Flexsteel Announces Double Digit Sales Growth and Record Earnings

DUBUQUE, Iowa--(BUSINESS WIRE)--February 5, 2013--Flexsteel Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ:FLXS) today reported net sales of $185.8 million, a 12% increase for the six month period ended December 31, 2012 as compared to the prior year six month period. Residential net sales were $148.9 million in the current six month period, an increase of 15% from the prior year six month period of $129.5 million. Commercial net sales were approximately $37.0 million in the current and prior year six month periods.

The Company reported record net income of $5.8 million or $0.80 per share for the six month period ended December 31, 2012 compared to $5.3 million or $0.76 per share for the prior six month period.

For the quarter ended December 31, 2012 net sales were $94.6 million, an 11% increase over prior year quarter net sales of $85.0 million. Residential net sales were $76.6 million in the current quarter, an increase of 14% from the prior year quarter of $67.0 million. Commercial net sales were approximately $18.0 million in the current and prior year quarters.

The Company reported net income of $2.9 million or $0.40 per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 compared to $2.9 million or $0.42 per share for the prior year quarter.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were 19.2% and 18.8% of net sales for the quarter and six month period ended December 31, 2012, respectively, and include $0.7 million, or $0.06 per share, for employment inducement costs. Excluding these costs, SG&A was 18.4% for the current year quarter compared to 18.6% for the prior year quarter and 18.4% compared to 18.7% for the six month periods ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Working capital (current assets less current liabilities) at December 31, 2012 was $105.8 million compared to $103.7 million at June 30, 2012. Changes in working capital from June 30, 2012 to December 31, 2012 include a reduction in cash of $5.8 million offset by increases in inventory of $5.0 million, other current assets of $1.9 million and accounts receivable of $0.5 million, and a reduction in current liabilities of $0.4 million. The higher inventory levels support the increases in residential sales volume and expanded product offerings.

The decrease in cash of $5.8 million during the first six months of fiscal year 2013 reflects net cash provided by operating activities of $2.1 million, capital expenditures of $4.9 million and payment of three quarterly dividends totaling $3.1 million. The Company expects that capital expenditures will be approximately $1.0 million for the remainder of fiscal year 2013.

All earnings per share amounts are on a diluted basis.

Outlook

The Company believes that moderate top line growth will continue through the end of fiscal year 2013. Residential growth will continue with existing customers and products, and through expanding our product portfolio and customer base. The Company expects current order trends for commercial products to continue for the remainder of the fiscal year. The Company is confident in its ability to take advantage of market opportunities. However, our optimism is tempered due to economic uncertainty and its impact on the consumers’ confidence and willingness to buy.

The Company remains committed to its core strategies, which include a wide range of quality product offerings and price points to the residential and commercial markets, combined with a conservative approach to business. We will maintain our focus on a strong balance sheet through emphasis on cash flow and improving profitability. We believe these core strategies are in the best interest of our shareholders.
