HOUSTON, Nov. 3, 2016
HOUSTON, Nov. 3, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- MRC Global Inc. (NYSE: MRC), the largest global distributor, based on sales, of pipe, valves and fittings and related products and services to the energy industry, today announced third quarter 2016 results.
The company's sales were $793 million for the third quarter of 2016, which were 26% lower than the third quarter of 2015 and 6% higher than the second quarter of 2016. As compared to last year, reduced customer activity across all sectors drove the decline as a result of lower oil and natural gas prices. Sequentially, improvements in upstream and midstream activity drove the increase as oil and natural gas prices improved and customer spending increased.
Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the third quarter of 2016 was $(46) million, or $(0.48) per diluted share, compared to net income attributable to common stockholders of $10 million, or $0.10 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2015. The third quarter 2016 results include after-tax, non-cash inventory and severance and restructuring charges of $40 million ($0.42 per diluted share).
Andrew R. Lane, MRC Global's president and chief executive officer stated, "This quarter's revenue was improved over the previous quarter, which is the first quarter of sequential revenue growth since 2014. I am encouraged by the 15% sequential growth in our U.S. upstream business. MRC Global generated $82 million in cash from operations this quarter for a total of $230 million in cash from operations generated so far this year, exceeding our initial expectation."
"I am also encouraged by the recent improvements in market conditions and expect 2017 revenue to improve over 2016. However, our expectations regarding the size of the improvement remain uncertain as we wait for our customers to finalize their 2017 budget plans," Mr. Lane added.
MRC Global's third quarter 2016 gross profit was $88 million (including $45 million of non-cash inventory charges recorded in cost of sales), or 11.1% of sales, a decrease from third quarter 2015 gross profit of $185 million, or 17.3% of sales. The $45 million of non-cash inventory charges include $24 million in the international segment primarily related to a restructuring of our Australian business and market conditions in Iraq. In addition, reserves for excess and obsolete inventory were increased in the U.S. and Canada by $16 million and $5 million, respectively, as a result of the current market outlook for certain products. Gross profit for the third quarter 2016 and 2015 reflects a benefit of $3 million and $15 million, respectively, in cost of sales relating to the use of the last-in, first out ("LIFO") method of inventory cost accounting.
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were $124 million, or 15.6% of sales, for the third quarter of 2016 compared to $142 million, or 13.3% of sales, for the same period of 2015. SG&A expenses for the third quarter of 2016 include $3 million of severance and restructuring charges.
Adjusted EBITDA was $24 million in the third quarter of 2016 compared to $51 million for the same period in 2015. Please refer to the reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) to net (loss) income (a GAAP measure) in this release.
The effective tax rate in the third quarter of 2016 was 5% as a result of a lower expected effective tax rate for the full year of 12%, reflecting increased unbenefited pre-tax losses in the International segment arising primarily from the non-cash inventory charges.
Sales by Segment
U.S. sales in the third quarter of 2016 were $590 million, down $276 million, or 32%, from the same quarter in 2015. The decrease reflects a $146 million, or 56%, decrease in the upstream sector (which includes a $63 million impact from the sale of our U.S. oil country tubular goods ("OCTG") product line), a $61 million, or 17%, decrease in the midstream sector and a $69 million, or 28%, decrease in the downstream sector.
Canadian sales in the third quarter of 2016 were $70 million, nearly flat with the same quarter in 2015 with an increase in midstream offsetting a decrease in the upstream sector.
International sales in the third quarter of 2016 were $133 million, down $3 million, or 2%, from the same period in 2015 as a decline in downstream sales were partially offset by an increase in upstream sales.
Sales by Sector
Upstream sales in the third quarter of 2016 decreased 41% from the third quarter of 2015 to $224 million, or 28%, of total sales. The decline in upstream sales was a result of reduced customer activity. U.S. upstream sales declined 32% in the third quarter of 2016, excluding OCTG revenue, from the third quarter of 2015 as compared to a 45% decline in the average U.S. rig count over the same period. Canadian upstream sales declined 23% in the third quarter of 2016 from the third quarter of 2015. International upstream sales increased 3% in the third quarter of 2016 from the third quarter of 2015.
Midstream sales in the third quarter of 2016 decreased 12% from the third quarter of 2015 to $327 million, or 41%, of total sales. Sales to transmission customers were down 22% and sales to gas utility customers were flat with the same quarter in 2015.
Downstream sales in the third quarter of 2016 decreased 25% from the third quarter of 2015 to $242 million, or 31%, of total sales. The downstream sector declined by 28% in the U.S. primarily due to lower project activity.
Balance Sheet
During the third quarter of 2016, the company generated $82 million of cash from operations and grew cash to $213 million at September 30, 2016 from $167 million at the end of the second quarter 2016.
