Berry Global Group, Inc. (NYSE:BERY), a leading supplier of sustainable packaging solutions for consumer goods and industrial products, today reported its fourth quarter and fiscal year 2022 results, referred to in the following as the September 2022 quarter and fiscal 2022.
Berry’s Chairman and CEO Tom Salmon said, “Our businesses delivered fiscal year record results, including 10% revenue growth and 7% adjusted earnings per share growth, coming off of another record year in fiscal 2021. Over the past few years we have seen persistent inflation and have taken proactive pricing actions while investing in cost reduction efforts. I am also proud of the teams’ efforts enabling us to generate another year of substantial free cash flow, ending the year with $876 million, allowing us to return $709 million to shareholders via share repurchases taking in 9% of our total shares outstanding. Additionally, our Board of Directors’ authorization of both a new quarterly cash dividend and increasing our share repurchase authorization underscores our commitment to enhancing long-term shareholder value. We believe our shares are significantly undervalued and the increased authorization reflects our confidence in the outlook of our business, our long-term strategy, and the strength of our operating model and cash flows.
“In both the near- and long-term, we remain focused on driving consistent, dependable, and sustainable growth, supported by our robust free cash flow and accompanied by our large-scale and diverse portfolio. Innovation and sustainability are increasingly embedded in everything we do and we continue to believe this represents a great opportunity for both growth and differentiation. As we navigate through fiscal 2023, we will continue our efforts on inflation recovery while taking the necessary actions to drive cost benefits through automation and asset optimization across our global footprint.”

September 2022 Quarter
Consolidated Overview
Net sales were flat as a 2% organic volume decline was partially offset by increased selling prices of 2% due to the pass through of inflation.
The operating income increase of 8% is primarily attributed to a $58 million favorable impact from price cost spread, partially offset by modestly softer customer demand.
Consumer Packaging - International
The net sales growth of 8% is primarily attributed to increased selling prices due to the pass through of inflation.
Operating income was essentially flat as a $17 million favorable impact from price recovery was offset by an unfavorable impact from foreign currency changes.
Consumer Packaging - North America
Net sales were modestly higher as increased selling prices offset essentially flat demand.
The operating income increase of 60% is primarily attributed to a $38 million favorable impact from price recovery along with $7 million decrease in depreciation and amortization.
Health, Hygiene, & Specialties
Net sales were down by 6% as a result of the pass through of lower selling prices.
The operating income decrease is primarily attributed to a $31 million negative impact from the timing lag of recovering inflation.
Engineered Materials
The net sales decline of 7% was primarily attributed to our concerted effort to improve our sales mix to higher value products which had a negative impact on demand.
The operating income increase of 30% is primarily attributed to the recovery of inflation and our improved sales mix to higher value products partially offset by softer customer demand and our concerted effort to improve our sales mix to higher value products.
Fiscal Year
Consolidated Overview
The net sales growth is primarily attributed to increased selling prices of $1,650 million due to the pass through of inflation, partially offset by a $420 million unfavorable impact from foreign currency, a 2% organic volume decline, a $131 million decrease from extra shipping days in fiscal 2021, and fiscal 2021 divestiture sales of $118 million.
The operating income decrease is primarily attributed to a $32 million unfavorable impact from foreign currency, a $49 million decrease from the organic volume decline, a $22 million decrease from extra shipping days in fiscal 2021, and fiscal 2021 divestiture operating income of $16 million. These decreases are partially offset by a $36 million decrease in business integration expense and a $30 million favorable impact from price cost spread and product mix.
Consumer Packaging - International
The net sales growth is primarily attributed to increased selling prices of $498 million due to the pass through of inflation, partially offset by a $299 million unfavorable impact from foreign currency and fiscal 2021 divestiture sales of $84 million.
The operating income increase is primarily attributed to a $46 million decrease in business integration activities, a $26 million favorable impact from price cost spread. These increases were partially offset by a $24 million impact from foreign currency, and fiscal 2021 divestiture operating income of $10 million.
Consumer Packaging - North America
The net sales growth is primarily attributed to increased selling prices of $470 million due to the pass through of inflation, partially offset by a $40 million decrease from extra shipping days in fiscal 2021.

The volume decline is primarily attributed to the moderation of advantaged products related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The operating income decrease is primarily attributed to a $138 million unfavorable impact from price cost spread and negative product mix, a $14 million decline from the volume decline, and extra shipping days in fiscal 2021.
Engineered Materials

The organic volume decline is primarily attributed to our concerted effort to improve our sales mix, along with general market softness and supply chain disruptions.

Capital Allocation
Today, Berry announced the initiation of a quarterly cash dividend on its common stock and increased the capacity available under the Company’s existing stock repurchase program to $1.0 billion. The Board of Directors authorized the first quarterly cash dividend of $0.25 per share of the Company’s common stock, to be paid on December 15, 2022, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on December 1, 2022.
Berry repurchased 12.2 million shares (9% of outstanding shares) during fiscal year 2022, for a total cost of $709 million. The Company announced that its Board of Directors has authorized an additional $700 million allocation to its existing share repurchase program, resulting in more than $1 billion of available capacity under the program. The Company expects to return over $700 million through share repurchases and dividends in fiscal 2023. The return of capital reflects the continued execution of the Company’s opportunistic capital allocation strategy, which includes funding organic growth projects, share repurchases, dividends, debt pay down, divestitures, and strategic bolt-on acquisitions. Furthermore, we ended the fiscal year with net debt to adjusted EBITDA of 3.7x, the lowest we have been as a publicly traded company, and a one-tenth reduction from the beginning of the fiscal year while returning over $700 million to our shareholders via strategic share repurchases.
Fiscal Year 2023 Outlook
|
Fiscal 2023 |
|
Adjusted earnings per diluted share |
$7.30-$7.80 |
|
Free cash flow |
$800-$900 million |
|
Berry expects fiscal 2023 adjusted earnings per share to be in the range of $7.30 to $7.80. This guidance assumes a range of $2.05 billion to $2.15 billion of operating EBITDA, an effective tax rate of 23%, full year depreciation expense of $550 million, and interest expense of $350 million. The guidance also factors in foreign currency and resin rates as of the end of the October 2022. Capital expenditures are expected to be $600 million. We anticipate the cadence of earnings and cash flow in fiscal 2023, to be very similar to fiscal 2022, as we continue to implement our price recovery efforts, drive cost efficiencies, and onboard organic growth investments. To the extent customer demand softens, we feel very confident in our ability to continue inflation recovery while driving cost reduction efforts to improve efficiencies and optimize our global assets. The Company expects $600 million or more of our cash flow to be allocated towards share repurchases.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Estimates
This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures such as Operating EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income, Adjusted earnings per share, free cash flow, and comparable basis net sales, and adjusted EPS. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to comparable measures determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) is set forth at the end of this press release. Information reconciling forward-looking Operating EBITDA is not provided because such information is not available without unreasonable effort due to the high variability, complexity, and low visibility with respect to certain items, including debt refinancing activity or other non-comparable items. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to our results computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our estimates of the impact of COVID-19 are based on product mix and prior internal sales estimates compared to actual sales.
Forward Looking Statements
Statements in this release that are not historical, including statements relating to the expected future performance of the Company, are considered “forward looking” within the meaning of the federal securities laws and are presented pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “projects,” “outlook,” “anticipates” or “looking forward,” or similar expressions that relate to our strategy, plans, intentions, or expectations. All statements we make relating to our estimated and projected earnings, margins, costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates, and financial results or to our expectations regarding future industry trends are forward-looking statements. In addition, we, through our senior management, from time to time make forward-looking public statements concerning our expected future operations and performance and other developments.
Our actual results may differ materially from those that we expected due to a variety of factors, including without limitation: (1) risks associated with our substantial indebtedness and debt service; (2) changes in prices and availability of resin and other raw materials and our ability to pass on changes in raw material prices to our customers on a timely basis; (3) risks related to acquisitions or divestitures and integration of acquired businesses and their operations, and realization of anticipated cost savings and synergies; (4) risks related to international business, including transactional and translational foreign currency exchange rate risk and the risks of compliance with applicable export controls, sanctions, anti-corruption laws and regulations; (5) increases in the cost of compliance with laws and regulations, including environmental, safety, and climate change laws and regulations; (6) labor issues, including the potential labor shortages, shutdowns or strikes, or the failure to renew effective bargaining agreements; (7) risks related to disruptions in the overall global economy, persistent inflation, supply chain disruptions, and the financial markets that may adversely impact our business, including as a result of the Russia-Ukraine conflict; (8) risk of catastrophic loss of one of our key manufacturing facilities, natural disasters, and other unplanned business interruptions; (9) risks related to weather-related events and longer-term climate change patterns; (10) risks related to the failure of, inadequacy of, or attacks on our information technology systems and infrastructure; (11) risks that our restructuring programs may entail greater implementation costs or result in lower cost savings than anticipated; (12) risks related to future write-offs of substantial goodwill; (13) risks of competition, including foreign competition, in our existing and future markets; (14) risks related to market conditions associated with our share repurchase program; (15) risks related to market disruptions and increased market volatility as a result of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine; and (16) the other factors discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We caution you that the foregoing list of important factors may not contain all of the material factors that are important to you.

(1) |
Amortization of intangibles from acquisition are added back to better align our calculation of adjusted EPS with peers. |
(2) |
During the 2022 and 2021 fiscal years, the Company obtained certain tax benefits of $18 million and $30 million, respectively, deemed as non-comparable. Additionally, we included the prior year extra days (which was in the December 2021 quarter only), in the non-comparable line. |
(3) |
The FY 2022 comparable basis change excludes the impacts of foreign currency (as of October 2022) and recent divestitures. |
(4) |
Supplemental financial measures that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to operating or net income or cash flows from operating activities, in each case determined in accordance with GAAP. Organic sales growth and comparable basis measures exclude the impact of currency translation effects and acquisitions. These non-GAAP financial measures may be calculated differently by other companies, including other companies in our industry, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. Berry’s management believes that adjusted net income and other non-GAAP financial measures are useful to our investors because they allow for a better period-over-period comparison of operating results by removing the impact of items that, in management’s view, do not reflect our core operating performance.
