Lamar Advertising Company (the “Company” or “Lamar”) (Nasdaq:
LAMR), a leading owner and operator of outdoor advertising and logo
sign displays, announces the Company’s operating results for the
third quarter ended September 30, 2024.
“Our third quarter results came in largely as
expected, with particular strength in local and programmatic sales.
Expenses were slightly elevated but as we move through Q4, we see
that correcting and see full year consolidated EBITDA margins
coming in right around 47%,” chief executive Sean Reilly said. “In
addition, Q4 revenue growth is pacing ahead of Q3. Consequently, we
are raising full year guidance for diluted AFFO to a range of $7.85
to $7.95 per share.”
Third Quarter Highlights
• Net
revenues increased 4.0%• Net income
increased 5.3%• Adjusted EBITDA increased

Use of Non-GAAP Financial
Measures
The Company has presented the following measures
that are not measures of performance under accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”):
adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization (“adjusted EBITDA”), free cash flow, funds from
operations (“FFO”), adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”),
diluted AFFO per share, outdoor operating income,
acquisition-adjusted results and acquisition-adjusted consolidated
expense. Our management reviews our performance by focusing on
these key performance indicators not prepared in conformity with
GAAP. We believe these non-GAAP performance indicators are
meaningful supplemental measures of our operating performance and
should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for
their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
Our Non-GAAP financial measures are determined
as follows:
- We define
adjusted EBITDA as net income before income tax expense (benefit),
interest expense (income), loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt
and investments, equity in (earnings) loss of investee, stock-based
compensation, depreciation and amortization, loss (gain) on
disposition of assets and investments, transaction expenses and
investments and capitalized contract fulfillment costs, net.
- Adjusted EBITDA margin
is defined as adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenues.
- Free cash flow is
defined as adjusted EBITDA less interest, net of interest income
and amortization of deferred financing costs, current taxes,
preferred stock dividends and total capital expenditures.
- We use the National
Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts definition of FFO,
which is defined as net income before (gain) loss from the sale or
disposal of real estate assets and investments, net of tax, and
real estate related depreciation and amortization and including
adjustments to eliminate unconsolidated affiliates and
non-controlling interest.
- We define AFFO as
FFO before (i) straight-line income and expense; (ii)
capitalized contract fulfillment costs, net; (iii) stock-based
compensation expense; (iv) non-cash portion of tax expense
(benefit); (v) non-real estate related depreciation and
amortization; (vi) amortization of deferred financing costs;
(vii) loss on extinguishment of debt; (viii) transaction
expenses; (ix) non-recurring infrequent or unusual losses (gains);
(x) less maintenance capital expenditures; and (xi) an
adjustment for unconsolidated affiliates and non-controlling
interest.
- Diluted AFFO per
share is defined as AFFO divided by weighted average diluted common
shares outstanding.
- Outdoor operating
income is defined as operating income before corporate expenses,
stock-based compensation, capitalized contract fulfillment costs,
net, transaction expenses, depreciation and amortization and loss
(gain) on disposition of assets.
-
Acquisition-adjusted results adjusts our net revenue, direct and
general and administrative expenses, outdoor operating income,
corporate expense and EBITDA for the prior period by adding to, or
subtracting from, the corresponding revenue or expense generated by
the acquired or divested assets before our acquisition or
divestiture of these assets for the same time frame that those
assets were owned in the current period. In calculating
acquisition-adjusted results, therefore, we include revenue and
expenses generated by assets that we did not own in the prior
period but acquired in the current period. We refer to the amount
of pre-acquisition revenue and expense generated by or subtracted
from the acquired assets during the prior period that corresponds
with the current period in which we owned the assets (to the extent
within the period to which this report relates) as
“acquisition-adjusted results”.
-
Acquisition-adjusted consolidated expense adjusts our total
operating expense to remove the impact of stock-based compensation,
depreciation and amortization, transaction expenses, capitalized
contract fulfillment costs, net, and loss (gain) on disposition of
assets and investments. The prior period is also adjusted to
include the expense generated by the acquired or divested assets
before our acquisition or divestiture of such assets for the same
time frame that those assets were owned in the current period.
Adjusted EBITDA, FFO, AFFO, diluted AFFO per
share, free cash flow, outdoor operating income,
acquisition-adjusted results and acquisition-adjusted consolidated
expense are not intended to replace other performance measures
determined in accordance with GAAP. Free cash flow, FFO and AFFO do
not represent cash flows from operating activities in accordance
with GAAP and, therefore, these measures should not be considered
indicative of cash flows from operating activities as a measure of
liquidity or of funds available to fund our cash needs, including
our ability to make cash distributions. Adjusted EBITDA, free cash
flow, FFO, AFFO, diluted AFFO per share, outdoor operating income,
acquisition-adjusted results and acquisition-adjusted consolidated
expense are presented as we believe each is a useful indicator of
our current operating performance. Specifically, we believe that
these metrics are useful to an investor in evaluating our operating
performance because (1) each is a key measure used by our
management team for purposes of decision making and for evaluating
our core operating results; (2) adjusted EBITDA is widely used
in the industry to measure operating performance as it excludes the
impact of depreciation and amortization, which may vary
significantly among companies, depending upon accounting methods
and useful lives, particularly where acquisitions and non-operating
factors are involved; (3) adjusted EBITDA, FFO, AFFO, diluted AFFO
per share and acquisition-adjusted consolidated expense each
provides investors with a meaningful measure for evaluating our
period-over-period operating performance by eliminating items that
are not operational in nature and reflect the impact on operations
from trends in occupancy rates, operating costs, general and
administrative expenses and interest costs;
(4) acquisition-adjusted results is a supplement to enable
investors to compare period-over-period results on a more
consistent basis without the effects of acquisitions and
divestitures, which reflects our core performance and organic
growth (if any) during the period in which the assets were owned
and managed by us; (5) free cash flow is an indicator of our
ability to service debt and generate cash for acquisitions and
other strategic investments; (6) outdoor operating income
provides investors a measurement of our core results without the
impact of fluctuations in stock-based compensation, depreciation
and amortization and corporate expenses; and (7) each of our
Non-GAAP measures provides investors with a measure for comparing
our results of operations to those of other companies.
Our measurement of adjusted EBITDA, FFO, AFFO,
diluted AFFO per share, free cash flow, outdoor operating income,
acquisition-adjusted results and acquisition-adjusted consolidated
expense may not, however, be fully comparable to similarly titled
measures used by other companies. Reconciliations of adjusted
EBITDA, FFO, AFFO, diluted AFFO per share, free cash flow, outdoor
operating income, acquisition-adjusted results and
acquisition-adjusted consolidated expense to the most directly
comparable GAAP measures have been included herein.
