Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On February 26, 2020, Interface, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release reporting its financial results for the 2019 fiscal year and the fourth quarter of 2019 (the “Earnings Release”). A copy of the Earnings Release is included as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and hereby incorporated by reference. The information set forth in this Item 2.02, including the exhibit hereto, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures in the Earnings Release
The Earnings Release includes, as additional information for investors, the Company’s adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted operating income, adjusted gross profit margin, net debt, adjusted earnings before interest taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), organic sales and organic sales growth. These measures are not in accordance with financial measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be used as a substitute for, or considered superior to, GAAP financial measures.
Adjusted EPS, adjusted net income, and adjusted operating income exclude nora purchase accounting amortization, nora transaction related expenses, nora transaction related other expenses, restructuring charges, asset impairment and other charges. Adjusted gross profit excludes nora purchase accounting amortization.
Organic sales and organic sales growth exclude the impact of foreign currency fluctuations and nora sales where the comparable prior year period excludes nora activity. Net debt is total debt less cash on hand.
Because the Company engages in acquisitions only episodically, and not as an everyday matter, the Company believes presenting certain measures excluding the effects of acquisitions facilitates focus on normal ongoing operations. The Company also believes presenting sales information absent the effect of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations facilitates comparison of the Company’s operational performance between periods.
The Company generally believes reporting its adjusted results helps investors’ understanding of historical operating trends, because it facilitates comparison to prior periods during which unique events affecting more recent results may not have occurred. The Company also believes that adjusted results provide supplemental information for comparisons to other companies which may not have experienced the same events underlying the adjustments. Furthermore, the Company uses adjusted results internally as supplemental information to evaluate its own performance, for planning purposes and in connection with its compensation programs.
The Earnings Release also includes certain forward-looking non-GAAP information—specifically, projected organic sales growth and adjusted earnings per share. Due to the high variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections of some of the information excluded from these estimates, together with some of the excluded information not being ascertainable or accessible, the Company is unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts. Consequently, no disclosure of estimated comparable GAAP measures is included and no reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures is included, although the majority of the difference is expected to be due to effects from the nora systems acquisition.

Interface Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2019 Results
ATLANTA – February 26, 2020 – Interface, Inc. (Nasdaq: TILE), a worldwide commercial flooring company and global leader in sustainability, today announced results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 29, 2019.
Highlights:
| • | Q4 net sales up 1%; Q4 organic sales up 2% |
|---|---|
| • | Q4 GAAP EPS of $0.28, up 155%; Q4 adjusted EPS of $0.46, up 12% |
| --- | --- |
| • | FY net sales up 14%; FY organic sales up 2% |
| --- | --- |
| • | FY GAAP EPS of $1.34, up 60%; FY adjusted EPS of $1.59, up 7% |
| --- | --- |
| • | Reduced total debt in the quarter by $30 million |
| --- | --- |
“We ended 2019 with a solid finish, delivering strong operating and financial performance, and executing on our strategic plan. Organic sales grew 2% in the fourth quarter with carpet tile and resilient flooring contributing equally to growth, while adjusted EPS grew 12% through continued gross margin expansion and SG&A optimization,” said Dan Hendrix, Chairman and CEO of Interface. “Full year 2019 growth was in-line with our most recent guidance at 2% organic sales growth and 7% adjusted EPS growth, ending the year with $1.3 billion in sales and adjusted EPS of $1.59.”
“We enter 2020 with strong momentum, as our team remains focused on delivering robust new product innovation to capitalize on the expanded market opportunities we have in front of us,” Hendrix added. “We also continue to make significant progress on our Climate Take Back™ journey. We expect to invest approximately $50 million between 2019 and 2021 in manufacturing innovations. This includes tufting technology that will provide us with new design capability, and a new backing system that should increase our addressable market and further differentiate us in the marketplace. We believe these advancements will have great value for our customers. Our goal is to keep driving increased value to our shareholders by continuing the strategic investments and operational improvements we have made over the past several years.”
“In addition to achieving strong profitability, we remain committed to a disciplined deleveraging strategy,” commented Bruce Hausmann, CFO of Interface. “We generated $17 million of cash via working capital and reduced total debt by $30 million in the fourth quarter, lowering our net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio to 2.6x at year end.”
“With regard to the coronavirus situation,” Hausmann added, “we were able to service production demand during the temporary closure of our carpet tile facility in China and we continue to monitor the supply chain impacts very closely. The negative sales impact to our Asia business is evident in our year-to-date results, but we remain hopeful that we will be able to make up for the declines in the back half of the year.”
Fourth Quarter 2019 Financial Summary
Sales: Fourth quarter net sales were $339 million, up 1% versus $337 million in the prior year period. Organic sales were up 2% year-over-year with carpet tile and LVT contributing equally to growth.

The company recorded restructuring and other charges of $12.3 million in the fourth quarter.

In addition, we recorded a $5.0 million non-cash charge primarily related to adjusting the carrying value of certain insurance related assets.
Operating Income: Fourth quarter operating income was $28 million, compared to $4 million in the prior year period, an increase of 616%. Fourth quarter 2019 adjusted operating income was $42 million, up 11% versus adjusted operating income of $37 million in the fourth quarter last year.
Net Income and EPS: The company recorded net income in the fourth quarter of 2019 of $16 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, compared to fourth quarter 2018 net income of $6 million, or $0.11 per diluted share. Fourth quarter 2019 adjusted net income was $27 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, compared to fourth quarter 2018 adjusted net income of $24 million, or $0.41 per diluted share.
Adjusted EBITDA: In the fourth quarter of 2019, adjusted EBITDA was $54 million compared to $54 million in the prior year period.
Cash and Liquidity: The company had cash on hand of $81 million and total debt of $596 million at December 29, 2019, compared to $81 million of cash and $619 million of total debt at December 30, 2018.
Fiscal Year 2019 Financial Summary
Sales: Net sales in 2019 were $1.3 billion, up 14% versus $1.2 billion in 2018. Organic sales were up 2% year-over-year.

Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA was $200 million for full year 2019, compared to $186 million in the prior year.
Fiscal Year 2020 Outlook
Looking ahead to the full year of 2020, Interface is targeting to achieve organic sales growth of 2 - 4% and adjusted earnings per share of $1.60 - $1.70. The tax rate is anticipated to be approximately 28%. The fully diluted share count is forecast to be 59.5 million shares, and capital expenditures are anticipated to be $50 - $60 million.
Starting in 2020, and as part of the implementation of a global financial consolidation tool and the integration of nora®, we are reclassifying and standardizing cost categories globally, resulting in the reclassification of certain expenses between Cost of Sales and Selling, General & Administrative Expenses. As adjusted for these anticipated reclassifications, full year 2019 Gross Profit margin would increase approximately 50 basis points and full year 2019 Selling, General & Administrative Expenses as a percentage of Net Sales would increase by the same amount; with zero net impact to Operating Income or Operating Income margin. Starting in the first quarter of 2020, these reclassifications will be presented retrospectively to make all periods comparable.
Webcast and Conference Call Information
The company will host a conference call on February 26, at 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time, to discuss its fourth quarter 2019 results. The conference call will be simultaneously broadcast live over the Internet.
Listeners may access the conference call live over the Internet at: https://event.on24.com/wcc/r/2151065/9E7DBD2CBD534948DDD21B78514F4529, or through the company's website at: https://investors.interface.com.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Interface provides adjusted earnings per share, adjusted net income, adjusted operating income, adjusted gross profit, organic sales and organic sales growth, net debt, and adjusted EBITDA as additional information regarding its actual and projected operating results in this press release. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with – or alternatives to – GAAP measures, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Adjusted EPS, adjusted net income, and adjusted operating income exclude nora purchase accounting amortization, nora transaction related expenses, restructuring charges, asset impairment and other charges. Adjusted gross profit excludes nora purchase accounting amortization. Organic sales and organic sales growth exclude the impact of foreign currency fluctuations and nora sales where the comparable prior year period excludes nora activity. Net debt is total debt less cash on hand. Adjusted EBITDA is GAAP net income excluding interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, stock compensation amortization, restructuring charges, asset impairment and other charges, and nora transaction related expenses such as purchase accounting amortization, transaction related expenses, and transaction related other expenses. This news release should be read in conjunction with the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K furnished today to the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission, which explains why Interface believes presentation of these non-GAAP measures provides useful information to investors, as well as any additional material purposes for which Interface uses these non-GAAP measures.

The impacts of changes in foreign currency presented in the tables are calculated based on applying the prior year period's average foreign currency exchange rates to the current year period.
The Company believes that the above non-GAAP performance measures, which management uses in managing and evaluating the Company’s business, may provide users of the Company’s financial information with additional meaningful basis for comparing the Company’s current results and results in a prior period, as these measures reflect factors that are unique to one period relative to the comparable period. However, these non‑GAAP performance measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company’s reported results under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Tax effects identified above (when applicable) are calculated using the statutory tax rate for the jurisdictions in which the charge or income occurred.
