O-I GLASS REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2024 RESULTS

Revising Guidance to Account for Softer Consumer Consumption

“As expected, our first quarter net earnings per share (diluted) were down from historically high performance in the prior year quarter. Lower results primarily reflected the current market downturn that has impacted shipment levels due to softer consumer consumption and inventory destocking across the value chain. While recent consumption trends have been softer than originally anticipated, we have noted a gradual improvement in our year-over-year glass shipment trends since the fourth quarter of 2023. We remain confident in the long-term favorable trajectory for glass packaging demand and strong earnings potential as markets recover over time. Furthermore, we are excited for the start-up of our first MAGMA greenfield plant this summer, as we expect this new innovative technology will create a significant competitive advantage for our company well into the future,” said Andres Lopez, O-I Glass CEO.
Net sales were $1.6 billion in the first quarter of 2024 compared to $1.8 billion in the prior year reflecting slightly lower average selling prices and a 12.5 percent decline in sales volume (in tons). These headwinds were partially offset by favorable foreign currency translation.
Earnings before income taxes was $117 million in the first quarter of 2024 which was down from $270 million in the prior year period, primarily due to lower segment operating profit and higher interest expense which were partially offset by lower retained corporate and other costs.
Segment operating profit was $235 million in the first quarter compared to $398 million in the same period of 2023.
· | Americas: Segment operating profit in the Americas was $102 million compared to $176 million in the prior year period and reflected slightly lower net price as well as the impact of 15 percent lower sales volume (in tons). Operating costs increased due to lower production volumes driven by temporary production curtailments given softer demand which was partially offset by margin expansion initiative benefits. Segment operating profit also benefited $5 million from favorable foreign currency translation. |
· | Europe: Segment operating profit in Europe was $133 million compared to $222 million in the prior year period and reflected lower net price as well as the impact of 10 percent lower sales volume (in tons). Operating costs were also higher due to lower production volumes driven by temporary production curtailments given softer demand, lower joint venture earnings and non-recurrence of energy subsidies received in the prior year. These headwinds were partially offset by favorable margin expansion initiative benefits. Segment operating profit was impacted $1 million from unfavorable foreign currency translation. |
Retained corporate and other costs were $40 million, down from $60 million in the first quarter of 2023 due to lower corporate spending and management incentives. Net interest expense totaled $78 million which was up from $68 million in the prior year given higher interest rates. The company’s effective tax rate approximated 35 percent in the first quarter of 2024 compared to about 22 percent in the first quarter of 2023 reflecting a shift in regional earnings mix.
Net earnings attributable to the company was $0.45 per share (diluted) in the first quarter of 2024 compared to earnings of $1.29 per share (diluted) in the prior year period.
2024 Outlook
FY24 GUIDANCE | ||||
CURRENT | Prior | |||
Sales Volume Growth (in Tons) | Flat to ▲LSD | ▲LSD / MSD | ||
Adjusted Earnings Per Share (EPS) | $1.50 - $2.00 | $2.25 - $2.65 | ||
Free Cash Flow ($M) | $100 - $150 | $150 - $200 |
O-I has adjusted its full-year guidance for sales volume growth, adjusted earnings per share, and free cash flow.
The company now expects sales volume (in tons) will be flat-to-up low single digits for full year 2024 which compares to the company’s original outlook of low-to-mid single digit growth. A lower growth rate reflects a slower than anticipated rate of consumer consumption recovery following the current market downturn as well as a longer duration of inventory destocking in key end-use categories including wine and spirits. Likewise, the company will incur additional temporary production curtailment costs to balance supply with lower demand, which will be partially mitigated by at least $175 million of margin expansion initiative benefits compared to the original target of more than $150 million. The updated outlook also reflects unfavorable foreign currency translation, higher interest expense and a higher tax rate compared to original guidance.
Management now anticipates full year adjusted earnings will range between $1.50 and $2.00 per share (diluted) and free cash flow should be between $100 and $150 million.
While the pace of consumer recovery is slower than originally anticipated, the company remains confident in the long-term positive trajectory of glass packaging demand, continuing to benefit from mega trends such as premiumization, sustainability, and health and wellness, as well as strong favorable earnings potential as markets recover over time.
Guidance primarily reflects the company’s current view on sales and production volume, mix and working capital trends. O-I’s adjusted earnings outlook assumes foreign currency rates as of April 30, 2024, and a full-year adjusted effective tax rate of approximately 30 to 33 percent compared to the prior outlook of 25 to 27 percent. The adjusted earnings and free cash flow guidance ranges may not fully reflect uncertainty in macroeconomic conditions, currency rates, energy and raw materials costs, supply chain disruptions and labor challenges, among other factors.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, which are measures of its historical or future financial performance that are not calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, within the meaning of applicable SEC rules. Management believes that its presentation and use of certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted earnings, adjusted earnings per share, free cash flow, segment operating profit, segment operating profit margin and adjusted effective tax rate provide relevant and useful supplemental financial information that is widely used by analysts and investors, as well as by management in assessing both consolidated and business unit performance. These non-GAAP measures are reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP measures and should be considered supplemental in nature and should not be considered in isolation or be construed as being more important than comparable GAAP measures.
Adjusted earnings relates to net earnings attributable to the company, exclusive of items management considers not representative of ongoing operations and other adjustments because such items are not reflective of the company’s principal business activity, which is glass container production. Adjusted earnings are divided by weighted average shares outstanding (diluted) to derive adjusted earnings per share. Segment operating profit relates to earnings before interest expense, net, and before income taxes and is also exclusive of items management considers not representative of ongoing operations as well as certain retained corporate costs and other adjustments. Segment operating profit margin is calculated as segment operating profit divided by segment net sales. Adjusted effective tax rate relates to provision for income taxes, exclusive of items management considers not representative of ongoing operations and other adjustments divided by earnings before income taxes, exclusive of items management considers not representative of ongoing operations and other adjustments. Management uses adjusted earnings, adjusted earnings per share, segment operating profit, segment operating profit margin and adjusted effective tax rate to evaluate its period-over-period operating performance because it believes these provide useful supplemental measures of the results of operations of its principal business activity by excluding items that are not reflective of such operations. The above non-GAAP financial measures may be useful to investors in evaluating the underlying operating performance of the company’s business as these measures eliminate items that are not reflective of its principal business activity.
Further, free cash flow relates to cash provided by operating activities plus cash payments to the Paddock 524(g) trust and related expenses less cash payments for property, plant, and equipment. Management has historically used free cash flow to evaluate its period-over-period cash generation performance because it believes these have provided useful supplemental measures related to its principal business activity. It should not be inferred that the entire free cash flow amount is available for discretionary expenditures, since the company has mandatory debt service requirements and other non-discretionary expenditures that are not deducted from these measures. Management uses non-GAAP information principally for internal reporting, forecasting, budgeting and calculating compensation payments.
The company routinely posts important information on its website – www.o-i.com/investors.

(a) | Segment operating profit consists of consolidated earnings before interest expense, net, and before income taxes and excludes amounts related to certain items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations as well as certain retained corporate costs and other adjustments. |
The Company presents information on segment operating profit because management believes that it provides investors with a measure of operating performance separate from the level of indebtedness or other related costs of capital. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to segment operating profit is earnings before income taxes. The Company presents segment operating profit because management uses the measure, in combination with net sales and selected cash flow information, to evaluate performance and to allocate resources. | |
(b) | Segment operating profit margin is segment operating profit divided by segment net sales. |

Unaudited
The Company is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of its forward-looking non-GAAP measure, adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share, for the year ending December 31, 2024 to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, Net earnings attributable to the Company, because management cannot reliably predict all of the necessary components of this GAAP financial measure without unreasonable efforts. Net earnings attributable to the Company includes several significant items, such as restructuring charges, asset impairment charges, charges for the write-off of finance fees, and the income tax effect on such items. The decisions and events that typically lead to the recognition of these and other similar items are complex and inherently unpredictable, and the amount recognized for each item can vary significantly. Accordingly, the Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share to earnings attributable to the Company or address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to the Company's future financial results.
