Urenco Group - Half Year Unaudited Financial Results
London - 8 August 2019 - Urenco Group ("Urenco" or "the Group"),
an international supplier of uranium enrichment services and
nuclear fuel cycle products, today announces its results for the
half year ended 30 June 2019.
Summary
-- Revenue up EUR32.7 million (4.2% increase on H1 2018) and
EBITDA up EUR88.9 million (18.0% increase on H1 2018) due to
favourable phasing of deliveries and continued strong operational
performance.
-- Net income up by EUR89.0 million primarily due to improved EBITDA performance.
-- Strong cash generation from operating activities of EUR463.3
million (1.2% increase on H1 2018) and successful tender to buy
back EUR215.6 million of Eurobonds.
-- Contract order book has an approximate value of EUR11.2
billion (EUR11.9 billion as at 31 December 2018), providing
visibility of future short to medium term cash flows.
-- Strong safety performance with improved safety culture and no
work-related lost-time injuries for 20 months.
-- Continuing to deliver on our strategic objectives through
cost savings, increased global reach and exploration of new
business opportunities.
-- The long term market outlook for enrichment continues to be
challenging but Urenco remains well positioned to support future
growth in the nuclear industry.

(i) EBITDA is earnings before exceptional items, interest
(including other finance costs), taxation, depreciation and
amortisation and joint venture results. Depreciation and
amortisation are adjusted to remove elements of such charges
included in changes to inventories and net costs of nuclear
provisions. EBITDA is reconciled to income from operating
activities on page 7.
Boris Schucht, Chief Executive of Urenco Group, commenting on
the half year results, said:
"Urenco's half year results for 2019 reflect our strong
financial and operational performance, in addition to the positive
progress made in the delivery of our strategic objectives. We
continue to focus on enhancing our impressive safety performance,
minimising the environmental impact of our operations and further
promoting the safe and inclusive nature of our culture across the
organisation.
Revenue is up in the first six months of 2019 compared to 2018
reflecting the phasing of deliveries, with the second half of the
year expected to account for a similar level of sales as the first
six months of 2019. EBITDA is favourable due to higher revenue and
lower total costs. Net income also increased reflecting the higher
EBITDA together with lower net finance costs, partially offset by
higher tax charges. The enrichment market remains challenging, with
ongoing pricing pressures increasingly reflected in the decreasing
value of our contract order book.
Nuclear plays an important role in meeting the global demand for
a continuous and secure supply of low carbon energy. Urenco is well
positioned to support this through our strategy. We will ensure we
remain a global leader in enrichment services and are exploring new
opportunities in Eastern Europe and Asia in particular. We are also
looking to increase our business in the back-end of the nuclear
fuel cycle, including decommissioning activities, through our UK
subsidiary Urenco Nuclear Stewardship. This is complemented by the
work of Urenco ChemPlants which will operate our new Tails
Management Facility and manage the by-product of our enrichment
services. I enjoyed meeting a significant number of our customers
and other stakeholders at a celebration in June marking its
completed construction.
Since joining Urenco in May 2019 I have been getting to know the
company - its employees, its facilities, stakeholders and our core
business. I have spent time understanding the challenges and
opportunities facing the company as we approach 50 successful years
of operation. I have been very impressed by the commitment of all
of our employees and am confident that Urenco will continue to be a
long term supplier to our global customers and support the nuclear
industry in providing a reliable source of sustainable, low carbon
energy."
Financial Results
Revenue for the six months ended 30 June 2019 was EUR804.6
million, an increase of EUR32.7 million (4.2%) on the EUR771.9
million for the same period last year. SWU revenues were up by
EUR78.8 million due to higher volumes which more than offset
slightly lower realised hedged SWU prices. Uranium related sales
were down by EUR32.7 million, with both volumes and prices lower
than the same period last year. Other net movements in revenue
showed a decrease of EUR13.4 million compared to the same period
last year, primarily as a result of lower sales at Urenco Nuclear
Stewardship. Overall, revenues for the first half and second half
of 2019 are expected to be at a broadly similar level, which
contrasts slightly with previous years where the second half of the
year accounted for the majority of sales.
EBITDA and Net Income margins are at a higher level in the first
half of 2019 compared to the first half of 2018, as a result of a
combination of factors. These higher levels of margin are unlikely
to be repeated in the second half of the year.
EBITDA for the first half of 2019 was EUR582.9 million, an
increase of EUR88.9 million (18.0%) from the same period last year
(H1 2018: EUR494.0 million), corresponding to an EBITDA margin of
72.4% (H1 2018: 64.0%). The increase in EBITDA is principally due
to the margin impact from increased revenue together with reduced
net costs of nuclear provisions (EUR25.6 million) and lower other
operating and administrative expenses (EUR30.6 million).
The net costs of nuclear provisions were EUR18.0 million for the
six months ended 30 June 2019, a decrease of EUR25.6 million (H1
2018: EUR43.6 million) primarily as a result of lower net costs for
tails provisions partially offset by higher costs for other nuclear
provisions. The net costs for tails provisions in the first half of
2019 were EUR30.8 million lower than those for the same period last
year. This decrease was due to optimisation of operations and the
impact of the reduction in higher assay tails associated with
enrichment services contracts. The net costs for decommissioning
provisions in the first half of 2019 decreased by EUR4.6 million
primarily driven by releases of provisions associated with cylinder
inventories. The net costs for other nuclear provisions in the
first half of 2019 increased by EUR9.8 million as a result of
optimisation of the operations and changes to the forecasts for
future re-enrichment of low assay feed.
Other operating and administrative expenses in H1 2019 were
lower by EUR30.6 million (H1 2019: EUR203.7 million, H1 2018:
EUR234.3 million) reflecting a lower average unit cost of sales as
a result of both the sales mix realised in the period and the
continued management of costs across our business.
Depreciation and amortisation for the six months ended 30 June
2019 was EUR171.4 million, compared to EUR161.0 million for the
half year 2018.
In the six months ended 30 June 2019 there were no exceptional
items (H1 2018: nil).
Net finance costs for the six months ended 30 June 2019 were
EUR51.4 million, compared to EUR75.1 million for the same period
last year, with the reduction largely due to lower losses incurred
in the period as a result of foreign exchange movements. The net
finance costs on borrowings (including the impact of interest
rate/cross currency interest rate swaps) were higher at EUR45.0
million (H1 2018: EUR39.5 million) due to the premium of EUR9.9
million paid on the early redemption of certain bonds due in
February 2021 (which completed in January), with the underlying
costs reflecting the lower levels of net debt in the first half of
2019.The other key elements of net finance costs were capitalised
interest of EUR30.1 million (H1 2018: EUR24.2 million) and the
unwinding of discounting on provisions of EUR34.3 million (H1 2018:
EUR29.5 million).
In the first half of 2019 the tax expense was EUR94.0 million
(an effective tax rate (ETR) of 25.6%), an increase of EUR22.0
million over the tax expense of EUR72.0 million for H1 2018 (ETR:
28.1%). The increase in tax expense arose primarily as a result of
the increase in accounting income before tax, partially offset by
changes in the amount of foreign exchange financing gains and
losses that are excluded from tax under the UK Disregard
Regulations.
In the first six months of 2019 net income was EUR273.5 million,
an increase of EUR89.0 million (48.2%) compared to net income of
EUR184.5 million in the same period of 2018. The net income margin
for H1 2019 was 34.0% compared to 23.9% for H1 2018. The increase
in net income reflects the impact of higher EBITDA, with lower net
finance costs in the period being offset by a higher tax
expense.
Operating cash flow before movements in working capital was
EUR593.1 million (H1 2018: EUR523.9 million) and cash generated
from operating activities was EUR463.3 million (H1 2018: EUR457.7
million). Higher cash flows from operating activities result from
higher revenues and lower cash operating costs, partially offset by
a less favourable movement in working capital compared to H1
2018.
Tax paid in the period was EUR112.2 million (H1 2018: EUR98.1
million) with the increase principally driven by higher net tax
payments in the UK, partially offset by lower net tax payments in
the Netherlands. Accordingly, net cash flow from operating
activities after tax was EUR351.1 million compared to EUR359.6
million in H1 2018.
In the first six months of 2019 the Group invested a total of
EUR54.2 million (H1 2018: EUR96.3 million), reflecting a lower
level of expenditure on core enrichment assets in line with our
strategy and the decline in the level of investment in the Tails
Management Facility (TMF) (H1 2019: EUR20.6 million, H1 2018:
EUR46.1 million).
Net cash outflow from financing activities was EUR753.2 million
(H1 2018: EUR336.2 million) which includes the placement of
EUR175.0 million in short terms deposits, the majority of which
mature in March 2020. In January 2019 Urenco announced a tender
offer which resulted in a repurchase of EUR215.6 million of our
EUR750.0 million bond due in February 2021. The total amount paid
in January 2019 to the bond holders was EUR230.5 million, which
included accrued interest of EUR5.0 million and at the purchase
price of 104.6%, a premium of EUR9.9 million. Hedge instruments
associated with the bonds that were repaid were closed out
resulting in cash proceeds of EUR4.2 million. In March 2019,
EUR300.0 million in dividends for the year ended 31 December 2018
were paid to shareholders (2018: EUR300.0 million).
Total provisions as at 30 June 2019 were EUR1,810.4 million (31
December 2018: EUR1,776.5 million) of which EUR6.0 million (31
December 2018: EUR7.5 million) was included in current liabilities.
In H1 2019, additional provisions and the unwinding of discounts
were EUR171.0 million, while utilisation and release of provisions
(including exchange differences) were EUR137.2 million. Nuclear
liabilities and the associated provisions, together with underlying
macro-economic assumptions and the required funding capability, are
kept under constant review by Urenco.
As at 30 June 2019, the Group held cash and cash equivalents of
EUR109.5 million (31 December 2018: EUR531.2 million) as cash was
utilised in the repurchase of the bonds in January 2019, and
EUR175.0 million placed in short term deposits. Net debt was
EUR1,428.7 million (31 December 2018: EUR1,370.9 million).
The Company's debt ratings were reconfirmed in April 2019 by
Moody's (Baa1/Stable) and S&P Global Ratings (BBB+/Stable).
Outlook
Market conditions remain challenging and current price levels
would not support reinvestment in our enrichment facilities. Our
order book extends to the 2030s with a value as at 30 June 2019 of
EUR11.2 billion based on EUR/$ of 1 : 1.14 (31 December 2018:
approximately EUR11.9 billion based on EUR/$ of 1 : 1.15),
providing visibility and financial stability of future
revenues.
Since 2011, the global enrichment market has been in a state of
oversupply and high levels of inventory. We believe that enriched
uranium inventories will start to decrease and, therefore, that the
uranium enrichment market will improve. However, the timeframe in
which this will occur and the extent to which the market recovers
remain uncertain.
There is an increasing global demand for sustainable, low carbon
energy. Energy demand is set to grow by more than 25%[1] by 2040
and nuclear has a key role to play to meet long-term climate goals
under the Paris Agreement.
As a leader in the nuclear industry with a clear strategy for
the future, we are well positioned to meet this need. We are unique
in the world enrichment market in having four enrichment facilities
in four different countries. This gives us the expertise, diversity
of supply and the capacity to manage the market risks and ensure we
continue to serve our customers long into the future.
We also continue to monitor the various political uncertainties
that could impact our business. We are prepared for the UK's
withdrawal from the European Union and EURATOM treaty. Stock,
equipment and other materials have been built up to continue
production at our UK site, agreements are in place to satisfy
customer needs in case transport is disrupted and export licences
are arranged post Brexit.
Urenco has provided input to the US Department of Commerce
investigation into the potential impacts of imported uranium, in
all its forms, on US national security. This followed the launch of
a section 232 investigation conducted under the authority of the
Trade Expansion Act of 1962. We welcome the decision by the
President of the United States that imports of uranium do not
impact national security and there will be no immediate remedy
imposed on this basis. We will closely monitor the findings of a
Working Group established to develop recommendations for reviving
and expanding US domestic nuclear fuel production, expected to
report in October, and will continue to demonstrate that our
involvement in the US uranium market is in the best interests of
our US customers.
