Smith-Midland Still Deserves Caution Despite Continued Strong Growth

Summary Smith-Midland Corporation remains a 'Hold' as valuation is not yet compelling despite strong operational growth. Revenue grew 19% to $93.4 million, with barrier rentals surging 63.9%, driven by special projects and increased rental utilization. Profitability improved significantly, with net income up to $12.5 million and EBITDA reaching $19.9 million, but backlog declined to $53.1 million. SMID trades below peers on EV/EBITDA, but economic uncertainty and shrinking backlog warrant continued caution before upgrading. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Smith-Midland: Volatility And Price Make This Prospect Unappealing

Summary Smith-Midland Corporation's stock is downgraded to a 'sell' due to volatile results and high valuation compared to similar firms. Despite revenue growth from $50.1 million in 2022 to $59.6 million in 2023, net profits remained flat at $0.8 million. The company's backlog dropped from $64.6 million in Q1 2024 to $59.2 million, indicating potential revenue normalization. Shares are expensive even under optimistic assumptions, making Smith-Midland a less attractive investment opportunity. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Smith-Midland Is A Good Company But It Is Extremely Overvalued

Summary SMID manufactures precast products, particularly for transportation infrastructure. The company enjoys a small moat in a competitive industry, has low capital requirements and no debt. SMID has shown that it is able to grow revenues following increases in government spending, and even to grow its share of that market. However, I believe that the company's stock is so highly priced that even under the most optimistic scenarios it is overvalued. If the optimistic scenarios do not materialize, the stock provides no margin of safety, in my opinion. Smith-Midland (SMID) is a manufacturer of precast concrete products, including walls, highway protection barriers and sound blocking barriers. The company operates in a competitive industry, with a little help from patented products. However, the company has been able to operate profitably for most of its history. SMID has also been able to more than double its revenues in the past two decades. SMID does not have a lot of debt and has been able to generate interesting cash flows, with low working capital or PP&E requirements. That is, SMID is a good company. However, for reasons that I cannot grasp, the company trades at what I consider an unjustifiable, extremely high price. Even under the most positive circumstances, I believe there is no way SMID can generate a level of business that is consistent with their current valuation. Note: Unless otherwise stated, all information has been obtained from SMID's filings with the SEC. Precast industry characteristics The precast industry is a low moat, high competition industry. The reasons are its low barriers to entry and the technical competence of its customers. Beginning with barriers to entry, precast is not a capital intensive industry like cement manufacturing is. Please don't get me wrong, precast manufacturers do need factories, but their cost is not even comparable to that of a cement manufacturer. With manufacturing processes that are free for public use, anyone with some capital can join the business. There are multiple products that can be manufactured by precasting concrete, the National Precast Concrete Association (NPCA) lists almost a hundred. That means some manufacturers can build a niche in specific applications. Precast is also affected by logistic costs, being a heavy product. That means that companies can build some moat by being close to their customers. Competitors may not be able to compete because their logistic costs are higher. In the case of SMID, the company has three manufacturing facilities, located in Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina. The map below, obtained from the NPCA, is filtered to show only NPCA certified manufacturers of walls and highway barriers, SMID's two core products. The map shows that even in its home states, the company faces competition, and even more so outside of them. NPCA certified manufacturers of precast walls and highway barriers (National Precast Concrete Association) A second factor generating competition in the industry is that its customers are technically competent. Contractors purchase precast to apply in their construction projects. The purchase process is probably led by engineers that have a suite of metrics to compare the relative value of each competitor's products. SMID has tried to fight these factors (low barriers to entry and metric based competition) by developing patented products. These include Slender Wall, a precast wall for building construction, and J-J Hooks, a highway barrier, the company's star product. According to SMID these products enjoy enhanced technical characteristics that make installation easier and durable. The company also has trademarks or patents for its other product lines. These patented products do enjoy some competitive power. SMID has licensed them to several manufacturers in other US and abroad (Australia, Belgium, New Zealand and Trinidad). The company charges between 4% to 6% on sales as royalties. In 2021, SMID received $2.2 million in royalties, which would translate to approximately $44 million in products sold by its licensees. Finally, most of SMID's products are sold on a non recurring basis. Walls, highway barriers, sound barriers and precast buildings are all sold on a project by project basis. Each project can represent a significant portion of that year's revenues. This means that the product mix is also changing constantly. All in all, the dynamics of the industry affect SMID, whose gross profit margins have been relatively low and also variable, as the chart below shows. Data by YCharts Smith-Midland's cost and financial structure As the chart below shows, SMID's has been able to consistently grow revenues. Even during the financial crisis, the company was able to keep a consistent level of revenues. In the meantime, SMID was able to grow its gross profits, albeit these present higher variability because of product mix changes. Data by YCharts Variable gross margins generate substantial operating leverage at the operating income level. SMID's SG&A costs are not enormous, averaging 20% of revenue since the 2000s. The problem is that the 20% figure is too close to the company's gross margin. The result is extremely variable operating income. Fortunately, the company has rarely been operationally unprofitable. Data by YCharts On a more positive note, SMID requires little PP&E expending and also a low level of inventories that are turned quickly. The company manufactures mostly after a contractor places an order. The jump in PP&E below is substantial and will be explained in a different section, but still, $22 million in net PP&E for a $50 million revenue company is not substantial. Data by YCharts This has generated a good cash flow structure, where SMID is able to convert operating income into FCF. Low levels of investment also allow the company to avoid substantial debt. Data by YCharts Dependence on government spending Some readers may have noticed a sudden increase in revenue, gross profits, operating income and net PP&E beginning in 2015. In my opinion, this increase was caused by increased infrastructure spending by the US government, but also by SMID's gaining market share. The two charts below show that the fastest growing product categories after 2015 were barriers and sound-walls. These categories are almost exclusively demanded by the federal, state and local governments (indirectly through contractors). They are used in transportation infrastructure projects, highways in particular. In the service field, the increase in installation and rentals is also associated with barriers, and therefore to transportation infrastructure. The fastest growth stage for these services starts in 2018, cannibalizing a significant portion of barrier sales. The increase in barrier rental explains the jump in net PP&E, as barriers that are rented are considered company property. SMID's revenue by product and service (SMID's filings with the SEC) As the chart below shows, there has definitely been a significant increase in transportation construction since 2010 in the US. However, transportation construction spending and SMID's revenues do not go hand in hand. Between 2012 and 2014, spending grew but SMID's revenues decreased. Since 2015, SMID's revenues started growing before spending did. This all signals that although construction spending has become an important driver for SMID's business, the company can both lose and gain market share in this industry as well. Data by YCharts Going forward, an extreme valuation As a summary, I commented that the precast industry is relatively prone to rivalry, based on its low barriers to entrance and competent customers. Some protection against rivalry can be provided by geographic location (transportation costs) and patents.

Smith-Midland: The Triple Play - Macro Tailwinds, Governmental Mandates, And A Fundamental Business Shift

SMID is a precast concrete manufacturer that is positioned to capitalize on both macro-economic and governmental tailwinds that are afoot in their two main business lines, SlenderWall and J-J Hooks. SlenderWall is a precast modular wall panel for mid/high rise buildings that requires significantly less labor. J-J Hooks are freestanding moveable highway barriers that you see when highways are under construction. A major supply shortage of construction workers is forcing developers to find less-labor intensive ways of completing projects. We firmly believe this supply dynamic will lead them to SlenderWall. SMID recently shifted their J-J Hooks business from a lumpy sales-based business to a higher margin and recurring revenue rental-based business. SMID has expanded capacity from 30K ft. in 2015 to 300K ft. and is looking to double this by 2024/25. On top of this business shift, the recent MASH TL3 standard enacted by the NHS is forcing all national highway barriers to be updated over the next 5-7 years. We believe that this will lead to SMID seeing sustained high demand in their J-J Hooks rental business.

Smith-Midland: An Undiscovered Infrastructure Winner

SMID sells precast concrete products for the infrastructure industry. The company has grown its bottom line at more than 100% YTD, yet has an attractive EV/EBIT of below 9x. The recent move into the Californian market and increased infrastructure spending should pose strong tailwinds for the business. With no coverage by analysts and on Seeking Alpha so far, an investment in SMID could bring with it a first-mover advantage.
