July 27, 2016

MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jul. 27, 2016-- World Fuel Services Corporation (NYSE: INT) today reported second quarter net income of $30.0 million or $0.43 diluted earnings per share compared to $30.5 million or $0.43 diluted earnings per share in the second quarter of 2015. Excluding the impact of certain non-recurring expenses, adjusted second quarter net income was $34.8 million or $0.50 adjusted diluted earnings per share. Non-GAAP net income and diluted earnings per share for the second quarter, excluding share-based compensation and amortization of acquired intangible assets were $44.0 million and $0.63, respectively, compared to $38.5 million and $0.54 in 2015.

“During the quarter, our aviation segment posted strong results in their core resale operations and our land segment generated solid growth in retail and wholesale distribution,” stated Michael J. Kasbar, chairman and chief executive officer of World Fuel Services Corporation. “The recent acquisitions of PAPCO on the east coast and Associated Petroleum Products on the west coast have significantly expanded our U.S. commercial and industrial distribution platform. We are poised to execute on numerous development opportunities as our organic initiatives and strategic investments should emerge as meaningful growth drivers in 2017.”

The company’s aviation segment generated gross profit of $98.6 million, an increase of $13.6 million or 16% year-over-year. The company’s land segment posted gross profit of $80.2 million, an increase of $16.6 million or 26% year-over-year. The company’s marine segment generated gross profit of $39.7 million, a decrease of $2.1 million or 5% year-over-year.

“Consistent cash flow generation and prudent balance sheet management has enabled us to aggregate $1.2 billion of operating cash flow over the past four years,” said Ira M. Birns, executive vice president and chief financial officer. “The two strategic acquisitions we completed to start the third quarter and the ExxonMobil transaction expected to be fully completed by early next year, will be almost entirely funded with cash flow generated over the past twelve months, preserving our strong and liquid balance sheet.”

Correction of Previously Issued Financial Statements

During the second quarter of 2016, we identified a correction to our provision for income taxes for certain prior periods, due to the accounting for the tax effects of foreign currency translation changes on intercompany loans that are considered to be of a long-term investment nature. The Company determined that it had incorrectly recorded a deferred tax asset related to foreign currency translation losses in the provision for income taxes, resulting in the Company reporting a lower provision for income taxes in the affected periods.

Management evaluated the materiality of the error from qualitative and quantitative perspectives, and concluded the error was not material to its previously issued annual and interim financial statements. The cumulative amounts of the corrections were approximately $20.0 million, of which approximately $12.5 million was attributable to the year ended December 31, 2015. The cumulative amount of the prior period adjustments would have been material to our current Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income had we made the correction in the current period and, accordingly we will revise our previously issued financial statements prospectively to correct these errors. Please refer to Item 8.01 of the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K and the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for further information and details on the affected periods.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The non-GAAP financial measures exclude costs associated with share-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, expenses related to acquisitions and other related charges, deferred revenue purchase accounting adjustments, and termination of employment agreement primarily because we do not believe they are reflective of the Company’s core operating results. We believe the exclusion of share-based compensation from operating expenses is useful given the variation in expense that can result from changes in the fair value of our common stock, the effect of which is unrelated to the operational conditions that give rise to variations in the components of our operating costs. Also, we believe the exclusion of the amortization of acquired intangible assets, the expenses related to acquisitions and other related charges, and termination of employment agreement expenses are useful for purposes of evaluating operating performance of our core operating results and comparing them period over period. In accordance with the fair value provisions applicable to the accounting for business combinations, acquired deferred revenue is often recorded on the opening balance sheet at an amount that is lower than the historical carrying value. Although this acquisition accounting requirement has no impact on our business or cash flows, it adversely impacts our reported GAAP revenue in the reporting periods following an acquisition. We believe that the exclusion of the deferred revenue purchase accounting adjustment is useful to investors as an additional means to reflect trends of our business and provides investors with financial information that facilitates comparison of both historical and future results. We believe that these non-GAAP financial 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 non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per common share 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 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 RSUs 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.
