LSB Industries, Inc. Reports Operating Results for the 2022 Third Quarter

Achieves Record Third Quarter Adjusted EBITDA

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla.--()--LSB Industries, Inc. (NYSE: LXU) (“LSB” or the “Company”) today announced results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.

Third Quarter 2022 Highlights

  • Net sales of $184 million compared to $127 million in the third quarter of 2021
  • Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $50 million compared to $38 million in the third quarter of 2021
  • Adjusted EPS(1) of $0.27 compared to $0.07 in the third quarter of 2021
  • Cash Flow from Operations of $38 million and Capital Expenditures of $16 million
  • Total liquidity of approximately $450 million as of September 30, 2022
  • Successfully completed major turnarounds at two facilities during past three months
  • Repurchased approximately 7 million shares during the third quarter

"We delivered strong top and bottom line growth as compared to last year despite executing two turnarounds in this year's third quarter versus one in last year's third quarter," stated Mark Behrman, LSB’s President and CEO. "We continued to benefit from higher selling prices compared to last year, and our strategic commercial initiatives that enabled us to optimize our sales mix in the face of a rapidly changing market environment. Pricing remains well above year-ago levels and there are multiple supply and demand factors currently at play that we expect will continue to support strong pricing for the final two months of 2022 and for 2023, if not longer."

"Even with the reduced volumes resulting from our third quarter scheduled maintenance activities at our Pryor and El Dorado facilities, we once again generated meaningful positive operating cash flow. Our increasingly strong balance sheet enabled us to complete a total of $100 million of share repurchases for a total of approximately 7.6 million shares since the program began in May. These repurchases included 5.5 million shares that we bought from our largest shareholder, efficiently returning capital to our shareholders while not diminishing the liquidity of our stock."

Mr. Behrman continued, "Over the next several years, we believe we have an opportunity to continue to drive shareholder value through ongoing improvement of our operating rates, continued product optimization and potential debottlenecking projects. We believe these projects could materially increase the production capacities of our facilities, enhancing our profit margins as we capitalize on the operating leverage inherent in our business model. We expect to formalize and announce our debottlenecking plans in early 2023."

"In addition, we continue to advance our decarbonization activities. In April we announced our CO2 capture and sequestration or 'blue' ammonia project at our El Dorado facility where we intend to initially capture approximately 450,000 tons of CO2 annually. We have made significant advancements on data collection necessary for a Class VI permit application and expect to file that application in the second quarter of 2023. Additionally, in May we announced a feasibility study for a zero-carbon or 'green' ammonia project at our Pryor facility and we are in the final stages of completing that study. We will report on the results of the feasibility study when it is complete."

Mr. Behrman concluded, "As we head into the final months of 2022 we are highly enthusiastic about our near and longer term prospects for profitable growth, free cash flow generation and increased shareholder value given the favorable outlook for our markets coupled with the company-specific initiatives we have underway. Supporting that belief, on Monday we announced an increase of $75 million to our share repurchase program bringing the total repurchase program to $175 million."

Comparison of 2022 to 2021 quarterly periods:

  • Net sales increased during the quarter driven by stronger pricing for all of our products for sales made at both spot pricing as well as those related to a rise in the Tampa ammonia benchmark price, to which many of our contracts are tied. The benefit of stronger pricing was partially offset by lower sales volumes due largely to turnarounds at two of our facilities that took place in the third quarter of 2022 versus only one turnaround in the third quarter of 2021.
  • The year-over-year improvement in operating income and adjusted EBITDA primarily resulted from higher selling prices, partially offset by higher natural gas feedstock prices and lower sales volumes.

Financial Position and Capital Expenditures

As of September 30, 2022, our total liquidity was approximately $450 million, including $385 million in cash and short-term investments and approximately $65 million of borrowing availability under our Working Capital Revolver. Total long-term debt, including the $10 million current portion, was $714 million on September 30, 2022 compared to $528 million on December 31, 2021.

Interest expense for the third quarter of 2022 was $12 million as compared to $13 million in the third quarter of 2021.

During the third quarter we repurchased approximately $90 million of the Company’s stock at an average price of approximately $13 per share under the share repurchase plan that our Board of Directors increased from the $50 million originally authorized on May 16, 2022 to $100 million on August 8, 2022.

Capital expenditures were approximately $16.1 million for the third quarter of 2022. For the full year 2022, total capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $65 million.

Outlook

Market conditions remain intact to keep fertilizer prices above historical averages for the remainder of 2022 and full year 2023. Farmer economics continue to be very favorable as a result of strong global demand for corn in the face of constrained supply. Key factors include the impact on global corn supplies of dry conditions in South America, the Western U.S. and parts of Europe coupled with continued high demand for corn from China. As a result, corn prices remain above 10-year averages and farmer profitability is meaningfully positive despite inflation across their cost inputs. In order to maximize yield in 2023 to capitalize on these favorable economics, we expect demand for agricultural ammonia to be strong through November and into December as farmers seek to replenish the nitrogen in their soil in advance of the coming Spring planting season.

Natural gas costs in Europe continue to be a major driver of high fertilizer prices. While down from the peak levels reached in August, which caused operations at numerous European ammonia facilities to cease due to prohibitively high production costs, natural gas prices in Europe remain well above historical averages. Moving into the winter heating season it appears possible that European gas prices could rise again if temperatures are below average for periods of time as supply remains tight. This would limit or prevent many of the continent's ammonia facilities from resuming production, keeping nitrogen fertilizer prices high. Despite energy cost inflation in the U.S., domestic natural gas prices remain a fraction of those in Europe, giving U.S. ammonia producers a substantial cost advantage in the global market.

The impact of the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the ongoing conflict in the region has contributed to the constraints to both global grain and ammonia supplies, as well as an aggravating factor to Europe's high gas prices. Ukraine is one of the world’s largest exporters of corn while Russia is among the world’s largest exporters of wheat and ammonia and was historically a major supplier of gas to much of Europe. At this point, it seems likely that even if the current unstable geopolitical situation in the region were to be resolved soon, the global supply of these commodities would still be short to meet demand throughout the entirety of 2023 and beyond.

With respect to industrial markets, demand remains stable from domestic end-use markets, while orders from customers producing products largely for export to Europe and Asia have softened to a degree given weakening international economies. Importantly, in addition to our contractual agreements with industrial customers that specify minimum volumes, our product mix flexibility helps us mitigate the impact of a reduction in demand from certain end markets by shifting production to products with stronger demand. An example would be our ability to reduce our nitric acid volumes in favor of increased production of ammonium nitrate. Relative to this, we have been experiencing favorable trends in our mining business as rising global consumption of coal has strengthened demand and pricing for ammonium nitrate, a product we sell to mining services companies for use in aggregates and metals mining operations. Overall, despite growing global recessionary forces, our industrial and mining business remains stable as a whole.

Non-GAAP Reconciliations

This news release includes certain “non-GAAP financial measures” under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including Regulation G. These non-GAAP measures are calculated using GAAP amounts in our consolidated financial statements.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation

EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) plus interest expense, less gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt, plus depreciation and amortization (D&A) (which includes D&A of property, plant and equipment and amortization of intangible and other assets), plus provision (benefit) for income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA is reported to show the impact of non-cash stock-based compensation, one time/non-cash or non-operating items-such as, one-time income or fees, loss (gain) on sale of a business and/or other property and equipment, certain fair market value (FMV) adjustments, and consulting costs associated with reliability and purchasing initiatives (Initiatives). We historically have performed Turnaround activities on an annual basis; however, we have moved towards extending Turnarounds to a two or three-year cycle. Rather than being capitalized and amortized over the period of benefit, our accounting policy is to recognize the costs as incurred. Given these Turnarounds are essentially investments that provide benefits over multiple years, they are not reflective of our operating performance in a given year.

We believe that certain investors consider EBITDA a useful means of measuring our ability to meet our debt service obligations and evaluating our financial performance. In addition, we believe that certain investors consider adjusted EBITDA as more meaningful to further assess our performance. We believe that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments to EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about certain items.

EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA have limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, operating income, cash flow from operations or other consolidated income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of other companies. The following table provides a reconciliation of net income (loss) to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA for the periods indicated. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated by taking adjusted EBITDA divided by Net Sales.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per share have been adjusted for the impact of the closing of the Exchange Transaction on September 27, 2021 as well as the one time/non-cash or non-operating items referred to in the above section relating to Adjusted EBITDA.

Ammonia, AN, Nitric Acid, UAN Sales Price Reconciliation

The following table provides a reconciliation of total identified net sales as reported under GAAP in our consolidated financial statements reconciled to netback sales which is calculated as net sales less freight and other non-netback costs. We believe this provides a relevant industry comparison among our peer group.
