Net income was $18.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $46.5 million for the same period in 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA was $52.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $90.9 million for the same period in 2023.

The year over year decreases were primarily driven by non-cash, nonrecurring, infrastructure enhancement revenue amortization ("Infrastructure Revenue Amortization") associated with the Company's Pecos Children's Center ("PCC") community within the government segment.  As previously announced, on July 8, 2022, the Infrastructure Revenue Amortization was associated with material expansion and enhancement of the PCC community and was fully amortized as of November 2023.

Capital Management

The Company had approximately $8.6 million of capital expenditures for the three months ended June 30, 2024.  Capital expenditures were predominantly focused on enhancing and maintaining Target's modular accommodations across its expansive network.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company had approximately $154 million of cash and cash equivalents with approximately $329 million of total available liquidity, no outstanding borrowings on the Company's $175 million credit facility, and a net leverage ratio of 0.1 times.

Business Update and Full Year Outlook

Target's robust operating platform, network flexibility and commitment to maximize operational efficiencies has established an enhanced financial position.  These attributes support a highly durable and flexible operating model centered on an optimized balance sheet and liquidity profile.

These strengths support Target's continued evaluation of a robust pipeline of organic growth opportunities focused on diversifying Target's contract portfolio and broadening the Company's customer reach.  These opportunities remain centered on Target's full-turnkey hospitality solutions as well as expanding Target's value chain participation through individual elements of existing core competencies.  Importantly, as Target evaluates these opportunities there remains a sharp focus on maintaining its strong financial position through disciplined capital deployment.

As previously announced, on June 10, 2024, the Company received notice that the U.S. government intends to terminate the South Texas Family Residential Center contract ("STFRC Contract"), effective in 60 days, or on or about August 9, 2024.  Target's 2024 outlook gives effect to the recent STFRC Contract termination.

Regarding Target's PCC community, since 2021, the PCC community has served as a cornerstone to the U.S. government's critical domestic humanitarian aid mission supporting unaccompanied minors and the Company anticipates a normal course renewal of this contract in November of 2024.  However, given the dynamic fluctuations in community population, Target believes it prudent to exclude from its 2024 outlook any incremental PCC variable revenue.

Target's contract portfolio provides a high degree of revenue visibility, coupled with an efficient operating structure, these elements support strong cash generation and an optimized balance sheet.  As such, the Company is reiterating its 2024 outlook of:

• Total revenue between $375 and $385 million

• Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ between $184 and $190 million

• Total capital spending between $25 and $30 million, excluding acquisitions

• Zero net debt by year end 2024

• Year end 2024 total available liquidity exceeding $350 million

TDR Proposal Update

On March 25, 2024 Target announced that the Board of Directors of Target Hospitality ("the Board") received an unsolicited non-binding proposal from 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 that are not owned by any of Arrow, any investment fund managed by TDR or any of their respective affiliates, for cash consideration of $10.80 per share (the "Proposal").

The Board has established a special committee of independent directors (the "Special Committee"), and the Special Committee has retained Centerview Partners LLC and Ardea Partners LP as its financial advisors and Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP as its legal advisor.  The Special Committee continues its review and evaluation of the Proposal, as well as evaluating alternative proposals and other strategic alternatives.

The Special Committee has made no decision at this time with respect to the Proposal, and the Company does not undertake any obligation to provide any updates with respect to the Proposal or any other transaction, except as required by applicable law or other regulatory requirements.  There can be no assurance that any transaction will result from the Special Committee's evaluation of the Proposal, or, if so, the timing, terms and conditions of such transaction.

(1)   Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains historical non-GAAP financial measures including Adjusted gross profit, Discretionary Cash Flow, 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.

This press release also contains a forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure Adjusted EBITDA. Reconciliations of this forward-looking measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is unavailable to Target Hospitality without unreasonable effort. We cannot provide a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP financial measures because certain items required for such reconciliation are outside of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted, such as the provision for income taxes. Preparation of such reconciliation would require a forward-looking balance sheet, statement of income and statement of cash flow, prepared in accordance with GAAP, and such forward-looking financial statements are unavailable to us without unreasonable effort. Although we provide a minimum of Adjusted EBITDA that we believe will be achieved, we cannot accurately predict all the components of the Adjusted EBITDA calculation. Target Hospitality provides an Adjusted EBITDA outlook because we believe that this measure, when viewed with our results under GAAP, provide useful information for the reasons noted below.

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, and other immaterial expenses and non-cash items.

• Transaction expenses: Target Hospitality incurred certain immaterial transaction costs during 2023. During 2024, Target Hospitality incurred transaction costs associated with certain transactions, primarily driven by the Proposal.

• 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 non-cash amortization of capitalized system implementation costs, business development, accounting standard implementation costs and certain severance costs.

Target Hospitality defines Discretionary Cash Flow as cash flow from operations less maintenance capital expenditures for specialty rental assets.

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 and disposal 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 and disposal of depreciable assets and impairment losses represents either accelerated depreciation or excess depreciation in previous periods, and depreciation is excluded from EBITDA.

Target Hospitality also presents Discretionary cash flows because we believe it provides useful information regarding our business as more fully described below. Discretionary cash flows indicate the amount of cash available after maintenance capital expenditures for specialty rental assets for, among other things, investments in our existing business.

Adjusted gross profit, Discretionary Cash Flow, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of Target Hospitality's financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to gross profit, net income, 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, Discretionary Cash Flow, 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, Discretionary Cash Flows, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provides 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.
