Revenue for the third quarter 2015 were €1.259 billion, an increase of 36% from the third quarter 2014 and Adjusted EBITDA was €79 million in the third quarter of 2015, an increase of 10% from the third quarter last year. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA reflected a total of €8 million positive premium impact and a negative €1 million impact in foreign exchange for the Company when compared to the same period in 2014. Third quarter 2015 shipments were 374k metric tons, an increase of 41% from last year. Adjusted EBITDA per metric ton for the third quarter 2015 was €211 compared to €269 for the third quarter 2014, reflecting the impact of higher volumes of can sheet in our mix as a result of the acquisition of Wise Metals. Excluding Muscle Shoals, Adjusted EBITDA per metric ton for the third quarter 2015 was €253.

The inclusion of Muscle Shoals resulted in a contribution of €275 million in revenue and €12 million in Adjusted EBITDA to the P&ARP segment for the third quarter 2015. In addition, Muscle Shoals added 109k metric tons of shipments to Constellium for the same period.

Commenting on the third quarter 2015 results, Pierre Vareille, Constellium’s Chief Executive Officer said: “Third quarter results reflect strong operational progress and we expect 2016 to show a marked improvement in the profitability of our three segments. We continue to believe that the Body-in-White opportunity, particularly in North America, represents significant long-term value for our shareholders. However, we are exploring alternatives to reduce the cash flow impact to Constellium of investments in Muscle Shoals. This review is a tangible step to balance our long-term growth with the near-term financial objectives of the Company. Additionally, we are electing to pay the Wise PIK Toggle Note coupon in kind in June 2016.”

 

    Quarter Highlights and Recent Development

In October 2015, Constellium communicated to the investor community its plans to reduce total capital expenditures by €150 million through the end of 2017 by optimizing its global cold mill resources with no change to the previously announced targeted project completion dates. In addition, the Company communicated an unplanned outage at the Neuf-Brisach manufacturing facility as a result of the breakdown of a scalper in September 2015. The impact of the outage for the third quarter was approximately €6 million of Adjusted EBITDA and half of this impact is expected to be recovered during the fourth quarter. No customers were impacted during this outage and Neuf-Brisach is now operating again at full capacity.

Constellium also announced at that time that it is establishing a regional North American Research and Technology hub in Michigan to bring its engineering expertise closer to its current and future customers in North America. This hub will complement Constellium’s research and technology footprint in both automotive and aerospace, with a focus on Body-in-White and Automotive Structures development in North America.

On October 27, 2015, Constellium’s Muscle Shoals, Alabama facility and the United Steelworkers entered into a new contract through November 2020. The previous contract would have expired in November 2017.

Shipments and revenue increased significantly reflecting the inclusion of the Muscle Shoals facility to the P&ARP segment with a 67% growth in shipments to 262k metric tons, and Adjusted EBITDA of €40 million. Adjusted EBITDA per metric ton of €153 for P&ARP decreased by 26% over the same period in the prior year, primarily due to the inclusion of Muscle Shoals and an unplanned outage of a scalper at the Neuf-Brisach facility. The overall impact on Adjusted EBITDA of the outage was €6 million, but half of this amount is expected to be recovered in the fourth quarter. The increase in shipments and revenue in the third quarter of 2015 primarily reflects both the newly acquired Muscle Shoals facility and strong growth in automotive rolled products despite the outage at Neuf-Brisach.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, Adjusted EBITDA was €146 million which represented a 54% increase from €96 million in the same period in 2014, which primarily reflects the acquisition of Wise Metals.

Third quarter 2015 results in the A&T segment improved to €20 million of Adjusted EBITDA, a 9% increase in comparison to the third quarter of 2014. Shipments remained flat at 59k metric tons when compared to the same period last year. A&T results reflect improvements in the overall operational efficiency of the business. The segment performance also benefited from a positive foreign exchange of €2 million and a positive premium impact of €3 million to Adjusted EBITDA when compared to the third quarter of the prior year.

For the nine months ended September 30 2015, Adjusted EBITDA was €77 million, an increase of 5% from the same period in 2014, which includes a €22 million positive impact from foreign exchange. Shipments remained stable and Adjusted EBITDA per ton was €427, a 6% increase from the same period in 2014. Aerospace manufacturers continue to have a strong order book and the segment continues to restore and enhance aerospace capacity in our Issoire and Ravenswood facilities.

The AS&I segment achieved a record Adjusted EBITDA of €22 million in the third quarter of 2015, representing an increase of 29% from the third quarter 2014. This improvement was driven by a favorable mix and higher volumes within our automotive structures business, in particular in North America. Revenue increased by 14% to €263 million, while EBITDA per ton increased by 26% to €428 from the comparable period in 2014. The segment also benefited from a positive premium impact of €3 million in Adjusted EBITDA when compared to the third quarter of the prior year.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, Adjusted EBITDA was €62 million, an increase of 9% from the same period of prior year. Volumes increased 5% to 164k metric tons, reflecting the favorable North American automotive extrusion market.

 

    Net income

Net income in the third quarter 2015 was a net loss of €45 million compared with net income of €12 million in the third quarter of 2014. The decrease of €57 million is primarily attributable to a €20 million increase in depreciation charges and a €30 million increase in finance costs, mainly due to Muscle Shoals. A €22 million charge for metal lag in the current quarter compared to a €16 million positive impact in the third quarter of 2014 was offset by lower unrealized losses on derivatives of €1 million in the third quarter 2015 compared with losses of €35 million in the same period in the prior year. The gains or losses arising from derivative instruments relating to trading transactions are recorded in segment Adjusted EBITDA only when realized.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we reported a net loss of €123 million compared to net income of €70 million in the same period in 2014. Depreciation and impairment charges and finance costs were €67 million and €73 million higher, respectively, mainly reflecting the acquisition of Wise Metals. Unrecovered Midwest premium charges were €23 million, including €3 million in the third quarter of 2015. Additionally, there was a charge of €22 million for metal lag versus a positive €16 million benefit for the same period in 2014.

 

    Earnings per share

For the third quarter 2015, the fully diluted earnings per share was a negative €0.43 versus a positive €0.11 for the third quarter 2014. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the fully diluted earnings per share was a negative €1.18 versus a positive €0.65 per share for the same period in 2014. Excluding the impact of unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments, our earnings per share would have been a negative €0.43 and a positive €0.31 for the third quarter of 2015 and 2014, respectively. The change in earnings per share mainly reflects the higher depreciation, finance costs, and other factors described under “Net income”.

 

    Liquidity and cash flow

As of September 30, 2015, liquidity was €577 million, comprised of €139 million available under our factoring facilities, €97 million available under our asset based lending facilities, €10 million available under our revolving credit facilities, and €331 million of cash and cash equivalents. We expect liquidity to be at a similar or higher level at the end of the year. Adjusted free cash flow was a negative €5 million for the third quarter of 2015 versus a positive €19 million for the third quarter of 2014. The higher net cash flow from operating activities was fully offset by an increase in capital expenditures from €57 million to €85 million for the third quarter of 2015, as a result of growth initiatives, which account for €41 million of capital expenditures in the quarter.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, Adjusted free cash flow was a negative €5 million compared to a negative €16 million in the corresponding period in 2014. In the first nine months of 2015, the cash flow from operating activities totaled €244 million, excluding margin calls. This was offset by capital expenditures of €248 million compared to €127 million in the same period in 2014.

Capital expenditures in the first nine months of 2015 included €106 million of growth projects compared to €20 million in the same period of 2014.

Net debt at September 30, 2015 increased to €1.788 billion compared with €1.738 billion as of June 30, 2015 and our cash and cash equivalents totaled €331 million compared to €369 million at the end of the second quarter 2015. Our net debt at December 31, 2014, prior to the acquisition of Wise Metals, was €224 million and our cash and cash equivalent were €989 million.

Non-GAAP measures

In addition to the results reported in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (all standards applied by the Group have been endorsed by the European Union), this press release includes information regarding certain financial measures which are not prepared in accordance with IFRS (“non-GAAP measures”). The non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release are: Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA per metric ton, Earnings per share (EPS) fully diluted from continued and discontinued operations, excluding unrealized losses and gains on derivative instruments, Adjusted free cash flow and Net debt. Reconciliations to the most directly comparable IFRS financial measures are presented in the schedules to this press release. We believe these non-GAAP measures are important supplemental measures of our operating performance. By providing these measures, together with the reconciliations, we believe we are enhancing investors’ understanding of our business and our results of operations, as well as assisting investors in evaluating how well we are executing our strategic initiatives. However, these non-GAAP financial measures supplement our IFRS disclosures and should not be considered an alternative to the IFRS measures and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

In considering the financial performance of the business, management and our chief operational decision maker, as defined by IFRS, analyze the primary financial performance measure of Adjusted EBITDA in all of our business segments. The most directly comparable IFRS measure to Adjusted EBITDA is our net income or loss for the period. We believe Adjusted EBITDA, as defined below, is useful to investors and is used by our management for measuring profitability because it excludes the impact of certain non-cash charges, such as depreciation, amortization, impairment and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives as well as items that do not impact the day-to-day operations and that management in many cases does not directly control or influence. Therefore, such adjustments eliminate items which have less bearing on our core operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of Constellium and in comparison to other companies, many of which present an Adjusted EBITDA-related performance measure when reporting their results.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as profit from operations before depreciation, amortization and impairment, as adjusted to exclude losses on disposal of property, plant and equipment, acquisition and separation costs, restructuring costs, pension amendments and unrealized gains or losses on derivatives and foreign exchange differences on the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities, exceptional consulting costs, effects of purchase accounting inventory step-up adjustments, the effects of unwinding Wise’s previous hedging policies, losses incurred at Wise as a result of unrecovered Midwest premiums, start-up and development costs, acquisition and integration costs incurred in connection with business combinations, share-based compensation expense and the effect of favorable or unfavorable metal price lag (the financial impact of the timing difference between when aluminium prices included within our revenue are established and when aluminium purchase prices included in our cost of sales are established).

Adjusted EBITDA is the measure of performance used by management in evaluating our operating performance, in preparing internal forecasts and budgets necessary for managing our business and, specifically in relation to the exclusion of the effect of favorable or unfavorable metal price lag, this

measure allows management and the investor to assess operating results and trends without the impact of our accounting for inventories. We use the weighted average cost method in accordance with IFRS which leads to the purchase price paid for metal impacting our cost of goods sold and therefore profitability in the period subsequent to when the related sales price impacts our revenue. Management believes this measure also provides additional information used by our lending facilities providers with respect to the ongoing performance of our underlying business activities. Historically, we have used Adjusted EBITDA in calculating our compliance with the financial covenants under certain of our loan facilities.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a presentation made in accordance with IFRS, is not a measure of financial condition, liquidity or profitability and should not be considered as an alternative to profit or loss for the period, revenue or operating cash flows determined in accordance with IFRS.

Diluted earnings per share (EPS) from continued and discontinued operations excluding unrealized losses and gains on derivative instruments, excludes unrealized losses and gains on derivatives and the relevant tax impact from net income and is divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding.

Adjusted free cash flow is net cash flow from operating activities, after capital expenditure and excluding margin calls. Net debt is defined as borrowings plus or minus the fair value of cross currency interest swaps less cash and cash equivalents and cash pledged for the issuance of guarantees.

Management believes that Adjusted free cash flow is a useful measure of the net cash flow generated or used by the business as it takes into account both the cash generated or consumed by operating activities, including working capital, and the capital expenditure requirements of the business. Management believes that Net debt is a useful measure of indebtedness because it takes into account the cash and cash equivalent balances held by the Company as well as the total external debt of the Company. Management believes that EPS from operations excluding unrealized losses or gains on derivatives is useful to investors because it provides additional information that facilitates understanding the impact of unrealized gains or losses on derivatives on our results.

Diluted EPS, Net debt and Adjusted free cash flow are not presentations made in accordance with IFRS, and should not be considered as an alternative to EPS, borrowings or operating cash flows determined in accordance with IFRS.
