First Quarter 2019 Financial Performance Summary: (comparisons to prior year period)

  • Total revenues were $23.0 million compared to $22.0 million;
  • Gross profit was $7.7 million compared to $6.6 million;
  • Gross margin was 33.6% compared to 29.9%;
  • Consolidated net loss was $(3.0) million compared to $(3.3) million;
  • Loss per basic share was $(0.11) compared to $(0.11) per basic share;
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $(2.0) million compared to $(2.7) million;
  • Cash and cash equivalents were $0.8 million and restricted cash was $0.5 million at March 31, 2019;
  • Power and Electromechanical (P&EM) segment unaudited backlog was $19.6 million at March 31, 2019, compared to $21.8 million at December 31, 2018; and,
  • Energy segment unaudited backlog was $13.4 million at March 31, 2019, compared to $15.7 million at December 31, 2018.

"Our first quarter results reflect continued strength in our P&EM segment and the fruits of business development initiatives in our Energy segment focused on the buildout of energy services infrastructure in the U.S.," said William J. Clough, president and CEO of CUI Global. "In our Power & Electromechanical segment, the continuation of strong order patterns drove higher direct sales and gross margin. We also acquired a 21.4% ownership share of Virtual Power Systems (VPS) to capitalize on the growing software-defined platform opportunity in data centers areas beyond power utilization.

"In our Energy segment, we are seeing demand for engineering and integration services in North America as operators and engineering, procurement, and construction companies undertake infrastructure buildouts to support the U.S.' position as the top, global exporter of oil and natural gas. Our new, larger facility in Houston, a growing reputation for technical and operational excellence, and our inclusion on more vendor-approved lists has expanded our funnel of new award opportunities. In the U.K. we are sustaining our push into the biomethane market that was catalyzed last year by the RHI incentive scheme while also aggressively pursuing pre-sales opportunities ahead of CAPEX spend by in-country gas network operators. Subsequent to the close of the quarter, we received our first orders for GasPT from SAMSON AG to be used for previously untapped industrial applications, and are encouraged by our joint continued business development activities."

Concluded, Mr. Clough, "Looking ahead, multiple avenues for Energy segment revenue developed over the past two years, together with continued strong performance from our P&EM segment, keep us on a path to long-term growth. We have the technology and business development foundation to pursue our growth goals and ensure our long-term success."

Financial Accounting Standard Board Accounting Standard Update 2016-02

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standard Board Accounting Standard Update 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessee recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet, at the beginning of fiscal 2019.  As of March 31, 2019, $7.4 million was included with non-current assets, $1.0 million with current liabilities and $6.6 million with non-current liabilities, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as a result of the new lease standard. Additionally, the Company recorded a $2.9 million adjustment to accumulated deficit to recognize the deferred gain that was originally recorded as part of the December 2018 sale/leaseback of the Tualatin headquarters.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income (loss) are non-GAAP financial measures and are reconciled in the table below. These non-GAAP financial measures do not represent funds available for management's discretionary use and is not intended to represent cash flow from operations. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income (loss) should not be construed as a substitute for net loss or as a better measure of liquidity than cash flow from operating activities, which is determined in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income (loss) exclude components that are significant in understanding and assessing the company's results of operations and cash flows. In addition, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income (loss) are not terms defined by GAAP and as a result our measure of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income (loss) might not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. However, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income (loss) are used by management to evaluate, assess and benchmark the company's operational results and the company believes EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Net Income (loss) are relevant and useful information which are often reported and widely used by analysts, investors and other interested parties in the Company's industry. Accordingly, the Company is disclosing this information to permit a more comprehensive analysis of its operating performance, to provide an additional measure of performance and liquidity and to provide additional information with respect to the Company's ability to meet future debt service, capital expenditure and working capital requirements. Adjusted Net Income (loss) eliminates the amortization expenses associated with intangible assets acquired with Orbital Gas Systems Limited and CUI-Canada, as well as non-cash expenses associated with stock and stock options for compensation, royalties and services during the period and impairment of goodwill and intangible assets.
