OLIN CORPORATION CLAYTON, Mo., Oct. 31, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Olin Corporation (NYSE: OLN) announced today financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2016.
The third quarter 2016 reported net income was $17.5 million, or $0.11 per diluted share. Third quarter 2016 adjusted EBITDA of $221.9 million reflects depreciation and amortization expense of $135.3 million, restructuring charges of $5.2 million, and acquisition-related integration costs of $13.1 million. Adjusted net income from operations per share was $0.33 per diluted share, which excludes the aforementioned restructuring charges, acquisition-related integration costs and $40.4 million of step-up depreciation and amortization expense. Sales in the third quarter 2016 were $1,452.7 million.
John E. Fischer, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Third quarter results showed sequential improvement across all three segments from the second quarter. Despite higher natural gas and purchased ethylene costs in the third quarter, Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls segment earnings improved as a result of higher caustic soda prices and higher volumes. We expect that the positive pricing trends in caustic soda will continue for the foreseeable future given improved caustic soda industry fundamentals. As a point of reference, if Olin's forecasted fourth quarter 2016 caustic soda price remains constant through 2017, the year-over-year improvement on a full year basis in adjusted EBITDA would be approximately $100 million.
"The Epoxy business remains on track with its long-term plan, as demonstrated by stronger segment earnings and volumes in the third quarter. Prices improved in the third quarter compared to the second quarter but were offset by higher raw materials costs. Winchester third quarter 2016 segment earnings increased sequentially and year-over-year driven by increased sales to all customer categories. Winchester continues to expect segment earnings for the full year 2016 that exceed 2015 levels. Finally, we expect $60 million of cost and operational synergy savings this year with additional savings to be realized over the next four to six quarters."
In the fourth quarter of 2016, Olin anticipates net income (loss) in the range of a $10 million net loss to $10 million net income, or $(0.05) to $0.05 per diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA to be in the $190 million to $220 million range.
-- Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls segment earnings are expected to be
slightly lower than third quarter earnings, reflecting higher caustic
soda pricing offset by normal seasonally lower volumes and higher
natural gas and purchased ethylene costs. Fourth quarter caustic soda
pricing is expected to improve 7% to 10% sequentially from the third
quarter;
-- Epoxy segment earnings are expected to be similar sequentially as price
increases and lower expenses for maintenance outages offset higher raw
materials costs and seasonally weaker volumes;
-- Normal seasonally weaker Winchester earnings are expected to decline
compared to the third quarter; however, year-over-year fourth quarter
results are expected to improve from 2015;
-- Corporate and Other costs are expected to increase compared to the third
quarter due to higher environmental costs and lower pension income;
-- Pretax restructuring costs and acquisition-related integration costs are
forecast to total approximately $20 million;
-- Acquisition step-up depreciation and amortization expense is forecast to
be approximately $40 million; and
-- Net income forecast includes approximately $0.24 per diluted share of
expected restructuring costs, acquisition-related integration costs and
acquisition step-up depreciation and amortization expense.
As a result, Olin expects full year 2016 adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $810 million to $840 million. The reduction in the full year adjusted EBITDA range from the previous guidance reflects the combined impact of higher natural gas and purchased ethylene costs on the third and fourth quarters and lower than expected third and fourth quarter Epoxy segment earnings.
SEGMENT REPORTING
Olin defines segment earnings as income (loss) before interest expense, interest income, other operating income (expense) and income taxes and include the earnings of non-consolidated affiliates in segment results consistent with management's monitoring of the operating segments.
Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2015, Olin modified its reportable segments to incorporate the acquisition of Dow's chlorine products businesses (the Acquired Business). Olin reports in three operating segments: Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls, Epoxy and Winchester. The new reporting structure has been retrospectively applied to the financial results for all periods presented. The former Olin Chlor Alkali Products and Olin Chemical Distribution segments have been included in the new Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls segment.
During 2016, Olin is providing sequential segment comparisons. Year-over-year segment comparisons for Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls and Epoxy are not meaningful because Olin did not own the Acquired Business until October of 2015.
CHLOR ALKALI PRODUCTS AND VINYLS
Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls sales for the third quarter 2016 were $779.4 million compared to $733.0 million in the second quarter 2016. Third quarter 2016 segment earnings of $53.7 million improved compared to $30.7 million in the second quarter 2016 primarily due to higher caustic soda pricing, increased caustic soda volumes, and decreased expenses for maintenance outages. This was partially offset by increased raw materials costs associated with purchased ethylene and natural gas pricing. Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls third quarter 2016 results included depreciation and amortization expense of $106.3 million compared to $103.4 million in second quarter 2016.
EPOXY
Epoxy sales for the third quarter 2016 were $470.1 million compared to $450.0 million in the second quarter 2016. This increase in Epoxy sales is primarily due to higher volumes and increased prices. Third quarter 2016 segment earnings were $10.3 million compared to breakeven in the second quarter of 2016. The Epoxy segment earnings improvement is primarily due to an increase in volumes and a decrease of expenses for maintenance outages partially offset by increased raw materials costs associated with benzene and propylene pricing. Epoxy third quarter 2016 results included depreciation and amortization expense of $22.6 million compared to $23.0 million in second quarter 2016.
WINCHESTER
Winchester sales for the third quarter 2016 were $203.2 million compared to $181.0 million in the second quarter 2016. The increase is primarily due to increased shipments to commercial customers. Third quarter 2016 segment earnings were $36.0 million compared to $31.2 million in the second quarter 2016. The increase in segment earnings reflects higher commercial shipments, lower commodity and material costs and lower manufacturing and other costs. Winchester third quarter 2016 results included depreciation and amortization expense of $4.7 million compared to $4.5 million in second quarter 2016.
CORPORATE AND OTHER COSTS
Pension income included in the third quarter 2016 Corporate and Other segment was $15.4 million compared to $12.6 million in the second quarter of 2016.
Third quarter 2016 charges to income for environmental investigatory and remedial activities were $0.4 million compared to $2.4 million in the second quarter 2016. These charges relate primarily to remedial and investigatory activities associated with former waste sites and past operations of the legacy Olin businesses.
Other corporate and unallocated costs in the third quarter 2016 increased $4.3 million compared to the second quarter 2016, primarily due to higher legal and litigation costs partially offset by decreased management incentive compensation costs which includes mark-to-market adjustments on stock-based compensation expense.
DIVIDEND
On October 26, 2016, Olin's Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.20 on each share of Olin common stock. The dividend is payable on December 9, 2016 to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 10, 2016. This will be the 360th consecutive quarterly dividend to be paid by the Company.

-- sensitivity to economic, business and market conditions in the United
States and overseas, including economic instability or a downturn in the
sectors served by us, such as ammunition, vinyls, urethanes, and pulp
and paper, and the migration by United States customers to low-cost
foreign locations;

average selling prices in the chlor alkali industry and the
supply/demand balance for our products, including the impact of excess
industry capacity or an imbalance in demand for our chlor alkali
products;
-- our substantial amount of indebtedness and significant debt service
obligations;
-- weak industry conditions could affect our ability to comply with the
financial maintenance covenants in our senior credit facilities;
-- the integration of the Acquired Business being more difficult,
time-consuming or costly than expected;
-- higher-than-expected raw material and energy, transportation, and/or
logistics costs;
-- our reliance on a limited number of suppliers for specified feedstock
and services and our reliance on third-party transportation;
-- economic and industry downturns that result in diminished product demand
and excess manufacturing capacity in any of our segments and that, in
many cases, result in lower selling prices and profits;
-- new regulations or public policy changes regarding the transportation of
hazardous chemicals and the security of chemical manufacturing
facilities;
-- changes in legislation or government regulations or policies;
-- failure to control costs or to achieve targeted cost reductions;
-- adverse conditions in the credit and capital markets, limiting or
preventing our ability to borrow or raise capital;
-- costs and other expenditures in excess of those projected for
environmental investigation and remediation or other legal proceedings;
-- unexpected litigation outcomes;
-- complications resulting from our multiple enterprise resource planning
(ERP) systems;
-- the failure or an interruption of our information technology systems;
-- the occurrence of unexpected manufacturing interruptions and outages,
including those occurring as a result of labor disruptions and
production hazards;
-- the effects of any declines in global equity markets on asset values and
any declines in interest rates used to value the liabilities in our
pension plan;
-- future funding obligations to our qualified defined benefit pension plan
attributable to assumed pension liabilities;
-- fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates;
-- failure to attract, retain and motivate key employees;
-- our ability to provide the same types and levels of benefits, services
and resources to the Acquired Business that historically have been
provided by TDCC at the same cost;
-- differences between the historical financial information of Olin and the
Acquired Business and our future operating performance;
-- the effect of any changes resulting from the transaction with TDCC in
customer, supplier and other business relationships; and
-- the effects of restrictions imposed on our business following the
transaction with TDCC in order to avoid significant tax-related
liabilities.
All of our forward-looking statements should be considered in light of these factors. In addition, other risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we consider immaterial could affect the accuracy of our forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures(a)
Olin's definition of Adjusted EBITDA
(Earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation, and amortization) is net
income (loss) plus an add-back for
depreciation and amortization, interest
expense (income), income tax expense
(benefit), other expense (income),
restructuring charges, acquisition-
related costs and certain other non-
recurring items. Adjusted EBITDA is a
non-GAAP financial measure. Management
believes that this measure is meaningful
to investors as a supplemental financial
measure to assess the financial
performance of our assets without regard
to financing methods, capital structures,
taxes, or historical cost basis. The use
of non-GAAP financial measures is not
intended to replace any measures of
performance determined in accordance with
GAAP and Adjusted EBITDA presented may
not be comparable to similarly titled
measures of other companies.
Reconciliation of forward-looking non-
GAAP financial measures to the most
directly comparable GAAP financial
measures are omitted from this release
because Olin is unable to provide such
reconciliations without the use of
unreasonable efforts. This inability
results from the inherent difficulty in
forecasting generally and quantifying
certain projected amounts that are
necessary for such reconciliations. In
particular, sufficient information is not
available to calculate certain
adjustments required for such
reconciliations, including interest
expense (income), income tax expense
(benefit), other expense (income),
restructuring charges, and acquisition-
related costs. Because of our inability
to calculate such adjustments, forward-
looking net income guidance is also
omitted from this release. We expect
these adjustments to have a potentially
significant impact on our future GAAP
financial results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures(a)
Olin's definition of adjusted net income (loss) from operations per share is net income (loss) per share plus a per dilutive share add-back for step-up depreciation and amortization recorded in conjunction with
the Acquired Business, restructuring charges, acquisition-related costs, certain other non-recurring items and the tax impact of the aforementioned adjustments. Adjusted net income (loss) from operations per
share is a non-GAAP financial measure excluding certain items that we do not consider part of ongoing operations. Management believes that this supplemental financial measure is meaningful to investors as a
financial performance metric which is useful to investors for comparative purposes. The use of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to replace any measures of performance determined in accordance with
GAAP and adjusted net income (loss) from operations per share presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
