Full Year Results

-- Announced transformative portfolio improvements by divesting Performance Products and Solutions (PP&S) segment and signing definitive agreement to acquire Clariant Masterbatch business

CLEVELAND, Jan. 28, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- PolyOne Corporation (NYSE: POL) today reported its full year and fourth quarter results for 2019. Full year GAAP earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.97 in 2019 compared to $1.09 in 2018.  Adjusted earnings per share in 2019 increased 12% to $1.69, from $1.51 in 2018. 

Fourth quarter GAAP earnings per share from continuing operations of $0.08 in 2019 compared to a loss of $0.02 per share in the fourth quarter of 2018.  Adjusted earnings per share of $0.34 in the fourth quarter of 2019 exceeded the $0.30 expected at the time of the company's fourth quarter outlook announcement.  The better than expected earnings were driven primarily by record performance from Advanced Composites. 

Special items for the fourth quarter of 2019 included acquisition-related costs, partially offset by a favorable mark-to-market pension adjustment.  Special items in the fourth quarter of 2018 are primarily related to an unfavorable mark-to-market pension adjustment (Attachment 3).

"Overall results for the fourth quarter were better than expected, and I'm pleased to report 12% adjusted EPS growth for the full year," said ROBERT M. PATTERSON, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, PolyOne Corporation. "Our investments in composites and other sustainable solutions helped to distinguish our performance, as Specialty Engineered Materials (SEM) led the way in both the fourth quarter and the full year."

The company noted that for the full year, SEM increased revenue and operating income by 16% and 20%, respectively.  Growth in composites and wire and cable applications more than offset lower sales and operating income in Europa and Asia primarily resulting from weaker automotive demand.  The latter demand conditions also negatively impacted the Color, Additives and Inks segment for the full year and fourth quarter. 

"I also want to highlight our Distribution business, which increased operating income to a new record of $75 million for the year despite challenging end market dynamics," Mr. Patterson continued.

"2019 marks our tenth consecutive year of adjusted EPS growth, which is a milestone accomplishment. It was also the year we took two major steps forward in our specialty transformation with the divestiture of PP&S for $775 million and the definitive agreement for the acquisition of Clariant Masterbatch," Mr. Patterson said. 

As the company disclosed in December, the Clariant transaction is expected to add $1.15 billion of annual revenue, and with run rate synergies will add $0.85 to adjusted EPS (excluding step-up of depreciation and amortization) and increase EBITDA from specialty applications to greater than 85% on a pro forma basis.

Commenting on the company's outlook, Mr. Patterson said, "We embark on the new year with clear momentum and confidence in our ability to deliver double-digit adjusted EPS growth in 2020 and beyond.  With a more specialty portfolio and less exposure to cyclical end markets, we believe our best days are ahead."

Senior management uses comparisons of adjusted net income from continuing operations attributable to PolyOne shareholders and diluted adjusted earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations attributable to PolyOne shareholders, excluding special items, to assess performance and facilitate comparability of results. Senior management believes these measures are useful to investors because they allow for comparison to PolyOne's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature, tend to obscure PolyOne's operating results due to the potential variability across periods based on timing, frequency and magnitude. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation from, or solely as alternatives to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Below is a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. See Attachment 3 for a definition and summary of special items.

Attachment 7

PolyOne Corporation

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)

(In millions, except per share data)

 

Senior management uses gross margin before special items and operating income before special items to assess performance and allocate resources because senior management believes that these measures are useful in understanding current profitability levels and how it may serve as a basis for future performance. In addition, operating income before the effect of special items is a component of PolyOne annual and long-term employee incentive plans and is used in debt covenant computations. Senior management believes these measures are useful to investors because they allow for comparison to PolyOne's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature, tend to obscure PolyOne's operating results due to the potential variability across periods based on timing, frequency and magnitude. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation from, or solely as alternatives to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Below is a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. See Attachment 3 for a definition and summary of special items.
