ENGlobal (NASDAQ:ENG), a leading provider of engineered modular solutions, today reported that for the third quarter ended September 28, 2019, the company had a net loss of $716,000, or $(.03) per diluted share, on revenue of $13,974,000, compared to a net loss of $197,000, or $(.01) per diluted share, on revenue of $14,255,000 for the same period in 2018.

The company is continuing to execute its strategic business transition which focuses on utilizing its resources to supply higher-value, complete modular process and automation systems. A major factor in the company’s increased net loss for the quarter was due to upfront proposal and staffing costs incurred by its Engineering segment in advance of expected awards. ENGlobal announced the first of these awards on November 8 with an initial contract valued in excess of $20 million to supply process modules that will be used to construct a complete hydrogen production facility.

The Company’s Automation segment performed well when compared to the prior year quarter – increasing revenue and operating income by 31% and 123% respectfully. These positive results are primarily due to the company’s performance on two large process analytical projects that were awarded earlier in the year.

For the first nine months of 2019, the company had a net loss of $2,207,000, or $(.08) per diluted share, on revenue of $39,758,000, compared to a net loss of $2,388,000, or $(.09) per diluted share, on revenue of $41,314,000 for the first nine months of 2018.

“ENGlobal’s path to profitability can be realized through internal growth by securing larger jobs, such as the major process plant award we announced last Friday,” said Chairman and CEO William A. Coskey, P.E. “Given this major additional business, along with a growing book of proposal activity, I believe we have turned the corner and would expect improved performance in our 2019 fourth quarter results.”

Mr. Coskey added that he expects the company’s modular systems business should continue to benefit from the business relationship it has formed with a major process technology firm as well as from ENGlobal’s growing internal business development program.

Looking forward to 2020, Mr. Coskey affirmed that the company’s current transition is expected to continue and should result in “improved revenue and earnings when compared to 2019.”
