ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (“financial statements”) include the accounts of Glatfelter and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
We prepared these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“generally accepted accounting principles” or “GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission pertaining to interim financial statements. In our opinion, the financial statements reflect all normal, recurring adjustments needed to present fairly our results for the interim periods. When preparing these financial statements, we have assumed you have read the audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Discontinued Operations
The results of operations and cash flows of our former Specialty Papers business have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingencies as of the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management believes the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of these financial statements are reasonable, based upon currently available facts and known circumstances, but recognizes actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). The standard improves reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. ASU 2023-07 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The guidance is to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”). The standard enhances income tax disclosure requirements by requiring specified categories and greater disaggregation within the rate reconciliation table, disclosure of income taxes paid by jurisdiction, and provides clarification on uncertain tax positions and related financial statement impacts. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

PROPOSED MERGER
As previously announced on February 7, 2024, we entered into certain definitive agreements with Berry Global Group, Inc. (“Berry”) for Berry to spin-off and merge the majority of its Health, Hygiene and Specialties segment including its Global Nonwovens and Films business (“HHNF”) with Glatfelter (the “Merger”). The board of directors of both Berry and Glatfelter have unanimously approved the Merger. The Merger is expected to occur through a series of transactions, including a Reverse Morris Trust transaction such that HHNF will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Glatfelter. Upon completion of the Merger, Berry shareholders will hold
90
% of the outstanding shares of Glatfelter and Glatfelter shareholders will continue to hold
10
% of the outstanding shares of Glatfelter. The combined company’s Board of Directors will include
6
members chosen by Berry and
3
chosen from Glatfelter’s existing Board of Directors, with Curt Begle, the current president of the Health, Hygiene & Specialties Division of Berry becoming the Chief Executive Officer. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2024, subject to Glatfelter shareholder approval and customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. Prior to the completion of the Merger, Glatfelter and HHNF will continue to operate as independent companies.

SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
On May 5, 2023 (the “Effective Date”), the Board and shareholders approved an amendment and restatement of the Glatfelter Corporation 2022 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Equity Plan”) to increase the number of shares available for grant under the Equity Plan (as amended and restated, the “Amended Plan”) (collectively, the “LTIP”). The LTIP is a long-term incentive plan, pursuant to which awards may be granted to full-time or part-time employees, officers, non-employee directors, and consultants of the Company or any subsidiary or affiliate of the Company, including stock options, stock-only stock appreciation rights (“SOSARs”), restricted stock awards, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance share awards (“PSAs”), and other share-based awards. The Amended Plan was adopted primarily to increase the number of shares of Company common stock reserved for equity-based awards by
675,000
shares (in addition to any shares that remained available for awards under the Equity Plan as of the Effective Date and any shares subject to outstanding awards granted under the Equity Plan as of the Effective Date). As of March 31, 2024, there were
653,316
shares of common stock available for future issuance under the LTIP.
Pursuant to terms of the LTIP, we have issued to eligible participants RSUs, PSAs and SOSARs.
Restricted Stock Units and Performance Share Awards
In the first three months of 2024, we granted RSUs to employees under our LTIP. The RSUs awarded in 2024 vest over
three years
, with
33
% vesting on December 31, 2024,
33
% on February 28, 2026, and
34
% vesting on February 28, 2027. PSAs were not awarded in 2024. Instead, there was a cash restoration award (paid in cash instead of stock) that vests the same as the RSUs. This cash restoration award is outside of the LTIP. In 2023, we granted RSUs and PSAs to employees under our LTIP. In 2023,
50
% of fair value of the awards granted were RSUs, which vest based on the passage of time, generally over a graded
three-year
period or, in certain instances, the RSUs were cliff vesting after
one
or
three years
. The remaining
50
% of the fair value of the awards granted in 2023 were PSAs. The PSAs awarded vest based on either the achievement of cumulative financial performance targets covering a
two-year
period or based on the
three-year
total shareholder return relative to a broad market index. The performance measures include a minimum, target and maximum performance level providing the grantees an opportunity to receive more or less shares than targeted depending on actual financial performance.
For RSUs, the grant date fair value of the awards, or the closing price per common share on the date of the award, is used to determine the amount of expense to be recognized over the applicable service period. For PSAs, the grant date fair value is estimated using a lattice model. The significant inputs include the stock price, volatility, dividend yield, and risk-free rate of return. Settlement of RSUs and PSAs will be made in shares of our common stock currently held in treasury.
The following table summarizes RSU and PSA activity during periods indicated:

Stock-Only Stock Appreciation Rights
Under terms of the SOSAR, a recipient receives the right to a payment in the form of shares of common stock equal to the difference, if any, in the fair market value of

share of common stock at the time of exercising the SOSAR and the exercise price. All SOSARs are vested, exercisable and have a term of

INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are recognized for the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year, and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our condensed consolidated financial statements or tax returns. The effects of income taxes are measured based on enacted tax laws and rates.
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we had a pretax loss from continuing operations of $
21.0
million and income tax expense of $
5.2
million. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was unfavorably impacted by the jurisdictional mix of pretax results among the Company and its subsidiaries and losses which generated no tax benefit in domestic and certain foreign jurisdictions.
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recorded an increase in the valuation allowance of $
5.2
million for U.S. federal and certain foreign jurisdictions against our net deferred tax assets. In assessing the need for a valuation
- 14 -
allowance, management considers all available positive and negative evidence in its analysis. Based on this analysis, we recorded a valuation allowance for the portion of deferred tax assets where the weight of the evidence indicated it is more likely than not that the deferred assets will not be realized.
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had $
61.6
million and $
60.7
million, respectively, of gross unrecognized tax benefits. As of March 31, 2024, if such benefits were to be recognized, approximately $
59.0
million would be recorded as a component of income tax expense, thereby affecting our effective tax rate.
The amount of income taxes we pay is subject to ongoing audits by federal, state and foreign tax authorities, which often result in proposed assessments. Management performs a comprehensive review of its global tax positions on a quarterly basis and accrues amounts for uncertain tax positions. Based on these reviews and the result of discussions and resolutions of matters with tax authorities and the closure of tax years subject to tax audit, reserves are adjusted as necessary. However, future results may include favorable or unfavorable adjustments to our estimated tax liabilities in the period the assessments are determined or resolved or as statutes are closed. Due to potential resolution of federal, state and foreign examinations, and the lapse of various statutes of limitation, it is reasonably possible our gross unrecognized tax benefits may decrease within the next twelve months by a range of
zero
to $
21.0
million. We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax
positions as income tax expense.

In 2021, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) published Pillar Two Model Rules defining a global minimum tax, which calls for the taxation of large corporations at a minimum rate of 15%. The OECD has since issued administrative guidance providing transition and safe harbor rules around the implementation of the Pillar Two global minimum tax. Effective January 1, 2024, a number of countries have proposed or enacted legislation to implement core elements of the Pillar Two proposal. Pillar Two did not have a significant impact on Glatfelter's first quarter 2024 results. While Glatfelter is monitoring developments and evaluating the potential impact on future periods, Glatfelter does not expect Pillar Two to have a significant impact on its 2024 financial results.

LEASES
We enter into a variety of arrangements in which we are the lessee for the use of automobiles, forklifts and other production equipment, production facilities, warehouses, office space and land. We determine if an arrangement contains a lease at inception. All our lease arrangements are operating leases and are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheet under the caption “Other assets” and the lease obligation is under “Other current liabilities” and “Other long-term liabilities.” We do not have any finance leases.
Operating lease right of use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. ROU assets also include any initial direct costs incurred and any lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date, less lease incentives received. We
- 16 -
use our incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement date in determining the lease liabilities as our leases generally do not provide an implicit rate. For purposes of recording the lease arrangement, the term of lease may include options to extend or terminate when we are reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The following table sets forth information related to our leases as of the periods indicated.

On September 2, 2021, we entered into a restatement agreement as part of a Fourth Amended and Restated $
400.0
million Revolving Credit Facility and a €
220.0
million Term Loan (collectively, the “Credit Agreement”).
On May 9, 2022, we entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement, which was further amended on March 30, 2023. The March 30, 2023 amendment to the Credit Agreement reduced the Revolving Credit Facility to $
250.0
million and had us fully extinguish the €
220.0
million Term Loan. All remaining principal outstanding and accrued interest under the Revolving Credit Facility will be due and payable on September 2, 2026.
The Credit Agreement contains a number of customary covenants for financings of this type that, among other things, restrict our ability to dispose of or create liens on assets, incur additional indebtedness, limits certain intercompany financing arrangements, make acquisitions and engage in mergers or consolidations. The Credit Agreement also contains covenants requiring a minimum debt coverage ratio. As of March 31, 2024, the leverage ratio, as calculated in accordance with the definition in our Credit Agreement, was
3.7
x. A breach of these requirements would give rise to certain remedies under the Revolving Credit Facility, among which is the termination of the agreement.
On March 30, 2023, we entered into a €
250.0
million Term Loan with certain affiliates of Angelo, Gordon & Co., L.P. (“AG Loan”). The net proceeds from the AG Loan were used to extinguish the €
220.0
million Term Loan, to repay a portion of outstanding revolving borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, for working capital and general corporate purposes and to pay estimated fees and expenses. The AG Loan will mature on March 23, 2029 and is prepayable, in whole or in part, at any time at the prepayable premium specified in the Term Loan Agreement. Prior to September 30, 2024, we may prepay some or all of the AG Loan at a "make-whole" premium as specified.
On October 25, 2021, we issued $
500.0
million aggregate principal amount of
4.750
% senior notes due 2029 (the “Notes”). The net proceeds from the offering of the Notes, together with cash on hand, were used to pay the purchase price of the Jacob Holm acquisition, to repay certain indebtedness of Jacob Holm, to repay outstanding revolving borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, and to pay estimated fees and expenses. The Notes will mature on November 15, 2029. The Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at any time at the redemption prices specified in the Indenture. Prior to November 15, 2024, we may redeem some or all of the Notes at a "make-whole" premium as specified in the Indenture.
Glatfelter Gernsbach GmbH (“Gernsbach”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of ours, entered into a series of borrowing agreements with IKB Deutsche Industriebank AG, Düsseldorf (“IKB”). Each of the borrowings require quarterly repayments of principal and interest and provide for representations, warranties and covenants customary for financings of these types. The financial covenants of these borrowings are calculated by reference to the Credit Agreement. These borrowings were fully extinguished on March 14, 2023.
In 2021, Gernsbach also entered into
two
fixed-rate non-amortizing term loans with certain financial institutions. Similar to the IKB loans discussed above, the financial covenants of these borrowings are calculated by reference to the Credit Agreement. On February 28, 2023,
one
of these term loans for €
20.0
million was fully extinguished. The remaining term loan matured in March 2024.
Aggregated unamortized deferred debt issuance costs incurred in connection with all of our outstanding debt totaled $
16.5
million at March 31, 2024. The deferred costs are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the underlying instruments. Amortization expense related to deferred debt issuance costs totaled $
0.9
million and $
2.2
million in 2024 and 2023, respectively.

FINANCIAL DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
As part of our overall risk management practices, we enter into financial derivatives primarily designed to either i) hedge foreign currency risks associated with forecasted transactions (“cash flow hedges”); ii) mitigate the impact that changes in currency exchange rates have on intercompany financing transactions and foreign currency denominated receivables and payables (“foreign currency hedges”); or iii) convert variable-interest-rate debt to fixed rates.
Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments - Cash Flow Hedges
We use currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges to manage our exposure to fluctuations in the currency exchange rates on certain forecasted production costs. Currency forward contracts involve fixing the exchange for delivery of a specified amount of foreign currency on a specified date. As of March 31, 2024, the maturity of currency forward contracts ranged from
one month
to
15
months.
We designate certain currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted raw material purchases, certain production costs or capital expenditures with exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of foreign exchange risk is deferred as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. With respect to hedges of forecasted raw material purchases or production costs, the amount deferred is subsequently reclassified into costs of products sold in the period that inventory produced using the hedged transaction affects earnings. For hedged capital expenditures, deferred gains or losses are reclassified and included in the historical cost of the capital asset and subsequently affect earnings as depreciation is recognized.

Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments – Net Investment Hedge
The €
220
million Term Loan discussed in Note 16 – “
Long-Term Debt”
was designated as a net investment hedge of our Euro functional currency foreign subsidiaries and was extinguished on March 30, 2023 in conjunction with the amendment of the Credit Facility. During the first three months of 2023, we recognized a pre-tax loss of $
3.7
million on the remeasurement of the term loan from changes in currency exchange rates. Such amounts are recorded as a component of Other Comprehensive Income (Loss).
Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments - Foreign Currency Hedges
We also entered into forward foreign exchange contracts to mitigate the impact changes in currency exchange rates have on balance sheet monetary assets and liabilities. None of these contracts are designated as hedges for financial accounting purposes and, accordingly, changes in value of the foreign exchange forward contracts and in the offsetting underlying on-balance-sheet transactions are reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations under the caption “Other, net.”

The amounts set forth in the table above represent the net asset or liability giving effect to rights of offset with each counterparty. The effect of netting the amounts presented above did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position.
The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The fair values of the foreign exchange forward contracts are considered to be Level 2. Foreign currency forward contracts are valued using foreign currency forward and interest rate curves. The fair value of each contract is determined by comparing the contract rate to the forward rate and discounting to present value. Contracts in a gain position are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets under the caption “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” and the value of contracts in a loss position is recorded under the caption “Other current liabilities.”

We expect substantially all of the amounts recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss will be recorded in results of operations within the next

months and the amount ultimately recognized will vary depending on actual market rates.
Credit risk related to derivative activity arises in the event the counterparty fails to meet its obligations to us. This exposure is generally limited to the amounts, if any, by which the counterparty’s obligations exceed our obligation to them. Our policy is to enter into contracts only with financial institutions which meet certain minimum credit ratings.

COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Fox River - Neenah, Wisconsin
Background
We have previously reported that we face liabilities associated with environmental claims arising out of the presence of polychlorina
ted biphenyls (“PCBs”) in sediments in the lower Fox River, on which our former Neenah facility was located, and in the Bay of Green Bay, Wisconsin (collectively, the “Site”). Over the past several years, we and certain other PRPs completed all remedial actions pursuant to applicable consent decrees or a Unilateral Administrative Order
. Under the Glatfelter consent decrees, we are primarily responsible for long-term monitoring and maintenance in OU1-OU4a and for reimbursement of government oversight costs paid after October 2018.
The monitoring activities consist of, among others, testing fish tissue, sampling water quality and sediment, and inspections of the engineered caps. In 2018, we entered into a fixed-price,
30-year
agreement with a third party for the performance of all of our monitoring and maintenance obligations in OU1 through OU4a with limited exceptions, such as, for extraordinary amounts of cap maintenance or replacement. Our obligation under this agreement is included in our total reserve for the Site. We are obligated to make the regular payments under that fixed-price contract until the remaining amount due is less than the OU1 escrow account balance. We are permitted to pay for this contract using the remaining balance of the escrow account established by us and WTM I Company (“WTM I”) another PRP, under the OU1 consent decree during any period that the balance in the escrow account exceeds the amount due under our fixed-price contract. As of March 31, 2024, the balance in the escrow exceeds the amounts due under the fixed-price contract by approximately $
0.4
million. At March 31, 2024, the escrow account balance totaled $
9.0
million which is included in the condensed consolidated balance sheet under the caption “Other assets.”
Under the consent decree, we are responsible for reimbursement of government oversight costs paid from October 2018 and later over approximately the next
30
years. We anticipate that oversight costs will decline as activities at the site have transitioned from remediation to long-term monitoring and maintenance.
Reserves for the Site
Our reserve for past and future government oversight costs and long-term monitoring and maintenance totaled $
12.0
million at March 31, 2024, of which $
0.3
million is recorded in the accompanying March 31, 2024 condensed consolidated balance sheet under the caption “Environmental liabilities” and the remaining $
11.7
million is recorded under the caption “Other long-term liabilities.”
Range of Reasonably Possible Outcomes
Based on our analysis of all available information, including but not limited to decisions of the courts, official documents such as records of decision, discussions with legal counsel, cost estimates for future monitoring and maintenance and other post-remediation costs to be performed at the Site, we do not believe that our costs associated with the Fox River matter could exceed the aggregate amounts accrued by a material amount.

Segments
Results of individual operating segments are presented based on our management accounting practices and management structure. There is no comprehensive, authoritative body of guidance for management accounting equivalent to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; therefore, the financial results of individual segments are not necessarily comparable with similar information for any other company. The management accounting process uses assumptions and allocations to measure performance of the segments. Methodologies are refined from time to time as management accounting practices are enhanced and businesses change. The costs incurred by support areas not directly aligned with the segment are allocated primarily based on an estimated utilization of support area services or are included in “Other and Unallocated” in the table set forth above.
- 24 -
Management evaluates results of operations of the operating segments before certain corporate level costs and the effects of certain gains or losses not considered to be related to the core business operations. Management believes that this is a more meaningful representation of the operating performance of its core businesses, the profitability of the segments and the extent of cash flow generated from these core operations. Such amounts are presented under the caption “Other and Unallocated.” In the evaluation of operating segments results, management does not use any measures of total assets. This presentation is aligned with the management and operating structure of our company. It is also on this basis that the Company’s performance is evaluated internally and by the Company’s Board of Directors.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the information in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included herein and Glatfelter’s Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K ("2023 Form 10-K").
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical fact, including statements regarding industry prospects and future consolidated financial position or results of operations, made in this Report on Form 10-Q are forward looking. We use words such as “anticipates”, “believes”, “expects”, “future”, “intends” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements reflect management’s current expectations and are inherently uncertain. Our actual results may differ significantly from such expectations. The following discussion includes forward-looking statements all of which are inherently difficult to predict. Although we make such statements based on assumptions that we believe to be reasonable, there can be no assurance that actual results will not differ materially from our expectations. Accordingly, we identify the following important factors, among others, which could cause our results to differ from any results that might be projected, forecasted or estimated in any such forward-looking statements:
i.
risks related to the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine and related sanctions and its impact on our production, sales, supply chain, cost of energy, and availability of energy due to natural gas supply issues into Europe;
ii.
disruptions of our global supply chain, including the availability of key raw materials and transportation for the delivery of critical inputs and of products to customers, and the increase in the costs of transporting materials and products;
iii.
risks associated with our ability to increase selling prices quickly or sufficiently enough to recover rapid cost inflation in our raw materials, energy, freight and other costs, and the potential reduction or loss of sales due to price increases;
iv.
variations in demand for our products, including the impact of unplanned market-related downtime, variations in product pricing, or product substitution;
v.
the impact of competition, changes in industry production capacity, including the construction of new facilities or new machines, the closing of facilities and incremental changes due to capital expenditures or productivity increases;
vi.
risks associated with our international operations, including local economic and political environments and fluctuations in currency exchange rates;
vii.
our ability to develop new, high value-added products;
viii.
changes in the price or availability of raw materials we use, particularly woodpulp, pulp substitutes, synthetic pulp, other specialty fibers and abaca fiber;
ix.
changes in energy-related prices and commodity raw materials with an energy component;
x.
the impact of unplanned production interruption at our facilities or at any of our key suppliers;
xi.
disruptions in production and/or increased costs due to labor disputes;
xii.
the gain or loss of significant customers and/or on-going viability of such customers;
xiii.
the impact of war and terrorism;
xiv.
the impact of unfavorable outcomes of audits by various state, federal or international tax authorities or changes in pre-tax income and its impact on the valuation of deferred taxes; and
xv.
enactment of adverse state, federal or foreign tax or other legislation or changes in government legislation, policy or regulation.
Introduction
We manufacture a wide array of engineered materials and manage our company along three operating segments:
•
Airlaid Materials
with sales of airlaid nonwoven fabric-like materials used in feminine hygiene products, adult incontinence products, tabletop, specialty wipes, home care products and other airlaid applications;
•
Composite Fibers
with sales of single-serve tea and coffee filtration papers, wallcovering base materials, composite laminate papers, technical specialties including substrates for electrical applications, and metallized products; and
•
Spunlace
with sales of premium quality spunlace nonwovens for critical cleaning, high-performance materials, personal care, hygiene and medical applications.
- 26 -
The former Specialty Papers business’ results of operations and financial condition are reported as discontinued operations. Following is a discussion and analysis primarily of the financial results of operations and financial condition of our continuing operations.
As previously announced on February 7, 2024, we entered into certain definitive agreements with Berry Global Group, Inc. (“Berry”) for Berry to spin-off and merge the majority of its Health, Hygiene and Specialties segment including its Global Nonwovens and Films business (“HHNF”) with Glatfelter (the “Merger”). The board of directors of both Berry and Glatfelter have unanimously approved the Merger. The Merger is expected to occur through a series of transactions, including a Reverse Morris Trust transaction such that HHNF will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Glatfelter. Upon completion of the Merger, Berry shareholders will hold 90% of the outstanding shares of Glatfelter and Glatfelter shareholders will continue to hold 10% of the outstanding shares of Glatfelter. The combined company’s Board of Directors will include 6 members chosen by Berry and 3 chosen from Glatfelter’s existing Board of Directors, with Curt Begle, the current president of the Health, Hygiene & Specialties Division of Berry becoming the Chief Executive Officer. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2024, subject to Glatfelter shareholder approval and customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. Prior to the completion of the Merger, Glatfelter and HHNF will continue to operate as independent companies.

The reported results are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and reflect the impact of a number of significant items including strategic initiatives, turnaround strategy costs, debt refinancing, and CEO transition costs, among others. Our operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2024 reflect: i) the impact of European market challenges resulting in lower sales volumes, as well as, lower production; ii) higher interest expense stemming from the debt refinancing in the first quarter of 2023; iii) costs incurred related to the merger with Berry’s HHNF business.
In addition to the results reported in accordance with GAAP, we evaluate our performance using financial metrics not calculated in accordance with GAAP, including adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and share-based compensation (“Adjusted EBITDA”). On an adjusted earnings basis, a non-GAAP measure, we had an adjusted loss from continuing operations of $14.9 million, or $(0.33) per share for the first quarter of 2024, compared with a loss of $5.9 million, or $(0.13) per share, a year ago. Our Adjusted EBITDA, also a non-GAAP measure, was $23.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to $24.8 million for the same period in 2023. We disclose this information to allow investors to evaluate our performance exclusive of certain items that impact the comparability of results from period to period and we believe it is helpful in understanding underlying operating trends and cash flow generation.
- 27 -
Adjusted earnings consists of net income determined in accordance with GAAP adjusted to exclude the impact of the following:
Strategic initiatives.
These adjustments primarily reflect professional and legal fees and other costs incurred which are directly related to evaluating and executing certain strategic initiatives including costs associated with the Berry HHNF merger.
Turnaround Strategy costs.
This adjustment reflects costs incurred in connection with the Company's Turnaround Strategy initiated in 2022 under its new chief executive officer to drive operational and financial improvement. These costs are primarily related to professional services fees and employee separation costs.
Debt refinancing costs.
Represents charges to write-off unamortized debt issuance costs in connection with the extinguishment of the Company’s €220.0 million Term Loan and IKB loans, as well as the amendment to the Company's credit facility. These costs also include an early repayment penalty related to the extinguishment of the IKB loans.
CEO transition costs.
This adjustment reflects a non-cash pension settlement charge associated with the separation of our former CEO related to a lump-sum distribution made in Q1 2023 under the terms of his non-qualified pension plan agreement.
Timberland sales and related costs.
These adjustments exclude gains from the sales of timberlands as these items are not considered to be part of our core business, ongoing results of operations or cash flows. These adjustments are irregular in timing and amount and may benefit our operating results.
These adjustments are each unique and not considered to be on-going in nature. The transactions are irregular in timing and amount and may significantly impact our operating performance. As such, these items may not be indicative of our past or future performance and therefore are excluded for comparability purposes.
Adjusted earnings and adjusted EBITDA are considered measures not calculated in accordance with GAAP, and therefore are non-GAAP measures. The non-GAAP financial information should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Segments
Results of individual operating segments are presented based on our management accounting practices and management structure. There is no comprehensive, authoritative body of guidance for management accounting equivalent to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; therefore, the financial results of individual segments are not necessarily comparable with similar information for any other company. The management accounting process uses assumptions and allocations to measure performance of the segments. Methodologies are refined from time to time as management accounting practices are enhanced and businesses change. The costs incurred by support areas not directly aligned with the segment are allocated primarily based on an estimated utilization of support area services or are included in “Other and Unallocated” in the table set forth above.
Management evaluates results of operations of the operating segments before certain corporate level costs and the effects of certain gains or losses not considered to be related to the core business operations. Management believes that this is a more meaningful representation of the operating performance of its core businesses, the profitability of the segments
- 30 -
and the extent of cash flow generated from these core operations. Such amounts are presented under the caption “Other and Unallocated.” In the evaluation of operating segments results, management does not use any measures of total assets. This presentation is aligned with the management and operating structure of our company. It is also on this basis that the Company’s performance is evaluated internally and by the Company’s Board of Directors.

Net sales
totaled $327.3 million and $378.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Net sales for Airlaid Materials, Composite Fibers and Spunlace decreased by 18.0%, 13.1% and 7.9%, respectively, on a constant currency basis.
Airlaid Materials’
first quarter net sales decreased $27.9 million in the year-over-year comparison mainly driven by lower selling prices from cost pass-through arrangements and lower energy surcharges in Europe as both raw materials and energy input costs declined compared to last year. Shipments were 3.7% lower driven by declines in the hygiene categories mainly due to pricing actions taken in 2023 to retain margins in this category. Currency translation was favorable by $0.7 million.
Airlaid Materials’ 2024 first quarter operating income of $5.0 million was $9.0 million lower than the first quarter operating income in 2023. Lower shipments and product mix negatively impacted results by $1.8 million. Selling price decreases and lower energy surcharges of $20.3 million offset lower raw material, energy, and other inflationary costs of $17.9 million. For the first quarter of 2024, primary raw material input costs decreased by $15.3 million, or 19%. Energy costs decreased by $2.0 million, or 20%, compared to 2023. As of March 31, 2024, Airlaid Materials had approximately 77% of its net sales with contracts with pass-through provisions. Operations and other costs were unfavorable by $3.7 million mainly driven by lower production and higher wage inflation. The impact of currency and related hedging negatively impacted earnings by $1.0 million. The primary drivers of the change in Airlaid Materials’ operating income are summarized in the following chart (presented in millions):
- 31 -
Composite Fibers’
net sales were $16.4 million lower in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 2023 due to lower selling prices
of $11.1 million. Even though s
hipments were higher 0.7%, it was largely driven by composite laminates category that have lower average selling prices compared to other inclined wire products lowering the revenue for the quarter. Currency translation was favorable by $0.9 million.
Composite Fibers 2024 first quarter operating income of $8.3 million was $2.1 million higher than the first quarter operating income in 2023. The price-cost gap continued to trend positive this quarter as the decrease in input prices paid for raw materials, energy, freight, and packaging were more favorable than selling price declines, resulting in earnings improvement of $2.5 million. First quarter energy costs were lower by $2.9 million, or 12% compared to 2023 while primary raw material input costs decreased by $10.6 million, or 7%, compared to 2023. As of March 31, 2024, Composite Fibers had approximately 46% of its net sales with contracts with pass-through provisions. Operations and other costs were unfavorable by $0.5 million mainly driven by lower production. The impact of currency and related hedging negatively impacted earnings by $0.2 million. The primary drivers of the change in Composite Fibers’ operating income are summarized in the following chart (presented in millions):
Spunlace’s
net sales were $6.6 million lower in the first quarter of 2024 compared to 2023, mainly driven by lower selling prices of $4.2 million due to cost pass-through arrangements and lower year over year shipments of 2.0%. Currency translation was slightly favorable by $0.2 million.
Spunlace's 2024 first quarter operating income of $2.8 million was $4.8 million higher compared to the operating loss of $2.0 million in 2023. Lower selling prices and energy surcharges were unfavorable by $4.2 million but were more than fully offset by lower raw material and energy costs of $7.4 million. In the first quarter of 2024, primary raw material input costs decreased by $7 million, or 16% while energy costs were lower 6% compared to 2023. As of March 31, 2024, Spunlace had approximately 49% of its net sales with contracts with pass-through provisions. Operations and others were
- 32 -
favorable by $2.2 million as actions taken to improve operations, reduce overall spending, and headcount actions provided positive results. The impact of currency and related hedging negatively impacted earnings by $0.2 million. The primary drivers of the change in Spunlace’s operating income are summarized in the following chart (presented in millions):
Other and Unallocated
The amount of operating expense not allocated to a reporting segment in the Segment Financial Information totaled $17.5 million in the first quarter of 2024 compared with $11.9 million in the same period a year ago. Excluding the items identified to present “adjusted earnings,” unallocated expenses for the first quarter of 202
4 decreased $0.7 million
compared to the first quarter of 2023 mainly driven by lower professional services costs.
Income taxes
In the first quarter of 2024, our U.S. GAAP pre-tax loss from continuing operations totaled $21.0 million and we recorded an income tax provision of $5.2 million, which primarily related to the tax provision for foreign jurisdictions, reserves for uncertain tax positions, and valu
ation allowances for domestic and foreign jurisdiction losses for which no tax benefit could be recognized. The comparable amounts in the same quarter of 2023 were a pre-tax loss of
$9.5
million and an income tax provision of
$3.7
million.
Foreign Currency
We own and operate facilities in Canada, Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Spain, and the Philippines. The functional currency of our Canadian operations is the U.S. dollar. However, in Germany, France and Spain, it is the euro, in the UK, it is the British pound sterling, and in the Philippines the functional currency is the peso. On an annual basis, our euro denominated net sales exceeds euro expenses by an estimated €190 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the average currency exchange rate was 1.09 dollar/euro compared with 1.01 in the same period of 2023. With respect to the British pound sterling, Canadian dollar, and Philippine peso, we have differing amounts of inflows and outflows of these currencies, although to a lesser degree than the euro. As a result, we are exposed to changes in currency exchange rates and such changes could be significant. The translation of the results from international operations into U.S. dollars is subject to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
The table below summarizes the translation impact on reported results that changes in currency exchange rates had on our non-U.S. based operations from the conversion of these operation’s results for the first quarter of 2024.

At March 31, 2024, we had $30.2 million in cash and cash equivalents (“cash”) held by both domestic and foreign subsidiaries. Approximately 99.6% of our cash and cash equivalents is held by our foreign subsidiaries but could be repatriated without incurring a significant amount of additional taxes.
Cash used by operating activities in the first three months of 2024 totaled $33.5 million compared with $30.6 million in the same period a year ago
. The increase in cash used was primarily due to an increase in interest paid of $5.4 million due to the higher interest rates on our debt stemming from the debt refinancing in the first quarter of 2023, an increase in working capital usage of approximately $2.1 million and income taxes paid of $1.1 million. Operating cash improved $5.8 million primarily due to a lump-sum payment in Q1 2023 to our former CEO under the terms of his non-qualified pension plan.
Net cash used by investing activities was $7.5 million in the first three months of 2024 compared with $8.8 million in the same period a year ago. Capital expenditures totaled $7.5 million and $9.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Capital expenditures are expected to total between $35 million and $40 million in 2024.
Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $20.8 million in the first three months of 2024 compared with $15.2 million in the same period of 2023. The change in financing activities primarily reflects additional borrowings under our existing revolving credit facility . In 2023, we entered into a €250.0 million Term Loan in which the proceeds were used to fully extinguish the €220.0 million Term Loan, the IKB term loans and reduced the revolving credit facility balance.
As discussed in Item 1 - Financial Information, Note - 15, our Credit Agreement and AG Loan contains a number of customary compliance covenants. As of March 31, 2024, the leverage ratio, as calculated in accordance with the definition in our Credit Agreement and AG Loan, was 3.7x, well within the maximum limit. A breach of these requirements would give rise to certain remedies under the Credit Agreement and AG Loan, among which are the termination, and accelerated repayment of the outstanding borrowings plus accrued and unpaid interest. As discussed in Note 15 -
“Long Term Debt,”
on March 30, 2023, we amended our Credit Agreement to permit the maximum leverage ratio (calculated as consolidated senior secured debt to consolidated adjusted EBITDA) to be 4.25 to 1.0 through the quarter ended December 31, 2024, stepping down to 4.0 to 1.0 at March 31, 2025, and 3.50 to 1.0 at March 31, 2026.

Our Board of Directors determines what, if any, dividends will be paid to our shareholders. Since the third quarter of 2022, our Board of Directors suspended the Company’s quarterly cash dividend to focus efforts on optimizing the operational and financial results of the business. As such, we paid no cash dividends in the first three months of 2024 or 2023.
We are subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations intended to protect the environment, as well as human health and safety. At various times, we have incurred significant costs to comply with these regulations and we could incur additional costs as new regulations are developed or regulatory priorities change.
At March 31, 2024, we had ample liquidity consisting of $30.2 million of cash on hand and $53.4 million of capacity under our revolving credit facility. We expect to meet all of our near and long-term cash needs from a combination of operating cash flow, cash and cash equivalents, our existing credit facility and other long-term debt.
Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had not entered into any off-balance-sheet arrangements. Financial derivative instruments, to which we are a party, and guarantees of indebtedness, which solely consist of obligations of subsidiaries, are reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets included herein in Item 1 – Financial Statements.

Our market risk exposure primarily results from changes in interest rates and currency exchange rates. The table above presents the average principal outstanding and related interest rates for the next five years for debt outstanding as of March 31, 2024. Fair values included herein have been determined based upon rates currently available to us for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.
At March 31, 2024, we had $884.7 million of long-term debt, of which $119.2 million, or 13.5%, was at variable interest rates. Variable-rate debt represents borrowings under our credit agreement. The fixed-rate Term Loans are euro-based borrowings and thus the value of which is also subject to currency risk. Variable-rate debt outstanding represents borrowings under our revolving credit agreement and a euro-denominated term loan which accrue interest based on one-month LIBOR plus a margin.
At March 31, 2024, the weighted-average interest rate paid was equal to 8.34%. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase in the interest rate on variable rate debt would increase annual interest expense by $1.2 million. In the event rates are 100 basis points lower, interest expense would be $1.2 million lower.
As part of our overall risk management practices, we enter into financial derivatives primarily designed to either i) hedge currency risks associated with forecasted transactions – “cash flow hedges”; or ii) mitigate the impact that changes in currency exchange rates have on intercompany financing transactions and foreign currency denominated receivables and payables – “foreign currency hedges.” For a more complete discussion of this activity, refer to Item 8 – Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Note 17 -
“Financial Derivatives and Hedging Activities.”
We are subject to certain risks associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates to the extent our operations are conducted in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. On an annual basis, our euro denominated net sales is estimated to exceed euro expenses by approximately €170 million. With respect to the British pound sterling, Canadian dollar, and Philippine peso, we have greater outflows than inflows of these currencies, although to a lesser degree. As a result, particularly with respect to the euro, we are exposed to changes in currency exchange rates and such changes could be significant.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preceding discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial position and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net sales and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to long-lived assets, environmental liabilities, and income taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. We believe that our policies for long- and indefinite-lived assets, environmental liabilities and income taxes represent the most significant and subjective estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements and are therefore considered our critical accounting policies and estimates.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, there were no changes in our critical accounting policies or estimates. See Note 2 — Accounting Policies, of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, as filed with the SEC, for additional information regarding our critical accounting policies.
- 36 -
Long- and indefinite-lived Assets
We evaluate the recoverability of our long- and indefinite-lived assets, including plant, equipment, timberlands, goodwill, and other intangible assets periodically or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually during the fourth quarter, or more frequently if impairment indicators are present.
The fair value of our reporting units, which are also our operating segments, is determined using a market approach and a discounted cash flow model. Our evaluations include a variety of qualitative factors and analyses based on estimates of future cash flows expected to be generated from the use of the underlying assets, trends or other determinants of fair value. If the value of an asset determined by these evaluations is less than its carrying amount, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and the carrying value of the asset. At March 31, 2024, Airlaid Materials was our only operating segment with goodwill. Our Airlaid Materials segment’s fair value exceeded its carrying value at the time of its last valuation performed in connection with the last annual impairment test in the fourth quarter of 2023 by approximately 19%. Airlaid Material’s fair value, as well as the asset groups within each of our operating segments, could be impacted by factors such as unexpected changes in market demand for our products, the impact of competition, and the inability to successfully adjust selling prices in response to changes in inflation, among other factors. Future adverse changes such as these or in market conditions or poor operating results of the related business may indicate an inability to recover the carrying value of the assets, thereby possibly requiring an impairment charge in the future.
