www.active-investors.com/registration-sg/?symbol=DOOR

Earnings Highlights and Summary

Masonite’s net sales increased 6% to $518 million in Q3 2017 from $490 million in Q3 2016. The increase in net sales was a result of a 3% increase in volume, primarily due to higher volumes in the Company’s North American Residential and Europe segments, a 2% increase in average unit price and a 1% benefit from foreign exchange. Masonite’s sales numbers surpassed analysts’ expectations of $509.9 million.

During Q3 2017, Masonite’s gross profit was essentially flat at $104 million on a y-o-y basis. The Company’s gross profit margin decreased 110 basis points to 20.1%, principally due to higher materials costs and distribution inefficiencies related to maintaining customer service levels.

Masonite’s selling, general, and administrative expenses (SG&A) of $59 million, down 7% on a y-o-y basis. The decline in SG&A was driven by an $8 million decrease in personnel costs, primarily due to a reduction in the Company’s incentive pay accrual. This decrease was partially offset by a $2 million increase in marketing costs and $1 million of professional fees.

For Q3 2017, net income attributable to Masonite decreased to $29.48 million, or $1.000 per diluted share, compared to earnings of $32.01 million, or $1.03 per diluted share, in Q3 2016. The Company’s Q3 2016 results benefited from a $5 million gain related to the sale of Masonite Africa Limited.

For Q3 2017, Masonite’s adjusted earnings were $1.00 per diluted share compared to $0.89 per diluted share in Q3 2016, ahead of Wall Street’s estimates of $0.92 per share. The Company’s adjusted EBITDA increased 7% to $70 million in the reported quarter versus $65 million in the prior year’s same quarter.

Masonite’s Segment Results

During Q3 2017, the North American Residential segment’s net sales jumped 8% to $364.2 million compared to $337.2 million in Q3 2016, driven by a 5% increase in volume aided by new retail business in Florida, a 1% growth in average unit price and a 1% benefit from foreign exchange related to the Canadian dollar.

For Q3 2017, the Europe segment’s net sales advanced 7% to $74.8 million versus $218.6 million in Q3 2016 due to higher volumes from the merchant and contractor remodel channels. A 1% increase in Average unit price (AUP) was essentially offset by a 1% decrease in the sale of component products.

Masonite’s sales from the Architectural segment totaled $74 million, reflecting a 4% decrease from Q3 2016 net sales of $76.6 million, driven by an 8% decline in sales volume which was partially offset by a 4% increase in AUP and higher components sales. The segment’s sales volume declined due to higher production backlogs resulting primarily from the transition of products from the Algoma, Wisconsin plant to other sites

Cash Matters

At October 02, 2017, available liquidity totaled $323 million, including unrestricted cash and accounts receivable, purchase agreement and the Company’s ABL facility. At the end of Q3 2017, the Company’s total debt and net debt to trailing 12 months adjusted EBITDA were 2.5x and 1.9x, respectively.

About ON 123300

ON 123300 is a first-in-class dual inhibitor of CDK4/6 and ARK5, which is currently in advanced pre-clinical development. It is believed that ON 123300 has the potential to overcome the limitations of current generation CDK 4/6 inhibitors.

The main challenge with cancer cells is that they multiply rapidly. CDK inhibitors disrupt this process by blocking the activity of CDK enzymes. CDK4 and CDK6 regulate cell cycle progression at the G1 restriction point, and are hence considered potential anticancer drug targets.

Onconova showcased pre-clinical data on in-vitro metabolism and bioavailability of ON 123300 at the American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists Annual Meeting and Exposition in November 2017. The data revealed the improved understanding of the metabolism of ON 123300 and the identification of metabolites. It also showed two- to three-fold increase in bioavailability due to the Company’s formulation development efforts.

Terms and Conditions of the Agreement

As per the agreement, HanX will commercialize ON 123300 in Greater China while Onconova would retain the rights for the rest of the world.
The agreement states HanX will provide all funding required for Chinese IND enabling studies performed for the Chinese Food and Drug Administration IND approval. Besides, both Companies expect these studies to comply with the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) standards. Afterwards, Onconova could possibly use these studies for an IND filing with the FDA. Both Onconova and HanX will oversee the IND enabling studies.
In terms of compensation, Onconova will receive an upfront payment, regulatory and commercial milestone payments, as well as royalties on Chinese sales.

Collaboration to Accelerate Advancement of ON 12330

This agreement aims to advance ON 123300 towards a US IND as Onconova aims to create a new standard of care to overcome the limitations of current generation compounds that depend on a combination treatment for therapy. On the other hand, ON 123300 has the potential to act as a single agent, due to the unique targeting of ARK5, as well as CDK4 and 6, making it potentially suitable for indications that may not be responsive to the current generation of CDK4/6 inhibitors, such as Palbociclib.

Onconova intends to focus on its later stage rigosertib clinical development programs in MDS, and looks forward to leveraging the strong expertise of HanX in drug development and commercialization.

HanX Expects to Gain from Potential Synergies

HanX has an emerging pipeline of targeted agents such as proprietary PD-1 checkpoint antibody, which is expected to enter its Phase-1 trial soon. Onconova and HanX share a similar commitment towards developing innovative therapeutics in oncology. Both Companies are collaborating for the development of ON 123300 for patients suffering from many types of cancer, including breast cancer, in China and globally. HanX looks forward to the potential synergies between its pipeline of checkpoint product candidates and Onconova’s CDK inhibitors.
