Management Commentary

鈥淲e delivered another strong quarter driven by continued growth in every segment, particularly double-digit increases in our U.K. operations and in Eco-Pan,鈥 said CPH CEO Bruce Young. 鈥淚n fact, Eco-Pan experienced another quarter of exceptional growth with a 26% increase in revenue as we continued to leverage the organic growth in our operations network and an expanded salesforce. Within our U.S. concrete pumping business, we continued to experience improvement in our commercial and infrastructure projects. However, above average precipitation and colder temperatures听in most of our regions west of the Rockies, as well as Colorado, impacted sales as well as profitability given lower equipment utilization.

鈥淟ooking ahead, we anticipate ongoing growth in our infrastructure and commercial end markets given our expanded footprint and momentum with heavy commercial projects. Our focus remains on optimizing end market mix to continue to deliver strong top and bottom-line growth as we move into the peak summer construction season. We will also continue to focus on maximizing shareholder value by leveraging our unique operational capabilities, high-value service offering, and opportunistic, accretive M&A while strategically balancing our leverage. And, our ABL upsize this month to $225.0 million and five year extended maturity further enhances our ability to pursue accretive investment opportunities and support our overall long-term growth."

1 Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and net debt are financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (鈥淕AAP鈥). See 鈥淣on-GAAP Financial Measures鈥 below for a discussion of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this release and a reconciliation to their most comparable GAAP measures. As of the first quarter of fiscal 2023, adjusted EBITDA no longer includes an add-back for director costs and public company expenses.

Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2023 Financial Results

Revenue in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 increased 12% to $107.8 million compared to $96.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2022. The increase was attributable to strong growth across each of the Company鈥檚 segments as a result of organic growth from some higher volumes in certain regions coupled with improved pricing, as well as the acquisition of Coastal Carolina Pumping (Coastal) in August 2022. Revenue attributable to the Coastal acquisition was $5.0 million in the second quarter of 2023.

Gross profit in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 increased 12% to $43.5 million compared to $38.9 million in the prior year quarter. Gross margin was 40.3% compared to 40.4% in the prior year quarter. While there was stabilization of certain input costs, particularly in diesel fuel, this was offset by slightly lower equipment utilization as a result of inclement weather conditions affecting the fiscal 2023 second quarter, particularly in locations west of the Rocky Mountains.

General and administrative expenses in Q2 were $30.3 million, up $1.7 million from $28.6 million in the same year-ago quarter as a result of higher labor costs related to recent acquisitions. As a percentage of revenue, G&A costs were 28.1% in the second quarter compared to 29.6% in the same year-ago quarter.

During the three-month periods ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized gains of $1.2 million and $2.5 million, respectively, on the fair value remeasurement of its liability-classified warrants. The continued decline in the fair value remeasurement of the public warrants for both periods is due to the Company's share price being below the exercise price as the warrants get closer to expiring in December 2023.

Net income in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 was $5.6 million compared to $6.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2022. Net income attributable to common shareholders in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 was $5.2 million, or $0.09 per diluted share,听compared to $5.6 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, in the prior year quarter.

Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 increased 7% to $28.8 million compared to $27.1 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA margin declined to 26.7% compared to 28.0% in the prior year quarter, primarily due to the severe winter weather impacts on operating leverage.

Liquidity

On April 30, 2023, the Company had debt outstanding of $435.9 million, net debt听of $429.3 million and total available liquidity of $100.4 million.

On June 1, 2023, the Company amended and upsized its ABL Facility to, among other things, (1) increase the maximum revolver borrowings available to be drawn thereunder from $160.0 million to $225.0 million and (2) extend the maturity of the ABL Facility to June 1, 2028 (a five-year extension from closing). The $65.0 million in incremental commitments included the introduction of PNC Bank N.A. providing a new commitment of $50.0 million and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. increasing their existing commitment by $15.0 million.

Segment Results

U.S. Concrete Pumping.听Revenue in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 increased 9% to $78.4 million compared to $71.8 million in the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily due to revenue contribution听in the second quarter of 2023 from the Coastal acquisition.听Net income in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 was $0.5 million compared to $1.7 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $17.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 compared to $18.0 million in the prior year quarter.

U.K. Operations. Revenue in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 increased 13% to $15.2 million compared to $13.5 million in the prior year quarter. Excluding the impact from foreign currency translation, revenue was up 22% year-over-year. The increase was primarily attributable to pricing improvements. Net income in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 improved to $0.9 million compared to $0.1 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $4.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 compared to $3.8 million in the prior year quarter.

U.S. Concrete Waste Management Services. Revenue in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 increased 26% to $14.2 million compared to $11.3 million in the prior year quarter. The increase was due to organic growth and pricing improvements. Net income in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 increased 89% to $2.7 million compared to $1.4 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 increased 39% to $6.5 million compared to $4.6 million in the prior year quarter.

Fiscal Year 2023 Outlook

The Company continues to expect fiscal year 2023 revenue to range between $420.0 million to $445.0 million, Adjusted EBITDA to range between $125.0 million to $135.0 million, and free cash flow2 to range between $65.0 million and $75.0 million.

ForwardLooking 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 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 鈥渙utlook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, including the Company's fiscal year 2023 outlook. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from 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 adverse impact of recent inflationary pressures, global economic conditions and developments related to these conditions, such as fluctuations in fuel costs and the ongoing war in Ukraine and the COVID-19 pandemic, on our business; the outcome of any legal proceedings or demand letters that may be instituted against or sent to the Company or its subsidiaries; the ability of the Company to grow and manage growth profitably and retain its key employees; the ability to complete targeted acquisitions and to realize the expected benefits from completed acquisitions; 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, including the risk factors in the Company's latest Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Form 10-Q/A. 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

This press release presents Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, net debt and free cash flow, all of which are important financial measures for the Company, but are not financial measures defined by GAAP.

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 and annual 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, loss on debt extinguishment, stock-based compensation, other income, net, and other adjustments. Other adjustments includes the adjustment for warrant liabilities revaluation, extraordinary expenses and non-cash currency gains/losses. As of the first quarter of fiscal 2023, we have modified the method in which adjusted EBITDA is calculated by no longer including an add-back for director costs and public company expenses. Adjusted EBITDA in the听three and six months ended April 30, 2022 is recast by $0.6 million and $1.3 million, respectively, for these expenses to reflect this change. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue for the period presented. See below for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Net debt is calculated as all amounts outstanding under debt agreements (currently this includes the Company鈥檚 term loan and revolving line of credit balances, excluding any offsets for capitalized deferred financing costs) measured in accordance with GAAP less cash. Cash is subtracted from the GAAP measure because it could be used to reduce the Company鈥檚 debt obligations. A limitation associated with using net debt is that it subtracts cash and therefore may imply that there is less Company debt than the most comparable GAAP measure indicates. CPH believes this non-GAAP measure provides useful information to management and investors in order to monitor the Company鈥檚 leverage and evaluate the Company鈥檚 consolidated balance sheet. See 鈥淣on-GAAP Measures (Reconciliation of Net Debt)鈥 below for a reconciliation of Net Debt to amounts outstanding under debt agreements calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Free cash flow is defined as Adjusted EBITDA less net replacement capital expenditures and cash paid for interest. This measure is not a substitute for cash flow from operations and does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures, since certain non-discretionary expenditures, such as debt servicing payments, are not deducted from the measure. CPH believes this non-GAAP measure provides useful information to management and investors in order to monitor and evaluate the cash flow yield of the business.

The financial statement tables that accompany this press release include a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and net debt to the applicable most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure. However, the Company has not reconciled the forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA guidance range and free cash flow range included in this press release to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures because this cannot be done without unreasonable effort due to the lack of predictability regarding the various reconciling items such as provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization.

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, net debt and free cash flow differently and therefore these measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA in the听three and six months ended April 30, 2022 is recast by $0.6 million and $1.3 million, respectively, for these expenses to reflect this change.
