Otelco Inc. (NASDAQ:OTEL), a wireline telecommunications, cloud
hosting and managed services provider in Alabama, Maine,
Massachusetts, Missouri, New Hampshire, Vermont and West Virginia,
today announced results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2017.
Key highlights for Otelco include:
- Total revenues of $17.4 million for first quarter 2017.
- Operating income of $5.0 million for first quarter 2017.
- Net income of $1.6 million for first quarter 2017.
- Consolidated EBITDA (as defined below) of $7.2 million for
first quarter 2017.
During first quarter 2017, Otelco’s operating
income increased by $0.3 million to $5.0 million. The Company began
receiving the FCC’s A-CAM payments in the five states where the
program is applicable to the Company. The program provides a known
level of support for ten years, which is being used to enhance and
build out the Company’s broadband network to provide increased
speed and accessibility to customers. The new model-based support
plus higher CAF funding provided an increase of approximately $0.4
million in revenue for the quarter compared with the revenue it
replaced in 2016. The program funding reduced the decline in
revenue to $0.1 million for first quarter 2017 when compared to
first quarter 2016.
Net income for the first quarter of 2017
declined by $0.1 million and Consolidated EBITDA declined by $0.4
million from the same period in 2016. The decline in residential
voice service, the increase in interest costs associated with the
Company’s credit agreements, and the reduction in annual CoBank
dividends were partially offset by the increase in A-CAM and CAF
revenue.
In March, Otelco implemented a long-term fiber
IRU transport contract with a national carrier and signed an
additional dark-fiber contract with another carrier that will begin
service in June. In addition, the Company has signed fiber leases
to serve two cell towers with service to begin in second quarter.
On April 1, 2017, the Company successfully connected over 1,000
voice and data access lines to its network under a multi-year
contract with the community of Leverett, Massachusetts.
The Company continues the detailed
pre-conversion work to replace its billing and operations systems
with a common platform across its entire operation. “We remain on
schedule to complete the system conversion by early 2018,” noted
Rob Souza, President and Chief Executive Officer of Otelco. “The
changes to streamline our organizational structure are already
being implemented, allowing our operational teams to work together
in the detail planning, design and implementation of revised
service processes and leading to enhanced customer service and
improved efficiency.”
Otelco made an annual “excess cash flow” payment
of $3.1 million, in addition to its quarterly $1.0 million
scheduled principal payment on its senior credit facility during
first quarter. The Company continues its plan to reduce leverage
toward current industry norms. At the same time, cash grew from
$10.5 million at the end of 2016 to $10.7 million at March 31,
2017.
“In the fall of 2016, we announced the
engagement of The Bank Street Group LLC to explore the Company’s
strategic alternatives,” added Souza. “Industry announcements
within the broadly defined telecom market reflect continued
consolidation activity. Management and the Board of Directors are
actively involved in our ongoing process. The Company will continue
to restrict public comments to those required by applicable
law.”

(1) Consolidated EBITDA is
defined as consolidated net income (loss) plus consolidated net
interest expense, depreciation and amortization, income taxes and
certain other fees, expenses and non-cash charges reducing
consolidated net income. Consolidated EBITDA is a supplemental
measure of the Company’s performance that is not required by, or
presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Consolidated EBITDA
corresponds to the definition of Consolidated EBITDA in the
Company’s credit facilities. The lenders under the Company’s credit
facilities utilize this measure to determine compliance with credit
facility requirements. The Company uses Consolidated EBITDA as an
operational performance measurement to focus attention on the
operational generation of cash, which is used for reinvestment into
the business; to repay its debt and to pay interest on its debt; to
pay income taxes; and for other corporate requirements. The Company
reports Consolidated EBITDA to allow current and potential
investors to understand this performance metric and because the
Company believes that it provides current and potential investors
with helpful information with respect to the Company’s operating
performance. However, Consolidated EBITDA should not be considered
as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other
performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s
presentation of Consolidated EBITDA may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Revenues
Total revenues decreased 0.6% in the three
months ended March 31, 2017, to $17.4 million from $17.5 million in
the three months ended March 31, 2016. The decrease in residential
RLEC access line equivalents was offset by the incremental revenue
associated with the FCC’s A-CAM program. The table below provides
the components of the Company’s revenues for the three months ended
March 31, 2017, compared to the same period of 2016.

Local services revenue
decreased 6.7% in the three months ended March 31, 2017, to $5.6
million from $6.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2016.
The decline in RLEC residential voice access lines and related
revenue accounted for a decrease of $0.2 million. A portion of the
RLEC decrease is recovered through the Connect America Fund (or
“CAF”), which is categorized as interstate access revenue. The
decline in long distance and special line revenue accounted for a
decrease of $0.2 million. Network access revenue
increased 5.9% in the three months ended March 31, 2017, to $5.7
million from $5.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2016.
A $2.3 million increase in the CAF, the initial A-CAM revenue and
transition payments, was partially offset by a $1.9 million
decrease in interstate and intrastate access, including universal
service funding. End-user based fees decreased $0.1 million.
Internet revenue increased 2.3% in the three
months ended March 31, 2017, to $3.9 million from $3.8 million in
the three months ended March 31, 2016. Increased data speeds
accounted for the increase in revenue. Transport
services revenue decreased 11.8% in the three months ended
March 31, 2017, to $1.1 million from $1.3 million in the three
months ended March 31, 2016, reflecting customer churn and market
pricing. Video and security revenue in the three
months ended March 31, 2017, increased 4.2% from the three months
ended March 31, 2016, to $0.8 million from $0.7 million reflecting
increases in IPTV revenue. Managed services
revenue increased 2.1% in the three months ended March 31, 2017,
over the comparable period in 2016 to remain at just over $0.2
million, reflecting increases in cloud hosting revenue.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses in the three months ended
March 31, 2017, decreased 3.0% to $12.4 million from $12.7 million
in the three months ended March 31, 2016. Cost of
services decreased 3.9% to $7.8 million in the three
months ended March 31, 2017, from $8.1 million in the three months
ended March 31, 2016. Network circuit and resale facility expense
decreased $0.2 million; Hosted PBX equipment expense decreased $0.1
million; toll, internet and access expense decreased $0.1 million;
and customer service and sales, cloud hosting and professional
services expense decreased $0.1 million. These decreases were
partially offset by an increase of $0.1 million in other costs.
Selling, general and administrative
expenses increased 5.0% to $2.7 million in the
three months ended March 31, 2017, from $2.6 million in the three
months ended March 31, 2016. The increase was the result of a
transition from the stock-based senior management bonus plan, which
had been in place for three years, to cash-based bonus plan for
2017. Depreciation and amortization decreased 9.7%
in the three months ended March 31, 2017, to $1.8 million from $2.0
million in three months ended March 31, 2016. Cable and CLEC
depreciation and the amortization of other intangible assets in New
England decreased $0.1 million, and the amortization of the
telephone plant adjustment decreased $0.1 million.
Operating Income
Operating income in the three months ended March
31, 2017, increased 5.8% to $5.0 million from $4.7 million in the
three months ended March 31, 2016, primarily related to the
increase in revenue associated with A-CAM transition during first
quarter 2017.
Interest Expense
Interest expense in the three months ended March
31, 2017, increased 5.2% to $2.6 million from $2.5 million in the
three months ended March 31, 2016. Higher interest rates on the
Company’s current loan facilities accounted for an increase of $0.2
million, which was partially offset by lower loan cost amortization
of $0.1 million. During first quarter 2016, the Company executed
new senior and subordinated credit facilities which mature in
2021.
Other Income
Other income in the three months ended March 31,
2017, decreased 67.2% to $0.2 million from $0.6 million in the
three months ended March 31, 2016, primarily related to the annual
CoBank dividend. In first quarter 2016, the senior credit facility
held by CoBank (and five other banks) was fully repaid. As such,
the Company was only entitled to a partial year of dividends from
CoBank, which are received in first quarter of each year. The
CoBank patronage shares held by the Company are expected to be
repatriated over the next nine years.
Net Income
Based on the changes noted above, net income
decreased $0.1 million to $1.6 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2017, when compared to $1.7 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2016, primarily driven by the decrease in the
CoBank dividend partially offset by the increase in A-CAM
revenue.
Consolidated EBITDA
Based on the changes noted above, Consolidated
EBITDA decreased $0.4 million to $7.2 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2017, when compared to $7.6 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2016. Consolidated EBITDA was $6.7 million
in the fourth quarter of 2016. Stock based compensation and other
excluded expenses are added back in the calculation of Consolidated
EBITDA. See financial tables for a reconciliation of Consolidated
EBITDA to net income.
Balance Sheet
As of March 31, 2017, the Company had cash and
cash equivalents of $10.7 million compared to $10.5 million at
the end of 2016. During first quarter 2017, the Company reduced its
senior credit facility balance to $77.9 million through $1.0
million in scheduled principal payments and $3.1 million in annual
Excess Cash Flow payment. The $5.0 million revolver remains
undrawn.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures were $1.3 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to $0.7 million in the
same period in 2016. The buildout requirements of the A-CAM program
and the Company’s plans to convert its billing and operations
systems to a single platform during 2017 may increase annual
investment for 2017 and 2018. The Company has amended its credit
facility to allow for the potential increase in capital
expenditures by $1.5 million and $1.0 million in 2017 and 2018,
respectively.
