Gaël Hili, President and CEO of ADAMA, said, "ADAMA's financial results for the third quarter of 2024 are an indication of the steady turnaround the Company is making. We have again demonstrated marked improvements in our quality of business and cash generation. Our decision to de-focus from certain commoditized generics, coupled with our continued focus on higher value, differentiated products, has led to improvement in the gross margin for the third quarter in a row and in the EBITDA & EBITDA margin for the second quarter in a row. The fierce competition in the market, mainly in such commoditized generics, validates this was the right decision for ADAMA.

"With three quarters of progressive improvements under our belt, I am confident that the "Fight Forward" transformation plan is putting the company on the right path for future success, and I plan to accelerate its implementation. In the coming months we will implement our evolved operating model aimed at deploying resources in countries where we can best drive profitable growth, enhancing our commercial operations, functional excellence, and customer engagement in key markets, creating greater cross company ‎efficiencies. ‎I also strongly believe that ADAMA's portfolio strategy focused on delivering innovative products with attractive ROI for farmers is exactly the right one for the challenging  market conditions we see, especially as farmer purchase power continues to be impacted across the world.

"On a personal note, I am excited to join ADAMA at this transformative time and look forward to shaping the company, together with our Global Leadership Team, to face and succeed in this challenging environment." ‎

The General Crop Protection (CP) Market Environment^[2] 

During the third quarter of 2024, key commodity crop prices remained subdued, pressuring farmer income, despite some ease in the prices of inputs.

While channel inventory continues to ease, the high interest rate environment coupled with ample product supply and active ingredient prices from China remain at historic lows, continue to drive a just-in-time purchasing approach by the channel.

These dynamics have negatively impacted the pricing in the crop protection market.

Update on the War Situation in Israel

ADAMA is headquartered in Israel and has three manufacturing sites in the country. The war situation in Israel, including recent developments, and tensions in the Red Sea and shipping disruptions, have not had a material impact on the Company's ability to support its markets or on ADAMA's consolidated financial results.

"Fight Forward" Transformation Plan 

As announced in the ADAMA's full year 2023 financial results report, ADAMA initiated a plan in the first quarter of 2024 to revalue ADAMA through improving the quality of the business to turnaround the ‎Company. The Company-wide transformation plan is aimed at gradually delivering profit and cash targets over a period of 3 years (2024-2026).

Portfolio Development Update

Product Launches, Registrations:

During the third quarter of 2024 ADAMA continued to register and launch multiple new products in markets across the globe, adding on to its differentiated product portfolio.

Financial Highlights

Revenues in the third quarter declined by approximately 10% (-11% in RMB terms; -6% in CER terms) to $929 million, presenting a decrease of 7% in prices and an increase of 1% in volumes.

The lower sales reflect lower market prices and de-focus from selected low profit products. High competition from Chinese and ‎Indians manufactures as well as declining active ingredient prices have impacted the pricing of the overall crop protection market led by the pricing of commoditized generic crop protection. Moreover, despite improvement in market inventory levels, the channel is exercising ‎cautious buying patterns in light of price volatility and a higher interest rate ‎environment.

These results brought the revenues in the first nine months of 2024 to $3,028 million, a decline of approximately 14% (-13% in RMB terms; -12% in CER terms), reflecting a decrease of 9% in prices and a decrease of 3% in volumes.

 

 

 

Europe, Africa & Middle East (EAME):

Sales in EAME decreased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024, following negative weather conditions in Eastern, Central and Northern Europe, and strong competition across the region, which have impacted pricing.

North America: Consumer & Professional Solutions – Sales were higher in the third quarter and nine-month period supported by good weather, while the Company focused on higher margin products. ‎

In the US Ag market, sales increased in the third quarter supported by channel restocking against channel destocking in the corresponding quarter and decreased in the first nine months of 2024, following pricing pressure in light of competition and lower farmer profitability, just-in-time purchasing patterns reflecting the high interest rate environment.

‎ADAMA's sales in Canada in the third quarter were higher and reflected good demand for pre and post harvest herbicides and fungicides, while the lower sales in the nine month period were impacted by low insecticide demand due to weather conditions.

Latin America: Brazil – decline in sales in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024, reflecting ‎the softer pricing following competition from Chinese competitors, "wait and see" farmers behavior ‎postponing CP purchases, negative impact of weather as well as de-focus from non-selective herbicides. ‎ ‎The Company is focusing its sales on higher margin products, with new product ‎introductions of differentiated products continuing to do well. ‎

In the rest of LATAM sales in the third quarter and the first nine-month period reflected negative weather conditions which have impacted the seasons across the region, while pricing was impacted by high competition. Despite this, new product introductions of differentiated products supported sales.

Asia-Pacific (APAC):

In China, the branded formulations sales in the third quarter were impacted by lower customer demand due to high channel inventory, market competition and extreme weather events as typhoon in Southern China. The pricing pressure continued throughout the first nine months. The Non-Ag business saw a stable demand and improved business quality despite the impact of lower prices.

In the Pacific region, sales in the third quarter and the first nine months were lower, impacted by softer pricing and just-in-time purchasing patterns. Sales in the third quarter were supported by positive weather conditions in Eastern Australia and in New Zealand.

Sales in India were stable in the third quarter and down in the nine-month period, impacted by erratic weather and softer pricing, particularly in ‎commoditized products.

Sales in the wider APAC region continued to experience pricing pressure following intense competition from China, particularly in commoditized products, and low demand as customers focused on lowering stocks and tended to buy products as needed.

Gross Profit reported in the third quarter increased by 2% to $188 million (gross margin of 20.2%) compared to $185 million (gross margin of 18.0%) in the same quarter last year and in the nine-month period reached $672 million (gross margin of 22.2%), compared to $748 million (gross margin of 21.2%) last year.

Adjustments to reported results: The adjusted gross profit mainly includes reclassification of all inventory impairment, taxes and surcharge and excludes certain transportation costs (classified under operating expenses), as well as a provision related to the soil & water cleanup and remediation regarding the Company's ‎different sites in Israel. ‎

Adjusted gross profit in the third quarter increased by 14% to $225 million (gross margin of 24.2%) compared to $198 million (gross margin of 19.2%) in the same quarter last year and in the nine-month period reached $782 million (gross margin of 25.8%) compared to $815 million (gross margin of 23.1%) last year.

Despite the decline in sales in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024, the Company improved the gross margin both in the third quarter and nine-month period following the positive impact of new inventory sold, priced at market levels and following management's focus on the quality of business which led to an improvement in the sales mix of higher margin products, moderated by the negative impact of exchange rates. In the third quarter the Company also recorded a slight increase in quantities sold, which had a positive impact.

Operating expenses reported in the third quarter of 2024 were $222 million (23.9% of sales), compared to $224 million (21.7% of sales) in the same quarter last year and reached $671 million (22.2% of sales) in the nine-month period compared to $655 million (18.6% of sales) last year.

Adjustments to reported results: please refer to the explanation regarding adjustments to the gross profit in respect to certain transportation costs, taxes and surcharges and inventory impairment.

Additionally, the Company recorded certain non-operational items within its reported operating expenses amounting to $37 million in Q3 2024 in comparison to $7 million in Q3 2023 and $113 in 9M 2024 in comparison to $22 in 9M 2023. These include mainly (i) provisions, such as legal claims, registration impairment and update of registration depreciation (ii) measures to improve efficiencies,  (iii) non-cash amortization charges in respect of Transfer Assets received from Syngenta related to the 2017 ChemChina-Syngenta acquisition, (iv) charges related to the non-cash amortization of intangible assets created as part of the Purchase Price Allocation (PPA) on acquisitions, with no impact on the ongoing performance of the companies acquired. For further details on these non-operational items, please see the appendix to this release.

Adjusted operating expenses in the third quarter were $212 million (22.8% of sales), compared to $229 million (22.1% of sales) in the same quarter last year, and reached $645 million (21.3% of sales) in the nine month period compared to $698 million (19.8% of sales) last year.

The operating expenses were lower in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024, following undertaking tight OPEX management measures, including the impact of initiatives included in the Company's transformation plan, lower transportation and logistics costs and the ‎positive impact of exchange rates.

Operating income reported in the third quarter reached a loss of $34 million )-3.6% of sales) compared to a loss of $38 million (-3.7% of sales) in the third quarter of 2023 and amounted to $1 million (0.0% of sales) in the nine month period compared to $94 million (2.7% of sales) last year.

Adjusted operating income in the third quarter amounted to $13 million (1.4% of sales) compared to a loss of $31 million (-3.0% of sales) in the same quarter last year and increased by 17% to $137 million (4.5% of sales) in the nine-month period compared to $117 million (3.3% of sales) last year.

EBITDA reported in the third quarter increased by 49% to $56 million (6.0% of sales) compared to $37 million (3.6% of sales) in the same quarter last year and amounted to $252 million (8.3% of sales) in the nine-month period compared to $318 million (9.0% of sales) last year.

Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter increased by 125% to $80 million (8.6% of sales) compared to $35 million (3.4% of sales) in the same quarter last year and increased by 6% to $332 million (11.0% of sales) in the nine-month period compared to $312 million (8.9% of sales) last year.

Adjusted financial expenses amounted to $84 million in the third quarter, compared to $82 million in the corresponding quarter last year and amounted to $224 million in the nine-month period compared to $259 million last year.

In the third quarter of 2024, the financial expenses were slightly higher due to higher hedging costs on exchange rates, the net impact of a higher Israeli CPI on the ILS-denominated CPI-linked bonds moderated by lower interest paid on loans following a decrease in loans in light of the positive cash flow achieved, better loan mix and improved efficiency of cash management.

In the nine-month period the financial expenses were lower also due to lower interest paid on loans in light of the positive cash flow achieved, better loan mix and improved efficiency of cash management as well as the net impact of a lower Israeli CPI on the ILS-denominated CPI-linked bonds.

Adjusted taxes on income in the third quarter amounted to tax expenses of $6 million, compared to tax expenses of $3 million in the corresponding quarter last year and amounted to expenses of $61 million in the first nine months of the year compared to a tax income of $7 million last year.

Despite reaching losses before tax, the Company recorded tax expenses in the third quarter and first nine months of the year mainly ‎because the losses were primarily incurred by subsidiaries with relatively lower tax rates, while some ‎of them did not create deferred tax assets on the losses. On the other hand, the subsidiaries that ‎generated profit have a higher tax rate. ‎

In first nine months of 2024 the company recorded tax expenses due to the non-‎cash impact of the weakness of the BRL compared with tax income due to stronger BRL in the first nine months of 2023. ‎In the third quarter of 2024 the company recorded tax income due to the non-‎cash impact of the stronger BRL compared with tax expenses due to the weakness of the BRL in the third quarter of 2023. ‎

Net loss reported in the third quarter was $133 million and $259 million in the nine-month period, compared to a net loss of $112 million and $146 million in the corresponding periods last year, respectively.

Adjusted net loss in the third quarter was $78 million and $149 million in the nine-month period, compared to a net loss of $115 million and $135 million in the corresponding periods last year, respectively.

Trade working capital as of September 30, 2024, was $2,218 million compared to $2,742 million as of September 30, 2023. Inventory held by the Company continued to decline from the end of 2023, including inventory of finished goods, and reached $1,740 million as of September 30, 2024, in comparison to $2,129 million as of September 30, 2023. The decrease in working capital was following the Company's implementation of selective procurement practices, which already began in 2023, and which led to a decrease in the level of inventory held by the Company and lower trade payables. The Company also improved its payable terms following implementation of initiatives part of the Company's transformation plan. The decrease in receivables reflected the intensive collections as well as the lower sales.

Cash Flow: Operating cash flow of $159 million and $402 million was generated in the third quarter and first nine-month period in 2024 respectively, compared to $82 million generated in the third quarter and $63 million generated in the nine-month period in 2023. The operating cash flow was significantly improved in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 due to the company maintaining strict procurement practices, intensive collections and an improvement in supplier terms, reflecting implementation of initiatives taken as part of the company's transformation plan.

Net cash used in investing activities was $7 million in the third quarter and $122 million in the first nine-month period in 2024, compared to $69 million and $231 million in the corresponding periods last year, respectively. The lower cash used in investing activities in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 reflected implementation of the Company's transformation plan including the prioritization of investments in its manufacturing facilities as well as prioritization of investments in intangible assets relating to ADAMA's global registrations, in line with the optimization of the Company's portfolio. In the third quarter of 2024, the Company recorded the sale of a real estate asset whereas in the first quarter of 2023 the company completed the acquisition of AgriNova New Zealand.

Free cash flow of $128 million was generated in the third quarter and $179 million generated in the nine-month period compared to $22 million consumed in the third quarter and $276 million consumed in the corresponding periods last year, respectively, reflecting the aforementioned operating and investing cash flow dynamics.

Income Statement Adjustments

 

 

 

Notes:

1.  Amortization of acquisition-related PPA and other acquisition related costs:      
     a.  Amortization of Legacy PPA of 2011 acquisition of Solutions (non-cash): Under ASBE, since the third combined reporting for Q3 2017, the Company has inherited the historical "legacy" amortization charge that ChemChina previously was incurring in respect of its acquisition of Solutions in 2011. This amortization is done in a linear manner on a quarterly basis, most of which will have been completed by the end of 2020.
     b.  Amortization of acquisition-related PPA (non-cash) and other acquisition-related costs: Related mainly to the non-cash amortization of intangible assets created as part of the Purchase Price Allocation (PPA) on acquisitions, with no impact on the ongoing performance of the companies acquired, as well as other M&A-related costs.

2.  Amortization of Transfer assets received and written-up due to 2017 ChemChina-Syngenta transaction (non-cash): The proceeds from the Divestment of crop protection products in connection with the approval by the EU Commission of the acquisition of Syngenta by ChemChina, net of taxes and transaction expenses, were paid to Syngenta in return for the transfer of a portfolio of products in Europe of similar nature and economic value. Since the products acquired from Syngenta are of the same nature and with the same net economic value as those divested, and since in 2018 the Company adjusted for the one-time gain that it made on the divested products, the additional amortization charge incurred due to the written-up value of the acquired assets is also adjusted to present a consistent view of Divestment and Transfer transactions, which had no net impact on the underlying economic performance of the Company. These additional amortization charges will continue until 2032 but at a reducing rate, yet will still be at a meaningful level until 2028.

3.  Accelerated depreciation: These charges relate to accelerated depreciation attributed to the upgrade & relocation programs in China and Israel, in which production assets located in the old production sites in Huai'An and Beer-Sheva are in relocation process to new sites. Since some older production assets may not be able to be relocated, or are not operational, these are depreciated over a shorter period.

4.  Incentive plans: ADAMA granted certain of its employees, a long-term incentive (LTI) in the form of 'phantom' awards linked to the Company's share price. As such, the Company records an expense, or recognizes income, depending on the fluctuation in the Company's share price, regardless of award exercises. To neutralize the impact of such share price movements on the measurement of the Company's performance and expected employee compensation and to reflect the existing phantom awards, in the Company's adjusted financial performance, the LTI is presented on an equity-settled basis in accordance with the value of the existing plan at the grant date.

5.  6. ASBEs classifications COGS impact: according to the ASBE guidelines [IAS 37], certain items (specifically certain transportation costs) are classified under COGS.

7.  ‎Measures to improve efficiencies: ADAMA recorded costs due to certain measures initiated to improve efficiencies mainly personnel changes

8.  Provisions such as legal claims, registration impairment and ‎update of registration depreciation.

9.  Soil and water cleanup and remediation: a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of the Company ‎filed with Israel's Ministry of Environmental Protection a remediation plan regarding ‎its plant in Be'er Sheva in Q2 2024. During Q3 2024 additional expenses were recorded regarding the Company's sites in Israel. ‎

10.  Non-cash, non-recurring items due to revaluation of put options attributed to minority stake in subsidiaries.

11.  Other financing expenses: Expenses mainly deriving from tax claims surcharges and inflation.
