Guidance does not include contribution from any incremental M&A

VAUGHAN, ON, Feb. 20, 2024 /CNW/ - GFL Environmental Inc. (NYSE: GFL) (TSX: GFL) ("GFL", "we" or "our") today announced its results for the fourth quarter and full year 2023, as well as guidance for full year 2024.

"Our employees delivered another exceptional year of results," said Patrick Dovigi, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of GFL. "In 2023, our continued focus on strong execution drove double-digit, industry-leading organic revenue growth, including Solid Waste core pricing increase of 9.8% for the year, the highest in our history. We also grew Adjusted EBITDA¹ for the year by 21.1%, excluding the impact of divestitures, and demonstrated significant operating leverage, resulting in Solid Waste Adjusted EBITDA margin¹ expansion of 180 basis points and Environmental Services Adjusted EBITDA margin¹ expansion of 160 basis points, year-over-year."

Mr. Dovigi continued, "In 2023, we continued to optimize our asset base to create long-term sustainable shareholder value, including the divestiture of three non-core U.S. solid waste businesses for $1.6 billion in proceeds, $275.0 million of which we reinvested into higher margin, accretive organic growth initiatives such as RNG and new contract wins related to Extended Producer Responsibility recycling legislation in Canada. Our EPR-related investments are expected to generate an aggregate of $80.0 to $100.0 million of incremental Adjusted EBITDA³ starting in Q4 2024 and ramping up to the full run-rate by 2026. On RNG, our first contributions from our Arbor Hills facility are expected in Q1 2024 and we remain confident in our ability to achieve $175.0 million of annual Adjusted EBITDA³ from our RNG-related investments by 2026."

"Additionally, we deployed approximately $900 million into 39 highly accretive acquisitions, which we expect will generate revenue of approximately $355 million² on an annualized basis. In 2024, consistent with our capital allocation framework announced in November, we expect to deploy between $600.0 and $650.0 million into densifying tuck-in M&A."

"Inclusive of the impact of our growth capital deployment, we reduced Net Leverage¹ nearly a full turn since the prior year. We also successfully completed several refinancing initiatives, the effects of which were to reduce our cost of borrowing, increase our proportion of fixed interest rate debt from 72% to 86% and extend our debt maturities to 2031. We remain committed to making disciplined capital allocation decisions while continuing to de-lever the business, with a focus on moving toward an investment grade credit rating in the medium term."

"Our results for the year demonstrate that our commitment to our strategy is working. Over the past 15 years, we have assembled a best-in-class asset base across North America and now it is time to optimize what we have built. The strong pricing momentum exiting 2023 positions us for 9% top line growth in 2024, before considering the impact of incremental M&A, and over 100 basis points of organic Adjusted EBITDA margin³ expansion for 2024."

Mr. Dovigi concluded, "I could not be prouder of our over 20,000 employees who continue to demonstrate their exceptional ability to execute our growth strategy. I continue to be excited about the future and the many opportunities that lie ahead of us."

Full Year 2024 Guidance³

GFL also provided its guidance for 2024.

Revenue is estimated to be approximately $8,000 million.
- Full year Solid Waste core pricing of 6.0% to 6.5%, surcharges of (0.4%), volume of (1.25%) to (1.0%), as a result of the rollover impact of intentional shedding of low margin business, and commodity price impact of 0.2%.
- Environmental Services organic growth of 5.0% to 5.5%.
- Revenue from M&A contribution of 4.0%.
- Assumes no foreign exchange impact (2024 guidance based on USD/CAD exchange rate of 1.35 versus the average 2023 exchange rate of 1.35).
Adjusted EBITDA³ is estimated to be approximately $2,215 million.
- Full year Adjusted EBITDA margin³ is expected to be approximately 27.7%, increase of 100 basis points.
Adjusted Free Cash Flow³ is estimated to be approximately $800 million.
- Full year net capex is expected to be between $850.0 million and $900.0 million, excluding approximately $250 million to $300 million of incremental growth capital expected to be deployed in 2024 related to renewable natural gas projects, material recycling facilities and other infrastructure primarily related to opportunities arising under extended producer responsibility legislation.
Excluding the impact of anticipated incremental growth capital opportunities described above and anticipated M&A, Net Leverage³ is estimated to be mid 3's by the end of 2024, resulting from growth in Adjusted EBITDA³ and Adjusted Free Cash Flow³. Including the aggregate impact of $900.0 million in these anticipated growth capital opportunities and M&A, Net Leverage³ at year end is estimated to be between 3.65x and 3.85x.

The 2024 guidance excludes any impact from acquisitions not yet completed, refinancing opportunities and any redeployment of capital. Implicit in forward-looking information in respect of our expectations for 2024 are certain current assumptions, including, among others, no changes to the current economic environment, including fuel and commodities. The 2024 guidance assumes GFL will continue to execute on our strategy of organically growing our business, leveraging our scalable network to attract and retain customers across multiple service lines, realizing operational efficiencies and extracting procurement and cost synergies. See "Forward-Looking Information".

Environmental, Social and Governance

GFL views our Environmental, Social and Governance efforts as integral to our business and long-term value creation for all stakeholders. In 2022, we released our 2021 Sustainability Report and established our Sustainability Action Plan which lays out a clear path to achieving our long-term goals aimed at benefiting the environment and the customers and communities that we serve. In 2023, we released our 2022 Sustainability Update Report to update stakeholders on our progress in implementing our Sustainability Action Plan. Our goals include increasing our recyclables recovered at our material recovery facilities by 40%, reducing our total scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 15%, doubling the beneficial use of biogas generated from our landfills and having renewable natural gas power at least 85% of our compressed natural gas solid waste collection fleet in the United States, all by 2030, and investing in our communities through our Full Circle Project.

The forward-looking information contained in this release represents our expectations as of the date of this release (or as the date it is otherwise stated to be made), and is subject to change after such date. However, we disclaim any intention or obligation or undertaking to update or revise any forward-looking information whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required under applicable U.S. or Canadian securities laws. The purpose of disclosing our financial outlook set out in this release is to provide investors with more information concerning the financial impact of our business initiatives and growth strategies.

Non-IFRS Measures

This release makes reference to certain non-IFRS measures. These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. Rather, these non-IFRS measures are used to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance and thus highlight trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. We also believe that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of issuers. Our management also uses non-IFRS measures in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts and to determine components of management compensation.

EBITDA represents, for the applicable period, net income (loss) from continuing operations plus (a) interest and other finance costs, plus (b) depreciation and amortization of property and equipment, landfill assets and intangible assets, plus (less) (c) the provision (recovery) for income taxes, in each case to the extent deducted or added to/from net income (loss) from continuing operations. We present EBITDA to assist readers in understanding the mathematical development of Adjusted EBITDA. Management does not use EBITDA as a financial performance metric.

Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure used by management and other users of our financial statements including our lenders and investors, to assess the financial performance of our business without regard to financing methods or capital structure. Adjusted EBITDA is also a key metric that management uses prior to execution of any strategic investing or financing opportunity. For example, management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measure in determining the value of acquisitions, expansion opportunities and dispositions. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is utilized by financial institutions to measure borrowing capacity. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adding and deducting, as applicable from EBITDA, certain expenses, costs, charges or benefits incurred in such period which in management's view are either not indicative of underlying business performance or impact the ability to assess the operating performance of our business, including: (a) (gain) loss on foreign exchange, (b) (gain) loss on sale of property and equipment, (c) mark-to-market (gain) loss on Purchase Contracts, (d) share of net (income) loss of investments accounted for using the equity method, (e) share-based payments, (f) (gain) loss on divestiture, (g) transaction costs, (h) acquisition, rebranding and other integration costs (included in cost of sales related to acquisition activity) and (i) other. We use Adjusted EBITDA to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis reflecting factors and trends affecting our business. For the year ended December 31, 2023, we added back our share of net (income) loss of investments accounted for using the equity method. As we continue to grow our business, we may be faced with new events or circumstances that are not indicative of our underlying business performance or that impact the ability to assess our operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. Management and other users of our financial statements including our lenders and investors use Adjusted EBITDA margin to facilitate a comparison of the operating performance of each of our operating segments on a consistent basis reflecting factors and trends affecting our business.

Acquisition EBITDA represents, for the applicable period, management's estimates of the annual Adjusted EBITDA of an acquired business, based on its most recently available historical financial information at the time of acquisition, as adjusted to give effect to (a) the elimination of expenses related to the prior owners and certain other costs and expenses that are not indicative of the underlying business performance, if any, as if such business had been acquired on the first day of such period and (b) contract and acquisition annualization for contracts entered into and acquisitions completed by such acquired business prior to our acquisition (collectively, "Acquisition EBITDA Adjustments"). Further adjustments are made to such annual Adjusted EBITDA to reflect estimated operating cost savings and synergies, if any, anticipated to be realized upon acquisition and integration of the business into our operations. Acquisition EBITDA is calculated net of divestitures. We use Acquisition EBITDA for the acquired businesses to adjust our Adjusted EBITDA to include a proportional amount of the Acquisition EBITDA of the acquired businesses based upon the respective number of months of operation for such period prior to the date of our acquisition of each such business.

Adjusted Cash Flows from Operating Activities represents cash flows from operating activities adjusted for (a) operating cash flows from discontinued operations, (b) transaction costs, (c) acquisition, rebranding and other integration costs, (d) M&A related net working capital investment, (e) cash interest paid on TEUs and (f) cash taxes related to divestitures. Adjusted Cash Flows from Operating Activities is a supplemental measure used by investors as a valuation and liquidity measure in our industry. Adjusted Cash Flows from Operating Activities is a supplemental measure used by management to evaluate and monitor liquidity and the ongoing financial performance of GFL.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow represents Adjusted Cash Flows from Operating Activities adjusted for (a) proceeds on disposal of assets and other, (b) purchase of property and equipment, (c) investment in joint ventures and (d) incremental growth investments. For the year ended December 31, 2022, purchase of property and equipment excludes those by GFL's Infrastructure services division ("GFL Infrastructure"). Adjusted Free Cash Flow is a supplemental measure used by investors as a valuation and liquidity measure in our industry. Adjusted Free Cash Flow is a supplemental measure used by management to evaluate and monitor liquidity and the ongoing financial performance of GFL.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) from continuing operations represents net income (loss) for continuing operations adjusted for (a) amortization of intangible assets, (b) ARO discount rate depreciation adjustment, (c) incremental depreciation of property and equipment due to recapitalization, (d) amortization of deferred financing costs, (e) (gain) loss on foreign exchange, (f) mark-to-market (gain) loss on Purchase Contracts, (g) share of net (income) loss of investments accounted for using the equity method, (h) (gain) loss on divestiture, (i) transaction costs, (j) acquisition, rebranding and other integration costs, (k) TEU amortization expense, (l) other and (m) the tax impact of the forgoing. For the year ended December 31, 2023, we added back our share of net (income) loss of investments accounted for using the equity method. Adjusted income (loss) per share from continuing operations is defined as Adjusted Net Income (Loss) from continuing operations divided by the weighted average shares in the period. We believe that Adjusted income (loss) per share from continuing operations provides a meaningful comparison of current results to prior periods' results by excluding items that GFL does not believe reflect its fundamental business performance.

Net Leverage is a supplemental measure used by management to evaluate borrowing capacity and capital allocation strategies. Net Leverage is equal to our total long-term debt, as adjusted for fair value, deferred financings and other adjustments and reduced by our cash, divided by Run-Rate EBITDA.

Run-Rate EBITDA represents Adjusted EBITDA for the applicable period as adjusted to give effect to management's estimates of (a) Acquisition EBITDA Adjustments (as defined above) and (b) the impact of annualization of certain new municipal and disposal contracts and cost savings initiatives, entered into, commenced or implemented, as applicable, in such period, as if such contracts or costs savings initiatives had been entered into, commenced or implemented, as applicable, on the first day of such period ((a) and (b), collectively, "Run-Rate EBITDA Adjustments"). Run-Rate EBITDA has not been adjusted to take into account the impact of the cancellation of contracts and cost increases associated with these contracts. These adjustments reflect monthly allocations of Acquisition EBITDA for the acquired businesses based on straight line proration. As a result, these estimates do not take into account the seasonality of a particular acquired business. While we do not believe the seasonality of any one acquired business is material when aggregated with other acquired businesses, the estimates may result in a higher or lower adjustment to our Run-Rate EBITDA than would have resulted had we adjusted for the actual results of each of the acquired businesses for the period prior to our acquisition. We primarily use Run-Rate EBITDA to show how GFL would have performed if each of the acquired businesses had been consummated at the start of the period as well as to show the impact of the annualization of certain new municipal and disposal contracts and cost savings initiatives. We also believe that Run-Rate EBITDA is useful to investors and creditors to monitor and evaluate our borrowing capacity and compliance with certain of our debt covenants. Run-Rate EBITDA as presented herein is calculated in accordance with the terms of our revolving credit agreement.
