Exhibit 99.1
On December 7, 2020, Kraton Corporation (the “Company”) announced that Kraton Polymers LLC and Kraton Polymers Capital Corporation, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, intend to offer $400.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior notes due 2025 (the “New Notes”), subject to market and customary conditions.
The offering memorandum to be provided to prospective investors for the offering of the New Notes contains certain financial data for the last twelve months (“LTM”) ended September 30, 2020 on a pro forma basis to exclude the impact of the Company’s Cariflex business, which was sold to Daelim Industrial Co, Ltd. (“Daelim”) on March 6, 2020. Since not all of the information contained in the offering memorandum is included herein, certain cross references and defined terms may not appear in this Exhibit 99.1.

Other pro forma data, excluding the impact of Cariflex:(4) | ||||
Pro forma revenue | $ | 1,537,147 | ||
Pro forma Adjusted EBITDA(2)(3)(5) | $ | 256,266 | ||
Pro forma capital expenditures(1) | $ | 80,915 | ||
(1) | Excludes capital expenditures incurred by KFPC, our 50/50 joint venture with FPCC. |
(2) | The majority of our consolidated inventory is measured using first in, first out (“FIFO”) basis of accounting. As part of our pricing strategy, we measure our business performance using the estimated current replacement cost (“ECRC”) of our inventory and cost of goods sold. Our ECRC is based on our current expectation of the current cost of our significant raw material inputs. ECRC is developed monthly based on actual market-based contracted rates and spot market purchase rates that are expected to occur in the period. We then adjust the value of the significant raw material inputs and their associated impact to finished goods to the current replacement cost to arrive at an ECRC value for inventory and cost of goods sold. The result of this revaluation from the GAAP carrying value creates the spread between GAAP and ECRC. We maintain our perpetual inventory in our global enterprise resource planning system, where the carrying value of our inventory is determined. With inventory valued under GAAP and ECRC, we then have the ability to report cost of goods sold and therefore Adjusted EBITDA under both our GAAP convention and ECRC. |
(3) | Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA net of the impact of the spread between the FIFO basis of accounting and ECRC and net of the impact of items we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance. We explain how each adjustment is derived and why we believe it is helpful and appropriate in the reconciliation below. You are encouraged to evaluate each adjustment and the reasons we consider it appropriate for supplemental analysis. As an analytical tool, Adjusted EBITDA is subject to the limitations applicable to EBITDA described above, as well as the following limitations: |
• | due to volatility in raw material prices, Adjusted EBITDA may, and often does, vary substantially from EBITDA, net income and other performance measures, including net income calculated in accordance with GAAP; and |
• | Adjusted EBITDA may, and often will, vary significantly from EBITDA calculations under the terms of our debt agreements and should not be used for assessing compliance or non-compliance with financial covenants under our debt agreements. |
(4) | The pro forma financial information presented gives effect to the sale of Cariflex to Daelim as if the sale transaction occurred on October 1, 2019 and represent Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and capital expenditures for the twelve months ended September 30, 2020 as adjusted to exclude the actual impact of the Cariflex business as if it had been excluded in our consolidated results of operations for the entire LTM period. The pro forma financial information also reflects the impact of the Isoprene Rubber Supply Agreement (“IRSA”) entered into with Daelim as if it had been executed on October 1, 2019. Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA also reflects the recovery of certain fixed costs in connection with the sale of Cariflex. The pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations of future periods or indicative of results that would have actually occurred had the transactions been completed as of the date of, or as of the beginning of the periods presented. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements have been derived from historical financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP and are presented based upon information currently available and certain assumptions the Company believes are reasonable. |
(5) | Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA for the LTM ended September 30, 2020 is calculated as reported Adjusted EBITDA for the LTM period, less the actual impact of Cariflex and the IRSA during such period (approximately $38.3 million), plus the run-rate impact of the recovery of certain fixed costs and deferred income, in each case, in connection with sales under the IRSA as if it had been executed on October 1, 2019 (approximately $37.9 million). |
