CEO Remarks

 

“With the agreement to sell our Consumer Products business, this quarter we have adopted discontinued operations treatment for this business,” commented Craig A. Rogerson, Chairman, President and CEO of Chemtura. “In conjunction with our results for the third quarter of 2013, we have provided investors with our recent historical quarterly results recast to reflect the adoption of discontinued operations. While muted in the near term by the weaker demand conditions for our Industrial Engineered Products segment, the divestiture of our Consumer Products business over time will expand Chemtura’s percentage margins and lift our growth rates to assist us in meeting our financial and strategic performance goals. In the interim, the actions we took to eliminate stranded costs associated with the sale of our Antioxidants business contemplated this transaction, giving us a head start. We will eliminate the remaining stranded costs associated with the Consumer Products business upon the closing of the transaction.”

 

“With the liquidity being generated by our portfolio management actions, we are very focused on capital allocation,” continued Mr. Rogerson. “In the third quarter, we repurchased approximately 2.2 million shares under our share repurchase program at a cost of $50 million, using a portion of the proceeds from the Antioxidant sale to return value to shareholders. Following the closing of the Consumer Products transaction, we will pay down debt to maintain our leverage excluding Consumer Products and increase the size of our share repurchase program. Meanwhile, in 2014, with both capital spending and pension plan contributions trending lower, we will be focused on improving free cash flow.”

 

“As discussed in our third quarter outlook, this was a tough quarter for our Industrial Engineered Products segment,” commented Mr. Rogerson. “Unit volume in the quarter was relatively stable sequentially with some growth from insulation foam applications offset by lower electronic volumes as we elected to hold prices. The profitability of the segment deteriorated sequentially through the impact of lower utilization of manufacturing capacity, higher input costs, cumulative effects on pricing and the requirement to establish a reserve against some slower moving electronics inventory. Industrial Performance Products saw comparable conditions to last quarter, but had to absorb the cost of the start-up of their new plants in China and the Netherlands. They ended up falling short of fully offsetting these additional costs. Chemtura AgroSolutions put up another strong quarter, with Adjusted EBITDA up 17% year-on-year.”

 

Outlook

 

“Recast for the discontinued operations treatment of the Consumer Products business, managed basis operating income in the fourth quarter of 2012 was $28 million,” observed Mr. Rogerson. “It is our goal to exceed this performance level, before any costs we incur in our process of exploring the sale of Chemtura AgroSolutions. Although the performance of Chemtura AgroSolutions will be seasonally lower in the fourth quarter than in the third quarter, we anticipate that they, as well as Industrial Performance Products, will deliver year-on-year improvement. Corporate expense will be lower than a year ago. Industrial Engineered Products is expected to improve over its performance in the third quarter of 2013 but is unlikely to reach the operating income it delivered in the fourth quarter of 2012.”

 

Mr. Rogerson concluded, “Demand conditions for Industrial Engineered Products have now been relatively stable for two quarters. While a sudden upturn in demand is less likely in the fourth quarter, we will benefit from actions to take out cost and better utilize our manufacturing assets. We announced increases in certain selling prices for brominated flame retardants in the latter part of the third quarter which have held in some electronic applications but pricing for insulation foam applications remains depressed. The net effect of these actions should be a positive turn in the performance trend for this segment.”

 

Non-Operating Activities Reflected in Our Third Quarter Financial Results

 

•

In September 2013, our Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved the sale of our Consumer Products segment subject to the completion of definitive transaction documents and in October 2013, we entered into a stock purchase agreement to sell our Consumer Products business, including dedicated manufacturing plants in the U.S. and South Africa, to KIK Custom Products Inc. (“KIK”) for $315 million subject to certain customary pre- and post-closing adjustments, primarily for working capital and assumed pension liabilities. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals and is targeted to close on December 31, 2013.

 

•

The assets and liabilities of the Consumer Products segment have been presented as assets and liabilities held for sale. Additionally, we determined that discontinued operations treatment applied and earnings and direct costs associated with the Consumer Products segment have been presented as earnings (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax in the tables attached to this release for the current and comparative periods. On November 4, 2013, we also filed an 8-K attaching comparable information for our historical annual periods for the years ended December 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 and for the quarterly periods in the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2012, the quarterly period ended March 31, 2013, and the quarterly and six month periods ended June 30, 2013.

•

Certain functional and other expenses that are managed company-wide are allocated to our segments. the portion of such costs allocated to the Consumer Products segment do not transfer directly to the buyer under the transaction and will be subject to a process of elimination after the sale. As such, in historic periods these costs are shown as part of continuing operations in the corporate segment and not included under earnings (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax. These costs approximate $5 million and $4 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively and $10 million and $9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Additionally, our Corporate segment included $3 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 and $8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 of amortization expense related directly to our Consumer Products segment which has now been included in earnings (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax in our Consolidated Statement of Operations.

 

•

In July 2013, we undertook a registered public offering of $450 million of 5.75% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “2021 Senior Notes”). The proceeds were primarily utilized to completed the purchase of $354 million of our 7.875% Senior Notes due 2018 (the “2018 Senior Notes”) that had been tendered in a concurrent tender offer and consent solicitation. As a result of this transaction, we recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $50 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2013. Additionally, with the remaining proceeds and cash on hand we made a prepayment on our senior secured term loan facility due 2016 (the “Term Loan”) of $100 million in the third quarter of 2013. These refinancing actions will reduce annual interest expense by approximately $8 million.

 

•

In October 2013, our Board decided to explore the sale of the our agrochemicals business, Chemtura AgroSolutions. There is no definitive timetable for the sale process and there can be no assurance that the process will result in a sale of the Chemtura AgroSolutions business. Therefore, as of September 30, 2013, we did not meet the criteria to report the assets and liabilities associated with this segment as assets held for sale and therefore, the earnings and direct costs of this segment remain as part of our continuing operations.

 

•

In October 2013, we entered into an amendment to our Term Loan. The amendment to the Term Loan (the “Amendment”), among other things, (i) reduces the interest rate and LIBOR floor on the term loans outstanding under the Term Loan agreement (the “term loans”), (ii) provides for a 1% prepayment premium if the term loans are refinanced with certain specified refinancing debt within 6 months, (iii) introduces scheduled quarterly amortization of the term loans in the amount of 1% annually, and (iv) permits additional flexibility for under certain of our operating covenants (including but not limited to additional flexibility for debt, investments, restricted payments and dispositions) in the Term Loan agreement.  The Amendment became effective on October 30, 2013. The amendment will further reduce annual interest expense by approximately $6 million.

 

Third Quarter 2013 Business Segment Highlights

 

•

Industrial Performance Products’ net sales increased $23 million or 11% as a result of a $21 million increase in sales volume, a $1 million year-over-year increase in selling prices and $1 million from favorable foreign currency translation. Operating income on a managed basis decreased $2 million or 7% in the third quarter of 2013 to $26 million. Operating income on a GAAP basis of $24 million included $2 million for the accelerated recognition of asset retirement obligations. Sales volume improvements in our petroleum additives and certain synthetic lubricant products due to a higher demand than a year ago offset some decline in urethane product sales volume which continues to be affected by weak demand in mining and electronic applications across all regions. The benefit of the increased sales volumes was diluted by product mix coupled with some raw material increases. We recorded $2 million of unabsorbed costs related to the initial start-up of our new Nantong, China and Ankerweg, Netherlands facilities. Operating income also reflected increases in our selling, general and administrative costs (“SG&A”) and research and development costs (“R&D”) (collectively, “SGA&R”) offset by the favorable effects of foreign currency translation.

 

•

Industrial Engineered Products’ net sales decreased $5 million or 2% reflecting $14 million in lower selling prices, partly offset by an $8 million increase in sales volumes and $1 million from favorable foreign currency translation. Operating income decreased $29 million from the third quarter of 2012 to $1 million. Lower net sales and operating income reflected lower selling prices and weaker sales volumes year-over-year for our brominated products used in the insulation foam and electronic applications as a result of lower overall end-market demand. Some of this weakness was offset by stronger demand from clear brine fluids used in off-shore gas production and other industrial applications coupled with an increase in volume of organometallic tin-based products and products used as components of polyolefin polymerization catalysts as well as favorable selling prices for the tin-based products. Operating income was unfavorably impacted by an increase in manufacturing costs and unfavorable manufacturing variances of $6 million and a charge of $6 million for the quarter related to excess inventory resulting from the prolonged reduction in electronics volume and $3 million increase in SGA&R and other costs.

 

•

Chemtura AgroSolutions’ net sales increased $5 million or 4% resulting from $6 million in higher selling prices and $3 million in higher sales volume partly offset by $4 million of unfavorable foreign currency translation. Operating income increased $3 million reflecting the higher selling prices, $2 million in lower manufacturing costs and $2 million in lower raw material costs, offset in part by $2 million in unfavorable foreign currency translation, $1 million from product mix changes, and a $2 million increase in other costs. We experienced strong market demand for insecticides and seed treatment products, particularly in Latin America. North America sales volumes declined from the same quarter in 2012 reflecting the relative timing of orders in 2013, having shifted from the third quarter to the second quarter.  Sales volume in Europe benefited from strong weed pressure increasing demand for herbicides and adjuvants.  Operating income also benefited from favorable manufacturing variances due to the higher sales volumes.

•

Corporate expenses for the third quarter of 2013 on a GAAP basis decreased to $19 million compared with $28 million in 2012. Corporate expenses included amortization expense related to intangible assets and depreciation expense of $4 million and $5 million for the third quarters of 2013 and 2012, respectively, and non-cash stock compensation expense of $2 million for the third quarters of 2013 and 2012. The decrease was primarily due to lower accrued expense for employee incentive plan and the sale of a non-operating site, offset by project costs associated with our initiative to explore the sale of Chemtura AgroSolutions, increased workers compensation expense and an increase in our environmental reserves at our El Dorado, Arkansas facility. Stranded costs related to the Antioxidant business were eliminated during the first half of 2013 such that there was no expense in the third quarter of 2013 but were $3 million for the third quarter of 2012. Stranded costs related to the Consumer Products segment were $5 million and $4 million for the third quarters of 2013 and 2012, respectively. Additionally, our Corporate segment included $3 million and $4 million for the third quarters of 2013 and 2012, respectively, of amortization expense related directly to our Antioxidant business and Consumer Products segment which has now been included in earnings (loss) on discontinued operations, net of tax.

 

•

The Consumer Products segment is being reported as a discontinued operation for the current and prior periods.

 

Third Quarter 2013 Results – GAAP

 

 

•

Consolidated net sales of $569 million for the third quarter of 2013 were $23 million or 4% higher than 2012 driven by higher volume of $32 million, offset by lower selling prices of $7 million and unfavorable foreign currency translation of $2 million.

 

•

Gross profit for the third quarter of 2013 was $121 million, a decrease of $27 million compared with the third quarter of 2012. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased to 21% as compared with 27% in the same quarter of 2012. Gross profit was impacted by $6 million in unfavorable manufacturing costs and variances, $7 million in lower selling prices and variances, a charge of $6 million related to an increase in our excess inventory reserve due to the prolonged reduction in electronics demand for our brominated products and a $8 million increase in other costs.

 

•

Operating income for the third quarter of 2013 decreased $23 million to $27 million compared with $50 million for the third quarter of 2012. The decrease was primarily due to the $27 million decrease in gross profit and a $1 million increase in other costs, partly offset by $3 million in lower SGA&R costs and a $2 million decrease in depreciation and amortization expense.

 

•

Included in the computation of operating income for the third quarters of 2013 and 2012 was $3 million and $2 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense. Stock-based compensation expense for continuing operations is expected to be approximately $14 million for 2013.

 

•

Interest expense was $14 million during the third quarter of 2013 which was $3 million lower than 2012, primarily due to higher capitalized interest expense in 2013 and fees associated with the securitization program which was suspended in 2012.

 

•

Loss on the early extinguishment of debt of $50 million in the third quarter of 2013 included $42 million for the difference between the principal amount of the 2018 Senior Notes tendered and the sum of the tender offer consideration and consent payments and $8 million for the write-off of unamortized capitalized financing costs and original issuance discount with respect to the 2018 Senior Notes purchased under the tender offer.

 

•

Other expense, net of $4 million in the third quarter of 2013 was slightly lower than the third quarter of 2012.

 

•

Reorganization items, net was $1 million in the third quarter of 2012 which is comprised primarily of professional fees directly associated with the Chapter 11 reorganization.

 

•

The income tax expense in the third quarter of 2013 was $3 million compared with $5 million in the third quarter of 2012.

•

Net loss from continuing operations attributable to Chemtura for the third quarter of 2013 was $44 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, compared with net earnings from continuing operations attributable to Chemtura of $22 million, or $0.22 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2012.

 

•

Earnings from discontinued operations, net of tax attributable to Chemtura for the third quarter of 2013 was $7 million, or $0.07 per diluted share compared with a loss from discontinued operations, net of tax attributable to Chemtura for the third quarter of 2012 of $13 million, or $0.13 per diluted share. Discontinued operations includes the Antioxidant and Consumer Products businesses.

 

•

Loss on sale of discontinued operations, net of tax attributable to Chemtura for the third quarter of 2013, was $3 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, which represents the Antioxidant business.

 

Third Quarter 2013 Results - Managed Basis

 

•

On a managed basis, third quarter 2013 gross profit was $121 million, as compared with $148 million in the same period last year. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased to 21% as compared with 27% in the same quarter of 2012. The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to unfavorable manufacturing costs and variances, lower selling prices and the increase of $6 million in our excess inventory reserve related to the prolonged reduction in electronics demand for our brominated products.

 

•

On a managed basis, third quarter 2013 operating income was $33 million as compared with $51 million in the same period last year. The decrease in operating income primarily reflected the decrease in gross profit, partially offset by lower SGA&R costs and lower depreciation and amortization expense.

 

•

Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter of 2013 was $59 million as compared with $79 million in the third quarter of 2012 (see the tables attached to this earnings release for a reconciliation of the computation of Adjusted EBITDA). The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was principally driven by lower gross profit offset in part by lower SGA&R costs. Adjusted EBITDA for the last twelve months decreased from $313 million at December 31, 2012 to $273 million at September 30, 2013. Adjusted EBITDA excludes the Antioxidant and Consumer Products businesses which are classified as discontinued operations.

 

•

Net earnings from continuing operations before income taxes on a managed basis in the third quarters of 2013 and 2012 were $15 million and $29 million, respectively, and exclude pre-tax GAAP adjustments of $56 million and $2 million, respectively. These adjustments are primarily related to the loss on early extinguishment of debt, facility closures, severance and related costs, accelerated recognition of asset retirement obligations and accelerated depreciation of property, plant and equipment.

 

•

Chemtura has chosen to apply an estimated tax rate to our managed basis pre-tax income to simplify for investors the comparison of underlying operating performance. In 2012, we applied an estimated managed basis tax rate of 28% reflecting the expected performance of our core operations in 2012. With a projected shift in relative profitability to the U.S. from international operations, in 2013, we are applying an estimated managed basis tax rate of 31%. The estimated managed basis tax rate reflects (i) the impact of the adjustments made in the preparation of pre-tax managed basis income; (ii) the exclusion of the benefit or charge arising from the creation or release of valuation allowances on U.S. income; (iii) the utilization of foreign tax credits generated in the current year; and (iv) the conclusion that we will indefinitely re-invest the majority of the earnings of our foreign subsidiaries in our international operations. We will continue to monitor our estimated managed basis tax rate and may modify it based on changes in the composition of our taxable income and in tax rates around the world.

 

Cash Flows Details - GAAP

Managed Basis Financial Measures

 

The information presented in this press release and in the attached financial tables includes financial measures that are not calculated or presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Our managed basis financial measures consist of adjusted results of operations that exclude certain expenses, gains and losses that may not be indicative of our core operations. Excluded items include costs associated with the bankruptcy reorganization; facility closures, severance and related costs; gains and losses on sale of business and assets; increased depreciation due to the change in useful life of assets; unusual and non-recurring settlements; accelerated recognition of asset retirement obligations: impairment charges; changes in our pension plans as a result of dispositions, merger or significant plan amendments, and the release of cumulative translation adjustments upon the complete or substantial liquidation of any majority-owned entity. They also include the computation of Adjusted EBITDA. In addition to the managed basis financial measures discussed above, we have applied a managed basis effective income tax rate to our managed basis income before taxes. Our managed basis tax rate of 31% in 2013 and 28% in 2012 represents refined estimated tax rates for our core operations to simplify comparison of underlying operating performance. Reconciliations of these managed basis financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are provided in the attached financial tables. We believe that such managed basis financial measures provide useful information to investors and may assist them in evaluating our underlying performance and identifying operating trends. In addition, management uses these managed basis financial measures internally to allocate resources and evaluate the performance of our operations. While we believe that such measures are useful in evaluating our performance, investors should not consider them to be a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these managed basis financial measures may differ from similarly titled managed basis financial measures used by other companies and do not provide a comparable view of our performance relative to other companies in similar industries.
