Results In-Line with Expectations
Product Sales Backlog Ended Quarter at $648 million, Up Over 130% Sequentially
Over $200 million in Contract Operation Bookings, Backlog at Quarter End was $1.35 billion
Over $430 Million in Liquidity with No Near-Term Maturities
HOUSTON, May 11, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Exterran Corporation EXTN ("Exterran" or the "Company") today reported first quarter financial results.
Andrew Way, Exterran's President and Chief Executive Officer commented, "We had a strong commercial start to the year with over $450 million of product sales bookings along with over $200 million of Contract Operations bookings, and a new sizeable contract within Aftermarket Services. Along with these commercial successes, our crisis management group's early planning allowed all of our critical operations to remain open and operational throughout the quarter. This has allowed us to aggressively address the challenges our industry is facing with the COVID-19 pandemic and with the impacts associated with oil price declines. We continue to monitor the impact of COVID-19 on our operations with a focus on the health and well-being of our employees and the communities where we work and serve."
"During these times we have planned for a range of scenarios for our business, as we cannot predict the depth and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and the ancillary fallout in oil prices. We are seeing logistical and supply chain challenges throughout our organization due to travel restrictions and border closures. We are taking actions to reduce costs to ensure the long-term strength of the organization. This includes, adjusting our cost structure where necessary, including reducing CEO salary and Board compensation, eliminating discretionary spending, and scrutinizing our maintenance and other capital expenditures. That said, backed by our strong contracted backlog, over $430 million in liquidity, low leverage, and no near-term maturities, we believe we are well positioned to succeed through this downturn and as the industry recovers."
Net loss from continuing operations was $18.2 million, or $0.56 per share, on revenue of $210.4 million for the first quarter of 2020. This compares to net loss from continuing operations of $80.2 million, or $2.45 per share, on revenue of $272.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2019 and net loss from continuing operations of $5.6 million, or $0.16 per share, on revenue of $351.4 million for the first quarter of 2019. Net loss was $18.3 million for the first quarter of 2020, as compared to net loss of $79.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2019 and net loss of $5.4 million for the first quarter of 2019. EBITDA, as adjusted, was $33.8 million for the first quarter of 2020, as compared to $47.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2019 and $50.2 million for the first quarter of 2019. Loss before taxes was $8.8 million as compared to loss before taxes of $75.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2019 and income before taxes of $3.6 million for the first quarter of 2019.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $38.1 million in the first quarter of 2020, as compared with $37.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 and $43.5 million in the first quarter of 2019. The year over year reduction was driven primarily by aggressive cost reductions and improved efficiencies it has executed. The company also recorded additional restructuring charges of $1.2 million.
Contract Operations Segment
Contract operations revenue in the first quarter of 2020 was $94.8 million, a 2% decrease from fourth quarter of 2019 revenue of $96.5 million and an 11% increase from first quarter of 2019 revenue of $85.7 million.
Contract operations gross margin in the first quarter of 2020 was $63.3 million, a 3% increase from the fourth quarter of 2019 gross margin of $61.6 million and an 11% increase from the first quarter of 2019 gross margin of $57.1 million. Gross margin percentage in the first quarter of 2020 was 67%, as compared with 64% in the fourth quarter of 2019 and 67% in the first quarter of 2019.
Aftermarket Services Segment
Aftermarket services revenue in the first quarter of 2020 was $27.9 million, a 24% decrease from fourth quarter of 2019 revenue of $36.9 million and a 2% increase from first quarter of 2019 revenue of $27.3 million.
Aftermarket services gross margin in the first quarter of 2020 was $6.7 million, a 26% decrease from the fourth quarter of 2019 gross margin of $9.1 million and a 2% increase from the first quarter of 2019 gross margin of $6.6 million. Gross margin percentage in the first quarter of 2020 was 24%, as compared with 25% in the fourth quarter of 2019 and 24% in the first quarter of 2019.
Revenue decline was driven by the typical seasonality that we see during the first quarter along with some logistical challenges that arose late in the quarter due to COVID-19 travel and supply chain restrictions.
Product Sales Segment
Product sales revenue in the first quarter of 2020 was $87.7 million, a 37% decrease from fourth quarter of 2019 revenue of $139.3 million, and a 63% decrease from first quarter of 2019 revenue of $238.4 million.
Product sales gross margin in the first quarter of 2020 was $3.2 million, a 73% decrease from fourth quarter of 2019 gross margin of $12.0 million and an 89% decrease as compared to the first quarter of 2019 gross margin of $28.9 million. Gross margin percentage in the first quarter of 2020 was 4%, as compared with 9% in the fourth quarter of 2019 and 12% in the first quarter of 2019.
Revenue declined sequentially driven by the low backlog we had entering the quarter. Margin declined sequentially driven by negative mix and expected under absorption costs.
Product sales backlog was $648.3 million at March 31, 2020, as compared to $278.0 million at December 31, 2019 and $553.5 million at March 31, 2019. Product sales bookings for the first quarter of 2020 were $458.0 million, resulting in a book-to-bill ratio of 522%. This compares to bookings of $108.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2019 and bookings of $86.2 million for the first quarter of 2019.

These statements may include words such as "guidance," "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "forecast," "project," "plan," "intend," "believe," "confident," "may," "should," "can have," "likely," "future" and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events. Examples of forward-looking information in this release include, but are not limited to: Exterran's financial and operational strategies and ability to successfully effect those strategies; Exterran's expectations regarding future economic and market conditions; the expected impact of COVID-19 and oil price declines on Exterran's business; Exterran's financial and operational outlook and ability to fulfill that outlook; demand for Exterran's products and services and growth opportunities for those products and services; and statements regarding industry activity levels and infrastructure build-out opportunities.
These forward-looking statements rely on a number of assumptions concerning future events and are subject to a number of uncertainties and factors, many of which are outside Exterran's control, which could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements. As a result, any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or results. While Exterran believes that the assumptions concerning future events are reasonable, it cautions that there are inherent difficulties in predicting certain important factors that could impact the future performance or results of its business. Among the factors that could cause results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements are: conditions in the oil and natural gas industry, including a sustained imbalance in the level of supply or demand for oil or natural gas or a sustained low price of oil or natural gas, which could depress or reduce the demand or pricing for Exterran's natural gas compression and oil and natural gas production and processing equipment and services; reduced profit margins or the loss of market share resulting from competition or the introduction of competing technologies by other companies; economic or political conditions in the countries in which Exterran does business, including civil developments such as uprisings, riots, terrorism, kidnappings, violence associated with drug cartels, legislative changes and the expropriation, confiscation or nationalization of property without fair compensation; risks associated with natural disasters, pandemics and other public health crisis, and other catastrophic events outside of Exterran's control, including the continued spread and impact of, and the response to, the COVID-19 pandemic; changes in currency exchange rates, including the risk of currency devaluations by foreign governments, and restrictions on currency repatriation; risks associated with cyber-based attacks or network security breaches; changes in international trade relationships, including the imposition of trade restrictions or tariffs relating to any materials or products (such as aluminum and steel) used in the operation of Exterran's business; risks associated with Exterran's operations, such as equipment defects, equipment malfunctions, environmental discharges and natural disasters; the risk that counterparties will not perform their obligations under their contracts with Exterran or other changes that could impact Exterran's ability to recover its fixed asset investment; the financial condition of Exterran's customers; Exterran's ability to timely and cost-effectively obtain components necessary to conduct its business; employment and workforce factors, including Exterran's ability to hire, train and retain key employees; Exterran's ability to implement its business and financial objectives, including: (i) winning profitable new business, (ii) timely and cost-effective execution of projects, (iii) enhancing or maintaining Exterran's asset utilization, particularly with respect to its fleet of compressors and other assets, (iv) integrating acquired businesses, (v) generating sufficient cash to satisfy Exterran's operating needs, existing capital commitments and other contractual cash obligations, including Exterran's debt obligations, and (vi) accessing the financial markets at an acceptable cost; Exterran's ability to accurately estimate its costs and time required under its fixed price contracts; liability related to the use of Exterran's products and services; changes in governmental safety, health, environmental or other regulations, which could require Exterran to make significant expenditures; and Exterran's level of indebtedness and ability to fund its business.
These forward-looking statements are also affected by the risk factors, forward-looking statements and challenges and uncertainties described in Exterran's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission available on the Securities and Exchange Commission's website www.sec.gov. A discussion of these risks is expressly incorporated by reference into this release. Except as required by law, Exterran expressly disclaims any intention or obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

| (1) Management evaluates the performance of each of the Company's segments based on gross margin. Total gross margin, a non-GAAP measure, is included as a supplemental disclosure because it is a primary measure used by our management to evaluate the results of revenue and cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization expense), which are key components of our operations. Management believes total gross margin is important supplemental information for investors because it focuses on the current performance of our operations and excludes the impact of the prior historical costs of the assets acquired or constructed that are utilized in those operations, the indirect costs associated with our SG&A activities, the impact of our financing methods, restatement related charges (recoveries), restructuring and other charges and income taxes. In addition, the inclusion of depreciation and amortization expense may not accurately reflect the costs required to maintain and replenish the operational usage of our assets and therefore may not portray the costs from current operating activity. | ||||||
| (2) Management believes EBITDA, as adjusted, is an important measure of operating performance because it allows management, investors and others to evaluate and compare our core operating results from period to period by removing the impact of our capital structure (interest expense from outstanding debt), asset base (depreciation and amortization), our subsidiaries' capital structure (non-cash gains or losses from foreign currency exchange rate changes on intercompany obligations), tax consequences, impairment charges, restatement related charges (recoveries), restructuring and other charges, expensed acquisition costs and other items. Management uses EBITDA, as adjusted, as supplemental measures to review current period operating performance, comparability measures and performance measures for period to period comparisons. In addition, the Company's compensation committee has used EBITDA, as adjusted, in evaluating the performance of the Company and management and in evaluating certain components of executive compensation, including performance-based annual incentive programs. | ||||||
| (3) The tax impacts of adjustments were based on the Company's statutory tax rates applicable to each item in the appropriate taxing jurisdictions. Using statutory tax rates for presentation of the non-GAAP measures allows a consistent basis for investors to understand financial performance of the Company across historical periods. The overall effective tax rate on adjustments was impacted by the inability to recognize tax benefits from charges in jurisdictions that are in cumulative-loss positions. | ||||||
| (4) Management believes adjusted net income (loss) from continuing operations and diluted adjusted net income (loss) from continuing operations per common share provides useful information to investors because it allows management, investors and others to evaluate and compare our core operating results from period to period by removing the impact of impairment charges, restructuring and other charges, restatement related charges (recoveries), expensed acquisition costs and other items not appropriately reflective of our core business. | ||||||
| (5) Diluted adjusted net income (loss) from continuing operations per common share, was computed using the two-class method to determine the net income (loss) per share for each class of common stock and participating security (certain of our restricted stock and restricted stock units) according to participation rights in undistributed earnings. | ||||||
