Grace Reports Second Quarter 2014 Adjusted EPS of $1.22

Sales increased 4 percent to $838 million
Adjusted EBIT increased 8 percent to $166 million
Grace net income increased to $136.2 million, or $1.77 per diluted share
2014 Adjusted EBIT outlook range narrowed to $620-$640 million

Columbia, MD - July 23, 2014 - W. R. Grace & Co. (NYSE: GRA) announced second quarter net income of $136.2 million, or $1.77 per diluted share. Net income for the prior-year quarter was $90.3 million, or $1.16 per diluted share. Adjusted EPS was $1.22 per diluted share, unchanged from the prior-year quarter.
 
“I’m pleased with our progress this quarter,” said Fred Festa, Grace's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We had strong results in Catalysts Technologies with continued acceptance of our new FCC product platforms and strong performance in polypropylene process technology licensing. Materials Technologies is on track with steady sales growth and margin improvement. Construction Products grew during the quarter, but less than we had expected primarily due to delays in commercial projects.”

Second Quarter Results     
Second quarter net sales of $838.0 million increased 4.4 percent compared with the prior-year quarter. The year-over-year increase was due to higher sales volumes (+4.0 percent), favorable currency translation (+0.3 percent), and improved pricing (+0.1 percent). Acquisitions contributed 3.7 percent to sales volume growth.

Segment Gross Margin of 38.6 percent increased 80 basis points compared with the prior-year period.

Adjusted EBIT of $166.1 million increased 8.3 percent from the prior-year quarter primarily due to increased segment operating income and a gain related to the termination of certain retiree benefit plans.

The UNIPOL® Polypropylene Process Technology Licensing and Catalysts business acquired in December 2013 contributed approximately $10.6 million to Adjusted EBIT after acquisition-related costs of approximately $1 million.

Adjusted EBIT margin of 19.8 percent increased 70 basis points compared with the prior-year quarter.

Adjusted EBIT Return On Invested Capital was 27.4 percent on a trailing four-quarter basis, unchanged compared with December 31, 2013.

Six Month Results
For the six months ended June 30, 2014, sales increased 4.6 percent to $1.58 billion as higher sales volumes (+5.3 percent) more than offset unfavorable pricing (-0.2 percent) and unfavorable currency translation (-0.5 percent). Acquisitions contributed 3.8 percent to sales volume growth.

Segment Gross Margin of 37.5 percent was unchanged compared with the prior-year period.

Adjusted EBIT of $277.4 million increased 2.7 percent compared with the prior-year period.

Grace Catalysts Technologies
Sales up 7.7 percent; segment operating income up 3.9 percent
Second quarter sales for the Catalysts Technologies operating segment, which includes specialty catalysts and additives for refinery, plastics and other chemical process applications, were $313.2 million, an increase of 7.7 percent compared with the prior-year quarter. The increase primarily was due to higher sales volumes (+8.6 percent) and favorable currency translation (+1.7 percent), partially offset by lower pricing (-2.6 percent). The UNIPOL acquisition contributed 10.2 percent to sales volume growth.

Sales of Refinery Catalysts decreased 2.0 percent as lower pricing more than offset improved sales volumes and favorable currency translation. Sales of Specialty Catalysts increased 36.7 percent due to higher sales volumes (including polypropylene licensing and catalyst sales), improved pricing, and favorable currency translation.

Segment gross margin was 43.6 percent compared with 42.0 percent in the prior-year quarter. The increase in gross margin primarily was due to strong polypropylene process technology licensing revenue, and higher sales volumes, which offset lower pricing.

Segment operating income was $97.5 million compared with $93.8 million in the prior-year quarter. Higher segment gross profit and lower operating expenses more than offset the $6.1 million decline in equity income from the ART joint venture and higher amortization expense related to acquisitions.

Grace Materials Technologies
Sales up 3.2 percent; segment operating income up 10.9 percent
Second quarter sales for the Materials Technologies operating segment, which includes engineered materials for consumer, industrial, coatings and pharmaceutical applications, and packaging technologies, were $236.1 million, an increase of 3.2 percent compared with the prior-year quarter. The increase was due to higher sales volumes (+1.3 percent), favorable currency translation (+1.1 percent), and improved pricing (+0.8 percent).

Engineered Materials sales increased 6.7 percent due to higher sales volumes, favorable currency translation, and improved pricing. Packaging Technologies sales decreased 1.2 percent as lower sales volumes and unfavorable currency translation more than offset improved pricing.

Segment gross margin was 35.0 percent, an increase of 130 basis points compared with the prior-year quarter. The increase in gross margin primarily was due to improved pricing, lower manufacturing costs, and higher sales volumes.

Segment operating income increased 10.9 percent to $49.7 million compared with $44.8 million in the prior-year quarter. Segment operating margin increased 150 basis points to 21.1 percent.

Grace Construction Products
Sales up 1.9 percent; segment operating income down 0.7 percent
Second quarter sales for the Construction Products operating segment, which includes Specialty Construction Chemicals (SCC) products and Specialty Building Materials (SBM) products used in commercial, infrastructure, and residential construction, were $288.7 million compared with $283.2 million in the prior-year quarter. The sales increase was due to improved pricing (+2.4 percent) and higher sales volumes (+1.4 percent), which more than offset unfavorable currency translation (-1.9 percent).

SCC sales increased 4.2 percent due to higher sales volumes and improved pricing, partially offset by unfavorable currency translation. SCC sales in North America and Western Europe increased 6 percent and 5 percent, respectively. SCC sales in emerging regions increased approximately 1 percent.

SBM sales decreased 1.4 percent as lower sales volumes more than offset improved pricing and favorable currency translation. SBM sales in North America, which represented approximately 50 percent of product line sales, decreased 7 percent.

Segment gross margin of 36.2 percent declined 60 basis points compared with the prior-year quarter as higher manufacturing costs and weak product mix more than offset improved pricing.

Segment operating income was $45.0 million compared with $45.3 million for the prior-year quarter. Segment operating margin was 15.6 percent compared with 16.0 percent in the prior-year quarter.

In the quarter, the company repositioned its Verifi® process control technology business, due to slower than projected market adoption of this new technology and lower than expected operating profitability. Grace recorded a $10 million asset impairment charge and a small restructuring charge in the quarter. These charges are not included in segment operating income.

Other Expenses
Total corporate costs were $22.7 million for the second quarter, a decrease of $1.0 million compared with the prior-year quarter.

In the second quarter, the company announced the termination of certain retiree benefit plans, resulting in a gain of $7.9 million, of which $4.7 million is included in Adjusted EBIT.

Certain pension costs of $8.1 million increased $1.2 million compared with the prior-year quarter largely
due to higher interest expense. Certain pension costs include only ongoing costs recognized quarterly,
which include service and interest costs, expected returns on plan assets and amortization of prior
service costs/credits.

Interest expense and related financing costs were $11.1 million for the second quarter compared with $10.9 million for the prior-year quarter. Non-cash interest accretion on the deferred payment obligations was $13.6 million for the second quarter or $0.11 per diluted share. The weighted average cash interest rate for the second quarter was 3.3 percent.

Income Taxes
Income taxes on adjusted pre-tax income were recorded at a global effective tax rate of approximately 34.5 percent. In the second quarter, Grace also recorded a net discrete tax benefit of $53.5 million, primarily related to the recognition of benefits for uncertain tax positions.

Grace generally has not had to pay U.S. Federal income taxes in recent years since available tax deductions and credits have fully offset its U.S. tax liability. Grace generated approximately $670 million in U.S. Federal net operating losses upon emergence from bankruptcy on February 3, 2014. Income taxes paid in cash, net of refunds, were $16.4 million during the six months of 2014, or approximately 8 percent of income before income taxes.

Cash Flow
Net cash used for operating activities in the first six months of 2014 was $1.19 billion compared with net cash provided by operating activities of $170 million in the prior-year period. The year-over-year change in cash flow largely was due to the payment of $1.32 billion as a result of the company’s emergence from Chapter 11.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow in the first six months of 2014 was $178.2 million compared with $157.0 million in the prior-year period.

Share Repurchase Program
In the second quarter, Grace spent $173 million to repurchase approximately 1.8 million shares at an average price of $94.29. Through June 30, Grace spent $234 million to repurchase approximately 2.4 million shares under its $500 million share repurchase authorization.

2014 Outlook
As of July 23, 2014, Grace expects 2014 Adjusted EBIT to be in the range of $620 million to $640 million, an increase of 12 to 17 percent compared with 2013 Adjusted EBIT of $550.8 million. The company expects Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $760 million to $780 million.

W. R. Grace & Co. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Financial Information
(A): In the above charts, Grace presents its results of operations by operating segment and for adjusted operations. Adjusted EBIT means net income adjusted for interest income and expense, income taxes, costs related to Chapter 11, asbestos-related costs, restructuring expenses and related asset impairments, pension costs other than service and interest costs, expected returns on plan assets, and amortization of prior service costs/credits, certain income and expense items related to divested businesses, product lines, and certain other investments and gains and losses on sales of businesses, product lines, and certain other investments. In the 2013 first quarter, we also adjusted for the currency transaction loss incurred on our Venezuelan cash balances of $6.9 million. Adjusted EBITDA means Adjusted EBIT adjusted for depreciation and amortization. Grace uses Adjusted EBIT as a performance measure in significant business decisions. Adjusted Free Cash Flow means net cash provided by or used for operating activities minus capital expenditures plus the net cash flow from costs related to Chapter 11, cash paid to resolve contingencies subject to Chapter 11, accelerated payments under defined benefit pension arrangements, and expenditures for asbestos-related items. Grace uses Adjusted Free Cash Flow as a liquidity measure to evaluate its ability to generate cash to support its ongoing business operations, to invest in its businesses, and to provide a return of capital to shareholders. Adjusted EPS means Diluted EPS adjusted for costs related to Chapter 11, asbestos-related costs, restructuring expenses and related asset impairments, pension costs other than service and interest costs, expected returns on plan assets, and amortization of prior service costs/credits, certain income and expense items related to divested businesses, product lines, and certain other investments and gains and losses on sales of businesses, product lines, and certain other investments, and certain discrete tax items. Adjusted EBIT Return On Invested Capital means Adjusted EBIT divided by the sum of net working capital, properties and equipment and certain other assets and liabilities. Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted EPS, and Adjusted EBIT Return On Invested Capital do not purport to represent income measures as defined under United States generally accepted accounting principles, and should not be considered as alternatives to such measures as an indicator of Grace's performance. These measures are provided to distinguish the operating results of Grace's current business base from the costs of Grace's Chapter 11 proceedings, asbestos liabilities, restructuring activities, and divested businesses.

(B): Grace's segment operating income includes only Grace's share of income from consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures.

(C): Certain pension costs include only ongoing costs recognized quarterly, which include service and interest costs, expected returns on plan assets, and amortization of prior service costs/credits. Catalysts Technologies, Materials Technologies, and Construction Products segment operating income and corporate costs do not include any amounts for pension expense. Other pension related costs including annual mark-to-market adjustments and actuarial gains and losses are excluded from Adjusted EBIT. These amounts are not used by management to evaluate the performance of Grace's businesses and significantly affect the peer-to-peer and period-to-period comparability of our financial results. Mark-to-market adjustments and actuarial gains and losses relate primarily to changes in financial market values and actuarial assumptions and are not directly related to the operation of Grace's businesses.

(D): During the bankruptcy, Grace had significant intercompany loans between its non-U.S. subsidiaries and its U.S. debtor subsidiaries that were not related to its operating activities. In addition, Grace had accumulated significant cash during bankruptcy. Accordingly, income and expense items related to the intercompany loans and the cash balances are categorized as costs related to Chapter 11. These intercompany loans were paid in full when Grace emerged from bankruptcy, and the excess cash balances were used to fund a significant portion of Grace's emergence from bankruptcy.

(E): Other expense, net includes amounts previously reported as restructuring expenses and related asset impairments and provision for environmental remediation.
