NORTHBROOK, Ill., April 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Stepan Company (NYSE: SCL) today reported:
First Quarter 2024 Highlights
- Reported net income was $13.9 million. Adjusted net income(1) was $14.7 million, down 11% year-over-year, largely due to a higher effective tax rate in 2024.
- EBITDA(2) was $50.2 million. Adjusted EBITDA(2) was $51.2 million, up 5% year-over-year.
- Global sales volume was up 1% year-over-year. Global sales volume, excluding declines in our Agricultural and commodity Phthalic Anhydride businesses, was up 4%.
- Cash from Operations was $41.6 million during the quarter. Free cash flow(3) for the quarter was $11.4 million as capital expenditures returned to historical levels.
- The Company is on track to deliver its $50 million cost out goal for 2024 and recognized $18 million in pre-tax savings in the first quarter.
“We are encouraged by the first quarter volume growth in several of our core end markets. Surfactants experienced double-digit volume growth within the Personal Care and Oil Field end markets and with our Distribution partners. As expected, Latin America Surfactant volumes grew double digits as we recovered Consumer volumes in Mexico. Rigid and Specialty Polyols volume grew 4% and 7%, respectively, while Specialty Products volume was up double digits. Soft demand in the Agricultural market due to continued inventory destocking delivered a poor comparison to the prior year first quarter record Agricultural volumes. This weakness in the Agricultural market, coupled with lower Phthalic Anhydride volumes due to operational issues at our Millsdale site, mostly offset volume recovery across our core markets in Surfactants, Polymers and Specialty Products. Margins were in line with expectations despite unfavorable product mix,” said Scott Behrens, President and Chief Executive Officer. “I am pleased with our first quarter progress towards our full year $50 million cost reduction program. We delivered adjusted EBITDA growth of 5% and generated positive free cash flow despite higher operating costs related to operational interruptions at our Millsdale site, pre-commissioning expenses at our new Alkoxylation investment in Pasadena, Texas and the continuing impact of Agricultural destocking.”

Percentage Change in Net Sales
Net sales in the first quarter of 2024 decreased 15% year-over-year primarily due to lower selling prices that were mainly attributable to the pass-through of lower raw material costs and less favorable product mix. These lower selling prices were partially offset by a 1% increase in global sales volume and the favorable impact of foreign currency translation.

Consolidated adjusted EBITDA increased $2.5 million, or 5%, year-over-year as slightly higher sales volume and margin improvement more than offset $5.8 million of negative impact associated with the operational interruptions at the Millsdale plant site.
- Surfactant net sales were $390.8 million for the quarter, a 16% decrease versus the prior year. Selling prices were down 18% primarily due to the pass-through of lower raw material costs, less favorable product mix and competitive pricing pressures in Latin America. Sales volume was flat year-over-year as double digit growth within the Personal Care end markets, driven by prior year investments in Low 1,4 Dioxane, the Oil Field end markets and with our Distribution partners was offset by lower Agricultural demand due to continued customer and channel inventory destocking. Foreign currency translation positively impacted net sales by 2%. Surfactant adjusted EBITDA(2) for the quarter increased $1.5 million, or 4%, versus the prior year. This increase was primarily driven by margin improvement that was partially offset by pre-operating expenses at the Company’s new alkoxylation production facility being built in Pasadena, Texas and higher expenses associated with operational interruptions at the Millsdale plant.
- Polymer net sales were $145.5 million for the quarter, a 10% decrease versus the prior year. Selling prices decreased 14%, primarily due to the pass-through of lower raw material costs. Sales volume increased 1% in the quarter as a 4% increase in global Rigid Polyols and higher demand within the Specialty Polyols business was mostly offset by lower Phthalic Anhydride volume. Rigid Polyols experienced growth in all global regions. Foreign currency translation positively impacted net sales by 3%. Polymer adjusted EBITDA(2) decreased $1.9 million, or 10%, versus the prior year primarily due to higher costs incurred at the Millsdale plant site due to operational interruptions.
- Specialty Product net sales were $15.1 million for the quarter, a 33% decrease versus the prior year. Sales volume was up 11% versus the prior year while adjusted EBITDA(2) increased $1.9 million, or 49%. The increase in adjusted EBITDA(2) was primarily due to both higher unit margins and sales volume within the MCT product line.
Outlook
“Looking forward, we believe sales volumes will continue to gradually improve due to ongoing recovery in Rigid Polyols and growth in Surfactant volumes including the expected recovery of the Agricultural business in the second half of the year,” said Scott Behrens, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We remain focused on delivering $50 million in pre-tax savings from our previously shared cost reduction program to help offset inflationary pressures, increased expenses associated with the commissioning of our new Pasadena alkoxylation assets, higher incentive-based compensation expenses and expenses associated with the operational issues at our Millsdale site. Free cash flow should continue to improve versus prior year as we finish construction on our Pasadena investment and benefit from higher Agriculture volumes in the second half of the year. Continued gradual growth in market volumes, improved operational performance and our continued focus on cost reduction should position us to deliver full year adjusted EBITDA growth and positive free cash flow. We remain confident in our long-term growth and innovation initiatives.”

The Company believes that certain non-GAAP measures, in conjunction with comparable GAAP measures, are useful for evaluating the Company’s operating performance and financial condition. The Company uses this non-GAAP information as an indicator of business performance and evaluates management’s effectiveness with specific reference to these indicators. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information because they exclude non-operational items that affect comparability between years. These measures should be considered in addition to, not as substitutes for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies. The Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 contains additional information regarding the use of non-GAAP financial measures.
Summary of First Quarter 2024 Adjusted Net Income Items
Adjusted net income excludes non-operational deferred compensation income/expense, cash-settled SARs income/expense, certain environmental remediation costs and other significant and infrequent or non-recurring items.
- Deferred Compensation: The first quarter of 2024 reported net income includes $0.4 million of after-tax income versus $0.1 million of after-tax income in the prior year.
- Environmental Remediation – The first quarter of 2024 reported net income includes $1.2 million of after-tax expense versus $0.3 million of after-tax expense in the prior year. The higher current year expense primarily reflects a reserve adjustment for environmental costs related to the property formerly owned and operated by the Company in Wilmington, Massachusetts.
