CEO Comment:
Ryan Greenawalt
Ryan Greenawalt, Chief Executive Officer of Alta, said “We are extremely pleased with our third quarter performance as our financial and operational results continue to reflect our unique position in the market and successful growth initiatives. Total revenues increased37.3%, or $110.0million, to $405.0million. As of the end of the third quarter, we have generated $1.1 billion in total revenue, roughly equal to our total revenue for the full year of 2021. Our trajectory for Adjusted EBITDA also continues to grow, up 39.2% versus the year-ago quarter, and has nearly surpassed 2021 levels on a year-to-date basis. We also continued to achieve GAAP net income this quarter versus a loss a year ago. Our M&A strategy is proving very successful and is significantly contributing to our accelerated growth. Overall, the third quarter continued to reflect the consistency in our business and the stability in our end-user markets.”
Regarding business conditions, Mr. Greenawalt noted, “While certain segments of the economy are slowing, our flexible business model, broad-based market exposure, and the breadth of our product portfolio helps protect our business from swings in macro trends as proven by our consistently strong growth thus far this year. Customer sentiment is an indicator we constantly monitor, and it remains positive for the balance of this year and into 2023. On a longer-term basis, we also remain encouraged as several federal initiatives are likely to positively impact the extension of the cycle including the $550 billion infrastructure bill, and the Chips and Inflation Reduction Acts, which support an intensified effort on manufacturing and renewable projects in the United States.”
In conclusion, Mr. Greenawalt commented, “As demonstrated by our financial results and recent transactions, our growth strategy remains very much intact, and the pipeline remains robust. On a trailing twelve-month basis, our acquisitions since the IPO have added $440.0 million in revenue and a significant amount of EBITDA to the enterprise. Our acquisition of Yale Industrial Trucks, Inc., a privately held Yale lift truck dealer with five locations in southeastern Canada, is progressing very well and we have added several new OEMs to expand our product portfolio to further support our customers’ needs. We recently closed our acquisition of Ecoverse Industries, which provides us with the master dealer rights to distribute best-in-class environmental equipment and parts to dealers and customers throughout North America. This immediately positions Alta as an industry leader in the rapidly growing market of eco-friendly waste solutions and material recycling, which we believe represents a significant opportunity for our business.”
Full Year 2022 Financial Guidance:
- The Company is increasing its guidance range and currently expects to report Adjusted EBITDA between $155 million and $158 million, net of new equipment floorplan interest, for the full year 2022. This is an increase from between $147 million and $152 million, as previously expected.
