Williams Reports Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Performance Reflects Delayed Awards, Non-recurring Margin Pressure

ATLANTA--()--Williams Industrial Services Group Inc. (NYSE American: WLMS) (“Williams” or the “Company”), an energy and industrial infrastructure services company, today reported its financial results for the fiscal second quarter ended June 30, 2022.

Recent Highlights

  • Williams posted revenue of $56.1 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared with $91.6 million in the prior-year period
  • The Company reported a net loss from continuing operations of $5.3 million, or $(0.20) per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2022 compared with net income from continuing operations of $2.6 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2021
  • Adjusted EBITDA1 was negative $3.2 million for the second quarter of 2022 compared with $4.9 million in the prior-year period
  • As of June 30, 2022 the Company’s backlog was $234.3 million compared to $257.0 million as of March 31, 2022; approximately $144.6 million of the June 30, 2022 backlog is expected to be converted to revenue over the following twelve months
  • As previously announced, the Company has updated its guidance to reflect delayed awards and certain non-recurring costs

“Although Williams’ future remains promising, we were disappointed in how the second quarter played out, causing us to reduce guidance on August 4, 2022,” said Tracy Pagliara, President and CEO of Williams. “Our second quarter revenues were lower than expected as nuclear work was pushed out to the second half of 2022. In addition, several non-recurring items, including start-up costs in our transmission and distribution business, margin pressure from certain Florida water projects, and litigation expenses relating to a competitor and former employee, also negatively impacted bottom line results.

“Looking ahead, with bid activity accelerating, we’re optimistic about revenue and backlog growth and better operating performance in the quarters to come. We remain focused on new business development, expense controls and working capital management. We’re confident in our ability to position Williams for expansion and increased shareholder returns going forward.”

Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results Compared to Second Quarter 2021

Revenue in the second quarter was $56.1 million compared with $91.6 million in the second quarter of 2021, largely reflecting reduced nuclear business – due to the timing of a nuclear outage which occurs every other year accounting for $17.6 million of the decline – fewer decommissioning contracts accounting for $11.5 million of decline, and the exit of the Canadian nuclear market accounting for a $9.9 million reduction in revenue. Gross profit was $2.3 million, or 4.1% of revenue, compared with $9.4 million, or 10.2% of revenue, in the prior-year period, with the lower margin primarily due to changes in project mix, including the ongoing impact of certain contracts in Florida, as previously announced, and start-up costs tied to the Company’s further expansion into the energy delivery market. Excluding the aforementioned gross margin compression associated with Williams’ entry into the transmission and distribution business of $1.6 million and the negative gross margin impact of $1.2 million from the Company’s Florida water projects, adjusted gross margin would have been 10.0% of revenue.

Operating expenses were $6.7 million in the 2022 second quarter, inclusive of $0.3 million in professional fees relating to an ongoing legal matter, compared with $6.6 million in the prior-year period. The Company reported an operating loss of $4.5 million for the second quarter of 2022 versus operating profit of $2.7 million in the same period of 2021. Interest expense was $1.3 million in the second quarter of 2022 versus $1.2 million in 2021.

The Company reported a net loss from continuing operations of $5.3 million, or $(0.20) per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2022 compared with net income from continuing operations of $2.6 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2021.

Balance Sheet

The Company’s total liquidity (the sum of unrestricted cash and availability under the Company’s revolving credit facility) was $6.5 million as of June 30, 2022 versus $27.7 million at the beginning of 2022. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $0.7 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, $0.5 million of restricted cash, and $41.4 million of bank debt compared with $2.5 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, $0.5 million of restricted cash, and $32.1 million of bank debt as of December 31, 2021.

Backlog

Total backlog as of June 30, 2022 was $234.3 million compared with $257.0 million on March 31, 2022. During the second quarter of 2022 the Company recognized revenue of $56.1 million, booked new awards of $17.2 million, and saw net adjustments and cancellations of $16.2 million.

GROSS MARGIN RECONCILIATION

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURE (UNAUDITED)

The following table reconciles our adjusted gross margin to our actual gross margin by deducting the energy transmission and distribution projects that are incurring start-up costs and lump sum projects in the water markets that are generating a loss. We believe this information is meaningful as it isolates the impact that our start-up costs and the non-profitable lump sum projects have on our gross margin. Because adjusted gross margin is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

NOTE 1 — Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA-Continuing Operations

Adjusted EBITDA is not calculated through the application of GAAP and is not the required form of disclosure by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Adjusted EBITDA is the sum of the Company’s income (loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, net, and income tax (benefit) expense and unusual gains or charges. It also excludes non-cash charges such as depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation. The Company’s management believes adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of operating performance because it allows management, investors and others to evaluate and compare the performance of its core operations from period to period by removing the impact of the capital structure (interest), tangible and intangible asset base (depreciation and amortization), taxes and certain non-cash expenses and unusual gains or charges (such as stock-based compensation, severance costs, other professional fees, and foreign currency (gain) loss) which are not always commensurate with the reporting period in which such items are included. Williams’ credit facilities also contain ratios based on EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to net income or income from continuing operations or as a better measure of liquidity than net cash flows from operating activities, as determined by GAAP, and, therefore, should not be used in isolation from, but in conjunction with, the GAAP measures. The use of any non-GAAP measure may produce results that vary from the GAAP measure and may not be comparable to a similarly defined non-GAAP measure used by other companies.

Note Regarding Forward-Looking Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their comparable GAAP financial measures because it could not do so without unreasonable effort due to the unavailability of the information needed to calculate reconciling items and due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of the adjusting items that would be excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures in future periods. When planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods, the Company does so primarily on a non-GAAP basis without preparing a GAAP analysis.
