Huntsman Corporation (NYSE: HUN) today reported third quarter 2021 results with revenues of $2,285 million, net income of $225 million, adjusted net income of $239 million and adjusted EBITDA of $371 million. 

Peter R. Huntsman, Chairman, CEO and President, commented:

"We are pleased with the strong earnings we delivered in the third quarter.  Despite pockets of disruption in our supply chain and cost inflation, we see strong pent-up demand across most of our businesses with favorable pricing dynamics. In addition, we are benefiting from cost reduction programs and synergies from the acquisitions we completed over the past 18 months. As indicated in our second quarter earnings call, we resumed share repurchases and we used free cash flow generated in the quarter to repurchase approximately $102 million of our stock during the quarter at an average price of $25.64 per share.

Since 2017, we have divested approximately 40% of our portfolio, including much of our commodity product lines, while adding numerous differentiated and higher margin products to the portfolio through bolton acquisitions. Our investment grade balance sheet remains strong and, together with our cash generation, provides us with the opportunity to continue to return capital to shareholders and further our portfolio transformation with additional bolton acquisitions when they make strategic and financial sense. In addition, we are investing in high return organic projects that will increase our total returns and improve margins over the next 24 to 36 months.

I also want to recognize the efforts of our corporate leadership team as well as our Board of Directors in connection with our arbitration award announced yesterday afternoon. This was a multi-year effort that could not have been won without their support, integrity and cohesion. 

We have a bright future, remain focused on improving the quality of our margins, and look forward to discussing the Company's strategy at our Investor Day on November 9th in New York City."

Segment Analysis for 3Q21 Compared to 3Q20

Polyurethanes

The increase in revenues in our Polyurethanes segment for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same period of 2020 was largely due to higher MDI average selling prices and slightly higher sales volumes. MDI average selling prices increased in all our regions. Sales volumes increased primarily due to stronger demand in relation to the ongoing recovery from the global economic slowdown, partially offset by the impact of Hurricane Ida at our Geismar, Louisiana facility that occurred in the third quarter of 2021. The increase in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to higher MDI margins resulting from higher MDI pricing and slightly higher sales volumes as well as stronger earnings from our PO/MTBE joint venture in China, partially offset by higher raw material costs. 

Performance Products

The increase in revenues in our Performance Products segment for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same period of 2020 was primarily due to higher average selling prices and higher sales volumes. Average selling prices increased primarily due to stronger demand in relation to the ongoing recovery from the global economic slowdown as well as in response to an increase in raw material costs. Sales volumes also increased primarily due to stronger demand. The increase in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to increased revenue and margins, partially offset by increased fixed costs.

Advanced Materials

The increase in revenues in our Advanced Materials segment for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020 was primarily due to higher sales volumes, higher average selling prices and the favorable net impact of the Gabriel Acquisition and the sale of the India-based DIY business. Excluding our recent acquisition and divestiture, sales volumes increased across all of our specialty markets, primarily in relation to the ongoing recovery from the global economic slowdown. Average selling prices increased largely in response to higher raw material costs. The increase in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to higher sales volumes and the benefit from our recent acquisition.

Textile Effects

The increase in revenues in our Textile Effects segment for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same period of 2020 was due to higher sales volumes and higher average selling prices. Sales volumes increased primarily due to increased demand resulting from the ongoing recovery from the global economic slowdown, particularly in the North Asia and Americas regions. Average selling prices increased primarily in response to higher freight and logistics costs. The increase in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to higher sales revenues, partially offset by higher fixed costs.

Corporate, LIFO and other

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, adjusted EBITDA from Corporate and other decreased by $11 million to a loss of $48 million from a loss of $37 million for the same period of 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the three months ended September 30, 2021, our adjusted free cash flow from continuing operations was $110 million as compared to $189 million in the prior year period.  As of September 30, 2021, we had approximately $2 billion of combined cash and unused borrowing capacity.

During the three months ended September 30, 2021, we spent $76 million on capital expenditures as compared to $54 million in the same period of 2020.  For 2021, we expect to spend approximately $350 million on capital expenditures.

Income Taxes

In the third quarter 2021, our adjusted effective tax rate was 15%.  For 2021, our adjusted effective tax rate is expected to be approximately 19% to 20%.  We continue to expect our forward adjusted effective tax rate will be approximately 22% to 24% 

Albemarle Litigation

On October 28, 2021, a panel of three former federal judges sitting as arbitrators found that Albemarle (and its predecessor Rockwood) had defrauded Huntsman in connection with the sale of its pigments business in 2014, breached the contract under which the business was sold, and awarded Huntsman in excess of $600 million for the fraud and breach, inclusive of punitive damages and statutory interest at 9% of which the Company expects to net in excess of $400 million after attorney's fees. The award is subject to confirmation and limited appeal in the New York state court.

We use adjusted EBITDA to measure the operating performance of our business and for planning and evaluating the performance of our business segments.  We provide adjusted net income because we feel it provides meaningful insight for the investment community into the performance of our business.  We believe that net income (loss) is the performance measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. ("GAAP") that is most directly comparable to adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss).  Additional information with respect to our use of each of these financial measures follows:

Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted income (loss) per share, as used herein, are not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA is computed by eliminating the following from net income (loss):  (a) net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, net of tax; (b) interest; (c) income taxes; (d) depreciation and amortization; (e) amortization of pension and postretirement actuarial losses (gains); (f) restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs (credits); and further adjusted for certain other items set forth in the reconciliation of net income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA in Table 4 above. 

Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted income (loss) per share are computed by eliminating the after tax impact of the following items from net income (loss): (a) net income attributable to noncontrolling interest; (b) amortization of pension and postretirement actuarial losses (gains); (c) restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs (credits); and further adjusted for certain other items set forth in the reconciliation of net income (loss) to adjusted net income (loss) in Table 4 above.  The income tax impacts, if any, of each adjusting item represent a ratable allocation of the total difference between the unadjusted tax expense and the total adjusted tax expense, computed without consideration of any adjusting items using a with and without approach.

We do not provide reconciliations for adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss) or adjusted diluted income (loss) per share on a forward-looking basis because we are unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and amount of certain items, such as, but not limited to, (a) business acquisition and integration expenses and purchase accounting adjustments, (b) merger costs, and (c) certain legal and other settlements and related costs. Each of such adjustments have not yet occurred, are out of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. 

(2)

Management internally uses free cash flow measure: (a) to evaluate our liquidity, (b) evaluate strategic investments, (c) plan stock buyback and dividend levels and (d) evaluate our ability to incur and service debt. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. Free cash flow is not a defined term under U.S. GAAP, and it should not be inferred that the entire free cash flow amount is available for discretionary expenditures.

(3)

During the third quarter 2019, we entered into an agreement to sell our Chemical Intermediates Businesses. Results from these businesses, including the associated gain on sale, was treated as discontinued operations until the completion of the sale on January 3, 2020.

(4)

We believe adjusted effective tax rate provides improved comparability between periods through the exclusion of certain items that management believes are not indicative of the businesses' operational profitability and that may obscure underlying business results and trends. In our view, effective tax rate is the performance measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP that is most directly comparable to adjusted effective tax rate.

The reconciliation of historical adjusted effective tax rate and effective tax rate is set forth in Table 4 above. We do not provide reconciliations for adjusted effective tax rate on a forward-looking basis because we are unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and amount of certain items, such as, but not limited to, (a) business acquisition and integration expenses, (b) merger costs, and (c) certain legal and other settlements and related costs. Each of such adjustments has not yet occurred, are out of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.

Net debt is a measure we use to monitor how much debt we have after taking into account our total cash. We use it as an indicator of our overall financial position, and calculate it by taking our total debt, including the current portion, and subtracting total cash. 

(6)

Adjusted free cash flow is defined as free cash flow, as described above, adjusted by excluding the taxes paid in connection with the sale of our Chemical Intermediates Businesses and the sale of our India-based DIY business.  We believe that adjusted free cash flow provides a useful comparison from period to period because it excludes the impact of cash taxes unrelated to our operations. Additionally, the proceeds received from the sale of our Chemical Intermediates Businesses and the sale of our India-based DIY business were classified as cash provided by investing activities and therefore was not factored into our free cash flow.  As result, we believe the adjustment to exclude the taxes paid associated with these transactions provides a meaningful measure of our free cash flow.
