Forward guidance

Great Lakes expects stronger results in the second half of 2021 due to project activity and backlog, but does not anticipate fully achieving original expectations for the year. The domestic bid market is expected to remain strong.

Tailwinds

  • Project activity in which we are currently engaged.
  • Coupled with our backlog.
  • New project awards.
  • Fewer vessel drydocks for the remainder of the year.
  • Expect the domestic bid market to be just as strong this year as it was in 2020.

Headwinds

  • COVID-19 pandemic impact on operations.
  • Related project performance issues.
  • Not expect the stronger second half to fully allow us to achieve our original expectations for 2021.
  • Lower than expected margins on several jobs.
  • Continued to incur COVID related costs and experienced increased operational challenges during the second quarter of the year.
