Net Sales

Net sales were up 2 percent in the third quarter of 2010, compared to 2009, primarily due to incremental Folgers sales. An additional five days of Folgers net sales, totaling approximately $31.8 million, were realized in this year's third quarter as a result of the closing date of the merger during last year's third quarter. In total, Folgers contributed $510.3 million to net sales in the third quarter of 2010, compared to $468.5 million in the third quarter last year. Excluding the additional Folgers business and the impact of foreign exchange, net sales were down 2 percent in the third quarter of 2010, compared to 2009, primarily due to pricing.
Excluding the additional five days of Folgers sales, total volume increased 4 percent in the third quarter of 2010, compared to 2009, with gains across most of the Company's leading brands. The favorable impact of volume growth on net sales was more than offset by a 6 percent price and mix decline, attributable primarily to price reductions in the U.S. retail oils and baking segment, and an increase in promotional spending across several categories.
Margins
Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended January 31, January 31, ------------------ ----------------- 2010 2009 2010 2009 ---- ---- ---- ---- (% of net sales) Gross profit 38.0% 33.9% 38.4% 31.7% Selling, distribution, and administrative expenses: Marketing and selling 8.9% 10.0% 9.7% 10.0% Distribution 3.3% 3.6% 3.3% 3.5% General and administrative 5.6% 4.3% 5.3% 4.8% --- --- --- --- 17.8% 17.9% 18.3% 18.3% ==== ==== ==== ==== Amortization 1.5% 1.7% 1.6% 0.8% Impairment charges 0.8% 0.0% 0.3% 0.1% Restructuring and merger and integration costs 0.4% 2.8% 0.8% 1.6% Other operating expense (income) - net 0.1% 0.0% 0.2% (0.0%) --- --- --- ---- Operating Income 17.4% 11.5% 17.2% 10.9% ==== ==== ==== ====
Gross profit increased $57.3 million to 38.0 percent of net sales in the third quarter of 2010, from 33.9 percent in the third quarter of 2009. Much of the improvement is attributable to Folgers including the impact of lower green coffee raw material costs and the extra five days of business. In addition, last year's gross margin was negatively impacted by inventory adjustments related to the merger. Lower other raw material and freight costs across the businesses also favorably impacted this quarter's gross margin compared to last year.
Driven by gross profit, operating income increased 55 percent, compared to the third quarter of 2009, and improved from 11.5 percent to 17.4 percent of net sales. Excluding the impact of merger and integration costs in both years, and further excluding restructuring costs in 2009, operating income increased from 14.3 percent of net sales in 2009 to 17.8 percent in 2010.
Selling, distribution, and administrative expenses increased 1 percent for the third quarter of 2010, compared to 2009, but decreased slightly as a percentage of net sales. Marketing expense decreased approximately 14 percent in the third quarter of 2010, compared to the prior year, primarily due to the higher concentration of marketing expense last year for Folgers in the third quarter compared to the fourth quarter of last year. The Company expects its total marketing expense for the second half of fiscal 2010 to be higher than the second half of the prior year.
Distribution expenses decreased 8 percent for the third quarter of 2010, compared to 2009, reflecting the impact of synergies related to the addition of Folgers. General and administrative expenses increased 34 percent in the third quarter of 2010 compared to 2009. The current quarter includes increased pension and other employee benefit costs, compared to the prior year's quarter, and partial recognition of expenses related to the pending closure of the Company's West Fargo, North Dakota, manufacturing facility in April 2010. In addition, last year's third quarter expense did not include administrative expenses to fully support the Folgers business.
Amortization expense, a noncash item, was $18.6 million in the third quarter of 2010, primarily reflecting the impact of intangible assets associated with the Folgers transaction. Noncash impairment charges of $9.8 million were recorded in the third quarter of 2010 resulting from the write-down to estimated fair value of certain of the Company's intangible assets, primarily the Europe's Best® tradename in Canada.
Interest and Income Taxes
Interest expense decreased $7.7 million during the third quarter of 2010, compared to 2009, resulting from a decrease in borrowings outstanding during the quarter as scheduled debt repayments of $75 million and $550 million were made in June and November 2009, respectively.
Income tax expense increased $25.3 million during the third quarter of 2010, compared to 2009. The effective tax rate decreased to 31.3 percent in the third quarter of 2010, reflecting the impact of reduced effective rates in Canada, compared to 31.8 percent in 2009.
Segment Performance

Segment performance for the three-month and nine-month periods ended January 31, 2009, has been reclassified to include Canadian Folgers results in the special markets segment, rather than in the U.S. retail coffee market segment, consistent with 2010 presentations. Reclassification of segment performance for the three-month period ended April 30, 2009, has been provided in the "Unaudited Reportable Segments Supplemental Information" table.
U.S. Retail Coffee Market
The U.S. retail coffee market segment net sales increased 9 percent in the third quarter of 2010, including the additional five days of sales totaling approximately $29.2 million, compared to the third quarter of 2009. Volume increased approximately 4 percent as compared to the same three-month period last year, including the five days prior to the merger. The Folgers® brand contributed the majority of the volume increase compared to last year, while the continued growth of Dunkin' Donuts® coffee in the gourmet category also contributed double-digit growth.
The U.S. retail coffee market segment profit increased 62 percent to $148.6 million in the third quarter of 2010, compared to 2009, and improved to 31.5 percent of net sales from 21.3 percent in 2009. Last year's coffee segment margins included unfavorable merger-related inventory valuation adjustments and higher marketing and promotional expense recognition. The current quarter margin was favorably impacted by lower green coffee raw material costs.
U.S. Retail Consumer Market
U.S. retail consumer market segment net sales for the quarter increased 1 percent compared to the prior year. Total volume in the U.S. retail consumer market increased 4 percent, compared to the third quarter last year, with gains in Hungry Jack® pancake mixes and syrups, Jif® peanut butter, and Smucker's® fruit spreads. Volume gains were mostly offset by increases in promotional spending, sales mix, and price declines on selected items.
The U.S. retail consumer market segment profit increased 6 percent for the third quarter of 2010, compared to the same period in 2009, mainly due to lower raw material and freight costs offset by incremental marketing. Segment profit margin for the quarter improved from 23.2 percent in the third quarter of 2009 to 24.3 percent in 2010.
U.S. Retail Oils and Baking Market
Total volume in the U.S. retail oils and baking market segment was up 3 percent, with gains in the Pillsbury® and Crisco® brands. Net sales in the U.S. retail oils and baking market were down 12 percent for the third quarter of 2010, compared to 2009, reflecting the impact of price declines taken last year and increased promotional spending across the segment.
The U.S. retail oils and baking market segment profit decreased 17 percent for the third quarter of 2010, compared to the same period in 2009, resulting in a segment profit margin of 16.1 percent compared to 17.0 percent in 2009. Last year's third quarter benefited from the favorable impact of a partial reversal of unrealized mark-to-market adjustments on commodity instruments, previously recorded during the second quarter. A higher portion of sales sold on promotion in the third quarter of 2010, compared to 2009, and mix reduced segment margin in 2010.
Special Markets
Net sales in the special markets segment increased 8 percent, in the third quarter of 2010, compared to 2009, due to a favorable exchange rate impact of $14.2 million, and an additional five days of Folgers sales totaling approximately $2.6 million. Volume increased 6 percent in the third quarter of 2010, compared to 2009. Gains in Canada's baking and spreads categories, coffee in the foodservice and export businesses, and the natural foods business were offset somewhat by declines in foodservice portion control. The impact of volume growth was more than offset by mix and increases in promotional spending. Net sales, excluding acquisitions and foreign exchange, decreased 1 percent in the third quarter of 2010 compared to 2009.
Special markets segment profit increased 53 percent for the third quarter of 2010, compared to 2009, primarily due to lower raw material costs and the impact of increased coffee sales. Profit margin for the quarter improved from 12.6 percent in the third quarter of 2009 to 17.8 percent in 2010.
Other Financial Results and Measures
During the quarter, the Company repaid $350 million of Folgers' bank debt and $200 million of Senior Notes utilizing a combination of cash on hand and borrowings against an existing $180 million credit facility. The Company subsequently paid off the borrowings against the credit facility during the third quarter.
Cash provided by operations in the third quarter of 2010 was a record $322.5 million resulting in cash provided by operations of $508.7 million in the first nine months of 2010, compared to $289.0 million in 2009.
For the third quarter of 2010, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA") were $257.4 million, or 21.3 percent of net sales, compared to $178.3 million, or 15.1 percent of net sales, in the third quarter of 2009.
Outlook
The Company raised its outlook for the year. For fiscal 2010, net sales are expected to range between $4.5 billion and $4.6 billion. Income per diluted share, excluding merger and integration costs of $0.17 to $0.19 per diluted share, is now expected to range between $4.02 and $4.07, an increase from the previous range of $3.95 to $4.05. Income per diluted share is expected to reflect approximately $0.40 per share of noncash amortization expense resulting from the significant amount of intangible assets recorded on the Company's balance sheet.
The Company remains committed to its long-term strategic objectives of 6 percent annual sales growth and greater than 8 percent earnings per share growth, excluding charges.
