小黄书 Reports Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2019 Results and Updates its Financial Outlook for Fiscal Year 2019

DENVER, Sept. 16, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 小黄书. (Nasdaq: BBCP) (the 鈥淐ompany鈥� or 鈥淐PH鈥�), a leading provider of concrete pumping services and concrete waste management services in the U.S. and U.K., today reported financial results for its third fiscal quarter ended July 31, 2019 and updated its financial outlook for fiscal year 2019.

Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2019 Summary

Management Commentary

鈥淥ur 18% revenue growth in the third fiscal quarter was driven largely by the contribution from our successful Capital Pumping acquisition, as well as broad end-market strength in the U.S. and growth in Eco-Pan,鈥� said CEO Bruce Young. 鈥淭his increase in revenue, combined with a 430-basis point expansion in gross margin, were the primary factors responsible for the substantial growth in Adjusted EBITDA over the previous year. Additionally, the steps taken to strengthen our supply chain, such as cost reductions in replacement parts, fuel and operating supplies, contributed to our improved Adjusted EBITDA, and position us well to scale our business in the future.听

鈥淲e acquired Capital Pumping on May 15, and the business integration process is tracking on schedule. Additionally, Capital Pumping鈥檚 performance in the third quarter was in-line with expectations as we saw strong demand across most of our end markets in Texas. We believe this business will be a positive element of our overall portfolio and expect it will be accretive to our combined financial results, as evidenced in our third quarter Adjusted EBITDA margin of 38.9%.

鈥淎s we enter our fourth fiscal quarter, and now that we have completed a significant portion of the Capital Pumping integration, we have updated our fiscal year 2019 financial outlook. We expect construction activity to remain robust over the coming months as we work through our backlog of delayed projects from the first half of the year and as new projects kick off. Looking to fiscal 2020, the current project outlook in the U.S. is much stronger now than this time last year. Combining this with pricing power initiatives and margin-enhancing opportunities we have from Eco-Pan, Capital Pumping and overall business synergies, we have confidence in our growth prospects in fiscal year 2020.鈥�

^1听 Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (鈥淕AAP鈥�). See 鈥淣on-GAAP Financial Measures鈥� below for a discussion of the definition of these measures and a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to its most comparable GAAP measure.

Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2019 Financial Results

On May 15, 2019, the Company acquired Capital Pumping, LP (鈥淐apital Pumping鈥�), a concrete pumping provider based in Texas for a purchase price of $129.2 million. The closing of this acquisition provided the Company with complementary assets and operations and significantly expanded the Company鈥檚 footprint and business in Texas. In order to finance the acquisition, the Company added $60.0 million of incremental term loans under its term loan B facility and completed a public offering of 18,098,166 shares of its common stock at a price of $4.50 per share, receiving net proceeds of approximately $77.4 million, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions, and other offering expenses.

Revenue in the third fiscal quarter increased 18% to $78.7 million compared to $66.6 million in the year-ago quarter. The increase was largely attributable to the acquisition of Capital Pumping coupled with growth in many of the Company鈥檚 existing core markets. Higher revenue was partially offset by the effect of the strengthening U.S. Dollar on the U.K. segment鈥檚 reported results. On a pro forma basis, which includes the results of recent acquisitions both pre and post the transaction date, revenue increased 3% over the previous year. Adjusting the pro forma revenue for a constant currency exchange rate, revenue increased 4% in the third quarter as compared to the prior year.

Gross profit in the third fiscal quarter increased 29% to $39.0 million compared to $30.2 million in the year-ago quarter. Gross margin increased 430 basis points to 49.6% compared to 45.3% in the year-ago quarter. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to the post-acquisition contribution from Capital Pumping, more favorable fuel pricing and better procurement costs. The increase in gross margin was partially offset by the step-up in depreciation related to the business combination with Industrea Acquisition Corp. (the 鈥淏usiness Combination鈥�) in December 2018, as depreciation expense related to pumping equipment is included in the Company鈥檚 cost of operations.

General and administrative expenses in the third fiscal quarter were $28.2 million compared to $16.8 million in the year-ago quarter. As a percent of revenue, general and administrative expenses were 35.8% compared to 25.2% in the year-ago quarter. The increase was largely due to higher amortization of intangible assets expense of $8.6 million, most of which was the result of the Business Combination. In addition, the Company incurred an additional $1.5 million in stock-based compensation expense as a result of a stock grant in April of 2019. Excluding amortization of intangible assets and stock-based compensation expense, general and administrative expenses were up $1.3 million from $14.9 million in the third fiscal quarter of 2018 to $16.3 million in the third fiscal quarter of 2019. The remainder of the year-over-year increase was mostly attributable to headcount growth, predominantly from the new team members at Capital. General and administrative expenses as a percent of revenue, excluding amortization of intangible assets and stock-based compensation expense, would have improved from 22.4% in the third fiscal quarter of 2018 to 20.7% in the third fiscal quarter of 2019.

Net income attributable to common shareholders in the third fiscal quarter was $2.3 million, or $0.05 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA¹ in the third fiscal quarter increased 37% to $30.6 million compared to $22.3 million in the year-ago quarter. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased 540 basis points to 38.9%, compared to 33.5% in the year-ago quarter. The increase in revenue, combined with a 430-basis point increase in gross margin, were the primary factors responsible for the substantial growth in Adjusted EBITDA.

As of July 31, 2019, the Company had $4.5 million of cash, $439.1 million of total outstanding debt and $21.8 million of available borrowing capacity under its ABL Credit Agreement.

Segment Results

U.S. Concrete Pumping. Revenue in the third fiscal quarter increased 29% to $58.4 million compared to $45.3 million in the year-ago quarter. The incremental benefit of the Capital Pumping acquisition, which added additional pumping capacity in Texas, represented $12.3 million of the increase in revenue. This segment also had notable improvements in revenue in most markets. Adjusted EBITDA in the third fiscal quarter increased by 66% to $22.0 million over the previous year primarily due to post-acquisition revenue from Capital Pumping, better fuel pricing and better procurement costs.

U.K. Concrete Pumping. Revenue in the third fiscal quarter was $12.5 million compared to $13.9 million in the year-ago quarter. The decline in revenue was largely attributable to appreciation of the U.S. dollar relative to the Pound Sterling. Excluding any impact from foreign exchange rates, revenue for this segment was down by 4% year-over-year given some uncertainties in the U.K. economy attributable to Brexit. Adjusted EBITDA in the third fiscal quarter decreased by 17% to $4.3 million over the previous year primarily due to 听the same factors that affected revenue, predominantly currency translation.

Concrete Waste Management Services 鈥� Eco-Pan. Revenue in the third fiscal quarter increased 6% to $8.0 million compared to $7.5 million in the year-ago quarter. The increase was driven primarily by higher volumes. Adjusted EBITDA in the third fiscal quarter increased by 8% to $3.6 million over the previous year due to higher revenue.

Historical Seasonality

The Company has provided below the unaudited quarterly historical financials on both a consolidated basis and by operating segment to provide investors with data to better analyze the effect of seasonality on the Company鈥檚 financial performance. See "Quarterly Historical Financial Information" below.

Revised Fiscal Year 2019 Outlook

The Company now expects fiscal year 2019 revenue to be approximately $284 million and Adjusted EBITDA¹ to be approximately $95 million. The updated fiscal year 2019 outlook includes the contribution from Capital Pumping starting May 15, 2019, the date the acquisition closed. If the Company owned Capital Pumping since the first day of this fiscal year, it is estimated that its fiscal 2019 pro forma revenue and Adjusted EBITDA would be approximately $311 million and $108 million, respectively.

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. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue for the period presented.

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 annual and unaudited interim 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 first three quarters 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 first three quarters 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 Business Combination closing date (labeled 鈥淧redecessor鈥�) and the period including and after that date (labeled 鈥淪uccessor鈥�). The Business Combination 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.

Quarterly Historical Financial Information

鹿 Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure that is not calculated in accordance with GAAP. See 鈥淣on-GAAP Financial Measures鈥� below for a discussion of the definition of this measure and reconciliation of such measure to its most comparable GAAP measure.
虏 Implied by full-year fiscal 2019 guidance effective September 16, 2019.

NON-GAAP MEASURES (ADJUSTED EBITDA)

We calculate EBITDA by taking GAAP net income and adding back interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by taking EBITDA and adding back transaction expenses, other adjustments, management fees and other expenses. We believe these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends related to our financial condition and results of operations, as a tool for investors to use in evaluating our ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial measures with competitors who also present similar non-GAAP financial measures. In addition, these measures (1) are used in quarterly financial reports prepared for management and our board of directors and (2) help management to determine incentive compensation. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated under GAAP. This non-GAAP measure excludes certain cash expenses that we are obligated to make. In addition, other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently or may not calculate it at all, which limits the usefulness of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as comparative measures. Transaction expenses represent expenses for legal, accounting, and other professionals that were engaged in the completion of various acquisitions. Other adjustments include severance expenses, director fees, and other significant non-recurring costs. Furthermore, a quantitative reconciliation of our estimated fiscal 2019 pro forma Adjusted EBITDA mentioned above to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure has not been provided due to the lack of predictability regarding the various reconciling items such as provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization, which are expected to have a material impact on these measures and cannot be predicted without unreasonable efforts. We believe that these items may have a significant impact on our final GAAP financial results for that period. See also 鈥淣on-GAAP Financial Measures鈥� above.
