Second Quarter 2022 Highlights:
First Half 2022 Highlights:
Russ Becker, APi’s President and Chief Executive Officer stated: “I am pleased with our strong results for the second quarter, including record net revenues, record adjusted EBITDA and record adjusted diluted earnings per share, as well as the first half of the year, especially in this ongoing volatile macro environment. Our revenue momentum continues to reflect strong demand for our services across our portfolio and it is gratifying to see Chubb have organic growth in the year-to-date period after many years of decline under prior ownership. We saw strong continued growth in net revenues on an organic basis of approximately 12% in our legacy business and in line with our strategic initiatives, we saw a 20%+ increase in inspection, service and monitoring revenue as we march towards our goal of 60%+ as a percentage of total net revenues. This was a key driver of the 282 basis point increase in adjusted gross margin compared to the prior year period as on average, inspection and service revenue generates 10%+ higher gross margin and monitoring revenue generates 20%+ higher gross margin than contract revenue. In addition, we generated seasonally significant free cash flow and continued to offset short-term margin pressures from inflationary cost increases and supply chain disruptions through pricing actions, fuel surcharges and procurement initiatives, all of which contributed to a solid quarter. As we look ahead to the remainder of 2022, we expect the macro environment to remain volatile. We will remain laser focused on the activities that helped us deliver a strong first half, including pricing, our focus on growing inspection, service and monitoring revenue, strong spend controls, and disciplined project and customer selection. We are focused on continuing to deliver strong operating and financial performance while also executing on our long-term goals including value capture opportunities relating to our acquisition of Chubb and beginning the budgeting process for 2023.” APi Co-Chair James E. Lillie added: “We are very pleased with how the business is performing in this volatile environment. It is clear to us that our strategic focus on growing inspection, service and monitoring revenue through our market-leading brands, and working tirelessly to become more efficient in the way we do business, is a winning formula whether the macro environment is for you or against you. APi’s execution against its goals despite challenges faced in an uncertain macro environment speak to the strength of the Company’s recurring revenue, services-focused business model, the discipline of the organization and its leadership team. Importantly, we are pleased that our historical and ongoing investment in our employees across our platform has protected us from the turnover of employees that many of our competitors are managing through. We remain an employer of choice with modest attrition which helps protect efficiency, productivity and margins. The integration of Chubb is going very well and is ahead of our initial plan. We look forward to detailing the specific actions that have been taken, the initiatives that are underway, the savings achieved, the efficiencies captured and the planned steps across the various regions in which we operate that will occur over the months and years ahead to drive savings, efficiencies and most importantly, organic growth. We plan to hold an integration update call with investors later this year and look forward to updating investors on our progress and plans.” Conference Call APi will hold a webcast/dial-in conference call to discuss its financial results at 8:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) on Thursday, August 4, 2022.

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.
