Business Overview

The Company is a Delaware corporation headquartered in Thornton, Colorado. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein include the accounts of Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries including Brundage-Bone Concrete Pumping, Inc. ("Brundage-Bone"), Camfaud Group Limited ("Camfaud") and Eco-Pan, Inc. ("Eco-Pan").

As part of the Company's business growth and capital allocation strategy, the Company views strategic acquisitions as opportunities to enhance our value proposition through differentiation and competitiveness. Depending on the deal size and characteristics of the M&A opportunities available, we expect to allocate capital for opportunistic M&A utilizing cash on the balance sheet and the Company's revolving line of credit.

In recent years, we have successfully executed on our M&A strategy. This includes our acquisition of Templant Hire Limited ("Templant") in April 2026 for total cash consideration, net of cash acquired, of $11.1 million, which expanded our operations into the temporary power solution market in the United Kingdom, complementing Camfaud's existing concrete pumping operations and enhancing the Company's ability to offer broader service capabilities to customers across the construction and infrastructure sectors. The Company's management believes this expansion into temporary power represents a strategic growth opportunity and is consistent with the Company's broader strategy of diversifying its service offerings within existing geographic markets.

The results of Templant's operations are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements under our U.K. Operations segment from April 1, 2026. Because Templant was acquired during the current fiscal period and operates in a new service line, period-over-period comparisons of certain revenue and operating metrics may not be fully comparable to prior periods.

See Note 3 of Part I, Item I in this document for more information on acquisition activity.

Total revenue. Total revenues were $106.8 million for the three months ended April 30, 2026 compared to $94.0 million for the three months ended April 30, 2025. Revenue by segment is further discussed below.

U.S. Concrete Pumping. Revenue for our U.S. Concrete Pumping segment increased by 15.2%, or $9.4 million, from $62.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 to $71.5 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, primarily attributable to (1) an increase in commercial and infrastructure construction volumes and pricing, mostly related to growing data center and infrastructure projects, and (2) generally more favorable weather conditions across our U.S. regions. These improvements were partially offset by a continued slowdown in light commercial construction and subdued residential construction demand, mostly due to high interest rates and economic uncertainty through the second quarter of 2026.

U.S. Concrete Waste Management Services. Revenue for the U.S. Concrete Waste Management Services segment improved by 12.7%, or $2.3 million, from $18.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 to $20.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2026. The increase in revenue was driven by organic volume growth, growing data center and infrastructure projects, and pricing improvements.

U.K. Operations. Revenue for our U.K. Operations segment increased by 8.2%, or $1.1 million, from $13.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 to $14.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2026. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, revenue increased 3.6% year-over-year, driven by a $0.7 million contribution from Templant, partially offset by lower volumes due to continued softness in commercial construction demand.

Gross margin. Our gross margin for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was 38.6% was largely flat compared to 38.5% in the second quarter of fiscal 2025.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses ("G&A"). G&A expenses for the three months ended April 30, 2026 were $29.2 million, an increase of $1.3 million from $27.9 million in the three months ended April 30, 2025. G&A expenses as a percent of revenue were 27.3% for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to 29.7% for the same period a year ago. The increase in G&A expenses is primarily related to increases in labor costs of $1.0 million and stock-based compensation expense of $0.5 million, partially offset by a decrease in amortization of intangible assets of $0.6 million.

For the second quarter of fiscal 2026, excluding amortization of intangible assets of $2.5 million, stock-based compensation expense of $1.0 million, and depreciation expense of $0.5 million, G&A expenses were $25.2 million (23.6% of revenue). For the second quarter of fiscal 2025, excluding amortization of intangible assets of $3.0 million, depreciation expense of $0.6 million, and stock-based compensation expense of $0.5 million, G&A expenses were $23.8 million (25.3% of revenue). The increase in G&A expenses is primarily related to an increase in labor costs of $1.0 million.

Income tax expense (benefit)

Income tax expense (benefit). For the three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025 the Company's effective tax rate was 34.4% and 33.3%, respectively. The change in the effective tax rate was largely driven by an increase in discrete items including prior period state tax adjustments.

Gross margin. Our gross margin for the six months ended April 30, 2026 was 37.1% compared to 37.4% in the six months ended April 30, 2025. The slight decrease in gross margin was primarily related to fuel and repair and maintenance cost inflation.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses ("G&A"). G&A expenses for the six months ended April 30, 2026 were $56.7 million, an increase of $1.0 million from $55.7 million in the six months ended April 30, 2025. G&A expenses as a percent of revenue were 28.7% for the six months ended April 30, 2026 compared to 30.9% for the same period a year ago. The increase in G&A expenses is primarily related to an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $0.7 million, labor costs of $0.6 million and property and use tax costs of $0.5 million, partially offset by a decrease in amortization of intangible assets of $1.1 million.

For the six months ended April 30, 2026, excluding amortization of intangible assets of $4.9 million, stock-based compensation expense of $1.6 million, and depreciation expense of $1.1 million, G&A expenses were $49.1 million (24.9% of revenue). For the six months ended April 30, 2025, excluding amortization of intangible assets of $6.1 million, depreciation expense of $1.1 million, and stock-based compensation expense of $0.9 million, G&A expenses were $47.6 million (26.4% of revenue). The increase in G&A expenses is primarily related to an increase in labor costs of $0.6 million and property and use tax costs of $0.5 million.

Total other income (expense)

Interest expense and amortization of deferred financing costs. Interest expense and amortization of deferred financing costs for the six months ended April 30, 2026 was $16.8 million, up $2.0 million from $14.8 million in the six months ended April 30, 2025. The increase was attributable to the refinancing of our senior notes during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 resulting in an increase in interest expense of $2.0 million.

Debt extinguishment costs. On January 31, 2025, we closed on our private offering of $425.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured second lien notes due 2032 and repaid all outstanding indebtedness under our then-existing senior notes due 2026. The $1.4 million in debt extinguishment costs incurred relate to the write-off of all unamortized deferred debt issuance costs that were related to the 2026 Notes.

Income tax expense (benefit)

Income tax expense (benefit). For the six months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025 the Company's effective tax rate was 68.9% and 28.2%, respectively. The change in the effective tax rate was largely driven by discrete items. While these items are not quantitatively significant, the relative proportionality to income before income taxes amplified their relative impact for the six months ended April 30, 2026 compared to April 30, 2025.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our capital structure is primarily a combination of (1) permanent financing, represented by stockholders' equity; (2) zero-dividend convertible perpetual preferred stock; (3) long-term financing represented by our Senior Notes (as defined below) and (4) short-term financing under our ABL Facility (as defined below). Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from operations, available cash and cash equivalents and access to our revolving credit facility under our ABL Facility (as defined below), which provides for aggregate borrowings of up to $350.0 million, subject to a borrowing base limitation. We use our liquidity and capital resources to: (1) finance working capital requirements; (2) service our indebtedness; (3) purchase property, plant and equipment (4) finance strategic acquisitions, such as the acquisition of Templant and others; (5) repurchase shares and (6) pay dividends to our stockholders, as discussed further below. As of April 30, 2026, we had $38.7 million of cash and cash equivalents and $307.6 million of available borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility (as defined below), providing total available liquidity of $346.3 million.

We believe our existing cash and cash equivalent balances, cash flow from operations and borrowing capacity under our ABL Facility will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs for at least the next 12 months. Our future capital requirements may vary materially from those currently planned and will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, potential acquisitions and overall economic conditions. To the extent that current and anticipated future sources of liquidity are insufficient to fund our future business activities and requirements, we may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing. The sale of additional equity could result in dilution to our stockholders while the incurrence of additional debt could restrict our operations.

Material Cash Requirements

Our principal uses of cash historically have been to fund operating activities and working capital, purchases of property and equipment, strategic acquisitions, fund payments due under facility operating and finance leases, share repurchases, payment of dividends and to meet debt service requirements.

Our working capital surplus as of April 30, 2026 was $52.1 million. We are in compliance with our debt covenants and believe that we have sufficient working capital to meet our material cash requirements for the foreseeable future.

The amount of our future capital expenditures will depend on a number of factors including general economic conditions and growth prospects. In response to changing economic conditions, we believe we have the flexibility to modify our capital expenditures by adjusting them (either up or down) to match our actual performance and business needs. Our gross capital expenditures for the six months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025 were approximately $30.7 million and $19.5 million, respectively. See "Cash Flow" discussion below for more information.

To service our debt, we require a significant amount of cash. Our ability to pay interest and principal on our indebtedness will depend upon our future operating performance and the availability of borrowings under the ABL Facility and/or other debt and equity financing alternatives available to us, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions and conditions in the global credit and capital markets, as well as financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. Based on our current level of operations and given the current state of the capital markets, we believe our cash flow from operations, available cash and available borrowings under the ABL Facility will be adequate to service our debt and meet our future liquidity needs for the foreseeable future. See "Senior Notes and ABL Facility" discussion below for more information.

Dividends

During the six months ended April 30, 2025, we paid a special cash dividend of $1.00 per share, totaling $53.1 million. The dividend was funded with cash on hand and net proceeds from our new 2032 Notes (as defined below). The declaration of dividends on our common stock is discretionary and will be determined by our Board of Directors in its sole discretion and will depend on our business conditions, financial condition, earnings, liquidity and capital requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors.

Future Contractual Obligations

For information regarding our future contractual obligations, see the MD&A discussion included in Item 7 of Part II of our Annual Report.

Senior Notes and ABL Facility

On January 31, 2025, Brundage-Bone Concrete Pumping Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer") and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, closed its private offering of $425.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured second lien notes due 2032 (the "2032 Notes"), issued pursuant to an indenture, among the Issuer, the Company, the other Guarantors (as defined below), Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee and as collateral agent (the "Indenture"). The 2032 Notes were issued at par and bear interest at a fixed rate of 7.500% per annum. The Issuer's obligations under the 2032 Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed on a senior secured basis by the Company, Concrete Pumping Intermediate Acquisition Corp. and each of the Issuer's domestic, wholly-owned subsidiaries that is a borrower or a guarantor under the ABL Facility (collectively, the "Guarantors"). The proceeds from the 2032 Notes were used to pay the redemption price for all of the Company's outstanding 6.000% senior secured second lien notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes") and to pay related fees and expenses thereto. In addition, the remainder of the net proceeds, together with cash on hand, were used to pay a special cash dividend of $1.00 per share of common stock of the Company on February 3, 2025.

On September 6, 2024, the ABL Facility was amended to, among other changes, (1) increase the maximum revolver borrowings available to be drawn thereunder from $225.0 million to $350.0 million, (2) increase the letter of credit sublimit from $22.5 million to $32.5 million and (3) extend the maturity of the ABL Facility to the earlier of (a) September 6, 2029 or (b) the date that is 180 days prior to (i) the final stated maturity date of the Senior Notes or (ii) the date the Senior Notes become due and payable. The ABL Facility also provides for an uncommitted accordion feature under which the borrowers under the ABL Facility can, subject to specified conditions, increase the ABL Facility by up to an additional $25.0 million. Of the $125.0 million in incremental commitments, $75.0 million was provided by Bank of America, N.A. and $50.0 million was provided by PNC Bank, N.A. The amended ABL Facility was treated as a debt modification. The Company capitalized an additional $1.2 million of debt issuance costs related to the September 6, 2024, ABL Facility amendment. The preexisting unamortized deferred costs of $1.4 million and the additional costs of $1.2 million are being amortized from September 6, 2024 through September 6, 2029.

There was an outstanding balance of $0.6 million under the ABL Facility as of April 30, 2026 and as of that date, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants. In addition, as of April 30, 2026, the Company had $1.1 million in credit line reserves and a letter of credit balance of $18.5 million. As of April 30, 2026, we had $307.6 million of available borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility. Debt issuance costs related to revolving credit facilities are capitalized and reflected as an asset in deferred financing costs in the accompanying condensed balance sheets. The Company had unamortized debt issuance costs related to the revolving credit facilities of $1.8 million as of April 30, 2026.

See Note 5 of Part I, Item I in this document for more information on the Senior Notes and ABL Facility.

Cash Flows

Cash generated from operating activities typically reflects net income, as adjusted for non-cash expense items such as depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation, and changes in our operating assets and liabilities. Generally, we believe our business requires a relatively low level of working capital investment due to low inventory requirements and timely customer payments due to daily billings for most of our services.

Cash flow provided by operating activities. Net cash provided by operating activities generally reflects the cash effects of transactions and other events used in the determination of net income or loss.

Net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended April 30, 2026 was $29.5 million. The Company had net income of $0.1 million, which included net non-cash expense items of $29.4 million. In addition, there was no net cash impact due to changes in our working capital. Cash inflows related to working capital activity include a decrease in other operating assets of $1.2 million and an increase in accounts payable of $2.8 million, offset by increases to receivables of $1.5 million and inventory of $1.0 million offset by decreases in other operating liabilities of $1.5 million. The increase in receivables is due to increases in sales volumes during the six months ended April 30, 2026. The decrease in other operating assets is primarily related to the timing of our annual commercial insurance premium payments. The increase in accounts payable is driven by the general timing of invoices. The decrease in other operating liabilities is related to operating lease payments.

Net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended April 30, 2025 was $30.8 million. The Company had a net loss of $2.6 million, which included net non-cash expense items of $29.6 million. In addition, we had cash inflows related to an increase in our working capital of $3.9 million. Cash inflows related to working capital activity include a decrease to receivables of $8.4 million and an increase to accounts payable of $4.3 million, partially offset by an increase to other operating assets of $6.3 million and a decrease in other operating liabilities of $2.4 million. The decrease in receivables is due to decreases in sales volumes during the six months ended April 30, 2025. The increase in accounts payable is driven by the general timing of invoices. The increase in other operating assets is due to the timing of our annual commercial insurance premium payments. The decrease in other operating liabilities is related to operating lease payments of $2.5 million.

Cash flow used in investing activities. Net cash used in operating activities generally reflects the cash outflows for property, plant and equipment.

We used $28.1 million to fund investing activities during the six months ended April 30, 2026. The Company used $19.6 million for the purchase of property, plant and equipment and $11.1 million to fund the acquisition of Templant. These amounts were partially offset by $2.6 million in proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment.

We used $16.3 million to fund investing activities during the six months ended April 30, 2025. The Company used $19.5 million for the purchase of property, plant and equipment, which was partially offset by $3.2 million in proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment.

Cash flow used in financing activities.

Net cash used in financing activities was $7.3 million for the six months ended April 30, 2026. Cash used in financing activities included $7.2 million in purchase of treasury stock, which included $6.7 million purchased under the share repurchase program and $0.5 million from the purchase of shares into treasury stock in order to fund the employee tax obligations for certain stock award vesting and stock option exercise activities and $0.7 million for other financing activities. In addition, cash used in financing activities included $0.6 million in net proceeds under the Company's ABL Facility.

Net cash used in financing activities was $19.9 million for the six months ended April 30, 2025. Cash used in financing activities included $425.0 million in proceeds from the issuance of the 2032 Notes, $375.0 million in payments for the extinguishment of the 2026 Notes, $53.1 million in dividends paid, $8.2 million in debt issuance costs paid related to the 2032 Notes and $8.5 million in purchase of treasury stock, which included $7.9 million purchased under the share repurchase program and $0.6 million from the purchase of shares into treasury stock in order to fund the employee tax obligations for certain stock award vesting and stock option exercise activities.

Accounting and Other Reporting Matters

Non-GAAP Measures (EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA)

We calculate EBITDA by taking GAAP net income and adding back interest expense and amortization of deferred financing costs, net of interest income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by taking EBITDA and adding back transaction expenses, loss on debt extinguishment, stock-based compensation, other income, net, goodwill and intangibles impairment and other adjustments. Other adjustments include non-recurring expenses, non-cash currency gains/losses, research and development expenses and other items not necessarily indicative of our underlying operating performance. Transaction expenses represent expenses for legal, accounting, and other professionals that were engaged in the completion of acquisitions. Transaction expenses can be volatile as they are primarily driven by the size of a specific acquisition. As such, we exclude these amounts from Adjusted EBITDA for comparability across periods.

We believe these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful supplemental information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends related to our financial condition and results of operations, and as a supplemental tool for investors to use in evaluating our ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial measures with competitors who also present similar non-GAAP financial measures. In addition, these measures (1) are used in quarterly and annual financial reports and presentations prepared for management, our board of directors and investors, and (2) help management to determine incentive compensation. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated under GAAP. These non-GAAP measures exclude certain cash expenses that we are obligated to make. In addition, other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently or may not calculate it at all, which limits the usefulness of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as comparative measures.
