"I am encouraged by the significant number of new awards we secured in recent months across diverse markets, including gas-fueled and nuclear power, refining, data centers, mining, and uranium enrichment. Our pipeline of work is expanding, and we see compelling opportunities across each of our core markets," said Jim Breuer, Fluor's Chief Executive Officer. "The strong growth potential of our business is not impacted by the project charge in the quarter. With a disciplined project delivery model and strong liquidity, we are positioned to convert our growing pipeline, expand margins, and deliver sustained profitable growth."

Outlook

We are not providing forward-looking guidance for U.S. GAAP net earnings or U.S. GAAP earnings per share, or a quantitative reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA or adjusted EPS guidance, because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty all of the components required to provide such reconciliation without unreasonable efforts, which are uncertain and could have a material impact on GAAP reported results for the guidance period. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for additional information.

The company is narrowing its adjusted EBITDA guidance for 2026 from $525 - $585 million to $525 - $560 million. This revision to the upper end of our guidance reflects Q1 recognition of cost growth on a mining project in the Americas, and a temporary slowdown on another project due to Middle East geopolitical concerns. The rest of the overall business continues to deliver at or above expectations. Adjusted EBITDA guidance excludes items similar to those outlined in the reconciliation table at the end of this release.

Business Segments

Urban Solutions reported a segment profit of $6 million for the first quarter, compared to a profit of $70 million in the same period last year. These results reflect a $37 million impact due to increased costs on a mining project in the Americas. First quarter revenue rose to $2.4 billion from $2.2 billion a year ago. New awards for the quarter were $2.1 billion compared to $5.3 billion a year ago, when we recognized a large pharmaceutical award. Quarterly awards included an aluminum project in the Middle East, incremental work for a pharmaceutical facility and an infrastructure expansion on a mine in Chile. Ending backlog was $19 billion, slightly lower than $20.2 billion a year ago.

Energy Solutions delivered segment profit of $74 million in the first quarter, up from $47 million a year ago, primarily driven by recognition of favorable close out items on three projects. Revenue for the quarter declined to $703 million, compared to $1.2 billion in the prior year, reflecting reduced execution activity on several projects nearing completion. New awards in the quarter totaled $213 million, compared to $315 million for the first quarter of 2025. Ending backlog was $4.3 billion versus $6.2 billion a year ago, due to progress on several large projects, including at our JV in Mexico.

Mission Solutions reported a segment loss of $71 million in the first quarter versus a $5 million profit in the prior year period. Results were affected by $96 million triggered by the outcome of a court ruling on a lawsuit filed in 2013. Revenue decreased to $523 million from $597 million a year ago. New awards for the quarter totaled $332 million, including a significant FEED award for the Centrus uranium enrichment plant expansion. This compares to $164 million in awards during the first quarter of 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This news release contains discussions of consolidated segment profit (loss) and margin, adjusted net earnings (loss), adjusted EPS and adjusted EBITDA that are non-GAAP financial measures under SEC rules. Segment profit (loss) is calculated as revenue less cost of revenue and earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests. The company believes that segment profit (loss) provides a meaningful perspective on its business results as it is the aggregation of individual segment profit measures that the company utilizes to evaluate and manage its business performance. Adjusted net earnings (loss) is defined as net earnings (loss) from core operations excluding equity method earnings and the impacts of foreign exchange fluctuations, impairments and certain items that management believes are unrelated to actual normalized operational performance. Net earnings (loss) from core operations is net earnings (loss) attributable to Fluor excluding the results of our remaining Stork and AMECO equipment businesses that are no longer classified as discontinued operations but that continue to be marketed for sale or that have been sold. Adjusted EPS is defined as adjusted net earnings divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net earnings from operations before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), further adjusted by the same items excluded from adjusted net earnings. The company believes adjusted net earnings, adjusted EPS and adjusted EBITDA allow investors to evaluate the company's ongoing earnings on a normalized basis and make meaningful period-over-period comparisons. However, non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation from or a substitute for measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Reconciliations of consolidated segment profit (loss) adjusted net earnings, adjusted EPS and adjusted EBITDA to the most comparable GAAP measures are included in the press release tables. The company is unable to provide a reconciliation of its adjusted EPS and adjusted EBITDA guidance to the most comparable GAAP measure without unreasonable efforts because it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty all of the components required to provide such reconciliation, including the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations, which are uncertain and could have a material impact on GAAP reported results for the guidance period.
