Civeo Corporation (NYSE:CVEO) today reported financial and operating results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2024.

Bradley J. Dodson, Civeo's President and Chief Executive Officer said, "2024 marked our 10-year anniversary as an independent company since our spin-off in 2014, and over that time our business has undergone significant change. Today, having significantly improved our capital structure, we are a diversified company providing catering and facility management services at both owned and customer-owned assets. This balanced portfolio lets us capitalize on tailwinds and mitigate headwinds. For the full-year 2024, we returned 65% of our free cash flow to shareholders through our quarterly dividend and share repurchases."

"I'm pleased with the fourth quarter results of our Australia business, delivering 23% year-over-year revenue growth, supported by the execution of our integrated services growth strategy including a recently announced six-year, A$1.4 billion contract. We are leveraging our core competency of taking care of people into a larger, capital-light market opportunity in Australia. Since entering this market via acquisition in 2019, we have successfully delivered a five-year topline organic compound annual growth rate of 38% with minimal capital investment."

"In addition, our Australian owned villages continue to experience strong occupancy levels driven by steady operational mining activity. To further capitalize on the Bowen Basin market dynamics, we recently announced an agreement to acquire four additional villages in the basin. Consistent with our strategy in our existing villages, the villages to be acquired are largely contracted under two-to-three-year contracts with new and existing blue-chip customers. This acquisition is expected to be immediately accretive to operating cash flow and will expand our presence in the world's premier metallurgical coal basin."

"Our Canadian business continued to face headwinds in the oil sands region, compounded by economic and political uncertainty. For the past decade, the underlying economics for our oil sands customers to deploy capital in the region have been challenging. Now, in addition, our customers are facing increased investor pressure for capital and operating cost discipline. As a result, headcount requirements, and therefore our occupancy in the Alberta oil sands region have declined. To address this new reality, we are right sizing our Canadian cost structure and looking to expand our geographic and end market reach to reduce our dependence on oil sands activity. During the first quarter of 2025, we expect to incur one-time restructuring costs of approximately $3 million as we cold-close existing lodges and reduce overhead headcount by approximately 25%."

Mr. Dodson continued, "To better illustrate the evolution of our business and our current asset mix, we have provided supplemental data in our earnings release tables that discloses the revenue of the ‘asset light' portion of our business, which includes hospitality services at both our owned and customer-owned assets, and the ‘asset intensive' portion of our business, which largely includes accommodation revenue associated with our owned-lodge and village assets as well as our Canadian mobile camp business."

Mr. Dodson concluded, "We enter 2025 with confidence in our ability to continue to execute on our growth strategy while adhering to our capital allocation framework."

Fourth Quarter 2024 Results

In the fourth quarter of 2024, Civeo reported revenues of $151.0 million and reported a net loss of $15.1 million, or $1.10 per diluted share. During the fourth quarter of 2024, Civeo produced operating cash flow of $9.5 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $11.4 million and free cash flow of $2.1 million.

By comparison, in the fourth quarter of 2023, Civeo generated revenues of $170.8 million and reported net income of $23.0 million, or $1.55 per diluted share. During the fourth quarter of 2023, Civeo produced operating cash flow of $40.0 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $18.5 million and free cash flow of $39.2 million.

The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to 2023 was primarily due to decreased billed rooms at the Canadian lodges. This lower level of customer spending is expected to continue as producers in the region remain focused on reducing operating costs. The year-over-year decrease in free cash flow was negatively impacted by net proceeds related to the sale of McClelland Lake Lodge and holdback collections related to the wind down of Canadian mobile camp projects in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Full Year 2024 Results

For the full year 2024, the Company reported revenues of $682.1 million and net loss of $17.1 million, or $1.19 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2024 was $79.9 million. This is compared to revenues of $700.8 million and net income of $30.2 million, or $2.01 per diluted share, for the full year 2023. Adjusted EBITDA was $106.5 million in 2023.

The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA in 2024 as compared to 2023 was largely driven by the sale of McClelland Lake Lodge in 2023 and the expected wind-down of LNG related activity in Canada, partially offset by increased billed rooms in the Australian owned villages and increased Australian integrated services activity.

Business Segment Results

(Unless otherwise noted, the following discussion compares the quarterly results for the fourth quarter of 2024 to the results for the fourth quarter of 2023.)

Australia

During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Australia segment generated revenues of $110.0 million, operating income of $14.1 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $22.2 million, compared to revenues of $89.3 million, operating income of $14.9 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $21.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.

The Australian segment experienced a 23% increase in revenues and a 3% increase in Adjusted EBITDA, driven by a significant increase in integrated services activity related to the recently announced contract.

On January 9, 2025, the Company announced a six-year A$1.4 billion integrated services contract renewal with an expanded scope in Australia. Civeo began performing the incremental scope of this contract under a limited notice to proceed agreement in the second quarter of 2024, and this contract became effective starting January 1, 2025.

Canada

During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Canada segment generated revenues of $40.7 million, operating loss of $16.8 million and negative Adjusted EBITDA of $4.7 million, compared to revenues of $72.7 million, operating income of $16.1 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $3.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.

The Canadian segment experienced a 44% decrease in revenues driven by lower billed rooms, down 42% year-over-year, primarily due to the sale of the McClelland Lake lodge and lower occupancy at the Sitka Lodge. This decrease was exacerbated by higher than typical turnaround activity in the fourth quarter of 2023.

As stated above, Civeo is taking several strategic actions to mitigate current macroeconomic risks. During the first quarter of 2025, Civeo will incur one-time restructuring costs of approximately $3 million.

Financial Condition and Capital Allocation

As of December 31, 2024, Civeo had total liquidity of approximately $202.2 million. Civeo's total debt on December 31, 2024 was $43.3 million, a $6.8 decrease from September 30, 2024 and a $22.3 million decrease from December 31, 2023. Civeo's net debt on December 31, 2024 was $38.1 million, a $5.9 million increase from September 30, 2024 and a $24.1 million decrease from December 31, 2023.

For the full year 2024, the Company repurchased 1,130,000 shares for approximately $29.6 million, compared to 564,000 shares for $11.6 million in 2023.

Civeo reported a net leverage ratio of 0.5x as of December 31, 2024.

For the full year 2024, Civeo invested $26.1 million in capital expenditures, down from $31.6 million during 2023. Capital expenditures in both periods were primarily related to planned maintenance spending on the Company's lodges and villages. Capital expenditures in 2023 included approximately $10.0 million related to customer-funded infrastructure upgrades at three Australian villages which were reimbursed by Civeo's customer compared to $2.9 million in 2024.

The Company previously announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.25 per common share, payable on March 17, 2025 to shareholders of record as of close of business on February 24, 2025. For purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada), the Company has designated this dividend to be an "eligible dividend".

In the fourth quarter of 2024, Civeo repurchased approximately 208,000 shares through its share repurchase program for approximately $5.6 million.

Full Year 2025 Guidance

For the full year of 2025, excluding any contribution from the recently announced Australian asset acquisition, Civeo expects revenues of $630.0 million to $660.0 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $80.0 million to $90.0 million and capital expenditures of $25.0 million to $30.0 million. This guidance takes into account the recent reduction in currency exchange rates experienced since late 2024.

The Company expects the recently announced Australian asset acquisition to be completed by the end of the second quarter of 2025, subject to regulatory approvals and customary conditions, and we will provide updated 2025 guidance upon completion.

SUPPLEMENTAL OPERATIONS BY SERVICE TYPE BY REGION DATA

(U.S. dollars in thousands)

(unaudited)

The following table sets forth certain supplemental data for our Australia and Canada segment revenues attributable to the asset-light ("Catering and Facility Management") portion of the Company's business and the asset-intensive ("Accommodations and Infrastructure") portion of the Company's business. We provide Catering and Facility Management services to both customer-owned assets and Company-owned villages and lodges. When we provide Catering and Facility Management services to customer-owned assets, it is reflected in "Food and other services" in our Supplemental Quarterly Segment and Operating Data. However, when we provide those same services to customers at our owned villages and lodges, it is reflected in "Accommodation and other services", which also includes the Accommodations and Infrastructure component of our owned villages and lodges. This is because we bill our customers in one combined rate for both Accommodations and Infrastructure services and Catering and Facility Management services at Company-owned villages and lodges.

The purpose of the disclosure below is to disaggregate the embedded Catering and Facility Management revenues from the "Accommodation and other services" revenues associated with our owned villages and lodges that is included in our Supplemental Quarterly Segment and Operating Data. To do so, we apply a margin that is equal to Civeo's margin in similar services we provide to customer-owned assets to the cost of sales that are associated with Catering and Facility Management services within "Accommodation and other services" for our owned villages and lodges. This table provides investors a supplemental view of the services provided by the Company which could assist with their valuation analysis.
