PITTSBURGH & CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Kraft Heinz Company (NASDAQ: KHC) (“Kraft Heinz” or the “Company”) today reported third quarter 2018 financial results that reflected solid gains from Organic Net Sales growth and lower taxes versus the prior year period that were offset by investments in strategic capabilities, as well as higher overhead and input costs.
“We believe that our Q3 results are strong evidence that our commercial investments are working, with solid top line performance in the quarter,” said Kraft Heinz CEO Bernardo Hees. “This reflects our strong pipeline of marketing, new product and whitespace initiatives now in the marketplace, backed by investments in capabilities we have been making for brand and category advantage. While a number of one-off factors - as well as our desire to insure customer service - held back profit in the quarter, we remain confident that we are well-positioned to deliver sustainable, profitable growth going forward.”

Net sales were $6.4 billion, up 1.6 percent versus the year-ago period, including a negative 1.6 percentage point impact from currency and a net 0.6 percentage point benefit from acquisitions and divestitures. Organic Net Sales increased 2.6 percent versus the year-ago period. Pricing was down 0.9 percentage points, driven by increased promotional support and key commodity(2)-related pricing actions in the United States that more than offset increased pricing in Rest of World markets, primarily from highly inflationary environments. Volume/mix increased 3.5 percentage points, with growth in every segment and led by consumption growth in a majority of categories in the United States.
Net income attributable to common shareholders decreased to $630 million and diluted EPS decreased to $0.51, primarily reflecting non-cash impairment charges and higher costs in the current period, partially offset by lower taxes. Adjusted EBITDA decreased 14.4 percent versus the year-ago period to $1.6 billion, including a negative 0.9 percentage point impact from currency. Excluding the impact of currency, the decline in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by investments in strategic capabilities, higher overhead costs and input costs that more than offset Organic Net Sales growth. Adjusted EPS decreased 6.0 percent to $0.78, as lower taxes on adjusted earnings in the current period were more than offset by lower Adjusted EBITDA.

United States net sales were $4.4 billion, up 1.8 percent versus the year-ago period. Pricing decreased 2.0 percentage points, driven by increased in-store activity, particularly in natural cheese and ready-to-drink beverages, as well as commodity-driven pricing actions in bacon. This was partially offset by favorable timing of promotional activity versus the prior year in Lunchables. Volume/mix increased 3.8 percentage points, driven by consumption-led growth across a majority of categories, including beverages, nuts, bacon, refrigerated meal combinations, and cream cheese.
United States Segment Adjusted EBITDA decreased 16.2 percent versus the year-ago period to $1.2 billion, as gains from volume/mix growth and favorable key commodity costs versus the prior year period were more than offset by a combination of lower pricing, non-key commodity cost inflation including logistics, investments in capability building, as well as higher overhead costs versus the year-ago period.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the financial information, the Company has presented Organic Net Sales, Adjusted EBITDA, Constant Currency Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EPS, which are considered non-GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measures provided should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, results prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) that are presented in this press release. The non-GAAP financial measures presented may differ from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies, and other companies may not define these non-GAAP financial measures in the same way. These measures are not substitutes for their comparable GAAP financial measures, such as net sales, net income/(loss), diluted earnings per share, or other measures prescribed by GAAP, and there are limitations to using non-GAAP financial measures.
Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to assist in comparing the Company's performance on a consistent basis for purposes of business decision making by removing the impact of certain items that management believes do not directly reflect the Company's underlying operations. Management believes that presenting the Company's non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors because it (i) provides investors with meaningful supplemental information regarding financial performance by excluding certain items, (ii) permits investors to view performance using the same tools that management uses to budget, make operating and strategic decisions, and evaluate historical performance, and (iii) otherwise provides supplemental information that may be useful to investors in evaluating the Company's results. The Company believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations to those measures, provides investors with additional understanding of the factors and trends affecting the Company's business than could be obtained absent these disclosures.
Organic Net Sales is defined as net sales excluding, when they occur, the impact of currency, acquisitions and divestitures, and a 53rd week of shipments. The Company calculates the impact of currency on net sales by holding exchange rates constant at the previous year's exchange rate, with the exception of Venezuela, for which the Company calculates the previous year's results using the current year's exchange rate. Organic Net Sales is a tool that can assist management and investors in comparing the Company's performance on a consistent basis by removing the impact of certain items that management believes do not directly reflect the Company's underlying operations.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income/(loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, other expense/(income), net, provision for/(benefit from) income taxes, and depreciation and amortization (excluding integration and restructuring expenses); in addition to these adjustments, the Company excludes, when they occur, the impacts of integration and restructuring expenses, deal costs, unrealized losses/(gains) on commodity hedges, impairment losses, losses/(gains) on the sale of a business, nonmonetary currency devaluation (e.g., remeasurement gains and losses), and equity award compensation expense (excluding integration and restructuring expenses). The Company also presents Adjusted EBITDA on a constant currency basis. The Company calculates the impact of currency on Adjusted EBITDA by holding exchange rates constant at the previous year's exchange rate, with the exception of Venezuela, for which it calculates the previous year's results using the current year's exchange rate. Adjusted EBITDA and Constant Currency Adjusted EBITDA are tools that can assist management and investors in comparing the Company's performance on a consistent basis by removing the impact of certain items that management believes do not directly reflect the Company's underlying operations.
Adjusted EPS is defined as diluted earnings per share excluding, when they occur, the impacts of integration and restructuring expenses, deal costs, unrealized losses/(gains) on commodity hedges, impairment losses, losses/(gains) on the sale of a business, nonmonetary currency devaluation (e.g., remeasurement gains and losses), and U.S. Tax Reform discrete income tax expense/(benefit), and including when they occur, adjustments to reflect preferred stock dividend payments on an accrual basis. The Company believes Adjusted EPS provides important comparability of underlying operating results, allowing investors and management to assess operating performance on a consistent basis.

Expenses for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2018 primarily related to the revaluation of our deferred tax balances due to changes in state tax laws following U.S. Tax Reform. These expenses were partially offset by benefits related to the release of U.S. tax reserves and changes in estimates of certain 2017 U.S. income and deductions. Additionally, expenses for the nine months ended were partially offset by U.S. Tax Reform measurement period adjustments. | |||
