FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Limbach Holdings, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2022 Results
Revenue from Owner Direct Relationships Segment (“ODR”) up 50.3% year-over-year
ODR Segment Accounted for Approximately 54.4% of Consolidated Gross Profit
Conference Call Scheduled for 9:00 am ET on May 11, 2022
WARRENDALE, PA – May 10, 2022 – Limbach Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: LMB) today announced its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The company reported consolidated revenue of $114.8 million, which was an improvement of 1.3% compared to the first quarter of 2021. Gross margins improved to 16.0% from 15.2% for the first quarter of 2021 and drove a $1.1 million increase in gross profit year-over-year. ODR segment revenue accounted for 37.4% of consolidated revenue in the first quarter of 2022 while contributing approximately 54.4% of consolidated gross profit. We believe that the continued shift in revenue mix to the ODR segment provides for greater revenue stability and higher gross margins.
Charlie Bacon, Limbach’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Our first quarter 2022 results demonstrate strong execution in transitioning the business model toward a greater focus on serving the needs of facility owners. Year-over-year, we generated significant growth in revenue and gross profit dollars in the ODR segment, while also driving stronger gross margins in the GCR segment due to improved project selection and execution. While the first quarter has historically been the company’s weakest quarter seasonally, profitability nonetheless improved year-over-year. As we’ve previously communicated, we continue to believe that business activity will be back half-loaded similar to what we saw in 2021. The demand picture in our target verticals, such as healthcare, data centers, R&D and industrial, continues to be strong, with project sales well ahead of where they were at this time last year. ODR backlog grew from $98.0 million to $106.9 million at the end of the quarter, up 9.1% from December 31, 2021 and 102.3% from March 31, 2021. We currently expect the majority of this backlog will be recognized as revenue this year.”
Mr. Bacon continued, “The ODR segment continues to account for an increasing proportion of total revenue, and an even greater proportion of gross profit. In the first quarter, the ODR segment contributed more than 50% of total gross profit for the first time. In addition to the long-term benefits we have articulated regarding this strategic shift in our business, the emphasis on ODR is serving us well in the current, constrained supply chain environment. For example, we’re continuing to see building owners focus more of their capital investment on maintaining existing equipment and mechanical systems, given the currently longer lead times for new equipment. Our growing maintenance base has us well-positioned to capitalize on this dynamic given the associated pull-through work. Time & Materials work, although a small percentage of our ODR segment revenue, is among our most profitable lines of business.”
Mr. Bacon concluded, “From an operational perspective, we believe the steps we have taken to de-risk the business have been successful. We are also encouraged by sales activity that is pacing well-ahead of where it was at this time last year. This success gives us confidence to introduce 2022 financial guidance for which we expect consolidated revenue to be in a range from $510 million to $540 million with Adjusted EBITDA of between $25 million and $29 million.”
The following are results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021:
•Consolidated revenue was $114.8 million, an increase of 1.3% from $113.3 million. GCR segment revenue of $71.9 million was down 15.2%, while ODR segment revenue of $42.9 million increased by $14.4 million, or 50.3%.
•Gross margin increased to 16.0%, up from 15.2%. On a dollar basis, total gross profit was $18.3 million, compared to $17.2 million. GCR gross profit decreased $1.0 million, or 11.0%, largely due to lower revenue despite slightly higher margins and total
net gross profit write-downs of $1.4 million compared to $0.5 million in the prior year quarter. ODR gross profit increased $2.1 million, or 27.4%, due to an increase in revenue, despite lower margins because of revenue mix within the segment.
•Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $1.6 million, to $18.7 million, compared to $17.1 million. This increase included costs incurred by the newly acquired Jake Marshall entities, an increase in travel and entertainment related expenses, and an increase in costs associated with professional fees, partially offset by a decrease in payroll related expenses. As a percent of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses were 16.3%, up from 15.1% in the first quarter of 2021.
•Interest expense, net was $0.5 million compared to $1.3 million. This significant decrease was due to our refinancing of the 2019 debt facilities in February 2021, replacing them with debt facilities that carry a lower cost of financing, as well as a lower overall level of indebtedness.
•Net loss for the first quarter of 2022 was $1.5 million as compared to $2.3 million in the first quarter of 2021. Net loss per share for both basic and diluted decreased to $0.15 as compared to net loss per share for both basic and diluted of $0.25 in the prior year. The decrease in net loss was primarily driven by a prior year $2.0 million pre-tax loss on early debt extinguishment in conjunction with the refinancing of the 2019 debt facilities.
•Adjusted EBITDA was $3.4 million for the first quarter of 2022 as compared to $2.1 million for the same period of 2021, an increase of 65.5%. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily attributable to the $1.1 million increase in gross profit.
•Net cash used in operating activities was $3.0 million as compared to $17.4 million. The increase in operating cash flows was primarily attributable to a decrease in our underbilled position and timing of payments.
Balance Sheet and Backlog
At March 31, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $18.2 million. We had current assets of $210.0 million and current liabilities of $141.6 million at March 31, 2022, representing a current ratio of 1.48x compared to 1.49x at December 31, 2021. Working capital was $68.4 million at March 31, 2022, an increase of $5.2 million from December 31, 2021. At March 31, 2022, we had $9.4 million in borrowings against our revolving credit facility and $3.3 million for standby letters of credit, and carried a term loan balance of $33.0 million.
Total backlog at March 31, 2022 was $447.6 million as compared to $435.2 million as of December 31, 2021. At March 31, 2022, GCR and ODR segment backlog accounted for $340.7 million and $106.9 million of that consolidated total, respectively.
2022 Guidance
Limbach announces the following guidance for FY 2022:
| Revenue | $510 million - $540 million |
|---|---|
| Adjusted EBITDA | $25 million - $29 million |
With respect to projected 2022 Adjusted EBITDA, a quantitative reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort due to the high variability, complexity and low visibility with respect to taxes and other items, which are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA. We expect the variability of this item to have a potentially unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on future GAAP financial results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In assessing the performance of our business, management utilizes a variety of financial and performance measures. The key measure is Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure. 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 believe that Adjusted EBITDA is 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. We understand that Adjusted EBITDA is 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. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, 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 cannot be achieved without incurring the costs that the measure excludes. A reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA, the most comparable GAAP measure, is 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.
