EXHIBIT 99.1
Via Renewables, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2023 Financial Results
HOUSTON, May 3, 2023 (ACCESSWIRE) -- Via Renewables, Inc. ("Via Renewables" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: VIA, VIASP), an independent retail energy services company, today reported financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.
Key Highlights
|
| · | Reported $(6.8) million in Net Loss and $18.8 million in Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter |
|
| · | Achieved $14.4 million in Gross Profit and expanded Retail Gross Margin to $40.3 million for the first quarter |
|
| · | Total RCE count of 339,000 as of March 31, 2023, up from 331,000 as of December 31, 2022 |
|
| · | Total liquidity of $75.4 million as of March 31, 2023 |
"We are pleased with the strong first quarter results despite some milder than normal weather as commodity prices continued their path downward from the fourth quarter. We were able to grow our customer base organically and have expanded to an additional deregulated state that we currently operate in, bringing the total to 20," said Keith Maxwell, Via Renewables’ President and Chief Executive Officer.
Summary First Quarter 2023 Financial Results
Net Loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, was $(6.8) million compared to Net Income of $31.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. $54.6 million of the decrease, compared to the prior year, was the result of a reduction in the mark-to-market on our hedges we put in place to lock in margins on our retail contracts. The decrease in Net Income was partially offset by a reduction of $8.0 million in income tax expense and a $1.8 million reduction in depreciation and amortization expense.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, Via Renewables reported Adjusted EBITDA of $18.8 million compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $10.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, an increase of 74% year over year. The $8.0 million increase was driven by an increase in both our power and natural gas gross margin and was partially offset by an increase in G&A and CAC spend versus the first quarter of 2022.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, Via Renewables reported Gross Profit of $14.4 million compared to Gross Profit of $58.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The decrease, compared to the prior year, was largely the result of a reduction in the mark-to-market on our hedges.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, Via Renewables reported Retail Gross Margin of $40.3 million compared to Retail Gross Margin of $28.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The $11.5 million increase in Retail Gross Margin is mainly due to higher unit margins offset by decreased volumes for both power and natural gas.

Dividends on Series A Preferred Stock will be paid on July 17, 2023 to holders of record on July 1, 2023. Additionally, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had elected to temporarily suspend the quarterly cash dividend on the common stock to better enhance its financial flexibility and strengthen its balance sheet. Via Renewables will continue to closely monitor market conditions and the Board will thoughtfully evaluate the timing of for reinstatement of the Class A common stock dividend.
Business Outlook
Mr. Maxwell concluded, "We're focused on our financial flexibility so that we may manage any potential market volatility headed into the summer months. We also remain dedicated to prioritizing shareholders’ interests, strengthening our balance sheet and investing in both organic and inorganic growth to drive long term shareholder value."

| (2) | Reflects the Retail Gross Margin for the Retail Electricity Segment or Retail Natural Gas Segment, as applicable, divided by the total volumes in MWh or MMBtu, respectively. |
Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures
Adjusted EBITDA
We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as EBITDA less (i) customer acquisition costs incurred in the current period, plus or minus (ii) net (loss) gain on derivative instruments, and (iii) net current period cash settlements on derivative instruments, plus (iv) non-cash compensation expense, and (v) other non-cash and non-recurring operating items. EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before the provision for income taxes, interest expense and depreciation and amortization. This conforms to the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA in our Senior Credit Facility.
We deduct all current period customer acquisition costs (representing spending for organic customer acquisitions) in the Adjusted EBITDA calculation because such costs reflect a cash outlay in the period in which they are incurred, even though we capitalize and amortize such costs over two years. We do not deduct the cost of customer acquisitions through acquisitions of businesses or portfolios of customers in calculating Adjusted EBITDA.
| 5 |
We deduct our net gains (losses) on derivative instruments, excluding current period cash settlements, from the Adjusted EBITDA calculation in order to remove the non-cash impact of net gains and losses on these instruments. We also deduct non-cash compensation expense that results from the issuance of restricted stock units under our long-term incentive plan due to the non-cash nature of the expense. We adjust from time to time other non-cash or unusual and/or infrequent charges due to either their non-cash nature or their infrequency. We have historically included the financial impact of weather variability in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA.
We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides information useful to investors in assessing our liquidity and financial condition and results of operations and that Adjusted EBITDA is also useful to investors as a financial indicator of our ability to incur and service debt, pay dividends, and fund capital expenditures. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental financial measure that management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, commercial banks and rating agencies, use to assess the following:
|
| · | our operating performance as compared to other publicly traded companies in the retail energy industry, without regard to financing methods, capital structure, historical cost basis and specific items not reflective of ongoing operations; |
|
| · | the ability of our assets to generate earnings sufficient to support our proposed cash dividends; |
|
| · | our ability to fund capital expenditures (including customer acquisition costs) and incur and service debt; and |
|
| · | our compliance with financial debt covenants in our Senior Credit Facility. |
Retail Gross Margin
We define retail gross margin as gross profit less (i) net asset optimization revenues (expenses), (ii) net gains (losses) on non-trading derivative instruments, (iii) net current period cash settlements on non-trading derivative instruments and (iv) gains (losses) from non-recurring events (including non-recurring market volatility). Retail gross margin is included as a supplemental disclosure because it is a primary performance measure used by our management to determine the performance of our retail natural gas and electricity segments as a result of recurring operations. As an indicator of our retail energy business’s operating performance, retail gross margin should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, gross profit, its most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
We believe retail gross margin provides information useful to investors as an indicator of our retail energy business's operating performance.
Our non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA and Retail Gross Margin should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss), net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, or gross profit. Adjusted EBITDA and Retail Gross Margin are not presentations made in accordance with GAAP and have limitations as analytical tools. You should not consider Adjusted EBITDA or Retail Gross Margin in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because Adjusted EBITDA and Retail Gross Margin exclude some, but not all, items that affect net income (loss), net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, and gross profit, and are defined differently by different companies in our industry, our definition of Adjusted EBITDA and Retail Gross Margin may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
Management compensates for the limitations of Adjusted EBITDA and Retail Gross Margin as analytical tools by reviewing the comparable GAAP measures, understanding the differences between the measures and incorporating these data points into management’s decision-making process.
