“Our 2021 earnings were impacted by our fourth quarter performance in the Renewables business, driven by two issues – field project management inefficiencies associated with industry and market supply disruptions, and an unanticipated level of inflation on structural steel in our solar canopy racking projects,” Chairman and CEO Bill Bosway stated. “Overall, Renewables had solid revenue in the quarter but our costs to convert demand were higher than expected. We absorbed additional costs in the field related to project schedule changes, and our canopy business was hit with structural steel cost increases. It was a difficult quarter for the Renewables business, but I am proud of the team and how they worked together to manage market disruptions and ongoing inflation with customers and suppliers.”

“Despite the challenge in the fourth quarter, we have strong demand across our businesses and we continue to adapt our systems and processes to better execute in the current market conditions,” said Bosway. “We look forward to sharing a detailed review of the fourth quarter and our plan for 2022 on our fourth quarter 2021 earnings call.”

We have provided ranges for our preliminary financial results because our closing procedures for our fiscal quarter and year ended December 31, 2021 are not yet complete. The preliminary financial information presented in this press release reflect our current expectations based solely on information available to us as of the date of this press release and is subject to change, and may be adjusted as a result of, among other things, the completion of the Company’s financial and operating closing procedures, customary audit procedures and other developments that may occur before the completion of these procedures. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on these preliminary financial results, which may differ materially from actual results. See “Forward-Looking Statements” below for a discussion of certain factors that could result in differences between the preliminary estimated unaudited consolidated financial results reported in this press release and actual results.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain information set forth in this news release, other than historical statements, contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are based, in whole or in part, on current expectations, estimates, forecasts, and projections about the Company’s business, and management’s beliefs about future operations, results, and financial position. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to a number of risk factors, uncertainties, and assumptions. Actual events, performance, or results could differ materially from the anticipated events, performance, or results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, among other things, the impacts of COVID-19 on the global economy and on our customers, suppliers, employees, operations, business, liquidity and cash flows, other general economic conditions and conditions in the particular markets in which we operate including inflation and availability of materials, labor and transportation, changes in customer demand and capital spending, competitive factors and pricing pressures, our ability to develop and launch new products in a cost-effective manner, our ability to realize synergies from newly acquired businesses, and our ability to derive expected benefits from restructuring, productivity initiatives, liquidity enhancing actions, and other cost reduction actions. Before making any investment decisions regarding our company, we strongly advise you to read the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K which can be accessed under the “SEC Filings” link of the “Investor Info” page of our website at www.Gibraltar1.com. The Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by applicable law or regulation.

Adjusted Financial Measures

To supplement Gibraltar’s financial information presented on a GAAP basis, Gibraltar also presented certain adjusted financial measures in this news release, including adjusted EPS. Such adjusted financial measures exclude special charges consisting of restructuring costs primarily associated with 80/20 simplification initiatives, senior leadership transition costs, and acquisition related costs from adjusted EPS. The Company believes that the presentation of results excluding special charges provides meaningful supplemental data to investors, as well as management, that are indicative of the Company’s core operating results and facilitates comparison of operating results across reporting periods as well as comparison with other companies. Special charges are excluded since they may not be considered directly related to the Company’s ongoing business operations. These adjusted measures should not be viewed as a substitute for the Company’s GAAP results and may be different than adjusted measures used by other companies. The Company is not able to provide a meaningful quantitative reconciliation of adjusted earnings per share for 2021 to the corresponding GAAP measure due to the preliminary nature of the results. Adjusted measures for 2020 are shown in the reconciliation of adjusted financial measures excluding special charges provided in the supplemental financial schedules that accompany this news release.
