Tutor Perini Reports First Quarter 2021 Results
•Revenue of $1.21 billion compared to $1.25 billion in Q1 2020
•Income from construction operations of $49.7 million, up 5% over prior year, driven by a shift toward higher-margin projects within the Civil segment
•Diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) of $0.31 compared to $0.34 in Q1 2020
•Backlog remains solid at $8.1 billion, with 59% comprised of higher-margin Civil projects
•Affirming 2021 EPS guidance of $1.80 to $2.20
LOS ANGELES – (BUSINESS WIRE) – May 5, 2021 – Tutor Perini Corporation (the “Company”) (NYSE: TPC), a leading civil, building and specialty construction company, reported results today for the first quarter of 2021. Revenue was $1.21 billion compared to $1.25 billion for the first quarter of last year, as reduced activities on Building segment projects were mostly offset by increased volume on Specialty Contractors segment projects. Despite the slightly lower revenue, income from construction operations for the first quarter of 2021 was $49.7 million, up 5% compared to $47.2 million for the first quarter of last year. The increase was primarily driven by a shift toward higher-margin projects within the Civil segment, including favorable contributions from projects in California and Guam. Net income attributable to the Company for the first quarter of 2021 was $16.0 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, compared to $17.4 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2020. The decrease in net income attributable to the Company, and correspondingly EPS, was principally driven by a higher effective tax rate in the current period compared to the same quarter last year.
First quarter 2021 backlog remained solid at $8.1 billion compared to $8.3 billion at the end of 2020. As anticipated, backlog declined as a result of revenue that modestly outpaced new awards in the quarter. New awards totaled $1.0 billion and included a $269 million government building facility in California, more than $220 million for various civil projects in the Midwest and $120 million of additional funding for a mass-transit project in California. The Company now anticipates booking the previously announced $478 million LAX Airport Metro Connector project into backlog in the second quarter of 2021. The Company also anticipates bidding on several large projects this year and during the first half of 2022, and expects backlog growth to resume in the second half of 2021 to levels that will continue to support future revenue growth.
Outlook and Guidance
“Overall, we delivered solid first-quarter results that were modestly ahead of expectations,” commented Ronald Tutor, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Tutor continued, “We are currently bidding several large projects, with a large stream of other significant bids expected to occur later this year and continuing well into next year. We look forward to winning our share of these opportunities and resuming strong backlog growth in the second half of this year. We are also encouraged by the Biden Administration's strong focus on infrastructure investments and the potential for substantial federal infrastructure spending on the horizon, which would further bolster our already positive long-term business outlook.”
Based on the Company’s year-to-date results in 2021 and the current outlook for the remainder of the year, the Company is affirming its EPS guidance and still expects EPS to be in the range of $1.80 to $2.20.
