    COLMAR, Pa., Feb. 22, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dorman Products, Inc. (the “Company” or “Dorman”) (NASDAQ:DORM), a leading supplier in the automotive aftermarket industry, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter ended December 25, 2021.

    Fourth Quarter Financial Results
    Dorman reported quarterly net sales in the fourth quarter of 2021 of $398.2 million, up 32% compared to net sales of $301.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2020. The strong net sales performance in the quarter reflected robust customer demand across all of the Company’s customer channels and was underpinned by a full quarter impact of recently acquired Dayton Parts. Year-over-year net sales growth, excluding Dayton Parts, was 15% compared to the fourth quarter of 2020, and 45% compared to the fourth quarter of 2019.

    Gross profit was $131.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, or 33.0% of net sales, compared to $111.4 million, or 37.0% of net sales for the same quarter last year. Adjusted gross margin* was 34.6% in the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to 37.0% in the same quarter last year. Dayton Parts had a 90bps dilutive impact on adjusted gross margin* in the fourth quarter. During the quarter, we continued to experience broad-based inflationary cost impacts due to global transportation and logistics constraints as well as material commodity and wage rate pressures. Dorman implemented cost-saving initiatives and price increases to offset the inflationary cost increases experienced during the year that maintained gross profit dollars, but resulted in a lower gross margin percentage.

    Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $86.3 million, or 21.7% of net sales, in the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to $65.5 million, or 21.7% of net sales, in the same quarter last year. Adjusted SG&A expenses* were $82.3 million, or 20.7% of net sales, in the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to $62.3 million, or 20.7% of net sales, in the same quarter last year. Year-over-year, SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales in the quarter were flat as leverage from the increase in net sales was offset by wage and benefits inflation.

    Income tax expense was $9.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, or 22.4% of income before income taxes, compared to $10.0 million, or 21.8% of income before income taxes, recorded in the same quarter last year. The higher tax rate was primarily driven by higher state income taxes.

    Net income for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $34.1 million, or $1.07 per diluted share, compared to $36.0 million, or $1.11 per diluted share, in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted net income* in the fourth quarter of 2021 was $42.1 million, or $1.33 per diluted share, compared to $38.3 million, or $1.19 per diluted share, in the prior-year quarter.

    Fiscal Year Financial Results
    Fiscal 2021 net sales were $1,345.2 million, up 23% compared to net sales of $1,092.7 million in fiscal 2020. Year-over-year net sales growth, excluding Dayton Parts, was 16% compared to fiscal 2020.

    Net income for fiscal 2021 was $131.5 million, or $4.12 per diluted share, compared to $106.9 million, or $3.30 per diluted share, for the prior year. Adjusted net income* in fiscal 2021 was $148.4 million, or $4.64 per diluted share, compared to $111.6 million, or $3.45 per diluted share, for the prior year.

    Kevin Olsen, Dorman’s President and Chief Executive Officer stated, “First and foremost, I would like to thank all of our Contributors whose continued dedication and commitment to our customers enabled us to deliver record-breaking results for the quarter and the full year. We recorded record-high net sales and adjusted diluted EPS* during the fourth quarter, driven by robust customer demand across all our channels, as the underlying aftermarket industry fundamentals remain strong, combined with execution against our strategic priorities. I am very pleased that our business was able to meet our full-year guidance for both the top and bottom lines despite the challenging headwinds we faced in the second half of 2021 from inflation, tight labor conditions, and global supply chain disruptions. We also maintained our commitment to bringing new and innovative solutions to the aftermarket, as evidenced by a 24% increase in new products launched during 2021. Key highlights of our new product launches include three new OE FIX™ products: loaded magnetic struts, steering wobble repair kits, and multiple displacement solenoids. OE FIX™ products are exclusive and only offered in the marketplace by Dorman, demonstrating our industry-leading capabilities. We are also very pleased with our ability to train over 50,000 automotive repair technicians in 2021 as part of our initiatives to raise product awareness and strengthen the Dorman brand. Additionally, the integration of Dayton Parts is on schedule and their fourth quarter financial results exceeded our expectations. This acquisition, which we completed in the third quarter of 2021, accelerates our Heavy Duty growth strategy and is highly complementary to our existing Heavy Duty product line.

    “I am proud of how our organization is working together to service the robust customer demand we continue to experience despite a very challenging environment that has impacted fulfillment levels and increased our costs. To address the increased costs associated with these inflationary challenges, we continue to drive cost savings through the Company’s efforts to streamline its end-to-end supply chain processes, and we have also executed pass-through pricing actions. As a result, we remain confident in our ability to offset the gross margin dollar impact of the higher inflationary costs we are experiencing. Our strong, long-standing relationships with our suppliers and logistics partners, combined with the deep experience of our Contributors located both in the U.S. and abroad, gives us confidence in our ability to successfully manage through this market volatility.”

    2022 Guidance

     2022 Fiscal Year
    Net Sales$1,600 - $1,640 million
    Growth vs 202119% - 22%
    Diluted EPS$4.94 - $5.14
    Growth vs 202120% - 25%
    Adjusted Diluted EPS*$5.35 - $5.55
    Growth vs 202115% - 20%
    Tax Rate Estimate22.5%


    The Company expects full-year 2022 net sales from $1,600 million to $1,640 million, representing growth of 19% - 22% over 2021 net sales. The Company also expects 2022 diluted EPS of $4.94 to $5.14, reflecting an increase of 20% - 25% year-over-year, and adjusted diluted EPS* of $5.35 to $5.55, reflecting an increase of 15% - 20% year-over-year.

    The Company’s fiscal year ends on the last Saturday of the calendar year. For the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, this results in a 53-week period. For the fiscal year ended December 25, 2021, the Company had a 52-week period. The impact of the extra week on 2022 guidance is projected to contribute 1% to net sales growth and $0.05 to both diluted EPS and adjusted diluted EPS and is included in our 2022 guidance.

    The Company’s guidance includes the impact of the Dayton Parts acquisition but excludes any potential impacts from future acquisitions or further possible government-mandated shutdowns or supply chain disruptions caused by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Finally, the Company’s guidance assumes a 22.5% tax rate and does not include any share repurchases that may take place in 2022.

    Mr. Olsen continued, “Our 2022 guidance reflects our belief that the aftermarket industry dynamics will remain strong throughout the year. Despite that strength, we also anticipate continued inflationary cost pressures from global transportation and logistics constraints, labor availability, and higher commodity and wage rate costs. To offset those pressures, we expect to execute further pricing and cost improvement actions, if necessary, to protect gross margin dollars. Finally, our balance sheet and liquidity remain strong, and we are well-positioned to continue to execute on our strategic priorities.”

    Share Repurchases
    During the quarter ended December 25, 2021, Dorman repurchased 71,121 shares of its common stock for $7.4 million at an average share price of $104.49. The Company has $145.6 million remaining under its current share repurchase authorization.

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures
    (in thousands, except per-share amounts)

    Our financial results include certain financial measures not derived in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Non-GAAP financial measures should not be used as a substitute for GAAP measures, or considered in isolation, for the purpose of analyzing our operating performance, financial position or cash flows. Additionally, these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. However, we have presented these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe this presentation, when reconciled to the corresponding GAAP measure, provides useful information to investors by offering additional ways of viewing our results, profitability trends, and underlying growth relative to prior and future periods and to our peers. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating, and planning decisions and in evaluating our performance. Non-GAAP financial measures may reflect adjustments for charges such as fair value adjustments, amortization, transaction costs, severance, accelerated depreciation, and other similar expenses related to acquisitions as well as other items that we believe are not related to our ongoing performance.

    [1] – Pretax acquisition-related intangible asset amortization results from allocating the purchase price of acquisitions to the acquired tangible and intangible assets of the acquired business and recognizing the cost of the intangible asset over the period of benefit. Such costs were $3.5 million pretax (or $2.7 million after tax) during the three months ended December 25, 2021 and $6.3 million pretax (or $4.8 million after tax) during the twelve months ended December 25, 2021 and were included in selling, general and administrative expenses. Such costs were $0.8 million pretax (or $0.6 million after tax) during the three months ended December 26, 2020, and $3.2 million pretax (or $2.4 million after tax) during the twelve months ended December 26, 2020 and were included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

    [2] – Pretax acquisition-related transaction and other costs include costs incurred to complete and integrate acquisitions, adjustments to contingent consideration obligations, inventory fair value adjustments and facility consolidation expenses. During the three months and twelve months ended December 25, 2021, we incurred charges included in cost of goods sold for integration costs, other facility consolidation expenses and inventory fair value adjustments of $6.4 million pretax (or $4.9 million after tax) and $9.4 million pretax (or $7.3 million after tax), respectively. During the three months and twelve months ended December 25, 2021, we incurred charges included in selling, general and administrative expenses to complete and integrate acquisitions as well as accretion expenses related to contingent consideration obligations of $0.5 million pretax (or $0.4 million after tax) and $5.6 million pretax (or $4.8 million after tax), respectively.

    During the three months and twelve months ended December 26, 2020, we incurred charges included in cost of goods sold for integration costs, severance, other facility consolidation expenses and inventory fair value adjustments of $0.0 million pretax (or $0.0 million after tax) and $0.9 million pretax (or $0.7 million after tax), respectively. During the three months and twelve months ended December 26, 2020, we incurred charges included in selling, general and administrative expenses to complete and integrate acquisitions as well as accretion expenses related to contingent consideration obligations of $2.3 million pretax (or $1.7 million after tax) and $3.6 million pretax (or $2.7 million after tax), respectively.

    [3] – Pretax gain on equity method investment results from the acquisition of the remaining outstanding shares of a previously unconsolidated entity. The estimated fair value of the net assets acquired was more than the carry value of our prior investment in the entity. Such gain was $2.5 million pretax (or $1.9 million after tax) during the twelve months ended December 26, 2020 and was included in other income, net.

    [4] – Pretax noncash impairment related to equity method investment represents our share of an impairment recognized by an equity investment investee. The adjustment was $2.1 million (or $1.6 million after tax) during both the three months and twelve months ended December 26, 2020.

    [5] – Tax adjustments represent the aggregate tax effect of all non-GAAP adjustments reflected in the table above, and totaled $(2.4) million and $(4.6) million during the three months and twelve months ended December 25, 2021, respectively, and $(0.8) million and $(1.8) million during the three months and twelve months ended December 26, 2020, respectively. Such items are estimated by applying our statutory tax rate to the pretax amount, or an actual tax amount for discrete items.

    [6] – Tax benefit represents a reversal of a deferred tax liability related to an equity method investment which was converted to a consolidated subsidiary upon acquisition of the controlling interest. The benefit was $0.8 million during the twelve months ended December 26, 2020.
