Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2018 Results

 

Fourth Quarter Results

 

·                  International Telecom Operations Showed Positive  Comparisons in Key Markets

·                  U.S. Telecom Comparisons Reflected Continued Effect of Lower Wholesale Revenue and Impact of Asset Sale, Expiration of certain Federal Subsidies, and Early Stage Business Expenses

 

Cash Flow from Operating Activities was $116 Million for Full Year 2018

 

Beverly, MA (February 20, 2019) — ATN International, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATNI) today reported results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2018.

 

Business Review and Outlook

 

“Results for the fourth quarter were mixed, with our International Telecom operations performing well, and our U.S. Telecom operations managing through difficult market conditions,” noted Michael Prior, Chief Executive Officer.

 

“Our International Telecom segment experienced strong revenue and Adjusted EBITDA[1] growth, reflecting market share gains and progress in achieving operating efficiencies, and the slow but steady recovery of our U.S. Virgin Islands business following the 2017 hurricanes. Investments in network upgrades and fiber to the home programs have improved our subscriber metrics and revenue and strengthened our competitive position in key markets heading into 2019.

 

“As anticipated, the decline in fourth quarter Adjusted EBITDA[1] for our U.S. Telecom segment from last year was more pronounced than in prior periods, with close to one-half of the reduction due to the sale of 100 wholesale sites, the end of FCC Mobility Fund I program subsidies, and higher expenses relating to our

 


 

early stage business investments. The other factor causing the year-on-year Adjusted EBITDA[1] decline was a further decrease in wholesale wireless revenue, which has led to lower segment margins over the last several quarters. In 2018, we reduced our domestic capital expenditures by 40% to improve returns, and we continue to discuss additional ways to utilize our network and operational capabilities with our large carrier customers. In October 2018, we were notified that we were awarded $80 million in funding over the next 10 years as part of the Connect America Fund II program to bring fixed wireless broadband and voice services to rural areas in the U.S. in or around our existing mobile network operating footprint.  We expect this funding to begin to benefit our U.S. Telecom segment results starting in the second half of this year.

 

“While 2018 brought challenges for ATN, there were several accomplishments worth noting. We succeeded in producing a consolidated adjusted EBITDA margin(2) of 28% for the full year despite the headwinds of re-building our network in the USVI and of adapting to lower returns in our domestic wireless business; we produced higher year-on-year  revenue and expanded margins in all of our major International Telecom businesses, and completed multiple major network builds in those markets;  we made  two early stage greenfield infrastructure investments, that we believe offer significant growth potential; and, we completed an opportunistic sale of our U.S. solar operations, that enabled us to capture an attractive return on an investment we made four years earlier.  Looking ahead, our priorities for 2019 include generating momentum behind one or more of our U.S. Telecom growth initiatives, accelerating the business recovery in the US Virgin Islands, and delivering an increase in total cash flow from our International Telecom segment,” Mr. Prior concluded.

 

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2018 Financial Results

 

Fourth quarter 2018 revenues of $107.8 million were similar to 2017 levels of $107.7 million.  The $11.1 million or 17% increase in International Telecom revenues offset a $10.0 million or 29% decline in U.S. Telecom revenues, of which approximately 60% of the decline was due to lower wholesale roaming traffic and the remaining 40% reflects several transactional items that were not comparable on a year-on-year basis.  Adjusted EBITDA(1) for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $23.4 million, or 24% below the prior year period, primarily due to the revenue declines in the U.S. Telecom segment. Operating income for the fourth quarter was $10.3 million, which included a net gain of $10.9 million mostly from the sale of the Company’s U.S. solar portfolio. In last year’s fourth quarter, operating income was $41.5 million, inclusive of the net benefit of $32.6 million in insurance recoveries from the 2017 hurricanes in the U.S. Virgin Islands.  Net income attributable to ATN’s stockholders for the fourth quarter was $1.1 million, or $0.07 per diluted share compared with the prior year period’s $43.5 million or $2.71 per diluted share.

 

Revenues for the full year 2018 were $451.2 million, 6% below the $481.2 million reported for the full year 2017.   Adjusted EBITDA(1) for the full year 2018 was $124.2 million, a decrease of 16% from the prior year.  Operating income for the full year 2018 was $61.0 million, which included $26.4 million in net gains on the sales of certain wholesale wireless assets in the U.S. and the Company’s U.S. solar portfolio. In 2017, operating income was $55.3 million, which included $4.0 million of net losses from damaged assets and other hurricane-related charges, net of insurance recovery.  Net income attributable to ATN stockholders for the full year 2018 was $19.8 million or $1.24 per diluted share, compared with the prior year’s $31.5 million or $1.94 per diluted share.

U.S. Telecom

 

U.S. Telecom revenues consist mainly of wireless revenues from our voice and data wholesale roaming operations and our smaller retail operations in the Southwestern United States, as well as enterprise and wholesale wireline revenues.  The decline in U.S. Telecom segment revenues reflected a 29% revenue decline in U.S. wireless revenues to $23.1 million, primarily due to the lower wholesale roaming traffic, and the completion of the sale of approximately 100 wholesale wireless cell sites early in the third quarter of 2018.  In addition to these factors, the decline in U.S. Telecom Adjusted EBITDA[1]  was due to the completion of our Mobility Fund I program obligation and cessation of the related expense offsets and the additional operating costs related to early stage business investments made in 2018.

 

International Telecom

 

International Telecom consists of a broad range of information and communications services including wireline and wireless data, internet, voice and video service revenues from our operations in Bermuda and the Caribbean.  International Telecom revenues increased 17% year-on-year mainly due to broadband and wireless revenues increases in several of our businesses.  This includes the U.S. Virgin Islands, where we continued to recover from the 2017 hurricanes.  While we expect continued sequential revenue improvement in 2019, exclusive of the additional non-recurring FCC support received in 2018, the level of damage to the U.S. Virgin Islands economy, coupled with losses due to accelerated “cord cutting” and alternative offerings, may impact our ability to fully return to pre-storm levels in that market.  During 2018, we made substantial investments in re-building our USVI network with expanded resiliency and capabilities. International Telecom Adjusted EBITDA(1) increased 23% primarily as a result of higher revenues in several of our markets alongside improving cost containment.

Renewable Energy

 

Renewable Energy segment revenues are principally the result of the generation and sale of energy and solar renewable energy credits from our commercial solar projects in India, and the United States.  During the fourth quarter of 2018, ATN completed the sale of its United States portfolio of solar projects, which produced a gain on sale of $12.5 million. As a result, the operating results of these projects are reflected only through November 8, 2018, which caused the year-on-year declines in revenues and Adjusted EBITDA(1). Year-on-year revenue and Adjusted EBITDA[1]  comparisons for this segment will be negative for most of 2019 as a result of this transaction.

 

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights

 

Total cash at December 31, 2018 was $192.9 million.  Additionally, the Company ended the fourth quarter with $0.4 million in short-term investments.  Net cash provided by operating activities was $115.9 million for the full year 2018, compared with $145.7 million for the prior year period.  The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to lower Adjusted EBITDA[1] in the U.S. Telecom segment partially offset by increases in the International Telecom segment.  For full year 2018, the Company used net cash of $142.6 million for investing and financing activities.  This included $80.2 million of capital expenditures for network repairs and resiliency enhancements to the network following the 2017 hurricanes in the U.S. Virgin Islands which were partially offset by $34.6 million of insurance proceeds, $105.8 million in other capital expenditures and $18.8 million in partner distributions.   Partially offsetting these expenditures was the $48.3 million of net proceeds (excluding escrow amounts) from the sale of solar assets in the United States.  Management currently estimates International Telecom capital expenditures will be between $50.0 million to $55.0 million in 2019, and approximately $100.0 million lower than 2018.  In the U.S. Telecom segment, we expect capital expenditures to be similar to 2018 levels excluding new initiatives and early stage business spending.
