Enerflex Ltd. Reports Strong Second Quarter 2022 Results

CALGARY, Alberta, Aug. 10, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Enerflex Ltd. (“Enerflex” or the “Company”) (EFX–TSX) today reported its second quarter 2022 financial and operational results.

“Enerflex delivered another strong quarter, continuing to generate momentum in our business as we recover from the low activity levels we experienced over the last two years,” explained Marc Rossiter, Enerflex’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Today, we are seeing sustained strength across all regions and product lines and are diligently protecting our margins through prudent cost control and planning efforts.”

“With our base business in an advantageous position, we are focused on progressing the acquisition of Exterran Corporation,” continued Mr. Rossiter. “Enerflex and Exterran have each announced strong business performance based, in part, on a strong macro environment for natural gas, capturing meaningful new bookings and advancing in-flight projects. Through strong cash flow generation and expected synergies of US$60 million compared to US$40 million at announcement, we anticipate deleveraging more quickly, bringing our bank-adjusted net debt to EBITDA to below 2.5 times within 12 to 18 months of closing. The global outlook for natural gas is as constructive as ever, confirming the logic of consolidating two global leaders in the natural gas infrastructure business into one leaner, more cost-competitive, and capable organization.”

OVERVIEW

• Protecting and expanding gross margins is one of Enerflex’s top priorities. Driven by higher activity levels in the period, the Company’s revenue increased by $49 million to $372 million, and its gross margin of $64 million, or 17.1%, increased by $10 million from the first quarter of 2022. Gross margins improved across all product lines and continue to trend positively towards pre-pandemic levels.
• Reflecting the higher activity levels, Enerflex recognized earnings of $13 million, or $0.15 per share, and adjusted earnings before finance costs, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) of $45 million⁽¹⁾, increases of $13 million and $6 million, respectively, compared to the first quarter of 2022.
• Enerflex’s Engineered Systems bookings of $313 million⁽²⁾ increased by 32% relative to the first quarter of 2022 and more than doubled compared to the second quarter of 2021. Margins on new bookings have expanded from those secured during the pandemic.
• Enerflex grew its Engineered Systems backlog by $117 million during the quarter to a total of $737 million⁽²⁾ at June 30, 2022, the Company’s largest backlog in three years.
• The Company maintained its strong financial position, closing the period with long-term debt and net debt balances of $346 million and $199 million, respectively. The bank-adjusted net debt to EBITDA ratio was a conservative 1.36 times⁽²⁾, excluding non-recourse debt.
• The Company continues to progress all matters that need to be addressed to close the proposed acquisition (the “Transaction”) of Exterran Corporation (“Exterran”). See “Exterran Transaction Update” of this news release.

OUTLOOK

• The growing need for a secure energy supply has led to a structurally tight global commodity complex. While ongoing volatility is expected in global economies and commodity prices, Enerflex is strategically positioned to benefit over the long term.
  • The underlying driver of Enerflex’s business is the demand for natural gas, the outlook for which is robust. The continued growth of liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) exports off the US Gulf Coast and the need for reliable power generation in regions like Latin America and the Middle East present strong demand fundamentals.
  • The Company is also strategically positioned to participate meaningfully in global decarbonization efforts, partnering with customers across the globe as they strive to reduce their emissions profiles.
• Managing a strong balance sheet and maintaining ample liquidity are key tenets of Enerflex’s long-term strategy. The Company continues to be disciplined in its investments and discretionary spending to protect its financial position.
• Enerflex is focused on expanding its gross margins while profitably investing in Energy Infrastructure to grow its recurring revenue profile. Recurring revenue from Enerflex’s Energy Infrastructure and Service product lines continues to stabilize the Company’s cash flows, and recent growth in Engineered Systems bookings and backlog should continue to improve the Company’s financial position.
• Enerflex continues to actively manage supply chain and inflationary pressures across its regions and will continue to do so through the balance of 2022.
  • Most inflationary pressures experienced to date pertain to the availability of materials and escalating operating expenses. The Company continues to be strategic in its inventory planning based on the bid pipeline, working closely with customers to mitigate significant cost exposures and delivery delays.

FINANCIAL RESULTS

Revenue

• The Company’s revenue increased by 15% to $372 million, compared to first quarter 2022 revenue of $323 million. The increase in revenue was the result of a larger opening backlog, a higher contract compression utilization rate, and increased work volume within all segments.

Gross Margin

• The Company’s gross margin increased to $64 million, or 17.1%, up $10 million from first quarter 2022 gross margin of $54 million. The positive trend in gross margin is primarily due to the increased volume of work in the quarter.
  • The gross margins for Service and Engineered Systems product lines improved, increasing to 15.4% and 10.0%, respectively, as margins for the two product lines continue to trend positively towards pre-pandemic levels.
  • The gross margin for the Energy Infrastructure product line was relatively unchanged at 39.4%, reflecting the stability of the revenue and cost profiles associated with the Company’s long-term build-own-operate-maintain solutions, infrastructure leases, and contract compression solutions.

Net Earnings

• Enerflex recognized net earnings of $13 million, or $0.15 per share, during the second quarter of 2022, compared to a slight net loss in the first quarter of 2022. The increase in earnings was primarily driven by a stronger gross margin resulting from improved business activity, and lower share-based compensation expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA

• During the second quarter of 2022, Enerflex delivered an adjusted EBITDA of $45 million compared to $39 million in the first quarter of 2022. An expanding gross margin, lower share-based compensation expenses, and lower transaction costs resulted in a higher adjusted EBITDA.

Capital Expenditures and Work-in-progress Related to Finance Leases

• Enerflex invested approximately $24 million in Energy Infrastructure capital expenditures and work-in-progress (“WIP”) related to finance leases during the second quarter of 2022.
  • $12 million was invested in the Company’s rental assets, including $8 million for the organic expansion of the USA contract compression fleet to meet growing customer demand in the Permian Basin.
  • $12 million was invested in the large natural gas infrastructure project underway in the Rest of World segment, which remains on schedule to be completed in late 2022.

Financial Position

• At June 30, 2022, Enerflex’s long-term debt balance was $346 million, and its net debt balance was $199 million. The bank-adjusted net debt to EBITDA ratio was a conservative 1.36 times, excluding non-recourse debt.
  • Long-term debt comprised $271 million of senior unsecured notes outstanding and $78 million in combined borrowings under the Company’s Bank Facility and Asset-based Facility, which were offset by $3 million in deferred transaction costs.
  • Enerflex maintains ample liquidity, with approximately $679 million of capacity currently remaining on its Bank Facility and Asset-based Facility.

Dividends

• The Company is committed to delivering a sustainable dividend to shareholders. Accordingly, the Board of Directors has declared a quarterly dividend of $0.025 per share, payable on October 6, 2022 to shareholders of record on August 18, 2022.

SEGMENTED RESULTS

• The following table details financial and operational results by business segment for the second quarter of 2022:

USA

• The USA segment continued to significantly contribute to Enerflex’s overall performance, with increased Permian activity and the continued growth of LNG exports off the US Gulf Coast driving demand for the Company’s products and services.
• Revenue during the second quarter of 2022 increased across all product lines compared to the first quarter of 2022, and the USA contract compression fleet reached an average utilization rate of 94%, its highest to date.

Canada

• Canadian activity levels have improved despite producers’ commitment to capital discipline and returning capital to shareholders. However, the ongoing negotiations between Blueberry River First Nations and the Government of British Columbia regarding continued resource development in the province continue to temper activity in the region.
• Enerflex realized revenue increases across all product lines relative to the first quarter of 2022. Notably, Service revenue expanded from new parts orders and maintenance service agreements during the period.

Rest of World

• Service revenues improved in several countries within the Rest of World segment, as the Company was able to alleviate certain supply chain constraints experienced in early 2022. Revenues generated by the Engineered Systems product line decreased due to the recognition of the finance lease that began operations in the first quarter of 2022.
• Enerflex reclassed a small project from the Engineered Systems product line to the Energy Infrastructure product line, which resulted in negative bookings for the period.

EXTERRAN TRANSACTION UPDATE

On January 24, 2022, the Company announced the proposed acquisition of Exterran, in which Enerflex would acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Exterran by issuing 1.021 common shares of Enerflex in exchange for each share of Exterran. The closing of the Transaction is subject to obtaining regulatory approvals and approval by shareholders of Enerflex and Exterran, and satisfying other conditions that are customary for a transaction of this type, which are fully described in the Merger Agreement that has been entered into by Enerflex, Enerflex US Holdings Inc., and Exterran (the “Merger Agreement”) and is available under Enerflex’s SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com.

The Company continues to progress all matters that need to be addressed to close the Transaction. A number of the required regulatory approvals have been obtained and the Company continues to pursue the approval required from the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in connection with the registration of the common shares of Enerflex in the United States.

Subject to receipt of all regulatory approvals, Enerflex expects to deliver to its shareholders a management information circular (the “Circular”) in the coming weeks for the special meeting of Enerflex shareholders that will consider the Transaction. The Circular will contain a detailed description of the Transaction and will be available under Enerflex’s SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com as well as Enerflex’s website at www.enerflex.com. All Enerflex shareholders are urged to read the Circular in its entirety once available, as it will contain important information concerning the Transaction. Pending satisfaction of the terms and conditions as set forth in the Merger Agreement, Enerflex anticipates closing the Transaction in the second half of 2022.

Following the execution of the Merger Agreement, Exterran advised Enerflex that the Local Labor Board of the State of Tabasco in Mexico (the “Labor Board”) had awarded (the “Labor Board Decision”) a former employee of one of Exterran’s Mexican subsidiaries approximately US$120 million in connection with a dispute (the “Dispute”) substantially relating to such former employee’s (i) severance pay following their termination of employment; and (ii) alleged differences in salary payments.

Exterran has filed an appeal of the Labor Board Decision to the federal appellate court in Mexico (the “Appeals Court”) and is of the view that the Labor Board erred in granting such award and that the award has no credible basis in law or fact. Exterran has publicly disclosed that it has already paid the employee the undisputed portion of their severance pay, as previously determined by the Labor Board based on company records, and that the Labor Board Decision contradicts earlier court rulings. According to Exterran, among other errors that are the subject of the appeal is the Labor Board’s (a) violation of principles of res judicata by disregarding prior court decisions establishing that the former employee’s salary was roughly $3,500 MXN per day (approximately US$170 per day), (b) ignoring the applicable one-year statute of limitations in these types of matters, and (c) awarding of salary differences that were never part of the former employee’s original or subsequent claims.

Exterran has disclosed that although it may incur some loss with respect to such matter, the ultimate resolution of this matter will not be material to Exterran.

Enerflex has been regularly communicating with Exterran regarding the Dispute since the time that the Company was made aware of it and has engaged and sought advice from legal counsel, including two separate expert legal litigation counsel in Mexico, to assist the Company in evaluating the Dispute and the impact on Exterran, Enerflex, the potentially combined entity, and the Transaction in the event that the Labor Board Decision is not reversed.

Since announcing the Transaction, both Enerflex and Exterran have reported better-than-expected financial results, driven by strengthened bookings and macroeconomic conditions. In addition, interest rates have risen, the timing of expected expenditures has been delayed, and the timing of associated tax payments has been revised. Accordingly, the Company has updated its expectations for the following pro forma Transaction-related metrics:

NON-IFRS MEASURES

Throughout this news release and in other materials disclosed by the Company, Enerflex employs certain measures to analyze its financial performance, financial position, and cash flow. These non-IFRS measures are not standardized financial measures under IFRS and may not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other issuers. The non-IFRS measures should not be considered to be more meaningful than generally accepted accounting principles measures which are determined in accordance with IFRS, such as net earnings (loss), EBIT, and EBITDA, as indicators of Enerflex’s performance.

Adjusted EBITDA

The Company’s results include items that are unique and items that Management and users of the financial statements adjust for when evaluating the Company’s performance and results. The presentation of adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from EBIT or EBITDA, as determined under IFRS. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure and may not be comparable to similar non-IFRS measures disclosed by other issuers.

The items that have been adjusted historically for presentation purposes relate generally to five categories:

1. Impairment or gains on idle facilities, excluding rental asset impairments
2. Severance costs associated with restructuring activities and cost reduction initiatives undertaken in response to the COVID-19 pandemic
3. Grants received from federal governments in response to the COVID-19 pandemic
4. Transaction costs related to mergers and acquisitions activity
5. Share-based compensation

Enerflex has presented the impact of share-based compensation as it is an item that can fluctuate significantly with share price changes during a period based on factors that are not specific to the long-term performance of the Company.

Management believes that identification of these items allows for a better understanding of the underlying operations of the Company based on the current assets and structure.
