YARDLEY, Pa., Oct. 25, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Crown Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: CCK) today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021.
Highlights
- Earnings per share $0.79 versus $1.59 in 2020
- Adjusted earnings per share increased to $2.03 over the $1.96 in 2020
- Global beverage can volumes grew 3%, 7% excluding Vietnam
- Repurchased $759 million in Company shares year to date through October 22
- Completed sale of European Tinplate business
- Ranked #1 by Sustainalytics in metal and glass packaging sector for minimizing ESG risk
- Joined The Climate Pledge and committed to be carbon neutral by 2040, 10 years ahead of The Paris Agreement.
Net sales in the third quarter were $2,920 million compared to $2,489 million in the third quarter of 2020 reflecting the pass through of higher material costs and increased beverage can and transit packaging sales unit volumes.
Income from operations was $348 million in the third quarter compared to $315 million in the third quarter of 2020. Segment income was $379 million in the third quarter compared to $367 million in the prior year third quarter primarily due to increased sales unit volumes.
Commenting on the quarter, Timothy J. Donahue, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "The Company's results in the quarter were solid despite certain anticipated global inflationary and supply chain pressures in addition to extensive lockdown measures in Vietnam to stem the spread of COVID. Crown remains on track for another record year in earnings. Strong performances in our North American beverage and food businesses combined with the Transit Packaging business more than offset weakness in Asia Pacific due to notably softer volumes in Vietnam. In addition, while volume in the country remains strong, the Brazil business faced a very difficult comparison as that market experienced a "V-shaped" pandemic recovery during the third quarter of 2020. As expected, the sale of our European Tinplate business to KPS Capital Partners was completed on August 31st. In addition to having implemented a quarterly dividend in March, the Company has repurchased $759 million of its shares through October 22nd, executing on our strategy of returning capital to shareholders.
"Beverage can demand growth continues to be very robust, and we expect this trend to continue in the coming years. Customers and consumers recognize and appreciate the inherent benefits of the aluminum can, including the fact that it is the most recycled beverage package in the world. Approximately 75% of new beverage products are now being introduced in cans, more than double the rate of just five years ago. To support the significant increase of current and future requirements, Crown is implementing several beverage can capacity expansion projects globally including both new facilities and additional lines in existing plants. Importantly, this new capacity, underpinned by multi-year supply agreements, will meet the needs of a diverse and balanced customer portfolio encompassing a wide array of both existing and new alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverage segments.
"During the quarter, we commercialized production on the second line at our new facility in Bowling Green, KY, began operations on the third line of the Olympia, WA plant and are currently commencing operations at our new plant in Vung Tau, Vietnam. These projects, in addition to the others that the Company has announced and is currently implementing, set the stage for continuing profitability growth in 2022 and beyond.
"The Company continues to make tremendous strides on its sustainability journey. Crown again holds the top position for mitigating environmental, social and governmental (ESG) risk within the metal and glass packaging sector, following a new assessment by ESG ratings provider Sustainalytics. The organization also advanced Crown to the Negligible Risk category, a designation achieved by only 1% of the more than 12,000 global companies reviewed. In addition, our North American Beverage Packaging business recently ranked within the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Top 25 Green Power Partners from the Fortune 500 list for demonstrating a commitment to advancing the green power market. Also during the quarter, the Company joined The Climate Pledge, a commitment to be net-zero carbon across our operations by 2040, ten years ahead of The Paris Agreement."
Interest expense was $66 million in the third quarter of 2021 compared to $69 million in 2020 primarily due to lower outstanding debt balances.
Net income attributable to Crown Holdings in the third quarter was $102 million compared to $214 million in the third quarter of 2020. Reported diluted earnings per share were $0.79 in the third quarter of 2021 compared to $1.59 in 2020. Adjusted diluted earnings per share increased to $2.03 over the $1.96 in 2020.
A reconciliation from net income and diluted earnings per share to adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share is provided below.
Nine Month Results
Net sales for the first nine months of 2021 increased to $8,340 million from $6,932 million in the first nine months of 2020, primarily due to the pass through of higher material costs and increased sales unit volumes.
Income from operations was $1,060 million in the first nine months of 2021 compared to $741 million in the first nine months of 2020. Segment income in the first nine months of 2021 was $1,143 million versus $882 million in the prior year period primarily due to increased sales unit volumes.
Interest expense was $203 million for the first nine months of 2021 compared to $220 million in 2020 primarily due to lower outstanding debt balances.
Net income attributable to Crown Holdings in the first nine months of 2021 was $441 million compared to $428 million in the first nine months of 2020. Reported diluted earnings per share were $3.32 compared to $3.18 in 2020. Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $5.99 compared to $4.43 in 2020.
Outlook
The Company currently expects fourth quarter adjusted earnings in the range of $1.50 to $1.55 per share, and full year adjusted earnings in the range of $7.50 to $7.55 per share.
Non-GAAP Measures
Segment income, adjusted free cash flow, adjusted net leverage ratio, adjusted net income, the adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted diluted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA are not defined terms under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (non-GAAP measures). Non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for income from operations, net income, diluted earnings per share, effective tax rates, cash flow or leverage ratio data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to calculations of similarly titled measures by other companies.
The Company views segment income as the principal measure of the performance of its operations and adjusted free cash flow and adjusted net leverage ratio as the principal measure of its liquidity. The Company considers all of these measures in the allocation of resources. Adjusted free cash flow has certain limitations, however, including that it does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures since other non-discretionary expenditures, such as mandatory debt service requirements, are not deducted from the measure. The amount of mandatory versus discretionary expenditures can vary significantly between periods. Reconciliations of estimated adjusted diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter and full year of 2021 to estimated diluted earnings per share on a GAAP basis are not provided in this release due to the unavailability of estimates of the following, the timing and magnitude of which the Company is unable to reliably forecast without unreasonable efforts, which are excluded from estimated adjusted diluted earnings per share and could have a significant impact on earnings per share on a GAAP basis: gains or losses on the sale of businesses or other assets, restructuring and other costs, asset impairment charges, asbestos-related charges, losses from early extinguishment of debt, pension settlement and curtailment charges, the tax and noncontrolling interest impact of the items above, and the impact of tax law changes or other tax matters. The Company believes that adjusted net income, the adjusted effective tax rate and adjusted diluted earnings per share are useful in evaluating the Company's operations as these measures are adjusted for items that affect comparability between periods. The Company believes that adjusted free cash flow and adjusted net leverage ratio provide meaningful measures of liquidity and a useful basis for assessing the Company's ability to fund its activities, including the financing of acquisitions, debt repayments, share repurchases or dividends. Segment income, adjusted free cash flow, adjusted net leverage ratio, the adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA are derived from the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations and Cash Flows and Consolidated Balance Sheets, as applicable, and reconciliations to segment income, adjusted free cash flow, net leverage ratio, the adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA can be found within this release.
