“The fourth quarter of 2013 and the year as a whole were challenging for Cott,” commented Jerry Fowden, Cott’s Chief Executive Officer. “The overall carbonated soft drink market and the shelf stable juice market declined during the year, which alongside increased national brand promotional activity and deep price discounting adversely affected our volumes. Despite these pressures we continued to run our business tightly, reducing our SG&A costs and delivering $100 million of free cash flow,” continued Mr. Fowden.

FOURTH QUARTER 2013 PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

  • Total filled beverage case volume (which excludes concentrate sales) was 180 million cases compared to 199 million cases. The volume decline was due primarily to the general market decline in the North American carbonated soft drink (“CSD”) category, prolonged aggressive promotional activity from the national brands in North America as well as the exiting of case pack water.

  • Revenue was lower by 7% (7% excluding the impact of foreign exchange) at $482 million. The revenue decline was due primarily to lower global volumes slightly offset by an increase in average price per case on a global basis.

  • Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 11.2% compared to 11.7%. The gross margin reduction was due primarily to lower global volumes which resulted in unfavorable fixed cost absorption.

  • SG&A expenses were lower by 9% at $39.5 million compared to $43.6 million. The decrease in SG&A was due primarily to lower employee-related costs as well as lower professional fees.

  • Loss before income taxes was $10.5 million compared to income before taxes of $2.5 million.

  • Income tax benefit was $0.1 million compared to $0.9 million.

  • Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per diluted share were $2.8 million and $0.03, respectively, compared to $3.2 million and $0.03 in the prior year, respectively. Reported net loss and loss per diluted share were $11.5 million and $0.12, respectively, compared to reported net income and earnings per diluted share of $2.3 million and $0.02, respectively, in the prior year. The difference between reported net income and adjusted net income was due primarily to recognizing $12.7 million of expense associated with the redemption of the 2017 Senior Notes.

  • Adjusted EBITDA was $42.5 million compared to $42.5 million. Reported EBITDA was $27.8 million compared to $41.6 million.

  • Free cash flow was $81.4 million, reflecting $92.3 million of net cash provided by operating activities less $10.9 million of capital expenditures. Excluding the impact of the redemption of the Senior Notes due in 2017, free cash flow was $89.6 million.

FOURTH QUARTER 2013 REPORTING SEGMENT HIGHLIGHTS

  • North America filled beverage case volume was 129 million cases compared to 146 million cases and revenue was lower by 11% at $341 million due primarily to the general market decline in the North American CSD category, prolonged aggressive promotional activity from the national brands as well as the exiting of case pack water.

  • United Kingdom / Europe (“UK”) filled beverage case volume was 48 million cases compared to 46 million cases. Revenue was higher by 8% (7% excluding the impact of foreign exchange) at $126 million, due primarily to additional revenues from the Calypso Soft Drinks business acquired in the second quarter of 2013.

  • All Other total beverage case volume (including concentrate) was 65 million cases compared to 65 million cases. Our All Other reporting segment includes our Mexico operating segment, Royal Crown International operating segment and other miscellaneous expenses (prior year information has been updated to reflect this change in our reporting segments). Revenue was lower by 6%, due to the exiting of low gross margin business in Mexico, partially offset by increased higher margin contract manufacturing customers as well as new customers at RCI. Mexico total beverage case volume was 3 million cases compared to 7 million cases. Revenue in Mexico was lower by 49% (48% excluding the impact of foreign exchange) at $5 million due primarily to the exiting of low gross margin business. RCI total beverage case volume (including concentrate) was 62 million cases compared to 58 million cases. Revenue increased 62% primarily due to new customers as well as favorable changes in the product mix sold.

FISCAL YEAR 2013 PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

  • Total filled beverage case volume (excluding concentrate sales) was 793 million cases compared to 867 million cases. The volume decline was due primarily to the general market decline in the North American CSD category, prolonged aggressive promotional activity from the national brands in North America as well as the exiting of case pack water.

  • Revenue was lower by 7% (7% excluding the impact of foreign exchange) at $2,094 million. The revenue decline was due primarily to lower global volumes slightly offset by an increase in average price per case on a global basis.

  • Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 12.0% compared to 12.9%. The gross margin reduction was due primarily to lower global volumes which resulted in unfavorable fixed cost absorption.

  • SG&A expenses were lower by 10% at $160 million compared to $178 million. The decrease in SG&A was due primarily to lower employee-related and reduced information technology costs.

  • Income before income taxes was $24.2 million compared to $56.9 million.

  • Income tax expense was $2.2 million compared to $4.6 million, due primarily to a reduction in pretax income.

  • Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per diluted share were $36.3 million and $0.38, respectively, compared to $51.9 million and $0.55 in the prior year, respectively. Reported net income and earnings per diluted share were $17.0 million and $0.18, respectively, compared to $47.8 million and $0.50, respectively, in the prior year.

  • Adjusted EBITDA was $197 million compared to $213 million. Reported EBITDA was $177 million compared to $209 million, due primarily to costs related to the redemption of the Senior Notes due in 2017.

FISCAL YEAR 2013 REPORTING SEGMENT HIGHLIGHTS

  • North America filled beverage case volume was 581 million cases compared to 652 million cases and revenue was lower by 10% at $1,535 million due primarily to the general market decline in the North American CSD category, prolonged aggressive promotional activity from the national brands as well as the exiting of case pack water.

  • U.K. filled beverage case volume was 194 million cases compared to 190 million cases. Revenue was higher by 5% (6% excluding the impact of foreign exchange) at $494 million, due primarily to the additional revenues from the Calypso business.

Mexico total beverage case volume (including concentrate) was 17 million cases compared to 26 million cases. Mexican revenue was lower by 29% (31% excluding the impact of foreign exchange) at $28 million due primarily to the exiting of low gross margin business, partially offset by increased higher margin contract manufacturing.

Defined Terms
Certain defined terms used in this press release include the following. “GAAP” means U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. “Total filled beverage case volume” means 24 eight ounce equivalent servings per case. “Adjusted Net Income (Loss)” means GAAP earnings (loss) excluding purchase accounting adjustments, integration expenses, restructuring expenses and bond redemption costs. “Adjusted Earnings Per Diluted Share” means Adjusted Net Income divided by diluted weighted average outstanding shares. “EBITDA” means GAAP earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. “Adjusted EBITDA” means GAAP earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, excluding purchase accounting adjustments, integration expenses, restructuring expenses and bond redemption costs. See the accompanying reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the corresponding GAAP measures, as well as the “Non-GAAP Measures” paragraph below.

Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement its reporting of financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP, Cott utilizes certain non-GAAP financial measures. Cott excludes from GAAP revenue the impact of foreign exchange to separate the impact of currency exchange rate changes from Cott’s results of operations. Cott utilizes Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Earnings Per Diluted Share, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to separate the impact of certain items from the underlying business. Because Cott uses these adjusted financial results in the management of its business, management believes this supplemental information is useful to investors for their independent evaluation and understanding of Cott’s underlying business performance and the performance of its management. Additionally, Cott supplements its reporting of net cash provided by operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP by excluding capital expenditures to present free cash flow, which management believes provides useful information to investors about the amount of cash generated by the business that, after the acquisition of property and equipment, can be used for strategic opportunities, including investing in our business, making strategic acquisitions, paying dividends, and strengthening the balance sheet. The non-GAAP financial measures described above are in addition to, and not meant to be considered superior to, or a substitute for, Cott’s financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures included in this earnings announcement reflect management’s judgment of particular items, and may be different from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Safe Harbor Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 conveying management’s expectations as to the future based on plans, estimates and projections at the time Cott makes the statements. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties and Cott cautions you that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any such forward-looking statement. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release include, but are not limited to, statements related to our capital deployment strategy, future financial and operating trends and results and related matters.
