Corporate Results 2Q 2015 versus 2Q 2014
Sales revenue for second quarter 2015 was $2.5 billion, a 3 percent increase compared with second quarter 2014, primarily due to sales revenue from the Taminco Corporation, Commonwealth Laminating & Coating Inc., and aviation turbine oil businesses acquired in 2014. This was partially offset by lower selling prices, particularly in the Specialty Fluids & Intermediates segment, lower Fibers segment sales volume, and an unfavorable shift in foreign currency exchange rates. Excluding the items described in Tables 3A and 4, second-quarter 2015 operating earnings were $480 million compared with $441 million for second quarter 2014. The increase was primarily due to Advanced Materials segment earnings growth, earnings from acquired businesses, and improved spread as lower raw material and energy costs exceeded lower selling prices. These items were partially offset by propane hedges, lower Fibers segment sales volume, and an unfavorable shift in foreign currency exchange rates. Reported second-quarter 2015 operating earnings were $469 million compared with $436 million for second quarter 2014.
Segment Results 2Q 2015 versus 2Q 2014
Additives & Functional Products - Sales revenue increased primarily due to sales of products of the acquired Taminco specialty amines and crop protection businesses, and higher coatings products sales volume attributed to demand in key end-markets. These items were partially offset by lower coatings and other formulated products selling prices due to lower raw material and energy costs and an unfavorable shift in foreign currency exchange rates. Excluding non-core items in second quarter 2014, operating earnings increased to $119 million for second quarter 2015 compared with $103 million for second quarter 2014 primarily due to earnings from acquired businesses.
Adhesives & Plasticizers - Sales revenue decreased primarily due to lower plasticizers selling prices and an unfavorable shift in foreign currency exchange rates. Lower plasticizers selling prices were primarily in response to lower raw material and energy costs and continued competitive pressure. Operating earnings increased to $63 million for second quarter 2015 compared with $56 million for second quarter 2014 primarily due to lower raw material and energy costs and slightly higher adhesives resins selling prices attributed to demand in packaging and hygiene markets. These items were partially offset by lower plasticizers selling prices, an unfavorable shift in foreign currency exchange rates, and the negative impact of propane hedges.
Advanced Materials - Sales revenue increased due to higher sales volume across the segment and sales of products of the acquired Commonwealth performance films business, partially offset by an unfavorable shift in foreign currency exchange rates and lower selling prices primarily for copolyesters due to lower raw material and energy costs. Operating earnings increased to $135 million for second quarter 2015 compared with $80 million for second quarter 2014 primarily due to higher sales volume and improved product mix especially of Eastman Tritan™ copolyester and interlayers with acoustic properties. Operating earnings also benefited from earnings from the acquired business.
Fibers - Sales revenue decreased primarily due to lower acetate tow and acetyl chemical sales volume attributed to customer inventory destocking. Excluding non-core items in second quarter 2015, operating earnings decreased to $91 million for second quarter 2015 compared with $123 million for second quarter 2014 primarily due to lower acetate tow sales volume.
Specialty Fluids & Intermediates - Sales revenue increased primarily due to sales of products of the acquired Taminco functional amines and aviation turbine oil businesses, mostly offset by lower selling prices for olefin-based intermediates. The lower selling prices were primarily in response to lower raw material and energy costs. Excluding non-core items in second quarter 2014, operating earnings decreased to $83 million for second quarter 2015 compared to $96 million for second quarter 2014, primarily due to earnings from acquired businesses being more than offset by the negative impact of propane hedges.
Cash Flow
Eastman generated $591 million in cash from operating activities during second quarter 2015 primarily due to strong net earnings. Priorities for uses of available cash include payment of the quarterly dividend, repayment of debt, and funding targeted growth initiatives. Net debt, defined as borrowings minus cash and cash equivalents, declined by $393 million during the second quarter.
Outlook
Commenting on the outlook for full year 2015, Costa said: “Our earnings outlook for the year has improved due to our record second quarter earnings and our strong first half of the year. These results reflect excellent performance of our specialty businesses, including strong volume growth and product mix improvement, and we expect this momentum to continue into the second half of the year. We also face challenges in the second half of the year from the global economic slowdown, volatile raw material and energy prices, and the strengthening U.S. dollar. Despite these challenges, we remain confident we will deliver a sixth consecutive year of solid earnings growth and continued strong cash flow.” Non-core and non-recurring items are excluded from the earnings per share projection.
The earnings for 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010, and 2009 referenced in the second paragraph of this release are non-GAAP and exclude the non-core items detailed, with reconciliation to GAAP earnings, in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections of the company’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K for 2014, 2013, 2012, and 2011.
