Item 2.02

Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On February 21, 2019, we issued a press release announcing our financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2018. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1.

The information in this Form 8-K and the attached exhibit shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

 

Item 8.01

Other Events

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures as defined under the rules of the SEC. We define EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented as EBITDA adjusted for the following: (1) merger costs, net of merger breakup fee proceeds; and (2) the loss from early extinguishment of debt.

We use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in our business operations to, among other things, evaluate the performance of our business, develop budgets and measure our performance against those budgets. We also believe that analysts and investors use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental measures to evaluate a company’s overall operating performance. However, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have material limitations as analytical tools and you should not consider them in isolation, or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. We consider them useful tools to assist us in evaluating performance because they eliminate items related to capital structure, taxes and non-cash charges. The items that we have eliminated in determining EBITDA for the periods presented are interest expense, income taxes, depreciation of fixed assets (which includes rental equipment and property and equipment) and amortization of intangible assets and, in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, any other non-recurring items described above applicable to the particular period. However, some of these eliminated items are significant to our business. For example, (i) interest expense is a necessary element of our costs and ability to generate revenue because we incur a significant amount of interest expense related to our outstanding indebtedness; (ii) payment of income taxes is a necessary element of our costs; and (iii) depreciation is a necessary element of our costs and ability to generate revenue because rental equipment is the single largest component of our total assets and we recognize a significant amount of depreciation expense over the estimated useful life of this equipment. Any measure that eliminates components of our capital structure and costs associated with carrying significant amounts of fixed assets on our consolidated balance sheet has material limitations as a performance measure. In light of the foregoing limitations, we do not rely solely on EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as performance measures and also consider our GAAP results. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered alternatives to net income, operating income or any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Because EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be calculated in the same manner by all companies, these measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures by other companies.

H&E Equipment Services Reports Fourth Quarter 2018 Results

BATON ROUGE, Louisiana — (February 21, 2019) H&E Equipment Services, Inc. (NASDAQ: HEES) today announced results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2018.

FOURTH QUARTER 2018 SUMMARY

 

   

Revenues increased 17.4% to $346.0 million versus $294.7 million a year ago.

 

   

Pre-tax income was $34.8 million, an increase of $7.2 million, or 26.1%, from a year ago.

 

   

Net income was $25.1 million in the fourth quarter compared to net income of $85.9 million a year ago. We recorded income tax expense of $9.7 million versus an income tax benefit of $58.4 million a year ago. The prior period $58.4 million tax benefit was due to a one-time revaluation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities resulting from the decrease in the corporate federal income tax rate enacted in December 2017. The effective income tax rate was 27.9% in the fourth quarter of 2018 and (211.7)% in the fourth quarter of 2017.

 

   

Adjusted EBITDA increased 26.2% to $114.6 million in the fourth quarter compared to $90.7 million a year ago, yielding a margin of 33.1% of revenues compared to 30.8% a year ago.

 

   

Rental revenues increased 27.6% to $163.0 million in the fourth quarter compared to $127.7 million a year ago.

 

   

New equipment sales increased 7.1% to $79.7 million in the fourth quarter compared to $74.4 million a year ago.

 

   

Used equipment sales increased 17.8% to $37.8 million in the fourth quarter compared to $32.1 million a year ago.

 

   

Gross margin was 35.6% compared to 34.2% a year ago. The increase in gross margin was the result of a shift in revenue mix to higher margin rental revenues combined with strong operating performance from several business segments.

 

   

Rental gross margins were 51.5% in the fourth quarter of 2018 compared to 51.0% a year ago.

Average time utilization (based on original equipment cost) was 72.9% compared to 74.2% a year ago. The size of the Company’s rental fleet based on original acquisition cost increased 25.7% from a year ago, to $1.8 billion.

 

   

Average rental rates increased 2.0% compared to a year ago and 0.5% sequentially.

 

   

Dollar utilization was 37.0% in the fourth quarter compared to 36.2% a year ago.

 

   

Average rental fleet age at December 31, 2018, was 34.5 months compared to an industry average age of 45.4 months.

Brad Barber, H&E Equipment Services’ chief executive officer and president, said, “As a result of strong demand for rental equipment and new machinery combined with solid execution throughout our business, fourth quarter total revenues increased 17.4% and Adjusted EBITDA increased 26.2% from a year ago. Project activity in the non-residential construction markets remained healthy and we continued to achieve rate improvement and high physical utilization levels, which drove a 27.6% increase in rental revenue from the prior year quarter. New equipment sales exceeded our expectations, increasing 7.1% from a year ago, which we believe to be a tough comp. The increase in new equipment sales was largely due to higher aerial and crane sales, up 95.5% and 5.7%, respectively.”

Barber concluded, “Our outlook for 2019 is positive as industry rental revenues are forecast to increase, growth in the non-residential construction markets is expected to continue and our larger contractor customers remain confident about the level of projects in their pipelines. Even with a fleet size that is 25.7%, or $361.0 million by original acquisition cost, larger than a year ago, physical utilization is currently running above year-ago levels. We remain focused on additional growth through acquisitions and warm starts, with two acquisitions in 2018 and our recent purchase of Texas-based We-Rent-It.”
