-Revenue increased 28%
-EBITDA increased 29%
-Organic revenue increased 11%
CORAL GABLES, Fla., Aug 04, 2010 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ --MasTec, Inc. (NYSE: MTZ) today announced that revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 increased 28% to $495 million, compared with revenue of $388 million in the prior year quarter and that EBITDA, or earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, increased 29% to $46.2 million, compared with $35.9 million in the second quarter of 2009. Second quarter net income was $14.6 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, compared with $19.0 million, or $0.25 per diluted share for the prior year quarter.
It should be noted that net income for the second quarter of 2010 was burdened by a 41 percent book tax rate, compared to a negligible book tax rate for the second quarter of 2009. The quarter-over-quarter increase in mostly non-cash book tax expense was $9.8 million, or $0.11 per diluted share. The Company has $85 million in Federal tax net operating loss carryforwards, or NOLs, to utilize against most cash tax obligations.
The $107 million increase in revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 was driven by organic double-digit growth in our wireless, pipeline, renewable energy and install-to-the-home markets, and by the Precision Pipeline acquisition.
Jose R. Mas, MasTec's Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We had an excellent second quarter. Our diversification allowed us to take advantage of revenue opportunities across the many different markets we serve while improving our margins. With the start of the Ruby Pipeline project last weekend, we expect the second half of 2010 to be the best in our Company's history."
C. Robert Campbell, MasTec Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, added, "We are pleased that the first two quarters have been better than our earlier expectations. We have maintained excess capacity all year so that we can handle the second half of the year ramp-up in business that we expected. Our utilization and margins should expand nicely over the remainder of the year."
Today, the Company is reaffirming its annual 2010 guidance and issuing estimates for the third quarter.
Even though MasTec expects to pay only modest cash taxes for 2010 because of its prior years' NOLs, the Company's guidance for 2010 earnings includes an estimated 40.9% book tax rate compared to only 10.6% for 2009. Additionally, MasTec will have increased amortization of acquisition intangibles and a higher diluted share count due to two convertible debt issuances. Since these changes make earnings comparisons difficult, the Company is also providing supplemental non-GAAP EBITDA guidance. All non-GAAP numbers are reconciled on the attached tables.
The Company continues to expect 2010 revenue of approximately $2.1 billion, compared to $1.6 billion for 2009, and expects 2010 EBITDA of $218 million to $223 million, compared to $153 million for 2009. The revenue increase is over 30% and the increase in EBITDA is over 40%. MasTec expects 2010 fully diluted earnings per share of $0.92 to $0.95, compared to $0.90 for 2009. The 2010 full year guidance includes an increase in the year-over-year book tax rate, resulting in a $0.44 to $0.46 reduction in fully diluted earnings per share due to the tax provision.
As a result of the Ruby Pipeline's delayed start, which will shift revenue and margin into the fourth quarter, the Company expects third quarter 2010 revenue of approximately $550-575 million, EBITDA of $63 million and fully diluted earnings per share of $0.28. The revenue increase is $153 to $178 million or 39% to 45% compared to the third quarter a year ago. The EBITDA increase is $24 million, or 63%, for the same period. The fully diluted earnings per share of $0.28 compares to $0.27 for the third quarter of 2009. The book tax rate for the third quarter of 2010 is expected to be 40.9% and the tax rate for the same quarter in 2009 was only 2.3%. The negative year-over-year impact of the tax rate increase is a $0.17 reduction in fully diluted earnings per share.
Management will also hold a conference call to discuss these results on Thursday, August 5, 2010 at 9:00 a.m. Eastern time. The call-in number for the conference call is (719) 457-1527 and the replay number is (719) 457-0820, with a pass code of 4764535. The replay will run for 30 days.
