"We are pleased with our business momentum to start the year," commented Billy D. Prim, Primo Water's Chief Executive Officer. "In the first quarter, we generated solid net sales and increased adjusted EBITDA, largely driven by an increase in Water segment net sales and the inclusion of Glacier Water. Our team is executing at a high-level and we are progressing ahead of schedule on our integration plans and synergy realization. Based upon these results, we are raising our full year Adjusted EBITDA 2017 outlook. Going forward, we remain focused on the execution of our strategic plan to further grow our business and, in turn, drive long-term value for our shareholders.”
First Quarter Results
Net sales increased 88% to $60.7 million from $32.3 million in the prior year quarter, driven by an increase in Water segment net sales. Water segment net sales increased 137% to $53.1 million from $22.4 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in Water net sales was primarily due to the inclusion of Glacier results for the quarter. Dispenser segment net sales decreased 23% to $7.6 million from $9.9 million in the prior year quarter, due to the shift in shipments from the first quarter to future quarters. Sell-thru of dispenser units was 143,000 units.
Gross margin percentage increased to 29.5%, from 28.9% in the prior year quarter. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $10.5 million compared to $5.0 million in the prior year quarter. The increase is primarily the result of the Glacier acquisition as well as an increase in non-cash stock compensation expense of $1.8 million. Excluding all non-cash stock compensation expense, SG&A decreased to 13.5% as a percent of net sales from 13.9% in the prior year quarter.
U.S. GAAP net loss from continuing operations was $(11.9) million, or ($0.37) per diluted share compared to income from continuing operations of $1.0 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, in the prior year quarter, due to non-recurring and one-time charges. Adjusted net loss from continuing operations was ($1.7) million or ($0.05) per diluted share compared to adjusted net income of $2.0 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, in the prior year quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA increased 99% to $9.8 million from $4.9 million in the prior year quarter, driven by the increase in net sales and sales mix.
2017 Outlook Raised
For the second quarter of 2017, the Company expects revenues of $72.0 million to $75.0 million and adjusted EBITDA of $12.8 million to $14.3 million.
The Company now expects its 2017 outlook for adjusted EBITDA to be $53.0 million to $55.0 million, increased from $52.0 million to $54.0 million.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements contained herein are not based on historical fact and are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the applicable securities laws and regulations. These statements include the Company’s financial guidance and those related to the Company’s focus on the execution of its strategic plan to further grow its business and, in turn, drive long-term value for its shareholders, and the shift in shipments of dispensers from the first quarter to future quarters. These statements can otherwise be identified by the use of words such as "anticipate," "believe," "could," "estimate," "expect," "feel," "forecast," "intend," "may," "plan," "potential," "project," “seek,” "should," "would,” “will,” and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Owing to the uncertainties inherent in forward-looking statements, actual results could differ materially from those stated herein. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, adverse changes in the Company's relationships with its independent bottlers, distributors and suppliers, the loss of major retail customers of the Company or the reduction in volume or change in timing of purchases by major retail customers, lower than anticipated consumer and retailer acceptance of and demand for the Company's products and services, the entry of a competitor with greater resources into the marketplace, competition and other business conditions in the water and water dispenser industries in general, the Company’s experiencing product liability, product recall or higher than anticipated rates of sales returns associated with product quality or safety issues, the loss of key Company personnel, dependence on key management information systems, changes in the regulatory framework governing the Company's business, the Company's inability to efficiently expand operations and capacity to meet growth, the Company's inability to develop, introduce and produce new product offerings within the anticipated timeframe or at all, the Company’s inability to comply with its covenants in its credit facility, significant liabilities or costs associated with litigation or other legal proceedings, general economic conditions, the possible adverse effects that decreased discretionary consumer spending may have on the Company’s business, difficulties with the successful integration and realization of the anticipated benefits and synergies from the Glacier Water acquisition, including incorporation of internal controls and critical information technology systems such as management information systems and related tools, failure to manage our expanded operations following the Glacier Water acquisition, the incurrence of costs related to the Glacier Water acquisition, changes to the Company’s board of directors and management in connection with the Glacier Water acquisition, the impact of the loss or non-retention of certain key personnel after the Glacier Water acquisition, the termination or renegotiation of agreements with customers, suppliers and other business partners in connection with the Glacier Water acquisition, the possibility that the Company’s financial results following the Glacier Water acquisition may differ materially from the unaudited pro forma financial statements that have been made available, the restrictions imposed upon our business as a result the restrictive covenants contained in our credit agreements, the possibility that we may fail to generate sufficient cash flow to service our debt obligations, and the negative effects that global capital and credit market issues may have on our liquidity, the costs of our borrowing and our operations of our suppliers, bottlers, distributors and customers as well as other risks described more fully in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 16, 2017 and its subsequent filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements reflect management's analysis as of the date of this press release. The Company does not undertake to revise these statements to reflect subsequent developments, other than in its regular, quarterly earnings releases or as otherwise required by applicable securities laws.
Use of Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement its financial statements, the Company provides investors with information related to adjusted EBITDA and pro forma net income from continuing operations, which are not financial measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as (loss) income from continuing operations before depreciation and amortization; interest expense, net; provision for income taxes; non-cash change in fair value of the warrant liability; non-cash stock-based compensation expense; non-recurring and acquisition-related costs; and and (gain) loss on disposal and impairment of property and equipment and other. Adjusted net (loss) income from continuing operations is defined as income from continuing operations less change in fair value of the warrant liability, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, non-recurring and acquisition-related costs, and (gain) loss on disposal and impairment of property. The Company believes these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Management uses these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures to compare the Company's performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses and planning purposes. These non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are also presented to the Company’s board of directors and adjusted EBITDA is used in its credit agreements.
Non-U.S. GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-U.S. GAAP measures exclude significant expenses that are required by U.S. GAAP to be recorded in the Company's financial statements and are subject to inherent limitations.
