Susser Holdings Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2013 Results


- Same-store merchandise sales up 2.4% in 4Q, 3.0% for full year
- Retail merchandise margin of 34.4% in 4Q, 33.9% for full year
- Average retail fuel gallons per store increased 7.8% in 4Q, 5.8% for full year
- A record 29 new Stripes® stores opened in 2013, 13 currently under construction

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas, Feb. 26, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Susser Holdings Corporation (NYSE: SUSS) today reported financial and operating results for the three- and 12-month periods ended December 29, 2013.  Results detailed below include the results of Susser Petroleum Partners LP (NYSE: SUSP) unless otherwise noted.

Same-store merchandise sales increased 2.4 percent in the fourth quarter of 2013, versus growth of 5.8 percent in the same quarter of 2012. Average retail gallons sold per store increased 7.8 percent compared with growth of 3.1 percent in the fourth quarter of 2012.  Retail net merchandise margin increased to 34.4 percent, up from 34.1 percent in the prior-year period.

Retail fuel margin before credit card expense averaged 14.6 cents per gallon, versus 21.1 cents per gallon in the fourth quarter of 2012.  That compares to an average fourth quarter retail fuel margin of 14.4 cents per gallon over the previous five years, calculated as if the 3-cent-per-gallon mark-up charged by Susser Petroleum Partners had been in place for the entire period.

Net income attributable to Susser Holdings was $5.9 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, versus net income of $10.6 million, or $0.49 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2012.

Adjusted EBITDA(1) totaled $37.3 million, down 18.0 percent from a year earlier. Consolidated gross profit totaled $156.9 million, roughly flat compared with the fourth quarter of 2012.  These results primarily reflect growth in merchandise and gallons sold, offset by lower retail fuel margins.

Fourth quarter consolidated revenues totaled $1.5 billion, up 9.2 percent from a year earlier.  This increase was the result of an 8.9 percent increase in merchandise sales, a 5.4 percent increase in retail fuel revenues and a 16.1 percent increase in wholesale fuel revenues from third parties.  The positive revenue impact of higher fuel volumes sold was partially offset by lower per-gallon selling prices, particularly in the retail segment.

"During 2013 we achieved several important milestones, including our 25th consecutive year of positive same-store retail merchandise sales growth. We announced two tuck-in acquisitions that will contribute to the growth of both Susser Holdings and Susser Petroleum Partners, and the opening of a record 29 new large-format Stripes® locations in Texas," said Sam L. Susser , Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

"We are very pleased with our most recent acquisition, the Sac-N-Pac™ retail convenience stores serving communities in the fast-growing I-35 corridor in South Central Texas and a related wholesale fuel supply business.  We have completed the integration of those businesses into our organization and our back office systems, and they are performing well, due to the quality of the real estate and the 'can do' attitude of the Sac-N-Pac and Stripes team members who drove the smooth transition. This transaction is expected to be accretive to both the Company and the Partnership.

"We feel very confident about the long-term growth potential in our key markets in Central Texas, where job growth and major capital investments are creating strong opportunities to expand both our retail and wholesale businesses," Susser added.

New Convenience Store and Wholesale Business Update

Susser Holdings opened nine new large-format Stripes convenience stores during the fourth quarter.  Three smaller stores were closed, a fourth was razed and is being rebuilt on the existing location, and a fifth store was converted to a wholesale dealer location during the fourth quarter. For the full year, the Company opened a record 29 new stores and closed, rebuilt or converted eight stores.  At year-end the Company operated a total of 580 Stripes stores, of which 376 include a restaurant.  13 new stores are currently under construction. In addition to the purchase of the 47 Sac-N-Pac locations, the Company expects to open a total of 27 to 33 Stripes stores this year and continues to acquire additional land for future store development.

Eight new contracted sites were added in the wholesale segment in the fourth quarter, and four were discontinued for a total of 591 contracted branded sites as of December 31, 2013.  This included 99 consignment locations and 492  independent branded dealer contracts.  Susser added a total of 32 new dealer sites in 2013 and discontinued 20.  In 2014, in addition to the 20 new dealer sites acquired in the Sac-N-Pac transaction, Susser currently expects to add 28 to 45 new wholesale branded dealers and consignment sites.

As previously reported, Susser Holdings completed the acquisition in late January of the convenience store assets and fuel distribution contracts of Sac-N-Pac Stores, Inc. and 3W Warren Fuels, Ltd.  3W Warren Fuels supplied approximately 65 million gallons of motor fuel annually to the 47 Sac-N-Pac locations and to approximately 20 independent dealer locations.  The total purchase price was approximately $88 million plus inventories. Susser plans to initially operate all of the 47 stores under the Sac-N-Pac brand. Over the next six to eighteen months, Susser may convert some of the sites to the Stripes brand, may add the Laredo Taco Company brand to certain locations or may elect to convert some sites to the Company's wholesale dealer network.

Financing Update

Susser Holdings and Susser Petroleum Partners completed a sale leaseback transaction for three new Stripes locations during the fourth quarter for a total cost of $11.9 million.  In total, Susser completed sale leaseback transactions for 25 stores in 2013.  So far in the first quarter of 2014, Susser has completed sale leasebacks for five additional stores at a cost of $19.5 million.  Since the initial public offering of units in Susser Petroleum Partners was completed in September 2012, Susser has completed sale leaseback transactions for a total of 38 newly built stores at a cumulative cost of $152.7 million.

Total consolidated debt at year-end was $375.9 million.   In December 2013, SUSP increased its revolving credit facility from $250 million to $400 million while retaining the ability to increase it by another $100 million.    Combined availability on our revolving credit facilities, after borrowings and letter of credit commitments, was $543.1 million.

Fourth Quarter Financial and Operating Highlights

Merchandise - Merchandise sales totaled $262.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, up 8.9 percent from a year ago.  Approximately $5.7 million of the increase came from stores that have been open a year or more, with the remainder from 29 stores that were opened during the last four quarters.  Same-store merchandise sales rose 2.4 percent, versus an increase of 5.8 percent in the fourth quarter of 2012. Sales from food service and snacks were the biggest contributors of the sales growth.

Net merchandise margin as a percentage of sales was 34.4 percent, up from 34.1 percent a year ago.    Merchandise gross profit was $90.2 million, an increase of 9.7 percent from the fourth quarter of 2012.  Gross profit growth was led by $6.1 million contribution from new stores and by same-store increases from food service and snacks.

Retail Fuel - Retail fuel volumes increased 12.3 percent from a year earlier to 237.3 million gallons.  Average gallons sold per store were 7.8 percent higher than a year ago, at approximately 32,100 gallons per week.  Retail fuel revenues totaled $756.8 million, up 5.4 percent from the fourth quarter of the previous year, reflecting the increase in gallons sold, partly offset by a 21-cent-per-gallon decline in the average selling price of motor fuel versus the fourth quarter of 2012.

Retail fuel gross margin averaged 14.6 cents per gallon, versus 21.1 cents per gallon a year earlier.  After deducting credit card expense, the net fuel margin was 9.3 cents per gallon for the fourth quarter, compared with 15.6 cents per gallon in the prior-year period.  Retail fuel gross profit was $34.7 million, down 22.3 percent year-over-year as a result of the lower margin per gallon, partly offset by higher volumes sold.

Wholesale Fuel - Susser's wholesale segment includes all of SUSP's operations plus the consignment sales and transportation business that were not contributed to SUSP in the 2012 IPO.  Wholesale fuel volumes sold to third parties - which includes all gallons except those distributed to Susser's retail stores - were up 18.2 percent from the fourth quarter of 2012 to 177.2 million gallons. Wholesale fuel revenues increased 16.1 percent year-over-year to $505.0 million.  This increase reflects the impact of the significantly higher volumes sold, partly offset by a 5-cent-per-gallon sales price reduction compared with the fourth quarter of 2012.

Wholesale fuel gross margin from third parties was 6.3 cents per gallon, the same as the year-earlier quarter.  Wholesale fuel gross profit, including sales to Stripes, increased by 15.7 percent year-over-year to $18.3 million.  The gross profit increase was primarily the result of the increase in gallons sold, including the impact of the Gainesville Fuel acquisition for a full quarter.

Full Year 2013 Financial and Operating Highlights

For the full year 2013, Susser's same-store merchandise sales rose 3.0 percent. Consolidated revenues increased 5.8 percent to $6.2 billion, driven by increases in merchandise sales and retail and wholesale fuel revenues. Merchandise sales totaled $1.1 billion, an increase of 9.2 percent from 2012.  Merchandise margin was 33.9 percent, unchanged from the prior year.

Retail fuel margin was 16.9 cents per gallon for the full year, versus 21.8 cents in 2012.  On a comparable basis adjusting for the 3-cent-per-gallon mark-up that Stripes now pays to SUSP, average retail margin for 2012 was 19.6 cents and for the previous five years was 16.7 cents per gallon.  After deducting credit card expense, 2013 net fuel margin was 11.4 cents per gallon, compared with 16.3 cents per gallon in 2012.  Wholesale fuel margin was 6.6 cents per gallon, versus 6.2 cents per gallon in the prior-year period.

Adjusted EBITDA(1) for the full year totaled $169.0 million, down 7.6 percent from 2012. Gross profit totaled $644.2 million, an increase of 5.4 percent, due to approximately $32 million contribution from new stores opened in the prior 12 months and the impact of increased merchandise and fuel volumes at existing stores and wholesale third-party sales, partially offset by lower retail fuel margins which reduced gross profit by approximately $25 million.

Excluding the impact of a $16.7 million after-tax charge on early extinguishment of debt related to the redemption of our 8.50 percent senior unsecured notes, in May 2013 and a $3.6 million deferred tax charge related to the Gainesville Fuel acquisition and subsequent contribution to SUSP, full year 2013 adjusted net income was $34.7 million, or $1.60 per diluted share. On a comparable basis, excluding the impact of a non-cash deferred tax charge of $3.6 million related to the SUSP IPO in the third quarter of 2012, adjusted net income for the full year 2012 was $50.3 million, or $2.36 per diluted share.

Reported net income for the full year 2013 was $14.3 million, or $0.66 per diluted share, versus reported net income of $46.7 million, or $2.19 per diluted share in 2012.  A reconciliation of reported to adjusted earnings is provided later in this news release.

We define EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to Susser Holdings Corporation before net interest expense, income taxes, net income attributable to noncontrolling interest, and depreciation, amortization and accretion.  Adjusted EBITDA further adjusts EBITDA by excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expense and certain other operating expenses that are reflected in our net income that we do not believe are indicative of our ongoing core operations, such as significant non-recurring transaction expenses and the gain or loss on disposal of assets and impairment charges.  Adjusted EBITDAR adds back rent to Adjusted EBITDA.  In addition, those expenses that we have excluded from our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR are also excluded in measuring our covenants under our debt agreement and indentures.

We believe that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR are useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because:

  • securities analysts and other interested parties use such calculations as a measure of financial performance and debt service capabilities;
  • they facilitate management's ability to measure the operating performance of our business on a consistent basis by excluding the impact of items not directly resulting from our retail convenience stores and wholesale motor fuel distribution operations;
  • they are used by our management for internal planning purposes, including aspects of our consolidated operating budget, capital expenditures, as well as for segment and individual site operating targets; and
  • they are used by our Board and management for determining certain management compensation targets and thresholds.

The addition of net income attributable to noncontrolling interests means that our presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR includes 100% of the operations of SUSP, even though our economic interest in SUSP, following its September 2012 initial public offering, is limited to our ownership of a 50.2% limited partner interest in SUSP and all SUSP's incentive distribution rights (which entitle us to an increasing percentage of distributions once SUSP distributes its minimum quarterly distribution).  We believe this presentation approach provides investors a better understanding of the performance of our core businesses over time than one which excludes a portion of the EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDAR contributed by the operations of SUSP, over which we retain exclusive control.  This presentation approach is also consistent with that used for management incentive compensation targets and with the financial covenants in our outstanding borrowing agreements.  However, investors utilizing these non-GAAP measures for valuation purposes, or otherwise in making an investment decision in Susser Holdings Corporation, should take into account the 49.8% ownership of SUSP by the public when considering the contribution by SUSP to Susser Holdings Corporation's consolidated EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR under this presentation format.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR are not recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be alternatives to net income as measures of operating performance.  EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.  Some of these limitations include:

  • they do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
  • they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital;
  • they do not reflect significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our existing revolving credit facility or existing notes;
  • they do not reflect payments made or future requirements for income taxes;
  • although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR do not reflect cash requirements for such replacements, and;
  • because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR may not be comparable to similarly titles measures of other companies.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income attributable to Susser Holdings Corporation to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR:
