See accompanying notes to unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of ENGlobal Corporation (which may be referred to as “ENGlobal,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, these condensed financial statements do not include all of the information or note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended December ~~25, 2021,~~31, 2022, included in the Company’s ~~2021~~2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

The condensed financial statements included herein are unaudited for the ~~three~~three- and ~~six month~~six-month periods ended July 1, 2023 and June 25, 2022, ~~and June 26, 2021,~~ and in the case of the condensed balance sheet as of December ~~25, 2021~~31, 2022 have been derived from the audited financial statements of the Company. These financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the results for the periods presented.

The Company has assessed subsequent events through the date of filing of these condensed financial statements with the SEC and believes that the disclosures made herein are adequate to make the information presented herein not misleading.

We had no items of other comprehensive income in any period presented; therefore, no other components of comprehensive income are presented.

For our fiscal year ~~2022, our first, second, and third~~2023, all four quarters will be comprised of 13 weeks ~~each, and our fourth quarter will be comprised of 14 weeks.~~each.

The Company adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) as of January 1, 2023. We adopted the standard using a modified retrospective approach which did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Revenue Recognition – Our revenue is comprised of engineering, procurement and construction management services and sales of fabricated systems and integrated control systems that we design and assemble. The majority of our services are provided under time-and-material contracts. Some time-and-material contracts may have limits. Revenue is not recognized over these limits until authorization by the client has been received.

A majority of sales of fabrication and assembled systems are under fixed-price contracts. We account for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable.

We generally recognize revenue over time as we perform because of continuous transfer of control to the customer. Our customer typically controls the work in process as evidenced either by contractual termination clauses or by our rights to payment for work performed to date plus a reasonable profit to deliver products or services that do not have an alternative use to the Company. The selection of the method to measure progress towards completion requires judgment and is based on the nature of the products or service to be provided, which measures the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation. We generally use the cost-to-cost method on the labor portion of a project for revenue recognition to measure progress of our contracts because it best depicts the transfer of control to the customer which occurs as we consume the materials on the contracts. Therefore, revenues and estimated profits are recorded proportionally as labor costs are incurred.

Under the typical payment terms of our fixed-price contracts, the customer pays us progress payments. These progress payments are based on quantifiable measures of performance or on the achievement of specified events or milestones. The customer may retain a small portion of the contract price until completion of the contract. Revenue recognized in excess of billings is recorded as a contract asset on the balance sheet. Amounts billed and due from our customers are classified as receivables on the balance sheet. The portion of the payments retained by the customer until final contract settlement is not considered a significant financing component because the intent is to protect the customer should we fail to adequately complete some or all of our obligations under the contract. For some contracts we may receive advance payments from the customer. We record a liability for these advance payments in contract liabilities on the balance sheet. The advance payment typically is not considered a significant financing component because it is used to meet working capital demand that can be higher in the early stages of a contract and to protect us from the other party failing to adequately complete some or all of its obligations under the contract.

To determine proper revenue recognition for contracts, we evaluate whether two or more contracts should be combined and accounted for as one single performance obligation or whether a single contract should be accounted for as more than one performance obligation. This evaluation requires significant judgment and the decision to combine a group of contracts or separate a single contract into multiple performance obligations could change the amount of revenue and profit recorded in a given period. For most of our contracts, we provide a significant service of integrating a complex set of tasks and components into a single project. Hence, the entire contract is accounted for as one performance obligation. Less commonly, we may provide distinct goods or services within a contract in which case we separate the contract into more than one performance obligation. If a contract is separated into more than one performance obligation, we allocate the total transaction price to each performance obligation in an amount based on the estimated relative standalone selling price of the promised goods or services underlying each performance obligation and use the expected cost plus margin approach to estimate the standalone selling price of each performance obligation. Due to the nature of the work required to be performed on many of our performance obligations, the estimation of total revenue and cost at completion is complex, subject to variables and requires significant judgment. We estimate variable consideration at the most likely amount to which we expect to be entitled. We include estimated amounts in the 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. Our estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price are based largely on an assessment of our anticipated performance and all information (historical, current and forecasted) that is reasonably available to us.

Contracts are often modified to account for changes in contract specifications and requirements. We consider contract modifications to exist when the modification either creates new or changes the existing enforceable rights and obligations. Most of our contract modifications are for goods or services that are not distinct from the existing contract due to the significant integration service provided in the context of the contract and are accounted for as if they were part of that existing contract. The effect of a contract modification on the transaction price and our measure of progress for the performance obligation to which it relates, is recognized as an adjustment to revenue (either as an increase or a reduction of revenue) on a cumulative catch-up basis.

We have a standard, monthly process in which management reviews the progress and execution of our performance obligations. As part of this process, management reviews information including, but not limited to, any outstanding key contract matters, progress towards completion and the related program schedule, identified risks and opportunities and the related changes in estimates of revenues and costs. The risks and opportunities include management’s judgment about the ability and cost to achieve the schedule, technical requirements, and other contractual requirements. Management must make assumptions and estimates regarding labor productivity and availability, the complexity of the work to be performed, the availability of materials, the length of time to complete the performance obligation, execution by our subcontractors, the availability and timing of funding from our customer and overhead cost rates, among other variables.

Based on this analysis, any adjustments to revenue, operating costs and the related impact to operating income are recognized as necessary in the period they become known. These adjustments may result from positive performance and may result in an increase in operating income during the performance of individual performance obligations if we determine we will be successful in mitigating risks surrounding the technical, schedule and cost aspects of those performance obligations or realizing related opportunities. When estimates of total costs to be incurred exceed total estimates to be earned, a provision for the entire loss on the performance obligation is recognized in the period the loss becomes known. Likewise, these adjustments may result in a decrease in operating income if we determine we will not be successful in mitigating these risks or realizing related opportunities. Changes in estimates of net revenue, operating costs and the related impact to operating income are recognized monthly on a cumulative catch-up basis, which recognizes in the current period the cumulative effect of the changes on current and prior periods based on a performance obligation’s percentage of completion. A significant change in one or more of these estimates could affect the profitability of one or more of our performance obligations.

Our contract assets consist of unbilled amounts typically resulting from sales under long-term contracts when the cost-to-cost method of revenue recognition is utilized and revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer. Our contract liabilities consist of advance payments and billings in excess of costs incurred.

Costs, estimated earnings and billings on uncompleted contracts consisted of the following (dollars in thousands):

~~Set forth below are certain of the material terms of the Revolving Credit Facility:~~

Our segments are strategic business units that offer our services and products to customers in their respective industry segments. The operating performance of our segments is regularly reviewed with operational leaders in charge of these segments, the ~~chief executive officer~~Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), the ~~chief financial officer~~Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) and others. This group represents the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) for ENGlobal.

We have identified four strategic markets where we have a long history of delivering project solutions and can provide complete project execution. These four targeted markets include: (i) Energy & Renewables, (ii) Automation, (iii) Oil, Gas, and Petrochemicals, and (iv) Government Services.

Within the Energy & Renewables group, our focus is to design and build production facilities for hydrogen and associated products, together with converting existing production facilities to produce products from renewable feedstock sources. These projects often utilize technologies that are more fuel efficient, and therefore reduce the associated carbon footprint of the facility. Our scope of work on these projects will typically include front-end development, engineering, procurement, mechanical fabrication, automation and commissioning services, and may be performed in conjunction with a construction partner.

Our Automation group provides the design and programming of automated control systems as well as designs, fabricates, integrates and commissions modular systems that include remote instrumentation control stations, on-line process analytical data, continuous emission monitoring, and electric power distribution. Often these packaged systems are housed in a fabricated metal enclosure, modular building or freestanding metal rack, which are commonly included in our scope of work. We provide automation engineering, procurement, fabrication, systems integration, programing and on-site commissioning services to our clients for both new and existing facilities.

Our Oil, Gas, and Petrochemicals group focuses on providing engineering, procurement, construction management, and automation services as well as fabricated products to downstream refineries and petrochemical facilities as well as midstream pipeline, storage and other transportation related companies. These services are often applied to small capital improvement and maintenance projects within refineries and petrochemical facilities.

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under ASC 740-270 we estimate an annual effective tax rate based on year-to-date operating results and our projection of operating results for the remainder of the year. We apply this annual effective tax rate to the year-to-date operating results. If our actual results differ from the estimated annual projection, our estimated annual effective tax rate can change affecting the tax expense for successive interim results as well as the estimated annual tax expense results. Certain states are not included in the calculation of the estimated annual effective tax rate because the underlying basis for the tax is related to revenues and not taxable income. Amounts for Texas margin taxes are reported as income tax expense.

The Company applies a more likely than not recognition threshold for all tax uncertainties. The FASB guidance for uncertain tax positions only allows the recognition of those tax benefits, based on their technical merits that are greater than 50 percent likelihood of being sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. Management has reviewed the Company’s tax positions and determined there are no uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the financial statements. U.S. federal tax returns prior to ~~2017~~2018 and Texas margins tax returns prior to 2017 are closed. Generally, the applicable statues of limitations are three to four years from their filings.

The Company recorded income tax expense of $22 thousand for the three months ended July 1, 2023 as compared to income tax benefit of $56 thousand for the three months ended June 25, ~~2022 as compared to income tax expense of $23 thousand for the three months ended June 26, 2021.~~2022. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended ~~June 25, 2022~~July 1, 2023 was ~~3.5%~~(0.5)% as compared to ~~(0.5)%~~3.5% for the three months ended June ~~26, 2021.~~25, 2022. The Company recorded income tax expense of $44 thousand for the six months ended July 1, 2023 as compared to $22 thousand for the six months ended June 25, ~~2022 as compared to income tax expense of $46 thousand for the six months ended June 26, 2021.~~2022. The effective income tax rate for the six months ended July 1, 2023 and June 25, 2022 was (0.4)% ~~as compared to (1.1)% for the six months ended June 26, 2021.~~. The effective tax rate differed from the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the effect of the valuation allowances related to the expected unrealized deferred tax asset generated by the current year benefit.

From time to time, ENGlobal or one or more of its subsidiaries is involved in various legal proceedings or is subject to claims that arise in the ordinary course of business alleging, among other things, claims of breach of contract or negligence in connection with the performance or delivery of goods and/or services. The outcome of any such claims or proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty. Management is not aware of any pending or threatened lawsuits or proceedings that are expected to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

We carry a broad range of insurance coverage, including general and business automobile liability, commercial property, professional errors and omissions, workers’ compensation insurance, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and a general umbrella policy, all with standard self-insured retentions/deductibles. We also provide health insurance to our employees (including vision and dental) which is partially self-funded for these claims. Provisions for expected future payments are accrued based on our experience, and specific stop loss levels provide protection for the Company. We believe we have adequate reserves for the self-funded portion of our insurance policies. We are not aware of any material litigation or claims that are not covered by these policies or which are likely to materially exceed the Company’s insurance limits.

The Company leases land, office and shop space, and equipment. Arrangements are assessed at inception to determine if a lease exists and, with the adoption of ASC 842, “Leases,” right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Because the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate of return, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at the inception of a lease to calculate the present value of lease payments. The Company has elected to apply the short-term lease exception for all asset classes, excluding lease liabilities from the balance sheet and recognizing the lease payments in the period they are incurred.

Pursuant to the CARES Act, the Company is eligible for an employee retention credit subject to certain criteria. Since there is no US GAAP guidance for for-profit business entities that receive government assistance that is not in the form of a loan, an income tax credit or revenue from a contract with a customer, we determined the appropriate accounting treatment by analogy to other guidance. We accounted for the employee retention credit by analogy to International Accounting Standards (IAS) 20, Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance, of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

Under an IAS 20 analogy, a business entity would recognize the employee retention credit on a systematic basis over the periods in which the entity recognizes the payroll expenses for which the grant (i.e., tax credit) is intended to compensate when there is reasonable assurance (i.e., it is probable) that the entity will comply with any conditions attached to the grant and the grant (i.e., tax credit) will be received.

We have accounted for the $1.7 million and $1.4 million employee retention credits in the first and third quarters of 2021, respectively, as other income on the ~~Statement~~statement of ~~Operations~~operations and as a receivable on the ~~Balance Sheet. During~~balance sheet. As of July 1, 2023, we have received a full refund for the ~~first~~third quarter ~~of 2022, we received~~and a partial refund for the ~~2021~~ first quarter employee retention credits. The remaining unpaid employee retention credit of $0.5 million is accounted for ~~our ENGlobal U.S., Inc. subsidiary.~~as a receivable on the balance sheet.

On January 29, 2021, the Company entered into an at market issuance sales agreement (the “At Market Issuance Sales Agreement”) with B. Riley Securities, Inc. (“B. Riley”) pursuant to which the Company could offer and sell shares of the Company’s common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $25 million to or through B. Riley, as sales agent, from time to time, in an “at the market offering”. Under the At Market Issuance Sales Agreement, the Company paid B. Riley an aggregate commission of 3% of the gross sales price per share of common stock sold under the agreement. The Company was not obligated to make any sales under the At Market Issuance Sales Agreement. In April 2021, 400,538 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued and sold pursuant to the At Market Issuance Sales Agreement for net proceeds of approximately $1.4 million. On January 7, 2022, the At Market Issuance Sales Agreement was terminated pursuant to its terms.

On June 1, 2021, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company issued and sold an aggregate of 7,142,859 shares of the Company’s common stock to certain institutional investors at an offering price of $2.80 per share in a registered direct offering priced at-the-market under NASDAQ rules for net proceeds of approximately $18.7 million after deducting the fees of A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners, the placement agent, and related offering expenses of approximately $1.3 million.

The Company is not obligated to make any sales under the agreement and any determination by the Company to do so will be dependent, among other things, on market conditions and the Company’s capital raising needs. ~~Upon~~

On February 1, 2023, we entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “RDO Purchase Agreement”) providing for the ~~filing with~~sale and issuance by the ~~SEC on March 11, 2022~~Company to a single institutional investor of 3,971,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s ~~Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 25, 2021, the Company’s~~common stock at an offering price of $0.85 per Share in a registered direct offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 ~~(File No. 333-252572), including~~filed with the ~~accompanying prospectus~~SEC on January 29, 2021 (the “Registration Statement”).

On May 18, 2022, ENG Calvert Holdings Ltd. (the “Purchaser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, completed the acquisition of Calvert Group Belgium NV (“Calvert”), a business that licenses small-scale gas to liquids (“GTL”) technology for flare gas and stranded gas applications for specific territories including the Middle East and North Africa. The Company expects to utilize Calvert’s basic designs incorporating the GTL technology into small scale GTL plants to be manufactured by the Company in the United States and subsequently shipped internationally.

Pursuant to the accounting guidance in ASC 805, we determined that the acquisition of Calvert did not meet the criteria necessary to constitute a business combination and was accounted for as an asset acquisition which occurs when substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identified assets. The determination was based on the gross fair value of the acquisition being concentrated in the license agreement acquired.

~~The consideration transferred on the acquisition date included $0.8 million~~positive cash ~~net of cash acquired, and $0.5 million in common stock issued. In addition,~~flows from operating activities, we may ~~pay up~~be required to approximately $1.4 million in cash and issue approximately $0.6 million in common stock if certain benchmarks are achieved. The Company capitalized $0.1 million in costs associated with the transaction.

~~The Company has recognized a $2.8 million intangible asset for the license acquired.~~significantly curtail or cease our operations.

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

The Company measures the ~~next five years based on the achievement of certain revenue benchmarks. The purchase price includes the original estimated~~ fair value of its warrants to purchase up to 3,971,000 shares of the ~~contingent consideration recorded at~~Company’s common stock issued in connection with the ~~present value~~RDO Purchase Agreement using a Black-Scholes model, which requires the use of ~~approximately $1.5 million.~~several inputs, including the underlying stock price, exercise price, risk free rate, expected volatility, and time to expiration.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Certain information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as other written and oral statements made or incorporated by reference from time to time by the Company and its representatives in other reports, filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), press releases, conferences or otherwise, may be deemed to be forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). This information includes, without limitation, statements concerning the Company’s future financial position and results of operations, planned capital expenditures, business strategy and other plans for future operations, the future mix of revenues and business, customer retention, project reversals, commitments and contingent liabilities, future demand and industry conditions. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Generally, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “may” and similar expressions, identify forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. Actual results could differ materially from the results described in the forward-looking statements due to the risks and uncertainties set forth under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the specific risk factors identified under Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December ~~25, 2021,~~31, 2022, and those described from time to time in our future reports filed with the SEC.

The following discussion is qualified in its entirety by, and should be read in conjunction with, the Company’s financial statements, including the notes thereto, included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December ~~25, 2021.~~31, 2022.

ENGlobal Corporation (which may be referred to as “ENGlobal,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”), incorporated in the State of Nevada in June 1994, is a ~~leading~~ provider of innovative, delivered project solutions primarily to the energy industry. We deliver these solutions to our clients by combining our vertically-integrated engineering and professional project execution services with our automation and systems integration expertise and fabrication capabilities. We believe our vertically-integrated strategy allows us to differentiate our company from most of our competitors as a full-service provider, thereby reducing our clients’ dependency on and coordination of multiple vendors and improving control over their project costs and schedules. Our strategy and positioning has also allowed the Company to pursue larger scopes of work centered around many different types of modularized engineered systems.

We focus on four strategic markets where we have a long history of delivering project solutions and can provide complete project execution and have focused our business development teams on communicating these offerings to their clients. These four targeted markets include: (i) ~~Energy &~~ Renewables, (ii) Automation, (iii) Oil, Gas, and Petrochemicals, and (iv) Government Services.

We ~~continue to be mindful of our overhead structure. We~~ have made significant ~~investments~~reductions in ~~key~~our overhead structure as part of the internal business ~~development~~reorganization that we started in the first quarter of 2023. These cost reductions were primarily in headcount across all segments to better align the number of administrative staff needed to support our current volume of work and ~~other essential personnel, product developments and new facilities and equipment, which have all negatively impacted~~re-organize our ~~selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense.~~corporate structure.

We recognize that the level of~~evaluate our SG&A ~~is greater than~~headcount and will reduce it ~~could be for~~as necessary to better align our costs with the volume of the business. We have also started efforts to reduce our rent and insurance costs to bring our total SG&A costs in line with that of a company our ~~size; however, we have maintained our overhead structure in anticipation of higher revenue levels.~~size.

Our Board of Directors continues to review strategic transactions, which could include strategic acquisitions, mergers, reverse mergers, the issuance or buyback of public shares, or the purchase or sale of specific assets, in addition to other potential actions aimed at increasing shareholder value. The Company does not intend to disclose or comment on developments related to its review unless and until the Board has approved a specific transaction or otherwise determined that further disclosure is appropriate. There can be no assurance that the Board’s strategic review will result in any transaction, or any assurance as to its outcome or timing.

~~On March 11, 2020,~~Our recurring losses, negative cash flows from operating activities, need for additional financing and the ~~World Health Organization declared that the worldwide spread and severity of a new coronavirus, referred~~uncertainties surrounding our ability to ~~as COVID-19, was severe enough~~obtain such financing, raise substantial doubt about our ability to ~~be characterized~~continue as a ~~pandemic.

We intend to raise funds through various potential sources, such as equity or debt financings; however, we can provide no assurance that such financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate financing is not available or we do not achieve profitability and ~~natural gas. In response, companies within the energy industry (including~~positive cash flows from operating activities, we may be required to significantly curtail or cease our customers) announced capital spending cuts which, in turn, resulted in a decrease in new project awards. As a result, we have not been successful in replacing our backlog as quickly as it has been converted to revenues,operations, and our ~~backlog has decreased by approximately $46.4 million from $59.2 million at December 28, 2019 to $12.8 million as of December 25, 2021.~~

During the fourth quarter of 2021 and into the first quarter of 2022, many of our clients returned to their offices and project development began to return. As a result, we began spending a significant amount of man hours bidding many of these new and resurrected projects for our clients. Some of these projects have been awarded to us during the first half of 2022 increasing our backlog by approximately $6.2 million during the first half of 2022 to $19.0 million as of June 25, 2022. We believe we have many potential opportunities in our sales pipeline that could replace a significant portion of the backlog reduction since the end of 2019. We believe our backlog and our opportunity pipeline is sufficient to keep a significant portion of our workforce productive in the near term.

~~For additional information, see Part II. Item 1A “Risk Factors.”~~business would be jeopardized.

Our critical accounting policies are further disclosed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in our ~~2021~~2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

~~Goodwill~~ - Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of acquisitions over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is not amortized but rather is tested and assessed for impairment annually, or more frequently if certain events or changes in circumstance indicate the carrying amount may exceed fair value. The annual test for goodwill impairment is performed in the fourth quarter of each year.

The Company compares its fair value of a reporting unit and the carrying value of the reporting unit to measure goodwill impairment. Fair value was determined by applying a historical earnings multiple times the cash flow of the operating unit after allocation of certain corporate overhead. Estimating the cash flow of the operating unit requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including revenue growth rates, operating margins, discount rates and future market conditions, among others. It is possible that changes in market conditions, economy, facts, circumstances, judgments and assumptions used in estimating the fair value could change, resulting in possible impairments of goodwill in the future.

~~Contingent consideration~~ – As part of the asset acquisition, the Company recognized the fair value of the contingent consideration based on estimates and assumtions by management. It is possible that changes in market conditions, economy, facts, circumstances, judgments and assumptions used in estimating the fair value could change, resulting in possible changes in the costs basis of the assets and liabilities recognized.

~~Employee retention credit~~ - Since there is no US GAAP guidance for for-profit business entities that receive government assistance that is not in the form of a loan, an income tax credit or revenue from a contract with a customer, we determined the appropriate accounting treatment by analogy to other guidance. We accounted for the employee retention credit by analogy to International Accounting Standards (IAS) 20, Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance, of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

Under an IAS 20 analogy, a business entity would recognize the credit on a systematic basis over the periods in which the entity recognizes the payroll expenses for which the grant (i.e., tax credit) is intended to compensate when there is reasonable assurance (i.e., it is probable) that the entity will comply with any conditions attached to the grant and the grant (i.e., tax credit) will be received.

In the course of providing our time-and-material services, we routinely provide materials and equipment and may provide construction management services on a subcontractor basis. Generally, these materials, equipment and subcontractor costs are passed through to our clients and reimbursed, along with small handling fees, which in general are at margins lower than those of our normal core business. In accordance with industry practice and generally accepted accounting principles, all such costs and fees are included in revenue. The material purchases and the use of subcontractor services can vary significantly from quarter to quarter; therefore, changes in revenue and gross profit, SG&A expense and operating income as a percentage of revenue may not be indicative of the Company’s core business trends.

Segment operating SG&A expense includes management and staff compensation, office costs such as rents and utilities, depreciation, amortization, travel, and other expenses generally unrelated to specific client contracts, but directly related to the support of a segment’s operations. Corporate SG&A expenses include finance, accounting, human resources, business development, legal and information technology which are unrelated to specific projects but which are incurred to support the Company’s activities.

Net Income (Loss) – Net loss for the three months ended July 1, 2023 was $4.3 million, or a $2.8 million increase from a net loss of $1.5 million for the three months ended June ~~26, 2021.~~25, 2022, primarily as a result of inefficient execution of projects which resulted in an increased gross loss margin, and increased selling, general, and administrative expense.

~~We recorded income tax expense~~Net loss for the six months ended July 1, 2023 was $10.7 million, or a $5.5 million increase from net loss of ~~$22 thousand~~$5.2 million for the six months ended June 25, 2022, ~~compared to income tax expense of $46 thousand for the six months ended June 26, 2021.~~

~~Net Income (Loss) –~~ Net loss for the three months ended June 25, 2022 was $1.5 million, or a $2.8 million decrease from net loss of $4.3 million for the three months ended June 26, 2021, primarily as a result of an increase in revenue and gross profit and increased utilitization of personnel on project awards within our Commercial segment.

~~Net loss for the six months ended June 25, 2022 was $5.2 million, or a $0.9 million increase from net loss of $4.2 million for the six months ended June 26, 2021,~~ primarily as a result of a ~~decrease in revenue and gross profit, increased business development costs within our Commercial segment, in addition to the employee retention credit recorded~~$1.6 million loss in the ~~first quarter~~construction and field services business, $1.0 million of ~~2021 with no comparable occurrence~~underutilized personnel expense, a $2.2 million increase in ~~2022.~~bad debt reserve, and increased facility costs of $0.3 million primarily related to our Brookshire fabrication shop.

The Company defines liquidity as its ability to pay its liabilities as they become due, fund business operations and meet monetary contractual obligations. Our primary sources of liquidity are cash on hand, internally generated funds, sales of common stock pursuant to the ATM Agreement (defined below), and borrowings under the ~~Revolving~~ Credit ~~Facility.~~Agreement which matures on June 15, 2024. We had cash of approximately ~~$14.1~~$0.8 million at ~~June 25, 2022~~July 1, 2023 and ~~$19.2~~$3.5 million at December ~~25, 2021.~~31, 2022. Our working capital as of ~~June 25, 2022~~July 1, 2023 was ~~$19.4~~$0.1 million versus ~~$26.3~~$7.1 million as of December ~~25, 2021.~~31, 2022.

On January 11, 2022, we entered into a sales agreement (the “ATM Agreement”) with Lake Street Capital Markets, LLC (“Lake Street”) pursuant to which we may offer and sell shares of ~~our~~the Company’s common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $30 million to or through Lake Street, as sales agent, from time to time, in an “at the market offering”. The Company is not obligated to make any sales under the agreement and any determination by the Company to do so will be dependent, among other things, on market conditions and the Company’s capital raising needs. ~~Upon the filing with the SEC on March 11, 2022 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 25, 2021, our~~The Company’s registration statement on Form S-3 ~~(File No. 333-252572),~~(the “Registration Statement”) filed with the SEC on January 29, 2021, including the accompanying prospectus and related prospectus supplements related to the “at the market offering”, ~~became~~is subject to the provisions of General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3, which provides that we may not sell securities in a public primary offering with a value exceeding one-third of our public float in any twelve-month period unless our public float is at least $75 million. As of ~~March 7, 2022,~~June 12, 2023, the Company’s public float (i.e., the aggregate market value of its outstanding equity securities held by non-affiliates) was approximately ~~$56.1~~$14.4 million, based on the closing price per share of ~~our~~the Company’s common stock as reported on the Nasdaq Capital Market on ~~March 7, 2022,~~June 12, 2023, as calculated in accordance with General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3. In addition, during the 12 calendar month period that ends on the date of the filing of this Report, we had offered and sold approximately $3.4 million of our common stock pursuant to the Registration Statement. If our public float meets or exceeds $75 million at any time, we will no longer be subject to the restrictions set forth in General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3, at least until the filing of our next Section 10(a)(3) update as required under the Securities Act.

On February 1, 2023, we entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “RDO Purchase Agreement”) providing for the sale and issuance by the Company to a single institutional investor of 3,971,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, at an offering price of $0.85 per Share in a registered direct offering pursuant to the Registration Statement. Concurrently with the sale of the Shares and pursuant to the RDO Purchase Agreement, the Company also sold and issued in a private placement, for no additional consideration to the investor, warrants to purchase up to 3,971,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrants”). The gross proceeds to the Company from the offerings were approximately $3.4 million before deducting the placement agent’s fees and related offering expenses, and excluding the proceeds, if any, from the exercise of the Warrants. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the offering for working capital and general corporate purposes. The sale of the Shares pursuant to the RDO Purchase Agreement has reduced the amount of securities that we may sell in a primary offering pursuant to the Registration Statement. Our recurring losses, negative cash flows from operating activities, need for additional financing and the uncertainties surrounding our ability to obtain such financing, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, as discussed in Part II, Item 8, Note 1. We ~~believe our~~have limited cash on hand ~~internally generated funds, availability under the Revolving Credit Facility,~~ and ~~sales of common stock pursuant to the ATM Agreement, along with other~~will need additional working capital ~~will be sufficient~~ to fund our ~~current~~planned operations. We are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure additional capital to fund our planned operations or failing to profitably operate the business. We intend to raise funds through various potential sources, such as equity or debt financings; however, we can provide no assurance that such financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate financing is not available or we do not achieve profitability and positive cash flows from operating activities, we may be required to significantly curtail or cease our operations, and ~~expected activity for the next twelve months.~~our business would be jeopardized.

Cash and the availability of cash could be materially restricted if (1) outstanding invoices billed are not collected or are not collected in a timely manner, (2) circumstances prevent the timely internal processing of invoices, (3) we lose one or more of our major customers or our major customers significantly reduce the amount of work requested from us, (4) we are unable to win new projects that we can perform on a profitable basis or (5) we are unable to reverse our use of cash to fund losses. If any such event occurs, we would be forced to consider alternative financing options.

Operating activities used $5.6 million of cash for the six months ended July 1, 2023. The primary drivers of our cash used in operations for the six months ended July 1, 2023 were our operating loss of $10.7 million, a decrease in trade receivables of $1.1 million, and a decrease of other current liabilities of $0.5 million, partially offset by cash provided from an increase in trade payables of $2.3 million, a decrease in other current assets of $2.1 million, a decrease in contract assets net of contract liabilities of $1.3 million, an increase in accrued compensation and benefits of $0.3 million, and $0.7 million from other components of working capital.

Operating activities used $4.0 million of cash for the six months ended June 25, ~~2022 and used $4.6 million of cash for the six months ended June 26, 2021.~~2022. The primary drivers of our cash used in operations for the six months ended June 25, 2022 were our net loss of $5.2 million mainly as a result of a decrease in revenue and gross profit, along with increased business development costs within our Commercial segment, an increase in contract assets net of contract liabilities of $1.2 million, and a decrease of other current liabilities and income tax payable of $0.5 million, partially offset by cash provided from a decrease in accrued compensation and benefits of $0.1 million, a decrease of trade payables of $0.3 million, a decrease in trade receivables of $0.4 million, a decrease in other current assets of $1.6 million, and $0.5 million from other components of working capital.

Investing activities used cash of $0.2 million for the six months ended July 1, 2023 primarily for the purchase of personal property and equipment.

Investing activities used cash of $1.0 million for the six months ended June 25, 2022 primarily related to the Calvert acquisition in addition to the purchase of personal property and ~~equipment and $88 thousand for the six months ended June 26, 2021 for the purchase of personal property and~~ equipment.

Financing activities provided $3.0 million of cash for the six months ended July 1, 2023 primarily due to proceeds received from the issuance of common stock under the RDO Purchase Agreement, net of issuance costs, the Credit Agreement entered into during the second quarter of 2023, and invoices funded under the Priority Agreement, partially offset by cash used for payments for our finance leases and payments under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility was repaid during the second quarter of 2023.

Financing activities used $0.1 million of cash for the six months ended June 25, 2022 primarily for costs associated with the ATM Agreement and payments for our finance leases, partially offset by proceeds received from the Revolving Credit Facility. Financing activities provided cash of $20.1 million for the six months ended June 26, 2021 primarily due to sales of common stock under the ATM Agreement and Purchase Agreement, interest on the PPP Loan (defined below), and proceeds received from the Revolving Credit Facility partially offset by the interest incurred on our finance leases. On April 13, 2020, we obtained a $4.9 million loan (the “PPP Loan”) pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program under Division A, Title I of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, which was forgiven in full during 2021.

The Company is obligated to make future cash payments under the ~~Revolving~~ Credit ~~Facility,~~Agreement, operating leases, finance leases, and other liabilities. Amounts below are undiscounted and may differ from balances reflected on the financial statements. The table below sets forth certain information about our contractual obligations as of ~~June 25, 2022~~July 1, 2023 (in thousands):

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures of a registrant designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the registrant in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is properly recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include processes to accumulate and evaluate relevant information and communicate such information to a registrant’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of ~~June 25, 2022,~~July 1, 2023, as required by Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. Based on the evaluation described above, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of ~~June 25, 2022,~~July 1, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective insofar as they are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and 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.

No changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the three months ended ~~June 25, 2022,~~July 1, 2023, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

From time to time, ENGlobal or one or more of its subsidiaries may be involved in various legal proceedings or may be subject to claims that arise in the ordinary course of business alleging, among other things, claims of breach of contract or negligence in connection with the performance or delivery of goods and/or services. The outcome of any such claims or proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty. As of the date of this filing, management is not aware of any such claims against the Company or any subsidiary business entity.

In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December ~~25, 2021,~~31, 2022, which outline factors that could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results, and the additional risk factors below. These risks are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial conditions or operating results.

Substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern exists. Our audited financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2022 were prepared on the assumption that we would continue as a going concern. Those financial statements and the accompanying opinion of our auditor expressed a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Those audited financial statements did not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our recurring losses, negative cash flows from operating activities, need for additional financing and the uncertainties surrounding our ability to obtain such financing, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We have limited cash on hand and will need additional working capital to fund our planned operations. We are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure additional capital to fund our planned operations or failing to profitably operate the business. We intend to raise funds through various potential sources, such as equity or debt financings; however, we can provide no assurance that such financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate financing is not available or we do not achieve profitability and positive cash flows from operating activities, we may be required to significantly curtail or cease our operations, and our business would be jeopardized.

Our ability to continue as a going concern is also subject to, among other factors, our ability to collect receivables from our clients when due and invoice our customers in a timely manner. If we are not able collect our receivables when due from our clients, our cash flow will be negatively impacted which could lead to us not being able to meet our current obligations.

We do not have material borrowing capacity under our Credit Agreement, which matures on June 15, 2024, which may limit our ability to finance operations or engage in other business activities, which could have a material impact on our financial condition.As of July 1, 2023, we have outstanding borrowings of $1.0 million under the Credit Agreement, which matures on June 15, 2024. The terms of the Credit Agreement allow for an additional term loan of $0.3 million at the lender’s discretion. The limited availability under the Credit Agreement may limit our ability to finance operations or engage in other business activities, which could have a material impact on our financial condition.

The COVID–19 pandemic has adversely affected and could continue to adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our business is dependent upon the willingness and ability of our customers to conduct transactions with us. The COVID–19 pandemic has caused severe disruptions in the worldwide economy, including the global demand for oil and natural gas. In response, companies within the energy industry (including our customers) announced capital spending cuts which, in turn, resulted in a decrease in new project awards and/or adjustments, reductions, suspensions, cancellations or payment defaults with respect to existing project awards. The prolonged nature of the COVID–19 pandemic has resulted, and may continue to result, in a significant decrease in business and/or has caused, and may in the future cause, our customers to be unable to meet existing payment or other obligations to us, particularly in the event of a ~~spread~~resurgence of COVID–19 in our market areas. The COVID–19 pandemic may also negatively impact the availability of our key personnel necessary to conduct our business as well as the business and operations of third-party service providers who perform critical services for our business. Because the severity, magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its economic consequences are uncertain, rapidly changing and difficult to predict, the impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations remains uncertain and difficult to predict. If COVID–19 ~~continues to spread~~resurgences or if the response to contain the COVID-19 pandemic is unsuccessful, we could experience a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

~~Economic downturns and the volatility and level of oil and natural gas prices could have a negative impact on our businesses.~~ Demand for the services offered by us has been and is expected to continue to be, subject to significant fluctuations due to a variety of factors beyond our control, including demand for engineering services in the petroleum refining, petroleum chemical and pipeline industries and in other industries that we provide services to. During economic downturns in these industries, our customers’ need to engage us may decline significantly and projects may be delayed or cancelled. We cannot predict how long the current economic downturn will last or how long the price of oil will remain relatively low. However, these factors can cause our profitability to decline significantly. Our clients’ willingness to undertake these activities depends largely on the following factors:

Anticipated future prices for oil and natural gas are a primary factor affecting spending by our clients. Historically, the markets for oil and natural gas have been volatile and lower prices or volatility in prices for oil and natural gas typically decreases spending by our clients, which can cause rapid and material declines in demand for our services and in the prices we are able to charge for our services. Further, a sustained period of lower prices or volatility in prices for oil and natural gas can exacerbate the potential for cancellations and adjustments to our backlog from our clients in the oil and natural gas industry. The February 2022 invasion of Ukraine by Russia is an ongoing conflict. As a result of the invasion, certain events are beginning to effect the global and United States economy, including increased inflation, substantial increases in the prices of oil and gas, large Western companies ceasing to do business in Russia and uncertain capital markets with declines in the leading market indexes. The duration of this war and its impact on our business are uncertain, but it is likely to continue causing disruption and instability which may lead to additional volatility in prices for oil and natural gas.

Our backlog has declined significantly due to the COVID-19 pandemic and is subject to unexpected adjustments and cancellations and is, therefore, an uncertain indicator of our future revenue or earnings. Our backlog has declined significantly due to the COVID-19 pandemic because we have not been successful in replacing our backlog as quickly as it has been converted to revenues due to inefficiencies and complications resulting from many of our clients’ remote working conditions combined with the uncertainty of new project necessity and funding caused by COVID-19 related disruptions that have led to delays in project awards. Further, the COVID-19 pandemic has affected our ability to make business development contacts with customers. As a result, our backlog has decreased by approximately $46.4 million from $59.2 million at December 28, 2019 to $12.8 million as of December 25, 2021. During the first half of 2022, however, our backlog increased by approximately $6.2 million to $19.0 million as of June 25, 2022 as a result of our clients returning to their offices and project investment decisions being made again. We expect the majority of our backlog to be completed within 12 months. While we believe our backlog is sufficient to keep a significant portion of our workforce productive in the near term, it may not be at our current operating levels. We cannot assure investors that we will be successful in replacing our backlog as quickly as it has been converted to revenues, which will reduce future revenue and profits and impact our financial performance. In addition, we cannot assure investors that the revenue projected in our backlog will be realized or, if realized, will result in profits. Projects currently in our backlog may be canceled or may remain in our backlog for an extended period of time prior to project execution and, once project execution begins, it may occur unevenly over the current and multiple future periods. In addition, project terminations, suspensions or reductions in scope occur from time to time with respect to contracts reflected in our backlog, reducing the revenue and profit we actually receive from contracts reflected in our backlog. Future project cancellations and scope adjustments could further reduce the dollar amount of our backlog in addition to the revenue and profits that we actually earn. The potential for project cancellations, terminations, suspensions or reductions in scope and adjustments to our backlog are exacerbated by economic conditions, particularly in the energy industry which is experiencing volatility in oil prices since the beginning of 2020 due to concerns about the COVID–19 pandemic and its impact on the worldwide economy and global demand for oil and more recently as a result of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. We are unable to predict when market conditions may improve and worsening overall market conditions could result in further declines in our backlog.

If we are unable to collect our receivables, our results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected. Our business depends on our ability to successfully obtain payment from our clients of the amounts they owe us for work performed and materials supplied. In the ordinary course of business, we extend unsecured credit to our customers. We may also agree to allow our customers to defer payment on projects until certain milestones have been met or until the projects are substantially completed, and customers typically withhold some portion of amounts due to us as retainage. As of ~~June 25, 2022~~July 1, 2023, we had ~~one project~~projects that ~~had $1.3~~totaled less than $0.1 million in retainage. We bear the risk that our clients will pay us late or not at all. Though we evaluate and attempt to monitor our clients’ financial condition, there is no guarantee that we will accurately assess their creditworthiness. To the extent the credit quality of our clients deteriorates or our clients seek bankruptcy protection, our ability to collect receivables and our results of operations could be adversely affected. Even if our clients are credit-worthy, they may delay payments in an effort to manage their cash flow. Financial difficulties or business failure experienced by one or more of our major customers has had and could, in the future, continue to have a material adverse effect on both our ability to collect receivables and our results of operations. ~~For example, on July 12, 2021, one~~

Our backlog is subject to unexpected adjustments and cancellations and is, therefore, an uncertain indicator of our ~~major customers filed bankruptcy after suspending operations during~~future revenue or earnings. As of July 1, 2023, our backlog was approximately $17.7 million which was a decrease of $2.7 million from $20.4 million as of December 31, 2022. We expect a majority of this backlog to be completed within the ~~second quarter~~next 12 months. We cannot assure investors that the revenue projected in our backlog will be realized or, if realized, will result in profits. Projects currently in our backlog may be canceled or may remain in our backlog for an extended period of ~~2021, which led~~time prior to project execution and, once project execution begins, it may occur unevenly over the current and multiple future periods. In addition, project terminations, suspensions or reductions in scope occur from time to time with respect to contracts reflected in our backlog, reducing the revenue and profit we actually receive from contracts reflected in our backlog. Future project cancellations and scope adjustments could further reduce the dollar amount of our backlog in addition to the revenue and profits that we actually earn. The potential for cancellations and adjustments to our ~~recording~~backlog are exacerbated by economic conditions, particularly in our chosen area of concentration, the energy industry. The energy industry has experienced a ~~$1.4 million bad debt reserve~~sustained period of low crude oil and ~~a $0.5 million reduction~~natural gas prices which has reduced our clients’ activities in ~~backlog during~~ the ~~year ended December 25, 2021.~~energy industry.

Our cash balance at financial institutions may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured amounts. Our cash balances, including funds on deposit with financial institutions, are subject to certain limitations imposed by the FDIC. The FDIC provides deposit insurance coverage up to the maximum limit for each depositor, per insured bank. The standard deposit insurance amount is $250,000 per depositor, per FDIC-insured bank, for each ownership category. Due to the FDIC deposit insurance limits, we may be exposed to the risk of loss on any excess cash balances that exceed the deposit insurance amount. This risk arises from the possibility of financial institutions with whom we have deposits becoming insolvent or unable to honor withdrawal requests, resulting in potential losses on uninsured portions of our cash holdings.

The Revolving Credit Facility does not require the Borrowers to comply with any financial covenants.		On June 15, 2023, the Company repaid in full all indebtedness outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility was closed on June 15, 2023.

	(2)	On June 15, 2023, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Alliance 2000, Ltd., a Texas limited partnership (“Alliance”), pursuant to which Alliance has agreed, subject to certain terms and conditions, to extend up to two term loans in the aggregate principal amount of $1,250,000 to the Company (collectively, the “Term Loans”). In connection with entering into the Credit Agreement, (i) the Company and its subsidiaries, ENGlobal U.S., Inc., a Texas corporation, ENGlobal Government Services, Inc., a Texas corporation, and ENGlobal Technologies, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (collectively, the “Guarantors”), entered into a security agreement granting a security interest in favor of Alliance on substantially all of the Company’s and Guarantors’ assets to secure all of the indebtedness and other obligations owed to Alliance under the Credit Agreement and (ii) the Guarantors entered into a continuing guaranty pursuant to which the Guarantors guaranteed the payment of all indebtedness owed to Alliance.
