- Sales increased 8.6% on 1.4% organic growth, 3.0% acquisitions and 4.2% positive currency translation

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / May 10, 2023 / CCL Industries Inc. ("the Company"), a world leader in specialty label, security and packaging solutions for global corporations, government institutions, small businesses and consumers, today reported 2023 first quarter results.
Sales for the first quarter of 2023 increased 8.6% to $1,652.1 million, compared to $1,521.7 million for the first quarter of 2022, with organic growth of 1.4%, acquisition-related growth of 3.0% and 4.2% positive impact from foreign currency translation.
Operating income(1) for the first quarter of 2023 increased 12.7% to $257.7 million compared to $228.6 million for the comparable quarter of 2022. Operating income(1) improved 7.5%, excluding currency translation.
The Company recorded an expense of $0.8 million for restructuring and other items in the first quarter of 2023 compared to an expense of $1.8 million for the first quarter of 2022. Restructuring and other items for the 2023 first quarter were mainly comprised of severance costs associated with the CCL Design electronics business.
Tax expense for the first quarter of 2023 was $54.3 million compared to $47.5 million in the prior year period. The effective tax rate for the 2023 first quarter was 24.9% compared to 24.4% for the 2022 first quarter, reflecting a higher portion of taxable income earned in higher taxed jurisdictions.
Net earnings increased 10.8% to $166.4 million for the 2023 first quarter compared to $150.2 million for the 2022 first quarter. Basic and adjusted basic earnings per Class B share(3) were $0.94 for the 2023 first quarter, compared to basic and adjusted basic earnings per Class B share(3) of $0.84 and $0.85, respectively, in the prior year first quarter.
Geoffrey T. Martin, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "I am pleased to report first quarter results ahead of internal expectations. The CCL Segment and Checkpoint both posted organic sales growth and solid improvements in profitability while Avery had an outstanding quarter. Innovia results improved sequentially compared to the fourth quarter of 2022 but were below prior year first quarter. This all summed to a 10.6% increase in adjusted basic earnings to $0.94 per Class B share(3), compared to the first quarter of 2022."
Mr. Martin continued, "The CCL Segment delivered 2.7% organic sales growth and modest profitability gains as a number of end markets slowed. Home & Personal Care results benefitted from comparatively stronger label demand internationally and excellent performance at CCL Container, more than offset by softer markets for labels and tubes in the United States, albeit versus a strong prior year. Healthcare sales and profitability improved dramatically globally, only partly offset by mixed results in AgChem with soft lawn and garden markets in North America and start-up costs for a new plant in Germany. Food & Beverage recorded good organic sales growth with modest profitability gains, as cost inflation passed its peak and price increases took hold. CCL Design automotive posted strong sales gains and improved profitability in all markets but could not offset weak global demand in electronics, compounded in China by COVID-related challenges early in the first quarter. After a slow fourth quarter of 2022, CCL Secure rebounded with strong sales and profitability gains. Earnings from our label joint ventures declined modestly on foreign exchange challenges. Avery delivered very strong 14.5% organic sales growth augmented by solid contributions from the recent Adelbras and Floramedia acquisitions. Distribution channel inventory rebuild following a destocking period in the second half of 2022 drove better results for legacy printable media and organization products while direct-to-consumer growth was robust, especially in badges and ID cards. Checkpoint's strong results in MAS products more than offset slower end market demand for apparel labels; nevertheless, RFID volumes continued to grow. Solid sequential profit gains at Innovia, especially in the Americas, could not offset the impact of very weak volume conditions in the label materials industry in North America and Europe. However, resin indices, energy and transportation costs stabilized and eased comparatively."
Mr. Martin noted, "Foreign currency translation had a positive $0.05 impact on earnings per Class B share for the first quarter of 2023. At today's Canadian dollar exchange rates, currency translation would be a tailwind, if sustained, for the second quarter of 2023."
Mr. Martin concluded, "The Company finished the quarter with a strong balance sheet and robust liquidity. The Company's consolidated leverage ratio(5) was 1.25 times Adjusted EBITDA(2) with $787.1 million cash-on-hand and US$0.9 billion undrawn capacity on its syndicated revolving credit facility, leaving the Company well placed to fund global expansion. The Board of Directors approved a dividend of $0.265 per Class B non-voting share and $0.2625 per Class A voting share to shareholders of record as of June 16, 2023, and payable June 30, 2023."

Non-IFRS Measures
(1) Operating income and operating income margin are key non-IFRS financial measures used to assist in understanding the profitability of the Company's business units. Operating income is defined as earnings before corporate expenses, net finance cost, goodwill impairment loss, earnings in equity accounted investments, restructuring and other items, and taxes. Operating income margin, also known as return on sales, is defined as operating income over sales.
(2) Adjusted EBITDA is a critical non-IFRS financial measure used extensively in the packaging industry and other industries to assist in understanding and measuring operating results. Adjusted EBITDA is also considered as a proxy for cash flow and a facilitator for business valuations. This non-IFRS financial measure is defined as earnings before net finance cost, taxes, depreciation and amortization, goodwill impairment loss, non-cash acquisition accounting adjustments to inventory, earnings in equity accounted investments and restructuring and other items. Calculations are provided below to reconcile operating income to Adjusted EBITDA. The Company believes that this is an important measure as it allows management to assess the ongoing business without the impact of net finance cost, depreciation and amortization and income tax expenses, as well as non-operating factors and one-time items. As a proxy for cash flow, it is intended to indicate the Company's ability to incur or service debt and to invest in property, plant and equipment, and it allows management to compare the business to those of the Company's peers and competitors who may have different capital or organizational structures. Adjusted EBITDA is tracked by financial analysts and investors to evaluate financial performance and is a key metric in business valuations. It is considered an important measure by lenders to the Company and is included in the financial covenants included in the senior notes and bank lines of credit.

(3) Adjusted basic earnings per Class B share is an important non-IFRS measure to assist in understanding the ongoing earnings performance of the Company excluding items of a one-time or non-recurring nature. It is not considered a substitute for basic net earnings per Class B share but it does provide additional insight into the ongoing financial results of the Company. This non-IFRS financial measure is defined as basic net earnings per Class B share excluding gains on business dispositions, goodwill impairment loss, non-cash acquisition accounting adjustments to inventory, restructuring and other items, and tax adjustments.

(4) Free cash flow from operations is a measure indicating the relative amount of cash generated by the Company during the year and available to fund dividends, debt repayments and acquisitions. It is calculated as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures, net of proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment.
The following table reconciles the measure of free cash flow from operations to IFRS measures reported in the consolidated condensed interim statements of cash flows for the period ended as indicated.
