  • 10% dividend increase to $0.11 per share

Insights

MTI delivered a robust Q3 with several positive developments. Record Q3 operating income of $79M excluding special items represents a 3% YoY increase and strong 15.1% operating margin. The Consumer & Specialties segment showed particular strength with 9% operating income growth and significant margin expansion of 170 basis points.

The new $200M share repurchase program, 10% dividend increase and completion of the previous $75M buyback demonstrate strong capital return commitment. However, revenue declined 4% YoY to $525M, with weakness in commercial construction and industrial markets impacting the Engineered Solutions segment.

The company's margin expansion strategy and operational efficiency are offsetting volume challenges, positioning MTI well for continued earnings growth despite macro headwinds in certain end markets.

The divergence between MTI's segments reveals important market trends. The Consumer & Specialties segment's growth in pet care and consumer products indicates resilient consumer demand, while Engineered Solutions' weakness reflects broader challenges in commercial construction and industrial markets. The company's ability to expand margins despite volume pressures demonstrates strong pricing power and operational execution.

The increased capital return initiatives suggest management's confidence in sustainable cash flow generation. With 15.1% operating margins and improving cost position, MTI appears well-positioned to weather market volatility while maintaining investment in growth opportunities.

  • Record Third Quarter Operating Income and Earnings Per Share Excluding Special Items
  • Strong Operating Margin and Cash Flow
  • Announced New $200 Million Share Repurchase Program and Completed Previous $75 Million Program
  • Increased Dividend by 10%

NEW YORK, Oct. 24, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Minerals Technologies Inc. (NYSE: MTX) (“MTI” or “the Company”) today reported earnings per share for the third quarter ended September 29, 2024 of $1.45 or $1.51 excluding special items, a third quarter record for MTI.

“We delivered a record third quarter and are on track for another record year. Both operating segments have accomplished a tremendous amount this year, extending their leadership positions in each of their markets, introducing innovative new products, and expanding margins.” said Douglas T. Dietrich, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, “MTI’s financial strength positions us well and provides multiple levers to continue to drive shareholder value.”

Worldwide net sales were $525 million, down 4 percent as reported or 2 percent versus the prior year on an underlying basis.

Reported operating income was $77 million. Operating income excluding special items was $79 million, a third quarter record for MTI, up 3 percent over the prior year and represented 15.1 percent of sales, as the Company continues to execute on its margin expansion strategy.

Third Quarter 2024 Segment Results

Consumer & Specialties segment sales were $280 million in the third quarter, up 1 percent on an underlying basis.

Household & Personal Care sales were $131 million, up 2 percent from the prior year
driven by increased sales in pet care and other consumer-oriented products. Specialty Additives sales were $149 million and grew 1 percent on an underlying basis.

Segment operating income increased by 9% over the prior year to $42 million. Underlying volume and mix, improved input costs and gains in productivity all contributed to higher operating income versus prior year. Operating margin expanded by 170 basis points over the prior year to 14.9% of sales.

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 $244 million in the third quarter, down 5 percent from the prior year.

High-Temperature Technologies sales were $175 million, down 1 percent from the prior year due to softer demand in some industrial end markets. Environmental & Infrastructure sales were $70 million, 12 percent lower than the prior year as a result of continued weakness in commercial construction markets and large-scale environmental project activity.

Segment operating income was $39 million, down 4 percent from the prior year, as the impact from lower volumes was mitigated by improved input costs and pricing. Operating margin improved by 10 basis points versus the prior year to 15.9 percent of sales.

The Engineered Solutions segment provides advanced process technologies and solutions that are designed to improve our customers’ manufacturing processes and projects. This segment includes two product lines: High-Temperature Technologies and Environmental & Infrastructure.  

Dividend Increase and Share Repurchase Program

As previously announced, the Company increased its regular quarterly dividend on the Company’s common stock by 10% to $0.11 per share. The dividend is payable on December 5, 2024, to stockholders of record at the close of business on October 31, 2024.

In addition, MTI’s Board of Directors has authorized a new $200 million share repurchase program. The Company expects to repurchase shares under this authorization as part of its balanced approach to capital allocation.

“Increasing our dividend and authorizing a new repurchase program reflects the Board’s ongoing confidence in MTI’s financial strength as we continue to grow earnings and cash flow," said Douglas T. Dietrich, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “The combination of this increased dividend and new repurchase program demonstrates our commitment to shareholder returns, while maintaining the flexibility to fund inorganic growth opportunities.”

1)For comparative purposes, the quarterly periods ended September 29, 2024, June 30, 2024 and October 1, 2023 each consisted of 91 days. The nine month periods ended September 29, 2024 and October 1, 2023 consisted of 273 days and 274 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 September 29, 2024, June 30, 2024 and October 1, 2023, and the nine month periods ended September 29, 2024 and October 1, 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 third quarter of 2023, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment of assets charge of $71.7 million associated with the Chapter 11 filing of Oldco within the Consumer & Specialties segment.
               
 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 respectively related to severance and other costs.
               
 In the second and third quarters of 2023, the Company recorded incremental litigation costs of $13.9 million and $12.9 million, respectively, to defend against, opportunistically settle, and restore our 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 September 29, 2024, June 30, 2024 and October 1, 2023, and the nine month periods ended September 29, 2024 and October 1, 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.

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 three and nine months ended September 29, 2024. Oldco sales for the three and nine month months ended October 1, 2023 were $13.8 million and $40.6 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 three and nine months ended September 29, 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 September 29, 2024, June 30, 2024 and October 1, 2023, and the nine month periods ended September 29, 2024 and October 1, 2023, constituting a reconciliation to GAAP operating income (loss) 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.
