Management Commentary

“We delivered first quarter 2023 results in line or ahead of our expectations amidst a challenging operating environment,” said IFF CEO Frank Clyburn. “Our team successfully navigated soft end-market demand and customer inventory destocking as they executed on our priorities to deliver our financial commitments. As we look ahead to the balance of the year, we continue to believe our volume performance will improve, yet acknowledge that market conditions remain uncertain. As such, we remain steadfast in our focus to control what we can control as we solidify profitability, maximize cash flow and drive portfolio optimization to generate strong returns for our shareholders.”

First Quarter 2023 Consolidated Financial Results

• Reported net sales for the first quarter were $3.03 billion, flat versus the prior-year period. On a comparable basis², currency neutral sales increased 1% versus the prior-year period, led by Scent and Pharma Solutions.
• Income before taxes on a reported basis for the first quarter was $14 million. Adjusted operating EBITDA for the first quarter was $503 million. On a comparable basis², currency neutral adjusted operating EBITDA declined 19% versus the prior-year period, as pricing and productivity gains were more than offset by lower volumes and unfavorable manufacturing absorption related to the Company's inventory reduction program.
• Reported earnings per share (EPS) for the first quarter was $(0.04). Adjusted EPS excluding amortization was $0.87 per diluted share.
• Cash flows from operations at the end of the first quarter was $127 million, and free cash flow defined as cash flows from operations less capital expenditures totaled $(48) million. Net debt to credit adjusted EBITDA at the end of the first quarter was 4.6x.

• On a reported basis, first quarter sales were $1.65 billion. On a comparable basis² , currency neutral sales was flat as growth in Food Design and in Flavors was offset by declines in Ingredients.
• Nourish adjusted operating EBITDA was $208 million and adjusted operating EBITDA margin was 12.6% in the first quarter.

• Health & Biosciences adjusted operating EBITDA was $131 million and adjusted operating EBITDA margin was 25.5% in the first quarter. On a comparable basis², currency neutral adjusted operating EBITDA declined 19% as price increases and productivity gains were more than offset by lower volumes and unfavorable manufacturing absorption related to the Company's inventory reduction program.

Scent Segment

• On a reported basis, first quarter sales were $608 million. On a comparable basis^2, currency neutral sales increased 8% led by double-digit growth in Fine Fragrance and Consumer Fragrance.
• Scent adjusted operating EBITDA was $105 million and adjusted operating EBITDA margin was 17.3% in the first quarter. On a comparable basis², currency neutral adjusted operating EBITDA increased 1% led by volume growth, pricing and productivity gains.

• Pharma Solutions adjusted operating EBITDA was $59 million and adjusted operating EBITDA margin was 23.3% in the first quarter.

Financial Guidance

The Company expects full year 2023 sales to be approximately $12.3 billion (previously $12.5 billion), with an expected full year 2023 adjusted operating EBITDA of approximately $2.34 billion (no change). The change in sales guidance reflects energy and raw material pass-through price adjustments as well as unfavorable impact from foreign exchange.

The Company's full year guidance excludes approximately $335 million (previously $350 million) in sales and approximately $55 million (previously $50 million) in adjusted operating EBITDA for the anticipated Savory Solutions and Flavor Specialty Ingredients divestitures. The change in portfolio impact now reflects the anticipated close of Savory Solutions in June 2023 (previously May 2023) and the anticipated close of Flavor Specialty Ingredients in September 2023.

Comparable currency neutral sales growth for 2023 is expected to be approximately 5% (previously approximately 6%). On a comparable basis, full year 2022 sales were approximately $11.885 billion (previous $11.875 billion), excluding approximately $555 million (previously $565 million) of sales related to the impact of divestitures and acquisitions in current and prior year periods.

Comparable currency neutral adjusted operating EBITDA growth for 2023 is expected to be approximately flat versus prior year. On a comparable basis, full year 2022 adjusted operating EBITDA was approximately $2.37 billion (no change), excluding approximately $85 million (no change) of adjusted operating EBITDA related to the impact of divestitures and acquisitions in current and prior year periods.

Based on current market foreign exchange rates, the Company expects that foreign exchange will have approximately 1% (previously 0%) adverse impact to sales growth and approximately a 3% (previously 1%) adverse impact to adjusted operating EBITDA growth in 2023.

The Company issues financial guidance for the second quarter 2023, where it expects sales to be approximately $3.0 billion to $3.1 billion and adjusted operating EBITDA of approximately $540 million to $590 million.

The Company cannot reconcile its expected adjusted operating EBITDA without unreasonable effort because certain items that impact net income and other reconciling metrics are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted at this time. These items include but are not limited to acquisition, divestiture (including the anticipated Savory Solutions and Flavor Specialty Ingredients divestitures) and integration related costs, gains (losses) on business disposals, and regulatory costs.

The foregoing list of important factors does not include all such factors, nor necessarily present them in order of importance. In addition, you should consult other disclosures made by the Company (such as in our other filings with the SEC or in company press releases) for other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected by the Company. Please refer to Part I.

We intend our forward-looking statements to speak only as of the time of such statements and do not undertake or plan to update or revise them as more information becomes available or to reflect changes in expectations, assumptions or results. We can give no assurance that such expectations or forward-looking statements will prove to be correct. An occurrence of, or any material adverse change in, one or more of the risk factors or risks and uncertainties referred to in this press release or included in our other periodic reports filed with the SEC could materially and adversely impact our operations and our future financial results. Any public statements or disclosures made by us following this press release that modify or impact any of the forward-looking statements contained in or accompanying this press release will be deemed to modify or supersede such outlook or other forward-looking statements in or accompanying this press release.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We provide in this press release non-GAAP financial measures, including: (i) comparable currency neutral sales; (ii) adjusted operating EBITDA and comparable currency neutral adjusted operating EBITDA; (iii) adjusted operating EBITDA margin; (iv) adjusted EPS ex amortization; (v) free cash flow; and (vi) net debt to credit adjusted EBITDA.

Our non-GAAP financial measures are defined below.

Currency Neutral metrics eliminate the effects that result from translating non-U.S. currencies to U.S. dollars. We calculate currency neutral numbers by translating current year invoiced sale amounts at the exchange rates used for the corresponding prior year period. We use currency neutral results in our analysis of subsidiary or segment performance. We also use currency neutral numbers when analyzing our performance against our competitors.

Adjusted operating EBITDA and adjusted operating EBITDA margin exclude depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, other (expense) income, net, and certain non-recurring or unusual items that are not part of recurring operations such as, restructuring and other charges, acquisition, divestiture, and integration related costs, gains (losses) on business disposals, strategic initiatives costs, regulatory costs, and other items.

Adjusted EPS ex Amortization excludes the impact of non-operational items including, restructuring and other charges, acquisition, divestiture, and integration related costs, gains (losses) on business disposals, strategic initiatives costs, regulatory costs, and other items that are not a part of recurring operations.

Free Cash Flow is operating cash flow (i.e. cash flow from operations) less capital expenditures.

Net debt to credit adjusted EBITDA is the leverage ratio used in our credit agreements and defined as net debt (which is debt for borrowed money less cash and cash equivalents) divided by the trailing 12-month credit adjusted EBITDA. Credit adjusted EBITDA is defined as income (loss) before income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, specified items and non-cash items.

Comparable results for the first quarter exclude the impact of divestitures and acquisitions.

These non-GAAP measures are intended to provide additional information regarding our underlying operating results and comparable year-over-year performance. Such information is supplemental to information presented in accordance with GAAP and is not intended to represent a presentation in accordance with GAAP. In discussing our historical and expected future results and financial condition, we believe it is meaningful for investors to be made aware of and to be assisted in a better understanding of, on a period-to-period comparable basis, financial amounts both including and excluding these identified items, as well as the impact of exchange rate fluctuations. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of the Company’s results under GAAP and may not be comparable to other companies’ calculation of such metrics.

The Company cannot reconcile its expected adjusted operating EBITDA under "Financial Guidance" without unreasonable effort because certain items that impact net income and other reconciling metrics are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted at this time. These items include but are not limited to acquisition, divestiture (including the anticipated Savory Solutions and Flavor Specialty Ingredients divestitures) and integration related costs, gains (losses) on business disposals, and regulatory costs.
