CHARLOTTE, N.C., Aug. 02, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Glatfelter Corporation (NYSE: GLT), a leading global supplier of engineered materials, today reported a loss from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2022 of $2.5 million, or $0.05 per share, compared with net income of $1.5 million, or $0.03 per share, in the same period a year ago. On an adjusted basis, earnings from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2022 and 2021 were a loss of $1.6 million, or $0.04 per share, compared with adjusted earnings of $8.0 million, or $0.18 per share, respectively. Adjusted earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure for which a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP-based measure is provided within this release. The 2021 results include the acquisitions of Georgia-Pacific’s U.S. nonwovens business (“Mount Holly”) and Jacob Holm ("Spunlace") as of May 13, 2021 and October 29, 2021, respectively.

Consolidated net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, totaled $364.0 million and $244.9 million, respectively. On a constant currency basis, net sales for Composite Fibers decreased 4.4% and increased 47.7% for Airlaid Materials (including Mount Holly). The Spunlace segment, formed in connection with the Jacob Holm acquisition, had net sales of approximately $96.9 million for the second quarter.

“In the second quarter, we outperformed operating profit expectations at the enterprise level driven by Composite Fibers and Airlaid Materials, however, we were disappointed with our Spunlace segment results,” said Dante C. Parrini, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “By intensifying efforts to mitigate inflationary pressures, we were successfully able to increase prices, drive operational efficiencies and tightly manage spending in the Composite Fibers and Airlaid Materials segments. Since announcing our dynamic pricing model initiative for the Composite Fibers segment in early 2022, we successfully converted 50% of its revenue base to a cost pass-through mechanism ahead of plan, which is materially helping to offset the impact of higher raw material, energy and logistics costs. Airlaid Materials delivered solid performance with profitability stronger than expected due to pricing actions including energy surcharges, favorable product mix and the successful execution of a capital project at our Falkenhagen facility.”

Mr. Parrini continued, “Our Spunlace segment faced substantially higher than expected inflationary challenges during the quarter and our price increases were insufficient to offset the impact. Supply chain disruptions also affected raw material availability, which curtailed production and product shipments. As a result, the segment was unable to sufficiently narrow the price/cost gap for its products primarily due to the impact of rising energy prices in Europe and the impact of higher oil prices on certain raw materials. We recently took aggressive cost actions to further right-size the legacy Jacob Holm leadership team and more deeply integrate the segment into our existing operating model, while concurrently implementing additional pricing actions to counteract inflation. Despite the near-term challenges in this segment, we remain committed to its success and the strategic purpose it contributes to the Glatfelter portfolio.”

Mr. Parrini concluded, “In response to the challenging business environment that we anticipate will continue at least for the remainder of 2022, we remain keenly focused on improving Spunlace performance and executing an intensive enterprise-wide initiative aimed at rapidly improving Glatfelter's overall profitability and execution capacity. Additionally, we are closely monitoring the Russia/Ukraine conflict, the complexities and risks with the energy situation in Europe and the ongoing inflation trends to determine the necessary actions needed to bolster our performance while continuing to serve our customers. Finally, as we navigate this ongoing period of unprecedented market and geopolitical turbulence, we remain confident that the Company's reshaped portfolio of engineered materials, used to produce essential consumer staples, will successfully deliver strong growth and more stable profitability over the long-term.”

Composite Fibers

Dollars in thousands  2022   2021  Change
         
Tons shipped(metric)  24,246   34,471   (10,225) (29.7)        %
Net sales $123,338  $141,598  $(18,260) (12.9)        %
Operating income  5,779   11,063   (5,284) (47.8)        %
Operating margin  4.7%  7.8%    

Composite Fibers’ net sales decreased $18.3 million or 12.9% in the second quarter of 2022, compared to the year-ago quarter. Higher selling prices of $14.4 million were more than offset by lower shipments of 29.7%. Wallcover shipments were 62% below prior year from lower shipments to customers in Russia and Ukraine due to ongoing conflict in the region, including sanctions prohibiting the sale of certain wallcover into Russia. Currency translation was unfavorable $12.0 million.

Composite Fibers had operating income for the second quarter of $5.8 million compared with $11.1 million operating income in the second quarter of 2021. Lower shipments and market-related downtime, primarily in our Dresden facility, negatively impacted results by $6.4 million. Higher selling prices and energy surcharges of $14.4 million fell $2.5 million short of fully recovering continued inflation in energy, raw material and freight of $16.9 million. The impact of currency and related hedging positively impacted earnings by $3.6 million, mainly driven by weakening of the British Pound.

Airlaid Materials

  Three months ended June 30,
Dollars in thousands  2022   2021  Change
         
Tons shipped(metric)  40,681   34,315   6,366 18.6%
Net sales $143,708  $103,313  $40,395 39.1%
Operating income  11,944   8,431   3,513 41.7%
Operating margin  8.3%  8.2%    

Airlaid Materials’ net sales increased $40.4 million in the year-over-year comparison driven by the Mount Holly acquisition, higher shipments in all major product categories, and higher selling prices from cost-pass-through arrangements with customers. Shipments were 18.6% higher driven by strong growth in the wipes, tabletop, and hygiene product categories. Currency translation was $8.9 million unfavorable.

Airlaid Materials’ second quarter operating income of $11.9 million was $3.5 million higher when compared to the second quarter of 2021. Higher shipments positively impacted results by $3.9 million. Selling price increases and energy surcharges of $18.0 million fully offset higher raw material and energy costs which improved results by $0.8 million. Operations were slightly favorable by $0.3 million as higher production was mostly offset by general inflationary pressures. The impact of currency and related hedging negatively impacted earnings by $1.5 million due to a weakening Euro.

Spunlace

  Three months ended June 30,
Dollars in thousands  2022   2021 Change
         
Tons shipped(metric)  19,358     19,358   
Net sales $96,917  $ $96,917  $
Operating loss  (1,808)    (1,808)  
Operating margin  (1.9)%      

Spunlace had an operating loss of $1.8 million in the second quarter compared with a loss of $1.6 million in the first quarter of 2022. Shipments for the second quarter were approximately 7% lower compared to first quarter primarily due to supply chain disruptions affecting raw material availability, thereby reducing production and shipments, which unfavorably impacted results by $0.9 million. Higher raw material and energy costs unfavorably impacted earnings by $5.4 million while higher selling prices and energy surcharges improved earnings by $3.6 million. Operations, foreign exchange and other costs were favorable $2.5 million mainly driven by progress with our integration cost reduction efforts.

Other Financial Information

The amount of operating expense not allocated to a reporting segment in the Segment Financial Information totaled $7.0 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared with $11.4 million in the same period a year ago. Excluding the items identified to present “adjusted earnings,” unallocated expenses for the second quarter of 2022 increased $1.3 million compared to the second quarter of 2021.

In the second quarter of 2022, our pre-tax income from continuing operations totaled $0.8 million and we recorded an income tax provision of $3.3 million. On adjusted pre-tax income of $1.6 million, the income tax expense was $3.2 million in the second quarter of 2022, which primarily related to the tax provision for foreign jurisdictions, reserves for uncertain tax positions, and valuation allowances for domestic jurisdiction losses for which no tax benefit could be recognized. The comparable amounts in the same quarter of 2021 were adjusted pre-tax income of $12.0 million and income tax expense of $4.0 million, respectively.

Reconciliation of GAAP Financial Information to Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release includes a measure of earnings before the effects of certain specifically identified items, which is referred to as adjusted earnings, a non-GAAP measure. The Company uses non-GAAP adjusted earnings to supplement the understanding of its consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP adjusted earnings is meant to present the financial performance of the Company’s core operations, which consist of the production and sale of engineered materials. Management and the Company’s Board of Directors use non-GAAP adjusted earnings to evaluate the performance of the Company’s fundamental business in relation to prior periods and established business plans. For purposes of determining adjusted earnings, the following items are excluded:

  • Strategic initiatives. These adjustments primarily reflect professional and legal fees incurred directly related to evaluating and executing certain strategic initiatives including costs associated with acquisitions, related integrations and charges incurred to step-up acquired inventory to fair-value.
  • Corporate headquarters relocation. These adjustments reflect costs incurred in connection with the strategic relocation of the Company’s corporate headquarters to Charlotte, NC. The costs are primarily related to employee relocation costs and exit costs at the former corporate headquarters.
  • Cost optimization actions. These adjustments reflect charges incurred in connection with initiatives to optimize the cost structure of the Company, improve efficiencies or other objectives. Such actions may include asset rationalization, headcount reductions or similar actions. These adjustments, which have occurred at various times in the past, are irregular in timing and relate to specific identified programs to reduce or optimize the cost structure of a particular operating segment or the corporate function.
  • Goodwill and Other Asset Impairment Charge. This adjustment represents a non-cash charge recorded to reduce the carrying amount of certain long-lived assets, intangible assets and goodwill of our Dresden facility and the Composite Fibers reporting segment. The impairment was directly related to the adverse impact of the Russia/Ukraine military conflict on our projected revenue and EBITDA.
  • Russia / Ukraine conflict charges. This adjustment represents a non-cash charge recorded to reduce the carrying amount of accounts receivable and inventory directly related to the Russia/Ukraine military conflict.
  • Timberland sales and related costs. These adjustments exclude gains from the sales of timberlands as these items are not considered to be part of our core business, ongoing results of operations or cash flows. These adjustments are irregular in timing and amount and may benefit our operating results.
  • Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act 2020. This adjustment reflects taxes recorded in connection with passage of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES”) related to provisions that modified the “net operating loss” provisions of previous law to allow certain losses to be carried back five years.

Unlike net income determined in accordance with GAAP, non-GAAP adjusted earnings does not reflect all charges and gains recorded by the Company for the applicable period and, therefore, does not present a complete picture of the Company’s results of operations for the respective period. However, non-GAAP adjusted earnings provide a measure of how the Company’s core operations are performing, which management believes is useful to investors because it allows comparison of such operations from period to period. Non-GAAP adjusted earnings should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
