Limbach Holdings Reports Third Quarter 2020 Results

Increasing Adjusted EBITDA Guidance for Fiscal 2020

Conference Call Scheduled for 10:00 am ET on November 12, 2020

PITTSBURGH–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Limbach Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: LMB) (“Limbach” or the “Company”) today announced its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2020. Revenue for the third quarter increased 10.6% from the prior year period to $163.9 million. Gross margin in the quarter was 14.8%, an increase of 235 basis points as compared to the same period during fiscal year 2019. Greater gross profit combined with moderate growth in selling, general and administrative expenses resulted in net income of $2.5 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $8.8 million which reflects Adjusted EBITDA growth of more than twice the prior year period amount. The Company generated strong cash flow, with net cash provided by operating activities of $12.8 million in the quarter.

The following are key financial highlights of the third quarter. All comparisons are to the third quarter of 2019, unless noted otherwise.

  • Construction segment revenue of $130.5 million increased 10.2% driven by growth in the Michigan, Ohio, and New England operating regions, offset by revenue declines in the Florida, Southern California and Eastern Pennsylvania regions. Service segment revenue of $33.4 million increased 12.3%, driven by growth in the Florida, Mid-Atlantic and Western Pennsylvania regions, offset by a revenue decline in the Michigan region.
  • Gross margin increased to 14.8% from 12.4%, primarily as a result of improved project execution in the Construction segment and improved pricing and business mix in the Service segment. Gross margin in the Service segment was 27.9% representing an increase of 360 basis points.
  • SG&A expense in the third quarter increased approximately $0.4 million to $17.0 million as compared to $16.6 million as the Company continued to invest in Service segment and owner-direct sales and execution resources. That growth in SG&A expense was offset by a decline in Construction segment and Corporate SG&A which reflects the continuing effort to identify cost reductions undertaken earlier in the calendar year. As a percent of revenue, SG&A expense was 10.4% as compared to 11.2%.
  • Interest expense was $2.2 million in the third quarter of 2020 as compared to $1.8 million as the Company paid higher interest rates under the Company’s term loan following the execution in the third quarter of 2019 of an amendment to its credit facility.
  • Net income in the third quarter was $2.5 million compared with a net loss of $(3.0) million. Diluted EPS increased to $0.31 as compared to $(0.39).
  • Net cash provided by operating activities was $12.8 million in the third quarter, as compared to net cash used in operating activities of $(1.9) million.
  • Total backlog at September 30, 2020 was $469.3 million as compared to $470.6 million as of June 30, 2020 and $561.2 million as of December 31, 2019. At September 30, 2020, Construction segment backlog accounted for $407.5 million of the consolidated total. Service segment backlog accounted for $61.8 million of the consolidated total.

Charlie Bacon, Limbach’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Overall, we experienced a more normalized operating environment during the third quarter. Our strong performance on a consolidated basis reflected continuing improvement in execution in the Construction segment. We expect that dynamic to continue over the coming quarters as older, lower-margin projects are completed and are replaced with higher margin opportunities that better reflect our enhanced risk management paradigm. We’re pleased with the quality and quantity of the mid-size and large project opportunities we are negotiating and booking into backlog and remain disciplined about project selection. We also generated sequential growth in the Service segment where the impact from COVID-19 had been most significant earlier this year. The velocity we experienced in the Service segment this quarter better reflects what we consider to be a run-rate level of activity, and we’re obviously pleased with the continued expansion in margins.”

Mr. Bacon continued, “We also saw another quarter of cash flow generation and improvement in working capital and liquidity. Our quarter-end cash balance increased 37.4% sequentially to $39.6 million, and we again finished the quarter undrawn on the revolver other than to support certain standby letters of credit. Strengthening the balance sheet has been a core initiative all year and will remain so as we enter the winter season and prepare to confront a number of economic, political and public-health uncertainties. Despite these continued distractions, our employees persevered to generate solid financial and operating performance during the quarter and remain well focused on working safely. Given our performance on a year-to-date basis, we are increasing our Adjusted EBITDA guidance from a range of $22-24 million to a range of $23-26 million. We’re maintaining revenue guidance of $560-600 million. We’re excited to carry this momentum through the balance of the year and into 2021.”

Third Quarter 2020 Summary

Revenue

Third quarter 2020 revenue increased 10.6% to $163.9 million compared to $148.1 million in the prior year period. Revenue for the third quarter of 2019 is “As Recast” to reflect the adoption of ASC Topic 606, which amends the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition and establishes principles for recognizing revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers based on the expected consideration to be received in exchange for those goods or services.

Construction segment of $130.5 million increased 10.2% driven by growth in the Michigan, Ohio and New England operating regions mainly as a result of the start of new projects and the continuation of work on existing projects. These increases were partially offset by revenue decreases in the Florida operating region largely due to project shutdowns due to COVID-19, planned reductions in revenue in the Southern California region and a decrease in revenue in the Eastern Pennsylvania region due to the substantial completion of projects in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the same prior year quarter. Service segment revenue of $33.4 million represented an increase of 12.3% over the third quarter of 2019, driven by growth in the Florida, Mid-Atlantic and Western Pennsylvania regions, offset by a revenue decline in the Michigan region.

Gross Profit

Total gross margin for the quarter was 14.8% as compared to 12.4% in last year’s third quarter. Gross profit for the third quarter of 2019 is “As Recast” to reflect the adoption of ASC Topic 606. In the current period, gross profit in the Construction segment increased by 33.2% driven by higher margins and a reduction in project write-downs. Gross profit in the Service segment increased by 29.0% as a result of more favorable project pricing across most lines of business which remains a key focus area.

Gross profit was negatively impacted by the recognition of net project write-downs of $2.4 million, approximately two-thirds of which are related to previously addressed projects in the Southern California region. That net project adjustment was more favorable than the net project adjustment recognized in the prior year period which also included write-downs on several projects in the Southern California operating region.

SG&A Expense

SG&A expense for the third quarter was $17.0 million compared to $16.6 million in the prior year period. The increase of approximately $0.4 million resulted from an increase of $2.1 million in higher performance-based compensation expense due to the Company’s current year-to-date performance, offset by expense reductions in payroll, travel and entertainment, and other Corporate categories. As a percent of total revenue, SG&A expense for the third quarter declined to 10.4% from 11.2% in the prior year period.

Net Income

Net income was $2.5 million compared to a net loss of $(3.0) million in the prior year period. Net loss for the third quarter of 2019 is “As Recast” to reflect the adoption of ASC Topic 606. Net income per basic and diluted share for the third quarter was $0.32 and $0.31, respectively, compared to a net loss per share of $(0.39) for both basic and diluted for the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter was $8.8 million as compared to $3.8 million in the prior year period, an increase of 130.4%. Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2019 is “As Recast” to reflect the adoption of ASC Topic 606. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily attributable to the increased revenue and gross margins in both the Construction and Service segments during the third quarter of 2020, offset by a moderate increase in SG&A expense.

Backlog and Remaining Performance Obligations

Total backlog at September 30, 2020 was $469.3 million as compared to $561.2 million as of December 31, 2019. At September 30, 2020, Construction segment backlog accounted for $407.5 million of the consolidated total, a decrease of 19.2% as compared to Construction segment backlog at December 31, 2019 of $504.2 million. Service segment backlog accounted for $61.8 million of the consolidated total, an increase of 8.4% as compared to Service segment backlog of $57.0 million at December 31, 2019.

Backlog includes unexercised contract options which are not included in the Company’s remaining performance obligations. At September 30, 2020, remaining performance obligations of the Company’s Construction and Service segment contracts were $407.5 million and $47.6 million, respectively. At December 31, 2019, remaining performance obligations of the Company’s Construction and Service segment contracts were $504.2 million and $41.9 million, respectively.

Balance Sheet

At September 30, 2020, the Company had current assets of $237.7 million and current liabilities of $187.0 million, representing a current ratio of 1.27x. Working capital was $50.7 million at September 30, 2020, an increase of $12.2 million from December 31, 2019. The Company had no borrowings against its $14.0 million revolving credit facility at September 30, 2020, other than for standby letters of credit totaling $3.4 million.

2020 Guidance

The Company announces the following updated guidance for 2020:

 

 

Current

Previous

Revenue

$560 million – $600 million

$560 million – $600 million

Adjusted EBITDA

$23 million – $26 million

$22 million – $24 million

In addition to the risks and uncertainties identified under “Forward-Looking Statements,” the Company’s 2020 guidance is estimated based on the assumption that any impact on the Company in the fourth quarter of the year from a resurgence of COVID-19 is no more extensive or impactful than what Limbach and the construction industry in the United States experienced in the third quarter of fiscal year 2020.

With respect to projected fiscal year 2020 Adjusted EBITDA, a quantitative reconciliation is not available without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability, complexity and low visibility with respect to taxes and other items, which are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA. We expect the variability of this item to have a potentially unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our future financial results.

(1) Starting January 1, 2020, we changed the methodology in which we present our corporate selling, general and administrative expenses to our CODM to better reflect the way the business is managed. Under this new methodology, all corporate expenses except for stock-based compensation are allocated to our Construction and Service segments. For comparability purposes, we reclassified our selling, general and administrative expense segment amounts for the three months ended September 30, 2019 to align with this updated allocation methodology.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In assessing the performance of our business, management utilizes a variety of financial and performance measures. The key measure is Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, and taxes, as further adjusted to eliminate the impact of, when applicable, other non-cash items or expenses that are unusual or non-recurring that we believe do not reflect our core operating results. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is meaningful to our investors to enhance their understanding of our financial performance for the current period and our ability to generate cash flows from operations that are available for taxes, capital expenditures and debt service. We understand that Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties as a measure of financial performance and to compare our performance with the performance of other companies that report Adjusted EBITDA. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, however, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. When assessing our operating performance, investors and others should not consider this data in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss) calculated in accordance with GAAP. Further, the results presented by Adjusted EBITDA cannot be achieved without incurring the costs that the measure excludes. A reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA, the most comparable GAAP measure, is provided below.

We refer to our estimated revenue on uncompleted contracts, including the amount of revenue on contracts for which work has not begun, less the revenue we have recognized under such contracts, as “backlog.” Backlog includes unexercised contract options.
