APi Group Corporation (NYSE: APG) (“APi” or the “Company”) today reported its financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Russ Becker, APi’s President and Chief Executive Officer stated: “The team’s work over the last few years executing our strategy has resulted in APi being the strongest it has ever been with 2024 shaping up to be a year of record net revenues, margins and free cash flow generation. As we plan for a return to accelerated organic growth in 2025 complemented by strong operating performance, I am proud of the team's execution of our strategy. We are well positioned to achieve our 13% plus adjusted EBITDA margin target in 2025 and set new meaningfully higher targets for the following three years which we will review during our 2025 investor day. As we shift our focus to 2025, we have great confidence in the business, our backlog, our balance sheet, and our ability to accelerate growth and expand margins to build on our already strong foundation. Our business has significant opportunities ahead and we look forward to leveraging these opportunities as we update you on our progress."

• Reported net revenue increased by 2.4% (0.2% organic decline) due to acquisitions and strong growth in inspection, service, and monitoring in the Safety Services segment, offset by divestitures in the Specialty Services segment and project delays primarily in Specialty Services.
• Reported and adjusted gross margin increased 250 and 200 basis points, respectively, compared to prior year period due to disciplined customer and project selection, improved business mix in higher margin services revenue as well as value capture initiatives in our Safety Services Segment.

Adjusted net income was $141 million and adjusted diluted EPS was $0.51, representing a 6.3% increase compared to prior year period. The increase in both net income and adjusted net income were driven by growth in adjusted EBITDA, partially offset by an increase in interest expense and adjusted diluted weighted average shares outstanding.
• Adjusted EBITDA increased by 9.4% (8.9% on a fixed currency basis) compared to the prior year period and adjusted EBITDA margin increased 80 basis points to a third quarter record of 13.4%, primarily due to the increase in gross margins, partially offset by lower fixed cost absorption.

• Reported net revenue growth of 9.7% (3.1% organic growth) driven by acquisitions completed in the last year and strong growth in inspection, service and monitoring, partially offset by a decline in project revenues predominately in the HVAC business.
• Reported and adjusted gross margin increased 240 and 170 basis points, respectively, compared to prior year period driven by disciplined project and customer selection, pricing improvements, improved business mix in higher margin services revenue as well as value capture initiatives.

• Adjusted EBITDA increased by 24.3% (23.5% on a fixed currency basis) compared to the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 15.7%, representing a 180 basis point increase compared to prior year period, primarily due to the increase in adjusted gross margins.

• Reported net revenue declined by 13.4% (7.7% organic decline) due to divestitures and a decline in project and service revenues driven by customer delays.
• Reported and adjusted gross margin each increased 40 basis points compared to prior year period due to disciplined customer and project selection driving margin improvement in project revenues and the divestitures of lower margin businesses.
• Operating income was $40 million and operating margin was 8.1%.
• Adjusted EBITDA decreased by 19.3% due to lower revenues. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 13.6%, representing a 100 basis point decrease compared to prior year period, primarily due to lower fixed cost absorption, partially offset by the increase in adjusted gross margins.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains non-U.S. GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company uses certain non-U.S. GAAP financial measures that are included in this press release and the additional financial information both in explaining its results to shareholders and the investment community and in its internal evaluation and management of its businesses. The Company’s management believes that these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures and the information they provide are useful to investors since these measures (a) permit investors to view the Company’s performance using the same tools that management uses to evaluate the Company’s past performance, reportable business segments and prospects for future performance, (b) permit investors to compare the Company with its peers, (c) in case of EBITDA, determines certain elements of management’s incentive compensation, and (d) provide consistent period-to-period comparisons of the results. Specifically:

• The Company’s management believes that adjusted gross profit, adjusted selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses, adjusted net income, and adjusted earnings per share, which are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude business transformation and other expenses for the integration of acquired businesses, the impact and results of businesses classified as assets held-for-sale and businesses divested, and one-time and other events such as impairment charges, restructuring costs, transaction and other costs related to acquisitions, amortization of intangible assets, and non-service pension cost or benefit are useful because they provide investors with a meaningful perspective on the current underlying performance of the Company’s core ongoing operations.

• The Company discloses fixed currency net revenues and adjusted EBITDA (“FFX”) on a consolidated basis or segment specific basis to provide a more complete understanding of underlying revenue and adjusted EBITDA trends by providing net revenues and adjusted EBITDA on a consistent basis. Under U.S. GAAP, income statement results are translated in U.S. Dollars at the average exchange rates for the period presented. Management believes that the fixed currency non-GAAP measures are useful in providing period-to-period comparisons of the results of the Company’s operational performance, as it excludes the translation impact of exchange rate fluctuations on our international results. Fixed currency amounts included in this release are based on translation into U.S. dollars at the fixed foreign currency exchange rates established by management at the beginning of 2024.

• The Company also presents organic changes in net revenues on a consolidated basis or segment specific basis to provide a more complete understanding of underlying revenue trends by providing net revenues on a consistent basis as it excludes the impacts of material acquisitions, completed divestitures, and changes in foreign currency from year-over-year comparisons on reported net revenues, calculated as the difference between the reported net revenues for the current period and reported net revenues for the current period converted at fixed foreign currency exchange rates (excluding material acquisitions and divestitures). The remainder is divided by prior year fixed currency net revenues, excluding the impacts of completed divestitures.

• Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) is the measure of profitability used by management to manage its segments and, accordingly, in its segment reporting. The Company supplements the reporting of its consolidated financial information with EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as EBITDA excluding the impact of certain non-cash and other specifically identified items (“adjusted EBITDA”). Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenues. The Company believes these non-U.S. GAAP measures provide meaningful information and help investors understand the Company’s financial results and assess its prospects for future performance. The Company uses EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to evaluate its performance, both internally and as compared with its peers, because it excludes certain items that may not be indicative of the Company’s core operating results. Consolidated EBITDA is calculated in a manner consistent with segment EBITDA, which is a measure of segment profitability.

• The Company presents free cash flow, adjusted free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow conversion, which are liquidity measures used by management as factors in determining the amount of cash that is available for working capital needs or other uses of cash, however, it does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures. Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as cash provided by (used in) operating activities plus or minus events including, but not limited to, transaction and other costs related to acquisitions, business transformation and other expenses for the integration of acquired businesses, payments on acquired liabilities, payments made for restructuring programs, impacts of businesses classified as assets held-for-sale and businesses divested, one-time and other events such as post-measurement period purchase accounting adjustments for acquisitions and public offerings, and COVID-19 related payroll tax deferral and relief items. Adjusted free cash flow conversion is defined as adjusted free cash flow as a percentage of adjusted EBITDA.

• The Company calculates its leverage ratio in accordance with its debt agreements which include different adjustments to EBITDA from those included in the adjusted EBITDA numbers reported externally.

While the Company believes these non-U.S. GAAP measures are useful in evaluating the Company’s performance, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for or superior to the related financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Additionally, these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures may differ from similar measures presented by other companies. A reconciliation of these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures is included later in this press release.

The Company does not provide reconciliations of forward-looking non-U.S. GAAP adjusted EBITDA and growth in organic net revenues to GAAP due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations, including adjustments that could be made for acquisitions and divestitures, business transformation and other expenses for the integration of acquired businesses, one-time and other events such as impairment charges, transaction and other costs related to acquisitions, restructuring costs, amortization of intangible assets, and other charges reflected in the Company’s reconciliation of historic numbers, the amount of which, based on historical experience, could be significant.
