Management Commentary

鈥淭he last few months have been extremely productive and eventful for our organization, and was capped by 10% revenue growth in the second quarter,鈥� said 小黄书 CEO Bruce Young. 鈥淲e saw revenue growth across all our segments as we experienced broad end-market strength in the U.S., solid price and volume increases in the U.K., and we expanded our Eco-Pan footprint to 16 locations from 14 at the end of last quarter. This was somewhat offset by the continued strengthening of the U.S. dollar on the U.K. segment鈥檚 reported results, as well as continued adverse weather in our U.S. West coast region, largely within Eco-Pan鈥檚 high-volume, mature markets.

鈥淚n the last few months we completed several strategic transactions, including the acquisition of Capital Pumping and Atlas Concrete Pumping, the successful exchange of 62% of our outstanding warrants, and the completion of our follow-on equity offering, which raised $78.2 million in net proceeds that were largely used to fund the acquisition of Capital Pumping. All of these transactions support our strategic growth plan and we believe position us well to drive long-term shareholder value.

鈥淟ooking ahead, we will be focused on the integration of Capital Pumping onto our platform and into our extensive network, which we expect will help drive efficiencies and synergies across the combined business, as well as continue to optimize utilization and generate organic growth across our legacy operations. We believe that we have the right team in place to successfully execute on our strategic plan and I am excited for this next phase to unfold.鈥�

Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2019 Financial Results

Revenue in the second quarter of fiscal year 2019 increased 10% to $62.0 million compared to $56.4 million in the year-ago quarter. The increase was largely due to growth across all of the Company鈥檚 segments from higher construction activity and the benefit from the acquisition of Richard O鈥橞rien Companies (鈥淥鈥橞rien Acquisition鈥�) in April 2018. This was partially offset by continued adverse weather conditions across the U.S. West coast region and the effect of the strengthening U.S. Dollar on the U.K. segment鈥檚 reported results.

Gross profit in the second quarter of fiscal year 2019 was $24.4 million, flat compared to the year-ago quarter. Gross margin was 39.3% compared to 43.3% in the year-ago quarter. The decline in gross margin was primarily due to the step-up in depreciation related to the business combination with Industrea Acquisition Corp. (鈥淏usiness Combination鈥�) in December 2018, as depreciation expense related to pumping equipment is included in cost of operations.

General and administrative expenses in the second quarter of fiscal year 2019 were $21.9 million compared to $12.4 million in the year-ago quarter. As a percent of revenue, general and administrative expenses were 35.3% compared to 22.0% last year. The increase was largely due to $5.1 million of higher amortization expense caused by the step-up in fair value of certain intangible assets related to the Business Combination and a $2.3 million increase in public company-related expenses.

Net loss attributable to common shareholders in the second quarter of fiscal year 2019 was $10.1 million, or $(0.35) per basic and diluted share, compared to net income attributable to common shareholders of $3.3 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, in the year-ago quarter. The decline was primarily driven by an increase in depreciation and amortization expense related to the Business Combination and higher interest expense due to increased year-over-year debt levels.

Adjusted EBITDA¹ (a non-GAAP financial measure that is not pro forma for acquisitions and is defined below) in the second quarter of fiscal year 2019 increased slightly to $17.9 million compared to $17.7 million in the year-ago quarter.

As of April 30, 2019, the Company had $2.9 million of cash and $366.9 million of total outstanding debt compared to $8.6 million of cash and $237.1 million of total outstanding debt at October 31, 2018. On completion of the Business Combination, all of the Predecessor鈥檚 debt was extinguished, and the Company entered into a term loan agreement and an asset-based lending credit agreement, resulting in the increased level of debt.

Segment Results

U.S. Concrete Pumping 鈥� Brundage-Bone. Revenue in the second quarter of fiscal year 2019 increased 13% to $42.5 million compared to $37.7 million in the year-ago quarter. The increase was largely due to the O鈥橞rien Acquisition and improved construction activity across the majority of CPH鈥檚 end markets. This was partially offset by continued adverse weather conditions in the U.S. West coast region.

U.K. Concrete Pumping 鈥� Camfaud. Revenue in the second quarter of fiscal year 2019 increased 5% to $12.7 million compared to $12.1 million in the year-ago quarter. The increase was driven by improved utilization rates, which were partially offset by the continued strengthening of the U.S. dollar. On a constant currency basis, revenue increased 13% compared to the year-ago quarter.

Concrete Waste Management Services 鈥� Eco-Pan. Revenue in the second quarter of fiscal year 2019 increased 2% to $6.8 million compared to $6.6 million in the year-ago quarter. The increase was driven by the continued expansion of Eco-Pan鈥檚 service offering but was largely offset by continued adverse weather conditions in the West coast region, one of its high-volume, mature markets.

Forward鈥怢ooking Statements

This press release includes 鈥渇orward-looking statements鈥� within the meaning of the 鈥渟afe harbor鈥� provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company鈥檚 actual results may differ from their expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as 鈥渆xpect,鈥� 鈥渆stimate,鈥� 鈥減roject,鈥� 鈥渂udget,鈥� 鈥渇orecast,鈥� 鈥渁nticipate,鈥� 鈥渋ntend,鈥� 鈥減lan,鈥� 鈥渕ay,鈥� 鈥渨ill,鈥� 鈥渃ould,鈥� 鈥渟hould,鈥� 鈥渂elieves,鈥� 鈥減redicts,鈥� 鈥減otential,鈥� 鈥渃ontinue,鈥� and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, the Company鈥檚 expectations with respect to future performance. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. Most of these factors are outside the Company鈥檚 control and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to: the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the Company or its subsidiaries; the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the Company to grow and manage growth profitably and retain its key employees; and realize the expected benefits from the acquisition of Capital Pumping; changes in applicable laws or regulations; the possibility that the Company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; and other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in the Company鈥檚 filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company cautions that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. The Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The Company does not undertake or accept any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in its expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure that is not calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (鈥淕AAP鈥�). The Company believes that this non-GAAP financial measure provides useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company鈥檚 financial condition and results of operations. The Company鈥檚 management also uses this non-GAAP financial measure to compare the Company鈥檚 performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses, determining incentive compensation and for budgeting and planning purposes. Adjusted EBITDA is also used in quarterly financial reports prepared for the Company鈥檚 board of directors. The Company believes that this non-GAAP measure provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating the Company鈥檚 ongoing operating results and in comparing the Company鈥檚 financial results with competitors who also present similar non-GAAP financial measures.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income calculated in accordance with GAAP plus interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, transaction expenses, gain (loss) on sale of assets, non-recurring adjustments, management fees and other one-time and non-operational expenses. Adjusted EBITDA is not pro forma for acquisitions.

The following tables reconcile Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) calculated in accordance with GAAP. Current and prospective investors should review the Company鈥檚 audited financial statements, which are filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company鈥檚 business. Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently and therefore this measure may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

As the underlying business and financial results of the Successor and Predecessor entities are expected to be largely consistent, excluding the impact on certain financial statement line items that were impacted by the Business Combination, management has combined the second quarter of fiscal year 2019 results of the Predecessor and Successor periods for comparability in certain tables below. Accordingly, in addition to presenting our results of operations as reported in our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, the tables below present the non-GAAP combined results for the second quarter of fiscal year 2019.

Presentation of Predecessor and Successor Financial Results

As a result of the Business Combination, the Company is the acquirer for accounting purposes and CPH is the acquiree and accounting predecessor. The Company鈥檚 financial statement presentation distinguishes the Company鈥檚 presentations into two distinct periods, the period up to the Closing Date (labeled 鈥淧redecessor鈥�) and the period including and after that date (labeled 鈥淪uccessor鈥�). The merger was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting, and the Successor financial statements reflect a new basis of accounting that is based on the fair value of the net assets acquired. As a result of the application of the acquisition method of accounting as of the effective time of the Business Combination, the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include a black line to distinguish the results for Predecessor and Successor reporting entities shown, as they are presented on a different basis and are therefore, not comparable.
