Positive
  • 7% increase in comparable currency neutral sales
  • 22% improvement in comparable adjusted operating EBITDA
  • Raised full-year 2024 sales and adjusted operating EBITDA guidance
  • Projected volume growth of 3% to 5% across most of the portfolio
  • Strong performance in Scent segment with 16% comparable currency neutral sales growth
  • Health & Biosciences segment saw 9% comparable currency neutral sales growth
Negative
  • 1% decrease in reported net sales compared to the prior-year period

  • Net debt to credit adjusted EBITDA ratio at 4.0x

Insights

IFF's Q2 2024 results show a mixed performance with some positive trends. Sales decreased 1% to $2.89 billion, but comparable currency neutral sales grew 7%. The adjusted operating EBITDA of $588 million represents a 22% improvement on a comparable basis.

Key positives include volume growth across most segments and improved productivity. The Scent segment particularly stood out with a 16% currency neutral sales increase. However, the Pharma Solutions segment showed weakness with flat sales and a 19% EBITDA decline.

The company's raised guidance for full-year 2024 is encouraging, now expecting sales of $11.1-11.3 billion and adjusted EBITDA of $2.1-2.17 billion. This suggests management's confidence in continued improvement.

Investors should note the high debt levels, with net debt to credit adjusted EBITDA at 4.0x, which could be a concern if economic conditions worsen.

IFF's Q2 results reflect a gradual recovery in the fragrance and flavor markets. The strong performance in Consumer Fragrance and Flavors suggests improving consumer demand. The 9% growth in Health & Biosciences, including a rebound in Probiotics, indicates positive trends in wellness and nutrition markets.

The company's strategic focus on R&D and commercial efforts in key growth areas is promising. Increased investments in digital systems could enhance operational efficiency and customer engagement. However, the challenges in Functional Ingredients and Pharma Solutions highlight the need for continued portfolio optimization.

The raised volume growth forecast of 3-5% for 2024 suggests cautious optimism about market conditions. However, the expected 3-4% adverse impact from foreign exchange rates on sales growth is a reminder of the ongoing macroeconomic challenges.

Management Commentary

"We are pleased with our performance through the first half of the year, as it represents a marked improvement over our prior year lows," said IFF CEO Erik Fyrwald. "Our efforts to drive volume growth across all our business units, combined with enhanced productivity initiatives, have resulted in solid profit improvements compared to the same period last year. Given our performance to date and our cautiously optimistic outlook for the remainder of the year, we are raising both our sales and adjusted operating EBITDA guidance for the full year."

"We are energized by the progress we are making in the development of our customer focused and innovation led strategy. The entire IFF team is rallying behind this strategic refresh, and while we still have more work to do, we have identified significant growth opportunities. We have started to increase our investments in R&D, commercial efforts, and capacity in flavors, scent, and health and biosciences as well as increasing investments to strengthen our digital systems. At the same time, we are rapidly addressing our functional ingredients business by implementing additional productivity initiatives to improve our margin while we target attractive customer segments. We believe these actions will deliver stronger value creation for our customers, employees, and shareholders over time."

Nourish Segment

  • On a reported basis, second quarter sales were $1.48 billion. On a comparable basis2, currency neutral sales1 increased 4% driven by double-digit growth in Flavors. Functional Ingredients performance continued to improve sequentially and delivered high-single digit volume growth, yet sales declined low-single digits against the year-ago period as a result of pricing actions.
  • Nourish adjusted operating EBITDA1 was $232 million and adjusted operating EBITDA margin1 was 15.7% in the second quarter. On a comparable basis2, adjusted operating EBITDA1 increased 36% led by volume growth, productivity gains and the benefit of the Locust Bean Kernel write-down in the prior year period.

Health & Biosciences Segment

  • On a reported basis, second quarter sales were $558 million. On a comparable basis2, currency neutral sales1 increased 9% driven by strong performances across all businesses. Health also returned to growth driven by a strong performance in Probiotics.
  • Health & Biosciences adjusted operating EBITDA1 was $165 million and adjusted operating EBITDA margin1 was 29.6% in the second quarter. On a comparable basis2, adjusted operating EBITDA1 improved 14% led by volume growth and productivity gains.

Scent Segment

  • On a reported basis, second quarter sales were $603 million. On a comparable basis2, currency neutral sales1 increased 16% led by strong double-digit growth in Consumer Fragrance and Fragrance Ingredients as well as a mid-single digit increase in Fine Fragrance.
  • Scent adjusted operating EBITDA1 was $137 million and adjusted operating EBITDA margin1 was 22.7% in the second quarter. On a comparable basis2, adjusted operating EBITDA1 increased 38% led primarily by volume growth and productivity gains.

Pharma Solutions Segment

  • On a reported basis, second quarter sales were $250 million. On a comparable basis2, currency neutral sales1 were 0% as a return to volume growth was offset by modestly lower pricing.
  • Pharma Solutions adjusted operating EBITDA1 was $54 million and adjusted operating EBITDA margin1 was 21.6% in the second quarter. On a comparable basis2, adjusted operating EBITDA1 declined 19% which was according to plan as volume growth and productivity gains were more than offset primarily by unfavorable mix and one-time items.

Financial Guidance

The Company is increasing its expectations for the full year 2024 and now expects full year 2024 sales to be in the range of $11.1 billion to $11.3 billion versus $10.8 billion to $11.1 billion and adjusted operating EBITDA to be in the range of $2.1 billion to $2.17 billion versus $1.9 billion to $2.1 billion. The Company now expects volume to be 3% to 5% versus 0% to 3%, with improvements across the majority of the portfolio. Pricing is still expected to increase approximately 1%, principally driven by the impact of foreign exchange rate changes in emerging markets where the Company has index pricing to US and/or EURO exchange rates.

Based on current market foreign exchange rates, the Company expects that foreign exchange will have a 3% to 4% adverse impact to sales growth.

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 and integration related costs, gains (losses) on business disposals and regulatory costs.

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 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, 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, impairment of goodwill, gains (losses) on business disposals, loss on assets classified as held for sale, acquisition, divestiture and integration costs, strategic initiatives costs, regulatory costs and other items.

Adjusted EPS ex Amortization excludes the impact of non-operational items including, restructuring and other charges, impairment of goodwill, divestiture and integration costs, (gains) losses on business disposals, loss on assets classified as held for sale, gain on China facility relocation, 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 interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, specified items and non-cash items.

Comparable results for the second 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 and integration costs, gains (losses) on business disposals, and regulatory costs.
