First Quarter 2022 Highlights:
Russ Becker, APi’s President and Chief Executive Officer stated: “We are pleased with our strong start to 2022 and the positive momentum we have across the entire business. Net revenues increased on an organic basis by 16% in the first quarter and we saw robust demand across our key end markets. In addition, our consolidated backlog continues to build and was at a record high level as of the end of March, providing us with a solid foundation for continued growth as we move through the rest of the year and into 2023. The integration at Chubb is off to a good start and the strategic rationale for the transaction is proving even stronger than initially planned. After having our team on the ground for the last 90 days and working with local leadership, we believe we now see a clear path to value capture opportunities that are up from our initial assessment of $20 million prior to the closing of the acquisition. We expect this figure to continue to evolve and grow as we learn more and we believe that most of the projected value capture opportunities can be achieved within three years. Overall, I am pleased with the forward progress of all of our businesses and what has been achieved in the first quarter. We feel good about the momentum we have across the board and the outlook for the balance of this year and the years ahead.” APi Co-Chair James E. Lillie added: “We have had a solid start to the year and the integration of Chubb is on track and the business is performing in line with our expectations. Our belief when acquiring Chubb was that the acquisition would not only position APi well for continued success and improve the protective moat surrounding the business, but that it would also create significant upside for shareholders and employees. We believe the combined business will offer customers more customized and proprietary offerings through our uniquely trained technicians and engineers. In addition, we believe that our scale will drive synergies and savings that can be redeployed back into the business to accelerate growth while enhancing margin expansion. We look forward to providing more color on our strategic activities related to the acquisition of Chubb later in the year.” Conference Call APi will hold a webcast/dial-in conference call to discuss its financial results at 8:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) on Wednesday, May 4, 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures This press release contains non-U.S. GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company uses certain non-U.S. GAAP financial measures that are included in this press release and the additional financial information both in explaining its results to shareholders and the investment community and in its internal evaluation and management of its businesses. The Company’s management believes that these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures and the information they provide are useful to investors since these measures (a) permit investors to view the Company’s performance using the same tools that management uses to evaluate the Company’s past performance, reportable business segments and prospects for future performance, (b) permit investors to compare the Company with its peers and (c) determine certain elements of management’s incentive compensation. Specifically:
While the Company believes these non-U.S. GAAP measures are useful in evaluating the Company’s performance, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for or superior to the related financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Additionally, these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures may differ from similar measures presented by other companies. A reconciliation of these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures is included later in this press release. Beginning with the first quarter of 2022, the Company has combined its Industrial Services and Specialty Services segments into one operating segment. Certain prior year amounts have been recast to conform to this presentation and the information in the tables below has been retroactively adjusted to reflect these changes in reporting segments.
