⁽²⁾ Results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 included a $21.8 million gain on the sale of depleted land, impacting year-over-year comparability.

Commenting on the Company's performance, Antonio Carrillo, President and Chief Executive Officer, noted, "Our first quarter results were better than expected as we recovered from broad-based weather impacts in January, highlighting the earnings power of our portfolio of businesses. On an organic basis, we achieved double-digit Adjusted EBITDA growth and higher overall margin in the balance of the quarter.

"In Construction Products, we continued to benefit from strong pricing momentum, offsetting a modest decline in overall aggregates volume. The acquisitions that we completed in 2023 to strategically expand in Florida, Arizona, and Texas also contributed to the segment growth and were margin accretive. We were pleased to report another quarter with higher year-over-year performance in specialty materials. With favorable market tailwinds, a stabilized workforce, and improved plant reliability, this business is well-positioned to deliver better results in 2024.

"Within Engineered Structures, we executed according to plan during the first quarter. Order activity in utility structures remained healthy and margin tracked with the fourth quarter. We are making good progress at our new wind tower facility in New Mexico with plans for initial tower delivery in the second quarter of 2024. Last week, we hosted the U.S. Secretary of Energy to celebrate the completion of our first wind tower section, both on-time and on-budget.

"First quarter Adjusted Segment EBITDA increased 32% in Transportation Products, driven by higher barge revenues, and 270 basis points of margin improvement. During the first quarter, we received orders for both hopper and tank barges representing a book-to-bill of 1.5, extending our backlog into 2025. We are pleased to see continued momentum in tank barge orders and are cautiously optimistic regarding replacement needs for the liquid fleet."

Carrillo further noted, "We continue to make measurable progress advancing our sustainability initiatives at Arcosa and released our fourth annual sustainability report in April. With business-focused sustainability efforts, we believe we can translate daily actions into long-term success for our Company and its stakeholders."

2024 Outlook and Guidance

The Company raised its 2024 full year guidance to incorporate the acquisition of Ameron Pole Products LLC ("Ameron"), a leading manufacturer of highly engineered, premium concrete and steel poles for a broad range of infrastructure applications, which closed on April 9, 2024. The increased guidance also reflects better than expected first quarter results.

Increased full year 2024 consolidated revenues to a range of $2.58 billion to $2.78 billion, from the prior guidance range of $2.46 billion to $2.72 billion. This compares to 2023 consolidated revenues of $2.31 billion.
Increased full year 2024 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA guidance to a range of $410 million to $440 million, from the prior guidance range of $380 million to $420 million. This compares to 2023 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $367.6 million, including $21.8 million from a land sale gain in the first quarter of 2023.

Commenting on the outlook, Carrillo noted, "The recent Ameron acquisition is an excellent strategic fit for Arcosa, expanding our product offerings in traffic and telecom structures and establishing our foothold in the attractive concrete and steel lighting pole market. We have updated our 2024 guidance to incorporate Ameron and our strong start to the year. Normalizing for 2023's land sale gain, we anticipate Adjusted EBITDA growth of 23% and margin improvement of 90 basis points at the mid-point of our guidance range.

"We generated strong operating cash flow of $81 million in the first quarter, up 195% from last year, which helped fund significant investment in organic growth projects. Our balance sheet and liquidity remain solid and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA, pro forma for the Ameron acquisition, remains below our long-term target.

"Importantly, Ameron accelerates Arcosa's long-term growth profile, while underscoring our disciplined acquisition strategy. Over the last 12 months, we have deployed nearly $300 million in margin accretive acquisitions at attractive valuation multiples, expanding our growth platforms in Construction Products and Engineered Structures."

First Quarter 2024 Results and Commentary

Construction Products

Results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 benefited from a $21.8 million gain on the sale of depleted land. To aid in comparison, the gain is excluded from the discussion of year-over-year results.
Revenues increased 6.4% to $251.2 million. Recent acquisitions increased revenues by approximately 4.5%. Organic revenues increased due to higher pricing across our aggregates and specialty materials businesses and higher volumes in trench shoring, partially offset by lower freight revenues.
Total volumes for our aggregates business, which includes both natural and recycled, were up slightly compared to the prior period, as additional volume from recent acquisitions offset lower organic volumes.
Excluding the land sale gain, Adjusted Segment EBITDA increased 10.1% primarily due to the accretive impact of recent acquisitions and operating improvements in our specialty materials business.
Adjusted Segment EBITDA Margin, excluding the gain, increased to 23.9% compared to 23.1% in the prior year period and Freight-Adjusted Segment EBITDA Margin was 26.4% compared to 26.3% in the prior year period.

Engineered Structures

Revenues for utility, wind, and related structures increased 11.5% to $231.6 million due to higher volumes in our utility structures and wind towers businesses, partially offset by lower utility structures pricing due to product mix.
Adjusted Segment EBITDA decreased 9.6% to $27.2 million, and margin decreased 280 basis points to 11.7% primarily due to lower margin in our utility structures business resulting from a shift in product mix. Margin for our utility structures business was flat compared to the fourth quarter of 2023.
Startup costs incurred for our new concrete utility pole and wind tower plants were partially offset by an increase in Advanced Manufacturing Production ("AMP") tax credits.
Order activity for utility and related structures remained healthy. During the quarter, we received a small order for wind towers of approximately $10 million for delivery in 2024. Conversations with our customers for additional wind tower orders continue.
At the end of the first quarter, the combined backlog for utility, wind, and related structures was $1,366.7 million compared to $1,531.4 million at the end of the first quarter of 2023. We expect to deliver approximately 40% of our current backlog in 2024.

Transportation Products

Revenues were $115.8 million, up 10% primarily due to a 17% increase in barge revenues driven by higher volumes and improved pricing. Revenues for steel components decreased 3.2% due to a modest decline in volumes.
Adjusted Segment EBITDA increased $4.5 million, or 32%, to $18.6 million, representing a 16.1% margin compared to 13.4% in the prior period. The increase was driven by higher barge volumes and improved margin in both businesses.
During the quarter, we received orders for both hopper and tank barges totaling approximately $120 million, representing a book-to-bill of 1.5.
Backlog for inland barges at the end of the quarter was $294.4 million, up 16% from the fourth quarter of 2023. We expect to deliver approximately 73% of our current backlog in 2024.

Corporate and Other Financial Notes

Excluding acquisition and divestiture-related costs, which have been excluded from Adjusted EBITDA, corporate expenses increased to $14.7 million in the first quarter compared to $13.8 million in the prior year primarily due to higher compensation-related costs.
Acquisition and divestiture-related costs were $1.6 million in the first quarter compared to $0.6 million in the prior year.
The effective tax rate for the first quarter was 17.1% compared to 20.3% in the prior year. The decrease in the tax rate was primarily due to lower state taxes and higher AMP tax credits.

Cash Flow and Liquidity

Operating cash flow was $80.5 million during the first quarter, an increase of $53.2 million compared to the prior year.
Working capital was a $4.6 million net source of cash for the quarter compared to the prior year's $55.4 million net use of cash.
Capital expenditures in the first quarter were $54.4 million, up $10.0 million from the prior year as we continue to invest in organic projects in Construction Products and Engineered Structures.
Free Cash Flow for the quarter was $30.3 million, up from $6.8 million in the prior year.
We ended the quarter with total liquidity of $554.5 million, including $176.5 million of cash and cash equivalents, and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA was 1.2X for the trailing twelve months.
As previously announced, we completed the acquisition of Ameron in April for a total purchase price of $180.0 million, which will be included in our Engineered Structures segment. The acquisition was funded with $160.0 million of borrowings under our revolving credit facility and cash on hand. Pro Forma Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA following the acquisition is 1.7X.

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA

($ in millions)

(unaudited)

"EBITDA" is defined as net income plus interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, and amortization. "Adjusted EBITDA" is defined as EBITDA adjusted for certain items that are not reflective of the normal earnings of our business. GAAP does not define EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA and they should not be considered as alternatives to earnings measures defined by GAAP, including net income. We use Adjusted EBITDA to assess the operating performance of our consolidated business, as a metric for incentive-based compensation, as a measure within our lending arrangements, and as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting as we believe that it closely correlates to long-term shareholder value. As a widely used metric by analysts, investors, and competitors in our industry, we believe Adjusted EBITDA also assists investors in comparing a company's performance on a consistent basis without regard to depreciation, depletion, amortization, and other items which can vary significantly depending on many factors. "Adjusted EBITDA Margin" is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenues.

Arcosa, Inc. Reconciliation of Free Cash Flow and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ($ in millions) (unaudited)

GAAP does not define "Free Cash Flow" and it should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow measures defined by GAAP, including cash flow from operating activities. We define Free Cash Flow as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures net of the proceeds from the disposition of property, plant, equipment, and other assets. The Company also uses "Free Cash Flow Conversion", which we define as Free Cash Flow divided by net income. We use these metrics to assess the liquidity of our consolidated business. We present these metrics for the convenience of investors who use such metrics in their analysis and for shareholders who need to understand the metrics we use to assess performance and monitor our cash and liquidity positions.

GAAP does not define "Net Debt" and it should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow or liquidity measures defined by GAAP. The Company uses Net Debt, which it defines as total debt minus cash and cash equivalents to determine the extent to which the Company's outstanding debt obligations would be satisfied by its cash and cash equivalents on hand. The Company also uses "Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA", which it defines as Net Debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing twelve months as a metric of its current leverage position. We present this metric for the convenience of investors who use such metrics in their analysis and for shareholders who need to understand the metrics we use to assess performance and monitor our cash and liquidity positions.

	March 31, 2024		Pro Forma Ameron⁽¹⁾			March 31, 2024 Pro Forma
