QUANTA SERVICES REPORTS 2016 FIRST QUARTER RESULTS

On Track to Achieve Full Year Outlook

Diluted EPS from Continuing Operations of $0.13

Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted EPS from Continuing Operations of $0.23

Backlog Increases to Record $10.1 Billion

HOUSTON – May 5, 2016—Quanta Services, Inc. (NYSE: PWR) today announced results for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Revenues in the first quarter of 2016 were $1.71 billion compared to revenues of $1.86 billion in the first quarter of 2015. Net income from continuing operations attributable to common stock was $20.5 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2016 compared to net income from continuing operations attributable to common stock of $47.7 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2015. Included in Quanta’s operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2016 is a net loss of approximately $21.3 million (or $0.08 per diluted share) that resulted from continued engineering and production issues on a power plant construction project in Alaska. Net income attributable to common stock was $20.5 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2016. This compares to net income attributable to common stock in the first quarter of 2015 of $53.5 million, or $0.25 per diluted share.

“Quanta’s first quarter results were led by solid execution in our core transmission and distribution operations, and we are on track to achieve our full year outlook. We also ended the quarter with record backlog, which exceeded $10 billion for the first time in our company’s history,” said Duke Austin, president and chief executive officer of Quanta Services. “Quanta’s strong balance sheet and ability to deliver unique solutions provide opportunities for us to capture new work while enhancing our core business. With our scope and scale, industry-leading safety record and the largest specialized workforce in our industry, we remain well positioned in the markets we serve and believe our customer’s capital programs continue to provide opportunities for additional project awards.”

Quanta’s results for the three months ended March 31, 2016 include severance costs associated with the departure of Quanta’s former president and chief executive officer and severance and restructuring costs associated with certain operations primarily within the oil and gas infrastructure services segment, which total approximately $6.4 million ($4.1 million net of tax, or $0.03 per diluted share). Quanta has eliminated these costs, net of tax, in the calculation of adjusted diluted earnings per share. Adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations attributable to common stock (a non-GAAP measure) was $0.23 for the first quarter of 2016 compared to $0.28 for the first quarter of 2015.

The adjusted diluted earnings per share measures used in this earnings release are calculated as GAAP diluted earnings per share before acquisition and integration costs, amortization of intangible assets, non-cash compensation expense, and certain other items that affect comparability of results between periods. See the attached table for a reconciliation of adjusted diluted earnings per share (a non-GAAP measure) to GAAP diluted earnings per share.

Quanta completed three acquisitions during the first three months of 2016. Therefore, the first quarter of 2016 results include these acquisitions from the respective acquisition dates and are compared to the pre-acquisition historical results of Quanta for the first quarter of 2015.

OUTLOOK

The long-term outlook for Quanta’s business is positive. However, weather, regulatory, permitting, project timing and other factors have impacted the company’s historical results, and may impact Quanta’s financial results in the future. Therefore, Quanta’s financial outlook for revenues, margins and earnings reflects management’s effort to properly align these uncertainties with the backlog the company is executing on and the opportunities expected to materialize during 2016. The following forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, and actual results may differ materially.

Quanta expects revenues for the full year 2016 to range between $7.5 billion and $8.0 billion and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations to be $1.30 to $1.50. Quanta expects adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations (a non-GAAP measure) for the full year 2016 to be $1.61 to $1.81. Consistent with the calculation of our previous earnings per share outlook, these estimates reflect the retirement of approximately 9.4 million shares delivered in April 2016 upon settlement of the ASR Arrangement. Amortization of intangibles and non-cash stock-based compensation expense are forecasted to be approximately $30.7 million and $42.5 million for the full year of 2016.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The non-GAAP measures in this press release and on Quanta’s website are provided to enable investors, analysts and management to evaluate Quanta’s performance excluding the effects of certain items that management believes impact the comparability of operating results between reporting periods. In addition, management believes these measures are useful in comparing Quanta’s operating results with those of its competitors. These measures should be used in addition to, and not in lieu of, results prepared in conformity with GAAP. Reconciliations of other GAAP to non-GAAP measures not included in the table attached to this press release can be found on the company’s website at www.quantaservices.com in the “Investors & Media” section.

Segment Results

Quanta reports its results under two reportable segments: (1) Electric Power Infrastructure Services and (2) Oil and Gas Infrastructure Services, as set forth below (in thousands, except percentages).

Backlog

Backlog is not a term recognized under United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP); however, it is a common measurement used in the industry. Quanta’s methodology for determining backlog may not be comparable to the methodologies used by other companies. Quanta’s backlog represents the amount of consolidated revenue that it expects to realize from future work under construction contracts, long-term maintenance contracts and master service agreements. These estimates include revenues from the remaining portion of firm orders not yet completed and on which work has not yet begun, as well as revenues from change orders, renewal options, and funded and unfunded portions of government contracts to the extent that they are reasonably expected to occur. For purposes of calculating backlog, Quanta includes 100% of estimated revenues attributable to consolidated joint ventures and variable interest entities. The following table presents Quanta’s total backlog by reportable segment as of March 31, 2016, December 31, 2015 and March 31, 2015, along with an estimate of the backlog amounts expected to be realized within 12 months of each balance sheet date (in millions):

The non-GAAP measure of adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations is provided to enable investors to evaluate performance excluding the effects of items that management believes impact the comparability of operating results between periods. As to certain of the items below, (i) amortization of intangible assets is impacted by Quanta’s acquisition activity, which can cause these amounts to vary from period to period; (ii) non-cash stock-based compensation expense may vary due to acquisition activity, factors influencing the estimated fair value of performance-based awards, forfeiture rates, accelerated vesting and amounts granted during the period; (iii) acquisition and integration costs vary period to period depending on the level of Quanta’s acquisition activity ongoing during the period; and (iv) severance costs related to the departure of Quanta’s former president and chief executive officer and severance and restructuring costs associated with certain operations primarily within Quanta’s Oil and Gas Infrastructure segment are not regularly occurring items.
