First Quarter 2017 Highlights
- Consolidated revenue of $596 million, down 2 percent versus Q1 '16
- Consolidated GAAP net loss of $0.92 per diluted share
- Consolidated adjusted earnings per diluted share of $0.43, up 19 percent versus Q1 '16

FMC Corporation (NYSE: FMC) today reported first quarter revenue of $596 million, excluding $177 million of revenue attributable to Health and Nutrition. On a GAAP basis, the company reported a net loss of $124 million in the first quarter, or a loss of $0.92 per diluted share, which includes an impairment charge of $165 million, net of tax, taken on its Omega-3 business. This compares to GAAP earnings of $48 million, or $0.36 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2016. First quarter 2017 adjusted earnings per diluted share were $0.43, which excludes approximately 21 cents attributable to the reporting of Health and Nutrition in discontinued operations. On a like-for-like basis with the company's guidance of 50 to 60 cents per share, adjusted EPS would have been 64 cents, which is 9 cents, or 16 percent, above the midpoint of the range.

Pierre Brondeau, FMC president, CEO and chairman said: "FMC delivered another solid quarter. In Ag Solutions, we improved profitability in an environment that remains challenging. Lithium earnings increased by 45 percent, as significantly higher pricing on lithium hydroxide and other specialty products took effect."
FMC Agricultural Solutions
FMC Agricultural Solutions reported first quarter revenue of $530 million and segment earnings of $83 million. First quarter segment revenue declined 3 percent year-over-year, as lower sales in Europe and Latin America offset better than expected revenue in Asia and North America. Segment earnings increased 1 percent compared to the first quarter of 2016, with improved product mix and benefit of foreign exchange cancelling out the negative impact of lower volumes.
FMC's full year outlook for Ag Solutions is unchanged.2 For 2017, full-year segment revenue is expected to be approximately $2.2 billion to $2.4 billion and full-year segment earnings are expected to be in the range of $410 million to $450 million, an increase of 8 percent at the mid-point compared to the prior year, driven by a strong second half in Latin America and a strong year in Asia. Second quarter segment earnings are expected to be in the range of $80 million to $100 million, a decrease of approximately 11 percent at the mid-point compared to the prior year quarter.
FMC Lithium
FMC Lithium reported first quarter segment revenue of $66 million, an increase of 9 percent from the prior-year quarter. Segment earnings increased 45 percent to $22 million in the quarter versus $15 million in the prior-year quarter. Higher prices and improved mix more than offset the impact of lower volume and higher costs on earnings.
The outlook for Lithium for the full year has been increased by $10 million at the mid-point versus the prior forecast. Segment revenue for the full year of 2017 is forecast to be in the range of $325 million to $365 million, while full-year segment earnings are expected to be between $100 million and $120 million. This revised forecast for full year segment earnings represents an increase of over 55 percent at the mid-point compared to the prior year. Second quarter segment earnings are expected to be in the range of $19 million to $23 million, an increase of approximately 27 percent at the mid-point compared to the prior year quarter.
FMC Health and Nutrition
FMC Health and Nutrition results are reported as discontinued operations. The segment has been excluded from first quarter adjusted results and from the second quarter and full year outlook for FMC.
2017 Outlook
FMC expects adjusted earnings per share to be in the range of $2.20 to $2.60 for the full year 2017, excluding any benefit from the pending DuPont (NYSE: DD) transaction, which may accrue in the fourth quarter.1,2

(1) | The Company believes that the Non-GAAP financial measure "Adjusted after-tax earnings from continuing operations attributable to FMC stockholders", and its presentation on a per share basis, provides useful information about the Company's operating results to investors and securities analysts. Adjusted earnings excludes the effects of corporate special charges, tax-related adjustments and the results of our discontinued operations. The Company also believes that excluding the effects of these items from operating results allows management and investors to compare more easily the financial performance of its underlying businesses from period to period. | |||||||||

Restructuring and other charges (income) represents $4.5 million of exit costs related to the termination of our interest in a variable interest entity that was previously consolidated and part of our FMC Agricultural Solutions segment. Additionally, restructuring and other charges (income) includes charges of continuing environmental sites treated as a Corporate charge of $2.3 million and other Corporate charges of $1.5 million. | ||||||||||
Three Months Ended March 31, 2016: | ||||||||||
Restructuring and other charges (income) includes charges of $3.0 million representing adjustments to severance and asset write-offs primarily associated with the integration of Cheminova with FMC Agricultural Solutions. Amounts also include $4.2 million as a result of the Argentina government's action to devalue its currency. Additionally, restructuring and other charges includes charges of continuing environmental sites treated as a corporate charge of $6.6 million. Remaining restructuring and other charges (income) includes net miscellaneous income of $(4.3) million. | ||||||||||
(b) | Our non-operating pension and postretirement costs are defined as those costs related to interest, expected return on plan assets, amortized actuarial gains and losses and the impacts of any plan curtailments or settlements. These costs are primarily related to changes in pension plan assets and liabilities which are tied to financial market performance and we consider these costs to be outside our operational performance. We exclude these non-operating pension and postretirement costs from our segments as we believe that removing them provides a better understanding of the underlying profitability of our businesses, provides increased transparency and clarity in the performance of our retirement plans and enhances period-over-period comparability. We continue to include the service cost and amortization of prior service cost in our Adjusted Earnings results noted above. We believe these elements reflect the current year operating costs to our businesses for the employment benefits provided to active employees. | |||||||||

(e) | Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 | |||||||||
Discontinued operations include the results of FMC Health and Nutrition as well as provisions, net of recoveries, for environmental liabilities and legal reserves and expenses related to previously discontinued operations. Assets held for sale under U.S. GAAP are required to be reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value, less costs to sell. We expect a significant gain on the FMC Health and Nutrition assets to be sold to DuPont and therefore these assets held for sale are reported at carrying value. However, the fair value of the Omega-3 business, which was previously part of the broader FMC Health and Nutrition reporting unit, is significantly less than its carrying value, which includes accumulated foreign currency translation adjustments that would be reclassified to earnings upon completion of sale. As a result, we recorded an impairment charge of approximately $185 million ($165 million, net of tax). | ||||||||||
(f) | We exclude the GAAP tax provision, including discrete items, from the Non-GAAP measure of income, and instead include a Non-GAAP tax provision based upon the projected annual Non-GAAP effective tax rate. The GAAP tax provision includes certain discrete tax items including, but are not limited to: income tax expenses or benefits that are not related to ongoing business operations in the current year; tax adjustments associated with fluctuations in foreign currency remeasurement of certain foreign operations; certain changes in estimates of tax matters related to prior fiscal years; certain changes in the realizability of deferred tax assets and related interim accounting impacts; and changes in tax law. Management believes excluding these discrete tax items assists investors and securities analysts in understanding the tax provision and the effective tax rate related to ongoing operations thereby providing investors with useful supplemental information about FMC's operational performance. | |||||||||
