First Quarter Financial Summary

First Quarter Operational Analysis

Support Services

Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $234.0 million, an increase of 17.7% over Q1 2025, primarily driven by strong camp occupancy including the Right Choice camps acquired in Q3 2025, and organic growth related to new contracts.

Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $24.4 million, an increase of 29.1% over Q1 2025, and is attributable to the same factors mentioned above as well as Adjusted EBITDA from PVC of $1.5 million (40% interest acquired in Q3 2025). Adjusted EBITDA margin for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was 10.4% compared to 9.5% in Q1 2025. Adjusted EBITDA margin excluding the equity accounted investment in PVC was 9.8%. Adjusted EBITDA margins are expected to exceed 9% over the long term.

Asset Based Services

Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $41.4 million, an increase of 1.2% over Q1 2025, driven by higher workforce structure revenue and utilization of equipment including the use of the Right Choice assets, partially offset by lower camp installation and demobilization activity which varies based on timing of projects.

Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $15.8 million, an increase of 17.6% over Q1 2025. Adjusted EBITDA margin for Q1 2026 was 38.2% compared to 32.9% in Q1 2025. Adjusted EBITDA and margins were higher in Q1 2026 reflecting increased rental activity which generates higher margins compared to installation and demobilization activity. Adjusted EBITDA margins for this segment in the future are expected to remain between 30% and 40% depending on the mix of business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net debt was $224.6 million at March 31, 2026 compared to $199.7 million at December 31, 2025. The increase in Net Debt was primarily driven by higher working capital requirements, income tax payments related to 2025 of $11.0 million, share based compensation liabilities of $6.7 million settled in Q1 2026, and the impact of the fire incident previously discussed, as equipment replacement and camp installation for the site commenced ahead of the receipt of insurance proceeds.

The Net Debt at March 31, 2026 was 1.7x Adjusted EBITDA, demonstrating our commitment to maintaining a strong balance sheet and financial flexibility. We expect to continue to maximize FCF conversion targeting greater than 50% of Adjusted EBITDA on an annual basis with Net Debt expected to further reduce in fiscal 2026, absent acquisitions.
