MATRIX SERVICE COMPANY ANNOUNCES FISCAL 2017 RESULTS; PROVIDES FISCAL 2018 GUIDANCE

Consistent with prior forecast, earnings per share is near breakeven for the full year at ($0.01) with fourth quarter at ($0.04)
Resolution achieved on Electrical Infrastructure project, as previously forecasted
Project awards for the three months and fiscal year ended June 30, 2017 up 34% compared to the same periods in the prior fiscal year
Fiscal 2018 guidance for revenue of $1.225 billion to $1.325 billion and fully diluted EPS of $0.55 to $0.75


TULSA, OK – September 6, 2017 – Matrix Service Company (Nasdaq: MTRX) today reported its financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended June 30, 2017.

“As we finish a very challenging year for our end markets, fourth quarter and full year results are in line with guidance provided on our third quarter call. Full year results were driven primarily by a revenue shortfall across our end markets, however we are optimistic about an improving market outlook,” said the Company's President and CEO John R. Hewitt. “We are encouraged by the 34% increase in project awards received during this fiscal year as compared to last year, and by signs of market recovery and increased activity across our operating segments.”

In spite of the challenges presented in fiscal 2017, the Company once again achieved record safety results, with a Total Recordable Incident Rate of 0.49, which represents outstanding performance for our diverse portfolio of businesses. "Safety is our Company’s number one core value and a critical competitive business differentiator,” said Hewitt. “These safety results are a testament to the commitment of our employees and to our Company's values-centered culture.”

Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2017 Results

Revenue for the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2017 was $291.8 million compared to $359.6 million in the same period a year earlier, a decrease of $67.8 million, or 18.9%. Pretax income was $2.6 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to $14.2 million in the same quarter a year earlier. As described under the heading "Income Tax Expense" below, fiscal 2017 fourth quarter earnings were negatively impacted by an unusually high tax rate, resulting in a loss of $0.04 per fully diluted share compared to earnings of $0.34 in the same period a year earlier.

On a segment basis, revenue decreased $85.1 million and $4.4 million in the Storage Solutions and Industrial segments, respectively. The decrease in Storage Solutions revenue was driven primarily by work on the construction of crude gathering terminals that support the Dakota Access Pipeline project, which has been winding down throughout fiscal 2017 and which was not replaced as planned due to delays in project awards. These decreases were partially offset by increases of $19.2 million and $2.6 million in the Oil Gas & Chemical and Electrical Infrastructure segments, respectively. The increase in Oil Gas & Chemical revenue was primarily driven by work on the previously announced Ultra-Low-Sulfur Gasoline Relocation Project and the addition of the acquired Houston Interests business, partially offset by lower volumes of turnaround work.

Consolidated gross profit was $23.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $34.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2016, as a result of lower revenue volume, primarily in the Storage Solutions segment. In spite of strong project execution, fiscal 2017 gross margins were 7.9% compared to 9.5% in the same period a year earlier. The decrease in gross margin in fiscal 2017 was due primarily to lower volumes of work leading to under recovery of construction overhead costs.

Selling, general and administrative costs were $19.6 million in the fourth quarter of both fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016. Fiscal 2017 included an additional $3.0 million of recurring SG&A expense including $0.7 million of non-cash amortization expense that relates to the ongoing operations of the Houston Interests acquisition. These additional expenses were offset by overhead reductions that resulted from the Company's efforts to control its cost structure.

Fiscal 2017 Results

Revenue for the year ended June 30, 2017 was $1.198 billion compared to $1.312 billion in the same period a year earlier, a decrease of $114.4 million, or 8.7%. Pretax income was $2.4 million in fiscal 2017 compared to $39.7 million in the same period a year earlier. As described under the heading "Income Tax Expense" below, fiscal 2017 earnings were negatively impacted by an unusually high tax rate, resulting in a loss of $0.01 per fully diluted share in fiscal 2017 compared to earnings of $1.07 in the same period a year earlier.

On a segment basis, consolidated revenue decreased in the Storage Solutions, Industrial and Oil Gas & Chemical segments by $81.8 million, $47.7 million, and $9.3 million, respectively, which were partially offset by higher revenue in the Electrical Infrastructure segment of $24.4 million. In the Storage Solutions segment, the decrease is primarily attributable to reduced activity during the second half of fiscal 2017 on the Dakota Access Pipeline project, which was not replaced as planned due to delays in project awards. In the Industrial segment, the decline in revenue is primarily attributable to lower business volumes in the iron and steel and mining markets as a result of depressed commodity prices, and lower revenue recognized on a large fertilizer project. In the Oil Gas & Chemical segment, the decrease in revenue is related to lower volume across the business as refiners continue to limit spending as the result of continued volatility in commodity prices and market uncertainty, partially offset by incremental revenues associated with Houston Interests, which was acquired in December 2016. In the Electrical Infrastructure segment, the increase in revenue was primarily a result of higher volumes on a significant power generation project.

Consolidated gross profit was $81.0 million in the year ended June 30, 2017 compared to $126.0 million in fiscal 2016. Fiscal 2017 gross margins were 6.8% compared 9.6% in fiscal 2016. Fiscal 2017 gross margins were negatively impacted by the under recovery of overhead costs, particularly in the Storage Solutions and Oil Gas & Chemical segments, due to lower than anticipated revenue volumes. Additionally, fiscal 2017 earnings were negatively impacted by the deterioration in the projected financial outcome of an Electrical Infrastructure project that occurred in the third quarter. Fourth quarter financial results on this project were as projected and in July 2017 the Company reached a settlement agreement with the customer. The agreement resolved open claims and modified the terms enabling the Company to recover all cost and overheads to perform the remainder of the work. 

Consolidated SG&A expenses were $76.1 million in fiscal 2017 compared to $85.1 million in fiscal 2016. The current fiscal year includes $6.2 million of recurring SG&A expense, including $1.6 million of non-cash amortization expense that relates to the on-going operations of Houston Interests. Current year SG&A expenses were also impacted by other overhead reductions that resulted from the Company's efforts to control its cost structure. Fiscal 2016 SG&A included higher incentive compensation expenses and a bad debt charge of $5.2 million from a client bankruptcy.

Income Tax Expense

The effective tax rates were 137.0% and 94.4% for the three months and fiscal year ended June 30, 2017, respectively. The unusually high tax rates are partially attributable to the magnified net impact of nondeductible permanent tax items due to low operating income. Additionally, the fiscal 2017 loss on the Electrical Infrastructure project produced a tax benefit in Canada, which has a lower tax rate than the U.S. At the same time, the Company earned most of its taxable income domestically, which is taxed at a much higher rate. The Company estimates that its fiscal 2018 effective tax rate will approximate 38%.

Backlog

The June 30, 2017 backlog balance was reduced by $79.2 million to $682.3 million as a result of the scope adjustment attributable to the Electrical Infrastructure project settlement discussed above. This balance compares to $868.7 million at June 30, 2016 and $790.4 million at March 31, 2017. Project awards in the three months ended June 30, 2017 totaled $262.9 million compared to $195.8 million during the same period a year ago, an increase of 34.3%. Project awards for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017 totaled $1.061 billion compared to $793.6 million during the same period a year ago, an increase of 33.6%.

Financial Position

At June 30, 2017, the Company’s cash balance was $43.8 million and borrowings under the senior revolving credit facility were $44.7 million. The cash balance along with availability under the senior credit facility gives the Company liquidity of $122.2 million at June 30, 2017. While the Company is in full compliance with all covenants, availability under the senior revolving credit facility is partially constrained as a result of lower earnings in the last half of fiscal 2017. Despite this facility constraint, the Company maintains a strong balance sheet with the necessary liquidity to meet its fiscal 2018 business plan. However, in keeping with its conservative approach to liquidity management and based on potential growth opportunities, in August the Company executed an amendment to its credit facility. This amendment, which temporarily modifies certain covenant restrictions and increases projected availability, provides additional financial flexibility.

Earnings Guidance

While the market outlook is already showing signs of improvement, the Company expects operating performance to improve as the year progresses. The Company's fiscal 2018 revenue will be between $1.225 billion and $1.325 billion and that earnings will be between $0.55 and $0.75 per fully diluted share.

Backlog
We define backlog as the total dollar amount of revenue that we expect to recognize as a result of performing work that has been awarded to us through a signed contract, notice to proceed or other type of assurance that we consider firm. The following arrangements are considered firm:

fixed-price awards;

minimum customer commitments on cost plus arrangements; and

certain time and material arrangements in which the estimated value is firm or can be estimated with a reasonable amount of certainty in both timing and amount.
For long-term maintenance contracts we include only the amounts that we expect to recognize into revenue over the next 12 months. For all other arrangements, we calculate backlog as the estimated contract amount less revenues recognized as of the reporting date.

In July 2017, the Company reached a settlement agreement with the customer on a large project in the Electrical Infrastructure segment.  The agreement resolved open claims and modified the terms enabling the Company to recover all costs and overhead to perform the remainder of the work.  In addition, the execution strategy was revised and a significant portion of future work will no longer be performed by the Company.  The magnitude of the scope reduction is based on the Company’s best estimate at this time but may change as the detailed execution plan continues to develop.
