ITEM 1. BUSINESS
- ------------------
General
- -------
Perini Corporation and its subsidiaries (the "Company" unless the
context indicates otherwise) is engaged in the construction business. The
Company was incorporated in 1918 as a successor to businesses which had been
engaged in providing construction services since 1894. The Company currently
provides general contracting, construction management and design-build services
to private clients and public agencies throughout the United States and selected
overseas locations. The Company's construction business involves two basic
segments: building and civil.
The Company was also engaged in the real estate development business
which was conducted by Perini Land & Development Company, a wholly-owned
subsidiary. As discussed in Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements, effective June 30, 1999 the Company adopted a plan to withdraw
completely from the real estate development business and to wind down the
operations of the Company's real estate development subsidiary.
Because the Company's results consist, in part, of a limited number of
large transactions, results in any given fiscal quarter can vary depending on
the timing of transactions and the profitability of the projects being reported.
As a consequence, quarterly results may reflect such variations.
Information on lines of business and foreign business is included under
the following captions of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1999.

Construction
- ------------
The general building and civil contracting services provided by the
Company consist of planning and scheduling the manpower, equipment, materials
and subcontractors required for the timely completion of a project in accordance
with the terms and specifications contained in a construction contract. The
Company provides these services using the traditional general contracting method
as well as under construction management or design-build contracting
arrangements. The Company was engaged in over 100 construction projects in the
United States and overseas during 1999.
The building operation provides its services through regional offices
located in several metropolitan areas: Boston and Atlantic City, serving New
England and the Mid-Atlantic area; Phoenix and Las Vegas, serving Arizona,
Nevada and California; and Detroit, serving the Midwest area. The Company's
building contracting services are provided by Perini Building Company, Inc., a
wholly-owned subsidiary. This company combines substantial resources and
expertise to better serve clients within the building construction market and
enhances Perini's name recognition in this market. The Company undertakes a
broad range of building construction projects including hotels, casinos, health
care facilities, correctional facilities, sports complexes, residential,
commercial, civic, cultural and educational facilities.
The civil operation undertakes large public civil projects in the East,
with current emphasis on major metropolitan areas such as Boston and New York
City and selectively, in other geographic locations. The civil operation
performs construction and rehabilitation of highways, bridges subways, tunnels,
dams, airports, marine projects and waste water treatment facilities. The
Company has been active in civil operations since 1894 and believes that it has
particular expertise in large and complex projects. The Company believes that
infrastructure rehabilitation is, and will continue to be, a significant market
in 2000 and beyond.
Perini Management Services, Inc. (formerly Perini International
Corporation), a wholly-owned subsidiary, provides a broad range of both civil
and building construction services to U.S. government agencies in the U.S. and
selected overseas locations, funded primarily in U.S. dollars. In selected
situations, it pursues other work internationally.
Construction Strategy
---------------------
The Company's current strategy is to concentrate on the civil
construction market in the East and specialized niche building construction
markets throughout the United States, with the goal in both markets to continue
to improve profit margins. The Company believes the best opportunities for
growth in the coming years for its civil construction business are in the urban
infrastructure market, particularly in Boston and metropolitan New York and
other major cities where it has a significant presence, and in other large,
complex projects. The Company's strategy in building construction is to take
advantage of certain market niches, and to expand into new markets compatible
with its expertise. Internally, the Company plans to continue to improve
efficiency through strict attention to the control of overhead expenses.
Finally, the Company continues to expand its expertise to assist public owners
to develop necessary facilities through creative alternative project delivery
methods, including public/private ventures, design-build and
design-build-operate-maintain ("DBOM") arrangements.
During 1996, the Company also adopted a plan to enhance the
profitability of its construction operations by emphasizing gross margin and
bottom line improvement ahead of top line revenue growth. This plan called for
the Company to focus its financial and human resources on construction
operations which are consistently profitable and to de-emphasize marginal
business units. During 1997, the Company closed or downsized and refocused four
business units and combined its two remaining civil construction entities (U.S.
Heavy and Metropolitan New York divisions) under a consolidated management
structure named "Perini Civil". During 1998 and 1999, the Company has continued
to implement these plans.

Backlog
-------
The Company includes a construction project in its backlog at such times
as a contract is awarded or a firm letter of commitment is obtained. As a
result, the backlog figures are firm, subject only to the cancellation
provisions contained in the various contracts.
As of December 31, 1999, the Company has a record construction backlog
of $1.66 billion compared to backlogs of $1.23 billion and $1.31 billion as of
December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The backlog is summarized below by
geographic area and also by business segment:
Backlog (in thousands) as of December 31,

------------ -------- ------------ ------- -------------- -------
Total $ 1,658,077 100% $ 1,232,256 100% $ 1,309,454 100%
============ ======== ============ ======= ============== =======
Backlog in the Northeast region of the United States increased
substantially during 1999 due to the addition of the construction management
services contract for the $650 million Mohegan Sun Phase II Expansion project
("Mohegan Sun Project") and otherwise remains strong because of the Company's
ability to meet the needs of the growing infrastructure construction and
rehabilitation market in this region, particularly in the metropolitan Boston
and New York City areas. The decrease in backlog in the Southwest region is due
to the timing in signing new contracts that are being negotiated and the
redeployment of some of its resources from that region to the Southeast and
Northeast regions, rather than a longer term trend. Other fluctuations in
backlog are viewed by management as transitory.
Backlog (in thousands) as of December 31,
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1999 1998 1997
------------------------- ----------------------- -------------------------
Building $ 1,114,366 67% $ 581,776 47% $ 726,734 55%
Civil 543,711 33 650,480 53 582,720 45
------------ -------- ------------ ------- -------------- -------
Total $ 1,658,077 100% $ 1,232,256 100% $ 1,309,454 100%
============ ======== ============ ======= ============== =======
The historical relationship between Building and Civil is somewhat
distorted in 1999 due to the impact of the Mohegan Sun Project. If that project
was excluded from the backlog at the end of 1999, the remaining backlog would be
divided equally between the Company's Building and Civil construction segments.
The Company estimates that approximately $865 million of its backlog
will not be completed in 2000.
Types of Contracts
------------------
The four general types of contracts in current use in the construction industry
are:
o Fixed price contracts ("FP"), which include fixed unit price contracts,
usually transfer more risk to the contractor but offer the opportunity,
under favorable circumstances, for greater profits. With the Company's
4
concentration in publicly bid civil construction projects, fixed price
contracts continue to represent a significant portion of the backlog.
o Cost plus award fee contracts ("CPAF") which provide greater safety for
the contractor from a financial standpoint, but limit profits.
o Guaranteed maximum price contracts ("GMP") which provide for a
cost plus fee arrangement up to a maximum agreed price. These contracts
place risks on the contractor, but may permit an opportunity for greater
profits than cost plus award fee contracts through sharing agreements
with the client on any cost savings.
o Construction management contracts ("CM") under which a contractor agrees
to manage a project for the owner for an agreed-upon fee which may be
fixed or may vary based upon negotiated factors. The contractor
generally provides services to supervise and coordinate the construction
work on a project, but does not directly purchase contract materials,
provide construction labor and equipment or enter into agreements with
subcontractors.
Historically, a high percentage of company contracts have been of the
fixed price and GMP type contracts and during 1999, the percentage of
construction management contracts increased significantly due to the addition of
the Mohegan Sun Project referred to above. Cost plus award fee contracts remain
a relatively small percentage of company contracts. A summary of revenues and
backlog by type of contract for the most recent three years follows:

Clients
-------
During 1999, the Company was active in the building, civil and to a
lesser extent, the international construction markets. The Company performed
work for over 50 federal, state and local governmental agencies or authorities
and private customers during 1999. Due to the Company's trend toward fewer, but
larger contracts, a material part of the Company's business has been dependent
on a single or limited number of private customers and/or public agencies in
recent years (see Note 13 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements),
the loss of any one of which could have a materially adverse effect on the
Company. During the period 1997-1999, the portion of construction revenues
derived from contracts with various governmental agencies was 40% in 1999, 43%
in 1998 and 51% in 1997.

General
-------
The construction business is highly competitive. Competition is based
primarily on price, reputation for on time completion, quality, reliability and
financial strength of the contractor. While the Company experiences a great deal
of competition from other large general contractors, some of which may be larger
with greater financial resources than the Company, as well as from a number of
smaller local contractors, it believes it has sufficient technical, managerial
and
5
financial resources combined with a positive reputation of performance to be
competitive in each of its major market areas.
The Company will endeavor to spread the financial and/or operational
risk, as it has from time to time in the past, by participating in construction
joint ventures, both in a majority and in a minority position, for the purpose
of bidding and if awarded, performing on projects. These joint ventures are
generally based on a standard joint venture agreement whereby each of the joint
venture participants is usually committed to supply a predetermined percentage
of capital, as required, and to share in the same predetermined percentage of
income or loss of the project on a joint and several basis. Although joint
ventures tend to spread the risk of loss, the Company's initial obligations to
the venture may increase if one of the other participants is financially unable
to bear its portion of cost and expenses. For further information regarding
certain joint ventures, see Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements.
While the Company's construction business may experience some adverse
consequences if shortages develop or if prices for materials, labor or equipment
increase excessively, provisions in certain types of contracts often shift all
or a major portion of any adverse impact to the customer. On fixed price type
contracts, the Company attempts to insulate itself from the unfavorable effects
of inflation by incorporating escalating wage and price assumptions, where
appropriate, into its construction bids. Construction and other materials used
in the Company's construction activities are generally available locally from
multiple sources and have been in adequate supply during recent years.
Construction work in selected overseas areas primarily employs expatriate and
local labor which can usually be obtained as required. The Company does not
anticipate any significant impact in 2000 from material and/or labor shortages
or price increases.
Economic and demographic trends tend not to have a material impact on
the Company's civil construction operation. Instead, the Company's civil
construction markets are dependent on the amount of heavy civil infrastructure
work funded by various governmental agencies which, in turn, may depend on the
condition of the existing infrastructure or the need for new expanded
infrastructure. The building markets in which the Company participates are
dependent on economic and demographic trends, as well as governmental policy
decisions as they impact the specific geographic markets.
The Company has minimal exposure to environmental liability as a result
of the activities of Perini Environmental Services, Inc. ("Perini
Environmental"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company that was phased out
during 1997. Perini Environmental provided hazardous waste engineering and
construction services to both private clients and public agencies nationwide.
Perini Environmental was responsible for compliance with applicable laws in
connection with its clean up activities and bore the risk associated with
handling such materials. In addition to strict procedural guidelines for conduct
of this work, the Company and Perini Environmental generally carried insurance
or received satisfactory indemnification from customers to cover the risks
associated with this business. The Company also owns real estate in four states
and as an owner, is subject to laws governing environmental responsibility and
liability based on ownership. The Company is not aware of any environmental
liability associated with its ownership of real estate property.
The Company has been subjected to a number of claims from former
employees of subcontractors regarding exposure to asbestos on the Company's
projects. None of the claims have been material. The Company also operates
construction machinery in its business and will, depending on the project or the
ease of access to fuel for such machinery, install fuel tanks for use on site.
Such tanks run the risk of leaking hazardous fluids into the environment. The
Company, however, is not aware of any emissions associated with such tanks or of
any other significant environmental liability associated with its construction
operations or any of its corporate activities.
Progress on projects in certain areas may be delayed by weather
conditions depending on the type of project, stage of completion and severity of
the weather. Such delays, if they occur, may result in more volatile quarterly
operating results due to less progress than anticipated being achieved on
projects.
In the normal course of business, the Company periodically evaluates its
existing construction markets and seeks to identify any growing markets where it
feels it has the expertise and management capability to successfully compete or
withdraw from markets which are no longer economically attractive, which it did
during 1997 as discussed above.

Real Estate
- -----------
The Company's real estate development operations were conducted by
Perini Land & Development Company ("PL&D"), a wholly-owned subsidiary, which had
real estate development projects in Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia and
Massachusetts at the beginning of 1999. Effective June 30, 1999, management
adopted a plan to withdraw completely from the real estate development business
and to wind down the operations of PL&D. Therefore, both historical and current
real estate results have been presented in the Company's financial statements as
discontinued operations in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. Based on the plan, the 1999 results include a $99.3 million non-cash
provision which represents the estimated loss on disposal of this business
segment. This non-cash charge reflects the impact of the disposition of the
Rincon Center property located in San Francisco and the reduction in projected
future cash flow from the disposition of PL&D's remaining real estate
development operations resulting from the change in strategy of holding the
properties through the necessary development and stabilization periods to a new
strategy of generating short-term liquidity through an accelerated disposition
or bulk sale.
Real Estate Properties
----------------------
The following is a description of the Company's major development
projects and properties by geographic area:
Florida
West Palm Beach and Palm Beach County - At Metrocentre, a 51-acre
commercial/office park at the intersection of Interstate 95 and 45th Street in
West Palm Beach, the last 5 acres of land were sold in 1999.
Massachusetts
Perini Land & Development or Paramount Development Associates, Inc.
("Paramount"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of PL&D, own the following projects:
Raynham Woods Commerce Center, Raynham - During the late 1980's,
Paramount acquired a 409-acre site located in Raynham, Massachusetts and
completed infrastructure work on a major portion of the site (330 acres) which
was being developed as a mixed-use corporate campus style park known as "Raynham
Woods Commerce Center". From 1989 through 1998, Paramount sold an aggregate of
75 acres to various users. During 1999, Paramount sold 10 acres which leaves
approximately 150 saleable acres to be sold.
Easton Business Center, Easton - In 1989, Paramount acquired a 40-acre
site in Easton, Massachusetts, which already had been partially developed and
completed the development. The site was sold during 1999.
Wareham - In early 1990, Paramount acquired an 18.9-acre parcel of land
at the junction of Routes 495 and 58 in Wareham, Massachusetts. The property is
being marketed to both retail and commercial/industrial users. No sales were
closed in 1999.
Georgia
The Villages at Lake Ridge, Clayton County - During 1987, PL&D (49%)
entered into a joint venture with 138 Joint Venture Partners to develop a
348-acre planned commercial and residential community in Clayton County called
"The Villages at Lake Ridge". Since its acquisition, the joint venture has put
in a substantial portion of the infrastructure, all of the recreational
amenities, and through 1998 had sold 352 single family lots to builders, along
with a 22.3-acre tract designed for 88 lots, a 16-acre parcel for use as an
elementary school and developed a 278-unit apartment complex which it later sold
to a third party buyer. In 1999 the joint venture sold the remaining lots and
commercial tracts except for a single family tract of 28 acres and a 22 acre
apartment tract, both of which are under contract to be sold in 2000.
7
California
Rincon Center, San Francisco - Major construction on this mixed-use
project in downtown San Francisco was completed in 1989 for Rincon Center
Associates, a joint venture in which PL&D held a 46% interest and was the
managing general partner. The project, known as "Rincon Center" consisted of 320
residential units, approximately 423,000 square feet of office space, 63,000
square feet of retail space, and a 700-space parking garage. Following its
completion in 1988, Phase I of the project was sold and leased backed under a
master lease by the developing partnership. Loans on the project aggregating
$48.3 million matured in 1998 and were not refinanced pending certain debt
restructuring negotiations that continued into the third quarter of 1999. As
part of the Rincon Center Phase I sale and operating lease-back transaction, the
lease provided that if an additional financial commitment to replace at least
$33 million of long-term financing relating to Phase I had not been arranged by
January 1, 1998, the lessee would have been deemed to have made an offer to
purchase the property for a stipulated amount of approximately $18.8 million in
excess of the then outstanding debt. An arrangement had been made to delay this
event to allow the parties to finalize the financial restructuring referred to
above and to eventually cancel this requirement as part of the terms to the
various restructuring agreements.
The restructuring negotiations terminated during the third quarter of
1999. Subsequently, the Company and PL&D, the managing general partner in the
project, entered into a full and final non-cash settlement regarding its
interest in the property. As part of the settlement and in exchange for the
transfer of its ownership interest in the property, the Company has exchanged
mutual releases with the other general partner, the project-related lenders, the
lessor on Phase I and all other entities formally associated with the property
from any claims, lawsuits or other liabilities they might have had with respect
to each other in connection with the property.
Arizona
Perini Central Limited Partnership, Phoenix - In 1985, PL&D (75%)
entered into a joint venture with the Central United Methodist Church to master
plan and develop approximately 4.4 acres of the church's property in midtown
Phoenix. In 1990, the project was successfully rezoned to permit development of
580,000 square feet of office, 37,000 square feet of retail and 162 luxury
apartments. During 1999, the Company continued to look for a prospective buyer.
Grove at Black Canyon, Phoenix - The project consists of an office park
complex on a 30-acre site located off of Black Canyon Freeway, a major Phoenix
artery, approximately 20 minutes from downtown Phoenix. When complete, the
project could include approximately 650,000 square feet of office, hotel,
restaurant and/or retail space. In 1987, a 150,000-square foot office building
was completed within the park and substantially leased up immediately, with
approximately half of the building leased to a major area utility company. Land
sales since that time have aggregated approximately 12 acres and during 1999,
the office building was sold. At December 31, 1999, the remaining 6 acres are
under contract to be sold in 2000.
Sabino Springs Country Club, Tucson - During 1990, the Tucson Board of
Supervisors unanimously approved a plan for this 410-acre residential golf
course community close to the foothills on the east side of Tucson. In 1991,
that approval, which had been challenged, was affirmed by the Arizona Supreme
Court. When fully developed, the project will consist of 496 single-family
homes. In 1993, PL&D recorded the master plat on the project and sold a major
portion of the property to an international real estate company. An 18-hole
Robert Trent Jones, Jr. designed championship golf course and clubhouse were
completed within the project in 1995. In 1998, PL&D settled a lawsuit with the
prior purchaser of the major portion of the property which required PL&D to
complete a certain portion of the infrastructure by the end of the Year 2000.
During 1999, PL&D commenced the required infrastructure development which must
be completed before PL&D can sell the 33 estate lots it still retains.
8
Insurance and Bonding
- ---------------------
All of the Company's properties and equipment, both directly owned or
owned through partnerships or joint ventures with others, are covered by
insurance, and management believes that such insurance is adequate.
In conjunction with its construction business, the Company is often
required to provide various types of surety bonds. The Company has a co-surety
arrangement with three sureties, one of which it has dealt with for over 75
years, and it has never been refused a bond. Although from time-to-time the
surety industry encounters limitations affecting the bondability of very large
projects and the Company occasionally has encountered limits imposed by its
surety, these limits have not had an adverse impact on its operations.
Employees
- ---------
The total number of personnel employed by the Company is subject to
seasonal fluctuations, the volume of construction in progress and the relative
amount of work performed by subcontractors. During 1999, the maximum number of
employees was approximately 2,750 and the minimum was approximately 1,500.
The Company operates as a union contractor. As such, it is a signatory
to numerous local and regional collective bargaining agreements, both directly
and through trade associations, throughout the country. These agreements cover
all necessary union crafts and are subject to various renewal dates. Estimated
amounts for wage escalation related to the expiration of union contracts are
included in the Company's bids on various projects and, as a result, the
expiration of any union contract in the current fiscal year is not expected to
have any material impact on the Company.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
- ------- -----------------
As previously reported, the Company is a party to an action entitled
Mergentime Corporation et. al. v. Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority
("WMATA") v. Insurance Company of North America (Civil Action No. 89-1055) in
the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. The action involves
WMATA's termination of the general contractor, a joint venture in which the
Company was a minority partner, on two contracts to construct a portion of the
Washington, D.C. subway system, and certain claims by the joint venture against
WMATA for claimed delays and extra work.
On July 30, 1993, the Court upheld the termination for default, and
found both joint venturers and their surety jointly and severally liable to
WMATA for damages in the amount of $16.5 million, consisting primarily of
WMATA's excess reprocurement costs, but specifically deferred ruling on the
amount of the joint venture's claims against WMATA. Since the other joint
venture partner may be unable to meet its financial obligations under the award,
the Company could be liable for the entire amount.
At the direction of the successor judge presiding over the action,
during the third quarter of 1995, the parties submitted briefs on the issue of
WMATA's liability on the joint venture's claims for delays and for extra work.
As a result of that process, the Company established a reserve with respect to
the litigation.
In July 1997, the remaining issues were ruled on by the successor judge,
who awarded approximately $4.3 million to the joint venture, thereby reducing
the net amount payable to approximately $12.2 million. The joint venture
appealed the decision. As a result of the decision, there was no immediate
impact on the Company's Statement of Operations because of the reserve provided
in prior years.
On February 16, 1999, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of
Columbia vacated the April 1995 and July 1997 Orders and remanded the case back
to the successor judge with instructions for the successor judge to consider
certain post-trial motions to the same extent an original judge would have, and
to make findings and conclusions regarding the unresolved issues, giving
appropriate consideration to whether or not witnesses must be recalled. During
1999, a new successor judge was appointed. Based on the suggestions of the
successor judge, the parties have agreed to participate in non-binding
mediation. If the parties do not agree to a settlement based on the mediation
process or otherwise, a final judgment will be entered by the District Court
upon the completion of these Appeals Court-directed procedures. The actual
funding of net damages, if any, will be deferred until the litigation process is
complete.
In the ordinary course of its construction business, the Company is
engaged in other lawsuits, and arbitration and alternative dispute resolution
("ADR") proceedings. The Company believes that such other lawsuits and
proceedings are usually unavoidable in major construction operations and that
their resolution will not materially affect its results of future operations and
financial position.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OF OPERATIONS
- -------------
Results of Operations -
1999 Compared to 1998
Continuing Operations
- ---------------------
The Company's continuing construction operations produced income of $16.4
million (or $1.80 per Common Share) in 1999 compared to income of $16.0 million
(or $1.91 per Common Share) in 1998. Overall, the 1999 results from continuing
operations include strong profit contributions from both the building and civil
construction segments as well as lower interest expense.
Revenues from continuing construction operations increased $8.2 million (or
0.8%) from $1,011.3 million in 1998 to $1,019.5 million in 1999. This increase
was due primarily to an increase in building construction revenues of $17.1
million (or 2.5%) from $679.3 million in 1998 to $ 696.4 million in 1999, which
more than offset a decrease in revenues from civil construction operations of
$8.9 million (or 2.7%) from $332.0 million in 1998 to $323.1 million in 1999.
The increase in revenues from building construction operations was due primarily
to the start up of several new projects in the East. The slight decrease in
revenues from civil construction operations was due primarily to the completion
of several major mass transit and infrastructure projects in late 1998 and early
1999.
Overall, gross profit decreased $3.2 million (or 6.0%) from $53.7 million in
1998 to $50.5 million in 1999, due to decreases in gross profit from both
building and civil construction operations. Despite the increase in revenues
noted above, gross profit from building construction operations decreased $1.7
million (or 5.5%) from $30.7 million in 1998 to $29.0 million in 1999 due
primarily to additional losses attributable to the phasing out of a building
construction division in the Midwest. Gross profit from civil construction
operations decreased $1.5 million (or 6.5%) from $23.0 million in 1998 to $21.5
million in 1999 due primarily to the decrease in revenues noted above.
The decrease in general, administrative and selling expenses of $0.8 million (or
2.9%) from $27.4 million in 1998 to $26.6 million in 1999, resulted primarily
from the continued phase out of two construction divisions in the Midwest and
ongoing cost reduction programs.
Other income (expense), net improved by $0.7 million from a net expense of $0.6
million in 1998 to a net income of $0.1 million in 1999. This improvement was
due to a $1.5 million increase in gain on sale of investments which was partly
offset by a $0.8 million increase in bank fees relating to the Company's
revolving credit facility.
Interest expense decreased by $1.4 million from $8.5 million in 1998 to $7.1
million in 1999, due primarily to lower average levels of borrowing during 1999.
The lower than normal tax rate for the three year period ended December 31, 1999
is due to the utilization of tax loss carryforwards from prior years. Because of
certain accounting limitations, the Company was not able to recognize a portion
of the tax benefit related to the operating losses experienced in fiscal 1996
and 1995. As a result of these losses and the loss recognized in 1999, an amount
estimated to be approximately $142 million of pretax earnings subsequent to 1999
could benefit from minimal, if any, federal tax charges. The net deferred tax
assets reflect management's estimate of the amount that will, more likely than
not, be realized (see Note 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
Discontinued Operations
- -----------------------
Effective June 30, 1999, management adopted a plan to withdraw completely from
the real estate development business and to wind down the operations of Perini
Land and Development Company ("PL&D"), the Company's real estate development
subsidiary. Therefore, both historical and current real estate results have been
presented as a discontinued operation in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. Based on the plan, the 1999 results include a $99.3
million non-cash provision which represents the estimated loss on disposal of
this business segment. This non-cash charge reflects the impact of the
disposition of the Rincon Center property located in San Francisco and the
13
reduction in projected future cash flow from the disposition of PL&D's remaining
real estate development operations resulting from the change in strategy of
holding the properties through the necessary development and stabilization
periods to a new strategy of generating short-term liquidity through an
accelerated disposition or bulk sale. The estimated loss on disposal of the real
estate business segment also includes a provision for shut down costs related to
PL&D during the wind down period. No federal tax benefit was attributable to the
estimated loss on disposal of the real estate business segment due to certain
accounting limitations. During the fourth quarter of 1999, the Company and PL&D,
the managing general partner of Rincon Center Associates ("RCA"), entered into a
full and final non-cash settlement regarding its interests in the Rincon Center
property. As part of the settlement and in exchange for the transfer of its
ownership interest in the RCA property, the Company has exchanged mutual
releases with the other RCA general partner, the RCA-related lenders and all
other entities formally associated with the RCA property from any claims,
lawsuits or other liabilities they may have with respect to each other in
connection with the RCA property. This completes a major step in the Company's
plan to discontinue its real estate development operations. In addition, during
the last half of 1999, PL&D concluded the sale of two other properties at prices
approximating those originally anticipated in calculating the estimated loss on
disposal of the real estate business segment at June 30, 1999. The actual loss
from the sale of these two properties and loss on disposition of the RCA
property approximated the losses originally estimated as of June 30, 1999.
Several of the remaining real estate properties now being offered for sale are
currently under or are pending purchase and sale agreements.
Results of Operations -
1998 Compared to 1997
Continuing Operations
- ---------------------
The Company's continuing construction operations produced income of $16.0
million (or $1.91 per Common Share) in 1998 compared to income of $7.9 million
(or $.52 per Common Share) in 1997. This substantially improved performance is
attributable to higher margins on the work performed by both the Company's
building and civil operating units, primarily from the hotel/casino market in
Nevada and from civil infrastructure work in the Northeast and further
reductions in general and administrative and interest expense. These
improvements more than offset the impact of a decrease in 1998 construction
revenues.
Revenues from continuing construction operations decreased $264.7 million (or
21%) from $1,276.0 million in 1997 to $1,011.3 million in 1998. This decrease
was due primarily to a decrease in revenues from both building and civil
construction operations. Revenues from building operations decreased $209.5
million (or 24%) from $888.8 million in 1997 to $679.3 million in 1998, due
primarily to the timing of the start up of new hotel/casino projects in Las
Vegas, a decrease in revenues from airport facilities and a sports complex in
the West, and a decrease in revenues from correctional facilities projects in
the East. Revenues from civil construction operations decreased $55.2 million
(or 14%) from $387.2 million in 1997 to $332.0 million in 1998, due primarily to
the timing in the start up of new work in the Northeast. The phasing out of two
divisions in the Midwest also contributed to the decrease in revenues from both
the building and civil operations.
In spite of the overall 21% decrease in total revenues described above, total
gross profit actually increased by $3.5 million (or 7%), from $50.2 million in
1997 to $53.7 million in 1998, due primarily to improved margins on both the
building and civil construction work performed in 1998.
The decrease in general, administrative and selling expenses of $2.3 million (or
7.7%) from $29.7 million in 1997 to $27.4 million in 1998, resulted primarily
from phasing out two construction divisions in the Midwest, efficiencies
achieved by combining certain other divisions and continuation of downsizing
certain corporate departments.
Other income (expense), net improved by $1.1 million from a net expense of $1.7
million in 1997 to a net expense of $0.6 million in 1998, due to an increase in
interest income and a decrease in bank fees.
Interest expense decreased by $1.4 million from $9.9 million in 1997 to $8.5
million in 1998, due primarily to lower average levels of borrowing during 1998.
14
Financial Condition
- -------------------
Cash and Working Capital
During 1999, cash generated from operating activities in the amount of $27.8
million, due primarily to changes in various elements of working capital, was
approximately equal to the amount of cash generated from operating activities in
1998 and continued to reflect improvement over recent prior years. The funds
generated were used for investing activities ($13.5 million), primarily for
funding the working capital needs of certain construction joint ventures, and
for financing activities ($2.6 million), primarily to pay down borrowings and to
increase cash on hand by $11.7 million.
During 1998, the Company generated $27.8 million in cash from operating
activities, due primarily to changes in various elements of working capital. The
funds generated were used for investing activities ($2.2 million), primarily for
funding the working capital needs of the Company's discontinued real estate
operations, and for financing activities ($10.4 million), primarily to pay down
borrowings and to increase cash on hand by $15.2 million.
During 1997, the Company generated $11.8 million from investing activities,
primarily from net cash distributions from construction joint ventures and the
sale of The Resort at Squaw Creek property, and $17.4 million from financing
activities, due to the net proceeds received on the sale of Series B Preferred
Stock less pay downs of long-term debt. These funds were used for operating
activities ($7.6 million) and to increase the cash on hand by $21.6 million.
Effective January 17, 1997, the Company's liquidity and access to future
borrowings, as required, during the next few years were significantly enhanced
by the issuance of $30 million in Redeemable Series B Cumulative Convertible
Preferred Stock (see Note 7 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements) and
the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement referred to in Note 4 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements. The aggregate amount available under its
revolving credit agreement increased to $129.5 million at that time, although it
has subsequently been reduced and stands at $73.0 million at December 31, 1999.
In addition to internally generated funds, at December 31, 1999, the Company has
approximately $2.0 million available under its revolving credit facility. The
financial covenants to which the Company is subject include minimum levels of
working capital, tangible net worth and operating cash flow and certain
restrictions on real estate investments and future cash dividends, all as
defined in the loan documents. Although the Company would have been in violation
of certain of the covenants during 1999, it obtained waivers of such violations.
Also, during the last three years, the Company made substantial progress on a
strategy adopted at the end of 1996 that called for liquidating certain real
estate assets which were written down at that time, resolving several major
construction claims and minimizing overhead expenses.
On February 5, 2000, the Company entered into a definitive Securities Purchase
Agreement, subject to certain conditions, whereby the new investors have agreed
to purchase $40 million of the Company's Common Stock, $1.00 par value. If this
transaction is consummated, the Company's liquidity, working capital and access
to future borrowings, as required, during the next few years will be
significantly enhanced by the "New Equity" and "New Credit Agreement" referred
to in Note 15 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
The working capital current ratio was 1.23:1 at the end of 1999 compared to
1.29:1 at the end of 1998, and 1.34:1 at the end of 1997. Of the total working
capital of $48.4 million at the end of 1999, approximately $24 million may not
be converted to cash within the next 12 to 18 months.
Long-term Debt
Long-term debt was $41.1 million at the end of 1999, down from $75.9 million in
1998, $84.6 million in 1997 and $92.6 million in 1996. In addition to the $51.5
million reduction in long-term debt during the three year period ended December
31, 1999, the Company paid down all of its $8.1 million of real estate debt on
wholly-owned real estate projects, utilizing proceeds from sales of property and
general corporate funds. Similarly, real estate joint venture debt of $69.2
million has been reduced to zero during the same three year period.
15
Stockholders' Equity (Deficit)
As a result of the net loss recorded in 1999, due to the $100 million loss from
discontinued real estate operations, the Company's stockholders' equity was
reduced to a negative $36.6 million. The Company's book value per Common Share
stood at a negative $(11.31) at December 31, 1999, compared to $4.17 per Common
Share and $2.44 per Common Share at the end of 1998 and 1997, respectively. The
major factors impacting stockholders' equity during the three-year period under
review were the net income recorded in 1998 and 1997, the net loss recorded in
1999 and, to a lesser extent, preferred dividends paid in-kind or accrued and
stock issued in partial payment of certain expenses.
As mentioned above under "Cash and Working Capital" and in more detail in Note
15 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company recently entered
into a definitive Securities Purchase Agreement, subject to certain conditions,
whereby the new investors have agreed to purchase $40 million of the Company's
common stock. A condition to the Purchase Agreement is that all of the holders
of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock, which has a current accreted face
amount of approximately $40 million, will convert their securities into Common
Stock, $1.00 par value, of the Company at $5.50 per share of common stock. The
impact on the Company's Stockholders' Equity (Deficit) will be to increase it by
approximately $75 million after estimated expenses related to the transaction
(or improving it from a Stockholders' Deficit of $36.6 million at December 31,
1999 to a positive Stockholders' Equity of $38.6 million on a pro forma basis).
If the transaction is consummated, shares of Common Stock held by the new
investors and the former holders of the Series B Preferred Stock will represent
approximately 42.0% and 32.5% of the Company's voting rights, respectively.
At December 31, 1999, there were 1,098 common stockholders of record based on
the stockholders list maintained by the Company's transfer agent.
Dividends
There were no cash dividends declared or paid on the Company's outstanding
Common Stock during the three years ended December 31, 1999.
During 1995, the Company declared and paid the regular quarterly cash dividends
of $5.3125 per share on the Company's Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Shares
for an annual total of $21.25 per share (equivalent to quarterly dividends of
$.53125 per Depositary Share for an annual total of $2.125 per Depositary
Share). In conjunction with the covenants of the Company's Revolving Credit
Agreement (see Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements), the
Company was required to suspend the payment of quarterly dividends on its
Preferred Stock. Therefore, the dividend that normally would have been declared
during December of 1995 and payable on March 15, 1996, as well as subsequent
quarterly dividends through 1999, have not been declared or paid (although they
have been fully accrued due to the "cumulative" feature of the Preferred Stock).
The current Credit Agreement, approved January 17, 1997, provides that the
Company may not pay cash dividends or make other restricted payments unless: (i)
the Company is not in default under the Credit Agreement; (ii) commitments under
the credit facility have been reduced to less than $75 million; (iii) restricted
payments in any quarter, when added to restricted payments made in the prior
three quarters, do not exceed fifty percent (50%) of net income from continuing
operations for the prior four quarters; and (iv) certain net worth levels (after
taking into consideration the amount of the proposed cash dividend or restricted
payment and as adjusted for non-cash charges incurred in connection with any
disposition or write-down of any real estate investment) are not exceeded and
provided that net worth must be at least $60 million.
For purposes of the current Credit Agreement, net worth shall include the net
proceeds from the sale of the Series B Preferred Stock to the Investors. In
addition, under the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock, the Company may not
pay any cash dividends on its Common Stock until after September 1, 2001, and
then only to the extent such dividends do not exceed in aggregate more than
twenty-five percent (25%) of the Company's consolidated net income available for
distribution to Common shareholders (after Preferred dividends). Prior to any
such dividends, the Company must have elected and paid cash dividends on the
Series B Preferred Stock for the preceding four quarters.
Subject to and concurrent with the closing of the new equity transaction
described in Note 15 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the
Company's Bank Group has agreed in principle to extend and restructure its
Revolving Credit
16
Agreement (the "New Credit Agreement"). Covenants in the New Credit Agreement
provide that the Company may not pay cash dividends or make other restricted
payments unless: (i) the Company is not in default under the New Credit
Agreement; (ii) commitments under the New Credit Agreement have been reduced to
less than $41 million; (iii) restricted payments in any quarter, when added to
restricted payments made in the prior three quarters, do not exceed fifty
percent (50%) of net income from continuing operations for the prior four
quarters; and (iv) net worth (after taking into consideration the amount of the
proposed cash dividend or restricted payment) is at least equal to the amount
shown below:

The aggregate amount of dividends in arrears is approximately $9,030,000 at
December 31, 1999, which represents approximately $90.30 per share of Preferred
Stock or approximately $9.03 per Depositary Share and is included in "Other
Liabilities" (long-term) in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Under the terms of
the Preferred Stock, the holders of the Depositary Shares are entitled to elect
two additional Directors when dividends have been deferred for more than six
quarters, and they did so at both the May 14, 1998 and the May 13, 1999 Annual
Meetings.
The Board of Directors intends to resume payment of dividends when the Company
satisfies the terms of the New Credit Agreement, the provisions of the Series B
Preferred Stock and the Board deems it prudent to do so.
Outlook
o Continuing Construction Operations - Looking ahead, the overall
construction backlog at the end of 1999 was $1.658 billion, up 35% from
the 1998 year end backlog of $1.232 billion. This increase primarily
reflects the addition of the construction management services contract
for the $650 million Mohegan Sun Phase II Expansion project in
Uncasville, CT. Approximately 67% of the current backlog relates to
building construction projects which generally represent lower risk,
lower margin work, and approximately 33% of the current backlog relates
to civil construction projects which generally represent higher risk,
but correspondingly potentially higher margin work. During 1996, the
Company adopted a plan to enhance the profitability of its construction
operations by emphasizing gross margin and bottom line improvement ahead
of top line revenue growth. This plan called for the Company to focus
its financial and human resources on construction operations which are
consistently profitable and to de-emphasize marginal business units.
Consistent with that Plan, the Company implemented plans to close or
downsize and refocus four business units during 1997 and during 1998 and
1999 has continued to implement these plans. The Company believes the
outlook for its building and civil construction businesses continues to
be promising.
o Discontinued Real Estate Operations - As described in detail on pages 2
and 7, and in Notes 1 and 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements, the Company is proceeding to implement its plan to wind down
its discontinued real estate development operations. A major step in the
plan was completed during the fourth quarter of 1999 whereby the Company
entered into a settlement agreement regarding its interest in the Rincon
Center property. As
17
part of the settlement and in exchange for the transfer of its ownership
interest in the RCA property, the Company has exchanged mutual releases
with the other RCA general partners, the RCA-related lenders and all
other entities formally associated with the RCA property from any
claims, lawsuits or other liabilities they may have with respect to each
other in connection with the Rincon Center property. In addition, during
the last six months of 1999, PL&D concluded the sale of two other
properties at prices approximating those originally anticipated in
calculating the estimated loss on disposal of the real estate business
segment at June 30, 1999. Several of the remaining real estate
properties now being offered for sale are currently under or are pending
a purchase and sale agreement.
o Rebuilding Equity - As a result of the net loss recorded in 1999, the
Company's stockholders' equity has been reduced to a negative $36.6
million. As described in detail in "Stockholders' Equity (Deficit)" on
page 16 and in Note 15 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements,
the Company and an investor group have entered into a definitive
Securities Purchase Agreement. Subject to, among other things,
shareholder approval and agreement of the holders of Series B Preferred
Stock to convert their securities into common stock at $5.50 per share
of common stock, the transaction should close in the first or second
quarter of 2000 and result in a restoration of balance sheet net worth
and improve liquidity and working capital to support the ongoing core
construction operations.
o Liquidity - With the receipt of $30 million from the sale of its
Redeemable Series B Preferred Stock and the New Credit Agreement both
becoming effective on January 17, 1997, the Company's near term
liquidity position improved substantially, enabling payments to vendors
to generally be made in accordance with normal payment terms. In order
to generate cash and reduce the Company's dependence on bank debt to
fund the working capital needs of its core construction operations as
well as to lower the Company's substantial interest expense and
strengthen the balance sheet in the longer term, the Company has
discontinued its real estate development business and is in the process
of liquidating its real estate portfolio. The Company will continue to
actively pursue the favorable conclusion of various unapproved change
orders and construction claims; to focus new construction work
acquisition efforts on various niche markets and geographic areas where
the Company has a proven history of success; to downsize or close
operations with marginal prospects for success; to continue to restrict
the payment of cash dividends on the Company's $1 par value Common Stock
and $2.125 Depositary Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock; and to
continue to seek ways to control overhead expenses.
o New Equity and New Credit Agreement - As described in Note 15 of Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements, the Transaction would, if
consummated, significantly improve the Company's financial condition and
liquidity. If the Transaction is not consummated, management's intent
would be to renegotiate the terms of its credit facility and continue to
pay the in-kind dividend on the Series B Preferred Stock.
Management believes that cash generated from operations, existing credit
lines, additional borrowings and projected sale of certain real estate
assets referred to above and timely resolution and payment of various
unapproved change orders and construction claims referred to above
should be adequate to meet the Company's funding requirements for at
least the next twelve months.
o Year 2000 Readiness Disclosures - Since many computers, related software
and certain devices with embedded microchips record only the last two
digits of a year, they may not have been able to recognize that January
1, 2000 (or subsequent dates) comes after December 31, 1999. This
situation could have caused erroneous calculations or system shutdowns,
causing problems that could have ranged from merely inconvenient to
significant.
As previously reported, the Company began a project to review all of its
computer systems in 1995. One factor, among many, to consider was what
impact, if any, would the Year 2000 have on computer systems. As a
result of this project, the Company implemented new fully integrated
on-line construction specific financial systems during the first quarter
of 1998 which are Year 2000 compliant. The cost of these new systems,
including the hardware, software and implementation costs, approximated
$1.5 million which was capitalized and is being amortized over ten years
on a straight-line basis.
During 1998, the Company designated a Year 2000 Project Manager who
organized a Year 2000 Team. The Year 2000 Team prepared a Year 2000
Readiness Plan which included the following phases: (1) potential
problem identification, (2) resource commitment, (3) inventory, (4)
assessment, (5) prioritization, (6) remediation and (7)
18
testing. The Company completed the problem identification, resource
commitment and prioritization phases during 1998, the inventory phase
during the first quarter of 1999, and the "assessment", "testing", and
"remediation" phases as of September 30, 1999. As a result of completing
its Year 2000 Plan, as well as the actual commencement of the Year 2000
without any significant computer-related failures or errors experienced
or reported to date, the Company believes its internal financial and
operating systems are compliant. The Company estimates that costs
related to implementation of the Year 2000 Plan, over and above the cost
of the new financial systems referred to above, were approximately $0.4
million which were expensed as incurred.
The Company, as a general contractor, generally provides its
construction services in accordance with detailed contracts and
specifications provided by its clients. In addition to addressing its
own computer applications, facilities, and construction equipment, the
Plan included communication with critical third parties. The Company had
in place and continues to maintain a Year 2000 Urgent Response Team
defined and available to respond to any Year 2000 issues raised by
clients or others, in a timely, proactive and cost effective manner. To
date, no significant Year 2000 related issues have been experienced by
or reported to the Company.
Forward-looking Statements
The statements contained in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of the
Consolidated Financial Statements, including "Outlook", and other sections of
this Annual Report that are not purely historical are forward-looking statements
within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including statements regarding the
Company's expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the
future. Forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties or
other factors that may cause actual results or performance to be materially
different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the continuing
validity of the underlying assumptions and estimates of total forecasted project
revenues, costs and profits and project schedules; the outcomes of pending or
future litigation, arbitration or other dispute resolution proceedings; changes
in federal and state appropriations for infrastructure projects; possible
changes or developments in worldwide or domestic, social, economic, business,
industry, market and regulatory conditions or circumstances; and actions taken
or omitted by third parties including the Company's customers, suppliers,
business partners, and competitors and legislative, regulatory, judicial and
other governmental authorities and officials. In addition, forward-looking
statements regarding the year 2000 issue carry risk factors which include,
without limitation, the availability and cost of personnel trained in these
areas; the ability to locate and correct all relevant computer codes; changes in
consulting fees and costs to remediate or replace hardware and software; changes
in non-incremental costs resulting from redeployment of internal resources;
timely responses to and corrections by third parties such as significant
customers and suppliers; and similar uncertainties.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
- -------- ---------------------------------------------------------
The Company's exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates
primarily to the Company's revolving credit debt (see Note 4 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements) and short-term investment portfolio. As of
December 31, 1999, the Company had $68.0 million borrowed under its revolving
credit agreement and $54.8 million of short-term investments classified as cash
equivalents.
The Company borrows under its bank revolving credit facility for general
corporate purposes, including working capital requirements and capital
expenditures. Borrowings under the bank credit facility bear interest at the
applicable LIBOR or base rate, as defined, and therefore, the Company is subject
to fluctuations in interest rates. If the average effective 1999 borrowing rate
of 8.1% changed by 10% (or 0.81%) during the next twelve months, the impact,
based on the Company's ending 1999 revolving debt balance, would be an increase
or decrease in net income and cash flow of $550,800.
The Company's short-term investment portfolio consists primarily of highly
liquid instruments with maturities of less than one month.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Years Ended December 31, 1999, 1998 & 1997
[1] Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
[a] Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Perini
Corporation, its subsidiaries and certain majority-owned real estate joint
ventures (the "Company"). All subsidiaries are currently wholly-owned. All
significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in
consolidation. Non-consolidated joint venture interests are accounted for on the
equity method with the Company's share of revenues and costs in these interests
included in "Revenues" and "Cost of Operations," respectively, in the
accompanying consolidated statements of operations. All significant intercompany
profits between the Company and its joint ventures have been eliminated in
consolidation. Taxes are provided on joint venture results in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes".
[b] Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The
most significant estimates with regard to these financial statements relate to
the estimating of final construction contract profits in accordance with
accounting for long-term contracts (see Note 1(c) below), estimating future cash
flows from real estate dispositions (see Note 1(d) below and Note 2) and
estimating potential liabilities in conjunction with certain contingencies and
commitments, as discussed in Note 11 below. Actual results could differ from
these estimates.
[c] Method of Accounting for Contracts
Profits from construction contracts and construction joint ventures are
generally recognized by applying percentages of completion for each year to the
total estimated profits for the respective contracts. The percentages of
completion are determined by relating the actual cost of the work performed to
date to the current estimated total cost of the respective contracts. When the
estimate on a contract indicates a loss, the Company's policy is to record the
entire loss. The cumulative effect of revisions in estimates of total cost or
revenue during the course of the work is reflected in the accounting period in
which the facts that caused the revision become known. An amount equal to the
costs attributable to unapproved change orders and claims is included in the
total estimated revenue when realization is probable. Profit from unapproved
change orders and claims is recorded in the year such amounts are resolved.
In accordance with normal practice in the construction industry, the Company
includes in current assets and current liabilities amounts related to
construction contracts realizable and payable over a period in excess of one
year. Unbilled work represents the excess of contract costs and profits
recognized to date on the percentage of completion accounting method over
billings to date on certain contracts. Deferred contract revenue represents the
excess of billings to date over the amount of contract costs and profits
recognized to date on the percentage of completion accounting method on the
remaining contracts.
[d] Methods of Accounting for Real Estate Operations
Effective June 30, 1999, the Company adopted a plan to withdraw completely from
its real estate development business segment, which is presented as a
discontinued operation in accordance with Accounting Principles Board ("APB")
Opinion No. 30, Reporting the Results of Operations (see Note 2). Accordingly,
the historical amounts for 1998 and 1997 have been restated to conform to the
requirements of APB No. 30.
31
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Years Ended December 31, 1999, 1998 & 1997 (continued)
[1] Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
[d] Methods of Accounting for Real Estate Operations (continued)
Real estate investments are stated at the lower of the carrying amounts, which
includes applicable interest and real estate taxes during the development and
construction phases, or fair value less cost to sell in accordance with SFAS No.
121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to Be Disposed Of ". SFAS No. 121 requires that assets to be held and
used be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An
impairment has occurred when the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the
related undiscounted future cash flows of a development. SFAS No. 121 also
provides that when management has committed to a plan to dispose of specific
real estate assets, the assets should be reported at the lower of the carrying
amount or fair value less cost to sell. Estimating future cash flows of a
development involves estimating the current sales value of the development less
the estimated costs of completion (to the stage of completion assumed in
determining the selling price), holding and disposal. Estimated sales values are
forecast based on comparable local sales (where applicable), trends as foreseen
by knowledgeable local commercial real estate brokers or others active in the
business and/or project specific experience such as offers made directly to the
Company relating to the property. If the estimated undiscounted future cash
flows of a development are less than the carrying amount of a development, SFAS
No. 121 requires a provision to be made to reduce the carrying amount of the
development to fair value less cost to sell.
[e] Depreciable Property and Equipment
Land, buildings and improvements, construction and computer-related equipment
and other equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided primarily
using accelerated methods for construction and computer-related equipment and
the straight-line method for the remaining depreciable property.
[f] Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the costs of subsidiaries acquired over the
fair value of their net assets as of the dates of acquisition. These amounts are
being amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 years.
[g] Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes," (see Note 5). Deferred income tax assets and
liabilities are recognized for the effects of temporary differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts and the income tax basis of assets and
liabilities using enacted tax rates. In addition, future tax benefits, such as
net operating loss carryforwards, are recognized currently to the extent such
benefits are more likely than not to be realized as an economic benefit in the
form of a reduction of income taxes in future years.
[h] Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share
Earnings (loss) per common share amounts were calculated in accordance with SFAS
No. 128, "Earnings Per Share". Basic earnings (loss) per common share ("EPS")
was computed by dividing net income (loss) less dividends and other requirements
related to Preferred Stock by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share was computed by giving
effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding. The weighted average
shares used in the diluted earnings (loss) per common share computations were
essentially the same as those used in the basic earnings (loss) per common share
computations (see below). Basic EPS equals diluted EPS for all periods presented
due to the immaterial effect of stock options and the antidilutive effect of
conversion of the Company's Depositary Convertible Exchangeable Preferred
Shares, Series B Preferred Shares and Stock Purchase Warrants.

financial statements and footnotes to reflect the discontinued operations
referred to in Note 2.
[k] Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
During 1998, SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments and
Hedging Activities" was issued. The Company will implement the provisions of the
Statement (as amended by SFAS No. 137) in the quarter ending March 31, 2001. The
Statement establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that every
derivative instrument (including certain derivative instruments embedded in
other contracts) be recorded in the balance sheet as
33

For the Years Ended December 31, 1999, 1998 & 1997 (continued)
[1] Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
[k] Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards (continued)
either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. The Statement requires
that changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized currently in earnings
unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. Special accounting for
qualifying hedges allows a derivative's gains and losses to offset related
results on the hedged item in the income statement and requires that the Company
must formally document, designate, and assess the effectiveness of transactions
that receive hedge accounting. The Company does not currently hold any
significant derivative instruments or engage in significant hedging activities
and, therefore, the impact of adopting Statement No. 133 is expected to be
immaterial.
[2] Discontinued Operations
Effective June 30, 1999, management adopted a plan to withdraw completely from
the real estate development business and to wind down the operations of Perini
Land and Development Company ("PL&D"), the Company's wholly-owned real estate
development subsidiary. Therefore, both historical and current real estate
results have been presented as a discontinued operation in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. Based on the plan, the 1999 results
include a $99,311,000 non-cash provision which represents the estimated loss on
disposal of this business segment. This non-cash charge reflects the impact of
the disposition of the Rincon Center property located in San Francisco and the
reduction in projected future cash flow from the disposition of PL&D's remaining
real estate development operations resulting from the change in strategy of
holding the properties through the necessary development and stabilization
periods to a new strategy of generating short-term liquidity through an
accelerated disposition or bulk sale. The estimated loss on disposal of the real
estate business segment also includes a provision for shut down costs related to
PL&D during the wind down period. No Federal tax benefit was attributable to
Losses from Discontinued Operations due to certain accounting limitations.
Several of the remaining real estate properties now being offered for sale are
currently under or are pending purchase and sale agreements. Real estate
revenues were $18,073,000 in 1999, $24,578,000 in 1998, and $48,458,000 in 1997.
Net current and long-term assets of discontinued operations at December 31, 1999
and 1998 consisted of the following (in thousands):
1999 1998
-------------- ---------------
Current assets $ 14,566 $ 9,735

Minority interest - (1,458)
-------------- ---------------
Net long-term assets of discontinued operations $ - $ 104,017
============== ===============
During the six month period ended December 31, 1999, PL&D concluded the sale of
two properties. The net proceeds of $14.6 million realized from the sale of
these two properties was equal to the net proceeds originally anticipated in
calculating the estimated loss on disposal of the real estate business segment
at June 30, 1999. The actual loss from the sale of these two properties was
approximately equal to the loss originally anticipated in calculating the
estimated loss on disposal of the real estate business segment at June 30, 1999.
In addition, the Company completed a major step in its plan to discontinue its
real estate development operations by concluding the disposition of the Rincon
Center property. The Company and PL&D, the managing partner of Rincon Center
Associates ("RCA"), entered into a full and final non-cash settlement regarding
its interest in Rincon Center. As part of the settlement and in exchange for the
transfer of its
34
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Years Ended December 31, 1999, 1998 & 1997 (continued)
[2] Discontinued Operations (continued)
ownership interest in the RCA property, the Company exchanged mutual releases
with the other RCA general partner, the RCA-related lenders and all other
entities formally associated with the RCA property from any claims, lawsuits or
other liabilities they may have with respect to each other in connection with
the Rincon Center property. The loss realized upon disposition of this property
approximated the estimated loss originally calculated at June 30, 1999.
[3] Joint Ventures
The Company, in the normal conduct of its business, has entered into partnership
arrangements, referred to as "joint ventures," for certain construction and real
estate development projects. Each of the joint venture participants is usually
committed to supply a predetermined percentage of capital, as required, and to
share in a predetermined percentage of the income or loss of the project.
Summary financial information (in thousands) for construction and real estate
joint ventures accounted for on the equity method for the three years ended
December 31, 1999 follows:

The Company has a centralized cash management arrangement with two construction
joint ventures in which it is the sponsor. Under this arrangement, excess cash
is controlled by the Company; cash is made available to meet the individual
joint venture requirements, as needed; and interest income is credited to the
ventures at competitive market rates. In addition, certain joint ventures
sponsored by other contractors, in which the Company participates, distribute
cash at the end of each quarter to the participants who will then return these
funds at the beginning of the next quarter. Of the total cash advanced at the
end of 1999 ($14.1 million) and 1998 ($17.3 million), approximately $12.4
million in 1999 and $13.2 million in 1998 was deemed to be temporary.

============== =============
Payments required under these obligations amount to approximately $32,158 in
2000, $41,077 in 2001 and $14 in 2002.
Effective January 17, 1997, and amended at various dates through January 2000,
the Company is party to an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with a group of
major U.S. banks. This Credit Agreement with original commitments totaling
$129.5 million has been reduced to commitments of $73.0 million as of December
31, 1999 as a result of scheduled amortization payments and proceeds from sales
of real estate. The expiration of the Credit Agreement is January 2, 2001.
The Credit Agreement provides that the Company can choose from three interest
rate alternatives including a prime-based rate, as well as other interest rate
options based on LIBOR (London Inter-Bank Offered Rate) or participating bank
certificate of deposit rates.
The Agreement provides for, among other things, maintaining specified working
capital and tangible net worth levels, minimum operating cash flow levels, as
defined, limitations on indebtedness and certain limitations on investment in
real estate development projects and future cash dividends. The Agreement also
provides that collateral shall consist of all available assets not included as
collateral in other agreements and for the continuation of the suspension of
payment of the 53 1/8 cent per share quarterly dividend on the Company's
Depositary Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Shares (see Note 8) until certain
financial criteria are met.
In addition to a fee, the Bank Group received Stock Purchase Warrants as partial
compensation for the credit facility enabling the participating banks to
purchase up to 420,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock, $1.00 par value, at
$8.30 per share, the average fair market value of the stock for the five
business days prior to the January 17, 1997 closing, at any time during the ten
year period ended January 17, 2007. The grant date present value of the Stock
Purchase Warrants ($2,233,000) was calculated using the Black-Scholes option
pricing model and was accounted for by an increase in Stockholders' Equity, with
the offset being a valuation account netted against the related Revolving Credit
Loans. The valuation account was amortized over the approximate three-year term
of the Credit Agreement on the straight-line method, with the offsetting charge
being to Other Income (Expense), Net. The balance was fully amortized at
December 31, 1999.

For the Years Ended December 31, 1999, 1998 & 1997 (continued)
[4] Long-term Debt (continued)
Subsequent to December 31, 1999, the Company has reached an agreement in
principle with its Bank Group to extend and restructure the Revolving Credit
Agreement into a revolving credit facility and a $35 million term loan ("New
Credit Agreement"). Amortization of the term loan will total $15 million in
2000, and $10 million annually in 2001 and 2002. The revolving credit facility
may be as high as $35 million at closing but must be reduced to $21 million by
April 20, 2000. The revolving credit facility will be reduced by the net
proceeds from certain real estate sales, with the remaining balance due January
21, 2003. Up to $12 million of the unborrowed revolving commitment will be
available for letters of credit. The New Credit Agreement otherwise has
generally similar terms to that of the existing facility. The New Credit
Agreement will close simultaneously with the new equity transaction (see Note
15). Amortization under the current Credit Agreement has been amended to conform
to that of the New Credit Agreement.
[5] Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109. This
standard determines deferred income taxes based on the estimated future tax

[5] Income Taxes (continued)
A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets to a level
which, more likely than not, will be realized. The ultimate realization of
deferred tax assets is dependent on the generation of future taxable income
during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. The
net deferred tax assets reflect management's estimate of the amount which will
be realized from future taxable income which can be predicted with reasonable
certainty.
As a result of not providing any federal income tax benefit in 1996 and only a
partial benefit in 1995, earnings benefited in 1998 and 1997 by approximately
$4.3 million and $2.1 million, respectively, by not having to provide for any
federal income tax. Approximately $142 million of future pretax earnings could
benefit from minimal, if any, federal tax provisions.
At December 31, 1999, the Company has unused tax credits and net operating loss
carryforwards for income tax reporting purposes which expire as follows (in
thousands):
Unused Capital Net Operating
Investment Loss Loss
Tax Credits Carryforward Carryforwards

Net operating loss carryforwards and unused tax credits may be limited in the
event of certain changes in ownership interests of significant stockholders. As
explained in Note 15, the additional equity generated from the new equity
transaction is not expected to give rise to such a limitation. In addition,
approximately $1.4 million of the net operating loss carryforwards can only be
used against the taxable income of the corporation in which the loss was
recorded for tax and financial reporting purposes.

[7] Redeemable Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock
At a special stockholders' meeting on January 17, 1997, the Company's
stockholders approved two proposals that allowed the Company to close a new
equity transaction with a private investor group led by Richard C. Blum &
Associates, L.P. The transaction included, among other things, classification by
the Board of Directors of 500,000 shares of Preferred Stock of the Company as
Redeemable Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per
share, (the "Series B Preferred Stock"), issuance of 150,150 shares of Series B
Preferred Stock at $200 per share (or $30 million) to the investor group, (with
the remainder of the shares set aside for possible future payment-in-kind
dividends to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock), amendments to the
Company's By-Laws that redefined the Executive Committee and added certain
powers (generally financial in nature), including the power to give overall
direction to the Company's Chief Executive Officer, appointment of three new
members, recommended by the investor group, to the Board of Directors, and
appointment of these same new directors to constitute a majority of the
Executive Committee referred to above. Tutor-Saliba Corporation, a corporation
controlled by the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company, who is also
a member of the Executive Committee, is a participant in certain construction
joint ventures with the Company (see Note 14 "Related Party Transactions").
Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock are generally payable at an annual
rate of 7% when paid in cash and 10% of the liquidation preference of $200.00
per share when paid in-kind with Series B Preferred Stock compounded on a
quarterly basis. According to the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock, it (i)
ranks junior in cash dividend and liquidation preference to the $21.25
Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock and senior to Common Stock, (ii)
provides that no cash dividends will be paid on any shares of Common Stock
except for certain limited dividends beginning in 2001, (iii) is convertible
into shares of Common Stock at an initial conversion price of approximately
$9.68 per share (equivalent to 3,101,571 shares on January 17, 1997), (iv) has
the same voting rights as shareholders of Common Stock immediately equal to the
number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series B Preferred Stock can be
converted, (v) generally has a liquidation preference of $200 per share of
Series B Preferred Stock, (vi) is optionally redeemable by the Company after
three years at a redemption price equal to the liquidating value per share and
higher amounts if a Special Default, as defined, has occurred, (vii) is
mandatorily redeemable by the Company if a Special Default has occurred and a
holder of the Series B Preferred Stock requests such a redemption, (viii) is
mandatorily redeemable by the Company for approximately one-third of the shares
still outstanding on January 17, 2005 and one-third of the remaining shares in
each of the next two years.
The initial proceeds ($30,030,000) received upon the issuance of 150,150 Series
B Preferred Shares were reduced by related expenses of approximately $3.5
million. Due to the redeemable feature of the Series B Preferred Stock, this

Subject to and concurrent with the closing of the new equity transaction
described in Note 15, the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock, which has a
current accreted face amount of approximately $40 million as of December 15,
1999, have agreed to convert their shares into shares of common stock, $1.00 par
value, of the Company at $5.50 per share of common stock.
[8] Capitalization
(a) $21.25 Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock ("$21.25 Preferred
Stock")
In June 1987, net proceeds of approximately $23,631,000 were received
from the sale of 1,000,000 Depositary Convertible Exchangeable Preferred
Shares (each Depositary Share representing ownership of 1/10 of a share
of $21.25 Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock, $1 par value) at a
price of $25 per Depositary Share. Annual dividends are $2.125 per
Depositary Share and are cumulative. Generally, the liquidation
preference value is $25 per Depositary Share plus any accumulated and
unpaid dividends. The Preferred Stock of the Company, as evidenced by
ownership of Depositary Shares, is convertible at the option of the
holder, at any time, into Common Stock of the Company at a conversion
price of $37.75 per share of Common Stock. The Preferred Stock is
redeemable at the option of the Company at any time at $25 per share
plus any unpaid dividends. The Preferred Stock is also exchangeable at
the option of the Company, in whole but not in part, on any dividend
payment date into 8 1/2% convertible subordinated debentures due in 2012
at a rate equivalent to $25 principal amount of debentures for each
Depositary Share. In conjunction with the covenants of the Company's
Amended Revolving Credit Agreement (see Note 4), the Company was
required to suspend the payment of quarterly dividends on its $21.25
Preferred Stock (equivalent to $2.125 per Depositary Share) until
certain financial criteria are met. Therefore, the dividends on the
$21.25 Preferred Stock have not been declared since 1995 (although they
have been fully accrued due to the "cumulative" feature of the Preferred
Stock). The aggregate amount of dividends in arrears is approximately
$9,030,000 at December 31, 1999, which represents approximately $90.30
per share of Preferred Stock or approximately $9.03 per Depositary Share
and is included in "Other Liabilities" (long-term) in the accompanying
Consolidated Balance Sheet. Under the terms of the Preferred Stock, the
holders of the Depositary Shares were entitled to elect two additional
Directors since dividends had been deferred for more than six quarters
and they did so at both the May 14, 1998 and the May 13, 1999 Annual
Meetings.

(b) Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock
Under the terms of the Company's Shareholder Rights Plan, as amended,
the Board of Directors of the Company declared a distribution on
September 23, 1988 of one Preferred Stock purchase right (a "Right") for
each outstanding share of Common Stock. Under certain circumstances,
each Right will entitle the holder thereof to purchase from the Company
one one-hundredth of a share (a "Unit") of Series A Junior Participating
Cumulative Preferred Stock, $1 par value (the "Preferred Stock"), at an
exercise price of $100 per Unit, subject to adjustment. The Rights will
not be exercisable or transferable apart from the Common Stock until the
earlier to occur of (i) 10 days following a public announcement that a
person or group (an "Acquiring Person") has acquired 20% or more of the
Company's outstanding Common Stock (the "Stock Acquisition Date"), (ii)
10 business days following the announcement by a person or group of an
intention to make an offer that would result in such persons or group
becoming an Acquiring Person or (iii) the declaration by the Board of
Directors that any person is an "Adverse Person", as defined under the
Plan. The Rights will not have any voting rights or be entitled to
dividends.
Upon the occurrence of a triggering event as described above, each Right
will be entitled to that number of Units of Preferred Stock of the
Company having a market value of two times the exercise price of the
Right. If the Company is acquired in a merger or 50% or more of its
assets or earning power is sold, each Right will be entitled to receive
Common Stock of the acquiring company having a market value of two times
the exercise price of the Right. Rights held by such a person or group
causing a triggering event may be null and void. The Rights are
redeemable at $.02 per Right by the Board of Directors at any time prior
to the occurrence of a triggering event.
On January 17, 1997, the Board of Directors amended the Company's
Shareholder Rights Plan to (i) permit the acquisition of the Series B
Preferred Stock by certain investors (see Note 7 above), any additional
Preferred Stock issued as a dividend thereon, any Common Stock issued
upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock and certain other events
without triggering the distribution of the Rights; (ii) lower the
threshold for the occurrence of a Stock Acquisition Date from 20% to
10%; and (iii) extend the expiration date of the Plan from September 23,
1998 to January 21, 2007.
Subject to and concurrent with the closing of the new equity transaction
described in Note 15, the Board of Directors has voted to amend the
Company's Shareholder Rights Plan to permit the sale of 9,411,765 shares
of the Company's common stock, $1.00 par value, to the new investors at
$4.25 per share (or $40 million) and certain other events without
triggering the distribution of the Rights.
(c) ESOT Related Obligations
In July 1989, the Company sold 262,774 shares of its $1 par value Common
Stock, previously held in treasury, to its Employee Stock Ownership
Trust ("ESOT") for $9,000,000. The ESOT borrowed the funds via a
placement of 8.24% Senior Unsecured Notes ("Notes") guaranteed by the
Company. The Notes were payable in 20 equal semi-annual installments of
principal and interest commencing in January 1990. The Company's annual
contribution to the ESOT, plus any dividends accumulated on the
Company's Common Stock held by the ESOT, were used to repay the Notes.
Since the Notes were guaranteed by the Company, they were included in
"Long-Term Debt" with an offsetting reduction in "Stockholders' Equity"
in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The amount included in "Long-Term
Debt" was reduced and "Stockholders' Equity" reinstated as the Notes
were paid by the ESOT (see Note 4). The final repayment of the Notes was
made in 1999 and, accordingly, such amount is classified in "Current
maturities of long-term debt" as of December 31, 1998.

[9] Stock Options
At December 31, 1999 and 1998, 481,610 shares of the Company's authorized but
unissued Common Stock were reserved for issuance to employees under its 1982
Stock Option Plan. Options are granted at fair market value on the date of
grant, as defined, and generally become exercisable in two equal annual
installments on the second and third anniversary of the date of grant and expire
eight years from the date of grant. Options for 184,000 shares of Common Stock
granted in 1992 become exercisable on March 31, 2001 if the Company achieves a
certain profit target in the year 2000; may become exercisable earlier if
certain interim profit targets are achieved; and to the extent not exercised,

[10] Employee Benefit Plans
The Company and its U.S. subsidiaries have a defined benefit plan that covers
its executive, professional, administrative and clerical employees, subject to
certain specified service requirements. The plan is noncontributory and benefits
are based on an employee's years of service and "final average earnings", as
defined. The plan provides reduced benefits for early retirement and takes into
account offsets for social security benefits. All employees are vested after 5
years of service. Pension and other benefit plan disclosure as presented below
was determined in accordance with SFAS No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures About
Pension and Other Post-Retirement Benefits".

The Company also has an unfunded supplemental retirement plan for certain
employees whose benefits under the defined benefit plan described above are
reduced because of compensation limitations under federal tax laws. Pension
expense for this plan was $0.3 million in 1999 and $0.2 million in both 1998 and
1997. At December 31, 1999, the projected benefit obligation was $2.0 million. A
corresponding accumulated benefit obligation of $1.4 million at December 31,
1999 and $1.3 million at December 31, 1998, which approximate the amount of
vested benefits, have been recognized as a liability in the consolidated balance
sheets.
The Company also has a contributory Section 401(k) plan and a noncontributory
Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") which cover its executive, professional,
administrative and clerical employees, subject to certain specified service
requirements. Under the terms of the Section 401(k) plan, the provision, which
averaged $0.2 million for each of the three years ended December 31, 1999, is
based on a specified percentage of profits, subject to certain limitations.
Contributions to the related ESOT, which averaged $1.3 million for each of the
three years ended December 31, 1999, are determined by the Board of Directors
and may be paid in cash or shares of the Company's Common Stock. In accordance
with the provisions of the ESOP and effective as of December 31, 1999, the Board
of Directors of the Company approved the termination of the ESOP and the
distribution of all remaining shares of common stock of the Company held by the
ESOT to the ESOP participants in 2000.
In addition, the Company has an incentive compensation plan for key employees
which is generally based on achieving certain levels of profit within their
respective business units.
The Company also contributes to various multi-employer union retirement plans
under collective bargaining agreements which provide retirement benefits for
substantially all of its union employees. The aggregate amounts provided in
accordance with the requirements of these plans were $5.4 million in 1999, $4.9
million in 1998 and $4.4 million in 1997. The Multi-employer Pension Plan
Amendments Act of 1980 defines certain employer obligations under multi-employer
plans. Information regarding union retirement plans is not available from plan
administrators to enable the Company to determine its share of unfunded vested
liabilities.
[11] Contingencies and Commitments
All contingencies and commitments previously related to Rincon Center, a real
estate development joint venture in which the Company's wholly-owned real estate
subsidiary was the managing general partner, were satisfactorily resolved in
connection with the disposition of this property during 1999 (see Note 2).
During 1997, a construction joint venture, in which the Company is a 50%
participant, entered into a $5 million line of credit, secured by the joint
venture's accounts receivable. The line of credit is available for the duration
of the joint venture and is guaranteed by the Company on a joint and several
basis. As of December 31, 1999, $3.1 million was outstanding under the line.
On July 30, 1993, the U.S. District Court (D.C.), in a preliminary opinion,
upheld terminations for default on two adjacent contracts for subway
construction between Mergentime-Perini, under two joint ventures, and the
Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority ("WMATA") and found the
Mergentime Corporation, Perini Corporation and the Insurance Company of North
America, the surety, jointly and severally liable to WMATA for damages in the
amount of $16.5 million, consisting primarily of excess reprocurement costs to
complete the projects. Many issues were left partially or completely unresolved
by the opinion, including substantial joint venture claims against WMATA. As a
result of developments in the case during the third quarter of 1995, the Company
established a reserve with respect to the litigation.
In July 1997, the remaining issues were ruled on by a successor judge, who
awarded approximately $4.3 million to the joint venture, thereby reducing the
net amount payable to approximately $12.2 million. The joint venture appealed
the decision. As a result of the decision, there was no additional impact on the
Company's Statement of Operations because of the reserve provided in prior
years.

[11] Contingencies and Commitments (continued)
On February 16, 1999, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia
vacated the April 1995 and July 1997 Orders and remanded the case back to the
successor judge with instructions for the successor judge to consider certain
post-trial motions to the same extent an original judge would have, and to make
findings and conclusions regarding the unresolved issues, giving appropriate
consideration to whether or not witnesses must be recalled. During 1999 a new
successor judge was appointed. Based on the suggestion of the successor judge,
the parties have agreed to participate in non-binding mediation. If the parties
do not agree to a settlement based on the mediation process or otherwise, a
final judgement will be entered by the District Court upon the completion of
these Appeals Court-directed procedures. The actual funding of net damages, if
any, will be deferred until the litigation process is complete.
Contingent liabilities also include liability of contractors for performance and
completion of both company and joint venture construction contracts. In
addition, the Company is a defendant in various lawsuits, arbitration and
alternative dispute resolution ("ADR") proceedings. In the opinion of
management, the resolution of these proceedings will not have a material effect
on the results of operation or financial condition as reported in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements.

[13] Business Segments
Business segment information presented below was determined in accordance with
SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information".
The Company is currently engaged in the construction business. As discussed in
Note 2, effective June 30, 1999 the Company adopted a plan to withdraw
completely from the real estate development business and to wind down the
operations of the Company's real estate development subsidiary. The Company
provides general contracting, construction management and design-build services
to private clients and public agencies throughout the United States and selected
overseas locations. The Company's construction business involves two basic
segments: building and civil. The building operation services both private
clients and public agencies from regional offices located in Boston, Phoenix,
Las Vegas, Detroit and Atlantic City and includes a broad range of building
construction projects, such as hotels, casinos, health care, correctional
facilities, sports complexes, residential, commercial, civic, cultural and
educational facilities. The civil operation is focused on public civil work in
the East and selectively in other geographic locations and includes large,
ongoing urban infrastructure repair and replacement projects such as highway and
bridge rehabilitation, mass transit projects and waste water treatment
facilities. During 1998 and 1999, the Company's chief operating decision making
group consisted of the Chairman, the President & Chief Executive Officer, the
President of Perini Building Company and the President of Perini Civil
Construction which decided how to allocate resources and assess performance of
the business segments. Generally, the Company evaluates performance of its
operating segments on the basis of pre-tax profit and cash flow. The accounting
policies applied by each of the segments are the same as those described in the
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (see Note 1). The following tables
set forth certain business and geographic segment information relating to the
Company's operations for the three years ended December 31, 1999 (in thousands):

[13] Business Segments (continued)
* In all years, consists of corporate general and administrative expenses.
** In all years, corporate assets consist principally of cash, cash
equivalents, marketable securities, other investments available for
general corporate purposes, and net assets from discontinued operations.
In 1999, revenues from one customer of the building segment totaled
approximately $148 million of consolidated revenues. Also in 1999, revenues from
various agencies of both the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the City of New
York in the civil segment totaled approximately $167 million and $118 million,
respectively, of consolidated revenues. In 1998, revenues from one customer of
the building segment totaled approximately $330 million of consolidated
revenues. Also in 1998, revenues from various agencies of both the Commonwealth
of Massachusetts and the City of New York in the civil segment totaled
approximately $153 million and $115 million, respectively, of consolidated
revenues. In 1997, revenues from one customer of the building segment totaled
approximately $276 million of consolidated revenues. Also in 1997, revenues from
various agencies of both the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the City of New
York in the civil segment totaled approximately $141 million and $165 million,
respectively, of consolidated revenues.

Because a substantial portion of the Company's international revenues is derived
mainly from construction management services, long-lived assets outside the
United States are immaterial and therefore not presented here.
There have been no differences from the last annual report in the basis of
measuring segment profit or loss. There have been no material changes in the
amount of assets since the last annual report, except for the breakout between
segments and the negative impact on total assets in 1999 caused by the estimated
loss on disposal of the real estate business segment.

[14] Related Party Transactions
Effective with the issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock described in Note 7
above, the Company entered into an agreement with Tutor-Saliba Corporation
("TSC"), a California corporation engaged in the construction industry, and
Ronald N. Tutor, Chief Executive Officer and sole stockholder of TSC, to provide
certain management services, as defined. At January 17, 1997, TSC held and still
holds 351,318 shares of the Company's $1.00 par value Common Stock which
currently represents an approximate 6.2% interest, and participates in joint
ventures with the Company, the Company's share of which contributed $8.6
million, $40.4 million and $113.6 million to the Company's consolidated revenues
in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Mr. Tutor was appointed as one of the
three new directors in accordance with the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock
transaction, a member of the Executive Committee of the Board and, during 1997,
acting Chief Operating Officer of the Company. Effective January 1, 1998, Mr.
Tutor was elected Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors and effective May 13,
1999 was elected Chairman of the Board of Directors. Compensation for the
management services consists of a monthly payment of $12,500 to TSC and options
granted to Mr. Tutor to purchase 150,000 shares of the Company's $1.00 par value
Common Stock at fair market value (which are included as part of the 225,000
options granted in 1997 as described in Note 9) and additional options granted
to Mr. Tutor to purchase 75,000 shares of the Company's $1.00 par value Common
Stock at fair market value, of which options to acquire 45,000 shares were
granted in December 1998 and the remaining options to acquire 30,000 shares were
granted effective in early 1999 (see Note 9).
During 1997, the Company, with the approval of its Board of Directors,
consummated a transaction whereby it sold its 20% interest in two joint ventures
to TSC, the sponsoring partner, for a negotiated price of $4.5 million,
representing the Company's share of the total forecasted profit less a discount
of approximately 7%. Since one project was approximately 24% complete and the
other project was 57% complete as of December 31, 1997, the impact of this
transaction was to accelerate approximately $3.2 million of contract profits and
receipt of the related cash into 1997.
The new investors that are planning to invest $40 million of new equity in the
Company as described in Note 15 consist of Tutor-Saliba Corporation (see above),
O&G Industries, Inc. ("O&G"), a participant in certain construction joint
ventures with the Company, and National Union Fire Insurance Company of
Pittsburgh, Pa., a wholly-owned subsidiary of American International Group, Inc.
("AIG"), a provider of insurance and insurance related services to the Company.
Each of the new investors will be entitled to appoint a member to the Company's
Board of Directors. O&G currently holds 150,000 shares of the Company's common
stock, $1.00 par value, and participates in joint ventures with the Company, the
Company's share of which contributed $4.2 million, $39.4 million and $121.3
million to the Company's consolidated revenues in 1999, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. Payments to AIG for insurance and insurance related services
approximated $5.2 million in 1999, $4.8 million in 1998 and $5.9 million in
1997.
[15] Subsequent Events
New Equity
On February 5, 2000, the Company entered into a definitive Securities Purchase
Agreement ("Purchase Agreement") with Tutor-Saliba Corporation, a company
controlled by Ronald N. Tutor, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the
Company, O&G Industries, Inc., and National Union Fire Insurance Company of
Pittsburgh, Pa., a wholly-owned subsidiary of American International Group,
Inc., (collectively, the "New Investors"), whereby the New Investors have agreed
to purchase 9,411,765 shares of common stock at $4.25 per share for an aggregate
amount of $40 million ("the Transaction"). These funds would be used to mitigate
the continuing effects of the Company's negative net worth on its business and
financial condition and to provide additional working capital and liquidity for
its ongoing core construction operations. The Company's net worth became
negative as of June 30, 1999 due to the $99.3 million non-cash provision for
estimated loss on the disposal of the Company's real estate development business
segment as described in more detail under "Discontinued Operations" in Note 2.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Years Ended December 31, 1999, 1998 & 1997 (continued)
[15] Subsequent Events (continued)
The Transaction is subject to, among other things, the following events or
approvals:
(i) Approval by a majority of the shareholders entitled to vote and
not affiliated or associated with the New Investors of (a) the
Transaction as described in the Purchase Agreement and (b) an
increase in the number of authorized shares of the Company's
Common Stock to at least as many shares as are required to
consummate the Transaction;
(ii) Agreement by all of the holders of the Company's Series B
Preferred Stock, which has a current accreted face amount of
approximately $40 million as of December 15, 1999, (see Note 7),
to convert their securities into shares of $1.00 par value
common stock of the Company at $5.50 per share of common stock;
and
(iii) Certain other conditions, including the completion of due
diligence.
If the Transaction is consummated, the shares of common stock held by the New
Investors and the former holders of the Series B Preferred Stock will
approximate 42.0% and 32.5% of the Company's voting rights, respectively.
If this Transaction had been closed on December 31, 1999, the pro forma impact
on the December 31, 1999 balance sheet would have been as follows (in millions):
As Reported Pro Forma
------------ ------------
Working Capital $ 48.4 $ 75.4
Long-term Debt $ 41.1 $ 30.6
Series B Preferred Stock $ 37.7 $ -
Stockholders' Equity (Deficit) $ (36.6) $ 38.6
Total Assets $ 275.5 $ 275.5
The Company's Common Stock, $1.00 par value, issued in connection with the above
Transactions will initially be restricted in that it may not be sold or
otherwise disposed of except pursuant to the terms of a shareholders' agreement
between and among the New Investors, the former owners of the Series B Preferred
Stock and the Company for a period of time, generally six years from the date of
the Transaction being consummated.
If the Transaction is not consummated, management's intent would be to
renegotiate the terms of its credit facility and continue to pay the in-kind
dividend on the Series B Preferred Stock.
New Credit Agreement
Subject to and concurrent with the closing of the new equity transaction
referred to above, the Company's Bank Group has agreed in principle to extend
and restructure its Revolving Credit Agreement (see Note 4).

We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Perini Corporation
