(Thomson Reuters ONE) -


IRVING, Texas, May 15, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Forterra, Inc. ("Forterra" or
"the Company") (NASDAQ:FRTA), a leading manufacturer of water and drainage
infrastructure pipe and products in the United States and Eastern Canada, today
announced results for the quarter ended March 31, 2017.

First Quarter 2017 Results

First quarter 2017 net sales increased to $338.3 million, compared to $187.0
million in the prior year quarter. This sales growth is attributable to the
impact of acquisitions that increased net sales by $163.0 million. Drainage Pipe
& Products ("Drainage") net sales improved to $160.4 million, compared to $144.3
million in the prior year quarter, due to $20.1 million of net sales from
acquisitions. The decline in net sales excluding acquisitions was due to a more
typical winter in Q1 2017 and the impact of heavy rain and flooding in
California compared to unseasonably warm weather in the northern regions in Q1
2016. Water Pipe & Products ("Water") net sales more than tripled to $177.8
million, compared to $40.5 million in the prior year quarter, due to net sales
from our acquisition of U.S. Pipe of $142.9 million. Net sales excluding
acquisitions was impacted by lower average sales prices as well as customer and
weather related project delays in the concrete and steel pressure pipe portion
of the Water business.

Drainage gross profit was $17.4 million compared to $30.5 million in the prior
year quarter.  Water gross profit increased to $22.2 million from $6.0 million.
The key factors affecting gross profit for the two segments during the quarter
are included in the discussion of EBITDA1 and Adjusted EBITDA1.

First quarter 2017 had a consolidated net loss of $22.5 million, or $(0.35) loss
per share, compared to a net loss of $3.9 million in the prior year quarter, due
to the impact of lower gross profit as a percentage of sales and higher SG&A




costs as a percentage of sales.  Adjusted net loss1 was $19.7 million compared
to Adjusted net income1 of $1.0 million in the prior year quarter.

EBITDA2 and Adjusted EBITDA1 for the fourth quarter were $7.4 million and $11.9
million, respectively, compared to $15.9 million and $20.9 million,
respectively, in the prior year quarter. The decline in Adjusted EBITDA1 was
attributable to lower adjusted EBITDA from the Drainage segment, partially
offset by higher acquisition-driven Adjusted EBITDA1 from the Water segment, and
higher SG&A as a percentage of sales. The increase in SG&A was due primarily to
higher professional fees associated with the integration of acquisitions and the
cost savings initiatives announced by the Company on its fourth quarter 2016
results call.

Drainage Pipe & Products EBITDA2 and Adjusted EBITDA1 were $11.4 million and
$12.8 million, respectively, compared to $27.9 million and $29.1 million in the
prior year quarter, respectively.

The average sales prices of products in the Drainage segment declined due
primarily to increased competition in the Houston, Texas market. Net sales and
gross margin declined due to heavy rainfall in California combined with colder
weather in the Northern and Midwest regions as compared to an unusually warm
first quarter of 2016. Cost of goods sold increased due to higher labor, freight
and raw materials costs and due to the start-up of a new precast plant that had
lower cost absorption during the ramp in operations of the plant. The first
quarter 2016 results do not include rent expense of approximately $3.8 million
per quarter associated with the sale-leaseback transaction that closed in April
2016.

Water Pipe & Products EBITDA2 and Adjusted EBITDA1 increased to $17.1 million
and $17.8 million, respectively, compared to $4.2 million for both metrics in
the prior year quarter. The first quarter 2017 Water segment results included
the benefit of the transformative April 2016 acquisition of U.S. Pipe. The
ductile iron pipe portion of the Water segment was impacted by higher scrap
prices that reduced gross margin for the quarter. The concrete and steel
pressure pipe portion of the Water segment was also impacted by project delays
that caused a decline in net sales and lower average selling prices.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity
At  March 31, 2017, the Company had cash of $27.5 million and borrowings under
its credit agreements of $1.26 billion. Availability under the Company's asset
based revolving credit facility as of March 31, 2017 was $68.1 million.

On May 1, 2017, the Company entered into an Amendment to its $1.05 billion
Senior Lien Term Loan Credit Agreement that resulted in a repricing of the
facility from LIBOR + 350 basis points to LIBOR + 300 basis points and the
incurrence of an incremental $200 million term loan with terms matching the
existing credit agreement.  The majority of the net proceeds from the term loan
upsize of approximately $197 million were used to pay down the revolving credit
facility.

Long-term Margin Enhancement Plan Reaffirmed
The Company continued work on its previously announced initiatives that are
expected to drive a four hundred basis point increase in income from operations
as a percentage of sales by 2019 as compared to full year 2016 results.  The
Company invested in the retention of strategic consultants to assist with the
development and implementation of an efficient plan to achieve margin expansion
and cost reduction initiatives, including a national procurement plan, freight
optimization and SG&A cost reductions. These collective initiatives are expected
to contribute towards Forterra's ability to achieve its full year 2019 target of
a 400 basis point expansion in income from operations as a percentage of sales
as compared to full year 2016.  These initiatives are expected to require
significant investment, including professional fees, most of which the Company
believes are being incurred in the first half of 2017.  The Company expects some
of the benefits to begin to contribute to improved performance starting in the
second half of 2017.

Second Quarter 2017 Financial Outlook
While the Company does not anticipate providing an annual or quarterly guidance
going forward, given the significant change to its expectations for the first
half of 2017, additional perspective is being furnished at this time. The
Company expects that net income for the second quarter of 2017 will range from
$3.0 million to $10.0 million and adjusted EBITDA will range from $50.0 million
to $60.0 million. The range reflects market factors that impacted the business
in first quarter 2017 that are expected to continue to weigh on second quarter
2017. These include project delays in the concrete and steel pressure pipe
product group and ongoing competitive pressures in Houston.  The Company also
expects to incur higher costs of raw materials, freight and labor that will not
be offset by recently implemented price increases until the second half of
2017. Finally, the Company expects costs associated with its growth and margin
enhancing initiatives, ongoing integration activities and Sarbanes-Oxley Act
compliance to result in lower year over year results in the first half of 2017.
The Company does not expect these factors to materially impact results in the
second half of 2017 as the Company benefits from announced price increases.

CEO Commentary
Forterra CEO Jeff Bradley commented, "Our financial performance is disappointing
this quarter, but we do not believe it is representative of the long-term
strength of our business and our competitive position in the industry.  Our
earnings results for the quarter were impacted by a number of factors that
unfortunately will persist through the second quarter of 2017. I continue to
believe that the second half of the year will be in line with our previous
expectations reflecting the benefit of announced price increases and sales that
shifted from the first half of the year."

Mr. Bradley continued, "Following a year of significant acquisitions in 2016 and
early 2017 that helped us to build the foundation of our business, we are
focused on integration and execution of our initiatives that we expect will
drive efficiency and transform the business. While this will require additional
investment and time, we expect that the effort should result in sustained top-
line growth, margin expansion and cost savings. We are fully committed to these
initiatives."

Additional Statistics

(unaudited)

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to our results calculated under generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States ("GAAP"), in this earnings release we also
present adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin.
Adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP
measures and have been presented in this earnings release as supplemental
measures of financial performance that are not required by, or presented in
accordance with GAAP. We calculate adjusted net income as net income (loss)
after adjusting for impairment and restructuring charges, (gains)/losses on the
sale of property, plant and equipment and certain other income and expenses,
such as transaction costs, carve-out costs related to our separation from
HeidelbergCement and costs associated with disposed sites and including
normalized income tax expense for the adjustments to  net income (loss). We
calculate adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, income
tax benefit (expense), depreciation and amortization and before impairment and
restructuring charges, (gains)/losses on the sale of property, plant and
equipment and certain other income and expenses, such as transaction costs,
carve-out costs related to our separation from HeidelbergCement and costs
associated with disposed sites. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents adjusted
EBITDA as a percentage of net sales.

Adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are presented in
this earnings release because they are important metrics used by management as
one of the means by which it assesses our financial performance. Adjusted net
income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are also frequently used by
analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our
industry. We use adjusted  net  income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA
margin as supplements to GAAP measures of performance to evaluate the
effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to
allocate resources and to compare our performance relative to our peers.
Adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are also
important measures for assessing our operating results and evaluating each
operating segment's performance on a consistent basis, by excluding the impacts
of depreciation, amortization, income tax expense, interest expense and other
items not indicative of ongoing operating performance. Additionally, these
measures, when used in conjunction with related GAAP financial measures, provide
investors with additional financial analytical framework which management uses,
in addition to historical operating results, as the basis for financial,
operational and planning decisions and present measurements that third parties
have indicated are useful in assessing the Company and its results of
operations.

Adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin have certain
limitations. Adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as
alternatives to consolidated net income, and in the case of our segment results,
adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to EBITDA, which the
CODM reviews for purposes of evaluating segment profit, or in the case of any of
the non-GAAP measures, as a substitute for any other measure of financial
performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. Similarly, adjusted EBITDA
margin should not be considered as an alternative to gross margin or any other
margin calculated in accordance with GAAP. These measures also should not be
construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual
or nonrecurring items for which these non-GAAP measures make adjustments.
Additionally, adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin
are not intended to be liquidity measures because of certain limitations such
as: (i) they do not reflect our cash outlays for capital expenditures or future
contractual commitments; (ii) they do not reflect changes in, or cash
requirements for, working capital; (iii) they do not reflect interest expense,
or the cash requirements necessary to service interest, or principal payments,
on indebtedness; (iv) they do not reflect income tax expense or the tax
necessary to pay income taxes; and (v) although depreciation and amortization
are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have
to be replaced in the future, and these non-GAAP measures do not reflect cash
requirements for such replacements.

Other companies, including other companies in our industry, may not use such
measures or may calculate one or more of the measures differently than as
presented in this earnings release, limiting their usefulness as a comparative
measure. In evaluating adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA
margin, you should be aware that  in the future we will incur expenses that are
the same as or similar to some of the adjustments made in the calculations below
and the presentation of adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA
margin should not be construed to mean that our future results will be
unaffected by such adjustments. Management compensates for these limitations by
using adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin as
supplemental  financial metrics and in conjunction with results prepared in
accordance with GAAP.
