INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


To the Management and Stockholder of
Kvaerner North American Construction Ltd. and
Kvaerner North American Construction Inc.

We have audited the accompanying combined financial statements of Kvaerner North American Construction Ltd. (a Canada corporation) and selected net assets and operations of Kvaerner North American Construction, Inc., collectively the "Companies", which comprise the combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2013 and the related combined statements of operations, stockholder's equity, and cash flows for the nine months then ended, and the related notes to the combined financial statements.

Management's Responsibility for the Combined Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these combined financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of combined financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors' Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these combined financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the combined financial statements are free of material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the combined financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors' judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the combined financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditors consider internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the combined financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purposes of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant account estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the combined financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Companies as of September 30, 2013, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the nine months then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Sale of Companies

As discussed in Note 1 to the combined financial statements, effective December 20, 2013, all outstanding shares of KNAC Ltd. and certain net assets and operations of KNAC Inc. were sold to Matrix Service Company. These combined financial statements exclude the net assets retained by KNAC Inc. and the related results of operations and cash flows. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

SELECTED NET ASSETS AND OPERATIONS OF KVAERNER
NORTH AMERICAN CONSTRUCTION INC.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
($ IN THOUSANDS EXCEPT PER SHARE INFORMATION)

1.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, BASIS OF ACCOUNTING AND RELATED MATTERS

Organization and Nature of Operations ‑ The financial statements of the Companies include selected net assets and operations (see below) of Kvaerner North American Construction Inc. ("KNAC Inc."), which is incorporated in the state of Delaware, and the accounts of Kvaerner North American Construction Ltd. ("KNAC Ltd."), which is incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act. Both companies are ultimately owned by Kværner ASA (the "Parent"), a Norwegian company. Transactions between KNAC Inc. and KNAC Ltd. were insignificant during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

The Companies are engaged in providing construction and maintenance services to the aluminum, automotive, chemical, environmental, oil and gas, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, power, pulping, steel and miscellaneous light industries.

Effective December 20, 2013, the Parent sold certain assets and transferred certain liabilities of KNAC Inc., and sold all outstanding shares of stock of KNAC Ltd., to Matrix Service Company ("Matrix") in accordance with a Sale and Purchase Agreement dated December 8, 2013 (the "Agreement"). The assets and liabilities retained by KNAC Inc. relate to one contract that is in arbitration and other specific net assets excluded under the Agreement. These combined financial statements exclude the net assets retained by KNAC Inc. and the related results of operations and cash flows.

Use of Estimates ‑ The preparation of combined financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the combined financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates are involved in revenue recognition and the allowance for doubtful accounts and contingencies. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Comprehensive Income ‑ Comprehensive income consists of net income plus (minus) changes in other equity accounts. Other comprehensive loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 resulted from foreign currency translation adjustments related to converting KNAC Ltd. from Canadian dollars to U.S. dollars.

7




    
Revenue and Cost Recognition ‑ Earnings on fixed‑price contracts are recognized on the percentage of completion method of accounting in the ratio that costs incurred bear to total estimated costs. These estimates are based upon management's assessment of remaining costs to be incurred and could differ significantly from actual results. Contract costs include all direct material and direct labor costs and certain indirect costs related to contract performance. Precontract costs are expensed as incurred. Estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are recognized in the period in which they are identified. The Companies generally do not require security for contract receivables.

In computing earnings or losses on uncompleted contracts, the Companies consider extended work orders and other work performed in good faith towards completion of the projects. These revenues are reflected at their estimated realizability, net of any costs of collection.

Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts (an asset) represent costs and estimated profit thereon in excess of related contract billings on contracts in progress at the statement of assets and liabilities date. Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts (a liability) represent billings on contracts in excess of related contract costs and estimated profit thereon at the statement of assets and liabilities date. Billings are generally based on the terms of the contracts and the actual costs incurred at a given point in time. The Companies include these amounts in current assets or liabilities because their operating cycle for contracts is typically less than one year.

Revenues from time‑and‑material (T&M) contracts are recorded as costs are incurred and include estimated profit based on contractual mark‑ups.

The Companies received $104,685 of their revenues from four customers. Receivables from these customers (including net under/over billings) were $4,238 as of September 30, 2013.

Cash and Cash Equivalents ‑ For purposes of the combined statement of cash flows, the Companies consider all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Companies maintain, at financial institutions, cash and cash equivalents which may at times exceed federally insured amounts and which may at times significantly exceed the combined statement of assets and liabilities amount due to outstanding checks.

Accounts Receivable ‑ The Companies regularly extend credit to customers in the normal course of business based upon management's assessment of their creditworthiness. A valuation allowance is provided for those accounts for which collection is estimated as doubtful; uncollectible accounts are written off and charged against the allowance. Increases in the allowance are charged to selling, general and administrative expenses.

8





The allowance for doubtful accounts represents management's estimate of the net realizable value of receivables at September 30, 2013; it is at least reasonably possible that the assessment of net realizable value will be further revised in the near term and that actual results could differ from this estimate.

Property and Equipment ‑ Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are being depreciated over estimated useful lives ranging from 3 to 10 years on a straight‑line basis. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; renewals and betterments with a cost of $2,500 or greater and a useful life of one year or greater are capitalized. When property and equipment are sold, or otherwise disposed of, the asset and related accumulated depreciation accounts are relieved and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in earnings.

Investments in Joint Ventures ‑ Investments in joint ventures in which the Companies have greater than a 20% interest but do not exert control are accounted for using the equity method, unless the investee is considered to be a variable interest entity. Under this method, investments are carried at cost, adjusted for the Companies' proportionate share of the joint venture's undistributed earnings or losses and reduced for any distributions from the joint venture. At September 30, 2013, KNAC Ltd. held a non‑controlling 50% investment in a joint venture, which was not deemed to be a variable interest entity (see Note 5).

Investments in joint ventures in which the Companies exert control are consolidated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. At September 30, 2013, KNAC Inc. held a 65% interest in KVPB Power Partners ("KVPB"), a joint venture established to construct an electricity generating plant in Delaware under one customer contract. At September 30, 2013 this joint venture is consolidated in the KNAC Inc. financial statements due to the existence of control by the Company, and a noncontrolling equity interest of $425 is reflected in the Company's combined statement of equity. At September 30, 2013, cash includes $9,673 that was held by KVPB for that construction project.

Impairment of Long‑Lived Assets ‑ Management evaluates the valuation and depreciation, as applicable, of the Companies' various long‑lived assets. Management's evaluation considers both current and future levels of undiscounted cash flows generated by the related assets to determine when impairment may have occurred. Any write‑downs due to impairment are charged to operations when the impairment is identified. There were no impairments recognized during the period ended September 30, 2013.

Goodwill ‑ Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives to be assessed qualitatively each year in order to determine whether it is more likely than not that their fair values are less than their carrying amounts. If management deems it is more likely than not that fair values of the reporting units are less than carrying amounts, a two‑step quantitative impairment test shall be used to identify potential impairment

9





and measure the amount impairment losses to be recognized (if any). Based on its assessment of qualitative factors, management has determined that no impairment of its goodwill existed at September 30, 2013.

Income Taxes ‑ KNAC Inc. files on a consolidated basis with its parent and various affiliates for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and files separate or unitary state income tax returns. KNAC Ltd. files a separate Canadian tax return for federal and provincial tax purposes. Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of current taxes due plus deferred taxes related primarily to accrued liabilities, foreign interest paid to a related party and differences in the amount of depreciation and amortization taken for tax purposes. The deferred tax assets and/or liabilities represent future tax consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and/or liabilities are recovered or settled. Management believes that there is no liability related to uncertain tax positions at September 30, 2013. Years prior to 2010 are no longer open for examination by tax authorities.

Subsequent Events ‑ Subsequent events were evaluated by management through March 5, 2014, which is the date when the combined financial statements were available to be issued.

The purpose of this joint venture is to construct an electricity generating plant in Ontario, Canada under a construction agreement with one customer. The KNAC Ltd. investment in HHPP at September 30, 2013 was $1,338, which is composed of joint venture cash of $2,088 and an estimated warranty liability on the contract of $750. The net income of the joint venture was insignificant during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, KNAC Ltd. recognized revenue from services provided to the joint venture of approximately $4,040.

6.    LEASES

The Companies lease facilities under operating leases which expire at various times through May 2017. Rental expense was approximately $845 for the period ended September 30, 2013. The following represents the future minimum lease payments under operating leases at September 30, 2013:

7.    EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

KNAC Inc. sponsors a 401(k) savings plan that covers substantially all employees not covered by collective bargaining agreements. The Plan provided for employer matching contributions of 100% of the first 6% of employee compensation contributed. Contributions by KNAC Inc. for the period ended September 30, 2013 was $529.

The Company typically has several active discrete, but significant, construction and maintenance projects at any point in time. Accordingly, due to the nature of this business, the Company contributes to several multiemployer defined benefit pension plans under the terms of various collective‑bargaining agreements that cover union‑represented employees. The risks of participating in multiemployer plans differ from single‑employer plans in the following aspects:

*
Assets contributed to the multiemployer plan by one employer may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers.

*
If a participating employer stops contributing to the plan, the unfunded obligation of the plan may be borne by the remaining participating employers.

*
If an entity chooses to stop participating in some of its multiemployer plans, the entity may be required to pay those plans an amount based on the underfunded status of the plan, referred to as a withdrawal liability.

The Company’s participation in these plans for the period ended September 30, 2013 is outlined in the table below. The “EIN Number” column provides the Employer Identification Number (EIN) of the respective plans. The zone status is based on information that the Company received from the plan and is certified by the plan’s actuary. Among other factors, plans that are less than 65 percent funded are generally classified as critical (the Red Zone), plans that are less than 80 percent funded are generally classified as endangered (the Yellow Zone), and plans that are at least 80 percent funded are considered to be in the Green Zone. The “FIP/RP Status Pending/Implemented” column indicates plans for which a financial improvement plan (FIP) or rehabilitation plan (RP) is either pending or has been implemented. Information on the individual plans was obtained from their respective public filings with the Department of Labor.

KNAC Inc. is included in the consolidated federal income tax return of Kvaerner America Holdings Inc. ("KAH"). Accordingly, the actual tax charged to KNAC Inc. is based on an allocation prepared by KAH and and may differ from its stand‑alone tax provision; differences between the calculated amounts and the allocations by KAH are reflected as changes to the tax provision.

During 2013, KNAC Ltd. received research and development investment tax credits from the Canada Revenue Agency. The credits were applied to tax losses generated in prior years and yielded a tax benefit of $3,542, plus interest of $323, which was not recognized in net income until 2013 due to the uncertainty in receiving these credits. This amount was included in income tax receivable at September 30, 2013.
