Performance Obligations

To determine the proper revenue recognition method, the Company evaluates whether two or more contracts should be combined and accounted for as one single contract and whether the combined or single contract should be accounted for as more than one performance obligation. The majority of the Company's contracts have a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the individual goods or services that is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts and therefore, is not distinct.

The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied as work progresses or at a point in time. Revenue on the Company's cost-reimbursable contracts is recognized over time using direct costs incurred or direct costs incurred to date as compared to the estimated total direct costs for performance obligations because it depicts the transfer of control to the customer. Contract costs include labor, sub-consultant services, and other direct costs.

Gross revenue from services transferred to customers at a point in time is recognized when the customer obtains control of the asset, which is generally upon delivery and acceptance by the customer of the reports and/or analysis performed.

As of ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023, the Company had ~~$805,397~~$853,829 of remaining performance obligations, of which ~~$656,268~~$694,544 is expected to be recognized over the next 12 months and the majority of the balance over the next 24 months. Contracts for which work authorizations have been received are included in performance obligations. Performance obligations include only those amounts that have been funded and authorized and does not reflect the full amounts the Company may receive over the term of such contracts. In the case of non-government contracts and project awards, performance obligations include future revenue at contract or customary rates, excluding contract renewals or extensions that are at the discretion of the client. For contracts with a not-to-exceed maximum amount, the Company includes revenue from such contracts in performance obligations to the extent of the remaining estimated amount.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed receivables, unbilled receivables (contract assets), and billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts (contract liabilities) on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The liability “Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts” represents billings in excess of revenues recognized on these contracts as of the reporting date. This liability is generally classified as current. During the three and nine months ended ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023 the Company performed services and recognized ~~$18,430~~$1,793 and $26,840, respectively, of revenue related to its contract liabilities that existed as of December 31, 2022.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill is the excess of consideration paid for an acquired entity over the amounts assigned to assets acquired, including other identifiable intangible assets and liabilities assumed in a business combination. To determine the amount of goodwill resulting from a business combination, the Company performs an assessment to determine the acquisition date fair value of the acquired company’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities.

Goodwill is required to be evaluated for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the asset may be impaired. An entity has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. These qualitative factors include macroeconomic and industry conditions, cost factors, overall financial performance, and other relevant entity-specific events. If the entity determines that this threshold is met, then the Company applies a one-step quantitative test and record the amount of goodwill impairment as the excess of a reporting unit's carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The Company determines fair value through multiple valuation techniques, and weights the results accordingly. Subjective and complex judgments are required in assessing whether an event of impairment of goodwill has occurred, including assumptions and estimates used to determine the fair value of its reporting units. The Company has elected to perform its annual goodwill impairment review as of August 1 of each year. The Company conducts its annual impairment tests on the goodwill using the quantitative method of evaluating goodwill.

(UNAUDITED)

(in thousands, except share data)

As of August 1, ~~2022,~~2023, the Company conducted its annual impairment tests using the quantitative method of evaluating goodwill. Based on the quantitative analyses the Company determined the fair value of each of the reporting units exceeded its carrying value. Therefore, the goodwill was not impaired and the Company did not recognize an impairment charge relating to goodwill as of August 1, ~~2022.~~2023. Furthermore, there were no indicators, events or changes in circumstances that would indicate goodwill was impaired during the period from August 2, ~~2022~~2023 through ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023.

Identifiable intangible assets primarily include customer backlog, customer relationships, trade names, non-compete agreements, and developed technology. Amortizable intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives and reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired. If an indicator of impairment exists, the Company compares the estimated future cash flows of the asset, on an undiscounted basis, to the carrying value of the asset. If the undiscounted cash flows exceed the carrying value, no impairment is indicated. If the undiscounted cash flows do not exceed the carrying value, then impairment, if any, is measured as the difference between fair value and carrying value, with fair value typically based on a discounted cash flow model. There were no indicators, events or changes in circumstances that would indicate intangible assets were impaired during the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023. See Note 8, Goodwill and Intangible Assets, for further information on goodwill and identified intangibles.

There have been no material changes in the Company's significant accounting policies described in the audited financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Note 3 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

~~None~~None.

Note 4 – Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding unvested restricted shares. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company. The effect of potentially dilutive securities is not considered during periods of loss or if the effect is anti-dilutive.

The weighted average number of shares outstanding in calculating basic earnings per share for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023 and ~~April 2,~~October 1, 2022 exclude ~~705,953~~687,716 and ~~743,496~~760,050 non-vested restricted shares, respectively. During the three and nine months ended ~~April~~September 30, 2023, there were 22,365 and 31,886 weighted average securities, respectively, which are not included in the calculation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding because their impact is anti-dilutive or their performance conditions have not been met. During the three and nine months ended October 1, ~~2023 and April 2,~~ 2022, there were ~~34,633~~36,794 and ~~31,439~~25,282 weighted average securities, respectively, which are not included in the calculation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding because their impact is anti-dilutive or their performance conditions have not been met.

Senior Credit Facility

On August 13, 2021 (the "Closing Date"), the Company amended and restated its Credit Agreement (the "Second A&R Credit Agreement" or "Senior Credit Facility"), originally dated December 7, 2016 and as amended to the Closing Date, with Bank of America, N.A. ("Bank of America"), as administrative agent, swingline lender and letter of credit issuer, the other lenders party thereto, and certain of the Company's subsidiaries as guarantors. Pursuant to the Second A&R Credit Agreement, the previously drawn term commitments of $150,000 and revolving commitments totaling $215,000 in the aggregate were converted into revolving commitments totaling $400,000 in the aggregate. These revolving commitments are available through August 13, 2026 (the "Maturity Date") and an aggregate amount of approximately $138,750 was drawn under the Second A&R Credit Amendment on the Closing Date to repay previously existing borrowings under the term and revolving facilities prior to such amendment and restatement. Borrowings under the Second A&R Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company. The Second A&R Credit Agreement also includes an accordion feature permitting the Company to request an increase in the revolving facility under the Second A&R Credit Agreement by an additional amount of up to $200,000 in the aggregate. As of ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the outstanding balance on the Second A&R Credit Agreement was ~~$143,750~~$206,750 and $33,750, respectively.

The Company's Second A&R Credit Agreement provides for the replacement of LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate), which prior to April 1, 2023, was transitioned to SOFR (Secured Overnight Funding Rate), subject to the completion of the relevant existing interest period ("LIBOR Transition"). Borrowings under the Second A&R Credit Agreement bear interest at variable rates which are, at the Company's option, tied to a Eurocurrency rate equal to LIBOR or, from and after the LIBOR

Transition, either Term SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR, plus in each case an applicable margin or a base rate denominated in U.S. dollars. Interest rates remain subject to change based on the Company's consolidated leverage ratio. As of ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023, the Company's interest rate was ~~5.8%~~6.7%.

The Second A&R Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that require NV5 Global to maintain a consolidated net leverage ratio (the ratio of the Company's pro forma consolidated net funded indebtedness to the Company's pro forma consolidated EBITDA for the most recently completed measurement period) of no greater than 4.00 to 1.00.

These financial covenants also require the Company to maintain a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of no less than 1.10 to 1.00 as of the end of any measurement period. As of ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants.

The Second A&R Credit Agreement contains covenants that may have the effect of limiting the Company's ability to, among other things, merge with or acquire other entities, enter into a transaction resulting in a Change in Control, create certain new liens, incur certain additional indebtedness, engage in certain transactions with affiliates, or engage in new lines of business

or sell a substantial part of their assets. The Second A&R Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default, including (but not limited to) a default in the payment of principal or, following an applicable grace period, interest, breaches of the Company's covenants or warranties under the Second A&R Credit Agreement, payment default or acceleration of certain indebtedness, certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation, certain judgments or uninsured losses, changes in control and certain liabilities related to ERISA based plans.

The Second A&R Credit Agreement limits the payment of cash dividends (together with certain other payments that would constitute a "Restricted Payment" within the meaning of the Second A&R Credit Agreement and generally including dividends, stock repurchases and certain other payments in respect to warrants, options, and other rights to acquire equity securities), unless the Consolidated Leverage Ratio would be less than 3.25 to 1.00 and available liquidity (defined as unrestricted, domestically held cash plus revolver availability) would be at least $30,000, in each case after giving effect to such payment.

Total debt issuance costs incurred and capitalized in connection with the issuance of the Second A&R Credit Agreement were $3,702. Total amortization of debt issuance costs was ~~$194~~$208 and ~~$185~~$573 during the three and nine months ended ~~April~~September 30, 2023, respectively, and $185 and $556 during the three and nine months ended October 1, ~~2023 and April 2,~~ 2022, respectively.

Other Obligations

Note 12 – Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation, Claims and Assessments

The Company is subject to certain claims and lawsuits typically filed against the engineering, consulting and construction profession, alleging primarily professional errors or omissions. The Company carries professional liability insurance, subject to certain deductibles and policy limits, against such claims. However, in some actions, parties are seeking damages that exceed our insurance coverage or for which we are not insured. While management does not believe that the resolution of these claims will have a material adverse effect, individually or in aggregate, on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows, management acknowledges the uncertainty surrounding the ultimate resolution of these matters.

Note 13 – Stock-Based Compensation

In October 2011, the Company's stockholders approved the NV5 Global, Inc. 2011 Equity Incentive Plan, which was subsequently amended and restated in March 2013 (as amended, the “2011 Equity Plan”). The 2011 Equity Incentive Plan expired pursuant to its terms in March 2023, accordingly no further grants were made following the date of such expiration. Prior to such

expiration, the Company's Board adopted the NV5 Global, Inc. 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2023 Equity Plan") to replace the 2011 Equity Plan, subject to stockholder approval. On June 13, 2023, the Company's stockholders approved the 2023 Equity Plan. The 2023 Equity Plan provides directors, executive officers, and other employees of the Company with additional incentives by allowing them to acquire ownership interest in the business and, as a result, encouraging them to contribute to the Company’s success. The Company may provide these incentives through the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and units, and other cash-based or stock-based awards. As of ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023, ~~1,931,726~~2,148,768 shares of common stock are authorized, reserved, and ~~reserved~~registered for issuance under the ~~2011~~2023 Equity Plan. This reserve automatically increases on each January 1 from 2014 through 2023, by an amount equal to the smaller of (i) 3.5% of the number of shares issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31, or (ii) an amount determined by the Company's Board of Directors. The restricted shares of common stock granted generally provide for service-based cliff vesting after two to four years following the grant date.

The 2011 Equity Incentive Plan expired pursuant to its terms in March 2023, accordingly no further grants were made following the date of such expiration. Prior to such expiration, the Company's Board adopted the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2023 Equity Plan") to replace the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan, subject to stockholder approval in June 2023, and authorized the issuance of 2,328,504 shares of the Company's common stock in connection with awards pursuant to the 2023 Equity Plan.

~~The~~ following summarizes the activity of restricted stock awards during the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023:


		Number of Unvested Restricted Shares of Common Stock and Restricted Stock Units	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value			Number of Unvested Restricted Shares of Common Stock and Restricted Stock Units	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value

Stock-based compensation expense relating to restricted stock awards during the three and nine months ended ~~April~~September 30, 2023 was $5,777 and $16,504, respectively, and $5,634 and $15,249 during the three and nine months ended October 1, ~~2023 and April 2,~~ 2022, ~~was $5,826 and $4,789,~~ respectively. In connection with the Company's 401(k) Profit Sharing match, stock-based compensation expense during the three and nine months ended ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023 includes ~~$614~~$318 and $1,473, respectively, of expense related to the Company's liability-classified awards. Stock-based compensation expense during the three and nine months ended October 1, 2022 includes $283 and $937, respectively, of expense related to the Company's liability-classified awards. The total estimated amount of the liability-classified awards for fiscal 2023 is approximately ~~$5,747.~~$5,314. The 401(k) Profit Sharing restricted stock awards are issued under the rules of the NV5 Global, Inc. 2023 Equity Incentive Plan and are not issued into the NV5 401(k) Profit Sharing plan. Approximately ~~$30,937~~$41,103 of deferred compensation, which is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period of ~~1.2~~1.67 years, is unrecognized at ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023. The total fair value of restricted shares vested during the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023 and ~~April 2,~~October 1, 2022 was ~~$1,685~~$29,235 and ~~$1,376,~~$14,624, respectively.

Note 14 – Income Taxes

As of ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had net deferred income tax liabilities of ~~$16,853~~$5,797 and $6,893, respectively. Deferred income tax liabilities primarily relate to intangible assets and accounting basis adjustments where we have a future obligation for tax purposes.

The Company's effective income tax rate was ~~19.7%~~(19.0)% and ~~25.8%~~2.0% during the three and nine months ended ~~April~~September 30, 2023, respectively, and 7.3% and 17.2% during the three and nine months ended October 1, ~~2023 and April 2,~~ 2022, respectively. The difference between the effective income tax rate and the combined statutory federal and state income tax rate ~~in both periods~~ was primarily due to an increase in federal credits recorded in the third quarter of 2023 and 2022, including additional prior year credits, and the recognition of excess tax ~~credits.~~benefits from stock-based payments in the second and third quarter of 2023 and 2022.

The Company evaluates tax positions for recognition using a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, and those tax positions eligible for recognition are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon the effective settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. Fiscal years 2019 through 2022 are considered open tax years in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, state and foreign jurisdictions. Fiscal years 2012 - 2014 are considered open in the State of California. It is not expected that there will be a significant change in the unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.

This Quarterly Report contains, in addition to unaudited historical information, forward-looking statements, which involve risk and uncertainties. The words “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “plan,” or “continue,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from ~~the results~~ those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences in results and outcomes include, those discussed under the headings “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, if any. Readers are urged not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We undertake no obligation to (and we expressly disclaim any obligation to) revise or update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, subsequent events, or otherwise (except as may be required by law), in order to reflect any event or circumstance which may arise after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Amounts presented are in thousands, except per share data.

Recent Acquisitions

On ~~February 22,~~April 6, 2023, ~~(the "Closing Date"),~~ we acquired all of the outstanding equity interests in ~~Continental Mapping Acquisition Corp.~~the Visual Information Solutions commercial geospatial technology and ~~Continental Mapping Holdings, LLC and its subsidiaries, including Axim Geospatial, LLC (collectively "Axim"~~software business ("VIS"), from L3Harris. VIS is a provider of ~~comprehensive geospatial services~~subscription-based software solutions for the analysis and ~~solutions addressing critical mission requirements~~management of software applications and Analytics as a Service (AaaS) solutions. We acquired VIS for ~~customers across the defense and intelligence and state and local government sectors. The aggregate~~a cash purchase price of ~~the acquisition was $141,010, including $120,106 in cash, a $7,404 promissory note, and $13,500 of our common stock.~~$75,371. The purchase price and other related costs associated with the transaction were financed through our amended and restated credit agreement (the "Second A&R Credit Agreement" or "Senior Credit Facility") with Bank of America, N.A. and other lenders party thereto. See Note 10, Notes Payable and Other Obligations, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere herein for further detail on the Second A&R Credit Agreement. In order to determine the fair values of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, we engaged an independent third-party valuation specialist to assist in the determination of fair values. The final determination of the fair value of assets and liabilities will be completed within the one-year measurement period as required by ASC 805. The acquisition will necessitate the use of this measurement period to adequately analyze and assess the factors used in establishing the asset and liability fair values as of the relevant acquisition date, including intangible assets, accounts receivable, certain fixed assets, deferred tax liabilities, and the fair value of other assets and liabilities acquired.

On February 22, 2023, we acquired all of the outstanding equity interests in Continental Mapping Acquisition Corp. and its subsidiaries, including Axim Geospatial, LLC (collectively "Axim"), a provider of comprehensive geospatial services and solutions addressing critical mission requirements for customers across the defense and intelligence and state and local government sectors. The aggregate purchase price of the acquisition was $139,562, including $119,736 in cash, a $6,326 promissory note, and $13,500 of our common stock. The purchase price and other related costs associated with the transaction were financed through our Second A&R Credit Agreement with Bank of America, N.A. and other lenders party thereto. See Note 10, Notes Payable and Other Obligations, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere herein for further detail on the Second A&R Credit Agreement. In order to determine the fair values of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, we engaged an independent third-party valuation specialist to assist in the determination of fair values. The final determination of the fair value of assets and liabilities will be completed within the one-year measurement period as required by ASC 805. The acquisition will necessitate the use of this measurement period to adequately analyze and assess the factors used in establishing the asset and liability fair values as of the relevant acquisition date, including intangible assets, accounts receivable, certain fixed assets, deferred tax liabilities, and the fair value of other assets and liabilities acquired.

We have completed ~~three~~four other acquisitions during 2023. The aggregate purchase price of the ~~three~~four acquisitions was ~~$3,315,~~$7,725, including ~~$2,900~~$6,900 in cash, ~~$90~~$500 of our common stock, and a potential earn-out of up to $340 payable in cash and common stock, which was recorded at an estimated fair value of $325. AnA probability-weighted approach was used to determine the fair value of the earn-out, which is a generally accepted valuation technique that embodies all significant assumption types. The final determination of the fair value of assets and liabilities will be completed within the one-year measurement period as required by ASC 805. The 2023 acquisitions will necessitate the use of this measurement period to adequately analyze and assess the factors used in establishing the asset and liability fair values as of the relevant acquisition date, including intangible assets, accounts receivable, and ~~accounts receivable.~~

deferred tax liabilities.

Our effective income tax rate was 2.0% and 17.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and October 1, 2022, respectively. The decrease in the effective income tax rate was primarily the result of an increase in net federal tax credits of $3,869 and an increase in excess tax benefits from stock-based payments of $1,693 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Net income

Our net income decreased $7,297, or 17.4%, for nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to nine months ended October 1, 2022. The decrease was primarily a result of increases in payroll costs of $25,164, amortization expenses of $7,560, interest expense of $6,307, and general and administrative expenses of $2,117, partially offset by an increase in gross profit of $28,741 and a lower effective income tax rate.

The decrease in gross revenues was primarily due to decreases in our real estate transactional services of $20,413 driven by market reactions to increases in interest rates.

The increase was primarily due to increased gross revenues.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash and cash equivalents balances, cash flows from operations, borrowing capacity under our Senior Credit Facility, and access to financial markets. Our principal uses of cash are operating expenses, working capital requirements, capital expenditures, repayment of debt, and acquisition expenditures. We believe our sources of liquidity, including cash flows from operations, existing cash and cash equivalents and borrowing capacity under our Senior Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet our projected cash requirements for at least the next twelve months. We will monitor our capital requirements thereafter to ensure our needs are in line with available capital resources and believe that there are no significant cash requirements currently known to us and affecting our business that cannot be met from our reasonably expected future operating cash flows, including upon the maturity of the Senior Credit Facility in 2026.

Operating activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was ~~$11,282~~$45,435 for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023, compared to ~~$46,516~~$80,391 during the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~April 2,~~October 1, 2022. The decrease was a result of decreases in net income and increases in working capital. The changes in our working capital that contributed to decreased cash flows from operations were primarily a result of increases in billed receivables of ~~$13,651, increases in~~$19,645 and unbilled receivables of ~~$16,041, and decreases~~$15,809, partially offset by increases in accounts payable of ~~$8,030, partially offset by an increase~~$11,783 and decreases in ~~advanced billings~~prepaid expenses and other assets of ~~$9,010.~~$10,049. The increases in billed and unbilled receivables was primarily due to timing of project billing ~~cycles, and the decrease~~cycles. The increase in accounts ~~payables~~payable primarily related to timing of ~~payments.~~payments, and the decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets resulted from a $9,536 decrease in prepaid income taxes.

Investing activities

During the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023 and ~~April 2,~~October 1, 2022, net cash used in investing activities totaled ~~$123,697~~$203,071 and ~~$6,370,~~$19,807, respectively. The increase in cash used in investing activities was primarily a result of increased cash paid for acquisitions of ~~$117,261.~~$184,089.

Financing activities

Net cash flows provided by financing activities totaled ~~$105,215~~$165,727 during the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023 compared to net cash flows used in financing activities of ~~$6,178~~$54,393 during the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~April 2,~~October 1, 2022. The increase in cash

provided by financing activities was primarily a result of borrowings on our Senior Credit Facility of ~~$110,000~~$188,000 during the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023 and a decrease in principal payments on our Senior Credit Facility of $30,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Financing

Senior Credit Facility

On August 13, 2021 (the "Closing Date"), we amended and restated our Credit Agreement (the "Second A&R Credit Agreement" or "Senior Credit Facility"), originally dated December 7, 2016 and as amended to the Closing Date, with Bank of America, N.A. ("Bank of America"), as administrative agent, swingline lender and letter of credit issuer, the other lenders party thereto, and certain of our subsidiaries as guarantors. Pursuant to the Second A&R Credit Agreement, the previously drawn term commitments of $150,000 and revolving commitments totaling $215,000 in the aggregate were converted into revolving commitments totaling $400,000 in the aggregate. These revolving commitments are available through August 13, 2026 (the "Maturity Date") and an aggregate amount of approximately $138,750 was drawn under the Second A&R Credit Amendment on the Closing Date to repay previously existing borrowings under the term and revolving facilities prior to such amendment and restatement. Borrowings under the Second A&R Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of our assets. The Second A&R Credit Agreement also includes an accordion feature permitting us to request an increase in the revolving facility under the Second A&R Credit Agreement by an additional amount of up to $200,000 in the aggregate. As of ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the outstanding balance on the Second A&R Credit Agreement was ~~$143,750~~$206,750 and $33,750, respectively.

Our Second A&R Credit Agreement provides for the replacement of LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate), which prior to April 1, 2023, was transitioned to SOFR (Secured Overnight Funding Rate), subject to the completion of the relevant existing interest period ("LIBOR Transition"). Borrowings under the Second A&R Credit Agreement bear interest at variable rates which are, at our option, tied to a Eurocurrency rate equal to LIBOR or, from and after the LIBOR Transition, either Term SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR, plus in each case an applicable margin, or a base rate denominated in U.S. dollars. Interest rates remain subject to change based on our consolidated leverage ratio. As of ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023 our interest rate was ~~5.8%~~6.7%.

The Second A&R Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that require us to maintain a consolidated net leverage ratio (the ratio of our pro forma consolidated net funded indebtedness to our pro forma consolidated EBITDA for the most recently completed measurement period) of no greater than 4.00 to 1.00.

These financial covenants also require us to maintain a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of no less than 1.10 to 1.00 as of the end of any measurement period. As of ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023, we were in compliance with the financial covenants.

The Second A&R Credit Agreement contains covenants that may have the effect of limiting our ability to, among other things, merge with or acquire other entities, enter into a transaction resulting in a Change in Control, create certain new liens, incur certain additional indebtedness, engage in certain transactions with affiliates, or engage in new lines of business, or sell a substantial part of their assets. The Second A&R Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default, including (but not limited to) a default in the payment of principal or, following an applicable grace period, interest, breaches of our covenants or warranties under the Second A&R Credit Agreement, payment default or acceleration of certain indebtedness, certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation, certain judgments or uninsured losses, changes in control, and certain liabilities related to ERISA based plans.

The Second A&R Credit Agreement limits the payment of cash dividends (together with certain other payments that would constitute a "Restricted Payment" within the meaning of the Second A&R Credit Agreement and generally including dividends, stock repurchases, and certain other payments in respect to warrants, options, and other rights to acquire equity securities), unless the Consolidated Leverage Ratio would be less than 3.25 to 1.00 and available liquidity (defined as unrestricted, domestically held cash plus revolver availability) would be at least $30,000, in each case after giving effect to such payment.

Other Obligations

We have aggregate obligations related to acquisitions of ~~$8,303, $6,960, $3,962,~~$7,338, $5,394, $3,892, and ~~$3,875.~~$4,010 due in the remainder of fiscal 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026, respectively. As of ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023, our weighted average interest rate on other outstanding obligations was ~~3.1%~~3.0%.

Cautionary Statement about Forward-Looking Statements

Our disclosure and analysis in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, contain “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. From time to time, we also provide forward-looking statements in other materials we release to the public, as well as oral forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our “expectations,” “hopes,” “beliefs,” “intentions,” or “strategies” regarding the future. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts, or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. We have tried, wherever possible, to identify such statements by using words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project,” “may,” “might,” “should,” “would,” “will,” “likely,” “will likely result,” “continue,” “could,” “future,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “target,” “forecast,” “goal,” “observe,” “seek,” “strategy” and other words and terms of similar meaning, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward looking. The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflect the Company’s current views with respect to future events and financial performance.

Forward-looking statements are not historical factors and should not be read as a guarantee or assurance of future performance or results, and will not necessarily be accurate indications of the times at, or by, or if such performance or results will be achieved. Forward-looking statements are based on information available at the time those statements are made or management’s good faith beliefs, expectations and assumptions as of that time with respect to future events. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to:

•our ability to retain the continued service of our key professionals and to identify, hire and retain additional qualified professionals,

•changes in demand from the local and state government and private clients that we serve,

•any material outbreak or material escalation of international hostilities, including developments in the conflict involving Israel and Hamas or Russia and the Ukraine and the economic consequences of related events such as the imposition of economic sanctions and resulting market volatility,

•changes in general domestic and international economic conditions such as inflation rates, interest rates, tax rates, higher labor and healthcare costs, recessions, and changing government policies, laws and regulations,

•the U.S. government and other governmental and quasi-governmental budgetary and funding approval process,

•the ongoing effects of the global COVID-19 pandemic,

•our ability to successfully execute our mergers and acquisitions strategy, including the integration of new companies into our business,

•the possibility that our contracts may be terminated by our clients,

•our ability to win new contracts and renew existing contracts,

•competitive pressures and trends in our industry and our ability to successfully compete with our competitors,

•our dependence on a limited number of clients,

•our ability to complete projects timely, in accordance with our customers’ expectations, or profitability,

•our ability to successfully manage our growth strategy,

•our ability to raise capital in the future,

•the credit and collection risks associated with our clients,

•our ability to comply with procurement laws and regulations,

•weather conditions and seasonal revenue fluctuations may adversely impact our financial results,

•the enactment of legislation that could limit the ability of local, state and federal agencies to contract for our privatized services,

•our ability to complete our backlog of uncompleted projects as currently projected,

•the risk of employee misconduct or our failure to comply with laws and regulations,

•our ability to control, and operational issues pertaining to, business activities that we conduct with business partners and other third parties,

•our need to comply with a number of restrictive covenants and similar provisions in our senior credit facility that generally limit our ability to (among other things) incur additional indebtedness, create liens, make acquisitions, pay dividends and undergo certain changes in control, which could affect our ability to finance future operations, acquisitions or capital needs,

•significant influence by our principal stockholder and the existence of certain anti-takeover measures in our governing documents, and

•other factors identified throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including those discussed under the headings “Risk Factors,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and “Business.”

The forward-looking statements contained in this report are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties, or assumptions, many of which are beyond our control, which may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, those factors described in Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws. You are advised, however, to consult any further disclosures we make on related subjects in our Form 10-Q, 8-K and 10-K reports filed with the SEC. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K filing for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 listed various important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected and historic results. We note these factors for investors as permitted by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. Readers can find them in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of that filing and under the same heading of this filing. You may obtain a copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K through our website, www.nv5.com. Information contained on our website is not incorporated into this report. In addition to visiting our website, you may read and copy any document we file with the SEC at www.sec.gov.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

We are exposed to certain market risks from transactions that are entered into during the normal course of business. We have not entered into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. We have no significant market risk exposure to interest rate changes related to the promissory notes related to acquisitions since these contain fixed interest rates. Our only debt subject to interest rate risk is the Senior Credit Facility which rates are variable, at our option, tied to a Eurocurrency rate equal to LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate) or, from and after the LIBOR Transition, either Term SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR, plus in each case an applicable rate or a base rate denominated in U.S. dollars. Interest rates are subject to change based on our Consolidated Senior Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement). As of ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023, there was ~~$143,750~~$206,750 outstanding on the Senior Credit Facility. A one percentage point change in the assumed interest rate of the Senior Credit Facility would change our annual interest expense by approximately ~~$1,438~~$2,068 annually.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as

such term is defined in rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, in a manner that allows timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) that occurred during the quarter ended ~~April 1,~~September 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

From time to time, we are subject to various legal proceedings that arise in the normal course of our business activities. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we are not a party to any litigation the outcome of which, if determined adversely to us, would individually or in the aggregate be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

There have been no material changes to any of the principal risks that we believe are material to our business, results of operations and financial condition, from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
