PRESS RELEASE
OM GROUP ANNOUNCES FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2014 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Strong operating cash flows support acquisition and returns of capital to shareholders;
forecast outlined for 2015
CLEVELAND - March 2, 2015 - OM Group, Inc. (NYSE: OMG) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2014. For the quarter and full year, the Company reported adjusted pro forma EBITDA of $22 million and $113 million, respectively. These adjusted pro forma amounts exclude the results of its divested Advanced Materials cobalt business, non-cash goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges, and other special charges related to cost optimization and business improvement initiatives. The Company also reported a loss from continuing operations for the quarter of $6.24 per diluted share, or income of $0.10 per diluted share on an adjusted pro forma basis, and a loss of $5.54 per diluted share for the full year, or income of $0.92 per diluted share on an adjusted pro forma basis. Reconciliations of the Company’s adjusted pro forma results to corresponding U.S. GAAP results are included in this press release. The Company delivered strong operating cash flows of $42 million in the fourth quarter and $85 million in the full year.
“OM Group is committed to creating increased and sustainable shareholder value through the successful execution of our strategy, growing our businesses, reducing costs and responsibly returning capital to shareholders," said Joe Scaminace, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of OM Group, Inc. "Consistent with those priorities, we utilized the Company’s strong operating cash flows in 2014 to support a number of strategic actions during the year, including expanding our successful Battery Technologies platform with a complementary acquisition, initiating a regular dividend that paid $9 million to shareholders, and returning another $35 million of capital to shareholders in the form of share repurchases. In addition, we recently announced a 10 percent increase in our regular cash dividend, demonstrating our confidence in our differentiated businesses and our ability to generate continued strong cash flows.”
On February 18, 2015, the Company announced wide-ranging competitive repositioning and cost optimization opportunities across the enterprise to improve its ability to serve customers, better compete in global markets and deliver stronger financial performance. The Company expects annualized savings of $30-$40 million by the end of 2017, with benefits ramping up starting in late 2015, at a cash cost of approximately $50-$65 million incurred over the next three years.
“In 2014, we fielded a new team of business leaders to improve our operating capabilities and accelerate the pace of positive change in our businesses,” said Mr. Scaminace. “In a short period of time, we have identified and are pursuing opportunities that will strengthen our businesses and contribute to achieving our 2017 financial objective of expanding our adjusted EBITDA margins by 350-450 basis points off of 2014 levels excluding currency impacts.”
Net sales for the fourth quarter of 2014 were $245 million. Excluding sales in the divested Advanced Materials business and the translation effect of a lower EUR/USD rate in 2014, net sales decreased 3%, primarily due to weaker business conditions in Europe and increased competition in the permanent magnets product line in the Company’s Magnetic Technologies business. Sales were slightly lower in Battery
Technologies due primarily to loss of a medical customer contract during 2014, and sales in Specialty Chemicals were essentially unchanged compared to a year ago.
Adjusted pro forma EBITDA of $22 million in the current year period was lower than the prior year period of $27 million, which included $4 million of insurance proceeds in Specialty Chemicals that did not repeat. 2014 profit was adversely affected by a weaker Euro and lower sales volumes in Magnetic Technologies, partially offset by favorable mix in Battery Technologies and lower corporate expenses.
The Company enters 2015 with translation pressures from a weaker Euro. The change from an average EUR/USD rate of 1.33 in 2014 to 1.15 forecasted by the Company in 2015 creates approximately $10 million of lower US Dollar translated results from European-based operations. As a result, OM Group is projecting 2015 adjusted pro forma EBITDA of $105-$115 million. This forecast reflects expectations of the significantly lower EUR/USD rate in 2015, uncertainties in European macroeconomic conditions, increasing competition in permanent magnets, a technology shift in Battery Technologies, and benefits from the competitive repositioning and cost optimization opportunities that begin to ramp up in late 2015.
Mr. Scaminace concluded, “Our forecast reflects in large part external factors, especially weakness in Europe, in response to which we have taken decisive actions that put us on track to achieve substantially improved performance beginning later this year. OM Group enters 2015 with a strong balance sheet, a clear path to improve operating performance and a disciplined deployment of cash to build-out our strategic platforms and return excess capital to shareholders. We remain excited about the growth opportunities in each of our businesses - innovation and geographic expansion in Magnetic Technologies; development of commercial applications in Battery Technologies; and focus on higher value-added products in Specialty Chemicals. We are confident in our ability to execute these plans and to deliver on our strategy to create long-term value for our shareholders.”

(a) For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2013, because the reported loss from continuing operations is income on an adjusted basis, we used diluted shares to calculate EPS. |
In order to assist readers of our financial statements in understanding the operating results that the Company's management uses to evaluate the business, we are providing adjusted income from continuing operations attributable to OM Group, Inc. common stockholders and adjusted earnings per common share attributable to OM Group, Inc. common stockholders - assuming dilution, both of which are non-U.S. GAAP financial measures. We are also providing the amounts as pro forma adjusted to exclude the results of the divested Advanced Materials business. The Company's management believes that these are important metrics in evaluating the performance of the Company's business, providing a baseline for evaluating and comparing our operating results and isolating the impact of certain items on our results. The table above presents a reconciliation of the Company's U.S. GAAP income from continuing operations attributable to OM Group, Inc. common stockholders - as reported to adjusted income from continuing operations attributable to OM Group, Inc. common stockholders and earnings per common share attributable to OM Group, Inc. common stockholders - assuming dilution, adjusted for both special items as identified in the table and to exclude the results of the divested Advanced Materials business. The non-U.S. GAAP financial information set forth in the table above should not be construed as an alternative to reported results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. |
