/EIN News/ -- CAMP HILL, Pa., Feb. 21, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Harsco Corporation (NYSE: HSC) today reported fourth quarter 2019 results. On a U.S. GAAP ("GAAP") basis, fourth quarter of 2019 diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.03, which included acquisition integration and strategic costs and other unusual items. Adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations in the fourth quarter of 2019 were $0.12.

These figures compare with fourth quarter of 2018 GAAP diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $0.41 and adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $0.21.

“While our results for the fourth quarter were disappointing, 2019 marked a year of significant progress on our key strategic initiatives and our goal to transform Harsco into a single-thesis environmental solutions company,” said Chairman and CEO Nick Grasberger. “We increased investment in Environmental to support growth in our services and product portfolio, while realizing solid margins despite external market pressures. We positioned Rail to grow through product innovation and market penetration, leading to record backlog at year-end. We made significant strides on our transformation with the acquisition of Clean Earth, which has been a steady and strong performer. Also, we sold our Industrial businesses, providing additional financial flexibility and a focus on expanding our presence in higher growth, less cyclical areas. We enter 2020 as a markedly different company than we were last year, well-positioned to drive growth and value creation.”

Mr. Grasberger continued, “The actions we are taking to improve performance in Rail are taking hold, Clean Earth’s momentum is set to continue, and we are cautiously optimistic on key end-markets. As a result, we expect that each of our business segments will deliver improved results in 2020. We are also focused on closing and integrating the ESOL acquisition. ESOL is a business we know well and presents a unique opportunity to accelerate our transformation to a leading, global environmental solutions company. While we made significant strides in 2019, we know we have more work to do. Our priorities for 2020 include improving Rail operations, delivering on our financial targets, strengthening our balance sheet and leveraging our strategic transformation to drive shareholder value.”

Note: Income statement details above and commentary below reflect that Industrial is reclassified as Discontinued Operations. Also, adjusted operating income details presented throughout this release are adjusted for unusual items and acquisition-related amortization expense.

Consolidated Fourth Quarter Operating Results
Consolidated total revenues from continuing operations were $400 million, an increase of 21 percent compared with the prior-year quarter given the acquisition of Clean Earth in the current year. Foreign currency translation negatively impacted fourth quarter 2019 revenues by approximately $3 million compared with the prior-year period.

GAAP operating income from continuing operations was $20 million and adjusted operating income was $31 million for the fourth quarter of 2019; both figures are consistent with the update provided by the Company in January. Also, these figures compare with GAAP operating income from continuing operations of $28 million and adjusted operating income of $27 million in the same quarter of last year.

Adjusted operating income in Rail declined year-on-year principally due to the previously disclosed operational challenges following the consolidation of Rail's North American manufacturing into a single facility in South Carolina. Environmental's adjusted earnings also decreased modestly relative to the prior-year quarter. The remainder of the change in adjusted operating income compared with the fourth quarter of 2018 is attributable to lower Corporate spending and the inclusion of Clean Earth.

The Company's GAAP and adjusted operating margins in the fourth quarter of 2019 were 5.0 percent and 7.7 percent, respectively.

Consolidated 2019 Operating Results

Consolidated total revenues were $1.5 billion in 2019, compared to $1.3 billion in 2018, with the increase attributable to revenue growth in Rail during the year and the acquisition of Clean Earth. Rail revenues benefited from higher equipment demand from domestic and international customers.  Revenues in Environmental decreased modestly compared with 2018 but were unchanged on a constant currency basis. Foreign currency translation negatively impacted 2019 revenues by approximately $41 million compared with 2018.

GAAP operating income from continuing operations was $104 million in 2019, while GAAP operating income from continuing operations in 2018 was $131 million. These figures are $148 million and $132 million, respectively, when excluding unusual items as well as acquisition related amortization in both periods. The improvement in adjusted results is due to the inclusion of Clean Earth.
On a GAAP basis, diluted earnings per share from continuing operations in 2019 was $0.35, including acquisition integration and strategic costs, debt financing expenses and an Environmental bad debt provision, among other unusual items. This figure compares with diluted earnings per share in 2018 of $1.20, including unusual items such as a non-cash adjustment to the Company's deferred tax assets due to the impact of U.S. tax reform and expenses incurred to amend and re-price the Company's credit facilities.

Adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.90 in 2019 compared with $0.94 in 2018.

Fourth Quarter Business Review

Environmental

($ in millions)	Q4 2019				Q4 2018				%Change
Revenues	$	243			$	262			(7	)%
Operating income - GAAP	$	27			$	28			(4	)%
Operating margin - GAAP	11.3		%		10.8		%

Environmental revenues totaled $243 million in the fourth quarter of 2019, compared with $262 million in the prior-year quarter. This change is attributable to lower services demand from steel customers, decreased sales of certain applied products and foreign currency translation impacts. The segment's operating income and adjusted operating income totaled $27 million and $25 million, respectively, in the fourth quarter of 2019. These figures compare with GAAP operating income of $28 million and adjusted operating income of $27 million in the prior-year period. The change in adjusted operating earnings is attributable to the above factors, partially offset by lower administrative expenses. Environmental's operating margin was 11.3 percent and adjusted operating margin was 10.4 percent in the fourth quarter of 2019.

Clean Earth

($ in millions)	Q4 2019				Q4 2018				%Change
Revenues	$	82			$	67			22%
Operating income - GAAP	$	9			$	1			nmf
Operating margin - GAAP	10.6		%		2.1		%
Note: The 2018 financial information provided above and discussed below for Clean Earth is not incorporated within Harsco's consolidated results and is provided only for comparison purposes.

Clean Earth revenues totaled $82 million, representing an increase of 22 percent compared with the prior-year quarter. The increase can be attributed to strong volume growth, particularly for contaminated and dredged material processing, as well as previously-completed acquisitions. Segment operating income and adjusted operating income in the fourth quarter of 2019 totaled $9 million, and $14 million, respectively. These figures compare favorably with $1 million and $5 million, respectively, in the prior-year period. Higher adjusted earnings were due to the above factors as well as a more favorable mix of revenues and back-end solutions. Clean Earth's operating margin was 10.6 percent and adjusted operating margin was 17.4 percent in the fourth quarter of 2019.

Rail

($ in millions)	Q4 2019				Q4 2018				%Change
Revenues	$	75			$	69			8	%
Operating income - GAAP	$	(3	)		$	8			(142	)%
Operating margin - GAAP	(4.3		)%		11.2		%

Rail revenues totaled $75 million, an increase of 8 percent compared with the fourth quarter of 2018. The segment incurred an operating loss in the fourth quarter of 2019 of $3 million, which compares with operating income of $8 million in the prior-year quarter. These changes are attributable to lower after-market parts and Protran Technology sales and higher manufacturing costs due to operating challenges at Rail's manufacturing facility in South Carolina, as well as lower contract services contributions. These impacts were partially offset by contributions from higher machine sales and lower administrative costs.

Cash Flow

Net cash used by operating activities totaled $50 million in the fourth quarter of 2019, including taxes paid on the gain from the sale of discontinued operations, compared with net cash provided by operating activities of $97 million in the prior-year period. Free cash flow was $28 million (before transaction expenses) in the fourth quarter of 2019, compared with $60 million in the prior-year period. The change in free cash flow compared with the prior-year quarter is attributable to changes in net cash from operating activities, including working capital at Rail due to its operational challenges.

For the full-year, net cash provided by operating activities was nominal and free cash flow was $(32) million in 2019. These figures compare to $192 million and $73 million, respectively, in 2018. The full-year change in free cash flow reflects incremental growth capital spending in Environmental, as well as lower net cash from operating activities.

2020 Outlook

The Company's 2020 guidance anticipates that each of its three business segments will realize earnings improvement during the year. This outlook is supported by strong backlog positions that provide forward visibility in Rail and Clean Earth, anticipated benefits from the Company's key business initiatives, a healthy pipeline of growth opportunities in all segments and stable-to-improving fundamentals in relevant end markets.

Environmental adjusted EBITDA is expected to increase modestly. Higher services demand, benefits of services and product growth initiatives and cost improvement savings are anticipated to be only partially offset by the impacts of exited sites and higher SG&A spending.

Clean Earth adjusted EBITDA is projected to increase due to underlying organic growth and benefits of permit modifications to process additional medical and household waste as well as synergies; partially offset by a less favorable mix of business. Also, Clean Earth's adjusted EBITDA will be impacted by a $5 million allocation of Corporate costs (allocation was zero in H2 2019) and this outlook does not consider the acquisition of Stericycle's ESOL business.

Rail adjusted EBITDA is anticipated to be significantly higher compared with 2019, as a result of increased global demand for equipment and Protran Technology products, higher contracting contributions and manufacturing improvements. These benefits are expected to be only partially offset by a less favorable mix of after-market parts sales and higher R&D and SG&A spending.

Lastly, Corporate spending is expected to range from $26 million to $29 million for the year.

Key summary highlights in the Outlook are included below.

(a)	Consultant costs at Corporate associated with supporting and executing the Company's growth strategy (Q4 2019 $7.3 million pre-tax; Full year 2019 $25.2 million pre-tax).
(b)	Fair value adjustment to contingent consideration liability related to the acquisition of Altek (Q4 2019 $4.1 million pre-tax; Full year 2019 $8.5 million pre-tax; Q4 2018 $3.4 million pretax; Full year 2018 $2.9 million pre-tax).  The Company adjusts Operating income and Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations to exclude the impact of the change in fair value to the acquisition-related contingent consideration liability for acquisitions because it believes that the adjustment for this item more closely correlates the reported financial measures with the ordinary and ongoing course of the Company's operations.
(c)	Fair value adjustment to contingent consideration liability acquired in conjunction with the acquisition of Clean Earth (Q4 and Full year 2019 $0.8 million pre-tax).

(h)	Harsco Environmental Segment site exit related (Full year 2019 $2.4 million pre-tax).
(i)	Harsco Environmental Segment adjustment to previously accrued amounts related to the disposal of certain slag material in Latin America (Full year 2018 $3.2 million pre-tax).

(l)	The Company recorded a benefit as a result of revaluing net deferred tax assets and liabilities as a result of U.S. tax reform (Q4 and Full year 2018 $15.4 million benefit).
(m)	Unusual items are tax-effected at the global effective tax rate, before discrete items, in effect at the time the unusual item is recorded, except for unusual items from countries where no tax benefit can be realized, in which case a zero percent tax rate is used.
(n)	Does not total due to rounding.

The Company’s management believes Adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is useful to investors because it provides an overall understanding of the Company’s historical and future prospects.  Exclusion of unusual items permits evaluation and comparison of results for the Company’s core business operations, and it is on this basis that management internally assesses the Company’s performance. Exclusion of acquisition-related intangible asset amortization expense, the amount of which can vary by the timing, size and nature of the Company’s acquisitions, facilitates more consistent internal comparisons of operating results over time between the Company’s newly acquired and long-held businesses, and comparisons with both acquisitive and non-acquisitive peer companies.  It is important to note that such intangible assets contribute to revenue generation and that intangible asset amortization related to past acquisitions will recur in future periods until such intangible assets have been fully amortized.  This measure should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, other information provided in accordance with GAAP.

(a)	Capital expenditures for strategic ventures represent the partner’s share of capital expenditures in certain ventures consolidated in the Company’s financial statements.
(b)	Asset sales are a normal part of the business model, primarily for the Harsco Environmental Segment.
(c)	Expenditures directly related to the Company's acquisition and divestiture transactions.

The Company's management believes that Free cash flow before growth capital expenditures, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is meaningful to investors because management reviews cash flows generated from operations less capital expenditures net of asset sales proceeds and transaction-related expenditures for planning and performance evaluation purposes. The Company’s management also believes that free cash flow before growth capital expenditures, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is meaningful to investors because management uses this as a key factor in the deployment of capital for strategic planning purposes. It is important to note that free cash flow and free cash flow before growth capital expenditures do not represent the total residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures since other non-discretionary expenditures, such as mandatory debt service requirements and settlements of foreign currency forward exchange contracts, are not deducted from these measures. These measures should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, other information provided in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA consists of net income from continuing operations adjusted to add back, income tax expense, net interest, defined benefit pension income and depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs); and excludes unusual items.  The Company‘s management believes Adjusted EBITDA is meaningful to investors because management reviews Adjusted EBITDA in assessing and evaluating performance. However, this measure should be considered in addition to, rather than as substitutes for net income from continuing operations and other information provided in accordance with GAAP. The Company's method of calculating Adjusted EBITDA may differ from methods used by other companies and, as a result, Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures disclosed by other companies.
