Smith-Midland Reports Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Record Backlog of $51.4 Million, 80 Percent Year-Over-Year Increase

MIDLAND, VA / ACCESSWIRE / November 3, 2022 / Smith-Midland Corporation (NASDAQ:SMID), a provider of innovative, high-quality proprietary and patented precast concrete products and systems today announced its results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.

Third Quarter 2022 Summary (Compared to Prior-Year Quarter)

  • Backlog increased 80 percent to $51.4 million, a record for the Company
  • Royalty revenue increased 23% to $833,000
  • Easi-Set building revenue increased 168% to $1,523,000
  • Total revenue of $12.0 million, compared to $13.1 million
  • Product sales of $7.1 million, compared to $7.2 million

Additional Items Subsequent to the Quarter

  • Awarded $8.6 million contract (included in reported backlog) to produce precast concrete soundwall, columns, and J-J Hooks concrete barrier for a project with the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT)
  • Completed successful crash test for low-profile barriers for use in the Texas and Florida markets

"Our third quarter results reflect the continued resilience of our team, the value of our proprietary products, and the favorable ongoing macroeconomic trends across our industry. Regulatory drivers and greater infrastructure spending following the passage of last year's infrastructure bill should continue to expand our pool of long-term opportunities for all of our products," said Ashley B. Smith, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We anticipate higher production volumes for the fourth quarter and into the first quarter of 2023 as we expect the drawing delays experienced throughout this year to be resolved in the near future. Additionally, a new project for our SlenderWall product, that started production at the end of the third quarter, will continue during fourth quarter."

"We continue to make strategic investments in our business, including the 325,000 linear feet of barrier we announced last May, which more than doubles our rental fleet. This investment remains on schedule, and we expect the purchase to be completed by the end of year. We are also investing in new potential recurring revenue streams such as the low-profile barrier. We recently completed a successful crash test of our low-profile barriers to be deployed in the Texas and Florida markets. Lastly, we recently signed the largest contract in the history of our North Carolina facility. Through investments, new products, and expanded markets, the Company continues to be a leader within the industry."

"The 80 percent increase in our year-over-year backlog of $51.4 million reflects the efforts of our sales team and recession-resilient nature of our business, which will benefit from the upcoming infusion of spending from last year's infrastructure bill. Overall, we remain excited about the opportunities available to us and our ability to deliver long-term value to our shareholders," Mr. Smith concluded.

Third Quarter 2022 Results

The Company reported 2022 third quarter revenues of $12.0 million compared to $13.1 million in the third quarter of 2021. Operating income for the third quarter of 2022 was $4,000 compared to $1.3 million in the third quarter of 2021. Net income for the quarter was $5,000, or breakeven on a diluted share basis, compared to net income of $3.7 million, or $0.71 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2021. The prior-year's results include a $2.7 million gain, or $0.52 per diluted share, related to the forgiveness of the Company's Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan by the Federal government.

Product Sales

Total product sales for the third quarter of 2022 were $7.1 million compared to $7.2 million in the prior-year quarter. Sales related to the Company's soundwalls were impacted by temporary delays related to customer drawing approvals and timing of new projects within the quarter. Sales for Easi-Set buildings more than doubled compared to the prior-year quarter. SlenderWall sales are expected to trend higher for the fourth quarter of 2022 due to a new project started at the end of the third quarter.

Service Revenue

Service revenue, which is comprised of royalty income, barrier rental revenue, and shipping and installation, totaled $4.9 million for the third quarter of 2022 compared to $5.9 million in the year-ago quarter. Barrier rental revenue decreased compared to the prior-year quarter due to short-term special projects that occurred in the third quarter of 2021 that did not reoccur in the current year.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

As of September 30, 2022, Smith-Midland's cash totaled $10.8 million compared to $13.5 million as of December 31, 2021. Account receivables were approximately $13.2 million and debt totaled $6.6 million. Capital spending for the quarter was $1.8 million compared to $0.3 million in the third quarter of 2021.

Macro Environment and Outlook

Smith-Midland and all of its competitors continue to face many macroeconomic challenges including labor shortages, inflationary and raw material cost increase, and supply chain disruptions. Demand for barrier rentals remains strong, and the fleet will more than double by the end of the year at the originally announced cost of approximately $5.0 million. The Company continues to secure meaningful contracts, including the recently announced $8.6 million contract with the NCDOT. Management believes the Company's business is more resilient through recessionary pressures thanks to spending related to the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act that will begin to take effect over the coming months, its diverse end markets, growing licensee network and innovative patented, proprietary, and customized products. Backlog was approximately $51.4 million recorded as of October, 2022, compared to approximately $28.5 million a year ago and 35% higher than the previous record backlog in the first quarter of 2018. Management will continue to execute against the Company's long-term growth strategy focusing on continuously enhancing shareholder value.
