EXHIBIT DESCRIPTION

99.1    Statement regarding certain preliminary financial results of Jacobs for the third fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2017.

The information disclosed pursuant to Items 2.02 and 9.01 in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including the exhibit, shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section.


Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements contained in this document constitute forward-looking statements as such term is defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and such statements are intended to be covered by the safe harbor provided by the same. Statements made in this document that are not based on historical fact are forward-looking statements, including statements regarding whether and when the proposed transaction with CH2M will be consummated, the anticipated benefits thereof and Jacobs’ preliminary results for the third fiscal quarter of 2017. Although such statements are based on management’s current estimates and expectations, and currently available competitive, financial, and economic data, forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain, and you should not place undue reliance on such statements as actual results may differ materially. Jacobs cautions the reader that there are a variety of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from what is contained, projected or implied by Jacobs’ forward-looking statements. The potential risks and uncertainties include, among others, the possibility that CH2M may be unable to obtain required stockholder approval or that other conditions to closing the transaction may not be satisfied, such that the transaction will not close or that the closing may be delayed; general economic conditions; the transaction may involve unexpected costs, liabilities or delays; risks that the transaction disrupts current plans and operations of the parties to the transaction; the ability to recognize the benefits of the transaction; the amount of the costs, fees, expenses and charges related to the transaction and the actual terms of any financings that will be obtained for the transaction; the outcome of any legal proceedings related to the transaction; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the transaction agreement and the completion of Jacobs’ financial closing procedures, final adjustments and other developments that may arise between the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K and the time the financial results for Jacobs’ third fiscal quarter of 2017 are finalized. For a description of some additional factors that may occur that could cause actual results to differ from Jacobs’ forward-looking statements see Jacobs’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended September 30, 2016, and in particular the discussions contained under Item 1 - Business; Item 1A - Risk Factors; Item 3 - Legal Proceedings; and Item 7 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, as well as Jacobs’ other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Neither Jacobs nor CH2M is under any duty to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K to conform to actual results, except as required by applicable law.
