Announces Fourth Quarter New Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility with Increased Facility Size and Improved Pricing

Coral Gables, FL (November 4, 2021) — MasTec, Inc. (NYSE: MTZ) today announced third quarter 2021 financial results and updated its guidance for the remainder of 2021.

Third quarter 2021 revenue was a record $2.4 billion, compared to $1.7 billion for the prior year period, a 42% increase. Third quarter 2021 GAAP net income was $112.5 million, or $1.50 per diluted share, $0.13 above expectation.

Third quarter 2021 adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share, both non-GAAP measures, were $135.6 million and $1.81, respectively, with adjusted diluted earnings per share exceeding the Company’s previously announced expectation by $0.10. Third quarter 2021 adjusted EBITDA, also a non-GAAP measure, was $278 million, or 11.6% of revenue, $11 million above expectation.

Record third quarter 18-month backlog as of September 30, 2021 was $8.5 billion, an increase of approximately $821 million compared to the same quarter last year, with record third quarter backlog across all non-Oil & Gas segments. Sequentially, third quarter consolidated backlog decreased approximately $685 million, comprised of $767 million in expected Oil & Gas segment backlog reductions partially offset by approximately $82 million in backlog increase in non-Oil & Gas segments, as MasTec continues to expand its business mix in the communications, clean energy and electrical grid markets.

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, “End market opportunities across our non-Oil & Gas segments continue to develop and provide us significant growth opportunities as evidenced by our record non-Oil & Gas segment backlog. We remain confident that our diversified end market portfolio provides us a near term path towards reaching our $10 billion revenue goal, with strong adjusted EBITDA margin and cash flow performance.”

Mr. Mas continued, “Finally I would like to take the opportunity to thank the men and women of MasTec for their continued dedication and professionalism. The safety of our employees during these unprecedented times remains our primary focus, as we continually provide critical infrastructure services to our customers.”

George Pita, MasTec’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer noted, “Today we are also announcing a new unsecured credit facility, with a $250 million increase to $2.0 billion, improved pricing and the elimination of security requirements. I would like to thank our banking partners for their strong long-term support. During the third quarter, we continued our strong cash flow performance, reducing our net debt levels by approximately $80 million despite the working capital requirements associated with a sequential revenue increase of approximately $442 million. Our strong capital structure affords us ample financial flexibility to fund future strategic growth opportunities to maximize shareholder value.”

The Company is updating its guidance and now estimates 2021 annual revenue to approximate $8.0 billion, with 2021 annual GAAP net income and diluted earnings per share expected to approximate $332 million and $4.46, respectively. 2021 annual adjusted EBITDA is expected to approximate $930 million, and 2021 annual adjusted diluted earnings per share is expected to approximate $5.55.

For the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company expects revenue of approximately $1.9 billion. Fourth quarter 2021 GAAP net income is expected to approximate $75 million, with GAAP diluted earnings per share expected to approximate $1.01. Fourth quarter 2021 adjusted EBITDA is expected to approximate $218 million, with adjusted diluted earnings per share expected to approximate $1.33.

Senior Management will hold a conference call to discuss these results on Friday, November 5, 2021, at 9:00 a.m. Eastern time. The call-in number for the conference call is (334) 323-0501 or (800) 353-6461 and the replay number is (719) 457-0820, with a pass code of 8886034. The replay will run for 30 days.
