World Fuel Services Corporation Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2019 Results
-- Generates Full Year Cash Flow from Operations of $229 million --
 
MIAMI—February 27, 2020 -- World Fuel Services Corporation (NYSE: INT)
Fourth-Quarter 2019 Highlights

Total gross profit of $286.6 million, up 9% year-over-year
GAAP net income of $56.5 million, or $0.86 per diluted share
Adjusted net income of $57.2 million, or $0.87 per diluted share
Adjusted EBITDA of $98.5 million, up 9% year-over-year

Full Year 2019 Highlights

Total gross profit of $1.1 billion, up 9% year-over-year
GAAP net income of $178.9 million, or $2.69 per diluted share
Adjusted net income of $185.6 million, or $2.79 per diluted share
Adjusted EBITDA of $409.2 million, up 14% year-over-year


“We are very pleased with our performance in 2019 as we continued to leverage the strength of our diversified business model,” stated Michael J. Kasbar, chairman and chief executive officer of World Fuel Services Corporation. “We will continue to aggressively focus on driving growth opportunities, increasing the value of our global platform and improving operating leverage across the enterprise.”

For the full year, the company's aviation segment generated gross profit of $551.6 million, an increase of 9% year-over-year, primarily driven by growth in government-related activity. Our marine segment generated gross profit of $181.5 million, an increase of 24% year-over-year, principally related to stronger performance in core resale operations. Our land segment generated gross profit of $378.9 million, an increase of 4% year-over-year, driven principally by growth in our government-related operations, MultiService payment solutions business and Kinect global energy services platform.

“We generated $229 million of cash flow from operations in 2019, enabling us to lower our total debt and increase available liquidity,” said Ira M. Birns, executive vice president and chief financial officer. “We believe our enhanced liquidity position will allow us to accelerate our investment in organic growth and strategic investment opportunities, while continuing to maintain a strong balance sheet.”







Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures (collectively, the “Non-GAAP Measures”), including adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). The Non-GAAP Measures exclude acquisition-related charges and restructuring costs primarily because we do not believe they are reflective of our core operating results. Beginning with the period ending September 30, 2019, as well as the 2018 comparative, the Non-GAAP Measures exclude gains or losses on the extinguishment of debt. In addition, beginning with the period ending December 31, 2019, the Non-GAAP Measures also excludes gain or losses on business dispositions. These changes were made to facilitate the evaluation of our current operating performance and comparisons to our past operating performance.
We believe that the Non-GAAP Measures, when considered in conjunction with our financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, are useful to investors to further aid in evaluating the ongoing financial performance of the Company and to provide greater transparency as supplemental information to our GAAP results.
Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our presentation of the Non-GAAP Measures may not be comparable to the presentation of such metrics by other companies. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing non-GAAP net income attributable to World Fuel Services and available to common shareholders by the sum of the weighted average number of shares of common stock, stock units, restricted stock entitled to dividends not subject to forfeiture and vested restricted stock units outstanding during the period and the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if our outstanding potentially dilutive securities had been issued. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these Non-GAAP Measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in this press release and on our website.
Information Relating to Forward-Looking Statements
This release includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements regarding our beliefs and expectations with respect to our ability to drive growth opportunities, increase the value of our global platform and drive greater operating leverage, as well as our expectations about our enhanced liquidity position allowing us to accelerate organic growth and strategic investment opportunities, while continuing to maintain a strong balance sheet. These forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by cautionary statements and risk factor disclosures contained in the Company’s Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings, including the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. Actual results may differ materially from any forward-looking statements due to risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to: our ability to effectively integrate acquired businesses and recognize the anticipated benefits, the loss of or reduced sales to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization in Afghanistan under our contract, our ability to successfully implement our growth strategy, risks related to the complexity of U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and any subsequently issued regulations and our ability to accurately predict the impact on our effective tax rate and future earnings, our ability to capitalize on new market opportunities and changes in supply and other market dynamics in the regions where we operate, adverse conditions in the markets or industries in which we or our customers and suppliers operate, the creditworthiness of our customers and counterparties and our ability to collect accounts receivable, our ability to effectively leverage technology and operating systems and realize the anticipated benefits, our ability to successfully execute and achieve efficiencies, our ability to achieve the expected level of benefit from our restructuring activities and cost reduction initiatives, unanticipated tax liabilities or adverse results of tax audits, assessments, or disputes, potential liabilities and the extent of any insurance coverage, the outcome of pending litigation and other proceedings, the impact of quarterly fluctuations in results, particularly as a result of seasonality, fluctuations in world oil prices or foreign currency, changes in political, economic, regulatory, or environmental conditions, supply disruptions, border closures and other logistical difficulties that can arise when sourcing and delivering fuel in areas that are actively engaged in war or other military conflicts, our failure to effectively hedge certain financial risks associated with the use of derivatives, non-performance by counterparties or customers on derivatives contracts, uninsured losses, the impact of climate change and natural disasters, adverse results in legal disputes, our ability to retain and attract senior management and other key employees and other risks detailed from time to time in our SEC filings. New risks emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors or to assess the impact of such risks on our business. Accordingly, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, changes in expectations, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.
