Minerals Technologies (NYSE: MTX) reported a Q1 2025 loss of $4.51 per share, primarily due to establishing a $215 million reserve for its subsidiary BMI OldCo's Chapter 11 case. Excluding special items, earnings were $1.14 per share.

Q1 worldwide net sales declined 8% to $492 million, with foreign exchange having a 2% unfavorable impact. The company experienced slower demand across both segments, with Consumer & Specialties sales down 10% to $268 million and Engineered Solutions sales falling 6% to $224 million.

MTX has initiated a $10 million cost savings program, primarily through workforce reductions, with full run-rate savings expected by early 2026. The company recorded a $5.5 million charge for severance costs. Despite challenging market conditions in January and February, MTX saw significant sales improvement in March, which management expects to continue through Q2 2025.

Minerals Technologies (NYSE: MTX) ha riportato una perdita di 4,51 dollari per azione nel primo trimestre 2025, principalmente a causa dell'accantonamento di una riserva di 215 milioni di dollari per la causa Chapter 11 della sua controllata BMI OldCo. Escludendo voci straordinarie, l'utile per azione è stato di 1,14 dollari.

Le vendite nette globali del primo trimestre sono diminuite dell'8%, attestandosi a 492 milioni di dollari, con un impatto sfavorevole del cambio valutario del 2%. L'azienda ha registrato una domanda più debole in entrambi i segmenti, con vendite di Consumer & Specialties in calo del 10% a 268 milioni di dollari e vendite di Engineered Solutions in diminuzione del 6% a 224 milioni di dollari.

MTX ha avviato un programma di riduzione dei costi da 10 milioni di dollari, principalmente attraverso riduzioni del personale, con risparmi a regime completi previsti entro i primi mesi del 2026. La società ha contabilizzato un onere di 5,5 milioni di dollari per costi di licenziamento. Nonostante condizioni di mercato difficili a gennaio e febbraio, MTX ha registrato un significativo miglioramento delle vendite a marzo, che la direzione prevede continuerà nel secondo trimestre 2025.

Minerals Technologies (NYSE: MTX) reportó una pérdida de 4,51 dólares por acción en el primer trimestre de 2025, principalmente debido a la constitución de una reserva de 215 millones de dólares para el caso del Capítulo 11 de su subsidiaria BMI OldCo. Excluyendo partidas especiales, las ganancias fueron de 1,14 dólares por acción.

Las ventas netas mundiales del primer trimestre disminuyeron un 8%, alcanzando los 492 millones de dólares, con un impacto desfavorable del tipo de cambio del 2%.

La empresa registró un cargo de 5,5 millones de dólares por costos de indemnización. A pesar de las difíciles condiciones del mercado en enero y febrero, MTX vio una mejora significativa en las ventas en marzo, que la dirección espera que continúe durante el segundo trimestre de 2025.

Minerals Technologies (NYSE: MTX)는 2025년 1분기에 주당 4.51달러 손실을 보고했으며, 이는 주로 자회사 BMI OldCo의 챕터 11 파산신청과 관련해 2억 1,500만 달러의 준비금을 설정한 데 따른 것입니다. 특별 항목을 제외한 주당 순이익은 1.14달러였습니다.

1분기 전 세계 순매출은 8% 감소한 4억 9,200만 달러로, 환율 변동이 2%의 부정적 영향을 미쳤습니다. 소비자 및 특수 제품 부문 매출은 10% 감소한 2억 6,800만 달러, 엔지니어드 솔루션 부문 매출은 6% 감소한 2억 2,400만 달러를 기록하며 수요가 둔화되었습니다.

MTX는 주로 인력 감축을 통해 1,000만 달러 비용 절감 프로그램을 시작했으며, 2026년 초까지 완전한 절감 효과를 기대하고 있습니다. 퇴직 비용으로 550만 달러의 비용을 계상했습니다. 1월과 2월의 어려운 시장 상황에도 불구하고, 3월에는 매출이 크게 개선되었으며 경영진은 2025년 2분기에도 이러한 개선이 지속될 것으로 예상하고 있습니다.

Insights

MTI reports $4.51 per share loss due to $215M bankruptcy reserve; underlying operations challenged with 8% revenue decline despite $1.14 adjusted EPS.

Minerals Technologies Inc. has reported a substantial $4.51 loss per share for Q1 2025, primarily driven by the establishment of a $215 million reserve for talc-related claims connected to its subsidiary BMI OldCo's Chapter 11 case. Excluding special items, earnings were $1.14 per share, illustrating the significant impact of these one-time charges on otherwise profitable operations.

Revenue performance was concerning, with worldwide net sales declining 8% year-over-year to $492 million, with an additional 2% negative impact from foreign exchange. Both business segments reported decreased sales, with Consumer & Specialties down 10% and Engineered Solutions down 6%. Management attributes this weakness to customer destocking, inconsistent order patterns, tariff uncertainty, and customer maintenance outages at various facilities.

Profitability metrics show pressure across both segments. Consumer & Specialties posted an operating margin of 11.2%, while Engineered Solutions delivered 15.4%. The company reported an operating loss of $160 million on a GAAP basis, though operating income excluding special items was $63 million (12.9% of sales).

In response to these challenges, management has implemented a $10 million annualized cost savings program, primarily through workforce reductions. The company recorded a $5.5 million charge for severance and related costs in Q1. While this initiative demonstrates proactive management, full run-rate savings won't be realized until early 2026.

The company noted improved sales performance in March, with management expressing expectations for continued improvement through Q2. However, this quarter demonstrates both significant market headwinds across MTI's business lines and the material financial impact of addressing legal liabilities through the bankruptcy process.

MTI establishes $215M reserve for subsidiary's bankruptcy proceedings to resolve talc litigation, significantly impacting financial results despite management's belief claims are meritless.

The establishment of a $215 million reserve by Minerals Technologies represents a pivotal development in the company's strategy to address talc-related liabilities. This substantial provision will fund a trust designed to resolve all current and future talc-related claims against its subsidiary BMI OldCo (formerly Barretts Minerals Inc.), which has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.

Within this $215 million allocation, $30 million is specifically earmarked for additional debtor-in-possession financing through MTI's wholly-owned subsidiary, Minerals Technologies Investments This financing structure is designed to support the subsidiary through the bankruptcy process while maintaining operational separation.

The Chapter 11 filing strategically applies only to the subsidiary BMI OldCo, not the parent company MTI - a critical legal distinction that effectively creates a firewall between the talc liabilities and MTI's broader operations. This approach mirrors similar strategies employed by other companies facing mass tort litigation.

Despite committing substantial financial resources to resolve these claims, management maintains that the "lawsuits against BMI OldCo are meritless" and that "all talc sold by BMI OldCo is and always has been safe." This position suggests the company views the bankruptcy resolution as a pragmatic business decision rather than an admission of product liability.

The financial impact of this legal strategy is significant and immediate, transforming what would have been a profitable quarter (with $1.14 earnings per share excluding special items) into a substantial loss. The bankruptcy proceedings represent a definitive attempt to achieve certainty and finality regarding talc-related claims, though at considerable short-term financial cost to the parent company.

--- Establishes Reserve for BMI OldCo Chapter 11 Case ---

--- Initiates a $10 Million Cost Savings Program ---

NEW YORK, April 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Minerals Technologies Inc. (NYSE: MTX) (“MTI” or “the Company”) today reported a loss per share for the first quarter ended March 30, 2025, of $4.51 due to the establishment of a reserve in connection with the Chapter 11 case of its subsidiary BMI OldCo. Excluding special items, earnings were $1.14 per share.

First Quarter 2025 Consolidated Results

Worldwide net sales were $492 million, down 8 percent versus the prior year, driven by uncertainty in the Company’s end markets resulting in softer demand conditions in both segments. Foreign exchange had an unfavorable impact on sales of 2 percent.

“Throughout the quarter, we experienced slower demand from customers in both of our business segments. This was a result of destocking activities and shifting order patterns, primarily in January and February. We saw a significant improvement in sales in March, which we expect to continue through the second quarter,” said Douglas T. Dietrich, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We adapted quickly to changing market conditions to ensure MTI is well positioned to meet its financial targets and growth initiatives going forward.”

Reported operating loss was $160 million. Operating income excluding special items was $63 million and represented 12.9 percent of sales.

The Company recorded special items of $223 million in the first quarter, including a provision to establish a reserve of $215 million for estimated costs to fund a trust to resolve all current and future talc-related claims as well as fund its subsidiary BMI OldCo’s Chapter 11 case and related litigation costs. Included in this provision is $30 million of additional debtor-in-possession financing by Minerals Technologies Investments LLC (a wholly owned subsidiary of MTI) to BMI OldCo.

“We remain confident in BMI OldCo’s path to resolving these liabilities certainly and fairly through the Chapter 11 process, and believe this reserve is appropriate to cover the anticipated financial impact of talc-related claims,” said Mr. Dietrich. “We continue to believe the lawsuits against BMI OldCo are meritless and that all talc sold by BMI OldCo is and always has been safe.”

Cost Savings Initiative

The Company has proactively identified efficiency cost savings of approximately $10 million on an annualized basis, primarily through workforce reductions. MTI recorded a charge of $5.5 million for severance and other related costs associated with this program. The program was initiated in the first quarter of 2025, and the Company expects to achieve full run rate savings by early 2026. 

First Quarter 2025 Segment Results

Consumer & Specialties segment sales were $268 million, down 10 percent from the prior year. Foreign exchange had an unfavorable impact on sales of 2 percent.

Household & Personal Care sales were $123 million, down 11 percent from the prior year, driven by customer inventory destocking and inconsistent order patterns. Specialty Additives sales were $145 million, down 8 percent from the prior year, driven by delayed shipments due to tariff uncertainty and customer maintenance outages at paper and packaging sites. Sales improved and order patterns stabilized in both product lines in March.

Segment operating income was $30 million excluding special items. The Company incurred higher operating costs in the first quarter primarily through unfavorable volume leverage and product mix. Operating margin was 11.2 percent of sales.

MTI’s 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 $224 million, down 6 percent from the prior year. Foreign exchange had an unfavorable impact on sales of 1 percent.

High-Temperature Technologies sales were $169 million, down 4 percent from the prior year as soft demand conditions in some industrial end markets persisted in the first quarter. Environmental & Infrastructure sales were $54 million, down 10 percent from the prior year as continued stability in environmental and construction projects was offset by lower sales in offshore water filtration and services. Sales improved in both product lines in March.

Segment operating income was $34 million, down 11 percent from the prior year due to lower sales levels as well as unfavorable mix in the Environmental & Infrastructure product line. Operating margin was 15.4 percent of sales.

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