      YARDLEY, Pa., July 19, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Crown Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: CCK) today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021.

      Highlights

      • Earnings per share $0.95 versus $0.94 in 2020
      • Adjusted earnings per share increased to $2.14 over the $1.33 in 2020
      • Global beverage can volumes grew 20%
      • Solid food can demand
      • Repurchased $379 million in Company shares year to date through July 16
      • European Tinplate sale on schedule for expected Q3 closing; reported as discontinued operations

      Net sales in the second quarter were $2,856 million compared to $2,137 million in the second quarter of 2020 reflecting increased beverage can and transit packaging sales unit volumes, the pass through of higher material costs and favorable currency translation of $125 million.

      Income from operations was $385 million in the second quarter compared to $208 million in the second quarter of 2020.  Segment income was $395 million in the second quarter compared to $250 million in the prior year second quarter primarily due to increased sales unit volumes and $18 million of favorable currency translation.

      Commenting on the quarter, Timothy J. Donahue, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "The Company's performance during the second quarter continued to be strong, and Crown remains on track for another record year in earnings.  Adjusted earnings per share and segment income increased 61% and 58%, respectively, and were largely fueled by beverage can volume growth of 20%, as each global region recorded double-digit gains.  Demand recovery has been robust in regions such as Brazil, throughout Europe, Mexico, the Middle East and Southeast Asia that previously had been adversely impacted by the pandemic.  Each of our businesses performed very well commercially and operationally despite certain challenges posed by supply chain disruptions.  The strong results delivered by Transit Packaging were driven by continuing improvement in global manufacturing activity and the achievement of several cost reduction initiatives.  So far this year, the Company has repurchased $379 million of common stock, executing on our capital allocation strategy of returning cash to shareholders.

      "The Company previously announced an agreement to sell its European Tinplate business to KPS Capital Partners.  The business comprises 44 manufacturing facilities in Europe, the Middle East and Africa that produce food cans and ends, aerosol cans, metal closures and promotional packaging for various consumer brands.  We expect that the transaction will close during the third quarter of 2021.  Net proceeds from the transaction will be used for debt reduction, beverage can capital projects and continued share repurchases over time.

      "To meet accelerating demand for beverage cans, the world's most recycled and sustainable beverage packaging, the Company is implementing several capacity expansion projects globally, which include both the construction of new plants and the addition of production lines to existing facilities.  By the end of 2022, we expect to have 97 billion units of annualized global beverage can capacity, an increase of 28%, or 21 billion units, from the 2019 base.  During the second quarter, the first line in our new Bowling Green, Kentucky facility began commercial shipments, with the second line expected to commence production during the third quarter.  Also early in the fourth quarter, the Company will begin operation of a new one-line plant in Vung Tau, Vietnam as well as additional production lines in Olympia, Washington and Rio Verde, Brazil.  Beverage cans now account for approximately 75% of the Company's income from operations."

      Interest expense was $68 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared to $73 million in 2020 primarily due to lower outstanding debt balances.

      Net income attributable to Crown Holdings in the second quarter was $128 million compared to $126 million in the second quarter of 2020.  Reported diluted earnings per share were $0.95 in the second quarter of 2021 compared to $0.94 in 2020.  Adjusted diluted earnings per share increased to $2.14 over the $1.33 in 2020. 

      A reconciliation from net income and diluted earnings per share to adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share is provided below.

      Six Month Results
      Net sales for the first six months of 2021 were $5,420 million compared to $4,443 million in the first six months of 2020, primarily due to increased sales unit volumes, the pass through of higher material costs and $177 million of favorable currency translation.

      Income from operations was $712 million in the first half of 2021 compared to $426 million in the first half of 2020.  Segment income in the first half of 2021 was $764 million versus $515 million in the prior year period, primarily due to increased sales unit volumes and $24 of foreign currency translation.

      Interest expense was $137 million for the first six months of 2021 compared to $151 million in 2020 primarily due to lower outstanding debt balances.

      Net income attributable to Crown Holdings in the first six months of 2021 was $339 million compared to $214 million in the first six months of 2020.  Reported diluted earnings per share were $2.52 compared to $1.59 in 2020.  Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $3.97 compared to $2.46 in 2020.

      Outlook
      The Company currently expects third quarter adjusted earnings to be in the range of $1.90 to $2.00 per share, and full year adjusted earnings in the range of $7.30 to $7.40 per share.  These estimates include the results of the European Tinplate business through August 31, 2021.

      Non-GAAP Measures
      Segment income, adjusted free cash flow, adjusted net leverage ratio, adjusted net income, the adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted diluted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA are not defined terms under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (non-GAAP measures).  Non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for income from operations, net income, diluted earnings per share, effective tax rates, cash flow or leverage ratio data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to calculations of similarly titled measures by other companies.

      The Company views segment income as the principal measure of the performance of its operations and adjusted free cash flow and adjusted net leverage ratio as the principal measure of its liquidity.  The Company considers all of these measures in the allocation of resources.  Adjusted free cash flow has certain limitations, however, including that it does 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.  The amount of mandatory versus discretionary expenditures can vary significantly between periods.  Reconciliations of estimated adjusted diluted earnings per share for the third quarter and full year of 2021 to estimated diluted earnings per share on a GAAP basis are not provided in this release due to the unavailability of estimates of the following, the timing and magnitude of which the Company is unable to reliably forecast without unreasonable efforts, which are excluded from estimated adjusted diluted earnings per share and could have a significant impact on earnings per share on a GAAP basis: gains or losses on the sale of businesses or other assets, restructuring and other costs, asset impairment charges, asbestos-related charges, losses from early extinguishment of debt, pension settlement and curtailment charges, the tax and noncontrolling interest impact of the items above, and the impact of tax law changes or other tax matters. The Company believes that adjusted net income, the adjusted effective tax rate and adjusted diluted earnings per share are useful in evaluating the Company's operations as these measures are adjusted for items that affect comparability between periods.  The Company believes that adjusted free cash flow and adjusted net leverage ratio provide meaningful measures of liquidity and a useful basis for assessing the Company's ability to fund its activities, including the financing of acquisitions, debt repayments, share repurchases or dividends.  Segment income, adjusted free cash flow, adjusted net leverage ratio, the adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA are derived from the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations and Cash Flows and Consolidated Balance Sheets, as applicable, and reconciliations to segment income, adjusted free cash flow, net leverage ratio, the adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA can be found within this release.

      Adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share and the adjusted effective tax rate are non-GAAP measures and are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, diluted earnings per share and effective tax rates determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.  The Company believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to evaluate the performance of the Company's ongoing business.


      (1)

      In the second quarter and first six months of 2021, the Company recorded charges of $41 million ($30 million net of tax) and $88 million ($66 million net of tax) for intangibles amortization arising from prior acquisitions.  In the second quarter and first six months of 2020, the Company recorded charges of $44 million ($34 million net of tax) and $89 million ($68 million net of tax) for intangibles amortization.



      (2)

      In the second quarter and first six months of 2021, the Company recorded net restructuring and other gains of $25 million ($17 million net of tax) and $23 million ($15 million net of tax), including a second quarter gain of $30 million arising from a favorable court ruling in Brazil related to overcharges of indirect taxes paid in prior years.  This gain was offset by other net charges of $5 million in the quarter and $7 million in the first six months primarily related to transaction costs.  In the second quarter and first six months of 2020, the Company recorded net restructuring and other charges of $3 million ($3 million net of tax) and $10 million ($8 million net of tax).



      (3)

      In the second quarter and first six months of 2020, the Company recorded charges of $19 million ($15 million net of tax) and $56 million ($45 million net of tax) arising from pension plan settlements.

      In the second quarter and first six months of 2021, the Company recorded income tax benefits of $3 million and $14 million related to the items described above; and benefits of $5 million in the quarter and $8 million in the first six months related to tax law changes in the U.K and India.  Also in the second quarter of 2021, the Company recorded charges of $31 million for tax costs arising from reorganizations and other transactions required to prepare its European Tinplate business for sale, and $40 million for deferred tax valuation allowance adjustments in France.  In the second quarter and first six months of 2020, the Company recorded benefits of $14 million and $34 million related to the items described above.  In the first quarter of 2020, the Company recorded benefits of $4 million arising from tax law changes in India. 



      (5)

      In the second quarter of 2021, the Company recorded an after-tax charge of $70 million (primarily due to cumulative translation adjustments of approximately $600 million) in connection with the agreement to sell its European Tinplate operations.



      (6)

      In the second quarter of 2021, the Company recorded noncontrolling interest charges of $10 million related to the items described above.



      (7)

      The reported and adjusted effective tax rates include income from discontinued operations, which is reported net of tax in the statement of operations.  Income tax effects on adjusted net income were calculated using the applicable tax rates of the underlying jurisdiction.

      The impact of foreign currency translation represents the difference between actual current year U.S. dollar results and pro forma amounts assuming constant foreign currency exchange rates for translation in both periods.  In order to compute the difference, the Company compares actual U.S. dollar results to an amount calculated by multiplying or dividing, as appropriate, the current U.S. dollar results by current year average foreign exchange rates and then multiplying or dividing, as appropriate, those amounts by the applicable prior year average foreign exchange rates.
