Electricity revenues increased 14.7%
to $89.0 million Company raises revenue guidance for 2013
Ormat Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:ORA) today announced financial
results for the third quarter of 2013.
Quarterly financial highlights compared to the same
quarter last year:
- Electricity revenue increased by 14.7% to $89.0 million;
- Gross margin grew 75 basis points to 30.4%;
- Operating income reached $29.8 million compared to $12.1
million;
- Net income attributable to the Company's shareholders was $13.0
million or $0.28 per share (diluted), compared to a net loss of
$0.6 million or $0.01 per share (diluted);
- Adjusted EBITDA grew 25.0% to $60.3 million; and
- Declared dividend of $0.04 per share
Operational highlights and recent
developments:
- Increased electricity generation by 5.0% to 985,531 MWh, driven
by new capacity coming on line at Olkaria III Plant 2 in Kenya, and
increased generation at the McGuiness Hills plant;
- Successfully completed the world's largest binary geothermal
plant, the 100 MW Ngatamariki in New Zealand, under a $142.0
million EPC contract;
- Secured a 10-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with the
Southern California Public Power Authority to supply power from the
Heber 1 geothermal plant in California beginning December 16, 2015.
The new PPA replaces the Standard Offer Contract No. 4 (SO#4),
which is tied to natural gas prices, with fixed-price contract at a
higher rate;
- Entered into a joint development agreement with eBay
to develop a 5 MW recovered energy generation power plant in Utah
to supply cleaner electricity to eBay's new data center; and
- Signed an agreement for a greenfield development of the Hu'u
Dompu geothermal prospect in Indonesia
Dita Bronicki, Chief Executive Officer of Ormat, stated: "During
the third quarter, we continued to deliver strong financial and
operational results. In the electricity segment, we benefitted from
the first full quarter of commercial operation of the Olkaria III
Plant 2 in Kenya, which helped drive a 5.0% increase in generation.
In addition, gross margin increased in the electricity segment to
31.1% due to the contribution of the new plants added to our
portfolio in the past two years and to our continued focus on
improving operational efficiencies at our existing plants. Looking
ahead, we are poised to continue these positive trends and we aim
to bring new capacity on line and replace legacy PPAs with more
favorable agreements."
"A substantial milestone in the product segment is the
completion of the 100MW Ngatamariki geothermal power plant. The
completion of the plant in less than 24 months from the award with
generation at 104% of its designed output is a further testament to
our execution capability and the suitability of our technology to
large geothermal facilities. Looking forward, our backlog remains
strong as we secured new orders in the third quarter 2013 and
stands at approximately $173.0 million with more than $120.0
million expected to be recognized in 2014."
Ms. Bronicki concluded, "We are raising our 2013 guidance and
expect total revenue to be between $525.0 million to $535.0 million
with electricity segment revenues to be approximately $330.0
million and product segment revenues to be between $195.0 million
and $205.0 million."

Reconciliation of EBITDA, Adjusted
EBITDA and Additional Cash Flows Information |
For the Nine and Three-Month Periods
Ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 |
(Unaudited) |
We calculate EBITDA as net income before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net
income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization,
excluding impairment of long-lived assets and one-time termination
fee. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not a measurement of financial
performance or liquidity under accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America and should not be
considered as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities
or as a measure of liquidity or an alternative to net earnings as
indicators of our operating performance or any other measures of
performance derived in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. EBITDA and
Adjusted EBITDA are presented because we believe they are
frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other
interested parties in the evaluation of a company's ability to
service and/or incur debt. However, other companies in our industry
may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we
do.
The following tables reconcile net cash provided by (used in)
operating activities and net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
for the nine and three-month periods ended September 30, 2013 and
2012:
