchases.

The news release contains disclosures about our Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP performance measure that reflects net (loss) income excluding income tax expense (benefit), net interest income, and restructuring expense and restructuring related charges, as well as depreciation and amortization expense, and stock-based compensation expense. This measure also excludes other non-recurring charges and credits associated with our business, if and to the extent any such amount is incurred during the period presented. Details of these calculations and a reconciliation to information from our GAAP financial statements are set forth in the news release. We believe presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because earnings before interest income and expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and similar performance measures that exclude certain charges from earnings, are often used by investors and financial analysts in evaluating and comparing companies in our industry. We note, however, that such measures are not defined uniformly by various companies, with differing expenses being excluded from net income to calculate these performance measures. For this reason, Adjusted EBITDA should not be viewed in isolation by investors and should not be used as a substitute for net income calculated in accordance with GAAP, nor should it be used for direct comparisons with similarly titled performance measures reported by other companies. Use of Adjusted EBITDA as an analytical tool has limitations in that this measure does not reflect all expenses that are necessary to fund and operate our business, including funds required to pay taxes, service our debt, and fund capital expenditures, among others. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to help it analyze the company’s earnings and operating performance, by excluding the effects of expenses that depend upon capital structure and debt level, tax

3


 

provisions, and non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation expense that do not require immediate uses of cash.

The news release contains disclosures about return on capital for both the entire company and for individual business segments. We define return on capital as adjusted operating income (loss) (measured on a trailing twelve-month basis) divided by average capital employed (excluding intangible assets related to acquisitions at the divisional level only). Adjusted operating income (loss) excludes certain charges or credits that are not expected to occur on a recurring or regular basis, if applicable for the period presented. Average capital employed is calculated over rolling five fiscal periods, depending on which quarter is being presented. Details of these calculations and a reconciliation to information from our GAAP financial statements are set forth in the news release. We believe return on capital is an accepted measure of earnings efficiency in relation to capital employed, but it is a non-GAAP performance measure that is not defined or calculated in the same manner by all companies. This measure should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income or other performance measures, but we believe it provides useful information to investors by comparing the adjusted operating income we produce to the net asset base used to generate that income. Also, adjusted operating income on a trailing twelve-months basis does not necessarily indicate results that would be expected for the full fiscal year or for the following twelve months. We note that, particularly for return on capital measured at the segment level, not all assets and expenses are allocated to our operating segments, and there are assets and expenses at the corporate (unallocated) level that may provide support to a segment’s operations and yet are not included in the assets and expenses used to calculate that segment’s return on capital. Thus, the average return on capital for the company’s segments will generally be different from the company’s overall return on capital. Management uses return on capital to evaluate the company’s earnings efficiency and the relative performance of its segments.

CULP ANNOUNCES RESULTS FOR FIRST QUARTER FISCAL 2024,

WITH BETTER-THAN-EXPECTED OPERATING IMPROVEMENT AND

CONTINUED SOLID FINANCIAL POSITION

 

 

HIGH POINT, N.C. (August 30, 2023) ─ Culp, Inc. (NYSE: CULP) (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “CULP”) today reported financial and operating results for the first quarter ended July 30, 2023.

 

Fiscal 2024 First Quarter Financial Summary

 

Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 were $56.7 million, down 9.5 percent compared with the prior-year period, with mattress fabrics sales flat, down 0.5 percent (a solid performance in the face of industry softness), and upholstery fabrics sales down 17.4 percent compared to a strong quarter the prior year (fueled by a lift in sales following pandemic-related shutdowns in China).
Loss from operations was $(3.1) million, which included $517,000 in mostly non-cash restructuring and related charges associated with the discontinued production of cut and sewn upholstery kits in Haiti during the quarter.
Excluding this $517,000, adjusted loss from operations for the quarter was $(2.6) million, a better-than-expected improvement as compared with loss from operations of $(4.7) million for the prior-year period and loss from operations of $(4.0) million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. (See reconciliation table at the back of this press release.)
Net loss was $(3.3) million, or $(0.27) per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $(5.7) million, or $(0.47) per diluted share, for the prior-year period. Net loss for the quarter included the $517,000 in restructuring and related charges noted above. The effective tax rate for the first quarter was negative (26.5) percent, reflecting the company’s mix of taxable income between its U.S. and foreign jurisdictions during the period.
The company maintained a solid balance sheet, with total cash of $16.8 million and no outstanding borrowings as of July 30, 2023. Total liquidity as of July 30, 2023, was $42.3 million (consisting of $16.8 million in cash and $25.5 million in borrowing availability under the company's domestic credit facility).
Adjusted EBITDA for the period was close to break even at negative $(416,000), as compared to adjusted EBITDA of negative $(2.7) million for the prior-year period.

 

CEO Commentary

 

Commenting on the results, Iv Culp, president and chief executive officer of Culp, Inc., said, “We are pleased to report better than expected improvement in our operating performance for the first quarter, as we are continuing our aggressive business transformation. As expected, our top-line performance was impacted by the difficult macro-economic environment that continues to pressure the industries we service. However, our operating performance improved despite this pressure on sales, driven by internal improvements in both businesses. In our mattress fabrics segment, we continue to gain market position with the roll out of new fabric and sewn cover placements that are priced in line with current costs. This segment also achieved a 52 percent improvement in its operating results as compared to the prior-year period, and a 45 percent improvement as compared sequentially to the prior quarter. These gains were driven by our ongoing focus on operational efficiencies and cost reduction initiatives across our locations. For the upholstery fabrics segment, we saw operational improvements and fixed cost savings, along with solid demand in our hospitality/contract business, including

improvement for Read Window. However, sales in our residential fabrics business were lower as compared to the first quarter of last fiscal year, which was a strong quarter, due to the ongoing demand softness affecting the home furnishings industry.

 

“We also continued our diligent focus on prudent financial management, including maintaining a strong balance sheet and ensuring a strategic level of working capital. We ended the quarter with $16.8 million in cash and no outstanding borrowings. We believe we are well positioned, and we are strategically investing in our business, especially within our mattress fabrics segment, to support future profitable sales growth and further improve operating efficiencies.

 

“Understanding that the furniture and bedding macro-environment remains challenged, we continue to manage the aspects of our business we can control, taking necessary steps to withstand current market conditions and position our business for renewed growth. We believe this recovery will be led by our mattress fabrics segment, where our ongoing execution of a comprehensive business transformation plan is laying the foundation for steady, sequential improvement in this business. Although market conditions are pressuring the residential home furnishings industry, it is important to note that our upholstery fabrics business has maintained consistent profitability despite these market pressures, and demand remains solid in our growing hospitality business. We also further rationalized our upholstery cut and sew operation in Haiti during the quarter by discontinuing production of cut and sewn upholstery kits from this platform. This move, which was driven by ongoing demand softness for residential upholstery kits, allows us to further reduce our cost structure while utilizing our strong Asian (China and Vietnam) supply chain to support the needs of our customers.

 

“While the difficult industry environment affecting the mattress and residential home furnishings industries is expected to continue for some time, our market position is strong and improving, and we believe we are poised for a considerably better second half performance, with a return to operating profitability in fiscal 2024. Regardless of the current demand backdrop, we expect continued progress in improving our operating results, especially in our mattress fabrics segment, but the speed of our recovery may be affected by overall industry trends. We are well positioned for the long term, and our strong leadership teams, innovative product offerings, creative designs, and resilient global manufacturing and sourcing platform will support us into the future, especially when the industry environment improves,” added Culp.

 

Business Segment Highlights

 

Mattress Fabrics Segment (“CHF”) Summary

 

Sales for this segment were $29.2 million for the first quarter, down 0.5 percent compared with sales of $29.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023.

 

Sales for the quarter were affected by ongoing industry demand softness, with mattress industry analysis reflecting significant contraction (10 percent in dollars, 20 percent in units) in the domestic mattress market through the first six months of calendar 2023. Notably, CHF revenue over the same general period has remained relatively flat, indicating that CHF has made gains with customers in a difficult market environment.

 

Operating loss was $(1.4) million for the first quarter, a 52 percent improvement compared to the $(2.9) million operating loss in the prior-year period. Operating performance as compared to the prior-year period was positively affected by new placements priced in line with current costs, improvement in operating efficiencies, and lower costs resulting from the restructuring and rationalization of CHF's cut and sew mattress cover platform in North Carolina initiated during the second quarter of fiscal 2023.

 

Upholstery Fabrics Segment (“CUF”) Summary

 

Sales for this segment were $27.4 million for the first quarter, down 17.4 percent compared with sales of $33.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023, which was a strong quarter due to a lift in sales following pandemic-related shutdowns in China.

 

Sales for CUF's residential fabric business for the quarter were affected by ongoing softness in the residential home furnishings industry, where demand remains pressured by a challenging

-MORE-

macro-economic environment. Demand remained solid for CUF’s hospitality/contract business during the quarter, with sales for this business accounting for approximately 33 percent of CUF's total sales.

 

Operating income and operating margin were $1.3 million and 4.8 percent, a 145 percent and 320 basis points improvement, respectively, compared with the prior-year period. Operating performance for the first quarter, as compared to the prior-year period, was positively affected by a higher contribution from hospitality fabrics and the Read Window business; lower costs resulting from the restructuring of CUF's cut and sew platforms during earlier periods; and a more favorable foreign exchange rate associated with CUF's operations in China, as well as other operational improvements. These factors were partially offset by lower residential fabric sales and higher SG&A during the period.

 

Based on continued demand softness for residential upholstery kits, as well as the strength of CUF's Asian platform, CUF took action during the quarter to discontinue production of cut and sewn upholstery kits in Haiti. This step, which follows an earlier rationalization of this platform in fiscal 2023, resulted in $517,000 in restructuring and related charges during the quarter. CUF took this initiative to further reduce its cost structure and avoid losses that would have otherwise been incurred, while continuing to support customers through its Asian supply chain for cut and sewn kits.

 

Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, and Liquidity

 

As of July 30, 2023, the company reported $16.8 million in total cash and no outstanding debt.

 

Cash flow from operations and free cash flow were negative $(4.4) million and negative $(4.2) million, respectively, for the first three months of fiscal 2024. (See reconciliation table at the back of this press release.) The company’s cash flow from operations and free cash flow during the period were affected by operating losses and investments in working capital and capital expenditures mostly related to the CHF transformation plan.

Capital expenditures for the first three months of fiscal 2024 were $513,000. The company continues to manage capital investments, focusing on projects that will increase efficiencies and improve quality.

 

As of July 30, 2023, the company had approximately $42.3 million in liquidity, consisting of $16.8 million in total cash and $25.5 million in borrowing availability under the company's domestic credit facility.

 

Share Repurchases

 

The company did not repurchase any shares during the first quarter of fiscal 2024, leaving approximately $3.2 million available under the current share repurchase program as of July 30, 2023. Despite the current share repurchase authorization, the company does not expect to repurchase any shares during the second quarter of fiscal 2024.

Financial Outlook

CULP achieved sequential and year-over-year improvement in its operating results for the first quarter of fiscal 2024, although as expected, sales were pressured by ongoing industry demand softness. While the current macroeconomic conditions affecting consumer spending and demand trends are likely to remain for some period, the company remains well-positioned for the long term, especially with the transformation strategy underway in its mattress fabrics division.
Due to the continued volatility in the macro-environment, the company is providing only limited financial guidance for the second quarter of fiscal 2024. The company’s consolidated net sales for the second quarter are expected to be comparable to the second quarter of fiscal 2023, driven by further improvement in the mattress fabrics segment, but offset by lower residential upholstery fabric sales. The company expects a consolidated operating loss (loss from operations) for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 that is in the range of $(2.2) to $(2.6) million, a significant improvement compared to the $(11.9) million operating loss for the prior-year

period (which included approximately $6.0 million relating to certain inventory impairment charges, losses from inventory close out sales, and greater than normal inventory markdowns).
The company’s expectations are based on information available at the time of this press release and reflect certain assumptions by management regarding the company’s business and trends and the projected impact of the ongoing headwinds.

Notes

 

(1) Percent of sales column for income tax expense is calculated as a % of loss before income taxes.

 

(2) Restructuring expense of $338,000 for the three-months ending July 30, 2023, represents a $237,000 impairment charge related mostly to certain machinery and equipment and $101,000 of employee termination benefits related to the discontinuation of production of cut and sewn upholstery kits at our facility in Ouanaminthe, Haiti.

 

(3) See page 11 for our Reconciliation of Selected Income Statement Information to Adjusted Results for the three-months ending July 30, 2023.

Notes

 

(1) See last page of this presentation for calculation.

 

(2) Return on average capital employed represents the twelve-months operating (loss) income as of July 30, 2023, divided by average capital employed. Average capital employed does not include cash and cash equivalents, short-term and long-term investments – Rabbi Trust, income taxes receivable and payable, accrued restructuring, noncurrent deferred income tax assets and liabilities, and current and non-current deferred compensation.

 

(3) Average capital employed was computed using the five quarterly periods ending July 30, 2023, April 30, 2023, January 29, 2023, October 30, 2022, and July 31, 2022.

 

(4) Intangible assets are included in unallocated corporate for all periods presented and therefore, have no effect on capital employed and return on capital employed for our mattress fabrics and upholstery fabrics segments.

(2) Return on average capital employed represents the last twelve-months operating (loss) income as of July 31, 2022, divided by average capital employed. Average capital employed does not include cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments Available-For-Sale, short-term and long-term investments Held-To-Maturity, long-term investments – Rabbi Trust, income taxes receivable and payable, noncurrent deferred income tax assets and liabilities, and deferred compensation.

(3) Average capital employed was computed using the five quarterly periods ending July 31, 2022, May 1, 2022, January 30, 2022, October 31, 2021, and August 1, 2021.

(4) Intangible assets are included in unallocated corporate for all periods presented and therefore, have no effect on capital employed and return on capital employed for our mattress fabrics and upholstery fabrics segments.
