Board declared a 2017 first quarter cash dividend of $0.38 per share, which is flat compared to the first quarter of 2016.

Mattel, Inc. (NASDAQ: MAT) today reported full year and fourth quarter 2016 financial results.

"Our results were negatively impacted by a number of industry–wide challenges, including a significant U.S. toy category slowdown in the holiday period, and increased forex headwinds," said Christopher Sinclair, Chairman and CEO of Mattel. "And while our sales at retail remained strong, the slowdown triggered elevated retail promotional activity and decreased shipping, all of which had a significant impact on our gross margin."

Mr. Sinclair added, "Even against this difficult backdrop, our core brands continued to show solid growth, and our performance in key emerging markets like China was equally strong. And, importantly, we offset a substantial revenue gap from the loss of the Disney Princess license. Looking forward, we remain broadly optimistic about Mattel's performance in 2017 and beyond. Our core brands are strong and growing, we have a solid lineup of entertainment properties in the pipeline, and we are forging valuable relationships with key retail partners throughout the world."

For the year, reported worldwide net sales were down 4% as reported, and were down 2% in constant currency, versus the prior year.

Gross margin for the year decreased 240 basis points, driven mainly by the negative impact from changes in currency exchange rates. Reported other selling and administrative expenses for the year decreased $147.3 million and adjusted other selling and administrative expenses decreased $106.2 million, reflecting continuous cost improvement initiatives and lower incentive and equity compensation expenses. Reported operating income for the year was $519.2 million, compared to the prior year's reported operating income of $540.9 million. Adjusted operating income for the year was $560.8 million, compared to the prior year's adjusted operating income of $623.6 million. The Company delivered at the high end of its two-year, $300 million cost savings plan in 2016.

Reported operating income for the quarter was $262.6 million, compared to the prior year's fourth quarter reported operating income of $294.1 million.

For the year, net cash flows from operating activities were approximately $590 million, a decrease of approximately $145 million versus the prior year, primarily driven by higher working capital usage and lower net income. Cash flows used for investing activities were approximately $307 million, an increase of approximately $24 million versus the prior year, primarily driven by payments for acquisitions, partially offset by changes in foreign currency forward exchange contracts for the year. For the year, cash flows used for financing activities and other were approximately $306 million, compared to approximately $531 million in the prior year, primarily driven by proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt and higher short-term borrowings, partially offset by the repayment of maturing debt.

The Company's debt-to-total capital ratio as of December 31, 2016 was 49.2%.

Capital Deployment
The Board of Directors declared a 2017 first quarter cash dividend of $0.38 per share, which is flat compared to the first quarter of 2016. The dividend will be payable on March 3, 2017 to stockholders of record on February 16, 2017.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements on a variety of matters. These forward-looking statements are based on currently available operating, financial, economic and other information, and are subject to a number of significant risks and uncertainties. A variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control, could cause actual future results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Some of these factors are described in the Company's periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the "Risk Factors" section of Mattel's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 and Mattel's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for fiscal year 2016, as well as in Mattel's other public statements. Mattel does not update forward-looking statements and expressly disclaims any obligation to do so.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our financial results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), Mattel presents certain non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The non-GAAP financial measures that Mattel uses in this earnings release includes gross sales, adjusted other selling and administrative expenses, adjusted operating income, adjusted earnings per share and constant currency. Mattel uses these metrics to analyze its continuing operations and to monitor, assess and identify meaningful trends in its operating and financial performance, and each is discussed in detail below. These measures are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are attached to this earnings release as exhibits and to our earnings slide presentation as an appendix.

This earnings release and our earnings slide presentation are available on Mattel's Investor Relations website, http://investor.shareholder.com/mattel, under the subheading "Financial Information – Earnings Releases."

Gross sales
Gross sales represent sales to customers, excluding the impact of sales adjustments. Net sales, as reported, include the impact of sales adjustments, such as trade discounts and other allowances. Mattel presents changes in gross sales as a metric for comparing its aggregate, brand and geographic results to highlight significant trends in Mattel's business. Changes in gross sales are discussed because, while Mattel records the details of such sales adjustments in its financial accounting systems at the time of sale, such sales adjustments are generally not associated with brands and individual products, making net sales less meaningful.

Adjusted other selling and administrative expenses
Adjusted other selling and administrative expenses represents Mattel's reported other selling and administrative expenses, adjusted to exclude the impact of expenses associated with the acquisition and integration of an acquired business and restructuring and restructuring-related expenses. Adjusted other selling and administrative expenses is presented to provide additional perspective on underlying trends in Mattel's core other selling and administrative expenses.

Adjusted operating income
Adjusted operating income represents Mattel's reported operating income, adjusted to exclude expenses associated with the acquisition and integration of an acquired business and the impact of restructuring and restructuring-related expenses. Adjusted operating income is presented to provide additional perspective on underlying trends in Mattel's core operating results.

Adjusted earnings per share
Adjusted earnings per share represents Mattel's reported diluted earnings per common share, adjusted to exclude expenses associated with the acquisition and integration of an acquired business, the impact of restructuring and restructuring-related expenses, sale of non-core assets, and currency devaluations. The aggregate tax effect of the adjustments is calculated by tax effecting the adjustments by the current effective tax rate, and dividing by the reported weighted average number of common and potential common shares. Adjusted earnings per share is presented to provide additional perspective on underlying trends in Mattel's core earnings. Adjusted earnings per share is a performance measure and should not be used as a measure of liquidity.

Constant currency
Percentage changes in results expressed in constant currency are presented excluding the impact from changes in currency exchange rates. To present this information, Mattel calculates constant currency information by translating current period and prior period results for entities reporting in currencies other than the US dollar using consistent exchange rates. The consistent exchange rates are determined by Mattel at the beginning of each year and are applied consistently during the year. They are generally different from the actual exchange rates in effect during the current or prior period due to volatility in actual foreign exchange rates. Mattel established the exchange rates that it uses for these constant currency calculations years ago. It considers whether any changes to these rates are appropriate at the beginning of each year but, generally, has held them unchanged. The difference between the current period and prior period results using the consistent exchange rates reflects the changes in the underlying performance results, excluding the impact from changes in currency exchange rates. Mattel analyzes constant currency results to provide additional perspective on changes in underlying trends in Mattel's operating performance.
