Bowman Consulting Group Ltd Announces Q1 2023 Financial Results, Beats Estimates and Raises Guidance

Bowman Consulting Group Ltd. (Nasdaq: BWMN) (“Bowman” or the “Company”), a national engineering services firm supporting owners and developers of the built environment, today released financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

“We started the year strong, exceeding estimates and building upon the solid foundation and excellent results we delivered in 2022,” said Gary Bowman, Chairman and CEO of Bowman. “During the first quarter, our net service revenue increased 42% year-over-year, driven both by strong organic growth of 12% and by contributions from the eight acquisitions that we completed over the last year. In keeping with our long-term strategic plan to diversify our revenue, our transportation services market outpaced our other markets with a nearly four-fold year-over-year increase in revenue and a nearly three-fold increase in its percentage of our total revenue mix.”

“New order volume in the first quarter exceeded our goals and we entered the second quarter with a strong backlog and several awards in hand where contracts are not yet finalized, so the revenue is not yet included in our backlog. As such, we remain confident in our ability to continue to deliver growth in 2023 and are therefore increasing our full year guidance for net revenues and adjusted EBITDA,” Bowman continued. “Additionally, we continue to have a strong pipeline of acquisition opportunities. In April, we completed the acquisition of Richter & Associates, a Rockville, Maryland based professional services firm focused on dry utility infrastructure engineering, which continues our ongoing diversification effort to build our power and utility services revenue.”

Financial highlights for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to March 31, 2022:

  • Gross revenue of $76.1 million, compared to $52.5 million, a 45% increase
  • Year-over-year organic gross revenue growth1 of 13%
  • Net service billing1,2 of $67.6 million, compared to $47.7 million, a 42% increase
  • Year-over-year organic net service billing growth of 12%
  • Net income of $0.5 million, compared to a net income of $1.5 million
  • Adjusted EBITDA2 of $9.7 million, compared to $7.4 million, a 31% increase
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin, net2 of 14.3% compared to 15.5%, a 120 bps decrease
  • Gross backlog2 of $252 million, compared to $173 million, a 46% increase

Business highlights subsequent to the first quarter 2023:

  • Acquisition of Richter & Associates, a utility services engineering firm focused on last mile utility infrastructure design; April 2023

Increasing FY 2023 Guidance

The Company is increasing its full year 2023 outlook for Net Service Billing to be in the range of $285 to $300 million and Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $44 to $50 million. The current outlook for 2023 is based on completed acquisitions as of the date of this release and does not include contributions from any future acquisitions. Management will discuss the Company’s acquisition pipeline during its upcoming earnings call.
