Trinseo (NYSE: TSE), a specialty material solutions provider, today reported its second quarter 2024 financial results. Net sales of $920 million in the second quarter decreased 4% versus prior year. Lower sales volumes in Polystyrene, Plastics Solutions and Latex Binders were partially offset by higher sales volumes in Engineered Materials, which resulted in a 6% decrease in net sales. Higher price led to a 1% increase.

Second quarter net loss of $68 million was $281 million better than prior year primarily due to a $349 million non-cash impairment charge taken in the prior year partially offset by higher interest and tax expenses in the current year. The second quarter results included a $13.5 million non-cash after-tax charge for an increase in valuation allowance on deferred tax assets in China. Adjusted EBITDA of $67 million, which included an unfavorable impact of $10 million from net timing, was $10 million above prior year with increases across all business segments except Plastics Solutions.

Commenting on the Company’s second quarter performance, Frank Bozich, President and Chief Executive Officer of Trinseo, said, “The market conditions that we saw at the end of the first quarter continued through the second quarter as expected, resulting in our highest Adjusted EBITDA quarter since the first half of 2022 despite the headwind from unfavorable net timing. We continued to see positive momentum in Engineered Materials as moderating input costs, normalization of MMA market dynamics, and steady demand for our downstream PMMA applications led the segment to record its highest sales volumes and Adjusted EBITDA since the second quarter of 2022. We continue to be pleased by the impact of our restructuring initiatives and the resulting improvements we are seeing in our financial results.”

Second Quarter Results and Commentary by Business Segment

  • Engineered Materials net sales of $230 million for the quarter increased 12% versus prior year including a 17% impact from higher sales volume of MMA and formulated products for automotive, consumer electronics and lighting applications, partially offset by an impact of 5% from lower price due to a higher percentage of MMA sales in the current year. Adjusted EBITDA of $25 million was $13 million above prior year primarily due to higher volumes, as mentioned above, as well as higher margin.
  • Latex Binders net sales of $252 million for the quarter decreased 1% versus prior year including a 5% impact from lower volumes primarily in Europe paper and carpet applications, partially offset by a 4% impact from higher price from the pass-through of higher raw material costs. Adjusted EBITDA of $26 million was $3 million above prior year due to improved regional and product mix and higher plant utilization in the current year. Sales volumes sold to CASE applications accounted for a record 12% of total segment volumes in the second quarter and increased 8% over prior year.
  • Plastics Solutions net sales of $263 million for the quarter were 7% below prior year including a 5% decrease from lower sales volume, from a planned polycarbonate turnaround, and a 1% decrease from lower price. Adjusted EBITDA of $16 million was $8 million below prior year due to lower polycarbonate volumes and an unfavorable timing variance from decreasing styrene costs during the quarter.
  • Polystyrene net sales of $175 million for the quarter were 21% below prior year including a 28% impact from lower sales volume. This was a result of lower styrene-related sales following the closure of Terneuzen, the Netherlands styrene production facility, an intentional reduction of low-margin sales to optimize plant operations and sales mix, as well as customer destocking amid a declining price environment. This was partially offset by an 8% impact from higher price from the pass-through of higher styrene costs. Adjusted EBITDA of $7 million was $5 million above prior year due to higher margins in Europe from decreasing raw material costs.
  • Americas Styrenics Adjusted EBITDA of $16 million for the quarter was $3 million above prior year due to higher styrene margins in the current year.

2024 Outlook

  • Third quarter 2024 net loss of $42 million to $52 million
  • Third quarter 2024 Adjusted EBITDA of $65 million to $75 million

Commenting on the third quarter outlook, Bozich said, “We expect market conditions and Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter to be similar to the second quarter. Normalized MMA market dynamics continue to support healthy margins in Engineered Materials, while seasonal improvements in building and construction and consumer electronics applications are expected to continue through the third quarter. We also expect free cash flow to turn positive in the second half of the year from continuing higher profitability and typical seasonal working capital improvements.”

Bozich continued, “We are pleased to see a sustained higher level of profitability following the asset and cost optimization actions that we implemented. While operating results have improved and we have more than adequate access to liquidity, we continue to focus on developing additional profit improvement initiatives while prioritizing liquidity preservation.”

Use of non-GAAP measures

In addition to using standard measures of performance and liquidity that are recognized in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), we use additional measures of income excluding certain GAAP items (“non-GAAP measures”), such as Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS and measures of liquidity excluding certain GAAP items, such as Free Cash Flow. We believe these measures are useful for investors and management in evaluating business trends and performance each period. These measures are also used to manage our business and assess current period profitability, as well as to provide an appropriate basis to evaluate the effectiveness of our pricing strategies. Such measures are not recognized in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance or liquidity, as applicable. The definitions of each of these measures, further discussion of usefulness, and reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures are provided in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Information presented herein.

Note 2: Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Performance Measures to Net Income

EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial performance measure, which is defined as income from continuing operations before interest expense, net; income tax provision; depreciation and amortization expense. We refer to EBITDA in making operating decisions because we believe it provides our management as well as our investors with meaningful information regarding the Company’s operational performance. We believe the use of EBITDA as a metric assists our board of directors, management and investors in comparing our operating performance on a consistent basis.

We also present Adjusted EBITDA as a non-GAAP financial performance measure, which we define as income from continuing operations before interest expense, net; income tax provision; depreciation and amortization expense; loss on extinguishment of long-term debt; asset impairment charges; gains or losses on the dispositions of businesses and assets; restructuring charges; acquisition related costs and benefits, and other items. In doing so, we are providing management, investors, and credit rating agencies with an indicator of our ongoing performance and business trends, removing the impact of transactions and events that we would not consider a part of our core operations.

Lastly, we present Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted EPS as additional performance measures. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA (defined beginning with net income from continuing operations, above), less interest expense, less the provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization, tax affected for various discrete items, as appropriate. Adjusted EPS is calculated as Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per weighted average diluted shares outstanding for a given period. We believe that Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted EPS provide transparent and useful information to management, investors, analysts and other stakeholders in evaluating and assessing our operating results from period-to-period after removing the impact of certain transactions and activities that affect comparability and that are not considered part of our core operations.

There are limitations to using the financial performance measures noted above. These performance measures are not intended to represent net income or other measures of financial performance. As such, they should not be used as alternatives to net income as indicators of operating performance. Other companies in our industry may define these performance measures differently than we do. As a result, it may be difficult to use these or similarly-named financial measures that other companies may use, to compare the performance of those companies to our performance. We compensate for these limitations by providing reconciliations of these performance measures to our net income, which is determined in accordance with GAAP.

Amounts for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 excludes accelerated depreciation of $1.3 million and $3.0 million, respectively. The 2024 period charges are primarily related to the shortening of the useful life of certain assets related to the asset optimization and corporate restructuring plan. The 2023 period charges are primarily related to the shortening of the useful life of certain assets related to the asset restructuring plan as well as charges related to the shortening of the useful life of certain IT assets related to the Company’s transition to a new enterprise resource planning system.

For the same reasons discussed above, we are providing the following reconciliation of forecasted net loss to forecasted Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted EPS for the three months ended September 30, 2024. See “Note on Forward-Looking Statements” above for a discussion of the limitations of these forecasts. Totals may not sum due to rounding.

Reconciling items to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) are not typically forecasted by the Company based on their nature as being primarily driven by transactions that are not part of the core operations of the business and, as a result, cannot be estimated without unreasonable cost or uncertainty. As such, for the forecasted third quarter ended September 30, 2024, we have not included estimates for these items.

(g)

 

Weighted average shares presented for the purpose of forecasting EPS and Adjusted EPS assume that the Company will be in a net loss position for third quarter 2024, and therefore excludes the impact of potentially dilutive shares, as the inclusion of said shares would have an anti-dilutive effect. Further, the weighted average shares presented do not forecast significant future share transactions or events, such as repurchases, significant share-based compensation award grants, and changes in the Company’s share price. These are all factors which could have a significant impact on the calculation of EPS and Adjusted EPS during actual future periods.

Note 3: Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Liquidity Measures to Cash from Operations

The Company uses certain measures, such as Free Cash Flow as non-GAAP measures, to evaluate and discuss its liquidity position and results. Free Cash Flow is defined as cash from operating activities, less capital expenditures. We believe that Free Cash Flow provides an indicator of the Company’s ongoing ability to generate cash through core operations, as it excludes the cash impacts of various financing transactions as well as cash flows from business combinations that are not considered organic in nature. We also believe that Free Cash Flow provides management and investors with useful analytical indicators of our ability to service our indebtedness, pay dividends (when declared), and meet our ongoing cash obligations.

Free Cash Flow is not intended to represent cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP, and therefore, should not be used as alternatives for that measure. Other companies in our industry may define Free Cash Flow differently than we do. As a result, it may be difficult to use this or similarly-named financial measures that other companies may use, to compare the liquidity and cash generation of those companies to our own. The Company compensates for these limitations by providing the following detail, which is determined in accordance with GAAP.
