CORAL GABLES, Fla., Aug. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — MasTec, Inc. (NYSE: MTZ) today announced second quarter 2024 financial results and updated its full year 2024 guidance expectations.
Second quarter 2024 revenue was up 3% to $2.96 billion, a second quarter record, compared to $2.87 billion for the second quarter of 2023. GAAP net income was up 161% to $43.8 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, compared to a net income of $16.8 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2023.
Second quarter 2024 adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share, both non-GAAP measures, were $85.6 million and $0.96, respectively, as compared to adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $70.7 million and $0.89, respectively, in the second quarter of 2023. Second quarter 2024 adjusted EBITDA, also a non-GAAP measure, was $267.8 million, compared to $255.4 million in the second quarter of 2023.
18-month backlog as of June 30, 2024, was $13.3 billion, up $501 million sequentially from the first quarter of 2024. Backlog growth was driven by a multi-year transmission and substation project and strong bookings in our Clean Energy & Infrastructure segment in the second quarter.
Jose Mas, MasTec’s Chief Executive Officer, commented “We are pleased with our solid second quarter performance, and expect to build on this momentum during the balance of 2024 and in 2025. Our record backlog in multiple segments illustrates the confidence our customers have in MasTec to partner on their strategic capital programs. I’d like to highlight that during the second quarter, MasTec was awarded an approximately 700-mile high voltage transmission project that is expected to start in early 2025. We are experiencing significant demand for our services and look forward to continue delivering best in class execution for our customers in a safe, timely and cost-effective manner through the hard work and dedication of the men and women of MasTec.”
Paul DiMarco, MasTec’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, noted, “We exceeded our second quarter cash flow expectations, generating $264 million of cash flow from operations and driving net debt leverage below 2.5x. Our end markets provide us with exposure to a number of macrotrends that offer significant organic growth opportunities, and our improving capital structure will afford us more flexibility to complement these opportunities.”
Based on the information available today, the Company is providing third quarter and updating full year 2024 guidance. The Company currently expects full year 2024 revenue of approximately $12.4 billion. Full year 2024 GAAP net income is expected to approximate $131 million, representing 1.1% of revenue, with GAAP diluted earnings per share expected to be $1.25. Full year 2024 adjusted EBITDA is expected to be $975 million, representing 7.9% of revenue, with adjusted diluted earnings per share expected to be $3.03.
For the third quarter of 2024, the Company expects revenue of approximately $3.45 billion. Third quarter 2024 GAAP net income is expected to approximate $72 million, representing 2.1% of revenue, with GAAP diluted earnings per share expected to be $0.78. Third quarter 2024 adjusted EBITDA is expected to approximate $295 million, representing 8.6% of revenue, with adjusted diluted earnings per share expected to be $1.24.
Adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and net debt, which are all non-GAAP measures, exclude certain items which are detailed and reconciled to the most comparable GAAP-reported measures in the attached Supplemental Disclosures and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Disclosures.
Management will hold a conference call to discuss these results on Friday, August 2, 2024 at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time. The call-in number for the conference call is (856) 344-9221 or (888) 204-4368 with a pass code of 3980141.

$ 13,442
Backlog is a common measurement used in our industry. Our methodology for determining backlog may not, however, be comparable to the methodologies used by others. Estimated backlog represents the amount of revenue we expect to realize over the next 18 months from future work on uncompleted construction contracts, including new contracts under which work has not begun, as well as revenue from change orders and renewal options. Our estimated backlog also includes amounts under master service and other service agreements and our proportionate share of estimated revenue from proportionately consolidated non-controlled contractual joint ventures. Estimated backlog for work under master service and other service agreements is determined based on historical trends, anticipated seasonal impacts, experience from similar projects and estimates of customer demand based on communications with our customers.

MasTec uses EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, as well as Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share and Net Debt, to evaluate our performance, both internally and as compared with its peers, because these measures exclude certain items that may not be indicative of its core operating results, as well as items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry. MasTec believes that these adjusted measures provide a baseline for analyzing trends in its underlying business. MasTec believes that these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures provide meaningful information and help investors understand its financial results and assess its prospects for future performance. Because non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-U.S. GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. These financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, as substitutes for, or alternative measures of, reported net income or diluted earnings per share or total debt, and should be viewed in conjunction with the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures and the provided reconciliations thereto. MasTec believes these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, when viewed together with its U.S. GAAP results and related reconciliations, provide a more complete understanding of its business. Investors are strongly encouraged to review MasTec’s consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.

Can Independent Physicians Survive in 2025?
Published

November 15, 2024By
Learn How at an Exclusive Webinar on Nov. 20th Hosted by Medical Economics and Specialdocs
CHICAGO, Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — In healthcare change is inevitable, but for independent physicians already facing an uncertain economic forecast in 2025, the prospect of a new administration is sparking even more concern. To help decipher the implications of an ever-evolving regulatory and reimbursement landscape, Medical Economics has teamed up with Terry Bauer, CEO of concierge medicine pioneer Specialdocs Consultants, and Max Reiboldt, Chairman of leading healthcare advisory, Coker, to present an exclusive, informational webinar for physicians on November 20th. Bauer and Reiboldt bring insights gained collectively over more than a century advising physicians on career strategies, to address the headwinds that threaten to topple private medical practices, and explain why concierge medicine offers one of today’s most viable pathways to retaining independence.
CLICK HERE to register for “2025 Forecast for Physicians: Financial Headwinds, Continued Burnout, and How Concierge Medicine May Be the Cure for What Ails You” at 7 pm CST/8 pm EST on Wednesday, November 20th.
“Now representing just 22% of all practices,1 the independent physician is in danger of disappearing altogether amid unrelenting financial, professional and personal pressures,” says Bauer. “Among other challenges, rising costs to operate a traditional practice and continual cuts to Medicare reimbursements have contributed to an overall 29% downward slide in Medicare compensation over the last two decades.”2
He continues: “Yet we know that a change to our membership medicine model can prove lifesaving, restoring practice sustainability and ushering in a new era of unparalleled career satisfaction. We’ve long championed this solution for physicians in private practice, who have been consistently unappreciated for the very real value they bring to their patients and the health system.”
Adds Reiboldt: “Physicians in private practice are still a cornerstone of our healthcare system yet are facing challenges that threaten their existence. More and more physicians are affiliating with capital and/or strategic partners, which is not a bad thing but still threatens their independence and private structure.”
A number of crucial issues will be examined during the webinar. “We will approach these with sensitivity as all providers (physicians, health systems, private and public investors, et al) share in both the credit and the blame for our current state of affairs,” says Reiboldt.
Topics will include:
The new administration’s approach to lowering costs, reducing regulatory barriers to consolidation and expanding price transparency mandates for healthcare services.Future use of AI and other technologies to drive greater efficiencies, quality of care.The outlook for primary care providers and programs such as Medicare Advantage, risk-based reimbursement, quality incentives.How upcoming changes in reimbursement and regulations impact the financial viability of traditional practices.Strategies for maintaining or regaining independence as a practitioner; concierge medicine as a model offering sustainable financial security and work-life balance.

Rokid Glasses: Where AI Meets AR, Rivaling Meta’s Ray-Ban in an Exclusive Unveiling at Rokid Jungle 2024
Published
56 minutes agoon
November 15, 2024By
REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Rokid is poised to unveil its groundbreaking next-generation smart glasses, the Rokid Glasses, at the highly anticipated Rokid Jungle 2024 event, set to take place on 18 November in Hangzhou, China. Seamlessly integrating cutting-edge artificial intelligence with augmented reality, Rokid Glasses represent the pinnacle of innovation. As the most eagerly awaited event in the augmented reality calendar, Rokid Jungle 2024 is destined to be the largest and most consequential gathering of its kind on the global stage. With an impressive turnout expected of over 1,000 distinguished attendees, the event will serve as a landmark occasion, bringing together partners, visionaries, and industry leaders. The launch of the Rokid Glasses promises to elevate the smart daily experience to unprecedented heights, setting new standards in the realm of wearable technology.
Rokid Glasses: Transforming AI and AR into an Essential Daily Gadget for All
Rokid Glasses combine style, comfort, and lightweight design with intuitive, AI-powered features. Integrated with Alibaba’s Tongyi Qianwen AI, Rokid Glasses offer a range of capabilities, including object recognition, text translation, and even solving complex math problems. It can calculate the calorie content of food or provide real-time language translation, making it an indispensable tool for travelers.
Empowered by Zhi Xiaobao, Alibaba’s AI assistant, Rokid Glasses allow users to take full control of their world with simple voice commands, whether booking a ride or ordering a coffee. The advanced voiceprint recognition technology also facilitates secure payments via Alipay, ensuring a seamless and trusted connection to the user’s phone. Alipay’s cutting-edge AI audio detection technology guarantees top-tier security and fraud prevention during transactions.
A standout feature of Rokid Glasses is the ability to view message notifications directly through the glasses, effectively replacing the need for a phone screen. This functionality hints at a future where Rokid Glasses may evolve into a central hub of daily life, potentially replacing smartphones altogether as an essential tech gadget. “We’ve crafted our new glasses to redefine the user experience, bringing the world’s first AI+AR glasses to daily life,” says Misa Zhu, Founder and CEO of Rokid. “Our mission is to make high-quality AI+AR glasses accessible to everyone, and this launch marks a bold step in that direction.” True to Rokid’s ethos of Leave Nobody Behind, the Rokid Glasses bridge gaps in accessibility, usability, and comfort, ensuring that everyone can experience the transformative power of innovation.
Rokid’s Role to Impact Global Tech Arena and Its Commitments for leading AR Industry
Rokid is making significant strides in transforming the museum experience using augmented reality (AR) technology to enhance visitor engagement. By providing immersive, interactive experiences, Rokid brings historical artifacts and exhibitions to life in exciting new ways. With over 2.5 million users benefiting from its AR glasses and more than 300,000 of these users have made actual purchases and are actively engaged with the devices. Even more striking is the fact that Rokid users spend an average of 2 hours and 45 minutes daily with Rokid glasses—this not only underscores the strong appeal of Rokid’s products but also reflects the growing consumer interest in and adoption of augmented reality technology.
Rokid’s ecosystem continues to flourish, with over 6,200 registered developers, highlighting the company’s significant progress in cultivating an open and thriving ecosystem. As the race in augmented reality heats up, major players are competing for dominance in this rapidly evolving space. With AR technology expanding its global footprint, the question remains: who will emerge as the true leader in the AR industry? While the collaboration between Ray-Ban and Meta has brought new energy to the smart glasses market, Meta continues to face challenges. Despite a decade of investment in XR, VR, and AR, Meta has made strides with VR hardware like the Meta Quest but still struggles with slow user adoption and limited AR functionality.
Rokid Jungle 2024: A Decade of Breaking Boundaries in Augmented Reality
Rokid Jungle 2024 commemorates a significant milestone: Rokid’s 10th anniversary and the beginning of the next decade of AR innovation. From its founding in 2014, Rokid has maintained a relentless focus on human-computer interaction, driving the evolution of AR technology through unwavering dedication to innovation. From setting industry standards with the original Rokid Glass to the highly regarded consumer product Rokid Air, and now with the trendsetting AR Studio and AR Lite, Rokid has played a key role in propelling the AR industry forward.
With the launch of the latest Rokid Glasses, the company reaffirms its leadership in the new wave of AR technological innovation. To mark this remarkable milestone, Rokid is delighted to offer a $20 benefit on all purchases made via the official website, using the code ROKID10 at checkout. Looking ahead, Rokid is thrilled to showcase its innovations at CES 2025, where will continue to lead the charge in AR technology. Rokid looks forward to seeing you there and sharing the next chapter of this exciting journey.
