Forward Guidance
H&E Equipment Services plans to continue investing in its rental fleet and expanding its branch network in 2023.

Positive Outlook
- Non-residential and industrial backlogs remain strong, leading to an abundance of projects entering various stages of execution.
- Active project environment is expected to support favorable business conditions, including higher physical fleet utilization and modest sequential rental rate improvement as the year proceeds.
- Large private and federally funded construction projects addressing a variety of manufacturing and infrastructure build programs are increasingly apparent across our operating footprint.
- Participation in these opportunities is expected to increase throughout the year.
- Continuing equipment supply imbalance and the likelihood of further improvement in rental penetration represent favorable dynamics that reinforce a positive industry outlook.
