“We delivered third quarter 2019 adjusted net income per diluted share of $0.76, in line with our estimates and matching our record performance for the same period in the prior year in spite of a $0.03 non-cash pension headwind in 2019. We fell short of the high end of our expectations largely as a result of pack related shortfalls and challenging economic conditions in Europe,” said Tony Allott, Chairman and CEO. “Our plastic container business again improved its results over the prior year period, with approximately three percent volume growth and strong operating performance. Our metal container and closures businesses performed largely in line with the prior year, however volumes in both businesses did not meet our expectations as a result of lower than expected pack volumes,” continued Mr. Allott. “Based on our performance to date and our outlook for the fourth quarter, which includes an earlier than anticipated end to the fruit and vegetable pack in the beginning of October, we are maintaining our guidance and tightening the range for our full

Adjusted net income per diluted share was $0.76 for the third quarter of 2019, after adjustments increasing net income per diluted share by $0.03. Adjusted net income per diluted share was $0.76 for the third quarter of 2018. A reconciliation of net income per diluted share to “adjusted net income per diluted share,” a Non-GAAP financial measure used by the Company that adjusts net income per diluted share for certain items, can be found in Tables A and B at the back of this press release.

Income before interest and income taxes for the third quarter of 2019 was $132.7 million, a decrease of $5.8 million as compared to $138.5 million for the third quarter of 2018, and margins decreased to 10.0 percent from 10.6 percent for the same periods. The decrease in income before interest and income taxes was primarily the result of rationalization charges of $3.2 million in the third quarter of 2019 as compared to $0.3 million in the prior year quarter. In addition, the metal container and closures businesses had slightly lower segment income, partially offset by higher segment income in the plastic container business. Additionally, each of the businesses was unfavorably impacted by the non-cash reduction in pension income in the current year quarter.

Interest and other debt expense before loss on early extinguishment of debt for the third quarter of 2019 was $26.7 million, a decrease of $1.5 million as compared to the third quarter of 2018. This decrease was primarily due to lower average outstanding borrowings as a result of the repayment of debt at the end of 2018 and lower weighted average interest rates due in part to the redemption on August 1, 2019 of all outstanding 5½% Senior Notes due 2022. Loss on early extinguishment of debt of $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2019 was the result of the redemption of all outstanding 5½% Senior Notes in August 2019.

Net sales of the metal container business were $822.3 million for the third quarter of 2019, an increase of $24.5 million, or 3.1 percent, as compared to $797.8 million in the third quarter of 2018. This increase was primarily the result of the pass through of higher raw material and other manufacturing costs, partially offset by a less favorable mix of products sold and the impact of unfavorable foreign currency translation. Unit volumes were flat versus the prior year period, as lower volumes with U.S. fruit and vegetable pack customers were offset by volume increases with other customers, including for soup.

Segment income of the metal container business in the third quarter of 2019 decreased $5.8 million to $81.1 million as compared to $86.9 million in the third quarter of 2018, and segment income margin decreased to 9.9 percent from 10.9 percent over the same periods. The decrease in segment income was principally due to a less favorable mix of products sold, higher rationalization charges and lower pension income, partially offset by production efficiencies in the U.S. due in part to a larger amount of finished goods inventory produced in the current year quarter in anticipation of higher sales volume. Rationalization charges for the third quarters of 2019 and 2018 were $3.0 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

Net sales of the closures business were $353.4 million in the third quarter of 2019, a decrease of $7.4 million, or 2.1 percent, as compared to $360.8 million in the third quarter of 2018. This decrease was primarily the result of the impact of unfavorable foreign currency translation and a less favorable mix of products sold. Unit volumes in the third quarter of 2019 were flat as compared to the prior year quarter, with higher unit volume demand in the U.S. beverage markets largely offset by lower unit volumes in international markets.

Segment income of the closures business for the third quarter of 2019 decreased $2.5 million to $44.8 million as compared to $47.3 million in the third quarter of 2018, and segment income margin decreased to 12.7 percent from 13.1 percent in the third quarter of 2018. The decrease in segment income was primarily due to a less favorable mix of products sold and lower pension

Net sales of the plastic container business were $145.6 million in the third quarter of 2019, a decrease of $2.8 million, or 1.9 percent, as compared to $148.4 million in the third quarter of 2018. This decrease was principally due to a less favorable mix of products sold and the pass through of lower raw material costs, partially offset by higher volumes of approximately three percent.

Segment income of the plastic container business for the third quarter of 2019 was $11.4 million, an increase of $2.9 million as compared to $8.5 million in the third quarter of 2018, and segment income margin increased to 7.8 percent from 5.7 percent over the same periods. The increase in segment income was primarily attributable to higher volumes, strong operating performance and the prior year unfavorable impact of costs associated with the start-up of the new manufacturing facility in Fort Smith, Arkansas, partially offset by lower pension income and a less favorable mix of products sold.

Net income for the first nine months of 2019 was $159.0 million, or $1.43 per diluted share, as compared to net income of $185.8 million, or $1.66 per diluted share, for the first nine months of 2018. Adjusted net income per diluted share for the first nine months of 2019 was $1.78, an increase of over 5.0 percent as compared to $1.69 in the prior year period, after adjustments increasing net income per diluted share by $0.35 for the first nine months of 2019 and by $0.03 for the first nine months of 2018.

Net sales for the first nine months of 2019 increased $63.2 million, or 1.9 percent, to $3.44 billion as compared to $3.38 billion for the first nine months of 2018. This increase was primarily a result of the pass through of higher raw material and other manufacturing costs in the metal container business and higher volumes in the metal and plastic container businesses, partially offset by the impact of unfavorable foreign currency translation, a less favorable mix of products sold and slightly lower unit volumes in the closures business.

Income before interest and income taxes for the first nine months of 2019 was $288.0 million, a decrease of $46.8 million from the same period in 2018, and margins decreased to 8.4 percent from 9.9 percent for the same periods. The decrease in income before interest and income taxes and margins was primarily due to $47.1 million of higher rationalization charges in the first nine months of 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 due principally to the previously announced footprint optimization plan for the metal container business, which includes the closing of two metal container manufacturing facilities in the fourth quarter of 2019 and the resulting withdrawal from the Central States Pension Fund that required the recognition of a pre-tax rationalization charge of $36.6 million for the present value of the estimated withdrawal liability. Income before interest and income taxes was also negatively impacted by lower pension income, a less favorable mix of products sold, unfavorable foreign currency translation and slightly lower unit volumes in the closures business. These decreases were partially offset by strong operating performance in all businesses, production efficiencies from a larger amount of finished goods inventory produced in the current year period in the metal container business in anticipation of higher sales volume, the favorable impact from the lagged pass through of lower resin costs in the current year period as compared to the unfavorable impact from higher resin costs in the prior year period in the closures business, higher volumes in the metal and plastic container businesses and the prior year unfavorable impact of costs associated with the start-up of two new manufacturing facilities.

Interest and other debt expense before loss on early extinguishment of debt for the first nine months of 2019 was $82.2 million, a decrease of $6.4 million as compared to the same period in 2018. This decrease was primarily due to lower average outstanding borrowings. Loss on early extinguishment of debt of $1.7 million in 2019 was the result of the redemption in August 2019 of all outstanding 5½% Senior Notes. Loss on early extinguishment of debt of $2.5 million in 2018 was the result of the redemption of all remaining outstanding 5% Senior Notes in April 2018 and the amendment to the senior secured credit facility in May 2018.

The Company maintained its estimate of adjusted net income per diluted share for the full year of 2019 and tightened the range from $2.10 to $2.20 to a range of $2.12 to $2.17, which includes an unfavorable non-cash pension impact of approximately $0.13 per diluted share resulting from significant market declines in investment values at the end of 2018 that negatively impacted the assets held in the Company’s pension plans. This estimate compares to record adjusted net income per diluted share for the full year of 2018 of $2.08. Adjusted net income per diluted share excludes rationalization charges and loss on early extinguishment of debt.

The Company is providing an estimate of adjusted net income per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2019 in the range of $0.34 to $0.39, which includes an unfavorable non-cash pension impact of approximately $0.03 per diluted share and reflects an abrupt end to the fruit and vegetable pack in the beginning of October. This estimate compares to record adjusted net income per diluted share of $0.38 in the fourth quarter of 2018. Adjusted net income per diluted share excludes rationalization charges and loss on early extinguishment of debt.

(1) 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 and the loss on early extinguishment of debt 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. The loss on early extinguishment of debt consists of third party fees and expenses incurred or debt costs written off that are viewed by management as part of the cost of prepayment of debt 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.
