Beverage Merchandising Restructuring:
·Announced plans to restructure the Beverage Merchandising operations and to reorganize the Company’s management structure.
LAKE FOREST, Ill., March 06, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pactiv Evergreen Inc. (“Pactiv Evergreen” or the “Company”) today reported results for the fourth quarter of 2022. Michael King, President and Chief Executive Officer of Pactiv Evergreen, said, “the Company exited the year on solid footing with results exceeding its prior guidance with continued focus on operational performance and delivering high service levels to customers. The Company reported an expected sequential decline in its operating results amid ongoing inflationary pressure on the consumer, combined with seasonal trends and the sale of its Beverage Merchandising Asia business in the third quarter. Net income from continuing operations declined compared to the third quarter primarily due to the gain recognized from the sale of Beverage Merchandising Asia. Adjusted EBITDA1 declined as expected, driven by the aforementioned volume softness and higher manufacturing spend mostly related to cost impacts of Winter Storm Elliott and a scheduled mill outage.
The Company completed another productive year during 2022 by executing on its strategy to focus on its core business, completing the integration of Fabri-Kal and exceeding targeted synergies, stabilizing its labor force, investing in inventory to return to target levels, improving equipment effectiveness and production throughput and managing price amid a challenging inflationary environment, all while continuing to improve service levels and de-lever the balance sheet. The Company remains cautious due to the continued elevated levels of inflation and resulting pressures in the market as well as their potential impact on end market demand. In addition, today we announced that we are taking actions to restructure our Beverage Merchandising segment and reorganize the Company’s management structure. These actions are consistent with our stated strategy of focusing on our distinctive core strength to enhance and accelerate our position as the market-leading North American Food & Beverage packaging company.”
Jon Baksht, Chief Financial Officer of Pactiv Evergreen, added, “the Company continues to focus on deleveraging the balance sheet by both improving its operations across the enterprise and managing its cash and outstanding debt levels. The Company took additional actions to de-lever and reduce interest rate risk during the fourth quarter of 2022 by repurchasing a total of $92 million in aggregate principal of its 7.95% and 8.375% debentures due in 2025 and 2027 at 97% of par. As of year-end 2022, the Company’s total debt was $4.1 billion, and its Net Debt2 was $3.6 billion, down from prior year levels. While the path of future interest rates remains uncertain, the Company also executed $1 billion of notional amount in interest rate swaps to lock in certain portions of its variable rate debt thereby reducing cash flow volatility. This focus has continued into 2023 as the Company repaid and repurchased an aggregate of $110 million of its U.S. term loans Tranche B-2 during January and February of 2023.”

Beverage Merchandising Restructuring
Pactiv Evergreen plans to take significant restructuring actions related to its Beverage Merchandising operations. The Company expects to close its Canton, North Carolina mill and its converting facility in Olmsted Falls, Ohio with operations at both facilities expected to end during the second quarter of 2023. Production from the Olmsted Falls facility will be reallocated to other sites. The Company also continues to explore strategic alternatives for its Pine Bluff, Arkansas mill and Waynesville, North Carolina facility. The Company has not set a timetable in relation to this process. In addition, the Company plans to reorganize its management structure by combining the Beverage Merchandising and Food Merchandising businesses effective April 1, 2023.
“As we continue to confront a challenging market environment for our Beverage Merchandising business, we are faced with these difficult decisions that directly impact our employees,” said Mr. King. “We assess all changes to the business with considerable thought for our employees, customers, shareholders and communities, and do not take these decisions lightly. We remain committed to doing what's right, treating everyone with respect, and delivering on all of our commitments to our people, customers, shareholders and the communities where we operate.”
Approximately 1,300 positions will be eliminated as a result of these actions. The Company will provide outplacement assistance and severance to impacted employees, consistent with Company policy and labor union agreements.
As a result of the closures and change in management structure, we expect to incur non-cash charges in the range of $310 million to $330 million primarily during 2023 related to the acceleration of depreciation of plant and equipment and other asset impairments. We also expect to incur and pay cash charges in the range of $130 million to $185 million primarily during 2023 and 2024 related to severance and associated benefits and exit and disposal and other transition costs.
All the above estimates are provisional and include significant management judgments and assumptions that could change materially as we execute our plans. Actual results may differ from these estimates, and the execution of our plan could result in additional restructuring charges or impairments not reflected above.
“The strategic actions we are announcing today will reduce our capital expenditures and overhead costs. We expect these proactive steps to position us to remain competitive in the liquid packaging market and gain additional synergies from the further integration of our businesses. We are targeting an annualized reduction in our costs of approximately $30 million and a reduction of approximately $50 million in capital expenditures, with full annualized run rate of these benefits expected to be realized beginning in 2024,” concluded Mr. King.
Fourth Quarter 2022 Results vs. Fourth Quarter 2021 Results
Net revenues in the fourth quarter of 2022 were $1,476 million compared to $1,527 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales volume, largely due to the market softening amid inflationary pressures across all segments, a focus on value over volume and the strategic exit from the coated groundwood business in the Beverage Merchandising segment in December 2021. In addition, the disposition of Beverage Merchandising Asia on August 2, 2022 contributed to the decrease in net revenues. These decreases were partially offset by favorable pricing, due to the contractual pass-through of higher material costs and pricing actions across all segments.
Net income from continuing operations was $27 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to $34 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a $27 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses, primarily driven by higher employee-related costs, $16 million of lower income associated with our pension plans and a $10 million increase in interest expense, primarily driven by higher interest rates on our variable rate term loans. These decreases were partially offset by a $33 million decrease in tax expense and $12 million of higher gross profit, largely driven by favorable pricing, net of higher material and manufacturing costs and lower sales volume.
Adjusted EBITDA1 was $167 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to $205 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The decrease reflects higher manufacturing costs, lower sales volume and higher employee-related costs, partially offset by favorable pricing, net of material costs passed through. Higher costs included $8 million related to the impact of Winter Storm Elliott and $8 million related to a scheduled cold mill outage.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights
The Company continues to focus on strengthening its balance sheet. The Company’s Free Cash Flow3 improved compared to the third quarter of 2022, primarily due to the completion of the strategic inventory build and the timing of cash collections. The Company paid dividends to shareholders of $0.40 per share during the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company’s Board of Directors declared a fourth quarter 2022 dividend on March 2, 2023 of $0.10 per share of common stock, payable on March 24, 2023 to shareholders of record as of March 17, 2023.

Outlook
The Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA without unreasonable effort because of the uncertainty and potential variability in amount and timing of our restructuring, asset impairment and other related charges (such as those we expect to arise from the anticipated Beverage Merchandising Restructuring), non-cash pension income or expense, unrealized gains or losses on derivatives and foreign exchange gains or losses on cash, which are reconciling items between GAAP net income from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA and could significantly impact GAAP results.
“I am pleased with the Company's performance during 2022 and excited about our opportunities for growth. While we expect to be faced with many challenges during 2023 such as ongoing inflationary pressures on the consumer and the potential for a slowdown in the broader economy, we continue to take actions to further enhance our business. The announced restructuring of our business will likely also come with a unique set of challenges, but we expect it to enable us to further grow our business and improve our operating results upon completion. With this context in mind, the Company is providing Adjusted EBITDA1 guidance in the range of $755 million to $780 million for full year 2023 and approximately $160 million for the first quarter of 2023,” said Mr. King.

Note to Investors Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

All statements contained in this press release other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements, including statements regarding our guidance as to our future financial and operational results, our expectations regarding consumers’ demand and the duration and severity of ongoing macroeconomic challenges and our plans regarding the restructuring of our Beverage Merchandising operations announced today, including as they relate to the impacted facilities, planned restructuring activities, expected timelines, affected positions, amount and type of cash and non-cash charges that we expect to incur and the timing thereof and the impact of the restructuring on our competitive position and realization of synergies. In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “may,” “might,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “likely” or “continue,” the negative of these terms and other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions based on our expectations and projections about future events as of the date of this press release and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions that may prove incorrect, any of which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements, including, among others, those described under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2022, June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2022 filed with the SEC and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 to be filed with the SEC. New risks emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can management assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement the Company makes.

Except as otherwise required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company uses the following financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”): Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Net Debt. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income from continuing operations calculated in accordance with GAAP plus the sum of income tax expense (benefit), net interest expense, depreciation and amortization and further adjusted to exclude certain items, including but not limited to restructuring, asset impairment and other related charges, gains on the sale of businesses and noncurrent assets, non-cash pension income or expense, operational process engineering-related consultancy costs, business acquisition and integration costs and purchase accounting adjustments, unrealized gains or losses on derivatives, foreign exchange losses on cash, executive transition charges and gains or losses on certain legal settlements. The Company defines Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. The Company defines Net Debt as the sum of current and long-term debt, less cash and cash equivalents.
The Company has provided herein a reconciliation of (i) net income from continuing operations to Adjusted EBITDA, (ii) net cash provided by operating activities to Free Cash Flow and (iii) total debt to Net Debt, in each case representing the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
The Company presents Adjusted EBITDA to assist it in comparing performance from period to period and as a measure of operational performance. It is also a key measure used by its management team to generate future operating plans, make strategic decisions and incentivize and reward its employees. In addition, its management uses the Adjusted EBITDA of each reportable segment to evaluate its respective operating performance. Accordingly, the Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the Company’s operating results in the same manner as its management and board of directors. The Company also believes that using Adjusted EBITDA facilitates operating performance comparisons on a period-to-period basis because it excludes variations primarily caused by changes in the items noted above. The Company presents Free Cash Flow to assist it in comparing liquidity from period to period and to obtain a more comprehensive view of the Company’s core operations and ability to generate cash flow, and also, as with Adjusted EBITDA, to generate future operating plans, make strategic decisions and incentivize and reward its employees. The Company believes that this measure is useful to investors in evaluating cash available to service and repay debt, make other investments and pay dividends. The Company presents Net Debt as a supplemental measure to review the liquidity of its operations and measure the Company’s credit position and progress toward leverage targets. The Company also believes that investors find this measure useful in evaluating its debt levels.
Non-GAAP information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our non-GAAP metrics may not be the same as or comparable to similar non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies. Because of these and other limitations, you should consider them alongside other financial performance measures, including our net income and other GAAP results. In addition, in evaluating Adjusted EBITDA and other metrics derived from it, you should be aware that in the future the Company will incur expenses such as those that are the subject of adjustments in deriving Adjusted EBITDA and you should not infer from our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA that our future results will not be affected by these expenses or any unusual or non-recurring items.
