NORWALK, CONNECTICUT, April 25, 2013 - EMCOR Group, Inc. (NYSE: EME) today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2013.
For the first quarter of 2013, net income attributable to EMCOR increased 11.1% to $30.2 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, from $27.1 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2012. Revenues increased 1.9% to $1.57 billion in the first quarter of 2013, compared to revenues of $1.54 billion in the year ago period.
Operating income for the first quarter of 2013 increased 11.0% to $51.3 million, or 3.3% of revenues, from $46.2 million, or 3.0% of revenues, in the first quarter of 2012. Operating income in the first quarter of 2013 included restructuring expenses of $1.4 million. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $138.5 million, or 8.8% of revenues, in the first quarter of 2013, compared to $134.5 million, or 8.7% of revenues, in the year ago period.
The Company's income tax rate as reported in the 2013 first quarter was 38.7%, compared to an income tax rate of 38.5% in the year ago period.
Backlog as of March 31, 2013 was $3.42 billion, an increase of 0.9% from $3.39 billion at the end of the 2012 first quarter. Domestically, continued strong growth in the industrial sector combined with growth in the transportation and hospitality/gaming sectors more than offset declines in the commercial, institutional, healthcare and water/wastewater sectors. Total industrial backlog increased $255 million, or 64.9%, from the year ago period to $648 million, an all-time record, while commercial backlog decreased $83 million, or 7.8%, from year ago levels to $983 million. Backlog growth in the Company's domestic operations more than offset a backlog decline of $51 million related to the Company's efforts to reduce its UK construction operations and focus on facilities services in that market. Backlog increased 1.3% from $3.37 billion on December 31, 2012.

EMCOR Reports First Quarter Results | Page 2 |
Tony Guzzi, President and Chief Executive Officer of EMCOR Group, commented, “We had a good start to 2013 as the Company realized revenue and backlog growth with expanded margins over a strong year ago performance in an environment that remains uncertain and challenging. The benefit of our balance across multiple market sectors and disciplines was clear in the quarter. Our strong results were driven primarily by excellent execution in our facilities services business, particularly in turnaround and maintenance services for our industrial clients, as well as by improvements in our mechanical services and commercial site-based services. Our domestic construction operations had a slow start to the year and in the UK, we continued to make progress on refocusing our operations to the facilities services market while downsizing our presence in the construction sector.”
Mr. Guzzi concluded, “Our first quarter results are in-line with our expectations, and we remain confident about our prospects for the remainder of 2013. We expect strong performance from our facilities services segment and our domestic construction businesses should follow a seasonal pattern, as performance builds during the year and we take advantage of specific project opportunities as they arise and remain focused on strong project execution. Overall, visibility remains somewhat limited, as corporate and government budgets remain unclear. While we have seen strength in certain areas of our business, the broader economic recovery continues to lag. Our focus therefore continues to be on exercising cost discipline while continuing to pursue opportunities to invest in our future growth.”
The Company noted that, based on the current size and mix of its backlog and assuming the continuation of current market conditions, it continues to expect to generate revenues in 2013 of approximately $6.5 billion, and diluted earnings per share of between $2.05 and $2.35.
