Net sales: $816.0 million, decreased 1.5%, but was up 0.3% on a constant currency basis

Underlying EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization): $251.2 million, increased 20.4%

DENVER & MONTREAL--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 7, 2014--Molson Coors Brewing Company (NYSE: TAP; TSX: TPX) today reported a 115.2 percent increase in underlying after-tax income for the first quarter 2014, driven by improved performance in all of its businesses, along with lower interest expense versus a year ago. U.S. GAAP net income from continuing operations attributable to MCBC increased $135.9 million due to strong underlying profit performance and an $81.2 million positive change in special and other non-core items in the quarter. (See Special and Other Non-Core Items below for details.) Worldwide beer volume decreased 0.1 percent, and net sales declined 1.5 percent in the first quarter of 2014.

Molson Coors president and chief executive officer Peter Swinburn said, “In the 1^st quarter, Molson Coors more than doubled underlying after-tax income, grew underlying EBITDA more than 20%, and expanded gross, operating and after-tax margins. Underlying earnings per share also more than doubled. U.S. GAAP after-tax earnings increased more than $135 million versus a year ago. The improvement across our company was consistent, with each of our businesses achieving improved operating margins, pretax earnings and EBITDA performance in the quarter.”

Swinburn added, “Our strong focus on our core brands, portfolio shift to above premium and value creating innovation is paying dividends. This strategy is underpinned by our Profit After Capital Charge, or PACC model, which aligns our entire team and each of our cash-use decisions with our priorities."

Underlying EBITDA and Free Cash Flow

Underlying EBITDA reached $251.2 million in the first quarter, a 20.4 percent increase from a year ago.

Underlying free cash flow through the first quarter of 2014 was a cash use of $64.6 million due to normal seasonality. This represents an increase in cash used of $15.7 million from the prior year, driven by timing of working capital changes, partially offset by higher net income.

Foreign Exchange

The Company’s first quarter underlying consolidated pretax income includes a slight positive impact from foreign currency movements. Foreign currency was $2.8 million positive in Europe and $2.4 million negative in Canada.

Effective Income Tax Rates

The Company’s first quarter effective income tax rate was 3 percent on a reported basis and 5 percent on an underlying basis, with the difference driven by special and other non-core items. On an underlying basis, our effective tax rate was approximately 6 percentage points lower than prior year primarily due to the release of valuation allowances in Europe and the favorable resolution of uncertain tax positions in the quarter.

Debt

Total debt at the end of the first quarter was $3.79 billion, and cash and cash equivalents totaled $337.6 million, resulting in net debt of $3.46 billion, which is $685 million lower than the prior year.

First Quarter Business Segment Results

The following are the Company’s first quarter 2014 results by business segment:

United States Business (MillerCoors)⁽²⁾

Molson Coors underlying U.S. segment equity income increased 4.9 percent to $123.1 million in the quarter.

MillerCoors Operating and Financial Highlights

MillerCoors underlying net income for the quarter increased 7.4 percent to $291.9 million, driven by positive pricing and sales mix, cost savings, and lower marketing spending primarily due to timing differences versus last year.

MillerCoors domestic sales to retailers (STRs) declined 3.4 percent for the quarter. Domestic sales to wholesalers (STWs) decreased 3.0 percent. Domestic net revenue per hectoliter, which excludes contract brewing and company-owned-distributor sales, grew 3.3 percent primarily due to favorable net pricing and positive brand mix. Total company net revenue per hectoliter, including contract brewing and company-owned distributor sales, increased 3.4 percent. Third-party contract brewing volumes decreased 4.5 percent.

Cost of goods sold (COGS) per hectoliter increased 3.8 percent, driven by commodity and brewery inflation, lower volume and higher costs associated with brand innovation. Marketing, general and administrative (MG&A) expense decreased 6.4 percent, driven primarily by timing of media investments and lower employee-related expenses.

Depreciation and amortization expenses for MillerCoors in the first quarter were $79.1 million, and additions to tangible and intangible assets totaled $107.2 million.

Canada Business

Canada underlying pretax income increased 20.5 percent to $35.3 million in the quarter and increased 28.7 percent on a constant currency basis. Higher net pricing and lower MG&A expense drove the increase in Canada, despite lower volume in the quarter. A decrease in the Canadian dollar versus the U.S. dollar resulted in a $2.4 million negative foreign exchange impact on underlying pretax income in the quarter.

STRs decreased 5.7 percent on a reported basis in the first quarter, driven by weak consumer demand and promotional challenges, as well as our change to a Gregorian calendar and the loss of the Modelo brands this year. Excluding the Modelo brands from our results this year and last year⁽³⁾, our market share declined approximately one-half share point. First quarter sales volume for Molson Coors Canada decreased 5.5 percent on a reported basis. Net sales per hectoliter increased 1.5 percent in local currency, driven by positive net pricing.

COGS per hectoliter increased 0.7 percent in local currency, driven by fixed-cost deleverage and brewing and material inflation, partially offset by cost savings. MG&A expense decreased 10.2 percent in local currency, driven by results of cost savings initiatives and overhead cost reductions, along with a year-over-year difference in the timing of marketing and sales spending.

Europe Business

Europe underlying pretax income increased $21.5 million to $16.2 million in the quarter, driven by volume growth, cost savings, and a $2.8 million benefit from favorable foreign currency movements.

Europe sales volume increased 5.6 percent, due to strong execution and favorable weather this year. In the first quarter, we grew or maintained volume in all of our markets in the region, with the exception of Serbia. Europe net sales per hectoliter decreased 2.7 percent in local currency primarily due to negative channel, customer and brand mix.

COGS per hectoliter decreased 8.0 percent in local currency as a result of cost savings, fixed-cost leverage from higher volumes, and lower logistics expenses.

MG&A expenses decreased 7.0 percent in local currency, due to lower overhead costs and an $11.3 million non-core gain related to the favorable resolution of an indirect-tax audit (excluded from Europe underlying pretax income), partially offset by increased marketing and sales investments.

International Business

The International segment posted an underlying pretax loss of $3.0 million in the first quarter, an improvement of $2.2 million from a year ago, due to strong volume and profit growth in Mexico and Latin America, improved performance in China, and lower overhead expenses.

Total International sales volume, including royalty volume, increased 13.7 percent, primarily due to strong Coors Light growth in Mexico and Latin America and the addition of the Australia market, partially offset by industry weakness in our Ukraine and Russia license markets. Net sales per hectoliter increased 6.8 percent, driven by higher net pricing in China, the addition of Australia, and contract brewing sales in India.

COGS per hectoliter increased 6.5 percent, due to the addition of Australia and contract brewing volume in India. International MG&A expense decreased 2.0 percent, driven by lower overhead expenses.

Corporate

Underlying Corporate pretax expenses totaled $65.1 million for the first quarter, a $16.4 million improvement versus the prior year driven by lower interest expense due to debt repayments and lower G&A costs.

Change in Interim Period Accounting for Advertising Expenses

Effective the first quarter of 2014, we changed our policy for recognizing advertising expenses during interim periods and have applied this change retrospectively. The change in interim accounting affects the timing of advertising expenses over interim periods but has no impact on full year results. We have provided the impact to fiscal year 2013 quarterly results on our investor relations website.

Special and Other Non-Core Items

The following special and other non-core items have been excluded from underlying pretax earnings.

During the quarter, Molson Coors recognized special items resulting in a net $52.5 million pretax benefit. This benefit was largely driven by $63.2 million received from Modelo for the early termination of the Modelo Molson joint venture in Canada. This receipt was partially offset by a charge of $4.9 million related to the accelerated amortization of the remaining carrying value of the Modelo brand intangible asset in Canada. Additionally, we recognized charges of $5.8 million during the quarter related to restructuring programs.

During the quarter, MillerCoors reported $0.7 million in restructuring-related special charges. Our portion of these charges is $0.3 million at our 42 percent economic ownership share.

Other non-core items resulted in $10.9 million of pretax income, which was primarily driven by an $11.3 million gain associated with the release of an indirect-tax reserve in Europe, partially offset by unrealized mark-to-market losses on commodity hedges.

Footnotes:

⁽¹⁾ The Company calculates non-GAAP underlying after-tax income, underlying EBITDA and underlying free cash flow by excluding special and other non-core items from the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, which is net income from continuing operations attributable to MCBC for both underlying after-tax income and underlying EBITDA and net cash provided by operating activities for underlying free cash flow. For further details regarding these adjustments, please see the section “Special and Other Non-Core Items,” along with tables for reconciliations to the nearest U.S. GAAP measures. Unless otherwise indicated, all $ amounts are in U.S. Dollars and all quarterly comparative results are for the Company’s fiscal first quarter ended March 31, 2014, compared to the fiscal first quarter ended March 30, 2013. Additionally, all per-hectoliter calculations exclude contract brewing and non-owned factored beverage volume in the denominator but include the financial impact of these sales in the numerator, unless otherwise indicated.

⁽²⁾ MillerCoors, a U.S. joint venture of Molson Coors Brewing Company and SABMiller plc, was launched on July 1, 2008. Molson Coors has a 42 percent economic interest in MillerCoors, which is accounted for using the equity method. Molson Coors’ interest in MillerCoors results, along with certain adjustments under U.S. GAAP, is reflected in “Equity Income in MillerCoors.” This release includes reconciliation from MillerCoors Net Income to Molson Coors Brewing Company Equity Income in MillerCoors and Non-GAAP U.S. Segment Underlying Pretax Income (see Table 6).

⁽³⁾ Excludes the Modelo brands from our Canada STR results in first quarter 2014 and the prior year period. The Company terminated on February 28, 2014, its joint venture that sold the Modelo brands in Canada, and control of the brands reverted to Anheuser-Busch InBev.

Constant currency is a non-GAAP measure utilized by Molson Coors management to measure performance, excluding the impact of foreign currency movements. As we operate in various foreign countries where the local currency may strengthen or weaken significantly versus the U.S. dollar or other currencies used in operations, we utilize a constant currency measure as an additional metric to evaluate the underlying performance of each business without consideration of foreign currency movements. This information is non-GAAP and should be viewed as a supplement to (not a substitute for) our reported results of operations under U.S. GAAP. We calculate the impact of foreign exchange on net sales, pretax income and non-GAAP underlying pretax income using the following steps:

		1.			Multiply our current period local currency operating results (that also include the impact of the comparable prior-period currency hedging activities) by the weighted average foreign exchange rates used to translate the financial statements in the comparable prior year period. The result is the current-period operating results in U.S. dollars, as if foreign exchange rates had not changed from the prior-year period.

		2.			Subtract the result in #1 from the unadjusted current-period reported operating result in U.S. dollars (U.S. GAAP measure). This difference reflects the impact of foreign currency translational gains/losses included in the current-period results.

		3.			Determine the amount of actual non-operating foreign currency gains/losses realized as a result of hedging activities and activities transacted in a currency other than the functional currency of each legal entity.

		4.			Add the results of steps 2 and 3 above. This sum equals the total impact of foreign currency translational gains/losses and realized gains/losses from foreign currency transactions. This is the value shown in the “Foreign Exchange $ Impact” column within the table above.

In addition to financial measures presented on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"), we also present pretax and after-tax "underlying income," "underlying income per diluted share," "underlying effective tax rate," and "underlying free cash flow," which are non-GAAP measures and should be viewed as supplements to (not substitutes for) our results of operations presented under U.S. GAAP. We also present underlying earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("underlying EBITDA") as a non-GAAP measure. Our management uses underlying income, underlying income per diluted share, underlying EBITDA, underlying effective tax rate and underlying free cash flow as measures of operating performance to assist in comparing performance from period to period on a consistent basis; as a measure for planning and forecasting overall expectations and for evaluating actual results against such expectations; in communications with the board of directors, stockholders, analysts and investors concerning our financial performance; as useful comparisons to the performance of our competitors; and as metrics of certain management incentive compensation calculations. We believe that underlying income, underlying income per diluted share, underlying EBITDA, underlying effective tax rate and underlying free cash flow performance are used by and are useful to investors and other users of our financial statements in evaluating our operating performance because they provide an additional tool to evaluate our performance without regard to special and non-core items, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods and book value of assets and capital structure. We have provided reconciliations of all non-GAAP measures to their nearest U.S. GAAP measures and have consistently applied the adjustments within our reconciliations in arriving at each non-GAAP measure. These adjustments consist of special items from our U.S. GAAP financial statements as well as other non-core items, such as acquisition and integration related costs, unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses, and gains and losses on sales of non-operating assets, included in our U.S. GAAP results that warrant adjustment to arrive at non-GAAP results. We consider these items to be necessary adjustments for purposes of evaluating our ongoing business performance and are often considered non-recurring. Such adjustments are subjective and involve significant management judgment.

Our net investment in MillerCoors is based on the carrying values of the net assets contributed to the joint venture, which is less than our proportionate share of underlying equity (42%) of MillerCoors (contributed by both Coors Brewing Company and Miller Brewing Company) by $665.1 million as of March 31, 2014. This basis difference, with the exception of certain non-amortizing items (goodwill, land, etc.), is being amortized as additional equity income over the remaining useful lives of the contributed long-lived amortizing assets.

The net adjustment is to eliminate all share-based compensation impacts related to pre-existing SABMiller plc equity awards held by former Miller Brewing Company employees employed by MillerCoors.
