Goldfield Reports 2013 Second Quarter Results
MELBOURNE, Fla., Aug. 13, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The Goldfield Corporation (NYSE MKT: GV) today announced its operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. The Goldfield Corporation headquartered in Florida, through its subsidiary, Southeast Power Corporation, is a leading provider of construction services to electric utilities, with operations primarily in the southeastern, mid-Atlantic, and western regions of the United States.
Six months ended June 30, 2013
Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2013 increased 19.0% to $43.1 million from $36.2 million in the comparable prior year period. This increase was attributable to higher electrical construction revenue.
Income from continuing operations before tax decreased 56% or $3.7 million to $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, from $6.7 million in the same period in 2012. Substantially all of this decrease resulted from a strategic business decision to incur significant additional subcontractor and equipment costs, to assure completion of the South Texas Electric Cooperative ("STEC") project, by the contracted completion date of August 30, 2013. These additional costs contributed approximately $3.7 million of the total decrease in operating income. These costs largely represented additional manpower and equipment necessary to make up for project delays due to unanticipated adverse weather conditions, experienced mainly during the second quarter of 2013. As a result of these additional efforts, the project is expected to be energized and virtually completed by the August 30, 2013 deadline.
Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $1.1 million, or $0.04 per share, compared to net income of $5.1 million, or $0.20 per share, in the comparable prior year period. This decrease almost entirely resulted from the aforementioned $3.7 million charges on the STEC project and a special charge of $748,000 (after tax) in discontinued operations in connection with an EPA matter. As previously announced, Goldfield has recorded a contingent liability of $1.2 million to provide for the estimated remediation costs relating to a mining property owned over 50 years ago.
Three months ended June 30, 2013
Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2013 increased by $2.1 million to $20.6 million from $18.5 million in the comparable prior year period.
Income from continuing operations before tax decreased 98% or $3.9 million to $97,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2013, from $4.0 million in the same period in 2012. This decrease almost entirely resulted from the aforementioned $3.7 million charges on the STEC project.
Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was ($706,000), or $(0.03) loss per share, compared to net income of $2.4 million, or $0.10 per share, in the comparable prior year period. This decrease almost entirely resulted from the aforementioned $3.7 million charges on the STEC project and the special charge of $748,000 (after tax) in discontinued operations in connection with an EPA matter.
John H. Sottile, President and Chief Executive Officer of Goldfield said, "The business and prospects of our electrical construction operation remain strong, notwithstanding the income decline caused by unanticipated factors beyond our control --- extraordinary weather conditions and an environmental condition at a property sold over half a century ago. The successful and on-time completion of the largest construction project in the Company's history attest to the strength and competence of our electrical construction operation," Mr. Sottile added.
