Sonoco Reports Second Quarter and Year-to-Date 2015 Financial Results
Company Completes Review of Mexico Packaging Center Misstatements
Restates Historical Consolidated Financial Results
Notifies of Late Filing of Second Quarter Form 10-Q
Hartsville, S.C.,U.S. - Sonoco (NYSE: SON), one of the largest diversified global packaging companies, today reported consolidated financial results for the second quarter and year-to-date periods ending June 28, 2015, and restated financial results for the period ended June 29, 2014. The Company previously reported preliminary second quarter 2015 results on July 16, 2015.
Company Completes Review of Mexico Packaging Center Misstatements; Restates Historical Consolidated Financial Results; Notifies of Late Filing of Second Quarter Form 10-Q
As previously reported, in July 2015, the Company discovered the operating results for a packaging center in Irapuato, Mexico, part of the Company’s Display and Packaging segment, had been overstated since 2012. Sonoco, working with outside accounting and legal consultants, conducted a thorough review of financial results which was recently completed. Through this review, the Company determined that reported consolidated revenue and cost of sales had been misstated from 2012 through the first quarter of 2015, resulting in a cumulative overstatement of income before income taxes of $32.4 million and net income of approximately $23.3 million, or $.23 per diluted share. On July 16, 2015, the Company previously reported it expected the cumulative pre-tax impact to be approximately $3 million for the first quarter of 2015 and approximately $30 million for all prior periods, for a total of $33 million.
The Company concluded that the misstatements warranted a restatement of the Company’s financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2013, and 2014 as well as the interim periods within 2014 and the first quarter of 2015. As a result of the work required to complete its investigation of the Mexico packaging center misstatements, the Company was unable to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 28, 2015. The Company has received a letter from the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) indicating that, as a result of its failure to timely file its 2015 second quarter Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company is not in compliance with the continued listing requirements under the timely filing criteria outlined in Section 802.01E of the NYSE-Listed Company Manual. The Company expects to file such report next week, as well as an amended 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A and an amended Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the period ended March 29, 2015, containing restated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012 and the first quarter of 2015. These reports will contain more information regarding the restatement’s impact to the Company’s consolidated and segment financial statements as well as information about the material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Filing these reports will also bring the Company into compliance with the NYSE listing requirements.
Tables shown in this news release detail certain restatements to previously issued financial statements. Further information about the Company’s quarter and year-to-date results for the period ended June 28, 2015, can be found in the Company’s July 16, 2015, news release reporting preliminary results for the 2015 second quarter and in a presentation on the Company’s investor relations website at www.sonoco.com.

(1) Restructuring/Asset impairment charges are a recurring item as Sonoco’s restructuring programs usually require several years to fully implement and the Company is continually seeking to take actions that could enhance its efficiency. Although recurring, these charges are subject to significant fluctuations from period to period due to the varying levels of restructuring activity and the inherent imprecision in the estimates used to recognize the impairment of assets and the wide variety of costs and taxes associated with severance and termination benefits in the countries in which the restructuring actions occur. | |||||||||||||||||

Sonoco Second Quarter 2015 and YTD Results - page 10
Definition of Non-GAAP Financial Measures | |||||||||
The Company’s results determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) are referred to as “as reported” or "GAAP" results. Some of the information presented in this press release reflects the Company’s “as reported” or "GAAP" results adjusted to exclude amounts related to restructuring initiatives, asset impairment charges, environmental charges, acquisition costs, excess insurance recoveries, losses from the early extinguishment of debt, and certain other items, if any, the exclusion of which management believes improves comparability and analysis of the underlying financial performance of the business. These adjustments result in the non-GAAP financial measures referred to in this press release as “Base Earnings” and “Base Earnings per Diluted Share.” | |||||||||
These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Sonoco continues to provide all information required by GAAP, but it believes that evaluating its ongoing operating results may not be as useful if an investor or other user is limited to reviewing only GAAP financial measures. Sonoco uses these non-GAAP financial measures for internal planning and forecasting purposes, to evaluate its ongoing operations, and to evaluate the ultimate performance of each business unit against budget all the way up through the evaluation of the Chief Executive Officer’s performance by the Board of Directors. In addition, these same non-GAAP measures are used in determining incentive compensation for the entire management team and in providing earnings guidance to the investing community. | |||||||||
Sonoco management does not, nor does it suggest that investors should, consider these non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Sonoco presents these non-GAAP financial measures to provide users information to evaluate Sonoco’s operating results in a manner similar to how management evaluates business performance. Material limitations associated with the use of such measures are that they do not reflect all period costs included in operating expenses and may not reflect financial results that are comparable to financial results of other companies that present similar costs differently. Furthermore, the calculations of these non-GAAP measures are based on subjective determinations of management regarding the nature and classification of events and circumstances that the investor may find material and view differently. | |||||||||
To compensate for these limitations, management believes that it is useful in understanding and analyzing the results of the business to review both GAAP information which includes all of the items impacting financial results and the non-GAAP measures that exclude certain elements, as described above. Whenever Sonoco uses a non-GAAP financial measure, it provides a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the most closely applicable GAAP financial measure. Whenever reviewing a non-GAAP financial measure, investors are encouraged to fully review and consider the related reconciliation as detailed herein. | |||||||||
