Achieved Consumer Revenue Growth of 5.2 percent
Strong Hawaiian Telcom TV subscriber growth of more than 2,600
Delivered Business Data Revenue Growth of 3.0 percent
Joined New Trans-Pacific Submarine Cable Consortium
HONOLULU, Nov. 10, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hawaiian Telcom Holdco, Inc. (Nasdaq:HCOM) reported financial results for its third quarter ended September 30. The highlights are as follows:
- Revenue totaled $97.3 million, consistent with the same period a year ago, resulting in Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $29.0 million.
- Generated net income of $1.5 million, or $0.13 per diluted share for the quarter, compared to $2.1 million, or $0.18 per diluted share in the same period a year ago. Excluding one-time costs relating to Tropical Storm Iselle recorded in the third quarter 2014, net income for the quarter would have been consistent with the prior year.
- Consumer revenue increased 5.2 percent year-over-year to $37.1 million, the best quarterly growth performance since Hawaiian Telcom TV was launched, as revenue growth in video and high-speed Internet (HSI) services more than offset declines from legacy services.
- Added over 2,600 Hawaiian Telcom TV subscribers during the third quarter, ending the quarter with approximately 25,800 subscribers resulting in penetration of 17.0 percent of households enabled.
- Enabled 10,000 households in the quarter, increasing the reach of our next-generation fiber network to 152,000 households.
- Added over 900 HSI subscribers, the strongest quarterly performance of the year, ending the quarter with approximately 112,700 subscribers. HSI average revenue per user (ARPU) grew 7 percent year-over-year.
- Business data revenue increased 3.0 percent year-over-year to $6.5 million, driven by growth in switched Ethernet, IP-VPN and dedicated Internet access revenues.
- Participating in a landmark project to build and operate the first submarine cable directly connecting Indonesia and the United States, providing the Company with new growth opportunities and securing low cost network capacity.
"Hawaiian Telcom's continued investment in its next-generation fiber network, innovative new products, and strong execution by our dedicated employees have resulted in consistent financial performance and strong results in our strategic growth services," said Eric K. Yeaman, Hawaiian Telcom's president and CEO. "We have been working very hard to transform our business, and the industry-leading growth in our consumer channel this quarter, the highest in our history as a standalone company, demonstrates that the investments we are making in strategic growth areas are yielding positive results and generating strong momentum for the future.
"Our investment in Fiber-to-the-Tower (FTTT) projects and the demand for network capacity in the form of special access circuits drove sequential growth in the wholesale channel for the first time in almost two years, so we are seeing positive results there as well. We furthered our strategy to invest in our network and systems during the quarter with our participation in a consortium to build and operate a new trans-Pacific submarine cable system. This investment not only enables us to cost-effectively meet our future bandwidth growth requirements, but it also provides us with a unique opportunity to participate in the growing demand for trans-Pacific bandwidth.
"Our investments are transforming the Company and successfully repositioning us for the future. I am pleased with the progress we are making in executing our strategic plan, and confident about the Company's growth prospects and our ability to drive long-term value for our shareholders," concluded Yeaman.
Third Quarter 2014 Results
Third quarter revenue was $97.3 million, compared to $97.7 million in the third quarter of 2013. Revenue growth in the quarter, driven by video, HSI, and $2.2 million of net incremental data center colocation revenue from SystemMetrics, was offset by a $2.4 million decrease in equipment and managed services revenue, related to lower customer premise equipment sales, and a 5.7 percent decline in voice access lines. Adjusted EBITDA was $29.0 million, a decrease of $1.0 million year-over-year, primarily due to increased direct cost of services related to video.
The Company generated net income of $1.5 million, or $0.13 per diluted share for the quarter, compared to $2.1 million, or $0.18 per diluted share in the same period a year ago. Excluding one-time costs relating to Tropical Storm Iselle recorded in the third quarter 2014, net income for the quarter would have been consistent with the prior year.
Consumer Revenue
Third quarter consumer revenue totaled $37.1 million, up 5.2 percent year-over-year primarily driven by revenue growth from two of the Company's key strategic services, Hawaiian Telcom TV and HSI services. The reach and awareness for Hawaiian Telcom TV is steadily increasing, giving the Company positive momentum and positioning it to drive further growth in video and HSI services.
Video revenue grew to $6.5 million for the quarter, up from $3.7 million in the same period a year ago, driven by the addition of approximately 10,000 subscribers for a total of approximately 25,800 subscribers at the end of the third quarter. Hawaiian Telcom TV average revenue per user (ARPU) was up approximately 5.7 percent year-over-year and 5.9 percent when compared to the second quarter 2014. During the quarter, 10,000 additional households were enabled, increasing the total number of households enabled to 152,000 with over 53 percent of those households capable of connecting directly to the Company's next-generation fiber network. Hawaiian Telcom TV penetration of households enabled was approximately 17.0 percent at the end of the third quarter.
Consumer HSI revenue also was up from the same period a year ago led by a 2.2 percent year-over-year increase in consumer HSI subscribers to approximately 92,300 and a 9.5 percent increase in consumer HSI ARPU. As of September 30, 2014, approximately 53 percent of all video subscribers had triple-play bundles and approximately 92 percent had double- or triple-play bundles. Revenue increases from video and HSI were partially offset by legacy revenue declines related to consumer voice access and long distance line losses of 8.6 percent and 7.9 percent, respectively.
Business Revenue
Third quarter business revenue totaled $41.7 million, down $1.0 million from the same period a year ago, primarily due to a $2.4 million year-over-year decrease in equipment and managed services revenue, mostly related to a $2.3 million sale of equipment to a large Hawaiʻi-based public school in the third quarter of 2013. Additionally, the year-over-year decline in legacy business access and long distance revenues contributed to the decline in business revenue. These decreases were largely offset by $2.2 million of incremental net revenue added as a result of the SystemMetrics acquisition and a 3.0 percent year-over-year increase in business data revenue driven by higher demand for IP-based data services.
Wholesale Revenue
Third quarter wholesale revenue totaled $15.8 million, down $0.7 million from the same period a year ago. Wholesale carrier data revenue declined $0.4 million year-over-year to $14.4 million, mainly due to certain wireless carriers disconnecting lower bandwidth legacy circuits, which were replaced with new, more efficient fiber-based, higher bandwidth Ethernet circuits. Switched carrier access revenue declined $0.2 million year-over-year to $1.4 million, equally attributable to the overall decline in voice access lines and minutes of use and the impact of intercarrier compensation reform.
Operating Expenses, Capital Expenditures and Liquidity
Operating expenses, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock compensation, SystemMetrics earn-out and other one-time charges, including costs relating to Tropical Storm Iselle, increased 0.9 percent to $68.3 million, primarily due to increased direct cost of services related to video and incremental costs related to the SystemMetrics' operations, partially offset by decreased cost of goods related to lower levels of equipment sales.
Capital expenditures totaled $76.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014, up from $69.8 million for the nine-month period a year ago primarily due to the success-based spending to support the growth of Hawaiian Telcom TV fiber-to-the-premise subscribers, success-based spending related to the fiber-to-the-tower initiative and costs associated with consolidating and virtualizing internal data centers. Overall, total capital expenditures for 2014 are expected to be in the high-$90 million range.
At the end of third quarter 2014, the Company had $31.7 million in cash and cash equivalents compared to $49.6 million at the end of 2013. The use of cash is primarily related to higher levels of expansion related and success-based capital expenditures, as well as temporary uses of working capital. Net Debt(2) was $261.3 million, resulting in a Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio as of September 30, 2014 of 2.22x.

(1) Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA plus non-cash stock compensation, SystemMetrics earn-out and other non-recurring costs not expected to occur regularly in the ordinary course of business. EBITDA is defined as net income plus interest expense (net of interest income and other), income taxes, depreciation and amortization and gain on sale of property. The Company believes both of these non-GAAP measures, Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA, are meaningful performance measures for investors because they are used by our Board and management to evaluate performance, enhance comparability between periods and make operating decisions. Our use of Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in the telecommunications industry. A detailed reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA to comparable GAAP financial measures has been included in the tables distributed with this release.
(2) Net Debt provides a useful measure of liquidity and financial health. The Company defines Net Debt as the sum of the face amount of short-term and long-term debt and unamortized premium and/or discount, offset by cash and cash equivalents. A detailed reconciliation of Net Debt has been included in the tables distributed with this release.
