MasTec: Another Stellar Quarterly Performance and Optimistic Guidance

MasTec, Inc. (MTZ), a leading infrastructure construction company, announced the release of its Q3 2024 results. Retrospectively, MasTec reported strong results in Q2 2024, with revenue increasing 3% YoY and adjusted EBITDA margin also significantly increasing, so market expectations were high.

The company's backlog reached a record $13.3 billion, an increase of $501 million from the previous quarter, reflecting strong demand for its services and customer confidence in its growth potential. The optimism was driven by strong bookings in multi-year transmission and substation projects, as well as in top performances of the clean energy and infrastructure sectors. MasTec's adjusted EBITDA and adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS) also showed significant improvement, increasing 4.5% and 7.9%, respectively, compared to the prior year. The company's strong cash flow from operations of $264 million further strengthened its position.

MasTec expects fiscal 2024 revenue of approximately $12.4 billion, GAAP net income of $131 million, and adjusted EBITDA of $975 million, representing a substantial uptick from the comparable previous periods.
