024 Outlook
Koppers continues to expand and optimize its business and make further progress on the company's strategic pillars toward its long-term financial goals. After considering global economic conditions, as well as the ongoing uncertainty associated with geopolitical and supply chain challenges, Koppers expects 2024 sales of approximately $2.25 billion, compared with $2.15 billion in 2023. Adjusted EBITDA is anticipated to be approximately $275 million in 2024, compared with $256.4 million in 2023.
The effective tax rate for adjusted net income attributable to Koppers in 2024 is projected to be approximately 28 percent, slightly above the adjusted tax rate in 2023. Accordingly, 2024 adjusted EPS is forecasted to be in the range of $4.60 to $4.80 per share, compared with $4.36 per share in 2023.
Koppers expects operating cash flows of approximately $150 million in 2024, excluding any impact from pension termination. The company is pursuing a termination of its U.S. qualified pension plan and is targeting this effort for completion in the fourth quarter 2024. An estimated $25 million of funding will be required when this is completed, which will impact operating cash flow.
Koppers anticipates capital expenditures of approximately $100 million in 2024, including capitalized interest, with approximately $29 million allocated to discretionary projects.
