Stepan Reports Fourth Quarter 2024 Results

, /PRNewswire/ -- Stepan Company (NYSE: SCL) today reported: Fourth Quarter 2024 Highlights Reported net income was $3.4 million versus a $1.2 million net loss in the prior year. Adjusted net income(1) was $2.8 million, down 63% versus prior year, largely due to higher pre-commissioning expenses at our new alkoxylation investment in Pasadena, Texas ($4.4 million increase), a one-time tax proceeding reserve of $2.9 million recorded in our Latin American operations and higher expenses associated with the previously announced CEO transition in the fourth quarter of 2024. EBITDA(2) was $35.8 million and Adjusted EBITDA(2) was $35.0 million, up 39% and down 7% respectively, year-over-year. Global sales volume was down 1% year-over-year. Double digit growth in several Surfactant end markets was fully offset by demand weakness in Polymers. Cash from Operations was $68.3 million during the quarter. Free cash flow(3) for the quarter was $32.1 million. The Company delivered $13.0 million in pre-tax cost out savings in the fourth quarter of 2024. YTD 2024 Highlights Reported net income was $50.4 million, up 25% versus prior year. Adjusted net income(1) was $50.5 million, flat versus prior year. EBITDA(2) was $186.9 million and Adjusted EBITDA(2) was $187.0 million, up 13% and 4% respectively, year-over-year. Global sales volume was up 1% year-over-year. Free cash flow(3) for the year was $39.3 million versus a negative $85.5 million in the prior year. The Company delivered $48.0 million in cost out savings for 2024 despite significant one-time extra costs, including higher operating costs at our Millsdale site, primarily related to a flood event during the first half of 2024, and higher costs related to a criminal fraud event at a subsidiary in Asia. "While we are disappointed with our overall financial performance in 2024, we advanced our strategic investments and took necessary steps to return the Company to profitable growth. I am proud of the resilience, hard work and dedication of the entire organization. Full year Adjusted EBITDA grew 4% versus prior year despite several one-time events that negatively impacted earnings and the pre-operating expenses in our new Pasadena, site," said Luis E. Rojo, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Surfactants and Specialty Products delivered strong double-digit Adjusted EBITDA growth, partially offset by demand weakness in Polymers. Overall, global sales volume grew 1%, driven by 2.5% growth in our Surfactant business. We are encouraged by the Surfactant growth within several of our key strategic end markets. We delivered $39 million of free cash flow, which was in line with our expectations, and we increased our dividend for the 57th consecutive year. We completed the majority of our new Pasadena, Texas site which is critical to growing our alkoxylation business. Our strong foundation, combined with the cost reductions and strategic investments we have made, position us well to deliver future growth."

Percentage Change in Net Sales Net sales in the fourth quarter of 2024 decreased 1% year-over-year. This slight decrease reflects higher selling prices that were more than offset by a 1% decline in sales volume and the negative impact of foreign currency translation.

Consolidated adjusted EBITDA(2) decreased $2.5 million, or 7%, year-over-year largely due to the demand shortfall in Polymers and higher expenses associated with the Latin American tax proceeding reserve and the previously announced fourth quarter CEO transition. Surfactant net sales were $378.8 million for the quarter, a 3% increase versus the prior year. Selling prices were up 5% primarily due to improved product and customer mix. Sales volume was up 1% year-over-year primarily due to double digit growth within the Agricultural and Oilfield end markets along with our distribution partners. This growth was partially offset by lower demand within the Consumer Products end markets. Foreign currency translation negatively impacted net sales by 3%. Surfactant operating income for the quarter increased $1.3 million, or 9%, versus the prior year. Surfactant adjusted EBITDA(2) increased $3.1 million, or 10%, versus the prior year. This increase was primarily driven by the 1% growth in sales volume and slight margin improvement, partially offset by pre-operating expenses at the Company's new alkoxylation facility being built in Pasadena, Texas and the tax proceeding reserve recognized in Latin American operations. Polymer net sales were $129.8 million for the quarter, a 12% decrease versus the prior year. Selling prices decreased 4%, primarily due to the pass-through of lower raw material costs and competitive pressures. Sales volume declined 9% in the quarter primarily due to an 11% decrease in global Rigid Polyols demand. Specialty Polyols volume was up year-over-year. Foreign currency translation positively impacted net sales by 1%. Polymer operating income decreased $9.2 million, or 73%, versus the prior year. Polymer adjusted EBITDA(2) decreased $9.1 million, or 44%, versus the prior year primarily due to the 9% decline in sales volume. Specialty Product net sales were $17.0 million for the quarter, a 10% increase versus the prior year, primarily due to higher sales volume and higher selling prices. Sales volume was up 32% versus the prior year. Specialty Product operating income increased $2.8 million, or 102%, versus the prior year. Specialty Product adjusted EBITDA(2) increased $2.8 million, or 65%. The increase in adjusted EBITDA(2) was primarily due to margin recovery and higher sales volume within the medium chain triglycerides product line. Income Taxes The Company's full year effective tax rate was 16.7% in 2024 versus 16.9% in 2023. This small decrease was comprised of various offsetting items, most notably a favorable non-recurring deferred tax adjustment in 2024 that offset an unfavorable foreign rate differential in 2024. Outlook "As we look forward to 2025, I am excited and energized to continue our focus on accelerating our business strategies through improved execution to drive consistent volume growth, margin improvement and free cash flow generation. We believe Adjusted EBITDA will improve in all of our reporting segments. The Stepan Team is executing on opportunities to grow volume, deliver improved product and customer mix and further progress our cost out and cost avoidance initiatives. We are optimistic that Polymer demand will increase as we execute our innovation and growth plans. We believe our Surfactant business will experience continued growth in our key strategic end markets," said Luis E. Rojo, President and Chief Executive Officer. "As previously announced, we expect our Pasadena facility will start up in the first quarter of 2025 and enable us to deliver volume growth and Supply Chain savings during the year. We believe we are positioned well to deliver full year Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income growth and positive free cash flow in 2025."

The Company uses this non-GAAP information as an indicator of business performance and evaluates management's effectiveness with specific reference to these indicators. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information because they exclude non-operational items that affect comparability between years. These measures should be considered in addition to, not as substitutes for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies. The Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 contains additional information regarding the use of non-GAAP financial measures. Summary of Fourth Quarter 2024 Adjusted Net Income Items Adjusted net income excludes non-operational deferred compensation income/expense, cash-settled SARs income/expense, certain environmental remediation costs and other significant and infrequent or non-recurring items. Deferred Compensation: The fourth quarter of 2024 reported net income includes $0.8 million of after-tax income versus $2.2 million of after-tax expense in the prior year. Environmental Remediation: The fourth quarter of 2024 reported net income includes $0.2 million of after-tax expense versus $0.4 million of after-tax expense in the prior year. Table III Reconciliation of Pre-Tax to After-Tax Adjustments Management uses the non-GAAP adjusted net income metric to evaluate the Company's operating performance. Management excludes the items listed in the table below because they are non-operational items. The cumulative tax effect was calculated using the statutory tax rates for the jurisdictions in which the transactions occurred.
