COVID-19 Update

Aptar is a global provider of drug delivery, consumer product dispensing and active packaging solutions. We are deemed an essential supplier to critical infrastructure industries identified by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and have obtained similar designations by most other governments in the 20 countries in which we have a presence. In order to fulfil our purpose, our global operations remain open, albeit some at low utilization levels. We had a limited number of smaller locations that had closed for a short period of time during the quarter and are now open again. Most of our customers and suppliers also continue to operate though a few have decided to suspend certain operations. To date, we have experienced certain supply chain disruptions though we have been able to maintain supply from our primary suppliers. We continue to monitor the evolving COVID-19 pandemic and its implications to our business, our supply chain and our end markets.

“I am extremely proud of our dedicated employees around the world who have risen to this unprecedented challenge to ensure the supply of our solutions to the critical infrastructure industries of food, healthcare and consumer products,” explained Stephan Tanda, President and CEO. Aptar provides dispensing and packaging solutions for food and beverage products including closures for infant nutrition, condiments and many other at-home meal staples. Aptar’s drug delivery and active packaging solutions include valves for pulmonary metered dose inhalers for critical asthma medication, nasal spray pumps for allergy treatments and certain life-saving medications, stoppers and needle shields for many injectable medications and vaccines, and active packaging solutions that protect diabetes test strips and other critical medication. In addition, Aptar provides a range of dispensing solutions for hand sanitizers, antibacterial soaps and lotions, and valves and closures for disinfectants and cleaners.

Health, Safety and Business Continuity

“Our top priority is the health and safety of our people while we maintain uninterrupted supply to the critical industries we are supporting. This is an extraordinary period where the entire supply chain is banding together to help in the global battle against COVID-19. I am convinced we and many other business partners will become even stronger and more closely-knit organizations because of this call to action,” said Tanda. Due to the COVID-19 crisis, Aptar has taken several actions within its leadership team and across its global manufacturing facilities. At the start of the crisis, Aptar formed a Global COVID-19 Action Team of senior leaders who meet daily to assess the current situation, take actions and mitigate risks to employees, customers and suppliers. The Company also implemented a COVID-19 Exposure Control Plan that was prepared by Aptar’s Environmental, Health and Safety specialists, and the Executive Committee is informed in real-time of any COVID-19 instances, including on-site actions taken. In addition, to honor, thank and motivate Aptar’s dedicated workforce during this challenging time, the Company has declared a one-time cash Thank You Award for the majority of employees who have done a tremendous job maintaining supply to customers and keeping Aptar’s facilities running. The impact of this one-time award on first quarter results was approximately $3.6 million (pretax) and a similar impact is expected in the second quarter.


In its facilities, Aptar is providing masks to its front-line teams as they become available and has escalated cleaning and sanitizing procedures. The Company has also implemented plans to have a proper balance of remote workers and on-site staff in order to support customers and ongoing production and is restricting all visitors to only those essential for business continuity. In addition, Aptar is restricting access to its canteens and cafeterias to production teams only and is encouraging everyone to practice good hygiene and social distancing. Aptar will continue to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and take actions to mitigate risk to its employee and operations, including during upcoming deconfinement stages.

Liquidity

Tanda also commented on liquidity, “Our balance sheet remains strong and we are generating cash. We also could borrow additional funds under our existing agreements. After closing on the FusionPKG transaction subsequent to the quarter, we remain approximately two times levered. The dividend policy remains unchanged. We have temporarily paused our share repurchase program as a precautionary measure given near-term uncertainties.” As of March 31, 2020, Aptar had available cash and equivalents of approximately $411 million with the capacity to borrow under existing revolving credit facilities up to an additional approximately $265 million. Aptar’s debt totaled approximately $1.4 billion as of March 31, 2020, with $56 million maturing in 2020. The Company generated free cash flow (cash flow from operations less capital expenditures) of $23 million in the first quarter.

First Quarter Results

For the quarter ended March 31, 2020, reported sales decreased to $722 million compared to $744 million in the prior year. Core sales, excluding the negative impact from changes in currency exchange rates and positive acquisition effects, decreased approximately 2%.

Core Sales Growth (9 %) 7 % (2 %) (2 %)
Acquisitions 0 % 4 % 0 % 1 %
Currency Effects ^(1)^ (3 %) (2 %) (2 %) (2 %)
Total Reported Sales Growth (12 %) 9 % (4 %) (3 %)
(1) - Currency effects are approximated by translating last year's amounts at this year's foreign exchange rates.

Commenting on the quarter, Tanda said, “The diversity of our business continues to be a key strength of Aptar. Our Pharma business had another good quarter while our other two segments struggled, in part due to decreased demand in several markets related to COVID-19. We continue to support the fight against COVID-19 by providing essential solutions and repurposing some of our products, such as airless packaging, cosmetic pumps and, in some cases, even beverage closures, to be used with sanitizers and cleaners in different parts of the world.”

Aptar’s Pharma segment posted core sales growth across each end market with particularly strong growth in the injectables and active packaging businesses. Offsetting the growth in the Pharma segment were core sales declines in Aptar’s other two segments, in part due to COVID-19 impacts. The Beauty + Home segment was negatively impacted by reduced orders from customers providing prestige beauty products, mainly in the travel retail and standard retail settings. Many beauty retailers began closing toward the end of the quarter in response to government shelter in place regulations. Increased demand for Aptar’s dispensing solutions for hand sanitizers and cleaners was not enough to offset the declines in the beauty market and declines in personal care categories including haircare and sunscreen. The Food + Beverage segment was negatively impacted by the passing on of lower resin costs to our customers as well as a decrease in food service and on-the-go beverage closure sales due to the COVID-19 crisis.

Aptar reported first quarter earnings per share of $0.84 compared to $0.96 reported for the same period a year ago. Current year adjusted earnings per share, excluding restructuring expenses and acquisition-related costs, were $0.93 and down 11% from the prior year adjusted earnings per share, including comparable exchange rates, of $1.05. Included in Aptar’s first quarter results for 2020 are expenses of $3.6 million (pretax) related to a cash Thank You Award for employees.


Outlook

Factors that could impact Aptar’s second quarter results, include among other things, the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, the pace and scope of reopening in regions that are currently under government confinement orders, the speed at which beauty and other retail stores open, the willingness of consumers to participate in those shopping channels, the rate at which airline travel will resume and the general level of on-the-go consumption particularly with certain beverage products.

“Although there is significant near-term uncertainty, we expect the coming quarter to mark the worst of the expected COVID-19 impacts on our business and we anticipate a gradual recovery in the second half of the year. Our broad portfolio of dispensing, drug delivery and active packaging solutions, combined with our growing services platforms and new partnerships, are the core strengths which have enabled, and will continue to enable, us to grow over the long-term. Also, our balance sheet remains in excellent condition and we will continue to diligently manage our costs and capacities to align with the changing market conditions,” stated Tanda.

Aptar expects the near-term effects related to the COVID-19 pandemic to continue through the second quarter and anticipates that they will be more pronounced than the Company experienced in the first quarter. The results of Aptar’s Beauty + Home segment are expected to be significantly impacted by continued softness across each end market primarily related to the effects of COVID-19. In addition, the Food + Beverage segment, which had very strong growth in the prior year second quarter, is expected to see continued softness in the on-the-go beverage market primarily related to COVID-19 and the impact from passing on lower resin costs. Aptar’s Pharma segment is facing difficult comparisons compared to the prior year’s exceptional growth, especially within its prescription division. Aptar’s second quarter results are expected to include expenses of approximately $3.6 million (pretax) related to the Thank You Award being given to employees.

Aptar expects earnings per share for the second quarter of 2020, excluding any restructuring expenses and acquisition-related costs, to be in the range of $0.58 to $0.73 and this guidance is based on an effective tax rate range of 31% to 33%.

Cash Dividend

As previously announced, the Board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.36 per share. The payment date is May 20, 2020, to stockholders of record as of April 29, 2020.

Open Conference Call

There will be a conference call on Friday, May 1, 2020 at 8:00 a.m. Central Time to discuss the Company’s first quarter results for 2020. The call will last approximately one hour. Interested parties are invited to listen to a live webcast by visiting the Investor Relations page at www.aptar.com.

Presentation of Non-GAAP Information

This press release refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures, including current year adjusted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA, which exclude the impact of business transformation charges (restructuring initiatives), acquisition-related expenses and certain purchase accounting adjustments related to acquisitions and investments. Core sales and adjusted earnings per share also neutralize the impact of foreign currency translation effects when comparing current results to the prior year. Non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures provided by other companies. Aptar’s management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to our investors because they allow for a better period over period comparison of operating results by removing the impact of items that, in management’s view, do not reflect Aptar’s core operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures also provide investors with certain information used by Aptar’s management when making financial and operational decisions. Free cash flow is calculated as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. We use free cash flow to measure cash flow generated by operations that is available for dividends, share repurchases, acquisitions and debt repayment. We believe that it is meaningful to investors in evaluating our financial performance and measure our ability to generate cash internally to fund our initiatives. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial results but should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and other information presented herein. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is included in the accompanying tables. Our outlook is provided on a non-GAAP basis because certain reconciling items are dependent on future events that either cannot be controlled, such as exchange rates, or reliably predicted because they are not part of the Company's routine activities, such as restructuring and acquisition costs.


This press release contains forward-looking statements, including certain statements set forth under the “Outlook” section of this press release and statements regarding the anticipated impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “future,” “potential” and other similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “should,” “would” and “could” are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are based on our beliefs as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to us. Accordingly, our actual results or other events may differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements due to known or unknown risks and uncertainties that exist in our operations and business environment including, but not limited to: outbreaks of pandemics, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our global supply chain and our global customers and operations; the successful integration of acquisitions and the achievement of the expected benefits of acquisitions and investments; the impact of tax reform legislation including changes in tax rates and other tax-related events or transactions that could impact our effective tax rate; the execution of the business transformation plan; economic conditions worldwide including potential deflationary or inflationary conditions or economic downturn or uncertainty in regions we rely on for growth as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic or otherwise; political conditions worldwide; significant fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; changes in customer and/or consumer spending levels; financial conditions of customers and suppliers; consolidations within our customer or supplier bases; fluctuations in the cost of materials, components and other input costs; the availability of raw materials and components; our ability to successfully implement facility expansions and new facility projects; our ability to increase prices, contain costs and improve productivity; changes in capital availability or cost, including interest rate fluctuations; volatility of global credit markets; cybersecurity threats that could impact our networks and reporting systems; fiscal and monetary policies and other regulations; direct or indirect consequences of acts of war or terrorism; work stoppages due to labor disputes; and the impact of public health crises or other significant or catastrophic events.
