HOUSTON, March 30, 2017
HOUSTON, March 30, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Deep Down, Inc. (OTCQX: DPDW) ("Deep Down" or the "Company"), an oilfield services company specializing in complex deepwater and ultra-deepwater oil production distribution system support services, today reported financial results for the year ended December 31, 2016.
OPERATING RESULTS
For 2016, Deep Down reported net income of $0.2 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $1.8 million, or $0.12 loss per diluted share for 2015.
Revenues in 2016 were $25.4 million, an increase of 2% compared to revenues of $24.8 million in 2015. The increase was primarily due to work completed on a significant project for one of our customers.
Gross profit increased $1.5 million in 2016 to $9.0 million as compared to $7.5 million in 2015, and gross profit as a percentage of revenues for 2016 increased to 36%, as compared to 30% for 2015. The increase in gross profit and gross profit percentage was primarily due to increased costs incurred on prolonged fixed price project during 2015, which did not occur in 2016.
Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") for 2016 was $9.7 million, or 38 percent of revenues. SG&A for 2015 was $9.1 million, or 37 percent of revenues. The $0.6 million increase in SG&A was due primarily to a $0.5 million increase in our legal fees and outside services incurred in order to protect our intellectual property, corporate integrity and human resource policies, as well as preparing for arbitration on a disputed contract.
The Company's management evaluates its financial performance based on a non-GAAP measure, Modified EBITDA, which consists of earnings (net income or loss) available to common shareholders before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and other non-cash and non-recurring charges.
Modified EBITDA increased $0.3 million from $0.7 million in 2015 to $1.0 million in 2016. This was primarily due gross profit before depreciation increasing $1.3 million in 2016 as compared to 2015, due primarily to improving cost controls around our service and production activities. The increase in gross profit was offset by SG&A before share-based compensation of $0.7 million in 2016 as compared to 2015. The remaining EBITDA difference related to the reduced add back of interest expense in 2016.
LIQUIDITY / CAPITAL RESOURCES
At December 31, 2016, we had working capital of $12.0 million, including cash of $8.2 million. In March 2016, we paid off the RE Term Facility and the Carousel Term Facility with proceeds received from the sale of our Channelview location. Due to the expiration of our credit facility on June 30, 2016, we no longer have the requirement of a compensating balance and the $3.9 million, previously held as a compensating balance, is now available for use. As of December 31, 2016, we no longer have these credit facilities available to us. As a result of cash we expect to generate from operations, we believe we will have adequate liquidity to meet our future operating requirements.
EXECUTIVE MANAGEMENT
Ronald E. Smith, Chief Executive Officer, stated, "In light of the challenges in the Oil and Gas industry, we are pleased with our results for the year ended December 31, 2016, and are grateful for the confidence our customers continue to place in our ability to assist them solve their problems.
"Our strategic focus on cost containment, streamlined contracting strategies, and cash management, has enabled us to continue being a preferred service provider. We believe that our size and organizational structure enable us to provide solutions for our customers within a timeframe, and at costs, expected by our customers.
"While our current backlog of our core products and services is $23 million, interest in our services for non oil and gas applications continues to increase. We have been approached by various academic and scientific organizations to partner with them as they develop new deepwater technologies for other industries. As a result of the positive outcomes of our initial activities we are optimistic about our future involvement in such initiatives.
"We believe that the Company is positioned for future success. Our balance sheet continues to strengthen, our collaborative relationships with new and existing customers continue to increase, and our workforce continues to be highly focused. We are optimistic about both near-term and long-term prospects for the Company, and intend to continue to focus on what we do best, even as we pursue new opportunities."
