Limbach Holdings, Inc. (the “Company,” “we” or “us”), a Delaware corporation headquartered in Warrendale, Pennsylvania, was formed on July 20, 2016 as a result of a business combination with Limbach Holdings LLC (“LHLLC”). The Company is a building systems solutions firm who strives to be an indispensable partner to building owners with mission critical mechanical (heating, ventilation, air conditioning), electrical, and plumbing infrastructure. The Company’s focus is in six vertical markets: healthcare, industrial and manufacturing, data centers, life science, higher education, and cultural and entertainment. The Company provides comprehensive facility services with expertise in the management and maintenance of mechanical, electrical, plumbing and controls systems who uniquely combines engineering solutions with field installation expertise to provide custom solutions. The Company has more than 1,300 team members in 19 offices across the eastern United States and operates primarily in the Eastern and Midwest regions of the United States.

The Company operates in two segments, (i) Owner Direct Relationships (“ODR”), in which the Company performs owner direct projects and/or provides maintenance or service primarily on mechanical, plumbing or electrical systems, building controls and specialty contracting projects direct to, or assigned by, building owners or property managers, and (ii) General Contractor Relationships (“GCR”), in which the Company generally manages new construction or renovation projects that involve primarily mechanical, plumbing, or electrical services awarded to the Company by general contractors or construction managers. This work is primarily performed under fixed price, modified fixed price, and time and material contracts over periods of typically less than two years.

Basis of Presentation

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements for assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period, and the accompanying notes. Management believes that its most significant estimates and assumptions have been based on reasonable and supportable assumptions and the resulting estimates are reasonable for use in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company’s significant estimates include estimates associated with revenue recognition on construction contracts, costs incurred through each balance sheet date, intangibles, property and equipment, fair value accounting for acquisitions, insurance reserves, income tax valuation allowances, fair value of contingent consideration arrangements and contingencies. If the underlying estimates and assumptions upon which the condensed consolidated financial statements are based change in the future, actual amounts may differ from those included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

The accompanying interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the

periods presented are unaudited. Also, within the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has included unaudited information for these interim periods. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. In the Company's opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2024, its results of operations and equity for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 and its cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024.

The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2023 was derived from the Company's audited financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 13, 2024, but is presented as condensed and does not contain all of the footnote disclosures from the annual financial statements.

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This update aims to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. ASU 2023-07 requires disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss. The update also requires disclosure regarding the chief operating decision maker and expands the interim segment disclosure requirements. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-07 on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740). This update requires entities to disclose additional information with respect to the effective tax rate reconciliation and to disclose the disaggregation by jurisdiction of income tax expense and income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on its consolidated financial statements.

On July 3, 2023 (the “ACME Effective Date”), the Company, LFS and ACME, and the owner of ACME (the “ACME Seller”) entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “ACME Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which LFS purchased all of the outstanding equity interests in ACME from the ACME Seller (the “ACME Transaction”). The ACME Transaction closed on the ACME Effective Date. As a result of the ACME Transaction, ACME became a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of the Company. ACME specializes in performing industrial maintenance, capital project work, and emergency services for specialty chemical and manufacturing clients, and is a leading mechanical solutions provider for hydroelectric producers. The acquisition expands the Company’s market share within its existing operating footprint, provides further exposure to an attractive customer base and supports the Company's continued ODR growth strategy.

Total consideration paid by the Company for the ACME Transaction at closing was $5.0 million (the “ACME Closing Purchase Price”), consisting of cash paid to the ACME Seller, subject to typical adjustments for working capital. Of the consideration paid to the ACME Seller, approximately $0.4 million is being held in escrow for indemnification purposes. The purchase price is subject to customary post-closing adjustments. In addition, the ACME Seller may receive up to an aggregate of $2.5 million in cash, consisting of two individual tranches of $0.5 million and $2.0 million pursuant to the terms of the ACME Purchase Agreement, if the gross profit of ACME equals or exceeds (i) $2.0 million in the 12-month period beginning on the ACME Effective Date (the “First ACME Earnout Period”) or (ii) $2.5 million in the 12-month period beginning on the first anniversary of the ACME Effective Date (the “Second ACME Earnout Period” and together with the First ACME Earnout Period, the “ACME Earnout Payments”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if ACME’s Adjusted EBITDA, as defined within the ACME Purchase Agreement, for calendar year 2023 equaled or exceeded $2.5 million then the Company would have been required to

pay the ACME Seller $2.5 million, and the ACME Seller would not have been entitled to any further payment. This particular earnout condition was not met as of December 31, 2023.

The Company recorded $0.3 million in acquisition-related expenses associated with professional fees related to the ACME Transaction during the year-ended December 31, 2023, which were included in selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of operations.

The following table summarizes the allocation of the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the ACME Transaction as of the ACME Effective Date by the Company.

On November 1, 2023 (the “IA Effective Date”), the Company, LFS and Industrial Air, and the owner of Industrial Air (the “IA Seller”) entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “IA Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which LFS purchased all of the outstanding equity interests in Industrial Air from the IA Seller (the “Industrial Air Transaction”). The Industrial Air Transaction closed on the IA Effective Date. As a result of the Industrial Air Transaction, Industrial Air became a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of the Company. Industrial Air serves industrial customers throughout the Southeast United States and along the Eastern seaboard, focusing on delivering engineered air handling systems, including air conditioning and air filtration, along with controls systems and maintenance work. In addition, Industrial Air manufactures a wide range of components for air conditioning and filtration systems. The Industrial Air Transaction provides the Company with a presence in an attractive and growing geographic market, where the acquired entity has a strong ODR customer base and supports the Company’s continued ODR growth strategy.

Total consideration paid by the Company for the Industrial Air Transaction at closing was $13.5 million (the “IA Closing Purchase Price”), consisting of cash paid to the IA Seller, subject to typical adjustments for working capital. Of the consideration paid to the IA Seller, approximately $1.4 million is being held in escrow for indemnification purposes. The purchase price is subject to customary post-closing adjustments. In addition, the IA Seller may receive up to an aggregate of $6.5 million in cash, consisting of two individual tranches of $3.0 million and $3.5 million pursuant to the terms of the Industrial Air Purchase Agreement, if the gross profit of Industrial Air equals or exceeds (i) $7.6 million in the 12-month period beginning on the IA Effective Date (the “First IA Earnout Period”) or (ii) $8.8 million in the 12-month period beginning on the first anniversary of the IA Effective Date (the “Second IA Earnout Period” and together with the First IA Earnout Period, the “IA Earnout Payments”). However, if the gross profit of Industrial Air is less than $7.6 million but exceeds $6.6 million during the First IA Earnout Period then the IA Seller shall receive a portion of the deferred payment made on a pro rata basis. Similarly, if the gross profit of Industrial Air is less than $8.8 million but exceeds $7.8 million during the Second IA Earnout Period then the IA Seller shall receive a portion of the deferred payment made on a pro rata basis.

The following table summarizes the allocation of the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the Industrial Air Transaction as of the IA Effective Date by the Company.

The Company generates revenue from construction type contracts, primarily consisting of fixed-price contracts, to deliver mechanical, plumbing, and electrical construction services to its customers. The duration of its contracts generally ranges from three months to two years. Revenue from fixed price contracts is recognized on the cost-to-cost method, measured by the relationship of total cost incurred to total estimated contract costs. Revenue from time and materials contracts is recognized as services are performed. The Company believes that its extensive experience in mechanical, plumbing, and electrical projects, and its internal cost review procedures during the bidding process, enable it to reasonably estimate costs and mitigate the risk of cost overruns on fixed price contracts.

The Company generally invoices customers on a monthly basis, based on a schedule of values that breaks down the contract amount into discrete billing items. Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts are recorded as a contract asset until billable under the contract terms. Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts are recorded as a contract liability until the related revenue is recognizable. The Company classifies contract assets and liabilities that may be settled beyond one year from the balance sheet date as current, consistent with the length of time of the Company’s project operating cycle.

The current estimated net realizable value on such items as recorded in contract assets and contract liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets was $19.3 million and $19.5 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company currently anticipates that the majority of such amounts will be approved or executed within one year. The resolution of those claims and unapproved change orders that may require litigation or other forms of dispute resolution proceedings may delay the timing of billing beyond one year.

Contract liabilities include billings in excess of contract costs and provisions for losses. The components of the contract liability balances as of the respective dates were as follows:

Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts represent the excess of contract billings to date over the amount of contract costs and profits (or contract revenue) recognized to date. The balance may fluctuate depending on the timing of contract billings and the recognition of contract revenue.

Provisions for losses are recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations at the uncompleted performance obligation level for the amount of total estimated losses in the period that evidence indicates that the estimated total cost of a performance obligation exceeds its estimated total revenue.

The net (overbilling) underbilling position for contracts in process consisted of the following:

The Company recorded revisions in its contract estimates for certain ODR and GCR projects. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded material gross profit write-ups on two ODR projects for a total of $2.0 million that had a net gross profit impact of $0.5 million or more. There were no material gross profit write-downs recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2024. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company did not record any material gross profit write-ups or write-downs that had a net gross profit impact of $0.5 million or more.

Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of firm orders for which work has not been performed and exclude unexercised contract options. The Company’s remaining performance obligations include projects that have a written award, a letter of intent, a notice to proceed or an agreed upon work order to perform work on mutually accepted terms and conditions.

As of March 31, 2024, the aggregate amount of the transaction prices allocated to the remaining performance obligations of the Company's ODR and GCR segment contracts were $139.5 million and $163.0 million, respectively. The Company currently estimates that 83% and 68% of its ODR and GCR segment remaining performance obligations as of March 31, 2024, respectively, will be recognized as revenue during the remainder of 2024, with the substantial majority of remaining performance obligations to be recognized within 24 months, although the timing of the Company's performance is not always under its control.

Additionally, the difference between remaining performance obligations and backlog is due to the exclusion of a portion of the Company’s ODR agreements under certain contract types from the Company’s remaining performance obligations as these contracts can be canceled for convenience at any time by the Company or the customer without considerable cost incurred by the customer.

Goodwill was $16.4 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and is entirely associated with the Company's ODR segment. The Company tests its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets allocated to its reporting units for impairment annually on October 1, or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of its reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets are less than their carrying amount. The Company has the option to assess goodwill for possible impairment by performing a qualitative analysis to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. A quantitative assessment is performed if the qualitative assessments results in a more-likely-than-not determination or if a qualitative assessment is not performed.

The Company did not recognize any impairment charges on its goodwill or intangible assets during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023.

The following table summarizes the carrying amount and changes in goodwill associated with the Company's segments for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Intangible assets are comprised of the following:     

Total amortization expense for the Company's definite-lived intangible assets was $1.1 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Long-term debt consists of the following obligations as of:

Wintrust Term and Revolving Loans

On February 24, 2021, LFS, LHLLC and the direct and indirect subsidiaries of LFS from time to time included as parties to the agreement (the “Wintrust Guarantors”) entered into a credit agreement (the “Wintrust Credit Agreement”) by and among LFS, LHLLC, Wintrust Guarantors, the lenders party thereto from time to time, Wheaton Bank & Trust Company, N.A., a subsidiary of Wintrust Financial Corporation (collectively, “Wintrust”), as administrative agent and L/C issuer, Bank of the West as documentation agent, M&T Bank as syndication agent, and Wintrust as lead arranger and sole book runner.

In accordance with the terms of the Wintrust Credit Agreement, Lenders provided to LFS (i) a $30.0 million senior secured term loan (the “Wintrust Term Loan”); and (ii) a $25.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility with a $5.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit (the “Wintrust Revolving Loan” and, together with the Wintrust Term Loan, the “Wintrust Loans”). Proceeds of the Wintrust Loans were used to refinance certain existing indebtedness, finance working capital and other general corporate purposes and fund certain fees and expenses associated with the closing of the Wintrust Loans.

On May 5, 2022, the Company, LFS and LHLLC entered into a first amendment and waiver to the A&R Wintrust Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment to the A&R Wintrust Credit Agreement”) with the lenders party thereto and Wintrust, as administrative agent. The First Amendment to the A&R Wintrust Credit Agreement modifies certain definitions within the A&R Wintrust Credit Agreement, and make other corresponding changes, including: (i) the definition of “EBITDA” to allow for the recognition of certain restructuring charges and lease breakage costs not previously specified, (ii) the definition of “Excess Cash Flow” to exclude the aggregate amount of the Earnout Payments paid in cash, (iii) the definition of “Total Funded Debt” to exclude certain capitalized lease obligations for real estate based on the approval of each lender and (iv) the definition of “Disposition” to include a clause for the sale and leaseback of certain real property based on the approval of each lender.

In July 2022, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to manage the risk associated with a portion of its variable-rate long-term debt. The interest rate swap involves the exchange of fixed-rate and variable-rate payments without the exchange of the underlying notional amount on which the interest payments are calculated. The new swap agreement became effective on July 14, 2022 and will terminate on July 31, 2027. The notional amount of the swap agreement is $10.0 million with a fixed interest rate of 3.12%. If the one-month SOFR (as defined in the A&R Credit Agreement) is above the fixed rate, the counterparty pays the Company, and if the one-month SOFR is less than the fixed rate, the Company pays the counterparty, the difference between the fixed rate of 3.12% and the one-month SOFR. The Company has not designated this instrument as a

hedge for accounting purposes. As a result, the change in fair value of the derivative instrument is recognized directly in earnings on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations as a gain or loss on interest rate swap. Refer to Note 8 for further information regarding this interest rate swap.

On September 28, 2022, the Company, LFS and LHLLC entered into a second amendment and waiver to the amended and restated Wintrust credit agreement (the “Second Amendment to the A&R Wintrust Credit Agreement”) with the lenders party thereto and Wintrust, as administrative agent. The Second Amendment to the A&R Wintrust Credit Agreement incorporates certain restricted payment provisions, among other things, to permit LFS to repurchase shares under the Company’s Share Repurchase Program (as defined in Note 7).

On May 5, 2023, LFS, LHLLC and the direct and indirect subsidiaries of LFS from time to time included as parties to the agreement entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Second A&R Credit Agreement”) with the lenders party thereto and Wintrust, as administrative agent, which amends and restates the A&R Wintrust Credit Agreement. In accordance with the Second A&R Credit Agreement (i) lenders provided to LFS a $50.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility with a $5.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit, an increase of $25.0 million over the A&R Wintrust Revolving Loan, with a maturity date of February 24, 2028 (the “Second A&R Wintrust Revolving Loan”), and (ii) LFS repaid the then outstanding principal balance of the A&R Wintrust Term Loan using proceeds of the Second A&R Wintrust Revolving Loan. Prior to the execution of this agreement, the Company repaid $9.6 million of the then outstanding balance under the A&R Term Loan with cash on hand. As a result of the early repayment of the A&R Wintrust Term Loan and certain changes to the members of the loan syndicate under the Second A&R Wintrust Credit Agreement, the Company wrote off approximately $0.3 million of unamortized debt issuance costs, which are reported as a loss on early debt extinguishment on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The Second A&R Wintrust Revolving Loan bears interest, at LFS’s option, at either the Term SOFR (as defined in the Second A&R Credit Agreement) (with a 0.15% floor) plus 3.10% or the Prime Rate (as defined in the Second A&R Credit Agreement) (with a 3.0% floor), subject to a 50 basis point step-down based on the ratio between the senior debt of the Company and its subsidiaries to the EBITDA of LFS and its subsidiaries for the most recently ended four fiscal quarters.

The Second A&R Wintrust Revolving Loan is secured by (i) a valid, perfected and enforceable lien of the administrative agent on the ownership interests held by each of LFS and Wintrust Guarantors in their respective subsidiaries; and (ii) a valid, perfected and enforceable lien of the administrative agent on each of LFS and Wintrust Guarantors’ personal property, fixtures and real estate, subject to certain exceptions and limitations. Additionally, the re-payment of the Second A&R Wintrust Revolving Loan is jointly and severally guaranteed by each Wintrust Guarantor.

The Second A&R Credit Agreement contains representations and warranties, covenants and events of default that are customary for facilities of this type, as more particularly described in the Second A&R Credit Agreement. The Second A&R Wintrust Revolving Loan also contains three financial maintenance covenants, including (i) a requirement to have as of the last day of each quarter for the senior leverage ratio of LFS and its subsidiaries not to exceed an amount beginning at 2.00 to 1.00, (ii) a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.20 to 1.00 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, commencing with the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2023, and (iii) no unfinanced capital expenditures, except for unfinanced capital expenditures in the ordinary course of business not exceeding in the aggregate $4.0 million during any fiscal year; and no default or event of default (as defined in the Second A&R Credit Agreement) has occurred and is continuing, 50% of any portion of this annual limit, if not expended in the fiscal year for which it is permitted, may be carried over for expenditure in the next following fiscal year as stipulated by the agreement.

On March 13, 2024, LFS, LHLLC, and other designated parties entered into a first amendment to the Second A&R Wintrust Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment to the Second A&R Wintrust Credit Agreement”) with the lenders party thereto and Wintrust, as administrative agent. The First Amendment to the Second A&R Wintrust Credit Agreement makes certain amendments to the Second A&R Wintrust Credit Agreement, including: (i) modifying the definition of “L/C Sublimit” to increase the sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit from $5.0 million to $10.0 million, (ii) removing the requirement to deliver a Borrowing Base Certificate if outstanding Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit (as such terms are defined in the Second A&R Wintrust Credit Agreement) do not exceed $30.0 million, and (iii) removing certain financial covenants that restrict the Company’s ability to make Unfinanced Capital Expenditures (as defined in the Second A&R Wintrust Credit Agreement).

At March 31, 2024, the Company had irrevocable letters of credit in the amount of $5.2 million with its lender to secure obligations under its self-insurance program.

The following is a summary of the applicable margin and commitment fees payable on the Second A&R Wintrust Revolving Loan credit commitment:

As of March 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all financial maintenance covenants as required by the Second A&R Credit Agreement.

On September 29, 2022, LC LLC and Royal Oak Acquisitions, LLC (the “Purchaser”) consummated the purchase of the real property under a sale and leaseback transaction, with an aggregate value of approximately $7.8 million (a purchase price of approximately $5.4 million and $2.4 million in tenant improvement allowances), pursuant to a purchase agreement under which the Purchaser purchased from LC LLC the Company’s facility and real property in Pontiac, MI (collectively, the “Pontiac Facility”).

In connection with the sale and leaseback transaction, LC LLC and Featherstone St Pontiac MI LLC (the “Landlord”) entered into a Lease Agreement (the “Lease Agreement”), dated September 29, 2022 (the “Lease Effective Date”) for the Pontiac Facility. Commencing on the Lease Effective Date, pursuant to the Lease Agreement, LC LLC has leased the Pontiac Facility, subject to the terms and conditions of the Lease Agreement. The Lease Agreement provides for a term of 25 years (the “Primary Term”). The Lease Agreement also provides LC LLC with the option to extend the Primary Term by two separate renewal terms of five years each (each a “Renewal Term”). Under the terms of the Lease Agreement, the Company’s annual minimum rent is $499,730, payable in monthly installments, subject to annual increases of approximately 2.5% each year under the Primary Term and for each year under the Renewal Terms, if exercised. LC LLC has a one-time option to terminate the Lease Agreement effective on the last day of the fifteenth lease year by providing written notice to the Landlord as more fully set forth in the Lease Agreement. The one-time termination option of the Lease Agreement would require LC LLC to pay to the Landlord a termination fee of approximately $1.7 million.

Pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Lease Agreement, the Landlord has agreed to provide LC LLC with a tenant improvement allowance in an amount up to $2.4 million. LC LLC is responsible for the initial capital outlay and completion of the agreed upon improvement work. The Landlord will subsequently reimburse LC LLC for such items up to the stated allowance amount.

The presence of a finance lease indicates that control of the Pontiac Facility has not transferred to the Purchaser and, as such, the transaction was deemed a failed sale-leaseback and must be accounted for as a financing arrangement. As a result of this determination, the Company is viewed as having received the sale proceeds from the Purchaser in the form of a hypothetical loan collateralized by its leased facilities. The hypothetical loan is payable as principal and interest in the form of “lease payments” to the Purchaser. Principal repayments are recorded as a reduction to the financing liability. The Company will not derecognize the Pontiac Facility from its books for accounting purposes until the lease ends. No gain or loss was recognized under GAAP related to the sale and leaseback arrangement.

The Company’s second amended and restated certificate of incorporation currently authorizes the issuance of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001, and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001.

In conjunction with the Company's initial public offering, the Company issued Public Warrants, Private Warrants and $15 Exercise Price Sponsor Warrants. The Company issued certain Merger Warrants and Additional Merger Warrants in conjunction with the Company's business combination with LHLLC in July 2016 (the “Business Combination”). On July 20, 2021, the Public Warrants, Private Warrants, and Additional Merger Warrants expired by their terms. During 2023, 600,000 warrants exercisable for one share of common stock at an exercise price of $15.00 per share (“$15 Exercise Price Sponsor Warrants”) and 606,476 warrants exercisable for one share of common stock at an exercise price of $12.50 per share (“Merger Warrants”) were exercised on a cashless basis by the holders of the warrants, which resulted in the warrants being converted into 167,564 and 274,742 shares of the Company's common stock, respectively. The remaining 23,167 unexercised Merger Warrants expired by their terms on July 20, 2023.

Upon the consummation of the Company's Business Combination, the Company adopted an omnibus incentive plan (the “Omnibus Incentive Plan”) pursuant to which equity awards may be granted thereunder.

On March 25, 2022, the Board of Directors approved certain additional amendments to the Company's Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2022 Amended and Restated Omnibus Incentive Plan”) to increase the number of shares of the Company's common stock that may be issued pursuant to awards by 350,000, for a total of 2,600,000 shares, and extended the term of the plan so that it will expire on the tenth anniversary of the date the stockholders approve the 2022 Amended and Restated Omnibus Incentive Plan. The amendments were approved by the Company's stockholders at the Annual Meeting held on June 22, 2022.

On March 29, 2023, the Board of Directors approved certain amendments to the Company's Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2023 Amended and Restated Omnibus Incentive Plan”) to increase the number of shares of the Company's common stock that may be issued pursuant to awards by 450,000, for a total of 3,050,000 shares, and extended the term of the plan so that it will expire on the tenth anniversary of the date the stockholders approve the 2023 Amended and Restated Omnibus Incentive Plan. The amendments were acted upon by the Company's stockholders at the Annual Meeting held on June 22, 2023.

See Note 14 for a discussion of the Company's management incentive plans for restricted stock units (“RSUs”) granted, vested, forfeited and remaining unvested.

In September 2022, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program (the “Share Repurchase Program”) to repurchase shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price not to exceed $2.0 million. The share repurchase authority was valid through September 29, 2023. Share repurchases may have been executed through various means, including, without limitation, open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions or by other means in accordance with federal securities laws. The Share Repurchase Program did not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock, and the program may have been suspended or terminated by the Company at any time at its discretion without prior notice. Through September 29, 2023, the Company made share repurchases of approximately $2.0 million under its Share Repurchase Program.

Upon approval of the Company's stockholders on May 30, 2019, the Company adopted the Limbach Holdings, Inc. 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”). On January 1, 2020, the ESPP went into effect. The ESPP enables eligible employees, as defined by the ESPP, the right to purchase the Company's common stock through payroll deductions during consecutive subscription periods at a purchase price of 85% of the fair market value of a common share at the end of each offering period. Annual purchases by participants are limited to the number of whole shares that can be purchased by an amount equal to ten percent of the participant's compensation or $5,000, whichever is less. Each offering period of the ESPP lasts six months, commencing on January 1 and July 1 of each year. The amounts collected from participants during a subscription period are used on the exercise date to purchase full shares of common stock. Participants may withdraw from an offering

before the exercise date and obtain a refund of amounts withheld through payroll deductions. Compensation cost, representing the 15% discount applied to the fair market value of common stock, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the six-month vesting period during which employees perform related services. Under the ESPP, 500,000 shares are authorized to be issued. In January 2024, the Company issued 2,989 shares of its common stock to participants in the ESPP who contributed to the plan during the offering period ending December 31, 2023. In January 2023, the Company issued a total of 10,997 shares of its common stock to participants in the ESPP who contributed to the plan during the offering period ending December 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2024, 385,967 shares remain available for future issuance under the ESPP.

The Company believes that the carrying amounts of its financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable and accounts payable, consist primarily of instruments without extended maturities, which approximate fair value primarily due to their short-term maturities and low risk of counterparty default. The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of 90 days or less on the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 consisted of overnight repurchase agreements in which cash from the Company's main operating checking account is invested overnight in highly liquid, short term investments, one U.S. Treasury Bill and certain investments in money market funds sponsored by a large financial institution. For the three months ending March 31, 2024, the Company recognized interest income in the aggregate of approximately $0.6 million associated with its overnight repurchase agreements, U.S. Treasury Bills and money market funds. No interest income was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2023. The Company has not experienced any losses in its cash and cash equivalents and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant credit risk with respect to such accounts.

The Company also believes that the carrying value of the Second A&R Wintrust Revolving Loan approximates its respective fair value due to the variable rate on such debt. As of March 31, 2024, the Company determined that the fair value of the Second A&R Wintrust Revolving Loan was $10.0 million. Such fair value was determined using discounted estimated future cash flows using level 3 inputs.

As a part of the total consideration for the Jake Marshall Transaction, the former owners of JMLLC and CSLLC may receive up to an aggregate of $6.0 million in cash, consisting of two tranches of $3.0 million, as defined in the purchase agreement, if the gross profit of the acquired companies equals or exceeds $10.0 million in (i) the approximately 12-month period from closing through December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Jake Marshall Earnout Period”) or (ii) fiscal year 2023 (the “2023 Jake Marshall Earnout Period”), respectively (collectively, the “Jake Marshall Earnout Payments”). To the extent, however, that the gross profit of the acquired companies is less than $10.0 million, but exceeds $8.0 million, during any of the 2022 Jake Marshall Earnout Period or 2023 Jake Marshall Earnout Period, the $3.0 million amount will be prorated for such period. The Company initially recognized $3.1 million in contingent consideration, of which the entire balance was included in other long-term liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets on December 2, 2021. The fair value of contingent Jake Marshall Earnout Payments is based on generating growth rates on the projected gross margins of the acquired entities and calculating the associated contingent payments based on achieving the earnout targets, which are reassessed each reporting period. In April 2023 and 2024, the Company made two separate payments in the amount of $3.0 million to the former owners of JMLLC and CSLLC related to the 2022 Jake Marshall Earnout Period and the 2023 Jake Marshall Earnout Period, respectively.

As a part of the total consideration for the ACME Transaction, the Company recognized $1.5 million in contingent consideration on the ACME Effective Date. The fair value of contingent ACME Earnout Payments is based on generating growth rates on the projected gross margins of ACME and calculating the associated contingent payments based on achieving the earnout targets, which are reassessed each reporting period. The Company determined the initial fair value of the ACME Earnout Payments based on the Monte Carlo Simulation method, which represented a Level 3 measurement. As of the Effective Date, the ACME Earnout Payments associated with the ACME Transaction were valued utilizing discount rates between 12.96% and 21.64%. The discount rates were calculated using the build-up method with a risk-free rate commensurate with the term of the ACME Earnout Payments based on the U.S. Treasury Constant Maturity Yield and certain metric risk premiums determined with reference to a long-term risk free rate, a weighted average cost of capital and certain adjustments for operational leverage.

As a part of the total consideration for the Industrial Air Transaction, the Company recognized $3.2 million in contingent consideration on the IA Effective Date. The fair value of contingent IA Earnout Payments is based on generating growth rates on the projected gross margins of Industrial Air and calculating the associated contingent payments based on achieving the earnout targets, which are reassessed each reporting period. The Company determined the initial fair value of the IA Earnout Payments based on the Monte Carlo Simulation method, which represented a Level 3 measurement. As of the IA Effective Date, the IA Earnout Payments associated with the Industrial Air Transaction were valued utilizing a discount rate of 13.68%. The discount rates were calculated using the build-up method with a risk-free rate commensurate with the term of the IA Earnout Payments based on the U.S. Treasury Constant Maturity Yield and certain metric risk premiums determined with reference to a long-term risk free rate, a weighted average cost of capital and certain adjustments for operational leverage.

Based on the Company’s ongoing assessment of the fair value of contingent earnout liabilities, the Company recorded a net increase in the estimated fair value of such liabilities of $0.6 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which was presented in change in fair value of contingent consideration in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The Company determined the fair value of the earnout payments by utilizing the Monte Carlo Simulation method, which represents a Level 3 measurement.

The following table presents the carrying values of the Company's contingent earnout payment obligations included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, which approximated fair value at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

The fair value of the interest rate swap is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques and reflects the contractual terms of the interest rate swap including the period to maturity, and while there are no quoted prices in active markets, it uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The fair value analysis also considers a credit valuation adjustment to reflect nonperformance risk of both the Company and the single counterparty. The fair value of the interest rate contract has been determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts (or payments) and the discounted expected variable cash payments (or receipts). The variable cash payments (or receipts) are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. The interest rate swap is classified as a Level 2 item within the fair value hierarchy. As of March 31, 2024, the Company determined that the fair value of the interest rate swap was approximately $0.3 million and is recognized in other assets on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized a gain of approximately $0.1 million on its condensed consolidated statements of operations associated with the change in fair value of the interest rate swap arrangement. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized a loss of approximately $0.2 million on its condensed consolidated statements of operations associated with the change in fair value of the interest rate swap arrangement.

The following table sets forth the computation of the basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to the Company's common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:

The following table summarizes the securities that were antidilutive or out-of-the-money, and therefore, were not included in the computations of diluted income per common share:

The Company is taxed as a C corporation.

For interim periods, the provision for income taxes (including federal, state, local and foreign taxes) is calculated based on the estimated annual effective tax rate, adjusted for certain discrete items for the full fiscal year. Cumulative adjustments to the Company's estimate are recorded in the interim period in which a change in the estimated annual effective rate is determined. Each quarter the Company updates its estimate of the annual effective tax rate, and if its estimated tax rate changes, the Company makes a cumulative adjustment.

The following table presents our income tax (benefit) provision and our income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

The U.S. federal statutory tax rate was 21% for each of the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. The difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate and the Company’s effective tax rate period over period was primarily due to state income taxes, tax credits, other permanent adjustments and discrete tax items. In particular, the Company’s effective rate for the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 are materially impacted by “excess tax benefits on stock-based compensation” recognized discretely during the quarter. This benefit reduced the effective tax rate by 35.1% and 10.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 respectively, with the impact varying in prior years. The increase in the 2024 effective rate

reduction is primarily related to the higher stock price of the Company resulting in increased tax deductions for the Company upon vesting.

No valuation allowance was required as of March 31, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

As discussed in Note 1, the Company operates in two segments, (i) ODR, in which the Company provides maintenance or service primarily on mechanical, plumbing or electrical systems, building controls and specialty contracting projects direct to, or assigned by, building owners or property managers, and (ii) GCR, in which the Company generally manages new construction or renovation projects that involve primarily mechanical, plumbing, or electrical services awarded to the Company by general contractors or construction managers. These segments are reflective of how the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) reviews operating results for the purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance. The Company's CODM is comprised of its President and Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.

All of the Company’s identifiable assets are located in the United States, which is where the Company is domiciled.

Condensed consolidated segment information for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:

The Company does not identify capital expenditures and total assets by segment in its internal financial reports due in part to the shared use of a centralized fleet of vehicles and specialized equipment.

The Company leases real estate, trucks and other equipment. The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains, a lease is performed at the inception of the arrangement. Classification and initial measurement of the right-of-use asset and lease liability are determined at the lease commencement date. The Company elected the short-term lease measurement and recognition exemption; therefore, leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Instead, the short-term leases are recognized in expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

In conjunction with the closing of the ACME Transaction, the Company entered into an operating lease for certain land and facilities owned by a former member of ACME who became a full-time employee of the Company. The lease term of the lease runs through December 31, 2024 and includes an option to extend the lease for one successive period of one year through December 2025. Base rent for the term of the lease is $17,000 per month for the first six months with payment commencing on July 1, 2023. The fixed rent payment is escalated to $18,000 per month for the twelve month period ending December 31, 2024. Fixed rent payments for the extension term shall be increased to $19,000. In addition, under the agreement, the Company is required to pay its share of estimated property taxes and operating expenses, both of which are variable lease expenses.
