First Quarter Results

January - March 2020

1. MAIN HIGHLIGHTS

  • Backlog of €10.9 billion
  • Q1 2020 Order intake of €1.9 billion
  • Sales at €1,181 million
  • Operating profit (EBIT) at €23.7 million, with a 2.0% EBIT margin
  • Net profit at €8.7 million
  • Net cash position of €419 million

Backlog at the end of March stood at €10.9 billion. In Q1 2020, the main award added to the backlog was the important refining project for Sonatrach at Haoud el-Hamra, Hassi Messaoud (Algeria), with a value of $2 billion for Técnicas Reunidas.

Total sales reached €1,181 million in Q1 2020, growing 29% versus Q1 2019. Sales in the last month of the quarter were slightly affected by Covid-19 disruptions.

Q1 2020 EBIT was €23.7 million, that compares to the Q1 2019 EBIT of €10.6 million, with an increase of 124% year on year. Growth in operating profit was favoured by the contribution of newer projects with healthier margins and despite the slowdown of project execution due to Covid in the last month of the quarter.

Net profit in Q1 2020 reached €8.7 million, a 134% higher than in the same period of last year.

Net cash position at the end of March stood at €419 million. The healthy cash position reflects the maintenance of a good progress in working capital, with no cash downpayments being received in the quarter.

Outlook and Guidance for 2020

At present, it is very difficult to accurately assess the concrete dimension of the Covid- 19 impacts. As a consequence, we have decided to temporarily suspend our quantitative guidance for the year 2020 until the level of uncertainty diminishes. Nonetheless, we still feel highly confident in the good evolution of sales and margins throughout 2020, as we are executing a strong backlog, and margins are further supported by optimisation and efficiency measures and the progression of newer projects. The company will restate a quantitative guidance for 2020 in future quarterly result presentations, as soon as there is sufficient stability in the economic environment.

January - March 2020

Juan Lladó, Técnicas Reunidas Chief Executive Officer, commented:

"We are living unprecedented times, which are a real test to all of us. I am highly satisfied with how Técnicas Reunidas has been able to respond to this challenge. Once secured the safety of our employees, clients and suppliers, we have swiftly moved to put all our technological and human capacities to work to ensure business continuity and deliver the best solutions for our customers.

I think we have done a good job in all those fronts. We have immediately adapted to smart work by ramping up all our digital and communication processes, already achieving high productivity levels in engineering. We are also thankful to our clients for the results achieved: their strong management capacities and their trust in TR are being key in efficiently adapting project execution to the new environment.

It is difficult to assess the final, exact impact of this crisis on any company. However, in our case, we start from a very solid foundation, provided by a robust backlog that ensures a high level of activity for several years. The pace of execution, in some cases, has slowed, as we are adapting to client needs and to the logistical and operating difficulties derived from the pandemic. Nevertheless, the good news are that we are currently working on every single project in the backlog, a sign of the soundness of the projects and financial strength of our clients, the major players in our industry.

Regarding our current bidding pipeline, we are only facing time delays and not project cancellations. Furthermore, we expect a stronger resilience in refining, petrochemicals and natural gas projects, as well as in projects in the Middle East. We have a strong focus on those sectors and on this region.

I feel fully confident on our capacity to face the difficulties, as managing complexity is in the DNA of our company. That confidence is also supported by a solid initial backlog and liquidity position, as well as by the efficiency measures that Técnicas Reunidas is implementing and that will bear fruit in the next quarters. Times will not be easy, but I am definitely sure that we will emerge from this major disruption as a stronger company."

In January, Sonatrach, the Algerian National Oil Company, and Técnicas Reunidas signed a contract for the execution of project for a grassroots refinery, at Haoud el- Hamra, Hassi Messaoud, in Algeria. The project will be executed in a Joint Venture (JV) with Samsung Engineering Ltd. Co. Técnicas Reunidas will be the leader of the JV, with a 55% share.

The contract has an approximate total value of US$ 3,700 million, with the share of TR exceeding US$ 2,000 million. The new refinery will have a processing capacity of five million tons/year.

First Quarter Results

January - March 2020

The scope of the project includes the execution of a completely new refinery, including all the process and environmental units, as well as the necessary auxiliary services. The project includes some of the most advanced processing units, with technologies that are targeted to deep conversion, clean fuel production and fulfilment of stringent environmental requirements.

The Hassi Messaoud project is one of the largest investments made in Algeria and is part of an ambitious program, with the objective of increasing the local production of energy products to meet with Algeria's increasing demand, while adapting oil products internally consumed to European environmental standards (Euro V). The design and execution of the plant will aim to fulfil the most stringent safety and environmental standards.

EBITDA for the first quarter of 2020 was € 35.4 million, and EBITDA margin reached 3.0%. Q1 2020 EBIT was € 23.7 million, with an operating margin of 2.0%. Growth in operating profit was favoured by the contribution of newer projects with healthier margins which overcome the small slowdown of project execution due to Covid in the quarter.

Net profit was € 8.7 million, compared to € 3.7 million in the first quarter of 2019. Net profit reflects also the effect of financial results and taxes:

  • Financial results decreased due to negative mark to market of financial assets and the negative sign of the transactions of foreign currency from the dollar appreciation versus the euro.

Net cash position stood at € 418.8 million, growing by 48.3 million from the end of December 2109. The progress in the net cash position reflects the evolution of working capital, and it was achieved despite no major downpayments were received during the quarter. Cash levels are linked to the company's exposure to current client payment terms of the Middle East region.

Cash and equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.
