Consolidated Communications Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: CNSL) (the
“Company” or “Consolidated”), a top 10 fiber provider in the U.S.,
today reported results for first quarter 2024.
First Quarter 2024 Results
- Revenue totaled $274.7 million
- Overall consumer revenue was $114.8 million
- Consumer fiber broadband revenue was $41.6 million
- Total consumer broadband net adds were 6,338
- Consumer broadband revenue was $79.9 million
- Commercial data services revenue was $54.7 million
- Carrier data-transport revenue was $31.0 million
- Net loss was ($47.2 million). Adjusted EBITDA was $88.4
million
- Total committed capital expenditures were $83.7 million
Cost of services and products and selling, general and
administrative expenses collectively decreased $15.8 million versus
the prior year largely due to decreased USF contributions, lower
video programming costs, a reduction in salaries driven by certain
cost savings initiatives, and lower access expense.
Net interest expense was $42.5 million, an increase of $8.6
million versus the prior year, primarily as a result of higher
interest rates on the term loan, in addition to decreased interest
income due to lower cash holdings in the current quarter. At Mar.
31, 2024, the Company had 73% of its total outstanding debt at a
fixed rate through September 2026. As of Mar. 31, 2024, the
weighted average cost of debt was 7.14%.
Net loss in the first quarter of 2024 was ($47.2 million)
compared to net loss of ($47.7 million) in the first quarter of
2023. Net loss per share was ($0.41) in the first quarter of 2024
as compared to net loss per share of ($0.42) in the first quarter
of 2023. Adjusted diluted net income (loss) per share excludes
certain items as outlined in the table provided in this release.
Adjusted diluted net loss per share was ($0.27) compared to ($0.28)
in the first quarter of 2023.
Capital Expenditures
Total committed capital expenditures were $83.7 million, driven
by 10,783 new fiber passings, first quarter fiber adds, and reflect
the usage of existing inventory for install and build activity.
Capital Structure
On Mar. 21, 2024, the Company, as borrower, entered into an $80
million term loan agreement (“Term Loan Agreement”) with
Searchlight CVL AGG, L.P. as lender. The Term Loan Agreement
provides the Company with the ability to borrow on the loan in the
event either the aggregate amount of available loans to be drawn
under the Company’s revolving credit facility is less than $25.0
million or drawing under the Company’s revolving credit facility
would trigger the financial maintenance covenant thereunder and the
Company would not be in compliance with such covenant on a pro
forma basis, subject to the satisfaction of certain other customary
conditions.
As of Mar. 31, 2024, the Company maintained liquidity with cash
and short-term investments of approximately $7 million, as well as
$111 million of available borrowing capacity under the Company’s
revolving credit facility and $80 million undrawn under its Term
Loan Agreement, in each case, subject to certain covenants. The net
debt leverage ratio for the trailing 12 months ended Mar. 31, 2024,
was 6.76x.
Washington Asset Sale
On May 1, 2024, Consolidated completed the sale of its
Washington assets.
Pending Transaction
As previously announced on Oct. 16, 2023, Consolidated entered
into an agreement to be acquired by affiliates of Searchlight
Capital Partners, L.P. and British Columbia Investment Management
Corporation in an all-cash transaction with an enterprise value of
approximately $3.1 billion, including the assumption of debt. On
Jan. 31, 2024, at a special meeting of shareholders, approximately
75% of shares held by disinterested shareholders voted to approve
the proposal to adopt the merger agreement and approve the pending
transaction. The transaction will result in Consolidated becoming a
private company and is expected to close by the first quarter of
2025, subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of
regulatory approvals. The transaction is not subject to a financing
condition. Following the closing of the transaction, shares of
Consolidated common stock will no longer be traded or listed on any
public securities exchange.
In light of the transaction, Consolidated will not host an
earnings conference call.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes disclosures regarding “EBITDA,”
“adjusted EBITDA,” “Net debt leverage ratio,” and “adjusted diluted
net income (loss) per share,” all of which are non-GAAP financial
measures. Accordingly, they should not be construed as alternatives
to net cash from operating or investing activities, cash and cash
equivalents, cash flows from operations, net income or net income
per share as defined by GAAP and are not, on their own, necessarily
indicative of cash available to fund cash needs as determined in
accordance with GAAP. In addition, not all companies use identical
calculations, and the non-GAAP financial measures may not be
comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. A
reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most
directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance with
GAAP is included in the tables that follow.
Adjusted EBITDA is comprised of EBITDA, adjusted for certain
items as permitted or required by the lenders under our credit
agreement in place at the end of each quarter in the periods
presented. The tables that follow include an explanation of how
adjusted EBITDA is calculated for each of the periods presented
with the reconciliation to net income (loss). EBITDA is defined as
net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes,
depreciation and amortization on a historical basis.
We present adjusted EBITDA for several reasons. Management
believes adjusted EBITDA is useful as a means to evaluate our
ability to fund our estimated uses of cash (including interest on
our debt). In addition, we have presented adjusted EBITDA to
investors in the past because it is frequently used by investors,
securities analysts and other interested parties in the evaluation
of companies in our industry, and management believes presenting it
here provides a measure of consistency in our financial reporting.
Adjusted EBITDA, referred to as Available Cash in our credit
agreement, is also a component of the restrictive covenants and
financial ratios contained in our credit agreement that requires us
to maintain compliance with these covenants and limit certain
activities, such as our ability to incur debt. The definitions in
these covenants and ratios are based on Adjusted EBITDA after
giving effect to specified charges. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA
provides our board of directors with meaningful information, with
other data, assumptions and considerations, to measure our ability
to service and repay debt. We present the related “Net debt
leverage ratio” principally to help investors understand how we
measure leverage and facilitate comparisons by investors, security
analysts and others. Total net debt is defined as the current and
long-term portions of debt and finance lease obligations less cash,
cash equivalents and short-term investments, deferred debt issuance
costs and discounts on debt. Our Net debt leverage ratio differs in
certain respects from the similar ratio used in our credit
agreement or against comparable measures of certain other companies
in our industry. These measures differ in certain respects from the
ratios used in our senior notes indenture.
These non-GAAP financial measures have certain shortcomings. In
particular, Adjusted EBITDA does not represent the residual cash
flows available for discretionary expenditures, since items such as
debt repayment and interest payments are not deducted from such
measure. In addition, the Net debt leverage ratio is subject to the
risk that we may not be able to use the cash on the balance sheet
to reduce our debt on a dollar-for-dollar basis. Management
believes this ratio is useful as a means to evaluate our ability to
incur additional indebtedness in the future.
We present the non-GAAP measure “adjusted diluted net income
(loss) per share” because our net income (loss) and net income
(loss) per share are regularly affected by items that occur at
irregular intervals or are non-cash items. We believe that
disclosing these measures assists investors, securities analysts
and other interested parties in evaluating both our company over
time and the relative performance of the companies in our
industry.

Notes: (1) In Q1 2021, the Company launched a
multi-year fiber build plan to upgrade 1.6 million passings or 70%
of our service area to fiber Gig+ capable services. During the
quarter ended March 31, 2024, an additional 10,783 passings were
upgraded to FttP and total fiber passings were 1,246,991 or 47% of
the Company's service area. (2) Passings counts are estimates of
single family units, multi-dwelling units, and multi-tenant units
within consumer, small business and enterprise. These counts are
based upon the information available at this time and are subject
to updates as additional information becomes available. (3) When a
passing is both fiber and DSL/Copper capable it is counted as a
fiber passing. (4) Fiber broadband revenue includes revenue from
our Kansas City operations, which was sold in the fourth quarter of
2022, of approximately $1.8 million for the year ended December 31,
2022. Amounts have not been adjusted to reflect the sale. (5)
Consumer Broadband net adds and churn for the year ended December
31, 2022 have been normalized to reflect the divestitures of our
Kansas City and Ohio operations, which were sold in 2022.
