Concrete Pumping Holdings Reports $392.9 Million Revenue, 7.7% Decline for Fiscal Year Ending October 31, 2025

Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. (CPH) reported a total revenue of $392.9 million for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2025, a decrease of 7.7% from $425.9 million in the previous year. The decline was primarily driven by a 10.5% drop in revenue from the U.S. Concrete Pumping segment, which generated $260.5 million, attributed to reduced demand in commercial and residential construction amid high interest rates and adverse weather conditions. Conversely, the U.S. Concrete Waste Management Services segment saw a revenue increase of 6.4%, reaching $75.4 million, while the U.K. Operations segment experienced a 10.9% decline, totaling $57.0 million.

In terms of profitability, CPH reported a net income of $6.4 million, down 60.7% from $16.2 million in the prior year. The decrease in net income was influenced by increased interest expenses, which rose to $31.6 million from $25.9 million, largely due to the refinancing of senior notes. The company's gross profit also fell to $151.1 million, resulting in a gross margin of 38.5%, slightly down from 38.9% in the previous year. General and administrative expenses decreased to $109.6 million, reflecting cost control measures and a reduction in labor costs.

Strategically, CPH has focused on enhancing its market position through acquisitions and operational efficiencies. The company operates approximately 95 locations across 23 states in the U.S. and 35 locations in the U.K., with a fleet of around 1,520 units and approximately 1,530 employees. The company estimates its market share to be approximately 17% in the U.S. and 30% in the U.K. CPH has also been actively expanding its Eco-Pan waste management services, which are designed to address environmental concerns related to concrete washout.

Looking ahead, CPH anticipates continued challenges due to economic conditions, including inflation and interest rates, which may impact construction demand. The company has expressed a commitment to maintaining operational flexibility and pursuing growth opportunities, particularly in its waste management segment. CPH's liquidity position remains strong, with $44.4 million in cash and $315.1 million available under its asset-based lending facility, providing a buffer for future capital needs and potential acquisitions.
