* All subsequent numbers in parentheses refer to comparative figures for the same period last year. Comparative figures are presented as they were reported in 2016 and not restated as a result of the new business combination effected in the fourth quarter 2016. We refer to the Company's first quarter 2017 presentation on the Company's website for analysis of the proforma first quarter 2016 comparatives at EBITDA level adjusted for the Agility Fuel Solutions deconsolidation. The same presentation also isolates the main financial effects of the xperion Energy & Environment acquisition.
In the first quarter 2017 Hexagon Composites generated NOK 346.2 (291.6) million in operating income and made an operating profit before depreciation (EBITDA) of NOK 35.1 (18.6) million. Operating profit (EBIT) was NOK 16.6 (3.2) million and profit/loss before tax came to NOK 6.3 (-2.6) million.
The financial statements for the first quarter 2017 include the Group's fifty-percent share of Agility Fuel Solutions results accounted for under the equity method. In addition, the fully consolidated financial results of the acquired xperion Energy & Environment ("xperion") and related group subsidiaries are included. There are no restatements to previously reported figures as a result of the transactions which occurred and were first reported in the fourth quarter 2016.
Overall, the quarter's Group results show a marked improvement in profitability both versus the first quarter 2016 and the previous quarter. Operating results in the first quarter were impacted positively by a 42% growth in revenues within the Low-Pressure segment versus the same period last year. Sales volumes of Mobile Pipeline® were solid for a second consecutive quarter, however generated profit from this business unit was not enough to achieve profitability overall within the High-Pressure segment.
Key developments
- Record high sales in the Low-Pressure segment
- Strong Mobile Pipeline® sales driven by large order deliveries to oil and gas customer
- Received an order for gas container modules from EGAS in Pakistan with a total estimated value of EUR 2.6 million (around NOK 21 million)
- Awarded a substantial order for cylinders from Air Products for hydrogen transportation in Germany
- Finalized the joint venture agreement with Nel ASA and PowerCell Sweden AB for integrated hydrogen projects initially focused on the maritime and marine segments.
After balance sheet date
• Entered into long-term agreement with Certarus and received a TITAN® order worth USD 20.6 million (around NOK 177 million)
SEGMENT RESULTS
HIGH-PRESSURE CNG AND CHG
HEXAGON LINCOLN | HEXAGON RAUFOSS | XPERION ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT | AGILITY FUEL SOLUTIONS
Hexagon Composites is the global market leader in high-pressure composite cylinders and systems for compressed natural gas (CNG) and compressed hydrogen gas (CHG).
Operating income for the High-Pressure segment increased by 2% to NOK 175.4 (172.7) million in the first quarter of 2017 compared with the same period in 2016. The yearover-year comparison is impacted negatively by the changes to the structure, as the carve-out of operating income of Agility is larger than the acquired xperion business. Underlying year-over-year growth is therefore more significant, driven by the Mobile Pipeline® business unit.
Mobile Pipeline® sales volumes were primarily serving North American customers but also boosted by the inclusion of the global xperion customer-base. Sales however remain largely project based and therefore relatively lumpy in nature. Increased competition in the US continues to put pressure on profit margins within this sector.
The Light-Duty Vehicle (LDV) business did not realize the expected level of sales growth due to product acceptance delays from a European customer resulting in only partial completion of deliveries in the quarter. The Group and the customer are working together to re-validate certain product parameters to ensure product safety compliance. There have been no field issues with the product, and the parties work under the assumption that deliveries may resume in the start of third quarter.
The Hydrogen business unit is working globally on several hydrogen projects with passenger car OEMs, transit bus, Mobile Pipeline® , ground storage, back-up power, marine and rail applications. The first quarter results were close to break-even at EBITDA level mainly due to timing effects. However, the Hydrogen business unit is still in the early growth stage and is expected to be dilutive to results for the full year 2017.
Revenues for the Agility Fuel Solutions joint-venture comprising the medium and heavy duty CNG automotive businesses grew approximately 9% in the first quarter versus the comparable reported fourth quarter 2016. Heavy-duty truck sales have contributed positively to this development.
Revenues for Agility were USD 40.0 million (approximately NOK 338 million), reported EBITDA was USD 1.4 million (approximately NOK 12 million) and EBITDA adjusted for non-recurring or non-cash items was USD 3.5 million (approximately NOK 30 million). The largest adjusting item on a US GAAP basis is USD 1.9 million (approximately NOK 16 million) for non-vested stock compensation related to legacy and current management incentivization plans. Hexagon Composites' fifty percent share of net profit before tax realized in the financial statements after IFRS adjustments was NOK -4.7 million. This includes depreciation of intangibles of NOK -3.5 million. Although still recording relatively low sales volumes the indications are for a market pick-up through 2017.
EBIT in the first quarter for the High-Pressure segment was NOK -16.4 (-17.5) million.
LOW-PRESSURE LPG
HEXAGON RAGASCO
Hexagon Composites is the global market leader in composite cylinders for propane (LPG).
Operating income for the Low-Pressure segment increased to a record NOK 173.1 (121.8) million compared with the same period in 2016, a growth of 42%.
The growth is attributed to greater flexibility within the product offering and market penetration initiatives. This has been in conjunction with productivity initiatives allowing faster cycle-times and capacity improvement.
Production uptime was strong for the quarter. The recent program of investments has effectively increased capacity within the plant by allowing for faster cycle production times when required. Hexagon Ragasco is expected to continue investments into processes and technologies that can further enhance manufacturing efficiency and product differentiation.
EBIT for the Low-Pressure segment increased to NOK 36.0 (21.4) million in the first quarter.
THE GROUP
Hexagon Composites Group recorded operating profit before depreciation (EBITDA) of NOK 35.1 (18.6) million and a net profit after tax of NOK 7.2 (0.4) million in the first quarter after negative foreign exchange effects recorded in other financial items of NOK 4 million. Underlying contribution to net profit after tax from Agility under the equity method is NOK -4.7 million.
In general, a strong USD relative to NOK has a positive impact on Group equity due to the US operations. The acquisition of xperion has increased the proportion of EUR denominated transactions and cashflows. The acquisition was financed through loans drawn in EUR to naturally manage the balance sheet exposure.
At quarter-end the statement of financial position totaled NOK 2,411.7 (1,887.3) million and the Group's equity ratio was 55.8% (58.3%). This expansion is primarily a consequence of the M&A transactions executed in the fourth quarter of 2016.
AFTER BALANCE SHEET DATE
Hexagon Composites finalized the joint venture agreement with Nel ASA and PowerCell Sweden AB for integrated hydrogen projects initially focused on the maritime and marine segments.
There have been no other significant events after the balance sheet date not previously described in this report or as highlighted in the notes to this report.
OUTLOOK
The Board views the continued market penetration in Low-Pressure very positively. This segment is unaffected by the oil price volatility experienced in the High-Pressure segment, and continued double digit growth is expected.
While the Group has enjoyed consecutive quarters of solid Mobile Pipeline® sales volumes, there is some risk that the second quarter will be softer than the first quarter 2017. The project funnel remains sound, but most sales expected to be generated from these opportunities are in the second half of the year. While the competitive landscape in the US has hardened, Hexagon is countering this development by cost reduction measures and continued technology and business solutions.
The demand for CNG Light-Duty Vehicles is promising and the combination of the Hexagon Composites and xperion businesses has created a global market leader within this market segment. However, the previously mentioned product acceptance delay will persist in the second quarter. Relaunch is planned for early July, and it is currently expected that much of the delayed sales will be recovered in the second half of the year.
Agility Fuel Solutions' strong focus on cost, plant optimization and vertical synergies will continue to drive reasonable profit levels in the current relatively soft market.
Many exciting opportunities are presenting themselves in the Hydrogen business unit, especially prospects in the automotive, maritime, Mobile Pipeline® and ground storage applications, make this a significant growth area in 2017. This involves continued investment in resources and capital however, and the business unit is not expected to return a profit in the short and medium term.
