Albemarle Reports Second Quarter 2024 Results
CHARLOTTE, N.C. – July 31, 2024 - Albemarle Corporation (NYSE: ALB), a global leader in providing essential elements for mobility, energy, connectivity and health, today announced its results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.
Second-Quarter 2024 and Recent Highlights
(Unless otherwise stated, all percentage changes represent year-over-year comparisons)
•Net sales of $1.4 billion, as lower pricing year-over-year was partly offset by Energy Storage volume growth of 37% as new capacity additions ramp
•Net loss of ($188) million, or ($1.96) per diluted share attributable to common shareholders, which included an after-tax charge of $215 million related to capital project asset write-offs and associated contract cancellation costs
•Adjusted diluted EPS attributable to common shareholders of $0.04
•Adjusted EBITDA of $386 million, up sequentially, driven by higher equity income from increased Talison JV sales volumes
•Cash from operations of $363 million, an increase of $289 million year-over-year, driven by higher Talison JV dividends and working capital improvements
•Delivered more than $150 million in productivity benefits; on track to exceed the company’s full-year restructuring and productivity target by 50%
•Maintaining full-year outlook considerations; notably, the previously published $15/kg scenario is expected to apply even assuming lower July market pricing persists for the remainder of the year
•Initiating comprehensive review of cost and operating structure to maintain competitive position, while addressing current end-market realities, including immediate footprint changes at the Kemerton, Australia site
“Our operational mindset continued to serve us well in the second quarter as Albemarle progressed important organic growth initiatives while taking actions to maintain our long-term competitive position,” said Kent Masters, Albemarle’s chairman and CEO. “We achieved the first commercial sales of product from our Meishan conversion plant and delivered more than $150 million in productivity benefits. We are also maintaining our full-year 2024 corporate outlook considerations.”
Masters continued, “Building on the progress already underway, we are announcing a comprehensive review of our cost and operating structure, beginning with immediate footprint actions at our Kemerton site in Australia. The review and steps underway will maintain Albemarle’s competitive position and ensure we execute with agility today and in the future.”
Announcement of Asset and Cost Actions and Initiation of Review to Optimize Cost and Operating Structure
Albemarle announced today asset and cost actions designed to enhance its long-term competitiveness as part of a comprehensive review of its cost and operating structure. The review will help ensure that Albemarle maintains its competitive position throughout the cycle and is positioned for long-term value creation as it navigates end-market challenges, primarily in the lithium value chain. The asset and cost actions announced today include placing Kemerton Train 2 in care and maintenance, stopping construction on Kemerton Train 3, and focusing on optimizing and ramping Kemerton Train 1. As a result, Albemarle expects to recognize a charge in the range of $0.9-$1.1 billion as an exceptional item in the company’s third-quarter 2024 results.
Today’s announcement builds on the proactive measures announced by Albemarle in January 2024 to re-phase its organic growth investments and optimize its cost structure. Regarding those measures, in the second quarter, Albemarle delivered more than $150 million in productivity and restructuring cost improvements and is on track to exceed the company’s initial target by approximately 50%. During the second quarter of 2024, the company recorded an after-tax charge of $215 million primarily related to stopping construction on Kemerton Train 4 and other capital project asset write-offs and associated contract cancellation costs.
Total Corporate Outlook Considerations
The company is maintaining its prior full-year outlook considerations, which are based on observed lithium market price scenarios. Notably, the previously published $15/kg range is expected to apply even when assuming that lower July market pricing persists for the remainder of the year, due to enterprise-wide cost improvements, strong volume growth, higher shipments from the Talison JV, and Energy Storage contract performance. These factors are expected to more than offset lower pricing and a reduced Specialties outlook.
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Total Corporate FY 2024E Including Energy Storage Scenarios |
Observed market price case(a) | Recent pricing | Q4 2023 average | H2 2023 average |
Average lithium market price ($/kg LCE)(a) | $12-15 | ~$20 | ~$25 |
Net sales | $5.5 - $6.2 billion | $6.1 - $6.8 billion | $6.9 - $7.6 billion |
Adjusted EBITDA(b)(c) | $0.9 - $1.2 billion | $1.6 - $1.8 billion | $2.3 - $2.6 billion |
Weighted-average common shares outstanding (diluted)(d) | ~118 million | ~118 million | 135 - 139 million |
(a) Price represents blend of relevant Asia and China market indices for the periods referenced.
(b) The company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP, as the company is unable to estimate significant non-recurring or unusual items without unreasonable effort. See “Additional Information regarding Non-GAAP Measures” for more information.
(c) Presented under updated adjusted EBITDA definition as of 2024. FY23 adjusted EBITDA under updated definition would be $3.5B. See Non-GAAP Reconciliations for further details.
(d) Each quarter, Albemarle will report the more dilutive of either: 1) adding the underlying shares in the mandatory to the share count or 2) reducing Albemarle’s net income to common shareholders by the mandatory dividend. The 20-day volume-weighted average common share price will be used in determining the underlying shares to be added to the share count.
2024 Other Corporate Outlook Considerations
The company is reducing its Specialties adjusted EBITDA outlook due to a slower than expected market rebound and higher logistics costs related to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. Capital expenditures are now expected to be at the high-end of $1.7 to $1.8 billion related to timing of capital spending. Depreciation and amortization reflects a tighter range in light of year-to-date expense. Lower expected corporate costs reflect favorable interest income and on-going cost and productivity improvements. Lower interest and financing expenses reflect the repayment of short-term debt. Below are outlook considerations updated from our first quarter earnings release issued on May 1, 2024. All other corporate outlook considerations are unchanged.
| | | | | |
| Other FY 2024E Considerations |
Specialties adj. EBITDA | $210 - $260 million |
Capital expenditures | $1.7 - $1.8 billion |
Depreciation and amortization | $580 - $630 million |

(b) For comparability, 2023 figures presented under adjusted EBITDA definition that the company adopted beginning in 2024.
(c) Totals may not add due to rounding.
Net sales for the second quarter of 2024 were $1.4 billion compared to $2.4 billion for the prior-year quarter, a year-over-year decline of 40% driven primarily by lower pricing in Energy Storage. Net loss attributable to Albemarle of ($188) million decreased by $838 million. During the second quarter of 2024, we recorded a charge of $215 million after income taxes related to capital project asset write-offs and associated contract cancellation costs. Adjusted EBITDA of $386 million declined by $880 million from the prior-year quarter primarily due to margin compression and reduced equity earnings as a result of lower lithium market pricing, which more than offset favorable volume growth. Sequentially, adjusted EBITDA rose, driven by higher equity income from increased sales volumes at the Talison JV.
The effective income tax rate for the second quarter of 2024 was 6.2% compared to 25.5% in the same period of 2023. On an adjusted basis, the effective income tax rates were (25.9)% and 12.9% for the second quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively, with the decrease primarily due to changes in the geographic income mix and the impact of a valuation allowance for losses in certain entities in China.
Energy Storage Results | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
In millions | Q2 2024 | | Q2 2023 | | $ Change | | % Change |
Net Sales | $ | 830.1 | | | $ | 1,763.1 | | | $ | (933.0) | | | (52.9) | % |
Adjusted EBITDA | $ | 283.0 | | | $ | 1,165.1 | | | $ | (882.1) | | | (75.7) | % |
Energy Storage net sales for the second quarter of 2024 were $830 million, a decrease of $933 million, or 53%, due to lower pricing (-89%), which more than offset higher volumes (+37%) related to the ramp of lithium projects, including the La Negra expansion in Chile and the processing plant in Qinzhou, China, and sales of chemical-grade spodumene. Adjusted EBITDA of $283 million decreased $882 million, driven by margin compression from lower lithium market pricing and reduced equity earnings as a result of lower pricing, which more than offset favorable volume growth. Sequentially, adjusted EBITDA rose $85 million, driven by higher equity income from increased Talison JV sales volumes and further volume ramp of new facilities.
Specialties Results | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
In millions | Q2 2024 | | Q2 2023 | | $ Change | | % Change |
Net Sales | $ | 334.6 | | | $ | 371.3 | | | $ | (36.7) | | | (9.9) | % |
Adjusted EBITDA | $ | 54.2 | | | $ | 60.2 | | | $ | (6.0) | | | (10.0) | % |
Specialties net sales for the second quarter of 2024 were $335 million, a decrease of $37 million, or 10%, primarily due to lower prices (-18%), which more than offset higher volumes (+9%). Adjusted EBITDA of $54 million decreased $6 million versus the year-ago quarter. Net sales and adjusted EBITDA were sequentially higher, driven by improved end-market demand and the absence of planned and unplanned maintenance outages that impacted results in the prior quarter.
Ketjen Results | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
In millions | Q2 2024 | | Q2 2023 | | $ Change | | % Change |
Net Sales | $ | 265.7 | | | $ | 235.8 | | | $ | 29.9 | | | 12.7 | % |
Adjusted EBITDA | $ | 37.8 | | | $ | 42.9 | | | $ | (5.0) | | | (11.8) | % |
Ketjen net sales of $266 million for the second quarter of 2024 were up 13% compared to the prior-year quarter due to higher volumes (+14%), partially offset by lower prices (-1%), primarily from clean fuel technologies. Adjusted EBITDA of $38 million decreased $5 million as the prior-year adjusted EBITDA included a one-time insurance claim receipt.
Cash Flow and Capital Deployment
Second-quarter cash from operations of $363 million increased by $289 million versus the prior year, driven by higher Talison JV dividends and working capital improvements. Year-to-date cash from operations of $461 million decreased $334 million versus the prior-year period, driven by lower adjusted EBITDA and reduced dividends received from equity investments, partially offset by inflows from working capital. Year-to-date capital expenditures of $1.0 billion increased by $108 million versus the prior-year period due to the timing of project spend. Capital expenditures for the full-year 2024 are now expected to be at the high-end of $1.7 billion to $1.8 billion related to timing of capital spending.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
As of June 30, 2024, Albemarle had estimated liquidity of approximately $3.5 billion, including $1.8 billion of cash and cash equivalents, $1.5 billion available under its revolver and $144 million available under other credit lines. Total debt was $3.5 billion, representing a debt covenant net debt to adjusted EBITDA of approximately 2.1 times.

Additional Information regarding Non-GAAP Measures
It should be noted that adjusted net income attributable to Albemarle Corporation, adjusted net income attributable to Albemarle Corporation common shareholders, adjusted diluted earnings per share attributable to common shareholders, non-operating pension and other post-employment benefit (“OPEB”) items per diluted share, non-recurring and other unusual items per diluted share, adjusted effective income tax rates, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA (on a consolidated basis), EBITDA margin and adjusted EBITDA margin are financial measures that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as alternatives to Net (loss) income attributable to Albemarle Corporation (“earnings”) or other comparable measures calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP. These measures are presented here to provide additional useful measurements to review the company’s operations, provide transparency to investors and enable period-to-period comparability of financial performance. The company’s chief operating decision maker uses these measures to assess the ongoing performance of the company and its segments, as well as for business and enterprise planning purposes.
A description of other non-GAAP financial measures that Albemarle uses to evaluate its operations and financial performance, and reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP can be found on the following pages of this press release, which is also is available on Albemarle’s website at https://investors.albemarle.com. The company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP, as the company is unable to estimate significant non-recurring or unusual items without unreasonable effort. The amounts and timing of these items are uncertain and could be material to the company's results calculated in accordance with GAAP.

As noted above, beginning in 2024, the company changed its definition of adjusted EBITDA for financial accounting purposes. The updated definition includes Albemarle’s share of the pre-tax earnings of the Talison joint venture, whereas the prior definition included Albemarle’s share of Talison earnings net of tax. See below for a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA (on a consolidated basis), the non-GAAP financial measure, to Net income attributable to Albemarle Corporation (“earnings”), the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP, as if it were presented under the new definition for the year ended December 31, 2023.
