CEO Commentary

"We are pleased with the solid financial results for the first half of the year. SNCL Engineering Services delivered robust second quarter performance led by strong profitability within our three segments. Our LSTK projects progressed well, the related backlog continued to decrease, and discussions with our clients on compensation for the additional costs related to COVID-19 impacts have been constructive," said Ian L. Edwards, President and CEO of SNC-Lavalin Group Inc. "We are also pleased to have recently closed the sale of a substantial portion of our Resources Oil & Gas business, which represents an important strategic milestone for the Company. With these second quarter results and the current trends across our businesses, we remain on track to meet our 2021 outlook expectations."

Second Quarter Results

Professional Services & Project Management are collectively referred to as "PS&PM" to distinguish them from "Capital" activities. PS&PM groups together five of the Company's segments, namely Engineering, Design and Project Management ("EDPM"), Nuclear, Infrastructure Services, Resources and Infrastructure EPC projects, while Capital is its own reportable segment and separate from PS&PM.

The Company's net income from continuing operations attributable to SNC-Lavalin shareholders was $29.2 million, or $0.17 per diluted share in Q2 2021, compared to a net loss from continuing operations attributable to SNC-Lavalin shareholders of $25.3 million, or $(0.14) per diluted share, for the corresponding period in 2020. This was comprised of net income from continuing operations from PS&PM of $26.1 million, or $0.15 per diluted share and net income from continuing operations from Capital of $3.1 million, or $0.02 per diluted share in Q2 2021. For the corresponding period in 2020, net loss from continuing operations was comprised of a net loss from continuing operations from PS&PM of $31.9 million, or $(0.18) per diluted share and net income from continuing operations from Capital of $6.6 million, or $0.04 per diluted share.

Q2 2021 net income included amortization of intangible assets related to business combinations of $20.5 million ($17.2 million after income taxes or $0.10 per diluted share) and restructuring and transformation costs of $15.2 million ($11.3 million after income taxes or $0.06 per diluted share), while Q2 2020 included amortization of intangible assets related to business combinations of $40.0 million ($32.7 million after income taxes or $0.19 per diluted share) and restructuring and transformation costs of $23.9 million ($20.9 million after income taxes or $0.12 per diluted share).

Adjusted net income from PS&PM⁽⁴⁾ in Q2 2021 more than doubled and totaled $53.8 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, compared with $21.7 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, for Q2 2020. The increase was mainly due to an increase of 9.5% in Segment Adjusted EBIT⁽¹⁾ from SNCL Engineering Services and a decrease in the negative Segment Adjusted EBIT⁽¹⁾ in SNCL Projects, partially offset by a higher income taxes expense.

The SNCL Engineering Services line of business (comprised of the EDPM, Nuclear and Infrastructure Services segments) continued to deliver solid results, benefitting from a diversified business model, long-term client relationships and a strong public sector focus.

Revenue from SNCL Engineering Services increased by 2.4% to $1,504.3 million in Q2 2021, compared to the corresponding period in 2020. Based on constant currency⁽⁹⁾, revenue increased  6.8%. Segment Adjusted EBIT⁽¹⁾ totaled $145.1 million in Q2 2021, representing a margin of 9.6%, a 63 basis points improvement, compared with Q2 2020. SNCL Engineering Services total backlog amounted to $11.1 billion as at June 30, 2021, compared to $11.0 billion as at June 30, 2020. Total bookings for the first six months of the year amounted to $3.3 billion, representing a 1.08 booking-to-revenue ratio⁽⁶⁾.

EDPM revenue increased by 0.2% to $935.3 million in Q2 2021, compared to Q2 2020. Based on constant currency⁽⁹⁾, revenue increased by 5.3% driven primarily by strong volumes in the United Kingdom. EDPM Segment Adjusted EBIT⁽¹⁾ totaled $85.4 million, representing a margin of 9.1% in Q2 2021, a 70 basis points improvement compared to Q2 2020. The Segment Adjusted EBIT⁽¹⁾ improvement in Q2 2021 mainly reflected the continued solid performance seen across the United Kingdom and the United States with steady productivity and the impact of settling a number of project final accounts. Backlog was strong at June 30, 2021, at $3.0 billion, an increase of 11.7% compared to June 30, 2020. Bookings in Q2 2021 totaled $1.1 billion, representing a 1.13 booking-to-revenue ratio⁽⁶⁾.

Nuclear revenue increased by 6.1% to $234.7 million in Q2 2021, compared to Q2 2020. Based on constant currency⁽⁹⁾, revenue increased 9.6% driven by an increased level of activity in North America and Europe, partially offset by a decrease in Asia. Nuclear Segment Adjusted EBIT⁽¹⁾ totaled $33.2 million in Q2 2021, representing a margin of 14.2%, a 19 basis points improvement compared to Q2 2020. Backlog totaled $0.8 billion at June 30, 2021, a decrease of 16.7% compared to June 30, 2020. The backlog decrease over the last twelve months was mainly due to the progress on the Company's major refurbishment long-term contracts in Canada.

Infrastructure Services revenue increased by 6.3% to $334.3 million in Q2 2021, compared to Q2 2020. Based on constant currency⁽⁹⁾, revenue increased 9.2% driven mainly by a higher volume of activities in Linxon. Infrastructure Services Segment Adjusted EBIT⁽¹⁾ totaled $26.4 million in Q2 2021, representing a margin of 7.9%, a 65 basis point improvement compared to Q2 2020. Backlog totaled $7.2 billion at June 30, 2021, in line with June 30, 2020. Bookings in Q2 2021 totaled $0.3 billion, representing a 0.86 booking-to-revenue ratio⁽⁶⁾. Infrastructure Services backlog includes long-term Operations & Maintenance contracts, which can cover periods of up to 40 years.

Backlog for the SNCL Projects line of business (comprised of the Resources and Infrastructure EPC Projects segments) as at June 30, 2021, totaled $1.8 billion and included $1.4 billion of LSTK construction contracts and $0.4 billion of reimbursable and engineering services contracts. SNCL Projects backlog for LSTK construction contracts decreased by $202.4 million in Q2 2021, as the Company continued to execute on its LSTK projects.

SNCL Projects revenues amounted to $273.7 million in Q2 2021, compared to $168.9 million in Q2 2020. SNCL Projects Segment Adjusted EBIT⁽¹⁾ was negative $21.3 million in Q2 2021, compared to a negative Segment Adjusted EBIT⁽¹⁾ of $91.4 million in Q2 2020. The variance was mainly due to the Resources segment, which recorded a positive Segment Adjusted EBIT⁽¹⁾ of $1.0 million in Q2 2021, compared to a negative Segment Adjusted EBIT⁽¹⁾ of $72.4 million in Q2 2020, which included a $70 million charge related to client disputes on a Resources LSTK project. The Infrastructure EPC Projects segment had a negative Segment Adjusted EBIT⁽¹⁾ of $22.2 million in Q2 2021, compared to a negative Segment Adjusted EBIT⁽¹⁾ of $19.0 million in Q2 2020. The loss in Q2 2021 was mainly due to a reduction in gross margin, including costs in closing out certain projects nearing completion and the impacts of COVID-19.

As announced earlier today, the Company has closed the sale of a substantial portion of its Resources Oil & Gas business pursuant to the previously announced binding agreement with Kentech Corporate Holding Limited dated February 9, 2021. The balance of closing, which constitutes the Saudi Arabian portion of the business, is expected to be completed by the end of Q3 2021, following the anticipated receipt of standard Saudi Arabian regulatory approval. This portion of the business represented approximately a quarter of the Resources Oil & Gas business total annual revenues.

Capital

	Q2 2021	Q2 2020	YTD 2021^A	YTD 2020^A
Revenue	19,785	21,588	41,518	67,830
Segment Adjusted EBIT^(1)	16,405	18,375	35,127	60,403
Backlog as of June 30			148,700	166,900

All figures in thousands of dollars

^AYTD includes the six months ended June 30

Capital revenue and Segment Adjusted EBIT⁽¹⁾ totaled $19.8 million and $16.4 million, respectively, in Q2 2021, compared to $21.6 million and $18.4 million, respectively, in Q2 2020. The variance was mainly due to lower contributions from certain investments.

Financial Position and Operating Cash Flow

As at June 30, 2021, the Company had $662.9 million of cash and cash equivalents. The Company also has an additional $2.0 billion of available drawing capacity under its revolving credit facility. As at June 30, 2021, the Company had $1.0 billion of recourse debt and $0.4 billion of limited recourse debt and its net recourse debt to EBITDA ratio⁽⁷⁾ calculated in accordance with the terms of the Company's Credit Agreement was 1.8, below the required covenant level of 3.75.

The Company's net cash generated from operating activities was $78.1 million in Q2 2021, compared to $129.8 million in Q2 2020. Net cash generated from operating activities in SNCL Engineering Services totaled $157 million in Q2 2021. The Company continues to anticipate that its net cash generated from operating activities in 2021 will be broadly breakeven, as positive operating cash flow from SNCL Engineering Services is expected to be largely offset by an operating cash flow usage in SNCL Projects.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures and Additional IFRS Measures

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with IFRS. However, the following non-IFRS measures and additional IFRS measures are used by the Company in this press release: Revenues presented on a constant currency basis, Segment Adjusted EBIT, Segment Adjusted EBIT to revenue ratio, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to SNC-Lavalin shareholders, Adjusted diluted EPS, Booking-to-revenue ratio, and Adjusted EBITDA from PS&PM to revenue from PS&PM ratio. Additional details for these non-IFRS measures can be found below or in Section 9 of SNC-Lavalin's Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") for the second quarter of 2021, filed with the securities regulatory authorities in Canada, available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on the Company's website at www.snclavalin.com under the "Investors" section. Certain revenue figures and changes thereto from prior periods are analyzed and presented on a constant currency basis and are obtained by translating financial results from the comparable periods of the prior year denominated in foreign currencies at the foreign exchange rates of the current periods. Non-IFRS financial measures do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Management believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, these non-IFRS measures provide additional insight into the Company's operating performance and financial position and certain investors may use this information to evaluate the Company's performance from period to period. However, these non-IFRS financial measures have limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Furthermore, certain non-IFRS financial measures and additional IFRS measures are presented separately for PS&PM, by excluding components related to Capital, as the Company believes that such measures are useful as these PS&PM activities are usually analyzed separately by the Company. Reconciliations of non-IFRS measures to the most comparable IFRS measures are set forth in Section 9.4 of the second quarter 2021 MD&A and certain of those reconciliations are set out at the end of this press release.

⁽¹⁾ Segment Adjusted EBIT consists of revenues allocated to the applicable segment less i) direct costs of activities, ii) directly related selling, general and administrative expenses, and iii) corporate selling, general and administrative expenses that are allocated to segments. Segment Adjusted EBIT is the measure used by management to evaluate the performance of the Company's segments, and gives investors an indication of the profitability of each segment, as it excludes certain items that the Company believes are not reflective of the segment's underlying operations. Such financial measure also facilitates period-to-period comparisons of the underlying segment's performance. Expenses that are not allocated to the Company's segments are: certain corporate selling, general and administrative expenses that are not directly related to projects or segments, impairment loss arising from expected credit losses, gain (loss) arising on financial assets (liabilities) at fair value through profit or loss, restructuring and transformation costs, amortization of intangible assets related to business combinations, gains (losses) on disposals of PS&PM businesses and Capital investments (or adjustments to gains or losses on such disposals), gain on remeasurement of assets of disposal group classified as held for sale to fair value less cost to sell, net financial expenses and income taxes. It should be noted that the following adjustments were removed from the list of adjustments disclosed in prior periods as there was no adjustment of this nature in the current periods and the previous year: acquisition-related costs and integration costs and the Federal charges settlement (PPSC) expense. See a reconciliation of total Segment Adjusted EBIT to net income (loss) in the Q2 2021 MD&A, Section 4.

⁽²⁾ Segment Adjusted EBIT to segment revenue ratio is a measure used to analyze the profitability of the Company's segments and facilitate period-to-period comparisons, as well as comparison with peers. This financial measure is calculated by dividing the amount of Segment Adjusted EBIT of a given period by the amount of segment revenue for the same period. See a reconciliation of Segment Adjusted EBIT to segment revenue ratio in the Q2 2021 MD&A, Section 4.

⁽³⁾ Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure used by management to facilitate operating performance comparison from period to period and to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts. Adjusted EBITDA is based on EBITDA from continuing operations and excludes charges related to restructuring and transformation costs, gains (losses) on disposals of PS&PM businesses and Capital investments (or adjustments to gains or losses on such disposals), the adjustment to provision for the Pyrrhotite Case litigation (described in Note 33 to the 2020 Annual Financial Statements, as updated in Note 12 to the Company's unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2021), the fair value revaluation of the Highway 407 ETR contingent consideration receivable, the Guaranteed Minimum Pension ("GMP") equalization expenses and the gain on remeasurement of assets of disposal group classified as held for sale to fair value less cost to sell. It should be noted that the following adjustments were removed from the list of adjustments disclosed in prior periods as there was no adjustment of this nature in the current periods and the previous year: acquisition-related costs and integration costs and the Federal charges settlement (PPSC) expense. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful for providing securities analysts, investors and others with additional information to assist them in understanding components of its financial results, including a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company's operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is believed to supplement information provided, as it highlights trends that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS financial measures. Refer to the Q2 2021 MD&A, Section 9.4 for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) from continuing operations as determined under IFRS. Such reconciliation is provided on a consolidated basis and also separately for PS&PM activities, as the Company believes that such measures are useful since these PS&PM activities are analyzed separately by the Company.

⁽⁴⁾ Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to SNC-Lavalin shareholders is defined as net income (loss) attributable to SNC-Lavalin shareholders from continuing operations, adjusted for certain specific items that are significant but are not, based on management's judgement, reflective of the Company's underlying operations. These adjustments are restructuring and transformation costs, amortization of intangible assets related to business combinations, gains (losses) on disposals of PS&PM businesses and Capital investments (or adjustments to gains or losses on such disposals), the fair value revaluation of the Highway 407 ETR contingent consideration receivable, the adjustment to provision for the Pyrrhotite Case litigation, gain on remeasurement of assets of disposal group classified as held for sale to fair value less cost to sell, the GMP equalization expense, as well as income taxes and non-controlling interests on these adjustments. It should be noted that the following adjustments were removed from the list of adjustments disclosed in prior periods as there was no adjustment of this nature in the current and comparative periods: acquisition-related costs and integration costs, financing costs related to the agreement to sell shares of Highway 407 ETR and the federal charges settlement (PPSC) expense. The Company believes that Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to SNC-Lavalin shareholders is useful for providing securities analysts, investors and others with additional information to assist them in understanding components of its financial results, including a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company's operating performance. Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to SNC-Lavalin shareholders is believed to supplement information provided, as it highlights trends that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS financial measures. It is also used by management to evaluate the performance of the activities of the Company from period to period. Refer to the Q2 2021 MD&A, Section 9.4 for a reconciliation of Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to SNC-Lavalin shareholders to net income (loss) as determined under IFRS. Such reconciliation is provided on a consolidated basis and also separately for PS&PM activities, as the Company believes that such measures are useful since these PS&PM activities are analyzed separately by the Company.

 ⁽⁵⁾ Adjusted diluted earnings per share ("Adjusted diluted EPS") is defined as adjusted net income (loss) attributable to SNC-Lavalin shareholders from continuing operations, divided by the diluted weighted average number of outstanding shares for the period. Adjusted diluted EPS is a non-IFRS financial measure that is an indicator of the financial performance of the Company's activities and allows the Company to present the adjusted net income (loss) attributable to SNC-Lavalin shareholders on a diluted share basis. Refer to the Q2 2021 MD&A, Section 9.4 for a reconciliation of Adjusted diluted EPS to diluted EPS (namely, net income (loss) per diluted share) as determined under IFRS. Such reconciliation is provided on a consolidated basis and also separately for PS&PM activities, as the Company believes that such measures are useful since these PS&PM activities are usually analyzed separately by the Company.

 ⁽⁶⁾ Booking-to-revenue ratio corresponds to contract bookings divided by revenues, for a given period. This measure provides a useful basis for assessing the renewal of business, as it compares the value of performance obligations added in a given period to the amount of revenue recognized upon satisfying performance obligations in the same given period.

⁽⁷⁾ While net recourse debt and EBITDA are non-IFRS measures, the reference to the ratio of "net recourse debt to EBITDA" is a defined term under and calculated in accordance with the Company's Credit Agreement and is not a specific reference to the actual non-IFRS measures in question.

⁽⁸⁾ Adjusted EBITDA from PS&PM to revenue from PS&PM ratio is a measure used to analyze the profitability of the Company's PS&PM line of business and facilitate period-to-period comparisons, as well as comparison with peers. This financial measure is calculated by dividing the amount of Segment Adjusted EBITDA from PS&PM of a given period to the amount of revenue from PS&PM for the same period.

⁽⁹⁾ Revenue figures and changes from prior period are analyzed and presented on a constant currency basis and are obtained by translating revenues from the comparable period of the prior year denominated in foreign currencies at the foreign exchange rates of the current period. The Company believes that this non-IFRS financial measure is useful to compare its performance that excludes certain elements prone to volatility.
