KAPSTONE REPORTS THIRD QUARTER RESULTS

CASH FLOW ALLOWS FOR $75 MILLION DEBT PREPAYMENT

 

NORTHBROOK, IL — October 25, 2017 — KapStone Paper and Packaging Corporation (NYSE:KS) today reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2017. As compared to 2016’s third quarter, results for 2017’s third quarter are below:

 

·                  Net sales of $868 million up $92 million, or 12 percent

·                  Net income of $30 million down $1 million, or 3 percent

·                  Diluted EPS of $0.30 down $0.02 per share, or 6 percent

 

Non-U.S. GAAP financial measures for the 2017 third quarter are as follows:

 

·                  Adjusted EBITDA of $121 million up $13 million, or 12 percent

·                  Adjusted net income of $38 million up $2 million, or 5 percent

·                  Adjusted diluted EPS of $0.39 up $0.02 per share, or 5 percent

 

Matt Kaplan, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Markets for our products are strong.  In September of 2017, we announced a $50 per ton price increase, effective with shipments in October 2017, for certain specialty paper products, which when fully realized, should yield approximately $25 million annually of additional revenues.

 

“During the third quarter, we streamlined our West Coast box operations with the closure of our Oakland, California box plant and distributed its production to our other facilities including our newest plant in Ontario, California.   The closure resulted in a $9 million pre-tax charge against earnings.

 

“Finally, strong operating cash flow of $126 million in the third quarter of 2017 enabled KapStone to make a $75 million prepayment on our term loans. This combined with our improved operating performance resulted in our leverage ratio being reduced to 3.87 times.”

Third Quarter Operating Highlights

 

Consolidated net sales of $868 million in the third quarter of 2017 were $92 million, or 12 percent higher than the 2016 third quarter. This increase was due to $57 million of higher prices and a more favorable product mix, and higher volume in the paper and packaging segment. Net sales in the distribution segment increased $8 million due to higher prices partially offset by lower volume. The Company’s average mill selling price of $698 per ton in the third quarter of 2017 increased by $72 per ton, or nearly 12 percent, compared to the third quarter of 2016 due to higher domestic and export containerboard prices, and higher kraft paper prices.

 

Net income of $30 million for the 2017 third quarter was $1 million lower than the 2016 third quarter. The lower earnings primarily reflect the following (all dollar amounts on a pre-tax basis):

 

·                  Inflation driven higher recycled fiber costs, salaries and wages of $12 million;

·                  $9 million of higher planned maintenance outages;

·                  Higher management incentives and reinstated employee benefits of $12 million;

·                  A total of $7 million for unplanned boiler downtime, a bad debt charge due to a customer bankruptcy in our distribution segment, and the effects of Hurricanes Harvey and Irma;

·                  A $9 million charge for the closure of the Oakland, California box plant; and

·                  Higher interest expense due to higher interest rates on term loans and interest on long-term financial obligations of $5 million.

 

These items were partially offset by $57 million of significantly higher selling prices and a better product mix, and a $4 million reduction in the fair value of the contingent consideration liability relating to the earn-out for the Victory Packaging acquisition.

 

The effective income tax rate for the 2017 third quarter was 33.3 percent compared to 28.9 percent for the 2016 third quarter.  The 2017 effective income tax rate increased due to higher state income taxes. The 2016 third quarter effective income tax rate was lower due to a favorable discrete tax adjustment reflecting higher energy tax credits.

 

Cash Flow and Working Capital

 

Cash and cash equivalents increased by $4 million during the 2017 third quarter to $11 million at September 30, 2017.  Operating activities provided $126 million during the 2017 third quarter, including seasonally improved working capital. Investing activities used $34 million for capital expenditures.  Financing activities used $88 million, including a $75 million debt prepayment and $10 million for a cash dividend payment.

 

On August 10, 2017, our Board of Directors approved a regular $0.10 per share cash dividend which was paid on October 12, 2017.

 

At September 30, 2017, the Company had approximately $437 million of working capital and $483 million of revolver borrowing capacity.

Conclusion

 

In summary, Kaplan commented, “As the year winds down, the benefits of the positive momentum related to the strong market should drive positive results in the fourth quarter and beyond. We have high expectations for 2018.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including “EBITDA”, “Adjusted EBITDA”, “Adjusted Net Income”, and “Adjusted Diluted EPS” to measure our operating performance. Management uses these measures to focus on the on-going operations, and believes it is useful to investors because they enable them to perform meaningful comparisons of past and present operating results. The Company believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to investors because they improve the comparability of the financial results between periods and provide for greater transparency to key measures used to evaluate the performance of the Company. Management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for evaluating the Company’s performance against competitors and as a primary measure for employees’ incentive programs. Reconciliations of Net Income to EBITDA, EBITDA to Adjusted EBITDA, Net Income to Adjusted Net Income, and Diluted EPS to Adjusted Diluted EPS are included in the financial schedules contained in this press release.

However, these measures should not be construed as an alternative to any other measure of performance determined in accordance with GAAP.
