Third Quarter 2020 Highlights:
- Revenue of
$675 million increased 17 percent sequentially on improved market demand - Income from operations of
$49 million ; Net income of$902 million primarily due to the reversal of a portion of U.S. valuation allowance relating to net operating loss carryforwards resulting in a non-cash benefit of$895 million - Adjusted EBITDA of
$148 million ; Adjusted EBITDA margin of 22 percent (Non-GAAP), reflecting the impact of adjusting our operations to accommodate the effects of the pandemic, partially offset by cost reductions and increased acquisition synergies - Total year-to-date acquisition synergies of
$183 million , with$134 million reflected in Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP); Raising total synergy target for FY 2020 to$235 million , with$185 million to be reflected in Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP) - GAAP diluted income per share of
$6.18 ; Adjusted diluted EPS of$0.05 (Non-GAAP) - TiO2 sales volumes increased 16 percent sequentially, driven by improving market demand throughout the quarter, with level selling prices consistent with expectations
- Zircon sales volumes declined 15 percent sequentially as a result of shipment timing between quarters, with a 2 percent decline in selling prices driven largely by product mix
- Feedstock and other products sales increased 73 percent sequentially, primarily due to increased pig iron and CP slag sales mandated by the FTC consent order
Fourth Quarter 2020 Outlook:
- Strong sales trends reflect a favorable deviation from typical fourth quarter seasonality; anticipate this will result in TiO2 sales volumes at or above Q3 2020 and Q4 2019

Tronox's third quarter results grew sequentially driven by improving market conditions throughout the quarter. TiO2 volumes increased 16 percent quarter over quarter, while pricing remained level. TiO2 sales volumes benefited from sequential volume growth in all regions led by a significant recovery in South and Central America. Compared to the third quarter of last year, sales volumes were higher in Latin America, level in North America, and lower slightly in Europe, while volumes lagged in Asia Pacific, largely due to the COVID-19 impact in India. Zircon revenue declined 18 percent sequentially, as shipment timing led to a reallocation of volumes between quarters, resulting in 15 percent lower sales volumes sequentially, and price was impacted by 2 percent driven largely by product mix. Feedstock and other products revenues improved sequentially as market conditions supported improved pig iron sales and mandated CP slag shipments resumed. Tronox delivered Adjusted EBITDA of
Commenting on these results, Jeffry N. Quinn, chairman and chief executive officer, stated, "Our third quarter results continue to reflect the strength of our vertically integrated business and our ability to optimize our operations across a variety of business conditions. Utilizing our proprietary enterprise optimization capabilities, we adjusted our operations to accommodate the effects of the pandemic, which resulted in increased production costs and a slight temporary impact to margins as we foreshadowed on our second quarter earnings call. However, the strength of synergies captured and cost reductions minimized the impact on our margin profile. As the quarter progressed, we also saw a benefit from the regional diversity of our revenue profile as demand in all regions returns to more normalized levels on a staggered basis.
"The trajectory moving out of the third quarter is indicative of the improving market conditions we expect through the end of the year and into 2021. While the macro environment remains uncertain, we anticipate a favorable deviation from normal fourth quarter seasonality, resulting in strong fourth quarter TiO2 sales volumes at or above third quarter 2020 and fourth quarter 2019 levels. Additionally, as a result of shipment timing and continued recovery in end market demand, fourth quarter zircon sales volumes are expected to be the strongest of the year, improving sequentially from the third quarter in the range of 25 percent.
"Given our continued demonstration of the benefits of our vertically integrated business model, we are raising our full year 2020 synergy target to
"From a liquidity and capital resources perspective, we are pleased with how well our business is positioned despite the pandemic, attributable to the strength of our business model. As we move closer to the end of the year, we are evaluating incremental debt pay down options utilizing excess liquidity on the balance sheet to advance further towards our gross debt target of
Mr. Quinn concluded, "I am extremely proud of how focused our entire Tronox team has remained throughout the prolonged pandemic, prioritizing safety and looking out for the health and well-being of one another while continuing to deliver safe, quality, low-cost, sustainable tons for our customers. The strength in our performance speaks to the resiliency of our business and reinforces our confidence in Tronox's positioning for the recovery to come."

To provide investors and others with additional information regarding the financial results of Tronox Holdings plc, we have disclosed in this release certain non-U.S. GAAP operating performance measures of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted net loss attributable to Tronox, including its presentation on a per share basis, and a non-U.S. GAAP liquidity measure of Free Cash Flow. These non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are a supplement to and not a substitute for or superior to, the Company's results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-U.S. GAAP financial measures presented by the Company may be different from non-U.S. GAAP financial measures presented by other companies. Specifically, the Company believes the non-U.S. GAAP information provides useful measures to investors regarding the Company's financial performance by excluding certain costs and expenses that the Company believes are not indicative of its core operating results.

Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information
On April 10, 2019, we announced the completion of the acquisition of the TiO2 business of Cristal which impacts the comparability of the reported results for the third quarter of 2020 compared to the third quarter of 2019. Since Tronox and Cristal have combined their respective businesses effective with the merger date of April 10, 2019, the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 reflect the results of the combined business, while the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 reflect the results of the combined business from April 10, 2019. To assist with a discussion of the third quarter of 2020 and the third quarter of 2019 results on a comparable basis, certain supplemental unaudited pro forma income statement and Adjusted EBITDA information is provided on a consolidated basis and is referred to as "pro forma information." The pro forma information has been prepared on a basis consistent with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, assuming the merger and merger-related divestitures of Cristal's North American TiO2 business and the 8120 paper laminate grade had been consummated on January 1, 2018. In preparing this pro forma information, the historical financial information has been adjusted to give effect to pro forma adjustments that are (i) directly attributable to the business combination and other transactions presented herein, such as the merger-related divestitures, (ii) factually supportable, and (iii) expected to have a continuing impact on the combined entity's consolidated results. The pro forma information is based on management's assumptions and is presented for illustrative purposes and does not purport to represent what the results of operations would actually have been if the business combination and merger-related divestitures had occurred as of the dates indicated or what the results would be for any future periods. Also, the pro forma information does not include the impact of any revenue, cost or other operating synergies in the periods prior to the acquisition that may result from the business combination or any related restructuring costs.
