On December 1, 2021, the Company acquired ("DSS Acquisition") the services and industrial staffing businesses ("DSS" or "DSS Business") of Dynamic Industries, Inc. The operating results of the DSS Business for the one-month period ended December 31, 2021, are included within the Fabrication & Services Division.

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

"We had another quarter of solid project performance by our Fabrication & Services Division, while also continuing to successfully execute on our strategic initiatives during the fourth quarter," said Richard Heo, Gulf Island's President and Chief Executive Officer. "Momentum in our small-scale fabrication and services businesses continues to improve and we expect the recent rise in energy prices to further bolster this trend in the near term. The strong platform we are building in our services and small-scale fabrication businesses position us well for profitable growth in these markets."

"Activity in the large fabrication market is picking up; however, we believe there is still excess capacity in the market. We remain committed to taking a measured and disciplined approach when bidding on large projects, as we have no intention of derailing all that we have accomplished over the last two years by booking large project awards on terms that do not meet our risk parameters," continued Heo. "These are long-term, fixed-price contracts, and we are unwilling to commit our resources to any project that does not meet our return hurdles, particularly given the current inflationary headwinds and uncertain labor environment. In the absence of large fabrication awards, we will continue to shift our focus to our growing services and small-scale fabrication businesses, and we will look to optimize our asset base for changes in our business mix over time."

"A critical part of our growth strategy centers on growing and diversifying our services business, so we were very excited to complete the DSS Acquisition in December," continued Heo. "The acquisition of DSS allows us to further strengthen our current services business by adding long-standing customer relationships of DSS to our existing customer base, while also providing new services offerings and positioning us for growth and attractive revenue synergy opportunities. Perhaps even more important, the addition of DSS nearly doubled the size of our skilled craft workforce, which is significant given the labor constraints plaguing our industry. While we are still early in the integration, we are very excited about the potential of our combined services businesses especially in light of the strong Gulf of Mexico production activity."

"We once again benefited from the strong execution of our Fabrication & Services Division, which enabled the division to deliver positive EBITDA for the quarter when excluding Hurricane Ida and acquisition costs," stated Westley Stockton, Gulf Island's Chief Financial Officer. "In addition, we continued to improve our risk profile and liquidity position, ending the quarter with almost $55.0 million in cash, which was consistent with our expectations after considering the DSS Acquisition, giving us ample financial flexibility to pursue our growth objectives."

"2021 was an important year in the strategic transformation of Gulf Island, and I am extremely proud of everything we accomplished during the year, as we continued to de-risk our business through the Shipyard Transaction in April, improved our project execution, significantly expanded our services business through the DSS Acquisition, and made further progress on our targeted growth markets," noted Heo. "While we are disappointed to not have been awarded any large-scale fabrication work, we will continue to remain disciplined, and maintain our focus on markets that meet our risk and return objectives. We have made significant progress in positioning the Company for profitable growth over the last two years, and we remain optimistic about the long-term opportunity for the Company," concluded Heo.

STRATEGIC UPDATE

During 2020, the Company outlined a strategic plan that was focused on improving its financial strength and positioning the Company to pursue higher-margin growth opportunities. Underpinning this strategy was a focus on improving the Company's risk profile, strengthening its liquidity position, improving resource utilization and project execution, and reducing the Company's reliance on offshore oil and gas markets. With the significant progress achieved on these objectives, during 2021, management shifted to the next phase of its strategic transformation, which is focused on generating stable, profitable growth based on pursuing new growth end markets, growing and diversifying its services business, further strengthening project execution, and expanding its skilled labor workforce. Below is an update on the progress made on each of these initiatives during the fourth quarter:

Pursue new growth end markets – The Company has focused its near-term business development efforts on higher-growth end markets such as LNG and petrochemical, with an eye towards pursuing opportunities in the rapidly growing energy transition market over time. Bidding activity in the LNG and petrochemical markets is improving, but the Company intends to remain disciplined when bidding on large fabrication projects given the uncertain labor and supply chain environment. Until the risk/return profile for large fabrication projects improves, Gulf Island will continue to focus on growing its services platform and small-scale fabrication business, which are experiencing favorable market dynamics. In addition, given the increased inquiries and bidding activity in energy transition markets such as green hydrogen and renewables, the Company intends to more quickly shift its focus to these end markets.

Grow and diversify services business – The Company is pursuing opportunities to diversify its offshore services customer base, increase its offshore services offerings, and expand its services offerings to onshore markets. The DSS Acquisition accelerated the progress on these initiatives and positions Gulf Island to succeed in these attractive end markets. Given the Company's significantly expanded skilled workforce following the DSS Acquisition, Gulf Island is better able to take advantage of the improving business environment, and the Company is experiencing increasing activity from existing customers and has also been successful attracting new services opportunities and skilled personnel.

Further strengthen project execution – While significant progress has been made, the Company is focused on further strengthening its personnel, processes and procedures in an effort to further improve project execution, which will drive higher margins and improve new award win rates. The positive EBITDA results for the Fabrication & Services Division during 2021, despite the meaningful under-utilization of facilities and resources, highlights the progress achieved in these efforts. Consistent project execution gives the Company confidence in its capabilities and what it takes to execute projects in this competitive environment.

Expand skilled workforce – The Company continues to focus on ways to improve retention and enhance and add to its skilled craft personnel, as a strong workforce will be a key differentiator in pursuing new project awards given the scarcity of available skilled craft labor within the industry. The Company was able to make significant progress on this initiative through the DSS Acquisition, which nearly doubled its skilled craft workforce and expanded its geographic footprint for skilled labor.

SEGMENT RESULTS

Fabrication & Services Segment – Revenue for the fourth quarter 2021 was $23.5 million, an increase of $2.3 million compared to the fourth quarter 2020. The increase was primarily due to higher small-scale fabrication activity and the contribution of the DSS Acquisition, offset partially by lower revenue from the division's larger fabrication projects that were completed in the quarter.

New project awards were $21.5 million for the fourth quarter 2021, representing a 58.4% year-over-year increase, and backlog totaled $6.8 million at December 31, 2021. The new award growth was driven by small-scale fabrication and offshore services work. See "Non-GAAP Measures" below for the Company's definition of new project awards and backlog.

Operating loss was $2.8 million for the fourth quarter 2021, compared to a loss of $1.8 million for the fourth quarter 2020. EBITDA for the fourth quarter was a loss of $1.8 million, versus a loss of $0.6 million for the prior year period. Operating loss and EBITDA for the fourth quarter 2021 include charges of $3.2 million associated with previous damage caused by Hurricane Ida to facilities and equipment and acquisition costs of $0.5 million associated with the DSS Acquisition, while fourth quarter 2020 EBITDA included impairment charges of $2.4 million. Operating results for both periods were impacted by low revenue volume and the associated partial under-recovery of overhead costs due to the under-utilization of facilities and resources, with the 2021 period experiencing an increase in the under-recovery of overhead costs due to lower work hours for the division's large fabrication projects, offset partially by the benefits of strong project execution and a more favorable project margin mix.

Shipyard Segment – Revenue for the fourth quarter 2021 was $2.3 million, a decrease of $0.1 million compared to the fourth quarter 2020. Revenue for both quarters was related entirely to the division's forty-vehicle ferry projects and seventy-vehicle ferry project.

Operating loss was $1.6 million for the fourth quarter 2021, compared to a loss of $7.8 million for the fourth quarter 2020. Fourth quarter 2021 results included project charges of $0.7 million attributable to the division's seventy-vehicle ferry project, while fourth quarter 2020 results included project charges of $7.3 million for the division's forty-vehicle ferry projects and seventy-vehicle ferry project. Results for the fourth quarter 2021 also included ongoing vessel holding costs and legal fees of $0.4 million associated with the Company's contract dispute for two multi-purpose supply vessels ("MPSVs") and charges of $0.2 million associated with previous damage caused by Hurricane Ida to the MPSVs that are in the Company's possession. The Company continues to anticipate the wind down of its Shipyard operations by the third quarter 2022.

Corporate Segment – Operating loss was $1.7 million for the fourth quarter 2021, compared to a loss of $2.0 million for the fourth quarter 2020. The decrease was primarily due to lower incentive plan costs, offset partially by higher costs associated with initiatives to diversify and enhance the Company's business.

Discontinued Operations – In April 2021, the Company sold its Shipyard Division operating assets and long-term construction contracts ("Shipyard Transaction"). Discontinued operations include the results associated with the operations included in the Shipyard Transaction and associated with certain previously closed Shipyard Division facilities. Operating loss was $3.8 million for the fourth quarter 2020. There were no results from discontinued operations for the fourth quarter 2021.

BALANCE SHEET AND LIQUIDITY

The Company's cash balance at December 31, 2021 was $54.6 million, including $1.7 million of restricted cash associated with outstanding letters of credit. At December 31, 2021, the Company had no debt.

ABOUT GULF ISLAND

Gulf Island is a leading fabricator of complex steel structures and modules and provider of specialty services, including project management, hookup, commissioning, repair, maintenance, scaffolding, coatings, civil construction and staffing services to the industrial and energy sectors. The Company's customers include U.S. and, to a lesser extent, international energy producers; refining, petrochemical, LNG, industrial and power operators; and EPC companies. The Company is headquartered in Houston, Texas and its primary operating facilities are located in Houma, Louisiana.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

This Release includes certain non-GAAP measures, including earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), new project awards and backlog. The Company believes EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure as it reflects the Company's operating results excluding the non-cash impacts of depreciation and amortization. Reconciliations of EBITDA to the most comparable GAAP measure are presented under "Consolidated Results of Operations" and "Results of Operations by Segment" below.

The Company believes new project awards and backlog are useful supplemental measures as they represent work that the Company is obligated to perform under its current contracts. New project awards represent the expected revenue value of contract commitments received during a given period, including scope growth on existing contract commitments. Backlog represents the unrecognized revenue value of new project awards, and at December 31, 2021, was consistent with the value of remaining performance obligations for contracts as determined under GAAP.

Non-GAAP measures are not intended to be replacements or alternatives to GAAP measures, and investors are urged to consider these non-GAAP measures in addition to, and not in substitution for, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company may present or calculate non-GAAP measures differently from other companies.

Additional factors or risks that the Company currently deems immaterial, that are not presently known to the Company or that arise in the future could also cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from its expected results. Given these uncertainties, investors are cautioned that many of the assumptions upon which the Company's forward-looking statements are based are likely to change after the date the forward-looking statements are made, which it cannot control. Further, the Company may make changes to its business plans that could affect its results. The Company cautions investors that it undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made, for any reason, whether as a result of new information, future events or developments, changed circumstances, or otherwise, and notwithstanding any changes in its assumptions, changes in business plans, actual experience or other changes.
