The Flavors & Extracts Group reported fourth quarter revenue of $177.4 million compared to $189.1 million reported in the comparable period last year, a decrease of 6.1%, primarily due to the divestiture of the Fragrances product line in April 2021. Adjusted local currency revenue increased 8.0% in the quarter. The higher adjusted local currency revenue was primarily the result of favorable pricing and volume growth. Segment operating income was $21.9 million in the current quarter compared to $23.5 million reported in the comparable period last year, a decrease of 6.7%, primarily due to the divestiture of the Fragrance product line. Adjusted local currency operating income increased 10.6% in the quarter. The higher adjusted local currency operating income was primarily due to the favorable pricing and higher volumes.  Foreign currency translation decreased both segment revenue and operating income by approximately 1% in the quarter.

2022 OUTLOOK

Sensient expects 2022 full year GAAP diluted earnings per share to grow at a mid-teen growth rate compared to the Company’s 2021 reported GAAP diluted earnings per share of $2.81. Our full year 2022 guidance does not include any material divestiture related costs, operational improvement plan costs, or results of divested businesses.

The Company expects 2022 local currency revenue to grow at a mid-single-digit rate compared to the Company’s 2021 adjusted revenue (2). The Company expects 2022 local currency adjusted EBITDA(2) and local currency diluted earnings per share to grow at a high single-digit rate compared to the Company’s 2021 adjusted EBITDA(2) and the Company’s 2021 adjusted diluted earnings per share(2) of $3.13, respectively.

 The Company expects earnings per share reported on a U.S. dollar basis to be impacted by approximately ten cents of foreign currency headwinds based on current exchange rates.

The Company’s guidance is based upon current trends, current tax law, and the effects of COVID-19 to date. The full impacts of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic remain uncertain and management will continue to monitor its impacts on our business.
