Tenneco Reports Third Quarter 2017 Results

Tenneco (NYSE: TEN) reported third quarter net income of $77 million, or $1.45 per diluted share, compared with net income* of $179 million, or $3.19 per diluted share, which included the benefit of a foreign tax credit adjustment in third quarter 2016.

Adjusted net income increased to $88 million, or $1.67 per diluted share, versus $85 million, or $1.51 per diluted share a year ago*, an 11% improvement on a per share basis.

Revenue

Total revenue in the third quarter was a record high $2.274 billion, up 8% year-over-year, driven by increases in both the Ride Performance and Clean Air product lines. On a constant currency basis, total revenue increased 6% to $2.223 billion, driven by incremental content, new program launches, and the company’s strong position on leading platforms globally.

In constant currency, value-add revenue grew 6% versus last year to $1.7 billion, with Ride Performance increasing 8% and Clean Air up 5%. Tenneco’s value-add revenue growth outpaced underlying industry production growth** in all OE applications. Global aftermarket revenue was slightly lower versus a year ago.

"We delivered record third quarter revenue, driven by light vehicle top-line growth that continues to outpace industry production and double-digit increases in commercial truck and off-highway revenue. Our diversified portfolio continues to bolster organic growth across end-market applications, geographic regions, customers and platforms,” said Brian Kesseler, Tenneco CEO. “Looking forward, our entire organization remains focused on accelerating performance with revenue growth, margin improvement in both product lines and cash generation to support long-term shareholder value.”

EBIT and EBIT margin*

Third quarter EBIT (earnings before interest, taxes and noncontrolling interests) was $134 million, versus $150 million a year ago. Adjusted EBIT was $154 million compared with $157 million last year.

In the third quarter 2017, Tenneco EBIT as a percent of revenue was 5.9%, and adjusted EBIT as a percent of value-add revenue was 8.8%.

EBIT this quarter reflects the benefit from the ramp up of light vehicle programs, higher commercial truck and off- highway revenues and operational cost improvements. These positive drivers were largely countered by the timing of steel economics recoveries.

Third quarter EBIT margin

  Q3 2017   Q3 2016*
EBIT as a percent of revenue 5.9% 7.2%
EBIT as a percent of value-add revenue 7.6% 9.3%
 
Adjusted EBIT as a percent of revenue 6.8% 7.5%
Adjusted EBIT as a percent of value-add revenue 8.8% 9.7%

Cash

Cash generated by operations in the quarter was $53 million, after paying $45 million to resolve certain antitrust claims and incremental investments in working capital to support growth.

During the quarter, the company repurchased approximately 1.3 million shares of common stock for $71 million, and paid a dividend of 25-cents per share, for $14 million. Tenneco has repurchased 3.7 million shares of common stock for $210 million, and paid $40 million in dividends over the past 12 months.

Outlook

In the fourth quarter, Tenneco expects year-over-year revenue growth of approximately 7%, or 3% in constant currency, outpacing estimated light vehicle industry production growth** of 1%. The company expects continued strong double-digit growth in commercial truck and off-highway revenue, light vehicle revenue in line with industry production and a steady contribution from the global aftermarket.

Tenneco also expects fourth quarter value-add adjusted EBIT margin to be about even with prior year fourth quarter.*

For the full year, Tenneco expects revenue growth of approximately 7%, in constant currency 6%, outpacing estimated light vehicle industry production growth** of 2%.

Tenneco updated its anticipated tax rate, and now expects a tax rate between 26-27% for 2017, due to continued focus on global tax planning.

*Year-over-year earnings comparisons reflect revisions to prior period financial results for certain immaterial adjustments as described in Tenneco’s form 10K/A for the year ended December 31, 2016.

CONFERENCE CALL

The company will host a conference call on Friday, October 27, 2017 at 9:00 a.m. ET. The dial-in number is 866-807-9684 (domestic) or 412-317-5415 (international). The passcode is TENNECO. The call and accompanying slides will be available on the “Investors” section of the Tenneco web site at investors.tenneco.com. A recording of the call will be available one hour following completion of the call on October 27, 2017 through November 27, 2017. To access this recording, dial 877-344-7529 (domestic) or 412-317-0088 (international). The replay access code is 10112867. The purpose of the call is to discuss the company’s operations for the third fiscal quarter of 2017, as well as provide updated information regarding matters impacting the company’s outlook.

Tenneco is an $8.6 billion global manufacturing company with headquarters in Lake Forest, Illinois and approximately 31,000 employees worldwide. Tenneco is one of the world’s largest designers, manufacturers and marketers of clean air and ride performance products and systems for automotive and commercial vehicle original equipment markets and the aftermarket. Tenneco’s principal brand names are Monroe®, Walker®, XNOx® and Clevite®Elastomers.

Revenue estimates in this release are based on OE manufacturers’ programs that have been formally awarded to the company; programs where Tenneco is highly confident that it will be awarded business based on informal customer indications consistent with past practices; and Tenneco’s status as supplier for the existing program and its relationship with the customer. These revenue estimates are also based on anticipated vehicle production levels and pricing, including precious metals pricing and the impact of material cost changes. Unless otherwise indicated, our revenue estimate methodology does not attempt to forecast currency fluctuations, and accordingly, reflects constant currency. Certain elements of the restructuring and related expenses, legal settlements and other unusual charges we incur from time to time cannot be forecasted accurately. In this respect, we are not able to forecast EBIT (and the related margins) on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable efforts on account of these factors and the difficulty in predicting GAAP revenues (for purposes of a margin calculation) due to variability in production rates and volatility of precious metal pricing in the substrates that we pass through to our customers. For certain additional assumptions upon which these estimates are based, see the slides accompanying the October 27, 2017 webcast, which will be available on the financial section of the Tenneco website at investors.tenneco.com.

This press release contains forward-looking statements. Words such as “may,” “expects,” “anticipate,” “projects,” “will,” “outlook” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on the current expectations of the company (including its subsidiaries). Because these forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, the company's plans, actions and actual results could differ materially. Among the factors that could cause these plans, actions and results to differ materially from current expectations are:

(i) general economic, business and market conditions;

(ii) the company’s ability to source and procure needed materials, components and other products and services in accordance with customer demand and at competitive prices;

(iii) the cost and outcome of existing and any future claims, legal proceedings, or investigations, including, but not limited to, any of the foregoing arising in connection with the ongoing global antitrust investigation, product performance, product safety or intellectual property rights;

(iv) changes in capital availability or costs, including increases in the company's costs of borrowing (i.e., interest rate increases), the amount of the company's debt, the ability of the company to access capital markets at favorable rates, and the credit ratings of the company’s debt;

(v) changes in consumer demand, prices and the company’s ability to have our products included on top selling vehicles, including any shifts in consumer preferences to lower margin vehicles, for which we may or may not have supply arrangements;

(vi) changes in automotive and commercial vehicle manufacturers' production rates and their actual and forecasted requirements for the company's products such as the significant production cuts during recent years by automotive manufacturers in response to difficult economic conditions;

(vii) the overall highly competitive nature of the automobile and commercial vehicle parts industries, and any resultant inability to realize the sales represented by the company’s awarded book of business which is based on anticipated pricing and volumes over the life of the applicable program;

(viii) the loss of any of our large original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) customers (on whom we depend for a substantial portion of our revenues), or the loss of market shares by these customers if we are unable to achieve increased sales to other OEMs or any change in customer demand due to delays in the adoption or enforcement of worldwide emissions regulations;

(ix) the company's continued success in cost reduction and cash management programs and its ability to execute restructuring and other cost reduction plans, including our current cost reduction initiatives, and to realize anticipated benefits from these plans;

(x) risk inherent in operating a multi-national company, including economic, exchange rate and political conditions in the countries where we operate or sell our products, adverse changes in trade agreements, tariffs, immigration policies, political stability, and tax and other laws, and potential disruption of production and/or supply;

(xi) workforce factors such as strikes or labor interruptions;

(xii) increases in the costs of raw materials, including the company’s ability to successfully reduce the impact of any such cost increases through materials substitutions, cost reduction initiatives, customer recovery and other methods;

(xiii) the negative impact of fuel price volatility on transportation and logistics costs, raw material costs, discretionary purchases of vehicles or aftermarket products, and demand for off-highway equipment;

(xiv) the cyclical nature of the global vehicular industry, including the performance of the global aftermarket sector and longer product lives of automobile parts;

(xv) product warranty costs;

(xvi) the failure or breach of our information technology systems and the consequences that such failure or breach may have to our business;

(xvii) the company's ability to develop and profitably commercialize new products and technologies, and the acceptance of such new products and technologies by the company's customers and the market;

(xviii) changes by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other accounting regulatory bodies to authoritative generally accepted accounting principles or policies;

(xix) changes in accounting estimates and assumptions, including changes based on additional information;

(xx) the impact of the extensive, increasing and changing laws and regulations to which we are subject, including environmental laws and regulations, which may result in our incurrence of environmental liabilities in excess of the amount reserved;

(xxi) natural disasters, acts of war and/or terrorism and the impact of these occurrences or acts on economic, financial, industrial and social condition, including, without limitation, with respect to supply chains and customer demand in the countries where the company operates; and

(xxii) the timing and occurrence (or non-occurrence) of transactions and events which may be subject to circumstances beyond the control of the company and its subsidiaries.

The company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this press release. Additional information regarding these risk factors and uncertainties is detailed from time to time in the company's SEC filings, including but not limited to its annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2016.

(1) Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

(2) EBITDA including noncontrolling interests represents income before interest expense, income taxes, noncontrolling interests and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA including noncontrolling interests is not a calculation based upon generally accepted accounting principles. The amounts included in the EBITDA including noncontrolling interests calculation, however, are derived from amounts included in the historical statements of income data. In addition, EBITDA including noncontrolling interests should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) attributable to Tenneco Inc. or operating income as an indicator of the company's operating performance, or as an alternative to operating cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Tenneco has presented EBITDA including noncontrolling interests because it regularly reviews EBITDA including noncontrolling interests as a measure of the company's performance. In addition, Tenneco believes its investors utilize and analyze the company's EBITDA including noncontrolling interests for similar purposes. Tenneco also believes EBITDA including noncontrolling interests assists investors in comparing a company's performance on a consistent basis without regard to depreciation and amortization, which can vary significantly depending upon many factors. However, the EBITDA including noncontrolling interests measure presented may not always be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to differences in the components of the calculation.

(1) Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

(2) Tenneco presents the above reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP earnings measures primarily to reflect the results in a manner that allows a better understanding of the results of operational activities separate from the financial impact of decisions made for the long-term benefit of the company and other items impacting comparability between the periods. Adjustments similar to the ones reflected above have been recorded in earlier periods, and similar types of adjustments can reasonably be expected to be recorded in future periods. Using only the non-GAAP earnings measures to analyze earnings would have material limitations because its calculation is based on the subjective determinations of management regarding the nature and classification of events and circumstances that investors may find material. Management compensates for these limitations by utilizing both GAAP and non-GAAP earnings measures reflected above to understand and analyze the results of the business. The company believes investors find the non-GAAP information helpful in understanding the ongoing performance of operations separate from items that may have a disproportionate positive or negative impact on the company's financial results in any particular period.

(3) EBITDA including noncontrolling interests represents income before interest expense, income taxes, noncontrolling interests and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA including noncontrolling interests is not a calculation based upon generally accepted accounting principles. The amounts included in the EBITDA including noncontrolling interests calculation, however, are derived from amounts included in the historical statements of income data.

(1) Tenneco presents debt net of cash balances because management believes it is a useful measure of Tenneco's credit position and progress toward reducing leverage. The calculation is limited in that the company may not always be able to use cash to repay debt on a dollar-for-dollar basis.

(2) EBITDA including noncontrolling interests represents income before interest expense, income taxes, noncontrolling interests and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA including noncontrolling interests is not a calculation based upon generally accepted accounting principles. The amounts included in the EBITDA including noncontrolling interests calculation, however, are derived from amounts included in the historical statements of income data. In addition, EBITDA including noncontrolling interests should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) attributable to Tenneco Inc. or operating income as an indicator of the company's operating performance, or as an alternative to operating cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Tenneco has presented EBITDA including noncontrolling interests because it regularly reviews EBITDA including noncontrolling interests as a measure of the company's performance. In addition, Tenneco believes its investors utilize and analyze the company's EBITDA including noncontrolling interests for similar purposes. Tenneco also believes EBITDA including noncontrolling interests assists investors in comparing a company's performance on a consistent basis without regard to depreciation and amortization, which can vary significantly depending upon many factors. However, the EBITDA including noncontrolling interests measure presented may not always be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to differences in the components of the calculation.

(3) Adjusted EBITDA including noncontrolling interests is presented in order to reflect the results in a manner that allows a better understanding of operational activities separate from the financial impact of decisions made for the long term benefit of the company and other items impacting comparability between the periods. Similar adjustments to EBITDA including noncontrolling interests have been recorded in earlier periods, and similar types of adjustments can reasonably be expected to be recorded in future periods. The company believes investors find the non-GAAP information helpful in understanding the ongoing performance of operations separate from items that may have a disproportionate positive or negative impact on the company's financial results in any particular period.

(4) Tenneco presents the above reconciliation of the ratio of debt net of cash to LTM adjusted EBITDA including noncontrolling interests to show trends that investors may find useful in understanding the company's ability to service its debt. For purposes of this calculation, LTM adjusted EBITDA including noncontrolling interests is used as an indicator of the company's performance and debt net of cash is presented as an indicator of the company's credit position and progress toward reducing the company's financial leverage. This reconciliation is provided as supplemental information and not intended to replace the company's existing covenant ratios or any other financial measures that investors may find useful in describing the company's financial position. See notes (1), (2) and (3) for a description of the limitations of using debt net of cash, EBITDA including noncontrolling interests and adjusted EBITDA including noncontrolling interests.

(5) Charges related to Pension derisking and the acceleration of restricted stock vesting in accordance with the long-term incentive plan.

(6) Charges related to establish a reserve for settlement costs necessary to resolve the company’s antitrust matters globally.

(7) Warranty settlement with customer.

(8) Gain on sale of unconsolidated JV.

(1) Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

(2) Tenneco presents the above reconciliation of revenues in order to reflect value-add revenues separately from the effects of doing business in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Additionally, substrate sales include precious metals pricing, which may be volatile. Substrate sales occur when, at the direction of its OE customers, Tenneco purchases catalytic converters or components thereof from suppliers, uses them in its manufacturing processes and sells them as part of the completed system. While Tenneco original equipment customers assume the risk of this volatility, it impacts reported revenue. Excluding substrate sales removes this impact. Tenneco uses this information to analyze the trend in revenues before these factors. Tenneco believes investors find this information useful in understanding period to period comparisons in the company's revenues.
