HOUSTON, Aug. 11, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Adams Resources & Energy, Inc. (NYSE AMERICAN: AE) ("Adams" or the "Company") today announces operational and financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and declares a quarterly cash dividend of $0.24 per common share. 

Q2 2022 Financial Highlights

Adjusted net earnings (losses), adjusted earnings (losses) per diluted common share and adjusted cash flow are non-generally accepted accounting principle ("non-GAAP") financial measures that are defined and reconciled in the financial tables later in this release. 

Additional Q2 2022 Highlights

Kevin J. Roycraft, Adams' Chief Executive Officer, said, "We are delighted to report continued momentum through the second quarter, resulting in a strong first half of 2022 both operationally and financially.  All three of our segments made important progress on their strategic initiatives designed to sustain profitability and grow their respective businesses for the long-term benefit of our shareholders.  I want to thank all of our team members for their steadfast dedication to providing our customers with a safe, efficient and best-in-class service offering." 

Capital Investments and Dividends

During the second quarter of 2022, the Company spent capital of $1.1 million for tractors, trailers and other field equipment.  In addition, Adams paid dividends of $1.1 million, or $0.24 per common share.    

As part of Adams' on-going capital allocation strategy, the Board of Directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend for the second quarter of 2022 of $0.24 per common share, payable on September 23, 2022, to shareholders of record as of September 9, 2022.  Adams' has consistently paid a dividend since 1994.    

Outlook

Mr. Roycraft concluded, "We look forward to further executing our strategic plan to drive increased efficiencies across the entire organization.  We continue to have a strong financial position, which includes a liquidity position of more than $102 million at the end of this year's second quarter.  As in the past, we will continue to leverage our significant operational expertise and financial flexibility to execute on opportunities designed to prudently grow our business.  We remain laser focused on providing significant long-term value for our shareholders, demonstrated by the regular return on capital through our consistent payment of quarterly cash dividends."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release and accompanying schedules includes the non-GAAP financial measures of adjusted cash flow, adjusted net earnings (losses) and adjusted earnings (losses) per common share.  The accompanying schedules provide definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations to their most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.  Company management believes these measures are useful indicators of the financial performance of our business and uses these measurements as aids in monitoring the Company's ongoing financial performance from quarter to quarter and year to year on a regular basis and for benchmarking against peer companies.  Our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP measures such as net income, operating income, net cash flow provided by operating activities, earnings per share or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.  Adams' non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate such measures in the same manner as Adams does.  The non-GAAP financial measures are defined and reconciled in the financial tables below.
