HOUSTON, TX --(Marketwired - July 29, 2016) - KBR, Inc. (
Net income attributable to KBR was $47 million or $0.32 per diluted share ($0.35 per diluted share excluding $4 million in pre-tax U.S. Government legacy legal fees) in the second quarter of 2016 compared to net income of $62 million or $0.43 per diluted share ($0.46 per diluted share excluding $5 million in legacy legal fees) in the second quarter of 2015. Results in the second quarter of 2015 included a $28 million pre-tax gain on the sale of a non-strategic business. Consolidated revenue in the second quarter of 2016 was $1.0 billion compared to $1.4 billion in the second quarter of 2015 ($1.2 billion excluding 2Q15 revenues of businesses divested or deconsolidated during 2015).
"KBR's transformation and strategic discipline continues to result in strong financial performance supported by growing demand for our government services and despite challenges in the hydrocarbons sector. On July 1, we closed on the acquisition of Wyle, Inc. which will operate under the brand name 'KBRwyle.' This business combined with our existing government services franchise provides us with an increasing proportion of higher margin, long-term, annuity-type contracts which are seeing increased synergy with our E&C technical personnel. This quarter, KBR was awarded two contract extensions with the U.S. Department of Defense and a multi-year services contract for the Australian Defense Department. Our opportunity pipeline continues to grow and the Government Services and Technology businesses provide greater visibility into earnings in 2017 and beyond," said Stuart Bradie, President and Chief Executive Officer of KBR, Inc.
"Our second quarter 2016 results also reflect continued progress against our cost reduction targets. We are on track to exceed the year-end 2016 targets with at least $200 million in annual cost savings already identified and actioned to date. These are net savings and reflect the total overhead cost reductions that are partially offset by reduced volumes of costs chargeable to contracts. Directionally significant, we reached agreement with the U.S. government on reimbursement of previously incurred legal fees plus any potential further legal costs and plaintiff awards related to the legacy sodium dichromate legal disputes. We continued with a balanced capital allocation policy through the acquisition of Wyle and the payment of a competitive yielding dividend, and our Balance Sheet provides us with future optionality," Bradie said.
Business Discussion (All comparisons are second quarter 2016 versus second quarter 2015 unless otherwise noted.)
Technology & Consulting (T&C) Results
Technology & Consulting gross profit was $15 million, down $6 million from the prior year while revenue increased by $18 million to $98 million. The strong sales reflect a continuing trend from 4Q15 of an increase in the proportion of proprietary equipment sales which carry lower margins than technology license sales. Almost 60% of revenue in 2Q16 was derived from proprietary equipment sales compared to 25% in the same period last year. While this has reduced the segment's margin percentages below 20% in 2016, we believe this is more of a timing issue and continue to expect the long-term margin percentages for this business to be in the low twenties.
The integration of the technology acquisitions made earlier this year is substantially complete and we continue to seek opportunities to supplement our current technology portfolio. The smaller upstream consulting portion of the T&C business remains challenged from reduced volume of business caused by low oil prices.
Engineering & Construction (E&C) Results
Engineering & Construction gross profit was $35 million, down $17 million from the prior year. The reduction in gross profit was due primarily to increased costs during plant start-up of an EPC ammonia project in the U.S. related to equipment failure and to reduced project activity including a major LNG project in Australia. This reduction was partially offset by a gain on closeout activities of an LNG project in Africa.
Revenue was $621 million, a decrease of $332 million mainly due to the deconsolidation of KBR's Americas Industrial Services business which had revenues of $119 million in 2Q15, lower revenue on an LNG project in Australia as the project moves towards completion, and reduced activity on a number of other projects.
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates was $23 million, down $17 million, predominantly due to a favorable earnings adjustment in 2Q15 that did not reoccur in 2016 on our offshore maintenance joint venture in Mexico.
Government Services (GS) Results
Government Services gross profit was $41 million, an increase of $42 million, while revenue was $229 million, an increase of $71 million from the prior year. This increase was due to expansion of existing U.S. government contracts and task orders supporting the U.S. Military and from the successful agreement with the U.S. government regarding reimbursement of $33 million in legal fees related to the sodium dichromate legal disputes. The agreement also covers reimbursement of future legal fees and any potential future awards to plaintiffs under the Restore Iraqi Oil (RIO) contract. The company also incurred approximately $4 million in legal fees in 2Q16 relating to the legacy LogCap III and other matters from the RIO contract.
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates was $10 million, down $3 million, and primarily driven by higher earnings from a U.K Ministry of Defence construction project that was nearing completion in 2015 that did not reoccur in 2Q16. Equity in earnings reflects continued strong performance on joint venture annuity type contracts in the U.K.
Looking forward, KBR along with KBRwyle now has significant capabilities and service offerings that span the full spectrum of government mission requirements including research and development, testing, engineering, logistics, deployed operations, and life-cycle sustainment. The acquisition is expected to be accretive to KBR's earnings per share in 2016 and we continue to seek additional high-end government services acquisition targets. KBR also remains well placed in sole source negotiations on the U.K. MoD's large scale Army 2020 rebasing contract and expect a client decision later this year. Growth expectations also include expansion of the company's international base operating support services and task orders supporting the U.S. Military in 2016.
Non-Strategic Business (NSB) Results
Non-Strategic Business had a gross loss of $17 million in the quarter driven by higher subcontractor costs forecast to complete a power project as that project moves toward completion in early 2017. Revenue was $61 million, down $129 million, primarily related to the sale of the Building Group business unit in 2Q15 which had revenues of approximately $55 million in 2Q15 and from reduced activities on two recently completed power projects.
Strategic Actions Update
During the second quarter, the company incurred $12 million in pre-tax restructuring costs primarily related to severance costs and recorded a $2 million pre-tax gain mainly due to the disposition of certain Corporate real estate assets. The company continues to rebalance its business portfolio to focus on International Government Services and Global Hydrocarbons.
Guidance
The company reiterates its full year 2016 fully diluted earnings per share guidance of between $1.20 and $1.45 per share, excluding legal costs associated with legacy U.S. Government contracts and including results for KBRwyle for the second half of 2016 which are expected to add between $0.05 and $0.08 per share. KBR expects the legacy legal costs to be approximately $15 million, or $0.11 per fully diluted share in 2016. The estimated legacy legal fees do not assume any cost reimbursement from the U.S. Government that could occur in the future.

| (a) | Backlog is presented differently depending on whether the contract is consolidated by KBR or is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Backlog related to consolidated projects is presented as 100% of the expected revenue from the project. Backlog generally includes total expected revenues in backlog when a contract is awarded under a legally binding commitment. In many instances, arrangements included in backlog are complex, nonrepetitive and may fluctuate depending on estimated revenues and contract duration. Where contract duration is indefinite and clients can terminate for convenience at any time without having to compensate us for periods beyond the date of termination, projects included in backlog are limited to the estimated amount of expected revenue within the following twelve months. Certain contracts provide maximum dollar limits, with actual authorization to perform work under the contract agreed upon on a periodic basis with the customer. In these arrangements, only the amounts authorized are included in backlog. For projects where we act solely in a project management capacity, we only include the value of our services on each project in backlog. KBR calculates estimated backlog for long-term contracts associated with the U.K. government's privately financed initiatives or projects ("PFIs") based on the dollar equivalent value of work our client is contractually obligated to pay us over the term of the contract. This amount includes the contractual minimum payments plus the value of work to be performed over the life of the contract. We update our assessment of the future work to be executed under these contracts on a quarterly basis and adjust backlog if necessary. As part of the acquisition of Wyle, we are currently reviewing our backlog policies to determine if any changes are needed commencing in the third quarter of 2016 to reflect the high value engineering service contracts common in that business. Included in the backlog table above is our proportionate share of unconsolidated joint ventures' estimated revenues. However, because these projects are accounted for under the equity method, only our share of future earnings from these projects will be recorded in our results of operations. Our backlog for projects related to unconsolidated joint ventures totaled $7.7 billion at June 30, 2016 and $8.5 billion at December 31, 2015. Our backlog included in the table above for projects related to consolidated joint ventures with noncontrolling interest totaled $175 million and $285 million at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. KBR estimates that as of June 30, 2016, 38% of our backlog will be executed within one year. Of this amount, 64% will be recognized in revenues on our condensed consolidated statement of operations and 36% will be recorded by our unconsolidated joint ventures. As of June 30, 2016, 23% of our backlog was attributable to fixed-price contracts, 49% was attributable to PFI's, and 28% of our backlog was attributable to cost-reimbursable contracts. For contracts that contain both fixed-price and cost-reimbursable components, we classify the individual components as either fixed-price or cost-reimbursable according to the composition of the contract; however, for smaller contracts, we characterize the entire contract based on the predominant component. |
