Interline Brands, Inc. Announces Fourth Quarter and Fiscal 2009 Sales and Earnings Results

Jacksonville, Fla. — February 19, 2010 - Interline Brands, Inc. (NYSE: IBI) (“Interline” or the “Company”), a leading distributor and direct marketer of maintenance, repair and operations products, reported sales and earnings for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 25, 2009.

Sales for the fourth quarter of 2009 decreased 8.3% compared to the fourth quarter of 2008.  Earnings per diluted share were $0.19 for the fourth quarter of 2009, a decrease of 14% compared to earnings per diluted share of $0.22 for the same period last year.  Earnings per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2009 included a $0.01 per diluted share charge associated with our ongoing efforts to improve our distribution network.  Earnings per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2008 included a $0.05 per diluted share gain on the early extinguishment of debt and a $0.01 per diluted share charge associated with the closing of certain professional contractor showrooms.

Sales for 2009 decreased 11.4% compared to 2008.  Earnings per diluted share were $0.79 for 2009, a decrease of 37% compared to earnings per diluted share of $1.25 for 2008.

Michael Grebe, Interline’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “In 2009, we carefully evaluated our cost structure, our supply chain, and our go-to-market strategies.  We took decisive action throughout the year to strengthen the operations of our business to better serve our customers and offer greater earnings leverage to our

shareholders over time.”  Mr. Grebe continued, “We executed these initiatives while delivering record free cash flow and strengthening our balance sheet.  For the full year 2009, we generated over $133 million in free cash flow, and paid down $98 million of debt.  We are pleased to close out the year in a stronger financial position than when we entered it, and I am very optimistic about the future of our Company.”

Fourth Quarter 2009 Performance

Sales for the quarter ended December 25, 2009 were $254.6 million, an 8.3% decrease compared to sales of $277.6 million in the comparable 2008 period.  Interline’s facilities maintenance end-market, which comprised 71% of sales, declined 3.7% during the fourth quarter on an average daily sales basis.  The professional contractor end-market, which comprised 17% of sales, declined 20.2% for the quarter.  The specialty distributor end-market, which comprised 12% of sales, declined 15.0% for the quarter.

“Institutional sales were essentially flat compared to the fourth quarter of 2008, driven by the strength of our core MRO and janitorial-sanitation products.  In addition, multi-family housing sales were down approximately 3% for the quarter when excluding our Renovations Plus business, which focuses on larger discretionary multi-family housing remodeling projects,” said Mr. Grebe.

Gross profit decreased $6.0 million, or 5.9%, to $96.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2009, compared to $102.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2008.  As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased 100 basis points to 38.0% compared to 37.0% for the fourth quarter of 2008.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the fourth quarter of 2009 decreased $5.2 million, or 6.4%, to $77.1 million from $82.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2008.  As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses were 30.3% compared to 29.7% for the fourth quarter of 2008.

As a result, fourth quarter 2009 operating income of $14.7 million, or 5.8% of sales, decreased 7.8% compared to $15.9 million, or 5.7% of sales, in the fourth quarter of 2008.

Diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter of 2009 were $0.19, a decrease of 14% compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.22 for the fourth quarter of 2008.

Fiscal Year 2009 Performance

“During 2009 we made significant progress towards streamlining our distribution platform and improving our working capital efficiency.  In 2010, we will continue to pursue our strategy of larger and more productive distribution centers that will enable us to further improve the customer experience and enhance our ability to scale our business as conditions improve,” commented Kenneth D. Sweder, Interline’s Chief Operating Officer.

Sales for the year ended December 25, 2009 were $1.06 billion, an 11.4% decrease compared to sales of $1.20 billion for the year ended December 26, 2008.  Average organic daily sales decreased 12.5% for the year.

Gross profit decreased $55.7 million, or 12.4%, to $394.0 million for the year ended December 25, 2009, compared to $449.6 million in 2008.  As a percentage of net sales, gross profit decreased to 37.2% from 37.6% for the year ended December 26, 2008.

SG&A expenses for the year ended December 25, 2009 were reduced by $27.7 million, or 8.0%, to $316.1 million compared to $343.8 million for the year ended December 26, 2008.  As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses were 29.8% compared to 28.8% in 2008.  SG&A expenses for 2009 include $4.6 million related to the previously announced reduction in force, consolidation of certain distribution centers, and closing of certain underperforming professional contractor showrooms; a $3.0 million charge for bad debt resulting from a customer seeking Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection; and a $0.7 million charge associated with the adoption of a new accounting standard on business combinations.  SG&A expenses for 2008 include $3.0 million of costs related to employee separation benefits and the closing of certain professional contractor showrooms.

Operating income was $59.2 million, or 5.6% of sales, for the year ended December 25, 2009 compared to $89.0 million, or 7.4% of sales, for the year ended December 26, 2008, a 33.4% decrease.

Earnings per diluted share were $0.79 for the year ended December 25, 2009, a decrease of 37% compared to earnings per diluted share of $1.25 for the year ended December 26, 2008.

Cash flow from operating activities for the year ended December 25, 2009 was $144.3 million compared to $56.2 million for the year ended December 26, 2008. During the year ended December 25, 2009, the Company repaid $98.0 million of debt.

Business Outlook

Mr. Grebe stated, “We believe the worst may now be behind us, but visibility remains low and we anticipate continued variability within our end-markets.  Looking ahead to the first quarter of 2010, we expect the demand environment to remain similar to what we experienced over the past few months.”

“While cash flow generation remains a key focus for us, we do not expect to duplicate the record free cash flow we generated in 2009 as we enter the year leaner and more efficient from a working capital perspective.  However, we will continue to carefully manage our working capital, which in combination with our more streamlined distribution network, will yield productivity gains over time.  I am proud of the dedication and leadership that my teammates displayed in 2009, and I am encouraged by our execution of key efficiency actions, all aimed at strengthening our position in 2010 and beyond.”

Free Cash Flow

We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities, as defined under US GAAP, less capital expenditures. We believe that free cash flow is an important measure of our liquidity and therefore our ability to reduce debt and make strategic investments after considering the capital expenditures necessary to operate the business. We use free cash flow in the evaluation of the Company’s business performance. A limitation of this measure, however, is that it does not reflect payments made in connection with investments and acquisitions, which reduce liquidity. To compensate for this limitation, management evaluates its investments and acquisitions through other return on capital measures.

Daily Sales Calculations

(1) Average daily sales are defined as sales for a period of time divided by the number of shipping days in that period of time.

(2) Average organic daily sales are defined as sales for a period of time divided by the number of shipping days in that period of time excluding any sales from acquisitions made subsequent to the beginning of the prior year period.

Average organic daily sales is presented herein because we believe it to be relevant and useful information to our investors since it is used by management to evaluate the operating performance of our business, as adjusted to exclude the impact of acquisitions, and compare our organic operating performance with that of our competitors. However, average organic daily sales is not a measure of financial performance under US GAAP and it should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with US GAAP, such as net sales. Management utilizes average organic daily sales as an operating performance measure in conjunction with US GAAP measures such as net sales.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA differs from Consolidated EBITDA per our credit facility agreement for purposes of determining our net leverage ratio. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income plus interest expense (income), net, (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt, provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is presented herein because we believe it to be relevant and useful information to our investors since it is consistently used by our management to evaluate the operating performance of our business and to compare our operating performance with that of our competitors. Management also uses Adjusted EBITDA for planning purposes, including the preparation of annual operating budgets, and to determine appropriate levels of operating and capital investments. Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain items, which we believe are not indicative of our core operating results. We therefore utilize Adjusted EBITDA as a useful alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance compared to the Company’s plan. However, Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under US GAAP. Accordingly, Adjusted EBITDA should not be used in isolation or as a substitute for other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with US GAAP, such as gross margin, operating income, net income, cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities or other income or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with US GAAP. While we believe that some of the items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are not indicative of our core operating results, these items do impact our income statement, and management therefore utilizes Adjusted EBITDA as an operating performance measure in conjunction with US GAAP measures, such as gross margin, operating income, net income, cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities or other income or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with US GAAP.
