WESTMINSTER, CO and VANCOUVER, July 31, 2018 — (PRNewswire) —  Maxar Technologies Ltd. ("Maxar" or the "Company", formerly MacDonald, Dettwiler and Associates Ltd.), (NYSE and TSX: MAXR), a leading global provider of advanced space technology solutions for commercial and government markets, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2018. All dollar amounts in this press release are expressed in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.

Highlights from the quarter include:

• Consolidated revenues of $578.9 million
• Net loss under IFRS of $18.6 million and net loss per share of $0.33
• Adjusted EBITDA of $171.2 million and adjusted EBITDA margin of 29.6 percent
• Adjusted earnings of $69.9 million and adjusted earnings per share of $1.22

"We delivered solid results in the quarter driven by higher revenue and improved margins in our Imagery segment, and we secured a key win in our Services business that provides improved visibility on future growth.  After the quarter ended, we also announced that the company's Space Systems segment was part of a team that has been awarded a design and risk management contract for a large low earth orbit (LEO) constellation," stated Howard L. Lance, President & Chief Executive Officer. "We are reaffirming our full year 2018 guidance for revenue, cash flow from operations and our full-year adjusted EPS outlook. We remain focused on delivering solid financial results throughout the year," he added.  "Maxar is unique, at the nexus of the new space economy, with four leading commercial business brands. Our diversification strategy is working as evidenced by recent wins, we are delivering on the cost synergies from the DigitalGlobe acquisition, and we are making progress on the long-term strategic and financial objectives for growth laid out at the Company's inaugural investor days hosted in March 2018."

Consolidated revenues for the second quarter of 2018 were $578.9 million compared to $375.2 million for the same period of last year. The increase was primarily due to the inclusion of DigitalGlobe's imagery and services businesses as a result of the DigitalGlobe Transaction. Excluding intercompany eliminations, the DigitalGlobe businesses contributed $238.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2018. Excluding the effects of intersegment eliminations, the Space Systems segment contributed revenues of $329.9 million (three months ended June 30, 2017 - $338.2 million), the Imagery segment contributed revenues of $212.0 million (three months ended June 30, 2017 - $10.9 million), the Services segment contributed revenues of $66.3 million (three months ended June 30, 2017 - $27.2 million), partially offset by intersegment eliminations of $29.3 million (three months ended June 30, 2017 - $1.1 million). Intersegment revenue, which was attributable to the Company's Legion satellite imaging constellation within our Space Systems segment, is eliminated in consolidation.

For the second quarter of 2018, adjusted EBITDA was $171.2 million and adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of consolidated revenues ("adjusted EBITDA margin percentage") was 29.6%. This is compared to adjusted EBITDA of $66.0 million and adjusted EBITDA margin percentage of 17.6% for the second quarter of 2017. These increases are primarily due to the inclusion of the financial results of DigitalGlobe's imagery business, partially offset by a decrease in the adjusted EBITDA from the Space Systems segment.

Adjusted earnings, or net earnings excluding the impact of specified items affecting comparability, were $69.9 million ($1.22 per share) for the second quarter of 2018 compared to $35.3 million ($0.97 per share) for the same period of 2017. The increase in adjusted earnings per share reflect higher adjusted EBITDA from the DigitalGlobe acquisition, partially offset by higher amortization, depreciation, and interest expense.

The comparison of financial results under IFRS between periods is impacted by the inclusion and variability of specified items that may not be indicative of the financial performance of the Company's ongoing business. After including the specified items affecting comparability, net loss for the second quarter of 2018 was $18.6 million compared to net earnings of $19.3 million in the same period of 2017.

The Company had total funded order backlog of $3.05 billion as at June 30, 2018 compared to $3.32 billion as at December 31, 2017.

The Company has declared a quarterly dividend of C$0.37 per common share payable on September 28, 2018 to shareholders of record at the close of business on September 14, 2018.

Financial Highlights

 

2018 Financial Outlook

• Revenue decline of 2% to 4%
• Adjusted Segment EBITDA margins of ~33% (excluding corporate expense)
• Adjusted EPS expected near the top end of $4.65 to $4.85 range
• Adjusted cash flow from operations of $300M to $400M

Change in Presentation of Reportable Segments

On October 5, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of DigitalGlobe ("DigitalGlobe Transaction"). Subsequent to closing the DigitalGlobe Transaction, in the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company changed its financial reporting segments to better align with its combined product and services offerings. Beginning with first quarter of 2018, the company changed its reporting of revenue and EBITDA to include both items on a gross basis at the segment level and net of eliminations basis for the corporation.  These changes provide investors with increased transparency and allow for easier comparisons with the Company's industry peer group. The Company reports revenue and adjusted EBITDA based on three reportable segments: Space Systems, Imagery and Services. Comparative data for the second quarter of 2017 is provided for completeness and is based on actual financial results for standalone MacDonald, Dettwiler and Associates Ltd.

Segment Results

The Company analyzes financial performance by segment, which combine related activities within the Company.

 

Space Systems Results

 

Total revenues from the Space Systems segment were $329.9 million in the second quarter of 2018 compared to $338.2 million in the same period of 2017. The decrease in revenue primarily related to a lower level of geostationary communications satellite construction activity in 2018 compared to 2017, partially offset by higher revenue from the construction of the Company's Legion satellite imaging constellation and contracts with the U.S. government. Revenue attributable to the Company's Legion satellite imaging constellation is eliminated in consolidation.

Although the total dollar value of geostationary communication satellite awards to the Company has remained relatively stable since 2015, there has been a step down in total number and dollar value of awards compared to historical averages prior to 2015. Revenues have decreased year-over-year as programs awarded prior to 2015 have been completed and have been replaced by this lower level of award value since 2015. Many satellite operators in the communications industry have continued to defer new satellite construction awards to evaluate geostationary and other competing satellite system architectures and other market factors. The Company has responded appropriately to manage its workforce and costs during this challenging time. The Company continues to review strategic alternatives for its geostationary communications satellite business to improve its financial performance. No final decision has been made. At the same time, the Company continues to see strong growth in its U.S. Government and low Earth orbit communications and Earth observation businesses and remains encouraged regarding the potential in these markets.

Changes in revenues from year to year are influenced by the size, timing and number of satellite contracts awarded in the current and preceding years and the length of the construction period for satellite contracts awarded. Revenues on satellite contracts are recognized on a percentage of completion method over the construction period, which typically range between 20 to 36 months and up to 48 months in special situations. EBITDA margins can vary from quarter to quarter due to the mix of our revenues and changes in our estimated costs to complete as our risks are retired and as our estimated costs to complete are increased or decreased based on contract performance.

Adjusted EBITDA margin percentage from the Space Systems segment for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was 12.8% compared to 18.2% for the same period in the prior year. The decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2017 is primarily due to timing differences in the recognition of investment tax credits, liquidated damages recognized in 2018, and a decrease in revenue. In 2017, the majority of the investment tax credits were realized in the second quarter, whereas in 2018 the majority were realized in the first quarter.

Recent Business Developments

On July 16, 2018, the Company acquired Neptec Design Group Ltd., a leading electro-optical and electro-mechanical systems and high-performance intelligent Light Detection and Ranging company for C$42 million, comprised of approximately C$8 million in cash and the balance in common shares of Maxar. With Neptec, the Company will deliver end-to-end robotic systems and an expanded set of solutions, positioning it to capture growth in U.S., Canadian and global space exploration markets and accelerate advancement into new and expanding space segments. 

During the quarter, the Company was awarded the balance of the contract to provide communication subsystems for on-board communication signal processing capabilities for a commercial cargo system.

Imagery Segment Results

 

Total revenues from the Imagery segment were $212.0 million in the second quarter of 2018 compared to $10.9 million in the same period of 2017. The increase is primarily due to the inclusion of the financial results of the acquired DigitalGlobe imagery business that contributed $201.9 million of revenue and $131.1 million of adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of 2018. Imagery segment revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2018 included $30.0 million of revenue recognized from contract liabilities related to the EnhancedView contract.

Adjusted EBITDA margin percentage from the Imagery segment for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was 64.2% compared to 59.6% for the same period of 2017. The increase in margin percentage reflects the blend of margins from the acquired DigitalGlobe imagery business, acquired as part of the DigitalGlobe Transaction.

Recent Business Developments

In July 2018, the Company launched EarthWatch, a cloud-based subscription for viewing, streaming and downloading the Company's industry-leading geospatial data, enabling customers to solve their challenges with ease through a single powerful interface.

Services Results

 

Total revenues from the Services segment were $66.3 million in the second quarter of 2018 compared to $27.2 million in the same period of 2017. The increase is primarily due to the inclusion of the financial results from the DigitalGlobe services business that contributed $36.4 million of revenue and $3.7 million of adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of 2018.

Adjusted EBITDA margin percentage from the Services segment for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was 10.4% compared to 17.3% for the same period of 2017. The decrease in margin primarily reflects the blend of margins from DigitalGlobe's services business, acquired as part of the DigitalGlobe Transaction.

Notable bookings in the Services segment in the second quarter of 2018 included:

• A contract to provide geospatial predictive analysis services for a U.S. intelligence agency and their end users including Combatant Commands and other U.S. government agencies. This contract is to provide software development and support services, which include, gathering, analyzing, and manipulating foundation GEOINT as a basis for predictive analysis.
• A subcontract with a large prime integrator for systems engineering services. This contract delivers systems modeling, algorithm development, engineering processors, and engineering services for the U.S. government.
• A contract to provide subject matter experts in social cultural analysis, all-source analysis and signals intelligence to inform senior leaders, mission planners and deployed military personnel on socio-cultural, pattern analysis, and all-source intelligence in support of decision making, engagements and missions.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

In addition to results reported in accordance with IFRS, the Company uses certain non-IFRS financial measures as supplemental indicators of its financial and operating performance. These non-IFRS financial measures include adjusted earnings, adjusted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA. The Company believes these supplementary financial measures reflect the Company's ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful period-to-period comparisons and analysis of trends in its business.

The Company defines adjusted earnings as net earnings excluding the impact of specified items affecting comparability, including, where applicable, special income and expense items, amortization of acquisition related intangible assets, share-based compensation, and income tax expense associated with the specified items. The use of the term "special income and expense items" is defined by the Company as those that do not impact operating decisions taken by the Company's management and is based upon the way the Company's management evaluates the performance of the Company's business for use in the Company's internal management reports. These items include: acquisition and integration related expense, interest expense on dissenting shareholder liability, restructuring and enterprise improvement costs, loss from sale of subsidiary, settlement with preferred shareholders, equity in loss from joint ventures and foreign exchange differences. Foreign exchange differences consist of (i) timing differences on certain project-related foreign exchange forward contracts not subject to hedge accounting, (ii) gains and losses on translation of intercompany balances and (iii) unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses on translation of long-term foreign currency denominated financial assets and liabilities. The Company believes that the exclusion of each of these items reduces volatility and provides a more meaningful period-to-period comparison of the Company's ongoing performance. Income tax expense on adjusted earnings is computed using the estimated effective annual income tax rate, adjusted for specific items affecting comparability. Adjusted earnings per share is calculated using diluted weighted average shares outstanding and does not represent actual earnings per share attributable to shareholders. The Company believes that the disclosure of adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share allows investors to evaluate the financial performance of the Company's ongoing business using the same evaluation measures that its management uses, and is therefore a useful indicator of the Company's performance.

The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and adjusted for certain items affecting comparability as specified in the calculation of adjusted earnings. Adjusted EBITDA is presented on a basis consistent with the Company's internal management reports. The Company discloses adjusted EBITDA to capture the profitability of its business before the impact of items not considered in management's evaluation of operating unit performance. The Company also discloses segment adjusted EBITDA as a measure of each reporting segment's profitability and contribution to adjusted EBITDA. Segment adjusted EBITDA is reported prior to the deduction of corporate expenses.

The Company defines adjusted cash flow as cash provided by operating activities, excluding acquisition and integration expense, less net interest and securitization payments, and other.

Adjusted earnings, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted cash flow do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The Company cautions readers to consider these non-IFRS financial measures in addition to, and not as an alternative for, measures calculated in accordance with IFRS.

Pro Forma Financial Information

The unaudited pro forma financial information described in this release gives effect to the Company's acquisition of DigitalGlobe using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations with the Company identified as the acquirer, and is based on the respective historical unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and DigitalGlobe for the periods presented below. In determining these amounts, management has conformed DigitalGlobe's historical financial results originally prepared under U.S. general accepted accounting principles to IFRS and has assumed that the fair value adjustments, determined provisionally, that arose on the date of acquisition would have been the same if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2017. Revenue and direct costs, selling, general and administration expense have been adjusted to reflect the elimination of intra entity transactions during the periods and other expense has been adjusted to reflect the elimination of transaction related expenses.

This unaudited pro forma financial information is for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have been achieved if the acquisition had been completed at the beginning of the period for the periods presented, nor do they purport to project the results of operations of the combined entities for any future period or as of any future date.  This unaudited pro forma financial information may not be useful in predicting the results of operations of the combined company in the future. The actual results of operations may differ significantly from this pro forma financial information.

the Company's ability to generate a sustainable order rate for its satellite manufacturing operations in a market where the number of satellite construction contracts awarded varies annually; changes in government policies, priorities, regulations, use of commercial data providers to meet U.S. government imagery needs, government agency mandates, funding levels through agency budget reductions, the imposition of budgetary constraints or a decline in government support or deferment of funding for programs in which the Company or its customers participate; changes in U.S. government policy regarding use of commercial-data providers, or material delay or cancellation of certain U.S. government programs; the Company's ability to effectively execute its U.S. government access plan and realize anticipated benefits of contract awards from the U.S. government and failure by the Company to comply with U.S. regulations could result in penalties or suspension and failure by the Company to maintain the relevant clearances and approvals could limit its ability to operate in the U.S. market; certain U.S. subsidiaries of the Company are subject to the requirements of the National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual for their facility security clearance, which is a prerequisite for their ability to obtain and perform on classified contracts for the U.S. government;

natural disasters or other disruptions affecting the Company's operations and resulting in an interruption or failure of the Company's infrastructure; failure of the Company or inability to protect and maintain the Earth-imagery content stored in its ImageLibrary; loss of, or damage to, a satellite before the end of its expected operational life and the failure to obtain data or alternate sources of data for the Company's products; reliance on information technology systems and threats of disruption from security breaches and cyber-attacks; limited insurance coverage, pricing and availability; failure to anticipate changes in technology, technical standards and offerings or comply with the requisite standards, or failure to maintain technological advances and offer new products to retain customers and market position; potential infringement of the intellectual property rights of others and inadequate protection of the Company's intellectual property rights; significant competition with competitors that are larger or have greater resources, and where foreign currency fluctuations may increase competition from the Company's non-United States competitors; changes in regulations, telecommunication standards and laws in the countries in which the Company conducts business; export restrictions or the inability to obtain export approvals; failure to obtain necessary regulatory approvals and licenses, including those required by the United States government;

failure to identify, acquire, obtain the required regulatory approvals, or profitably manage additional businesses or successfully integrate any acquired businesses, products or technologies into the Company without substantial expenses, delays or other operational, regulatory, or financial problems; the Company's ability to obtain certain satellite construction contracts depends, in part, on its ability to provide the customer with partial financing of working capital and any financing provided by the Company may not be repaid or the Company may be called upon to make payments; certain customers are highly leveraged and may not fulfil their contractual payment obligations, including vendor financing; the risk that the Company will not be able to access export credit financing to facilitate the sale of the Company's communication satellites and other products to non-Canadian and non-United States customers; exposure to foreign currency fluctuations; and failure to comply with environmental regulations.

There may be additional risks and uncertainties applicable to the Company related to its acquisition of DigitalGlobe, Inc., including that: the Company may not realize all of the expected benefits of the acquisition or the benefits may not occur within the time periods anticipated; the Company incurred substantial transaction fees and costs in connection with the acquisition; significant demands will be placed on the managerial, operational and financial personnel and systems of the Company to support the expansion of operations as a result of the acquisition; the Company may not have discovered undisclosed liabilities in the course of the due diligence review of DigitalGlobe; and the Company is a target of appraisal proceedings which could result in substantial costs.
