EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are commonly used non-GAAP financial measures utilized by management as a supplemental tool to evaluate the underlying operating performance of the Company on an ongoing basis and should be considered together with Heritage Global’s GAAP financial measures. Definitions and disclosures regarding non-GAAP financial information including reconciliations are included at the end of the press release.

Heritage Global Chief Executive Officer Ross Dove commented, “As expected, we have seen strong momentum in both our Industrial Assets Division and Financial Assets Division as we move through 2022, evidenced by enhanced profitability and significant growth in net operating income in the second quarter. Specifically, our results reflect a return to pre-pandemic volume levels in our financial asset business, as increased credit card spending by consumers has begun to translate into higher volumes of charged off consumer loans coming to market. On the industrial asset side of our business, we continue to see opportunities related to the sustainable disposal of surplus assets and equipment and we expect this activity to increase as corporations heighten their focus on promoting a circular economy related to the retirement of equipment and machinery.

“We remain bullish about the opportunities we’re seeing to drive growth from our diverse revenue streams as we move through the balance of 2022. We expect to continue to achieve strong results given the underlying strength of our diversified business model and the favorable tailwinds we’re experiencing in the markets in which we operate. It’s important to note that we view the heightened volume in our financial assets division as a return to ‘business as usual’ and expect these more normalized volume levels to endure for the foreseeable future, with a steady stream of non-performing loans expected to continue to come to market in the current economic environment.

“On the industrial asset side of the business, the environmentally sound disposition of machinery and equipment is a growing priority for our manufacturing and industrial clients and we remain a go-to resource as these clients identify assets to be brought to auction for repurposing and reuse. As we previously announced, our second quarter performance was favorably impacted by the sale of the two remaining Huntsville real estate assets. Real estate has proven to be a valuable high margin revenue generator for the Company and we’ll continue to pursue partnerships and opportunities that have the potential to contribute meaningfully to our growth and profitability.”

Second Quarter 2022 Highlights:

  • The Company achieved operating income of $3.6 million for the second quarter of 2022, as compared to operating income of $73 thousand in the second quarter of 2021. The significant growth in net operating income is attributed to strong performance in both divisions, including $2.6 million of operating income from the final disposition of the Huntsville real estate assets associated with the Company’s joint venture partnership.
  • Net income totaled $2.6 million, or $0.07 diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2022, as compared to net income of $587 thousand, $0.02 diluted earnings per share in the second quarter of 2021.
  • EBITDA totaled $3.8 million in the second quarter of 2022 versus EBITDA of $171 thousand in the second quarter of 2021 and Adjusted EBITDA (excluding non-cash stock-based compensation) was $3.9 million compared to $239 thousand in the prior-year quarter.
  • Heritage Global maintains a strong balance sheet, with stockholders’ equity of $36.0 million as of June 30, 2022, compared to $32.6 million as of December 31, 2021, and net working capital of $10.5 million.

Looking Forward

Mr. Dove commented, “We’re very pleased with our strong first half 2022 results. Given our performance to date and the market opportunities we’re seeing, we reiterate our previously stated target of full year 2022 net operating income exceeding our best prior annual results of $6.1 million, which was achieved in 2020. We remain intent on leveraging our operational strengths with the favorable market conditions we’re experiencing to drive continued profitability.”

Definitions and Disclosures Regarding non-GAAP Financial Information

The Company defines EBITDA as net income/loss plus depreciation and amortization, interest and other expense, and provision for income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA reflects EBITDA adjusted further to eliminate the effects of stock-based compensation. Management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in assessing the Company’s results, evaluating the Company’s performance and in reaching operating and strategic decisions. Management believes that the presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, when considered together with our GAAP financial statements and the reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, is useful in providing investors a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the underlying performance of the Company on a historical and ongoing basis. The Company’s use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is not meant to be, and should not be, considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, any GAAP financial measure. You should carefully evaluate the financial information, below, which reconciles our GAAP reported net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented (in thousands).
