FLUOR REPORTS SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
· EARNINGS PER SHARE OF $0.98, UP FROM $0.95 PER SHARE A YEAR AGO
· NEW AWARDS OF $7.2 BILLION; ENDING BACKLOG OF $37 BILLION
IRVING, TEXAS — August 1, 2013 — Fluor Corporation (NYSE: FLR) today announced financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2013. Net earnings attributable to Fluor for the second quarter were $161 million, or $0.98 per diluted share, compared with $161 million, or $0.95 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2012. Consolidated segment profit for the quarter was $288 million and revenue was $7.2 billion, comparable with results in the second quarter of 2012. Current quarter segment profit reflects strong growth in the Oil & Gas segment, which was largely offset by a decline in the Government segment due primarily to the impact of a charge of $17 million, or approximately $0.07 per share, relating to the resolution of the company’s final outstanding embassy claim. Revenue growth in the Oil & Gas and Power segments was offset by lower revenue in Industrial & Infrastructure and Government.
New awards for the second quarter were substantial at $7.2 billion, including $3.6 billion in Industrial & Infrastructure and $3.3 billion in Oil & Gas. Consolidated backlog at the end of the quarter was $37.0 billion, which compares with $37.5 billion at the end of last quarter.
“I am increasingly optimistic about the Company’s prospects, particularly with the strength of future opportunities in oil and gas,” said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer David Seaton. “We continue to pursue and receive a number of important front-end engineering and design awards, which we expect will translate into significant EPC awards over the next few years.”
Corporate G&A expense for the second quarter of 2013 was $32 million, which compares with $31 million in the second quarter of 2012. Fluor’s financial condition remains strong, with cash plus current and noncurrent marketable securities totaling $2.6 billion at the end of the second quarter.
Outlook
While growth opportunities in Oil & Gas remain robust, the unexpected charge relating to the final embassy claim and the slowdown in mining and metals have put pressure on the upper end of the EPS guidance range for 2013. As a result, the Company is tightening the EPS guidance range for 2013 to $3.85 to $4.20 per diluted share, which compares to the previous range of $3.85 to $4.35.
Business Segments
Fluor’s Oil & Gas business reported segment profit of $107 million, which is a 27 percent increase over the second quarter of 2012. Revenue grew 24 percent to $2.9 billion, which compares with $2.3 billion last year. Strong financial results in the second quarter reflect growing contributions from upstream and petrochemical projects. New awards in the quarter totaled
$3.3 billion, including significant new scope on a large upstream project in Russia and a FEED award for Sasol’s ethane cracker in Louisiana. Backlog at the end of the second quarter was $18.7 billion, which compares with $19.5 billion a year ago.
The Industrial & Infrastructure group reported segment profit of $129 million, which compares with $131 million in the second quarter of 2012. Revenue for the second quarter was $3.1 billion, which declined from $3.6 billion a year ago due to lower contributions from the mining and metals business line. Segment profit results reflect growth in the industrial services and infrastructure business lines, which was offset by a decline in mining and metals. Segment new awards were $3.6 billion in the second quarter, including $2.9 billion for the expansion of the Cerro Verde copper project in Peru for Freeport-McMoRan. Backlog at the end of the quarter was $16.2 billion, down from $21.4 billion a year ago, primarily due to lower mining and metals awards over the past year.
The Government group reported segment profit of $14 million, compared with $40 million in the second quarter of 2012. Segment profit results for the quarter reflect lower LOGCAP IV task order volume and the impact of a $17 million charge relating to a court ruling on claims associated with the embassy project in Haiti. With the resolution of this issue, there are no further embassy claims pending. Revenue for the quarter declined 23 percent from a year ago to $675 million, mainly due to lower LOGCAP IV task order volume. New awards totaled $256 million in the second quarter, compared with $769 million a year ago, primarily driven by the timing and volume of LOGCAP IV task orders. Backlog at the end of the quarter was $531 million, compared with $505 million a year ago.
Segment profit for Global Services was $28 million in the second quarter, which compares with $38 million a year ago, on relatively flat revenue of $154 million. The decline in segment profit from a year ago was primarily due to reduced contributions from the equipment business line.
Fluor’s Power group reported segment profit of $11 million, which includes expenses of $13 million for the research and development expenses associated with the company’s investment in NuScale. This compares with a segment loss of $7 million a year ago, which included $15 million of NuScale expenses. Revenue for the quarter increased substantially to $423 million, compared with $206 million a year ago, due to progress on gas-fired and solar projects. New awards in the second quarter were $59 million, and segment backlog was $1.6 billion which compares with $1.7 billion in the second quarter of 2012.
Results for the Six Months
Net earnings attributable to Fluor for the six months ended June 30, 2013 were $328 million, or $2.00 per diluted share. This compares with $316 million, or $1.86 per diluted share, for the first six months of 2012. Revenue rose 7 percent to $14.4 billion, compared with $13.4 billion in the first half of last year.
Second Quarter Conference Call
Fluor will host a conference call at 9:00 a.m. Eastern time on Thursday, August 1, which will be webcast live on the Internet and can be accessed by logging onto http://investor.fluor.com.
