MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Element Solutions Inc (NYSE:ESI) (“Element Solutions” or the “Company”), a global and diversified specialty chemicals company, today announced its financial results from continuing operations for the second quarter ended June 30, 2019.
Unless otherwise specified, the results presented in this press release exclude discontinued operations relating to the Company's former Agricultural Solutions business, which was sold on January 31, 2019.
Executive Commentary
Chief Executive Officer Benjamin Gliklich said, “In a challenging macroeconomic environment this quarter, we demonstrated the resilience of our business model and stability of our cash flow. Our end-markets were impacted by headwinds we expected entering the quarter in electronics and automotive, specifically in Asia. We anticipated this and have managed our cost footprint to reflect the commercial reality year to date. Through our continued execution against corporate cost savings and cost containment in the business, we were pleased to see our adjusted EBITDA margin increase despite the pressure on the top line. This is a testament to our team's experience and our nimble operating model.”
Mr. Gliklich continued, “While we still expect a seasonal pick-up in the third quarter, we are not counting on a strong recovery as geopolitical uncertainty continues to weigh on demand in the underlying market in the second half. Taking all of this into account, we are reducing our full-year net sales expectations to a decline of between 1% and 3% on an organic basis. While this is well below our expectation for long-term average growth, it reflects out-performance relative to our end-markets which we expect to decline in the mid-single digits this year. We still expect adjusted EBITDA to grow on a constant currency basis by 2% to 5% in 2019. We are maintaining the midpoint of our full-year adjusted EPS guidance, but narrowing the range to $0.83 to $0.86 which represents growth of approximately 24% year-over-year. Year to date, we have generated approximately $86 million of free cash flow on an adjusted basis and remain on track to generate approximately $200 million of free cash flow on an adjusted basis this year. This cash flow, the hallmark of our business in all markets, provides us flexibility and we plan to deploy it prudently to continue to drive earnings growth, while respecting a net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio of 3.5 times or less.”
Second Quarter 2019 Highlights (compared with second quarter 2018) for continuing operations:

Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements, beliefs, projections and expectations regarding the Company's corporate cost savings and cost containment; seasonal pick-up in the third quarter and recovery in the second half of 2019; 2019 financial guidance, including full year net sales expectations on an organic basis, full year adjusted EBITDA growth on a constant currency basis and full year adjusted EPS guidance; expectation for long-term average growth; outlook for end-markets; generation of approximately $200 million of free cash flow on an adjusted basis in 2019 and use of free cash flow to drive earnings growth while respecting a net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio of 3.5 times or less.

Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, Element Solutions has provided in this release the following non-GAAP financial measures: EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted EPS, adjusted common shares outstanding, free cash flow, guidance related to adjusted EPS and constant currency adjusted EBITDA growth, net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio, organic net sales growth and organic net sales growth expectations. The Company also evaluates and presents its results of operations on a constant currency basis.
Management internally reviews each of the non-GAAP measures mentioned above to evaluate performance on a comparative period-to-period basis in terms of absolute performance, trends and expected future performance with respect to the Company’s business, and believes that these non-GAAP measures provide investors with an additional perspective on trends and underlying operating results on a period-to-period comparable basis. The Company also believes that investors find this information helpful in understanding the ongoing performance of its operations separate from items that may have a disproportionate positive or negative impact on its financial results in any particular period or are considered to be associated with its capital structure. These non-GAAP financial measures, however, have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation from, a substitute for, or superior to, the related financial information that Element Solutions reports in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company’s financial statements, and may not be completely comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to potential differences in calculation methods. In addition, these measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management about which items are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable GAAP financial measures included in this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company's businesses.
The Company only provides adjusted EBITDA guidance, adjusted EPS guidance and organic net sales growth expectations on a non-GAAP basis and does not provide reconciliations of such forward-looking non-GAAP measures to GAAP due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations, including adjustments that could be made for restructurings, refinancings, divestitures, integration-related expenses, share-based compensation amounts, non-recurring, unusual or unanticipated charges, expenses or gains, adjustments to inventory and other charges reflected in its reconciliation of historic numbers, the amount of which, based on historical experience, could be significant.
Constant Currency:
The Company discloses net sales and adjusted EBITDA on a constant currency basis by adjusting to exclude the impact of changes due to the translation of foreign currencies of its international locations into U.S. dollar. Management believes this non-GAAP financial information facilitates period-to-period comparison in the analysis of trends in business performance, thereby providing valuable supplemental information regarding its results of operations, consistent with how the Company internally evaluates its financial results.
The impact of foreign currency translation is calculated by converting the Company's current-period local currency financial results into U.S. dollar using the prior period's exchange rates and comparing these adjusted amounts to its prior period reported results. The difference between actual growth rates and constant currency growth rates represents the impact of foreign currency translation.
Organic Net Sales Growth:
Organic net sales growth is defined as net sales excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, changes due to the pass-through pricing of certain metals and acquisitions and/or divestitures, as applicable. Management believes this non-GAAP financial measure provides investors with a more complete understanding of the underlying net sales trends by providing comparable net sales over differing periods on a consistent basis.
The following table reconciles GAAP net sales growth to organic net sales growth for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019:

NOTE: Totals may not sum due to rounding.
For the three months ended June 30, 2019, Electronics' and the Company's consolidated results were positively impacted by $1.0 million of acquisitions and $0.7 million of pass-through metals pricing. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, Electronics' and the Company's consolidated results were positively impacted by $3.6 million of acquisitions and $1.6 million of pass-through metals pricing.
Adjusted Earnings Per Share:
Adjusted earnings per share (EPS) is defined as net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to common stockholders adjusted to reflect adjustments consistent with the Company's definition of adjusted EBITDA. Additionally, the Company eliminates the amortization associated with intangibles assets and the step-up depreciation associated with fixed assets, both recognized in purchase accounting for acquisitions. Further, the Company adjusts its effective tax rate to 27% and 34% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, as described in footnote (10) under the reconciliation table below. Lastly, the 2019 adjusted EPS total is based on the Company's new capital structure by assuming that the sale of Agricultural Solutions (the "Arysta Sale") had closed and its new credit agreement had been in place on January 1, 2019, which the Company believes is more reflective of the go-forward capital structure of the Company.
The resulting adjusted net income from continuing operations is then divided by Element Solutions' outstanding number of shares of common stock plus the number of shares that would be issued if all convertible stock was converted to common stock, stock options were vested and exercised and equity grants with targets that are considered probable of achievement were vested at target and issued at each period presented. Adjusted EPS is a key metric used by management to measure operating performance and trends as management believes the exclusion of certain expenses in calculating adjusted EPS facilitates operating performance comparisons on a period-to-period basis.
The following table reconciles GAAP "Net income attributable to common stockholders" to "Adjusted net income from continuing operations attributable to common stockholders" and presents the adjusted number of common shares used in calculating adjusted EPS for each period presented below:

(1) The Company eliminates amortization expense associated with intangible assets and incremental depreciation associated with the step-up of fixed assets recognized in purchase accounting for acquisitions. The Company believes these adjustments provide insight with respect to the cash flows necessary to maintain and enhance its product portfolio.
(2) The Company adjusts its 2019 interest expense to reflect its new capital structure by assuming that the Arysta Sale had closed and its new credit agreement had been in place on January 1, 2019 which the Company believes is more reflective of the go-forward capital structure of the Company.
(3) The Company adjusts for costs of restructuring its operations, including those related to its acquired businesses. The Company adjusts these costs because it believes they are not reflective of ongoing operations.
(4) The Company adjusts for costs associated with integration activity, including costs of obtaining related financing, legal and accounting fees and transfer taxes. The Company adjusts these costs because it believes they are not reflective of ongoing operations.
(5) The Company adjusts for foreign exchange gains and losses on long-term intercompany and third-party debt because it expects the period-to-period movement of these currencies to offset on a long-term basis and, due to their long-term nature, are not fully realized. The Company does not exclude foreign exchange gains and losses on short-term intercompany and third-party payables and receivables.
(6) The Company adjusts for costs related to the redemption of its prior 6.00% and 6.50% senior notes and the paydown its term loan debt outstanding at the time of the Arysta Sale because it believes these costs are not reflective of ongoing operations.
(7) The Company adjusts for a gain on the sale of an equity investment in 2018 because it believes it is not reflective of ongoing operations.
(8) The Company adjusts for changes in the fair value of contingent consideration related to the acquisition of MacDermid, Incorporated (the "MacDermid Acquisition") because it believes these costs are not reflective of ongoing operations.
(9) The Company's 2019 adjustments include a gain on derivative contracts which was primarily associated with the refinancing of the Company's non-U.S. dollar denominated third-party debt, offset in part by employee expenses associated with the Arysta Sale that do not qualify for discontinued operations, non-recurring severance payments to senior management and certain professional consulting fees. The Company's 2018 adjustments primarily include professional consulting fees. The Company adjusts these costs because it believes they are not reflective of ongoing operations.
(10) The Company adjusts its effective tax rate to 27% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. This adjustment does not reflect the Company’s current or near-term tax structure, including limitations on its ability to utilize net operating losses and foreign tax credits in certain jurisdictions. The Company also applies an effective tax rate of 27% to pre-tax non-GAAP adjustments. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company adjusted its effective tax rate to 34%. These effective tax rates adjustments are made because the Company believes they provide a meaningful comparison of its performance between periods.
(11) In connection with the merger on March 29, 2019 of Platform Delaware Holdings, Inc. ("PDH") with and into the Company, each outstanding equity interest in PDH was converted into one share of the Company's common stock. For historical periods, the Company adjusted for the income or loss attributable to non-controlling interests created at the time of the MacDermid Acquisition because holders of such equity interests were expected to convert their PDH holdings into shares of the Company's common stock. The Company also adjusted these non-controlling interests because it believed they were not reflective of ongoing operations.
(12) The Company defines "Adjusted common shares" as the outstanding number of shares of its common stock at June 30, 2019 or 2018, plus the number of shares that would be issued if all convertible stock was converted into common stock, stock options were vested and exercised and awarded equity grants with targets that are considered probable of achievement were vested at target and issued as of June 30, 2019 or 2018, as applicable. The Company adjusts the number of outstanding shares of its common stock for this calculation to provide an understanding of the Company’s results of operations on a per share basis. See table below for further information.

The following table shows Element Solutions' adjusted common shares outstanding at each period presented which consists of Element Solutions' outstanding number of shares of common stock, plus the number of shares that would be issued if all convertible stock was converted into common stock, stock options were vested and exercised and awarded equity grants with targets that are considered probable of achievement were vested at target and issued at each period presented:

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA:
EBITDA represents earnings before interest, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA, excluding the impact of additional items included in GAAP earnings which the Company believes are not representative or indicative of its ongoing business or are considered to be associated with its capital structure, as described in the footnotes located under the "Adjusted Earnings Per Share" reconciliation table above. Adjusted EBITDA for each segment also includes an allocation of corporate costs, such as compensation expense and professional fees. Management believes adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin provide investors with a more complete understanding of the long-term profitability trends of Element Solutions' business and facilitate comparisons of its profitability to prior and future periods.

Free Cash Flow:
Free cash flow is defined as net cash flows from operating activities less net capital expenditures. Net capital expenditures include capital expenditures less proceeds from the disposal of property, plant and equipment. Free cash flow on an adjusted basis adjusts for one-time cash operating expenses related to the Arysta Sale and for the payment of a portion of the contingent consideration related to the MacDermid Acquisition, and assumes that the Company's new capital structure was in place on January 1, 2019. Management believes that free cash flow, which measures the Company’s ability to generate cash from its business operations, is an important financial measure for use in evaluating the Company's financial performance. However, free cash flow should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of the Company’s liquidity.
The following table reconciles "Cash flows from operating activities" to "Free cash flows on an adjusted basis:"

(2) Adjustment for the payment of the contingent consideration related to the MacDermid Acquisition and payment for employee expenses associated with the Arysta Sale that do not qualify for discontinued operations.
