GULF ISLAND FABRICATION, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2021
(Unaudited)
1. |
ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Nature of Operations
Gulf Island Fabrication, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, “Gulf Island,” “the Company,” “we,” “us” and “our”) is a leading fabricator of complex steel structures and modules and provider of project management, hookup, commissioning, repair, maintenance and civil construction services. Our customers include U.S. and, to a lesser extent, international energy producers; refining, petrochemical, LNG, industrial and power operators; and EPC companies. We currently operate and manage our business through
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (“Financial Statements”) reflect all wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, the Financial Statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021. Our Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2020, has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the Financial Statements and related footnotes included in our 2020 Annual Report.
We determined the Shipyard Division assets, liabilities and operations associated with the Shipyard Transaction, and associated with certain previously closed Shipyard Division facilities, to be discontinued operations in the second quarter 2021. Accordingly, such assets and liabilities at June 30, 2021, and operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, have been classified as discontinued operations on our Consolidated Balance Sheet (“Balance Sheet”) and Consolidated Statement of Operations (“Statement of Operations”), respectively. Our classification of these operations as discontinued requires retrospective application to financial information for all prior periods presented. Therefore, such assets and liabilities at December 31, 2020, and operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, have been recast and classified as discontinued operations on our Balance Sheet and Statement of Operations, respectively. Discontinued operations are not presented separately on our Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows (“Statement of Cash Flows”). Unless otherwise noted, the amounts presented throughout the notes to our Financial Statements relate to our continuing operations. See Note 3 for further discussion of the Shipyard Transaction and our discontinued operations.
Operating Cycle
The duration of our contracts vary but typically extend beyond twelve months from the date of contract award. Consistent with industry practice, assets and liabilities have been classified as current under the operating cycle concept whereby all contract-related items are classified as current regardless of whether cash will be received or paid within a twelve-month period. Assets and liabilities classified as current, which may not be received or paid within the next twelve months, include contract retainage, contract assets and contract liabilities. Variations from normal contract terms may result in the classification of assets and liabilities as long-term.

Use of Estimates
General – The preparation of our Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. We believe our most significant estimates and judgments are associated with:
|
• |
revenue recognition for our contracts, including application of the percentage-of-completion method, estimating costs to complete each contract and the recognition of incentives, unapproved change orders, claims and liquidated damages; |
|
• |
fair value and recoverability assessments that must be periodically performed with respect to long-lived assets and our assets held for sale; |
|
• |
determination of deferred income tax assets, liabilities and related valuation allowances; |
|
• |
reserves for bad debts; |
|
• |
liabilities related to self-insurance programs; and |
|
• |
the impacts of the ongoing global coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19”) and volatile oil prices on our business, estimates and judgments as discussed further below. |
If the underlying estimates and assumptions upon which our Financial Statements are based change in the future, actual amounts may differ materially from those included in the Financial Statements.
Volatile Oil Prices and COVID-19 – For the last several years, the price of oil has been at depressed levels and/or experienced significant volatility, resulting in a significant and sustained reduction in capital spending and drilling activities from our traditional offshore oil and gas customer base. Consequently, our operating results and cash flows have been negatively impacted as we experienced reductions in revenue, lower margins due to competitive pricing, significant under-utilization of our operating facilities and resources and losses on certain projects. Additionally, COVID-19 has added another layer of pressure and uncertainty on oil prices and our end markets, which has further impacted our operations. COVID-19 (including its new and emerging strains and variants) is a widespread public health crisis that continues to adversely affect global economies and financial markets.
During 2020, our operations (as well as the operations of our customers, subcontractors and other counterparties) were negatively impacted by the physical distancing, quarantine and isolation measures recommended by national, state and local authorities on large portions of the population, and mandatory business closures that were enacted in an attempt to control COVID-19. We continue to monitor the impact of COVID-19 on our operations and recognize that it could continue to negatively impact our business and results of operations during the remainder of 2021 and beyond. Even with widespread distribution of vaccines, hesitancy or resistance to the vaccines among certain groups, as well as uncertainty about their long-term efficacy or effectiveness against new COVID-19 strains and variants, remain. The extent to which our operations and financial performance will be impacted by COVID-19 during the remainder of 2021 will depend largely on future developments, including global availability and acceptance of the vaccines. Authorities in some areas of the U.S. have begun to relax COVID-19 restrictions; however, if the areas where we have our headquarters and operating facilities, or areas where our customers, subcontractors and other counterparties have operations, were to experience periods of resurgence in the numbers of cases of the virus, including through the spread of new, more contagious or deadly strains and variants of the virus, authorities may reinstate restrictions, quarantine and isolation measures. The measures taken, while intended to protect human life, have had and are expected to continue to have a serious adverse impact on domestic and foreign economies of uncertain severity and duration.
The continued level of uncertainty means the ultimate business and financial impacts of COVID-19 and volatility in oil prices cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, but have included, or may include, among other things, reduced bidding activity, suspension or termination of backlog, deterioration of customer financial condition, potential supply disruptions and unanticipated project costs due to project disruptions and schedule delays, lower labor productivity, increased employee and contractor absenteeism and turnover, craft labor hiring challenges, lack of performance by subcontractors and suppliers, and contract disputes. Management’s estimates in future periods will be revised for any events and changes in circumstances arising after the date of this Report for the impacts of COVID-19 and volatile oil prices.
Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted income (loss) per share reflects the assumed conversion of dilutive securities. See Note 7 for calculations of our basic and diluted income (loss) per share.

Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash and Short-Term Investments
Cash Equivalents – We consider investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Restricted Cash – At June 30, 2021, we had $
Short-Term Investments – We consider investments with original maturities of more than three months but less than twelve months to be short-term investments. We had
Inventory
Inventory is recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value determined using the first-in-first-out basis. The cost of inventory includes acquisition costs, production or conversion costs, and other costs incurred to bring the inventory to a current location and condition. Net realizable value is our estimated selling price in the normal course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. An allowance for excess or inactive inventory is recorded based on an analysis that considers current inventory levels, historical usage patterns, estimates of future sales and salvage value.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
In the normal course of business, we extend credit to our customers on a short-term basis and contract receivables are generally not collateralized; however, we typically have the right to place liens on our projects in the event of nonpayment by our customers. We routinely review individual contract receivable balances for collectability and make provisions for probable uncollectible amounts as necessary. Among the factors considered in our review are the financial condition of our customer and its access to financing, underlying disputes with the customer, the age and value of the receivable balance, and economic conditions in general. See Note 2 for further discussion of our allowance for doubtful accounts.
Stock-Based Compensation
Awards under our stock-based compensation plans are calculated using a fair value-based measurement method. We use the straight-line method to recognize share-based compensation expense over the requisite service period of the award. We recognize the excess tax benefit or tax deficiency resulting from the difference between the deduction we receive for tax purposes and the stock-based compensation expense we recognize for financial reporting purposes created when common stock vests, as an income tax benefit or expense on our Statement of Operations.
Tax payments made on behalf of employees to taxing authorities in order to satisfy employee income tax withholding obligations from the vesting of shares under our stock-based compensation plans are classified as a financing activity on our Statement of Cash Flows.
Assets Held for Sale
Assets held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. See Note 4 for further discussion of our assets held for sale.
Depreciation Expense
Property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives ranging from
- 7 -
Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets, which include property, plant and equipment and our lease assets included within other noncurrent assets, are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If a recoverability assessment is required, we compare the estimated future undiscounted cash flow associated with the asset or asset group to its carrying amount to determine if an impairment exists. An asset group constitutes the minimum level for which identifiable cash flows are principally independent of the cash flows of other assets or asset groups. An impairment loss is measured by comparing the fair value of the asset or asset group to its carrying amount and the excess of the carrying amount of the asset or asset group over its fair value is recorded as an impairment charge. Fair value is determined based on discounted cash flows, appraised values or third-party indications of value, as appropriate. See Note 3 for further discussion of our long-lived asset impairments within our discontinued operations.
Leases
We record a right-of-use asset and an offsetting lease liability on our Balance Sheet equal to the present value of our lease payments for leases with an original term of longer than twelve months. We do not record an asset or liability for leases with an original term of twelve months or less and we do not separate lease and non-lease components for our leases. Our lease assets are reflected within other noncurrent assets, and the current and noncurrent portions of our lease liabilities are reflected within accrued expenses and other liabilities, and other noncurrent liabilities, respectively, on our Balance Sheet. For leases with escalations over the life of the lease, we recognize expense on a straight-line basis.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value determinations for financial assets and liabilities are based on the particular facts and circumstances. Financial instruments are required to be categorized within a valuation hierarchy based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels of the valuation hierarchy are as follows:
|
• |
Level 1 – inputs are based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets. |
|
• |
Level 2 – inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market. |
|
• |
Level 3 – inputs are based upon model-based valuation techniques for which significant assumptions are generally not observable in the market and typically reflect estimates and assumptions that we believe market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. These include discounted cash flow models and similar valuation techniques. |
The carrying amounts of our financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair values. Our fair value assessments for determining impairments of inventory, long-lived assets and assets held for sale are non-recurring fair value measurements that fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. See Note 4 for further discussion of our assets held for sale.
Revenue Recognition
General – Our revenue is derived from customer contracts and agreements that are awarded on a competitively bid and negotiated basis using a range of contracting options, including fixed-price, unit-rate and T&M. Our contracts primarily relate to the fabrication and construction of steel structures, modules and marine vessels, and project management services and other service arrangements. We recognize revenue from our contracts in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Topic 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“Topic 606”).
Topic 606 requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Additionally, provisions of Topic 606 specify which goods and services are distinct and represent separate performance obligations (representing the unit of account in Topic 606) within a contract and which goods and services (which could include multiple contracts or agreements) should be aggregated. In general, a performance obligation is a contractual obligation to construct and/or transfer a distinct good or service to a customer. The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. Revenue for performance obligations satisfied over time are recognized as the work progresses. Revenue for performance obligations that do not meet the criteria for over time recognition are recognized at a point-in-time when a performance obligation is complete and a customer has obtained control of a promised asset.
Fixed-Price and Unit-Rate Contracts – Revenue for our fixed-price and unit-rate contracts is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method based on contract costs incurred to date compared to total estimated contract costs (an input method). Contract costs include direct costs, such as materials and labor, and indirect costs attributable to contract activity. Material costs that are significant to
- 8 -
a contract and do not reflect an accurate measure of project completion are excluded from the determination of our contract progress. Revenue for such materials is only recognized to the extent of costs incurred. Revenue and gross profit for contracts accounted for using the percentage-of-completion method can be significantly affected by changes in estimated cost to complete such contracts. Significant estimates impacting the cost to complete a contract include: forecast costs of engineering, materials, equipment and subcontracts; forecast costs of labor and labor productivity; schedule durations, including subcontractor and supplier progress; contract disputes, including claims; achievement of contractual performance requirements; and contingency, among others. Although our customers retain the right and ability to change, modify or discontinue further work at any stage of a contract, in the event our customers discontinue work, they are required to compensate us for the work performed to date. The cumulative impact of revisions in total cost estimates during the progress of work is reflected in the period in which these changes become known, including, to the extent required, the reversal of profit recognized in prior periods and the recognition of losses expected to be incurred on contracts. Due to the various estimates inherent in our contract accounting, actual results could differ from those estimates, which could result in material changes to our Financial Statements and related disclosures. See Note 2 for further discussion of projects with significant changes in estimated margins during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.
T&M Contracts – Revenue for our T&M contracts is recognized at contracted rates when the work is performed, the costs are incurred and collection is reasonably assured. Our T&M contracts provide for labor and materials to be billed at rates specified within the contract. The consideration from the customer directly corresponds to the value of our performance completed at the time of invoicing.
Variable Consideration – Revenue and gross profit for contracts can be significantly affected by variable consideration, which can be in the form of unapproved change orders, claims, incentives and liquidated damages that may not be resolved until the later stages of the contract or after the contract has been completed. We estimate variable consideration based on the amount we expect to be entitled and include estimated amounts in transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur or when we conclude that any significant uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. See Note 2 for further discussion of unapproved change orders, claims, incentives and liquidated damages for our projects.
Additional Disclosures – Topic 606 also requires disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows from contracts with customers. See Note 2 for required disclosures under Topic 606.
Pre-Contract Costs
Pre-contract costs are generally charged to cost of revenue as incurred, but in certain cases their recognition may be deferred if specific probability criteria are met. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had
Other (Income) Expense, Net
Other (income) expense, net, generally represents recoveries or provisions for bad debts, gains or losses associated with the sale or disposition of property and equipment other than assets held for sale, and income or expense associated with certain nonrecurring items. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, other (income) expense also included a gain of $
Income Taxes
Income taxes have been provided using the liability method. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes using enacted rates expected to be in effect during the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Due to state income tax laws related to the apportionment of revenue for our projects, judgment is required to estimate the effective tax rate expected to apply to tax differences that are expected to reverse in the future.
A valuation allowance is provided to reserve for deferred tax assets (“DTA(s)”) if, based upon the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the DTAs will not be realized. The realization of our DTAs depends on our ability to generate sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character and in the appropriate jurisdictions. Our effective tax rate differs from our statutory rate as
Reserves for uncertain tax positions are recognized when we consider it more likely than not that additional tax will be due in excess of amounts reflected in our income tax returns, irrespective of whether or not we have received tax assessments. Interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions are recorded within income tax expense.
- 9 -
New Accounting Standards
Income taxes – During the first quarter 2021, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2019-12, “Income Taxes,” which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles and simplifies areas such as franchise taxes, step-up in tax basis goodwill, separate entity financial statements and interim recognition of enacted tax laws or rate changes. Adoption of the new standard did not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or related disclosures.
Financial instruments – In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which changes the way companies evaluate credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments. For trade and other receivables, short-term investments, loans and other instruments, entities will be required to use a new forward-looking “expected loss” model to evaluate impairment, potentially resulting in earlier recognition of allowances for losses. The new standard also requires enhanced disclosures, including the requirement to disclose the information used to track credit quality by year of origination for most financing receivables. ASU 2016-13 will be effective for us in the first quarter 2023. Early adoption of the new standard is permitted; however, we have not elected to early adopt the standard. The new standard is required to be applied using a cumulative-effect transition method. We are currently evaluating the effect that the new standard will have on our financial position, results of operations and related disclosures.

Contracts Assets and Liabilities
Revenue recognition and customer invoicing for our fixed-price and unit-rate contracts may occur at different times. Revenue recognition is based upon our estimated percentage-of-completion as discussed in Note 1; however, customer invoicing is generally dependent upon contractual billing terms, which could provide for customer payments in advance of performing the work, milestone billings based on the completion of certain phases of the work, or when services are provided. Revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed is reflected as contract assets on our Balance Sheet. Amounts billed in excess of revenue recognized, and accrued contract losses, are reflected as contract liabilities on our Balance Sheet.

Variable Consideration
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we had no material amounts in revenue related to unapproved change orders, claims or incentives. However, at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, certain projects reflected a reduction to our estimated contract price for liquidated damages of $
Changes in Project Estimates
We determine the impact of changes in estimated margins on projects for a given period by calculating the amount of revenue recognized in the period that would have been recognized in a prior period had such estimated margins been forecasted in the prior period. The total impact of changes in estimated margins for a project as disclosed on a quarterly basis may be different from the applicable year-to-date impact due to the application of the percentage-of-completion method and the changing progress of the project at each period end. Such impacts may also be different when a project is commenced and completed within the applicable year-to-date period but spans multiple quarters.

SHIPYARD TRANSACTION AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS |
Shipyard Transaction
Transaction Summary – On April 19, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), we entered into a definitive agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which we sold the operating assets and certain construction contracts of our Shipyard Division (“Shipyard Transaction”) to Bollinger Houma Shipyards, L.L.C. and Bollinger Shipyards Lockport, L.L.C. (collectively, “Bollinger”) for approximately $
We also received $
Included in the Shipyard Transaction were the Shipyard Division’s:
|
• |
Shipyard Facility and inventory and equipment in Houma, Louisiana; |
|
• |
Contracts and related obligations for our |
|
• |
Contract retentions, contract assets, contract liabilities and certain accounts payable associated with the Divested Shipyard Contracts as of the Closing Date; and |
|
• |
|
Bollinger offered employment to most of the employees of our Shipyard Division associated with the Acquired Shipyard Contracts.
Excluded from the Shipyard Transaction were the Shipyard Division’s:
|
• |
Accounts receivable, certain accounts payable and other accrued liabilities associated with the Divested Shipyard Contracts as of the Closing Date; |
|
• |
Contracts and related obligations for our (i) |
|
• |
Lake Charles Facility and Jennings Facility (which were closed in the fourth quarter 2020) and related lease obligations; and |
|
• |
Remaining assets and liabilities of the Shipyard Division. |
We retained those employees of our Shipyard Division associated with the Retained Shipyard Contracts.
In connection with the Shipyard Transaction, we recorded a total pre-tax loss of $
At June 30, 2021, the net liabilities on our Balance Sheet associated with the Retained Shipyard Contracts and other retained Shipyard Division operations totaled $
- 13 -
Impairment – During the first quarter 2021, events and changes in circumstances indicated that the carrying amount of our Shipyard Division’s long-lived assets may not be recoverable. These changes in circumstances were primarily attributable to a reassessment of our asset groups within our Shipyard Division as well as revisions to our probability assessment of net future cash flows of the applicable asset group based on the likelihood, that existed as of March 31, 2021, of the Shipyard Transaction occurring. Based on these assessments, we determined that an impairment of our Shipyard Division’s property, plant and equipment had occurred during the first quarter 2021. We measured the impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the applicable asset group at March 31, 2021 to an estimate of its fair value (which represents a Level 3 fair value measurement), resulting in an impairment charge of $
Discontinued Operations
The Shipyard Transaction (which included, among other things, our owned Shipyard Facility, Divested Shipyard Contracts and drydocks), and the previously disclosed fourth quarter 2020 closures of our leased Lake Charles Facility and Jennings Facility, represented the disposal and closure of a substantial portion of our Shipyard Division operations and the culmination of a strategic shift that will have a major effect on our ongoing operations and financial results. Therefore, we determined the assets, liabilities and operations associated with the Shipyard Transaction, and associated with the previously closed facilities, to be discontinued operations in the second quarter 2021. Accordingly, such assets and liabilities at June 30, 2021, and operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, have been classified as discontinued operations on our Balance Sheet and Statement of Operations, respectively. Our classification of these operations as discontinued requires retrospective application to financial information for all prior periods presented. Therefore, such assets and liabilities at December 31, 2020, and operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, have been recast and classified as discontinued operations on our Balance Sheet and Statement of Operations, respectively. We are completing construction of the Retained Shipyard Contracts within our F&S Facility and are winding down our Shipyard Division operations, which is anticipated to occur by mid-2022. The assets, liabilities and operating results attributable to the Retained Shipyard Contracts and remaining assets and liabilities of our Shipyard Division operations that were excluded from the Shipyard Transaction, and are not associated with the previously closed facilities, represent our Shipyard Segment and are classified as continuing operations on our Balance Sheet and Statement of Operations. Discontinued operations are presented separately from continuing operations on our Balance Sheet and Statement of Operations; however, they are not presented separately on our Statement of Cash Flows.

As a result of the Shipyard Transaction and classification of certain Shipyard Division operations as discontinued operations, certain allocations that were previously reflected within our Shipyard Division have been reclassified to our Corporate Division and Fabrication & Services Division for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. Further, legal costs associated with our MPSV dispute that were previously reflected within our Corporate Division have been reclassified to our Shipyard Division for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. See Note 8 for a summary of the reclassifications to our previously reported segment results and Note 6 for further discussion of our MPSV dispute.

Given the PPP Loan was not forgiven as of June 30, 2021, we have recorded the full amount as debt on our Balance Sheet at June 30, 2021, with the current and noncurrent debt classification based upon the actual amounts repaid and forgiven in July 2021. At December 31, 2020, the current and noncurrent debt classification was based on the terms and conditions of the PPP Loan and in accordance with the PPP, as amended, and timing of required repayment absent any loan forgiveness. The gain from the forgiveness of the PPP Loan and accrued interest will be reflected in the third quarter 2021.

Mortgage Agreement and Restrictive Covenant Agreement
On April 19, 2021, and in connection with the receipt of a consent for the Shipyard Transaction from one of our Sureties, we entered into a multiple indebtedness mortgage (the “Mortgage Agreement”) and a restrictive covenant arrangement (the “Restrictive Covenant Agreement”) with such Surety to secure our obligations and liabilities under our general indemnity agreement with the Surety associated with its outstanding surety bond obligations for our MPSV projects and two seventy-vehicle ferry projects. The Mortgage Agreement encumbers all remaining real estate that was not sold in connection with the Shipyard Transaction and includes certain covenants and events of default. Further, the Restrictive Covenant Agreement precludes us from making dividends or repurchasing shares of our common stock. The Mortgage Agreement and Restrictive Covenant Agreement will terminate when the obligations and liabilities of the Surety associated with the outstanding surety bonds are discharged, or any judgment against us or the Surety arising out of litigation related to such contracts is satisfied by us.
6. |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES |
We are subject to various routine legal proceedings in the normal conduct of our business, primarily involving commercial disputes and claims, workers’ compensation claims, and claims for personal injury under general maritime laws of the U.S. and the Jones Act. While the outcome of these lawsuits, legal proceedings and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe that the outcome of any such proceedings, even if determined adversely, would not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
MPSV Termination Letter
During the first quarter 2018, we received notices of termination from our customer of the contracts for the construction of
On October 2, 2018, we filed a lawsuit against our customer to enforce our rights and remedies under the applicable construction contracts for the two MPSVs. The lawsuit was filed in the Twenty-Second Judicial District Court for the Parish of St. Tammany, State of Louisiana and is styled Gulf Island Shipyards, LLC v. Hornbeck Offshore Services, LLC. The customer responded to our lawsuit denying many of the allegations in the lawsuit and asserting a counterclaim against us. We filed a response to the counterclaim denying all of the customer’s claims. The customer subsequently filed an amendment to its counterclaim to add claims by the customer against the Surety. The customer also filed a motion for partial summary judgment with the trial court seeking, among other things, to obtain possession of the vessels, which was denied by the trial court. The customer subsequently filed a second motion for partial summary judgment re-urging its previously denied request to obtain possession of the vessels, which was again denied by the trial court. Thereafter, the customer requested that the appellate court exercise its discretion and review and reverse the trial court’s denial of the customer’s second motion, which was denied.
On May 19, 2020, the customer filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. The customer’s prepackaged Chapter 11 plan of reorganization was subsequently confirmed by the bankruptcy court and that plan of reorganization is effective. In connection with its bankruptcy case, on June 3, 2020, the customer filed a separate bankruptcy adversary proceeding against us, in which it again sought to obtain possession of the vessels; however, the bankruptcy court’s decision was ultimately delayed to allow the parties an opportunity to mediate the dispute. The parties engaged in mediation until January 26, 2021 when the customer unilaterally and voluntarily dismissed its adversary proceeding seeking possession of the vessels. The mediation between the parties was not successful.
The lawsuit was temporarily stayed during the pendency of the customer’s Chapter 11 bankruptcy case; however, the lawsuit is no longer stayed and will proceed in the ordinary course. Discovery in connection with the lawsuit is ongoing, and the trial of the case is tentatively scheduled to begin on March 6, 2023. Other trial related deadlines have been tentatively established as well. We are conferring with the Surety regarding the lawsuit.
We are unable to estimate the probability of a favorable or unfavorable outcome with respect to the dispute or estimate the amount of potential loss, if any, related to this matter. We can provide no assurances that we will not incur additional costs as we pursue our rights and remedies under the contracts and defend against the customer’s claims. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, other noncurrent assets on our Balance Sheet included a net contract asset of $
- 17 -
Insurance
We may be exposed to future losses through our use of deductibles and self-insured retentions for our exposures related to third party liability and workers' compensation. We expect liabilities in excess of any deductibles and self-insured retentions to be covered by insurance. To the extent we are self-insured, reserves are recorded based upon our estimates, with input from legal and insurance advisors. Changes in assumptions, as well as changes in actual experience, could cause these estimates to change.
Letters of Credit and Surety Bonds
We obtain letters of credit under our LC Facility or surety bonds from financial institutions to provide to our customers in order to secure advance payments or guarantee performance under our contracts, or in lieu of retention being withheld on our contracts. Letters of credit under our LC Facility are subject to cash securitization of the full amount of the outstanding letters of credit. In the event of non-performance under a contract, our cash securitization with respect to the letter of credit supporting such contract would become property of Whitney Bank. With respect to a surety bond, any payment in the event of non-performance is subject to indemnification of the Surety by us. When a contract is complete, the contingent obligation terminates, and letters of credit or surety bonds are returned. See Note 5 for further discussion of our LC Facility and surety bonds.
Environmental Matters
Our operations are subject to extensive and changing U.S. federal, state and local laws and regulations, as well as the laws of other countries that establish health and environmental quality standards. These standards, among others, relate to air and water pollutants and the management and disposal of hazardous substances and wastes. We are exposed to potential liability for personal injury or property damage caused by any release, spill, exposure or other accident involving such pollutants, substances or wastes. In connection with the historical operation of our facilities, including those associated with acquired operations, substances that currently are or might be considered hazardous were used or disposed of at some sites that will or may require us to make expenditures for remediation. We believe we are in compliance, in all material respects, with environmental laws and regulations and maintain insurance coverage to mitigate exposure to environmental liabilities. We do not believe any environmental matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flow.

OPERATING SEGMENTS |
We currently operate and manage our business through
Fabrication & Services Division – Our Fabrication & Services (“F&S”) Division fabricates modules, skids and piping systems for onshore refining, petrochemical, LNG and industrial facilities and offshore facilities; fabricates foundations, secondary steel components and support structures for alternative energy developments and coastal mooring facilities; fabricates offshore production platforms and associated structures, including jacket foundations, piles and topsides for fixed production and utility platforms, as well
- 18 -
as hulls and topsides for floating production and utility platforms; fabricates other complex steel structures and components; provides services on offshore platforms, including welding, interconnect piping and other services required to connect production equipment and service modules and equipment; provides on-site construction and maintenance services on inland platforms and structures and industrial facilities; and performs municipal and drainage projects, including pump stations, levee reinforcement, bulkheads and other public works. These activities are performed at our F&S Facility.
Shipyard Division – Prior to the Shipyard Transaction, our Shipyard Division fabricated newbuild marine vessels and provided marine repair and maintenance services. These activities were performed at our Shipyard Facility. As discussed in Note 3, on April 19, 2021, we completed the Shipyard Transaction, which resulted in the sale of our Shipyard Facility and the Divested Shipyard Contracts. We determined the assets, liabilities and operations associated with the Shipyard Transaction and certain previously closed facilities to be discontinued operations in the second quarter 2021. The assets, liabilities and operating results attributable to the Retained Shipyard Contracts and remaining assets and liabilities of our Shipyard Division operations that were excluded from the Shipyard Transaction, and are not associated with the previously closed facilities, represent our Shipyard Segment and are classified as continuing operations on our Balance Sheet and Statement of Operations. See Note 3 for further discussion of the Shipyard Transaction and our discontinued operations.
Corporate Division – Our Corporate Division includes costs that do not directly relate to our two operating divisions. Such costs include, but are not limited to, costs of maintaining our corporate office, executive management salaries and incentives, board of directors' fees, certain insurance costs and costs associated with overall corporate governance and being a publicly traded company. Costs incurred by our Corporate Division on behalf of our operating divisions are allocated to the operating divisions. Such costs include, but are not limited to, human resources, insurance, information technology and accounting.
Other – As a result of the Shipyard Transaction and classification of certain Shipyard Division operations as discontinued operations, certain allocations that were previously reflected within our Shipyard Division have been reclassified to our Corporate Division and Fabrication & Services Division for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. Further, legal costs associated with our MPSV dispute that were previously reflected within our Corporate Division have been reclassified to our Shipyard Division for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. See Note 3 for further discussion of the Shipyard Transaction and our discontinued operations and Note 6 for further discussion of our MPSV dispute

We caution readers that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and actual results may differ materially from those anticipated, projected or assumed in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that can cause our actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements include: the duration and scope of, and uncertainties associated with, the ongoing global pandemic caused by COVID-19 (including new and emerging strains and variants), and the corresponding weakened demand for, and volatility of prices of, oil and the impact thereof on our business and the global economy; our ability to secure new project awards, including fabrication projects for refining, petrochemical, LNG, industrial and sustainable energy end markets; our ability to improve project execution; our inability to realize the expected financial benefits of the Shipyard Transaction; the cyclical nature of the oil and gas industry; competition; consolidation of our customers; timing and award of new contracts; reliance on significant customers; financial ability and credit worthiness of our customers; nature of our contract terms; competitive pricing and cost overruns on our projects; adjustments to previously reported profits or losses under the percentage-of-completion method; weather conditions; changes in contract estimates; suspension or termination of projects; our ability to raise additional capital; our ability to amend or obtain new debt financing or credit facilities on favorable terms; our ability to generate sufficient cash flow; our ability to sell certain assets; any future asset impairments; utilization of facilities or closure or consolidation of facilities; customer or subcontractor disputes; our ability to resolve the dispute with a customer relating to the purported terminations of contracts to build two MPSVs and the dispute with a customer related to contracts to build two seventy-vehicle ferries; operating dangers and limits on insurance coverage; barriers to entry into new lines of business; our ability to employ skilled workers; loss of key personnel; performance of subcontractors and dependence on suppliers; changes in trade policies of the U.S. and other countries; compliance with regulatory and environmental laws; lack of navigability of canals and rivers; systems and information technology interruption or failure and data security breaches; performance of partners in any future joint ventures and other strategic alliances; shareholder activism; focus on environmental, social and governance factors by institutional investors and regulators; and other factors described under "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of our 2020 Annual Report as updated under “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A of our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, and as may be further updated by subsequent filings with the SEC.
Additional factors or risks that we currently deem immaterial, that are not presently known to us or that arise in the future could also cause our actual results to differ materially from our expected results. Given these uncertainties, investors are cautioned that many of the assumptions upon which our forward-looking statements are based are likely to change after the date the forward-looking statements are made, which we cannot control. Further, we may make changes to our business plans that could affect our results. We caution investors that we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made, for any reason, whether as a result of new information, future events or developments, changed circumstances, or otherwise, and notwithstanding any changes in our assumptions, changes in business plans, actual experience or other changes.
Overview
We are a leading fabricator of complex steel structures and modules and provider of project management, hookup, commissioning, repair, maintenance and civil construction services. Our customers include U.S. and, to a lesser extent, international energy producers; refining, petrochemical, LNG, industrial and power operators; and EPC companies. We currently operate and manage our business through two operating divisions (“Fabrication & Services” and “Shipyard”) and one non-operating division (“"Corporate”), which represent our reportable segments. Our corporate headquarters is located in Houston, Texas and our operating facilities are located in Houma, Louisiana. On April 19, 2021, we sold our Shipyard Division operating assets and certain construction contracts (“Shipyard Transaction”) and intend to wind down our remaining Shipyard Division operations by mid-2022.
- 21 -
We determined the Shipyard operations associated with the Shipyard Transaction, and associated with certain previously closed Shipyard Division facilities, to be discontinued operations in the second quarter 2021. Accordingly, such operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, have been classified as discontinued operations. Our classification of these operations as discontinued requires retrospective application to financial information for all prior periods presented. Therefore, such operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, have been recast and classified as discontinued operations within the financial information presented below. In addition, certain allocations that were previously reflected within our Shipyard Division have been reclassified to our Corporate Division and Fabrication & Services Division for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. Further, legal costs associated with our MPSV dispute that were previously reflected within our Corporate Division have been reclassified to our Shipyard Division for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. The operating results attributable to the Retained Shipyard Contracts and remaining Shipyard Division operations that were excluded from the Shipyard Transaction, and are not associated with the previously closed facilities, are classified as continuing operations within the financial information presented below. Unless otherwise noted, the amounts presented below, and the associated discussion and analysis, relate to our continuing operations. See Note 8 of our Financial Statements in Item 1 for further discussion of our operating divisions and a summary of the reclassifications to our previously reported segment results and Note 3 for further discussion of the Shipyard Transaction and our discontinued operations.
Significant projects in backlog for our Fabrication & Services Division include the fabrication of marine docking structures; and material supply for an offshore jacket and deck. Significant projects in backlog for our Shipyard Division include construction of three vehicle ferries. Notable projects completed in recent years for our Fabrication & Services Division include the expansion of a paddlewheel riverboat; and fabrication of modules for an offshore facility, an offshore jacket and deck, modules for a petrochemical facility, and a meteorological tower and platform for an offshore wind project. Other significant completed projects for our Fabrication & Services Division include the fabrication of wind turbine foundations for the first offshore wind project in the U.S.; and construction of two of the largest liftboats servicing the Gulf of Mexico (“GOM”), one of the deepest production jackets in the Gulf of Mexico, and the first single point anchor reservoir hull fabricated in the U.S.
COVID-19 and Oil Price Impacts to Operations
For the last several years, the price of oil has been at depressed levels and/or experienced significant volatility, resulting in a significant and sustained reduction in capital spending and drilling activities from our traditional offshore oil and gas customer base. Consequently, our operating results and cash flows have been negatively impacted as we experienced reductions in revenue, lower margins due to competitive pricing, significant under-utilization of our operating facilities and resources, and losses on certain projects. Additionally, the ongoing global coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19”) has added another layer of pressure and uncertainty on oil prices and our end markets, which has further impacted our operations. COVID-19 (including its new and emerging strains and variants) is a widespread public health crisis that continues to adversely affect global economies and financial markets.
During 2020, our operations (as well as the operations of our customers, subcontractors and other counterparties) were negatively impacted by the physical distancing, quarantine and isolation measures recommended by national, state and local authorities on large portions of the population, and mandatory business closures that were enacted in an attempt to control COVID-19. We continue to monitor the impact of COVID-19 on our operations and recognize that it could continue to negatively impact our business and results of operations during the remainder of 2021 and beyond. Even with widespread distribution of vaccines, hesitancy or resistance to the vaccines among certain groups, as well as uncertainty about their long-term efficacy or effectiveness against new COVID-19 strains and variants, remain. The extent to which our operations and financial performance will be impacted by COVID-19 during the remainder of 2021 will depend largely on future developments, including global availability and acceptance of the vaccines. Authorities in some areas of the U.S. have begun to relax COVID-19 restrictions; however, if the areas where we have our headquarters and operating facilities, or areas where our customers, subcontractors and other counterparties have operations, were to experience periods of resurgence in the numbers of cases of the virus, including through the spread of new, more contagious or deadly strains and variants of the virus, authorities may reinstate restrictions, quarantine and isolation measures. The measures taken, while intended to protect human life, have had and are expected to continue to have a serious adverse impact on domestic and foreign economies of uncertain severity and duration.
The continued level of uncertainty means the ultimate business and financial impacts of COVID-19 and volatility in oil prices cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, but have included, or may include, among other things, reduced bidding activity, suspension or termination of backlog, deterioration of customer financial condition, potential supply disruptions and unanticipated project costs due to project disruptions and schedule delays, lower labor productivity, increased employee and contractor absenteeism and turnover, craft labor hiring challenges, lack of performance by subcontractors and suppliers, and contract disputes. Management’s estimates in future periods will be revised for any events and changes in circumstances arising after the date of this Report for the impacts of COVID-19 and volatile oil prices.
See Note 2 of our Financial Statements in Item 1 for further discussion of the impacts of the aforementioned on our projects and Note 1 for further discussion of the impacts of COVID-19 and volatility in oil prices. See also “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our 2020 Annual Report.

Initiatives to Improve Operating Results
We are addressing these operational, market and economic challenges through a strategy focused on the following initiatives to:
|
• |
Mitigate the impacts of COVID-19 on our operations, employees and contractors; |
|
• |
Reduce our risk profile through the completion of the Shipyard Transaction and anticipated wind down of the Shipyard Division operations; |
|
• |
Preserve and improve our liquidity through cost reduction efforts, the completion of the Shipyard Transaction, and the sale of under-utilized assets; |
|
• |
Improve our resource utilization and centralize key project resources through the rationalization and integration of our facilities and operations; |
|
• |
Improve our competitiveness and project execution by enhancing our proposal, estimating and operations resources, processes and procedures; |
|
• |
Expand our skilled workforce by focusing on ways to improve retention and enhance and add to our craft personnel; and |
|
• |
Reduce our reliance on the offshore oil and gas sector and pursue more stable, profitable growth by repositioning the Company to: |
|
– |
Fabricate modules, piping systems and other structures for onshore refining, petrochemical, LNG and industrial facilities; |
|
– |
Diversify our offshore services customer base, increase our offshore services offerings and expand our services business to include onshore facilities along the Gulf Coast; |
|
– |
Fabricate structures in support of our customers as they make energy transitions away from fossil fuels; and |
|
– |
Fabricate foundations, secondary steel components and support structures for offshore wind developments. |
The progress and status of these initiatives is summarized further below.
Efforts to mitigate the impacts of COVID-19 on our operations, employees and contractors – We are continuing to take actions to mitigate the impacts of COVID-19 on our operations while ensuring the safety and well-being of our employees and contractors.
|
• |
COVID-19 measures – We have ongoing communications with our leadership team to anticipate and proactively address COVID-19 impacts, work-place distancing of employees (including allowing some employees to work remotely) and regular monitoring of office and yard personnel for compliance. We are also monitoring employee and visitor temperatures prior to entering our facilities, implemented employee and visitor wellness questionnaires, increased monitoring of employee absenteeism and the reasons for such absences, and have established protocols for employees returning from absences, including employees that have tested positive for COVID-19, or have come in contact with individuals that tested positive for COVID-19. In addition, we have installed hand sanitizing stations and taken additional actions to more frequently sanitize our facilities. |
|
• |
Pursuit of force majeure – We have given appropriate notices to our customers and have made the appropriate claims for extensions of schedule for our projects that were impacted by COVID-19. |
|
• |
Loan agreement – On April 17, 2020, we entered into an unsecured loan in the aggregate amount of $10.0 million (“PPP Loan”) with Whitney Bank pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). The proceeds were used for payroll costs, rent and utilities, of which approximately 93% was used for payroll costs. In July 2021, the SBA approved our application for forgiveness of $8.9 million of the PPP Loan, and we repaid the remaining balance of the PPP Loan. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below and Notes 5 and 9 of our Financial Statements in Item 1 for further discussion of the PPP Loan. |
Efforts to reduce our risk profile – The completion of the Shipyard Transaction improves our risk profile by removing potential future risks associated with the Divested Shipyard Contracts that represented approximately 90% of our backlog and extended through 2024. Further, the wind down of the Shipyard Division operations after completion of the Retained Shipyard Contracts will further reduce our risk profile as it will position us for profitable growth in existing and new higher-margin markets associated with our Fabrication & Services Division. See “Operating Segments” below and Note 2 of our Financial Statements in Item 1 for further discussion of our project impacts.
- 23 -
Efforts to preserve and improve our liquidity – We continue to take actions to preserve and improve our liquidity, and at June 30, 2021 our cash, current restricted cash and short-term investments totaled $74.5 million. To preserve our liquidity position, we have undertaken cost reduction initiatives (including reducing the compensation of our executive officers and directors and reducing the size of our board in 2020), monetized under-utilized assets and facilities (including the sale of assets held for sale for net proceeds of $4.4 million in the second quarter 2021) and are maintaining an ongoing focus on project cash flow management. Further, as discussed above, we received the PPP Loan in the second quarter 2020, which provided funding necessary to offset the immediate and anticipated impacts of COVID-19. It also provided us additional liquidity, which is important because a strong balance sheet is required to execute our backlog and compete for new project awards, and we experience significant monthly fluctuations in our working capital. In addition, as a result of the Shipyard Transaction and anticipated wind down of the Shipyard Division operations, our bonding, letters of credit and working capital requirements related to the Divested Shipyard Contracts and ongoing Shipyard Division operations have been significantly reduced.
Efforts to improve our resource utilization and centralize key project resources – We are improving our resource utilization and centralizing key project resources through the rationalization and integration of our facilities and operations.
|
• |
Combination of our Fabrication Division and Services Division – During the first quarter 2020, we combined our Fabrication Division and Services Division to form an integrated division called Fabrication & Services. The integration is enabling us to capitalize on the best practices and execution experience of the former divisions, conform processes and procedures, maximize the utilization of our resources (including reducing overhead costs) and improve project execution. |
|
• |
Closure of Jennings Facility and Lake Charles Facility – During the fourth quarter 2020, we closed our Jennings Facility and Lake Charles Facility, reducing overhead costs, improving utilization and accelerating the wind down of our Shipyard Division operations discussed further below. |
|
• |
Completion of Shipyard Transaction and wind down of Shipyard Division operations – During the second quarter 2021, we completed the Shipyard Transaction and intend to wind down the Shipyard Division operations upon completion of the Retained Shipyard Contracts, which is expected to reduce overhead costs, improve utilization and enable senior management to focus on existing and new higher-margin markets associated with our Fabrication & Services Division. |
Efforts to improve our competitiveness and project execution – We have taken, and continue to take, actions to improve our competitiveness and project execution by enhancing our proposal, estimating and operations resources, processes and procedures. Our actions include strategic changes in management and key personnel, the addition of functional expertise, project management training, development of a formal “lessons learned” program, and other measures designed to strengthen our personnel, processes and procedures. Further, we are taking a disciplined approach to pursuing and bidding project opportunities, putting more rigor around our bid estimates to provide greater confidence that our estimates are achievable, increasing accountability and providing incentives for the execution of projects in line with our original estimates and subsequent forecasts, and incorporating previous experience on projects into the bidding and execution of future projects.
Efforts to expand our skilled workforce – We are focused on ways to improve retention and enhance and add to our skilled, craft personnel, as we believe a strong workforce will be a key differentiator in pursing new project awards given the scarcity of available skilled labor.
Efforts to reduce our reliance on the offshore oil and gas sector and pursue more stable, profitable growth – We are pursuing several initiatives to reduce our reliance on the fabrication of structures associated with the offshore oil and gas sector.
|
• |
Fabrication of onshore modules, piping systems and structures – We continue to focus our business development efforts on the fabrication of modules, piping systems and other structures for onshore refining, petrochemical, LNG and industrial facilities. We have experienced success with several smaller project opportunities, and our volume of bidding activity for onshore modules, piping systems and structures is increasing; however, our pursuit of large project opportunities has been impacted by the timing and delay of certain opportunities due in part to COVID-19, volatile oil prices and an ongoing competitive market environment. We also continue to believe that our strategic location in Houma, Louisiana and track record of quality and on-time completion of onshore modules position us well to compete in the onshore fabrication market. However, we do not expect large project opportunities to be awarded by customers until late 2021 or 2022. This timing may be impacted by ongoing uncertainty created by the volatility of oil prices and COVID-19. In the interim, we continue to strengthen our relationships with key customers and strategic partners and enhance our resources as discussed above. |
|
• |
Diversify our offshore services customer base, increase our offshore services offerings and expand our services business to include onshore facilities along the Gulf Coast – We believe diversifying and expanding our services business will deliver a more stable revenue stream while providing underpinning work to recruit, develop and retain our craft professionals. We will also partner with original equipment manufacturers to provide critical services to our customers along the Gulf Coast. |
- 24 -
|
• |
Fabricate structures in support of our customers as they make energy transitions away from fossil fuels – We believe that our expertise and capabilities provide us with the necessary foundation to fabricate steel structures in support of our customers as they transition away from fossil fuels to green energy end markets. Examples of these opportunities include refiners who are looking to process biofuels and customers looking to embrace the growing hydrogen economy. |
|
• |
Fabrication of offshore wind foundations, secondary steel components and support structures – We continue to believe that current initiatives, and potential future requirements, to provide electricity from renewable and green sources will result in growth of offshore wind projects. Furthermore, we believe that we possess the expertise to fabricate foundations, secondary steel components and support structures for this emerging market. This is demonstrated by our fabrication of wind turbine foundations for the first offshore wind project in the U.S. and the fabrication of a meteorological tower and platform for an offshore wind project. While we believe we have the capability to participate in this emerging market, we do not expect meaningful opportunities in the near term. |
Operating Outlook
Our focus remains on securing profitable new project awards and backlog in the near-term and generating operating income and cash flows in the longer-term, while ensuring the safety and well-being of our employees and contractors, which has been further challenged due to COVID-19. Our success, including achieving the aforementioned initiatives, will be determined by, among other things:
|
• |
Oil and gas prices and the level of volatility in such prices, including the impact of environmental regulations that restrict the oil and gas industry under the new administration and Congress; |
|
• |
COVID-19, for which the ultimate business and financial impacts cannot be reasonably estimated at this time; |
|
• |
The level of fabrication opportunities in our traditional offshore markets and the new markets that we are pursuing, including refining, petrochemical, LNG and industrial facilities (especially in light of the new administration and Congress), green energy and offshore wind developments; |
|
• |
Our ability to secure new project awards through competitive bidding and/or alliance and partnering arrangements; |
|
• |
Our ability to execute projects within our cost estimates and successfully manage them through completion (including the Retained Shipyard Contracts); |
|
• |
Our ability to hire, develop, motivate and retain key personnel and craft labor to execute our projects; |
|
• |
The successful integration of our Fabrication Division and Services Division and the wind down of our Shipyard Division operations; and |
|
• |
Our ability to resolve our dispute with a customer related to the construction of two MPSVs (see Note 6 of our Financial Statements in Item 1 and “Legal Proceedings” in Part II, Item 1 for further discussion of the dispute). |
In addition, the near-term utilization of our Fabrication & Services Division will be impacted by the delay in timing of new project awards and will be impacted by continued inefficiencies and disruptions associated with COVID-19 related health and safety mitigation measures, employee absenteeism and turnover, craft labor hiring challenges, engineering delays, and supplier and subcontractor disruptions. Our near-term results may also be adversely affected by costs associated with (i) the retention of certain personnel that previously supported both our operating divisions but may be temporarily under-utilized due to the Shipyard Transaction as we evaluate our resource requirements to support our future operations, and (ii) investments in key personnel and process improvement efforts to support our aforementioned initiatives. See Note 1 of our Financial Statements in Item 1 for further discussion of the impacts of COVID-19 and volatility in oil prices and Note 2 and “Results of Operations” below for discussion of our project impacts.
Critical Accounting Policies
For a discussion of critical accounting policies and estimates used in the preparation of our Financial Statements, refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part II, Item 7 included in our 2020 Annual Report. There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies since December 31, 2020.
- 25 -
New Awards and Backlog
New project awards represent expected revenue values of commitments received during a given period, including scope growth on existing commitments. A commitment represents authorization from our customer to begin work or purchase materials pursuant to a written agreement, letter of intent or other form of authorization. Backlog represents the unrecognized revenue for our new project awards and at June 30, 2021, was comparable to the value of remaining performance obligations for our contracts required to be disclosed under Topic 606 and presented in Note 2 of our Financial Statements in Item 1. In general, a performance obligation is a contractual obligation to construct and/or transfer a distinct good or service to a customer. The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. We believe that backlog provides useful information to investors as it represents work that we are contractually obligated to perform under our current contracts. New project awards and backlog may vary significantly each reporting period based on the timing of our major new contract commitments. Backlog may differ from our remaining performance obligations, which are determined in accordance with GAAP.
Projects in our backlog are generally subject to delay, suspension, termination, or an increase or decrease in scope at the option of the customer; however, the customer is required to pay us for work performed and materials purchased through the date of termination, suspension, or decrease in scope. Depending on the size of the project, the delay, suspension, termination or increase or reduction in scope of any one contract could significantly impact our backlog and change the expected amount and timing of revenue recognized.

In connection with the Shipyard Transaction, backlog associated with the Divested Shipyard Contracts totaling $303.1 million was sold. We expect to recognize revenue of approximately $17.6 million and $6.3 million for the remainder of 2021 and thereafter, respectively, associated with our backlog at June 30, 2021. The timing of recognition of the revenue presented in our backlog is based on our current estimates to complete the projects. Certain factors and circumstances could cause changes in the amounts ultimately recognized and the timing of recognition of revenue from our backlog. See Note 3 of our Financial Statements in Item 1 for further discussion of the Shipyard Transaction. |

|
• |
Cost reduction initiatives including combining our former Fabrication Division and Services Division in the first quarter 2020, offset partially by, |
|
• |
Higher incentive plan and insurance costs, and |
|
• |
Higher costs associated with initiatives to diversify and enhance our business. |
General and administrative expense included legal and advisory fees of $0.3 million and $0.2 million for 2021 and 2020, respectively, associated with our MPSV contract dispute, which are reflected within our Shipyard Division. See Note 6 of our Financial Statements in Item 1 for further discussion of our MPSV dispute.
Other (income) expense, net – Other (income) expense, net for 2021 was income of $0.4 million. Other (income) expense, net generally represents recoveries or provisions for bad debts, gains or losses associated with the sale or disposition of property and equipment other than assets held for sale, and income or expense associated with certain nonrecurring items. Other income for 2021 was primarily related to gains on the sales of equipment and scrap materials and insurance recoveries associated with property damage to our Lake Charles Facility previously caused by Hurricane Laura.
Interest (expense) income, net – Interest (expense) income, net for 2021 and 2020 was expense of $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively. Interest (expense) income, net consists of interest earned on our cash and short-term investment balances, interest incurred on the PPP Loan and the unused portion of our LC Facility, and interest amortization associated with our long-term lease liability and deferred financing costs on our LC Facility.
Income tax (expense) benefit – Income tax (expense) benefit for 2021 and 2020 represents state income taxes. No federal income tax benefit was recorded for either period as a full valuation allowance was recorded against our net deferred tax assets generated during the periods.

Operating results from discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2021 include results through April 19, 2021, the Closing Date of the Shipyard Transaction. References below to 2021 and 2020 refer to the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Revenue – Revenue for 2021 and 2020 was $6.5 million and $28.0 million, respectively, representing a decrease of 39.5%. The decrease was primarily due to:
|
• |
No revenue for our harbor tug projects in 2021 as the last vessel was completed in the first quarter 2021, and |
|
• |
Lower revenue for our research vessel projects and towing, salvage and rescue ship projects that were sold in connection with the Shipyard Transaction in April 2021. |
Gross profit (loss) – Gross profit for 2021 was $0.1 million (1.0% of revenue) compared to a gross loss of $1.0 million (3.5% of revenue) for 2020. Gross profit for 2021 was primarily impacted by:
|
• |
A backlog for our discontinued operations that was generally at, or near, break-even or in a loss position, and accordingly, resulted in revenue with low or no gross profit, and |
|
• |
The partial under-recovery of overhead costs associated with the under-utilization of our facilities and resources. |
The gross profit for 2021 relative to the gross loss for 2020 was primarily due to:
|
• |
Project charges of $0.6 million for 2020 on our harbor tug projects, and |
|
• |
A decrease in the under-recovery of overhead costs. |
See Note 3 of our Financial Statements in Item 1 for further discussion of our project impacts attributable to discontinued operations.
General and administrative expense – General and administrative expense for 2021 and 2020 was $0.1 million (1.1% of revenue) and $0.4 million (1.3% of revenue), respectively, representing a decrease of 79.3%. The decrease was primarily due to the Shipyard Transaction in April 2021.
Impairments and (gain) loss on assets held for sale – Impairments and (gain) loss on assets held for sale for 2021 was a loss of $1.9 million. The loss for 2021 related to transaction and other costs associated with the Shipyard Transaction. See Note 3 of our Financial Statements in Item 1 for further discussion of the Shipyard Transaction.
Other (income) expense, net – Other (income) expense, net for 2021 was income of $0.7 million. Other income for 2021 was primarily due to a gain of $0.6 million resulting from insurance recoveries associated with damage previously caused by Hurricane Laura to a drydock that was sold in connection with the Shipyard Transaction.

References below to 2021 and 2020 refer to the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
New Project Awards – New project awards for 2021 and 2020 were $29.7 million and $39.8 million, respectively. Significant new project awards for 2021 include small-scale fabrication and offshore services work within our Fabrication & Services Division. Significant new project awards for 2020 include:
|
• |
A marine docking structures project in the second quarter 2020 within our Fabrication & Services Division, |
|
• |
Additional scopes of work for our offshore jacket and deck project in the second quarter 2020 within our Fabrication & Services Division, and |
|
• |
Small-scale fabrication and offshore services work within our Fabrication & Services Division. |
Revenue – Revenue for 2021 and 2020 was $48.1 million and $69.7 million, respectively, representing a decrease of 31.0%. The decrease was primarily due to:
Decreased revenue for our Fabrication & Services Division of $19.8 million, primarily attributable to:
|
• |
No revenue for our paddlewheel river boat project and offshore jacket and deck project that were completed in the first quarter 2020 and third quarter 2020, respectively, |
|
• |
Lower revenue for our material supply project, and |
|
• |
Reduced onshore services activity, offset partially by, |
|
• |
Higher revenue for our marine docking structures project, offshore modules project and a subsea structures project, and |
|
• |
Increased offshore services and small-scale fabrication project activity. |
Decreased revenue for our Shipyard Division of $2.3 million, primarily attributable to:
|
• |
Lower revenue for our two forty-vehicle ferry projects due to reduced procurement and construction activities, offset partially by, |
|
• |
Higher revenue for our seventy-vehicle ferry project due to increased construction activities. |
- 32 -
Gross profit (loss) – Gross profit for 2021 was $1.0 million (2.1% of revenue) compared to a gross loss of $1.2 million (1.7% of revenue) for 2020. Gross profit for 2021 was primarily impacted by:
|
• |
Project improvements of $2.0 million for our Fabrication & Services Division, offset partially |
|
• |
Project charges of $1.7 million for our Shipyard Division, |
|
• |
Low revenue volume for our Fabrication & Services Division, |
|
• |
The partial under-recovery of overhead costs associated with the under-utilization of our facilities and resources within our Fabrication & Services Division, and |
|
• |
Holding costs of $0.3 million for our Shipyard Division related to the two MPSV vessels that remain in our possession and are subject to dispute. |
The gross profit for 2021 relative to the gross loss for 2020 was primarily due to:
|
• |
The aforementioned project improvements of $2.0 million for 2021 for our Fabrication & Services Division, |
|
• |
Project charges of $1.2 million for 2020 for our Shipyard Division, |
|
• |
A higher margin mix relative to 2020 for our Fabrication & Services Division, and |
|
• |
A decrease in the under-recovery of overhead costs for our Fabrication & Services Division, offset partially by, |
|
• |
The aforementioned project charges of $1.7 million for 2021 for our Shipyard Division, |
|
• |
Project improvements of $1.9 million for 2020 for our Fabrication & Services Division, and |
|
• |
Lower revenue volume for our Fabrication & Services Division. |
See “Operating Segments” below and Note 2 of our Financial Statements in Item 1 for further discussion of our project impacts.
General and administrative expense – General and administrative expense for 2021 and 2020 was $5.9 million (12.2% of revenue) and $6.7 million (9.6% of revenue), respectively, representing a decrease of 12.0%. The decrease was primarily due to:
|
• |
Lower external audit and legal and advisory fees, |
|
• |
Cost reduction initiatives including combining our former Fabrication Division and Services Division in the first quarter 2020, and |
|
• |
Other cost savings including reductions in board size and the salaries of our executive officers in the second quarter 2020, offset partially by, |
|
• |
Higher incentive plan and insurance costs, and |
|
• |
Higher costs associated with initiatives to diversify and enhance our business. |
General and administrative expense included legal and advisory fees of $0.5 million and $0.6 million for 2021 and 2020, respectively, associated with our MPSV contract dispute, which are reflected within our Shipyard Division. See Note 6 of our Financial Statements in Item 1 for further discussion of our MPSV dispute.
Other (income) expense, net – Other (income) expense, net for 2021 and 2020 was income of $0.9 million and $10.0 million, respectively. Other (income) expense, net generally represents recoveries or provisions for bad debts, gains or losses associated with the sale or disposition of property and equipment other than assets held for sale, and income or expense associated with certain nonrecurring items. Other income for 2021 was primarily related to a gain of $0.4 million associated with the settlement of a property tax dispute and gains on the sales of equipment and scrap materials. Other income for 2020 was primarily related to a gain of $10.0 million associated with the settlement of a contract dispute in the first quarter 2020 for a project completed in 2015. See Note 1 of our Financial Statements in Item 1 for further discussion of our settlement of the completed project dispute.
Interest (expense) income, net – Interest (expense) income, net for 2021 and 2020 was expense of $0.3 million and $0.1 million, respectively. Interest (expense) income, net consists of interest earned on our cash and short-term investment balances, interest incurred on the PPP Loan and the unused portion of our LC Facility, and interest amortization associated with our long-term lease liability and deferred financing costs on our LC Facility. The increase in expense for 2021 relative to 2020 was primarily due to the write-off of deferred financing costs in connection with the amendment of our LC Facility, interest on the PPP Loan, and lower interest rates and lower average cash and short-term investment balances for the 2021 period.
Income tax (expense) benefit – Income tax (expense) benefit for 2020 was expense of $0.1 million and represents state income taxes. No federal income tax benefit was recorded for 2021 as a full valuation allowance was recorded against our net deferred tax assets generated during the period and no expense was recorded for 2020 as it was fully offset by the reversal of valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets.

Operating results from discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 include results through April 19, 2021, the Closing Date of the Shipyard Transaction. References below to 2021 and 2020 refer to the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Revenue – Revenue for 2021 and 2020 was $41.6 million and $68.9 million, respectively, representing a decrease of 39.5%. The decrease was primarily due to:
|
• |
Lower revenue for our harbor tug projects as the last vessel was completed in the first quarter 2021, and |
|
• |
Lower revenue for our research vessel projects and towing, salvage and rescue ship projects that were sold in connection with the Shipyard Transaction in April 2021. |
Gross profit (loss) – Gross profit for 2021 was $7.7 million (18.6% of revenue) compared to a gross loss of $0.8 million (1.1% of revenue) for 2020. The gross profit for 2021 was primarily impacted by:
|
• |
Project improvements of $8.4 million related to the cumulative effect of a change order (offset partially by forecast cost increases) on our towing, salvage and rescue ship projects, offset partially by, |
|
• |
A backlog for our discontinued operations that was generally at, or near, break-even or in a loss position, and accordingly, resulted in revenue with low or no gross profit, and |
|
• |
The partial under-recovery of overhead costs associated with the under-utilization of our facilities and resources. |
- 36 -
The gross profit for 2021 relative to the gross loss for 2020 was primarily due to:
|
• |
The aforementioned project improvements of $8.4 million for 2021, |
|
• |
Project charges of $0.6 million for 2020 on our harbor tug projects, and |
|
• |
A decrease in the under-recovery of overhead costs. |
See Note 3 of our Financial Statements in Item 1 for further discussion of our project impacts attributable to discontinued operations.
General and administrative expense – General and administrative expense for 2021 and 2020 was $0.4 million (18.6% of revenue) and $0.8 million (1.1% of revenue), respectively, representing a decrease of 47.4%. The decrease was primarily due to the Shipyard Transaction in April 2021.
Impairments and (gain) loss on assets held for sale – Impairments and (gain) loss on assets held for sale for 2021 was a loss of $25.3 million, of which $22.8 million related to the impairment of our Shipyard Division’s long-lived assets and $2.5 million related to transaction and other costs associated with the Shipyard Transaction. See Note 3 of our Financial Statements in Item 1 for further discussion of the Shipyard Transaction.
Other (income) expense, net – Other (income) expense, net for 2021 and 2020 was income of $0.6 million and expense of $0.1 million, respectively. Other income for 2021 was primarily due to a gain of $0.6 million resulting from insurance recoveries associated with damage previously caused by Hurricane Laura to a drydock that was sold in connection with the Shipyard Transaction.

In July 2021, $7.0 million of outstanding letters of credit expired and the associated cash restriction was released. |
Our available liquidity is impacted by changes in our working capital and our capital expenditure requirements. Fluctuations in our working capital, and its components, are not unusual in our business and are impacted by the size of our projects and the mix of our backlog. Our working capital is particularly impacted by the timing of new project awards and related payments in advance of performing work, and the subsequent achievement of billing milestones or project progress on backlog. Working capital is also impacted at period-end by the timing of contracts receivable collections and accounts payable payments on our projects.
At June 30, 2021, our working capital was $72.5 million and included $74.5 million of cash, cash equivalents and current restricted cash, $1.8 million of assets held for sale and $1.1 million of current maturities of long-term debt. Excluding cash, cash equivalents, current restricted cash, assets held for sale and current maturities of long-term debt, our working capital at June 30, 2021 was negative $2.0 million, and consisted of: net contract assets and contract liabilities of negative $5.8 million; contracts receivable and retainage of $13.7 million; inventory, prepaid expenses and other current assets of $7.7 million; and accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $17.6 million.

The components of our working capital (excluding cash, cash equivalents, current restricted cash, assets held for sale and current maturities of long-term debt) at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and changes in such amounts during the six months ended June 30, 2021, was as follows (in thousands):

Our Statement of Cash Flows reflects changes in the above balance sheet accounts for both our continuing and discontinued operations; however, our Balance Sheet reflects the above balance sheet accounts separately for only our continuing operations. Accordingly, the “Change from Discontinued Operations” column in the table above reflects the impacts of discontinued operations to reconcile between the changes in such amounts between our Balance Sheet and our Statement of Cash Flows. |

Changes referenced in the cash flow activity section below may differ from the changes in this table due to non-cash reclassifications and due to certain changes in balance sheet accounts being reflected within other line items on the Statement of Cash Flows, including bad debt expense, gains and losses on sales of fixed assets and other assets, and accruals for capital expenditures. |

Operating Activities – Cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $11.4 million and $3.8 million, respectively, and was primarily due to the net impacts of the following:
2021 Activity
|
• |
Operating loss, excluding depreciation and amortization of $3.2 million, asset impairments of $22.8 million, loss on the Shipyard Transaction of $2.6 million, and stock-based compensation expense of $0.7 million; |
|
• |
Increase in contract assets of $4.6 million related to the timing of billings on projects, primarily due to increased unbilled positions on our Divested Shipyard Contracts, offset partially by decreased unbilled positions on our seventy-vehicle ferry project within our Shipyard Division and various projects within our Fabrication & Services Division; |
|
• |
Decrease in contract liabilities of $5.3 million, primarily due to a decrease in advance payments on our Divested Shipyard Contracts and our two forty-vehicle ferry projects and seventy-vehicle ferry project within our Shipyard Division; |
|
• |
Decrease in contract receivables and retainage of $1.7 million related to the timing of billings and collections on projects, primarily due to collections on our Divested Shipyard Contracts; |
|
• |
Increase in prepaid expenses, inventory and other assets of $0.7 million, primarily due to prepaid expenses and the associated timing of certain prepayments. Prepaid expenses and other assets at June 30, 2021, included $2.2 million associated with the Deferred Transaction Price; |
|
• |
Decrease in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $9.7 million, primarily due to the timing of payments and decreased accounts payable positions on our Divested Shipyard Contracts and various projects within our Fabrication & Services Division; and |
|
• |
Change in noncurrent assets and liabilities, net of $0.5 million. |
- 38 -
Cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021, included approximately $7.8 million associated with changes in contracts in progress, net for the Divested Shipyard Contracts, which was separately recovered through the Closing Adjustment and Closing Adjustment True-Up in connection with the Shipyard Transaction. See Note 3 of our Financial Statements in Item 1 for further discussion of the Shipyard Transaction.
2020 Activity
|
• |
Operating income, excluding depreciation and amortization of $4.3 million and stock-based compensation expense of $0.4 million; |
|
• |
Increase in contract assets of $25.7 million related to the timing of billings on projects, primarily due to increased unbilled positions on our Divested Shipyard Contracts and our jacket and deck project within our Fabrication & Services Division; |
|
• |
Increase in contract liabilities of $0.7 million, primarily due to net advance payments on our Divested Shipyard Contracts, offset partially by the unwind of advance payments on our offshore jacket and deck project and material supply project within our Fabrication & Services Division; |
|
• |
Decrease in contracts receivable and retainage of $12.7 million related to the timing of billings and collections on projects, primarily due to collections on our two forty-vehicle ferry projects within our Shipyard Division, and our material supply project and various other projects within our Fabrication & Services Division; |
|
• |
Decrease in prepaid expenses, inventory and other assets of $0.7 million, primarily due to prepaid expenses and the associated timing of certain prepayments; |
|
• |
Increase in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $0.2 million, primarily due to the wind down of various projects within our Fabrication & Services Division, offset partially by increased procurement activity and progress accruals for engineered equipment manufactured by vendors for our Divested Shipyard Contracts; and |
|
• |
Change in noncurrent assets and liabilities, net of $2.5 million, primarily due to the collection of long-term retention that was billed and collected during the second quarter 2020. |
Investing Activities – Cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $43.2 million, and cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $6.7 million. Cash provided by investing activities during 2021 was primarily due to net proceeds from the Shipyard Transaction of $31.7 million, proceeds from the sale of assets held for sale of $4.4 million, and net maturities of short-term investments of $8.0 million, offset partially by capital expenditures of $0.9 million. Cash used in investing activities during 2020 was primarily due to capital expenditures of $7.7 million (primarily associated with the Shipyard Division operations sold in connection with the Shipyard Transaction), offset partially by proceeds from the sale of assets held for sale of $1.1 million.
Financing Activities – Cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $0.1 million, and cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $9.9 million. Cash used in financing activities during 2021 was primarily due to tax payments made on behalf of employees from vested stock withholdings. Cash provided by financing activities during 2020 was primarily due to proceeds from the PPP Loan. See Notes 5 and 9 of our Financial Statements in Item 1 for further discussion of the PPP Loan.
Credit Facilities and Debt
LC Facility – We have a letter of credit facility with Hancock Whitney Bank (“Whitney Bank”) that provides for up to 20.0 million of letters of credit (“LC Facility”), subject to our cash securitization of the letters of credit, with a maturity date of June 30, 2023. Commitment fees on the unused portion of the LC Facility are 0.4% per annum and interest on outstanding letters of credit is 2.0% per annum. At June 30, 2021, we had $10.0 million of letters of credit outstanding under the LC Facility, of which $7.0 million expired in July 2021 and the associated cash restriction was released.
Loan Agreement – On April 17, 2020, we entered into an unsecured loan in the aggregate amount of $10.0 million (“PPP Loan”) with Whitney Bank pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, as amended (“CARES Act”). The PPP Loan, and accrued interest, were eligible to be forgiven partially or in full, if certain conditions were met. On September 29, 2020, we submitted our application to Whitney Bank, requesting PPP Loan forgiveness of $8.9 million plus any accrued interest. Whitney Bank approved our application for forgiveness on December 14, 2020, and our application was forwarded to the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) for review. Following the SBA’s approval of our application for forgiveness, on July 28, 2021, Whitney Bank received $9.1 million from the SBA, which was the amount of loan forgiveness requested, including accrued interest. On July 29, 2021, we repaid Whitney Bank the remaining balance of the PPP Loan, together with accrued interest. The forgiveness and repayment of the PPP Loan were effective as of July 7, 2021.
- 39 -
Given the PPP Loan was not forgiven as of June 30, 2021, we have recorded the full amount as debt on our Balance Sheet at June 30, 2021, with the current and noncurrent debt classification based upon the actual amounts repaid and forgiven in July 2021. At December 31, 2020, the current and noncurrent debt classification was based on the terms and conditions of the PPP Loan and in accordance with the PPP, as amended, and timing of required repayment absent any loan forgiveness. The gain from the forgiveness of the PPP Loan and accrued interest will be reflected in the third quarter 2021.
Because the amount borrowed exceeded $2.0 million, we are required by the SBA to retain all records relating to the PPP Loan for six years from the date the loan was forgiven and permit authorized representatives of the SBA to access such records upon request. While we believe we are a qualifying business and have met the eligibility requirements for the PPP Loan, and believe we have used the loan proceeds only for expenses which may be paid using proceeds from the PPP Loan (“Permissible Expenses”), we can provide no assurances that any potential SBA review or audit will verify the amount forgiven, in whole or in part, and we could be required to repay all or part of the forgiven amount.
Surety Bonds – We issue surety bonds in the ordinary course of business to support our projects. At June 30, 2021, we had $110.8 million of outstanding surety bonds, of which $50.0 million relates to our MPSV projects that are subject to dispute. It has been increasingly difficult to obtain additional bonding capacity and identify potential financing sources, due to, among other things, losses from our operations in recent years, including recent project charges attributable primarily to our Shipyard Division operations. We can provide no assurances that necessary bonding capacity will be available to support our future bonding requirements. See Note 6 of our Financial Statements in Item 1 for further discussion of our surety bonds and MPSV dispute and Note 5 and “Mortgage Agreement and Restrictive Covenant Agreement” below for discussion of our entry into agreements with one of our Sureties relating to the Retained Shipyard Contracts.
Mortgage Agreement and Restrictive Covenant Agreement – On April 19, 2021, and in connection with the receipt of a consent for the Shipyard Transaction from one of our Sureties, we entered into a multiple indebtedness mortgage (the “Mortgage Agreement”) and a restrictive covenant arrangement (the “Restrictive Covenant Agreement”) with such Surety to secure our obligations and liabilities under our general indemnity agreement with the Surety associated with its outstanding surety bond obligations for our MPSV projects and two seventy-vehicle ferry projects. The Mortgage Agreement encumbers all remaining real estate that was not sold in connection with the Shipyard Transaction and includes certain covenants and events of default. Further, the Restrictive Covenant Agreement precludes us from making dividends or repurchasing shares of our common stock. The Mortgage Agreement and Restrictive Covenant Agreement will terminate when the obligations and liabilities of the Surety associated with the outstanding surety bonds are discharged, or any judgment against us or the Surety arising out of litigation related to such contracts is satisfied by us. See Note 5 of our Financial Statements in Item 1 for further discussion of our Mortgage Agreement and Restrictive Covenant Agreement.
Liquidity Outlook
As discussed in our Overview, we continue to focus on securing profitable new project awards and backlog in the near-term and generating operating income and cash flows in the longer-term. We have made significant progress in our efforts to preserve and improve our liquidity, including cost reductions (including reducing the size of our board and reducing the compensation of our directors and executive officers in 2020), the sale of under-utilized assets and facilities (including the sale of assets held for sale for net proceeds of $4.4 million in the second quarter 2021), and an improved overall cash flow position on our projects in backlog and the completion of the Shipyard Transaction. In addition, at June 30, 2021, we continue to have $1.8 million of assets held for sale; however, we can provide no assurances that we will successfully sell the assets or that we will recover their carrying value. Further, as discussed above, we received the PPP Loan in the second quarter 2020, which provided funding necessary to offset the immediate and anticipated impacts of COVID-19. It also provided us important additional liquidity, which is important because as a strong balance sheet is required to execute our backlog and compete for new project awards, and we experience significant monthly fluctuations in our working capital. The primary uses of our liquidity for the remainder of 2021 and the foreseeable future are to fund:
|
• |
Overhead costs associated with the under-utilization of our facilities and resources within our Fabrication & Services Division, until we secure sufficient backlog to fully recover our overhead costs; |
|
• |
Capital expenditures; |
|
• |
Accrued contract losses (including accrued contract losses for the Retained Shipyard Contracts); |
|
• |
Working capital requirements for our projects, including the unwind of advance payments on projects (including advance payments for the Retained Shipyard Contracts); |
|
• |
Remaining liabilities of the Shipyard Division operations that were excluded from the Shipyard Transaction; |
|
• |
Legal and other costs associated with our MPSV dispute; |
|
• |
Corporate administrative expenses (including the temporary under-utilization of personnel as we evaluate our resource requirements to support our future operations in light of the Shipyard Transaction); and |
|
• |
Initiatives to diversify and enhance our business. |
- 40 -
We anticipate capital expenditures of $1.0 million to $2.0 million for the remainder of 2021. Further investments in facilities may be required to win and execute potential new project awards, which are not included in these estimates.
We believe that our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at June 30, 2021, will be sufficient to enable us to fund our operating expenses, meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements, and satisfy any debt service obligations or other funding requirements, for at least twelve months from the date of this Report. Our evaluation of the sufficiency of our cash and liquidity is primarily based on our financial forecast for 2021 and 2022, which is impacted by our existing backlog and estimates of future new project awards and may be further impacted by the ongoing effects of COVID-19 and volatile oil prices. We can provide no assurances that our financial forecast will be achieved or that we will have sufficient cash and short-term investments to meet planned operating expenses and other unforeseen cash requirements. Accordingly, we may be required to obtain new or additional credit facilities, sell additional assets or conduct equity or debt offerings at a time when it is not beneficial to do so.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information is communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Report.
During the second quarter 2021, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We are subject to various routine legal proceedings in the normal conduct of our business, primarily involving commercial disputes and claims, workers’ compensation claims, and claims for personal injury under general maritime laws of the U.S. and the Jones Act. While the outcome of these lawsuits, legal proceedings and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe that the outcome of any such proceedings, even if determined adversely, would not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. See Note 6 of our Financial Statements in Item 1 for further discussion of our material legal proceedings, including the MPSV dispute, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
There have been no material changes from the information included under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our 2020 Annual Report, except as disclosed in Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.
