Positive
  • Record earnings per share of $1.65 excluding special items, up 26% year-over-year
  • Record operating income of $85 million excluding special items, up 20% from prior year
  • Strong operating margins at 15.7% of sales, ahead of 2024 targets
  • Consumer & Specialties segment sales up 3% on an underlying basis
  • Engineered Solutions segment operating income up 16% from prior year
Negative
  • Worldwide net sales down 2% as reported
  • Engineered Solutions segment sales down 2% from prior year
  • Environmental & Infrastructure sales down 8% due to slow commercial construction markets
  • $34.2 million in special items, including $30 million provision for BMI OldCo bankruptcy proceeding

As a financial analyst, I find MTI's Q2 2024 results quite impressive. The company reported record earnings per share of $1.65 excluding special items, a 26% increase year-over-year. This significant growth demonstrates strong operational efficiency and effective cost management.

The operating income excluding special items reached a record $85 million, up 20% from last year, with an impressive operating margin of 15.7%. This outperformance against their 2024 targets is a positive indicator of the company's ability to execute its strategy effectively.

However, it's important to note the $34.2 million in special items, including a $30 million provision related to a credit line for BMI OldCo's bankruptcy proceeding. While this doesn't affect the core operational performance, it does impact the reported figures and should be monitored for potential future implications.

The Consumer & Specialties segment showed resilience with 3% underlying growth, while Engineered Solutions saw a slight decline. The strong operating margins in both segments (15.4% and 17.4% respectively) are particularly noteworthy, indicating effective pricing strategies and cost control measures.

Overall, MTI's Q2 results demonstrate robust financial health and operational excellence, positioning the company well for continued growth in diverse markets.

From a market perspective, MTI's Q2 2024 results reveal interesting trends across various industries. The company's balanced portfolio of industrial and consumer businesses appears to be a strategic advantage, offering resilience against market fluctuations.

In the Consumer & Specialties segment, the 1% growth in Household & Personal Care despite temporary volume reductions in pet care suggests strong underlying demand for consumer products. The 4% underlying growth in Specialty Additives indicates increasing adoption of MTI's technologies in consumer and industrial goods.

The Engineered Solutions segment presents a mixed picture. While High-Temperature Technologies saw slight growth, the 8% decline in Environmental & Infrastructure sales points to challenges in commercial construction and fewer large environmental remediation projects. This could be an early indicator of broader economic trends affecting these sectors.

MTI's ability to maintain strong margins and achieve record results despite these market dynamics demonstrates the company's adaptability and the strength of its diverse product portfolio. The continued demand across multiple markets underscores the value proposition of MTI's core technologies, potentially positioning the company for long-term growth as various industries evolve.

  • Record Earnings Per Share Excluding Special Items
  • Record Operating Income Excluding Special Items
  • Strong Operating Margins Ahead of 2024 Targets
  • Released 16th Annual Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability Report 

NEW YORK, July 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Minerals Technologies Inc. (NYSE: MTX) (“MTI” or “the Company”) today reported earnings per share for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024 of $0.61 or $1.65 excluding special items, a record for MTI and an increase of 26% over prior year.

“We continue to deliver record results with margins ahead of target. Healthy demand for our products and solutions across the majority of our markets highlights the value we deliver to our customers through our core technologies. Our balanced portfolio of industrial and consumer businesses is operating as expected and continues to offer broad-based long-term growth opportunities,” said Douglas T. Dietrich, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. 

Worldwide net sales were $541 million, 1 percent higher versus the prior year on an underlying basis or down 2 percent as reported. Underlying growth in the Consumer & Specialties segment offset lower sales in Engineered Solutions.

Reported operating income was $51 million. Operating income excluding special items was $85 million, a record for MTI, up 20 percent over the prior year and represented 15.7 percent of sales. The strong second quarter performance was driven by favorable volume and mix, productivity improvements and a disciplined approach to pricing and cost control.

The Company recorded special items of $34.2 million in the second quarter, including a provision of $30 million related to a committed line of credit to BMI OldCo (f/k/a Barretts Minerals Inc.) to support the continued progress of its bankruptcy proceeding and associated mediation.

Second Quarter 2024 Segment Results

Consumer & Specialties segment sales were $284 million in the second quarter, up 3 percent on an underlying basis.

Household & Personal Care sales were $127 million, up 1 percent from the prior year. Growth in several consumer-oriented products offset temporarily lower volumes in pet care due to some product change-over timing. Specialty Additives sales were $158 million and grew 4 percent on an underlying basis.

Segment operating income was $44 million, a 29 percent improvement over the prior year driven by higher volumes, improved input costs and strong operating performance. Operating margin was 15.4 percent, a 370 basis point improvement over the prior year.

The Consumer & Specialties segment provides technologically enhanced products to consumer-driven end markets, including mineral-to-market household products, as well as specialty additives that become functional components in a variety of consumer and industrial goods. This segment includes two product lines: Household & Personal Care and Specialty Additives. 

Engineered Solutions segment sales were $257 million in the second quarter, down 2 percent from the prior year.

High-Temperature Technologies sales were $185 million, up 1 percent from the prior year. Environmental & Infrastructure sales were $72 million, 8 percent lower than the prior year due to slow commercial construction markets combined with fewer large environmental remediation projects.

Segment operating income was $45 million, up 16 percent from the prior year, driven by higher volumes and favorable product mix in High-Temperature Technologies. Operating margin was very strong at 17.4 percent of sales, a 270 basis point improvement over prior year.

1) For comparative purposes, the quarterly periods ended June 30, 2024, March 31, 2024 and July 2, 2023 each consisted of 91 days. The six month periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023 consisted of 182 days and 183 days, respectively.  

2) To supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the following is a presentation of the Company's non-GAAP earnings per share, excluding special items, for the quarterly periods ended June 30, 2024, March 31, 2024 and July 2, 2023, and the six month periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023 and a reconciliation to reported earnings per share for such periods. The Company's management believes these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance as inclusion of such special items are not indicative of the ongoing operating results and thereby affect the comparability of results between periods. The Company believes inclusion of these non-GAAP measures also provides consistency in its financial reporting and facilitates investors' understanding of historic operating trends.

In the second quarter of 2024, the Company recorded a $30.0 million provision for credit losses relating to the Company's committed line of credit to facilitate BMI Oldco Inc.'s (f/k/a Barretts Minerals Inc.) ("Oldco") bankruptcy proceeding. These losses are not currently tax deductible as they are treated as an equity contribution for tax purposes. The current expected credit loss may become fully deductible in a future period. The timing of such deductibility is dependent on developments in the bankruptcy proceedings.

In the second quarter of 2023, the Company initiated a restructuring and cost savings program to further streamline our cost structure as a result of organizational efficiencies gained through our 2023 resegmentation. Accordingly, the Company recorded restructuring and other charges of $6.6 million related to severance and other costs.

In the second quarter of 2023, the Company recorded incremental litigation costs of $13.9 million to defend against, opportunistically settle and restore the reserve for claims associated with certain talc products from Oldco.

3) Free cash flow is defined as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures. The following is a presentation of the Company's non-GAAP free cash flow for the quarterly periods ended June 30, 2024, March 31, 2024 and July 2, 2023, and the six month periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023 and a reconciliation to cash flow from operations for such periods. The Company's management believes this non-GAAP measure provides meaningful supplemental information as management uses this measure to evaluate the Company's ability to maintain capital assets, satisfy current and future obligations, repurchase stock, pay dividends and fund future business opportunities. Free cash flow is not a measure of cash available for discretionary expenditures since the Company has certain non-discretionary obligations such as debt service that are not deducted from the measure. The Company's definition of free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

4) To supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the following is a presentation of the Company's year over year sales growth, excluding the sales of Oldco for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, constituting a reconciliation to GAAP sales growth set forth below. On October 2, 2023, Oldco filed for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and as such the results of Oldco are not included in the Company's consolidated results for the first half of 2024. Oldco sales for the three and six month periods ending July 2, 2023 were $13.7 million and $26.8 million, respectively. The Company's management feels this non-GAAP measure provides meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and facilitates investors' understanding of sales trends for the first half of 2024.

To supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the following is a presentation of the Company's non-GAAP operating income. This excludes special items (set forth in the above table), for the quarterly periods ended June 30, 2024, March 31, 2024 and July 2, 2023, and the six month periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, constituting a reconciliation to GAAP operating income set forth above. The Company's management believe these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance as inclusion of such special items are not indicative of ongoing operating results and thereby affect the comparability of results between periods. The Company believes inclusion of these non-GAAP measures also provides consistency in its financial reporting and facilitates investors' understanding of historic operating trends.
