First Quarter 2024 Highlights:
- Record Operating Income of $75 Million, or $77 Million Excluding Special Items, a 23% Increase over Prior Year
- Strong Operating Margin of 14.1%, or 14.5% Excluding Special Items, a 290 bps Increase over Prior Year
- Record First Quarter Cash Flow from Operations of $56 Million
NEW YORK, April 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Minerals Technologies Inc. (NYSE: MTX) (“MTI” or “the Company”) today reported diluted earnings per share of $1.49 for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024, excluding special items. Reported diluted earnings per share were $1.44.
Worldwide net sales were $535 million, 2 percent higher sequentially and up slightly versus prior year on an underlying basis, excluding the deconsolidation of Barretts Minerals Inc. Underlying growth in the Consumer & Specialties segment offset lower sales in Engineered Solutions.
Operating income excluding special items was $77 million, a record for MTI, and represented 14.5 percent of sales.
Cash flow from operations was $56 million and free cash flow was $39 million. The Company repurchased $15 million of shares in the quarter and repaid $13 million of debt.
“We had a strong start to the year and delivered another record quarter. Growth in higher margin products and a strong operating performance across the company led to record operating income for MTI. This quarter demonstrates the power of our new organization, focused strategy, and robust business model. We continue to execute on our strategy and are on track to achieve our long-term growth and profitability targets,” said Douglas T. Dietrich, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
First Quarter 2024 Segment Results
Consumer & Specialties segment sales were $297 million in the first quarter, up 4 percent on an underlying basis.
Household & Personal Care sales were $138 million, up 7 percent from the prior year driven by continued strong demand for our cat litter products as well as growth in other high-margin consumer-oriented products. Sales of Specialty Additives were $159 million and grew 2 percent on an underlying basis.
Segment operating income was $42 million, a 30 percent improvement over the prior year as the segment leveraged volume growth, productivity improvements, and maintained its disciplined approach to pricing and cost control. Operating margin was 14.1 percent, a 330 basis point improvement over prior year.
The Consumer & Specialties segment provides technologically enhanced products to consumer-driven end markets, including mineral-to-market household products, as well as specialty additives that become functional components in a variety of consumer and industrial goods. This segment includes two product lines: Household & Personal Care and Specialty Additives.
Engineered Solutions segment sales were $238 million in the first quarter, down 5 percent from the prior year, primarily driven by slow commercial construction market conditions in North America that have persisted since the second quarter of 2023.
High-Temperature Technologies sales were $177 million, down slightly from the prior year. Environmental & Infrastructure sales were $60 million, 14 percent lower than the prior year due to a slow commercial construction market and two large remediation projects that were completed in the first quarter of 2023.
Segment operating income was $39 million, up 9 percent from the prior year, driven by strong operating performance in High-Temperature Technologies. Operating margin was very strong at 16.2 percent of sales, a 200 basis point improvement over prior year.
The Engineered Solutions segment provides advanced process technologies and solutions that are designed to improve our customers’ manufacturing processes and projects. This segment includes two product lines: High-Temperature Technologies and Environmental & Infrastructure.
