  • 85% reimbursable new awards totaling $15.1 billion
  • Strong backlog of $28.5 billion with 79% reimbursable

Insights

Fluor's FY2024 results reveal a company successfully executing its strategic transformation, with several notable achievements that strengthen its market position. The 85% reimbursable portion of new awards significantly reduces project execution risk and provides more predictable revenue streams, marking a strategic shift from the historical fixed-price model that often led to cost overruns.

The company's operational excellence is evident in its $828 million operating cash flow - the highest since 2015 - demonstrating improved working capital management and project execution. This robust cash generation supports the newly announced $300 million share repurchase program for 2025, indicating management's confidence in sustainable free cash flow generation.

Segment performance reveals important trends: Urban Solutions' backlog growth to $17.7 billion reflects strong positioning in high-growth markets like life sciences and mining, while Energy Solutions' profit decline signals some near-term execution challenges that require monitoring. The 79% reimbursable backlog provides excellent revenue visibility and reduced risk profile for the next several years.

The 2025 guidance of $575-675 million adjusted EBITDA suggests continued operational improvement, though the 30-35% tax rate guidance indicates potential earnings headwinds. The $116 million legal provision, while significant, appears to be an isolated legacy issue rather than a systemic problem.

The deconsolidation of NuScale, resulting in a $1.6 billion gain, streamlines Fluor's business model and removes the ongoing cash drain from this development-stage venture, allowing management to focus on core engineering and construction operations.

  • Full year new awards of $15.1 billion; 85% reimbursable
  • Ending backlog of $28.5 billion; 79% reimbursable
  • Strong operating cash flow for 2024 of $828 million; highest OCF generation since 2015
  • Q4 share repurchases of $125 million; $300 million planned for 2025
  • $1.6 billion gain recognized from deconsolidation of NuScale investment

IRVING, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Fluor Corporation (NYSE: FLR) announced financial results for its year ended December 31, 2024. Revenue for 2024 was $16.3 billion and net income attributable to Fluor was $2.1 billion, or $12.30 per diluted share, reflecting the deconsolidation and subsequent remeasurement of Fluor’s investment in NuScale. Consolidated segment profit1 for the year was $635 million, compared to $537 million in 2023. Including the adjustments outlined in the reconciliation table at the end of this release, the company recognized adjusted EBITDA1 of $530 million and adjusted diluted earnings per share1 of $2.32 for 2024.

2024 quarter and full year results include equity method earnings of $2,105 million which include $2,221 million for deconsolidation and remeasurement of our investment in NuScale and a $116 million provision related to a jury verdict against a Fluor joint venture on an infrastructure project completed over 12 years ago. The client sued over alleged incorrect designs performed by a subcontractor. We believe that the jury verdict does not accurately reflect the evidence at trial and we are evaluating all options that may eliminate most, if not all, of the provision taken. This provision does not reflect any offsetting recoveries that we believe are owed to the joint venture.

“Our results for 2024 reflect our four-year journey of building a robust reimbursable backlog across diverse end markets, strengthening our capital structure, developing strong engineering and project execution teams, and commencing our capital allocation program,” said David Constable, chairman and chief executive officer of Fluor. "These efforts have positioned Fluor to deliver significant value and opportunities for our clients, employees and shareholders."

Full year new awards were $15.1 billion compared to $19.5 billion a year ago. Ending backlog for 2024 was $28.5 billion compared to $29.4 billion in the prior year. General and administrative expenses for 2024 were $203 million compared to $232 million a year ago. This decrease is due to a reduction in performance-based compensation. Fluor’s cash and marketable securities at the end of the year were $3.0 billion, up 14% from 2023.

Fourth Quarter Results

Fourth quarter 2024 results include net earnings attributable to Fluor of $1.9 billion, or $10.57 per diluted share, compared to net loss attributable to Fluor of $21 million, or $0.12 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2023. Results include the equity method earnings previously described.

Revenue for the quarter was $4.3 billion compared to $3.8 billion a year ago. Consolidated segment profit for the fourth quarter of 2024 totaled $206 million compared to $85 million a year ago. G&A expenses in the fourth quarter were $55 million, similar to last year. New awards for the quarter were $2.3 billion compared to $7.6 billion in 2023.

Including the adjustments outlined in the reconciliation table at the end of this release, the company recognized adjusted EBITDA of $154 million and adjusted EPS of $0.48 for the fourth quarter of 2024.

Outlook

We are not providing forward-looking guidance for U.S. GAAP net earnings or U.S. GAAP earnings per share, or a quantitative reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA or adjusted EPS guidance, because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty all of the components required to provide such reconciliation without unreasonable efforts, which are uncertain and could have a material impact on GAAP reported results for the guidance period. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for additional information.

In consideration of the timing of new awards and the pace of execution on the existing backlog, we are establishing an adjusted EBITDA guidance for 2025 of $575 to $675 million and adjusted EPS of $2.25 to $2.75 per share. Estimates for 2025 assume a tax rate of 30 to 35% percent. We will share our view on the markets over the next four years at our upcoming strategy update event on April 2nd.

Adjusted EPS and adjusted EBITDA guidance exclude items similar to those outlined in the reconciliation table at the end of this release.

Business Segments

Urban Solutions profit improved to $304 million in 2024 compared to $268 million in 2023. Full year revenue for the segment increased to $7.2 billion compared to $5.3 billion a year ago. Revenue in 2024 significantly increased compared to 2023 primarily due to the ramp up of execution activities on several recently awarded projects including two life sciences projects, and multiple large mining and metals projects. New awards for 2024 were $9.5 billion, compared to $10.1 billion in 2023. Ending backlog increased to $17.7 billion up from $14.8 billion a year ago.

Energy Solutions reported a profit of $256 million in 2024 compared to $381 million in 2023. Segment profit in 2024 was impacted by cost growth related to schedule challenges and reduced productivity on a large project in the late stages of execution. Revenue for 2024 was $6.0 billion, down from $6.3 billion in the previous year. Revenue declined during 2024 primarily due to a decline in execution activity for several projects nearing completion, a deferral of revenue recognized on a large project and lower revenue contributions from refinery projects in Mexico. Full year new awards in 2024 totaled $3.2 billion, compared to $6.9 billion in 2023. Ending backlog was $7.6 billion compared to $9.7 billion a year ago.

Mission Solutions profit improved to $153 million in 2024 compared to $116 million a year ago. Full year revenue for the segment of $2.6 billion is compared to $2.7 billion a year ago. Revenue declined slightly during 2024 compared to 2023 due to the cancellation of a project in 2023. Full year new awards in 2024 were $1.9 billion, compared to $1.1 billion in 2023. Ending backlog was $2.7 billion compared to $3.9 billion a year ago. Backlog does not reflect ongoing contributions from projects recognized as equity method investments.

The Other segment, which includes the operations of NuScale prior to deconsolidation and the Stork and AMECO business prior to their sale, reported full year revenue of $506 million and a loss of $78 million. We completed the sale of Stork's U.K. operations in the first quarter of 2025. We expect the Other segment to be immaterial in 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This news release contains discussions of consolidated segment profit (loss) and margin, adjusted net earnings, adjusted EPS and adjusted EBITDA that are non-GAAP financial measures under SEC rules. Segment profit (loss) is calculated as revenue less cost of revenue and earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests. The company believes that segment profit (loss) provides a meaningful perspective on its business results as it is the aggregation of individual segment profit measures that the company utilizes to evaluate and manage its business performance. Adjusted net earnings is defined as net earnings from core operations excluding equity method earnings and the impacts of foreign exchange fluctuations, impairments and certain items that management believes are unrelated to actual normalized operational performance. Net earnings from core operations is net earnings attributable to Fluor excluding the results of our remaining Stork and AMECO equipment businesses that are no longer classified as discontinued operations but that continue to be marketed for sale or that have been sold. Adjusted EPS is defined as adjusted net earnings divided by adjusted weighted average diluted shares outstanding. For prior period comparisons, adjusted weighted average diluted shares outstanding assumed the conversion of our convertible preferred stock. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net earnings from operations before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), further adjusted by the same items excluded from adjusted net earnings. The company believes adjusted net earnings, adjusted EPS and adjusted EBITDA allow investors to evaluate the company’s ongoing earnings on a normalized basis and make meaningful period-over-period comparisons. However, non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation from or a substitute for measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Reconciliations of consolidated segment profit (loss), adjusted net earnings, adjusted EPS and adjusted EBITDA to the most comparable GAAP measures are included in the press release tables. The company is unable to provide a reconciliation of its adjusted EPS and adjusted EBITDA guidance to the most comparable GAAP measure without unreasonable efforts because it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty all of the components required to provide such reconciliation, including the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations, which are uncertain and could have a material impact on GAAP reported results for the guidance period.
