Minerals Technologies Reports Third Quarter 2022 Earnings Per Share of $0.41, or $1.35 Excluding Special Items
----------
Highlights:
Sales of $542 Million, Up 15% YoY, or Up 22% on a Constant Currency Basis
Operating Income of $36 Million, or $67 Million Excluding Special Items, Up 6% YoY
EPS of $1.35 Excluding Special Items, Up 4% YoY
Returned $17 Million to Shareholders Through Share Repurchases and Dividends
Completed Refinancing of Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan B, Extending Debt Maturities to 2027

NEW YORK, October 27, 2022 – Minerals Technologies Inc. (NYSE: MTX) (“MTI” or “the Company”) today reported diluted earnings per share of $1.35, excluding special items, for the third quarter ended October 2, 2022, compared with $1.30 in the prior year. Reported diluted earnings per share were $0.41 compared with $1.22 in the prior year.

“MTI delivered another solid quarter, with both top- and bottom-line growth despite softer demand in Europe, higher energy costs, and a slow rebound in China. We continue to navigate today’s environment by controlling costs, offsetting inflation with pricing actions, and maintaining operational discipline,” said Douglas T. Dietrich, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. “We remained focused on our strategic growth initiatives and our results this quarter further demonstrate MTI’s resilient portfolio and higher growth potential.”

Third Quarter 2022

Worldwide net sales were $541.9 million, up 15 percent versus the prior year and 3 percent lower sequentially. On a constant currency basis, sales grew 22 percent versus the prior year, as foreign exchange had an unfavorable impact on sales of $33 million, or 7 percentage points.

Operating income excluding special items was $67.2 million and represented 12.4 percent of sales. Reported operating income was $35.6 million.

The company recorded special items of $38.7 million in the third quarter, primarily consisting of $6.9 million for debt extinguishment expenses related to the refinancing of our credit facilities, and $31.1 million for litigation costs. The litigation costs were incurred to defend against, opportunistically settle, and establish a reserve for claims associated with certain talc products from the Barretts Minerals Inc. subsidiary. The Company’s position is that all talc products sold by Barretts Minerals Inc. are safe and these claims are without merit.

Segment Information

Performance Materials segment sales were $290.4 million in the third quarter, up 16 percent versus the prior year and 3 percent lower sequentially. On a constant currency basis, sales grew 24 percent versus the prior year, as foreign exchange had an unfavorable impact on sales of $20 million, or 8 percentage points.

Household, Personal Care & Specialty Products sales grew 16 percent versus the prior year and 1 percent sequentially on continued strong demand for consumer-oriented products. Metalcasting sales were 17 percent higher than the prior year and 4 percent lower sequentially, as strength in North America and other international locations offset a slower than expected rebound in China following COVID-19 restrictions. Environmental Products sales grew 20 percent versus the prior year on strength in remediation, wastewater, and filtration activities. Sales in this product line were 12 percent lower sequentially, primarily due to the timing of projects. Building Materials sales were 1 percent lower than the prior year and 3 percent lower sequentially as higher levels of project activity in North America offset slower activity levels in Europe.

Reported segment operating income was $37.9 million and represented 13.1 percent of sales. Operating income excluding special items was $38.2 million and represented 13.2 percent of sales, 20 basis points above the prior year and sequential quarter as pricing actions offset inflationary cost pressures.

The Performance Materials segment provides a wide range of bentonite-based and synthetic materials for consumer-oriented and industrial markets and for non-residential construction, environmental remediation, and infrastructure projects worldwide.

Specialty Minerals segment sales, which consist of Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC) Products and Processed Minerals Products, were $166.0 million in the third quarter, 13 percent above the prior year and 1 percent higher sequentially. On a constant currency basis, sales grew 18 percent versus the prior year, as foreign exchange had an unfavorable impact on sales of $7 million, or 5 percentage points.

PCC sales were 14 percent above the prior year and 3 percent higher sequentially on continued strong demand for Specialty PCC in consumer, automotive, and residential construction applications, and higher pricing across all product lines. PCC is used in paper and packaging, automotive and construction sealants, and the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Processed Minerals sales were 9 percent higher than the prior year, primarily driven by strong demand for Ground Calcium Carbonate products. Sales were 4 percent lower sequentially. Processed Minerals products are used in the building materials, polymers, ceramics, consumer products, paints and coatings, glass, and other manufacturing industries.

The segment reported an operating loss of $14.2 million, including the special item for talc-related litigation costs, which are associated with the Barretts Minerals Inc. subsidiary in this segment.

Operating income excluding special items was $16.9 million and represented 10.2 percent of sales. This segment was the most acutely impacted by softer demand in Europe as well as higher energy costs and the timing lag of contractual price adjustments.

Refractories segment sales were $85.5 million in the third quarter, up 13 percent versus the prior year on the continued ramp-up of new business volumes and higher pricing to cover inflationary cost increases. Sales were 8 percent lower sequentially due to softer global steel conditions. On a constant currency basis, sales grew 20 percent versus the prior year, as foreign exchange had an unfavorable impact on sales of $6 million, or 7 percentage points.

Segment operating income was $12.4 million and remained strong at 14.5 percent of sales. The Refractories segment provides products and services primarily to the worldwide steel industry.

To supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the following is a presentation of the Company's non-GAAP earnings per share, excluding special items, for the quarterly periods ended October 2, 2022, July 3, 2022 and October 3, 2021, and the nine month periods ended October 2, 2022 and October 3, 2021 and a reconciliation to reported earnings per share for such periods. The Company's management believes these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance as inclusion of such special items are not indicative of the ongoing operating results and thereby affect the comparability of results between periods. The Company believes inclusion of these non-GAAP measures also provides consistency in its financial reporting and facilitates investors' understanding of historic operating trends.

Free cash flow is defined as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures. The following is a presentation of the Company's non-GAAP free cash flow for the quarterly periods ended October 2, 2022, July 3, 2022 and October 3, 2021, and the nine month periods ended October 2, 2022 and October 3, 2021 and a reconciliation to cash flow from operations for such periods. The Company's management believes this non-GAAP measure provides meaningful supplemental information as management uses this measure to evaluate the Company's ability to maintain capital assets, satisfy current and future obligations, repurchase stock, pay dividends and fund future business opportunities. Free cash flow is not a measure of cash available for discretionary expenditures since the Company has certain non-discretionary obligations such as debt service that are not deducted from the measure. The Company's definition of free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

To supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the following is a presentation of the Company's year over year sales growth on a constant currency basis, which is a non-GAAP measure, for the quarterly period ended October 2, 2022, constituting a reconciliation to GAAP sales growth set forth below. Constant currency basis eliminates the exchange rate fluctuations when calculating sales performance figures.

To supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the following is a presentation of the Company's non-GAAP operating income. This excludes special items (set forth in the above table), for the quarterly periods ended October 2, 2022, July 3, 2022, and October 3, 2021, and the nine month periods ended October 2, 2022 and October 3, 2021, constituting a reconciliation to GAAP operating income set forth above. The Company's management believe these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance as inclusion of such special items are not indicative of ongoing operating results and thereby affect the comparability of results between periods. The Company believes inclusion of these non-GAAP measures also provides consistency in its financial reporting and facilitates investors' understanding of historic operating trends.
