Second quarter 2017 results were impacted by higher SG&A costs. The increase in SG&A was due primarily to higher professional fees associated with the previously announced cost savings initiatives and Sarbanes-Oxley compliance work. Bradley explained, "We have invested significantly in cost-cutting initiatives, integration of acquisitions and SOX compliance, and I expect that these costs will be substantially behind us as we head into 2018."
Bradley continued, "While our outlook for the third quarter of 2017 reflects a more challenging market environment than we had previously expected, I am confident that we are taking the right steps to improve our top line growth, lower our costs and increase our operating efficiency. We have made significant progress on our cost-cutting initiatives that I expect will materially lower our costs in 2018 and beyond."

Financial Outlook
The Company expects that the average sales prices in both segments in the third quarter of 2017 will be similar to the averages in the third quarter of 2016. However, the Company expects higher costs, including labor, freight and raw materials costs in the Drainage segment and scrap costs in the Water segment, will negatively impact margins as compared to the same period in the prior year. The Company also expects that the earnings contribution of the Canadian concrete and steel pressure pipe portion of the Water segment in the third quarter of 2017 will be negatively impacted by lower anticipated net sales as compared to the third quarter of 2016, consistent with the year over year trend from the second quarter of 2016 to the second quarter of 2017. The Company expects that costs in the Corporate segment in the third quarter of 2017 will be in line with costs in the first quarter of 2017, reflecting lower professional fees as compared to the second quarter of 2017. The Company expects that net income for the third quarter of 2017 will range from
Given the lower expectations for the balance of 2017, the Company is reassessing the timetable to achieve the previously announced target of a 400 basis point increase in income from operations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of sales as compared to full-year 2016. While the Company expects to see the benefit of its initiatives in 2018 and beyond and believes that there are further opportunities to reduce its costs and increase margins, the increased market uncertainty, as reflected in the lower expectations for full year 2017, reduces the Company's visibility to achieving the previously communicated margin expansion by 2019.
Asset Impairment
As of
During the second quarter of 2017, the Company performed interim goodwill impairment testing of the Canadian concrete and steel pressure pipe reporting unit after identifying indicators it was more-likely-than-not that the reporting unit's carrying value was in excess of its fair value. As a result of the interim impairment testing, the Company determined that the carrying value of the reporting unit's goodwill was fully impaired and a goodwill impairment charge of

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to our results calculated under generally accepted accounting principles in
Adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are presented in this earnings release because they are important metrics used by management as one of the means by which it assesses our financial performance. Adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are also frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. We use adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin as supplements to GAAP measures of performance to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to allocate resources and to compare our performance relative to our peers. Adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are also important measures for assessing our operating results and evaluating each operating segment’s performance on a consistent basis, by excluding the impacts of depreciation, amortization, income tax expense, interest expense and other items not indicative of ongoing operating performance. Additionally, these measures, when used in conjunction with related GAAP financial measures, provide investors with additional financial analytical framework which management uses, in addition to historical operating results, as the basis for financial, operational and planning decisions and present measurements that third parties have indicated are useful in assessing the Company and its results of operations.
Adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin have certain limitations. Adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to consolidated net income, and in the case of our segment results, adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to EBITDA, which the CODM reviews for purposes of evaluating segment profit, or in the case of any of the non-GAAP measures, as a substitute for any other measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. Similarly, adjusted EBITDA margin should not be considered as an alternative to gross margin or any other margin calculated in accordance with GAAP. These measures also should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items for which these non-GAAP measures make adjustments. Additionally, adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are not intended to be liquidity measures because of certain limitations such as: (i) they do not reflect our cash outlays for capital expenditures or future contractual commitments; (ii) they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital; (iii) they do not reflect interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest, or principal payments, on indebtedness; (iv) they do not reflect income tax expense or the tax necessary to pay income taxes; and (v) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and these non-GAAP measures do not reflect cash requirements for such replacements.
Other companies, including other companies in our industry, may not use such measures or may calculate one or more of the measures differently than as presented in this earnings release, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure. In evaluating adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, you should be aware that in the future we will incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments made in the calculations below and the presentation of adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin should not be construed to mean that our future results will be unaffected by such adjustments. Management compensates for these limitations by using adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin as supplemental financial metrics and in conjunction with results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
