Divestco Inc. (TSX VENTURE:DVT) ("Divestco" or the "Company") announces its
operating results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2011.
Accounting Policy Changes
On January 1, 2011, Divestco adopted International Financial Reporting Standards
("IFRS") for purposes of financial reporting, using a transition date of January
1, 2010. Accordingly, the Company's consolidated financial statements for the
year ended December 31, 2011 and the comparative information for the year ended
December 31, 2010, have been prepared in accordance with IFRS 1, "First-time
Adoption of Int ernational Financial Reporting Standards", as issued by the
International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). Previously, the Company
prepared its consolidated financial statements in accordance with Canadian
generally accepted accounting principles ("CGAAP"). The adoption of IF RS has
not had an impact on the Company's operations and strategic decisions.
Results for the Three Months Ended December 31, 2011
Divestco recorded EBITDA of $3.3 million in Q4 2011, a $7.9 million increase
from a loss of $4.6 million for the same period in 2010. The Company generated
funds from operations of $2.9 million ($0.05 per share - basic and diluted) for
t he fourth quarter of 2011, an increase of $6.3 million as compared to funds
used in operations of $3.4 million ($0.08 per share - basic and diluted) for the
same period in 2010.
Divestco significantly reduced its net loss for the fourth quarter of 2011 to
$0.8 million ($0.01 per share - basic and diluted) compared to a net lo ss of
$7.1 million ($0.16 per share - basic and diluted) for the same period in 2010.
Revenues increased and operating costs decreased, however, depreciation and
amortization increased due to the two new seismic surveys that the Company
completed in Q4 2011.
During Q4 2011, Divestco generated revenue of $11.4 million compared to $8.9
million in Q4 2010, an increase of $2.5 million (28%) indicative of a resurgence
in the industry activity. Revenue in the Seismic Data segment increased by $1.9
million (70%) as the Company shot two new seismic participation surveys and
commenced a third survey in Q4 2011. In line with high oil prices, the surveys
were shot within predominantly oil prospective areas. Revenue in the Software
and Data segment grew by $0.3 million (11%) due to a significant sale in Q4
2011. Revenue in the Services segment improved by $0.3 million (8%) as the
demand for seismic processing was also stronger.
Operating expenses decreased by $5.3 million (39%) to $8.2 million in Q4 2011
from $13.5 million in Q4 2010. Salaries and wages were down $0.9 million (17%)
due to reduced staffing levels. In addition, a $1.2 million sublease loss
recognized in Q4 2010 was not repeated in Q4 2011, occupancy costs decreased by
$0.6 million (15%) and bad debt expense decreased by $2.4 million (114%) due to
a non-recurring write-off in Q4 2010. Depreciation and amortization increased by
$2 million (113%) due to the completion of two seismic participation surveys in
Q4 2011.
Results for the Year Ended December 31, 2011
Divestco recorded EBITDA of $6 million in 2011, a $54.8 million increase from a
loss of $48.8 million in 2010. The loss in 2010 included a $40.9 million
accounting loss on the sale of the seismic assets. The Company generated funds
from operations of $5.7 million ($0.10 per share - basic and diluted) for the
year ended December 31, 2011, compared to funds used in operations of $5.3
million ($0.13 per share - basic and dilute d) for the same period in 2010, an
increase of $11 million.
Divestco realized a net loss for 2011 of $4.6 million ($0.08 per share - basic
and diluted) compared to a net loss of $65.6 million ($1.54 per share - basic
and diluted) for the same period in 2010. Excluding an accounting loss of $29.5
million ($40.9 million net of tax of $11.4 million) related to the sale of the
Company's seismic data assets in 2010, the reduction in net loss year over year
of $31.5 million was primarily due to a $13.1 million (28%) decrease in
operating expenses, $2.2 million (73%) decrease in finance costs due to a lower
debt load and a $16.7 million (63%) decrease in depreciation and amortization
due to the sale of the seismic assets.
During 2011, Divestco generated revenue of $40.5 million, an increase of $0.3
million (1%) from $40.2 million for the same period in 2010. Revenue in the
Seismic Data segment increased by $1 million (8%) as the Company shot three
seismic participation surveys and commenced a fourth survey in 2011. Offsetting
this was a decrease in sales of existing seismic data due to the sale of the
Company's seismic assets in Q3 2010. Seismic brokerage revenue was down slightly
from 2010. Revenue in the Software and Data segment was flat as a large software
sale in 2011 and improved sales in log data were offset by a decrease in support
data revenue. Revenue in the Services segment decreased by $0.8 million (4%) as
the demand across all divisions was softer in the first three quarters of 2011.
The exception was the land management division where crown land revenue
increased due to higher land sales then in previous years, reflecting the record
land sales in Alberta.
The decrease in operating expenses of $13.1 million (28%) was due to salaries
and wages being down $2.6 million (12%) due to reduced staffing levels partially
offset by severance costs. In addition there was a $3.3 million sublease loss
recognized in 2010 which was not repeated in 2011, bad debt expense decreased by
$5.4 million (104%) due to a large write-off in 2010, stock based compensation
expense decreased by $0.5 million (86%) and seismic data storage costs decreased
by $0.5 million (100%) due to the sale of the seismic assets.
Seismic data update
Late in 2010, Divestco commenced rebuilding its seismic data library by
initiating a 71 square kilometer 3D seismic survey which was completed in early
2011. The Company also obtained the trading rights to an existing 3D survey
covering an adjacent area of 66 square kilometers in Q1 2011 through a data
exchange. Also in 2011, the Company completed two new 3D surveys in central
Alberta (Cochrane North and Three Hills) covering an area of approximately 251
square kilometers. In Q4 2011, the Company commenced two more 3D surveys
(Brazeau and Big Valley), which were completed in Q1 2012 covering an area of
approximately 260 square kilometers. In Q1 2012, Divestco commenced its Ante
Creek survey which is expected to be completed early in Q2 2012 and cover
approximately 120 square kilometers.
Mr. Stephen Popadynetz, CEO, President and CFO: "We are very pleased to report
that Divestco significantly reduced its operating expenses in 2011. As
previously announced in December 2011, further savings will be realized in 2012
with the surrender of five floors of office space by the end of the current
year. In 2012, the savings amounts to $4 million and $5 million annually
thereafter. We are also pleased with the progress we have made towards
rebuilding our seismic data library. Approximately 389 square kilometers of
seismic has been added to our library in 2011 and a further 380 kilometers are
expected to be added by the end of April 2012. Overall demand for seismic data
and general activity levels in the industry so far this year appear to be
trending positively. We are well on track to sustained profitability and
positive earnings and we look forward to delivering better results for our
shareholders."
Non-GAAP Measures
The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with IFRS. Certain measures in this document do not have any standardized
meaning as prescribed by IFRS and are considered non-GAAP measures. These terms
are not measures that have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are
considered non-GAAP measures. While these measures may not be comparable to
similar measures presented by other issuers, they are described and presented in
this MD&A to provide shareholders and potential investors with additional
information regarding the Company's results, liquidity, and its ability to
generate funds to finance its operations. These measures include:
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA")
Divestco uses EBITDA as a key measure to evaluate the performance of its
segments and divisions as well as the Company overall, with the closest IFRS
measure being net income or loss. EBITDA is a measure commonly reported and
widely used by investors as indicators of the Company's operating performance
and ability to incur and service debt, and as a valuation metric. The Company
believes EBITDA assists investors in comparing the Company's performance on a
consistent basis without regard to financing decisions and depreciation and
amortization, which are non-cash in nature and can vary significantly depending
upon accounting methods or non-operating factors such as historical cost.
Previously the Company excluded "other Income (loss )" as presented on its
statement of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss). Other income (loss)
includes the following items: foreign exchange gains/losses, gains/losses on
sales of property and equipment and intangibles, and equity investment
income/loss. Other income (loss) has been included in the calculation of EBITDA
for the current and prior periods.
The Company no longer uses "operating income (loss) " as a non-GAAP measure.
Instead the Company uses the closest GAAP measure, being income or loss before
income taxes.
EBITDA is not a calculation based on IFRS and should not be considered
alternatives to net income or loss in measuring the Company's performance. As
well, EBITDA should not be used as an exclusive measure of cash flow, because it
does not consider the impact of working capital growth, capital expenditures,
debt principal reductions and other sources and uses of cash, which are
disclosed in the consolidated statements of cash flows. While EBITDA has been
disclosed herein to permit a more complete comparative analysis of the Company's
operating performance and debt servicing ability relative to other companies,
investors should be cautioned that EBITDA as reported by Divestco may not be
comparable in all instances to EBITDA as reported by other companies. Investors
should also carefully consider the specific items included in Divestco's
computation of EBITDA.
The following is a reconciliation of EBITDA with net income:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Funds from operations
Divestco reports funds from operations because it is a key measure used by
management to evaluate its performance and to assess the ability of the Company
to finance operating and investing activities. Funds from operations excludes
certain working capital changes and other sources and uses of cash, which are
disclosed in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
Funds from operations is not a calculation based on IFRS and should not be
considered an alternative to the consolidated statements of cash flows. Funds
from operations is a measure that can be used to gauge Divestco's capacity to
generate discretionary cash flow. Investors should be cautioned that funds from
operations as reported by Divestco may not be comparable in all instances to
funds from operations as reported by other companies. While the closest IFRS
measure is cash flows from operating activities, funds from operations is
considered relevant because it provides an indication of how much cash generated
by operations is available before proceeds from divested assets and changes in
certain working capital items.
The following reconciles funds from operations with cash flows from operating
activities:

Funds From (Used in) Operations $ 5,745 $ (5,316)

Funded debt and funded debt to equity
Funded debt is a measure of Divestco's long term debt position and includes bank
indebtedness, long-term debt obligations (shareholder and subordinated loans and
finance leases) and convertible debentures. Funded debt to equity is funded debt
divided by shareholders' equity (as reported on the Company's consolidated
statement of financial position). The ratio indicates what proportion of equity
and debt the Company is using to finance its assets and is used by the Company
to determine an appropriate capital structure.
Working capital
Working Capital is calculated as current assets minus current liabilities
(excluding deferred revenue). Working capital provides is a measure that can be
used to gauge Divestco's ability to meet its current obligations.

This press release contains forward-looking information related to the Company's
capital expenditures, projected growth, view and outlook towards future oil and
gas prices and market conditions, and demand for its products and services.
Statements that contain words such as "could', "should", "can", "anticipate",
"expect", "believe", "will", "may" and similar expressions and statements
relating to matters that are not historical facts constitute "forward-looking
information" within the meaning ap plicable by Canadian securities legislation.
Although management of the Company believes that the expectations reflected in
such forward-looking information are reasonable, there can be no assurance that
such expectations will prove to have been correct because, should one or more of
the risks materialize, or should the assumptions underlying forward-looking
statements or forward-looking information prove incorrect, actual results may
vary materially from those described in this press release as intended, planned,
anticipated, believed, estimated or expected. Readers should not place undue
reliance on forward-looking statements or forward-looking information. All of
the forward-looking statements and forward- looking information of the Company
contained in this press release are expressly qualified, in their entirety, by
this cautionary statement. Except where required by law, the Company does not
assume any obligation to update these forward-looking statements or
forward-looking information if conditions or opinions should change.
In particular, this press release contains forward-looking statements pertaining
to the following: Company's ability to keep debt and liquidity at acceptable
levels, improve/maintain its working capital position and maintain profitability
in the current economy; availability of external and internal funding for future
operations; relative future competitive position of the Company; nature and
timing of growth; oil and natural gas production levels; planned capital
expenditure programs; Supply and demand for oil and natural gas; future demand
for products/services; commodity prices; impact of Canadian federal and
provincial governmental regulation on the Company; expected levels of operating
costs, finance costs and other costs and expenses; future ability to execute
acquisitions and dispositions of assets or businesses; expectations regarding
the Company's ability to raise capital and to add to seismic data through new
seismic shoots and acquisition of existing seismic data; treatment under tax
laws; and new accounting pronouncements.
These forward-looking statements are based upon assumptions including: future
prices for crude oil and natural gas; future interest rates and future
availability of debt and equity financing will be at levels and costs that allow
the Company to manage, operate and finance its business and develop its software
products and various oil and gas datasets including its seismic data library,
and meet its future obligations; the regulatory framework in respect of
royalties, taxes and environmental matters applicable to the Company and its
customers will not become so onerous on both the Company and its customers as to
preclude the Company and its customers from viably managing, operating and
financing its business and the development of its software and data; and that
the Company will continue to be able to identify, attract and employ qualified
staff and obtain the outside expertise as well as specialized and other
equipment it requires to manage, operate and finance its business and develop
its properties.
These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and
uncertainties, certain of which are beyond the Company's control, including:
general economic, market and business conditions; volatility in market prices
for crude oil and natural gas; ability of Divestco's clients to explore for,
develop and produce oil and gas; availability of financing and capital;
fluctuations in interest rates; demand for the Company's product and services;
weather and climate conditions; competitive actions by other companies;
availability of skilled labour; failure to obtain regulatory approvals in a
timely manner; adverse conditions in the debt and equity markets; and government
actions including changes in environment and other regulation.
