Mitcham Industries Reports Fiscal 2020 Second Quarter Results
THE WOODLANDS, Texas, Sept. 4, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Mitcham Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: MIND) ("Mitcham" or "the Company") today announced financial results for its fiscal 2020 second quarter ended July 31, 2019.
Total revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 increased 7% to $8.9 million, compared to $8.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. The improvement was driven primarily by further growth within the Marine Technology Products segment. Revenues from the Marine Technology Products segment rose 12% to $6.7 million in the second quarter, compared to $6.0 million in the same period last year. Revenue from the Equipment Leasing segment was $2.2 million in the second quarter, down 12% from $2.5 million in the same period last year.
The Company reported a net loss of $3.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to a net loss of $4.6 million in the same period during fiscal 2019. The net loss attributable to common shareholders of $3.6 million, or $(0.30) per share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 improved from a loss of $5.0 million, or $(0.41) per share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2019.
Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 was a loss of $1.0 million, relatively flat with the loss of approximately $1.1 million in the same period last year. Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP measure, is defined and reconciled to reported net loss and cash provided by operating activities in the accompanying financial tables.
Rob Capps, Mitcham's Co-Chief Executive Officer, stated, "Our fiscal 2020 second quarter results came in as expected. We continue to see encouraging order activity for our Marine Technology products segment and saw a 12% year-over-year increase in top-line growth this quarter. Our revenues were affected mostly by the delay of seismic source controller orders that appear to have been pushed out until later this year. However, our backlog of firm orders continues to grow and reached approximately $14 million as of July 31, 2019, an increase of 27% from $11.0 million at April 30, 2019 and up from $8.7 million at January 31, 2019. Orders for our new MA-X sonar technology contributed to our backlog growth. We ramped up our research and development expenses by 60% in the quarter as we continue to expand our technology offerings and respond to specific customer requests.
"As we continue to implement our strategic shift away from energy-dependent markets, we are making progress expanding our position in marine markets with our new technology and products. For example, we are seeing new opportunities for commercial and military programs, fueled in part, we believe, by some of our recent technology developments. We are also working on a number of fronts to form partnerships with others as another means of expanding our product and technology offerings," added Capps. "The flow of firm orders in the marine seismic market, specifically for source controller solutions, has been slower than we anticipated. Our customers have shown us a number of instances in which enhancements in technology are desired, or even necessary. However, most customers have been reluctant to pull the trigger on committing the capital necessary for the enhancements. We remain confident that these opportunities will come to fruition, but the timing continues to be uncertain.
"In the Equipment Leasing segment, we saw a 12% decline in top-line growth, as expected. While we believe that this business will not return to historical levels this year, we are seeing opportunities within this part of our business, particularly in Europe.
"Regarding our financial position, our capital structure remains strong, with no funded debt on our balance sheet and ample liquidity, including cash and cash equivalents of $7.6 million as of July 31, 2019. Overall, we are very pleased with the steady pace of order activity so far this year although the uncertainty surrounding the global economy, which has impacted capital availability and product demand, has caused some of our customers to delay the timing of certain order deliveries. For this reason, we now expect to produce positive operating income by the fourth quarter of this fiscal year rather than completing our full fiscal year in positive territory."
FISCAL 2020 SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
Total revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 increased compared to last year's second quarter to $8.9 million, driven by higher marine technology products sales. Marine technology products segment sales increased to $6.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to $6.0 million in last year's second quarter. Seamap sales increased 29% from the prior year period to $4.9 million, and Klein sales increased 16% compared to the same period last year to $1.8 million. Included in last year's second quarter sales was a $797,000 contribution from SAP, which was sold in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and therefore, not included in the recent quarterly results.
Total Equipment leasing revenues were $2.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to $2.5 million in the same period last year. Equipment leasing revenues, excluding equipment sales, were $1.4 million, a decrease of 16% compared to the same period last year. Lease pool equipment sales were $455,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to $718,000 in the second quarter a year ago. Other equipment sales were $347,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 compared to $125,000 in the second quarter a year ago.
Lease pool depreciation expense in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 decreased 53% to $1.1 million from $2.4 million in the same period a year ago due to lease pool sales and minimal purchase of lease pool equipment in recent periods.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $4.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to $5.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and $5.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. As a percentage of revenues, SG&A expenses in the second quarter of 2020 decreased to 54% from 66% in last year's second quarter.

1. EBITDA is defined as net income before (a) interest income and interest expense, (b) provision for (or benefit from) income taxes and (c) depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA excludes non-cash foreign exchange gains and losses, non-cash costs of lease pool equipment sales, stock-based compensation and other non-cash tax related items. We consider EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be important indicators for the performance of our business, but not measures of performance or liquidity calculated in accordance with GAAP. We have included these non-GAAP financial measures because management utilizes this information for assessing our performance and liquidity, and as indicators of our ability to make capital expenditures and finance working capital requirements and. We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are measurements that are commonly used by analysts and some investors in evaluating the performance and liquidity of companies such as us. In particular, we believe that it is useful to our analysts and investors to understand this relationship because it excludes transactions not related to our core cash operating activities. We believe that excluding these transactions allows investors to meaningfully trend and analyze the performance of our core cash operations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to cash flow from operating activities or as alternatives to net income as indicators of operating performance or any other measures of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. In evaluating our performance as measured by EBITDA, management recognizes and considers the limitations of this measurement. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our obligations for the payment of income taxes, interest expense or other obligations such as capital expenditures. Accordingly, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are only two of the measurements that management utilizes. Other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable with similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
