HILLIARD, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 18, 2023--
Advanced Drainage Systems, Inc. (NYSE: WMS) (“ADS” or the “Company”), a leading provider of innovative water management solutions in the stormwater and on-site septic waste water industries today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended March 31, 2023.
Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2023 Results
Fiscal 2023 Results
Scott Barbour, President and Chief Executive Officer of ADS commented, "Fiscal 2023 was ADS’ sixth consecutive year of record revenue and profitability. Net sales grew 11% to $3.1 billion and Adjusted EBITDA increased 34% to $904 million, resulting in an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 29.4%. Over the last six years, net sales and Adjusted EBITDA have increased at a compound annual growth rate of 16% and 29%, respectively. These results are the product of ADS’ strong business model and long-term strategies to drive above-market results and expand profitability, as both ADS and Infiltrator executed these strategies well in a dynamic macroeconomic environment. We are very proud of this year’s achievements, and we remain focused on our key growth strategies as well as the Fiscal 2025 Adjusted EBITDA margin target presented at our investor day in March 2022."
"The fourth quarter net sales and Adjusted EBITDA results came in above our guidance for the full year, despite overlapping demand weakness in our core non-residential and residential end markets. We had an excellent quarter from a profitability standpoint, and Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to a new fourth quarter record of 27.8%, 300 basis points above the prior year. Favorable pricing as well as favorable material and transportation costs offset inflationary cost pressure, lower Infiltrator volume and lower fixed cost absorption from lower production over the last two quarters."
"The need for water management solutions remains highly relevant despite the short-term weakness in market demand. We are actively engaging with communities that are improving standards for stormwater and onsite septic wastewater management, staying true to our brand promise to protect and manage water, the world’s most precious resource, safeguarding our environment and communities. Last October, we broke ground on our world-class Engineering & Technology Center to expand our efforts to bring new products, materials and technology to our markets. As one of the largest plastic recyclers in North America, we remain committed to finding innovative ways to increase the use of recycled plastics, thereby improving the circularity of the plastics economy. Importantly, we are being recognized for our impact, effort and value proposition as companies continue to choose our products for water management in large-scale development projects."
Barbour concluded, "In the coming year, the ADS and Infiltrator businesses will be subject to the challenging economic fundamentals currently underlying the residential and non-residential markets. The actions we took in the fiscal fourth quarter to reduce manufacturing and transportation costs were implemented successfully and are reflected in our Fiscal 2024 guidance. We will continue to work cost levers in order to maintain our profitability commitments while also managing our overall network and capital investments so that we are in a favorable position as the market rebounds. We will focus on growth opportunities in the Infrastructure and Agriculture markets, onshoring projects, and market penetration opportunities for products such as our HP pipe, Allied products, onsite septic tanks and active onsite treatment products to drive above market growth through our proven go to market capabilities."
Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2023 Results
Net sales decreased $60.6 million, or 8.9%, to $617.6 million, as compared to $678.2 million in the prior year quarter. Domestic pipe sales decreased $39.3 million, or 9.9%, to $357.4 million. Domestic allied products & other sales increased $1.0 million, or 0.7%, to $150.2 million. Infiltrator sales decreased $27.9 million, or 21.3%, to $102.7 million. These decreases were primarily driven by demand in the U.S. construction end markets. International sales decreased $4.8 million, or 12.1%, to $35.1 million.
Gross profit increased $32.2 million, or 16.9%, to $222.4 million as compared to $190.2 million in the prior year. The increase in gross profit is primarily due to the favorable pricing on pipe, onsite septic and allied products as well as favorable material cost. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in volume, inflationary cost pressures and higher manufacturing costs. In addition, the Company recorded $19.2 million of non-cash, stock-based compensation expense in Cost of goods sold - ESOP acceleration expense in the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as described below under the heading "Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)".
Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP) increased $3.5 million, or 2.1%, to $172.0 million, as compared to $168.5 million in the prior year. The increase is primarily due to the factors mentioned above. As a percentage of net sales, Adjusted EBITDA was 27.8% as compared to 24.8% in the prior year.
Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP financial measures for Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow have been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
Fiscal Year 2023 Results
Net sales increased $301.8 million, or 10.9%, to $3,071.1 million, as compared to $2,769.3 million in the prior year. Domestic pipe sales increased $203.7 million, or 13.1%, to $1,759.0 million. Domestic allied products & other sales increased $131.0 million, or 23.0%, to $700.3 million. Infiltrator sales decreased $28.3 million, or 5.1%, to $523.6 million. These increases were driven by growth in both the U.S. construction and agriculture end markets. International sales increased $14.3 million, or 6.4%, to $239.1 million, driven by growth in the Canada, Mexican and Exports businesses.
Gross profit increased $318.0 million, or 39.7%, to $1,118.4 million as compared to $800.4 million in the prior year. The increase in gross profit is primarily due to the favorable pricing on pipe, onsite septic and allied products as well as favorable material cost. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in volume, inflationary cost pressures and higher manufacturing costs.
Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP) increased $227.9 million, or 33.7%, to $904.0 million, as compared to $676.0 million in the prior year. The increase is primarily due to the factors mentioned above. As a percentage of net sales, Adjusted EBITDA was 29.4% as compared to 24.4% in the prior year.
Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)
On February 2, 2022, the ADS Board of Directors passed a resolution authorizing a $0.3 million Company cash contribution to the ESOP for the ESOP to repay the remaining balance of its ESOP loan on March 31, 2022, one year ahead of the ESOP loan’s March 31, 2023 maturity date. Effective March 31, 2022, the remaining balance on the Company's ESOP loan was repaid in full, and the remaining shares of unallocated preferred stock were allocated to participants of the ESOP. In April 2022, the 15.6 million shares of preferred stock outstanding converted to 12.0 million shares of common stock, resulting in $19.2 million of additional non-cash, stock-based compensation expense recorded in Cost of goods sold - ESOP acceleration and $11.3 million of additional non-cash, stock-based compensation expense recorded in Selling, general and administrative - ESOP acceleration in the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended March 31, 2022.
For additional information on the Company's ESOP, please refer to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, and other reports filed by the Company with the SEC.

These measures are not intended to be substitutes for those reported in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures that comprise net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, non-cash charges and certain other expenses. The Company’s definition of Adjusted EBITDA may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures. Adjusted EBITDA is a key metric used by management and the Company’s board of directors to assess financial performance and evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s business strategies. Accordingly, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as the Company’s management and board of directors. In order to provide investors with a meaningful reconciliation, the Company has provided below reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA to net income.
Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that comprises cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures. Free Cash Flow is a measure used by management and the Company’s board of directors to assess the Company’s ability to generate cash. Accordingly, management believes that Free Cash Flow provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our ability to generate cash flow from operations after capital expenditures. In order to provide investors with a meaningful reconciliation, the Company has provided below a reconciliation of cash flow from operating activities to Free Cash Flow.
The following tables present a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income and Free Cash Flow to Cash Flow from Operating Activities, the most comparable GAAP measures, for each of the periods indicated.
