Shimmick Corporation Announces Second Quarter 2025 Results

IRVINE, Ca., Aug. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Shimmick Corp. (NASDAQ: SHIM), a leading infrastructure solutions provider in water, climate resilience, energy transition and sustainable transportation, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended July 4, 2025.

Second Quarter 2025 and Recent Highlights

• Reported revenue of $128 million, up 42% year over year, with $113 million coming from Shimmick Projects
• Reported gross margin of $8 million, as compared to gross margin of $(31) million during the second quarter of 2024, favorable 126% year over year
• Strong performance on Shimmick Projects contributed gross margin of $15 million, with Non-Core gross margin of $(7) million
• Reported selling, general and administrative expenses of $15 million, down 20% from the second quarter of 2024 as a result of the continued implementation of the Transformation Plan
• Recognized a net loss of $8 million and Adjusted EBITDA nearly flat at $(234) thousand, largely attributable to Non-Core Projects
• Reported liquidity of $73 million as of July 4, 2025, an increase of $2 million from first quarter of 2025
• Company launch of Axia Electric, a dedicated electrical subsidiary specializing in complex electrical and power distribution solutions; targeting growth segments including industrial, data center and advanced manufacturing in addition to core water/wastewater markets
• Backlog is approximately $652 million as of July 4, 2025, with over 88% Shimmick Projects, multiple new awards and contract extensions pending
• Project wins in target markets will contribute to third quarter 2025 backlog: 
  • $70 million in New Awards added to Backlog in July 2025
  • Selected as preferred bidder on $164 million on a Transit Center and River Pump Station

"We are continuing to implement our strategic plan and starting to see its positive results as we move through 2025. We have seen increased bidding activity every month this year and our 12-month bidding outlook stands at over $4.5 billion. Our recently announced project wins reflect the initial outcomes of our investments in estimating from earlier in the year. We expect to see strong backlog growth and improved margins over the upcoming quarters as we continue to develop our profitable core business in sustainable infrastructure with a focus on electrical work. While this backlog growth and operational improvements are occurring later in the year than we expected due to slower bidding activity related to previous macroeconomic uncertainties and challenges on remaining Non-Core Projects, we are encouraged by our progress so far and the rebound in the infrastructure market both with public and private clients," said Ural Yal, Chief Executive Officer of Shimmick.

(1) Shimmick Projects are those projects started after prior ownership that have focused on water, climate resilience, energy transition, and sustainable transportation.

(2) Projects that started under prior ownership or focus on foundation drilling are referred to as "Non-Core Projects" (formerly referred to as "Legacy and Foundations Projects"). The Company entered into an agreement to sell the assets of foundation drilling Non-Core Projects in the second quarter of 2024 and continued to wind down remaining work during the remainder of the 2024 fiscal year and six months ended July 4, 2025. As a result, revenue from foundation drilling Non-Core Projects will continue to decline during the remainder of the 2025 fiscal year.

Shimmick Projects

Projects started after the AECOM Sale Transaction ("Shimmick Projects") have focused on critical infrastructure aligned with our strategy, including water, climate resilience, energy transition and sustainable transportation.  Revenue recognized on Shimmick Projects was $113 million and $84 million for the three months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024, respectively. The $29 million increase in revenue was primarily the result of $18 million of revenue from a California Palisades fire clean-up project and $18 million of revenue from new water and infrastructure projects ramping up, partially offset by a $7 million decrease from lower activity on existing projects and projects winding down.  

Gross margin recognized on Shimmick Projects was $15 million and $5 million for the three months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024, respectively. The $10 million increase in the gross margin was primarily the result of $6 million in gross margin from new water and infrastructure projects ramping up and $4 million in gross margin from a California Palisades fire clean-up project.

Non-Core Projects

As part of the AECOM Sale Transaction, we acquired projects and backlog that were started under prior ownership (formerly referred to a "Legacy and Foundations Projects"). Separately, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the assets of our foundation drilling Non-Core Projects in the second quarter of 2024 and continued to wind down the remaining work which is largely completed.

Non-Core Projects revenue was $16 million and $7 million for the three months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024, respectively. The $9 million increase was primarily the result of the settlement of a claim on a large Non-Core Loss Project, which included a reduction to revenue during the three months ended June 28, 2024, which did not reoccur during the three months ended July 4, 2025.

Gross margin recognized on Non-Core Projects was $(7) million for the three months ended July 4, 2025 as compared to $(36) million for the three months ended June 28, 2024. The $29 million increase was primarily the result of the settlement of a claim discussed above, which included a reduction to revenue and did not reoccur during the three months ended July 4, 2025.

A subset of Non-Core Projects ("Non-Core Loss Projects") have experienced significant cost overruns due to the COVID pandemic, design issues, legal costs and other factors. In the Non-Core Loss Projects, we have recognized the estimated costs to complete and the loss expected from these projects. If the estimates of costs to complete fixed-price contracts indicate a further loss, the entire amount of the additional loss expected over the life of the project is recognized as a period cost in the cost of revenue. As these Non-Core 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 projects. Revenue recognized on these Non-Core Loss Projects was $13 million and $(7) million for the three months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024, respectively. Gross margin recognized on these Non-Core Loss Projects was $(3) million and $(32) million for the three months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024, respectively. The change in gross margin was primarily the result of the settlement of a claim discussed above, which included a reduction to revenue and which did not reoccur during the three months ended July 4, 2025.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $4 million primarily driven by the continued implementation of our Transformation Plan.

Equity in loss of unconsolidated joint ventures

Equity in loss of unconsolidated joint ventures decreased by $2 million during the three months ended July 4, 2025 primarily as the result of elevated costs due to schedule extensions experienced during the three months ended June 28, 2024 which did not reoccur during the three months ended July 4, 2025.

Gain on sale of assets

Gain on sale of assets decreased by $4 million during the three months ended July 4, 2025 primarily due to the gain recognized on the sale of the assets of foundation drilling Non-Core Projects during the second quarter of 2024.

Interest expense

Interest expense remained approximately flat period over period.

Other (income) expense, net

Other (income) expense, net increased by $2 million during the three months ended July 4, 2025 primarily as the result of a $1 million loss recognized on the settlement of certain claims with AECOM as well as other costs incurred during the three months ended June 28, 2024 which did not reoccur during the three months ended July 4, 2025.

Income tax expense

Due to an expected tax loss for the fiscal year ending 2025 and a realized tax loss for the fiscal year ended 2024, no income tax expense was recorded for either the three months ended July 4, 2025 or the three months ended June 28, 2024.

Net loss

Net loss decreased by $43 million to a net loss of $8 million for the three months ended July 4, 2025, primarily due to increase in gross margin of $39 million, decrease in salary, general and administrative expenses of $4 million, decrease in equity in loss of unconsolidated joint ventures of $2 million and increase in other (income) expense, net of $2 million, partially offset by decrease in the gain on the sale of assets of $4 million, all as described above.

Diluted loss per common share attributable to Shimmick Corporation was $(0.25) for the three months ended July 4, 2025, compared to diluted loss per common share of $(1.83) for the three months ended June 28, 2024.

Adjusted net loss was $(5) million for the three months ended July 4, 2025, compared to an adjusted net loss of $(45) million for the three months ended June 28, 2024.

Adjusted diluted loss per common share attributable to Shimmick Corporation was $(0.14) for the three months ended July 4, 2025, compared to $(1.60) for the three months ended June 28, 2024.

Adjusted EBITDA was $(0.2) million for the three months ended July 4, 2025, compared to $(40) million for the three months ended June 28, 2024.

Outlook and Guidance

"Due to stronger first-half revenue performance in both Shimmick and Non-Core Projects, we are increasing our full-year revenue guidance. Non-Core Projects revenue increase is driven by putting more non-core work in place due to increased efforts towards completing these projects. Shimmick Projects showed strong gross margins in the first half which we expect to continue into the second half, while Non-Core Projects' gross margin came in near the low end of guidance for the first half. While we expect higher revenue burn in both Shimmick Projects and Non-Core Projects for the full year, it creates an unfavorable gross margin mix impact as a result of the Non-Core revenue increase being a higher percentage of our total revenue for the year. We now expect Adjusted EBITDA for the full year of between $5 million and $15 million," said Todd Yoder, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.

We are updating our full year 2025 fiscal year guidance and now expect:

• Shimmick Projects revenue in the range of $405 million and $415 million, up from our initial guidance of $392 million to $410 million, with overall gross margin between 9% and 12%

• Non-Core Projects revenue in the range of $80 million and $90 million, up from our initial guidance of $50 million to $60 million, with overall gross margin between (15%) and (5%)

• Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA between $5 million and $15 million, down from our initial guidance of $15 million to $25 million

EXPLANATORY NOTES

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Common Share

Adjusted net loss represents Net loss attributable to Shimmick Corporation adjusted to eliminate stock-based compensation, legal fees and other costs for Non-Core Projects and other costs. We have also made an adjustment for transformation costs we have incurred including advisory costs in connection with settling outstanding claims, exiting the Non-Core Projects and transforming the Company to shift our strategy to meet the nation’s growing need for water and other critical infrastructure and grow our business.

We have included Adjusted net loss 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 net loss can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our core business. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted net loss provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of operations.

Our use of Adjusted net loss 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 does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs,
• Adjusted net loss does not reflect the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation, and
• other companies, including companies in our industry, might calculate Adjusted net loss or similarly titled measures differently, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures.
  
  
  
  

Because of these and other limitations, you should consider Adjusted net loss alongside Net loss attributable to Shimmick Corporation, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA represents our Net loss attributable to Shimmick Corporation before interest expense, income tax benefit and depreciation and amortization, adjusted to eliminate stock-based compensation, legal fees and other costs for Non-Core Projects and other costs. We have also made an adjustment for transformation costs we have incurred including advisory costs in connection with settling outstanding claims, exiting the Non-Core Projects and transforming the Company to shift our strategy to meet the nation’s growing need for water and other critical infrastructure and grow our business.

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 attributable to Shimmick Corporation, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
