    Challenges prevailed…again in 4Q2021. While revenue of $163.2 million was higher than expected, EBITDA of $0.8 million was in line with our recent revisions. Profitability remained under pressure to COVID related and other issues and EBITDA margin was 20 bps light.

    Update after today’s call, but recovery expected this year and no change to 2022 EBITDA.  Our current EBITDA estimate of $37.0 million sets the bar lower and incorporates the startup of large multi-year projects. Given the 2H2021 increase in backlog, we forecast that total 2022 revenue should rebound into the $665 million range, or Marine revenue of $325 million and Concrete revenue of $340 million …

Release – Orion Group Holdings Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2021 Results

 



Orion Group Holdings, Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2021 Results

Research, News, and Market Data on Orion Group Holdings

 

HOUSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Mar. 2, 2022– 
Orion Group Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: ORN) (the “Company”), a leading specialty construction company, today reported a net loss of 
$8.8 million (
$0.29 diluted loss per share) for the fourth quarter ended 
December 31, 2021. Fourth quarter highlights are discussed below. For full year results please refer to the financial statements starting on page 7.

Fourth Quarter 2021 Highlights

  • Operating loss was 
    $8.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to operating income of 
    $5.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2020.
  • Net loss was 
    $8.8 million (
    $0.29 diluted loss per share) for the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to net income of 
    $3.7 million (
    $0.12 diluted earnings per share) for the fourth quarter of 2020.
  • The fourth quarter 2021 net loss included 
    $1.9 million (
    $0.06 loss per diluted share) of non-recurring items and 
    $1.6 million (
    $0.06 loss per diluted share) of tax expense associated with the movement of certain valuation allowances. Fourth quarter 2021 adjusted net loss was 
    $5.3 million (
    $0.17 diluted loss per share). (Please see page 9 of this release for a reconciliation of adjusted net income).
  • EBITDA, adjusted to exclude the impact of the aforementioned non-recurring items, was 0.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, which compares to adjusted EBITDA of 
    $12.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. (Please see page 10 of this release for an explanation of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measure).
  • Backlog at the end of the fourth quarter was 
    $590.0 million on a fourth quarter book-to-bill of 1.11x.

“Our fourth quarter reflects the lag effects from the COVID-19 pandemic, which reduced the volume of work in our marine business and pressured project margins in our concrete business,” stated  Mark Stauffer, Orion’s Chief Executive Officer. “Additionally, the Omicron variant of the COVID-19 virus impacted our operations during the latter part of the quarter.

Marine segment revenues began recovering during the quarter but were still down significantly year over year. Concrete project margins, primarily in our 
Houston market, remained under pressure as we emerge from the pandemic.”

Mr. Stauffer continued, “That said, we ended the year with backlog up sequentially and up significantly year over year. Fueled by recent awards, the amount of work we won during 2021 was up 27% over the prior year, allowing us to enter 2022 with confidence that revenues will grow, leading to better capacity utilization, overhead absorption, and improved results. We closed the fourth quarter with year-ending backlog of 
$590.0 million, up 34% from the end of 2020. Within that backlog figure, approximately 75% is due to burn in FY’22. Overall bidding activity remains robust, with the amount of quoted work outstanding at year end up 63% year over year. The recently passed 
Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act will provide a long-term tailwind, both directly in the form of funds earmarked for work in our markets, and indirectly as market capacity utilization increases as it is deployed on projects funded through the Act.

We’ve worked through a period with significant challenges to the economy and our business. During this period our team has been focused and disciplined on responsibly bidding and executing work. We are well positioned to take advantage of the improving market dynamics and tailwinds in our market drivers.”

Consolidated Results for Fourth Quarter 2021 Compared to Fourth Quarter 2020

  • Contract revenues were 
    $162.3 million, down 4.6% as compared to 
    $170.2 million. The decrease was primarily driven by the timing and mix of several large marine projects that had driven activity in the prior year, which were not replicated or replaced in the current year quarter. This decrease was partially offset by increased production volumes in our concrete segment due to an increase in activity during 2021, including on several larger jobs in the current year period as compared to the prior year period.
  • Gross profit was 
    $6.6 million, as compared to 
    $21.7 million. Gross profit margin was 4.1%, as compared to 12.8%. The decrease in gross profit dollars and percentage was primarily driven by the decreased activity and volumes in the marine segment which negatively impacted revenue and contributed to an under recovery of indirect costs primarily related to decreased labor and equipment utilization. Decreased project performance in the concrete segment was driven by inefficiencies in executing work from pressured bid margins and COVID-19 related impacts.
  • Selling, General, and Administrative expenses were 
    $16.1 million, as compared to 
    $17.4 million. As a percentage of total contract revenues, SG&A expenses decreased from 10.2% to 9.9%. The decrease in SG&A dollars was driven primarily by a decrease in bonus expense as compared to the prior year period.
  • Operating loss was 
    $8.2 million as compared to operating income of 
    $5.1 million in the prior year period.
  • EBITDA was 
    $(1.9) million, representing a (1.1)% EBITDA margin, as compared to EBITDA of 
    $11.7 million, or a 6.9% EBITDA margin. When adjusted for non-recurring items, adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2021 was 
    $0.8 million, representing a 0.5% EBITDA margin. (Please see page 10 of this release for an explanation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measure).

Backlog

Backlog of work under contract as of 
December 31, 2021, was 
$590.0 million, which compares with backlog under contract as of 
December 31, 2020, of 
$439.5 million. The fourth quarter 2021 ending backlog was comprised of 
$376.9 million for the marine segment, and 
$213.1 million for the concrete segment. At the end of the fourth quarter 2021, the Company had approximately 
$2.6 billion worth of bids outstanding, including approximately 
$138 million on which it is the apparent low bidder or has been awarded contracts subsequent to the end of the fourth quarter of 2021, of which approximately 
$24 million pertains to the marine segment and approximately 
$114 million to the concrete segment.

“During the fourth quarter, we bid on approximately 
$1.6 billion of work and were successful on approximately 
$180 million of these bids,” continued  Mr. Stauffer. “This resulted in a 1.11 times book-to-bill ratio and a win rate of 11.0%. In the marine segment, we bid on approximately 
$807 million during the fourth quarter 2021 and were successful on approximately 
$70 million, representing a win rate of 8.7% and a book-to-bill ratio of 0.96 times. In the concrete segment we bid on approximately 
$825 million of work and were awarded approximately 
$110 million, representing a win rate of 13.3% and a book-to-bill ratio of 1.23 times.”

Backlog consists of projects under contract that have either (a) not been started, or (b) are in progress but are not yet complete. The Company cannot guarantee that the revenue implied by its backlog will be realized, or, if realized, will result in earnings. Backlog can fluctuate from period to period due to the timing and execution of contracts. Given the typical duration of the Company’s projects, which generally range from three to nine months, the Company’s backlog at any point in time usually represents only a portion of the revenue it expects to realize during a twelve-month period.

Credit Facility

Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company amended its Credit Agreement effective for the quarter ending 
December 31, 2021. The goal of this amendment was to provide the Company with a waiver and greater flexibility as it provides for suspension of the leverage ratio and fixed charge coverage ratio for the quarter ending 
December 31, 2021, before reverting back to a leverage ratio not to exceed 3.0 times beginning in the third quarter of 2022, and reverting back to a fixed charge coverage ratio of a minimum of 1.25 times beginning the fourth quarter of 2022. Additionally, the amendment reduces the revolver to 
$42.5 million and provides for paydowns on the revolver by the amount of any cash balances exceeding 
$10 million until delivery of the third quarter 2022 compliance certificate. Capacity created by any such paydowns remains available to the Company. The amendment includes minimum EBITDA requirements for the first and second quarters of 2022. The new fees associated with the amendment are approximately 
$0.4 million and will be amortized over the remaining term of the facility. The Company is pleased with the continued support from its lenders and looks forward to maintaining its excellent relationship with its bank group.

Orion Group Holdings will host a conference call to discuss results for the fourth quarter 2021 at

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes the financial measures “adjusted net income,” “adjusted earnings per share,” “EBITDA,” “Adjusted EBITDA” and “Adjusted EBITDA margin.” These measurements are “non-GAAP financial measures” under rules of the 
Securities and Exchange Commission, including Regulation G. The non-GAAP financial information may be determined or calculated differently by other companies. By reporting such non-GAAP financial information, the Company does not intend to give such information greater prominence than comparable GAAP financial information. Investors are urged to consider these non-GAAP measures in addition to and not in substitute for measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share are not an alternative to net income or earnings per share. Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share exclude certain items that management believes impairs a meaningful comparison of operating results. The company believes these adjusted financial measures are a useful adjunct to earnings calculated in accordance with GAAP because management uses adjusted net income available to common stockholders to evaluate the company’s operational trends and performance relative to other companies. Generally, items excluded, are one-time items or items whose timing or amount cannot be reasonably estimated. Accordingly, any guidance provided by the company generally excludes information regarding these types of items.

Orion Group Holdings defines EBITDA as net income before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adjusting EBITDA for certain items that management believes impairs a meaningful comparison of operating results. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA for the period by contract revenues for the period. The GAAP financial measure that is most directly comparable to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is net income, while the GAAP financial measure that is most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA margin is operating margin, which represents operating income divided by contract revenues. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are used internally to evaluate current operating expense, operating efficiency, and operating profitability on a variable cost basis, by excluding the depreciation and amortization expenses, primarily related to capital expenditures and acquisitions, and net interest and tax expenses. Additionally, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin provide useful information regarding the Company’s ability to meet future debt service and working capital requirements while providing an overall evaluation of the Company’s financial condition. In addition, EBITDA is used internally for incentive compensation purposes. The Company includes EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin to provide transparency to investors as they are commonly used by investors and others in assessing performance. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin have certain limitations as analytical tools and should not be used as a substitute for operating margin, net income, cash flows, or other data prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in 
the United States, or as a measure of the Company’s profitability or liquidity.

The matters discussed in this press release may constitute or include projections or other forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the provisions of which the Company is availing itself. Certain forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as ‘believes’, ‘expects’, ‘may’, ‘will’, ‘could’, ‘should’, ‘seeks’, ‘approximately’, ‘intends’, ‘plans’, ‘estimates’, or ‘anticipates’, or the negative thereof or other comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy, plans, objectives, intentions, estimates, forecasts, outlook, assumptions, or goals. In particular, statements regarding future operations or results, including those set forth in this press release, and any other statement, express or implied, concerning future operating results or the future generation of or ability to generate revenues, income, net income, gross profit, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, or cash flow, including to service debt, and including any estimates, forecasts or assumptions regarding future revenues or revenue growth, are forward-looking statements. Forward looking statements also include estimated project start date, anticipated revenues, and contract options which may or may not be awarded in the future.

Past performance is not necessarily an indicator of future results. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of forward-looking statements in this press release should not be regarded as a representation by the Company that the Company’s plans, estimates, forecasts, goals, intentions, or objectives will be achieved or realized. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof.

Orion Group Holdings, Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2021 Results

 



Orion Group Holdings, Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2021 Results

Research, News, and Market Data on Orion Group Holdings

 

HOUSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Mar. 2, 2022– 
Orion Group Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: ORN) (the “Company”), a leading specialty construction company, today reported a net loss of 
$8.8 million (
$0.29 diluted loss per share) for the fourth quarter ended 
December 31, 2021. Fourth quarter highlights are discussed below. For full year results please refer to the financial statements starting on page 7.

Fourth Quarter 2021 Highlights

  • Operating loss was 
    $8.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to operating income of 
    $5.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2020.
  • Net loss was 
    $8.8 million (
    $0.29 diluted loss per share) for the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to net income of 
    $3.7 million (
    $0.12 diluted earnings per share) for the fourth quarter of 2020.
  • The fourth quarter 2021 net loss included 
    $1.9 million (
    $0.06 loss per diluted share) of non-recurring items and 
    $1.6 million (
    $0.06 loss per diluted share) of tax expense associated with the movement of certain valuation allowances. Fourth quarter 2021 adjusted net loss was 
    $5.3 million (
    $0.17 diluted loss per share). (Please see page 9 of this release for a reconciliation of adjusted net income).
  • EBITDA, adjusted to exclude the impact of the aforementioned non-recurring items, was 0.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, which compares to adjusted EBITDA of 
    $12.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. (Please see page 10 of this release for an explanation of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measure).
  • Backlog at the end of the fourth quarter was 
    $590.0 million on a fourth quarter book-to-bill of 1.11x.

“Our fourth quarter reflects the lag effects from the COVID-19 pandemic, which reduced the volume of work in our marine business and pressured project margins in our concrete business,” stated  Mark Stauffer, Orion’s Chief Executive Officer. “Additionally, the Omicron variant of the COVID-19 virus impacted our operations during the latter part of the quarter.

Marine segment revenues began recovering during the quarter but were still down significantly year over year. Concrete project margins, primarily in our 
Houston market, remained under pressure as we emerge from the pandemic.”

Mr. Stauffer continued, “That said, we ended the year with backlog up sequentially and up significantly year over year. Fueled by recent awards, the amount of work we won during 2021 was up 27% over the prior year, allowing us to enter 2022 with confidence that revenues will grow, leading to better capacity utilization, overhead absorption, and improved results. We closed the fourth quarter with year-ending backlog of 
$590.0 million, up 34% from the end of 2020. Within that backlog figure, approximately 75% is due to burn in FY’22. Overall bidding activity remains robust, with the amount of quoted work outstanding at year end up 63% year over year. The recently passed 
Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act will provide a long-term tailwind, both directly in the form of funds earmarked for work in our markets, and indirectly as market capacity utilization increases as it is deployed on projects funded through the Act.

We’ve worked through a period with significant challenges to the economy and our business. During this period our team has been focused and disciplined on responsibly bidding and executing work. We are well positioned to take advantage of the improving market dynamics and tailwinds in our market drivers.”

Consolidated Results for Fourth Quarter 2021 Compared to Fourth Quarter 2020

  • Contract revenues were 
    $162.3 million, down 4.6% as compared to 
    $170.2 million. The decrease was primarily driven by the timing and mix of several large marine projects that had driven activity in the prior year, which were not replicated or replaced in the current year quarter. This decrease was partially offset by increased production volumes in our concrete segment due to an increase in activity during 2021, including on several larger jobs in the current year period as compared to the prior year period.
  • Gross profit was 
    $6.6 million, as compared to 
    $21.7 million. Gross profit margin was 4.1%, as compared to 12.8%. The decrease in gross profit dollars and percentage was primarily driven by the decreased activity and volumes in the marine segment which negatively impacted revenue and contributed to an under recovery of indirect costs primarily related to decreased labor and equipment utilization. Decreased project performance in the concrete segment was driven by inefficiencies in executing work from pressured bid margins and COVID-19 related impacts.
  • Selling, General, and Administrative expenses were 
    $16.1 million, as compared to 
    $17.4 million. As a percentage of total contract revenues, SG&A expenses decreased from 10.2% to 9.9%. The decrease in SG&A dollars was driven primarily by a decrease in bonus expense as compared to the prior year period.
  • Operating loss was 
    $8.2 million as compared to operating income of 
    $5.1 million in the prior year period.
  • EBITDA was 
    $(1.9) million, representing a (1.1)% EBITDA margin, as compared to EBITDA of 
    $11.7 million, or a 6.9% EBITDA margin. When adjusted for non-recurring items, adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2021 was 
    $0.8 million, representing a 0.5% EBITDA margin. (Please see page 10 of this release for an explanation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measure).

Backlog

Backlog of work under contract as of 
December 31, 2021, was 
$590.0 million, which compares with backlog under contract as of 
December 31, 2020, of 
$439.5 million. The fourth quarter 2021 ending backlog was comprised of 
$376.9 million for the marine segment, and 
$213.1 million for the concrete segment. At the end of the fourth quarter 2021, the Company had approximately 
$2.6 billion worth of bids outstanding, including approximately 
$138 million on which it is the apparent low bidder or has been awarded contracts subsequent to the end of the fourth quarter of 2021, of which approximately 
$24 million pertains to the marine segment and approximately 
$114 million to the concrete segment.

“During the fourth quarter, we bid on approximately 
$1.6 billion of work and were successful on approximately 
$180 million of these bids,” continued  Mr. Stauffer. “This resulted in a 1.11 times book-to-bill ratio and a win rate of 11.0%. In the marine segment, we bid on approximately 
$807 million during the fourth quarter 2021 and were successful on approximately 
$70 million, representing a win rate of 8.7% and a book-to-bill ratio of 0.96 times. In the concrete segment we bid on approximately 
$825 million of work and were awarded approximately 
$110 million, representing a win rate of 13.3% and a book-to-bill ratio of 1.23 times.”

Backlog consists of projects under contract that have either (a) not been started, or (b) are in progress but are not yet complete. The Company cannot guarantee that the revenue implied by its backlog will be realized, or, if realized, will result in earnings. Backlog can fluctuate from period to period due to the timing and execution of contracts. Given the typical duration of the Company’s projects, which generally range from three to nine months, the Company’s backlog at any point in time usually represents only a portion of the revenue it expects to realize during a twelve-month period.

Credit Facility

Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company amended its Credit Agreement effective for the quarter ending 
December 31, 2021. The goal of this amendment was to provide the Company with a waiver and greater flexibility as it provides for suspension of the leverage ratio and fixed charge coverage ratio for the quarter ending 
December 31, 2021, before reverting back to a leverage ratio not to exceed 3.0 times beginning in the third quarter of 2022, and reverting back to a fixed charge coverage ratio of a minimum of 1.25 times beginning the fourth quarter of 2022. Additionally, the amendment reduces the revolver to 
$42.5 million and provides for paydowns on the revolver by the amount of any cash balances exceeding 
$10 million until delivery of the third quarter 2022 compliance certificate. Capacity created by any such paydowns remains available to the Company. The amendment includes minimum EBITDA requirements for the first and second quarters of 2022. The new fees associated with the amendment are approximately 
$0.4 million and will be amortized over the remaining term of the facility. The Company is pleased with the continued support from its lenders and looks forward to maintaining its excellent relationship with its bank group.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes the financial measures “adjusted net income,” “adjusted earnings per share,” “EBITDA,” “Adjusted EBITDA” and “Adjusted EBITDA margin.” These measurements are “non-GAAP financial measures” under rules of the 
Securities and Exchange Commission, including Regulation G. The non-GAAP financial information may be determined or calculated differently by other companies. By reporting such non-GAAP financial information, the Company does not intend to give such information greater prominence than comparable GAAP financial information. Investors are urged to consider these non-GAAP measures in addition to and not in substitute for measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share are not an alternative to net income or earnings per share. Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share exclude certain items that management believes impairs a meaningful comparison of operating results. The company believes these adjusted financial measures are a useful adjunct to earnings calculated in accordance with GAAP because management uses adjusted net income available to common stockholders to evaluate the company’s operational trends and performance relative to other companies. Generally, items excluded, are one-time items or items whose timing or amount cannot be reasonably estimated. Accordingly, any guidance provided by the company generally excludes information regarding these types of items.

Orion Group Holdings defines EBITDA as net income before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adjusting EBITDA for certain items that management believes impairs a meaningful comparison of operating results. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA for the period by contract revenues for the period. The GAAP financial measure that is most directly comparable to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is net income, while the GAAP financial measure that is most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA margin is operating margin, which represents operating income divided by contract revenues. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are used internally to evaluate current operating expense, operating efficiency, and operating profitability on a variable cost basis, by excluding the depreciation and amortization expenses, primarily related to capital expenditures and acquisitions, and net interest and tax expenses. Additionally, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin provide useful information regarding the Company’s ability to meet future debt service and working capital requirements while providing an overall evaluation of the Company’s financial condition. In addition, EBITDA is used internally for incentive compensation purposes. The Company includes EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin to provide transparency to investors as they are commonly used by investors and others in assessing performance. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin have certain limitations as analytical tools and should not be used as a substitute for operating margin, net income, cash flows, or other data prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in 
the United States, or as a measure of the Company’s profitability or liquidity.

The matters discussed in this press release may constitute or include projections or other forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the provisions of which the Company is availing itself. Certain forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as ‘believes’, ‘expects’, ‘may’, ‘will’, ‘could’, ‘should’, ‘seeks’, ‘approximately’, ‘intends’, ‘plans’, ‘estimates’, or ‘anticipates’, or the negative thereof or other comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy, plans, objectives, intentions, estimates, forecasts, outlook, assumptions, or goals. In particular, statements regarding future operations or results, including those set forth in this press release, and any other statement, express or implied, concerning future operating results or the future generation of or ability to generate revenues, income, net income, gross profit, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, or cash flow, including to service debt, and including any estimates, forecasts or assumptions regarding future revenues or revenue growth, are forward-looking statements. Forward looking statements also include estimated project start date, anticipated revenues, and contract options which may or may not be awarded in the future. Forward looking statements involve risks, including those associated with the Company’s fixed price contracts that impacts profits, unforeseen productivity delays that may alter the final profitability of the contract, cancellation of the contract by the customer for unforeseen reasons, delays or decreases in funding by the customer, levels and predictability of government funding or other governmental budgetary constraints, the effects of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and any potential contract options which may or may not be awarded in the future, and are at the sole discretion of award by the customer. Past performance is not necessarily an indicator of future results. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of forward-looking statements in this press release should not be regarded as a representation by the Company that the Company’s plans, estimates, forecasts, goals, intentions, or objectives will be achieved or realized. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. The Company assumes no obligation to update information contained in this press release whether as a result of new developments or otherwise.

Please refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed on 
March 2, 2021, which is available on its website at www.oriongroupholdingsinc.com or at the 
SEC’s website at www.sec.gov, for additional and more detailed discussion of risk factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our current expectations, estimates or forecasts.

Release – Seanergy Announces New Refinancing Facility of $21.3 million with a Prominent Japanese Lender



Seanergy Announces New Refinancing Facility of $21.3 million with a Prominent Japanese Lender

Research, News, and Market Data on Seanergy Maritime

 

GLYFADA, Greece, March 02, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. (the “Company” or “Seanergy”) (NASDAQ: SHIP) reported today that it has entered into a definitive agreement with a reputable Japanese lender to refinance the loan facilities secured by the 2012-built Capesize M/V Partnership (the “Vessel”) through a sale and leaseback structure.

Pursuant to the terms of the new facility, the Vessel will be sold and chartered back on a bareboat basis for an eight-year period starting at the time of the closing, which is anticipated promptly, within March 2022.

The financing amount is $21.3 million and the applicable interest rate is SOFR + 2.90% per annum. The new interest rate is approximately 210 bps lower as compared to the blended rate of the existing senior and junior loan facilities secured currently by the Vessel. Moreover, $4.3 million of additional liquidity will be released to the Company through the refinancing.

The facility will amortize through quarterly instalments averaging at approximately $590,000. Following the second anniversary of the bareboat charter, the Company has continuous options to repurchase the Vessel. At the end of the 8-year bareboat period, Seanergy has an option to repurchase the Vessel for $2.39 million, which the Company expects to exercise.

Following the consummation of the refinancing, the Company will have no further junior debt outstanding.

Fearnley Securities AS have acted as the Company’s exclusive financial advisor for this financing offering valuable support in the origination, structuring and execution of the transaction.

Stamatis Tsantanis, the Company’s Chairman & Chief Executive Officer, stated:

“I am pleased to announce another successful refinancing for our Company, consistent with our commitment to optimize the capital structure and further reduce our financing expense. The transaction marks an important milestone for our Company, since, following consummation, there will be no legacy junior debt outstanding.

“The transaction has another strategic element for Seanergy, as we have initiated a valuable relationship with a prominent lender in the Japanese market. In the last 12 months, we have strengthened our footing in the Asian ship-financing market through similar transactions in China, Taiwan and Japan.”

TCE rates of $35.2k/day were $800 below our estimate of $36.0k/day. Based on total ownership days and versus our estimates, operating costs of $5,766k/day were $666 higher and G&A expenses of $1,755/day were $417 higher. As a result, the 4Q2021 dividend of $0.67/share was below our estimate of $0.80/share.

    Fine tuning 2022 EBITDA and dividend estimates.  Forward cover of 87% of 4Q2021 days booked at ~$24.2k/day creates a solid base and the quarter should be solid even though the BCI and BSI weakened over the past quarter before rebounding ahead of Chinese New Year.

    Time charter on Aegean Express feeder ahead of expectations. Consistent with comments from the recent earnings call, a 36-39 month time charter on the 1,439 TEU Aegean Express Feeder was secured at at an average TCE rate of $41.0k/day. The time charter should generate total revenue of $47.0 million and EBITDA of $36.0 million over the first 36 months, or EBITDA of close to $1.0 million per month beginning in early April.
