Manuel Sanchez, Telvent's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "I am very pleased that once again we have been able to deliver another strong quarter, maintaining our double-digit top and bottom line growth while improving the efficiency of the company. The integration of DTN is proceeding better than expected and it is providing the results and margin improvements that we had forecasted."
"I am also pleased to say that we are seeing a very strong momentum in the Smart Grid industry, where utilities are announcing new deployments and pilot programs on a daily basis, supported by governmental agencies and energy departments. These facts are encouraging and we continue to work hard on our Smart Grid solutions offering, that should allow us to consolidate new significant proposals with key customers in the forthcoming quarters," he concluded.
Business Highlights
Energy
Some of the most relevant projects signed during the second quarter of 2009 were as follows:
* Contract signed with Progress Energy, in the United States, to develop and implement an electric distribution system substation communications platform. The new platform will support the goals of the energy provider's comprehensive Distribution System Demand Response (DSDR) project. This project will help Progress Energy to deliver power more efficiently through equipment and technology enhancements to its existing electrical system. The real-time information available through this system will allow network operators to efficiently reduce load during periods of peak demand and maintain consistent voltage to all customers, avoiding outages without increasing peak generation capacity. * We carried out the successful operational start-up of our OASyS supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system on the Lan-Zheng-Chang oil pipeline, owned by Petrochina Company Limited and the longest oil pipeline in China. Telvent technology has already begun supervising the operation of this 2,100-kilometer pipeline, improving security and sustainability. Petrochina has invested more than EUR7.5 million in this project to gain real-time control of its oil pipeline operation. Telvent system will supply continuously updated information on pipeline status and operations that should not only increase pipeline security, but also efficiency and security of the Chinese petroleum company's petroleum extraction and transportation operations. * Contract signed with Consumers Energy to integrate Responder, Telvent's Smart Grid Outage Management system (OMS), with its new Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) technology. Based on this integration and testing of various AMI options, Consumers Energy, a Jackson, Michigan-based utility, will leverage intelligent meter data in Responder for enhanced network analysis and management, including outage prediction and restoration efforts. This software has been integrated with Consumers Energy's enterprise systems, including the work management systems that control mobile crew communications and the SAP customer service system.
Transportation
During the second quarter of 2009 some of the significant contracts signed were:
* Contract with the "I-95 Corridor" coalition, in the United States, to design, implement and operate a pilot system for real-time vehicle information and guidance for truck drivers (SmartPark), which will enable the truck fleet to obtain information via cell phone or Internet on the availability of parking places at rest stops and truck parking facilities. The system will include 40-65 parking lots throughout eight states. Implementation of this system is intended to improve safety and traffic flow and enable a reduction in fuel consumption. This project highlights Telvent's solid technology capability, in addition to enabling the development of a new business model focused on improving navigation systems. * The project to develop a new railway traffic management simulator for ADIF, the Spanish Administrator of Railway Infrastructure. Through the use of innovative simulation techniques, Telvent will recreate a complete railway control center in the training rooms equipped for this purpose. This innovative simulation system will not only reinforce personnel training and improve professional's training itineraries, but will also heighten security and efficiency levels, optimizing railway network management. Moreover, the project will benefit both ADIF personnel in facilitating their work, as well as the passengers that should enjoy a higher quality of service. * Contract with the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), in the United States, to provide telecommunications consulting services. Telvent will collaborate with FDOT in defining, expanding, operating and maintaining transportation department telecommunications infrastructure, in addition to ITS system planning and implementation activities.
Environment
During the second quarter of 2009, significant contracts signed were:
* Contract with South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) for the delivery of software, hardware, training, consultation and other services related to their existing OASyS SCADA system. Over the next several years, SFWMD plans to enhance, expand and upgrade their existing system, as well as increase the areas in which OASyS and associated applications are used in the District. * Contract with MeteoSwiss, the Federal Office of Meteorology and Climatology of Switzerland, to provide automatic weather stations for the next phase of SwissMetNet, the Swiss Meteorological Network. The objective of SwissMetNet project is to deploy a network of automatic stations throughout Switzerland that will provide accurate real time weather information. Telvent will provide MeteoSwiss with new generation Telmet320 automatic weather stations that will be fully integrated in the existing network, which also incorporates Telvent technology for the weather stations, as well as for the related data collection, processing, reporting and display systems. Additionally, Telvent is providing maintenance and support for these systems through a service level agreement.
In addition, Telvent DTN's environment information business is one of the largest for-profit weather services providers in the U.S. and leverages its investment in advanced weather technologies for agricultural and energy markets to serve the needs of other weather-sensitive markets. With 15,000 subscribers, it is widely regarded as a leading source of real-time weather information services across energy, aviation, transportation, recreation, construction and public safety markets. Telvent DTN plays a vital role in delivering proprietary weather services enabling a wide range of organizations such as the Tennessee Valley Electric Authority, GE Wind, the Iowa Department of Transportation, US Airways, AirMethods, and the PGA Tour to manage weather-related risks. Subscription retention rates approximate 87% in this segment.
Agriculture
All revenues in our Agriculture segment were generated in North America and principally arise from the sale, through subscriptions, of critical agricultural business information, weather and real-time market data solutions to top farm producers and agribusinesses. We continue to maintain subscription retention rates above 90% in our Agriculture segment, which exemplifies the resilience of this business segment.
We have over 680,000 subscribers to our business information in our Agriculture segment, including 56,000 of the largest farm producers who are paying for premium content, 12,000 originators including the top elevators, ethanol plants and feedlots, and over 1,000 agribusiness customers using our risk management platform. Our largest customers include Bunge, FC Stone, John Deere, Con Agra and Cargill along with the majority of the top corn and soybean producers in the United States.
During the first half of 2009, over 40 million bushels of grain were transacted though our grains trading portal -- DTN Marketspace -- between our over 900 agribusiness portal locations and our over 21,000 registered portal producers. DTN Marketspace, an innovative online grain marketing solution that connects buyers and sellers of local cash commodities, is rapidly expanding because it is able to provide a private, secure and reliable online marketplace through which agribusinesses and producers can make offers and place bids, manage their positions and contracts, as well as track specific transactions and deliver commitments that will enable an efficient management of their business. In addition, agribusinesses benefit from DTN Marketspace, as it reduces costs and improves margins, centralizing bids and offers, and improving customer service by offering producers a 24-hour per day, 7-days a week storefront.
Global Services
Significant contracts signed in the second quarter of 2009, among others, were:
* Contract signed with the Ministry for Public Administrations (MAP), in Spain, for complete outsourcing of the @signature systems. The contract includes monitoring, administration, management, operation and coordination services for all operational environments. * Contract with Vueling Airlines, in Spain, to renew and expand management services involving technological infrastructures, 24x7 monitoring services, system and application administration services. These services consist of expanding and integrating the company's new hardware and software assets to augment operational capability with a view to future integration of the Clickair systems as a result of the recent merger process of both companies.
Telvent acquired remaining 42% of Matchmind
In addition, in May 2009, we reached an agreement to purchase the remaining 42% of Matchmind. Telvent originally acquired 58% of Matchmind in October 2007, and retained the right to purchase the remaining 42% between 2009 and 2011. With this new agreement, Telvent will complete the full integration two years ahead of schedule. Matchmind is one of the leading companies, specializing in systems integration, IT outsourcing, and consulting services in Spain, with a headcount of more than 1,500 professionals, and an average revenue growth rate of 18% in the last 3 years.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP measures, including non-GAAP net income attributable to the parent company and EPS. Non-GAAP net income attributable to the parent company and EPS are adjusted from GAAP-based results to exclude certain costs and expenses that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results. Non-GAAP results are one of the primary indicators that our management uses for evaluating historical results and for planning and forecasting future periods. We believe that non-GAAP results provide consistency in our financial reporting, which enhances our investors' understanding of our current financial performance as well as our future prospects. Non-GAAP results should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of, GAAP results. Reconciliation of each Non-GAAP measure presented to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is provided in this release immediately following the unaudited consolidated financial statements.
The Company provides non-GAAP measures to give investors figures that are most comparable to those used by Management in its evaluation of historical results for planning and forecasting purposes. The adjustments represent the removal of GAAP impacts that Management is not able to forecast (such as JVs and mark-to-market of derivatives and hedged items), that generally have not impacted the Company's cash position in the period (such as stock compensation plan expenses and mark to market of derivatives and hedged items), or that Management believes are extraordinary in nature and thus should be removed from the GAAP results for comparative purposes. Below is an explanation of the nature of each of these adjustments and how Management uses the resulting non-GAAP measures in its management of the business:
-- Joint ventures: Telvent, during its normal course of business, and as is customary practice in its industry, participates in joint venture agreements in Spain to bid for and carry on some of its projects in the traffic, energy and environmental segments. These relationships are commonly referred to as "Union Temporal de Empresas" (UTEs). Such UTEs are established for commercial reasons, at the request of the client, and because they are sometimes required when bidding for government related work. A UTE (which is considered a "temporary consortium" under Spanish law) is a form of business cooperation used within the scope of public hiring, with no legal personality, that is established for a certain period of time, definite or indefinite, to carry out work, service or supply in Spain. The terms governing the functioning of a UTE are freely agreed to by the participants provided they are set out in the Articles of Association and conform to applicable law. UTEs are operated through a management committee, comprised of equal representation from each of the venture partners, which makes decisions about the joint venture's activities that have a significant effect on its success. As a result of the adoption of FIN 46R, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, in January 2004, these joint ventures were determined to be variable interest entities, as they have no equity, and transfer restrictions in the agreements establish a de facto agency relationship between all venture partners. For this reason, and applying quantitative criteria to determine which partner is the most closely associated with the joint venture, the Company consolidates, on a quarterly basis, the results of such UTEs. However, the Company believes it has no control over most of the joint ventures it consolidates, and therefore is unable to control or predict the results of the UTEs. The Company only has control over its portion of revenues and margins associated with the work it is carrying out through the UTE. In addition, the work carried out by other venture partners in the JV may sometimes be unrelated to Telvent's business, and thus we do not consider that such revenues should be included within Telvent's revenues. For these reasons, Management considers GAAP revenues and cost of revenues, excluding the revenues and cost of revenues attributable to other venture partners, and including revenues and cost of revenues from UTEs that are carried under the equity method. The resulting non-GAAP revenues, cost of revenues and gross margins are the closest indicators to the measures Management uses in its management of the business.
-- Mark to market of derivatives and hedged items: The Company enters into numerous forward exchange contracts to protect against fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates on long-term projects and anticipated future transactions. In addition, the Company enters into interest rate caps in order to manage interest rate risk on certain long-term variable rate financing arrangements. These transactions have been designated as cash flow hedges and are recorded at fair value in the Company's consolidated balance sheets, with the effective portion of changes in fair value recorded temporarily in equity (other comprehensive income). Such unrealized gains and losses are recognized in earnings, along with the related effects of the hedged item, once the forecasted transaction occurs (e.g. once foreign currency invoices are issued to clients or received from suppliers). Accounts receivables and payables (the "hedged items") denominated in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency using applicable quarter-end or year-end exchange rates, with variations recorded in earnings for each period. Due to the volume of forward exchange contracts and the number of currencies they cover, the Company does not estimate the unrealized gains and losses arising from the accounting entries required by SFAS 133 at each cut-off date. Rather, the Company estimates and manages exchange rate risk on a project-by-project basis, overseeing and predicting the real cash impact at the end of a project arising from such transactions (both caused by the hedged item and the derivative). For this reason, Management uses internally a non-GAAP measure which is equivalent to GAAP financial income/expense, but which excludes the unrealized gains and losses from recognizing derivatives at fair value and from recording hedged foreign currency receivables and payables at period-end exchange rates.
-- Stock and extraordinary variable compensation plan expenses: The Company has applied SFAS 123R to account for the share acquisition plan established by Abengoa with respect to Abengoa's shares. This plan has been accounted for as an equity award plan under SFAS 123R, and is being treated similar to a stock option plan. A valuation of the plan was performed at the grant date and the corresponding non-cash compensation expense is being recognized over the requisite service period of five years and six months. In addition, the Company has an extraordinary variable compensation plan for members of its senior management team, to be paid in cash at the end of a five year period, based on the accomplishment of certain objectives. The compensation only vests and becomes payable after the end of the fifth year of the plan. Compensation expense is recorded under GAAP for these two plans. The Company provides a non-GAAP measure which excludes the impact of such plans, as it believes it is useful information to investors because of the extraordinary nature of the plans and the fact that no cash outlay is required from Telvent on the Abengoa stock purchase plan.
-- Amortization of intangibles arising on acquisitions: The Company records intangible assets during the purchase price allocation process performed on acquisitions. These include customer contract (backlog) and relationships, purchased software technology, trade names and in-process research and development, among others. Such intangible assets are amortized, for GAAP purposes, over their estimated useful lives. When evaluating an acquisition, the Company does not consider the non-cash amortization expense arising from these intangibles in its valuation. Therefore, the Company periodically excludes such impact from its depreciation and amortization (D&A) line to arrive at non-GAAP D&A, which it believes to be useful information for investors.
