Conference Call Scheduled for 9:00 am ET on August 14, 2020

PITTSBURGH–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Limbach Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: LMB) (“Limbach” or the “Company”) today announced its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. Revenue increased 1.9% from the prior year period to $135.2 million, despite the adverse impact on field activity during the reporting period attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic. Gross margin in the quarter was 15.0%, an increase of 170 basis points as compared to fiscal year 2019. Higher gross profit, together with lower selling, general and administrative expenses, resulted in net income of $2.9 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $8.1 million which reflects Adjusted EBITDA growth of more than three times the prior year period amount.

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

  • Construction segment revenue of $105.9 million increased 1.1% driven by growth in the Michigan, Ohio, and Southern California operating regions, offset by revenue declines in the Florida, Eastern and Western Pennsylvania, and New England regions. The revenue declines in the Florida and New England operating regions was mostly due to COVID-19 induced project suspensions, all of which have since been lifted. Service revenue increased 5.0%, also despite COVID-19 induced delays in certain operating regions.
  • Gross margin increased to 15.0% from 13.3% as a result of a greater contribution from the higher-margin Service segment relative to the Construction segment, and more favorable project pricing on Service work during the period. Construction gross margin increased 133 basis points despite write-downs in the period of $1.5 million, of which approximately half were attributable to the Southern California operating region. Service segment gross margin increased 259 basis points to 27.8%.
  • SG&A expense in the second quarter decreased to $13.8 million as compared to $17.1 million as the Company responded to the COVID-19 pandemic by implementing a widespread cost reduction program. As a percent of revenue, SG&A expense was 10.2% as compared to 12.9%.
  • Interest expense was $2.1 million in the second quarter of 2020 as compared to $1.6 million as the Company paid higher interest rates under the Company’s term loan following the closing of a refinancing on April 12, 2019.
  • Net income in the second quarter was $2.9 million compared with a net loss of $1.3 million. Diluted EPS increased to $0.37 as compared to ($0.17).
  • Net cash provided by operating activities was $18.9 million in the second quarter, as compared to net cash used in operating activities of $11.5 million.
  • Total backlog at June 30, 2020 was $470.6 million as compared to $534.9 million as of March 31, 2020 and $561.2 million as of December 31, 2019. At June 30, 2020, Construction backlog accounted for $408.8 million of the consolidated total. Service backlog accounted for $61.8 million of the consolidated total.

Charlie Bacon, Limbach’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Limbach’s performance in the second quarter reflected the exceptional efforts of our dedicated employees in the midst of a challenging and difficult environment. Despite the distractions resulting from the overwhelming changes occurring around us and a hyper-vigilant focus on safety, we believe the Company generated remarkable operating performance and financial results. These results were depressed by sustained revenue deferrals in our New England and Florida operating regions due to government and customer-mandated project suspensions, all of which have since been lifted. Our Construction results were supported by an emergency project in our Michigan operation, which was completed on an accelerated timeline, while Service experienced further margin expansion which is the result of our continued focus on improved pricing and a more favorable business mix. We also responded swiftly to the changing environment early in the quarter and reduced SG&A expenses wherever possible, driving a $3.3 million reduction as compared to last year’s second quarter. Additionally, a concerted effort to improve working capital management and cash flow generation led to a $38.1 million year-over-year improvement in cash flow from operating activities for the year-to-date period.”

Mr. Bacon continued, “As a result of our improved profitability, working capital management and cash flow generation, we have dramatically enhanced the Company’s liquidity position. It will be critical to maintain and build upon that success as we enter the Fall and Winter seasons, and the associated uncertainties of the economic, political and public health environments. I believe the Company is well positioned, however, given the essential nature of our business activities and the diversity of our business model. We are also pleased with the amount and quality of the Construction and Service backlog we are carrying into the second half of 2020. While we did experience a decline in aggregate backlog as compared to March 31 and December 31, as well as some impact to sales activity during the quarter, the margin profile of the work in backlog is more rich as compared to prior periods. We also have approximately $130 million in likely projects for which we are either performing preconstruction work, and/or negotiating contract language, which are not included in backlog and will not be until definitive documentation has been executed. Finally, we are also encouraged by Service sales activity. While sales in the second quarter decreased on a sequential basis, sales increased approximately 50% year-over year, and have increased approximately 51% on a year-to-date basis versus 2019.” “Sales” refers to new work and projects that have been sold and which, in most cases, is reflected in backlog except for work both sold and performed in the same period.

Second Quarter 2020 Summary

Revenue

Second quarter 2020 revenue increased 1.9% to $135.2 million compared to $132.6 million in the prior year period. Revenue for the second 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 revenue increased 1.1%. The principal contributors to the growth in Construction segment revenue were the Michigan, Ohio, and Southern California operating regions, offset by revenue declines in Florida, Eastern and Western Pennsylvania, and New England. The revenue declines in the Florida and New England operating regions were mostly due to COVID-19 impacted project suspensions. Revenue growth in the Service segment increased 5.0%.

Gross Profit

Total gross margin for the quarter was 15.0% as compared to 13.3% in last year’s second quarter. Gross profit for the second quarter of 2019 is “As Recast” to reflect the adoption of ASC Topic 606. In the current period, gross profit was positively impacted by a greater contribution from the Service segment, which generates higher overall margins, and by improved pricing in the Service segment overall. Gross margin in the Service segment increased to 27.8% compared to 25.2% in the second quarter of 2019. Service segment gross margin increased due to higher pricing across most lines of business.

Gross margin in the Construction segment increased to 11.5% from 10.2% as a result of improved execution in most markets, and a high margin project that was booked and completed in the second quarter in the Michigan operating region. Gross profit was negatively impacted by the recognition of net project write-downs of $1.5 million, approximately half of which are related to previously addressed projects in the Southern California region. That net project adjustment was comparable to 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 second quarter was $13.8 million compared to $17.1 million in the prior year period. The decrease of $3.3 million resulted from expense reduction and cost savings initiatives undertaken early in the second quarter, including temporary and permanent headcount reductions implemented following the widespread outbreak of COVID-19 in the United States. Other expense categories that were positively impacted by the cost reduction initiatives included rent, travel and entertainment, and professional services. As a percent of total revenue, SG&A expense for the second quarter declined to 10.2% from 12.9% in the prior year period.

Net Income

Net income was $2.9 million compared to a net loss of ($1.3) million in the prior year period. Net loss for the second quarter of 2019 is “As Recast” to reflect the adoption of ASC Topic 606. Net income per basic and diluted share for the second quarter was $0.38 and $0.37, respectively, compared to a net loss per share of ($0.17) for both basic and diluted for the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter was $8.1 million as compared to $2.4 million in the prior year period, an increase of 232.8%. Adjusted EBITDA for the second 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 gross margins in both the Construction and Service segments during the second quarter of 2020, as well as the substantial decrease in SG&A expense.

Backlog and Remaining Performance Obligations

Total backlog at June 30, 2020 was $470.6 million as compared to $561.2 million as of December 31, 2019. At June 30, 2020, Construction backlog accounted for $408.8 million of the consolidated total, a decrease of 18.9% as compared to December 31, 2019. Service backlog accounted for $61.8 million of the consolidated total, an increase of 8.4% as compared to December 31, 2019.

Backlog includes unexercised contract options which are not included in the Company’s remaining performance obligations. At June 30, 2020, remaining performance obligations of the Company’s Construction and Service segment contracts were $408.8 million and $46.6 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 June 30, 2020, the Company had current assets of $207.7 million and current liabilities of $164.8 million, representing a current ratio of 1.26x. Working capital was $42.8 million at June 30, 2020, an increase of $4.3 million from December 31, 2019. The Company had no borrowings against its $14.0 million revolving credit facility at June 30, 2020, other than for standby letters of credit totaling $3.5 million.

Supplemental Information

Although Limbach is not currently reporting its financial results for any periods subsequent to June 30, 2020, management is providing the following unaudited supplemental balance sheet information as of July 31, 2020:

Cash

2020 Guidance

The Company announces the following guidance for 2020:

Revenue $560 – $600 million
Adjusted EBITDA $22 – $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 second half 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 second quarter of fiscal year 2020. Additionally, the guidance does not assume any resolution of the significant claim opportunities.

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.

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.
