GREAT LAKES DREDGE & DOCK CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(dollar amounts in thousands, except per share amounts or as otherwise noted)
1. | Basis of presentation |
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of Great Lakes Dredge & Dock Corporation and Subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Great Lakes”) and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the SEC’s rules and regulations, although management believes that the disclosures are adequate and make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature (except as otherwise noted), that are necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and its results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 have been included.
On March 27, 2020, the U.S. government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The CARES Act is an emergency economic stimulus package in response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic which, among other things, includes various tax provisions relating to refundable payroll tax credits, deferment of the employer side of certain payroll taxes and social security payments, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. The Company has elected to defer the employer side of certain payroll taxes and is continually assessing the financial impact of these tax-related changes. As of June 30, 2020, the Company has not been significantly impacted by COVID-19 but the uncertainty that surrounds this virus means that the Company must continue to monitor and assess any potential future impact on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
The components of costs of contract revenues include labor, equipment (including depreciation, maintenance, insurance and long-term rentals), subcontracts, fuel, supplies, short-term rentals and project overhead. Hourly labor is generally hired on a project-by-project basis. Costs of contract revenues vary significantly depending on the type and location of work performed and assets utilized.
The Company has 1 operating segment which is also the Company’s reportable segment and reporting unit of which the Company tests goodwill for impairment. The Company performed its most recent annual test of impairment as of July 1, 2019 with no indication of impairment as of the test date. The Company will perform its next scheduled annual test of goodwill in the third quarter of 2020.
The condensed consolidated results of operations and comprehensive income for the interim periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
2. | Earnings per share |
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that it reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities or other obligations to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

The computations for basic and diluted earnings per share are as follows:

Credit agreement
As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had 0 borrowings outstanding under our $200,000 amended and restated revolving credit and security agreement (as amended, the “Amended Credit Agreement”). There were $30,767 and $35,779 of letters of credit outstanding and $168,870 and $163,729 of availability under the Amended Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The availability under the Amended Credit Agreement is suppressed by $362 and $492 as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, as a result of certain limitations set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement.
Senior Notes and subsidiary guarantors
In May 2017, the Company issued $325,000 of 8.000% senior notes (“8% Senior Notes”) due May 15, 2022. The interest is paid semi-annually.
The Company’s obligations under these Senior Notes are guaranteed by certain of the Company’s 100% owned domestic subsidiaries. Such guarantees are full, unconditional and joint and several. The parent company issuer has no independent assets or operations and all non-guarantor subsidiaries have been determined to be minor.

5. | Fair value measurements |
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. A fair value hierarchy has been established by GAAP that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The accounting guidance describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2—Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The Company utilizes the market approach to measure fair value for its financial assets and liabilities. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. At times, the Company holds certain derivative contracts that it uses to manage commodity price risk. The Company does not hold or issue derivatives for speculative or trading purposes. The fair values of these financial instruments are summarized as follows:

Fuel hedge contracts
The Company is exposed to certain market risks, primarily commodity price risk as it relates to diesel fuel purchase requirements, which occur in the normal course of business. The Company enters into heating oil commodity swap contracts to hedge the risk that fluctuations in diesel fuel prices could have an adverse impact on cash flows associated with its domestic dredging contracts. The Company’s typical goal is to hedge approximately 80% of the fuel requirements for work in domestic backlog. Due to the current economic environment, fuel prices are at record lows. As a result, the Company has currently adjusted hedging to 100% of the fuel requirements for work in the domestic backlog.
As of June 30, 2020, the Company was party to various swap arrangements to hedge the price of its diesel fuel purchase requirements for work in its backlog to be performed through March 2021. As of June 30, 2020, there were 7.4 million gallons remaining on these contracts which represent approximately 100% of the Company’s forecasted domestic fuel purchases through March 2021. Under these swap agreements, the Company will pay fixed prices ranging from $1.12 to $2.01 per gallon.
At June 30, 2020, the fair value liability of the fuel hedge contracts was estimated to be $4,093, and is recorded in accrued expenses. At December 31, 2019, the fair value asset of the fuel hedge contracts was estimated to be $849, and is recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets. For fuel hedge contracts considered to be highly effective, the losses reclassified to earnings from changes in fair value of derivatives, net of cash settlements and taxes, for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were $3,828. The remaining gains and losses included in accumulated other comprehensive loss at June 30, 2020 will be reclassified into earnings over the next nine months, corresponding to the period during which the hedged fuel is expected to be utilized. Changes in the fair value of fuel hedge contracts not considered highly effective are recorded as cost of contract revenues in the Statement of Operations. The fair values of fuel hedges are corroborated using inputs that are readily observable in public markets; therefore, the Company determines fair value of these fuel hedges using Level 2 inputs.

The Company is exposed to counterparty credit risk associated with non-performance of its various derivative instruments. The Company’s risk would be limited to any unrealized gains on current positions. To help mitigate this risk, the Company transacts only with counterparties that are rated as investment grade or higher. In addition, all counterparties are monitored on a continuous basis.
The fair value of the fuel hedge contracts outstanding as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 is as follows:

Other financial instruments
The carrying value of financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. Based on timing of the cash flows and comparison to current market interest rates, the carrying value of our revolving credit agreement approximates fair value. In May 2017, the Company issued a total of $325,000 of 8% senior notes due May 15, 2022, which were outstanding at June 30, 2020 (see Note 4, Long-term debt). The 8% Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries that guarantee the 8% Senior Notes. The fair value of the senior notes was $333,125 at June 30, 2020, which is a Level 1 fair value measurement as the senior notes’ value was obtained using quoted prices in active markets. It is impracticable to determine the fair value of outstanding letters of credit or performance, bid and payment bonds due to uncertainties as to the amount and timing of future obligations, if any.

6. | Share-based compensation |
On May 11, 2017, the Company’s stockholders approved the Great Lakes Dredge & Dock Corporation 2017 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”), which previously had been approved by the Company’s board of directors subject to stockholder approval. The Incentive Plan permits the granting of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted stock units to the Company’s employees and directors for up to 3.3 million shares of common stock, plus an additional 1.7 million shares underlying equity awards issued under the 2007 Long-Term Incentive Plan.
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company granted 790 thousand restricted stock units to certain employees. In addition, all non-employee directors on the Company’s board of directors are paid a portion of their board-related compensation in stock grants or restricted stock units. Compensation cost charged to expense related to share-based compensation arrangements was $1,455 and $1,619 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Compensation cost charged to expense related to share-based compensation arrangements was $3,130 and $3,619 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
7. | Revenue |
At June 30, 2020, the Company had $423,403 of remaining performance obligations, which the Company refers to as total backlog. Approximately 72% of the Company’s backlog will be completed in 2020 with the remaining balance expected to be completed in 2021.
Revenue by category
The following series of tables presents our revenue disaggregated by several categories.

These costs relate to pre-contract and pre-construction activities. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company amortized $3,612 and $8,804 and $2,998 and $5,749, respectively, of pre-construction costs.
8. | Commitments and contingencies |
Commercial commitments
Performance and bid bonds are customarily required for dredging and marine construction projects, as well as some environmental & infrastructure projects. The Company has bonding agreements with Argonaut Insurance Company, Berkley Insurance Company, Chubb Surety and Liberty Mutual Insurance Company, under which the Company can obtain performance, bid and payment bonds. The Company also has outstanding bonds with Travelers Casualty, Surety Company of America and Zurich American Insurance Company (“Zurich”). Bid bonds are generally obtained for a percentage of bid value and amounts outstanding typically range from $1,000 to $10,000. At June 30, 2020, the Company had outstanding performance bonds with a notional amount of approximately $1,046,175 of which $17,401 relates to projects from the Company’s historical environmental & infrastructure businesses. The revenue value remaining in backlog related to these projects totaled approximately $345,584.
14
In connection with the sale of its historical demolition business, the Company was obligated to keep in place the surety bonds on pending demolition projects for the period required under the respective contract for a project and issued Zurich a letter of credit related to this exposure. In February 2017, the Company was notified by Zurich of an alleged default triggered on a historical demolition surety performance bond in the aggregate of approximately $20,000 for failure of the contractor to perform in accordance with the terms of a project. In May 2017, Zurich drew upon the letter of credit in the amount of $20,881. In order to fund the draw on the letter of credit in May 2017, the Company had to increase the borrowings on its revolving credit facility. As the outstanding letters of credit previously reduced the Company’s availability under the revolving credit facility, this draw down on the Company’s letter of credit did not impact its liquidity or capital availability.
Pursuant to the terms of sale of its historical demolition business, the Company received an indemnification commitment from the buyer for losses resulting from the bonding arrangement. In April 2020, the Court granted the Company’s motion for entry of final judgment in the amount of $21,934 based upon the buyer’s default of its obligations to indemnify the Company for losses resulting from the bonding arrangement. In May 2020, the Court entered that final judgment, and in June 2020, Defendants filed a notice of appeal from that judgment. The Company cannot estimate the amount or range of collectible recoveries related to the indemnification. It does, however, intend to oppose the appeal and aggressively pursue collection from the buyer for such payment.
Certain foreign projects performed by the Company have warranty periods, typically spanning no more than one to three years beyond project completion, whereby the Company retains responsibility to maintain the project site to certain specifications during the warranty period. Generally, any potential liability of the Company is mitigated by insurance, shared responsibilities with consortium partners, and/or recourse to owner-provided specifications.
Legal proceedings and other contingencies
As is customary with negotiated contracts and modifications or claims to competitively bid contracts with the federal government, the government has the right to audit the books and records of the Company to ensure compliance with such contracts, modifications, or claims, and the applicable federal laws. The government has the ability to seek a price adjustment based on the results of such audit. Any such audits have not had, and are not expected to have, a material impact on the financial position, operations, or cash flows of the Company.
Various legal actions, claims, assessments and other contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business are pending against the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. The Company will defend itself vigorously on all matters. These matters are subject to many uncertainties, and it is possible that some of these matters could ultimately be decided, resolved, or settled adversely to the Company. Although the Company is subject to various claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of business, except as described below, the Company is not currently a party to any material legal proceedings or environmental claims. The Company records an accrual when it is probable a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company does not believe any of these proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, would be expected to have a material effect on results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.
On April 23, 2014, the Company completed the sale of NASDI, LLC (“NASDI”) and Yankee Environmental Services, LLC (“Yankee”), which together comprised the Company’s historical demolition business, to a privately owned demolition company. On January 14, 2015, the Company and its subsidiary, NASDI Holdings, LLC, brought an action in the Delaware Court of Chancery to enforce the terms of the Company's agreement to sell NASDI and Yankee. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company received cash of $5,309 and retained the right to receive additional proceeds based upon future collections of outstanding accounts receivable and work in process existing at the date of close. The Company seeks specific performance of the buyer’s obligation to collect and to remit the additional proceeds, and other related relief. Defendants have filed counterclaims alleging that the Company misrepresented the quality of its contracts and receivables prior to the sale. The Company denies defendants’ allegations.
In June 2019, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Louisiana informed the Company that it intends to file criminal charges against the Company in connection with a September 2016 oil spill. The oil spill occurred during the Company’s Cheniere Ronquille project, allegedly resulting in the discharge of around 160 barrels of crude oil in Bay Long, Louisiana. The Company has cooperated with the U.S. Attorney’s Office in its investigation of the oil spill and believes that criminal charges are not warranted.
On September 27, 2019, the EPA Region 4 filed an administrative complaint against the Company relating to a project the Company performed at PortMiami from 2013-2015. The EPA is alleging violations of Section 103 of the Marine Protection, Research, and Sanctuaries Act (“MPRSA”) and failure to report violations of the MPRSA. The EPA seeks the statutory maximum penalty of $75 per violation of the MPRSA. The Company disagrees with the EPA on whether violations occurred and, if any violation did occur, the appropriate penalty calculation.
Except as noted above, the Company has not accrued any amounts with respect to the above matters as the Company does not believe, based on information currently known to it, that a loss relating to these matters is probable, and an estimate of a range of potential losses relating to these matters cannot reasonably be made.
15
Lease obligations
The Company leases certain operating equipment and office facilities under long-term operating leases expiring at various dates through 2026. The equipment leases contain renewal or purchase options that specify prices at the then fair value upon the expiration of the lease terms. The leases also contain default provisions that are triggered by an acceleration of debt maturity under the terms of the Company’s Amended Credit Agreement, or, in certain instances, cross default to other equipment leases and certain lease arrangements require that the Company maintain certain financial ratios comparable to those required by its Amended Credit Agreement. Additionally, the leases typically contain provisions whereby the Company indemnifies the lessors for the tax treatment attributable to such leases based on the tax rules in place at lease inception. The tax indemnifications do not have a contractual dollar limit. To date, no lessors have asserted any claims against the Company under these tax indemnification provisions.
9. | Business dispositions |
Discontinued operations
During the second quarter of 2019, the Company entered into an agreement and completed the sale of the historical environmental & infrastructure business. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company received cash of $18,357.

General
The Company is the largest provider of dredging services in the United States. In addition, the Company has a long history of performing significant international projects. The mobility of the Company’s fleet enables the Company to move equipment in response to changes in demand for dredging services.
Dredging generally involves the enhancement or preservation of navigability of waterways or the protection of shorelines through the removal or replenishment of soil, sand or rock. Domestically, our work generally is performed in coastal waterways and deep water ports. The U.S. dredging market consists of four primary types of work: capital, coastal protection, maintenance and rivers & lakes. The Company’s bid market is defined as the aggregate dollar value of domestic dredging projects on which the Company bid or could have bid if not for capacity constraints (“bid market”). The Company experienced an average combined bid market share in the U.S. of 39% over the prior three years, including 56%, 53%, 16% and 45% of the domestic capital, coastal protection, maintenance and rivers & lakes sectors, respectively.
The Company’s largest domestic dredging customer is the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (the “Corps”), which has responsibility for federally funded projects related to navigation and flood control of U.S. waterways. In the first six months of 2020, the Company’s dredging revenues earned from contracts with federal government agencies, including the Corps as well as other federal entities such as the U.S. Coast Guard and the U.S. Navy were approximately 78% of dredging revenues, above the Company’s prior three year average of 74%.
In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China. COVID-19 has since spread worldwide and to every state in the United States. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic and on March 13, 2020 the United States declared a national emergency in response to the coronavirus outbreak. This outbreak has severely impacted global economic activity and many countries and states in the United States have reacted by instituting quarantines, mandating school and business closures and limiting travel.

On March 28, 2020, dredging was specifically listed in the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s “Advisory Memorandum on Identification of Essential Critical Infrastructure Workers During COVID-19 Response” which federally designates the Company as an essential business or “critical infrastructure” company that can maintain operations during the ongoing pandemic. As mentioned above, the Company’s largest domestic dredging customer is the Corps; the Corps oversees the majority of these critical infrastructure projects and, in this capacity, has continued to follow their bid schedule and prioritize all types of dredging including port maintenance and expansion and coastal protection projects that are necessary to avoid potential storm damage during the upcoming hurricane season. Despite the current uncertainty surrounding COVID-19, to date, the Corps is continuing to advertise new projects and the Company’s project work is largely uninterrupted.
Senior management regularly meets to update contingency plans and address the challenges related to maintaining operations in this evolving economic environment. The Company’s primary focus has been the health and safety of its employees. The Company has implemented new paid leave policies and additional sanitary and safety measures to mitigate the risk of infection to employees. On vessels and job sites, the Company has instituted fewer employee shift changes and increased sanitary and social distancing measures. Although we have had crew members on certain of our vessels contract COVID-19, such instances have not to date had a material impact on our business. Since March, the Company’s corporate employees have effectively transitioned to a remote working environment and have discontinued non-essential travel to follow recommended physical and social distancing guidelines in order to reduce the risk of infection. The Company is following the protocols published by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the World Health Organization and state and local governments. As the Company’s employees, customers and communities are facing significant challenges, the Company cannot predict how COVID-19 will evolve or the impact it, or actions taken to contain it, will have on future results. As of June 30, 2020, the Company’s business has not been significantly impacted by COVID-19, but the Company will be continually evaluating safety and operational contingency plans and the impact that this evolving environment has on the Company’s business and operations. For more information, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors – A pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of an infectious disease in the markets in which we operate or that otherwise impacts our facilities or suppliers could adversely impact our business.
During the second quarter of 2019, the Company entered into an agreement and completed the sale of its historical environmental & infrastructure business. The historical environmental & infrastructure segment has been retrospectively presented as discontinued operations. Refer to Note 9, Business dispositions, to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
The Company has one operating segment which is also the Company’s one reportable segment and reporting unit.
The Company’s vessels are subject to periodic dry dock inspections to verify that the vessels have been maintained in accordance with the rules of the U.S. Coast Guard and the American Bureau of Shipping (“ABS”) and that recommended repairs have been satisfactorily completed. Dry dock frequency is a statutory requirement mandated by the U.S. Coast Guard and the ABS. The Company’s vessels dry-dock every two to three years or every five years, depending on the vessel type and also on an as-needed basis for occasional unscheduled repairs. As expected, the Company experienced significant dry dock inspections in the second quarter of 2020 which will continue into the third quarter.

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, as provided herein, represents net income (loss) from continuing operations, adjusted for net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, debt extinguishment, accelerated maintenance expense for new international deployments, goodwill or asset impairments and gains on bargain purchase acquisitions. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is not a measure derived in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Company presents Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations as an additional measure by which to evaluate the Company’s operating trends. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is a measure frequently used to evaluate performance of companies with substantial leverage and that the Company’s primary stakeholders (i.e., its stockholders, bondholders and banks) use Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations to evaluate the Company’s period to period performance. Additionally, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations provides a transparent measure of the Company’s recurring operating performance and allows management and investors to readily view operating trends, perform analytical comparisons and identify strategies to improve operating performance. For this reason, the Company uses a measure based upon Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations to assess performance for purposes of determining compensation under the Company’s incentive plan. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, amounts determined in accordance with GAAP including: (a) operating income as an indicator of operating performance; or (b) cash flows from operations as a measure of liquidity. As such, the Company’s use of Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, instead of a GAAP measure, has limitations as an analytical tool, including the inability to determine profitability or liquidity due to the exclusion of accelerated maintenance expense for new international deployments, goodwill or asset impairments, gains on bargain purchase acquisitions, interest and income tax expense and the associated significant cash requirements and the exclusion of depreciation and amortization, which represent significant and unavoidable operating costs given the level of indebtedness and capital expenditures needed to maintain the Company’s business. For these reasons, the Company uses operating income to measure the Company’s operating performance and uses Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations only as a supplement. The following is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations to net income (loss):

Total revenue was $167.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, down $16.9 million, or 9%, from $184.8 million for the same period in the prior year. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company experienced a decrease in coastal protection, rivers & lakes and foreign capital revenues as compared to the same period in the prior year. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in domestic capital and maintenance revenues during the current period as compared to the same period in the prior year. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, total revenue was $385.6 million, up from revenue of $377.4 million for the same period in the prior year, representing an increase of $8.2 million or 2%. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company experienced an increase in coastal protection and maintenance revenues as compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in domestic capital, rivers & lakes and foreign capital revenues during the current period as compared to the same period in the prior year.
Capital dredging consists primarily of port expansion projects, which involve the deepening of channels and berthing basins to allow access by larger, deeper draft ships and the provision of land fill used to expand port facilities. In addition to port work, capital projects also include coastal restoration and land reclamations, trench digging for pipelines, tunnels and cables, and other dredging related to the construction of breakwaters, jetties, canals and other marine structures. For the quarter ended June 30, 2020, domestic capital dredging revenue was $63.4 million, up $4.0 million, or 7%, compared to $59.4 million for the same period in 2019. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the increase in domestic capital dredging revenue was primarily driven by a greater amount of revenue earned on the deepening project in Charleston and a coastal restoration project in Mississippi in the current year when compared to the prior year period. This increase was partially offset by a greater amount of revenue earned on a deepening project in Jacksonville during the prior year period as compared to the current year. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, domestic capital dredging revenue was $147.0 million compared to $152.2 million for the same period in 2019, representing a decrease of $5.2 million, or 3%. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the lower domestic capital dredging revenue was primarily driven by lower revenue earned from deepening projects in Tampa and Jacksonville as well as a greater amount of revenue earned on a deepening project on the Delaware River during the prior year as compared to the same period in the current year. This decrease was partially offset by a greater amount of revenue earned on coastal restoration projects and the deepening projects in Charleston and Corpus Christi during the six months ended June 30, 2020.
Foreign capital projects typically involve land reclamations, channel deepening and port infrastructure development. In the second quarter of 2020, foreign capital revenue was $4.0 million, down $14.6 million, as compared to $18.6 million in the same quarter in the prior year. Foreign capital revenue for the first half of 2020 was $10.8 million which is $16.2 million, or 60%, lower than revenue of $27.0 million for the same period of the prior year. The decrease in revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was driven by a decrease in revenue earned on a project in Bahrain that commenced during the first quarter of 2019.
Coastal protection projects involve moving sand from the ocean floor to shoreline locations where erosion threatens shoreline assets. Coastal protection revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 was $56.0 million, a decrease of $2.2 million, or 4%, compared to $58.2 million in the prior year period. The decrease in coastal protection revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was mostly attributable to a greater amount of revenue earned on projects in North and South Carolina in the prior year period when compared to the current year. This decrease was partially offset by revenue earned on projects in Florida and Virginia in the current year. Coastal protection revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $135.9 million, representing an increase of $44.0 million or 48%, from $91.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in coastal protection revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was mostly attributable to a greater amount of revenue earned on projects in Florida and Virginia in the current year as compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase was partially offset by a greater amount of revenue earned on projects in New York, New Jersey and North Carolina during the same period in the prior year when compared to the current year.
Maintenance dredging consists of the re-dredging of previously deepened waterways and harbors to remove silt, sand and other accumulated sediments. Due to natural sedimentation, most channels generally require maintenance dredging every one to three years,
20
thus creating a recurring source of dredging work that is typically non-deferrable if optimal navigability is to be maintained. In addition, severe weather such as hurricanes, flooding and droughts can also cause the accumulation of sediments and drive the need for maintenance dredging. Maintenance revenue for the second quarter of 2020 was $42.0 million, up $11.8 million, or 39%, from $30.2 million in the second quarter of 2019. The increase in maintenance revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was mostly attributable to a greater amount of revenue earned on projects in Maryland, Texas and Virginia. This increase was partially offset by revenue earned on a project in Florida in the prior year and revenue on a project in South Carolina that did not repeat during the current year. Maintenance revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $84.4 million, an increase of $24.6 million, or 41%, compared to $59.8 million for the comparable period in the prior year. The increase in maintenance dredging revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was mostly attributable to revenue earned on projects in Maryland and Virginia. This increase was partially offset by greater revenue earned on projects in North Carolina and Florida in the prior year when compared to the current year.
Rivers & lakes dredging and related operations typically consist of lake and river dredging, inland levee and construction dredging, environmental restoration and habitat improvement and other marine construction projects. During the second quarter of 2020, rivers & lakes revenue was $2.5 million, a decrease of $15.9 million, or 86%, from $18.4 million during the same period of 2019. Rivers & lakes revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $7.5 million, down $39.1 million, or 84%, from $46.6 million for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in rivers & lakes revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was mostly attributable to a greater amount of revenue earned during the prior year periods on a large flood mitigation project in Texas as a result of Hurricane Harvey, as well as a project in Louisiana, when compared to the current year.
Consolidated gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 was $33.0 million, down $4.5 million, or 12% compared to $37.5 million in the same quarter of 2019. Gross profit margin for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was 19.7% compared to 20.3% in the second quarter of 2019. The lower gross profit experienced for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was driven by an increase in vessel dry dockings in the current period, higher profitability from maintenance projects in the prior year period and a lower number of rivers and lakes dredging projects in the current year period as compared to the prior year. This was offset by higher profitability from coastal protection and domestic capital dredging projects in the current year. Consolidated gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $101.5 million, up $14.1 million, or 16%, compared to $87.4 million in the same period of the prior year. Gross profit margin for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was up to 26.3% from 23.2% in the six months ended June 30, 2019. The higher gross profit experienced for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was driven by an increase in the profitability of the Company’s coastal protection dredging projects in the first quarter of 2020. In addition, in the first quarter of 2020, most of the Company’s dredges worked a busier than usual schedule, which contributed to the higher gross profit margin for the first half of 2020.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, general and administrative expenses were $14.8 million and $30.4 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in prior year in which the three and six months totaled $14.6 million and $29.4 million, respectively. General and administrative expenses increased by $0.2 million and $1.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, compared to the same periods of the prior year. The increase in general and administrative expenses for the quarter was due to increased relocation and legal and office expenses, partially offset by decreased incentive pay. The increase in general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 over the same period in the prior year was driven by an increase in relocation and legal and office expenses, partially offset by a decrease in employee benefits.
Operating income for the second quarter of 2020 was $18.3 million, down $4.5 million compared to operating income of $22.8 million for the same quarter in 2019. The decrease in operating income for the second quarter of 2020 was a result of higher gross profit in the prior period, primarily due to fewer dry dockings in the prior period as discussed above, as compared to the same period in the current year. Operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $71.3 million, up $13.7 million from operating income of $57.6 million in the same prior year period. The change in operating income for the first half of 2020 was a result of higher gross profit partially offset by higher general and administrative expense compared to the same period in the prior year, as described above. Additionally, an increase of $0.5 million in gain on sale of assets contributed to the increase in operating income in the current year.
For the three months ended June 30, 2020, net interest expense was $6.7 million, down $0.5 million, or 7%, from $7.2 million for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was attributable to a decrease of $0.5 million in extinguishment of debt and $0.2 million of amortization of deferred financing fees when compared to the prior year period. Additionally, $0.2 million of capitalized interest contributed to the decrease in the current year period when compared to the prior year period. These decreases were offset by a $0.4 million decrease in interest income when comparing the current year to the same period in the prior year. Net interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $13.4 million, down $1.3 million, or 9%, from interest expense of $14.7 million for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was attributable to a decrease of $0.5 million in extinguishment of debt and $0.6 million of amortization of deferred financing fees when compared to the prior year period. Additionally, $0.2 million of capitalized interest contributed to the decrease in the current year when compared to the prior year. These decreases were offset by a $0.1 million decrease in interest income when comparing the current year to the same period in the prior year.

Income tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $3.1 million compared to an income tax provision of $4.2 million for the same period in the prior year. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company had an income tax provision of $14.4 million and an income tax provision of $11.1 million, respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was 25.2%, mostly in line with the effective tax rate of 25.7% for the same period of 2019.
Net income from continuing operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 was $9.0 million, down $2.5 million, or 22%, from $11.5 million in the same quarter in the prior year. Diluted earnings per share attributable to continuing operations was $0.14 for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $0.18 for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in net income from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was driven by the decrease in gross profit as described above. This decrease was partially offset by a $0.4 million increase in other income, a decrease of $0.5 million in interest expense, as described above, and a $1.1 million decrease in income tax provision during the current year when compared to the same period in the prior year. Net income from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $42.9 million, up $10.9 million, or 34%, from $32.0 million for the same period in the prior year. Diluted earnings per share attributable to continuing operations were $0.65 and $0.50 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase in net income from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was driven by the increase to gross profit, a decrease in interest expense and an increase of $0.5 million in gain on sale of assets, as described above. This increase was partially offset by a $0.9 million increase to general and administrative expense, $0.9 million increase in operating expense and a $3.3 million increase in income tax provision during the current year when compared to the same period in the prior year.
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations (as defined on page 19) for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 was $28.1 million, down $3.9 million, or 12%, from $32.0 million in the same quarter in the prior year. The change in Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations during the second quarter of 2020 was driven by the change in gross profit, excluding depreciation. This decrease was offset by an increase of $0.4 million of other income when comparing the current year to the same period in the prior year. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations was $89.5 million, up $13.6 million, or 18%, from Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations of $75.9 million for the same prior year period. The change in Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations during the first six months of 2020 was attributable to higher gross profit, excluding depreciation, as described above, when compared to the prior year. These positive factors were partially offset by higher general & administrative expenses, as described above, and $0.9 million of other expense incurred during the first half of 2020.

The Company’s contract backlog represents its estimate of the revenues that will be realized under the portion of the contracts remaining to be performed. These estimates are based primarily upon the time and costs required to mobilize the necessary assets to and from the project site, the amount and type of material to be dredged and the expected production capabilities of the equipment performing the work. However, these estimates are necessarily subject to variances based upon actual circumstances. Because of these factors, as well as factors affecting the time required to complete each job, backlog is not always indicative of future revenues or profitability. Also, 64% of the Company’s June 30, 2020 dredging backlog relates to federal government contracts, which can be canceled at any time without penalty to the government, subject to the Company’s contractual right to recover the Company’s actual committed costs and profit on work performed up to the date of cancellation. The Company’s backlog may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter based upon the type and size of the projects the Company is awarded from the bid market. The Company’s backlog includes only those projects for which the Company has obtained a signed contract with the customer. A quarterly increase or decrease of the Company’s backlog does not necessarily result in an improvement or a deterioration of the Company’s business. As expected, the Company experienced significant dry dock inspections in the second quarter of 2020 which will continue into the third quarter. Dry dock inspections in the second quarter significantly impacted the ability for vessels under inspection to earn revenue.

The domestic dredging bid market for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 was $428.6 million, a $193.5 million increase compared to the same period in the prior year. Total domestic dredging bid market for the current year period included awards for two coastal restoration projects in Louisiana, maintenance work on the Ohio and Mississippi River, hopper maintenance work on the West Coast and a capital liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) project in Louisiana. The bid market for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased compared to the prior year due to a greater amount of domestic capital projects let to bid in the current year. This was partially offset by higher coastal protection, maintenance and rivers and lakes projects awarded in the first half of the prior year. For the contracts awarded in the current year, the Company won 39%, or $115.5 million, of domestic capital projects, 20%, or $10.7 million, of the coastal protection projects, 9%, or $24.9 million, of maintenance projects and 100%, or $13.5 million, of rivers & lakes projects through June 30, 2020. The Company won 26% of the overall domestic bid market for the six months ended June 30, 2020, which is below the Company’s prior three year average of 39%. Variability in contract wins from quarter to quarter is not unusual and one quarter’s win rate is generally not indicative of the win rate the Company is likely to achieve for a full year.
The Company’s contracted dredging backlog was $423.4 million at June 30, 2020 compared to $589.4 million of backlog at December 31, 2019. These amounts do not reflect approximately $144.8 million of domestic low bids pending formal award and additional phases (“options”) pending on projects currently in backlog at June 30, 2020. At December 31, 2019 the amount of domestic low bids and options pending award was $201.3 million.
Domestic capital dredging backlog at June 30, 2020 was $1.5 million lower than at December 31, 2019. In the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company was awarded three projects in Louisiana which consisted of two coastal restoration projects of $30 million and $28 million, respectively, and an LNG project for a private client. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company continued to earn revenue on deepening projects in Charleston, Jacksonville and Corpus Christi as well as on a deepening project on the Delaware River and a coastal restoration project in Mississippi. At the end of last year, several LNG petro chemical and crude oil export projects were being developed in the Gulf of Mexico creating the need for port development and navigational channel deepening and widening to accommodate the larger vessels involved in this trade. With the current economic environment in the oil and gas markets, some of these privately funded projects are expected to be impacted and delayed. Government funded projects coming into the pipeline include additional phases of the Charleston, Jacksonville and Corpus Christi deepenings, as well as new deepenings for ports in Mobile, Alabama and the Everglades in Florida. These deepenings continue the trend of ensuring all East Coast and Gulf of Mexico ports will be able to accommodate the deeper draft vessels currently used on several trade routes. The nation’s governors continue to show commitment to their respective ports through engagement and funding. Finally, Congress has also shown a commitment to ports and waterways, providing record annual budgets for the Corps for port deepening and channel maintenance. In addition to this port work, a greater amount of coastal restoration and rehabilitation projects are being funded in the Gulf Coast region as the states utilize available monies for ecosystem priorities, a portion of which is allocated to dredging.
Foreign capital dredging backlog at June 30, 2020 was $10.9 million lower than at December 31, 2019. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company continued to earn revenue on a project in the Middle East which was in backlog at December 31, 2019.
Coastal protection dredging backlog decreased $119.1 million from December 31, 2019. In the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company was awarded a coastal protection project in New York. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company continued to earn revenue on coastal protection projects in New York, North Carolina, South Carolina and Florida which were in backlog at December 31, 2019. Coastal protection and storm impacts continue to provide the major impetus for coastal project investment at federal and state levels. As a result of the extreme storm systems in prior years involving Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria, the U.S. Congress passed supplemental appropriations for disaster relief and recovery which includes $17.4 billion for the Corps to fund projects that will reduce the risk of future damage from flood and storm events. The Corps is beginning to provide visibility on its plans for this money, and it is expected that approximately $1.8 billion will be allocated to dredging-related work. Most of this work is anticipated to be coastal protection related, but some funding may be provided for channel maintenance. During 2019, an additional $3.3 billion of supplemental appropriations was approved for disaster relief funding as a result of Hurricane Florence and Hurricane Michael.
Maintenance dredging backlog decreased $35.1 million from December 31, 2019. The Company was awarded an $18 million maintenance project in Maryland and Virginia during the six months ended June 30, 2020. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company continued to earn revenue on projects in Maryland, North Carolina and Florida which were in backlog at December 31, 2019. During the fourth quarter of 2018, the President signed America’s Water Infrastructure Act of 2018/Water Resources Development Act (“WRDA 2018”) into law. Similar to past versions of the bill, WRDA 2018 language calls for full use of the Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund (“HMTF”) for its intended purpose of maintaining future access to the waterways and ports that support our nation’s economy. Additionally, on March 27, 2020, the U.S. government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) which includes a provision that lifts caps on the HMTF, thereby allowing full access to future annual revenues. Through the increased appropriation of HMTF monies, the Company anticipates increased funding for harbor maintenance projects to be let for bid throughout 2020 and beyond.

Rivers & lakes backlog at June 30, 2020 was up $0.5 million compared to backlog at December 31, 2019. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company was awarded new work in Texas and Mississippi. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company continued to earn revenue on a large project which was in backlog at December 31, 2019. Additionally, the Company earned revenue on a project in Mississippi during the current year period.
Liquidity and capital resources
The Company’s principal sources of liquidity are net cash flows provided by operating activities and proceeds from previous issuances of long-term debt. The Company’s principal uses of cash are to meet debt service requirements, finance capital expenditures, provide working capital and other general corporate purposes.
The Company’s cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 totaled $67.5 million and $111.8 million, respectively. Normal increases or decreases in the level of working capital relative to the level of operational activity impact cash flow from operating activities. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations during the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same period in the prior year was driven by billings and collections on large projects during the prior period as well as an increase in working capital due to an increase in receivables during the current year when compared to the same period in the prior year. Further, this decrease was offset by an increase of $10.9 million in net income from continuing operations in the current period compared to the same period in the prior year.
The Company’s cash flows used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 totaled $20.1 million and $18.8 million, respectively. Investing activities primarily relate to normal course upgrades and capital maintenance of the Company’s dredging fleet. In the second quarter of 2020, the Company announced and made a down payment for a contract to build a 6,500 cubic yard trailing suction hopper dredge with expected delivery in the first quarter of 2023. Proceeds from dispositions of property and equipment in the prior year period was $5.5 million compared to $0.9 million in the current year.
The Company’s cash flows used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 totaled $0.8 million and $13.1 million, respectively. The decrease in cash used in financing activities primarily relates to changes in the net repayments on Company’s revolving credit facility in the prior period of $11.5 million compared to none in the current year. On July 31, 2020, the Company’s board of directors approved a share repurchase program, authorizing, but not obligating, the repurchase of up to an aggregate amount of $75.0 million of common stock.
The Company maintains a favorable cash on hand position and revolver availability and as a result is well positioned for changes in the current economic environment. To date, the Company has had no significant operational or financial impact as a result of the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic but will continue to assess the potential economic impact that the virus and pandemic could have on the Company’s operations and liquidity.
Senior notes
In May 2017, the Company issued $325 million in aggregate principal amount of its 8% Senior Notes due May 15, 2022. Interest on the 8% Senior Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on November 15, 2017. The 8% Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the guarantors and any other subsidiary guarantors that from time to time become parties to the indenture. The terms of the indenture, among other things, limit the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to (i) pay dividends, or make certain other restricted payments or investments; (ii) incur additional indebtedness and issue disqualified stock; (iii) create liens on their assets; (iv) transfer and sell assets; (v) enter into certain business combinations with third parties or enter into certain other transactions with affiliates; (vi) create restrictions on dividends or other payments by the Company’s restricted subsidiaries; and (vii) create guarantees of indebtedness by restricted subsidiaries. These covenants are subject to a number of important limitations and exceptions that are described in the indenture.
Commitments, contingencies and liquidity matters
Refer to Note 4, Long-term debt, in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion of the Company’s Amended Credit Agreement. Additionally, refer to Note 8, Commitments and contingencies, in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion of the Company’s surety agreements.
The Company intends to upgrade its existing domestic fleet by acquiring new vessels, equipment and technology to increase productivity and efficiency. Existing cash on hand, future net cash flows, debt financing and new leases are all available funding resources from which the Company will evaluate its options when considering these upgrades.
The Company believes its cash and cash equivalents, its anticipated cash flows from operations and availability under its revolving credit facility will be sufficient to fund the Company’s operations, capital expenditures and the scheduled debt service requirements for the next twelve months. Beyond the next twelve months, the Company’s ability to fund its working capital needs, planned capital expenditures, scheduled debt payments and dividends, if any, and to comply with all the financial covenants under the Amended
24
Credit Agreement and bonding agreements, depends on its future operating performance and cash flows, which in turn, are subject to prevailing economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond the Company’s control.
Critical accounting policies and estimates
In preparing its consolidated financial statements, the Company follows GAAP, which is described in Note 1, Basis of presentation, to the Company’s December 31, 2019 Consolidated Financial Statements included on Form 10-K. The application of these principles requires significant judgments or an estimation process that can affect the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of the Company, as well as the related footnote disclosures. The Company continually reviews its accounting policies and financial information disclosures. Except as noted in Note 1, Basis of presentation, of the Company’s financial statements, there have been no material changes in the Company’s critical accounting policies or estimates since December 31, 2019.

PART II — Other Information
Item 1. | Legal Proceedings. |
See Note 8, Commitments and contingencies, in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Item 1A. | Risk Factors. |
There have been no material changes, except for the following, during the six months ended June 30, 2020 to the risk factors previously disclosed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as supplemented by the risk factor previously disclosed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.
A pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of an infectious disease in the markets in which we operate or that otherwise impacts our facilities or suppliers could adversely impact our business.
If a pandemic, epidemic, or outbreak of an infectious disease, including the recent outbreak of respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) first identified in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China, or other public health crisis were to affect our markets or facilities or those of our suppliers, our business could be adversely affected. The COVID-19 pandemic has involved disruptions in and restrictions on our ability to travel, and in the future these disruptions and restrictions could restrict our ability to perform work for future projects in different locations. While to date the COVID-19 pandemic has not had a material impact on our operations, we cannot be certain how our operations may be affected in the short or long term. This uncertainty is partially because the eventual duration of the COVID-19 pandemic is unknown, and may rely on the creation, production and distribution of a vaccine. In the meantime, our ability to respond to COVID-19-related outbreaks is complicated by availability of testing for the presence of COVID-19 (or its related antibodies), delays in receiving test results and false negative or positive test results. Although we have had crew members on certain of our vessels contract COVID-19, such instances have not to date had a material impact on our business. If COVID-19 or a different infectious disease were to have a more widespread outbreak at one or more of our vessels or facilities, our operations may be affected significantly, our productivity may be affected, key personnel necessary to conduct our operations or replacement crew may be unavailable, our ability to complete projects in accordance with our contractual obligations may be affected, and we may incur increased labor and materials costs. If the shipyards with which we contract were affected by an outbreak of infectious disease, repairs of our vessels as well as new construction may be delayed and we may incur increased labor and materials costs. In addition, we may experience difficulties with certain suppliers or with vendors in their supply chains, and our business could be affected if we become unable to procure essential supplies or services in adequate quantities and at acceptable prices.
Our clients, such as the Corps, private clients and other federal or state agencies, have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, and if prolonged, these impacts may lead to cancelations or delays in projects. Funds for dredging projects may also be diverted for public health, economic, or other priorities. Overall, the potential impact of a pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of an infectious disease with respect to our markets or our facilities is difficult to predict and could adversely impact our business. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided, we may experience materially adverse impacts to our business as a result of its effect on global economies and financial markets, including any recession or economic downturn that has occurred or may occur in the future.
