Alaris Royalty Corp. Releases Second Quarter Financial Results
CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - July 28, 2015) -
NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION IN THE UNITED STATES. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS RESTRICTION MAY CONSTITUTE A VIOLATION OF UNITED STATES SECURITIES LAW.
Alaris Royalty Corp. ("Alaris" or the "Corporation") (TSX:AD) is pleased to announce its results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015.
The results of the quarter are summarized in four key performance metrics compared to the prior year period on a per share basis (the Corporation used Normalized EBITDA rather than EBITDA to back out the non-cash foreign exchange gains and losses and a 2015 gain on the sale of Killick Aerospace Limited Partnership ("Killick")):
| Per Share | Three months ending June 30 | Six months ending June 30 | ||||||||
| 2015 | 2014 | % Change | 2015 | 2014 | % Change | |||||
| Revenue | $ | 0.55 | $ | 0.55 | - | $ | 1.14 | $ | 1.11 | +2.7% |
| Normalized EBITDA | $ | 0.43 | $ | 0.41 | +4.9% | $ | 0.93 | $ | 0.90 | +3.3% |
| Dividends | $ | 0.38 | $ | 0.365 | +4.1% | $ | 0.755 | $ | 0.725 | +4.1% |
| Net cash from operating activities | $ | 0.35 | $ | 0.45 | -22.2% | $ | 0.71 | $ | 0.80 | -11.3% |
| Weighted average basic shares outstanding (000's) | 32,175 | 28,902 | 32,166 | 28,808 | ||||||
Gross revenue from private company partners ("Partners") increased by 8.9% and 14.6% for the three and six months ending June 30, 2015, and on a per share basis revenue was flat for the 3 months ending June 30, 2015 and up 2.7% for the six months ending June 30, 2015 when compared to the prior year period. The growth levels are lower than previous periods due to no revenue being accrued for KMH Limited Partnership ("KMH") in the second quarter as well as the Killick redemption in early 2015. However, new accretive partnerships and organic growth in current partners contributed to increases in revenue, Normalized EBITDA and dividends paid on a per share basis.
Net cash from operating activities on a per share basis decreased by 22.2% and 11.3% in the three and six months ending June 30, 2015 due to a $6.8 million deposit paid to the CRA in period. Adding back the CRA deposit results in net cash from operating activities of $0.56 per share (a 24% increase for the three month period) and net cash from operating activities of $0.92 per share (a 15% increase for the six month period).
Subsequent to June 30, 2015, the Corporation completed a follow-on contribution to PF Growth Partners, LLC ("Planet Fitness") for $5.0 million in preferred units in order to support growth initiatives at Planet Fitness. The units have an annualized distribution of $0.7 million (14% return). Additionally, on July 16, 2015, the Corporation closed an equity offering that provided $109.7 million of net proceeds, almost all of which was applied against the senior credit facility resulting in senior debt of $35.2 million at July 28, 2015 compared to $144.2 million as at June 30, 2015.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Corporation recorded earnings of $8.95 million and $30.8 million, EBITDA of $12.7 million and $40.3 million and Normalized EBITDA of $13.8 million and $29.9 million compared to earnings of $8.75 million and $20.70 million, EBITDA of $9.0 million and $25.48 million and Normalized EBITDA of $11.9 million and $25.8 million in the prior year periods. The increase was due to the addition of four new Partners in the past 12 months: Kimco Holdings, LLC ("Kimco"), Planet Fitness, DNT Construction, LLC ("DNT") and Federal Resources Supply Company ("Federal Resources") and follow on investments into Solowave Design, LP ("Solowave"), Sequel Youth and Family Services, LLC ("Sequel") and SM Group International, LP ("SMi"). Each of these transactions added new revenues in the current period compared to the prior year. These new revenues were partially offset by two redemptions in the last twelve months: Quetico, LLC ("Quetico") in November 2014 and Killick in January 2015 as well as a decline in revenue from KMH as it undergoes a strategic process. Expenses were as expected in the quarter.
At each quarter end, the Corporation reviews the fair value of the preferred units in each of the Partners. At June 30, 2015, there were seven changes to the fair values of the Partners for a net increase in fair values of $2.2 million: an increase to Sequel's units of $4.71 million due to better than expected same program sales performance for Sequel's year ended June 30, 2015; an increase in the LifeMark Health Limited Partnership ("LifeMark") units of $1.48 million as the repurchase right LifeMark has on the units increases by 4% in June of each year; an increase in the Solowave units of $1.97 million due to better than expected performance; a reduction to the KMH units of $2 million due to a reduction in expectations from the strategic process that is underway; a reduction to the SCR Mining and Tunneling, LP ("SCR") units of $2.5 million, a reduction to the Agility Health, LLC ("Agility") units of $0.91 million and a reduction to the Kimco units of $0.57 million, each due to a reduction in growth expectations. More information related to the financial performance of the Partners is provided in the Private Company Partner Update portion of the Corporation's Management's discussion and analysis for the period (a copy of which is available under Alaris' profile at www.sedar.com), which readers are encouraged to review.
"The second quarter was a significant one with two new partners in DNT ($87 million CAD) and Federal Resources ($58 million CAD), the ninth and tenth consecutive dividend increases and a successful equity offering that brought our debt outstanding down to $35.2 million as of July 28, 2015. The accretive transactions with new Partners, along with an accretive follow on contribution to Planet Fitness shortly after the quarter end, and net increases expected from our current Partner distribution resets are expected to continue to fuel our growth on a gross and per share basis in the quarters to follow," said Darren Driscoll, CFO, Alaris Royalty Corp.
Outlook
Alaris' agreements with its Partners provide for estimated revenues to Alaris of approximately $81.1 million for 2015 (no further distributions from KMH are included in this total). Revenues from our Partners for the three months ended September 30, 2015 are expected to be approximately $22.2 million (no further distributions from KMH are included in this total). After the successful equity offering closed on July 16, 2015, the Corporation has $35.2 million drawn on its $90.1 million credit facility (extended to $150.1 million until August 31, 2015). Annual general and administrative expenses are currently estimated at $7.0 million annually and include all public company costs. Cash requirements after earnings are expected to remain at minimal levels.

About the Corporation:
Alaris provides alternative financing to the Partners in exchange for distributions with the principal objective of generating stable and predictable cash flows for dividend payments to its shareholders. Distributions from the Partners are structured as a percentage of a "top line" financial performance measure such as gross margin and same-store sales and rank in priority to the owners' common equity position.
Non-IFRS Measures
The terms EBITDA, Normalized EBITDA and Per Share values are financial measures used in this news release that are not standard measures under International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). The Corporation's method of calculating EBITDA, Normalized EBITDA and Per Share values may differ from the methods used by other issuers. Therefore, the Corporation's EBITDA, Normalized EBITDA and Per Share values may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers.
EBITDA refers to net earnings (loss) determined in accordance with IFRS, before depreciation and amortization, interest expense and income tax expense. EBITDA is used by management and many investors to determine the ability of an issuer to generate cash from operations. Management believes EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure from which to determine the Corporation's ability to generate cash available for debt service, working capital, capital expenditures, income taxes and dividends.
Normalized EBITDA refers to EBITDA excluding items that are non-recurring in nature. Management deems non-recurring charges to be unusual and/or infrequent charges that the Corporation incurs outside of its common day-to-day operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the gain on the redemption of the Killick units and the unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses gain are considered by management to be non-recurring charges. Adjusting for these non-recurring items allows management to assess EBITDA from ongoing operations.
Per Share values, other than earnings per share, refer to the related financial statement caption as defined under IFRS or related term as defined herein, divided by the weighted average basic shares outstanding for the period.
The Non-IFRS measures should only be used in conjunction with the Corporation's annual audited statements, excerpts of which are available below, while complete versions are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. The Corporation has provided a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA and Normalized EBITDA in this news release.
Forward-Looking Statements
This news release contains forward-looking statements as defined under applicable securities laws. Statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this news release are forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, management's expectations, intentions and beliefs concerning the growth, results of operations, performance of the Corporation and the Partners, the future financial position or results of the Corporation, business strategy, and plans and objectives of or involving the Corporation or the Partners. Many of these statements can be identified by looking for words such as "believe", "expects", "will", "intends", "projects", "anticipates", "estimates", "continues" or similar words or the negative thereof. In particular, this news release contains forward-looking statements regarding the anticipated revenues to be received by Alaris (annually and on a quarterly basis), its general and administrative expenses in 2015, and the cash requirements of Alaris in 2015. To the extent any forward-looking statements herein constitute a financial outlook, including, without limitation, estimates of revenues and expenses, they were approved by management as of the date hereof and have been included to provide an understanding with respect to Alaris' financial performance and are subject to the same risks and assumptions disclosed herein. There can be no assurance that the plans, intentions or expectations upon which these forward looking statements are based will occur.
By their nature, forward-looking statements require Alaris to make assumptions and are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties. Assumptions about the performance of the Canadian and U.S. economies in 2015 and how that will affect Alaris' business and that of its Partners are material factors considered by Alaris management when setting the outlook for Alaris. Key assumptions include, but are not limited to, assumptions that the Canadian and U.S. economies will grow moderately over the next 12 months, that interest rates will not rise in a material way over the next 12 to 24 months, that the Partners will continue to make distributions to Alaris as and when required (or that Alaris will recover all or a substantial portion of an investment upon a default), that the businesses of the Partners will continue to grow, what the Corporation expects to experience regarding resets to its annual royalties and distributions from its Partners in 2015, and that Alaris will have the ability to raise required equity and/or debt financing on acceptable terms. Management of Alaris has also assumed that capital markets will remain stable. In determining expectations for economic growth, management of Alaris primarily considers historical economic data provided by the Canadian and U.S. governments and their agencies.
There can be no assurance that the assumptions, plans, intentions or expectations upon which these forward-looking statements are based will occur. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions and should not be read as guarantees or assurances of future performance. The actual results of the Corporation and the Partners could materially differ from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements contained herein as a result of certain risk factors, including, but not limited to, the following: the dependence of Alaris on the Partners; reliance on key personnel; general economic conditions; failure to complete or realize the anticipated benefit of Alaris' financing arrangements with the Partners; government regulations; failure to achieve a positive resolution out of KMH's strategic review process, a failure to obtain required regulatory approvals on a timely basis or at all; changes in legislation and regulations and the interpretations thereof; risks relating to the Partners and their businesses, including, without limitation, a material change in the operations of a Private Company Partner or the industries they operate in and a change in the ability of the Partners to continue to pay Alaris' preferred distributions; and a material adjustment to any unaudited financial information that a Partner provided to Alaris. Additional risks that may cause actual results to vary from those indicated are discussed under the heading "Risk Factors" in the Corporation's Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2014, which is filed under the Corporation's profile at www.sedar.com. Accordingly, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking information contained in this news release. Statements containing forward-looking information reflect management's current beliefs and assumptions based on information in its possession on the date of this news release.
