For immediate release
November 8, 2023
Star Equity Holdings, Inc. Announces 2023 Third Quarter Financial Results
Ended the third quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $20.7 million; well positioned to expand existing businesses organically or grow through acquisitions of bolt-ons or new verticals

Old Greenwich, CT. - Star Equity Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: STRR; STRRP) (“Star Equity” or the “Company”), a diversified holding company, reported today its financial results for the third quarter (Q3) ended September 30, 2023. All 2023 and 2022 amounts in this release are unaudited.
Following the sale of our Digirad Health business on May 4, 2023, all financial results for the 2023 and 2022 reporting periods, unless stated otherwise, relate to continuing operations, which currently include two divisions: Construction and Investments.
Q3 2023 Financial Highlights vs. Q3 2022 (unaudited)
Revenues decreased by 6.1% to $10.4 million from $11.1 million.
Gross profit decreased by 28.3% to $2.2 million from $3.1 million.
Net loss from continuing operations was $2.4 million (or $0.15 per basic and diluted share) compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $1.0 million (or $0.06 per basic and diluted share).
Non-GAAP adjusted net income was $0.2 million (or $0.01 per diluted share) compared to a net income of $0.3 million (or $0.02 per diluted share).
Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $14 thousand versus income of $0.6 million.
Year-to-Date 2023 Financial Highlights vs. Year-to-Date 2022 (unaudited)
Revenues decreased by 19.9% to $31.7 million from $39.5 million.
Gross profit increased by 29.9% to $9.1 million from $7.0 million.
Net loss from continuing operations was $3.7 million (or $0.24 per basic and diluted share) compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $6.7 million (or $0.46 per basic and diluted share).
Non-GAAP adjusted net loss from continuing operations was $0.2 million (or $0.01 per diluted share) compared to a net loss of $2.1 million (or $0.14 per diluted share).
Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations improved to a net loss of $50 thousand versus a loss of $1.0 million.
As of September 30, 2023, cash and cash equivalents increased to $20.7 million compared to cash and cash equivalents of $14.1 million at September 30, 2022
Debt decreased to $0.5 million at September 30, 2023 from $3.5 million at September 30, 2022.

Rick Coleman, Chief Executive Officer, noted, “In the third quarter of 2023, Construction revenue and gross profit declined versus the third quarter of 2022. Year-to-date, however, gross profit increased 28% versus the prior year despite lower revenues. Continued credit tightening in the quarter caused some delays in commercial projects, but single-family residential activity and our overall backlog and sales pipeline remained robust due to our focus on select niche markets where we’ve built significant expertise and a strong reputation.
Mr. Coleman continued, “In addition, we were excited to announce our acquisition of Big Lake Lumber on October 31st. This accretive bolt-on acquisition for our Glenbrook business represents an important step in the execution of our growth strategy, which includes organic Construction division expansion, bolt-on acquisitions, acquisitions in new industries, and thoughtfully exploring new opportunities at our Investments division.”

Revenues
The Company’s Q3 2023 revenues decreased 6.1% to $10.4 million from $11.1 million in Q2 2022.

Q3 2023 Construction revenue decreased by 6.1% from the prior year and year-to-date 2023 revenue decreased 19.9% from year-to-date 2022. While our sales pipeline and construction backlog remain strong, credit tightening has slowed overall construction activity and delayed some commercial project starts.

Q3 2023 Construction gross profit decreased 28.2% due primarily to lower revenues, while year-to-date 2023 gross profit increased 28.3% from the prior year periods despite lower revenues. The year-to-date increase is due to higher pricing levels and lower input costs.
Operating Expenses
On a consolidated basis, Q3 2023 sales, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased by $0.3 million, or 10.9%, versus the prior year period. The major drivers of the increase in SG&A were increases in legal and outside services expense related to our Investments activities and the sale of our Healthcare business. SG&A as a percentage of revenue increased in Q3 2023 to 32.9% versus 27.9% in Q3 2022.
Net Income
Q3 2023 net loss from continuing operations was $2.4 million, or $0.15 per basic and diluted share, compared to net loss of $1.0 million, or $0.06 per basic and diluted share in the same period in the prior year. Q3 2023 non-GAAP adjusted net income from continuing operations was $0.2 million, or $0.01 per basic and diluted share, compared to non-GAAP adjusted net income from continuing operations of $0.3 million, or $0.02 per basic and diluted share, in the prior year period.
Year-to-date 2023 net loss from continuing operations was $3.7 million, or $0.24 per basic and diluted share, compared to net loss of $6.7 million, or $0.46 per basic and diluted share, in the same period in the prior year. Year to date 2023 non-GAAP adjusted net loss from continuing operations was $0.2 million, or $0.01 per basic and diluted share, compared to adjusted net loss from continuing operations of $2.1 million, or $0.14 per basic and diluted share, in the prior year period.
Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA
Q3 2023 non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $14 thousand versus income of $0.6 million in the same quarter of the prior year, primarily due to decreased revenues and increased corporate expenses. Year-to-date 2023 non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $50 thousand, compared to a loss of $1.0 million in year-to-date 2022, primarily due to improved margins at our Construction division.
2


Operating Cash Flow
Q3 2023 cash flow from operations was an inflow of $0.8 million, compared to an outflow of $3.2 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase in cash flow was due in part to decreased use of cash for working capital in 2023. Year-to-date 2023 cash flow from operations was an inflow of $2.7 million, compared to an outflow of $0.2 million for year-to-date 2022. This was also due in part to decreased use of cash for working capital in 2023.
Preferred Stock Dividends
In Q3 2023, the Company’s board of directors declared a cash dividend to holders of our Series A Preferred Stock of $0.25 per share, for an aggregate amount of approximately $0.5 million. The record date for this dividend was September 1, 2023, and the payment date was September 12, 2023.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures by Star Equity Holdings, Inc.
This release presents the non-GAAP financial measures “adjusted net income (loss),” “adjusted net income (loss) per basic and diluted share,” and “adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations.” The most directly comparable measures for these non-GAAP financial measures are “net income (loss),” “net income (loss) per basic and diluted share,” and “cash flows from operating activities.” The Company has included below unaudited adjusted financial information, which presents the Company’s results of operations after excluding acquired intangible asset amortization, unrealized gain (loss) on equity securities and lumber derivatives, litigation costs, transaction costs, financing costs, and income tax adjustments. Further excluded in the measure of adjusted EBITDA are stock-based compensation, interest, depreciation, and amortization.
A discussion of the reasons why management believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations is included as Exhibit 99.2 to the Company’s report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 8, 2023.

Exhibit 99.2
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), information containing non-GAAP financial measures for Star Equity Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) was disclosed in the Company's press release (the “Press Release”) dated November 8, 2023 announcing results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 that accompanied a conference call held by the Company on November 8, 2023. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements should be carefully evaluated. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company has provided reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Management encourages readers to rely upon the GAAP numbers, but includes the non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental metrics to assist readers. Definitions of the non-GAAP financial measures are included in the Press Release.
In the Press Release, the Company presented the non-GAAP financial measures “adjusted net income (loss),” “adjusted net income (loss) per basic and diluted share,” “adjusted EBITDA” Company management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the Company's performance. Company management finds it useful to use financial measures that do not include acquired intangible asset amortization, unrealized gain (loss) on lumber derivatives and available-for-sale securities, gain (loss) on sale of assets, lease write offs, litigation costs, financing costs, transaction costs, financing fees, and income tax adjustments. While we may have these types of items and charges in the future, Company management believes that they are not reflective of the day-to-day offering of its products and services and relate more to strategic, multi-year corporate actions, without predictable trends, and that may obscure the trends and financial performance of the Company's core business. In the case of “adjusted EBITDA,” Company management believes the exclusion of interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and stock-based compensation is a very common measure utilized in the investment community and it helps Company management benchmark its operations and results with the industry.
The limitation associated with using these non-GAAP financial measures is that these measures exclude items that impact the Company's current period operating results. This limitation is best addressed by using these non-GAAP financial measures in combination with “net income (loss),” “net income (loss) per basic and diluted share,” and "operating cash flow" (the most comparable GAAP measures) because these non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect items that impact current period operating results and may be higher or lower than the most comparable GAAP measure.
