ORLANDO, Fla., Oct. 28, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- (NYSE: TUP) Tupperware Brands Corporation (the "Company") today reported operating results for the third quarter ended September 26, 2020.

Third Quarter Financial & Operational Updates

• Third quarter sales up 14% versus last year and 21% in local currency
• GAAP diluted E.P.S. of $0.65, versus $0.16 in the prior year period, included a $31 million write-off of capitalized software implementation costs in 2020

• Year-to-date cash flow from operations, net of investing activities, improved $112 million vs. 2019

"The 21 percent growth in local currency revenue reported today reflects a rapid adoption of digital tools by our sales force to combat the social restrictions surrounding COVID-19, and the increased consumer demand for our innovative and environmentally friendly products, as more consumers cook at home and are concerned with food safety and storage," said Miguel Fernandez, President and Chief Executive Officer of Tupperware Brands.   "The improved performance of both top and bottom line these past two quarters are a positive sign that our Turnaround Plan is working".  

Sandra Harris, Tupperware Brands Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer said, "We are pleased with the rate of improvement in right sizing the business, improving our liquidity and making permanent structural changes that will ensure the success of our Turnaround Plan."  Harris continued, " These efforts, including sales of non-core assets, will help us continue to improve the health of our balance sheet as we pursue the refinancing of our June 2021 obligations."

Third Quarter Results: (as compared with last year)

Third quarter 2020 sales were $477.2 million, up 14% and local currency sales were up 21%.  Average active sales force was up 10% and sales per active sales force was up 10% reflecting strong engagement by the sales force utilizing digital tools and techniques to bring Tupperware's reusable products to market during unprecedented times.

• Asia Pacific - Sales $140.1 million, down 6% and local currency sales down 7%
• Europe - Sales $121.2 million, up 23% and local currency sales up 25%
• North America - Sales $146.3 million, up 42% and local currency sales up 51%
• South America - Sales $69.6 million, up 4% and local currency sales up 36%

Net income improved 341% to $34.4 million or $0.65 diluted earnings per share compared with net income of $7.8 million and $0.16 diluted earnings per share last year primarily due to increased profit from sales growth and realization of the Turnaround Plan cost savings.

Liquidity and Capital Allocation

As of September 26, 2020, the Company continues to be in compliance with its financial covenants under its Credit Agreement with a debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio of 3.72x vs. the required covenant ratio of 5.25x.

As part of the Turnaround Plan, the Company continued to prioritize the use of cash for the repayment of debt and investments to right size the business.

The 4.75% 2021 Senior Notes became a current liability in June of 2020.  The Company expects to continue to address this indebtedness through exploring with its advisors refinancing alternatives, including open-market purchases, future tender offers, exchange offers of debt for debt, cash or equity, or other transactions. The Company retired $121 million of senior notes at a discount to par during the third quarter and $220 million year to date leaving a balance of $380 million.

Additionally, the Company believes that improved profitability and revenue growth through the Turnaround Plan, together with the anticipated sale of its Orlando real estate and other non-core assets in the near term will contribute to its ability to meet future debt obligations. During the year-to-date period ended September 26, 2020 the Company generated $107.8 million of cash flow from operating activities, net of investing activities, for an improvement of $111.9 million from last year through reductions in discretionary spending, improvements in working capital including inventory reductions, and reducing payroll costs, including through organizational redesign, employee furloughs, and permanent reductions in employee headcount.

Other than updating for changes in foreign currency exchange rates, the Company does not intend to update forward-looking information.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company has utilized non-GAAP financial measures in this release, which are provided to assist readers' understanding of the Company's results of operations. These amounts exclude certain items that at times materially impact the comparability of the Company's results of operations. The adjusted information is intended to be indicative of the Company's primary operations, and to assist readers in evaluating performance and analyzing trends across periods by providing what the Company believes is a useful measure for predictive purposes. These results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with GAAP.

The non-GAAP financial measures include comparisons related to profit that exclude:

• gains from the sale of property, plant and equipment and other real estate related operations
• insurance settlement gains or significant charges related to casualty losses caused by significant weather events, fires or similar circumstances
• exit or disposal cost obligations related to rationalizing supply chain operations and other re-engineering activities performed to wind-down or significantly restructure businesses, including cumulative translation adjustments recognized in income upon liquidation of operations in a country, asset sales or fixed asset impairments, inventory obsolescence and other operating losses incurred in conjunction with such activities
• certain asset retirement obligations
• pension settlements
• significant discrete impacts of new tax laws upon adoption, including the impact on cumulative deferred taxes from items previously recorded as cumulative translation adjustments
• amortization of definite-lived intangible assets
• non-cash impairment charges related to the carrying value of acquired intangible assets and goodwill
• infrequent costs incurred in connection with a change in capital structure
• the impact from hyper-inflationary economies on net monetary assets and other balance sheet positions that impact near term income
• non-recurring costs associated with the Turnaround Plan

While these types of events can and do recur periodically, they are not part of the Company's primary business operations and are excluded from indicated financial information due to their distinction from ongoing business operations, inherent volatility and impact on the comparability of earnings across periods, as amounts recognized in any given period are not indicative of amounts that may be recognized in any particular future period.

Additionally, the Company engages in B2B transactions, in which it sells products to a partner company. Since the level of these sales is volatile from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year, and is largely independent of the activities of its sales force, the Company at times, in addition to disclosing reported sales, discloses "core" sales amounts and comparisons, which excludes amounts sold under B2B transactions. This illustrates sales results and trends directly associated with activities of its independent sales force. All financial information disclosed and presented includes B2B transactions unless specifically stated as "core" sales or otherwise indicated.

Also, as the impact of changes in exchange rates is an important factor in understanding period-to-period comparisons.  The Company believes the presentation of results on a local currency basis, in addition to reported results, helps improve readers' ability to understand the Company's operating results and evaluate performance in comparison with prior periods. The Company presents local currency information that compares results between periods as if current period exchange rates had been the exchange rates in the prior period. The Company uses results on a local currency basis as one measure to evaluate performance and generally refers to such amounts as restated or excluding the impact of foreign currency.

These core sales and local currency results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with GAAP. Core sales and results on a local currency basis may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not measures of performance presented in accordance with GAAP.

Information included with this release includes references to Adjusted EBITDA and a Debt/Adjusted EBITDA ratio, which are non-GAAP financial measures used in the Company's Credit Agreement. The Company uses these measures in its capital allocation decision process and in discussions with investors, analysts and other interested parties, and therefore believes it is useful to disclose this amount and ratio. The Company's calculation of these measures is in accordance with its Credit Agreement, and is set forth in the reconciliation from GAAP amounts in an attachment to this release; however, the reader is cautioned that other companies define these measures in different ways, and consequently they may not be comparable with similarly labeled amounts disclosed by others.

a Amortization of intangibles of acquired beauty units.

b Pension settlement costs.

c As a result of devaluations in the Venezuelan bolivar, and beginning July 1, 2018, Argentine peso, as Venezuela and Argentina are accounted for as hyper-inflationary, the Company had negative impacts of $2.2 million and  $0.8 million in the third quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively.  These amounts were related to expense from re-measuring bolivar  and peso denominated net monetary assets at the lower exchange rates at the times of devaluations, along with the impact of recording  in income amounts on the balance sheet when the devaluations occurred, primarily inventory, at the exchange rates at the time the amounts were made or purchased, rather than the exchange rates in use when they were included in income.

d Loss on disposal of assets in  2020 mainly relates to a write-off of capitalized software implementation costs, partially offset by a gain from the sale of land in Australia. In  2019, mainly relates to the write-off of assets in Tupperware France and Tupperware Brazil.

e In both years, re-engineering charges were primarily related to severance costs incurred for headcount reduction in several of the Company's operations in connection with changes in its management and organizational structures.
