Armstrong World Industries, Inc. (NYSE:AWI), a leader in the
design, innovation and manufacture of commercial and residential
ceiling, wall and suspension system solutions, today reported
financial results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2021. For
the full year 2021, operating income increased 2% versus the prior
year and adjusted EBITDA was up 13% versus the prior year as the
company continued to execute well despite variable market
conditions and complex macro factors.
“We delivered strong results in the fourth
quarter that contributed to double-digit growth in full year net
sales and EBITDA,” said Vic Grizzle, President and CEO of Armstrong
World Industries. “These results were driven by effective execution
through an uneven market recovery and the continued strength of our
total value proposition. These hallmarks of our company support our
ability to more than offset inflationary pressures with our pricing
strategies while maintaining investments in longer-term growth
opportunities. The investments we've made throughout the pandemic
in people, capabilities, new product development and our digital
and Healthy Spaces initiatives, give us confidence in our growth
outlook for 2022 and beyond.”

* The Company uses non-GAAP adjusted measures in
managing the business and believes the adjustments provide
meaningful comparisons of operating performance between periods and
are useful alternative measures of performance. Reconciliations of
the most comparable GAAP measure are found in the tables at the end
of this press release. Non-GAAP figures are rounded to the nearest
million with the exception of per share data.
Fourth-quarter 2021 consolidated net sales
increased 18.3% from prior-year results, driven primarily by
favorable Average Unit Value (“AUV”) of $23 million and incremental
sales from the acquisitions of Turf, Moz and Arktura in 2020 (“2020
Acquisitions”) of $14 million. Sales volumes for both segments
continued to recover compared to prior-year results, although the
resurgence of the pandemic in certain markets and global supply
chain and labor disruptions have resulted in extended project
timelines.
Operating income increased 25.9% from
fourth-quarter 2020 results primarily due to positive AUV in the
Mineral Fiber segment, the absence of the prior year charitable
contribution to the Armstrong World Industries Foundation, the
positive margin impact of incremental net sales from the 2020
Acquisitions and favorable WAVE equity earnings. This favorability
was partially offset by higher manufacturing costs, the absence of
environmental insurance recoveries recorded in the prior period, an
increase in acquisition-related costs and intangible asset
amortization attributable to the 2020 Acquisitions, the change in
fair value related to the 2020 Acquisitions and the return of
discretionary spending that we proactively reduced in 2020 in
response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Fourth-quarter 2021 Mineral Fiber net sales
increased 13.2% due to a 12% increase in AUV and a 1% increase in
sales volumes. AUV performance was driven primarily by increases in
like-for-like pricing and favorable channel mix compared to the
fourth quarter of 2020.
Fourth-quarter Mineral Fiber operating income
increased 33.3% from prior-year results primarily due to a $19
million benefit from favorable AUV, a $10 million impact from the
absence of the prior year charitable contribution and a $4 million
increase in WAVE equity earnings. This favorability was partially
offset by an $8 million increase in manufacturing costs, $7 million
of environmental recoveries recorded in the prior year period and
$2 million of increased costs related to digital growth
initiatives. Further offsetting the favorability was the return of
discretionary spending that was reduced in the prior-year
period.

Fourth-quarter 2021 net sales in Architectural
Specialties increased 35.4% from prior-year results, driven by a
$14 million increase from the 2020 Acquisitions and higher organic
sales volumes.
The year-over-year decline in operating income
was primarily driven by a $12 million increase in expenses,
including intangible asset amortization and the change in fair
value of contingent consideration, related to the 2020
Acquisitions, which was partially offset by the positive impact of
increased sales versus the prior year period.
Unallocated Corporate
The Company reported an Unallocated Corporate
operating loss of $1.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2021
compared to a loss of $2.3 million in the prior year period.

Full year net sales increased 18.1% from
prior-year results, driven by a $71 million increase from favorable
AUV, a $64 million increase related to the 2020 Acquisitions and
increased volumes in both segments as end markets began to recover
from the troughs of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Full year operating income increased 2.0% from
prior results, driven by favorable AUV, favorable WAVE equity
earnings, the benefit of incremental sales from the 2020
Acquisitions, higher volumes in both segments, the absence of the
prior year charitable contribution and a benefit related to a
Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Recovery Act Employee
Retention Credit. This favorability was partially offset by higher
SG&A expenses related to the 2020 Acquisitions, including
intangible asset amortization, higher manufacturing costs, an
increase in incentive and deferred compensation expenses, the
absence of environmental insurance recoveries recorded in 2020, a
decrease in cost reimbursements, net of related expenses, earned
under an expired transition services agreement with the buyer of
our former international operations and an increase in spending
related to digital growth initiatives. Further offsetting the
favorability is the return of discretionary spending, including
travel, compensation, and outside services that we proactively
reduced in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The prior year also
benefitted from a $21 million gain related to the sale of fixed and
intangible assets. Excluding this gain, operating income increased
11.2% versus the prior year.
Establishing 2022 Outlook“Our
teams did a great job in closing out 2021 and getting us well
positioned for 2022,” said Brian MacNeal, AWI CFO. “We carry
momentum into the new year and expect incremental growth from our
digital, Healthy Spaces and innovation initiatives, supporting our
full year guidance of net sales growth of 10% to 13% and adjusted
EBITDA growth of 10% to 16% versus the prior year. With our strong
balance sheet, we remain committed to our capital allocation
priorities of reinvesting into the business, pursuing strategic
acquisitions and partnerships and returning cash to
shareholders.”

Uncertainties Affecting Forward-Looking
Statements Disclosures in this release, including without
limitation, those relating to future financial results, market
conditions and guidance, the impacts of COVID-19 on our business,
and in our other public documents and comments, contain
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Those statements provide
our future expectations or forecasts and can be identified by our
use of words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,”
“intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “outlook,” “target,” “predict,” “may,”
“will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “seek,” and other words or
phrases of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of
future operating or financial performance. Forward-looking
statements, by their nature, address matters that are uncertain and
involve risks because they relate to events and depend on
circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. As a result,
our actual results may differ materially from our expected results
and from those expressed in our forward-looking statements. A more
detailed discussion of the risks and uncertainties that could cause
our actual results to differ materially from those projected,
anticipated or implied is included in the “Risk Factors” and
“Management’s Discussion and Analysis” sections of our reports on
Form 10-K and 10-Q filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (“SEC”). Forward-looking statements speak only as of the
date they are made. We undertake no obligation to update any
forward-looking statements beyond what is required under applicable
securities law.
COVID-19The impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic on our future consolidated results of operations
remains uncertain. In 2020, we experienced a significant decrease
in customer demand throughout our business during the second
through fourth quarters due to COVID-19. Specifically, we noted
delays in construction driven by temporary closures of
non-essential businesses, with the most significant impacts in the
major metropolitan areas impacted by COVID-19. In response to
COVID-19, we temporarily reduced capital expenditures and
discretionary spending including compensation, travel and marketing
expenses in 2020. Customer demand continued to improve throughout
2021 but remained lower than pre-pandemic levels. We continue to
monitor and manage the impact of COVID-19 and its potential impacts
to our business, most notably global supply chain and labor
disruptions, which have contributed to raw material and
transportation cost inflation, in addition to construction activity
delays.

Supplemental Reconciliations of GAAP to
non-GAAP Results (unaudited) (Amounts in millions, except
per share data)
To supplement its consolidated financial
statements presented in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), the Company
provides additional measures of performance adjusted to exclude the
impact of certain discrete expenses and income including adjusted
net sales, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted diluted earnings per share
(EPS) and adjusted free cash flow. Investors should not consider
non-GAAP measures as a substitute for GAAP measures. The Company
excludes certain acquisition related expenses (i.e. – changes in
the fair value of contingent consideration, deferred compensation
accruals, impact of adjustments related to the fair value of
inventory and deferred revenue) for recent acquisitions. The
deferred compensation accruals are for cash and stock awards that
are recorded over each award's respective vesting period, as such
payments are subject to the sellers’ and employees’ continued
employment with the Company. The Company excludes all
acquisition-related intangible amortization from adjusted earnings
from continuing operations and in calculations of adjusted diluted
earnings per share. Examples of other excluded items include plant
closures, restructuring charges and related costs, impairments,
separation costs, environmental site expenses and related insurance
recoveries, endowment level charitable contributions, and certain
other gains and losses. The Company also excludes income/expense
from its U.S. Retirement Income Plan (“RIP”) in the non-GAAP
results as it represents the actuarial net periodic benefit
credit/cost recorded. For all periods presented, the Company was
not required and did not make cash contributions to the RIP based
on guidelines established by the Pension Benefit Guaranty
Corporation, nor does the Company expect to make cash contributions
to the plan in 2022. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as cash
from operating and investing activities, adjusted to remove the
impact of cash used or proceeds received for acquisitions and
divestitures, environmental site expenses and related insurance
recoveries. The Company believes adjusted free cash flow is useful
because it provides insight into the amount of cash that the
Company generates for discretionary uses, after expenditures for
capital investments and adjustments for acquisitions and
divestitures. The Company uses these adjusted performance measures
in managing the business, including communications with its Board
of Directors and employees, and believes that they provide users of
this financial information with meaningful comparisons of operating
performance between current results and results in prior periods.
The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are
appropriate to enhance understanding of its past performance, as
well as prospects for its future performance. The Company also uses
adjusted EBITDA and adjusted free cash flow as factors in
determining at-risk compensation for senior management. These
non-GAAP measures may not be defined and calculated the same as
similar measures used by other companies. A reconciliation of these
adjustments to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is
included in this release and on the Company’s website. These
non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for the most comparable GAAP measures. Non-GAAP
financial measures utilized by the Company may not be comparable to
non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
In the following charts, numbers may not sum due
to rounding. Non-GAAP figures are rounded to the nearest million
and corresponding percentages are rounded to the nearest percent
based on unrounded figures.
