TEL AVIV, Israel--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ICL (NYSE: ICL) (TASE: ICL), a leading global specialty minerals company, today reported its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021. Consolidated sales of $1,790 million were up 49% year-over-year versus $1,204 million. Operating income of $321 million was up more than 220% and broke an eight-year record, while adjusted operating income of $315 million was up nearly 200%. Net income of $225 million was up 317%, while adjusted net income of $215 million was up 271%. Adjusted EBITDA of $421 million was up 86% over $226 million.
ICL’s quarterly results were once again driven by its specialties businesses, and the company also benefitted from continued commodity upside. The strong performance was supported by increased demand and higher prices in most markets, and despite higher overall costs and global supply chain challenges.
“ICL delivered outstanding results, including the fourth consecutive quarter of bottom-line improvement. All four of our businesses contributed, with each of them reporting double-digit growth in sales, operating profit and EBITDA, driven by our strengthening specialties product portfolio and commodity tail winds. While our Innovative Ag Solutions division delivered double-digit organic growth, our recent Brazilian acquisitions helped balance the traditional seasonality of this business and drove a nearly 125% year-over-year improvement in total IAS sales and an increase in EBITDA of more than 300%,” said Raviv Zoller, president and CEO of ICL.
Due to another quarter of strong results and continuing improvements in market conditions, ICL is raising its expectations for full year adjusted EBITDA to a range of $1,450 million to $1,500 million. (1a)

Highlights

- Bromine-based flame retardants: Continued higher demand for consumer electronics and automotive components drove higher sales.
- Clear brine fluids: Sales benefitted from higher demand, as the continued rise in oil prices resulted in renewed oil and gas drilling activities.
- Phosphorus-based flame retardants: Sales improved, due to strong demand from the construction industry and as Chinese producers were negatively impacted by continued environmental restrictions.
- Specialty minerals: Demand from the dietary supplements and pharmaceutical end-markets remained strong and helped drive results.

- Commodity market prices were higher in the third quarter, as were raw materials prices and freight rates.
Highlights
-
Phosphate salts: Higher sales volumes, for both food grade phosphates and industrial salts, drove significant growth.
- Food phosphates: Sales increased notably and were supported by higher volume in North America and higher prices globally, as the company continued to benefit from its global footprint.
- Industrial salts: Sales and pricing benefitted from higher demand in most regions and industries, including the institutional cleaning end-market.
- White phosphoric acid: Significantly higher sales were driven by higher volumes in all regions, especially South America, China, and Europe, as prices also increased in all regions.
- Dairy protein: Sales declined, due to a reduction in demand for organic products for infants in China, which was only partially offset by increased sales of other products.
- Phosphate fertilizers: Sales and profits responded to tight supply and healthy demand, partially offset by increases in sulfur and other raw material costs.

- Sales of $387 million were up $214 million or 124%.
- Segment profit of $46 million was up $40 million or 667%.
- EBITDA of $55 million was up $42 million or 323%.
- Both Brazilian acquisitions, completed in the first half of 2021, contributed to significant year-over-year growth in the third quarter and helped to balance seasonality.
- Positive momentum continued, due to higher crop prices.
Highlights
- Specialty agriculture: Solid sales growth – due to higher volumes of straights, liquid and controlled-release fertilizers – however, raw material cost inflation and logistics challenges continued.
- Turf and ornamental: Sales trends remained positive, with higher volumes and pricing delivering global growth.
- Brazil: Sales were up both organically and including the newly acquired Plant Nutrition business from Compass Minerals (currently named ICL America do Sul), which performed well.
Financial Items
Financing Expenses
Net financing expenses for the third quarter of 2021 were $34 million, up versus $29 million in the same quarter of last year, mainly due to currency impact.
Tax Expenses
Tax expenses in the third quarter of 2021 were $45 million, reflecting an effective tax rate of 16%, versus $14 million and 19% in the prior year. The Company’s relatively low effective tax rate in the current quarter was mainly due to higher profit coming from lower effective tax jurisdictions, as well as realization of previous years' tax losses.

Guidance
(1a) The company only provides guidance on a non-GAAP basis. The company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) to GAAP net income (loss), due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, in particular because special items such as restructuring, litigation and other matters, used to calculate projected net income (loss) vary dramatically based on actual events, the company is not able to forecast on a GAAP basis with reasonable certainty all deductions needed in order to provide a GAAP calculation of projected net income (loss) at this time. The amount of these deductions may be material and, therefore, could result in projected GAAP net income (loss) being materially less than projected adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP). The guidance speaks only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this news release or to reflect actual outcomes, unless required by law.
Non-GAAP Statement
The company discloses in this quarterly announcement non-IFRS financial measures titled adjusted operating income, adjusted net income attributable to the company’s shareholders, diluted adjusted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA. The management uses adjusted operating income, adjusted net income attributable to the company’s shareholders, diluted adjusted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period. The company calculates adjusted operating income by adjusting operating income to add certain items, as set forth in the reconciliation table under adjustments to reported operating and net income (non-GAAP). Certain of these items may recur. The company calculates adjusted net income attributable to the company’s shareholders by adjusting net income attributable to the company’s shareholders to add certain items, as set forth in the reconciliation table under adjustments to reported operating and net income (non-GAAP), excluding the total tax impact of such adjustments. The company calculates diluted adjusted earnings per share by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted-average number of diluted ordinary shares outstanding. The company calculates adjusted EBITDA by adding back to the net income attributable to the company’s shareholders the depreciation and amortization, financing expenses, net, taxes on income and the items presented in the reconciliation table under consolidated adjusted EBITDA and diluted adjusted earnings per share for the periods of activity (non-GAAP), which were adjusted for in calculating the adjusted operating income and adjusted net income attributable to the company’s shareholders. Other companies may calculate similarly titled non‑IFRS financial measures differently than the company.
You should not view adjusted operating income, adjusted net income attributable to the company’s shareholders, diluted adjusted earnings per share or adjusted EBITDA as a substitute for operating income or net income attributable to the company’s shareholders determined in accordance with IFRS, and you should note that the definitions of adjusted operating income, adjusted net income attributable to the company’s shareholders, diluted adjusted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA may differ from those used by other companies. Additionally, other companies may use other measures to evaluate their performance, which may reduce the usefulness of ICL’s non-IFRS financial measures as tools for comparison. However, the company believes adjusted operating income, adjusted net income attributable to the company’s shareholders, diluted adjusted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain items management believes are not indicative of ongoing operations. Management uses these non-IFRS measures to evaluate the company's business strategies and management's performance. The company believes these non‑IFRS measures provide useful information to investors because they improve the comparability of financial results between periods and provide for greater transparency of key measures used to evaluate performance.
The company presents a discussion in the period-to-period comparisons of the primary drivers of changes in the results of operations. This discussion is based in part on management’s best estimates of the impact of the main trends on its businesses. The company has based the following discussion on its financial statements. You should read such discussion together with the financial statements.

1) For 2021, reflects a capital gain related to the divestment of the Zhapu site (China) from the Industrial Products segment, which was offset by an earnout adjustment relating to prior years' divestment, as well as transaction costs relating to the acquisitions in Brazil. 2) For 2021, reflects a disposal of an initial investment that will not materialize in Spain and an increase in restoration costs, which was offset by a reversal of impairment due to the strengthening of phosphate prices, both in Rotem Amfert Israel. For 2020, reflects an impairment and write-off of certain assets in Rotem Amfert Israel, following low phosphate prices and the discontinuation of the unprofitable production and sale of phosphate rock activity, which also led to an increase in the provision for asset retirement obligation (ARO) and in facility restoration costs. In addition, it reflects an impairment of assets and an increase in closure costs resulting from closure of the Sallent site (Vilafruns) in Spain. 3) For 2021, reflects a reversal of a VAT provision following a court ruling in Brazil, less reimbursement of arbitration costs related to the Ethiopian potash project. For further information, see "Legal Proceedings" below. 4) For 2020, this reflects an increase in the provision following the implementation of an efficiency plan, primarily through an early retirement plan, at Israeli production facilities (Rotem Amfert Israel, Bromine Compounds and Dead Sea Magnesium). |
