HOUSTON & CALGARY, Alberta--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Civeo Corporation (NYSE:CVEO) today reported financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021.

Highlights include:

• Reported second quarter revenues of $154.2 million, a net loss of $0.5 million and operating cash flow of $16.5 million;
• Delivered second quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $32.2 million and free cash flow of $13.7 million; and
• Reduced total debt to $226.8 million as of June 30, 2021 from $238.1 million as of March 31, 2021.

�In the second quarter of 2021, we once again stuck to our objectives of operating safely, generating free cash flow and reducing our debt balance. The second quarter marks our eighth consecutive quarter of debt and leverage ratio reduction," stated Bradley J. Dodson, Civeo's President and Chief Executive Officer.

Mr. Dodson concluded, "In Canada, we are encouraged and thankful for the rapid decline of COVID-19 cases after the strong third wave occurred in April, and as a result, customer activity in the Canadian oil sands and pipeline work continued to strengthen. In Australia, Civeo and its customers continue to deal with labor supply issues and subdued activity due to COVID-19 travel restrictions and the lingering China/Australia trade dispute, but we continue to view these issues as transitory. Australia has been more successful in finding demand for its met coal exports, and Australian met coal is now trading above $200/tonne, an increase of almost 100% since the first quarter of 2021."

Second Quarter 2021 Results

In the second quarter of 2021, Civeo generated revenues of $154.2 million and reported a net loss of $0.5 million, or $0.03 per diluted share. The loss results in part from $7.9 million in costs associated with asset impairments on properties in Australia. During the second quarter of 2021, Civeo produced operating cash flow of $16.5 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $32.2 million and free cash flow of $13.7 million.

By comparison, in the second quarter of 2020, Civeo generated revenues of $114.7 million and reported net income of $6.1 million, or $0.37 per diluted share. Net income included $4.7 million of income 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.

Overall, the increase in revenues and Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of 2021 compared to 2020 was primarily due to a significant increase in billed rooms in the oil sands lodges and Canadian mobile camp activity, partially offset by $6.2 million of other income in 2020 related to proceeds from the Canadian Emergency Wage Subsidy ("CEWS") program and increased labor costs in our Australian business during the second quarter of 2021.

(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 and proceeds from the settlement of a representation 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.

Business Segment Results

(Unless otherwise noted, the following discussion compares the quarterly results for the second quarter of 2021 to the results for the second quarter of 2020.)

Canada

During the second quarter of 2021, the Canadian segment generated revenues of $83.3 million, operating income of $7.5 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $22.6 million, compared to revenues of $53.0 million, operating loss of $6.7 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $15.3 million in the second quarter of 2020. Operating income and Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2021 included $0.7 million of other income related to proceeds from CEWS. The second quarter of 2020 Adjusted EBITDA included $6.2 million of other income related to proceeds from CEWS and a $1.7 million gain on sale of assets from the partial sale of assets from our Henday lodge. Results from the second quarter of 2021 reflect the impact of a strengthened Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar, which increased revenues and Adjusted EBITDA by $9.6 million and $2.7 million, respectively.

On a constant currency basis, the Canadian segment experienced a 39% period-over-period increase in revenues driven by a 76% year-over-year increase in billed rooms, primarily in the oil sands lodges, related to increased customer activity as a result of the recovery of oil prices from the impact of COVID-19. Adjusted EBITDA for the Canadian segment increased 48% year-over-year primarily due to the increase in billed rooms coupled with increased mobile camp activity, partially offset by decreased billed rooms at Sitka lodge due to British Columbia's health order protocol.

Australia

During the second quarter of 2021, the Australian segment generated revenues of $64.0 million, operating loss of $2.7 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $15.4 million, compared to revenues of $57.1 million, operating income of $8.2 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $18.8 million in the second quarter of 2020. Results from the second quarter of 2021 reflect the impact of a strengthened Australian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar, which increased revenues and Adjusted EBITDA by $9.4 million and $2.3 million, respectively. Operating loss for the second quarter of 2021 includes asset impairment charges of $7.9 million.

On a constant currency basis, the Australian segment experienced modestly lower period-over-period revenues, driven by a 7% year-over-year decrease in billed rooms due to subdued customer spending in the Bowen Basin. Adjusted EBITDA from the Australian segment decreased 18% year-over-year due to lower village occupancy in the Bowen Basin, as well as higher labor costs in the Integrated Services business.

U.S.

The U.S. segment generated revenues of $6.9 million, operating loss of $1.1 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2021, compared to 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. Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA increased year-over-year primarily due to increased offshore fabrication activity coupled with higher occupancy in the U.S. lodges.

Financial Condition

As of June 30, 2021, Civeo had total liquidity of approximately $116.5 million, consisting of $112.1 million available under its revolving credit facilities and $4.4 million of cash on hand.

Civeo�s total debt outstanding on June 30, 2021 was $226.8 million, an $11.2 million decrease since March 31, 2021. The decrease consisted of $14.4 million in debt payments from cash flow generated by the business, partially offset by an unfavorable foreign currency translation of $3.2 million.

Civeo reduced its leverage ratio to 2.0x as of June 30, 2021 from 2.1x as of March 31, 2021.

During the second quarter of 2021, Civeo invested $3.2 million in capital expenditures, up from $1.2 million during the second quarter of 2020.

Full Year 2021 Guidance

For the full year of 2021, Civeo is maintaining its revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance range of $555 million to $580 million and $90 million to $100 million, respectively. This guidance is based on our expectations as of today and assumes no material changes to the current macro environment, or conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
