Insights

Limbach Holdings delivered exceptional financial performance in Q4 and full-year 2024, with record results across key metrics that reflect successful execution of their strategic transformation. The company achieved record net income of $30.9 million for FY2024, a 48.8% increase from 2023, while adjusted EBITDA surged 36.1% to a record $63.7 million.

The company's strategic pivot toward Owner Direct Relationships (ODR) continues to drive margin expansion, with ODR revenue climbing 31.9% to $345.5 million and now accounting for 66.6% of total revenue. This strategic shift from general contractor relationships has significantly enhanced profitability, with gross profit margins expanding from 23.1% to 27.8% for the full year.

Q4 results were particularly strong, with quarterly adjusted EBITDA jumping 65.5% and gross margins expanding to 30.3% from 23.3% in the prior-year quarter. The company completed two strategic acquisitions in 2024 that contributed approximately $31.5 million to ODR revenue, advancing their disciplined M&A strategy.

Management provided optimistic 2025 guidance of $610-630 million in revenue and $78-82 million in adjusted EBITDA, demonstrating confidence in continued execution of their business transformation. The company's focus on mission-critical facility services across six verticals (healthcare, industrial/manufacturing, data centers, life science, higher education, and cultural/entertainment) creates durable demand across economic cycles and positions Limbach for sustained growth.

Limbach's impressive financial performance reflects the successful execution of a fundamental business model transformation that has far-reaching implications for investors. The company's strategic shift toward direct owner relationships has created a structurally more profitable business with enhanced revenue durability and reduced cyclicality.

The margin expansion story is particularly compelling - gross margins increased by 470 basis points year-over-year to 27.8% and reached 30.3% in Q4. This substantial improvement stems from both mix-shift and increased selectivity in the GCR segment, demonstrating management's disciplined approach to profitable growth rather than pursuing revenue at any cost.

Limbach's focus on mission-critical infrastructure in high-value sectors like healthcare, data centers, and life sciences provides significant defensive characteristics while maintaining growth potential. The company's 66.6% revenue concentration in ODR suggests they're approaching the inflection point in their transformation, where steady topline growth should complement the already evident margin expansion.

Their M&A strategy targeting $8-10 million in annual EBITDA contribution from acquisitions provides a clear pathway for scaling while maintaining disciplined valuation criteria. The strong balance sheet with $44.9 million in cash and minimal debt ($10 million drawn on revolver) provides ample flexibility for continued strategic acquisitions and shareholder returns.

This earnings report demonstrates that Limbach has successfully executed the difficult transition from a construction-oriented business to a higher-margin, more predictable facility services provider - positioning the company for enhanced shareholder value as both growth and margins expand.

Management Comments

“In 2024, we produced record gross profit, record net income and record adjusted EBITDA by expanding and strengthening customer relationships in six verticals – healthcare, industrial and manufacturing, data centers, life science, higher education and cultural and entertainment,” Michael McCann, President and Chief Executive Officer of Limbach Holdings, said. “As a result of this momentum, for 2025 we estimate revenue of $610 million to $630 million and adjusted EBITDA of $78 million to $82 million.

“Throughout 2024, we created value for our customers, drove margin expansion, and delivered record profitability for our stockholders by executing the three pillars of our strategy: shifting our revenue mix from general contractor new construction projects to working directly for building owners on existing facilities, evolving our service offerings and scaling through acquisitions.

“Our dedicated account team structure and customer centric approach focus on existing buildings and create durable demand across economic cycles. We have expanded our reach and added value through our integrated facility planning, rental equipment, equipment replacements and retrofits, and maintenance and repair services. This allows us to provide comprehensive support across our customers' capital and operational budgets. Although we have made progress, we believe we still have significant opportunity to grow market share while growing our bottom line.

“We grew our business through two strategic acquisitions in 2024. Our acquisition strategy is that each new partnership should enhance our culture, fill a niche, prioritize building owner relationships and follow a proven value creation process to drive growth and long-term impact. Our current goal is to produce $8 million to $10 million in adjusted EBITDA per year through acquisitions. We have an ample pipeline of strong businesses to meet this goal while maintaining our disciplined approach.

“We have been transitioning the business to ODR for the past five years and are nearing the point of achieving steady topline growth both organically and from acquisitions. We continue to focus on working closely with mission-critical building owners whose aging infrastructure is critical to their operations. By specializing in existing buildings, we support customers and help drive sustainable, long-term growth.”

The following are results for the year-ended December 31, 2024, compared to the year-ended December 31, 2023:

  • Total revenue was $518.8 million, an increase of 0.5% from $516.4 million. ODR segment revenue of $345.5 million increased by $83.5 million, or 31.9%, while General Contractor Relationships (“GCR”) segment revenue of $173.3 million decreased by $81.1 million, or 31.9%. The increase in year-over-year ODR segment revenue primarily was due to the Company's continued focus on the accelerated growth of its ODR business. In addition, ODR segment revenue increased in the aggregate by approximately $31.5 million due to the ACME Industrial Piping, LLC (“ACME”) and Industrial Air, LLC (“Industrial Air”) transactions. These entities were not acquired entities of the Company for the full year ending December 31, 2023. The decrease in year-over-year GCR segment revenue was primarily due to the Company’s continued focus on the execution of its mix-shift strategy to ODR.
  • Total gross profit was $144.3 million, compared to $119.3 million. ODR gross profit increased $31.7 million, or 41.6%, due to the combination of an increase in revenue, higher margins driven by contract mix and as a result of the ACME and Industrial Air transactions. GCR gross profit decreased $6.7 million, or 15.5%, primarily due to lower revenue despite higher margins. The total gross profit percentage increased from 23.1% to 27.8%, mainly driven by the mix of higher margin ODR segment work, the Company becoming more selective when pursuing GCR work, and net material gross profit write-ups.
  • SG&A expense increased approximately $9.8 million, to $97.2 million, compared to $87.4 million. The increase in SG&A primarily was due to a $6.5 million increase associated with payroll and incentive related expenses, $4.1 million of collective expenses incurred with the ACME and Industrial Air entities that were not acquired entities of the Company for the full fiscal year 2023, a $0.9 million increase in stock-based compensation expense and a $0.7 million increase for professional services fees. Partly offsetting this increase was a $1.0 million decrease in SG&A related to CEO transition costs recognized in 2023. As a percent of revenue, SG&A expense was 18.7%, up from 16.9%.
  • Interest expense was relatively flat at $1.9 million for 2024, compared to $2.0 million in 2023.
  • Interest income was $2.2 million for 2024, compared to $1.2 million in 2023. This increase was due to the Company's timing and amounts of investments in overnight repurchase agreements, U.S. Treasury Bills, and money market funds year-over-year.
  • Net income for the year was $30.9 million as compared to $20.8 million, an increase of 48.8%. Diluted earnings per share were $2.57 as compared to $1.76.
  • Adjusted net income was $43.2 million as compared to $29.2 million, an increase of 48.2%. Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $3.60 as compared to $2.48.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $63.7 million as compared to $46.8 million, an increase of 36.1%.
  • Net cash provided by operating activities was $36.8 million as compared to $57.4 million in the prior year primarily due to changes in working capital.

The following are results for the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2023:

  • Total revenue was $143.7 million, an increase of 0.7% from $142.7 million. ODR segment revenue of $95.5 million increased by $16.9 million, or 21.4%, while GCR segment revenue of $48.2 million was down $15.9 million, or 24.8%. The increase in quarter-over-quarter ODR segment revenue was primarily due to the Company's continued focus on accelerating the growth of its ODR business. The decrease in quarter-over-quarter GCR segment revenue was primarily due to the Company’s continued focus on the execution of its mix-shift strategy to ODR.
  • Total gross profit was $43.6 million, compared to $33.3 million. ODR gross profit increased $6.9 million, or 29.3%, due to the combination of an increase in revenue and higher margins of 32.1% versus 30.1% driven by contract mix. GCR gross profit increased $3.3 million, or 34.5%, primarily due to higher margins of 26.9% compared to 15.0% despite lower revenue. The total gross profit percentage increased from 23.3% to 30.3%, mainly driven by the mix of higher margin ODR segment work, the Company continuing to be more selective when pursuing GCR work and net material gross profit write-ups.
  • SG&A expense increased approximately $2.4 million, to $27.4 million, compared to $25.0 million. The increase in SG&A primarily was due to a $2.8 million increase associated with payroll and incentive related expenses, partially offset by a $0.5 million decrease related to certain legal accruals. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expense was 19.1%, up from 17.5%.
  • Interest expense was relatively flat at $0.5 million, compared to $0.4 million.
  • Interest income was $0.5 million during the fourth quarter compared to $0.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. This decrease was due to the Company's timing and amounts of investments in overnight repurchase agreements, U.S. Treasury Bills, and money market funds period-over-period.
  • Net income was $9.8 million, as compared to $5.2 million, an increase of 87.5%. Diluted earnings per share were $0.82 as compared to $0.44.
  • Adjusted net income was $13.8 million as compared to $8.1 million, an increase of 70.9%. Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $1.15 as compared to $0.68.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $20.8 million as compared to $12.6 million, an increase of 65.5%.
  • Net cash provided by operating activities increased to $19.3 million as compared to $13.9 million.

Revenue

With respect to projected 2025 Adjusted EBITDA guidance and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, a quantitative reconciliation is not available without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability, complexity and low visibility with respect to certain items, which are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In assessing the performance of our business, management utilizes a variety of financial and performance measures. The key measures are Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share, which are non-GAAP financial measures.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

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 define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue. Our board of directors and executive management team focus on Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin as two of our key performance and compensation measures. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin assists us in comparing our performance over various reporting periods on a consistent basis because it removes from our operating results the impact of certain items that do not necessarily reflect our core operations. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are 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.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share

We define Adjusted Net Income as net income, adjusted to exclude certain items that do not reflect our core operating performance, such as amortization of intangible assets, non-cash stock-based compensation, restructuring charges, the change in fair value of contingent consideration, acquisition and other transaction costs and the net tax effect of reconciling items, as further adjusted to eliminate the impact of, when applicable, other non-cash or expenses that are unusual or non-recurring. We define Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share as Adjusted Net Income divided by the weighted average diluted shares outstanding. We believe Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share are useful to investors as we use these metrics to assist with strategic decision making, forecasting future results, and evaluating current performance.

We understand that these non-GAAP financial measures are 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, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share. Our calculations of these non-GAAP measures, 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, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share cannot be achieved without incurring the costs that the measure excludes. A reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA and net income to Adjusted Net Income, the most comparable GAAP measures, are 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.
