THE WOODLANDS, Texas - Target Hospitality Corp. (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:TH), a leading provider of modular accommodations and hospitality services in North America, reported fourth-quarter earnings that surpassed analyst expectations. The company recorded a fourth-quarter EPS of $0.29, exceeding the analyst estimate of $0.25. Revenue for the quarter was $126.22 million, also topping the consensus estimate of $118 million.
Compared to the same quarter last year, the company's revenue decreased from $152.44 million, primarily due to lower non-cash, nonrecurring, infrastructure enhancement revenue associated with the company's Pecos Children's Center (PCC) community, which was fully amortized as of November 2023.
Despite the revenue decline, net income for the quarter increased to $37.8 million from $31.6 million in the previous year, driven by the change in fair value of warrant liabilities, lower interest expense, and lower income tax expense.
For the full year, Target Hospitality achieved a 12% increase in revenue, reaching $563.6 million compared to $501.98 million in the previous year. This growth was attributed to significant expansion in the Government segment due to the company's PCC community and continued strong customer demand across the company's Hospitality & Facilities Services - South segment.
President and CEO Brad Archer highlighted the company's efficient operating platform and the strategic enhancements made over the past years, which have supported the company's ability to match dynamic changes in customer demand while achieving financial goals. Archer expressed confidence in the company's financial position and its commitment to allocating capital towards high-return opportunities.
Looking forward, Target Hospitality has provided guidance for fiscal year 2024, projecting total revenue to be between $410 and $425 million, which is above the analyst consensus of $409.7 million. The company also anticipates adjusted EBITDA to be between $195 and $210 million and total capital spending to range from $25 to $30 million, excluding acquisitions.
Target Hospitality's robust financial performance and optimistic outlook for 2024 demonstrate the company's strong foundation for continued growth and value creation. The company's strategic focus on capital allocation and expansion of service offerings positions it well for the future, as it seeks to allocate over $500 million of net growth capital through 2027.
