Civeo to Acquire Four Villages in Australian Bowen Basin

Civeo executes on growth strategy with disciplined and accretive acquisition

Highlights:

• Transaction expands Civeo’s Australian owned-village portfolio in the world’s premier metallurgical coal basin, the Bowen Basin;
• Civeo enters the Blackwater region, extending its unmatched presence and capabilities across the wider Bowen Basin;
• Solid contract coverage with new and existing, blue-chip, metallurgical coal producers under take-or-pay contracts;
• Civeo will purchase the four villages for A$105 million, or approximately US$67 million, funded with cash on hand and borrowings under the Company’s existing credit agreement; and
• Expects annualized revenue and EBITDA of approximately A$50 million and A$27 million, or approximately US$32 million and US$17 million, respectively.

Civeo Corporation (NYSE:CVEO) announced today that it has entered into a definitive asset purchase agreement with a private seller for Civeo to acquire four villages with 1,340 rooms in Australia’s Bowen Basin and the associated long-term customer contracts.

Under the terms of the agreement, Civeo would acquire the assets and customer contracts for total cash consideration of A$105 million, or approximately US$67 million, funded with cash on hand and borrowings from its existing revolving credit facility.

“This acquisition strengthens our presence in Australia’s Bowen Basin, where we have experienced significant occupancy growth in our existing owned-village portfolio over the last few years,” said Bradley J. Dodson, Civeo's President and Chief Executive Officer. “These villages provide an attractive entry point into the Blackwater region of the Bowen Basin not currently served by our existing villages, supported by contracts with blue-chip metallurgical coal producers with significant investments in this region.

Mr. Dodson concluded, “Upon closing, we expect the transaction to be immediately accretive to operating cash flow. We have strategically built a capital structure that enables us to allocate capital where we see attractive returns, balancing value-enhancing growth and continuing to return capital to shareholders through our dividend and share repurchase program. We look forward to discussing this announcement on our upcoming earnings call later this month.”

This transaction is anticipated to close in the second quarter of 2025, subject to regulatory approvals and customary conditions.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that is defined as net income (loss) attributable to Civeo Corporation plus interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Civeo is unable to provide a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking EBITDA to its most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measure because management cannot reliably predict certain of the necessary components of such forward-looking GAAP measure. Civeo has included forward-looking EBITDA as a supplemental disclosure because its management believes that EBITDA provides useful information regarding its ability to service debt and to fund capital expenditures and provide investors a helpful measure for comparing Civeo's operating performance with the performance of other companies that have different financing and capital structures or tax rates. Because non-GAAP financial information is not standardized, it may not be possible to directly compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures.
