33.8% is near historic highs - The company maintained its fiscal 2025 outlook
ADS's Q1 results reflect the resilience of the construction and water management sectors. The
The company's strategic focus on Allied products and the Infiltrator business is paying off, with these segments outpacing overall growth. This diversification helps mitigate risks associated with any single market segment. The emphasis on sustainability, as evidenced by their recent Sustainability Report and recycling efforts, aligns with growing ESG concerns among investors and customers.
However, the slight decrease in profitability metrics warrants attention. Investors should monitor how ADS manages cost pressures and pricing strategies in the coming quarters to maintain its strong margins.
ADS's performance underscores the growing importance of sustainable water management solutions in urban development and infrastructure projects. The company's focus on stormwater and wastewater solutions addresses critical environmental challenges, particularly in the face of climate change and urbanization.
The new Engineering and Technology Center in Hilliard, OH, represents a significant investment in R&D, potentially leading to more innovative and efficient water management products. This could strengthen ADS's competitive position and expand its market share in the long term.
The company's commitment to recycling, keeping over half a billion pounds of plastic out of landfills annually, is commendable from an environmental perspective and aligns with circular economy principles. This approach not only reduces environmental impact but also potentially provides a cost advantage in raw materials, which could be important in maintaining profitability amidst inflationary pressures.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes references to Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Earnings per Share, non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. These measures are not intended to be substitutes for those reported in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures that comprise net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, non-cash charges and certain other expenses. The Company’s definition of Adjusted EBITDA may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures. Adjusted EBITDA is a key metric used by management and the Company’s board of directors to assess financial performance and evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s business strategies. Accordingly, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as the Company’s management and board of directors. In order to provide investors with a meaningful reconciliation, the Company has provided a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income.
Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that comprises cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures. Free Cash Flow is a measure used by management and the Company’s board of directors to assess the Company’s ability to generate cash. Accordingly, management believes that Free Cash Flow provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our ability to generate cash flow from operations after capital expenditures. In order to provide investors with a meaningful reconciliation, the Company has provided a reconciliation of cash flow from operating activities to Free Cash Flow.
Adjusted Earnings per Share excludes (gains) losses on disposals of assets or business, restructuring expenses, impairment charges and transaction costs. Adjusted Earnings per Share is a measure used by management and may be useful for investors to evaluate the Company's operational performance.
The following tables present a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income, Free Cash Flow to Cash Flow from Operating Activities, and Adjusted Earnings per Share to Diluted Earnings per Share, the most comparable GAAP measures, for each of the periods indicated.
