USG Corporation Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2015 Results
February 5, 2016 | By Business Wire News
CHICAGO
USG Corporation (NYSE:USG), a leading building products company, today reported results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2015. “We finished 2015 on a strong note by achieving impressive margin expansion in our Gypsum and Ceilings businesses,” said James S. Metcalf, Chairman, President, and CEO. “Improved pricing in both businesses, coupled with our cost discipline, drove this increased performance.”
On a consolidated basis in the fourth quarter of 2015, net sales were $925 million, compared to $954 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. Foreign currency unfavorably impacted net sales by $18 million in the fourth quarter of 2015.
USG generated $812 million in net income and $5.51 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2015, $731 million and $4.96 of which was driven by the release of an income tax valuation allowance. This compares to a net loss of $53 million and $0.36 loss per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2014. On an adjusted basis, net income of $62 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.42 in the fourth quarter of 2015 increased from $31 million and $0.21, respectively, in the fourth quarter of 2014. Foreign currency unfavorably impacted consolidated net income by $8 million in the fourth quarter of 2015. A full reconciliation of GAAP to adjusted metrics is set forth on a schedule attached hereto.
The corporation’s Gypsum segment generated $93 million of operating profit in the fourth quarter of 2015. On an adjusted basis, operating profit of $77 million in the Gypsum segment improved by $9 million over the fourth quarter of 2014, led by the US Gypsum business which realized 240 basis points of improved operating margins. The wallboard business provided $1 million of this improvement, while the surfaces and substrates business drove $5 million of improved profit and lower SG&A spending contributed $6 million in incremental profit. Improved operating performance of $3 million in Canada and Mexico was more than offset by the impact of $6 million of unfavorable foreign currency.
The Ceilings segment earned $19 million of operating profit in the fourth quarter of 2015 compared to $18 million of operating profit in the fourth quarter of 2014. Stronger pricing in all tile categories was the primary driver of record fourth quarter margins of 16.7% in the US Ceiling business. The impact of an improved cost position in ceilings products was offset by lower volumes.
The Distribution segment earned $5 million of operating profit in the fourth quarter of 2015 compared to $7 million of operating profit in the fourth quarter of 2014. Same store sales increased 3%. Improved volumes were more than offset by higher costs.
The USG Boral business generated $15 million of adjusted equity method income in the fourth quarter of 2015 compared to $14 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. This $1 million of improved performance was driven by $6 million of operational improvement offset by the impact of $2 million of unfavorable foreign currency and the absence of a $3 million insurance recovery recorded in the fourth quarter of 2014.
USG recorded full year 2015 net sales of $3.8 billion, net income of $991 million, and diluted earnings per share of $6.73. On an adjusted basis, the corporation generated full year 2015 net sales of $3.8 billion, net income of $259 million, and diluted earnings per share of $1.76. For comparative purposes, on an adjusted basis, USG recorded net sales of $3.6 billion, net income of $146 million, and diluted earnings per share of $1.00 for the full year of 2014. 2015 sales and adjusted net income include the unfavorable impact of foreign currency of $65 million and $28 million, respectively.
“In 2015, we realized operating margin expansion in all of our businesses and generated the most earnings since 2006 when demand was fifty percent higher,” Mr. Metcalf said. “With growth expected in every market that we serve, a continued focus on controlling costs, and our commitment to innovative new products, I’m excited for what lies ahead in 2016.”
A conference call is being held today at 8:00 A.M. Central Time during which USG senior management will discuss the corporation’s operating results. The conference call will be webcast on the USG website, www.usg.com, in the Investor Relations section. The dial-in number for the conference call is 1-800-315-2944 in the United States and Canada (1-847-413-2929 for other international callers), and the pass code is 41308777.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In this press release, the corporation’s financial results are provided both in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and using certain non-GAAP financial measures. In particular, the corporation presents the non-GAAP financial measures adjusted operating profit, adjusted equity income from USG Boral Building Products, impacts of foreign currency on current period results using prior period translation rates, adjusted net income, adjusted net sales, and adjusted earnings per diluted share, which exclude certain items. The non-GAAP financial measures are included as a complement to results provided in accordance with GAAP because management believes these non-GAAP financial measures help investors’ ability to analyze underlying trends in the corporation’s business, evaluate its performance relative to other companies in its industry and provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of the corporation’s core operating results. In addition, adjusted operating profit includes the income from the corporation’s equity method investments, including USG Boral Building Products, because management views the joint ventures as a business unit, even though the corporation’s share of the joint venture is 50%. In addition, the corporation uses adjusted operating profit and adjusted net income as components in the measurement of incentive compensation. Adjusted results also exclude results from Gypsum Transportation Limited (GTL), a shipping operation that the corporation has exited. The non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results and may vary from others in the industry. For further information related to the corporation’s use of non-GAAP financial measures, and reconciliations to the nearest GAAP measures, see the schedules attached hereto.
