Executive Commentary – Patrick H. Hawkins, Chief Executive Officer and President:
“For the fourth year in a row we generated record operating income, net income, diluted EPS, and adjusted EBITDA. We achieved record sales of $935 million and adjusted EBITDA of $119 million in fiscal 2023. This strong four-year run has delivered compounded EPS growth of 26% over that timeframe. Our record operating cash flow of $77 million allowed us to continue to pay down debt, with net debt of $104 million and our leverage ratio back below 1x at the end of fiscal 2023. This performance is the result of the hard work by our many employees, our innovative solutions to the opportunities that have arisen, as well as outstanding relationships with our customers and suppliers, which we never take for granted.”
Mr. Hawkins, continued, “Following a year where we saw 30% revenue growth in fiscal 2022, we delivered further revenue growth of 21% in fiscal 2023. Sales in our Industrial and Water Treatment segments increased over the prior year, driven by higher selling prices as a result of higher raw material input costs, as well as our Water Treatment acquisitions in fiscal 2022. Nearly half of the year-over-year growth in our Industrial segment came from our higher-margin food ingredient and pharmaceutical product lines. As we anticipated, sales in our Health and Nutrition segment were relatively flat year over year, as consumer demand for health and immunity products declined from the COVID-bump high, and as our customers work through excess inventory. Largely because of continued raw material cost increases, we recorded a negative LIFO impact of $18.5 million in fiscal 2023, nearly $3 million higher than what we recorded in fiscal 2022. In the last two years, we have been impacted negatively by LIFO in the amount of $34.3 million. Despite this, we recorded net income of $60 million and record EPS of $2.86, both higher than the prior year by 17%.”
Mr. Hawkins continued, "We are extremely proud of what we have accomplished over the past year, and over the past several years. As we look to fiscal 2024, we expect to see continued top and bottom-line growth in our Water Treatment segment because of the investments and acquisitions we have made in that segment. With our expanding geographic footprint, we believe we are well-positioned to continue to see growth in Water Treatment for the foreseeable future. We are cautiously optimistic about our Industrial segment, but we believe economic pressures will continue to weigh on many of our customers and impact demand. In Health and Nutrition, we expect the decline we saw in the latter half of fiscal 2023 to continue through much of fiscal 2024. With the diversity of our businesses and the overall strength of our Company, we believe we will continue to generate strong operating cash flow and will continue to pay down debt during fiscal year 2024."
Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year Financial Highlights:
NET INCOME
For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company reported net income of $11.6 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, compared to net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 of $10.6 million, or $0.50 per diluted share.
For the full year, the Company reported record net income of $60.0 million, or $2.86 per diluted share, compared to net income for fiscal 2022 of $51.5 million, or $2.44 per diluted share.
REVENUE
For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, sales were $228.1 million, an increase of $5.2 million, or 2%, from sales of $223.0 million a year ago, driven primarily by increased selling prices. Fiscal 2022 included an additional week, which we estimated to add approximately $17.5 million in additional sales in the fourth quarter of that year. Industrial segment sales increased $0.3 million, or less than 1%, to $117.7 million for the fourth quarter, as compared to $117.4 million for the same period a year ago. The increase in sales was driven by increased selling prices on many of our products driven by higher costs on many of our raw materials. We estimated the additional week in fiscal 2022 added approximately $10.0 million in additional sales in the Industrial segment in the fourth quarter of that year. Water Treatment segment sales increased $11.4 million, or 19%, to $71.4 million for the fourth quarter, as compared to $60.0 million for the same period a year ago. Sales increased as a result of increased selling prices on many of our products driven by higher costs on many of our raw materials as well as increased sales of our products. We estimated the additional week in fiscal 2022 added approximately $4.0 million in additional sales in the Water Treatment segment in the fourth quarter of that year. Health and Nutrition segment sales decreased $6.5 million, or 14%, to $39.1 million for the fourth quarter, as compared to $45.6 million for the same period a year ago. Decreased sales of our specialty distributed products more than offset an increase in sales of our manufactured products. We estimated the additional week in fiscal 2022 added approximately $3.5 million in additional sales in the Health and Nutrition segment in the fourth quarter of that year.
For fiscal 2023, Industrial segment sales were $470.8 million, an increase of 22% from fiscal 2022 sales of $386.9 million. Water Treatment segment sales were $304.9 million for the year, an increase of 34% over last year’s sales of $228.1 million. Sales for our Health and Nutrition segment were $159.4 million in fiscal 2023, a decrease of less than 1%, from fiscal 2022 sales of $159.5 million. We estimated the additional week in fiscal 2022 added approximately $17.5 million in additional sales in that year.
GROSS PROFIT
Company-wide gross profit for fiscal 2023 increased $18.6 million, or 13%, to $165.1 million, or 18% of sales, from $146.5 million, or 19% of sales, for the same period of the prior year. During fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2022, the LIFO reserve increased, and gross profits decreased, by $18.5 million and $15.8 million, respectively, primarily due to rising raw material costs. We estimated the additional week in fiscal 2022 added approximately $3.6 million in additional gross profit in that year.
Gross profit for the Industrial segment increased $8.5 million, or 14%, to $68.1 million, or 14% of sales, for fiscal 2023, from $59.6 million, or 15% of sales, for fiscal 2022. During fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2022, the LIFO reserve increased, and gross profits decreased, by $12.3 million and $10.4 million, respectively, primarily due to rising raw material costs. Gross profit increased as a result of the increase in sales, partially offset by the unfavorable year-over-year impact of the increased LIFO reserve. We estimated the additional week in fiscal 2022 added approximately $1.9 million in additional gross profit in our Industrial segment that year.
Gross profit for the Water Treatment segment increased $12.6 million, or 23%, to $67.2 million, or 22% of sales, for fiscal 2023, from $54.6 million, or 24% of sales, for fiscal 2022. During fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2022, the LIFO reserve increased, and gross profits decreased, by $6.2 million and $5.4 million, respectively, primarily due to rising raw material costs. Gross profit increased as a result of the increase in sales. We estimated the additional week in fiscal 2022 added approximately $1.0 million in additional gross profit in our Water Treatment segment in that year.
Gross profit for the Health and Nutrition segment decreased $2.5 million, or 8%, to $29.8 million, or 19% of sales, for fiscal 2023, from $32.3 million, or 20% of sales, for fiscal 2022. Gross profit decreased as a result of a product mix shift. We estimated the additional week in fiscal 2022 added approximately $0.7 million in additional gross profit in our Health and Nutrition segment in that year.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses increased $1.7 million to $77.0 million, or 8% of sales, for fiscal 2023 from $75.3 million, or 10% of sales, for fiscal 2022. Included in SG&A expenses for the current fiscal year was a gain of approximately $3.0 million related to the sale of certain assets related to our consumer bleach packaging business. In addition, a year-over-year compensation expense of $0.5 million related to our non-qualified deferred compensation plan reduced SG&A expenses, with the offset in Other Expense. In spite of these decreases in SG&A expense, expenses increased primarily due to the added costs from the acquired business in our Water Treatment segment and increased wages. We estimated the additional week in fiscal 2022 added approximately $1.0 million in additional SG&A expense in that year.
ADJUSTED EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, is an important performance indicator and a key compliance measure under the terms of our credit agreement. An explanation of the computation of adjusted EBITDA is presented below. Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended April 2, 2023 was $27.0 million, an increase of $4.7 million, or 21%, from adjusted EBITDA of $22.3 million for the same period in the prior year. Full-year adjusted EBITDA was $119.1 million, an increase of $19.4 million, or 19%, from adjusted EBITDA of $99.7 million for fiscal 2022. The increase was due to the impact of improved gross profits discussed above.
INCOME TAXES
Our effective tax rate was approximately 27.3% for fiscal 2023 and 26.3% for fiscal 2022. The effective tax rate is impacted by projected levels of annual taxable income, permanent items, and state taxes. The current year increase in the effective tax rate was primarily driven by unfavorable book to tax LIFO differences.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We report our consolidated financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). To assist investors in understanding our financial performance between periods, we have provided certain financial measures not computed according to GAAP, including adjusted EBITDA. This non-GAAP financial measure is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures. The method we use to produce non-GAAP results is not computed according to GAAP and may differ from the methods used by other companies.
Management uses this non-GAAP financial measure internally to understand, manage and evaluate our business and to make operating decisions. Management believes that this non-GAAP financial measure reflects an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results, provides a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting our financial condition and results of operations.
We define adjusted EBITDA as GAAP net income adjusted for the impact of the following: net interest expense resulting from our net borrowing position; income tax expense; non-cash expenses including amortization of intangibles, depreciation, and charges for the employee stock purchase plan and restricted stock grants; and non-recurring items of income or expense, if applicable.

Forward-Looking Statements. Various remarks in this press release constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements include those relating to consumer demand for products containing our ingredients and the impacts of those demands, expectations for results in our business segments and the timing of our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on our current expectations, estimates and projections, and our beliefs and assumptions. Forward-looking statements may be identified by terms, including “anticipate,” “believe,” “can,” “could,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “predict,” “should,” or “will” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terms. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and are difficult to predict. Actual results may vary materially from those contained in forward looking statements based on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, changes in regulation, changes in the labor markets, changes in competition and price pressures, changes in demand and customer requirements or processes for our products, availability of product and disruptions to supplies, interruptions in production resulting from hazards, transportation limitations or other extraordinary events outside our control that may negatively impact our business or the supply chains in which we participate, changes in imported products and tariff levels, the availability of products and the prices at which they are available, the acceptance of new products by our customers and the timing of any such acceptance, and changes in product supplies. Additional information concerning potential factors that could affect future financial results is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 3, 2022, as updated from time to time in amendments and subsequent reports filed with the SEC. Investors should take such risks into account when making investment decisions. Shareholders and other readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which reflect our management’s view only as of the date hereof. We do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements.
