Company News- July 18, 2008: Grupo TMM Comments on Independent Auditors' Report on Company's Consolidated Financial Statements for Year Ended 2007
Grupo TMM, S.A.B. (NYSE: TMM | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) (BMV: TMM A) ("TMM"), a Mexican intermodal transportation and logistics company, announced earlier today it has commented on its Auditors' Report on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2007, included in its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the period, filed with the SEC on June 30 of this year.
The Auditors' Report states that "The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the Company's ability to meet its financing requirements on a continuing basis, to comply with its present financing arrangements, and to succeed in its future operations." However, the Report also stated that "The Company's management has taken the following steps to improve its operating and financial results: a) the acquisition of operating assets for the logistics segment, b) the acquisition of a new fleet of new vessels to replace an aging fleet of leased vessels, c) an organizational restructuring to reduce administrative expenses, and d) the commencement of a financing project to replace certain debt with Trust Certificates having more favorable conditions and interest rates.
The Company's management believes that its 2008 business plan considers a significant increase in income and generation of cash from operations. These increases would be derived from business levels and assets that are substantially in place as of the end of the Company's fiscal year 2007. Company's management also believes that the aforementioned will permit the Company to continue on its positive trend of increasing efficiency and coverage ratios and realizing its current strategy of creating a healthy and competitive financial structure for the Company in the medium term." TMM reported at December 31, 2007, cash provided by operating activities of $37.2 million, and of $15.6 million in the first quarter of 2008. Cash flow from operations had not been positive since 2004.
Also, as part of TMM's strategy to grow with the acquisition of profitable assets with contracted revenues, the Company has completed a Trust Certificates Program for up to 9.0 billion pesos through three tranches. This Trust Certificate facility is non-recourse to the Company and is tied to the useful life of the vessels purchased with the proceeds. The first and third tranches were rated AA and the second tranche was rated AA- by Fitch Ratings, reflecting TMM's continued quality operating performance, increased demand for maritime transportation services and the Mexican Navigation Law principles.
This Program is the largest placement of long-term debt tied to the useful life of transportation assets that has been issued in the Mexican Market, setting a milestone for this kind of transaction in Mexico.
