WILMINGTON, Del., July 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The Chemours Company (Chemours) (NYSE: CC), a global chemistry company with leading market positions in Fluoroproducts, Chemical Solutions and Titanium Technologies, today announced its financial results for the second quarter 2020.
Second Quarter 2020 Highlights
- Net Sales of $1.1 billion
- Net Income of $24 million, with EPS of $0.15
- Adjusted Net Income of $30 million, with Adjusted EPS of $0.18
- Adjusted EBITDA of $166 million
- Free Cash Flow of $50 million, a $167 million improvement from prior year
- On July 29th, the company's board of directors approved a Q3 dividend of $0.25 per share, consistent with the prior quarter
Update on COVID-19 Response Plan
- All Chemours sites remain operational
- Maintaining health and safety measures across our sites
- On target to reduce FY 2020 costs by $160 million
- On target to reduce FY 2020 CAPEX by ~$125 million, from approx. $400 million to approx. $275 million
- Preserving strong balance sheet, ample liquidity of $1.4 billion with no near-term senior debt maturities
"Our results in the second quarter reflect disciplined execution of our cash generation strategy in spite of the significant impact of COVID-19 on global demand," said Chemours President and CEO Mark Vergnano. "We remain focused on both our employees' safety and fully supporting our customers' needs. At the same time, the team has reduced costs and improved operating efficiency through this difficult period. These efforts combined with our strong liquidity position give us tremendous confidence that we will be in a strong position to respond when market conditions improve."
Second quarter 2020 net sales were $1.1 billion in comparison to $1.4 billion in the prior-year second quarter. Results were driven primarily by lower volume across all segments. Second quarter net income was $24 million, resulting in EPS of $0.15. Adjusted Net Income was $30 million, resulting in Adjusted EPS of $0.18, down $0.54 from the prior year, inclusive of a $13 million charge related to our Fayetteville facility. Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter 2020 was $166 million in comparison to $283 million in the previous year second quarter, a result of lower volumes and prices, idle production charges, lower fixed cost absorption and limited F-Gas quota sales, partially offset by stronger operational performance and lower cost, driven by FY2020 cost reduction plan in response to COVID-19, on year-over-year basis.
Fluoroproducts
Fluoroproducts segment net sales in the second quarter were $523 million in comparison to $711 million in the prior year. Volume and price declined 22 percent and 3 percent, respectively, on a year-over-year basis. Lower volumes were primarily driven by the impact of COVID-19 on global automotive OEMs and industrial end-markets. Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $97 million decreased 46 percent versus the prior-year quarter, negatively impacted by higher costs driven by idle production and minimal F-gas quota sales due to illegal imports of HFC refrigerants into the EU. This was partially offset by cost reductions across the business and improved operational performance.
Chemical Solutions
Chemical Solutions segment net sales were $82 million, a 37 percent decrease versus the prior-year second quarter. Volumes were down 16 percent year-over-year primarily driven by COVID-19 related mine closures. Portfolio was down 18 percent year-over-year primarily driven by the Methylamines and Methylamides business divestiture in the fourth quarter of 2019. Lower average prices were primarily driven by regional customer mix. Adjusted EBITDA of $19 million was 19 percent higher in comparison to the prior-year quarter, reflecting a 1100 bps improvement in margins to 23 percent from 12 percent in the prior-year primarily due to portfolio management actions and lower costs.
Titanium Technologies
Titanium Technologies segment net sales in the second quarter were $488 million in comparison to $567 million in the prior-year quarter. Volumes were down 9 percent versus the prior-year second quarter, a result of softer demand primarily in Europe, Latin America and Asia. North America was relatively flat, as the DIY trends helped support the end-market demand in the region. Global average selling prices were flat sequentially and down 5 percent on a year-over-year basis. Segment Adjusted EBITDA decreased by 26 percent to $94 million, in comparison to $127 million in last year's second quarter, negatively impacted by fixed cost under-absorption.
Corporate and Other
Corporate and Other in the second quarter 2020 represented a $44 million offset to Adjusted EBITDA, versus a $40 million offset in the prior-year quarter. This increase was attributable to higher costs associated with environmental remediation matters partially offset by reductions in compensation expense and lower external spend.
Liquidity
As of June 30, 2020, consolidated gross debt was $4.4 billion. Debt, net of $1 billion cash, was $3.3 billion, resulting in a net leverage ratio of approximately 3.7 times on a trailing twelve-month Adjusted EBITDA basis. Total liquidity was $1.4 billion, comprised of $1 billion of cash and $399 million of revolver capacity.
Cash provided by operating activities for the second quarter of 2020 was $111 million, up $104 million from $7 million in the prior-year quarter. Capital expenditures for the second quarter 2020 were $61 million, versus $124 million in last year's second quarter. Free Cash Flow for the second quarter 2020 was a $50 million inflow versus the prior-year quarter of a $117 million outflow, an improvement of $167 million.
Outlook
Vergnano concluded: "The first half of 2020 has been one of the most difficult periods in our short history. I am proud of the way Chemours has responded and our ability to focus and execute through these uncertain times. The outlook for the second half, while improving, remains unclear. Looking ahead, as we navigate this uncertain time, we remain focused on the execution of our short-term response plan and long-term strategy. The Chemours Team will continue to work in strong partnership with our customers to deliver the full potential of our value proposition, because we win only if our customers win."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We prepare our financial statements in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). Within this press release, we may make reference to Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Effective Tax Rate, Return on Invested Capital and Net Leverage Ratio which are non-GAAP financial measures. The company includes these non-GAAP financial measures because management believes they are useful to investors in that they provide for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making.
Management uses Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Effective Tax Rate, Return on Invested Capital and Net Leverage Ratio to evaluate the company's performance excluding the impact of certain noncash charges and other special items which we expect to be infrequent in occurrence in order to have comparable financial results to analyze changes in our underlying business from quarter to quarter.
Accordingly, the company believes the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, is a useful financial analysis tool that can assist investors in assessing the company's operating performance and underlying prospects. This analysis should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. This analysis, as well as the other information in this press release, should be read in conjunction with the company's financial statements and footnotes contained in the documents that the company files with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the company in this press release may be different from the methods used by other companies. For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please refer to the attached schedules or the table, "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP Financial Measures" and materials posted to the company's website at investors.chemours.com.
Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which involve risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements provide current expectations of future events based on certain assumptions and include any statement that does not directly relate to a historical or current fact. The words "believe," "expect," "will," "anticipate," "plan," "estimate," "target," "project" and similar expressions, among others, generally identify "forward-looking statements," which speak only as of the date such statements were made. These forward-looking statements may address, among other things, the outcome or resolution of any pending or future environmental liabilities, the commencement, outcome or resolution of any regulatory inquiry, investigation or proceeding, the initiation, outcome or settlement of any litigation, changes in environmental regulations in the U.S. or other jurisdictions that affect demand for or adoption of our products, anticipated future operating and financial performance, business plans, prospects, targets, goals and commitments, capital investments and projects, plans for dividends or share repurchases, sufficiency or longevity of intellectual property protection, cost reductions or savings targets, plans to increase profitability and growth, our ability to make acquisitions, integrate acquired businesses or assets into our operations, and achieve anticipated synergies or cost savings, all of which are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements. Forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions and expectations of future events that may not be accurate or realized. These statements are not guarantees of future performance. Forward-looking statements also involve risks and uncertainties that are beyond Chemours' control. In addition, the current COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the national and global economy and commodity and financial markets. The full extent and impact of the pandemic is unknown and to date has included extreme volatility in financial and commodity markets, a significant slowdown in economic activity, and increased predictions of a global recession. The public and private sector response has led to significant restrictions on travel, temporary business closures, quarantines, stock market volatility, and a general reduction in consumer and commercial activity globally. Matters outside our control have affected our business and operations and may or may continue to limit travel of employees to our business units domestically and internationally, adversely affect the health and welfare of our personnel, significantly reduce the demand for our products, hinder our ability to provide goods and services to customers, cause disruptions in our supply chains, adversely affect our business partners or cause other unpredictable events. Additionally, there may be other risks and uncertainties that Chemours is unable to identify at this time or that Chemours does not currently expect to have a material impact on its business. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include the risks, uncertainties and other factors discussed in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. Chemours assumes no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statement for any reason, except as required by law.

The Chemours Company
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)
(Dollars in millions, except per share amounts)
Adjusted Earnings per Share to GAAP Earnings per Share Reconciliation
Adjusted earnings per share ("EPS") is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted Adjusted EPS accounts for the dilutive impact of stock-based compensation awards, which includes unvested restricted shares. Diluted Adjusted EPS considers the impact of potentially-dilutive securities, except in periods in which there is a loss because the inclusion of the potentially-dilutive securities would have an anti-dilutive effect.
