Explanatory Note
On February 8, 2023, International Flavors and Fragrances, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year 2022. A copy of the press release was furnished with a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 8, 2023 (the “Original Form 8-K”).
This amendment to Original Form 8-K (“Amendment No. 1”) is being filed solely to reflect the adjustments made by the Company while finalizing its financial statements for inclusion in its annual report on Form 10-K, which are largely related to the Company’s divestiture activities as described below.
Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition
The Company is filing this Amendment No. 1 to the Original Form 8-K, including the Press Release, that was furnished as Exhibit 99.1 thereto announcing results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2022 (the “Original Press Release”). Attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Amendment No.1 is an updated “Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Income”, “Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets”, “Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows”, “Reconciliation of Net (Loss) Income and EPS”, and “Reconciliation of Adjusted (Non-GAAP) EPS ex. Amortization” (collectively the “Updated Financial Information”). The following is a summary of the adjustments.
The Company recorded adjustments to its “Provision for income taxes” on the “Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Income”, which resulted in an additional $28 million of expense for both the fourth quarter of and fiscal year 2022. These adjustments resulted in changes to “Other current liabilities” and “Non-current liabilities” on the “Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets” with a net impact of the same amount. Additionally, these items impacted the “Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows” to adjust the “Net (loss) income” with no change to “Net cash provided by operating activities”.
Additionally, the Company adjusted its “Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash” on the “Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows” to reflect the “cash and cash equivalents” included in “Assets held for sale” which is in “Other current assets” on the “Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets”. This resulted in an increase of $52 million in “Net cash provided by operating activities” and an increase of $52 million in “Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at end of year” for December 31, 2022.
The Company also made certain reclassifications on its “Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets” and “Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows”.
The Company has updated its Financial Information to reflect the above items.
The Updated Financial Information is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K/A and is incorporated herein by reference. The information contained in Item 2.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K/A, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, and shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any of the Company’s filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
