Items of Note for the Fourth Quarter of 2014:
- Organic revenue and volume increased 5 percent compared to the prior year; volume outside the EIMEA region increased by 7 percent;
- Investment portion of business integration project in Europe now complete; production site in Borgo, Italy closed;
- Returned productivity metrics of North America operations to near pre-SAP implementation levels;
- Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) expenses were tightly controlled, 30 basis points as a percentage of net revenue lower than the prior year's fourth quarter;
- After the end of the quarter, signed an agreement to purchase Continental Products Limited in Kenya, an adhesives business with strong customer relationships in the fast growing east and central Africa region.
Items of Note for 2015 Guidance:
- Solid organic revenue growth of 6 percent expected; strong growth in Asia Pacific and Construction Products sustained;
- Adjusted diluted EPS plan of $2.60, an increase of approximately 12 percent over 2014;
- Adjusted EBITDA of $280 million, up 13 percent versus 2014;
- Business integration related special charges reduced from $51 million in 2014 to approximately $5 million in 2015;
- Capital expenditures of $70 million planned in 2015 including significant investment for capacity and productivity improvements to support strong growth in Construction Products segment;
- Strength of the US dollar, especially relative to the Euro, will negatively impact revenue and earnings growth.
Fiscal 2015 Outlook:
Our key long-term financial objectives remain unchanged: achieve organic revenue growth of between 5 and 8 percent per annum, increase our EBITDA margin to 15 percent, grow EPS by 15 percent per annum and increase Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) to 15 percent. Investments completed in 2014 combined with operational improvements and growth planned for 2015 will create a solid foundation to achieve our financial targets in 2016.
In 2015, we expect organic revenue growth of approximately 6 percent. Significant elements of our revenue growth plan include continued solid organic growth in the Asia Pacific segment, strong growth in the Construction Products segment based on already captured market share gains, improving organic growth in the Americas Adhesives segment and a return to organic growth in Europe. The strength of the US dollar relative to the Euro is expected to negatively impact year-over-year revenue growth by approximately 300 basis points. Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $280 million dollars is planned, reflecting a full-year adjusted EBITDA margin of about 13 percent. We expect our operating performance to improve quarter by quarter through the year; second half EBITDA margin should approach 14 percent. Our core tax rate should be approximately 30 percent, excluding the impact of discrete items. Finally, our adjusted diluted EPS for the 2015 fiscal year is planned at $2.60, with a plan to deliver $0.35 in the first quarter.
The established guidance presented in this release regarding adjusted diluted earnings per share does not include financial impacts from the anticipated Tonsan acquisition.
Capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $70 million dollars in 2015. The most significant investment project provides additional capacity and higher productivity assets for our rapidly growing Construction Products segment. The business integration project is now essentially complete; therefore, project related special charges will be reduced substantially in 2015 to approximately $5 million. The special charges planned for 2015 primarily reflect costs associated with maintaining real estate assets pending sale.
"We are energized and optimistic as we start the new fiscal year," said Jim Owens, H.B. Fuller president and chief executive officer. "The sizable investments we made over the past several years progressed as planned in the fourth quarter and we expect that by mid-year we will be capturing the benefits of these investments and will be positioned to achieve our long term EBITDA margin goals in 2016. Our growth agenda is on track for 2015 as we continue to capture market share in Construction Products and Asia, deliver positive organic growth in EIMEA and leverage the fundamental strengths in the Americas end-markets. In addition, the anticipated acquisition of Tonsan Adhesives will provide numerous new and exciting opportunities for growth going forward."
Fourth Quarter 2014 Results:
Net income for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $10.8 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, versus net income of $21.9 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, in last year's fourth quarter. Adjusted diluted earnings per share in the fourth quarter of 2014 were $0.641, down slightly versus the prior year's adjusted result of $0.681. Relative to our guidance for the quarter, our adjusted earnings per share were negatively impacted by $0.02 due to the stronger US dollar relative to the Euro and a slightly higher than expected tax rate in the quarter.
Net revenue for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $547.7 million, up 2.7 percent versus the fourth quarter of 2013. Higher volume and higher average selling prices positively impacted net revenue growth by 4.7 and 0.1 percentage points, respectively. Foreign currency translation negatively impacted net revenue growth by 2.1 percentage points. Organic revenue grew by 4.8 percent year-over-year.
Gross profit margin was down versus the prior year's result due to a variety of factors including the previously announced organizational restructuring and excess costs associated with the business integration project in Europe and Project ONE in North America. SG&A expense was well controlled, up only 1 percent versus the prior year's fourth quarter and down 30 basis points as a percentage of net revenue.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow:
At the end of the fourth quarter of 2014, we had cash totaling $78 million and total debt of $575 million. This compares to third quarter 2014 cash and debt levels of $76 million and $563 million, respectively. Sequentially, net debt was up by $10 million. Cash flow from operations was positive $42 million in the fourth quarter. Capital expenditures were $24 million in the fourth quarter, with the bulk of this spending related to completing our business integration activities.
Fiscal Year 2014 Results:
Net income for the 2014 fiscal year was $49.9 million, or $0.97 per diluted share, versus income from continuing operations of $96.0 million, or $1.87 per diluted share, in the 2013 fiscal year. Adjusted total diluted earnings per share in the 2014 fiscal year were $2.331, down 10 percent from the prior year's result of $2.581.
Net revenue for the 2014 fiscal year was $2,104.5 million, up 2.8 percent versus the 2013 fiscal year. Higher volume positively impacted net revenue growth by 3.5 percentage points. Lower average selling prices and foreign currency translation negatively impacted net revenue growth by 0.4 and 0.3 percentage points, respectively. Organic revenue grew by 3.1 percent year-over-year.
Gross profit margin for the 2014 fiscal year was down relative to last year due primarily to excess costs related to ongoing project work related to the European business integration and Project ONE. SG&A expense was up 2 percent versus the prior year, but down as a percentage of net revenue reflecting tight control of discretionary expenses offset by excess costs associated with the Project ONE implementation in North America.
Project ONE and Business Integration:
Currently the SAP system in North America is stable and fully supporting our business. Our business in North America is running with productivity and customer service level metrics near pre-implementation levels. We have modified our phased implementation schedule for Project ONE, delaying all "go live" events until after the 2015 fiscal year. Our focus in 2015 will be optimizing the North America platform and re-planning the remainder of the project, taking into account the learnings from the initial phase of the project.
In Europe the business integration project is essentially complete. We have experienced considerable delays in the final stages of this project and the costs associated with finalizing facility closures and bringing new assets up to full capacity continue to hinder the profitability of the EIMEA segment. All facilities planned for closure have been idled. We have shifted to an operational mode of continuous improvement in Europe and steady productivity improvements are expected during 2015.

Certain statements in this document may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to the following: the Company's ability to effectively integrate and operate acquired businesses; the ability to effectively implement Project ONE; political and economic conditions; product demand; competitive products and pricing; costs of and savings from restructuring initiatives; geographic and product mix; availability and price of raw materials; the Company's relationships with its major customers and suppliers; changes in tax laws and tariffs; devaluations and other foreign exchange rate fluctuations; the impact of litigation and environmental matters; the effect of new accounting pronouncements and accounting charges and credits; and similar matters.
