PolyOne Announces Third Quarter 2018 Results
- Revenue increased 8% to $883 million, primarily driven by 6% organic growth with acquisitions adding approximately 2%
- GAAP earnings per share of $0.62 vs. $0.49 in the prior year third quarter
- Adjusted EPS expanded 7% to $0.62 despite higher raw material and freight costs and weaker foreign currencies
- Recently announced dividend increase for the seventh year in a row to $0.78 on an annualized basis
CLEVELAND, Oct. 24, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- PolyOne Corporation (NYSE: POL) today reported its third quarter results for 2018. GAAP earnings per share was $0.62 in the third quarter of 2018 compared to $0.49 in the third quarter of 2017. Adjusted earnings per share expanded to $0.62 in the third quarter of 2018 from $0.58 in the third quarter of 2017. Special items for the third quarter of 2018 primarily included environmental costs offset by one-time tax benefits associated with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, resulting in a net after-tax gain of $0.2 million (see Attachment 1).
"Our investments in commercial resources and specialty acquisitions continue to drive our growth, as we delivered an 8% increase in revenue and a 7% increase in adjusted EPS for the third quarter," said Robert M. Patterson, chairman, president and chief executive officer, PolyOne Corporation. "Color, Additives & Inks led the way, with revenue and operating income up 11% and 13% respectively over the prior year quarter. Engineered Materials also had a very good quarter, driven by growth in composites, which led to an expansion of profitability for the segment as a whole."
The company reported organic sales growth of 6.1% while acquisitions added 2.3%. Weaker foreign currencies offset sales growth by 0.5%.
Mr. Patterson added, "I am pleased with these results considering that higher raw material and freight costs and weaker foreign currencies negatively impacted us in the quarter. In addition, in September we also experienced a demand slowdown in certain end markets such as building and construction and appliance as well as slower growth in Asia."
The company noted customers are citing concerns over tariffs and persistent inflation as possible drivers of these demand conditions, which most heavily impacted the Performance Products and Solutions (PP&S) and Distribution segments. Based on customer feedback, this is likely to continue for the balance of the year. If so, lower operating income from PP&S and Distribution could offset continued growth in Color, Additives & Inks and Engineered Materials in the fourth quarter.
"We remain focused on providing our customers exemplary service and helping them navigate these near-term dynamics. Our additional investments in commercial resources and specialty acquisitions position us well to support our customers and capture additional long term growth," said Mr. Patterson.

Senior management uses comparisons of adjusted net income from continuing operations attributable to PolyOne shareholders and diluted adjusted earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations attributable to PolyOne 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 PolyOne's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature, tend to obscure PolyOne'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. See Attachment 3 for a definition and summary of special items.

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 PolyOne 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 PolyOne's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature, tend to obscure PolyOne'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. See Attachment 3 for a definition and summary of special items. |
