Patrick Industries, Inc. Reports Second Quarter and
Six Months 2017 Financial Results

ELKHART, IN - July 27, 2017 - Patrick Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: PATK), a major manufacturer and distributor of building and component products for the recreational vehicle (“RV”), manufactured housing (“MH”), marine and industrial markets, today reported its financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 25, 2017.
Second Quarter 2017 Financial Results
Net sales for the second quarter of 2017 increased $92.0 million or 29%, to $407.2 million from $315.2 million in the same quarter of 2016. The increase was attributable to industry growth, acquisitions, geographic expansion efforts, and market share gains. The Company's revenues from the RV industry, which represented 69% of second quarter 2017 sales, increased 23%. According to industry sources, RV industry wholesale unit shipments increased approximately 15% in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the prior year. Revenues from the MH industry, which represented 13% of second quarter 2017 sales, increased 30% compared to the prior year period. The Company estimates that wholesale unit shipments in the MH industry rose approximately 11% from the second quarter of 2016. Revenues from the industrial market, which is tied primarily to residential housing and non-residential construction spending, increased 18%. The industrial market, which accounted for 11% of the Company’s second quarter 2017 sales, saw new housing starts increase approximately 1% in the quarter. The Company has continued to expand its presence in the adjacent marine market through strategic acquisitions, particularly over the last two years. Sales from the marine industry, which were previously included with the Company's revenues from the RV industry, represented 7% of the Company's second quarter 2017 sales.
For the second quarter of 2017, Patrick reported operating income of $33.7 million, an increase of 20% or $5.7 million, from the $28.0 million reported in the second quarter of 2016. Net income in the second quarter of 2017 increased 25% to $21.3 million from $17.0 million in the second quarter of 2016, and net income per diluted share increased 15% to $1.28 from $1.11.
The Company's adoption of the new accounting standard for employee share-based payments in the fourth quarter of 2016 required a retroactive adjustment to the income tax provision previously reported for the second quarter of 2016. As a result of this adjustment, the Company's second quarter 2016 net income and net income per diluted share were increased by $0.3 million and $0.01, respectively. In addition, adoption of this standard increased the Company's second quarter 2017 net income and net income per diluted share by $0.9 million and $0.05, respectively. Second quarter 2017 net income per diluted share also reflects the increase in weighted average shares outstanding from the common stock offering completed in March 2017.
Todd Cleveland, Chief Executive Officer, said, "We are pleased with our overall operating and financial results in the second quarter. Our performance reflects the continued successful execution of our strategic growth plans, coupled with the continued positive momentum in the industries we serve. Our innovative solutions, design capabilities, expansion efforts, and the acquisition of Leisure Product Enterprises in April 2017 have afforded us the opportunity to continue to increase our product offerings in all of our primary markets, and to further expand our presence as a key component supplier to the marine industry."

"Our results are consistent with the continued strong demand in all of our markets," stated Andy Nemeth, President. "RV retail unit shipments through the first five months of 2017 experienced double-digit growth with the continued trend toward more modest travel trailers and motorhomes, as these categories are continuing to lead both retail and wholesale unit growth. In addition, wholesale unit shipment growth in the MH industry is outpacing new housing starts growth, and the marine powerboat retail market is experiencing gains over the prior year with unit sales up an estimated 3% in the first six months of 2017, indicating continued positive momentum in the overall leisure lifestyle."




Six Months 2017 Financial Results
Net sales for the first six months of 2017 increased $158.8 million or 27%, to $752.6 million from $593.8 million in the same period of 2016. For the first six months of 2017, the Company's revenues from the RV industry, which represented 70% of its six months 2017 sales, increased 20%. According to industry sources, RV industry wholesale unit shipments increased approximately 13% in the first six months of 2017 compared to the prior year. Additionally, revenues from the MH industry, which represented 13% of the Company's six months 2017 sales, rose 32% compared to the prior year as wholesale unit shipments in this industry, as estimated by the Company, increased approximately 17%. Revenues from the industrial market increased 25% and benefited primarily from acquisitions and from market share gains, particularly related to the residential housing market. The industrial market, which accounted for 12% of the Company's six months 2017 sales, saw new housing starts increase by approximately 4% for the first six months of 2017 compared to the prior year. The Company's sales from the marine industry represented 5% of its six months 2017 sales.
The Company's RV content per unit (on a trailing twelve-month basis excluding revenues from the marine market which were previously included with RV revenues) for the second quarter of 2017 increased approximately 9% to $2,103 from $1,930 for the second quarter of 2016. The MH content per unit (on a trailing twelve-month basis) for the second quarter of 2017 increased approximately 16% to an estimated $2,115 from $1,827 for the second quarter of 2016.
For the first six months of 2017, Patrick reported operating income of $57.6 million, an increase of $9.0 million or 19%, from the $48.6 million reported in the first six months of 2016. Net income in the first six months of 2017 increased 29% to $38.7 million from $29.9 million in the first six months of 2016, while net income per diluted share increased 22% to $2.40 from $1.97.
The Company's six months 2016 net income and net income per diluted share were retroactively increased by $1.2 million and $0.07, respectively, from the amounts previously reported, as a result of the adoption of the employee share-based payment accounting standard. For the comparable 2017 period, net income and net income per diluted share were increased by $4.6 million and $0.27, respectively. Six months 2017 net income per diluted share also reflects the increase in weighted average shares outstanding from the previously mentioned common stock offering.
The Company invested approximately $92.4 million, in the aggregate, for acquisitions and capital expenditures in the first six months of 2017. Total debt, net of cash on hand, decreased $17.5 million to $248.6 million at June 25, 2017, from $266.1 million at December 31, 2016, reflecting the net proceeds of approximately $93.6 million from the Company's common stock offering in March of 2017, cash flows from operations, and the investments in acquisitions and capital expenditures.
Patrick’s total assets increased $154.3 million to $689.3 million at June 25, 2017, from $535.0 million at December 31, 2016, primarily reflecting the addition of acquisition-related assets, seasonality, and overall growth.
"We are pleased with our first half 2017 financial and operating performance," Mr. Nemeth further stated. "We will continue to make investments in our workforce and in capacity initiatives consistent with our capital allocation strategy in order to both add scale in alignment with our customers' demand patterns and to grow our businesses and brands as we continue to strive to meet and exceed our customers' expectations. In addition, we look forward to strengthening our position and increasing our product offerings for our customers as we further expand our presence into the marine and other primary markets, and our expansion initiatives are taking hold and delivering results in line with our strategic plan.”
"As we look ahead to the second half of 2017, and the expected continued growth in all four of our primary end markets, we are focused on continuing to drive strong growth on both the top and bottom line, make strategic acquisitions in our existing businesses and similar markets, reinvest in our business through capital expenditures and workforce planning, and maximize efficiencies to support our long-term strategic growth initiatives," Mr. Cleveland stated. "The capital capacity and flexibility provided by our recent equity offering and credit facility expansion provide us with a strong financial foundation and, when combined with the exceptional commitment and dedication of our 6,000+ team members, position us to focus on the execution of our strategic plan and to further drive shareholder value."
