Platform Specialty Products Corporation Announces Third Quarter 2014 Financial Results


- Net sales of $197 million, up 4.4% organically

- Record Adjusted EBITDA of $52.5 million and Adjusted EBITDA margin of 26.7%

MIAMI, Nov. 5, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Platform Specialty Products Corporation (NYSE:PAH) ("Platform" or "the Company"), a global specialty chemicals company, today announced its financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

Please note: the 2013 as reported quarterly and year-to-date information is based on the Predecessor MacDermid company information and does not reflect the purchase accounting effect of Platform's acquisition of MacDermid Incorporated in October 2013. In order to perform a proper comparison between 2013 and 2014 for the reader of the statements, the Company has made certain adjustments to its reported numbers, as detailed in the press release financial tables, to assist in this comparison of the P&L. The Company believes that this "as adjusted" format better reflects a comparable analysis of the numbers being presented and does not include figures for Chemtura AgroSolutions or Agriphar Group, both of which acquisitions closed in the fourth quarter.

For the three months ended September 30, 2014:

  • Organically, net sales increased $8.3 million, or 4.4%, to $196.8 million, compared to $188.4 million for the same period in 2013.
  • Reported gross profit increased $4.3 million, or 4.3%, to $103.2 million, compared to $99.0 million for the same period in 2013.
  • Reported gross margin was flat at 52.5% year-over-year, and in line the Company's record high gross margin.
  • Reported net income declined to $11.9 million, compared to $14.5 million for the same period in 2013.
  • Adjusted EBITDA increased $4.9 million to $52.5 million, compared to $47.6 million for the same period in 2013 representing a record level.
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin levels increased to 26.7%, compared to 25.3% for the same period in 2013, representing a record level.
  • Adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders increased $3.5 million to $27.9 million, compared to $24.4 million for the same period in 2013.
  • Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.19, compared to $0.16 per diluted share for the same period in 2013.
  • Adjusted recurring free cash flow was $20.0 million, or $0.14 per adjusted diluted share, compared to $17.9 million, or $0.12 per adjusted diluted share, for the same period in 2013.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2014:

  • Organically, net sales increased $9.1 million, or 1.6%, to $569.6 million, compared to $560.6 million for the same period in 2013.
  • Reported gross profit decreased $4.7 million, or 1.6%, to $284.1 million, compared to $288.8 million for the same period in 2013.
  • Reported gross margin decreased to 49.9%, compared to 51.5% for the same period in 2013.
  • Reported net income declined to $4.1 million, compared to $23.9 million for the same period in 2013.
  • Adjusted gross profit increased $7.3 million to $296.1 million, compared to $288.8 million for the same period in 2013.
  • Adjusted gross margin percentage increased to 52.0%, compared to 51.5% for the same period in 2013.
  • Adjusted EBITDA increased $11.0 million to $146.6 million, compared to $135.6 million for the same period in 2013 representing a record level.
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin levels increased to 25.7%, compared to 24.2% for the same period in 2013 representing a record level.
  • Adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders increased $8.5 million to $76.7 million, compared to $68.2 million for the same period in 2013.
  • Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.52, compared to $0.46 per diluted share for the same period in 2013.
  • Adjusted recurring free cash flow of $80.5 million or $0.54, compared to $61.1 million or $0.41 per adjusted diluted share for the same period in 2013.

Daniel H. Leever, Platform's Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Third quarter revenue was solid for the core MacDermid business. We continue to meet our expectations for earnings and cash flow generation. Over the past several months we have successfully entered into three acquisitions that will form our new AgroSolutions business segment, while at the same time keeping our core business focused and performing. This record EBITDA and margin generation in the midst of our M&A activity is a testament to the quality and depth of our management teams."

Frank J. Monteiro, Platform's Chief Financial Officer, added, "Our three and nine months ended adjusted EBITDA numbers represent record levels for Platform. Adjusted non-GAAP Free Cash Flow is also on pace to reach a record level for the full year. When you consider the fact that the underlying business has been tasked with infrastructure additions to support acquisitions that have not yet closed, our year-to-date results are that much stronger as we enter the fourth quarter."

The Company has presented both US GAAP and adjusted financials to better provide investors with measures that allow them to more readily compare the performance of the Company. These adjusted amounts will provide investors insight into the cash generated from operations after taking into consideration reinvestment in the business for Free Cash Flow, Recurring Free Cash Flow, and Adjusted EBITDA.
