Analysis · SHIM · Real Estate & Construction
Shimmick delivered a mixed quarter — revenue fell short of last year's $128M but gross margin nearly doubled to 12%, and Adjusted EBITDA turned positive at $4M. The real story is the record $991M backlog and a 1.4x book-to-burn ratio, signaling strong demand in water and energy infrastructure. Management raised full-year revenue guidance to $525–$575M (12% growth at midpoint) while reaffirming Adjusted EBITDA of $15–$30M, suggesting confidence in profitability despite winding down legacy projects. Liquidity remains tight at $33M, but the recent $14M equity raise and improving operations provide some cushion.
