Conference Call Scheduled for 9:00 am ET on November 10, 2022

WARRENDALE, Pa.--()--Limbach Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: LMB) today announced its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. The Company reported consolidated revenue of $122.4 million, compared with $129.2 million during the third quarter of 2021. ODR segment revenue accounted for 48.8% of consolidated revenue in the third quarter of 2022, up from 30.4% in the comparable period, and increased 52.2% over the third quarter of 2021, while contributing approximately 61.2% of consolidated gross profit. GCR segment revenue of $62.7 million was down $27.3 million, or 30.3% as the Company continues to focus on its risk management strategy and improved gross profit. Consolidated gross margin improved to 20.3% from 18.9% for the third quarter of 2021, and gross profit increased to $24.9 million from $24.5 million. Net income was $3.6 million as compared to $4.0 million in the third quarter of 2021. Adjusted EBITDA was $10.2 million, up 25.7% from $8.1 million in the third quarter of 2021.

Charlie Bacon, Limbach’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We had a solid third quarter as the evolution of our business to an ODR-centric strategy continued at an accelerated pace. The diversity of our business, along with the essential nature of the services we provide, has us well-positioned for the current environment. Building owners continue to prioritize service, maintenance and repairs of existing equipment in mission critical building systems in response to ongoing global supply chain issues. As the supply chain issues ease, and new equipment becomes readily available, we expect to see a demand in replacements of aged out equipment.”

Mr. Bacon continued, “Consolidated gross margin of 20.3% is a record for Limbach and demonstrates our ability to execute at industry-leading levels. Coupling this solid field execution with a sharp focus on billing and working capital management enabled us to deliver strong operating cash flow of $10.8 million during the quarter. This brings our year-to-date operating cash flow to $23 million, allowing us to focus on reducing our debt without negatively impacting our ability to internally fund potential acquisitions.”

Mr. Bacon concluded, “We are on track to achieve our financial guidance for the year, including an upward revision to our Adjusted EBITDA range. Our performance is testament to our solid execution of the strategic plan we put in place in 2019, including effective risk management policies. We look forward to concluding the year with solid momentum on which we can build on our financial performance and cash flow generation in 2023.”

The following are results for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021:

  • Consolidated revenue was $122.4 million, a decrease of 5.3% from $129.2 million. ODR segment revenue of $59.7 million increased by $20.5 million, or 52.2%, while GCR segment revenue of $62.7 million was down $27.3 million, or 30.3%. The Company continued its strategic focus on expanding the ODR segment’s contribution to the business and improving GCR project execution and profitability by pursuing GCR opportunities that were smaller in size, shorter in duration, and where the Company can leverage its captive design and engineering services.
  • Gross margin increased to 20.3%, up from 18.9%. On a dollar basis, total gross profit was $24.9 million, compared to $24.5 million. GCR gross profit decreased $3.1 million, or 24.4%, largely reflecting lower revenue at a higher margin. GCR gross margin improved to 15.4% from 14.2%. ODR gross profit increased $3.5 million, or 29.9%, due to an increase in revenue, despite a lower margin of 25.5%, versus 29.8%, driven by project mix and timing in the third quarter of 2021.
  • Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $0.4 million, to $18.7 million, compared to $18.3 million. This increase included costs incurred by the newly acquired Jake Marshall entities, partially offset by a decrease in payroll and rent related expenses. As a percent of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses were 15.3%, up from 14.2% in the second quarter of 2021.
  • Interest expense, net, increased by approximately $0.1 million, to $0.5 million, compared to $0.4 million. The increase was driven by increased interest rates on the Company's variable rate debt. During the third quarter of 2022, the Company entered into an interest rate swap contract to hedge its exposure to interest rate risk on a portion of its variable rate borrowings under its term loan facility. The Company recorded a $0.3 million gain on the change in fair value of its interest rate swap during the period.
  • Net income for the third quarter of 2022 was $3.6 million as compared to $4.0 million in the third quarter of 2021. Diluted income per share was $0.34 as compared to $0.38. Both net income and diluted earnings per share were impacted by certain restructuring charges and other costs that are not included in the prior periods as outlined in the Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA table.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $10.2 million for the third quarter of 2022 as compared to $8.1 million for the same period of 2021, an increase of 25.7%. Adjusted EBITDA for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022 include adjustments for certain restructuring and other costs that are not included in the prior periods.
  • Net cash provided by operating activities was $10.4 million for the third quarter of 2022 as compared to $7.8 million for the same period of 2021. The increase in operating cash flows was primarily attributable to an increase in our overbilled position as of September 30, 2022 and timing of payments.

Balance Sheet and Backlog

At September 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $28.5 million. We had current assets of $209.3 million and current liabilities of $146.0 million at September 30, 2022, representing a current ratio of 1.43x compared to 1.49x at December 31, 2021. Working capital was $63.3 million at September 30, 2022, an increase of $0.1 million from December 31, 2021. At September 30, 2022, we had no borrowings against our revolving credit facility and $3.3 million for standby letters of credit, and carried a term loan balance of $23.3 million. During the quarter, we made $2.4 million of required principal payments on our term loan which reduced our outstanding balance.

Total backlog at September 30, 2022 was $457.3 million as compared to $435.2 million as of December 31, 2021. At September 30, 2022, GCR and ODR segment backlog accounted for $332.8 million and $124.5 million of that consolidated total, respectively. At December 31, 2021, GCR and ODR segment backlog accounted for $337.2 million and $98.0 million of that consolidated total, respectively.

Common Stock Repurchase Program

As previously announced on September 30, 2022, the Company authorized a share repurchase program in an effort to return value to its stockholders. Under this program, the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $2.0 million of its outstanding common stock. The share repurchase authority is valid for one-year through September 29, 2023.

2022 Guidance

We tightened revenue guidance and increased Adjusted EBITDA guidance for FY 2022 as follows:

 

Current

 

Previous

Revenue

$510 million - $530 million

 

$510 million - $540 million

Adjusted EBITDA

$27 million - $30 million

 

$25 million - $29 million

With respect to projected 2022 Adjusted EBITDA, a quantitative reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort 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 future GAAP financial results.

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 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 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 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.
