“Primoris had a strong first quarter to begin 2024, delivering improved revenues, margins, earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA compared to the prior year,” said Tom McCormick, President and Chief Executive Officer of Primoris. “Our employees’ continued dedication to safe, consistent execution remains a primary driver of our ability to successfully perform for our customers.”
“We continue to see growing demand for our Energy and Utilities services as the energy transition and infrastructure modernization of North America continues to progress. Our solar and industrial businesses are capitalizing on opportunities to help meet the growing demand for power generation, while our power delivery business supports the increased need for transmission and distribution services.”
“We maintain a strong backlog of work and expect to see new project awards accelerate in the coming quarters to further build our backlog and support revenue growth,” he added. “Overall, our solid start to the year led us to be optimistic that our full year 2024 goals to improve margins and cash flow generation remain achievable with continued, consistent execution.”
First Quarter 2024 Results Overview
Revenue was $1,412.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of $155.8 million, compared to the same period in 2023. The increase was primarily due to strong growth in our Energy segment driven by higher utility scale solar and industrial construction partially offset by lower Utilities segment activity. Gross profit was $133.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of $33.6 million, or 33.7 percent, compared to the same period in 2023. The increase was primarily due to an increase in revenue and improved margins in the Energy segment. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased to 9.4 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to 7.9 percent for the same period in 2023, primarily as a result of improved contribution from the renewables and industrials businesses, partially offset by a decrease in project work in the Utilities segment.
This press release includes Non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes these measures enable investors, analysts and management to evaluate Primoris’ performance excluding the effects of certain items that management believes impact the comparability of operating results between reporting periods. In addition, management believes these measures are useful in comparing the Company’s operating results with those of its competitors. Please refer to “Non-GAAP Measures” and Schedules 1, 2, 3, and 4 for the definitions and reconciliations of the Company’s Non-GAAP financial measures, including “Adjusted Net Income,” “Adjusted EPS” and “Adjusted EBITDA”.

Adjusted Net Income was $25.8 million for the first quarter, compared to $9.9 million for the same period in 2023. Diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) was $0.35 for the first quarter of 2024 compared to $0.02 for the same period in 2023.

Utilities Segment (“Utilities”): Revenue decreased by $48.4 million, or 9.0 percent, for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023, primarily due to a decrease in project work in power delivery and lower communications activity. Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2024, decreased by $4.1 million, or 12.2 percent, compared to the same period in 2023. The decrease is primarily attributable to the lower revenue from higher margin project and communications activity. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue decreased slightly to 6.0 percent during the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to 6.2 percent for the same period in 2023.
Energy Segment (“Energy”): Revenue increased by $247.7 million, or 33.4 percent, for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023. The increase was primarily due to higher solar project activity and industrial construction activity in the western United States, partially offset by lower pipeline activity. Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2024, increased by $37.7 million, or 57.0 percent, compared to the same period in 2023, primarily due to increased revenue from higher margin renewables and industrial activity. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased to 10.5 percent during the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to 8.9 percent in the same period in 2023.

Other Income Statement Information
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $88.6 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2024, an increase of $10.6 million, or 13.6 percent, compared to the same period in 2023, primarily due to increased personnel costs to support revenue growth. SG&A expense as a percentage of revenue was 6.3 percent in the first quarter of 2024, roughly flat compared to the first quarter of 2023.
Interest expense, net for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, was $18.0 million compared to $18.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The decrease of $0.5 million was due to lower average debt balances, partially offset by higher average interest rates. Interest expense for the full year 2024 is expected to be approximately $77 to $82 million.
The effective tax rate for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, of 29.0% differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state income taxes and nondeductible components of per diem expenses. We recorded income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024, of $7.7 million compared to $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The $7.2 million increase in income tax expense is primarily driven by a $24.9 million increase in pretax income.
The Company is maintaining its estimates for the year ending December 31, 2024. Earnings per Share (“EPS”) is expected to be between $2.50 and $2.70 per fully diluted share. Adjusted EPS is estimated in the range of $3.05 to $3.25, and Adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2024 is expected to range from $395 to $415 million.
The Company is targeting SG&A expense as a percentage of revenue in the low six percent range for full year 2024. The Company’s targeted gross margins by segment are as follows: Utilities in the range of 9 to 11 percent; Energy in the range of 10 to 12 percent. The Company expects its effective tax rate for 2024 to be similar to 2023 at approximately 29 percent but it may vary depending on the mix of states in which the Company operates.
Adjusted EPS and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. Please refer to “Non-GAAP Measures” and Schedules below for the definitions and reconciliations. The guidance provided above constitutes forward-looking statements, which are based on current economic conditions and estimates, and the Company does not include other potential impacts, such as changes in accounting or unusual items.

Non-GAAP Measures
This press release contains certain financial measures that are not recognized under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Primoris uses earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted EPS as important supplemental measures of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes these measures enable investors, analysts, and management to evaluate Primoris’ performance excluding the effects of certain items that management believes impact the comparability of operating results between reporting periods. In addition, management believes these measures are useful in comparing the Company’s operating results with those of its competitors. The non-GAAP measures presented in this press release are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, Primoris’ method of calculating these measures may be different from methods used by other companies, and, accordingly, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures as calculated by other companies that do not use the same methodology as Primoris.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS
(In Thousands, Except Per Share Amounts)
(Unaudited)
Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS
Primoris defines Adjusted Net Income as net income (loss) adjusted for certain items including, (i) non‐cash stock‐based compensation expense; (ii) transaction/integration and related costs; (iii) asset impairment charges; (iv) changes in fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap; (v) change in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities; (vi) amortization of intangible assets; (vii) amortization of debt discounts and debt issuance costs; (viii) losses on extinguishment of debt; (ix) severance and restructuring changes; (x) selected (gains) charges that are unusual or non-recurring; and (xi) impact of changes in statutory tax rates. The Company defines Adjusted EPS as Adjusted Net Income divided by the diluted weighted average shares outstanding. Management believes these adjustments are helpful for comparing the Company’s operating performance with prior periods. Because Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS, as defined, exclude some, but not all, items that affect net income and diluted earnings per share, they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. The most comparable GAAP financial measures, net income and diluted earnings per share, and information reconciling the GAAP and non‐GAAP financial measures, are included in the table below.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
Primoris defines EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted for certain items including, (i) non‐cash stock‐based compensation expense; (ii) transaction/integration and related costs; (iii) asset impairment charges; (iv) severance and restructuring changes; (v) change in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities; and (vi) selected (gains) charges that are unusual or non-recurring. The Company believes the EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA financial measures assist in providing a more complete understanding of the Company’s underlying operational measures to manage its business, to evaluate its performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace, and to establish operational goals. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non‐GAAP financial measures and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP. These non‐GAAP financial measures may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies. The most comparable GAAP financial measure, net income, and information reconciling the GAAP and non‐GAAP financial measures are included in the table below.
