MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

“While 2023 was a difficult year due to uneven demand trends and prolonged inventory de-stocking, we remained committed to executing on our strategic initiatives, and as a result, we finished the year on a positive note and are entering 2024 well positioned to deliver improved financial results,” stated David Bruce, President and Chief Executive Officer of FGI.  “We saw improved order trends during the fourth quarter, due in large part to the investments we made in organic growth initiatives throughout the year, and we expect the order momentum to continue to build into 2024.”

“We experienced solid growth trends across most of our business portfolio during the fourth quarter owing to growing momentum from new programs, generally stable end market demand, and a normalization of inventory levels in the channel,” noted Bruce.  “Each of our business segments showed year-over-year growth during the fourth quarter, other than Bath Furniture, which continues to be impacted by demand weakness and a trade down to lower-priced offerings. Total revenue ended down 2.6% in the fourth quarter.”

“Our continued strategic focus on higher margin products drove another quarter of strong gross margin improvement, with fourth quarter gross margin increasing 549 basis points to 29.2%, our highest quarterly gross margin as a public company,” continued Bruce.  “As a result, gross profit increased 20.1% during the fourth quarter to $9.0 million.  I am very pleased by the improved momentum exiting the year, and it is very exciting to see our investments in our BPC initiatives begin to pay off.”

“As we discussed on our first call as a public company almost exactly two years ago, we are committed to driving value creation for shareholders by executing on our long-term strategic plan, which is based on driving above market organic growth through a focus on our BPC (Brands, Products, Channels) strategy, enhanced margin performance, and efficient capital deployment,” continued Bruce.  “We remained focused on our strategic plan during 2023, despite what was a very challenging operating environment, and I am very proud of all we accomplished during the year.  From a commercial perspective we made important progress on several key initiatives that will help us drive above-market growth in the coming years, including the launch of several new products and expanded penetration with key customer partners in Sanitaryware, the introduction of value-priced offerings in Bath Furniture to address shifts in market demand,  continued growth in our shower business, and significant expansion in the dealer network for our custom kitchen cabinetry business.  I could not be more pleased by our gross profit margin performance during 2023, as we increased our full year gross margin by 788 basis points, despite the revenue declines, owing to our strategic focus on growing our higher margin product categories.  Finally, we continued our discipled focus on capital deployment, as we reduced working capital usage and ended the year in a very strong financial position that will provide us the financial flexibility to pursue our strategic objectives.”

“We maintained our strict financial discipline during the quarter, resulting in a cash balance of nearly $7.8 million at the end of the fourth quarter, which combined with our borrowing capacity, resulted in total liquidity of $24.4 million,” stated Perry Lin, Chief Financial Officer of FGI.  “We continue to believe the highest and best use of our capital is for internal investment and this will remain our priority in the near-term; however, we will also continue to evaluate opportunities for strategic M&A.”

“While inventory levels have largely normalized, the demand environment remains uneven, with several industry forecasters predicting modest declines in home improvement industry spending in 2024,” continued Bruce.  “However, based on the growing momentum in our new programs and product launches under our BPC program, we expect to generate above-market growth in 2024.  As a result, we are forecasting full year 2024 revenues of $115 million to $128 million, adjusted operating income of $2.8 million to $3.8 million and adjusted net income of $1.2 million to $2.0 million.  While we made significant progress against our strategic initiatives during 2023, we remain focused on our plan and look forward to continued execution against our strategy in 2024,” concluded Bruce.

STRATEGIC UPDATE

FGI intends to drive long-term shareholder value through the execution of its Brands, Products and Channel (BPC) strategy to drive organic growth, enhanced financial performance, and efficient capital deployment.  Some of the accomplishments achieved during the fourth quarter of 2023 and the key priorities for 2024 are as follows:

  • BPC Strategy: FGI has continued to invest in its BPC strategy despite the market challenges, which is expected to drive improved organic growth longer-term. Some of the key successes during the quarter were as follows:
    • FGI recently announced it entered into a 5-year licensing agreement that will provide the Company access to an industry leading overflow toilet technology. The company will market this technology as FlushGuard Overflow Technology. During the fourth quarter, the Company was awarded product placements utilizing the FlushGuard technology at several large customers, including two of the largest commercial distributors in North America. FGI exhibited a new line of retail and commercial sanitaryware products featuring FlushGuard at the 2024 Kitchen & Bath Show.
    • FGI continues to focus on its initiatives to expand geographically, with recently signed agreements providing entry into India, Eastern Europe, Australia, and the UK. In the UK, FGI landed its first new customer partners in 2023 and as recently as this past month, three new distributor partners in India.
    • The Company continued to execute on recently announced awards, including its online shower door program for an existing large Canadian retail partner that commenced in June 2023, and the roll-out of FGI’s industry leading shower wall program into as many as 300 locations of a large U.S. retailer. Both programs continue to ramp up and contributed to improved shower systems growth in the fourth quarter, and the programs are expected to further build momentum into 2024.
    • During the third quarter, FGI announced it had initiated an in-store promotion with a large US retailer that did not previously carry any of the Company’s sanitaryware products in an effort to lay the groundwork for future growth. Following a successful promotion, the Company was able to place several new sanitaryware SKUs with this retailer, which feature the new FlushGuard overflow technology.
    • The premium Covered Bridge kitchen cabinetry brand added 203 new dealers during 2023, bringing the total active dealer count to 302 at the end of the year. FGI had a large display at the 2024 Kitchen & Bath show that showcased its Covered Bridge custom kitchen cabinetry line.
    • Key priorities under the Company’s BPC strategy for 2024 include the continued execution under recently launched programs, further expansion of sanitaryware products utilizing the new FlushGuard overflow technology, the launch of new value-priced bath furniture offerings to better address current market trends, new product launches in shower systems, and the introduction of Isla Porter, the Company’s new digital custom kitchen cabinetry business.
  • Enhanced Margin Performance: FGI generated fourth quarter gross margin of 29.2%, up from 23.7% in the same period last year owing to the ongoing mix shift to higher margin products. For the full year 2023, gross margin was 27.4%, up nearly 800 basis points from the 19.5% gross margin generated in the prior year. During 2024, FGI expects gross margin to remain consistent with the 27-28% gross margin generated during fiscal year 2023, with operating margin improvement driven by volume leverage.
  • Efficient Capital Deployment: FGI will continue to prioritize capital deployment in support of organic growth opportunities, while continuing to evaluate strategic M&A opportunities. With total liquidity of $24.4 million at December 31, 2023, the Company believes it has sufficient financial flexibility to fund its organic growth strategy.

FOURTH QUARTER 2023 RESULTS

Revenue totaled $31.0 million during the fourth quarter of 2023, a decrease of 2.6% compared to the prior-year period, driven by continued end market demand weakness in the bath furniture market, partially offset by growth in the Sanitaryware, Shower Systems, and Other businesses.

  • Sanitaryware revenue was $20.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2023, up 1.8% from revenue of $20.2 million in the prior-year period, as order patterns continued to normalize following the inventory de-stocking headwinds that plagued results over the last year. The pro channel is showing signs of improvement and new customer programs are also beginning to benefit results.
  • Bath Furniture revenue was $2.5 million during the fourth quarter of 2023, a decline from revenue of $6.1 million in the prior-year period, as the bath furniture market continues to be impacted by macro headwinds and a trade-down to lower ticket products. FGI’s product mix in bath furniture had been skewed to higher-end products, which was resulting in more pronounced weakness relative to the value-focused peers in the space. Based on the ongoing shift to more value-priced offerings, FGI is launching product offerings in the mid-tier category to better address current demand and has already won several key customer awards featuring the new bath furniture.
  • Shower Systems revenue was $5.7 million during the fourth quarter, up 55.3% from revenue of $3.7 million last year. Recently launched programs are gaining momentum, including the online shower door program with a large Canadian retailer, and the shower wall systems roll-out at up to 300 locations of a large U.S. retailer with initial shipments that began in December.
  • Other revenue, which consists primarily of the custom kitchen cabinetry business, was $2.1 million during the fourth quarter, up from $1.7 million last year. Revenue benefited from continued dealer growth and new product launches. The Company remains on track to launch its new kitchen cabinetry initiative in the first half of 2024.

Gross profit was $9.0 million during the fourth quarter of 2023, an increase of 20.1% compared to last year owing to strong growth in higher margin categories.  As a result, fourth quarter gross margin improved to 29.2%, up 549 basis points from the prior-year period.  In addition to the shift in revenue mix towards higher-margin products, gross margin also benefitted from lower logistics costs and the benefit of pricing actions taken during 2022.

Operating income was $1.2 million during the fourth quarter of 2023, up from income of $1.0 million in the prior-year period.  Operating income during the fourth quarter of 2023 included non-recurring expenses of $0.1 million for business expansion expense and non-recurring IPO-related compensation.  Excluding these non-recurring expenses, adjusted operating income was $1.4 million during the fourth quarter.  The improvement in operating income was a result of the increase in gross profit, partially offset by higher operating expenses related to growth investments.  The Company continues to invest in its BPC growth strategy despite the recent revenue headwinds.  The increase in operating expenses during the fourth quarter included marketing spend for the recently launched FlushGuard product line and expenses tied to new custom kitchen cabinetry business development opportunities.  Despite the additional investment spending, operating margin was 4.0% during the fourth quarter, up from 3.2% in the same period last year.

The Company reported GAAP net income of $0.5 million, or $0.05 per diluted share during the fourth quarter of 2023, slightly down versus net income of $0.7 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, in the same period last year.

FINANCIAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

As of December 31, 2023, the Company had $7.8 million of cash and cash equivalents, total debt of $7.0 million and $16.6 million of availability under its credit facilities net of letters of credit. Combined with cash and cash equivalents, total liquidity was $24.4 million at December 31, 2023.

FINANCIAL GUIDANCE

FGI believes the long-term outlook for the repair and remodel markets remains attractive, and the Company continues to be encouraged by the progress achieved on its organic growth initiatives through the BPC strategy.  While inventory de-stocking headwinds have largely normalized, the Company expects uneven demand trends across sales geographies coupled with continued strategic investments throughout the organization for future growth.  As a result of these factors, the Company is providing fiscal 2024 guidance as follows:

  • Total Revenue of $115 million and $128 million
  • Total Adjusted Operating Income of $2.8 million and $3.8 million
  • Total Adjusted Net Income of $1.2 million to $2.0 million

Guidance for adjusted operating income and adjusted net income is presented on an adjusted basis and excludes non-recurring items.  All guidance is current as of the time provided and is subject to change.

FGI will conduct a conference call on Thursday, March 21 at 9:00 am Eastern Time to discuss the quarterly results.

ABOUT FGI INDUSTRIES

FGI Industries Ltd. (Nasdaq: FGI) is a leading global supplier of kitchen and bath products. For over 30 years, we have built an industry-wide reputation for product innovation, quality, and excellent customer service. We are currently focused on the following product categories: sanitaryware (primarily toilets, sinks, pedestals and toilet seats), bath furniture (vanities, mirrors and cabinets), shower systems, customer kitchen cabinetry and other accessory items. These products are sold primarily for repair and remodel activity and, to a lesser extent, new home or commercial construction. We sell our products through numerous partners, including mass retail centers, wholesale and commercial distributors, online retailers and specialty stores.

Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to the measures presented in our consolidated financial statements, we use the following non-GAAP measures to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business and assist us in making strategic decisions. Our non-GAAP measures are: Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Margins and Adjusted Net Income. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). They are supplemental financial measures of our performance only, and should not be considered substitutes for net income, income from operations or any other measure derived in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other entities. We define Adjusted Operating Income as GAAP income from operations excluding the impact of certain non-recurring expenses, including expenses related to non-recurring compensation expenses related to our IPO, IPO legal fees, certain business expansion costs, and one-time anti-dumping penalty expenses. We define Adjusted Net Income as GAAP net income excluding the tax-effected impact of certain non-recurring expenses and income such as expenses related to COVID‑19 protocols, unusual litigation fees and non-recurring compensation expenses related to our IPO. We define Adjusted Operating Margins as adjusted income from operations divided by revenue.

We use these non-GAAP measures, along with U.S. GAAP measures, to evaluate our business, measure our financial performance and profitability and our ability to manage expenses, after adjusting for certain non-recurring expenses, identify trends affecting our business and assist us in making strategic decisions. We believe these non-GAAP measures, when reviewed in conjunction with U.S. GAAP financial measures, and not in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results of operations under U.S. GAAP, are useful to investors as they are widely used measures of performance and the adjustments we make to these non-GAAP measures provide investors further insight into our profitability and additional perspectives in comparing our performance over time on a consistent basis. With respect to the Company’s expectations of its future performance, the Company’s reconciliations of guidance for full year 2024 Adjusted Operating Income and 2024 Adjusted Net Income are not available, as the Company is unable to quantify certain amounts to the degree of precision that would be required in the relevant GAAP measures without unreasonable effort.
