Second Quarter Highlights - Net Loss and Adjusted Net Income were $(0.01) and $0.01 per share for second quarter of 2008 compared to a Net Loss of $(0.11) per share and a Pro Forma Net Loss of $(0.07) per share in the prior year quarter.
MARIETTA, Ga., Aug. 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Graphic Packaging Holding
Company (NYSE: GPK), a leading provider of packaging solutions to food,
beverage and other consumer products companies, today reported a Net Loss for
the second quarter 2008 of $(4.3) million, or $(0.01) per diluted share, based
upon 342.9 million shares. Excluding charges associated with the combination
with Altivity Packaging, LLC ("Altivity"), Adjusted Net Income was $4.8
million, or $0.01 per diluted share. This compares to a second quarter 2007
Net Loss of $(21.3) million, or $(0.11) per diluted share, based upon 201.8
million shares.
"We are pleased with our progress following the combination with Altivity
as results improved for the quarter despite unprecedented rising costs for
fiber, chemicals and energy," said David W. Scheible, President and Chief
Executive Officer. "Higher pricing, continuous improvement cost reductions and
synergy achievement combined to more than offset inflation and drive an
improvement over the prior year period."
"The recent pullback in energy and energy related costs is certainly
welcome, but we also have a series of action plans in place to combat higher
costs. Our first priority is to ensure that the marketplace shares the
inflationary costs we are experiencing. As a result, we are pushing hard to
see that our recently announced price increases for both CUK and CRB are
completely implemented including our new freight allowances with these
customers. In concert with our board price moves, we continue to raise prices
on our contracted folding carton products as negotiated price escalators
reset."
"In addition to driving price increases, we have expedited the timetable
for achieving the previously announced $90 million in annualized synergies
associated with the combination with Altivity. Specifically, by the end of
the second quarter, we had reached annualized synergies in excess of $15
million and now expect to reach our $90 million target by 2010."
Net Sales
Net sales increased 83.2% to $1,141.7 million during second quarter 2008,
compared to second quarter 2007 net sales of $623.1 million. When comparing
against the prior year quarter, net sales in the first quarter of 2008 were
positively impacted by:
-- $496 million from the inclusion of Altivity results;
-- $14 million of favorable pricing; and
-- $9 million of favorable foreign currency exchange rates.
Attached is supplemental data showing second quarter 2008 net sales and
net tons sold by each of the Company's business segments: Paperboard
Packaging, Multi-wall Bag and Specialty Packaging. Pro forma net sales and
pro forma net tons sold are also shown assuming the combination with Altivity
occurred on January 1, 2007.
EBITDA
EBITDA for second quarter 2008 was $129.0 million. Excluding charges
associated with the combination with Altivity, Adjusted EBITDA was $138.1
million. This compares to second quarter 2007 EBITDA of $87.6 million. When
comparing against the prior year quarter, EBITDA was positively impacted by:
-- $35 million from the inclusion of Altivity results;
-- $14 million of favorable pricing;
-- $20 million of lower operating costs as a result of ongoing continuous
improvement programs and favorable performance;
-- $11 million related to the change in fair value of an interest rate
hedging contract which was assumed from Altivity; and
-- $4 million from a lawsuit settlement.
EBITDA was negatively impacted by:
-- $23 million of higher input costs primarily related to increased prices
for fiber, chemicals and energy;
-- $12 million related to a step-up in inventory basis to fair value as a
result of the combination with Altivity; and
-- $8 million of charges related to the combination with Altivity.
Other Results
At the end of the second quarter of 2008, the Company's total debt was
$3,108.2 million, representing a $46.5 million decrease from total debt of
$3,154.7 million at the end of the first quarter 2008. Total debt was
$1,968.4 million at the end of second quarter 2007. Approximately $1.2 billion
of debt was assumed in the connection with the combination with Altivity. The
Company has a $400 million revolving facility. As of June 30, 2008, the
Company had available liquidity under this facility of $319.1 million.
Net interest expense was $57.1 million for second quarter 2008, as
compared to net interest expense of $43.0 million in second quarter 2007. The
increase was primarily due to the additional debt assumed in the combination
with Altivity.
In the second quarter of 2008, the Company incurred $9.6 million of income
tax expense, which was predominately attributable to the noncash expense
associated with the amortization of goodwill for tax purposes. The Company
has a $1.4 billion net operating loss that is available to offset future
taxable income in the United States.
Capital expenditures for second quarter 2008 were $47.4 million compared
to $22.8 million in the second quarter of 2007. Approximately $15.7 million
of second quarter 2008 capital expenditures were related to the inclusion of
Altivity results.
Under the terms of its Credit Agreement, as long as any commitment remains
outstanding under the revolving credit facility, the Company must comply with
a maximum consolidated secured leverage ratio. As of June 30, 2008, the
Company's ratio was 3.28 to 1.00, in compliance with the required maximum
ratio of 5.25 to 1.00. The calculation of this covenant along with a tabular
reconciliation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Credit Agreement EBITDA and
Adjusted Net Loss to Net Loss is attached to this release.
On July 10, 2008, the Company announced that it had signed an agreement
with an affiliate of Sun Capital Partners, Inc. to sell two coated-recycled
board (CRB) mills as required by the U.S. Department of Justice pursuant to
the Consent Decree governing the combination of Graphic Packaging
International, Inc. and Altivity in March 2008. The mills being sold are
located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Wabash, Indiana. The transaction is
subject to review by the U.S. Department of Justice and other customary
closing conditions.

share compares to second quarter 2007 Pro Forma Net Loss of $(22.6) million or
$(0.07) per share;
-- Second quarter 2008 Net Sales of $1,141.7 were 2.3 percent higher than
second quarter 2007 Pro Forma Net Sales of $1,115.9 million; and

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The table below sets forth the Company's earnings before interest expense,
income tax expense, equity in the net earnings of the Company's affiliates,
loss on early extinguishment of debt, depreciation and amortization
("EBITDA"), Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Net Income (Loss). Adjusted EBITDA
and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) exclude charges associated with the Company's
combination with Altivity Packaging, LLC. The Company's management believes
that the presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income
(Loss) provides useful information to investors because these measures are
important measures that management uses in assessing the Company's
performance. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) are
financial measures not calculated in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), and are not measures of
net income, operating income, operating performance or liquidity presented in
accordance with GAAP. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income (Loss)
should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP,
but should not be considered substitutes for or superior to GAAP results. In
addition, our Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) may not be
comparable to Adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled measures utilized by other
companies since such other companies may not calculate Credit Agreement EBITDA
in the same manner as we do.

GRAPHIC PACKAGING HOLDING COMPANY
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(Continued)
The Company's Senior Secured Credit Agreement, or the "Credit Agreement",
and the indentures governing the Company's 8.5% Senior Notes due 2011 and its
9.5% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2013, collectively, the "Notes", limit the
Company's ability, among other things, to incur additional indebtedness,
dispose of assets, incur guarantee obligations, prepay other indebtedness,
make dividend and other restricted payments, create liens, make equity or debt
investments, make acquisitions, modify terms of the indentures under which the
Notes are issued, engage in mergers or consolidations, change the business
conducted by the Company and its subsidiaries, and engage in certain
transactions with affiliates. Such restrictions, together with the highly
leveraged nature of the Company, could limit the Company's ability to respond
to changing market conditions, fund its capital spending program, provide for
unexpected capital investments or take advantage of business opportunities.
Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, as long as any commitment remains
outstanding under the revolving credit facility, the Company must comply with
a maximum consolidated secured leverage ratio, which is defined as the ratio
of: (a) total long-term and short-term indebtedness of the Company and its
consolidated subsidiaries as determined in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), plus the aggregate cash
proceeds received by the Company and its subsidiaries from any receivables or
other securitization but excluding therefrom (i) all unsecured indebtedness,
(ii) all subordinated indebtedness permitted to be incurred under the Credit
Agreement and (iii) all secured indebtedness of foreign subsidiaries to (b)
Adjusted EBITDA, which we refer to as Credit Agreement EBITDA(a). Pursuant to
this financial covenant, the Company must maintain a maximum consolidated
secured leverage ratio of less than the following:
Maximum Consolidated
Secured
Leverage Ratio (a)
January 1, 2008 - September 30, 2008 5.25 to 1.00
October 1, 2008 - September 30, 2009 5.00 to 1.00
October 1, 2009 and thereafter4.75 to 1.00
(a) Credit Agreement EBITDA is defined in the Credit Agreement as
consolidated net income before consolidated net interest expense, non-
cash expenses and charges, total income tax expense, depreciation
expense, expense associated with amortization of intangibles and other
assets, non-cash provisions for reserves for discontinued operations,
extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring gains or losses or charges or
credits, gain or loss associated with sale or write-down of assets not
in the ordinary course of business, any income or loss accounted for
by the equity method of accounting, and projected run rate cost
savings, prior to or within a twelve month period.
At June 30, 2008, the Company was in compliance with the financial
covenant in the Credit Agreement and the ratio was as follows:
Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio - 3.28 to 1.00
The Company's management believes that the presentation of the
consolidated secured leverage ratio and Credit Agreement EBITDA provides
useful information to investors because borrowings under the Credit Agreement
are a key source of the Company's liquidity, and the Company's ability to
borrow under the Credit Agreement is dependent on, among other things, its
compliance with this financial covenant. Any failure by the Company to comply
with this financial covenant could result in an event of default, absent a
waiver or amendment from the lenders under such agreement, in which case the
lenders may be entitled to declare all amounts owed to be due and payable
immediately.
Credit Agreement EBITDA is a financial measure not calculated in
accordance with GAAP, and is not a measure of net income, operating income,
operating performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Credit
Agreement EBITDA should be considered in addition to results prepared in
accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or
superior to GAAP results. In addition, our Credit Agreement EBITDA may not be
comparable to EBITDA or similarly titled measures utilized by other companies
since such other companies may not calculate Credit Agreement EBITDA in the
same manner as we do.
The calculations of the components of the maximum consolidated secured
leverage ratio for and as of the period ended June 30, 2008 are listed below:

In millions June 30, 2008
Short Term Debt$23.3
Long Term Debt 3,084.9
Total Debt $3,108.2
Less Adjustment (b)856.8
Consolidated Secured Indebtedness $2,251.4
(a) As defined by the Credit Agreement, this calculation includes the
historical results of Altivity for the last twelve months.
As defined by the Credit Agreement, represents projected cost savings
expected by the Company to be realized as a result of specific actions
taken or expected to be taken prior to or within twelve months of the
period in which Credit Agreement EBITDA is to be calculated, net of
the amount of actual benefits realized or expected to be realized from
such actions.
The terms of the Credit Agreement limit the amount of projected run
rate cost savings that may be used in calculating Credit Agreement
EBITDA by stipulating that such amount may not exceed the lesser of
(i) ten percent of EBITDA as defined in the Credit Agreement for the
last twelve-month period (before giving effect to projected run rate
cost savings) and (ii) $100 million.
As a result, in calculating Credit Agreement EBITDA above, the Company
used projected run rate cost savings of $62.4, or ten percent of
EBITDA as calculated in accordance with the Credit Agreement, which
amount is lower than total projected cost savings identified by the
Company, net of actual benefits realized for the twelve month period
ended June 30, 2008. Projected run rate cost savings were calculated
by the Company solely for its use in calculating Credit Agreement
EBITDA for purposes of determining compliance with the maximum
consolidated secured leverage ratio contained in the Credit Agreement
and should not be used for any other purpose.
(b) Represents consolidated indebtedness/securitization that is either (i)
unsecured, or (ii) Permitted Subordinated Indebtedness as defined in
the Credit Agreement, or secured indebtedness permitted to be incurred
by the Company's foreign subsidiaries per the Credit Agreement.
The Company's ability to comply in future periods with the financial
covenant in the Credit Agreement will depend on its ongoing financial and
operating performance, which in turn will be subject to economic conditions
and to financial, business and other factors, many of which are beyond the
Company's control, and will be substantially dependent on the selling prices
for the Company's products, raw material and energy costs, and the Company's
ability to successfully implement its overall business strategies, and meet
its profitability objective. If a violation of the financial covenant or any
of the other covenants occurred, the Company would attempt to obtain a waiver
or an amendment from its lenders, although no assurance can be given that the
Company would be successful in this regard. The Credit Agreement and the
indentures governing the Notes have certain cross-default or cross-
acceleration provisions; failure to comply with these covenants in any
agreement could result in a violation of such agreement which could, in turn,
lead to violations of other agreements pursuant to such cross-default or
