NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION IN THE UNITED STATES.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS RESTRICTION MAY CONSTITUTE A VIOLATION OF UNITED STATES SECURITIES LAW.

CALGARY, Alberta, Aug. 02, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alaris Equity Partners Income Trust (together, as applicable, with its subsidiaries, “Alaris” or the “Trust”) is pleased to announce its results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. The results are prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34. All amounts below are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.

Highlights:

  • Revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2023 of $36.9 million, and in the six months ended June 30, 2023 of $73.5 million, represent 35% and 23% decreases, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2022. On a per unit basis, revenue in Q2 2023 of $0.81, and in the six months ended June 30, 2023 of $1.62, represent period over period decreases of 35% and 24%, respectively, as compared to 2022;
    • These period over period decreases largely relate to the Kimco Holdings, LLC (“Kimco”) redemption in 2022, and the additional US$13.7 million (CA$17.2 million) of deferred distributions received as part of their redemption in Q2 2022. After reducing the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 revenue by $17.2 million, the adjusted period over period per unit decreases in revenue are approximately 7% for both Q2 2023 and the six months ended June 30, 2023;
  • Cash generated from operations, prior to changes in working capital, in the three months ended June 30, 2023 of $28.3 million and in the six months ended June 30, 2023 of $45.8 million represent 36% and 43% decreases, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2022. On a per unit basis, cash generated from operations, prior to changes in working capital, in Q2 2023 of $0.62 and in the six months ended June 30, 2023 of $1.01, represent period over period decreases of 37% and 43%, respectively, as compared to 2022;
    • These period over period decreases largely relate to the Kimco redemption and payment of deferred distributions in 2022, as noted above, and in the six months ended Q2 2023, an increase in general and administrative expenses related to the Sandbox Acquisitions, LLC and Sandbox Advertising LP (collectively, “Sandbox”) litigation and the settlement of that dispute;
  • In Q2 2023 the Trust had a net unrealized and realized gain on investments of $10.0 million as a result of increases in the fair value of specific investments, which were partially offset by decreases in the fair value of certain other investments;
  • The weighted average combined Earnings Coverage Ratio (5) for Alaris’ Partners has remained consistent with the previous quarter and is approximately 1.6x;
  • After adjusting for the settlement and legal costs associated with the Sandbox litigation, the Actual Payout Ratio(2) for Alaris for the three months ended June 30, 2023, was 65%.

“Our second quarter represents a steady period of results both for Alaris as well as our partners. Revenue came in modestly ahead of guidance and more importantly, our partners continue to show very good health. Of note, LMS has progressed as we had expected, and is poised to begin paying distributions in Q3 2023, while the rest of our partners are displaying results in line with our expectations. We expect active deployment in the second half of the year based on potential investments that are under review and the adequate capacity on our credit facility to fund our growth.” said Steve King President and CEO.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, revenue per unit decreased by 35.2% compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease in revenue is primarily a result of the $17.2 million (US$13.7 million) of deferred Distributions received in 2022 as part of the Kimco redemption. After reducing the total revenue earned in Q2 2022 by this $17.2 million, the adjusted period over period decrease in Q2 2023 revenue is 6.2%. The remaining decrease is primarily the result of LMS Management LP and LMS Reinforcing Steel USA LP (collectively, “LMS”) deferring Distributions in the first half of 2023, as well as an overall reduction in Distributions from Body Contour Centers, LLC ("BCC" or “Body Contour Centers”) as a result of the strategic transaction that occurred in Q1 2023 which involved the exchange of Alaris’ previously held preferred units in BCC for newly issued convertible preferred units that are entitled to an 8.5% Distribution as well as participation in any common distributions above 8.5%, paid when declared and as cashflows permit). These decreases were partially offset by additional Distributions from new investments in Sagamore Plumbing and Heating, LLC (“Sagamore”) and Federal Management Partners, LLC, (“FMP”).

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, revenue per unit decreased by 23.6% compared to the same period in 2022, once again primarily as a result of Kimco’s redemption in Q2 2022 and the payment of the deferred Distributions as described above. After reducing revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2022 by the $17.2 million in deferred Distributions from Kimco, the adjusted decrease in revenue is 6.7%. The deferral of Distributions from LMS and the BCC strategic transaction, also contributed to the decrease in revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as did the redemption of Falcon Master Holdings LLC, dba FNC Title Service (“FNC”), and partial redemptions by Unify Consulting, LLC ("Unify") and Fleet Advantage, LLC ("Fleet"), in Q4 2022. As described above, these decreases were partially offset by additional Distributions from new investments.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, EBITDA per unit decreased by 27.9% and 41.3%, respectively, as compared to the relative periods in 2022. These are the result of the decreases in revenue discussed above, as well as foreign exchange losses in the three and six months ended Q2 2023 (as compared to foreign exchange gains in the comparable periods in 2022). The decreases to EBITDA per unit in Q2 2023 were partially offset by a net realized and unrealized gain in the fair value of investments compared to a loss in the comparable period in the prior year. In Q2 2023 the net realized and unrealized gain on investments of $10.0 million is the result of increases to the fair value of investments, the most significant of which were in BCC, Fleet Advantage, LLC ("Fleet") and Ohana Growth Partners, LLC, formerly know as PF Growth Partners, LLC (“PFGP”). These increases were partially offset by decreases in the fair value of investments in Accscient, LLC ("Accscient") and SCR Mining and Tunneling, LP (“SCR”). Also contributing to the decrease in EBITDA per unit in the six months ended June 30, 2023, were higher general and administrative expenses as a result of the settlement and legal costs associated with the Sandbox litigation, which amounted to $13.7 million in the period.

As the Trust’s cash from operations, prior to changes in working capital, excludes primarily all non-cash items in the Trust’s consolidated statement of comprehensive income, changes in this metric from period to period on a per unit basis is an important tool to use to summarize Alaris’ ability to generate cash. The per unit decreases of 36.7% and 42.6%, in this metric in the three and six months period ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same periods in 2022, are consistent with the decreases in EBITDA discussed above, and are largely attributable to the Kimco redemption and payment of deferred Distributions in 2022. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the decease is also the result of increases in general and administrative expenses associated with the Sandbox litigation and the settlement of that dispute. After reducing the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 revenue by the $17.2 million in deferred Distributions received from Kimco, and excluding the costs associated with the Sandbox litigation in the six month period ending June 30, 2023, the adjusted per unit cash from operations, prior to changes in working capital, in Q2 2023 was 3.3% higher than in Q2 2022, and was 7.7% lower in the six months ended June 30, 2023 than it was in the comparable period in 2022.

Basic earnings per unit decreased by 27.1% in Q2 2023, and by 48.6% in the six months ended June 30, 2023, each as compared to the respective periods in 2022. This was as a result of the decreases in EBITDA per unit discussed above, partially offset by a period over period decrease in total income tax expense in both the three and six months period ended June 30, 2023.

Outlook

The Trust deployed approximately $49.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023, consistent with Alaris’ acquisition of investments in its condensed consolidated interim statement of cash flows. Additionally, Alaris re-invested into BCC during Q1 2023 as part of a strategic investment that will help extend this successful partnership further into the future. These transactions, along with a generally positive environment for the rest of Alaris’ portfolio, result in the outlook summarized below. The $36.9 million of total revenue in Q2 2023 was above previous guidance of $36.1 million primarily due to higher than expected common dividends from Alaris’ Partners.

The outlook for the next twelve months includes Run Rate Revenue (3) that is expected to be approximately $157.3 million. This includes current contracted amounts, an additional US$2.4 million from PFGP related to deferred Distributions during COVID-19, and an estimated $5.7 million of common dividends. Alaris expects total revenue from its Partners in Q3 2023 of approximately $37.6 million.

The Run Rate Cash Flow table below outlines the Trust’s expectation for revenue, general and administrative expenses, interest expense, tax expense and distributions to unitholders for the next twelve months. Run Rate Cash Flow is a Non-GAAP financial measure and is the net cash from operating activities, net of distributions paid, that Alaris is expecting to have over the next twelve months. This measure is comparable to net cash from operating activities less distributions paid, as outlined in Alaris’ condensed consolidated interim statements of cash flows. The Trust’s method of calculating this Non-GAAP financial measure may differ from the methods used by other issuers. Therefore, it may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers.

Run rate general and administrative expenses are currently estimated at $15.5 million and include all public company costs, which is a decrease in general and administrative expenses from previous guidance to reflect a reduction in legal fees as a result of the settlement of the Sandbox litigation. The Trust’s Run Rate Payout Ratio (4) is expected to be within a range of 65% and 70% when including Run Rate Revenue (3), overhead expenses and its existing capital structure. The table below sets out our estimated Run Rate Cash Flow as well as the after-tax impact of positive net deployment, the impact of every 1% increase in SOFR (based on current outstanding USD debt) and the impact of every $0.01 change in the USD to CAD exchange rate.

The senior debt facility was drawn to $188.0 million at June 30, 2023, which is net of the unamortized debt amendment and extension fees of $2.6 million. The annual interest rate on the facility, inclusive of standby charges on available capacity, was approximately 6.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Subsequent to June 30, 2023, proceeds from excess cashflow were used to repay senior debt. Following these repayments, the total drawn on the facility is currently approximately $184 million, with the capacity to draw up to an additional $266 million based on covenants and credit terms.

About the Trust:

Alaris, through its subsidiaries, provides alternative financing to private companies (“Partners”) in exchange for distributions, dividends or interest (collectively, “Distributions”) with the principal objective of generating stable and predictable cash flows for distribution payments to its unitholders. Distributions from the Partners are adjusted annually based on the percentage change of a “top-line” financial performance measure such as gross margin or same store sales and rank in priority to the owner’s common equity position.

Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures
The terms EBITDA, Actual Payout Ratio, Run Rate Revenue, Run Rate Payout Ratio, Earnings Coverage Ratio, Run Rate Cash Flow, and Per Unit amounts (collectively, the “Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures”) are financial measures used in this news release that are not standard measures under International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). The Trust’s method of calculating EBITDA, Actual Payout Ratio, Run Rate Revenue, Run Rate Payout Ratio, Earnings Coverage Ratio, Run Rate Cash Flow, and Per Unit amounts may differ from the methods used by other issuers. Therefore, the Trust’s EBITDA, Actual Payout Ratio, Run Rate Revenue, Run Rate Payout Ratio, Earnings Coverage Ratio, Run Rate Cash Flow, IRR and Per Unit amounts may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers.

(1) “EBITDA” and “EBITDA per unit” are Non-GAAP financial measures and refer to earnings determined in accordance with IFRS, before depreciation and amortization, interest expense (finance costs) and income tax expense and the same amount divided by weighted average basic units outstanding. EBITDA and EBITDA per unit are used by management and many investors to determine the ability of an issuer to generate cash from operations, aside from still including fluctuations due to changes in exchange rates and changes in the Trust’s investments at fair value. Management believes EBITDA and EBITDA per unit are useful supplemental measures from which to determine the Trust’s ability to generate cash available for servicing its loans and borrowings, income taxes and distributions to unitholders. Refer to the reconciliation of EBITDA and calculation of EBITDA per unit in the table below.

(2) “Actual Payout Ratio” is a supplementary financial measure and refers to Alaris’ total distributions paid during the period (annually or quarterly) divided by the actual net cash from operating activities Alaris generated for the period. It represents the net cash from operating activities after distributions paid to unitholders available for either repayments of senior debt and/or to be used in investing activities.

(3) “Run Rate Revenue” is a supplementary financial measure and refers to Alaris’ total revenue expected to be generated over the next twelve months based on contracted distributions from current Partners, excluding any potential Partner redemptions, it also includes an estimate for common dividends or distributions based on past practices, where applicable. Run Rate Revenue is a useful metric as it provides an expectation for the amount of revenue Alaris can expect to generate in the next twelve months based on information known.

(4) “Run Rate Payout Ratio” is a Non-GAAP financial ratio that refers to Alaris’ distributions per unit expected to be paid over the next twelve months divided by the net cash from operating activities per unit calculated in the Run Rate Cash Flow table. Run Rate Payout Ratio is a useful metric for Alaris to track and to outline as it provides a summary of the percentage of the net cash from operating activities that can be used to either repay senior debt during the next twelve months and/or be used for additional investment purposes. Run Rate Payout Ratio is comparable to Actual Payout Ratio as defined above.

(5) “Earnings Coverage Ratio (“ECR”)” is a supplementary financial measure and refers to the EBITDA of a Partner divided by such Partner’s sum of debt servicing (interest and principal), unfunded capital expenditures and distributions to Alaris. Management believes the earnings coverage ratio is a useful metric in assessing our partners continued ability to make their contracted distributions.

(6) “Run Rate Cash Flow” is a Non-GAAP financial measure and outlines the net cash from operating activities, net of distributions paid, that Alaris is expecting to have after the next twelve months. This measure is comparable to net cash from operating activities less distributions paid, as outlined in Alaris’ consolidated statements of cash flows.

(7) “Per Unit” values, other than earnings per unit, refer to the related financial statement caption as defined under IFRS or related term as defined herein, divided by the weighted average basic units outstanding for the period.

The terms EBITDA, Actual Payout Ratio, Run Rate Revenue, Run Rate Payout Ratio, Earnings Coverage Ratio, Run Rate Cash Flow and Per Unit amounts should only be used in conjunction with the Trust’s annual audited financial statements, complete versions of which available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
