Civeo Reports Second Quarter 2020 Results

HOUSTON & CALGARY, Alberta–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Civeo Corporation (NYSE:CVEO) today reported financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020.

Highlights include:

• Reported second quarter revenues of $114.7 million, net income of $6.1 million and operating cash flow of $24.5 million;

• Delivered second quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $28.1 million and free cash flow of $25.1 million; and

• Reduced leverage ratio to 2.34x as of June 30, 2020 from 2.54x as of March 31, 2020.

“I am pleased with the financial performance of the Company in the second quarter given this environment, but I am most proud of our team’s safety performance during this challenging time. Their efforts to keep each other and our guests safe and our locations open are a testament to Civeo’s core values. As we are all still working hard to navigate the COVID-19 pandemic, I want to once again thank our employees for their commitment and focus during this difficult time. I am proud of how our team has handled this pandemic and we have received extremely positive feedback from our customers and other stakeholders. We are continuing to closely monitor the COVID-19 situation and follow our stringent safety protocols,“ stated Bradley J. Dodson, Civeo’s President and Chief Executive Officer.

Mr. Dodson continued, “Civeo’s second quarter financial performance underscores 1) our team’s ability to execute quickly and respond to difficult market conditions; 2) our strong customer relationships and contracts; and 3) the benefits of the Company’s diversified geographic and commodity end-market footprint. While keeping our customers and guests safe, we were able to address our cost structure quickly in North America as occupancy and activity decreased swiftly in March and April. With a strong market position in Canada, we were able to capture the majority of the occupancy in our target markets, allowing us to generate positive operational contributions. Our differentiating exposure to the Australian natural resources industry also benefited the company as occupancy and profitability continued to improve in that region. The second quarter’s solid performance was highlighted by a 44% year-over-year increase in our Australian segment’s Adjusted EBITDA. In total, despite the significant decline in oil prices and related decline in Canadian occupancy, we continued to generate strong free cash flow and reduce our leverage ratio.”

Mr. Dodson concluded, “Looking forward, we expect occupancy in Canada to improve modestly in the second half of 2020 compared to the second quarter run rate, and we expect continued strength in our Australian operations. Overall our focus remains the same: continue to operate safely, maximize cash flow generation and reduce debt.”

Second Quarter 2020 Results

In the second quarter of 2020, Civeo generated revenues of $114.7 million and reported net income of $6.1 million (diluted net income of $5.3 million or $0.03 per diluted share). Net income includes $4.7 million of income ($4.7 million after-tax, or $0.03 per diluted share) associated with the settlement of a representations and warranties claim related to the Noralta acquisition. During the second quarter of 2020, Civeo produced operating cash flow of $24.5 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $28.1 million and free cash flow of $25.1 million. The second quarter of 2020 Adjusted EBITDA outperformed the second quarter of 2019 primarily due to increased occupancy in our Australian Bowen Basin villages, the contribution from the Action Catering acquisition and $6.2 million of other income related to proceeds from the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy (“CEWS”).

By comparison, in the second quarter of 2019, Civeo generated revenues of $122.2 million and reported a net loss of $15.3 million, or $0.09 per diluted share. The second quarter net loss included asset impairments in Australia totaling $5.5 million, or $0.03 per diluted share. During the second quarter of 2019, Civeo produced operating cash flow of $3.6 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $26.5 million.

(EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that is defined as net income plus interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted to exclude impairment charges, adjustments regarding an asset retirement obligation recorded in the second quarter of 2019 and proceeds from a representations and warranties claim related to a prior acquisition. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that is defined as net cash flows provided by operating activities less capital expenditures plus proceeds from asset sales. Please see the reconciliations to GAAP measures at the end of this news release.)

Business Segment Results

(Unless otherwise noted, the following discussion compares the quarterly results for the second quarter of 2020 to the results for the second quarter of 2019.)

Canada

During the second quarter of 2020, the Canadian segment generated revenues of $53.0 million, operating loss of $6.7 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $15.3 million, compared to revenues of $78.1 million, operating loss of $5.8 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $16.3 million in the second quarter of 2019. The second quarter of 2020 Adjusted EBITDA included $6.2 million of other income related to proceeds from the CEWS and a $1.7 million gain on sale of assets from the partial sale of assets from our Henday lodge.

On a constant currency basis, the Canadian segment experienced a 30% period-over-period decrease in revenues driven by a 45% year-over-year reduction in billed rooms related to decreased customer activity due to the decline in oil prices and the COVID-19 pandemic. Adjusted EBITDA for the Canadian segment decreased 19% year-over-year primarily due to lower billed rooms in the oil sands lodges, partially offset by the CEWS proceeds and a higher gain on sale of assets.

Australia

During the second quarter of 2020, the Australian segment generated revenues of $57.1 million, operating income of $8.2 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $18.8 million, compared to revenues of $31.0 million, operating loss of $5.6 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $13.0 million in the second quarter of 2019. The second quarter of 2020 results reflect the impact of a weakened Australian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar, which decreased revenues and Adjusted EBITDA by $2.2 million and $1.2 million, respectively.

On a constant currency basis, the Australian segment experienced a 96% period-over-period increase in revenues primarily driven by contributions from the acquisition of Action Catering coupled with increased occupancy at our Bowen Basin villages. Australian village occupancy increased 21% year-over-year largely due to continued improvement in metallurgical coal activity across the Bowen Basin. Adjusted EBITDA from the Australian segment increased 44% year-over-year due to higher village occupancy coupled with contributions from the acquisition of Action Catering. Australian revenues in the second quarter of 2020 increased more year-over-year than Australian Adjusted EBITDA due to the inherent lower margins in the service-only business model of Action Catering.

U.S.

The U.S. segment generated revenues of $4.6 million, operating loss of $2.6 million and negative Adjusted EBITDA of $1.4 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared to revenues of $13.1 million, operating loss of $1.4 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $2.6 million in the second quarter of 2019. Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA declined year-over-year primarily due to lower drilling and completion activity coupled with lower occupancy in the U.S. lodges.

Income Taxes

Civeo recognized an income tax expense of $0.1 million, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 2%, in the second quarter of 2020. During the second quarter of 2019, Civeo recognized an income tax benefit of $2.9 million, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 16%.

Financial Condition

As of June 30, 2020, Civeo had total liquidity of approximately $166.2 million, consisting of $158.9 million available under its revolving credit facilities and $7.3 million of cash on hand.

Civeo’s total debt outstanding on June 30, 2020 was $299.5 million, a $15.3 million decrease since March 31, 2020. The decrease consisted of $28.0 million in debt payments from cash flow generated by the business, partially offset by an unfavorable foreign currency translation impact of $12.7 million.

Civeo reduced its leverage ratio from 2.54x as of March 31, 2020 to 2.34x as of June 30, 2020.

During the second quarter of 2020, Civeo invested $1.2 million in capital expenditures, down from $11.5 million during the second quarter of 2019 due to the completion of the Sitka lodge expansion in 2019.

Full Year 2020 Guidance

Civeo is again providing full year 2020 revenue and EBITDA guidance. For the full year of 2020, Civeo expects revenues of $476 million to $486 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $80 million to $85 million. This guidance is based on our expectations as of the date hereof and assumes no material changes to the current macro environment, or conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic and the responses thereto. The Company is maintaining its full year 2020 capital expenditure guidance of approximately $15 million.

(1)		The term EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) attributable to Civeo Corporation plus interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The term Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted to exclude impairment charges, adjustments regarding an asset retirement obligation recorded in the second quarter of 2019 and proceeds from a representations and warranties claim related to a prior acquisition. 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. Civeo has included EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental disclosures because its management believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information regarding its ability to service debt and to fund capital expenditures and provide investors a helpful measure for comparing the Civeo’s operating performance with the performance of other companies that have different financing and capital structures or tax rates. Civeo 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 loss attributable to Civeo Corporation, which is the most directly comparable measure of financial performance calculated under generally accepted accounting principles (in thousands) (unaudited):

		(a)		Relates to asset impairments in the first quarter of 2020 and the second quarter of 2019. In the first quarter of 2020, we recorded a pre-tax loss related to the impairment of long-lived assets in our Canadian segment of $38.1 million ($38.1 million after-tax, or $0.23 per diluted share) and a pre-tax loss related to the impairment of long-lived assets in our U.S. segment of $12.4 million ($12.4 million after-tax, or $0.07 per diluted share), which is included in Impairment expense on the unaudited statements of operations.
				In the second quarter 2019, we recorded a pre-tax loss related to the impairment of assets in Australia of $5.5 million ($5.5 million after-tax, or $0.03 per diluted share), which is included in Impairment expense on the unaudited statements of operations. This includes $1.0 million of impairment expense related to an error corrected in the second quarter 2019. During the second quarter of 2019, we identified a future liability related to an asset retirement obligation (ARO) at one of our villages in Australia that should have been recorded in 2011. We determined that the error was not material to our previously issued financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, and therefore, corrected the error in the second quarter of 2019.
		(b)		Relates to the impairment of goodwill in the first quarter of 2020. The $93.6 million impairment ($93.6 million after-tax, or $0.56 per diluted share) is related to our Canada reporting unit and is included in Impairment expense on the statements of operations.
		(c)		As noted above, during the second quarter of 2019, we identified a future liability related to an ARO at one of our villages in Australia that should have been recorded in 2011. The correction included a $0.9 million ($0.9 million after-tax, or $0.01 per diluted share) adjustment, which is included in Cost of sales and services on the unaudited statements of operations. This amount represents the prior period impact of this correction.
		(d)		In the second quarter of 2020, we recorded $4.7 million of income ($4.7 million after-tax, or $0.03 per diluted share) associated with the settlement of a representations and warranties claim related to the Noralta acquisition, which is included in Other income on the unaudited statements of operations.
