INFRASTRUCTURE AND ENERGY ALTERNATIVES, INC.
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)

Note 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Organization and Reportable Segments

    Infrastructure and Energy Alternatives, Inc., a Delaware corporation, is a holding company organized on August 4, 2015 (together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, “IEA” or the “Company”). On March 26, 2018, we became a public company by consummating a merger (the “Merger”) pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated November 3, 2017, with M III Acquisition Corporation (“M III”).

We segregate our business into 2 reportable segments: the Renewables segment and the Heavy Civil and Industrial (“Specialty Civil”) segment. See Note 10. Segments for a description of the reportable segments and their operations.

Principles of Consolidation

    The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Pursuant to these rules and regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted.

    The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of IEA and its wholly-owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries. The Company occasionally forms joint ventures with unrelated third parties for the execution of single contracts or projects. The Company assesses its joint ventures to determine if they meet the qualifications of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810, Consolidation. For construction joint ventures that are not VIEs or fully consolidated but for which the Company has significant influence, the Company accounts for its interest in the joint ventures using the proportionate consolidation method, see Note 11. Joint Ventures.
In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that are necessary to present fairly the results of operations for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Basis of Accounting and Use of Estimates
    
    The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Key estimates include: the recognition of revenue and project profit or loss; fair value estimates; valuations of goodwill and intangible assets; asset lives used in computing depreciation and amortization; accrued self-insured claims; other reserves and accruals; accounting for income taxes; and the estimated impact of contingencies and ongoing litigation. While management believes that its estimates are reasonable when considered in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

The prior period classification of the warrant liability fair value adjustment has been revised to conform to the current period presentation within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. This reclassification has no effect on net income or stockholders' equity.

Revenue Recognition
    The Company derives revenue primarily from construction projects performed under contracts for specific projects requiring the construction and installation of an entire infrastructure system or specified units within an infrastructure system. Contracts contain multiple pricing options, such as fixed price, time and materials, or unit price. Generally, renewable energy projects are performed for private customers while Specialty Civil projects are performed for various governmental entities.

    Revenue derived from projects billed on a fixed-price basis totaled 99.3%99.5% and 98.0%98.4% of consolidated revenue from operations for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and totaled 98.3%98.8% and 97.2%97.6% for the sixnine months
6


ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Revenue and related costs for contracts billed on a time and materials basis are recognized as the services are rendered. Revenue derived from projects billed on a time and materials basis totaled 0.7%0.5% and 2.0%1.6% of consolidated revenue from operations for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and totaled 1.7%1.2% and 2.8%2.4% for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

    Construction contract revenue is recognized over time using the cost-to-cost measure of progress for fixed price contracts. The cost-to-cost measure of progress best depicts the continuous transfer of control of goods or services to the customer. The contractual terms provide that the customer compensates the Company for services rendered.

    Contract costs include all direct materials, labor and subcontracted costs, as well as indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs and the costs of capital equipment. The cost estimation and review process for recognizing revenue over time under the cost-to-cost method is based on the professional knowledge and experience of the Company’s project managers, engineers and financial professionals. Management reviews estimates of total contract transaction price and total project costs on an ongoing basis. Changes in job performance, job conditions and management’s assessment of expected variable consideration are factors that influence estimates of the total contract transaction price, total costs to complete those contracts and profit recognition. Changes in these factors could result in revisions to revenue and costs of revenue in the period in which the revisions are determined on a prospective basis, which could materially affect the Company’s results of operations for that period. Provisions for losses on uncompleted contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses are determined.
Performance Obligations
    A performance obligation is a contractual promise to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606. The transaction price of a contract is allocated to distinct performance obligations and recognized as revenue when or as the performance obligations are satisfied. The Company’s contracts often require significant integrated services and, even when delivering multiple distinct services, are generally accounted for as a single performance obligation. Contract amendments and change orders are generally not distinct from the existing contract due to the significant integrated service provided in the context of the contract and are accounted for as a modification of the existing contract and performance obligation. With the exception of certain Specialty Civil service contracts, the majority of the Company’s performance obligations are generally completed within one year.
    When more than one contract is entered into with a customer on or close to the same date, the Company evaluates whether those contracts should be combined and accounted for as a single contract as well as whether those contracts should be accounted for as more than one performance obligation. This evaluation requires significant judgment and is based on the facts and circumstances of the various contracts, which could change the amount of revenue and profit recognition in a given period depending upon the outcome of the evaluation.
    Remaining performance obligations represent the amount of unearned transaction prices for contracts, including approved and unapproved change orders. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, the amount of the Company’s remaining performance obligations was $1,665.3$1,686.7 million. The Company expects to recognize approximately 75.7%75.5% of its remaining performance obligations as revenue during the next twelve months. Revenue recognized from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods was $(0.8)$(0.7) million and $(1.6)$(0.8) million for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $(0.4)$(1.1) million and $(3.6)$(4.4) million for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Variable Consideration
    Transaction pricing for the Company’s contracts may include variable consideration, such as unapproved change orders, claims, incentives and liquidated damages. Management estimates variable consideration for a performance obligation utilizing estimation methods that best predict the amount of consideration to which the Company will be entitled. Variable consideration is included in the estimated transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. Management’s estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price are based on legal opinions, past practices with the customer, specific discussions, correspondence or preliminary negotiations with the customer and all other relevant information that is reasonably available. The effect of a change in variable consideration on the transaction price of a performance obligation is typically recognized as an adjustment to revenue on a cumulative catch-up basis. To the extent unapproved change orders, claims and liquidated damages reflected in the transaction price are not resolved in the Company’s favor, or to the extent incentives reflected in the transaction price are not earned, there could be reductions in, or reversals of, previously recognized revenue.
7


    As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company included approximately $51.4$70.8 million and $52.6 million, respectively, of unapproved change orders and/or claims in the transaction price for certain contracts that were in the process of
7


being resolved in the normal course of business, including through negotiation, arbitration and other proceedings. These transaction price adjustments are included within Contract Assets or Contract Liabilities as appropriate. The Company actively engages with its customers to complete the final change order approval process, and generally expects these processes to be completed within one year. Amounts ultimately realized upon final acceptance by customers could be higher or lower than such estimated amounts.

Construction Joint Ventures

Certain contracts are executed through joint ventures. The arrangements are often formed for the execution of single contracts or projects and allow the Company to share risks and secure specialty skills required for project execution.
In accordance with ASC Topic 810, Consolidation, the Company assesses its joint ventures at inception to determine if any meet the qualifications of a VIE. The Company considers a joint venture a VIE if either (a) the total equity investment is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, (b) characteristics of a controlling financial interest are missing (either the ability to make decisions through voting or other rights, the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity or the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity), or (c) the voting rights of the equity holders are not proportional to their obligations to absorb the expected losses of the entity and/or their rights to receive the expected residual returns of the entity and substantially all of the entity’s activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights. Upon the occurrence of certain events outlined in ASC 810, the Company reassesses its initial determination of whether the joint venture is a VIE.
The Company also evaluates whether it is the primary beneficiary of each VIE and consolidates the VIE if the Company has both (a) the power to direct the economically significant activities of the entity, and (b) the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company considers the contractual agreements that define the ownership structure, distribution of profits and losses, risks,
8


responsibilities, indebtedness, voting rights and board representation of the respective parties in determining whether it qualifies as the primary beneficiary. The Company also considers all parties that have direct or implicit variable interests when determining whether it is the primary beneficiary. When the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary, the VIE is consolidated. In accordance with ASC 810, management’s assessment of whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE is performed continuously.
8


Construction joint ventures that do not involve a VIE, or for which the Company is not the primary beneficiary, are evaluated for consolidation under the voting interest model that considers whether the Company owns or controls more than 50% of the voting interest in the joint venture. For construction joint ventures that are not consolidated but for which the Company has significant influence, the Company accounts for its interest in the joint ventures using the proportionate consolidation method, whereby the Company’s proportionate share of the joint ventures’ assets, liabilities, revenue and cost of operations are included in the appropriate classifications in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. See Note 11. Joint Ventures for additional discussion regarding joint ventures.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards - Guidance Adopted in 20202021

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes,” which removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Depending on the amendment, adoption may be applied on the retrospective, modified retrospective, or prospective basis. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2021 on a prospective basis, which did not have an impact on our disclosures for income taxes.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
    
    In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which introduced an expected credit loss methodology for the measurement and recognition of credit losses on most financial assets, including trade accounts receivables. The expected credit loss methodology under ASU 2016-13 is based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts, and replaces the probable/incurred loss model for measuring and recognizing expected losses under current GAAP. The ASU also requires disclosure of information regarding how a company developed its allowance, including changes in the factors that influenced management’s estimate of expected credit losses and the reasons for those changes. The ASU and its related clarifying updates are effective for smaller reporting companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is still evaluating the new standard but dodoes not expect it to have a material impact on our estimate of the allowance for uncollectible accounts.
Management has evaluated other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe that they will have a significant impact on the financial statements and related disclosures.

COVID-19 Pandemic

    During March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a global pandemic related to the rapidly growing outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19). The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly affected economic conditions in the United States and internationally as national, state and local governments reacted to the public health crisis by requiring mitigation measures that have disrupted business activities for an uncertain period of time.

The Company believes that the COVID-19 pandemic hasdid not hadhave a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial results for the period ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021. Currently, most of the Company’s construction services are deemed essential under governmental mitigation orders and all of our business segments continue to operate. The Company has issued several notices of force majeure for the purpose of recognizing delays in construction schedules due to COVID-19 outbreaks on certain of its work sites and has also received notices of force majeure from the owners of certain projects and certain subcontractors. Management does not believe that any delays on projects related to these events of force majeure will have a material impact on itsthe Company's results of operations.

Management’s top priority has been to take appropriate actions to protect the health and safety of the Company's employees, customers and business partners, including adjusting the Company's standard operating procedures to respond to evolving health guidelines. Management believes that it is taking appropriate steps to mitigate any potential impact to the
9


Company; however, given the uncertainty regarding the potential effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, any future impacts cannot be quantified or predicted with specificity.

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic could affect the Company’s future business activities and financial results, including new contract awards, reduced crew productivity, contract amendments or cancellations, higher operating costs or delayed project start dates or project shutdowns that may be requested or mandated by governmental authorities or others.

Note 2. Contract Assets and Liabilities

    The timing of when we bill our customers is generally dependent upon agreed-upon contractual terms, milestone billings based on the completion of certain phases of the work, or when services are provided. Sometimes, billing occurs subsequent to revenue recognition, resulting in unbilled revenue, which is accounted for as a contract asset. Sometimes we receive advance payments or deposits from our customers before revenue is recognized, resulting in deferred revenue, which is accounted for as a contract liability.

    Contract assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets represent the following:

costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings, which arise when revenue has been recorded but the amount has not been billed; and

retainage amounts for the portion of the contract price billed by us for work performed but held for payment by the customer as a form of security until we reach certain construction milestones or complete the project.

Note 5. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

    The Company applies ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, which establishes a framework for measuring fair value. ASC 820 defines fair value as an exit price, which is the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the Company’s principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy established in ASC 820 generally requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the entity’s own assumptions based on market data and the entity’s judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

    The valuation hierarchy is composed of three levels. The classification within the valuation hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The levels within the valuation hierarchy are described below:

Level 1 — Inputs to the fair value measurement are observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities listed on active market exchanges.
Level 2 — Inputs to the fair value measurement are determined using prices for recently traded assets and liabilities with similar underlying terms, as well as direct or indirect observable inputs, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
Level 3 — Inputs to the fair value measurement are unobservable inputs, such as estimates, assumptions, and valuation techniques when little or no market data exists for the assets or liabilities.


    The following table sets forth information regarding the Company's liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

In 2019,On August 2, 2021, the Company entered into three equity purchase agreements and issued Series B Preferred Stock as discussed in Note 6. Debt and Series B Preferred Stock. The agreements require that onclosed an underwritten public offering. At the conversion of anyclosing of the Convertibleoffering, the following equity transactions were completed with ASOF Holdings I, L.P. (“ASOF”) and Ares Special Situations Fund IV, L.P. (“ASSF” and, together with ASOF, “Ares Parties”):

the Ares Parties converted all of their Series A Preferred Stock, to common shares, the Series B Preferred Stock will receive additional warrants (Anti-dilution Warrants) to purchase common shares at a price ofpar value $0.0001 per share. The agreements also require that if share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) (consisting of all of the Company's issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock), into 2,132,273 shares of common stock;

the Company failsissued to meet a certain Adjusted EBITDA (asthe Ares Parties 507,417 shares of common stock representing shares of common stock underlying warrants that term is defined in the agreements) threshold on a trailing twelve-month basis from May 31, 2020 through April 30, 2021, the Series B Preferred Stock will receive additional warrants (Performance Warrants)Ares Parties were entitled to purchase common shares at $0.0001 per share. On May 20, 2019, thepursuant to anti-dilution rights that are triggered upon conversion rights forof the Series A Preferred Stock were amended to allowdescribed below as a part of the holders of Series AB Preferred Stock to convert all or any portion- Anti-Dilution Warrants” section;

For further discussion of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding into common stock at any point in time.the equity transaction see Note 8. Earnings Per Share.

    The information below describes the balance sheet classification and the recurring fair value measurement for these requirements:

Private Warrants (recurring) - The Company has 295,000 private warrants that are not actively traded on the public markets and the Company adjusts the fair value at the end of each fiscal period using the price on that date multiplied by the remaining private warrants. The Private warrants were recorded as Warrantwarrant obligations at the end of the quarter and the fair value adjustment was recorded as other expenseWarrant liability fair value adjustment for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021. For further discussion see Note 8. Earnings Per Share.

    Series B Preferred Stock - Anti-dilution Warrants (recurring) - The number of common shares attributable to the warrants issued to Series B Preferred Stockholders for anti-dilution warrants were as follows;

upon conversion by Series A Preferred Stockholders isand determined on a 30-day volume weighted average. The Anti-dilution warrantAs noted above, these anti-dilution warrants were issued upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock as part of the equity transaction on August 2, 2021 and therefore no liability was valuedrecorded at September 30, 2021.

upon the exercise of any warrant with an exercise price of $11.50 or higher. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had 8,480,000 Merger Warrants to purchase shares of common stock at $11.50 per share. If the Merger Warrants were converted it would result in an additional 2.6 million anti-dilution warrants being issued. As of September 30, 2021, the Company recorded the anti-dilution warrants at fair value, which was estimated using thea Monte Carlo simulation based on certain significant unobservable inputs, such as a risk rate premium, volatility of stock, conversion stock price, at the endcurrent stock price and amount of time remaining before expiration of the quarter and was recordedMerger Warrants. The calculation derived a fair value adjustment of $18.5 million to the liability based on an anti-dilution warrant fair value of $7.27.

Significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value calculation as a liability.of the periods indicated were as follows:

September 30, 2021
Stock price$11.43 
Conversion stock price$11.50 
Time before Merger Warrant expiration1.49 
Stock volatility56.95 %
Risk-free interest rate0.18 %

    Series B-1 Preferred Stock - Performance Warrants (recurring) - The warrant liability was recorded at fair value as a liability, using a Monte Carlo Simulation based on certain significant unobservable inputs, such as a risk rate premium, Adjusted EBITDA volatility, stock price volatility and projected Adjusted EBITDA for the Company. As of June 30, 2021, theThe Company remained above the Adjusted EBITDA threshold for the trailing twelve-month basis from May 31, 2020 through April 30, 2021 and therefore was not required to issue additional warrants.

    Other financial instruments of the Company not listed in the table consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current liabilities that approximate their fair values. Additionally, management believes that the outstanding recorded balance on the line of credit and long-term debt, approximates fair value due to their floating interest rates.

Note 7. Commitments and Contingencies

    In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into agreements that provide financing for its machinery and equipment, facility and vehicle needs. The Company reviews these agreements for potential lease classification, and at inception, determines whether a lease is an operating or finance lease. Lease assets and liabilities, which generally represent the present value of future minimum lease payments over the term of the lease, are recognized as of the commencement date. Under ASC Topic 842, leases with an initial lease term of twelve months or less are classified as short-term leases and are not recognized in the condensed consolidated balance sheets unless the lease contains a purchase option that is reasonably certain to be exercised.
    Lease term, discount rate, variable lease costs and future minimum lease payment determinations require the use of judgment as these are based on the facts and circumstances related to each specific lease. Lease terms are generally based on their initial non-cancelable terms, unless there is a renewal option that is reasonably certain to be exercised. Various factors, including economic incentives, intent, past history and business need are considered to determine if a renewal option is reasonably certain to be exercised. The implicit rate in a lease agreement is used when it can be determined. Otherwise, the Company's incremental borrowing rate, which is based on information available as of the lease commencement date, including applicable lease terms and the current economic environment, is used to determine the value of the lease obligation.

Letters of Credit and Surety Bonds

    In the ordinary course of business, the Company is required to post letters of credit and surety bonds to customers in support of performance under certain contracts. Such letters of credit are generally issued by a bank or similar financial institution. The letter of credit or surety bond commits the issuer to pay specified amounts to the holder of the letter of credit or surety bond under certain conditions. If the letter of credit or surety bond issuer were required to pay any amount to a holder, the Company would be required to reimburse the issuer, which, depending upon the circumstances, could result in a charge to earnings. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, the Company was contingently liable under letters of credit issued under its Third A&R Credit Agreement,our credit facility, in the amount of $21.7$33.7 million and $7.8 million, respectively, related to projects and insurance. In addition, as of JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had outstanding surety bonds on projects with nominal amounts of $3.0$3.2 billion and $2.8 billion, respectively. The remaining approximate exposure related to these surety bonds amounted to $400.0 million and $293.1 million, respectively.

Legal Proceedings

The Company is a nominal defendant to a lawsuit, instituted in December 2019 in the Delaware Chancery Court by a purported stockholder of the Company, against the Company’s Board of Directors, Oaktree Capital Management ("Oaktree"), and Ares Management, LLC ("Ares"), from which Ares was subsequently dismissed. The complaint asserts a variety of claims arising out of the sale of Series B Preferred Stock and warrants to Ares and Oaktree in May 2019. The complaint alleges claims for breach of fiduciary duty directly on behalf of putative class of stockholders and derivatively on behalf of the Company, aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty both derivatively and directly, and unjust enrichment derivatively on behalf of the Company. The plaintiff is seeking rescission of the transaction, unspecified monetary damages, and fees. On July 28, 2021, the Company and the plaintiff stockholder entered into a memorandum of understanding to settle the lawsuit against all defendants, subject to approval by the Delaware Chancery Court, the terms of which do not require payment of any settlement funds to the plaintiff except that, as they are entitled to do under Delaware law, the plaintiffs are entitled to ask the Court to award them attorneys’ fees in connection with the settlement. The timing of the approval of the settlement, if any, by the Court is unknown at this time but is not expected to occur prior to year-end. The Company has placed its director and officer liability insurance carriers on notice of the lawsuit;lawsuit and the proposed settlement; pursuant to the coverage terms, the Company is subject to a $1.5 million deductible, which the Company has not yet exhausted, but we expect will be spent in defense of the lawsuit.exhausted. Pursuant to agreements entered into in connection with the sale of Series B Preferred Stock, the Company is obligated to indemnify Oaktree and Ares for any legal fees and damages incurred by either of them in connection with this matter.


16


The Company is involved in a variety of other legal cases, claims and other disputes that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of its business. While the Company believes it has good defense against these cases and intends to defend them vigorously, it cannot provide assurance that it will be successful in recovering all or any of the potential damages it has claimed or in defending claims against the Company. While the lawsuits and claims are asserted for amounts that may be material, should an unfavorable outcome occur, management does not currently expect that any currently pending matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, an unfavorable resolution of one or more of such matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Note 8. Earnings Per Share

    The Company calculates earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share. Basic EPS is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares of common stock outstanding during the period.

    Income (loss) available to common stockholders is computed by deducting the dividends accrued for the period on cumulative preferred stock from net income and net income allocated to participating securities. If there is a net loss, the amount of the loss is increased by those preferred dividends.

    Diluted EPS, where applicable, assumes the dilutive effect of (i) Series A cumulative convertible preferred stock, using the if-converted method, (ii) publicly traded warrants, (iii) Series B Preferred Stock - Warrants and (iv) the assumed exercise of in-the-money stock options and the assumed vesting of outstanding restricted stock units (“RSUs”), using the treasury stock method.

    Whether the Company has net income, or a net loss determines whether potential issuances of common stock are included in the diluted EPS computation or whether they would be anti-dilutive. As a result, if there is a net loss, diluted EPS is computed in the same manner as basic EPS is computed. Similarly, if the Company has net income but its preferred dividend
19


adjustment made in computing income available to common stockholders results in a net loss available to common stockholders, diluted EPS would be computed the same as basic EPS.

Public Offering

On August 2, 2021, the Company closed an underwritten public offering of 10,547,866 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a public offering price of $11.00 per share and pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase an additional 7,747,589 shares of Common Stock at a price of $10.9999 per Pre-Funded Warrant (the “Offering”).

The Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase 7,747,589 shares of our Common Stock were issued to ASOF in connection with the closing of the Offering. The Pre-Funded Warrants have an exercise price of $0.0001 per share and do not expire and are exercisable at any time after their original issuance. The Pre-Funded Warrants may not be exercised by the holder to the extent that the holder, together with its affiliates that report together as a group under the beneficial ownership rules, would beneficially own, after such exercise more than 32.0% of our issued and outstanding Common Stock.

At the closing of the Offering the Ares Parties completed the following equity transactions:

converted all of their Series A Preferred Stock into 2,132,273 shares of Common Stock;

the Company issued to the Ares Parties 507,417 shares of Common Stock representing shares of Common Stock underlying warrants that the Ares Parties were entitled to pursuant to anti-dilution rights that are triggered upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock described in Note 5. Fair value of financial instruments; and

the Company issued to the Ares Parties 5,996,310 shares of Common Stock for the exercise of warrants that were issued to the Ares Parties in connection with their original purchases of Series B Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock - Warrants”).

Merger Warrants

On August 4, 2015, M III formed a Special Purpose Acquisition Corporation and issued public and private warrants before the Merger with the Company. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, the Company had 16,925,160 Merger Warrants outstanding, of which 295,000 are considered private warrants. Two Merger Warrants will be exercisable for one share of our common stock at $11.50 per share until the expiration on March 26, 2023. For further discussion about the valuation of the private warrants see Note 5. Fair Value of Financial Instruments.

Series B Preferred Stock Anti-dilution Warrants

The Company also had the following potential outstanding warrants related to the Series B Preferred Stock issuance.

At June 30, 2021, a total of 636,221 warrants calculated on an if-converted method for the conversion of shares related to the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock. As discussed in Note 5. Fair Value of Financial Instruments, these warrants are recorded as a liability. These warrants are not included in the weighted average share calculation as the contingent event (conversion of Series A Preferred Stock) had not occurred at the end of the quarter.

The second set of additional Additional warrants would be issued if the exercise of any warrant with an exercise price of $11.50 or higher.

See The final set of additional warrants would be issued if the exercise of any equity issued pursuant to the Company’s long term incentive plan or other equity plan with a strike price of $11.50 or higher.

Series A Preferred Stock

    As of June 30, 2021, we had 17,483 shares of Series A Preferred Stock with a statedNote 5. Fair value of $1,000 per share plus accumulated dividends. Dividends are paid on the Series A Preferred Stock as, if and when declared by our Board. To extent permitted, dividends are required to be paid in cash quarterly in arrears on each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 on the stated value at a rate of 10% per annum.

    If not paid in cash, dividends will accrue on the stated value and will increase the stated value on and effective as of the applicable dividend date without anyfinancial instruments for further action by the Board at 12% per annum.
discussion
.
    So long as any shares of Series B Preferred Stock of the Company are currently outstanding or from and after the occurrence of any non-payment event or default event and until cured or waived, the foregoing rates will increase by 2% per annum.

    As of June 30, 2021, the Company has accrued a cumulative of $5.7 million in dividends to the holder of Series A Preferred Stock as a reduction to additional paid-in capital.

Stock Compensation
    
    Under guidance of ASC Topic 718 “Compensation — Stock Compensation,” stock-based compensation expense is measured at the date of grant, based on the calculated fair value of the stock-based award, and is recognized as an expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the award).

    The fair value of the RSUs was based on the closing market price of our common stock on the date of the grant. Stock compensation expense for the RSUs is being amortized using the straight-line method over the service period. For the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and 2020, we recognized $1.9$1.5 million and $0.8$1.1 million in compensation expense, respectively, and $2.7$4.2 million and $2.0$3.1 million for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.


Note 9. Income Taxes

    The Company’s statutory federal tax rate was 21.00% for the periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. State tax rates for the same period vary among states and range from approximately 0.8% to 12.0%11.5%. A small number of states do not impose an income tax.

19


    The effective tax rates for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and 2020 were 47.0%(2.3)% and 56.8%35.3%, respectively, and were (12.7)(3.6)% and (73.4)%82.5% for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The difference between the Company’s effective tax rate and the federal statutory rate primarily results from permanent differences related to the interest and other expenses accrued for the Series B Preferred Stock and executive compensation, which is not deductible for federal and state income taxes. There were 0no changes in uncertain tax positions during the periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and 2020.

    On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was enacted by the US Government in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to provide employment retention incentives. We do not believe that these relief measures materially affected the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.

The Company has also made use of the payroll deferral provision to defer social security tax of approximately $13.6 million through December 31, 2020. Half of this amount is required to be paid on December 31, 2021 and the other half by December 31, 2022.


Note 10. Segments

    We operate our business as two reportable segments: the Renewables segment and the Specialty Civil segment. Each of our reportable segments is comprised of similar business units that specialize in services unique to their respective markets. The classification of revenue and gross profit for segment reporting purposes can at times require judgment on the part of
22


management. Our segments may perform services across industries or perform joint services for customers in multiple industries. To determine reportable segment gross profit, certain allocations, including allocations of shared and indirect costs, such as facility costs, equipment costs and indirect operating expenses, were made based on segment revenue.

    Separate measures of the Company’s assets, including capital expenditures and cash flows by reportable segment are not produced or utilized by management to evaluate segment performance. A substantial portion of the Company’s fixed assets are owned by and accounted for in our equipment department, including operating machinery, equipment and vehicles, as well as office equipment, buildings and leasehold improvements, and are used on an interchangeable basis across our reportable segments. As such, for reporting purposes, total under/over absorption of equipment expenses consisting primarily of depreciation is allocated to the Company's two reportable segments based on segment revenue.
    
The following is a brief description of the Company's reportable segments:

Renewables Segment

    The Renewables segment operates throughout the United States and specializes in a range of services for the power delivery, solar, wind and battery storage markets that includes design, procurement, construction, restoration, and maintenance.

Specialty Civil Segment

    The Specialty Civil segment operates throughout the United States and specializes in a range of services that include:

Heavy civil construction services such as road and bridge construction, specialty paving, sports field development, industrial maintenance, outsourced contract mining and heavy hauling.

Environmental remediation services such as site development, environmental site closure, and coal ash management.
Rail infrastructure services such as planning, design, procurement, construction and maintenance of major railway and intermodal facilities.

We have noticed an impact of COVID-19 in adding new projects to our backlog. Our bidding activity continues at very high levels, but the final approval process for some projects, especially in our Specialty Segment, has been slowed due to COVID-19. Despite that, we were able to maintain a relatively consistent total backlog for June 30, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020.Transaction Agreement

We are unable to predict whether COVID-19 will continue to negatively impact the construction business and the degree of such impact as more of the population becomes vaccinated. We do not believe that COVID-19 is having a negative impactAs previously disclosed, on our liquidity. We could see a change in this status if we experience future work stoppages at our projects due to significant supply chain or production disruptions, which would prevent us from billing customers for new work performed. If the federal, state and local governments proceed with more restrictive measures, and our customers determine to stop work or terminate projects, these actions would negatively impact our business, results of operations, liquidity and prospects. In addition,July 28, 2021, the Company is unable to predict any changesentered into a Transaction Agreement (the “Transaction Agreement”) with Ares Special Situations Fund IV, L.P.

Trends and Future Opportunities

Business Environment

We believe there are long-term growth opportunities across our industries, and we continue to have a positive long-term outlook. Although not without risks and challenges, including those discussed in “Significant Factors Impacting Results”
and in “Forward-Looking Statements” and items referred to in Item 1A. Risk Factors disclosed in the Company's Annual Report. We believe that with our full-service operations, broad geographic reach, financial position and technical expertise, we are well positioned to mitigate these risks and continue to capitalize on opportunities and trends in our industries.

Labor Shortage. We continue to address the longer-term need for additional labor resources in our markets, as our customers continue to seek additional specialized labor resources to address an aging workforce and longer-term labor availability issues, increasing pressure to reduce costs and improve reliability, and increasing duration and complexity of their capital programs. We believe these trends will continue, possibly to such a degree that demand for labor resources will outpace supply. Furthermore, the cyclical nature of the Renewable and to a certain extent parts of our Specialty Civil segment can create shortages of qualified labor in those markets during periods of high demand. Our ability to capitalize on available opportunities is limited by our ability to employ, train and retain the necessary skilled personnel, and therefore we are taking proactive steps to develop our workforce, including through strategic relationships with universities, the military and unions and the expansion and development of our training facility and postsecondary educational institution. Although we believe these initiatives will help address workforce needs, meeting our customers’ demand for labor resources could remain challenging.

Additionally, we believe that labor costs will increase given the recent escalated inflationary environment in the United States. Our labor costs are typically passed through in our contracts, and the portion of our workforce that is represented by labor unions typically operate under multi-year collective bargaining agreements, which provide some visibility into future labor costs. As a result, while we continue to monitor our labor markets, we do not currently believe this environment will present a material risk to our profitability and would expect to be able to adjust contract pricing with customers to the extent wages and other labor costs increase, whether due to renegotiation of collective bargaining agreements or market conditions.

Supply Chain Disruption. The world’s biggest solar panel manufacturers have recently been warning of panel shortages amid disruptions in the supply chain and rising material prices. These manufactures have stated that output will be constrained because key component suppliers will be running at less than full capacity in the near future. The reduction in supply is also coupled with the Department of Commerce considering 50% to 250% tariffs on imported solar panels from Southwest Asia. A majority of the United States crystalline silicon solar module imports in the first half of 2021 came from this geographic location. We believe that these disruptions and material price increases could cause a delay in construction schedules for 2022, inefficiencies in our build schedules and fluctuations to our revenue projections.

Regulatory Challenges. The regulatory environment creates both challenges and opportunities for our business, and in recent years heavy civil and rail construction have been impacted by regulatory and permitting delays in certain periods, particularly with respect to regulatory and environmental permitting processes continue to create uncertainty for projects and negatively impact customer spending, and delays have increased as the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted regulatory agency operations.

However, we believe that there are also several existing, pending or proposed legislative or regulatory actions that may alleviate certain regulatory and permitting issues and positively impact long-term demand, particularly in connection with infrastructure and renewable energy spending. For example, regulatory changes affecting siting and
30


right-of-way processes could potentially accelerate construction for transmission projects, and state and federal reliability standards are creating incentives for system investment and maintenance. Additionally, as described above, we consider renewable energy, including solar and wind generation facilities, to be an ongoing opportunity; however, policy and economic incentives designed to support and encourage such projects can create variability of project timing.

Renewables Segment

The Renewables segment was impacted by the following significant operational trends:

Revenue increased 31.0%58.1% to $424.9$517.2 million for the quarter ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 as compared to $324.3$327.1 million.

Revenues increased primarily due to wind projects that started later in 2021 compared to 2020. Further, higher demand persists in our solar market as projects continue to increase due to our consistent, safe and reliable performance with our customers on our wind projects, that has allowed us to capture further solar opportunities in backlog for 2021 and beyond.

Gross profit increased 16.0% to $42.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $37.0 million.

We have maintained a heavy focus on construction of renewable power production capacity as renewable energy, particularly from wind and solar, has become widely accepted within the electric utility industry and has become a cost-effective solution for the creation of new generating capacity. We believe that this shift coupled with the below, will continue to drive opportunity in this segment over the long-term:

The current administration has a goal of investing $2 trillion in modern, sustainable, and clean energy infrastructure.

Renewable energy power generation has reached a level of scale and maturity that permits these technologies to now be cost-effective competitors to more traditional power generation technologies, including on an unsubsidized basis. The most significant changes have been related to increased turbine sizes and better battery storage methods.

Over 40 states and the District of Colombia have adopted renewable portfolio standards for clean energy.

In December 2020, there was a one year extension of the PTC at 60% for projects that begin construction prior to December 31, 2021 and a two year extension of 26% Solar Investment Tax Credit (“ITC”) to 2022 (22% credit extended through 2023).

On June 29, 2021, the IRS issued a notice which provides that projects that began construction in 2016-2019 have six years, and projects that began construction in 2020 have five years from the date construction began to be placed-in-service to qualify for the PTC or ITC that was in effect when construction began. This new rule effectively extends the amount of time that many projects will be eligible for PTC to 2025.

25


As a result, wind and solar power are among the leading sources of new power generation capacity in the U.S., and the Company does not anticipate this trend to change in the near future as we are continuing to see growth through new awards in our backlog:

Such differences relate to the timing of executing a formal contract or receiving a notice to proceed. More specifically, backlog sometimes may include awards for which a contract has not yet been executed or a notice to proceed has not been issued, but for which there are no remaining major uncertainties that the project will proceed (e.g., adequate funding is in place).

Specialty Civil Segment

The Specialty Civil segment was impacted by the following significant operational trends:

Revenue decreased 13.5%7.5% to $135.3$180.6 million for the quarter ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 as compared to $156.3$195.2 million.

Gross profit The revenue decrease 38.6% to $10.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $17.3 million

Revenue and gross profit decreases for the three months ended areis primarily due to challenges in the following end markets:

The heavy civil construction market has seen increased competition in a few of our end markets, which has led to lower margins on certain heavy civil construction projects reducing overall profitability.markets.

The rail market has been negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and the reduction of spending budgets of some of our customers, which has led to further delays on portions of our large rail jobs. However, we have recently seen increased bidding opportunities.

All of our end markets in this segment have experienced delays in timing related to obtaining governmental approvals and environmental permitting that have affected the start and bidding opportunities of certain projects.

Despite the delays in project starts mentioned above we continued to see a strong bidding environment in the heavy civil construction and environmental remediation end markets for 2021 and had significant awarded projects related to:

The environmental remediation market continues to provide opportunities for growth and the Company has been awarded a very significant project that started in 2021, coupled with the Company being short listed on some very significant projectprojects with anticipated start dates in 2021; and2022.

The heavy civil construction market continues to be consistent year over year for awarded projects.

26


The rail market has started to see a small turnaround in bidding as our customer's spending budgets have increased. This has increased the number of larger rail jobs available for 2022 construction.

We believe that our business relationships with customers in these sectors are excellent and the strong reputation that our acquired companies have built has provided us with the right foundation to continue to grow our revenue base. The drivers to further growing this segment are as follows:

The FMI 2021 Overview Report published in the first quarter of 2021 projects that nonresidential construction put in place for the United States will be over $500 billion per year from 2021 to 2024.

Fast Act extension and highway trust fund infusion of $13.6 billion for the highway and transit account.

According to the American Coal Ash Association, coal combustion residuals “CCRs” or “coal ash” are produced by coal-fired power plants and represent one of the largest categories of industrial waste in the U.S., as 78.6 million tons of CCRs were produced in 2019. The Company anticipates this could be a $50.0 billion industry over the next ten years.

Additionally, there is significant overlap in labor, skills and equipment needs between our Renewables segment and our Specialty Civil segment, which we expect will continue to provide us with operating efficiencies as we continue to expand this sector. The Company continues to cross leverage these two segments and continues to see future growth through new awards in our backlog:

Backlog

    For companies in the construction industry, backlog can be an indicator of future revenue streams. Estimated backlog represents the amount of revenue we expect to realize from the uncompleted portions of existing construction contracts, including new contracts under which work has not begun and awarded contracts for which the definitive project documentation is being prepared, as well as revenue from change orders and renewal options. Estimated backlog for work under fixed price contracts and cost-reimbursable contracts is determined based on historical trends, anticipated seasonal impacts, experience from similar projects and estimates of customer demand based on communications with our customers. Cost-reimbursable contracts are included in backlog based on the estimated total contract price upon completion.

The following table summarizes our backlog by segment as of JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

27


Based on historical trends in the Company’s backlog, we believe awarded contracts to be firm and that the revenue for such contracts will be recognized over the life of the project. Timing of revenue for construction and installation projects included in our backlog can be subject to change as a result of customer delays, regulatory factors and/or other project-related factors. These changes could cause estimated revenue to be realized in periods later than originally expected, or not at all. In the past, we have occasionally experienced postponements, cancellations and reductions on construction projects, due to market volatility and regulatory factors. There can be no assurance as to our customers’ requirements or the accuracy of our estimates. As a result, our backlog as of any particular date is an uncertain indicator of future revenue and earnings.

    Backlog is not a term recognized under GAAP, although it is a common measurement used in our industry. Our methodology for determining backlog may not be comparable to the methodologies used by others. See ‘‘Item 1A. Risk Factors’’ in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 8, 2021 for a discussion of the risks associated with our backlog.

Significant Factors Impacting Results

Our revenues, margins and other results of operations can be influenced by a variety of factors in any given period, including those described in Results of Operations and Forward Looking Statements, and those factors have caused fluctuations in our results in the past and are expected to cause fluctuations in our results in the future. Additional information with respect to certain of those factors is provided below.

33


Seasonality. Typically, our revenues are lowest in the first quarter of the year because cold, snowy or wet conditions can create challenging working environments that are more costly for our customers or cause delays on projects. In addition, infrastructure projects often do not begin in a meaningful way until our customers finalize their capital budgets, which typically occurs during the first quarter. Second quarter revenues are typically higher than those in the first quarter, as some projects begin, but continued cold and wet weather can often impact productivity. Third quarter revenues are typically the highest of the year, as a greater number of projects are underway and operating conditions, including weather, are normally more accommodating. Generally, revenues during the fourth quarter are lower than the third quarter but higher than the second quarter, as many projects are completed and customers often seek to spend their capital budgets before year end. However, the holiday season and inclement weather can sometimes cause delays during the fourth quarter, reducing revenues and increasing costs.
Our revenue and results of operations for our Specialty Civil segment are also affected by seasonality but to a lesser extent as these projects are more geographically diverse and less impacted by severe weather. While the first and second quarter revenues are typically lower than the third and fourth quarter, we believe this geographical diversity has allowed this segment to be less seasonal over the course of the year.

Weather and Natural Disasters. The results of our business in a given period can be impacted by adverse weather conditions, severe weather events or natural disasters, which include, among other things, heavy or prolonged snowfall or rainfall, hurricanes, tropical storms, tornadoes, floods, blizzards, extreme temperatures, wildfires, pandemics and earthquakes. These conditions and events can negatively impact our financial results due to the termination, deferral or delay of projects, reduced productivity and exposure to significant liabilities.

Cyclical demand. Fluctuations in end-user demand within the industries we serve, or in the supply of services within those industries, can impact demand for our services. As a result, our business may be adversely affected by industry declines or by delays in new projects. Variations in project schedules or unanticipated changes in project schedules, in particular, in connection with large construction and installation projects, can create fluctuations in revenue, which may adversely affect us in a given period. In addition, revenue from master service agreements, while generally predictable, can be subject to volatility. The financial condition of our customers and their access to capital, variations in project margins, regional, national and global economic, political and market conditions, regulatory or environmental influences, and acquisitions, dispositions or strategic investments can also materially affect quarterly results. Accordingly, our operating results in any particular period may not be indicative of the results that can be expected for any other period.

Revenue mix. The mix of revenues based on the types of services we provide in a given period will impact margins, as certain industries and services provide higher-margin opportunities. Revenue derived from projects billed on a fixed-price basis totaled 99.3%99.5% for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021. Revenue and related costs for construction contracts billed on a time and materials basis are recognized as the services are rendered. Revenue derived from projects billed on a time and materials basis totaled 0.7%0.5% of consolidated revenue for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021.

Size, scope and complexity of projects. Larger or more complex projects with design or construction complexities; more difficult terrain requirements; or longer distance requirements typically yield opportunities for higher margins as we
28


assume a greater degree of performance risk and there is greater utilization of our resources for longer construction timeframes. Furthermore, smaller or less complex projects typically have a greater number of companies competing for them, and competitors at times may more aggressively pursue available work. A greater percentage of smaller scale or less complex work also could negatively impact margins due to the inefficiency of transitioning between a larger number of smaller projects versus continuous production on fewer larger projects. Also, at times we may choose to maintain a portion of our workforce and equipment in an underutilized capacity to ensure we are strategically positioned to deliver on larger projects when they move forward.

Project variability and performance. Margins for a single project may fluctuate period to period due to changes in the volume or type of work performed, the pricing structure under the project contract or job productivity. Additionally, our productivity and performance on a project can vary from period to period based on a number of factors, including unexpected project difficulties or site conditions; project location, including locations with challenging operating conditions; whether the work is on an open or encumbered right of way; inclement weather or severe weather events; environmental restrictions or regulatory delays; protests, other political activity or legal challenges related to a project; and the performance of third parties.

Subcontract work and provision of materials. Work that is subcontracted to other service providers generally yields lower margins, and therefore an increase in subcontract work in a given period can decrease margins. Our customers are usually responsible for supplying the materials for their projects; however, under some contracts we agree to procure all or part of the required materials. Margins may be lower on projects where we furnish a significant amount of materials, including projects where we provide engineering, procurement and construction ("EPC") services, as our markup on materials is generally lower
34


than our markup on labor costs. Furthermore, fluctuations in the price of materials we procure, including as a result of changes in U.S. or global trade relationships or other economic or political conditions, may impact our margins. In a given period, an increase in the percentage of work with higher materials procurement requirements may decrease our overall margins. See further discussion above in "Business Environment".

Coronavirus Pandemic Update

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to significantly impact the United States and the world. Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have been focused on the safety of our employees and ensuring that our construction sites are managed by taking all reasonable precautions to protect on-site personnel.

    We are actively monitoring the COVID-19 pandemic, including disease and variant progression, vaccine response and availability, federal, state and local government actions, the Center for Disease Control (“CDC”) and World Health Organization (“WHO”) responses, supplier and supply chain risks, and prevention and containment measures to maintain business operations. As the COVID-19 pandemic and the responses by federal, state and local governments continue to evolve, we continue to make adjustments to our practices and policies to protect the health of our employees and those we work with at our projects and office locations, while continuing to provide our essential construction services to our clients.

    We believe that the foregoing actions have significantly reduced the Company’s exposure to the effects of COVID-19, including our workforce’s exposure to infection from COVID-19. As of today, we have had a low incidence of infection in our workforce. As vaccines become increasingly available to our workforce, clients and their families, we are evaluating and redoing protocols as management deems appropriate and based on federal, state and local government recommendations and policies.

We have noticed an impact of COVID-19 in adding new projects to our backlog. Our bidding activity continues at very high levels, but the final approval process for some projects, especially in our Specialty Segment, has been slowed due to COVID-19. Despite that, we were able to increase total backlog for September 30, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020.

We are unable to predict whether COVID-19 will continue to negatively impact the construction business and the degree of such impact as more of the population becomes vaccinated. We do not believe that COVID-19 is having a negative impact on our liquidity. We could see a change in this status if we experience future work stoppages at our projects due to significant supply chain or production disruptions, which would prevent us from billing customers for new work performed. Additionally, we could experience a change if we experience future work stoppages, shortages or disruptions as a result of seeking to comply with forthcoming federal vaccine mandate rules from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. If the federal, state and local governments proceed with more restrictive measures, and our customers determine to stop work or terminate projects, these actions would negatively impact our business, results of operations, liquidity and prospects. In addition, the Company is unable to predict any changes in the market for bonding by our sureties.

There were no changes in uncertain tax positions during the periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 and 2020.

Segment Results

The Company operated our business as two reportable segments: the Renewables segment and the Specialty Civil segment. Each of our reportable segments is comprised of similar business units that specialize in services unique to the respective markets that each segment serves. The classification of revenue and gross profit for segment reporting purposes can at times require judgment on the part of management. Our segments may perform services across industries or perform joint services for customers in multiple industries. To determine reportable segment gross profit, certain allocations, including allocations of shared and indirect costs, such as facility costs, equipment costs and indirect operating expenses, were made based on segment revenue.

The following table sets forth segment revenues and gross profit for the years indicated, as well as the dollar and percentage change from the prior year:

The increase was partially offset by $101.8 million decrease in the wind market:

The Company had 16 wind projects of greater than $5.0 million of revenue in the first six months of 2021 compared to 17 wind projects during the same period in 2020.
The average revenue of the 16 wind projects in 2021, was $25.4 million with an average percentage of completion of 61%.
The average revenue of the 17 wind projects in 2020 was $31.8 million with an average percentage of completion of 75% in 2020.
The reduction in revenue for the year on wind projects was related to earlier project starts in 2020 compared to 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

    Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations, our cash balances and availability under our Third A&Rnew Credit Agreement. Our primary liquidity needs are for working capital, debt service, dividends on our Series B Preferred Stock, income taxes, capital expenditures, insurance collateral, and strategic acquisitions. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we had approximately $117.7$158.3 million in cash, and $53.3$116.3 million availability under our Third A&R Credit Agreement.

We anticipate that our existing cash balances, funds generated from operations, and borrowings will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements for the next twelve months. No assurance can be given, however, that these sources will be sufficient, because there are many factors which could affect our liquidity, including some whichthat are beyond our control. Please see “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 8, 2021 for a discussion of the risks associated with our liquidity.

Capital Expenditures

    For the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we incurred $15.5$22.7 million in finance lease payments and an additional $14.6$24.0 million in cash purchases for equipment. We estimate that we will spend approximately two percent of revenue for capital expenditures for 2021. Actual capital expenditures may increase or decrease in the future depending upon business activity levels, as well as ongoing assessments of equipment lease versus buy decisions based on short and long-term equipment requirements.

Working Capital

    We require working capital to support seasonal variations in our business, primarily due to the effect of weather conditions on external construction and maintenance work and the spending patterns of our customers, both of which influence the timing of associated spending to support related customer demand. Our business is typically slower in the first quarter of each calendar year. Working capital needs are generally lower during the spring when projects are awarded and we receive down payments from customers. Conversely, working capital needs generally increase during the summer or fall months due to increased demand for our services when favorable weather conditions exist in many of the regions in which we operate. Working capital needs are typically lower and working capital is converted to cash during the winter months. These seasonal trends, however, can be offset by changes in the timing of projects, which can be affected by project delays or accelerations and/or other factors that may affect customer spending.

    Generally, we receive 5% to 10% cash payments from our customers upon the inception of our Renewable projects. Timing of billing milestones and project close-outs can contribute to changes in unbilled revenue. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2021,
40


substantially all of our costs in excess of billings and earnings will be billed to customers in the normal course of business within the next twelve months. Net accounts receivable balances, which consist of contract billings as well as costs and earnings in excess of billings and retainage, increased to $409.3$550.1 million as of JuneSeptember 30, 2021 from $309.0 million as of December 31, 2020, due primarily to timing of project activity, and collection of billings to customers.

    Our billing terms are generally net 30 days, and some of our contracts allow our customers to retain a portion of the contract amount (generally, from 5% to 10%) until the job is completed. As part of our ongoing working capital management practices, we evaluate opportunities to improve our working capital cycle time through contractual provisions and certain financing arrangements. Our agreements with subcontractors often may contain a ‘‘pay-if-paid’’ provision, whereby our payments to subcontractors are made only after we are paid by our customers.

Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $1.3 million, as compared to net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $11.4 million, as compared to $64.6of $58.8 million over the same period in 2020. The decreaseincrease in net cash usedprovided by operating activities reflects the timing of receipts from customers and payments to vendors in the ordinary course of business. The change was primarily attributable to lower payments on payables and accrued liabilities coupled withpartially offset by lower collections of accounts receivable and contract assets due to the timing of projects.

Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 was $13.6$21.0 million, as compared to $1.5$1.7 million over the same period in 2020. The increase in net cash used by investing activities was primarily attributable to an increase in purchases of property, plant and equipment.

Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $14.0 million, as compared to net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $21.4 million, as compared to $21.7of $29.4 million over the same period in 2020.

Series A Preferred Stock

    As of June 30, 2021, we had 17,483 shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued The increase in net cash provided by financing activities was primarily attributable to proceeds from the debt and outstanding. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock had an initial stated value of $1,000 per share (or approximately $17.5 million inequity offerings, offset by the aggregate). Dividends are paid on the Series A Preferred Stock as, if and when declared by our Board. To extent permitted and only as, if and when declared by our Board, dividends are required to be paid in cash quarterly in arrears on each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 on the stated value at a rate of 10% per annum.

34


    If not paid in cash, dividends will accrue on the stated value and will increase the stated value on and effective asextinguishment of the applicable dividend date without any further action by the Board at 12% per annum. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had increased the initial stated value by $5.7 million in the aggregate rather than pay cash dividends.

    So long as any shares ofterm loan and Series B Preferred Stock of the Company are currently outstanding or from and after the occurrence of any non-payment event or default event and until cured or waived, the foregoing rates will increase by 2% per annum. The Company is currently restricted from paying cash dividends on Series A Preferred Stock because it has outstanding dividends that are accrued on the Series B preferred stock.

Stock.
    The Series A Preferred Stock does not have a scheduled redemption date or maturity date. Subject to the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock, we may, at any time and from time to time, redeem all or any portion of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding. As a condition to the consummation of any change of control (as described in the certificate governing the Series A Preferred Stock), we are required to redeem all shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding. We are also required to use the net cash proceeds from certain transactions to redeem the maximum number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock that can be redeemed with such net cash proceeds, except as prohibited by the Third A&R Credit Agreement.

    Based on the stated value of the Series A Preferred Stock as of June 30, 2021 after giving effect to the accrual of dividends, we would be required to pay quarterly cash dividends in the aggregate of $0.6 million on the Series A Preferred Stock. If unpaid, the dividends will accrue at a rate of 12% per annum and increase the stated value of the Series A Preferred Stock. We do not presently expect to pay cash dividends.

Series B Preferred Stock

    As of June 30, 2021, we had 199,474 shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock had an initial stated value of $1,000 per share (or approximately $199.5 million in the aggregate). Our common stock and Series A Preferred Stock are junior to the Series B Preferred Stock. Dividends are paid in cash on the Series B Preferred Stock as, if and when declared by our Board. To the extent not prohibited by applicable law, and only as, if and when declared by our Board, dividends are required to be paid in cash quarterly in arrears on each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31. For any dividend period that the Total Net Leverage Ratio is greater than 1.50:1.00, the dividend rate is 13.5% per annum; and otherwise at a rate of 12.0% per annum.

    If not paid in cash, dividends will accrue on the stated value and will increase the stated value on Series B Preferred Stock at a rate of 15%. As of June 30, 2021, the unpaid dividends had increased the initial stated value by $18.3 million in the aggregate.

    Until the Series B Preferred Stock is redeemed, neither we nor any of our subsidiaries can declare, pay or set aside any dividends on shares of any other class or series of capital stock, except in limited circumstances. We are required to redeem all shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding on February 15, 2025 at the then stated value plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon through the day prior to such redemption. Subject to compliance with the terms of any credit agreement, we are also required to redeem all of the Series B Preferred Stock as a condition to the consummation of certain changes in control (as defined in certificate governing the Series B Preferred Stock), as well as use the net cash proceeds from certain transactions to redeem shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

    Based on the stated value of the Series B Preferred Stock as of June 30, 2021 after giving effect to the accrual of dividends, we would be required to pay quarterly cash dividends in the aggregate of $6.6 million on the Series B Preferred Stock. If not paid the dividends will accrue at a rate of 15% per annum and increase the stated value of the Series B Preferred Stock. Actual decisions regarding payment of cash dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock will be made at the time of the applicable dividend payment based upon availability of capital resources, business conditions, other cash requirements, and other relevant factors.

Deferred Taxes - COVID-19

The CARES Act was enacted on March 27, 2020, in response to the COVID-19 emergency. The CARES Act includes many measures to assist companies, including temporary changes to income and non-income-based tax laws. Some of the key income tax-related provisions of the CARES Act include:

Eliminating the 80% of taxable income limitation by allowing corporate entities to fully utilize net operating losses (“NOLs”) to offset taxable income in 2018, 2019 or 2020.

35


Allowing NOLs originating in 2018, 2019 or 2020 to be carried back five years.

Increasing the net interest expense deduction limit to 50% of adjusted taxable income from 30% for tax years beginning 1 January 2019 and 2020.

Allowing taxpayers with alternative minimum tax (“AMT”) credits to claim a refund in 2020 for the entire amount of the credit instead of recovering the credit through refunds over a period of years, as originally enacted by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”).

Payroll tax deferral.

41


IEA has also made use of the payroll deferral provision to defer the 6.2% social security tax, or approximately $13.6 million, through December 31, 2020. This amount is required to be paid at 50% on December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2022.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

    As is common in our industry, we have entered into certain off-balance sheet arrangements in the ordinary course of business.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Credit Risk

    We are subject to concentrations of credit risk related to our net receivable position with customers, which includes amounts related to billed and unbilled accounts receivable and costs and earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts net of advanced billings with the same customer. We grant credit under normal payment terms, generally without collateral, and as a result, we are subject to potential credit risk related to our customers’ ability to pay for services provided. This risk may be heightened if there is depressed economic and financial market conditions. However, we believe the concentration of credit risk related to billed and unbilled receivables and costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts is limited because of the lack of concentration and the high credit rating of our customers.

Interest Rate Risk

    Borrowings under the Third A&R Credit Agreement and certain other borrowings are at variable rates of interest and expose us to interest rate risk. If interest rates increase, our debt service obligations on the variable rate indebtedness will increase even though the amount borrowed remains the same, and our net income and cash flows, including cash available for servicing our indebtedness, will correspondingly decrease. The outstanding debt balance as of June 30, 2021 was $177.6 million. A one hundred basis point change in the LIBOR rate would increase or decrease interest expense by $1.8 million. As of June 30, 2021, we had no derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk.
Item 4. Control and Procedures

    Attached as exhibits to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are certifications of IEA’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer that are required in accordance with Rule 13a-14 of the Exchange Act of 1934. This section includes information concerning the controls and controls evaluation referred to in the certifications, and it should be read in conjunction with the certifications.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

    Our management has established and maintains a system of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, such as this Quarterly Report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms. The disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

    As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based on this evaluation, these officers have concluded that, as of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

    ThereDuring the quarter ended September 30, 2021, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting, during the quarter ended June 30, 2021, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings

For information regarding legal proceedings, see Note 7. Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1. Financial Statements of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

    At JuneSeptember 30, 2021, there have been no other material changes, except as mentioned below, from the risk factors previously disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 8, 2021, which is accessible on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov, except as described below.

Our Repurchase Program may not enhance long-term value and repurchases, if any, could increase the price and volatility of our warrants and common stock, and diminish our cash reserves.

On November 4, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a repurchase program for the Company’s publicly traded warrants to purchase common stock, which trade on the NASDAQ under the symbol IEAWW. This repurchase program allows the Company to purchase up to $25.0 million of warrants, at prevailing prices, in open market or negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions and other considerations, beginning November 11, 2021, and it will end no later than the expiration of the warrants on March 26, 2023. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to make any repurchases and it may be suspended at any time.

The timing and actual number of warrants repurchased depend on a variety of factors including price, corporate and regulatory requirements, available cash, and other market conditions. Warrant repurchases may not enhance shareholder value, as any warrants repurchased could affect the price of our warrants and common stock, increase their price volatility and could potentially reduce the market liquidity for our warrants and common stock. Additionally, repurchases under this repurchase program will diminish our cash reserves, which impacts our ability to support our operations and pursue possible future opportunities and acquisitions.

Item 5. Other Information

On November 4, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a repurchase program for the Company’s publicly traded warrants to purchase common stock, which trade on the NASDAQ under the symbol IEAWW. This repurchase program allows the Company to purchase up to $25.0 million of warrants, at prevailing prices, in open market or negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions and other considerations, beginning November 11, 2021, and it will end no later than the expiration of the warrants on March 26, 2023. This repurchase program does not obligate the Company to make any repurchases and it may be suspended at any time.
