• | 2017 Net Earnings from Continuing Operations of $63 Million, Reported Net Earnings Per Share from Continuing Operations of $0.33 and Operating Cash Flow of $398 Million |

• | Provides Full Year 2018 Outlook |
CHARLOTTE, N.C., February 8, 2018 – Sealed Air Corporation (NYSE: SEE) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2017. Commenting on these results, Ted Doheny, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “In 2017, we exceeded our previously provided guidance for Net Sales, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EPS and Free Cash Flow. Our sales growth accelerated into year-end, resulting in 11% growth in the fourth quarter and 6% for the full year. We capitalized on strong end market trends within the protein and e-Commerce and fulfillment sectors and experienced increased demand for our new innovations. We executed on our share repurchase program by returning $1.3 billion of capital through the use of open market and accelerated share repurchase programs since January 1, 2017. We currently have approximately $867 million remaining under the authorized repurchase program.”
Doheny continued, "I have been working closely with our leadership team to accelerate our strategy. I’m excited to see the potential that we have within Sealed Air and take our performance to the next level. In 2018, we plan to drive profitable growth, recognize and promote talent and further improve productivity with our Sealed Air Operational Excellence culture. We will continue to focus on developing sustainable solutions that leave our world, environment and communities better than we found them."
Unless otherwise stated, all results compare fourth quarter 2017 results to fourth quarter 2016 results from continuing operations. As a result of the sale of Diversey, which refers to Diversey Care and the food hygiene and cleaning business, we have changed our segment reporting structure effective as of January 1, 2017. Food Care includes the Medical Applications business, which was previously reported under 'Other.' Additionally, Food Care excludes the food hygiene and cleaning business, which is a component of Diversey and classified as discontinued operations. Year-over-year financial discussions present operating results from continuing operations as reported, and on a constant dollar basis. Constant dollar refers to unit volume and price/mix performance and excludes the impact of currency translation from all periods referenced. Additionally, non-U.S. GAAP adjusted financial measures, such as Adjusted Earnings Before Interest Expense, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), Adjusted Net Earnings, Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share (“Adjusted EPS”) and Adjusted Tax Rate, exclude the impact of specified items (“Special Items”), such as restructuring charges, charges related to the sale of Diversey, charges related to ceasing operations in Venezuela, cash-settled stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) granted as part of the original Diversey acquisition, special tax items (“Tax Special Items”) and certain other infrequent or one-time items. Please refer to the supplemental information included with this press release for a reconciliation of Non-U.S. GAAP to U.S. GAAP financial measures.
Fourth Quarter Financial and Business Highlights
• | In the fourth quarter, Food Care net sales of $764 million increased 8% as reported. Currency had a positive impact on Food Care net sales of 2%, or $15 million. On a constant dollar basis, net sales increased 6% driven by volume growth of 5% and favorable price/mix of 1%. Volume trends were led by 7% growth in North America, 6% in Latin America and 4% in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA), partially offset by a 2% decline in Asia Pacific. Adjusted EBITDA of $162 million or 21.2% of net sales was primarily attributable to positive volume trends and favorable foreign currency, which were offset by higher raw material and freight costs as well as non-material costs including salary and wage increases. |
• | Product Care net sales of $464 million in the fourth quarter were up 18% as reported. Currency had a positive impact on Product Care net sales of 2%, or $9 million. On a constant dollar basis, net sales increased 15% primarily due to the acquisition of Fagerdala, which was completed on October 2, 2017, of $24 million or 6%, increased volumes of 5% and favorable price/mix of 4%. Adjusted EBITDA of $95 million or 20.4% of net sales was attributable to volume growth, which was partially offset by non-material costs including salary and wage increases as well as higher raw material and freight costs. |

• | Since January 1, 2017, Sealed Air repurchased approximately $1.3 billion of shares through a combination of open market repurchases and accelerated share repurchase (ASR) programs. The Company has $867 million remaining under the current authorized repurchase program. |

Net income in the fourth quarter 2017 was unfavorably impacted by $78 million of special items, including $42 million of tax related items, $21 million related to the sale of Diversey, $11 million primarily related to acquisition activity and $5 million of restructuring and other restructuring associated costs. Net earnings in the fourth quarter 2016 included $53 million of special items, including $62 million of tax related items partially offset by $8 million of charges related to restructuring and other costs associated with our restructuring programs.
Full year 2017 net earnings from continuing operations on a reported basis was $63 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, as compared to net earnings from continuing operations of $292 million, or $1.48 per diluted share, for full year 2016.

The effective tax rate in the fourth quarter of 2017 was 79.0%, compared to the effective tax rate of (23.8)% in the fourth quarter of 2016. The effective tax rate in the fourth quarter of 2017 was negatively impacted primarily by the revaluation of deferred tax assets as a result of U.S. Tax Reform. The effective tax rate in the fourth quarter of 2016 was favorably impacted by changes in our repatriation strategy.
The effective tax rate for full year 2017 was 84.0%, compared to the effective tax rate of 24.6% for full year 2016. The 2017 rate was negatively impacted primarily by additional tax expenses related to the sale of Diversey and the revaluation of deferred tax assets as a result of U.S. Tax Reform.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2017 Non-U.S. GAAP Summary, Continuing Operations
Constant dollar net sales growth of 9% for the fourth quarter of 2017 was attributable to volume growth of 5%, favorable price/mix of 2% and $24 million in sales from the Fagerdala acquisition. By region, in constant dollars, North America sales increased 10%, EMEA 5%, Latin America 6% and Asia Pacific 17%.
Constant dollar net sales growth of 5% for full year 2017 was attributable to volume growth of 5% and $24 million in sales from the Fagerdala acquisition. By region, in constant dollars, North America sales increased 8%, EMEA 1%, Latin America 3% and Asia Pacific 5%.

Adjusted EBITDA for full year 2017 was $833 million, or 18.7% of net sales, compared to $809 million, or 19.2% of net sales for full year 2016. Adjusted EBITDA included $107 million of Corporate expenses for full year 2017 as compared to $127 million for full year 2016. The decrease in corporate expenses is due to the Company's efforts to address stranded costs associated with the sale of Diversey and cost containment actions.
Adjusted EPS was $0.58 for the fourth quarter 2017. This compares to Adjusted EPS of $0.50 in the fourth quarter 2016. The Adjusted Tax Rate was 33.7% in the fourth quarter 2017, compared to 24.9% in the fourth quarter 2016.

2
Cash Flow and Net Debt
Cash flow provided by operating activities in the year ended December 31, 2017 was $398 million, which is net of $49 million of restructuring payments and $207 million of payments related to the sale of Diversey, which included $170 million of tax payments and the remainder primarily attributable to professional fees required to facilitate the separation.
Capital expenditures were $184 million in the year ended December 31, 2017. Free Cash Flow, defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures and payments related to the sale of Diversey, was an inflow of $421 million in the year ended December 31, 2017.
The Company repurchased 27.3 million shares for approximately $1.2 billion, with the remaining $80 million settled in the first quarter of 2018, and paid cash dividends of $120 million during the year ended December 31, 2017.
Net Debt, defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents, decreased to $2.7 billion as of December 31, 2017 from $3.8 billion as of December 31, 2016. This decrease in net debt primarily resulted from payments of debt and net cash received as part of the sale of Diversey.
Outlook for Full Year 2018

Website Information
We routinely post important information for investors on our website, www.sealedair.com, in the "Investor Relations" section. We use this website as a means of disclosing material, non-public information and for complying with our disclosure obligations under Regulation FD. Accordingly, investors should monitor the Investor Relations section of our website, in addition to following our press releases, SEC filings, public conference calls, presentations and webcasts.

Non-U.S. GAAP Information
In this press release and supplement, we have included several non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, including Net Debt, Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted EPS, net sales on a “constant dollar” or “organic” basis, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Tax Rate, as our management believes these measures are useful to investors. We present results and guidance, adjusted to exclude the effects of Special Items and their related tax impact that would otherwise be included under U.S. GAAP, to aid in comparisons with other periods or prior guidance. In addition, non-U.S. GAAP measures are used by management to review and analyze our operating performance and, along with other data, as internal measures for setting annual budgets and forecasts, assessing financial performance, providing guidance and comparing our financial performance with our peers and may also be used for purposes of determining incentive compensation. The non-U.S. GAAP information has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for U.S. GAAP information. It does not purport to represent any similarly titled U.S. GAAP information and is not an indicator of our performance under U.S. GAAP. Non-U.S. GAAP financial measures that we present may not be comparable with similarly titled measures used by others. Investors are cautioned against placing undue reliance on these non-U.S. GAAP measures. For a reconciliation of these U.S. GAAP measures to non-U.S. GAAP measures and other important information on our use of non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, see the attached supplementary information entitled “Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows” (under the section entitled “Non-U.S. GAAP Free Cash Flow”), “Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP Net Earnings and U.S. GAAP Net Earnings Per Share to Non-U.S. GAAP Adjusted Net Earnings and Non-U.S. GAAP Adjusted Net Earnings Per Share” “Segment Information,” “Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP Net Earnings to Non-U.S. GAAP Total Company Adjusted EBITDA,” “Components of Change in Net Sales by Segment,” “Components of Changes in Net Sales by Region,” “Components of Organic Change in Net Sales by Segment,” and “Components of Organic Changes in Net Sales by Region.” Information reconciling forward-looking U.S. GAAP measures to non-U.S. GAAP measures is not available without unreasonable effort.
*We have not provided guidance for the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures, as they are not available without unreasonable effort due to the high variability, complexity, and low visibility with respect to certain Special Items, including gains and losses on the disposition of businesses, the ultimate outcome of certain legal or tax proceedings, foreign currency gains or losses resulting from the volatile currency market in Venezuela, and other unusual gains and losses. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to our results computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 concerning our business, consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

(2) | Due to the ongoing challenging economic situation in Venezuela, the Company approved a program in the second quarter of 2016 to cease operations in the country. This resulted in total costs of $49.4 million being incurred which included a voluntary reduction in headcount including severance and termination benefits for employees of $0.3 million, depreciation and amortization expense related to fixed assets and intangibles of $0.5 million, inventory reserves of $0.4 million, income tax expense of $0.9 million and the reclassification of $47.3 million of cumulative translation adjustment resulting in a charge to Net income as the Company’s decision to cease operations is similar to a substantially complete liquidation. |
(3) | For the year ended December 31, 2017, there was a revision to net earnings from discontinued operations, net of tax, on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations related to depreciation and amortization on Diversey assets held for sale. As a result, net earnings from discontinued operations, net of tax, increased $16.4 million and increased net earnings per basic and diluted shares by $0.09. |

(2) | Our price/mix reported above includes the net impact of our pricing actions and rebates as well as the period-to-period change in the mix of products sold. Also included in our reported price/mix is the net effect of some of our customers purchasing our products in non-U.S. dollar or euro-denominated countries at selling prices denominated in U.S. dollars or euros.

(3) | Total constant dollar change is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure which excludes the impact of foreign currency translation. Since we are a U.S. domiciled company, we translate our foreign currency denominated financial results into U.S. dollars. Due to changes in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar, translating our financial results from foreign currencies to U.S. dollars may result in a favorable or unfavorable impact. It is important that we take into account the effects of foreign currency translation when we view our results and plan our strategies. Nonetheless, we cannot control changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Consequently, when our management looks at our financial results to measure the core performance of our business, we exclude the impact of foreign currency translation by translating our current period results at prior period foreign currency exchange rates. We also may exclude the impact of foreign currency translation when making incentive compensation determinations. As a result, our management believes that these presentations are useful internally and may be useful to our investors. |
