IFF Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2009 Results
For the full year, the Company reported revenue of $2.3 billion, a three percent decrease over the prior year. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, revenue in local currency remained constant. Reported EPS for the year was $2.46, compared to $2.86 for the full year 2008. EPS in 2009 included an expense of $0.23 per share related to restructuring charges and employee separation costs, while 2008 included a benefit of $0.10 per share associated with an insurance recovery and benefits from prior period tax settlements, net of restructuring charges, employee separation costs and shared services implementation costs. Excluding these items, adjusted EPS for the full year 2009 decreased three percent to $2.69 versus $2.76 in the prior year, as strong second half performance substantially minimized the impact of first half weakness.
"Given the economic challenges we faced over the course of the year, we are very pleased with how we finished 2009," said Kevin Berryman, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. "The combination of focused strategies, disciplined cost control, and prudent working capital management enabled us to build sales, earnings and cash flow momentum in the second half of the year. We took important steps to strengthen our product portfolio, enhance our geographic growth opportunities and optimize our manufacturing and supply chain footprint to further reinforce our competitive position."
"As our strategic initiatives continue to gain traction and we adapt to an ever changing economy, we believe that we are well-positioned to return to local currency sales growth and improve on our overall profitability in 2010," Berryman continued.
FOURTH QUARTER 2009
Flavor Business Unit
Local currency sales in the fourth quarter increased one percent over the comparable 2008 period. Growth can be attributed to a solid performance in Greater Asia as higher volumes and new wins in Beverage and Dairy drove results. In the developed markets, a strong performance in Beverage was more than offset by weakness in Confectionery and Savory in Europe and Dairy in North America. Similar to the third quarter 2009, sales in Latin America were mixed, as the loss of non-strategic business continued to impact results.
Operating profit increased by $13 million to $46 million including a $1 million charge related to restructuring efforts in Europe. Excluding this charge and $3 million related to restructuring costs in the prior year period, adjusted operating profit was very strong, increasing 34 percent, or $12 million, to $47 million. This increase was mainly driven by continued success in margin improvement initiatives and disciplined cost management. As a result, adjusted operating profit margin improved to 17.4 percent versus 14.0 percent in the prior year period.
Fragrance Business Unit
Local currency sales in the fourth quarter increased four percent versus the comparable quarter last year. Overall growth was attributed to strong emerging market performance, particularly Greater Asia and Latin America, as new wins and increased demand from both global and regional customers continued to drive results. In the Fine Fragrance and Beauty Care category, Beauty Care grew double-digits while Fine Fragrance trends continued to improve. Fine Fragrance results, while improved, remained under pressure as weakness in the developed markets continued to impact performance. Functional Fragrance continued to perform well as new wins in Fabric Care and Personal Wash drove strong results. Fragrance Ingredients sales also improved, as local currency sales increased seven percent, driven by an underlying improvement in demand.
Operating profit increased by $7 million to $49 million in the fourth quarter, including a $3 million charge related to ongoing restructuring efforts in Europe as compared to $2 million related to restructuring costs in the prior year period. Excluding these charges, adjusted operating profit increased by 19 percent or $8 million to $51 million driven by incremental R&D credits of $6 million. As a result, adjusted operating profit margin for the quarter increased 130 bps to 16.3 percent, as higher R&D credits, higher pricing, and continued margin improvement initiatives offset unfavorable mix, higher input costs and higher incentive compensation expense.

Europe, Africa and Middle East
Fourth Quarter 2009 Highlights
- Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, was 40.3 percent compared with 39.8 percent in the prior year period. This improvement was mainly attributable to higher pricing, margin improvement initiatives and moderating input costs.
- Research, Selling and Administrative (RSA) expenses decreased $3 million year-over-year reflecting incremental R&D credits, benefits of previously announced restructurings and continued cost management discipline. Excluding the impact of currency, RSA costs were down $9 million year-over-year.
- Interest expense decreased $5 million year-over-year principally due to the termination of cross-currency interest rate swaps and lower borrowing costs.
- The effective tax rate in the quarter was 33.3 percent compared to (23.7) percent in the comparable period last year. The year-over-year increase mainly reflects a $17 million reduction in tax expense during 2008 related to prior period tax settlements, $4 million of tax expense in 2009 due to the recognition of out-of-period tax adjustments, plus a higher cost of repatriation of foreign earnings and the mix of earnings by country in which we operate.
FULL YEAR 2009
Flavor Business Unit
On a local currency basis, Flavor sales for 2009 increased two percent over the prior year. Greater Asia, Latin American and North America delivered solid growth resulting from new wins and price increases that more than offset weak economic conditions. Local currency sales in Europe remained constant as the economic slowdown and inventory reductions by our customers impacted our results.
Operating profit increased by $10 million to $208 million including a $1 million charge related to restructuring efforts in Europe. Excluding this charge and $4 million related to restructuring costs in the prior year, adjusted operating profit increased $8 million as pricing,ongoing cost discipline and margin improvement initiatives more than offset higher input costs and unfavorable currency parity. As a result, adjusted operating profit margin improved 90 bps to 19.3 percent.
Fragrance Business Unit
In 2009, local currency sales declined one percent year-over-year as the strong second half performance partially offset first half weakness. Fine Fragrance and Beauty Care local currency sales declined eight percent as a result of sharp declines in retail consumption as well as supply chain contraction in North America and Europe in the Fine Fragrance business. Fragrance Ingredients local currency sales also fell two percent primarily due to erosion in the Fine Fragrance category and customer de-stocking in the first half of the year. While Fine Fragrance and Fragrance Ingredients sales experienced weakness in 2009, trends improved in the second half, supported by Fragrance Ingredients sales returning to positive growth in the second half of 2009. Functional Fragrance performance consistently improved over the previous three quarters, finishing with five percent local currency growth globally as new wins in the Fabric Care and Personal Wash categories led results. Beauty Care also improved over the previous three quarters, as a strong performance in Hair Care and Toiletries in the emerging markets drove results.
Operating profit decreased by $32 million to $171 million, including an $18 million charge related to restructuring charges. Excluding this charge and $4 million related to restructuring costs in the prior year, adjusted operating profit declined $18 million as a result of unfavorable volume and mix, higher input costs and negative currency impacts that were partially offset by an additional benefit of $8 million related to incremental R&D credits, price increases, and margin improvement initiatives. As a result, adjusted operating profit margin declined 80 bps to 15.1 percent over the comparable year period.

Full Year 2009 Highlights
- Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, decreased 40 bps to 40.2 percent as higher pricing and margin initiatives were more than offset by unfavorable currency impacts, higher input cost and weak Fine Fragrance sales.
- RSA expenses decreased $21 million year-over-year including a $6 million charge related to employee separation costs in 2009. Excluding these costs and a $3 million charge in 2008 resulting from employee separations costs netted against an insurance recovery, adjusted RSA declined $24 million year-over-year. This performance was driven by incremental R&D credits, ongoing cost reduction efforts, and the effects of a stronger U.S. dollar. Within RSA, R&D expense as a percentage of sales decreased 50 bps to 8.3 percent reflecting higher R&D related credits, a more focused approach to investments and strict cost control.
- Interest expense decreased $12 million year-over-year principally due to the elimination of cross-currency interest rate swaps, lower borrowing costs and lower debt levels.
- The effective tax rate for 2009 was 29.3 percent compared to 19.1 percent during 2008. The higher effective rate for 2009 is principally attributable to a net reduction, year-over-year, of $21 million pertaining to prior period tax settlements, $6 million of tax expense in 2009 related to the recognition of out-of-period tax adjustments, $3 million of higher repatriation costs.
- Cash flow from operations improved by $71 million to $292 million for the full year 2009 compared to $221 million during 2008. The improvement in operating cash flows was led by a reduction in inventories combined with better operating discipline over receivables and payables. The improvement in working capital more than offset a $34 million decrease in net income that was driven by the weakness in the first half of the year. As a result of our strong cash flow generation, we reduced outstanding debt by approximately $240 million, $150 million of which was an early repayment of our Japanese term loan.

The sum of EPS Reported, plus the per share effects of items added back to reconcile to EPS as Adjusted, may not equal the total EPS as Adjusted, due to rounding differences.
This supplemental schedule provides adjusted non-GAAP financial information and a quantitative reconciliation of the difference between the non-GAAP financial measure and the financial measure calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP.
These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that it is meaningful for investors to be made aware of and to be assisted in a better understanding of, on a period to period comparative basis, the relative impact of restructuring and employee separation charges, an insurance recovery related to a product contamination issue, shared services' implementation costs, and the benefit of tax rulings relating to prior years. The adjusted information is intended to be more indicative of the Company's core operating results.
At times, the Company may disclose free cash flow because the Company believes it is a measurement of cash flow that may be available for investing and financing activities. We define free cash flow as net cash provided from operations less capital expenditures and cash dividends. The calculation of free cash flow does not reflect the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures since non-discretionary items such as debt repayments are not deducted in determining such measure and as such, should not be considered a substitute for cash provided by operating activities or other cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Free cash flow, as we define it, may differ from similarly named measures used by other entities.
