Gogo Announces Third Quarter 2017 Financial Results

 

    Quarterly revenue of $173 million, up 17% from prior year
    Alaska Airlines and LATAM Airlines select 2Ku for satellite in-flight connectivity
    2Ku awards now exceed 1,900 across 14 airlines
    2Ku installed on 416 aircraft as of October 31st, including 322 in 2017
    Business Aviation launches Gogo AVANCE platform and introduces new global satellite service

CHICAGO, November 2, 2017 – Gogo (NASDAQ: GOGO), the leading global provider of broadband connectivity products and services for aviation, today announced its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2017.

Third Quarter 2017 Consolidated Financial Results

 

    Revenue increased to $172.9 million, up 17% from Q3 2016. Service revenue increased to $153.3 million, up 19% from Q3 2016, due to a 10% increase in commercial aircraft online to 3,169, a 15% increase in ATG business aircraft online to 4,567, and increased customer usage across all segments.
    Net loss increased to $45.3 million, a 36% increase from Q3 2016, and Adjusted EBITDA(1) decreased to $13.0 million, down 15% from Q3 2016. Excluding $4.5 million in charges related to write-downs of legacy product lines and the retirement of Gogo test aircraft, net loss increased to $40.8 million and Adjusted EBITDA increased to $17.5 million.
    Capital expenditures increased to $68.5 million from $43.7 million in Q3 2016. Cash CapEx(1) increased to $53.1 million from $35.6 million in Q3 2016 due to the planned increase in success-based airborne equipment purchases during this period of heavy 2Ku installations.
    Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were $410.9 million as of September 30, 2017. Gogo issued an additional $100.0 million of senior secured notes at 113% of par value on September 25, 2017 raising $110.0 million in net proceeds.

“With 2Ku installations accelerating, high bandwidth is arriving in North America and globally,” said Michael Small, Gogo’s President and CEO. “More bandwidth enables us to improve customer experience, engage more users, and offer new products and services.”

“North American satellite aircraft generated a robust $220,000 in annualized ARPA in our commercial aviation business with take rates increasing across our fleet,” said Barry Rowan, Gogo’s Executive Vice President and CFO. “We expect Adjusted EBITDA to increase substantially in Q4 2017 and in 2018 as we execute on our plan.”

Third Quarter 2017 Business Segment Financial Results

Commercial Aviation - North America (CA-NA)

CA-NA aircraft online increased to more than 2,800 aircraft in the quarter, of which approximately 9% utilize the satellite network. CA-NA Satellite ARPA grew to more than $220,000 on an annualized basis and CA-NA ATG ARPA was approximately $125,000 on an annualized basis. High bandwidth is rapidly arriving in North America with satellite equipment installations accelerating and our next generation ATG network on track for 2018 commercial availability.


    Aircraft online reached 2,817, up 188 aircraft from September 30, 2016. As of September 30, 2017, CA-NA had approximately 900 awarded but not yet installed 2Ku aircraft of which 100 are net new aircraft.
    Take rate reached 7.5%, up from 6.5% in Q3 2016 driven by an increase in passenger engagement from airline and third party paid offerings.
    Total revenue increased to $95.7 million, up 6% from Q3 2016, driven primarily by more aircraft online.
    Segment profit increased to $16.0 million, up 10% from Q3 2016, representing a 17% segment profit margin. Excluding $2.4 million in charges related to the write-down of a legacy product line and the retirement of Gogo test aircraft, segment profit margin would have been approximately 19% in Q3 2017.

Commercial Aviation - Rest of World (CA-ROW)

CA-ROW revenue doubled year-over-year for the third quarter in a row and ARPA grew 30% to approximately $226,000 on an annualized basis as passenger demand continued to grow, with take rate reaching 13.5% in Q3 2017. Sequentially, CA-ROW ARPA remained flat as growth in ARPA on existing aircraft was offset by lower ARPA on newly installed fleets.

 

    Aircraft online reached 352, up 96 aircraft from September 30, 2016. CA-ROW currently has approximately 680 net new 2Ku awarded but not yet installed aircraft including the 100 aircraft recently awarded by LATAM Airlines.
    Total revenue increased to $16.6 million, up 119% from Q3 2016, driven primarily by higher ARPA and an increase in aircraft online.
    Segment loss increased to $24.1 million from $19.9 million in Q3 2016, but improved by more than $7.0 million from Q2 2017. The sequential improvement was driven by lower spend on OEM programs in the quarter and increased utilization of satellite network capacity.

Business Aviation (BA)

BA service revenue grew 30% year-over-year to $43.2 million with demand continuing to build for ATG systems across customer segments. In the quarter, BA ATG aircraft online increased to 4,567, up 15% year-over-year with ATG average monthly ARPA rising 13% to $2,874. As of September 30, 2017, BA had more than 10,000 narrowband satellite and ATG systems online.

 

    Equipment revenue increased to $17.3 million, up 11% from Q3 2016.
    Total segment revenue increased to $60.5 million, up 24% from Q3 2016.
    Segment profit increased to $21.3 million, up 3% from Q3 2016, representing a 35% segment profit margin. Excluding a $2.1 million charge related to the write-down of a legacy product line, segment profit margin would have been approximately 39% in Q3 2017, down from 42% in Q3 2016. Segment profit was also impacted by increased support from engineering, design and development as well as sales and marketing for new market and technology launches.

Recent Developments

 

    Alaska Airlines selected 2Ku for in-flight connectivity on more than 200 of its existing Boeing and Airbus aircraft and 50 additional aircraft which include replacement of a competitor’s systems. Installations will begin in the first half of 2018 and be completed by early 2020.
    LATAM Airlines Brazil selected 2Ku for in-flight connectivity on 100 of its A320 aircraft. The inflight connectivity service will begin in the first half of 2018 with full roll-out expected to be completed in the first half of 2019.
    Gogo conducted the first successful test flight on its Next Generation ATG network and began nationwide network rollout. Our Next Generation ATG network is on track for 2018 commercial availability.
    Gogo announced Gogo Vision Touch, its new product line to be initially launched on Delta Air Lines. Gogo Vision Touch delivers in-flight entertainment wirelessly to a seat back screen, enabling a low cost, light weight solution and disrupting the legacy in-flight entertainment market.
    Gogo Business Aviation’s AVANCE L5 system, formerly Gogo Biz 4G, was selected by Dassault Aviation and Embraer as a factory option on a number of their new production aircraft. Gogo AVANCE seamlessly integrates connectivity and entertainment offerings, smart cabin control, and connected aircraft applications into one highly configurable technology platform.
    Gogo Business Aviation announced a global high throughput satellite solution for business aircraft. The service is expected to be available in the second half of 2018.


Business Outlook

For the full year ending December 31, 2017, the Company expects:

 

    2Ku installations of 450 to 550
    Total revenue at the high end of the $670 million to $695 million guidance range
    Adjusted EBITDA at the low end of the $60 million to $75 million guidance range, excluding $4.5 million in charges incurred in Q3 2017
    Gross capital expenditures of $290 million to $330 million. Cash CapEx at the low end of the $230 million to $260 million guidance range, of which approximately 70% is related to success-based airborne equipment purchases.

Gogo reaffirms all long-term guidance previously provided in the fourth quarter 2016 earnings press release.

Conference Call

The third quarter conference call will be held on November 2nd, 2017 at 8:30 a.m. ET. A live webcast of the conference call, as well as a replay, will be available online on the Investor Relations section of the company’s website at http://ir.gogoair.com. Participants can also access the call by dialing (844) 464-3940 (within the United States and Canada) or (765) 507-2646 (international dialers) and entering conference ID number 99717327.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We report certain non-GAAP financial measurements, including Adjusted EBITDA and Cash CapEx in the supplemental tables below. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA and Cash CapEx for business planning purposes, including managing our business against internally projected results of operations and measuring our performance and liquidity. These supplemental performance measures also provide another basis for comparing period to period results by excluding potential differences caused by non-operational and unusual or non-recurring items. These supplemental performance measurements may vary from and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA and Cash CapEx are not recognized measurements under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, and when analyzing our performance with Adjusted EBITDA or liquidity with Cash CapEx, as applicable, investors should (i) evaluate each adjustment in our reconciliation to net loss attributable to common stock, and the explanatory footnotes regarding those adjustments, (ii) use Adjusted EBITDA in addition to, and not as an alternative to, net loss attributable to common stock as a measure of operating results, and (iii) use Cash CapEx in addition to, and not as an alternative to, consolidated capital expenditures when evaluating our liquidity. No reconciliation of the forecasted range for Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2017 is included in this release because we are unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the corresponding GAAP measure without unreasonable efforts and we believe such reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors. In particular, we are not able to provide a reconciliation for the forecasted range of Adjusted EBITDA due to variability in the timing of aircraft installations and deinstallations impacting depreciation expense and amortization of deferred airborne leasing proceeds.

Certain disclosures in this press release and related comments by our management include forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements regarding our business outlook, industry, business strategy, plans, goals and expectations concerning our market position, international expansion, future technologies, future operations, margins, profitability, future efficiencies, capital expenditures, liquidity and capital resources and other financial and operating information.

Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give you no assurance these expectations will prove to have been correct. Some of these expectations may be based upon assumptions, data or judgments that prove to be incorrect. Actual events, results and outcomes may differ materially from our expectations due to a variety of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors. Although it is not possible to identify all of these risks and factors, they include, among others, the following: the loss of, or failure to realize benefits from, agreements with our airline partners or any failure to renew any existing agreements upon expiration or termination;

our ability to successfully develop and monetize new products and services such as Gogo Vision and Gogo TV, including those that were recently released, are currently being offered on a limited or trial basis, or are in various stages of development; our ability to certify and install our equipment and deliver our products and services, including newly developed products and services, on schedules consistent with our contractual commitments to customers; the failure of our equipment or material defects or errors in our software resulting in recalls or substantial warranty claims; a revocation of, or reduction in, our right to use licensed spectrum, the availability of other air-to-ground spectrum to a competitor or the repurposing by a competitor of other spectrum for air-to-ground use; our use of open source software and licenses; the effects of service interruptions or delays, technology failures and equipment failures or malfunctions arising from defects or errors in our software or defects in or damage to our equipment; the limited operating history of our CA-ROW segment; contract changes and implementation issues resulting from decisions by airlines to transition from the retail model to the airline directed model; increases in our projected capital expenditures due to, among other things, unexpected costs incurred in connection with the roll-out of our technology roadmap or our international expansion; compliance with U.S. and foreign government regulations and standards, including those related to regulation of the Internet, including e-commerce or online video distribution changes, and the installation and operation of satellite equipment and our ability to obtain and maintain all necessary regulatory approvals to install and operate our equipment in the United States and foreign jurisdictions; our, or our technology suppliers’, inability to effectively innovate; costs associated with defending pending or future intellectual property infringement and other litigation or claims; our ability to protect our intellectual property; breaches of the security of our information technology network, resulting in unauthorized access to our customers’ credit card information or other personal information; any negative outcome or effects of future litigation; our substantial indebtedness; limitations and restrictions in the agreements governing our indebtedness and our ability to service our indebtedness; our ability to obtain additional financing on acceptable terms or at all; fluctuations in our operating results; our ability to attract and retain customers and to capitalize on revenue from our platform; the demand for and market acceptance of our products and services; changes or developments in the regulations that apply to us, our business and our industry, including changes or developments affecting the ability of passengers or airlines to use our in-flight connectivity services, including the recent U.S. and U.K. bans on the use of certain personal devices such as laptops and tablets on certain aircraft flying certain routes; a future act or threat of terrorism, cyber-security attack or other events that could result in adverse regulatory changes or developments as referenced above, or otherwise adversely affect our business and industry; our ability to attract and retain qualified employees, including key personnel; the effectiveness of our marketing and advertising and our ability to maintain and enhance our brands; our ability to manage our growth in a cost-effective manner and integrate and manage acquisitions; compliance with anti-corruption laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which we operate, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the (U.K.) Bribery Act 2010; restrictions on the ability of U.S. companies to do business in foreign countries, including, among others, restrictions imposed by the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control; difficulties in collecting accounts receivable; our ability to successfully implement our new enterprise resource planning system and other improvements to systems and procedures needed to support our growth.

Additional information concerning these and other factors can be found under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2017 and in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 as filed with the SEC on May 4, 2017.

    Aircraft online. We define aircraft online as the total number of commercial aircraft on which our equipment is installed and service has been made commercially available as of the last day of each period presented. We assign aircraft to CA-NA or CA-ROW at the time of contract signing as follows: (i) all aircraft operated by North American airlines and under contract for ATG or ATG-4 service are assigned to CA-NA, (ii) all aircraft operated by North American airlines and under a contract for satellite service are assigned to CA-NA or CA-ROW based on whether the routes flown by such aircraft under the contract are anticipated to be predominantly within or outside of North America at the time the contract is signed, and (iii) all aircraft operated by non-North American airlines and under a contract are assigned to CA-ROW.

 

    Aircraft equivalents. We define aircraft equivalents for a segment as the number of commercial aircraft online (as defined above) multiplied by the percentage of flights flown by such aircraft within the scope of that segment, rounded to the nearest whole aircraft and expressed as an average of the month end figures for each month in the period. This methodology takes into account the fact that during a particular period certain aircraft may fly routes outside the scope of the segment to which they are assigned for purposes of the calculation of aircraft online.

 

    Average monthly service revenue per aircraft equivalent (“ARPA”). We define ARPA as the aggregate service revenue plus monthly service fees, some of which are reported as a reduction to cost of service revenue for that segment for the period divided by the number of months in the period, and further divided by the number of aircraft equivalents (as defined above) for that segment during the period. Satellite ARPA is calculated based on satellite revenue and satellite aircraft equivalents, within that segment. ATG ARPA is calculated based on ATG revenue and ATG aircraft equivalents.

 

    Gross passenger opportunity (“GPO”). We define GPO as the aggregate number of passengers who board commercial aircraft on which Gogo service has been available at any time during the period presented. When actual passenger counts are available directly from our airline partners, we aggregate such counts across flights on Gogo-equipped aircraft. When not available directly from our airline partners, we estimate GPO. Estimated GPO is


  calculated by first estimating the number of flights occurring on each Gogo-equipped aircraft, then multiplying by the number of seats on that aircraft, and finally multiplying by a seat factor that is determined from historical information provided to us in arrears by our airline partners. The estimated number of flights is derived from real-time flight information provided to our front-end systems by Air Radio Inc. (ARINC), direct airline feeds and supplementary third-party data sources. These aircraft-level estimates are then aggregated with any available airline-provided passenger counts to obtain total GPO.

 

    Total average revenue per session (“ARPS”). We define ARPS as revenue from Passenger Connectivity, excluding non-session related revenue, divided by the total number of sessions during the period. A session, or a “use” of Passenger Connectivity, is defined as the use by a unique passenger of Passenger Connectivity on a flight segment. Multiple logins or purchases under the same user name during one flight segment count as only one session.

 

    Connectivity take rate. We define connectivity take rate as the number of sessions during the period expressed as a percentage of GPO. Included in our connectivity take-rate calculation are sessions for which we did not receive revenue, including those provided pursuant to free promotional campaigns and, to a lesser extent, as a result of complimentary passes distributed by our customer service representatives for unforeseen technical issues. For the periods listed above, the number of sessions for which we did not receive revenue was not material.

Definition of Non-GAAP Measures

EBITDA represents net income (loss) attributable to common stock before income taxes, interest income, interest expense, depreciation expense and amortization of other intangible assets.

Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA adjusted for (i) stock-based compensation expense, (ii) amortization of deferred airborne lease incentives (iii) loss on extinguishment of debt and (iv) adjustment of deferred financing costs. Our management believes that the use of Adjusted EBITDA eliminates items that, management believes, have less bearing on our operating performance, thereby highlighting trends in our core business which may not otherwise be apparent. It also provides an assessment of controllable expenses, which are indicators management uses to determine whether current spending decisions need to be adjusted in order to meet financial goals and achieve optimal financial performance.

We believe the exclusion of stock-based compensation expense from Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate given the significant variation in expense that can result from using the Black-Scholes model to determine the fair value of such compensation. The fair value of our stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes model and varies based on fluctuations in the assumptions used in this model, including inputs that are not necessarily directly related to the performance of our business, such as the expected volatility, the risk-free interest rate and the expected life of the options. Therefore, we believe the exclusion of this cost provides a clearer view of the operating performance of our business. Further, stock option grants made at a certain price and point in time do not necessarily reflect how our business is performing at any particular time. While we believe that investors should have information about any dilutive effect of outstanding options and the cost of that compensation, we also believe that stockholders should have the ability to consider our performance using a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes these costs and that management uses to evaluate our business.

We believe the exclusion of the amortization of deferred airborne lease incentives from Adjusted EBITDA is useful as it allows an investor to view operating performance across time periods in a manner consistent with how management measures segment profit and loss (see Note 14, “Business Segments and Major Customers,” for a description of segment profit (loss) in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements). Management evaluates segment profit and loss in this manner, excluding the amortization of deferred airborne lease incentives, because such presentation reflects operating decisions and activities from the current period, without regard to the prior period decision or the form of connectivity agreements. See “—Key Components of Consolidated Statements of Operations—Cost of Service Revenue—Commercial Aviation North America and Rest of World” in our 2016 10-K for a discussion of the accounting treatment of deferred airborne lease incentives.

We believe it is useful to an understanding of our operating performance to exclude the loss on extinguishment of debt and adjustment of deferred financing costs from Adjusted EBITDA because of the non-recurring nature of these charges.

We also present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure because we believe that this measure provides investors, securities analysts and other users of our financial statements with important supplemental information with which to evaluate our performance and to enable them to assess our performance on the same basis as management.

Cash CAPEX represents capital expenditures net of airborne equipment proceeds received from the airlines and incentives paid to us by landlords under certain facilities leases. We believe Cash CAPEX provides a more representative indication of our liquidity requirements with respect to capital expenditures, as under certain agreements with our airline partners we are reimbursed for all or a substantial portion of the cost of our airborne equipment, thereby reducing our cash capital requirements.

Safe harbor statement Safe Harbor Statement This presentation contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are based on management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to management. Most forward-looking statements contain words that identify them as forward-looking, such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “continues,” “could,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “potential,” “predicts,” “projects,” “should,” “will,” “would” or similar expressions and the negatives of those terms that relate to future events. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause Gogo’s actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any projected results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements represent the beliefs and assumptions of Gogo only as of the date of this presentation and Gogo undertakes no obligation to update or revise publicly any such forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. As such, Gogo’s future results may vary from any expectations or goals expressed in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements included in this presentation, possibly to a material degree. Gogo cannot assure you that the assumptions made in preparing any of the forward-looking statements will prove accurate or that any long-term financial or operational goals and targets will be realized. In particular, the availability and performance of certain technology solutions yet to be implemented by the Company set forth in this presentation represent aspirational long-term goals based on current expectations. For a discussion of some of the important factors that could cause Gogo’s results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements included in this presentation, investors should refer to the disclosures contained under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Note to Certain Operating and Financial Data In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), Gogo also discloses in this presentation certain non-GAAP financial information, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Cash CapEx. These financial measures are not recognized measures under GAAP, and when analyzing our performance or liquidity, as applicable, investors should (i) use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin in addition to, and not as an alternative to, net loss attributable to common stock as a measure of operating results, and (ii) use Cash CapEx in addition to, and not as an alternative to, consolidated capital expenditures when evaluating our liquidity. See the Appendix for a reconciliation of each of Adjusted EBITDA and Cash CapEx to the comparable GAAP measure. No reconciliation of the forecasted range for Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2017 is included in this release because we are unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the respective corresponding GAAP measure without unreasonable efforts and we believe such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors. In particular, we are not able to provide a reconciliation for the forecasted range of Adjusted EBITDA for 2017 due to variability in the timing of aircraft installations and de-installations impacting depreciation expense and amortization of deferred airborne leasing proceeds. In addition, this presentation contains various customer metrics and operating data, including numbers of aircraft or units online, that are based on internal company data, as well as information relating to the commercial and business aviation market, and our position within those markets. While management believes such information and data are reliable, they have not been verified by an independent source and there are inherent challenges and limitations involved in compiling data across various geographies and from various sources.
