Beacon Roofing Affected by Slow Growth in the Homebuilding Sector – Analyst Blog

- July 12, 2014 by Mr HomeBuilder

On Jul 10, 2014, we issued an updated research report on Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc. ( BECN ). The roofing material distributor will continue to benefit from its greenfield investment strategy and balance sheet strength, while conservative outlook and pricing pressure remain areas of concern.

Notably, Beacon Roofing opened 4 new greenfields in the second quarter of fiscal 2014, which brings the count to 8 for the year and 17 since last year. The company aims to open 25 additional branches through rest of the year. These new branches should add 2%-3% to organic growth for the year. For 2015 and beyond, Beacon Roofing is planning to open at least 20 branches per year. With growth in core industry trends, we expect the greenfield openings to continue at an accelerated pace in the near term.

Beacon Roofing's growth strategy is also likely to benefit from its strong balance sheet position which is evident from its strong metrics. The company reported cash and cash equivalents of $34 million as of Mar 31, 2014, up from $16.7 million as of Mar 31, 2013. Total leverage ratio was at 1.59x at the end of second quarter compared with 1.62x at the year-ago comparable period. The debt-to-capitalization ratio remains low at 4.5% as of Mar 31, 2014. In addition, interest coverage ratio of Beacon Roofing was 16.2x at the end of second quarter compared with 15.07x at the end of last year.

Despite these positives, Beacon Roofing expects earnings per share to be at the lower end of the current guidance range of $1.50 to $1.80. Beacon Roofing has expanded its business through strategic acquisitions and diversification of its product offering. However, over the last 18 months the company has been inactive on the acquisition front. This puts the company's strategy of growing though acquisitions at risk.

Further, One of Beacon Roofing's suppliers, Owens Corning, recently announced that roofing volumes for the first half of 2014 will be 20%, lower than the year-ago level because of slow growth in the homebuilding sector. This may affect Beacon Roofing's profitability in the near term. In addition, general market softness and pricing pressure remain areas of concern going forward.

Additionally, increase in competition, general market softness, lack of strategic acquisitions and pricing pressure remain matters of concern going forward.

Beacon Roofing currently carries a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell).

Other Stocks to Consider

Some better-ranked stocks in the same industry include Fastenal Company ( FAST ), Aaron's, Inc. ( AAN ) and Advance Auto Parts Inc. ( AAP ). All of these stocks have a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).

Mallards mania remains strong in Madison

- July 12, 2014 by Mr HomeBuilder

After a disappointing first half, in which the Madison Mallards finished third in the Northwoods League South division, the team has shown early signs during the second half of regaining the form that carried it to last year's league championship.

The Mallards improved to 5-2 in the second half with a 7-4 win in Kalamazoo Monday night. Two recent additions to the team, right fielder Connor Marabell from Jacksonville University and shortstop Trace Tam Sing of Washington State, have been instrumental to the quick start. The Mallards are also hoping for help from newcomers Matt Thaiss and Tyler Allen from the University of Virginia, whose team advanced to the College World Series finals late last month.

The Mallards' college roster turns over constantly, but the franchise keeps humming along. Owner Steve Schmitt and the rest of the management team don't always get the credit they're due; before the Mallards, Madison seemed an often indifferent baseball town. Now in their 14th year, the Mallards regularly draw 6,000 fans or more to the Duck Pond at Warner Park. Season after season they enjoy the best attendance in the Northwoods League, and it's not even close for second place. (In fairness, Madison is the biggest market in the league.)

The team's latest home game, a 7-1 loss to Battle Creek last Saturday afternoon, drew more than 6,700. The Bombers broke through for a couple of runs in the fourth inning against Mallards starting pitcher Sterling Sharp (yes, that's his name) and never trailed again.

Again, though, the real story was the crowd. Warner Park was packed, as it often is. Most notably, the stands were full of children; baseball lovers sometimes fear for the future of their sport because of an aging fan demographic, but it wasn't in evidence at the Duck Pond Saturday.
