Recent Dredging Awards. Great Lakes Dredge & Dock Corporation received several major dredging awards totaling $138.8 million. The awarded work includes coastal protection and maintenance work. There is still a lack of higher margin capital projects as the Army Corps of Engineers continues to be slow in making major capital project awards, in our view.

Trujillo Alto. The major award is Trujillo Alto Design and Build for the Lago Loiza (Carraízo) Dredging Project (Maintenance, Puerto Rico, $93.1 million). The project includes dredging in the reservoir area, preparation and construction of the work area, and storage and handling of materials. Work is expected to commence in the Spring of 2023 with estimated completion in the Spring of 2025.

Great Lakes Dredge & Dock (GLDD) – A Weak End to a Challenging Year

4Q22 Operating Results. Revenue totaled $146.7 million down from $210 million last year. Gross margin was negative 11%, down from 25.2% in the year ago period. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was a negative $24.2 million versus $48.2 million last year. The Company reported a loss of $31.2 million, or a loss of $0.47 per share for the quarter, compared to last year’s net income of $24.7 million, or $0.37 per diluted share.

Drivers. While management in late December had indicated fourth quarter results would be below previous expectations, the decline was even deeper than anticipated. The fourth quarter continued to be impacted by a significantly delayed bid market combined with high inflation, significant weather delays on projects in the Northeast, fewer high margin capital projects, dredging project production issues, higher than anticipated drydock costs, and the retirement of the Terrapin Island.

Investor Conference. Great Lakes CEO Lasse Petterson and CFO Scott Kornblau recently hosted an investor conference. While short on financials for the disappointing 2022 full year as results are not yet in, management did provide a pathway for improved performance in 2H23 and into 2024, with a longer term goal of exceeding the $150 million of EBITDA generated in 2020.

The Table Is Set. After a disappointing level of bid activity in 2022, the table appears to be overflowing for 2023. Record funding of $8.66 billion for the Army Corp of Engineers, an additional $1.48 billion under the Disaster Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act, and passage once again of the Water Resource Development Act should drive the 2023 bid cycle, including a significant number of high margin capital projects, Great Lakes’ specialty.

Lowered Expectations. Last week, Great Lakes provided an update for 4Q22, with revenue and gross margins expected to be below previous forecasts. Recall, management had previously expected revenue of $175-$185 million and gross profit margin (gpm) in the “high single digits” for 4Q22. We had estimated revenue of $175 million and a gpm of 6.9%.

Impacts. The quarter is being impacted by a number of items, including the early retirement of the Terrapin Island, unexpected drydocking scope increases for the Ellis Island and Padre Island, weather delays on several projects in the northeast, and some project production issues.

Fleet Renewal. Great Lakes announced the Galveston Island is in the water and is scheduled to be in operation in the first half of 2023. The Galveston Island provides Great Lakes with additional capacity and improved efficiencies. The new vessel will  have a positive impact on Great Lakes’ competitiveness in the coastal protection and maintenance markets as well as address the specific needs in the growing offshore wind market, in our view. Next step is to undergo sea trials, which we expect will happen shortly.

Introducing the Galveston Island. Originally announced in June 2020, the Galveston Island is a 6,500-cubic-yard-capacity Trailing Suction Hopper Dredge. The dredge will be equipped with a direct high-power pump-ashore installation, dredging system automation, dynamic positioning and tracking, U.S. EPA Tier IV compliant engines, and have capabilities of running on biofuel to minimize the environmental impact. Cost to build was around $100 million.

Release – Great Lakes Fleet Renewal Program on Schedule With The Launch Of The Galveston Island Last Week

Posted on by aweinsoff@channelchek.com

Research, News, and Market Data on GLDD

Dec 5, 2022

HOUSTON, Dec. 05, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Great Lakes Dredge & Dock Corporation (“Great Lakes” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: GLDD), the largest provider of dredging services in the United States, provided today an update on their fleet renewal program.

The Galveston Island, the first of two newbuild hopper dredges, is in the water and is scheduled to be in operation the first half of 2023 as planned. This new dredge is a 6,500-cubic-yard-capacity Trailing Suction Hopper Dredge which will support the modernization of Great Lakes’ dredging fleet. The dredge will be equipped with a direct high-power pump-ashore installation, dredging system automation, dynamic positioning and tracking, U.S. EPA Tier IV compliant engines, and have capabilities of running on biofuel to minimize the environmental impact. The Tier 4-compliant engines significantly reduce the vessel’s climate footprint, while other incorporated features minimize turbidity and marine species entrainment.

The upcoming delivery of the Galveston Island enables the Company to continue the rationalization of its older assets. During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company will retire the hopper dredge Terrapin Island, which has a 42-year working history. This vessel was planned for retirement upon the Galveston Island delivery, but based on her age the Company has decided to accelerate her retirement to significantly reduce its operating, labor and maintenance costs and improve productivity for the overall fleet. Work planned for the Terrapin Island will be delayed until another hopper dredge completes its regulatory drydock at the end of December.

The retirement of the Terrapin Island will result in a non-cash write-off of approximately $8 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.

The hopper fleet renewal program will be complete in 2025 with the delivery of the sister ship to the Galveston Island, at which time Great Lakes will have the largest and most modern hopper fleet in the US.

Lasse Petterson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Great Lakes commented, “After implementing our restructuring plan in 2017, we have invested in both productivity upgrades to our best performing vessels and executed on our new build program. This has provided us with additional capacity and improved efficiencies and will allow us to retire some of our older dredges and rationalize some of our older support equipment. These strategic moves will have a positive impact to our emissions footprint and our competitiveness in the coastal protection and maintenance markets as well as address the specific needs in the growing offshore wind market.”

3Q22 Operating Results Disappoint. Revenue totaled $158.3 million down from $168.6 million last year and below management’s guidance of $160-$170 million. Gross margin was a shocking 2.4%, down from 21.5% in the year ago period, and management’s lower teens guidance. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $1.3 million versus $32.2 million last year and our $21.8 million estimate. The Company reported a loss of $9.9 million, or a loss of $0.15 per share, for the quarter, compared to our estimate of net income of $5.4 million, or $0.08 per share, and last year’s net income of $13.8 million, or $0.21 per share.

What Happened? Lack of “book and burn” business resulted in much lower utilization, pull forward spending on maintenance expenditures taking advantage of the idle vessels, skyrocketing diesel prices impacting the 20% of diesel costs not hedged, and site conditions that remained worse than anticipated.
