HOUSTON, TX / ACCESSWIRE / November 8, 2022 / ENG (NASDAQ:ENG), a leading provider of innovative project delivery solutions for the energy industry, today reported revenue of $13.1 million for the third quarter ended September 24, 2022, a 121% increase on revenue of $5.9 million for the third quarter ended September 25, 2021.

The company's $7.2 million increase in third quarter revenue over last year was primarily due to progress of work on existing contracts and new awards within the Government Services segment and the award of several new projects within the Commercial segment.

The company reported a net loss of $2.3 million, or $(.07) per share, versus net income of $2.4 million, or $.07 per share, compared to the same period last year.

On a comparable basis, the company's bottom line performance improved by $1.7 million excluding the $6.4 million in Other Income from 2021, which consisted of $5.0 million for the forgiveness of a PPP loan and a $1.4 million employee retention credit.

Cash on hand at September 24, 2022 was $9.7 million.

"Once again we have seen impressive quarterly revenue growth," said CEO Mark A. Hess, "and our backlog has improved to $15.7 million compared to $8.4 million at the end of Q3 last year."

"The third quarter of 2022 also saw us improve gross profit margin by 19 percentage points, while also reducing our SG&A expenses by $0.2 million. These are all solid signs that our recovery is continuing, and that the key strategic initiatives we implemented last year are producing the desired results."

Mr. Hess stressed that these latest results do not yet include any significant contribution from ENG's new field service operations in the Permian Basin, construction services or the company's gas-to-liquids technology acquired earlier this year.

"We are confident that the steps we've taken to broaden the range of services offered to our clients will continue to fuel our growth and provide a steady pipeline of future work."

For the nine months ended September 24, 2022, the company had a net loss of $7.5 million, or $(.21) per share, on revenue of $31.8 million, compared with a net loss of $1.8 million, or $(.06) per share, on revenue of $29.4 million for the nine months ended September 25, 2021.

Last year's reported net loss of $1.8 million included $8.0 million in Other Income which consisted of $5.0 million for the forgiveness of a PPP loan and $3.0 million of employee retention credits. The company's $2.3 million improvement in Operating Loss from $9.6 million to $7.3 million was primarily due to increased utilization of personnel and a bad debt write off of $1.4 million with no comparable occurrence in 2022.

ENG's $2.3 million increase in nine-month revenue compared to the same period last year was primarily due to the progress of work on existing contracts and new awards within the Government Services segment and new awards within the Commercial segment.
