LUXEMBOURG--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Orion Engineered Carbons S.A. (“Orion” or the “Company”) (NYSE: OEC), a
worldwide supplier of specialty and high-performance carbon black, today
announced results for its second quarter of 2017. “We continue to
execute very well in both our Specialty and Rubber Carbon Black
businesses. Our end markets have maintained a reasonable amount of
stability and are increasingly signaling growth in our major segments.
Accordingly, I am pleased to report near-record Adjusted EBITDA of €58.4
million for our second quarter of 2017,” said Jack Clem, Orion’s Chief
Executive Officer. “I am especially pleased with the performance of our
rubber business, which benefited from stable demand, an improving
portfolio of higher margin technical grades and the improvements in cost
as a result of our internal initiatives, including the shuttering of
capacity in France. Adjusted EBITDA for rubber grew by €4.5 million or
23.6% in the period, more than offsetting the margin pressure we
experienced in our specialty business, which also had a very good
quarter but was up against the tough comparable of an exceptionally
strong and record breaking second quarter last year.”
“Our cash flow remains robust,” continued Mr. Clem. “Cash flow from
operations in the quarter was over €43 million, well ahead of our
ongoing capex needs, dividend coverage and interest expenses. Moreover,
we reduced our ongoing interest costs in the quarter following the
repricing of our term loans with significantly lower rates locked in for
the next several years. Finally, as planned, we further deleveraged our
balance sheet in the quarter, bringing our net debt/LTM Adjusted EBITDA
ratio down to an all-time low of 2.37x.”

Second Quarter 2017 Overview
Volumes decreased by 25.8 kmt resulting in total volume of 266.6 kmt in
the second quarter of 2017 compared to 292.4 kmt in the second quarter
of 2016. This 8.8% decrease reflected stronger volumes in the Specialty
Carbon Black business, offset by lower Rubber Carbon Black volumes in
part as a result of the closure of our manufacturing facility in France,
a prolonged maintenance turnaround on one of our facilities in the US
and the earlier referenced conversion of rubber capacity in Korea to
specialty production.
While volumes in the quarter declined, revenue increased by €51.4
million, or 20.8%, to €299.3 million in the second quarter of 2017 from
€247.9 million in the second quarter of 2016, reflecting mainly the pass
through of higher feedstock costs to customers with agreements that link
price to the cost of feedstock. Improvements in price and mix were
offset by lower volumes.
Contribution Margin decreased by €3.5 million, or 2.9%, to €117.9
million in the second quarter of 2017 from €121.4 million in the second
quarter of 2016, reflecting the impact of lower volumes and the
continued impact of negative feedstock differentials among other factors.
Gross Profit decreased by €2.6 million to €84.3 million in the second
quarter 2017 from €86.9 million in the second quarter of 2016, in line
with the development of the contribution margin.
Adjusted EBITDA increased by €0.7 million to €58.4 million in the second
quarter of 2017, or 1.1%, from €57.7 million in the second quarter of
2016, reflecting the improvements in our cost structure.

Volumes for the Specialty Carbon Black business increased by 2.9% to
65.3 kmt in the second quarter of 2017 from 63.4 kmt in the second
quarter of 2016, mainly as a result of strong growth in Europe and the
extension of sales of Specialty products from our facility in Qingdao,
China ("OECQ"). The Specialty business continues to benefit from
increased global demand and further penetration of markets, with all
segments showing strength.
Revenue of the business increased by €13.1 million, or 13.3%, to €111.1
million in the second quarter of 2017 from €98.0 million in the second
quarter of 2016, which reflects the pass through of higher feedstock
costs, volume growth, and a stronger mix.
Gross Profit decreased by €3.8 million, or 7.9%, to €45.0 million in the
second quarter of 2017 from €48.8 million in the second quarter of 2016,
reflecting higher raw material costs partially offset by stronger
volumes and a favorable product mix. Compared to the first quarter of
2017 Gross Profit increased by €1.3 million or 3%.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased by 10.0% to €34.8 million in the second
quarter of 2017 from €38.7 million in the second quarter of 2016,
reflecting the development of Gross Profit. Adjusted EBITDA margin was
31.3% in the second quarter of 2017 compared to 39.4% in the second
quarter of 2016, which primarily reflects higher revenues associated
with the pass through of increased feedstock costs as well as Adjusted
EBITDA development.

Volumes for the Rubber Carbon Black business decreased by 12.1% to 201.3
kmt in the second quarter of 2017 from 229.0 kmt in the second quarter
of 2016, largely as a result of the closure of the production facility
in France, an extended maintenance period at one of our US facilities
and the allocation of rubber capacity to specialty in Asia.
Revenue increased by €38.4 million, or 25.6%, to €188.3 million in the
second quarter of 2017 from €149.9 million in the second quarter of
2016, despite the volume decline as a result of the pass through of
higher feedstock costs to customers on indexed price agreements,
favorable foreign exchange impacts and some pricing improvements.
Gross profit increased by €1.2 million, or 3.2%, to €39.3 million in the
second quarter of 2017 from €38.1 million in the second quarter of 2016
as a result of improved margins and operational cost efficiency.
Adjusted EBITDA increased by €4.5 million, or 23.6% to €23.6 million in
the second quarter of 2017 from €19.1 million in the second quarter of
2016, reflecting the development of Gross Profit and improvement in
selling, general & administration costs.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
As of June 30, 2017, the company had net cash of €44.3 million
(comprising cash and equivalents of €48.5 million less liabilities to
local banks of €4.2 million) which was essentially unchanged from the
end of the prior quarter.
The Company’s non-current indebtedness as of June 30, 2017 was €571.8
million composed of the non-current portion of term loan liabilities
(€579.2 million less transaction costs of €9.1 million and €1.6 million
long term debt from financial derivatives). Net indebtedness comprising
the non-current portion of term loan liabilities of €579.2 million, €7.1
million current portion of term loan liabilities, less net cash of €44.3
million, was €542.0 million. This represents a 2.37 times LTM Adjusted
EBITDA multiple down from 2.46 times in the previous quarter and down
from 2.50 times at the end of 2016.
Cash inflows from operating activities in the second quarter of 2017
amounted to €43.6 million, primarily consisting of a consolidated profit
for the period of €16.8 million, adjusted for depreciation and
amortization of €21.8 million and the exclusion of finance costs, net of
€9.9 million affecting net income. Net working capital increased
slightly as a result of higher oil prices during the first half of the
year and totaled €200.1 million as of June 30, 2017 as compared to
€181.9 million as of December 31, 2016.
Cash outflows from investing activities in the second quarter of 2017
amounted to €17.1 million composed of capital expenditures for
improvements primarily in the manufacturing network throughout the
production system.
Cash outflows for financing activities in the second quarter of 2017
amounted to €21.1 million, consisting of a dividend payment of €10.0
million, regular interest payments of €6.5 million and regular debt
repayment of €1.8 million as well as cash outflow from short term
financing activities.
2017 Full Year Outlook
“As we enter the year's second half, we continue to see relatively
stable to improving supply and demand dynamics in our end markets for
both the rubber and specialty businesses. There has been some recent
volatility in oil prices and a strengthening of the euro against the
dollar. As a result, we remain a bit cautious about the impacts on our
business by these kinds of moves,” stated Mr. Clem. “Taking all of this
into account, we are maintaining our outlook for full year Adjusted
EBITDA of between €220 million and €240 million for 2017, with a
mid-point assumption based on volume growth along the current
trajectory, and that oil prices, exchange rates and feedstock impacts
will be consistent with that seen during the second quarter of 2017. We
expect our cash generation to remain robust and more than sufficient to
support our capital program and dividend policy.”
Other guidance metrics for 2017, also unchanged, include shares
outstanding of 59.3 million, an underlying tax rate of about 35% on
pre-tax income, and capital expenditures reflecting an operating run
rate consistent with the past of approximately €60 million but depending
on the timing of certain expenditures potentially rising to over €80
million due to the expenditures associated with the consolidation of the
Company’s plants in Korea. Depreciation is estimated to be approximately
€60 million, and amortization is estimated to be approximately €20
million (including amortization of acquired intangibles of about €13
million) in 2017.

Forward Looking Statements
This document contains certain forward-looking statements with respect
to our financial condition, results of operations and business,
including those in the “2017 Outlook” and “Quarterly Business Results”
sections above. These statements constitute forward-looking statements
within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are statements of future
expectations that are based on management’s current expectations and
assumptions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that
could cause actual results, performance or events to differ materially
from those expressed or implied in these statements. Forward-looking
statements include, among others, statements concerning the potential
exposure to market risks, statements expressing management’s
expectations, beliefs, estimates, forecasts, projections and assumptions
and statements that are not limited to statements of historical or
present facts or conditions. Some of these statements can be identified
by terms and phrases such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “intend,”
“estimate,” “expect,” “continue,” “could,” “should,” “may,” “plan,”
“project,” “predict” and similar expressions. Factors that could cause
our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied
in such forward-looking statements include those factors detailed under
the captions “Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk
Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December
31, 2016 and in Note 10 to our audited consolidated financial statements
regarding contingent liabilities, including litigation. You should not
place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Each forward-looking
statement speaks only as of the date of the particular statement. New
risk factors and uncertainties emerge from time to time and it is not
possible for our management to predict all risk factors and
uncertainties, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our
business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors,
may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in
any forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly
update or revise any forward-looking statement - including those in the
“2017 Outlook” and “Quarterly Business Results” sections above - as a
result of new information, future events or other information, other
than as required by applicable law.
Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Financial Measures
In this release we refer to Adjusted EBITDA, Contribution Margin and
Adjusted EPS, which are financial measures that have not been prepared
in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued
by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”) or the
accounting standards of any other jurisdiction and may not be comparable
to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Adjusted EBITDA
is defined as operating result (EBIT) before depreciation and
amortization, adjusted for acquisition related expenses, restructuring
expenses, consulting fees related to group strategy, share of profit or
loss of joint venture and certain other items. Adjusted EBITDA is used
by our management to evaluate our operating performance and make
decisions regarding allocation of capital because it excludes the
effects of certain items that have less bearing on the performance of
our underlying core business. Our use of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations
as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as
a substitute for analysis of our financial results as reported under
IFRS. Some of these limitations are: (a) although Adjusted EBITDA
excludes the impact of depreciation and amortization, the assets being
depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future and thus
the cost of replacing assets or acquiring new assets, which will affect
our operating results over time, is not reflected; (b) Adjusted EBITDA
does not reflect interest or certain other costs that we will continue
to incur over time and will adversely affect our profit or loss, which
is the ultimate measure of our financial performance and (c) other
companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted
EBITDA or similarly titled measures differently. Because of these and
other limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA alongside our
other IFRS-based financial performance measures, such as consolidated
profit or loss for the period.
Contribution Margin is calculated by subtracting variable costs (such as
raw materials, packaging, utilities and distribution costs) from our
revenue. We believe that Contribution Margin and Contribution Margin per
Metric Ton are useful because we see these measures as indicating the
portion of revenue that is not consumed by such variable costs and
therefore contributes to the coverage of all other costs and profits.
Adjusted EPS is defined as profit or loss for the period adjusted for
acquisition related expenses, restructuring expenses, consulting fees
related to group strategy, certain other items (such as amortization
expenses related to intangible assets acquired from our predecessor and
foreign currency revaluation impacts) and assumed taxes, divided by the
weighted number of shares outstanding. Adjusted EPS provides guidance
with respect to our underlying business performance without regard to
the effects of (a) foreign currency fluctuations, (b) the amortization
of intangible assets which other companies may record as goodwill having
an indefinite lifetime and thus no amortization and (c) our start-up and
initial public offering costs. Other companies may use a similarly
titled financial measure that is calculated differently from the way we
calculate Adjusted EPS.

1) Based upon weighted number of shares outstanding, which
was 59,320k for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and for the
three months ended June 30, 2016 and 59,386k for the six months ended
June 30, 2016.
Forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS included in this
release are not reconcilable to their respective most directly
comparable IFRS measure without unreasonable efforts, because we are not
able to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate amount or nature
of adjustment items in the remainder of the fiscal year. These items are
uncertain, depend on many factors and could have a material impact on
our IFRS reported results for the guidance period.
