MasTec Announces Strong Fourth Quarter and Annual 2019 Financial Results and Issues Record 2020 Guidance

CORAL GABLES, Fla., Feb. 27, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- MasTec, Inc. (NYSE: MTZ) today announced strong 2019 fourth quarter and full year financial results and issued its initial 2020 guidance expectation.

  • Fourth quarter 2019 revenue was $1.7 billion, compared to $1.9 billion for the same period last year. GAAP net income was $100.7 million, or $1.33 per diluted share, compared to $31.8 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2018.
  • Fourth quarter 2019 adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share, both non-GAAP measures, were $98.8 million, or $1.30 per adjusted diluted share, compared to $83.1 million, or $1.07 per adjusted diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2018, a 21.5% increase per adjusted diluted share. 
  • Fourth quarter 2019 adjusted EBITDA, also a non-GAAP measure, was $210.2 million, compared to $195.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2018, a 7.4% increase. Fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA margin rate of 12.3% increased 210 basis points compared to the fourth quarter of 2018.
  • 18-month backlog as of December 31, 2019 was a record $8.0 billion, a 3.9% increase compared to $7.7 billion as of December 31, 2018.

The Company also reported:

  • For the year ended December 31, 2019, revenue was $7.2 billion, a 4.3% increase compared to $6.9 billion for the prior year. GAAP net income was $394.1 million, or $5.17 per diluted share, compared to $259.2 million, or $3.26 per diluted share in 2018.
  • Full year 2019 adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share, both non-GAAP measures, were $397.2 million or $5.21 per adjusted diluted share, compared to $300.6 million or $3.77 per adjusted diluted share during 2018, a 38.2% increase per adjusted diluted share.
  • Full year 2019 adjusted EBITDA, also a non-GAAP measure, was $843.2 million, compared to $721.0 million in 2018, a 17.0% increase. Full year 2019 adjusted EBITDA margin rate of 11.7% increased 130 basis points compared to last year.

Adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, and adjusted EBITDA, which are all non-GAAP measures, exclude certain items which are detailed and reconciled to the most comparable GAAP-reported measures in the attached Supplemental Disclosures and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Disclosures. 

Jose Mas, MasTec's Chief Executive Officer, commented, "First I would like to thank the men and women of MasTec for helping us deliver a fourth consecutive year of record financial performance. Our backlog as of December 31, 2019 of $8.0 billion gives us confidence that 2020 will be yet another record year for MasTec. Importantly, trends in our end markets support our view of continued and significant growth opportunities for MasTec in 2021 and beyond."

Mr. Mas concluded, "I am also pleased to note that our Power Generation & Industrial segment reached the milestone level of $1 billion in 2019 revenue, a $700 million increase since 2017. We expect that this segment, along with our Communications, Oil & Gas, and Electrical Transmission segments will all show continued revenue growth in 2020 and beyond."

George Pita, MasTec's Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, noted, "We continued our strong cash flow performance trend, with 2019 representing another year of record annual cash flow from operations of $550 million. We are also pleased that our strong cash flow performance and outlook were recognized by S&P Global Ratings with its recent public debt ratings upgrade. We expect to generate a new record level of cash flow from operations in 2020 and enter the new year with our balance sheet in excellent shape, with ample liquidity and comfortable leverage metrics. This capital structure enables us to take advantage of the various growth opportunities our markets afford us and to maximize shareholder value."

Based on the information available today, the Company is providing both first quarter and full year 2020 guidance. The Company currently expects full-year 2020 revenue will approximate $8.0 billion, another record level. 2020 full year GAAP net income and diluted earnings per share are expected to approximate record levels at $397 million and $5.19, respectively. Full year 2020 non-GAAP measures, including adjusted EBITDA and adjusted diluted earnings per share, represent record levels, with adjusted EBITDA expected to approximate $900 million, or 11.3% of revenue, and adjusted diluted earnings per share expected to be $5.63. As noted in the supplemental schedules of this release, effective in the first quarter of 2020, the Company will exclude the amortization of identified intangible assets for all of the Company's acquisitions in calculating adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share for all presented periods.  We believe that this adjustment is common practice due to the non-cash and non-operational nature of these purchase accounting related charges and will make our presentation more comparable to our largest public peer.

For the first quarter of 2020, the Company expects revenue of approximately $1.3 billion. First quarter 2020 GAAP net income is expected to approximate $29 million, with GAAP diluted earnings per share expected to be $0.38. First quarter 2020 adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, is expected to approximate $108 million or 8.3% of revenue, with adjusted diluted earnings per share, a non-GAAP measure, expected to be $0.48.

Management will hold a conference call to discuss these results on Friday, February 28, 2020 at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time. The call-in number for the conference call is (323) 794-2094 or (800) 263-0877 and the replay phone number is (719) 457-0820 with a pass code of 9606087. The replay will be available for 30 days. Additionally, the call will be broadcast live over the Internet and can be accessed and replayed through the Investors section of the Company's website at www.mastec.com.
