"Our materials-led portfolio delivered another resilient quarter of financial results, even amid significant rainfall and severe weather events that impacted many of our key markets," commented Anne Noonan, Summit Materials President and CEO. "I'm incredibly proud of our teams that responded safely and with agility to produce an Elevate-era record for EBITDA margins and take valuable steps towards achieving our strategic agenda. Today, due to volumes below prior expectations and including valuable self-help offsets, we are refining the mid-point of our full year guide to $985 million. Concurrently and thanks to strong execution, we are increasing our Adjusted EBITDA margin expectations to at least 24% in 2024. Without question, our Summit team has successfully navigated a dynamic environment to strengthen our business, improve our commercial and operational capabilities, and critically, build momentum as we focus on the fourth quarter and our path forward in 2025."

Scott Anderson, Executive Vice President and CFO of Summit Materials added, "Our capital allocation strategy is designed to unlock growth in a disciplined, returns-focused manner. With nearly $740 million in cash on hand and a capable balance sheet, Summit is well-equipped to invest in top growth prospects, both organic and inorganic, driving long-term sustainable returns for our shareholders."

2024 Guidance

For the full year 2024, Summit is refining its Adjusted EBITDA guidance to incorporate performance over the first nine months, including the impact of unfavorable weather conditions. The Company is now projecting Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $970 million to $1 billion. Summit also currently projects 2024 capital expenditures of approximately $390 million to $410 million.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. Refer to the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section for more information. Because GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis are not accessible, and reconciling information is not available without unreasonable effort, we have not provided reconciliations for forward-looking non-GAAP measures. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.

Third Quarter 2024 | Total Company Results

Net revenue increased $369.9 million, or 49.9%, in the third quarter to $1,111.8 million. In the quarter, $403.4 million of net revenue was due to acquisitions, primarily the Argos USA transaction. Divestitures decreased net revenue by $43.6 million in the period. All lines of business experienced organic pricing growth.

Operating income increased in the third quarter by 52.1% to $194.7 million largely due to the Argos USA transaction. Summit's operating margin percentage for the three months ended September 28, 2024, increased to 17.5% from 17.2%.

Net income attributable to Summit Inc. decreased to $105.2 million, or $0.60 per basic share, compared to $230.0 million, or $1.93 per basic share in the prior year period. The decrease is due primarily to the tax receivable benefit recognized in the third quarter of 2023 of $153.1 million. Summit reported adjusted diluted net income of $131.2 million, or $0.75 per adjusted diluted share, compared to an adjusted diluted net income of $97.5 million, or $0.81 per adjusted diluted share, in the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA increased $106.2 million, or 50.9%, to $314.7 million reflecting the contribution from the Argos USA assets, continued pricing gains, and operational improvements across the enterprise, including integration synergies.

Pricing growth was strong throughout the footprint and led by the East Segment, which increased 8.3% versus the prior year period.

Cement Business: Cement Segment net revenues increased to $323.2 million in the third quarter. Cement Segment adjusted cash gross profit margin increased to 47.2% in the third quarter, compared to 46.3% in the prior year period. Sales volume of cement increased 203.1% while organic sales volumes decreased 11.3% due to a combination of adverse weather conditions and moderating demand leading to, in part, lower imported volumes versus the prior year period. Organic average selling prices increased 3.9% in the third quarter, primarily reflecting increases implemented earlier in the year.

Products Business: Products net revenues were $516.4 million in the third quarter, up 48.9% versus the prior year period. Products adjusted cash gross profit margin decreased to 17.8% in the third quarter. Organic average sales price for ready-mix concrete increased 5.5%, with pricing growth in both segments. Organic sales volumes of ready-mix concrete decreased 10.0% due to unfavorable weather conditions and subdued private end-market activity. Organic average selling prices for asphalt increased 4.5%. Organic sales volume increased 0.4%, driven by growth in North Texas.

West Segment: The West Segment operating income increased $6.2 million to $95.8 million. Adjusted EBITDA increased $10.5 million, or 8.9%, to $128.4 million in the third quarter. Aggregates revenue increased 1.5%, driven by continued pricing growth. Pricing grew 6.2% over the prior period led by double-digit growth in certain Texas markets, as well as Arizona. Ready-mix concrete revenue increased 10.6% on 3.3% pricing growth and 7.1% volume growth. Organic ready-mix pricing increased 5.4%. Restrained private construction activity and weather headwinds drove organic ready-mix volumes down 10.4% in the period.

Aggregates revenue increased 9.5% versus the prior year period. Organic Aggregates volumes increased 1.1%, with the Carolinas and Missouri markets offsetting softness in Kansas. Aggregates pricing increased 8.3% with most markets realizing high single-digit or double-digit growth. Ready-mix concrete revenue increased $142.3 million to $165.4 million due to the acquisition of the Argos USA ready-mix concrete operations in Florida, Georgia, and the Carolinas. Asphalt revenue decreased $7.8 million versus the prior year period due to divestiture of asphalt assets.

Cement Segment: The Cement Segment operating income increased 142.5% to $92.8 million. Adjusted EBITDA increased $89.7 million, primarily from the Argos USA transaction.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") regulates the use of "non-GAAP financial measures," such as Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Diluted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Cash Gross Profit, Adjusted Cash Gross Profit Margin, and Free Cash Flow which are derived on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"). We have provided these measures because, among other things, we believe that they provide investors with additional information to measure our performance, evaluate our ability to service our debt and evaluate certain flexibility under our restrictive covenants. Our Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Diluted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Cash Gross Profit, Adjusted Cash Gross Profit Margin, and Free Cash Flow may vary from the use of such terms by others and should not be considered as alternatives to or more important than net income (loss), operating income (loss), revenue or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP as measures of operating performance or to cash flows as measures of liquidity.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and other non-GAAP measures have important limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of the limitations of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and other non-GAAP measures are that these measures do not reflect: (i) our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (ii) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (iii) interest expense or cash requirements necessary to service interest and principal payments on our debt; and (iv) income tax payments we are required to make. Because of these limitations, we rely primarily on our U.S. GAAP results and use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and other non-GAAP measures on a supplemental basis.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Cash Gross Profit, Adjusted Cash Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Diluted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Diluted EPS, and Free Cash Flow reflect additional ways of viewing aspects of our business that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations to U.S. GAAP financial measures included in the tables attached to this press release, may provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. We strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not rely on any single financial measure. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures used in this press release are included in the attached tables.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
