STAMFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Silgan Holdings Inc. (NYSE: SLGN), a leading supplier of sustainable rigid packaging solutions for the world's essential consumer goods products, today reported first quarter 2024 net sales of $1.32 billion and net income of $55.2 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, as compared to first quarter 2023 net sales of $1.42 billion and net income of $72.0 million, or $0.65 per diluted share.
Adjusted net income per diluted share for the first quarter of 2024 was $0.69, after adjustments increasing net income per diluted share by $0.17. Adjusted net income per diluted share for the first quarter of 2023 was $0.78 after adjustments increasing net income per diluted share by $0.13. A reconciliation of net income per diluted share to "adjusted net income per diluted share," a Non-GAAP financial measure used by the Company that adjusts net income per diluted share for certain items, can be found in Table A at the back of this press release.
"The Silgan team delivered strong first quarter results at the high end of our guidance range, which continued to display the power of our diverse portfolio and winning long-term business strategy," said Adam Greenlee, President and CEO. "Our global dispensing business is well positioned to deliver another year of growth and strong results through market leading innovation, strong end market demand, additional business wins and significant momentum in the marketplace. Consumer demand for our food and beverage products remains resilient, and our first quarter volumes, as expected, were impacted by our customers' first half destocking priorities. In certain markets, customers accelerated those activities to be more weighted to the first quarter than initially anticipated. In our Custom Containers business, we're encouraged that volumes improved sequentially, and we have also successfully commercialized a new business award as expected in the first quarter. Overall, we continue to see positive signs in each of our businesses with increased promotional activity at retail and improving demand trends," continued Mr. Greenlee. "We remain focused on meeting the unique needs of our customers while actively managing what is within our control. We have made significant progress towards our $50 million cost reduction program and are confident in our ability to deliver $20 million of cost savings in 2024. Importantly, we are on track to deliver our 2024 objectives and are encouraged with the opportunities that remain in 2024 and beyond," concluded Mr. Greenlee.
First Quarter Results
Net sales for the first quarter of 2024 were $1.32 billion, a decrease of $101.3 million, or 7%, as compared to record sales in the same period in the prior year. First quarter 2024 net sales declined predominantly as a result of lower volumes and the pass through of lower raw material costs.
Income before interest and income taxes (EBIT) for the first quarter of 2024 was $111.7 million, a decrease of $19.5 million as compared to $131.2 million for the first quarter of 2023. EBIT in the Dispensing and Specialty Closures, Metal Containers and Custom Containers segments were $59.7 million, $41.7 million, and $17.8 million, respectively, in the first quarter of 2024. Rationalization charges were $11.7 million and $4.1 million in the first quarters of 2024 and 2023, respectively. A reconciliation of EBIT for each segment to adjusted EBIT, a Non-GAAP financial measure used by the Company that adjusts EBIT for certain items, can be found in Table B at the back of this press release.
Interest and other debt expense for the first quarter of 2024 was $38.6 million, an increase of $1.8 million as compared to the first quarter of 2023 primarily due to the impact of higher interest rates.
The effective tax rates were 24.5% and 23.8% for the first quarters of 2024 and 2023, respectively.
First Quarter Segment Results
Dispensing and Specialty Closures
Net sales of the Dispensing and Specialty Closures segment were $535.9 million in the first quarter of 2024, a decrease of $44.0 million, or 8%, as compared to $579.9 million in the first quarter of 2023. The decrease in net sales from the prior year quarter was a result of lower volume/mix of 8%, driven by double digit declines in higher volume closures for food and beverage markets due to customer destocking priorities that accelerated to be more weighted to the first quarter. Demand for global dispensing products remained strong during the quarter.
Dispensing and Specialty Closures adjusted EBIT decreased $5.1 million to $77.8 million in the first quarter of 2024 as compared to $82.9 million in the first quarter of 2023. The decrease in adjusted EBIT was driven primarily by lower volume/mix, which was partially offset by favorable price/cost. Favorable price/cost was driven by improved manufacturing productivity that overcame the negative impact of the sell through of higher cost inventory from the prior year in our European food and beverage closures operations due to lower metal costs in 2024.
Metal Containers
Net sales of the Metal Containers segment were $617.1 million in the first quarter of 2024, a decrease of $53.0 million, or 8%, as compared to $670.1 million in the first quarter of 2023. The decrease in net sales from the prior year quarter was primarily a result of lower unit volume of 5% driven by continued customer destocking across several categories, as compared to very strong demand in the first quarter of 2023, and the contractual pass through of lower raw material costs.
Metal Containers adjusted EBIT decreased $7.4 million to $45.0 million in the first quarter of 2024 as compared to $52.4 million in the first quarter of 2023. The anticipated decline in adjusted EBIT in the quarter was predominantly the result of unfavorable price/cost including mix, due mostly to the sell through of higher cost inventory from the prior year in our European Metal Containers operations due to lower metal costs in 2024, and lower volume, which was partially offset by improved SG&A cost management.
Custom Containers
Net sales of the Custom Containers segment were $164.0 million in the first quarter of 2024, a decrease of $4.3 million, or 3%, as compared to $168.3 million in the first quarter of 2023. This decrease was primarily the result of lower volumes of 3% due to continued customer destocking activity.
Custom Containers adjusted EBIT increased $0.1 million to $20.2 million in the first quarter of 2024 as compared to $20.1 million in the first quarter of 2023. The increase in adjusted EBIT was primarily the result of more favorable price/cost including mix, which was partly offset by lower volumes.
Outlook for 2024
The Company is confirming its estimate of adjusted net income per diluted share for the full year of 2024 in the range of $3.55 to $3.75, a 7% increase at the midpoint of the range over adjusted net income per diluted share of $3.40 in 2023. Volumes in all segments for 2024 are expected to be higher than 2023 levels. Adjusted net income per diluted share excludes certain items as outlined in Table C at the back of this press release.
The Company anticipates interest and other debt expense in 2024 of approximately $170 million and an effective tax rate for 2024 of approximately 24 - 25%.
The Company currently estimates that free cash flow in 2024 will be approximately $375 million as compared to $356.7 million in 2023. Capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $240 million in 2024.
For the second quarter of 2024, the Company expects low to mid single digit volume growth in the Dispensing and Specialty Closures segment, low single digit volume growth in the Custom Containers segment, and comparable volumes in the Metal Containers segment as compared to the prior year period. The Company is providing an estimate of adjusted net income per diluted share for the second quarter of 2024 in the range of $0.82 to $0.92, a 5% increase at the midpoint of the range as compared to $0.83 in the second quarter of 2023. Adjusted net income per diluted share excludes certain items as outlined in Table C at the back of this press release.

(1) The Company has presented adjusted net income per diluted share for the periods covered by this press release, which measure is a Non-GAAP financial measure. The Company’s management believes it is useful to exclude acquired intangible asset amortization expense, other pension (income) expense for U.S. pension plans and rationalization charges from its net income per diluted share as calculated under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles because such Non-GAAP financial measure allows for a more appropriate evaluation of its operating results. Acquired intangible asset amortization expense is a non-cash expense related to acquired operations that management believes is not indicative of the on-going performance of the acquired operations. Since the Company's U.S. pension plans are significantly over funded and have no required cash contributions for the foreseeable future based on current regulations, management views other pension (income) expense from the Company's U.S. pension plans, which excludes service costs, as not reflective of the operational performance of the Company or its segments. While rationalization costs are incurred on a regular basis, management views these costs more as an investment to generate savings rather than period costs. Such Non-GAAP financial measure is not in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and should not be considered in isolation but should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and the other information presented herein. Additionally, such Non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered a substitute for net income per diluted share as calculated under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
(2) The Company has presented adjusted EBIT for the periods covered by this press release, which measure is a Non-GAAP financial measure. The Company’s management believes it is useful to exclude acquired intangible asset amortization expense, other pension (income) expense for U.S. pension plans and rationalization charges from EBIT for the Company and each of its segments as calculated under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles because such Non-GAAP financial measure allows for a more appropriate evaluation of operating results. Acquired intangible asset amortization expense is a non-cash expense related to acquired operations that management believes is not indicative of the on-going performance of the acquired operations. Since the Company's U.S. pension plans are significantly over funded and have no required cash contributions for the foreseeable future based on current regulations, management views other pension (income) expense from the Company's U.S. pension plans, which excludes service costs, as not reflective of the operational performance of the Company or its segments. While rationalization costs are incurred on a regular basis, management views these costs more as an investment to generate savings rather than period costs. Such Non-GAAP financial measure is not in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and should not be considered in isolation but should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and the other information presented herein. Additionally, such Non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered a substitute for income before interest and income taxes (EBIT) as calculated under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
