INDEPENDENCE, Ohio, March 10, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Covia (NYSE:CVIA), a leading provider of mineral-based and material solutions for the Industrial and Energy markets, today announced results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2019. As a result of the merger that closed on June 1, 2018, Covia’s 2018 reported results under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) include the consolidated financial results of both Unimin Corporation (“Unimin”) and Fairmount Santrol Holdings Inc. (“Fairmount Santrol”) for the seven months ended December 31, 2018, as well as the stand-alone results for Unimin for the five months ended May 31, 2018, including the high-purity quartz (“HPQ”) business reported as discontinued operations. Selected pro forma financial results, which reflect combined Unimin and Fairmount Santrol operations prior to the merger and exclude HPQ results, have been provided as exhibits with this release.
“Covia demonstrated strong execution capabilities in 2019 in the face of challenging market conditions,” said Richard Navarre, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our Industrial segment delivered a good year with profitability growth outside of the divested businesses. We continued to reposition and restructure our Energy segment, including the idling of more than 15 million tons of capacity, commissioning our in-basin production facilities, reducing our railcar fleet by more than 3,000 cars, and eliminating approximately $195 million in railcar purchase obligations. Finally, we took meaningful steps to improve cash flow through reduced capital expenditures, lower working capital, and non-core asset divestitures, resulting in a $256 million net debt reduction in 2019.”
Mr. Navarre added, “Recent events are expected to create a challenging environment in our Energy segment; however, we will remain focused on operating safely, controlling costs, and reliably delivering consistent, high-quality products to our Energy customers. We believe our Industrial segment is poised for long-term growth as we leverage our recently commissioned Canoitas, Mexico expansion, drive further cost reductions within our operations, invest in our nepheline syenite operations in Canada, and expand our product portfolio.”
Full Year 2019 Results
- Total volumes of 30.5 million tons, a decrease of 13% compared to 2018 on a pro forma basis, driven by lower Energy volumes.
- Total revenues of $1.6 billion, a decrease of 31% compared to 2018 on a pro forma basis, due mainly to lower Energy volumes and pricing.
- Gross profit of $276.3 million, a decrease of $344.0 million compared to 2018 on a pro forma basis.
- Selling, general and administrative expenses of $153.6 million, a decrease of 19% compared to 2018 on a pro forma basis.
- Net loss from continuing operations of $1,290.1 million, including the negative impact of a $1,434.1 million in non-cash asset impairment charges. This compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $185.5 million in 2018 on a pro forma basis.
- Adjusted EBITDA of $143.0 million, compared to $455.9 million in 2018 on a pro forma basis.
Fourth Quarter 2019 Results
- Total volumes decreased 16% both sequentially and compared to the fourth quarter of 2018 to 6.6 million tons.
- Total revenues decreased 23% sequentially to $313.3 million, and decreased 29% compared to the fourth quarter of 2018.
- Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $37.4 million, compared to $35.6 million in the third quarter of 2019 and $45.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2018.
- Fourth quarter 2019 selling, general and administrative expenses include $1.7 million in non-cash stock compensation expense. In the third quarter of 2019 and fourth quarter of 2018, non-cash stock compensation totaled $2.3 million and $2.4 million, respectively.
- Net loss from continuing operations totaled $1,257.2 million, a sequential decrease of $1,311.0 million and down $1,209.1 million from the fourth quarter of 2018. The decrease was driven by a $1,426.4 million non-cash impairment charge primarily related to Northern White sand and logistical assets in our Energy segment.
- Adjusted EBITDA of $0.1 million, compared to $43.2 million in the third quarter of 2019 and $43.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2018.
The Company’s fourth quarter 2019 Adjusted EBITDA was negatively impacted by pricing declines for proppants and lower Northern White volumes. The significant decline in volumes resulted in the Company placing approximately 6,000 rail cars in storage in the fourth quarter. In total, the Company incurred excess railcar and idled plant costs of $14.2 million during the fourth quarter and $35.1 million during 2019.
Fourth Quarter 2019 Segment Results
Industrial Segment
- Volumes decreased 7% to 3.2 million tons compared to the fourth quarter of 2018, driven primarily by the sale of the Calera lime business (“Calera”) and reduced foundry volumes as a result of the General Motors strike. This was partially offset by strength in building products which benefited from solid end market demand and the addition of new customers.
- Excluding the Calera and the Winchester and Western Railroad (“W&W”) businesses, which were sold during the third quarter of 2019, volumes declined 4% compared to the fourth quarter of 2018.
- Revenues decreased 13% to $161.4 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2018, driven primarily by the sale of Calera and W&W, as well as lower transportation-related revenues.
- Excluding Calera and W&W and transportation-related revenues, segment revenues decreased 1% compared to the fourth quarter of 2018.
- Segment gross profit and segment contribution margin of $46.4 million, both of which decreased $4.1 million, or 8%, from the fourth quarter of 2018, due mainly to the sale of Calera and W&W, partially offset by increased pricing.
- Segment gross profit increased 2% compared to the fourth quarter of 2018, excluding Calera and W&W.
Energy Segment
- Volumes decreased 21% sequentially to 3.3 million tons, in-line with the market decrease in completions activity during the period.
- Revenues decreased 32% sequentially to $151.9 million, driven primarily by lower volumes and a $3.70 per ton decrease in pricing on a like-for-like basis. The pricing decrease was driven primarily by the full-quarter impact of concessions made late in the third quarter of 2019.
- Segment gross loss of $12.5 million compared to segment gross profit of $17.7 million in the third quarter of 2019.
- Segment contribution margin of $1.7 million compared to $24.6 million on the third quarter of 2019. The decrease was driven primarily by lower pricing and lower fixed-cost absorption.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
- Cash and cash equivalents of $319.5 million as of December 31, 2019.
- Generated cash flow from operations of $35.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 and $103.9 million for 2019.
- Capital expenditures totaled $12.5 million during the fourth quarter of 2019, primarily related to maintenance capital and the Canoitas plant expansion in Mexico to support customer growth.
- Received a commitment from PNC Bank, National Association for a new, 3-year standby credit facility with expected availability of $75 million secured by the Company’s U.S. accounts receivable. The Company expects to close on this facility near the end of the first quarter of 2020.
Update on Industrial Growth Projects
The Company expects to complete the modernization and expansion of its Canadian nepheline syenite facility by the middle of 2021. The world class facility will be the only one of its kind in North America serving coatings, polymers, glass and ceramic end markets. Nepheline syenite is a unique, hard rock, silica-deficient mineral resource which enhances deep color tones, reduces fading and adds abrasion resistance to architectural paints. The material also provides superior anti-blocking capabilities for packaging films and has been approved for use in food-based applications by the FDA. The modernization and expansion is expected to reduce operating costs by $9 million annually and save more than $30 million in maintenance capital over the next 10 years. Additionally, the facility will add needed production capacity to serve our growing market share in the coatings and polymers end markets. The total remaining capital investment is estimated to be $45 million, of which $20-25 million is expected to be invested in 2020.
The Company also completed its expansion at its Canoitas, Mexico facility in fourth quarter of 2019. This expansion adds 350 thousand tons of annual silica production capacity and is expected to be used to support growth for customers in Mexico beginning in the second quarter of 2020.
Outlook
Based on preliminary results through February, the Company expects first quarter 2020 Industrial volumes to be in the range of 3.3 million to 3.4 million tons and Energy volumes to be up 10% to 15% sequentially. Adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter is expected to be between $22 million and $27 million.
The unknown impact of the Covid-19 virus and fluctuating oil and gas prices on market conditions makes forecasting 2020 challenging. The Company expects 2020 selling, general and administrative expenses to be between $135 million and $145 million, which includes approximately $10 million in non-cash stock compensation. The Company expects 2020 capital expenditures to be in the range of $60 million to $70 million, of which $20 million to $25 million is related to the modernization and expansion of the nepheline syenite operations in Canada.
Use of Certain Non-GAAP and Adjusted Financial Measures
Covia reports its financial results in accordance with GAAP. However, Covia’s management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures help to facilitate comparisons of Company operating performance across periods. This release includes segment contribution margin, segment contribution margin per ton, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures, including on a pro forma basis. Covia may also present other non-GAAP financial measures which are identified as “adjusted” results. A reconciliation of all non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures is provided in exhibits attached to this release. Covia defines segment contribution margin as gross profit excluding any selling, general and administrative costs and corporate costs, and also excludes operating costs of idled facilities and excess railcar capacity. Covia defines segment contribution margin per ton as gross profit excluding any selling, general and administrative costs and corporate costs, and also excludes operating costs of idled facilities and excess railcar capacity divided by tons sold. Covia defines EBITDA as net income from continuing operations before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation, depletion and amortization, and adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA before non-cash stock-based compensation, merger-related expenses, restructuring charges, asset impairments and certain other income or expenses. Covia defines pro forma EBITDA as net income from continuing operations before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation, depletion and amortization for the combined Unimin and Fairmount Santrol operations for the periods reported and excludes HPQ results. Adjusted pro forma EBITDA is defined by Covia as pro forma EBITDA before non-cash stock-based compensation, merger-related expenses, restructuring charges asset impairments and certain other income or expenses. Pro forma financial results for 2018 and 2017, as shown in the exhibits attached to this release, include combined results of operations for Fairmount Santrol and Unimin for periods preceding the June 1, 2018 merger. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for the financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should be viewed in addition to the results as reported by Covia. Covia also believes segment contribution margin, pro forma EBITDA and pro forma adjusted EBITDA are useful because they allow management to more effectively evaluate the Company’s operational performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period without regard to the Company’s financing costs or capital structure.

About the Merger
On June 1, 2018, Unimin completed a business combination (“merger”) whereby Fairmount Santrol, now known as Bison Merger Sub I, LLC, merged into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Unimin and ceased to exist as a separate corporate entity. Immediately following the consummation of the merger, Unimin changed its name to Covia Holdings Corporation and began operating under that name. The common stock of Fairmount Santrol was delisted from the NYSE prior to the market opening on June 1, 2018, and Covia commenced trading under the ticker symbol “CVIA” on that same date.

(1) 2018 Pre-Merger financial results are for Fairmount Santrol Holdings Inc. ("Fairmount Santrol"), for the two and five months ended May 31, 2018, the day before the merger between Fairmount Santrol and Unimin Corporation ("Unimin") occurred on June 1, 2018. Such results are based on Fairmount Santrol's unaudited internal financial statements and have been prepared on a basis substantially consistent with Fairmount Santrol's prior audited financial statements, but have not been reviewed by the Company's independent auditors. Both Fairmount Santrol and Unimin reported financial results on a calendar fiscal year. | ||||||||||||||
(2) The unaudited Covia Pro Forma Combined financial results include the aggregate results of operations for legacy Fairmount Santrol and legacy Unimin for periods preceding the June 1, 2018 merger. | ||||||||||||||
(3) In the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2019, Energy segment gross profit was negatively impacted by the $1.8 million and $7.9 million, respectively, of operating lease expense incurred related to intangible assets that were reclassified to Operating right-of-use assets, net on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, as a result of the adoption of ASC 842. The expense, previously recognized as non-cash amortization expense, is now recognized in Cost of goods sold (excluding depreciation, depletion, and amortization shown separately) on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss). | ||||||||||||||
As a result of the June 1, 2018 merger, legacy Fairmount Santrol inventories were written up to fair value under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). For the year ended December 31, 2019, $1.1 million of this write-up was expensed through cost of goods sold, thereby reducing segment gross profit. There was no write-up in the three months ended December 31, 2019. Of the $1.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2019, $0.4 million impacted the Energy segment and $0.7 million impacted the Industrial segment. | ||||||||||||||
(4) We define segment contribution margin as segment revenue less segment cost of sales, excluding any depreciation, depletion and amortization expenses, selling, general, and administrative costs, and operating costs of idled facilities and excess railcar capacity. Operating costs of idled facilities and excess railcar capacity costs, which are both entirely attributable to the Energy segment, were $14.2 million and $7.9 million in the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $35.1 million and $17.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Segment contribution margin and segment contribution margin per ton are non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures is provided in tables that follow. | ||||||||||||||

(1) 2018 Pre-Merger financial results are for Fairmount Santrol Holdings Inc. ("Fairmount Santrol"), for the two and five months ended May 31, 2018, the day before the merger between Fairmount Santrol and Unimin Corporation ("Unimin") occurred on June 1, 2018. Such results are based on Fairmount Santrol's unaudited internal financial statements and have been prepared on a basis substantially consistent with Fairmount Santrol's prior audited financial statements, but have not been reviewed by the Company's independent auditors. Both Fairmount Santrol and Unimin reported financial results on a calendar fiscal year. | ||||||||||||||
(2) The unaudited Covia Pro Forma Combined financial results include the aggregate results of operations for legacy Fairmount Santrol and legacy Unimin for periods preceding the June 1, 2018 merger. | ||||||||||||||
(3) In the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2019, Energy segment gross profit was negatively impacted by the $1.8 million and $7.9 million, respectively, of operating lease expense incurred related to intangible assets that were reclassified to Operating right-of-use assets, net on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, as a result of the adoption of ASC 842. The expense, previously recognized as non-cash amortization expense, is now recognized in Cost of goods sold (excluding depreciation, depletion, and amortization shown separately) on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss). | ||||||||||||||
As a result of the June 1, 2018 merger, legacy Fairmount Santrol inventories were written up to fair value under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). For the year ended December 31, 2019, $1.1 million of this write-up was expensed through cost of goods sold, thereby reducing segment gross profit. There was no write-up in the three months ended December 31, 2019. Of the $1.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2019, $0.4 million impacted the Energy segment and $0.7 million impacted the Industrial segment. | ||||||||||||||
(4) We define segment contribution margin as segment revenue less segment cost of sales, excluding any depreciation, depletion and amortization expenses, selling, general, and administrative costs, and operating costs of idled facilities and excess railcar capacity. Operating costs of idled facilities and excess railcar capacity costs, which are both entirely attributable to the Energy segment, were $14.2 million and $7.9 million in the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $35.1 million and $17.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Segment contribution margin and segment contribution margin per ton are non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures is provided in tables that follow. | ||||||||||||||
