NEW YORK, January 31—Minerals Technologies Inc. (NYSE: MTX) (“MTI” or “the Company”) today reported diluted earnings per share of $1.17,
excluding special items, for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2018, compared with earnings per share of $1.10 in the prior year. Reported diluted earnings per share were $1.22 compared with $2.12 in the prior year, which included an income
tax benefit of $1.32 per share from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act legislation.
For the full year 2018, the Company reported earnings per share of $4.84, excluding special items, compared with earnings per share of $4.59 in
the prior year. Reported earnings per share were $4.75 for the full year 2018.
“We are pleased with MTI’s strong performance across our businesses
in the fourth quarter and for the full year 2018,” said Douglas T. Dietrich, Chief Executive Officer. “In 2018, we advanced our growth strategies through the continued penetration of Metalcasting and Paper PCC in Asia, the commercialization of 35 new valued-added products and the successful integration of Sivomatic. Our team’s deep commitment to operational excellence and continuous improvement activities along with
pricing actions mitigated the impact of inflationary costs during the year. The momentum we’ve built in 2018, combined with our solid balance sheet, positions us well for continued profitable growth and value creation in 2019.”
FOURTH QUARTER 2018
Worldwide net sales increased 4 percent to $447.5 million. Foreign
exchange had an unfavorable impact on sales of approximately $6.7 million or 1 percentage point of growth. Operating income, as reported, was $62.3 million and represented 13.9 percent of sales. Operating income, excluding special items, increased
2 percent to $64.1 million and represented 14.3 percent of sales. In the fourth quarter, the Company’s pricing actions and improved business performance more than
offset inflationary costs of approximately $12 million.
Segment Information
Performance Materials and Specialty Minerals
Sales in the Minerals businesses, which include the Performance Materials and Specialty Minerals segments, grew 3 percent in the fourth quarter
to $349.3 million. Operating income for the Minerals businesses was $50.4 million and represented 14.4 percent of sales. Operating income, excluding special items, was $51.1 million and represented 14.6 percent of sales.
Performance Materials segment sales
increased 6 percent to $206.8 million. Metalcasting sales rose 6 percent, primarily driven by higher volumes of greensand bonds in North America and Asia. Household, Personal Care & Specialty Products sales increased 50 percent due to the
acquisition of Sivomatic and the continued strong growth of our pet care products in North America and China. This growth was partially offset by lower sales in Building Materials resulting from fewer large projects and a decrease in Basic Minerals
due to the exit of the bulk chromite business last year. Operating income for the segment increased 4 percent to $29.2 million due to higher pricing, volume and operating efficiencies, partially offset by increased raw material, logistics and
energy costs. The Performance Materials segment provides a wide range of bentonite-based and synthetic materials for industrial and consumer
markets and for non-residential construction, environmental remediation and infrastructure projects worldwide.
Specialty Minerals segment sales, which
consist of the Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC) and Processed Minerals product lines, decreased 1 percent to $142.5 million. Operating income, excluding special items, decreased to $21.9 million, driven by previously announced customer paper
machine shutdowns in North America in late 2017 and early 2018, and higher logistics and energy costs. Contractual selling price increases in PCC and other price increases were implemented in the second half of 2018 and will continue into 2019 to partially offset rising costs.
Worldwide sales of PCC, which is used mainly in the manufacturing processes of the paper industry, decreased 1 percent to $109.6 million,
primarily due to reduced sales in North America following the paper machine closures.
Sales of Processed Minerals products were flat at $32.9 million. Processed Minerals products are used in the building materials, polymers,
ceramics, consumer products, paints and coatings, glass and other manufacturing industries.
Refractories and Energy Services
Sales in the Service businesses, which include the Refractories and Energy Services segments, grew 6 percent in the fourth quarter to $98.2
million. Operating income for the Service businesses rose 4 percent to $12.0 million and represented 12.2 percent of sales. Operating income, excluding special items, increased 6 percent to $13.1 million and was 13.3 percent of sales.
Refractories segment sales increased 9
percent to $77.9 million, driven by higher volumes of refractory products and increased pricing to offset higher raw material costs. The Refractories segment
operating income increased 6 percent to $10.8 million and was 13.9 percent of sales. The Refractories segment provides products and services primarily to the worldwide steel industry.
Energy Services segment sales decreased 4
percent to $20.3 million, primarily driven by lower filtration activity. Operating income decreased to $1.2 million and was 5.9 percent of sales. Excluding special items, operating income increased 5 percent to $2.3 million and represented 11.3
percent of sales. Energy Services offers a range of patented technologies, products and services for off-shore filtration and well testing to the worldwide oil and gas industry.
FULL YEAR 2018
Worldwide net sales increased 8 percent to $1.808 billion. Foreign exchange had a favorable impact on sales of approximately $13 million or 1

Performance Materials segment sales
increased 13 percent to $828.1 million. Metalcasting sales rose 12 percent due to higher volumes of greensand bonds in North America and Asia. Household, Personal Care & Specialty Products sales increased 47 percent, primarily driven by higher
pet care revenue, including the acquisition of Sivomatic, and increased European fabric care sales. Environmental Products sales rose 19 percent due to several large projects. This growth was partially offset by lower sales in Building Materials
resulting from fewer large projects and a decrease in Basic Minerals due to the exit of the bulk chromite business last year. Operating income for the segment decreased to $116.8 million and represented 14.1 percent of sales, primarily due to
higher raw material, logistics and energy costs, partially offset by increased selling prices and higher volume. Excluding special items, operating income was $117.3 million and represented 14.2 percent of sales.
Specialty Minerals segment sales, which
consist of the Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC) and Processed Minerals product lines, increased 1 percent to $589.3 million. Operating income excluding special items decreased 5 percent to $96.1 million and was 16.3 percent of sales million
primarily due to previously announced paper machine shutdowns in North America, and higher logistics and energy costs.
Worldwide sales of PCC were up slightly to $445.4 million as higher sales in Asia were partially offset by reduced sales in North America due to
customer paper machine closures in late 2017 and early 2018.
Sales of Processed Minerals products rose 2 percent to $143.9 million. Ground Calcium Carbonate sales grew 4 percent, driven by higher volumes
in the construction market, while talc sales decreased 2 percent.

percent to $311.9 million, driven by higher volumes of refractory products and
from increased pricing to offset higher raw material costs. The Refractories segment operating income increased 14 percent to $45.4 million and was 14.6 percent of sales.
Energy Services segment sales increased 2
percent to $78.3 million, primarily driven by higher filtration activity in the Gulf of Mexico and the North Sea. Operating income, excluding special items,
decreased 7 percent to to $6.3 million and was 8.0 percent of sales, due to sales mix in the Gulf of Mexico.

To supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the following is a presentation of the Company's
non-GAAP earnings per share, excluding special items, for the quarterly periods ended December 31, 2018, September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 and the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 and a reconciliation to reported earnings per
share for such periods. The Company's management believes these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance as inclusion of such special items are not indicative of the ongoing operating results
and thereby affect the comparability of results between periods. The Company feels inclusion of these non-GAAP measures also provides consistency in its financial reporting and facilitates investors' understanding of historic operating
trends.

On December 22, 2017, tax reform legislation was signed into law, encompassing a broad range of tax reform proposals, including a reduction of
U.S. corporate tax rates from 35% to 21%, transitioning U.S. international taxation from a worldwide tax system to a territorial tax system and imposing a repatriation tax that is payable over eight years on deemed repatriated accumulated
earnings of foreign subsidiaries. As required under ASC 740, Income Taxes, the Company is required to recognize the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on deferred tax positions and the retroactive effects of changes in tax laws in
the period in which the new legislation is enacted. As such, the Company recorded a provisional $47 million income tax benefit in the fourth quarter of 2017, comprised of a tax benefit primarily from the lower U.S. tax rate, resulting in a
reduction of deferred tax liabilities of $82 million and a $35 million charge related to the repatriation of accumulated foreign earnings. Such provisional amounts were based on reasonable estimates and subject to to adjustment during the
measurement period. Accordingly, in the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company recorded a $3.7 million reduction related to the repatriation of accumulated foreign earnings.

Free cash flow is defined as cash flow from continuing operations less capital expenditures. The following is a presentation of the Company's
non-GAAP free cash flow for the quarterly periods ended December 31, 2018, September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 and the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 and a reconciliation to cash flow from operations for such periods. The
Company's management believes this non-GAAP measure provides meaningful supplemental information as management uses this measure to evaluate the Company's ability to maintain capital assets, satisfy current and future obligations,
repurchase stock, pay dividends and fund future business opportunities. Free cash flow is not a measure of cash available for discretionary expenditures since the Company has certain non-discretionary obligations such as debt service that
are not deducted from the measure. The Company's definition of free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

To supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the following is a presentation of the Company's
non-GAAP operating income, excluding special items (set forth in the above table), for the quarterly periods ended December 31, 2018, September 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, and the twelve month periods ended December 31, 2018 and
December 31, 2017 constituting a reconciliation to GAAP operating income set forth above. The Company's management believe these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance as inclusion of such
special items are not indicative of ongoing operating results and thereby affect the comparability of results between periods. The Company feels inclusion of these non-GAAP measures also provides consistency in its financial reporting and
facilitates investors' understanding of historic operating trends.
