STAMFORD, CT, April 24, 2013 -- Silgan Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq:SLGN), a leading supplier of rigid packaging for shelf-stable food and other consumer goods products, today reported first quarter 2013 net income of $25.4 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, as compared to first quarter 2012 net income of $32.8 million, or $0.47 per diluted share. Adjusted net income per diluted share was $0.46 for the first quarter of 2013 as compared to $0.51 for the first quarter of 2012, after adjustments increasing net income per diluted share by $0.08 for the first quarter of 2013 and $0.04 for the first quarter of 2012. A reconciliation of net income per diluted share to “adjusted net income per diluted share,” a Non-GAAP financial measure used by the Company, which adjusts net income per diluted share for certain items, can be found in Tables A and B at the back of this press release.

“We are pleased with our first quarter 2013 results, as our businesses performed as expected and we delivered adjusted net income per diluted share of $0.46, despite a temporarily high tax rate. In addition, we successfully completed our tender offer for $250 million of our stock and acquired a small closures operation that expands our closures presence in Australia,” said Tony Allott, President and CEO. “Our metal container business benefited from strong soup and pet food sales in North America and continued to reduce inventory in line with our working capital goals. Our plastic container business delivered solid operating performance in the face of the negative impact of increases in resin costs and volume realignment in our legacy business. Our closure business was also negatively impacted by significant increases in resin costs and the devaluation of currency in Venezuela. Macroeconomic conditions in Europe continue to be challenging with little sign of economic recovery in the near term,” continued Mr. Allott. “Based on our first quarter performance, we remain positive in our outlook for the year and as a result are confirming our full year 2013 earnings estimate of adjusted net income per diluted share in the range of $3.05 to $3.20,” concluded Mr. Allott.
Net sales for the first quarter of 2013 were $795.7 million, an increase of $27.3 million, or 3.6 percent, as compared to $768.4 million in 2012. This increase was the result of an increase in net sales in the metal container and plastic container businesses, slightly offset by a decrease in net sales in the closures business.
Income from operations for the first quarter of 2013 was $58.1 million, a decrease of $7.7 million, or 11.7 percent, as compared to $65.8 million for the first quarter of 2012, and operating margin decreased to 7.3 percent from 8.6 percent for the same periods. The decrease in income from operations was attributable to lower income from operations in the metal container and closures businesses, partially offset by an increase in income from operations in the plastic container operations. Income from operations for the first quarter of 2013 included the recognition of a charge of $3.0 million in selling, general and administrative expenses for the remeasurement of net assets in the Venezuela operations due to a currency devaluation, rationalization charges of $1.4 million and plant start-up costs of $0.8 million. Income from operations for the first quarter of 2012 included rationalization charges of $3.6 million and plant start-up costs of $1.0 million.

Interest and other debt expense before loss on early extinguishment of debt for the first quarter of 2013 was $15.3 million, a decrease of $0.3 million as compared to 2012. Loss on early extinguishment of debt of $2.1 million was a result of the prepayment of $300.9 million of term debt under the senior secured credit facility.
The effective tax rate was 37.5 percent and 34.7 percent for the first quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2013 was unfavorably impacted by the cumulative adjustment of increases in the enacted tax rates in several foreign countries and the nondeductible portion of the charge for the remeasurement of net assets in the Venezuela operations. While the increase in the enacted tax rates significantly impacted the tax rate in the seasonally smaller first quarter of 2013 as a result of the cumulative adjustment of deferred taxes, it is not expected to significantly impact the full year tax rate.
Metal Containers
Net sales of the metal container business were $463.8 million for the first quarter of 2013, an increase of $18.9 million, or 4.2 percent, as compared to $444.9 million in 2012. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in unit volumes and higher average selling prices as a result of the pass through of higher raw material costs.
Income from operations of the metal container business in the first quarter of 2013 decreased $2.4 million to $39.6 million as compared to $42.0 million in 2012, and operating margin decreased to 8.5 percent from 9.4 percent over the same periods. The decrease in income from operations was primarily a result of the unfavorable comparison of a reduced inventory build in the first quarter of 2013 to a more significant inventory build in advance of labor negotiations in the first quarter of 2012, continued economic weakness in the European markets and an increase in rationalization charges, partially offset by an increase in unit volumes. Rationalization charges were $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2013 primarily for the shutdown of the Crystal City, Texas manufacturing facility and a restructuring of the Sacramento, California manufacturing facility. Plant start-up costs were $0.8 million and $1.0 million in the first quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Closures
Net sales of the closures business were $161.1 million in the first quarter of 2013, a decrease of $1.9 million, or 1.2 percent, as compared to $163.0 million in 2012. This decrease was primarily the result of the unfavorable impact from the devaluation of currency in Venezuela, partially offset by higher average selling prices as a result of the pass through of higher raw material costs.
Income from operations of the closures business for the first quarter of 2013 decreased $7.4 million to $10.6 million as compared to $18.0 million in 2012, and operating margin decreased to 6.6 percent from 11.0 percent over the same periods. The decrease in income from operations was primarily due to both the remeasurement of net assets and the ongoing operational impact from the devaluation of currency and political climate in Venezuela, the unfavorable impact from significant increases in resin costs and weak economic conditions in Europe, partially offset by lower rationalization charges. Rationalization charges were $2.1 million in the first quarter of 2012.
Plastic Containers
Net sales of the plastic container business were $170.8 million in the first quarter of 2013, an increase of $10.3 million, or 6.4 percent, as compared to $160.5 million in 2012. This increase was primarily due to the inclusion of net sales from the plastic food container operations acquired in August 2012, partially offset by lower volumes in the legacy operations.
Income from operations of the plastic container business for the first quarter of 2013 was $10.4 million, an increase of $1.5 million as compared to $8.9 million in 2012, and operating margin increased to 6.1 percent from 5.5 percent over the same periods. The increase in income from operations was primarily attributable to the inclusion of the plastic food container operations and lower rationalization charges, partially offset by the unfavorable impact from the lagged pass through of increases in resin prices in the current year quarter as compared to a favorable impact from resin in the prior year quarter and lower volumes in the legacy operations. Rationalization charges were $0.3 million and $1.5 million in the first quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Outlook for 2013
The Company confirmed its estimate of adjusted net income per diluted share for the full year of 2013 in the range of $3.05 to $3.20, which excludes rationalization charges, plant start-up costs, the loss on early extinguishment of debt and the impact from the remeasurement of net assets in Venezuela. This estimate compares to record adjusted net income per diluted share of $2.70 in the prior year.
The Company is providing an estimate of adjusted net income per diluted share for the second quarter of 2013, which excludes rationalization charges and plant start-up costs, in the range of $0.60 to $0.70. This estimate compares to record adjusted net income per diluted share of $0.55 in the second quarter of 2012. The estimate of adjusted net income per diluted share for the second quarter of 2013 includes the impact of the tender offer completed in February 2013, assumes a normal fruit and vegetable pack and continued strength in soup and pet food sales and includes the expected benefit from the plastic food container operations acquired in August 2012. These benefits are expected to more than offset the negative comparison of the resin pass through lag effect which benefited the second quarter of 2012 and anticipated lower unit volumes in the closures and plastic container businesses. Unit volumes in the closures and plastic container businesses benefited in the second quarter of 2012 from unseasonably warm weather. Unit volumes in the plastic container business in the second quarter of 2012 also benefited from accelerated sales in advance of certain customer shutdowns in the third quarter of 2012.

The Company has presented adjusted net income per diluted share for the periods covered by this press release, which measure is a Non-GAAP financial measure. The Company’s management believes it is useful to exclude rationalization charges, new plant start-up costs, costs attributable to announced acquisitions, the loss on early extinguishment of debt and the impact from the remeasurement of net assets in Venezuela from its net income per diluted share as calculated under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles because such Non-GAAP financial measure allows for a more appropriate evaluation of its operating results. While rationalization costs are incurred on a regular basis, management views these costs more as an investment to generate savings rather than period costs. Costs attributable to announced acquisitions consist of third party fees and expenses that are viewed by management as part of the acquisition and not indicative of the on-going cost structure of the Company. Such Non-GAAP financial measure is not in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and should not be considered in isolation but should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and the other information presented herein. Additionally, such Non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered a substitute for net income per diluted share as calculated under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
