Operating Earnings is defined as net earnings from continuing operations attributable to International Paper Company (GAAP) excluding special items and non-operating pension expense.
|
Quarterly net sales were $5.7 billion in the second quarter of 2015 compared with $5.5 billion in the first quarter of 2015 and $5.9 billion in the second quarter of 2014. Revenues continue to be negatively impacted by foreign exchange translation.
Business segment operating profits before special items in the second quarter of 2015 were $663 million, compared with $623 million in the first quarter of 2015 and $686 million in the second quarter of 2014.
Free cash flow was $511 million in the second quarter. Cash from operations was $115 million, including the impact of a $750 million contribution to the Company's pension plan.
"IP delivered another strong quarter of earnings and free cash flow" said Mark Sutton, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Our North American Industrial Packaging business performed very well on seasonally higher sales and increased margins. Operations around the globe ran well and we executed our heaviest quarter of maintenance outages safely and effectively. As we look forward, we are confident in our ability to continue to deliver strong results and remain focused on long term value creation for our shareholders."
SEGMENT INFORMATION
The performance of the Company's business segments is measured quarter to quarter without variations caused by special items, as management focuses on business segment operating profits excluding those items. Second quarter 2015 business segment operating profits and business trends compared with the prior quarter are as follows:
Industrial Packaging operating profits in the second quarter of 2015 were $528 million compared with $468 million in the first quarter of 2015. In North America, earnings were higher due to seasonally increased sales volumes, strong operating performance and favorable input costs, partially offset by higher planned maintenance outage costs.
Printing Papers operating profits were $101 million in the second quarter of 2015 versus $109 million in the first quarter of 2015. Earnings in North America for Paper and Pulp increased due to a more favorable product mix, better operations and lower input costs. However, higher planned maintenance outage costs negatively impacted earnings for both North American Paper and Europe. This was partially offset in Russia by higher sales prices.
Consumer Packaging operating profits were $34 million ($47 million including special items) in the second quarter of 2015 compared with $46 million in the first quarter of 2015. Asia incurred greater losses primarily due to lower sales volume and prices, in a local market pressured by overcapacity. In North America, earnings increased due to higher sales volumes and lower planned maintenance outage costs, partially offset by some price pressure and less favorable mix. Earnings in Europe decreased due to lower sales volumes and higher operating costs.
International Paper recorded Ilim joint venture equity earnings of $67 million in the second quarter of 2015 compared with $39 million in the first quarter of 2015. With respect to Ilim's U.S. dollar denominated net debt, the Company recognized a non-cash after-tax foreign exchange gain of $27 million in the second quarter of 2015 ($0.06 per share), compared with an after-tax loss of $18 million in the first quarter of 2015 ($0.04 per share), due primarily to foreign exchange movement in the U.S. dollar versus the Russian ruble. Business performance reflects improved sales volumes and solid operational performance, offset by higher costs associated with planned maintenance outages.
CORPORATE EXPENSES
Net corporate expenses, excluding non-operating pension expense, for the second quarter of 2015 were $8 million compared with $9 million in the first quarter of 2015.
EFFECTIVE TAX RATE
The effective tax rate before special items and non-operating pension expense for the second quarter of 2015 was 33%, compared with an effective tax rate of 33% in the first quarter of 2015.
EFFECTS OF SPECIAL ITEMS
Special items in the second quarter of 2015 included a net pre-tax loss of $194 million ($125 million after taxes) for Restructuring and other charges. Included within Restructuring and other charges were a pre-tax charge of $207 million ($133 million after taxes) for premiums paid on a cash tender offer on outstanding debt, a net pre-tax gain of $14 million ($9 million after taxes) related to the sale of the Carolina® Coated Bristols brand and costs associated with the conversion of the Riegelwood, North Carolina facility to 100% pulp production, and a charge of $1 million (before and after taxes) for other items. Special items also included a pre-tax gain of $4 million ($2 million after taxes) related to state tax credits, a tax expense of $23 million for the tax impact of the 2015 cash pension contribution of $750 million and a tax expense of $5 million for other items.
There were no special items in the first quarter of 2015.
Special items in the second quarter of 2014 included a net pre-tax loss of $307 million ($188 million after taxes) for Restructuring and other charges. Included within Restructuring and other charges were a pre-tax charge of $262 million ($160 million after taxes) for debt extinguishment costs, a pre-tax charge of $49 million ($30 million after taxes) for costs associated with the closure of our Courtland, Alabama mill, a pre-tax gain of $7 million ($5 million after taxes) related to our Brazil Packaging business and net charges of $3 million (before and after taxes) for other items. Special items also included pre-tax charges of $2 million ($1 million after taxes) for integration costs related to the Temple-Inland acquisition.
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
As a result of the July 1, 2014 spin-off of the xpedx business, all prior year amounts have been adjusted to reflect xpedx as a discontinued operation. Previously reported information regarding the Distribution reportable segment has been excluded as this reportable segment was comprised solely of the xpedx business.
Discontinued operations in the second quarter of 2014 included the operating earnings of the xpedx businesses, pre-tax charges of $18 million ($20 million after taxes) for costs associated with the spin-off and a gain of $1 million (before and after taxes) related to the restructuring of the xpedx business. Also included are pre-tax costs of $5 million ($3 million after taxes) for costs associated with the divested Temple-Inland Building Products business.

The Company calculates Operating Earnings by excluding the after-tax effect of non-operating pension expense and items considered by management to be unusual from the earnings reported under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Management uses this measure to focus on on-going operations, and believes that it is useful to investors because it enables them to perform meaningful comparisons of past and present operating results. International Paper believes that using this information, along with net earnings, provides for a more complete analysis of the results of operations by quarter. Net earnings is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Since diluted earnings per share are computed independently for each period, six-month per share amounts may not equal the sum of the respective quarters.
