CCL Industries Announces Second Quarter Results


Second Quarter Highlights

Six-Month Highlights

TORONTO, Aug. 07, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CCL Industries Inc. ("the Company"), a world leader in specialty label, security and packaging solutions for global corporations, government institutions, small businesses and consumers, today reported 2020 second quarter results.

Sales for the second quarter of 2020 decreased 9.8% to $1,221.9 million, compared to $1,354.2 million for the second quarter of 2019, with 12.4% organic decline partially offset by 2.2% acquisition-related growth and 0.4% positive impact from foreign currency translation.

Operating income(1) for the second quarter of 2020 was $163.6 million compared to $198.7 million for the comparable quarter of 2019.  Operating income(1) decreased 18.2%, excluding currency translation. 

Restructuring and other items were a $3.8 million expense for the 2020 second quarter for severance costs associated with Checkpoint and CCL wine label operations in Australia and Chile. For the second quarter of 2019, restructuring and other items totaled $2.1 million primarily for severance costs associated with Innovia's UK operation and other acquisition transaction costs. 

Tax expense for the second quarter of 2020 was $34.3 million compared to $41.2 million in the prior year period.  The effective tax rate for the 2020 and 2019 second quarters was 25.1% and 25.6%, respectively.

Net earnings were $103.9 million for the 2020 second quarter compared to $121.3 million for the 2019 second quarter. Basic and adjusted basic earnings per Class B share(3) were $0.58 and $0.59,  respectively, compared to basic and adjusted basic earnings per Class B share(3) of $0.68 and $0.69, respectively, in the prior year second quarter.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, sales, operating income and net earnings declined 6.3%, 9.8% and 5.9% to $2.5 billion, $363.9 million and $230.5 million, respectively, compared to the same six-month period in 2019. The 2020 six-month period included results from twelve acquisitions completed since January 1, 2019, delivering acquisition-related sales growth for the period of 1.7%. Organic sales decline was 7.7% and foreign currency translation was a 0.3% negative impact. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, basic and adjusted basic earnings per Class B share(3) were $1.29 and $1.31, respectively, compared to basic and adjusted basic earnings per Class B share(3) of $1.38 and $1.40, respectively, in the prior year six-month period. Foreign currency translation had a negative impact of $0.01 on earnings per share.

Geoffrey T. Martin, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our main focus since the onset of this pandemic has been the health and safety of all employees while retaining supply chains able to respond to customer demand in essential industries. Our people coped with dramatically varying new business conditions as some product line demand almost evaporated, while others more than doubled. We responded accordingly, respecting the many new operational protocols needed to keep people safe. Our global business teams have simply excelled in the crisis. Consolidated sales declines were not as severe as anticipated, while profitability benefited from strong productivity, swift cost saving initiatives to match activity levels and, to a lesser extent, government support where available. The second quarter sales cadence was highly unusual: tough in both April and May with June above prior year, partly aided by two additional work days."

Mr. Martin continued, "CCL Segment profitability was down only slightly despite a 6.1% organic sales decline. Both CCL Design electronics and Healthcare & Specialty recorded significantly improved results on share gains plus higher pandemic-related demand for IT peripherals and over the counter medicines.  Home & Personal Care profitability increased as sales declined modestly on lower tube demand for prestige skin care and cosmetic brands sold in specialty retail channels. Labels were up slightly on strong demand for skin sanitizers and cleansers with solid growth in the United States offsetting slower results internationally, with currency devaluations in Latin America a significant factor. Aerosol can sales increased on easy comparisons. While sleeve sales continued to grow in Food and other end use applications, Beverage customers ?on premise' demand collapsed for much of the quarter reducing pressure sensitive label sales. CCL Secure volume declined on the shutdown of certain central bank currency printing operations but favourable mix improved profit margins. CCL Design automotive results reflected the global industry shutdown, posting losses that were a significant offsetting factor as CCL Segment profitability improved excluding this part of the business. Avery event badges, kids' labels and core products for traditional distribution channels were all severely impacted by the pandemic lockdowns especially in April and May. However, June results were above prior year levels as back-to-school volumes began to ship and demand improved everywhere except for event badges. ?WePrint' label growth and e-commerce sales were strong throughout the quarter. Checkpoint's results were similarly affected by the closure of non-essential retail outlets globally and apparel manufacturing hubs in Asia. Performance was also severely impacted in April and May but June sales recovered close to prior year levels with improved profitability compared to the same month in 2019.  Innovia film volume increased significantly, partly fueled by pantry loading demand but also with solid organic sales growth despite lower resin price pass through. Higher volume, productivity, favourable foreign exchange rates to the U.S. dollar and a better than expected contribution from the recently acquired operation in Poland drove robust profit gains.  Foreign currency translation had negligible impact on earnings per Class B share for the second quarter.  At today's Canadian dollar exchange rates, currency translation should be neutral to the 2020 third quarter."

Mr. Martin added, "Looking ahead it is impossible to predict the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the global economy and the Company's full year 2020 financial results with any certainty. The CCL Segment returned to more normalized demand patterns this summer, excluding the automotive sector which, although improved, remains difficult. The pantry loading boom that helped Innovia receded.  Both Avery and Checkpoint posted solid results in June as economies and retailing opened up. However, concerns on rising case numbers in the Americas, parts of Asia and Europe remain, with the potential for a second wave of lockdown restrictions. The strength and longevity of this current environment is simply unknown." 

Mr. Martin concluded, "During the second quarter the Company completed a bond offering, raising US$600.0 million at 3.05% due June 2030; proceeds were used to pay down the remaining borrowings on its syndicated revolving credit facility.  Strong free cash flow(4) improved the robust liquidity position: cash-on-hand of $619.4 million and US$1.2 billion undrawn capacity on the syndicated revolving credit facility; a net leverage ratio(5) of under 1.8 times Adjusted EBITDA(2). Given second quarter results exceeded expectations, projected 2020 capital spending has been revised to a range of $275 to $290 million, still less than the $350 million originally planned. The Board of Directors declared its regular quarterly dividend of $0.18 per Class B non-voting share and $0.1775 per Class A voting share, payable to shareholders of record at the close of business on September 16, 2020, to be paid on September 30, 2020."

Non-IFRS Measures

The Company measures the success of its business using a number of key performance measures, certain of which are not in accordance with IFRS. These non-IFRS measures do not have standardized meanings and may not be comparable to similar-named measures presented by other issuers. The non-IFRS measures should not be considered as an alternative to or replacement of net earnings or other measures of performance under IFRS.

(1) Operating income and operating income margin are non-IFRS financial measures used to assist in understanding the profitability of the Company's business units. Operating income is defined as earnings before corporate expenses, net finance cost, goodwill impairment loss, earnings in equity-accounted investments, restructuring and other items, and taxes. Operating income margin, also known as return on sales, is defined as operating income over sales.

(2) Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure used extensively in the packaging industry and other industries to assist in understanding and measuring operating results. Adjusted EBITDA is also considered as a proxy for cash flow and a facilitator for business valuations. This non-IFRS financial measure is defined as earnings before net finance cost, taxes, depreciation and amortization, goodwill impairment loss, non-cash acquisition accounting adjustments to inventory, earnings in equity-accounted investments and restructuring and other items.  The Company believes that this is an important measure as it allows management to assess the ongoing business without the impact of net finance cost, depreciation and amortization and income tax expenses, as well as non-operating factors and one-time items.  As a proxy for cash flow, it is intended to indicate the Company's ability to incur or service debt and to invest in property, plant and equipment, and it allows management to compare the business to those of the Company's peers and competitors who may have different capital or organizational structures. Adjusted EBITDA is tracked by financial analysts and investors to evaluate financial performance and is a key metric in business valuations.  Adjusted EBITDA is considered an important measure by lenders to the Company and is included in the financial covenants included in the senior notes and bank lines of credit.

(3) Adjusted basic earnings per Class B share is an important non-IFRS measure to assist in understanding the ongoing earnings performance of the Company excluding items of a one-time or non-recurring nature.  It is not considered a substitute for basic net earnings per Class B share but it does provide additional insight into the ongoing financial results of the Company.  This non-IFRS financial measure is defined as basic net earnings per Class B share excluding gains on business dispositions, goodwill impairment loss, non-cash acquisition accounting adjustments to inventory, restructuring and other items, and tax adjustments.
