Net cash flow from operations was $5.2
million for Fiscal Year 2017
Rand Logistics, Inc. (NASDAQ:RLOG) (“Rand”), a leading provider of
bulk freight shipping services throughout the Great Lakes Region,
today announced its financial results for the fiscal fourth quarter
and fiscal year ended March 31, 2017.
Quarter Ended March 31, 2017 Versus Quarter Ended March
31, 2016 Financial ResultsThe Company’s fleet operates on
a limited basis in its fiscal fourth quarter due to the normal
closing schedule of the locks system and winter weather conditions
on the Great Lakes. Vessel repairs and maintenance are completed in
the Company’s fiscal fourth quarter to prepare the fleet for the
upcoming sailing season. As a result, the Company incurs an
operating loss in its fiscal fourth quarter.
- Freight and related revenue generated from Company-operated
vessels (which excludes fuel and other surcharges) decreased $0.8
million to $4.0 million during the three-month period ended March
31, 2017 compared to approximately $4.8 million during the same
period in 2016.
- Total Sailing Days were 166 compared to 113 in the prior year
period.
- EBITDA equaled a loss of $7.4 million for the quarter ended
March 31, 2017 versus a loss of $5.1 million during the quarter
ended March 31, 2016, which included a one-time gain of $1.7
million related to a favorable time charter contract buyout. A
reconciliation of operating income to EBITDA is attached to this
release.
Fiscal
Year Ended March 31, 2017 Versus Fiscal Year Ended March 31,
2016 Financial Results
- Net loss was $19.9 million, or $1.08 per share on a fully
diluted basis, after incurring approximately $4.9 million of
pre-tax restructuring charges and $4.8 million of lender fees. This
compares to a loss of $5.6 million, or $0.31 per share, in the year
ago period.
- Freight and related revenue generated from Company-operated
vessels (which excludes fuel and other surcharges) decreased $13.1
million to $110.5 million compared to $123.6 million during the
year ago period. On a constant currency basis, freight and related
revenue decreased by $12.3 million. A reconciliation of freight and
other revenue generated to constant currency is attached to this
release.
- Total Sailing Days were 3,601 compared to 3,911 in the prior
year period (excluding outside charter).
- Delay Days decreased by 16.9% to 285 from 343 Delay Days. Delay
Days as a percentage of total Sailing Days was 7.9% compared to
8.8% in Fiscal Year 2016.
- Freight and related revenue per Sailing Day decreased $911, or
2.9%, to $30,690 compared to $31,601 during the year ago
period.
- Vessel operating expenses decreased $16.2 million, or 19.4%, to
$67.2 million compared to $83.4 million during the year ago period.
Vessel operating expenses per Sailing Day decreased $2,657, or
12.5%, to $18,658 from $21,315.
- Vessel margin per day increased $13, or 0.1%, to $11,756 from
$11,743 in the prior year period. On a constant currency
basis, vessel margin per day increased 1.1% or $131.
- Adjusted EBITDA after gain on foreign exchange and before
refinancing and lender fees decreased $2.8 million, or 8.6%, to
$29.7 million from $32.5 million (including a one-time gain of $1.7
million) during the prior year period. A reconciliation of
operating income to Adjusted EBITDA is attached to this
release.
Management Comments:
“We were generally pleased with our operating performance for
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017,” commented Ed Levy, President
and CEO of Rand. “Vessel margin per day, our key financial metric,
equaled $11,756 for the year ended March 31, 2017, compared to
$11,743 for the prior year and a prior three-year average of
$11,643. On a local currency basis, vessel margin increased
by 2.1% or $279 per day. Our goal is to continue to increase vessel
margin per day 4 to 6% per year on a local currency basis in line
with our historic average. We achieved our $5 million cost savings
objective and successfully renewed nine of ten expiring contracts,
and in all but one renewal were able to maintain or increase our
market share.”
“Because of delays in completing certain of our winter
maintenance projects, we expect to sail approximately 50 less days,
or 3,550 days, in Fiscal Year 2018 versus our previous guidance of
3,600 days and 3,601 in Fiscal Year 2017. For the quarter ended
June 30, 2017, we sailed for 1,005 days compared to 969 days in the
same period in 2016. Thus far in Fiscal Year 2018, we are on track
to reduce general and administrative expenses by approximately $1.5
million versus Fiscal Year 2017. In the current market environment,
our goal is to drive efficiencies by managing our capacity and
operating expenses and capitalize on the improved demand
environment relative to this time last year.”
Levy concluded, “Looking ahead, our primary focus remains
creating efficient trade patterns to maximize the percentage of
time that our vessels are in revenue generating condition and to
effectively analyze and react to operating data on a real-time
basis to ensure that we are achieving our operational performance
objectives. We are currently operating under a series of waivers
under our credit facilities, which require us, among other things,
to consummate a recapitalization transaction. We are in active
discussions with our second lien lender with respect to such
recapitalization transaction. While these discussions are ongoing,
there is no guaranty that we will be able to reach an agreement
with our second lien lender.”

conference call to discuss the results at 8:30 a.m. ET on Thursday,
