FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
TGC Industries Reports Second Quarter 2011 Results
Backlog increases to $56 million
First half revenues increase 52% to $80 million
First half EBITDA increases 162% to $19.5 million
PLANO, TEXAS August 1, 2011 TGC Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: TGE) today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2011. Revenues increased 34 percent to $30.2 million compared to $22.5 million in the second quarter of 2010. Net income was $0.6 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $1.2 million, or ($0.06) per share, in the second quarter of 2010. Second quarter 2011 EBITDA (earnings before net interest expense, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) increased 150 percent to $6.0 million from $2.4 million in the second quarter of 2010. A reconciliation of EBITDA (a non-GAAP financial measure) to reported earnings can be found in the financial tables. In the second quarter of 2011, the Company incurred $528,000 of transaction costs related to the proposed merger agreement with Dawson Geophysical Company.
Wayne Whitener, TGC Industries President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, We are pleased with our second quarter results, which were driven by an outstanding performance in our U.S. operations as the domestic market continued to strengthen. Our backlog rose sequentially to $56 million, and for first half of the year, we generated revenues of over $80 million and EBITDA of almost $20 million. In response to growing customer demand, we added an eighth seismic acquisition crew in the U.S. during the quarter. As expected, the second quarter was negatively impacted by the seasonal slowdown in Canada that resulted from the spring thaw, where we wound down activities with essentially no crews operating there for most of the quarter. However,
toward the end of the second quarter, we were awarded new business in Canada and accordingly activated two crews there.
Overall, the seismic acquisition market continues to improve, and bidding remains active. In light of the improving market environment, we have just purchased another 5,000 channel GSR (Geospace Seismic Recorder) wireless recording system. While our third quarter will again be impacted by the normal seasonality in Canada, we are optimistic about the remainder of the year as the U.S. business continues to strengthen and the ramp up of the winter season in Canada will occur during the latter half of the year. In addition, we ended the quarter with approximately $22 million in cash and remain financially strong and well capitalized, with the financial and operational flexibility to make the most of opportunities in this strengthening market.
SECOND QUARTER 2011
Revenues for the second quarter of 2011 were $30.2 million compared to $22.5 million in the second quarter of 2010. The Company began the second quarter with seven crews operating in the U.S. and added an eighth crew during the quarter compared to operating six crews in the U.S. during the 2010 second quarter. In Canada, the number of working crews wound down to zero during the second quarter as a result of the spring thaw, but the Company added two crews toward the end of the quarter.
Cost of services as a percentage of revenues declined to 72.6 percent compared to 81.6 percent in the second quarter of 2010. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $2.3 million compared to $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2010. As a percentage of revenues, SG&A expenses for the second quarter of 2011 fell slightly to 7.5 percent from 7.8 percent in the second quarter of 2010.
Net income in the second quarter of 2011, which includes the above-mentioned transaction related costs, grew to $0.6 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, from a net loss of $1.2 million, or ($0.06) per share, in the second quarter of 2010. In the second quarter of 2011, the Company recorded income tax expense of $0.4 million, an effective tax rate of 42.6 percent, compared to an income tax benefit of $0.4 million in the second quarter of 2010, an effective tax benefit rate of 24.5 percent. Second quarter 2011 EBITDA increased 150 percent to $6.0 million compared to $2.4 million in last years second quarter. EBITDA margin in the second quarter increased by 915 basis points to 19.8 percent from 10.7 percent in the same period of 2010.
FIRST HALF 2011
Revenues for the first six months of 2011 grew 52 percent to $80.5 million from $52.8 million in the first six months of 2010. Cost of services as a percentage of revenues decreased to 69.9 percent in the first half of 2011 from 79.4 percent in the first half of 2010. SG&A expenses were $4.8 million, or 5.9 percent of revenues, in the first half of 2011 compared to $3.4 million, or 6.5 percent of revenues, in the first half of 2010.
Net income for the first half of 2011 was $6.4 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, compared to net loss of $0.7 million, or ($0.03) per share, a year ago. First half 2011 results include $1.1 million of transaction costs related to the proposed merger agreement with Dawson Geophysical Company. First half 2011 EBITDA increased 162 percent to $19.5 million, or 24.2 percent of revenues, compared to $7.4 million, or 14.1 percent of revenues, in same period of 2010.
