EMCOR GROUP, INC. REPORTS RECORD 2006 FOURTH QUARTER RESULTS
- Annual Revenues Increase 6.9% to Record $5.02 Billion -
- Annual Operating Income Rises 45.9%, Net Income Up Over 44% -
- Year End Backlog at Record $3.50 Billion -
NORWALK, CONNECTICUT, February 22, 2007 - EMCOR Group, Inc. (NYSE: EME) today
reported results for the fourth quarter and full year periods ended December 31,
2006. The Company's financial results for the prior year periods have been
adjusted to reflect its 2-for-1 stock split, effective February 10, 2006.
For the 2006 fourth quarter, revenues increased 11.9% to $1.38 billion from
$1.23 billion in the fourth quarter of 2005. Selling, general and administrative
expenses were $126.6 million in the 2006 fourth quarter, compared to $124.9
million in the fourth quarter of 2005. As a percentage of revenues, selling,
general and administrative expense declined to 9.2% of revenues from 10.1% of
revenues in the year ago period. Fourth quarter 2006 operating income rose 40.5%
to $43.8 million, or 3.2% of revenues from $31.2 million, or 2.5% of revenue in
the year ago period.
For the 2006 fourth quarter, net income rose 108.0% to $40.2 million, or $1.22
per diluted share, from $19.3 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, in the fourth
quarter of 2005.
Included in the Company's results for the fourth quarter of 2006 are
restructuring expenses before tax of $1.0 million, or $0.02 per diluted share
after tax, and a $14.2 million income tax benefit resulting from the reversal of
valuation allowances and the reversal of income tax reserves, or $0.44 per
diluted share. Also included in the Company's results for the 2006 fourth
quarter is an after-tax expense related to the adoption of FAS 123(R)
(Share-Based Payment) of $0.3 million, or $0.01 per diluted share which was
absent from the year ago period.
For the year ended December 31, 2006, revenues rose 6.9% to $5.02 billion from
$4.70 billion in 2005. Operating income for the 2006 full year period was $118.0
million, an increase of 45.9% over operating income of $80.9 million in 2005. As
a percentage of revenues, operating income increased to 2.4% from 1.7% of
revenues a year ago.
EMCOR Announces 2006 Fourth Quarter Results Page 2
Net income for the 2006 full year period totaled $86.6 million, or $2.65 per
diluted share. The Company's results for the 2006 full year period include
restructuring expenses of $1.6 million, or $0.03 per diluted share after tax, a
loss from discontinued operations of $0.6 million, or $0.02 per diluted share
after tax, a $14.2 million income tax benefit resulting from the reversal of
valuation allowances and the reversal of income tax reserves, or $0.44 per
diluted share, and after-tax expenses related to the Company's adoption of FAS
123(R) of $2.4 million, or $0.07 per diluted share. The effective income tax
rate, excluding the benefit resulting from income tax reserve adjustments, was
40% for 2006 compared to 38% for 2005.
Net income for the 2005 full year period was $60.0 million, or $1.89 per diluted
share, and included an income tax benefit of $17.6 million, or $0.55 per diluted
share, for income tax reserve adjustments.
When the 2006 income tax benefits of $14.2 million and the 2005 income tax
benefits of $17.6 million are excluded, which the Company believes better
reflects year to year comparability, earnings per diluted share from continuing
operations for the 2006 full year period would have been $2.23 versus $1.37 in
2005, an increase of 62.8%.
As of December 31, 2006, total backlog was a record $3.50 billion, an increase
of 26.7% over backlog of $2.76 billion at the same time last year, and higher
than backlog levels of $3.40 billion reported at the end of the 2006 third
quarter. Private sector commercial and hospitality backlog represented 56% of
total backlog at the end of 2006, versus 40% on December 31, 2005 and 54% at
September 30, 2006, reflecting continued strength in demand for the Company's
services in these markets.
Frank T. MacInnis, Chairman and CEO of EMCOR Group, commented, "Our 2006 fourth
quarter performance was one of the best in EMCOR Group's history and capped an
outstanding year for the Company. Demand for our services continued to be
strong, driving excellent revenue growth and when combined with our commitment
to project selectivity and cost management, the Company achieved our strongest
earnings quarter in nearly four years. Cash flow from operations for the year
was also strong as the Company generated $209.3 million, a testament to the
health of our business and our focus on balance sheet management."
Mr. MacInnis continued, "Performance from our U.S. mechanical and facilities
services business segments was particularly strong during the fourth quarter. In
our U.S. mechanical segment, revenues rose nearly 30% versus last year's fourth
quarter and profitability improved significantly. Our facilities services group
turned in another quarter of strong performance, as it continues to gain
traction in the marketplace. In the fourth quarter of 2006, revenue growth in
this segment accelerated by nearly 24% versus last year's fourth quarter, driven
by demand for both site-based and mobile services and by a company acquired in
the fourth quarter of 2005. As facilities become increasinglycomplex and their
energy demands and related costs continue to grow, companies have an increasing
need to optimize the performance of their assets through outsourced facilities
management. With investments in our service delivery infrastructure, EMCOR has
positioned itself as a leader in the facilities management industry, and has
seen steady growth in revenue and operating margin in this segment since its
inception. The prospects for this business remain as strong as ever, and EMCOR
Group remains at the forefront of this rapidly developing sector."
EMCOR Announces 2006 Fourth Quarter Results Page 3
Mr. MacInnis concluded, "2006 was a year of outstanding achievement for EMCOR
Group. We saw the benefits of our strategy of refocusing our efforts on the
private sector and commercial marketplace result in strong financial
performance. We continued to enhance our position as a leader in facilities
services, and maintained one of the strongest balance sheets in the industry.
For 2007, we expect to continue our strong performance, as demand across our
markets remains high. We will also continue our focus on execution at the
highest levels of efficiency, and utilize our financial strength to enhance the
size and scope of our business. Our record backlog is well balanced across the
industries we service and weighted towards higher margin private sector
commercial work, for which we continue to see robust demand. As a result, based
on current market conditions we currently expect revenues for 2007 of between
$5.3 billion and $5.5 billion, resulting in diluted earnings per share for the
year of between $2.45 and $2.80. This assumes a tax rate for 2007 of 41%,
compared to the 40% rate seen in 2006."
