Divestco Inc. (TSX VENTURE:DVT) ("Divestco" or the "Company") announces its operating results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2012. Three months ended December 31, 2012 Divestco generated a net loss for the fourth quarter of 2012 of $1.2 million ($0.02 per share - basic and diluted) compared to a net loss of $0.8 million ($0.01 per share - basic and diluted) for the same period in 2011. EBITDA was $0.3 million in Q4 2012, a $3 million (91%) decrease from $3.3 million for the same period in 2011. The Company generated funds from operations of $10,000 ($nil per share - basic and diluted) for the fourth quarter of 2012, compared to $2.9 million ($0.05 per share - basic and diluted) for the same period in 2011. EBITDA and funds from operations do not include capital expenditures of $3.2 million, mainly comprised of the cost related to a new seismic program that commenced in Q4 2012. During Q4 2012, Divestco generated revenue of $7.3 million compared to $11.4 million in Q4 2011, a decrease of $4.1 million (36%). Revenue in the Software and Data segment increased by $1.8 million (68%) due to a large data transaction completed during Q4 2012. Revenue in the Seismic Data segment decreased by $3.9 million (82%) attributable to the timing of multi- client surveys. In Q4 2012, the Company incurred $3.5 million in costs on a 3D seismic survey that was completed in Q1 2013. However there were a number of seismic data sales that did not close until Q1 2013. Revenue in the Services segment decreased by $2.1 million (49%) as demand for seismic processing and land management services was weaker, while demand for geomatics was slightly stronger. Operating expenses decreased by $1.2 million (16%) to $7 million in Q4 2012 from $8.2 million in Q4 2011. Salaries and wages were up $101,000 (2%). G&A expenses were down $1.4 million (35%) as occupancy costs decreased by $1 million (45%) due to the Company surrendering a portion of its office space lease in 2011 and 2012. Professional fees decreased by $882,000 (61%), bad debt expense increased by $807,000 and direct selling costs decreased by $246,000 (80%). Depreciation and amortization decreased by $2.5 million (66%) mainly due to lower depreciation on seismic data as we completed a survey in Q4 2011 and did not complete any surveys in Q4 2012. Year ended December 31, 2012 Divestco generated net income for year ended December 31, 2012 of $1.3 million ($0.02 per share - basic and diluted) compared to a net loss of $4.6 million ($0.08 per share - basic and diluted) for 2011. EBITDA was $12.4 million, a $6.3 million (102%) increase from $6.1 million for 2011. The Company generated funds from operations of $11.7 million ($0.17 per share - basic and diluted) for 2012, an increase of $6 million (103%) as compared to $5.7 million ($0.10 per share - basic and diluted) for 2011. EBITDA and funds from operations do not include capital expenditures of $12.6 million, mainly comprised of the cost of acquiring new seismic surveys data during 2012. During the year ended December 31, 2012, Divestco generated revenue of $39.6 million compared to $40.5 million for 2011, a decrease of $0.9 million (2%). Revenue in the Software and Data segment increased by $3.3 million (35%) primarily due to two significant data transactions completed in 2012. Revenue in the Seismic Data segment decreased by $466,000 (3%) due to lower seismic brokerage revenue. However, the Company completed three seismic participation surveys, signed a large data library sale and reached a settlement agreement concerning one of its legal actions in 2012 related to seismic data revenues that were due to the Company. Revenue in the Services segment decreased by $3.7 million (21%) since demand for seismic processing and land management services was weaker and only partially offset by stronger demand for geomatics services. Operating expenses decreased by $7.3 million (21%) to $27.2 million in 2012 from $34.5 million in 2011. Salaries and wages were down $1.1 million (6%) due to lower severance costs. G&A expenses were down $6.2 million (39%) as occupancy costs decreased by $4.8 million (51%) due to the Company surrendering a portion of its office space lease in 2011. Communication expenses were down $182,000 (40%), professional fees decreased by $1.3 million (42%) and direct selling costs decreased by $993,000 (73%), partially offset by an increase in bad debt expense by $918,000. Depreciation and amortization increased by $742,000 (7%) mainly due to the completion of three seismic participation surveys during 2012, partially offset by lower depreciation on property and equipment and deferred development costs. Working Capital Divestco ended fiscal 2012 with a working capital deficit of $7.5 million (December 31, 2011: $0.3 million surplus), excluding deferred revenue of $2.4 million (December 31, 2011 - $4.6 million). The decline in working capital from the end of 2011 was primarily due to an unpredictably slow Q3 and Q4 that directly impacted the Services segment and delayed the signing and delivery of several seismic data contracts. While the Company significantly reduced its payables since the end of 2011, receivables fell sharply as well. In addition, $843,000 of the subordinated loan was reclassified from long-term to current liabilities as compared to December 31, 2011 as the loan matures in May 2013. The Company's funded debt to equity ratio remained unchanged at 0.64:1 at December 31, 2012 from December 31, 2011 (0.64:1) as higher equity was offset by higher funded debt levels ($10.6 million at the end of 2012 compared to $9.4 million at the end of 2011). Seismic Update During 2012, Divestco completed three 3D seismic participation surveys (Brazeau, Big Valley and Ante Creek), covering an area of approximately 389 square kilometers. Total cost for the three seismic surveys was $14.3 million, with $5.1 million incurred in 2011. The Company also commenced another survey in Q4 2012 (Alder Flats) which was completed in Q1 2013. Mr. Stephen Popadynetz, CEO, President and CFO: "Over the last two years Divestco has made great strides to improve its efficiencies and cut costs. Unfortunately, in the third quarter of 2012, we saw an unexpected slowdown in the industry which resulted in a net loss. This carried over initially into Q4 2012, but by the end of the quarter we were witnessing activity levels returning to normal. As such, we are confident that the Company will return to profitability. As well, Divestco remains committed to strengthening its financial position and balance sheet and we have continued to optimize our all aspects of our G&A (including excess office space). We are also pleased with the progress we have made towards rebuilding our seismic data library. To date, we have added more than 860 square kilometers of seismic to our library. Overall demand for seismic data and general activity levels in the industry is trending positively and Divestco is currently reviewing a number of new seismic programs for the coming year. With the strong cost cutting measures taken over the last two years in place, Divestco is on a well-positioned path for sustained profitability and growth. We look forward to delivering positive earnings and improved results for our shareholders." Non-GAAP Measures The Company's condensed consolidated interim 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 additional 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. EBITDA is not a calculation based on IFRS and should not be considered an alternative 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 (loss): Three months ended Year ended December 31 December 31 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Thousands) 2012 2011 2012 2011 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net Income (Loss) $ (1,232) $ (768) $ 1,273 $ (4,610) Income Tax Expense - 25 (51) 86 Finance Costs 251 252 531 759 Depreciation and Amortization 1,292 3,823 10,646 9,904 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- EBITDA $ 311 $ 3,332 $ 12,399 $ 6,139 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Working capital Working Capital is calculated as current assets minus current liabilities (excluding deferred revenue). Working capital provides a measure that can be used to gauge Divestco's ability to meet its current obligations. Additional GAAP Measure 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 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 from operating activities: Three months ended Year ended December 31 December 31 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Thousands) 2012 2011 2012 2011 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cash from (used in ) Operating Activities $ (155) $ 3 $ 14,892 $ 5,093 Changes in Non-Cash Working Capital Balances Related to Operating Activities (85) 2,703 (3,408) 411 Interest Paid 219 202 374 593 Income Taxes Paid (Refunded) 31 - (184) (352) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Funds from Operations $ 10 $ 2,908 $ 11,674 $ 5,745 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Financial Highlights Financial Results (Thousands, Except Per Share Amounts) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Three months ended December 31 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2012 2011 $ Change % Change ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Revenue $ 7,270 $ 11,447 $ (4,177) -36% Operating Expenses 6,960 8,248 (1,288) -16% Other Loss (Income) (1) (133) 132 N/A ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- EBITDA 311 3,332 (3,021) -91% Finance Costs 251 252 (1) 0% Depreciation and Amortization 1,292 3,823 (2,531) -66% ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Income (Loss) before Income Taxes (1,232) (743) (489) N/A Income Tax Expense - 25 (25) -100% ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net Income (Loss) $ (1,232) $ (768) $ (464) N/A Per Share - Basic and Diluted (0.02) (0.01) (0.01) N/A ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Funds from Operations $ 10 $ 2,908 $ (2,898) -100% Per Share - Basic and Diluted - 0.05 (0.05) -100% ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shares Outstanding 66,758 66,610 N/A N/A Weighted Average Shares Outstanding Basic 66,738 60,575 N/A N/A Diluted 66,738 60,575 N/A N/A ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Year ended December 31 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2012 2011 $ Change % Change ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Revenue $ 39,628 $ 40,464 $ (836) -2% Operating Expenses 27,189 34,485 (7,296) -21% Other Loss (Income) 40 (160) 200 N/A ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- EBITDA 12,399 6,139 6,260 102% Finance Costs 531 759 (228) -30% Depreciation and Amortization 10,646 9,904 742 7% ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Income (Loss) before Income Taxes 1,222 (4,524) 5,746 N/A Income Tax Expense (51) 86 (137) N/A ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net Income (Loss) $ 1,273 $ (4,610) $ 5,883 N/A Per Share - Basic and Diluted 0.02 (0.08) 0.10 N/A ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Funds from Operations $ 11,674 $ 5,745 $ 5,929 103% Per Share - Basic and Diluted 0.17 0.10 0.07 70% ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shares Outstanding 66,758 66,610 N/A N/A Weighted Average Shares Outstanding Basic 66,679 59,797 N/A N/A Diluted 66,679 59,797 N/A N/A ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Financial Position (Thousands) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Balance at Balance at Balance at Dec 31 Dec 31 Dec 31 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2012 2011 2010 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Assets $ 41,945 $ 43,761 $ 34,984 Working Capital (Deficit) (1) (7,483) 297 3,599 Long-Term Financial Liabilities (2) 7,622 8,610 3,907 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- (1) Excludes the current portion of deferred revenue of $2.4 million (December 31, 2011: $4.6 million; December 31, 2010: $3.9 million) (2) Includes long-term debt obligations, deferred rent obligations, sublease loss provision and other long-term liabilities.
