Insights
The financial performance of Shimmick Corp, as indicated by their revenue growth in the Shimmick Projects segment and a substantial backlog, suggests a positive outlook for the company's future. The 24% growth in project revenue is a strong indicator of the company's market presence and operational efficiency. However, the gross margin remaining flat at 7% raises questions about cost management and scalability. Investors should note the gross margin as a key indicator of profitability, especially in the capital-intensive construction industry.
The backlog growth is a critical metric as it represents future revenue and an 18% increase is significant. However, the negative diluted earnings per share (EPS) is a concern, as it may reflect underlying issues not immediately apparent in revenue growth figures. The shift in strategy towards higher margin, shorter duration projects could mitigate this over time. The company's guidance for 2024, with an expected increase in Shimmick Projects revenue and gross margin, indicates management's confidence in their strategic shift, but the projected decrease in Legacy Projects revenue with negative gross margin highlights ongoing challenges with past projects.
The construction sector is known for its cyclicality and project-based revenue streams. Shimmick Corp's focus on water infrastructure is strategic, given the aging infrastructure in many regions and the increasing public and private investment in this area. Their project win on the regional water reclamation expansion is a testament to their competitive positioning. However, the sector also faces challenges such as cost overruns and project delays, which are evident in the negative gross margin for the Legacy Projects.
Shimmick's strategy to wind down these Legacy Projects and ramp up new, higher-margin projects is a common approach to improving financial health in the industry. The company's ability to maintain an outstanding safety record also contributes to its reputation and operational efficiency, potentially reducing costs associated with workplace incidents. Nonetheless, the negative adjusted EBITDA movement is a red flag that should be monitored by stakeholders as it may indicate issues with operational effectiveness and profitability.
From a risk management perspective, Shimmick's initial public offering (IPO) in 2023 was a significant milestone that allowed them to raise capital, but it also increased their accountability to public investors. Their current financial strategy of focusing on higher quality, shorter duration projects is aimed at reducing risk and improving margins. This approach is important in an industry where project overruns can significantly impact financials.
The negative gross margin on Legacy Projects and the associated cost overruns are indicative of the risks inherent in large-scale construction projects. Shimmick's proactive steps in recognizing estimated costs to complete and expected losses on these projects demonstrate a transparent approach to risk assessment. The sale of non-core business contracts also suggests a strategic move to divest from less profitable or riskier segments and concentrate on core competencies.

(2) Legacy Projects are those projects assumed as part of the AECOM Sale Transactions, that were started under AECOM ownership.
Shimmick Projects
As a result of management's shift in job bidding strategy toward higher margin lower risk jobs and new jobs ramping up, total revenue recognized on these Shimmick Projects increased by
Legacy Projects
As part of the AECOM Sale Transactions, we assumed the Legacy Projects and backlog that were started under AECOM. Legacy Projects revenue decreased
The negative gross margin is primarily the result of a subset of these projects (“Legacy Loss Projects”) that have experienced significant cost overruns due to the COVID pandemic, design issues and other factors. On this subset, we have recognized the estimated cost to complete and the loss expected from these projects. As these Legacy Loss Projects continue to wind down to completion, no further gross margin will be recognized and in some cases, there may be additional costs associated with these jobs. Revenue recognized on these Legacy Loss Projects was
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures decreased
Gain on sale of assets increased

Fiscal Year 2024 Guidance
As a newly public company and given the sizeable ongoing impact of the Legacy Projects, we are introducing limited guidance for 2024 covering only revenue and gross margin.
For the full fiscal year ending December 27, 2024, we expect:
- Shimmick Projects revenue to grow 7 to 13 percent with gross margin between 7 to 13 percent
- Legacy Projects revenue to decrease by 45 to 55 percent with negative gross margin of 5 to 10 percent
“The guidance reflects our execution on our strategy, our robust pipeline, the improving quality of our backlog, and our continued operational execution as well as our efforts to work off our Legacy Projects. We believe that our results will be back-half weighted in 2024 with further strong momentum for growth in 2025,” concluded Richards.

EXPLANATORY NOTES
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted Net (loss) income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Common Share
Adjusted net (loss) income represents net income (loss) attributable to Shimmick Corporation adjusted to eliminate changes in fair value of contingent consideration, transaction-related costs, stock-based compensation, and legal fees and other costs for a legacy loss project.
We have included Adjusted net (loss) 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 (loss) income can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our core business. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted net (loss) income provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of operations.
Our use of Adjusted net (loss) 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 (loss) income does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs,
- Adjusted net (loss) income does not reflect the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation, and
- other companies, including companies in our industry, might calculate Adjusted net (loss) income or similarly titled measures differently, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures.
Because of these and other limitations, you should consider Adjusted net (loss) income alongside Net (loss) income attributable to Shimmick Corporation, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA represents our net (loss) income attributable to Shimmick Corporation before interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization, adjusted to eliminate changes in fair value of contingent consideration, transaction-related costs, stock-based compensation, and legal fees and other costs for a legacy loss project.
We have included Adjusted EBITDA in this press release because it is a key measure used by our management and board of directors 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 (loss) income attributable to Shimmick Corporation, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
