APi Group Corporation (NYSE: APG) (“APG”, “APi” or the “Company”) today reported its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

First Quarter 2021 Highlights:

  • Reported net revenues declined by 6.4% or $55 million to $803 million compared to $858 million in the prior year period, primarily driven by the divestiture of two businesses in Industrial Services
  • Adjusted net revenues declined by 2.1% or $17 million to $803 million, compared to $820 million in the prior year period, primarily driven by the anticipated decline in Industrial Services
  • Net revenues, excluding Industrial Services, increased on an organic basis by 2.4% compared to the prior year period
  • Reported gross margin was 22.5%, representing a 366 basis point increase compared to prior year gross margin of 18.9%, driven by a decrease in amortization expense combined with improved mix
  • Adjusted gross margin was 23.0%, representing a 72 basis point increase compared to prior year adjusted gross margin of 22.3%, driven by improved mix in Safety Services and disciplined project and customer selection in Specialty Services
  • Reported operating loss was $2 million, an improvement of $232 million from prior year operating loss of $234 million, primarily due to the impairment charge of $208 million recorded in the prior year period
  • Reported net loss was $8 million, an improvement of $186 million from prior year net loss of $194 million, primarily due to the impairment charge of $208 million recorded in the prior year period. Reported net loss was $0.04 per diluted share
  • Adjusted net income was $24 million and adjusted diluted EPS was $0.12, representing a $0.03 decline from prior year primarily due to the increased number of shares compared to the prior year
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $61 million or 7.6%, representing an approximately 20 basis point improvement compared to prior year adjusted EBITDA margin of 7.4%
  • Operating cash flow of $32 million, a $23 million decrease from prior year operating cash flow of $55 million

Russ Becker, APi’s President and Chief Executive Officer stated: “We are pleased to deliver our first quarter results with net revenues slightly above and adjusted EBITDA margin in line with our previously communicated guidance. As we continue to manage through the impacts from COVID-19 versus a largely COVID-19 free Q1 last year, I remain grateful and inspired by our approximately 13,000 team members. I am appreciative of the resiliency and commitment of our team who remain focused on serving customers despite the macro headwinds. I want to thank them for their continued efforts. Their ongoing leadership efforts continue to demonstrate that our leaders are a competitive advantage and help drive shareholder value.”

“As we continue to focus on improving our mix, disciplined project and customer selection, pricing opportunities, leveraging our spend, driving operational excellence and realizing synergies from acquisitions, we are confident in our recently announced goal of 13%+ adjusted EBITDA margin by year-end 2025. We believe that strategic M&A is an opportunity to accelerate the timetable to achieve our margin expansion objectives and we look forward to updating you on our expected progress as we move through the balance of the year.”

APi Co-Chair James E. Lillie added: “We are encouraged by our results this quarter, particularly given a tough comparison relative to first quarter 2020 due to COVID-19 and unfavorable weather conditions. The strong performance speaks to the leadership team, the strength of the business, our protective moat around the business driven by recurring service revenue, and our financial discipline, as we continue to focus on shareholder value creation.

We are also very pleased that the team continues to execute against our long-term strategic plans. I believe that those of you who joined us for our investor day saw depth to our leadership bench and gained additional insight into the various opportunities we have to drive earnings and margin expansion which we believe should drive multiple expansion. We ended the quarter with nearly $750 million of cash and a net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio under our credit facility of 1.75x, which is below our target long-term net leverage ratio of 2.0x – 2.5x and provides us with ample capacity to absorb additional accretive acquisitions.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains non-U.S. GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company uses certain non-U.S. GAAP financial measures that are included in this press release and the additional financial information both in explaining its results to shareholders and the investment community and in its internal evaluation and management of its businesses. The Company’s management believes that these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures and the information they provide are useful to investors since these measures (a) permit investors to view the Company’s performance using the same tools that management uses to evaluate the Company’s past performance, reportable business segments and prospects for future performance, (b) permit investors to compare the Company with its peers and (c) determine certain elements of management’s incentive compensation. Specifically:

  • The Company’s management believes that adjusted net revenues, adjusted gross profit, adjusted selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses, adjusted net income, and adjusted earnings per share, which are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude business transformation and other expenses for the integration of acquired businesses, the impact and results of businesses classified as assets held-for-sale and businesses divested, and one-time and other events such as impairment charges, share-based compensation, transaction and other costs related to acquisitions, amortization of intangible assets and depreciation remeasurements associated with acquisitions, net COVID-19 relief, and certain tax benefits from the acquisition of APi Group, Inc. (the “APi Acquisition”), are useful because they provide investors with a meaningful perspective on the current underlying performance of the Company’s core ongoing operations.
  • Adjusted net revenues is defined as net revenues excluding the impact and results of businesses classified as assets held-for-sale and businesses divested. The Company’s management believes that this measure is useful as a supplement to enable investors to compare period-over-period results on a more consistent basis without the effects of businesses classified as assets held-for-sale and businesses divested, which more meaningfully reflects the Company’s core ongoing operations and performance. The Company uses adjusted net revenues to evaluate its performance, both internally and as compared with its peers, because it excludes certain items that may not be indicative of the Company’s core operating results.
  • The Company also presents organic changes in net revenues on a consolidated basis, segment specific basis, or on a consolidated basis excluding certain segments, to provide a more complete understanding of underlying revenue trends by providing net revenues on a consistent basis as it excludes the impacts of material acquisitions, completed divestitures, and changes in foreign currency from year-over-year comparisons on reported net revenues, calculated as the difference between the reported net revenues for the current period and reported net revenues for the current period converted at the prior year average monthly exchange rates (excluding acquisitions and divestitures). The remainder is divided by the prior year net revenues, excluding the impacts of material acquisitions and completed divestitures. This press release also includes net revenues excluding Industrial Services on an organic basis in order to provide a more complete understanding for investors of the financial results of our two most significant segments for which organic growth is a key metric.
  • Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) is the measure of profitability used by management to manage its segments and, accordingly, in its segment reporting. The Company supplements the reporting of its consolidated financial information with certain non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, which defined as EBITDA excluding the impact of certain non-cash and other specifically identified items (“adjusted EBITDA”). Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as adjusted EBITDA divided by adjusted net revenues. The Company believes these non-U.S. GAAP measures provide meaningful information and help investors understand the Company’s financial results and assess its prospects for future performance. The Company uses EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to evaluate its performance, both internally and as compared with its peers, because it excludes certain items that may not be indicative of the Company’s core operating results. Consolidated EBITDA is calculated in a manner consistent with segment EBITDA, which is a measure of segment profitability.
  • The Company presents free cash flow, adjusted free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow conversion, which are liquidity measures used by management as factors in determining the amount of cash that is available for working capital needs or other uses of cash, however, it does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures. Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as cash provided by (used in) operating activities plus or minus events including, but not limited to, transaction and other costs related to acquisitions, business transformation and other expenses for the integration of acquired businesses, impacts of businesses classified as assets held-for-sale and businesses divested, and one-time and other events such as COVID-19 related payroll tax deferral and relief items. Adjusted free cash flow conversion is defined as adjusted free cash flow as a percentage of adjusted EBITDA.

The Company does not provide reconciliations of forward-looking non-U.S. GAAP adjusted net revenues and adjusted EBITDA guidance to GAAP due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations, including adjustments that could be made for acquisitions and divestitures, business transformation and other expenses for the integration of acquired businesses, one-time and other events such as impairment charges, transaction and other costs related to acquisitions, amortization of intangible assets, net COVID-19 relief, and certain tax benefits from the APi Acquisition, and other charges reflected in our reconciliation of historic numbers, the amount of which, based on historical experience, could be significant.

While the Company believes these non-U.S. GAAP measures are useful in evaluating the Company’s performance, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for or superior to the related financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Additionally, these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures may differ from similar measures presented by other companies. A reconciliation of these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures is included later in this press release.
