Sales revenue for fourth quarter 2010 was $1.5 billion, a 23 percent increase compared to fourth quarter 2009 due to higher sales volume and increased selling prices. The higher sales volume was attributed primarily to strengthened end-use demand in packaging, durable goods, and other markets and the positive impact of growth initiatives. The increase in selling prices was in response to higher raw material and energy costs.
Operating earnings in fourth quarter 2010 were $161 million compared to an operating loss of $4 million in fourth quarter 2009. Excluding asset impairments and restructuring charges, net, in both periods, operating earnings in fourth quarter 2010 were $187 million compared with operating earnings of $173 million in fourth quarter 2009. Operating earnings increased primarily due to higher sales volume and increased capacity utilization which led to lower unit costs and higher selling prices which were mostly offset by higher raw material and energy costs.
Segment Results 4Q 2010 versus 4Q 2009
Coatings, Adhesives, Specialty Polymers and Inks – Sales revenue increased by 16 percent due to higher selling prices and higher sales volume. The higher selling prices were in response to higher raw material and energy costs. The increase in sales volume was attributed primarily to strengthened end-use demand in the packaging and transportation markets in Europe and the U.S. and the positive impact of growth initiatives. Excluding asset impairments and restructuring charges, net, in both periods, operating earnings in fourth quarter 2010 were $53 million while fourth-quarter 2009 operating earnings were $76 million. The decline in operating earnings was primarily due to higher raw material and energy costs and higher costs of growth and business development initiatives, partially offset by higher selling prices and higher sales volume.
Fibers – Sales revenue increased by 18 percent due to a favorable shift in product mix and higher sales volume. The favorable shift in product mix and higher sales volume was due to increased acetate tow sales volume attributed to customer buying patterns. Fourth-quarter 2010 operating earnings, excluding asset impairments and restructuring costs, were $78 million compared to $73 million in fourth quarter 2009. The increase was primarily due to higher sales volume and the favorable shift in product mix.
Performance Chemicals and Intermediates – Sales revenue increased by 31 percent primarily due to higher selling prices and higher sales volume. The increased selling prices were in response to higher raw material and energy costs and also attributed to strengthened demand in North America and Asia Pacific, particularly for olefin-derivative product lines. The higher sales volume was primarily due to growth in plasticizer product lines, which include the acquired Genovique Specialties plasticizer product lines. Operating earnings in fourth quarter 2010, excluding asset impairments and restructuring charges, were $51 million compared with operating earnings of $25 million in fourth quarter 2009. Operating earnings increased year over year primarily due to higher selling prices more than offsetting higher raw material and energy costs and increased sales volume.
Specialty Plastics - Sales revenue increased by 26 percent due to higher sales volume and higher selling prices. The increase in sales volume was attributed to strengthened end-use demand for specialty packaging and consumer and durable goods, and the positive impact of growth initiatives for core copolyesters and Eastman Tritan™ copolyester product lines. Selling prices increased in response to higher raw material and energy costs, particularly for paraxylene. Operating earnings in fourth quarter 2010, excluding asset impairments and restructuring charges, were $24 million compared to $9 million in fourth quarter 2009. Operating earnings increased due to the higher sales volume, increased capacity utilization which led to lower unit costs, and higher selling prices. These were partially offset by higher raw material and energy costs.
Corporate FY 2010 versus FY 2009
For full-year 2010, Eastman announced earnings from continuing operations of $5.75 per diluted share ($6.96 earnings per diluted share from continuing operations excluding the items described in the “Asset Impairments and Restructuring Charges and Debt Extinguishment Costs” section in this release). These results were negatively impacted by $0.11 per share due to non-deductibility of early distributions under the executive deferred compensation plan as described in the “Income Taxes” paragraph in this release. Full-year 2009 earnings from operations were $2.09 per diluted share ($3.83 earnings per diluted share from continuing operations excluding the items described in the “Asset Impairments and Restructuring Charges and Debt Extinguishment Costs” section in this release). For reconciliations to reported company and segment earnings, see Tables 3 and 4 in the accompanying financial tables. For description of discontinued operations, see the “Discontinued Operations” paragraph in this release.
Eastman's full-year 2010 sales revenue was $5.8 billion, an increase of 33 percent year-over-year. The increase was primarily due to higher sales volume and increased selling prices. The higher sales volume was attributed primarily to strengthened end-use demand in packaging, durable goods, and other markets and the positive impact of growth initiatives. Selling prices increased in response to higher raw material and energy costs.
Operating earnings for full-year 2010 were $862 million compared to operating earnings of $345 million for full-year 2009. Excluding asset impairments and restructuring charges, net, in both periods, full-year 2010 operating earnings were $891 million and full-year 2009 operating earnings were $541 million. Operating earnings increased primarily due to higher sales volume and increased capacity utilization which led to lower unit costs and higher selling prices which more than offset higher raw material and energy costs.
Segment Results FY 2010 versus FY 2009
Coatings, Adhesives, Specialty Polymers and Inks – Sales revenue increased by 29 percent primarily due to higher sales volume and higher selling prices. The increase in sales volume was attributed primarily to strengthened end-use demand in the packaging and transportation markets in Europe and the U.S. and the positive impact of growth initiatives. The higher selling prices were in response to higher raw material and energy costs, particularly for propane. Excluding asset impairments and restructuring charges, net, in both periods, 2010 operating earnings were $299 million and 2009 operating earnings were $224 million. Operating earnings increased primarily due to higher sales volume, increased capacity utilization which led to lower unit costs, and higher selling prices, which more than offset higher raw material and energy costs.
Fibers – Sales revenue increased by 11 percent due to higher sales volume and a favorable shift in product mix. The higher sales volume and favorable shift in product mix were due to higher sales volume of acetate tow and of acetate yarn, both attributed to strengthened demand due to the global economic recovery. Excluding asset impairments and restructuring charges, net, in both periods, 2010 operating earnings were $326 million, compared with 2009 operating earnings of $296 million. The increase was due to higher sales volume, improved acetyl stream capacity utilization, and the favorable shift in product mix.
Performance Chemicals and Intermediates – Sales revenue increased by 49 percent due to higher sales volume and higher selling prices. The higher sales volume was primarily due to growth in plasticizer product lines, which include the acquired Genovique Specialties plasticizer product lines, and also attributed to strengthened end-market demand due to the global economic recovery. The higher selling prices were in response to higher raw material and energy costs. Operating earnings, excluding asset impairments and restructuring charges, net, in both periods, were $231 million in 2010 compared to $47 million in 2009. Operating earnings increased primarily due to higher selling prices more than offsetting higher raw material and energy costs, higher sales volume, and increased capacity utilization which led to lower unit costs.
Specialty Plastics – Sales revenue increased by 39 percent primarily due to higher sales volume. The higher sales volume was attributed to strengthened end-use demand across all markets due to the global economic recovery and the positive impact of growth initiatives for core copolyesters and the Tritan™ copolyester product lines. Excluding asset impairments and restructuring charges, net, in both periods, operating earnings were $93 million in 2010 compared to $13 million in 2009. The increase in operating earnings was primarily due to higher sales volume and increased capacity utilization which led to lower unit costs.
Cash Flow
Eastman generated $575 million in cash from operating activities in 2010. Excluding the $200 million impact of the adoption of amended accounting guidance for transfers of financial assets applied to the company’s accounts receivable securitization program in the first quarter, Eastman generated $775 million in cash from operations compared to $758 million in 2009. Excluding the impact of the adoption of amended accounting guidance, the company generated free cash flow of $405 million in 2010 which reflected solid net earnings, disciplined working capital management, and lower capital expenditures. (Free cash flow is defined as cash from operating activities less capital expenditures and dividends.) During 2010, share repurchases totaled $280 million of which $212 million was for repurchases in the fourth quarter. See Table 5A for reconciliation of cash provided by operating activities to free cash flow.
Income Taxes
During fourth quarter 2010, the provision for income taxes from continuing operations included $8 million ($0.11 earnings per diluted share from continuing operations) for the nondeductible distribution under the executive deferred compensation plan of previously earned compensation as a result of certain participants electing early withdrawal.
Discontinued Operations
The Company completed the sale of the polyethylene terephthalate (“PET”) business, related assets at the Columbia, South Carolina, site, and technology of its Performance Polymers segment on January 31, 2011. The PET business, assets, and technology sold were substantially all of the Performance Polymers segment. Performance Polymers segment operating results are presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented and are therefore not included in results from continuing operations under generally accepted accounting principles.
Asset Impairments and Restructuring Charges and Debt Extinguishment Costs
2010 operating earnings included $29 million in asset impairments and restructuring charges ($26 million in fourth quarter), primarily consisting of restructuring charges of $18 million, mostly for severance and pension curtailment charges in conjunction with the sale of the Performance Polymers PET business, and an intangible asset impairment charge of $8 million resulting from an environmental regulatory change during the fourth quarter reducing the fair value of air emission credits remaining from the previously discontinued Beaumont, Texas, gasification project. Full-year 2009 results included asset impairments and restructuring charges, net, of $196 million ($177 million in fourth quarter), primarily for the discontinued Beaumont, Texas, industrial gasification project.
In the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company completed a public debt restructuring comprised of the sale of $500 million aggregate principal amount of new five and ten year debt securities and the early repayment of $500 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding debt securities. The debt restructuring allowed the Company to favorably adjust its debt maturities and reduce future interest costs on its long-term debt. The early repayment of debt resulted in the recognition of a charge of $115 million, net, in fourth quarter 2010.
Outlook
Commenting on the outlook for first quarter and full year 2011, Rogers said: “We begin 2011 with a strengthening global economy and expected benefits from the combination of the restart of an olefin cracking unit, lower interest expense, a full year of results from our Genovique Specialties acquisition, our acetate tow expansion in Korea, and strong market adoption of our Tritan™ copolyester products. We also face headwinds from expected volatility in raw material and energy costs, higher pension expense, and costs related to growth projects. As a result, we expect first-quarter 2011 earnings from continuing operations to be between $1.75 and $1.85 per share. In addition, we expect earnings per share from continuing operations in 2011 to be slightly more than 10 percent above 2010 earnings from continuing operations.” Gains from the sales of assets are excluded from earnings per share projections.

(1) |
Twelve months 2010 cash from operating activities reflected the adoption of amended accounting guidance for transfers of financial assets which resulted in $200 million of receivables, which were previously accounted for as sold and removed from the balance sheet when transferred under the accounts receivable securitization program, being included on the first quarter balance sheet as trade receivables, net. This increase in receivables reduced cash from operations by $200 million in first quarter 2010. |
