Record Quarter Sales of
Balanced Portfolio Serving Diversified End Markets Drove Strong Results
PITTSBURGH, May 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Koppers Holdings Inc. (NYSE: KOP), an integrated global provider of treated wood products, wood treatment chemicals, and carbon compounds, today reported net income attributable to Koppers for the first quarter of 2022 of
Adjusted net income attributable to Koppers and adjusted earnings per share (EPS) were
Consolidated sales of
The Railroad and Utility Products and Services (RUPS) business reported lower sales and profitability than in the prior year period, primarily driven by lower volumes in the utility pole business as well as continued supply chain challenges related to the availability of untreated crossties at acceptable price points.
The Performance Chemicals (PC) segment delivered record first-quarter sales; however, profitability was unfavorably impacted by higher raw material costs, partly offset by price increases implemented globally.
The Carbon Materials and Chemicals (CMC) segment again generated significantly higher sales and strong profitability compared with the prior year quarter, reflecting a favorable pricing environment driven by strong end market demand that continues to trend ahead of raw material cost increases.
President and CEO Leroy Ball said, "I am extremely pleased by our record sales and overall first-quarter performance, which demonstrates our ability to continue to successfully navigate through rapid changes and economic uncertainties. We achieved results beyond our internal expectations, supported by a robust global economy with healthy demand for our CMC products and a favorable pricing environment that continues to outpace increased costs in this segment. PC also had a solid quarter due to robust volumes and pricing, although the strong results were partly offset by higher costs that surpassed price increases in the quarter. As expected, RUPS struggled as hardwood supply continued to be below comparable levels in the prior year period, although we anticipate improvement in the second half of this year."
First Quarter Financial Performance
- Sales for RUPS of
$183.4 million decreased by$8.5 million , or 4.4 percent, compared to sales of$191.9 million in the prior year quarter. Sales decreased from prior year, primarily related to lower volumes of utility poles in the U.S. and Australia, along with lower sales volumes of crossties for both Class I and commercial railroads, partly offset by pricing increases and improved demand in maintenance-of-way businesses. Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter was$11.6 million , or 6.3 percent, compared with$16.4 million , or 8.5 percent, in the prior year quarter. Profitability was unfavorably impacted by higher raw material and operating costs in the domestic utility pole business. The railroad business experienced lower absorption of fixed costs due to lower tie throughput as a result of decreased purchases of untreated crossties by our Class I customers. - Sales for PC of
$136.4 million , a first-quarter segment record, increased by$12.8 million , or 10.4 percent, compared to sales of$123.6 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in sales was primarily due to price increases implemented globally along with higher demand for preservatives in South America. Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter was$20.9 million , or 15.3 percent, compared with$27.8 million , or 22.5 percent, in the prior year quarter. Profitability was lower than prior year due to higher raw material costs, including scrap copper. - Sales for CMC of
$139.5 million increased by$47.5 million , or 51.6 percent, compared to sales of$92.0 million in the prior year quarter. Excluding an unfavorable impact from foreign currency changes of$5.3 million , sales increased by$52.8 million , or 57.4 percent, from the prior year quarter. Sales benefited from higher pricing and volumes for carbon pitch, phthalic anhydride and carbon black feedstock, and higher sales prices for naphthalene. Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter was$20.1 million , or 14.4 percent, compared with$10.4 million , or 11.3 percent, in the prior year quarter. The increase in profitability reflects a favorable demand and pricing environment, partly offset by higher raw material and selling, general and administrative costs. - Net income attributable to Koppers was
$18.8 million , compared to$25.9 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted net income attributable to Koppers was$19.7 million for the first quarter, compared to$22.3 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was$52.6 million , or 11.5 percent, in the first quarter, compared with$55.1 million , or 13.5 percent, in the prior year quarter. - Diluted EPS from continuing operations was
$0.87 , compared to$1.18 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. Adjusted EPS for the quarter was$0.91 , compared with$1.02 for the prior year period. - Capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2022, were
$26.2 million , compared with$24.2 million for the prior year period. Net of insurance proceeds and cash received from asset sales, capital expenditures were$22.0 million for the current year, compared with$19.5 million for the prior year period.
2022 Outlook
Koppers remains committed to expanding and optimizing its business and making continued progress toward its long-term financial goals. After considering global economic conditions as well as the ongoing uncertainty associated with geopolitical and supply chain challenges, Koppers expects 2022 sales of approximately
The effective tax rate for adjusted net income in 2022 is projected to be approximately 32 percent, compared to the tax rate in 2021, excluding certain income tax effects relating to non-recurring items, of 27 percent. The higher 2022 tax rate is primarily due to higher anticipated interest expense deduction disallowances and the mix of income from domestic and foreign subsidiaries. Accordingly, the 2022 adjusted EPS is forecasted to be approximately

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Koppers believes that adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, net debt and net leverage ratio provide information useful to investors in understanding the underlying operational performance of the company, its business and performance trends, and facilitate comparisons between periods and with other corporations in similar industries. The exclusion of certain items permits evaluation and a comparison of results for ongoing business operations, and it is on this basis that Koppers management internally assesses the company's performance. In addition, the Board of Directors and executive management team use adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure under the company's annual incentive plans.
Although Koppers believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance investors' understanding of its business and performance, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP basis financial measures and should be read in conjunction with the relevant GAAP financial measure. Other companies in a similar industry may define or calculate these measures differently than the company, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
See the attached tables for the following reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release: Unaudited Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA; Unaudited Reconciliation of Net Income Attributable to Koppers and Adjusted Net Income; Unaudited Reconciliation of Diluted Earnings Per Share and Adjusted Earnings Per Share; Unaudited Reconciliation of Total Debt to Net Debt and Net Leverage Ratio; and Unaudited Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA On A Latest Twelve Month Basis.
Koppers does not provide reconciliations of guidance for adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS to comparable GAAP measures, in reliance on the unreasonable efforts exception. Koppers is unable, without unreasonable efforts, to forecast certain items required to develop meaningful comparable GAAP financial measures. These items include, but are not limited to, restructuring and impairment charges, acquisition-related costs, mark-to-market commodity hedging, and LIFO adjustments that are difficult to predict in advance in order to include in a GAAP estimate and may be significant.
