FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Feb. 19, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SEACOR Holdings Inc. (NYSE:CKH) (the “Company”) today announced its results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2020:

  • Net income attributable to stockholders for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 was $10.8 million ($0.52 per diluted share) compared with a net loss of $(1.9) million ($(0.10) per diluted share) for the quarter ended December 31, 2019.

  • Operating income for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 was $13.3 million compared with $2.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2019.

  • “Cash Earnings” for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 were $23.0 million compared with $18.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2019.

The Company uses the non-GAAP financial measures "Cash Earnings" and OIBDA in this release; a reconciliation to their closest U.S. GAAP measure is included in "Use of non-GAAP Financial Measures" in this release.

The "Operating Discussion" below is a comparison of results for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 with the prior year quarter ended December 31, 2019.

Operating Discussion

Ocean Transportation & Logistics Services - Operating income and OIBDA were $12.6 million and $22.8 million, respectively, in the current year quarter compared with $7.6 million and $17.8 million, respectively.

The current year quarter benefited from a $7.8 million reduction in dry-docking costs in addition to the related out-of-service time.  These benefits were partially offset by lower operating results for one SEA-Vista vessel due to the commencement of a lower margin long-term multiyear bareboat charter and weaker operating results for SEACOR Island Lines, Seabulk Towing and the Company's dry bulk carrier fleet.

The COVID-19 pandemic continued to negatively impact the performance of SEACOR Island Lines and Seabulk Towing.  Demand for freight into the Bahamas and the Turks & Caicos and ship calls into harbor towing's port network rebounded from the lows earlier in the year, but activity remained below pre-pandemic levels.  Moreover, in the prior year quarter, SEACOR Island Lines benefited from higher freight demand as a result of Hurricane Dorian relief activity.  Operating results for the dry bulk carrier fleet were lower following the scrapping of one U.S.-flag bulk carrier in October 2020.

Inland Transportation & Logistics Services - Operating income and OIBDA were $9.8 million and $16.5 million, respectively, in the current year quarter compared with $1.4 million and $7.5 million, respectively.

Barge pool earnings improved due to strong soybean exports and favorable operating conditions resulting in higher freight rates and higher utilization.  Operating results from the terminal business improved due to increased throughput volumes at the Company's dry bulk facilities as a result of new contracts primarily supporting fertilizer customers.  SEACOR AMH, the Company's container on barge operation, also posted improved results primarily due to an increase in container movements and a reduction in operating costs following the internalization of towing and stevedore activities.

Fleeting operations suffered from a reduction in liquid tank barge activity in the St. Louis region due to lower demand for petroleum products.

Witt O’Brien’s - Operating income and OIBDA were $0.5 million and $0.8 million in the current year quarter compared with an operating loss and negative OIBDA of $(0.7) million and $(0.5) million, respectively.  The improvement was primarily due to an expansion of support for the USVI recovery program and new contract wins in response to the COVID-19 pandemic partially offset by bad debt expense related to a dispute with a subcontractor.

Corporate Expenses - Corporate expenses were $4.1 million higher primarily due to advisory and legal fees associated with the proposed merger transaction with American Industrial Partners.

Capital Commitments - The Company’s capital commitments as of December 31, 2020 were $43.1 million and included four U.S.-flag harbor tugs, one inland river towboat, other equipment, and vessel and terminal improvements.  Subsequent to December 31, 2020, the Company committed to purchase other property and equipment for $0.2 million.

Liquidity and Debt - During the current year quarter, the Company drew $20.0 million on its revolving credit facility, which was repaid in January 2021.

As of December 31, 2020, the Company’s balances of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, restricted cash equivalents, and marketable securities totaled $74.4 million.  As of December 31, 2020, total outstanding debt was $277.0 million, and the Company had $205.0 million of borrowing capacity under its credit facilities.

Equity - As of December 31, 2020, the total shares outstanding were 20,472,853.

Tender Offer - On December 18, 2020, Safari Merger Subsidiary, Inc., a Delaware corporation and an affiliate of American Industrial Partners (“Purchaser”), commenced a tender offer to acquire all of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock at a price per share of $41.50, net to the holder in cash, without interest.

Use of non-GAAP Financial Measures

The information furnished in this release includes non-GAAP financial measures that differ from measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, including OIBDA and Cash Earnings.

The Company defines OIBDA as operating income (loss) plus depreciation and amortization.  The Company includes maintenance and repair costs, including major overhauls and regulatory dry-dockings, and gains or losses (or impairments) on asset dispositions in OIBDA.  The Company defines Cash Earnings as OIBDA further adjusted to exclude the amortization of non-cash deferred gains and amounts attributable to its minority partner in SEA-Vista as well as the gain or loss associated with marking-to-market securities held for investment, accrued net cash expense associated with interest on debt obligations, and the Company’s estimate of cash taxes.  Other companies may calculate OIBDA and Cash Earnings differently than the Company, which may limit their usefulness as comparative measures.  In addition, each of these measures does not necessarily represent funds available for discretionary use and are not measures of the Company’s ability to fund its cash needs.  OIBDA and Cash Earnings are each financial metrics used by management (i) as a supplemental internal measure for planning and forecasting overall expectations and for evaluating actual results against such expectations; (ii) as a criteria for annual incentive bonuses paid to Company officers and other shore-based employees; and (iii) to compare to the OIBDA and Cash Earnings of other companies when evaluating potential acquisitions.  In addition, the Company believes Cash Earnings is meaningful to investors because it assists in evaluating the Company’s results of operations and net cash generated by business activities across previous and subsequent accounting periods and to better understand the long-term performance of the Company.  The Company views OIBDA and Cash Earnings as measures of operating performance not liquidity.

The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The following tables reconcile these non-GAAP measures to their most closely comparable U.S. GAAP measures (amounts in thousands, except per share data).
