HOUSTON, Feb. 25, 2014 – Exterran Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: EXH) today reported EBITDA, as adjusted (as defined below), of $154.2 million for the fourth quarter 2013, as compared to $157.3 million for the third quarter 2013 and $140.3 million for the fourth quarter 2012.

Revenue was $739.0 million for the fourth quarter 2013, compared to $775.6 million for the third quarter 2013 and $837.1 million for the fourth quarter 2012.

Fabrication backlog was $679.9 million at December 31, 2013, compared to $619.4 million at September 30, 2013 and $1,065.7 million at December 31, 2012. Fabrication bookings were $402.9 million for the fourth quarter 2013, compared to $276.2 million for the third quarter 2013 and $284.0 million for the fourth quarter 2012.

EBITDA, as adjusted, was $633.6 million for 2013, compared to $460.7 million for 2012. Revenue was $3,160.4 million for 2013, compared to $2,794.2 million for 2012.

“In the fourth quarter, we had a solid operating performance as we grew operating horsepower in both of our North America and International contract operations businesses, increased bookings in our fabrication business, particularly in our Belleli Energy operations, and achieved a record quarterly level of gross margin in our aftermarket service business,” said Brad Childers, Exterran Holdings’ President and Chief Executive Officer. “During 2013, we made significant progress in the implementation of performance improvement initiatives, as we recorded the highest level of EBITDA, as adjusted, and earnings per share from continuing operations attributable to Exterran stockholders in over four years.”

“Looking ahead, we remain optimistic about growth opportunities associated with the development of energy infrastructure in the United States and International markets. I believe we are on track to make further progress in improving the company’s performance in 2014, though similar to the last two years, first quarter revenues are expected to decline somewhat from fourth quarter levels,” added Childers.

“Debt balances at the Exterran parent level (excluding Exterran Partners) declined by $100 million from September 30, 2013 to December 31, 2013. Exterran Holdings’ debt to adjusted EBITDA level under our credit agreement declined from 1.8x at September 30, 2013 to 1.6x at December 31, 2013,” said Bill Austin, Exterran Holdings’ Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “With our improved capital position, better operating performance and recurring cash flow from our limited partner and general partner interests in Exterran Partners, today we announced plans to return cash to our stockholders through the initiation of a dividend program at Exterran Holdings.

Net income from continuing operations attributable to Exterran stockholders, excluding items, for the fourth quarter 2013 was $12.0 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, excluding a $9.0 million valuation allowance recorded against the deferred tax asset in Italy and non-cash pretax long-lived asset impairment charges of $3.9 million related to our North America contract operations business. The valuation allowance did not impact our cash flows, liquidity position, or compliance with debt covenants. Our contract water treatment business, which we have abandoned, is reflected as discontinued operations in our current and prior period financial results.

Net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Exterran stockholders, excluding items, for all periods excludes the benefit of proceeds from the two previously announced sales of Exterran Holdings’ previously-nationalized Venezuelan assets.

Net income from continuing operations attributable to Exterran stockholders, excluding items, for the third quarter 2013 was $23.7 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, and net income from continuing operations attributable to Exterran stockholders, excluding items, for the fourth quarter 2012 was $7.7 million, or $0.13 per diluted share.

Net income attributable to Exterran stockholders for the fourth quarter 2013 was $22.6 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, compared to net income attributable to Exterran stockholders for the third quarter 2013 of $41.0 million, or $0.62 per diluted share, and a net loss attributable to Exterran stockholders for the fourth quarter 2012 of $5.7 million, or $0.07 per diluted share.

Net income from continuing operations attributable to Exterran stockholders, excluding items, for 2013 was $69.5 million, or $1.05 per diluted share, excluding pretax items totaling $28.6 million, comprised primarily of non-cash long-lived asset impairment charges of $16.7 million related primarily to our U.S. fleet and $11.9 million related to our fabrication business in the United Kingdom that we sold in July 2013 and a $9.0 million valuation allowance recorded against the deferred tax asset in Italy. Net loss from continuing operations attributable to Exterran stockholders, excluding items, for 2012 was $49.7 million, or $0.78 per diluted share.

The cash distribution received by Exterran Holdings based upon its limited partner and general partner interests in Exterran Partners, L.P. was $13.0 million for the fourth quarter 2013, compared to $12.6 million for the third quarter 2013 and $8.1 million for the fourth quarter 2012.

(1) Management believes EBITDA, as adjusted, and gross margin, provide useful information to investors because these non-GAAP measures, when viewed with our GAAP results and accompanying reconciliations, provide a more complete understanding of our performance than GAAP results alone.  Management uses these non-GAAP measures as supplemental measures to review current period operating performance, comparability measures and performance measures for period to period comparisons. In addition, management uses EBITDA, as adjusted, as a valuation measure.
