Co-CEOs’ Remarks
“We are proud of the perseverance of our organization throughout 2022, particularly as the year ended very different from where it began,” commented Jean-François Turgeon, co-chief executive officer. “The first half of 2022 began with considerable momentum while the second half was characterized by a significant market pullback starting in China, followed by Asia Pacific ex-China, EMEA and the Americas. Despite year-over-year fourth quarter volume declines of 34% for TiO2 and 44% for zircon, respectively, we were able to achieve full year 2022 Adjusted EBITDA of $875 million and Adjusted EBITDA margins in the mid-20s, while generating full year free cash flow of $170 million after investing $428 million in capital expenditures. These results were driven by prudent management of production and our cost structures to align with end customer demand, while remaining focused on our commercial pricing strategy. As we enter into 2023, we will maintain a relentless focus on sustainability and safety; continue to align production with customer demand and aggressively reduce costs; and manage our key capital projects without losing sight of the long-term benefits to Tronox including reducing our costs per ton. We also aim to generate strong free cash flow across a variety of economic scenarios.”
John D. Romano, co-chief executive officer added, “We remain well-positioned in the market given our differentiated, vertically integrated business model and the strength of our operations. Based on what we know today, we expect to see market demand continue to grow as we move throughout the coatings season. Compared to the fourth quarter, we expect that throughout 2023, EBITDA will continue to grow and margins will expand driven by growing sales volumes and lower costs as we start to see relief in input prices as well as improving operational efficiencies that will lead us to benefit from fixed cost leverage on growing production volumes, particularly in the second half. First quarter TiO2 sales volume levels are expected to increase sequentially in the low- to mid-teens on a percent basis, but will remain depressed relative to the first quarter of 2022, which was the strongest quarter of 2022. As we communicated in the fourth quarter, impacts from operational challenges at our site at KZN, South Africa from a fire and the historical flooding at the new Atlas Campaspe mine site in Australia drove higher than anticipated costs in the fourth quarter of 2022. We expect to see continued impacts from these events in the first quarter, namely on zircon tons available for sale and on the cost of ore from the new mine. As a result of these commercial dynamics and the hangover effect from the fourth quarter events, we expect first quarter 2023 Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $120 million to $130 million and Adjusted EBITDA margins to remain in the high teens. The impact to zircon production and our Australian ore costs is expected to improve within the first quarter, and we therefore anticipate a greater recovery to EBITDA as we move into the second and third quarters.”
Mr. Turgeon concluded, “We were able to reach an important milestone this month at Atlas Campaspe, as the heavy mineral concentrate being produced is now being trucked off the site using an alternate haul road, an exciting accomplishment given the significant impact of the late 2022 floods on our inability to use the original roadways. Although the benefits are delayed relative to our initial expectations as the primary roads remain under water, we are enthusiastic about the value this mine will bring to our operations and the improvement we will see to our bottom line from utilizing this feedstock beginning with our second quarter results. Navigating 2022 and, in particular, the challenges that arose late in the year would not have been possible without the commitment from our ~6,500 global employees whose swift action, focus and perseverance continue to allow us to deliver in the face of numerous external pressures, so we would like to extend a thank you to our Tronox team.”
Fourth Quarter 2022 Results
|
(Comparisons are to prior year (Q4 2022 vs. Q4 2021) unless otherwise noted) |
The Company reported fourth quarter revenue of $649 million, a decrease of 27%, primarily driven by lower sales volumes. Revenue from TiO2 sales was $478 million, a decrease of 29% driven by a 34% decrease in TiO2 volumes, partially offset by a 7% price increase on a US dollar basis and an unfavorable 2% impact from exchange rates. Sequentially, TiO2 volumes declined 28%, within the guided range, and average selling prices declined 1%.
Zircon revenue decreased 24% to $91 million, driven by a 44% decrease in volumes partially offset by a 20% increase in average selling prices. Sequentially, zircon volumes declined 30%, due to lower production as a result of the previously reported fourth quarter events that impacted tons available for sale, namely the fire at the mineral separation facility at KZN in South Africa and the historic flooding in Australia that delayed the commissioning of the Atlas Campaspe mine. Average selling prices increased 1% sequentially.
Revenue from other products was $80 million, which represented a 12% decrease, due primarily to lower pig iron volumes due to shipment timing.
Net loss attributable to Tronox of $15 million, or $0.09 loss per diluted share, compared to net income of $83 million, or $0.52 earnings per diluted share in the year-ago period. Excluding non-recurring adjustments totaling $12 million or $0.08 per diluted share, adjusted net loss attributable to Tronox (non-GAAP) was $27 million, or $0.17 loss per diluted share.
Adjusted EBITDA of $113 million decreased by 52% resulting in an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 17.4% for the fourth quarter. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA versus the prior year was driven primarily by higher production costs including freight rates and lower sales volumes, partially offset by improved selling prices across all products and favorable exchange rates.
Sequentially, Adjusted EBITDA declined 54% on lower sales volumes, higher production costs including freight rates and lower sales prices, partially offset by favorable exchange rates.
The Company’s selling, general and administrative expenses were $69 million in the quarter. Net interest expense was $30 million. Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense was $68 million.
Full Year 2022 Results
The Company reported full-year revenue of $3,454 million, a decrease of 3% year-over-year. Net income attributable to Tronox was $497 million, or $3.16 per diluted share. Excluding non-recurring adjustments totaling $186 million or $1.18 per diluted share, adjusted net income attributable to Tronox (non-GAAP) was $311 million or $1.98 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA of $875 million decreased 8% compared to $947 million in the prior year, while Adjusted EBITDA margin of 25.3% decreased 120 basis points compared to the prior year.
Balance Sheet, Cash Flow and Capital Allocation
Tronox reduced its total debt to $2.5 billion as of December 31, 2022. Net leverage at the end of 2022 was 2.8x. Available liquidity at the end of the quarter totaled $608 million, including $164 million in cash and cash equivalents and $444 million under existing revolving credit agreements.
Full year 2022 free cash flow totaled $170 million after $428 million in capital expenditures, including investments in key projects such as newTRON and Atlas Campaspe. These investments are expected to generate returns significantly above the Company’s cost of capital. As part of its capital allocation strategy, Tronox expects to continue to invest in cost reduction-, growth- and vertical integration-related projects.
In November 2021, Tronox’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $300 million of the Company’s ordinary shares through February 2024. As of December 31, 2022, there is ~$250 million remaining under the program. Tronox intends to allocate remaining free cash flow after capital expenditures and dividend payments towards continued debt reductions and opportunistic share repurchases.
Sustainability
In 2022, Tronox made significant strides on its environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) efforts. In June, the Company accelerated its carbon reduction targets to achieve a 35% reduction by 2025 and a 50% reduction by 2030, relative to its 2019 baseline. The Company remains committed to align with a global warming scenario of below 2o centigrade and to achieve a target of “net zero” greenhouse gas emissions and zero waste to external dedicated landfills by 2050 among other ESG-related commitments. In March, Tronox announced a significant renewable energy project in South Africa that is expected to lower worldwide scope 1 and 2 emissions by approximately 13%. In 2022, the Company added additional disclosures on climate related risks to align with TCFD and SASB standards. Additionally, the Company is continuing to explore ways to reduce waste and increase value from its mining business, including realizing increasing value from higher value co-product streams including rare earths minerals.
