Management Commentary

"In the fourth quarter, continued double-digit organic growth in our U.S. Concrete Waste Management business was offset by volume-driven declines in our U.S. Concrete Pumping segment," said Bruce Young, CEO of CPH. "In particular, lingering high interest rates, coupled with increased commercial building vacancy rates, affected the start of new construction projects. Conversely, our Concrete Waste Management business sustained its robust growth, fueled by strong market share expansion and our ability to improve pricing. We anticipate this positive momentum will continue."

"Despite the challenges in the U.S. pumping market, our disciplined fleet management strategy enabled us to improve Adjusted EBITDA margins and generate robust free cash flow in the fourth quarter. On an annual basis, a $10.7 million reduction in equipment expenditures, coupled with strong proceeds from the sale of equipment, resulted in a 5% increase in free cash flow compared to last year, allowing us to further reduce our leverage. This flexible capital investment strategy, combined with our robust unit economics and strengthening balance sheet, including expanding liquidity from $216.7 million to $378.0 million during the year, positions us well for a market recovery and to drive shareholder value in fiscal 2025 and beyond."

_____________1 Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, net debt and leverage ratio are financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for a discussion of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this release and a reconciliation to their most comparable GAAP measures.

Fourth Quarter Fiscal Year 2024 Financial Results

Revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 was $111.5 million compared to $120.2 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023. The decrease was mostly attributable to a volume decline in the Company’s U.S. Concrete Pumping segment due to a slowdown in commercial construction volume, mostly due to restrictive monetary policy in the U.S. and the associated impact from persistently higher interest rates and increased commercial building vacancy rates, coupled with an oversaturation of concrete pumps in certain markets. This was partially offset by continued strong growth in the Concrete Waste Management Services segment.

Gross profit in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 was $46.2 million compared to $48.9 million in the prior year quarter. Gross margin improved 80 basis points to 41.5% compared to 40.7% in the prior year quarter. The increase in gross margin was primarily related to continued improvement in the Company's cost control initiatives that delivered improved labor and fuel costs.

General and administrative expenses in the fourth quarter improved 9% to $27.0 million compared to $29.6 million in the prior year quarter primarily due to non-cash increases in currency gains due to exchange rate movements of $1.2 million, reduced amortization expense of $0.9 million and lower stock-based compensation expense of $0.2 million. As a percentage of revenue, G&A costs improved to 24.2% in the fourth quarter compared to 24.6% in the prior year quarter.

Net income in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 was $9.4 million, unchanged compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023. Net income attributable to common shareholders in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 was $9.0 million, unchanged compared to the prior year quarter. Diluted earnings per share was unchanged versus the prior year quarter at $0.16.

Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 was $33.7 million compared to $35.8 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 30.2% compared to 29.8% in the prior year quarter.

Fiscal Year 2024 Financial Results

Revenue in fiscal year 2024 was $425.9 million compared to $442.2 million in fiscal year 2023. The decrease was attributable to a general slowdown in commercial construction volume, mostly due to restrictive monetary policy in the U.S. and the associated impact from persistently higher interest rates, an oversaturation of concrete pumps in certain markets and significant weather events across many of the Company's markets throughout the year. This was partially offset by continued strong growth in the Concrete Waste Management Services segment.

Gross profit in fiscal year 2024 was $165.8 million compared to $178.3 million in fiscal year 2023. Gross margin was 38.9% versus 40.3% in the prior year. The slight decrease was primarily related to decreased labor efficiencies caused by the reduced revenue in the Company's U.S. Concrete Pumping segment and inflationary increases in commercial insurance premium costs. These amounts were partially offset by improved fuel expense and lower repair and maintenance costs.

G&A expenses in fiscal year 2024 were $116.5 million compared to $116.9 million in fiscal year 2023. The slight decrease in G&A expenses was due primarily to non-cash decreases in amortization expense of $3.8 million and stock-based compensation expense of $1.5 million, increases in currency gains of $0.6 million due to exchange rate movements and a cash decrease of $0.7 million in other G&A expense amounts. These decreases in G&A expense were almost completely offset by a non-recurring tax charge of $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2024 and higher labor and health insurance premiums of approximately $2.9 million as a result of wage inflation. G&A expenses as a percentage of revenue were 27.4% for fiscal 2024 compared to 26.4% for fiscal 2023.

Net income attributable to common shareholders in fiscal year 2024 was $14.5 million compared $30.0 million in fiscal year 2023. Diluted earnings per share was $0.26 per diluted share compared to $0.54 per diluted share in fiscal year 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA in fiscal year 2024 was $112.1 million compared to $124.6 million in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 26.3% compared to 28.2% in the prior year.

Liquidity

On October 31, 2024, the Company had debt outstanding of $375.0 million, net debt of $332.0 million and total available liquidity of $378.0 million. Compared to the prior year, this equates to a $46.1 million reduction in net debt and an increase of $161.3 million in total liquidity.

Segment Results

U.S. Concrete Pumping. Revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 was $74.5 million compared to $85.0 million in the prior year quarter. The decline was driven by the aforementioned slowdown in commercial construction volume. Net income in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 was $2.0 million compared to $2.6 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $19.3 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 compared to $23.4 million in the prior year quarter. These decreases were largely driven by the revenue decline.

Revenue in fiscal year 2024 was $291.0 million compared to $317.9 million in fiscal year 2023. The decline was driven by a series of extreme weather events in the first three quarters of 2024, the aforementioned slowdown in commercial construction volume, mostly due to the impact from high interest rates and increased commercial building vacancy rates, and an oversaturation of concrete pumps in certain markets, which negatively impacted industry-wide utilization. Net loss was $2.3 million in fiscal year 2024 compared to net income of $6.4 million in fiscal year 2023. Adjusted EBITDA in fiscal year 2024 was $67.4 million compared to $82.1 million in fiscal year 2023. The decrease in net income was primarily attributable to lower revenue volumes, decreased labor efficiencies driven by the reduced revenue, inflationary increases in commercial and health insurance, a non-recurring tax charge of $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2024 and increased depreciation expense. Apart from the non-recurring tax charge of $3.5 million and the increase in depreciation expense, the change in adjusted EBITDA was impacted by the same factors as net income.

U.K. Operations. Revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 was $17.1 million compared to $17.4 million in the prior year quarter. Excluding the impact from foreign currency translation, revenue was 6% lower year-over-year, due primarily to volume declines as a result of continued delays on project start dates that offset pricing improvements. Net income in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 was $1.7 million, unchanged compared to the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA increased 18% to $5.2 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 compared to $4.4 million in the prior year quarter. Excluding the impact from foreign currency translation, net income was slightly down due to the decline in revenue as discussed above and adjusted EBITDA was unchanged compared to the prior year period.

Revenue in fiscal year 2024 increased 2% to $64.0 million compared to $62.6 million in fiscal year 2023. Excluding the impact from foreign currency translation, revenue declined 1% year-over-year. The decrease was primarily attributable to volume declines as a result of continued delays on project start dates and awards that slightly offset pricing improvements. Net income for fiscal year 2024 was $4.2 million, unchanged compared to fiscal year 2023. Adjusted EBITDA in fiscal year 2024 increased 9% to $16.8 million compared to $15.4 million in fiscal year 2023. Excluding the impact from foreign currency translation, net income decreased slightly due to the decreased revenue discussed above and an increase in income tax expense which were partially offset by improvements in fuel and repair costs. Excluding the impact from foreign currency translation, adjusted EBITDA increased slightly due to the items discussed above except for income tax expense, which is excluded from the adjusted EBITDA calculation.

U.S. Concrete Waste Management Services. Revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 increased 11% to $19.8 million compared to $17.8 million in the prior year quarter. The increase was driven by robust organic volume growth and pricing improvements. Net income in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 increased 19% to $5.7 million compared to $4.8 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 increased 12% to $9.1 million compared to $8.1 million in the prior year quarter. Increases for both net income and adjusted EBITDA are mostly due to increases in revenue as discussed above.

Revenue in fiscal year 2024 increased 15% to $70.9 million compared to $61.8 million in fiscal year 2023, driven by robust organic volume growth, pricing improvements, and the market share expansion of concrete waste management service offerings. Net income was $14.2 million in fiscal year 2024 compared to $14.3 million in fiscal year 2023. Adjusted EBITDA in fiscal year 2024 increased 3% to $28.0 million compared to $27.1 million in fiscal year 2023. The slight decrease in net income was primarily due to increased depreciation expense, almost entirely offset by the increased revenue as described above. Adjusted EBITDA increased due to the items discussed above except for depreciation expense, which is excluded from the adjusted EBITDA calculation.

Fiscal Year 2025 Outlook

The Company expects fiscal year 2025 revenue to range between $425.0 million to $445.0 million, Adjusted EBITDA to range between $115.0 million to $125.0 million, and free cash flow2 to be at least $65.0 million.

_____________2 Free cash flow is defined as Adjusted EBITDA less net replacement capital expenditures and cash paid for interest.

Forward‐Looking Statements

This press release includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company’s 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 "expect," "estimate," "project," "budget," "forecast," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "may," "will," "could," "should," "believes," "predicts," "potential," "continue," "outlook" and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, the Company’s expectations with respect to future performance, including the Company's fiscal year 2025 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’s 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 on our business; adverse weather conditions; the outcome of any legal proceedings, rulings 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 identify and 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’s 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. 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.

EBITDA is calculated by taking GAAP net income and adding back interest expense and amortization of deferred financing costs, net of interest income, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by taking EBITDA and adding back stock-based compensation, changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities, other expense (income), net, and other adjustments, including non-recurring expenses, non-cash currency gains/losses and transaction expenses. Transaction expenses represent expenses for legal, accounting, and other professionals that were engaged in the completion of various acquisitions. Transaction expenses can be volatile as they are primarily driven by the size of a specific acquisition. As such, the Company excludes these amounts from Adjusted EBITDA for comparability across periods.

The Company believes these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful supplemental information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends related to our financial condition and results of operations, and as a supplemental 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 and annual financial reports and presentations prepared for management, our board of directors and investors, 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. These non-GAAP measures exclude certain cash expenses that the Company is 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. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue for the period presented. See "Reconciliation of Historical Adjusted EBITDA" below for a reconciliation of the differences between EBITDA and 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’s 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’s 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’s leverage and evaluate the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. See "Reconciliation of Net Debt" below for a reconciliation of Net Debt to amounts outstanding under debt agreements calculated in accordance with GAAP.

The leverage ratio is defined as the ratio of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing four quarters. The Company believes its leverage ratio measures its ability to service its debt and its ability to make capital expenditures. Additionally, the leverage ratio is a standard measurement used by investors to gauge the creditworthiness of an institution.

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 EBITDA, 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 tax expense and depreciation and amortization.

Current and prospective investors should review the Company’s 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’s business. Other companies may calculate EBITDA, 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.

Segment Adjusted EBITDA and Net Income (Loss)

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2024, the Company moved certain assets and associated revenues and expenses, which were previously categorized in the Company's Other activities, into the U.S. Concrete Pumping segment in order to appropriately align its placement with the manner in which the Company allocates its resources and measures performance. As a result, segment results for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. In addition, in order to distribute the use of corporate resources and appropriately align measures with segment performance, beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2024, the Company is no longer adding back intercompany allocations to segment Adjusted EBITDA. The Company recast of segment results for the three and twelve months ended October 31, 2023 is included below:
