- Increased focus on growing Utility T&D business with exit of US Mainline Pipeline business; no impact on
Facilities, Pipeline Integrity or Lineal businesses
- Term Loan amendment increases covenant flexibility
- Company to host conference call at 9am CT on November 9, 2017
HOUSTON, Nov. 08, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Willbros Group, Inc. (NYSE:WG) today reported an operating loss of
$27.8 million in the third quarter of 2017 compared to an operating loss of $6.3 million in the third quarter of 2016.
Revenue in the third quarter of 2017 totaled $240.8 million, an increase of $13.3 million sequentially and compares to $174.8
million in the third quarter of 2016. Operating results for the third quarter of 2017 include $13.0 million of losses on three
pipeline projects in the Oil & Gas segment and margin erosion in the Utility T&D segment on two
projects plus customer volume reserves totaling $8.4 million.
For the third quarter of 2017, the Company reported a loss from continuing operations of $32.7 million, or
$(0.52) per share, compared to a loss from continuing operations of $10.7 million, or $(0.17) per share, in the third quarter of
2016. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations was $(23.5) million for the third quarter of 2017 compared to $0.3 million
for the third quarter of 2016.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, loss from continuing operations was $51.6 million, or $(0.83) per
share, compared to a $29.7 million loss from continuing operations, or $(0.49) per share, for the nine months ended September 30,
2016. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations was $(27.0) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to
$3.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.
On November 6, 2017, the Company reached agreement with its lender to borrow an additional $15 million under its
Term Loan and to amend the associated financial covenants. This amendment provides for a covenant holiday for the third and fourth
quarter of 2017 and less stringent covenants for all of 2018.
Michael J. Fournier, President and CEO, commented, “The operating loss in the third quarter is a disappointment.
While we may recover some of the project cost overruns through future change orders, these operating results required us to enhance
our liquidity and seek covenant relief from our lender. Further, the risk profile we have experienced with our U.S. mainline
pipeline business is not sustainable. Thus, we intend to exit this business and are in exclusive discussions with a potential
buyer. These actions do not impact our U.S. facilities, pipeline integrity or Lineal businesses.
We will be assessing options to refinance our debt agreements during the first half of 2018 and we are pursuing
a strategic process to accelerate expansion of our Utility T&D business.”
Included in this press release are certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA from
continuing operations and Covenant EBITDA from continuing operations. A related reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP
measures is included in the accompanying schedules.
Backlog
At September 30, 2017, the Company reported total backlog of $741.3 million, a decrease of $67.3 million from
the June 30, 2017 balance. Twelve month backlog of $543.9 million at September 30, 2017 reflects a small decrease from the
$546.9 million reported at June 30, 2017. A substantial portion of the total backlog decline is attributable to the
expiration of existing multi-year MSA contracts. We will rebid these MSA’s as they come up for renewal but we do not include
these new contracts in backlog until they are signed.
Segment Operating Results
Utility T&D
The Utility T&D segment reported revenue in the third quarter of $129.9 million, down $21.8
million, or 14%, sequentially and primarily due to reduced transmission work in our Chapman business unit. Driven primarily by
lower revenue, margin erosion on two discrete projects and recognition of a volume reserve triggered by receipt of a new customer
forecast for 2017 services, the segment generated an operating loss of $7.5 million in the third quarter of 2017 compared to
operating income of $11.0 million in the second quarter of 2017.
Oil & Gas
For the third quarter of 2017, the Oil & Gas segment reported revenue of $75.3 million, up 54%
sequentially as the mainline pipeline and Lineal businesses operated at high activity levels throughout the quarter. Three projects
were located in the same area and hampered by weather and terrain issues, along with other operating issues. Losses on these
projects contributed to an operating loss of $14.8 million for the segment in the third quarter of 2017.
Canada
Canada reported revenue of $35.6 million for the third quarter of 2017, an $8.9 million increase when
compared to the second quarter of 2017. Revenue in the maintenance business has returned to near historical levels towards the end
of the third quarter while activity associated with our industrial and pipeline construction businesses remain depressed. The
segment operated at near break-even status as it reported an operating loss of $0.3 million in the third quarter of 2017.
Liquidity and Debt
Total liquidity (defined as cash and cash equivalents plus revolver availability) at September 30, 2017 was
$48.8 million, a decrease of $1.8 million from the end of the second quarter of 2017. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $31.3
million at September 30, 2017. During the third quarter of 2017 we borrowed $12 million under the revolving credit facility, plus
an additional $17 million on November 6, 2017, to support our working capital and operating needs. The revolving credit facility
expires in August 2018.
At September 30, 2017, the principal amount due on our Term Loan remained unchanged from the prior quarter at
$92.2 million. With the recent amendment to our Term Loan, the principal balance will increase to $107.2 million.
Guidance
Jeff Kappel, Willbros Chief Financial Officer, commented, “We are reaffirming revenue guidance for 2017 to range
between $850 million to $900 million, excluding the Tank Services business. For 2018, we anticipate revenue to range between $750
million and $825 million, excluding the U.S. Mainline Pipeline and Tank Services businesses.”

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is defined
as income (loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation and
amortization, adjusted for items broadly consisting of selected items which management does not consider representative of our
ongoing operations and certain non-cash items of the Company. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations
as a supplemental performance measure for comparing normalized operating results with corresponding historical periods and with
the operational performance of other companies in our industry and for presentations made to analysts, investment banks and
other members of the financial community who use this information in order to make investment decisions about us.
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is not a financial measurement recognized under U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles, or U.S. GAAP. When analyzing our operating performance, investors should use Adjusted EBITDA from continuing
operations in addition to, and not as an alternative for, net income, operating income, or any other performance measure
derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our
liquidity. Because all companies do not use identical calculations, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA from continuing
operations may be different from similarly titled measures of other companies.

Covenant EBITDA from continuing operations is a
non-GAAP measure that conforms to the definition of Consolidated EBITDA in the Company's 2014 Term Credit Agreement which
includes certain special items. Management uses Covenant EBITDA from continuing operations to determine the Company's
compliance with certain financial covenants under the 2014 Term Credit Agreement. |

Backlog is anticipated contract revenue from
uncompleted portions of existing contracts and contracts whose award is reasonably assured. Master Service Agreement
("MSA") backlog is estimated for the remaining term of the contract. MSA backlog is determined based on historical trends
inherent in the MSAs, factoring in seasonal demand and projecting customer needs based on ongoing communications. Backlog
is not a term recognized under U.S. GAAP; however, it is a common measurement used in our industry.
