Fairmount Santrol Announces Third-Quarter 2015 Results


  • Total Company volumes down 9% sequentially, Proppant Solutions volumes down 8% sequentially, with frac sand volumes down 6% and coated proppant volumes down 25% sequentially
  • Total revenue of $171.0 million, down 23% sequentially
  • Net loss of $46.2 million, or $(0.29) per diluted share, including adjustments of $38.9 million, which are the after-tax effect of restructuring charges and asset impairments and a non-cash tax expense of $28.1 million due to a change in book tax rate  
  • Total Adjusted EBITDA of $21.8 million, down 40% sequentially
  • Free cash flow in the quarter of $13.3 million, after capital expenditures of $30.3 million, brings cash balance to $179.5 million at September 30, 2015

CHESTERLAND, Ohio, Nov. 12, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fairmount Santrol (NYSE:FMSA) today announced results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2015. 

Third-quarter 2015 revenue totaled $171.0 million, down 54% from $373.5 million for the same period in 2014, and down 23% from $221.3 million in the second quarter of 2015. Overall sales volumes were 2.0 million tons for the quarter, compared with 2.6 million tons in the third quarter of 2014 and 2.2 million tons in the second quarter of 2015.

For the third quarter, the Company had a net loss of $46.2 million, or $(0.29) per diluted share, compared with net income of $54.1 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, for the same period a year ago and net income of $14.1 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2015. The Company had a $28.1 million non-cash tax expense in the third quarter. The adjustment is primarily driven by changes to the current and forecasted business levels, the variability of book income (or loss) between quarters, and a proportionately greater impact on taxable income from the statutory percentage depletion allowance. The Company expects to show a cumulative annual tax benefit for the full year 2015.

Adjusted earnings per diluted share were $(0.05), compared with $0.34 for the third quarter of 2014 and $0.02 in the second quarter of 2015. Adjusted earnings per diluted share exclude the after-tax impact of restructuring charges taken in the third quarter of $0.02 per diluted share and the impact of the non-cash tax charge of $0.22 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA of $21.8 million was down 81% from the same period a year ago and down 40% sequentially.

Business Segments

Proppant Solutions

Total Proppant Solutions volumes for the third quarter of 2015 were 1.5 million tons, down 25% compared with the prior-year period and down 8% compared with the second quarter of 2015. Raw frac sand volumes were 1.3 million tons, down 15% compared with volumes for the same period a year ago and down 6% sequentially. Coated proppant volumes were 0.15 million tons, down 61% from the prior-year period and down 25% versus the second quarter of 2015.

During the third quarter, the Company experienced an average decline in selling prices of 8% sequentially across all product lines.

Proppant Solutions revenue totaled $141.6 million in the third quarter, a 58% decrease compared with $340.7 million in the same period a year ago and a 25% decrease compared with $188.2 million in the second quarter of 2015.

Adjusted contribution margin for the Proppant Solutions segment decreased to $22.1 million in the third quarter, from $125.1 million in the third quarter of 2014 and $37.8 million in the second quarter of 2015.

Industrial and Recreational Products

Industrial and Recreational revenue was $29.4 million in the third quarter, down 11% from the $32.8 million for the same period a year ago and down 11% from $33.2 million last quarter. Volumes for this segment were 0.57 million tons in the third quarter, down approximately 11% compared with the third quarter a year ago and down 11% from the second quarter of 2015. The sequential reduction was primarily a result of our plant consolidation efforts and reduced demand for metal castings in the oil and gas, agriculture, and mining segments of the foundry market.

Adjusted contribution margin for the Industrial and Recreational segment was $11.0 million versus $10.0 million in the third quarter of 2014 and $11.2 million in the second quarter of 2015.

Management Comments

“As market demand has deteriorated during 2015, pricing has been under pressure for the entire industry, which continued into the third quarter. During this challenging third-quarter pricing environment, we believe that Fairmount Santrol maintained our market share position, which included share gains achieved during the first half of 2015,” said Jenniffer Deckard, President and Chief Executive Officer.  “We have achieved these gains in 2015 due to our total proppant solutions approach to providing value to our customers.  Our selective matching of market price movements combined with our advantaged logistics and distribution footprint, including a growing unit train capability, are valued by our customers as a way to further reduce their costs and improve their efficiencies.  As we continue to bring down our customers’ total cost and their production cost per BOE, we believe we are well-positioned to continue to benefit from an ongoing consolidation of suppliers.”

Ms. Deckard added, “We are continuing to proactively manage through the challenging market conditions by successfully implementing cost reduction initiatives and driving efficiencies throughout our business. These actions are essential for protecting our flexibility in the near term and maintaining our market leadership position in the long term.”

Progress on Key Initiatives

  • Continued focus on cost effectiveness: In the third quarter and into the fourth quarter, Fairmount Santrol continued to consolidate into a more cost-effective footprint. During the first few days of October, the Company idled its sand processing operations in Hager/Bay City, Wisconsin. The Company also reduced work schedules at other facilities during the third quarter to further increase efficiencies. In total, Fairmount Santrol’s actions have enabled the Company to lower average production cost per ton by 14% across all frac sand grades, and by 35% for Northern White raw frac sand, since the end of 2014, despite lower overall volumes and a shift in product mix.


Similarly, the Company has taken further actions to consolidate its coating capacity footprint. In October, the Company idled its resin-coating facility in Cutler, Illinois. The consolidation of higher-cost production capacity this year, along with lower costs for resin, have enabled the Company to reduce the cost per ton of producing its resin-coated products by more than 25% since the end of 2014.  

Benefits from the Company’s positive production cost per ton reductions for both raw sand and resin-coated products served to partially offset several adverse factors in the third quarter, including price concessions, lower volumes against which to leverage other fixed costs, and $2.5 million in additional book expense associated with the sale of higher-cost beginning inventories.

Fairmount Santrol has continued to refine and optimize its terminal network to the benefit of both the Company and its customers. At the end of the quarter, the Company opened a new unit train terminal in Tenaha, Texas, expanding its unit train-capable destinations to six, all of which are well-positioned to cost-effectively serve customers.  During the quarter, the Company reduced its weighted average terminal operating cost per ton by 6% sequentially, which served to offset a good portion of the $0.9 million of additional rail car costs. In addition, the Company continued to focus on improving its logistics costs and efficiency by shipping more than 50 unit trains, comprising more than 45% of Northern White raw sand volumes shipped in the third quarter.

Fairmount Santrol also continued to reduce SG&A costs in the third quarter by an additional 5% from the previous quarter’s level. Excluding the specific costs associated with restructuring, the Company’s year-to-date SG&A is $61.5 million. The third-quarter annualized adjusted SG&A is $73.3 million, which is a 30% reduction from last year’s total, excluding the costs of its October 2014 initial public offering. The Company expects to implement further cost reduction actions in the fourth quarter.

Through the first nine months of 2015, Fairmount Santrol has recorded restructuring and related charges of $20.2 million in connection with its consolidation and cost reduction efforts. These charges include $6.8 million in future cash obligations for pension and reclamation, $12.4 million associated with asset write-downs and impairments, and $1.0 million in severance costs.  The annualized savings in compensation and benefits associated with these reductions are expected to be approximately $21.8 million.  

  • Investing in optimally located, low-cost Wedron, Illinois facility: The Company is continuing the expansion of its Wedron, Illinois facility. An additional 3 million tons of capacity is expected to be added in the first half of 2016. The facility provides access to high-quality Northern White frac sand reserves and is optimally located along a Class 1 railway system, which offers low-cost routes into key oil and gas basins. In addition, the Wedron facility has unit train capabilities, which are of growing importance to the Company’s larger customers. Capital expenditures associated with Wedron were $19.7 million in the third quarter.
  • Successful trials of Propel SSPTM continue: During the third quarter, trials of Propel SSP continued to show very positive and compelling results, including a six-well field trial in North Dakota’s Williston basin. In this trial, initial 90-day oil production increased 39% compared with the customer’s offset wells in the same location. In addition, Propel SSP was found to have simplified hydraulic fracturing operations by reducing fluid additive consumption by 77% and pump time by 14%. The trial also showed that Propel SSP increased efficiency by not requiring fluid heating at 35° F and above.
  • Managing debt structure and liquidity: In addition to previously extending $161 million of the Company’s B1 term loan from its original maturity date of March 2017 to the revised maturity date of September 2019, Fairmount Santrol worked proactively with its lenders in the third quarter to amend its revolving credit facility, including its leverage covenant, which is the sole financial covenant in its credit facility structure and is only measured if the revolver is drawn in excess of $31 million. The Company executed the changes in order to incorporate additional flexibility as part of its planning initiatives in light of ongoing market uncertainties. As of September 30, 2015, the Company had $28.5 million of unused availability under its revolver, providing total liquidity with cash on-hand of $200.1 million.

Balance Sheet and Other Information

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $179.5 million as of September 30, 2015, and total debt was $1.24 billion compared with $1.25 billion at the end of 2014. 

Through the first nine months of the year, the Company’s capital expenditures totaled $91.5 million, with most of the spending associated with the expansion of the Company’s lower-cost Wedron, Illinois sand processing facility. Capital expenditures during the third quarter were $30.3 million. For the full-year 2015, total capital expenditures are estimated to be $95 million to $100 million.

The Company generated free cash flow after capital expenditures of $13.3 million during the third quarter and $125.6 million during the first nine months of 2015.

Outlook

Due to ongoing uncertainty in the oil and gas markets, the Company is continuing to suspend earnings guidance.

Definition and Use of Certain GAAP and Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We define EBITDA as net income before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation, depletion and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA before non-cash stock-based compensation, management fees and reimbursement of expenses to sponsor, transaction expenses, impairment of assets, loss on extinguishment of debt, gain or loss on disposal of assets, and certain other non-cash income or expenses. Management believes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful because they allow management to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. 

We define segment contribution margin as total revenues less the cost of goods sold to produce and deliver the products of each segment and less selling, general & administrative expenses that are directly attributable to each segment. The definition excludes certain corporate costs not associated with the operations of the segment.
