Commenting on the Company’s financial results and outlook, Martin M. Koffel, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated:  “URS had a solid quarter operationally, with both operating income and net income meeting our expectations. Although our reported results reflect a higher effective tax rate, we expect that it will be lower over the remainder of the year. The decrease in year over year revenues is due in large part to the wind-down of our successful chemical demilitarization contracts.”

Koffel continued: “Our oil and gas business performed in line with our expectations as it continued to recover from challenges last year. We are pleased with the growth in our oil and gas backlog and near-term prospects, which reflects developing momentum in this business.  We also achieved strong growth in our power business this quarter, and continue to see robust opportunities in the infrastructure and industrial sectors, and an improved contracting environment in our federal business.”

“Based on recent and upcoming project starts, our book of business and a robust pipeline of new bidding opportunities, we continue to expect our financial performance to be much stronger in the second half of the year. Accordingly, we expect to achieve the financial guidance we have given for 2014 and to generate substantial free cash flow during the remainder of the year.”

During the quarter, the Company repurchased 5.7 million shares amounting to $266 million, and paid $15 million in dividends.

First Quarter 2014 Results

Revenues for first quarter were $2.5 billion, compared with $2.8 billion in the first quarter of fiscal 2013.  Operating income for the quarter was $87 million, compared with $153 million reported in the first quarter of fiscal 2013.  Revenues and operating income in the first quarter of 2014 derived from our chemical demilitarization program decreased $163 million and $67 million, respectively, from the first quarter of 2013.

ii

The Company’s effective income tax rates for the three months ended April 4, 2014 increased to 39.3% from 32.7% for the three months ended March 29, 2013.  The higher rate was attributable to incurred losses in some international entities that were non-deductible for income tax purposes.  A portion of these losses were discrete to the first quarter, and we do not expect them to repeat in the remainder of the year.  Therefore, we expect the full-year tax rate to decline to approximately 33%.

Net Income was $27 million, compared with $72 million reported in the same quarter of fiscal 2013.  GAAP EPS for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 were $0.37, compared with $0.96 in the first quarter of fiscal 2013.  Net Income and GAAP EPS generated by our chemical demilitarization contracts decreased by approximately $40 million, or $0.54 per share, from the first quarter of 2013 to the first quarter of 2014.

Cash EPS for the quarter were $0.60, compared with Cash EPS of $1.22 for the first quarter of fiscal 2013.  EBITDA was $131 million for the quarter, compared to $203 million last year.

The Company’s backlog as of April 4, 2014 was $11.2 billion, compared to $11.3 billion on January 3, 2014, the last day of the Company’s 2013 fiscal year.  URS ended the quarter with a book of business of $23.0 billion, compared to $22.8 billion as of January 3, 2014.

Business Segment Results

In addition to providing consolidated financial results, URS reports separate financial information for its four segments: Infrastructure & Environment, Federal Services, Energy & Construction, and Oil & Gas.  Effective with the beginning of fiscal year 2014, the Company’s Global Management and Operations Services Group, which was a component of its Energy & Construction Division in fiscal year 2013, is operated and managed by its Federal Services Division.  The Company also realigned a portion of its facility construction, process engineering, and operations and maintenance services provided to the oil and gas industry among its Oil & Gas, Infrastructure & Environment, and Energy & Construction Divisions.

The Company revised and conformed the prior year segment amounts to its current year presentation to reflect the realignment of its operations among its divisions.

Infrastructure & Environment.  For the first quarter of fiscal 2014, the Infrastructure & Environment segment reported revenues of $850 million and operating income of $36 million, compared to revenues of $898 million and operating income of $40 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013.

iii

Federal Services.  For the first quarter of fiscal 2014, the Federal Services segment reported revenues of $649 million and operating income of $57 million, compared to revenues of $907 million and an operating income of $115 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013.  For the first quarter of 2014, revenues from our chemical demilitarization contracts totaled $89 million and operating income was $23 million.  This compares with $252 million in revenues and $90 million in operating income in the first quarter of last year.

For 2014, we expect chemical demilitarization contracts to contribute between $280 million and $290 million in revenues and between $80 million and $90 million in operating income.  This compares to $648 million in revenues and $213 million in operating income in 2013.

Energy & Construction.  For the first quarter of fiscal 2014, the Energy & Construction segment reported revenues of $544 million and operating income of $5 million, compared to revenues of $538 million and an operating income of $12 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013.

Oil & Gas.  For the first quarter of fiscal 2014, the Oil & Gas segment reported revenues of $514 million and operating income of $11 million including $10 million in intangible amortization, compared to revenues of $508 million and an operating income of $9 million including $13 million in intangible amortization for the first quarter of fiscal 2013.

Quarterly Dividend

On May 9, 2014, the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.22 per common share.  The dividend will be paid on July 11, 2014 to stockholders of record as of June 20, 2014.  Future declarations of quarterly dividends are subject to the approval of URS’ Board of Directors.

Valuation Creation Committee of the Board of Directors

The Company stated that the Value Creation Committee of the Board of Directors is continuing to evaluate alternatives to enhance stockholder value. The Committee, the full Board, and advisors are coordinating closely. There is no timetable for the completion of the Committee’s work or for the potential implementation of its recommendations; however, the Committee intends to work expeditiously.
