November 5, 2020

 

CONSHOHOCKEN, PA – Quaker Chemical Corporation (“the Company”, also known as Quaker Houghton; NYSE: KWR) today announced third quarter results and provided an update regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company. Third quarter of 2020 net sales were $367.2 million, an increase of 13% compared to the third quarter of 2019. The increase was driven by additional net sales due to the Company’s August 1, 2019 combination with Houghton International, Inc. (“Houghton”), which we refer to as “the Combination”, as well as its October 1, 2019 acquisition of the operating divisions of Norman Hay plc (“Norman Hay”). Current quarter net sales declined approximately 5% compared to prior year third quarter pro forma net sales of approximately $386 million, which are adjusted to include the results of Houghton for the full quarter as well as certain other pro forma adjustments, described below, including the elimination of results associated with divested product lines. This quarter-over-quarter decline in pro forma net sales was primarily due to lower volumes reflecting the impact from COVID-19 on global industrial production partially offset by additional net sales from Norman Hay.

 

The Company had net income in the third quarter of 2020 of $27.3 million or $1.53 per diluted share compared to prior year third quarter net loss of $13.1 million or $0.80 per diluted share which was impacted by initial inventory fair value adjustments, restructuring charges and costs related to closing the Combination. Excluding costs associated with the Combination and other non-core items in each period, the Company’s current quarter adjusted EBITDA of $63.9 million increased 24% compared to $51.4 million in the third quarter of 2019 primarily due to the Combination, and increased 5% compared to pro forma prior year third quarter adjusted EBITDA of approximately $61 million primarily due to the benefits of cost synergies realized from the Combination and the benefit of Norman Hay in the current quarter, again partially offset by the negative impacts of COVID-19. The Company’s third quarter of 2020 non-GAAP net income increased to $27.7 million compared to $25.3 million in the prior year while its non-GAAP earnings per diluted share were consistent at $1.56 in both periods, as higher net income was offset by the additional shares issued at the close of the Combination. The Company’s strong earnings drove net operating cash flow of approximately $67.3 million during the third quarter of 2020, increasing its year-to-date net operating cash flow to $112.0 million in the first nine months of 2020 compared to $35.5 million in the first nine months of 2019.

 

 

 

 

Michael F. Barry, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President, “We experienced a strong rebound in our business in the third quarter compared to the second quarter with sales growing by 28% and adjusted EBITDA nearly doubling. All four business segments had good sequential growth as our end markets improved from the very poor second quarter conditions, especially in the Americas and EMEA. Our adjusted EBITDA growth continued to benefit from our estimated cost synergies of $17 million in the quarter as well as estimated market share gains of 2% in the quarter. Our cash flow generation continues to be strong as we reduced our net debt by 7% or $58 million this quarter.”

 

Mr. Barry continued, “While we have seen a rebound in many of our end markets, we are still not back to where we would have expected our business to be when we started the year. Looking forward, we expect gradual sequential improvement in our markets as we progress through the next two years, although given the uncertainty in our operating environment, the improvement by quarter is hard to predict. For the fourth quarter we expect our adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of our third quarter result. For the full year, we now expect our adjusted EBITDA to exceed $215 million. Overall, our integration synergies, additional cost savings actions, improvement in product margins, and good cash flows are expected to continue to help us during this challenging time. As we look forward to 2021, we expect to achieve a 20+% increase in our adjusted EBITDA as we complete our integration cost synergies, continue to take share in the marketplace and benefit from a projected gradual rebound in demand.”

 

Third Quarter 2020 Consolidated Results

 

Net sales were $367.2 million in the third quarter of 2020 compared to $325.1 million in the third quarter of 2019. The net sales increase of 13% quarter-over-quarter includes additional net sales from acquisitions, primarily Houghton and Norman Hay, of $74.6 million. Excluding net sales related to acquisitions, current quarter net sales would have declined approximately 10%, primarily due to an 8% decrease in sales volumes driven by the negative impact of COVID-19 on global production levels in the current quarter, as well as a 1% negative impact from foreign currency translation and a 1% decrease from price and product mix.

 

Gross profit in the third quarter of 2020 increased $35.1 million compared to the third quarter of 2019 primarily due to additional gross profit from Houghton and Norman Hay, as well as higher gross margins quarter-over-quarter. The Company’s gross margin in the current quarter was 38.2% compared to 32.3% in the third quarter of 2019 which included a $10.2 million expense associated with selling acquired Houghton inventory at its fair value. Excluding this one-time increase to cost of goods sold (“COGS”), the Company estimates that its gross margin for the third quarter of 2019 would have been approximately 35.5%. The estimated increase in gross margin quarter-over-quarter was primarily due to lower COGS as a result of the Company’s progress on Combination-related logistics, procurement and manufacturing cost savings initiatives.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) in the third quarter of 2020 increased $16.2 million compared to the third quarter of 2019 due primarily to additional SG&A from Houghton and Norman Hay, partially offset by lower SG&A due to the impact of COVID-19 cost savings actions, including lower travel expenses, and the benefits of realized cost savings associated with the Combination.

 

During the third quarter of 2020, the Company incurred $6.9 million of Combination, integration and other acquisition-related expenses, primarily for professional fees related to Houghton integration activities. Comparatively, the Company incurred $14.7 million of similar expenses in the prior year third quarter, primarily due to various professional fees related to integration planning and regulatory approval as well as professional fees associated with closing the Combination on August 1, 2019.

 

The Company initiated a restructuring program during the third quarter of 2019 as part of its global plan to realize cost synergies associated with the Combination and recorded an initial $24.0 million restructuring charge. The Company expects reductions in headcount and site closures under this program to continue during 2020 and into 2021 and recorded additional restructuring and related charges of $1.4 million during the current quarter.

 

Operating income in the third quarter of 2020 was $34.9 million compared to an operating loss of $14.5 million in the third quarter of 2019. Excluding Combination, integration and other acquisition-related expenses, restructuring and related charges, and other expenses that are not indicative of the Company’s future operating performance, the Company’s current quarter non-GAAP operating income increased 25% to $43.2 million compared to $34.5 million in the prior year quarter, primarily due to additional operating income from Houghton and Norman Hay and the benefits from cost savings related to the Combination, partially offset by the negative impact of COVID-19. The Company now expects to realize cost synergies of approximately $58 million in 2020 (up from $53 million), approximately $75 million in 2021 (up from $65 million) and $80 million in 2022 (up from $75 million). The Company estimates that it has realized approximately $17 million of cost savings related to the Combination during the third quarter of 2020, increasing its synergies realized in 2020 to approximately $40 million.

 

 

 

 

Other expense, net, was $0.2 million in the third quarter of 2020 compared to other income, net, of $0.2 million in the prior year third quarter. The quarter-over-quarter change to other expense, net, was driven by higher foreign currency transaction losses in the third quarter of 2020 as compared to the prior year third quarter, partially offset by lower expenses from the non-service components of pension and postretirement benefit costs in the current quarter.

 

Interest expense, net, increased $0.7 million compared to the prior year third quarter primarily due to an additional month of borrowings in the current quarter under the Company’s term loans and revolving credit facility to finance the closing of the Combination on August 1, 2019, as well as higher current quarter borrowings outstanding as a result of the additional revolver borrowings in March 2020 at the onset of the pandemic, partially offset by a decline in overall interest rates during the current quarter.

 

The Company’s effective tax rates for the third quarters of 2020 and 2019 were an expense of 8.1% compared to a benefit of 27.6%, respectively. The Company’s current quarter effective tax rate was impacted by certain one-time items, including benefits related to the impact of recently issued U.S. tax regulations and other changes in foreign tax credit valuation allowances, a change in a foreign subsidiary’s statutory rate and impacts related to the Combination. Similarly, the prior year third quarter’s tax rate was impacted by the pre-tax losses driven by the Combination costs, restructuring charges and inventory fair value expense previously mentioned. Excluding the impact of these costs and all other non-core items in each quarter, described in the Non-GAAP and Pro Forma measures section below, the Company estimates that its effective tax rates for the third quarters of 2020 and 2019 would have been approximately 24% and 20%, respectively. The higher estimated current quarter tax rate was driven by a change in the current quarter earnings footprint to entities with higher statutory tax rates as well as a cumulative year-to-date tax benefit recorded during the third quarter of 2019 as a result of one of its subsidiaries receiving approval for the renewal of a concessionary 15% tax rate compared to its 25% statutory tax rate. The concessionary tax rate was available to the Company’s subsidiary during all quarters of 2020.

 

Equity in net income of associated companies was consistent at $1.8 million in both the third quarters of 2020 and 2019.

 

Foreign exchange negatively impacted the Company’s current quarter results by approximately $0.18 per diluted share, primarily due to higher foreign exchange transaction losses quarter-over-quarter and, to a lesser extent, an aggregate negative impact from foreign currency translation on earnings.

 

First Nine Months 2020 Consolidated Results

 

Net sales were $1,031.8 million in the first nine months of 2020 compared to $742.2 million in the first nine months of 2019. The net sales increase of 39% year-over-year includes additional net sales from acquisitions, primarily Houghton and Norman Hay, of $407.4 million. Excluding net sales from acquisitions, current year net sales would have declined approximately 16% due to a 13% decrease in sales volumes associated with the negative impacts of COVID-19 on global production levels, as well as a 2% negative impact from foreign currency translation and a 1% decrease from price and product mix.

 

Gross profit in the first nine months of 2020 increased $115.4 million compared to the first nine months of 2019 primarily due to additional gross profit from Houghton and Norman Hay. The Company’s gross margin in the current period was 36.0% compared to 34.5% in 2019, which includes a $10.2 million expense associated with selling Houghton’s inventory at fair value. Excluding this one-time increase to COGS, the Company estimates that its gross margin for the first nine months of 2019 would have been 35.9%, relatively consistent with the current year.

 

 

 

 

SG&A in the first nine months of 2020 increased $100.1 million compared to the first nine months of 2019 due primarily to additional SG&A from Houghton and Norman Hay, partially offset by the same drivers described in the third quarter description noted above.

 

During the first nine months of 2020, the Company incurred $22.8 million of Combination, integration and other acquisition-related expenses, primarily for professional fees related to Houghton integration activities. Comparatively, the Company incurred $23.8 million of similar expenses in the prior year, primarily due to various professional fees related to integration planning and regulatory approval as well as professional fees associated with closing the Combination.

 

As noted above, the Company initiated a restructuring program during the third quarter of 2019 as part of its global plan to realize cost synergies associated with the Combination. During the first nine months of 2020, the Company recorded additional restructuring and related charges of $3.6 million. Comparatively, the Company incurred restructuring and related charges of $24.0 million during the first nine months of 2019.

 

During the first quarter of 2020, the Company recorded a $38.0 million non-cash impairment charge to write down the value of certain indefinite-lived intangible assets associated with the Combination. This non-cash impairment charge is related to certain acquired Houghton trademarks and tradenames and is primarily the result of the current year negative impacts of COVID-19 on their estimated fair values. There were no other impairment charges in 2020 or in the prior year.

 

Operating income in the first nine months of 2020 was $24.7 million compared to $25.9 million in the first nine months of 2019. Excluding Combination, integration and other acquisition-related expenses, restructuring and related charges, the non-cash indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment charge, and other expenses that are not indicative of the Company’s future operating performance, the Company’s non-GAAP operating income increased to $90.4 million for the first nine months of 2020 compared to $84.3 million in the prior year period, primarily due to additional operating income from Houghton and Norman Hay and the benefits from cost savings related to the Combination, partially offset by the negative impact of COVID-19.

 

Other expense, net, was $22.4 million in the first nine months of 2020 compared to $0.4 million in the prior year period. The year-over-year increase in other expense, net was primarily due to a first quarter of 2020 non-cash settlement charge of $22.7 million associated with the termination of the legacy Quaker U.S. Pension Plan, as well as higher foreign currency transaction losses in the current year.

 

Interest expense, net, increased $14.5 million in the first nine months of 2020 compared to the prior year primarily due to additional borrowings under the Company’s term loans and revolving credit facility to finance the closing of the Combination.

 

The Company’s effective tax rates for the first nine months of 2020 and 2019 were a benefit of 38.3% and an expense of 22.9%, respectively. The Company’s current year effective tax rate was impacted by the pre-tax loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the tax effect of certain one-time pre-tax costs as well as certain one-time tax charges and benefits in the current period, including those mentioned in the three months analysis above as well as those related to the impact of recently issued U.S. tax regulations and other changes in the valuation allowance for foreign tax credits acquired with the Combination, additional charges for uncertain tax positions relating to certain foreign tax audits, and the tax impact of the Company’s termination of its legacy Quaker U.S. pension plan. Comparatively, the prior year effective tax rate was primarily impacted by certain non-deductible costs associated with the Combination. Excluding the impact of all non-core items in each quarter, described in the Non-GAAP and Pro Forma measures section below, the Company estimates that its effective tax rates were relatively consistent for the first nine months of 2020 and 2019 at approximately 23% and 22%, respectively.

 

Equity in net income of associated companies increased $0.7 million in the first nine months of 2020 compared to the first nine months of 2019, primarily due to additional earnings from Houghton’s 50% interest in a joint venture in Korea, partially offset by lower earnings as compared to the prior year period from the Company’s interest in a captive insurance company.

 

 

 

 

Foreign exchange negatively impacted the Company’s first nine months of 2020 results by approximately $0.27 per diluted share, primarily due to higher foreign exchange transaction losses year-over-year and, to a lesser extent, an aggregate negative impact from foreign currency translation on earnings.

 

Cash Flow and Liquidity Highlights

 

The Company had net operating cash flow of approximately $67.3 million during the third quarter of 2020, increasing its year-to-date net operating cash flow to $112.0 million in the first nine months of 2020 compared to $35.5 million in the first nine months of 2019. The $76.5 million increase in net operating cash flow year-over-year was primarily driven by additional earnings from Houghton and Norman Hay, releases in working capital as sales volumes declined due to COVID-19, and lower cash outflows associated with the Combination.

 

The Company has no material debt maturities until August 1, 2024. As of September 30, 2020, the Company’s total gross debt was $896.6 million and its cash on hand was $155.8 million. The Company’s net debt was $740.8 million, and its net debt divided by its trailing twelve months adjusted EBITDA was approximately 3.4 to 1 as of September 30, 2020. The Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio, as defined under its bank agreement, was approximately 2.9 to 1 as of September 30, 2020 compared to a maximum permitted leverage of 4.25 to 1. Based on current projections, including multiple forecasted scenarios of future liquidity and leverage, the Company does not expect any compliance issues with its bank covenants.

 

Non-GAAP and Pro Forma Measures

 

The information included in this press release includes non-GAAP (unaudited) financial information that includes EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP earnings per diluted share, and pro forma net sales, net income (loss) attributable to Quaker Houghton, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information as they enhance a reader’s understanding of the financial performance of the Company, are indicative of future operating performance of the Company, and facilitate a comparison among fiscal periods, as the non-GAAP financial measures exclude items that are not indicative of future operating performance or not considered core to the Company’s operations. Non-GAAP results and pro forma information are presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered a substitute for the financial information presented in accordance with GAAP.

 

The Company presents EBITDA which is calculated as net income (loss) attributable to the Company before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net, and taxes on (loss) income before equity in net income of associated companies. The Company also presents adjusted EBITDA which is calculated as EBITDA plus or minus certain items that are not indicative of future operating performance or not considered core to the Company’s operations. In addition, the Company presents non-GAAP operating income which is calculated as operating income (loss) plus or minus certain items that are not indicative of future operating performance or not considered core to the Company’s operations. Adjusted EBITDA margin and non-GAAP operating margin are calculated as the percentage of adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP operating income to consolidated net sales, respectively. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures provide transparent and useful information and are widely used by analysts, investors, and competitors in our industry as well as by management in assessing the operating performance of the Company on a consistent basis.

 

Additionally, the Company presents non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share as additional performance measures. Non-GAAP net income is calculated as adjusted EBITDA, defined above, less depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net, and taxes on income (loss) before equity in net income of associated companies, in each case adjusted, as applicable, for any depreciation, amortization, interest or tax impacts resulting from the non-core items identified in the reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to the Company to adjusted EBITDA. Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share is calculated as non-GAAP net income per diluted share as accounted for under the “two-class share method.” The Company believes that non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share provide transparent and useful information and are widely used by analysts, investors, and competitors in our industry as well as by management in assessing the operating performance of the Company on a consistent basis.

 

 

 

 

As it relates to the fourth quarter and full year 2020 expected adjusted EBITDA, 2021 projected adjusted EBITDA growth and other forward-looking information described further above, the Company has not provided guidance for comparable GAAP measures or a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure because it is unable to determine with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items necessary to calculate such measures without unreasonable effort. These items include, but are not limited to, certain non-recurring or non-core items the Company may record that could materially impact net income, as well as the impact of COVID-19. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on the U.S. GAAP reported results for the guidance period.

 

The Company’s reference to trailing twelve months adjusted EBITDA within this press release refers to the twelve month period ended September 30, 2020 adjusted EBITDA of $217.1 million, which includes the nine months ended September 30, 2020 adjusted EBITDA of $156.5 million, as presented in the non-GAAP reconciliations below, as well as the three months ended December 31, 2019 adjusted EBITDA of $60.6 million, as presented in the non-GAAP reconciliations included in the Company’s fourth quarter and full year 2019 results press release dated March 2, 2020.

 

The following tables reconcile the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures (unaudited) to their most directly comparable GAAP (unaudited) financial measures (dollars in thousands unless otherwise noted, except per share amounts):

(a)The Company recorded $0.8 million of accelerated depreciation expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, related to the Combination, of which $0.7 million was recorded in COGS and $0.1 million was recorded in Combination, integration and other acquisition-related expenses. This amount is recorded within COGS is included in the caption Houghton combination, integration and other acquisition-related expenses in the reconciliation of Operating income (loss) to Non-GAAP operating income and GAAP earnings (loss) per diluted share attributable to Quaker Chemical Corporation common shareholders to Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share. In addition, this amount is recorded within the caption Depreciation and amortization in the reconciliation of Net income (loss) attributable to Quaker Chemical Corporation to Adjusted EBITDA; however, it is excluded in the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Non-GAAP net income. There was no similar accelerated depreciation expense in the three months ended September 30, 2020 or the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

 

(b)Depreciation and amortization for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 includes approximately $0.2 million and $0.9 million, respectively, of amortization expense recorded within equity in net income of associated companies in the Statements of Operations, attributable to the amortization of the fair value step up for Houghton’s 50% interest in a joint venture in Korea as a result of required purchase accounting. Comparatively, the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 includes $0.1 million of similar amortization expense recorded within equity in net income of associated companies.

 

(c)Interest expense, net – adjusted excludes $0.4 million and $2.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, of interest costs the Company incurred to maintain the bank commitment to finance the Combination, prior to executing the Company’s credit facility and closing the Combination on August 1, 2019.

 

(d)Taxes on income (loss) before equity in net income of associated companies – adjusted includes the Company’s tax expense adjusted for the impact of any current and deferred income tax expense (benefit), as applicable, of the reconciling items presented in the reconciliation of Net income (loss) attributable to Quaker Chemical Corporation to adjusted EBITDA, above, determined utilizing the applicable rates in the taxing jurisdictions in which these adjustments occurred, subject to deductibility. In addition, this caption also includes the impact of certain specific tax charges and benefits which the Company does not consider core or indicative of future performance, including tax benefits of $4.5 million and $0.4 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and incremental tax expense of $0.4 million during both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

 

(e)The Company’s calculation of GAAP and non-GAAP earnings (loss) per diluted share attributable to Quaker Chemical Corporation common shareholders for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was impacted by the 4.3 million share issuance in connection with closing the Combination. As a result, the per diluted share result for each of the first three quarters of 2019, as reported on a standalone basis, may not add up to the per diluted share result for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This press release contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  These statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts.  We have based these forward-looking statements, including statements regarding the potential effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business, results of operations, or financial condition and expectations regarding our liquidity position and our continued compliance with the terms of the Company’s credit facility on our current expectations about future events. These forward-looking statements include statements with respect to our beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, intentions, financial condition, results of operations, future performance, and business, including but not limited to the potential benefits of the Combination, the impacts on our business as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and any projected global economic rebound or anticipated positive results due to Company actions taken in response to the pandemic, and our current and future results and plans and statements that include the words "may," "could," "should," "would," "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend," "plan" or similar expressions.  These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in such statements.  A major risk is that demand for the Company's products and services is largely derived from the demand for its customers' products, which subjects the Company to uncertainties related to downturns in a customer's business and unanticipated customer production shutdowns. Other major risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the primary and secondary impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, including actions taken in response to the pandemic by various governments, which could exacerbate some or all of the other risks and uncertainties faced by the Company, including the potential for significant increases in raw material costs, supply chain disruptions, customer financial stability, worldwide economic and political conditions, foreign currency fluctuations, significant changes in applicable tax rates and regulations, future terrorist attacks and other acts of violence. Furthermore, the Company is subject to the same business cycles as those experienced by steel, automobile, aircraft, industrial equipment, and durable goods manufacturers. The ultimate impact of COVID-19 on our business will depend on, among other things, the extent, duration and strength of the resurgence of the pandemic, the severity of the disease and the number of people infected with the virus, the continued uncertainty regarding widespread availability of a vaccine, the effects on the economy by the pandemic, including the resulting market volatility, and by the measures taken by governmental authorities and other third parties restricting day-to-day life and business operations and the length of time that such measures remain in place, and governmental programs implemented to assist businesses impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Other factors could also adversely affect us, including those related to the Combination and other acquisitions and the integration of the combined company as well as other acquired businesses. Our forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions about the Company and its operations that are subject to change based on various important factors, some of which are beyond our control.  These risks, uncertainties, and possible inaccurate assumptions relevant to our business could cause our actual results to differ materially from expected and historical results.  All forward-looking statements included in this press release, including expectations about the improvements in business conditions during the remainder of 2020 and future periods, are based upon information available to the Company as of the date of this press release, which may change. Therefore, we caution you not to place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements.  For more information regarding these risks and uncertainties as well as certain additional risks that we face, refer to the Risk Factors section, which appears in Item 1A of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2020, as well as in Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, and in our other reports filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  We do not intend to, and we disclaim any duty or obligation to, update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect new information or future events or for any other reason.  This discussion is provided as permitted by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Man agement believes that an analysis of this data is meaningful to investors because it provides insight with respect to ongoing operating results of the Company and allows investors to better evaluate the financial results of the Company.

These statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. We ha ve based these forward - looking statements, including statements regarding the potential effects of the COVID - 19 pandemic on the Company’s business, results of operations, or financial condition and expectat ions regarding our liquidity position and our continued compliance with the terms of the Company’s credit facility on our current expectations about future events. These forward - looking statements includ e statements with respect to our beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, intentions, financial condition, results of operations, future performance, and business, including but not li mit ed to the potential benefits of the Combination, the impacts on our business as a result of the COVID - 19 pandemic and any projected global economic rebound or anticipated positive results due to Company actions taken in response to the pandemic, and our current and future results and plans and statements that include the words "may," "could," "should," "would," "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "i ntend," "plan" or similar expressions. These forward - looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in such statemen ts. A major risk is that demand for the Company's products and services is largely derived from the demand for its customers' products, which subjects the Company to uncertainties related to downturns in a cu sto mer's business and unanticipated customer production shutdowns. Other major risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the primary and secondary impacts of the COVID - 19 pandemic, inclu ding actions taken in response to the pandemic by various governments, which could exacerbate some or all of the other risks and uncertainties faced by the Company, including the potential for significa nt increases in raw material costs, supply chain disruptions, customer financial stability, worldwide economic and political conditions, foreign currency fluctuations, significant changes in applicable tax rat es and regulations, future terrorist attacks and other acts of violence. Furthermore, the Company is subject to the same business cycles as those experienced by steel, automobile, aircraft, industrial equipment, an d durable goods manufacturers. The ultimate impact of COVID - 19 on our business will depend on, among other things, the extent, duration and strength of the resurgence of the pandemic, the severit y o f the disease and the number of people infected with the virus, the continued uncertainty regarding widespread availability of a vaccine, the effects on the economy by the pandemic, including the resulti ng market volatility, and by the measures taken by governmental authorities and other third parties restricting day - to - day life and business operations and the length of time that such measures remain in plac e, and governmental programs implemented to assist businesses impacted by the COVID - 19 pandemic. Other factors could also adversely affect us, including those related to the Combination and other acquisitions and the integ rat ion of the combined company as well as other acquired businesses. Our forward - looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions about the Company and its operat ions that are subject to change based on various important factors, some of which are beyond our control. These risks, uncertainties, and possible inaccurate assumptions relevant to our business could ca use our actual results to differ materially from expected and historical results. All forward - looking statements included in this presentation, including expectations about the improvements in busines s conditions during the remainder of 2020 and future periods, are based upon information available to the Company as of the date of this presentation, which may change. Therefore, we caution you not to pl ace undue reliance on our forward - looking statements. For more information regarding these risks and uncertainties as well as certain additional risks that we face, refer to the Risk Factors section, whi ch appears in Item 1A of our Quarterly Report on Form 10 - Q for the period ended September 30, 2020, as well as in Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10 - K for the year ended December 31, 2019, and in our oth er reports filed from time to time with the SEC. We do not intend to, and we disclaim any duty or obligation to, update or revise any forward - looking statements to reflect new information or future even ts or for any other reason.

©2019 Quaker Houghton. All Rights Reserved 5 Chairman Comments Third Quarter of 2020 • Strong rebound in our business with net sales growth of 28% and adjusted EBITDA nearly doubling when compared to the second quarter of 2020 • All four business segments showed good sequential growth as our end markets improved during the third quarter of 2020 • Adjusted EBITDA growth continued to benefit from integration cost synergies of approximately $17 million, expanded product margins, and market share gains of 2% in the current quarter • Strong current quarter cashflow reduced net debt by $58 million or 7% compared to second quarter 2020 2020 Outlook • Increased full year guidance to exceed $215 million of adjusted EBITDA in 2020, with the fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA estimated to be in the ballpark of the current quarter results “ As we look forward to 2021, we expect to achieve a 20+% increase in our adjusted EBITDA as we complete our integration cost synergies, continue to take share in the marketplace and benefit from a projected gradual rebound in demand. ” – Michael F. Barry, Chairman, CEO and President

©2019 Quaker Houghton. All Rights Reserved 6 Financial Highlights – Actual Results Third quarter of 2020 • Net sales of $367.2 million increased 13% compared to Q3’19 due to net sales from acquisitions, primarily Houghton and Norman Hay, of $74.6 million; excluding acquisitions, net sales would have declined approximately 10% driven by an 8% decrease in sales volumes due to negative impact from COVID - 19, 1% negative impact from foreign currency translation and 1% decrease from price and product mix • Gross profit increased $35.1 million compared to Q3’19 due primarily to additional gross profit from Houghton and Norman Hay; Q3’20 gross margin was 38.2% compared to 32.3% in Q3’19 which included a $10.2 million expense associated with a purchase accounting adjustment to inventory. Excluding this one - time increase, we estimate Q3’19 gross margin would have been approximately 35.5%. The estimated increase in gross margin was primarily due to lower costs of goods sold as a result of the Company’s progress on Combination - related logistics, procurement and manufacturing cost savings initiatives • SG&A increased due primarily to additional SG&A from Houghton and Norman Hay, partially offset by lower SG&A due to the impact of COVID - 19 cost savings actions, including lower travel expenses, and the benefits of realized cost savings associated with the Combination • Non - operating items compared to Q3’19 include higher interest expense, primarily as a result of an additional month of borrowings to finance the closing of the Combination on August 1, 2019 and additional pandemic - related borrowings this year, and higher other expense in Q3’20 due to higher foreign currency transaction losses, partially offset by lower expenses from the non - service components of pension and postretirement benefits costs • Effective tax rates of an expense of 8.1% and a benefit of 27.6% for Q3’20 and Q3’19, respectively, include various one - time impacts; without these items effective tax rates would have been ~24% and ~20% for Q3’20 and Q3’19, respectively

All Rights Reserved 7 Financial Highlights – Non - GAAP & Pro Forma Third quarter of 2020 Non - GAAP Results • Non - GAAP EPS of $1.56 in both Q3’20 and Q3’19 as higher net income was offset by the additional shares issued at the close of the Combination • Non - GAAP operating income increased to $43.2 million compared to $34.5 million in Q3’19 primarily due to additional operating income from Houghton and Norman Hay and the benefits from cost savings related to the Combination, partially offset by the negative impact of COVID - 19 • Adjusted EBITDA increased 24% to $63.9 million compared to $51.4 million in the prior year quarter, primarily due to the Combination, the benefits of cost synergies realized from the Combination and inclusion of Norman Hay in the current quarter, partially offset by the negative impact of COVID - 19 Pro forma Results • Actual net sales of $367.2 million decreased approximately 5% compared to pro forma net sales of approximately $386 million in the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower volumes from the COVID - 19 impact on global industrial production partially offset by additional net sales from Norman Hay • Adjusted EBITDA of $63.9 million increased approximately 5% compared to pro forma adjusted EBITDA of approximately $61 million in Q3’19, due to the benefits of cost synergies realized from the Combination and benefit of Norman Hay in the current quarter, partially offset by the negative impact of COVID - 19

The information included in this presentation includes non - GAAP (unaudited) financial information that includes EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, non - GAAP operating income, non - GAAP operating margin, non - GAAP net income, non - GAAP earnings per diluted share, and pro forma net sales, net income (loss) attributable to Qua ker Houghton, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin. The Company believes these non - GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information as they enhance a reader’s unders tanding of the financial performance of the Company, are indicative of future operating performance of the Company, and facilitate a comparison among fiscal periods, as the non - GAAP financial measures exclu de items that are not considered indicative of future operating performance or not considered core to the Company’s operations. Non - GAAP results and pro forma information are presented for supplemental informat ional purposes only and should not be considered a substitute for the financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company presents EBITDA which is calculated as net income (loss) attributable to the Company before depreciation and amor tiz ation, interest expense, net, and taxes on income (loss) before equity in net income of associated companies. The Company also presents adjusted EBITDA which is calculated as EBITDA plus or minus certain items th at are not considered indicative of future operating performance or not considered core to the Company’s operations. In addition, the Company presents non - GAAP operating income which is calculated as operating incom e (loss) plus or minus certain items that are not indicative of future operating performance or not considered core to the Company’s operations. Adjusted EBITDA margin and non - GAAP operating margin are calcul ated as the percentage of adjusted EBITDA and non - GAAP operating income to consolidated net sales, respectively. The Company believes these non - GAAP measures provide transparent and useful information a nd are widely used by analysts, investors, and competitors in our industry as well as by management in assessing the operating performance of the Company on a consistent basis. Additionally, the Company presents non - GAAP net income and non - GAAP earnings per diluted share as additional performance measure s. Non - GAAP net income is calculated as adjusted EBITDA, defined above, less depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net, and taxes on income before equity in net income of associated companies , i n each case adjusted, as applicable, for any depreciation, amortization, interest or tax impacts resulting from the non - core items identified in the reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to the Company to a djusted EBITDA. Non - GAAP earnings per diluted share is calculated as non - GAAP net income per diluted share as accounted for under the “two - class share method.” The Company believes that non - GAAP net income and non - GA AP earnings per diluted share provide transparent and useful information and are widely used by analysts, investors, and competitors in our industry as well as by management in assessing the operating perfo rma nce of the Company on a consistent basis. In addition, the Company has provided certain unaudited pro forma financial information in this presentation. The unaudited pro forma financial information is based on the historical consolidated financial statements and results of both Quaker and Houghton and has been prepared to illustrate the effects of the Combination. The unaudited pro fo rma financial information has been presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of Quaker Houghton’s past results of operations, nor is it indicative of the future operating results of Quaker Houghton and should not be considered a substitute for the financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company has not provided pro forma financial information as it relates to the acquire d o perating divisions of Norman Hay plc based on materiality. Pro forma results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 include two months of Houghton’s operations as the Combination closed on Augus t 1 , 2019, while Houghton reflects its stand - alone results for the month of July 2019 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and year - to - date July 2019 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

As it relates to the fourth quarter and full year 2020 expected adjusted EBITDA, 2021 projected adjusted EBITDA growth and ot her forward - looking information described in this presentation, the Company has not provided guidance for comparable GAAP measures or a quantitative reconciliation of forward - looking non - GAAP financial measures t o the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure because it is unable to determine with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items necessary to calculate such measures without unre aso nable effort. These items include, but are not limited to, certain non - recurring or non - core items the Company may record that could materially impact net income, as well as the impact of COVID - 19. These items are uncert ain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on the U.S. GAAP reported results for the guidance period.
