Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022, was $109.6 million compared to $75.0 million for the same period in 2021. The increase in revenue was primarily driven by the Expanded Humanitarian Contract, which commenced May 16, 2022.   Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2022, was $22.9 million compared to a net loss of $0.9 million for the same period in 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA was $56.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $31.9 million for the same period in 2021, a 76% increase.  

Average utilized beds increased to 11,523 for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in utilized beds was primarily driven by higher utilization in the Hospitality and Facilities Services – South and Midwest segments.

The Company had approximately $36.9 million of capital expenditures for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in capital expenditures was primarily a result of the Expanded Humanitarian Contract, which required comprehensive infrastructure enhancements to create a highly customized campus capable of providing ongoing humanitarian support.    

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $9.7 million of cash and cash equivalents with approximately $114 million of total available liquidity and a net leverage ratio of 2.3 times.  The Company anticipates further meaningful improvement in its net leverage ratio by year end 2022.   Target's enhanced balance sheet will allow the Company to continue evaluating a range of capital allocation initiatives focused on maximizing long-term shareholder value.

Target's strategically located network of communities continues to benefit from positive momentum in customer activity, supported by strong demand fundamentals.  These elements have supported consistent increases in customer activity across Target's HFS segments, which have experienced an 18% increase in customer demand from the second quarter of 2021.  Target anticipates customer activity to continue improving throughout 2022 and is well positioned to benefit from this positive momentum across its premier network.

Additionally, Target has benefited from its deliberate actions to expand its critical hospitality service offerings to the United States Government.  As the Company announced, on July 6, 2022, it executed an Expanded Humanitarian Contract with its leading national nonprofit partner to provide comprehensive support services and highly customized infrastructure solutions for a community population of approximately 6,400 individuals.  With the execution of the Expanded Humanitarian Contract, which had an effective date of May 16, 2022, 68% of Target's second quarter of 2022 revenue was derived from its Government segment supported by committed minimum revenue contracts.    

These strong business fundamentals, and intentional focus on aligning Target's premium service offerings with world-class customers, including the United States government, has meaningfully increased long-term revenue visibility and significantly high graded contract structure.  These attributes have supported approximately 99% of the Company's anticipated 2022 revenue being contracted with approximately 75% of contracted revenue having minimum revenue commitments. 

The positive momentum and record setting results Target has experienced through 2022 are a direct reflection of Target's strategic focus to broaden its end market portfolio through high quality contracts serving premier customers.  These deliberate actions have resulted in a materially enhanced financial profile, including increased long-term revenue visibility supported by committed minimum revenue contracts.  These elements, along with Target's unmatched operating capabilities, create the optimal platform to continue pursuing a balanced portfolio of value enhancing strategic initiatives focused on expanding the Company's long-term growth opportunities.

Target's established and growing presence providing critical hospitality solutions across the government services end market creates a natural opportunity to expand its service offerings across federal agencies and geographies.  These broad reaching opportunities utilize key elements of Target's existing core competencies, including construction and facilities management, offering attractive long-term growth pipelines.

In addition, Target is actively pursuing value enhancing opportunities focused on broadening the Company's reach into adjacent end market applications.  The individual elements of Target's existing core service offerings provide unique opportunities to broaden its commercial reach into adjacent business and industry applications.  These potential growth avenues are supported by Target's strong national presence, superior operating capabilities and diverse core competencies, including building maintenance and food management.   

Target's enhanced financial profile, broad reaching, and diverse core competencies, create a unique platform to continue pursuing these highly economic growth initiatives, which it believes is the greatest opportunity to continue accelerating value creation.

This press release contains historical non-GAAP financial measures including Adjusted gross profit, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, which are measurements not calculated in accordance with US GAAP, in the discussion of our financial results because they are key metrics used by management to assess financial performance. Our business is capital-intensive, and these additional metrics allow management to further evaluate our operating performance.  Reconciliations of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are contained herein. To the extent required, statements disclosing the definitions, utility and purposes of these measures are also set forth herein.

Definitions:

Target Hospitality defines Adjusted gross profit, as Gross profit plus depreciation of specialty rental assets, loss on impairment, and certain severance costs.

Target Hospitality defines EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense and loss on extinguishment of debt, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation of specialty rental assets, and other depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA reflects the following further adjustments to EBITDA to exclude certain non-cash items and the effect of what management considers transactions or events not related to its core business operations:

• Other (income) expense, net: Other (income) expense, net includes miscellaneous cash receipts, gains and losses on disposals of property, plant, and equipment, involuntary asset conversion gains and losses, COVID-19 related expenses, and other immaterial non-cash charges.
• Transaction expenses: Target Hospitality incurred certain transaction costs during 2021 and 2022, including legal and professional fees, associated with the previously announced non-binding proposal made by Arrow Holdings S.à r.l. ("Arrow"), an affiliate of TDR Capital LLP ("TDR"), to acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Target Hospitality not owned by Arrow or its affiliates for cash consideration of $1.50 per share in 2021. The non-binding proposal was withdrawn by Arrow on March 29, 2021.
• Stock-based compensation: Charges associated with stock-based compensation expense, which has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense in our business and an important part of our compensation strategy.
• Change in fair value of warrant liabilities: Non-cash change in estimated fair value of warrant liabilities.
• Other adjustments: System implementation costs, including primarily non-cash amortization of capitalized system implementation costs, claim settlement, business development, accounting standard implementation costs and certain severance costs.

Utility and Purposes:

EBITDA reflects net income (loss) excluding the impact of interest expense and loss on extinguishment of debt, provision for income taxes, depreciation, and amortization. We believe that EBITDA is a meaningful indicator of operating performance because we use it to measure our ability to service debt, fund capital expenditures, and expand our business. We also use EBITDA, as do analysts, lenders, investors, and others, to evaluate companies because it excludes certain items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry. For example, interest expense can be dependent on a company's capital structure, debt levels, and credit ratings. Accordingly, the impact of interest expense on earnings can vary significantly among companies. The tax positions of companies can also vary because of their differing abilities to take advantage of tax benefits and because of the tax policies of the jurisdictions in which they operate. As a result, effective tax rates and provision for income taxes can vary considerably among companies. EBITDA also excludes depreciation and amortization expense, because companies utilize productive assets of different ages and use different methods of both acquiring and depreciating productive assets. These differences can result in considerable variability in the relative costs of productive assets and the depreciation and amortization expense among companies.

Target Hospitality also believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful indicator of operating performance. Our Adjusted EBITDA reflects adjustments to exclude the effects of additional items, including certain items, that are not reflective of the ongoing operating results of Target Hospitality.  In addition, to derive Adjusted EBITDA, we exclude gains or losses on the sale of depreciable assets and impairment losses because including them in EBITDA is inconsistent with reporting the ongoing performance of our remaining assets. Additionally, the gain or loss on sale of depreciable assets and impairment losses represents either accelerated depreciation or excess depreciation in previous periods, and depreciation is excluded from EBITDA.

Adjusted gross profit, EBITDA and, Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of Target Hospitality's financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to Net income (loss), or other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP, or as alternatives to cash flow from operating activities as measures of Target Hospitality's liquidity.  Adjusted gross profit, EBITDA, and, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as discretionary cash available to Target Hospitality to reinvest in the growth of our business or as measures of cash that is available to it to meet our obligations. In addition, these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Target Hospitality's management believe that Adjusted gross profit, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to investors about Target Hospitality and its financial condition and results of operations for the following reasons: (i) they are among the measures used by Target Hospitality's management team to evaluate its operating performance; (ii) they are among the measures used by Target Hospitality's management team to make day-to-day operating decisions, (iii) they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties as a common performance measure to compare results across companies in Target Hospitality's industry.
