Custom Truck One Source, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2024 Results and Updates Full-Year Guidance

KANSAS CITY, Mo., August 01, 2024--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Custom Truck One Source, Inc. (NYSE: CTOS), a leading provider of specialty equipment to the electric utility, telecom, rail, forestry, waste management and other infrastructure-related end markets, today reported financial results for its three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

CTOS Second-Quarter Highlights

  • Total revenue of $423.0 million, a decrease of $33.8 million, or 7.4%, compared to $456.8 million for the second quarter of 2023 primarily due to fewer rental asset sales and lower rental demand from the utility end market

  • Gross profit of $89.3 million, a decline of $21.4 million, or 19.3%, compared to $110.6 million for the second quarter of 2023

  • Adjusted Gross Profit of $133.9 million, a decrease of $20.4 million, or 13.2%, compared to $154.2 million for the second quarter of 2023

  • Net loss of $24.5 million, compared to net income of $11.6 million in the second quarter of 2023

  • Adjusted EBITDA of $80.1 million, a decrease of $23.1 million, or 22.4%, compared to $103.2 million in the second quarter of 2023

"Despite a sequential decline in net income, we delivered sequential Adjusted EBITDA growth in the second quarter compared to the first quarter of 2024. While we are not satisfied with our financial results for the first half of the year, we believe CTOS is well-positioned to capitalize on the secular tailwinds we see in the end markets we serve, driven by AI and data center investment, electrification, and utility grid upgrades. As we have discussed on our recent earnings calls, we continue to be impacted by a slow-down in work in our core T&D markets, which primarily impacts our ERS segment. We believe that this decline is temporary, and we are already seeing signs of improvement in the third quarter. We anticipate a return to growth in 2025," said Ryan McMonagle, Chief Executive Officer of CTOS. "We continue to see good demand in our infrastructure, rail and telecom end markets, which all contributed to our TES segment performance. Segment sales are up 6% for the first half of 2024, on top of the nearly 30% growth we experienced in fiscal 2023. Our sales backlog has returned to a more normalized level of just under six months, as OEM production and overall supply chain continue to improve," McMonagle added.

(a)

Ending OEC — Ending original equipment cost ("OEC") is the original equipment cost of units at the end of the measurement period.

(b)

Average OEC on rent — Average OEC on rent is calculated as the weighted-average OEC on rent during the stated period.

(c)

Fleet utilization — total number of days the rental equipment was rented during a specified period of time divided by the total number of days available during the same period and weighted based on OEC.

(d)

OEC on rent yield ("ORY") — a measure of return realized by our rental fleet during a period. ORY is calculated as rental revenue (excluding freight recovery and ancillary fees) during the stated period divided by the Average OEC on rent for the same period. For periods of less than 12 months, the ORY is adjusted to an annualized basis.

(e)

Sales order backlog — purchase orders received for customized and stock equipment. Sales order backlog should not be considered an accurate measure of future net sales.

Management Commentary
In the second quarter of 2024, total revenue was $423.0 million, a decrease of 7.4% from the second quarter of 2023. Second quarter 2024 rental revenue decreased 15.7% to $103.0 million, compared to $122.2 million in the second quarter of 2023, due to lower utilization and average OEC on rent than we anticipated. Equipment sales decreased 5.5% in the second quarter of 2024 to $285.6 million, compared to $302.1 million in the second quarter of 2023, primarily driven by lower rental asset sales of used equipment. The Company continues to be impacted by end-market supply chain constraints, environmental, regulatory and customer financing factors affecting the timing of transmission job starts. These delays contributed to both lower than expected rental revenue and rental asset sales during this quarter.

In our ERS segment, rental revenue in the second quarter of 2024 was $100.7 million compared to $117.8 million in the second quarter of 2023, a 14.5% decrease. Fleet utilization declined to 71.7% compared to 81.7% in the second quarter of 2023. Average OEC on rent decreased 13% year-over-year, primarily as a result of the lower utilization in the quarter. Equipment sales decreased 25.6% in the second quarter of 2024 to $37.7 million compared to $50.7 million in the second quarter of 2023, due to market demand softness as a result of the current utility end market environment. ERS gross profit in the second quarter of 2024 and 2023 was $39.8 million and $54.6 million, respectively. Adjusted Gross Profit in the segment was $83.3 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to $97.4 million in the second quarter of 2023. Adjusted gross profit from rentals, which excludes depreciation of rental equipment, decreased to $71.4 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to $86.5 million in the second quarter of 2023.

Revenue in our TES segment decreased 1.4% to $247.9 million in the second quarter of 2024, from $251.4 million in the second quarter of 2023, as normalized supply chains have reduced product lead times and decreased the need for our customers to reserve equipment far in advance. Gross profit declined by 7.8% to $42.4 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to $46.0 million in the second quarter of 2023. TES saw a reduction in backlog of 45% to $478.2 million compared to the second quarter of 2023, primarily as a result of utility market softness.

APS segment revenue remained flat in the second quarter of 2024 at $36.7 million, compared to $36.9 million in the second quarter of 2023. Gross profit margin decreased to 19.4% in the second quarter of 2024 from 27.3% in the second quarter of 2023 due to the lower levels of tools and accessories rentals and an increase in cost of revenue due to higher costs of materials.

Net loss was $24.5 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to net income of $11.6 million for the second quarter of 2023. The $36.1 million decrease in net income is primarily due to lower revenue leading to decreased gross profit and higher interest expense on variable-rate debt and variable-rate floor plan liabilities.

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2024 was $80.1 million, a decrease of 22.4%, compared to $103.2 million for the second quarter of 2023. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was largely driven by a decline in used equipment sales in our ERS segment as well as higher costs associated with variable-rate floorplan liabilities as a result of higher rates and inventory levels.

As of June 30, 2024, cash and cash equivalents was $8.1 million, Total Debt outstanding was $1,551.7 million, Net Debt was $1,543.7 million and Net Leverage Ratio was 4.11x. Availability under the senior secured credit facility was $159.5 million as of June 30, 2024, and based on our borrowing base, we have an additional $328.3 million of availability that we can potentially utilize by upsizing our existing facility. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, Ending OEC decreased by $5.099 million as we shifted allocation of new equipment builds in favor of our TES segment in order to capitalize on a continuing solid demand environment for vocational trucks. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, CTOS purchased $16.7 million of its common stock.

OUTLOOK
We are updating our full-year revenue and Adjusted EBITDA1, 4 guidance for 2024. Our ERS segment has continued to experience near-term pressure in demand in the utility market as a result of financing, supply chain, and regulatory factors. These headwinds in our utility end markets are driving lower than anticipated OEC on rent in our core ERS segment and will likely continue for the remainder of this year. Regarding TES, supply chain improvements, healthy inventory levels, and more normalized backlog levels continue to improve our ability to produce and deliver more units in 2024, albeit at a lower growth rate than previously expected. Our customers continue to need our equipment but are choosing to delay purchase decisions influenced by both their expectation of lower interest rates to come and the uncertainty surrounding the upcoming election. While we are lowering our consolidated revenue and Adjusted EBITDA1, 4 guidance for the year, we continue to focus on generating positive free cash flow in 2024, but expect it to be lower than our previous target of generating more than $100 million of levered free cash flow2, 4. Also, we now expect to deliver a net leverage ratio3, 4 that will modestly decrease from current levels by the end of the fiscal year. "We continue to have confidence in the long-term strength of our end markets and the continued execution by our teams to profitably grow our business, better serve our customers and position CTOS for future growth. Our updated outlook reflects the risks associated with some near-term challenges for our customers in the T&D sector, which we now expect could persist through the balance of the fiscal year." said Ryan McMonagle, Chief Executive Officer of CTOS.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP performance measure that we use to monitor our results of operations, to measure performance against debt covenants and performance relative to competitors. Refer to the section below entitled "Non-GAAP Financial and Performance Measures" for further information about Adjusted EBITDA.

2

 

Levered Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities, less cash flow for investing activities, excluding acquisitions, plus acquisition of inventory through floor plan payables – non-trade less repayment of floor plan payables – non-trade, both of which are included in cash flow from financing activities in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Net leverage ratio is a non-GAAP performance measure used by management, and we believe it provides useful information to investors because it is an important measure to evaluate our debt levels and progress toward leverage targets, which is consistent with the manner our lenders and management use this measure. Refer to the section below entitled "Non-GAAP Financial and Performance Measures" for further information about net leverage ratio.

CTOS is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of its forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA, Net Leverage Ratio and Levered Free Cash Flow for the year ending December 31, 2024 to their respective most directly comparable GAAP financial measure due to the high variability and difficulty in predicting certain items that affect such GAAP measures including, but not limited to, customer buyout requests on rentals with rental purchase options and income tax expense. Adjusted EBITDA, Net Leverage Ratio and Levered Free Cash Flow should not be used to predict their respective most directly comparable GAAP measure as the differences between the respective measures are variable and unpredictable.

CUSTOM TRUCK ONE SOURCE, INC.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL AND PERFORMANCE MEASURES
In our press release and schedules, and on the related conference call, we report certain financial measures that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). We utilize these financial measures to manage our business on a day-to-day basis and some of these measures are commonly used in our industry to evaluate performance by excluding items considered to be non-recurring. We believe these non-GAAP measures provide investors expanded insight to assess performance, in addition to the standard GAAP-based financial measures. The press release schedules reconcile the most directly comparable GAAP measure to each non-GAAP measure that we refer to. Although management evaluates and presents these non-GAAP measures for the reasons described herein, please be aware that these non-GAAP measures have limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for revenue, operating income/loss, net income/loss, earnings/loss per share or any other comparable measure prescribed by GAAP. In addition, we may calculate and/or present these non-GAAP financial measures differently than measures with the same or similar names that other companies report, and as a result, the non-GAAP measures we report may not be comparable to those reported by others.

Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP performance measure that we use to monitor our results of operations, to measure performance against debt covenants and performance relative to competitors. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is a useful performance measure because it allows for an effective evaluation of operating performance, without regard to financing methods or capital structures. We exclude the items identified in the reconciliations of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts are either non-recurring or can vary substantially within the industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, including the method by which the assets were acquired, and capital structures. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historical costs of depreciable assets, none of which are reflected in Adjusted EBITDA. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an indication that results will be unaffected by the items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be identical to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation, and other items that we do not view as indicative of ongoing performance. Our Adjusted EBITDA includes an adjustment to exclude the effects of purchase accounting adjustments when calculating the cost of inventory and used equipment sold. When inventory or equipment is purchased in connection with a business combination, the assets are revalued to their current fair values for accounting purposes. The consideration transferred (i.e., the purchase price) in a business combination is allocated to the fair values of the assets as of the acquisition date, with amortization or depreciation recorded thereafter following applicable accounting policies; however, this may not be indicative of the actual cost to acquire inventory or new equipment that is added to product inventory or the rental fleets apart from a business acquisition. We also include an adjustment to remove the impact of accounting for certain of our rental contracts with customers containing a rental purchase option that are accounted for under GAAP as a sales-type lease. We include this adjustment because we believe continuing to reflect the transactions as an operating lease better reflects the economics of the transactions given our large portfolio of rental contracts. These, and other, adjustments to GAAP net income or loss that are applied to derive Adjusted EBITDA are specified by our senior secured credit agreements.

Adjusted Gross Profit. We present total gross profit excluding rental equipment depreciation ("Adjusted Gross Profit") as a non-GAAP financial performance measure. This measure differs from the GAAP definition of gross profit, as we do not include the impact of depreciation expense, which represents non-cash expense. We use this measure to evaluate operating margins and the effectiveness of the cost of our rental fleet.

Net Debt. We present the non-GAAP financial measure "Net Debt," which is total debt (the most comparable GAAP measure, calculated as current and long-term debt, excluding deferred financing fees, plus current and long-term finance lease obligations) minus cash and cash equivalents. We believe this non-GAAP measure is useful to investors to evaluate our financial position.

Net Leverage Ratio. Net leverage ratio is a non-GAAP performance measure used by management, and we believe it provides useful information to investors because it is an important measure to evaluate our debt levels and progress toward leverage targets, which is consistent with the manner our lenders and management use this measure. We define net leverage ratio as net debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA for the previous twelve-month period ("last twelve months," or "LTM").

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), as adjusted for provision for income taxes, interest expense, net, depreciation of rental equipment and non-rental depreciation and amortization, and further adjusted for the impact of the fair value mark-up of acquired rental fleet, business acquisition and merger-related costs, including integration, the impact of accounting for certain of our rental contracts with customers that are accounted for under GAAP as sales-type lease and stock compensation expense. This non-GAAP measure is subject to certain limitations.

(1)

Represents the non-cash impact of purchase accounting, net of accumulated depreciation, on the cost of equipment and inventory sold. The equipment and inventory acquired received a purchase accounting step-up in basis, which is a non-cash adjustment to the equipment cost pursuant to our ABL Credit Agreement and Indenture.

(2)

Represents transaction and process improvement costs related to acquisitions of businesses, including post-acquisition integration costs, which are recognized within operating expenses in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). These expenses are comprised of professional consultancy, legal, tax and accounting fees. Also included are expenses associated with the integration of acquired businesses. These expenses are presented as adjustments to net income (loss) pursuant to our ABL Credit Agreement and Indenture.

(3)

Represents the impact of sales-type lease accounting for certain leases containing rental purchase options (or "RPOs"), as the application of sales-type lease accounting is not deemed to be representative of the ongoing cash flows of the underlying rental contracts. The adjustments are made pursuant to our ABL Credit Agreement and Indenture. The components of this adjustment are presented in the table below:
