- provided dividends of $1.1 million to our shareholders;

Outlook
Mosaic’s second quarter 2019 financial and operating results illustrate the positive impact of the Company’s ongoing focus to drive sustainable improvements at the portfolio company level as well as continued discipline with corporate overhead costs. With strong year-over-year growth contributions from the majority of our core operating segments, Mosaic delivered record second quarter levels of Adjusted EBITDA.
Looking into the second half of 2019, the Company is well positioned to continue its growth trend. While seasonality and the project related nature of certain operations pose risks to the precise timing of this growth profile, Management believes the Company is well situated for long-term growth and profitability.
Mark Gardhouse, President and CEO commented “Mosaic’s second quarter results represent a fourth consecutive quarter of record financial achievements. We have made a number of improvements to our management processes and oversight of our portfolio operations that have not only proven to be successful for near-term financial results but should also help drive long-term success. We are particularly pleased to deliver a continued reduction in our Combined Payout Ratio, exiting the second quarter of 2019 at an improved level of 66%. We look forward to the remainder of 2019 and into the future for the continued creation of long-term shareholder value.”
Mosaic’s growth strategy is centered on the acquisition of controlling equity interests in new portfolio companies with a specific focus on growing Free Cash Flow per share while maintaining a strong balance sheet. Supplementing this, Mosaic’s management team adds value with strong operational and strategic focus by actively engaging with its portfolio companies to improve results and capture growth opportunities.
Mosaic’s pipeline of high quality acquisition opportunities remains strong and the Company will continue to pursue its strategy to grow through new and tuck-in acquisitions with a focus on building an increasingly diversified portfolio of private, mid-market companies that offer strong free cash flow while maintaining a healthy balance sheet.
