Tronox Reports Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results
Oct 26, 2022 - Press Releases
Continued strong margin performance enabled by vertically integrated portfolio despite difficult market conditions
STAMFORD, Conn., Oct. 26, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Tronox Holdings plc (NYSE:TROX) (“Tronox” or the “Company”), the world’s leading integrated manufacturer of titanium dioxide (“TiO2“) pigment, today reported its financial results for the quarter ending September 30, 2022, as follows:
Third Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights:
- Produced revenue of $895 million, an increase of 3% compared to the prior year, driven by higher TiO2, zircon and pig iron prices and higher pig iron volumes
- Generated income from operations of $163 million and net income of $123 million
- Achieved GAAP diluted EPS of $0.77; adjusted diluted EPS of $0.69 (non-GAAP) primarily due to an Australian valuation allowance adjustment of $0.10
- Delivered Adjusted EBITDA of $247 million and an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 27.6%
- Invested $112 million in capital expenditures, primarily in our vertical integration and newTRON initiatives
- Generated free cash flow of $25 million in the quarter
- Returned $110 million to shareholders in the nine months ending September 30, 2022 in the form of share repurchases and dividends
Outlook
- Q4 2022 Adjusted EBITDA expected to be $140-$170 million, assuming TiO2 volumes decline 25-30% sequentially driven by customer destocking in the fourth quarter and one-time cost impacts due to reduced production as a result of lower customer demand
- Full year 2022 free cash flow expected to be greater than $150 million
This outlook is based on Tronox’s views on current global economic activity and is subject to changes and impacts associated with the macroeconomic conditions, global supply chain, and inflation-related challenges, among others.
Note: For the Company’s guidance with respect to fourth quarter 2022 and full year 2022 non-GAAP measures, we are not able to provide without unreasonable effort the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, or reconciliation to such GAAP financial measure, because certain items that impact such measures are uncertain, out of the Company’s control or cannot be reasonably predicted.

Co-CEOs’ Remarks
“Despite a significant reduction in demand in Europe, Middle East, Africa and Asia Pacific, we generated a gross profit margin of 25.9% and an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 27.6% against a backdrop of continuing cost pressures,” commented John D. Romano, co-chief executive officer. “Tronox’s third quarter financial results are a demonstration of the strength of our vertically integrated portfolio and transformed business model. Pricing across all products continued to increase, as a result of the execution against our commercial strategy. I am proud of the Tronox team’s ability to deliver against the fast-changing backdrop and continued challenges through which we are navigating the Company.”
Mr. Romano continued, “Looking to the remainder of the year, we expect fourth quarter pigment demand to decline 25% to 30% sequentially, driven by customer destocking, continued weakness in Europe, Middle East, Africa, and Asia Pacific, and seasonal weakness in North America. We believe customer inventory levels remain low relative to previous periods of economic weakness, so we do not believe we will see similar levels of destocking as we move into 2023.”
Jean-François Turgeon, co-chief executive officer, added, “We continue to be laser-focused on cost reductions and have a number of levers to optimize performance across a variety of scenarios on which we are executing. As we have highlighted previously, vertical integration investments and newTRON are key projects to support our medium- and long-term profitable growth initiatives. However, we have implemented plans to significantly reduce our annual capital spend to below $275 million in 2023 to adapt to the macroeconomic environment as it unfolds. Softening demand drove increased TiO2 inventory levels in the third quarter, and allowed us to replenish our safety stocks, which have been below seasonal normal levels for the last several quarters. As a result, we have taken actions to reduce production levels in the fourth quarter due to lower customer demand. We will continue to balance cash generation while ensuring we have the product necessary to meet our customers’ needs and are effectively positioning Tronox for future success.”
Third Quarter 2022 Results
(Comparisons are to prior year (Q3 2022 vs. Q3 2021) unless otherwise noted)
The Company recorded third quarter revenue of $895 million, an increase of 3%, driven by higher zircon and other product sales. Revenue from TiO2 sales was $673 million, a decline of 1% driven by a 12% decline in volumes, partially offset by a 15% increase in average selling prices on a local currency basis, or an 11% increase on a US dollar basis. Sequentially, TiO2 volumes decreased 13%, driven primarily by lower volumes in Europe, Middle East, Africa and Asia Pacific, partially offset by a 3% increase in average selling prices on a local currency basis, or 1% on a US dollar basis.
Zircon revenue increased 10% to $128 million driven by a 33% increase in average selling prices, partially offset by a 23% decline in volumes. The year-over-year volume decline was due to higher sales from inventory in 2021. Sequentially, zircon revenue increased 15%, driven by an 8% increase in volumes and a 7% increase in average selling prices.
Revenue from other products was $94 million, an increase of 31% year-over-year and 45% sequentially, primarily driven by higher pig iron volumes and average selling prices.
Net income attributable to Tronox in the quarter of $121 million included non-recurring items, primarily the Australian tax valuation allowance adjustment of $16 million. Non-recurring adjustments totaled $13 million or $0.07 per diluted share. Excluding these items, adjusted net income attributable to Tronox (non-GAAP) was $108 million, or $0.69 per diluted share.
Adjusted EBITDA of $247 million represented a 2% decrease driven by higher costs to serve our customers, including increased commodity costs and higher freight costs, as well as lower volumes, partially offset by higher pricing across all products and favorable exchange rates. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 27.6% for the quarter.
Sequentially, Adjusted EBITDA decreased 10% due to higher costs to serve our customers, including increased commodity costs, as well as lower TiO2 volumes, partially offset by higher pricing across all products, favorable exchange rates, and higher zircon and other product volumes.
The Company’s selling, general and administrative expenses were $69 million in the quarter, a decrease of 9%. Tronox’s third quarter net interest expense was $30 million, a 17% decrease due to lower debt levels compared to the prior year. Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense was $66 million.
Balance Sheet, Cash Flow and Capital Allocation
Tronox ended the quarter with $2.6 billion of total debt and a net leverage ratio of 2.5x. Available liquidity at the end of the quarter totaled $486 million, including $91 million in cash and cash equivalents and $395 million available under revolving credit agreements. There are no significant debt maturities until 2028 and no financial covenants on the Company’s term loans or bonds.
Free cash flow for the third quarter was $25 million. Third quarter capital expenditures were $112 million, including investments in key capital projects such as newTRON, the Company’s global business transformation project to improve, automate, and digitize, and Atlas Campaspe, the mining development project in Eastern Australia that will sustain Tronox’s internalization of feedstocks and associated cost advantages and provide additional zircon supply. These investments are expected to generate returns significantly above the Company’s cost of capital and sustain Tronox’s position as a leading low-cost producer.
For the nine months ending September 30, 2022, the Company returned $110 million to shareholders through the repurchase of approximately 2.8 million shares at an average price of $17.38 per share and the payment of $60 million in dividends.
Sustainability
Included in Tronox’s feedstock and other product category are revenues from materials which were previously stockpiled as waste. This includes monazite consisting of high value rare earth elements, which have a high margin. The demand for the light rare earth elements found in monazite is increasing dramatically given their use in many facets of the emerging green economy including permanent magnets for electric vehicle (“EV”) motors and wind turbines. While revenue for these co-product streams is less than $30 million year-to-date, the rising interest has driven a 74% increase in high value co-products revenues year-over-year, enabling Tronox to realize greater value from what was previously viewed as waste. “The increasing interest by EV manufacturers in monazite and other rare earth materials found in our mines provides an opportunity for Tronox to not only generate incremental earnings, but also support growth in the renewable energy space,” commented Mr. Romano. “We will continue to evaluate opportunities to leverage our expertise in mining and the exposure we have to rare earths through our operations.”
Q4 and Full Year 2022 Outlook
- Q4 2022 Adjusted EBITDA expected to be $140-$170 million, assuming TiO2 volumes decline 25-30% sequentially driven by customer destocking in the fourth quarter and one-time cost impacts due to reduced production as a result of lower customer demand
- Full year 2022:
- Adjusted EBITDA of $902-932 million
- Adjusted diluted EPS of $2.29-2.421
- Free cash flow expected to be greater than $150 million
1Assumes a Q4 corporate effective tax rate of approximately 28%, which may vary depending on jurisdiction of earnings and tax assets.
Mr. Turgeon concluded, “John and I have over 65 years of combined experience in this industry and can confidently say that our business has never been stronger in previous periods of macroeconomic challenges than it is today. Our vertically integrated portfolio provides a cost advantage that is a differentiator for Tronox and provides us with the flexibility to ensure sufficient liquidity under a variety of scenarios. We remain focused on executing the strategy we detailed at Investor Day and delivering on our commitments. We will continue to demonstrate the value of our vertically integrated business model by delivering safe, quality, low-cost, sustainable tons for our customers.”
