BATON ROUGE, La.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 26, 2023-- H&E Equipment Services, Inc. (NASDAQ: HEES) (“H&E”, the “Company”) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023, with fundamentally robust industry conditions, strong fleet growth and further branch expansion contributing to record adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA").

Summarizing the Company’s third quarter results, Brad Barber, chief executive officer of H&E stated, “As expected, continued strength in non-residential construction led to strong fleet growth, healthy physical fleet utilization and further rental rate appreciation. These components of a fundamentally sound industry, combined with growth in mega projects and further expansion of our branch network, delivered another quarter of outstanding financial results. Total revenues improved 23.6% compared to the same quarter in 2022, while rental revenues were 25.0% better over the same period. Our 2023 growth initiatives were a modest burden on dollar utilization, which finished the quarter at 41.5% compared to the year ago result of 42.7%. The measure improved 90 basis points on a sequential basis. Also, improvement in equipment supply chains presented an opportunity to capitalize on the sustained strength in the used equipment market, where margins on used equipment sales reached 58.5%. With a gross fleet investment of $220.1 million in the quarter, our disciplined approach to fleet management resulted in a decline in average fleet age to 41.1 months, remaining among the youngest fleets in the industry. Finally, adjusted EBITDA totaled a record $189.1 million, with a margin of 47.2%.”

Branch expansion and fleet growth once again proved significant drivers of H&E’s improved quarterly financial performance. Addressing the accomplishments, Mr. Barber stated, “We added greater branch density in the Mid-Atlantic, Southeast, Gulf Coast and Midwest regions following the addition of five new locations in the quarter and a sixth in October. With 12 branch additions through October 2023, we are comfortably within our stated range of 12 to 15 new locations for the year and we anticipate more openings during the fourth quarter. Also, our gross fleet expenditures in the third quarter contributed to a record fleet investment through the first nine months of 2023 of $595.2 million, resulting in a fleet size, as measured by original equipment cost, in excess of $2.7 billion. In view of our gross expenditures at the close of the third quarter, we are adjusting our expected range for 2023 gross fleet investment for the second time in consecutive quarters as customer demand remains elevated and availability among certain highly utilized equipment lines continues to improve. Our new range is $650 million to $700 million compared to a previously revised range of $600 million to $650 million.”

The Company believes a robust business environment will persist through the final quarter of 2023 and into 2024. Mr. Barber identified several factors in support of the encouraging outlook, stating, “Non-residential construction activity remains resilient, and we expect to benefit from an expansion in project opportunities. Mega projects should meaningfully contribute to the enhanced U.S. construction activity, which we define as possessing a construction value of $500 million and greater. These projects continue to populate our geographic footprint and have substantial equipment requirements and lengthy project completion schedules. Additionally, the value proposition of rental compared with equipment ownership is expected to lead to further growth in rental penetration. Modest rental rate improvement and favorable utilization trends are likely to continue in this attractive business environment and we intend to maintain our focus on branch expansion and fleet growth as we finalize our 2024 strategic initiatives.”

FINANCIAL DISCUSSION FOR THIRD QUARTER 2023

The non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $5.7 million was identified in connection with an interim goodwill impairment test and related to our parts business segment. The segment experienced a sustained decline in volume and actual revenue and earnings compared to our planned revenue and earnings as utilized in our most recent quantitative goodwill impairment analysis, and following our business’s dispositions and strategic shift to a rental focus. The impairment charge will not result in any cash expenditures and will not affect the Company’s cash position, liquidity, availability or covenant test under its senior secured credit facility.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains certain non-GAAP measures (EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Income from Operations, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per share and the disaggregation of equipment rental revenues and cost of sales numbers) detailed below. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures as defined under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). We define Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented as EBITDA adjusted for the impairment of goodwill.

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 it eliminates items related to components of our 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 or liquidity under GAAP and, accordingly, 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 used by other companies.

We use Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations, Adjusted Net Income from Continuing Operations, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income from Continuing Operations per Share, and Adjusted Net Income per Share ("Adjusted Income Measures") in our business operations to, among other things, analyze our financial performance on a comparative period basis without the effects of significant one-time, non-recurring items. We define the Adjusted Income Measures for the periods presented as Income from Operations, Net Income and Net Income per Share, respectively, adjusted for the impairment of goodwill. Additionally, we believe Adjusted Income Measures, in combination with financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP, provide investors with useful information and additional perspective concerning future profitability. However, Adjusted Income Measures are not measurements of our financial performance under GAAP and, accordingly, should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to GAAP Income from Operations, Net Income and Net Income per Share. Because Adjusted Income Measures may not be calculated in the same manner by all companies, these measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures can be found in the financial tables accompanying this earnings release.
