Exhibit 99

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

MATRIX SERVICE REDUCES ANNUAL GUIDANCE FOR FISCAL 2010 AND SETS DATE TO

DISCUSS RESULTS FOR THE THIRD QUARTER

TULSA, OK – April 23, 2010 – Matrix Service Co. (NASDAQ: MTRX) announced it has reduced earnings expectations for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2010 to a range of $0.55 to $0.65 per fully diluted share (1). This guidance excludes the impact of non-routine charges related to acquired claim receivables and other legal matters. The Company previously announced guidance toward the lower end of the range of $0.80 to $1.10 per fully diluted share, excluding non-routine charges.

Michael J. Bradley, president and chief executive officer of Matrix Service Company stated, “Earnings performance during the first half of fiscal 2010 was in line with our expectations, and we projected business activity to pick-up in the second half of the fiscal year. However, our customers continued to defer capital projects and we are experiencing a lower volume of recurring repair and maintenance work. As a result, we will not achieve the earnings guidance provided at the beginning of the fiscal year. We are confident in our long-term strategy and that the addition of key personnel and improvements in our cost structure position the Company to grow as our markets improve.”

The Company’s operating results for the third quarter were also negatively impacted by approximately $4 million of non-routine charges related to collection activities on claim receivables assumed in a previous acquisition and other legal matters. As a result of market conditions and the non-routine charges, Matrix Service expects operating results for the third quarter of fiscal 2010 to be below our previous expectations.

In response to the challenging economic environment, the Company previously reduced annual administrative and overhead costs by $6 million. During the third quarter, the Company executed an additional $6 million of cost reductions that will reduce both SG&A and construction overhead costs beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010.

Mr. Bradley added, “We will continue to actively manage our cost structure, with a long-term view of our business. However, we will maintain the appropriate staffing levels to execute projects we expect to materialize and pursue new awards, perform projects safely and effectively, without limiting our ability to achieve our growth strategy. Our strong financial position and liquidity will allow the Company to move forward with our strategic plans and take advantage of future growth opportunities.”
