Conference Call to Discuss Results at 9:00 am EDT Today

HOUSTON, TX / ACCESSWIRE / August 5, 2021 / ENGlobal Corporation (NASDAQ:ENG), a leading provider of innovative, project delivery solutions for the energy industry, today reported the achievement of key objectives in its strategic transformation.

Mark A. Hess, CEO stated: "While segments of the broader energy industry have begun recovering from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, ENGlobal's business - which traditionally lags behind that of the broader energy market by as much as nine months - had not improved by the end of the second quarter. We are, however, taking steps to better position the company to take advantage of the expected increase in business activity in our markets. We have been transitioning ENGlobal from an engineering consulting firm to a vertically integrated project delivery company for some time and, because of the recent changes in senior management, we have accelerated that transformation. Some of the key objectives we achieved this year include:

  • Enhancing our management and business development teams with six key hires,
  • Redefining our market focus and strategic growth plans,
  • Rebranding the company with a new, more progressive logo,
  • Enhancing the company's marketing program to include, among other things, social media, and
  • Redesigning our website to better describe the company's safety record, product offerings, market focus and accomplishments.

Therefore, as an extension of our rebranding efforts, we now refer to the company as ENG."

Mr. Hess continued, "We are also taking steps to further improve our financial strength. Thus far this year we have:

  • Filed a shelf registration statement with the SEC to assist with the company's capital raising activities,
  • Raised approximately $19 million through a registered direct offering under the registration statement, and
  • Implemented a facility, also under the registration statement, known as an ATM, where we may sell, from time to time, up to $25 million of common stock into the market at the then market price.

"As a result of these activities, the company's cash-on-hand was approximately $29 million at the end of Q2 2021. Also, ENG's PPP loan of approximately $4.9 million was completely forgiven in July, which leaves the company with very little debt and a very healthy balance sheet. This is important to our current and prospective clients as it provides them with greater comfort and puts us in an excellent position to execute on the many opportunities in our pipeline that may be awarded, including those in the expanding renewables and green energy sectors," added Mr. Hess.

"These opportunities, plus the continued energy industry recovery from the COVID pandemic, will, we believe, produce improved results for our company for the remainder of this year and beyond," Mr. Hess concluded.

ENG also announced that, for the second quarter ended June 26, 2021, it had a net loss of $4,256,000, or $(.14) per share, on revenue of $11,079,000, compared with net income of $68,000, or $.00 per share, on revenue of $17,882,000 for the second quarter ended June 27, 2020.

For the six months ended June 26, 2021, the company had a net loss of $4,210,000, or $(.15) per share, on revenue of $23,528,000, compared with net income of $1,169,000, or $.04 per share, on revenue of $37,142,000 for the six months ended June 27, 2020.

The decrease in the company's second quarter revenue compared with the same period last year was primarily due to the continuing COVID-related delays in securing government services and other projects intended to replace those projects completed by the company since Q2 2020. The decline in bottom line performance in Q2 2021, compared with the same period last year, was primarily a result of this decrease in revenue, an investment in essential personnel which, among other things, decreased gross margin to 1% from 14%, an investment of $0.5 million in business development personnel and other costs intended to enhance marketing and sales efforts, and a bad debt reserve of $1.4 million stemming from a commercial customer that suspended operations during the quarter and, subsequently, filed for bankruptcy.

The decrease in six-month revenue compared with the same period last year was primarily due to the continuing COVID-related delays in securing government services and other projects intended to replace those projects completed by the company since Q2 2020. The decline in bottom line performance for the first six months of 2021 compared with the same period in 2020 resulted primarily from this decrease in revenue, an investment in essential personnel which, among other things, decreased gross margin to 5% from 15%, an investment of $0.9 million in business development personnel and other costs intended to enhance marketing and sales efforts, and the bad debt reserve of $1.4 million. These effects were partially offset by an employee retention credit of $1.7 million recorded in the first quarter.

The following is a summary of the income statements for the three- and six-months periods ended June 26, 2021 and June 27, 2020:
