DOWNERS GROVE, Ill., Feb. 22, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Univar Inc. (NYSE: UNVR) ("Univar"), a global chemical and ingredients distributor and provider of value-added services, announced today its financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.
For the fourth quarter, Univar reported a net loss of $59.2 million, or ($0.43) per share, impacted by a pre-tax $67.3 million, or an after-tax ($0.35) per share loss for a non-cash pension mark-to-market adjustment, net of curtailment, and a $47.3 million, or ($0.35) per share loss for a non-cash revaluation of deferred taxes resulting from a December 7, 2016, change in US tax law impacting branches outside the US.
Univar reported fourth quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $134.5 million, which was $4.9 million higher than the $129.6 million reported in the fourth quarter of last year due to margin expansion, mix enrichment, and operating expense reductions. The Company reported net sales of $1.8 billion, down $153.8 million or 7.8 percent, and gross profit of $413.3 million, down $6.5 million, or 1.5 percent compared to prior year, largely due to sluggish demand in industrial and upstream oil & gas markets, and a 3.8 percent decline in average selling price. Gross margin of 22.8 percent increased 150 basis points compared to prior year gross margin of 21.3 percent due to price and product mix improvements.
For the full year, Univar reported a net loss of $68.4 million, or ($0.50) per share, compared to net income of $16.5 million, or $0.14 per share reported in the prior year. Full year results included a pre-tax $137.4 million, or after-tax ($0.63) per share, non-cash impairment related charge associated with the Company's upstream oil and gas assets, a pre-tax $67.3 million, or after-tax ($0.35) per share, loss for a non-cash pension mark-to-market adjustment, net of curtailment, and a $47.3 million, or ($0.35) per share, loss for a non-cash revaluation of deferred taxes. Excluding these non-cash charges, full year 2016 net income was $183.6 million or $0.83 per share.
Adjusted EBITDA was $562.7 million compared to $600.1 million in the prior year primarily due to lower demand in the upstream oil and gas markets, sluggish industrial demand, and foreign currency translation headwinds. Despite these headwinds, Canada, EMEA, and Rest of World segments in aggregate grew Adjusted EBITDA 10.8 percent. Gross margin increased 140 basis points to 21.4 percent. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased 30 basis points to 7.0 percent.
In 2016, the Company:
- Launched key strategic priorities of Commercial Greatness, Operational Excellence and One Univar
- Achieved our best safety performance on record with a Total Case Incident Rate (TCIR) of less than 0.69
- Increased gross margins across all business segments
- Reduced consolidated net debt by $319.8 million
"In the second half of 2016, we began the process of changing our culture and mindset to improve our value delivery to customers, drive growth for our supplier partners, and create value for our shareholders. We are seeing early signs our transformation is beginning to take hold," said Steve Newlin, chairman, president and chief executive officer. "Culture change is some of the hardest work within an organization and can take time to reach its full potential. However, the rewards are substantial, and we are building a foundation that consistently delivers sustainable superior earnings growth."
Addressing the Company's results, Univar executive vice president and chief financial officer, Carl Lukach said, "Our strong cash flow in 2016 demonstrates the diversity and resilience of our asset-lite business model. We reduced debt while continuing to reinvest in our business for future growth."

Segment Highlights for the Fourth Quarter 2016 (Versus Fourth Quarter 2015)
USA – Net sales for the USA segment decreased 9.8 percent from $1.2 billion to $1.1 billion primarily due to lower sales to the upstream oil and gas market and lower average selling prices resulting from market driven deflationary pressure. Gross profit decreased $5.5 million, or 2.2 percent, to $246.1 million. Gross margin increased 180 basis points to 22.7 percent, primarily driven by margin maintenance efforts while experiencing lower average selling prices. Adjusted EBITDA decreased 5.3 percent from $82.7 million to $78.3 million as a result of lower gross profit. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased 30 basis points to 7.2 percent reflecting the higher gross margin net of slightly higher operating expenses.
Canada – Net sales for the Canada segment decreased 6.2 percent from $258.1 million to $242.1 million (decreased 8.1 percent on a currency neutral basis), primarily driven by lower sales in the Western Canada oil and gas market. This decline was partially offset by the benefit of acquisitions. Gross profit of $55.1 million was essentially equal to the prior year as lower gross profits from energy markets were offset by higher margin sales in other markets. Gross margin increased 150 basis points to 22.8 percent as a result of mix improvement. Adjusted EBITDA increased 9.7 percent from $22.6 million to $24.8 million due to lower operating costs. On a currency neutral basis, Adjusted EBITDA increased 9.3 percent. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased 140 basis points to 10.2 percent due to higher gross margins.
EMEA – Net sales for the EMEA segment decreased 2.2 percent from $403.1 million to $394.4 million, but increased 1.9 percent on a currency neutral basis, primarily due to modest volume increases and higher average selling prices resulting from changes in product mix. Gross profit was essentially equal to the prior year, and gross margin increased 40 basis points to 23.3 percent as a result of improved product mix and facility closures in 2015. Adjusted EBITDA increased 18.9 percent from $24.3 million to $28.9 million, and Adjusted EBITDA margin increased 130 basis points to 7.3 percent due to lower operating costs.
Rest of World – Net sales for the Rest of World segment decreased 10.4 percent from $102.4 million to $91.7 million. On a currency neutral basis, sales decreased 6.4 percent primarily due to lower demand in Mexico from oil and gas markets, weak industrial demand in Brazil, lower average selling prices, and product mix. Gross profit decreased 2.9 percent from $20.7 million to $20.1 million, but was flat on a currency neutral basis. Gross margin increased 170 basis points to 21.9 percent due to improved mix. Adjusted EBITDA increased $3.7 million from $4.1 million to $7.8 million largely due to actions to reduce spending in light of weak industrial demand. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased 450 basis points to 8.5 percent.
Outlook
The Company's operating plan for 2017 includes further advances in executing Univar's Commercial Greatness and Operational Excellence initiatives. These expected gains, however, will likely be partially offset by selective commercial and technology investments, and FX translation headwinds. As a result, the Company expects low single digit Adjusted EBITDA growth in the first half, accelerating to near double-digit growth by year end as its initiatives take hold. Overall, Univar expects to deliver mid-single digit Adjusted EBITDA growth in 2017.
For the first quarter of 2017, the Company expects Adjusted EBITDA to be slightly above last year's first quarter of $134.1 million as it invests in, and executes against its initiatives.
Univar to Host Webcast on Feb. 22 at 9:00 a.m. EDT
The Company will host a webcast with investors to discuss the fourth-quarter results at 9:00 a.m. EDT on Feb. 22, which can be accessed on the Investor Relations section of its website at http://investor.univar.com. Following the event, an archived version of the webcast and supporting materials will be available on the same website.
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin
The Company monitors the results of its operating segments separately for the purposes of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. The Company evaluates performance on the basis of Adjusted EBITDA, which it defines as its consolidated net income (loss), plus the sum of interest expense, net of interest income, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation, amortization, other operating expenses, net (which primarily consists of pension mark to market adjustments, acquisition and integration related expenses, employee stock-based compensation expense, redundancy and restructuring costs, advisory fees paid to stockholders, and other unusual or non-recurring expenses), impairment charges, loss on extinguishment of debt and other income (expense), net (which consists of gains and losses on foreign currency transactions and undesignated derivative instruments, ineffective portion of cash flow hedges, debt refinancing costs, and other non-operating activity). Adjusted EBITDA margin is Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is an important indicator of operating performance because:
- Adjusted EBITDA excludes the effects of income taxes, as well as the effects of financing and investing activities by eliminating the effects of interest, depreciation and amortization expenses;
- The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA in setting performance incentive targets;
- The Company considers gains (losses) on the acquisition, disposal and impairment of assets as resulting from investing decisions rather than ongoing operations; and
- Other significant items, while periodically affecting the Company's results, may vary significantly from period to period and have a disproportionate effect in a given period, which affects comparability of its results.
Use of Non-GAAP Measures
The Company's management believes that certain financial measures that do not comply with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") provide relevant and meaningful information concerning the ongoing operating results of the Company. Such non-GAAP financial measures are used from time to time herein but should not be viewed as a substitute for GAAP measures of performance. Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to GAAP are provided in Schedules B and E.

1 - The pension mark to market loss is measured and recognized in its entirety within the statement of operations annually on December 31. The non-cash adjustment primarily includes the difference between the expected return on plan assets and the actual return on plan assets as well as differences resulting from assumption changes and changes in plan experience between the prior pension measurement date and the current pension measurement date. For details of pension expense both included in and excluded from Adjusted EBITDA, see Schedule F. |
