“We successfully completed our first year as a public company with Constant Currency Sales excluding Venezuela up 2.3%, principally driven by the performance of our construction segments in North America. We also expanded the company’s Adjusted EBIT Margin excluding Venezuela to 15.7% and exceeded our Adjusted Free Cash Flow commitment, generating $114 million in 2016,” said President and Chief Executive Officer Gregory E. Poling. “In 2017, we will continue to position GCP for growth by focusing on our customers, refreshing our portfolio and introducing new, high-value products and services.”
Full Year 2016:
• | Net sales decreased 4.4% primarily due to a decline in sales in Venezuela and unfavorable currency translation; Net Sales, Constant Currency, excluding Venezuela were up 2.3% primarily due to higher sales volumes in our construction businesses in North America |
• | GCP's gross margin increased 260 basis points to 39.0% primarily due to lower raw material costs, productivity improvements and the devaluation impact of Venezuela included in cost of goods sold in 2015; GCP's Adjusted Gross Margin of 39.7% increased 180 basis points primarily due to lower raw material costs and productivity improvements |
• | Adjusted EBIT decreased 5.7% primarily due to a decrease in Venezuela’s Adjusted EBIT and an increase in pension costs, partially offset by higher gross profit due to increased sales volumes and lower raw material costs; Adjusted EBIT excluding Venezuela grew 6.9% and Adjusted EBIT Margin excluding Venezuela expanded 110 basis points primarily due to higher gross margin |

*Non-GAAP financial measures. See the tables herein for important information regarding these measures and a full reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measures.
Restructuring and Repositioning Expenses
Restructuring expenses were $1.9 million for 2016. Repositioning expenses associated with the separation from W.R. Grace & Co. were $15.3 million for 2016, consisting primarily of professional services, IT systems and employee-related transition costs.
Interest Expense
Prior to the February 3, 2016 separation, GCP raised $800 million of debt. This resulted in net interest expense of $64.6 million for 2016 compared with $2.5 million for the prior year. In the third quarter of 2016, GCP refinanced its term loan with a reduced interest rate and incurred $1.2 million of related third-party financing costs, which are included in interest expense.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2016 was 30.4% compared to the effective tax rate of 67.3% for the year ended December 31, 2015. The decrease in the Company's effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to the same period in 2015 was primarily due to a 2015 repatriation of foreign earnings and the nondeductible loss in Venezuela recorded in 2015. The early adoption of ASU 2016-09 in 2016 reduced the effective tax rate by 1.9 percentage points, or $2.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2016.
Full Year 2017 Outlook1
Today GCP is introducing guidance for 2017 which includes the results of the acquired Halex Corporation and our operations in Venezuela.

Analysis of Operations
The Company has set forth in the table below GCP's key operating statistics with percentage changes for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014. In the table, the Company presents financial information in accordance with U.S. GAAP, as well as certain non-GAAP financial measures, which it describes below in further detail. GCP believes that the non-GAAP financial information supplements its discussions about the performance of its businesses, improves period-to-period comparability and provides insight to the information that management uses to evaluate the performance of its businesses. Management uses non-GAAP measures in financial and operational decision-making processes, for internal reporting, and as part of its forecasting and budgeting processes, as these measures provide additional transparency to GCP's core operations.
In the table, the Company has provided reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered substitutes for financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and the financial results that the Company calculates and presents in the table in accordance with U.S. GAAP, as well as the corresponding reconciliations from those results, should be carefully evaluated.
Constant currency means current period revenue in local currency translated using prior period exchange rates. GCP uses constant currency in assessing trends in sales excluding the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
Net Sales excluding Venezuela; Net Sales, Constant Currency excluding Venezuela; Adjusted EBIT excluding Venezuela; Adjusted EBIT Margin excluding Venezuela; and Adjusted Gross Margin excluding Venezuela mean GCP’s combined results or respective segment results excluding the financial results of its Venezuela operations. These are non-GAAP measures and should be reviewed in conjunction with the related GAAP measures. GCP uses these non-GAAP measures to assess its operating results independent of the impacts of extreme hyperinflation and geopolitical factors. Management believes that providing these metrics may allow investors to better analyze and compare GCP’s results of operations with peer companies whose operations may not be impacted by the economic challenges facing Venezuela.
The Company defines Adjusted EBIT (a non-GAAP financial measure) to be net income attributable to GCP shareholders adjusted for interest income; interest expense and related financing costs; income taxes; currency and other financial losses in Venezuela; restructuring and repositioning expenses and asset impairments; pension costs other than service and interest costs, expected returns on plan assets, and amortization of prior service costs/credits; income and expense items related to certain product lines and investments; gains and losses on sales of businesses, product lines and certain other investments; third-party acquisition-related costs; the amortization of acquired inventory fair value adjustment; and certain other items that are not representative of underlying trends. Adjusted EBIT Margin means Adjusted EBIT divided by net sales. GCP uses Adjusted EBIT to assess and measure its operating performance and in determining performance-based compensation. GCP uses Adjusted EBIT as a performance measure because it provides improved period-to-period comparability for management's decision-making and compensation purposes and because it allows management to measure the ongoing earnings results of the Company's strategic and operating decisions.
The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP financial measure) to be Adjusted EBIT adjusted for depreciation and amortization. GCP uses Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure in making significant business decisions.
The Company defines Adjusted Earnings Per Share (a non-GAAP financial measure) to be earnings per share ("EPS") on a diluted basis adjusted for costs related to restructuring and repositioning expenses and asset impairments; pension costs other than service and interest costs, expected return on plan assets, and amortization of prior service costs/credits; gains and losses on sales of businesses, product lines and certain other investments; third-party acquisition-related costs; other financing costs associated with the modification or extinguishment of debt; certain other items that are not representative of underlying trends; and certain discrete tax items. GCP uses Adjusted EPS as a performance measure to review its diluted earnings per share results on a consistent basis.
The Company defines Adjusted Gross Profit (a non-GAAP financial measure) to be gross profit adjusted for pension-related costs and loss in Venezuela included in cost of goods sold. Adjusted Gross Margin means Adjusted Gross Profit divided by net sales. Management uses this performance measure to understand trends and changes and to make business decisions regarding core operations. We note that the devaluation loss in Venezuela results primarily from geopolitical factors.
The Company defines Adjusted Free Cash Flow (a non-GAAP financial measure) to be net cash provided by or used for operating activities minus capital expenditures plus cash paid for restructuring and repositioning; taxes paid for repositioning; capital expenditures related to repositioning; accelerated payments under defined benefit pension arrangements; and expenditures for legacy items. GCP uses Adjusted Free Cash Flow as a liquidity measure to evaluate its ability to generate cash to support its ongoing business operations, to invest in its businesses, to provide a return of capital to shareholders and to determine payments of performance-based compensation.
The Company defines Adjusted EBIT Return On Invested Capital (a non-GAAP financial measure) to be Adjusted EBIT (on a trailing four quarters basis) divided by the sum of net working capital, properties and equipment and certain other assets and liabilities. Management uses Adjusted EBIT Return On Invested Capital as a performance measure to review investments and to make capital allocation decisions.
Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT excluding Venezuela, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBIT Return on Invested Capital, Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted Gross Margin excluding Venezuela, Adjusted EBIT Margin, Adjusted EBIT Margin excluding Venezuela and Adjusted Free Cash Flow do not purport to represent income measures as defined under U.S. GAAP. These measures are provided to investors and others to improve the period-to-period comparability and peer-to-peer comparability of GCP's financial results and to ensure that investors understand the information GCP uses to evaluate the performance of its businesses.
Adjusted EBIT has material limitations as an operating performance measure because it excludes costs related to income and expenses from restructuring and repositioning activities, which historically has been a material component of our net income. Adjusted EBITDA also has material limitations as an operating performance measure because it excludes the impact of depreciation and amortization expense. GCP's business is substantially dependent on the successful deployment of capital, and depreciation and amortization expense is a necessary element of its costs. GCP compensates for the limitations of these measurements by using these indicators together with net income as measured under GAAP to present a complete analysis of its results of operations. Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBITDA should be evaluated together with net income measured under GAAP for a complete understanding of GCP's results of operations.
The Company does not provide GAAP earnings on a forward-looking basis because the Company is unable to estimate with reasonable certainty unusual or unanticipated charges, expenses or gains without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to the Company’s results computed in accordance with GAAP.

(A) | GCP's segment operating income includes only GCP's share of income of consolidated joint ventures. |
(B) | Management allocates all costs within corporate to each segment to the extent such costs are directly attributable to the segments. |
(C) | Certain pension costs include only ongoing costs recognized quarterly, which include service and interest costs, expected returns on plan assets and amortization of prior service costs/credits. SCC, SBM and Darex segment operating income and corporate costs do not include any amounts for pension expense. Other pension related costs including annual mark-to-market adjustments, actuarial gains and losses, gains or losses from curtailments and terminations and other related costs are excluded from Adjusted EBIT. These amounts are not used by management to evaluate the performance of the GCP businesses and significantly affect the peer-to-peer and period-to-period comparability of our financial results. Mark-to-market adjustments, actuarial gains and losses, and other related costs relate primarily to changes in financial market values and actuarial assumptions and are not directly related to the operation of the GCP businesses. |
