WillScot Corporation
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization and Nature of Operations
WillScot Corporation (“WillScot” and, together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) is a leading provider of modular space and portable storage solutions in the United States (“US”), Canada and Mexico. The Company leases, sells, delivers and installs mobile offices, modular buildings and storage products through an integrated network of branch locations that spans North America.
WillScot, whose Class A common shares are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (Nasdaq: WSC), serves as the holding company for the Williams Scotsman family of companies. All of the Company’s assets and operations are owned through Williams Scotsman Holdings Corp. (“WS Holdings”). WillScot operates and owns 91.0% of WS Holdings, and Sapphire Holding S.à r.l. (“Sapphire”), an affiliate of TDR Capital LLP (“TDR Capital”), owns the remaining 9.0%.
WillScot was incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempt company under the name Double Eagle Acquisition Corporation ("Double Eagle") on June 26, 2015. Prior to November 29, 2017, Double Eagle was a Nasdaq-listed special purpose acquisition company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination. On November 29, 2017 Double Eagle indirectly acquired Williams Scotsman International, Inc. (“WSII”) from Algeco Scotsman Global S.à r.l. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Algeco Group”), which is majority owned by an investment fund managed by TDR Capital. As part of the transaction (the “Business Combination”), Double Eagle domesticated to Delaware and changed its name to WillScot Corporation.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the US (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the financial position, the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented.
The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes included in WillScot's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.
Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of WillScot and its subsidiaries that it controls due to ownership of a majority voting interest. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Company obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date when such control ceases. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the Company. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated.
Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards
The Company qualifies as an emerging growth company (“EGC”) as defined under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”). Using exemptions provided under the JOBS Act provided to EGCs, the Company has elected to defer compliance with new or revised financial accounting standards until it is required to comply with such standards. WillScot will be deemed to be a large accelerated filer as of December 31, 2019.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), which prescribes that financial assets (or a group of financial assets) should be measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. Credit losses relating to these financial assets should be recorded through an allowance for credit losses. The new standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that fiscal year. The Company continues to evaluate the impacts of adopting the standard on the financial statements and will adopt the standard within the required adoption period.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASC 842"). This guidance revises existing practice related to accounting for leases under ASC Topic 840, Leases (“ASC 840”) for both lessees and lessors. The new guidance establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than twelve months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. This guidance also expands the requirements for lessees to record leases embedded in other arrangements and the required quantitative and qualitative disclosures surrounding leases. Accounting guidance for lessors is largely unchanged. This guidance is effective for non-public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those annual periods using a modified retrospective transition approach. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. However, based on WillScot's expectation that it
9



will cease to be an EGC as of December 31, 2019, the Company plans to adopt the new standard no later than in the fourth quarter of 2019.
The Company plans to take advantage of the transition package of practical expedients permitted within ASC 842 which allows the Company not to reassess (i) whether any expired or existing lease contracts are or contain leases, (ii) the historical lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (iii) initial direct costs for any existing leases. The Company is in the process of assessing the potential impact this guidance may have on its financial results, including which of its existing lease arrangements will be impacted by the new guidance and whether other arrangements that are not currently classified as leases may become subject to the guidance. Additionally, the Company is finalizing the implementation of a lease management system to assist in the accounting and is implementing additional changes to its processes and internal controls to ensure the new reporting and disclosure requirements are met upon adoption.
Additionally, as discussed in Note 3, most of the Company's equipment rental revenues will be accounted for under the current lease accounting standard, ASC 840, until the adoption of the new lease accounting standard ASC 842. The Company is continuing to evaluate the impact of adopting ASC 842 on the Company's accounting for equipment rental revenue.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date.
In August 2018 the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement Topic 820 ("ASU 2018-13"). This guidance modifies the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements by removing the requirements to disclose the amount and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the policy for the timing of transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy, and the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 also adds requirements to disclose the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period, as well as requires the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used in developing Level 3 fair value measurements. The guidance is effective for the Company for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. The Company elected to adopt this guidance on a retrospective basis with no material impact to the financial statements as of June 30, 2019.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) ("ASU 2018-15"). This guidance clarifies the accounting for implementation costs of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract, to align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs for hosting arrangements, regardless of whether they convey a license to the hosted software. The guidance is effective for the Company for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period, for all entities. The Company elected to adopt this guidance on a prospective basis with no material impact to the financial statements as of June 30, 2019.

NOTE 2 - Acquisitions and Assets Held for Sale
ModSpace Acquisition
On August 15, 2018, the Company acquired Modular Space Holdings, Inc. ("ModSpace"), a privately-owned national provider of office trailers, portable storage units and modular buildings (the "Business Combination"). The acquisition was consummated by merging a special purpose subsidiary of the Company with and into ModSpace, with ModSpace surviving the merger as a subsidiary of WSII.

The aggregate purchase price for ModSpace was $1.2 billion and consisted of (i) $1.1 billion in cash, (ii) 6,458,229 shares of WillScot's Class A common stock (the "Stock Consideration") with a fair market value of $95.8 million and (iii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of WillScot’s Class A common stock at an exercise price of $15.50 per share (the "2018 Warrants") with a fair market value of $52.3 million, and (iv) a working capital adjustment of $4.7 million.
The acquisition was funded by the net proceeds of WillScot's issuance of 9,200,000 shares of Class A common stock, the net proceeds of WSII’s issuance of $300.0 million in senior secured notes and $200.0 million in senior unsecured notes (see Note 8), and borrowings under the ABL Facility (see Note 8).
As of the date of acquisition, August 15, 2018, the fair market values of the Stock Consideration and 2018 Warrants were $14.83 per share and $5.23 per warrant, respectively, with the warrant values determined using a Black-Scholes valuation model. The fair market value of the Class A shares was determined utilizing the $15.78 per share closing price of the Company's shares on August 15, 2018, discounted by 6.0%, to reflect a lack of marketability based on the lock-up restrictions contemplated by the merger agreement.

The estimated fair values of the Stock Consideration and 2018 Warrants are Level 3 fair value measurements. The fair value of each share and warrant was estimated using the Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions: expected dividend yield, expected stock price volatility, weighted average risk-free interest rate, the average expected term of the lock up period on the shares, and the weighted average expected term of the warrants. The volatility assumption used in the Black-Scholes model is derived from the historical daily change in the market price of the Company's common stock, as well as the historical daily changes in the market price of its peer group, based on weighting, as determined by the Company, and over a time period equivalent to the lock-up restriction (for the shares) and the warrant term. The risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes model is based on the implied US Treasury bill yield curve at the date of grant with a remaining term equal to the Company’s expected term assumption. The Company has never declared or paid a cash dividend on common shares. The following table summarizes the key inputs utilized to determine the fair value of the Stock Consideration and 2018 Warrants included within the purchase price of ModSpace.

Opening Balance Sheet
The purchase price of ModSpace was assigned to the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition, August 15, 2018. The Company estimated the fair values based on independent valuations, discounted cash flow analyses, quoted market prices, contributory asset charges, and estimates made by management. The final assignment of the fair value of the ModSpace acquisition, including the final assignment of goodwill to the Company's reporting units was not complete as of June 30, 2019, but will be finalized within the allowable one year measurement period. The following table summarizes the preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date, August 15, 2018 and the adjustments made to these balances during the six months ended June 30, 2019.

NOTE 3 - Revenue
Adoption of ASU 2014-09
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("ASC 606") as well as subsequent updates using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2019. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2019 are presented under the guidance required by ASC 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company’s historical accounting under ASC 605, Revenue Recognition ("ASC 605"). The implementation of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial results for the period ending June 30, 2019.
Revenue Recognition Policy
A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied.
Modular Leasing and Services Revenue
The majority of revenue (69% for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, and 70% for both the three and six months ending June 30, 2018) is generated by rental income subject to the guidance of ASC 840. The remaining revenue is generated by performance obligations in contracts with customers for services or sale of units subject to the guidance in ASC 606 or ASC 605 for 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Leasing Revenue (ASC 840)
Income from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company's lease arrangements typically include multiple lease and non-lease components. Examples of lease components include, but are not limited to, the lease of modular space or portable storage units, and examples of non-lease components include, but are not limited to, the delivery, installation, maintenance, and removal services commonly provided in a bundled transaction with the lease components. Arrangement consideration is allocated between lease deliverables and non-lease components based on the relative estimated selling (leasing) price of each deliverable. Estimated selling (leasing) price of the lease deliverables is based upon the estimated stand-alone selling price of the related performance obligations using an adjusted market approach.
When leases and services are billed in advance, recognition of revenue is deferred until services are rendered. If equipment is returned prior to the contractually obligated period, the excess, if any, between the amount the customer is contractually required to pay over the cumulative amount of revenue recognized to date is recognized as incremental revenue upon return.
Rental equipment is leased primarily under operating leases and, from time to time, under sales-type lease arrangements. Operating lease minimum contractual terms generally range from 1 month to 60 months and averaged approximately 10 months across the Company's rental fleet for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
Services Revenue (ASC 606)
The Company generally has three non-lease service-related performance obligations in its contracts with customers:
Delivery and installation of the modular or portable storage unit;
Maintenance and other ad hoc services performed during the lease term; and
Removal services that occur at the end of the lease term.
Consideration is allocated to each of these performance obligations within the contract based upon their estimated relative standalone selling prices using the estimated cost plus margin approach. Revenue from these activities is recognized as the services are performed.
Sales Revenue (ASC 606)
Sales revenue is generated by the sale of new and used units. Revenue from the sale of new and used units is generally recognized at a point in time upon the transfer of control to the customer, which occurs when the unit is delivered and installed in accordance with the contract. Sales transactions constitute a single performance obligation.

Major Product and Service Lines
Rental equipment leasing is the Company’s core business, which significantly impacts the nature, timing, and uncertainty of the Company’s revenue and cash flows. This includes rental of both modular space and portable storage units along with value added products and services ("VAPS"), which include furniture, steps, ramps, basic appliances, internet connectivity devices, and other items used by customers in connection with the Company's products. Rental equipment leasing is complemented by new product sales and sales of rental units. In connection with its leasing and sales activities, the Company provides services including delivery and installation, maintenance and ad hoc services, and removal services at the end of lease transactions.
The Company’s revenue by major product and service line for the three and six months ended June 30 is as follows:

(b) Primarily damage billings, delinquent payment charges, and other processing fees.
Receivables, Contract Assets and Liabilities
As reflected above, approximately 69% of the Company's rental revenue is accounted for under ASC 840 for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The customers that are responsible for the remaining revenue that is accounted for under ASC 606 (and ASC 605 prior to 2019) are generally the same customers that rent the Company's equipment. The Company manages credit risk associated with its accounts receivables at the customer level. Because the same customers generate the revenues that are accounted for under both ASC 606 and ASC 840, the discussions below on credit risk and the Company's allowance for doubtful accounts address the Company's total revenues.
Concentration of credit risk with respect to the Company's receivables is limited because of a large number of geographically diverse customers who operate in a variety of end user markets. The Company's top five customers with the largest open receivables balances represented 2.6% of the total receivables balance as of June 30, 2019. The Company manages credit risk through credit approvals, credit limits, and other monitoring procedures.
The Company's allowance for doubtful accounts reflects its estimate of the amount of receivables that it will be unable to collect based on specific customer risk and historical write-off experience. The Company's estimates reflect changing circumstances, including changes in the economy or in the particular circumstances of individual customers. Accordingly, the Company may be required to increase or decrease its allowance. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized bad debt expenses of $3.4 million and $6.3 million, respectively, within SG&A in its condensed consolidated statements of income, which included amounts written-off and changes in its allowances for doubtful accounts. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recognized bad debt expenses of $0.7 million and $2.3 million, respectively.
When customers are billed in advance, the Company defers recognition of revenue and reflects unearned revenue at the end of the period. As of January 1, 2019, the Company had approximately $32.1 million of deferred revenue that relates to removal services for lease transactions and advance billings for sale transactions, which are within the scope of ASC 606. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had approximately $44.9 million of deferred revenue relating to these services. These items are included in deferred revenue and customer deposits in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, $7.2 million of previously deferred revenue relating to removal services for lease transactions and advance billings for sale transactions was recognized as revenue.
The Company does not have material contract assets and it did not recognize any material impairments of any contract assets.
The Company's uncompleted contracts with customers have unsatisfied (or partially satisfied) performance obligations. For the future services revenues that are expected to be recognized within twelve months, the Company has elected to utilize the optional disclosure exemption made available regarding transaction price allocated to unsatisfied (or
14



partially unsatisfied) performance obligations. The transaction price for performance obligations that will be completed in greater than twelve months is variable based on the costs ultimately incurred to provide those services and therefore the Company is applying the optional exemption to omit disclosure of such amounts.
The primary costs to obtain contracts with the Company's customers are commissions. The Company pays its sales force commissions on the sale of new and rental units. For new and rental unit sales, the period benefited by each commission is less than one year. As a result, the Company has applied the practical expedient for incremental costs of obtaining a sales contract and will expense commissions as incurred.
Other Matters
The Company's ASC 606 revenues do not include material amounts of variable consideration, other than the variability noted for services arrangements expected to be performed beyond a twelve month period.
The Company's payment terms vary by the type and location of its customer and the product or services offered. The time between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant. While the Company may bill certain customers in advance, its contracts do not contain a significant financing component based on the short length of time between upfront billings and the performance of contracted services. For certain products, services, or customer types, the Company requires payment before the products or services are delivered to the customer.
Revenue is recognized net of taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.
The most significant estimates and judgments relating to ASC 606 revenues involve the estimation of relative stand-alone selling prices for the purpose of allocating consideration to the performance obligations in the Company's lease transactions.

As described in Note 2, the Company acquired ModSpace in August 2018. A preliminary valuation of the acquired net assets of ModSpace, as adjusted, resulted in the recognition of $178.3 million and $34.9 million of goodwill in the Modular - US segment and Modular - Other North America segments, as defined in Note 16. The Company expects to finalize the valuation of the acquired net assets of ModSpace within the one year measurement period from the date of acquisition.
Impairment Indicator Analysis
The Company had no goodwill impairment during the six months ended June 30, 2019. There were no indicators of impairment as of June 30, 2019. There were indicators of impairment as of December 31, 2018, as detailed below.
In December 2018, there was a significant decline in the debt and equity capital markets, including the Company’s stock price, which constituted an indicator of potential impairment in management's judgment. As a result, the Company performed an interim goodwill impairment test as of December 31, 2018. The interim impairment analysis determined that there was no impairment of goodwill for either the US or Canadian reporting units as of December 31, 2018. As of December 31, 2018, the US reporting unit continued to have a fair value in excess of carrying value of over 100%. The Canadian reporting unit was determined to have a fair value in excess of carrying value of less than 1% as of December 31, 2018.
The fair value of the reporting units at December 31, 2018 was determined based on the income approach, which requires management to make certain estimates and judgments for estimates of economic and market information in the discounted cash flow analyses.
There are inherent uncertainties and judgments involved when determining the fair value of the reporting units because the success of the reporting unit depends on the achievement of key assumptions developed by management including, but not limited to (i) achieving revenue growth through pricing, increased units on rent, increased penetration of value-added products and services, and other commercial strategies, (ii) efficient management of the Company's operations and the Company's fleet through maintenance and capital investment, and (iii) achieving margin expectations, including integration synergies with acquired companies.
In addition, some of the estimates and assumptions used in determining fair value of the reporting units utilize inputs that are outside the control of management and are dependent on market and economic conditions, such as the discount rate, foreign currency rates, and growth rates. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and deterioration of market and economic conditions would adversely impact the Company's ability to meet its projected results and would affect the fair value of the reporting units.
Of the key assumptions that impact the goodwill impairment test, the expected future cash flows, discount rate and foreign exchange rates are among the most sensitive and are considered to be critical assumptions. If any one of the above inputs changes, it could reduce or increase the estimated fair value of the affected reporting unit. A reduction in the fair value of a reporting unit could result in an impairment charge up to the full amount of goodwill reported.
Although the Company believes that it has sufficient historical and projected information available to test for goodwill impairment, it is possible that actual results could differ from the estimates used in its impairment tests. As a result, the Company continues to monitor actual results versus forecast results and internal and external factors that may impact the enterprise value of the reporting unit.

The Company allocated $3.9 million and $0.1 million of the favorable lease rights to the Modular - US segment and Modular - Other North America segments, as defined in Note 16, respectively. The ModSpace trade name has an estimated useful life of three years and the favorable lease assets are amortized over the life of the leases. The Company expects the intangibles to be non-deductible for income tax purposes.
The aggregate amortization expense for intangible assets subject to amortization was $0.3 million and $0.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2019, $0.3 million was recorded in other depreciation and amortization expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, $0.5 million was recorded in other depreciation and amortization expense and $0.3 million related to the favorable lease rights was recorded in SG&A, respectively. The aggregate amortization expense for intangible assets subject to amortization was $0.2 million and $0.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, which was recorded in other depreciation and amortization expense.
The Company recognized an impairment charge of $2.4 million in impairment losses on long-lived assets during the three months ended June 30, 2019 as a result of the closure of a branch location with a favorable lease asset which was acquired in the ModSpace acquisition.

NOTE 10 – Income Taxes
The Company recorded income tax benefit of $1.2 million and $0.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $6.6 million and $7.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.
The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was 9.1% and 3.4%, respectively, and 106.1% and 52.3% for the same periods of 2018. The Company did not recognize a tax benefit for loss from operations for the three or six months ended June 30, 2019 as it is not more likely than not that the benefit is realizable. A tax benefit will be recognized only when there is sufficient income to support realizability. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 is materially driven by discrete items.
In addition, the Company recognized tax benefit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 of $1.2 million and $0.8 million, and $4.4 million and $4.7 million, respectively, mainly related to enacted legislative changes in the second quarter of 2019 and 2018, discrete to the quarter.

NOTE 11 - Fair Value Measures
The fair value of financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.
The Company utilizes the suggested accounting guidance for the three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 -Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 -Observable inputs, other than Level 1 inputs in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 -Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions
The Company has assessed that the fair value of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, trade payables, capital lease and other financing obligations, and other current liabilities approximate their carrying amounts.
The following table shows the carrying amounts and fair values of financial assets and liabilities, including their levels in the fair value hierarchy:

The carrying value of the US ABL Facility, the Canadian ABL Facility, the 2022 Secured Notes and the 2023 Secured Notes includes $21.4 million, $1.0 million, $6.9 million and $8.1 million, respectively, of unamortized debt issuance costs as of June 30, 2019, which are presented as a direct reduction of the corresponding liability. The carrying value of the US ABL

Facility, the Canadian ABL Facility and the 2022 Secured Notes, the 2023 Secured Notes and the Unsecured Notes includes $25.1 million, $0.9 million, $7.7 million, $6.1 million and $1.1 million, respectively of unamortized debt issuance costs for the year ended December 31, 2018, which are presented as a direct reduction of the corresponding liability.
The carrying value of the US and Canadian ABL Facility, excluding debt issuance costs, approximates fair value as the interest rates are variable and reflective of market rates. The fair value of the 2022 Secured Notes, the 2023 Secured Notes and the Unsecured Notes is based on their last trading price at the end of each period obtained from a third party. The location and the fair value of derivative assets and liabilities designated as hedges in the condensed consolidated balance sheet are disclosed in Note 14.

NOTE 12 - Restructuring
Restructuring costs include charges associated with exit or disposal activities that meet the definition of restructuring under FASB ASC Topic 420, “Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations” (“ASC 420”).

Restructuring costs incurred under these plans include (i) one-time termination benefits related to employee separations, (ii) contract termination costs, and (iii) other related costs associated with exit or disposal activities including, but not limited to, costs for consolidating or closing facilities. Costs related to the integration of acquired businesses that do not meet the definition of restructuring under ASC 420, such as employee training costs, duplicate facility costs, and professional services expenses, are included within SG&A.
The Company incurred costs associated with restructuring plans designed to streamline operations and reduce costs of $1.2 million and $7.1 million, net of reversals, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, and $0.4 million and $1.1 million, net of reversals, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

NOTE 13 - Stock-Based Compensation
During the six months ended June 30, 2019, 478,400 time-based restricted stock units ("Time-Based RSUs") and 302,182 market-based restricted stock units ("Market-Based RSUs", and together with the Time-Based RSUs, the "RSUs"), and 52,755 restricted stock awards ("RSAs") were granted under the WillScot Corporation 2017 Incentive Award Plan (the "Plan"). No stock option awards were granted during the period.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019, 33,592 RSAs, 213,180 Time-Based RSUs, and 147,313 stock options vested in accordance with their terms, resulting in the issuance of 190,129 shares of common stock, net of 56,643 shares withheld to cover taxes. No RSAs were forfeited during the six months ended June 30, 2019. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, 34,191 Time-Based RSUs, 7,485 Market-Based RSUs, and 41,302 stock options were forfeited.
At June 30, 2019, 91,216 RSAs, 1,083,762 Time-Based RSUs, 294,697 Market-Based RSUs, and 400,642 stock options were unvested, with weighted average grant date fair values of $15.58, $12.77, $13.22, and $5.51, respectively.
Restricted Stock Awards
Compensation expense for RSAs recognized in SG&A on the condensed consolidated statements of operations was $0.2 million and $0.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, with associated tax benefits of $0.0 million and $0.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.
At June 30, 2019, there was $0.9 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to RSAs that is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period of 0.6 years.
Time-Based Restricted Stock Units
Compensation expense for Time-Based RSUs recognized in SG&A on the condensed consolidated statements of operations was $1.2 million and $1.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, with associated tax benefits of $0.0 million and $0.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 respectively.
At June 30, 2019, unrecognized compensation cost related to Time-Based RSUs totaled $12.5 million and is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period of 3.2 years.
Market-Based Restricted Stock Units
On March 21, 2019, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors granted 302,182 Market-Based RSUs, which vest based on achievement of the relative total stockholder return ("TSR") of The Company's common stock as compared to the TSR of the constituents of the Russell 3000 Index at grant date over the three-year period performance period. The target number of Market-Based RSUs may be adjusted from 0% to 150% based on the TSR attainment levels defined by the Compensation Committee. The 100% target payout is tied to performance at the 50% percentile, with a payout curve ranging from 0% (for performance less than the 25% percentile) to 150% (for performance at or above the 75% percentile). Vesting is also subject to continued service requirements through the vesting date. Each Market-Based RSU represents a contingent right to receive one share upon vesting of the Company’s Class A common stock, or its cash equivalent, as determined by the Compensation Committee.
The Market-Based RSUs were valued based on a Monte Carlo simulation model to reflect the impact of the Market-Based RSU market condition, resulting in a grant-date fair value per Market-Based RSU of $13.22. The probability of satisfying a market condition is considered in the estimation of the grant-date fair value for Market-Based RSUs and the compensation cost is not reversed if the market condition is not achieved, provided the requisite service has been provided.
Compensation expense for Market-Based RSUs recognized in SG&A on the condensed consolidated statements of operations was $0.3 million and $0.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, with an associated tax benefit of $0.0 million and $0.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. At June 30, 2019, unrecognized compensation cost related to Market-Based RSUs totaled $3.5 million and is expected to be recognized over the remaining vesting period of 2.7 years.
Stock Option Awards
Compensation expense for stock option awards, recognized in SG&A on the condensed consolidated statements of operations, was $0.2 million and $0.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, with an associated tax benefit of $0.0 million and $0.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.
At June 30, 2019, unrecognized compensation cost related to stock option awards totaled $2.0 million and is expected to be recognized over the remaining vesting period of 2.7 years.

NOTE 14 - Derivatives
On November 6, 2018, WSII entered into an interest rate swap agreement (the “Swap Agreement”) with a financial counterparty that effectively converts $400.0 million in aggregate notional amount of variable-rate debt under the Company’s ABL Facility into fixed-rate debt. The Swap Agreement will terminate on May 29, 2022, at the same time the Company’s ABL Facility matures. The Swap Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants and may be terminated prior to its expiration.
The Swap Agreement was designated and qualified as a hedge of the Company’s exposure to changes in interest payment cash flows created by fluctuations in variable interest rates on the ABL Facility. Although no significant ineffectiveness
24



is expected with this hedging strategy, the effectiveness of the interest rate swaps is evaluated on a quarterly basis. The Company did not have any derivative financial instruments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.
The following table summarizes the outstanding interest rate swap arrangement as of June 30, 2019:

The fair value of the interest rate swap is based on dealer quotes of market forward rates, a Level 2 input on the fair value hierarchy, and reflects the amount that the Company would receive or pay as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, for contracts involving the same attributes and maturity dates.
The interest rate swap, excluding the impact of taxes, resulted in a loss recognized of $5.1 million and $8.0 million in other comprehensive income ("OCI") for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. The Company reclassified $0.6 million and $1.2 million from AOCL into interest expense on the condensed consolidated income statement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.
Cash flows from derivative instruments are presented within net cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

NOTE 15 - Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is involved in various lawsuits or claims in the ordinary course of business. Management is of the opinion that there is no pending claim or lawsuit which, if adversely determined, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 16 - Segment Reporting
Subsequent to the Business Combination, the Company historically has operated in one principal line of business: modular leasing and sales.
Modular leasing and sales is comprised of two operating segments: US and Other North America. The US modular operating segment (“Modular - US”) consists of the contiguous 48 states and Hawaii. The Other North America operating segment (“Modular - Other North America”) consists of Alaska, Canada and Mexico. Total assets for each reportable segment are not available because the Company utilizes a centralized approach to working capital management. Transactions between reportable segments are not significant.
The Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") evaluates business segment performance on Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes certain items as shown in the reconciliation of the Company’s consolidated net loss before tax to Adjusted EBITDA below. Management believes that evaluating segment performance excluding such items is meaningful because it provides insight with respect to intrinsic operating results of the Company.
The Company also regularly evaluates gross profit by segment to assist in the assessment of its operational performance. The Company considers Adjusted EBITDA to be the more important metric because it more fully captures the business performance of the segments, inclusive of indirect costs.

NOTE 17 - Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share (“LPS”) is calculated by dividing net loss attributable to WillScot by the weighted average number of Class A common shares outstanding during the period. The common shares issued a result of the vesting of RSUs and RSAs as of June 30, 2019, were included in LPS based on the weighted average number of days in which they were vested and outstanding during the period. Concurrently with the Business Combination, 12,425,000 of WillScot's Class A common shares were placed into escrow by shareholders and became ineligible to vote or participate in the economic rewards available to the other Class A shareholders. Escrowed shares were therefore excluded from the LPS calculation while deposited in the escrow account. 6,212,500 of the escrowed shares were released to shareholders on January 19, 2018, and the remaining escrowed shares were released to shareholders on August 21, 2018.
Class B common shares have no rights to dividends or distributions made by the Company and, in turn, are excluded from the LPS calculation.
Diluted LPS is computed similarly to basic LPS, except that it includes the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities were exercised. Effects of potentially dilutive securities are presented only in periods in which they are dilutive. Stock options, Time-Based RSUs, and RSAs, representing 400,642, 1,083,762, and 91,216 shares of Class A common stock outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. Market-based RSUs representing 294,697 shares of Class A common stock outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, which can vest at 0% to 150% of the amount granted, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. Warrants representing 22,183,513 shares of Class A shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
Stock options and restricted stock units, representing 589,257 and 886,680 shares of Class A common stock outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
Pursuant to the exchange agreement entered into by WS Holding's shareholders, Sapphire has the right, but not the obligation, to exchange all, but not less than all, of its shares of WS Holdings into newly issued shares of WillScot’s Class A common stock in a private placement transaction. The impact of this exchange has been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would have been anti-dilutive.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to help the reader understand WillScot Corporation ("WillScot"), our operations and our present business environment. Unless the context otherwise requires, “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” refers to WillScot and its subsidiaries. MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto, contained in Part I, Item 1 of this report.
We use certain non-GAAP financial information that we believe is important for purposes of comparison to prior periods and development of future projections and earnings growth prospects. This information is also used by management to measure the profitability of our ongoing operations and analyze our business performance and trends. Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures are provided in the Other Non-GAAP Financial Data and Reconciliations section.
Executive Summary and Outlook
We are the leading provider of modular space and portable storage solutions in the United States (“US”), Canada and Mexico. As of June 30, 2019, our branch network included over 120 locations and additional storage lots to service more than 50,000 customers across the US, Canada and Mexico. We offer our customers an extensive selection of “Ready to Work” modular space and portable storage solutions and now manage a fleet of approximately 130,000 modular space units and over 26,000 portable storage units. We remain focused on our core priorities of growing modular leasing revenues by increasing modular space units on rent, both organically and through our consolidation strategy, delivering “Ready to Work” solutions to our customers with value added products and services ("VAPS"), and on continually improving the overall customer experience.
Since the end of 2017, we have complemented our already strong organic growth by acquiring and integrating regional and national competitors in Acton Mobile Holdings LLC (“Acton”) (acquired in December 2017) and Modular Space Holdings, Inc. ("ModSpace") (acquired in August 2018). The remaining integration activities for these acquisitions as of June 30, 2019 primarily consist of continued real estate exits and the related fleet relocations required to exit these properties. As of June 30, 2019, we have completed approximately 65% of our planned real estate exits, and the remaining exits will continue during the remainder of 2019 and into 2020. Two held for sale properties were also sold during the second quarter for net proceeds of $8.6 million. These exits, along with other integration actions to date, have allowed us to realize approximately $21.2 million of synergies to date. Approximately 49% of the annualized forecasted cost synergies of $70 million were in our run rate as of June 30, 2019. These acquisitions, coupled with WillScot's innovative "Ready to Work" solutions and commitment to customer service, have solidified WillScot's market leading position.
For the three months ended June 30, 2019, key drivers of financial performance include:
Increased total revenues by $125.8 million, or 89.7%, as compared to the same period in 2018, driven by a $111.4 million, or 84.0% increase in our core leasing and services revenues from both organic pricing growth, and due to the impact of the ModSpace acquisition discussed in Note 2 of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. New and rental unit sales increased 123.1% and 337.5%, respectively, also driven by acquisitions, and by several large rental unit sales in the Modular - Other North America segment in the current year.
Consolidated modular space average monthly rental rate increased to $611 representing a 10.9% increase year over year.
Consolidated modular space units on rent increased 37,779 or 69.3% year over year, driven by the ModSpace acquisition, and average modular space utilization increased 160 basis points (“bps”) year over year to 71.9%.
On a pro forma basis, including results of WillScot and ModSpace for all periods presented, total revenues increased $4.2 million, or 1.6%, as compared to the same period in 2018, driven by increases in core leasing revenues as a result of continued rate improvements that drove pro forma modular leasing revenues to increase $15.8 million, or 9.2%. Increases in pro forma modular leasing revenues were partially offset by decreased delivery and installation revenues of $6.1 million, or 9.7%, reduced new sales, which declined $4.8 million, or 29.4%, and decreased rental unit sales, which declined $0.7 million, or 6.5%.
Pro forma average monthly rental rates increased 15.1% year over year, pro forma units on rent decreased 4.1% year over year, and pro forma utilization was flat on a consolidated basis.

33



Increased Modular - US segment revenues, which represent 89.8% of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2019, by $114.1 million, or 91.4%, as compared to the same period in 2018, through:
Modular space average monthly rental rate of $612, increased 11.5% year over year including the dilutive impacts of acquisitions. Improved pricing was driven by a combination of our price optimization tools and processes, as well as by continued growth in our “Ready to Work” solutions and increased VAPS penetration across our customer base; and
Average modular space units on rent increased 34,276, or a 70.0% year over year increase, due to the ModSpace acquisition; and
Average modular space monthly utilization increased 190 basis points (“bps”) to 74.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. This increase was driven by higher utilization on the acquired ModSpace fleet as compared to the overall average utilization for the three months ended June 30, 2018, which included the fleet recently acquired from Acton and Onsite Space LLC (d/b/a Tyson Onsite (“Tyson”)).
On a pro forma basis, including results of WillScot and ModSpace for all periods presented, average modular space monthly rental rate increased 16.1%, which is the seventh consecutive quarter of double digit growth. Average modular space units on rent were down 4.2% versus the prior year, however, the performance of pricing and VAPS revenue have more than offset these declines. Pro forma average modular space monthly utilization increased 20 bps to 74.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2019.
Increased Modular - Other North America segment revenues which represented 10.2% of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2019, by $11.8 million, or 76.1% as compared to the same period in 2018. Increases were driven primarily by:
Average modular space monthly rental rate increased 5.2% to $603; and
Average modular space units on rent increased by 3,503 units, or 63.4% as compared to the same period in 2018 driven primarily by acquired units from the ModSpace transaction; and
Average modular space monthly utilization decreased by 80 bps as compared to the same period in 2018 to 56.3%.
On a pro forma basis, including results of WillScot and ModSpace for all periods presented, average modular space monthly rental rate increased 5.6% and average modular space units on rent decreased 2.4%. Pro forma average modular space monthly utilization decreased 50 bps to 56.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2019.
Generated a consolidated net loss of $11.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, which included $19.4 million of discrete costs expensed in the period related to the ModSpace integration and loss on extinguishment of debt related to the redemption of our 10% senior unsecured notes (the "Unsecured Notes"). Discrete costs of $19.4 million in the period included $8.2 million of integration costs, a $7.2 million loss on extinguishment of debt related to the redemption of our senior unsecured notes, $2.8 million of impairment losses on long-lived assets associated with real estate consolidations, and $1.2 million of restructuring cost. This compares to a consolidated net loss of $0.4 million for same period in 2018, which included $0.4 million of restructuring cost and $4.8 million of integration cost related to the Acton and Tyson acquisitions.
Generated Adjusted EBITDA of $88.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, representing an increase of $46.8 million or 111.7% as compared to the same period in 2018, which includes the impact of the ModSpace acquisition, as well as partial realization of commercial and cost synergies associated with the Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace acquisitions. Adjusted EBITDA for the Modular - US segment and the Modular - Other North America segment, respectively, was $81.4 million and $7.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019.
Continued our efforts to optimize our capital structure by completing a tack-on offering of $190 million in aggregate principal amount to our 6.875% senior secured notes due 2023 (the "Tack-on Notes"), using the net proceeds to repay a portion of outstanding borrowings under our asset-backed revolving credit facility (the “ABL Facility”). Subsequently in the quarter, we redeemed all $200 million in aggregate principal amount of our outstanding Unsecured Notes. The resulting impact of these actions is expected to reduce our go-forward interest expense by approximately $6.0 million annually.
Our customers operate in a diversified set of end-markets, including commercial and industrial, construction, education, energy and natural resources, government and other end-markets. We track several market leading indicators including those related to our two largest end markets, the commercial and industrial segment and the construction segment, which collectively accounted for approximately 84% of our revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2019. We believe market fundamentals underlying these markets remain favorable, and we expect continued modest market growth in the next several years. As a result of the potential for increased capital spending due to tax reform in the US, discussions of increased infrastructure spending, and rebuilding in areas impacted by natural disasters in 2017 and 2018 across the US, we are confident that we will continue to see demand for our products.

Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 2019 and 2018
Revenue: Total revenue increased $125.8 million, or 89.7%, to $266.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $140.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was primarily the result of an 84.0% increase in leasing and services revenue driven by increased volumes from acquisitions and improved pricing. Increased volumes were driven by units acquired as part of the ModSpace acquisition, as well as increased modular delivery and installation revenues on the combined rental fleet of 79.9% due to increased transaction volumes and higher revenues per transaction. Average modular space monthly rental rates increased 10.9% to $611 for the three months ended June 30, 2019, and average modular space units on rent increased 37,779 units, or 69.3%. Improved pricing was driven by a combination of our price optimization tools and processes, as well as by continued growth in our “Ready to Work” solutions and increased VAPS penetration across our customer base, offset partially by lower average modular space monthly rental rates on acquired units for ModSpace. The increase in leasing and services revenue was further complemented by increases of $6.4 million, or 123.1%, and $8.1 million, or 337.5%, on new unit and rental unit sales, respectively, as compared to the same period in 2018. Increases in both new and rental unit sales were primarily a result of our increased scale as a result of the ModSpace acquisition and our larger post-acquisition fleet size and sales teams. The large increase in rental unit sales was driven by the
35



Modular - Other North America segment.
On a pro forma basis, including results of WillScot and ModSpace for all periods presented, total revenues increased $4.2 million, or 1.6%, year-over-year for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Increases were driven by core leasing revenues, which increased $15.8 million, or 9.2%, as a result of a 15.1% increase in average modular space monthly rental rates. These increases were partially offset by decreased delivery and installation revenues of $6.1 million, or 9.7%, reduced new sales, which declined $4.8 million, or 29.4%, and decreased rental unit sales, which declined $0.7 million, or 6.5%.
Total average units on rent for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were 108,844 and 68,017, respectively. The increase is due to units acquired as part of the ModSpace acquisition, with modular space average units on rent increasing 37,779 units, or 69.3%, for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Modular space average monthly rental rates increased 10.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Portable storage average units on rent increased by 3,048 units, or 22.6%, for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Average portable storage monthly rental rates increased 1.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The average modular space unit utilization rate during the three months ended June 30, 2019 was 71.9%, as compared to 70.3% during the same period in 2018. This increase was driven by higher utilization on the acquired ModSpace fleet as compared to the overall average utilization for the three months ended June 30, 2018, which included the fleet acquired from Acton and Tyson. The average portable storage unit utilization rate during the three months ended June 30, 2019 was 63.3%, as compared to 68.1% during the same period in 2018. The decrease in average portable storage utilization rate was driven by organic declines in the number of portable storage average units on rent.
Gross Profit: Our gross profit percentage was 39.0% and 38.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Our gross profit percentage, excluding the effects of depreciation, was 55.6% and 55.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Gross profit increased $49.3 million, or 90.3%, to $103.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $54.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in gross profit is a result of a $65.0 million increase in modular leasing and services gross profit and increased new unit and rental unit gross profit of $4.8 million. Increases in modular leasing and services gross profit were primarily as a result of increased revenues due to additional units on rent as a result of recent acquisitions as well as increased margins due to favorable average monthly rental rates on modular space units and increased delivery and installation margins driven primarily by higher pricing per transaction. These increases were partially offset by increased depreciation of $20.5 million as a result of additional rental equipment acquired as part of the ModSpace acquisition, as well as continued capital investment in our existing rental equipment.
SG&A: Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") increased $23.9 million, or 50.1%, to $71.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $47.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The primary drivers of the increases are related to increased employee costs of $10.3 million driven by the increased size of the workforce, net of realized employee cost synergies savings to date achieved as a result of the restructuring activities; and increased occupancy costs of $3.3 million largely due to the expansion of our branch network and storage lots, including a portion of the expected cost savings as we have now exited approximately 65% of redundant real estate locations.
Discrete items with SG&A decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018, by $0.3 million as an increase in integration cost of $3.0 million related to the Acton and ModSpace integrations and an increase in stock compensation expense of $0.8 million, were fully offset by a decrease of $4.1 million in transaction costs.
The remaining increases of $10.6 million are related to increased professional fees, insurance, computer, travel, office, bad debt, and other expenses related to operating a larger business as a result of our recent acquisitions and our expanded employee base and branch network.
We estimate cost synergies of approximately $7.5 million related to the Acton and ModSpace acquisitions were realized in the three months ended June 30, 2019, which compares to approximately $1.3 million of synergies realized in three months ended June 30, 2018, bringing cumulative synergies related to the Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace acquisitions as of June 30, 2019 to approximately $21.2 million. This is consistent with our integration plans and we expect these activities to continue through 2019 as we continue our efforts to achieve expected annual recurring cost savings of over $70.0 million once our integration plans are fully executed and in our results.
Other Depreciation and Amortization: Other depreciation and amortization increased $1.6 million, or 100.0%, to $3.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was driven primarily by depreciation on property, plant and equipment and amortization of the trade name acquired as part of the ModSpace acquisition in the third quarter of 2018.
Impairment losses on Long-Lived Assets: Impairment losses on property, plant and equipment were $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to $0.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. In the current period, we reclassified a branch facility that we intend to exit to held for sale and recognized an impairment on the related assets as the carrying value of the assets exceeded the estimated fair value less cost to sell. Additionally, one of the properties exited during the period was acquired as part of the ModSpace acquisition and had a favorable lease intangible. As a result of the exit of this property, the remaining net book value of the favorable lease intangible was deemed impaired, resulting in an impairment charge of $2.4 million.
Restructuring Costs: Restructuring costs were $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The 2019 restructuring charges relate primarily to employee
36



termination and lease breakage costs related to the ModSpace acquisition and integration. The 2018 restructuring charges relate primarily to employee termination and lease breakage costs related to the Acton and Tyson acquisitions and integrations.
Currency (Gains) Losses, net: Currency gains, net increased by $1.0 million to a $0.4 million gain for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to a $0.6 million loss for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in currency gains in 2019 was primarily attributable to the impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes on loans and borrowings and intercompany receivables and payables denominated in a currency other than the subsidiaries’ functional currency.
Other Income, Net: Other income, net was $1.3 million and $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Other income, net of $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was related to the receipt of $1.1 million of insurance proceeds related to assets damaged during Hurricane Harvey in the second quarter. Other income, net of $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was also driven by the receipt of insurance proceeds related to assets damaged during Hurricane Harvey and contributed $1.8 million to other income, net, for the three months ended June 30, 2018.
Interest Expense: Interest expense increased $20.3 million, or 166.4%, to $32.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $12.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The interest costs incurred during the three months ended June 30, 2018 relate to the change in the debt structure of the Company as a result of the ModSpace acquisition. In the third quarter of 2018, as part of financing the ModSpace acquisition, we upsized our ABL Facility to $1.425 billion, issued $300.0 million of senior secured notes (the "2023 Secured Notes"), and issued the Unsecured Notes. Further, in the second quarter of 2019 we issued $190.0 million of Tack-on Notes in aggregate principal amount to the 2023 Secured Notes and used the proceeds to repay a portion of the ABL Facility. Subsequent to the issuance of the Tack-on Notes, we redeemed all $200.0 million in aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Unsecured Notes using proceeds from the ABL Facility. See Note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our debt.
Loss on Extinguishment of Debt: Loss on extinguishment of debt increased $7.2 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $0.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. This loss is attributable to the repayment of $200.0 million in aggregate outstanding principal of the Unsecured Notes in the second quarter at a redemption price of 102.0%, plus a make-whole premium of 1.1%, for total premiums of 3.1%. As a result, the Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of $7.2 million, which included $6.2 million of premium and $1.0 million related to the write-off of unamortized deferred financing fees. This redemption was funded from the use of proceeds from the ABL Facility.
Income Tax Benefit: Income tax benefit decreased $5.4 million to $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $6.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease in income tax benefit was driven by the discrete benefits recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2018 which did not occur in the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 and 2018
Revenue: Total revenue increased $246.0 million, or 89.4%, to $521.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $275.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was primarily the result of an 84.4% increase in leasing and services revenue driven by increased volumes from acquisitions and improved pricing. Increased volumes were driven by units acquired as part of the ModSpace acquisition, as well as increased modular delivery and installation revenues on the combined rental fleet of 85.1% due to increased transaction volumes and higher revenues per transaction. Average modular space monthly rental rates increased 9.2% to $593 for the six months ended June 30, 2019, and average modular space units on rent increased 38,481 units, or 70.8%. Improved pricing was driven by a combination of our price optimization tools and processes, as well as by continued growth in our “Ready to Work” solutions and increased VAPS penetration across our customer base, offset partially by the average modular space monthly rental rates on acquired units for ModSpace. The increase in leasing and services revenue was further complemented by increases of $13.8 million, or 108.7%, and $15.9 million, or 256.5%, on new unit and rental unit sales, respectively, as compared to the same period in 2018. Increases in both new and rental unit sales were primarily a result of our increased scale as a result of the ModSpace acquisition and our larger post-acquisition fleet size and sales teams. The large increase in rental unit sales was driven by the Modular - Other North America segment.
38



On a pro forma basis, including results of WillScot and ModSpace for all periods presented, total revenues increased $15.1 million, or 3.0%, year-over-year for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Increases were driven by core leasing revenues, which increased $30.3 million, or 9.0%, as a result of a 13.6% increase in average modular space monthly rental rates. These increases were partially offset by decreased delivery and installation revenues of $6.9 million, or 6.1%, reduced new sales, which declined $7.9 million, or 23.0%, and decreased rental unit sales, which declined $0.4 million, or 1.7%.
Total average units on rent for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were 109,815 and 68,126, respectively. The increase was due to units acquired as part of the ModSpace acquisition, with modular space average units on rent increasing 38,481 units, or 70.8%, for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Modular space average monthly rental rates increased 9.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Portable storage average units on rent increased by 3,208 units, or 23.2%, for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Average portable storage monthly rental rates increased 1.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The average modular space unit utilization rate during the six months ended June 30, 2019 was 72.2%, as compared to 70.3% during the same period in 2018. This increase was driven by higher utilization on the acquired ModSpace fleet as compared to the overall average utilization for the six months ended June 30, 2018, which included the fleet acquired from Acton and Tyson. The average portable storage unit utilization rate during the six months ended June 30, 2019 was 65.0%, as compared to 69.4% during the same period in 2018. The decrease in average portable storage utilization rate was driven by an increase in the number of portable storage average units on rent in the Modular - US segment.
Gross Profit: Our gross profit percentage was 40.0% and 38.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Our gross profit percentage, excluding the effects of depreciation, was 56.3% and 55.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Gross profit increased $103.0 million, or 97.5%, to $208.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $105.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in gross profit is a result of a $132.1 million increase in modular leasing and services gross profit and increased new unit and rental unit gross profit of $8.6 million. Increases in modular leasing and services gross profit were primarily as a result of increased revenues due to additional units on rent as a result of recent acquisitions as well as increased margins due to favorable average monthly rental rates on modular space units and increased delivery and installation margins driven primarily by higher pricing per transaction. These increases were partially offset by increased depreciation of $37.8 million as a result of additional rental equipment acquired as part of the ModSpace acquisition, as well as continued capital investment in our existing rental equipment.
SG&A: SG&A increased $52.2 million, or 56.2%, to $145.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $92.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. $8.4 million of the SG&A increase was driven by discrete items during the period as integration cost increases of $10.5 million related to the Acton and ModSpace integrations and stock compensation expense increases of $2.0 million were partially offset by lower transaction costs, which reduced $4.1 million as compared to the prior year. Other drivers of the increase relate to increased employee costs of $20.2 million driven by the increased size of the workforce, net of realized employee cost synergies savings to date achieved as a result of the restructuring activities; and increased occupancy costs of $7.6 million largely due to the expansion of our branch network and storage lots, including a portion of the expected cost savings as we have now exited approximately 65% of redundant real estate locations. The remaining increases of $16.0 million are related to increased professional fees, insurance, computer, travel, office, bad debt, and other expenses related to operating a larger business as a result of our recent acquisitions and our expanded employee base and branch network.
We estimate cost synergies of approximately $14.8 million related to the Acton and ModSpace acquisitions were realized in the six months ended June 30, 2019, which compares to approximately $1.5 million of synergies realized for the six months ended June 30, 2018, bringing cumulative synergies related to the Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace acquisitions as of June 30, 2019 to approximately $21.2 million. This is consistent with our integration plans and we expect these activities to continue through 2019 as we continue our efforts to achieve expected annual reoccurring cost savings of over $70.0 million once our integration plans are fully executed and in our results.
Other Depreciation and Amortization: Other depreciation and amortization increased $2.2 million, or 55.0%, to $6.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $4.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was driven primarily by depreciation on property, plant and equipment and amortization of the trade name acquired as part of the ModSpace acquisition in the third quarter of 2018.
Impairment losses on Long-Lived Assets: Impairment losses on long-lived assets were $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to $0.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. In the current period, we reclassified certain branch facilities that we intend to exit from property, plant and equipment to held for sale and recognized an impairment on these assets as the estimated fair value less cost to sell was exceeded by the carrying value of the facilities. Additionally, one of the properties exited during the period was acquired as part of the ModSpace acquisition and had a favorable lease intangible. As a result of the exit of this property, the remaining net book value of the favorable lease intangible was deemed impaired, resulting in an impairment charge of $2.4 million.
Restructuring Costs: Restructuring costs were $7.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The 2019 restructuring charges relate primarily to employee termination and lease breakage costs related to the ModSpace acquisition and integration. The 2018 restructuring charges relate primarily to employee termination and lease breakage costs related to the Acton and Tyson acquisitions and integrations.

Currency (Gains) Losses, net: Currency gains, net increased by $2.3 million to a $0.7 million gain for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to a $1.6 million loss for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in currency gains, net, in 2019 was primarily attributable to the impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes on loans and borrowings and intercompany receivables and payables denominated in a currency other than the subsidiaries’ functional currency.
Other Income, Net: Other income, net was $2.2 million and $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Other income, net of $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily related to the receipt of a $0.9 million settlement in the first quarter and the receipt of $1.1 million of insurance proceeds related to assets damaged during Hurricane Harvey in the second quarter. Other income, net of $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was also driven by the receipt of insurance proceeds related to assets damaged during Hurricane Harvey and contributed $4.8 million to other income, net, for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
Interest Expense: Interest expense increased $40.6 million, or 169.9%, to $64.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $23.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The interest costs incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2018 relate to the change in the debt structure of the Company as a result of the ModSpace acquisition. In the third quarter of 2018, as part of financing the ModSpace acquisition, we upsized our ABL Facility to $1.425 billion, issued $300.0 million of 2023 Secured Notes, and issued $200.0 million of Unsecured Notes. Further, in the second quarter of 2019 we issued $190.0 million of Tack-on Notes in aggregate principal amount to the 2023 Secured Notes and used the proceeds to repay a portion of the ABL Facility. Subsequent to the issuance of the Tack-on Notes, we redeemed all $200.0 million in aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Unsecured Notes using proceeds from the ABL Facility. See Note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our debt.
Loss on Extinguishment of Debt: Loss on extinguishment of debt increased $7.2 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $0.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. This Company redeemed of $200.0 million in aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Unsecured Notes in the second quarter at a redemption price of 102.0%, plus a make-whole premium of 1.1%, for total premiums of 3.1%. As a result, the Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of $7.2 million, which included $6.2 million of premium and $1.0 million related to the write-off of unamortized deferred financing fees. This redemption was funded from the use of proceeds from the ABL Facility.
Income Tax Benefit: Income tax benefit decreased $6.3 million to $0.8 million benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to a $7.1 million benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease in income tax benefit was driven by the discrete benefits recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2018 which did not occur in the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Revenue: Total revenue increased $114.1 million, or 91.4%, to $238.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $124.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Modular leasing revenue increased $79.5 million, or 87.4%, driven by improved volumes and pricing. Average modular space units on rent increased 34,276 units, or 70.0%. Average modular space monthly rental rates increased 11.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Units acquired as part of the ModSpace acquisition helped drive improved volumes as well as increased modular delivery and installation revenues on the combined rental fleet of 93.4%. Improved pricing was driven by a combination of our price optimization tools and processes, as well as by continued growth in our “Ready to Work” solutions and increased VAPS penetration across our customer base, offset partially by the average modular space monthly rental rates on acquired units. The increases in leasing and services revenue were complemented by increases in sales revenues. New unit sales revenue increased $6.3 million, or 153.7%, and rental unit sales revenue increased $2.7 million, or 117.4%. The increase year-over-year in new sales was primarily driven by a single large sale project. Increases in rental unit sales were primarily a result of the ModSpace acquisition and our larger post-acquisition sales team and fleet size.
On a pro forma basis, including results of the WillScot and ModSpace for all periods presented, pricing improvement continued in the second quarter, with increases in pro forma average modular space monthly rental rates of $85, or 16.1%, year over year for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Modular space units on rent decreased 4.2% on a pro forma basis to 83,273 and pro forma utilization for our modular space units increased to 74.1%, up 20 bps from 73.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2018.
Gross Profit: Gross profit increased $45.1 million, or 90.7%, to $94.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $49.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in gross profit was driven by higher modular leasing and service revenues driven both by organic growth and through the ModSpace acquisition, as well as due to increased modular space leasing and modular space delivery and installation margins. The increase in gross profit from modular leasing and service revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was partially offset by a $19.0 million increase in depreciation of rental equipment primarily related to units acquired in the ModSpace acquisition.
Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA increased $43.3 million, or 113.6%, to $81.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $38.1 for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was driven by higher modular leasing and services gross profits discussed above, partially offset by increases in SG&A, excluding discrete items, of $21.4 million. Increases in SG&A, excluding discrete items, primarily related to increased employee costs of $9.5 million driven by the increased size of the workforce, net of realized employee cost synergies savings to date achieved as a result of the restructuring activities; and increased occupancy costs of $2.5 million largely due to the expansion of our branch network and storage lots, including a portion of the expected cost savings as we have now exited approximately 65% of redundant real estate locations. The remaining increases in SG&A of $9.4 million are primarily related to increased professional fees, insurance, computer, travel, office costs, bad debt and other expenses related to operating a larger business as a result of our recent acquisitions and our expanded employee base and branch network.
Capital Expenditures for Rental Equipment: Capital expenditures for rental equipment increased $27.2 million, or 87.7%, to $58.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $31.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Net capital expenditures for rental equipment also increased $25.0 million, or 91.9%, to $52.2 million. The increases for both were driven by increased spend for refurbishments and VAPS to drive revenue growth and for maintenance of a larger fleet following our recent acquisitions.
Modular - Other North America Segment
Revenue: Total revenue increased $11.8 million, or 76.1%, to $27.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $15.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Modular leasing revenue increased $6.8 million, or 66.0%, driven by improved volumes and pricing in the quarter. Average modular space units on rent increased by 3,503 units, or 63.4%, for the period, and average modular space monthly rental rates increased 5.2%. Improved volumes were driven by
41



units acquired as part of the ModSpace acquisition and improved pricing was driven primarily through continued growth in our “Ready to Work” solutions and increased VAPS penetration across the combined post-acquisition customer base. Modular delivery and installation revenues decreased $0.5 million, or 12.5%. New unit sales were $1.2 million and $1.1 million, and rental unit sales revenue was $5.5 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.  The increases in new unit sales and rental unit sales were primarily driven by the ModSpace acquisition, a single large rental unit sale project and our larger post-acquisition sales team and fleet size.
On a pro forma basis, including results of WillScot and ModSpace for all periods presented, pro forma average modular space monthly rental rates increased $32, or 5.6%, for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Modular space units on rent decreased 2.4% on a pro forma basis to 9,027 and pro forma utilization for our modular space units decreased to 56.3%, down 50 bps from 56.8%, for the three months ended June 30, 2018.
Gross Profit: Gross profit increased $4.2 million, or 85.7%, to $9.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $4.9 for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The effects of favorable foreign currency movements increased gross profit by less than $0.1 million related to changes in the Canadian dollar and Mexican peso in relation to the US dollar. The increase in gross profit, excluding the effects of foreign currency, was driven primarily by increased leasing and services revenues and margins as a result of higher modular space units on rent and average monthly rental rates. Additionally, rental unit sales gross profit increased due to higher volume. These increases were slightly offset by increased depreciation of rental equipment of $1.5 million for three months ended June 30, 2019.
Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA increased $3.5 million, or 92.1%, to $7.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. This increase was driven by increased leasing and services gross profit as a result of increased modular space volumes and average monthly rental rates, increased rental unit sales gross profit, partially offset by increased SG&A, excluding discrete items, of $2.1 million, also driven by the ModSpace acquisition, consisting primarily of increased employee costs of $0.8 million and increased occupancy costs of $0.8 million.
Capital Expenditures for Rental Equipment: Capital expenditures for rental equipment increased $1.3 million, or 76.5%, to $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was driven by increased spend for new fleet and VAPS to drive revenue growth and for maintenance of a larger fleet following the ModSpace acquisition. Net capital expenditures decreased $4.1 million, or 256.3%, to negative $2.5 million as a result of increased rental unit sales in the period that exceeded capital expenditures for rental equipment.

Other Non-GAAP Financial Data and Reconciliations
We use certain non-GAAP financial information that we believe is important for purposes of comparison to prior periods and development of future projections and earnings growth prospects. This information is also used by management to measure the profitability of our ongoing operations and analyze our business performance and trends.
We evaluate business segment performance on Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure that excludes certain items as described in the reconciliation of our consolidated net loss to Adjusted EBITDA reconciliation below. We believe that evaluating segment performance excluding such items is meaningful because it provides insight with respect to intrinsic operating results of the Company.
We also regularly evaluate gross profit by segment to assist in the assessment of the operational performance of each operating segment. We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be the more important metric because it more fully captures the business performance of the segments, inclusive of indirect costs.
Management also evaluates Free Cash Flow as defined in Item 2, Liquidity and Capital Resources, as it provides useful additional information concerning cash flow available to meet future debt service obligations and working capital requirements.
Adjusted EBITDA
We define EBITDA as net income (loss) plus interest (income) expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization. Our Adjusted EBITDA reflects the following further adjustments to EBITDA to exclude certain non-cash items and the effect of what we consider transactions or events not related to our core business operations:
Currency (gains) losses, net: on monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies other than the subsidiaries’ functional currency. Substantially all such currency gains (losses) are unrealized and attributable to financings due to and from affiliated companies.
Non-cash impairment charges associated with goodwill and other long-lived assets.
Restructuring costs associated with restructuring plans designed to streamline operations and reduce costs including employee and lease termination costs.
Transaction costs including legal and professional fees and other transaction specific related costs.
Costs to integrate acquired companies, including outside professional fees, fleet relocation expenses, employee training costs and other costs.
Non-cash charges for stock compensation plans.
Other expense includes consulting expenses related to certain one-time projects, financing costs not classified as interest expense and gains and losses on disposals of property, plant and equipment.

44



Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider the measure in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss), cash flow from operations or other methods of analyzing WillScot’s results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for our working capital needs;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our indebtedness;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact on earnings or changes resulting from matters that we consider not to be indicative of our future operations;
although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and
other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as discretionary cash available to reinvest in the growth of our business or as measures of cash that will be available to meet our obligations.

Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit Percentage
We define Adjusted Gross Profit as gross profit plus depreciation on rental equipment. Adjusted Gross Profit Percentage is defined as Adjusted Gross Profit divided by revenue. Adjusted Gross Profit and Percentage are not measurements of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to gross profit, gross profit percentage, or other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our measurement of Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit Percentage may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Management believes that the presentation of Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit Percentage provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations because it assists in analyzing the performance of our business.

Net CAPEX and Net CAPEX for Rental Equipment
We define Net Capital Expenditures ("Net CAPEX") and Net CAPEX for Rental Equipment as capital expenditures for purchases and capitalized refurbishments of rental equipment and purchases of property, plant and equipment (collectively "Total Capital Expenditures"), reduced by proceeds from the sale of rental equipment. Net CAPEX for Rental Equipment is defined as capital expenditures for purchases and capitalized refurbishments of rental equipment, reduced by proceeds from the sale of rental equipment. Our management believes that the presentation of Net CAPEX and Net CAPEX for Rental Equipment provides useful information to investors regarding the net capital invested into our rental fleet each year to assist in analyzing the performance of our business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
WillScot is a holding company that derives all of its operating cash flow from its operating subsidiaries. Our principal sources of liquidity include cash generated by operating activities from our subsidiaries, borrowings under the ABL Facility, and sales of equity and debt securities. We believe that our liquidity sources and operating cash flows are sufficient to address our operating, debt service and capital requirements over the next twelve months.
ABL Facility 
On November 29, 2017, WS Holdings, WSII and certain of its subsidiaries entered into the ABL Facility with an aggregate principal amount of up to $600.0 million.
In July and August 2018, the Company entered into three amendments to the ABL Facility that, among other things, (i) permitted the ModSpace acquisition and the Company’s financing thereof, (ii) increased the ABL Facility limit to $1.425 billion in the aggregate, with an accordion feature allowing up to $1.8 billion of capacity, and (iii) increased certain thresholds, basket sizes and default and notice triggers to account for the Company’s increased scale following the ModSpace Acquisition.
At June 30, 2019, the Borrowers had $486.9 million of available borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility, including $352.5 million under the US ABL Facility and $134.4 million under the Canadian ABL Facility.
Cash Flow Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 and 2018
Significant factors driving our liquidity position include cash flows generated from operating activities and capital expenditures. Our ability to fund our capital needs will be affected by our ongoing ability to generate cash from operations and access to capital markets.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $60.1 million as compared to $18.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, an increase of $41.3 million. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $51.6 million of net income, adjusted for non-cash items, during 2019 compared to 2018 due to the impact of the ModSpace acquisition on revenue and gross profit, which is reflected in the first half of 2019, but is not included in 2018. The increase in net income, adjusted for non-cash items, was partially offset by a decrease of $10.3 million in the net movements
46



of the operating assets and liabilities. The decrease related to the operating assets and liabilities was attributable to an increase in accounts receivable and an increase in cash interest payments in the first six months of 2019, partially offset by an increase in accounts payable and deferred revenue.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $85.0 million as compared to $77.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, an increase of $7.3 million. The overall increase in cash used in investing activities was driven by an increase in capital expenditures of $50.6 million in 2019 that was primarily a result of increased refurbishments of existing fleet, following our recent acquisitions, and purchases of VAPS to drive revenue growth. The increase in cash used in investing activities was partially offset by a $24.0 million decrease in cash used for business acquisitions, an $11.1 million increase in proceeds from the sale of rental equipment, and an $8.2 million increase in proceeds from the sale of property, plant, and equipment. The decrease in cash used in business acquisitions is due to the acquisition of Tyson in the first half of 2018 with no business acquisitions during the first half 2019. Proceeds from the sale of rental equipment increased due to increased sales volume as a result of the acquisition of ModSpace. Proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment increased primarily as a result of the sale of two held for sale properties during the second quarter of 2019 as part of the ongoing integration and consolidation process following the acquisition of ModSpace.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $21.4 million as compared to $58.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, a decrease of $36.6 million. The decrease is primarily driven by the repayment of the $200.0 million Unsecured Notes and the corresponding $6.2 million of premium payments, $17.0 million of decreased borrowings, net of repayments, on the Company's ABL Facility during 2019, and $2.7 million of payments of financing costs, net of premiums received, related to the Tack-on Notes. We borrowed $24.0 million on the ABL Facility to purchase Tyson in the first quarter of 2018, and did not have any acquisitions in 2019, which drove the overall decrease in borrowings on the ABL Facility. The decrease in cash provided by financing activities was partially offset by the issuance of $190.0 million of Tack-On Notes in the second quarter of 2019.
Free Cash Flow
Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP measure. Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities, less purchases of, and proceeds from, rental equipment and property, plant and equipment, which are all included in cash flows from investing activities. Management believes that the presentation of Free Cash Flow provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations because it provides useful additional information concerning cash flow available to meet future debt service obligations and working capital requirements. The following table provides a reconciliation of Net cash provided by operating activities to Free Cash Flow.
Six Months Ended June 30, 
(in thousands)20192018
Net cash provided by operating activities$60,054 $18,800 
Purchase of rental equipment and refurbishments(113,088)(64,763)

Purchase of property, plant and equipment(3,899)(1,616)
Proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment8,891 681 
Free Cash Flow$(24,959)$(34,865)
Free Cash Flow for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was an outflow of $25.0 million as compared to an outflow of $34.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, an increase in Free Cash Flow of $9.9 million. Free Cash Flow increased year over year principally driven by increases in Adjusted EBITDA of $95.8 million, or 123.8%, for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and an increase of $8.2 million in proceeds from the sale of property, plant, and equipment as a result of the sale of surplus real estate in the period. These increases were partially offset by an increase in integration, restructuring, and transaction costs incurred of $12.9 million primarily related to the ModSpace integration, increased interest paid during the period of $43.0 million due to increased debt on the US ABL Facility and as a result of the issuance of the 2023 Secured Notes and the Unsecured Notes which were not in place during the six months ended June 30, 2018, and a Net CAPEX increase of $39.6 million as a result of the increased fleet size and our investment in refurbishments of rental equipment and VAPS.

Contractual Obligations
Other than changes which occur in the normal course of business, there were no significant changes to the contractual obligations reported in our 2018 Form 10-K as updated in our Form 10-Q for the three and six months June 30, 2019.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and capital resources is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. GAAP requires that we make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base these estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we consider reasonable under the circumstances, and reevaluate our estimates and judgments as appropriate. The actual results experienced by us may differ materially and adversely from our estimates.
The US Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) suggests companies provide additional disclosure on those accounting policies considered most critical. The SEC considers an accounting policy to be critical if it is important to our financial condition and results of operations and requires significant judgments and estimates on the part of management in its application. For a complete discussion of our significant critical accounting policies, see the “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” section in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.
Other than adoption of recent accounting standards as discussed in Note 1 to the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, there were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Refer to Part I, Item 1, Note 1 of the notes to our financial statements included in this Form 10-Q for our assessment of recently issued and adopted accounting standards.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and Section 21E of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended. The words “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “forecasts,” “plans,” “intends,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “shall,” “outlook,” “guidance” and variations of these words and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which are generally not historical in nature and relate to expectations for future financial performance or business strategies or objectives.
Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are outside our control, which could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Although WillScot believes that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance that any such forward-looking statement will materialize.
Important factors that may affect actual results or outcomes include, among others:
our ability to effectively compete in the modular space and portable storage industry;
changes in demand within a number of key industry end-markets and geographic regions;
our ability to manage growth and execute our business plan;
rising costs adversely affecting our profitability (including cost increases resulting from tariffs);
effective management of our rental equipment;
our ability to acquire and successfully integrate new operations and achieve desired synergies;
the effect of changes in state building codes on our ability to remarket our buildings;
our ability to effectively manage our credit risk, collect on our accounts receivable, or recover our rental equipment;
foreign currency exchange rate exposure;
our reliance on third party manufacturers and suppliers;
risks associated with labor relations, labor costs and labor disruptions;
failure to retain key personnel;
and such other risks and uncertainties described in the periodic reports we file with the SEC from time to time (including our Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2018), which are available through the SEC’s EDGAR system at www.sec.gov and on our website.
Any forward-looking statement speaks only at the date which it is made, and WillScot undertakes no obligation, and disclaims any obligation, to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are exposed to certain market risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. Changes in these factors cause fluctuations in our earnings and cash flows. We evaluate and manage exposure to these market risks as follows:
Interest Rate Risk
We are primarily exposed to interest rate risk through our ABL Facility, which bears interest at variable rates based on LIBOR. We had $920.5 million in outstanding principal under the ABL Facility at June 30, 2019.
In order to manage this risk, On November 6, 2018, WSII entered into an interest rate swap agreement that effectively converts $400.0 million in aggregate notional amount of variable-rate debt under our ABL Facility into fixed-rate debt. The swap agreement provides for WillScot to pay a fixed rate of 3.06% per annum on the outstanding debt in exchange for receiving a variable interest rate based on 1-month LIBOR. The effect is a synthetically fixed rate of 5.56% on the $400.0 million notional amount, when including the current applicable margin.
An increase in interest rates by 100 basis points on our ABL Facility, inclusive of the impact of our interest rate swaps, would increase our quarter to date interest expense by approximately $2.3 million.
Foreign Currency Risk
We currently generate the majority of our consolidated net revenues in the US, and the reporting currency for our consolidated financial statements is the US dollar. As our net revenues and expenses generated outside of the US increase, our results of operations could be adversely impacted by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Since we recognize foreign revenues in local foreign currencies, if the US dollar strengthens, it could have a negative impact on our foreign revenues upon translation of those results into the US dollar for consolidation into our financial statements.
In addition, we are exposed to gains and losses resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates on transactions generated by our foreign subsidiaries in currencies other than their local currencies. These gains and losses are primarily driven by intercompany transactions and rental equipment purchases denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the purchasing entity. These exposures are included in currency (gains) losses, net, on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
To date, we have not entered into any hedging arrangements with respect to foreign currency risk.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of June 30, 2019. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2019.
Changes in Internal Controls
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our quarter ended June 30, 2019, that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings
As of June 30, 2019, there were no material pending legal proceedings in which we or any of our subsidiaries are a party or to which any of our property is subject.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors
The Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows are subject to various risks, many of which are not exclusively within the Company’s control, which may cause actual performance to differ materially from historical or projected future performance. In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Item 1A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, which have not materially changed other than as reflected below.
Trade policies and changes in trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs, their enforcement and downstream consequences, may have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, and outlook.
Tariffs and/or other developments with respect to trade policies, trade agreements, and government regulations could have a material adverse impact on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. For example, the United States government has imposed tariffs on steel, aluminum and lumber imports from certain countries, which could result in increased costs to the Company for these materials. Without limitation, (i) tariffs currently in place and (ii) the imposition by the federal government of new tariffs on imports to the United States could materially increase (a) the cost of our products that we are offering for sale or lease, (b) the cost of certain products that we source from foreign manufacturers, and (c) the cost of certain raw materials or products that we utilize. We may not be able to pass such increased costs on to our customers, and we may not be able to secure sources of certain products and materials that are not subject to tariffs on a timely basis. Although we actively monitor our procurement policies and practices to avoid undue reliance on foreign-sourced goods subject to tariffs, when practicable, such developments could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
