BROOKLYN, N.Y. / (BUSINESS WIRE) -- SG Blocks, Inc. (Nasdaq: SGBX) (“SG Blocks” or the “Company”), a leading designer, innovator and fabricator of container-based structures, reported its financial results for the third quarter ending September 30, 2020.
“The third quarter was a strong quarter for SG Blocks, as we accelerated our momentum from the first half of the year,” stated Paul Galvin, SG Blocks’ Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Importantly, in addition to a growing pipeline of active and pending projects, we were extremely pleased to execute our agreement to acquire the assets of ECHO DCL, with the right of first refusal to acquire the building and land. ECHO DCL—re-named SG Echo—offers us an opportunity to vertically integrate a large portion of our supply chain, giving us better control of inventory and production, while allowing for better margins, productivity and efficiency for design, engineering, manufacturing and delivery.
“We announced strong activity across all of our major verticals during the quarter. Major announcements included our partnership with Clarity Lab Solutions to deliver CLIA-certified laboratories to facilitate on site COVID testing utilizing our exclusive distribution rights to OSANG’s GeneFinderTM test kits. Demand for these facilities is booming, and we have announced projects to deliver modular labs in Boca Raton, Florida, at Los Angeles Airport, and to Memorial Healthcare in Wayne County, Michigan. Additionally, our joint venture partnership, Clarity Mobile Venture, was one of the approved TTP providers for state mandated testing and diagnostic services in order to by-pass the 14-day quarantine for passengers arriving in Hawaii. In our commercial vertical, we partnered with Grimshaw to create and deliver modular units for educational systems to help alleviate the current strain on existing space due to the impact of COVID-19, and subsequent to quarter end, we announced a partnership with Blink, a leader in electric vehicle charging equipment, to deploy charging stations nationwide.”
Mr. Galvin concluded, “Amid great uncertainty in 2020, we are thriving because of the durability and innovative design of our products, and the speed and efficiency with which we can deploy our finished boxes. We have spent many years building a strong foundation, and I believe we are now positioned to benefit from growing project activity that should drive increased earnings and cash flow through year end and into 2021. I would like to thank the entire SG Blocks team for all of your hard work and dedication this year.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to its results under GAAP, the Company presents EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for historical periods. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures and have been presented as supplemental measures of financial performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. The Company calculates EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, income tax benefit (expense), depreciation and amortization. It calculates Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA before certain non-recurring adjustments such stock-based compensation expense. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are presented because they are important metrics used by management as one of the means by which it assesses the Company’s financial performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are also frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in the Company’s industry. These measures, when used in conjunction with related GAAP financial measures, provide investors with an additional financial analytical framework that may be useful in assessing the Company and its results of operations.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have certain limitations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss), or any other measures of financial performance derived in accordance with GAAP. These measures also should not be construed as an inference that the Company’s future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items for which these non-GAAP measures make adjustments. Additionally, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to be liquidity measures because of certain limitations, including, but not limited to: i) they do not reflect the Company’s cash outlays for capital expenditures; They do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital; and Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets are being depreciated and amortized and may have to be replaced in the future, and these non-GAAP measures do not reflect cash requirements for such replacements.
The non-GAAP information should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes.

The following is a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to the nearest GAAP measure, net loss:
In evaluating EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we will incur expenses that are the same or similar to some of the adjustments made in our calculations, and our presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed to mean that our future results will be unaffected by such adjustment. Management compensates for these limitations by using EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental financial metrics and in conjunction with our results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP information should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes.
