For the first quarter of 2021:

  • Revenue for the first quarter of 2021 was $383.6 million, an increase of $28.7 million, or 8.1%, over the first quarter of 2020. The revenue growth came from acquisitions in the amount of 10.4%, offset by an organic revenue decline of 0.7% and a negative exchange rate effect of 1.6%. The organic decline was driven by COVID-19 pandemic related impacts.

  • Net income was $13.1 million or $0.57 per share compared to $4.3 million or $0.20 per share in Q1 2020.
  • Acquisition of The BPAC Group Inc. ("BP") closed on January 1, 2021, the integration is progressing well and is being implemented according to plan.
  • Long-term debt increased by $20.9 million from $168.7 million on December 31, 2020 to $189.6 million on March 31, 2021 while cash, net of bank indebtedness, also increased by $24.0 million over the same period. Excluding the BP acquisition, long-term debt, net of cash and bank indebtedness, decreased by $48.9 million.

_____________________________

1  The terms "Adjusted EBITDA" and "Adjusted EBITDA Margin" do not have standardized definitions prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards and therefore, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. "Adjusted EBITDA" is defined as operating income before depreciation and amortization, Canadian Emergency Wage Subsidy and related expenses, transaction, reorganization and other costs and share-based compensation. The Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by revenues. For more details and for a reconciliation of that measure to the most directly comparable IFRS measure, consult the "Operating and Financial Results" section of the Company's Management Discussion & Analysis (MD&A).

For the first quarters of 2021 and 2020, the business segments performed as follows:

GDI's Janitorial Canada segment had a strong quarter, recording $133.9 million in revenue representing an organic decline of 3.8%, while delivering $22.0 million in Adjusted EBITDA1, an increase of 134.6% over Q1 2020. GDI's Janitorial USA segment also performed well in Q1 2021, recording revenue of $79.9 million representing organic growth of 1.9% and Adjusted EBITDA1 of $7.7 million, an increase of 25.9% over Q1 2020. The Janitorial Canada and Janitorial USA segments started 2021 on the same operating basis as experienced during the second half of 2020, with several clients operating facilities at lower-than-normal capacity levels, but many clients requiring enhanced recurring services and specialty services due to the COVID-19 pandemic including higher frequency cleaning and disinfection services. We see this trend continuing in our cleaning businesses while COVID-19 remains a threat within society, particularly in Canada given the elevated COVID-19 pandemic cases levels being experienced in a number of regions.

The Technical services segment, which is GDI's business that has been most negatively impacted by COVID-19, continues to recover from the pandemic low experienced during the second quarter of 2020. During Q1 2021, this segment recorded Adjusted EBITDA1 of $6.3 million, or an Adjusted EBITDA margin1 of 4.0%, in-line with its historical first quarter performance which is seasonally the businesses weakest quarter.

Finally, GDI's Complementary services segment recorded a decrease in Adjusted EBITDA1 and Adjusted EBITDA margin1 in Q1 2021 as compared to the prior year. While this segment continued to experience a higher level of demand for personal protective equipment, it is operating in a more balanced supply/demand environment than was experienced at the onset of the pandemic, and it experienced a decrease in demand for day-to-day cleaning supplies as a result of significantly low occupancy rates during the first quarter of 2021.

"I am very pleased with GDI's performance during Q1 2021," stated Claude Bigras, President & CEO of GDI. "The COVID-19 pandemic continued to affect the Company during the first quarter of 2021, with each business segment being impacted differently based on their respective geographies, service offerings and end-market mix. As we have done since the pandemic began, all our business units have been working closely with clients to ensure that their facilities are safe environments for occupants. We expect that as long as COVID-19 remains a risk to our society our Janitorial business segments will continue to perform well as our clients look to GDI for expertise and enhanced support to keep their facilities safe. Ainsworth, our Technical Services business, has been progressively recovering from the wide-spread pandemic shutdowns experienced in Q2 2020. As facilities reoccupy, we expect that there will be growing market demand for improved air quality within facilities, and as the largest HVAC services provider and largest non-OEM building automation systems integrator in Canada, Ainsworth is well positioned to benefit from such demand. Finally, our Complementary Services segment faced some challenges during the first quarter as building occupancy was quite low, but we are well positioned to perform better in the upcoming quarters", added Mr. Bigras.

"We continue to be very enthusiastic about our acquisition of BP on January 1, 2021. Together, BP and Ainsworth are now a major building system and multi-trade facility services provider in the Northeast USA. We have already begun consolidating Ainsworth's U.S. operations under the BP management team, and we are now focusing on growing this platform alongside our cleaning services platform in the U.S. market with the goal of making GDI a true one-stop shop for both today and tomorrow's buildings in the Midwestern and Northeastern United States. Our financial position is stronger than it has ever been, which reinforces our ability to continue to focus on our growth strategy through acquisition and capitalize on strategic opportunities as they arise", concluded Mr. Bigras.
