Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024, was $386.3 million compared to $563.6 million for the same period in 2023.

Net income was $71.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $173.7 million for the same period in 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ was $196.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $344.2 million for the same period in 2023.

The year over year decreases were attributable to the government segment and primarily driven by the previously announced infrastructure enhancement revenue amortization ("Infrastructure Revenue Amortization") associated with the Company's Pecos Children's Center ("PCC") community, which was fully amortized as of November 2023. In addition, these decreases were partially a result of lower PCC minimum lease and variable services revenue and the previously announced termination of the South Texas Family Residential Center Contract ("STFRC Contract") effective August 9, 2024.

Fourth Quarter Summary Highlights

Revenue was $83.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared to $126.2 million for the same period in 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ was $41.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared to $67.7 million for the same period in 2023.

The decreases were attributable to the government segment and primarily driven by lower PCC variable services revenue, and no PCC Infrastructure Revenue Amortization, which was fully amortized as of November 2023. In addition, these decreases were partially a result of the termination of the STFRC Contract effective August 9, 2024.

Capital Management

The Company had approximately $32.5 million of capital expenditures for the year ended December 31, 2024, predominantly focused on enhancing and maintaining Target's modular accommodations across its network. 

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had approximately $191 million of cash and cash equivalents with approximately $366 million of total available liquidity, no outstanding borrowings on the Company's $175 million credit facility (the "ABL Facility"), and a net leverage ratio of 0.0 times. 

On March 25, 2025, the Company redeemed all $181.4 million in aggregate principal amount outstanding of the Senior Notes for a redemption price equal to 101.00% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest up to March 25, 2025, for total cash consideration of approximately $183.8 million using cash on hand and a portion of the borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility.  The Company expects to realize annual interest expense savings of approximately $19.5 million following the redemption of the Senior Notes.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company repurchased approximately 3.8 million shares of its common stock for approximately $33.4 million. The stock repurchases, which commenced in January 2024, were executed pursuant to the $100 million stock repurchase program announced in November 2022 and represent approximately 33.4% of total share repurchase authorization executed to date. This repurchase program may be suspended from time to time, modified, extended or discontinued at certain times. Purchases under the repurchase program may be made from time to time in open market or privately negotiated transactions, and will be subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, contractual obligations and other factors. Any shares of common stock repurchased will be held as treasury shares.

Business Update and Full Year 2025 Outlook

Target is well positioned, with strong underlying business fundamentals and an efficient operating structure.  These elements establish a highly durable operating model and support Target's ability to appropriately match customer demand while simultaneously pursuing strategic growth initiatives.

Target's HFS - South segment continues to benefit from consistent customer activity and constructive market dynamics.  Target is encouraged by the positive momentum in this segment, where its world-class customers continue to find added value in the Company's premium hospitality solutions and unique capabilities.    

These distinct core competencies supported the Company's recently announced multi-year Workforce Hub Contract, providing an estimated $68 million of minimum revenue in 2025.   This contract illustrates Target's ability to utilize its existing service offering and solutions to deliver on its strategic diversification initiatives.  In addition, the contract broadens Target's customer and geographic reach, enabling the Company to pursue additional growth initiatives within an expanding region for critical mineral development.     

Regarding the Government segment, the recently announced 5-year $246 million Dilley Contract illustrates the importance of the Company's strategically located assets and proven ability to provide unmatched solutions supporting a range of U.S. government initiatives.  In addition, Target's existing government-focused network capacity offers the benefit of purpose-built readily accessible solutions, including the previously utilized PCC assets, which the Company believes establishes a distinct advantage as it actively pursues a strong pipeline of government end-market growth opportunities.

These proven capabilities, coupled with the U.S. government's stated immigration policy initiatives, support strong demand for Target's services and hospitality solutions.  The Company believes it is well positioned, with a strong reputation and partnerships with industry leading companies, as it pursues other potential opportunities supporting critical U.S. government policy initiatives.

Target's business fundamentals, including its network capabilities and commitment to maximizing operational efficiencies, have established a strong financial position.  These elements support the Company's revised 2025 outlook, of:  

• Total revenue between $265 and $285 million
• Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ between $47 and $57 million

Target's revised 2025 outlook gives effect to the previously announced PCC contract termination, effective February 21, 2025, and the recently announced Dilley Contract award, effective March 5, 2025.

(1)   Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains historical non-GAAP financial measures including Adjusted gross profit, Discretionary Cash Flow, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, which are measurements not calculated in accordance with US GAAP, in the discussion of our financial results because they are key metrics used by management to assess financial performance. Our business is capital-intensive, and these additional metrics allow management to further evaluate our operating performance.  Reconciliations of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are contained herein. To the extent required, statements disclosing the definitions, utility and purposes of these measures are also set forth herein.

This press release also contains a forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure Adjusted EBITDA. Reconciliations of this forward-looking measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is unavailable to Target Hospitality without unreasonable effort. We cannot provide a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP financial measures because certain items required for such reconciliation are outside of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted, such as the provision for income taxes. Preparation of such reconciliation would require a forward-looking balance sheet, statement of income and statement of cash flow, prepared in accordance with GAAP, and such forward-looking financial statements are unavailable to us without unreasonable effort. Although we provide a minimum of Adjusted EBITDA that we believe will be achieved, we cannot accurately predict all the components of the Adjusted EBITDA calculation. Target Hospitality provides an Adjusted EBITDA outlook because we believe that this measure, when viewed with our results under GAAP, provide useful information for the reasons noted below.

Definitions:

Target Hospitality defines Adjusted gross profit, as Gross profit plus depreciation of specialty rental assets, loss on impairment, and certain severance costs.

Target Hospitality defines EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense and loss on extinguishment of debt, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation of specialty rental assets, and other depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA reflects the following further adjustments to EBITDA to exclude certain non-cash items and the effect of what management considers transactions or events not related to its core business operations:

• Other (income) expense, net: Other (income) expense, net includes miscellaneous cash receipts, gains and losses on disposals of property, plant, and equipment, and other immaterial expenses and non-cash items.
• Transaction expenses: During 2023, Target Hospitality incurred transaction cost primarily related to legal, advisory and underwriter fees, associated with debt related transaction activity and, to a lesser extent, other business development project related transaction activity. During 2024, Target Hospitality incurred expenses associated with certain transactions, primarily driven by the previously announced unsolicited non-binding proposal from Arrow Holdings S.à r.l. ("Arrow"), an affiliate of TDR, to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company that are not owned by any of Arrow, any investment fund managed by TDR or any of their respective affiliates (the "Unaffiliated Shares"), for cash consideration of $10.80 per share (the "Proposal").
• Stock-based compensation: Charges associated with stock-based compensation expense, which has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense in our business and an important part of our compensation strategy.
• Change in fair value of warrant liabilities: Non-cash change in estimated fair value of warrant liabilities.
• Other adjustments: System implementation costs, including non-cash amortization of capitalized system implementation costs, business development, accounting standard implementation costs and certain severance costs.

Target Hospitality defines Discretionary cash flow as Cash flow from operations less maintenance capital expenditures for specialty rental assets.

Utility and Purposes:

EBITDA reflects Net income (loss) excluding the impact of interest expense and loss on extinguishment of debt, provision for income taxes, depreciation, and amortization. We believe that EBITDA is a meaningful indicator of operating performance because we use it to measure our ability to service debt, fund capital expenditures, and expand our business. We also use EBITDA, as do analysts, lenders, investors, and others, to evaluate companies because it excludes certain items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry. For example, interest expense can be dependent on a company's capital structure, debt levels, and credit ratings. Accordingly, the impact of interest expense on earnings can vary significantly among companies. The tax positions of companies can also vary because of their differing abilities to take advantage of tax benefits and because of the tax policies of the jurisdictions in which they operate. As a result, effective tax rates and provision for income taxes can vary considerably among companies. EBITDA also excludes depreciation and amortization expense because companies utilize productive assets of different ages and use different methods of both acquiring and depreciating productive assets. These differences can result in considerable variability in the relative costs of productive assets and the depreciation and amortization expense among companies.

Target Hospitality also believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful indicator of operating performance. Our Adjusted EBITDA reflects adjustments to exclude the effects of additional items, including certain items, that are not reflective of the ongoing operating results of Target Hospitality.  In addition, to derive Adjusted EBITDA, we exclude gains or losses on the sale and disposal of depreciable assets and impairment losses because including them in EBITDA is inconsistent with reporting the ongoing performance of our remaining assets. Additionally, the gain or loss on sale and disposal of depreciable assets and impairment losses represents either accelerated depreciation or excess depreciation in previous periods, and depreciation is excluded from EBITDA.

Target Hospitality also presents Discretionary cash flows because we believe it provides useful information regarding our business as more fully described below. Discretionary cash flows indicate the amount of cash available after maintenance capital expenditures for specialty rental assets for, among other things, investments in our existing business.

Adjusted gross profit, Discretionary cash flow, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of Target Hospitality's financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to Gross profit, Net income, or other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP, or as alternatives to Cash flow from operating activities as measures of Target Hospitality's liquidity.  Adjusted gross profit, Discretionary cash flow, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as discretionary cash available to Target Hospitality to reinvest in the growth of our business or as measures of cash that is available to it to meet our obligations. In addition, these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Target Hospitality's management believe that Adjusted gross profit, Discretionary cash flows, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors about Target Hospitality and its financial condition and results of operations for the following reasons: (i) they are among the measures used by Target Hospitality's management team to evaluate its operating performance; (ii) they are among the measures used by Target Hospitality's management team to make day-to-day operating decisions, (iii) they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties as a common performance measure to compare results across companies in Target Hospitality's industry.
