Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Babcock & Wilcox Enterprises reported a sharp turnaround for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. Revenue rose to $319.7 million, a 130% increase from $138.9 million a year earlier, driven largely by large project volume including $100.7 million from the Base Electron data center project. Net income was $14.3 million versus a net loss of $58.5 million, and earnings per share were $0.07 compared with a loss of $0.63. Adjusted EBITDA increased to $21.8 million from $13.9 million. Bookings were $151.0 million, while backlog reached $2.6 billion, up 533% from the prior-year period, and the identified project pipeline exceeds $14.0 billion.

The company raised its full-year 2026 Adjusted EBITDA target to a range of $80.0 million to $105.0 million. At June 30, 2026, cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $382.8 million against secured debt and bonds of $239.8 million, and management highlighted “cash in excess of debt of ~$143 million.” B&W announced a share repurchase authorization of up to $50 million and plans to repurchase the remaining $61.8 million of bonds due December 2026. Management emphasized strong demand from AI data centers and baseload generation, while also noting macro headwinds such as inflation, labor constraints and supply-chain disruptions.

Positive

  • Revenue surged 130% year-over-year to $319.7 million in Q2 2026, reflecting strong large-project volume including $100.7 million from the Base Electron data center project.
  • Profitability improved sharply, with Q2 net income of $14.3 million versus a net loss of $58.5 million and Adjusted EBITDA rising to $21.8 million from $13.9 million.
  • Backlog expanded to $2.6 billion, a 533% increase from the prior-year period, supported by $151.0 million in quarterly bookings and a global pipeline above $14.0 billion.
  • The company raised its 2026 Adjusted EBITDA target to $80.0–$105.0 million, signaling management’s confidence in ongoing business momentum.
  • Liquidity strengthened with $382.8 million in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash versus $239.8 million of secured debt and bonds, and management cites cash in excess of debt of roughly $143 million.
  • Capital allocation initiatives include a $50 million share repurchase authorization and planned repurchase of the remaining $61.8 million of bonds due December 2026, reducing near-term debt.
  • A $2.4 billion, 1.2 GW power project for Base Electron and additional 1 GW of steam turbines secured from Siemens Energy highlight sizable AI data center-related growth opportunities.

Negative

  • Despite quarterly profitability, trailing twelve months net income from continuing operations was ($75.1 million), indicating the overall business is still loss-making over the last year.
  • Customer warrants grew to a $136.9 million current liability from $8.3 million, and related fair-value changes and amortization significantly affect earnings and non-GAAP adjustments.
  • Management cites risks including potential future conditions that could raise substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern, along with refinancing obligations on 6.50% Senior Notes.
  • Macroeconomic headwinds such as inflation, supply chain disruptions and skilled labor shortages are described as ongoing and could adversely impact project execution and future operating results.

Filing Explained

The filing reports operating cash generation alongside financing inflows from net common-stock issuance.

The August 10, 2026 Form 8-K furnishes B&W’s completed second-quarter results and records six-month net common-stock issuance, a financing event relevant to existing holders’ ownership.

The company’s raised $80.0 million to $105.0 million 2026 Adjusted EBITDA target is forward-looking and is expressly not presented as guidance.

Reported second-quarter net income was $14.3 million, while adjusted net income was $9.1 million after excluding non-cash warrant and stock-related costs; the filing therefore presents both GAAP earnings and a management-defined adjusted measure.

For the six months ended June 30, 2026, operating activities provided cash, while financing activities provided cash including net common-stock issuance; the reported cash increase consequently included substantial financing inflows rather than coming from operations alone.

Issuing additional shares increases the total share count and reduces an existing holder’s percentage ownership absent offsetting changes, but this filing does not state how many shares comprise the six-month issuance. The announced repurchase of the remaining $61.8 million of bonds due in December 2026 remains an announced future transaction rather than a completed repayment in this filing.

Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of $21.8 million, a 57% increase compared to the same period of 2025"
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
backlog financial
"Backlog of $2.6 billion in the second quarter, a 533% increase compared to the same period of 2025"
A backlog is the amount of work or orders that a company has received but hasn't completed yet. It’s like a restaurant with many dishes to serve; the backlog shows how many orders are still waiting to be finished. It matters because a large backlog can indicate strong demand or potential delays in delivering products or services.
pipeline financial
"Pipeline represents our uncontracted, potential opportunities, which have been identified and are in active discussions"
A pipeline is the organized list of products, drugs or projects a company is developing but has not yet fully launched or commercialized. For investors it acts like a forecasted inventory of future revenue sources — showing what could become earnings, how far along each item is, and the risk and time before they might pay off; think of it as a company’s product roadmap that helps gauge growth potential and uncertainty.
customer warrants financial
"Change in fair value of customer warrants | 5.9 | | | — | | | (64.4)"
stock appreciation rights financial
"Stock appreciation rights issued in 2018 for target stock price of $22.50 and $25.00"
Stock appreciation rights (SARs) are a form of employee compensation that give the holder the right to receive the increase in a company's stock price over a set baseline, paid in cash or shares, without having to buy the stock. For investors, SARs matter because they can create future cash outflows or share dilution and signal how a company rewards and motivates executives — similar to giving a bonus tied directly to how well the company’s stock performs.
going concern financial
"the potential for future conditions that could raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern"
Going concern is the accounting assumption that a company will keep operating and meeting its obligations for the foreseeable future. The phrase matters most when a company or its auditors disclose substantial doubt about it, a formal warning that the business may not have enough resources to continue without raising money, restructuring, or selling assets. That language in a filing or press release signals elevated financial risk.
Revenue $319.7 million 130% increase versus $138.9 million in Q2 2025
Net income $14.3 million Improved from net loss of $58.5 million in Q2 2025
Adjusted EBITDA $21.8 million Increased from $13.9 million in Q2 2025
Earnings per share $0.07 Improved from loss per share of $0.63 in Q2 2025

(AKRON, Ohio – August 10, 2026) – Babcock & Wilcox Enterprises, Inc. ("B&W", "Babcock & Wilcox" or the "Company") (NYSE: BW) announced its financial results for the second quarter of 2026.

"During the second quarter of 2026, we delivered strong operating results while displaying continued core business momentum, as second quarter revenue, net income and Adjusted EBITDA exceeded Company and consensus street expectations. The growing need for reliable electricity from AI data centers, utilities, industrial customers and expanding economies is accelerating investment in power generation capacity, driving strong demand for our core parts and services, environmental technologies as well as coal and natural gas-fired generation solutions,” commented Kenneth Young, B&W’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "We continue active discussions on other AI data center opportunities and have placed additional orders with Siemens Energy to secure and deliver an additional 1 gigawatt of steam turbines in



the next 12 to 15 months to secure speed to markets. This increase in global energy demand positions us for sustained success across our higher-margin Global Parts and Services business and provides B&W with a strong outlook for the second half of 2026 and beyond. Continued execution of our strategic objectives is delivering results, positioning B&W to capitalize on strong global demand for baseload generation and behind-the-meter data center projects."

"Additionally, our first data center project with Base Electron is progressing ahead of expectations and on budget, and manufacturing of the boilers and steam turbines and other long-lead-time components are progressing quickly. The permitting process is underway as we work to provide our proven natural gas-fired boilers and related technologies, alongside Siemens Energy steam turbine systems. This progression with Base Electron further demonstrates our ability to rapidly deploy power solutions, which is a key differentiator that enhances our competitive position in pursuing other data center opportunities."

"During the second quarter of 2026, our strong financial results included meaningful growth in net income as well as robust development of our bookings and backlog. As our business expands, we continue hiring in our engineering, business and project development organizations as well as increasing availability of qualified skilled welders and electricians. We are continuing to experience positive momentum at B&W, as we continue to convert our global pipeline of identified project opportunities. In July, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $50 million, which reflects confidence in our balance sheet and our strategic approach to building shareholder value. In addition, we have raised the upper end of our 2026 Adjusted EBITDA target range to $80.0 million to $105.0 million, reflecting the continued momentum across our business and confidence in additional opportunities ahead. We remain intently focused on our strategic vision and remain optimistic that we will continue to execute on our existing pipeline while maintaining viability for future expansion as we move forward."

Q2 2026 Financial Summary

Revenues in the second quarter of 2026 were $319.7 million versus revenues of $138.9 million in the second quarter of 2025, primarily driven by an increase in large project volume, including $100.7 million from Base Electron. Operating income in the second quarter of 2026 was $11.8 million, compared to operating income of $7.0 million in the second quarter of 2025. Net income in the second quarter of 2026 was $14.3 million, compared to a net loss of $58.5 million in the second quarter of 2025, driven by the improvement in the operating income results. We benefited from a reduction to interest expense of $6.0 million, change in fair value of customer warrants of $5.9 million and a decrease to tax expense of $5.1 million. Earnings per share in the second quarter of 2026 was $0.07 compared to a loss per share of $0.63 in the second quarter of 2025. Adjusted EBITDA was $21.8 million, an increase compared to $13.9 million in the second quarter of 2025.

Reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures of Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss) to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided in the exhibits to this release. See “Bookings and Backlog” below for important information regarding our calculation and presentation of those metrics.

Liquidity and Balance Sheet

At June 30, 2026, the Company had secured debt and bonds of $239.8 million, and a cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash balance of $382.8 million. During the quarter B&W announced the repurchase of the remaining $61.8 million of outstanding December 2026 bonds in August 2026.

Earnings Call Information

B&W plans to host a conference call and webcast on Monday, August 10, 2026 at 5 p.m. ET to discuss the Company's second quarter 2026 results. The listen-only audio of the conference call will be broadcast live via the Internet on B&W’s Investor Relations site. The dial-in number for participants in the U.S. is (833) 461-5787; the dial-in number for participants in Canada is (365) 657-4084; the dial-in number for participants in all other locations is (585) 542-9983. The conference ID for all participants is 808869498. A replay of this conference call will remain accessible in the investor relations section of the Company’s website for a limited time.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures internally, also referred to in this release as “adjusted” financial measures, to evaluate its performance and in making financial and operational decisions. When viewed in conjunction with GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliation, the Company believes that its presentation of these measures provides investors with greater transparency and a greater understanding of factors affecting its financial condition and results of operations than GAAP measures alone. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the Company’s related financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA on a consolidated basis is a non-GAAP metric and is calculated as earnings before interest expense, tax, depreciation and amortization adjusted for items such as gains or losses arising from the sale of non-income producing assets, net pension benefits, stock-based compensation, restructuring activities, impairments, gains and losses on debt extinguishment, legal and settlement costs, and costs related to financial consulting. In addition, the Company presents consolidated Adjusted EBITDA because it believes it is useful to investors to help facilitate comparisons of the ongoing, operating performance before overhead and other expenses not attributable to the operating performance of the Company.

The Company also presents the non-GAAP financial measure of adjusted net income, which excludes $(5.2) million of non-cash warrants and other stock-related costs, as management believes it is a useful measure for investors to accurately reflect the impact of recent stock price growth on costs related to customer warrants and stock-based compensation.

This release also presents certain targets for the Company's Adjusted EBITDA in the future; these targets are not intended as guidance regarding how the Company believes the business will perform. The Company is unable to reconcile these targets to their GAAP counterparts without unreasonable effort and expense. Prior period results have been revised to conform with the revised definition and present separate reconciling items in our reconciliation, including business transition costs.

Bookings and Backlog

Bookings and backlog are our measures of remaining performance obligations under our sales contracts. It is possible that our methodology for determining bookings and backlog may not be comparable to methods used by other companies.

We generally include expected revenue from contracts in our backlog when we receive written confirmation from our customers authorizing the performance of work and committing the customers to payment for work performed. Backlog may not be indicative of future operating results, and contracts in our backlog may be canceled, modified or otherwise altered by customers. Backlog can vary significantly from period to period, particularly when large new-build projects or operations and maintenance contracts

bwfootera23a.jpg


are booked because they may be fulfilled over multiple years. Because we operate globally, our backlog is also affected by changes in foreign currencies each period. We do not include orders of our unconsolidated joint ventures in backlog.

Bookings represent changes to the backlog. Bookings include additions from booking new business, subtractions from customer cancellations or modifications, changes in estimates of liquidated damages that affect selling price and revaluation of backlog denominated in foreign currency. We believe comparing bookings on a quarterly basis or for periods less than one year is less meaningful than for longer periods and that shorter-term changes in bookings may not necessarily indicate a material trend.

Pipeline

Pipeline represents our uncontracted, potential opportunities, which have been identified and are in active discussions, that could reach a decision to proceed over the next 36 months. Pipeline is an internal metric monitored by management to understand the anticipated growth of our Company and our estimated future revenue, which may increase or decrease from time to time.

We cannot guarantee that our pipeline will result in actual revenue in the originally anticipated period or at all. Pipeline may not generate margins equal to our historical operating results. Our customers may experience project delays or cancel orders as a result of external market factors and economic or other factors beyond our control. If our pipeline fails to result in revenue as anticipated or in a timely manner, we could experience a reduction in revenue, profitability, and liquidity.

Impacts of Market Conditions

Management continues to adapt to macroeconomic conditions, including the impacts from inflation, changing interest rates and foreign exchange rate volatility, current and potential tariff actions, geopolitical conflicts (including the ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East), and global shipping and supply chain disruptions that continued to have an impact across 2026. In certain instances, these situations have resulted in cost increases and delays or disruptions that have had, and could continue to have, an adverse impact on our ability to meet customers’ demands. Additionally, an increase in power demand has caused a shortfall in skilled labor, such as welders and electricians. These labor constraints increase construction costs and affected productivity. To the extent these conditions persist, they may adversely impact future project execution and operating results.

We continue to actively monitor the impact of these market conditions on current and future periods and actively manage costs and our liquidity position to provide additional flexibility while still supporting our customers and their specific needs. The duration and scope of these conditions cannot be predicted, and therefore, any anticipated negative financial impact on our operating results cannot be reasonably estimate.

(2) Stock appreciation rights issued in 2018 for target stock price of $22.50 and $25.00 to certain employees and former employees whose value was significantly increased by the Company’s increased share value. The change in fair value of the stock appreciation rights was $(0.5) million and $5.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, increased by the tax effect of $0.2 million and $0.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively.
(3) These customer warrants were issued to Base Electron and Applied Digital in November 2025 and February 2026. The amount includes the variance in warrant value at quarter-end compared to the original valuation at grant of the awards which is reported separately as expense in the calculation of income (loss). This also includes amortization of the cost of the warrants reported as a reduction in revenue for the period. The tax effect of these adjustments is a decrease of $2.1 million and an increase of $2.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively.

All rights reserved.2 IMPORTANT INFORMATION Forward-Looking Statements​ Babcock & Wilcox Enterprises, Inc. (“B&W Enterprises,” “B&W,” “we,” “us” or “our”) cautions that this presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical or current fact included in this release are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements regarding expected demand, our pipeline, technology, and opportunities. You should not place undue reliance on these statements. Forward-looking statements include words such as “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “likely,” “seek,” “believe,” “project,” “forecast,” “target,” “goal,” “potential,” “estimate,” “may,” “might,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “can,” “have,” “due,” “anticipate,” “assume,” “contemplate,” “continue” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operational performance or other events. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and involve a number of risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to: the potential for future conditions that could raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern, which has occurred in the past; our obligation to refinance or repay our 6.50% Notes due 2026 prior to their maturity; risks associated with contractual pricing in our industry; disputes with customers with long-term contracts; the performance of third parties' and subcontractors' on whom we rely; disruptions at our or third-party manufacturing facilities; our ability to execute our growth strategy; our evaluation of strategic alternatives; our ability to deliver our backlog on time or at all; professional liability, product liability, warranty or other claims; inadequate insurance coverage; our ability to compete successfully against current and future competitors; our development of new products; cyclical and economic impacts on demand for our products; compliance with government regulations; legislative and regulatory developments impacting our business; supply chain issues; the financial and other covenants in our debt agreements; our ability to maintain adequate bonding and letter of credit capacity; impairment to our goodwill or other indefinite-lived intangible assets; our exposure to credit risk; disruptions in, or failures of, our information technology systems, including those related to cybersecurity; failure to comply with data and privacy laws, regulations and standards, or if we fail to properly maintain the integrity of our data, protect our proprietary rights to our systems or defend against cybersecurity attacks, we may be subject to government or private actions due to breaches; failure to protect our intellectual property rights, or inability to obtain or renew licenses to use intellectual property of third parties; uncertainty over tariffs and their impacts; sanctions and export controls; international political, economic and other uncertainties; fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies could harm our profitability; volatility of the market price and trading volume of our common stock; dilution of our common shareholders' ownership or voting power; the significant influence of B. Riley over us; anti-takeover provisions in our corporate documents; changes in tax rates or tax law; our ability to use NOL and certain tax credits; failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting; new accounting pronouncements or changes in existing accounting standards and practices; our ability to attract and maintain key personnel; our relationship with labor unions; pension and medical expenses associated with our retirement benefit; natural disasters or other events beyond our control; and the risks and uncertainties described under the heading "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of our most recent Annual Report, as such risk factors may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports we file with the SEC. The forward-looking statements included herein are made only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law. Bookings and Backlog Bookings and backlog are our measures of remaining performance obligations under our sales contracts. It is possible that our methodology for determining bookings and backlog may not be comparable to methods used by other companies. We generally include expected revenue from contracts in our backlog when we receive written confirmation from our customers authorizing the performance of work and committing the customers to payment for work performed. Backlog may not be indicative of future operating results, and contracts in our backlog may be canceled, modified or otherwise altered by customers. Backlog can vary significantly from period to period, particularly when large new-build projects or operations and maintenance contracts are booked because they may be fulfilled over multiple years. Because we operate globally, our backlog is also affected by changes in foreign currencies each period. We do not include orders of our unconsolidated joint ventures in backlog. Bookings represent changes to the backlog. Bookings include additions from booking new business, subtractions from customer cancellations or modifications, changes in estimates of liquidated damages that affect selling price and revaluation of backlog denominated in foreign currency. We believe comparing bookings on a quarterly basis or for periods less than one year is less meaningful than for longer periods and that shorter-term changes in bookings may not necessarily indicate a material trend. Pipeline Pipeline represents our uncontracted, potential opportunities, which have been identified and are in active discussions, that could reach a decision to proceed over the next 36 months. Pipeline is an internal metric monitored by management to understand the anticipated growth of our Company and our estimated future revenue, which may increase or decrease from time to time. We cannot guarantee that our pipeline will result in actual revenue in the originally anticipated period or at all. Pipeline may not generate margins equal to our historical operating results. Our customers may experience project delays or cancel orders as a result of external market factors and economic or other factors beyond our control. If our pipeline fails to result in revenue as anticipated or in a timely manner, we could experience a reduction in revenue, profitability, and liquidity.
