Mark Douglas, FMC president and CEO said: "FMC's third quarter performance is a testament to our geographic balance, the strength in demand for our technology portfolio and the continued cost reductions to weather the global pandemic. Given robust demand in the third quarter and continuing strong execution, we are raising our 2020 outlook."

The revenue increase was driven by 12 percent contribution from volume and 3 percent from pricing gains, offset by an 8 percent headwind from foreign currencies. In Asia, revenue increased 16 percent year over year, and 19 percent excluding FX. Volume growth in India, Australia, Pakistan and Indonesia was partially offset by FX headwinds. Latin America sales grew 1 percent year over year, and 18 percent excluding FX headwinds. Pricing helped offset some of the FX headwinds, while the underlying volume gains came from strong insecticide sales in Brazil for soybeans and specialty crops. In North America, sales increased 8 percent year over year, driven primarily by strong herbicide and fungicide sales. Sales in EMEA increased 10 percent year over year, due to a particularly strong quarter for insecticides and cereal herbicides.  There was no impact from foreign exchange in EMEA in the quarter.

2020 Outlook2

The company is forecasting full-year 2020 revenue to be in the range of $4.72 billion to $4.78 billion, representing an increase of 3 percent at the midpoint versus 2019. Organic growth is expected to be 9 percent. Full-year adjusted EBITDA is now expected to be in the range of $1.295 billion to $1.315 billion, representing 7 percent year-over-year growth at the midpoint and an increase of $10 million versus prior guidance. 2020 adjusted earnings are now expected to be in the range of $6.45 to $6.57 per diluted share, representing a year-over-year increase of 7 percent at the midpoint and 6 cents higher than prior forecast. Full-year earnings growth drivers include significant volume gains in Latin America and Asia, global pricing and continued cost discipline. The company expects full-year free cash flow to be $475 to $525 million, representing a 66 percent increase year-over-year and $25 million higher than prior guidance at the midpoint.

Fourth Quarter Outlook2

Fourth quarter revenue is expected to be in the range of $1.23 billion to $1.29 billion, representing a 5 percent increase at the midpoint compared to fourth quarter 2019, and organic growth of 10 percent excluding foreign currency headwinds. Adjusted EBITDA is forecasted to be in the range of $335 million to $355 million, representing an 8 percent increase at the midpoint versus Q4 2019. FMC expects adjusted earnings per diluted share to be in the range of $1.70 to $1.82 in the fourth quarter, which at the midpoint would be equal to Q4 2019 due to a large positive tax adjustment in the prior year period. The company expects to deploy approximately $170 million of cash in the quarter. This includes paying $57 million in dividends on October 15, closing the previously announced Fluindapyr acquisition for $65 million in early October, and $50 million in planned share repurchases, which restarted in October.

Statement under the Safe Harbor Provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995:  FMC and its representatives may from time to time make written or oral statements that are "forward-looking" and provide other than historical information, including statements contained in this press release, in FMC's other filings with the SEC, and in reports or letters to FMC stockholders.

In some cases, FMC has identified forward-looking statements by such words or phrases as "will likely result," "is confident that," "expect," "expects," "should," "could," "may," "will continue to," "believe," "believes," "anticipates," "predicts," "forecasts," "estimates," "projects," "potential," "intends" or similar expressions identifying "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including the negative of those words and phrases. Such forward-looking statements are based on management's current views and assumptions regarding future events, future business conditions and the outlook for the company based on currently available information. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results to be materially different from any results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by any forward-looking statement. Currently, one of the most significant factors is the potential adverse effect of the current COVID-19 pandemic on the financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and performance of FMC, which is substantially influenced by the potential adverse effect of the pandemic on FMC's customers and suppliers and the global economy and financial markets. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts us will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others.  Additional factors include, among other things, the risk factors and cautionary statements included within FMC's 2019 Form 10-K and FMC's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2020. Moreover, investors are cautioned to interpret many of these factors as being heightened as a result of the ongoing and numerous adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.

FMC cautions readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by the above cautionary statement. FMC undertakes no obligation, and specifically disclaims any duty, to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances arising after the date on which they were made, except as otherwise required by law.

This press release contains certain "non-GAAP financial terms" which are defined on our website www.fmc.com/investors. In addition, we have also provided on our website reconciliations of non-GAAP terms to the most directly comparable GAAP term.

  1. Organic revenue growth (non-GAAP) excludes the impact of foreign currency changes.
  2. Although we provide forecasts for adjusted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP financial measures), we are not able to forecast the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Certain elements of the composition of the GAAP amounts are not predictable, making it impractical for us to forecast. Such elements include, but are not limited to, restructuring, acquisition charges, and discontinued operations. As a result, no GAAP outlook is provided.

____________________

The Company believes that the Non-GAAP financial measure "Adjusted after-tax earnings from continuing operations attributable to FMC stockholders" and its presentation on a per share basis provides useful information about the Company's operating results to management, investors, and securities analysts. Adjusted earnings excludes the effects of corporate special charges, tax-related adjustments and the results of our discontinued operations. The Company also believes that excluding the effects of these items from operating results allows management and investors to compare more easily the financial performance of its underlying business from period to period.



(a)

Three Months Ended September 30, 2020:




Restructuring and other charges (income) is primarily comprised of charges associated with certain in-flight restructuring programs from the integration of the DuPont Crop Protection Business. These charges include severance, accelerated depreciation on certain fixed assets, and other costs of $6.4 million. The remaining restructuring and other charges (income) primarily includes charges of environmental sites of $4.0 million.




Three Months Ended September 30, 2019:




Restructuring and other charges (income) is comprised of charges associated with the integration of the DuPont Crop Protection Business. These charges include severance and other costs (benefits) of $2.6 million. All other charges were $4.2 million, which includes charges of environmental sites treated as a Corporate charge of $4.1 million.




Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020:




Restructuring and other charges (income) is primarily comprised of charges associated with the integration of the DuPont Crop Protection Business. These charges include severance, accelerated depreciation on certain fixed assets, and other costs of $29.6 million. The remaining restructuring and other charges (income) primarily includes charges of environmental sites of $13.7 million.




Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019:




Restructuring and other charges (income) is comprised of charges associated with the integration of the DuPont Crop Protection Business. These charges include severance, accelerated depreciation on certain fixed assets, and other costs (benefits) of $13.2 million. Additionally, restructuring and other charges (income) includes charges of environmental sites treated as a Corporate charge of $12.3 million and other miscellaneous restructuring and other charges totaling $1.8 million.



(b) 

Our non-operating pension and postretirement charges (income) are defined as those costs (benefits) related to interest, expected return on plan assets, amortized actuarial gains and losses and the impacts of any plan curtailments or settlements. These are excluded from our Adjusted Earnings and are primarily related to changes in pension plan assets and liabilities which are tied to financial market performance and we consider these costs to be outside our operational performance. We continue to include the service cost and amortization of prior service cost in our Adjusted Earnings results noted above. These elements reflect the current year operating costs to our businesses for the employment benefits provided to active employees.



(c) 

Charges related to legal and professional fees associated with acquisition activities. Except for the completion of certain in-flight initiatives, primarily associated with the finalization of our worldwide ERP system, we completed the integration of the DuPont Crop Protection Business as of June 30, 2020. The transition services agreement is now terminated and the last phase of the ERP system transition went live in November 2020 with a stabilization period that will go into the first quarter of 2021. We anticipate remaining expense of approximately $15 million to $20 million for the completion of these defined in-flight initiatives during the remaining time period.

Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 and 2019




Discontinued operations, net of income taxes include, in periods up to its separation on March 1, 2019, the results of FMC Lithium, including separation-related costs, as well as provisions, net of recoveries, for environmental liabilities and legal reserves and expenses related to previously discontinued operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we finalized the sale of the first of two parcels of land of our discontinued site in Newark, California. The gain on sale was approximately $21 million, net of tax, and was partially offset by the results of our FMC Lithium business, which was a net loss due to separation-related costs. These events did not recur in the current period.



(f)

We exclude the GAAP tax provision, including discrete items, from the Non-GAAP measure of income, and include a Non-GAAP tax provision based upon the projected annual Non-GAAP effective tax rate. The GAAP tax provision includes certain discrete tax items including, but are not limited to: income tax expenses or benefits that are not related to continuing operating results in the current year; tax adjustments associated with fluctuations in foreign currency remeasurement of certain foreign operations; certain changes in estimates of tax matters related to prior fiscal years; certain changes in the realizability of deferred tax assets and related interim accounting impacts; and changes in tax law. Management believes excluding these discrete tax items assists investors and securities analysts in understanding the tax provision and the effective tax rate related to continuing operating results thereby providing investors with useful supplemental information about FMC's operational performance.

___________________

(1)

The cash provided (required) by operating activities for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 is the calculation of the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 less the previously reported six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

(2)

Adjusted cash from operations is defined as cash provided (required) by operating activities of continuing operations excluding the effects of transaction-related cash flows.

(3)

Free cash flow is defined as Adjusted cash from operations reduced by spending for capital additions and other investing activities as well as legacy and transformation spending. We believe that this Non-GAAP financial measure provides a useful basis for investors and securities analysts about the cash generated by routine business operations, including capital expenditures, in addition to assessing our ability to repay debt, fund acquisitions and return capital to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends. Our use of free cash flow has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of our results under U.S. GAAP.
