Clearwater Paper Corporation (NYSE:CLW), a premier supplier of quality tissue and bleached paperboard products, today reported financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2023.
SECOND QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS
- Net sales of $525 million, slightly below the second quarter of last year
- Net income of $30 million, or $1.75 per diluted share
- Adjusted net income of $30 million, $11 million higher than the second quarter of last year
- Adjusted EBITDA of $71 million, $8 million higher than second quarter of last year
- Adjusted EBITDA margin at 13.6%, up from 12% during the second quarter of last year
- Reduced net debt by $25 million from first quarter of this year
- Repurchased $8 million of outstanding shares, with $15 million remaining under program
“We had a stronger than expected second quarter, with solid operational performance and lower than expected costs for key inputs such as pulp, energy, and transportation. Tissue demand remained strong, while paperboard was soft as consumer spending slowed and customers continued to manage inventories,” said Arsen Kitch, president and chief executive officer. “We continued to focus on cash flow generation and were able to reduce our net debt by $25 million and repurchase 263 thousand shares of our stock.”

USE OF NON-GAAP MEASURES
In this press release, the company presents certain non-GAAP financial information for the second quarter and first six months of 2023 and 2022, including adjusted income and Adjusted EBITDA. Because these amounts are not in accordance with GAAP, reconciliations to net income as determined in accordance with GAAP are included in the tables at the end of this press release. The company presents these non-GAAP metrics because management believes they assist investors and analysts in comparing the company's performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that the company does not believe are indicative of its core operating performance. In addition, the company uses Adjusted EBITDA: (i) as a factor in evaluating management’s performance when determining incentive compensation, (ii) to evaluate the effectiveness of the company's business strategies, and (iii) because the company's credit agreement and the indentures governing the company's outstanding notes use metrics similar to Adjusted EBITDA to measure the company's compliance with certain covenants.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This press release contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 as amended, including statements regarding demand, inflation, our expectations regarding the paperboard and tissue markets, operational and financial performance, and our focus on cash flow and inventory management. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, estimates, assumptions, and projections that are subject to change, and actual results may differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to: competitive pricing pressures for our products, including as a result of capacity additions, demand reduction and the impact of foreign currency fluctuations on the pricing of products globally; changes in the U.S. and international economies and in general economic conditions in the regions and industries in which we operate; manufacturing or operating disruptions, including equipment malfunctions and damage to our manufacturing facilities; the loss of, changes in prices in regard to, or reduction in, orders from a significant customer; changes in the cost and availability of wood fiber and wood pulp; changes in energy, chemicals, packaging and transportation costs and disruptions in transportation services impacting our ability to receive inputs or ship products to customers; reliance on a limited number of third-party suppliers, vendors and service providers required for the production of our products and our operations; changes in customer product preferences and competitors' product offerings; cyber-security risks; larger competitors having operational, financial and other advantages; consolidation and vertical integration of converting operations in the paperboard industry; our ability to successfully execute capital projects and other activities to operate our assets, including effective maintenance, implement our operational efficiencies and realize higher throughput or lower costs; IT system disruptions and IT system implementation failures; labor disruptions; cyclical industry conditions; changes in expenses, required contributions and potential withdrawal costs associated with our pension plans; environmental liabilities or expenditures and climate change; our ability to attract, motivate, train and retain qualified and key personnel; ability to service our debt obligations and restrictions on our business from debt covenants and terms; changes in our banking relations, or in our customer supply chain financing; negative changes in our credit agency ratings; changes in laws, regulations or industry standards affecting our business; and other risks and uncertainties described from time to time in the company's public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
