Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. 

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

 
 i 

Note 1. Organization and Description of Business

 

Organization

 

Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation headquartered in Thornton, Colorado. The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries including Brundage-Bone Concrete Pumping, Inc. (“Brundage-Bone”), Capital Pumping (“Capital”), Camfaud Group Limited (“Camfaud”) and Eco-Pan, Inc. (“Eco-Pan”).

 

Nature of business

 

Brundage-Bone and Capital are concrete pumping service providers in the United States ("U.S.") and Camfaud is a concrete pumping service provider in the United Kingdom (“U.K.”). Their core business is the provision of concrete pumping services to general contractors and concrete finishing companies in the commercial, infrastructure and residential sectors. Most often equipment returns to a “home base” nightly and these service providers do not contract to purchase, mix, or deliver concrete. Brundage-Bone and Capital collectively have approximately 100 branch locations across approximately  i 21 states, with its corporate headquarters in Thornton, Colorado. Camfaud has approximately  i 30 branch locations throughout the U.K., with its corporate headquarters in Epping (near London), England.

 

Eco-Pan provides industrial cleanup and containment services, primarily to customers in the construction industry. Eco-Pan uses containment pans specifically designed to hold waste products from concrete and other industrial cleanup operations. Eco-Pan has  i 20 operating locations across the U.S. with its corporate headquarters in Thornton, Colorado. In addition, we have concrete waste management operations under our Eco-Pan brand name in the U.K. and currently operate from a shared Camfaud location.

 

Seasonality

 

The Company’s sales are historically seasonal, with lower revenue in the first quarter and higher revenue in the fourth quarter of each year. Such seasonality also causes the Company’s working capital cash flow requirements to vary from quarter to quarter and primarily depends on the variability of weather patterns with the Company generally having lower sales volume during the winter and spring months.

 i 

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

We describe our significant accounting policies in Note 2 of the notes to consolidated financial statements in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2023 ("Annual Report"). During the three months ended January 31, 2024, there were no changes to those accounting policies.

 

 i 

Basis of presentation

 

Our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of October 31, 2023, which was derived from our audited consolidated financial statements and our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements provided herein have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The enclosed statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present a fair statement of the interim periods. The consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the first three months of the year are not necessarily indicative of the consolidated results of operations and cash flows that might be expected for the entire year. These condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2023.

 

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified in order to conform to the current year presentation.

 

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2024, certain assets and associated revenues and expenses previously part of the Company's Other activities has now been aggregated into its U.S. Concrete Pumping segment in order to better align its placement with the manner in which the Company now allocates resources and measures performance. As a result, segment results for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. For further discussion, see Note 18.

 i 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

 i 

Revenue recognition

 

The Company generates revenues primarily from (1) concrete pumping services in both the U.S. and U.K and (2) the Company’s concrete waste services business, both of which are discussed below. In addition, the Company generates an immaterial amount of revenue from the sales of replacement parts to customers. The Company’s delivery terms for replacement part sales are FOB shipping point. Revenue is disaggregated between two accounting standards: (1) ASC 606, Revenue Recognition ("ASC 606") and (2) ASC 842, Leases ("ASC 842").

 

Leases as Lessor

 

Our Eco-Pan business involves contracts with customers whereby we are a lessor for the rental component of the contract and therefore, such rental components of the contract are recorded as lease revenue. We account for such rental contracts as operating leases. We recognize revenue from pan rentals in the period earned, regardless of the timing of billing to customers. The lease component of the revenue is disaggregated by a base price that is based on the number of contractual days and a variable component that is based on days in excess of the number of contractual days.

 

The table below summarizes our revenues as presented in our unaudited consolidated statements of operations for the periods ended  January 31, 2024 and 2023 by revenue type:

Receivables and contract assets and liabilities

 

Receivables are carried at the original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts. Generally, the Company does not require collateral for their accounts receivable; however, the Company may file statutory liens or take other appropriate legal action when necessary on construction projects in which collection problems arise. A receivable is typically considered to be past due if any portion of the receivable balance is outstanding for more than 30 days. The Company does not typically charge interest on past-due receivables.

 

Pursuant to CECL (defined below), Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by identifying troubled accounts and by using historical experience applied to an aging of accounts, Management’s understanding of the current economic circumstances within the Company’s industry, reasonable and supportable forecasts and Management’s judgment as to the likelihood of ultimate payment based upon available data. Receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded when received. Our estimate of doubtful accounts could change based on changing circumstances, including changes in the economy or in particular circumstances of individual customers.  Accordingly, the Company may be required to increase or decrease the allowance for doubtful accounts.

 

The Company does not have contract liabilities associated with contracts with customers. The Company’s contract assets and impairment losses associated therewith are not significant. Contracts with customers do not result in amounts billed to customers in excess of recognizable revenue.

 

 i 

Newly adopted accounting pronouncements

 

ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments Credit Losses (Topic 326) (“ASU 2016-13”) - In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, which, along with subsequently issued related ASUs, requires financial assets (or groups of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, among other provisions (known as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model). Under the new guidance, the Company recognizes an allowance for its estimate of expected credit losses over the entire contractual term of its receivables from the date of initial recognition of the financial instrument. Measurement of expected credit losses are based on relevant forecasts that affect collectability. The Company’s receivables are in scope for CECL. At the point that these receivables are recorded, they become subject to the CECL model and estimates of expected credit losses over their contractual life are recorded at inception based on historical information, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This ASU is effective for smaller reporting companies with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted CECL as of November 1, 2023 for fiscal year ending October 31, 2024. The adoption of CECL did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures or the existing internal controls because the Company’s accounts receivable are of short duration and there is not a material difference between incurred losses and expected losses.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet effective

 

ASU 2023-07, Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”) - In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, which improves reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. In addition, the amendments enhance interim disclosure requirements, clarify circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, provide new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, and contain other disclosure requirements. The purpose of the amendments is to enable investors to better understand an entity’s overall performance and assess potential future cash flows. This ASU is effective for public companies with annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within annual period beginning after December 15, 2024with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”) - In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, which requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The standard is intended to benefit investors by providing more detailed income tax disclosures that would be useful in making capital allocation decisions. This ASU is effective for public companies with annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 3. Fair Value Measurement 

 

The carrying amounts of the Company's cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and current accrued liabilities approximate their fair value as recorded due to the short-term maturity of these instruments, which approximates fair value. The Company’s outstanding obligations on its asset-backed loan ("ABL") credit facility are deemed to be at fair value as the interest rates on these debt obligations are variable and consistent with prevailing rates. There were no changes since October 31, 2023 in the Company's valuation techniques used to measure fair value.

 

Long-term debt instruments

 

The Company's long-term debt instruments are recorded at their carrying values in the consolidated balance sheet, which may differ from their respective fair values. The fair values of the long-term debt instruments are derived from Level 2 inputs.  The fair value amount of the long-term debt instruments as of  January 31, 2024 and October 31, 2023 is presented in the table below based on the prevailing interest rates and trading activity of the Senior Notes.

All other non-financial assets

 

The Company's non-financial assets, which primarily consist of property and equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets, are not required to be carried at fair value on a recurring basis and are reported at carrying value. However, on a periodic basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be fully recoverable (and at least annually for goodwill and indefinite lived intangibles), non-financial instruments are assessed for impairment and, if applicable, written down to and recorded at fair value.

On January 28, 2021, Brundage-Bone Concrete Pumping Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (i) completed a private offering of $ i 375.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its  i 6.000% senior secured second lien notes due 2026 (the “Senior Notes”) issued pursuant to an indenture, among the Issuer, the Company, the other Guarantors (as defined below), Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee and as collateral agent (the "Indenture") and (ii) entered into an amended and restated ABL Facility (as subsequently amended, the "ABL Facility") by and among the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as agent, sole lead arranger and sole bookrunner, the other lenders party thereto, which provided up to $ i 125.0 million of asset-based revolving loan commitments to the Company and the other borrowers under the ABL Facility. The Senior Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed on a senior secured basis by the Company, Concrete Pumping Intermediate Acquisition Corp. and each of the Issuer’s domestic, wholly-owned subsidiaries that is a borrower or a guarantor under the ABL Facility (collectively, the "Guarantors").

 

On June 1, 2023, the ABL Facility was amended to, among other changes, (1) increase the maximum revolver borrowings available to be drawn thereunder to $ i 225.0 million, (2) increase the letter of credit sublimit to $ i 22.5 million and (3) extend the maturity of the ABL Facility to the earlier of (a) June 1, 2028 or (b) the date that is 180 days prior to (i) the final stated maturity date of the Senior Notes or (ii) the date the Senior Notes become due and payable. The ABL Facility also provides for an uncommitted accordion feature under which the borrowers under the ABL Facility can, subject to specified conditions, increase the ABL Facility by up to an additional $ i 75.0 million. The amended ABL Facility was treated as a debt modification. The Company capitalized an additional $ i 0.5 million of debt issuance costs related to the June 1, 2023, ABL Facility amendment. The preexisting unamortized deferred costs of $ i 1.4 million and the additional costs of $ i 0.5 million will be amortized from June 1, 2023 through June 1, 2028.

 

The outstanding principal amount of the Senior Notes as of January 31, 2024 was $ i 375.0 million and as of that date, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Indenture.

The outstanding balance under the ABL Facility as of  January 31, 2024 was $ i 13.0 million and as of that date, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants. Borrowings are generally in the form of short-term fixed rate loans that can be extended to mature on the earlier of (a) June 1, 2028 or (b) the date that is 180 days prior to (i) the final stated maturity date of the Senior Notes or (ii) the date the Senior Notes become due and payable. Amounts borrowed may be repaid at any time, subject to the terms and conditions of the agreement.

 

The Company utilizes the ABL Facility to support its working capital arrangement.

 

In addition, as of January 31, 2024 the Company had $ i 1.1 million in credit line reserves and a letter of credit balance of $ i 8.5 million.

 

As of January 31, 2024 we had $ i 202.3 million of available borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility. Debt issuance costs related to revolving credit facilities are capitalized and reflected as an asset in deferred financing costs in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company had debt issuance costs related to the revolving credit facilities of $ i 1.7 million as of January 31, 2024.

 

As of  January 31, 2024 and October 31, 2023, the weighted average interest rate for borrowings under the ABL Facility was  i 7.1% and  i 7.9% respectively.

Insurance

 

Commercial Self-Insured Losses

 

The Company retains a significant portion of the risk for workers' compensation, automobile, and general liability losses (“self-insured commercial liability”). Reserves have been recorded that reflect the undiscounted estimated liabilities including claims incurred but not reported. When a recognized liability is covered by third-party insurance, the Company records an insurance claim receivable to reflect the covered liability. Amounts estimated to be paid within one year have been included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities, with the remainder included in Other liabilities, non-current on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Insurance claims receivables that are expected to be received from third-party insurance within one year have been included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets, with the remainder included in Other non-current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

The following table summarizes as of  January 31, 2024 and  October 31, 2023 for (1) recorded liabilities, related to both asserted as well as unasserted insurance claims and (2) any related insurance claims receivables.

Medical Self-Insured Losses

 

The Company offers employee health benefits via a partially self-insured medical benefit plan. Participant claims exceeding certain limits are covered by a stop-loss insurance policy. The Company contracts with a third-party administrator for tasks including, but not limited to, processing claims and remitting benefits. As of  January 31, 2024 and  October 31, 2023, the Company had accrued $ i 1.4 million and $ i 1.2 million, respectively, for estimated health claims incurred but not reported based on historical claims amounts and average lag time. These accruals are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company contracts with a third-party administrator to process claims, remit benefits, etc. The third-party administrator required the Company to maintain a bank account to facilitate the administration of claims.

 

Litigation

 

The Company is currently involved in certain legal proceedings and other disputes with third parties that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. Management believes that the outcomes of these matters will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and does not believe that any amounts need to be recorded for contingent liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

 

Washington Department of Revenue Sales Tax Issue

 

Historically, the Company has not charged sales tax to its state of Washington customers that provide a reseller certificate, treating this as a wholesale transaction rather than as a retail sale. Effective April 1, 2020, the state of Washington Department of Revenue (“DOR”) published a rule which amended Washington Administrative Code 458-20-211, otherwise known as Rule 211, by designating sales of stand-alone concrete pumping services as solely retail transactions. The Company believes the DOR improperly amended Rule 211 and is strongly defending this position. As such, for the period from April 1, 2020 through January 31, 2024, the Company did not charge sales tax where its customers provide a reseller certificate and petitioned for declaratory relief from the rule.

 

In February 2023, the Company received an adverse ruling from the Thurston County superior court regarding its position, which it has appealed. In February 2024, oral arguments were heard in the Court of Appeals in Tacoma and the Company received an unfavorable judgement during the same month. As of October 31, 2023, no liability had been recorded in connection with this contingency as a loss was not deemed probable at that time. However, as a result of the unfavorable judgment in February 2024, the Company has concluded the loss is now probable and therefore has recorded a loss of $ i 3.5 million in the quarter ended January 31, 2024. The loss is included in general and administrative expenses in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. During the quarter ended January 31, 2024, the Company made a payment of $ i 1.8 million to the DOR. Beginning with the second quarter of fiscal year 2024, the Company started assessing sales tax related to its customers in the state of Washington.

 

Letters of credit

 

The ABL Facility provides for up to $ i 22.5 million of standby letters of credit. As of January 31, 2024, total outstanding letters of credit totaled $ i 8.5 million, the vast majority of which had been committed to the Company’s general liability insurance provider.

Share Repurchase Program

 

In March 2024, the board of directors of the Company approved a $ i 15.0 million increase to the Company’s share repurchase program. This authorization will expire on March 31, 2025 and is in addition to the repurchase authorization of up to $ i 10.0 million to expire March 31, 2025 that was previously approved in January 2023. In January 2023, the board of directors of the Company approved a $ i 10.0 million increase to the Company’s share repurchase program that was set to expire on March 31, 2024. On January 4, 2024, the board of directors approved an extension of this authorization through March 31, 2025This is in addition to the repurchase authorization of up to $ i 10.0 million through June 15, 2023, that was previously approved in June 2022. The repurchase program permits shares to be repurchased in the open market, by block purchase, in privately negotiated transactions, in one or more transactions from time to time, or pursuant to any trading plan adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”). Open market purchases will be conducted in accordance with the limitations set forth in Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act and other applicable legal and regulatory requirements. The repurchase program may be suspended, terminated, extended or otherwise modified by the Board without notice at any time for any reason, including, without limitation, market conditions, the cost of repurchasing shares, the availability of alternative investment opportunities, capital and liquidity objectives, and other factors deemed appropriate by the Company's management.

Note 18. Segment Reporting

 

The Company’s revenues are derived from  i three reportable segments: U.S. Concrete Pumping, U.K. Operations and U.S. Concrete Waste Management Services. Any differences between segment reporting and consolidated results are reflected in Intersegment or Other below. All Other non-segmented assets primarily include cash and cash equivalents and intercompany eliminations. The Company evaluates the performance of each segment based on revenue, and measures segment performance based upon EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization).

 

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2024, the Company moved certain assets and associated revenues and expenses previously part of the Company's Other activities into the U.S. Concrete Pumping segment based on the way our chief operating decision maker ("CODM") allocates resources and measures performance. As a result, segment results for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Results of Operations 

 

During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company’s operations in the U.S. were negatively impacted by severe winter weather, including heavy rainfall, snow and freezing temperatures in the month of January that stalled many customer projects and resulted in a revenue decline in the U.S. Concrete Pumping segment. This was coupled with an increase in expenses during the first quarter primarily due to (1) a non-recurring charge of $3.5 million as a result of a recent adverse court ruling related to sales tax, and (2) higher labor, health insurance and rent costs. These factors are reflected in the description of our results of operations below.

Total revenue. Total revenues were $97.7 million for the three months ended January 31, 2024 compared to $93.6 million for the three months ended January 31, 2023. Revenue by segment is further discussed below.

 

U.S. Concrete Pumping. Revenue for our U.S. Concrete Pumping segment decreased by 0.8%, or $0.5 million, from $67.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 to $66.7 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 primarily attributable to a decrease in volume driven by severe winter weather in the 2024 first quarter, specifically heavy rainfall and freezing temperatures in the month of January.

 

U.K. Operations. Revenue for our U.K. Operations segment increased by 21.2%, or $2.7 million, from $12.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 to $15.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2024. Excluding the impact from foreign currency translation, revenue was up 16% year-over-year. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to pricing improvements.

 

U.S. Concrete Waste Management Services. Third party revenue for the U.S. Concrete Waste Management Services segment improved by 14.2%, or $1.9 million, from $13.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 to $15.6 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2024. The increase in revenue was driven by robust organic growth and pricing improvements against a backdrop of adverse winter weather.

Gross margin. Our gross margin for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 was 34.1% compared to 39.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. The decrease in our gross margin was primarily related to lower revenue volumes and labor utilization driven by the adverse impact severe of winter weather conditions, coupled with inflationary increases in insurance costs.

General and administrative expenses

 

General and administrative expenses ("G&A"). G&A expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 were $31.9 million, an increase of $4.9 million from $27.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. G&A expenses as a percent of revenue were 32.7% for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 compared to 28.9% for the same period a year ago. The dollar increase in G&A expenses was largely due to (1) a non-recurring charge of $3.5 million related to sales tax litigation, as further described in Note 13 in Part I, Item 1 of this report for more information, (2) higher labor and health insurance costs of approximately $2.5 million as a result of additional headcount in our U.S. Concrete Waste Management Services segment to support growth initiatives and wage inflation, and (3) higher rent of $0.5 million. These increases were partially offset by non-cash decreases in amortization expense of $0.9 million and $0.6 million in lower stock-based compensation expense.

 

Excluding amortization of intangible assets of $3.9 million, depreciation expense of $0.6 million, stock-based compensation expense of $0.5 million and the non-recurring $3.5 million sales tax litigation-related charge, G&A expenses were $23.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 (23.9% of revenue), up $6.4 million from $20.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2023 (21.9% of revenue). The increase was primarily due to the Washington charge and higher labor as discussed above.

 

Total other income (expense)

 

Interest expense and amortization of deferred financing costs. Interest expense and amortization of deferred financing costs for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 was $6.5 million, down $0.4 million from $6.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to a lower average ABL revolver draw during the fiscal 2024 first quarter as compared to the same quarter a year ago.

 

Change in fair value of warrant liabilities. During the first quarter of fiscal 2024 the Company recognized a $0.1 million gain on the fair value remeasurement of our liability-classified warrants. During the first quarter of fiscal 2023 the Company recognized a $4.6 million gain on the fair value measurement of our liability-classified warrants. The decline in the fair value remeasurement of the public warrants for the first quarter of fiscal 2023 is due to the Company's share price trading below the exercise price as the warrants were closer to expiring in December 2023. On December 6, 2023, we announced the expiration of the Company's 13,017,677 warrants to acquire shares of its common stock, as such they are no longer recognized as a liability on the balance sheet as of January 31, 2024.

 

Income tax expense

 

Income tax expense (benefit). For the first fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2024 the Company recorded income tax benefit of $1.0 million on pretax loss of $4.8 million. For the same quarter a year ago, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $0.6 million on a pretax income of $7.1 million. The comparability of effective tax rates between both periods was primarily impacted by the warrants fair value activity in the three months ended January 31, 2023, as it is not recognized for tax purposes.

 

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 was previously categorized in the Company's Other activities, into the U.S. Concrete Pumping segment in order to better align its placement with the manner in which the Company now allocates resources and measures performance. As a result, segment results for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. For further discussion, see Note 18 in Part I, Item 1 of this report for more information. In addition, in order to appropriately distribute the use of corporate resources and better 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 segment results for the quarter ended January 31, 2023 are below:

U.S. Concrete Pumping. Net loss for our U.S. Concrete Pumping segment was $6.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2024, versus a net loss of $0.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2023. Adjusted EBITDA for our U.S. Concrete Pumping segment was $10.7 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2024, down 36.4% from $16.8 million for the same period in fiscal 2023. The decreases in net income and Adjusted EBITDA were primarily attributable to lower revenue volume and labor utilization due to the adverse impact from severe winter weather in the first quarter, coupled with increased costs related to insurance.

 

U.K. Operations. Net income for our U.K. Operations segment was $0.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2024, versus a net loss of $0.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2023. Adjusted EBITDA for our U.K. Operations segment was $3.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2024, up 32.8% from $2.4 million from the same period in fiscal 2023. The increases were primarily attributable to the year-over-year improvement in revenue and reductions in fuel, labor and repair costs.

 

U.S. Concrete Waste Management Services. Net income for our U.S. Concrete Waste Management Services segment was $2.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2024, versus net income of $2.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2023. Adjusted EBITDA for our U.S. Concrete Waste Management Services segment was $5.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2024, down 7.5% from $5.8 million from the same period in fiscal 2023. The decreases were primarily attributable to the adverse weather impact in the first quarter on revenue volumes and labor utilization, coupled with insurance cost inflation.

 

Other. Net income for Other activities was $0.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2024, compared to a net income of $4.6 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2023. The change in net income is primarily related to the change in warrant liability, as discussed above. There was no change in Adjusted EBITDA for our Other activities for the periods provided.

 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Overview

 

Our capital structure is primarily a combination of (1) permanent financing, represented by stockholders’ equity; (2) zero-dividend convertible perpetual preferred stock; (3) long-term financing represented by our Senior Notes and (4) short-term financing under our ABL Facility. Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from operations, available cash and cash equivalents and access to our revolving credit facility under our ABL Facility, which provides for aggregate borrowings of up to $225.0 million, subject to a borrowing base limitation. We use our liquidity and capital resources to: (1) finance working capital requirements; (2) service our indebtedness; (3) purchase property, plant and equipment; and (4) finance strategic acquisitions. As of January 31, 2024, we had $14.7 million of cash and cash equivalents and $202.3 million of available borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility, providing total available liquidity of $217.0 million.

 

We may from time to time seek to retire or pay down borrowings on the outstanding balance of our ABL Facility or Senior Notes using cash on hand. Such repayments, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors.

 

We believe our existing cash and cash equivalent balances, cash flow from operations and borrowing capacity under our ABL Facility will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs for at least the next 12 months. Our future capital requirements may vary materially from those currently planned and will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, potential acquisitions and overall economic conditions. To the extent that current and anticipated future sources of liquidity are insufficient to fund our future business activities and requirements, we may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing. The sale of additional equity could result in dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of debt financing would result in debt service obligations and the instruments governing such debt could provide for operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations.

 

Material Cash Requirements

 

Our principal uses of cash historically have been to fund operating activities and working capital, purchases of property and equipment, strategic acquisitions, fund payments due under facility operating and finance leases, share repurchases and to meet debt service requirements.

 

Our working capital surplus as of January 31, 2024 was $7.3 million. We believe we have adequate coverage of our debt covenants.

 

25

 

The amount of our future capital expenditures will depend on a number of factors including general economic conditions and growth prospects. In response to changing economic conditions, we believe we have the flexibility to modify our capital expenditures by adjusting them (either up or down) to match our actual performance. Our capital expenditures for the three months ended January 31, 2024 and 2023 were approximately $17.8 million and $17.1 million, respectively.

 

To service our debt, we require a significant amount of cash. Our ability to pay interest and principal on our indebtedness will depend upon our future operating performance and the availability of borrowings under the ABL Facility and/or other debt and equity financing alternatives available to us, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions and conditions in the global credit and capital markets, as well as financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. Based on our current level of operations and given the current state of the capital markets, we believe our cash flow from operations, available cash and available borrowings under the ABL Facility will be adequate to service our debt and meet our future liquidity needs for the foreseeable future. See “Senior Notes and ABL Facility” discussion below for more information.

 

Future Contractual Obligations

On June 1, 2023, the ABL Facility was amended to, among other changes, (1) increase the maximum revolver borrowings available to be drawn thereunder to $225.0 million, (2) increase the letter of credit sublimit to $22.5 million and (3) extend the maturity of the ABL Facility to the earlier of (a) June 1, 2028 or (b) the date that is 180 days prior to (i) the final stated maturity date of the Senior Notes or (ii) the date the Senior Notes become due and payable. The ABL Facility also provides for an uncommitted accordion feature under which the borrowers under the ABL Facility can, subject to specified conditions, increase the ABL Facility by up to an additional $75.0 million. The amended ABL Facility was treated as a debt modification. The Company capitalized an additional $0.5 million of debt issuance costs related to the June 1, 2023, ABL Facility amendment. The preexisting unamortized deferred costs of $1.4 million and the additional costs of $0.5 million will be amortized from June 1, 2023 through June 1, 2028.

 

The outstanding balance under the ABL Facility as of January 31, 2024 was $13.0 million and as of that date, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants. In addition, as of January 31, 2024, the Company had $1.1 million in credit line reserves and a letter of credit balance of $8.5 million. As of January 31, 2024, we had $202.3 million of available borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility. Debt issuance costs related to revolving credit facilities are capitalized and reflected as an asset in deferred financing costs in the accompanying condensed balance sheets. The Company had debt issuance costs related to the revolving credit facilities of $1.7 million as of January 31, 2024. See Note 8 for more information on the Senior Notes and ABL Facility.

Cash Flows

 

Cash generated from operating activities typically reflects net income, as adjusted for non-cash expense items such as depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation, and changes in our operating assets and liabilities. Generally, we believe our business requires a relatively low level of working capital investment due to low inventory requirements and timely customer payments due to daily billings for most of our services.

 

Cash flow provided by operating activities. Net cash provided by operating activities generally reflects the cash effects of transactions and other events used in the determination of net income or loss.

 

Net cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended January 31, 2024 was $20.3 million. The Company had a net loss of $3.8 million, which included non-cash expense items of $13.4 million. In addition, we had cash outflows related to an increase to our working capital of $10.7 million. Working capital changes primarily include a decrease in receivables of $13.9 million, a decrease in inventory of $0.6 million, a decrease of $3.9 million in accounts payable, an increase in other operating assets of $0.6 million and a decrease in other operating liabilities of $0.6 million. The decrease in receivables is due to seasonal collection of receivables during the first quarter of fiscal year 2024. The decrease in accounts payable is driven by the timing of vendor payments. The increase in other assets is primarily due to the increase in sales tax receivable.

 

Net cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended January 31, 2023 was $17.9 million. The Company had net income of $6.5 million, which included non-cash expense items of $11.4 million. In addition, we had cash outflows related to a decrease to our working capital of $0.1 million. Working capital changes primarily include an increase to other operating assets of $7.3 million and a decrease of $4.0 million to accounts payable, offset by a decrease in receivables of $10.4 million, an increase in other operating liabilities of $1.9 million, and an increase in inventory of $1.0 million. The increase to prepaid expenses and other current assets is primarily due to timing of prepaid insurance, which is generally prepaid during the first quarter of fiscal year 2023. The decrease in accounts payable is driven by timing. The decrease in receivables is due to seasonal collection of receivables during the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, while the increase in other operating liabilities is primarily related to an increase in accrued interest and partially offset by lease payments of $1.4 million. The Company makes semiannual interest payments in February and August each year.

 

Cash flow used in investing activities. Net cash used in operating activities generally reflects the cash outflows for property, plant and equipment.

 

We used $16.5 million to fund investing activities during the three months ended January 31, 2024. The Company used $17.8 million for the purchase of property, plant and equipment, which was partially offset by $1.3 million in proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment.

 

We used $14.8 million to fund investing activities during the three months ended January 31, 2023. The Company used $17.1 million for the purchase of property, plant and equipment, which was partially offset by $2.3 million in proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment.

 

Cash flow provided by (used in) financing activities.

 

Net cash used in financing activities was $5.6 million for the three months ended January 31, 2024. Cash used in financing activities included $5.9 million in net payments under the Company's ABL Facility and $1.1 million in purchase of treasury stock, which included $0.2 million purchased under the share repurchase program and $0.9 million in outflows from the purchase of shares into treasury stock in order to fund the employee tax obligations for certain vested stock awards.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $6.7 million for the three months ended January 31, 2023. Financing activities during this period primarily included $5.5 million in purchase of treasury stock, which included $4.9 million purchased under the share repurchase program and $0.6 million in outflows from the purchase of shares into treasury stock in order to fund the employee tax obligations for certain vested stock awards. In addition, cash used in financing activities included $1.2 million in net proceeds under the Company's ABL Facility

Accounting and Other Reporting Matters

 

Non-GAAP Measures (EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA)

 

We calculate EBITDA by taking GAAP net income and adding back interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by taking EBITDA and adding back transaction expenses, loss on debt extinguishment, stock-based compensation, changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities, other income, net, goodwill and intangibles impairment and other adjustments. 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, we exclude these amounts from Adjusted EBITDA for comparability across periods. Other adjustments include non-recurring expenses and non-cash currency gains/losses.

 

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2024, the Company moved certain assets and associated revenues and expenses that was previously categorized in the Company's Other activities, into the U.S. Concrete Pumping segment in order to better align its placement with the manner in which the Company now allocates resources and measures performance. As a result, segment results for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. For further discussion, see Note 18 in Part I, Item 1 of this report for more information. In addition, in order to appropriately distribute the use of corporate resources and better 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. As a result, segment results for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to our current period presentation. See the section “Adjusted EBITDA and Net Income/(Loss)” above for more information.

 

We believe 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 we are 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.
