Quarterly Report
Ternitz - 28 November 2019.
- Profit before tax amounted to MEUR 43
- Cashflow from operating activities multiplied by a factor of six to MEUR 75
Schoeller-Bleckmann Oilfield Equipment AG (SBO), which is listed in the ATX, the
leading index of the Vienna Stock Exchange, generated a sound result in the
first three quarters of 2019. Sales rose by 11.3 % to MEUR 345.9, the operating
income (EBIT) remained stable at MEUR 54.5. With an EBIT margin of 15.8 %, SBO
is one of the most profitable companies in the leading ATX index. Profit before
tax amounted to MEUR 43.5, a plus of 4.6 %. Profit after tax came to MEUR 26.6.
Cashflow from operating activities was strong and more than multiplied by a
factor of six to MEUR 74.7.
Gerald Grohmann, Chief Executive Officer of SBO, says: "The first nine months of
2019 went well for SBO. While former pacesetter North America has slowed down
significantly this year, international markets have gradually been catching up
as their activities were on the increase. We had experienced these different
market situations before and consistently pursue our course."
Sound Business Performance
SBO's sales increased by 11.3 % to MEUR 345.9 in the first three quarters of
2019 (1-9/2018: MEUR 310.8). Bookings remained stable at MEUR 376.5, compared to
MEUR 368.1 in the reference period of last year. The order backlog at the end of
September 2019 was MEUR 131.3 (31 December 2018: MEUR 97.7).
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA)
increased from MEUR 89.8 in the first three quarters of 2018 to MEUR 91.6 in
2019. EBITDA margin arrived at 26.5 %, which is above the long-term average of
24.3 %. Profit from operations (EBIT) stood at MEUR 54.5 (1-9/2018: MEUR 54.3),
EBIT margin was 15.8 %. Profit before tax increased by 4.6 % to MEUR 43.5,
compared to MEUR 41.6 in the first three quarters of 2018. Profit after tax
decreased to MEUR 26.6 because of higher tax expenses than in the previous year
(1-9/2018: MEUR 33.0). Earnings per share came to EUR 1.67 (1-9/2018: EUR 2.07).
As announced at mid-year, the two North American well completion subsidiaries of
SBO, Downhole Technology and Resource Well Completion Technologies, were
combined as of 1 October 2019 under the name "The WellBoss Company".
"Despite the slow development in North America, we took full advantage of the
growing international momentum and achieved a solid result. Bookings are again
higher than sales, which we regard as a positive signal. We are working very
actively to supply our customers with new technologies and to further strengthen
our service. With the combination of our Well Completion companies our customers
get the best of both product worlds from a single source and benefit from our
joint innovative capacity going forward. At the same time, we are strengthening
international distribution of our well completion products," says CEO Gerald
Grohmann.
Healthy Balance Sheet, Cashflow rises sharply
The balance sheet structure of SBO is sound. SBO's equity went up to MEUR 400.5
(31 December 2018: MEUR 368.2), and the equity ratio arrived at 43.9 % (31
December 2018: 40.9 %). Net debt fell to MEUR 31.5 (31 December 2018: MEUR
62.5). Liquid funds increased to MEUR 260.4 (31 December 2018: MEUR 241.5).
Cashflow from operating activities developed highly positively, arriving at MEUR
74.7 at the end of the third quarter of 2019, more than multiplying by a factor
of six compared to the previous year (1-9/2018: MEUR 12.1). Capital expenditure
for property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets (CAPEX) came to MEUR
23.9 (exclusive of lease assets) (1-9/2018: MEUR 24.9).
Outlook
The market environment for the oilfield service industry will remain impacted by
economic uncertainty as a result of the unresolved trade conflict between the
USA and China. Internationally, experts expect the growth to continue, albeit
there may be differences between regions. After years of crisis in the oil and
gas industry, there is an increasing awareness of the need for spending to avoid
supply bottlenecks in the medium term, provided that the development of the
global economy is reasonably sound. In North America, by contrast, it is
becoming apparent that declining spending coupled with an above-average natural
depletion rate will lead to a significant slowdown in production growth. This
should have a positive effect on the oil price in the medium term and thus on
spending in this sector.
"We see a positive effect in our order books due to international spending for
exploration and production of oil and gas. There is still a lot of catching up
to do and that will increase as demand is growing. If the economy continues to
be buoyant, spending behavior should be further stimulated," says CEO Gerald
Grohmann. "The development of efficient, high-quality products is an integral
part of our sustainable growth strategy. This will help us to strengthen our
positioning in all markets. It is the area of Well Completion where we have
recently succeeded in developing efficiency-enhancing innovations which we will
now market worldwide."
