2020 Integration, Optimization, and Expansion Strategy
Dirk Maritz, President and CEO of AEP stated, "Despite the challenges and effects posed by COVID-19, AEP remains in a solid financial position. AEP has strong liquidity and entered 2020 with an improved financial position over the previous year. We continue to grow our orderbook despite the unprecedented times. I am incredibly proud of my team's ability to respond quickly, significantly reduce costs from March onwards, return AEP to positive EBITDA margins and protect our cash reserves while increasing productivity and efficiency under physical distancing mandates. The AEP team counteracted the sudden lumber price free-fall as well as the incurred costs in Q4 2019 and Q1 2020 in anticipation of our acquisition plans for 2020. We have successfully eliminated the costs and we are optimistic about our targeted acquisitions for 2020. Upwards. Onwards."
In closing, the Company believes revenues for Quarter 2 2020 will show further improvement over Quarter 1 2020, and a return to strong, positive normalized EBITDA margins for Quarter 2 2020.
