Backlog should continue to rebound with recent low bids. High bidding activity portends additional awards. 2Q2021 backlog of $394 million rebounded from $365 million in 1Q2021 due to higher Marine backlog of $170 million and Concrete backlog of $224 million. Recent low bids pending awards exceed $40 million. More good news should be on the horizon and high bidding activity, including bids on several large multi-year projects, such as the NASA causeway in Florida, portends additional award announcements.


Updating 2021 EBITDA estimate following lingering weather impact.  We are lowering our 2021 EBITDA estimate to $31.4 million from $43.2 million to reflect the lingering impact of poor weather.

Staying positive on dry bulk market. Even though dry bulk TCE rates remain volatile, the bias has been upward due to firm demand from infrastructure projects and global stimulus programs. Also, the order book remains muted, and the January 2023 implementation of new carbon emission regulations (EEXI) could trigger slow steaming that effectively lowers supply. Operating leverage has expanded, and a $1.0k/day change in TCE rates has ~$16 million impact, or ~7% of our 2022 EBITDA estimate.


Increasing 2021 EBITDA estimate to $223 million based on TCE rates of $22.1k/day from $204 million and TCE rates of $20.8k/day.  Current TCE rates are above high 3Q2021 forward cover (Capes 66% booked at $31.3k/day and Ultras/Supras 75% booked at $25.3k/day) so positive bias to estimates. Six time charters in place, but visibility is limited beyond one quarter out …
