Management Commentary

“We are pleased by the strong demand trends we’ve seen in our business and proud that we achieved double-digit sales growth for a second consecutive quarter,” said IFF Chairman and CEO Andreas Fibig. “Across a large portion of our portfolio, we are growing at an accelerated rate – all as we continue to successfully integrate and deliver on our synergy commitments. These results are indicative of our best-in-class product portfolio, industry-leading innovation and our position as an essential partner to our customers."

Mr. Fibig concluded, "In the short-term, unprecedented macro supply-chain challenges and related cost increases have impacted our profitability margin. We are confident in our team's ability to manage through these conditions and fully offset pressures over time as we increase pricing, drive additional productivity, and continue to exhibit strong cost discipline. While the global supply chain environment remains volatile, we are confident in our long-term value creation opportunity as we execute our strategy and drive our business forward.”

Third Quarter 2021 Consolidated Financial Results

  • Reported net sales for the third quarter were $3.07 billion, an increase of 142% compared to the prior year period, driven primarily by the incremental sales related to the merger with Nutrition & Biosciences ("N&B"). On a combined basis2, sales increased 12% or 11% on a currency neutral basis, driven by mid-teen growth in Nourish and strong increases in Scent and Health & Biosciences.
  • Income before taxes on a reported basis for the third quarter was $250 million. Adjusted operating EBITDA for the third quarter was $648 million, an increase of 135% from $276 million in 2020 principally driven by the incremental profit related to the merger with N&B. On a combined basis2, adjusted operating EBITDA increased 4%, as strong sales growth and continued cost discipline more than offset inflationary pressures.
  • Reported earnings per share (EPS) for the third quarter was $0.76. Adjusted EPS excluding amortization was $1.47 per diluted share.
  • Cash flow from operations for the third quarter was strong, increasing $711 million versus year-ago period, to $1.13 billion, and free cash flow defined as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures totaled $884 million. Net debt to credit adjusted EBITDA at the end of the third quarter was 4.1x.

Nourish Segment

  • On a reported basis, third quarter sales were $1.66 billion. On a combined basis2, currency neutral sales improved 15% led by broad-based double-digit growth across all segments.
  • Nourish adjusted operating EBITDA was $327 million. On a combined basis2, adjusted operating EBITDA grew 19% led by strong volume growth, price increases, productivity and cost management, and adjusted operating EBITDA margin expanded by 30bps to 19.7%.

Health & Biosciences Segment

  • On a reported basis, third quarter sales were $618 million. On a combined basis2, currency neutral sales increased 5% with growth across nearly all segments led by a double-digit increase in Home & Personal Care and strong increases in Cultures & Food Enzymes and Grain Processing.
  • Health & Biosciences adjusted operating EBITDA was $151 million. On a combined basis2, adjusted operating EBITDA decreased 12% and adjusted operating EBITDA margin declined by 530bps to 24.4% due to inflationary pressures and higher logistics costs to balance demand with capacity.

Scent Segment

  • On a reported basis, third quarter sales were $580 million. On a combined basis2, currency neutral sales increased 9% against a strong high-single digit year ago comparison. Results were led by strong double-digit growth in Fine Fragrances, Cosmetic Actives and Fragrance Ingredients as well as modest growth in Consumer Fragrances.
  • Scent adjusted operating EBITDA was $130 million. On a combined basis2, adjusted operating EBITDA increased 10% led by strong volume growth and favorable mix, while adjusted operating EBITDA margin declined by 10bps to 22.4% principally due to higher raw material & logistic costs.

Pharma Solutions Segment

  • On a reported basis, third quarter sales were $211 million. On a combined basis2, currency neutral sales were down 2% as continued challenges related to raw material availability and logistics have limited the company’s ability to meet strong customer demand.
  • Pharma Solutions adjusted operating EBITDA was $40 million. On a combined basis2, adjusted operating EBITDA declined 34%, and adjusted operating EBITDA margin declined by 940bps to 19.0% driven by higher sourcing and logistics costs as well as increased manufacturing costs.

Financial Guidance

The Company updates its 2021 financial guidance on a combined basis due to the ongoing macro inflationary environment. Combined 2021 financial guidance is defined as a full 12 months of legacy IFF results, and 11 months (excludes January) of N&B results, in the 2021 period, in light of the merger completion on February 1, 2021.

In addition, you should consult other disclosures made by the Company (such as in our other filings with the SEC or in company press releases) for other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected by the Company. Please refer to Part I.

We intend our forward-looking statements to speak only as of the time of such statements and do not undertake or plan to update or revise them as more information becomes available or to reflect changes in expectations, assumptions or results. We can give no assurance that such expectations or forward-looking statements will prove to be correct.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We provide in this press release non-GAAP financial measures, including: (i) combined currency neutral sales; (ii) adjusted operating EBITDA and combined adjusted operating EBITDA; (iii) adjusted EBITDA margin and combined adjusted operating EBITDA margin; (iv) adjusted EPS ex amortization; (v) free cash flow; and (vi) net debt to credit adjusted EBITDA.

Our non-GAAP financial measures are defined below.

Currency Neutral metrics eliminate the effects that result from translating non-U.S. currencies to U.S. dollars. We calculate currency neutral numbers by translating current year invoiced sale amounts at the exchange rates used for the corresponding prior year period. We use currency neutral results in our analysis of subsidiary or segment performance. We also use currency neutral numbers when analyzing our performance against our competitors.

Adjusted operating EBITDA and adjusted operating EBITDA margin exclude depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, other income (expense), net, restructuring and other charges and certain non-recurring items such as Frutarom integration related costs, gain (losses) on sale of assets, shareholder activism related costs, business divestiture costs, employee separation costs, compliance review & legal defense costs, N&B inventory step-up costs, N&B transaction related costs, N&B integration related costs and the impact of the merger with N&B.

Adjusted EPS ex Amortization excludes the impact of non-operational items including Frutarom integration related costs, restructuring and other charges, gain (losses) on sale of assets, shareholder activism related costs, business divestiture costs, employee separation costs, Frutarom acquisition related costs, compliance review and legal defense costs, N&B inventory step up costs, N&B transaction related costs, N&B integration related costs, the impact of the merger with N&B and non-cash items including the amortization of acquisition related intangible assets.

Free Cash Flow is operating cash flow (i.e. cash flow from operations) less capital expenditures.

Net debt to credit adjusted EBITDA is the leverage ratio used in our credit agreement and defined as Net debt (which is long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents) divided by the trailing 12-month credit adjusted EBITDA. Credit adjusted EBITDA is defined as income (loss) before income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, specified items and non-cash items.

Combined historical results for the third quarter is defined as 3 months (July, August & September) of legacy IFF and N&B results, in both the 2020 period and the current 2021 period. Combined historical results for the full year is defined as 12 months of legacy IFF results, and 11 months (excluding January) of N&B results.

These non-GAAP measures are intended to provide additional information regarding our underlying operating results and comparable year-over-year performance. Such information is supplemental to information presented in accordance with GAAP and is not intended to represent a presentation in accordance with GAAP. In discussing our historical and expected future results and financial condition, we believe it is meaningful for investors to be made aware of and to be assisted in a better understanding of, on a period-to-period comparable basis, financial amounts both including and excluding these identified items, as well as the impact of exchange rate fluctuations. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of the Company’s results under GAAP and may not be comparable to other companies’ calculation of such metrics.

Effective in the first quarter of 2021, the Company elected to change the profit or loss measure of the Company's reportable segments from Segment Operating Profit to Segment Adjusted Operating EBITDA for internal reporting and performance measurement purposes. Segment Adjusted Operating EBITDA is defined as (Loss) Income Before Taxes before depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, restructuring and other charges, net and certain non-recurring items. Prior period amounts have been recast to reflect these changes in segment profitability measures. Our determination of reportable segments was made on the basis of our strategic priorities within each segment and corresponds to the manner in which our chief operating decision maker reviews and evaluates operating performance to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment. In addition to our strategic priorities, segment reporting is also based on differences in the products and services we provide. As a result, we added two new reportable segments - Health & Biosciences and Pharma Solutions. Nourish is composed of IFF’s legacy Taste segment and N&B’s Food & Beverage segment. The Scent and Health & Biosciences segments include a component of the legacy Taste segment.

The Company cannot reconcile its expected Adjusted Operating EBITDA margin to Income (loss) Before Taxes under "Financial Guidance" without unreasonable effort because certain items that impact net income and other reconciling metrics are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted at this time. These items include but are not limited to Frutarom integration related costs, losses on sale of assets, shareholder activism related costs, business divestiture costs, employee separation costs, compliance review & legal defense costs, N&B inventory step-up costs, N&B transaction related costs and N&B integration related costs.

Information related to the amounts included from merger with N&B was received directly from DuPont and management believes such information is reliable. DuPont has not provided the underlying adjustments for the amounts included, but based on management's review of financial statement and other scheduled information provided, we believe the amounts reflected are reasonable. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, amounts include N&B results for July through September and February through September, respectively, to reflect the same period N&B is included in IFF results in 2021.
