Walter Energy Announces Third Quarter 2014 Results

30.10.2014  |  Marketwired

Metallurgical Coal Sales of 2.3 Million Metric Tons

Metallurgical Coal Cash Cost of Sales per Metric Ton Improved 18.7%

Liquidity Totaled $624 Million

Full-Year 2014 Capital Spending Target Reduced to $110 Million

Full-Year Cash Cost of Sales Target for Alabama Underground Mines Reduced to $96 per Metric Ton

BIRMINGHAM, AL--(Marketwired - Oct 30, 2014) - Walter Energy Inc. (NYSE: WLT), a leading, publicly traded "pure-play" producer of metallurgical ("met") coal for the global steel industry, today announced results for the quarter ended September 30, 2014.

"In the challenging pricing environment for met coal, we remain focused on lowering production costs, reducing SG&A and improving productivity," said Walt Scheller, Chief Executive Officer. "We have also idled assets that aren't generating cash, and we're reducing inventory across the Company. We expect our operating and financial results to reflect these actions going forward, making us more competitive and positioning us well for a recovery in met coal pricing."

Consolidated Financial Results

Walter Energy reported a net loss of $98.9 million, or $1.48 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2014 compared with a net loss of $100.7 million, or $1.61 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2013. Adjusted net loss for the quarter, which excludes certain unusual items, was $105.8 million, or $1.58 per diluted share as compared with an adjusted net loss for the prior-year period of $102.3 million, or $1.63 per diluted share. A reconciliation of net loss to adjusted net loss is provided in the Company's "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" included with this release.

Third quarter 2014 consolidated revenues totaled $329.5 million, compared with $455.8 million in the third quarter of 2013, reflecting a decrease in average met coal selling prices of $22.57 per metric ton ("MT") and a decline in met coal sales of 0.5 million metric tons ("MMTs"). Third quarter results also reflected a reduction in met coal cash cost of sales of $22.04 per ton and a 24% reduction in selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses.

As previously disclosed, the Company idled its remaining Canadian mining operations in the second quarter of 2014. Costs incurred in the third quarter related to the idled mining operations totaled $9.4 million, representing idle mine costs of $8.2 million and transportation take-or-pay charges of $1.2 million, all of which are recorded in cost of sales. Results for the quarter also include a net benefit of $2.4 million resulting from a revision in the estimate of severance costs. The Company expects the idle mine costs to trend down going forward.

In August 2014, the Company issued 2.25 million shares of common stock in exchange for $25.0 million principal amount of the Company's 9.875% Senior Notes due 2020 resulting in a net gain of $9.9 million. This debt retirement will reduce annual interest expense by approximately $2.5 million. Results for the quarter also included $6.5 million of accelerated amortization of debt issuance costs associated with the Eighth Amendment to the 2011 Credit Agreement which was executed during the quarter.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") for the quarter was $8.4 million, and adjusted EBITDA was $0.2 million, compared with EBITDA of $23.6 million and adjusted EBITDA of $21.3 million for the third quarter 2013. A reconciliation of net loss to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA is provided in the Company's "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" included with this release.

Metallurgical Coal Sales Volume and Pricing

Third quarter 2014 met coal sales volumes, including both hard coking coal ("HCC") and low-volatility ("low-vol") pulverized coal injection product ("PCI"), was 2.3 MMTs compared with 2.8 MMTs in the prior-year comparable quarter. The decline in met coal sales volumes was due to lower sales volumes from the Canadian mining operations.

HCC sales volumes totaled 2.0 MMTs compared with 2.3 MMTs in 2013. The average selling price for HCC was $110.42 per MT, down from $133.72 per MT in the third quarter of 2013.

Low-vol PCI sales volume totaled 0.3 MMTs, down 0.2 MMTs from the prior-year comparable quarter. The selling price for low-vol PCI averaged $102.85 per MT compared with $121.76 per MT in 2013.

Metallurgical Coal Cash Cost of Sales

Met coal cash cost of sales for the third quarter of 2014 averaged $95.91 per MT, down $22.04, or 18.7%, compared with the third quarter of 2013, driven primarily by continued improvement in mining costs.

Metallurgical Coal Production

Met coal production was 2.0 MMTs in the quarter, compared with 2.8 MMTs in the prior-year period, with the decrease primarily resulting from the idling of the Canadian mining operations in the current year. Met coal production in Canada for the prior-year quarter totaled 0.7 MMTs.

Met coal cash cost of production averaged $66.90 per MT, down from $77.56 per MT in the prior-year comparable quarter.

Other Expenses

SG&A expenses totaled $16.6 million, compared with $21.9 million in the prior year quarter.

Income Taxes

The Company recognized an income tax benefit of $30.3 million in the third quarter compared with a tax benefit of $17.0 million in the prior-year period. The prior-year period includes charges related to a statutory tax rate increase enacted by British Columbia and a charge recorded to reflect the loss of tax attributes due to the restructuring of the Company's West Virginia operations. The income tax benefit for the current period excludes the tax effect of U.S. operating losses, as there currently is not adequate evidence that such benefit would be realized.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures in the quarter totaled $26.3 million, compared with $28.5 million in the prior-year period, which reflects the Company's continued focus on disciplined spending in light of ongoing weak market conditions. The Company has reduced its full-year 2014 capital spending target to approximately $110 million from $120 million.

Liquidity

Available liquidity was $623.9 million at the end of the quarter, consisting of cash and cash equivalents of $614.6 million plus $9.3 million in availability under the Company's $76.9 million revolving credit facilities, net of outstanding letters of credit of $67.6 million.

On July 14, 2014, the Company issued $320 million in principal amount of 9.5% senior secured notes. As a result, cash and cash equivalents increased and overall liquidity improved. The Company has no significant debt maturities until 2018.

Outlook

The Company expects full-year 2014 met coal production of approximately 9.5 MMTs, within the range previously provided by the Company. Cash cost of sales per ton for the Company's Alabama underground mines is expected to average approximately $96 per MT for the full year, down from the Company's previous target of approximately $100 per MT.

Full-year 2014 met coal sales volumes are expected to total approximately 10.0 MMTs, within the previously provided range.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the results prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") provided throughout this release, the Company has presented the following non-GAAP financial measures: EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net loss and Average Cash Cost of Sales per Ton. These non-GAAP financial measures are provided as supplemental information for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

(1) Average Cash Cost of Sales per Ton is based on reported Cost of Sales and includes items such as freight, royalties, manpower, fuel and other similar production and sales cost items but excludes depreciation, depletion, postretirement benefits, idle mine costs and transportation take-or-pay charges. Average Cash Cost of Production per Ton is based on period costs of mining and includes items such as manpower, fuel and other similar production items but excludes depreciation, depletion, postretirement benefits, idle mine costs and transportation take-or-pay charges. Average Cash Cost of Sales per Ton is a non-GAAP financial measure which is not calculated in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute or superior to financial measures calculated in conformity with GAAP. We believe Average Cash Cost of Sales per Ton is a useful measure of performance and we believe it aids some investors and analysts in comparing us against other companies to help analyze our current and future potential performance. Average Cash Cost of Sales per Ton may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

(1) EBITDA is defined as net loss before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, and depreciation and depletion expense. EBITDA is a financial measure which is not calculated in conformity with GAAP and should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute or superior to financial measures calculated in conformity with GAAP. We believe that EBITDA is a useful measure as some investors and analysts use EBITDA to compare us against other companies and to help analyze our ability to satisfy principal and interest obligations and capital expenditure needs. EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
(2) Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to exclude restructuring and asset impairment charges, (gain) loss on interest rate swap hedge ineffectiveness, gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt, Canada transportation take-or-pay charges and other items including proxy contest expenses and foreign currency adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance in accordance with GAAP, and we believe items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant to a reader in understanding and assessing our financial condition. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation, nor as an alternative to net income, income from operations, cash flows from operations or as a measure of our profitability, liquidity or performance under GAAP. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA presents a useful measure of our ability to incur and service debt based on ongoing operations. Furthermore, analogous measures are used by industry analysts to evaluate our operating performance. Investors should be aware that our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
(3) Adjusted net loss is defined as net loss net of restructuring and asset impairment charges, (gain) loss on interest rate swap hedge ineffectiveness, gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt, Canada transportation take-or-pay charges, and other items including proxy contest expenses and foreign currency adjustments, net of tax. Adjusted net loss is not a measure of financial performance in accordance with GAAP, and we believe items excluded from Adjusted net loss are significant to a reader in understanding and assessing our results of operations. Therefore, Adjusted net loss should not be considered in isolation, nor as an alternative to net loss under GAAP.
