TREDEGAR REPORTS SECOND-QUARTER 2014 RESULTS
• | Operating profit from ongoing operations for Film Products of $15.0 million was $3.8 million lower than the second quarter of 2013 |
• | Operating profit from ongoing operations for Bonnell Aluminum of $8.1 million was $3.7 million higher than the second quarter of 2013 |
RICHMOND, VA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--August 7, 2014--Tredegar Corporation (NYSE:TG, also the “Company” or “Tredegar”) today reported second-quarter financial results for the period ended June 30, 2014.
Second-Quarter Financial Results Highlights
• | Net income from continuing operations was $3.8 million, or 11 cents per share |
• | Net income from ongoing operations, which excludes special items, was $11.1 million, or 34 cents per share |
Further details regarding the special items that reconcile net income from ongoing operations to net income from continuing operations are provided in the financial tables to this press release.
Nancy M. Taylor, Tredegar’s president and chief executive officer, said: “Bonnell Aluminum had a strong performance this quarter, with modest growth in its nonresidential sector and favorable mix. We are very pleased with Bonnell’s operational performance so far this year. In Film Products, customer inventory corrections in surface protection films and the previously announced ramp down of certain babycare elastic laminate volume in North America impacted volumes in the second quarter. Pricing pressures and production inefficiencies continue to be a significant drag on our flexible packaging performance in Brazil. We expect these dynamics to continue for the balance of the year.”
Ms. Taylor continued, “Throughout the year we have characterized 2014 as a building year for Tredegar, with volume growth heavily reliant on the timely ramp up of new capacity. While we are making headway with many of our new product, key customer and emerging market growth initiatives, volume for Film Products in the second half of the year will fall short of our performance targets, primarily due to the delay of the start up of the new flexible packaging line in Brazil. The ramp-up of this line is expected to begin in the fourth quarter. With this delay, we are revising our view of the 2014 volume target in Film Products and expect volume to be approximately 7-10% below 2013 volume. Even with this near-term volume miss, we remain confident that Tredegar is well positioned for future growth in attractive markets.”

Second-Quarter Results Versus Prior Year Second Quarter
Net sales (sales less freight) in the second quarter of 2014 decreased in comparison to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to lower volumes, partially offset by an increase in average selling prices and the favorable impact of the change in the U.S. dollar value of currencies for operations outside the U.S. Lower volumes had an unfavorable impact of approximately $15.4 million on net sales in the second quarter of 2014 compared to the second quarter of 2013. Declining sales of certain babycare elastic laminate films sold in North America and lower sales volumes for surface protection, flexible packaging and polyethylene overwrap films were
--more--
partially offset by higher volumes for other personal care products. Lower volumes in surface protection films were primarily related to customer inventory corrections in the current year and a minor loss of market share in lower-tier film due to competitive pricing. The estimated change in average selling prices had a favorable impact on net sales of approximately $2.0 million. Higher average selling prices due to the favorable impact of the contractual pass-through of certain costs, primarily an increase in average resin prices, were partially offset by competitive pricing pressures in flexible packaging films and personal care materials. The change in the U.S. dollar value of currencies for operations outside the U.S. had a favorable impact on second-quarter net sales of approximately $1.1 million.
Operating profit from ongoing operations in the second quarter of 2014 decreased in comparison to the second quarter of 2013. Lower sales volumes had an estimated unfavorable impact on operating profit from ongoing operations of approximately $5.7 million, which included a decrease of approximately $2.2 million related to declining volumes for certain babycare elastic laminate films sold in North America. Competitive pricing pressures, primarily in flexible packaging films, had an estimated unfavorable impact on operating profit from ongoing operations of approximately $0.3 million in the current year. Improved operational performance, primarily in personal care materials and surface protection films, which was partially offset by higher manufacturing expenses in flexible packaging films, increased operating profit from ongoing operations by approximately $0.2 million.
The change in the dollar value of currencies for operations outside the U.S. had a favorable impact on operating profit from ongoing operations of approximately $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in the prior year. The estimated impact on operating profit from ongoing operations of the quarterly lag in the pass-through of average resin costs was approximately a negative $0.1 million in the second quarter of 2013 (insignificant in the second quarter of 2014).
Year-To-Date Results Versus Prior Year-To-Date
Net sales in the first six months of 2014 decreased in comparison to the same period in the prior year as lower volumes were partially offset by an increase in average selling prices and the favorable impact of the change in the U.S. dollar value of currencies for operations outside the U.S. Lower volumes had an unfavorable impact of approximately $19.2 million on net sales in the first six months of 2014 compared to the first six months of 2013. Declining sales of certain babycare elastic laminate films sold in North America and reduced sales volumes for polyethylene overwrap, flexible packaging and surface protection films were partially offset by higher volumes for other personal care products. Lower volumes in surface protection films were primarily related to customer inventory corrections in the current year and a minor loss of market share in lower-tier film due to competitive pricing. The estimated change in average selling prices had a favorable impact on net sales of approximately $0.7 million. Higher average selling prices due to the favorable impact of the contractual pass-through of certain costs, primarily an increase in average resin prices, were partially offset by competitive pricing pressures in flexible packaging films and personal care materials. The change in the U.S. dollar value of currencies for operations outside the U.S. had a favorable impact on current year net sales of approximately $1.0 million.
Operating profit from ongoing operations in the first six months of 2014 decreased in comparison to the first six months of 2013. Lower sales volumes had an estimated unfavorable impact on operating profit from ongoing operations of approximately $6.1 million, which included a decrease of approximately $3.4 million related to declining volumes for certain babycare elastic laminate films sold in North America. Competitive pricing pressures, primarily in flexible packaging films, had an estimated unfavorable impact on operating profit from ongoing operations of approximately $2.5 million in the current year. Improved operational performance, primarily in personal care materials and surface protection films, which was partially offset by higher manufacturing expenses in flexible packaging films, increased operating profit from ongoing operations by approximately $0.6 million.
The change in the dollar value of currencies for operations outside the U.S. had a favorable impact on operating profit from ongoing operations of approximately $3.4 million in the first six months of 2014 compared to the same period in the prior year. The estimated impact on operating profit from ongoing operations of the quarterly lag in the pass-through of average resin costs was approximately negative $0.3 million in the first six months of 2014 and negative $0.6 million in the first six months of 2013.
Capital expenditures in Film Products were $18.8 million in the first six months of 2014 compared to $30.0 million in the first six months of 2013. Capital expenditures for the first six months of 2014 and 2013 include
--more--
approximately $10.6 million and $19.0 million, respectively, for a previously announced project that will expand capacity at the Company’s manufacturing facility in Cabo de Santo Agostinho, Brazil. The ramp-up of additional capacity from this project is expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2014. Film Products currently estimates that capital expenditures in 2014 will be approximately $45 million, including approximately $15 million for routine capital expenditures required to support operations. Depreciation expense was $14.1 million in the first six months of 2014 and $15.9 million in the first six months of 2013, and is projected to be approximately $28 million in 2014. Amortization expense was $1.9 million in the first six months of 2014 and $2.6 million in the first six months of 2013, and is projected to be approximately $4 million in 2014.

Second-Quarter Results Versus Prior Year Second Quarter
Net sales in the second quarter of 2014 increased in comparison to the second quarter of 2013 primarily due to higher sales volumes and an increase in average prices. Higher sales volumes had a favorable impact of approximately $4.0 million in the second quarter of 2014. The favorable change in average selling prices can be attributed to various factors, including inflationary price increases, higher average aluminum costs and favorable changes in product mix due to a higher percentage of painted and anodized finished products as well as an increase in the sales of fabricated components.
Operating profit from ongoing operations increased by $3.7 million in the second quarter of 2014 compared to the second quarter of 2013 primarily as a result of the favorable impact of manufacturing efficiencies, reduced selling, general and administrative expenses, higher sales volumes and a more favorable product mix. Improved margins from manufacturing efficiencies and reduced selling, general and administrative expenses increased operating profit from ongoing operations by approximately $1.9 million. Operating profit from ongoing operations in the prior year was impacted by a one-time, construction-related expense of approximately $0.3 million associated with the automotive press project at the Company’s manufacturing facility in Newnan, Georgia. Higher sales volumes and a more favorable product mix increased operating profit from ongoing operations by approximately $0.8 million.
Year-To-Date Results Versus Prior Year-To-Date
Net sales in the first six months of 2014 increased in comparison to the first six months of 2013 primarily due to higher sales volumes. Higher sales volumes had a favorable impact of approximately $5.8 million in the first six months of 2014. In addition to higher sales volumes, there was a favorable change in average selling prices that can be attributed to inflationary price increases and a favorable change in product mix, partially offset by lower average aluminum prices. Favorable changes in product mix can be attributed to a higher percentage of painted and anodized finished products as well as an increase in the sales of fabricated components.
Operating profit from ongoing operations increased by $3.9 million in the first six months of 2014 compared to the first six months of 2013 primarily as a result of the favorable impact of manufacturing efficiencies and reduced selling, general and administrative expenses. Excluding the impact of unanticipated costs as a result of adverse winter weather conditions in the first quarter of 2014, improved margins from manufacturing efficiencies and reduced selling, general and administrative expenses increased operating profit from ongoing operations by approximately $2.9 million. In addition, operating profit from ongoing operations in the prior year was impacted by a one-time, construction-related expense of approximately $0.3 million associated with the automotive press project
--more--
at the Company’s manufacturing facility in Newnan, Georgia. Additional utility, distribution and manufacturing costs due to adverse winter weather conditions in the first quarter of 2014 had an estimated unfavorable impact on operating profit from ongoing operations of approximately $1.2 million. Higher sales volumes and improved product mix primarily account for the remaining increase in current year operating profit from ongoing operations.
Capital expenditures for Bonnell Aluminum were $4.0 million in the first six months of 2014 compared to $4.6 million in the first six months of 2013. Capital expenditures are projected to be approximately $9 million in 2014, which includes approximately $5 million for routine capital expenditures required to support operations. Depreciation expense was $4.1 million in the first six months of 2014 compared to $3.7 million in the first six months of 2013, and is projected to be approximately $8.5 million in 2014. Amortization expense was $0.9 million in the first six months of 2014 and $0.9 million in the first six months of 2013, and is projected to be approximately $1.6 million in 2014.
Corporate Expenses, Interest and Taxes
Pension expense was $3.9 million in the first six months of 2014, a favorable change of $2.8 million from the first six months of 2013. Most of the impact on earnings from lower pension expense is reflected in “Corporate expenses, net” in the Net Sales and Operating Profit by Segment table. Pension expense is projected to be $7.3 million in 2014. Corporate expenses, net decreased in 2014 versus 2013 primarily due to the reduction in pension expense noted above and lower stock-based employee benefit accruals, partially offset by the timing of certain non-recurring corporate expenditures. In 2014, corporate expenses, net included costs of $0.9 million related to responding to a Schedule 13D filed with the SEC by certain shareholders.
Interest expense was $1.2 million in the first six months of 2014 in comparison to $1.4 million in the first six months of 2013.
The effective tax rate used to compute income taxes for income from continuing operations was 35.6% in the first six months of 2014 compared to 32.6% in the first six months of 2013. Income taxes from continuing operations in the first six months of 2014 was relatively consistent with the federal statutory rate as a result of various mitigating factors, while income taxes from continuing operations in the first six months of 2013 primarily reflect the benefit of foreign tax incentives and the timing of a research and development tax credit, partially offset by the impact of differences in state tax rates. Significant differences between the estimated effective tax rate for income from continuing operations and the U.S. federal statutory rate for 2014 and 2013 will be provided in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2014.
CAPITAL STRUCTURE
Net debt (debt in excess of cash and cash equivalents) was $92.8 million at June 30, 2014, compared with $86.4 million at December 31, 2013.

Notes to the Financial Tables
(In Millions, Except Per Share Data)
(Unaudited)
(a) Tredegar’s presentation of net income and earnings per share from ongoing operations are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the after-tax effects of gains or losses associated with plant shutdowns, asset impairments and restructurings, gains or losses from the sale of assets and other items, goodwill impairment charges and operating results and gains or losses on sale for businesses divested that are included in discontinued operations, which have been presented separately and removed from net income (loss) and diluted earnings (loss) per share as reported under GAAP. Net income and earnings per share from ongoing operations are used by management to gauge the operating performance of Tredegar’s ongoing operations. They are not intended to represent the stand-alone results for Tredegar’s ongoing operations under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations as defined by GAAP. They exclude items that we believe do not relate to Tredegar’s ongoing operations. A reconciliation is shown below:

(c) | On February 12, 2008, Tredegar sold its aluminum extrusions business in Canada for a purchase price of approximately $25 million. All historical results for this business were previously reported in discontinued operations. Accruals were made for indemnifications under the purchase agreement related to environmental matters of $8.3 million ($8.3 million after tax) in the second quarter of 2013 and $13.5 million ($13.5 million after tax) in the first six months of 2013 (none in 2014). |
(d) Comprehensive income (loss), defined as net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss), was income of $9.7 million in the second quarter of 2014 and a loss of $10.2 million for the second quarter of 2013 and income of $25.2 million in the first six months of 2014 and a loss of $3.2 million in the first six months of 2013. Other comprehensive income (loss) includes changes in foreign currency translation adjustments, unrealized gains and losses on derivative financial instruments and prior service costs and net gains or losses from pension and other post-retirement benefit plans arising during the period and the related amortization of these prior service costs and net gains or losses recorded net of deferred taxes directly in shareholders’ equity.

(e) The unrealized gain (loss) on the Company’s investment in kaleo, Inc. (“kaléo”), formerly known as Intelliject, Inc., was a loss of $1.1 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2014 and a gain of $2.1 million and $3.2 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2013, respectively. The unrealized loss in 2014 can be primarily attributed to adjustments in the timing of cash flows associated with achieving product development and commercialization milestones. The unrealized gain in 2013 was primarily related to adjustments in the fair value for the passage of time as anticipated cash flows associated with achieving product development and commercialization milestones were discounted at 55% for their high degree of risk.
(f) A pre-tax gain of $1.2 million (included in “Other income (expense), net” in the condensed consolidated statement of income) was realized on the sale of a portion of its investment property in Alleghany and Bath County, Virginia in the second quarter of 2014. An unrealized loss on the Company’s investment property in Alleghany and Bath Counties, Virginia (included in “Other income (expense), net” in the condensed consolidated statement of income) of $1.0 million was recorded in the second quarter of 2013 as a result of a reduction in the estimated fair value that was not expected to be temporary.
(g) | A pretax charge of $0.3 million and $0.6 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2014, respectively, related to unrealized losses for the Company’s investment in the Harbinger Capital Partners Special Situations Fund, L.P. was recorded as a result of a reduction in the value of the Company’s investment that is not expected to be temporary. The impairment charge is included in “Other income (expense), net” in the condensed consolidated statements of income and in “Corporate expenses, net” in the statement of net sales and operating profit by segment. |
(h) Net debt is calculated as follows:
June 30, | December 31, | |||||||
2014 | 2013 | |||||||
Debt | $ | 136.8 | $ | 139.0 | ||||
Less: Cash and cash equivalents | 44.0 | 52.6 | ||||||
Net debt | $ | 92.8 | $ | 86.4 | ||||
Net debt is not intended to represent total debt as defined by GAAP. Net debt is utilized by management in evaluating the Company’s financial leverage and equity valuation, and management believes that investors also may find net debt to be helpful for the same purposes.
