TAMPA, Fla. –
Overseas Shipholding Group, Inc. (NYSE: OSG) (the “Company” or “OSG”) a
provider of energy transportation services for crude oil and petroleum
products in the U.S. Flag markets, today reported results for the third
quarter 2018.
Mr. Sam Norton, President and CEO, stated, “The third quarter saw OSG
make meaningful progress in executing on its business plan,
notwithstanding our short-term financial results. Highlights for the
quarter are that we secured multiple new term-charter fixtures, extended
our contract of affreightment with the Government of Israel through the
end of 2020, and announced contracts for the construction of two new
tankers and one new barge. We are well along the path to refinance and
fully pay off our term debt which matures in August 2019 using a
combination of cash and new debt. We have in hand commitments exceeding
$325.0 million from a syndicate of lenders for a new term loan, as well
as a second loan with another lender of $27.5 million, both of which we
anticipate closing in the coming weeks. We expect these financings to
add longer-term stability to our balance sheet, clearing the path for
the pursuit of expansion opportunities. We are confident that the
trajectory and mix of our revenue streams position the Company well to
benefit from the continuing arc of improving fundamentals.”
Highlights
-
Net income for the third quarter was $11.9 million, or $0.13 per
diluted share, compared with a net loss of $6.3 million, or $(0.07)
per diluted share, for the third quarter 2017. -
Shipping revenues for the third quarter 2018 were $80.5 million, down
13.7% compared with the same period in 2017. Time charter equivalent
(TCE) revenues(A), a non-GAAP measure, for the third
quarter 2018 were $72.1 million, down 15.1% compared with the third
quarter 2017. -
Operating loss for the third quarter of 2018 was $(4.1) million,
compared to operating income of $0.6 million in the third quarter of
2017. -
Third quarter 2018 Adjusted EBITDA(B), a non-GAAP measure,
was $9.2 million, down 59.1% from $22.6 million in the third quarter
2017. -
Total cash(C), a non-GAAP measure, was $124.2 million as of
September 30, 2018.
Third Quarter 2018 Results
Shipping revenues were $80.5 million for the quarter, down 13.7%
compared with the third quarter of 2017. TCE revenues for the third
quarter of 2018 were $72.1 million, a decrease of $12.8 million, or
15.1%, compared with the third quarter of 2017. Several factors
contributed to the decrease in revenues including: (a) 52 day increase
in scheduled drydocking, which is an out of service period used to
perform required major maintenance to continue trading and maximize a
vessel’s useful life, (b) 89 unplanned repair days, including one vessel
that was hit by a third-party ship, (c) one less Government of Israel
voyage during the third quarter of 2018 compared to the same period in
2017, (d) one less vessel in operation in the third quarter 2018
compared to third quarter 2017, and (e) seasonal slow-down manifested by
fewer spot market opportunities. The new term charters we secured during
the third quarter will increase our forward revenue day coverage for
2019 to approximately 65%. In the future, we expect revenues from
long-term time charters to increase and revenues from spot market
charters to decrease, which should result in decreased exposure to
fluctuations in spot market rates.
Operating loss for the third quarter of 2018 was $(4.1) million,
compared to operating income of $0.6 million in the third quarter of
2017.
Net income for the third quarter was $11.9 million, or $0.13 per diluted
share, compared with a net loss of $6.3 million, or $(0.07) per diluted
share, for the third quarter 2017.
Adjusted EBITDA was $9.2 million for the third quarter, a decrease of
$13.4 million compared with the third quarter of 2017, driven primarily
by the decline in TCE revenues.

The Company adopted ASU No. 2017-07, Improving the Presentation of
Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost
(ASC 715), which requires that an employer classify and report the
service cost component in the same line item or items in the statement
of operations as other compensation costs arising from services rendered
by the pertinent employees during the period and disclose by line item
in the statement of operations the amount of net benefit cost that is
included in the statement of operations. The other components of net
benefit cost would be presented in the statement of operations
separately from the service cost component and outside the subtotal of
income from operations. The Company adopted this accounting standard on
January 1, 2018 and has applied the guidance retrospectively.

as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents be included with cash
and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and
end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The
standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 31,
2017 and interim periods within that reporting period. The Company
adopted this accounting standard on January 1, 2018. The prior period
has been adjusted to conform to current period presentation, which
resulted in a decrease of $11,988 in net cash provided by investing
activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, related to
changes in restricted cash amounts.

Reconciliation to Non-GAAP Financial Information
The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared
in accordance with GAAP, the following non-GAAP measures may provide
certain investors with additional information to evaluate the Company’s
performance. Accordingly, these non-GAAP measures are intended to
provide supplemental information, and should not be considered in
isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared with
GAAP.
(A) Time Charter Equivalent (TCE) Revenues
Consistent with general practice in the shipping industry, the Company
uses TCE revenues, which represents shipping revenues less voyage
expenses, as a measure to compare revenue generated from a voyage
charter to revenue generated from a time charter. Time charter
equivalent revenues, a non-GAAP measure, provides additional meaningful
information in conjunction with shipping revenues, the most directly
comparable GAAP measure, because it assists Company management in making
decisions regarding the deployment and use of its vessels and in
evaluating their financial performance. Reconciliation of TCE revenues
of the segments to shipping revenues as reported in the consolidated
statements of operations follow:

Vessel Operating Contribution
Vessel operating contribution, a non-GAAP measure, is TCE revenues minus
vessel expenses and charter hire expenses.
Our “niche market activities”, which includes Delaware Bay lightering,
MSP vessels and shuttle tankers, continue to provide a stable operating
platform underlying our total US Flag operations. These vessels’
operations are insulated from the forces affecting the broader Jones Act
market.

(B) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA represents net income before interest expense, income taxes and
depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA consists of
EBITDA adjusted for the impact of certain items that we do not consider
indicative of our ongoing operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted
EBITDA do not represent, and should not be a substitute for, net income
or cash flows from operations as determined in accordance with GAAP.
Some of the limitations are: (i) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not
reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital
expenditures or contractual commitments; (ii) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital
needs; and (iii) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the
significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to
service interest or principal payments, on our debt. While EBITDA and
Adjusted EBITDA are frequently used as a measure of operating results
and performance, neither of them is necessarily comparable to other
similarly titled captions of other companies due to differences in
methods of calculation. The following table reconciles net income as
reflected in the consolidated statements of operations, to EBITDA and
Adjusted EBITDA:
