Insights

Financial Analyst

Mativ's Q2 2024 results show mixed signals. While sales decreased 0.5% year-over-year to $523.8 million, there was a 4.7% sequential increase from Q1 2024. The company reported a GAAP loss of $1.4 million, but adjusted income was $19.0 million. Adjusted EBITDA grew 13% year-over-year to $66.6 million, with margin expansion of 150 basis points.

The Filtration & Advanced Materials segment saw a 3% sales decline but maintained a strong adjusted EBITDA margin of 20.5%. The Sustainable & Adhesive Solutions segment showed improvement with a 0.8% sales increase and significant adjusted EBITDA growth of 28%.

Mativ's focus on cost reduction and operational efficiency is evident, but challenges remain with high interest expenses and debt levels. The upcoming refinancing of 2026 senior unsecured notes will be important for the company's financial stability.

Market Research Analyst

Mativ's Q2 results reflect a company in transition, two years post-merger. The focus on value creation through customer service, complexity reduction and cost-cutting is starting to show results, particularly in adjusted EBITDA growth and margin expansion.

Key market trends influencing Mativ include:

• Input cost deflation, leading to lower selling prices but improved margins
• Volume growth across all end-markets in the SAS segment, indicating potential market share gains
• Continued demand for filtration media and components, despite slight revenue decline in the FAM segment

The company's ability to maintain strong adjusted EBITDA margins in both segments (20.5% for FAM and 14.6% for SAS) suggests resilience in challenging market conditions. However, the high debt level and upcoming refinancing needs could impact future growth strategies and market positioning.

Corporate Strategy Consultant

Mativ's Q2 2024 results demonstrate progress in its post-merger transformation strategy. The company's focus on agility, lean operations and scalability is yielding positive outcomes, particularly in adjusted EBITDA growth and margin expansion.

Key strategic moves include:

• Divestiture of non-strategic businesses, enhancing focus on core competencies
• Site consolidation and organizational restructuring, driving operational efficiency
• Systems integration, likely improving decision-making and resource allocation

The company's ability to deliver strong adjusted EBITDA improvement year-over-year for the remaining quarters of 2024 will be crucial. However, the high debt level and upcoming refinancing needs may constrain strategic flexibility. Mativ's success will depend on balancing operational improvements with prudent financial management and targeted growth initiatives in high-margin segments.

ALPHARETTA, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Mativ Holdings, Inc. ("Mativ" or the "Company") (NYSE: MATV) reported earnings results for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Mativ Second Quarter 2024 Highlights (Continuing Operations)

• Sales of $523.8 million increased 4.7% sequentially versus Q1 2024 reflecting volume improvement, and decreased 0.5% versus the prior year

• Adjusted EBITDA was up 45% sequentially and up 13% versus the prior year, primarily driven by favorable relative net selling price vs. input cost performance, increased volumes and improved distribution and manufacturing performance, partially offset by less favorable mix and less favorable SG&A expenses.

Management Commentary

Chief Executive Officer Julie Schertell commented, "We are pleased to report that our second quarter results reflect strong adjusted EBITDA and margin growth, both on a year-over-year basis, as well as sequentially. This was driven by strong relative net selling price vs. input cost performance, increased volume and improved operating performance. We are confident in our ability to deliver strong adjusted EBITDA improvement on a year-over-year basis for the remaining quarters of 2024.”

Ms. Schertell concluded, "July marked the two-year anniversary of the merger of SWM and Neenah to create Mativ. The past two years have been marked with significant accomplishments in transforming Mativ into an enterprise that is more agile and well-positioned for the future. These actions included divesting non-strategic businesses, closing and consolidating sites, integrating our systems, and restructuring our organization to be more lean, adaptable and scalable. As we head into our third year as a company, we continue to be relentlessly focused on delivering value to our customers, aggressively reducing complexity and costs, and delivering adjusted EBITDA and margin improvements. We are pleased with our execution and look forward to creating incremental value for our customers and shareholders.”

Mativ Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results (Continuing Operations)

Note: The Financial Results below reflect consolidated Mativ results presented in our revised segment reporting structure in the current and prior year period. See the supplemental tables titled Business Segment Reporting From Continuing Operations for additional information regarding the revised segment reporting structure.

Filtration & Advanced Materials (FAM)	Three Months Ended June 30,
(in millions; unaudited)	2024			2023			Change				2024			2023
Net Sales	$	206.4		$	211.7		$	(5.3	)
GAAP Operating Profit & Margin %	$	25.2		$	28.5		$	(3.3	)		12.2	%		13.5	%
Adjusted EBITDA & Margin %	$	42.3		$	44.3		$	(2.0	)		20.5	%		20.9	%

Filtration & Advanced Materials (FAM) segment sales, comprised primarily of filtration media and components, advanced films, coating and converting solutions, and extruded mesh products, were $206.4 million, up 2% sequentially versus Q1 2024, and down 3% versus the prior year period, as flat volumes were more than offset by lower selling prices due to input cost deflation.

GAAP Operating Profit in 2024 included $1.2 million of restructuring and impairment expenses primarily related to organizational realignment and footprint rationalization. Adjusted EBITDA (see non-GAAP reconciliations) increased $9.1 million (or 27%) sequentially and adjusted EBITDA margin of 20.5% increased 410 basis points sequentially. Adjusted EBITDA decreased 5% versus prior year as favorable relative net selling price vs. input cost performance and reduced manufacturing cost were primarily offset by lower volume/mix and less favorable SG&A expenses.

Sustainable & Adhesive Solutions (SAS)	Three Months Ended June 30,
(in millions; unaudited)	2024			2023			Change			2024			2023
Net Sales	$	317.4		$	314.8		$	2.6
GAAP Operating Profit & Margin %	$	15.6		$	15.3		$	0.3		4.9	%		4.9	%
Adjusted EBITDA & Margin %	$	46.2		$	36.2		$	10.0		14.6	%		11.5	%

Sustainable & Adhesive Solutions (SAS) segment sales, comprised primarily of tapes, labels, liners, specialty paper, packaging and healthcare solutions, of $317.4 million were up 7% sequentially versus Q1 2024, and up 0.8% versus the prior year period, as higher volumes across all end-markets more than offset lower selling prices due to input cost deflation.

GAAP Operating Profit in 2024 included $10.1 million in restructuring, restructuring related, and impairment expenses primarily related to organizational realignment and footprint rationalization. Adjusted EBITDA (see non-GAAP reconciliations) increased $13.9 million (or 43%) sequentially and adjusted EBITDA margin of 14.6% increased 370 basis points sequentially. Adjusted EBITDA increased $10.0 million (or 28%) compared to the prior year period, driven by strong favorable relative net selling price vs. input cost performance, higher volumes, and improved distribution costs partially offset by unfavorable mix and less favorable SG&A expenses. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 14.6% increased 310 basis points versus the prior year.

Unallocated	Three Months Ended June 30,
(in millions; unaudited)		2024				2023			Change				2024			2023
GAAP Operating Expense & % of Sales	$	(30.3	)		$	(33.4	)		$	3.1			(5.8	)%		(6.3	)%
Adjusted EBITDA & % of Sales	$	(21.9	)		$	(21.4	)		$	(0.5	)		(4.2	)%		(4.1	)%

Adjusted unallocated expenses (EBITDA) (see non-GAAP reconciliations) were in line with prior year. GAAP operating expenses in 2024 included $2.1 million in organizational realignment and integration costs, $1.7 million of EP divestiture expenses, and $0.3 million in restructuring, restructuring related, impairment, and other expenses related to footprint rationalization.

Interest expense was $18.4 million versus $16.4 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to higher average interest rates and higher average balances on the floating portion of our outstanding debt in 2024.

Other expense, net of $1.1 million decreased $1.5 million compared with the prior year $2.6 million.

Tax rate was 84.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The unusually high tax rate was driven by a ($5.2) million recognition of a deferred tax asset due to change in a tax position. Excluding the impact of this deferred tax benefit and other non-GAAP adjustments, the Company's tax rate was 14.1%.

• Non-GAAP Adjustments reflect items included in GAAP operating profit, income, and EPS, but excluded from adjusted results (see non-GAAP reconciliation tables for additional details). The most significant adjustments to the second quarter 2024 results were as follows:
• $0.22 per share of purchase accounting expenses (purchase accounting expenses reflect primarily ongoing non-cash intangible asset amortizations associated with mergers and acquisitions)
• $0.19 per share of restructuring, restructuring related, impairment, and other expenses

Cash Flow & Debt

Year-to-date 2024 cash provided by operating activities was $33.1 million. Capital spending and software costs totaled $21.9 million. Working capital was a $3.6 million use of cash due to an increase in accounts receivable, partially offset by an increase in accounts payable.

Total debt was $1,136.4 million as of June 30, 2024 and total cash was $133.4 million resulting in net debt of $1,003.0 million. Total liquidity was approximately $436 million, consisting of $133 million of cash and $303 million of revolver availability. The Company's debt matures on a staggered basis between 2026 and 2028. One of the top priorities is addressing the upcoming maturity of the 2026 senior unsecured notes which will be redeemable at par starting on October 1, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating various debt refinancing strategies for its capital structure to refinance those notes in the debt capital markets given current market conditions.

Dividend & Share Repurchases

On August 7, 2024 the Company announced its next quarterly cash dividend of $0.10 per share payable on September 20, 2024 to stockholders of record as of August 23, 2024.

During the second quarter, the company did not repurchase shares. The Company intends to repurchase shares periodically and opportunistically to offset dilution due to stock compensation.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain financial measures and comments contained in this press release exclude restructuring and impairment expenses, certain purchase accounting adjustments related to prior acquisitions, organizational realignment and integration costs, divestiture costs, interest expense, stock compensation expense, inventory step-up expense, the effect of income tax provisions and other tax impacts, capital spending, capitalized software costs, cloud-based software costs and depreciation and amortization. This press release also provides certain information regarding the Company's financial results excluding currency impacts. This information estimates the impact of changes in foreign currency rates on the translation of the Company's current financial results as compared to the applicable comparable period and is derived by translating the current local currency results into U.S. Dollars based upon the foreign currency exchange rates for the applicable comparable period. Financial measures which exclude or include these items have not been determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) and are therefore "non-GAAP" financial measures. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most closely analogous measure determined in accordance with GAAP are included in the financial schedules attached to this release.

The Company believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures in addition to the related GAAP measures provides investors with greater transparency on the information used by the Company’s management in its financial and operational decision-making. Management also believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide additional insight for analysts and investors in evaluating the Company’s financial and operational performance in the same way that management evaluates the Company's financial performance. Management believes that providing this information enables investors to better understand the Company’s operating performance and financial condition. These non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated or presented in accordance with, and are not intended to be considered in isolation or as alternatives or substitutes for, or superior to, financial measures prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, and should be read only in conjunction with the Company's financial measures prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures used in this release may be different from the measures used by other companies.

MATIV HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES BUSINESS SEGMENT REPORTING FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS (in millions) (Unaudited)   NOTE REGARDING SEGMENT REPORTING AND COMPARABILITY   The Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K/A on December 6, 2023 to reflect the impact of the Engineered Papers (“EP”) Divestiture as discontinued operations and to present certain Non-GAAP financial measures quarterly on a comparable basis beginning with the first quarter of 2022 (the "EP Supplemental Financial Information"). The Company filed a Current Report in form 8-K on May 8, 2024 to update the presentation of such Non-GAAP financial measures previously disclosed in the EP Supplemental Financial Information in order to reflect the changes to the Company's reportable segments discussed below and enhance the Company's shareholders' ability to evaluate Company operating performance. The EP business is presented as a discontinued operation for all periods and certain prior period amounts were retrospectively revised to reflect these changes.   As part of the organizational realignment effective during the first quarter of 2024, we have reorganized into two new reportable segments: (1) Filtration & Advanced Materials ("FAM") focused primarily on filtration media and components, advanced films, coating and converting solutions, and extruded mesh products, and (2) Sustainable & Adhesive Solutions ("SAS"), focused primarily on tapes, labels, liners, specialty paper, packaging and healthcare solutions. The change in reportable segments reflects the realignment of segment level management and the related internal review of our operating segments. The prior period segment results have been revised to align with our current segment reporting structure and is presented on a continuing operations basis.
