Item2.02. Results of Operation and Financial
Condition.
On April26, 2017, ASV filed an amended registration statement on
Form S-1 (File No.333-216912) (the Registration Statement) with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Registration
Statement included certain preliminary financial results for ASV
for the three months ended March31, 2017 (the Preliminary
Financial Data), which is also set forth below. The Preliminary
Financial Data has been prepared by, and is the responsibility
of, ASVs management. UHY LLP, the Companys and ASVs independent
registered public accounting firm, has not audited, reviewed,
compiled or performed any procedures with respect to the
Preliminary Financial Data. Accordingly, UHY LLP does not express
an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect thereto.
ASV is currently in the process of finalizing its financial
results for the three months ended March31, 2017. Based on
preliminary unaudited information and management estimates for
the three months ended March31, 2017, ASV expects:
|
revenue of $26.0 million to $28.0 million (compared to $28.5 million during the three months ended March31, 2016); |
|
operating income of $0.8 million to $1.1 million (compared to $1.0 million during the three months ended March31, 2016); |
|
GAAP net income of $0.0 million to $0.2 million (compared to net loss of $0.3 million during the three months ended March31, 2016); |
|
EBITDA of $2.0 million to $2.3 million (compared to $2.3 million during the three months ended March31, 2016); |
|
adjusted EBITDA of $2.2 million to $2.4 million (compared to adjusted EBITDA of $2.3 million during the three months ended March31, 2016); |
|
adjusted EBITDA to be 8.6% of net revenues (compared to 7.9% during the three months ended March31, 2016); |
|
revenues from sales of machines to be $18.7 million (compared to $16.8 million during the three months ended March31, 2016); |
|
revenues from sales of machines through Terex distribution channels to be 5.2% of total revenues from sales of machines (compared to 48.1% during the three months ended March31, 2016); and |
|
growth in revenues from sales of machines through our North American distribution channels to be 93% compared to the three months ended March31, 2016. |
ASV provided ranges for its preliminary results because its
financial closing procedures for the three months ended March31,
2017 are not yet complete. The above information was not prepared
by ASV with a view toward complying with the guidelines
established by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants with respect to projected financial information, but,
in the view of ASVs management, was prepared on a reasonable
basis, reflects the best currently available estimates and
judgments, and presents, to the best of ASVs managements
knowledge and belief, ASVs expectations for the three months
ended March31, 2017. However, the preliminary results are subject
to change during the completion of ASVs financial closing
procedures, final adjustments and other developments that may
arise between now and the time the financial results for the
first quarter are finalized. Therefore, ASVs actual results for
the three months ended March31, 2017 may differ materially from
the above information as a result of, among other things, the
important factors discussed under Risk Factors and elsewhere in
the Registration Statement.
The table below sets forth a reconciliation of ASVs net income to
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March31,
2017:
