Valvoline Inc. (NYSE: VVV), a global leader in vehicle care
powering the future of mobility through innovative services and
products, today reported financial results for its first fiscal
quarter ended December 31, 2021. All comparisons in this press
release are made to the same prior-year period unless otherwise
noted.
"Demand for Valvoline's products and services remains robust, as
we continue to gain share in both segments," said Sam Mitchell, CEO. "Our team has done an
outstanding job of helping to drive growth and meet demand, despite
significant supply chain challenges.
"Topline growth in both segments was impressive with a 36%
increase in sales for Retail Services and a 28% increase in sales
for Global Products, highlighting a strong start to the fiscal year
and a reflection of the health of both businesses. Retail Services
operating income and adjusted EBITDA increased 45% and 40%,
respectively, driven by topline growth and margin expansion. Global
Products delivered strong volume growth of 13% and ongoing progress
in price pass-through of raw material cost increases. Price-cost
lag impacted profitability, which declined year-over-year. As we
have done in the past, we expect to continue to pass-through
pricing to recover our costs."
Mitchell continued, "Our results this quarter demonstrate that
our business continues to perform well and highlight the
independent strengths of both segments, as we make progress on the
separation of these two strong businesses."

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
- Total debt of approximately $1.7
billion and net debt of approximately $1.5 billion
- Cash flow from operations of $32
million and free cash flow of $(3)
million
- Returned $31 million of cash to
shareholders via share repurchases and $23
million via dividends
Outlook
"We are making good progress on separation-related work, and we
remain focused on the performance of the business and delivering
results," Mitchell said. "We are reaffirming our guidance,
including exceptional topline growth and solid improvement in
adjusted EBITDA. We continue to be pleased with strong demand in
Global Products, as we navigate short-term supply-chain challenges.
Retail Services topline performance remains strong as our algorithm
of same-store sales growth and unit additions continues to deliver.
We do expect our same-store sales to moderate as we compare against
strong comps in the prior year.
"As we did in Q1, we will continue to return cash to
shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. We believe
that the separation of our two businesses will enhance value for
all of our stakeholders and expect to have more information to
share in the coming months."

Valvoline's outlook for adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EPS and the
adjusted effective tax rate are non-GAAP financial measures that
are expected to be adjusted for items impacting comparability.
Valvoline is unable to reconcile these forward-looking non-GAAP
financial measures to the comparable GAAP measures estimated for
fiscal 2022 without unreasonable efforts, as the Company is
currently unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty
the type and extent of certain items that would be expected to
impact these GAAP measures in fiscal 2022 but would not impact
non-GAAP adjusted results.
Conference Call Webcast
Valvoline will host a live audio webcast of its fiscal first
quarter 2022 conference call at 9 a.m. ET on Wednesday,
February 9, 2022. The webcast and supporting materials will be
accessible through Valvoline's website at
http://investors.valvoline.com. Following the live event, an
archived version of the webcast and supporting materials will be
available.
Key Business Measures
Valvoline tracks its operating performance and manages its
business using certain key measures, including system-wide,
company-operated and franchised store counts and SSS; system-wide
store sales; and lubricant volumes sold. Management believes these
measures are useful to evaluating and understanding Valvoline's
operating performance and should be considered as supplements to,
not substitutes for, Valvoline's sales and operating income, as
determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Sales in the Retail Services reportable segment are influenced
by the number of service center stores and the business performance
of those stores. Stores are considered open upon acquisition or
opening for business. Temporary store closings remain in the
respective store counts with only permanent store closures
reflected in the activity and end of period store counts. SSS is
defined as sales by U.S. Retail Services stores (company-operated,
franchised and the combination of these for system-wide SSS), with
new stores, including franchised conversions, excluded from the
metric until the completion of their first full fiscal year in
operation as this period is generally required for new store sales
levels to begin to normalize.
Retail Services sales are limited to sales at company-operated
stores, sales of lubricants and other products to independent
franchisees and Express Care operators and royalties and other fees
from franchised stores. Although Valvoline does not recognize
store-level sales from franchised stores as sales in its Statements
of Consolidated Income, management believes system-wide and
franchised SSS comparisons, store counts, and total system-wide
store sales are useful to assess market position relative to
competitors and overall store and segment operating
performance.
Management believes lubricant volumes sold in gallons by its
consolidated subsidiaries is a useful measure in evaluating and
understanding the operating performance of the Global Products
segment. Volumes sold in other units of measure, including liters,
are converted to gallons utilizing standard conversions.
Use of Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with
U.S. GAAP, certain items within this press release are presented on
an adjusted basis. These non-GAAP measures, presented on both a
consolidated and operating segment basis, have limitations as
analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation from, or
as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, the financial
results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The financial
results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and the
reconciliations of non-GAAP measures should be carefully evaluated.
The non-GAAP information used by management may not be comparable
to similar measures disclosed by other companies, because of
differing methods used in calculating such measures.
This press release includes the following non-GAAP measures:
segment adjusted operating income, consolidated EBITDA,
consolidated and segment adjusted EBITDA, consolidated adjusted net
income and earnings per share, consolidated free cash flow, and
consolidated and segment discretionary free cash flow. Refer to
Tables 4-5 and 7-9 for management's definition of each non-GAAP
measure and reconciliation to the most comparable U.S. GAAP
measure.
Management believes the use of non-GAAP measures on a
consolidated and operating segment basis provides a useful
supplemental presentation of Valvoline's operating performance and
allows for transparency with respect to key metrics used by
management in operating the business and measuring performance.
Management believes EBITDA measures provide a meaningful
supplemental presentation of Valvoline's operating performance
between periods on a comparable basis due to the depreciable assets
associated with the nature of the Company's operations, and income
tax and interest costs related to Valvoline's tax and capital
structures, respectively.
Adjusted profitability measures enable comparison of financial
trends and results between periods where certain items may vary
independent of business performance. These adjusted measures
exclude the impact of certain unusual, infrequent or
non-operational activity not directly attributable to the
underlying business, which management believes impacts the
comparability of operational results between periods ("key items").
Key items are often related to legacy matters or market-driven
events considered by management to not be reflective of the ongoing
operating performance. Key items may consist of adjustments related
to: legacy businesses, including the separation from Valvoline's
former parent company and associated impacts of related
indemnities; the separation of Valvoline's businesses; significant
acquisitions or divestitures; restructuring-related matters; tax
reform legislation; debt extinguishment and modification costs; and
other matters that are non-operational or unusual in nature,
including the following:
- Net pension and other postretirement plan expense/income -
includes several elements impacted by changes in plan assets and
obligations that are primarily driven by changes in the debt and
equity markets, as well as those that are predominantly legacy in
nature and related to prior service to the Company from employees
(e.g., retirees, former employees and current employees with frozen
benefits). These elements include (i) interest cost, (ii) expected
return on plan assets, (iii) actuarial gains/losses, and (iv)
amortization of prior service cost/credit. Significant factors that
can contribute to changes in these elements include changes in
discount rates used to remeasure pension and other postretirement
obligations on an annual basis or upon a qualifying remeasurement,
differences between actual and expected returns on plan assets, and
other changes in actuarial assumptions, such as the life expectancy
of plan participants. Accordingly, management considers that these
elements may be more reflective of changes in current conditions in
global financial markets (in particular, interest rates), outside
the operational performance of the business, and are also primarily
legacy amounts that are not directly related to the underlying
business and do not have an immediate, corresponding impact on the
compensation and benefits provided to eligible employees for
current service. Adjusted profitability measures include the costs
of benefits provided to employees for current service, including
pension and other postretirement service costs.
- Changes in the last-in, first out (LIFO) inventory reserve -
charges or credits recognized in Cost of sales to value certain
lubricant inventories at the lower of cost or market using the LIFO
method. During inflationary or deflationary pricing environments,
the application of LIFO can result in variability of the cost of
sales recognized each period as the most recent costs are matched
against current sales, while preceding costs are retained in
inventories. LIFO adjustments are determined based on published
prices, which are difficult to predict and largely dependent on
future events. The application of LIFO can impact comparability and
enhance the lag period effects between changes in inventory costs
and related pricing adjustments.
Management uses free cash flow and discretionary free cash flow
as additional non-GAAP metrics of cash flow generation. By
including capital expenditures and certain other adjustments, as
applicable, management is able to provide an indication of the
ongoing cash being generated that is ultimately available for both
debt and equity holders as well as other investment opportunities.
Free cash flow includes the impact of capital expenditures,
providing a supplemental view of cash generation. Discretionary
free cash flow includes maintenance capital expenditures, which are
routine uses of cash that are necessary to maintain the Company's
operations and provides a supplemental view of cash flow generation
to maintain operations before discretionary investments in growth.
Free cash flow and discretionary free cash flow have certain
limitations, including that they do not reflect adjustments for
certain non-discretionary cash flows, such as mandatory debt
repayments.
