Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

Preliminary Unaudited Consolidated Financial and Other Data for the Three and Six Months Ended July 2, 2016

On July 13, 2016, Summit Materials, Inc. (the “Company”) announced preliminary unaudited consolidated financial and other information for the three and six months ended July 2, 2016. The information presented below is based upon information available to the Company as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, is not a comprehensive statement of the Company’s financial results for such periods and has not been audited or reviewed by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Company’s actual results as of and for the three and six months ended July 2, 2016 may differ materially from this preliminary data. During the course of the preparation of the Company’s financial statements and related notes to be included in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended July 2, 2016, additional adjustments to the preliminary financial information presented below may be identified. Any such adjustments may be material.

Based upon such preliminary financial results, the Company expects various key metrics as of and for the three and six months ended July 2, 2016 to be between the ranges in the following table (unaudited):

 

     Three Months Ended     Six Months Ended  
     July 2, 2016      June 27, 2015     July 2, 2016     June 27, 2015  
(in millions, except per share information)                          

Revenue

   $ 435.0 – $452.0       $ 364.9      $ 663.4 – $680.4      $ 558.9   

Net revenue

   $ 410.0 – $420.0       $ 329.0      $ 618.0 – $628.0      $ 504.1   

Cost of revenue

   $ 281.0 – $292.0       $ 249.2      $ 437.5 – $448.5      $ 407.4   

General and administrative expenses (1)

   $ 74.0 – $76.0       $ 39.7      $ 119.4 – $121.4      $ 106.9   

Operating income (loss)

   $ 42.3 – $46.1       $ 42.3      $ 12.8 – $16.6      $ (16.7

Gross profit (excludes depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion)(2)

   $ 154.0 – $160.0       $ 115.8      $ 205.5 – $211.5      $ 151.5   

Net income (loss)

   $ 18.4 – $19.7       $ 0.0      $ (24.1) – $(22.8   $ (79.8

Adjusted EBITDA (2)

   $ 110.5 – $112.0       $ 78.1      $ 118.9 – $120.4      $ 76.8   

Net income (loss) per share of Class A common stock:

         

Basic

   $ 0.19 – $0.20       $ (0.01   $ (0.17) – $(0.16   $ (0.39

Diluted

   $ 0.19 – $0.20       $ (0.01   $ (0.54) – $(0.51   $ (0.40

Adjusted (2)

   $ 0.43 – $0.44       $ 0.27      $ 0.01 – $0.02      $ (0.25

 

(1) Share-based compensation expense, which is recognized in general and administrative expenses, totaled $27.8 million and $29.8 million for the three and six months ended July 2, 2016, respectively, as compared to $1.8 million and $17.0 million for the three and six months ended June 27, 2015, respectively. Share-based compensation for the three and six months ended July 2, 2016 was affected by $24.8 million of share-based compensation expense for performance-vesting interests for which compensation expense had not previously been recognized as the achievement of certain investment returns was not yet probable. The Company anticipates that share-based compensation associated with LP Units that vest upon affiliates of The Blackstone Group L.P. (“Blackstone”) receiving a 1.75 times return on their initial invested capital will vest in full upon completion of the secondary offering of Class A common stock the Company announced on July 13, 2016. Stock options that vest upon affiliates of the Blackstone receiving a 1.75 times return on their initial invested capital also have a time-vesting component whereby the options vest over four years at a rate of 25% of the award each year of the first four anniversaries from March 11, 2015, subject to the employee’s continued employment through the applicable vesting date.


(2) The Company evaluates its operating performance using metrics it refers to as “EBITDA,” “Adjusted EBITDA,” “gross profit” and Adjusted Income (Loss) per Share (“EPS”) which are not defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company defines EBITDA as net loss before interest expense, income tax benefit and depreciation, depletion and amortization expense. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA before accretion, loss on debt financings, IPO costs, loss from discontinued operations and certain non-cash and non-operating items. The Company defines gross profit as operating income before depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion, general and administrative expenses and transaction costs. The Company defines Adjusted EPS as consolidated net income adjusted for significant non-cash or non-recurring items divided by the total number of LP Units outstanding.

The Company includes Adjusted EBITDA, gross profit and Adjusted EPS in conjunction with its results according to U.S. GAAP because management believes they provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company’s business than U.S. GAAP measures alone. Management believes these non-GAAP measures assist the Company’s board of directors, management, lenders and investors in comparing the Company’s operating performance on a consistent basis because they remove, where applicable, the effect of the Company’s capital structure, asset base, acquisition accounting, non-cash charges and non-operating items from the Company’s operations. In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA and gross profit to evaluate the Company’s operational performance as a basis for strategic planning and as a performance evaluation metric.

Despite the importance of these measures in analyzing the Company’s business, evaluating its operating performance and determining covenant compliance, as well as the use of Adjusted EBITDA and gross profit measures by securities analysts, lenders and others in their evaluation of companies, Adjusted EBITDA and gross profit have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under U.S. GAAP; nor are EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA or gross profit intended to be measures of liquidity or free cash flow for the Company’s discretionary use. Some of the limitations of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and gross profit are:

 

    they do not reflect the Company’s cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

 

    they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Company’s working capital needs;

 

    they do not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements to service interest or principal payments on the Company’s debt; and

 

    they do not reflect income tax payments the Company is required to make.

To properly and prudently evaluate the Company’s business, readers are encouraged to review the financial statements the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business. The Company also strongly urges you to review the reconciliation of net income (loss) to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, operating income (loss) to gross profit and net income (loss) per share to Adjusted EPS set forth below. The metrics presented here, may differ from and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies, because these measures are not measures of financial performance under U.S. GAAP and are susceptible to varying calculations.
