Our proprietary drug delivery systems continue to see healthy demand, sales for our active material science technologies grew nicely in the quarter and volumes for consumer dispensing solutions continued to progressively improve in North America. For the first six months of the year, we achieved double-digit earnings growth and delivered strong net cash provided by operations," said Stephan B. Tanda, Aptar President and CEO, commenting on the second quarter results.

Aptar Pharma had an increase in reported sales of 6% and core sales of 7% over the prior year quarter. The segment's strong performance was driven by continued growth for proprietary drug delivery systems used for allergic rhinitis, central nervous system therapeutics, emergency and pain medicines, as well as eye care and nasal decongestants. Sales declined in the Injectables division compared to the prior year quarter as sales normalized following last year's strong second quarter catch up from the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) implementation in the first quarter of 2023. For the first six months of the year, the Injectables division grew 14%. The Active Material Science division returned to growth after a period of destocking due to COVID.

Aptar Beauty's reported sales decreased 2%, and with currency effects core sales were down 1% compared to the prior year quarter. Volumes in the quarter grew over the prior year period as sales in North America continued to show progressive improvement, however, this was offset by higher tooling sales in the prior year period. Margins continued to improve year over year even with softer sales, due to operational performance and ongoing cost management.

Aptar Closures' reported sales decreased 1% from the prior year quarter and the segment's core sales were flat. Increased volumes were offset by the pass through of lower resin costs. Margins for Closures were flat over the prior year quarter as ongoing cost containment efforts and operational performance were offset by the timing of pass through of lower resin costs.

Aptar reported second quarter earnings per share of $1.34, an increase of 8%, compared to $1.24 during the same period a year ago. Second quarter adjusted earnings per share, excluding restructuring charges and the unrealized gains or losses on an equity investment, were $1.37, an increase of 12%, compared to $1.22 in the prior year, including comparable exchange rates.

Year-To-Date Results

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, reported sales increased 4% to $1.83 billion compared to $1.76 billion in the prior year. Core sales, excluding the impact from changes in currency exchange rates and acquisitions, increased 4%.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, Aptar's reported earnings per share were $2.57, an increase of 24%, compared to $2.07 reported a year ago. Current year adjusted earnings per share, excluding restructuring charges, acquisition costs, and the unrealized gains or losses on an equity investment, were $2.63 and increased 21% from prior year adjusted earnings per share of $2.18, including comparable exchange rates. The prior year's adjusted earnings included an effective tax rate of 25% (approximately $0.10 per share negative impact compared to the current year effective tax rate of 22%).

Outlook

Regarding Aptar's outlook, Tanda stated, "We had a strong first half, and we expect growth to continue in the third quarter. We anticipate growth for our proprietary drug delivery systems to continue, driven by increased demand for nasally delivered central nervous system drugs and allergy therapies. We are also seeing growing demand for elastomeric components used for GLP-1. For our consumer dispensing technologies, we are seeing pockets of strength and progressive recovery in North America. As volumes come back, we believe we will benefit from our continued focus on cost management and improved operational leverage. Our solid operational performance and our strong balance sheet should position us well for future growth. Even in a slowing economy, we believe in the resilience of our portfolio as demonstrated by our recent dividend increase of approximately 10% on top of last year's nearly 8% increase."

Aptar currently expects earnings per share for the third quarter of 2024, excluding any restructuring expenses, changes in the fair value of equity investments and acquisition costs, to be in the range of $1.38 to $1.46. This guidance is based on an effective tax rate range of 23.5% to 25.5% with a comparable adjusted prior year effective tax rate of 24%. The earnings per share guidance range was based on spot rates at the end of June for all currencies. Our currency exchange rate assumptions equate to an approximately $0.02 per share headwind when compared to the prior year third quarter earnings.

Cash Dividends and Share Repurchases

As previously announced, Aptar's Board of Directors increased the quarterly cash dividend by approximately 10% to $0.45 per share. The payment date is August 15, 2024, to stockholders of record as of July 25, 2024. During the second quarter, Aptar repurchased 34 thousand shares for approximately $5 million. Aptar may repurchase shares through the open market, privately negotiated transactions or other programs, subject to market conditions.

Presentation of Non-GAAP Information

This press release refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures, including current year adjusted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA, which exclude the impact of restructuring initiatives, acquisition-related costs, certain purchase accounting adjustments related to acquisitions and investments and net unrealized investment gains and losses related to observable market price changes on equity securities. Core sales and adjusted earnings per share also neutralize the impact of foreign currency translation effects when comparing current results to the prior year. Non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures provided by other companies. Aptar's management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information 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 Aptar's core operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures also provide investors with certain information used by Aptar's management when making financial and operational decisions. Free cash flow is calculated as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures plus proceeds from government grants related to capital expenditures. We use free cash flow to measure cash flow generated by operations that is available for dividends, share repurchases, acquisitions and debt repayment. We believe that it is meaningful to investors in evaluating our financial performance and measuring our ability to generate cash internally to fund our initiatives. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial results but should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and other information presented herein. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is included in the accompanying tables. Our outlook is provided on a non-GAAP basis because certain reconciling items are dependent on future events that either cannot be controlled, such as exchange rates and changes in the fair value of equity investments, or reliably predicted because they are not part of the company's routine activities, such as restructuring and acquisition costs.
