Tutor Perini Reports Third Quarter Results

New awards of $1.1 billion in Q3 2017; YTD book-to-burn of 1.36

Backlog at $7.5 billion, up 12% Y/Y; Civil segment backlog up 54% Y/Y to a new record level

Cash Flow from Operations of $36.5 million in Q3 2017

LOS ANGELES – (BUSINESS WIRE) – November 9, 2017 – Tutor Perini Corporation (NYSE: TPC), a leading civil, building and specialty construction company, today reported results for the three months ended September 30, 2017. Revenue for the third quarter of 2017 was $1.2 billion compared to $1.3 billion for the third quarter of last year, as various Civil and Building segment projects are nearing completion and newer projects, particularly in the Civil segment, are earlier in their project life cycle and are not yet generating the higher levels of revenue that are expected later. Revenue for the third quarter of 2017 was also impacted by certain delays in the timing of new awards and project execution activities for previously awarded projects, which have shifted the timing of respective revenue contributions to 2018. Income from construction operations was $49.1 million for the third quarter of 2017 compared to $60.9 million for the comparable period last year. Net income attributable to Tutor Perini Corporation for the third quarter of 2017 was $23.6 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, compared to $28.8 million, or $0.57 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2016. Both income from construction operations and net income attributable to Tutor Perini Corporation were affected by the reduced volume.

Backlog as of September 30, 2017 was $7.5 billion, up 12% year-over-year and up 20% compared to the backlog as of December 31, 2016. Civil segment backlog climbed 54% year-over-year to $4.3 billion, a new record. New awards and adjustments to contracts in process totaled $1.1 billion in the third quarter of 2017 and $4.8 billion in the first nine months of 2017, well outpacing revenue for the nine-month period. The Civil segment was the major contributor to the new award activity during the first nine months of 2017, with civil awards comprising more than half of all new awards through September 30, 2017. Significant new awards in the third quarter of 2017 included a joint-venture tunnel project for a hydroelectric generating station in British Columbia, Canada, valued at $274 million, an electrical subcontract worth $154 million for a mass-transit project in California, a joint-venture bridge project in Minnesota, for which the Company’s portion is valued at $90 million, a U.S. embassy renovation project in Uruguay valued at $87 million, a military training range project in Guam worth $78 million, approximately $65 million for various smaller electrical projects in the southern United States, $52 million for three new mechanical projects in New York and $49 million of early scope tasks for a new technology office building in California, which is anticipated to be worth approximately $500 million once the remaining funding is released.

The Company generated $36.5 million of operating cash in the third quarter of 2017 and expects operating cash to be even stronger in the fourth quarter of 2017.

“We have continued to experience certain delays in the timing of new awards and project execution activities for previously awarded projects, which resulted in revenue and profit shortfalls in the quarter. On the positive side, we achieved improved operating margins for the quarter in both our Building and Specialty Contractors segments while maintaining good margin performance in our Civil segment,” said Ronald Tutor, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Tutor continued, “We also had solid operating cash flow, as well as good new award bookings that resulted in stable

backlog for the quarter. We continue to see an unprecedented and growing volume of prospective opportunities ahead, especially in our higher-margin Civil segment, with several large project award decisions expected in the near future. Consequently, our long-term outlook for growth and improved profitability remains very favorable.”

Outlook and Guidance

Based on the current backlog and market outlook, the Company is updating its guidance for 2017, with revenue now expected to be approximately $5.0 billion and diluted earnings per share (EPS) now expected in the range of $1.75 to $1.90.
