SPOKANE, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mar. 12, 2019--
Clearwater Paper Corporation (NYSE:CLW) today reported financial
results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2018.
The company reported net sales of $428.7 million for the fourth quarter
of 2018, which was $8.0 million or 1.8% lower than net sales of $436.7
million for the fourth quarter of 2017. The decrease was primarily due
to the sale of the company's mill in Ladysmith, Wisconsin in August 2018
and lower tissue shipments, partially offset by higher paperboard
shipments and pricing. Net loss determined in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for the fourth quarter of 2018
was $187.8 million, or $11.39 loss per diluted share, compared to net
earnings for the fourth quarter of 2017 of $80.9 million, or $4.88 per
diluted share, which included a $70 million tax benefit related to the
2017 tax law changes.
The net loss included a $195.1 million non-cash goodwill impairment
charge related to the consumer products business taken in the fourth
quarter of 2018. The impairment charge relates to the goodwill arising
out of the company's acquisition of Cellu Tissue Holdings, Inc. in 2010
and will not result in any cash expenditures or affect the company's
cash position, cash flow from operating activities, liquidity position
or availability under its credit facilities.
Excluding certain non-core items identified in the attached
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures, fourth quarter 2018
adjusted net earnings were $7.4 million, or $0.45 per diluted share,
compared to fourth quarter 2017 adjusted net earnings of $14.4 million,
or $0.87 per diluted share.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or
EBITDA, were $(149.7) million for the fourth quarter of 2018, compared
to $52.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2017. Adjusted EBITDA for the
quarter was $45.5 million, down 21.0% compared to fourth quarter 2017
Adjusted EBITDA of $57.5 million.
For the full year 2018, the company reported net sales of $1.7 billion,
which was flat with 2017 net sales. Price increases in tissue and
paperboard helped offset reduced tissue shipment volumes resulting
primarily from the sale of the Ladysmith, Wisconsin mill and changes in
customer orders. Net loss determined in accordance with GAAP for 2018
was $143.8 million, or $8.72 loss per diluted share, compared to net
earnings of $97.3 million, or $5.88 per diluted share in 2017. The net
loss in 2018 included the goodwill impairment charge described above,
and net earnings in 2017 included the significant tax benefit described
above. Excluding certain non-core items identified in the attached
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures, 2018 adjusted net
earnings were $42.0 million, or $2.55 per diluted share, compared to
2017 adjusted net earnings of $38.4 million, or $2.32 per diluted share.
EBITDA was $(0.9) million for full year 2018, compared to $177.3 million
for 2017. Adjusted EBITDA for the year was $176.7 million compared to
2017 Adjusted EBITDA of $189.5 million.
“We are pleased to deliver solid fourth quarter results driven largely
by the strong execution of our pulp and paperboard business,” said Linda
K. Massman, president and chief executive officer. “Also, by executing
against our strategic priorities, in 2018 we were able to successfully
implement a regional consumer products operating model; accelerate the
start-up of converting lines in Shelby, North Carolina; and complete the
sale of a recycled tissue mill in Ladysmith, Wisconsin.”
“While the performance of our consumer products business continues to be
impacted by an increasingly competitive market, we have made great
progress across this business, and are encouraged by the improvements in
our operating results. The strength of our longer-term fundamentals and
the positive consumer trends for private label brands give us confidence
that the company is well-positioned in a rapidly-evolving market.”
“Throughout 2019 we will be focused on two key areas - installing and
operating the new paper machine at our Shelby plant; and optimizing our
facilities and equipment to generate greater cash flow, increase our
financial flexibility and pay down bank debt - all of which we expect
will deliver significant value for our shareholders.”
FOURTH QUARTER2018SEGMENT PERFORMANCE
Consumer Products
Net sales in the Consumer Products segment were $212.7 million for the
fourth quarter of 2018, down 9.3% compared to fourth quarter 2017 net
sales of $234.7 million. This decrease was due to lower retail volumes
and prices and the divestiture of the Ladysmith, Wisconsin mill in
August 2018.
Operating loss for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $193.6 million,
compared to operating income and margin of $7.5 million and 3.2%,
respectively, in the fourth quarter of 2017. The operating loss included
the non-cash impairment charge described above that was recognized in
the quarter. After adjusting for certain non-core items identified in
the attached Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures, adjusted
operating income and margin were $0.9 million and 0.4% for the fourth
quarter of 2018 compared to $11.5 million and 4.9% of adjusted operating
income and margin, respectively, for the same period in 2017. Adjusted
EBITDA for the segment was $15.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2018,
down from $25.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2017. Those decreases
were primarily due to lower average selling prices, unfavorable
absorption of fixed costs over lower volumes of retail shipments, higher
pulp costs and the divestiture of the company's Ladysmith, Wisconsin
mill.
Tissue Sales Volumes and Prices:
-
Total tissue volumes sold were 80,980 tons in the fourth quarter of
2018, a decrease of 7.3% compared to 87,313 tons in the fourth quarter
of 2017. Converted product cases shipped were 11.6 million in the
fourth quarter of 2018, 8.2% lower than the 12.7 million cases shipped
in the fourth quarter of 2017.
-
Average tissue net selling prices decreased 1.4% to $2,627 per ton in
the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to $2,663 per ton in the fourth
quarter of 2017.
Pulp and Paperboard
Net sales in the Pulp and Paperboard segment were $216.0 million for the
fourth quarter of 2018, up 6.9% compared to fourth quarter 2017 net
sales of $202.1 million. The increase was due to record shipment volumes
and higher paperboard prices.
Operating income and margin for the fourth quarter of 2018 were $31.8
million and 14.7%, compared to $34.4 million and 17.0%, respectively,
for the fourth quarter of 2017. Adjusted EBITDA for the segment was
$41.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to $44.2 million
in the fourth quarter of 2017. The decrease was primarily due to higher
wood fiber costs due to weather conditions, boiler maintenance, higher
natural gas prices caused by a pipeline disruption which impacted the
company's Lewiston, Idaho mill and a pulp disruption at the Idaho mill
which necessitated a higher volume of purchased pulp.
Paperboard Sales Volumes and Prices:
-
Paperboard sales volumes were 218,322 tons in the fourth quarter of
2018, an increase of 3.9% compared to 210,098 tons in the fourth
quarter of 2017.
-
Paperboard net selling prices increased 2.1% to $982 per ton for the
fourth quarter of 2018, compared to $962 per ton in the fourth quarter
of 2017.
Taxes
The company's consolidated GAAP tax rate and adjusted tax rate for the
fourth quarter of 2018 were provisions of 2.4% and 37.9%, respectively,
compared to a benefit of 333.2% and a provision of 39.9%, respectively,
in the fourth quarter of 2017. On a GAAP basis, the net change to our
effective tax rate in the fourth quarter of 2018 was primarily the
result of recognizing benefits related to tax reform in 2017 and the
goodwill impairment expense which did not have a corresponding tax
impact. The company expects its GAAP and adjusted tax rate for 2019 to
be approximately 25%.
Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In this press release, the company presents certain non-GAAP financial
information for the fourth quarters and full years of 2018 and 2017,
including adjusted net earnings, adjusted net earnings per diluted
share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, adjusted
operating margin and adjusted income tax rate provision and benefit.
Because these amounts are not in accordance with GAAP, reconciliations
to net (loss) earnings, net (loss) earnings per diluted share, operating
(loss) income and income tax rate provision and benefit as determined in
accordance with GAAP are included in the tables at the end of this press
release. The company presents these non-GAAP amounts because management
believes they assist investors and analysts in comparing the company's
performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding
items that the company does not believe are indicative of its core
operating performance. In addition, the company uses EBITDA and Adjusted
EBITDA: (i) as factors in evaluating management’s performance when
determining incentive compensation, (ii) to evaluate the effectiveness
of our business strategies, and (iii) because our credit agreement and
the indentures governing our outstanding notes use metrics similar to
EBITDA to measure our compliance with certain covenants.

EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that management uses to
evaluate the cash generating capacity of the company. The most
directly comparable GAAP measure is net earnings. EBITDA is net
earnings adjusted for net interest expense, income taxes, and
depreciation and amortization. It should not be considered as an
alternative to net earnings computed under GAAP.
|
| 2 |
Adjusted EBITDA excludes the impact of the items listed
that the company does not believe are indicative of its core
operating performance.
|
| 3 |
Depreciation and amortization expense for the twelve months ended
December 31, 2017 includes $3.7 million of accelerated depreciation
associated with the Oklahoma City facility closure, $0.6 million
associated with the closed Long Island facility and $0.4 million as
a result of the warehouse automation project.
|
| 4 |
Costs associated with the Oklahoma City facility closure for both
the three and twelve months ended December 30, 2017 include $3.2
million of expenses associated with the execution of a sublease for
the facility. Costs associated with the Oklahoma City facility
closure for the twelve months ended December 31, 2017 also include
$4.3 million of loss on the write-down of assets to their held for
sale value.
|
| 5 |
The "Gain on divested assets, net” amounts for the three and twelve
months ended December 31, 2018, are associated with the sale of the
company’s Ladysmith, Wisconsin facility in the third quarter of
2018. The gain in the fourth quarter of 2018 is the result of the
settlement of a working capital contingency associated with the sale.
