Press Release
May 7, 2019
DALLAS, May 7, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. (NYSE: JEC) today announced its financial results for the fiscal second quarter ended March 29, 2019.
Q2 2019 Highlights:
- Revenue of $3.1 billion1 grew 7.7% year-over-year and 8.7% on net revenue basis
- Operating profit up double-digit year-over-year; OP margin up more than 120 bps
- EPS from continuing operations of $0.82, affected by CH2M related restructuring and ECR divestiture costs
- Adjusted EPS from continuing operations of $1.19, up 37% year-over-year
- Backlog increased $1.5 billion, or 8% year-over-year to $20.7 billion
- Increasing fiscal 2019 adjusted pro forma EPS outlook to $4.45 - $4.85 (excluding full year ECR)2
Jacobs' Chair and CEO Steve Demetriou commented, "Our strong second quarter results include significant net revenue and operating profit growth versus the year-ago quarter, resulting in our adjusted operating profit margin increasing to 9% for the quarter. These results provide momentum to achieve our fiscal 2019 outlook. We view an ambitious strategic vision, consistent execution and disciplined capital allocation as paramount to driving continued shareholder value. We are creating a company like no other that is rooted in a culture of innovation focused on solving the world's most complex challenges."
Jacobs' CFO Kevin Berryman added, "Our second quarter results were solid across both lines of business resulting in strong overall revenue and profit growth. The CH2M integration is near complete and revenue synergies are accelerating in backlog, which is up 8% year-over-year. Our transformed portfolio is well aligned to long-term secular growth trends with an efficient cost structure that will drive enhanced operating leverage. We continue to expect $920 million to $1 billion in adjusted EBITDA3 for fiscal 2019 and we are raising our fiscal 2019 adjusted pro forma EPS outlook to $4.45 - $4.85."
The company announced the pending acquisition of The KeyW Holding Corporation on April 22, 2019 and closed the sale of its Energy, Chemicals and Resources (ECR) business on April 26, 2019.
1Reflects continuing operations as reported in accordance with GAAP.
2Reconciliation of the adjusted EPS outlook for the full fiscal year to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable efforts because the Company cannot predict with sufficient certainty all the components required to provide such reconciliation, including with respect to the costs and charges relating to transaction expenses, restructuring and integration to be incurred in fiscal 2019.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
In this press release, the Company has included certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined in Regulation G promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are net revenue, adjusted net earnings from continuing operations, adjusted EPS from continuing operations, adjusted operating profit margin and adjusted EBITDA.
Adjusted net earnings from continuing operations, adjusted EPS from continuing operations, and adjusted operating profit margin are non-GAAP financial measures that are calculated by (i) excluding the costs related to the 2015 restructuring activities, which included involuntary terminations, the abandonment of certain leased offices, combining operational organizations and the co-location of employees into other existing offices; and charges associated with our Europe, U.K. and Middle East region, which included write-offs on contract accounts receivable and charges for statutory redundancy and severance costs (collectively, the "2015 Restructuring and other items"); (ii) excluding costs and other charges associated with restructuring activities implemented in connection with the CH2M acquisition and the ECR divestiture, which included involuntary terminations, costs associated with co-locating Jacobs and CH2M offices, separating physical locations of ECR and continuing operations, costs and expenses of the Integration Management Office and Separation Management Office, including professional services and personnel costs, costs and charges associated with the divestiture of joint venture interests to resolve potential conflicts arising from the CH2M acquisition, expenses relating to certain commitments and contingencies relating to discontinued operations of the CH2M business, and similar costs and expenses (collectively referred to as the "Restructuring and other charges"); (iii) excluding transaction costs and other charges incurred in connection with closing of the CH2M acquisition and sale of the ECR business, including advisor fees, change in control payments, costs and expenses relating to the registration and listing of Jacobs stock issued in connection with the CH2M acquisition, and similar transaction costs and expenses (collectively referred to as "transaction costs"); (iv) excluding charges resulting from the revaluation of certain deferred tax assets/liabilities in connection with U.S. tax reform; (v) adding back depreciation and amortization relating to the ECR business of the Company that was ceased as a result of the application of held-for-sale accounting; (vi) adding back amortization of intangible assets; (vii) allocating to discontinued operations estimated stranded corporate costs that will be reimbursed or otherwise eliminated in connection with the sale of the ECR business; (viii) allocating to discontinued operations estimated interest expense relating to long-term debt that was paid down with the proceeds of the ECR sale; and (ix) the exclusion of a one-time favorable adjustment in the fiscal 2019 period associated with a reduction of deferred income taxes for permanently reinvested earnings from non-U.S. subsidiaries in connection with the sale of the ECR business. Adjustments to derive adjusted net earnings from continuing operations, adjusted EPS from continuing operations are calculated on an after-tax basis. Net revenue is calculated by excluding pass-through revenues of the BIAF line of business. We believe that net revenue, adjusted net earnings from continuing operations, adjusted EPS from continuing operations, adjusted operating profit margin and adjusted EBITDA are useful to management, investors and other users of our financial information in evaluating the Company's operating results and understanding the Company's operating trends by excluding or adding back the effects of the items described above, the inclusion or exclusion of which can obscure underlying trends. Additionally, management uses net revenue, adjusted net earnings from continuing operations, adjusted EPS from continuing operations, adjusted operating profit margin and adjusted EBITDA in its own evaluation of the Company's performance, particularly when comparing performance to past periods, and believes these measures are useful for investors because they facilitate a comparison of our financial results from period to period.
The Company provides non-GAAP measures to supplement U.S. GAAP measures, as they provide additional insight into the Company's financial results. However, non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation and are not in accordance with, or a substitute for, U.S. GAAP measures. In addition, other companies may define non-GAAP measures differently, which limits the ability of investors to compare non-GAAP measures of the Company to those used by our peer companies.
The following tables reconcile the components and values of U.S. GAAP revenue, net earnings from continuing operations, EPS from continuing operations, EPS and operating profit margin to the corresponding "adjusted" amounts. For the comparable periods presented below, such adjustments consist of amounts incurred in connection with the items described above. Amounts are shown in thousands, except for per-share data (note: earnings per share amounts may not add across due to rounding). Reconciliation of the adjusted EPS and adjusted EBITDA outlook for the full fiscal year to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable efforts because the Company cannot predict with sufficient certainty all the components required to provide such reconciliation.
