Speaker 1

I'm now pleased to turn the call over to Jeff Lorenger. Jeff?

Speaker 2

Thanks, Matt. Good morning and thank you for joining us. During the Q1, our teams continue to build upon the strong progress we have made over the past 2 years. We delivered earnings that were nearly triple the prior year period with operating margin and EPS reaching 1st quarter levels not seen since 2007. First quarter non GAAP EPS of $0.37 was up 185% year over year.

Speaker 2

This was despite an 8% organic revenue decline, which was primarily driven by continued housing market softness. Our strong results continue to be fueled by our legacy Workplace Furnishings profit transformation plan and the inclusion of Kimball International, which combined to deliver the highest first quarter Workplace Furnishings operating profit margin since 2016. In residential building products, our recent cost actions help support profitability despite a continued soft housing market. Longer term, we remain bullish about the prospects of the housing market broadly and our market leading position specifically. Overall, we started the year on a very strong note.

Speaker 2

On the call today, I will highlight 3 key topics. First, our profit transformation actions continue to drive improvement in workplace furnishings. When excluding the benefits of Kimball International, legacy workplace furnishings non GAAP operating margin expanded 560 basis points year over year. Looking forward, we expect profit growth and margin expansion to continue. 2nd, Kimball International delivered strong accretion.

Speaker 2

The addition of KII is already providing significant value creation to our shareholders and there is more to come. We continue to expect annual cost synergies resulting from the combination with KII to total $35,000,000 when mature. 3rd, residential building products posted solid profit despite ongoing housing market challenges. Recent cost reduction actions continue to support profitability and we expect revenue growth and margin expansion to return through the year. Following those highlights, Marshall will review our outlook.

Speaker 2

I will conclude with some general closing comments before we open the call to your questions. Moving to the first topic, our profit transformation actions continue to drive improvement in workplace furnishings. As I mentioned, 1st quarter non GAAP operating profit margin for legacy workplace furnishings improved 5 60 basis points year over year. That was the 8th straight quarter of year over year operating margin improvement in the segment. And there is more to come as we expect additional benefits from our profit transformation plan during 2024 and beyond.

Speaker 2

As a reminder, our legacy Workplace Furnishings profit transformation plan consists of 4 primary actions. 1st, we're driving increased productivity. 2nd, benefits from price positive price costs are helping to drive improved profitability. 3rd, we have streamlined our cost structure. And finally, we continue to simplify our business.

Speaker 2

Some of these benefits of this plan are recognized in our results and have helped drive the recent strength in our margins. We also continue to see opportunity. Our operational investments primarily in our new facility in Mexico will help drive substantial productivity benefits as they mature over the next couple of years. This will add to our continued lean efforts and help drive additional profit growth. Next, we expect continued net price cost benefit through the remainder of 2024 from pricing actions announced over the past 12 months.

Speaker 2

Finally, the rollover benefits from our corporate wide cost savings program will provide an incremental profit support in 2024. All of this gives us line of sight to additional margin improvement. And as I said earlier, we expect year over year profit growth and margin expansion in workplace furnishings to continue in 2024 and beyond. Let's shift to workplace furnishings demand. Our view of the market is mostly unchanged from our last call.

Speaker 2

1st quarter organic revenue was down 2.5% year over year consistent with our expectations. SMB again outperformed contract. In the near term, demand remains choppy but is stable within a range. SMB orders grew 1% year over year in the Q1 on top of an 18% increase in the Q1 of 2023, which was positively impacted by price increase timing. This segment of our business continues to benefit from healthy dynamics, including population shifts to markets outside the top 10 and relatively higher office usage in those markets.

Speaker 2

We expect these factors along with increasing pre order metrics to continue to support SMB demand. Switching to contract demand, trends further improved in the quarter. Orders from contract customers were also up 1% in the Q1 on a year over year basis. The year ago comp was also challenging in contract with Q1 2023 order growth of 14%, which was also positively impacted by timing of price increases. The 2 year order trend is encouraging and is consistent with many of the other demand indicators.

Speaker 2

Our pre order activity in quoting remain elevated, return to office metrics continue to tick up and reach post pandemic highs in recent weeks. Lease churn is expected to accelerate as tenants take advantage of attractive lease economics and non viable office space is repurposed. And the need for companies to adapt their spaces for hybrid work will further support demand. In summary, we continue to see encouraging trends related to future demand, particularly given our unique market position and overall market coverage. However, as we have communicated for several quarters, our profit transformation plan does not require volume growth.

Speaker 2

Volume growth will only enhance our profitability. Moving to my second topic, Kimball International delivered strong accretion. KII generated an operating profit margin of 9.3 percent and added an estimated $0.10 to non GAAP EPS in the Q1. We continue to expect annual cost synergies to reach $25,000,000 in 2024 and total synergies are expected to reach $35,000,000 when fully mature. From a revenue perspective, KII solidly outperformed the expectations we shared with you last quarter.

Speaker 2

The upside came from the Hospitality segment. Hospitality has been performing well. However, entering the quarter, we had expected revenue recognition to be negatively impacted by shipping delays related to disruption in the Red Sea. Those delays did not materialize, which helped drive hospitality revenue above our expectations. We continue to be encouraged by the complementary nature and attractive post pandemic positioning of KII's offering.

Speaker 2

The addition of KII is providing significant value creation. As we have highlighted, Kimball International is complementary from a product, market and cultural perspective. KII strengthens our exposure to several important trends and markets, namely ancillary products, secondary geographies, healthcare and hospitality. Each provides new opportunities for profit growth. And our confidence in the combination strategic and financial benefits continues to prove out and accelerate.

Speaker 2

My third topic, residential building products posted solid profit despite ongoing housing challenges. Segment non GAAP operating margin for the Q1 was 14.4%. This represents the 7th consecutive year with 1st quarter segment non GAAP operating margin at or above 14%. We were able to extend this level of performance in 2024 despite a 17% year over year revenue decline as housing market weakness continue to pressure demand trends in the quarter. Let me provide some color on the Q1 revenue decline in residential building products.

Speaker 2

First, the year over year rate has some noise in it. We are comparing against the prior year period that benefited from unwinding demand that had built up during the back half of twenty twenty two. Our first quarter revenue and order growth rates are somewhat distorted due to that issue. 2nd, consistent with broader housing trends, R and R performed worse on a year over year basis than new construction. And 3rd, the year over year revenue decrease was modestly worse than expected, primarily due to slower new construction, which was negatively impacted by weather early in the quarter and more recently by incrementally higher interest rates and inconsistent builder sentiment.

Speaker 2

Looking forward, year over year single family permits and starts are showing healthy growth, which supports new construction improvement going forward in 2024. Segment orders showed improvement consistent with the broader market indicators in the Q1. Orders in new construction outperformed remodel retrofit with new build orders down only low single digits year over year. Despite some near term headwinds, we are bullish on the intermediate to long term dynamics for the business. In addition to the solid long term market fundamentals, we have unique growth opportunities and continue to invest in the areas of category awareness, new product innovation, online capabilities and the expansion of our wholly owned installing distributor footprint.

Speaker 2

In summary, order trends in our residential building product segment improved during the quarter and the intermediate to long term demand dynamics continue to remain encouraging for this business. Looking through the remainder of 2024, we expect growth and margin expansion to return through the year. I will now turn the call over to Marshall to discuss our outlook for 2024. Marshall?

Speaker 3

Thanks, Jeff. Let's start with our demand outlook. We expect 2024 organic revenue in workplace furnishings to grow at a low single digit rate year over year. That outlook is unchanged from what we communicated on our last call. We expect demand conditions to remain generally in line with those experienced over the last 9 months, and we continue to expect demand will be choppy, but stable in a range.

Speaker 3

In residential building products, revenue trends are expected to improve as the year progresses with year over year growth returning in the second half. For the full year, residential building products revenue is expected to be flat to slightly down versus 2023 levels. All right, let's shift to our outlook for 2024 earnings. We expect full year EPS to strongly increase from 2023 levels, primarily due to continued margin expansion in workplace furnishings and the full year benefit of accretion from KII. Looking at the Q2 of 2024, we expect earnings per share to solidly increase year over year.

Speaker 3

Again, we expect the benefit of Kimball International and continued profit transformation in legacy workplace furnishings to drive the increase. I'd like to point out that we are now facing increasingly difficult year ago comps as the Q2 of 2023 showed noticeable benefits from our profit transformation initiatives. We expect 2nd quarter workplace furnishings organic revenue to be down slightly versus the same quarter of 2023. Moving to Kimball International. For the Q2 of 2024, we expect KII to be accretive to non GAAP EPS, generally in line with first quarter results.

Speaker 3

KII is expected to add $75,000,000 to $80,000,000 of incremental revenue to the 2nd quarter. As a reminder, this is reflective of 2 months of incremental revenue as we anniversary the closing of the transaction in June. Finally, in residential building products, year over year declines are expected to moderate with 2nd quarter revenue down in the low single digits versus the year ago period. This reflects new construction growth and moderating declines in R and R. Shifting to the balance sheet, we maintained our strong financial position.

Speaker 3

Our gross leverage ratio of 1.9 times remained below 2 times for the 2nd straight quarter as higher profit offset a modest seasonal increase in debt. Looking forward, we expect to modestly reduce leverage and improve our already strong balance sheet over the rest of the year. In addition, during the quarter, we accelerated our share repurchase activity. While the total outlay during the quarter was modest, our ability to hold leverage steady while deploying cash speaks to our strong cash flow characteristics. Our low leverage and consistent cash flow generation provide substantial financial flexibility and ample capacity for capital deployment.

Speaker 3

Our current priorities for cash deployment remain reinvesting in the business, funding dividends and pursuing share buybacks and M and A opportunities. All right. I'll now turn the call back over to Jeff.

Speaker 2

Thanks, Marshall. We had an excellent start to 2024 as our strategies continue to deliver outstanding earnings growth. We are committed to expanding margins in workplace furnishings and driving long term revenue growth in residential building products. Our results to begin 2024 reflect the dedication of our member owners, the strength of our business model and our ability to manage through all parts of the economic cycle. And we anticipate another strong year in 2024.

Speaker 2

We will now open the call to your questions.

Operator

Our first question will come from the line of Reuben Garner with The Benchmark Company. Please go ahead.

Speaker 4

Thank you. Good morning, everybody. Good morning. So maybe just start with a big picture question. Earnings or margin performance for the last 3 or 4 quarters has been pretty remarkable.

Speaker 4

Can you you mentioned difficult comps, Marshall, kind of starting in the Q2. Can you talk about what's left to go in terms of what you control in terms of earnings expansion as the year progresses and into next year?

Speaker 3

Yes, Ruben, I think we still have the same primary drivers, productivity, cost control in the SG and A line and of course price cost. It's just that all those are up against stronger comps. So in particular, price cost is going to taper off here a little bit. That was a decent benefit in the Q1. We still expect it will be a benefit for the remainder of the year, just less so.

Speaker 2

Yes, Ruben, I'd just add that, Marshall hit it. I mean, really, we got our lean efforts both in both segments, both businesses, labor flow materials, We're seeing early benefits from our investments, mainly Mexico and the workplace furnishing side and then we're getting some procurement savings as well. So we probably pumped in about $30,000,000 to $35,000,000 of benefit in 'twenty four, but I think as you look out past 2024, I think I'd anticipate another 30 or so on top of the 24 number.

Speaker 3

And that 30 rubin would be from the Mexico investment as well as synergies from KII. We'd have our usual lean efforts on top of that. So that's after this year, just to clarify.

Speaker 4

Okay, good. That's helpful. And then, I guess on the building products side, anything in terms of the size of homes or affordability that concerns you or signs that you've seen where we might be running into headwinds on the number of fireplaces per home? Or do you guys have an offering at that price point to kind of offset it if affordability for the builders and the homebuyers becomes a bigger issue?

Speaker 3

Yes, Reuben, it's a good question.

Speaker 2

I mean affordability has been an issue for a while now. And so we've watched that and our product pipe accounts for that. The other thing I would talk about is we got some newer units in the electric category that are that really address some of that as well, that we've got a lot of innovation going there. So, no, I don't see the headwinds being any more than they've been candidly for the last couple of years.

Speaker 4

Okay. And last one for me, rates moving up again here of late. Your conversations, I guess, specifically in the SMB side, it doesn't sound like the outlook has changed a lot. Any risks to that or you think the other drivers are more than offsetting it on a go forward basis?

Speaker 2

Yes, I think look, it's a '24 is an interesting time given kind of the economic cycle and election year. But for the most part, we see that business and the drivers holding pretty solid. And I would say that the orders in most of those what we look at are most of those areas are running at where we've been or slightly up.

Speaker 3

Yes, Ruben, that's a business that's done pretty well for last several quarters and we're still seeing growth on top of the strong comps. So we're pretty feel pretty good about it. And I think the encouraging thing is we're starting to see contract converge with that growth. So contract orders were up in the Q1 and we're expecting some reasonable growth in the second half from both contract and SMB.

Speaker 4

Great. Thanks for the color guys and congrats on the strong quarter. Good luck going forward.

Speaker 2

Thank you.

Operator

Your next question will come from the line of Greg Burns with Sidoti and Company. Please go ahead.

Speaker 5

Good morning. The dynamic you mentioned with Kimball impacting the revenue recognition, I guess, there this quarter, Was that pulled forward? I'm just trying to gauge like are you expecting like is your guide for the second quarter lower than it would have been otherwise? Like I'm just trying to kind of gauge if this is like the normal seasonality that you're expecting for the business going forward or if this is just timing issue with some of these orders you were expecting to shift around?

Speaker 3

Yes, it's a timing issue and it did pull from the 2nd quarter. So if you look at our guide for the incremental revenue from KII, it's pretty much the same as it was last quarter, but we got more of it in the Q1. And that's a business that is project oriented, so there's not necessarily seasonality to it. It just depends on when the timing of those projects occur.

Speaker 4

Okay.

Speaker 5

And then what's the split of your revenue now on the building product side between new construction and remodel retrofit? Has that changed much?

Speaker 3

It hasn't changed much. It's very close to fifty-fifty. Certainly with the Romano Ruxford being down more than new construction, maybe a tad more new construction right now, but it's close enough to fifty-fifty to not change that ratio.

Speaker 5

Okay. And then I guess you kind of touched on this, but it seems like your the contract side of the businesses seems to be showing some more activity. I guess maybe could you just talk about what you're seeing in terms of funnel activity there, conversations with your customers, any more color to give there? Do you feel better about that side of the business and see maybe improving demand outlook there?

Speaker 2

Yes, Greg, I think that's how I would characterize it. Current trends, we think our funnel, our quoting, our pre order activity is solid. It's actually we've got double digit growth rates in all those pre order metrics. What I would say is that we've got some segments that are showing some pretty decent activity, both project pipe, FedGov, corporate accounts in that space as well. Now having said all that, what I would say is, I think it's going to be a slow steady grind up.

Speaker 2

It's not to the moon. I think it's but the good news is those preorder those are starting to convert and we're having those preorder metrics are up nicely. And I think the cycle is a little elongated. So it's just going to kind of be a slow steady grind, but it does predict the outlook will be growth in the contract space as we go forward.

Speaker 4

Okay. Thank you.

Operator

Your next question will come from the line of Budd Bugatch with Water Tower Research. Please go ahead.

Speaker 6

Good morning, Jeff. Good morning, Marshall and Matt and Jeff.

Speaker 3

Hi, Budd.

Speaker 6

Congratulations on the performance in the quarter, very heartening. Jeff, you talked about those 4 items and I think Marshall stressed that price cost was important during this quarter and still remains positive, but less so going forward. Can you talk about which rank of the other 3 in terms of importance in this quarter and what's left to get in terms of productivity, streamlining costs or simplifying?

Speaker 3

Yes. But in the Q1, we had about $14,000,000 of favorable price cost. So that was the biggest item, but a very close second was productivity, which is about $12,000,000 of benefit year over year. The actual SG and A cost was smaller than that. Moving forward, it's about productivity.

Speaker 3

Price cost is still going to be positive as I mentioned the rest of the year, but less so and productivity ramps up. So as Jeff mentioned, we're expecting around $35,000,000 of incremental net productivity benefit year over year. Compare that to maybe price cost of the year of 15 to 20, 14 of which was already in the Q1.

Speaker 6

Okay. And by the end of the year, where do you think the legacy HNI Workplace Furnishings margins will be? And what's still the goal? Is it still gold double digit?

Speaker 3

Look, our goal is more ambitious than double digit, but we may not quite get there this year, but we're certainly trying and expect to see margin expansion going forward.

Speaker 6

Okay. I'm going to ask you to define a word for me, and that word is solidly, which is an adjective you used, I think, to describe the performance in the Q2. You want to put some framework on solidly?

Speaker 3

Gosh, but that's a tricky one.

Speaker 6

That's why I argue, Marzor, you know that type of music.

Speaker 3

Yes. I'm not sure we got a lot of color for you on that one. What I'd maybe point to you, Budd, is that I think the consensus $0.64 And so I think that would be up solidly versus the prior year to kind of give some color to it.

Speaker 6

Okay. Well, let's take the year a different way. Do you when we get to the normal earnings per share seasonality performance of maybe 1 third, 2 thirds or 30, 70 for the first half, second half. Was that your thinking?

Speaker 3

Yes, that's exactly what we're thinking. That seventythirty, onethree, twothree range is right on.

Speaker 6

Okay. That's very helpful. In Residential Building Products, curious to everybody we hear has pretty much said business is a little punk, but we're optimistic going forward. And I'm trying to understand the reasons for the optimism and where are you seeing that? Are you seeing

Speaker 3

it in orders? Is the order book so solid that's giving you that improvement?

Speaker 2

Yes, Budd, what I would say is, on the new construction side, if you look at our Q1 orders, we were down low single digits and that's now flipped to a positive order growth rate in the new construction side. So that's probably what we're talking about. But even if you talk about R and R, the decline was in the low 20s in the order book, but it's now that decline is moderating. So it's that's a sign of some optimism as we go out throughout the year in 2024 on the RVP side.

Speaker 3

Maybe if I just add to that, the Q1 rates, I think Jeff mentioned this in his prepared comments, are kind of distorted. So I don't they don't provide a very good look through of what like the next quarter's revenue would be because of all the noise in the prior year comp. So maybe that helps a bit too. Got you.

Speaker 6

And for me, just I want to make sure I understand something. I'm very I am delighted to hear that you're seeing improvement in contract. And I've had no problem with the thought that it was going to grind forward until about sometime middle part of last week when the ABI came out and hit me in the face with a pretty sizable drop. And that always is a worrisome issue. This has dissuade me of that concern.

Speaker 3

But I think that the drivers in contract are mixed. There's a lot of reasons to believe we're going to see some good growth. Our preorder metrics are up. Certainly, the adoption of hybrid and people moving space, taking advantage of attractive lease rates, create furniture events, those are all good. But then there's things like you just mentioned, the ADI is down, people are worried, rates are up.

Speaker 3

So that's why we kind of think it mixes together to be a kind of a slow grind up. But that's where we're at. We're not thinking we're seeing dramatically high growth in the back half, but maybe something in the small, the mid single digits in the back half year over year for contract.

Speaker 2

Yes, Budd, it's clearly still choppy out there on all those factors Marshall just mentioned, but a slight as you kind of snap a line on this, we see it just slightly ticking up, which is great news for us because we're able to kind of deliver expanded margins without that. And once that volume growth even a couple of points comes, that's going to lever through pretty good for us.

Speaker 6

Got you. And I lied, I do have one more question on that $75,000,000 to $80,000,000 of incremental Kimball revenues. Is that above the $52,000,000

Speaker 3

or $56,000,000

Speaker 6

that you reported in the Q2 of 2023? Dollars

Speaker 3

How do you think about that? Correct. Yes, that's yes, correct. But that's incremental versus last year. So that's not their total revenue for the quarter.

Speaker 3

That's just the incremental year over year.

Speaker 6

So it will be in that $135,000,000 to $140,000,000 range is your best guess now?

Speaker 3

Correct.

Speaker 6

Okay. Marshall, thank you very much. And Jeff and team, congratulations on a really, as you would say, solid quarter.

Speaker 2

Thanks, Budd.

Operator

Your next question comes from the line of Kathryn Thompson with Thompson Research Group. Please go ahead.

Speaker 7

Hi. Thank you for taking my questions today. Following up on the non resin market and the ABI, Our primary research and feedback from the field paints a little bit different picture than the ABI and what large commercial contractors are sharing with us is that the mega projects and some projects simply aren't being captured by the ABI, which I guess leads to the question of as you look at mega projects, in what ways does HNI participate? And what ways are ways that you can win?

Speaker 3

Hey, Catherine, good question. Just to clarify, you're referring to workplace furnishings and how we would participate in large projects there?

Speaker 2

Yes, Catherine. I mean we yes, yes, yes, we participate strongly in those projects. We have corporate account sales teams. We've got dealers that are well positioned and we have a lot of activity in that space. And I tend to agree with you there is activity that people have been on the sidelines for quite some time and a lot of people now have kicked the can and the leases can't be kicked anymore.

Speaker 2

And so people are starting to get active in that space. And so we have exposure to that space. We always have. We talk about SMB a lot because we're kind of uniquely positioned there, but we're clearly positioned in the top 10 markets for those mega projects as well and routinely have those in our funnel and track them. And I would say that there is more dialogue on those types of events than there has been last couple of years.

Speaker 7

Follow me on just once again on the commercial contractor space. Historically, HNI has been focused on Middle America, whereas the coast have been for some of your peers in terms of just relative strength. And with population shift, it's been much talked about to the Southeast and Southwest. So a lot of it still is in Middle America, but it's just kind of shifted south. As you look at growth in these big cities, are you able to capture your fair share in the southern half of Middle America as in versus just kind of more the Midwestern portions of the U.

Speaker 7

S? I hope that question makes sense. It's just mainly about capturing your fair share where that population shift is going.

Speaker 3

Yes. Just maybe to clarify, we participate broadly through the U. S. We're in large cities. We're in large coastal cities.

Speaker 3

We have good share in those cities. So, just want to make sure that don't get the impression that we're just in the Midwest. That's definitely not the case. We're broadly speaking.

Speaker 7

Well, yes, yes, it was mainly like Midtown Manhattan versus Chicago, that type, Miami versus Nashville.

Speaker 3

Right. I think we look a lot like the U. S. Employment base where it is spread out. And of course, we've got our unique position in the non top 10 markets where we really have very strong position.

Speaker 3

But that's not to say we're not also participating in the larger markets. And I think KAI better positions us for that population shift as well as the product shift that's going on. So we feel pretty good about being able to catch the growth that is out there, Catherine.

Speaker 2

Yes, absolutely. I think we kind of have been sitting in neutral in some of these larger markets like a lot of people have been because the clients have been sitting in neutral. So as I just commented, those engines are starting to warm up a bit and we like the population migration and KII, as Marshall said, only strengthens that because the secondary geographies, the product breadth and depth, the price points, the product mixing that's going on for flexibility at all allows us to capture our fair share, if not more than our fair share in those markets.

Speaker 7

Okay, great. And then final question for today on Temple. You've given some great detail on the call today and in the Q and A. And clearly made some solid progress from a margin expansion standpoint. But stepping back and looking at the forest for the trees as we come to anniversarying that deal, what are 2 or 3 things that had been upside to you that maybe you learned after acquiring company that gives you hope and optimism for the future?

Speaker 2

Yes, Catherine, I would say, I kind of said that in my opening remarks, I would say, the product application that they have, the exposure, we like that, but I think that's probably stronger than we even imagined. The hospitality space, which we didn't know a lot about, but has been a nice surprise and upside. And in healthcare, we didn't have a lot of exposure to healthcare, and they have a nice piece of healthcare business as well that has really added. And then you wrap all that in what I say is the real super ingredient is the cultural fit. These deals tend to turn on culture and people and you stack that and wrap that around the three things I just mentioned and it's all been a plus plus.

Speaker 2

We knew it was a plus, but it's been a plus plus from my perspective.

Speaker 7

Perfect. Thanks. Best of luck. Thanks.

Operator

And there are no further questions at this time. I'll turn the call back over to Mr. Lorenger for any closing remarks.

Speaker 2

Yes. Thank you. Thank you for your interest in HNI and thanks everybody taking the time to join us on this Monday morning. Have a great day.

Operator
