Graphic Packaging Holding Company (NYSE: GPK), a leading provider of packaging solutions to food, beverage and other consumer products companies, today reported a Net Loss for second quarter 2010 of $(32.8) million, or $(0.10) per share based upon 343.7 million weighted average shares. This compares to second quarter 2009 Net Income of $19.6 million, or $0.06 per share based upon 344.3 million weighted average diluted shares. Adjusted Net Income for the quarter, which excludes $46.6 million of charges associated with the combination with Altivity Packaging, LLC ("Altivity"), was $14.7 million, or $0.04 per diluted share. This compares to second quarter 2009 Adjusted Net Income of $4.8 million, or $0.01 per diluted share. Second quarter 2009 Adjusted Net Income excluded charges associated with the combination with Altivity as well as the Alternative Fuel Tax Credits Net of Expenses.
"Strong operating performance during the quarter offset the negative impacts of higher input costs and lower contractual pricing," said David W. Scheible, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Cost inflation has begun to moderate, however, particularly for secondary fiber and wood. We should also see year-over-year pricing turn positive in the second half of the year as our contracts reset to pass along inflation experienced in the second half of 2009. As a result, I expect to meet our full year targets as we realize these benefits and continue to execute on our continuous improvement initiatives."
Net Sales
Net sales decreased 0.7% to $1,036.5 million during second quarter 2010, compared to second quarter 2009 net sales of $1,043.8 million. The decline was the result of $12 million of lower pricing, partially offset by $3 million related to favorable volume/mix and $2 million related to favorable foreign currency exchange rates.
On a segment basis, in Paperboard Packaging, tons sold increased 1.0% but net sales declined 1.3% compared to the second quarter of 2009. The decline in net sales was driven by lower pricing primarily related to contractual deflationary pass-throughs. Net sales in the Multi-wall Bag and Specialty segments increased 2.6% as a 3.2% increase in volumes was partially offset by unfavorable mix and the divestiture of the Handschy ink business in 2009.
Attached is supplemental data showing second quarter 2010 net sales and net tons sold by each of the Company's business segments: Paperboard Packaging, Multi-wall Bag and Specialty Packaging.
EBITDA
EBITDA for the second quarter 2010 was $97.6 million. EBITDA was impacted by $46.6 million of charges associated with the combination with Altivity. The majority of these one-time charges relate to estimated multi-employer pension withdrawal liabilities and building write-downs of closed Altivity plants. All integration activities related to Altivity were completed as of the end of the second quarter. Excluding these charges and a $0.9 million Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt, Adjusted EBITDA was $145.1 million. This compares to second quarter 2009 EBITDA of $162.5 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $147.7 million. When comparing against the prior year quarter, Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of 2010 was positively impacted by $35 million of improved operating performance and cost reduction initiatives. This was offset by $23 million of higher input cost inflation, $12 million of lower pricing and $3 million related to unfavorable foreign exchange rates.
Other Results
At the end of second quarter 2010, the Company's total debt was $2,765.7 million. The Company generated $125.9 million of Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities in the second quarter of 2010. This compares to $119.0 million in the second quarter of 2009, when excluding cash received from the Alternative Fuel Tax Credit. The Company had $171.6 million of Cash and Cash Equivalents and had not drawn on its $400 million revolving credit facility. The Company's net leverage ratio decreased to 4.56 times at the end of the second quarter 2010 from 5.65 times as of June 30, 2009.
Net interest expense was $45.0 million for second quarter 2010 as compared to net interest expense of $52.5 million in second quarter 2009. The decrease was primarily due to lower debt balances.
Second quarter 2010 income tax expense was $10.2 million, predominately attributable to the non- cash expense associated with the amortization of goodwill for tax purposes. The Company has a $1.3 billion net operating loss carry-forward which may be available to offset future taxable income in the United States.
Capital expenditures for second quarter 2010 were $21.5 million compared to $30.4 million in the second quarter of 2009 reflecting the higher level of capital expenditures last year as a result of integration activities.
Under the terms of its Credit Agreement, the Company must comply with a maximum consolidated secured leverage ratio. As of June 30, 2010, the Company's ratio was 2.89 to 1.00, in compliance with the required maximum ratio of 4.75 to 1.00. The calculation of this covenant, along with a tabular reconciliation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Credit Agreement EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Net Leverage Ratio and Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities excluding Alternative Fuel Tax Credits are attached to this release.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(Continued)
The Credit Agreement dated May 16, 2007, as amended ("the Credit Agreement") and the indentures governing the Company's 9.5% Senior Notes due 2017 and 9.5% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2013 ("the Notes") limit the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness. Additional covenants contained in the Credit Agreement, among other things, restrict the ability of the Company to dispose of assets, incur guarantee obligations, prepay other indebtedness, make dividends and other restricted payments, create liens, make equity or debt investments, make acquisitions, modify terms of the indentures under which the Notes are issued, engage in mergers or consolidations, change the business conducted by the Company and its subsidiaries, and engage in certain transactions with affiliates. Such restrictions, together with the highly leveraged nature of the Company and recent disruptions in the credit markets, could limit the Company's ability to respond to changing market conditions, fund its capital spending program, provide for unexpected capital investments or take advantage of business opportunities.
Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Company must comply with a maximum consolidated secured leverage ratio, which is defined as the ratio of: (a) total long-term and short-term indebtedness of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"), plus the aggregate cash proceeds received by the Company and its subsidiaries from any receivables or other securitization but excluding therefrom (i) all unsecured indebtedness, (ii) all subordinated indebtedness permitted to be incurred under the Credit Agreement, and (iii) all secured indebtedness of foreign subsidiaries to (b) Adjusted EBITDA, which we refer to as Credit Agreement EBITDA(1). Pursuant to this financial covenant, the Company must maintain a maximum consolidated secured leverage ratio of less than the following:
Maximum Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio(1) |
||
October 1, 2009 and thereafter |
4.75 to 1.00 |
|
Note:
(1) Credit Agreement EBITDA is defined in the Credit Agreement as consolidated net income before consolidated net interest expense, non-cash expenses and charges, total income tax expense, depreciation expense, expense associated with amortization of intangibles and other assets, non-cash provisions for reserves for discontinued operations, extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring gains or losses or charges or credits, gain or loss associated with sale or write-down of assets not in the ordinary course of business, any income or loss accounted for by the equity method of accounting, and projected run rate cost savings, prior to or within a twelve month period.
At June 30, 2010, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenant in the Credit Agreement and the ratio was as follows:
Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio — 2.89 to 1.00
The Company's management believes that presentation of the consolidated secured leverage ratio and Credit Agreement EBITDA herein provides useful information to investors because borrowings under the Credit Agreement are a key source of the Company's liquidity, and the Company's ability to borrow under the Credit Agreement is dependent on, among other things, its compliance with the financial ratio covenant. Any failure by the Company to comply with this financial covenant could result in an event of default, absent a waiver or amendment from the lenders under such agreement, in which case the lenders may be entitled to declare all amounts owed to be due and payable immediately.
Credit Agreement EBITDA is a financial measure not calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and is not a measure of net income, operating income, operating performance or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Credit Agreement EBITDA should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to U.S. GAAP results. In addition, Credit Agreement EBITDA may not be comparable to EBITDA or similarly titled measures utilized by other companies because other companies may not calculate Credit Agreement EBITDA in the same manner as the Company does.
The calculations of the components of the maximum consolidated secured leverage ratio for and as of the period ended June 30, 2010 are listed below:

Note:
(a) As defined by the Credit Agreement, this represents projected cost savings expected by the Company to be realized as a result of specific actions taken or expected to be taken prior to or within twelve months of the period in which Credit Agreement EBITDA is to be calculated, net of the amount of actual benefits realized or expected to be realized from such actions.
The terms of the Credit Agreement limit the amount of projected run rate cost savings that may be used in calculating Credit Agreement EBITDA by stipulating that such amount may not exceed the lesser of (i) ten percent of EBITDA as defined in the Credit Agreement for the last twelve-month period (before giving effect to projected run rate cost savings) or (ii) $100 million. As a result, in calculating Credit Agreement EBITDA above, the Company used projected run rate cost savings of $61.1 million, or ten percent of EBITDA, as calculated in accordance with the Credit Agreement, which amount is lower than total projected cost savings identified by the Company, net of actual benefits realized for the twelve month period ended June 30, 2010. Projected run rate cost savings were calculated by the Company solely for its use in calculating Credit Agreement EBITDA for purposes of determining compliance with the maximum consolidated secured leverage ratio contained in the Credit Agreement and should not be used for any other purpose.
(b) Represents consolidated indebtedness/securitization that is either (i) unsecured, or (ii) Permitted Subordinated Indebtedness as defined in the Credit Agreement, or secured indebtedness permitted to be incurred by the Company's foreign subsidiaries per the Credit Agreement.
If inflationary pressures on key inputs resume, or depressed selling prices, lower sales volumes, increased operating costs or other factors have a negative impact on the Company's ability to increase its profitability, the Company may not be able to maintain its compliance with the financial covenant in its Credit Agreement. The Company's ability to comply in future periods with the financial covenant in the Credit Agreement will depend on its ongoing financial and operating performance, which in turn will be subject to economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors, many of which are beyond the Company's control, and will be substantially dependent on the selling prices for the Company's products, raw material and energy costs, and the Company's ability to successfully implement its overall business strategies and meet its profitability objective. If a violation of the financial covenant or any of the other covenants occurred, the Company would attempt to obtain a waiver or an amendment from its lenders, although no assurance can be given that the Company would be successful in this regard. The Credit Agreement and the indentures governing the Notes have certain cross-default or cross-acceleration provisions; failure to comply with these covenants in any agreement could result in a violation of such agreement which could, in turn, lead to violations of other agreements pursuant to such cross-default or cross-acceleration provisions. If an event of default occurs, the lenders are entitled to declare all amounts owed to be due and payable immediately. The Credit Agreement is collateralized by substantially all of the Company's domestic assets.
