Delivers solid sequential and year-over-year financial results across all segments and raises 2022 Adjusted EBITDA guidance

Strengthens financial position with receipt of Asia business sale proceeds and pension settlement

Improves operational performance

Third Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights:

Net Revenues of $1,609 million for the third quarter of 2022 were down 2% compared to $1,640 million in the second quarter of 2022 with 3% attributed to volume decline, partially offset by 2% growth due to price/mix. Net revenues were up 15% compared to $1,394 million in the third quarter of 2021 with attributions of 17% growth due to price/mix and 8% growth due to acquisitions, partially offset by 8% volume decline and 2% decline due to dispositions.
Net Income from continuing operations was $175 million for the third quarter of 2022 compared to $74 million in the second quarter of 2022 and $2 million in the third quarter of 2021.
Adjusted EBITDA¹ of $187 million for the third quarter of 2022 decreased 25% compared to $249 million in the second quarter of 2022 and increased 57% compared to $119 million in the third quarter of 2021.

LAKE FOREST, Ill., Nov. 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pactiv Evergreen Inc. ("Pactiv Evergreen" or the "Company") today reported results for the third quarter of 2022. Michael King, President and Chief Executive Officer of Pactiv Evergreen, said, "Following strong volumes and pricing during the second quarter of 2022, the Company reported an expected sequential decline in net revenues as the timing of certain resin pass throughs weighed on our overall price/mix growth while sales volume softened. Net income from continuing operations increased compared to Q2 primarily due to the gain recognized from the sale of Beverage Merchandising Asia. However, Adjusted EBITDA¹ decreased as expected, impacted by the timing of certain resin pass throughs as customer spending moderated and material cost inflationary pressures continued.

The Company is encouraged by the continued progress made in its logistics, cubing and general operations across the business which led to another strong financial quarter. The strategic inventory build earlier this year supported solid improvement in customer service levels. The Company has also stabilized its labor levels which is expected to improve its productivity over coming quarters. While operational improvements continue, the Company remains cautious due to the continued inflationary pressures in the market as well as their potential impact on end market volume demand. Despite these pressures, the Company is cautiously optimistic that its strong year to date performance will continue into the fourth quarter and is raising its full year Adjusted EBITDA¹ guidance to a range of $760 million to $780 million."²

Jon Baksht, Chief Financial Officer of Pactiv Evergreen, added, "The Company has taken meaningful strides in deleveraging the balance sheet over the past year by both improving its operations across the enterprise and managing its cash and outstanding debt levels. This has resulted in a reduction of Net Debt³ to $3.7 billion, and the Company's Net Leverage Ratio³ has improved to 4.5x from 7.6x in Q4 2021."

² The Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA without unreasonable effort because of the uncertainty and potential variability in amount and timing of gains or losses on the sale of businesses and noncurrent assets, non-cash pension income or expense, unrealized gains or losses on derivatives and foreign exchange gains or losses on cash, which are reconciling items between GAAP net income from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA and could significantly impact GAAP results.

Positioning the Company for Future Growth

Pactiv Evergreen continues to execute on strategic priorities to deleverage and focus on core competencies, thus better positioning the Company for future growth:

On September 20, 2022, with Pactiv Evergreen Pension Plan ("PEPP") assets, the Company purchased non-participating group annuity contracts from two affiliate insurance companies and transferred $656 million of pension plan gross liabilities. As a result of this and the July 2021 and February 2022 transactions, in aggregate, the Company has reduced gross PEPP liabilities by $2,900 million.
In September 2022, the Company committed to a plan to fully divest its remaining closures businesses and expects the process to be completed within the next twelve months.
On August 2, 2022, the Company closed the sale of its carton packaging and filling machinery businesses in China, Korea and Taiwan ("Beverage Merchandising Asia") to SIG Schweizerische Industrie-Gesellschaft GmbH and received preliminary proceeds of $336 million, which are subject to adjustments for cash, indebtedness and working capital as of the date of completion and exclude taxes. The Company recognized a preliminary gain on sale of $239 million in the third quarter of 2022.

Third Quarter 2022 Results vs. Second Quarter 2022 Results

Net revenues in the third quarter of 2022 were $1,609 million compared to $1,640 million in the second quarter of 2022. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales volumes, primarily due to the market softening amid inflationary pressures and seasonal trends in the Foodservice and Food Merchandising segments. The decrease was partially offset by favorable pricing, due to the contractual pass-through of higher material costs and pricing actions, most notably in the Food Merchandising and Beverage Merchandising segments.

Net income from continuing operations was $175 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $74 million in the second quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily due to the $239 million gain on the sale of Beverage Merchandising Asia and a $46 million increase in non-operating income due to a pension settlement gain. These increases were partially offset by $76 million of lower gross profit, largely driven by higher material and manufacturing costs and lower sales volume, a $56 million asset impairment charge related to the strategic decision to exit the remaining closures businesses and a $34 million increase in tax expense, primarily attributable to the gain on the sale of Beverage Merchandising Asia.

Adjusted EBITDA¹ was $187 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $249 million in the second quarter of 2022. The decrease was due to higher material costs, net of material costs passed through, lower sales volume and higher manufacturing costs.

Third Quarter 2022 Results vs. Third Quarter 2021 Results

Net revenues in the third quarter of 2022 were $1,609 million compared to $1,394 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to favorable pricing, due to the contractual pass-through of higher material costs and pricing actions across all of its segments. In addition, the Foodservice segment's acquisition of Fabri-Kal on October 1, 2021 contributed $114 million of incremental sales for the third quarter of 2022 as compared to the third quarter of 2021. These increases were partially offset by lower sales volume, primarily due to strong sales volume in the prior year period as businesses and restaurants re-opened post-COVID-19 lockdowns in the Foodservice segment, the market softening amid inflationary pressures in the Food Merchandising segment and its strategic exit from the coated groundwood business in the Beverage Merchandising segment in December 2021, and the impact from the disposition of Beverage Merchandising Asia.

Net income from continuing operations was $175 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $2 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to the $239 million gain on the sale of Beverage Merchandising Asia. In addition, the increase was due to $129 million of higher gross profit, largely driven by favorable pricing, net of higher material and manufacturing costs, and the contribution from the acquisition of Fabri-Kal. These increases were partially offset by a $92 million increase in tax expense, primarily attributable to the gain on the sale of Beverage Merchandising Asia and improved profitability, a $56 million asset impairment charge related to the strategic decision to exit the remaining closures businesses and a $41 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses, primarily driven by higher employee-related costs and higher costs related to the acquisition of Fabri-Kal.

Adjusted EBITDA¹ was $187 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $119 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase reflects favorable pricing, net of material costs passed through, and the impact from the acquisition of Fabri-Kal, partially offset by higher manufacturing and employee-related costs and lower sales volume.

Segment Adjusted EBITDA	$	26		$	16		$	10		63	%
Segment Adjusted EBITDA margin		6	%		4	%

The increase in net revenues was primarily due to favorable pricing, due to pricing actions taken to offset higher input costs and the contractual pass-through of higher material costs. The increase was partially offset by the impact from the disposition of Beverage Merchandising Asia and lower sales volume, primarily due to the strategic exit from the coated groundwood business in December 2021. Excluding the shutdown of the coated groundwood business, sales volume increased 3% versus the prior year.

The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to favorable pricing, net of material costs passed through, and the prior year period incurring $7 million of costs from Tropical Storm Fred. These items were partially offset by higher manufacturing costs, including $8 million due to a scheduled cold mill outage, and higher employee-related costs.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights

The Company continues to focus on strengthening its balance sheet, and its Net Leverage Ratio³ has improved since the prior quarter end, largely due to the cash proceeds received from the sale of Beverage Merchandising Asia as well as continued improvement in its trailing twelve month Adjusted EBITDA.¹ The Company's Free Cash Flow⁴ has also improved compared to the second quarter of 2022, primarily due to the completion of the strategic inventory build. The Company paid dividends to shareholders of $0.30 per share during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The Company's Board of Directors declared a third quarter 2022 dividend on November 3, 2022 of $0.10 per share of common stock, payable on December 15, 2022 to shareholders of record as of November 30, 2022.

Outlook

"While external challenges related to inflationary pressures, energy price volatility, volume pressure and possible recession fears exist, the Company's operations continue to improve. The Company now expects its 2022 Adjusted EBITDA¹ to range between $760 million and $780 million, a modest improvement against the previously communicated guidance range of $750 million to $770 million, as the business is expected to continue its strong performance into year end,"² said Mr. King.

^{____________________________

4} Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP measure. Refer to its definition in the discussion on non-GAAP financial measures and the accompanying reconciliation below.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company sometimes uses the following financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"): Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, Net Debt and Net Leverage Ratio. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income from continuing operations calculated in accordance with GAAP plus the sum of income tax expense (benefit), net interest expense, depreciation and amortization and further adjusted to exclude certain items, including but not limited to restructuring, asset impairment and other related charges, gains on the sale of businesses and noncurrent assets, non-cash pension income or expense, operational process engineering-related consultancy costs, business acquisition and integration costs and purchase accounting adjustments, unrealized gains or losses on derivatives, foreign exchange losses on cash, executive transition charges and gains or losses on certain legal settlements. The Company defines Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. The Company defines Net Debt as the sum of current and long-term debt, less cash and cash equivalents. The Company defines the Net Leverage Ratio as Net Debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA for the last 12 months ("LTM Adjusted EBITDA").

The Company has provided herein a reconciliation of (i) Adjusted EBITDA to net income from continuing operations, (ii) Free Cash Flow to net cash provided by operating activities, (iii) Net Debt to total debt and (iv) the Net Leverage Ratio to total debt and net income from continuing operations (by virtue of the reconciliation to Adjusted EBITDA referred to in clause (i)), in each case representing the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

The Company presents Adjusted EBITDA to assist it in comparing performance from period to period and as a measure of operational performance. It is also a key measure used by its management team to generate future operating plans, make strategic decisions and incentivize and reward its employees. In addition, its management uses the Adjusted EBITDA of each reportable segment to evaluate its respective operating performance. Accordingly, the Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the Company's operating results in the same manner as its management and board of directors. The Company also believes that using Adjusted EBITDA facilitates operating performance comparisons on a period-to-period basis because it excludes variations primarily caused by changes in the items noted above. The Company presents Free Cash Flow to assist it in comparing liquidity from period to period and to obtain a more comprehensive view of the Company's core operations and ability to generate cash flow, and also, as with Adjusted EBITDA, to generate future operating plans, make strategic decisions and incentivize and reward its employees. The Company believes that this measure is useful to investors in evaluating cash available to service and repay debt, make other investments and pay dividends. The Company presents Net Debt and Net Leverage Ratio as supplemental measures to review the liquidity of its operations and measure the Company's credit position and progress toward leverage targets. The Company also believes that investors find these measures useful in evaluating its debt levels.

Non-GAAP information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our non-GAAP metrics may not be the same as or comparable to similar non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies. Because of these and other limitations, you should consider them alongside other financial performance measures, including our net income and other GAAP results. In addition, in evaluating Adjusted EBITDA and other metrics derived from it, including Net Leverage Ratio, you should be aware that in the future the Company will incur expenses such as those that are the subject of adjustments in deriving Adjusted EBITDA and you should not infer from our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA that our future results will not be affected by these expenses or any unusual or non-recurring items.
