BEVERLY, Mass., Oct. 26, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ATN International, Inc. (“ATN” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: ATNI), a leading provider of digital infrastructure and communications services, today reported results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

“We executed well on our strategic growth priorities and achieved a solid financial performance in the third quarter,” said Michael Prior, Chief Executive Officer of ATN. “Consistent with our ‘First-to-Fiber’ and ‘Glass and Steel’ strategies, we remained focused on being first to build and own modern, core digital infrastructure in the markets we serve. As a result, we continued to make steady progress across our key operational metrics, including the numbers of customers connected to and premises passed by our high-speed networks, which were up 13% and 15%, respectively, since the beginning of the year. Additionally, in the quarter we grew our international mobility subscriber base and mobility revenues by 9% and 11%, respectively, year over year.  These efforts continue to demonstrate our leadership across our operating areas and lay the foundation for our ongoing expansion in growing markets. 

“With steady demand for our enterprise and wholesale solutions, Alaska Communications has continued to perform well and add to our topline and adjusted EBITDA2 while furthering our overall network expansion. In addition to the benefit of a full current quarter of Alaska results, both revenue and Adjusted EBITDA2 also demonstrated strong organic growth year over year. In recent months, we collaborated with two native Alaskan corporations to secure federal grants totaling approximately $103 million to connect 25 communities in Alaska’s rural Yukon Delta region, one of the most underserved regions in the U.S. We also received a series of federal grants for roughly $41 million to bring fiber, broadband, and fixed wireless services to communities in the rural Southwest U.S., inclusive of the $10 million grant we highlighted last quarter. These grants will enable us to expand the number of homes, schools, health care facilities, and business premises covered by our fiber networks.

“With more than 30 years of experience specializing in bringing connectivity to rural, remote, and other traditionally underserved market segments, we are well-positioned to provide advanced data services to these communities for positive socioeconomic benefits and lasting business success. Looking ahead, while we recognize the current macroeconomic headwinds, we also remain confident in the critical need for our essential connectivity services, the durability of our operations, and the flexibility of our financial strategy. We plan to continue executing our growth strategies going forward while also managing our investments and operations prudently to ensure long-term success.”

Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Third quarter 2022 consolidated revenues were $182.2 million, up 9% compared with $166.8 million in the same period a year ago. The Company reported operating income of $1.4 million and Adjusted EBITDA2 of $41.9 million, improving from an operating loss of $1.0 million and Adjusted EBITDA2 of $36.8 million in the same period a year ago. These increases were due to the improved operating performance of Alaska Communications as well as the inclusion of a full quarter, or thirteen weeks, of Alaska Communications’ results versus the addition of ten weeks of Alaska Communications results in the same period a year ago3. Net loss attributable to ATN stockholders for the third quarter was $2.8 million, or $0.25 loss per share, compared with net loss attributable to ATN stockholders of $2.6 million, or $0.22 loss per share, in the same period a year ago. 

Third Quarter 2022 Operating Segment Results

The Company recorded financial results during the third quarter of 2022 in three categories: (i) International Telecom; (ii) US Telecom; and (iii) All Other. For the purposes of the below presentation, the Company’s Renewable Energy segment has been combined with the Company’s Corporate and Other segment as “All Other.”

*For this table presentation, the Renewable Energy segment results and Corporate and Other segment results were combined. See table 4 for the separate presentation of the financial performance of these segments.

**Includes reimbursable capital expenditures of $0.1 million and $4.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, and $2.2 million and $8.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.

International Telecom

International Telecom revenues4 were $90.0 million for the quarter, up 6% year over year. This increase was the result of mobile and broadband subscriber growth in the segment. The growth in fixed revenues was partially offset by a scheduled step down in federal high-cost support subsidies for the U.S. Virgin Islands. Operating expenses for the quarter increased incrementally year over year as the Company invested in growing its market share in mobile as well as expanding and enhancing its networks and sales and marketing capabilities. Operating income was $13.4 million and Adjusted EBITDA2 was $27.9 million in the quarter, compared with operating income of $13.2 million and Adjusted EBITDA2 of $26.9 million in the prior year period. The year over year increases in operating income and Adjusted EBITDA2 were mainly due to the same factors that drove higher segment revenue, partially offset by higher operating expenditures in the third quarter.

US Telecom

US Telecom revenues5 were $92.2 million in the quarter, up 13% year over year. Business and carrier services revenues accounted for approximately 70% of the segment’s services revenues in the third quarter of 2022. The increase in segment revenues was mainly due to the improved revenue performance of Alaska Communications as well as the addition of three weeks of Alaska Communications results in the third quarter of 2022, versus a partial quarter of Alaska Communications results in the same period a year ago3. The year over year increase in segment revenues was partially offset by reduced legacy wholesale wireless revenues and lower FirstNet construction revenues due to the timing of completed sites. Operating income was $0.7 million in the quarter improving from an operating loss of $9.8 million in the same period a year ago. The year over year improvement in operating income was mainly due to a reduction in transaction fees which offset an increase in depreciation in the current quarter. Adjusted EBITDA2 was $21.9 million in the quarter, increasing by 34% from $16.4 million in the same period a year ago, mainly due to the same factors which led to higher revenues in the third quarter of 2022.   

By the end of the third quarter of 2022, the Company had completed and activated approximately 70% of the total sites related to the network build portion of its long-term FirstNet Agreement. The Company now expects to complete an additional 5% of the total build by the end of 2022 and the remainder of the sites in 2023. Revenues from the build will be largely offset by construction costs incurred in the same period. 

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $77.8 million and total debt of $355.7 million, compared with $80.7 million of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and $331.8 million of total debt as of December 31, 2021.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $79.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared with $47.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The year over year increase in operating cash flow was due to an increase of $35.1 million in EBITDA for the first nine months of 2022, which more than offset the net cash used from changes in working capital. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company used net cash of $81.8 million for investing and financing activities, compared to $50.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase was principally due to capital expenditures, which were $114.0 million in the current year. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, additional uses of cash were from $4.6 million of purchases of minority equity interests in the Company’s subsidiaries, and an aggregate of $9.0 million in dividends to Company stockholders and repurchases of the Company’s common stock. These uses of cash were partially offset by net borrowings of $23.7 million under revolving credit agreements and $15.7 million in proceeds received from the sale of investments.   

Quarterly Dividends and Stock Buybacks

On September 15, 2022, ATN announced that its Board of Directors had declared a quarterly dividend of $0.17 per share, payable on October 7, 2022, on all common shares outstanding to stockholders of record as of September 30, 2022. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company utilized cash on hand to repurchase $0.9 million of its common stock.

2022 Guidance and Outlook

The Company is reiterating its outlook for its 2022 financial performance and its targets to be achieved in the three-year period ending in 2024, originally provided on February 23, 2022, within its fourth quarter and full year 2021 earnings release. The Company’s full year 2022 capital investment plan is $150 to $160 million (net of reimbursed amounts), primarily in network expansion and upgrades, which are expected to drive subscriber and revenue growth in the following periods. The Company continues to expect its Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $165 to $170 million for the full year6.

Strategic Progress Highlights

The Company believes that its Glass and Steel™ and “First-to-Fiber” market strategies are important for its long-term success and sees a rapidly growing need for more bandwidth and reliable connectivity. Deploying capital for growth in fiber and fiber-fed high-speed data solutions to more homes, businesses, schools, health care facilities, cell sites, and communities, has led to increases in the Company’s fiber footprint and broadband subscriber levels.

From January 1, 2020, to September 30, 2022, the Company has:

  • Added 350,000 premises passed by broadband, with 56,000 of the total group passed by higher-speed solutions7.
  • Added approximately 65,900 broadband subscribers.
  • Increased terrestrial fiber facilities by adding over 6,730 route miles.
  • Expanded mobile data capacity in all markets and added approximately 70,000 mobile subscribers.

The Company undertakes no obligation and has no intention to update these forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors that may affect such forward-looking statements, except as required by law.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this press release also contains non-GAAP financial measures. Specifically, the Company has included EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt Ratio in this release and in the tables included herein. 

EBITDA is defined as operating income (loss) before depreciation and amortization expense. The Company has defined Adjusted EBITDA as operating income (loss) before depreciation and amortization expense, transaction-related charges, one-time impairment or special charges and the gain (loss) on disposition of assets. Net Debt Ratio is defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents divided by the four quarters ended total Adjusted EBITDA at the measurement date. The Company believes that the inclusion of these non-GAAP financial measures helps investors gain a meaningful understanding of the Company's core operating results and enhances the usefulness of comparing such performance with prior periods. Management uses these non-GAAP measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, as the basis for measuring the Company’s core operating performance and comparing such performance to that of prior periods. The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for results of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are set forth in the text of, and the accompanying tables to, this press release. While non-GAAP financial measures are an important tool for financial and operational decision-making and for evaluating the Company’s own operating results over different periods of time, the Company urges investors to review the reconciliation of these financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures included below, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate its business.
