LAKE FOREST, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Reynolds Consumer Products Inc. (the “Company” or “RCP”) (Nasdaq: REYN) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.
Third Quarter 2024 Highlights
-
Net Revenues of $910 million vs. $935 million in Q3 2023
- Retail Net Revenues decreased 3% to $856 million, in line with Company expectations
- Non-retail Net Revenues increased $3 million to $54 million, exceeding Company expectations
- Net Income and Adjusted Net Income of $86 million vs. $78 million in Q3 2023
- Adjusted EBITDA of $171 million vs. $165 million in Q3 2023
- Earnings Per Share and Adjusted Earnings Per Share of $0.41 vs. $0.37 in Q3 2023
- Operating Cash Flow of $307 million in first nine months of 2024
Retail volume was unchanged and in line with improved category performance after adjusting for a 2-point headwind from product portfolio optimization and shipment timing.
Net Income increased $8 million. Adjusted EBITDA increased $6 million driven by lower operational costs and SG&A, partially offset by the impact of lower Net Revenues. Net Income also increased as a result of those same factors as well as lower interest expense.
The Company further reduced Net Debt Leverage1 from 2.7x on December 31, 2023 to 2.3x on September 30, 2024.
“We are building on our leadership across household products and delivered another quarter of strong financial performance as a result,” said Lance Mitchell, President and Chief Executive Officer of Reynolds Consumer Products. “RCP’s business model is a competitive advantage and the trajectory of our commercial and financial trends is strong, making now the right time to implement our planned leadership transition.”
1Net Debt is defined as current portion of long-term debt plus long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents. Net Debt Leverage is defined as Net Debt divided by Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDA. See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for additional information. |
Reynolds Cooking & Baking
- Net Revenues decreased $7 million to $305 million reflecting a modest decrease in retail Net Revenues, partially offset by a $3 million increase in Non-retail Net Revenues
- Adjusted EBITDA was unchanged at $51 million
Adjusted EBITDA was unchanged reflecting decreased operational costs which were fully offset by lower revenue.
Retail volume decreased 3% driven by a shift in retailer orders from the third quarter into the second quarter, partially offset by expanded distribution of Reynolds Kitchens® Air Fryer liners and strong Reynolds and Diamond foil growth outside the United States. Reynolds® Wrap share of household foil increased year to date and parchment paper continued to grow driven by Reynolds Kitchens® Unbleached Parchment, Reynolds Kitchens® Parchment Pop-Up Sheets and Reynolds Kitchens® Air Fryer liners.
The Company advanced its shift to more sustainable offerings with the national launch of Reynolds® Wrap Recycled Foil in new, more sustainable packaging.
The Company once again partnered with Feeding America for Hunger Action Month in September to raise awareness of hunger across the nation. Since the partnership’s inception, Reynolds® has donated approximately 10 million meals through Feeding America.
Hefty Waste & Storage
- Net Revenues increased $4 million to $248 million, resulting in record third quarter Net Revenues
- Adjusted EBITDA was unchanged at $71 million
Adjusted EBITDA was unchanged as the benefit of higher revenue was fully offset by increased advertising investment.
Volume increased 2% and exceeded category growth.
Hefty Fabuloso® delivered another quarter of strong double-digit growth, achieving $200 million in annual retail sales. National launch of Hefty Ultra Strong Fabuloso® Watermelon is planned for early 2025, and Hefty Press To Close food bags continue to grow with plans for expansion nationally in 2025 as well.
The Company expanded its portfolio of Hefty and store brand waste bags with post-consumer recycled materials and began shipping slider bags manufactured without PFAS. Hefty® ReNew™ continued its national expansion, launching in Lake County, Illinois and Tucson, Arizona during the quarter.
Hefty Tableware
- Net Revenues decreased $16 million to $217 million
- Adjusted EBITDA decreased $15 million to $26 million
The Adjusted EBITDA decrease was driven by lower volume and pricing, which was primarily related to timing of promotional activities, and increased operational costs.
Tableware volume decreased 4% as lower foam plate volume more than offset modest growth of other tableware products. Decreased foam plate volume was driven by recent legislative changes in several states, consumers shifting towards more sustainable offerings and a reduction of retailers’ foam plate offerings in some states. Volume excluding foam plates outperformed its categories.
With the start of football season, the Company introduced Hefty® Kickoff Cups, a limited-edition giveaway that comes with 32 Hefty Kickoff Cups designed to spark new connections at tail-gate parties and other social gatherings.
Presto Products
- Net Revenues decreased $3 million to $149 million
- Adjusted EBITDA increased $2 million to $33 million
The Adjusted EBITDA increase was driven by product portfolio optimization.
Volume decreased 2% reflecting product portfolio optimization, partially offset by continued growth of private label food bags.
Product innovations including 25% plant-based compostable press to close food bags, bio-based sandwich bags made with 20% plant & ocean materials, half gallon storage and freezer bags and Brute 42-gallon flap top waste bags contributed to strong leadership of store brand food and waste bags.
Year to Date 2024 Highlights
-
Net Revenues of $2,675 million vs. $2,750 million in the comparable prior year period
- Retail Net Revenues decreased 2%
- Non-retail Net Revenues decreased to $131 million
- Net Income and Adjusted Net Income of $231 million vs. $161 million in the comparable prior year period
- Adjusted EBITDA of $465 million vs. $398 million in the comparable prior year period
- Earnings Per Share and Adjusted Earnings Per Share of $1.10 vs. $0.77 in the comparable prior year period
Retail volume outperformed Company expectations, decreasing 2% and included a headwind of over 1% from product portfolio optimization.
Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA increased $70 million and $67 million, respectively, with Adjusted EBITDA driven by manufacturing volume output and lower operational costs, partially offset by the impact of lower Net Revenues and increased advertising investments. Net Income benefited from these same factors as well as lower interest expense.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights
Cash and cash equivalents were $96 million at September 30, 2024 and debt was $1,735 million resulting in Net Debt of $1,639 million.
The Company further reduced Net Debt to Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDA1 from 2.7x on December 31, 2023 to 2.3x on September 30, 2024.
Operating cash flow of $307 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was driven by strong profitability and disciplined working capital management.
Subsequent to quarter end, the Company made a voluntary principal payment of $50 million on its term loan facility, bringing year-to-date prepayments to $150 million as a result.

The Company continues to expect the relative contribution of each quarter’s Adjusted EBITDA to the full year’s Adjusted EBITDA returning to historical averages.
Net income growth is forecasted to be driven by the same factors driving Adjusted EBITDA as well as an approximately $20 million expected reduction in interest expense compared to 2023 net interest expense of $119 million.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We use non-GAAP financial measures “Adjusted EBITDA,” “Adjusted Net Income,” “Adjusted Earnings Per Share,” “Net Debt” and “Net Debt to Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDA,” in evaluating our past results and future prospects. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income calculated in accordance with GAAP, plus the sum of income tax expense, net interest expense, depreciation and amortization and further adjusted to exclude certain non-recurring items, if applicable. We define Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share (“Adjusted EPS”) as Net Income and Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) calculated in accordance with GAAP, plus the sum of certain non-recurring items, if applicable. We define Net Debt as the current portion of long-term debt plus long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents. We define Net Debt to Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDA as Net Debt (as defined above) as of the end of the period to Adjusted EBITDA (as defined above) for the period.
We present Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by our management team to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions. In addition, our chief operating decision maker uses Adjusted EBITDA of each reportable segment to evaluate the operating performance of such segments. We use Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share as supplemental measures to evaluate our business’ performance in a way that also considers our ability to generate profit without the impact of certain items. We use Net Debt as we believe it is a more representative measure of our liquidity. We use Net Debt to Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDA because it reflects our ability to service our debt obligations. Accordingly, we believe presenting these measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management team and board of directors.
Non-GAAP information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as or comparable to similar non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies.
Guidance for fiscal year and fourth quarter 2024, where adjusted, is provided on a non-GAAP basis. The Company cannot reconcile its expected Net Debt at December 31, 2024 to expected total debt without reasonable effort because certain items that impact total debt and other reconciling measures are out of the Company’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted at this time, to which unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company’s GAAP financial results.
Please see reconciliations of Non-GAAP measures used in this release (with the exception of our December 31, 2024 Net Debt outlook, as described above) to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, beginning on the following page.
