THE WOODLANDS, Texas, July 30, 2021 /PRNewswire/ --

Second Quarter Highlights

Second quarter 2021 net income of $172 million compared to net loss of $59 million in the prior year period; second quarter 2021 diluted earnings per share of $0.70 compared to loss per share of $0.28 in the prior year period.

Second quarter 2021 adjusted net income of $191 million compared to adjusted net loss of $30 million in the prior year period; second quarter 2021 adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.86 compared to adjusted loss per share of $0.14 in the prior year period.

Second quarter 2021 adjusted EBITDA of $334 million compared to adjusted EBITDA of $54 million in the prior year period.

Second quarter 2021 net cash used in operating activities from continuing operations was $7 million. Free cash flow from continuing operations was a use of $83 million for the second quarter 2021.

Balance sheet is strong with a net leverage of 1.0x and total liquidity of approximately $1.9 billion. On May 26, 2021, the Company completed a $400 million offering of 2.95% senior notes due 2031. The net proceeds from the offering, along with cash on hand, were used to redeem in full $400 million in aggregate principal amount of the Company's 5.125% senior notes due 2022. These actions will reduce Huntsman's annual cash interest expense by approximately $9 million.

Received the $28 million earnout in May 2021 from the November 2020 divestiture of our India-based do-it-yourself consumer adhesives business. Gross proceeds from the divestiture totaled approximately $285 million, a 15x multiple on 2019 adjusted EBITDA of the divested business.

Huntsman Corporation (NYSE:HUN) today reported second quarter 2021 results with revenues of $2,024 million, net income of $172 million, adjusted net income of $191 million and adjusted EBITDA of $334 million.

Peter R. Huntsman, Chairman, CEO and President, commented:

"We are pleased with second quarter earnings as demand in many of our businesses returned to pre-pandemic levels. The recent acquisitions and synergies already captured in Gabriel, CVC and our Huntsman Building Solutions franchise and several cost optimization initiatives that are well underway, are all contributing to our earnings improvement. We are also making good progress on our organic capital investments, including our MDI splitter project in Geismar, Louisiana, which we now expect to start up in early 2022. We are focused on delivering a strong EBITDA performance and high free cash flow in the second half of 2021. We remain committed to maintain a strong balance sheet and a balanced deployment of our capital including further investments to secure growth. We will showcase our strategic initiatives and the continued transformation of the entire portfolio at our New York City Investor Day on November 9, 2021."

Segment Analysis for 2Q21 Compared to 2Q20

Polyurethanes

The increase in revenues in our Polyurethanes segment for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period of 2020 was largely due to higher MDI average selling prices and higher sales volumes. MDI average selling prices increased mostly in China and Europe. Sales volumes increased primarily due to stronger demand in relation to the ongoing recovery from the global economic slowdown, partially offset by the scheduled turnaround at our Rotterdam, Netherlands facility. The increase in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to higher MDI margins resulting from higher MDI pricing and higher sales volumes as well as stronger earnings from our PO/MTBE joint venture in China, partially offset by higher raw material costs.

Performance Products

The increase in revenues in our Performance Products segment for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period of 2020 was primarily due to higher average selling prices and higher sales volumes. Average selling prices increased primarily due to stronger demand in relation to the ongoing recovery from the global economic slowdown as well as in response to an increase in raw material costs. Sales volumes also increased primarily due to stronger demand. The increase in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to increased revenue and margins, partially offset by increased fixed costs.

Advanced Materials

The increase in revenues in our Advanced Materials segment for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 was primarily due to higher sales volumes, higher average selling prices and the favorable net impact of our recent acquisitions and divestiture. Excluding our recent acquisitions and divestiture and except for our global aerospace business, sales volumes increased across all our specialty markets, primarily in relation to the ongoing recovery from the global economic slowdown. Average selling prices increased largely due to the impact of a weaker U.S. dollar against major international currencies and in response to higher raw material costs. The increase in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to higher sales volumes and the benefit from our recent acquisitions.

Textile Effects

The increase in revenues in our Textile Effects segment for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period of 2020 was due to higher sales volumes, partially offset by lower average selling prices. Sales volumes increased primarily due to increased demand resulting from the ongoing recovery from the global economic slowdown, particularly in Asia. The increase in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to higher sales revenues.

Corporate, LIFO and other

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, adjusted EBITDA from Corporate and other decreased by $16 million to a loss of $48 million from a loss of $32 million for the same period of 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the three months ended June 30, 2021, our adjusted free cash flow from continuing operations was a use of $80 million as compared to positive adjusted free cash flow from continuing operations of $38 million in the prior year period. As of June 30, 2021, we had approximately $1.9 billion of combined cash and unused borrowing capacity.

During the three months ended June 30, 2021, we spent $76 million on capital expenditures as compared to $55 million in the same period of 2020. For 2021 we expect to spend approximately $355 million to $360 million on capital expenditures. The increase in capital expenditures is related to accelerated spending on our splitter investment at our Geismar, Louisiana facility.

Income Taxes

In the second quarter 2021, our adjusted effective tax rate was 20%. For 2021, our adjusted effective tax rate is expected to be approximately 22% - 24%.

Footnotes

(1)	We use adjusted EBITDA to measure the operating performance of our business and for planning and evaluating the performance of our business segments. We provide adjusted net income because we feel it provides meaningful insight for the investment community into the performance of our business. We believe that net income (loss) is the performance measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. ("GAAP") that is most directly comparable to adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss). Additional information with respect to our use of each of these financial measures follows:

	Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted income (loss) per share, as used herein, are not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

	Adjusted EBITDA is computed by eliminating the following from net income (loss): (a) net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, net of tax; (b) interest; (c) income taxes; (d) depreciation and amortization; (e) amortization of pension and postretirement actuarial losses (gains); (f) restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs (credits); and further adjusted for certain other items set forth in the reconciliation of net income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA in Table 4 above.

	Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted income (loss) per share are computed by eliminating the after tax impact of the following items from net income (loss): (a) net income attributable to noncontrolling interest; (b) amortization of pension and postretirement actuarial losses (gains); (c) restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs (credits); and further adjusted for certain other items set forth in the reconciliation of net income (loss) to adjusted net income (loss) in Table 4 above. The income tax impacts, if any, of each adjusting item represent a ratable allocation of the total difference between the unadjusted tax expense and the total adjusted tax expense, computed without consideration of any adjusting items using a with and without approach.

	We do not provide reconciliations for adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss) or adjusted diluted income (loss) per share on a forward-looking basis because we are unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and amount of certain items, such as, but not limited to, (a) business acquisition and integration expenses and purchase accounting adjustments, (b) merger costs, and (c) certain legal and other settlements and related costs. Each of such adjustments have not yet occurred, are out of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.

(2)	Management internally uses free cash flow measure: (a) to evaluate our liquidity, (b) evaluate strategic investments, (c) plan stock buyback and dividend levels and (d) evaluate our ability to incur and service debt. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. Free cash flow is not a defined term under U.S. GAAP, and it should not be inferred that the entire free cash flow amount is available for discretionary expenditures.

(3)	During the third quarter 2019, we entered into an agreement to sell our Chemical Intermediates Businesses. Results from these businesses, including the associated gain on sale, was treated as discontinued operations until the completion of the sale on January 3, 2020.

(4)	We believe adjusted effective tax rate provides improved comparability between periods through the exclusion of certain items that management believes are not indicative of the businesses' operational profitability and that may obscure underlying business results and trends. In our view, effective tax rate is the performance measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP that is most directly comparable to adjusted effective tax rate.

	The reconciliation of historical adjusted effective tax rate and effective tax rate is set forth in Table 4 above. We do not provide reconciliations for adjusted effective tax rate on a forward-looking basis because we are unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and amount of certain items, such as, but not limited to, (a) business acquisition and integration expenses, (b) merger costs, and (c) certain legal and other settlements and related costs. Each of such adjustments has not yet occurred, are out of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.

(5)	Net debt is a measure we use to monitor how much debt we have after taking into account our total cash. We use it as an indicator of our overall financial position, and calculate it by taking our total debt, including the current portion, and subtracting total cash.

(6)	Adjusted free cash flow is defined as free cash flow, as described above, adjusted by excluding the taxes paid in connection with the sale of our Chemical Intermediates Businesses and the sale of our India-based DIY business. We believe that adjusted free cash flow provides a useful comparison from period to period because it excludes the impact of cash taxes unrelated to our operations. Additionally, the proceeds received from the sale of our Chemical Intermediates Businesses and the sale of our India-based DIY business were classified as cash provided by investing activities and therefore was not factored into our free cash flow. As result, we believe the adjustment to exclude the taxes paid associated with these transactions provides a meaningful measure of our free cash flow.
