LAKE FOREST, Ill., Nov. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Pactiv Evergreen Inc. (“Pactiv Evergreen” or the “Company”) today reported results for the third quarter of 2024. Michael King, President and Chief Executive Officer of Pactiv Evergreen, said, “Our execution during the third quarter was solid and we made meaningful progress on our long-term strategy. We maintained strict cost discipline, optimized enterprise resources and overcame challenges at the Pine Bluff, Arkansas mill during its final quarter under our ownership. As we advance to the next phase of our transformational journey, we intend to leverage our heritage of product innovation and design to foster growth and assist our customers in achieving their sustainability goals.”
King continued, “In late September and early October, some of our teams and communities were significantly impacted by Hurricanes Helene and Milton. The safety and well-being of our team members remain our utmost priority. It’s been truly inspiring to witness our teams swiftly activate contingency plans in response to these severe weather events, showcasing their commitment to serving our customers and supporting the affected communities.”
Jon Baksht, Chief Financial Officer of Pactiv Evergreen, added, “Our third quarter results reflect our efforts to right size our operations and manage resources to align with the broader demand environment. Our team has done an excellent job reducing our cost to serve by implementing various initiatives to set Pactiv Evergreen up for success.

Third Quarter 2024 Results vs. Third Quarter 2023 Results
Net revenues in the third quarter of 2024 were $1,333 million compared to $1,379 million in the third quarter of 2023. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales volume, partially offset by favorable pricing in the Foodservice segment, mainly due to the pass through of higher material costs, and favorable product mix in the Food and Beverage Merchandising segment. Lower sales volume was mostly due to a focus on value over volume in the Food and Beverage Merchandising segment and the broader demand environment.
Net loss from continuing operations was $213 million, or $1.18 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2024 compared to net income of $28 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2023. The change was principally due to the $322 million impairment charge resulting from the divestiture of our Pine Bluff, Arkansas mill and our Waynesville, North Carolina extrusion facility (the “Mill Transaction”). The change also reflects a $60 million decrease in tax expense largely as a result of the aforementioned impairment charge.
Adjusted EBITDA1 was $214 million and Adjusted EPS1 was $0.36 in the third quarter of 2024 compared to $227 million and $0.32, respectively, in the third quarter of 2023. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA1 reflects higher manufacturing costs and lower sales volume, partially offset by lower incentive based compensation costs, favorable product mix in the Food and Beverage Merchandising segment and favorable pricing, net of material costs passed through, in the Foodservice segment. The increase in Adjusted EPS1 is primarily due to impacts of the aforementioned Mill Transaction.

Outlook
“We have made significant progress on our strategy this year, and as we look ahead to 2025, we believe we have established a solid foundation for the next leg of our transformational journey. We are dedicated to carefully overseeing our operations, preserving a strong balance sheet and driving growth, which includes innovation and identifying opportunities to extend our reach beyond the conventional channels we currently serve,” said Mr. King. “The Company is updating its existing guidance range for full year 2024 Adjusted EBITDA1 to a range of $800 million to $810 million in light of the performance of the operations divested in the Mill Transaction prior to closing,” he added.
The Company has not reconciled the non-GAAP measure Adjusted EBITDA1 to the GAAP measure net income (loss) on a forward-looking basis in this release because the Company does not provide guidance for certain of the reconciling items on a consistent basis, including but not limited to items relating to restructuring, asset impairment and other related charges, depreciation and amortization expense, net interest expense and income taxes, which would be required to include a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA1 to GAAP net income (loss), as the Company is unable to quantify these amounts without unreasonable efforts.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company uses the following financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”): Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, Adjusted EPS from continuing operations, Free Cash Flow and Net Debt.
The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations as net income (loss) 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 or losses on the sale of businesses and noncurrent assets, non-cash pension income or expense, unrealized gains or losses on derivatives, foreign exchange gains or losses on cash and gains or losses on certain legal settlements.
The Company defines Adjusted EPS from continuing operations as diluted (loss) earnings per share from continuing operations (“EPS”) calculated in accordance with GAAP adjusted for the after-tax effect of 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, unrealized gains or losses on derivatives, foreign exchange losses on cash, gains or losses on certain legal settlements and gains or losses on debt extinguishments.
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 has provided herein a reconciliation of (i) net income (loss) from continuing operations to Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, (ii) diluted (loss) EPS from continuing operations to Adjusted EPS from continuing operations, (iii) net cash provided by operating activities to Free Cash Flow and (iv) total debt to Net Debt, in each case representing the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
The Company presents Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations to assist in comparing performance from period to period and as a measure of operational performance. It is 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 and Chief Operating Decision Maker, who is the President and Chief Executive Officer, use the Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations of each reportable segment to evaluate its respective operating performance. Accordingly, the Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations 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. Like Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, management believes Adjusted EPS from continuing operations is useful to investors, analysts and others to facilitate 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 in comparing liquidity from period to period and to provide a more comprehensive view of the Company’s core operations and ability to generate cash flow, and also, as with Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, 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 as a supplemental measure 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 this measure 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 from continuing operations, Adjusted EPS from continuing operations and other metrics derived from them, 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 from continuing operations and Adjusted EPS from continuing operations and you should not infer from our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EPS from continuing operations that our future results will not be affected by these expenses or any unusual or non-recurring items.
