Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization and Nature of Operations

WillScot Corporation (“WillScot” and, together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), is a leading provider of modular space and portable storage solutions in the United States (“US”), Canada and Mexico. The Company leases, sells, delivers and installs mobile offices, modular buildings and storage products through an integrated network of branch locations that spans North America.

WillScot, whose Class A common shares are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (Nasdaq: WSC), serves as the holding company for the Williams Scotsman family of companies. All of the Company’s assets and operations are owned through Williams Scotsman Holdings Corp. (“WS Holdings”). WillScot operates and owns 91.0% of WS Holdings, and Sapphire Holding S.à r.l. (“Sapphire”), an affiliate of TDR Capital LLP (“TDR Capital”), owns the remaining 9.0%.

WillScot was incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempt company under the name, Double Eagle Acquisition Corporation ("Double Eagle"), on June 26, 2015. Prior to November 29, 2017, Double Eagle was a Nasdaq-listed special purpose acquisition company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination. On November 29, 2017, Double Eagle indirectly acquired Williams Scotsman International, Inc. (“WSII”) from Algeco Scotsman Global S.à r.l., (together with its subsidiaries, the “Algeco Group”), which is majority owned by an investment fund managed by TDR Capital. As part of the transaction (the “Business Combination”), Double Eagle domesticated to Delaware and changed its name to WillScot Corporation. Additional information about the Business Combination and the Company's operations prior thereto is contained in the consolidated financial statements and notes included in WillScot's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the US (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented.

The results of consolidated operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes included in WillScot's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of WillScot and its subsidiaries that it controls due to ownership of a majority voting interest. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Company obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date when such control ceases. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the Company. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated. The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. Although WillScot was the indirect acquirer of WSII for legal purposes, WSII was considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes.

As a result of WSII being the accounting acquirer, the financial reports filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by the Company subsequent to the Business Combination are prepared “as if” WSII is the predecessor and legal successor to the Company. The historical operations of WSII are deemed to be those of the Company. Thus, the financial statements included in this report reflect (i) the historical operating results of WSII prior to the Business Combination; (ii) the combined results of WillScot and WSII following the Business Combination on November 29, 2017; (iii) the assets and liabilities of WSII at their historical cost; and (iv) WillScot's equity structure for all periods presented. The recapitalization of the number of shares of common stock attributable to the purchase of WSII in connection with the Business Combination is reflected retroactively to the earliest period presented and is utilized for calculating earnings per share in all prior periods presented. No step-up basis of intangible assets or goodwill was recorded in the Business Combination transaction consistent with the treatment of the transaction as a reverse capitalization of WSII. WSII’s remote accommodations business, which consisted of Target Logistics Management LLC (“Target Logistics”) and its subsidiaries and Chard Camp Catering Services (“Chard,” and together with Target Logistics, the “Remote Accommodations Business”), was transferred to members of the Algeco Group on November 28, 2017 in a transaction under common control and was not included as part of the Business Combination. The operating results of the Remote Accommodations Business, net of tax, for the three and nine

8

months ended September 30, 2017 have been reported as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards

The Company qualifies as an emerging growth company (“EGC”) as defined under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”). Using exemptions provided under the JOBS Act provided to EGCs, the Company has elected to defer compliance with new or revised financial accounting standards until a company that is not an issuer (as defined under section 2(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002) is required to comply with such standards. As such, compliance dates included below pertain to non-issuers, and as permitted, early adoption dates for non-issuers are indicated.

Subject to limited exception, WillScot will cease to be EGC on the earlier (i) the last day of the fiscal year in which WillScot’s annual gross revenues exceed $1.07 billion, (ii) the date on which the Company issues more than $1.0 billion in nonconvertible debt securities during the preceding three-year period, and (iii) the date on which WillScot is deemed to be a large accelerated filer under the SEC’s rules. Based on the recent ModSpace (defined below) acquisition described in Note 2, WillScot anticipates that its 2019 annual gross revenues will exceed $1.07 billion. WillScot also anticipates that, due in part to the amount of Class A common stock issued by WillScot to fund the ModSpace acquisition, WillScot will be deemed to be a large accelerated filer at December 31, 2019 based on the value of its Class A common stock held by non-affiliates at June 30, 2019. WillScot currently foresees remaining an EGC until December 31, 2019, but would lose EGC eligibility immediately if it were to issue additional debt and exceed the debt issuance criteria described above.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which prescribes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in the accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The new guidance will supersede virtually all existing revenue guidance under GAAP and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption for non-public entities is permitted starting with annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The core principle contemplated by this new standard was that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount reflecting the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. New disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers are also required. In April and May 2016, the FASB also issued clarifying updates to the new standard specifically to address certain core principles including the identification of performance obligations, licensing guidance, the assessment of the collectability criterion, the presentation of taxes collected from customers, non-cash considerations, contract modifications and completed contracts at transition.

The Company is currently finalizing its evaluation of the impact that the updated guidance will have on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures. As part of the evaluation process, the Company continues to hold regular meetings with key stakeholders from across the organization to discuss the impact of the standard on its existing contracts. The Company plans to adopt Topic 606 using the modified retrospective transition approach.

The Company is utilizing a bottom-up approach to analyze the impact of the standard on its portfolio of contracts by reviewing the Company’s current accounting policies and practices to identify potential differences that would result from applying the requirements of the new standard to the Company’s existing revenue contracts.

As part of its implementation project, the Company has prepared analyses with respect to revenue stream scoping, performed contract reviews of a representative sample of customer arrangements, developed a gap analysis and evaluated the revised disclosure requirements. The two primary lines of business impacted by the adoption are new and used sales transactions and modular leasing services transactions. The Company has substantially completed its procedures based on the new and used sales and modular leasing service transactions that occurred through the second quarter of 2018 and is not aware of any significant changes based on the work performed to date. The Company has incorporated the recently acquired Modular Space Holdings, Inc. (“ModSpace”) into the project during the third quarter of 2018. As described in Note 2, ModSpace was acquired in August 2018 and the Company has commenced workshops with key stakeholders, detailed contract reviews and a financial statement disclosure gap evaluation specific to revenue streams acquired through the acquisition.

After finalizing its procedures during the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company will conclude on the level of impact that the adoption of ASC 606 will have on the consolidated financial statements, including financial statement disclosures. Specific to disclosures, the Company expects to provide additional detail regarding the disaggregation of revenue and contract balances. The Company is required to adopt the standard as of January 1, 2019 and plans to first present financial statements that reflect the adoption in the first quarter of 2019.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This guidance revises existing practice related to accounting for leases under ASC Topic 840, Leases (“ASC 840”) for both lessees and lessors. The new guidance requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for virtually all of their leases (other than leases that meet the definition of a short-term lease). The lease liability will be equal to the present value of lease payments and the right-of-use asset will be based on the lease liability, subject to adjustment such as for initial direct costs. For income statement purposes,

9

the new standard retains a dual model similar to ASC 840, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Operating leases will result in straight-line expense (similar to current accounting by lessees for operating leases under ASC 840) while finance leases will result in a front-loaded expense pattern (similar to current accounting by lessees for capital leases under ASC 840). While the new standard maintains similar accounting for lessors as under ASC 840, the new standard reflects updates to, among other things, align with certain changes to the lessee model. 

The new standard is effective for non-public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. However, based on WillScot's expectation that it will cease to be an EGC as of December 31, 2019, the Company plans to adopt the new standard in the fourth quarter of 2019. Adoption of the new standard could be required earlier in 2019 if WillScot loses EGC eligibility earlier than anticipated based on other criteria.

The guidance includes a number of practical expedients that the Company is evaluating and may elect to apply. The adoption of the new standard will require the Company to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities that will be significant to our consolidated balance sheet. The Company will continue to evaluate the impacts of this guidance on its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The Company plans to update its systems, processes and internal controls to meet the new reporting and disclosure requirements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date.

During December 2017, shortly after the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) was enacted, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“SAB 118”) which provides guidance on accounting for the Tax Act’s impact. SAB 118 provides a measurement period, which in no case should extend beyond one year from the Tax Act enactment date, during which a company acting in good faith may complete the accounting for the impacts of the Tax Act under ASC Topic 740. Per SAB 118, companies must reflect the income tax effects of the Tax Act in the reporting period in which the accounting under ASC Topic 740 is complete. To the extent the accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act is incomplete, companies can determine a reasonable estimate for those effects and record a provisional estimate in the financial statements in the first reporting period in which a reasonable estimate can be determined. If a company cannot determine a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements, it should continue to apply ASC 740 based on the provisions of the tax laws that were in effect immediately prior to the Tax Act being enacted. If a company is unable to provide a reasonable estimate of the impacts of the Tax Act in a reporting period, a provisional amount must be recorded in the first reporting period in which a reasonable estimate can be determined. As a result of the Tax Act, in 2017, the Company remeasured its net deferred tax liabilities and recognized a provisional net benefit of $28.1 million. In addition, based on information currently available, the Company recorded a provisional income tax expense of $2.4 million in 2017 related to the deemed repatriation of foreign earnings. The Company recorded a minor adjustment in 2018 to the provisional amounts recorded in its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 (see Note 9) and continues to evaluate the provisions of the Tax Act including guidance from the Department of Treasury and Internal Revenue Service. Additionally, the Company filed its US tax return for 2017 during the fourth quarter of 2018 and any changes to the estimates used to the final tax positions for temporary differences, earnings and profits will result in adjustments of the remeasurement amounts for the Tax Act recorded as of December 31, 2017.

The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the Global Low Taxed Intangible Income (“GILTI”) provision of the Tax Act. The Company is required to make an accounting policy election of either (1) treating GILTI as a current period expense when incurred or (2) factoring such amounts into the Company’s measurement of its deferred taxes. The Company has not completed its analysis and has not made a determination of its accounting policy for GILTI.

NOTE 2 - Acquisitions

Tyson Acquisition

On January 3, 2018, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Onsite Space LLC (d/b/a Tyson Onsite (“Tyson”)). Tyson provided modular space rental services in the Midwest, primarily in Indiana, Illinois and Missouri. The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred consisted of $24.0 million in cash consideration, net of cash acquired. The transaction was funded by borrowings under the ABL Facility (defined in Note 7).

Through September 30, 2018, the Company has recorded adjustments to the Tyson opening balance sheet, which increased rental equipment and accrued liabilities by $0.9 million and $0.1 million, respectively and decreased property, plant and equipment by $0.1 million. The offset of these adjustments was recorded to goodwill as detailed in Note 6. Increases or decreases in the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired may impact the Company’s statements of operations in future periods. The Company expects that the preliminary values assigned to the rental fleet, property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, deferred tax assets and other accrued tax liabilities will be finalized during the fourth quarter of 2018. 

Tyson results were immaterial to the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and as a result, the Company is not presenting pro-forma information.

Acton Acquisition

On December 20, 2017, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding ownership interests of Acton Mobile Holdings LLC (“Acton”) for a cash purchase price of $237.1 million, subject to certain adjustments. Acton owns all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of New Acton Mobile Industries, which provides modular space and portable storage rental services across the US. The acquisition was funded by cash on hand and borrowings under the ABL Facility.

Through September 30, 2018, the Company recorded adjustments to the Acton opening balance sheet, which increased accrued liabilities, deferred revenue, deferred tax assets and receivables by $0.8 million, $0.6 million, $0.8 million, and $2.4 million, respectively, and decreased rental equipment by $2.1 million. The offset of these adjustments was recorded to goodwill as detailed in Note 6. As a result of the timing of the transaction, the purchase price allocation for the rental equipment, intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, deferred tax assets, receivables, and other accrued liabilities acquired and assumed are based on preliminary valuations and are subject to change as the Company obtains additional information during the acquisition measurement period. Increases or decreases in the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired may impact the Company’s statements of operations in future periods. The Company expects that the preliminary values assigned to the rental equipment, intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, deferred tax assets, non-indemnified liabilities, and other accrued tax liabilities will be finalized during the fourth quarter of 2018.

Pro-forma results are presented in aggregate with the ModSpace acquisition below.

ModSpace Acquisition

On August 15, 2018 (the "Closing Date"), the Company acquired ModSpace, a privately-owned provider of office trailers, portable storage units and modular buildings. The acquisition was consummated by merging a special purpose subsidiary of the Company with and into ModSpace, with ModSpace surviving the merger as a subsidiary of WSII. The Company acquired ModSpace to create long-term shareholder value driven by, among other things, economies of scale, cost synergies and revenue opportunities unique to a combination of WillScot's and ModSpace's operations, and other benefits associated with being an industry-leading specialty rental services provider.

The aggregate purchase price for ModSpace was $1.2 billion and consisted of (i) $1.1 billion in cash, (ii) 6,458,229 shares of WillScot's Class A common stock (the "Stock Consideration") with a fair market value of $95.8 million and (iii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of WillScot’s Class A common stock at an exercise price of $15.50 per share (the "ModSpace Warrants") with a fair market value of $52.3 million, and (iv) a working capital adjustment of $5.7 million. Of the cash consideration, $3.0 million was deposited into an escrow account to fund any post-closing adjustments from differences between the estimated working capital and the actual working capital of ModSpace at closing. The final working capital of ModSpace at closing is still being evaluated by the Company and the sellers' representative in accordance with the terms of the purchase agreement. The acquisition was funded by the net proceeds of WillScot's issuance of 9,200,000 shares of Class A common stock (see Note 8), the net proceeds of WSII’s issuance of $300.0 million in senior secured notes and $200.0 million in senior unsecured notes (see Note 7), and borrowings under the ABL Facility (see Note 7).

The purchase price has been determined to be as follows:

Purchase Price 

(in thousands, except for per share amounts)	Price
Cash	$	1,054,416
Stock consideration (a)	95,796
ModSpace warrants (b)	52,310
Working capital adjustment (c)	5,724
Total purchase price	$	1,208,246
(a) The fair market value of the 6,458,229 shares issued as consideration was determined using the closing price on August 15, 2018, of $15.78 per share less a discount of 6.0%, based on a lock up agreement executed in connection with the acquisition of ModSpace.
(b) Warrants were valued assuming a fair market value of $5.23 as estimated using a Black-Scholes valuation model as of August 15, 2018.
(c) The estimated working capital adjustment as of the Closing Date was $5.7 million. The working capital amount is subject to post-close adjustments.

The acquisition date fair value of the stock consideration was estimated using a Black-Scholes valuation model. The estimated fair value of the shares are a level 3 fair value measurement. The fair value of each share is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: expected dividend yield, expected stock price volatility, weighted-average risk-free interest rate and average expected term of the lock up period on the shares. The volatility assumption used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model is derived from the historical daily change in the market price of the Company's common stock, as well as the historical daily changes in the market price of its peer group, based on weighting, as determined by the Company. The risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes model is based on the implied US

11

Treasury bill yield curve at the date of grant with a remaining term equal to the Company’s expected term assumption. The Company has never declared or paid a cash dividend on common shares.

Expected Volatility	28.6	%
Risk-free rate of interest	2.2	%
Dividend Yield	—	%
Expected life (years)	0.5

The acquisition date fair value of the warrants was estimated using a Black-Scholes valuation model. The estimated fair value of the warrants is a level 3 fair value measurement. The fair value of each warrant is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: expected dividend yield, expected stock price volatility, weighted-average risk-free interest rate and weighted-average expected term of the warrants. The volatility assumption used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model is derived from the historical daily change in the market price of the Company's common stock, as well as the historical daily changes in the market price of its peer group, based on weighting, as determined by the Company. The risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes model is based on the implied US Treasury bill yield curve at the date of grant with a remaining term equal to the Company’s expected term assumption. The Company has never declared or paid a cash dividend on common shares.

Expected Volatility	35.0	%
Risk-free rate of interest	2.7	%

Expected life (years)	4.3

The following table summarizes the preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date, August 15, 2018. The Company’s estimated fair value of ModSpace’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date are determined based on preliminary valuations and analyses. Accordingly, the Company has made provisional estimates for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The valuation of intangible assets acquired is based on certain valuation assumptions yet to be finalized, including cash flow projections, discount rates, contributory asset charges and other valuation model inputs. The valuation of tangible long-lived assets acquired is dependent upon, among other things, refinement of the inputs in the valuation model and an analysis of the condition and estimated remaining useful lives of the assets acquired. In addition to finalizing the valuation of acquired assets, the Company is analyzing complex provisions of tax law regarding treatment of tax attributes upon ModSpace's March 2017 emergence from bankruptcy, implications of the Tax Act as well as scheduling the reversal of deferred tax balances thereof. The Company expects its analysis to be substantially complete by the close of the fourth quarter. Due to the provisional nature of the aforementioned items, the Company has not changed its judgment about the realizability of its pre-existing deferred tax assets as a result of the business combination. The provisional amounts reflected are subject to further adjustment, which may affect the fair values ascribed to goodwill, acquired intangible and tangible assets and the related deferred tax balances. Substantial completion of the requisite analyses may result in changes to acquired deferred tax liabilities which thereby may also affect the Company’s judgment about the realizability of its pre-existing deferred tax assets for which any reductions in the valuation allowance will be reflected separate from the business combination as discrete adjustments to income tax expense (benefit) in the period in which it is determined.

As described in Note 2, the Company acquired ModSpace in August 2018. A preliminary valuation of the acquired net assets of ModSpace resulted in the recognition of $203.3 million and $32.5 million of goodwill in the Modular - US segment and Modular - Other North America segment, which the Company expects will be non-deductible for income tax purposes. The Company expects to finalize the valuation of the acquired net assets of ModSpace within the one-year measurement period from the date of acquisition. 

As described in Note 2, the Company acquired Tyson in January 2018. A preliminary valuation of the acquired net assets of Tyson resulted in the recognition of $3.4 million of goodwill in the Modular - US segment, which the Company expects will be deductible for tax purposes. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company made a $0.3 million and $0.7 million adjustment to the preliminary valuation of the acquired net assets of Tyson, including the related goodwill, due to further evaluation of rental equipment and property, plant and equipment, and non-indemnified liabilities.

As discussed in further detail in Note 2, the Company acquired Acton in December 2017. A preliminary valuation of the acquired net assets of Acton resulted in the recognition of $28.6 million of goodwill to the Modular - US segment, as defined in Note 14, for the year ended December 31, 2017. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company made a $1.7 million net adjustment that increased the acquired net assets of Acton, primarily due to further evaluation of insurance related receivables. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company made net adjustments of 

17

$0.3 million that decreased the acquired net assets of Acton, due to further evaluation of rental equipment and non-indemnified liabilities partially offset by changes in insurance-related receivables and deferred tax assets.

  The gross carrying amount, accumulated amortization and net book value ("NBV") of the intangible assets at the respective balance sheet dates consisted of the following:

ABL Facilities

Former Algeco Group Revolver

Prior to the Business Combination, WSII depended on the Algeco Group for financing, which centrally managed all treasury and cash management. In October 2012, the Algeco Group entered into a multi-currency asset-based revolving credit facility (the “Algeco Group Revolver”), which had a maximum aggregate availability of the equivalent of $1.355 billion. The maximum borrowing availability to WSII in US dollars and Canadian dollars (“CAD”) was $760.0 million and $175.0 million, respectively.

Interest expense of $8.7 million and $23.2 million related to the Algeco Group Revolver was included in interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017.

ABL Facility

On November 29, 2017, WS Holdings, WSII and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an ABL credit agreement (the “ABL Facility”) that provided a senior secured revolving credit facility in the initial aggregate principal amount of up to $600.0 million. The ABL Facility matures on May 29, 2022.

In July and August 2018, the Company entered into three amendments (the "ABL Amendments") to the ABL Facility that, among other things, (i) permitted the ModSpace acquisition and the Company’s financing thereof, (ii) increased the ABL Facility limit to $1.425 billion in the aggregate, with an accordion feature allowing up to $1.8 billion of capacity, and (iii) increased certain thresholds, basket sizes and default and notice triggers to account for the Company’s increased scale following the ModSpace acquisition.

After giving effect to the ABL Amendments, the ABL Facility, which matures on May 29, 2022, consists of (i) a $1.285 billion asset-backed revolving credit facility (the “US ABL Facility”) for WSII and certain of its domestic subsidiaries (the “US Borrowers”), (ii) a $140.0 million asset-based revolving credit facility (the “Canadian ABL Facility”) for certain Canadian subsidiaries of WSII (the “Canadian Borrowers,” and together with the US Borrowers, the “Borrowers”), and (iii) an accordion feature that permits the Borrowers to increase the lenders’ commitments in an aggregate amount not to exceed $375.0 million, subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, plus any voluntary prepayments that are accompanied by permanent commitment reductions under the ABL Facility.

Borrowings under the ABL Facility, at the Borrower’s option, bear interest at an adjusted LIBOR or base rate, in each case plus an applicable margin. At inception of the ABL Facility until March 31, 2018, the applicable margin was fixed at 2.50% for LIBOR borrowings and 1.50% for base rate borrowings. Commencing on March 31, 2018, the applicable margins are subject to one step-down of 0.25% or one step-up of 0.25%, based on excess availability levels with respect to the ABL Facility. The ABL Facility requires the payment of an annual commitment fee on the unused available borrowings of between 0.375% and 0.5% per annum. At September 30, 2018, the weighted average interest rate for borrowings under the ABL Facility was 4.65%.

Borrowing availability under the US ABL Facility and the Canadian ABL Facility is equal to the lesser of (i) with respect to US Borrowers, $1.285 billion and the US Borrowing Base (defined below) (the “US Line Cap”), and (ii) with respect to the Canadian Borrower, $140.0 million and the Canadian Borrowing Base (defined below) (the “Canadian Line Cap,” together with the US Line Cap, the “Line Cap”).

The US Borrowing Base is, at any time of determination, an amount (net of reserves) equal to the sum of:

◦ 85% of the net book value of the US Borrowers’ eligible accounts receivable, plus

◦ the lesser of (i) 95% of the net book value of the US Borrowers’ eligible rental equipment and (ii) 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of the US Borrowers’ eligible rental equipment, minus

◦ customary reserves.

The Canadian Borrowing Base is, at any time of determination, an amount (net of reserves) equal to the sum of:

◦ 85% of the net book value of the Canadian Borrowers’ eligible accounts receivable, plus

◦ the lesser of (i) 95% of the net book value of the Canadian Borrowers’ eligible rental equipment and (ii) 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of the Canadian Borrowers’ eligible rental equipment, plus

◦ portions of the US Borrowing Base that have been allocated to the Canadian Borrowing Base, minus

◦ customary reserves.

At September 30, 2018, the Line Cap was $1.425 billion and the Borrowers had $552.9 million of available borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility, including $414.5 million under the US ABL Facility and $138.4 million under the Canadian ABL Facility. At December 31, 2017, prior to the ABL Amendments, the Line Cap was $600.0 million and the Borrowers had $281.1 million of available borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility, including $211.1 million under the US ABL Facility and $70.0 million under the Canadian ABL Facility.

Borrowing capacity under the US ABL Facility is made available for up to $75.0 million of standby letters of credit and up to $75.0 million of swingline loans, and borrowing capacity under the Canadian ABL Facility is made available for up to $60.0 million of standby letters of credit, and $50.0 million of swingline loans. Letters of credit and bank guarantees carried

19

fees of 2.625% at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The Company had issued $13.0 million and $8.9 million of standby letters of credit under the ABL Facility at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

The ABL Facility requires the Borrowers to maintain a (i) minimum interest coverage ratio of 2.00:1.00 and (ii) maximum total net leverage ratio of 5.50:1.00, in each case, at any time when the excess availability under the ABL Facility is less than the greater of (a) $135.0 million and (b) an amount equal to 10% of the Line Cap.

The ABL Facility also contains a number of customary negative covenants. Such covenants, among other things, may limit or restrict the ability of each of the Borrowers, their restricted subsidiaries, and where applicable, WS Holdings, to: incur additional indebtedness, issue disqualified stock and make guarantees; incur liens; engage in mergers or consolidations or fundamental changes; sell assets; pay dividends and repurchase capital stock; make investments, loans and advances, including acquisitions; amend organizational documents and master lease documents; enter into certain agreements that would restrict the ability to pay dividends or incur liens on assets; repay certain junior indebtedness; enter into sale and leaseback transactions; and change the conduct of its business.

The aforementioned restrictions are subject to certain exceptions including (i) the ability to incur additional indebtedness, liens, investments, dividends, and prepayments of junior indebtedness subject, in each case, to compliance with certain financial metrics and certain other conditions and (ii) a number of other traditional exceptions that grant the Borrowers continued flexibility to operate and develop their businesses. The ABL Facility also contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and events of default. The Company is in compliance with these covenants and restrictions as of September 30, 2018.

The Company had $859.0 million and $310.0 million in outstanding principal under the ABL Facility at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

The ABL Amendments were treated as a debt modification to the ABL Facility under ASC 470-50, Debt, Modifications and Extinguishments. All ABL Facility lenders prior to the ABL Amendments are continuing lenders after giving effect to the ABL Amendments. The Company incurred an additional $19.0 million in debt issuance costs and discounts associated with the ABL Amendments that have been deferred and will be amortized through the remaining period until the maturity date of the ABL Facility.  Debt issuance costs and discounts of $28.5 million and $12.7 million are included in the carrying value of the ABL Facility at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

Interest expense of $7.6 million and $15.8 million related to the ABL Facility was included in interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

The Company has entered into several arrangements in which it has sold branch locations and simultaneously leased the associated properties back from the various purchasers. Due to the terms of the lease agreements, these transactions are treated as financing arrangements.

The terms of the financing arrangements range from approximately eighteen months to ten years. The interest rates implicit in these financing arrangements is approximately 8.0%.

Notes Due To and From Affiliates

In conjunction with the Business Combination, all notes due to and from affiliates were settled, and there is no related interest expense or interest income related to the notes due to or from affiliates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Prior to the Business Combination, the Algeco Group distributed borrowings from its third party notes to entities within the Algeco Group, including WSII, through intercompany loans. WSII previously recorded these intercompany loans as notes due to affiliates with maturity dates of June 30, 2018 and October 15, 2019.

Interest expense of $16.7 million and $48.0 million associated with these notes due to affiliates is reflected in interest expense in the consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recognized $3.7 million and $9.8 million, respectively, of interest income related to the loans.

NOTE 8 – Equity

On July 30, 2018, WillScot closed a public offering of 8,000,000 shares of its Class A common stock at an offering price of $16.00 per share. On August 10, 2018, the underwriters exercised their right to purchase an additional 1,200,000 shares at the public offering price. The net offering proceeds, including the exercise of the over-allotment option, were $139.0 million, after deducting discount and offering expenses of $8.2 million.

Warrants

On July 10, 2018, the Company was notified that its public warrants would be delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) based on the Company’s failure to satisfy a minimum holder requirement applicable to the warrants.

The changes in the non-controlling interest for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 were as follows:

(in thousands)	Total
Balance at December 31, 2017	$	48,931
Net loss attributable to non-controlling interest	(3,715)
Other comprehensive loss	(26)
Issuance of common stock and contribution of proceeds to WSII	7,574
Acquisition of ModSpace and the effect of the related financing transactions	13,614
Balance at September 30, 2018	$	66,378

As disclosed under Common Stock above, during the three months ended September 30, 2018, WillScot issued 9,200,000 shares of Class A common stock through an underwritten public offering, the proceeds of which were immediately contributed down through WS Holdings to WSII for purposes of funding part of the ModSpace acquisition. Sapphire waived its preemptive right to participate in the public offering and pursuant to the shareholders agreement entered into by WS Holdings' shareholders, Sapphire's ownership in WS Holdings was adjusted from 10% to 9% accordingly. As disclosed in Note 2, the

24

Company closed on the ModSpace Acquisition that resulted in the contribution of ModSpace's net assets of $972.4 million to WSII. The net impact of the transactions above, resulted in a non-recurring adjustment of $21.2 million to additional paid in capital and non-controlling interest on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Despite the dilution in the non-controlling interest ownership in WS Holdings, the adjustment increases the non-controlling interest equity as a result of the significant increase in net assets from the ModSpace acquisition.

NOTE 9 – Income Taxes

The Company recorded an income tax benefit of approximately $6.5 million and $13.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, and $7.6 million and $17.8 million for the same periods of 2017.

The Company’s effective tax rate (“ETR”) for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 was 15.0% and 36.2%, respectively, and 23.9% and 33.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The Company’s estimated annual ETR ("EAETR") of 14.8% on the forecasted pre-tax loss is lower than the US statutory rate of 21.0% due to certain offsets to the overall tax benefit, namely: (1) a partial valuation allowance, $8.0 million tax expense, due to the limitation on the deductibility of interest expense estimated for the current year partially offset by reduction to the deferred tax liability, $2.3 million tax benefit, established for the book over tax basis difference for the Company's investment in its Canadian subsidiary and (2) a gross permanent disallowance, $6.6 million, of which $5.7 million relates to the non-deductibility of certain transaction costs in relation to the ModSpace acquisition.

The Company’s ETR for the three months ended September 30, 2018 of 15.0% is comparable to its EAETR due to minimal discrete items for the quarter of $0.6 million, which is primarily attributable to adjustments to deferred taxes for legislation enacted in certain state taxing jurisdictions during the quarter, notably, in New Jersey. 

The Company’s ETR for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 of 23.9% is higher than the EAETR due to $5.3 million of discrete tax benefit recorded year to date, of which a $4.3 million tax benefit is attributable to a reduction in our net state deferred tax liability in Maryland due to change in tax law enacted in the second quarter.

In addition, to the foregoing, the Company also recognized tax expense of $0.1 million and tax benefit of $0.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, related to foreign currency gains and losses. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recognized tax expense of $1.6 million and $4.8 million, respectively, related to foreign currency gains. The Company also adjusted the provisional amounts for the impacts of the Tax Act under SAB 118 reported in its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017. As of September 30, 2018, a $0.6 million tax benefit has been recorded in relation to tax reform guidance under SAB 118. As noted above, the Company recorded a discrete benefit of $4.3 million in the second quarter of 2018 to reduce its net state deferred tax liability primarily related to the enactment of an apportionment rule change in Maryland.

NOTE 10 - Fair Value Measures

The fair value of financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The Company utilizes the suggested accounting guidance for the three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 -	Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 -	Observable inputs, other than Level 1 inputs in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 -	Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions

The Company has assessed that the fair value of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, trade payables, capital lease and other financing obligations, and other current liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

25

The following table shows the carrying amounts and fair values of financial assets and liabilities, including their levels in the fair value hierarchy:

	September 30, 2018								December 31, 2017
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value						Carrying Amount		Fair Value
(in thousands)			Level 1		Level 2		Level 3				Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Financial liabilities not measured at fair value
US ABL Facility (a)	$	830,573	$	—	$	857,500	$	—	$	297,323	$	—	$	310,000	$	—
Canadian ABL Facility (a)	—		—		1,549		—		—		—		—		—
2022 Secured Notes (a)	291,853		—		310,416		—		290,687		—		310,410		—
2023 Secured Notes (a)	293,637		—		298,185		—		—		—		—		—

(a) See Note 7 - Debt.

There were no transfers of financial instruments between the three levels of the fair value hierarchy during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. The fair value of the Company’s ABL Facility is primarily based upon observable market data such as market interest rates. The fair value of the Company’s 2022 Secured Notes, the 2023 Secured Notes and the Unsecured Notes is based on their last trading price at the end of each period obtained from a third party.

NOTE 11 - Restructuring

The Company incurred costs associated with restructuring plans designed to streamline operations and reduce costs of $6.1 million and $1.2 million and $7.2 million and $2.1 million net of reversals, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The following is a summary of the activity in the Company’s restructuring accruals for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017:

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in thousands)	2018		2017		2018		2017
Balance at beginning of the period	$	967	$	2,130	$	227	$	1,793
Charges during the period	6,137		1,156		7,214		2,124
Cash payments during the period	(3,661)		(803)		(3,991)		(1,442)
Effects of movements in foreign exchange rates	5		7		(2)		15
Balance at end of period	$	3,448	$	2,490	$	3,448	$	2,490

The restructuring charges for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 relate primarily to employee termination costs and lease exit costs in connection with the integration of Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace. As part of the restructuring plans, certain employees were required to render future service in order to receive their termination benefits. The termination costs associated with these employees was recognized over the period from the commencement of the restructuring plans to the actual date of termination. The Company anticipates that the remaining actions contemplated under the $3.4 million accrual as of September 30, 2018, will be substantially completed by the end of the third quarter of 2019.

The restructuring charges for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 primarily related to corporate employee termination costs incurred as part of the Algeco Group.

Segments

The $6.1 million and $1.2 million of restructuring charges for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 includes: $5.9 million and $0.3 million of charges pertaining to the Modular - US segment; $0.2 million and $0.0 million of charges pertaining to the Modular - Other North America segment; and $0.0 million and $0.9 million of charges pertaining to Corporate and other.

The  $7.2 million and  $2.1 million of restructuring charges for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017  includes: $7.0 million and $0.2 million of charges pertaining to the Modular - US segment; $0.2 million and $0.0 million of charges pertaining to the Modular - Other North America segment; and $0.0 million and $1.9 million of charges pertaining to Corporate and other.

NOTE 12 - Stock-Based Compensation

On November 16, 2017, the Company’s shareholders approved a long-term incentive award plan (the “Plan”). The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. Under the Plan, the Committee may grant an aggregate of 4,000,000 shares of Class A common stock in the form of non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance compensation awards and stock bonus awards. Stock-based payments including the grant of stock options, RSUs, and RSAs are subject to service-based vesting requirements, and expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Forfeitures are accounted for as they occur. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, no RSAs, RSUs or stock options were granted under the Plan. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, 27,675 RSAs, 921,730 RSUs and 589,257 stock option awards were granted under the Plan. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, 0 and 35,050 RSUs were forfeited.

Stock-based payments to employees include grants of stock options and RSUs, which are recognized in the financial statements based on their fair value.

RSUs and RSAs are valued based on the intrinsic value of the difference between the exercise price, if any, of the award and the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the grant date. RSAs vest over a one-year period and RSUs vest over a four-year period.

Stock options vest in tranches over a period of four years and expire ten years from the grant date. The fair value of each stock option award on the grant date is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: expected dividend yield, expected stock price volatility, weighted-average risk-free interest rate and weighted-average expected term of the options. The volatility assumption used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model is based on peer group volatility as the Company does not have a sufficient trading history as a stand-alone public company. Additionally, due to an insufficient history with respect to stock option activity and post-vesting cancellations, the expected term assumption is based on the simplified method under GAAP, which is based on the vesting period and contractual term for each tranche of awards. The mid-point between the weighted-average vesting term and the expiration date is used as the expected term under this method. The risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes model is based on the implied US Treasury bill yield curve at the date of grant with a remaining term equal to the Company’s expected term assumption. The Company has never declared or paid a cash dividend on common shares.

As of September 30, 2018, none of the granted RSAs, RSUs or stock options had vested.

Restricted Stock Awards

The following table summarizes the Company’s RSA activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2018:

	Number of Shares	Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value

Granted	27,675	13.60
Forfeited	—	—
Balance, September 30, 2018	27,675	$	13.60

Compensation expense for RSAs recognized in SG&A on the condensed consolidated statements of operations was $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. At September 30, 2018, unrecognized compensation cost related to RSAs totaled $0.2 million and is expected to be recognized over the remaining six-month vesting period.

NOTE 13 - Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is involved in various lawsuits or claims in the ordinary course of business. Management is of the opinion that there is no pending claim or lawsuit which, if adversely determined, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 14 - Segment Reporting

The Company historically has operated in two principal lines of business; modular leasing and sales and remote accommodations, which were managed separately. The Remote Accommodations Business was considered a single operating segment. As part of the Business Combination, the Remote Accommodations segment is no longer owned by the Company and is reported as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements. As such, the segment was excluded from the segment information below.

28

Modular leasing and sales is comprised of two operating segments: US and Other North America. The US modular operating segment (“Modular - US”) consists of the contiguous 48 states and Hawaii. The Other North America operating segment (“Modular - Other North America”) consists of Alaska, Canada and Mexico. Corporate and other includes eliminations of costs and revenue between segments and Algeco Group corporate costs not directly attributable to the underlying segments. Following the Business Combination, no additional Algeco Group corporate costs were incurred and the Company’s ongoing corporate costs are included within the Modular - US segment. Total assets for each reportable segment are not available because the Company utilizes a centralized approach to working capital management. Transactions between reportable segments are not significant.

As discussed in Note 6, the net assets acquired from ModSpace were allocated to both the Modular - US and Modular - Other North America segments. The US operations of ModSpace are included in the Modular - US segment and the Canadian operations of ModSpace are included in the Modular - Other North America segment. The operations and net assets acquired from Acton and Tyson are both included in the Modular - US segment.

The Company evaluates business segment performance on Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes certain items as shown in the reconciliation of the Company’s consolidated net loss before tax to Adjusted EBITDA below. Management believes that evaluating segment performance excluding such items is meaningful because it provides insight with respect to intrinsic operating results of the Company.

The Company also regularly evaluates gross profit by segment to assist in the assessment of its operational performance. The Company considers Adjusted EBITDA to be the more important metric because it more fully captures the business performance of the segments, inclusive of indirect costs.

Reportable Segments

The following tables set forth certain information regarding each of the Company’s reportable segments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively:

NOTE 15 - Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic income (loss) per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to WillScot by the weighted average number of its Class A common shares outstanding during the period. Concurrently with the Business Combination, 12,425,000 of WillScot's Class A common shares were placed into escrow by shareholders and became ineligible to vote or participate in the economic rewards available to the other Class A shareholders. Escrowed shares were therefore excluded from the EPS calculation while deposited in the escrow account. 6,212,500 of the escrowed shares were released to shareholders on January 19, 2018, and the remaining escrowed shares were released to shareholders on August 21, 2018.

WillScot's Class B common shares have no rights to dividends or distributions made by the Company and, in turn, are excluded from the EPS calculation.

Diluted EPS is computed similarly to basic net income (loss) per share, except that it includes the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities were exercised. Effects of potentially dilutive securities are presented only in periods in which they are dilutive. Stock options, restricted stock units and restricted stock awards, representing 589,257, 886,680 and 27,675 shares of Class A common stock outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. Warrants representing 44,750,000 shares of Class A shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Pursuant to the exchange agreement entered into by WS Holding's shareholders, Sapphire has the right, but not the obligation, to exchange all, but not less than all, of its shares of WS Holdings into newly issued shares of WillScot’s Class A common stock in a private placement transaction. The impact of this exchange has been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would have been anti-dilutive.

On August 22, 2018, WillScot’s majority stockholder, Sapphire, entered into a margin loan (the "Margin Loan ") under which all of its WillScot Class A common stock was pledged to secure $125.0 of borrowings under the loan agreement. WillScot is not a party to the loan agreement and has no obligations thereunder, but WillScot delivered an issuer agreement to the lenders under which WillScot has agreed to certain obligations relating to the shares pledged by Sapphire and, subject to applicable law and stock exchange rules, not to take any actions that are intended to materially hinder or delay the exercise of any remedies with respect to the pledged shares. In connection with the Margin Loan, on August 24, 2018, WSII entered into a two-year supply agreement with Target Logistics, an affiliate controlled by Sapphire, under which, subject to limited exception, WSII acquired the exclusive right to supply modular units, portable storage units, and other ancillary products ordered by the affiliate in the United States. WillScot's leasing revenue and rental unit sales associated with Target Logistics for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 are disclosed above. As of September 30, 2018, the 49,041,906 shares of WillScot Class A common stock pledged by Sapphire represented approximately 48.9% of WillScot’s issued and outstanding Class A shares.

The Company had capital expenditures of rental equipment purchased from related party affiliates of $1.2 million and $0.5 million for three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $3.0 million and $1.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The Company paid $0.1 million and $0.2 million in professional fees to an entity, that two of the Company’s Directors also served in the same role for that entity, during the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $1.1 million and $0.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

NOTE 17 - Subsequent Events

On November 6, 2018, WSII entered into an interest rate swap transaction with a financial counterparty that effectively converts $400.0 million in aggregate notional amount of its variable-rate debt into fixed-rate debt. The fixed rate paid by WSII is 3.06% and the variable rate received resets monthly to a one-month LIBOR rate. The swap transaction, which matures on May 29, 2022, was consummated to mitigate the interest rate risk inherent in WSII’s floating-rate credit agreement, which also matures on May 29, 2022, and not for trading or speculative purposes. The master agreement that governs the interest rate swap contains customary representations, warranties and covenants and may be terminated prior to its expiration.

On November 8, 2018, WillScot announced the commencement of an offer to each holder of its public and private warrants to purchase one-half share of Class A common stock, par value of $0.0001 per share, of WillScot for a purchase price of $5.75 (the “Warrants”) to receive 0.1818 common shares in exchange for each Warrant tendered by the holder and exchanged pursuant to the offer (the “Offer”). The warrants issued in connection with the Company's acquisition of ModSpace, each of which is exercisable for one share of WillScot Class A common stock at an exercise price of $15.50 per share, are not subject to the Offer. The Offer is made solely upon the terms and conditions in a Prospectus/Offer to Exchange and other related offering materials that are being distributed to holders of the Warrants. The Offer will be open until 11:59 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, on December 6, 2018, or such later time and date to which WillScot may extend.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to help the reader understand WillScot Corporation (“WillScot” or the “Company”), our operations and our present business environment. MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto, contained in Part I, Item 1 of this report.

On November 29, 2017, the Company, through its subsidiary, Williams Scotsman Holdings Corp. (“WS Holdings”), acquired all of the equity interest of Williams Scotsman International, Inc. (“WSII”) via a reverse recapitalization (the “Business Combination”). As a result of the Business Combination, (i) WillScot’s consolidated financial results for periods prior to November 29, 2017 reflect the financial results of WSII and its consolidated subsidiaries, as the accounting predecessor to WillScot, and (ii) for periods from and after this date, WillScot’s financial results reflect those of WillScot and its consolidated subsidiaries (including WSII and its subsidiaries) as the successor following the Business Combination.

Prior to the completion of the Business Combination, WSII also provided full-service remote workforce accommodation solutions in their remote accommodations business, which consisted of Target Logistics Management LLC (“Target Logistics”) and its subsidiaries and Chard Camp Catering Services (“Chard,” and together with Target Logistics, the “Remote Accommodations Business”). A parent company of WSII’s former owners, Algeco Scotsman Global S.à r.l., (together with its subsidiaries, the “Algeco Group”), undertook an internal restructuring (the “Carve-Out Transaction”) whereby certain assets related to WSII’s historical Remote Accommodations Business were transferred from WSII to other entities owned by the Algeco Group. This Remote Accommodations Business segment in its entirety is presented as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the US (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. We use certain non-GAAP financial information that we believe is important for purposes of comparison to prior periods and development of future projections and earnings growth prospects. This information is also used by management to measure the profitability of our ongoing operations and analyze our business performance and trends. Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures are provided in this section where presented.

Executive Summary and Outlook

We are the leading provider of modular space and portable storage solutions in the United States (“US”), Canada and Mexico. In the third quarter of 2018, we completed the acquisition of Modular Space Holdings, Inc. (“ModSpace”) for a total purchase price of approximately $1.2 billion. With the addition of ModSpace, as of September 30, 2018, our branch network included over 120 locations and additional storage lots to service more than 50,000 customers across the US, Canada and Mexico. We offer our customers an extensive selection of “Ready to Work” modular space and portable storage solutions and now manage a fleet of over 132,000 modular space units and over 26,000 portable storage units. We remain focused on our core priorities of growing modular leasing revenues by increasing modular space units on rent, both organically and through our consolidation strategy, delivering “Ready to Work” solutions to our customers with value-added products and services (“VAPS”), and on continually improving the overall customer experience.

Subsequent to the close of the ModSpace transaction on August 15, 2018, we began the process to integrate ModSpace's operations into our organizational structure, branch footprint, shared services and information technology platform. These efforts are well underway and effective November 1, 2018, our combined sales organization began writing all new contracts (including those associated with legacy ModSpace assets) from WillScot's operating and information technology platform. We anticipate full information technology cut-over from the ModSpace systems in the first quarter of 2019 and will continue our integration efforts around real estate consolidation and fleet relocation on both the Acton Mobile ("Acton") and ModSpace acquisitions.  

Before announcing the ModSpace acquisition, we secured debt commitments from several financial institutions to fund the acquisition. In the third quarter, we entered into or amended several agreements to fund the cash consideration paid in the acquisition on a permanent basis and to pay related fees and expenses. In particular we:

• upsized our senior secured revolving credit facility (the "ABL Facility") to $1.425 billion (expandable to $1.8 billion through an accordion feature) and obtained the amendments required to finance the acquisition and to give effect to our greater scale thereafter;

• completed a $300.0 million private placement of 6.875% senior secured notes due 2023 (the "2023 Secured Notes");

36

• completed a $200.0 million private placement of senior unsecured notes due 2023 (the "Unsecured Notes"); and

• raised $147.2 million of gross proceeds from an underwritten common stock offering.

For the three months ended September 30, 2018, key drivers of financial performance include:

• Increased total revenues by $102.7 million, or 88.4% as compared to the same period in 2017, driven by a 88.4% increase in our core leasing and services revenues from both organic growth, and due to the impact of the Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace acquisitions discussed in Note 2 of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. New and rental unit sales increased 117.7% and 45.5%, respectively, also driven by acquisitions. 

• On a pro-forma basis, including results of WillScot, Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace for all periods presented, total revenues increased $30.4 million, or 11.3%, driven by increases in core leasing revenues as a result of rate improvements and due to increased new sales.

• Increased the Modular - US segment revenues which represents 90.3% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2018, by $93.9 million, or 90.5%, as compared to the same period in 2017, through:

- Average modular space monthly rental rate growth of 3.1% to $559 including the impacts of acquisitions primarily through increases in the price of our units. Organic increases on unit pricing and VAPS pricing and penetration on the Williams Scotsman legacy fleet were partially offset by lower rates on units acquired from Acton and Tyson and to a lesser extent, ModSpace, and by lower VAPS pricing and penetration on all acquired fleet; and

- Increased average modular space units on rent by 31,795 units, or 87.9%, due to of the Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace acquisitions; and

- Average modular space monthly utilization increased 160 basis points (“bps”) to 73.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. This increase was driven by higher utilization on the acquired ModSpace fleet as compared to the overall average including fleet acquired from Acton and Tyson. However, utilization decreased by 90 bps during the quarter as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2017, as a result of lower utilization on acquired fleet from Acton and Tyson; and

- On a pro-forma basis, including results of WillScot, Acton, and ModSpace for all periods presented, average modular space monthly rental rate increased 13.4% on consistent average modular space units on rent.

• Increased the Modular - Other North America segment revenues which represented 9.7% of revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2018, by $8.6 million, or 67.7% as compared to the same period in 2017. Increases were driven primarily by:

- Average modular space monthly rental rate increased 9.5% to $587; and 

- Average modular space units on rent increased by 2,154 units, or 40.8% as compared to the same period in 2017 driven primarily by acquired units from the ModSpace transaction, as well as organic increases at Williams Scotsman; and 

- Average modular space monthly utilization increased by 320 bps as compared to the same period in 2017 to 57.3%, and increased 20 bps as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018.

- On a pro-forma basis, including results of WillScot and ModSpace for all periods presented, Modular - Other North America segment modular space units on rent decreased 3.6%, however average modular space monthly rental rate increased 0.9%.

• Generated Adjusted EBITDA of $58.5 million and $6.2 million for the Modular - US Segment and the Modular - Other North America Segment, respectively, for combined Adjusted EBITDA of $64.6 million between the Modular - US Segment and the Modular - Other North America Segment, representing an increase of $32.4 million or 100.6% as compared to the same period in 2017, which includes the impact of the Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace acquisitions discussed in Note 2 of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Our customers operate in a diversified set of end markets, including commercial and industrial, construction, education, energy and natural resources, government and other end-markets. We track several market leading indicators including those related to our two largest end markets, the commercial and industrial segment and the construction segment, which collectively accounted for approximately 80% of our revenues in the three months ended September 30, 2018, including the customer base from the Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace acquisitions. Market fundamentals underlying these markets remain favorable, and we expect continued modest market growth in the next several years. Potential increased capital spending as a result tax reform, discussions of increased infrastructure spending, and rebuilding in areas impacted by natural disasters in 2017 and 2018 across the US also provide us confidence in continued demand for our products.

37

Although only 9.7% of our revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2018 were from the Modular - Other North America segment, markets in Canada, including Alaska, and Mexico, show continued improvement despite declines experienced over the last several years related to the energy markets. Improvement in average modular space monthly rental rates, average modular space units on rent, and average modular space monthly utilization continued in the third quarter as compared to the same period in 2017. However, competitive pressures in these markets may continue to depress pricing given current levels of supply in the market until utilization across the industry improves.

Comparison of Three Months Ended September 30, 2018 and 2017

Revenue: Total revenue increased $102.7 million, or 88.4%, to $218.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from $116.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The increase was primarily the result of a 88.4% increase in leasing and services revenue driven by improved pricing and volumes. Average modular space monthly rental rates increased 3.7% to $561 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, and average modular space units on rent increased 33,949 units, or 81.9%. Improved pricing was driven by a combination of our price optimization tools and processes, as well as by continued growth in our “Ready to Work” solutions and increased VAPS penetration across our customer base, offset partially by the average modular space monthly rental rates on acquired units for Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace. Improved volumes were driven by units acquired as part of the Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace acquisitions, as well as increased modular delivery and installation revenues on the combined rental fleet of 90.2%. The increase in leasing and services revenue was further complemented by increases of $11.3 million, or 117.7%, and $3.0 million, or 45.5% on new unit and rental unit sales, respectively, as compared to the same period in 2017. The increase year over year in new sales was primarily driven by a single large sale project within the US. Increases in rental unit sales was primarily a result of the ModSpace acquisition and our larger post-acquisition fleet size.

On a pro-forma basis, including results of WillScot, Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace for all periods presented, total revenues increased $30.4 million, or 11.3%, year-over-year for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Increases were driven by core leasing and services revenues as a result of a 12.0% increase in average modular space monthly rental rates, and due to increased new sales.

Total average units on rent for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 were 91,194 and 53,705, respectively. The increase was due to units acquired as part of the Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace acquisitions, with modular space average units on rent increasing by 33,949 units, or 81.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Modular space average monthly rental rates increased 3.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Portable storage average units on rent increased by 3,540 units, or 28.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Average portable storage monthly rental rates increased 2.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The average modular space unit utilization rate during the three months ended September 30, 2018 was 71.8%, as compared to 71.3% during the same period in 2017. The increase in average modular space utilization rate was driven by improvement in the modular space average units on rent in the Modular - Other North America business segment, slightly offset by declines in the Modular - US business segment as a result of acquired units at lower utilization rates. The average portable storage unit utilization rate during the three months ended September 30, 2018 was 68.0%, as compared to 69.8% during the same period in 2017. The decrease in average portable storage utilization rate was driven by organic declines in the number of portable storage average units on rent in the Modular - US segment.

Gross Profit: Our gross profit percentage was 37.0% and 35.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Our gross profit percentage, excluding the effects of depreciation, was 53.0% and 52.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Gross profit increased $39.6 million, or 95.9%, to $80.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from $41.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The increase in gross profit is a result of a $52.0 million increase in modular leasing and services gross profit and increased new unit and rental unit gross profit of $4.1 million. Increases in modular leasing and services gross profit were primarily as a result of increased revenues due to additional units on rent as a result of recent acquisitions as well as increased margins due to favorable average monthly rental rates on modular space units. These increases were partially offset by increased depreciation of $16.5 million as a result of additional rental equipment acquired as part of the Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace acquisitions, as well as continued capital investment in our existing rental equipment.

Selling, General and Administrative: Selling, general and administrative expense (“SG&A”) increased $35.8 million, or 99.2%, to $71.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $36.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017. $13.9 million of the SG&A increase was driven by discrete items including increased transaction costs of $5.4 million related to the ModSpace acquisition and increased integration costs of $7.5 million related to the Acton and ModSpace integrations. Additionally, stock compensation expense increased $1.1 million due to grants of stock options, restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to certain employees in the first quarter of 2018. The remaining increases of $21.9 million are primarily related to $2.4 million of public company costs including outside professional fees, and increased headcount, occupancy, and other SG&A cost increases as a result of operating a larger operation as a result of our recent acquisitions and our expanded employee base and branch network. Cost synergies of approximately $2.4 million related to the Acton and Tyson acquisitions were realized during the quarter and our integration plans remain on track. Effective November 1, 2018, our combined sales organization began writing all new contracts (including those associated with legacy ModSpace assets) from WillScot's operating and information technology platform. Exit activities for redundant branch locations, such as preparing units and materials for transport to other locations remain on schedule. These activities are expected to continue through 2019 and we expect additional cost savings as we execute the established integration plans for Acton and ModSpace. These increases were partially offset by a reduction of $7.6 million in corporate & other related to Algeco Group costs no longer included in our operations.

39

Other Depreciation and Amortization: Other depreciation and amortization increased $1.8 million, or 94.7%, to $3.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017.  The increase was driven primarily by depreciation on property, plant and equipment acquired as part of the Acton and ModSpace acquisitions in the first and third quarters, respectively.

Restructuring Costs: Restructuring costs were $6.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The 2018 restructuring charges relate primarily to employee termination and lease breakage costs related to the Acton and ModSpace acquisitions and integrations. The 2017 restructuring charges relate primarily to the Algeco Group corporate function and consist of employee termination costs.

Currency Losses (Gains), net: Currency losses (gains), net decreased by $3.9 million to a $0.4 million gain for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to a $4.3 million gain for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The decrease in currency losses (gains) was primarily attributable to the impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes on loans and borrowings and intercompany receivables and payables denominated in a currency other than the subsidiaries’ functional currency. The majority of the intercompany receivables and payables contributing to these gains and losses were settled concurrently with the Carve-Out Transaction and Business Combination in November 2017.

Other (Income) Expense, Net: Other (income) expense, net was $0.6 million of other income for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and $1.0 million of other expense for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The increase in other income was driven by the receipt of a settlement which contributed $0.8 million to other (income) expense, net, for the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Interest Expense: Interest expense increased $13.3 million, or 44.2%, to $43.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from $30.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017. Upon consummation of the Business Combination in November 2017, we issued $300.0 million of 7.875% senior secured notes (the “2022 Secured Notes”) and entered into a new $600.0 million ABL Facility to fund our operations as a stand-alone company. In the third quarter of 2018, as part of financing the ModSpace acquisition, we upsized our ABL Facility to $1.425 billion, issued $300.0 million related to the 2023 Secured Notes, and issued $200.0 million related to the Unsecured Notes. In connection with the ModSpace acquisition, the Company incurred bridge financing fees and upfront commitment fees of $20.5 million in the third quarter, which are not expected to reoccur.

The majority of the interest costs incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2017 relate to the previous debt structure of the Company as part of the Algeco Group. The increase in interest expense is driven by our recent debt issuances including the $20.5 million of bridge financing fees and upfront commitment fees. See Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our debt, and the additional debt incurred during the third quarter as part of financing the ModSpace acquisition.

Interest Income: Interest income related to the interest earned on the principal balance of notes due from affiliates, which were settled upon consummation of the Business Combination in November 2017.

Income Tax Benefit: Income tax benefit decreased $1.1 million to $6.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $7.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The decrease in income tax benefit was mainly due to a lower statutory income tax rate in the US partially offset by discrete tax benefits recorded at September 30, 2018 as compared to September 30, 2017.

Comparison of Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018 and 2017

Revenue: Total revenue increased $168.4 million, or 51.7%, to $494.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from $325.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The increase was primarily the result of a 56.4% increase in leasing and services revenue driven by improved pricing and volumes. Average modular space monthly rental rates increased 4.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, and average modular space units on rent increased 20,047 units, or 49.3%. Improved pricing was driven by a combination of our price optimization tools and processes, as well as by continued growth in our “Ready to Work” solutions and increased VAPS penetration across our customer base, offset partially by the average modular space monthly rental rates on acquired units for Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace. Improved volumes were driven by units acquired as part of the Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace acquisitions and organic unit on rent growth, as well as increased modular delivery and installation revenues on the combined rental fleet of 56.8%. The increase in leasing and services revenues was further complemented by an increase of $9.1 million, or 37.1% in new unit sales as compared to the same period in 2017 primarily driven by a single large sale project in the third quarter within the US. These increases were partially offset by a reduction in rental unit sales of $1.4 million, or 8.1% in rental unit sales as compared to the same period in 2017.

On a pro-forma basis, including results of WillScot, Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace for all periods presented, total revenues increased $67.3 million, or 9.1%, year-over-year for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Increases were driven by core leasing and services revenues as a result a of a 10.6% increase in average modular space monthly rental rates and a 0.7% increase in average modular space units of rent, and due to increased new sales.

Total average units on rent for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 were 75,079 and 53,279, respectively. The increase was due to units acquired as part of the Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace acquisitions and organic improvements in modular space average units on rent, with modular space average units on rent increased by 20,047 units, or 49.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Modular space average monthly rental rates increased 4.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Portable storage average units on rent increasing by 1,753 units, or 13.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Average portable storage monthly rental rates increased 7.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The average modular space unit utilization rate during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was 70.1%, as compared to 69.8% during the same period in 2017. The increase in average modular space utilization rate was driven by improvement in the modular space average units on rent in the Modular - Other North America business segment. The average portable storage unit utilization rate during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was 68.3%, as compared to 71.4% during the same period in 2017. The decrease in average portable storage utilization rate was driven by organic declines in the number of portable storage average units on rent in the Modular - US segment.

Gross Profit: Our gross profit percentage was 38.8% and 36.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Our gross profit percentage, excluding the effects of depreciation, was 55.0% and 53.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Gross profit increased $67.7 million, or 57.0%, to $186.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from $118.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The increase in gross profit is a result of a $95.3 million increase in modular leasing gross profit and increased new unit and rental unit gross profit of $2.0 million. Increases in modular leasing and services gross profit were primarily as a result of increased revenues due to additional units on rent as a result of recent acquisitions as well as increased margins due to favorable average monthly rental rates on modular space units. These increases were partially offset by increased depreciation of $29.6 million as a result of additional rental equipment acquired as part of the Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace acquisitions, as well as continued capital investment in our existing rental equipment.

Selling, General and Administrative: SG&A expenses increased $64.3 million, or 64.0%, to $164.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $100.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. $25.8 million of the SG&A expenses increase was driven by discrete items including increased transaction costs of $8.7 million related to the ModSpace acquisition and increased integration costs of $14.9 million related to the Acton and ModSpace integrations. Additionally, stock compensation expense increased by $2.2 million due to grants of stock options, RSAs and RSUs to certain employees in the first quarter of 2018. The remaining increases of $38.5 million are primarily related to $8.6 million of increased public company costs including outside professional fees, and increased headcount, occupancy, and other SG&A cost increases as a result of operating a larger operation as a result of our recent acquisitions and our expanded employee base and branch network. We estimate cost synergies of approximately $3.9 million related to the Acton and Tyson acquisitions have been realized year to date as of the third quarter and our integration plans remain on track. Effective November 1, 2018, we began delivering all units acquired from ModSpace under a combined operating and information technology platform. Exit activities for redundant branch locations, such as preparing units and materials for transport to other locations remain on schedule. These activities are expected to continue through 2019 and we expect additional cost savings as we execute the established integration plans for Acton and ModSpace. These increases were partially offset by a reduction of $15.7 million in corporate & other related to Algeco Group costs no longer included in our operations. 

Other Depreciation and Amortization: Other depreciation and amortization increased $2.0 million, or 35.1%, to $7.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $5.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The increase was driven primarily by depreciation on property, plant and equipment acquired as part of the Acton

42

and ModSpace acquisitions in the first and third quarters, respectively.

Restructuring Costs: Restructuring costs were $7.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to $2.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The 2018 restructuring charges relate primarily to employee termination and lease breakage costs related to the Acton and ModSpace acquisitions and integrations. The 2017 restructuring charges relate primarily to the Algeco Group corporate function and consist of employee termination costs.

Currency Losses (Gains), net: Currency losses (gains), net decreased by $14.0 million to a $1.2 million loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to a $12.8 million gain for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The decrease in currency losses (gains) was primarily attributable to the impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes on loans and borrowings and intercompany receivables and payables denominated in a currency other than the subsidiaries’ functional currency. The majority of the intercompany receivables and payables contributing to these gains and losses were settled concurrently with the Carve-Out Transaction and Business Combination.

Other (Income) Expense, net: Other (income) expense, net was $5.0 million of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and $1.6 million of other expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The decrease in other (income) expense was driven by income from insurance proceeds related to assets damaged during Hurricane Harvey which contributed $4.8 million to other (income) expense, net, for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Interest Expense: Interest expense decreased $17.4 million, or 20.5%, to $67.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from $84.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Upon consummation of the Business Combination in November 2017, we issued the 2022 Secured Notes and entered into the ABL Facility to fund our operations as a stand-alone company. In the third quarter as part of financing the ModSpace acquisition, we upsized our ABL Facility to $1.425 billion, issued the 2023 Secured Notes, and issued the Unsecured Notes. In connection with the ModSpace acquisition, the Company incurred bridge financing fees and upfront commitment fees of $20.5 million in the third quarter, which are not expected to reoccur.

The majority of the interest costs incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 relate to the previous debt structure of the Company as part of the Algeco Group. The decrease in interest expense is driven by our lower average debt balance in 2018 under our new debt structure as compared to the Algeco Group debt structure in place in 2017, partially offset by bridge financing and upfront commitment fees of $20.5 million incurred in connection with the ModSpace acquisition. See Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our debt, and the additional debt incurred during the third quarter as part of financing the ModSpace acquisition, which we expect will increase our interest expense in future periods.

Interest Income: Interest income decreased $9.8 million, or 100.0%, to zero for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from $9.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. This decrease is due to the decrease in the principal balance of notes due from affiliates, which were settled upon consummation of the Business Combination in November 2017.

Income Tax Benefit: Income tax benefit decreased $4.2 million to $13.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $17.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The decrease in income tax benefit was mainly due to a lower statutory income tax rate in the US partially offset by discrete tax benefits recorded at September 30, 2018 as compared to September 30, 2017.

Business Segment Results

Our principal line of business is modular leasing and sales. The Company formerly operated a Remote Accommodations Business, which was considered a single reportable segment. The Remote Accommodations Business was transferred to another entity included in the Algeco Group in connection with the Business Combination in November 2017 and is no longer a part of our business. Modular leasing and sales comprises two reportable segments: Modular - US and Modular - Other North America. The Modular - US reportable segment includes the contiguous 48 states and Hawaii, and the Modular - Other North America reportable segment includes Alaska, Canada and Mexico. The Acton and Tyson acquisitions are both included in the Modular - US segment, and ModSpace is included in both Modular segments as ModSpace operated in the United States and Canada. Corporate and other represents primarily SG&A related to the Algeco Group’s corporate costs, which were not incurred by WillScot in 2018. 

The following tables and discussion summarize our reportable segment financial information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. Future changes to our organizational structure may result in changes to the segments disclosed.

Modular - US Segment

Revenue: Total revenue increased $93.9 million, or 90.5%, to $197.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from $103.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017. Modular leasing revenue increased $61.4 million, or 92.2%, driven by improved pricing and volumes. Average modular space monthly rental rates increased 3.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2018, and average modular space units on rent increased 31,795 units, or 87.9%. Improved pricing was driven by a combination of our price optimization tools and processes, as well as by continued growth in our “Ready to Work” solutions and increased VAPS penetration across our customer base, offset partially by the average modular space monthly rental rates on acquired units. Improved volumes were driven by units acquired as part of the Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace acquisitions, as well as increased modular delivery and installation revenues on the combined rental fleet of 89.1%. The increases in leasing and services revenue were complemented by increases in sales revenues. New unit sales revenue increased $10.1 million, or 111.0% and rental unit sales revenue increased $2.7 million, or 45.8%. The increase year-over-year in new sales was primarily driven by a single large sale project. Increases in rental unit sales was primarily a result of the ModSpace acquisition and our larger post-acquisition fleet size.

On a pro-forma basis, including results of the WillScot, Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace for all periods presented, pricing improvement continued in the third quarter, with increases in pro-forma average modular space monthly rental rates of $65, or 13.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Modular space units on rent increased 0.1% on a pro-forma basis to 86,953 and pro-forma utilization for our modular space units increased to 74.9%, up 320 bps from 71.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2017.

Gross Profit: Gross profit increased $35.2 million, or 93.1%, to $73.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from $37.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The increase in gross profit was driven by higher modular leasing and service revenues driven both by organic growth and through the Acton, Tyson and ModSpace acquisitions. The increase in gross profit from modular leasing and sales revenues was partially offset by an $16.0 million increase in depreciation of rental equipment primarily related to acquired units in the Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace acquisitions for the three months ended September 30, 2018.

44

Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA increased $29.2 million, or 100.0%, to $58.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from $29.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The increase was driven by higher modular leasing and services gross profits discussed above, partially offset by increases in SG&A, excluding discrete items, of $15.5 million, of which $2.4 million represents public company costs including outside professional fees. The majority of the remaining increase was driven by increased headcount, occupancy, and other SG&A cost increases as a result of operating a larger operation as a result of our recent acquisitions and our expanded employee base and branch network.

Capital Expenditures for Rental Equipment: Capital expenditures increased $18.9 million, or 78.4%, to $43.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from $24.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017. Net capital expenditures also increased $16.2 million, or 89.0%, to $34.4 million. The increases for both were driven by increased spend for refurbishments, new fleet, and VAPS to drive revenue growth and for maintenance of a larger fleet following our Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace acquisitions.

Modular - Other North America Segment

Revenue: Total revenue increased $8.6 million, or 67.7%, to $21.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from $12.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017. Modular leasing revenue increased $4.8 million, or 53.9%, driven by improved pricing and volumes in the quarter. Average modular space monthly rental rates increased 9.5% and average modular space units on rent increased by 2,154 units, or 40.8% for the period, resulting in a higher modular space utilization which increased by 320 bps. Improved pricing was driven by a combination of our price optimization tools and processes, as well as by continued growth in our “Ready to Work” solutions and increased VAPS penetration across our customer base, further lifted by the average modular space monthly rental rates on acquired ModSpace units in Canada. Improved volumes were driven by units acquired as part of the ModSpace acquisition. Modular delivery and installation revenues increased $2.4 million, or 96.0%, new unit sales revenue increased $1.2 million, or 240.0%, and rental unit sales revenue increased $0.2 million, or 25.0%, all of which were primarily driven by the ModSpace acquisition.

On a pro-forma basis, including results of the WillScot and ModSpace for all periods presented, pricing improvement continued in the third quarter, with increases in pro-forma average modular space monthly rental rates of $5, or 0.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Modular space units on rent decreased 3.6% on a pro-forma basis however, to 9,607 and pro-forma utilization for our modular space units decreased to 56.8%, down 110 bps from 57.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2017. 

Gross Profit: Gross profit increased $4.2 million, or 113.5%, to $7.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from $3.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The effects of favorable foreign currency movements increased gross profit by $0.2 million related to changes in the Canadian dollar and Mexican peso in relation to the US dollar. The increase in gross profit, excluding the effects of foreign currency, was driven primarily by increased leasing and services revenues. Higher modular volumes and pricing were complemented by higher modular delivery and installation margins. These were slightly offset by increased depreciation of rental equipment of $0.5 million for three months ended September 30, 2018.

Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA increased $3.2 million, or 106.7%, to $6.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from $3.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017. This increase was driven by increased leasing and services gross profit as a result of increased modular space volumes and average monthly rental rates, partially offset by increased SG&A of $1.7 million, also driven by the ModSpace acquisition.

Capital Expenditures for Rental Equipment: Capital expenditures increased $2.3 million, or 164.3%, to $3.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017. Net capital expenditures also increased $2.1 million, or 350.0%, to $2.7 million. The increases for both were driven by increased spend for refurbishments, new fleet, and VAPS to drive revenue growth and for maintenance of a larger fleet following the ModSpace acquisitions.

Corporate and Other

Gross Profit: The Corporate and other adjustments to revenue and gross profit pertain to the elimination of intercompany leasing transactions between the business segments.

Adjusted EBITDA: Corporate and other costs and eliminations to consolidated Adjusted EBITDA were a loss of $2.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to no costs for the three months ended September 30, 2018. In 2017, Corporate and other represented primarily SG&A costs related to the Algeco Group’s corporate costs, which were not incurred by the Company in 2018.

Revenue: Total revenue increased $155.2 million, or 53.6%, to $444.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from $289.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Modular leasing revenue increased $114.2 million, or 59.3%, driven by improved pricing and volumes. Average modular space monthly rental rates increased 4.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, and average modular space units on rent increased 18,913 units, or 53.0%. Improved pricing was driven by a combination of our price optimization tools and processes, as well as by continued growth in our “Ready to Work” solutions and increased VAPS penetration across our customer base, offset partially by the average modular space monthly rental rates on acquired units. Improved volumes were driven by units acquired as part of the Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace acquisitions and organic unit on rent growth, as well as increased modular delivery and installation revenues on the combined rental fleet of 54.0%. The increases in leasing and services revenue were further complemented by increases in sales revenues. New unit sales revenue increased $8.6 million, or 39.8% and rental unit sales revenue decreased slightly by $0.3 million, or 2.1%. The increase year-over-year in new sales was primarily driven by a single large sale project in the third quarter.

On a pro-forma basis, including results of the WillScot, Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace for all periods presented, pricing improvement continued in the third quarter, with increases in pro-forma average modular space monthly rental rates of $56, or 11.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Modular space units on rent increased 787 units, or 0.9% on a pro-forma basis to 85,867 and pro-forma utilization for our modular space units increased to 74.7%, up 380 bps from 70.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Gross Profit: Gross profit increased $62.0 million, or 57.7%, to $169.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from $107.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The increase in gross profit was driven by higher modular leasing and service revenues driven both by organic growth and through the Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace acquisitions. The increases in gross profit from modular leasing and service revenues were partially offset by a $28.6 million increase in depreciation of rental equipment for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 as a result of continued capital investment in our fleet, including additional depreciation related to the Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace acquisitions.

46

Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA increased $49.9 million, or 63.0%, to $129.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from $79.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The increase was driven by higher modular leasing and services gross profits discussed above, as well as a gain recognized from the receipt of insurance proceeds related to assets damaged during Hurricane Harvey of $4.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. These increases were partially offset by increases in SG&A, excluding discrete items, of $24.7 million, of which $8.6 million represents public company costs including outside professional fees. The majority of the remaining increase was driven by increased headcount, occupancy, and other SG&A cost increases as a result of operating a larger operation as a result of our recent acquisitions and our expanded employee base and branch network.

Capital Expenditures for Rental Equipment: Capital expenditures increased $32.4 million, or 44.9%, to $104.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from $72.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Net capital expenditures increased $27.0 million, or 47.0%, to $84.5 million. The increases for both were driven by increased spend for refurbishments, new fleet, and VAPS to drive modular space unit on rent and revenue growth, and maintenance of a larger fleet following our recent acquisitions.

Modular - Other North America Segment

Revenue: Total revenue increased $12.8 million, or 34.8%, to $49.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from $36.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Modular leasing revenue increased $8.2 million, or 32.7%, driven by improved pricing and volumes. Average modular space monthly rental rates increased 6.8% and average modular space units on rent increased by 1,134 units, or 22.6% for the period driven by organic unit on rent growth as well as due to the ModSpace acquisition in the third quarter. Both of these resulted in a higher modular space utilization which increased by 600 bps. Modular delivery and installation revenues increased $5.2 million, or 85.2%, due primarily to a large camp installation during the second quarter and due to increased deliveries and returns as a result of the ModSpace acquisition. New unit sales revenue increased $0.5 million, or 17.2% and rental unit sales revenue decreased $1.1 million, or 40.7% associated with decreased sale opportunities.

On a pro-forma basis, including results of the WillScot and ModSpace for all periods presented, pricing improvement continued, with increases in pro-forma average modular space monthly rental rates of $4, or 0.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, however, pro-forma average modular space units on rent decreased 151 units, or 1.6%. Pro-forma utilization for our modular space units was essentially flat in the period at 56.6%.

Gross Profit: Gross profit increased $5.2 million, or 44.1%, to $17.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from $11.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.The effects of favorable foreign currency movements increased gross profit by $0.5million related to changes in the Canadian dollar and Mexican peso in relation to the US dollar. The increase in gross profit, excluding the effects of foreign currency, was driven primarily by higher leasing and services gross profits partially offset by lower rental unit sales as well as increased depreciation of rental equipment of $1.0 million, or 10.9%.

Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA increased $4.3 million, or 50.0%, to $12.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from $8.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. This increase was driven by improved leasing and services gross profit, partially offset by increased SG&A of $2.2 million, or 17.7%.

Capital Expenditures for Rental Equipment: Capital expenditures increased $3.3 million, or 89.2%, to $7.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from $3.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Net capital expenditures increased $4.4 million to $5.4 million. The increases for both were driven primarily by investments in refurbishments of existing lease fleet and VAPS. A reduction in rental unit sales drove the remaining increase to net capital expenditures.

Corporate and Other

Gross Profit: The Corporate and other adjustments to revenue and gross profit pertain to the elimination of intercompany leasing transactions between the business segments.

Adjusted EBITDA: Corporate and other costs and eliminations to consolidated Adjusted EBITDA were a loss of $10.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to no costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. In 2017, Corporate and other represented primarily SG&A costs related to the Algeco Group’s corporate costs, which were not incurred by the Company in 2018.

Other Non-GAAP Financial Data and Reconciliations

We use certain non-GAAP financial information that we believe is important for purposes of comparison to prior periods and development of future projections and earnings growth prospects. This information is also used by management to measure the profitability of our ongoing operations and analyze our business performance and trends.

We evaluate business segment performance on Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure that excludes certain items as described in the reconciliation of our consolidated net loss to Adjusted EBITDA reconciliation below. We believe that evaluating segment performance excluding such items is meaningful because it provides insight with respect to intrinsic operating results of the Company.

We also regularly evaluate gross profit by segment to assist in the assessment of the operational performance of each operating segment. We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be the more important metric because it more fully captures the business performance of the segments, inclusive of indirect costs.

Adjusted EBITDA

We define EBITDA as net income (loss) plus interest (income) expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization. Our Adjusted EBITDA reflects the following further adjustments to EBITDA to exclude certain non-cash items and the effect of what we consider transactions or events not related to our core business operations:

• Currency (gains) losses, net: on monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies other than the subsidiaries’ functional currency. Substantially all such currency gains (losses) are unrealized and attributable to financings due to and from affiliated companies.

• Goodwill and other impairment charges related to non-cash costs associated with impairment charges to goodwill, other intangibles, rental fleet and property, plant and equipment.

• Restructuring costs associated with restructuring plans designed to streamline operations and reduce costs including employee and lease termination costs.

• Costs to integrate acquired companies, including outside professional fees, fleet relocation expenses, employee training costs, and other costs.

• Non-cash charges for stock compensation plans.

• Other expense includes consulting expenses related to certain one-time projects, financing costs not classified as interest expense and gains and losses on disposals of property, plant, and equipment.

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider the measure in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss), cash flow from operations or other methods of analyzing WillScot’s results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements, for our working capital needs;

• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our indebtedness;

• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes;

• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact on earnings or changes resulting from matters that we consider not to be indicative of our future operations;

• although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and

• other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Adjusted EBITDA

Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as discretionary cash available to reinvest in the growth of our business or as measures of cash that will be available to meet our obligations. The following table provides an unaudited reconciliation of Net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA:

Adjusted Gross Profit

We define Adjusted Gross Profit as gross profit plus depreciation on rental equipment. Adjusted Gross Profit is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to gross profit or other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our measurement of Adjusted Gross Profit may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Management believes that the presentation of Adjusted Gross Profit provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations because it assists in analyzing the performance of our business.

Net Capex for Rental Equipment

We define Net Capital Expenditures for Rental Equipment as capital expenditures for purchases and capitalized refurbishments of rental equipment, reduced by proceeds from the sale of rental equipment. Our management believes that the presentation of Net Capital Expenditures for Rental Equipment provides useful information to investors regarding the net capital invested into our rental fleet each year to assist in analyzing the performance of our business.

Adjusted EBITDA less Net CAPEX

We define Adjusted EBITDA less Net CAPEX as Adjusted EBITDA less the gross profit on sale of rental units, less Net Capital Expenditures. Adjusted EBITDA less Net CAPEX is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our measurement of Adjusted EBITDA less Net CAPEX may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Our management believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA less Net CAPEX provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations because it assists in analyzing the performance of our business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

WillScot is a holding company that derives all of its operating cash flow from its operating subsidiaries. Our principal sources of liquidity include cash generated by operating activities from our subsidiaries, credit facilities and sales of equity and debt securities. We believe that our liquidity sources and operating cash flows are sufficient to address our future operating, debt service and capital requirements.

We may from time to time seek to retire or purchase our warrants through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity securities, in open market purchases, privately-negotiated transactions, exchange offers or otherwise. Any such transactions will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors.

ABL Facility 

On November 29, 2017, WS Holdings, WSII and certain of its subsidiaries entered into the ABL Facility with an aggregate principal amount of up to $600.0 million.

54

In July and August 2018, the Company entered into three amendments (the "ABL Amendments") to the ABL Facility that, among other things, (i) permitted the ModSpace acquisition and the Company’s financing thereof, (ii) increased the ABL Facility limit to $1.425 billion in the aggregate, with an accordion feature allowing up to $1.8 billion of capacity, and (iii) increased certain thresholds, basket sizes and default and notice triggers to account for the Company’s increased scale following the ModSpace Acquisition.

Borrowings under the ABL Facility, at the Borrower’s option, bear interest at either an adjusted LIBOR or a base rate, in each case, plus an applicable margin. At inception of the ABL Facility until March 31, 2018, the applicable margin was fixed at 2.50% for LIBOR borrowings and 1.50% for base rate borrowings. Commencing on March 31, 2018, the applicable margins are subject to one step-down of 0.25% or one step-up of 0.25%, based on excess availability levels with respect to the ABL Facility. The ABL Facility requires the payment of an annual commitment fee on the unused available borrowings of between 0.375% and 0.5% per annum. At September 30, 2018, the weighted average interest rate for borrowings under the ABL Facility was 4.65%.

The ABL Facility requires the Borrowers to maintain a (i) minimum interest coverage ratio of 2.00:1.00 and (ii) maximum total net leverage ratio of 5.50:1.00, in each case, at any time when the excess availability under the amended ABL Facility is less than the greater of (a) $135.0 million and (b) an amount equal to 10% of the Line Cap.

At September 30, 2018, the Borrowers had $552.9 million of available borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility, including $414.5 million under the US ABL Facility and $138.4 million under the Canadian ABL Facility.

2022 Senior Secured Notes 

On November, 29, 2017, WSII issued the 2022 Secured Notes with a $300.0 million aggregate principal amount that bear interest at 7.875% and mature on December 15, 2022. The net proceeds, along with other funding obtained in connection with the Business Combination, were used to repay $669.5 million outstanding under WSII’s former credit facility, to repay $226.3 million of notes due to affiliates and related accrued interest, and to pay $125.7 million of the cash consideration paid for 100% of the outstanding equity of WSII. Interest on the 2022 Secured Notes is payable semi-annually on June 15 and December 15 beginning June 15, 2018.

2023 Senior Secured Notes

On August 6, 2018, a special purpose subsidiary of WSII completed a private offering of $300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its 6.875% senior secured notes due August 15, 2023. The issuer entered into an indenture dated August 6, 2018 with Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee, which governs the terms of the 2023 Secured Notes. In connection with the ModSpace acquisition, the issuer merged with and into WSII and WSII assumed the 2023 Secured Notes. Interest is payable semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning February 15, 2019. The net proceeds were used to fund the ModSpace acquisition.

2023 Senior Unsecured Notes

On August 3, 2018, a special purpose subsidiary of WSII completed a private offering of $200.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its senior unsecured notes due November 15, 2023 (the “Unsecured Notes”). The issuer entered into an indenture with Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee (the “Unsecured Notes Indenture”), which governs the terms and conditions of the Unsecured Notes. In connection with the ModSpace acquisition, the issuer merged with and into WSII and WSII assumed the Unsecured Notes.

The Unsecured Notes bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum if paid in cash (or if paid in kind, 11.5% per annum) for any interest period ending on or before February 15, 2021, and thereafter are payable solely in cash at an increased rate per annum of 12.5%. Interest is payable semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning February 15, 2019. The net proceeds were used to fund the ModSpace acquisition.

Cash Flow Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 

The following summarizes our cash flows for the periods presented on an actual currency basis:

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in thousands)	2018		2017
Net cash from operating activities	$	15,580	$	46,901
Net cash from investing activities	(1,176,468)		(134,235)
Net cash from financing activities	1,161,406		91,677
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents	68		311
Net change in cash and cash equivalents	$	586	$	4,654

The cash flow data for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 includes the activity of the Remote Accommodations Business, which is no longer a part of the company following the Carve-out Transaction, and is presented as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

55

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $15.6 million as compared to $46.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, a decrease of $31.3 million. The reduction in cash provided by operating activities was predominantly due to higher use of cash to pay down accounts payable and accrued liabilities associated both to transaction expenses incurred for the Business Combination as well as normal operating liabilities. Additionally, the cash flow from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 include cash generated from the Remote Accommodations Business which is no longer a part of the Company following the Carve-out Transaction that occurred in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Cash flows from investing activities

Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $1,176.5 million as compared to $134.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $1,042.3 million. The increase in cash used in investing activities was principally the result of the acquisitions of Tyson and ModSpace for cash consideration of $24.0 million and $1,060.1 million during 2018. Additionally, cash used for rental equipment expenditures increased $29.2 million driven primarily by strategic investment in refurbishment of existing fleet, purchase of VAPS, and new fleet purchases to maintain and grow units on rent. The increase in cash used was partially offset by a $69.9 million decrease in cash used in lending to affiliates. In 2018, we did not engage in any lending activities as the notes due from affiliates were settled as part of the Business Combination.

Cash flows from financing activities

Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $1,161.4 million as compared to $91.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $1,069.7 million. The increase is primarily driven by the increased borrowings of $300.0 million, $200.0 million, and $579.1 million related to issuance of the 2023 Secured Notes, the issuance of the Unsecured Notes, and additional borrowings on the up-sized ABL Facility to finance the acquisition of ModSpace in the third quarter of 2018. We also received proceeds from the issuance of the Company's Class A common stock of $147.2 million during the third quarter of 2018. 

The increase in cash provided by financing activities was partially offset by $75.0 million decrease in borrowings from notes due to affiliates and a $24.2 million increase in the payment of financing costs. The notes due from affiliates were settled in connection with the Business Combination in the fourth quarter of 2017 and were driven by a centralized cash management strategy utilized by the Algeco Group. Payments of financing costs increased in connection with the issuance of the 2023 Secured Notes, the Unsecured Notes, the amendments to the ABL Facility, and the issuance of common stock.

Contractual Obligations

Since the issuance of our 2017 Form 10-K, our contractual obligations increased significantly for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. Our contractual obligations have increased in conjunction with the financing transactions related to the ModSpace acquisition. In addition to the existing debt at the acquisition date, the Company incurred $300.0 million of debt for the 2023 Secured Notes, $200.0 million of debt for the Unsecured Notes, and an increase in the ABL balance of $579.1 million as of the date of the ModSpace acquisition, August 15, 2018.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and capital resources is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. GAAP requires that we make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base these estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we consider reasonable under the circumstances, and reevaluate our estimates and judgments as appropriate. The actual results experienced by us may differ materially and adversely from our estimates.

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 of the audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2017 Form 10-K. The US Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) suggests companies provide additional disclosure on those accounting policies considered most critical. The SEC considers an accounting policy to be critical if it is important to our financial condition and results of operations and requires significant judgments and estimates on the part of management in its application. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we have provided an additional disclosure on

56

our stock-based compensation policies as described in Note 12 of this Form 10-Q and regarding our goodwill policy and estimates below. For a complete discussion of our critical accounting policies, see the “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” section of the MD&A in our 2017 Form 10-K.

Goodwill

We perform our annual goodwill impairment test on October 1. In addition, we perform qualitative impairment tests during any reporting period in which events or changes in circumstances quantitatively indicate that impairment may have occurred. Management judgment is a significant factor in the goodwill impairment evaluation process. The computations require management to make estimates and assumptions. Actual values may differ significantly from these assumptions, particularly if there are significant adverse changes in the operating environment of our reporting units.

In assessing the fair value of reporting units, we consider the market approach, the income approach, or a combination of both. Under the market approach, the fair value of the reporting unit is based on quoted market prices of companies comparable to the reporting unit being valued. While the market prices are not an assumption, a presumption that they provide an indicator of the value of the reporting unit is inherent in the valuation. The initial determination of the comparable companies also involves a degree of judgment.

Under the income approach, the fair value of the reporting unit is based on the present value of estimated cash flows. The income approach relies on the timing and estimates of future cash flows, which are based on management’s estimates of economic and market conditions over the projected period, including growth rates in revenue, operating margins, capital expenditures and tax rates. The cash flows are based on our most recent business operating plans and various growth rates have been assumed for years beyond the current business plan period. The income approach also relies upon the selection of an appropriate discount rate, which is based on a weighted-average cost of capital analysis. The discount rate is affected by changes in short-term interest rates and long-term yield, as well as by variances in the typical capital structure of marketplace participants. Given current economic conditions, it is possible that the discount rate will fluctuate in the near term.

On August 15, 2018 the Company completed its acquisition of ModSpace. The Company has performed a preliminary allocation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as well an allocation of net assets, including goodwill, amongst its reporting units. As of September 30, 2018 the Company has allocated $203.3 million and $32.5 million of goodwill to the US and Canadian reporting units, respectively. For the quarter ended September 30, 2018 the Company completed its interim review for impairment indicators for all reporting units, identifying no events or changes in circumstances that indicate an impairment may have occurred. The Company will perform its annual goodwill impairment test on October 1, 2018. While no indicators of impairment are currently present, due to Company’s historical impairment activity associated with its Canadian reporting unit, it is possible that the annual impairment test may indicate a need to write down the preliminary goodwill balance allocated to the Canadian reporting unit.

We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

There have been no significant changes to our market risk since December 31, 2017. For a discussion of our exposure to market risk, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2018. Based upon their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2018, due to the existence of previously reported material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.

Notwithstanding a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting, our management concluded that our condensed consolidated financial statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of the dates, and for the periods presented, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Description of Material Weakness as of December 31, 2017

As disclosed in further detail in “Part II - Item 9A - Controls and Procedures” of the 2017 Annual Report, we and our independent registered public accounting firm identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting - specifically, ineffective controls over accounting for income taxes and reverse acquisition accounting. These control deficiencies resulted in numerous adjustments and disclosures that were corrected prior to the issuance of our 2017 financial statements.

Remediation Plans

During our third quarter ended September 30, 2018, we continued to implement a remediation plan that addresses the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting through the following actions:

• Increased involvement on a quarterly basis of our third-party consultants dedicated to determining the appropriate accounting for material and complex tax and unique business transactions;

• Review of the tax accounting process to identify and implement enhanced processes and related internal control review procedures; and

• Adding additional review controls to approve complex accounting and related calculations.

58

Under the direction of the Audit Committee, management will continue to review and make necessary changes to the overall design of the Company’s internal control environment, as well as policies and procedures to improve the overall effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting.

We believe the measures described above will remediate the control deficiencies identified and will strengthen our internal control over financial reporting. As management continues to evaluate and work to improve internal control over financial reporting, we may take additional measures to address control deficiencies or determine to modify, or in appropriate circumstances not to complete, certain of the remediation measures described above. These controls must be in place and operating effectively for a sufficient period of time in order to validate the full remediation of the material weaknesses. We expect that the remediation of the material weaknesses will be complete as of December 31, 2018.

Changes in Internal Controls

As discussed in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the Company completed its acquisitions in December 2017, January 2018 and August 2018, respectively. During the first and second quarters of 2018, we transitioned all of the business processes of Tyson and Acton, respectively, onto our existing platforms. We are continuing to integrate Acton and Tyson into our existing control procedures, but we do not expect changes to significantly affect our internal control over financial reporting. As permitted by interpretive guidance for newly acquired businesses issued by the SEC Staff, management has excluded the internal control over financial reporting of ModSpace from the evaluation of the Company's effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2018. Since the date of acquisition on August 15, 2018, ModSpace's financial results are included in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements and constituted approximately $1.3 billion and $1.2 billion of total and net assets, respectively, as of September 30, 2018, and $65.5 million and $4.2 million of net revenues and net income, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2018. As part of our post-closing integration activities, we are engaged in the process of assessing the internal controls of ModSpace. The Company has begun to integrate policies, processes, people, technology and operations for the post-acquisition combined company, and it will continue to evaluate the impact of any related changes to internal control over financial reporting.

Other than the items discussed above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our quarter ended September 30, 2018 that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

59

PART II

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

We are involved in various lawsuits, claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. These matters involve, among other things, disputes with vendors or customers, personnel and employment matters, and personal injury.

As of September 30, 2018, there were no material pending legal proceedings in which we or any of our subsidiaries are a party or to which any of our property is subject.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

As of September 30, 2018, there have been no material updates to our risk factors since those described in our Risk Factor in our Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2018 as filed with the SEC.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization and Nature of Operations

WillScot Corporation (“WillScot” and, together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), is a leading provider of modular space and portable storage solutions in the United States (“US”), Canada and Mexico. The Company leases, sells, delivers and installs mobile offices, modular buildings and storage products through an integrated network of branch locations that spans North America.

WillScot, whose Class A common shares are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (Nasdaq: WSC), serves as the holding company for the Williams Scotsman family of companies. All of the Company’s assets and operations are owned through Williams Scotsman Holdings Corp. (“WS Holdings”). WillScot operates and owns 91.0% of WS Holdings, and Sapphire Holding S.à r.l. (“Sapphire”), an affiliate of TDR Capital LLP (“TDR Capital”), owns the remaining 9.0%.

WillScot was incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempt company under the name, Double Eagle Acquisition Corporation ("Double Eagle"), on June 26, 2015. Prior to November 29, 2017, Double Eagle was a Nasdaq-listed special purpose acquisition company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination. On November 29, 2017, Double Eagle indirectly acquired Williams Scotsman International, Inc. (“WSII”) from Algeco Scotsman Global S.à r.l., (together with its subsidiaries, the “Algeco Group”), which is majority owned by an investment fund managed by TDR Capital. As part of the transaction (the “Business Combination”), Double Eagle domesticated to Delaware and changed its name to WillScot Corporation. Additional information about the Business Combination and the Company's operations prior thereto is contained in the consolidated financial statements and notes included in WillScot's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the US (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented.

The results of consolidated operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes included in WillScot's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of WillScot and its subsidiaries that it controls due to ownership of a majority voting interest. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Company obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date when such control ceases. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the Company. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated. The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. Although WillScot was the indirect acquirer of WSII for legal purposes, WSII was considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes.

As a result of WSII being the accounting acquirer, the financial reports filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by the Company subsequent to the Business Combination are prepared “as if” WSII is the predecessor and legal successor to the Company. The historical operations of WSII are deemed to be those of the Company. Thus, the financial statements included in this report reflect (i) the historical operating results of WSII prior to the Business Combination; (ii) the combined results of WillScot and WSII following the Business Combination on November 29, 2017; (iii) the assets and liabilities of WSII at their historical cost; and (iv) WillScot's equity structure for all periods presented. The recapitalization of the number of shares of common stock attributable to the purchase of WSII in connection with the Business Combination is reflected retroactively to the earliest period presented and is utilized for calculating earnings per share in all prior periods presented. No step-up basis of intangible assets or goodwill was recorded in the Business Combination transaction consistent with the treatment of the transaction as a reverse capitalization of WSII. WSII’s remote accommodations business, which consisted of Target Logistics Management LLC (“Target Logistics”) and its subsidiaries and Chard Camp Catering Services (“Chard,” and together with Target Logistics, the “Remote Accommodations Business”), was transferred to members of the Algeco Group on November 28, 2017 in a transaction under common control and was not included as part of the Business Combination. The operating results of the Remote Accommodations Business, net of tax, for the three and nine

months ended September 30, 2017 have been reported as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards

The Company qualifies as an emerging growth company (“EGC”) as defined under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”). Using exemptions provided under the JOBS Act provided to EGCs, the Company has elected to defer compliance with new or revised financial accounting standards until a company that is not an issuer (as defined under section 2(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002) is required to comply with such standards. As such, compliance dates included below pertain to non-issuers, and as permitted, early adoption dates for non-issuers are indicated.

Subject to limited exception, WillScot will cease to be EGC on the earlier (i) the last day of the fiscal year in which WillScot’s annual gross revenues exceed $1.07 billion, (ii) the date on which the Company issues more than $1.0 billion in nonconvertible debt securities during the preceding three-year period, and (iii) the date on which WillScot is deemed to be a large accelerated filer under the SEC’s rules. Based on the recent ModSpace (defined below) acquisition described in Note 2, WillScot anticipates that its 2019 annual gross revenues will exceed $1.07 billion. WillScot also anticipates that, due in part to the amount of Class A common stock issued by WillScot to fund the ModSpace acquisition, WillScot will be deemed to be a large accelerated filer at December 31, 2019 based on the value of its Class A common stock held by non-affiliates at June 30, 2019. WillScot currently foresees remaining an EGC until December 31, 2019, but would lose EGC eligibility immediately if it were to issue additional debt and exceed the debt issuance criteria described above.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which prescribes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in the accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The new guidance will supersede virtually all existing revenue guidance under GAAP and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption for non-public entities is permitted starting with annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The core principle contemplated by this new standard was that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount reflecting the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. New disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers are also required. In April and May 2016, the FASB also issued clarifying updates to the new standard specifically to address certain core principles including the identification of performance obligations, licensing guidance, the assessment of the collectability criterion, the presentation of taxes collected from customers, non-cash considerations, contract modifications and completed contracts at transition.

The Company is currently finalizing its evaluation of the impact that the updated guidance will have on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures. As part of the evaluation process, the Company continues to hold regular meetings with key stakeholders from across the organization to discuss the impact of the standard on its existing contracts. The Company plans to adopt Topic 606 using the modified retrospective transition approach.

The Company is utilizing a bottom-up approach to analyze the impact of the standard on its portfolio of contracts by reviewing the Company’s current accounting policies and practices to identify potential differences that would result from applying the requirements of the new standard to the Company’s existing revenue contracts.

As part of its implementation project, the Company has prepared analyses with respect to revenue stream scoping, performed contract reviews of a representative sample of customer arrangements, developed a gap analysis and evaluated the revised disclosure requirements. The two primary lines of business impacted by the adoption are new and used sales transactions and modular leasing services transactions. The Company has substantially completed its procedures based on the new and used sales and modular leasing service transactions that occurred through the second quarter of 2018 and is not aware of any significant changes based on the work performed to date. The Company has incorporated the recently acquired Modular Space Holdings, Inc. (“ModSpace”) into the project during the third quarter of 2018. As described in Note 2, ModSpace was acquired in August 2018 and the Company has commenced workshops with key stakeholders, detailed contract reviews and a financial statement disclosure gap evaluation specific to revenue streams acquired through the acquisition.

After finalizing its procedures during the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company will conclude on the level of impact that the adoption of ASC 606 will have on the consolidated financial statements, including financial statement disclosures. Specific to disclosures, the Company expects to provide additional detail regarding the disaggregation of revenue and contract balances. The Company is required to adopt the standard as of January 1, 2019 and plans to first present financial statements that reflect the adoption in the first quarter of 2019.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This guidance revises existing practice related to accounting for leases under ASC Topic 840, Leases (“ASC 840”) for both lessees and lessors. The new guidance requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for virtually all of their leases (other than leases that meet the definition of a short-term lease). The lease liability will be equal to the present value of lease payments and the right-of-use asset will be based on the lease liability, subject to adjustment such as for initial direct costs. For income statement purposes,

the new standard retains a dual model similar to ASC 840, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Operating leases will result in straight-line expense (similar to current accounting by lessees for operating leases under ASC 840) while finance leases will result in a front-loaded expense pattern (similar to current accounting by lessees for capital leases under ASC 840). While the new standard maintains similar accounting for lessors as under ASC 840, the new standard reflects updates to, among other things, align with certain changes to the lessee model. 

The new standard is effective for non-public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. However, based on WillScot's expectation that it will cease to be an EGC as of December 31, 2019, the Company plans to adopt the new standard in the fourth quarter of 2019. Adoption of the new standard could be required earlier in 2019 if WillScot loses EGC eligibility earlier than anticipated based on other criteria.

The guidance includes a number of practical expedients that the Company is evaluating and may elect to apply. The adoption of the new standard will require the Company to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities that will be significant to our consolidated balance sheet. The Company will continue to evaluate the impacts of this guidance on its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The Company plans to update its systems, processes and internal controls to meet the new reporting and disclosure requirements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date.

During December 2017, shortly after the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) was enacted, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“SAB 118”) which provides guidance on accounting for the Tax Act’s impact. SAB 118 provides a measurement period, which in no case should extend beyond one year from the Tax Act enactment date, during which a company acting in good faith may complete the accounting for the impacts of the Tax Act under ASC Topic 740. Per SAB 118, companies must reflect the income tax effects of the Tax Act in the reporting period in which the accounting under ASC Topic 740 is complete. To the extent the accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act is incomplete, companies can determine a reasonable estimate for those effects and record a provisional estimate in the financial statements in the first reporting period in which a reasonable estimate can be determined. If a company cannot determine a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements, it should continue to apply ASC 740 based on the provisions of the tax laws that were in effect immediately prior to the Tax Act being enacted. If a company is unable to provide a reasonable estimate of the impacts of the Tax Act in a reporting period, a provisional amount must be recorded in the first reporting period in which a reasonable estimate can be determined. As a result of the Tax Act, in 2017, the Company remeasured its net deferred tax liabilities and recognized a provisional net benefit of $28.1 million. In addition, based on information currently available, the Company recorded a provisional income tax expense of $2.4 million in 2017 related to the deemed repatriation of foreign earnings. The Company recorded a minor adjustment in 2018 to the provisional amounts recorded in its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 (see Note 9) and continues to evaluate the provisions of the Tax Act including guidance from the Department of Treasury and Internal Revenue Service. Additionally, the Company filed its US tax return for 2017 during the fourth quarter of 2018 and any changes to the estimates used to the final tax positions for temporary differences, earnings and profits will result in adjustments of the remeasurement amounts for the Tax Act recorded as of December 31, 2017.

The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the Global Low Taxed Intangible Income (“GILTI”) provision of the Tax Act. The Company is required to make an accounting policy election of either (1) treating GILTI as a current period expense when incurred or (2) factoring such amounts into the Company’s measurement of its deferred taxes. The Company has not completed its analysis and has not made a determination of its accounting policy for GILTI.

Acquisitions

Tyson Acquisition

On January 3, 2018, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Onsite Space LLC (d/b/a Tyson Onsite (“Tyson”)). Tyson provided modular space rental services in the Midwest, primarily in Indiana, Illinois and Missouri. The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred consisted of $24.0 million in cash consideration, net of cash acquired. The transaction was funded by borrowings under the ABL Facility (defined in Note 7).

Through September 30, 2018, the Company has recorded adjustments to the Tyson opening balance sheet, which increased rental equipment and accrued liabilities by $0.9 million and $0.1 million, respectively and decreased property, plant and equipment by $0.1 million. The offset of these adjustments was recorded to goodwill as detailed in Note 6. Increases or decreases in the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired may impact the Company’s statements of operations in future periods. The Company expects that the preliminary values assigned to the rental fleet, property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, deferred tax assets and other accrued tax liabilities will be finalized during the fourth quarter of 2018. 

Tyson results were immaterial to the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and as a result, the Company is not presenting pro-forma information. 

Acton Acquisition

On December 20, 2017, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding ownership interests of Acton Mobile Holdings LLC (“Acton”) for a cash purchase price of $237.1 million, subject to certain adjustments. Acton owns all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of New Acton Mobile Industries, which provides modular space and portable storage rental services across the US. The acquisition was funded by cash on hand and borrowings under the ABL Facility.

Through September 30, 2018, the Company recorded adjustments to the Acton opening balance sheet, which increased accrued liabilities, deferred revenue, deferred tax assets and receivables by $0.8 million, $0.6 million, $0.8 million, and $2.4 million, respectively, and decreased rental equipment by $2.1 million. The offset of these adjustments was recorded to goodwill as detailed in Note 6. As a result of the timing of the transaction, the purchase price allocation for the rental equipment, intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, deferred tax assets, receivables, and other accrued liabilities acquired and assumed are based on preliminary valuations and are subject to change as the Company obtains additional information during the acquisition measurement period. Increases or decreases in the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired may impact the Company’s statements of operations in future periods. The Company expects that the preliminary values assigned to the rental equipment, intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, deferred tax assets, non-indemnified liabilities, and other accrued tax liabilities will be finalized during the fourth quarter of 2018.

Pro-forma results are presented in aggregate with the ModSpace acquisition below.

ModSpace Acquisition

On August 15, 2018 (the "Closing Date"), the Company acquired ModSpace, a privately-owned provider of office trailers, portable storage units and modular buildings. The acquisition was consummated by merging a special purpose subsidiary of the Company with and into ModSpace, with ModSpace surviving the merger as a subsidiary of WSII. The Company acquired ModSpace to create long-term shareholder value driven by, among other things, economies of scale, cost synergies and revenue opportunities unique to a combination of WillScot's and ModSpace's operations, and other benefits associated with being an industry-leading specialty rental services provider.

The aggregate purchase price for ModSpace was $1.2 billion and consisted of (i) $1.1 billion in cash, (ii) 6,458,229 shares of WillScot's Class A common stock (the "Stock Consideration") with a fair market value of $95.8 million and (iii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of WillScot’s Class A common stock at an exercise price of $15.50 per share (the "ModSpace Warrants") with a fair market value of $52.3 million, and (iv) a working capital adjustment of $5.7 million. Of the cash consideration, $3.0 million was deposited into an escrow account to fund any post-closing adjustments from differences between the estimated working capital and the actual working capital of ModSpace at closing. The final working capital of ModSpace at closing is still being evaluated by the Company and the sellers' representative in accordance with the terms of the purchase agreement. The acquisition was funded by the net proceeds of WillScot's issuance of 9,200,000 shares of Class A common stock (see Note 8), the net proceeds of WSII’s issuance of $300.0 million in senior secured notes and $200.0 million in senior unsecured notes (see Note 7), and borrowings under the ABL Facility (see Note 7).

The purchase price has been determined to be as follows:

Purchase Price 

(in thousands, except for per share amounts)	Price
Cash	$	1,054,416
Stock consideration (a)	95,796
ModSpace warrants (b)	52,310
Working capital adjustment (c)	5,724
Total purchase price	$	1,208,246
(a) The fair market value of the 6,458,229 shares issued as consideration was determined using the closing price on August 15, 2018, of $15.78 per share less a discount of 6.0%, based on a lock up agreement executed in connection with the acquisition of ModSpace.
(b) Warrants were valued assuming a fair market value of $5.23 as estimated using a Black-Scholes valuation model as of August 15, 2018.
(c) The estimated working capital adjustment as of the Closing Date was $5.7 million. The working capital amount is subject to post-close adjustments.

The acquisition date fair value of the stock consideration was estimated using a Black-Scholes valuation model. The estimated fair value of the shares are a level 3 fair value measurement. The fair value of each share is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: expected dividend yield, expected stock price volatility, weighted-average risk-free interest rate and average expected term of the lock up period on the shares. The volatility assumption used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model is derived from the historical daily change in the market price of the Company's common stock, as well as the historical daily changes in the market price of its peer group, based on weighting, as determined by the Company. The risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes model is based on the implied US

Treasury bill yield curve at the date of grant with a remaining term equal to the Company’s expected term assumption. The Company has never declared or paid a cash dividend on common shares.

Expected Volatility	28.6	%
Risk-free rate of interest	2.2	%
Dividend Yield	—	%
Expected life (years)	0.5

The acquisition date fair value of the warrants was estimated using a Black-Scholes valuation model. The estimated fair value of the warrants is a level 3 fair value measurement. The fair value of each warrant is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: expected dividend yield, expected stock price volatility, weighted-average risk-free interest rate and weighted-average expected term of the warrants. The volatility assumption used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model is derived from the historical daily change in the market price of the Company's common stock, as well as the historical daily changes in the market price of its peer group, based on weighting, as determined by the Company. The risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes model is based on the implied US Treasury bill yield curve at the date of grant with a remaining term equal to the Company’s expected term assumption. The Company has never declared or paid a cash dividend on common shares.

The following table summarizes the preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date, August 15, 2018. The Company’s estimated fair value of ModSpace’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date are determined based on preliminary valuations and analyses. Accordingly, the Company has made provisional estimates for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The valuation of intangible assets acquired is based on certain valuation assumptions yet to be finalized, including cash flow projections, discount rates, contributory asset charges and other valuation model inputs. The valuation of tangible long-lived assets acquired is dependent upon, among other things, refinement of the inputs in the valuation model and an analysis of the condition and estimated remaining useful lives of the assets acquired. In addition to finalizing the valuation of acquired assets, the Company is analyzing complex provisions of tax law regarding treatment of tax attributes upon ModSpace's March 2017 emergence from bankruptcy, implications of the Tax Act as well as scheduling the reversal of deferred tax balances thereof. The Company expects its analysis to be substantially complete by the close of the fourth quarter. Due to the provisional nature of the aforementioned items, the Company has not changed its judgment about the realizability of its pre-existing deferred tax assets as a result of the business combination. The provisional amounts reflected are subject to further adjustment, which may affect the fair values ascribed to goodwill, acquired intangible and tangible assets and the related deferred tax balances. Substantial completion of the requisite analyses may result in changes to acquired deferred tax liabilities which thereby may also affect the Company’s judgment about the realizability of its pre-existing deferred tax assets for which any reductions in the valuation allowance will be reflected separate from the business combination as discrete adjustments to income tax expense (benefit) in the period in which it is determined.

ABL Facilities

Former Algeco Group Revolver

Prior to the Business Combination, WSII depended on the Algeco Group for financing, which centrally managed all treasury and cash management. In October 2012, the Algeco Group entered into a multi-currency asset-based revolving credit facility (the “Algeco Group Revolver”), which had a maximum aggregate availability of the equivalent of $1.355 billion. The maximum borrowing availability to WSII in US dollars and Canadian dollars (“CAD”) was $760.0 million and $175.0 million, respectively.

Interest expense of $8.7 million and $23.2 million related to the Algeco Group Revolver was included in interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017.

ABL Facility

On November 29, 2017, WS Holdings, WSII and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an ABL credit agreement (the “ABL Facility”) that provided a senior secured revolving credit facility in the initial aggregate principal amount of up to $600.0 million. The ABL Facility matures on May 29, 2022.

In July and August 2018, the Company entered into three amendments (the "ABL Amendments") to the ABL Facility that, among other things, (i) permitted the ModSpace acquisition and the Company’s financing thereof, (ii) increased the ABL Facility limit to $1.425 billion in the aggregate, with an accordion feature allowing up to $1.8 billion of capacity, and (iii) increased certain thresholds, basket sizes and default and notice triggers to account for the Company’s increased scale following the ModSpace acquisition.

After giving effect to the ABL Amendments, the ABL Facility, which matures on May 29, 2022, consists of (i) a $1.285 billion asset-backed revolving credit facility (the “US ABL Facility”) for WSII and certain of its domestic subsidiaries (the “US Borrowers”), (ii) a $140.0 million asset-based revolving credit facility (the “Canadian ABL Facility”) for certain Canadian subsidiaries of WSII (the “Canadian Borrowers,” and together with the US Borrowers, the “Borrowers”), and (iii) an accordion feature that permits the Borrowers to increase the lenders’ commitments in an aggregate amount not to exceed $375.0 million, subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, plus any voluntary prepayments that are accompanied by permanent commitment reductions under the ABL Facility.

Borrowings under the ABL Facility, at the Borrower’s option, bear interest at an adjusted LIBOR or base rate, in each case plus an applicable margin. At inception of the ABL Facility until March 31, 2018, the applicable margin was fixed at 2.50% for LIBOR borrowings and 1.50% for base rate borrowings. Commencing on March 31, 2018, the applicable margins are subject to one step-down of 0.25% or one step-up of 0.25%, based on excess availability levels with respect to the ABL Facility. The ABL Facility requires the payment of an annual commitment fee on the unused available borrowings of between 0.375% and 0.5% per annum. At September 30, 2018, the weighted average interest rate for borrowings under the ABL Facility was 4.65%.

Borrowing availability under the US ABL Facility and the Canadian ABL Facility is equal to the lesser of (i) with respect to US Borrowers, $1.285 billion and the US Borrowing Base (defined below) (the “US Line Cap”), and (ii) with respect to the Canadian Borrower, $140.0 million and the Canadian Borrowing Base (defined below) (the “Canadian Line Cap,” together with the US Line Cap, the “Line Cap”).

The US Borrowing Base is, at any time of determination, an amount (net of reserves) equal to the sum of:

◦ 85% of the net book value of the US Borrowers’ eligible accounts receivable, plus

◦ the lesser of (i) 95% of the net book value of the US Borrowers’ eligible rental equipment and (ii) 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of the US Borrowers’ eligible rental equipment, minus

◦ customary reserves.

The Canadian Borrowing Base is, at any time of determination, an amount (net of reserves) equal to the sum of:

◦ 85% of the net book value of the Canadian Borrowers’ eligible accounts receivable, plus

◦ the lesser of (i) 95% of the net book value of the Canadian Borrowers’ eligible rental equipment and (ii) 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of the Canadian Borrowers’ eligible rental equipment, plus

◦ portions of the US Borrowing Base that have been allocated to the Canadian Borrowing Base, minus

◦ customary reserves.

At September 30, 2018, the Line Cap was $1.425 billion and the Borrowers had $552.9 million of available borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility, including $414.5 million under the US ABL Facility and $138.4 million under the Canadian ABL Facility. At December 31, 2017, prior to the ABL Amendments, the Line Cap was $600.0 million and the Borrowers had $281.1 million of available borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility, including $211.1 million under the US ABL Facility and $70.0 million under the Canadian ABL Facility.

Borrowing capacity under the US ABL Facility is made available for up to $75.0 million of standby letters of credit and up to $75.0 million of swingline loans, and borrowing capacity under the Canadian ABL Facility is made available for up to $60.0 million of standby letters of credit, and $50.0 million of swingline loans. Letters of credit and bank guarantees carried

fees of 2.625% at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The Company had issued $13.0 million and $8.9 million of standby letters of credit under the ABL Facility at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

The ABL Facility requires the Borrowers to maintain a (i) minimum interest coverage ratio of 2.00:1.00 and (ii) maximum total net leverage ratio of 5.50:1.00, in each case, at any time when the excess availability under the ABL Facility is less than the greater of (a) $135.0 million and (b) an amount equal to 10% of the Line Cap.

The ABL Facility also contains a number of customary negative covenants. Such covenants, among other things, may limit or restrict the ability of each of the Borrowers, their restricted subsidiaries, and where applicable, WS Holdings, to: incur additional indebtedness, issue disqualified stock and make guarantees; incur liens; engage in mergers or consolidations or fundamental changes; sell assets; pay dividends and repurchase capital stock; make investments, loans and advances, including acquisitions; amend organizational documents and master lease documents; enter into certain agreements that would restrict the ability to pay dividends or incur liens on assets; repay certain junior indebtedness; enter into sale and leaseback transactions; and change the conduct of its business.

The aforementioned restrictions are subject to certain exceptions including (i) the ability to incur additional indebtedness, liens, investments, dividends, and prepayments of junior indebtedness subject, in each case, to compliance with certain financial metrics and certain other conditions and (ii) a number of other traditional exceptions that grant the Borrowers continued flexibility to operate and develop their businesses. The ABL Facility also contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and events of default. The Company is in compliance with these covenants and restrictions as of September 30, 2018.

The Company had $859.0 million and $310.0 million in outstanding principal under the ABL Facility at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

The ABL Amendments were treated as a debt modification to the ABL Facility under ASC 470-50, Debt, Modifications and Extinguishments. All ABL Facility lenders prior to the ABL Amendments are continuing lenders after giving effect to the ABL Amendments. The Company incurred an additional $19.0 million in debt issuance costs and discounts associated with the ABL Amendments that have been deferred and will be amortized through the remaining period until the maturity date of the ABL Facility.  Debt issuance costs and discounts of $28.5 million and $12.7 million are included in the carrying value of the ABL Facility at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

Interest expense of $7.6 million and $15.8 million related to the ABL Facility was included in interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

2023 Senior Unsecured Notes

On August 3, 2018, a special purpose subsidiary of WSII completed a private offering of $200.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its senior unsecured notes due November 15, 2023 (the “Unsecured Notes”).

February 15, 2020 to February 14, 2021	104.000	%
February 15, 2021 and thereafter	106.000	%

The Unsecured Notes are unconditionally guaranteed by each Note Guarantor. These guarantees are senior, unsecured obligations of the Note Guarantors (except that the guarantee of the Unsecured Notes provided by WillScot Equipment II, LLC, which holds certain of WSII’s uncertificated assets in the United States, are subordinated to its obligations under the ABL Facility).

The Unsecured Notes contain certain negative covenants, including limitations that may restrict WSII’s ability and the ability of certain of its subsidiaries, to directly or indirectly, create additional financial obligations.

grant the US Borrowers continued flexibility to operate and develop their businesses. The Company is in compliance with these covenants and restrictions as of September 30, 2018.

The Company incurred debt issuance costs and discounts of $1.1 million in connection with the issuance of the Unsecured Notes. Debt issuance costs and discounts of $1.1 million are included in the carrying value of the Unsecured Notes at September 30, 2018. 

Bridge Financing Fees

In connection with the ModSpace acquisition, the Company incurred bridge financing fees of $20.5 million, included within interest expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. 

Capital Lease and Other Financing Obligations

The Company’s capital lease and financing obligations primarily consisted of $38.4 million and $38.5 million under sale-leaseback transactions and $0.1 million and $0.2 million of capital leases at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The Company’s capital lease and financing obligations are presented net of $1.6 million and $1.8 million of debt issuance costs at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The Company’s capital leases primarily relate to real estate, equipment and vehicles and have interest rates ranging from 1.2% to 11.9%.

The Company has entered into several arrangements in which it has sold branch locations and simultaneously leased the associated properties back from the various purchasers. Due to the terms of the lease agreements, these transactions are treated as financing arrangements. These transactions contain non-recourse financing which is a form of continuing involvement and precludes the use of sale-lease back accounting. The terms of the financing arrangements range from approximately eighteen months to ten years. The interest rates implicit in these financing arrangements is approximately 8.0%.

Notes Due To and From Affiliates

In conjunction with the Business Combination, all notes due to and from affiliates were settled, and there is no related interest expense or interest income related to the notes due to or from affiliates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Prior to the Business Combination, the Algeco Group distributed borrowings from its third party notes to entities within the Algeco Group, including WSII, through intercompany loans. WSII previously recorded these intercompany loans as notes due to affiliates with maturity dates of June 30, 2018 and October 15, 2019.

Interest expense of $16.7 million and $48.0 million associated with these notes due to affiliates is reflected in interest expense in the consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. Interest on the notes due to affiliates was payable on a semi-annual basis.

Conversely, WSII also distributed borrowings to other entities within the Algeco Group through intercompany loans, and earned interest income on the principal. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recognized $3.7 million and $9.8 million, respectively, of interest income related to the loans.

The net impact of the transactions above, resulted in a non-recurring adjustment of $21.2 million to additional paid in capital and non-controlling interest on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Despite the dilution in the non-controlling interest ownership in WS Holdings, the adjustment increases the non-controlling interest equity as a result of the significant increase in net assets from the ModSpace acquisition.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

The Company recorded an income tax benefit of approximately $6.5 million and $13.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, and $7.6 million and $17.8 million for the same periods of 2017.

The Company’s effective tax rate (“ETR”) for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 was 15.0% and 36.2%, respectively, and 23.9% and 33.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The Company’s estimated annual ETR ("EAETR") of 14.8% on the forecasted pre-tax loss is lower than the US statutory rate of 21.0% due to certain offsets to the overall tax benefit, namely: (1) a partial valuation allowance, $8.0 million tax expense, due to the limitation on the deductibility of interest expense estimated for the current year partially offset by reduction to the deferred tax liability, $2.3 million tax benefit, established for the book over tax basis difference for the Company's investment in its Canadian subsidiary and (2) a gross permanent disallowance, $6.6 million, of which $5.7 million relates to the non-deductibility of certain transaction costs in relation to the ModSpace acquisition.

The Company’s ETR for the three months ended September 30, 2018 of 15.0% is comparable to its EAETR due to minimal discrete items for the quarter of $0.6 million, which is primarily attributable to adjustments to deferred taxes for legislation enacted in certain state taxing jurisdictions during the quarter, notably, in New Jersey. 

The Company’s ETR for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 of 23.9% is higher than the EAETR due to $5.3 million of discrete tax benefit recorded year to date, of which a $4.3 million tax benefit is attributable to a reduction in our net state deferred tax liability in Maryland due to change in tax law enacted in the second quarter.

In addition, to the foregoing, the Company also recognized tax expense of $0.1 million and tax benefit of $0.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, related to foreign currency gains and losses. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recognized tax expense of $1.6 million and $4.8 million, respectively, related to foreign currency gains. The Company also adjusted the provisional amounts for the impacts of the Tax Act under SAB 118 reported in its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017. As of September 30, 2018, a $0.6 million tax benefit has been recorded in relation to tax reform guidance under SAB 118. As noted above, the Company recorded a discrete benefit of $4.3 million in the second quarter of 2018 to reduce its net state deferred tax liability primarily related to the enactment of an apportionment rule change in Maryland.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measures

Fair Value Measures

The fair value of financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The Company utilizes the suggested accounting guidance for the three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 -	Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 -	Observable inputs, other than Level 1 inputs in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 -	Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions

The Company has assessed that the fair value of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, trade payables, capital lease and other financing obligations, and other current liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

The following table shows the carrying amounts and fair values of financial assets and liabilities, including their levels in the fair value hierarchy:

	September 30, 2018								December 31, 2017
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value						Carrying Amount		Fair Value
(in thousands)			Level 1		Level 2		Level 3				Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Financial liabilities not measured at fair value
US ABL Facility (a)	$	830,573	$	—	$	857,500	$	—	$	297,323	$	—	$	310,000	$	—

(a) See Note 7 - Debt.

There were no transfers of financial instruments between the three levels of the fair value hierarchy during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. The fair value of the Company’s ABL Facility is primarily based upon observable market data such as market interest rates. The fair value of the Company’s 2022 Secured Notes, the 2023 Secured Notes and the Unsecured Notes is based on their last trading price at the end of each period obtained from a third party.

Stock-Based Compensation

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract]

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation

On November 16, 2017, the Company’s shareholders approved a long-term incentive award plan (the “Plan”). The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. Under the Plan, the Committee may grant an aggregate of 4,000,000 shares of Class A common stock in the form of non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance compensation awards and stock bonus awards. Stock-based payments including the grant of stock options, RSUs, and RSAs are subject to service-based vesting requirements, and expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Forfeitures are accounted for as they occur. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, no RSAs, RSUs or stock options were granted under the Plan. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, 27,675 RSAs, 921,730 RSUs and 589,257 stock option awards were granted under the Plan. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, 0 and 35,050 RSUs were forfeited.

Stock-based payments to employees include grants of stock options and RSUs, which are recognized in the financial statements based on their fair value.

RSUs and RSAs are valued based on the intrinsic value of the difference between the exercise price, if any, of the award and the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the grant date. RSAs vest over a one-year period and RSUs vest over a four-year period.

Stock options vest in tranches over a period of four years and expire ten years from the grant date. The fair value of each stock option award on the grant date is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: expected dividend yield, expected stock price volatility, weighted-average risk-free interest rate and weighted-average expected term of the options. The volatility assumption used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model is based on peer group volatility as the Company does not have a sufficient trading history as a stand-alone public company. Additionally, due to an insufficient history with respect to stock option activity and post-vesting cancellations, the expected term assumption is based on the simplified method under GAAP, which is based on the vesting period and contractual term for each tranche of awards. The mid-point between the weighted-average vesting term and the expiration date is used as the expected term under this method. The risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes model is based on the implied US Treasury bill yield curve at the date of grant with a remaining term equal to the Company’s expected term assumption. The Company has never declared or paid a cash dividend on common shares.

As of September 30, 2018, none of the granted RSAs, RSUs or stock options had vested.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Reporting

Segment ReportingThe Company historically has operated in two principal lines of business; modular leasing and sales and remote accommodations, which were managed separately. The Remote Accommodations Business was considered a single operating segment. As part of the Business Combination, the Remote Accommodations segment is no longer owned by the Company and is reported as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements. As such, the segment was excluded from the segment information below.

Modular leasing and sales is comprised of two operating segments: US and Other North America. The US modular operating segment (“Modular - US”) consists of the contiguous 48 states and Hawaii. The Other North America operating segment (“Modular - Other North America”) consists of Alaska, Canada and Mexico. Corporate and other includes eliminations of costs and revenue between segments and Algeco Group corporate costs not directly attributable to the underlying segments. Following the Business Combination, no additional Algeco Group corporate costs were incurred and the Company’s ongoing corporate costs are included within the Modular - US segment. Total assets for each reportable segment are not available because the Company utilizes a centralized approach to working capital management. Transactions between reportable segments are not significant.

As discussed in Note 6, the net assets acquired from ModSpace were allocated to both the Modular - US and Modular - Other North America segments. The US operations of ModSpace are included in the Modular - US segment and the Canadian operations of ModSpace are included in the Modular - Other North America segment. The operations and net assets acquired from Acton and Tyson are both included in the Modular - US segment.

The Company evaluates business segment performance on Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes certain items as shown in the reconciliation of the Company’s consolidated net loss before tax to Adjusted EBITDA below. Management believes that evaluating segment performance excluding such items is meaningful because it provides insight with respect to intrinsic operating results of the Company.

The Company also regularly evaluates gross profit by segment to assist in the assessment of its operational performance. The Company considers Adjusted EBITDA to be the more important metric because it more fully captures the business performance of the segments, inclusive of indirect costs.

Reportable Segments

The following tables set forth certain information regarding each of the Company’s reportable segments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively:

Income (Loss) Per Share

9 Months Ended

Sep. 30, 2018

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Income (Loss) Per Share

Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic income (loss) per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to WillScot by the weighted average number of its Class A common shares outstanding during the period. Concurrently with the Business Combination, 12,425,000 of WillScot's Class A common shares were placed into escrow by shareholders and became ineligible to vote or participate in the economic rewards available to the other Class A shareholders. Escrowed shares were therefore excluded from the EPS calculation while deposited in the escrow account. 6,212,500 of the escrowed shares were released to shareholders on January 19, 2018, and the remaining escrowed shares were released to shareholders on August 21, 2018.

WillScot's Class B common shares have no rights to dividends or distributions made by the Company and, in turn, are excluded from the EPS calculation.

Diluted EPS is computed similarly to basic net income (loss) per share, except that it includes the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities were exercised. Effects of potentially dilutive securities are presented only in periods in which they are dilutive. Stock options, restricted stock units and restricted stock awards, representing 589,257, 886,680 and 27,675 shares of Class A common stock outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. Warrants representing 44,750,000 shares of Class A shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Pursuant to the exchange agreement entered into by WS Holding's shareholders, Sapphire has the right, but not the obligation, to exchange all, but not less than all, of its shares of WS Holdings into newly issued shares of WillScot’s Class A common stock in a private placement transaction. The impact of this exchange has been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would have been anti-dilutive.

On August 22, 2018, WillScot’s majority stockholder, Sapphire, entered into a margin loan (the "Margin Loan ") under which all of its WillScot Class A common stock was pledged to secure $125.0 of borrowings under the loan agreement. WillScot is not a party to the loan agreement and has no obligations thereunder, but WillScot delivered an issuer agreement to the lenders under which WillScot has agreed to certain obligations relating to the shares pledged by Sapphire and, subject to applicable law and stock exchange rules, not to take any actions that are intended to materially hinder or delay the exercise of any remedies with respect to the pledged shares. In connection with the Margin Loan, on August 24, 2018, WSII entered into a two-year supply agreement with Target Logistics, an affiliate controlled by Sapphire, under which, subject to limited exception, WSII acquired the exclusive right to supply modular units, portable storage units, and other ancillary products ordered by the affiliate in the United States. WillScot's leasing revenue and rental unit sales associated with Target Logistics for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 are disclosed above. As of September 30, 2018, the 49,041,906 shares of WillScot Class A common stock pledged by Sapphire represented approximately 48.9% of WillScot’s issued and outstanding Class A shares.

The Company had capital expenditures of rental equipment purchased from related party affiliates of $1.2 million and $0.5 million for three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $3.0 million and $1.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The Company paid $0.1 million and $0.2 million in professional fees to an entity, that two of the Company’s Directors also served in the same role for that entity, during the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $1.1 million and $0.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	Subsequent Events On November 6, 2018, WSII entered into an interest rate swap transaction with a financial counterparty that effectively converts $400.0 million in aggregate notional amount of its variable-rate debt into fixed-rate debt. The fixed rate paid by WSII is 3.06% and the variable rate received resets monthly to a one-month LIBOR rate. The swap transaction, which matures on May 29, 2022, was consummated to mitigate the interest rate risk inherent in WSII’s floating-rate credit agreement, which also matures on May 29, 2022, and not for trading or speculative purposes. The master agreement that governs the interest rate swap contains customary representations, warranties and covenants and may be terminated prior to its expiration.On November 8, 2018, WillScot announced the commencement of an offer to each holder of its public and private warrants to purchase one-half share of Class A common stock, par value of $0.0001 per share, of WillScot for a purchase price of $5.75 (the “Warrants”) to receive 0.1818 common shares in exchange for each Warrant tendered by the holder and exchanged pursuant to the offer (the “Offer”). The warrants issued in connection with the Company's acquisition of ModSpace, each of which is exercisable for one share of WillScot Class A common stock at an exercise price of $15.50 per share, are not subject to the Offer. The Offer is made solely upon the terms and conditions in a Prospectus/Offer to Exchange and other related offering materials that are being distributed to holders of the Warrants. The Offer will be open until 11:59 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, on December 6, 2018, or such later time and date to which WillScot may extend.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

9 Months Ended

Sep. 30, 2018

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the US (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented.

The results of consolidated operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes included in WillScot's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of WillScot and its subsidiaries that it controls due to ownership of a majority voting interest. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Company obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date when such control ceases. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the Company. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated. The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. Although WillScot was the indirect acquirer of WSII for legal purposes, WSII was considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes.

As a result of WSII being the accounting acquirer, the financial reports filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by the Company subsequent to the Business Combination are prepared “as if” WSII is the predecessor and legal successor to the Company. The historical operations of WSII are deemed to be those of the Company. Thus, the financial statements included in this report reflect (i) the historical operating results of WSII prior to the Business Combination; (ii) the combined results of WillScot and WSII following the Business Combination on November 29, 2017; (iii) the assets and liabilities of WSII at their historical cost; and (iv) WillScot's equity structure for all periods presented. The recapitalization of the number of shares of common stock attributable to the purchase of WSII in connection with the Business Combination is reflected retroactively to the earliest period presented and is utilized for calculating earnings per share in all prior periods presented. No step-up basis of intangible assets or goodwill was recorded in the Business Combination transaction consistent with the treatment of the transaction as a reverse capitalization of WSII. WSII’s remote accommodations business, which consisted of Target Logistics Management LLC (“Target Logistics”) and its subsidiaries and Chard Camp Catering Services (“Chard,” and together with Target Logistics, the “Remote Accommodations Business”), was transferred to members of the Algeco Group on November 28, 2017 in a transaction under common control and was not included as part of the Business Combination. The operating results of the Remote Accommodations Business, net of tax, for the three and nine

months ended September 30, 2017 have been reported as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which prescribes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in the accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The new guidance will supersede virtually all existing revenue guidance under GAAP and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption for non-public entities is permitted starting with annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The core principle contemplated by this new standard was that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount reflecting the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. New disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers are also required. In April and May 2016, the FASB also issued clarifying updates to the new standard specifically to address certain core principles including the identification of performance obligations, licensing guidance, the assessment of the collectability criterion, the presentation of taxes collected from customers, non-cash considerations, contract modifications and completed contracts at transition.

The Company is currently finalizing its evaluation of the impact that the updated guidance will have on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures. As part of the evaluation process, the Company continues to hold regular meetings with key stakeholders from across the organization to discuss the impact of the standard on its existing contracts. The Company plans to adopt Topic 606 using the modified retrospective transition approach.

The Company is utilizing a bottom-up approach to analyze the impact of the standard on its portfolio of contracts by reviewing the Company’s current accounting policies and practices to identify potential differences that would result from applying the requirements of the new standard to the Company’s existing revenue contracts.

As part of its implementation project, the Company has prepared analyses with respect to revenue stream scoping, performed contract reviews of a representative sample of customer arrangements, developed a gap analysis and evaluated the revised disclosure requirements. The two primary lines of business impacted by the adoption are new and used sales transactions and modular leasing services transactions. The Company has substantially completed its procedures based on the new and used sales and modular leasing service transactions that occurred through the second quarter of 2018 and is not aware of any significant changes based on the work performed to date. The Company has incorporated the recently acquired Modular Space Holdings, Inc. (“ModSpace”) into the project during the third quarter of 2018. As described in Note 2, ModSpace was acquired in August 2018 and the Company has commenced workshops with key stakeholders, detailed contract reviews and a financial statement disclosure gap evaluation specific to revenue streams acquired through the acquisition.

After finalizing its procedures during the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company will conclude on the level of impact that the adoption of ASC 606 will have on the consolidated financial statements, including financial statement disclosures. Specific to disclosures, the Company expects to provide additional detail regarding the disaggregation of revenue and contract balances. The Company is required to adopt the standard as of January 1, 2019 and plans to first present financial statements that reflect the adoption in the first quarter of 2019.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This guidance revises existing practice related to accounting for leases under ASC Topic 840, Leases (“ASC 840”) for both lessees and lessors. The new guidance requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for virtually all of their leases (other than leases that meet the definition of a short-term lease). The lease liability will be equal to the present value of lease payments and the right-of-use asset will be based on the lease liability, subject to adjustment such as for initial direct costs. For income statement purposes,

the new standard retains a dual model similar to ASC 840, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Operating leases will result in straight-line expense (similar to current accounting by lessees for operating leases under ASC 840) while finance leases will result in a front-loaded expense pattern (similar to current accounting by lessees for capital leases under ASC 840). While the new standard maintains similar accounting for lessors as under ASC 840, the new standard reflects updates to, among other things, align with certain changes to the lessee model. 

The new standard is effective for non-public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. However, based on WillScot's expectation that it will cease to be an EGC as of December 31, 2019, the Company plans to adopt the new standard in the fourth quarter of 2019. Adoption of the new standard could be required earlier in 2019 if WillScot loses EGC eligibility earlier than anticipated based on other criteria.

The guidance includes a number of practical expedients that the Company is evaluating and may elect to apply. The adoption of the new standard will require the Company to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities that will be significant to our consolidated balance sheet. The Company will continue to evaluate the impacts of this guidance on its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The Company plans to update its systems, processes and internal controls to meet the new reporting and disclosure requirements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date.

During December 2017, shortly after the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) was enacted, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“SAB 118”) which provides guidance on accounting for the Tax Act’s impact. SAB 118 provides a measurement period, which in no case should extend beyond one year from the Tax Act enactment date, during which a company acting in good faith may complete the accounting for the impacts of the Tax Act under ASC Topic 740. Per SAB 118, companies must reflect the income tax effects of the Tax Act in the reporting period in which the accounting under ASC Topic 740 is complete. To the extent the accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act is incomplete, companies can determine a reasonable estimate for those effects and record a provisional estimate in the financial statements in the first reporting period in which a reasonable estimate can be determined. If a company cannot determine a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements, it should continue to apply ASC 740 based on the provisions of the tax laws that were in effect immediately prior to the Tax Act being enacted. If a company is unable to provide a reasonable estimate of the impacts of the Tax Act in a reporting period, a provisional amount must be recorded in the first reporting period in which a reasonable estimate can be determined. As a result of the Tax Act, in 2017, the Company remeasured its net deferred tax liabilities and recognized a provisional net benefit of $28.1 million. In addition, based on information currently available, the Company recorded a provisional income tax expense of $2.4 million in 2017 related to the deemed repatriation of foreign earnings. The Company recorded a minor adjustment in 2018 to the provisional amounts recorded in its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 (see Note 9) and continues to evaluate the provisions of the Tax Act including guidance from the Department of Treasury and Internal Revenue Service. Additionally, the Company filed its US tax return for 2017 during the fourth quarter of 2018 and any changes to the estimates used to the final tax positions for temporary differences, earnings and profits will result in adjustments of the remeasurement amounts for the Tax Act recorded as of December 31, 2017.

The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the Global Low Taxed Intangible Income (“GILTI”) provision of the Tax Act. The Company is required to make an accounting policy election of either (1) treating GILTI as a current period expense when incurred or (2) factoring such amounts into the Company’s measurement of its deferred taxes. The Company has not completed its analysis and has not made a determination of its accounting policy for GILTI.
