Insights
The reported financial results from Shimmick Corp. demonstrate a robust financial performance in the third quarter of 2023. A revenue of $175 million, with a net income of $35 million and an adjusted net income of $37 million, indicates a healthy profitability margin. The diluted earnings per common share of $1.58 and adjusted diluted earnings per common share of $1.67 reflect a strong earning capacity per unit of equity ownership.
The substantial year-over-year growth in gross margin by 260 basis points and the significant increases in adjusted net income by 70% and adjusted EBITDA by 63%, are indicative of effective cost management and operational efficiency. The backlog of $1.2 billion provides visibility into future revenue, suggesting a stable and potentially growing income stream.
Investors and stakeholders can view these results as a positive signal of Shimmick's market position and operational capabilities, particularly following its recent IPO. The ability to self-perform complex water projects and transition to higher margin projects may offer a competitive advantage in the water infrastructure sector.
The water infrastructure industry is characterized by long-term projects and contracts, which are often subject to economic, regulatory and environmental factors. Shimmick's focus on high-margin projects and its reported backlog suggests a strategic alignment with industry trends towards infrastructure renewal and sustainable water management.
For stakeholders, the strategic initiatives mentioned by the CEO indicate a forward-looking approach, which is vital for sustained growth in this sector. The recent IPO is likely to provide the necessary capital for expansion and could potentially lead to market share gains.
However, it is essential to consider the cyclical nature of the construction industry and the potential impact of economic downturns on infrastructure spending. While the current financials are strong, investors should also be aware of the risks associated with the sector, such as project delays, cost overruns and regulatory changes.
An analysis of Shimmick Corp.'s financial performance must take into account broader economic conditions. The strong financial results may be partly attributable to the current economic environment, which includes low-interest rates and public investment in infrastructure. These factors can increase the demand for water infrastructure projects and may have contributed to Shimmick's growth.
In the long term, the health of the economy and the continuation of favorable conditions are crucial for the sustainability of Shimmick's growth. The backlog serves as an economic indicator of future performance and sector confidence. However, macroeconomic shifts, such as changes in fiscal policy or shifts in the regulatory landscape, could influence Shimmick's business operations and financial outcomes.
It is also worth noting the impact of inflation on costs and the potential for increased competition as other companies seek to capitalize on infrastructure opportunities. These factors could affect profit margins and should be monitored by stakeholders.

EXPLANATORY NOTES
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Common Share
Adjusted net income represents net income attributable to Shimmick Corporation adjusted to eliminate changes in fair value of contingent consideration, IPO and transaction-related costs, stock-based compensation, and legal fees and other costs for a legacy loss job.
We have included adjusted net income in this press release because it is a key measure used by our management and Board to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget and to develop short and long-term operational plans. In particular, we believe that the exclusion of the income and expenses eliminated in calculating adjusted net income can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our core business. Accordingly, we believe that adjusted net income provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of operations.
Our use of adjusted net income as an analytical tool has limitations, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
- Adjusted net income does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs,
- Adjusted net income does not reflect the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation, and
- other companies, including companies in our industry, might calculate Adjusted net income or similarly titled measures differently, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures.
Because of these and other limitations, you should consider adjusted net income alongside Net income attributable to Shimmick Corporation, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings attributable to Shimmick Corporation before interest expense (income), income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation and amortization, adjusted to eliminate changes in fair value of contingent consideration, IPO and transaction-related costs, stock-based compensation, and legal fees and other costs for a legacy loss job.
We have included Adjusted EBITDA in this press release because it is a key measure used by our management and Board to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget and to develop short and long-term operational plans. In particular, we believe that the exclusion of the income and expenses eliminated in calculating Adjusted EBITDA can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our core business. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of operations.
Our use of Adjusted EBITDA as an analytical tool has limitations, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
- although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized might have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements,
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs,
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation,
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect interest or tax payments that would reduce the cash available to us, and
- other companies, including companies in our industry, might calculate Adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled measures differently, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures.
Because of these and other limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA alongside Net income attributable to Shimmick Corporation, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
