-Quarter marked by revenue growth of
8.9%-
PHOENIX, AZ, May 12, 2015 /CNW/ - GWR Global Water Resources
Corp. (the "Company") (TSX: GWR) (OTCQX: GWGWF) today reported its
financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. See information below
regarding today's conference call information.
The Company was established to acquire an equity interest in
Global Water Resources, Inc. ("Global Water"). Global Water
is a U.S., pure-play, water resource management company based in
Phoenix, Arizona, that owns and
operates water, wastewater and recycled water utilities. The
Company accounts for its investment in Global Water using the
equity method of accounting; therefore the financial information of
Global Water is not consolidated with that of the Company. All
references in this press release to consolidated financial
information refer to Global Water on a consolidated basis and,
unless otherwise indicated, all amounts are in U.S. dollars.
First Quarter Highlights
- Grew active service connections by 298 to 43,866 as of
March 31, 2015 compared with 43,568
at December 31, 2014. This represents
an annualized 2.74% increase;
- Year over year revenue increase of $0.6
million from $7.0 million in
quarter ended March 31, 2014 to
$7.6 million in the quarter ended
March 31, 2015. This represents
an 8.9% increase;
- Reduced operating expenses by $0.4
million in the first quarter of 2015 after excluding
depreciation expenses and the one-time impacts from the reversal of
the regulatory provision as a result of concluding the rate case in
the first quarter of 2014;
- Achieved approximately $3.2
million of Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended
March 31, 2015 compared to
$2.1 million for the quarter ended
March 31, 2014. This represents
a year over year increase of $1.1
million or 50.9%. Adjusted EBITDA excludes impacts of
equity investments, the loss in first quarter of 2015 associated
with assets held for sale, income related to a litigation
settlement recorded in first quarter of 2014, and the one-time
impacts from the gain on regulatory order as a result of concluding
the rate case in the first quarter of 2014;
- Announced a stipulated condemnation settlement agreement for
the sale of Valencia Water Company's assets to the City of Buckeye
for $55.0 million in up-front
payments and a 20 year growth premium with payments up to an
additional $45.0 million. The
transaction, which is subject to financing and approval by the
Maricopa County Superior Court, is expected to close in the second
half of 2015;
- Entered into an agreement to sell the assets of Willow Valley
Water Company for approximately $2.5
million, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. The
transaction, which is subject to approval by the Arizona
Corporation Commission (ACC), is anticipated to close in the second
half of 2015; and,
- Announced a second increase on the annual dividend to
$0.312 CAD, reflecting an approximate
8% increase.
Highlights Subsequent to Quarter End
- Announced a normal course issuer bid which allows the Company
to repurchase up to 87,500 common shares, representing
approximately 1% of the total issued and outstanding common shares,
between May 13, 2015 and May 12, 2016.
"In the first quarter of 2015, we realized strong revenue growth
primarily as a result of the first phase-in of new rates and
increased connection growth," stated Ron
Fleming, President and CEO of Global Water. "Additionally,
we have been able to materially reduce costs by creating
operational efficiencies and completing our executive transition
plan. We expect this trend to continue throughout the remainder of
2015."
"The results from our efforts to drive strong and predictable
financial performance are now becoming quite evident," continued
Mr. Fleming. "Once we complete the dispositions of our non-core
assets later this year, we will have further strengthened our
financial position and created additional value for our
shareholders while positioning ourselves for optimal long-term
results."
Summary of Financial Results
Consolidated Revenues
Consolidated revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 were $7.6
million, compared to $7.0
million for the same period in the prior year, an increase
of $0.6 million, or 8.9%. This
increase is primarily attributed to the phase-in of incremental
revenues from the rate case settlement with the ACC, which was
concluded in 2014, and as a result of customer connection growth of
approximately 2.74% on an annualized basis.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2015 were
$6.8 million compared to $(43.4) million for the same period in the prior
year. This increase was primarily attributed to the $50.7 million gain on regulatory order that was
recognized in the first quarter of 2014.
Excluding the gain on regulatory order, operating expenses for
the period ended March 31, 2014 were
$7.2 million, compared to
$6.8 million for the period ended
March 31, 2015. This represents a 5%
decrease in operating expenses primarily attributed to the
operational efficiencies, executive transition plan and lower
deferred compensation expense.
Net Income
Global Water realized a net loss of $0.9
million for the period ended March
31, 2015, compared to a net income of $66.3 million for the same period in the previous
year.
The change in net loss for the three months ending March 31, 2015 compared to net income in the same
period in 2014 is primarily attributed to a $50.7 million gain on regulatory order, a
$16.1 million release of income tax
valuation allowance and income of $2.0
million related to a litigation settlement recorded in first
quarter of 2014.
EBITDA
EBITDA for the quarter ended March 31,
2015 was $2.9 million,
compared to $54.6 million for the
same period in the prior year. The decrease was primarily
attributed to the $50.7 million gain
on regulatory order recorded in 2014 regarding the ACC's
February 2014 rate decision.
Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 was $3.2
million, compared to $2.1
million for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA
is primarily attributed to the phase-in of incremental revenues
from the rate case settlement with the ACC (which began in
January 2015) and the reduction in
operating expenses previously mentioned with respect to the period
ended March 31, 2015.
Business Outlook
Global Water's growth strategy for its regulated water,
wastewater and recycled water business is driven by increased
service connections, continued operating efficiencies and utility
rate increases approved by the ACC.
Arizona's Growth Corridor:
Positive Population Trends
Global Water's acquired utilities and monopolistic service
territories are located in Metropolitan Phoenix's growth corridor,
meaning the Company is well-positioned to benefit from expected
commercial and residential real estate development in the
region.
Positive population and community growth trends throughout 2014
and into 2015 have contributed to the increase of the Company's
total active service connections. In the first quarter of 2015,
Global Water grew its number of active service connections from
43,568 to 43,866 and decreased its vacant home connections to just
3.3% of its total connections.
Metropolitan Phoenix's growth
is fuelled by its low-cost housing options, excellent weather,
large and growing universities, diverse employment base and low tax
regime.
The Arizona Department of Administration – Office of Employment
and Population Statistics ("ADOA-EPS") predicts that Maricopa County will have a population of 4.5
million by 2020. Combined with six additional years of rate
phase-ins as approved in the last rate case, this will pave the way
for Global Water to meaningfully increase its active service
connections and regulated revenues for the foreseeable future.
Disposition of Non-Core Assets
In March 2015, Global Water
announced that it would divest its interests in two non-core
assets, namely the Valencia Water Company, Inc. and Willow Valley
Water Co. These dispositions will allow the Company to focus its
financial resources on assets aligned with its corporate and total
water management model.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking
Statements
This press release includes certain
forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements
include, but are not limited to our plans, objectives, expectations
and intentions, and other statements contained in this release that
are not historical facts as well as statements identified by words
such as "expects", "anticipates", "intends", "plans", "believes",
"seeks", "estimates", or the negative of these terms, or other
words of similar meaning. These statements are based on our
current beliefs or expectations and are inherently subject to
significant uncertainties and changes in circumstances, many of
which are beyond our control. Actual results may differ
materially from these expectations due to changes in global
political, economic, business, competitive, market and regulatory
factors and other factors discussed under the heading "Risk
Factors" in the Company's most recent Annual Information Form. We
undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking
statement, except as required by law, whether as a result of new
information, future developments or otherwise.
Cautionary Note Regarding Non-GAAP
Measures
This press release contains references to
"EBITDA". EBITDA is defined for the purposes of this press release
as income or loss from continuing operations before interest
expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization.
Management believes that EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure of
Global Water's operating performance. However, EBITDA is not
a recognized earnings measure under U.S. GAAP or Canadian GAAP and
do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP or
Canadian GAAP. Therefore, EBITDA may not be comparable to
similar measures presented by other issuers. EBITDA should
not be construed as an alternative to net income or loss. See
"Consolidated Statements of Operations for the eight quarters end
December 31, 2014" in the attached
schedules for a reconciliation of EBITDA to net income, the nearest
comparable U.S, GAAP measure.
