Three-month period ended June 30, 2018
The Corporation's facilities produced 1,823,321 MWh of electricity or 100% of the LTA of 1,827,540 MWh. Overall, the hydroelectric facilities produced 101% of their LTA, the wind farms produced 96% of their LTA , the geothermal facilities produced 101% of their LTA and the Stardale solar farm produced 114% of its LTA .
The Corporation recorded revenues of $149.5 million, up 37%, and Adjusted EBITDA of $99.1 million, up 15%, mainly due to the contribution of the facilities acquired in 2017 and 2018 and to higher production at the Mesgi'g Ugju's'n, Upper Lillooet River and Boulder Creek facilities. The Adjusted EBITDA Margin decreased from 78.4% to 66.3% for the three-month period due mainly to a larger increase in expenses as opposed to the increase in revenues resulting from the integration of the HS Orka geothermal operations which generate a lower margin related to its higher maintenance, daily operations and power purchasing costs. The decrease in the Adjusted EBITDA Margin is also due to challenging post-commissioning activities at the Upper Lillooet River facility. The Adjusted EBITDA Proportionate reached $113.3 million, up 28%, mainly due to higher Adjusted EBITDA and a higher Innergex's share of Adjusted EBITDA of joint ventures and associates stemming from the addition of the facilities acquired in 2018.
For the three-month period ended June 30, 2018, the Corporation recorded net earnings of $16.8 million (basic and diluted net earnings of $0.09 per share) compared with net earnings of $13.9 million (basic and diluted net earnings of $0.12 per share) for the corresponding period in 2017. The $2.8 million increase in net earnings can be explained by the $13.3 million positive change in unrealized net gain (loss) on financial instruments, the $13.2 million increase in Adjusted EBITDA and the $1.2 million positive change in income taxes, partly offset by the $10.2 million increase in finance costs, the $9.8 million increase in depreciation and amortization, the $3.1 million negative change in the share of loss (earnings) of joint ventures and associates and the $1.8 million negative change in other net expenses (revenues).
Six-month period ended June 30, 2018
The Corporation's facilities produced 2,959,666 MWh of electricity or 98% of the LTA of 3,010,130 MWh. Overall, the hydroelectric facilities produced 99% of their LTA , the wind farms produced 97% of their LTA , the geothermal facilities produced 100% of their LTA and the Stardale solar farm produced 106% of its LTA.
The Corporation recorded revenues of $267.4 million, up 45%, and Adjusted EBITDA of $178.5 million, up 30%, mainly due to the contribution of the acquisitions of Alterra in 2018 and wind facilities in France in 2017 and higher production at the Mesgi'g Ugju's'n, Upper Lillooet River and Boulder Creek facilities. The increase is also due to revenue compensation received from a manufacturer for low-availability of equipment at a wind farm. The Adjusted EBITDA Margin decreased from 74.4% to 66.7% for the six-month period due mainly to the same factors as for the three-month period. The Adjusted EBITDA Proportionate reached $196.0 million, up 38%, mainly due to the addition of the facilities acquired in 2018.
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2018, the Corporation recorded net earnings of $2.2 million (basic and diluted net earnings of $0.03 per share) compared with net earnings of $11.4 million (basic and diluted net earnings of $0.13 per share) for the corresponding period in 2017. The $9.2 million decrease in net earnings can be explained by the $26.3 million increase in finance costs, the $19.4 million increase in depreciation and amortization, the $4.4 million negative change in other net expenses (revenues), the $3.9 million negative change in unrealized net (gain) loss on financial instruments and the $0.7 million negative change in the share of loss (earnings) of joint ventures and associates, partly offset by the $41.6 million increase in Adjusted EBITDA and the $3.9 million positive change in income taxes.
Free Cash Flow and Payout Ratio
For the trailing twelve-month period ended June 30, 2018, the Corporation generated Free Cash Flow of $91.5 million, compared with $75.9 million for the corresponding period last year. The increase in Free Cash Flow is due mainly to higher cash flows from operating activities before changes in non-cash operating working capital items, higher adjustments due to higher transaction costs related to realized acquisitions and partly offset by greater scheduled debt principal payments, higher Free Cash Flow attributed to non-controlling interests and higher maintenance capital expenditures net of proceeds from disposals.
For the trailing twelve-month ended June 30, 2018, the dividends on common shares declared by the Corporation amounted to 88% of Free Cash Flow, compared with 93% for the corresponding period last year. This positive change results mainly from the recent commissioning of the Mesgi'g Ugju's'n, Upper Lillooet River and Boulder Creek facilities which generated higher Free Cash Flow, partly offset by higher dividend payments as a result of the issuance of 24,327,225 shares on February 6, 2018, related to the Alterra acquisition, to the increase in the quarterly dividend and to additional shares following the exercise of stock options and issued under the Dividend Reinvestment Plan ("DRIP").
OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS
On April 16, 2018, Innergex renewed its Electricity Purchase Agreements ("EPAs") with BC Hydro for the Brown Lake and Walden North facilities. The renewed agreements are for 40-year term and are effective as of April 1, 2018. The agreements are subject to approval by the British Columbia Utilities Commission.
Innergex completed on May 15, 2018 the acquisition of of Ledcor Power Group Ltd.'s 33.3% interest in Creek Power INc., a company that indirectly owns the 7.5 MW Fitzsimmons Creek, 25.3 MW Boulder Creek and the 81.4 MW Upper Lillooet River hydro facilities located in British Columbia as well as a portfolio of prospective projects. Innergex already owned the other 67.7% interest in the company. Innergex also owned all the preferred equity and received all of the cash flows.
The Corporation announced in May 2018 a joint venture partnership with Energía Llaima to acquired a 50% stake in the Chilean company, owner of a major interest in one 12 MW hydro facility and in a 34 MW solar facility, which should generate projected Adjusted EBITDA of approximately US$6.5 million ($8.3 million) annually, two hydro facilities in development (125 MW) and other early development stage projects. Innergex invested an initial amount of US$10 million ($12.8 million) through available funds under its corporate revolving credit facilities and has agreed to invest and additional US$100 million ($140.5 million) over a 12-month period, commitment to be almost reached with the acquisition of the Duqueco hydro project. The partnership was completed on July 3, 2018.
Innergex announced during the second quarter of 2018 the acquisition with Energia Llaima of the 140 MW Duqueco hydro project, which includes two facilities, located in Chile. The aggregate average annual power generation is expected to reach over 350,000 MWh. Innergex is expecting the Duqueco project to generate an Adjusted EBITDA of approximately US$21 million ($26.8 million) annually. The acquisition was completed on July 5, 2018.
On August 2, 2018, the Corporation announced that it has signed a final agreement to acquire TransCanada's 62% interest in five wind farms in the Gaspé peninsula in Quebec known as Baie-des-Sables, Carleton, Gros-Morne, L'Anse-à-Valleau and Montagne Sèche (the "Cartier Wind Farms"), as well as its 50% interest in the operating entities of the Cartier Wind Farms (the "Cartier Operating Entities"), for total consideration of approximately $630 million (the "Transaction"). Innergex currently owns the remaining interests in both the Cartier Wind Farms and Cartier Operating Entities. Innergex expects the 62% acquired interest in the Cartier Wind Farms to generate revenues of approximately $82.9 million and projected Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $68.4 million annually. Innergex has obtained commitments from two leading Canadian banks to backstop its existing credit facilities and to provide two short-term credit facilities to cover the purchase price and transaction costs in its entirety. The Corporation intends to reimburse the second credit faclity through the strategic divestment of a minority interest in the Cartier Wind Farms and of other assets which could further benefit the Corporation.
In the second quarter of 2018, some milestone were met by the 352.8 MW Foard City wind project that signed a 12-year power purchase agreement for 300 MW for which sales will start upon the facility reaching commercial operation. Full notice to proceed with construction is expected to be issued in the fourth quarter of 2018 to achieve commercial operation in the third quarter of 2019. The Foard City project has executed all of the material project contracts, including a turbine supply agreement for 140 GE 2.52 MW wind turbines, a 20-year operation and maintenance agreement, a balance of plant agreement and an interconnection agreement. In addition, site control and other major development milestones, such as environmental impact assessments and local property tax abatements, are complete. Project financing discussions are under way. The Corporation expects projected Adjusted EBITDA to be over $10 million annually for the project which will also benefit from Production Tax Credits.
In July 2018, Innergex completed the acquisition of the 315 MWDC Phoebe solar photovoltaïc project. Concurrent with the closing of the acquisition on July 2, 2018, financial close for the project's debt and tax equity financing were achieved and full notice to proceed with construction was issued to the contractor which is designing and constructing the plant, including the supply of First Solar Series 6 thin film modules and other equipment, and perform operation and maintenance of the plant for a period of five years. Commercial operation is expected be reached in the third quarter of 2019. The Phoebe project will sell 100% of its output to the ERCOT power grid and receive a fixed price on 89% of its energy produced under a 12-year PPA.
Construction activities continued at the 10 MW Brúarvirkjun hydro project in Iceland. Construction work continues on site with installation of the site offices and camp accommodations. All the major contracts have been signed and the major civil contractor has commenced work on site. The project has received its Environmental Impact Assessment ("EIA") and obtained all necessary water rights, land contracts, exploration permits, development licence and municipal approvals through a specific local land-use plan. The project continues to face an appeal before the Appellate Committee for Environment and Resources to claim a voiding of the construction permit. A formal response was filed against the issues and grounds raised. Commissioning is expected to occur in the first half of 2020.

Forward-Looking Information in this press release is based on certain key expectations and assumptions made by the Corporation. The following table outlines Forward-Looking Information contained in this press release, the principal assumptions used to derive this information and the principal risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from this information.
Principal Assumptions |
Principal Risks and Uncertainties |
Expected production For each facility, the Corporation determines a long-term average annual level of electricity production ("LTA") over the expected life of the facility, based on engineers' studies that take into consideration a number of important factors: for hydroelectricity, the historically observed flows of the river, the operating head, the technology employed and the reserved aesthetic and ecological flows; for wind energy, the historical wind and meteorological conditions and turbine technology; for solar energy, the historical solar irradiation conditions, panel technology and expected solar panel degradation; and for geothermal power, the historical geothermal resources, natural depletion of geothermal resources over time, the technology used and the potential of energy loss to occur before delivery. Other factors taken into account include, without limitation, site topography, installed capacity, energy losses, operational features and maintenance. Although production will fluctuate from year to year, over an extended period it should approach the estimated long-term average. On a consolidated basis, the Corporation estimates the LTA by adding together the expected LTA of all the facilities in operation that it consolidates (excludes Dokie, East Toba, Flat Top, Jimmie Creek, Kokomo, Montrose Creek, Shannon, Spartan, Umbata Falls and Viger-Denonville, which are accounted for using the equity method). |
Improper assessment of water, wind, sun and geothermal resources and associated electricity production Variability in hydrology, wind regimes, solar irradiation and geothermal resources Natural depletion of geothermal resources Equipment failure or unexpected operations and maintenance activity Natural disaster |
Estimated project costs, expected obtainment of permits, start of construction, work conducted and start of commercial operation for Development Projects or Prospective Projects For each development project, the Corporation provides an estimate of project costs based on its extensive experience as a developer, directly related incremental internal costs, site acquisition costs and financing costs, which are eventually adjusted for the projected costs provided by the engineering, procurement and construction ("EPC") contractor retained for the project. The Corporation provides indications regarding scheduling and construction progress for its Development Projects and indications regarding its Prospective Projects, based on its extensive experience as a developer. |
Performance of counterparties, such as the EPC contractors Delays and cost overruns in the design and construction of projects Obtainment of permits Equipment supply Interest rate fluctuations and financing risk Relationships with stakeholders Regulatory and political risks Higher-than-expected inflation Natural disaster
|
Projected revenues For each facility, expected annual revenues are estimated by multiplying the LTA by a price for electricity stipulated in the PPA secured with a public utility or other creditworthy counterparty mainly. These PPAs stipulate a base price and, in some cases, a price adjustment depending on the month, day and hour of delivery, except for the Miller Creek hydroelectric facility, which receives a price based on a formula using the Platts Mid-C pricing indices, the Horseshoe Bend hydroelectric facility, for which 85% of the price is fixed and 15% is adjusted annually as determined by the Idaho Public Utility Commission. Revenues at the HS Orka facilities also fluctuates with the price of aluminum, as certain of those PPAs are linked to such price. In most cases, power purchase agreements also contain an annual inflation adjustment based on a portion of the Consumer Price Index. On a consolidated basis, the Corporation estimates annual revenues by adding together the projected revenues of all the facilities in operation that it consolidates (excludes Dokie, East Toba, Flat Top, Jimmie Creek, Kokomo, Montrose Creek, Shannon, Spartan, Umbata Falls, Viger-Denonville and Blue Lagoon spa, which are accounted for using the equity method). |
Production levels below the LTA caused mainly by the risks and uncertainties mentioned above Unexpected seasonal variability in the production and delivery of electricity Lower-than-expected inflation rate Changes in the purchase price of electricity upon renewal of a PPA
|
Projected Adjusted EBITDA For each facility, the Corporation estimates annual operating earnings by subtracting from the estimated revenues the budgeted annual operating costs, which consist primarily of operators' salaries, insurance premiums, operations and maintenance expenditures, property taxes, royalties and cost of power (if applicable); these are predictable and relatively fixed, varying mainly with inflation (except for maintenance expenditures and cost of power). On a consolidated basis, the Company estimates annual Adjusted EBITDA by adding together the projected operating earnings of all the facilities in operation that it consolidates (excludes Dokie, East Toba, Flat Top, Jimmie Creek, Kokomo, Montrose Creek, Shannon, Spartan, Umbata Falls, Viger-Denonville and Blue Lagoon, which are accounted for using the equity method), from which it subtracts budgeted general and administrative expenses, comprised essentially of salaries and office expenses, and budgeted prospective project expenses, which are determined based on the number of prospective projects the Corporation chooses to develop and the resources required to do so. |
Lower revenues caused mainly by the risks and uncertainties mentioned above Variability of facility performance and related penalties Unexpected maintenance expenditures
|
Expected closing of the acquisition and of the Financing to be made by TD Securities Inc. and BMO Capital Markets The Corporation reasonably expects that the closing conditions will be completed within the deadlines. |
Availability of the capital Regulatory and political risks Performance of the counterparties |
Although the Corporation believes that the expectations and assumptions on which Forward-Looking Information is based are reasonable, readers of this press release are cautioned not to rely unduly on this Forward-Looking Information since no assurance can be given that they will prove to be correct. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are made as of the date hereof and Innergex undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless so required by applicable securities laws.
