 URS CORPORATION REPORTS FISCAL 2007
YEAR-END RESULTS

Revenues Increase 27% from 2006; EPS Up 7% for Year,
18% Higher Excluding Effects of Acquisition


Company Begins 2008 with Record $18.7 Billion Backlog

 

SAN FRANCISCO, CAFebruary 26, 2008 – URS Corporation (NYSE: URS) today reported its financial results for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2007.  Revenues increased 27% to $5.38 billion from $4.22 billion in fiscal 2006.  Net income for fiscal 2007 was $132.2 million, a 17% increase from $113.0 million in fiscal 2006.  Earnings per share (EPS) for fiscal 2007 was $2.35, fully diluted, a 7% increase from fiscal 2006 EPS of $2.19.
 
The Company’s fiscal 2007 results include six weeks of operations of the former Washington Group International, Inc., which URS acquired on November 15, 2007.  Excluding the results of the Washington Division, as well as costs associated with the acquisition, URS’ EPS for the year would have been $2.58, an 18% increase from fiscal 2006.  A reconciliation of EPS, excluding the Washington Division results and the costs associated with the acquisition, to GAAP EPS is attached to this release and is available on the investor relations page of URS’ website at www.urscorp.com.
 
As of December 28, 2007, the Company’s backlog was $18.71 billion, compared to $4.64 billion as of December 29, 2006.  The increase in backlog resulted from the acquisition of Washington Group and new contract awards during the year.
 
Commenting on the Company’s financial results, Martin M. Koffel, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated: “URS performed very well in 2007.  Our private sector and state and local government businesses were particularly robust as a result of favorable trends in the power market and strong infrastructure spending.  We generated $311.9 million in cash from operations. We repaid $239 million in bank debt during the year, including $125 million of the debt related to the Washington Group acquisition.”

Mr. Koffel continued: “Our outlook for the Company reflects the strength of the power business, which was bolstered by our acquisition of the Washington Group, and the positive trends in our federal government business, which includes our work for the U.S. Departments of Defense and Energy.  At the same time, we expect a near term slowdown in public infrastructure spending as a result of the current economic downturn and the increasing budget challenges facing state and local governments.”
 
“While the Washington Group acquisition has further diversified our business mix and enhanced our resiliency to downturns in individual markets, it is prudent to assume that, as a leading infrastructure firm, our 2008 results will be tempered by the weakness in this market.  Longer term, we believe that the fundamentals for the infrastructure market remain positive, given the critical need for investment in the country’s highways and bridges, transit systems, public buildings, and water and wastewater facilities.”
          
    Weighted-average shares outstanding for purposes of calculating diluted EPS were 56.3 million in fiscal 2007, compared with 51.7 million in fiscal 2006.  The increase in weighted-average shares outstanding is the result of new shares issued in connection with Company’s acquisition of the Washington Group, as well as additional shares issued pursuant to the Company’s 1999 Equity Incentive Plan and Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

Fourth Quarter 2007 Results
 
For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company reported revenues of $1.74 billion, net income of $26.4 million, and diluted EPS of $0.39.  Excluding the results of the Washington Division and the costs associated with the acquisition, URS’ fourth quarter EPS would have been $0.56.  A reconciliation of EPS, excluding the Washington Division results and the costs associated with the acquisition, to GAAP EPS is attached to this release and is available on the investor relations page of URS’ website at www.urscorp.com. For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company reported revenues of $1.08 billion, net income of $26.3 million, and diluted EPS of $0.51.
 
Weighted-average shares outstanding for purposes of calculating diluted EPS were 67.5 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007, compared with 52.0 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006.

Business Segment Results
 
URS Division.  For fiscal 2007, the URS Division reported revenues of $3.4 billion and operating income of $221.5 million, compared to revenues of $2.8 billion and operating income of $191.7 million for fiscal 2006.
 
For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007, the URS Division reported revenues of $869.6 million and operating income of $43.0 million, compared to revenues of $739.7 million and operating income of $48.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2006.
 
EG&G Division.  For fiscal 2007, the EG&G Division reported revenues of $1.5 billion and operating income of $81.9 million, compared to revenues of $1.4 billion and operating income of $71.4 million for fiscal 2006.
 
For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007, the EG&G Division reported revenues of $423.8 million and operating income of $23.1 million, compared to revenues of $342.9 million and operating income of $14.0 million for the corresponding period in 2006.
 
Washington Division.  On November 15, 2007, Washington Group International, Inc. was acquired by URS and began operations as the Washington Division of URS Corporation.  Between November 16 and December 28, 2007, the Washington Division reported revenues of $448.4 million and operating income of $16.9 million.

Summary of New Segment Reporting Structure
 
Following the acquisition of the Washington Group, URS re-aligned certain businesses among its three operating segments.  These changes were effective for fiscal year 2008. The following is a description of the three operating segments including these changes.
 
The URS Division performs program management, planning, design and engineering, and construction management services for federal agencies, state and local government agencies, and private sector companies.  In addition to serving federal clients such as the U.S. Departments of Defense and Homeland Security, the General Services Administration, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the USPS, the URS Division provides services on a wide range of highway, bridge, rail, water and wastewater and other infrastructure assignments, facilities and environmental remediation projects.
 
The EG&G Division provides program management, systems engineering and technical assistance, operations and maintenance, and construction services to the federal government. EG&G’s clients include the U.S. Departments of Defense, State and Homeland Security, the Treasury Department, NASA and classified agencies.

The Washington Division provides program management, planning, design and engineering, construction, operations and maintenance, and decommissioning and closure services.  It serves customers in the power, energy, mining and manufacturing industries, as well as government agencies, including the U.S. Department of Energy. The Washington Division also includes URS’ Advatech joint venture with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, which provides emissions control services for the power industry.

Fiscal 2008 Earnings Outlook
 
URS expects its fiscal 2008 revenues to be approximately $9.8 billion.  The Company expects that GAAP net income will be between $187 and $197 million and GAAP EPS will be in the range of $2.24 to $2.36 for fiscal 2008.
 
In its preliminary allocation of the costs of acquiring the Washington Group, the Company established intangible assets, for which amortization began as of the purchase date. As a result, during fiscal 2008, URS will record a non-cash charge for amortization of the intangible assets. URS expects that fiscal 2008 net income, exclusive of the amortization of intangible assets, will be between $218 and $228 million, or between $2.61 and $2.73 per share on a fully diluted basis. A table reconciling net income and EPS excluding the charge for amortization of purchased intangibles to GAAP net income and earnings per share is attached to this release and is available on the investor relations section of the Company’s website at: www.urscorp.com.
 
The Company expects its effective tax rate in 2008 will be approximately 41.5%, compared to 41.4% in 2007.  The Company’s fully diluted weighted average shares outstanding for 2008 are expected to be approximately 83.5 million, compared with 56.3 million in 2007. Finally, we expect interest expense in 2008 to be approximately $88 million.

Webcast Information
 
URS will host a dial-in conference call on Wednesday, February 27, 2008 at 11:00 a.m. (EST) to discuss its fourth quarter and year-end fiscal 2007 results.  A live webcast of this call will be available on the investor relations portion of URS’ website at www.urscorp.com.

RECONCILIATION SCHEDULE OF THE IMPACT OF THE ACQUISITION OF WASHINGTON GROUP INTERNATIONAL, INC.

In our earnings release for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2007, we presented earnings per share (“EPS”) excluding the impact of the Washington Group International, Inc. (“WGI”) acquisition. EPS excluding the impact of the WGI acquisition are not computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).  We presented the amount to demonstrate the impact of the WGI acquisition on our fiscal year 2007 results. These non-GAAP measures, which provide comparability to prior year amounts, are used by investors to evaluate and measure the underlying performance of our business.  EPS excluding the impact of WGI acquisition should not be used as a substitute for EPS prepared in conformity with GAAP, or as a GAAP measure of profitability.
 
Below are reconciliations of EPS excluding the impact of the WGI acquisition to GAAP EPS for the three months and fiscal year ended December 28, 2007.

RECONCILIATION SCHEDULE OF THE IMPACT OF THE AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS RELATED TO THE WASHINGTON GROUP INTERNATIONAL, INC. ACQUISITION

In our earnings release for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2007, we also presented a range of 2008 net income and EPS excluding the impact of the amortization of intangible assets related to the WGI acquisition.  Net income and EPS guidance excluding the impact of the amortization of these intangible assets are not computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).  We presented these amounts to demonstrate the impact of the amortization of these intangible assets related to the WGI acquisition on our projected fiscal year 2008 results.  These non-GAAP measures may be useful to investors seeking to compare the expected performance of our underlying business with the actual performance of our business in prior periods when no amortization of these intangible assets was required. Net income and EPS excluding the impact of the amortization of intangible assets related to the WGI acquisition should not be used as a substitute for net income and EPS prepared in conformity with GAAP, or as a GAAP measure of profitability or cash flow.
 
Below is the reconciliation of net income and EPS, before the impact of the amortization of intangible assets related to the WGI acquisition, to the projected GAAP net income and EPS for fiscal year 2008.
