VECTOR GROUP REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2018 FINANCIAL RESULTS
MIAMI, FL, November 7, 2018 - Vector Group Ltd. (NYSE:VGR) today announced financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.
GAAP Financial Results
Third quarter 2018 revenues were $513.9 million, compared to revenues of $484.6 million in the third quarter of 2017. The Company recorded operating income of $66.0 million in the third quarter of 2018, compared to operating income of $59.7 million in the third quarter of 2017. Net income attributed to Vector Group Ltd. for the third quarter of 2018 was $12.0 million, or $0.07 per diluted common share, compared to net income of $19.3 million, or $0.13 per diluted common share, in the third quarter of 2017.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2018 revenues were $1.424 billion, compared to revenues of $1.372 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The Company recorded operating income of $176.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to operating income of $187.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Net income attributed to Vector Group Ltd. for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $37.0 million, or $0.23 per diluted common share, compared to a net income of $41.8 million, or $0.27 per diluted common share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
Adoption of accounting standards. Effective January 1, 2018, the Company has adopted several new accounting standards that impact financial reporting for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. The new standards were Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) 2014-09 (Topic 606), and 2016-08, which relate to revenue recognition; ASU 2016-01 and ASU 2018-03, which relate to the Company’s investments in equity securities; and 2017-07, which relates to accounting for the Company’s defined benefit pension plans. The adoption of ASU 2017-07 was retrospective and certain categories in the Company’s Statement of Operations were revised, including operating, selling, administrative and general expenses, operating income and other income; therefore these financial metrics, as well as non-GAAP financial measures, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Operating Income, and Adjusted Operating Income for the Tobacco Segment, for the last twelve months ended September 30, 2018 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 contained in this press release do not agree with the Company’s previously issued earnings press releases (November 7, 2017 and March 1, 2018). The impact of the adoption of ASU 2017-07 on selling, general, and administrative expense, operating income, other income and Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Operating Income and Tobacco Adjusted Operating Income was reported in the Company’s Forms 8-K dated June 14, 2018 and September 28, 2018. In addition, ASU 2014-09 (Topic 606), ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-01 and ASU 2018-03 were applied using the modified retrospective method and resulted in a cumulative adjustment to beginning stockholder’s deficiency at January 1, 2018. The Company’s Statement of
Operations for the periods ending prior to January 1, 2018, including the three months ended March 31, 2017, June 30, 2017, September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2017 have not been adjusted to reflect the adoption of these standards, which results in limited comparability between 2018 and 2017 operating results.
Segment changes. As a result of a significant reduction in the Company’s E-Cigarette business, results from the E-Cigarette segment are now included in the Corporate and Other segment and 2017 information has been recast to conform to the 2018 presentation.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Non-GAAP financial measures also include adjustments for purchase accounting associated with the Company’s 2013 acquisition of an additional 20.59% interest in Douglas Elliman Realty, LLC, litigation settlements and judgments, settlements of long-standing disputes related to the Master Settlement Agreement in the Tobacco segment, restructuring and pension settlement expense in the Tobacco segment, net interest expense capitalized to real estate ventures, stock-based compensation expense (for purposes of Adjusted EBITDA only) and non-cash interest expense associated with the Company’s convertible debt. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial results to the comparable GAAP financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 are included in Tables 2 through 7.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Operating Income, Tobacco Adjusted Operating Income, Tobacco Adjusted EBITDA, New Valley LLC Adjusted EBITDA and Douglas Elliman Realty, LLC Adjusted EBITDA (“the Non-GAAP Financial Measures”) are financial measures not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The Company believes that the Non-GAAP Financial Measures are important measures that supplement discussions and analysis of its results of operations and enhances an understanding of its operating performance. The Company believes the Non-GAAP Financial Measures provide investors and analysts with a useful measure of operating results unaffected by differences in capital structures and ages of related assets among otherwise comparable companies.
Management uses the Non-GAAP Financial Measures as measures to review and assess operating performance of the Company’s business, and management and investors should review both the overall performance (GAAP net income) and the operating performance (the Non-GAAP Financial Measures) of the Company’s business. While management considers the Non-GAAP Financial Measures to be important, they should be considered in addition to, but not as substitutes for or superior to, other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as operating income, net income and cash flows from operations. In addition, the Non-GAAP Financial Measures are susceptible to varying calculations and the Company’s measurement of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures may not be comparable to those of other companies. Attached hereto as Tables 2 through 7 is information relating to the Company’s Non-GAAP Financial Measures for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.
