Asia Pacific Wire & Cable Corporation Ltd. Reports Second Quarter 2019 Financial Results

TAIPEI, Taiwan, Aug. 28, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Asia Pacific Wire & Cable Corporation Limited (NASDAQ: APWC) ("APWC" or the "Company"), a leading manufacturer of wire and cable products for the telecommunications and electric-power industries in the Asia-Pacific region, today announced the Company's financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Unless otherwise indicated, all data are reported in US Dollars at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of the event or result reported.

First Six Months 2019 Financial Results (Ended June 30, 2019)

	First 6 Months 2019		First 6 Months 2018		CHANGE
Revenues	$	160.6 million	$	217.3 million	(26.1)%
Gross Profit	$	9.2 million	$	19.2 million	(52.4)%
Operating (Loss) Profit	$	(3.5) million	$	6.8 million	(151.3)%
Net (Loss) Income	$	(1.7) million	$	1.8 million	(193.2)%
EPS⁽¹⁾	$	(0.12)	$	0.13	(192.3)%

⁽¹⁾The calculation of the earnings per share is based on 13,819,669 and 13,819,669 basic and diluted weighted average common shares issued and outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

First Six Months 2019 Results

Net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2019, were $160.6 million, a decrease of 26.1% from $217.3 million in the prior year. The decrease was primarily attributable to revenue decreases in the Company’s Thailand, North Asia and Rest of World (ROW) regions. Net revenue in the Company’s Thailand region decreased by 17.9%, primarily due to the postponement of the delivery of products per the request of major clients. Revenues in the Company's North Asia region decreased by 30.7%, primarily due to negative impact of the trade war between the United States and China. Revenues in the Company's Rest of World ("ROW") region decreased by 35.0%, primarily due to intense competition. The Company's North Asia region includes China and Hong Kong; the Thailand region contains the operations and sales inside Thailand; the ROW region includes Singapore, Australia and the other markets where APWC has operations or sales outside of the Thailand region and North Asia region.

Operating profit for the six months ended June 30, 2019 decreased by 151.3% to $(3.5) million from $6.8 million in the same period last year. Operating margin decreased by 169.2%, declining from 3.1% in 2018 to (2.2)% in 2019. In the Thailand region, operating margin declined from 6.4% to (2.1)%, which was attributable primarily to the postponement of delivery of high margin products . In the North Asia region, operating margin decreased from 3.2% to 2.0%, primarily due to a decrease in sales as a result of the trade war. The ROW region’s operating loss margin increase in 2019 to (3.6)% from (0.4)% in the same period in 2018 was primarily due to the erosion of the margin because of the competition.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first six months of 2019 were $13.1 million, compared to $12.8 million reported in the first six months of 2018. Net loss attributable to APWC shareholders was $(1.7) million for the first six months of 2019, compared to net income of $1.8 million in the same period in 2018. The decrease in net income was primarily due to a decrease in revenue. The weighted average number of shares issued and outstanding was 13.82 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

Financial Condition

APWC reported $49.1 million in cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2019, compared to $60.8 million as of December 31, 2018.

Current assets totaled $249.5 million as of June 30, 2019, compared to $254.1 million as of December 31, 2018. Working capital was $181.9 million as of June 30, 2019. Short term bank loans were $21.6 million at June 30, 2019, a decrease from $24.8 million at the end of 2018. The Company had no long-term debt outstanding at June 30, 2019. Shareholder's equity attributable to APWC was $152.0 million as of June 30, 2019, compared to $150.0 million as of December 31, 2018.

APWC reported $4.2 million in cash outflows from operations during the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to cash generated from operations of $18.9 million in the corresponding period in 2018. The decrease in cash outflows from operations in 2019 was primarily attributable to increase in inventory. The Company reported $2.3 million in cash outflows from investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $2.3 million in cash outflows in the same period of 2018. The cash used more for investing activities in the first six months of 2019 was attributable primarily to the purchases of property, plant and equipment in the Thailand region. APWC reported $7.1 million in cash outflows from financing activities during the first six months of 2019, compared to $8.0 million in cash outflows from financing activities in the same period of 2018. The decrease in cash outflows in the first six months of 2019 was primarily attributable to a decrease in the repayment of bank loans.
