Third 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.
- Q3 2021 consolidated net income from continuing operations attributable to SNC-Lavalin shareholders of $18.6 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, up $27.4 million and $0.16, respectively, compared to Q3 2020.
- Net income from continuing operations from PS&PM of $7.8 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, up $42.1 million and $0.24, respectively, compared to Q3 2020.
- Adjusted net income from PS&PM(5) of $40.4 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, up $42.9 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, compared to Q3 2020. The increase was mainly due to lower income taxes and net financial expenses, partially offset by higher Corporate selling, general and administrative expenses. The increase in Corporate selling, general and administrative expenses was principally attributable to revised estimates on certain long-term employee incentives, an increase in certain insurance provisions and the in-year phasing of spend on digital initiatives.
- Net income from continuing operations from Capital of $10.8 million, or $0.06 per diluted share in Q3 2021, down $14.7 million and $0.09, respectively, compared to Q3 2020.
- Q3 2021 net income from discontinued operations of $582.1 million, compared to a net loss from discontinued operations of $76.3 million in Q3 2020, as Q3 2021 includes a net gain on disposal of the Oil & Gas business of $577.8 million, mainly due to the reclassification to net income of the cumulative exchange differences on translating foreign operations upon disposal of such operations.
- Net income from continuing operations attributable to SNC-Lavalin shareholders included:
- Amortization of intangible assets related to business combinations of $22.3 million ($17.7 million after income taxes or $0.10 per diluted share) in Q3 2021, compared to $23.2 million ($18.9 million after income taxes or $0.11 per diluted share) in Q3 2020;
- Restructuring and transformation costs of $19.2 million ($14.3 million after income taxes or $0.08 per diluted share) in Q3 2021, compared to $7.1 million ($5.4 million after income taxes or $0.03 per diluted share) in Q3 2020.

Backlog for the SNCL Projects line of business (comprised of the Infrastructure EPC Projects and Resources segments) continued to decrease as the Company executes and progresses on its remaining LSTK projects.
- SNCL Projects total backlog of $1.5 billion as at September 30, 2021.
- LSTK construction contracts of $1.2 billion as at September 30, 2021, down by $235.8 million from June 30, 2021, and down by $679.7 million from December 31, 2020.
- Reimbursable and engineering services contracts of $0.4 billion as at September 30, 2021, in line with September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2020.
- Negative Segment Adjusted EBIT(2) of $29.5 million in Q3 2021, compared to a negative Segment Adjusted EBIT(2) of $28.4 million in Q3 2020. The Q3 2021 loss was mainly due to the Infrastructure EPC Projects segment, principally attributable to higher close out costs on certain projects and varying impacts of COVID-19 on productivity and supply chain costs.

- Net cash generated from operating activities in SNCL Engineering Services of $77 million in Q3 2021 ($352 million year-to-date).
2021 Outlook Update
The following statements are based on current expectations. These statements are forward-looking and the actual results could differ materially. The 2021 Outlook section should be read in conjunction with the information on forward-looking statements at the end of this release.
- The Company continues to expect that SNCL Engineering Services revenue for full year 2021 should increase by a low single digit percentage, reflecting current currency rates, compared to 2020.
- The Company has tightened its SNCL Engineering Services Segment Adjusted EBIT to segment revenue ratio(3), which is now expected to be between 9.0% and 9.5% for the full year 2021 (in line or higher than the SNCL Engineering Services Segment Adjusted EBIT to segment revenue ratio(3) of 9.0% in 2020).
- The Company continues to expect that consolidated net cash generated from operating activities in 2021 to 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.
This outlook is based on the assumptions and methodology described in the Company's Annual 2020 Management's Discussion and Analysis under the heading, "How We Budget and Forecast Our Results" and the "Forward-Looking Statements" section below and is subject to the risks and uncertainties summarized therein and in the Company's 2020 Annual Management's Discussion and Analysis.

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 third 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 growth figures are determined on a constant currency basis using financial results from the comparable periods of the prior year denominated in foreign currencies translated 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 below and in Sections 4 and 9.4 of the third quarter 2021 MD&A.
(1) 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. See also Q3 2021 MD&A, Section 4. The Company believes that this non-IFRS financial measure is useful to compare its performance that excludes certain elements prone to volatility. |
(2) 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 instruments 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 Q3 2021 MD&A, Section 4. |
(3) 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 Q3 2021 MD&A, Section 4. |
(4) 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 nine-month periods ended September 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 Q3 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 (all adjustments listed above apply to PS&PM activities, except for the fair value revaluation of the Highway 407 ETR contingent consideration receivable and gains (losses) on disposals of Capital investments (or adjustments to gains or losses on such disposals), which only apply to Capital), as the Company believes that such measures are useful since these PS&PM activities are analyzed separately by the Company. |
(5) 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 Q3 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 (all adjustments listed above apply to PS&PM activities, except for the fair value revaluation of the Highway 407 ETR contingent consideration receivable and gains (losses) on disposals of Capital investments (or adjustments to gains or losses on such disposals), which only apply to Capital), as the Company believes that such measures are useful since these PS&PM activities are analyzed separately by the Company. |
(6) 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 Q3 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. |
(7) 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. |
(8) 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. |
(9) 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. Refer to the Q3 2021 MD&A, Section 9.4 for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA from PS&PM to net income (loss) from continuing operations as determined under IFRS. |
