1 Refer to the tax benefit of $(6.6) million that the Company recorded in Q4 2017. As a result, the Company released a net $8.1 million valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets related
to the U.S. entities, and a charge of $1.4 million for provision for uncertain tax positions. As a result, for 2017, the Company reflected a tax benefit of $(6.2) million.
2 During the quarter ended June 30, 2018, the Company identified
an immaterial error of $1.2 million, or $0.06 per share, in the December 31, 2017 financial statements related to the release of the valuation allowance against deferred tax assets attributable to windfall tax benefits. The financial statements
for the year ended December 31, 2017 reflect the correct comparative data.
3 Refer to the non-GAAP reconciliation tables at the end of this press release
for a definition of "EBITDA", “adjusted EBTIDA” and “adjusted net income”.
Kyle J. Loudermilk, GSE’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Our adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of 2018 grew by 46.7% year-over-year to $2.8
million, one of the best quarterly outcomes in our history, while GSE’s full year 2018 adjusted EBITDA rose 31.6% year-over-year to $7.4 million, also one of the best annual outcomes in more than two decades. Full year 2018 adjusted net income
increased 55.0% to $4.7 million, or $0.24 per diluted share. These strong financial results reflect our ongoing commitment to providing clients with best-in-class engineering and expert staffing solutions, as well as meaningful contributions from
the highly-complementary acquisitions of Absolute Consulting in September 2017 and True North Consulting in May 2018. During the year, we won a range of impressive new business orders globally and maintained a solid backlog despite the wind down
of our very large full scope simulator project in the US. We are very pleased with this sales performance because it supports the validity of our strategy to consolidate the fragmented ecosystem of vendors serving the nuclear power industry. With
the strategic acquisition of DP Engineering in February 2019, we have added an outstanding team of professionals with a broad range of engineering capabilities for nuclear power, including a core competency in engineering design modifications
implemented during regularly scheduled nuclear plant outages. We aim to build on our success to date and further enhance GSE’s platform during the remainder of 2019, focusing on the additional value we can create for our clients and shareholders.”
2018 FULL YEAR RECAP
Revenue expanded to $92.2 million for the year ended 2018, compared to $70.9 million in 2017. The
year-over-year increase was driven by increases in both of GSE's business segments. The increase of $3.1 million in the Company's Performance Improvement Solutions ("Performance") segment was driven by the acquisition of True North, which
contributed $8.0 million. The increase of $18.3 million from the Company's Nuclear Industry Training and Consulting ("NITC") segment was driven by the acquisition of Absolute Consulting which contributed $18.3 million.
Gross profit increased 24.7% to $23.1 million, or 25.1% of revenue for the year ended 2018, from $18.5 million, or 26.2% of revenue in 2017.
Operating income totaled $1.4 million in 2018, compared to $0.2 million in 2017.
Net loss was $(0.4) million, or $(0.02) per diluted share in 2018, compared to net income of $6.6 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, in 2017.
Adjusted net income increased to $4.7 million, or $0.24 per diluted share in 2018, compared to $3.0 million, or $0.15 per diluted share in 2017.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) totaled $3.7 million in 2018, compared to $1.5 million in 2017.
Adjusted EBITDA rose 31.6% to $7.4 million in 2018 from $5.7 million in 2017.
Performance new orders totaled $40.9 million in 2018 compared to $16.9 million in 2017, with True North having contributed $9.9 million of new orders in 2018. NITC
new orders totaled $45.4 million in 2018 compared to $38.1 million in 2017.
Q4 2018 RESULTS
Q4 2018 revenue increased $0.9 million from $22.0 million in Q4 2017 to $22.9 million in Q4 2018. The year over year increase was driven by an increase of $2.5
million in the Company's Performance segment, partially offset by a decrease of $(1.7) million from the Company's NITC segment.
The increase in the Performance segment's revenue was driven by the acquisition of True North, which contributed $4.3 million of additional revenue in Q4 2018. The
increase was partially offset by a decrease of $1.3 million in Performance's revenue in Q4 2018 not including True North, and lower revenue from the Company's foreign subsidiaries of $0.3 million primarily due to the restructuring of the business
in the UK and Sweden offices.
The year-over-year decrease in the NITC segment's revenue was primarily caused by lower revenue of $1.7 million from Absolute due to contracts expiring and not
restarting.

Performance gross profit for Q4 2018 was $5.1 million, or 41.6% gross profit margin, compared to $3.4 million, or 34.4% gross
profit margin, in Q4 2017. The year-over-year increase in gross profit for Performance during Q4 2018 was primarily driven by the acquisition of True North, which contributed $1.3 million.
NITC gross profit for Q4 2018 was $1.3 million, or 12.7% gross profit margin, compared to $1.8 million, or 14.8% gross profit margin, in Q4 2017. Absolute Consulting
contributed $0.7 million to the gross profit for NITC in Q4 2018, with a gross profit margin of 11.0%, which resulted in a lower gross profit for the segment in Q4 2018.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses (SG&A) in Q4 2018 totaled $3.8 million, or 16.6% of revenue, compared to $3.7 million, or 16.9% of revenue, in Q4
2017. The minor fluctuations for the periods presented were due to normal variances in operating costs.
Restructuring Charges
On December 27, 2017, the Board of Directors of GSE Systems, Inc. approved an international restructuring plan to streamline and optimize the Company's global
operations. Beginning in December 2017 and continuing during 2018, GSE consolidated its engineering services and R&D activities to Maryland. As a result, the Company is in the process of closing out the legal entities in Sweden, India and the
UK, as the company has already closed its offices in Nyköping, Sweden; Chennai, India; and Stockton-on-Tees, UK. As of December 31, 2018, the Company has recorded a restructuring charge of $2.0 million. The Company expects to record the remaining
$0.2 million restructuring charges in 2019. The projected cash cost savings from this activity are expected to begin being realized in Q2 2019.
Operating income was approximately $1.8 million in Q4 2018, compared to $0.2 million in Q4 2017. The increase was due to both organic growth and acquisitions.
Provision for income taxes
The Company recorded a tax provision of $1.0 million in Q4 2018. As of each reporting date, the Company’s management assesses the realizability
of deferred tax assets. Based on the assessment the Company’s management performed as of December 31, 2018, the Company concluded that critical pieces of positive evidence supporting the realization of deferred tax assets exist including the
strength of three year cumulative positive earnings, reversal of existing deferred temporary differences and future taxable income for the U.S. entities. As a result, the Company has determined that a valuation allowance in the U.S. is not
appropriate at this time.
Net income for Q4 2018 totaled $0.7 million, or $0.03 and $0.03 per basic and diluted share, respectively, compared to $6.6 million, or $0.34
and $0.33 per basic and diluted share, in Q4 2017.
Adjusted net income totaled $1.1 million, or $0.05 per diluted share in Q4 2018, compared to $0.2 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, in Q4 2017.
EBITDA for Q4 2018 was approximately $2.6 million compared to $0.4 million in Q4 2017.
Adjusted EBITDA totaled $2.8 million in Q4 2018, compared to $1.9 million in Q4 2017.
BACKLOG AND CASH POSITION
Backlog at December 31, 2018, was $68.7 million, including $47.5 million of Performance backlog,
$6.6 million of which was attributable to True North, and $21.2 million of NITC backlog. At December 31, 2017, the Company's backlog was $71.4 million; $46.3 million for Performance and $25.1 million for NITC. The decrease in NITC backlog is primarily due to expiring contracts which have not been renewed as of now. Excluding True North, Performance's backlog decreased $5.4 million during 2018 primarily
due to 2017 backlog that was converted to revenue during 2018 including significant progress on delivering the large full scope simulator order in the U.S. in 2018.
GSE’s cash position at December 31, 2018, was $12.1 million, as compared to $20.1 million, including $1.0 million
of restricted cash, at December 31, 2017.
DP ENGINEERING
As previously announced, on February 15, 2019, GSE Performance Solutions, Inc., our wholly owned subsidiary, acquired DP Engineering for $13.5 million payable at
closing (subject to customary pre- and post-closing working capital adjustments) plus an additional earn-out amount not to exceed $5 million, potentially payable in 2020 and 2021. DP Engineering is a provider of value-added technical engineering
solutions and consulting services to nuclear power plants with an emphasis on preparation and implementation of design modifications during plant outages.
Following a recent event at a customer location, in accordance with its standard operating procedures and an Engineer of Choice Agreement, the customer of DP
Engineering issued a Notice of Suspension to DP Engineering while a root cause analysis of the event proceeds. Approximately 25% of the impacted projects have already been restarted at the request of the customer. DP Engineering and GSE are working
with the customer and outside vendors to assist in the causal analysis related to the event and anticipate further clarity once the analysis is complete.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation (in thousands)
References to “EBITDA” mean net (loss) income, before taking into account interest expense (income), provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization. References to Adjusted EBITDA exclude the impact of gain
from the change in fair value of contingent consideration, restructuring charges, stock-based compensation expense, impact of the change in fair value of derivative instruments, acquisition-related expense, and bad debt expense due to customer
bankruptcy. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Management believes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, in addition to operating profit, net income and other
GAAP measures, are useful to investors to evaluate the Company’s results because it excludes certain items that are not directly related to the Company’s core operating performance that may, or could, have a disproportionate positive or negative
impact on our results for any particular period. Investors should recognize that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA might not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies. These measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a
substitute for or superior to, any measure of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of non-GAAP EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measure in accordance with SEC Regulation G follows:

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS Reconciliation (in thousands, except per share amounts)
References to Adjusted net income exclude the impact of gain from the change in fair value of
contingent consideration, restructuring charges, stock-based compensation expense, impact of the change in fair value of derivative instruments, acquisition-related expense, amortization of intangible assets related to acquisitions, bad debt
expense due to customer bankruptcy, one-time tax reform impact and release of valuation allowance. Adjusted Net Income and adjusted earnings per share (adjusted
EPS) are not measures of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Management believes adjusted net income and adjusted EPS, in addition to other GAAP measures, are useful to investors to evaluate the Company’s
results because they exclude certain items that are not directly related to the Company’s core operating performance that may, or could, have a disproportionate positive or negative impact on our results for any particular period. These measures
should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, any measure of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of non-GAAP adjusted net income and adjusted EPS to GAAP net income, the most directly
comparable GAAP financial measure, is as follows:
