Team, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2016 Results

SUGAR LAND, Texas, Nov. 01, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Team, Inc. (NYSE: TISI ) (“Team” or the “Company”) today released financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2016. Team reported a net loss of $4.2 million ($0.14 loss per diluted share) for the current year quarter versus net income of $2.5 million ($0.12 earnings per diluted share) for the prior year quarter. Excluding certain non-routine items, adjusted net loss was $0.4 million ($0.01 adjusted loss per diluted share) for the current quarter versus adjusted net income of $5.1 million ($0.24 adjusted earnings per diluted share) for the prior year quarter. Revenues for the current quarter increased by 19% to $289.6 million compared to revenues of $243.6 million for the prior year quarter due primarily to the Furmanite acquisition. Adjusted net income (loss) excludes certain non-routine items that are not indicative of Team’s ongoing operating activities of $3.8 million (net of tax), or $0.13 per diluted share, for the current year quarter and $2.6 million (net of tax), or $0.12 per diluted share, for the prior year quarter, as detailed in the accompanying schedule.

Year-to-date revenues were $876.9 million, a 31% increase compared to revenues of $671.4 million for the prior year period. Net loss was $3.3 million ($0.12 loss per diluted share) compared to net income of $19.8 million ($0.92 earnings per diluted share) for the prior year. Year-to-date adjusted net income was $10.4 million ($0.38 adjusted earnings per diluted share), versus adjusted net income of $27.3 million ($1.27 adjusted earnings per diluted share) for the prior year. Adjusted net income excludes non-routine items of $13.7 million (net of tax), or $0.50 per diluted share, for the current year period and $7.5 million (net of tax), or $0.35 per diluted share in the prior year period, as detailed in the accompanying schedule.

“We continued to face market headwinds during the third quarter of 2016, which includes two of our seasonally weakest months of the year—July and August. Those two months were unusually soft this year, as we continued to experience headwinds from project deferrals, scope reductions and maintenance deferrals, coupled with the adverse impact on business of severe flooding in Louisiana. However, activity levels picked up sharply in the month of September. In fact, September was our strongest month of the year,” said Ted Owen, Team’s President and CEO. “Our strong finish to the quarter, and indeed our activity levels through the first month of the fourth quarter, gives us encouragement that we are seeing the first signs of more normalized market activity.”

“As importantly, with the increased activity levels in September, we have begun to see incremental improvements in profitability as our business integration initiatives gain traction. We are on track to complete our major ERP implementation in North America by the end of 2017 and we continue to make excellent progress toward the achievement of targeted merger-related synergies pertaining to the Qualspec and Furmanite acquisitions,” said Mr. Owen. “I couldn’t be more proud of the exceptional customer-focused company we are building across our three business units—TeamQualspec, TeamFurmanite, and Quest Integrity Group. We remain confident in our future, our market positioning and our goal to build the world’s premier industrial services company.”

GAAP Earnings and Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain non-routine items that management believes are not indicative of Team’s ongoing operating activities have been excluded from net income (loss) reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) when arriving at adjusted net income (loss), a non-GAAP financial measure. In the current quarter, the most significant non-routine items pertained to legal fees and professional fees for acquisition integration ($3.5 million) and non-capitalized ERP implementation costs ($2.3 million).

In the year-to-date period, the most significant non-routine items pertained to acquisition costs, which were primarily associated with the Furmanite transaction ($7.4 million), legal fees and professional fees for acquisition integration and changing the fiscal year end ($7.3 million), non-capitalized ERP implementation costs ($4.8 million) and the loss on the revaluation of contingent consideration ($2.2 million). Costs associated with the Furmanite transaction include $5.2 million incurred by the legacy Furmanite business primarily associated with change of control and severance payments.

A reconciliation of net income (loss) reported in accordance with GAAP to adjusted net income (loss) is contained in the accompanying schedule.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release presents information about the Company’s adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted net income (loss) per share, and the Company sometimes uses adjusted EBITDA, EBIT and adjusted EBIT, which are non-GAAP financial measures provided as supplemental to the results provided in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of each of the foregoing historical non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable historical GAAP financial measure is provided below for each of the fiscal periods indicated.

TEAM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)

The Company uses supplemental non-GAAP financial measures which are derived from the consolidated financial information including adjusted net income (loss); adjusted net income (loss) per share, earnings before interest and taxes (“EBIT”); adjusted EBIT; and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“adjusted EBITDA”) to supplement financial information presented on a GAAP basis. Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted net income (loss) per share, each as defined by the Company, exclude the following items from net income (loss): acquisition costs associated with business combinations, non-routine legal costs, professional fees for acquired business integration and changing our fiscal year end, losses on the revaluation of contingent consideration, non-capitalized ERP implementation costs, losses on our investment in Venezuela, certain other non-routine items and the related income tax impacts. EBIT, as defined by the Company, excludes discontinued operations, income tax expense, interest charges and items of other (income) expense and therefore is equal to operating income reported in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBIT further excludes the following items: acquisition costs associated with business combinations, non-routine legal costs and professional fees for acquired business integration and changing our fiscal year end, losses on the revaluation of contingent consideration, non-capitalized ERP implementation costs and certain other non-routine items. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes from adjusted EBIT depreciation, amortization and non-cash share based compensation costs.

Management believes that excluding certain items from GAAP results allows management to better understand the consolidated financial performance from period to period and to better identify operating trends that may not otherwise be apparent. Moreover, the Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures will provide its stakeholders with useful information to help them evaluate operating performance. However, there are limitations to the use of the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this report. The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies who may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently than Team does, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.

The non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered as indicators of performance in isolation from or as a substitute for net income as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, prepared in accordance with GAAP, and should be read only in conjunction with financial information presented on a GAAP basis. Reconciliations of each non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure are presented below. You are encouraged to review the reconciliations in conjunction with the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures for each of the periods presented.

*For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company assumes a 37% tax rate in order to approximate our long-term effective tax rate.
