Williams Reports Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Backlog Continues to Expand; Revising Guidance to Reflect Margin Pressure and Order Timing

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 third quarter ended September 30, 2021.

Recent Highlights

  • Williams posted revenue of $73.4 million in the third quarter of 2021 compared with $66.2 million in the prior-year period
  • The Company reported net income of $0.7 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, in the third quarter versus net income of $1.0 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2020
  • Adjusted EBITDA1 was $3.8 million for the third quarter of 2021 compared with $4.1 million in the prior-year period
  • As of September 30, 2021, the Company’s backlog was $672.5 million compared to $664.4 million as of June 30, 2021, with approximately $207.4 million expected to be converted to revenue over the following twelve months and $73.4 million expected to be converted by the end of the fiscal year
  • The Company announced November 8, 2021 that it restructured the organization and made substantial changes to management to improve business development initiatives, strengthen operational execution, and drive long-term growth

“Although revenue rose 11% year-over-year and our backlog climbed to $672.5 million, gross margins fell, as did adjusted EBITDA, primarily due to cost overruns on certain fixed price contracts,” said Tracy Pagliara, President and CEO of Williams. “In addition, due to the delay – and uncertainty – associated with an anticipated, significant customer order, our backlog has not grown at the pace previously envisioned, such that fourth quarter results will also be adversely impacted. Accordingly, we have revised our guidance for 2021.

“It goes without saying that we are working aggressively to address these issues. First and foremost, as recently announced, we have upgraded and reorganized our leadership team, which we believe will improve Williams’ business development and overall performance going forward. Our new structure necessitates greater focus on customer initiatives and operational execution, which should accelerate the Company’s growth trajectory while delivering better, more predictable, financial results. With this in mind, along with strong prospects in our end markets – now supplemented by the infrastructure bill approved by Congress – I remain positive about the future heading into 2022.”

Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results Compared to Third Quarter 2020

Revenue in the third quarter of 2021 was $73.4 million compared with $66.2 million in the third quarter of 2020, largely reflecting $8.6 million of higher decommissioning work.

Gross profit was $6.8 million, or 9.2% of revenue, compared with $8.7 million, or 13.1% of revenue, in the prior-year period, with the lower margin reflecting cost overruns and changes in project mix. Gross margin in the third quarter of 2021 did not benefit from a previously-announced incentive related to a multi-year customer contract, the receipt of which is now uncertain.

Operating expenses were $4.6 million compared with $6.0 million in the third quarter of 2020, reflecting reduced compensation and benefit costs. The Company reported operating income of $2.2 million versus $2.7 million in the prior-year period. Interest expense was $1.2 million in the third quarter of 2021 versus $1.5 million in 2020, as a result of the Company’s refinancing which was completed in the fourth quarter of 2020.

The Company reported net income of $0.7 million, or $0.03 per share, in the third quarter of 2021 compared with net income of $1.0 million, or $0.04 per share, in the prior-year period.

Balance Sheet

Total liquidity (the sum of unrestricted cash and availability under the Revolving Credit Facility) was $21.7 million at the end of the third quarter. The Company anticipates using its cash generation, supported by significant net operating losses (NOLs), to lower indebtedness during the remainder of fiscal 2021. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had $2.6 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, $0.5 million of restricted cash, and $36.2 million of bank debt compared with $8.7 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, $0.5 million of restricted cash, and $32.1 million of bank debt as of December 31, 2020.

Backlog

Total backlog as of September 30, 2021 was $672.5 million compared with $664.4 million on June 30, 2021. The Company recognized revenue of $73.4 million in the third quarter, booked new awards of $76.8 million, and saw net adjustments and cancellations of $4.7 million, primarily reflecting work scope expansion.

Williams estimates that approximately $207.4 million, or 30.8% of total backlog on September 30, 2021, will be converted to revenue within the next twelve months and $73.4 million, or 10.9% of total backlog, will be converted to revenue within the remainder of the fiscal year. This compares with $199.5 million of backlog on June 30, 2021 that the Company anticipated would be converted to revenue over the succeeding twelve-month period.

Outlook

The Company has adjusted its previous guidance (issued February 8, 2021) for the current fiscal year to reflect recent project cost overruns, delays in contract decision-making, and investment in business development, among other factors.

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. 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 unusual gains or charges (stock-based compensation, severance costs, other professional fees, franchise taxes, foreign currency (gain) loss, settlement expenses and ROU asset impairment), 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 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.
