INGREDION INCORPORATED REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2015 RESULTS

·                  First quarter 2015 reported and adjusted EPS were $1.15 and $1.30, respectively, up from $0.96 reported in the first quarter 2014

·                  2015 adjusted EPS guidance of $5.50-$6.00, including the Penford transaction EPS accretion and excluding associated acquisition and integration costs

·                  Company continues to forecast $650-$700 million of cash generated by operations

WESTCHESTER, Ill., April 30, 2015 - Ingredion Incorporated (NYSE: INGR), a leading global provider of ingredient solutions to diversified industries, today reported results for the first quarter 2015.

“We are pleased with the first quarter results which were highlighted by higher volumes and operating income, and earnings per share growth,” said Ilene Gordon, chairman, president and chief executive officer.  “As expected, operating income in North America was up significantly as last year’s results reflected adverse weather effects, and in the first quarter of 2015 we had strong volumes in core and specialty ingredients and good cost control.  Asia Pacific and EMEA achieved solid operating income for the quarter, in line with our expectations despite foreign exchange headwinds.  These positives were slightly offset by softer demand and foreign exchange headwinds in South America, most predominantly in Brazil.

“We continue to have confidence in our business model. North America is expected to continue to drive bottom-line growth with stronger volumes and improved product mix.  Asia Pacific and EMEA are anticipated to improve modestly and be in line with last year, respectively, despite continuing foreign exchange headwinds. South America is expected to be generally in line with last year with strong Andean performance expected to offset weakness in Southern Cone and Brazil.

“Despite economic challenges and slowing economies, our underlying business is doing well.  Our geographic footprint, broad product portfolio, and focus on higher-value specialty products are expected to drive growth and shareholder value.

“Additionally, we are pleased that the Penford Corporation acquisition closed in March.  The acquisition is still expected to be $0.08-$0.12 per share accretive in 2015 and will enhance our high-value specialty ingredient portfolio. As such, our expectation for adjusted EPS for the year, including accretion resulting from the transaction, is $5.50-$6.00, excluding the associated acquisition and integration costs,” Gordon added.

Earnings Per Share (EPS)

Estimated factors affecting change in adjusted EPS

Financial Highlights

·                  At March 31, 2015, total debt and cash and short-term investments were $2.2 billion and $609 million, respectively, versus $1.8 billion and $614 million, respectively, at December 31, 2014.

·                  During the first quarter of 2015, net financing costs were approximately $14 million, or $2.6 million lower than the year-ago period.

·                  The first quarter reported and adjusted effective tax rates were 31.7 percent and 32.1 percent, respectively, compared to a 28.8 percent reported tax rate in the year-ago period.

·                  Capital expenditures, net of disposals, were $58 million in the first quarter 2015 and $59 million in the year-ago period.

Business Review

Total Ingredion

Net Sales

·                  Net sales were down in the first quarter as a result of currency devaluations and the pass through of lower net corn costs, partially offset by volume growth, both organic and acquisition related.

Operating income

·                  First quarter reported operating income and adjusted operating income were $139 million and $157 million, respectively.  This was a 14 percent and 28 percent increase, respectively, compared to $122 million of reported operating income in the first quarter of 2014.  The increase in adjusted operating income was primarily due to stronger volumes and margins in North America. This was slightly offset by global foreign exchange headwinds and stagnant economies in South America, primarily Brazil.

North America

Operating income

·                  First quarter operating income increased from $65 million to $102 million. Approximately $20 million of the increase is attributable to the lapping of the adverse weather effects in the first quarter of last year. Higher volumes, lower net corn costs, and lower manufacturing expenses accounted for the remainder of the increase. The impact of Penford’s earnings was immaterial given its mid-March close.

3

South America

Operating income

·                  Operating income in the quarter was $25 million, down 18 percent, or $5 million, largely as a result of weaker demand in Brazil. Increased pricing mitigated the impact of foreign exchange throughout the region and higher input costs from inflationary effects in Argentina.

Asia Pacific

Operating income

·                  First quarter operating income was $26 million, flat from a year ago. Weaker foreign exchange rates were offset by higher volumes.

Europe, Middle East, Africa (EMEA)

Operating income

·                  First quarter operating income increased five percent to $22 million, up from $21 million a year ago.  Weaker foreign exchange rates were offset by good cost management.

2015 Guidance

2015 adjusted EPS, including the anticipated $0.08-$0.12 per share accretion resulting from the Penford acquisition but excluding integration and acquisition costs, is expected to be in the range of $5.50 to $6.00 compared to adjusted EPS of $5.20 in 2014.  The guidance assumes: overall improvement in North America, modest improvement in Asia Pacific, EMEA in line with last year, and South America in line to slightly up versus last year; an effective tax rate of 29 - 31 percent; and earnings per share accretion attributable to the 2014 accelerated share repurchase program.  Sales of specialty ingredients are expected to continue to grow faster than our core portfolio of products.

In 2015, cash generated by operations and capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $650-$700 million and $300 million, respectively.

To supplement the consolidated financial results prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), the Company uses non-GAAP historical financial measures, which exclude certain GAAP items such as costs related to the Penford acquisition, impairment and restructuring costs, and certain other unusual items. The Company uses the term “adjusted” when referring to these non-GAAP amounts.

Management uses non-GAAP financial measures internally for strategic decision making, forecasting future results and evaluating current performance.  By disclosing non-GAAP financial measures, management intends to provide investors with a more meaningful, consistent comparison of the Company’s operating results and trends for the periods presented.  These non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP and reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. These non-GAAP measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP; therefore, the information is not necessarily comparable to other companies.  A reconciliation of each non-GAAP historical financial measure to the most comparable GAAP measure is provided in the tables below.
