Meadow Valley Corporation (NASDAQ:MVCO) today announced financial results for the third quarter and first nine months of 2006. "The cyclical dynamics in the construction industry are evident in Meadow Valley's third quarter results, with a slowdown in the materials segment related to the sharper-than-expected decline in residential construction in our core Phoenix and Las Vegas area markets offset by an increase in our construction services segment driven by higher contract backlog," said Bradley Larson, Chief Executive Officer. "Construction services backlog at September 30, 2006, was $100.7 million, compared to $73.9 million a year earlier and $71.6 million at the end of this year's second quarter. Because of the recent 33% increase in our bonding capacity to $200 million, a direct result of increased working capital of $6.5 million raised in our private equity sale completed on October 23, 2006, we believe we are well positioned to actively participate in the more than $500 million of new projects scheduled for bid in our target markets over the next few months," Larson added. Third Quarter Results For the three months ended September 30, 2006, consolidated revenue increased 9.8% to $51.7 million compared to $47.1 million for the third quarter of 2005. Construction services revenue increased 9.5% to $31.0 million compared to $28.3 million for last year's third quarter. Construction materials revenue increased 9.2% to $20.5 million from $18.7 million a year ago, reflecting a 16.4% increase in average sales price and a 5% decrease in units sold. Revenue from the Company's new construction materials testing segment, which began operations in the second quarter of 2006, was $0.2 million for this year's third quarter. Consolidated gross margin declined to 7.8% for the third quarter of 2006 versus 9.6% for the third quarter of 2005. Construction services gross margin was 6.7% compared to 7.4% last year. Construction materials gross margin was 9.4% compared to 13.0%, reflecting the decrease in unit volumes and higher costs associated with capacity expansion. General and administrative expenses increased to $2.4 million for the third quarter of 2006 compared to $1.8 million a year earlier. The primary reason for this increase was a $0.04 million credit for bad debt expense in this year's third quarter compared to a $0.4 million credit last year. Net income after minority interest for the third quarter of 2006 was $0.9 million, or $0.20 per diluted share. This compares to net income after minority interest for the third quarter of 2005 of $1.6 million, or $0.39 per share. Meadow Valley's construction materials subsidiary, Ready Mix, Inc. (AMEX:RMX), completed an initial public offering of its common stock in August 2005. Meadow Valley currently owns approximately 2.0 million shares, or approximately 53%, of the outstanding common stock of RMI. Accordingly, RMI's operating results are consolidated in Meadow Valley's financial statements for financial reporting purposes. At September 30, 2006, Meadow Valley reported working capital of $21.3 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $27.4 million. Shareholders' equity increased to $22.8 million compared to $19.8 million at December 31, 2005. Nine Months Results For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, consolidated revenue increased to $145.8 million from $140.5 million for the first nine months of 2005. Construction services revenue decreased to $80.9 million from $90.4 million for last year's first nine months. Construction materials revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, increased to $64.5 million from $50.1 million for the same period in 2005. Consolidated gross margin for the first nine months of 2006 increased to 9.3% compared to 7.2% for the same period of 2005. Net income after minority interest for the first nine months of 2006 was $2.6 million, or $0.59 per diluted share. This compares to net income after minority interest for the first nine months of 2005 of $2.9 million, or $0.71 per diluted share.
