Insights
The reported revenue increase of 29.3% for Primoris Services Corporation is a significant indicator of the company's growth, particularly in the Energy and Utilities segments. This surge can be attributed to strategic acquisitions such as PLH and B Comm, which have evidently contributed to the expansion of the company's revenue base. However, the 5.2% decrease in net income highlights the impact of higher income tax and interest expenses, which investors should monitor as potential risks to profitability. The record backlog of $10.9 billion suggests a robust pipeline of future revenue, which could support sustained growth and provide a measure of predictability in future earnings.
From a liquidity perspective, the increase in net cash provided by operating activities by $115.2 million is a strong positive, demonstrating improved working capital management. This operational efficiency, coupled with the paydown of $120 million of borrowings, reflects a solid financial position and may influence the company's creditworthiness and borrowing costs. The financial data presented, particularly the Adjusted EBITDA increase of 33.9%, suggests operational leverage and efficiency gains that could be attractive to investors seeking companies with strong cash flow generation capabilities.
The growth in Primoris's backlog, particularly in the solar project awards, indicates a shift in market demand towards renewable energy sources. This trend aligns with broader industry movements towards sustainability and could position Primoris favorably within the sector. The company's optimistic outlook for 2024, presumably based on the current project pipeline and market conditions, may have positive implications for investor sentiment and the stock's future performance.
It is also noteworthy that the company has exceeded several financial goals while achieving its best safety performance, which speaks to the operational excellence and corporate responsibility investors often seek. This balance of financial achievement and commitment to safety could enhance the company's reputation and appeal, potentially leading to new business opportunities and partnerships that drive further growth.
An increase in revenue and backlog during a period of economic uncertainty can signal a company's resilience and market demand for its services. Primoris's performance may reflect underlying economic conditions, such as increased infrastructure spending or a rise in energy sector investment, particularly in renewables. The ability to generate cash from operations and reduce debt is commendable in the current economic climate, as it indicates a strategic approach to capital management and a buffer against potential downturns.
However, investors should be aware of macroeconomic factors such as interest rate fluctuations and tax policy changes that could affect the company's interest expenses and tax liabilities. The interplay between these factors and the company's financial performance will be crucial in assessing the company's ability to maintain its growth trajectory and manage costs effectively.

The effective tax rate was 29.0 percent for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Non-GAAP Measures |

Schedule 1
|
||||||||||||||||
Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS |
||||||||||||||||
Primoris defines Adjusted Net Income as net income (loss) adjusted for certain items including, (i) non‐cash stock‐based compensation expense; (ii) transaction/integration and related costs; (iii) asset impairment charges; (iv) changes in fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap; (v) change in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities; (vi) amortization of intangible assets; (vii) amortization of debt discounts and debt issuance costs; (viii) losses on extinguishment of debt; (ix) severance and restructuring changes; (x) selected (gains) charges that are unusual or non-recurring; and (xi) impact of changes in statutory tax rates. The Company defines Adjusted EPS as Adjusted Net Income divided by the diluted weighted average shares outstanding. Management believes these adjustments are helpful for comparing the Company’s operating performance with prior periods. Because Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS, as defined, exclude some, but not all, items that affect net income and diluted earnings per share, they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. The most comparable GAAP financial measures, net income and diluted earnings per share, and information reconciling the GAAP and non‐GAAP financial measures, are included in the table below. |

Adjustments above are reported on a pre-tax basis before the income tax impact of adjustments. The income tax impact for each adjustment is determined by calculating the tax impact of the adjustment on the Company's quarterly and annual effective tax rate, as applicable, unless the nature of the item and/or the tax jurisdiction in which the item has been recorded requires application of a specific tax rate or tax treatment, in which case the tax effect of such item is estimated by applying such specific tax rate or tax treatment. |
Schedule 2
|
|||||||||||||||
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA |
|||||||||||||||
Primoris defines EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted for certain items including, (i) non‐cash stock‐based compensation expense; (ii) transaction/integration and related costs; (iii) asset impairment charges; (iv) severance and restructuring changes; (v) change in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities; and (vi) selected (gains) charges that are unusual or non-recurring. The Company believes the EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA financial measures assist in providing a more complete understanding of the Company’s underlying operational measures to manage its business, to evaluate its performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace, and to establish operational goals. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non‐GAAP financial measures and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP. These non‐GAAP financial measures may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies. The most comparable GAAP financial measure, net income, and information reconciling the GAAP and non‐GAAP financial measures are included in the table below. |
