Vertex Energy Announces Third Quarter 2022 Results

Vertex Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:VTNR) (“Vertex” or the “Company”), a leading specialty refiner and marketer of high-quality refined products, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.

The company will host a conference call to discuss 3Q22 results today at 8:00 A.M. Eastern Time, details are included at the end of this release.

THIRD QUARTER 2022 HIGHLIGHTS

  • Reported net income of $22.2 million, or $0.28 per fully diluted share
  • Reported Adjusted EBITDA of $1.7 million
  • Continued safe operation of Mobile refinery with third quarter 2022 operational results in-line with prior guidance for throughput, operating expense per barrel, and capture rate
  • Renewable diesel conversion project continues to track on schedule and budget for scheduled start-up in the second quarter 2023
  • Hedge position expiration on September 30, 2022, positions the Company to capitalize on recent near-record refining margins in fourth quarter 2022
  • Total liquidity including restricted cash of $122.3 million as of September 30, 2022

Vertex reported third quarter 2022 net income of $22.2 million, or $0.28 per fully diluted share, versus net income of $7.9 million, or $0.12 per fully diluted share for the third quarter 2021. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) was $1.7 million for the third quarter 2022 compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $1.5 million in the prior-year period. Financial results for the third quarter 2022 include several non-recurring, extraordinary items, including a $47.7 million reversal of unrealized derivative losses from 2Q22, realized derivative losses of $37.2 million, a $12.3 million gain related to a change in derivative liability, a $17.9 million negative inventory backwardation charge and $2.9 million in charges related to the recent Shell refinery acquisition. Schedules reconciling the Company’s GAAP and non-GAAP financial results, including Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA are included later in this release (see also “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”, below).

Management Commentary

“During the third quarter, we demonstrated continued operational reliability and flexibility at our Mobile, AL facility, despite several unforeseen challenges,” stated Benjamin P. Cowart, President and CEO of Vertex, who continued, “Our third quarter financial results included some non-recurring items related to hedges and transaction costs. With those non-recurring items now behind us, we remain very confident in our future financial performance given our increased access to spot refined product margins following hedge expirations, compounded by improved efficiency and product yields, following the completion of maintenance operations during the third quarter. We now believe the Company is positioned extremely well to demonstrate our true cash generation capability during the fourth quarter of 2022 and into 2023.”

Operating Details and Discussion

Mobile Refinery Operations

The Mobile refinery operations generated $48.8 million of refining gross profit or $7.73 per barrel during the third quarter 2022, its second quarter of operations since being acquired by Vertex. The Mobile refinery financial results include the impact of $38.7 million in realized hedge losses during the quarter, as well as an inventory backwardation charge in the amount of $17.9 million. Adjusting for the impact of non-recurring items, refining gross profit at Mobile was $86.9 million, or $13.92 per barrel.

Total throughput at the Mobile refinery was 67,954 barrels per day in the third quarter, resulting in 91% utilization for the stated operable capacity of approximately 75,000 barrels per day. Total production of finished high-value light products, such as gasoline, diesel and jet fuel, represented approximately 69% of the total production in the third quarter, vs 67% in 2Q22.

The benchmark 2/1/1 Gulf Coast crack spread was $34.82 in the third quarter 2022, an increase of 159% versus the third quarter 2021, supported by reduced inventories for refined fuels, a constrained global refining complex and continued strength in demand for conventional refined products. On an adjusted gross profit per barrel basis, excluding non-fuel costs, the Mobile refinery captured 52% of the Gulf Coast 2/1/1 crack spread, in line with prior expectations.

The following table presents the summary financial and operating results from the Mobile Refinery:

Black Oil & Recovery Segment

The legacy Black Oil and Recovery segment generated gross profit of $7.2 million for the third quarter 2022. Operating income was $2.2 million in quarter. The prior year period is not comparable due to the reclassification of our segment operating and financial data, which has been consolidated into two primary reportable segments, Black Oil and Recovery and Refining and Marketing, for financial reporting purposes.

During the 2022 third quarter, the Company’s legacy Marrero (Louisiana) and Columbus (Ohio) refineries operated at 106% and 93% of total utilization, respectively.

Renewable Diesel Conversion Project Timeline & Construction Update

Renewable diesel conversion project continues on estimated timeline and budget. Vertex’s previously disclosed capital project designed to modify the Mobile, Alabama refinery’s hydrocracking unit to produce renewable diesel fuel on a standalone basis continues to progress along the Company’s recently updated construction timeline towards mechanical completion during the first quarter 2023, with initial renewable diesel production volumes expected in second quarter 2023. Expected total capital costs for the project continue to track in-line with the previously targeted project budget of $90-$100 million. Recent construction progress milestones as of November 1, 2022 include:

  • 95% of all project civil construction work completed
  • Recent procurement delays on critical bulk items resolved
  • 100% of pipe and valve fittings have arrived at the fabrication shop with all final components projected to be delivered on-site by the end of year
  • Final delivery of long lead engineered equipment is expected to be on-site on or around feed-out in January

Balance Sheet and Liquidity Update

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had total cash and equivalents of $122.3 million including $4.9 million of restricted cash on the balance sheet. Vertex had total net debt outstanding of $364.0 million at the end of the third quarter 2022, including lease finance obligations of $45.4 million. The ratio of net debt to trailing twelve month Adjusted EBITDA was 2.5x as of September 30, 2022, which includes only two quarters of Adjusted EBITDA contribution from the Mobile refinery.

Management Outlook

Based on current data and projected trends, Company management believes that several ongoing factors will continue to support a robust refined product margin environment for the US refining complex in the near to medium term. Primary market drivers include continued strength in global refined product demand, reduced capacity in global refining throughput and below average levels of domestic inventories of refined products including gasoline, and distillate. As a result, management’s expectations for a historically elevated margin environment continue through the fourth quarter of 2022 and into the first quarter of 2023.

All guidance presented below is current as of the time of this release and is subject to change. All prior financial guidance should no longer be relied upon.

Commodity Derivative Position and Price Risk Management Strategy

Vertex may, at times, utilize derivative instruments to manage exposure to fluctuations in various commodity prices, including refined fuel products sold, natural gas used in the refining process, as well as feedstocks and refined products held in inventory. Management sets and implements hedging policies in order to improve visibility on cost inputs, sales prices, and resulting cash flow generation for the purpose of planning and budgeting of the business.

As of September 30, 2022, the original crack spread hedges for the 2022 second and third quarter related to the Mobile acquisition have expired. The Company now remains exposed to prevailing market prices and conditions for the purchase and sale of all feedstocks and refined products.

PROJECTIONS

The financial projections (the “Projections”) included herein were prepared by Vertex in good faith using assumptions believed to be reasonable. A significant number of assumptions about the operations of the business of Vertex were based, in part, on economic, competitive, and general business conditions prevailing at the time the Projections were developed. Any future changes in these conditions, may materially impact the ability of Vertex to achieve the financial results set forth in the Projections. The Projections are based on numerous assumptions, including realization of the operating strategy of Vertex; industry performance; no material adverse changes in applicable legislation or regulations, or the administration thereof, or generally accepted accounting principles; general business and economic conditions; competition; retention of key management and other key employees; absence of material contingent or unliquidated litigation, indemnity, or other claims; minimal changes in current pricing; static material and equipment pricing; no significant increases in interest rates or inflation; and other matters, many of which will be beyond the control of Vertex, and some or all of which may not materialize. The Projections also assume the continued uptime of the Company’s facilities at historical levels and the successful funding of, timely completion of, and successful outcome of, planned capital projects. Additionally, to the extent that the assumptions inherent in the Projections are based upon future business decisions and objectives, they are subject to change. Although the Projections are presented with numerical specificity and are based on reasonable expectations developed by Vertex’s management, the assumptions and estimates underlying the Projections are subject to significant business, economic, and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which will be beyond the control of Vertex. Accordingly, the Projections are only estimates and are necessarily speculative in nature. It is expected that some or all of the assumptions in the Projections will not be realized and that actual results will vary from the Projections. Such variations may be material and may increase over time. In light of the foregoing, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the Projections. The projected financial information contained herein should not be regarded as a representation or warranty by Vertex, its management, advisors, or any other person that the Projections can or will be achieved. Vertex cautions that the Projections are speculative in nature and based upon subjective decisions and assumptions. As a result, the Projections should not be relied on as necessarily predictive of actual future events.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In addition to our results calculated under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), in this earnings release we also present Refining Gross Margin, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. Refining Gross Margin, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are “non-GAAP financial measures” presented as supplemental measures of the Company’s performance. They are not presented in accordance with GAAP. Refining gross margin is defined as revenues less the cost of fuel intakes and other fuel costs. It excludes operating expense and depreciation attributable to cost of revenues and other non-operating items in cost of revenues. EBITDA represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, for continued and discontinued operations. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before other income, impairment loss on assets, unrealized (gain)/loss on hedging activities, (gain)/loss on hedge roll (backwardation), environmental clean-up reserve, loss (gain) on change in value of derivative warrant liability, unrealized (gain) loss on derivative instruments, gain (loss) on intermediation agreement, Shell transaction related and acquisition expenses and stock-based compensation expense (for continued and discontinued operations) and other unusual or non-recurring items. Refining gross margin is defined as gross profit (loss) less the cost of fuel intakes and other fuel costs. Refining Gross Margin, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are presented because we believe they provide additional useful information to investors due to the various noncash items during the period. Refining Gross Margin, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are also frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. We use Refining Gross Margin, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as supplements to GAAP measures of performance to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to allocate resources and to compare our performance relative to our peers. Additionally, these measures, when used in conjunction with related GAAP financial measures, provide investors with an additional financial analytical framework which management uses, in addition to historical operating results, as the basis for financial, operational and planning decisions and present measurements that third parties have indicated are useful in assessing the Company and its results of operations. Refining Gross Margin, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are unaudited, and have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are: Refining Gross Margin, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect cash expenditures, or future or contractual commitments; EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, capital expenditures or working capital needs; EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on debt or cash income tax payments; although depreciation and amortization are noncash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements. In addition, other companies in this industry may calculate Refining Gross Margin, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than Vertex does, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. The Company’s presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items. We compensate for these limitations by providing a reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measure. We encourage investors and others to review our business, results of operations, and financial information in their entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure, and to view these non-GAAP measures in conjunction with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the sections titled “Unaudited Reconciliation of Refining Gross Margin and Refining Gross Margin per throughput barrel to Gross Profit”, each included at the end of this release and “Unaudited Consolidated Continued and Discontinued Operations Reconciliations of Net Loss attributable to Vertex Energy, Inc., to Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) and Adjusted EBITDA” each included at the end of this release.
