VSE Corporation Announces First Quarter 2020 Results

ALEXANDRIA, Va., April 30, 2020 - VSE Corporation (NASDAQ: VSEC, “VSE”, or the “Company”), a leading provider of aftermarket distribution and repair services for land, sea and air transportation assets for government and commercial markets, today announced results for the first quarter 2020.

FIRST QUARTER 2020 HIGHLIGHTS

Enacted COVID-19 response and business continuity plan
All repair, distribution and base locations remain open and operational
Positive free cash flow anticipated for the full year 2020

FIRST QUARTER 2020 SUMMARY RESULTS AS COMPARED TO THE FIRST QUARTER 2019

Total Revenues of $177.4 million increased 4.4%
GAAP Net Income of $3.3 million decreased 49.5%
Adjusted Net Income of $9.8 million increased 32%
Total Adjusted EBITDA of $22.7 million increased 15.4%
GAAP EPS (Diluted) of $0.30 decreased 50%
Adjusted EPS (Diluted) of $0.89 increased 30.9%
Free Cash Flow of $6.0 million increased by $5.6 million

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company reported total revenue of $177.4 million, versus $169.9 million for the same period ended 2019. The Company reported adjusted net income of $9.8 million or $0.89 per adjusted diluted share, compared to $7.4 million or $0.68 per adjusted diluted share in the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA increased to $22.7 million in first quarter 2020, versus $19.7 million for the same period in 2019.

During the first quarter 2020, the Company renamed its reporting segments to reflect the strategic focus of each business moving forward. The Aviation Group was renamed Aviation segment; the Supply Chain Management Group was renamed Fleet segment; and the Federal Services Group was renamed Federal & Defense segment.

During the first quarter, Aviation segment revenue increased 18% on a year-over-year basis, driven by strong performance and market share gains for both aftermarket distribution products and maintenance, repair and overhaul ("MRO") services. Fleet segment revenue increased 3% in the first quarter, driven by new commercial market customers. Growth in both our Aviation and Fleet segments revenue offset an anticipated decline in Federal & Defense segment revenue. Federal & Defense segment revenue declined 4% in the first quarter due to a forecasted contract expiration in January 2020. Federal & Defense bookings increased more than 30% on a year-over-year basis, as new business development efforts and recent contract renewals and wins position the segment for future growth.

COVID-19 BUSINESS UPDATE

With the recent and continuing outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), VSE has taken steps to ensure the ongoing safety of its employees, while continuing to serve customers with quality product and repair services.

The business operations of VSE are deemed critical and essential by federal and state governments. All VSE repair, distribution and base operations facilities remain open and operational, and the Company continues to deliver products and services to its customers without interruption. VSE has implemented virus mitigation and prevention protocols consistent with guidelines issued by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention at all of its operating facilities. The Company has also mandated that employees work remotely where practicable.

The Company’s Federal & Defense and Fleet segments are supported by historically stable, multi-year government contracts and long-term customer relationships. Collectively, both segments represented a combined 70% of total





revenue in 2019. The Company currently anticipates limited impact from COVID-19 on these two segments, as it continues to support the operational readiness of the Department of Defense and other federal/government customers.

The Company’s Aviation segment supports commercial and business and general aviation customers with aftermarket parts and repair services. In response to the spread of COVID-19, global air travel began to decline materially in March 2020. At present, the Company anticipates air travel, and therefore revenue passenger miles, to remain well below historical levels for the remainder of the current calendar year. Although the Company achieved significant growth and market share gains during the first quarter 2020, the Company anticipates Aviation segment performance to be adversely impacted in 2020. The Aviation segment represented approximately 30% of revenue in 2019.

VSE recently completed a workforce and cost reduction plan that is expected to reduce approximately $13 million in expenses on an annualized basis beginning in the second quarter 2020. Given expectations for a decline in the commercial aerospace market over the near-term, these cost reductions were primarily focused within the Aviation segment and reductions in corporate overhead.

FINANCIAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

As of March 31, 2020, the Company had $176 million in cash and unused commitment availability under its $350 million revolving credit facility maturing in 2023. The Company’s existing credit facility includes a $100 million accordion provision, subject to customary lender commitment approvals. As of March 31, 2020, VSE had total net debt outstanding of $273 million and $94 million trailing-twelve months adjusted EBITDA. Consistent with efforts to further lower working capital requirements, the Company has reduced forecasted capital expenditures and inventory purchases for the remainder of 2020. VSE anticipates generating positive free cash flow for the full-year 2020, as defined by operating cash flow less capital expenditures.

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

“Our diversified business model, which supports both commercial and government aftermarket customers, is a unique competitive advantage for VSE as we move through the current cycle,” stated John Cuomo, President and CEO of VSE Corporation. “Our business is balanced between historically higher-growth, commercial-facing end markets, representing approximately 38% of revenue in first quarter 2020, together with long-term, often more stable multi-year government contracts representing approximately 62% of revenue. Although COVID-19 will have an adverse impact on our aviation business this year, we continue to view this market as a significant opportunity for VSE. In the interim, we expect revenue from our government-focused businesses and customers to help offset softness in the aerospace market. Looking ahead, we remain confident in the durability of our strategy and business model amidst current market volatility; a model that we believe positions us to emerge as an even stronger company in the years ahead.

“VSE delivered more than 30% year-over-year growth in adjusted net income during the first quarter, driven by a combination of new products and services, market share gains, increased engagement with existing customers, and improved contract type mix, together with disciplined margin and expense management,” continued Cuomo. “Our Aviation segment reported record first quarter revenue and adjusted EBITDA, supported by market share gains and sales from new products and repair capabilities.

“Our Federal & Defense business made significant progress in recent months, given the addition of new leadership and a strategic plan focused on developing a pipeline of long-term government contracts,” continued Cuomo. “In the last 60 days, we were awarded more than $90 million in government task orders and delivery orders, a testament to the efforts of our team and decades of experience servicing land, air and marine transportation assets.

“Despite the market challenges resulting from COVID-19, we expect to be profitable and free cash flow positive for the full-year 2020, supported by a combination of stable revenue and profit in our Federal & Defense and Fleet segments, together with disciplined expense management and targeted reductions in capital expenditures. Exiting the quarter, we had $176 million in cash and liquidity and total net debt of $273 million, or 2.9x trailing-twelve months adjusted EBITDA. Given our continued focus on disciplined balance sheet management, we reduced total debt outstanding by $30 million in March 2020,” concluded Cuomo.

SEGMENT RESULTS

AVIATION
Distribution & Repair Services






VSE’s Aviation segment provides aftermarket repair and distribution services to commercial, cargo, business and general aviation, military/defense and rotorcraft customers globally. Core services include parts distribution, component and engine accessory maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) services, rotable exchange, and supply chain services.

Aviation segment revenue increased 18% year-over-year to $58.1 million in the first quarter 2020 through balanced contributions from both VSE's distribution and MRO services offerings. Excluding non-recurring items related to the sale of Prime Turbines LLC and other assets, Aviation operating income increased 49% to $4.5 million in the first quarter of 2020, while Aviation segment Adjusted EBITDA increased 21% to $7.6 million in the first quarter 2020. The year-over-year increase in first quarter operating income was attributable to balanced contributions and strong sales growth from both VSE's distribution and repair offerings.

The Company recently announced that Paul Goffredi, Aviation segment President, will depart the Company on May 1, 2020. John Cuomo will act as interim segment President. Mr. Cuomo has been President and CEO of VSE since April 2019. He spent 19 years in aerospace in senior leader roles prior to joining VSE, and is well positioned to support this business segment through these uncertain times.

FLEET
Distribution & Fleet Services

VSE's Fleet segment provides parts, inventory management, e-commerce fulfillment, logistics, supply chain support and other services to support the commercial aftermarket medium- and heavy-duty truck market, the United States Postal Service (USPS), and the United States Department of Defense. Core services include parts distribution, sourcing, IT solutions, customized fleet logistics, warehousing, kitting, just-in-time supply chain management, alternative product sourcing, engineering and technical support.

Fleet segment revenue increased 3% year-over-year to $53.2 million in the first quarter 2020, while operating income decreased 1% year-over-year to $6.9 million in the first quarter 2020. The segment continues to successfully progress on its customer diversification strategy, with commercial customers growing $4.8 million or 122% in the first quarter on a year-over-year basis. Fleet segment Adjusted EBITDA decreased 2% year-over-year in the first quarter to $9.6 million. The decrease in first quarter 2020 operating income was primarily attributable to customer and product mix.

FEDERAL & DEFENSE
Logistics & Sustainment Services

VSE's Federal & Defense segment provides aftermarket maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) and logistics services to improve operational readiness and extend the life cycle of military vehicles, ships and aircraft for the U.S. Armed Forces, federal agencies and international defense customers. Core services include base operations support, procurement, supply chain management, vehicle, maritime and aircraft sustainment services, IT services and energy consulting.

Federal & Defense segment revenue declined 4% year-over-year to $66.1 million in the first quarter 2020. Operating income increased 45% year-over-year to $4.9 million in the first quarter 2020. Federal & Defense segment Adjusted EBITDA increased 34% year-over-year in the first quarter 2020 to $5.7 million. The year-over-year increase in operating income for the first quarter resulted from improved performance on existing contracts and more fixed-price work with government customers.

For the first quarter 2020, Federal & Defense segment bookings increased 31% year-over-year to $67 million, while funded backlog declined 28% year-over-year to $201 million. The decline in funded backlog was attributable to the expiration of a contract in January 2020. The current management team is focused on revitalizing this business with an emphasis on growing backlog and developing a channel of new customer activity in the current year, with good progress in the first quarter.

The non-GAAP Financial Information set forth in this document is not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") under SEC Regulation G. We consider Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS (Diluted), EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, trailing-twelve months Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow as non-GAAP financial measures and important indicators of performance and useful metrics for management and investors to evaluate our business' ongoing operating performance on a consistent basis across reporting periods. These non-GAAP financial measures, however, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted Net Income represents Net Income adjusted for executive succession costs, 1st Choice Aerospace acquisition-related costs including any earn-out adjustments, loss on sale of a business entity and certain assets, gain on sale of property, and related tax impact. Adjusted EPS (Diluted) is computed by dividing net income, adjusted for the discrete items as identified above and the related tax impacts, by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding. EBITDA represents net income before interest expense, income taxes, amortization of intangible assets and depreciation and other amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA (as defined above) adjusted for discrete items as identified above, and trailing-twelve months Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Adjusted EBITDA for the most recent twelve (12) month period ending March 31, 2020. Free cash flow represents operating cash flow less capital expenditures.
