THIRD QUARTER OF 2023 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
- Revenues and net revenues for the quarter reached $3.60 billion and $2.73 billion, up 24.2% and 24.7%, respectively, compared to the third quarter of 2022. Net revenue organic growth of 6.7% in the quarter, attributable to all reportable segments. The acquisition of the Environment & Infrastructure business (“E&I”) of John Wood Group plc (the “E&I Acquisition”) was the main driver of acquisition growth of 15.3%.
- Backlog as at September 30, 2023 stood at $14.3 billion, representing 12.1 months of revenues(1). Organic order intake in the third quarter was $4.0 billion, while organic growth in the first nine months of 2023 was 7.2%.
- Adjusted EBITDA in the quarter grew to $521.5 million, compared to $407.0 million in the third quarter of 2022, an increase of 28.1%.
- Adjusted EBITDA margin for the quarter increased by 50 bps to 19.1%, compared to 18.6% in the third quarter of 2022. In the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, adjusted EBITDA margin increased by 30 bps to 17.2%.
- Earnings before net financing expense and income taxes in the quarter stood at $292.7 million, up $56.3 million compared to the third quarter of 2022, mainly due to higher adjusted EBITDA.
- Adjusted net earnings for the quarter was $246.4 million, or $1.98 per share, up $53.0 million and $0.39, respectively, compared to the third quarter of 2022. The respective increases in these metrics are mainly attributable to a higher adjusted EBITDA, partially offset by higher interest on long-term debt.
- Net earnings attributable to shareholders for the quarter stood at $156.2 million, or $1.25 per share, compared to $127.5 million and $1.05 per share in Q3 2022. The increases are mainly attributable to higher adjusted EBITDA, partially offset by higher interest on long-term debt and income taxes, as well as increased amortization of intangible assets due to recent acquisitions.
- Cash inflows from operating activities were $209.7 million in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, compared to $207.4 million in the first nine months of 2022. Free cash outflow was $177.2 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, affected by the continued impact of higher income taxes due to changes in tax regulation in the US which delays the deductibility of certain expenses.
- Net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio stood at 1.9x, compared to 1.6x as at December 31, 2022. The increase is mainly due to a higher net debt balance used to finance recent acquisitions. Incorporating a full twelve months of adjusted EBITDA of all acquired businesses, the net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio would be 1.8x.
- Quarterly dividend declared of $0.375 per share, or $46.7 million.
- Financial outlook for 2023 updated in the Q2 2023 press release is reaffirmed.
“Our performance in the third quarter is aligned with our expectations and demonstrates the continued momentum and high demand for our services. We continue to achieve significant organic growth, and our backlog remains at record levels,” said Alexandre L’Heureux, President and CEO of WSP. “During the quarter, we celebrated an important milestone as it marked the one-year anniversary of welcoming our colleagues from the Environment & Infrastructure business of John Wood Group, a key addition to our global platform. We are reaffirming our financial outlook with confidence and will remain agile navigating fluid macroeconomic and geopolitical environments while executing our strategy with discipline and rigour.”

NON-IFRS AND OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURES
The Corporation reports its financial results in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). WSP uses a number of financial measures when assessing its results and measuring overall performance. Some of these financial measures are not calculated in accordance with IFRS. Regulation 52-112 respecting Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure (“Regulation 52-112”) prescribes disclosure requirements that apply to the following types of measures used by the Corporation: (i) non-IFRS financial measures; (ii) non-IFRS ratios; (iii) total of segments measures; (iv) capital management measures; and (v) supplemental financial measures.
In this press release, the following non-IFRS and other financial measures are used by the Corporation: net revenues; adjusted EBITDA; adjusted EBITDA margin; adjusted net earnings; adjusted net earnings per share; backlog; free cash flow; days sales outstanding (“DSO”); and net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio. Additional details for these non-IFRS and other financial measures can be found in section 19, “Glossary of segment reporting, non-IFRS and other financial measures” of WSP’s MD&A for the quarter and nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, which is posted on WSP’s website at www.wsp.com and filed on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. Reconciliations of non-IFRS financial measures and total of segments measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measures are provided below.
Management believes that these non-IFRS and other financial measures provide useful information to investors regarding the Corporation’s financial condition and results of operations as they provide key metrics of its performance. These non-IFRS and other financial measures are not recognized under IFRS, do not have any standardized meanings prescribed under IFRS and may differ from similar computations as reported by other issuers, and accordingly may not be comparable. These measures should not be viewed as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS.
