SMG Reports Record Revenues of $71 Million for Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2022, an Increase of 36% From 2021 Revenues, and a 2022 Positive Adjusted EBITDA of $4.8 Million
HOUSTON, TX, April 18, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NewMediaWire – SMG Industries, Inc. (“SMG” or the "Company") (OTCQB:SMGI), a growth-oriented transportation services company focused on the domestic infrastructure logistics market, today announced that its audited results of consolidated revenues from operations for the year ended December 31, 2022 was a record $71,021,862, representing an increase of 36% from $52,113,827 reported for the year ended December 31, 2021. For the year ended December 31, 2022, Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, was a positive $4.8 million compared to a loss in the year ago period showing the significant progress the Company has made compared to recent years. Additional information regarding Adjusted EBITDA, as well as a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure of net income (loss), is provided in the “Adjusted EBITDA Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) Reconciliation Table” section below.
The increase in revenue year-over-year in 2022 compared to 2021 resulted from increased volumes and improved pricing in the Company’s Industrial Division, which experienced increased demand for super heavy haul projects, infrastructure and additional production hauling work. The Company also saw its brokerage business (known as 5J Logistics Services) launch in 2022 and contribute solid operating revenues as it expanded its footprint and customer base, which was not present during the 2021 comparable period. Overall, positive Adjusted EBITDA performance was attributed to higher sales volumes, improved fixed asset utilization, better pricing mix from the increased activity of the Company’s Industrial Division and lower SG&A as a percentage of sales compared to the prior year period.
Mr. Matt Flemming, Chairman of SMG, stated, "The Company benefited from higher activity levels from its customers, new end market diversification and increased pricing relative to the prior year period. Additionally, the heavy haul transport of infrastructure including bridge beams, compressors and refinery components contributed to the increase in revenues during 2022. The Company’s asset-light brokerage business, 5J Logistics Services, finished its first full fiscal year and made strong inroads into retail and some industrial customers. The performance of the Company during and after the COVID pandemic is a testament to management’s ability to adjust through one of the more trying times in US history and still post record revenue performance. As discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company’s growth strategy includes seeking acquisitions that are accretive to its business to support its growth and diversification. SMG is hopeful to achieve further growth via acquisitions this year. The Company looks forward to updating shareholders further on its progress, diversification and growth. Lastly, the Company has started conversations for a listing of its common stock on a national stock exchange and the associated satisfaction of the related listing requirements.”
Please see the Company’s full financial results along with management’s discussion and analysis and risk factors within its Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2022 filed April 17, 2023.

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company has provided the non-GAAP performance measure of Adjusted EBITDA to illustrate and improve comparability of its results from period to period. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, net, including amortization of debt discounts, benefit/provision for income taxes, depreciation expense, one-time and non-operating expenses unrelated to the ongoing business operations and other amortization expenses during the twelve month period ended December 31, 2022. The Company considers this non-GAAP measure in evaluating and managing the Company's operations and believes that discussion of results adjusted for these items is meaningful to investors because it provides a useful analysis of ongoing underlying operating trends. The measure is not in accordance with, nor is it a substitute for, GAAP measures, and it may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
