Bruce Young -- Chief Executive Officer

Thank you, Cody, and good afternoon, everyone. It's great to be joining you today as we report our first full year as a public company. The year was filled with many transformative events that has positioned our company for continued success and shareholder value creation in the years to come. I'd like to recap a few of them.

First, we raised equity to help close the acquisition of Capital Pumping, an important strategic asset to strengthen our presence in the important high-growth Texas region. Capital added highly complementary assets and operations, roughly $50 million in pro forma revenue and $24 million in pro forma EBITDA to our base and a team that importantly share our core values. The heavy lifting aspect of the business integration have been completed as planned, and we look forward to continuing to realize the economic benefits of the two companies as they come together. The focus of our business integration efforts have included the combination of our safety programs, optimization our -- of our fleet management and equipment utilization and rationalizing our geographic footprint.

All of the efforts of our combined teams have been executed very well. We have achieved some operating leverage in the process, and our collective teams have done a truly outstanding job blending two high-performing organizations together. The next milestone event during the year was the warrant exchange, where we took important steps to simplify our capital structure by exchanging approximately 21 million out of 34 million warrants to roughly 62% of the total outstanding warrants for approximately 3.8 million shares of common stock. Finally, and as a sign of our continued confidence in the business, CPH management collectively exercised 57% of the rollover and incentive units received from the business combinations with Industrea, representing a $1.4 million cash infusion to the company.

Our team remains highly aligned with our shareholders with employees owning approximately 12% of the total shares outstanding. While Iain's comments today will largely focus on our fourth-quarter results, I would like to address some full-year metrics. Revenue was up 16% on the back of strong M&A execution that included securing the addition of the Capital Pumping business. These results show a healthy organic operating environment and demonstrate our ongoing ability to execute on M&A.

Equally as important, acquisitions really help galvanize our scale to secure impressive gross margins and EBITDA. During the year, gross margin grew 60 basis points to 44.3%; adjusted EBITDA increased 21% to $95.5 million, exceeding our outlook; and adjusted EBITDA margin increased 120 basis points to 33.7%. Included in these EBITDA results were not only Capital's higher margin revenue, but also the benefits of our scale in things like fuel pricing and procurement costs. The EBITDA contribution allowed us to pay down debt as planned.

We ended the year with a pro forma leverage ratio of 3.9 times, which is an improvement on the four times targeted ratio we provided in our prior outlook. EBITDA and leverage reduction are two important metrics we closely track as an organization, and I am encouraged by our progress. Now I'd like to hand the call over to Iain, so he can provide a detailed overview on our fourth-quarter financial results and introduce our outlook for fiscal-year 2020. I will return to provide more color on our outlook and to reiterate our priorities for shareholder value creation.

Iain?

Iain Humphries -- Chief Financial Officer

Thanks, Bruce, and good afternoon, everyone. Before getting into the details, I'd like to remind everyone that we refer to adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure and a reconciliation from net income to adjusted EBITDA can be found in the press release we issued earlier today. Also, please keep in mind, our business is seasonal, with approximately 45% of revenue is generated in the first half of the fiscal year and 55% in the second half. Additionally, our profitability is typically back-half weighted, while capital expenditure is largely front-half weighted as we take delivery of new equipment in the earlier months of the fiscal year to ensure we maximize our fleet uptime in our busiest periods.

Moving into 2019 fourth-quarter results. We generated strong top-line growth as Q4 revenue increased 25% to $84 million, compared to $67.4 million in the same year-ago quarter. The increase was largely driven by the contribution from the Capital acquisition, our organic growth in Brundage-Bone and Eco-Pan. These strong results were achieved despite roughly 40% of our U.S.

Concrete Pumping operations being shut down in the final week of our fiscal year due to a severe, early winter storm that delivered snow and rain from the Pacific Northwest down through our Idaho, Utah and Colorado regions and into our Texas market. While we estimate the revenue impact from this event was roughly $1.5 million, we expect this work will be recaptured in our early 2020 fiscal year. As I will address shortly, this period of brief inactivity had a minimal impact on our margin performance due to our team's excellent efforts in controlling our variable cost base. On a pro forma basis, which includes the results from acquisitions, both pre and post transaction, our Q4 revenue increased by approximately 5%.

Adjusting the pro forma revenue on a constant-currency basis, revenue was up by 6%. And in the fourth fiscal quarter, revenue in our U.S. Concrete Pumping segment mostly operated under the Brundage-Bone brand increased 35% to $62.1 million. The capital acquisition, which added additional pumping capacity to our Texas markets, drove approximately $13.5 million of the year-over-year increase.

Additionally, we experienced notable improvements in most markets including Oklahoma, where we are completing certain special projects, and our Idaho region benefited from an increase in billable hours. Our utilization in the U.S. Concrete Pumping business during the fourth quarter was approximately 82%, which has steadily increased from approximately 73% in Q2 and approximately 80% in Q3 2019. Pricing in the U.S.

also remains strong as revenue per build hour improved in the fourth quarter compared to the same year-ago quarter. For the full fiscal year, U.S. Concrete Pumping pricing and build hour volume on a pro forma basis improved by approximately 4% in total, with an equal split of growth between price and volume. Q4 2019 revenue in our U.K.

operations operating under the Camfaud brand was $13 million compared to $13.7 million in the same year-ago quarter. The small decline was primarily due to the continued strengthening of the U.S. dollar, which impacted the translation of our reported results. On a constant-currency basis, Camfaud's revenue in the fourth quarter was relatively flat due to some uncertainty in the U.K.

economy, primarily related to Brexit. In the U.K., average revenue per job in the fiscal-year 2019 steadily increased through the earlier quarters in the year, and the price per job in Q4 2019 was consistent with the same period last year. Revenue in our U.S. Concrete Waste Management Services segment, or Eco-Pan increased 18% to approximately $9 million in the fourth quarter.

The increase was driven by modest improvements in the majority of our markets and higher utilization of our assets. We experienced strong growth in our next tier markets as we continue integrating the Eco-Pan service into our Concrete Pumping footprint. Pans in the field, which are a leading indicator for future pickups, are at record levels. Price per pickup has been growing nicely this year, both sequentially and year over year, and increased 1% in the fourth quarter of 2019 when compared to the same year-ago quarter.

Turning back to our consolidated results. Gross profit in the fourth quarter increased 34% to $38.8 million compared to the same year-ago quarter, and gross margin increased 340 basis points to 46.3% compared to last year. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to the post-acquisition contribution from Capital Pumping, more favorable fuel pricing and continued improvement in our supply chain procurement costs. This was partially offset by the step-up in depreciation related to the Industrea business combination in December of 2018, as depreciation expense related to pumping equipment is included in our cost of operations.

General and administrative expenses in Q4 were $28.2 million compared to $15.9 million in the same year-ago quarter. As a percent of revenue, general and administrative expenses were 33.6% compared to 23.6% last year. The increase was largely due to a $7.9 million increase in amortization expense, mostly due to the business combination. The remainder of the increase was mostly attributable to an additional $1.6 million of stock-based compensation expense and headcount growth, predominantly from the Capital Pumping team members.

Net income attributable to common shareholders was $0.1 million or $0 per diluted share. Please note that our share count increased in the 2019 third quarter as a result of the secondary equity offering related to the Capital Pumping acquisition that was completed in May 2019 and the exchange of 21 million warrants for 3.8 million shares of common stock. Finally, adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter increased 33% to $29.6 million when compared to $22.3 million in the same year-ago quarter. Adjusted EBITDA margin improved by 220 basis points to 35.2%.

Revenue growth, gross margin improvement and procurement savings in parts and fuel drove the strong expansion. Additionally, a great job where our team producing the results despite the severe weather event in the last week of the year was an additional contributing factor. Turning to the balance sheet. As of October 31, 2019, we had $7.5 million of cash and $425.7 million of total debt.

These numbers reflect a $16 million reduction in net debt during the quarter. And as Bruce mentioned, we ended the year with a leverage ratio of 3.9 times. As a reminder, our business generates a healthy free cash flow as we invoice our customers daily for the work we perform, and we have minimal working capital requirements as we do not take ownership of the concrete that we placed. This ability to generate strong free cash flow, along with our strong margins that have been enhanced with the acquisition of the accretive Capital business, provide us additional comfort with the debt levels and our ability to delever and strengthen our balance sheet over time.

Now let's turn to our financial look -- outlook for our fiscal-year 2020. We expect construction activity in our end markets to largely remain robust. We have a high visibility in our commercial and infrastructure work, which accounts for nearly 70% of our revenue, and our current project outlook in the U.S. remains in a stronger position to date when compared to this time last year.

Given these dynamics, we expect full-year revenue in fiscal-year 2020 to range between $315 million and $330 million, and adjusted EBITDA to range between $110 million and $115 million. We expect a large portion of our free cash flow to be allocated to reducing our leverage ratio, and we are targeting approximately three and a half times leverage ratio at the end of fiscal-year 2020. With that, I will now turn the call back to Bruce to provide additional color around our outlook and reiterate our strategic priorities for fiscal-year 2020.

Bruce Young -- Chief Executive Officer

Thanks, Iain. Looking to fiscal 2020, our focus remains on balance sheet strength, profitable organic growth and the continued successful execution of our long-term plan. We have several large projects kicking off in the first half of 2020 with organic growth expected in most of our key regions. These projects range from major campus rebuilds, office buildings, parking garages, data centers, distribution centers, hotels, medical buildings and a variety of energy-related projects.

These large projects are spread across the country from Oregon and Washington to Texas and Atlanta. There are also a number of large infrastructure projects in the U.K. that are ongoing with additional projects kicking off in the near future. The accretive addition of the Capital Pumping business stimulated our presence in the important Texas marketplace, and we continue to look for options to drive both revenue and expense synergies across the combined businesses.

Regarding Eco-Pan, as Iain mentioned, we are continuing our efforts to grow the business, predominantly by leveraging our existing infrastructure, customers and branch locations. This will allow us to profitably grow the business while increasing awareness to our service offering. As mentioned previously, we updated our U.S. Eco-Pan leadership in June of this year, and the impact of Casey Mendenhall's involvement is showing positive signs with a strong year-over-year revenue and volume growth in the fourth quarter.

In the U.K., the political environment has stabilized in recent months, and foreign exchange headwinds have lessened. We remain cautious in our outlook for the U.K., expecting Concrete Pumping in the region to be somewhat flat in 2020. Despite potential headwinds, the -- and excluding the effect of currency fluctuations, we remain in a position to continue to drive our leading reputation through our market presence and value-added services, strong relationships with our customers in broad geographic footprint. Our team in the U.K.

continues to perform exceptionally in a challenging market and have done an outstanding job maintaining a strong and resilient position in the market, and we expect this to continue. Next, I would like to reiterate our near-term priorities, which we believe will drive optimal shareholder value. First is driving organic EBITDA growth and free cash flow generation. We will continue to capture the remaining synergies from the Capital acquisition and introduce Eco-Pan further across the Concrete Pumping footprint.

We will remain highly disciplined in cost management. Second is maintaining stable investment in our equipment in fiscal 2020. We have a younger fleet, which reduces repair and maintenance, and capital expenditures typically range around 12% of revenue. We actively manage the purchase and sale of our equipment to minimize lumpiness in our capital requirements in any given year.

And during a potential downturn, we were able to quickly ratchet down capex and EBIT turn it negative as we increase sales of our used equipment. Our third priority is maintaining a strong balance sheet and driving down leverage. We continue to be comfortable with our current amount of debt. And as Iain mentioned, we expect our leverage ratio to decline to approximately three and a half times by the end of 2020.

The main driver of the sequential decline in our leverage ratio is the significant free cash flow we typically generate in the back half of the year due to seasonality. Our long-term leverage target remains at two and a half times. Lastly, we will pursue opportunistic acquisitions only after Capital is fully integrated. Our M&A pipeline remains very healthy, and we expect near-term M&A would be tuck-ins rather than transformational like Capital.

To put this into perspective, Capital generated approximately $24 million of the trailing 12-month adjusted EBITDA as of March 31, while the companies in our pipeline have an average adjusted EBITDA of about $5 million to $10 million. But for the avoidance of doubt, issuing equity to secure accretive M&A transactions is not in our -- is not our immediate preference and Capital was a unique situation, given its size and strategic importance. Before turning the call over to the operator for Q&A, I'd like to say that I'm encouraged by our results in the fourth quarter, particularly given all the events that took place during the year to get us into this position. However, we have much to look forward to in fiscal 2020, and our team is confident that our current plan is the optimal way to drive long-term shareholder value.

With that, I'd like to turn the call back to the operator for Q&A. Omar?

Questions & Answers:


Operator

[Operator instructions] Our first question is from Justin Hauke, Robert W. Baird & Company. Please proceed with your question.

Justin Hauke -- Robert W. Baird and Company -- Analyst

Yes. Hi. Good afternoon. Thanks for taking the time here.

I guess I just wanted to start maybe with the guidance, and just to clarify maybe some of the moving pieces within it. It looks like organic revenue guidance is, call it, flat to up 5%. You said that U.K., you're expecting to be flattish. So is the way to think about it that U.S.

is up low single digits to mid-single-digit organic and then Eco-Pan kind of up high single digits? And is that kind of the right framework? And then, I guess, is the Eco-Pan outlook, is that kind of the structural growth rate you expected to grow? Is that high single-digit rate?

Iain Humphries -- Chief Financial Officer

Yeah, Justin. Hi. This is Iain. Yes, I mean, I think the way that you've framed out is a good way to think about from next year, and that's what we had mentioned in our Q3 earnings.

So what we've seen is pro forma year over year on the U.S. pumping side is a low to mid-single digits. And obviously, with Eco-Pan and being certainly outlining its life cycle, we are seeing a pickup in the organic volume. We've seen that in Q4, which helped with the full year.

So the way that you framed out there for next year is a fair representation for next year.

Justin Hauke -- Robert W. Baird and Company -- Analyst

OK, good. And then I guess the second question here, just on the U.S. segment. You saw the sequential growth uptick, it was flat organically.

Last quarter, it's up 4% or so this quarter. Despite having that weather headwind, I think you mentioned a couple of markets that saw a little bit of the improvements. But is there anything else that was kind of one-time in there? Or something that was holding back 3Q? I'm just trying to understand the delta there.

Iain Humphries -- Chief Financial Officer

Yeah. I mean, really, the weather event was the biggest thing in Q4. I mean, obviously, when it starts in the Pacific Northwest and its snow and ice and it makes as we've done through Colorado and into Texas, that was really the only thing that we've seen in the business in Q4. And organically, we see a raw split on volume and price equally.

And so that pro forma growth year over year of around 4% is quite consistent with our normal expectations.

Justin Hauke -- Robert W. Baird and Company -- Analyst

Got it. And I guess, maybe the last one I have here before I jump back and maybe I'll come back in. But just on the free cash flow outlook, is 45% EBITDA conversion still kind of the right way to think about it? And I guess I asked because unless your capex is different. It kind of looks like maybe there's -- that 3.5% leverage is a little bit, that you're going to have some room to have some free cash flow beyond just paying down debt to get there if you convert at that rate.

So anything on the cash flow guidance you can give color on?

Iain Humphries -- Chief Financial Officer

Yeah. That's fair. And so from a cash flow and free cash flow guidance would obviously be just take our 2019 results of $95.5 million of EBITDA off of that. And the run rate on capex is about 12% of revenue, as Bruce mentioned.

And then if you take interest from the -- I mean, obviously, if the interest rates hold as we see them today, we would expect to see maybe $37 million dollars, $38 million interest number. Really, the cash conversion from EBITDA will be around just shy of 30% with after our capex and interest.

Justin Hauke -- Robert W. Baird and Company -- Analyst

Got it. That's helpful. OK, I'll jump back in later. I'll let someone else have a question here.

Operator

Our next question is from Stanley Elliott, Stifel. Please proceed with your question.

Stanley Elliott -- Stifel Financial Corp. -- Analyst

Hey, guys. Thank you all for taking the question. Can you talk a little bit more about some of the pricing initiatives you guys have out there? Are you doing anything differently? You got 2% here, it was great. And then maybe kind of what are your expectations for pricing in the coming year?

Bruce Young -- Chief Executive Officer

Yeah. So hi, Stanley, this is Bruce. So I want to qualify the pricing. Now when we acquired the Capital business, they have a higher percentage of residential work and a higher number of smaller units.

So our average size of order of equipment during the second half of the year was smaller than it was in the first half of the year. But even with that, we ended up with a 2% increase in rate, even though many of the orders were for smaller units. So as we look at the initiatives we have with pricing, both for Eco-Pan and Brundage-Bone, we certainly have some inflation that we have to deal with. We have letters out to our customers, most price rates in the U.S.

go into effect in January. They go a little later in the year in the U.K., but our expectations in years past are very consistent with what we're going to see in 2020.

Stanley Elliott -- Stifel Financial Corp. -- Analyst

And the comments that you all had visibility in the business into next year, fair to assume that it's kind of booked or thought to be booked at kind of some of these higher-priced work?

Bruce Young -- Chief Executive Officer

It's fair to say that. Now we do have a higher percentage of residential by bringing Capital on, but that's going to be more than offset with our -- the specialty-type work we do with our, high-rise placing boom equipment, static line pumps and higher utilization on our larger units.

Stanley Elliott -- Stifel Financial Corp. -- Analyst

Perfect. And then can you guys talk a little bit more about what's happened in the Eco-Pan business, they're nice build really throughout the year. Are you going to new markets? Or is this new customers? Just more pans on rent, anything to kind of help us with what's driving the improvement that you're seeing there.

Bruce Young -- Chief Executive Officer

Yeah. So we had a change in the general manager in June with Eco-Pan. And when he came on board, we did a much better job of leveraging the Brundage-Bone relationships and Brundage-Bone resources to help really supercharge the growth of Eco-Pan. And the team chemistry that's been developed with the two leaders of both Brundage-Bone and Eco-Pan to drive that growth has been phenomenal in the results, as you can see in the fourth quarter have been impressive, and we see that going into 2020.

Stanley Elliott -- Stifel Financial Corp. -- Analyst

Perfect, guys. That's all I had. Thank you very much.

Bruce Young -- Chief Executive Officer

Thanks, Stanley.

Operator

Our next question is from Alex Rygiel, B. Riley FBR. Please proceed with your question.

Alex Rygiel -- B. Riley FBR, Inc. -- Analyst

Thank you. Good evening, gentlemen. Just a quick clarification. With regards to your 2020 revenue guidance, are you still feeling like maybe half of that is price, and half of that is volume?

Iain Humphries -- Chief Financial Officer

Yeah. On the U.S. pumping side, that's typically what we expect is half price and half volume. And we've also seen that prove out in '19 as well.

So yeah, that's the expectation for next year.

Alex Rygiel -- B. Riley FBR, Inc. -- Analyst

And then can you update us on the U.K. rail opportunity?

Bruce Young -- Chief Executive Officer

Yeah. So maybe addressing the U.K. in general. So as you know, the political environment in the U.K.

is a little more stable now than what we've seen in the past. However, there is -- it will take some time to get trade agreements and other things completed before confidence goes into the construction industry. So it might be some time later in the year or into next year before we see improvement in that market. There's still some uncertainty on the HS2 railway, although the optimism is at the end of this year that that project will be ramping up.

They've been working on that. There's significant dollar spend on that to this point. But I think that's -- that will be told over the next few months as the political environment kind of stabilizes.

Alex Rygiel -- B. Riley FBR, Inc. -- Analyst

Thank you.

Operator

[Operator Instructions] Our next question is from Tim Mulrooney, William Blair. Please proceed with your question.

Tim Mulrooney -- William Blair -- Analyst

Good afternoon. So on your EBITDA guidance, that suggests margin expansion of over 100 basis points for the full year. Does this primarily reflect the impact from having a full year of Capital in the numbers? Or are there other factors to consider as well?

Iain Humphries -- Chief Financial Officer

Yeah. I mean, obviously, a key component of that is the full-year impact of Capital in next year, which, as you know, had a higher margin than the legacy business. And we'll continue to work on. We get the scale that that comes and allows us to obviously strengthen our supply chain as well.

So a good expectation that the margin expansion is we would match our expectation about how we see the full-year rollout and the benefit of scale into next year.

Tim Mulrooney -- William Blair -- Analyst

OK. And yeah, excuse me, but I'm on the road. So it was a little hard to hear some of your comments, Iain. But last quarter, you indicated that your backlog was up year over year.

Is that still true today? And has the growth in that backlog accelerated or decelerated at all since you last reported earnings?

Bruce Young -- Chief Executive Officer

Hi, Tim, this is Bruce. Yeah, so as we've talked in the past, it's difficult to predict where the residential markets were going that roughly 70-plus percent of our business is commercial and infrastructure and our backlog in commercial and infrastructure is greater than it was in prior years and utilization of our special equipment is at the highest level we've seen.

Tim Mulrooney -- William Blair -- Analyst

OK. OK. The last question for me, guys, if we could pivot to the cash flow statement for a second. Yes, and look, I know you said because you don't take ownership of the Concrete, you don't have significant working capital requirements.

But in looking at the cash flow statement, it looks like working capital was a $9 million use of cash in 2019, with most of that coming from receivables and payables. With that in mind, how should we think about working capital for 2020 as we work through our models here?

Iain Humphries -- Chief Financial Officer

Yeah. So I mean, it is a working capital of the business. I mean a lot of what you've seen on the change there is, obviously, we've expanded the top line with the addition of capital. And the other thing from a capital perspective, our working capital perspective is and we accrued for the equipment that we have delivered just before the year-end.

So there's no cash impact. But those are the sort of main movements on working capital and for delivery equipment and the expansion of the top line of the business.

Tim Mulrooney -- William Blair -- Analyst

Gotcha. Thanks for your time.

Iain Humphries -- Chief Financial Officer

Thanks, Tim.
