Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Sentiment|Neutral
The call presents a mixed but stabilizing picture: 2025 was a challenging year with notable EBITDA declines, domestic coke headwinds, an ongoing Algoma dispute, one‑time impairment and transaction charges, and short‑term operational disruptions. Offsetting this, management closed the Phoenix acquisition (integration progressing), Industrial Services growth materially improved, the company retains solid liquidity and dividend discipline, and 2026 guidance points to a meaningful recovery in consolidated EBITDA and free cash flow with a clear deleveraging plan.Company Guidance
Consolidated 2025 Adjusted EBITDA and 2026 Guidance
Delivered consolidated adjusted EBITDA of $219.2M in 2025. Management guides to a recovery in 2026 with consolidated adjusted EBITDA of $230M–$250M (up ~4.9% to ~14.0% vs. 2025), and free cash flow guidance of $140M–$150M.
Industrial Services Growth (Phoenix Contribution)
Industrial Services (including Phoenix Global) generated $62.3M adjusted EBITDA in 2025, up $11.9M (+23.6% YoY). Phoenix acquisition (net purchase consideration ~$295.8M; cash acquired $24.3M) is expected to drive Industrial Services EBITDA to $90M–$100M in 2026 (+44.5% to +60.4% vs. 2025) with incremental synergies anticipated in 2027.
Strong Liquidity and Capital Return
Ended 2025 with $88.7M cash and $132M availability on a $325M revolver (total liquidity ~$221M). Returned ~$41M to shareholders via a $0.48 annual dividend and expect to continue quarterly dividends in 2026.
Positive Operating Cash Flow (Adjusted for One‑Time Items)
Reported operating cash flow of $109.1M in 2025. Management stated operating cash flow would have been approximately $59M higher without two one‑time items (Phoenix incentive/transaction cash of $29.3M and a $30M Algoma-related impact), implying adjusted operating cash flow of ~ $168.1M.
Safety Performance
Strong safety results: total recordable incident rate (TRIR), excluding Phoenix, of 0.55 for 2025, highlighted as a top priority and differentiator.
Deleveraging Plan
Plan to prioritize deleveraging and use excess free cash flow to pay down revolver; management expects 2026 year-end gross leverage around 2.45x, below the long-term target of 3.0x.
Capital Discipline and CapEx Execution
2025 capital expenditures were $66.8M (slightly below revised guidance of $70M). 2026 CapEx guidance is $90M–$100M reflecting a full year of Phoenix capex requirements.
