First Quarter Results
For the quarter ended March 31, 2016, reported sales decreased 1% to $582 million from $590 million a year ago. Core sales, which exclude the negative impact from changes in currency exchange rates and any contribution from the Mega Airless acquisition, increased by 2%.
First Quarter Segment Sales Analysis (Change Over Prior Year) Beauty + Food + Total Home Pharma Beverage AptarGroup Core Sales Growth (1 %) 5 % 7 % 2 % Acquisitions 2 % -- -- 1 % Currency Effects (1) (6 %) (3 %) (3 %) (4 %) Total Reported Sales Growth (5 %) 2 % 4 % (1 %) (1) - Currency effects are approximated by translating last year's amounts at this year's foreign exchange rates.Commenting on the quarter, Stephen Hagge, President and CEO, said, “The diversity of our business continues to be a key strength. Despite some lingering softness in certain markets, decreased tooling sales, and the passing through of lower resin costs, we achieved core sales growth excluding currency translation effects and before including any results of the recently acquired Mega Airless business. We continued to leverage our robust product portfolio to help our customers bring new products to market across each segment. We also performed well operationally with a focus on efficiencies and cost containment, and grew adjusted earnings per share and expanded our adjusted EBITDA margin over the prior year.”
AptarGroup reported earnings per share of $0.67 compared to $0.70 per share a year ago. First quarter 2016 earnings per share include the negative impact of costs to complete the Mega Airless acquisition, which totaled approximately $0.06 per share, and a net loss from Mega Airless of approximately $0.02 per share that was due to the negative impact of certain non-recurring purchase accounting adjustments related to inventory. In addition, first quarter 2016 earnings were positively affected by unusual tax items which totaled approximately $0.04 per share. Excluding the foregoing items, adjusted earnings per share for the first quarter of 2016 totaled $0.71 per share and this compares to $0.69 per share in the prior year after neutralizing foreign currency exchange rate effects.
Outlook
Commenting on AptarGroup’s outlook, Hagge said, “Looking to the second quarter, our project dialog with customers remains at a good level and I am optimistic that we will continue to grow our business. Even though we will be comparing to strong results from the prior year, we expect continued core sales growth from our Pharma and Food + Beverage segments. Our Beauty + Home segment, which has struggled to achieve top line growth the past year, is also expected to grow core sales over the prior year excluding any positive impact from the Mega Airless acquisition. Additionally, we will continue our diligent focus on cost containment as we invest in growth opportunities.”
AptarGroup expects earnings per share for the second quarter to be in the range of $0.87-$0.92 including approximately $0.02 per share of positive contribution from the Mega Airless acquisition. This range compares to $0.81 per share in the prior year after excluding approximately $0.08 per share of income recorded in the second quarter of 2015 related to a change in inventory valuation methods and after prior year earnings per share have been adjusted to reflect comparable foreign currency exchange rates. Prior year second quarter reported earnings per share were $0.90.
Cash Dividend
As previously reported, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 per share. The payment date is May 18, 2016, to stockholders of record as of April 27, 2016.

Presentation of Non-GAAP Information
This press release refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted earnings per share, adjusted EBIT and adjusted EBITDA, which exclude the impact of costs related to the recently closed Mega Airless acquisition, results of operations of Mega Airless that include purchase accounting adjustments, and unusual items included in the provision for income taxes (primarily a significant tax refund) that were recorded in the first quarter of 2016, and income from a change in the method of valuing inventory (from LIFO to FIFO) that was recorded in the second quarter of 2015. Comparable core sales and adjusted earnings per share also exclude the impact of foreign currency translation effects. Non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures provided by other companies. AptarGroup's management believes it is useful to present these non-GAAP financial measures 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 AptarGroup’s core operating performance. 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 each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is included in the accompanying tables.
