Civeo Announces Third Quarter 2014 Earnings

Third quarter results exceeded previous quarterly guidance
Maintaining fourth quarter guidance
Announcing 4^th quarter dividend of $0.13 per share

HOUSTON, Nov. 5, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Civeo Corporation (NYSE:CVEO) reported net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 of $32.4 million, or $0.30 per diluted share. These results compare to net income of $39.6 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2013.

The Company generated revenues of $243.3 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $92.5 million during the third quarter of 2014 (EBITDA is defined as net income plus interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted to exclude impairment charges and certain other costs such as those incurred associated with the spin-off). These results compare to revenues of $245.1 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $98.3 million reported in the third quarter of 2013. Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA were down year-over-year primarily due to the unfavorable impact on consolidated results of a stronger U.S. dollar compared to the Canadian dollar, a year-over-year decline of 5%, lower occupancy levels in both the Australian villages and Canadian lodges and lower average daily rates at the Canadian lodges.

The Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, Bradley J. Dodson, stated, "Civeo generated better than expected results for the third quarter of 2014. Occupancy and margins for our Canadian and Australian operations were better than expected. In addition, our results reflected increased contributions from the McClelland Lake Lodge and cost containment efforts in Australia. The U.S. operations were as expected. As previously discussed, we continue to expect lower earnings in the fourth quarter as activity in the Canadian oil sands' region softens coupled with holiday downtime. We are maintaining our initial fourth quarter guidance of $200 million to $210 million of revenues with EBITDA margins of 32% to 34%. We continue to monitor lower oil and metallurgical coal prices and their potential impact on customer spending announcements as we look for clarity around 2015 activity levels."

Mr. Dodson continued, "At the end of the quarter, we were pleased to complete our thorough analysis of our structural alternatives and have begun our efforts to redomicile to Canada. Moving the company to Canada will provide operational and financial efficiencies as well as an optimal tax position. We expect to complete the migration to Canada in the second or third quarter of 2015."

For the first nine months of 2014, the Company reported revenues of $723.2 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $262.0 million and net income of $82.6 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, which included a $0.12 per diluted share after-tax loss from transition costs, debt extinguishment costs and an impairment incurred in connection with the spin-off from Oil States, a $0.03 per diluted share after-tax loss from severance costs associated with the termination of an executive, and a $0.02 per diluted share after-tax loss from the impairment of assets, and for which the return or reimbursement is unlikely. For the first nine months of 2013, the Company reported revenues of $782.6 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $319.1 million and net income of $136.4 million, or $1.28 per diluted share, which included a pre-tax gain of $4.0 million, or $0.03 per diluted share after-tax related to the reversal of an estimated earnout liability associated with an acquisition, offset by a $0.01 per diluted share after-tax loss from debt extinguishment costs.

BUSINESS SEGMENT RESULTS

(Unless otherwise noted, the following discussion compares the quarterly results for the third quarter of 2014 to the results for the third quarter of 2013.)

Canada

The Canadian segment generated revenues of $174.1 million and EBITDA of $67.1 million for the third quarter of 2014 compared to revenues and EBITDA of $167.2 million and $65.0 million, respectively, in the third quarter of 2013. Our third quarter 2014 results were negatively impacted by a weaker Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar which reduced revenues by $8.5 million and EBITDA by $3.3 million. Excluding the year-over-year impact of exchange rates, revenues would have increased $15.4 million and EBITDA would have increased $5.4 million. On a constant currency basis, the revenues increased due to $4.0 million in product revenue associated with the completion of a wastewater treatment plant, revenue associated with a pipeline related contract camp and the opening of our McClelland Lake facility. These items were partially offset by lower contracted rates and reduced occupancy at our lodges. EBITDA increased due to these items, as well as from lower selling, general and administrative expenses. SG&A expenses were lower year-over-year due to a $2.0 million refund of surplus medical premiums from our Canadian medical benefits provider based on lower experience ratings coupled with lower compensation expenses. RevPAR decreased 13% year-over-year to $112 in the third quarter of 2014, compared to $128 in the third quarter of 2013. The RevPAR decrease was attributable to declining foreign exchange rates and lower average daily rates.

Australia

The Australian segment generated revenues of $54.0 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $27.1 million for the third quarter of 2014 compared to revenues and EBITDA of $59.7 million and $33.4 million, respectively, in the third quarter of 2013. The revenue and EBITDA declines were primarily due to lower occupancy resulting from reduced customer commitments and lower overall customer activity and spending in the Bowen Basin, partially offset by contributions from the Boggabri Village which opened late in the third quarter of 2013. RevPAR decreased 11% year-over-year to $63 in the third quarter of 2014, compared to $71 in the third quarter of 2013. The RevPAR decrease was attributable to lower occupancy levels for the Australian villages.

U.S.

The U.S. segment generated revenues of $15.2 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $4.0 million for the third quarter of 2014 compared to revenues and EBITDA of $18.2 million and $2.1 million, respectively, in the third quarter of 2013. Despite lower revenue due to lower offshore fabrication sales, EBITDA from the U.S. segment was higher due to lower selling, general and administrative expense in 2014 compared to 2013 largely resulting from a recovery of previously reserved receivables.

INCOME TAXES

The Company recognized income tax expense of $9.0 million, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 21.6%, in the third quarter of 2014 compared to income tax expense of $11.4 million, and an effective tax rate of 22.2%, in the third quarter of 2013.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

The Company invested $66.6 million in capital expenditures during the third quarter of 2014. Spending primarily related to the ongoing expansion of the Canadian accommodations business, specifically the construction of the McClelland Lake Lodge. The Company currently expects to spend approximately $280 to $300 million in capital expenditures for the full year of 2014.

As of the end of the third quarter, the Company had total liquidity of approximately $885.2 million, comprised of $643.4 million available under its credit facilities and $241.8 million of cash on hand.

The Company announced today that its board of directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.13 per share of common stock, payable on December 2, 2014 to shareholders of record as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 17, 2014.

(1) The term EBITDA is defined as net income plus interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The term Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted to exclude impairment charges and certain other costs such as those incurred associated with the Spin-Off. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles and should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for net income or cash flow measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or as a measure of profitability or liquidity. Additionally, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The Company has included EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental disclosures because its management believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information regarding our ability to service debt and to fund capital expenditures and provides investors a helpful measure for comparing its operating performance with the performance of other companies that have different financing and capital structures or tax rates. The Company uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to compare and to monitor the performance of its business segments to other comparable public companies and as a benchmark for the award of incentive compensation under its annual incentive compensation plan.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net income, which is the most directly comparable measure of financial performance calculated under generally accepted accounting principles (in thousands) (unaudited):

(b) Relates to the impairment of certain fixed assets which are not in our custody, and for which return has been determined to be uncertain. The $2.6 million impairment ($2.2 million after-tax, or $0.02 per diluted share), which is related to our U.S. segment, is included in Impairment expense on the unaudited statements of income.

(c) Relates to severance costs associated with the termination of an executive. The $4.1 million expense ($3.4 million after-tax, or $0.03 per diluted share), which is related to our Canadian segment, is included in Selling, general and administrative expenses on the unaudited statements of income.

(d) Relates to transition costs incurred associated with becoming a stand-alone company. The $1.0 million and $3.5 million in costs ($0.8 million and $2.9 million after-tax, or $0.01 and $0.03 per diluted share, respectively), which are primarily corporate in nature, are included in Spin-off and formation costs on the unaudited statements of income.

(e) Relates to the reversal of an estimated earnout liability associated with a prior acquisition. The $4 million in income ($3.0 million after-tax, or $0.03 per diluted share), which is related to our U.S. segment is included in Other operating expense on the unaudited statements of income.
