WILMINGTON, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Air Transport Services Group, Inc. ATSG, the leading provider of medium wide-body freighter aircraft leasing, air cargo transportation, and related services, today reported consolidated financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2016.

For the second quarter of 2016, compared with the second quarter of 2015:

  • Revenues increased 19 percent to $176.5 million. Excluding revenues from reimbursed expenses, revenues increased 13 percent. This increase included contributions from thirty-five Boeing 767 cargo aircraft leased to external customers at June 30, six more than a year earlier. Eight of those thirty-five leased 767s were operating for Amazon Fulfillment Services Inc. (AFS), a subsidiary of Amazon.com, which ATSG began serving in September 2015.
  • Pre-tax Earnings from Continuing Operations were $18.8 million, compared with $17.2 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings from Continuing Operations, as defined in our Earnings Summary later in this release, declined slightly to $16.3 million from $16.7 million, reflecting $2.6 million in ramp-up costs stemming primarily from flight crew compensation and training for the expanding Amazon and DHL CMI operations. Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings from Continuing Operations exclude non-cash charges associated with pension costs, lease incentive amortization, and the effects of financial instrument transactions, including a non-cash mark-to-market adjustment in the value of stock warrants granted to Amazon in March.
  • Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) from Continuing Operations, as adjusted for the same items excluded from Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings, increased 2 percent to $52.1 million.
  • Net Earnings from Continuing Operations on a GAAP basis were $11.5 million, or $0.12 per common share diluted in the second quarter, versus $10.6 million, or $0.16 per share a year ago. The 2016 Net Earnings from Continuing Operations include non-cash, after-tax effects of lease incentive amortization and the mark-to-market adjustment for stock warrants. Diluted Earnings per Share exclude the mark-to-market gain, net of tax, associated with the stock warrants.
  • Adjusted Earnings per Share from Continuing Operations for the second quarter of 2016 were $0.13 per share diluted and excludes the lease incentive amortization as well as the mark-to-market adjustment for the stock warrants, net of tax. Adjusted Earnings per Share from Continuing Operations were reduced by approximately $0.02 per share for the incremental ramp-up costs of the expanded customer CMI operations referenced above.

Adjusted Pre-Tax Earnings, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Earnings per Share from Continuing Operations are non-GAAP financial measures. Each is defined and reconciled to comparable GAAP results in tables later in this release.

Joe Hete, President and Chief Executive Officer of ATSG, said, "Our operating performance across the board in the second quarter was strong, and yielded financial results that met or exceeded our targets. Last week, we leased and began operating the tenth of twenty 767 freighters we will fly for Amazon. We expect margins to improve substantially in the second half as we approach our year-end 2016 target of forty-three dry-leased 767 freighters, and increase from twenty-two to thirty the number of those we operate for customers under multi-year CMI agreements. We have increased acquisitions of 767-300 airframes, and have secured the conversion slots to satisfy strong customer demand."

Revenue diversification continued to increase in the second quarter. DHL accounted for 37 percent, Amazon 22 percent, and the U.S. Military 13 percent of ATSG's second quarter 2016 revenues. That compares with 48 percent of revenues for DHL and 18 percent for the U.S. Military in the second quarter of 2015. Amazon became an ATSG customer in September 2015.

First-half capital expenditures were $125 million, versus $76 million in the first half of 2015. That included purchases of seven Boeing 767-300 aircraft, three in the second quarter, plus freighter modification costs for those and other aircraft, capitalized maintenance costs, and payments for other ground and maintenance equipment. Due to an acceleration in the rate of aircraft purchases to meet 2017 freighter demand, ATSG's 2016 capital spending is now projected to total $315 million, of which $235 million is budgeted for fleet expansion.

In May, ATSG again increased its access to growth-related credit by amending the credit facility agreement with its bank consortium. The amendment increases by $100 million, to $425 million, the revolver portion of the facility and provides greater flexibility for the company to execute share repurchases. The interest rate structure is unchanged. Outstanding debt against the revolver was $240 million at June 30, 2016. Leverage against EBITDA was approximately 1.8 times at quarter-end, and the variable interest rate on the revolver balance was 2.2 percent.

ATSG spent $7.7 million to repurchase 0.55 million shares of its common stock in the open market during the second quarter. That does not include a negotiated $50 million direct purchase in July of 3.8 million shares from a fund affiliate of Red Mountain Capital Partners, ATSG's largest shareholder. Accordingly, those 3.8 million shares were removed from the company's diluted share count beginning in July.

Pre-Tax Earnings   $ 16,229     $ 14,441     $ 35,739     $ 28,879

Significant Developments:

  • CAM's aircraft leasing and related revenues increased 6 percent to $48.4 million for the second quarter of 2016. Revenues from externally leased freighters and aircraft engines increased 23 percent, driven by six more external Boeing 767 dry leases than a year earlier.
  • Pre-tax earnings for the quarter increased 12 percent from the prior-year period. Depreciation expenses on CAM's expanded fleet were higher than a year ago.
  • CAM owned fifty-six Boeing cargo aircraft in serviceable condition as of June 30, the same number as in the first quarter but two more than last year. Eight CAM-owned 767-300s were awaiting, or in passenger-to-freighter modification. In June, one 767-200 was being prepared for deployment in the third quarter.
  • The twenty 767s CAM will lease and operate for Amazon include twelve Boeing 767-200s and eight 767-300s. Ten of the twelve 767-200s are now in operation for Amazon; the two others will be delivered in the fourth quarter. Three of the 767-300s will be leased to Amazon and placed into service by year-end, and the remaining five by the end of the first half of 2017. CAM began an eight-year lease of a 767-300 freighter to Amerijet in July. Additionally, CAM expects to lease a 767-300 to DHL under an eight year term starting in September, bringing to 17 the total portfolio of 767 aircraft leased to DHL.
  • More information about CAM's current and projected in-service fleet is provided in a table at the end of this release.

ACMI Services

Pre-Tax Earnings (Loss)   $ (7,130 )   $ 1,126     $ (17,486 )   $ (1,445 )

Significant Developments:

  • Revenues increased ten percent to $114.1 million. Airline services revenues were essentially flat at $98.2 million as the airlines operated fewer aircraft on an ACMI basis and more aircraft on a CMI basis. Block-hour utilization increased 12 percent, primarily from expanded CMI operations.
  • Lower pre-tax margins are attributable to $3.0 million in higher expenses for scheduled heavy maintenance events than in the second quarter a year ago, $2.4 million in higher non-cash pension expense, and $2.6 million in increased personnel costs to ramp up for expanding CMI operations for Amazon. The 2015 period included a $2.0 million benefit from an insurance settlement.

Other Activities

Other Activities   Second Quarter   Six Months
($ in thousands) 2016   2015 2016   2015

Pre-Tax Earnings   $ 4,130     $ 1,840     $ 7,998     $ 4,916

Significant Developments:

  • Inter-company revenues increased $11.9 million during the second quarter of 2016 to $24.2 million, driven by aircraft fuel and maintenance services for the company's airlines to support the Amazon network.
  • Results from all other activities in the second quarter benefited from expanded aircraft maintenance for Delta Air Lines and other customers, and increased package handling services for Amazon and the United States Postal Service.

Impact of Warrants

The investment agreement ATSG completed with Amazon in March granted warrants for them to acquire up to 19.9 percent of ATSG's common shares over five years. ATSG's earnings in the second quarter reflect the amortization of the lease incentive, which is based on the value of the warrants, as a reduction to revenue. This non-cash amortization is excluded from ATSG's calculation of Adjusted Pre-tax Earnings, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted Earnings per Share from Continuing Operations.

ATSG accounted for the majority of the initial tranche of 7.7 million warrants that vested in March under the equity method, which led to a $35.8 million increase in equity at March 31, reflecting the fair market value of then-issued warrants. However, after shareholder approval of the Amazon investment agreement in May 2016, warrant features were enabled that required the Company to treat them as a mark-to-market financial instrument liability on the balance sheet. Accordingly, changes in the market price of ATSG common shares each quarter will affect the fair value of the warrants and result in a change in the value of that liability. This effect for the second quarter was a $5.8 million pre-tax gain, which was recorded as a gain on financial instruments on the Company's statement of earnings. Going forward, management expects these items to continue to significantly impact GAAP net earnings until all of the warrants are exercised or expire.

For purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share in accordance with GAAP, the warrants were treated as an equity instrument during the second quarter. Accordingly, the mark-to-market gain on the stock warrants, net of tax, was disregarded in calculating Diluted Earnings per Share from Continuing Operations.

Outlook

This year's second quarter was the first full quarter of operations under the five-year air transportation services agreement with Amazon and the start of the second full year under ATSG's four-year commercial arrangements with DHL. Those agreements and others mean that forty-three 767s, or more than 80 percent of ATSG's serviceable 767 freighter fleet, will be covered by long-term dry lease agreements by the end of 2016.

"We are confident about the cash-generating power of ATSG's businesses for many years to come," Hete said. "We continue to estimate that Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations will be $218 million in 2016, after excluding our non-cash items as described above. We are also confident about continued growth in 2017 and beyond, as we deliver on the opportunities that growing e-commerce markets are creating."

Hete said that ATSG has the relationships and growth opportunities in place to generate strong cash returns over several years from its accelerated fleet investments and other initiatives. "We will continue to invest and operate our businesses for maximum performance. Having already repurchased 5.8 million of our shares since May 2015, ATSG will continue to buy back shares at a moderate pace, while having the flexibility to acquire blocks of shares on an opportunistic basis. Allocating capital where it can provide the best returns for shareholders remains our fundamental goal."

The Company's financial results as reported under GAAP, include the effects of stock warrants granted to a customer as a lease incentive. The value of the stock warrants was recorded as a customer lease incentive and is amortized over the term of the related aircraft leases. The stock warrants were revalued as of June 30, 2016, with the gain in fair value recorded to earnings. Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, as calculated under GAAP, excludes the after tax effects of the gain from revaluing the stock warrants at the end of the period. Adjusted Earnings from Continuing Operations and Adjusted Earnings per Share from Continuing Operations, non-GAAP measures presented below, reflect the Company's results after removing the lease incentive amortization and the warrant revaluation gain during the period.

Adjusted Earnings from Continuing Operations and Adjusted Earnings per Share from Continuing Operations are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered as alternatives to Earnings from Continuing Operations or Earnings per Share from Continuing Operations or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Earnings from Continuing Operations is defined as Earnings from Continuing Operations less the amortization of the lease incentive, net of taxes and less the warrant revaluation gain, net of taxes. The amortization of the lease incentive is recorded as a non-cash reduction to revenues recognized during a period. Management uses Adjusted Earnings from Continuing Operations and Adjusted Earnings per Share from Continuing Operations to compare the performance of its operating results among periods. Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted Earnings per Share from Continuing Operations should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the company's results as reported under GAAP.
