Arcosa, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2021 Results

  • Results Ahead of Expectations on Strong Construction Products Performance
  • Full Year 2021 Adjusted EBITDA Guidance Range Increased to $270 Million to $290 Million Following Recently-Completed StonePoint Materials Acquisition
  • Liquidity and Balance Sheet Remain Solid After Inaugural Debt Offering and Acquisition
  • Issuance of First Full Year Sustainability Report Advances Our ESG Commitment

DALLAS--()--Arcosa, Inc. (NYSE: ACA) (“Arcosa,” the “Company,” “We,” or “Our”), a provider of infrastructure-related products and solutions, today announced results for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.

First Quarter Highlights (All comparisons are versus the prior-year quarter unless noted otherwise)

  • Revenues of $440.4 million, down 10%
  • Net income of $15.9 million and Adjusted Net Income of $17.6 million
  • Diluted EPS of $0.32 and Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.35
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $56.5 million, down 25%
  • Operating cash flow of $0.4 million and free cash flow of $(19.5) million

Commenting on the Company’s performance, Antonio Carrillo, President and Chief Executive Officer, noted, “Our portfolio demonstrated further resilience as our first quarter results came in better than expected due to strong performance from our Construction Products businesses. Construction activity was robust, particularly in our key Texas markets, producing improved profitability. We finished the quarter with strong momentum as better weather returned, helping to offset the negative impacts from Winter Storm Uri that broadly impacted our Texas and Southern United States footprint in February.

“Order activity for our utility, traffic, and telecom structures businesses also remained healthy during the quarter. We continue to see solid growth drivers for infrastructure products, including electrical grid hardening, connection of renewables, and the wireless telecom buildout.

“We have also dealt with rapid steel price inflation in a disciplined manner. We proactively implemented price increases across our businesses in the fourth quarter of 2020, which has helped mitigate the impact on margins. However, we expect our steel-related businesses to continue to experience the impact of inflationary pressures. In our barge business, high steel prices continue to impact conversion of inquiries to new orders. Given soft order activity, we announced the planned idling of one of our three barge manufacturing plants, in an effort to match our operating footprint to industry demand.”

Carrillo also noted, “During the first quarter, we made measurable progress advancing our ESG initiative and released our first full year sustainability report in mid-April. At Arcosa, our goal is to integrate sustainability into our daily practices as well as our long-term strategy. I want to thank our entire team for their dedication to ESG.”

2021 Outlook and Guidance

The Company raised its 2021 full year guidance to incorporate the acquisition of StonePoint Materials, a top 25 U.S. aggregates company, which closed on April 9, 2021. The new guidance incorporates StonePoint’s expected 2021 results from the date of acquisition.

  • Increase in full year 2021 revenue guidance to a range of $1.88 billion to $2.00 billion, from prior guidance range of $1.78 billion to $1.90 billion.
  • Increase in full year 2021 Adjusted EBITDA guidance to a range of $270 million to $290 million, from prior guidance range of $250 million to $270 million.

Commenting on the outlook for 2021, Carrillo noted, “Overall, our key growth businesses, Construction Products and Engineered Structures, are positioned well for the future, and we remain optimistic on a recovery in our barge and rail components businesses once steel prices moderate.

“The recent StonePoint acquisition is an outstanding strategic fit for Arcosa, aligning with our strategy to expand our Aggregates business in our current footprint and to enter new, attractive geographies.

“Our updated 2021 Adjusted EBITDA guidance puts us on a path to meet or exceed 2020’s strong results. Our balance sheet and liquidity remain solid, and we expect to supplement this with another year of healthy free cash flow. We look forward to integrating StonePoint and will continue to look for other disciplined capital allocation opportunities in attractive infrastructure markets.”

First Quarter 2021 Results and Commentary

Construction Products

  • Revenues increased 3% to $153.2 million in the first quarter, led by higher volumes in our legacy natural aggregates business, as well as revenues from acquisitions completed in the second half of 2020.
  • Revenues were lower in our specialty materials businesses than compared to the pre-pandemic first quarter of 2020.
  • Our trench shoring business improved during the first quarter, with revenues up 3% over last year.
  • First quarter Adjusted Segment EBITDA increased 2% to $32.9 million, representing a 21.5% margin in both the current and prior year, despite a full quarter impact of COVID-19 and the impact of Winter Storm Uri on 2021 results.

Engineered Structures

  • First quarter revenues were down 7% year-over-year to $207.0 million, driven primarily by lower volumes in wind towers partially due to the temporary idling of a facility for a product changeover completed during the quarter. Volumes were higher for utility structures and storage tanks, and they also benefited from the addition of the traffic and telecom structures product lines acquired during 2020.
  • Adjusted Segment EBITDA decreased 21% to $26.4 million, representing a 12.8% margin compared to a 15.1% margin a year ago. The year-over-year decrease in EBITDA and margin was primarily due to inefficiencies associated with the temporary idling of a wind tower facility and the ramp up of a new utility structures facility.
  • The decline in Adjusted Segment EBITDA was partially offset by increased volumes and improved margins in our storage tank business and a $3.9 million pre-tax gain on the sale of a non-operating facility.
  • Order activity for utility structures, wind towers, and the newly acquired product lines was healthy during the quarter driven by spending in transmission, renewable energy, telecom, and traffic markets.
  • The combined backlog for utility, wind, and related structures increased to $379.5 million from $334.0 million at the end of 2020.

Transportation Products

  • First quarter revenues were $80.2 million, down 31% year-over-year. Barge revenues decreased 35% driven by lower hopper and tank barge deliveries. Steel components revenues declined 20% year-over-year but increased sequentially, as the new railcar market showed signs of a potential bottoming.
  • Adjusted Segment EBITDA decreased 53% year-over-year to $8.7 million, representing a 10.8% margin compared to a 16.0% margin a year ago. Segment margins decreased due to declines in operational efficiencies from reduced capacity utilization.
  • Dry barge inquiries continue to support a healthy level of replacement demand; however, persistently high steel prices continue to delay order conversion. The barge business received orders of approximately $16 million in the quarter, for a book-to-bill of 0.3. Backlog at the end of the first quarter decreased to $133.2 million from $175.5 million at the start of the year.
  • During the quarter, we took further steps to reduce our costs and announced the planned idling of our Madisonville, Louisiana barge facility in the third quarter of 2021.
  • We remain confident in the medium and long-term fundamentals for our Transportation Products businesses once short-term macroeconomic conditions improve.

Corporate and other Financial Notes

  • Corporate expenses increased to $14.5 million in the first quarter, including $1.7 million of acquisition-related transaction and integration costs, primarily from the StonePoint acquisition that closed in April 2021.
  • The Company continues to expect Corporate expenses of approximately $13-14 million per quarter for the balance of 2021, excluding non-recurring acquisition and integration expenses. The StonePoint acquisition is expected to add approximately $6 million of non-recurring expenses in the second quarter of 2021, and approximately $2 million per quarter in each of the third and fourth quarters.
  • In February 2021, Winter Storm Uri, which impacted Texas and the broader Southern United States, negatively impacted our first quarter performance as we lost more than one week of production across a significant part of our operating footprint. We estimate a decline in operating profit of $4.0 to $5.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 related to the storm, primarily in our Construction Products segment.

Cash Flow and Liquidity

  • During the first quarter, operating cash flow was essentially break-even due to a $46.7 million increase in working capital. The increase in working capital was primarily due to higher accounts receivables, partially due to shipments delayed during the quarter due to Winter Storm Uri, and strategic raw material purchases.
  • We invested $19.9 million in capital expenditures resulting in free cash flow of $(19.5) million for the first quarter.
  • We returned approximately $2.4 million in dividends to shareholders during the first quarter.
  • As previously announced, in April we issued $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.375% senior notes that mature in 2029 which was used, in part, to fund the $375 million acquisition of StonePoint.
  • We ended the quarter with total liquidity of $453.2 million, including $81.9 million of cash.
  • Net debt to Adjusted EBITDA was 0.6X for the trailing twelve months and 1.9X after giving effect to the April senior notes and StonePoint acquisition.

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income

($ in millions)

(unaudited)

 

“EBITDA” is defined as net income plus interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, and amortization. We adjust EBITDA for certain items that are not reflective of the normal earnings of our business (“Adjusted EBITDA”). GAAP does not define EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA and they should not be considered as alternatives to earnings measures defined by GAAP, including net income. We use Adjusted EBITDA to assess the operating performance of our consolidated business, as a metric for incentive-based compensation, as a measure within our lending arrangements, and as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting as we believe that it closely correlates to long-term shareholder value. As a widely used metric by analysts, investors, and competitors in our industry, we believe Adjusted EBITDA also assists investors in comparing a company's performance on a consistent basis without regard to depreciation, depletion, amortization, and other items which can vary significantly depending on many factors. “Adjusted EBITDA Margin” is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenues.

Reconciliation of Adjusted Diluted EPS and Free Cash Flow

(unaudited)

 

GAAP does not define “Adjusted Diluted EPS” and it should not be considered as an alternative to earnings measures defined by GAAP, including diluted EPS. We use this metric to assess the operating performance of our consolidated business. We adjust diluted EPS for certain items that are not reflective of the normal operations of our business to provide investors with what we believe is a more consistent comparison of earnings performance from period to period.

GAAP does not define “Free Cash Flow” and it should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow measures defined by GAAP, including cash flow from operating activities. We use this metric to assess the liquidity of our consolidated business. We present this metric for the convenience of investors who use such metrics in their analysis and for shareholders who need to understand the metrics we use to assess performance and monitor our cash and liquidity positions. We define Free Cash Flow as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures.

Reconciliation of Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA

(unaudited)

 

GAAP does not define “Net Debt” and it should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow or liquidity measures defined by GAAP. The Company uses Net Debt, which it defines as total debt minus cash and cash equivalents to determine the extent to which the Company’s outstanding debt obligations would be satisfied by its cash and cash equivalents on hand. The Company also uses "Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA", which it defines as Net Debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing twelve months as a metric of its current leverage position. We present this metric for the convenience of investors who use such metrics in their analysis and for shareholders who need to understand the metrics we use to assess performance and monitor our cash and liquidity positions.
