NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C., Oct. 23, 2019 – Ingevity Corporation (NYSE:NGVT) today reported third quarter net sales of $359.9 million, representing an increase of 15.6% versus $311.2 million in the prior year’s third quarter. Net income of $59.9 million, increased 15.9% versus $51.7 million in the previous year’s quarter. Ingevity’s third quarter net income margin of 16.6% was level to prior year. The third quarter diluted earnings per share were $1.41 compared to $1.16 in the prior year period.

Adjusted earnings of $62.2 million were up 26.2% versus prior year quarter of $49.3 million. Diluted adjusted earnings per share were $1.46, which exclude, net of tax, $0.05 related to both restructuring charges and costs associated with the acquisition of the Capa® caprolactone business. This compares to adjusted earnings per share of $1.15 in the prior year quarter. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) of $114.0 million were up 25.7% versus third quarter 2018 adjusted EBITDA of $90.7 million. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 31.7% was up 260 basis points from the prior year’s third quarter adjusted EBITDA margin of 29.1%.

“In the face of challenging global economic conditions, we delivered a strong third quarter performance in line with our expectations,” said Michael Wilson, Ingevity’s president and CEO. “We posted earnings that were 26% higher on revenues that were up 16%. What’s more, we generated outstanding free cash flow of $97 million, up 40% versus the prior year’s quarter that reduced our leverage and brought our net debt to adjusted EBITDA down to 2.9 times.”

Performance Chemicals

Third quarter 2019 sales in the Performance Chemicals segment were $229.7 million, up $14.8 million, or 6.9%, versus the third quarter 2018. Segment EBITDA were $59.8 million, up $10.7 million, or 21.8%, versus the prior year quarter segment EBITDA. Segment EBITDA margin rose 320 basis points to 26.0%.

“Sales in most areas of the Performance Chemicals segment were negatively impacted by weak market fundamentals, especially in Europe and Asia,” said Wilson. “Against this backdrop, we benefitted from the acquisition of the Capa caprolactone business – which we refer to as engineered polymers – and continued margin improvement.”

Sales decreased in industrial specialties applications due to demand weakness, deliberately lower sales to low-margin ink applications, and oversupply of alternate materials. Oilfield applications sales decreased based on slowing North American drilling and production. Sales to pavement technologies applications were up slightly as improved weather conditions strengthened paving activity in North America; this was partially offset by reductions in overseas markets. “Sales for the engineered polymers product line were notably below the prior year’s period due primarily to weak market demand in Europe,” Wilson said. “However, our margins for these products are strong and have remained consistent quarter to quarter.”

Segment EBITDA benefitted from increases in volumes and price and mix, but were partially offset by slightly higher production costs.

Performance Materials

Third quarter 2019 sales in the Performance Materials segment were $130.2 million, up $33.9 million, or 35.2%, versus the third quarter 2018. Segment EBITDA were $54.2 million, up $12.6 million, or 30.3%, versus the prior year segment EBITDA. Segment EBITDA margin decreased 160 basis points to 41.6%.

“Once again, the Performance Materials segment turned in outstanding results,” said Wilson. “Because of the regulatory driven growth in this segment, results were not noticeably impacted by current economic conditions. In China, automakers continue to implement the nationwide China 6 gasoline vapor emission control standards at very strong pace. This has led to a step-change increase in sales for the Performance Materials segment in China and overall.”

Wilson said the segment is continuing to see strong growth in sales of its patented ‘honeycomb’ scrubber products used by automotive customers to meet U.S. and Canadian regulatory standards, and is realizing increases in Europe driven primarily by the European Union’s Euro 6d standard.

Segment EBITDA increased due to very strong volume increases, and price and mix, but were partially offset by the consumption of higher cost inventory associated with the Zhuhai, China, plant scale-up; plant spending related to planned maintenance outages at several facilities; and by increased legal expenses associated with protecting intellectual property.

Outlook

Ingevity revised its fiscal year 2019 guidance to sales from between $1.28 billion and $1.30 billion and adjusted EBITDA from between $390 million and $400 million.

“Despite challenging global macroeconomic conditions, we will, nevertheless, deliver strong year-over-year results for 2019,” said Wilson.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Ingevity has presented certain financial measures which have not been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Definitions of our non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP are included in the financial schedules accompanying this news release, under the section entitled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

A reconciliation of net income to adjusted EBITDA as projected for 2019 is not provided. Ingevity does not forecast net income as it cannot, without unreasonable effort, estimate or predict with certainty various components of net income. These components, net of tax, include further restructuring and other income (charges), net; additional acquisition and other related costs in connection with the acquisition of Georgia-Pacific’s pine chemical business and Perstorp Holding AB’s Capa caprolactone business; additional pension and postretirement settlement and curtailment (income) charges; and revisions due to future guidance and assessment of U.S. tax reform. Additionally, discrete tax items could drive variability in our projected effective tax rate. All of these components could significantly impact such financial measures. Further, in the future, other items with similar characteristics to those currently included in adjusted EBITDA, that have a similar impact on comparability of periods, and which are not known at this time, may exist and impact adjusted EBITDA.

Ingevity Corporation

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Ingevity has presented certain financial measures, defined below, which have not been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and has provided a reconciliation to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. These financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP.

We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide management as well as investors, potential investors, securities analysts and others with useful information to evaluate the performance of the business, because such measures, when viewed together with our financial results computed in accordance with GAAP, provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting our historical financial performance and projected future results.

Ingevity uses the following non-GAAP measures:

Adjusted earnings (loss) is defined as net income (loss) attributable to Ingevity stockholders plus restructuring and other (income) charges, acquisition and other related costs, pension and postretirement settlement and curtailment (income) charges and the income tax expense (benefit) on those items, less the provision (benefit) from certain discrete tax items.

Diluted adjusted earnings (loss) per share is defined as diluted earnings (loss) per common share attributable to Ingevity stockholders plus restructuring and other (income) charges, net per share, acquisition and other related costs per share, pension and postretirement settlement and curtailment (income) charges per share and the income tax expense (benefit) per share on those items, less the per share tax provision (benefit) from certain discrete tax items.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) plus provision for income taxes, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, restructuring and other (income) charges, acquisition and other related costs, and pension and postretirement settlement and curtailment (income) charges.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Net Sales

Net Debt is defined as the sum of short-term debt, current maturities of long-term debt and long-term debt less the sum of cash and cash equivalents and restricted investment.

Net Debt Ratio is defined as Net Debt divided by last twelve months Adjusted EBITDA, inclusive of acquisition-related pro forma adjustments.

Free Cash Flow is defined as the sum of cash provided (required) by the following items: operating activities less capital expenditures

The Company also uses the above financial measures as the primary measures of profitability used by managers of the business. In addition, the Company believes Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are useful measures because they exclude the effects of financing and investment activities as well as non-operating activities. None of these non-GAAP financial measures are intended to replace the presentation of financial results in accordance with GAAP and investors should consider the limitations associated with these non-GAAP measures, including the potential lack of comparability of these measures from one company to another. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures are set forth within the following pages.

A reconciliation of net income to adjusted EBITDA as projected for 2019 is not provided. Ingevity does not forecast net income as it cannot, without unreasonable effort, estimate or predict with certainty various components of net income. These components, net of tax, include further restructuring and other income (charges), net; additional acquisition and other related costs in connection with the acquisition of Georgia-Pacific’s pine chemical business and Perstorp Holding AB’s Capa caprolactone business; additional pension and postretirement settlement and curtailment (income) charges; and revisions due to future guidance and assessment of U.S. tax reform. Additionally, discrete tax items could drive variability in our projected effective tax rate. All of these components could significantly impact such financial measures. Further, in the future, other items with similar characteristics to those currently included in adjusted EBITDA, that have a similar impact on comparability of periods, and which are not known at this time, may exist and impact adjusted EBITDA.

_______________
(1) Pro forma amount includes historical results of the Caprolactone Business, prior to the acquisition date of February 13, 2019. This amount also includes adjustments as if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2018, including the effects of purchase accounting. The pro forma amounts do not include adjustments for expenses related to integration activities, cost savings, or synergies that have been or may have been realized had we acquired the businesses on January 1, 2018.

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared to also illustrate the effect of the acquisition of the Capa™ Caprolactone division (“Caprolactone Business”) of Perstorp Holding AB (the “Seller”) by Ingevity. The acquisition of the Caprolactone Business was completed on February 13, 2019 through the purchase of all outstanding equity in Perstorp UK Ltd. which was previously held by the Seller for a total of €578.9 million, less debt assumed plus accrued interest (the “Caprolactone Acquisition”). The Company funded the Caprolactone Acquisition through a combination of borrowings under Ingevity’s revolving credit facilities and cash on hand. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information gives effect to the Capa Acquisition.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information gives effect to the Caprolactone Acquisition and the incurrence of additional debt used to fund the acquisition, as if the acquisition had been consummated on January 1, 2018, and combines Ingevity’s historical results for the periods presented.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information gives effect to the Caprolactone Acquisition under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standard Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations. The historical financial information has been adjusted in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information to give effect to pro forma adjustments that are (1) directly attributable to the acquisitions, (2) factually supportable, and (3) with respect to the statements of operations, expected to have a continuing impact.  In addition, the historical combined financial statements of the Caprolactone Business have been adjusted to reflect certain reclassifications to conform to Ingevity’s financial statement presentation.

The unaudited pro forma financial information included herein has been prepared by management in accordance with the regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and are not necessarily indicative of the combined financial position or results of operations that would have been realized had the Caprolactone Acquisition occurred as of the date indicated, nor are they meant to be indicative of any anticipated financial position or future results of operations. In addition, the accompanying unaudited pro forma financial information does not include any expected cost savings, operating synergies, or revenue enhancement, which may be realized subsequent to the Caprolactone Acquisition or the impact of any nonrecurring activity and one-time transaction-related costs. The ultimate recognition of such costs and liabilities would affect amounts in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, and such costs and liabilities could be material.

The estimated fair values used for the purpose of adjusting for the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are preliminary, as the determination of fair value of the assets and liabilities requires extensive use of estimates and management’s judgment. Final valuations will be performed and management anticipates that the values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed may be adjusted during the one-year measurement period following the date of completion of each acquisition. Differences between these preliminary estimates and the final acquisition accounting may occur and could have a material impact on the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. The pro forma adjustments are based on information available to management and assumptions that management believes are factually supportable at the time the pro forma information was prepared. Ingevity undertakes no obligation to publicly release any revision to the unaudited pro forma information to update them to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this disclosure.

For more information regarding Ingevity’s unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, see “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information” in Ingevity’s Current Report on Form 8-K/A (“Form 8-K/A”) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on April 12, 2019, a copy of which may be obtained by visiting the web site of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, at www.sec.gov. Presented below is a quarterly impact of certain pro forma adjustments for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2018.
