INTERNATIONAL SHIPHOLDING CORPORATION REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2013 RESULTS
Declares first quarter dividend of $0.25 per share
Mobile, Alabama, April 24, 2013 – International Shipholding Corporation (NYSE: ISH) today announced the financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2013.
First Quarter 2013 Highlights
· | Reported net income of $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 |
· | Acquired a resale of an existing newbuilding contract for one “eco” design Handysize Bulkcarrier for delivery in the first half of 2015 |
· | Successfully placed $25 million of Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock |
· | Declared a first quarter dividend of $0.25 per share of Common Stock payable on June 3, 2013 to shareholders of record as of May 16, 2013 |
Net Income
The Company reported net income of $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, which included a non-operating gain of $3.2 million from its Yen denominated loan. For the comparable three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company reported net income of $7.9 million which included non-operating gains of $3.8 million and $3.6 million from the sale of two International Flag Pure Car Truck Carriers and its Yen denominated loan, respectively.
Mr. Niels M. Johnsen, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated: “During the quarter, we generated significant revenue from our fixed contracts while taking steps to position the Company for future growth. Specifically, we raised $25 million in a public offering, strengthening our balance sheet and enabling management to reactivate a tug-barge unit that was acquired in the United Ocean Services transaction. In addition, we further enhanced our strategic position in the Handysize bulkcarrier market by acquiring a resale of an existing newbuilding contract for an ‘eco’ Handysize vessel that is scheduled for delivery in the first half of 2015. Although the current dry bulk market has been challenging, we believe the medium to long-term prospects remain positive and the current environment will provide attractive acquisition opportunities.”
Mr. Johnsen continued, “Our cash flows in the period benefitted from a full quarter of fixed revenues from our United Ocean Services operations, which have strengthened our overall contract coverage. With a majority of our fleet operating on medium to long-term charters, we remain well positioned to provide value for our shareholders through our dividend policy. To that end, our Board of Directors declared a first quarter dividend of $0.25 per share, in line with our $1.00 per share target for 2013.”
Gross Voyage Profit
The Company’s gross voyage profit representing the results of its six reporting segments was $11.3 million compared to $14.4 million in the 2012 three month period. The comparable results by operating segment are shown below.

(See below Exhibit 99.2 to reconcile numbers presented above to GAAP figures.)
The improved gross voyage profit for the Jones Act segment reflects the results of United Ocean Services (“UOS”) which was acquired in late 2012, as well as a higher tonnage level moved by the Sulphur Carrier vessel in the first quarter of 2013. Gross voyage profit on the Pure Car Truck Carrier (“PCTC”) segment was lower due primarily to a fewer number of vessels operating in this segment and a lower charter hire rate on one of its U.S. Flag PCTCs partially offset by slightly better supplemental cargo volumes. The lower results of the Dry Bulk Carrier segment reflect the overall depressed dry bulk market as well as the termination during the quarter of the charter on our cape size vessel, which is now operating under a revenue sharing agreement. The Rail Ferry segment improved its gross voyage results due to slightly better margins and the results from its rail car repair facility which was acquired in the latter part of 2012. The Specialty Contracts segment reported a decrease in gross voyage profit due primarily to the termination of the three operating contracts with the government, which occurred in the first quarter of 2012, and the redelivery of the ice-strengthened vessel from its government contract. The Company’s Other segment reported comparable year over year results.
Administrative and General
Administrative and general expenses incurred in the first quarter of 2013 were at comparable levels to the same period of 2012. Higher expenses associated with the integration of UOS were offset by lower professional services during the period.
Interest and Other
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2013, was approximately $526,000 lower than the comparable three months in 2012. Debt service was reduced from the proceeds on the sale of the two International Flag PCTCs and the two U.S. Flag PCTCs sold and leased back, as well as regularly scheduled debt payments. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Japanese Yen weakened in relation to the U.S. Dollar from 86.74 to 94.22, producing an exchange gain of $3.2 million.
Balance Sheet
The Company’s working capital at March 31, 2013, was $15.0 million, an increase of $3.0 million from 2012 year end. The increase in the quarter was driven primarily from cash flow generated from a prepayment of the charter hire on the Company’s self-loading coal carrier and net proceeds from its Series A Preferred Stock. Cash and cash equivalents balance was approximately $31.0 million. During the quarter the Company successfully completed a $25 million capital raise through the issuance of its Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock. The Company’s total debt obligations, at March 31, 2013, was approximately $216 million while EBITDA1 generated during the twelve (12) month period ended March 31, 2013, was approximately $65.5 million.
Dividend Declaration
The Company’s Board of Directors on April 10, 2013, approved a dividend payment of a $1.79 on its Series A Preferred Stock. The Board of Directors declared a $0.25 dividend payable on June 3, 2013, for each share of common stock owned on the record date of May 16, 2013. All future common stock dividend declarations and amounts remain subject to the discretion of International Shipholding Corporation’s Board of Directors.
Outlook
The Company reaffirms its 2013 Net Income, before preferred stock dividends, between $10 and $12 million and EBITDA within a $63 and $67 million range.
