CLAYTON, Mo., Oct. 26, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Olin Corporation (NYSE: OLN) announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.   Third quarter 2022 reported net income was $315.2 million, or $2.18 per diluted share, which compares to third quarter 2021 reported net income of $390.7 million, or $2.38 per diluted share.  Third quarter 2022 adjusted EBITDA of $547.8 million excludes depreciation and amortization expense of $149.8 million, gains on sale of former manufacturing facilities of $13.0 million, and restructuring charges of $7.6 million.  Third quarter 2021 adjusted EBITDA was $707.0 million.  Sales in the third quarter 2022 were $2,321.7 million compared to $2,340.1 million in the third quarter 2021.

Scott Sutton, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer, said, "We are experiencing recessionary global economic conditions.  Our third quarter adjusted EBITDA performance begins to demonstrate how our winning model, that emphasizes 'value first' versus a volume maximization approach, should dramatically improve our recessionary level of adjusted EBITDA compared to Olin's historical performance.  While our chemical businesses have been challenged by European and North American epoxy and vinyls intermediate demand shortfalls and increased Asian exports, the core electrochemical unit (ECU) pricing for merchant chlorine and caustic soda continued to move higher.

"We expect Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls fourth quarter segment results to be slightly lower than third quarter 2022 levels, as we expect chlorine and caustic soda pricing to continue to improve, while vinyls intermediates pricing is likely to remain under pressure.  Our Epoxy segment fourth quarter results are expected to seasonally decline from third quarter 2022 levels, exacerbated by increased Chinese exports precipitated by continuing weak Chinese domestic demand.  Our team continues to adeptly reduce operating rates and increase product purchases; thereby, refraining from selling incremental volume into poor-quality markets.  We expect Winchester segment fourth quarter results to seasonally decline from third quarter 2022 levels as we execute our holiday shutdowns.  Overall, we expect Olin's fourth quarter 2022 adjusted EBITDA to decline approximately 15% to 20% from third quarter 2022 levels.

"So far in 2022, we repurchased approximately 13% of our outstanding shares from available cash flow, while reducing our net debt level.  With our strong balance sheet and confidence in Olin's earnings and cash flow generation even in recessionary economic conditions, we expect to continue our capital allocation strategy, while committing to maintain an investment-grade balance sheet and move Olin to an investment-grade credit rating."

SEGMENT REPORTING

Olin defines segment earnings as income (loss) before interest expense, interest income, other operating income (expense), non-operating pension income, other income, and income taxes.

CHLOR ALKALI PRODUCTS AND VINYLS

Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls sales for the third quarter 2022 were $1,263.5 million compared to $1,062.4 million in the third quarter 2021.  The increase in Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls sales was primarily due to higher pricing, partially offset by 17% lower volumes.  Third quarter 2022 segment earnings were $253.9 million compared to $263.0 million in the third quarter 2021.  The $9.1 million decrease in segment earnings was primarily due to lower volumes and higher raw material and operating costs, mainly increased natural gas and electrical power costs, partially offset by higher pricing across all products except vinyls intermediates, which declined.  Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls third quarter 2022 results included depreciation and amortization expense of $121.1 million compared to $116.7 million in the third quarter 2021.

EPOXY

Epoxy sales for the third quarter 2022 were $644.1 million compared to $877.7 million in the third quarter 2021.  The decrease in Epoxy sales was primarily due to 29% lower volumes, partially offset by higher pricing.  Third quarter 2022 segment earnings were $80.1 million compared to $215.2 million in the third quarter 2021.  The $135.1 million decrease in Epoxy segment earnings was primarily due to lower volumes and higher operating costs, mainly increased benzene, propylene, natural gas and electrical power costs, partially offset by higher product pricing.  Epoxy third quarter 2022 results included depreciation and amortization expense of $20.1 million compared to $21.1 million in the third quarter 2021.

WINCHESTER

Winchester sales for the third quarter 2022 were $414.1 million compared to $400.0 million in the third quarter 2021.  The increase in Winchester sales was primarily due to higher commercial ammunition pricing.  Sales also reflected lower commercial ammunition shipments partially offset by higher military and law enforcement shipments.  Third quarter 2022 segment earnings were $89.0 million compared to $115.3 million in the third quarter 2021.  The $26.3 million decrease in segment earnings was primarily due to higher commodity and other materials costs and lower commercial ammunition shipments partially offset by higher commercial ammunition pricing and higher military and law enforcement sales.  Winchester third quarter 2022 results included depreciation and amortization expense of $6.1 million compared to $5.7 million in the third quarter 2021.

CORPORATE AND OTHER COSTS

Other corporate and unallocated costs in the third quarter of 2022 decreased $9.3 million compared to the third quarter 2021 primarily due to lower incentive costs, which includes mark-to-market adjustments on stock-based compensation partially offset by higher legal fees and unfavorable foreign currency impacts.

LIQUIDITY AND SHARE REPURCHASES

The cash balance on September 30, 2022, was $163.6 million and we ended the quarter with net debt of approximately $2.4 billion and a net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio of 0.9 times.  During third quarter 2022, Olin repaid the $200 million 5.5% senior notes which became due.  

During third quarter 2022, approximately 8.2 million shares of common stock were repurchased at a cost of $410.9 million.  During the first nine months of 2022, approximately 20.8 million shares of common stock were repurchased at a cost of $1,100.6 million.  For the full year 2021, Olin repurchased approximately 4.7 million shares of common stock at a cost of $251.9 million.  On September 30, 2022, Olin had approximately $1,951.6 million available under its current share repurchase authorization.

Olin Corporation Non-GAAP Financial Measures - Adjusted EBITDA (a)
Olin's definition of Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) is net income (loss) plus an add-back for depreciation and amortization, interest expense (income), income tax expense (benefit), other expense (income), restructuring charges, goodwill impairment charges and certain other non-recurring items.  Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure.  Management believes that this measure is meaningful to investors as a supplemental financial measure to assess the financial performance without regard to financing methods, capital structures, taxes or historical cost basis.  The use of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to replace any measures of performance determined in accordance with GAAP and Adjusted EBITDA presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.  Reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are omitted from this release because Olin is unable to provide such reconciliations without the use of unreasonable efforts.  This inability results from the inherent difficulty in forecasting generally and quantifying certain projected amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations.  In particular, sufficient information is not available to calculate certain adjustments required for such reconciliations, including interest expense (income), income tax expense (benefit), other expense (income) and restructuring charges.  Because of our inability to calculate such adjustments, forward-looking net income guidance is also omitted from this release.  We expect these adjustments to have a potentially significant impact on our future GAAP financial results.

Olin Corporation Non-GAAP Financial Measures - Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA (a)
Olin's definition of Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA is Net Debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA.  Net Debt at the end of any reporting period is defined as the sum of our current installments of long-term debt and long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents.  Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) is net income (loss) plus an add-back for depreciation and amortization, interest expense (income), income tax expense (benefit), other expense (income), restructuring charges, goodwill impairment charges and certain other non-recurring items for the previous twelve months.  Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure.  Management believes that this measure is meaningful to investors as a measure of our ability to manage our indebtedness.  The use of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to replace any measures of indebtedness or liquidity determined in accordance with GAAP and Net Debt or Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
