USG Corporation (NYSE:USG), a leading building products company, today reported fourth quarter 2014 net sales of $954 million, up 4 percent from fourth quarter 2013 net sales of $915 million. USG’s fourth quarter 2014 operating loss was $24 million compared to $60 million of operating profit in the fourth quarter of 2013 due primarily to $75 million of charges for impairments and other related costs associated with its non-core shipping business and $13 million of charges to permanently settle a pension plan in the United Kingdom. Fourth quarter 2014 net loss attributable to USG was $53 million, $0.36 loss per diluted share, and $0.36 loss per basic share. This compares to a $3 million net loss attributable to USG, $0.03 loss per diluted share, and $0.03 loss per basic share in the fourth quarter of 2013.
“I’m pleased with the progress we made towards our Plan to Win during the quarter, delivering strong adjusted operating profit from our operations,” said James S. Metcalf, Chairman, President, and CEO. “All of our businesses are heading in the right direction, and we are well positioned for profitable growth in all of our improving end markets.”
The corporation’s adjusted operating profit was $79 million in the fourth quarter of 2014, which includes, among other items, adjusted equity method investment income of $14 million from USG Boral Building Products, compared to an adjusted operating profit of $75 million in the fourth quarter of 2013. Adjusted net income was $35 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 compared to $22 million in the fourth quarter of 2013. Adjusted net income and adjusted operating profit in the fourth quarter of 2014 excluded long-lived asset impairment charges of $60 million and contract termination and loss on receivable charges of $15 million related to the corporation's non-core shipping business, as well as a pension settlement charge of $13 million related to the wind-up of its pension plan in the United Kingdom. Fourth quarter 2014 adjusted earnings per basic share was $0.24 compared to $0.19 during the fourth quarter of 2013.
USG recorded full year 2014 net sales of $3.7 billion and operating profit of $162 million, with net income attributable to USG of $37 million, $0.25 per diluted share, and $0.26 per basic share. On an adjusted basis for the full year of 2014, adjusted operating profit was $353 million with adjusted net income of $168 million and adjusted earnings per basic share of $1.19. For the full year of 2013, net sales were $3.6 billion and operating profit was $258 million, with net income attributable to USG of $47 million, $0.42 per diluted share, and $0.43 per basic share. On an adjusted basis for the full year of 2013, adjusted operating profit was $278 million with adjusted net income of $73 million and adjusted earnings per basic share of $0.67. A full reconciliation of adjusted net income to net income (loss), adjusted earnings per share to earnings (loss) per share, adjusted operating profit to operating profit (loss), and adjusted equity income from USG Boral Building Products to income (loss) from equity method investments is set forth on a schedule attached hereto.
“In 2014, our adjusted net income of $168 million more than doubled relative to what we generated in 2013, with our USG Boral joint venture contributing significantly to our success," Mr. Metcalf said. "While the pace of the recovery is clearly more shallow than what we were anticipating, our trajectory continues to be positive, and we are confident that 2015 will outperform 2014.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In this press release, the corporation’s financial results are provided both in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and using certain non-GAAP financial measures. In particular, the corporation presents the non-GAAP financial measures adjusted operating profit, adjusted net income, adjusted equity income from USG Boral Building Products, and adjusted earnings per basic share, which exclude certain items. In addition, adjusted operating profit includes the corporation’s income from its equity method investments, including the USG Boral Building Products joint venture. The non-GAAP financial measures are included as a complement to results provided in accordance with GAAP because management believes these non-GAAP financial measures help investors’ ability to analyze underlying trends in the corporation’s business, evaluate its performance relative to other companies in its industry and provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of the corporation’s core operating results. Adjusted operating profit includes the income from the corporation's equity method investments, including the USG Boral Building Products joint venture, because management views the joint venture as a business unit, even though the corporation’s share of the joint venture is 50%. Further, management believes it is appropriate to exclude the indicated items from income from equity method investments, because the resulting adjusted equity income from USG Boral Building Products can be used to evaluate the financial performance of USG Boral Building Products. In addition, the corporation uses adjusted operating profit and adjusted net income as components in the measurement of incentive compensation. The non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results and may vary from others in the industry. For further information related to the corporation’s use of non-GAAP financial measures, and reconciliations to the nearest GAAP measures, see the schedules attached hereto.
| This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 related to management’s expectations about future conditions.
