Mativ Announces Third Quarter 2024 Results

Chief Executive Officer Julie Schertell commented, “We saw meaningful increases in volume and profitability in Filtration and our overall SAS segment during the third quarter, with SAS segment adjusted EBITDA increasing almost 20% year over year. This was somewhat offset by results in Advanced Films, which were impacted by automotive and construction end markets. As such, we have launched a turnaround effort specific to Advanced Films focused on demand generation, operational performance and increased customer and end market diversification. This turnaround effort will be similar to the approach we used for Healthcare throughout 2023, which year-to-date, resulted in above-market sales growth of more than 5% and materially improved profitability versus the same period in 2023.

Given the prevailing macro-economic conditions and the slow pace of demand recovery, we continue to prioritize those things that we can control and execute on actions to mitigate external market factors, such as the $20 million reduction in non-operating cost announced earlier this year. Additionally, we are increasing capacity in our growth categories of filtration, specialty tapes, release liners and medical films, while at the same time reducing cost and optimizing our supply chain by reducing our plant footprint from 48 sites at the time of the merger to 35 sites today and our warehousing footprint by more than 25%. These actions reduce cost and complexity, and support sustained margin improvements as demand returns.”

AF&PA Disappointed in U.S. Department of Labor’s New “Notice-and-Access” Rule for Retirement Plans

The U.S. Department of Labor put a new rule into effect that allows employee benefit plan administrators to use an electronic “notice-and-access” disclosure system, as a default method, which will make it much more difficult for millions of Americans who received critical, paper-based information about their 401k, pension and retirement plan rules. In a 2019 Pew Research Center survey, 10 percent of U.S. adults said they do not use the internet. American Forest & Paper Association (AF&PA) President and CEO Heidi Brock issued the following statement in response to the rule: “The American Forest & Paper Association is disappointed the Department of Labor’s ‘notice-and-access’ rule will result in fewer Americans receiving critical financial information to help them plan for retirement. “By creating electronic disclosures as the default, U.S. retirement plan holders must now navigate an onerous process to retrieve critical plan and benefit information that would otherwise arrive automatically and reliably by mail."
