Insights

Southland Holdings' Q4 and full-year 2024 results reveal a company in significant financial distress, with deteriorating performance across nearly all key metrics. The 15.5% revenue decline to $980.2 million for the full year is concerning, but the profitability collapse is alarming—swinging from $35.8 million gross profit in 2023 to a $63 million gross loss in 2024.

The quarterly results show similar troubling patterns. Q4 revenue fell 15.5% year-over-year to $267.3 million, while gross profit plummeted 63.5% to just $7.7 million. Gross margin compressed dramatically from 6.7% to 2.9%. Q4 EBITDA turned negative at $(2.7) million, compared to positive $9.1 million in Q4 2023.

The Materials & Paving business appears to be the primary culprit in this performance deterioration. This segment contributed $100.6 million in annual revenue but had a staggering $83.1 million negative impact on gross results—effectively losing $0.83 for every dollar of revenue generated. This severe underperformance raises serious questions about management's operational control and business segment viability.

While management highlights their $2.57 billion backlog as a positive indicator, this substantial order book hasn't translated to profitable execution. The company's net loss attributable to stockholders widened by 446% to $105.4 million ($2.19 per share) from $19.3 million ($0.41 per share) in 2023.

The only modest positives include reduced SG&A expenses (down 21.2% in Q4) and a slightly narrowed Q4 net loss. However, these minor improvements are vastly overshadowed by the broader financial deterioration. The CEO's comments about "challenges" and focus on future opportunities appear disconnected from the severity of the current financial situation, which requires immediate and substantial corrective action.

(1)

The income tax impact of adjustments that are subject to tax is determined using the incremental statutory tax rates of the jurisdictions to which each adjustment relates for the respective periods.

(2)

Basic net loss per share is the same as diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders for the three months and the year ended December 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, because the inclusion of potential shares of common stock would have been anti-dilutive for the period presented.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes certain unaudited financial measures not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), including but not limited to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), backlog, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per share and certain ratios and other metrics derived therefrom. Note that other companies may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently, and therefore such financial measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures are not measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP and may exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing financial results. Therefore, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income, cash flows from operations or other measures of profitability, liquidity or performance under GAAP. Southland believes that these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to Southland’s financial condition and results of operations. Southland also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends. These non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which items of expense and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures.

Please see the accompanying tables for reconciliations of the following non-GAAP financial measures for Southland’s current and historical results: adjusted net income (loss) per share attributable to common stock (a non-GAAP financial measure) to net income (loss) per share attributable to common stock; and adjusted net income (loss) attributable to common stock, and Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP financial measures) to net income (loss) attributable to common stock.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on Southland’s current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of Southland’s business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of Southland’s control. Southland’s actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements.

Any forward-looking statement made by Southland in this press release is based only on information currently available to Southland and speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Southland undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.
