“Our strong organic growth and operating performance in the fourth quarter and full year reflects our flexible business model and our ability to produce strong financial results in a supply constrained market," said Ryan Greenawalt, Alta CEO. "Both our Construction and Material Handling business segments delivered consistent year over year revenue growth leading to a 44.6 percent increase in adjusted EBITDA. Our record level of new and used equipment sales in 2021 are expected to continue to drive future high-margin product support revenue.
“Looking ahead, we expect to see significant customer demand across all our business segments," Greenawalt said. "The growth in our core markets combined with our expanded capabilities in our material handling business, our entry into the electric vehicle market, and our recent acquisitions position us well for increased profitability and continued success.”
