CLEVELAND, April 21, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- PolyOne Corporation (NYSE: POL) today reported its first quarter results for 2020. GAAP earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.38 in the first quarter of 2020 compared to $0.29 in the first quarter of 2019.
Adjusted earnings per share excluding the impact of the additional shares issued in February of 2020 were $0.53. Inclusive of the additional shares, adjusted EPS was $0.48.
"The COVID-19 pandemic is having a significant impact on the world and our first priority is the health and safety of our associates, customers and all stakeholders. We are strictly adhering to government guidelines and protocols as well as other preventative measures to help stop the spread of the virus," said Robert M. Patterson, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, PolyOne Corporation.
"I'm very grateful for our dedicated associates around the world who continue to serve our customers. We have 61 global manufacturing facilities, and all but two continue to operate, as we are an essential source of supply related to coronavirus support and recovery," said Mr. Patterson.
The company noted its materials enable food, beverage and medical supplies to continue to be produced, packaged, shipped and used. This includes masks, protective garments, medical tubing and packaging for personal care products. In addition, the company's materials are critical to infrastructure, electronics and telecommunications.
Commenting on the company's first quarter results, Mr. Patterson said, "Improving margins in all three of our segments and an uptick in orders in Asia at the end of the quarter led to even better results than we expected and shared during our conference call on March 20, 2020. The pandemic has negatively impacted every region and many end markets, but certain end markets such as healthcare and packaging are holding up well."
The company noted that it ended the quarter with $1.28 billion in cash, which also exceeded its previous guidance.
"Market conditions remain challenged, as most of the world outside of China remains under stay-at-home orders. While our business is essential in the supply chain for our customers, we are adjusting to and expecting reduced demand in the coming months most notably for transportation and consumer discretionary items," Mr. Patterson added. "Fortunately, the actions we have taken in the past to strengthen our portfolio and our balance sheet have us well positioned to navigate these challenges."
The company plans to provide more details on its first quarter performance and the status of the Clariant transaction on its call with investors and analysts on April 21, 2020 (details below). Given the uncertainty in global markets, the company does not plan to provide specific guidance for the second quarter or the balance of the year at this time.

Senior management uses comparisons of adjusted net income from continuing operations attributable to PolyOne shareholders and diluted adjusted earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations attributable to PolyOne shareholders, excluding special items, to assess performance and facilitate comparability of results. Senior management believes these measures are useful to investors because they allow for comparison to PolyOne's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature, tend to obscure PolyOne's operating results due to the potential variability across periods based on timing, frequency and magnitude. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation from, or solely as alternatives to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Below is a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. See Attachment 3 for a definition and summary of special items.

PolyOne Corporation
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)
(In millions, except per share data)
|
|
|
|
Senior management uses gross margin before special items and operating income before special items to assess performance and allocate resources because senior management believes that these measures are useful in understanding current profitability levels and how it may serve as a basis for future performance. In addition, operating income before the effect of special items is a component of PolyOne annual and long-term employee incentive plans and is used in debt covenant computations. Senior management believes these measures are useful to investors because they allow for comparison to PolyOne's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature, tend to obscure PolyOne's operating results due to the potential variability across periods based on timing, frequency and magnitude. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation from, or solely as alternatives to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Below is a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. See Attachment 3 for a definition and summary of special items.

Senior management has referenced adjusted EPS excluding the impact of additional shares issued in February 2020. On January 28, 2020, prior to the issuance of the additional shares, the Company provided guidance for adjusted EPS for the first quarter of 2020. This guidance excluded the impact of the additional shares subsequently issued in February. Accordingly, for purposes of comparability to the January 28, 2020 guidance, and prior year, management has referenced adjusted EPS excluding the impact of the additional shares issued in February. In addition, and again for comparability, adjusted EPS also excludes the benefit of interest income earned on cash raised in connection with the February share issuance.
