Financial Highlights

The company's gross profit for the third quarter of 2023 was $115.4 million, a 16% increase from $99.9 million in the third quarter of 2022. However, net income for the third quarter of 2023 was $13.3 million, down from $16.1 million in the third quarter of 2022. The decrease in net income was impacted by increases in amortization from acquisitions, acquisition-related costs, interest expense, and income tax benefits, as well as lower margins in the LNG business, driven by project timing.

Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2023 was $37.8 million, a 5% increase from $36.0 million in the third quarter of 2022. The GAAP EPS for the third quarter of 2023 was $0.86 per share, compared to $1.05 per share in the third quarter of 2022. The adjusted EPS for the third quarter of 2023 was $1.51 per share, slightly higher than $1.50 per share in the third quarter of 2022.

Performance Analysis

NV5 Global Inc (NASDAQ:NVEE) has shown strong performance in the third quarter of 2023, with record revenues and a significant increase in gross profit. The company's geospatial business, clean energy, technology, data center, and international businesses all contributed to this strong performance. The company's acquisition of Red Technologies expanded its international footprint and capitalized on the universal demand for data centers.

However, the decrease in net income indicates that the company faced challenges in managing its costs, particularly related to acquisitions, interest expense, and income tax benefits. The lower margins in the LNG business, driven by project timing, also impacted the company's net income.

Looking Ahead

Looking forward, NV5 Global Inc (NASDAQ:NVEE) is well-positioned to achieve its goal of a $1 billion revenue run rate by the end of next year. The company has a record backlog of $833 million and expects to see continued growth in its infrastructure business. The company's full-year guidance anticipates gross revenues between $860 million and $868 million.

Despite the challenges faced in the third quarter, the company's strong performance in revenue growth and gross profit indicates a positive outlook for the future.
