Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. Reports Earnings for Fiscal 2011
PASADENA, CALIF Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. (NYSE:JEC) announced today its financial results for the fiscal year and fourth quarter ended September 30, 2011.
Fiscal 2011 and Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2011 Highlights:
| Net earnings for fiscal 2011 of $331.0 million; |
| Diluted EPS for fiscal 2011 of $2.60; |
| Net earnings for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 of $94.3 million; |
| Diluted EPS for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 of $0.74; and, |
| Backlog of $14.3 billion. |
Jacobs reported today net earnings of $331.0 million, or $2.60 per diluted share, on revenues of $10.4 billion for its fiscal year ended September 30, 2011. These results compare to net earnings of $246.0 million, or $1.96 per diluted share, on revenues of $9.9 billion for fiscal 2010. Excluding the effects of the SIVOM litigation discussed below, net earnings and earnings per diluted share for fiscal 2010 were $306.3 million and $2.44, respectively.
For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, Jacobs reported net earnings of $94.3 million, or $0.74 per diluted share, on revenues of $2.7 billion. This compares to net earnings of $77.0 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, on revenues of $2.3 billion for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company recorded a $93.3 million pre-tax charge to earnings relating to an unfavorable court judgment it received pertaining to a waste incineration project in France for the SIVOM de Mulhousienne (SIVOM). Net of the effects on the Companys incentive bonus plan and income taxes, the judgment resulted in a net, after-tax charge to earnings in fiscal 2010 of $60.3 million, or $0.48 per diluted share.
Jacobs also announced backlog totaling $14.3 billion at September 30, 2011, including a technical professional services component of $9.1 billion. This compares to total backlog and technical professional services backlog of $13.2 billion and $7.6 billion, respectively, at October 1, 2010.
Commenting on the results for the year, Jacobs President and CEO Craig L. Martin stated, Fiscal 2011 was a nice improvement over fiscal 2010. Excluding the effects of the SIVOM matter, earnings grew 8% and EPS grew 7%. More importantly, our prospects for Fiscal 2012 are continuing to improve. While much depends on economic conditions and our sales success, we have a great opportunity to return to our traditional strong double digit growth.
Commenting on the Companys earnings outlook for fiscal 2012, Jacobs Chief Financial Officer John W. Prosser, Jr. stated, With a solid backlog and improving prospects as we finish 2011, we are initiating guidance for fiscal 2012 earnings per share within a range of $2.80 to $3.20.
Jacobs is hosting a conference call at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Tuesday, November 15, 2011, which they are webcasting live on the Internet at www.jacobs.com.
Jacobs is one of the worlds largest and most diverse providers of technical, professional, and construction services.
