Rhea-AI Summary

The company's net revenues for fiscal year 2023 were $3,756 million, and the retail net revenues were $3,559 million. The company forecasts net revenues for fiscal year 2024 to be $3,530 to $3,640 million.

Insights

Financial Analyst

The reported increase in Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA by 16% for Reynolds Consumer Products Inc. is a strong indicator of the company's financial health and operational efficiency. This growth, particularly in a challenging economic environment, suggests that the company's strategic initiatives, such as the Reynolds Cooking & Baking recovery plan and the optimization of the retail product portfolio, are yielding tangible results. The significant reduction in net debt leverage from 3.8x to 2.7x is also noteworthy, as it implies an improved credit profile and may positively influence the company's borrowing costs and investment appeal.

The free cash flow surge to $540 million, a $449 million increase from the previous year, showcases robust cash generation capability. This is critical for supporting dividend payments, reducing debt and funding future growth initiatives. The guidance for double-digit net income growth and further reduction of net debt by the end of the year indicates management's confidence in the company's continued performance and strategic direction. However, the forecasted reduction in net revenues for 2024 warrants attention, as it may reflect anticipated market challenges or strategic shifts in the company's operations.

Market Research Analyst

The company's ability to increase market share despite a retail volume decrease of 2% compared to a weighted average category decline of 4% is indicative of its competitive strength. This performance is particularly impressive given the overall decrease in non-retail net revenues, which suggests a strategic shift towards more profitable retail channels. The focus on product innovation and optimization is likely resonating with consumers, as evidenced by the success of products like Reynolds Wrap® and Reynolds Kitchens® Stay Flat Parchment with SmartGrid®.

However, the company's forward-looking statements reveal an expected reduction in net revenues due to a combination of pricing strategies, volume optimization and category performance. This could imply that while the company is focusing on profitability and operational efficiency, it may be facing headwinds in terms of overall demand. The emphasis on product mix improvements and cost savings initiatives, such as the Reyvolution program, will be critical in maintaining profitability in the face of these challenges.

Economist

The broader economic context must be considered when evaluating Reynolds Consumer Products Inc.'s performance. The company's resilience amidst economic challenges may be partially attributed to the non-discretionary nature of many of its products, which can fare better during economic downturns. However, the reported elasticity pressure on Hefty Tableware volumes suggests that even essential goods are not immune to consumer spending cutbacks in tighter economic conditions.

The company's proactive debt management and cash flow generation are particularly prudent in an environment where interest rates may rise, potentially increasing the cost of borrowing. The strategic deleveraging to a net debt leverage of 2.7x enhances the company's financial stability and positions it to better weather economic uncertainties. The forecasted stability in commodity rates is also favorable, as it may help in managing cost pressures and sustaining margin improvements.

Record Fourth Quarter Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA; Increased 28% and 19%

Record Operating Cash Flow of $644M; Net Debt Leverage¹ Reduced to 2.7x

LAKE FOREST, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Reynolds Consumer Products Inc. (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: REYN) today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

Fiscal Year 2023 Highlights

• Net Revenues of $3,756 million vs. $3,817 million in 2022
  • Retail net revenues of $3,559 million vs. $3,549 million in 2022
  • Non-retail net revenues of $197 million vs. $268 million in 2022
• Net Income of $298 million vs. $258 million in 2022
• Adjusted EBITDA of $636 million vs. $546 million in 2022
• Earnings Per Share of $1.42 vs. $1.23 in 2022; Adjusted Earnings Per Share of $1.42 vs. $1.28 in 2022
• Operating Cash Flow of $644 million vs. $219 million in 2022

The Company continued to gain market share in 2023 as retail volume decreased 2% compared to a weighted average category decline of 4% for the year.

Net income and Adjusted EBITDA each increased 16% over the prior year driven by effective execution of the Reynolds Cooking & Baking recovery plan, ongoing work to optimize the retail product portfolio, lower operational costs and previously implemented pricing actions, partially offset by higher SG&A including increased investment in advertising. Net income benefited from the same factors as the increase in Adjusted EBITDA, partially offset by higher interest and income tax expense.

Free cash flow of $540 million represented a $449 million increase compared to free cash flow in the prior year. Net debt to trailing twelve months Adjusted EBITDA improved by more than one turn of leverage from 3.8x on December 31, 2022 to 2.7x on December 31, 2023.

“Reynolds Consumer Products is performing very well in a challenging economic environment and I am extremely proud of all that our team accomplished in 2023,” said Lance Mitchell, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We increased market share in our largest categories, restored operational stability in the Reynolds Cooking & Baking business, outperformed our earnings expectations and drove record cash flows, resulting in leverage of less than three times Adjusted EBITDA at year end. Our integrated brand and store brand model remains a competitive advantage and we will build upon these accomplishments to drive further earnings growth and financial flexibility in 2024.”

Fourth Quarter 2023 Highlights

• Net Revenues of $1,007 million vs. $1,089 million in Q4 2022
  • Retail net revenues of $972 million vs. $1,014 million in Q4 2022
  • Non-retail net revenues of $35 million vs. $75 million in Q4 2022
• Net Income of $137 million vs. $107 million in Q4 2022
• Adjusted EBITDA of $238 million vs. $200 million in Q4 2022
• Earnings Per Share of $0.65 vs. $0.51 in Q4 2022; Adjusted Earnings Per Share of $0.65 vs. $0.53 in Q4 2022

Retail volume decreased 3%, outperforming a weighted average category decline of 4%.

Net income and Adjusted EBITDA increased 28% and 19%, respectively, over the fourth quarter of 2022 driven by effective execution of the Reynolds Cooking & Baking recovery plan, increased optimization of the retail product portfolio and lower operational costs, partially offset by higher SG&A including increased investment in advertising. Net income benefited from the same factors as the increase in Adjusted EBITDA, partially offset by higher income tax expense.

Reynolds Cooking & Baking

• Net revenues decreased $41 million to $357 million driven by a $40 million decrease in low margin non-retail sales

• Adjusted EBITDA increased $44 million to $89 million

Adjusted EBITDA doubled, reflecting execution of the Reynolds Cooking & Baking recovery plan, ongoing work to optimize the retail product portfolio and lower operational costs, partially offset by higher advertising investments.

Implementation of the Reynolds Cooking & Baking recovery plan delivered the commercial, operational and financial objectives set at the start of the year and returned the business to historical levels of earnings.

Volume was down 11% for the quarter driven by a nine-point headwind from low margin non-retail sales.

Retail volume decreased 2%, outperforming the category. Strength was driven by Reynolds Wrap®, which gained additional share of household foil, the national launch of Reynolds Kitchens® Stay Flat Parchment with SmartGrid® and distribution gains for new products including Reynolds Kitchens® Air Fryer liners.

Hefty Waste & Storage

• Net revenues decreased $5 million to $237 million

• Adjusted EBITDA increased $1 million to $73 million

Adjusted EBITDA increased slightly as lower operational costs were largely offset by investments to support growth.

Volume increased 1% as Hefty gained additional share of the waste bags category driven by advertising, trade and product innovation. Hefty Fabuloso® delivered its third consecutive year of strong double digit growth and continues to gain share, achieving nearly $160 million in retail sales for the year. Other new food and waste bag products are also building velocity and gaining distribution including new Hefty® Ultra Strong made with 50% Recovered Materials, Hefty press to close food bags and Hefty half gallon slider bags.

Hefty Tableware

• Net revenues decreased $38 million to $259 million

• Adjusted EBITDA decreased $4 million to $58 million

Adjusted EBITDA decreased 6% reflecting lower volume.

Volume declines moderated to down 7% as improved holiday-related features, displays and promotions partially offset continued elasticity pressure.

Plans to drive further volume improvement are being implemented and include adjustments to price, pack sizes and promotions to hit key price points, new products at lower opening price points, increased distribution of high velocity products, introduction and expansion of sustainable product innovations and rollout of Hefty® Zoopals® to brick and mortar retailers.

Presto Products

• Net revenues decreased $3 million to $153 million

• Adjusted EBITDA increased $4 million to $34 million

Adjusted EBITDA increased 13% primarily reflecting lower operational costs.

Volume decreased 3% driven by initiatives to optimize the retail product portfolio. Strong performance in food bags continued to benefit from product innovation including press to close stand and fill bags and bio-based sandwich bags produced with 20% plant & ocean materials.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights

Cash and cash equivalents were $115 million at December 31, 2023, and debt was $1,832 million resulting in net debt of $1,717 million. This compares to cash and cash equivalents of $38 million, and debt of $2,091 million at December 31, 2022, which is a $336 million reduction in net debt.

During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company made voluntary principal payments totaling $150 million on its term loan facility, contributing to a full year reduction in debt of $259 million.

Capital expenditures were $104 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to $128 million in the prior year.

Operating cash flow of $644 million represented a $425 million increase compared to 2022, and free cash flow of $540 million represented a $449 million increase by comparison to free cash flow in the prior year.

First Quarter and Fiscal Year 2024 Outlook

The Company forecasts the following results for its fiscal year and first quarter:

	Fiscal Year 2024 Outlook
Net revenues	$3,530 to $3,640 million
Net income	$331 to $347 million
Adjusted EBITDA	$660 to $680 million
Earnings per share	$1.57 to $1.65
Net debt at December 31, 2024	$1.5 to $1.6 billion

	Q1 2024 Outlook
Net revenues	$795 to $820 million
Net income	$44 to $48 million
Adjusted EBITDA	$115 to $120 million
Earnings per share	$0.21 to $0.23

The Company guides full-year 2024 net revenues to be approximately $3,530 million to $3,640 million versus prior year net revenues of $3,756 million consisting of the following assumptions:

1% reduction from pricing

3% reduction from lower non-retail volume and further optimization of the retail product portfolio

2% reduction to 1% increase from retail volume at or better than category forecasts

The Company guides first quarter 2024 net revenues to be approximately $795 million to $820 million versus prior year net revenues of $874 million consisting of the following assumptions:

Unchanged pricing

4.5% reduction from lower non-retail volume and further optimization of the retail product portfolio

4.5% to 1.5% reduction from retail volume at or better than category forecasts

Commodity rates are expected to remain more stable than in recent years.

The Company forecasts Adjusted EBITDA growth to be driven by retail volume at or above category forecasts, further improvements in product mix, the Reynolds Cooking & Baking business’ recovery of historical earnings and delivery of additional Reyvolution cost savings.

Net income growth is forecasted to be driven by the same factors driving Adjusted EBITDA, in addition to an approximately $20 million expected reduction in interest expense compared to 2023 net interest expense of $119 million.

The Company forecasts phasing of quarterly Adjusted EBITDA returning to historical averages.

“We expanded margins over 250 basis points in 2023 and over 500 basis points in the fourth quarter, helping drive a reduction in leverage by more than one turn of EBITDA for the year, further demonstrating RCP’s durable business model and strong cash flow generation,” said Scott Huckins, Chief Financial Officer. “In 2024, we expect to drive additional earnings growth by investing in our categories and product innovation, further optimizing our retail product mix and unlocking additional productivity, allowing us to achieve our targeted leverage range by year end, increasing our financial flexibility.”

Quarterly Dividend

The Company’s Board of Directors has approved a quarterly dividend of $0.23 per common share. The Company expects to pay this dividend on February 29, 2024, to shareholders of record as of February 15, 2024.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use non-GAAP financial measures “Adjusted EBITDA,” “Adjusted Net Income,” “Adjusted Earnings Per Share,” “Net Debt,” “Net Debt to Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDA,” and “Free Cash Flow” in evaluating our past results and future prospects. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income calculated in accordance with GAAP, plus the sum of income tax expense, net interest expense, depreciation and amortization and further adjusted to exclude IPO and separation-related costs, as well as other non-recurring costs. We define Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share (“Adjusted EPS”) as Net Income and Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) calculated in accordance with GAAP, plus IPO and separation-related costs, as well as other non-recurring costs. We define Net Debt as the current portion of long-term debt plus long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents. We define Net Debt to Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDA as Net Debt (as defined above) as of the end of the period to Adjusted EBITDA (as defined above) for the period. We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities in the period minus the acquisition of property, plant and equipment in the period.

We present Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by our management team to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions. In addition, our chief operating decision maker uses Adjusted EBITDA of each reportable segment to evaluate the operating performance of such segments. We use Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share as supplemental measures to evaluate our business’ performance in a way that also considers our ability to generate profit without the impact of certain items. We use Net Debt as we believe it is a more representative measure of our liquidity. We use Net Debt to Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDA because it reflects our ability to service our debt obligations. We use Free Cash Flow because it measures our ability to generate additional cash from our business operations. Accordingly, we believe presenting these measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management team and board of directors.

Non-GAAP information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as or comparable to similar non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies.

Guidance for fiscal year and first quarter 2024, where adjusted, is provided on a non-GAAP basis. The Company cannot reconcile its expected Net Debt at December 31, 2024 to expected total debt, or expected ratios involving Net Debt, without reasonable effort because certain items that impact total debt and other reconciling measures are out of the Company’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted at this time, to which unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company’s GAAP financial results.

Please see reconciliations of non-GAAP measures used in this release (with the exception of our December 31, 2024 Net Debt outlook, as described above) to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, beginning on the following page.
