Arcosa, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2023 Results

Rhea-AI Summary

Arcosa, Inc. (NYSE: ACA) announced solid growth in construction and transportation businesses, offsetting anticipated second-quarter mix headwinds in utility structures. Operating cash flow increased by 47%, and the company raised the low end of its full-year 2023 revenue and adjusted EBITDA guidance. The divestiture of its storage tanks business was completed on October 3, 2022, and financial results for this business were historically included in the Engineered Structures segment as part of continuing operations until the date of sale. Despite a 3% decrease in revenues, excluding the impact from the divested business, there was an 8% increase. Adjusted EBITDA surpassed last year's record results, normalizing for the divestiture of the storage tanks business. President and CEO Antonio Carrillo expressed satisfaction with the second quarter's performance, highlighting successful advancements in pricing, cost management, and solid unit profitability in natural and recycled aggregates within the Construction Products segment. However, operating inefficiencies in the specialty materials business impacted overall adjusted segment EBITDA margins. The wind towers business performed well, benefiting from tax credits, while anticipated product mix headwinds in the utility structures business resulted in lower overall segment profitability. The company remains optimistic about a stronger second half.

“I am pleased with Arcosa's second quarter performance, with Adjusted EBITDA surpassing last year's record results, normalizing for the divestiture of our storage tanks business,” said Antonio Carrillo, President and Chief Executive Officer.

“In Construction Products, we continued to successfully advance pricing, manage cost pressures, and drive solid unit profitability in natural and recycled aggregates. However, overall Adjusted Segment EBITDA margins were impacted by operating inefficiencies in our specialty materials business that we are addressing.

“Within Engineered Structures, our wind towers business performed well on a low level of volume, benefiting in part from the recognition of tax credits associated with the Inflation Reduction Act. Anticipated product mix headwinds in our utility structures business resulted in lower overall segment profitability in-line with our expectation. We expect a stronger second half and remain optimistic about our future growth potential. The demand environment across the segment continues to be very robust, and we are in the early stages of a multi-year expansion in the wind industry.

“Adjusted Segment EBITDA in Transportation Products more than doubled and margins expanded 530 basis points year-over-year, underscoring the operating leverage inherent in these businesses as volumes improve. We were pleased to obtain sufficient second quarter orders to maintain our barge backlog and extend our production visibility further into 2024 with improved pricing.”

Carrillo concluded, “Our strong cash conversion was a highlight for the quarter. Free Cash Flow increased 11% year-over-year, despite a near doubling in planned capital expenditures as we invest to capture an expanded range of organic growth initiatives. Our pipeline of acquisition and organic opportunities remain attractive, and our solid balance sheet and strong liquidity position provide ample flexibility for strategic capital allocation.”

2023 Outlook and Guidance

The Company made the following adjustments to its full year 2023 guidance:

• Increased the low end of its revenue guidance range to $2.25 billion from $2.20 billion, resulting in a full year range of $2.25 billion to $2.30 billion.
• Increased the low end of its Adjusted EBITDA guidance range to $355 million from $345 million, resulting in a full year range of $355 million to $370 million.

Commenting on the outlook, Carrillo concluded, “In light of Arcosa's solid financial performance through the first half of the year and improved visibility in our cyclical businesses, we have increased confidence in our full-year outlook. As a result, we are raising the low end of our 2023 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance range.

“As we look ahead, Arcosa is well-positioned for growth given our broad exposure to infrastructure markets that we believe will benefit from multi-year tailwinds. We remain committed to expanding margin, generating strong cash flow and allocating capital to build long-term shareholder value.”

Second Quarter 2023 Results and Commentary

Construction Products

• Revenues increased 8% to $264.8 million driven by higher pricing and volume growth in our recycled aggregates business, as well as organic volume growth and acquisition-related contribution in our trench shoring business.
• Revenues for natural aggregates and specialty materials were relatively unchanged as higher pricing was offset by lower volumes.
• Adjusted Segment EBITDA increased 5% to $57.2 million, benefiting from strong pricing gains and reduced inflationary cost pressures as lower diesel costs year-over-year offset higher cement and process fuels costs.
• Adjusted Segment EBITDA Margin declined to 21.6% compared to 22.1% in the prior year period. Freight-Adjusted Segment EBITDA Margin decreased to 24.1% compared to 25.3% in the prior year period.
• The decline in margins was driven by our specialty materials business, which was impacted by operating inefficiencies related to labor availability and unplanned maintenance, and offset solid margin expansion in our other businesses.

• Operating profit benefited from a $5.0 million reduction in a holdback obligation owed on a previous acquisition. This benefit has been excluded from Adjusted Segment EBITDA.

Engineered Structures

• Comparability of segment results was impacted by the divestiture of our storage tanks business. Second quarter 2022 revenues and Adjusted EBITDA for the storage tanks business were $61.9 million and $15.8 million, respectively.
• Revenues for utility, wind, and related structures were flat as higher volumes in our utility structures business were offset by lower volumes in our wind tower business.
• Excluding the impact of the storage tanks business, Adjusted Segment EBITDA decreased 17% to $28.1 million, and margins decreased 270 basis points to 13.6%.
• Adjusted Segment EBITDA declined as anticipated due to lower margins in our utility structures business driven by project mix and a decrease in wind tower volumes, partially offset by the recognition of $5.9 million in net benefit from Advanced Manufacturing Production (“AMP”) tax credits in our wind towers business.
• Order activity for utility and related structures was healthy during the quarter with orders received keeping pace with shipments. There were no new wind tower orders booked during the quarter, however, customer inquiries continue to indicate strong multi-year demand.
• At the end of the second quarter, the combined backlog for utility, wind, and related structures was $1,507.4 million compared to $410.1 million at the end of the second quarter of 2022.

Transportation Products

• Revenues were $113.0 million, up 28%. Barge revenues increased 35% and steel components revenues increased 17%, both driven by higher volumes and pricing.
• Adjusted Segment EBITDA increased $8.1 million, or 108%, to $15.6 million, representing a 13.8% margin compared to 8.5% in the prior period. The increase was driven by operating leverage associated with higher volumes and improved pricing.
• During the quarter, we received orders of approximately $81 million in our barge business, representing a book-to-bill of 1.1. These orders are primarily for hopper barges for delivery in 2024.
• Barge backlog at the end of the quarter was $287.1 million compared to $131.8 million at the end of the second quarter of 2022. We expect to deliver approximately 45% of our current backlog in 2023.

Corporate and Other Financial Notes

• Excluding acquisition and divestiture-related costs, which have been excluded from Adjusted EBITDA, corporate expenses increased to $16.4 million in the second quarter compared to $13.4 million in the prior year primarily driven by higher compensation-related costs.
• Acquisition and divestiture-related costs were $0.3 million in the second quarter compared to $2.5 million in the prior year.
• The effective tax rate for the second quarter was 12.0% compared to 20.6% in the prior year. The decrease in the tax rate was primarily due to AMP tax credits for our wind tower business, which are excluded from taxable income, an increase in the excess tax benefit related to equity compensation, and lower foreign taxes.

Cash Flow and Liquidity

• Operating cash flow was $127.6 million during the second quarter, an increase of $40.9 million year-over-year.
• A reduction in working capital resulted in a $41.0 million source of cash for the quarter compared to the prior year's $7.7 million source of cash. The decrease in working capital was primarily due to a reduction in receivables and an increase to payables, offsetting higher inventory.
• Capital expenditures in the second quarter were $52.5 million, up from $27.0 million in the prior year, as progress continued on organic projects underway in Construction Products and Engineered Structures.
• Free Cash Flow for the quarter was $75.6 million, up from $68.3 million in the prior year.
• We ended the quarter with total liquidity of $672.8 million, including $197.9 million of cash, and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA was 1.0X for the trailing twelve months.

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA

($ in millions)

(unaudited)

“EBITDA” is defined as net income plus interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, and amortization. “Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as EBITDA adjusted for certain items that are not reflective of the normal earnings of our business. GAAP does not define EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA and they should not be considered as alternatives to earnings measures defined by GAAP, including net income. We use Adjusted EBITDA to assess the operating performance of our consolidated business, as a metric for incentive-based compensation, as a measure within our lending arrangements, and as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting as we believe that it closely correlates to long-term shareholder value. As a widely used metric by analysts, investors, and competitors in our industry, we believe Adjusted EBITDA also assists investors in comparing a company's performance on a consistent basis without regard to depreciation, depletion, amortization, and other items which can vary significantly depending on many factors. “Adjusted EBITDA Margin” is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenues.

“Segment EBITDA” is defined as segment operating profit plus depreciation, depletion, and amortization. “Adjusted Segment EBITDA” is defined as Segment EBITDA adjusted for certain items that are not reflective of the normal earnings of our business. GAAP does not define Segment EBITDA or Adjusted Segment EBITDA and they should not be considered as alternatives to earnings measures defined by GAAP, including segment operating profit. We use Adjusted Segment EBITDA to assess the operating performance of our businesses, as a metric for incentive-based compensation, and as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting as we believe that it closely correlates to long-term shareholder value. As a widely used metric by analysts, investors, and competitors in our industry we believe Adjusted Segment EBITDA also assists investors in comparing a company's performance on a consistent basis without regard to depreciation, depletion, amortization, and other items, which can vary significantly depending on many factors. “Adjusted Segment EBITDA Margin” is defined as Adjusted Segment EBITDA divided by Revenues.

Reconciliation of Free Cash Flow and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA

($ in millions)

(unaudited)

GAAP does not define “Free Cash Flow” and it should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow measures defined by GAAP, including cash flow from operating activities. We define Free Cash Flow as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures net of the proceeds from the disposition of property, plant, equipment, and other assets. The Company also uses “Free Cash Flow Conversion”, which we define as Free Cash Flow divided by net income. We use these metrics to assess the liquidity of our consolidated business. We present these metrics for the convenience of investors who use such metrics in their analysis and for shareholders who need to understand the metrics we use to assess performance and monitor our cash and liquidity positions.

		2023				2022				2023				2022
Cash Provided by Operating Activities	$	127.6			$	86.7			$	154.9			$	111.2

Free Cash Flow Conversion		185	%			175	%			85	%			148	%

GAAP does not define “Net Debt” and it should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow or liquidity measures defined by GAAP. The Company uses Net Debt, which it defines as total debt minus cash and cash equivalents to determine the extent to which the Company’s outstanding debt obligations would be satisfied by its cash and cash equivalents on hand. The Company also uses “Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA”, which it defines as Net Debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing twelve months as a metric of its current leverage position. We present this metric for the convenience of investors who use such metrics in their analysis and for shareholders who need to understand the metrics we use to assess performance and monitor our cash and liquidity positions.

	June 30, 2023
Total debt excluding debt issuance costs	$	551.4
