BUSINESS Overview ENGlobal Corporation (which may be referred to as “ENGlobal,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”), incorporated in the State of Nevada in June 1994, is a leading provider of engineering and professional services principally to the energy industry. All of the information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K relates to the annual periods ended December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012. During 2011, 2012 and early 2013, we experienced a downturn in our operations resulting in significant losses and subsequent defaults under our credit facilities. In the fourth quarter of 2012, we implemented a strategic plan that included the divestiture of our non-core assets. In late 2012 and January 2013, we discontinued the Electrical Services division and sold our Field Solutions segment, which we accounted for as discontinued operations. In August 2013, we sold a significant portion of our Engineering and Construction business, which we accounted for as a sale of continuing operations. As a result of these events, our revenues from continuing operations for 2013 versus 2012 show a significant decrease. However, the result of implementing our strategic plan is a smaller company that is focused on our two remaining segments, (1) Engineering and (2) Automation. Our net losses before taxes from continuing operations, decreased from $8.5 million in 2012 (excluding a goodwill impairment of $14.6 million) to $1.8 million in 2013. Our net cash provided by operations was $10.7 million in 2013 versus cash used in operations of $5.0 million in 2012. We have reduced our employee count from approximately 1,700 employees as of December 29, 2012 to approximately 430 employees as of December 28, 2013 in seven offices located in the following cities: Houston, Texas; Tulsa, Oklahoma; Denver, Colorado; Mobile, Alabama; and Chicago, Illinois. We are now focused on the following segments: Table of Contents • Engineering, Procurement and Construction Management Segment - The Engineering, Procurement and Construction Management (“EPCM”) segment provides services relating to the development, management and execution of projects requiring professional engineering and related project services primarily to the energy industry throughout the United States. Services provided by the EPCM segment include feasibility studies, engineering, design, procurement and construction management. The EPCM segment includes the government services group, which provides engineering, design, installation and operation and maintenance of various government, public sector and international facilities. 3 During 2012, the substantial losses we incurred and the resulting defaults under our credit facilities (the “PNC Credit Facility” and the “Ex-Im Bank Facility”) raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. While ENGlobal experienced a difficult 2012 and continued to face a number of challenges in 2013, we were able to divest our least attractive businesses and sell a portion of our core business for proceeds sufficient to pay off our debt (and cure all defaults), and are now focused on our remaining core business segments, EPCM and Automation. In this regard, we have reduced our expenses by reducing employee headcount, closing offices and creating an enhanced operational focus on cost controls. See “Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations –Liquidity and Capital Resources.” During 2013, we improved margins and reduced selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) in our core businesses. As a part of our overall strategic plan, we began implementing a profit enhancement plan in the fourth quarter of 2012 pursuant to which we have been reducing the amount of risk we are willing to accept in the work we are currently performing. This has resulted in less construction management and the associated procurement services. This reduction in procurement services has impacted our revenue in 2013 as compared to 2012, but has had a positive impact on our gross profit margin as procurement services are typically provided at lower mark-ups. We continue to position ourselves as a reliable, high quality service provider to our customers. In late 2012, we began reducing our overhead costs primarily through staff reductions and reductions in purchased services. As a result, our selling, general and administrative expenses have decreased from $25.2 million in 2012 to $22.1 million for the same period in 2013. We expect our selling, general and administrative expenses to continue to decrease in 2014 due to the reduction in corporate personnel related to the sale of the Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations late in 2013. As we begin 2014, we continue to look for ways to reduce our overhead while maintaining a high level of service. During 2013, we repaid all our bank debt. This was accomplished by liquidating the working net capital of the divisions that we sold in late 2012 and 2013, releasing the restrictions from $6.1 in restricted cash and using the proceeds from the sale of our Gulf Coast Engineering and Construction and in-plant operations to repay the remaining advances under the PNC Credit Facility. The Company is no longer in default under any debt obligation or credit facility and has access to up to $10 million of availability under the amended PNC Credit Facility which in addition to cash of approximately $4.0 million and $4.9 million at December 28, 2013 and March 13, 2014, respectively, is sufficient to conduct its remaining operations. As of December 28, 2013 and March 13, 2014, the Company had no debt outstanding under the amended PNC Credit Facility.

Table of Contents • Automation Segment - The Automation segment provides services related to the design, fabrication and implementation of process distributed control and analyzer systems, advanced automation, information technology and electrical projects primarily to the energy industry throughout the United States as well as specific projects in the Middle East and Central Asia. 4 Business Segments – Continuing Operations Our segments are strategic business units that offer different services and products and therefore require different marketing and management strategies. In addition to internal growth, historically, our segments have grown through strategic acquisitions, which also served to augment management expertise. Engineering, Procurement and Construction Management Segment Selected financial data for this segment for the years ended December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012, respectively, is summarized as follows (dollars in thousands): During 2013, we sold our Gulf Coast locations of this segment (see “Disposal of Continuing Operations” below). Our remaining EPCM segment operates out of offices in Houston, Texas; Tulsa, Oklahoma; Chicago, Illinois; and Denver, Colorado. General The EPCM segment provides services relating to the development, management and execution of projects requiring professional engineering and related project services primarily to the energy industry throughout the United States. Our EPCM segment offers feasibility studies, engineering, design, procurement and construction management. The EPCM segment includes the government services group, which provides engineering, design, installation and operation and maintenance of various government, public sector and international facilities. The EPCM segment offers a wide range of services as a single source provider. ENGlobal's engineering staff has the capability of developing a project from the initial planning stages through detailed design and construction management. Our services include conceptual studies, project definition, cost estimating, engineering design, environmental compliance, material procurement, project management, construction management and facility inspection. The EPCM segment currently operates through ENGlobal's wholly-owned subsidiaries, ENGlobal U.S., Inc. (“ENGlobal U.S.”) and ENGlobal Government Services, Inc. ENGlobal U.S. focuses on providing its services to the energy industry, chemical and petrochemical manufacturers and utilities. The EPCM segment has existing blanket service contracts under which it provides clients either with services on a time-and-material basis or with services on a fixed-price basis. The Company strives to establish longer term “alliance” or “preferred provider” relationships with its clients that can be expected to provide a steadier stream of work. In addition, this segment provides outsourced personnel to ENGlobal clients, a service that contributes to a more stable business mix for the Company. ENGlobal Government Services, Inc. primarily provides automated fuel handling systems and maintenance services to branches of the U.S. military and public sector entities. Other clients of this division are government agencies, refineries, petrochemical and process industry customers worldwide. ENGlobal Government Services provides electrical and instrument installation, technical services, ongoing maintenance and calibration and repair services. As a service-based business, the EPCM segment is more labor than capital intensive. This segment’s results primarily depend on our ability to generate revenue and collect cash in excess of any cost for employees and benefits, material, equipment and subcontracts, plus our selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses. The EPCM segment derives revenue primarily from time-and-material fees charged for professional and technical services, but its net income is derived primarily from services it provides to the oil and gas industry, utilities and alternative energy developers. The segment also enters into contracts providing for the execution of projects on a fixed-price basis, whereby some, or all, of the project activities related to engineering, material procurement and construction (EPC) are performed for a fixed-price amount. Table of Contents Percentage of Revenues Segments 2013 2012 Engineering, Procurement and Construction Management (EPCM) 73.2 % 74.1 % Automation 26.8 % 25.9 % Total 100.0 % 100.0 % 2013 2012 Revenue $ 123,740 $ 168,930 Operating profit (loss) $ 5,300 $ (10,922 ) Total assets $ 12,311 $ 35,251 5 Competition Our EPCM segment competes with a large number of public and private firms of various sizes, ranging from the industry's largest firms, which operate on a worldwide basis, to much smaller regional and local firms. Many of our competitors are larger than we are and have significantly greater financial and other resources available to them than we do. However, the largest firms in our industry are sometimes our clients, as they perform as program managers for very large scale projects and then subcontract a portion of their work to us. We also have many competitors who are smaller than us and who, as a result, may be able to offer services at more competitive prices. Competition is centered on performance and the ability to provide the engineering, planning and project delivery skills required for completing projects in a timely, cost-efficient manner. The expertise of our management and technical personnel and the timeliness and quality of our support services are key competitive factors. Automation Segment Selected financial data for this segment for the years ended December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012, respectively, is summarized as follows (dollars in thousands): General The Automation segment provides services related to the design, fabrication and implementation of process distributed control and analyzer systems, advanced automation, information technology and electrical projects primarily to the energy industry throughout the United States as well as specific projects in the Middle East and Central Asia. This segment also designs, assembles, integrates and services control and instrumentation systems for specific applications in the energy and processing related industries. These services are offered to clients in the petroleum refining, petrochemical, pipeline, production, process and pulp and paper industries throughout the United States and In Kazakhstan and Russia. Currently, we have a significant project in Kazakhstan and Russia, the Caspian Pipeline Consortium Project (“CPC Project”). Under the Russian Federation contract pursuant to the CPC Project, ENGlobal’s scope includes engineering, procuring equipment, buildings, programming, and fabrication of 230 control system panels for eight new pump stations and the upgrade of three existing pump stations, storage facilities, and marine terminal. The contract for the Republic of Kazakhstan pursuant to the CPC Project consists of engineering, procuring equipment, buildings, and fabrication of 78 control system panels for two new and two existing pump stations, start-up and commissioning services for the local control systems and valves. The CPC Project generated $20.4 million of revenues in 2013. Total billings of $50.9 million are expected from this project in 2014 and 2015, with the majority of billings expected to be received in 2015. The Automation segment operates through ENGlobal's wholly-owned subsidiary, ENGlobal U.S. and derives revenue from both time-and-material fees and fees charged for professional and technical services on a fixed-price basis. As a service provider, our Automation segment is more labor than capital intensive. The segment's results primarily depend on our ability to accurately estimate costs on fixed-price contracts, generate revenue and collect amounts due under time-and-material contracts in excess of the cost of employees and benefits, material, equipment, subcontracts, and applicable SG&A expenses. Our Automation segment primarily operates out of our offices in Houston, Texas, and Mobile, Alabama. Competition Our Automation segment competes with a large number of public and private firms of various sizes, ranging from the industry's largest firms, which operate on a worldwide basis, to much smaller regional and local firms. Many of our competitors are larger than we are and have significantly greater financial and other resources available to them than we do. We also have many competitors who are smaller than us and who, as a result, may be able to offer services at more competitive prices. Competition is centered on performance and the ability to provide the engineering, assembly and integration required to complete projects in a timely and cost-efficient manner. The technical expertise of our management team and technical personnel and the timeliness and quality of our support services are key competitive factors. Table of Contents 2013 2012 Revenue $ 45,223 $ 58,986 Operating profit $ 5,854 $ 1,989 Total assets $ 23,029 $ 25,445 6 Disposal of Continuing Operations On August 30, 2013, we completed the sale of substantially all of our Gulf Coast engineering and in-plant operations to a subsidiary of Furmanite Corporation. The total value of the transaction to ENGlobal was $17 million, consisting primarily of $15 million of cash and a $3.0 million promissory note issued at 4% interest with a Furmanite Corporation guarantee. The transaction resulted in a $721,000 gain on the sale of these operations. We used most of the net proceeds from this transaction to repay advances under the PNC Credit Facility. As a result of this transaction, approximately 900 employees transferred from ENGlobal to Furmanite. In conjunction with this sale, the Company reduced its corporate selling, general and administrative expenses to support ongoing continuing operations. Disposal of Discontinued Operations During 2012 and early 2013, we discontinued our Electrical Services group and sold our Field Solutions segment. These operations had been declining in net revenue contribution over the past few years. Selected financial data for these discontinued operations for the years ended December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012, respectively, is summarized as follows (dollars in thousands): General The decision to discontinue our Electrical Services group was made in 2011. All remaining assets were disposed of and the last lump sum project was completed during the third quarter of 2012. Our Field Solutions segment provided inspection, land management, right-of-way, environmental compliance, legislative affairs support and governmental regulatory compliance services primarily to the midstream sector, including pipeline, utility and telecommunications companies and other owner/operators of infrastructure facilities throughout the United States. Its operations consisted of the Land and Right-of-Way and Inspection divisions. The Land and Right-of-Way division was sold on November 2, 2012 and the Inspection division was sold on January 3, 2013. Acquisitions and Divestitures In the past, we have expanded our business through both internal initiatives and through strategic acquisitions. These acquisitions allowed us to (i) expand our client base and broaden the range of services that we provide to our clients, (ii) add new technical capabilities that can be marketed to our existing client base, (iii) grow our business geographically, and (iv) capture more of each project's value. In 2012 and early 2013, because of the significant decline in our operations, we discontinued or sold our less profitable businesses. As of the date of this Report, we believe we have stabilized operations and do not expect any further divestitures in 2014. Seasonality Our revenues are generated by services, and therefore holidays and employee vacations during our first and fourth quarter negatively impact revenues for those quarters, which is only partially offset by the year-end efforts on the part of many clients to spend any remaining funds budgeted for services and capital expenditures during the year. Our clients' annual budget process is normally completed in the first quarter, which can slow the award of new work at the beginning of the year. In addition, weather conditions have been more difficult in the geographic markets where we operate. Principally due to these factors, our first and fourth quarters are typically less robust than our second and third quarters. Business Strategy Our primary objective continues to be to develop our own proprietary products in addition to strengthening our position as a leading full service provider of project delivery services to the energy industry by enhancing our overall range of capabilities in the areas of engineering and construction management and automation services. Because of the significant decline in our operations during 2012 and early 2013, we have been focused on downsizing our operations, maintaining our core business strengths and repairing our financing relationships with our lenders. Specifically, we have executed and are focused on the following: Table of Contents 2013 2012 Revenue $ — $ 60,822 Operating loss $ — $ (3,651 ) Total assets $ — $ 57 • Downsizing – The divestiture of our Field Solutions segment and Gulf Coast division of our EPCM segment has resulted in the reduction of approximately 1,270 personnel. In addition, we have closed an office and undertaken a review of our continuing operations. We have streamlined our back office support, reduced the cost of outside consultants and limited general and administrative expenditures. 7 Sales and Marketing ENGlobal derives revenues primarily from three sources: (1) business development, (2) preferred provider/alliance agreements with strategic clients, and (3) referrals from existing customers and industry members. Our Senior Vice President of Business Development supervises our in-house business development assigned to clients and territories within the United States. Client relationships are nurtured by our geographic advantage of having office locations near our larger customers. By having clients in close proximity, we are able to provide single, dedicated points of contact. Our growth depends in large measure on our ability to attract and retain qualified business development managers and business development personnel with a respected reputation in the energy industry. Management believes that in-house marketing allows for more accountability and control, thus increasing profitability. Our business development focuses on building long-term relationships with customers and clients in order to provide solutions throughout the life-cycle of their facilities. Additionally, we seek to capitalize on cross-selling opportunities between our EPCM and Automation segments. Sales leads are often jointly developed and pursued by our business development personnel from both of these segments. Products and services are also promoted through trade advertising, participation in industry conferences and on-line Internet communication via our corporate home page at www.englobal.com . The ENGlobal website provides information about our operating segments and illustrates our Company's full range of services and capabilities. We use internal and external resources to maintain and update our website on an ongoing basis. Through the ENGlobal website, we seek to provide visitors and investors with a single point of contact for obtaining information about our services. We develop preferred provider and alliance agreements with clients in order to facilitate repeat business. These preferred provider agreements, also known as master services agreements or umbrella agreements, are typically two to three years in length. Although the agreement is not a guarantee for work under a certain project, ENGlobal generally offers a slightly reduced billing structure to clients willing to commit to arrangements that are expected to provide a steady stream of work. With the terms of the contract settled, add-on projects with these customers are easier to negotiate and can be accepted quickly, without the necessity of a bidding process. Management believes that these agreements can serve to stabilize project-centered operations in the EPCM segment. Much of our business is repeat business and we are introduced to new customers in many cases by referrals from existing customers and industry members. Management believes referral marketing provides the opportunity for increased profitability because referrals do not involve direct selling. Rather, they allow satisfied customers to sell our services and products on our behalf. ENGlobal strives to develop our clients' trust and then benefit by word-of-mouth referrals. Customers Our customer base consists primarily of Fortune 500 companies in the energy industry. While we do not have continuing dependence on any single client or a limited group of clients, one or a few clients may contribute a substantial portion of our revenue in any given year or over a period of several consecutive years due to the longevity of major projects, such as facility upgrades or expansions. ENGlobal may work for many different subsidiaries or divisions of our clients, which involves multiple parties to material contracts. The loss of the CPC Project would likely have a material impact on our financial results. The loss of a single large customer, including all of its subsidiaries or divisions, or the reduction in demand for our services by several customers in the same year could also have such an effect. We continue to focus substantial attention on improving customer services in order to enhance satisfaction and increase customer retention. Revenue generated through sources such as preferred provider relationships are longer-term in nature and are not typically limited to one project.\ Table of Contents • Business Strengths – We have focused our efforts on our core business segments, EPCM and Automation. We have significantly reduced our lower margin procurement services and are focused on our proprietary products which we expect to provide higher margins when sold. Going forward, we expect to continue our relationships with our repeat clients and forge new relationships within our core expertise and experience and develop additional proprietary products. • Financial Relationships – We terminated the Ex-Im Credit Facility and have access to up to $10 million of availability under the amended PNC Credit Facility to operate our business on similar terms as our competitors. See “Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity and Capital Resources.” 8 A significant long-term trend among our clients and their industry counterparts has been outsourcing engineering services. This trend has fostered the development of ongoing, longer-term client arrangements, rather than one-time limited engagements. These arrangements vary in scope, duration and degree of commitment. While there is typically no guarantee that work will result from these agreements, often the arrangements form the basis for a longer-term client relationship. Despite their variety, we believe that these partnering relationships have a stabilizing influence on our revenue. These engagements may provide for any of the following: Overall, our ten largest customers, who vary from one period to the next, accounted for 56.9% of our total revenues for 2013 and 44% of our total revenues for 2012. Most of our projects are specific in nature and we generally have multiple projects with the same clients. If we were to lose one or more of our significant clients and were unable to replace them with other customers or other projects, our business could be materially adversely affected. Our top three clients in 2013 were the Caspian Pipeline Consortium, the US Government and BASF Corporation. Even though we frequently receive work from repeat clients, our client list may vary significantly from year to year. Our potential revenue in all segments is dependent on continuing relationships with our customers. As of December 28, 2013, the Company had approximately 130 active customers of which 75 were common customers with the Gulf Coast operations that were sold. The revenue from these customers of approximately $9.2 million, represents approximately 10.3% of the Company’s revenue for the year ended December 28, 2013, excluding the Gulf Coast operations. For the year ended December 29, 2012, the Company had approximately 140 active customers of which approximately 75 were common customers with the Gulf Coast operations sold. The revenue from these customers of approximately $19.4 million, represents approximately 17.4% of the Company’s revenue for the year ended December 29, 2012, excluding the Gulf Coast operations sold. Contracts We generally enter into two principal types of contracts with our clients: time-and-material contracts and fixed-price contracts. Our mix of net revenue between time-and-material and fixed-price contracts is shown in the table below. Our clients typically determine the type of contract to be utilized for a particular engagement, with the specific terms and conditions of a contract resulting from a negotiation process between the Company and our client. Time-and-Material - Under our time-and-material contracts, we are paid for labor at either negotiated hourly billing rates, a multiple of our actual labor rate or through reimbursement for allowable hourly rates and other expenses. We are paid for material and contracted services at an agreed upon multiplier of our cost, and at times we pass non-labor costs for equipment, materials and subcontractor services through with little or no profit. Profitability on these contracts is driven by billable headcount, the amount of non-labor related services and cost control. Many of these contracts have upper limits, referred to as “not-to-exceed” amounts. Generally, our scope is not defined under a “not-to-exceed”agreement, and we are not under any obligation to provide services beyond the limits of the contract, but if we generate costs and billings that exceed the upper limits of the contract ceiling or are not allowable, we may be unable to obtain reimbursement for the excess cost. Further, the continuation of each contract partially depends upon the customer's discretionary periodic assessment of our performance on that contract. Table of Contents • a minimum number of work man-hours over a specified period; • the provision of at least a designated percentage of the client's requirements; • the designation of the Company as the client's sole or preferred source of services at specific locations or on specific projects; or • a non-binding preference or intent, or a general contractual framework, for what the parties expect will be an ongoing relationship.

Fixed-price projects vary in size and may include engineering activities and related services, responsibility for the procurement of materials and equipment, and oversight of any construction through a subcontractor. Fixed-price contracts carry certain inherent risks, including risks of losses from underestimating costs, delays in project completion, problems with new technologies, the impact of the economy on labor shortages, increases in equipment and materials costs, natural disasters, and other events and changes that may occur over the contract period. Another risk is our ability (or inability) to secure written change orders prior to commencing work on contract changes in scope, without which we may not receive payment for work performed. Consequently, the profitability of fixed-price contracts may vary substantially. Generally, a fixed-price project in excess of $250,000 contract value contains a contingency amount in its estimated cost at the beginning of the project. This contingency amount effectively reduces the amount of revenue recognized on the project as costs are incurred. The contingency amount is used to cover unforeseen costs incurred during the project, if any. When a project is approximately 70% complete and any remaining cost over-runs become quantifiable or unlikely, any remaining contingency is released over the remainder of the project. Our project durations range from less than one month to several years, therefore, if no contingency were used during the life of a project, the profit margin reflected in our financial statements at the end of the project could be higher than at the beginning of the project. Backlog – Continuing Operations Backlog represents an estimate of gross revenues of all awarded contracts that have not been completed and will be recognized as revenue over the life of the project. Although backlog reflects business that we consider to be firm, cancellations or scope adjustments may occur. Further, most contracts with clients may be terminated by either party at will, in which case the client would only be obligated to us for services provided through the termination date. As a result, no assurances can be given that the amounts included in backlog will ultimately be realized. In addition, it is not clear how our backlog will be impacted by current or future economic conditions. At December 28, 2013, our backlog was approximately $98.5 million, including approximately $50.9 million on the CPC Project, compared to approximately $205.3 million at December 28, 2012. Excluding the backlog attributable to the divested Gulf Coast operations from the December 28, 2012 total, backlog for December 28, 2012 would have been $123.6 million, including approximately $82.5 million in backlog on the CPC Project. This decrease in backlog is primarily due to work being completed on the CPC Project, which we have not yet replaced. With the exception of the CPC Project, we expect the majority of our backlog to be completed during 2014. We expect to complete the majority of the CPC Project backlog in 2015. The backlog at December 28, 2013 consisted of $78.0 million with commercial customers and $28.5 million with the United States government. Backlog on federal programs includes only the portion of the contract award that has been funded. The backlog for each of our segments at December 28, 2013 was as follows: Backlog includes contracts for which work authorizations have been received on a fixed-price basis or time-and-material projects that are well defined. There is no assurance as to the percentage of backlog that will be recognized under these contracts. Dependence on Suppliers Our ability to provide clients with services and systems in a timely and competitive manner depends on the availability of products and parts from our suppliers at competitive prices and on reasonable terms. Our suppliers are not obligated to have products on hand for timely delivery nor can they guarantee product availability in sufficient quantities to meet our demands. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain necessary supplies at prices or on terms we find acceptable. However, in an effort to maximize availability and maintain quality control, we generally procure components from multiple distributors on our clients' behalf and in some cases we can take advantage of national agreements our clients may have entered into. For example, all of the product components used by our Automation segment are assembled using components and materials that are available from numerous domestic manufacturers and suppliers. There are approximately five principal suppliers of distributed control systems, each of which can be replaced by an equally viable competitor, and our clients typically direct the selection of their preferred supplier. No one manufacturer or vendor provides products that account for more than 1% of our revenue. Thus, in the vast majority of cases, we anticipate little or no difficulty in obtaining components in sufficient quantities and in a timely manner to support our installation and assembly operations in the Automation segment. Units produced through the Automation segment are normally not produced for inventory and component parts; rather, they are typically purchased on an as-needed basis. By being vendor neutral, ENGlobal is able to provide quality technology and platforms for the design of plant systems such as 3D modeling, process simulation and other technical applications. Table of Contents EPCM $ 34.5 million Automation $ 64.0 million 10 Despite the foregoing, our Automation segment relies on certain suppliers for necessary components and there can be no assurance that these components will continue to be available on acceptable terms. If a vendor does not continue to contract with us, it may be difficult to obtain alternative sources of supply without a material disruption in our ability to provide products and services to our customers. While we do not believe that such a disruption is likely, if it did occur, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Patents, Trademarks, Licenses Our success depends in part upon our ability to protect our proprietary technology, which we do primarily through protection of our trade secrets and confidentiality agreements. In addition, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office issued our “Integrated Rack” patent No. 7,419,061 B1 in 2008, our “Universal Master Control Station System” patent No. 8,601,491 B1 in 2013 and our “Modular HVAC System for Providing Positive Pressure to an Interior of a Positive Pressure Facility” patent No. 8,670,870 in2014. We have additional utility patent applications pending that are associated with our “Client Configuration Tool”, our “Method of Controlling a Plurality of Master Control Stations” and “Method for Providing Positive Pressure to an Interior of a Positive Pressure Facility. Our trade names are protected by registration as well as by common law trademark rights. Our trademark for the use of “ENGlobal”® - “Engineered for Growth” ®, and “viMAC” ® in connection with our products are registered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and we claim common law trademark rights for “ENGlobal” TM in connection with our services. We also claim common law trademark rights for “Global Thinking…Global Solutions” TM , “CARES - Communicating Appropriate Responses in Emergency Situations” TM , , “riFAT” TM , and “ENGlobal Power Islands” TM . There can be no assurance that the protective measures we currently employ will be adequate to prevent the unauthorized use or disclosure of our technology, or the independent third party development of the same or similar technology. Although our competitive position to some extent depends on our ability to protect our proprietary and trade secret information, we believe that other factors, such as the technical expertise and knowledge base of our management and technical personnel, as well as the timeliness and quality of the support services we provide, will also help us to maintain our competitive position. Employees As of December 28, 2013, the Company and its subsidiaries employed approximately 430 individuals on a full-time equivalent basis compared to approximately 1,700 individuals on a full-time equivalent basis as of December 29, 2013. The reduction in personnel in 2013 was primarily attributable to the divestiture of the Inspection division of the Field Solutions segment on January 3, 2013, the Gulf Coast Engineering and Construction and in-plant operations on August 30, 2013 and reduction of Corporate overhead supporting these divested operations. We believe that our ability to recruit and retain highly skilled and experienced professional and technical personnel has been and will continue to be critical to our ability to execute our business plan. None of our employees are represented by a labor union or is subject to a collective bargaining agreement. We believe that relations with our employees are good. Government Regulations ENGlobal and certain of our subsidiaries are subject to various foreign, federal, state, and local laws and regulations relating to our business and operations, and various health and safety regulations established by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). The Company and our professional staff are subject to a variety of state, local and foreign licensing, registration and other regulatory requirements governing the practice of engineering and other professional disciplines. For example, OSHA requires Process Safety Management to prevent the release of hazardous chemicals, the Department of Transportation (DOT) requires that pipeline operators are in full compliance with pipeline safety regulations, and the Environmental and Protection Agency (EPA) provides incentives to reduce chemical emissions. Currently, we are not aware of any situation or condition relating to the regulation of the Company, its subsidiaries, or personnel that we believe is likely to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Benefit Plans ENGlobal sponsors a 401(k) profit sharing plan for its employees. The Company, at the direction of the Board of Directors, may make discretionary contributions. Our employees may elect to make contributions pursuant to a salary reduction agreement upon meeting age and length-of-service requirements. Effective October 21, 2011, the Company made matching contributions equal to 25% of employee contributions up to 6% of employee compensation for all employees. The Company elected to suspend its match to all employees effective December 29, 2012. Prior to the suspension, the Company had made contributions totaling $987,207 for the year ended December 29, 2012. The Company reinstated matching contributions on January 14, 2014. Table of Contents 11 Geographic Areas From 2011 until 2013, substantially all of our operations were in the United States. In late 2012, we began our work on the CPC Project. The CPC Project is an engineering, procurement, and commissioning services agreement with the Caspian Pipeline Consortium. Granted under two contracts, one to the Russian Federation and one to the Republic of Kazakhstan, the three-phase project is expected to have a total value of approximately $93 million over the life of the contract, of which approximately $50.9 million remains in our backlog. The Caspian Pipeline Consortium launched the CPC Project construction in 2011 and is expected to be completed in 2015. ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS Set forth below and elsewhere in this Report and in other documents that we file with the SEC are risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements contained in this Report. You should be aware that the occurrence of any of the events described in these risk factors and elsewhere in this Report could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and that upon the occurrence of any of these events, the trading price of our common stock could decline. RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS, INDUSTRY AND STRATEGY Our future revenue depends on our ability to consistently bid and win new contracts, provide high quality, cost-effective services, and to maintain and renew existing contracts. Our failure to effectively obtain future contracts could adversely affect our profitability. Our future revenue and overall results of operations require us to successfully bid on new contracts, provide high quality, cost-effective services, and renew existing contracts. Contract proposals and negotiations are complex and frequently involve a lengthy bidding and selection process, which is affected by a number of factors, such as market conditions, financing arrangements and required governmental approvals. For example, a client may require us to provide a bond or letter of credit to protect the client should we fail to perform under the terms of the contract. When negative market conditions arise, or if we fail to secure adequate financial arrangements or required governmental approvals, we may not be able to pursue particular projects, which could adversely affect our profitability. These factors have impacted our operations in the past several years and may continue to do so. The failure to attract and retain key professional personnel would materially adversely affect our business. Our success depends on attracting and retaining qualified personnel even in an environment where the contracting process is more difficult. We are dependent upon our ability to attract and retain highly qualified managerial, technical and business development personnel. In particular, competition for key management personnel continues to be intense. We cannot be certain that we will retain our key managerial, technical and business development personnel or be able to attract or assimilate key personnel in the future. Failure to attract and retain such personnel would materially adversely affect our businesses, financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Our dependence on one or a few customers could adversely affect us. One or a few clients have in the past and may in the future contribute a significant portion of our consolidated revenue in any one year or over a period of several consecutive years. In 2013, our top three clients, the Caspian Pipeline Consortium, BASF Corporation and the US Government, accounted for approximately 12.1%, 8.6% and 8.3% of our revenue, respectively. As our backlog frequently reflects multiple projects for individual clients, one major customer may comprise a significant percentage of our backlog at any point in time. Because these significant customers generally contract with us for specific projects, we may lose them in other years as their projects with us are completed. If we do not continually replace them with other customers or other projects, our business could be materially adversely affected. Also, the majority of our contracts can be terminated at will. Although we have long-standing relationships with many of our significant customers, our contracts with these customers are on a project-by-project basis and the customers may unilaterally reduce or discontinue their purchases at any time. In addition, dissatisfaction with the results of a single project could have a much more widespread impact on our ability to get additional projects from a single major client. The loss of business from any one of such customers could have a material adverse effect on our business or results of operations. Our backlog is subject to unexpected adjustments and cancellations and is, therefore, an uncertain indicator of our future revenue or earnings. As of December 28, 2013, our backlog was approximately $98.5 million, including $50.9 million for the CPC Project. Other than the CPC Project, substantially all of this backlog is expected to be completed in 2014. We expect to complete a majority of the CPC Project backlog in 2015. We cannot assure investors that the revenue projected in our backlog will be realized or, if realized, will result in profits. Projects currently in our backlog may be canceled or may remain in our backlog for an extended period of time prior to project execution and, once project execution begins, it may occur unevenly over the current and multiple future periods. In addition, project terminations, suspensions or reductions in scope occur from time to time with respect to contracts reflected in our backlog, reducing the revenue and profit we actually receive from contracts reflected in our backlog. Future project cancellations and scope adjustments could further reduce the dollar amount of our backlog and the revenue and profits that we actually earn. These adjustments are exacerbated by current economic conditions. Table of Contents 12 Our dependence on subcontractors and equipment manufacturers could adversely affect us. We rely on third party subcontractors as well as third party suppliers and manufacturers to complete our projects. To the extent that we cannot engage subcontractors or acquire supplies or materials, our ability to complete a project in a timely fashion may be impaired. If the amount we are required to pay for these goods and services exceeds the amount we have estimated in bidding for fixed-price or time-and-material contracts, we could experience losses on these contracts. In addition, if a subcontractor or supplier is unable to deliver its services or materials according to the negotiated contract terms for any reason, including the deterioration of its financial condition or over-commitment of its resources, we may be required to purchase the services or materials from another source at a higher price. This may reduce the profit to be realized or result in a loss on a project for which the services or materials were needed. If we are unable to collect our receivables, our results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected. Our business depends on our ability to successfully obtain payment from our clients of the amounts they owe us for work performed and materials supplied. We bear the risk that our clients will pay us late or not at all. Though we evaluate and attempt to monitor our clients' financial condition, there is no guarantee that we will accurately assess their creditworthiness. Even if they are credit-worthy, they may delay payments in an effort to manage their cash flow. Financial difficulties or business failure experienced by one or more of our major customers has had and could, in the future, continue to have a material adverse effect on both our ability to collect receivables and our results of operations. Liability claims could result in losses. Providing engineering and design services involves the risk of contract, professional errors and omissions and other liability claims, as well as adverse publicity. Further, many of our contracts require us to indemnify our clients not only for our negligence, if any, but also for the concurrent negligence of our clients. We currently maintain liability insurance coverage, including coverage for professional errors and omissions. However, claims outside of or exceeding our insurance coverage may be made. A significant claim could result in unexpected liabilities, take management time away from operations, and have a material adverse impact on our cash flow. We may incur significant costs in providing services in excess of original project scope without having an approved change order. After commencement of a contract, we may perform, without the benefit of an approved change order from the customer, additional services requested by the customer that were not contemplated in our contract price due to customer changes or to incomplete or inaccurate engineering, project specifications, and other similar information provided to us by the customer. Our construction contracts generally require the customer to compensate us for additional work or expenses incurred under these circumstances as long as we obtain prior written approval. A failure to obtain adequate written approvals prior to performing the work could require us to record an adjustment to revenue and profit recognized in prior periods under the percentage-of-completion accounting method. Any such adjustments, if substantial, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition, particularly for the period in which such adjustments are made. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining, through negotiation, arbitration, litigation or otherwise, approved change orders in an amount sufficient to compensate us for our additional, unapproved work or expenses. Failure to maintain adequate internal controls could adversely affect us. Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have a material adverse effect on our business and stock price. Our internal controls over financial reporting may not be adequate and our independent auditors may not be able to certify as to their adequacy. If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. If we identify deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting, our business and our stock price could be adversely affected. We have, in the past, identified material weaknesses in our internal controls, and while these have been cured, if we determine that we have further material weaknesses, it could affect our ability to ensure timely and reliable financial reports. Our business and operating results could be adversely affected by our inability to accurately estimate the overall risks, revenue or costs on a contract. Revenue recognition for a contract requires judgment relative to assessing the contracts estimated risks, revenue and costs and technical issues. Due to the size and nature of many of our contracts, the estimation of overall risk, revenue and cost at completion is complicated and subject to many variables. Changes in underlying assumptions, circumstances or estimates have in the past and may continue to adversely affect future period financial performance. Our reduced line of credit availability could limit our ability to finance operations or engage in other business activities and could have a material impact on our financial condition. Historically, we have relied on credit facilities to provide us with adequate working capital to operate our business. On August 30, 2013, we amended the PNC Credit Facility reducing the maximum amount available for borrowings thereunder from $35.0 million to $10.0 million. As of December 28, 2013, there was no balance outstanding on the amended PNC Credit Facility. This reduction in availability under the amended PNC Credit Facility will limit our ability to expand or engage in other business activities, and could have a material impact on our financial condition. Table of Contents 13 Force majeure events such as natural disasters could negatively impact the economy and the industries we service, which may negatively affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Force majeure events, such as hurricanes, could negatively impact the economies of the areas in which we operate. For example, Hurricanes Gustav and Ike caused considerable damage along the Gulf Coast not only to the refining and petrochemical industry, but also the commercial segment which competes for labor, materials and equipment resources needed throughout the entire United States. In some cases, we remain obligated to perform our services after a natural disaster even though our contracts may contain force majeure clauses. In those cases, if we are not able to react quickly and/or negotiate contractual relief on favorable terms to the Company, our operations may be significantly and adversely affected, which would have a negative impact on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Unsatisfactory safety performance can affect customer relationships, result in higher operating costs and result in high employee turnover. Our workers are subject to the normal hazards associated with providing services on construction sites and industrial facilities. Even with proper safety precautions, these hazards can lead to personal injury, loss of life, damage to, or destruction of property, plant and equipment, and environmental damages. We are intensely focused on maintaining a safe environment and reducing the risk of accidents across all of our job sites. However, poor safety performance may limit or eliminate potential revenue streams from many of our largest customers and may materially increase our future insurance and other operating costs. In hiring new employees, we normally target experienced personnel; however, we also hire inexperienced employees. Even with thorough safety training, inexperienced employees have a higher likelihood of injury which could lead to higher operating costs and insurance rates. The CPC Project, which represents a significant portion of our current business, involves a pipeline expansion project in Russia and Kazakhstan along the Caspian Sea, and we may be adversely affected by operational and political risks in that geographic region that are greater than in the United States. The CPC Project is an engineering, procurement, and commissioning services agreement with the Caspian Pipeline Consortium that is expected to have a total value of approximately $93 million over the life of the contract and represents approximately $50.9 million of our backlog at December 29, 2013. This contract involves a pipeline expansion project in Russia and Kazakhstan along the Caspian Sea. This region, specifically Russia, has undergone significant political, economic and social change in recent years, and the risk of unforeseen changes in this region may be greater than in the United States. For example, Russia and the Ukraine are experiencing significant unrest, which could escalate into armed conflict and economic sanctions by the U.S., United Nations or other countries against Russia. In addition, changes in laws or regulations, including with respect to payment of service providers, taxation, transportation, information technology, data transmission and the Internet, or in the interpretation of existing laws or regulations, whether caused by a change in government or otherwise, could materially adversely affect our ability to perform under the CPC Project and, thus, our business, operating results and financial condition. While we do not believe that the possibility of any armed conflict with respect to the situation in Russia and Ukraine will affect the region in which we perform services under the CPC Project, conducting and expanding our international operations through the CPC Project subjects us to other risks that we do not generally face in the United States. These include: The occurrence of one or more of these events could negatively affect our operations under the CPC Project and, consequently, our operating results. Further, operating in international markets requires significant management attention and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that the resources required to perform our services under the CPC Project in these other countries will produce desired levels of revenue or profitability. Table of Contents • difficulties in managing the staffing of our international operations, including hiring and retaining qualified employees and transportation of employees to and from the region; • difficulties and increased expense introducing corporate policies and controls in our international operations; • increased expense to comply with foreign laws and legal standards, including laws that regulate pricing and promotion activities and the import and export of information technology, which can be difficult to monitor and are often subject to change; • increased expense to comply with U.S. laws that apply to foreign operations, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and Office of Foreign Assets Control regulations; • longer accounts receivable payment cycles and difficulties in collecting accounts receivable; and • political, social and economic instability. 14 RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK OUTSTANDING Our Board of Directors may authorize future sales of ENGlobal common stock, which could result in a decrease in the market value to existing stockholders of the shares they hold. Our Articles of Incorporation authorize our Board of Directors to issue up to an additional 46,936,040 shares of common stock and an additional 2,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock as of the date of filing. These shares may be issued without stockholder approval unless the issuance is 20% or more of our outstanding common stock, in which case the NASDAQ requires stockholder approval. We may issue shares of stock in the future in connection with acquisitions or financings. In addition, we may issue restricted stock or options under our 2009 Equity Incentive Plan. Future issuances of substantial amounts of common stock, or the perception that these sales could occur, may affect the market price of our common stock. In addition, the ability of the Board of Directors to issue additional stock may discourage transactions involving actual or potential changes of control of the Company, including transactions that otherwise could involve payment of a premium over prevailing market prices to holders of our common stock. Our stock price could be volatile, which could cause you to lose part or all of your investment. The stock market has from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that may be unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. In particular, the market price of our common stock, like that of the securities of other energy companies, has been and may continue to be highly volatile. During 2013, the sales price of our stock ranged from a low of $0.30 per share (in April 2013) to a high of $1.88 per share (in October 2013). Factors such as announcements concerning our financial and operating results, the availability of capital, and economic and other external factors, as well as period-to-period fluctuations and financial results, may have a significant effect on the market price of our common stock. From time to time, there has been limited trading volume in our common stock. In addition, there can be no assurance that there will continue to be a trading market or that any securities research analysts will continue to provide research coverage with respect to our common stock. It is possible that such factors will adversely affect the market for our common stock. A small number of stockholders own a significant portion of our outstanding common stock, thus limiting the extent to which other stockholders can effect decisions subject to stockholder vote. Directors, executive officers and principal stockholders of ENGlobal and their affiliates, beneficially own approximately 35% of our outstanding common stock on a fully diluted basis as of the date of this Report. Accordingly, these stockholders, as a group, are able to affect the outcome of stockholder votes, including votes concerning the adoption or amendment of provisions in our Articles of Incorporation or bylaws and the approval of mergers and other significant corporate transactions. The existence of these levels of ownership concentrated in a few persons makes it unlikely that any other holder of common stock will be able to affect the management or direction of the Company. These factors may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in management or voting control of the Company. Future issuances of our securities in connection with financing transactions or under equity incentive plans could dilute current stockholders’ ownership. We may decide to raise additional funds to fund our operations through the issuance of public or private debt or equity securities. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that future issuances of debt, our common stock, other equity securities or securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock or other equity securities or the availability of any of the foregoing for future sale, will have on the market price of our common stock. The issuance of substantial amounts of our common stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock (including shares issued upon the exercise of stock options or the conversion or exchange of any convertible or exchangeable securities outstanding now or in the future), or the perception that such issuances could occur, may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock. In addition, further dilution to our existing stockholders will result, and new investors could have rights superior to existing stockholders. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES Facilities We significantly reduced our leased space in 2013. We lease space in seven buildings in the U.S. totaling approximately 210,000 square feet. The leases have remaining terms ranging from one month to five years and are on terms that we consider commercially reasonable. ENGlobal has no major encumbrances related to these properties. Our principal office is located in Houston, Texas. We have other offices in Tulsa, Oklahoma; Denver, Colorado; Mobile, Alabama; and Chicago, Illinois. Approximately 120,000 square feet of our total office space is designated for our professional, technical and administrative personnel. We believe that our office and other facilities are well maintained and adequate for existing and planned operations at each operating location. Our Automation segment performs assembly services in its Houston, Texas shop facility with approximately 81,000 square feet of space. Table of Contents 15 ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS From time to time, ENGlobal or one or more of its subsidiaries is involved in various legal proceedings or is subject to claims that arise in the ordinary course of business alleging, among other things, claims of breach of contract or negligence in connection with the performance or delivery of goods and/or services. The outcome of any such claims or proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty. As of the date of this filing, management believes that all such active proceedings and claims of substance that have been raised against the Company or any subsidiary business entity have been adequately allowed for, or are covered by insurance, such that, if determined adversely to the Company, individually or in the aggregate, they would not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position. In June 2008, ENGlobal filed an action in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana; Case Number 08-3601, against South Louisiana Ethanol LLC (“SLE”) entitled ENGlobal Engineering, Inc. and ENGlobal Construction Resources, Inc. vs. South Louisiana Ethanol, LLC . The lawsuit seeks to enforce collection of $15.8 million owed to ENGlobal and its affiliates for services performed on an ethanol plant in Louisiana. In August 2009, SLE filed for Chapter 11 protection in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana, Case Number 09-12676. Pursuant to the bankruptcy, the plant assets were sold for $6,802,000. On December 6, 2011, the court issued an order allocating proceeds from the sale and authorizing their distribution. Of the total amount, $1,054,418 was allocated to ENGlobal. Of that amount, $845,529 is still being held by the court pending the outcome of continuing litigation regarding the claims of one subcontractor. As of the date of this Report, the amount is still being held by the court. Table of Contents 16 PART II ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES Market Information and Holders The Company's common stock has been quoted on the NASDAQ Capital Market (NASDAQ - CM) under the symbol “ENG” since April 16, 2013 and the NASDAQ Global Market prior to that date. Newspaper and on-line stock listings identify us as “ENGlobal.” The following table sets forth the high and low sales prices of our common stock for the periods indicated. The foregoing prices, based on information published by NASDAQ, do not reflect retail mark-ups or markdowns and may not represent actual trades. As of December 28, 2013, approximately 238 stockholders of record held the Company's common stock. We do not have information regarding the number of holders of beneficial interests in our common stock. The Company is authorized to issue 2,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”). The Board of Directors has the authority to approve the issuance of all or any of these shares of the Preferred Stock in one or more series, to determine the number of shares constituting any series and to determine any voting powers, conversion rights, dividend rights and other designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions and rights relating to such shares without any further action by the stockholders. While there are no current plans to issue the Preferred Stock, it was authorized in order to provide the Company with flexibility, such as businesses becoming available for acquisition. Dividend Policy The Company has never declared or paid a cash dividend on its common stock. The Company intends to retain any future earnings for reinvestment in its business and does not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. In addition, restrictions contained in our loan agreement governing our credit facility with PNC Bank generally do not permit the declaration, payment or distribution of dividends on our common or preferred stock. In addition, no funds, property or assets may be used to purchase or redeem common or preferred stock. The payment of dividends in the future, if any, will depend on numerous factors, including the Company's earnings, capital requirements and operating and financial position as well as general business conditions. ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion is qualified in its entirety by, and should be read in conjunction with, our Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Overview During 2012, the substantial losses we incurred and the resulting defaults under our credit facilities raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. While we experienced a difficult 2012 and a number of challenges in 2013, we were able to divest our least attractive businesses and sell enough of our core business to pay off our debt (and cure all defaults). As of the date of this Report, we believe that we are in the strongest financial position in recent years. We are now focused on building our core business segments, Engineering, Procurement and Construction Management (“EPCM”) and Automation. In this regard, we have reduced our expenses by reducing employee headcount, closing offices and creating an enhanced operational focus on cost controls. In addition, we saw an increase in capital project spending in limited markets in 2013. As a result, we were able to generate positive cash flow from operations in 2013 and had operating profits after the sale of the Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations in August of 2013. Table of Contents Fiscal Year Ended December 28, 2013 December 29, 2012 High Low High Low First quarter $ 0.73 $ 0.50 $ 2.48 $ 2.05 Second quarter $ 1.26 $ 0.30 $ 2.75 $ 1.39 Third quarter $ 1.54 $ 0.90 $ 1.76 $ 0.50 Fourth quarter $ 1.88 $ 0.93 $ 0.70 $ 0.32 17 Our return to positive cash flow from operations began on October 11, 2012, when we announced that our Board of Directors had initiated a process to explore and consider possible strategic alternatives for enhancing shareholder value and supporting the Company's long-term financial strength. We took actions to streamline our operations, including the divestiture of our Field Solutions segment, the sale of our Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations and the implementation of project execution and expense reduction initiatives. After paying off our credit facilities and curing all defaults, we allowed the Ex-Im Credit Facility to expire and amended our PNC Credit Facility, which has availability of up to $10 million. As a result of these actions, we have positioned the Company for future growth. Our balance sheet is stronger, our cash flow is positive and, more recently, we have been generating operating income on a monthly basis. Despite the relative increase in capital project spending in certain limited markets, we believe that overall client spending continues to be limited, although we believe the overall economy is improving. Pricing continues to be very competitive. However, we have an ongoing, extremely focused marketing effort and we have seen an increase in proposal activity, as well as an increase in backlog. In particular, we are focused on significant projects located inside of the United States. Amounts reported as continuing operations in 2013 and 2012 are reported for the two segments that we continue to operate (EPCM and Automation). Results reported as discontinued operations (Electrical Services and Field Solutions) are the result of management’s decision to divest from these operations. In addition, we have provided results related to the sale of our Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations, which were considered continuing operations as of the date of sale, August 30, 2013. Results of Continuing Operations The Company's revenue from continuing operations is composed of EPCM services revenue and the sale of assembled engineered automation systems. The Company recognizes service revenue as soon as the services are performed. The majority of the Company's engineering services have historically been provided through time-and-material contracts whereas a majority of the Company's engineered automation system sales are earned on fixed-price contracts. In the course of providing our services, we routinely provide materials and equipment and may provide construction or construction management services on a subcontractor basis. Generally, these materials, equipment and subcontractor costs are passed through to our clients and reimbursed, along with handling fees, which in total are at margins lower than those of our normal core business. In accordance with industry practice and generally accepted accounting principles, all such costs and fees are included in revenue. The use of subcontractor services can change significantly from project to project; therefore, changes in revenue and gross profit, SG&A expense and operating income as a percent of revenue may not be indicative of the Company's core business trends. Segment operating SG&A expense includes management, business development and staff compensation, office costs such as rents and utilities, depreciation, amortization, travel, bad debt and other expenses generally unrelated to specific client contracts, but directly related to the support of a segment's operations. Corporate SG&A expenses includes investor relations/governance, finance, accounting, health/safety/environmental, human resources, legal and information technology which are unrelated to specific projects but which are incurred to support corporate activities. Table of Contents 18 Comparison of the years ended December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012 The following table set forth below, for the years ended December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012, provides financial data that is derived from our consolidated statements of operations (dollars in thousands, except per share data). Please note that the Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations are included for all of 2012 and the eight months ended August 30, 2013. See “Disposal of Continuing Operations” below. Revenues The $59.0 million overall decrease in revenues for the year ended December 28, 2013, as compared to the comparable 2012 period, resulted from a decrease of $13.8 million in our Automation segment and $45.2 million in our EPCM segment. The decrease in Automation revenues was a result of no longer providing automation services in the Gulf Coast region due to the disposition of the Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations and the completion of several contracts that have not been replaced. EPCM was most impacted by the sale of the Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations, resulting in $36.7 million less revenue in 2013. In addition, EPCM revenues were impacted by completion of several projects that have not been replaced. Our clients are continuing to perform smaller maintenance projects but not new capital expansions. Competition for the project work continues to be intense. Table of Contents Year ended December 28, 2013 EPCM Automation Corporate Consolidated Revenues $ 123,740 $ 45,223 $ — $ 168,963 Gross profit 12,406 8,896 — 21,302 12.6 % SG&A 7,106 3,042 11,932 22,080 13.1 % Goodwill impairment — — — — 0.0 % Operating income (loss) 5,300 5,854 (11,932 ) (778 ) (0.5 )% Other income (expense) 975 0.6 % Interest income (expense) (2,042 ) (0.9 )% Tax provision (428 ) (0.6 )% Net loss from continuing operations $ (2,273 ) (1.3 )% Loss per share from continuing operations $ (0.08 ) Year ended December 29, 2012 EPCM Automation Corporate Consolidated Revenues $ 168,930 $ 58,986 $ — $ 227,916 Gross profit 12,524 6,246 (50 ) 18,720 8.2 % SG&A 8,877 4,257 12,105 25,239 11.1 % Goodwill impairment 14,568 — — 14,568 6.4 % Operating income (loss) (10,921 ) 1,989 (12,155 ) (21,087 ) (9.3 )% Other income (expense) (100 ) — % Interest income (expense) (1,875 ) 0.8 % Tax provision (7,001 ) 3.1 % Net loss from continuing operations $ (30,063 ) 13.2 % Loss per share from continuing operations $ (1.12 ) Change in Operating Results EPCM Automation Corporate Consolidated Revenues $ (45,190 ) $ (13,763 ) $ — $ (58,953 ) Gross profit (118 ) 2,650 50 2,582 4.3 % SG&A (1,771 ) (1,215 ) (173 ) (3,159 ) (5.4 )% Goodwill impairment (14,568 ) — — (14,568 ) (24.7 )% Operating income (loss) 16,221 3,865 223 20,309 34.4 % Other income (expense) 1,075 1.8 % Interest income (expense) (167 ) 0.5 % Tax provision 6,573 11.1 % Net loss from continuing operations $ 27,790 47.1 % Loss per share from continuing operations $ 1.04 19 Gross Profit The increase in gross profit as a percentage of revenues in 2013 relative to 2012 was caused by several factors including reduced material costs as a function of current project requirements and lower variable labor costs due to an operational focus on utilization, resulting in higher margins. Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) Expenses The decrease in operating SG&A expenses for the year ended December 28, 2013, as compared to the comparable 2012 period, is primarily the result of decreases of $4.1 million in salaries and employee related expenses and decreases of $1.2 million in professional services, offset by an increase of $2.3 million in other expenses. The decrease in salaries and employee related expenses was primarily due to the divestiture of the Field Solutions segment, the Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations and the reduction of Corporate personnel supporting these divested operations. However, as a percentage of revenues, SG&A expenses increased to 13.1% for the year ended December 28, 2013, from 11.1% for the comparable 2012 period. We expect SG&A expenses to decrease as a percentage of revenues in 2014 as the reduction in Corporate personnel subsequent to the sale of the Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations will impact results for all of 2014. Goodwill Impairment Because of deteriorating market conditions in 2012, our declining financial performance and the decision to sell several of our assets, we performed an interim assessment of the carrying value of our goodwill as of September 29, 2012. We reviewed a number of factors on a segment by segment basis, including market conditions, projected cash flows, cost of capital, growth rates and other factors that could significantly impact the reported value of our goodwill. As a result of this review, we recorded a goodwill impairment of approximately $16.9 million as of December 29, 2012. Of this amount, approximately $14.5 million related to continuing operations and approximately $2.4 million relating to discontinued operations. We reviewed our remaining goodwill as of December 28, 2013 and determined no impairment was necessary. Operating Income (Loss) We generated operating loss for the year ended December 28, 2013 of $0.8 million, as compared to an operating loss of $21.1 million for the year ended December 29, 2012, an improvement of $20.3 million. In 2013, we improved our gross profit margin by $2.6 million, and we reduced our SG&A expenses by $3.2 million. In 2012, we recorded an impairment of goodwill in the EPCM segment of $14.5 million compared to no impairment in 2013. Interest Income (Expense) Interest expense increased between 2013 and 2012 due to increased interest rates in 2013, as compared to 2012, partially offset by decreased borrowings in 2013. As a result of defaults under the PNC Credit Facility, the interest rate applicable to the borrowings under the PNC Credit Facility increased from 4% to 7% from June 2012 until August 30, 2013. In addition, the Company paid additional fees and expenses associated with the default in 2013. (Provision) benefit for federal and state income taxes The provision for federal income taxes decreased $6.6 million for the year ended December 28, 2013 versus the year ended December 29, 2012. In 2012, the Company reversed a previously recorded deferred tax benefit of $6.8 million. Net Income (Loss) As a result of changes detailed above, our net loss from continuing operations decreased $27.8 million to a loss of $2.3 million in 2013 from a loss of $30.1 million in 2012, decreasing as a percentage of total revenue to (1.35)% in 2013 from (13.2)% in 2012. Table of Contents 20 Disposal of Continuing Operations On August 30, 2013, we completed the sale of substantially all of our Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations to a subsidiary of Furmanite Corporation. The total value of the transaction to ENGlobal was $17 million, consisting primarily of $15 million of cash and a $3.0 million promissory note issued at 4% interest with a Furmanite Corporation guarantee. The transaction resulted in a $721,000 gain on the sale of these operations. ENGlobal used most of the net proceeds from this transaction to repay advances and cure defaults under the PNC Credit Facility. As a result of this transaction, approximately 900 employees transferred from ENGlobal to Furmanite. In conjunction with this sale, the Company reduced its corporate selling, general and administrative expenses to support ongoing continuing operations. The impact of the sale of these operations are summarized as follows (dollars in thousands): Ongoing continuing operations revenues decreased by $22.2 million in 2013 versus 2012. This decrease was attributable to a decrease in Automation revenues of $13.8 million and a decrease in EPCM revenues of $8.5 million (net of the impact of the sale of the Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations). (See “Results of Continuing Operations”). We expect ongoing SG&A expenses to decrease in 2014 because of reductions in staff and other Corporate SG&A expenses resulting from the sale of the Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations during the last four months of 2013. Discontinued Operations During the third quarter of 2011, the Company determined that the expected future profitability of the Electrical Services group was not sufficient to support maintaining it as a viable business. As a result, effective July 1, 2011, the Company initiated a plan to sell the operations of its Electrical Services group. The Company was unable to sell the Electrical Services group as planned and decided to dispose of substantially all of the group’s remaining assets. During the third quarter of 2012, the Company completed the disposal of the group’s remaining assets concurrent with the completion of the last remaining lump sum project. On September 10, 2012, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Field Solutions segment. The Field Solutions segment included the Land and Right-of-Way and Inspection divisions, primarily serving pipeline and electric power companies. On November 2, 2012, the Company completed the divestiture of its Land and Right-of-Way division of its Field Solutions segment effective October 26, 2012. The transaction was valued at approximately $7.5 million, consisting of approximately $4.5 million in retained working capital and a $3.0 million promissory note payable to the Company over four years. We have reserved the full amount of the $3.0 million promissory note due to collectability being in doubt. Effective January 3, 2013, the Company completed the divestiture of the Inspection division. The transaction was valued at approximately $7.9 million, consisting of $1.0 million cash at closing, $5.0 million in retained working capital and a $1.9 million promissory note payable to the Company over four years. Table of Contents 2013 Continuing Operations: Year Ended December 28, 2013 Disposed Continuing Operations Ongoing Continuing Operations Operating revenues $ 168,963 $ 79,768 $ 89,195 Operating costs 147,661 72,954 74,707 Gross profit 21,302 6,814 14,488 Selling, general and administrative expenses 22,080 2,748 19,332 Operating income (loss) $ (778 ) $ 4,066 $ (4,844 ) 2012 Continuing Operations: Year Ended December 29, 2012 Disposed Continuing Operations Ongoing Continuing Operations Operating revenues $ 227,916 $ 116,498 $ 111,418 Operating costs 209,196 109,603 99,593 Gross profit 18,720 6,895 11,825 Selling, general and administrative expenses 25,239 3,867 21,372 Operating income (loss) $ (6,519 ) $ 3,028 $ (9,547 ) 21 The operations of the Electrical Services group and the Field Solutions segment have been classified as discontinued operations and accordingly, are presented as discontinued operations in the Company's re-cast consolidated financial statements. The results of the discontinued operations are shown on the Consolidated Statements of Operations as "Loss from discontinued operations, net of taxes". Summarized financial information for the discontinued operations is shown below (dollars in thousands): Liquidity and Capital Resources Overview The Company defines liquidity as its ability to pay liabilities as they become due, fund business operations and meet monetary contractual obligations. Our primary sources of liquidity are internally generated funds and up to $10 million of availability under the amended PNC Credit Facility discussed under “Line of Credit Facility” below. There were no borrowings outstanding under the facility as of December 28, 2013 and March 13, 2014 and we had cash of approximately $4.0 million and $4.9 million at December 28, 2013 and March 13, 2014, respectively. Our working capital as of December 28, 2013 was $13.2 million versus $13.3 million as of December 29, 2012. We believe our current cash on hand, availability under our credit facility and our other working capital are sufficient to fund our ongoing operations. Cash and the availability of cash could be materially restricted if (1) outstanding invoices billed are not collected or are not collected in a timely manner, (2) circumstances prevent the timely internal processing of invoices, (3) we lose one or more of our major customers, or (4) we are unable to win new projects that we can perform on a profitable basis. In the third quarter of 2012 we initiated a process to explore and consider possible strategic alternatives for enhancing shareholder value and supporting the Company's long-term financial strength. We streamlined our operations, divested of our Field Solutions segment, sold our Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations, implemented project execution and expense reduction initiatives, retired the Ex-IM Bank Facility, cured all defaults and amended the PNC Credit Facility. As a result, our liquidity and access to working capital were significantly strengthened during 2013. Cash Flows from Operating Activities Operating activities provided approximately $10.7 million in net cash during the year ended December 28, 2013, compared with net cash used in operations of $5.0 million during the comparable period in 2012. The primary changes in working capital accounts during the year ended December 28, 2013 were the decrease in costs in excess of billings and in trade receivables which were primarily the result of the collection of the retained working capital related to the divested Field Solutions segment, the sale of our Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations and receivables related to the Caspian Pipeline Consortium, partially offset by applying a portion of the collected funds to reduce outstanding vendor payables. Cash Flows from Investing Activities Investing activities provided cash totaling $19.4 million for the year ended December 28, 2013, and used $3.7 million for the comparable period in 2012. The primary reasons for the change were the result of restricted cash used to partially collateralize our letter of credit related to the Ex-Im Letter of Credit Facility being released in conjunction with its expiration in June 2013 and proceeds from the sale of the Inspection division of the Field Solutions segment in the first quarter of 2013 and sale of the Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations in the third quarter of 2013. Future investing activities are anticipated to remain consistent with prior years, in principal, and include capital additions for leasehold improvements and technical applications. The Company uses vendor leasing programs as needed to keep technology up-to-date on its software and equipment, such as upgrades to computers. The amended PNC Credit Facility limits our annual capital expenditures to $3.5 million. Table of Contents Year Ended December 28, December 29, Statement of Operations Data: 2013 2012 Revenues $ — $ 60,822 Operating costs — 62,076 Goodwill impairment — (2,397 ) Operating loss — (3,651 ) Gain (loss) on sale (716 ) 113 Net loss $ (716 ) $ (3,538 ) 22 Cash Flows from Financing Activities Financing activities used cash totaling approximately $26.8 million during the year ended December 28, 2013 and provided cash totaling $9.5 million during the year ended December 29, 2012. Our primary financing mechanism was our line of credit under the PNC Credit Facility and our predecessor facility, the Wells Fargo Credit Facility. During the year ended December 28, 2013, our borrowings under the line of credit were $178.2 million in the aggregate and we repaid an aggregate of $205.1 million, aided by the release of collateral related to the Ex-Im Letter of Credit Facility, liquidation of the working capital related to divestiture of the Field Solutions segment and the sale of substantially all of the Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations. During the year ended December 29, 2012, our borrowings under the line of credit were $205.3 million in the aggregate and we repaid an aggregate of $194.8 million. Line of Credit Facility On May 29, 2012, the Company entered into the PNC Credit Facility with PNC Bank, National Association, as administrative agent for the lenders (the "Lenders") pursuant to which the Lenders agreed to extend credit to the Company in the form of loans (each a "Loan" and collectively, the "Loans") on a revolving basis of up to $35.0 million (the "Commitment"). From September 29, 2012 until August 30, 2013, the Company was not in compliance with the certain financial covenants of the PNC Credit Facility. On August 30, 2013, the Company amended the PNC Credit Facility. Under the terms of the amended PNC Credit Facility, PNC consented to the disposal of the Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations, waived the existing events of default and ceased the charging of interest on outstanding indebtedness at the default rate of 7%. The Company also executed an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note with PNC which effectively reduced the maximum borrowing amount from $35.0 million to $10.0 million. The amended PNC Credit Facility will mature on September 30, 2014. Set forth below are certain of the material terms of the amended PNC Credit Facility: Revolving Advances: Each Lender, severally and not jointly, will make revolving advances to the Company in aggregate amounts outstanding at any time equal to such Lender's Commitment Percentage of the lesser of (a) $10.0 million less the maximum undrawn amount on all outstanding letters of credit, or (b) an amount equal to the sum of: (i) up to 85% of Eligible Receivables, plus (ii) up to the lesser of (x) up to 85% of Eligible Extended Term Receivables or (y) $1.5 million, plus (iii) up to the lesser of (x) up to 85% of Eligible Government Receivables or (y) $800,000, plus (iv) up to the lesser of (x) 75% of Eligible Unbilled Receivables or (y) $4.0 million; provided, however, that no more than $800,000 of the amount resulting from the calculation of this part (iv) may be attributable to Eligible Unbilled Receivables owed by Government Customers, plus (v) up to the lesser of (x) up to 50% of Eligible Costs in Excess of Billings or (y) $4.0 million, minus (vi) the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding letters of credit, minus (vii) such reserves as Agent may deem proper and necessary in the exercise of its discretion. Certain of the percentages and dollar amounts discussed above may be increased or decreased by Agent at any time, so long as such increase or decrease is reasonable and done in good faith. Interest: Any Loans will bear interest at (a) the sum of the Alternate Base Rate (defined as a fluctuating rate equal to the highest of (x) the commercial lending rate of Agent as publicly announced and in effect on such day, (y) the daily federal funds open rate as quoted by ICAP North America, Inc. in effect on such day plus 1/2 of 1%, and (z) the Daily Libor Rate plus 1% with the Daily LIBOR Rate determined by taking the LIBOR rate published in the Wall Street Journal and dividing it by a number equal to 1 minus the reserve percentage on that day as determined by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve), plus 2.75% for Domestic Rate Loans or (b) the sum of the Eurodollar Rate (defined as a fluctuating rate determined by Agent by dividing the quoted LIBOR rate by a number equal to 1 minus the reserve percentage on that day as determined by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve), plus 3.75%. Collateral: All obligations of the Company under the loan agreement are secured by a first priority perfected lien against any and all personal property assets of the Company (other than certain excluded property). Term : All Loans and all other obligations outstanding under the loan agreement shall be payable in full on September 30, 2014, unless otherwise terminated pursuant to the terms of the loan agreement. Table of Contents 23 Covenants: The loan agreement requires the Company to comply with various financial, affirmative and negative covenants affecting their businesses and operations, including: The Company is in compliance with all of the covenants of the amended PNC Credit Facility as of the date of this Report. Letter of Credit Facility In July 2011, with the support of Wells Fargo's Global Banking Group, ENGlobal and the Export-Import Bank of the United States (“Ex-Im Bank”) entered into a separate $9.5 million letter of credit facility (the “Ex-Im Bank Facility”) to support the Company's CPC Project. Under the terms of this agreement, the Company could issue letters of credit to CPC for its performance under the CPC Project. The Company was required to collateralize letters of credit outstanding under the Ex-Im Bank Facility with cash or eligible Russian receivables resulting from the CPC Project. On June 17, 2013, these letters of credit were allowed to expire as the Company implemented an alternative option to modify terms of future retention amounts in lieu of letters of credit. As a result of the expiration of these letters of credit, $6.1 million of restricted cash was released and applied to advances under the PNC Credit Facility. The expiration of these letters of credit have not impacted our ability to generate revenue from this project. The parties have subsequently agreed to an amendment of the service agreement governing the CPC Project with the following terms in the absence of a letter of credit facility or other performance bank guarantee in place: Long-term Notes Receivable In June 2008, ENGlobal filed an action in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana; Case Number 08-3601, against South Louisiana Ethanol LLC (“SLE”) entitled ENGlobal Engineering, Inc. and ENGlobal Construction Resources, Inc. vs. South Louisiana Ethanol, LLC . The lawsuit seeks to enforce collection of $15.8 million owed to ENGlobal and its affiliates for services performed on an ethanol plant in Louisiana. In August 2009, SLE file for Chapter 11 protection in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana, Case Number 09-12676. Pursuant to the bankruptcy, the plant assets were sold for $6,802,000. On December 6, 2011, the court issued an order allocating proceeds from the sale and authorizing their distribution. Of the total amount, $1,054,418 was allocated to ENGlobal. Of that amount, $845,529 is still being held by the court pending the outcome of continuing litigation regarding the claims of one subcontractor. As of the date of this Report, the amount is still being held by the court.

In the sale of the Land and Right-of-Way division of the Field Solutions segment in the fourth quarter of 2012, the buyer issued a note of $3.0 million to the Company payable over four years. We have reserved the full amount of the $3.0 million promissory note due to collectability being in doubt. In the sale of the Inspection division of the Field Solutions segment in the first quarter of 2013, the buyer issued a note of $1.9 million to the Company payable over four years. Regarding this note, we have offset the payment of $535,000 due on January 4, 2014 by the buyer against our payable owed to the buyer with respect to the sale of the Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations. No other payments by the buyer are due until the third quarter of 2014. Accounts Receivable Management We typically sell our products and services on short-term credit and seek to minimize our credit risk by performing credit checks and conducting our own collection efforts. Our trade accounts receivable decreased to $26.8 million as of December 28, 2013 from $52.5 million as of December 29, 2012. The number of days outstanding for trade accounts receivable decreased to 72 days at December 28, 2013 from 78 days at December 29, 2012. Bad debt expense was approximately 0.01% and 0.4% of revenue for the years ended December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012, respectively. We decreased our allowance for doubtful accounts from $2.6 million to $2.3 million, or 4.7% and 7.9% of trade accounts receivable balance, for each of the years 2012 and 2013, respectively. We continue to manage this portion of our business very carefully. Risk Management In performing services for our clients, we could potentially face liability for breach of contract, personal injury, property damage or negligence, including professional errors and omissions. We often agree to indemnify our clients for losses and expenses incurred as a result of our negligence and, in certain cases, the sole or concurrent negligence of our clients. Our quality control and assurance program includes a control function to establish standards and procedures for performance and for documentation of project tasks, and an assurance function to audit and to monitor compliance with procedures and quality standards. We maintain liability insurance for bodily injury and third party property damage, professional errors and omissions, and workers' compensation coverage, which we consider sufficient to insure against these risks, subject to self-insured amounts. Seasonality Our revenues are generated by services, and therefore holidays and employee vacations during our fourth quarter negatively impact revenues for that quarter, which is only partially offset by the year-end efforts on the part of many clients to spend any remaining funds budgeted for services and capital expenditures during the year. Our clients' annual budget process is normally completed in the first quarter, which can slow the award of new work at the beginning of the year. Principally due to these factors, our first and fourth quarters are typically less robust than our second and third quarters. Critical Accounting Policies Revenue Recognition A large portion of the Company's revenue is recognized under time-and-material contracts. Significant estimates are generally not involved in determining revenue recognition for these types of contracts. Significant estimates are involved in determining revenue recognition for fixed-price contracts. Most of our contracts are with Fortune 500 companies. As a result, collection risk is generally not a relevant factor in the recognition of revenue. However, timing of accounts receivable collections could have a serious impact in the Company's liquidity. We have instituted policies to determine the creditworthiness of new customers. Adverse changes in the economy are likely to impact smaller companies' ability to undertake and finance projects. Our revenue is largely composed of engineering service revenue and product sales. The majority of our services are provided through time-and-material contracts (also referred to as cost-plus contracts). Some contracts have not-to-exceed provisions that place a cap on the revenue that we may receive under a particular contract. The contract is awarded with the maximum aggregate revenue, referred to as the not-to-exceed amount. The Company does not earn revenue over the not-to-exceed amount unless we obtain a change order. The current amount of revenue deferred for these reasons is $0.3 million. The Company is not obligated to complete the contract once the not-to-exceed amount has been reached. However, if the Company performs work over the not-to-exceed amount prior to obtaining a valid change order, our gross profit margins are negatively impacted. Billings on time-and-material contracts are produced every two weeks. Table of Contents 25 Revenue on fixed-price contracts is recorded primarily using the percentage-of-completion (cost-to-cost) method. Under this method, revenue on long-term contracts is recognized in the ratio that contract costs incurred bear to total estimated contract costs. Revenue and gross margin on fixed-price contracts are subject to revision throughout the lives of the contracts and any required adjustments are made in the period in which the revisions become known. To manage unknown risks, management uses contingency amounts to increase the estimated costs, therefore, lowering the earned revenues until the risks are better identified and quantified or have been mitigated.. Losses on contracts are recorded in full as they are identified. The asset, “costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts,” represents revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed on fixed-price contracts. The Company's inability to manage significant levels or increases in “costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts” could have a serious impact on the Company's cash flow. The liability “billings in excess of costs and estimated profits on uncompleted contracts” represents amounts billed in excess of revenue recognized on fixed-price contracts. Costs related to change orders are recognized when they are incurred. Change orders are included in the total estimated contract revenue when it is more likely than not that the change orders will result in a bona fide addition to value that can be reliably estimated. Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of acquisitions over the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is not amortized and is tested at least annually for impairment. In September 2010, the FASB issued guidance which gives companies the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount and bypass the two-step impairment test. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012. Income Taxes The Company accounts for deferred income taxes in accordance with the asset and liability method, whereby deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the respective tax basis of its assets and liabilities. The provision for income taxes represents the current taxes payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the tax effect of the net change in the deferred tax assets and liabilities during the period. Valuation allowances are provided for deferred tax assets when their recovery is doubtful. Table of Contents 26 ITEM 8.

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ENGlobal Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. /s/ Hein & Associates LLP Hein & Associates LLP Houston, Texas March 14, 2014 Table of Contents 28 ENGLOBAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts) See accompanying notes to these consolidated financial statements.

Unless the context requires otherwise, references to “we”, “us”, “our”, “the Company” or “ENGlobal” are intended to mean the consolidated business and operations of ENGlobal Corporation. Our business operations consist of providing engineering and other professional project services related to design, assembly, procurement, maintenance, environmental and other governmental compliance and construction management, primarily with respect to energy sector infrastructure facilities throughout the United States. Please see “Note 15 - Segment Information” for a description of our segments and segment operations. Basis of Presentation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes present our consolidated financial position as of December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012, and the results of our operations, cash flows and changes in stockholders' equity for the 52 week periods ended December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012. They are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Certain amounts for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. In preparing financial statements, management makes informed judgments and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, management reviews its estimates, including those related to percentage-of-completion contracts in progress, litigation, income taxes, impairment of long-lived assets and fair values. Changes in facts and circumstances or discovery of new information may result in revised estimates. Actual results could differ from these estimates. On January 1, 2012, we changed from a traditional month-end calendar close cycle to a 4-4-5 calendar close methodology. Under this new methodology, each quarter (formerly comprised of 3 calendar months) is comprised of 13 weeks. This change in accounting periods has not had a material effect on the comparability to prior periods. NOTE 2 - ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS Consolidation Policy - Our consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our majority-owned subsidiaries in which we have a controlling interest after the elimination of all material inter-company accounts and transactions. Currently, all of our subsidiaries are wholly-owned. Cash and cash equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents include all cash on hand, demand deposits and investments with original maturities of three months or less. We consider cash equivalents to include short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. The Company was required to collateralize letters of credit outstanding under the Ex-Im Bank Facility with cash or eligible receivables resulting from the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC) project. As of December 29, 2012, $6.1 million in restricted cash served as collateral for the letters of credit. These letters of credit were allowed to expire on June 17, 2013 and the restricted cash was released. The Company utilizes a cash management system whereby bank accounts are swept daily to reduce outstanding balances on the Company's line of credit. Major operating bank accounts are automatically replenished daily to meet check-clearing requirements. Outstanding checks are recorded as a reduction of cash when they are issued. Our checks that have not yet been paid by banks at the reporting date are reclassified to accounts payable in the financial statements. Amounts reclassified to accounts payable for outstanding checks were $0.6 million and $1.4 million as of December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012, respectively. Receivables - Our components of trade receivables includes amounts billed, amounts unbilled, retainage and allowance for doubtful accounts. Subject to our allowance for uncollectible accounts, all amounts are believed to be collectible within a year. There are no amounts unbilled representing claims or other similar items subject to uncertainty concerning their determination or ultimate realization. In estimating the allowance for uncollectible accounts, we consider the length of time receivable balances have been outstanding, historical collection experience, current economic conditions and customer specific information. When we ultimately conclude that a receivable is uncollectible, the balance is charged against the allowance for uncollectible accounts. Table of Contents 33 ENGLOBAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Concentration of Credit Risk - Financial instruments which potentially subject ENGlobal to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of trade accounts and notes receivable. Although our services are provided largely to the energy sector, management believes the risk due to this concentration is limited because a significant portion of our services are provided under contracts with major integrated oil and gas companies and other industry leaders. When the Company enters into contracts with smaller customers, it incurs an increased credit risk. We extend credit to customers and other parties in the normal course of business. We have established various procedures to manage our credit exposure, including initial credit approvals, credit limits and terms, letters of credit, and occasionally through rights of offset. We also use prepayments and guarantees to limit credit risk to ensure that our established credit criteria are met. Our most significant exposure to credit risks relates to situations under which we provide services early in the life of a project that is dependent on financing. Risks increase in times of general economic downturns and under conditions that threaten project feasibility. Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated service lives of our asset groups are as follows: Leasehold improvements are amortized over the term of the related lease. See Note 6 for details related to property and equipment and related depreciation. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Upon disposition or retirement of property and equipment, any gain or loss is charged to operations. Debt Issue Costs - Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of long-term debt are capitalized and charged to interest expense over the term of the related debt on a straight-line basis, which approximates the interest method. The total amount of debt issue costs capitalized was $121,000 and $870,000 at December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012, respectively. Goodwill and other intangible assets - Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of acquisitions over the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is not amortized and is tested at least annually for impairment. In September 2010, the FASB issued guidance which gives companies the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount and bypass the two-step impairment test. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012. We performed a qualitative assessment of goodwill at December 28, 2013 and determined it was not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than the carrying value of the remaining goodwill and, therefore, no goodwill impairment adjustment was required. Intangible assets are comprised primarily of non-competition covenants, customer relationships and developed technology acquired through acquisitions and are amortized using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful life of the intangible assets. We review intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. This review consists of comparing the carrying value of the asset with the asset's expected future undiscounted cash flows. Estimates of expected future cash flows represent management's best estimate based on reasonable and supportable assumptions. If such a review should indicate that the carrying amount of intangible assets is not recoverable, we reduce the carrying amount of such assets to fair value. We performed a qualitative assessment of intangible assets at December 28, 2013 and determined the asset's expected future undiscounted cash flows exceeded the carrying value of the related asset and no impairment adjustments were necessary See “Note 7 – Goodwill” for details related to Goodwill. Table of Contents Asset Group Years Shop equipment 7 -10 Furniture and fixtures 5 -7 Computer equipment; Autos and trucks 3 -5 Software 3 -5 34 ENGLOBAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - We review property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The carrying amount is deemed not recoverable if it exceeds the undiscounted sum of the cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. Estimates of expected future cash flows represent management's best estimate based on reasonable and supportable assumptions. If the carrying amount is not recoverable, the impairment loss is measured as the excess of the asset's carrying value over its fair value. We assess the fair value of long-lived assets using commonly accepted techniques, and may use more than one method, including, but not limited to, recent third party comparable sales, internally developed discounted cash flow analysis and analysis from outside advisors. We performed a qualitative assessment of long-lived assets at December 28, 2013 and determined that no impairment adjustments were necessary Revenue Recognition - Our revenue is comprised of engineering, construction management and procurement service fees and sales of integrated control systems that we design and assemble. In general, we recognize revenues when all of the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an exchange arrangement exists, if applicable, (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (3) the price is fixed or determinable, and (4) collection is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes service revenue as the services are performed. The majority of the Company's engineering services are provided under time-and-material contracts. Some time-and-material contracts may have upper limits referred to as "not-to-exceed" amounts. Revenue is not recognized over these amounts until a change order or authorization by the client has been given. A majority of sales of assembled systems are under fixed-price contracts that may also include a service element covered under that contract price. Profits and losses on our fixed-price contracts are recognized on the percentage-of-completion method of accounting, measured by the percentage-of-contract cost incurred to date relative to estimated total contract cost. Contract costs used for estimating percentage-of-completion factors include professional compensation and related benefits, materials, subcontractor services and other direct cost of projects. Costs recognized for labor include all actual employee compensation plus a burden factor to cover estimated variable labor expenses. These variable labor expenses consist of payroll taxes, self-insured medical plan expenses, workers' compensation insurance, general liability insurance and paid time off. Under the percentage-of-completion method, revenue recognition is dependent upon the accuracy of a variety of estimates, including the progress of engineering and design efforts, material installation, labor productivity, cost estimates and others. These estimates are based on various professional judgments and are difficult to accurately determine until projects are significantly underway. Due to uncertainties inherent to the estimation process, it is possible that actual percentage-of-completion may vary materially from our estimates. Estimating errors may cause errors in revenue recognition on uncompleted contracts and may even result in losses on the contracts. Anticipated losses on uncompleted contracts are charged to operations as soon as such losses can be estimated. Changes in job performance, job conditions, estimated profitability and final contract settlements may result in revisions to costs and revenues and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined. Costs related to change orders are recognized when they are incurred. Change orders are included in the total estimated contract revenue when it is more likely than not that the change orders will result in a bona fide addition to value that can be reliably estimated. Income Taxes - The Company accounts for deferred income taxes in accordance with the asset and liability method, whereby deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the respective tax basis of its assets and liabilities. The provision for income taxes represents the current taxes payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the tax effect of the net change in the deferred tax assets and liabilities during the period. Valuation allowances are provided for deferred tax assets when their recovery is doubtful. The Company files income tax returns in federal, state and foreign jurisdictions as more fully described in “Note 14 – Federal and State Income Taxes.” It has not taken an uncertain tax position as defined by authoritative accounting literature and does not expect to take such a position on a tax return not yet filed. Earnings (loss) per share - The Company's basic earnings (loss) per share (EPS) amounts have been computed based on the average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS amounts include the effect of common stock equivalents associated with outstanding stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units under the treasury stock method, if including such potential shares of common stock is dilutive. Because the Company has incurred losses for all periods presented, these common stock equivalents were antidilutive, thus not included in the calculation of earnings (loss) per share. Table of Contents 35 ENGLOBAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 3 - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS Effective July 1, 2011, the Company initiated a plan to sell the operations of its Electrical Services group. The Company was unable to sell the Electrical Services group as planned and decided to dispose of substantially all of the group’s remaining assets during the third quarter of 2012 with the completion of the last remaining lump sum project. Effective September 10, 2012, the Company initiated a plan to sell its Field Solutions segment. The Field Solutions segment included the Land and Right-of-Way and Inspection divisions, primarily serving pipeline and electric power companies. The Company completed the divestiture of its Land and Right-of-Way division of its Field Solutions segment effective October 26, 2012. The transaction was valued at approximately $7.5 million, consisting of approximately $4.5 million in retained working capital and a $3.0 million promissory note payable to the Company over four years. We have reserved the full amount of the $3.0 million promissory note due to collectability being in doubt. On January 3, 2013, the Company completed the divestiture of the Inspection division. The transaction was valued at approximately $7.9 million, consisting of $1.0 million cash at closing, $5.0 million in retained working capital and a $1.9 million promissory note payable to the Company over four years. We have offset the payment due on January 4, 2014 by the buyer of the Inspection division against our payable to them with respect to the sale of the Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations. No other payments by the buyer are due until the third quarter of 2014. The operations of the Electrical Services group and the Field Solutions segment have been classified as discontinued operations and accordingly, are presented as discontinued operations in the Company's consolidated financial statements. The net assets and liabilities related to the discontinued operations are shown on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as "Assets held for sale" and "Liabilities held for sale," respectively, at December 29, 2012. The results of the discontinued operations are shown on the Consolidated Statements of Operations as "Loss from discontinued operations, net of taxes". Summarized operations data for the discontinued operations is shown below (dollars in thousands): NOTE 4 – DISPOSAL OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS On August 30, 2013, the Company completed the sale of substantially all of our Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations to a subsidiary of Furmanite Corporation. The total value of the transaction to ENGlobal was $17 million, consisting primarily of $14 million of net cash and a $3.0 million promissory note issued at 4% interest with a Furmanite Corporation guarantee. The transaction resulted in a $721,000 gain on the sale of these operations. ENGlobal used most of the net proceeds from this transaction to repay advances under the PNC Credit Facility. As a result of this transaction, approximately 900 employees transferred from ENGlobal to Furmanite. In conjunction with this sale, the Company reduced its corporate selling, general and administrative expenses to support ongoing continuing operations. The impact of the sale of these operations are summarized as follows (dollars in thousands): Table of Contents December 28, December 29, Statement of Operations Data: 2013 2012 Revenues $ — $ 60,822 Operating costs — 62,076 Operating loss — (1,254 ) Goodwill impairment — (2,397 ) Gain (loss) on sale (716 ) 113 Net loss $ (716 ) $ (3,538 ) 2013 Continuing Operations: Year Ended December 28, 2013 Disposed Continuing Operations Ongoing Continuing Operations Operating revenues $ 168,963 $ 79,768 $ 89,195 Operating costs 147,661 72,954 74,707 Gross profit 21,302 6,814 14,488 Selling, general and administrative expenses 22,080 2,748 19,332 Operating income (loss) $ (778 ) $ 4,066 $ (4,844 ) 36 ENGLOBAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Selling, general and administrative expenses for disposed continuing operations only include expenses incurred at the facilities that were purchased by Furmanite. Selling, general and administrative expenses incurred at Corporate are excluded. NOTE 5 - DETAIL OF CERTAIN BALANCE SHEET ACCOUNTS The components of trade receivables as of December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012, are as follows (dollars in thousands): Subject to our allowance for uncollectible accounts, all amounts listed are believed to be collectible within a year.

ASC Topic 350-20-35 requires a two-step process, (1) determining the fair value of the reporting units and (2) measuring the amount of the impairment if the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit. In determining fair value of the reporting segments, we reviewed cash flow projections, the weighted average cost of capital and the sustainable growth rate. As a result of this review, we concluded the carrying amount exceeded the fair value of our Engineering and Construction segment and the Land and Right-of-Way division in our Field Solutions segment and recorded a goodwill impairment of approximately $16.9 million as of September 29, 2012. Of this amount, approximately $14.5 million related to continuing operations and approximately $2.4 million related to discontinued operations. In the fourth quarter, we divested approximately $2.8 million in goodwill in the Field Solutions segment as a result of the closing of the sale of the Land and Right-of-Way division. Summarized financial information for goodwill is shown below (dollars in thousands): We performed a similar review as of December 28, 2013 and determined no impairment was necessary. As a result, the goodwill balance at December 28, 2013 remains at $2.8 million. NOTE 8 - CONTRACTS Costs, estimated earnings and billings on uncompleted contracts consisted of the following at December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012 (dollars in thousands): Revenue on fixed-price contracts is recorded primarily using the percentage-of-completion (cost-to-cost) method. Revenue and gross margin on fixed-price contracts are subject to revision throughout the lives of the contracts and any required adjustments are made in the period in which the revisions become known. To manage unknown risks, management may use contingency amounts to increase the estimated costs, therefore, lowering the earned revenues until the risks are better identified and quantified or have been mitigated. We currently have $3.6 million in contingency amounts as of December 28, 2013 compared to $4.4 million as of December 29, 2012. Losses on contracts are recorded in full as they are identified.

For clients that we consider higher risk, due to past payment history or history of not providing written work authorizations, we have deferred revenue recognition until we receive either a written authorization or a payment. The current amount of revenue deferred for these reasons is $0.1 million as of December 28, 2013 compared to $0.4 million as of December 29, 2012. NOTE 9 - CREDIT FACILITIES Line of Credit Facility On May 29, 2012, the Company entered into the PNC Credit Facility with PNC, Bank, National Association, as administrative agent for the lenders (the "Lenders") pursuant to which the Lenders agreed to extend credit to the Company in the form of loans (each a "Loan" and collectively, the "Loans") on a revolving basis of up to $35.0 million (the "Commitment"). From September 29, 2012 until August 30, 2013, the Company was not in compliance with certain financial covenants of the PNC Credit Facility. On August 30, 2013, the Company amended the PNC Credit Facility. Under the terms of the amended PNC Credit Facility, PNC consented to the disposal of the Gulf Coast engineering and construction and in-plant operations, waived the existing events of default and ceased charging interest on outstanding indebtedness at the default rate of 7%. The Company also executed an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note with PNC which effectively reduced the maximum borrowing amount from $35.0 million to $10.0 million. The amended PNC Credit Facility will mature on September 30, 2014. Set forth below are certain of the material terms of the amended PNC Credit Facility: Revolving Advances: Each Lender, severally and not jointly, will make revolving advances to the Company in aggregate amounts outstanding at any time equal to such Lender's Commitment Percentage of the lesser of (a) $10.0 million less the maximum undrawn amount on all outstanding letters of credit, or (b) an amount equal to the sum of: (i) up to 85% of Eligible Receivables, plus (ii) up to the lesser of (x) up to 85% of Eligible Extended Term Receivables or (y) $1.5 million, plus (iii) up to the lesser of (x) up to 85% of Eligible Government Receivables or (y) $800,000, plus (iv) up to the lesser of (x) 75% of Eligible Unbilled Receivables or (y) $4.0 million; provided, however, that no more than $800,000 of the amount resulting from the calculation of this part (iv) may be attributable to Eligible Unbilled Receivables owed by Government Customers, plus (v) up to the lesser of (x) up to 50% of Eligible Costs in Excess of Billings or (y) $4.0 million, minus (vi) the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding letters of credit, minus (vii) such reserves as Agent may deem proper and necessary in the exercise of its discretion. Certain of the percentages and dollar amounts discussed above may be increased or decreased by Agent at any time, so long as such increase or decrease is reasonable and done in good faith. Interest: Any Loans will bear interest at (a) the sum of the Alternate Base Rate (defined as a fluctuating rate equal to the highest of (x) the commercial lending rate of Agent as publicly announced and in effect on such day, (y) the daily federal funds open rate as quoted by ICAP North America, Inc. in effect on such day plus 1/2 of 1%, and (z) the Daily Libor Rate plus 1% with the Daily LIBOR Rate determined by taking the LIBOR rate published in the Wall Street Journal and dividing it by a number equal to 1 minus the reserve percentage on that day as determined by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve), plus 2.75% for Domestic Rate Loans or (b) the sum of the Eurodollar Rate (defined as a fluctuating rate determined by Agent by dividing the quoted LIBOR rate by a number equal to 1 minus the reserve percentage on that day as determined by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve), plus 3.75%. Collateral: All obligations of the Company under the loan agreement are secured by a first priority perfected lien against any and all personal property assets of the Company (other than certain excluded property). Term : All Loans and all other obligations outstanding under the loan agreement shall be payable in full on September 30, 2014, unless otherwise terminated pursuant to the terms of the loan agreement. Table of Contents 40 ENGLOBAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Covenants: The loan agreement requires the Company to comply with various financial, affirmative and negative covenants affecting their businesses and operations, including: The Company is in compliance with all of the covenants of the amended PNC Credit Facility as of the date of this Report. Letter of Credit Facility In July 2011, with the support of Wells Fargo's Global Banking Group, ENGlobal and the Export-Import Bank of the United States (“Ex-Im Bank”) entered into a separate $9.5 million letter of credit facility (the “Ex-Im Bank Facility”) to support the Company's CPC Project. Under the terms of this agreement, the Company could issue letters of credit to CPC for its performance under the CPC Project. The Company was required to collateralize letters of credit outstanding under the Ex-Im Bank Facility with cash or eligible Russian receivables resulting from the CPC Project. On June 17, 2013, these letters of credit were allowed to expire, as the Company implemented an alternative option to modify terms of future retention amounts in lieu of letters of credit. As a result of the expiration of these letters of credit, $6.1 million of restricted cash was released and applied to advances then outstanding under the PNC Credit Facility. The parties have subsequently agreed to an amendment of the service agreement governing the CPC Project with the following terms in the absence of a letter of credit facility or other performance bank guarantee in place: Table of Contents • Maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of (a) not less than 0.80 to 1.00, measured (i) as of October 31, 2013, for the month then most recently ended; (ii) as of November 30, 2013, for the two months then most recently ended; (iii) as of December 31, 2013, for the three months then most recently ended; (iv) as of January 31, 2014, for the four months then most recently ended; (b) not less than 0.95 to 1.00, measured (i) as of February 28, 2014, for the five months then most recently ended (ii) as of March 31, 2014, for the nine months then most recently ended; (iii) as of April 30, 2014, for the seven months then most recently ended; (iv) as of May 31, 2014, for the eight months then most recently ended; (c) not less than 1.00 to 1.00, measured (i) as of June 30, 2014, for the nine months then most recently ended (ii) as of July 31, 2014, for the ten months then most recently ended; (iii) as of August 31, 2014, for the eleven months then most recently ended; and (iv) as of September 30, 2014, for the twelve months then most recently ended. • Maintain at all times Excess Availability of not less than the greater of $1.0 million or 10% of the maximum revolving advance measured monthly as of the last day of the month. • Cause the aggregate amount of cash receipts attributable to the Caspian Contracts to exceed the aggregate amount of all costs and expenses incurred in connection the Borrowers’ performance of its Caspian Project obligations by a minimum of $0.5 million measured twice per month. • The Company will not contract for, purchase or make any expenditure or commitment for capital expenditures in an aggregate amount in excess of $3.5 million. • The retention on all receivables related to the project will increase from 10% to 15% effective September 13, 2013, applied retrospectively on all invoices paid on June 27, 2013. • The release of the retention would be made in two stages as it relates to milestones the project achieves. The first thirty three percent (33%) of the retention will be released after the issuance of a site acceptance test certificate, and client approval for the system and equipment. • The remaining sixty seven percent (67%) of the retention will be released after expiration of the warranty period, signified by the issue of the final acceptance certificate by the client as set forth in the original agreement as previously amended. • The Company will provide quarterly reports on its financial condition. 41 ENGLOBAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 10 - OPERATING LEASES The Company leases equipment and office space under long-term operating lease agreements. The future minimum lease payments on leases (with initial or remaining non-cancelable terms in excess of one year) as of December 28, 2013 are as follows (dollars in thousands): Rent expense for the years ended December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012 was $3.9 million and $4.3 million, respectively. Certain of our lease agreements may include items such as abated lease payments, capital improvement funding, step rent provisions and escalation clauses that affect the lease payment schedule and do not qualify as contingent rentals. These items have been included in the minimum lease payment amount on a straight-line basis over the minimum lease term. Any lease payments that are dependent on a factor related to the future use of the property have been excluded from the minimum lease payment amount and are recognized as incurred. NOTE 11 - EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS ENGlobal sponsors a 401(k) profit sharing plan for its employees. The Company, at the direction of the Board of Directors, may make discretionary contributions. Our employees may elect to make contributions pursuant to a salary reduction agreement upon meeting age and length-of-service requirements. Effective October 21, 2011, the Company made matching contribution equal to 25% of employee contributions up to 6% of employee compensation for all employees. The Company elected to suspend its match to all employees effective December 29, 2012. Prior to the suspension, the Company had made contributions totaling $987,207 for the year ended December 29, 2012. The Company reinstated the matching contributions on January 14, 2014. NOTE 12 - STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS Stock Options - In June 2009, the Company's stockholders approved a new 2009 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Plan”) that provides for the issuance of up to 480,000 shares of common stock. The Equity Plan provides for grants of non-statutory options, incentive stock options, restricted stock awards, performance shares, performance units, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards. Grants to employees will generally vest over a four-year period, one-fourth at December 31 of each year until they are fully vested. Grants to non-employee directors will vest quarterly over a one-year period coinciding with their service term. On April 26, 2012, the Board approved, and the shareholders subsequently approved, an amendment to the Plan to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the Plan by 500,000 from 480,000 to 980,000, in order to enhance the ability of ENGlobal to motivate current employees, to attract employees of outstanding ability and to provide for grants to be made to non-employee directors. On October 20, 2013 the Board approved, and the shareholders subsequently approved, an amendment to the Plan to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the Plan by 850,000 from 980,000 to 1,830,000, in order to enhance the ability of ENGlobal to motivate current employees, to attract employees of outstanding ability and to provide for grants to be made to non-employee directors.

For each series, the exercise price is the weighted average exercise price of the series. Restricted Stock Awards - Restricted stock awards granted to directors are intended to compensate and retain the directors over the one-year service period commencing July 1 of the year of service. These awards will vest in quarterly installments beginning September 30 of the year of service, so long as the grantee continues to serve as a director of the Company. Restricted stock awards granted to employees will vest in four equal annual installments beginning December 31 in the year granted, so long as the grantee remains employed full-time with the Company as of each vesting date. The following is a summary of the Company's restricted stock awards for the years ended December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012: Table of Contents Vested and Exercisable Balance Number of Shares Outstanding Weighted Average Exercise Price Balance at December 31, 2011 770,000 770,000 6.81 Canceled or expired (142,000 ) (142,000 ) 5.13 Balance at December 29, 2012 628,000 628 ,000 7.26 Canceled or expired (78,000 ) (78,000 ) 8.18 Balance at December 28, 2013 550 ,000 550,000 6.37 Exercise Prices * Options Outstanding Average Remaining Contractual Life Options Fully-Vested And Exercisable $ 1.81 40,000 1.5 40,000 $ 2.32 40,000 0.4 40,000 $ 3.75 150,000 2.5 150,000 $ 9.15 150,000 3.4 150,000 $ 10.93 150 ,000 4.5 150 ,000 $ 9.44 20,000 5.2 20,000 550 ,000 550 ,000 Number of restricted shares Weighted- average fair value Unvested restricted shares at December 31, 2011 145,819 $ 2.90 Granted in 2012 301,007 1.00 Vested in 2012 (214,248 ) 1.87 Forfeited in 2012 (65,372 ) 2.84 Unvested restricted shares at December 29, 2012 167,206 0.86 Granted in 2013 — — Vested in 2013 (50,336 ) — Forfeited in 2013 (— ) — Unvested restricted shares at December 28, 2013 116,870 $ — 43 ENGLOBAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The total fair value of the restricted stock that vested in the years ended December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012 was $39,000 and $184,000, respectively. The weighted-average remaining life of restricted stock awards outstanding at December 28, 2013 was 0.86 years. No restricted stock awards were granted in 2013. During 2012, the Company granted restricted stock awards per the following table. Compensation Expense - The Company recognizes stock compensation expense relating to share-based payments in net income using the fair-value measurement method. Under the fair value method, the estimated fair value of awards is charged to expense over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. We estimate the volatility of our stock price by using historical volatility looking back 156 weeks. We have considered using a combination of historical and implied volatility derived from traded options on our stock but do not believe that it would materially impact the Company's estimates of future volatility over the expected life of the options. The expected term of options granted has been derived from the simplified method, due to changes in vesting terms and contractual lives of current options compared to our historical grants. We base the estimate of the risk-free interest rate on the United States Treasury zero-coupon yield curve in effect at the time of grant. We have never paid cash dividends and do not currently intend to pay cash dividends; accordingly, we have assumed a 0% dividend yield. The Company recognized non-cash compensation expense related to its stock compensation plans of $0.2 million and $0.4 million for the fiscal years ended December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012, respectively. As of December 28, 2013, unrecognized compensation expense was approximately $0.1 million. The weighted average period over which total compensation related to stock options and restricted stock awards are expected to be recognized is approximately 1 month. NOTE 13 - REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK The Company is authorized to issue 2,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”). The Board of Directors has the authority to approve the issuance of all or any of these shares of the Preferred Stock in one or more series, to determine the number of shares constituting any series and to determine any voting powers, conversion rights, dividend rights and other designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions and rights relating to such shares without any further action by the stockholders. While there are no current plans to issue the Preferred Stock, it was authorized in order to provide the Company with flexibility to take advantage of contingencies such as favorable acquisition opportunities. NOTE 14 - FEDERAL AND STATE INCOME TAXES The components of income tax expense (benefit) from continuing operations for the years ended December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012 were as follows (dollars in thousands): Table of Contents Date Issued Issued to Number of Shares Market Price Fair Value June 14, 2012 Directors (3) 100,671 $ 1.49 $ 150,000 June 14, 2012 Employee (1) 50,336 $ 1.49 $ 75,000 December 18, 2012 Employee (1) 150,000 $ 0.50 $ 75,000 2013 2012 Current: Federal $ — $ — State 428 193 428 193 Deferred: Federal (299 ) 6,808 State 299 — — 6,808 Total tax provision $ 428 $ 7,001 44 ENGLOBAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The components of the deferred tax asset (liability) consisted of the following at December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012 (dollars in thousands): The Company had a federal net operating loss carry-forward at December 28, 2013 of approximately $17.8 million which is available for carry forward through 2032. The Company also has a foreign net operating loss carry-forward at December 28, 2013 of approximately $0.5 million. This loss is available for utilization through 2017; however, application of the net operating loss is restricted to the income of ENGlobal Canada, ULC. ASC Topic 825, “Income Taxes” requires all available evidence, both positive and negative, be considered to determine whether, based on the weight of that evidence, a valuation allowance is needed. Based upon the Company's recent performance, management determined the realization of deferred tax assets is uncertain as the Company is unable to consider tax planning strategies or projections of future taxable income in its evaluation of the realizability of its deferred tax assets as of December 28, 2013. Under these circumstances, deferred tax assets may only be realized through future reversals of taxable temporary differences and carryback of net operating losses to available carryback periods. We have performed such an analysis and a valuation allowance of approximately $11.1 million has been provided against deferred tax assets as of December 28, 2013. The following is a reconciliation of expected tax expense to actual expense from continuing operations for the years ended December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012 (dollars in thousands): As a result of the valuation allowance recorded against our deferred tax assets as of September 29, 2012, the effective income tax rate for the year ended December 29, 2012 was not meaningful.

We recognize interest related to uncertain tax positions in interest expense and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in governmental penalties. For the years ended December 28, 2013 and December 29 2012, the Company did not recognize any interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions. The Company is currently not the subject of any examination by the Internal Revenue Service, and the open years subject to audit are currently tax years 2010-2013. In most states where the Company conducts business, the Company is subject to examination for the preceding three to six years.

Segment information for the years ended December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012 is as follows (dollars in thousands): Table of Contents December 28, 2013: EPCM Automation Corporate Total Net sales $ 123,740 $ 45,223 $ — $ 168,963 Operating profit (loss) 5,300 5,854 (11,932 ) (778 ) Depreciation and amortization 526 1,109 218 1,853 Tangible assets 11,511 20,053 10,369 41,933 Goodwill 720 2,086 — 2,806 Other intangible assets 80 890 92 1,062 Total assets 12,311 23,029 10,461 45,801 Capital expenditures — — — — December 29, 2012: EPCM Automation Corporate Total Net sales $ 168,930 $ 58,986 $ — $ 227,916 Operating profit (loss) (10,921 ) 1,989 (12,155 ) (21,087 ) Depreciation and amortization 634 1,285 — 1,919 Tangible assets 34,345 21,693 17,934 74,029 Goodwill 720 2,086 — 2,806 Other intangible assets 186 1,666 — 1,852 Total assets 35,251 25,445 17,934 78,687 Capital expenditures 425 80 208 713 46 ENGLOBAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 16 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Employment Agreements The Company has employment agreements with certain of its executive officers and certain other officers, the terms of which expire on or before May 2014, with the severance terms ranging from six to twelve months. Such agreements provide for minimum salary levels. If employment is terminated for any reason other than 1) termination for cause, 2) voluntary resignation or 3) the employee's death, the Company is obligated to provide a severance benefit equal to six months of the employee's salary, and, at its option, an additional six months at 50% of the employee's salary in exchange for an extension of a non-competition agreement. Some of these agreements are renewable for an additional one-year term at the Company's option. No liability is recorded for the Company's obligations under employment agreements as the amounts that will ultimately be paid cannot be reasonably estimated, if any. Litigation From time to time, ENGlobal or one or more of its subsidiaries is involved in various legal proceedings or is subject to claims that arise in the ordinary course of business alleging, among other things, claims of breach of contract or negligence in connection with the performance or delivery of goods and/or services. The outcome of any such claims or proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty. In June 2008, ENGlobal filed an action in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana; Case Number 08-3601, against South Louisiana Ethanol LLC (“SLE”) entitled ENGlobal Engineering, Inc. and ENGlobal Construction Resources, Inc. vs. South Louisiana Ethanol, LLC . The lawsuit seeks to enforce collection of $15.8 million owed to ENGlobal and its affiliates for services performed on an ethanol plant in Louisiana. In August 2009, SLE filed for Chapter 11 protection in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana, Case Number 09-12676. Pursuant to the bankruptcy, the plant assets were sold for $6.8 million. On December 6, 2011, the court issued an order allocating proceeds from the sale and authorizing their distribution. Of the total amount, $1,054,418 was allocated to ENGlobal. Of that amount, $845,529 is still being held by the court pending the outcome of continuing litigation regarding the claims of one subcontractor. As of the date of this Report, the amount is still being held by the court. Insurance The Company carries a broad range of insurance coverage, including general and business automobile liability, commercial property, professional errors and omissions, workers' compensation insurance, directors' and officers' liability insurance and a general umbrella policy. The Company is not aware of any claims in excess of insurance recoveries. ENGlobal is partially self-funded for health insurance claims. Provisions for expected future payments are accrued based on the Company's experience. Specific stop loss levels provide protection for the Company with $200,000 per occurrence. The self-insurance liability, which is included in the Accrued Compensation and Benefits line of the balance sheet, was $1.1 million as of December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012, respectively.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE None. ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES (a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures of a registrant designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the registrant in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is properly recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's (“SEC”) rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include processes to accumulate and evaluate relevant information and communicate such information to a registrant's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosures. We evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 28, 2013, as required by Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. Based on the evaluation described above, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of December 28, 2013, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective insofar as they are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms. Our disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. (b) Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as that term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements. Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design safeguards into the process to reduce, although not eliminate, this risk. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or because the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Table of Contents 48 In order to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 28, 2013, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, our management conducted an assessment, including testing, based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the “COSO Framework”). A material weakness is a control deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. In assessing the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, management did not identify a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as of December 28, 2013. We have concluded that our internal control over financial reporting at December 28, 2013, was effective. (c) No Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm This Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to an exemption for smaller reporting companies under Section 989G of the Dodd-Frank Act. We qualify for the Dodd-Frank Act exemption from the independent auditor attestation requirement under Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for smaller reporting companies. (d) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting No changes in our internal controls over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended December 28, 2013, that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
