Management Commentary

鈥淲e delivered solid top and bottom line growth for the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2018,鈥� said 麻豆官网 CEO Bruce Young. 鈥淭hese results were driven by several factors, including positive construction momentum across all our segments, market share gains, and continued adoption of Eco-Pan, all of which are driving our confidence in the business for fiscal year 2019.

鈥淥ur Eco-Pan business, which provides the highest EBITDA margin of our three segments, once again grew double digits in fiscal year 2018. More and more, contractors are seeking premium alternatives for managing their concrete waste to mitigate potential costly clean-up, as well as potential fines by federal and state agencies. We believe the Eco-Pan business is under-penetrated in the marketplace and has significant opportunities for growth through market share gains and synergies with current Brundage-Bone and Camfaud customers.

鈥淚n April 2018, we completed the acquisition of Richard O鈥橞rien Companies. Combined with the acquisition of Reilly Concrete Pumping in July 2017, this expanded our U.S. and U.K. concrete pumping regional coverage and solidified the Brundage-Bone and Camfaud brands as the only national providers in both markets. Given our track record of completing more than 45 acquisitions since our founding in 1983, we have developed a highly repeatable integration and synergy model that we have employed at both companies.

鈥淚n the fourth quarter, we experienced some adverse weather conditions, particularly heavier than usual rain in the Texas and Oklahoma markets. This pushed business originally anticipated for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018 into fiscal year 2019. Based on the positive trends we are seeing in the business and marketplace, we are currently performing in line with expectations for fiscal 2019.

鈥淟ooking ahead, the entire organization is eager to enter the next phase of our evolution as a public company. Our near-term strategy is to drive organic growth through our market-leading brand portfolio 鈥� Brundage-Bone, Camfaud and Eco-Pan. At the same time, we will opportunistically target tuck-in acquisitions to further strengthen our core brands and pursue transactions that will allow us to enter new end markets. I am confident we are well positioned to execute on this strategy and drive shareholder value over the long-term.鈥�

Fourth Quarter Fiscal Year 2018 Financial Results

Revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018 increased 13% to $67.4 million compared to $59.6 million in the year-ago quarter. The increase was largely driven by contributions from the recent acquisition of Richard O鈥橞rien Companies in the U.S., as well as 15% growth in Eco-Pan. This was partially offset by adverse weather conditions that delayed a small number of projects originally anticipated for the fourth quarter, which have been pushed into fiscal year 2019.

Gross profit in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018 increased 10% to $28.9 million compared to $26.3 million in the year-ago quarter. Gross margin decreased approximately 120 basis points to 42.9% from 44.2% in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2017 primarily due to adverse weather conditions that impacted Brundage-Bone.

General and administrative expense in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018 increased 19% to $15.9 million compared to $13.4 million in the year-ago quarter. As a percent of revenue, general and administrative expense was 23.6% compared to 22.5% last year, due in part to adverse weather conditions that impacted Brundage-Bone.

Net income in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018 increased 21% to $1.4 million compared to $1.1 million in the year-ago quarter. Net income growth was primarily driven by the increase in revenue, which was partially offset by an increase in non-recurring transaction costs. Net income per diluted common share, which takes into account dividends on preferred shares and undistributed earnings allocated to preferred shares, was $0.09 in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018 compared to $0.07 in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2017. The aforementioned preferred shares were redeemed at the closing of the Business Combination.

Revenue pro forma for acquisitions increased 6% to $67.4 million.

Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP financial measure that is not pro forma for acquisitions and is defined below) in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018 increased 5% to $21.4 million compared to $20.3 million in the year-ago quarter.

Fiscal Year 2018 Financial Results

Revenue in fiscal year 2018 increased 15% to $243.2 million compared to $211.2 million in fiscal year 2017. The increase was primarily driven by contributions from the acquisitions of Richard O鈥橞rien Companies in the U.S. and Reilly Concrete Pumping Ltd. in the U.K, combined with 21% revenue growth in Eco-Pan and continued market share gains across Brundage-Bone and Camfaud.

Gross profit in fiscal year 2018 increased 18% to $106.3 million compared to $89.8 million in fiscal year 2017. Gross margin increased approximately 120 basis points to 43.7% from 42.5% largely due to lower depreciation expense and higher utilization rates.

General and administrative expense in fiscal year 2018 increased 11% to $58.8 million compared to $52.9 million in fiscal year 2017. As a percent of revenue, general and administrative expense decreased 80 basis points to 24.2% compared to 25.0% last year.

Net income in fiscal year 2018 improved to $28.4 million compared to $0.9 million in fiscal year 2017. The significant year-over-year increase was driven by a combination of higher revenue at a higher gross margin, an income tax benefit due to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, and a loss on extinguishment of debt incurred in fiscal year 2017 that did not recur in fiscal year 2018. This was partially offset by higher transaction costs in fiscal year 2018 related to the Business Combination. Net income (loss) per diluted common share, which takes into account dividends on preferred shares and undistributed earnings allocated to preferred shares that were redeemed at the closing of the Business Combination, was $2.47 in fiscal year 2018 compared to $(0.12) in fiscal year 2017.

Revenue pro forma for acquisitions grew 7% to $250.2 million.

Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP financial measure that is not pro forma for acquisitions and is defined below) in fiscal year 2018 increased 15% to $78.9 million compared to $68.4 million in fiscal year 2017.

As of October 31, 2018, the Company had $8.6 million of cash and $237.1 million of total debt compared to $6.9 million and $223.7 million, respectively, at October 31, 2017.

Segment Results

U.S. Concrete Pumping 鈥� Brundage-Bone. Revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018 increased 11% to $45.9 million compared to $41.4 million in the year-ago quarter. Fiscal year 2018 revenue increased 9% to $164.3 million compared to $151.2 million in fiscal year 2017. Results were driven by the acquisition of Richard O鈥橞rien companies, positive construction momentum in in the first half of the year, primarily in the West and Central regions, as well as favorable winter conditions in the West region. This was partially offset by adverse weather, mainly in the Texas and Oklahoma markets, in the fourth quarter.

U.K. Concrete Pumping 鈥� Camfaud. Revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018 increased 20% to $13.7 million compared to $11.5 million in the year-ago quarter. Fiscal year 2018 revenue increased 38% to $50.4 million compared to $36.4 million in fiscal year 2017.

Concrete Waste Management Services 鈥� Eco-Pan. Revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018 increased 15% to $7.7 million compared to $6.7 million in the year-ago quarter. Fiscal year 2018 revenue increased 21% to $28.5 million compared to $23.6 million in fiscal year 2017.

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.
