Richard E. Gathright,
Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President, commented:
"For our fiscal year ended June 30,
2010, we posted net income of $465,000 versus a net loss of $2.3 million in fiscal year 2009. This
$2.8 million improvement in our
financial performance for fiscal 2010 is a continuation of the
$4.4 million improvement in fiscal
2009 over fiscal 2008. We have outperformed all reasonable
expectations in the face of an unprecedented global economic
recession and financial meltdown over the past two years.
Despite facing the worst domestic and global economy since
the Great Depression, we have increased our sales volumes by 2.6%
or 1.8 million gallons in fiscal 2010 over the prior year.
We have offset the reduction of demand from our customer base
attributed to the recession with the addition of net new business,
including the expansion of our business into three new markets.
We consider this achievement to be particularly noteworthy in
light of the fact that the 14% drop in demand from our existing
customer base at the onset of the economic downturn in the fall of
2008 has not yet been recovered. Moreover, we have achieved
profitability in fiscal 2010 notwithstanding not having any
significant amount of emergency response work in the year compared
to a year ago, as reflected by our net margin per gallon of
23.1 cents versus 25.8 cents per gallon in the prior year.
We have decreased our total debt by $1.9
million, our equity has increased by $527,000, and both improvements have contributed
to a lower debt to equity ratio of 1.7 compared to 2.1 a year
ago.
For fiscal 2010, our EBITDA was $4.0
million, our cash contribution which is EBITDA less fixed
charges was $1.9 million and our
fixed charge coverage ratio was 1.86. These numbers are
comparable to the $4.5 million,
$1.8 million and 1.65, respectively,
reported a year ago, when we suggested our EBITDA and other
reported numbers were harbingers of further improvements in our
operating results.
Our selling, general and administrative expenses were
$1.0 million lower in fiscal 2010
than last year. Our cost cutting measures initiated in
fiscal 2008 contributed to this year's significant reduction in
personnel costs and professional fees. That $1.0 million reduction was achieved
notwithstanding $531,000 in SG&A
costs that are not expected to recur in fiscal 2011, including:
1) a $187,000 write off of
deferred acquisition costs; 2) a $93,000 stock option repricing charge; and 3)
$251,000 in Sarbanes-Oxley Section
404(b) costs, preparing for auditor attestation of our internal
controls assessment from which we were exempted by law after the
costs were incurred; offset by a $584,000 SG&A reduction from the settlement
of our litigation against the FAS Group.
Our successful June 2009
Recapitalization strengthened our balance sheet and impacted our
bottom line performance as we replaced high yield notes for mostly
common stock and low yield notes resulting in a $1.5 million interest expense savings and our
further reduction of debt this year as we paid $1.0 million of scheduled principal payments on
our bank term loan.
We are positioned, for the next fiscal year, to continue our
growth and improvement. We have ordered new trucks to
modernize and increase the size of our fleet, which will create
expanded capacity to our system, improve fuel economy and satisfy
new emission standards, give us further opportunity to expand in
new markets and reduce our repair and maintenance costs.
In light of the weak market conditions for our stock, we
recently announced a stock repurchase program pursuant to which we
may purchase up to $840,000 of
capital stock. While that program has only recently begun, we
believe that, in light of the current prices for our common stock,
the expenditure of corporate funds to acquire shares at these
prices is a reasonable and prudent allocation of our financial
resources.
We believe that, in this economy, there are many opportunities
available for us to acquire complementary businesses and achieve
accelerated growth from those acquisitions. A significant
improvement in the trading price of our common stock would
facilitate those acquisitions, since we could use shares of our
stock to fund all or a portion of any such acquisition. We
are currently reluctant to use shares of our stock as consideration
for acquisitions, however, because we believe acquisitions made
with our stock at or near current prices would be unduly dilutive.
While we will consider using stock for acquisitions that are
accretive on an earnings per share basis, we will do so only if we
believe that the trading market for our stock is sufficiently
related to the actual value and prospects of our Company to reflect
the enhanced value from the acquisition."
Highlights of Fiscal Year 2010 vs. Fiscal Year
2009
- Revenues were $192.8 million in
fiscal 2010 as compared to $199.2
million in fiscal 2009, a decrease of $6.4 million, or 3.2%, primarily as a result of
an $11.3 million decrease
attributable to lower market prices of petroleum products during
fiscal 2010, as compared to fiscal 2009. The number of
gallons sold during fiscal 2010 and 2009 was 69.7 million and 67.9
million, respectively, an increase of 1.8 million gallons, or 2.7%.
In the first part of fiscal 2009, we provided emergency
response services in Louisiana and
Texas for Hurricanes Gustav and
Ike. This brief injection of higher margin emergency response
business helped to sustain us through the dramatic contraction of
the national economy at the time, which severely affected us in the
second quarter of that year. Since that time, we have
witnessed a slow but steady increase in demand for our services
from companies seeking to reduce their costs of operation with
mobile fueling, leading to our decision to add three new service
locations in fiscal 2010. The 14% decrease in same customer
sales demand that occurred during the economic downturn at that
time, however, has still not been recovered by the Company.
Much like the reports of uneven and unsteady growth for the
economy generally, our sales volume fluctuated during much of
fiscal 2010. We saw a much stronger demand from net new
business from March 2010 through the
end of the fiscal year and are optimistic about its continuation
throughout this next fiscal year.
- Net income was $465,000 in fiscal
2010, compared to a net loss of $2.3
million in fiscal 2009, an improvement of $2.8 million. The improvement was partially
attributable to lower selling, general and administrative expenses
of $1.0 million due to the cost
cutting and business restructuring steps that were taken beginning
in late November 2008 to meet the
dramatic decrease in customer demand attributable to the
international economic crisis. Additionally, we incurred
lower interest expense of $1.5
million attributable to the June
2009 Recapitalization and to lower fuel prices. Net
income in fiscal 2010 was reduced by the lower gross profit of
$1.2 million partially resulting from
the decrease in margin contribution from the emergency response
services provided in the first quarter of fiscal 2009, higher
direct operating expense this year including higher repairs and
maintenance costs of our fleet, cost for storm water removal in our
mid-continent division which cost was almost eliminated by
May 2010, and new market start up
costs as we expanded our business. Additionally, this year we
did not have the non recurrence of the benefit from last year's
modification of certain personnel benefits programs. The net
loss in fiscal 2009 included a $1.7
million non-cash ASC 470-20 (formerly FAS No. 84) inducement
on extinguishment charge that did not reoccur in fiscal 2010.
- EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) was $4.0
million in fiscal 2010 compared to $4.5 million in fiscal 2009, a decrease of
$520,000. The decrease in
EBITDA was principally due to the lower gross profit of
$1.2 million, which was partially the
result of decreases in margin contribution from the emergency
response services provided in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 in
Louisiana and Texas for Hurricanes Gustav and Ike, higher
repairs and maintenance costs of our fleet, $244,000 of cost for storm water removal in our
mid-continent division which cost was almost eliminated by
May 2010, and new market start up
costs of approximately $104,000.
The decrease in EBITDA was partially offset by the
$1.0 million decrease in selling,
general and administrative expenses as a result of the cost cutting
and business restructuring steps taken beginning in late
November 2008 to meet the dramatic
decrease in customer demand attributable to the global economic
crisis.
- Net margin per gallon decreased to 23.1
cents in the fiscal 2010 from 25.8
cents in the prior fiscal year. The decrease was
primarily due to the incremental margin contributions in fiscal
2009 from the emergency response services provided for hurricanes
during the first quarter of fiscal 2009, as well as the higher
direct operating expenses described above.
Highlights of Fourth Quarter Fiscal Year 2010 vs. Fourth
Quarter Fiscal Year 2009
- Revenues were $53.7 million in
the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010, an increase of $13.8 million, or a 35% increase from
$39.9 million in the same period in
fiscal 2009. The increase consists primarily of an
$8.9 million attributable to price
variances as market fuel prices have increased approximately an
average of 37% per gallon in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010
compared to the same period the prior fiscal year.
Additionally, revenues increased $4.9
million due to a 10% incremental increase in gallons sold
compared to the same period in the prior year.
- Net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 was
$419,000, compared to a net loss of
$1.9 million in the fourth quarter of
fiscal 2009. The net loss in the prior year was primarily due
to the $1.7 million non-cash ASC
470-20 conversion inducement on extinguishment of convertible
notes, which did not reoccur in fiscal 2010. The improvement
was also attributable to higher gross profit of $781,000 resulting from the 1.9 cents increase in net margin per gallon, from
22.7 cents per gallon in the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2009 to 24.6 cents
per gallon in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010, and lower interest
expense of $318,000, offset by higher
selling, general and administrative expenses of $277,000.
- EBITDA was $1.2 million for the
fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010, an increase of $313,000 or 36% when compared to the $876,000 in EBITDA reported in the same period
the prior year, attributable to higher gross profit partially
offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses as
described above.

(1) EBITDA is defined as
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, a
Non-GAAP financial measure within the meaning of Regulation G
promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. To the
extent that gain and the non-cash ASC 470-20 (formerly FAS No. 84)
inducement on extinguishment of promissory notes constitutes
the recognition of previously deferred interest or finance
cost, it is considered interest expense for the calculation of
certain interest expense amounts. Both stock-based
compensation amortization expense and the write-off of unamortized
acquisition costs are considered amortization items to be excluded
in the EBITDA calculation. We believe that EBITDA provides
useful information to investors because it excludes transactions
not related to the core cash operating business activities.
We believe that excluding these transactions allows investors
to meaningfully trend and analyze the performance of our core cash
operations.
(2) Net margin per gallon
is calculated by adding gross profit to the cost of sales
depreciation and amortization and dividing that sum by the number
of gallons sold.
(3) Non-cash ASC 470-20
(formerly FAS No. 84) inducement on extinguishment is a charge we
incurred strictly as a result of the June 29, 2009
Recapitalization. The Company extinguished a portion of the
August 2007 and the September 2008 Notes ("the Notes") through the
issuance of approximate 1.2 million shares and approximate 278,000
shares, respectively, at the negotiated price of $1.71 per share,
which was greater than the $1.67 per share closing bid price the
day prior to the Recapitalization, but lower than the conversion
price applicable to the convertible debt instruments, which
resulted in the issuance of more shares in the exchange than would
have been issued upon a conversion. The practice of
accounting in the interpretation of ASC 470-20 (formerly FAS No.
84) is that an inducement occurs any time when additional shares
are issued in the extinguishment of convertible debt regardless of
the absence of an economic loss or economic intent of the parties
to the transaction. Irrespective of the economic reality of
the transaction, ASC 470-20 (formerly FAS No. 84) required the
recording of a non-cash "conversion inducement" charge of $1.7
million, based on the difference between the approximate aggregate
471,000 common shares issuable to the applicable note holder under
the original conversion rights that existed upon a conversion and
the approximate 1.5 million common shares exchanged at $1.71 cents
in the transaction that extinguished all of the Notes. This
non-cash charge is deemed a financing expense to extinguish the
Notes. To the extent that the non-cash ASC 470-20 (formerly
FAS No. 84) inducement on extinguishment of promissory notes
constitutes the recognition of a finance cost, it is
considered interest expense for the calculation of certain interest
expense amounts.
(4) Adjusted net income
(loss) before non-cash, non-recurring costs is a non-GAAP measure
that excludes the non-cash ASC 470-20 inducement on extinguishment
of convertible notes, the non-cash ASC 805 write-off of unamortized
acquisition costs, and the non-cash stock options repricing costs.
We believe that this is a meaningful non-GAAP representation
of the ongoing performance of the operations as it excludes the
effect of charges that were strictly related to the June 2009
Recapitalization and/or charges that are non-recurring.

inducement, deemed dividends on extinguishment of convertible notes
and preferred shares, non-cash ASC 805 write-off of unamortized

non-GAAP measure that excludes the effect of charges and dividends
that are non-recurring. We believe that excluding them in
this non-GAAP calculation provides a meaningful representation of
the ongoing performance of the operations of the Company.

(1) EBITDA is defined as
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, a
non-GAAP financial measure within the meaning of Regulation G
promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. To the
extent that gain and the non-cash ASC 470-20 (formerly FAS No. 84)
inducement on extinguishment of promissory notes constitutes the
recognition of previously deferred interest or finance cost, it is
considered interest expense for the calculation of certain interest
expense amounts. Both stock-based compensation amortization
expense and the write-off of unamortized acquisition costs are
considered amortization items to be excluded in the EBITDA
calculation. We believe that EBITDA provides useful
information to investors because it excludes transactions not
related to the core cash operating business activities. We
believe that excluding these transactions allows investors to
meaningfully trend and analyze the performance of our core cash
operations.
(2) Net margin
per gallon is calculated by adding gross profit to the cost of
sales depreciation and amortization and dividing that sum by the
number of gallons sold.

(1) EBITDA is defined as
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, a
non-GAAP financial measure within the meaning of Regulation G
promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. To the
extent that gain and the non-cash ASC 470-20 (formerly FAS No. 84)
inducement on extinguishment of promissory notes constitutes the
recognition of previously deferred interest or finance cost, it is
considered interest expense for the calculation of certain interest
expense amounts. Both stock-based compensation amortization
expense and the write-off of unamortized acquisitions costs are
considered amortization items to be excluded in the EBITDA
calculation. We believe that EBITDA provides useful
information to investors because it excludes transactions not
related to the core cash operating business activities. We
believe that excluding these transactions allows investors to
meaningfully trend and analyze the performance of our core cash
operations.

Reconciliation of Net income
(loss) to Cash Contribution, Fixed Charges and Fixed Coverage Ratio
(non-GAAP Measure)
Cash contribution, fixed charges
and fixed coverage ratio are non-GAAP measures that provide useful
information regarding the Company's ability to satisfy cash
payments other than those made for operating activities.
The following table reconciles
cash contribution, fixed charges and fixed coverage ratio to the
reported Net income (loss) for each of the fiscal years presented
above:

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This press release includes "forward-looking statements" within
the meaning of the safe harbor provision of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. For example, predictions or
statements of belief or expectation concerning the future
performance of the Company, the future trading prices of the
Company's common stock and the potential for further growth of the
Company are all "forward looking statements" which should not be
relied upon. Such forward-looking statements are based on the
current beliefs of the Company and its management based on
information known to them at this time. Because these
statements depend on various assumptions as to future events, they
should not be relied on by shareholders or other persons in
evaluating the Company. Although management believes that the
assumptions reflected in such forward-looking statements are
reasonable, actual results could differ materially from those
projected. In addition, there are numerous risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from those
anticipated by the Company, including but not limited to those
cited in the "Risk Factors" section of the Company's Form 10-K for
