FLUOR CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

UNAUDITED

 

(1)                  Principles of Consolidation

 

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include footnotes and certain financial information normally presented annually under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and, therefore, should be read in conjunction with the company’s December 31, 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Accounting measurements at interim dates inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than at year-end. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 may not necessarily be indicative of results that can be expected for the full year.

 

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein are unaudited; however, they contain all adjustments of a normal recurring nature which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly its consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2014 and its consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. All significant intercompany transactions of consolidated subsidiaries are eliminated. Certain amounts in 2013 have been reclassified to conform to the 2014 presentation. Management has evaluated all material events occurring subsequent to the date of the financial statements up to the date this quarterly report is filed on Form 10-Q.

 

(2)                  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

New accounting pronouncements implemented by the company during the six months ended June 30, 2014 or requiring implementation in future periods are discussed below or elsewhere in the notes, where appropriate.

 

In June 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-12, “Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved After the Requisite Service Period.” This ASU requires that a performance target that affects vesting, and that could be achieved after the requisite service period, be treated as a performance condition. ASU 2014-12 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Management does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-12 to have a material impact on the company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows in that it is currently not applicable.

 

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-11, “Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures,” which makes limited amendments to the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 860, “Transfers and Servicing,” on accounting for certain repurchase agreements (“repos”). The ASU (1) requires entities to account for repurchase-to-maturity transactions as secured borrowings (rather than as sales with forward repurchase agreements); (2) eliminates accounting guidance on linked repurchase financing transactions; and (3) expands disclosure requirements related to certain transfers of financial assets that are accounted for as sales and certain transfers (specifically, repos, securities lending transactions and repurchase-to-maturity transactions) accounted for as secured borrowings. This ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014. Management does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-11 to have a material impact on the company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. ASU 2014-09 outlines a five-step process for revenue recognition that focuses on transfer of control, as opposed to transfer of risk and rewards, and also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows from contracts with customers. Major provisions include determining which goods and services are distinct and require separate accounting, how variable consideration (which may include change orders and claims) is recognized, whether revenue should be recognized at a point in time or over time and ensuring the time value of money is considered in the transaction price. This ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and can be applied either retrospectively to each prior period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. Management is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2014-09 on the company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

 

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity,” which amends the definition of a discontinued operation and requires entities to provide additional disclosures about disposal transactions that do not meet the discontinued operations criteria. This ASU requires discontinued operations treatment for disposals of a component or group of components of an entity that represent a strategic shift that has or will have a major impact on an entity’s operations or financial results. ASU 2014-08 also expands the scope of ASC 205-20,

“Discontinued Operations,” to disposals of equity method investments and acquired businesses held for sale. This ASU is effective prospectively for all disposals or classifications as held for sale that occur in interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014. Management does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-08 to have a material impact on the company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-05, “Service Concession Arrangements.” This ASU clarifies that, unless certain circumstances are met, operating entities should not account for certain concession arrangements with public-sector entities as leases and should not recognize the related infrastructure as property, plant and equipment. This ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014. Management does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-05 to have a material impact on the company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In the first quarter of 2014, the company adopted ASU 2013-11, “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists.” This ASU clarifies the financial statement presentation of unrecognized tax benefits in certain circumstances. The adoption of ASU 2013-11 did not have an impact on the company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In the first quarter of 2014, the company adopted ASU 2013-07, “Liquidation Basis of Accounting,” which clarifies when an entity should apply the liquidation basis of accounting. In addition, ASU 2013-07 provides principles for the recognition and measurement of assets and liabilities and requirements for financial statements prepared using the liquidation basis of accounting. The adoption of ASU 2013-07 did not have an impact on the company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In the first quarter of 2014, the company adopted ASU 2013-05, “Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity.” The objective of ASU 2013-05 is to resolve a practice diversity in circumstances where reporting entities release cumulative translation adjustments into net income when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity, or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business (other than a sale of in substance real estate or conveyance of oil and gas mineral rights) within a foreign entity. The adoption of ASU 2013-05 did not have an impact on the company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In the first quarter of 2014, the company adopted ASU 2013-04, “Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date,” which addresses the recognition, measurement and disclosure of certain obligations including debt arrangements, other contractual obligations and settled litigation and judicial rulings. The adoption of ASU 2013-04 did not have an impact on the company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

(3)                  Discontinued Operations

 

The company recorded a loss from discontinued operations of $85 million (net of taxes of $47 million) during the three months ended June 30, 2014 in connection with the reassessment of estimated loss contingencies related to the lead business of St. Joe Minerals Corporation (“St. Joe”) and The Doe Run Company (“Doe Run”) in Herculaneum, Missouri, which are discontinued operations. In 1994, the company sold its interests in St. Joe and Doe Run, along with all liabilities associated with the lead business, pursuant to a sale agreement in which the buyer agreed to indemnify the company for those liabilities. See further discussion of this matter in Note 14.

The effective tax rate on earnings from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was 31.6 percent and 30.2 percent, respectively, compared to 30.6 percent and 30.5 percent for the corresponding periods of 2013. The slightly higher effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily due to a benefit in 2013 of U.S. federal tax research credits which has not been extended beyond 2013. The effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were comparable, though 2013 benefited from the federal tax research credits and 2014 benefited from the recognition of a deferred tax benefit attributable to foreign taxes previously paid on certain unremitted foreign earnings. All periods benefited from earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests for which income taxes are not typically the responsibility of the company. The Company’s effective tax rate from discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was 35.7 percent.

 

The company conducts business globally and, as a result, the company or one or more of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the company is subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world, including such major jurisdictions as Australia, Canada, the Netherlands, South Africa, the United Kingdom and the United States. Although the company believes its reserves for its tax positions are reasonable, the final outcome of tax audits could be materially different, both favorably and unfavorably. With few exceptions, the company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations for years before 2006.

(8)                  Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The fair value hierarchy established by ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation techniques into the following three levels:

 

·  Level 1  – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities

·  Level 2  – inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that are observable, either directly or indirectly

·  Level 3  – unobservable inputs

 

The company measures and reports assets and liabilities at fair value utilizing pricing information received from third parties. The company performs procedures to verify the reasonableness of pricing information received for significant assets and liabilities classified as Level 2.

 

The following table presents, for each of the fair value hierarchy levels required under ASC 820-10, the company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

All of the company’s financial instruments carried at fair value are included in the table above. All of the above financial instruments are available-for-sale securities except for those held in the deferred compensation trusts (which are trading securities) and derivative assets and liabilities. The company has determined that there was no other-than-temporary impairment of available-for-sale securities with unrealized losses, and the company expects to recover the entire cost basis of the securities. The available-for-sale securities are made up of the following security types as of June 30, 2014: money market funds of $23 million, U.S. agency securities of $87 million, U.S. Treasury securities of $86 million, corporate debt securities of $237 million and commercial paper of $6 million. As of December 31, 2013, available-for-sale securities consisted of money market funds of $50 million, U.S. agency securities of $119 million, U.S. Treasury securities of $26 million, corporate debt securities of $235 million and commercial paper of $7 million. The amortized cost of these available-for-sale securities is not materially different from the fair value. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, proceeds from the sales and maturities of available-for-sale securities were $53 million and $117 million, respectively, compared to $131 million and $206 million for the corresponding periods of 2013.

(4)     Notes receivable are carried at net realizable value which approximates fair value. Factors considered by the company in determining the fair value include the credit worthiness of the borrower, current interest rates, the term of the note and any collateral pledged as security. Notes receivable are periodically assessed for impairment.

exposure, which includes currency and commodity price risk associated with engineering and construction contracts, currency risk associated with monetary assets and liabilities denominated in nonfunctional currencies and risk associated with interest rate volatility, may subject the company to earnings volatility. In cases where financial exposure is identified, the company generally implements a hedging strategy utilizing derivative instruments as hedging instruments to mitigate the risk. These hedging instruments are designated as either fair value or cash flow hedges in accordance with ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.” The company formally documents its hedge relationships at inception, including identification of the hedging instruments and the hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge transaction. The company also formally assesses, both at inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the hedging instruments are highly effective in offsetting changes in the fair value of the hedged items. The fair values of all hedging instruments are recognized as assets or liabilities at the balance sheet date. For fair value hedges, the effective portion of the change in the fair value of the hedging instrument is offset against the change in the fair value of the underlying asset or liability through earnings. For cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the hedging instruments’ gains or losses due to changes in fair value are recorded as a component of AOCI and are reclassified into earnings when the hedged items settle. Any ineffective portion of a hedging instrument’s change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings. The company does not enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes. The company maintains master netting arrangements with certain counterparties to facilitate the settlement of derivative instruments; however, the company reports the fair value of derivative instruments on a gross basis.

 

As of June 30, 2014, the company had total gross notional amounts of $165 million of foreign currency contracts and $7 million of commodity contracts outstanding relating to engineering and construction contract obligations and monetary assets and liabilities denominated in nonfunctional currencies. The foreign currency contracts are of varying duration, none of which extend beyond June 2016. The commodity contracts are of varying duration, none of which extend beyond May 2017. The impact to earnings due to hedge ineffectiveness was immaterial for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

The company currently expects to fund approximately $30 million to $60 million into its defined benefit pension plans during 2014, which is expected to be in excess of the minimum funding required. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, contributions of approximately $12 million were made by the company.

 

(11)           Financing Arrangements

 

In May 2014, the company entered into a $1.7 billion Revolving Loan and Letter of Credit Facility Agreement (“Credit Facility”) that matures in 2019. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at rates based on the Eurodollar Rate or an alternative base rate, plus an applicable borrowing margin. The Credit Facility may be increased up to an additional $500 million subject to certain conditions, and contains customary financial and restrictive covenants, including a maximum ratio of consolidated debt to tangible net worth of one-to-one and a cap on the aggregate amount of debt of $750 million for the company’s subsidiaries. On the same day, the company terminated its $1.2 billion Revolving Performance Letter of Credit Facility Agreement dated December 14, 2010 and all outstanding letters of credit thereunder have been assigned or otherwise transferred to the new Credit Facility.

UNAUDITED

 

In conjunction with the Credit Facility, the company also amended its existing $1.8 billion Revolving Loan and Letter of Credit Facility Agreement dated November 9, 2012 to extend the maturity date to May 2019 and increase the cap on the aggregate amount of debt for the company’s subsidiaries from $600 million to $750 million.

 

In September 2011, the company issued $500 million of 3.375% Senior Notes (the “2011 Notes”) due September 15, 2021 and received proceeds of $492 million, net of underwriting discounts and debt issuance costs. Interest on the 2011 Notes is payable semi-annually on March 15 and September 15 of each year, and began on March 15, 2012. The company may, at any time, redeem the 2011 Notes at a redemption price equal to 100 percent of the principal amount, plus a “make whole” premium described in the indenture. Additionally, if a change of control triggering event occurs, as defined by the terms of the indenture, the company will be required to offer to purchase the 2011 Notes at a purchase price equal to 101 percent of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase. The company is generally not limited under the indenture governing the 2011 Notes in its ability to incur additional indebtedness provided the company is in compliance with certain restrictive covenants, including restrictions on liens and restrictions on sale and leaseback transactions.

 

In February 2004, the company issued $330 million of 1.5% Convertible Senior Notes (the “2004 Notes”) due February 15, 2024 and received proceeds of $323 million, net of underwriting discounts. In December 2004, the company irrevocably elected to pay the principal amount of the 2004 Notes in cash. The 2004 Notes are convertible if a specified trading price of the company’s common stock (the “trigger price”) is achieved and maintained for a specified period. The trigger price condition was satisfied during the fourth quarter of 2013 and second quarter of 2014 and the 2004 Notes were therefore classified as short-term debt as of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2014, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, holders converted less than $0.1 million of the 2004 Notes in exchange for the principal balance owed in cash plus 1,727 shares of the company’s common stock. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, holders converted less than $0.1 million of the 2004 Notes in exchange for the principal balance owed in cash plus 61 shares of the company’s common stock.

The 2004 Notes are convertible into shares of the company’s common stock (par value $0.01 per share) at a conversion rate of 36.6729 shares per each $1,000 principal amount of the 2004 Notes. Interest expense for the three and six month periods included original coupon interest of less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively, during both 2014 and 2013. The if-converted value of $52 million was in excess of the principal value as of June 30, 2014.

 

In July 2013, the company established a short-term credit facility to purchase land and construction equipment associated with the equipment operations in the Global Services segment. Outstanding borrowings under the facility were $11 million as of both June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

 

As of June 30, 2014, the company was in compliance with all of the financial covenants related to its debt agreements.

 

(12)           Stock-Based Plans

 

The company’s executive and director stock-based compensation plans are described, and informational disclosures provided, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. In the first half of 2014 and 2013, restricted stock units and restricted shares totaling 370,014 and 468,695, respectively, were granted to executives and directors, at weighted-average per share prices of $79.06 and $61.30, respectively. For the company’s executives, the restricted units and shares granted in 2014 and 2013 generally vest ratably over three years. For the company’s directors, the restricted units and shares granted in 2014 and 2013 vest or vested on the first anniversary of the grant. During the first half of 2014 and 2013, options for the purchase of 684,486 shares at a weighted-average exercise price of $79.19 per share and 884,574 shares at a weighted-average exercise price of $61.45 per share, respectively, were awarded to executives. The options granted in 2014 and 2013 vest ratably over three years. The options expire ten years after the grant date. In the first half

of 2014 and 2013, performance-based Value Driver Incentive (“VDI”) units totaling 315,551 and 385,742, respectively, were granted to executives at weighted-average per share prices of $79.19 and $61.45, respectively. The number of units is adjusted at the end of each performance period based on the achievement of performance criteria. The VDI awards granted in 2014 and 2013 vest after a period of approximately three years.

 

(13)           Noncontrolling Interests

 

The company applies the provisions of ASC 810-10-45, which establishes accounting and reporting standards for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, the amount of consolidated net earnings attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interests, changes in a parent’s ownership interest and the valuation of retained noncontrolling equity investments when a subsidiary is deconsolidated.

 

As required by ASC 810-10-45, the company has separately disclosed on the face of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings for all periods presented the amount of net earnings attributable to the company and the amount of net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests were $32 million and $76 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests were $46 million and $93 million, respectively. Income taxes associated with earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests were immaterial in both periods presented. Distributions paid to noncontrolling interests were $44 million and $46 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Capital contributions by noncontrolling interests were $0.2 million and $1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

 

(14)           Contingencies and Commitments

 

The company and certain of its subsidiaries are subject to litigation, claims and other commitments and contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business. The company currently does not expect that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

 

As of June 30, 2014, several matters were in the litigation and dispute resolution process. The following discussion provides a background and current status of these matters:

 

St. Joe Minerals Matters

 

Since 1995, the company has been named as a defendant in a number of lawsuits alleging injuries resulting from the lead business of St. Joe Minerals Corporation (“St. Joe”) and The Doe Run Company (“Doe Run”) in Herculaneum, Missouri, which are discontinued operations. The company was named as a defendant in these lawsuits as a result of its ownership or other interests in St. Joe and Doe Run in the period between 1981 and 1994. In 1994, the company sold its interests in St. Joe and Doe Run, along with all liabilities associated with the lead business, pursuant to a sale agreement in which the buyer agreed to indemnify the company for those liabilities. Until December 2010, substantially all the lawsuits were settled and paid by the buyer; and in all cases the company was fully released.

 

In December 2010, the buyer settled with certain plaintiffs without obtaining a release for the benefit of the company, leaving the company to defend its case with these plaintiffs in the City of St. Louis Circuit Court. In late July 2011, the jury reached an unexpected verdict in this case, ruling in favor of 16 of the plaintiffs and against the company and certain former subsidiaries for $38.5 million in compensatory and economic damages and $320 million in punitive damages. In August 2011, the court entered judgments based on the verdict. In December 2011, the company appealed the judgments of the court.

 

In June 2014, the Missouri Court of Appeals issued its opinion reversing and remanding to the trial court the award of $240 million in punitive damages against Fluor. In addition, the appellate court upheld the judgment for $38.5 million in compensatory and economic damages and $80 million of punitive damages against the company and its former subsidiaries to whom the company has provided certain indemnities relating to the St. Joe and Doe Run businesses. Both parties have filed motions for rehearing with respect to various aspects of the opinion and to transfer the matter to the Missouri Supreme Court. The company will also continue to take steps to enforce its rights to indemnification described above. As a result of the company’s reassessment of an estimated loss contingency in this matter, the company recorded a loss from discontinued operations of $85 million (net of taxes of $47 million) during the three months ended June 30, 2014.

UNAUDITED

 

The company, the buyer and other entities are defendants in 19 additional lawsuits (including consolidated lawsuits) relating to the lead business of St. Joe and Doe Run. The company believes it has strong defenses to these lawsuits and is vigorously defending its position. The company is unable to estimate a range of possible losses in these lawsuits. In addition, the company has filed claims for indemnification under the sale agreement and for other matters raised in these lawsuits. If the company were unsuccessful in any of these lawsuits, or in the prosecution of and collection on our indemnity claims, the company could recognize a material charge within discontinued operations.

 

Conex International v. Fluor Enterprises, Inc.

 

In November 2006, a Jefferson County, Texas, jury reached an unexpected verdict in the case of Conex International (“Conex”) v. Fluor Enterprises Inc. (“FEI”), ruling in favor of Conex and awarding $99 million in damages related to a 2001 construction project.

 

In 2001, Atofina (now part of Total Petrochemicals Inc.) hired Conex International to be the mechanical contractor on a project at Atofina’s refinery in Port Arthur, Texas. FEI was also hired to provide certain engineering advice to Atofina on the project. There was no contract between Conex and FEI. Later in 2001 after the project was complete, Conex and Atofina negotiated a final settlement for extra work on the project. Conex sued FEI in September 2003, alleging damages for interference and misrepresentation and demanding that FEI should pay Conex the balance of the extra work charges that Atofina did not pay in the settlement. Conex also asserted that FEI interfered with Conex’s contract and business relationship with Atofina. The jury verdict awarded damages for the extra work and the alleged interference.

 

The company appealed the decision and the judgment against the company was reversed in its entirety in December 2008. Both parties appealed the decision to the Texas Supreme Court, and the court denied both petitions. The company requested rehearing on two issues to the Texas Supreme Court, and that request was denied. The Texas Supreme Court remanded the matter to the trial court for a new trial. The matter was stayed, pending resolution of certain technical issues associated with the 2011 bankruptcy filing by the plaintiff’s parent. These issues have been resolved. The matter has been remanded to the court in Jefferson County, Texas. Based upon the present status of this matter, the company does not believe that there is a reasonable possibility that a loss will be incurred.

 

Other Matters

 

The company and certain of its clients have made claims arising from the performance under its contracts. The company recognizes revenue, but not profit, for certain claims (including change orders in dispute and unapproved change orders in regard to both scope and price) when it is determined that recovery of incurred costs is probable and the amounts can be reliably estimated. Under ASC 605-35-25, these requirements are satisfied when (a) the contract or other evidence provides a legal basis for the claim, (b) additional costs were caused by circumstances that were unforeseen at the contract date and not the result of deficiencies in the company’s performance, (c) claim-related costs are identifiable and considered reasonable in view of the work performed, and (d) evidence supporting the claim is objective and verifiable. The company periodically evaluates its position and the amounts recognized in revenue with respect to all its claims. Recognized claims against clients amounted to $26 million as of June 30, 2014, and are included in contract work in progress in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. There were no recognized claims against clients as of December 31, 2013.

 

From time to time, the company enters into significant contracts with the U.S. government and its agencies. Government contracts are subject to audits and investigations by government representatives with respect to the company’s compliance with various restrictions and regulations applicable to government contractors, including but not limited to the allowability of costs incurred under reimbursable contracts. In connection with performing government contracts, the company maintains reserves for estimated exposures associated with these matters.

 

(15)           Guarantees

 

In the ordinary course of business, the company enters into various agreements providing performance assurances and guarantees to clients on behalf of certain unconsolidated and consolidated partnerships, joint ventures and other jointly executed contracts. These agreements are entered into primarily to support the project execution commitments of these entities. The

performance guarantees have various expiration dates ranging from mechanical completion of the facilities being constructed to a period extending beyond contract completion in certain circumstances. The maximum potential amount of future payments that the company could be required to make under outstanding performance guarantees, which represents the remaining cost of work to be performed by or on behalf of third parties under engineering and construction contracts, was estimated to be $14.1 billion as of June 30, 2014. Amounts that may be required to be paid in excess of estimated cost to complete contracts in progress are not estimable. For cost reimbursable contracts, amounts that may become payable pursuant to guarantee provisions are normally recoverable from the client for work performed under the contract. For lump-sum or fixed-price contracts, the performance guarantee amount is the cost to complete the contracted work, less amounts remaining to be billed to the client under the contract. Remaining billable amounts could be greater or less than the cost to complete. In those cases where costs exceed the remaining amounts payable under the contract, the company may have recourse to third parties, such as owners, co-venturers, subcontractors or vendors for claims. The company assessed its performance guarantee obligation as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 in accordance with ASC 460, “Guarantees” and the carrying value of the liability was not material.

 

Financial guarantees, made in the ordinary course of business in certain limited circumstances, are entered into with financial institutions and other credit grantors and generally obligate the company to make payment in the event of a default by the borrower. These arrangements may require the borrower to pledge collateral to support the fulfillment of the borrower’s obligation.

 

(16)       Variable Interest Entities

 

Variable Interest Entities

 

In the normal course of business, the company forms partnerships or joint ventures primarily for the execution of single contracts or projects. The majority of these partnerships or joint ventures are characterized by a 50 percent or less, noncontrolling ownership or participation interest, with decision making and distribution of expected gains and losses typically being proportionate to the ownership or participation interest. Many of the partnership and joint venture agreements provide for capital calls to fund operations, as necessary. Such funding is infrequent and is not anticipated to be material. The company accounts for its partnerships and joint ventures in accordance with ASC 810.

 

In accordance with ASC 810, the company assesses its partnerships and joint ventures at inception to determine if any meet the qualifications of a VIE. The company considers a partnership or joint venture a VIE if either (a) the total equity investment is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, (b) characteristics of a controlling financial interest are missing (either the ability to make decisions through voting or other rights, the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity or the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity), or (c) the voting rights of the equity holders are not proportional to their obligations to absorb the expected losses of the entity and/or their rights to receive the expected residual returns of the entity, and substantially all of the entity’s activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights. Upon the occurrence of certain events outlined in ASC 810, the company reassesses its initial determination of whether the partnership or joint venture is a VIE. The majority of the company’s partnerships and joint ventures qualify as VIEs because the total equity investment is typically nominal and not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support.

 

The company also performs a qualitative assessment of each VIE to determine if the company is its primary beneficiary, as required by ASC 810. The company concludes that it is the primary beneficiary and consolidates the VIE if the company has both (a) the power to direct the economically significant activities of the entity and (b) the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The company considers the contractual agreements that define the ownership structure, distribution of profits and losses, risks, responsibilities, indebtedness, voting rights and board representation of the respective parties in determining if the company is the primary beneficiary. The company also considers all parties that have direct or implicit variable interests when determining whether it is the primary beneficiary. As required by ASC 810, management’s assessment of whether the company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE is continuously performed.

UNAUDITED

 

In most cases, when the company is not the primary beneficiary and not required to consolidate the VIE, the proportionate consolidation method of accounting is used for joint ventures and partnerships in the construction industry, whereby the company recognizes its proportionate share of revenue, cost and profit in its Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings and uses the one-line equity method of accounting in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, which is a common application of ASC 810-10-45-14 in the construction industry. The equity and cost methods of accounting for the investments are also used, depending on the company’s respective ownership interest, amount of influence over the VIE and the nature of services provided by the VIE. The net carrying value of the unconsolidated VIEs classified under “Investments and goodwill” and “Other accrued liabilities” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet was a net asset of $96 million and $122 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Some of the company’s VIEs have debt; however, such debt is typically non-recourse in nature. The company’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its investments in unconsolidated VIEs is typically limited to the aggregate of the carrying value of the investment and future funding commitments. Future funding commitments as of June 30, 2014 for the unconsolidated VIEs were $20 million.

 

In some cases, the company is required to consolidate certain VIEs. As of June 30, 2014, the carrying values of the assets and liabilities associated with the operations of the consolidated VIEs were $1.2 billion and $675 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, the carrying values of the assets and liabilities associated with the operations of the consolidated VIEs were $1.2 billion and $731 million, respectively. The assets of a VIE are restricted for use only for the particular VIE and are not available for general operations of the company.

 

None of the VIEs are individually material to the company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows except for the Fluor SKM joint venture, a consolidated joint venture formed for the execution of an iron ore project in Australia, which was material to the company’s revenue for the 2013 period. The company’s results of operations included revenue related to the Fluor SKM joint venture of $102 million and $267 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $538 million and $1.3 billion for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.

Power segment profit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 included the operations of NuScale, which are primarily for research and development activities associated with the licensing and commercialization of small modular nuclear reactor technology. In the second quarter of 2014, NuScale entered into a cost-sharing agreement with the U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”) establishing the terms and conditions of a multi-year funding award and, as a result, accrued for the reimbursement of $17 million of certain qualified expenditures. The NuScale expenses, included in the determination of segment profit, were $4 million and $17 million (net of the $17 million accrual for both periods), respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and $13 million and $28 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. The company will recognize the cost-sharing award with the DOE, when earned, as a reduction of “Total cost of revenue” in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings and, correspondingly, as an increase to segment profit in the period for which the related costs are recognized, with the exception of certain pre-award costs which were recognized in the second quarter of 2014 upon entering into the cost-sharing agreement.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes and the company’s December 31, 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K. For purposes of reviewing this document, “segment profit” is calculated as revenue less cost of revenue and earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests excluding: corporate general and administrative expense; interest expense; interest income; domestic and foreign income taxes; other non-operating income and expense items; and loss from discontinued operations.

 

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

Certain statements made herein, including statements regarding the company’s projected revenue and earnings levels, cash flow and liquidity, new awards and backlog levels and the implementation of strategic initiatives and organizational changes are forward-looking in nature. We wish to caution readers that forward-looking statements, including disclosures which use words such as the company “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “estimates” and similar statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results of operations to differ materially from expectations. Factors potentially contributing to such differences include, among others:

 

·                  Difficulties or delays incurred in the execution of contracts, or failure to accurately estimate the resources and time necessary for our contracts, resulting in cost overruns or liabilities, including those caused by the performance of our clients, subcontractors, suppliers and joint venture or teaming partners;

·                  Intense competition in the global engineering, procurement and construction industry, which can place downward pressure on our contract prices and profit margins;

·                  The company’s failure to receive anticipated new contract awards and the related impact on revenue, earnings, staffing levels and cost;

·                  The cyclical nature of many of the markets the company serves, including our commodity-based business lines, and our vulnerability to downturns;

·                  A failure to obtain favorable results in existing or future litigation or dispute resolution proceedings (including claims for indemnification), or claims against project owners, subcontractors or suppliers;

·                  Current economic conditions affecting our clients, partners, subcontractors and suppliers, which may result in decreased capital investment or expenditures, or a failure to make anticipated increased capital investment or expenditures, by the company’s clients or other financial difficulties by our partners, subcontractors or suppliers;

·                  Client cancellations of, or scope adjustments to, existing contracts and the related impacts on staffing levels and cost;

·                  Changes in global business, economic (including currency risk), political and social conditions;

·                  Civil unrest, security issues, labor conditions and other unforeseeable events in the countries in which we do business, resulting in unanticipated losses;

·                  Client delays or defaults in making payments;

·                  Failure to meet timely completion or performance standards that could result in higher cost and reduced profits or, in some cases, losses on projects;

·                  Liabilities arising from faulty services that could result in significant professional or product liability, warranty or other claims;

·                  Failure of our suppliers, subcontractors or joint venture partners to provide supplies or services at the agreed-upon levels or times;

·                  The impact of anti-bribery and international trade laws and regulations;

·                  Repercussions of events beyond our control, such as severe weather conditions, that may significantly affect operations, result in higher cost or subject the company to liability claims by our clients;

·                  The potential impact of certain tax matters including, but not limited to, those from foreign operations and the ongoing audits by tax authorities;

·                  Possible systems and information technology interruptions or the failure to adequately protect intellectual property rights;

·                  Foreign exchange risks;

·                  Failure to maintain safe work sites;

·                  The impact of past and future environmental, health and safety regulations including climate change regulations;

·                  Possible limitations of bonding or letter of credit capacity;

·                  The company’s ability to secure appropriate insurance;

·                  The availability of credit and restrictions imposed by credit facilities, both for the company and our clients, suppliers, subcontractors or other partners;

·                  The risks associated with acquisitions, dispositions or other investments;

·                  Limitations on cash transfers from subsidiaries that may restrict the company’s ability to satisfy financial obligations or to pay interest or principal when due on outstanding debt; and

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Summary

 

Consolidated revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2014 decreased 27 percent to $5.3 billion from $7.2 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Consolidated revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2014 decreased 26 percent to $10.6 billion from $14.4 billion for the first half of the prior year. The revenue decreases in the current year periods were principally due to a significant decline in project execution activities in the mining and metals business line of the Industrial & Infrastructure segment.

 

Earnings from continuing operations attributable to Fluor Corporation were $163 million or $1.02 per diluted share, and $312 million, or $1.93 per diluted share, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, compared to earnings from continuing operations attributable to Fluor Corporation of $161 million or $0.98 per diluted share, and $328 million, or $2.00 per diluted share, for the corresponding periods of 2013. Earnings from continuing operations attributable to Fluor Corporation in the second quarter of 2014 were essentially flat when compared to the prior year period, with higher contributions from the Oil & Gas segment being offset by lower contributions from the mining and metals business line of the Industrial & Infrastructure segment and higher general and administrative expenses. The slight decrease in earnings from continuing operations attributable to Fluor Corporation during the six months ended June 30, 2014 resulted from lower contributions from the mining and metals business line of the Industrial & Infrastructure segment, the Government segment and the Global Services segment, as well as higher general and administrative expenses (see further discussion below), which were largely offset by significantly higher contributions from the Oil & Gas segment.

 

As discussed in Note 3 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the company recorded a loss from discontinued operations of $85 million (net of taxes of $47 million) during the three months ended June 30, 2014 in connection with the reassessment of estimated loss contingencies related to the lead business of St. Joe Minerals Corporation (“St. Joe”) and The Doe Run Company (“Doe Run”) in Herculaneum, Missouri, which are discontinued operations. In 1994, the company sold its interests in St. Joe and Doe Run, along with all liabilities associated with the lead business, pursuant to a sale agreement in which the buyer agreed to indemnify the company for those liabilities.

 

The company is still experiencing a highly competitive business environment, with pressure on margins. However, the Oil & Gas segment has continued to show signs of improvement, particularly for the upstream and petrochemicals markets. In some

 

24

cases, margins may be favorably or unfavorably impacted by a change in the mix of work performed. For example, in the results of the first six months of 2014, the Oil & Gas segment experienced a higher segment profit margin due to a shift in the mix of work to higher margin engineering activities from lower margin construction activities. This shift corresponds to an increase in contributions from projects that are in the early stages of the project life cycle compared to a year ago.

 

In addition to the strengthening of the upstream and petrochemicals markets of the Oil & Gas segment, certain other market trends continue. First, the mining and metals business line of the Industrial & Infrastructure segment has continued to slow as major capital investment decisions by most mining customers have been deferred. Second, the federal government has continued to close bases in the execution of the Logistics Civil Augmentation Program (“LOGCAP IV”) for the United States Army in Afghanistan, which has reduced the volume of work for the Government segment.

 

The effective tax rate on earnings from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was 31.6 percent and 30.2 percent, respectively, compared to 30.6 percent and 30.5 percent for the corresponding periods of 2013. The slightly higher effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily due to a benefit in 2013 of U.S. federal tax research credits which has not been extended beyond 2013. The effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were comparable, though 2013 benefited from the federal tax research credits and 2014 benefited from the recognition of a deferred tax benefit attributable to foreign taxes previously paid on certain unremitted foreign earnings. All periods benefited from earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests for which income taxes are not typically the responsibility of the company. The Company’s effective tax rate from discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was 35.7 percent.

 

Consolidated new awards were $5.9 billion and $16.5 billion for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, compared to new awards of $7.2 billion and $13.7 billion for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. The Oil & Gas and Government segments were the major contributors to the new award activity in the first half of 2014. Approximately 83 percent of consolidated new awards for the six months ended June 30, 2014 were for projects located outside of the United States compared to 66 percent for the first six months of 2013.

 

Consolidated backlog as of June 30, 2014 was $40.3 billion compared to $37.0 billion as of June 30, 2013. The increase in backlog was primarily due to significant new awards in the Oil & Gas and Government segments, partially offset by a decline in backlog in the mining and metals business line of the Industrial & Infrastructure segment. As of both June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, approximately 70 percent of consolidated backlog related to projects outside of the United States. Although backlog reflects business which is considered to be firm, cancellations or scope adjustments may occur. Backlog is adjusted to reflect any known project cancellations, revisions to project scope and cost, and deferrals, as appropriate.

Revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was level compared to the corresponding periods in 2013. The segment experienced significant increased project execution activities for several projects, including petrochemical projects on the Gulf Coast of the United States, a gas processing project in Kazakhstan and an upstream production facility in Russia. These increases were offset by revenue declines for certain large projects completed or progressing toward completion, including a refinery project in the United States, certain oil sands processing facilities in Canada and a coal bed methane gas project in Australia.

 

Segment profit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 increased 57 percent and 44 percent, respectively, compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. This improvement was largely attributable to the Gulf Coast petrochemical projects, the gas processing project in Kazakhstan and the upstream production facility in Russia that were mentioned previously, as well as an upstream project in the Middle East that is nearing completion. Segment profit margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was 5.9 percent and 5.5 percent, respectively, compared to 3.7 percent and 3.8 percent for the corresponding periods of 2013. This improvement was primarily due to the performance of the projects that fueled the increase in segment profit in the current year periods discussed above, as well as a shift in the mix of work in the segment from lower

 

25



Table of Contents

 

margin construction activities to higher margin engineering activities. This shift corresponds to an increase in contributions during the first two quarters of 2014 from projects that are in the early stages of the project life cycle compared to a year ago, including some of the Gulf Coast petrochemicals projects, the gas processing project in Kazakhstan and the upstream production facility in Russia.

 

New awards for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 were $1.5 billion and $10.3 billion, compared to $3.3 billion and $6.4 billion for the corresponding periods of 2013. Current quarter new awards included a refinery project in Belgium. Backlog as of June 30, 2014 increased 29 percent to $24.2 billion compared to $18.7 billion as of June 30, 2013. The growth in backlog was due to the strength of the new award activity in the first half of 2014, reflecting continued demand for new capacity in oil and gas production, petrochemicals and gas liquefaction. The segment remains well positioned for new project activity in these markets. Market conditions remain competitive and, in certain cases, may result in more lump-sum contracts.

 

Total assets in the segment increased to $1.8 billion as of June 30, 2014 from $1.6 billion as of December 31, 2013.

Revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 decreased 52 percent and 49 percent, respectively, compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, primarily as a result of decreased volume in the mining and metals business line.

 

Segment profit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 decreased 25 percent and 23 percent, respectively, from the corresponding periods in the prior year, primarily as a result of the significant volume decline in the mining and metals business line. Partially offsetting this reduction in segment profit was the favorable impact of project closeout activities for certain mining projects and improved performance from the infrastructure business line, including significant progress toward completion on a domestic road project.

 

Segment profit margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was 6.5 percent and 6.3 percent, respectively, compared to 4.2 percent and 4.1 percent, respectively, for the same periods in the prior year. Segment profit margins increased primarily because, in the prior year periods, the mining and metals business line had a significantly higher content of customer-furnished materials, which are accounted for as pass-through costs. Segment profit margins were also affected by the factors noted above that impacted revenue and segment profit.

 

New awards for the three months ended June 30, 2014 were $1.2 billion compared to $3.6 billion for the second quarter of 2013. The current year period included a new award for a large manufacturing facility in the United States. Backlog decreased to $9.2 billion as of June 30, 2014 compared to $16.2 billion as of June 30, 2013. This decline was due to the work-off of backlog outpacing the reduced new award activity in the mining and metals business line since the second quarter of last year and the cancellation of a mining project during the fourth quarter of 2013 which removed $1.8 billion of backlog. The mining and metals business line has experienced the deferral of major capital investment decisions by most mining customers due to softening commodity demand and project-specific circumstances. The timing of when capital investment by these mining customers could resume is uncertain.

 

Total assets in the Industrial & Infrastructure segment were $896 million as of June 30, 2014 compared to $910 million as of December 31, 2013.

Revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 decreased 11 percent and 16 percent, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year. A majority of the decrease for both periods was due to a reduction in project execution activities for the LOGCAP IV Project in Afghanistan. Both of the three month and six month current year periods benefitted from volume increases from the Savannah River Site Management and Operating Project in South Carolina, which contributed lower revenue in the prior year as a result of the federal government’s budget sequestration, and the recently awarded Strategic Petroleum Reserve Project.

 

Segment profit for the three months ended June 30, 2014 was essentially flat when compared to the same period of the prior year. Items that affected segment profit in the current year quarter, which included the decline in volume for LOGCAP IV and lower contributions from certain other projects, were similar in magnitude to the $17 million charge that was taken in the second quarter of 2013, as the result of an adverse judgment associated with the company’s final claim on an embassy project. Segment profit for the six months ended June 30, 2014 decreased 52 percent compared to the first six months of the prior year, primarily as a result of reduced contributions from LOGCAP IV. In the six month period of the prior year, the previously mentioned second quarter 2013 embassy charge was partially offset by the favorable effect of the close-out of certain prior year indirect rates in the first quarter of 2013.

 

Segment profit margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was 2.3 percent and 2.2 percent, respectively, compared to 2.0 percent and 3.9 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. The decline in the segment profit margin for the first six months of 2014 compared to the corresponding period of the prior year was primarily due to the factors noted above affecting revenue and segment profit.

 

New awards for the three months ended June 30, 2014 were $3.1 billion compared to $256 million for the same period in the prior year. The current quarter new awards included a multi-year nuclear decommissioning project in the United Kingdom and the fourth option year under LOGCAP IV. Backlog was $5.2 billion as of June 30, 2014 compared to $531 million as of June 30, 2013. The increase in backlog is due to the current quarter new award of the multi-year nuclear decommissioning project noted above, the first quarter 2014 new award of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve Project and the inclusion in backlog of the unfunded portion of multi-year government contract awards which the company began reporting in its backlog as of December 31, 2013 to be more comparable to industry practice. Total backlog included $4.0 billion of unfunded government contracts as of June 30, 2014.

 

Total assets in the Government segment decreased to $512 million as of June 30, 2014 from $581 million as of December 31, 2013, primarily due to a reduction in working capital to support the declining volume of LOGCAP IV project execution activities.

Revenue decreased six percent for the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 due to the equipment business line’s reduced volume of mining-related activities in Latin America, partially offset by improved equipment rental activities in Mexico. Revenue decreased five percent for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the

 

27



Table of Contents

 

corresponding period in the prior year, principally due to the equipment business line. Decreased volume in equipment rental activities in Africa and Latin America for the first half of 2014 was somewhat offset by increased volume in Mexico and North America.

 

Segment profit for the three months ended June 30, 2014 decreased 28 percent compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013, principally as the result of reduced contributions from the equipment business line in Latin America. Segment profit decreased 30 percent for the first six months of 2014 compared to the first six months of 2013, primarily as the result of the net volume decrease in the equipment business line, as mentioned above. The continued transition to a new business model in the supply chain solutions business line and start-up costs for joint venture companies in the fabrication business line also contributed to the segment profit decrease and more than offset an improvement in segment profit by the temporary staffing business line.

 

Segment profit margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was 13.7 percent and 13.4 percent, respectively, compared to 17.9 percent and 18.2 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. The decreases in segment profit margin were the net result of the factors that reduced revenue and segment profit, as discussed above.

 

The equipment, temporary staffing and supply chain solutions business lines do not report backlog or new awards.

 

Total assets in the Global Services segment were $822 million as of June 30, 2014 compared to $759 million as of December 31, 2013.

Revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 decreased significantly compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, principally due to a decrease in project execution activities on two solar power projects in the western United States and a gas-fired power plant in Texas that are all progressing towards completion.

 

Segment profit and segment profit margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 increased compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, primarily due to an accrual in the second quarter of 2014 for the reimbursement of $17 million of certain qualified expenditures as part of a cost-sharing award with the U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”) and NuScale. The NuScale expenses, included in the determination of segment profit, were $4 million and $17 million (net of the $17 million accrual for both periods), respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and $13 million and $28 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. In addition, exclusive of NuScale, the net overall performance of the segment’s projects declined in the current year periods when compared to the prior year periods, with no single project being individually significant.

 

The operations of NuScale are primarily for research and development activities associated with the licensing and commercialization of small modular nuclear reactor technology. Although part of the Power segment, these activities could provide future benefits to both commercial and government clients. In May 2014, NuScale entered into a Cooperative Agreement establishing the terms and conditions of a multi-year funding award totaling $217 million under the DOE’s Small Modular Reactor Licensing Technical Support Program. This cost-sharing award allows NuScale to use the DOE funds to cover first-of-a-kind engineering costs associated with small modular reactor design development and certification. The DOE will provide cost reimbursement for up to 43 percent of qualified expenditures incurred during the period from June 1, 2014 to May 31, 2019. The Cooperative Agreement also provides for reimbursement of pre-award costs incurred from September 18, 2013 to May 31, 2014. The company will recognize the cost-sharing award as a reduction of “Total cost of revenue” in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings and, correspondingly, as an increase to segment profit in the period for which the related costs are recognized, with the exception of certain pre-award costs which were recognized in the second quarter of 2014 upon entering into the cost-sharing agreement. A portion of the DOE cost-sharing award has been funded, with funding for future years subject to U.S. Congressional appropriations.

Although there has been a recent increase in bidding and proposal activity, the Power segment continues to be affected by relatively weak demand for new power generation. Market segments with the most likely near term opportunities include gas-fired combined cycle generation, renewable energy, and air emissions compliance projects for existing coal-fired power plants. New awards in the second quarter of 2014 were $38 million compared to $59 million in the second quarter of 2013. Backlog was $1.7 billion as of June 30, 2014 and $1.6 billion as of June 30, 2013.

 

Total assets in the Power segment were $129 million as of June 30, 2014 and $155 million as of December 31, 2013.

 

Other

 

Corporate general and administrative expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was $57 million and $94 million, respectively, compared to $32 million and $65 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. The increases for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 compared to the corresponding periods of the prior year were primarily attributable to higher compensation expense (much of it stock price-driven) and organizational realignment expense (mostly severance). Net interest expense was $3 million and $6 million during the three and six months periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, compared to $2 million and $5 million during the corresponding periods of 2013. Income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 is discussed above under “— Summary.”

LITIGATION AND MATTERS IN DISPUTE RESOLUTION

 

See Note 14 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

 

Liquidity is provided by available cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, cash generated from operations, credit facilities and access to capital markets. The company has committed and uncommitted lines of credit totaling $5.4 billion, which may be used for revolving loans, letters of credit and/or general purposes. The company believes that for at least the next 12 months, cash generated from operations, along with its unused credit capacity of $4.2 billion and substantial cash position, is sufficient to support operating requirements. However, the company regularly reviews its sources and uses of liquidity and may pursue opportunities to increase its liquidity position. The company’s conservative financial strategy and consistent performance have earned it strong credit ratings, resulting in competitive advantage and continued access to the capital markets. As of June 30, 2014, the company was in compliance with all its covenants related to its debt agreements. The company’s total debt to total capitalization (“debt-to-capital”) ratio as of June 30, 2014 was 12.6 percent compared to 12.3 percent as of December 31, 2013.

 

Cash Flows

 

Cash and cash equivalents were $2.2 billion as of June 30, 2014 compared to $2.3 billion as of December 31, 2013. Cash and cash equivalents combined with current and noncurrent marketable securities were $2.7 billion as of both June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Cash and cash equivalents are held in numerous accounts throughout the world to fund the company’s global project execution activities. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, non-U.S. cash and cash equivalents amounted to $1.2 billion and $1.1 billion, respectively. Non-U.S. cash and cash equivalents exclude deposits of U.S. legal entities that are either swept into overnight, offshore accounts or invested in short-term, offshore time deposits, for which there is unrestricted access. The company did not consider any cash to be permanently reinvested overseas as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 and, as a result, has accrued the U.S. deferred tax liability on foreign earnings, as appropriate.

 

Operating Activities

 

Cash flows from operating activities result primarily from earnings sources and are affected by changes in operating assets and liabilities which consist primarily of working capital balances. Working capital levels vary from period to period and are primarily affected by the company’s volume of work. These levels are also impacted by the mix, stage of completion and commercial terms of engineering and construction projects, as well as the company’s execution of its projects within budget. Working capital requirements also vary by project and relate to clients in various industries and locations throughout the world. Most contracts require payments as the projects progress. The company evaluates the counterparty credit risk of third parties as

 

29



Table of Contents

 

part of its project risk review process and in determining the appropriate level of reserves. The company maintains adequate reserves for potential credit losses and generally such losses have been minimal and within management’s estimates. Additionally, certain projects receive advance payments from clients. A normal trend for these projects is to have higher cash balances during the initial phases of execution which then level out toward the end of the construction phase. As a result, the company’s cash position is reduced as customer advances are worked off, unless they are replaced by advances on other projects. The company maintains cash reserves and borrowing facilities to provide additional working capital in the event that a project’s net operating cash outflows exceed its available cash balances.

 

During the first half of 2014, working capital increased modestly due to an increase in accounts receivable partially offset by a decrease in contract work in progress. The drivers of these fluctuations were:

 

·                  An increase in accounts receivable in the Oil & Gas segment. The higher accounts receivable balance in 2014  resulted primarily from normal billing and collection activities for various projects, including the coal bed methane gas project in Australia, and was not indicative of any significant collection or liquidity issues.

·                  Decreases in contract work in progress in the Oil & Gas and Power segments that resulted primarily from normal project execution activities. A significant contributor to the decrease in contract work in progress in the Oil & Gas segment was the coal bed methane gas project in Australia. The decrease in contract work in progress in the Power segment resulted from numerous projects.

 

During the first half of 2013, working capital increased primarily due to increases in accounts receivable and contract work in progress and a decrease in advance billings. Significant drivers of these fluctuations were:

 

·                  Increases in accounts receivable in the Oil & Gas and Industrial & Infrastructure segments, which resulted principally from normal billing activities associated with numerous projects and was not indicative of any significant collection or liquidity issues.

·                  Increases in contract work in progress in the Oil & Gas and Industrial & Infrastructure segments that were partially offset by decreases in the Government segment. These fluctuations primarily resulted from normal project execution activities. A significant increase in contract work in progress for the Australian coal bed methane gas project in the Oil & Gas segment was offset by a decrease in work in progress for the LOGCAP IV Project in the Government segment.

·                  Decreases in advance billings in the Oil & Gas and Government segments, which were the result of normal project execution activities for several projects.

 

Cash provided by operating activities was $426 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to $236 million for the corresponding period of the prior year. The period-over-period improvement in cash flows from operating activities was primarily attributable to a significantly smaller net increase in working capital when comparing the two periods, with the largest contributor being a decrease in contract work in progress for the coal bed methane gas project in Australia in the Oil & Gas segment.

 

The company contributed approximately $12 million into its defined benefit pension plans during the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to $9 million during the corresponding period of the prior year. The company expects to fund approximately $30 million to $60 million during 2014.

 

In May 2014, NuScale entered into a Cooperative Agreement establishing the terms and conditions of a multi-year funding award totaling $217 million under the DOE’s Small Modular Reactor Licensing Technical Support Program. For further discussion of the Cooperative Agreement, see “Power” above.

 

                                 Investing Activities

 

Cash utilized by investing activities amounted to $107 million and $138 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The primary investing activities included purchases, sales and maturities of marketable securities, capital expenditures, disposals of property, plant and equipment, business acquisitions, and investments in and sales of partnerships and joint ventures. Investing activities during the first half of 2013 also included the consolidation of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) that had previously been accounted for using the proportionate consolidation method in which cash for this VIE was not required to be consolidated.

 

The company holds cash in bank deposits and marketable securities which are governed by the company’s investment policy. This policy focuses on, in order of priority, the preservation of capital, maintenance of liquidity and maximization of yield.

These investments include money market funds which invest in U.S. Government-related securities, bank deposits placed with highly-rated financial institutions, repurchase agreements that are fully collateralized by U.S. Government-related securities, high-grade commercial paper and high quality short-term and medium-term fixed income securities. During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, purchases of marketable securities exceeded proceeds from sales and maturities of such securities by $33 million and $39 million, respectively. The company held combined current and noncurrent marketable securities of $493 million and $461 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

 

Capital expenditures of $149 million and $122 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, primarily related to construction equipment associated with equipment operations in the Global Services segment, as well as investments in information technology and replacement or refurbishment of facilities. Proceeds from the disposal of property, plant and equipment of $47 million and $32 million during the first half of 2014 and 2013, respectively, primarily related to the disposal of construction equipment associated with the equipment operations in the Global Services segment.

 

During the first half of 2014, the company sold its interest in two joint ventures in the Industrial & Infrastructure segment for $44 million. The company had a 10 percent interest in both joint ventures and accounted for these investments using the equity method.

 

During the first half of 2013, the company paid $8 million to acquire an Australian-based company that specializes in fabrication and pressure welding. The company continues to make investments in partnerships or joint ventures primarily for the execution of single contracts or projects. Investments in unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures were $18 million and $33 million during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

 

Financing Activities

 

Cash utilized by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 of $421 million and $94 million, respectively, included company stock repurchases, company dividend payments to stockholders, repayments of debt and distributions paid to holders of noncontrolling interests.

 

Cash utilized by financing activities included the repurchase and cancellation of 4,212,685 shares of company’s common stock for $324 million in the first half of 2014 under its stock repurchase program.

 

Quarterly cash dividends are typically paid during the month following the quarter in which they are declared. Therefore, dividends declared in the fourth quarter of 2013 were paid in the first quarter of 2014. However, dividends declared in the fourth quarter of 2012 were paid in December 2012. Quarterly cash dividends of $0.21 per share and $0.16 per share were declared in the second quarter of 2014 and 2013, respectively. The payment and level of future cash dividends is subject to the discretion of the company’s Board of Directors.

 

In September 2011, the company issued $500 million of 3.375% Senior Notes (the “2011 Notes”) due September 15, 2021 and received proceeds of $492 million, net of underwriting discounts and debt issuance costs. Interest on the 2011 Notes is payable semi-annually on March 15 and September 15 of each year, and began on March 15, 2012. The company may, at any time, redeem the 2011 Notes at a redemption price equal to 100 percent of the principal amount, plus a “make whole” premium described in the indenture. Additionally, if a change of control triggering event occurs, as defined by the terms of the indenture, the company will be required to offer to purchase the 2011 Notes at a purchase price equal to 101 percent of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase. The company is generally not limited under the indenture governing the 2011 Notes in its ability to incur additional indebtedness provided the company is in compliance with certain restrictive covenants, including restrictions on liens and restrictions on sale and leaseback transactions. These covenants are not expected to impact the company’s liquidity or capital resources.

 

In February 2004, the company issued $330 million of 1.5% Convertible Senior Notes (the “2004 Notes”) due February 15, 2024 and received proceeds of $323 million, net of underwriting discounts. Proceeds from the 2004 Notes were used to pay off the then-outstanding commercial paper and $100 million was used to obtain ownership of engineering and corporate office facilities in California through payoff of the lease financing. In December 2004, the company irrevocably elected to pay the principal amount of the 2004 Notes in cash. The 2004 Notes are convertible if a specified trading price of the company’s common stock (the “trigger price”) is achieved and maintained for a specified period. The trigger price condition was satisfied during the fourth quarter of 2013 and second quarter of 2014 and the 2004 Notes were therefore classified as short-term debt as of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2014, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, holders converted less than $0.1 million of the 2004 Notes in exchange for the principal balance owed in cash plus 1,727 shares of the company’s common stock. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, holders converted less than $0.1 million of the 2004 Notes in exchange for the principal balance owed in cash plus 61 shares of the company’s common stock. The company does not know the timing or principal amount of the remaining 2004 Notes that may be presented for conversion by the holders in the future. Additionally,

 

31



Table of Contents

 

the 2004 Notes are currently redeemable at the option of the company, in whole or in part, at 100 percent of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. Available cash balances will be used to satisfy any principal and interest payments. Shares of the company stock will be issued to satisfy any appreciation between the conversion price and the market price on the date of conversion.

 

During the first half of 2013, the company redeemed its 5.625% Municipal Bonds for $18 million, or 100% of their principal amount, and also paid $9 million on the remaining balances of various notes payable that were assumed in connection with the 2012 acquisition of an equipment company.

 

Distributions paid to holders of noncontrolling interests represent cash outflows to partners of consolidated partnerships or joint ventures created primarily for the execution of single contracts or projects. Distributions paid were $44 million and $46 million during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Distributions in both 2014 and 2013 primarily related to mining joint venture projects in Argentina and Australia.

 

Effect of Exchange Rate Changes on Cash

 

Unrealized translation gains and losses resulting from changes in functional currency exchange rates are reflected in the cumulative translation component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, some major foreign currencies strengthened against the U.S. dollar resulting in unrealized translation gains of $1 million related to cash held by foreign subsidiaries. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, most major foreign currencies weakened against the U.S. dollar resulting in unrealized translation losses of $53 million related to cash held by foreign subsidiaries. The cash held in foreign currencies will primarily be used for project-related expenditures in those currencies, and therefore the company’s exposure to exchange gains and losses is generally mitigated.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

Guarantees and Commitments

 

In May 2014, the company entered into a $1.7 billion Revolving Loan and Letter of Credit Facility Agreement (“Credit Facility”) that matures in 2019. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at rates based on the Eurodollar Rate or an alternative base rate, plus an applicable borrowing margin. The Credit Facility may be increased up to an additional $500 million subject to certain conditions, and contains customary financial and restrictive covenants, including a maximum ratio of consolidated debt to tangible net worth of one-to-one and a cap on the aggregate amount of debt of $750 million for the company’s subsidiaries. On the same day, the company terminated its $1.2 billion Revolving Performance Letter of Credit Facility Agreement dated December 14, 2010 and all outstanding letters of credit thereunder have been assigned or otherwise transferred to the new Credit Facility.

 

                                 In conjunction with the Credit Facility, the company also amended its existing $1.8 billion Revolving Loan and Letter of Credit Facility Agreement dated November 9, 2012 to extend the maturity date to May 2019 and increase the cap on the aggregate amount of debt for the company subsidiaries from $600 million to $750 million.

 

As of June 30, 2014, the company had a combination of committed and uncommitted lines of credit that totaled $5.4 billion. These lines may be used for revolving loans, letters of credit and/or general purposes. Letters of credit are provided in the ordinary course of business primarily to indemnify the company’s clients if the company fails to perform its obligations under its contracts. As of June 30, 2014, letters of credit and borrowings under credit facilities totaling $1.2 billion were outstanding under these committed and uncommitted lines of credit. As an alternative to letters of credit, surety bonds are used as a form of credit enhancement.

 

In the ordinary course of business, the company enters into various agreements providing performance assurances and guarantees to clients on behalf of certain consolidated and unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures and other jointly executed contracts. These agreements are entered into primarily to support the project execution commitments of these entities. The performance guarantees have various expiration dates ranging from mechanical completion of the facilities being constructed to a period extending beyond contract completion in certain circumstances. The maximum potential amount of future payments that the company could be required to make under outstanding performance guarantees, which represents the remaining cost of work to be performed by or on behalf of third parties under engineering and construction contracts, was estimated to be $14.1 billion as of June 30, 2014. Amounts that may be required to be paid in excess of estimated cost to complete contracts in progress are not estimable. For cost reimbursable contracts, amounts that may become payable pursuant to guarantee provisions are normally recoverable from the client for work performed under the contract. For lump-sum or fixed-price contracts, the performance guarantee amount is the cost to complete the contracted work less amounts remaining to be billed to the client

under the contract. Remaining billable amounts could be greater or less than the cost to complete. In those cases where costs exceed the remaining amounts payable under the contract, the company may have recourse to third parties, such as owners, co-venturers, subcontractors or vendors for claims. The company assessed its performance guarantee obligation as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 in accordance with ASC 460, “Guarantees” and the carrying value of the liability was not material.

 

Financial guarantees, made in the ordinary course of business in certain limited circumstances, are entered into with financial institutions and other credit grantors and generally obligate the company to make payment in the event of a default by the borrower. These arrangements may require the borrower to pledge collateral to support the fulfillment of the borrower’s obligation.

 

Variable Interest Entities

 

In the normal course of business, the company forms partnerships or joint ventures primarily for the execution of single contracts or projects. The company evaluates each partnership and joint venture to determine whether the entity is a VIE. If the entity is determined to be a VIE, the company assesses whether it is the primary beneficiary and needs to consolidate the entity.

 

For further discussion of the company’s VIEs, see Note 16 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
