Updates Full Year Outlook
SHELTON, Conn., Aug. 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Edgewell Personal Care Company (NYSE: EPC) today announced results for its third fiscal quarter 2023 ended June 30, 2023.
Executive Summary
The Company reports and forecasts results on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis and has reconciled non-GAAP results and outlook to the most directly comparable GAAP measures later in this release. See non-GAAP Financial Measures for a more detailed explanation, including definitions of various non-GAAP terms used in this release. All comparisons used in this release are with the same period in the prior fiscal year unless otherwise stated.
"Our results this quarter continued to demonstrate the success of our transformation, as we delivered strong organic net sales and earnings per share growth, expanded gross margin and generated substantial cash," said Rod Little, Edgewell's President and Chief Executive Officer. "These results reflect the underlying strength of our business, our broad portfolio of consumer centric brands, and the breadth of our global business. While the macro environment remains uncertain, and our Sun Care business has been impacted by unfavorable weather, we are on track to deliver our third consecutive year of 4% organic net sales growth, and Adjusted EPS and Adjusted EBITDA at or above the high end of our previously provided outlook ranges. Notably, we remain focused on executing against our strategic priorities which position us to deliver sustained growth and value creation."
Fiscal 3Q 2023 Operating Results (Unaudited)
Net sales were $650.0 million in the quarter, an increase of 4.2%, including a $1.7 million unfavorable impact from currency movements. Organic net sales increased 4.5%, as international markets increased 8.7%, driven by strong Wet Shave, Sun Care and Grooming performance and North America markets increased 2.3%, driven by Sun Care and Grooming growth. In aggregate, growth in organic net sales was driven by increased pricing.
Gross profit was $279.7 million, inclusive of a $7.2 million unfavorable impact from currency movements, as compared to $240.6 million in the prior year quarter. Gross margin as a percent of net sales was 43.0%, an increase of 440-basis points compared to the prior year period. Adjusted gross margin increased 80-basis points, or 185-basis points at constant currency, as productivity savings of approximately 205-basis points, and the benefit of higher pricing of 375-basis points, more than offset gross inflationary pressures of approximately 330-basis points and negative mix.
Advertising and sales promotion expense ("A&P") was $80.0 million, or 12.3% of net sales, a decrease of $0.9 million, compared to $80.9 million, or 13.0% of net sales in the prior year quarter.
Selling, general and administrative expense ("SG&A") was $96.3 million, or 14.8% of net sales, as compared to $92.7 million, or 14.9% of net sales in the prior year quarter. Adjusted SG&A as a percent of net sales decreased 20-basis points as the benefits of leverage and operational efficiency programs more than offset the impact of higher people costs and travel expense.
The Company recorded pre-tax restructuring expenses of $3.1 million in the quarter, consisting largely of severance and outplacement costs in support of cost efficiency programs, $1.0 million in acquisition and integration costs related to the Billie acquisition, and recorded a $6.8 million net benefit related to favorable resolution of legal matters.
Operating income, was $85.6 million, inclusive of a $6.7 million unfavorable impact from currency movements, compared to $49.9 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted operating income increased 18.8% to $83.5 million, or 12.8% of net sales, compared to $70.3 million, or 11.3% of net sales in the prior year quarter. Adjusted operating margins increased 150-basis points, or 250-basis points at constant currency, driven by operational leverage and improved gross margins.
Interest expense associated with debt was $19.2 million, compared to $18.0 million in the prior year period. The increase in interest expense was the result of higher interest rates and a higher overall debt balance on the Company's revolving credit facility.
Other expense (income), net was income of $3.8 million compared to $4.4 million of income in the prior year quarter.
The effective tax rate for the first nine months of fiscal 2023 was 25.9% compared to 18.5% in the prior year period. The adjusted effective tax rate for the first nine months of fiscal 2023 was 25.9%, up from the prior year period adjusted effective tax rate of 20.0%. The fiscal 2023 adjusted effective tax rate reflects an unfavorable mix of earnings in higher tax rate jurisdictions compared to prior year. In addition, fiscal 2022 includes the favorable impact of a change in the Company's prior estimates.
GAAP net earnings were $52.5 million or $1.01 per diluted share compared to $30.5 million or $0.57 per diluted share in the third quarter of fiscal 2022. Adjusted net earnings were $50.8 million or $0.98 per share, inclusive of a $0.09 unfavorable impact from currency movements, compared to $45.8 million or $0.86 per share in the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $109.1 million, inclusive of a $5.5 million unfavorable currency impact, compared to $97.1 million in the prior year quarter.
Net cash from operating activities was $168.3 million for the nine months ending June 30, 2023 compared to $72.4 million in the prior year period. The increase in cash from operating activities was driven by favorable changes in working capital and increased earnings.
Capital Allocation
On August 1, 2023, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per common share for the third fiscal quarter. The dividend will be payable on October 4, 2023 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on September 7, 2023. During the third quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company paid dividends totaling $7.7 million to stockholders.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company completed share repurchases of approximately 0.3 million shares at a total cost of $15.2 million. As of June 30, 2023 the Company had 5.4 million shares of common stock available for repurchase in the future under the Board's 2018 authorization.
Fiscal 3Q 2023 Operating Segment Results (Unaudited)
Wet Shave (Men's Systems, Women's Systems, Disposables, and Shave Preps)
Net sales decreased $2.2 million, or 0.7%. Organic net sales decreased $0.2 million or 0.1%, as the benefit of higher pricing was offset by lower volumes. Growth in Men's Systems and Disposable's was offset by declines in Shave Preps and Women's Systems. Wet Shave segment profit decreased $5.4 million, or 14.4%. Organic segment profit, excluding the unfavorable impact from currency increased $1.2 million, or 3.2%, reflecting higher gross profit, partly offset by higher marketing expense.
Sun and Skin Care (Sun Care, Wet Ones, Bulldog, Jack Black and Cremo)
Net sales increased $28.7 million, or 13.3%. Organic net sales increased $28.1 million, or 13.0%, driven by strong growth across Sun Care, Men's Grooming and Wet One's. Organic net sales in International markets increased 21.0%, led by strong Sun Care demand in Latin America and Europe and higher pricing, while in North America, organic net sales increased 11.3%, driven by price and volume gains. Segment profit increased $14.5 million, or 31.1%. Organic segment profit increased $14.7 million, or 31.5%, primarily driven by higher organic net sales and gross profit and lower marketing expense.
Feminine Care (Tampons, Pads, and Liners)
Net sales decreased $0.3 million, or 0.4%. Organic net sales were in-line with prior year, reflecting lower volumes, offset by higher pricing. Segment profit increased $5.1 million. Organic segment profit increased $5.2 million, or 59.1%, primarily driven by higher gross margin.

EDGEWELL PERSONAL CARE COMPANYNOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(unaudited, in millions, except per share data)
Note 1 — Segments
The Company conducts its business in the following three segments: Wet Shave, Sun and Skin Care, and Feminine Care (collectively, the "Segments," and each individually, a "Segment"). Segment performance is evaluated based on segment profit, exclusive of general corporate expenses, share-based compensation costs, restructuring and related costs, and may at times include other costs or income, including acquisition and integration costs, Sun Care reformulation costs, value-added tax ("VAT") settlement costs, the loss on the Canadian defined benefit settlement, income from resolution of legal matters, stock keeping unit ("SKU") rationalization charges and the amortization of intangible assets. Financial items, such as interest income and expense, are managed on a global basis at the corporate level. The exclusion of such charges from segment results reflects management's view on how it evaluates segment performance.
The Company completed the acquisition of Billie on November 29, 2021.
