Second Quarter 2018 Results and Strategic Acquisition of SAIIA and The ACC Companies AUGUST 9, 2018


 
DISCLAIMER • This presentation includes “forward looking statements” (within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995), including but not limited to those regarding the proposed acquisition by Infrastructure and Energy Alternatives, Inc. (the “Company” or “IEA”) of Consolidated Construction Solutions I LLC and Subsidiaries dba Saiia Construction (“Saiia”) and The ACC Companies (together “ACC”)(the “Acquisition”) and the transactions related thereto. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as “forecast,” “intend,” “seek,” “target,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” “plan,” “outlook,” and “project” and other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. Such forward looking statements include projected financial information. Such forward looking statements with respect to projections, revenues, earnings, performance, strategies, prospects and other aspects of the businesses of the Company are based on current expectations that are subject to risks and uncertainties. A number of factors could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those indicated by such forward looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to: (1) the ability of the parties to consummate the Acquisition in a timely manner or at all; (2) satisfaction of the conditions precedent to consummation of the Acquisition, including the ability to secure required consents and regulatory approvals in a timely manner or at all; (3) the reduction in value of production tax credits and investment tax credits due to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in December 2017; (4) the adverse effect on our business and financial condition if we fail to comply with the regulations of The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, as amended, and other state and local agencies that oversee transportation and safety compliance; (5) substantial liabilities that could result from physical hazards; (6) the inability to operate efficiently if we are unable to attract and retain qualified managers and skilled employees; (7) an inability to realize financial and strategic goals from acquisition and investment activity; (8) significant changes in tax and other economic incentives and political and governmental policies which could materially and adversely affect the U.S. wind and solar industries; and (9) other risks and uncertainties indicated in the Company’s Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) filings. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The Company does not undertake to update or revise the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. • This presentation includes information based on independent industry publications and other sources. You should not construe the contents of this presentation as legal, accounting, business or tax advice and you should consult your own professional advisors as to the legal, accounting, business, tax, financial or other matters contained herein. • The estimates, forecasts and projections contained herein involve significant elements of subjective judgment and analysis and reflect numerous judgments, estimates and assumptions that are inherently uncertain in prospective financial information of any kind. As such, no representation can be made as to the attainability of such estimates, forecasts and projections. Investors are cautioned that such estimates, forecasts or projections have not been audited and have not been prepared in conformance with generally accepted accounting principles. For a listing of risks and other factors that could impact the combined company’s ability to attain its projected results, please refer to the “forward looking statements” above and the “Risk Factors” section of the Proxy Statement. • This presentation includes projections that are forward-looking and based on growth assumptions that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond IEA’s control. While all projections are necessarily speculative, IEA believes that projections relating to periods beyond 12 months from their date of preparation carry increasingly higher levels of uncertainty and should be read in that context. There will be differences between actual and projected results, and actual results may be materially greater or materially less than those contained in the projections. • This presentation includes non-GAAP financial measures. Definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included elsewhere in this presentation. IEA believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to IEA’s financial condition and results of operations. A more fulsome description of the nature of the adjustments from GAAP is provided elsewhere in this presentation. These non-GAAP financial measures may exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing financial results. Therefore, these financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income or other measures of profitability or performance under GAAP. Because these non-GAAP financial measures are not in conformity with GAAP, we urge you to review IEA’s audited financial statements, which have been filed with the SEC. For a full description of the risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ from our forward-looking statements, please refer to IEA’s periodic filings with the Securities & Exchange Commission including those described as “Risk Factors” in IEA’s Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed on February 9, 2018 2
