MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

Dave Bruce, President and CEO of FGI, stated, "FGI reported total revenue of $35.6 million in the quarter, representing a year-over-year increase of 15.0%. Gross profit was $8.7 million, a decrease of 3.2% compared to the prior year. The gross margin was 24.6%, a decline of 460 basis points compared to the fourth quarter of 2023 due, in part, to customer marketing support and costs related to new business and associated promotional expenses in Bath Furniture. The industry outlook remains relatively flat overall but FGI's strategic investments in our brands, products and channels strategy is bearing fruit and driving revenue growth well above the overall market. FGI's fourth quarter revenue increased significantly compared to the fourth quarter 2023 due to growth across all our businesses and geographies. Revenue grew 14.7%, 9.9% and 23.3% in the quarter for the US, Canada and Europe markets, respectively. Sanitaryware and Bath Furniture grew revenue 5.8% and 40.2% year-over-year, respectively, in the fourth quarter. Shower Systems revenue increased 17.0% year-over-year as demand trends remained steady and sales of both existing and new products drove growth across a broader customer base. Our Other segment, including Covered Bridge, continues to show strong growth increasing 68.3% over the prior year period due to continued order momentum, expanded geographies and higher dealer count. Isla Porter, our digital custom kitchen joint venture, continues to establish relationships with the premium design community with on-trend products via an AI-backed digital sales platform." Bruce continued, "We are excited about our new product introductions and continue to invest in our brands and our future growth initiatives in our core businesses.

"The increasing tariff environment in 2025 remains fluid. FGI is working with our suppliers and customers to support one another as we navigate these new dynamics together. We experienced a similar tariff process several years ago, so this is not new to us. We are confident that we can work through what comes given the close relationships we have cultivated over the years with our vendors and customers."

Perry Lin, Chief Financial Officer of FGI, commented, "Even as total revenue increased 12.4% year-over-year, operating expenses increased 28.4% year-over-year to $10.0 million. The increase in operating expenses was due primarily to investing in initiatives related to our BPC growth strategy. FGI ended the fourth quarter with total available liquidity of $15.6 million. We believe the best use of our capital is for internal investment and this will remain our priority in the near term."

FOURTH QUARTER 2024 RESULTS

Revenue totaled $35.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2024, an increase of 15.0% compared to the prior-year period due to growth across all our businesses and geographies.  

  • Sanitaryware revenue was $21.8 million during the fourth quarter of 2024, an increase from $20.6 million in the prior-year period.

  • Bath Furniture revenue was $3.5 million during the fourth quarter of 2024, an increase from revenue of $2.5 million in the prior-year period. Our shift to market-aligned program pricing and design outpaced our sales expectations driven by new business wins.

  • Shower Systems revenue was $6.7 million during the fourth quarter of 2024, an increase from $5.7 million last year. Demand trends remain positive, further supported by our new customer programs and continued order growth from a broader customer base.

  • Other revenue, primarily from Kitchen Cabinets, was $3.6 million during the fourth quarter, an increase from $2.1 million in the prior year, driven by continued order momentum, expanded geographies and higher dealer count.

Gross profit was $8.7 million during the fourth quarter of 2024, a decrease of 3.2% compared to the prior-year period. Customer marketing support impacted gross profit and Bath Furniture incurred costs related to new business and associated promotional expenses. Gross profit margin decreased to 24.6% during the fourth quarter of 2024, down 460 basis points from the prior-year period. 

Operating loss was $1.3 million during the fourth quarter of 2024, down from operating income of $1.2 million in the prior-year period. Operating loss during the fourth quarter of 2024 included non-recurring expenses of $0.1 million for business expansion expense and accruals for non-recurring IPO-related share-based compensation.  Excluding these items, adjusted operating loss was $1.1 million during the fourth quarter. The decline in operating income and adjusted operating income from the prior year was a result of an increase in personnel costs, marketing and promotion expenses, warehouse expenses, and operating expenses tied to growth initiatives, as the Company continues to invest in its BPC growth strategy. As a result, operating margin and adjusted operating margin were (3.5%) and (3.2%) during the fourth quarter, respectively, down from 4.0% and 4.4% in the same period last year.

The Company reported GAAP net loss attributable to shareholders of $0.4 million, or net loss of $0.04 per diluted share during the fourth quarter of 2024, versus net income of $0.5 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, in the same period last year.  Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2024 included after-tax expenses of $0.1 million related to business expansion expense and accruals for non-recurring IPO- related stock-based compensation. Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2023 included after-tax expense of $0.1 million related to business expansion expense and non-recurring IPO- related compensation. Excluding these items, adjusted net loss attributable to shareholders for the fourth quarter of 2024 was $0.7 million, or net loss attributable to shareholders of $0.07 per diluted share, versus adjusted net income attributable to shareholders of $0.9 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, for the same period last year.

Going forward, FGI will hold quarterly earnings calls only for the second and fourth quarters. The Company will continue to release results of operations via press releases and SEC filings on a quarterly basis as before.

ABOUT FGI INDUSTRIES

FGI Industries Ltd. (Nasdaq: FGI) is a leading global supplier of kitchen and bath products. For over 30 years, we have built an industry-wide reputation for product innovation, quality, and excellent customer service. We are currently focused on the following product categories: sanitaryware (primarily toilets, sinks, pedestals, and toilet seats), bath furniture (vanities, mirrors and cabinets), shower systems, customer kitchen cabinetry and other accessory items. These products are sold primarily for repair and remodel activity and, to a lesser extent, new home or commercial construction. We sell our products through numerous partners, including mass retail centers, wholesale and commercial distributors, online retailers and specialty stores.

Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to the measures presented in our consolidated financial statements, we use the following non-GAAP measures to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business and assist us in making strategic decisions. Our non-GAAP measures are: Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Margins and Adjusted Net Income. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). They are supplemental financial measures of our performance only, and should not be considered substitutes for net income, income from operations or any other measure derived in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other entities. We define Adjusted Operating Income as GAAP income from operations excluding the impact of certain non-recurring income and expenses, including non-recurring compensation expenses related to our IPO, unusual litigation and business expansion expense. We define Adjusted Net Income as GAAP income before income taxes excluding the impact of certain non-recurring income and expenses, such as non-recurring compensation expenses related to our IPO, unusual litigation and business expansion expense, as well as income taxes at historical average effective rate and net income attributable to non-controlling shareholders. We define Adjusted Operating Margins as Adjusted Operating Income divided by revenue.

We use these non-GAAP measures, along with GAAP measures, to evaluate our business, measure our financial performance and profitability and our ability to manage expenses, after adjusting for certain one-time expenses, identify trends affecting our business and assist us in making strategic decisions. We believe these non-GAAP measures, when reviewed in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, and not in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results of operations under GAAP, are useful to investors as they are widely used measures of performance and the adjustments we make to these non-GAAP measures provide investors further insight into our profitability and additional perspectives in comparing our performance over time on a consistent basis. With respect to the Company's expectations of its future performance, the Company's reconciliations of guidance for full year 2025 Adjusted Operating Income and 2025 Adjusted Net Income are not available, as the Company is unable to quantify certain amounts to the degree of precision that would be required in the relevant GAAP measures without unreasonable effort.
