NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1.	Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation

Nature of Business

Bowman Consulting Group Ltd. and its affiliates (“Bowman” or “we” or the “Company”) incorporated in the Commonwealth of Virginia on June 5, 1995 and reincorporated in the State of Delaware on November 13, 2020. Bowman is a professional services firm delivering innovative solutions to the marketplace of customers who own, develop and maintain the built environment. Within that arena, we provide planning, design, engineering, geomatics, survey, construction management, environmental consulting and land procurement services to markets that encompass the buildings in which people live, work and learn in, the systems that provide water, electricity and other vital services, and the roads, bridges, and transportation systems used to get from place to place. We provide services to customers through fixed-price and time-and-material based contracts containing multiple milestones and independently priced deliverables. Typically, contract awards are on a negotiated basis, ranging in value from a few thousand dollars to multiple millions of dollars and can have varying durations depending on the size, scope, and complexity of the project.

The Company’s workforce typically provides the full scope of engineering and other contract services. With respect to certain specialty services or other compliance requirements within a particular contract, however, we may engage third-party sub-consultants. The Company’s headquarters is located in Reston, VA and the Company has over 30 offices throughout the United States.

Initial Public Offering

On May 11, 2021, we closed on our initial public offering (“IPO”), in which we issued and sold 3,690,000 shares of our common stock at $14.00 per share, resulting in net proceeds of $48.0 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, but before expenses of the IPO.

On June 4, 2021, the underwriters exercised their option to purchase an additional 115,925 shares of the Company’s common stock at the public offering price of $14.00 per share, resulting in additional gross proceeds of approximately $1.6 million. After giving effect to this partial exercise of the overallotment option, the total number of shares sold by Bowman in its initial public offering increased to 3,805,925 shares and gross proceeds increased to approximately $53.3 million. The exercise of the over-allotment option closed on June 8, 2021, at which time the Company received net proceeds of approximately $1.5 million after underwriting discounts and commissions.

Deferred offering costs consist primarily of accounting, legal, and other fees related to our IPO. Prior to the IPO, all deferred offering costs were capitalized within prepaid and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheet. After the IPO, $2.3 million of deferred offering costs were reclassified into shareholder’s equity as a reduction of the IPO proceeds. We capitalized $0.9 million of deferred offering costs within prepaid and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial information. In the opinion of management, the interim financial information includes all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows. The results of operations for the current period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year or the results for any future periods.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited combined financial statements and related footnotes included in our final prospectus dated May 6, 2021, and filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies and principles used in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements:

Emerging Growth Company

Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”) exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company that is either not an emerging growth company or, an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period, difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Revenue Recognition

Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contract with Customers (“ASC Topic 606”) provides a single comprehensive revenue recognition framework and supersedes almost all revenue recognition guidance including industry-specific revenue guidance. To determine the proper revenue recognition method under ASC Topic 606, the Company evaluates whether two or more contracts should be combined and accounted for as one single contract and if so, whether to account for the combined or single contract as more than one performance obligation. For most contracts, it is concluded that there is a single performance obligation because the promise to transfer individual goods or services is not separately identifiable from the commitment to the deliverable of the contract and, therefore, is not distinct.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could vary from the estimates and assumptions that were used.

Concentration of Credit Risk and other Concentrations

The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and accounts receivable.

Cash balances at various times during the year may exceed the amount insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company’s cash deposits are held in institutions whose credit ratings are monitored by management, and the Company has not incurred any losses related to such deposits.

The Company is subject to a concentration of credit risk with respect to outstanding accounts receivable, however, the Company believes no such concentration existed during the six months ended June 30, 2021, or the year ended December 31, 2020. The Company’s customers are located throughout the United States. Although the Company generally grants credit without collateral, management believes that its contract acceptance, billing, and collection policies are adequate to minimize material credit risk. Also, for non-governmental customers, the Company can often place mechanics liens against the real property associated with the contract in the event of non-payment.

Fair Value Measurements

Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC Topic 820”) provides the framework for measuring and reporting financial assets and liabilities at fair value. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell 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.

The codification establishes a three-level disclosure hierarchy to indicate the level of judgment used to estimate fair value measurements:

Level 1:Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date;

Level 2:Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and inputs other than quoted prices (such as interest rate and yield curves);

Level 3:Uses inputs that are unobservable, supported by little or no market activity and reflect significant management judgment.

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

•

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to the relatively short duration of these instruments;

•

The carrying amounts of debt obligations approximate their fair values as the terms are comparable to terms currently offered by local financial institutions for arrangements with similar terms to industry peers with comparable credit characteristics. Accordingly, the debt obligations involve Level 2 fair value inputs;

•

As of December 31, 2020 the liability related to shares subject to repurchase is recognized at fair value using Level 3 inputs that were primarily determined based on the contractual settlement price as defined by the terms of the Company’s Shareholders’ Buy-Sell Agreement. As of June 30, 2021 the liability related to shares subject to repurchase is recognized at fair value using Level 1 inputs as there is an active market for the Company’s publicly traded stock. For further discussion, see Note 15, Stock Bonus Plan.

Income Taxes

The Company recognizes deferred income tax assets or liabilities for expected future tax consequences of events recognized in the consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income tax assets or liabilities are determined based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to apply when the differences settle or become realized. Valuation allowances are provided when it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset is not realizable or recoverable in the future.

The Company recognizes the effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was 30.70% and 41.38%.

The Company assesses uncertain tax positions to determine whether the position will more likely than not be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) or other taxing authorities. If the Company cannot reach a more-likely-than-not determination, no benefit is recorded. If the Company determines that the tax position is more likely than not to be sustained, the Company records the largest amount of benefit that is more likely than not to be realized when the tax position is settled. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and certain states in which it operates. Based on the timing of the filing of certain tax returns, the Company’s federal income tax returns for tax years 2017 and after remain subject to examination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. The statute of limitations on the Company’s state income tax returns generally conforms to the federal three-year statute of limitations.

Segments

The Company operates in one segment based upon the financial information used by its chief operating decision maker in evaluating the financial performance of its business and allocating resources. The single segment represents the Company’s core business of providing engineering and related professional services to its customers.

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

Accounting guidance not yet adopted

Leases. In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”) to increase transparency and comparability of accounting for lease transactions by requiring lessees to recognize the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and to disclose qualitative and quantitative information about lease transactions and enable

users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The effective date of ASU 2016-02 for the Company is January 1, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326) to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology under U.S. GAAP. This ASU introduces a new accounting model, the Current Expected Credit Losses model (CECL), which could result in earlier recognition of credit losses and additional disclosures related to credit risk. The CECL model will require the Company to use a forward-looking expected credit loss impairment methodology for the recognition of credit losses for financial instruments at the time the financial asset is originated or acquired, and require a loss be incurred before it is recognized. The expected credit losses are adjusted each period for changes in expected lifetime credit losses. The new standard will apply to accounts receivable, loans, and other financial instruments. This standard is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2023. Adoption of ASU 2016-13 will be applied using a modified retrospective approach through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.

Goodwill. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. ASU 2017-04 eliminates Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. Goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which the reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value, limited to the carrying amount of the goodwill. ASU 2017-04 is effective for us beginning January 1, 2022. The Company does not expect the impact of this ASU to be material to its consolidated financial statements.

3. Earnings per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to the Company available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were either exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would share in the earnings of the Company. The Company uses the two-class method to determine earnings per share.

For calculating basic earnings per share, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the weighted average number of shares outstanding exclude 1,719,138 and 1,209,177 non-vested restricted shares and 32,067 and 43,743 unexercised substantive options. The computation of diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 did not assume the effect of restricted shares or substantive options because the effects were antidilutive.

For calculating basic earnings per share, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the weighted average number of shares outstanding exclude 312,926 and 223,932 non-vested restricted shares and 53,302 and 51,219 substantive options. The computation of diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 did not assume the effect of restricted shares or substantive options because the effects were antidilutive.

The following table represents a reconciliation of the net income and weighted average shares outstanding for the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands, except share data):

4. Acquisitions

Business Combinations

KTA Group Inc. (KTA)

In the first quarter of 2021, the Company signed a purchase agreement to acquire KTA Group Inc., with an effective date of January 1, 2021. KTA is a mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) engineering firm based in Herndon, VA. The Company paid total consideration of $3.4 million, which was comprised of 53,159 shares of common stock, at $12.80 per share, for a total of $0.7 million, plus $2.7 million in cash and a promissory note. The promissory note is a four year note with a 3.25% interest rate with equal quarterly payments beginning on April 1, 2021, and ending January 1, 2025.

The acquisition of KTA allows Bowman to add electrical engineering to the group of core competencies thereby allowing the Company to cross sell to, and better serve, its renewable energy customers. In addition, KTA’s mechanical engineers bring the experience and expertise necessary to deliver plans and designs for building ventilation, indoor air quality monitoring and medical-grade air filtration.

The following summarizes the preliminary calculations of the fair values of KTA Group’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date (in thousands):

Total Purchase Price	$	3,447
Purchase Price Allocation:
Contract assets		217
Property and equipment, net		453
Intangible Assets		871
Other assets		18
Accounts payable and other current liabilities		(240	)
Contract liabilities		(416	)
Total identifiable assets	$	903
Goodwill		2,544
Net assets acquired	$	3,447

The purchase price allocation is based upon preliminary information and is subject to change when additional information is obtained. Goodwill results from an assembled workforce, which does not qualify for separate recognition, as well as expected future synergies from combining operations. All of the goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The Company has not completed its final assessment of the fair values of KTA Group’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The final purchase allocation could result in adjustments to certain assets and liabilities, including the residual amount allocated to goodwill.

Identified intangible assets are comprised of customer relationships, contract rights and favorable leaseholds for a total amount of $0.9 million, to be amortized over an estimated useful life of 20 years, 3 years, and 9 years, respectively.

5. Disaggregation of Revenue and Contract Balances

The Company generally recognizes revenue over time as control transfers to a customer based upon the extent of progress towards satisfaction of the performance obligation. For services delivered under fixed price contracts, the Company uses the ratio of actual costs incurred to total estimated costs at completion (an input method) as a reasonable measure of progress towards the satisfaction of a performance in order to estimate the portion of revenue earned. A contract containing a mix of hourly and fixed fee assignments may be characterized as one lump sum contract for purposes of ASC Topic 606. As such, a contract must contain hourly billed components exclusively to qualify for the as-billed practical expedient in ASC Topic 606. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company derived 91.6% and 94.9% of its revenue from contracts classified as lump sum, and 8.4% and 5.1% of its revenue from exclusively time and material contracts, respectively. The Company had approximately $100.1 million in remaining performance obligations as of June 30, 2021, of which it expects to recognize approximately 77.1% within the next twelve months and the remaining 22.9% thereafter.

The Company recognized $0.9 million and $1.2 million of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, which was included in the contract liabilities balance as of December 31, 2020, and $2.9 million and $4.1 million of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, which was included in the contract liabilities balance as of December 31, 2019.

11. Bank Revolving Line of Credit and Fixed Credit Facilities

In 2017, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the Credit Agreement) with Bank of America (the Bank) which included a revolving line of credit (the Revolving Line) and a non-revolving line of credit (the Fixed Line #1). The Revolving Line allowed for repayments and re-borrowings. The maximum advance was equal to the lesser of $12.4 million (the Credit Limit) or the Borrowing Base as defined in the Credit Agreement. The Borrowing Base is computed based upon a percentage of eligible receivables within each aging category under 120 days and is further refined for customer type. Receivables more than 120 days and those from related parties or affiliates are not considered to be eligible receivables for the Borrowing Base.

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Credit Limit increased to $15.0 million. During the year ended December 31, 2019, a second non-revolving line of credit was established (Fixed Line #2). During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company entered into an additional credit agreement with Bank of America (Facility #4). Both credit agreements contained certain financial covenants including fixed charge coverage ratio, debt to EBITDA and adjusted debt to EBITDA, all of which the Company complied with on June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

On July 30, 2021, the Company entered into a Sixth Amendment to the Credit Agreement whereby the Company and the Bank agreed to extend the maturity date of the Revolving Line to July 31, 2023. The Sixth Amendment also eliminated the adjusted debt to EBITDA covenant along with certain administrative requirements and established the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) as the replacement for LIBOR. Additional modifications to the Revolving Line included expanded allowances for acquisition and reduced interest rate spreads to a range of 2.00% to 2.60%, among other things.

As of June 30, 2021, the Revolving Line required monthly payments of interest at the greater of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) daily floating rate or 1.25% plus an applicable rate which varied between 2.35% and 2.95% based on the Company achieving certain leverage ratios as defined in the Credit Agreement. On June 30, 2021, and June 30, 2020, the interest rate was 3.60% and 3.25%, respectively. All outstanding principal is due upon expiration, which was extended to July 31, 2023, when the Company entered into the Sixth Amendment to the Credit Agreement. The Revolving Line is reported as bank line of credit on the consolidated balance sheets. On June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the outstanding balance on the Revolving Line was $0 and $3.5 million, respectively.

Fixed Line #1 has a maximum advance of $1.0 million and does not allow for re-borrowings and is included in Notes Payable (see Note 12). Beginning October 1, 2017, the Company began paying interest on a monthly basis at a rate per year equal to LIBOR plus 2.75%. On June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, the interest rate was 2.85% and 2.93%, respectively. Commencing the earlier of i) the date no remaining amount is available under the Fixed Line or, ii) August 31, 2018, the Company is obligated to pay the then outstanding principal balance in sixty equal monthly installments through maturity in August 2023. On June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, the outstanding balance on Fixed Line #1 was $0.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively.

Fixed Line #2 has a maximum advance of $1.0 million and does not allow for re-borrowings and is included in Notes Payable (see Note 12). On April 1, 2020, the Company began paying interest monthly at a rate per year equal to LIBOR plus 2.00%. On June 30, 2021, the interest rate was 2.1%. Commencing the earlier of i) the date no remaining amount is available under the Fixed Line or, ii) August 31, 2020, the Company is obligated to pay the then outstanding principal balance in sixty equal monthly installments through maturity in September 2025. On June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the outstanding balance on Fixed Line #2 was $0.8 million and $0.9 million, respectively.

Facility #4 is a term loan with a principal loan amount of $1.0 million and is included in Notes Payable (see Note 12). The loan is to be repaid over thirty-six months beginning April 13, 2020 through maturity on March 13, 2023. The payments consist of principal and interest in equal combined installments of $29,294. The interest rate on this loan is 3.49%. On June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, the outstanding balance on Facility #4 was $0.6 million and $0.8 million, respectively.

The Company secures its obligations under the Credit Agreement with substantially all assets of the Company. Fixed Line #1 is guaranteed by Gary Bowman, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (“Guarantor”). Obligations of the Company to the Guarantor and certain other shareholders of the Company are subordinated to the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement and Fixed Line loans. The Company must maintain, on a combined basis certain financial covenants defined in the Credit Agreement.

Interest expense on the Revolving and Fixed Lines totaled $42,000 and $0.1 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. Interest expense on the Revolving and Fixed Lines totaled $59,000 and $0.2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

14. Stock Options

Effective May 11, 2021 the Company established the Bowman Consulting Group Ltd. 2021 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (“the Plan”). The plan is administered by the Board of Directors through which they can grant stock options, including Incentive Stock Options (“ISO”), and non-qualified stock options (“NQSO”).

The Plan supersedes and replaces any prior plan for stock options except that the prior plan shall remain in effect with respect to options granted under such prior plan until such options have been exercised, expired or canceled.

The number of shares for which each option shall be granted, whether the option is an ISO or NQSO, the option price, the exercisability of the option, and all other terms and conditions of the option are determined by the Board at the time the option is granted. The options generally vest over a period between two and five years.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, no new option shares were granted.

A summary of the status of stock options exercised, including the substantive options discussed in Note 3, is as follows:

The intrinsic value of these options on June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was $7.11 and $6.43, respectively.

The Company received cash payments of $8,861 and $27,285 from the exercise of options under the Stock Option Plan in the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

The Company did not record any compensation costs related to stock options during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

As of June 30, 2021, there is no unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Stock Option Plan. The remaining unexercised shares are from substantive options in which the non-recourse notes may be pre-paid, therefore the Company recognized the total calculated compensation expense at the time of issuance.

15. Stock Bonus Plan

Effective May 11, 2021 the Company established the Bowman Consulting Group Ltd. 2021 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. The Plan is administered by the Board of Directors through which they can issue restricted stock awards. The purpose of the Plan is to grant equity incentive awards to eligible participants to attract, motivate and retain key personnel. The Plan supersedes and replaces any prior plan for stock bonus grants to employees of the Company except that the prior plan shall remain in effect with respect to awards granted under such prior plan until such awards have been forfeited or fully vested.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Board granted 1,563,511 shares under the Plan. The shares have a vesting period of up to five years during which there are certain restrictions as defined by the Plan and Stock Bonus Agreements. The grant date fair value of the award is the closing price of the Share on such date, or if there are no sales on such date, on the next preceding day on which there were sales.

The following table summarizes the activity of restricted shares subject to forfeiture:

	Number of shares			Weighted Average Grant Price
Outstanding at January 1, 2021		702,926		$	12.80

17. Commitments and Contingencies

Operating leases

The Company leases office space, equipment and vehicles. The Company financed vehicles, certain IT, and other equipment under the terms of three primary master lease agreements accounted for as operating leases until September 30, 2020, when the Company converted the equipment and vehicles to capital lease as referenced in Note 17. The Company now leases nearly all equipment and vehicles under capital lease agreements and all office space under operating lease agreements. Rent, vehicle and equipment lease expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, was $1.4 million and $2.8 million, respectively. Rent, vehicle, and equipment lease expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, was $2.0 million and $4.1 million, respectively.

18. Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through August 12, 2021, the date that financial statements were issued.

On August 2, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of assets and operations of McFarland-Dyer & Associates, Inc. located in the Greater Atlanta Metropolitan area. In connection with the acquisition, the Company issued 32,143 shares of common stock to the seller. Given the short period of time between the acquisition date and the issuance of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, it is not practicable to disclose the preliminary purchase price allocation for this transaction.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This discussion contains “forward-looking statements” reflecting our current expectations, estimates and assumptions concerning events and financial trends that may affect our future operating results or financial position. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements due to several factors. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, economic and competitive conditions, regulatory changes, and other uncertainties, as well as those factors discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, particularly in “Cautionary Statement about Forward-Looking Statements,” all of which are difficult to predict. Considering these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed may not occur. We assume no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements, except to the extent required by applicable laws or rules. Unless the context otherwise requires, references to “Bowman,” the “company,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Bowman Consulting Group Ltd., its wholly owned subsidiaries and combined entities under common control, or either or all of them as the context may require.

Overview

Bowman is a professional services firm delivering innovative engineering solutions to customers who own, develop and maintain the built environment. We provide planning, engineering, construction management, commissioning, environmental consulting, geomatics, survey, land procurement and other technical services to over 2,200 customers operating in a diverse set of end markets. We work as both a prime and sub-consultant for a broad base of public and private sector customers that generally operate in highly regulated environments.

We have a diversified business that is not dependent on any one service line, geographic region, or end market. We are deliberate in our efforts to balance our sources of revenue and avoid reliance on any one significant customer, service line, geography or end market concentration. Our strategic focus is on penetrating and expanding our presence in markets which best afford us opportunities to secure assignments that provide reoccurring revenue and multi-year engagements thus resulting in dependable and predictable revenue streams and high employee utilization. We limit our exposure to risk by providing professional and related services exclusively. We do not engage in general contracting activities either directly, or through joint ventures, and therefore have no related exposure. We are not a partner in any design-build construction projects. We carry no heavy equipment inventory, and our risk of contract loss is generally limited to time associated with fixed fee professional services assignments.

Gross contract revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020 was $36.5 million and $31.7 million, respectively. Gross contract revenue derived from our workforce represented 88.9% and 85.6% of gross contract revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively (see Net service billing – non-GAAP below). Our adjusted EBITDA was $4.2 million on net loss of $0.6 million and $5.1 million on net income of $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Gross contract revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020 was $68.3 million and $60.4 million, respectively, representing year over year growth of 13.1%. Gross contract revenue derived from our workforce represented 89.8% and 86.0% of gross contract revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020, respectively (see Net service billing – non-GAAP below). Our adjusted EBITDA was $8.3 million on net income of $0.4 million and $6.7 million on net income of $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020, respectively.

COVID-19 Update

It is not possible at this time to estimate the full impact that COVID-19 and its variants will ultimately have on our business, as the impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. We are evaluating, and will continue to evaluate, the impact of COVID-19 on projects, but the full effects COVID-19 will have on our operations are still unknown. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have not experienced any material financial distress resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. We did not qualify for the PPP Loan program under the CARES Act. Included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and other non-current obligations in the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2021, is $2.5 million of deferred employer payroll taxes as afforded us under the CARES Act. The duration and extent of the impact from the COVID-19 pandemic depends on future developments and possible shelter-in-place orders that cannot be accurately predicted at this time, such as the severity and transmission rate of the virus, the extent and effectiveness of containment actions, and the impact of these and other factors on our employees and clients.

Methods of Evaluation

We use a variety of financial and other information in monitoring the financial condition and operating performance of our business. Some of the information we use to evaluate our operations is financial information that is in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), while other information may be financial in nature and either built upon GAAP results or may not be in accordance with GAAP (Non-GAAP). We use all this information together for planning and monitoring our operations, as well as determining certain management and employee compensation.

The Company operates as a single business segment represented by our core business of providing multi-disciplinary professional engineering solutions to customers. While we evaluate revenue and other key performance indicators relating to various divisions of labor, our leadership neither manages the business nor deliberately allocates resources by service line, geography, or end market. Our financial statements present results as a single operating segment.

Components of Income and Expense

Revenue

We generate revenue from services performed by our employees, pass-through fees from sub-consultants, and reimbursable contract costs. On our consolidated financial statements, we report gross revenue, which represents total revenue billed to customers excluding taxes collected from customers. Gross revenue less revenue derived from pass-through sub-consultant fees, reimbursable expenses and other direct expenses represents our net service billing, or that portion of our gross revenue attributable to services performed by our employees. Our industry uses the calculation underlying net service billing to normalize peer performance assessments and provide meaningful insight into trends over time. Refer to — Other Financial Data, Non-GAAP measurements and Key Performance Indicators below for further discussion of the use of this Non-GAAP financial measure.

We generally do not make profit from the pass-through of sub-consultants and reimbursable expenses. As such, contract profitability is most heavy impacted by the mix of labor utilized to complete the tasks and the efficiency of those resources in completing the tasks. Our largest direct contract cost is consistently our labor. To grow our revenue and maximize overall profitability we carefully monitor and manage our fixed cost of labor and the utilization thereof. Maintaining an optimal level of utilization on a balanced pool of growing labor resources represents our greatest prospect for delivering increasing profitability.

Our contracts with customers contain two types of pricing characteristics:

Hourly, also referred to as time and materials, are common for professional and technical consulting assignments both short-term and multi-year in duration. Under these types of assignments, there is no predetermined maximum fee and as such, we generally experience no risk associated with our ability to bill for all hours expended. We negotiate billing rates and charge our customers based upon the actual hours expended toward a deliverable. These assignments may have not-to-exceed parameters requiring us to receive additional authorizations from our customer to continue working, but we likewise do not have to continue working without assurances of payment for such additional work. Hourly assignments represented approximately $10.5 million and $20.0 million or 29% and 29% of our gross contract revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 hourly assignments represented approximately $11.7 million and $24.1 million or 37% and 40% of our gross contract revenue, respectively.

Lump sum, also referred to as fixed fee, typically require the performance of some, or all, of the obligations under the assignment for a specified amount, subject to price adjustments only if the scope of the project changes or unforeseen requirements arise. Our fixed fee assignments generally include a specific scope of work and defined deliverables. The majority of our assignments are lump sum in nature representing approximately $26.0 million and $48.3 million or 71% and 71% of our gross contract revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 assignments that are lump sum in nature represented approximately $20.0 million and $36.3 million or 63% and 60% of our gross contract revenue. Recognizing revenue from lump sum assignments requires management estimates of both total contract value when there are contingent compensation elements of the fee arrangement and expected cost at completion. We closely monitor our progress to completion and adjust our estimates when necessary. We do not recognize revenue from work that is performed at risk with no documented customer commitment.

Contract Costs

Contract costs consists of direct payroll costs, sub-consultant costs and other direct expenses exclusive of depreciation and amortization.

Direct payroll costs represent the portion of salaries and wages incurred in connection with the production of deliverables under customer assignments and contracts. Direct payroll costs include allocated fringe costs (i.e. health benefits, employer payroll taxes, and retirement plan contributions), paid leave and incentive compensation.

Sub-consultants and direct expenses include both sub-consultants and other outside costs associated with performance under our contracts. Sub-consultant and direct costs are generally reimbursable by our customers under the terms of our contracts.

Performance under our contracts does not involve significant machinery or other long term depreciable assets. Most of the equipment we employ involves desktop computers and other shared ordinary course IT equipment. We present direct costs exclusive of depreciation and amortization and as such we do not present gross profit on our consolidated financial statements.

Operating Expense

Operating expenses consists of selling, general and administrative costs, non-cash stock compensation, depreciation and amortization and settlements and other non-core expenses.

Selling, general and administrative expenses represent corporate and other general overhead expenses, salaries and wages not allocated to customer projects including management and administrative personnel costs, incentive compensation, personal leave, office lease and occupancy costs, legal, professional and accounting fees.

Non-cash stock compensation represents the expenses incurred with respect to shares and options issued by the Company, both vested and unvested, to employees as long-term incentives. Non-cash stock compensation cost will be the grant date fair value of the awards, or the Black-Sholes-Merton value of stock options on the grant date, recognized ratably over the vesting periods of each award. Future non-cash stock compensation expense for unvested shares awarded prior to December 31, 2020 is based on a $12.80 per share fair value on the date of modification. Stock awards will continue to be an important part of our long-term retention and rewards philosophy.

Depreciation and amortization represent the depreciation and amortization expense of our property and general IT equipment, capital lease assets, tenant improvements and intangible assets.

(Gain) loss on sale represents gains or losses inclusive of foreign exchange and accumulated depreciation recapture resulting from the disposal of an asset upon the sale or retirement of such asset.

Other (Income) Expense

Other (income) expense consists of other non-operating and non-core expenses.

Tax Expense

Income tax (benefit) expense, current and deferred, includes estimated federal, state and local tax expense associated with our net income, as apportioned to the states in which we operate. Estimates of our tax expense include both current and deferred tax expense along with all available tax incentives and credits.

Other Financial Data, Non-GAAP Measurements and Key Performance Indicators

Backlog

We measure the value of our undelivered gross revenue in real time to calculate our backlog and predict future revenue. Backlog includes awarded, contracted, and otherwise secured commitments along with revenue we expect to realize over time for predictable long-term and reoccurring assignments. We report backlog quarterly as of the end of the last day of the reporting period. We use backlog to predict revenue growth and anticipate appropriate future staffing needs. Backlog definitions and methods of calculation vary within our industry. As such, backlog is not a reliable metric on which to evaluate us relative to our peers. Backlog neither derives from, nor connects to, any GAAP results.

Net Service Billing

In the normal course of providing services to our customers, we routinely subcontract services and incur direct third-party contract expenses that may or may not be reimbursable and may or may not be billed to customers with mark-up. Gross revenue less revenue derived from pass-through sub-consultant fees and reimbursable expenses represents our net service billing, which is a non-

GAAP financial measure, or that portion of our gross contract revenue attributable to services performed by our employees. Because the ratio of sub-contractor and direct expense costs to gross billing varies between contracts, gross revenue is not necessarily indicative of trends in our business. As a professional services company, we believe that metrics derived from net service billings more accurately demonstrate the productivity and profitability of our workforce. Our industry uses the calculation of net service billing to normalize peer performance assessments and provide meaningful insight into trends over time.

Adjusted EBITDA

We view Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as an important indicator of normalized performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest expense, income taxes and depreciation and amortization, plus discontinued expenses, legal settlements and other costs not in the ordinary course of business, non-cash stock-based compensation (inclusive of expenses associated with the adjustment of our liability for common shares subject to redemption), and other adjustments such as costs associated with preparing for our IPO. Our peers may define Adjusted EBITDA differently.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin, net

Adjusted EBITDA Margin, net, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, represents Adjusted EBITDA, as defined above, as a percentage of net service billings, as defined above.

Three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020

Gross Contract Revenue

Gross contract revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021, increased $4.8 million or 15.1% to $36.5 million as compared to $31.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, gross contract revenue attributable to work performed by our workforce increased $5.3 million, or 19.5% to $32.5 million or 89.0% of gross contract revenue as compared to $27.2 million or 85.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 (see Net service billing – non-GAAP).

Changes in gross contract revenue (“GCR”) for the three months ended June 30, 2021, disaggregated between our core and emerging end markets, were as follows (in thousands other than percentages):

¹represents renewable energy, mining, water resources and other

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, gross revenue from our communities, homes and buildings (“CHB”) market increased $5.6 million as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase is attributable to a $2.4 million increase from residential and mixed-use projects, and a $3.2 million increase from commercial, municipal, and other projects. Gross revenue derived from the acquisition of KTA was almost exclusively attributable to commercial projects. As the U.S. economy recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic, we are experiencing continued expansion of demand for our CHB services. We continue to maintain a positive outlook on this market and expect it to represent most of our gross revenue for the remainder of 2021.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, revenue from transportation decreased $1.2 million as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020. Reductions of $1.5 million due to the completion of two large transportation projects in Texas and reduced activity on projects in Illinois and Virginia were offset by $0.3 million of increased gross revenue from projects in Florida and West Virginia. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, we were awarded a three-year, $10 million task order contract from Cook County, Illinois relating to their Pavement Preservation and Rehabilitation program. We believe the transportation market continues to present significant opportunity for future growth and we remain committed to investing in leadership, technical expertise, and business development resources for this market.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, revenue from power and utilities increased $0.7 million as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in gross contract revenue from the power and utilities market is primarily the result of a $0.2 million increase in revenue associated with multi-year gas pipeline identification and replacement programs and a $0.5 million increase in gross revenue from utility undergrounding assignments. The power and utilities market continues to experience increasing infrastructure investment as changing weather patterns, energy transition mandates and other safety initiatives positively impact demand for the services we provide. As evidenced by recent increases in program commitments within the gas pipeline market, we believe trends in power and utilities provide meaningful opportunity for continued growth and we are committed to investing resources accordingly.

Our other emerging markets consist of renewable energy and energy efficiency, mining, water resources, and other natural resources services. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, revenue from emerging markets decreased $0.3 million as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020. Decreases in emerging market revenue included $0.1 million in reduced gross revenue from solar energy and battery storage assignments and $0.2 million in reduced gross revenue in our Arizona mining operations. Our mining services have specialized in copper mining, the demand for which is cyclical in nature and was negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Given forecasted increases in demand for copper and the reduced impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mining operators, we expect this market to grow over the next few years. Scarcities in water resources and the increasing need for water management gives us confidence that the water resources market will likewise grow and that we will be able to increase associated revenue accordingly. With the acquisition of KTA, we expect to experience continued growth from investment in renewable energy and energy transition.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020, public sector customers, defined as direct contracts with municipalities, public agencies, or governmental authorities, represented 14.0% and 17.4% of our gross contract revenue, respectively. Gross contract revenue from projects for public sector clients are included in the end market most aligned with work performed.

Contract costs (exclusive of depreciation and amortization)

Total contract costs, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, increased $1.6 million or 9.6% to $18.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to $16.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Total contract costs represented 49.8% and 52.4% of total contract revenue, respectively.

Direct payroll costs increased $2.0 million or 16.5% to $14.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to $12.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Direct payroll accounted for 77.7% of total contract costs for the three months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of 5.2 percentage points as compared to 72.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Direct labor, the component of direct payroll costs associated with the cost of labor relating to work performed on contracts increased $1.3 million or 14.1% to $10.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared $9.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, direct payroll costs represented 28.8% and 29.0% of gross contract revenue, respectively and represented 32.3% and 33.9% of the revenue attributable to our workforce, respectively.

Other direct payroll costs, the component of direct payroll costs associated with fringe and incentive compensation (cash and non-cash) increased by $0.7 million or 19.4% to $3.6 million as compared to $2.9 million. This increase includes $0.4 million in additional bonus accrual for our variable compensation program due to improved company metrics.

Sub-consultants and other direct expenses decreased $0.5 million or 10.9% to $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $4.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. For the three months ended June 31, 2021 and 2020, sub-consultant and other expenses represented 11.1% and 14.4% of gross contract revenue, respectively. This decrease is not indicative of an anticipated long-term shift in the composition of our gross contract revenue, and we expect to experience periodic volatility in concentration of sub-consultant utilization.

Operating Expense

Total operating expense increased $6.3 million or 50.8% to $18.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $12.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $5.1 million or 42.1% to $17.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to $12.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Indirect labor increased $1.2 million or 22.2% to $6.6 million as compared to $5.4 million and general overhead increased $1.2 million or 26.7% to $5.7 million as compared to $4.5 million in part because of increased costs associated with operating as a public company. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, in connection with our initial public offering, several new stock awards and event related bonuses were granted to employees. As a result, non-cash stock compensation increased $0.4 million or 57.1% to $1.1 million as compared to $0.7 million and other compensation increased $2.1 million to $2.4 million as compared to $0.3 million.

Depreciation and amortization increased $1.2 million or 400.0% to $1.5 million as compared to $0.3 million as a result of the conversion of our equipment and vehicle operating leases to capital leases on September 30, 2020. Gains on the sale of certain IT equipment and automobiles remained unchanged for the three months ended June 30, 2021 at less than $0.1 million of gain on the disposal of such assets.

Other (Income) Expense

Other (income) expense decreased by $0.3 million to $0.2 million of expense for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $0.1 million of income for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Income derived from incentives and rebates decreased by $0.1 million and interest expense increased by $0.1 million.

Income Tax Expense (Benefit)

Income tax expense decreased $1.3 million to a $0.1 million benefit, or 108.3%, from $1.2 million of expense for the three months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020. For the three months ended June 30, 2020 we were a cash basis taxpayer, which affects the timing of the payment of tax but not the expense of tax. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2021 decreased by 35.51 percentage points to 6.21% as compared to 41.72% for the three months ended June 30, 2020. This reduction in effective rate is primarily associated with the increase in non-cash stock expense as detailed above. Our effective rate contemplates an estimated $1.4 million research and development tax credit earned by the Company for work performed at risk.

Income (Loss) Before Tax and Net Income (Loss)

Income before tax expense decreased by $3.3 million or 117.9% to a $0.5 million loss for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to $2.8 million in income for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Net income decreased by $2.0 million or 125.0% to a $0.4 million loss for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to $1.6 million in income for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in net income is a result of transaction related expenses and expenses related to transitioning from a private to a public company, as described above.

Other financial information and Non-GAAP key performance indicators

Net service billing (non-GAAP)

Net service billing increased $5.3 million or 19.5% to $32.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to $27.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Net service billing reconciles to gross contract revenue in thousands as follows:

	For the Three Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020
Gross revenue	$	36,524	$	31,749
Less: sub-consultants and other direct expenses		4,065		4,581
Net services billing	$	32,459	$	27,168

Net service billing increased by 3.3 percentage points to 88.9% of gross contract revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to 85.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2020. This increase reflects a shift in contract mix and was positively affected by a net service billing to gross contract revenue ratio of 99.1% from acquired revenue.

Because sub-consultants and reimbursable expenses are most often pass-through items with little or no mark-up, they generally have a dilutive effect on gross, operating, and net margins while having little accretive effect on profitability. As such, where possible, we focus our resources and business development efforts principally on increasing revenue derived from our own workforce. Management primarily focusses its internal performance metrics on net service billing.

Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP)

Adjusted EBITDA decreased $0.9 million or 18.2% to $4.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $5.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Adjusted EBITDA reconciles to net income in thousands as follows:

	For the Three Months Ended June 30,
	2021			2020			$ Change			% Change
Net Income	$	(439	)	$	1,617		$	(2,056	)		(127.2	%)

Adjusted EBITDA	$	4,185		$	5,115		$	(930	)		(18.2	%)
Adjusted EBITDA margin, net		12.9	%		18.8	%

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020, adjusted EBITDA includes $1.6 million and $1.1 million, respectively, relating to non-cash stock compensation expenses resulting from the vesting of restricted stock awards and $1.4 million from expenses associated with our initial public offering. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, adjusted EBITDA includes $0.8 million relating to non-recurring lease expenses. On September 30, 2020, we refinanced our outstanding operating leases with Huntington Technology Finance and Enterprise Leasing to capital leases (see Credit Facilities and Other Financing herein). Accordingly, we increased our short- and long-term capital lease debt and eliminated all future rent expense relating to these operating leases. To present a meaningful representation of the impact of the new capital leasing structure on our consolidated financial results, and normalize the presentation of EBITDA, we added the non-recurring operating lease expenses to adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin, net (non-GAAP)

Adjusted EBITDA Margin, net represents Adjusted EBITDA (as defined above) as a percentage of net service billing (as defined above). For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, adjusted EBITDA Margin, net was 12.9% and 18.8% respectively. This decrease is in part the result of the income tax benefit (described above) during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and increased costs associated with operating as a public company.

Six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020

Gross Contract Revenue

Gross contract revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased $7.9 million or 13.1% to $68.3 million as compared to $60.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, gross contract revenue attributable to work performed by our workforce increased $9.4 million, or 18.1% to $61.3 million or 89.8% of gross contract revenue as compared to $51.9 million or 85.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 (see Net service billing – non-GAAP).

Changes in gross contract revenue (“GCR”) for the six months ended June 30, 2021, disaggregated between our core and emerging end markets, were as follows (in thousands other than percentages):

	For the Six Months Ended June 30,
Consolidated Gross Contract Revenue	2021		%GCR			2020		%GCR			Change			% Change
Communities, homes & buildings	$	46,224		67.7	%	$	36,009		59.7	%	$	10,215			28.4	%

¹represents renewable energy, mining, water resources and other

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, gross revenue from our communities, homes, and buildings (“CHB”) market increased $10.2 million as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase is attributable to a $4.3 million increase from residential and mixed-use projects, and a $5.9 million increase from commercial, municipal and other projects. Gross revenue derived from the acquisition of KTA was almost exclusively attributable to commercial projects. As the U.S. economy recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic, we are experiencing continued expansion of demand for our CHB services. We continue to maintain a positive outlook on this market and expect it to represent most of our gross revenue for the remainder of 2021.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, revenue from transportation decreased $2.0 million as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020. A reduction of $1.2 million in gross revenue due to the completion of two large transportation projects in Texas and $1.2 million of reduced gross revenue between a large construction management assignment in Illinois and a right-of-way assignment in Virginia were offset by increases in gross revenue from other assignments in Florida, Illinois and West Virginia. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we were awarded a three-year, $10 million task order contract from Cook County, Illinois relating to their Pavement Preservation and Rehabilitation program. We believe the transportation market continues to present significant opportunity for future growth and we remain committed to investing in leadership, technical expertise, and business development resources for this market.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, revenue from power and utilities remained unchanged as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020. The power and utilities market continues to experience increasing infrastructure investment as changing weather patterns, energy transition mandates and other safety initiatives positively impact demand for the services we provide. As evidenced by recent increases in program commitments within the gas pipeline market, we believe trends in power and utilities provide meaningful opportunity for continued growth and we are committed to investing resources accordingly.

Our emerging markets consist of renewable energy and energy efficiency, mining, water resources, and other natural resources services. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, revenue from emerging markets decreased $0.3 million as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020. Decreases in emerging market revenue included $0.5 million in reduced gross revenue in our Arizona mining operations offset by a $0.3 million increase in gross revenue from water resources and $0.1 million from other emerging markets such as alternative energies. Our mining services have specialized in copper mining, the demand for which is cyclical in nature and was negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Given forecasted increases in demand for copper and the reduced impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mining operators, we expect this market to grow over the next few years. Scarcities in water resources and the increasing need for water management gives us confidence that the water resources market will likewise grow and that we will be able to increase associated revenue accordingly, With the acquisition of KTA and the addition of other key leadership, we expect to experience continued growth from investment in renewable energy and energy transition.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, public sector customers, defined as direct contracts with municipalities, public agencies or governmental authorities, represented 14.1% and 16.1% of our gross contract revenue, respectively. Gross contract revenue from projects for public sector clients are included in the end market most aligned with work performed.

Contract costs (exclusive of depreciation and amortization)

Total contract costs, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, increased $2.1 million or 6.5% to $34.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to $32.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Total contract costs represented 50.3% and 53.3% of total contract revenue, respectively.

Direct payroll costs increased $3.6 million or 15.2% to $27.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $23.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Direct payroll accounted for 79.6% of total contract costs for the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of 5.9 percentage points as compared to 73.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Direct labor, the component of direct payroll costs associated with the cost of labor relating to work performed on contracts increased $1.8 million or 9.7% to $20.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared with $18.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, direct payroll costs represented 29.9% and 30.8% of gross contract revenue, respectively and represented 33.3% and 35.8% of the revenue attributable to our workforce, respectively.

Other direct payroll costs, the component of direct payroll costs associated with fringe and incentive compensation (cash and non-cash) increased by $1.9 million or 27.5% to $6.9 million as compared to $5.0 million. This increase includes an increase of $0.9 million in the cost of non-cash stock compensation to $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in non-cash stock compensation is a combination of new stock awards granted during the six months ended June 30, 2021, and a reduction in the discount rates used to calculate the net present value of the repurchase liability for the six months ended June 30, 2020. This increase also includes $0.7 million in additional bonus accrual for our variable compensation program due to improved company metrics.

Sub-consultants and other direct expenses decreased $1.5 million or 17.6% to $7.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $8.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, sub-consultant and other expenses represented 10.2% and 14.0% of gross contract revenue, respectively. This decrease is not indicative of a long-term shift in the composition of our gross contract revenue, and we expect to experience periodic volatility in concentration of sub-consultant utilization.

Operating Expense

Total operating expense increased $8.0 million or 32.3% to $32.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $24.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $5.8 million or 24.0% to $30.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to $24.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Indirect labor increased $1.7 million to $12.7 million as compared to $11.0 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, in connection with our initial public offering, several new stock awards and event related bonuses were granted to employees. As a result, non-cash stock compensation increased $1.3 million or 325% to $1.7 million as compared to $0.4 million and other compensation increased $2.2 million to $2.7 million as compared to $0.5 million.

Depreciation and amortization increased $2.3 million or 383.3% to $2.9 million as compared to $0.6 million because of the conversion of our equipment and vehicle operating leases to capital leases on September 30, 2020. Gains on the sale of certain IT

equipment and automobiles remained unchanged for the six months ended June 30, 2021 at less than $0.1 million of gain on the disposal of such assets.

Other (Income) Expense

Other (income) expense changed by $0.5 million to $0.4 million of expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $0.1 million of income for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Income derived from incentives and rebates decreased by $0.2 million and interest expense increased by $0.2 million.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense decreased by $1.2 million, or 85.7%, to $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Our income tax expense includes an estimated $1.4 million research and development tax credit earned by the Company for work performed at risk. Effective upon the completion of our initial public offering our tax status converted from cash basis to accrual basis, retroactive to January 1, 2021. This affects the timing of the payment of tax but not the expense of tax. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 decreased by 10.68 percentage points to 30.70% as compared to 41.38% for the six months ended June 30, 2020. This reduction in effective rate is primarily associated with the increase in non-cash stock expense detailed above and the elimination of non-deductible expenses associated with the liability to shares subject to repurchase and redeemable common stock. Excluding discrete items, our effective rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was 6.21%.

Income Before Tax and Net Income

Income before tax expense decreased by $2.7 million or 77.1% to $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Net income decreased by $1.5 million or 75.0% to $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in net income is a result of transaction related expenses and expenses related to transitioning from a private to a public company during the six months ended June 30, 2021, as described above.

Other financial information and Non-GAAP key performance indicators

Net service billing (non-GAAP)

Net service billing increased $9.4 million or 18.1% to $61.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $51.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Net service billing reconciles to gross revenue in thousands as follows:

Adjusted EBITDA Margin, net represents Adjusted EBITDA (as defined above) as a percentage of net service billing (as defined above). For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, adjusted EBITDA Margin, net was 13.5% and 12.9% respectively.

Backlog (other key performance metrics)

Our backlog increased $7.5 million or 6.5% to $123.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to $116.0 million at March 31, 2020 and $10.5 million or 9.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to $113.0 million at December 31, 2020. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 our backlog was comprised as follows:

	June 30, 2021			December 31, 2020
Communities, homes & buildings		50	%		43	%
Transportation		25	%		28	%
Power & Utilities		21	%		25	%

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash and cash equivalents balances, cash flow from operations, borrowing capacity under our credit facility, lease financing and proceeds from stock sales. Our principal uses of cash are operating expenses, working capital requirements, capital expenditures, repayment of debt, and acquisition related payments. Prior to September 30, 2020, we typically funded capital expenditures for vehicles, IT and design infrastructure, geomatics technology and field survey production equipment through operating lease facilities. On September 30, 2020, we refinanced our primary operating leases to capital leases. Our two primary lease finance providers are Huntington Technology Finance and Enterprise Leasing. We regularly monitor our capital requirements and believe our sources of liquidity, including existing cash, cash flow from operations and borrowing availability under our credit and lease facilities will be sufficient to fund our projected cash requirements and strategic initiatives for the next year.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods presented:

	For the Six Months Ended June 30,
Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows (amounts in thousands)	2021			2020
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities	$	(472	)	$	8,323
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities		(1,570	)		(1,442	)
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities		40,201			(6,167	)
Change in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash		38,159			714
Cash and cash equivalents, end of period		38,545			1,223

Operating Activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, net cash used in operating activities was $0.5 million, which primarily consisted of our $0.5 million net profit, adjusted for stock-based compensation expense of $2.7 million, depreciation and amortization expense of $2.9 million, and a decrease in deferred taxes of $1.3 million, offset by a net cash outflow of $5.5 million from changes in operating assets and liabilities. The net outflow from changes in operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to a $9.4 million increase in accounts receivable resulting from increased billing to our clients, a $1.1 million increase in prepaid expenses primarily due to the purchase of fiduciary directors and officer’s insurance and a $0.7 million increase in contract assets and liabilities, partially offset by a $5.8 million increase in accounts payable and accrued expense.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, net cash provided by operating activities was $8.3 million, which primarily consisted of our $2.0 million net profit, adjusted for stock-based compensation of $0.5 million and depreciation and amortization of $0.6 million and a net cash inflow of $4.4 million from changes in operating assets and liabilities. The net inflow from changes in operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to a $2.6 million increase in accounts payable and accrued expense, a $1.0 million increase in prepaid expense and a $0.7 million increase in contract assets and liabilities.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities increased by $0.2 million to $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in net cash used for investing is primarily attributable to the KTA acquisition inclusive of $0.6 million cash paid to the sellers in connection with the closing.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $40.2 million compared to net cash used in financing activities of $6.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of $46.4 million. The increase in net cash provided by financing is primarily attributable to net proceeds of $47.1 million from our initial public offering, net of underwriting discounts commissions and other offering costs, offset by $0.6 million of payments for the purchase of treasury stock.

Credit Facilities and Other Financing

On June 30, 2021, we maintained a $17.0 million revolving credit facility with Bank of America, our primary lender. Under the terms of the credit facility, available cash in our primary operating account sweeps against the outstanding balance every evening. As of June 30, 2021, we did not have a balance on this revolving line of credit as we used a portion of the net proceeds from our initial public offering to satisfy this obligation. On July 30, 2021, we entered into a Sixth Amendment to the Credit Agreement whereby the maturity date of the Revolving Line was extended to July 31, 2023. The Sixth Amendment eliminated the adjusted debt to EBITDA covenant along with certain administrative requirements and established the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) as the replacement for LIBOR. Additional modifications to the Revolving Line included expanded allowances for acquisition and reduced interest rate spreads, among other things.

We have master lease facilities with Huntington Technology Finance and Enterprise Leasing. The Huntington Technology Finance lease facility finances our acquisition of IT infrastructure, geomatics and survey equipment, furniture and other long-lived assets. The Enterprise lease facility finances the acquisition of field trucks and other service vehicles. We maintain a fleet of approximately 200 vehicles at any given time. Both leasing facilities allow for both operating and capital leasing. We treat operating lease payments as rental expenses included in selling, general and administrative expenses and allocate capital lease payments between amortization and interest. On September 30, 2020, we converted our Huntington and Enterprise operating leases to capital leases and recorded the associated equipment purchases and capital lease liability, current and non-current. The payment terms on the

lease agreements range between 30 and 50 months with payments totaling approximately $0.4 million per month. We use the incremental borrowing rate on our revolving line of credit, to calculate the present value on new leases.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no material off-balance sheet arrangements, no special purpose entities, and no activities that include non-exchange-traded contracts accounted for at fair value.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We use estimates in the determination of certain financial results. Estimates used in financial reporting utilize only information available to us at the time of formulation. These estimates are subject to change as new information becomes available.

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to the critical accounting policies relating to the use of estimates described in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our final prospectus filed with the SEC dated May 6, 2021.

In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology, such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “estimates,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “may,” “should,” “could” or the negative of such terms or similar expressions. The absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Accordingly, these statements involve estimates, assumptions and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in them. Any forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the factors discussed throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and projections about future events and they are subject to risks and uncertainties known and unknown that could cause actual results and developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include:

•

We engage in a highly competitive business. If we are unable to compete effectively, we could lose market share and our business and results of operations could be negatively impacted;

•

Our continued success is dependent upon our ability to hire, retain and utilize qualified personnel;

•

Our profitability could suffer if we are not able to maintain adequate utilization of our workforce due to slowdowns in the economy, reduced demand for our services or the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic;

•

If we are unable to integrate acquired businesses successfully, our business could be harmed;

•

We cannot assure you that we will achieve synergies and cost savings in connection with prior or future acquisitions;

•

Demand from clients is cyclical and vulnerable to economic downturns. If the economy weakens or client spending declines, our financial results may be impacted;

•

Construction, roadway, mining, and maintenance sites are inherently dangerous workplaces. If we, the owner, or others working at such sites fail to maintain safe work conditions, we can be exposed to significant financial losses and reputational harm, as well as civil and criminal liabilities;

•

Our services expose us to significant risks of liability, and our insurance policies may not provide adequate coverage;

•

We cannot assure you that we will renew our revolving credit facility on favorable terms;

•

The contracts in our backlog may be adjusted, cancelled or suspended by our clients and, therefore, our backlog is not necessarily indicative of our future revenues or earnings. Additionally, even if fully performed, our backlog is not a good indicator of future gross profit;

•

The nature of our contracts, particularly those that are fixed price, subject us to risks of cost overruns. We may experience reduced profits or, in some cases, losses if costs increase above budgets or estimates or if the project experiences schedule delays;

•

Governmental agencies may modify, curtail or terminate our contracts at any time prior to their completion and, if we do not replace them, we may suffer a decline in revenue;

•

Our failure to comply with a variety of complex procurement rules and regulations could damage our reputation and result in our being liable for penalties, including termination of our government contracts, disqualification from bidding on future government contracts and suspension or debarment from government contracting;

•

We are dependent on third parties to complete certain elements of our contracts;

•

Our quarterly results may fluctuate significantly, which could have a material negative effect on the price of our common stock;

•

If we fail to develop or maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which would harm our business and the trading price of our common stock;

•

Our disclosure controls and procedures may not prevent or detect all errors or acts of fraud;

•

Anti-takeover provisions under our charter documents and Delaware law could delay or prevent a change of control, which could limit the market price of our common stock and may prevent or frustrate attempts by our stockholders to replace or remove our current management;

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except to the extent required by applicable laws or rules. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict which factors will arise. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor of our business or to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. We qualify all of the information presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and particularly our forward-looking statements, by these cautionary statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to provide the information required by this item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”). Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to reasonably assure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. We believe that any disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are subject to various legal proceedings that arise in the normal course of our business activities. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we are not party to any litigation, the outcome of which if determined adversely to us, would individually or in the aggregate be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

As a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to provide the information required by this item.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds – not yet updated

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

There were no sales of unregistered equity securities during the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Use of Proceeds

On May 11, 2021, we closed our IPO, in which we sold 3,690,000 of our common stock at $14.00 per share resulting in net proceeds of $48.0 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions. The offer and sale of the shares in our IPO were registered under the Securities Act on Form S-1 (File No. 333-255076) which was declared effective by the SEC on May 6, 2021.

We utilized a portion of our net proceeds to satisfy our obligation under our revolving line of credit and to pay expenses associated with the offering. We expect to use the remaining net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including organic expansion and the funding of potential acquisitions.
