News Release
North American Construction Group Ltd. Announces
Results for the Second Quarter Ended June 30, 2024
ACHESON, Alberta, July 31, 2024 - North American Construction Group Ltd. ("NACG")(TSX:NOA.TO/NYSE:NOA) today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024. Unless otherwise indicated, financial figures are expressed in Canadian dollars, and comparisons are to the prior period ended June 30, 2023.
Second Quarter 2024 Highlights:
•Combined revenue of $329.7 million compared favorably to $278.6 million in the same period last year, is a second quarter record and reflected best operational quarter to date from the Australian fleet of the MacKellar Group which was acquired on October 1, 2023.
•Reported revenue of $276.3 million, compared to $195.2 million in the same period last year, was primarily generated by strong equipment utilization of 82% in Australia but was offset by lower equipment operating hours in the oil sands region due to adverse weather conditions in May and June.
•Our net share of revenue from equity consolidated joint ventures was $53.4 million in Q2 2024 and compared to $83.4 million in the same period last year as the increases at Fargo project in the current quarter were offset by gold mine project scopes in Northern Ontario completed in the prior quarter.
•Adjusted EBITDA of $86.9 million and margin of 26.3% compared favorably to the prior period operating metrics of $51.8 million and 18.6%, respectively, as revenue increases drove higher gross EBITDA with margin improvements driven by effective operations in Australia and Canada.
•Combined gross profit of $60.4 million and margin of 18.3% was impacted by a one-time charge for equipment disposal. This margin compares favorably to the 13.0% posted in the same period last year as diversification efforts and effective operations contributed to improved margins in the quarter.
•Cash flows generated from operating activities of $59.0 million was higher than the $40.2 million generated in the prior period as higher cash generation from the strong EBITDA was offset by the temporary impact of changes to working capital in the quarter.
•Free cash flow used in the quarter was $1.5 million. Free cash flow prior to working capital changes and increases in capital work in progress was over $30 million resulting from strong revenues and margins offset by our routine capital maintenance program.
•Net debt was $832.7 million at June 30, 2024, an increase of $109.3 million from December 31, 2023, as year-to-date free cash flow usage and growth asset purchases required debt financing. The cash-related interest rate was 7.0% primarily driven by Bank of Canada posted rates and correlated equipment financing rates.
•Additional highlights: i) transport and delivery of approximately twenty haul trucks from Canada to Australia remains on schedule with commissioning expected in late Q3; ii) ERP implementation in Australia targeting a go-live date in Q3; and iii) equipment telematics progressed with the introduction of Hitachi functionality in Canada and establishment of mobile data infrastructure at mine sites in Australia.
In response to a challenging first half of 2024, the Company has updated its full year expectations with the outlook for the second half of 2024 remaining in line with original expectations set in October 2023. The updated full year adjusted earnings range is $3.95 to $4.15 per share and, with $1.56 generated in the first half of the year, implies a second half range of approximately $2.40 to $2.60 per share.
Joe Lambert, President and CEO, stated, "I am encouraged by the underlying fundamentals of our business. Our drive for operational excellence day-in day-out remains strong as ever and I am proud of the operating culture we have here at NACG. In reviewing our medium and long-term outlooks with our operational and estimating teams in Australia and Canada, we have much to be excited about in the second half of 2024, full year 2025 and beyond."

Financial Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2024
Revenue for Q2 2024 of $276.3 million represented an increase of $81.1 million (or 42%) from Q2 2023. The increase is primarily due to the inclusion of results from the MacKellar Group ("MacKellar") following its acquisition on October 1, 2023.
The Heavy Equipment - Australia segment showed strong performance, driven by MacKellar’s Q2 results, which exceeded Q1 2024 by 9.9%, largely due to steady and consistent operating conditions in particular at the

EXHIBIT 99.1
Carmichael and Middlemount mine sites. Equipment utilization for the quarter was 82% with May posting a 89%, above the stated target for the Australian fleet of 85%. The month of June did experience some rains late in the month bringing utilization to 79% in that month and tempering revenues slightly. In addition to stable operating conditions during the quarter, certain growth assets were commissioned in both Western Australia and Queensland and had meaningful, but not full quarter, contributions to top-line revenue. DGI Trading Pty Ltd. ("DGI") posted another strong quarter and continues to benefit from international demand for low-cost used components and major parts required by heavy equipment fleets in the mining industry.
The Heavy Equipment - Canada segment posted a decline in revenue compared to the prior year as equipment utilization decreased to 42% from adverse weather conditions in May and June. Wildfire protocols caused work stoppages in May and heavy rainfall in May and June caused work shifts being cancelled due to mine site and haul road conditions. It is estimated that the abnormally poor weather conditions in the quarter affected top-line results by approximately $20 million. Quarter over quarter, revenue decreased 30.6% and was primarily driven by changes in work completed at the Fort Hills and Syncrude mines as volumes at the Millenium mine remained consistent, in addition to the poor weather. Additionally, the comparative quarter benefited from higher utilization rates from NACG assets being operated at the gold mine in northern Ontario, a project that concluded in late August 2023.
Combined revenue of $329.7 million represented a $51.2 million (or 18%) increase from Q2 2023. Our share of revenue generated in Q2 2024 by joint ventures and affiliates was $53.4 million, compared to $83.4 million in Q2 2023. The completion of the gold mine project in northern Ontario at the end of August 2023 was the primary driver of this quarter over quarter variance. Offsetting this variance was the Fargo-Moorhead flood diversion project which completed another strong operational quarter, posted a 98% increase from scopes completed in the prior quarter and surpassed the 40% completion mark in June.
Adjusted EBITDA and the associated margin of $86.9 million and 26.3% exceeded our Q2 2023 results of $51.8 million and 18.6%, respectively. Despite lower revenue in the oil sands region, effective and efficient operation of the heavy equipment fleets in Australia and Canada and the implemented reductions of variable and fixed costs where necessary generated a strong EBITDA margin for Q2 2024. EBITDA margin for this quarter was relatively consistent with Q1 2024 and is reflective of the underlying consistent business of our heavy equipment fleets.
Depreciation of our equipment fleet was 14.3% of revenue in the quarter but when factoring out the one-time loss on disposal, averaged 12.8% for the quarter. Depreciation as a percentage of revenue was 17.7% for the Heavy Equipment - Canada fleet which was higher than our historical average as increased customer demand for heavy equipment rentals has changed the revenue profile. The Heavy Equipment - Australia fleet, which averaged approximately 9.4% of revenue, was driven by MacKellar and reflected both productive operations in the quarter as well as the depreciation of fair market values allocated upon purchase. On a combined basis, depreciation averaged 13.4% of combined revenue in the quarter as the lower capital intensity in Fargo and Nuna joint ventures modestly reduced the ratio.
General and administrative expenses (excluding stock-based compensation) were $12.8 million, or 4.6% of revenue, compared to $7.2 million, or 3.7% of revenue in Q2 2023. The increase in expenses reflects the acquisition of the MacKellar Group. The increase as a percentage of revenue, in particular from the Q1 rate of 3.8%, equally reflects both the lower revenue in the quarter but also the impacts of higher accounting, audit and legal costs associated with the added first-year integration of the MacKellar acquisition.
Cash related interest expense for the quarter was $13.6 million at an average cost of debt of 7.0%, compared to 6.9% in Q2 2023, as rates posted by the Bank of Canada directly impact our Credit Facility and have a delayed impact on the rates for secured equipment-backed financing. Total interest expense was $14.3 million in the quarter, compared to $7.5 million in Q2 2023 based on the debt financing incurred upon acquisition of the MacKellar Group on October 1, 2023.
Adjusted earnings per share ("EPS") of $0.78 on adjusted net earnings of $20.8 million was up 66% from the prior year figure of $0.47, consistent with the adjusted EBIT performance which was up 102.1% quarter over quarter. As mentioned above, the step-changes in interest from the MacKellar acquisition offset EBIT performance with the effective income tax rates being comparable for both quarters. Weighted-average common shares levels for the second quarters of 2024 and 2023 were relatively stable at 26,730,049 and 26,409,357, respectively, net of shares classified as treasury shares.
Free cash flow for the three months ended June 30, 2024, was a use of cash of $1.5 million. Adjusted EBITDA of $86.9 million less sustaining capital additions of $37.3 million and cash interest expense of $13.6 million generated $36.0 million of cash flow in the quarter. The difference of $37.5 million is primarily related to increases in working capital ($9.9 million) and capital work in progress ($18.2 million) balances.

Basis of Presentation
We have prepared our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US GAAP"). Unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts discussed are in Canadian dollars. Please see the Management’s Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, for further detail on the matters discussed in this release. In addition to the MD&A, please reference the dedicated Q2 2024 Results Presentation for more information on our results and projections which can be found on our website under Investors - Presentations.
Change in significant accounting policy - Basis of presentation
During the first quarter of 2024, we changed our accounting policy for the elimination of our proportionate share of profit from downstream sales to affiliates and joint ventures to record through equity earnings in affiliates and joint ventures on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Prior to this change, we eliminated our proportionate share of profit on downstream sales to affiliates and joint ventures through revenue and cost of sales. The change in accounting policy simplifies the presentation for downstream profit eliminations and has no cumulative impact on retained earnings. We have accounted for the change retrospectively in accordance with the requirements of US GAAP Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 250 by restating the comparative period. For details of retrospective changes, refer to note 16 in the Financial Statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release presents certain non-GAAP financial measures because management believes that they may be useful to investors in analyzing our business performance, leverage and liquidity. The non-GAAP financial measures we present include "adjusted EBIT", "adjusted EBITDA", "adjusted EBITDA margin", "adjusted EPS", "adjusted net earnings", "capital additions", "capital work in progress", "cash provided by operating activities prior to change in working capital", "combined gross profit", "combined gross profit margin", "equity investment EBIT", "free cash flow", "general and administrative expenses (excluding stock-based compensation)", "gross profit margin", "growth capital", "margin", "net debt", "sustaining capital", "total capital liquidity", "total combined revenue", and "total debt". A non-GAAP financial measure is defined by relevant regulatory authorities as a numerical measure of an issuer's historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flow that is not specified, defined or determined under the issuer’s GAAP and that is not presented in an issuer’s financial statements. These non-GAAP measures do not have any standardized meaning and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Each non-GAAP financial measure used in this press release is defined and reconciled to its most directly comparable GAAP measure in the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of our Management’s Discussion and Analysis filed concurrently with this press release.
