Kellogg Company Reports First Quarter 2022 Results, Affirms Full-Year Earnings Outlook
BATTLE CREEK, Mich. - May 5, 2022 - Kellogg Company (NYSE: K) today announced first quarter 2022 results and affirmed its full-year earnings guidance.
Highlights:

•Sustained net sales growth, led by snacks, international momentum, and positive price/mix.

•Mitigated the profit impacts of high cost inflation, economy-wide bottlenecks and shortages, and the residual impact of last year's fire and strike through productivity, revenue growth management, and discipline on investment.

•Restoring North America cereal inventory faster than anticipated from last year's fire and strike.

•Raising full-year guidance for organic-basis net sales growth, reflecting momentum and revenue growth management actions.

•Affirming guidance for operating profit, earnings per share, and cash flow, as the improved sales outlook offsets incremental pressures from accelerated cost inflation and business disruption, including impacts related to the war in Ukraine.

    "We are pleased to report another quarter of solid results, getting off to a better start to the year than we had expected," said Steve Cahillane, Kellogg Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "The strength of our portfolio is evident, as we more than offset the sales and cost impact of supply recovery in North America cereal with sustained momentum in snacks growth around the world. Our ability to execute with agility was also on display, as we navigated through a challenging supply environment and delivered productivity and price realization amidst decades-high cost inflation."

Mr. Cahillane added, "Our strong start to the year, coupled with good sales momentum, allow us to affirm earnings guidance even as the outlook has worsened for cost inflation and incremental business disruptions, including impacts related to the war in Ukraine. This is a testament to our strategy, our portfolio, and our people."

Guidance and goals expressed in this press release are on a currency-neutral basis, and adjusted to exclude restructuring charges, mark-to-market adjustments of pensions (service cost, interest cost, expected return on plan assets, and other net periodic pension costs are not excluded), commodity contracts, certain equity investments and certain foreign currency contracts, and other costs impacting comparability. Organic basis also excludes acquisitions, divestitures, and differences in shipping days. Expected net sales, margins, operating profit, and earnings per share are provided on a non-GAAP basis only because certain information necessary to calculate such measures on a GAAP basis is unavailable, dependent on

future events outside of our control and cannot be predicted without unreasonable efforts by the Company.

The company will use the term "low single digit" to refer to percent changes of up to 3%, "mid single-digit" to refer to percent changes between 4% and 6%, "high single-digit" to refer to percent changes between 7% up to 10%, and "double-digit" to refer to percent changes of 10% or more.

First Quarter Consolidated Results
    Kellogg’s first quarter 2022 GAAP (or "reported") net sales increased by more than 2% year on year, as positive price/mix and growth momentum of snacks brands in all four Regions more than offset adverse currency translation and the impact of insufficient finished-goods inventory in North America cereal related to a fire and labor strike in the second half of 2021. On an organic basis, which excludes the impact of currency, the Company's net sales grew just over 4%.
Reported operating profit in the first quarter increased 10% year on year, as favorable mark-to-market impacts more than offset adverse currency translation and the residual impacts of the second-half 2021 fire and strike in North America cereal. On an adjusted basis, which excludes mark-to-market and one-time charges, operating profit declined by 4%, and by only 2% excluding currency translation.
Reported earnings per share increased by approximately 15% from the prior-year quarter primarily due to favorable mark-to-market gains, as well as by a lower effective tax rate and a reduction in shares outstanding due to share repurchases. On an adjusted basis, which excludes one-time charges, earnings per share decreased by 1%, and excluding currency translation, adjusted earnings per share improved year on year by 1%.
Year-to-date net cash provided by operating activities was $327 million, a substantial increase over the year-earlier period's $235 million on the strength of higher earnings and lower incentive compensation payments. After capital expenditures of $138 million, cash flow, defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditure, was $189 million through the first three months of the year, improving meaningfully from the prior-year period's $62 million.

sustained particularly strong momentum in snacks worldwide; largely offset high costs through productivity, revenue growth management, and disciplined investment; and made good progress toward recovering inventory and sales in North America cereal, which was beset by a fire and labor strike in its manufacturing network in the second half of last year.
Kellogg North America’s reported net sales in the first quarter declined by less than 1%, as growth momentum in snacks and positive price/mix from revenue growth management actions were offset by volume declines related to lapping strong 2-year comparisons and to supply disruptions, most notably low cereal inventory stemming from last year's fire and labor strike. On an organic basis, net sales decreased by less than 1%. Kellogg North America's reported operating profit declined 11%, due to the residual impacts of the second-half 2021 fire and strike in North America cereal. On an adjusted and currency-neutral adjusted basis, which exclude one-time charges, operating profit decreased by 10%.
Kellogg Europe's first quarter reported net sales increased 2%, as price/mix growth more than offset a modest volume decline related to lapping strong 2-year comparisons, and significantly adverse currency translation. On an organic-basis, net sales increased 8% led by snacks. Reported operating profit increased 22%, driven by strong net sales. Adjusted-basis operating profit increased by 22%, and by 28% excluding currency.
Kellogg Latin America's first quarter reported net sales increased 8%, as price/mix growth more than offset a decline in volume against a strong year-earlier gain, and additionally aided by favorable currency translation. On an organic basis, net sales increased 6%, reflecting growth across sub-regions led by snacks. Reported operating profit declined by 47% year on year, as it lapped last year's exceptional growth, experienced notably high cost inflation, and incurred market-to-market losses. Adjusted and currency neutral adjusted operating profit decreased by 29% and 26%, respectively.
Kellogg Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa's ("AMEA's") first quarter reported net sales increased by 12%, as price/mix growth more than offset a decline in volume related to lapping strong 2-year comparisons. On an organic basis, net sales increased by 17%, reflecting growth across sub-regions and in snacks, cereal, and noodles and other. Kellogg AMEA's reported operating profit increased 5%, as higher net sales more than offset the impact of notably high cost inflation and adverse currency translation. On an adjusted basis, operating profit increased by 5%, and on a currency-neutral adjusted basis, operating profit increased by 10%.

Kellogg Affirms Full-Year Financial Guidance
Reflecting its first-quarter results, underlying trends, and changes in the operating environment, Kellogg Company has updated its full-year 2022 guidance as follows:
•Raises its guidance for organic-basis net sales growth to approximately 4%, from its prior guidance of approximately 3%. This reflects momentum in its business, particularly snacks globally and noodles in Africa, as well as by higher price/mix growth required to cover incremental cost inflation in the economy.

•Affirms its guidance for adjusted-basis operating profit growth of 1-2% on a currency-neutral basis, as the improved outlook for net sales offsets incremental pressures from accelerated cost inflation and business disruption, including impacts related to the Russia/Ukraine situation.

•Affirms its guidance for adjusted-basis earnings per share growth of 1-2% on a currency-neutral basis, reflecting the unchanged operating profit outlook as well as offsetting impacts of lower other income and a lower effective tax rate.

•Affirms its guidance for net cash provided by operating activities of approximately $1.7 - $1.8 billion, with capital expenditure of approximately $0.6 billion. As a result, cash flow is still expected to be in the $1.1 - $1.2 billion range.

Excluded from this guidance are any significant supply chain or other prolonged market disruptions related to the pandemic or the global economy.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    This filing includes non-GAAP financial measures that we provide to management and investors that exclude certain items that we do not consider part of on-going operations. Items excluded from our non-GAAP financial measures are discussed in the "Significant items impacting comparability" section of this filing. Our management team consistently utilizes a combination of GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate business results, to make decisions regarding the future direction of our business, and for resource allocation decisions, including incentive compensation. As a result, we believe the presentation of both GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with increased transparency into financial measures used by our management team and improves investors’ understanding of our underlying operating performance and in their analysis of ongoing operating trends. All historic non-GAAP financial measures have been reconciled with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

    Non-GAAP financial measures used include currency-neutral and organic net sales, adjusted and currency-neutral adjusted operating profit, adjusted and currency-neutral adjusted diluted EPS, currency-neutral adjusted gross profit, currency-neutral adjusted gross margin, adjusted other income (expense), adjusted effective income tax rate, net debt and cash flow. We determine currency-neutral results by dividing or multiplying, as appropriate, the current-period local currency operating results by the currency exchange rates used to translate our financial statements in the comparable prior-year period to determine what the current period U.S. dollar operating results would have been if the currency exchange rate had not changed from the comparable prior-year period. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies.

•Currency-neutral net sales and organic net sales: We adjust the GAAP financial measure to exclude the impact of foreign currency, resulting in currency-neutral net sales. In addition, we exclude the impact of acquisitions, divestitures, and foreign currency, resulting in organic net sales. We excluded the items which we believe may obscure trends in our underlying net sales performance. By providing these non-GAAP net sales measures, management intends to provide investors with a meaningful, consistent comparison of net sales performance for the Company and each of our reportable segments for the periods presented. Management uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate the effectiveness of initiatives behind net sales growth, pricing realization, and the impact of mix on our business results.

These non-GAAP measures are also used to make decisions regarding the future direction of our business, and for resource allocation decisions.
•Adjusted: gross profit, gross margin, operating profit and diluted EPS: We adjust the GAAP financial measures to exclude the effect of restructuring programs, mark-to-market adjustments for pension plans (service cost, interest cost, expected return on plan assets, and other net periodic pension costs are not excluded), commodity contracts, certain equity investments and certain foreign currency contracts, and other costs impacting comparability resulting in adjusted. We excluded the items which we believe may obscure trends in our underlying profitability. By providing these non-GAAP profitability measures, management intends to provide investors with a meaningful, consistent comparison of the Company's profitability measures for the periods presented. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the effectiveness of initiatives intended to improve profitability, as well as to evaluate the impacts of inflationary pressures and decisions to invest in new initiatives within each of our segments.
•Currency-neutral adjusted: gross profit, gross margin, operating profit, and diluted EPS: We adjust the GAAP financial measures to exclude the effect of restructuring programs, mark-to-market adjustments for pension plans (service cost, interest cost, expected return on plan assets, and other net periodic pension costs are not excluded), commodity contracts, certain equity investments and certain foreign currency contracts, other costs impacting comparability, and foreign currency, resulting in currency-neutral adjusted. We excluded the items which we believe may obscure trends in our underlying profitability. By providing these non-GAAP profitability measures, management intends to provide investors with a meaningful, consistent comparison of the Company's profitability measures for the periods presented. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the effectiveness of initiatives intended to improve profitability, as well as to evaluate the impacts of inflationary pressures and decisions to invest in new initiatives within each of our segments.
•Adjusted other income (expense): We adjust the GAAP financial measure to exclude the effect of restructuring programs, mark-to-market adjustments for pension plans (service cost, interest cost, expected return on plan assets, and other net periodic pension costs are not excluded) and certain equity investments, and other costs impacting comparability. We excluded the items which we believe may obscure trends in our underlying profitability. By providing this non-GAAP measure, management intends to provide investors with a meaningful, consistent comparison of the Company's other income (expense), excluding the impact of the items noted above, for the periods presented. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the effectiveness of initiatives intended to improve profitability.
•Adjusted effective income tax rate: We adjust the GAAP financial measures to exclude the effect of restructuring programs, mark-to-market adjustments for pension plans (service cost, interest cost, expected return on plan assets, and other net periodic pension costs are not excluded), commodity contracts, certain equity investments, and certain foreign currency contracts, and other costs impacting comparability. We excluded the items which we believe may obscure trends in our pre-tax income and the related tax effect of those items on our adjusted effective income tax rate, and other impacts to tax expense, including tax reform in the UK and certain foreign valuation allowances. By providing this non-GAAP measure, management intends to provide investors with a meaningful, consistent comparison of the Company's effective tax rate, excluding the pre-tax income and tax effect of the items noted above, for the periods presented. Management uses this non-GAAP measure to monitor the effectiveness of initiatives in place to optimize our global tax rate.
•Net debt: Defined as the sum of long-term debt, current maturities of long-term debt and notes payable, less cash and cash equivalents, and marketable securities. With respect to net debt, cash and cash equivalents, and marketable securities are subtracted from the GAAP measure, total debt liabilities, because they could be used to reduce the Company’s debt obligations. Company management and investors use this non-GAAP measure to evaluate changes to the Company's capital structure and credit quality assessment.
5


•Cash flow: Defined as net cash provided by operating activities reduced by expenditures for property additions. Cash flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. We use this non-GAAP financial measure of cash flow to focus management and investors on the amount of cash available for debt repayment, dividend distributions, acquisition opportunities, and share repurchases once all of the Company’s business needs and obligations are met. Additionally, certain performance-based compensation includes a component of this non-GAAP measure.
    These measures have not been calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as a substitute for GAAP reporting measures.

    Forward-looking guidance for organic net sales, currency-neutral adjusted operating profit, currency-neutral diluted EPS, and cash flow is included in this press release. Guidance for organic net sales excludes the impact of foreign currency translation, acquisitions, divestitures, and differences in shipping days. Guidance for operating profit excludes the impact of costs related to restructuring programs, mark-to-market adjustments (service cost, interest cost, expected return on plan assets, and other net periodic pension costs are not excluded), and other items that could affect comparability, and foreign currency translation. Guidance for earnings per share excludes the impact of costs related to restructuring programs, mark-to-market adjustments (service cost, interest cost, expected return on plan assets, and other net periodic pension costs are not excluded), and other items that could affect comparability, and foreign currency translation. We have provided these non-GAAP measures for future guidance for the same reasons that were outlined above for historical non-GAAP measures.

    We are unable to reasonably estimate the potential full-year financial impact of mark-to-market adjustments because these impacts are dependent on future changes in market conditions (interest rates, return on assets, and commodity prices). Similarly, because of volatility in foreign exchange rates and shifts in country mix of our international earnings, we are unable to reasonably estimate the potential full-year financial impact of foreign currency translation. 

    As a result, these impacts are not included in the guidance provided. Therefore, we are unable to provide a full reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures used in our guidance without unreasonable effort as certain information necessary to calculate such measure on a GAAP basis is unavailable, dependent on future events outside of our control and cannot be predicted without unreasonable efforts by the Company.

    See the table below that outlines the projected impact of certain other items that are excluded from non-GAAP guidance for 2022:
Impact of certain items excluded from Non-GAAP guidance:Net SalesOperating ProfitEarnings Per Share
Business and portfolio realignment (pre-tax)$30-$40M$0.09-$0.12

These items for 2022 include impacts of mark-to-market adjustments for pension plans (service cost, interest cost, expected return on plan assets, and other net periodic pension costs are not excluded), commodity contracts, certain equity investments, and certain foreign currency contracts.

Mark-to-market
We recognize mark-to-market adjustments for pension and postretirement benefit plans, commodity contracts, and certain foreign currency contracts as incurred. Actuarial gains/losses for pension plans are recognized in the year they occur. Mark-to-market gains/losses for certain equity investments are recorded based on observable price changes. Changes between contract and market prices for commodity contracts and certain foreign currency contracts result in gains/losses that are recognized in the quarter they occur. We recorded a pre-tax mark-to-market benefit of $68 million for the quarter ended April 2, 2022. Included within the aforementioned was a pre-tax mark-to-market benefit for pension plans of $21 million for the quarter ended April 2, 2022. Additionally, we recorded a pre-tax mark-to-market expense of $9 million for the quarter ended April 3, 2021. Included within the aforementioned was a pre-tax mark-to-market benefit for pension plans of $9 million for the quarter ended April 3, 2021.

Business and portfolio realignment
One-time costs related to reorganizations in support of our Deploy for Growth priorities and a reshaped portfolio; investments in enhancing capabilities prioritized by our Deploy for Growth strategy; and completed and prospective divestitures and acquisitions. As a result, we incurred pre-tax charges, primarily related to reorganizations, of $7 million for the quarter ended April 2, 2022. We also recorded pre-tax charges of $7 million for the quarter ended April 3, 2021.

Foreign currency translation
We evaluate the operating results of our business on a currency-neutral basis. We determine currency-neutral operating results by dividing or multiplying, as appropriate, the current-period local currency operating results by the currency exchange rates used to translate our financial statements in the comparable prior-year period to determine what the current period U.S. dollar operating results would have been if the currency exchange rate had not changed from the comparable prior-year period.
