In the first quarter 2016 Hexagon Composites generated NOK 291.6 (401.6) million in operating income and made an operating profit before depreciation (EBITDA) of NOK 18.6 (52.9) million. Operating profit (EBIT) was NOK 3.2 (39.5) million and profit/loss before tax came to NOK -2.6 (53.3) million.
Operating results in the first quarter were impacted positively by a 17% growth in revenues within the Low-Pressure Cylinders segment versus the same period last year. However weak sales volumes for Mobile Pipeline™ solutions has hampered overall profitability for the Group, within the High-Pressure Cylinders segment. The cost initiatives executed in 2015 are being realized in 2016.
Key developments
- Profitability impacted by weak Mobile Pipeline™ sales.
- Solid growth in Low-Pressure Cylinders.
- The Group received NOK 667 million from a private placement of new shares and entered a strategic cooperation agreement with Mitsui & Co., Ltd.
- Awarded extension of long-term agreement with New Flyer Industries for the North American transit bus market.
- Acquisition of 67 % of a Brazilian entity to pursue fuel systems opportunities for transit buses and heavy-duty trucks in South America and Africa.
- Awarded a significant Mobile Pipeline™ order for distribution of biomethane in the UK.
- Commenced a business viability study of a proposed joint venture with Mitsui & Co. and Toray Industries, to manufacture and sell high-pressure cylinders for hydrogen vehicles in Japan.
SEGMENT RESULTS
HIGH-PRESSURE CYLINDERS CNG AND CHG
HEXAGON LINCOLN AND HEXAGON RAUFOSS
Hexagon Composites is the global market leader in high-pressure composite cylinders for compressed natural gas (CNG) and compressed hydrogen gas (CHG).
Operating income for the High-Pressure Cylinders segment declined by 42% to NOK 172.7 (299.4) million in the first quarter of 2016 compared with the same period in 2015. Results were impacted primarily by weak Mobile Pipeline™ sales.
Sales volumes versus the same period last year in the North American transit bus market grew 21%, while heavyduty and refuse trucks sales were somewhat softer. Rest of the world transit bus markets have experienced a slower start to the year than in 2015. The North American market opportunities for the rest of 2016 remain promising. While the oil prices have increased significantly since the beginning of the year, this has not yet materialized in improved price spread between CNG and diesel. The environmental value proposition of CNG continues to stimulate demand especially within larger fleets and urban applications.
The European Light-Duty Vehicle business was profitable in the first quarter, despite continued low volumes, as a result of the restructured operating model in force since the end of 2015. The commencement of volumes towards two new car models in the second half of 2016 and 2017 respectively keeps the outlook promising.
Sales volumes for Mobile Pipeline™ were substantially lower than both the same period last year and the fourth quarter of 2015. This is mainly due to factors having impacted the North and Latin American markets. Order backlog, however, has again started to grow mainly for deliveries in the second half of the year. These include projects aimed at developing the use of CNG within the US locomotive industry as an alternative to mainly diesel powered engines and the transport of biomethane in Europe for power generation using our SMARTSTORE® product.
Hexagon Lincoln, Mitsui & Co. and Toray Industries have agreed to conduct a business viability study of a joint venture targeting the hydrogen fuel-cell passenger car market in Japan. In addition, the Company is working on several hydrogen projects with passenger car OEMs, remote back-up power, transit bus and locomotive applications globally. Short term revenue in our Hydrogen business unit will remain modest.
EBIT in the first quarter for the High-Pressure Cylinders segment declined to NOK -17.5 (23.9) million mainly due to lower sales within the Mobile Pipeline™ business unit.
LOW-PRESSURE CYLINDERS LPG
HEXAGON RAGASCO
Hexagon Composites is the global market leader in composite cylinders for propane (LPG).
Operating income for the Low-Pressure Cylinders segment increased to NOK 121.8 (104.0) million compared with the same period in 2015.
The Company is steadily realizing its strategic efforts to take market share from steel cylinders. With a premium product which offers considerable advantages over steel cylinders in terms of weight, safety and design, the Company is optimizing the market roll-out with a geographic approach. The first half of the year is traditionally strong in our European markets, but sales for this quarter also include African and South American markets.
Hexagon Ragasco has implemented several investments that greatly enhance the Company's ability to offer unique and customized designs, dimensions and branding possibilities to its customers. Furthermore, Hexagon Ragasco is leveraging financing available through export credit agencies. Both of these strategic measures are contributing to further sales growth in the Low-Pressure Cylinders segment.
Production uptime was good during the quarter, balanced with optimized manning levels. Investments completed in 2015 have effectively increased capacity within the plant by allowing for faster cycle production times when required.
EBIT for the Low-Pressure Cylinders segment increased to NOK 21.4 (17.5) million in the first quarter following solid growth versus the comparative period last year.
THE GROUP
Hexagon Composites ASA had a net profit after tax of NOK 0.4 (37.6) million in the first quarter after negative foreign exchange effects recorded in other financial items of NOK 3 million.
In general, a strong USD relative to NOK has a positive impact on Group equity due to our US operations. For our European business, a strong EUR and USD relative to NOK has a positive impact on our operating results since export sales are primarily invoiced in EUR or USD while our cost base is primarily in NOK.
At quarter-end the statement of financial position totaled NOK 1,887.3 (1,233.4) million and the Group's equity ratio was 58.3% (44.4%). The expansion in assets and equity was related primarily to the receipts from the private placement at the end of the quarter. The infusion of capital significantly reduces the Company's leverage and allows it to pursue organic and non-organic M&A opportunities as they arise.
AFTER BALANCE SHEET DATE
In the beginning of April the Company paid down NOK 388 million of outstanding bank loans.
There have been no other significant events after the balance sheet date not previously described in this report.
OUTLOOK
While Group profitability is still weak due to negative results within the High-Pressure Cylinders segment the Board is satisfied with the current and longer-term value proposition that alternative and cleaner energy represents for this segment. The Board views positively the continued market penetration in Low-Pressure Cylinders.
The Mobile Pipeline™ business remains challenging in the first half of 2016. However, current order inflow points to a healthy recovery in the second half. The somewhat soft first quarter in CNG Automotive Heavy-Duty Trucks segments is not currently a concern as it is balanced by the pattern of order call-offs from our main customers, the improved competitive landscape and the cyclical pattern of transit bus orders especially in the rest of the world markets. Revenues are also expected to be stimulated through activities from the recently acquired Brazilian enterprise. The market prospects for CNG Light-Duty Vehicles are improving, and with a rationalized cost base this business is expected to improve significantly.
The positive momentum around our Hydrogen business unit, while not currently on a scale to realize profit, will lay the path towards generating significant medium and long term growth, and justify the continued focus on development of our products and activities in this highgrowth market niche. The announced business viability study of a joint venture aimed at the Japanese market for fuel cell vehicles lays one of several road maps towards value creation in this space.
Several opportunities are pursued in the Low-Pressure Cylinders area, and continued double digit growth is expected.
The Board welcomes the introduction of Mitsui & Co. as a long-term shareholder and partner in value creation within the Hexagon Composites Group, across all of its businesses. The announced five-year strategic alliance will help identify major growth opportunities and leverage Mitsui & Co.'s significant global footprint and reach in several areas for the benefit of both parties. We believe this significantly enhances the Group's potential for organic and non-organic growth over the course of the alliance.

The actual results may deviate from these estimates. The material assessments underlying the application of the Group's accounting policy and the main sources of uncertainty are the same as for the consolidated accounts for 2015.
NOTE 5: SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS
On 3 March 2015 Hexagon Composites ASA issued 975,000 call options to senior executives and managers in the Group. The share options give rights to buy shares in Hexagon Composites ASA at NOK 25 per share. The options may be exercised in part or in full within three weeks following the official announcement of the financial results for the fourth quarter of 2017, first quarter of 2018 or second quarter of 2018. The fair value of the options was calculated on the grant date, based on the Black-Scholes model, and the cost is recognized over the service period. The cost in 2016 associated with the share option scheme is NOK 606 thousand. The fair value of all options granted is estimated to NOK 4,7 million per 31 March 2016.

In addition the Company settled an interest rate swap of NOK 4 million (hedging instrument). As the instrument has been recognized to fair value, there will be no profit and loss effect related to this transaction.
Regarding new call options see note 5.
There have not been any other significant events after the balance sheet date.
