EMCOR Group, Inc. By: /s/ Frank T. MacInnis ----------------------------- Frank T. MacInnis Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer Dated: February 23, 2006 EMCOR GROUP, INC. REPORTS 2005 FOURTH QUARTER RESULTS - Fourth quarter income from continuing operations increases 89.5% - - Fourth quarter diluted EPS of $0.61 from continuing operations - NORWALK, CONNECTICUT, February 23, 2006 - EMCOR Group, Inc. (NYSE: EME) today reported results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2005. The Company's financial results for the fourth quarter and full year periods have been adjusted to reflect its 2-for-1 stock split, effective February 10, 2006. Fourth quarter 2005 income from continuing operations was $19.5 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, an increase of 89.5% when compared to income from continuing operations of $10.3 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, in the 2004 fourth quarter. Revenues in the 2005 fourth quarter rose 1.2% to $1.24 billion from $1.22 billion in the same quarter of the preceding year. For the fourth quarter of 2005, operating income was $31.2 million compared to operating income of $22.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2004, which 2004 fourth quarter included restructuring expenses of $2.3 million. Excluding the impact of those 2004 expenses, 2005 fourth quarter operating income increased 23.9%. Operating margin improved to 2.5% of revenues in the 2005 fourth quarter, compared to 1.9% for the fourth quarter of 2004, reflecting improved market conditions and actions the Company has taken to control costs and shift its total backlog mix to a higher percentage of private sector commercial contracts. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $125.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2005, compared to $103.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2004, due to increased incentive compensation expense as a result of improved profitability. At December 31, 2005, contract backlog was $2.76 billion, approximately even with backlog levels at both December 31, 2004 and September 30, 2005. Backlog levels have been managed in keeping with the Company's strategy throughout 2005 to reduce its exposure to selected public sector construction projects and to conserve capacity for the more lucrative private sector market. Private sector commercial backlog represented 35% of total backlog at December 31, 2005, compared to 28% of total backlog at December 31, 2004. EMCOR Announces 2005 Fourth Quarter Results Page 2 For the year ended December 31, 2005, income from continuing operations increased 84.2% to $61.3 million, or $1.93 per diluted share, versus $33.3 million, or $1.07 per diluted share for 2004. Net income for 2005 (which included a loss from discontinued operations of $1.3 million, or $0.04 per diluted share) was $60.0 million, or $1.89 per diluted share, an increase of 80.8% from net income of $33.2 million, or $1.07 per diluted share (which included a loss from discontinued operations of $0.08 million, or $0.00 per diluted share), in 2004. For 2005, revenues totaled $4.71 billion, roughly equal to revenues of $4.72 billion in the prior year. Operating income for 2005 rose 92.0% to $81.1 million from $42.3 million in 2004. As previously announced, the Company's results for 2005 included a net $17.5 million income tax benefit resulting from income tax reserve adjustments. Results for 2004 included restructuring expenses of approximately $8.3 million, a $2.8 million gain on the sale of assets, a $1.8 million gain on the sale of an equity investment, and a net income tax benefit of approximately $15.5 million resulting from income tax reserve adjustments. Excluding the items in the two immediately preceding paragraphs, which exclusions the Company believes better reflect year-to-year comparability, earnings per diluted share for 2005 would have been $1.37 versus $0.69 per diluted share in 2004, a 98.6% increase. Frank T. MacInnis, Chairman and CEO of EMCOR Group, commented, "We are very pleased with our performance in the fourth quarter of 2005, which capped an excellent year for EMCOR Group both operationally and financially. Our results are the culmination of the successful execution of our strategy to realign resources so as to focus on our core operational areas, to exercise discipline in our project bidding and to optimize our cost structure. At the same time, we committed to reduce our exposure to certain public sector projects in order to preserve available capacity for our private sector client base. While keeping revenues and backlog flat compared to 2004, our efforts, combined with an ongoing recovery within the private sector, allowed us to expand our margins and generate significant improvements in profitability." Mr. MacInnis continued, "Our 2005 results reflect improved contributions from the majority of our operations. We are particularly encouraged by the reliable strength of our electrical construction businesses, the ongoing recovery of our mechanical construction operations and our U.K. subsidiary, and the growth and performance of our facilities services operations, which benefited from increased demand for smaller, higher margin, discretionary projects and continued to grow its service client roster. The performance of our facilities services operations reinforces our commitment to this segment of our business, and we anticipate continuing growth opportunities in both our mobile and site-based service businesses as the trend towards outsourcing and energy efficiency continues." EMCOR Announces 2005 Fourth Quarter Results Page 3 Mr. MacInnis concluded, "EMCOR Group enters 2006 poised for future growth. Our successful operational execution has placed us in an excellent position to leverage the continuing improvements we see in private sector demand, which we expect will result in revenue and margin growth. Our strong backlog of private and certain public sector work is better balanced than in recent years, and we expect this trend to continue. In addition, we completed the year with a strong and liquid balance sheet, and we intend to leverage our strong financial position to pursue growth opportunities. Based on current market conditions, we expect to generate revenues of between $4.9 billion and $5.1 billion in 2006, resulting in diluted earnings per share for the year of between $1.54 and $1.90. This assumes $0.06 per diluted share in expenses related to the Company's adoption of FAS 123R (Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation)."
