Avient Announces Record First Quarter 2021 Results; Increases Full Year Guidance

2021年4月30日
-- Organic revenues increased 17% to $1.16 billion driven by strong demand across all segments, with the most significant growth in healthcare and consumer end markets
-- GAAP EPS from continuing operations of $0.86 compared to $0.38 in the prior year quarter
-- Adjusted EPS from continuing operations of $0.89 expanded 68% over the prior year of $0.53 with all segments achieving record operating income
-- Full year adjusted EPS guidance for 2021 increased from $2.40 to $2.80 representing 45% growth over the prior year of $1.93.

CLEVELAND, 2021年4月30日 /PRNewswire/ -- Avient Corporation (NYSE: AVNT), a leading provider of specialized and sustainable material solutions, today reported its first quarter results for 2021. First quarter 2021 GAAP EPS from continuing operations was $0.86 compared to $0.38 in the prior year first quarter.  The company noted that GAAP EPS includes special items (Attachment 3), which impacted EPS in both periods and were primarily associated with acquisition-related and restructuring costs.  Unless otherwise noted herein, all comparisons to prior year results are pro forma for the Clariant Masterbatch acquisition.

"I'm very pleased to report we achieved the highest level of organic sales growth in the last decade, as the economy recovers from the pandemic lows of the prior year.  This is a direct result of the investments we have made to transform our portfolio to one that is more specialized and focused on high growth end markets with sustainable solutions," said Robert M. Patterson, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, Avient Corporation.  

The company cited strong demand for healthcare (up 22%) and consumer products (up 24%) as organic revenue increased 17% to $1.16 billion. Coupled with expanding margins, and early synergy capture related to the Clariant Masterbatch acquisition, this led to a 68% increase in adjusted EPS to $0.89 versus $0.53 in the prior year. 

Specialty EBITDA Margins

Mr. Patterson added, "We are an asset-light, high-touch business that generates very high free cash flow conversion.  We specialize in formulating sustainable solutions to meet our customers' toughest challenges, and I am proud of how well our team has delivered throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and recent supply chain disruptions."

The company noted the following segment highlights:

The Color, Additives and Inks segment delivered record operating income of $89 million during the first quarter, a 40% increase over the prior year.  The company said it is ahead of schedule in capturing cost synergies from the Clariant Masterbatch acquisition and now expects to achieve $45 million in the current year from the previously announced $35 million

The Specialty Engineered Materials segment also achieved its highest-ever quarterly operating income at $34 million, a 53% increase over the prior year. Demand conditions were robust in the quarter, in particular for composite technologies and new business gains in healthcare applications.    

Despite significant supply chain disruptions, the company's Distribution segment also performed exceptionally well to start the year, highlighted by record quarterly operating income of $24 million, a 24% increase over the prior year, as sales increased 25% to $363 million

Second Quarter and Full Year 2021 Outlook

Commenting on the Company's 2021 outlook, Mr. Patterson said, "As more and more vaccines are administered, we anticipate demand conditions will continue to improve.  We now estimate second quarter sales of $1.1 billion and adjusted EPS of $0.80. This represents sales and adjusted EPS growth of 26% and 90%, respectively, over the prior year second quarter."

Adjusted EPS

Mr. Patterson added, "We are also increasing our full year 2021 estimates and now expect revenues of approximately $4.3 billion and adjusted EPS of $2.80, a 45% increase over the prior year."

"As companies report their earnings this year and compare to 2020, there will be many examples of significant growth being delivered.  This is the case for Avient as well, but what further differentiates us, is that in 2020 our EPS also grew 11% vs. 2019. Our EPS projections for 2021 are 61% higher than 2019 because of the resiliency of our portfolio, the end markets we serve and how we have executed during these challenging times," Mr. Patterson concluded.

The Company noted it will provide more details on its 2021 outlook during the webcast scheduled for 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time on 2021年4月30日.   

Pro Forma

The Company acquired the Clariant Masterbatch business ("CMB") on 2020年7月1日 (the "Acquisition Date").  Unless otherwise noted, all comparisons to prior year financial results herein are presented on a pro forma basis and referred to as "organic" such that the prior periods include the business results of CMB for that prior period.  Management believes this provides better comparability of the performance of the combined businesses.   Refer to Attachment 7 Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures for details regarding adjustments to previously reported results to arrive to the pro forma financial metrics.

Non-GAAP Reconciliation

The Company does not provide reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, such as outlook for adjusted earnings per share, to the most comparable GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because the Company is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and amount of certain items, such as, but not limited to, restructuring costs, environmental remediation costs, acquisition related costs, and other non-routine costs. Each of such adjustments has not yet occurred, are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.

Senior management uses comparisons of adjusted net income from continuing operations attributable to Avient shareholders and diluted adjusted earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations attributable to Avient 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 Avient's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature, tend to obscure Avient'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.

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 Avient 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 Avient's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature, tend to obscure Avient'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.
