(1) Adjusted local currency percentage changes are described in more detail in the "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Amounts" at the end of this release.

The Flavors & Extracts Group reported third quarter revenue of $181.7 million compared to $182.9 million reported in the comparable period last year, a decrease of 0.7%, primarily due to the divestiture of the Fragrances product line in April 2021. Adjusted local currency revenue increased 11.6% in the quarter. The higher adjusted local currency revenue was primarily the result of favorable volume growth. Segment operating income was $25.2 million in the current quarter compared to $23.8 million reported in the comparable period last year, an increase of 5.5%. Adjusted local currency operating income increased 16.0% in the quarter. The Group’s higher profit was primarily a result of the favorable volume growth. The acquisition of Flavor Solutions, Inc. during the third quarter contributed $2.4 million of revenue and an immaterial amount of operating income to the Flavors & Extracts Group. Foreign currency translation increased both segment revenue and operating income by approximately 1% in the quarter.

The Color Group reported revenue of $139.2 million in the quarter compared to $116.4 million in last year’s comparable period, an increase of 19.6%. Adjusted local currency revenue increased 18.1% in the quarter. The Group experienced strong volume growth in Food & Pharmaceutical Colors and in Personal Care. Segment operating income was $27.3 million in the quarter compared to $23.6 million in last year’s comparable period, an increase of 15.7%. Adjusted local currency operating income increased 14.8% compared to the prior year’s third quarter. The higher operating income is primarily a result of the higher volumes. Foreign currency translation increased both segment revenue and operating income by approximately 2% in the quarter.

The Asia Pacific Group reported revenue of $33.4 million in the quarter compared to $30.7 million in last year’s comparable period, an increase of 8.8%. Adjusted local currency revenue increased 9.5% in the quarter. Segment operating income was $6.6 million in the quarter compared to $6.1 million in last year’s comparable quarter, an increase of 7.8%. Adjusted local currency operating income increased 10.5% in the quarter. The higher profit was primarily a result of the favorable volume growth. Foreign currency translation decreased segment revenue and operating income by approximately 1% and 2%, respectively, in the quarter.

Corporate & Other reported operating costs of $12.1 million in the current quarter compared to $12.4 million in last year’s comparable period, a decrease of 2.5%. The lower costs are primarily due to lower operational improvement plan costs reported in the third quarter of 2021 compared to the amount recorded in the third quarter of 2020. Adjusted local currency operating expenses for Corporate & Other increased 19% in the quarter primarily due to higher performance based compensation.

2021 OUTLOOK

Sensient is reconfirming its previously issued 2021 guidance for GAAP diluted earnings per share to grow at a mid-to-high single-digit growth rate compared to the Company’s 2020 reported GAAP diluted earnings per share of $2.59. Our full year 2021 guidance includes approximately 25 cents per share of estimated divestiture & other related costs, the results of the divested operations, and the operational improvement plan costs.

The Company now expects its 2021 adjusted local currency revenue(2) to grow at a high single-digit rate. The Company’s previous 2021 guidance for adjusted local currency revenue(2) was a mid-single-digit growth rate. The Company also now expects its 2021 adjusted local currency EBITDA(2) and adjusted diluted earnings per share(2), on a local currency basis, to grow at a mid-to-high single-digit growth rate. The Company’s previous 2021 adjusted local currency EBITDA(2) and adjusted diluted earnings per share(2) called for a mid-single-digit growth rate.

The Company expects earnings per share reported on a U.S. dollar basis to benefit by approximately seven cents based on current exchange rates.

The Company’s guidance is based upon current trends, current tax law, and the effects of COVID-19 to date. The full impacts of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic remain uncertain and management will continue to monitor its impacts on our business.

We have included each of these non-GAAP measures in order to provide additional information regarding our underlying operating results and comparable period-over-period performance. Such information is supplemental to information presented in accordance with GAAP and is not intended to represent a presentation in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation. Rather, they should be considered together with GAAP measures and the rest of the information included in this release and our SEC filings. Management internally reviews each of these non-GAAP measures to evaluate performance on a comparative period-to-period basis and to gain additional insight into underlying operating and performance trends, and we believe the information can be beneficial to investors for the same purposes. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
