“Primoris delivered another quarter of record revenue, exceeding $1.5 billion for the quarter, and continued to win new work and grew backlog to a record $6.7 billion,” said Tom McCormick, President and Chief Executive Officer of Primoris. “I want to congratulate our employees for prioritizing safety while performing on our customers’ projects with high quality standards to achieve these results.”
“We continue to experience strong tailwinds across the markets we serve as the demand to meet the growing energy needs and modernize our infrastructure remains high,” he added. “Although some economic uncertainty and challenges persist in the U.S. and elsewhere, we remain diligent in preparing for the future and performing on our projects in the present. This includes attracting, training and developing talent to execute on our backlog and focusing on cost discipline and productivity to generate cash flow to reinvest in our business.”
“As we move forward for the remainder of 2023, we are confident in our ability to achieve our annual financial and operational goals while positioning Primoris for revenue and earnings growth in 2024.”
Third Quarter 2023 Results Overview
Revenue was $1,529.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $245.4 million, or 19.1 percent, compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to strong growth across our renewables, industrial and pipeline businesses, as well as organic growth and contributions from the PLH acquisition in power delivery. Gross profit was $173.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $19.0 million, or 12.3 percent, compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to an increase in revenue and improved margins across several businesses in the Energy segment. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 11.4 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to 12.1 percent for the same period in 2022. The decrease was related to lower Utilities segment margins, partially offset by an increase in margins in our Energy segment.
During the third quarter of 2023, net income was $48.1 million compared to net income of $43.0 million in the prior year. Diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) was $0.89 for the third quarter of 2023 compared to $0.80 for the same period in 2022. The increase in net income and diluted earnings per share from the previous year can be largely attributed to an increase in gross profit, partially offset by higher SG&A to support revenue growth, interest expense and taxes. Adjusted Net Income was $55.2 million for the third quarter, compared to $60.4 million for the same period in 2022. Adjusted diluted EPS was $1.02 for the third quarter of 2023, compared to $1.12 for the third quarter of 2022. The decrease in adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS was due primarily to adjustments related to a higher tax rate in 2023 and increased interest expense, partially offset by increased operating income. Adjusted EBITDA was $120.0 million for the third quarter of 2023, compared to $109.0 million for the same period in 2022.
In the first quarter of 2023, we changed our reportable segments in connection with the realignment of our internal organization and management structure, and now we report in two segments: Utilities and Energy. Revenue and gross profit for the segments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were as follows:

Utilities Segment (“Utilities”): Revenue increased by $31.6 million, or 5.2 percent, for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, primarily due to increased power delivery revenue related to the acquisition of PLH in 2022. Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased by $13.4 million, or 17.2 percent, compared to the same period in 2022. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue decreased to 10.0 percent during the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to 12.7 percent for the same period in 2022. The decrease in gross profit is primarily attributable to productivity issues on certain legacy PLH projects that are nearing completion and an unfavorable revenue mix.
Energy Segment (“Energy”): Revenue increased by $213.7 million, or 31.8 percent, for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, due to increased activity across all businesses, particularly from pipeline, industrial and renewables projects. Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2023, increased by $32.4 million, or 42.1 percent, compared to the same period in 2022, primarily due to higher revenue and margins. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased to 12.3 percent during the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to 11.5 percent in the same period in 2022. The increase in gross margin is primarily due to improvement in pipeline project margins and growth in high margin renewable energy work.
Other Income Statement Information
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $84.4 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $8.7 million, or 11.5 percent, compared to 2022. The increase year-over-year was primarily due to higher incentive compensation costs associated with improved operational performance and an increase in headcount to support revenue growth. SG&A expense as a percentage of revenue decreased to 5.5 percent in the third quarter of 2023, compared to 5.9 percent in the third quarter 2022, primarily due to increased revenue.
Interest expense, net for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 was $21.1 million compared to $13.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. The increase of $8.0 million was due to higher average debt balances and higher average interest rates. Interest expense for the full year 2023 is expected to be at the high end of the $73 to $77 million guidance range.
The effective tax rate on income for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 of 29.0% differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state income taxes and nondeductible components of per diem expenses. We recorded income tax expense for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 of $36.1 million compared to $22.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. The $13.8 million increase in income tax expense is primarily driven by both a higher pretax income and a higher effective tax rate in 2023.
Outlook
The Company is reaffirming its estimates for the year ending December 31, 2023. Net income is expected to be between $2.15 and $2.35 per fully diluted share. Adjusted EPS is estimated in the range of $2.60 to $2.80 for 2023. Adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2023 is expected to range from $360 million to $380 million.
The Company is targeting SG&A expense as a percentage of revenue in the high five to low six percent range for full year 2023. The Company’s targeted gross margins by segment are as follows: Utilities in the range of 9 to 11 percent and Energy in the range of 10 to 12 percent. The Company expects its effective tax rate for 2023 to be approximately 29 percent, but it may vary depending on the mix of states in which the Company operates.
Adjusted EPS and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. Please refer to “Non-GAAP Measures” and Schedules 1-4 below for the definitions and reconciliations. The guidance provided above constitutes forward-looking statements, which are based on current economic conditions and estimates, and the Company does not include other potential impacts, such as changes in accounting or unusual items. Supplemental information relating to the Company’s financial outlook is posted in the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website at www.prim.com.

At September 30, 2023, Fixed Backlog was $4.6 billion, up nearly $0.1 billion compared to our backlog at June 30, 2023 and up $1.1 billion from December 31, 2022. MSA Backlog was $2.1 billion, mostly flat compared June 30, 2023 and up $0.2 billion from December 31, 2022. MSA Backlog represents estimated MSA revenue for the next four quarters. Total Backlog as of September 30, 2023 was $6.7 billion, which represented a new record for the Company. The Company expects that during the next four quarters, the Company will recognize as revenue approximately 69 percent of the total backlog at September 30, 2023, comprised of backlog of approximately: 100 percent of the Utilities segment and 56 percent of the Energy segment.
Backlog, including estimated MSA revenue, should not be considered a comprehensive indicator of future revenue. Revenue from certain projects where scope, and therefore contract value, is not adequately defined, is not included in Fixed Backlog. At any time, any project may be cancelled at the convenience of the Company’s customers.
Balance Sheet and Capital Allocation
At September 30, 2023, the Company had $160.7 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents.

Non-GAAP Measures
This press release contains certain financial measures that are not recognized under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Primoris uses earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted EPS as important supplemental measures of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes these measures enable investors, analysts, and management to evaluate Primoris’ performance excluding the effects of certain items that management believes impact the comparability of operating results between reporting periods. In addition, management believes these measures are useful in comparing the Company’s operating results with those of its competitors. The non-GAAP measures presented in this press release are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, Primoris’ method of calculating these measures may be different from methods used by other companies, and, accordingly, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures as calculated by other companies that do not use the same methodology as Primoris. Please see the accompanying tables to this press release for reconciliations of the following non‐GAAP financial measures for Primoris’ current and historical results: EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS.

Schedule 1
|
||||||||||||||||
Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS |
||||||||||||||||
Primoris defines Adjusted Net Income as net income (loss) adjusted for certain items including, (i) non‐cash stock‐based compensation expense; (ii) transaction/integration and related costs; (iii) asset impairment charges; (iv) changes in fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap; (v) change in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities; (vi) amortization of intangible assets; (vii) amortization of debt discounts and debt issuance costs; (viii) losses on extinguishment of debt; (ix) severance and restructuring changes; (x) selected (gains) charges that are unusual or non-recurring; and (xi) impact of changes in statutory tax rates. The Company defines Adjusted EPS as Adjusted Net Income divided by the diluted weighted average shares outstanding. Management believes these adjustments are helpful for comparing the Company’s operating performance with prior periods. Because Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS, as defined, exclude some, but not all, items that affect net income and diluted earnings per share, they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. The most comparable GAAP financial measures, net income and diluted earnings per share, and information reconciling the GAAP and non‐GAAP financial measures, are included in the table below. |

|
||||||||||||||
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA |
||||||||||||||
Primoris defines EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted for certain items including, (i) non‐cash stock‐based compensation expense; (ii) transaction/integration and related costs; (iii) asset impairment charges; (iv) severance and restructuring changes; (v) change in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities; and (vi) selected (gains) charges that are unusual or non-recurring. The Company believes the EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA financial measures assist in providing a more complete understanding of the Company’s underlying operational measures to manage its business, to evaluate its performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace, and to establish operational goals. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non‐GAAP financial measures and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP. These non‐GAAP financial measures may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies. The most comparable GAAP financial measure, net income, and information reconciling the GAAP and non‐GAAP financial measures are included in the table below. |

Adjustments above are reported on a pre-tax basis before the income tax impact of adjustments. The income tax impact for each adjustment is determined by calculating the tax impact of the adjustment on the Company's quarterly and annual effective tax rate, as applicable, unless the nature of the item and/or the tax jurisdiction in which the item has been recorded requires application of a specific tax rate or tax treatment, in which case the tax effect of such item is estimated by applying such specific tax rate or tax treatment. |
