(TSX/NYSE: WCN) (&#8220;Waste Connections&#8221; or the &#8220;Company&#8221;) today announced its results for the second quarter of 2023 and updated its outlook for the full year.&#160; </p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:10pt;text-align:justify;margin:0pt;"><font style="color:#ff0000;visibility:hidden;">&#8203;</font></p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:10pt;text-align:justify;margin:0pt;">&#8220;We are extremely pleased by the strength of operational execution during the quarter for a solid beat on revenue and adjusted EBITDA<sup style="font-size:7.5pt;vertical-align:top;">(b)</sup> to deliver margins 30 basis points above our outlook. &#160;Solid waste core pricing growth of 9.8% positioned us to expand underlying solid waste collection, transfer and disposal margins by one hundred basis points in the period, largely overcoming the ongoing headwinds from year-over-year declines in recovered commodity values and continued inflationary pressures during the period,&#8221; said Ronald J. Mittelstaedt, President and Chief Executive Officer. &#160;</p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:10pt;text-align:justify;margin:0pt;"><font style="visibility:hidden;">&#8203;</font></p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:10pt;text-align:justify;margin:0pt;">&#8220;Our performance in the first half of 2023, along with recent acquisitions and reduced headwinds from fuel and other commodity-related impacts, positions us to increase our full year outlook for adjusted EBITDA<sup style="font-size:7.5pt;vertical-align:top;">(b)</sup> to approximately $2.525 billion, expanding our adjusted EBITDA<sup style="font-size:7.5pt;vertical-align:top;">(b)</sup> margin to 31.5%, up 40 basis points from our initial outlook and up 70 basis points as compared to the prior year.&#8221;</p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:10pt;text-align:justify;margin:0pt;"><font style="visibility:hidden;">&#8203;</font></p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:10pt;text-align:justify;margin:0pt;">Mr. Mittelstaedt added, &#8220;The strength of our results reflects our focus on quality of revenue through the shedding of low margin volumes and furthered by strategic acquisitions, including Arrowhead, a $100 million revenue integrated transportation and disposal network with rail access providing enhanced internalization opportunities to our operations across the Northeast. &#160;Already having completed acquisitions with over $160 million in annualized solid waste revenue year to date, we see plenty of runway and opportunity for continued activity throughout the balance of the year. &#160;Most importantly, we are encouraged by improving trends in safety and employee retention, as we double down on human capital in our decentralized operating model, including through the realignment of our organizational structure with the addition of a sixth region and refinements to our corporate operational structure, and we look forward to driving outsized margin expansion in the second half of 2023 and into 2024.&#8221;

non-GAAP financial measure, is provided supplementally because it is widely used by investors as a performance and valuation measure in the solid waste industry. &#160;Management uses adjusted EBITDA as one of the principal measures to evaluate and monitor the ongoing financial performance of Waste Connections&#8217; operations. &#160;Waste Connections defines adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to Waste Connections, plus or minus net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests, plus income tax provision, plus interest expense, less interest income, plus depreciation and amortization expense, plus closure and post-closure accretion expense, plus or minus any loss or gain on impairments and other operating items, plus other expense, less other income. &#160;Waste Connections further adjusts this calculation to exclude the effects of other items management believes impact the ability to assess the operating performance of its business. &#160;This measure is not a substitute for, and should be used in conjunction with, GAAP financial measures. &#160;Other companies may calculate adjusted EBITDA differently. &#160;</p><p style="font-family:'Times New

further adjusts this calculation to exclude the effects of items management believes impact the ability to evaluate the liquidity of its business operations. &#160;This measure is not a substitute for, and should be used in conjunction with, GAAP liquidity or financial measures. &#160;Other companies may calculate adjusted free cash flow differently.</p><p style="font-family:'Times New

both non-GAAP financial measures, are provided supplementally because they are widely used by investors as a valuation measure in the solid waste industry. &#160;Management uses adjusted net income attributable to Waste Connections and adjusted net income per diluted share attributable to Waste Connections as one of the principal measures to evaluate and monitor the ongoing financial performance of Waste Connections&#8217; operations. &#160;Waste Connections provides adjusted net income attributable to Waste Connections to exclude the effects of items management believes impact the comparability of operating results between periods. &#160;Adjusted net income attributable to Waste Connections has limitations due to the fact that it excludes items that have an impact on the Company&#8217;s financial condition and results of operations. &#160;Adjusted net income attributable to Waste Connections and adjusted net income per diluted share attributable to Waste Connections are not a substitute for, and should be used in conjunction with, GAAP financial measures. &#160;Other companies may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently. &#160;</p><p
