First Half Results

January - June 2020

1. MAIN HIGHLIGHTS

  • Backlog of €10.1 billion
  • H1 2020 Order intake of €1.9 billion
  • Sales at €2,109 million
  • Operating profit (EBIT) at €33.1 million, with a 1.6% EBIT margin
  • Net profit at €14.1 million
  • Net cash position of €154 million

Backlog at the end of the first half of 2020 stood at €10.1 billion. In H1 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. In Q3 2020, TR added to its backlog a new environmental project for Saudi Aramco.

Total sales reached €2,109 million in H1 2020, decreasing 5% versus H1 2019. Sales in the quarter were affected by Covid-19 lockdown with the subsequent slowdown in project execution.

H1 2020 EBIT was €33.1 million, that compares to the H1 2019 EBIT of €27.4 million, with an increase of +21% year on year. This growth in operating margins is the net effect of several factors: on the positive side, EBIT was favoured by the contribution of newer projects with healthy margins; the first effects of the TR-ansforma cost and efficiency plan; and change order agreements in projects delivered or close to delivery; On the negative side, the operating profit was impacted by the effects of the Covid disruption and, in particular, the effect on the completion of energy projects.

Net profit in H1 2020 reached €14.1 million, +4% higher than in the same period of last year.

Net cash position at the end of June stood at €154 million, impacted by working capital movements related to client cash payments rescheduling, due to Covid.

Outlook and Guidance for 2020

As the pandemic keeps expanding, it continues to be difficult to accurately quantify the Covid-19 impacts in Técnicas Reunidas accounts. Nonetheless, the combination of a strong backlog with healthy margins, supported by optimisation and efficiency measures and the progression of newer projects, will result in the recovery of the path of growth at improved margins, as the pandemic eases in the countries where the company operates.

Juan Lladó, Técnicas Reunidas Chairman, commented:

"The health and safety of our employees, clients and suppliers continues to be our top priority. The COVID-19 global pandemic has heavily impacted our sector, which is facing unparalleled challenges. Técnicas Reunidas has shown its capacity to adapt to the difficult circumstances of the current times, allowing the company to execute with almost full continuity. Consequently, and despite the turmoil, Técnicas Reunidas keeps executing its ongoing projects, in full cooperation with our clients and under the strictest health measures.

In these difficult times, we feel privileged to have a very strong backlog with many projects at different stages of execution. We also have the privilege to work for top clients with whom we have forged close relationships after many years of excellence in project delivery. This investment is now allowing us to better manage this crisis together.

In addition, the company has further strengthened its liquidity structure. We have closed the renegotiation with our relationship banks for the mid-term extension of our main credit lines under favorable conditions, which allows us to keep our focus on operations.

Notwithstanding the financial impact of Covid on our accounts, Técnicas Reunidas has been able to keep profitability fairly stable. I would like to highlight the important contribution that our TR-ansforma plan is starting to provide. We are working intensively to streamline our structure and to achieve a more efficient organization, lowering costs without compromising the quality that has been the hallmark of our company. This is helping us to secure margins and will back us in our long-term quest for the leadership in our sector.

The strength of a company is proven under difficult environments. Now it is a time that will require from the maximum ability to adapt projects to the specific requirements and circumstances of each client, with total flexibility and capacity to dialog with them. I am sure Técnicas Reunidas will successfully overcome the current scenario and return to the profitability path that we were projecting for 2020 and beyond. We will not spare any effort to achieve this goal for the benefit of all our stakeholders."

First Half Results

January - June 2020

Backlog as of June 30th ,2020

At the end of June 2020, Técnicas Reunidas' backlog amounted to € 10.1 billion, in line with the € 10.0 billion reached at the end of December 2019. Oil and Gas projects comprised 95% of the total backlog, whereas the Power division accounted for 5%.

H1 2020 order intake was € 1.9 billion. The main award added to the backlog in this period was the Sonatrach project in Algeria. Después del primer semestre de 2020, la compañía añadió a la cartera otro nuevo proyecto medioambiental para Saudi Aramco.

  • In January, Sonatrach, the Algerian National Oil Company, and Técnicas Reunidas signed a contract for the execution of 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.
    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).
  • In July 28th, Saudi Aramco, the Saudi National Oil Company, and Técnicas Reunidas signed the contract for the execution on lump sum turn-key basis of a new Sour Water Stripper unit for the environmental improvement of the Ras Tanura Refinery, located in the eastern coast of Saudi Arabia.
    The Project, with a value over $ 80 million, has a schedule of thirty-four months up to completion. The scope of the contract includes engineering, procurement and supply, construction and assistance to the start-up of the plant. The Project includes the Sour Water Stripper Unit, and its "Tie in" to the existing facilities.
    The Sour Water Stripped Unit (SWSU) is an environmental unit, aimed at reducing the amounts of hydrogen sulphide and ammonia by washing them with steam. The final objective is to improve the quality of the water, which can be reused as stripped water in the washing of other units from a circular economy perspective.

January - June 2020

It is important to highlight that TR has been able to secure the award amidst the difficulties imposed by the Covid-19 pandemic to the energy sector worldwide.

This is a new and independent contract from the "Clean Fuels" Project, undertaken by Técnicas Reunidas and currently very close to its satisfactory completion. TR was awarded at the end of 2016 the whole scope of the "Clean Fuels" Project, including not only the Process Units conceived for improving the quality of the fuels up to Euro V standard, (Naphtha Hydrotreater, Catalytic Reforming, Isomerization), but also the corresponding Flare and Buildings and the modernization of the Refinery Utilities.

With this new accomplishment, TR consolidates its position in the Saudi market and shows how the trust received from one of its most important Clients, Saudi Aramco, is reinforced day by day.

EBITDA for the first half of 2020 was € 56.1 million, and EBITDA margin reached 2.7%. H1 2020 EBIT was € 33.1 million, with an operating margin of 1.6%. This growth in operating margins is the net effect of several factors: on the positive side, the

contribution of newer projects with healthy margins; the first effects of the TR- ansforma cost and efficiency plan; and change order agreements in projects delivered or closed to delivery. On the negative side, the effects of the Covid disruption and, in particular, the effect on the completion of energy projects.

Net profit was € 14.1 million, compared to € 13.6 million in the first half 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.
  • In the first half, the accounted company income tax was €6.0 million, which represents an effective tax rate of 30%.
