NEW YORK, March 08, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HC2 Holdings, Inc. (“HC2”) (NYSE MKT:HCHC), a diversified holding company that focuses on acquiring, operating and growing businesses that it considers to be under or fairly valued, today announced its consolidated results for the fourth quarter and full year 2016, which ended on December 31, 2016.

“We closed out a year of very strong performance in 2016, with steadily improving Adjusted EBITDA from our operating subsidiaries, as each achieved significant individual milestones and executed transactions during the year that contributed to their respective successes,” said Philip Falcone, HC2’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Among the 2016 highlights: DBM Global further positioned itself for continued growth through the accretive cash acquisitions of the detailing and building information modeling business of PDC Global and of BDS VirCon, and finished the year with a record backlog of projects and solid pipeline of opportunities; Global Marine continued to experience solid performance from its maintenance business, including revenue contributions from the acquisition of CWind, and better than expected performance from joint ventures; American Natural Gas gained a national footprint through the acquisitions of Questar Fueling Company and Constellation CNG; Pansend Life Sciences company R2 Dermatology received FDA approval for the R2 Dermal Cooling System and most recently, MediBeacon completed its successful Pilot Two clinical study of its groundbreaking kidney function monitor; in our insurance business we merged United Teacher Associates Insurance Company and Continental General Insurance Company into one entity, creating operational and administrative efficiencies and meaningfully improving the regulatory capital efficiency of the business, and ended the year with approximately $2.0 billion in GAAP assets and $76.9 million in statutory surplus; and PTGi-ICS experienced a record year of Adjusted EBITDA growth.”

Mr. Falcone continued, “At the corporate level during 2016, we strengthened our executive management team, and focused on managing the capital structure to increase financial flexibility.  As we continue to seek out opportunities to acquire controlling interests in stable cash flowing businesses, we believe we are well positioned to continue generating long-term value for shareholders.”

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2016 Financial Highlights

Net Revenue: For the fourth quarter of 2016, HC2 recorded consolidated total net revenue of $454.0 million, an increase of $40.9 million or 9.9% as compared to the third quarter of 2016, and an increase of $93.5 million, or 25.9% as compared to the year-ago quarter, primarily driven by growth in the Marine Services and Telecom segments, as well as contribution from the Company’s Continental Insurance business, which was acquired in December 2015.

HC2 recorded consolidated total net revenue of $1,558.1 million for the full year ended December 31, 2016, an increase of $437.3 million, or 39.0%, as compared to $1,120.8 million for the full year 2015, due to substantial growth in the Telecom segment, a year-over-year increase in the Marine Services segment, due primarily to the addition of CWind revenues, as well as contributions from the Insurance segment.

Net Income / (Loss): For the fourth quarter of 2016, HC2 reported a Net (Loss) attributable to common and participating preferred stockholders of ($67.3) million or ($1.62) per fully diluted share, as compared to Net (Loss) of ($7.5) million or ($0.20) per fully diluted share for the third quarter of 2016, and a Net (Loss) of ($12.5) million or ($0.41) per fully diluted share compared to the year ago quarter.  Fourth quarter 2016 Net (Loss) attributable to common and participating preferred stockholders included a ($47.6) million or ($1.15) per fully diluted share non-cash valuation allowance recorded against HC2's deferred tax asset. 

For the full year ended December 31, 2016, HC2 reported a Net (Loss) attributable to common and participating preferred stock holders of ($105.4) million or ($2.83) per fully diluted share, as compared to a Net (Loss) of ($39.9) million or ($1.50) per fully diluted share for the full year 2015. The year-over-year decline was primarily due to the fourth quarter non-cash valuation allowance noted above. 

Adjusted EBITDA: For the fourth quarter of 2016, Adjusted EBITDA for “Core Operating Subsidiaries”, which includes HC2's Construction (formerly Manufacturing), Marine Services, Energy (formerly Utilities) and Telecom segments, was a combined $37.9 million, as compared to $31.5 million in the third quarter of 2016 and $26.5 million in the year-ago quarter. Core Operating Subsidiary results for the fourth quarter were driven primarily by solid performance in the Construction and Marine Services segments. 

For the full year ended December 31, 2016, Adjusted EBITDA for Core Operating Subsidiaries was $109.1 million, as compared to $97.1 million for the full year 2015, the increase was driven primarily by the Construction, Telecom and Energy segments.  For the fourth quarter of 2016, Total Adjusted EBITDA (excluding the Insurance segment), which includes results from Core Operating Subsidiaries, Early-Stage and Other, and Non-Operating Corporate segments, was $26.5 million, as compared to $18.2 million in the third quarter of 2016 and $12.3 million for the year-ago quarter.  
For the full year ended December 31, 2016, Total Adjusted EBITDA (excluding the Insurance Segment) was $60.2 million, as compared to $52.1 million for the full year 2015.

For the fourth quarter of 2016, Adjusted EBITDA was $20.7 million, driven by strong performance, including better-than bid-performance on key projects in the Pacific & Midwest regions, as compared to $14.5 million for the third quarter and $14.6 million for the year-ago quarter.  For the full year ended December 31, 2016, Adjusted EBITDA was $59.9 million, as compared to $52.0 million for the full year 2015. 

Backlog at the end of the fourth quarter was a record $503 million, as compared to approximately $320 million in the prior-quarter.  DBM Global said it continues to see a number of large opportunities in the commercial sector totaling approximately $400 million in potential new projects that could be awarded over the next several quarters, which are not reflected in the $503 million backlog noted above. These projects include a number of new sporting arenas or stadiums, as well as new healthcare facilities and commercial office buildings.

Marine Services - For the fourth quarter of 2016, Global Marine reported Net Income of $8.7 million, as compared to $8.7 million for the third quarter and $2.9 million for the year-ago quarter.  For the full year ended December 31, 2016, Net Income was $17.4 million, as compared to $20.9 million for the full year 2015.

For the fourth quarter of 2016, Adjusted EBITDA was $14.8 million, as compared to $14.1 million for the third quarter and $10.6 million for the year-ago quarter.  The improved performance in the quarter was driven in part by continued strong performance from the Global Marine joint ventures, in particular its Huawei Marine and SBSS, and contribution from Global Marine’s recent re-entry into the offshore power market.  For the full year ended December 31, 2016, Adjusted EBITDA was $41.2 million, as compared to $42.1 million for the full year 2015.

Energy - For the fourth quarter of 2016, American Natural Gas (ANG) reported a Net (Loss) of ($0.06) million, as compared to Net Income of $0.03 million for the third quarter and a Net Income of $0.06 million for the year-ago quarter.  For the full year ended December 31, 2016, Net Income (Loss) was $0.01 million, as compared to ($0.27) million for the full year 2015.  For the fourth quarter of 2016, Adjusted EBITDA was $0.87 million, as compared to $0.73 million for the third quarter and $0.27 million for the year-ago quarter.  For the full year ended December 31, 2016, Adjusted EBITDA was $2.54 million, as compared to $0.87 million for the full year 2015, due primarily to an increase in the number of fueling stations owned and/or operated. 

ANG currently owns and/or operates approximately 40 natural gas fueling stations, including stations under development, in 13 states and is focused on expanding the station footprint through both internal / organic transactions, as well as various M&A opportunities.  During the fourth quarter, ANG acquired 18 compressed natural gas fueling stations as a result of its acquisition of Questar Fueling Company and Constellation CNG providing ANG with a true, nationwide footprint.

Telecommunications - For the fourth quarter of 2016, Net Income (Loss) for PTGi-ICS was ($2.6) million, as compared to $1.8 million for the third quarter and $3.1 million for the year-ago quarter.  For the full year ended December 31, 2016, Net Income was $1.4 million compared to $2.8 million for the full year 2015.

The fourth quarter of 2016 marked the seventh consecutive quarter of positive Adjusted EBITDA for PTGi-ICS, driven primarily by growth in wholesale traffic volumes, in part delivered by the changing regulatory environment throughout the European market, combined with continued business growth in the Middle East region. For the full year ended December 31, 2016, Adjusted EBITDA was $5.6 million, as compared to $2.0 million for the full year 2015.

Insurance - As of December 31, 2016, the Insurance companies had approximately $76.9 million of statutory surplus and $2.0 billion in total GAAP assets.

HC2 Corporate - During the fourth quarter, the Company reduced the cumulative outstanding accreted value of the Company’s Series A, A-1 and A-2 Convertible Participating Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”) to approximately $30.0 million from $42.7 million at the beginning of the fourth quarter.  Since the end of September 30, 2014, on a gross basis, the Company has reduced over $92 million in preferred obligations, debt and pension liabilities at the corporate and subsidiary level. In addition, during the fourth quarter, the company received $17.5 million from DBM Global as part of the Company’s tax sharing agreement with DBM Global. For full year 2016, the Company received $39.9 million from DBM Global as part of the tax sharing agreement.

Recent Developments

Construction - As announced on December 29, 2016, DBM Global paid a cash dividend of $2.59 per share on January 23, 2017 to DBM Global stockholders of record at the close of business on January 9, 2017, of which HC2 received $9.2 million of the total $10.0 million dividend payout.

Marine Services - On January 18, 2017, GMSL announced that it was awarded a five-year contract extension for the Atlantic Cable Maintenance Agreement (“ACMA”).  The new contract began January 1, 2017, and runs for five years, through to December 2021.  Global Marine currently delivers maintenance support in three of the six maintenance zone agreements globally.  In addition, GMSL recently entered into a five-year operating lease agreement, with various options to purchase, the Maersk Recorder (now renamed the CS Recorder), a primarily telecom installation vessel capable of undertaking operations in offshore wind and oil and gas, to support expected growth in Huawei Marine joint venture.  The CS Recorder replaces the Cable Innovator, which is now supporting the GMSL’s seven year, North American Zone (“NAZ”) maintenance contract announced last year.

Pansend Life Sciences - On March 2, 2017, MediBeacon™ Inc., announced that it had successfully completed a real-time, point of care renal function clinical study on subjects with impaired kidney function at Washington University in St. Louis.  During the Pilot Two clinical study, kidney function was measured in subjects ranging from normal to impaired Stage 4 Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD).  The Company notes that this is a significant milestone that further reinforces its confidence in the investment in MediBeacon and its ability to use innovative technology to improve patient care and reduce costs to the healthcare system.

HC2 Corporate - On January 26, 2017, the Company announced the pricing of $55 million aggregate principal amount of 11.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2019 (the “Notes”), representing an increase from a previously announced proposed offering of $45 million aggregate principal amount.  The Company used the net proceeds from the issuance to refinance the 11.000% Senior Secured Bridge Note due 2019 (the “Bridge Note”) issued by HC2 Holdings 2, Inc. (“HC2 2”), for working capital for the Company and its subsidiaries and for general corporate purposes, including the financing of potential future acquisitions and investments.  The Notes were issued at an issue price of 100.0% plus accrued interest from December 1, 2016.  The offering closed on January 31, 2017.  The net proceeds of the issuance of the Bridge Note were used by HC2 2 to purchase convertible debt of ANG, which is 49.9% owned by HC2, and for general corporate purposes.  ANG used such cash proceeds, together with available capacity under its existing credit facilities, to fund the acquisition of Questar Fueling Company and Constellation CNG, LLC, in two separate transactions, which closed on December 16, 2016 and December 20, 2016, respectively.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this release, HC2 refers to certain financial measures that are not presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), including Core Operating Subsidiary Adjusted EBITDA, Total Adjusted EBITDA (excluding the Insurance segment) and Adjusted EBITDA for its operating segments.  Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA measures provide investors with meaningful information for gaining an understanding of the Company’s results as it is frequently used by the financial community to provide insight into an organization’s operating trends and facilitates comparisons between peer companies, because interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and the other items for which adjustments are made as noted in the definition of Adjusted EBITDA below can differ greatly between organizations as a result of differing capital structures and tax strategies. In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA measures in evaluating certain of the Company’s segments performance because they eliminate the effects of considerable amounts of non-cash depreciation and amortization and items not within the control of the Company’s operations managers. While management believes that these non-GAAP measurements are useful as supplemental information, such adjusted results are not intended to replace our GAAP financial results and should be read together with HC2’s results reported under GAAP.

Management defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude the impact of depreciation and amortization; amortization of equity method fair value adjustments at acquisition; (gain) loss on sale or disposal of assets; lease termination costs; asset impairment expense; loss on early extinguishment or restructuring of debt; interest expense; gain (loss) on contingent consideration; other income (expense), net; foreign currency transaction gain (loss) included in cost of revenue; income tax (benefit) expense; gain (loss) from discontinued operations; non-controlling interest; bonus to be settled in equity; share-based compensation expense and acquisition related and other non-recurring items. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) is included in the financial tables at the end of this release.

Management recognizes that using Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure has inherent limitations as an analytical tool as compared to net income (loss) or other GAAP financial measures, as these non-GAAP measures exclude certain items, including items that are recurring in nature, which may be meaningful to investors.

As a result of the exclusions, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation and do not purport to be alternatives to net income (loss) or other GAAP financial measures as a measure of our operating performance.
