POWERSECURE REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2014 RESULTS
Wake Forest, N.C. – November 5, 2014 – PowerSecure International, Inc. (NYSE: POWR) today reported its third quarter 2014 results. Highlights include:
| | • | | Third quarter 2014 revenues of $65.0 million |
| | • | | Gross margin of 27.8 percent |
| | • | | Record backlog grows to $360 million |
| | • | | LED gross margins expand by 13 percentage points year-over-year to 39.2 percent |
“The third quarter represents another quarter of strong progress in our execution with exceptional energy efficiency margins, new business wins that have increased our backlog and a strengthened pipeline of distributed generation project opportunities,” said Sidney Hinton, chief executive officer of PowerSecure.
“With our record backlog, and the additional opportunities we hope to leverage from our recent acquisitions, we believe we are very well positioned and are excited for 2015,” Hinton added.
Third Quarter 2014:
PowerSecure’s third quarter 2014 (3Q 2014) revenues were $65.0 million, a decrease of $16.5 million, or 20.2 percent, from the third quarter of 2013 (3Q 2013), driven by a 36.2 percent year-over-year (y-o-y) decrease in revenues from distributed generation (DG) products and services and a 7.1 percent y-o-y decrease in revenues from utility infrastructure (UI) products and services. Revenues from energy efficiency (EE) products and services increased 0.7 percent y-o-y. The following table sets forth the revenues by product and service category (segment) for 3Q14 and 3Q13, and the y-o-y variance.

Gross margin as a percentage of revenue was 27.8 percent in 3Q 2014 compared to 26.3 percent in 3Q 2013. The y-o-y gross margin increase was driven primarily by an increase in the gross margins of our energy efficiency segment, driven by efficiency gains in LED lighting, due to sourcing and manufacturing improvements, and strong margins for our government and retail energy efficiency services projects.
Operating expenses for 3Q 2014 were $18.6 million, compared to $15.5 million in 3Q 2013. The $3.1 million y-o-y increase in operating expenses was primarily due to increases in general and administrative expense due to increases in personnel, including sales team additions, benefits and insurance, stock compensation expense, professional fees to support our business platforms, and depreciation and amortization from our investments in company-owned distributed generation systems and acquisition-related intangibles.
Diluted GAAP earnings per share (EPS) was a loss of $0.02 in 3Q 2014, compared to income of $0.17 in 3Q 2013.
The company completed the third quarter of 2014 with $43.9 million in cash, no cash drawn on its revolving credit facility, and term debt and capital leases of $23.7 million.
The company’s capital expenditures during 3Q 2014 were $4.2 million, with $1.9 million of this capital invested to deploy systems to support PowerSecure-owned long-term recurring revenue distributed generation projects, and the remaining $2.3 million primarily invested in the purchase of equipment for its utility infrastructure and distributed generation businesses.
PowerSecure Segment Results:
Distributed Generation
Distributed generation revenues in 3Q 2014 of $25.9 million reflect a 36.2 percent decrease versus 3Q 2013. Total DG gross margin in 3Q 2014 was 32.1 percent compared to 34.2 percent in the same period last year. DG gross margin not including solar projects in 3Q 2014 was 37.7 percent compared to 36.7 percent in the same period last year.
The revenue decrease was driven by a longer sales cycle surrounding newer large scale opportunities and a reduction in the number of smaller and medium sized projects generating revenue in 3Q 2014. The decrease in total DG gross margin was due to the higher mix of revenue contributed by our solar projects at a lower gross margin than our core DG business.
Utility Infrastructure
Utility Infrastructure revenues in 3Q 2014 of $22.5 million reflect a 7.1 percent decrease versus 3Q 2013. Utility infrastructure gross margin in 3Q 2014 increased to 14.8 percent from 12.3 percent in 3Q 2013.
The y-o-y decrease in UI revenues was primarily due to the company slowing its new business development activity in early 2014, which reduced revenues in 3Q 2014 compared to 3Q 2013, as it focused on improving operational efficiency in its utility services business. The y-o-y gross profit margin increase in UI was driven primarily by improved operational efficiencies in our utility services group.
Energy Efficiency
Energy Efficiency revenues in 3Q 2014 of $16.8 million reflect a 0.7 percent increase versus 3Q 2013. EE gross margin in 3Q 2014 increased to 38.2 percent from 27.5 percent last year.
Approximately 57 percent of EE revenues in Q3 2014 consisted of LED lighting sales, while the remainder came from government and retail energy efficiency projects. The gross margin for our LED solutions was 39.2 percent in 3Q 2014, compared to 26.5 percent in 3Q 2013. The increase in our LED lighting gross margin was driven primarily by the successful completion of our LED lighting restructuring, including decreases in cost of goods sold as a result of transitioning to a more efficient sourcing and manufacturing process.
Backlog
The company’s revenue backlog stands at a record $360 million, as of the date of this release. This includes new business from awards announced on September 26, 2014, October 15, 2014 and October 31, 2014. The company’s revenue backlog represents revenue expected to be recognized after September 30, 2014, for periods including the fourth quarter of 2014 onward.
This backlog figure compares to the revenue backlog of $349 million announced in the company’s second quarter 2014 earnings release issued on August 6, 2014, which represented revenue expected to be recognized after June 30, 2014, and $240 million in revenue backlog announced in the company’s 3Q 2013 earnings release issued on November 6, 2013.
The company’s $360 million revenue backlog and the estimated timing of revenue recognition are outlined below, including “project-based revenues” expected to be recognized as projects are completed, and “recurring revenues” expected to be recognized over the life of the underlying contracts:
| | | | | | | | |
| Revenue Backlog expected to be recognized after September 30, 2014 | | | | |
Description | | Anticipated
Revenue | | | Estimated Primary
Recognition Period | |
Project-based Revenue — Near term | | $ | 173 million | | | | 4Q14 through 2Q15 | |
Project-based Revenue — Long term | | $ | 119 million | | | | 3Q15 through 2016 | |
Recurring Revenue | | $ | 68 million | | | | 4Q14 through 2020 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Revenue Backlog expected to be recognized after September 30, 2014 | | $ | 360 million | | | | | |
Note: Anticipated revenue and estimated primary recognition periods are subject to risks and uncertainties as indicated in the Company’s safe harbor statement, below. Consistent with past practice, these figures are not intended to constitute the Company’s total revenue over the indicated time periods, as the Company has additional, regular on-going revenues. Examples of additional, regular recurring revenues include revenues from engineering fees, and service revenue, among others. Numbers may not add due to rounding.
Orders in the company’s revenue backlog are subject to delay, deferral, acceleration, resizing or cancellation from time to time, and estimates are utilized in the determination of the backlog amounts. Given the irregular sales cycle of customer orders, and especially of large orders, the revenue backlog at any given time is not necessarily an accurate indication of our future revenues.

Non-GAAP Pro forma Financial Measures Discussion:
References to our third quarter and year-to-date 2013 and 2014 Adjusted EBITDA, which we define as our earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and charges, as discussed and shown in this release, constitutes a non-GAAP “pro forma” financial measure.
We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, as a non-GAAP pro forma financial measure, provides meaningful information to investors in terms of enhancing their understanding of our operating performance and results, as it allows investors to more easily compare our financial performance on a consistent basis compared to the prior year periods. This non-GAAP financial measure also corresponds with the way we expect investment analysts to evaluate and compare our results. Any non-GAAP pro forma financial measures should be considered only as supplements to, and not as substitutes for or in isolation from, or superior to, our other measures of financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as net income attributable to PowerSecure International, Inc.
We define and calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to PowerSecure International, Inc., minus: 1) interest income and other income, plus: 2) restructuring charges 3) acquisition expenses, 4) income tax expense (or minus an income tax benefit), 5) interest expense, 6) depreciation and amortization and 7) stock compensation expense. We disclose Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it is a useful metric by which to compare the performance of our business from period to period. We understand that measures similar to Adjusted EBITDA are broadly used by analysts, rating agencies, investors and financial institutions in assessing our performance. Accordingly, we believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors. The table below provides a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income attributable to PowerSecure International, Inc., the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
