ATN International, Inc. (“ATN” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: ATNI), a leading provider of digital infrastructure and communications services, today reported financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Remarks by Michael Prior, ATN CEO“We continued to execute on our First-to-Fiber and Glass & Steel™ strategies in the third quarter, contributing to solid revenue growth of 5% across the enterprise,” said Michael Prior, Chief Executive Officer of ATN. “Operating income and Adjusted EBITDA also grew in the third quarter, reflecting the positive momentum of the capital investments in our markets, and we remain on track to achieve our 2023 guidance.

“In the third quarter, we achieved strong high-speed broadband subscriber growth of 20%. Additionally, our international markets saw a 13% annual increase in mobile subscribers,” Prior said. “Based on strong market tailwinds and our approach to maximizing the long-term value of our capital investments, we are excited about the prospects for growth and free cash flow expansion across ATN’s Caribbean operations.

"Domestically, we continue to expand our network reach to high-speed data subscribers and enterprise and government customers. At the same time, we are making progress on rationalizing legacy network and operating costs, with further reductions expected over the coming year. Our team won another $45 million in USDA grants to connect people in remote and rural areas to high-speed Internet, including a partnered project where a tribal entity is the direct award recipient. Grants such as these will fund further fiber network expansion in rural Alaska and the US southwest.

“As we move closer to the final year of our three-year schedule of investments, we are planning to come down the other side of the investment bell curve, positioning us to start to reap the benefits of our network investments more fully. These expected benefits include growth in our subscriber base, revenue, and operating margins alongside reduced capital expenditures, as reflected in our full-year 2024 preliminary outlook," Prior concluded.

Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Consolidated revenues were $191.0 million, up 5% versus $182.2 million in the year-ago quarter. This increase primarily reflects higher fixed and carrier services revenues, including those from the Sacred Wind acquisition, partially offset by lower legacy roaming and construction revenues.

Operating income rose to $6.8 million, from $1.4 million in the year-ago quarter. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to higher revenues, partially offset by an increase in operating and depreciation expenses from the Sacred Wind acquisition.

Net loss attributable to ATN stockholders was $(3.6) million, or a loss of $(0.31) per share, compared with a net loss attributable to ATN stockholders of $(2.8) million, or $(0.25) loss per share, in the year-ago quarter. The decrease in net income was due primarily to a $5.8 million increase in interest expense partially offset by a $5.4 million increase in operating income. In both periods, the loss per share calculation includes the impact of preferred dividends that are not included in the net loss calculation.

Adjusted EBITDA1 increased to $47.8 million, from $43.6 million in the year-ago quarter.

Segment Operating Results (in Thousands)

The Company recorded financial results in three categories: (i) International Telecom; (ii) US Telecom; and (iii) Corporate and Other.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Definition of Terms

In addition to financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this press release also contains non-GAAP financial measures. Specifically, the Company has included EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Net Debt, and Net Debt Ratio in this release and the tables included herein.

EBITDA is defined as Operating income (loss) before depreciation and amortization expense.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Operating income (loss) before depreciation and amortization expense, transaction-related charges, restructuring expenses, one-time impairment or special charges, and the gain (loss) on disposition of assets. To more closely align with similar calculations presented by companies in its industry, beginning in the first quarter of 2023, the Company excluded non-cash stock-based compensation in its adjustment to derive Adjusted EBITDA. Prior periods have been restated to conform to this definition change.

Net Debt is defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash.

Net Debt Ratio is defined as Net Debt divided by the trailing four quarters’ ended total Adjusted EBITDA at the measurement date.

The Company believes that the inclusion of these non-GAAP financial measures helps investors gain a meaningful understanding of the Company's core operating results and enhances the usefulness of comparing such performance with prior periods. Management uses these non-GAAP measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, as the basis for measuring the Company’s core operating performance and comparing such performance to that of prior periods. The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for results of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are set forth in the text of, and the accompanying tables to, this press release. While non-GAAP financial measures are an important tool for financial and operational decision-making and for evaluating the Company’s own operating results over different periods of time, the Company urges investors to review the reconciliation of these financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures included below, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate its business.

Cautionary Language Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

These forward-looking statements are based on estimates, projections, beliefs, and assumptions and are not guarantees of future events or results.

These and other additional factors that may cause actual future events and results to differ materially from the events and results indicated in the forward-looking statements above are set forth more fully under Item 1A “Risk Factors” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 15, 2023, and the other reports the Company files from time to time with the SEC.
