HOUSTON, Feb. 13, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- MRC Global Inc. (NYSE: MRC), the largest global distributor, based on sales, of pipe, valves and fittings and other infrastructure products and services to the energy industry, today announced fourth quarter and full year 2019 results.
The company's sales were $766 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, which was 19% lower than the third quarter of 2019 and 24% lower than the fourth quarter of 2018. Sales declined both sequentially and as compared to the fourth quarter of 2018 across all segments and end-markets.
Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $(30) million, or $(0.37) per diluted share, as compared to income of $4 million, or $0.04 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2018. The fourth quarter results include after-tax charges related to severance and restructuring and asset write offs of $19 million, or $0.23 per diluted share and $3 million related to severance and restructuring charges, or $0.03 per diluted share in 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Andrew R. Lane, MRC Global's president and chief executive officer stated, "Customer spending levels in the fourth quarter were significantly lower than expected as budget exhaustion and capital discipline drove customer behavior. Despite sales being down this quarter, we generated $108 million in cash from operations and $242 million for the year, above our stated goal. Our free cash flow for 2019 was $200 million, resulting in a free cash flow yield of approximately 20%, based on today's stock price. We also completed our most recent share buyback program in the fourth quarter. Since we began repurchasing shares in 2015, we have returned $375 million to shareholders and repurchased 24.2 million shares. Our cost and debt reduction efforts have also been successful. Excluding certain items, we reduced our SG&A in 2019 by $25 million and our outstanding debt by $133 million, as compared to last year. SG&A reductions in 2019 were taken by streamlining operations in alignment with lower activity levels, which included closing locations and other cost reduction efforts, all resulting in a reduction in headcount of 360 or 10%, including 130 in the fourth quarter."
"Due to continued weakness in market conditions, we expect 2020 activity levels to be lower than 2019. However, we remain committed to delivering the highest returns for shareholders through cost and debt reduction, operational and working capital efficiencies and a strategy of pursuing higher margin opportunities. Our business model is resilient, and we expect to continue generating strong operating cash flow with a minimum target of $110 million in 2020." Mr. Lane added.
MRC Global's fourth quarter 2019 gross profit was $131 million, or 17.1% of sales, as compared to gross profit of $171 million, or 16.9% of sales, in the fourth quarter of 2018. Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2019 and 2018 reflects expense of $1 million and $14 million, respectively, in cost of sales relating to the use of the last-in, first out (LIFO) method of inventory cost accounting. Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2019 was also negatively impacted by $8 million of pre-tax charges related to the final settlement of a multi-year customer project and the non-cash write-off of excess and obsolete inventory in our international segment. Excluding the impact of these charges, gross profit and adjusted gross profit would have been 18.1% and 20.0% in the fourth quarter of 2019, respectively.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $141 million, or 18.4% of sales, for the fourth quarter of 2019 compared to $148 million, or 14.7% of sales, for the same period of 2018. SG&A expenses for the fourth quarter of 2019 and 2018 each include $4 million of pre-tax severance and restructuring charges. SG&A expenses for the fourth quarter of 2019 also include $5 million of pre-tax charges related to the doubtful collection of a product claim against a foreign supplier and $3 million for an end of year adjustment for insurance receivables.
The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2019 reflects tax expense of $5 million on a $19 million pre-tax loss. This is due primarily to losses incurred in foreign jurisdictions with no corresponding tax benefit and additional taxes related to recent changes in tax regulations.
Adjusted EBITDA was $23 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 compared to $63 million for the same period in 2018. Please refer to the reconciliation of non-GAAP measures (adjusted gross profit and adjusted EBITDA) to GAAP measures (gross profit and net income) in this release.
Sales by Segment
U.S. sales in the fourth quarter of 2019 were $608 million, down $170 million, or 22%, from the same quarter in 2018. Midstream declined $74 million, or 21%, primarily due to lower sales in the transmission and gathering sub-sector. Upstream declined $57 million, or 29%, as a result of end of year budget exhaustion and increased capital discipline by our customers. Downstream declined by $39 million, or 17%, due primarily to non-recurring project work that resulted in a $20 million decrease in sales.
Canadian sales in the fourth quarter of 2019 were $43 million, down $36 million, or 46%, from the same quarter in 2018 driven by the upstream sector, which continues to be negatively impacted by low Canadian oil prices and government-imposed production limits.
International sales in the fourth quarter of 2019 were $115 million, down $37 million, or 24%, from the same period in 2018 reflecting the conclusion of a major upstream project in Kazakhstan, as well as, the impact of weaker foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar, which unfavorably impacted sales by $4 million. Excluding the impact of the project and weaker foreign currencies, sales increased $5 million, or 5%, due to improved market conditions, particularly in Norway and the United Kingdom.
Sales by Sector
Upstream sales in the fourth quarter of 2019 were $224 million, or 29% of total sales, down $115 million, or 34%, from the fourth quarter of 2018. The decrease in upstream sales was across all geographic segments, as described above.
Midstream sales in the fourth quarter of 2019 were $298 million, or 39% of total sales, down $75 million, or 20%, from the fourth quarter of 2018. Sales to transmission and gathering customers were down 34% over the same quarter in 2018 due to customer capital discipline while sales to gas utility customers were down 9% for the quarter primarily due to the timing of deliveries and lower activity levels for a couple of customers. Gas utility sales were up 3% in 2019 over 2018, as the company continues to grow its share in this end market.
Downstream sales in the fourth quarter of 2019 were $244 million, or 32% of total sales, down $53 million, or 18%, from the fourth quarter of 2018 due primarily to the U.S. segment as described above.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
Cash balances were $32 million at December 31, 2019. Debt, net of cash, was $519 million and excess availability under the company's asset-based lending facility was $451 million as of December 31, 2019. Cash provided by operations was $108 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 resulting in $242 million of cash provided by operations in 2019. Free cash flow (cash provided by operations less capital expenditures less preferred stock dividends) was $200 million in 2019. The company believes MRC Global's liquidity position of $483 million is sufficient to support the business and capital needs of the company.
Share Repurchase Programs
In October 2018, the board of directors authorized a share repurchase program for common stock of up to $150 million, which was completed in the fourth quarter of 2019. During the fourth quarter of 2019, the company purchased the remaining $12 million of its common stock at an average price of $15.15 per share. In 2019, the company purchased $75 million of its common stock at an average price of $15.38 per share.
Since 2015, the company has purchased $375 million or 24.2 million shares at an average price of $15.48 per share. The outstanding share count as of December 31, 2019 was 81.4 million shares.

The company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income plus interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, amortization of intangibles, and certain other expenses, including non-cash expenses, (such as equity-based compensation, severance and restructuring, changes in the fair value of derivative instruments and asset impairments, including inventory) and plus or minus the impact of its LIFO inventory costing methodology. The company presents Adjusted EBITDA because the company believes Adjusted EBITDA is a useful indicator of the company's operating performance. Among other things, Adjusted EBITDA measures the company's operating performance without regard to certain non-recurring, non-cash or transaction-related expenses. Adjusted EBITDA, however, does not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, cash flow from operations or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Because Adjusted EBITDA does not account for certain expenses, its utility as a measure of the company's operating performance has material limitations. Because of these limitations, the company does not view Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as a primary performance measure and also uses other measures, such as net income and sales, to measure operating performance. See the company's Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for a more thorough discussion of the use of Adjusted EBITDA. |

Includes $5 million of non-cash charges (pre-tax) recorded in cost of goods sold in our international segment for excess and obsolete inventory, and $3 million of charges (pre-tax) recorded in sales for the final settlement of a multi-year customer project, for each of the three months and year ended December 31, 2019. Excluding these charges for the three months ended December 31, 2019 gross profit, as reported would be $139 million (18.1%) and adjusted gross profit would be $154 million (20.0%). Excluding these charges for the year ended December 31, 2019 gross profit, as reported would be $661 million (18.0%) and adjusted gross profit would be $722 million (19.7%). |
The company defines Adjusted Gross Profit as sales, less cost of sales, plus depreciation and amortization, plus amortization of intangibles, and plus or minus the impact of its LIFO inventory costing methodology. The company presents Adjusted Gross Profit because the company believes it is a useful indicator of the company's operating performance without regard to items, such as amortization of intangibles, that can vary substantially from company to company depending upon the nature and extent of acquisitions of which they have been involved. Similarly, the impact of the LIFO inventory costing method can cause results to vary substantially from company to company depending upon whether they elect to utilize LIFO and depending upon which method they may elect. The company uses Adjusted Gross Profit as a key performance indicator in managing its business. The company believes that gross profit is the financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles that is most directly comparable to Adjusted Gross Profit. |

The company defines Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders (a non-GAAP measure) as Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders plus or minus the after-tax impact of its LIFO inventory costing methodology. The company presents Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders and related per share amounts because the company believes it provides useful comparisons of the company's operating results to other companies, including those companies with whom we compete in the distribution of pipe, valves and fittings to the energy industry, without regard to the LIFO inventory costing methodology. The impact of the LIFO inventory costing methodology can cause results to vary substantially from company to company depending upon whether they elect to utilize LIFO and depending upon which method they may elect. The company believes that Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders is the financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles that is most directly compared to Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders. |
