INAP Reports Second Quarter 2017 Financial Results
ATLANTA, Aug. 3, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Internap Corporation (NASDAQ: INAP), a provider of high-performance Internet infrastructure including Colocation, Network and Managed Services, and Cloud Services, today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2017.
"Second quarter 2017 represents a turning point for INAP," stated Peter D. Aquino, President and CEO of INAP. "Our top-line initiatives and focus are driving new sales, while we continue to rationalize our portfolio of datacenter assets. Our new sales team is building momentum, landing certain large deals that can anchor major markets. Adjusted EBITDA margin also continued to expand, hitting a high of 33%, as both our business units' contribution margins crossed above 40%. With today's reporting, we are debuting INAP's new identity as a strong, emerging retail COLO provider that can bundle Cloud and Network connectivity with a redefined data center portfolio in 20 major markets. Our effort to continue to optimize our datacenter portfolio and strive for profitable growth, we believe, will position us well for 2018."
Revenue
-- Revenue totaled $69.6 million in the second quarter, a decrease of 6.3%
year-over-year and 3.5% sequentially. However, approximately $1 million
of the decline, included both the planned closure of our 75 Broad
Street, New York facility representing $500k and other one-time events.
Excluding these two events, sequential revenue decline was 2.1% and year
over year was 4.9%. The balance of the year-over-year decrease was
attributable to the decline in network services in part due to market
pricing trends and churn which was lower than previous quarter. The
declines were partially offset year over year by growth in Agile bare
metal server revenue.
-- INAP COLO revenue totaled $52.0 million in the second quarter, a
decrease of 6.8% year-over-year and 2.4% sequentially. However,
approximately $800k of the decline was attributed to the events above.
Excluding these events, sequential revenue was down less than 1% and
year over year approximately 5.3%. The balance of the decrease year
over was attributable to lower network services in part due to market
pricing trends and churn, which was lower than prior quarter.
-- INAP CLOUD revenue totaled $17.6 million in the second quarter, a
decrease of 4.8% year-over-year and 6.4% sequentially. The decrease was
driven by churn from a small number of large customers and the impact of
the planned closure of the New York location. This was partially offset
on a year-over-year basis by growth in Agile Bare-Metal server revenue.

Beginning with first quarter 2017 reporting, INAP redefined its segment reporting into two pure play business units:
-- INAP COLO, formerly Data Center and Networking Services, comprised of colo, IP network services, and managed hosting. Managed hosting was previously included in the Cloud and Hosting Services segment; and -- INAP CLOUD, formerly Cloud and Hosting Services, comprised of AgileCLOUD, iWeb, Ubersmith and Funio.Net Loss, Normalized Net Loss, Adjusted EBITDA and Business Unit Contribution
-- GAAP net loss was $(19.3) million, or $(0.24) per share, including $4.6
million of costs associated with exit activities, restructuring and
impairment and $7.1 million of debt extinguishment and modification
expenses, compared with $(10.7) million, or $(0.21) per share in the
second quarter of 2016 and $(8.2) million, or $(0.13) per share in the
first quarter of 2017, including $7.1 million of costs associated with
exit activities, restructuring and impairment in the first quarter of
2017. GAAP net loss margin was -27.7% in the second quarter of 2017.
-- Normalized net loss was $(5.9) million compared with $(5.6) million in
the second quarter of 2016 and $(4.1) million in the first quarter of
2017.
-- Adjusted EBITDA totaled $23.1 million in the second quarter, an increase
of 14.3% compared with the second quarter of 2016 and 6.9% compared to
the first quarter of 2017. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 33.1% in the
second quarter, up 600 basis points year-over-year and 320 basis points
sequentially. The increases in Adjusted EBITDA were attributable to
continued focus on cost control and our initiatives of eliminating
unproductive sites and investing in long-term key markets.
-- Business Unit Contribution(3) - As part of the realignment of its
segments into two pure play business units, INAP COLO and INAP CLOUD,
INAP is providing a measure of unit-level profitability called business
unit contribution(3).
-- INAP COLO business unit contribution totaled $22.0 million in the
second quarter, a 10% increase compared with the second quarter of
2016 and a 10.3% increase from the first quarter of 2017. As a
percent of revenue, INAP COLO business unit contribution margin was
42.2% in the second quarter, up 640 basis points year-over-year and
480 basis points sequentially. The year-over-year business unit
contribution increase reflects improving cost control. The
sequential business unit contribution increase was primarily driven
by cost control and our initiatives of eliminating unproductive
sites and investing in long-term key markets.
-- INAP CLOUD business unit contribution totaled $8.1 million in the
second quarter, a 1.8% increase compared with the second quarter of
2016 and a 14% decrease from the first quarter of 2017. As a percent
of revenue, INAP CLOUD business unit contribution margin was 46.0%
in the second quarter, up 300 basis points year-over-year and down
410 basis points sequentially. The year-over-year increase reflects
improving cost control. The sequential decrease reflects the decline
in revenue and the closure of the 75 Broad location.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Statement
-- Cash and cash equivalents totaled $17.5 million at June 30, 2017. Total
debt was $486.8 million, net of discount and prepaid costs, at the end
of the quarter, including $197.6 million in capital lease obligations.
As previously reported, on April 6, 2017 INAP entered into a new Senior
Secured Credit Facility, including a $300 million First Lien Term Loan
and a $25 million Revolver (which remains undrawn), thereby completing
the refinancing of its senior secured debt. The capital lease balance
reflects INAP's conversion of certain operating leases to capital leases
as part of its strategic growth investments. $134.7 million of our
capital lease obligations are excluded from debt for bank covenant
purposes as they were operating leases at the time of the refinancing.
-- Cash generated from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2017
was $14.8 million compared to $14.0 million in second quarter 2016 and
$7.3 million in first quarter of 2017. Capital expenditures over the
same periods were $6.8 million compared to $14.4 million and $6.0
million, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA less CapEx was $16.3 million
compared to $5.8 million in second quarter 2016 and $15.6 million in
first quarter 2017. Free cash flow(4) over the same periods was $8.1
million compared to less than $(1) million and $1.3 million,
respectively. Unlevered free cash flow(4) was $15.6 million for the
second quarter 2017 compared to $7.4 million in second quarter 2016 and
$8.6 million in first quarter 2017.
"In the second quarter of 2017, we continued to drive improvements in operating performance while expanding our operating leverage both through cost reductions and our initiatives to eliminate unproductive sites and invest in long-term key markets," said Robert M. Dennerlein, Chief Financial Officer of INAP. "We are deep into Phases II and III of our data center footprint evaluation and network cost optimization and are closely managing the ROI of our remaining CapEx program, which has enabled us to revise Capex guidance downward for the year. These efforts are designed to improve run rate profitability, increase our asset utilization, and establish a baseline for future growth."

These forward-looking statements include statements related to sales, improved profitability, margin expansion, operations improvement, cost reductions, participation in strategic transactions, our strategy to align into pure-play businesses and our expectations for full-year 2017 revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and capital expenditures.

INTERNAP CORPORATION
NON-GAAP (ADJUSTED) FINANCIAL MEASURES
In addition to providing financial measurements based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), this earnings press release includes additional financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP ("non-GAAP"), including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA less CapEx, normalized net loss, business unit contribution, business unit contribution margin, free cash flow and unlevered free cash flow. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures can be found below.
We define the following non-GAAP measures as follows:
-- Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure and is GAAP net loss plus
depreciation and amortization, interest expense, provision (benefit) for
income taxes, other expense (income), (gain) loss on disposal of
property and equipment, exit activities, restructuring and impairments,
stock-based compensation, non-income tax contingency, strategic
alternatives and related costs, organizational realignment costs,
pre-acquisition costs and claim settlement.
-- Adjusted EBITDA margin is Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues.
-- Adjusted EBITDA less CapEx is Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures
with Adjusted EBITDA for this non-GAAP measure defined as net cash flow
provided by operating activities plus cash paid for interest, cash paid
for taxes, cash paid for exit activities and restructuring, cash paid
for strategic alternatives and related costs, cash paid for
organizational realignment costs, payment of debt lender fees and other
working capital changes less capital expenditures.
-- Normalized net loss is net loss plus exit activities, restructuring and
impairments, stock-based compensation, non-income tax contingency,
strategic alternatives and related costs, organizational realignment
costs, pre-acquisition costs, claim settlement and debt extinguishment
and modification expenses.
-- Business unit contribution is business unit revenues less direct costs
of sales and services, customer support, and sales and marketing,
exclusive of depreciation and amortization.
-- Business unit contribution margin is business unit contribution as a
percentage of business unit revenue.
-- Free cash flow is net cash flows provided by operating activities minus
capital expenditures.
-- Unlevered free cash flow is free cash flow plus cash interest expense.
We believe that presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations.
We believe that excluding depreciation and amortization and loss (gain) on disposals of property and equipment, as well as impairments and restructuring, to calculate Adjusted EBITDA provides supplemental information and an alternative presentation that is useful to investors' understanding of our current ongoing operating results and trends. Not only are depreciation and amortization expenses based on historical costs of assets that may have little bearing on present or future replacement costs, but also they are based on management estimates of remaining useful lives. Loss on disposals of property and equipment is also based on historical costs of assets that may have little bearing on replacement costs. Impairments and restructuring expenses primarily reflect goodwill impairments and subsequent plan adjustments in sublease income assumptions for certain properties included in our previously disclosed restructuring plans.
We believe that excluding interest expense, provision (benefit) for income taxes and other expense (income) from non-GAAP financial measures provides supplemental information and an alternative presentation useful to investors' understanding of our core operating results and trends. Investors have indicated that they consider financial measures of our results of operations excluding interest expense, provision (benefit) for income taxes and other expense (income) as important supplemental information useful to their understanding of our historical results and estimating our future results.
INTERNAP CORPORATION
NON-GAAP (ADJUSTED) FINANCIAL MEASURES (Continued)
We also believe that, in excluding the effects of interest expense, provision (benefit) for income taxes and other expense (income), our non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with transparency into what management uses to measure and forecast our results of operations, to compare on a consistent basis our results of operations for the current period to that of prior periods and to compare our results of operations on a more consistent basis against that of other companies, in making financial and operating decisions and to establish certain management compensation.
We believe that exit activities, restructuring and impairment charges, non-income tax contingency, strategic alternatives and related costs, organizational realignment costs, pre-acquisition costs, claim settlement costs and debt extinguishment and modification expense are unique costs, and consequently, we do not consider these charges as a normal component of expenses related to current and ongoing operations.
Similarly, we believe that excluding the effects of stock-based compensation from non-GAAP financial measures provides supplemental information and an alternative presentation useful to investors' understanding of our current ongoing operating results and trends. Management believes that investors consider financial measures of our results of operations excluding stock-based compensation as important supplemental information useful to their understanding of our historical results and estimating our future results.
We also believe that, in excluding the effects of stock-based compensation, our non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with transparency into what management uses to measure and forecast our results of operations, to compare on a consistent basis our results of operations for the current period to that of prior periods and to compare our results of operations on a more consistent basis against that of other companies, in making financial and operating decisions and to establish certain management compensation.
Stock-based compensation is an important part of total compensation, especially from the perspective of employees. We believe, however, that supplementing GAAP net loss by providing normalized net loss, excluding the effect of exit activities, restructuring and impairments, stock-based compensation, non-income tax contingency, strategic alternatives and related costs, organizational realignment cost, pre-acquisition costs, claim settlement costs, and debt extinguishment and modification expenses in all periods, is useful to investors because it enables additional and more meaningful period-to-period comparisons.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, and should be viewed as a supplement to -- not a substitute for -- our results of operations presented on the basis of GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA does not purport to represent cash flow provided by operating activities as defined by GAAP. Our statements of cash flows present our cash flow activity in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to similarly-titled measures reported by other companies.
We believe Adjusted EBITDA is used by and is useful to investors and other users of our financial statements in evaluating our operating performance because it provides them with an additional tool to compare business performance across companies and across periods. We believe that:
-- EBITDA is widely used by investors to measure a company's operating
performance without regard to items such as interest expense, income
taxes, depreciation and amortization, which can vary substantially from
company-to-company depending upon accounting methods and book value of
assets, capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired;
and
-- investors commonly adjust EBITDA information to eliminate the effect of
disposals of property and equipment, impairments, restructuring and
stock-based compensation which vary widely from company-to-company and
impair comparability.
Our management uses Adjusted EBITDA:
-- as a measure of operating performance to assist in comparing performance
from period-to-period on a consistent basis;
-- as a measure for planning and forecasting overall expectations and for
evaluating actual results against such expectations; and
-- in communications with the board of directors, analysts and investors
concerning our financial performance.
INTERNAP CORPORATION
NON-GAAP (ADJUSTED) FINANCIAL MEASURES (Continued)
Our presentation of business unit contribution and business unit contribution margin excludes depreciation and amortization in order to allow investors to see the business through the eyes of management.
We also have excluded depreciation and amortization from business unit contribution and business unit contribution margin because, as noted above, they are based on estimated useful lives of tangible and intangible assets. Further, depreciation and amortization are based on historical costs incurred to build out our deployed network and the historical costs of these assets may not be indicative of current or future capital expenditures.
Free cash flow and unlevered free cash flow are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. Free cash flow and unlevered free cash flow should not be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures. Free cash flow and unlevered free cash flow reflect an additional way of viewing our liquidity that, when viewed with our GAAP results, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our cash flows. Management strongly encourages investors to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and to not rely on any single financial measure.
We use free cash flow and unlevered free cash flow, and ratios based on it, to conduct and evaluate our business because, although it is similar to cash flow from operations, we believe it is a useful measure of cash flows since capital expenditures are a necessary component of ongoing operations. In limited circumstances in which proceeds from sales of fixed assets exceed capital expenditures, free cash flow would exceed cash flow from operations. However, since we do not anticipate being a net seller of fixed assets, we expect free cash flow to be less than operating cash flows.
Free cash flow and unlevered free cash flow have limitations due to the fact that they do not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. For example, free cash flow does not incorporate payments made to service our debt or capital lease obligations. Therefore, we believe it is important to view free cash flow as a complement to our entire consolidated statements of cash flows.
Adjusted EBITDA less CapEx is used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA less CapEx should not be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA less CapEx reflects an additional way of viewing our liquidity that, when viewed with our GAAP results, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our cash flows. Management strongly encourages investors to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and to not rely on any single financial measure.
We use Adjusted EBITDA less CapEx, and ratios based on it, to conduct and evaluate our business because, although it is similar to cash flow from operations, we believe it is a useful measure of cash flows since capital expenditures are a necessary component of ongoing operations.
Adjusted EBITDA less CapEx has limitations due to the fact that it does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. Adjusted EBITDA less CapEx does not incorporate payments made to service our debt or capital lease obligations. Therefore, we believe it is important to view Adjusted EBITDA less CapEx as a complement to our entire consolidated statements of cash flows.
Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is presented as we understand certain investors use it as one measure of our historical ability to service debt. Also adjusted EBITDA is used in our debt covenants.
Although we believe, for the foregoing reasons, that our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information to investors regarding our results of operations, our non-GAAP financial measures should only be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, any measure of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Use of non-GAAP financial measures is subject to inherent limitations because they do not include all the expenses that must be included under GAAP and because they involve the exercise of judgment of which charges should properly be excluded from the non-GAAP financial measure. Management accounts for these limitations by not relying exclusively on non-GAAP financial measures, but only using such information to supplement GAAP financial measures. Our non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same non-GAAP measures, and may not be calculated in the same manner, as those used by other companies.
