Grew Hawaiian Telcom TV subscribers by 15 percent
Increased Next-Generation Network penetration on Oʻahu to 24 percent
Completed Hawaiʻi cable landing on the trans-Pacific undersea cable system
Successfully closed on a new term loan to refinance existing credit facility
HONOLULU, May 09, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hawaiian Telcom Holdco, Inc. (NASDAQ:HCOM) reported financial results for its first quarter ended March 31. The highlights are as follows:
- Revenue totaled $94.5 million, resulting in Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $27.1 million.
- Business strategic revenue(2) was $17.1 million, compared to $18.0 million in the same period in the prior year. Excluding one-time revenues related to two large institutional customers recorded in the first quarter 2016, normalized business strategic revenue for the quarter increased 7.8 percent year-over-year, driven by strong growth in Ethernet, dedicated Internet access, and VoIP revenues.
- Consumer strategic revenue(2) increased nearly 1 percent year-over-year to $17.3 million, driven by a solid 12.4 percent growth in video services revenue.
- Hawaiian Telcom TV subscribers grew 15.3 percent to nearly 42,800. When combined with approximately 5,500 additional Internet subscribers on our Next-Generation Network (NGN) that do not have our TV service, our penetration in our NGN footprint is 24 percent, an increase from 21 percent in the same period the prior year.
- Incurred a net loss of $2.0 million, or $0.17 per diluted share for the quarter, primarily due to $3.7 million in non-cash pension expense and other related one-time costs associated with employee retirements in the quarter.
- Successfully landed the trans-Pacific undersea cable to Hawaiʻi cable landing station. Overall system is on track to be ready for service in third quarter 2017.
- Successfully refinanced the existing credit facility with a new term loan of $320 million, extending maturity, reducing effective interest rate, and providing added flexibility to enhance shareholder value.
“Hawaiian Telcom’s next-generation fiber network continues to serve as the anchor for consistent growth in strategic services across all three revenue channels,” said Scott K. Barber, Hawaiian Telcom’s president and CEO. “In the business channel, we continue to see growth in our next-generation IP-based data services, driven by a 16 percent year-over-year increase in Ethernet revenue and 14 percent year-over-year increase in VoIP revenue. Data revenues are the cornerstone of our commercial and SMB market, and represent an important source of sustainable cash flow with high gross margins. Data services also serve as the foundation for us to continue to layer on cloud and managed services.
“In the consumer channel, we continue to consistently grow market share with our superior IPTV service. TV subscriber penetration also increased to more than 21 percent in the first quarter, while TV penetration in our mature fiber footprint reached approximately 34 percent. In addition, nearly all Hawaiian Telcom TV customers subscribe to our high-margin Internet services so TV continues to be the key driver of our consumer strategic growth.
“In the wholesale channel, we continue to leverage our strategic fiber infrastructure throughout the state to enable wholesale carriers to serve their customers’ growing bandwidth needs, driving almost 4 percent year-over-year revenue increase in our fiber-based Ethernet and optical services. These next-generation IP services provide a stable source of cash flow with high rates of return. Our terrestrial fiber assets as well as our undersea fiber capacity coming later this year will further increase our capability and competitiveness, allowing us to pursue additional revenue opportunities in this channel.
“Our investments in fiber have continued to transform our company and position us well for future growth in revenue and cash flow. We believe we have a strong combination of fiber assets, product portfolio, employees and strategies to capitalize on key opportunities in this marketplace and drive long-term value for our shareholders,” concluded Barber.
First Quarter 2017 Results
First quarter revenue was $94.5 million, compared to $98.8 million in the first quarter of 2016. Excluding one-time revenues from two large institutional customers recorded in the first quarter of 2016, first quarter revenue declined $2.0 million year-over-year. Revenue declines associated with legacy voice and low-bandwidth Internet services were partially offset by revenue increases from consumer video, high-bandwidth business data services, and equipment and related services. Adjusted EBITDA was $27.1 million, a decrease of $1.1 million year-over-year.
Net loss for the first quarter was $2.0 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, primarily due to $3.7 million in non-cash pension expense and other related one-time costs associated with employee retirements in the quarter.
Business Revenue
First quarter business revenue totaled $43.9 million, compared to $44.8 million in the first quarter of 2016. Excluding the nonrecurring revenues associated with two large institutional customers mentioned above, normalized total business revenue increased 3.1 percent year-over-year and normalized business strategic revenue increased 7.8 percent year-over-year.
In business data services, customer demand for high-bandwidth IP-based services continued to rise, as reflected by a 16.1 percent year-over-year revenue increase in Ethernet and routed network services, 14.1 percent increase in normalized dedicated Internet access revenue, and 14.4 percent increase in VoIP revenue. Business VoIP lines grew 15.9 percent year-over-year to approximately 20,000 lines, offsetting more than a third of total legacy voice access line decline.
To support the growing demand for bandwidth and cloud adoption, the Company deployed its fiber GPON technology to further leverage its next-generation network to 300 additional small business addresses, providing customers access to 1 Gigabit Internet service. This brings Hawaiian Telcom’s total fiber-GPON-enabled business addresses to more than 7,000 at the end of the first quarter.
Hosted and managed services revenue for the first quarter was comparable to the prior year period.
First quarter business strategic revenue now represents 39 percent of total reported business revenue, compared to 34 percent in the same period two years ago. Increases from normalized business strategic service revenue and equipment and related services revenue offset the year-over-year decline in business legacy voice services revenue.
Consumer Revenue
First quarter consumer revenue totaled $34.3 million, compared to $36.2 million in the first quarter of 2016. Revenue growth in the quarter from Hawaiian Telcom TV and high-bandwidth fiber Internet services was more than offset by the year-over-year revenue decline in consumer legacy voice and low-bandwidth copper Internet services. First quarter consumer strategic revenue increased nearly 1 percent year-over-year and now represents half of total consumer revenue, up from 43 percent in the same period two years ago.
Hawaiian Telcom TV continued to be the driver of revenue growth in the consumer channel. Video services revenue grew 12.4 percent year-over-year to $10.6 million for the quarter and has become a $43 million and growing annualized revenue stream. Video subscribers grew 15.3 percent during the same period and the Company ended the first quarter with nearly 42,800 subscribers in service. When combined with approximately 5,500 additional Internet subscribers on our NGN footprint that do not have our TV service, our penetration rate in our NGN footprint is 24 percent, an increase from 21 percent in the same period the prior year. During the first quarter, 1,000 additional success-based households were fiber-enabled, increasing the total number of households enabled to 203,000.
Customer demand for Hawaiian Telcom Internet continued to be driven by TV attachment and higher data speeds. As of March 31, 2017, approximately 95 percent of all video subscribers had double- or triple-play bundles with Internet. In the first quarter, the number of Oʻahu Internet subscribers attached to TV grew 14.7 percent year-over-year and now represents 57 percent of total Oʻahu Internet subscribers, up from 41 percent in the same period two years ago. Customer adoption of higher speed offerings also continued to grow. The number of Internet subscribers on packages with 21 Mbps to 1 Gbps speeds in the first quarter grew 17.2 percent year-over-year. Internet services revenue for the first quarter decreased $1.0 million from the same period a year ago as a result of the combined effect of promotional pricing and a decline in low-bandwidth copper Internet subscribers.
Wholesale Revenue
First quarter wholesale revenue totaled $12.8 million, a decline of $0.9 million compared to first quarter 2016. The revenue growth in wholesale high-bandwidth Ethernet services on multi-year contracts was more than offset by the revenue decline from certain wholesale customers disconnecting low-bandwidth, less efficient legacy circuits on month-to-month service, as well as reductions in rates for certain wireless carriers in exchange for extended terms.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses, exclusive of non-cash and special items which we exclude from our Adjusted EBITDA calculation, decreased $3.2 million year-over-year to $67.4 million in the first quarter. The decrease was primarily due to reduced costs of plant maintenance, lower labor overtime and wage costs, and benefits of various other cost savings initiatives. These decreases were partially offset by higher direct cost of services related to video from increasing numbers of subscribers, as well as increased cost of goods as a result of higher levels of equipment sales.
Capital Expenditures and Liquidity
For the first quarter 2017, capital expenditures totaled $27.2 million, $0.9 million lower compared to the same period in 2016. Approximately 90 percent of first quarter capital expenditures was directed towards growth and expansion initiatives, which include payments on the trans-Pacific undersea cable system, Connect America Fund build out, spending on fiber-to-the-business, as well as success-based spending to support the growth of the Company’s next-generation services. Overall, the level of capital expenditures for 2017 is expected to be lower than in 2016 and in the high-$80 million range due to the completion of our targeted single family home fiber build.
As of March 31, 2017, the Company had $10.5 million in cash and cash equivalents compared to $15.8 million at the end of 2016. The decrease in cash is primarily related to payments on our trans-Pacific undersea cable. Net Debt(3) was $280.0 million, resulting in a Net Leverage Ratio(4) as of March 31, 2017 of 2.4x. Levered Free Cash Flow(5) for the first quarter was negative $3.7 million.

(6) Beginning in the first quarter of 2017, the Company no longer reports data center services as a separate segment and a separate revenue line item in the business channel. This is as a result of the Company’s evolving strategy to increase emphasis on bundling of strategic communications services to customers as well as maximize the efficiency benefits of an integrated operation. Data center services revenue has been reclassified to the appropriate revenue line items in the business channel. Prior period information has been revised to reflect the current presentation.
