Enviva Partners, LP Reports Financial Results for Third Quarter 2015

 

BETHESDA, MD, November 5, 2015 — Enviva Partners, LP (NYSE: EVA) (the “Partnership” or “we”) today reported financial and operating results for the third quarter of 2015.

 

Highlights for the Quarter:

 

·                  Generated adjusted EBITDA of $15.9 million on net income of $6.4 million, both in-line with guidance

·                  Increased quarterly cash distribution by approximately 7% to $0.4400 per unit

·                  Maintained strong balance sheet with $75.2 million of cash for future growth

·                  Acquisition of Southampton plant still expected in fourth quarter of 2015

 

“Enviva’s solid third quarter 2015 operating performance delivered financial results at the top end of our expectations,” said John Keppler, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.  “Our stable cash flow profile and our leadership position in a high-growth industry continues to differentiate Enviva from the broader MLP sector, as highlighted by our ability to significantly increase our distribution.”

 

Third Quarter Results

 

For the third quarter of 2015, we generated net revenue of $116.6 million, a $40.5 million, or 53 percent, increase over the corresponding quarter of last year.  For the third quarter, we generated net income of $6.4 million compared to $3.1 million for the corresponding quarter in 2014.   The increase in revenue was primarily the result of additional contracted sales volume and improved customer mix.  The increase in net income was a result of these higher revenues partially offset by higher general and administrative costs, including costs associated with being a public company.

 

Adjusted EBITDA improved to $15.9 million in the third quarter of 2015, a 59 percent increase compared to the corresponding period in 2014.  The improvement was driven by higher sales volumes, more favorable pricing under our customer contracts, and lower export shipping costs, and was partially offset by the increased costs of delivered wood pellets that were purchased under contract from our sponsor’s Southampton plant this year and higher general and administrative costs.

 

The Partnership’s distributable cash flow for the third quarter was $12.6 million, resulting in a distribution coverage ratio of 1.21 times.

 

Liquidity and Financial Position

 

The Partnership had total cash on hand of $75.2 million at September 30, 2015, which is available for general partnership purposes, including potential acquisitions.

 



 

Distribution

 

As announced last week, the board of directors of the Partnership’s general partner (the “Board”) declared a cash distribution of $0.4400 per common and subordinated unit for the third quarter of 2015.  For the second quarter of 2015, the Partnership paid a prorated amount of the minimum quarterly distribution of $0.4125 per unit as its first distribution following the closing of its initial public offering.  The distribution for the third quarter is approximately 7 percent higher than the minimum quarterly distribution.  The quarterly distribution will be paid Friday, November 27, 2015, to unitholders of record as of the close of business Tuesday, November 17, 2015.

 

Outlook and Guidance

 

The guidance amounts provided below do not include the impact of any potential acquisitions from the Partnership’s sponsor or others.  Consistent with previous guidance, the Partnership expects its existing business to generate net income in the range of $5.6 million to $6.6 million and adjusted EBITDA in the range of $14.8 million to $15.8 million, and to incur maintenance capital expenditures in the range of $0.5 million to $1.0 million and interest expense net of amortization of debt issuance costs and original issue discount of $2.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2015.  As a result, the Partnership expects to generate distributable cash flow of $11.3 million to $12.3 million during the fourth quarter of 2015.  Consistent with our prior guidance for the second half of 2015, fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA is expected to be slightly below the run rate of prior quarters primarily due to an unfavorable contracted shipment (one of two) inherited as part of the Cottondale plant acquisition, partially offset by a non-recurring utility refund.

 

Mr. Keppler commented, “We expect Enviva’s strong year-to-date operating performance to continue in the fourth quarter of 2015 and beyond.  We believe our stable cash flow profile, combined with the anticipated acquisition of the proposed Southampton plant and the benefits from incremental, modest capital investments in our current plants, will provide opportunities to substantially increase our distribution going forward.”

 

Sponsor Activity

 

The Partnership continues to progress the potential acquisition of the fully operational 510,000 metric tons per year (“MTPY”) wood pellet production plant in Southampton County, Virginia (the “Southampton plant”) currently owned and operated by the Partnership’s sponsor.  The sponsor has made a proposal to the Partnership regarding the potential acquisition by the Partnership of the Southampton plant, together with a ten-year, 500,000 MTPY off-take agreement (385,000 metric tons for the first year), which is being evaluated by a Conflicts Committee formed by the Board due to the related party nature of the proposed transaction.  We continue to discuss the terms, including financing of the proposed transaction, and expect to complete the transaction in the fourth quarter of 2015.

 

In addition, the sponsor’s 515,000 MTPY production plant in Sampson County, North Carolina (the “Sampson plant”) and a deep-water marine terminal in Wilmington, North Carolina (the “Wilmington terminal”) are both on track to begin operations in the first quarter of 2016.  The Partnership expects to have the opportunity to acquire the Sampson plant with a ten-year off-take contract in late 2016 and the Wilmington terminal in 2017. Finally, the sponsor continues to

prepare for the construction of an additional 500,000 MTPY production plant on a site it owns in Hamlet, North Carolina.

 

Market Update

 

Major European power generators continue to make the economic decision to fuel generation with wood pellets, highlighting strong growth in this industry:

 

·                  DONG Energy’s coal-to-wood pellet conversion of its 360 megawatt (“MW”) Studstrup unit 3 and expansion of its 250 MW Avedore unit 1 are on track.  The Avedore unit is part of the largest power station in Denmark and its other unit is already firing wood pellets and straw. Combined additional annual wood pellet demand from these two power stations is projected to be around 1 million tons starting in 2016.  Our sponsor has a ten-year, 420,000 MTPY (385,000 metric tons for the first year) off-take agreement with an affiliate of DONG Energy that commences in September 2016.

 

·                  E.ON announced the sale of its 556 MW Langerlo power facility in Belgium, which the buyer intends to convert to a wood pellet-fueled power station that is expected to commence operations in 2017.  When fully operational, this facility is projected to require more than 1.5 million tons of wood pellets annually.

 

·                  Macquarie’s MGT Teesside 299 MW Renewable Energy Plant project has initiated the selection of lenders as it continues to progress towards financial close in early 2016 after its U.K. government-backed contract for difference (“CfD”) passed the EU state-aid review process.  This project is expected to consume more than 1 million tons of wood pellets annually, commencing in early 2019.

 

·                  Drax’s third 660 MW biomass unit is operational and ramping up toward full capacity when it is expected to demand more than 2 million tons of wood pellets annually.  Also in the U.K., RWE’s 420 MW Lynemouth coal facility is expected to generate demand for approximately 1.5 million tons of wood pellets annually.  Both facilities have received confirmation from the U.K. government that they can move forward with their planned conversions to biomass under the Renewable Obligation Certificate (“ROC”) subsidy as an alternative to their previously awarded CfDs if the CfDs do not receive EU state aid approval.

 

At the country level, in the Netherlands, the Minister of Economic Affairs stated in a letter to Parliament his intention to significantly increase the budget for the renewable incentive scheme from 3.5 billion euros in 2015 to 8.0 billion euros in 2016, consistent with a report from the Dutch Court of Audit that the scheme budget needed to be increased in order to meet binding EU renewables targets.  The final budget is expected to be confirmed before the end of 2015.

 

In the U.S., the Environmental Protection Administration (“EPA”) published the final Clean Power Plan in the Federal Register.  This regulatory action is one of the keystones of the current administration’s climate change initiative and, with this announcement, the EPA will begin accepting comments on its proposed “Model Rule” which is intended to provide states with a road map for developing their plans, including use of biomass, to meet the aggressive CO2 emissions reductions and renewable energy targets. Although a series of expected lawsuits have

 

3



 

been filed against the EPA’s action, states are still expected to submit their plans by September 2016.

 

“Customers in our core European utility market segment continue to see profitable opportunities to generate renewable energy by converting coal-fired assets to biomass-fired power stations,” said Mr. Keppler.  “In addition to the highly visible growth in this sector, we are also encouraged by the initial regulatory progress for utility demand in the U.S. and the rapidly growing institutional, industrial, and residential heating demand for wood pellets both here and abroad, which our production increasingly has the opportunity to serve.”

 

Investor Conference

 

Management will be participating in the 2015 RBC Capital Markets’ MLP Conference in Dallas, Texas on November 19, 2015.

 

Conference Call

 

The Partnership will host a conference call with executive management related to its third quarter 2015 results and to discuss our outlook, guidance, market update, and update on our sponsor’s activities at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) on Thursday, November 5, 2015.  Information on how interested parties may listen to the conference call is available in the Investor Relations page of our website (www.envivabiomass.com).  A replay of the conference call will be available on our website after the live call concludes.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

We view adjusted gross margin per metric ton, adjusted EBITDA, and distributable cash flow as important indicators of performance.

 

Adjusted Gross Margin per Metric Ton

 

We define adjusted gross margin as gross margin excluding depreciation and amortization included in cost of goods sold. We believe adjusted gross margin per metric ton is a meaningful measure because it compares our off-take pricing to our operating costs for a view of profitability and performance on a per metric ton basis. Adjusted gross margin per metric ton will primarily be affected by our ability to meet targeted production volumes and to control direct and indirect costs associated with procurement and delivery of wood fiber to our production plants and the production and distribution of wood pellets.

 

Adjusted EBITDA

 

We define adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss excluding depreciation and amortization, interest expense, taxes, early retirement of debt obligation, non-cash unit compensation expense, asset impairments and disposals, and certain items of income or loss that we characterize as unrepresentative of our operations. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure used by our management and other users of our financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks, and research analysts, to assess the financial performance of our assets without regard to financing methods or capital structure.

 

Distributable Cash Flow

 

We define distributable cash flow as adjusted EBITDA less maintenance capital expenditures and interest expense net of amortization of debt issuance costs and original issue discount. Distributable cash flow is used as a supplemental measure by our management and other users of our financial statements as it provides important information relating to the relationship between our financial operating performance and our ability to make cash distributions.

 

Adjusted gross margin per metric ton, adjusted EBITDA, and distributable cash flow are not financial measures presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. Our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Each of these non-GAAP financial measures has important limitations as an analytical tool because they exclude some, but not all, items that affect the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. You should not consider adjusted gross margin per metric ton, adjusted EBITDA, or distributable cash flow in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.  Our definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.
