- Dorel Juvenile confident of continued growth
- Dorel Home significantly reduces operating loss
MONTREAL, May 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dorel Industries Inc. (TSX: DII.B, DII.A) today announced results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.
Revenue was US$351.1 million, up 5.4%, from US$333.2 million a year ago. Net loss for the first quarter was US$17.6 million or US$0.54 per diluted share compared with US$31.5 million or US$0.97 per diluted share last year. Adjusted net loss1 was US$16.9 million or US$0.52 per diluted shares versus US$31.5 million or US$0.97 per diluted share a year ago.
“Dorel Juvenile posted significant gains year-over-year, with adjusted operating profit1 improving by US$10.1 million versus last year’s first quarter. Internal optimism is high as the segment is capitalizing on its introduction of a diverse selection of exciting new products. Both our retail partners and consumers have reacted well to the new offerings, with in store sales rebounding nicely, driving growth through market share gains. Through a combination of higher sales and by further reducing Juvenile costs we are more comfortable than ever that this business will continue its year-over-year earnings improvement. Dorel Home also made substantial progress during the first quarter, narrowing its adjusted operating loss1 by US$10.5 million. This was despite on-going softness in the furniture market, where industry sales continue to lag all other consumer product categories. The previously announced plan to simplify and combine certain key areas of the Home segment has made the combined operations more effective and cost efficient. Savings are expected to be US$4.0 million annually. Home is making all the right moves with new customers and new product listings growing. The meaningful benefits will come once industry volumes increase to more traditional levels”, stated Dorel President & CEO, Martin Schwartz.

First quarter revenue was US$212.7 million, up US$12.7 million or 6.3%, from US$200.0 million a year ago. Organic revenue1 increased 6.2% year-over-year, after removing the impact of varying foreign exchange rates. The growth was derived mainly from the U.S. and European markets where the brick-and-mortar distribution channel rebounded strongly. In addition, Brazil and certain export markets contributed to the year-over-year revenue gains. In the U.S., car seats led increases in that division’s product categories. Safety 1st did particularly well, the result of new product placements and a recent rebranding of this iconic brand.
First quarter operating profit was US$0.5 million compared to an operating loss of US$8.9 million last year. Adjusted operating profit1 was US$1.1 million versus an adjusted operating loss1 of US$8.9 million a year ago. The U.S. dollar strengthened against most major currencies since the start of the year and if it had remained at the levels at the end of 2023, this would have added an additional US$2.0 million to earnings in the quarter. Both Dorel Juvenile USA and Dorel Juvenile Europe significantly increased operating profit compared to the comparable period last year with gross margin for the segment being 410 basis points better than the prior year. While a significant portion of the improvement was due to lower cost inventories to start the year, improved pricing, a better product mix and better cost absorption at the U.S. manufacturing facility also contributed to the quarter’s improvement.

Revenue for the first quarter was US$138.4 million, up US$5.2 million, or 3.9% from US$133.2 million a year ago. Total brick and mortar gross sales grew 23.3% from a year ago driven by strong sales of hand trucks, step stools and folding furniture. There was also an increase in replenishment orders as in stock store levels continued to come down. E-commerce gross sales decreased by 6.1%. The current high inflationary environment as well as an increase in U.S. mortgage rates continue to constrain consumer spending on home furnishings. Attendance was excellent at Dorel Home’s booth at the recent High Point Furniture Market with customers enthused about the segment’s new product line up.
First quarter operating loss was US$3.6 million compared to US$13.9 million last year, a US$10.3 million improvement. Adjusted operating loss1 was US$3.4 million versus US$13.9 million a year ago. Gross margin increased by 710 basis points from prior year due largely to lower freight and raw material costs as well as a slight increase in factory volumes which helped overhead absorption. Efficiencies have improved and operating costs have been reduced through the segment’s restructuring plan initiated in the fourth quarter of 2023. Inventories were down US$27.8 million from a year ago.
Outlook
“Dorel Juvenile came in as expected, despite some challenges on currency rates, and we are poised to continue our quarter-over-quarter earnings improvement. We have several significant customer events in the second quarter and expect an increase in sales versus the first quarter as we begin shipping these new items which should further enhance our current improving revenue line. As in prior years, we expect the second half to be better than the first, driven by continued year-over-year revenue gains,” commented Dorel President & CEO, Martin Schwartz.
“At Dorel Home, the traction at brick-and-mortar experienced in first quarter is expected to continue. As we gain new listings and our product begins to sell through, we expect the segment’s on-going quarter-over-quarter earnings to continue to improve. However, given the sales cycle process is naturally longer at brick-and-mortar versus e-commerce, we will only see the benefits of our successes in that channel during the second half of the year. In the meanwhile, we continue to focus on cost reduction and on re-igniting our e-commerce business,” concluded Mr. Schwartz.

Definition and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Ratios and Measures
Dorel presents in this press release certain non-GAAP financial ratios and measures, as described below. These non-GAAP financial ratios and measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. These non-GAAP financial ratios and measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for a measure prepared in accordance with IFRS. Contained within this press release are reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial ratios and measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with IFRS.
Dorel believes that the non-GAAP financial ratios and measures used in this press release provide investors with additional information to analyze its results and to measure its financial performance by excluding the variation caused by certain items that Dorel believes do not reflect its core business performance and provides better comparability between the periods presented. Excluding these items does not imply they are necessarily non-recurring. The non-GAAP financial measures are also used by management to assess Dorel’s financial performance and to make operating and strategic decisions.
Adjustments to non-GAAP financial ratios and measures
As noted above, certain of our non-GAAP financial measures and ratios exclude the variation caused by certain adjustments that affect the comparability of Dorel’s financial results and could potentially distort the analysis of trends in its business performance. Adjustments which impact more than one non-GAAP financial ratio and measure are explained below.
Restructuring costs
Restructuring costs are comprised of costs directly related to significant exit activities, including the sale of manufacturing facilities, closure of businesses, reorganization, optimization, transformation, and consolidation to improve the competitive position of the Company in the marketplace and to reduce costs and bring efficiencies, and acquisition-related costs in connection with business acquisitions. Restructuring costs are included as an adjustment of adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted operating profit (loss), adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share. Restructuring costs were US$0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 (none in 2023). Refer to the section “Restructuring costs” in the MD&A for more details.
Adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin
Adjusted gross profit is calculated as gross profit excluding the impact of restructuring costs. Adjusted gross margin is a non-GAAP ratio and is calculated as adjusted gross profit divided by revenue. Dorel uses adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin to measure its performance from one period to the next, without the variation caused by the impacts of the items described above. Dorel also uses adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin on a segment basis to measure its performance at the segment level. Dorel excludes this item because it affects the comparability of its financial results and could potentially distort the analysis of trends in its business performance. Certain investors and analysts use the adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin to measure the business performance of the Company as a whole and at the segment level from one period to the next, without the variation caused by the impact of the restructuring costs. Excluding this item does not imply it is necessarily non-recurring. These ratios and measures do not have any standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to a similar measure presented by other companies.
There are no adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.
Adjusted operating profit (loss)
Adjusted operating profit (loss) is calculated as operating profit (loss) excluding the impact of restructuring costs. Adjusted operating profit (loss) also excludes impairment loss on goodwill. Management uses adjusted operating profit (loss) to measure its performance from one period to the next, without the variation caused by the impacts of the items described above. Dorel also uses adjusted operating profit (loss) on a segment basis to measure its performance at the segment level. Dorel excludes these items because they affect the comparability of its financial results and could potentially distort the analysis of trends in its business performance. Certain investors and analysts use the adjusted operating profit (loss) to measure the business performance of the Company as a whole and at the segment level from one period to the next, without the variation caused by the impact of the restructuring costs and impairment loss on goodwill. Excluding these items does not imply they are necessarily non-recurring. This measure does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to a similar measure presented by other companies.

Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share
Adjusted net income (loss) is calculated as net income (loss) excluding the impact of restructuring costs and impairment loss on goodwill, as well as income taxes expense (recovery) relating to the adjustments above. Adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share is a non-GAAP ratio and is calculated as adjusted net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of diluted shares. Management uses adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share to measure its performance from one period to the next, without the variation caused by the impacts of the items described above. Dorel excludes these items because they affect the comparability of its financial results and could potentially distort the analysis of trends in its business performance. Certain investors and analysts use the adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share to measure the business performance of the Company from one period to the next. Excluding these items does not imply they are necessarily non-recurring. These measures do not have any standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to a similar measure presented by other companies.

Organic revenue growth (decline) and adjusted organic revenue growth (decline)
Organic revenue growth (decline) is calculated as revenue growth (decline) compared to the previous period, excluding the impact of varying foreign exchange rates. Adjusted organic revenue growth (decline) is calculated as revenue growth (decline) compared to the previous period, excluding the impact of varying foreign exchange rates and the impact of the acquired businesses for the first year of operation and the sale of divisions. Management uses organic revenue growth (decline) and adjusted organic revenue growth (decline) to measure its performance from one period to the next, without the variation caused by the impacts of the items described above. Dorel excludes these items because they affect the comparability of its financial results and could potentially distort the analysis of trends in its business performance. Certain investors and analysts use organic revenue growth (decline) and adjusted organic revenue growth (decline) to measure the business performance of the Company as a whole and at the segment level from one period to the next. Excluding these items does not imply they are necessarily non-recurring. These measures do not have any standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to a similar measure presented by other companies.
