Student Transportation Inc. Reports Fiscal Year 2015 Second Quarter and Six Month Results

Growth and Lower Fuel Creates Momentum in First Six Months

BARRIE, Ontario, Feb. 11, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Student Transportation Inc. ("STI" or the "Company") (TSX: STB) (Nasdaq: STB) today reported financial results for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2015, ended December 31, 2014. All financial results are reported in US dollars except as otherwise noted.

"We are very pleased with the operating results for the second quarter of fiscal 2015," said Denis J. Gallagher, Chairman and CEO. "Revenues for the second quarter increased 16.2% while Adjusted EBITDA* increased 16.5% as we continued our growth strategy. We are now seeing lower fuel costs while also experiencing stronger revenue trends with some increased contract pricing in the market, incremental routes under existing contracts and higher extracurricular, charter and ancillary revenues in the current year."

Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA* for the second quarter of fiscal 2015 were $157.5 million and $36.0 million, respectively, compared to $135.5 million and $30.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2014. STI reported net income for the second quarter of $3.5 million, or $0.04 per common share compared to $2.9 million or $0.04 per common share for the prior year second quarter.

"We are off to a solid start for the first half of fiscal 2015 and anticipate the positive momentum to continue into the second half of the year," added Mr. Gallagher. "Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA* for the first half are 17.9% and 19.5% above last year. Fuel came in at 7.5% of revenue for the first six months, below the 8.5% realized for the first six months of last year, even with the fuel mitigation included in some of our revenue contracts and the partial lock-in of fiscal 2015 fuel exposure towards the beginning of the 2015 fiscal year. As we recently commented, we anticipate the lower fuel trend to continue to improve in the second half of this fiscal year based on the current lower market prices and further improve for next fiscal year with the more recent fuel lock ins for fiscal 2016."

Revenue for the first six months of fiscal 2015 increased to $246.0 million from $208.7 million and Adjusted EBITDA* was $35.2 million compared to $29.5 million for the first six months of fiscal year 2014. Net loss for the first six months of fiscal 2015 was $5.2 million, or $0.06 loss per common share compared to the first six months of the prior fiscal year which reflected a net loss of $5.9 million, or $0.07 loss per common share.

"We continue to focus on the integration of the fourteen new bid contracts won for fiscal 2015. While we look to maintain the positive momentum exhibited in the first six months as we move through the remainder of the current fiscal year, we are also excited about the coming fiscal year as well," noted Mr. Gallagher. "We are in an active bid market for next fiscal year, where prices seem to be strengthening in our core business, and we are exploring several new opportunities in connection with our management services group and our SafeStop mobile application sales program initiatives as they continue to evolve. As such, early indications look for continued improvements in the balance of this year and for next year as well."

* Non-GAAP Measures

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure, but management believes it is useful in measuring STI's performance. Readers are cautioned that this measure should not be construed as an alternative to net income or loss or other comparable measures determined in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of the Company's performance or as a measure of its liquidity and cash flow. The Company's method of calculating non-GAAP measures may differ from the methods used by other issuers and accordingly, the Company's non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other issuers.
