CEO quote
Gustavo Calvo Paz, Ontex’s CEO, said “We
accelerated our 3-year transformation plan over the past year and I
am very pleased with the excellent momentum achieved and the
encouraging results delivered in 2023. The solid level of activity,
and continued delivery on the cost transformation program, all
contributed to positive EPS and free cashflow for the first time in
several years. This marks a major milestone for the Group, and is a
huge credit to the Ontex team to deliver on our commitments. The
solid improvement in our financial performance and cashflow
generation allowed us to ramp up our investments for future growth,
innovation and further efficiency gains. Our momentum puts us well
on track to restoring value creation for all our stakeholders, whom
I would like to thank for their support as we continue our
journey.”
FY results
- Revenue [1] totaled €1,795 million, a 10% like-for-like
improvement, driven by a 9% price increase. The strategic
rebalancing of the portfolio led to double digit growth in selected
categories, while overall volumes remained stable. Including a 2%
adverse forex effect, revenue was up 7% year on year.
- Adjusted EBITDA [1] increased to €174 million, up 67%,
thanks to volume mix improvement of €5 million and the cost
transformation program delivering €72 million, which reduced the
operating cost base by 5% for a second consecutive year. The €156
million pricing nearly offset additional input costs, SG&A
inflation and the €43 million adverse forex impact. The adjusted
EBITDA margin rose to 9.7%, up 3.5pp. After deduction of €(71)
million depreciation and €(15) million restructuring costs, the
operating profit recovered to €88 million, compared to a loss of
€(69) million a year ago.
- Total Group revenue was €2,342 million, up 10% like for
like, including €547 million from the discontinued Emerging
Markets. These were up 11% like for like, excluding adverse forex
and adjusting for the Mexican business activities divested in May.
Strong pricing more than offset a slight volume and mix reduction.
Total Group adjusted EBITDA was €223 million, up 65% year on year.
Emerging Markets contributed €49 million, with a positive impact
from volume mix, strong pricing and operating efficiency gains more
than offsetting input cost and SG&A inflation.
- Profit for the year was €35 million, €27 million from
continuing operations and €8 million from discontinued operations.
Basic earnings per share thereby turned positive at €0.43.
- Free cash flow after financing [2] turned positive at €9
million, compared to €(115) million in 2022, with EBITDA growth
allowing to finance further investments in the Group’s
transformation, with capex of €96 million, up 55%, and €36 million
working capital increase over the year.
- Net financial debt reduced by 23% over the year to €665
million, including the net proceeds received from the divestment of
the Mexican activities. The adjusted EBITDA improvement drove the
leverage ratio down from 6.4 times at the start of the year to 3.3
times at the end.
Q4 results
- Revenue [1] was €446 million, stable like for
like. Prices came down slightly since the second quarter,
reflecting decreased raw material costs. Year on year, however,
prices were still up 3%. Although volumes, including mix effects,
were 3% down compared to a strong last quarter of 2022, growth in
selected categories continued. Overall revenue came in lower at 3%
on adverse forex.
- Adjusted EBITDA [1] was €47 million, up 16% year
on year and 7% quarter on quarter, driven by continued delivery on
the cost transformation program for €17 million. The €14 million
higher prices nearly compensated for adverse forex and cost
inflation. Raw materials price decreases had a positive impact of
€8 million, but were more than offset by the inflation of other
operating costs of €13 million and SG&A costs of €7 million.
Forex fluctuations had a €9 million adverse impact. The adjusted
EBITDA margin recovered to 10.4%, up 1.7pp year on year, and up
0.9pp quarter on quarter. After deduction of €(4) million
restructuring costs, and €(19) million depreciation, the operating
profit was €23 million.
- Total Group revenue was €545 million, stable like for
like versus 2022, and includes €99 million from the discontinued
Emerging Markets. These were up 2% like for like, as pricing more
than offset a slight volume and mix reduction. Total Group adjusted
EBITDA was €58 million, up 14% year on year, and stable quarter on
quarter. Emerging Markets contributed €12 million, up 8%, with a
positive impact from volume mix, pricing and operating efficiency.
Lower raw material costs more than offset further other operating
cost inflation.
Outlook
Based on solid delivery in 2023, as well as the
building blocks put in place to further support the Group’s
structural transformation, Ontex’s management is confident to
continue the Group’s profitability restoration in 2024 and
expects:
- Revenue [1] to grow by low single-digit like
for like, supported by strong double-digit growth in North
America, while managing prices in function of input costs and
market dynamics;
- Adjusted EBITDA margin [1] to improve to within a
range of 11% to 12%, based on continued delivery of the cost
transformation program;
- Further progress on divesting the remaining discontinued
operations of Emerging Markets activities, which meanwhile
are to contribute positively to adjusted EBITDA and free cash
flow;
- Free cash flow after financing [2] to improve further
above €9 million in 2023, while self-funding the accelerated Group
transformation through investments, which are anticipated to be in
excess of 6% of revenue in Core Markets;
- Leverage ratio to reduce further by year end to below
3.0 times the adjusted EBITDA of the last twelve months.
[1] Reported P&L figures, except for profit, represent
continuing operations, i.e. Core Markets, only. As from 2022,
Emerging Markets, are reported as discontinued operations,
following the strategic decision to divest these businesses.

Full year 2023 business review of continuing
operations
Revenue of Core Markets
Revenue was €1,795 million, a 10%
like-for-like improvement, driven by price increases across all
categories. In a generally lower market, volumes were stable and
grew in selected categories, such as pants. In adult care revenue
growth was 16% like for like, with strong growth in the healthcare
channel. Baby care revenue grew 5% like for like and feminine care
9%, both on pricing. Including the adverse forex effect, revenue
was up 7%.
Volume and mix was overall
stable. In Europe, lower overall demand for baby care was offset by
retail brand share gains, owing to consumers shifting to better
value-for-money alternatives. In feminine care market share gains
by retailer brands led to growth, whereas the overall demand was
slightly down. Demand for adult care products continued to grow,
both for branded products and for retail brands. Ontex European
sales volumes were overall in line with the retail brand trends,
but outperformed in baby pants, and realized strong growth in the
healthcare channel. In North America demand for retail brands
decreased more than the overall market. Ontex sales volumes in
North America were in line with the market, as new contract gains
in the second half offset softer sales in the first half, which was
subject to some customer destocking.
Prices were up 9% on average, a
strong increase visible across categories and especially in the
healthcare channel, where the ramp-up in 2022 was slower. The
majority of the year-on-year price increase in 2023 is the effect
of the price roll-out in 2022 to mitigate the impact of the huge
increase in raw material and other input costs. In the first half
of 2023, prices still rose sequentially, but they started to
decrease slightly in the second half, reflecting decreasing raw
material prices. Combined over the last two years this represents
an overall increase of 18%.
Forex fluctuations had a
negative impact of 2%, linked to the devaluation of the Russian
ruble, the US and the Australian dollar, as well as the British
pound.
Adjusted EBITDA of Core Markets
Adjusted EBITDA increased to €174
million, up 67%, driven by volume mix improvement and consistent
solid delivery of the cost transformation program. Overall, pricing
nearly offset the additional input and SG&A cost inflation, and
the adverse forex impact. The adjusted EBITDA margin rose to 9.7%,
up 3.5pp.
While volume and mix had no significant
net impact on revenue, the growth in selected categories led to an
improvement of the product mix, resulting in a €5 million positive
impact.
The cost transformation program delivered
€72 million in gross savings, 30% more, maintaining a yearly
reduction rate of the operational cost base by some 5%, excluding
volume and cost price effects, for the second consecutive year.
Cost inflation weighed heavily on the
year-on-year comparison, with a negative impact of €67 million from
raw materials, mostly higher fluff prices and to a lesser extent
super-absorbent polymers. These fluff prices increased
significantly at the start of the year and only gradually came down
in the second half. Other operating costs were €44 million higher,
reflecting wage inflation as well as increased distribution, energy
and maintenance costs. Although the year-on-year increase slowed
down in the second half of the year, the operating cost base went
up by close to 8% versus 2022. SG&A costs were kept below 10%
of revenue, despite wage inflation.
Strong pricing contributed €156 million
year on year. Over the last two years pricing contributed €270
million. While this increase is substantial, it was not sufficient
to compensate the cumulative cost inflation incurred since the
start of the inflation wave in 2021.
Forex fluctuations had a €43 million net
negative impact. The currency depreciation impact on revenue was
exacerbated by a negative impact on costs, with a.o. the
appreciation of the Mexican peso affecting production costs in
North America. Although the US dollar depreciated versus last year,
which benefits the net cost exposure, the hedging over a longer
period of time led to a net negative impact.
Q4 2023 business review of continuing operations
Revenue of Core Markets
Revenue was €446 million, stable like for
like. While the year-on-year price increase reduced, in line with
lower input costs, it retained a positive impact, offsetting
slightly lower volumes. Baby care revenue was down 9% and feminine
care down 3% like for like, compared to a high comparable in 2022.
Adult care sales continued to grow strongly by 13% like for like,
both on volume and on price. Overall revenue came in lower at 3%
due to adverse forex.
Volume and mix impacted revenue
negatively by 3%, compared to a strong last quarter of 2022 when
promotional activities in Europe boosted baby care sales in
December, and phasing by certain customers in North America drove
orders for baby and feminine care up temporarily. This reduction
was partly offset by continued growth in selected product
categories and in adult healthcare channels.
Prices were up 3% on average versus last
year. While prices have been coming down slightly since the second
quarter, managed in function of sequentially decreasing raw
material costs, year on year they retained a positive impact.
Forex fluctuations continued to have a
negative impact, albeit less pronounced than in the third quarter,
mainly from the year-on-year weakening of the Russian ruble, the US
and the Australian dollar .
Adjusted EBITDA of Core Markets
Adjusted EBITDA of Core Markets was €47
million, up 16% year on year and 7% quarter on quarter, marking six
consecutive quarters of sequential growth. Continued delivery on
the cost transformation program more than compensated for the
slower volumes. Higher prices nearly offset cost inflation, which
still has a negative impact overall year on year. The adjusted
EBITDA margin thereby recovered to 10.4%, up 1.7pp year on year,
and up 0.9pp quarter on quarter. Forex fluctuations had a negative
impact.
Lower volumes were partly
offset by the mix improvement, leading to an overall €2 million
reduction.
The cost transformation program
contributed €17 million in gross savings, mostly in procurement,
thanks to the qualification of alternative sources.
Cost inflation continued to have a
negative impact overall. While the sequential raw material price
decrease resulted in a positive year-on-year impact for the first
time since 2021, with fluff prices still up, but more than offset
by a price reduction for other raw materials. Distribution and
maintenance costs as well as wages were still up year on year,
however. The total operating cost base went up by 2% versus the
fourth quarter of 2022. SG&A costs were up significantly as
result of wage inflation, some exceptional elements and cost
phasing affecting the last quarter of the year.
Forex fluctuations had a €9 million
negative net impact, with the weakening effect of foreign
currencies on revenue was exacerbated by transactional impacts.
Full year 2023 operational review
Operations
The cost transformation program delivered €91
million gross savings, of which €72 million in Core Markets
represent a 30% increase versus 2022. These initiatives allowed to
reduce raw materials and operating costs, prior to volume and
inflation effects, by 5.1%, in line with 4.9% in 2022. Besides the
optimization of the manufacturing footprint, continuous focus on
operational efficiencies led to a further reduction of the scrap
rate and Overall Equipment Efficiency (OEE) improvement. Service
levels also improved from the 2022 level.
Ontex continues to invest in its operations,
with €96 million for the Total Group for 2023, or 4.1% of revenue,
ramping up to 4.7% in the second half, and more than 5% for Core
Markets only. This is significantly above 2.5% in 2022 and
Ontex’s depreciation [1] to revenue ratio of some 3%.
The vast majority is invested in Core Markets, with about 70%
in operational efficiency improvement projects and in business
expansion. These investments included new production lines for
pants and adult care, adding capacity in North America and
improving the offer in Europe.
Innovation
Innovation represented some €19 million in
operational and capital expenditure in 2023, mostly in Core
Markets, with several new products developed or launched in the
year. All Ontex’s innovation is thoroughly tested with consumers,
to guarantee that new solutions offered to customers are comparable
to leading brand standards.
Building on the successful introduction of the
HappyFit™ baby pant platform, the Splashy® swim pants were rolled
out in baby care, and the DreamShield® back pocket for triple
leakage protection was developed. In Feminine care the newest
development is focused on liners, with the breathable, thin and
flexible ConfiDaily™. In tampons the SatinSense® cover for smoother
insertion and removal was launched. In the growing adult care
category, the new adult pants’ X-Core™ technology was rolled out in
light incontinence which combines higher performance and comfort
with affordability.
Sustainability [2]
Ontex further reduced its Scope 1 and Scope 2
emissions, by some 6% versus 2022. The 54% reduction compared to
the base year 2020 brings it closer to its Science-Based Target of
80% by 2030. Ontex commits to achieving carbon-neutrality 2030,
through energy savings, on-site renewable energy production,
purchasing energy from renewable sources and carbon offsets for the
remaining 20%. Ontex also aims to cut the emissions of its global
supply chain and introduced a Science-Based Target for Scope 3
emissions. About 5% reduction was achieved year on year by working
together with suppliers to create transparency on the carbon
intensity of raw materials. This brings Ontex back on track to
reduce emissions by 25% by 2030 versus 2020. Ontex's efforts have
been externally recognized, including recently with an A- score for
leadership in corporate transparency and performance on climate
change. Ontex received the score in early 2024 from the global
environmental non-profit organization Carbon Disclosure Project
(CDP).
Ontex takes the safety of its employees at
heart. In 2023 the frequency rate was 3.52 lost work day cases per
million worked hours, which is a 7% improvement versus 2022, and
35% compared to the base year 2020, by focusing on machine risk
reduction, behaviours and leadership awareness. Ontex strives to
reduce the number of accidents further down year after year to
eventually reach its ultimate ambition to a zero harm
workplace.
[1] Depreciation adjusted for depreciation of right-of-use
assets, as lease payments are not included in capex either.
[2] Preliminary unaudited figures for 2023
Full year 2023 financial review
P&L
Depreciation was stable at €(71) million,
reflecting continued investments offset by positive forex
effects.
EBITDA adjustments were made for €(15)
million. These adjust primarily for restructuring costs and a €(5)
million impairment related to the further optimization of the
European operations and business. This compares to EBITDA
adjustments made for €(103) million in 2022, when significant
impairments were taken on the Russian assets.
The net finance cost was €(45) million,
€6 million better than in 2022. The surge in interest rates only
had a smaller impact, as the majority of Ontex’s debt consists of
the fixed rate bond, and the overall indebtedness was reduced in
the second quarter. Currency effects had a positive impact.
The income tax was €(16) million,
compared to €(28) million a year ago. While the deducted effective
tax rate of 38% remains relatively high, it is impacted by the
geographical mix of earnings and conservative treatment for the
recognition of deferred tax assets in respect of certain
losses.
Discontinued operations contributed the
€8 million in profit for the year, compared to a €(122) million
loss a year ago, when significant impairments were taken. The
adjusted EBITDA from these activities was €49 million. The Mexican
business activities contributed for 4 months before being divested
in May. The remaining activities in Brazil and the Middle East
improved significantly through the year and versus 2022. A better
volume mix, strong pricing and operating efficiency gains more than
offset input cost and SG&A inflation. EBITDA adjustments were
made for €(27) million, mainly for an impairment of €(13) million
on the Middle Eastern assets and €(11) million costs related to the
divestment of the Mexican assets. Taxes were lower, at €(6)
million, as the scope reduced. Financial charges were €(9) million,
reflecting hyperinflation in Turkey, which impacted the total
profit contribution by €(8) million.
The profit for the year of the Total
Group was €35 million, compared to the €(270) million loss a year
before, when the profitability was lower and significant
impairments were taken in continuing and discontinued operations.
Basic earnings per share of the Total Group were €0.43, compared to
€(3.34) in 2022.
Cash flow
Capital expenditure was €(96) million,
representing 4.1% of the Total Group revenue, compared to 2.5% in
2022, with an acceleration in the second half of the year reaching
4.7%, accelerating investments in the North American business
expansion and the further implementation of the cost transformation
program.
Free cash flow after financing was €9
million, compared to €(115) million in 2022. Cash generation from
the strongly improved adjusted EBITDA allowed to fund the increased
capital expenditure, €(25) million lease payments, €(36) million
working capital needs and €(18) million cash-out for restructuring
and divestment-related cash costs. The sale of some obsolete assets
contributed €16 million. Cash taxes were €(21) million and the
financing cash-out totaled €(46) million, consisting mainly of the
net interest payments. Realized forex gains on financing activities
offset hedging costs as well as transaction costs related to the
renegotiated revolving credit facility.
Balance sheet
Working capital for the Total Group at
the end of the year was €164 million, a €13 million decrease versus
the end of 2022, largely linked to the exit of the Mexican
activities. Working capital needs in the remaining operations
increased. Receivables increased as a result of higher sales prices
and lower factoring activity. Factoring amounted to €164 million,
€28 million lower than at the year start, partly linked to the
divestment of the Mexican activities. Payables decreased with lower
raw material prices, as did inventories, but the latter was not
enough to compensate the working capital increase, partly as the
on-going effort to harmonize the supply chain temporarily limits
the implementation of working capital efficiencies.
Net financial debt of the Total Group was
€665 million at the end of the period, including lease liabilities
of €133 million. The decrease from €867 million at the start of the
year is entirely attributable to the divestment of the Mexican
business activities early May. Net proceeds of €200 million were
received from the acquirer, net of all transaction costs and
post-closing adjustments, as well as net of cash remaining in the
business. Deferred proceeds of €29 million, booked as non-current
receivables, are still due within the next five years.
The leverage ratio of the Total Group at
the end of the period was 3.3 times the adjusted EBITDA of the last
twelve months, which now excludes the Mexican business
contribution. The improvement compared to 6.4 times at the year
start, is based on the significant increase of the adjusted EBITDA,
and leaves sufficient headroom versus the maintenance covenants
applicable to the revolving credit facility.
The gross financial debt of the Total
Group reduced from €1,076 million to €834 million, following the
repayment of the €220 million term loan in the second quarter. The
gross debt excludes €168 million of cash and cash equivalents, and
consists of the €580 million bond at fixed 3.5% rate maturing in
July 2026, of €133 million of lease liabilities, and of €115
million drawn on the revolving credit facility. More information on
that facility, which was extended to December 2025, can be found in
the financial notes.
As from 2022, the Emerging Markets activities
are reported as assets held for sale. The net value of these
