Trecora Resources Provides Pro Forma Financial Results Including Acquisition of SSI Chusei/Trecora Chemical

SUGAR LAND, Texas, Dec. 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Trecora Resources (NYSE: TREC) a leading provider of high purity specialty chemicals and waxes, today provided unaudited condensed combined pro forma financial results for the first nine months of 2014, the full year 2013, and balance sheet as of September 30, 2014, reflecting the acquisition of SSI Chusei, Inc. ("SSI") which closed on October 1, 2014.  SSI was renamed Trecora Chemical, Inc. effective November 15, 2014.

The condensed combined pro forma results including standalone Trecora Resources and SSI Chusei historical results, and explanatory notes were included in a Form 8-K/A filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on December 10, 2014.

"We believe providing the pro forma results will enable investors to evaluate our ongoing performance more accurately," said Nick Carter, CEO and President of Trecora Resources.  "While the combined pro forma year-to-date results do not reflect meaningful earnings accretion due to increased amortization based upon the fair value of intangibles acquired in the acquisition; increased interest expense from the acquisition debt; and the deferral of approximately $1.2 million in unearned revenue that is expected to be recognized in the fourth quarter of 2014, adjusted combined EBITDA showed significant accretion."

"Since the closing of the acquisition, we have made significant progress in integrating the Trecora Chemical operations and identifying new market opportunities.  We remain excited about the potential for the specialty wax and custom processing businesses, and look forward to sharing our results going forward," concluded Mr. Carter.

Pro forma year-to-date 2014 results
Combined pro forma revenue for the first nine months of 2014 was $234.9 million, compared with historical Trecora Resources revenue of $215.6 million. Combined pro forma net income was $13.5 million, or $0.54 per diluted share, compared with historical Trecora Resources net income of $13.4 million, or $0.54 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA for historical Trecora Resources was $23.6 million; whereas, combined adjusted EBITDA was $27.3 million.

Significant pro forma adjustments for the first nine months of 2014 included a net increase of $0.9 million of depreciation and amortization expense on acquired other intangible assets and fixed assets and approximately $1.4 million of additional interest expense on debt incurred for the acquisition of SSI.

Pro forma full year 2013 results
Combined pro forma revenue for 2013 was $259.3 million, compared with historical Trecora Resources revenue of $236.2 million.  Combined pro forma net income was $20.2 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, compared with historical net income for Trecora Resources of $19.5 million, or $0.79 per diluted share.  Adjusted EBITDA for historical Trecora Resources was $23.8 million; whereas, combined adjusted EBITDA was $29.8 million.

Significant pro forma adjustments for 2013 included a net increase of $1.2 million of depreciation and amortization expense on acquired other intangible assets and fixed assets, $2.0 million of additional interest expense on debt incurred for the acquisition of SSI, and approximately $0.4 million for the incremental estimated tax effect using Trecora's combined federal and state statutory tax rate of 35.7%. 

Pro forma balance sheet
As of September 30, 2014, combined pro forma total assets were $232.1 million compared with historical Trecora Resources total assets of $157.9 million.  The increase includes goodwill of $21.3 million and other intangible assets of $26.6 million. 

Pro forma combined total liabilities were $114.2 million compared with historical total liabilities of $39.6 million for historical Trecora Resources. The increase is primarily the result of $70 million of long-term debt used to fund the acquisition of SSI.

As of September 30, 2014, pro forma combined cash and cash equivalents were $9.4 million compared with $13.9 million for historical Trecora Resources.  The decrease was primarily attributable to the $4.7 million cash used in the acquisition of SSI.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is provided for illustrative purposes only and does not purport to represent what the actual consolidated results of operations or the consolidated financial position of the combined company would have been had the acquisition occurred on the dates assumed, nor are they necessarily indicative of future consolidated results of operations or financial position.  The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect any integration activities or cost savings from operating efficiencies, synergies, asset dispositions or other restructurings that could result from the acquisition.  Since the pro forma financial statements have been prepared based upon estimates and assumptions, the final amounts may differ from the information presented.
