Commenting on the Company’s operating performance, William V. Hickey, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated:

 

“Our results for the third quarter reflect the actions we have taken to manage through the challenging economy. We are executing our plan well, we are continuing to tightly control expenses, and are effectively managing price/cost/mix variances.  The result was a 390 basis point improvement in adjusted operating margin to 12.3%, and a 36% increase in adjusted earnings per share to $0.38.  Sequentially, on a constant dollar basis, we saw a 6% increase in sales in Protective Packaging and stable sales in our two food businesses.  We remain focused on customers and on driving innovation as evidenced by Protective Packaging’s recent introduction of five new products in early October.

 

Cash generation continues to be strong, with an incremental $111 million in the quarter resulting in $339 million in positive free cash flow year to date.  With all the steps we have taken over the past year, we are well positioned for the current economic environment and we expect to see meaningful benefits when markets improve.”

 


 

Third Quarter Financial Highlights

 

·                  Net sales decreased 11% to $1.08 billion from $1.22 billion in 2008.  Excluding the unfavorable effect of currency translation, sales decreased 5%.  The decline reflected a 4% reduction in unit volumes principally in the industrials businesses and a 1% unfavorable effect of product price/mix.

 

·                  Cost of sales decreased $157 million, or $104 million excluding a favorable effect of currency translation.  This decrease resulted primarily from approximately $60 million in lower average petrochemical-based raw material costs and the impact of lower unit volumes.  Benefits from the Global Manufacturing Strategy (GMS) and the 2008 cost reduction and productivity program also contributed to the lower cost of sales.

 

·                  Operating profit was $130 million, or 12.1% of net sales.  This compares with $39 million, or 3.2% of net sales, for the third quarter of 2008.  Excluding charges related to GMS and the cost reduction and productivity program, operating profit would have been $133 million, or 12.3% of net sales, as compared with $103 million, or 8.4% of net sales in 2008.

 

·                  Benefits from GMS, the cost reduction and productivity program and travel and expense savings were approximately $20 million in the quarter.

 

·                  The effective income tax rate decreased to 23.6% from 26.1% in the second quarter of 2009, primarily reflecting the benefits of tax credits identified in the third quarter.

 

·                  Free cash flow was a source of $339 million year to date compared to $75 million last year.  This increase was attributable in part to a $173 million net increase in cash from working capital items, including the use of our accounts receivable securitization program, and an $82 million decline in capital expenditures.  (See the supplementary information provided regarding free cash flow, a non-U.S. GAAP measure.)

 

Third Quarter Business Segment Review

 

The following net sales discussions exclude the impact of currency translation, which we refer to as “constant dollar net sales”.  The attached financial statements present results in accordance with U.S. GAAP and the Components of Change in Net Sales section provides further details on the impact of currency translation.

 

Food Packaging Segment

 

Food Packaging recorded a constant dollar 4% increase in net sales, which primarily reflected a favorable comparison in higher unit volumes in North America due to the impact of pre-buying by customers in the second quarter of 2008 in advance of our enterprise software launch on July 1, 2008.  After adjusting 2008 for this estimated buy-in, 2009 sales would still have improved compared to last year.

 

Operating profit increased 72% to $64 million in the quarter, or 13.7% of Food Packaging net sales.  This compares with $37 million, or 7.7% of net sales, in 2008. Last year’s margin reflected lower volumes and record high resin costs.

 

2


 

Food Solutions Segment

 

Food Solutions recorded a constant dollar 4% decrease in net sales, which primarily reflected lower unit volumes in Europe due to reduced meat consumption attributable to economic conditions.

 

Operating profit increased 25% to $21 million in the quarter, or 9.3% of Food Solutions net sales.  This compares with $17 million, or 6.7% of net sales, in 2008.  The increase in operating profit was primarily due to lower average petrochemical-based raw material costs.

 

Protective Packaging Segment

 

Protective Packaging recorded a constant dollar 15% decrease in net sales, which was primarily due to lower unit volumes in North America and Europe, reflecting continuing weakness in economic conditions in those regions and continues to be generally in line with production and shipping trends.

 

Operating profit increased 5% to $41 million in the quarter, or 13.5% of Protective Packaging net sales.  This compares with $40 million, or 10.5% of net sales, in 2008.  The increase in operating profit was primarily due to lower average petrochemical-based raw material costs.

 

Other Category

 

Other category recorded a constant dollar 20% decrease in net sales, which was primarily due to lower unit volumes in North America in the Specialty Materials business, reflecting ongoing weak economic conditions in that region.

 

Operating profit decreased 29% to $5 million in the quarter, or 5.9% of Other net sales. This compares with $7 million, or 6.5% of net sales in 2008. The decrease in operating profit was primarily due to the decline in volumes, partially offset by product price/mix and lower average petrochemical-based raw material costs.

 

2009 Outlook and Earnings Guidance

 

Commenting on the Company’s outlook, Mr. Hickey stated:

 

“For the fourth quarter, we expect to continue to realize the benefits from our various programs, to remain disciplined on operating expenses, and to experience only a modest increase in raw material prices.  However, we do remain cautious on fourth quarter sequential sales growth due to the uncertainty in consumer confidence and discretionary spending, particularly during the upcoming holiday shopping season.”

 

As a result, our full year 2009 earnings per share guidance is now expected to be in the range of $1.27 to $1.35 as compared to our previous guidance of $1.17 to $1.37.  This includes full year charges of $20 million net of taxes, or $0.08 per share, for GMS related projects and $4 million net of taxes, or $0.02 per share, related to the loss on debt redemption and impairment of available-for-sale securities recorded in the third quarter.  Excluding these items, our full year

2009 earnings per share guidance is now expected to be in the range of $1.37 to $1.45 as compared to our previous guidance of $1.25 to $1.45.

 

Updated assumptions include a full year effective income tax rate of approximately 26.0%, reduced from 27.7% and capital expenditures of approximately $80 to $100 million, reduced from $100 to $125 million.

Non-U.S. GAAP Information

 

In this press release, Sealed Air has presented financial measures that exclude items that are included in U.S. GAAP calculations of such measures.  This release sets forth earnings per share excluding charges related to GMS and restructuring and other charges, a loss on debt redemption, the reversal of tax accruals and charges related to the impairment of the Company’s auction rate securities investments.  The Company’s adjusted 2009 earnings guidance also excludes certain of these charges.  Operating profit and operating margin are presented excluding GMS and restructuring and other charges.  This release also sets forth measures of net sales, cost of sales, and operating profit excluding currency translation effects.  Presenting results and guidance excluding the items indicated in this press release aids in the comparisons with other periods or prior guidance.  Earnings per share, changes in net sales, measures of expense control, and operating profit, adjusted to eliminate the effects of specified items that would otherwise be

included under U.S. GAAP, are among the criteria upon which the Company may determine performance-based compensation.  The Company’s management generally uses changes in net sales, cost of sales and operating profit, excluding the effects of currency translation, in measuring the performance of the Company’s operations.  Thus, management believes that this information may be useful to investors.  Also, see the supplementary information provided regarding free cash flow, a non-U.S. GAAP measure.

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

Some of the Company’s statements in this press release are forward-looking. These statements include comments as to future events that may affect the Company, which are based upon management’s current expectations and are subject to uncertainties, many of which are outside the Company’s control. Forward-looking statements can be identified by such words as “anticipates,” “expects,” “may,” “plans,” “should,” “will” and similar expressions. Important factors that the Company believes could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the Company’s forward-looking statements include: general economic conditions, particularly as they affect packaging utilization; changes in raw material and energy costs; currency translation effects; and legal proceedings. A more extensive list and description of these and other such factors can be found under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” which appear in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

(1) On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted a new accounting standard requiring non-vested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends to be treated as participating securities and therefore included in computing earnings per common share using the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that calculates basic and diluted net earnings per common share for each class of common stock separately based on dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The Company’s non-vested restricted stock issued under its 2005 Contingent Stock Plan are considered participating securities since these securities have non-forfeitable rights to dividends when the Company declares a dividend during the contractual period of the share-based payment award.

 

When calculating diluted net earnings per common share, the more dilutive effect of applying either of the following is presented: (a) the two-class method assuming that the participating security is not exercised or converted, or, (b) the treasury stock method for the participating security.  The Company’s diluted net earnings per common share above were calculated using the two-class method since such method was more dilutive.

 

The calculations of basic and diluted net earnings per common share for 2008 have been adjusted to reflect this change and it did not have a material impact.

 

(2) On July 20, 2009, the Company redeemed all of its 3% Convertible Senior Notes. In calculating diluted net earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2008, net earnings available to common stockholders - diluted and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding - diluted, excludes the effect of conversion of the Company’s 3% Convertible Senior Notes as the effect was antidilutive.

 

(3) Provides for the following items if their inclusion is dilutive: (1) the effect of assumed issuance of 18 million shares of common stock reserved for the Settlement agreement, (2) the effect of conversion of the Company’s 3% Convertible Senior Notes due June 2033 and (3) the effect of non-vested restricted stock units using the treasury stock method.

(1) Free Cash Flow does not purport to represent net earnings or net cash provided by operating activities as those terms are defined under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to such measurements or as an indicator of the Company’s performance under U.S. GAAP.  The Company’s calculation of Free Cash Flow may not be comparable with similarly-titled measures used by other companies.  Free Cash Flow is among the various indicators used by the Company’s management to measure the performance of the Company’s operations and aids in the comparisons with other periods and thus the Company’s management believes such information may be useful to investors.

 

(2) Net of income taxes.
