Reynolds Consumer Products Reports Fourth Quarter and
Fiscal Year 2022 Financial Results
Three of Four Segments Report Record Quarterly Profit
Comprehensive Recovery Plan Launched for Reynolds Cooking & Baking
Anticipate Return to Pre-Pandemic Profitability in 2023
LAKE FOREST, IL, February 8, 2023 – (BUSINESSWIRE) – Reynolds Consumer Products Inc. (“Reynolds,” “RCP” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: REYN) today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.
Fiscal Year 2022 Highlights
•Net Revenues of $3,817 million, up 7% over prior year net revenues
•Net Income of $258 million; Adjusted Net Income of $269 million
•Adjusted EBITDA of $546 million
•Earnings Per Share of $1.23; Adjusted Earnings Per Share of $1.28
Net revenues increased 7% as pricing more than offset a volume decline driven primarily by price elasticity and increased activity outside the home. Net income decreased 20% versus the prior year, while Adjusted EBITDA decreased 9%, due to lower volume and higher advertising costs, partially offset by the timing of pricing actions to recover increased material, manufacturing and logistics costs.
“We reported another year of record net revenues and enter 2023 with increased market share and consumption levels well above pre-pandemic levels in multiple categories,” said Lance Mitchell, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We are encouraged by three of four segments’ recovery to pre-pandemic profitability and record profits in the fourth quarter. However, Reynolds Cooking & Baking performance was disappointing due to a combination of operational inefficiencies and lower volume. We are working to mitigate the impact of these challenges and have launched a comprehensive plan to improve Reynolds Cooking & Baking operations and performance, including organizational changes, redesign of equipment reliability practices and new initiatives aimed at driving operational excellence. We expect our execution of this plan to contribute to our anticipated return to pre-pandemic profitability over the course of 2023.”
Fourth Quarter 2022 Highlights
•Net Revenues of $1,089 million, up 7% over Q4 prior year net revenues
•Net Income of $107 million; Adjusted Net Income of $111 million
•Adjusted EBITDA of $200 million
•Earnings Per Share of $0.51; Adjusted Earnings Per Share of $0.53
Net revenues also increased 7% in the quarter as pricing more than offset a volume decline driven primarily by price elasticity and increased activity outside the home. Net income increased by 2% versus the same prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA increased by 10%, driven by implementation of pricing actions in response to higher costs partially offset by the impact of lower volume, most prominently in Reynolds Cooking & Baking where we lapped the impact of prior year retailer inventory replenishment as well as higher manufacturing and material costs.


Reynolds Cooking & Baking
•Net revenues decreased $14 million, or 3%
•Adjusted EBITDA decreased $43 million, or 49%
Net revenues decreased 3%, driven by lower volume, partially offset by higher pricing in response to cost increases. Adjusted EBITDA decreased 49% driven by lower volume and increases in material and manufacturing costs.
Volume decreased 10% driven by lower household foil consumption as well as lapping of retailer inventory replenishment in the fourth quarter of 2021.
Reynolds Wrap gained additional market share in the fourth quarter as features and displays increased, promotions to key price points continued and price gaps to private label narrowed. The Reynolds brand also maintained higher share in adjacent categories such as oven bags and slow cooker liners during the quarter and continued to benefit from product innovations, including Reynolds Kitchens Air Fryer liners.
Reynolds Cooking & Baking earnings were impacted negatively by additional unplanned equipment downtime, which in turn, increased manufacturing costs and required supplemental purchases of milled aluminum at a premium to our costs. Lower household foil consumption together with higher cost aluminum also contributed to the earnings decrease.
In response, we have developed and launched a comprehensive and well-resourced plan to maintain commercial momentum and reduce operational impediments to achieve the recovery of historical levels of profitability.
Hefty Waste & Storage
•Net revenues increased $9 million, or 4%
•Adjusted EBITDA increased $26 million, or 57%
Net revenues increased 4%, driven by higher pricing in response to cost increases, partially offset by lower volume. Adjusted EBITDA increased 57%, reflecting the timing of pricing actions relative to cost increases and the execution of cost savings initiatives partially offset by the impact of lower volume.
Volume decreased 5% driven by price elasticity and increased consumer activity outside the home.
Hefty waste bags gained share in the quarter and for the year, and waste bag usage continued well above 2019 levels as consumers continued cooking and working more at home as compared to 2019. Innovation remained a major driver of share gains including the launch of Hefty 4 & 8-gallon drawstring trash bags with new Fabuloso® Lavender and Ocean Water scents and Hefty Fabuloso® Lavender products gained additional points of distribution in the quarter.
Hefty Slider trends improved in the quarter with increased advertising and innovation, including the national launch of Hefty Storage half gallon and calendar bags in the e-commerce channel, contributing to the improvement.
Hefty Tableware
•Net revenues increased $65 million, or 28%
•Adjusted EBITDA increased $29 million, or 88%
Net revenues increased 28%, primarily driven by higher pricing in response to cost increases. Adjusted EBITDA increased 88% driven by timing of pricing actions and execution of cost savings initiatives.
Volume increased 1% driven by Hefty disposable plates and continued strength in the club channel.
Hefty Tableware gained brand share of disposable tableware in the quarter and for the year, driven by Hefty disposable plates, innovation and implementing additional pricing in the quarter. Hefty ECOSAVE™ remained a major contributor to growth, gaining additional distribution, and Hefty Compostable Printed Plates continued delivering strong initial results.


Presto Products
•Net revenues increased $12 million, or 8%
•Adjusted EBITDA increased $13 million, or 76%
Net revenues increased 8%, driven by higher pricing in response to cost increases and volume growth. Adjusted EBITDA increased 76% driven by timing of pricing actions, higher volume and the impact of cost reduction initiatives.
Volume increased 3% driven by increased consumption and share of private label food bags.
Presto gained additional share of private label food bags in the quarter and for the year, and new products remained a major contributor of growth.

At December 31, 2022, our cash and cash equivalents were $38 million, and our outstanding debt was $2,091 million, resulting in net debt of $2,053 million. Capital expenditures were $128 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $141 million in the prior year.

(1)The Company is not providing projected adjusted net income or adjusted earnings per share, as it does not anticipate using or presenting such non-GAAP metrics in these periods.
Commodity rates are assumed to be relatively stable versus end of January levels.
We expect to further recover pre-pandemic profitability in 2023 driven by continued solid performance for Hefty Waste & Storage, Hefty Tableware and Presto and improving performance for Reynolds Cooking & Baking over the course of the year.
The carryover of higher cost aluminum and the impact of operational inefficiencies in Reynolds Cooking & Baking into 2023, as well as volume comparisons, is expected to be a significant drag on our first quarter results, resulting in a decline in projected consolidated profitability compared to the prior year period.
“Our Hefty Waste & Storage, Hefty Tableware and Presto segments’ fourth quarter results demonstrate our progress recovering pre-pandemic profitability, and we expect continued price discipline and additional Reyvolution cost savings to contribute to further margin expansion in 2023,” said Michael Graham, Chief Financial Officer. “We anticipate our well-resourced plan for improving Reynolds Cooking & Baking operations to yield substantial improvement in segment profitability over the course of the year. We also expect to drive additional cash flow and deleverage in 2023 on the basis of earnings growth, improved balance sheet efficiency and continued capital spending discipline.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We use non-GAAP financial measures “Adjusted EBITDA,” “Adjusted Net Income,” “Adjusted Earnings Per Share,” and “Net Debt” in evaluating our past results and future prospects. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income calculated in accordance with GAAP, plus the sum of income tax expense, net interest expense, depreciation and amortization and further adjusted to exclude IPO and separation-related costs, as well as other non-recurring costs. We define Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share (“Adjusted EPS”) as Net Income and Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) calculated in accordance with GAAP, plus IPO and separation-related costs, and other non-recurring costs.  We define Net Debt as the current portion of long-term debt plus long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents.
We present Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by our management team to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions. In addition, our chief operating decision maker uses Adjusted EBITDA of each reportable segment to evaluate the operating performance of such segments. We use Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share as supplemental measures to evaluate our business’ performance in a way that also considers our ability to generate profit without the impact of certain items. We use Net Debt as we believe it is a more representative measure of our liquidity. Accordingly, we believe presenting these measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management team and board of directors.  
Non-GAAP information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as or comparable to similar non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies.
Guidance for fiscal year and first quarter 2023, where adjusted, is provided on a non-GAAP basis. The Company cannot reconcile its expected Net Debt at December 31, 2023 to expected total debt without reasonable effort because certain items that impact total debt and other reconciling measures are out of the Company’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted at this time, to which unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company’s GAAP financial results.
Please see reconciliations of Non-GAAP measures used in this release (with the exception of our December 31, 2023 Net Debt outlook, as described above) to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, beginning on the following page.
