FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

COMFORT SYSTEMS USA REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2017 RESULTS

Houston, TX — April 26, 2017 — Comfort Systems USA, Inc. (NYSE: FIX), a leading provider of mechanical services including heating, ventilation, air conditioning, plumbing, piping and controls, today announced net income of $7.5 million or $0.20 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, as compared to $9.8 million or $0.26 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2016.  

Brian Lane, Comfort Systems USA’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We are pleased to report good first quarter results, especially given that first quarters are traditionally our seasonally lowest and most variable quarter.  Our first quarter results were reduced approximately $0.02 by an impairment of goodwill at one of our operating locations, and an additional $0.02 from acquisition costs and compensation costs associated with leadership changes.  Despite these expenses, and despite an increase in overhead from investments in sales and technology, we were able to achieve strong results although somewhat lower than the record first quarter results we achieved in 2016.”

The Company reported revenue of $380.6 million in the current quarter, as compared to $385.9 million in 2016.  The Company reported free cash flow of $5.3 million in the current quarter, as compared to $9.6 million in 2016.  Backlog as of March 31, 2017 was $863.0 million as compared to $763.4 million as of December 31, 2016 and $776.9 million as of March 31, 2016.

Mr. Lane continued, “We are encouraged by our cash flow as we are always pleased when we achieve positive cash flow in the first quarter.  We are especially encouraged by the sharp increase in backlog during the quarter.  Our backlog is a new record for Comfort Systems USA.”

Mr. Lane concluded, “After many years of diminished new construction markets, key markets have begun to show signs of improvement in new project bookings and prospects.  We are encouraged by underlying trends and we believe that we are well positioned for another very good year of earnings and cash flow in 2017.”
