Howmet Aerospace (NYSE:HWM), formerly Arconic Inc., today reported first quarter 2020 results, for which the Company reported revenues of $3.2 billion, down 9% year over year. Organic revenue1 was down 6% year over year due to disruptions in the aerospace, commercial transportation, and automotive markets driven by COVID-19 and 737 MAX production declines, somewhat offset by growth in defense and industrial.
Howmet Aerospace, formerly Arconic Inc., reported net income of $215 million, or $0.49 per share, in the first quarter 2020 versus net income of $187 million, or $0.39 per share, in the first quarter 2019. Net income excluding special items was $274 million, or $0.62 per share, in the first quarter 2020, versus $208 million, or $0.43 per share, in the first quarter 2019. Net income in the first quarter 2020 included $59 million of Special items, principally related to separation costs and charges associated with cost reduction initiatives.
First quarter 2020 operating income was $399 million versus operating income of $374 million in the first quarter 2019. Operating income excluding special items was $472 million, up 19% year over year, driven by net cost reductions, favorable aluminum and raw material costs, and growth in defense and industrial; partially offset by lower volumes in aerospace, commercial transportation, and automotive, including the impacts of COVID-19 and 737 MAX production declines. Operating income margin excluding special items was up approximately 350 basis points year over year to 14.7%.
Howmet Aerospace Executive Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer John Plant said, “The first quarter showed further performance progression both year over year and sequentially despite the disruptions during March due to COVID-19 both in Howmet Aerospace and Arconic Corporation plants as a result of customer shutdowns. The first wave of cost reductions has already been implemented as we focus on cost efficiency and cash conservation in light of the continuing turmoil in commercial aviation and aerospace. Other cash conservation actions are being implemented with capital expenditure reductions and temporary dividend suspension while the Company faces into these headwinds. Cash balances are healthy at more than two times the amount necessary to fund seasonal working capital changes. Pro forma cash balance, after the April 24 debt issuance and assuming completion of the related tender offers, would be approximately $1 billion. Our five-year revolver of $1.5 billion remains undrawn.”
Howmet Aerospace, formerly Arconic Inc., ended the quarter with a cash balance of $2.64 billion as of March 31, 2020. The Company is expected to have a cash balance of approximately $1 billion after the early debt redemption of $1.3 billion on April 6, 2020 and an allocation of $500 million to Arconic Corp in connection with the April 1, 2020 separation, plus expected remaining net proceeds of approximately $190 million after the $1.2 billion debt issuance on April 24, 2020 and the contemplated purchase of certain of its outstanding notes pursuant to related tender offers.
For the first quarter 2020, cash used for operations was $291 million; cash provided from financing activities was $1.1 billion, as the quarter reflected the impact of raising $1.2 billion of debt for Arconic Corp in connection with the separation; and cash provided from investing activities was $94 million. For the first quarter 2019, cash used for operations was $258 million; cash used for financing activities was $741 million, as the quarter reflected share repurchases totaling $700 million; and cash provided from investing activities was $42 million. Adjusted Free Cash Flow for the first quarter 2020 was negative $312 million versus negative $266 million in the first quarter 2019. Adjusted Free Cash Flow excluding separation costs for the first quarter 2020 was negative $246 million versus negative $265 million in the first quarter 2019.

| Net income excluding Special items and Diluted EPS excluding Special items are non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes that these measures are meaningful to investors because management reviews the operating results of the Company excluding the impacts of Restructuring and other charges, Discrete tax items, and Other special items (collectively, “Special items”). There can be no assurances that additional special items will not occur in future periods. To compensate for this limitation, management believes that it is appropriate to consider both Net income determined under GAAP as well as Net income excluding Special items. | ||

Discrete tax items for each period included the following: |

|

|

|
(2) |
Other special items for each period included the following: |
|
|
||
|
||
|
||
|

The tax impact on Special items is based on the applicable statutory rates whereby the difference between such rates and the Company’s consolidated estimated annual effective tax rate is itself a Special item. |

Organic revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes this measure is meaningful to investors as it presents revenue on a comparable basis for all periods presented due to the impact of the sale of the hard alloy extrusions plant in South Korea (divested in March 2020), sale of an aluminum rolling mill in Itapissuma, Brazil (divested in February 2020), the sale of the forgings businesses in Eger, Hungary (divested in December 2018) and the United Kingdom (divested in December 2019), the ramp-down of the Company’s North American packaging business at its Tennessee operations (completed in December 2018), and the impact of changes in aluminum prices and foreign currency fluctuations relative to the prior year periods. The revenue from a small manufacturing facility that was divested in the second quarter of 2019 and the small energy business that was divested in the third quarter of 2019 was not material and therefore is included in Organic revenue. |

| In the first quarter of 2020, the net cash funding in the sale of accounts receivable program was reduced from $350 to $298 in connection with the of the Arconic Inc. Separation Transaction. In the first quarter of 2020, the Company also sold $31 of customer receivables in exchange for cash, the proceeds from which are presented in changes in receivables within operating activities in the Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows. | |
| Adjusted free cash flow and Adjusted free cash flow, excluding costs associated with the Arconic Inc. Separation Transaction are non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes that these measures are meaningful to investors because management reviews cash flows generated from operations after taking into consideration capital expenditures (due to the fact that these expenditures are considered necessary to maintain and expand the Company’s asset base and are expected to generate future cash flows from operations), cash receipts from net sales of beneficial interest in sold receivables, as well as costs associated with the Arconic Inc. Separation Transaction. It is important to note that Adjusted free cash flow and Adjusted free cash flow, excluding costs associated with the Arconic Inc. Separation Transaction do not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures since other non-discretionary expenditures, such as mandatory debt service requirements, are not deducted from the measure. | |

Net debt is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes that this measure is meaningful to investors because management assesses the Company’s leverage position after factoring in cash that could be used to repay outstanding debt. |

Operating income excluding Special items and Operating income margin, excluding Special items are non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes that these measures are meaningful to investors because management reviews the operating results of the Company excluding the impacts of Special items. There can be no assurances that additional Special items will not occur in future periods. To compensate for this limitation, management believes that it is appropriate to consider both Operating income determined under GAAP as well as Operating income excluding Special items. |

| RONA is a non-GAAP financial measure. RONA is calculated as Net income excluding Special items divided by working capital and net PP&E. Management believes that this measure is meaningful to investors as RONA helps management and investors determine the percentage of net income the company is generating from its assets. This ratio tells how effectively and efficiently the company is using its assets to generate earnings. | ||

The Deferred purchase program relates to an arrangement to sell certain customer receivables to several financial institutions on a recurring basis. The Company is adding back the receivable for the purposes of the Working capital calculation. | |
