Segments Results

Our two reportable segments are comprised of sites based upon the nature of the products or services produced, the type of customer for the products, the similarity of economic characteristics, the manner in which management reviews results and the nature of the production process, among other considerations.

Infrastructure Solutions - Road building equipment, asphalt and concrete plants, thermal storage solutions and related aftermarket parts.

Net sales of $236.0 million increased 16.7% as the infrastructure construction market for asphalt and concrete plants remains strong, with some softness in mobile paving and forestry.Segment Operating Adjusted EBITDA of $42.9 million increased 67.6% and Segment Operating Adjusted EBITDA margin of 18.2% increased 550 basis points.

Materials Solutions - Processing equipment to crush, screen and convey aggregates and related aftermarket parts.

Net sales of $93.4 million decreased by 12.7% primarily due to lower domestic equipment sales attributable to finance capacity constraints with contractors and dealers resulting in fewer product conversions. Dealer quoting remains active.Segment Operating Adjusted EBITDA of $5.2 million decreased 1.9% and Segment Operating Adjusted EBITDA margin of 5.6% increased 60 basis points.

Liquidity and Cash Flow

Our total liquidity was $238.9 million, consisting of $90.1 million of cash and cash equivalents available for operating purposes and $148.8 million available for additional borrowings under our revolving credit facility.Operating Cash Flow in the quarter was $20.5 million and Free Cash Flow in the quarter was $16.6 million.

First Quarter Capital Allocation

Capital expenditures of $3.9 million.Dividend payment of $0.13 per share.

Acquisition of TerraSource

Under the terms of the definitive agreement, Astec will acquire TerraSource for $245.0 million in cash, subject to a customary working capital adjustment. Based on 2024 financial information, we anticipate an adjusted EBITDA multiple of 5.9x adjusted for expected tax benefits of approximately $15 million and annual run-rate synergies of approximately $10 million expected by the end of year two. Astec intends to finance the acquisition with existing cash on hand and new committed financing. The transaction is expected to close early in the third quarter of 2025, subject to requisite regulatory approvals and satisfaction of other customary closing conditions.

Strategic and Financial Benefits:

Increases aftermarket and recurring revenue growth profile. TerraSource has a large installed base with 2024 aftermarket revenues approximating 60% of total revenue and 80% of gross profitAdds scale and expands global market presence in attractive end markets for further growth opportunitiesProvides an enhanced financial profile with accretion expected in gross profit margins, adjusted EBITDA margins and earnings per shareEnables meaningful run-rate cost synergies of approximately $10 million primarily from procurement savingsStrong cultural fit focused on innovation, sustainability and customer-centric solutions
