Walter Energy Announces Second Quarter 2012 Results

01.08.2012  |  Marketwire

BIRMINGHAM, AL -- (Marketwire) -- 08/01/12 -- Walter Energy Inc. (NYSE: WLT) (TSX: WLT)


  • Revenues of $678 Million; EPS of $0.51

  • Operating Income of $68 Million; EBITDA of $145 Million

  • EPS of $0.43 from Continuing Operations; EBITDA of $137 Million from Continuing Operations

  • Metallurgical Coal Production of 2.91 Million Metric Tons

  • Metallurgical Coal Sales of 2.84 Million Metric Tons


Walter Energy Inc. (NYSE: WLT) (TSX: WLT), the world's leading, publicly traded "pure-play" producer of metallurgical (met) coal for the global steel industry, today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2012.


For the second quarter 2012, revenues were $678 million as compared with $632 million in the first quarter and $771 million in the second quarter of 2011. Operating income in the second quarter was $68 million as compared with $84 million in the first quarter and $164 million in the second quarter of 2011. Net income for the quarter was $32 million or $0.51 per diluted share, $27 million or $0.43 per diluted share from continuing operations, compared with $41 million or $0.65 per diluted share in the first quarter, and $114 million or $1.83 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2011. The second quarter included a $5.2 million gain net of tax from the sale of a discontinued operation.


"Our metallurgical coal products continued to provide solid results," said Walt Scheller, Chief Executive Officer. "Metallurgical coal production of 2.91 million metric tons was in-line with our expectations and was achieved while further improving our safety record. Our overall costs were flat when compared with the first quarter, as improvements in the cost performance of hard coking coal production were mitigated by higher costs in producing low-vol PCI. We remain cautious for the outlook of the global economy and are focusing on cost reductions, restraining discretionary capital spending and stringently managing cash flow."

Metallurgical Sales Volume and Pricing


Second quarter 2012 met coal sales volume, including both hard coking coal (HCC) and low-volatility (vol) PCI, was a record 2.84 MMTs, an increase of 20 percent over first quarter sales volume of 2.37 MMTs. HCC sales volume was 2.29 MMTs, an increase of 23 percent compared with 1.86 MMTs in the first quarter 2012. PCI sales volume was 0.55 MMTs, up from 0.51 MMTs in the prior quarter.


The average second quarter 2012 selling price of low-vol and mid-vol HCC was $201 per MT, 11 percent lower than the first quarter. The average second quarter selling price for low-vol PCI was $164 per MT, a decrease of 13 percent from the first quarter.

Metallurgical Coal Production


Consolidated met coal production was 2.91 MMTs in the second quarter of 2012, comprised of 2.19 MMTs of hard coking coal or 75% of met production, and 720 thousand MTs of low-vol PCI coal or 25% of met production.

Cash Costs


The consolidated cash cost for HCC was $115 per MT in the second quarter, as compared with $116 per MT in the first quarter 2012. In the U.S. operations, the cash cost of HCC decreased to $107 per MT compared with $110 per MT the prior quarter. In the Canadian and U.K. operations, the cash cost of HCC was $144 per MT in the second quarter of 2012, down from $145 per MT in the first quarter 2012.


The cash cost for low-vol PCI was $218 per MT in the second quarter compared with $208 per MT in the first quarter as a result of higher mining waste removal volumes at the Brule PCI mine. The cash cost at the Willow Creek mine decreased to $259 per MT in the second quarter from $449 in the first quarter, and Willow Creek production increased from 120 thousand MTs in the first quarter to 154 thousand MTs in the second quarter.

Capital Expenditures


The Company's capital expenditures for the second quarter were $125 million and were $246 million for the first six months of 2012. The Company has reduced its planned 2012 capital spending to approximately $400 million from our initial plan of nearly $500 million.

2012 Production Guidance


The Company continues to forecast full-year 2012 met coal production between 11.5 and 13.0 MMTs, of which an estimated 75 percent to 80 percent will be HCC and the remainder will be low-vol PCI.

Liquidity


At the end of the second quarter 2012, available liquidity was $396 million, consisting of cash and cash equivalents of $129 million plus $267 million of availability under the Company's $375 million revolving credit facility. The Company repaid $100 million in aggregate of its term loan A and B obligations in the second quarter.

Safety and Stewardship Highlights


Walter Energy's U.S. operations reduced its total recordable injury rate by 34 percent in the second quarter of 2012 compared with the same period last year. Canadian and U.K. operations reduced their total reportable injury rate by 26 percent compared with the same period last year.


The Company is also pleased to announce that it received a Vision Award from the League of American Communications Professionals (LACP) in July for its 2011 Annual Report. In the annual report competition, Walter Energy rated Gold in a tie for second place in the energy sector for firms in the $1 billion to $10 billion revenue category.

(2) The 2011 second quarter includes $7.2 million of costs associated with
the acquisition of Western Coal.
(3) The 2012 second quarter includes losses on the remeasurement to fair
value of equity investments. The 2011 second quarter includes a gain
recognized on April 1, 2011 of $20.6 million as a result of remeasuring to
fair value Western Coal shares acquired from Audley Capital in January
2011.
(4) The provision for income taxes in the second quarter of 2012 at a rate
of 14.5% is based on an estimated effective annual tax rate for the year
as compared to 27.1% for the second quarter of 2011. The effective tax
rate for the second quarter of 2012 is lower than the second quarter 2011
tax rate, primarily due to a larger favorable impact of percentage
depletion and the change in the geographical mix of foreign income and
losses.
(5) Discontinued operations includes the gain on the sale of our closed
Kodiak operations, net of tax.

information have been recast to reflect the effects of finalizing the

(2) Average Cash Cost per Ton is based on reported Cost of Sales and
includes items such as freight, royalties, manpower, fuel and other similar
production and sales cost items but excludes depreciation, depletion and
post retirement benefits. Average Cash Cost per Ton is a non-GAAP financial
measure which is not calculated in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles (GAAP) and should be considered supplemental to, and
not as a substitute or superior to financial measures calculated in
conformity with GAAP. We believe Cash Cost per Ton is a useful measure as
our management uses that as a measure of performance and we believe it aids
some investors and analysts in comparing us against other companies to help
analyze our current and future potential performance.

30, 2011 balances have been recast to reflect the effects of finalizing

(2) EBITDA from continuing operations is defined as earnings excluding
discontinued operations before interest expense, interest income, income
taxes, and depreciation and depletion expense.
(3) EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest expense, interest income,
income taxes, and depreciation and depletion expense. EBITDA is a
financial measure which is not calculated in conformity with U.S.
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and should be considered
supplemental to, and not as a substitute or superior to financial measures
calculated in conformity with GAAP. We believe that EBITDA is a useful
measure as some investors and analysts use EBITDA to compare us against
other companies and to help analyze our ability to satisfy principal and
interest obligations and capital expenditure needs. EBITDA may not be
comparable to similarly titled measures used by other entities.
