Tutor Perini Reports Second Quarter 2018 Results

08/07/2018
  • Diluted EPS of $0.49, with strong operating margins in the Civil and Building segments
  • New awards of $1.3 billion, reflecting a book-to-burn ratio of 1.2
  • Backlog up 15% year-over-year to a new record high of $8.7 billion
  • Double-digit year-over-year backlog growth across all three segments

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Tutor Perini Corporation (NYSE: TPC), a leading civil, building and specialty construction company, today reported results for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Revenue for the second quarter of 2018 was $1.1 billion compared to $1.2 billion for the second quarter of last year. The decrease was driven by certain Building segment projects that are now complete and the timing of project execution activities on various Civil segment projects in New York and California. Income from construction operations for the second quarter of 2018 was $54.8 million, up 61% compared to $34.0 million for the same quarter of last year. The increase was due to favorable operating margin performance in the Civil and Building segments and the absence of prior-year unfavorable adjustments in the Specialty Contractors segment. Net income attributable to the Company for the second quarter of 2018 was $24.9 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, compared to $30.1 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, for the same quarter of 2017. The results for the prior-year period included a $37.0 million legal settlement that was recorded in other income, which contributed $21.9 million of net income and $0.43 of the reported $0.59 per diluted share.

Backlog as of June 30, 2018 was $8.7 billion, a new record high and up 15% compared to $7.6 billion as of June 30, 2017. New awards and adjustments to contracts in process totaled $1.3 billion in the second quarter of 2018. Significant new awards included the $410 million Purple Line Extension Section 3 Tunnels project in California, the $172 million Baruch Houses mechanical project in New York and the $93 million Broadway Bridge Rehabilitation project in New York.

“Earnings for the second quarter exceeded our expectations largely due to better-than-anticipated margins in our Civil and Building segments,” commented Ronald Tutor, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We also achieved our fourth consecutive quarter of double-digit year-over-year backlog growth, reflecting our continued success in bidding and winning new projects. We believe that our results for the second half of 2018 will continue to improve due to expected increased activity on some of our larger projects.”

Outlook and Guidance

Based on the Company’s results to date and its mid-year forecast, the Company is narrowing its guidance for 2018, with diluted earnings per share (EPS) now expected in the range of $1.90 to $2.05.
