      SPRINGFIELD, Mass., June 16, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Smith & Wesson Holding Corporation (NASDAQ Global Select: SWHC), a leader in firearm manufacturing and design, today announced financial results for the fiscal fourth quarter and full year ended April 30, 2016.

      Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2016 Financial Highlights

      • Quarterly net sales were $221.1 million, an increase of 22.2% over the fourth quarter last year.  Firearms division net sales of $203.7 million increased by 22.4% over the comparable quarter last year.  Accessories division net sales of $17.5 million increased by 19.8% over the comparable quarter last year. 
      • Gross margin for the quarter was 41.6% compared with 37.1% for the comparable quarter last year. 
      • Quarterly GAAP net income was $35.6 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, compared with $21.9 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, for the comparable quarter last year. Fourth quarter 2016 and 2015 GAAP net income per diluted share included an expense of $1.7 million and $1.5 million, respectively, for amortization, net of tax, related to the Battenfeld Technologies, Inc. (BTI) acquisition. 
      • Quarterly non-GAAP net income was $37.4 million, or $0.66 per diluted share, compared with $24.9 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, for the comparable quarter last year.
      • Quarterly non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDAS was $68.7 million, or 31.1% of net sales.

      Full Year Fiscal 2016 Financial Highlights

      • Full year net sales totaled $722.9 million, an increase of 31.0% from last year. Firearms division net sales were $657.6 million, an increase of 23.8% from last year.  Accessories division net sales were $65.3 million, an increase from $20.6 million from last year, a year in which the company acquired BTI and therefore reported only five months of accessories division sales in 2015.
      • Full year gross margin was 40.6% compared with 35.3% last year. 
      • Full year GAAP income from continuing operations was $94.0 million, or $1.68 per diluted share, compared with $49.8 million, or $0.90 per diluted share, last year.
      • Full year non-GAAP income from continuing operations was $1.83 per diluted share, compared with $1.02 per diluted share last year.
      • Full year non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDAS from continuing operations was $202.4 million, or 28.0% of net sales.

      James Debney, Smith & Wesson Holding Corporation President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our solid fourth quarter and full year performance further validates our vision, which is to become the leading provider of quality products for the shooting, hunting, and rugged outdoor enthusiast.  We continued to successfully execute on our long-term strategy, while delivering financial and operational results that set a number of new company records.  In our firearms division, we made several important new product introductions and continued to leverage our flexible manufacturing model, allowing us to benefit from strong consumer demand.  In our first full year of accessories revenue, we expanded our product portfolio organically as well as through a targeted acquisition, delivering double-digit top line revenue growth. Looking ahead to fiscal 2017, we expect that a strong balance sheet, combined with our track record of successful acquisitions, positions us well for an expanding role in the market for products for shooting, hunting, and rugged outdoor enthusiasts."

      Jeff Buchanan, Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, and Chief Administrative Officer, commented, "Gross margin performance remained strong throughout fiscal 2016, driven by robust volumes in our firearms division and favorably impacted by the strong gross margins in our accessories division.  In fiscal 2016, we generated $168.6 million in operating cash flow, establishing a new company record.  We ended the year with cash and cash equivalents totaling $191.3 million and total bank debt and Senior Notes of $175.3 million, leaving us with zero net debt. In fiscal 2017, we expect to use the strength of our balance sheet, including our unused $175 million revolving line of credit, to fuel growth opportunities, both organic and inorganic."

      Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures

      In this press release, certain non-GAAP financial measures, including "non-GAAP net income," "Adjusted EBITDAS," and "free cash flow" are presented. From time-to-time, the company considers and uses these supplemental measures of operating performance in order to provide the reader with an improved understanding of underlying performance trends.  The company believes it is useful for itself and the reader to review, as applicable, both (1) GAAP measures that include (i) amortization of acquired intangible assets, (ii) TCA accessories transition costs, (iii) discontinued operations, (iv) DOJ and SEC costs including insurance recovery costs, (v) acquisition-related costs, (vi) bond premium, (vii) debt extinguishment costs, (viii) the tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments, (ix) interest expense, (x) income taxes, (xi) depreciation and amortization, (xii) stock-based compensation expense, (xiii) payments for acquisitions, and (xiv) receipts from note receivable; and (2) the non-GAAP measures that exclude such information.  The company presents these non-GAAP measures because it considers them an important supplemental measure of its performance. The company's definition of these adjusted financial measures may differ from similarly named measures used by others. The company believes these measures facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period by eliminating potential differences caused by the existence and timing of certain expense items that would not otherwise be apparent on a GAAP basis.  These non-GAAP measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the company's GAAP measures.  The principal limitations of these measures are that they do not reflect the company's actual expenses and may thus have the effect of inflating its financial measures on a GAAP basis.

      Certain statements contained in this press release may be deemed to be forward-looking statements under federal securities laws, and we intend that such forward-looking statements be subject to the safe-harbor created thereby.  Such forward-looking statements include our vision, which is to become the leading provider of quality products for the shooting, hunting, and rugged outdoor enthusiast; our belief that we continued to successfully execute on our long-term strategy; our expectation for fiscal 2017 that a strong balance sheet, combined with our track record of successful acquisitons, positions us well for an expanding role in the market for products for shooting, hunting, and rugged outdoor enthusiasts; our expectation for fiscal 2017 to use the strength of our balance sheet, including our unused revolving line of credit, to fuel growth opportunities, both organic and inorganic; and our expectations for net sales, GAAP  income per diluted share, amortization of acquired intangible assets, tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments, and non-GAAP income per diluted share for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 and for fiscal 2017.  We caution that these statements are qualified by important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected by such forward-looking statements.  Such factors include the demand for our products; the costs and ultimate conclusion of certain legal matters; the state of the U.S. economy in general and the firearm industry in particular; general economic conditions and consumer spending patterns; the potential for increased regulation of firearms and firearm-related products; speculation surrounding fears of terrorism and crime; our growth opportunities; our anticipated growth; our ability to increase demand for our products in various markets, including consumer, law enforcement, and military channels, domestically and internationally; the position of our hunting products in the consumer discretionary marketplace and distribution channel; our penetration rates in new and existing markets; our strategies; our ability to introduce new products; the success of new products; our ability to expand our markets; our ability to integrate acquired businesses in a successful manner; the general growth of our firearm accessories business; the potential for cancellation of orders from our backlog; and other risks detailed from time to time in our reports filed with the SEC, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2016.
