Maxar Technologies Reports Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2020 Results

Changes in revenues from year to year are influenced by the size, timing and number of satellite contracts awarded in the current and preceding years and the length of the construction period for satellite contracts awarded. Revenues on satellite contracts are recognized using the cost-to-cost method of accounting to determine the percentage of completion over the construction period, which typically ranges between 20 to 36 months and up to 48 months in certain situations. Adjusted EBITDA margins can vary from quarter to quarter due to the mix of our revenues and changes in our estimated costs to complete as our risks are retired and as our estimated costs to complete are increased or decreased based on contract performance.

Revenues from the Space Infrastructure segment increased to $224 million from $153 million, or by $71 million, for the three months ended December 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019. Revenues increased primarily as a result of the impact of increased volumes on commercial programs of $47 million during the three months ended December 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019. The increase was also driven by an increase in volume related to U.S. government contracts of $24 million, compared to the same period in 2019.

Revenues increased to $721 million from $706 million, or by $15 million, for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019. Revenues increased primarily as a result of an increase in volume related to U.S. government contracts of $137 million during the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019. This increase in revenue was partially offset by the impact of reduced volumes on commercial programs of $122 million including a $9 million impact due to increases in estimated costs and an associated change in the EAC profit margin of a commercial satellite program due to the identification of a design anomaly in the final stage of a testing process. Revenues were also negatively impacted by $27 million of estimated COVID-19 related EAC growth during the period and are included in the above-mentioned results. The increases in the EACs are due to increases in estimated program costs associated with the COVID-19 operating posture and the estimated impact of certain items such as supplier delays and increased labor hours. These costs are considered incremental and separable from normal operations.

Adjusted EBITDA for the Space Infrastructure segment increased to $13 million of income from a loss of $19 million, or by $32 million, for the three months ended December 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019. The increase in the Space Infrastructure segment is primarily related to higher margins on commercial programs of $36 million driven by a change in program mix related to the completion of less profitable programs offset by new, more profitable programs. The increase was partially offset by an increase in labor of $4 million and a $2 million increase in stock compensation.

Adjusted EBITDA changed to a loss of $3 million from a loss of $17 million, or by $14 million, for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019. The increase in the Space Infrastructure segment is primarily related to higher margins and favorable EACs outside of the estimated COVID-19 impacts discussed below, on commercial programs of $68 million. This has been driven by a change in program mix related to the completion of less profitable programs offset by new, more profitable programs along with $8 million less of program losses on a developmental program for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019. The increase in commercial programs are partially offset by an estimated $27 million negative impact related to our COVID-19 operating posture. The increase is also partially offset by a $16 million increase in costs due to a change in the compensation structure from retention payments to bonuses which were not included in segment Adjusted EBITDA in 2019, a $9 million negative impact on the above-mentioned commercial satellite program with a design anomaly and a recovery of a previously reserved amount of $7 million in 2019 which did not reoccur in 2020. The remainder of the change was related to a decrease in cost of product and services and selling, general, and administrative expenses.

Corporate and other expenses

Corporate and other expenses include items such as corporate office costs, regulatory costs, executive and director compensation, foreign exchange gains and losses, retention costs, and fees for legal and consulting services.

Corporate and other expenses decreased to $18 million from $26 million, or by $8 million, for the three months ended December 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019. The decrease was primarily driven by a $6 million decrease in retention costs related to a 2019 program within the Space Infrastructure segment and a decrease in selling, general and administrative costs of $2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019.

Corporate and other expenses decreased to $61 million from $86 million, or by $25 million, for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019. The decrease was primarily driven by a $24 million decrease in retention costs related to a 2019 program within the Space Infrastructure segment. The decrease was also driven by a $5 million foreign exchange gain for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to a $2 million foreign exchange loss for the year ended December 31, 2019. These decreases were partially offset by a $13 million increase in stock-based compensation expense primarily driven by a higher stock price.

Intersegment eliminations

Intersegment eliminations are related to projects between our segments, including WorldView Legion. Intersegment eliminations have decreased to $6 million from $9 million, or by $3 million, for the three months ended December 31, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019, primarily related to a decrease in intersegment satellite construction activity.

Intersegment eliminations have decreased to $27 million from $29 million, or by $2 million, for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019, primarily related to a decrease in intersegment satellite construction activity
