Pyxus International, Inc. Reports Fiscal Year 2023 First Quarter Results

Morrisville, NC – August 11, 2022 – Pyxus International, Inc. (OTC Pink: PYYX) (“Pyxus” or the “Company”), a global value-added agricultural company, today announced results for its fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2022.

Highlights (comparisons are to the relevant prior-year period):

•Sales and other operating revenues increased $10.6 million, or 3.2%, to $343.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022.

•Net loss attributable to Pyxus International, Inc. increased $3.2 million, or 27.8%, to $14.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to a $7.6 million decrease in income tax benefit.

•Adjusted EBITDA* increased $2.5 million, or 17.1%, to $17.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022.

•Cash and cash equivalents was $165.4 million, an increase of $85.8 million, as of June 30, 2022.

•Inventories, net was $980.1 million, an increase of $126.0 million as of June 30, 2022 with more than 90% of processed tobacco inventory committed to specific customers to meet near-term forecasted demand.

•Foreign seasonal lines of credit were $545.2 million, an increase of $141.4 million as of June 30, 2022.

Pieter Sikkel, Pyxus' President and CEO said, "We have experienced strong demand thus far in fiscal 2023. As expected, our first quarter was consistent with the prior fiscal year, with increased demand and more normalized timing of shipments from Asia, partially offset by the timing of shipments from Africa and South America.

"As of June 30, 2022, our inventory increased $126.0 million compared to the prior year primarily due to higher new crop green tobacco prices and processing costs in South America, and accelerated new crop buying activities in certain key markets. In addition, our processed tobacco inventory continues to be more than 90% committed to specific customers. The overall increase in inventory and our committed inventory levels for processed tobacco position us to meet near-term demand and we expect to see stronger shipments in subsequent quarters in fiscal 2023, consistent with historical trends. Despite higher green tobacco prices and processing costs in South America, we were able to effectively manage our working capital to meet our purchasing goals for the current crop cycle.

"Crop sizes in certain markets in Africa, Asia, and South America are below expectations due to the adverse impacts of prevailing La Nina weather patterns during the growing season, which has exacerbated supply shortages. We continue to engage with customers in transparent dialogue regarding the impacts of La Nina and inflation on our business. In response to these and other market dynamics, we accelerated buying activities in certain key markets, and continue to invest in research trials, local programs, and additional training for our global agronomy team to further support our efforts to maximize grower efficiencies and yield despite unpredictable weather patterns.

"We continue to expect fiscal 2023 sales to be between $1.75 billion and $1.95 billion and adjusted EBITDA* to be between $130 million and $160 million. Moving forward, we are committed to recovering crop sizes, and aligning volumes in future years with customer expectations, as we work to deliver stakeholder value, and together, grow a better world."

*Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) is not a measure of results under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Adjusted EBITDA expected for fiscal 2023 is calculated in a manner consistent with Adjusted EBITDA presented for historical periods as presented in the reconciliation tables included in this press release.

Performance Summary for Three Months Ended June 30, 2022

Sales and other operating revenues increased $10.6 million, or 3.2%, to $343.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from $333.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was primarily due to a 4.3% increase in leaf volume driven by greater demand and more normalized timing of shipments from Asia. This increase was partially offset by the timing of shipments from Africa and South America.

Cost of goods and services sold increased $12.0 million, or 4.1%, to $303.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from $291.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was mainly due to the increase in sales and other operating revenues.

Gross profit decreased $1.3 million, or 3.1%, to $40.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from $42.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Gross profit as a percent of sales decreased to 11.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from 12.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2021. These decreases were driven by delayed shipments from Africa and South America and were partially offset by accelerated shipments from Asia.

Income tax benefit decreased $7.5 million, or 89.3%, to $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from $8.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was driven by the Company utilizing a different method for estimating tax expense (benefit) for the period ended June 30, 2022. Using the discrete method for the period ended June 30, 2022, the Company determined current and deferred income tax expense (benefit) as if the interim three-month period was a year-end period, which resulted in the recognition of the fiscal 2023 year-to-date benefit in the quarter.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s liquidity requirements are affected by various factors including crop seasonality, foreign currency and interest rates, green tobacco prices, customer mix, crop size and quality. In line with our strategy, the increase in green tobacco prices and processing costs in South America required additional working capital that was primarily sourced from increased seasonal lines and more efficient cash management. The following summarizes the Company’s available credit lines and cash, including availability under foreign seasonal lines of credit:

(in millions)	June 30, 2022		June 30, 2021
Availability under foreign seasonal lines of credit	$	171.9	$	224.5
All available credit lines and cash	$	351.2	$	314.4

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Readers are cautioned that the statements contained in this report regarding expectations of the Company's performance or other matters that may affect its business, results of operations, or financial condition are “forward-looking statements” as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements, which are based on current expectations of future events, may be identified by the use of words such as “strategy,” “expects,” “continues,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “will,” “estimates,” “intends,” “projects,” “goals,” “targets,” and other words of similar meaning. These statements also may be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. If underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, or if known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results could vary materially from those anticipated, estimated, or projected. Some of these risks and uncertainties include:

•risks related to the Company's indebtedness, including that the Company has substantial debt which may adversely affect it by limiting future sources of financing, interfering with its ability to pay interest, and principal on its indebtedness and subjecting it to additional risks, the Company requires a significant amount of cash to service indebtedness and its ability to generate cash depends on many factors beyond its control, the Company may not be able

2

to refinance or renew its indebtedness, which may have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, the Company may not be able to satisfy the covenants included in its financing arrangements, which could result in the default of its outstanding debt obligations, and despite current indebtedness levels, the Company may still be able to incur substantially more debt, which could exacerbate further the risks associated with its significant leverage;

•risks and uncertainties relating to the Company's liquidity, including but not limited to: whether foreign lenders that have provided short-term operating credit lines to fund leaf tobacco operations at the local level cease to provide such funding, uncertainty and continuing risks associated with the Company’s ability to achieve its goals and continue as a going concern, and unanticipated developments with respect to liquidity needs and sources of liquidity could result in a deficiency in liquidity;

•risk and uncertainties related to the Company’s leaf tobacco operations, including changes in the timing of anticipated shipments, changes in anticipated geographic product sourcing, changes in relevant capital markets affecting the terms and availability of short-term seasonal financing, political instability, currency and interest rate fluctuations, the impact of high inflation, shifts in the global supply and demand position for tobacco products, changes in tax laws and regulations or the interpretation of tax laws and regulations, resolution of tax matters, adverse weather conditions, the impact of climate change on weather patterns in tobacco-growing regions, the impact of disasters or other unusual events affecting international commerce, the impacts of potential international sanctions on the Company's ability to sell or source tobacco in certain regions, potential changes in governmental regulations applicable to tobacco products, and changes in costs incurred in supplying products and related services; and

•risks and uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including possible delays in shipments of leaf tobacco, including from the closure or restricted activities at ports or other channels, disruptions to the Company’s operations or the operations of suppliers and customers resulting from restrictions on the ability of employees and others in the supply chain to travel and work, border closures, determinations by Pyxus or shippers to temporarily suspend operations in affected areas, whether the Company’s operations that have been classified as "essential" under various governmental orders restricting business activities will continue to be so classified or, even if so classified, whether site-specific health and safety concerns related to COVID-19 might otherwise require operations at any of the Company's facilities to be halted for some period of time, negative consumer purchasing behavior with respect to the Company’s products or the products of its leaf tobacco customers during periods of government mandates restricting activities imposed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the extent to which the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s operations and the demand for its products may not coincide with impacts experienced in the United States due to the international scope of its operations, including in emerging and other markets in which the Company operates where the timing and severity of COVID-19 outbreaks and the pace of COVID-19 vaccinations may differ from those in the United States.

A further list and description of these risks, uncertainties, and other factors can be found in Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended March 31, 2022 and in its other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements that it may make from time to time except to the extent required by law.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release contains financial measures that have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). They include EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, and Net Debt. Tables showing the reconciliation of historical non-GAAP financial measures are attached to the release. The range of Adjusted EBITDA anticipated for fiscal year ending March 31, 2022 is calculated in a manner consistent with the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA in the attached tables. Because of the forward-looking nature of the estimated range of Adjusted EBITDA, it is impractical to present a quantitative reconciliation of such measure to a comparable GAAP measure, and accordingly no such GAAP measure is being presented.

1.Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA"), Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, and Net Debt are not measures of results of operations, cash flows from operations or indebtedness under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") and should not be considered as an alternative to other U.S. GAAP measurements.
