IRVING, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Global Power Equipment Group Inc. (OTC: GLPW) (“Global Power” or the “Company”) today reported its financial results for the full year ended December 31, 2016, as well as for the first, second and third quarters of 2016. Reporting of the Company’s 2016 financial results was delayed because of the time it took to prepare, audit and file the Company’s 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which included restated results from prior-year periods.
The Company also reported on its operational progress in 2017 and its current strategic actions.
Craig Holmes and Tracy Pagliara, Co-Presidents and Co-CEOs of Global Power, commented, “We continue to advance our efforts to address financial, operational and strategic challenges. We have sold non-core assets, refinanced our debt, realigned management teams in our domestic products businesses and measurably cut costs.”
They added, “We are currently evaluating strategic alternatives for our Mechanical Solutions segment. We believe this segment’s customers, employees and suppliers could benefit from a new strategic partner that can provide increased liquidity and capital for the business to compete more effectively and pursue greater growth in its end markets. In the meantime, we are committed to continuing to leverage our strong brands and remain focused on delivering quality products and services. We also are working to strengthen each of our business segments by seeking to increase project scope with existing customers while pursuing opportunities to diversify our markets and customer base.”

As expected, revenue in 2016 declined $170.4 million primarily due to the reduction in Services segment revenue.
- Revenue for Mechanical Solutions declined $6.2 million, related to the July 2016 sale of TOG Holdings, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, TOG Manufacturing Company, Inc. (collectively “TOG”). TOG’s revenue was $3.6 million in 2016 and $9.8 million in 2015. The decline in revenue was also attributable to a $6.7 million decrease for inlet systems projects, lower after-market parts sales and quality and execution issues in prior years with major OEM customers in its United States-based business. Currently, the Company believes these issues have been mostly resolved. Additionally, revenue in 2015 was adversely impacted by $3.9 million in liquidated damages. Approximately 66%, or $74.3 million, of Mechanical Solutions revenue was from sales outside the United States.
-
Revenue for Electrical Solutions decreased $7.9 million due to lower
sales of control houses, while 2015 revenue benefited from a $9.9
million multi-unit generator enclosures shipment.
The vast majority of Electrical Solutions revenue was generated in the United States.
-
Revenue for Services declined $65.1 million due to the loss of a
maintenance and modification contract in mid-2015 and the related
project work associated with that contract. In addition, approximately
$66.4 million of the decline in revenue was due to the completion of a
nuclear facility construction project, which was commissioned to
restart service in the latter half of 2016. Furthermore, revenue in
2015 benefited $27.3 million from the 18-month outage schedule
associated with another maintenance and modification contract
customer. Services revenue in both periods included revenue associated
with Hetsco Holdings, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Hetsco,
Inc. (collectively “Hetsco”), which were sold in January 2017 in order
to reduce debt. Hetsco’s revenue was $22.4 million in 2016 and $23.7
million in 2015.
Services revenue was primarily generated in the United States.

- Gross profit improved on lower revenue for Mechanical Solutions because of improved project execution, a $4.3 million reduction in warranty expense and a $3.9 million reduction in liquidated damages in its domestic business.
- Electrical Solutions gross profit improvement primarily reflected efficiencies gained from facility rationalization, which included the closure of its Chattanooga, Tennessee plant, and $2.5 million in lower warranty expense.
- Services gross profit declined on lower revenue. The lost maintenance and modification contract, completion of construction on a nuclear facility and the timing of a customer outage had a $17.9 million negative impact on gross profit. Partially offsetting the decline was the addition of $3.0 million in gross profit on multi-year fixed price nuclear and fossil fuel projects.

- Reduced selling and marketing expenses were principally the result of a $0.9 million decline in bad debt expense, $0.6 million in lower sales commissions due to lower revenue, $0.3 million reduction in travel and entertainment expense and $0.2 million less for recruiting expense.
- General and administrative expenses declined $7.8 million when excluding $0.7 million in disposition costs associated with the Hetsco and TOG sales, and a $0.6 million charge related to the facility closure in Chattanooga. The majority of the decline in 2016 was due to reduced headcount and related lower compensation and benefit expense, along with reduced travel costs.
- Restatement expenses were down from the prior year. Restatement expenses primarily consisted of fees for legal and accounting services associated with the restatement of the Company’s historical financial results.

Consolidated operating loss for 2016 improved primarily due to $47.8 million in impairment expenses that impacted 2015.
- Mechanical Solutions operating income improved on higher gross profit and the elimination of $24.4 million in impairment expense recorded in 2015. Additionally, Mechanical Solutions reduced operating costs by $4.0 million, of which $0.7 million were attributable to TOG, which was sold in July 2016. Mechanical Solutions operating results included $0.8 million and $1.5 million of operating expenses associated with TOG in 2016 and 2015, respectively.
- Electrical Solutions operating loss improved on higher gross profit and the elimination of $19.1 million in impairment expense recorded in 2015. Operating loss in 2015 had the benefit of a $3.2 million bargain purchase gain.
- Services operating income was down to approximately breakeven as a result of lower gross profit of $13.6 million, the $8.3 million loss recorded for the pending sale of Hetsco and a $1.2 million loss on a sale-leaseback, partially offset by a reduction of $4.2 million of impairment charges recorded in 2015. Excluding those impacts, operating expenses for Services were down $6.7 million due to various cost reduction initiatives. Services operating income included Hetsco losses of $7.6 million and $5.3 million in 2016 and 2015, respectively.
- Corporate operating expenses decreased primarily due to reduced restatement expenses.

- Interest expense reflects the impact of a weighted average interest rate of 10.2% in 2016 compared with 5.0% in 2015 on lower average debt balances.
- Income tax expense in 2016 primarily relates to foreign taxes imposed on the net income of our foreign subsidiaries.
- As expected, 2016 Adjusted EBITDA was slightly positive and improved from 2015 primarily due to lower sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses after adjustments for non-recurring items in both years. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as consolidated net income before interest expense-net, income tax expense (benefit), franchise taxes, depreciation and amortization, impairment expense, bargain purchase gain, foreign currency gain, other expense, net, stock-based compensation, restatement costs, asset disposition costs, net loss on sale-leasebacks, loss on sale of business and net assets held for sale, bank restructuring costs, facility closure costs and severance costs.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, commonly known as GAAP. Nevertheless, Global Power believes that providing non-GAAP information such as Adjusted EBITDA is important for investors and other readers of Global Power's financial statements, as they are used as analytical indicators by Global Power's management to better understand operating performance. Because Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may not be directly comparable with other similarly titled measures used by other companies.
See NOTE 1 – Non-GAAP Financial Measures and the attached tables for additional important disclosures regarding Global Power’s use of Adjusted EBITDA, as well as the attached tables that reconcile net income to Adjusted EBITDA.
Liquidity Update
As of September 5, 2017, the Company had $29.3 million in cash and equivalents, including $14.0 million in restricted cash, and an outstanding gross debt balance of approximately $60.9 million.
Given its restrictions under its lending facility, the Company funded operations with working capital during 2016.
In June 2017, the Company refinanced its borrowings with a new $45.0 million credit facility. This term loan has a maturity date of December 16, 2021. In August 2017, the lenders amended the credit agreement to provide an additional $10.0 million term loan to the Company to address working capital needs. The additional $10.0 million loan matures on September 30, 2018. Borrowings under the new facility initially bear interest at LIBOR plus 9% per year, payable in cash, plus 10% payable in-kind (“PIK”) interest. Beginning January 1, 2018, the PIK interest rate will increase to 15% per year if the Company chooses not to make an elective principal payment of $25.0 million. The Company may voluntarily prepay the term loans at any time in a minimum amount of $1.0 million of the outstanding principal amount, plus any accrued, but unpaid, interest on the aggregate amount of the term loans being prepaid, plus a defined prepayment premium ranging from 0% to 3% based on the timing of the prepayments.
While the expansion of the term loan has provided the Company with a certain amount of incremental liquidity, the Company’s overall liquidity remains constrained. To address its liquidity constraints and better focus its resources, the Company has initiated processes to sell its manufacturing facility in Mexico as well as its office facility in the Netherlands. The Company is also evaluating strategic alternatives relating to its Mechanical Solutions segment.
First Half 2017 Operational Review and Financial Result Estimates
Cautionary Note Regarding Preliminary Estimates
All statements in this press release regarding the Company’s preliminary 2017 financial results, including its revenue, are forward-looking statements based on the Company’s initial review of the results in the first half of 2017. There is significant risk that actual results could differ significantly from the preliminary estimates contained in this press release. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the 2017 guidance. The preliminary information should not be viewed as a substitute for full financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for any periods.
The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm has not audited or reviewed the preliminary 2017 estimates.
In its 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “2016 10-K”), the Company disclosed that its internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2016, due to the material weaknesses described in the 2016 10-K, and those material weaknesses have not been remediated as of the date of this press release. The material weaknesses in the Company’s internal controls significantly increase the risk that the preliminary 2017 information provided herein may need to change. For additional information about the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, see the 2016 10-K.
-
Preliminary revenue for the first six months of 2017 is currently
estimated to be down approximately $60 million compared with the first
six months of 2016.
- Preliminary Mechanical Solutions revenue is currently estimated to have declined approximately $31 million in the first half of 2017 because two large orders in its Netherlands-based business were not replicated during the period and domestic sales continued to be weak due to prior-year quality and on-time delivery issues.
- Preliminary Electrical Solutions revenue is currently estimated to have declined approximately $15 million, of which $9.3 million relates to the closure of a production facility. Lower productivity related to ongoing operational issues in the Houston plant has impacted gross margins.
- Preliminary Services revenue is currently estimated to have declined approximately $14 million, of which $8.7 million was related to the sale of Hetsco in January 2017.
Mechanical Solutions: This segment provides custom-designed and engineered auxiliary equipment for utility-scale natural gas turbine power plants. Backlog at June 30, 2017 was down approximately $5 million from $37.8 million at the end of 2016. Significant cost reductions were implemented in the domestic operations to better align costs with lower revenue and backlog. This segment’s operations in Europe performed well in 2016 and continue to meet expectations, although revenue in 2017 has been down somewhat due to timing of projects.
Electrical Solutions: This segment provides custom-designed and engineered electrical control houses, generator enclosures and fuel tanks. Backlog at June 2017 was up approximately $5 million from backlog of $55.9 million at the end of 2016. Changes in project selection and pricing helped to improve operating results in 2016, although operational challenges within the segment continued into 2017. Organizational changes were made in August 2017 to improve operational effectiveness, although material improvement in financial results will likely not be realized until 2018.
Services: This segment provides a comprehensive range of maintenance, modification and construction services, primarily for nuclear power plants, but also for other utilities, power plant operators and industrial customers. Its strategy for growth is to expand scope with current customers and diversify by leveraging its capabilities for new applications, customers and markets. Targeted markets for strategic growth include nuclear decommissioning, oil and gas mid-stream and downstream, transmission and distribution, pipeline and electric substations and government. As a result of the recently announced recommendation to complete construction of the two-reactor expansion of Plant Vogtle, a nuclear power plant near Augusta, Georgia, Services expects to continue its work as a subcontractor on that project, pending final approval from the Georgia Public Service Commission. Plant Vogtle Units 3 and 4 will be the first new units built in the United States in the last three decades and are currently the only new units being actively constructed in the country. Backlog at June 30, 2017 was down approximately $20 million from $138.6 million at the end of 2016 due primarily to the completion of a maintenance and modification contract outage in the first half of 2017. Services backlog is comprised of maintenance and modification contract work expected to be performed over the next 12 months as well as construction contracts and master service agreements.
Strategic Outlook
Mr. Holmes and Mr. Pagliara commented, “We are pleased with the progress being made by our Services segment to expand its project scope and diversify its revenue stream. It has been safely helping plant owners and operators enhance operations for over 50 years and is capable of becoming a larger and more profitable business.”
They concluded, “While our Electrical Solutions segment had setbacks during the past year, we are encouraged that recent management and organizational changes have begun to improve our operations and restore our customers’ confidence in us. As to the Mechanical Solutions segment, it has inherent value in its brand, worldwide product advances and renewed focus on process and quality in its U.S. operations. Mechanical Solutions could also have better future growth opportunities as a part of a well-capitalized organization with greater resources. Our objectives are to better capitalize Global Power and generate improved financial performance.”
Update on Financial Reporting for 2017
The Company expects to file its quarterly reports for 2017 by the end of the year and its 2017 annual report on Form 10-K by the filing deadline at the end of March 2018. Once current with its filings, Global Power plans to hold an annual meeting of shareholders and to apply for listing on a national securities exchange.

NOTE 1 – Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to reporting net income, a U.S. GAAP measure, we present Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest expense-net, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation and amortization, and unusual gains or charges), which is a non-GAAP measure. The Company’s management believes Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of operating performance because it allows management, investors and others to evaluate and compare the performance of its core operations from period to period by removing the impact of the capital structure (interest), tangible and intangible asset base (depreciation, amortization and impairment expense), taxes and unusual gains or charges (bargain purchase gain, foreign currency gain, other expense-net, stock-based compensation, restatement expenses, asset disposition costs, net loss on sale-leasebacks, losses on sale of business and net assets held for sale, bank restructuring costs, facility exit costs and severance costs), which are not always commensurate with the reporting period in which such items are included. Adjusted EBITDA is not calculated through the application of GAAP and is not the required form of disclosure by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). As such, it should not be considered as a substitute for the GAAP measure of net income and, therefore, should not be used in isolation from, but in conjunction with, the GAAP measure. The use of any non-GAAP measure may produce results that vary from the GAAP measure and may not be comparable to a similarly defined non-GAAP measure used by other companies. See the attached Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation table on page 14.

|
Non-GAAP Financial Measure: |
|
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as consolidated net income before interest expense-net, income tax expense (benefit), franchise taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, impairment expense, bargain purchase gain, foreign currency gain, other expense-net, stock-based compensation, restatement expenses, asset disposition costs, net loss on sale-leasebacks, loss on sale of business and net assets held for sale, bank restructuring costs, facility exit costs and severance costs. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, commonly known as GAAP. Nevertheless, Global Power believes that providing non-GAAP information such as Adjusted EBITDA is important for investors and other readers of Global Power's financial statements, as they are used as analytical indicators by Global Power's management to better understand operating performance. Global Power’s credit facility also contains ratios based on EBITDA. Because Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may not be directly comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. |
