Operating cash flow was $1.5 billion, down 18 percent year-on-year, while adjusted free cash flow was $1.4 billion, down 16 percent year-on-year.
3M returned $1.0 billion to shareholders via dividends and gross share repurchases.
Received approximately $1 billion in consideration and reduced outstanding shares by 16 million via exchange offer due to Food Safety divestiture.
ST. PAUL, Minn. – October 25, 2022 − 3M (NYSE: MMM) today reported third-quarter 2022 results.
“We continue to execute our strategies and deliver for our customers in a highly uncertain environment,” said 3M chairman and CEO Mike Roman. “Excluding the impact of the decline in disposable respirator sales, our team posted over 3 percent organic growth. We delivered sequential and year-over-year margin expansion, amidst macroeconomic challenges and the strengthening U.S. dollar.”

“We continue to position 3M for the future through investments for growth, productivity and sustainability, along with active portfolio management,” Roman continued. “This quarter we divested our food safety business and began executing the work-streams to successfully spin our Health Care business, resulting in two world-class, public companies.”
3M updated its full-year sales and earnings expectations to reflect the continued strengthening of the U.S. dollar and the uncertain macroeconomic environment.
Total sales growth: -3.5 to -3.0 percent vs. -2.5 to -0.5 percent prior
Organic sales growth: 1.5 to 2.0 percent vs. 1.5 to 3.5 percent prior
Acquisition and divestiture sales growth: -0.5 percent vs. 0 percent prior
Foreign currency translation impact on sales: -4.5 percent vs. -4.0 percent prior
Adjusted earnings per share^: $10.10 to $10.35 vs. $10.30 to $10.80 prior
Operating cash flow^ of $6.8 to $7.4 billion contributing to 85% to 95% adjusted free cash flow conversion^
See the “Supplemental Financial Information Non-GAAP Measures” section for applicable information.
^ As further discussed at * therein, 3M cannot, without unreasonable effort, forecast certain items required to develop meaningful comparable GAAP financial measures and, therefore, does not provide them on a forward-looking basis reflecting these items.

*    3M cannot, without unreasonable effort, forecast certain items required to develop meaningful comparable GAAP financial measures and, therefore, does not provide them on a forward-looking basis reflecting these items. These include, but are not limited to, special items such as net costs for significant litigation, projected divestiture gains, divestiture costs, and divestiture-related restructuring. This is due to limitations in predicting with reasonable certainty the timing and ultimate outcome of significant litigation, certain conditions outside of 3M’s control regarding divestitures, the meaningful amount and timing of costs involved over the duration of an announced segment-sized divestiture, and numerous other conditions outside of 3M’s control. 3M believes these limitations would result in a range of projected values so broad as to not be meaningful to investors. For these reasons, 3M believes that the probable significance of such information is low. Additionally, for similar reasons, 3M does not include the impact of potentially-divested businesses on expected operations in the forecasted outlook guidance it provides until close of a transaction. Information with respect to special items for applicable historical periods is included herein.
__________________________
(a)In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP, 3M also provides non-GAAP measures that adjust for the impacts of special items. Special items for the periods presented include the items described in the section entitled “Description of Special Items”. Operating income (loss), segment operating income (loss), income before taxes, net income, earnings per share, and the effective tax rate are all measures for which 3M provides the reported GAAP measure and a measure adjusted for special items. The adjusted measures are not in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for, GAAP measures. While the Company includes certain items in its measure of segment operating performance, it also considers these non-GAAP measures in evaluating and managing its operations. The Company believes that discussion of results adjusted for special items is useful to investors in understanding underlying business performance, while also providing additional transparency to the special items. Special items impacting operating income (loss) are reflected in Corporate and Unallocated, except as described with respect to net costs for significant litigation in the “Description of Special Items” section. The determination of these items may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
In the first quarter of 2022, the Company changed the extent of matters and charges/benefits it includes within special items with respect to net costs for significant litigation. Previously, 3M included net costs, when significant, associated with changes in accrued liabilities related to respirator mask/asbestos litigation and PFAS-related other environmental matters, along with the associated tax impacts. The non-GAAP measure changes involved including net costs for litigation related to 3M's Combat Arms Earplugs, expanding net costs to include external legal fees and insurance recoveries associated with the applicable matters in addition to changes in accrued liabilities, and to include all such net costs for the applicable matters, not just when considered significant. The information provided herein reflects the impacts of these changes for all periods presented.

(b)Adjusted free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow conversion are not defined under U.S. GAAP. Therefore, they should not be considered a substitute for income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company defines adjusted free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities, adjusted for special items, less purchases of property, plant and equipment. Cash payments associated with special items in the determination of adjusted free cash flow are reflected net of applicable tax using the U.S. statutory corporate tax rate during the period of payment. It should not be inferred that the entire adjusted free cash flow amount is available for discretionary expenditures. The Company defines adjusted free cash flow conversion as adjusted free cash flow divided by net income attributable to 3M, adjusted for special items. Special items for the periods presented include the items described in section entitled “Description of Special Items”. The Company believes adjusted free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow conversion are meaningful to investors as they are useful measures of performance and the Company uses these measures as an indication of the strength of the company and its ability to generate cash.

______________________________________
(c)     Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are not defined under U.S. GAAP. Therefore, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin should not be considered a substitute for other measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to 3M, adjusted for net income/(loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest, (income)/loss from unconsolidated subsidiaries, provision for income taxes, other expense/(income), depreciation and amortization expense, and special items. For business segments, the Company defines adjusted EBITDA as business segment operating income (loss) (3M’s measure of segment operating performance) adjusted for depreciation and amortization expense and special items. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA margin as adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. Special items for the periods presented include the items described in the section entitled “Description of Special Items”. The Company considers these non-GAAP measures in evaluating and managing the Company’s operations. The Company believes adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are meaningful to investors as they provide useful analyses of ongoing underlying operating trends.

(d)     Net debt is not defined under U.S. GAAP and may not be computed the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company defines net debt as total debt less the total of cash, cash equivalents and current and long-term marketable securities. 3M believes net debt is meaningful to investors as 3M considers net debt and its components to be an important indicator of liquidity and a guiding measure of capital structure strategy.
Description of Special Items:
In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company also provides various non-GAAP measures that incorporate adjustments for the impacts of special items. Special items incorporated in the preparation of these non-GAAP measures for the periods presented include the items described below:
Net costs for significant litigation:
These relate to 3M's respirator mask/asbestos, PFAS-related other environmental, and Combat Arms Earplugs matters. Net costs include the impacts of changes in accrued liabilities, external legal fees, and insurance recoveries, along with the associated tax impacts. Prior to initiating voluntary chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings in July 2022, net costs related to Combat Arms Earplugs and Aearo-respirator mask/asbestos matters along with non-Aearo respirator mask/asbestos matters were reflected as special items in the Safety and Industrial business segment. During the bankruptcy period, net costs related to Combat Arms Earplugs and Aearo-respirator mask/asbestos matters are reflected as corporate special items in Corporate and Unallocated. In the third quarter of 2022 and 2021, 3M made payments of approximately $318 million and $105 million, respectively, related to net costs for significant litigation. In the first nine months of 2022 and 2021, 3M made payments of approximately $681 million and $258 million, respectively, related to net costs for significant litigation.
Divestiture costs:
These include costs related to separating and divesting substantially an entire business segment of 3M following public announcement of its intended divestiture. In the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, 3M made payments of approximately $3 million associated with divestiture costs.
Gain/loss on sale of businesses:
In the third quarter of 2022, 3M recorded a pre-tax gain of $2.7 billion ($2.7 billion after tax) related to the split-off and combination of its Food Safety business with Neogen Corporation.
Divestiture-related restructuring actions:
In the third quarter of 2022, following the split-off of the Food Safety business, management approved and committed to undertake certain restructuring actions addressing corporate functional costs across 3M in relation to the magnitude of amounts previously allocated to the divested business. In the third quarter of 2022 and 2021, 3M made payments of approximately $4 million and $2 million, respectively, associated with divestiture-related restructuring actions. In the first nine months of 2022 and 2021, 3M made payments of approximately $5 million and $7 million, respectively, associated with divestiture-related restructuring actions.
Russia exit charges:
In the third quarter of 2022, 3M recorded a charge primarily related to impairment of net assets in Russia in connection with management’s committed exit and disposal plan. In the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, 3M made payments of approximately $2 million, related to Russia exit charges.

(e)     Total sales change is calculated based on reported sales results. The components of sales change include organic local-currency sales, acquisitions, divestitures, and translation. Organic local-currency sales include both organic volume impacts (which excludes acquisition and divestiture impacts) and selling price changes. Acquisition and divestiture impacts are measured separately for the first 12 months post-transaction.

BUSINESS SEGMENTS
(Unaudited)

3M discloses business segment operating income as its measure of segment profit/loss, reconciled to both total 3M operating income and income before taxes. Business segment operating income excludes certain expenses and income that are not allocated to business segments (as described below in “Corporate and Unallocated”).
Effective in the first quarter of 2022, the measure of segment operating performance used by 3M’s chief operating decision maker (CODM) changed and, as a result, 3M’s disclosed measure of segment profit/loss (business segment operating income) was updated. The change to business segment operating income aligns with the update to how the CODM assesses performance and allocates resources for the Company’s business segments. The changes included the items described below. The financial information presented herein reflects the impact of these business segment reporting changes for all periods presented.
Eliminating inclusion of dual credit in measure of segment operating performance
3M business segment operating performance measures were updated to no longer include dual credit to business segments for certain sales and related operating income. Management previously evaluated its business segments based on net sales and operating income performance, including dual credit reporting. 3M reflected additional (“dual”) credit to another business segment when the customer account activity (“sales district”) with respect to the particular product sold to the external customer was provided by a different business segment. For example, privacy screen protection products are primarily sold by the Display Materials and Systems Division within the Transportation and Electronics business segment; however, certain sales districts within the Consumer business segment provide the customer account activity for sales of the product to particular customers. In this example, the non-primary selling segment (Consumer) previously would also have received credit for the associated net sales initiated through its sales district and the related approximate operating income. The offset to the dual credit business segment reporting was reflected as a reconciling item entitled “Elimination of Dual Credit,” such that sales and operating income in total were unchanged.
Reflecting certain litigation-related costs in the Safety and Industrial segment's operating performance measure
3M's business segment operating performance measure with respect to its Safety and Industrial business segment was updated relative to litigation-related costs for non-Aearo and Aearo respirator respirator mask/asbestos litigation matters. Previously, 3M included these costs, when significant, as a special item within Corporate and Unallocated. 3M changed to include all litigation-related costs associated with respirator mask/asbestos litigation matters (along with other Safety and Industrial matters already included therein, such as those related to Combat Arms Earplugs) within the Safety and Industrial business segment. Note, however, that prospectively during the Aearo chapter 11 bankruptcy period (which began in July 2022) net costs for significant litigation associated with Combat Arms Earplugs and Aearo-respirator mask/asbestos matters are reflected in Corporate and Unallocated.

Corporate and Unallocated
Corporate and Unallocated operating income includes “corporate special items” and “other corporate expense-net”. Corporate special items include net costs for significant litigation associated with Combat Arms Earplugs and Aearo-respirator mask/asbestos matters during the chapter 11 bankruptcy period (which began in July 2022) and with PFAS-related other environmental matters. Corporate special items also include divestiture costs, gain/loss on business divestitures, divestiture-related restructuring costs, and Russia exit costs. Divestiture costs include costs related to separating and divesting substantially an entire business segment of 3M following public announcement of its intended divestiture. Other corporate expense-net includes items such as net costs related to limited unallocated corporate staff and centrally managed material resource centers of expertise costs, corporate philanthropic activity, and other net costs that 3M may choose not to allocate directly to its business segments. Other corporate expense-net also includes costs and income from transition supply, manufacturing, and service arrangements with Neogen Corporation following the 2022 split-off of 3M's Food Safety business and with the acquirer of the former Drug Delivery business following its 2020 divestiture. Items classified as revenue from this activity are included in Corporate and Unallocated net sales. Because Corporate and Unallocated includes a variety of miscellaneous items, it is subject to fluctuation on a quarterly and annual basis.
