Mistras Group, Inc. Announces Fiscal 2013 Results
PRINCETON JUNCTION, N.J., Aug. 7, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mistras Group, Inc. (NYSE:MG), a leading "one source" global provider of technology-enabled asset protection solutions, today reported fiscal 2013 fourth quarter and full year results. Results for the full year of fiscal 2013 include revenue of $529.3 million, and net income of $11.6 million, or $0.40 per share. The fourth quarter results include revenue of $144.5 million and a net loss of $4.5 million, or ($0.16) per share. Both the fourth quarter and full year were impacted by a $9.9 million goodwill impairment charge discussed below.
Summary financial highlights for the fiscal 2013 fourth quarter and full year:
-
Adjusted EBITDA of $16.5 million in the fourth quarter and $68.3 million for the full year.
-
Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share of $0.16 in the fourth quarter and $0.70 for the full year, which excludes the impact of the goodwill impairment charge and acquisition related expense, net.
-
21% revenue growth in fiscal 2013, including 6% organic growth for the Services segment.
-
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities of $43.5 million for the fiscal year, a 39% increase over the prior year.
- During the quarter, the Company recognized a goodwill impairment charge related to its operations in Brazil totaling approximately $9.9 million, which reduced EPS by approximately $0.34 per share in the fourth quarter and full year.
Outlook and Guidance for Fiscal 2014
Consistent with the guidance communicated during its June 26, 2013 conference call, the Company expects 2014 revenues to be in the range of $570 million to $600 million and Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $74 million to $80 million. The Company does not provide quarterly guidance, but expects to update its annual guidance at least quarterly.
Sotirios Vahaviolos, Mistras Chairman and Chief Executive Officer stated "The difficult economic environments in Europe and Brazil, as well as a tight market in the U.S. resulted in a disappointing finish for fiscal 2013. However, despite the weaker fourth quarter, we still had good profitable results for the year. We are encouraged by the 6% organic growth of our Services business under an adverse competitive U.S. marketplace in fiscal 2013, which, combined with the award of new evergreen contracts in Europe, positions us for a good start and strong finish for fiscal 2014."
