FERRO CORPORATION REPORTS THIRD-QUARTER 2019 RESULTS MACROECONOMIC UNCERTAINTIES CONTINUED TO PRESSURE TOP LINE; GROSS PROFIT MARGIN IMPROVED OVER PRIOR YEAR QUARTER; 2019 GUIDANCE REVISED FOR FOREIGN EXCHANGE |
| | | | |
| GAAP Diluted EPS of $0.16 |  | Despite lower sales revenue, we increased gross profit margins in each of our reporting segments compared to the prior year quarter. The increase in gross profit margins resulted from both lower raw material costs and our optimization initiatives. Looking ahead, we expect global macroeconomic uncertainty to continue for the balance of 2019 and into 2020. Customer sentiment remains cautious and order patterns continue to reflect limited visibility. Weakness persists in some key end markets, including European construction and global auto production. Whatever the macroeconomic circumstances may be, we continue to execute our optimization initiatives to enhance Ferro’s operational efficiency and drive long-term value for our shareholders. Peter Thomas Chairman, President and CEO, Ferro Corporation | |

* Comparative information is relative to prior-year third quarter and year-to-date.
1 Note: Net Income attributable to Ferro Corporation common shareholders.

Net Sales in the third quarter of 2019 declined 7.4%. The decline was primarily driven by lower volumes and mix of $29.7 million within Performance Coatings, Performance Colors and Glass, and Color Solutions and foreign currency impact of $7.1 million. On a constant currency basis, net sales declined 5.8%. Net Income declined 20.2% to $12.8 million, with Adjusted EBITDA of $58.2 million. Adjusted EBITDA margin was down slightly at 15.9% of Net Sales compared to 16.1% in the prior year quarter.
Gross Profit decreased 4.9% to $100.3 million, while Gross Profit Margin increased approximately 70 basis points to 27.4% from 26.7% in the prior year quarter. Adjusted Gross Profit declined 3.4% on a constant currency basis. Impacting Gross Profit was a shift in sales volume and mix, as well as unfavorable manufacturing costs and foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset with higher pricing and lower raw material costs.
During the quarter, the Company did not repurchase any shares of common stock. Approximately $46.2 million remains available under the current share repurchase authorization.

Full Year 2019 Guidance (as of 11/11/2019) |
The Company is updating its guidance for full-year 2019 Adjusted EPS and Adjusted EBITDA, due to the lower USD/EUR exchange rate. The Company is reaffirming its guidance on Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion. The table below reflects our updated guidance.
| | | |
| M | | Adjusted Free Cash |
| Adjusted | Adjusted | Flow from Operations |
| EBITDA | EPS | Conversion1 |
Updated Guidance (11/11/2019) | $222M - $227M | $1.15 - $1.20 | 45% to 50% |
2019 Guidance (7/31/2019) | $225M to $240M | $1.17 to 1.27 | 45% to 50% |
The 2019 guidance assumes no acquisitions, divestitures, restructuring, acquisition-related professional fees, optimization programs spend, or repurchase of common stock.
Note: The full-year 2019 guidance uses foreign exchange rates as of Sept 30, 2019, which includes a USD/EUR exchange rate at 1.11.
Ferro is providing Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow from Operations Conversion guidance on a continuing operations basis. While it is likely that Ferro could incur charges for items excluded from Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow from Operations conversion such as mark-to-market adjustments of pension and other postretirement benefit obligations, restructuring and impairment charges, and legal and professional expenses related to certain business development activities, it is not possible, without unreasonable effort, to identify the amount or significance of these items or the potential for other transactions that may impact future GAAP net income and cash flow from operating activities. Management does not believe these items to be representative of underlying business performance. Management is unable to reconcile, without unreasonable effort, the Company's forecasted range of these adjusted non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
Currency Exposure 2018 Weighting | | 2019 Guidance FX sensitivity |
EUR - Euro | 40% to 45% | | % Change | Operating Profit |
CNY -Yuan Renminbi | 6% to 8% | | +1% all FX change | ~ $1.5 million to ~$1.7 million |
MXN – Mexican Peso | 4% to 6% | | +1% Euro change | ~$1.1 million to ~$1.3 million |
EGP – Egyptian Pound | 3% to 5% | | | |

Constant Currency
Constant currency results reflect the remeasurement of 2018 reported and adjusted local currency results using 2019 exchange rates, which produces constant currency comparative figures to 2019 reported and adjusted results. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for the measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

It should be noted that adjusted net income, earnings per share and other adjusted items referred to above are financial measures not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP). These Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and a reconciliation of these financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures is presented.

It should be noted that adjusted net sales, gross profit, SG&A expenses, and operating profit are financial measures not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP). These Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and a reconciliation of these financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures are presented within this table, as well as Table 6 and Table 7. We believe this data provides investors with additional useful information on the underlying operations and trends of the business and enables period-to-period comparability of financial performance.
