Previous wording

Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as further adjusted for certain charges consisting of unrelated legal and consulting fees, severance, restructuring charges, impairment charges, CEO transition costs, debt modification expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, and stock-based compensation. We use, and we believe our investors benefit from the presentation of, Adjusted EBITDA in evaluating our operating performance because it provides us and our investors with additional tools to compare our operating performance on a consistent basis by removing the impact of certain items that management believes do not directly reflect our core operations. In addition, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors and other external users of our consolidated financial statements in evaluating our operating performance as compared to that of other companies, because it allows them to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items such as interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods and book value of assets and liabilities, capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired. Our management also uses Adjusted EBITDA for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and financial projections. Management also uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our ability to make certain payments, including dividends, in compliance with our senior credit facilities, which is determined based on a calculation of “Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA” that is substantially similar to Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool. As a result, you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for net income (loss), operating income (loss), cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

Previous wording

Adjusted EBITDA at our Work Truck Attachments segment was $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to ($4.5) million in the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of $4.8 million. The change in the three months ended March 31, 2025 from the corresponding periods in 2024 was due to improved snowfall in our core markets leading to higher volumes in 2025. The most recent snow season ended March 2025 was 12% below the 10-year average, but was approximately 30% better than the prior snow season, which had snowfall 39.0% below the 10-year average.

Current wording

Adjusted EBITDA at our Work Truck Attachments segment was $31.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $35.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024, a decrease of $4.2 million. Adjusted EBITDA at our Work Truck Attachments segment was $31.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $31.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $0.6 million. The decrease in the three months ended June 30, 2025 is due to lower volumes related to the timing of preseason shipments between the second and third quarters. The increase in the six months ended June 30, 2025 from the corresponding period in 2024 was due to improved snowfall in our core markets leading to higher volumes in the first quarter of 2025. The most recent snow season ended March 2025 was 12% below the 10-year average, but was approximately 30% better than the prior snow season, which had snowfall 39.0% below the 10-year average.

The change in the three months ended March 31, 2025 was due to improved municipal volumes and price increase realization, as well as improved efficiencies.

Current wording

Previous wording

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Per Share (calculated on a diluted basis) represents net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share (as defined by GAAP), excluding the impact of stock-based compensation, severance, restructuring charges, impairment charges, CEO transition costs, debt modification expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, certain charges related to unrelated legal fees and consulting fees, and adjustments on derivatives not classified as hedges, net of their income tax impact. Adjustments on derivatives not classified as hedges are non-cash and are related to overall financial market conditions; therefore, management believes such costs are unrelated to our business and are not representative of our results. Management believes that Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Per Share are useful in assessing the Company’s financial performance by eliminating expenses and income that are not reflective of the underlying business performance. We believe that the presentation of adjusted net income (loss) for the periods presented allows investors to make meaningful comparisons of our operating performance between periods and to view our business from the same perspective as our management. Because the excluded items are not predictable or consistent, management does not consider them when evaluating our performance or when making decisions regarding allocation of resources.

Previous wording

Inflation in materials and labor had a material impact on our profitability in the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 and, although we are starting to see such inflationary pressures ease, we expect ongoing inflationary pressures and the impact of any tariffs enacted may also impact our profitability in the remainder of 2025. While we anticipate being able to cover this inflation by raising prices, there may be a timing difference of when we incur the increased costs and when we realize the higher prices in our backlog. In prior year as a result of inflationary pressures due to tariffs, we experienced significant increases in steel costs, but were able to mitigate the effects of these increases through both temporary and permanent steel surcharges; we expect, but cannot be certain, that we will be able to do the same going forward.
