1 Main Capital made the following comment about Limbach Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:LMB) in its second quarter 2023 investor letter:
"The Fund’s Q1’23 letter outlined my reasoning for reinitiating a core position in Limbach Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:LMB), a HVAC–focused specialty contractor. The company has historically sold most of its work through general contractors but has been transitioning towards building owners. I continue to be impressed by the new CEO’s vision for the existing business and future M&A opportunity.
LMB has a net cash balance sheet and is currently benefiting from a strong demand environment, allowing it to be even more selective with new engagements (higher quality, higher margin projects). It is using this environment to be long-term greedy by developing and strengthening its relationships with the types of customers who most highly value LMB’s expertise–operators of mission-critical infrastructure.
I expect LMB to continue expanding margins meaningfully over the next few years, while deploying its FCF into highly accretive M&A.
Reason for mispricing: Limbach is undergoing management change and transformation towards an owner-direct model, with an underappreciated opportunity to consolidate its industry at attractive valuations."
