Tenneco Reports First Quarter Financial Results
- Record-high first quarter net income of $47 million, or 75-cents per diluted share
- EBIT up 59% to $94 million
- Total revenue increases 34% to $1.760 billion; OE revenue up 38%, AM revenue up 15%
LAKE FOREST, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 3, 2011--Tenneco Inc. (NYSE:TEN) reported higher first quarter net income of $47 million, or 75-cents per diluted share, versus net income of $7 million, or 11-cents per diluted share in first quarter 2010. Adjusted for the items below, net income was $39 million, or 63-cents per diluted share, up from $15 million, or 25-cents per diluted share a year ago. The tables in this press release reconcile GAAP results to non-GAAP results.
EBIT (earnings before interest, taxes and noncontrolling interests) increased to $94 million from $59 million in first quarter 2010. Adjusted EBIT was $95 million, up 48% versus $64 million the prior year. The EBIT increase was driven by higher OE volumes and aftermarket sales, and stronger margins on new light and commercial vehicle launches.
EBITDA including noncontrolling interests (EBIT before depreciation and amortization) was $145 million, compared with $114 million a year ago. Adjusted EBITDA including noncontrolling interests rose to $146 million, up 24% versus $118 million in first quarter 2010.
“We are off to a strong start in 2011 with our highest-ever quarterly revenue and strong first quarter earnings. These results demonstrate the progress we’re making in executing on our growth opportunities and driving operational excellence,” said Gregg Sherrill, chairman and CEO, Tenneco.
Adjusted first quarter 2011 and 2010 results:

First quarter 2011 adjustments:
- Restructuring and related expenses of $1 million pre-tax, or 1-cent per diluted share;
- Costs of $1 million pre-tax, or 1-cent per diluted share, related to retiring the company’s remaining 8 5/8 percent notes from the December 2010 refinancing transaction, which replaced them with 6 7/8 percent notes;
- Net tax benefits of $10 million, or 14-cents per diluted share, primarily related to U.S. taxable income with no associated tax expense due to the company’s net operating loss position and income generated in lower tax rate jurisdictions, partially offset by the impact of recording a valuation allowance against the tax benefit for losses in certain foreign jurisdictions.
First quarter 2010 adjustments:
- Restructuring and related expenses of $5 million pre-tax, or 6-cents per diluted share;
- Non-cash tax charges of $5 million, or 8-cents per diluted share, primarily related to the impact of not benefiting tax losses in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions.
REVENUE
Tenneco reported a 34% increase in revenue to $1.760 billion from $1.316 billion a year ago. The increase was driven by higher OE production volumes and aftermarket sales, and incremental revenue from new light and commercial vehicle launches. Commercial and specialty vehicle OE revenue increased 54% year-over-year to 10% of global OE revenue as a result of stronger volumes and launching new diesel aftertreatment business. Aftermarket revenue, with typically higher margins, was 17% of total revenue, versus 20% a year ago. Excluding substrate sales and $42 million in currency, revenue was $1.299 billion, up 23% from $1.055 billion in first quarter 2010.
EBIT MARGIN, GROSS MARGIN AND SGA&E
EBIT margin in the quarter improved to 5.3% from 4.5% in first quarter of last year. Adjusted for the items above, EBIT margin was 5.4%, up from 4.9% a year ago. The improvement was due to capitalizing on stronger OE and aftermarket volumes, new light and commercial vehicle launches and leveraging SGA&E (selling, general, administrative and engineering) spending. These factors more than offset the negative impact of a mix shift between OE and aftermarket generated revenue and a 62% rise in substrate sales.
Adjusted EBIT margins in the North America and Europe, South America and India reporting segments showed strong year-over-year improvement on higher volumes. North America adjusted EBIT margin was up 0.7 percentage points and the adjusted EBIT margin for Europe, South America and India was up 1.1 percentage points. Asia Pacific adjusted EBIT margin declined 2.6 percentage points. Higher production volumes and Tenneco’s strong operating performance in China were more than offset by significant industry production declines in Australia, costs associated with the start-up of new operations in China and Thailand, and higher engineering investments to support rapid growth in this region.
Gross margin percent in the quarter was 16.7%, 1.8 percentage points lower than 18.5% a year ago. The benefit of higher production volumes globally was mostly offset by the OE and aftermarket mix shift and higher year-over-year substrate sales. The company completely offset material cost increases in the quarter through material cost reduction actions and recoveries. However, material recoveries negatively impacted the gross margin percent. Together, the mix shift, substrate sales and material recoveries totaled a negative impact of 1.7 percentage points on gross margin percent.
Tenneco successfully leveraged higher revenues in the quarter with an improvement in SGA&E expense as a percent of sales to 8.2% versus 9.7% a year ago. SGA&E spending in the quarter was $144 million, versus $127 million a year ago, driven by investments in new facilities in China and Thailand, and higher engineering spending to support customer programs, technology applications and growth in emerging markets.
CASH
Tenneco’s cash performance is seasonal with a greater use of cash in the first quarter as the company prepares for OE platform launches and the aftermarket selling season. In the first quarter, Tenneco used $103 million in cash for operations, versus using $57 million a year ago, driven by a $75 million greater demand on working capital to support higher revenues.
Capital expenditures in the quarter were $41 million, compared with $27 million a year ago. The year-over-year increase includes investments to support customer launch programs and expansion in fast-growing markets.
DEBT
Tenneco’s net debt was $1.132 billion at March 31, 2011, down from $1.146 billion a year ago. The leverage ratio (net debt to adjusted EBITDA including noncontrolling interests) was 2.1x, also down from a year ago at 2.8x.
OUTLOOK
Industry production in the second quarter will see some impact from the crisis in Japan. Prior to these events, IHS Automotive forecasted a 9% increase in light vehicle production in the regions where Tenneco operates. However, the current forecast, while still up in most regions, has been adjusted to an overall 3% increase in light vehicle production to account for temporary customer disruptions. This includes an 11% year-over-year increase in North America, 6% in China, 16% in India and 7% in South America. The Japan impact has now lowered Europe production estimates to a 6% year-over-year decrease in the second quarter but still up for the year. In addition, weaker industry conditions – separate from the Japan crisis – are continuing in Australia with a forecasted 3% decline.
Despite the temporary disruptions to customer production, volumes are expected to recover by the end of the year. According to IHS Automotive, full-year production in the regions where Tenneco operates is still predicted to increase 7% versus last year, unchanged from previous forecasts.
On the commercial vehicle side of Tenneco’s business, the company is launching diesel aftertreatment programs with 13 commercial vehicle and engine manufacturers globally through 2012. These programs are launching in North America, Europe, China and South America. Today, Tenneco is adding Daimler and MAN, both in South America, to its list of nine previously announced commercial vehicle customers.
Tenneco also recently announced new aftermarket business in North America with seven customers, expected to generate more than $15 million in annual revenue. In the second quarter, the company anticipates incurring $12 million in changeover costs, primarily in the form of customer credits, related to this new business.
“There are uncertainties regarding OE production in the second quarter due to the Japan crisis. However, we expect the impact on our revenue will be partially offset in the quarter by overall stronger volumes globally and the lost production will fully recover by the end of the year,” said Sherrill. “We are on track with our growth strategies including investments and initiatives to expand in emerging markets and launch significant new emission control programs with our commercial vehicle customers. I am pleased with the execution on our commercial vehicle programs, involving new technologies and manufacturing processes.”

(2) EBITDA including noncontrolling interests represents income before interest expense, income taxes, noncontrolling interests and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA including noncontrolling interests is not a calculation based upon generally accepted accounting principles. The amounts included in the EBITDA including noncontrolling interests calculation, however, are derived from amounts included in the historical statements of income data. In addition, EBITDA including noncontrolling interests should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) attributable to Tenneco Inc. or operating income as an indicator of the company's operating performance, or as an alternative to operating cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Tenneco has presented EBITDA including noncontrolling interests because it regularly reviews EBITDA including noncontrolling interests as a measure of the company's performance. In addition, Tenneco believes its investors utilize and analyze our EBITDA including noncontrolling interests for similar purposes. Tenneco also believes EBITDA including noncontrolling interests assists investors in comparing a company's performance on a consistent basis without regard to depreciation and amortization, which can vary significantly depending upon many factors. However, the EBITDA including noncontrolling interests measure presented may not always be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to differences in the components of the calculation. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

(2) Tenneco presents the above reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP earnings measures primarily to reflect the results for the first quarters of 2011 and 2010 in a manner that allows a better understanding of the results of operational activities separate from the financial impact of decisions made for the long-term benefit of the company and other items impacting comparability between the periods. Adjustments similar to the ones reflected above have been recorded in earlier periods, and similar types of adjustments can reasonably be expected to be recorded in future periods. Using only the non-GAAP earnings measures to analyze earnings would have material limitations because its calculation is based on the subjective determinations of management regarding the nature and classification of events and circumstances that investors may find material. Management compensates for these limitations by utilizing both GAAP and non-GAAP earnings measures reflected above to understand and analyze the results of the business. The company believes investors find the non-GAAP information helpful in understanding the ongoing performance of operations separate from items that may have a disproportionate positive or negative impact on the company's financial results in any particular period. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

(2) Tenneco presents the above reconciliation of revenues in order to reflect the trend in the company's sales, in various product lines and geographical regions, separately from the effects of doing business in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Additionally, substrate sales include precious metals pricing, which may be volatile. Substrate sales occur when, at the direction of its OE customers, Tenneco purchases catalytic converters or components thereof from suppliers, uses them in its manufacturing processes and sells them as part of the completed system. While Tenneco original equipment customers assume the risk of this volatility, it impacts reported revenue. Excluding substrate sales removes this impact. Tenneco uses this information to analyze the trend in revenues before these factors. Tenneco believes investors find this information useful in understanding period to period comparisons in the company's revenues. |

(1) Tenneco presents debt net of cash balances because management believes it is a useful measure of Tenneco's credit position and progress toward reducing leverage. The calculation is limited in that the company may not always be able to use cash to repay debt on a dollar-for- dollar basis. | ||||||||||||||||
(2) EBITDA including noncontrolling interests represents income before interest expense, income taxes, noncontrolling interests and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA including noncontrolling interests is not a calculation based upon generally accepted accounting principles. The amounts included in the EBITDA including noncontrolling interests calculation, however, are derived from amounts included in the historical statements of income data. In addition, EBITDA including noncontrolling interests should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) attributable to Tenneco Inc. or operating income as an indicator of the company's operating performance, or as an alternative to operating cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Tenneco has presented EBITDA including noncontrolling interests because it regularly reviews EBITDA including noncontrolling interests as a measure of the company's performance.

Tenneco also believes EBITDA including noncontrolling interests assists investors in comparing a company's performance on a consistent basis without regard to depreciation and amortization, which can vary significantly depending upon many factors. However, the EBITDA including noncontrolling interests measure presented may not always be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to differences in the components of the calculation. | ||||||||||||||||
(3) Adjusted EBITDA including noncontrolling interests is presented in order to reflect the results in a manner that allows a better understanding of operational activities separate from the financial impact of decisions made for the long term benefit of the company and other items impacting comparability between the periods. Similar adjustments to EBITDA including noncontrolling interests have been recorded in earlier periods, and similar types of adjustments can reasonably be expected to be recorded in future periods. The company believes investors find the non-GAAP information helpful in understanding the ongoing performance of operations separate from items that may have a disproportionate positive or negative impact on the company's financial results in any particular period. | ||||||||||||||||
(4) Tenneco presents the above reconciliation of the ratio of debt net of cash to annual adjusted EBITDA including noncontrolling interests to show trends that investors may find useful in understanding the company's ability to service its debt. For purposes of this calculation, annual adjusted EBITDA including noncontrolling interests is used as an indicator of the company's performance and debt net of cash is presented as an indicator of our credit position and progress toward reducing our financial leverage. This reconciliation is provided as supplemental information and not intended to replace the company's existing covenant ratios or any other financial measures that investors may find useful in describing the company's financial position. See notes (1), (2) and (3) for a description of the limitations of using debt net of cash, EBITDA including noncontrolling interests and adjusted EBITDA including noncontrolling interests. | ||||||||||||||||
