MANKATO, Minn., Nov. 1, 2011 — HickoryTech Corporation (NASDAQ: HTCO) today reported earnings for the third quarter ended Sept. 30, 2011. Revenue totaled $45.2 million, a 4 percent increase year-over-year. Third quarter net income of $3.0 million, or 22 cents per diluted share, was down year over year partially due to a $1.9 million release of income tax reserves and a $1.1 million fiber construction project in third quarter 2010, both which increased net income. Third quarter net income is 10 percent higher on a sequential basis.
“Our third quarter results show continued positive progress with our growth strategy and key initiatives,” said John Finke, HickoryTech’s president and chief executive officer. “Managing our strong cash flows and leveraging investments in key strategic areas continues to be our focus. We see solid demand for our business services and our consumer business remains stable. Extending our fiber network allows us to pursue new growth opportunities across multiple customer segments in new and existing markets. We are on track to meet and exceed our objectives for fiscal 2011.”
Capital expenditures in the third quarter totaled $5.6 million, down $900,000 from the same period last year. Business Sector capital investments totaled $3.2 million and supported local market expansion, capacity upgrades and success based initiatives. Telecom Sector investments of $2.4 million supported core network services and broadband growth and expansion.
“We broke ground on our Greater Minnesota Broadband Collaborative Project in the third quarter which will further expand our fiber footprint from St. Paul and Minneapolis to Duluth, Minnesota,” said Finke. “The majority of this fiber route will be completed in 2011 and we’ll begin the northwestern Minnesota route in 2012. We continue to invest in long-term growth initiatives while maintaining strong cash flows and a solid balance sheet.”
Business Sector (before inter-segment eliminations)
Third quarter Business Sector revenue totaled $28 million, up 10 percent year-over-year, driven by steady growth in equipment sales. Costs and expenses totaled $24.8 million, an increase of 12 percent year over year, the result of increased equipment sales and sales and operations expense. Net income totaled $1.9 million, down 7 percent from one year ago.
·
|
Fiber and data revenue totaled $11.6 million, down 14 percent year-over-year and relatively flat from the previous quarter. A unique fiber construction project in 2010 added $3.3 million of revenue and $1.9 million in pretax income to the fiber and data product line in the third quarter 2010. Excluding the 2010 fiber construction project, fiber and data organic revenue grew 14 percent.
|
·
|
Equipment product revenue totaled $16.4 million, an increase of 35 percent year-over-year. Equipment sales increased 43 percent from the third quarter of 2010 and support services revenue was relatively flat year-over-year.

Telecom Sector (before inter-segment eliminations)
Telecom Sector revenue totaled $17.9 million, down 4 percent year-over-year. Telecom Sector results were stable and reflect growth in broadband services offset by the impact of declines in legacy network access and local services. Costs and expenses totaled $14.9 million, a 5 percent decrease year-over-year. Telecom Sector net income totaled $1.8 million, down 2 percent from the comparable period in 2010.
·

Broadband revenue totaled $5.1 million, up 5 percent year-over-year. Broadband revenue includes DSL, Internet, Data and Digital TV services.
|
·

Debt Position
Long-term debt and total current maturities totaled $120.6 million as of Sept. 30, 2011, up slightly from the $119 million as of Dec. 31, 2010. Net debt, a measure of actual balance-sheet strength that subtracts the cash balance from total debt, totaled $109.3 million as of Sept. 30, 2011, a $9.6 million improvement from the $118.9 million net debt as of Dec. 31, 2010.
The company completed the refinance of its senior credit facility in August 2011 at very favorable terms and conditions. The new $150 million agreement includes $120 million in secured term loans and a $30 million revolving debt facility which is currently unutilized. The new agreement offers the company access to additional financing to deploy capital in pursuit of its strategic growth initiatives.
“We are very pleased with the terms and cost of this refinancing,” Finke said. “This refinancing demonstrates the confidence our lenders have in our business plan.” The term of the new facility runs through 2016. Borrowing under the new credit agreement bears interest at 3.0 percent plus LIBOR based on current leverage ratios of approximately 2.8 to one, with no LIBOR floor amount.
In the third quarter, HickoryTech announced a stock repurchase program in which the company intends to repurchase up to $3 million of HickoryTech’s common stock. Additionally during the same quarter, the company declared an increased quarterly dividend of $0.14 per share of HickoryTech common stock to be paid in the fourth quarter, representing a 4 percent increase from the previous dividend of $0.135. The company has declared shareholder dividends for more than 60 years and has increased its dividend twice in the past five quarters.
