Shenandoah Telecommunications Company Reports Net Income Increase of 19.1% to $8.0 Million for Third Quarter 2014; Revenues of $82.3 Million


(GlobeNewswire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) - Revenue Increase Driven By Significant Growth in Wireless Customers and Solid Increases in Cable RGUs - EDINBURG, Va., Oct. 31, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Shenandoah Telecommunications Company ("Shentel") (Nasdaq:SHEN) announces financial and operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2014.



Consolidated Third Quarter Results For the quarter ended September 30, 2014, net income rose by 19.1% to $8.0 million compared to $6.7 million in the third quarter of 2013. Operating income was $14.1 million, up from $13.3 million in the same quarter last year. Adjusted OIBDA (Operating Income Before Depreciation and Amortization) increased 15.9% to $33.3 million in the third quarter of 2014 from $28.7 million in the third quarter of 2013.

Total revenues were $82.3 million, an increase of 6.1% compared to $77.5 million for the 2013 third quarter. The increase in revenue was largely attributable to growth in subscribers and revenue per subscriber. Total operating expenses were $68.1 million in the third quarter of 2014 compared to $64.3 million in the prior year period. Cost of goods sold increased $1.6 million, including increases of $0.9 million in cable programming costs, $2.0 million in costs to dispose of equipment taken out of service when the company's cable and wireline networks were upgraded, and $1.2 million in wireless handset costs. These increases were partially offset by reductions in network costs and maintenance expenses resulting from increases in the percentage of labor capitalized to projects. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $0.6 million. Depreciation and amortization expense increased $1.7 million, primarily due to completion of the Network Vision upgrade project.


President and CEO Christopher E. French commented, "Our upgraded networks and enhanced service drove strong third quarter results as we recognized revenue and subscriber growth in both the cable and wireless segments. We have continued to aggressively market our offerings in the regions in which we operate and we're pleased to see those efforts pay off in the form of increased average revenue per customer." Wireless Segment Revenues in the wireless segment increased 4.5% to $48.0 million as compared to the third quarter of 2013. Net postpaid service revenues increased $1.8 million as a result of 4.8% growth in average customers. The net service fee to Sprint increased from 12% of net billed revenues to 14% on August 1, 2013; this increase reduced net postpaid service revenue by $0.3 million. During the third quarter, net prepaid service revenues grew $0.3 million, or 2.7%, due to growth in average prepaid subscribers as compared to the same period of 2013.

During the third quarter of 2014, net additions to postpaid subscribers were 5,303, an increase of close to 300% as compared to net additions in the third quarter of 2013. Net additions to prepaid subscribers were 1,950, an increase of 50% compared to the third quarter of 2013.

Operating expenses in the Wireless segment increased by $1.8 million in the third quarter of 2014 compared to the third quarter last year. Postpaid handset costs increased $0.5 million in the third quarter as a higher volume of handset upgrades and tablet sales was offset by reduced volume in subsidized handsets. Prepaid handset subsidies increased $0.6 million on higher costs per addition, partially offset by fewer upgrades. Network costs decreased by $0.8 million, primarily due to a $0.5 million decrease in backhaul costs following the completion of the Company's Network Vision upgrade. Selling costs increased $0.3 million, while depreciation expenses increased $1.1 million.

Third quarter adjusted OIBDA in the wireless segment was $25.3 million, an increase of $1.9 million or 8.0% as compared to the third quarter of 2013.

"We experienced solid growth in revenue in our wireless segment with significant increases in both postpaid and prepaid customer counts. Our ability to continue to grow our customer base is a result of effective marketing of our improved network to wireless subscribers who were previously customers of our competitors. Additionally, our long time partnership with Sprint allows us to leverage their national advertising efforts and reinforces our local marketing activities," stated Mr. French.

Cable Segment Service revenue in the cable segment increased $1.2 million as a result of a 6.7% increase in average RGUs (the sum of voice, data, and video subscribers), customers selecting higher speed data access packages, and video rate increases in January 2014. Cost of goods and services sold increased by $1.9 million in third quarter 2014 over third quarter 2013, due largely to increased disposal costs of $1.3 million as the Company disposed of obsolete equipment following its network upgrade. During the quarter the company experienced increased cable programming costs of $0.9 million as rising rates per subscriber outpaced declining video subscriber counts. Maintenance costs decreased $0.3 million related to a reduction in network maintenance costs.

Revenue generating units totaled 120,466 at the end of the third quarter of 2014, an increase of 7.3% over the prior year period. For the third quarter, cable segment net additions totaled 4,245, an increase of 50% from 2,817 in the third quarter of 2013. Included in the 2014 total were 648 video net additions, versus a decrease of nine in the 2013 period.

Adjusted OIBDA in the cable segment for third quarter 2014 was $3.4 million, up 75.2% from $1.9 million in the third quarter of 2013.

Mr. French stated, "Consumers have high expectations around the performance of their cable network and we continue to see increases in revenue generating units as demand for high speed internet outpaces the anticipated decrease in legacy video subscribers. By updating our network to a reliable, high speed solution and by expanding our offerings, we've been able to grow our customer base by capturing new cable customers while also retaining existing cable customers." Wireline Segment Operating income for the wireline segment was $4.4 million as compared to $3.5 million in third quarter 2013. Access lines at September 30, 2014, were 21,742, compared to 22,257 at September 30, 2013.

Adjusted OIBDA for the wireline segment for third quarter 2014 increased to $7.9 million, as compared to $6.5 million in third quarter 2013.

Other Information Capital expenditures were $18.4 million in the third quarter of 2014, compared to $32.3 million in the comparable 2013 period.

Cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2014 were $78.6 million, compared to $38.3 million at December 31, 2013. Total outstanding debt at September 30, 2014 totaled $230.0 million. The Company will begin making quarterly principal payments of $5.75 million on its debt in December 2014. At September 30, 2014, debt as a percent of total assets was 37.4%. The amount available to the Company through its revolver facility was $50 million as of September 30, 2014.

"Our balance sheet is robust and as expected, our capital expenditures have lessened with the completion of our Network Vision 4G build out and cable system upgrades. We believe our updated networks and services position us well to expand our customer base and drive both organic and inorganic growth," Mr. French concluded.

Adjusted OIBDA is defined by us as operating income (loss) before depreciation and amortization, adjusted to exclude the effects of: certain non-recurring transactions; impairment of assets; gains and losses on asset sales; and share based compensation expense. Adjusted OIBDA should not be construed as an alternative to operating income as determined in accordance with GAAP as a measure of operating performance.

In a capital-intensive industry such as telecommunications, management believes that adjusted OIBDA and the associated percentage margin calculations are meaningful measures of our operating performance. We use adjusted OIBDA as a supplemental performance measure because management believes it facilitates comparisons of our operating performance from period to period and comparisons of our operating performance to that of other companies by excluding potential differences caused by the age and book depreciation of fixed assets (affecting relative depreciation expenses) as well as the other items described above for which additional adjustments were made. In the future, management expects that the Company may again report adjusted OIBDA excluding these items and may incur expenses similar to these excluded items. Accordingly, the exclusion of these and other similar items from our non-GAAP presentation should not be interpreted as implying these items are non-recurring, infrequent or unusual.

While depreciation and amortization are considered operating costs under generally accepted accounting principles, these expenses primarily represent the current period allocation of costs associated with long-lived assets acquired or constructed in prior periods, and accordingly may obscure underlying operating trends for some purposes. By isolating the effects of these expenses and other items that vary from period to period without any correlation to our underlying performance, or that vary widely among similar companies, management believes adjusted OIBDA facilitates internal comparisons of our historical operating performance, which are used by management for business planning purposes, and also facilitates comparisons of our performance relative to that of our competitors. In addition, we believe that adjusted OIBDA and similar measures are widely used by investors and financial analysts as measures of our financial performance over time, and to compare our financial performance with that of other companies in our industry.

Adjusted OIBDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. These limitations include the following: it does not reflect capital expenditures; many of the assets being depreciated and amortized will have to be replaced in the future and adjusted OIBDA does not reflect cash requirements for such replacements; it does not reflect costs associated with share-based awards exchanged for employee services; it does not reflect interest expense necessary to service interest or principal payments on indebtedness; it does not reflect gains, losses or dividends on investments; it does not reflect expenses incurred for the payment of income taxes; and other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate adjusted OIBDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

In light of these limitations, management considers adjusted OIBDA as a financial performance measure that supplements but does not replace the information reflected in our GAAP results.

2) Customer relationships represent the number of customers who receive at least one of our services.

3) Generally, a dwelling or commercial unit with one or more television sets connected to our distribution system counts as one video customer. Where services are provided on a bulk basis, such as to hotels and some multi-dwelling units, the revenue charged to the customer is divided by the rate for comparable service in the local market to determine the number of customer equivalents included in the customer counts shown above.

4) Penetration is calculated by dividing the number of customers by the number of homes passed or available homes, as appropriate.

5) Digital video penetration is calculated by dividing the number of digital video customers by total video customers. Digital video customers are video customers who receive any level of video service via digital transmission. A dwelling with one or more digital set-top boxes or digital adapters counts as one digital video customer.

6) Homes and businesses are considered available ("available homes") if we can connect them to our distribution system without further extending the transmission lines and if we offer the service in that area.

7) Revenue generating units are the sum of video, voice and high-speed internet customers.

8) Fiber miles are measured by taking the number of fiber strands in a cable and multiplying that number by the route distance. For example, a 10 mile route with 144 fiber strands would equal 1,440 fiber miles. Fiber counts were recalculated after a fiber audit and deployment of enhanced mapping software in the fourth quarter of 2013.
