HOUSTON, Aug. 5, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Quanta Services, Inc. (NYSE: PWR) today announced results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015. On August 4, 2015, Quanta completed the sale of all of its fiber optic licensing operations. Accordingly, Quanta has presented the fiber optic licensing operations for the current and prior periods as discontinued operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, supplemental data and reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures.

Revenues in the second quarter of 2015 were $1.87 billion compared to revenues of $1.84 billion in the second quarter of 2014. Net income attributable to common stock (which includes the results of the fiber optic licensing operations and is therefore most comparable to Quanta's second quarter 2015 guidance) was $46.1 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2015, versus $81.1 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2014. Included in net income attributable to common stock for the second quarter of 2015 was the net benefit of $1.6 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, associated with certain tax and acquisition-related items.

"We are experiencing challenges in the near term, resulting in disappointing financial results for the second quarter and a reduction in our guidance for the year. However, we remain optimistic about the multi-year outlook of our business. Second quarter results were impacted by project execution challenges, revenue shortfalls from project delays, and adverse weather conditions affecting project productivity in many of our service areas," said Jim O'Neil, president and chief executive officer of Quanta Services. "Our revised financial outlook for the remainder of 2015 primarily reflects delays in certain large projects from this calendar year into 2016, as well as further impacts to areas of our business sensitive to the current oil price environment.

"Despite these headwinds, we expect positive developments to occur in the near future that support our business outlook. In our oil and gas segment, we anticipate significant mainline pipe project awards both domestically and in Canada that will contribute materially to our mainline pipe operations over the next several years. In our electric power segment, we are bidding or negotiating multiple large transmission projects that should materialize over the coming year and complement increasing demand for our distribution, renewable energy, and sub-transmission services. Our total backlog continues at near record levels, and we remain confident in our ability to execute within our historical margin profile.

"Demonstrating confidence in our business and our commitment to deliver value to stockholders, our board of directors authorized a new $1.25 billion stock repurchase program, and the company intends to execute a $750 million accelerated stock repurchase arrangement as part of this program. This is the largest stock repurchase program in Quanta's history and is in addition to the $500 million stock repurchase program we recently completed," concluded Mr. O'Neil.

Net income from continuing operations attributable to common stock (which excludes the results of the fiber optic licensing operations) was $32.0 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2015, versus $73.5 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2014. Included within net income from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2015 are combined net charges of $6.7 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, associated with certain tax law changes and acquisition-related items.

Adjusted diluted earnings per share from net income attributable to common stock and adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations (both of which are non-GAAP measures) were $0.26 and $0.24 for the second quarter of 2015 compared to $0.42 and $0.39 for the second quarter of 2014.

Revenues for the first six months of 2015 were $3.73 billion compared to revenues of $3.57 billion in the first six months of 2014. Net income attributable to common stock was $99.6 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, for the first six months of 2015 versus $135.5 million, or $0.62 per diluted share, for the first six months of 2014. Included in net income attributable to common stock for the first six months of 2014 was $38.8 million ($25.8 million net of tax) of incremental selling, general and administrative expense associated with an arbitration decision related to a contract dispute on a 2010 directional drilling project. Adjusted diluted earnings per share from net income attributable to common stock (a non-GAAP measure) was $0.57 per diluted share for the first six months of 2015 compared to $0.86 per diluted share for the first six months of 2014.

Net income from continuing operations attributable to common stock was $79.7 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, in the first six months of 2015 compared to $120.9 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, in the first six months of 2014. Adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations (a non-GAAP measure) was $0.52 for the first six months of 2015 compared to $0.79 for the first six months of 2014.

The adjusted diluted earnings per share measures used in this earnings release are calculated as GAAP diluted earnings per share before acquisition and integration costs, as well as certain non-cash items such as amortization of intangible assets and non-cash compensation expense, and certain other items that affect comparability of results between periods. See the attached table for a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to the reported GAAP measures.

Quanta completed six acquisitions in the first half of 2015 and three acquisitions in the second half of 2014. Therefore, the results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 included these acquisitions from their respective acquisition dates and are compared to the pre-acquisition historical results of Quanta for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

RECENT HIGHLIGHTS


    --  Authorized New $1.25 Billion Stock Repurchase Program - Quanta's board
        of directors has authorized the company to repurchase, from time to time
        through Feb. 28, 2017, up to $1.25 billion in shares of its outstanding
        common stock through open market repurchases or privately negotiated
        transactions, at management's discretion. To implement a portion of this
        program, the company intends to enter into a $750 million accelerated
        stock repurchase ("ASR") arrangement in the near term.
    --  Completed Previous $500 Million Stock Repurchase Program - In the second
        quarter, Quanta acquired approximately 5.8 million shares of its common
        stock in the open market for a total cost of approximately $172 million.
        Subsequent to the end of the second quarter, the company acquired
        approximately 1.8 million shares of its common stock in the open market
        for a total cost of approximately $52 million, which completed the $500
        million stock repurchase program authorized at the end of 2013. In total
        under that program, Quanta repurchased approximately 17.4 million shares
        of its common stock for a total cost of approximately $500 million.
    --  Selected for Norlite Pipeline Project - In May 2015, Enbridge Pipelines
        (Athabasca) Inc. selected Banister Pipelines Constructors Corp., a
        Quanta Services company, for Package A of the Norlite Pipeline Project.
        The project is expected to begin construction in the third quarter and
        includes the installation of approximately 125 miles (200 kilometers) of
        up to 24 inch diameter pipeline from the Enbridge Stonefell site to the
        Suncor East Tank farm near Fort McMurray. Construction is expected to be
        complete in the spring of 2017.
    --  Closed the Sale of Fiber Optic Licensing Operations - Yesterday, Quanta
        closed the sale of its fiber optic licensing operations to Crown Castle
        International Corp. for approximately $1 billion in cash, resulting in
        approximately $830 million in after-tax net proceeds. This transaction
        unlocked the substantial value in the fiber optic licensing operations
        and enables the company to enhance its strategic focus on energy
        infrastructure markets.
    --  Acquired Three Companies in the Third Quarter - During the third quarter
        of 2015, Quanta has completed three acquisitions. The companies acquired
        include a foundation services company and an electrical infrastructure
        services contractor, both located in the United States, and an
        electrical engineering company located in Australia. All of these
        companies are included in Quanta's Electric Power Infrastructure
        Services segment. The aggregate consideration paid or payable for these
        acquisitions includes approximately $28.8 million in cash, subject to
        net working capital and other adjustments, and shares of Quanta common
        stock valued at approximately $7.7 million.

OUTLOOK
The long-term outlook for Quanta's business is positive. However, short-term financial results have been impacted by adverse weather conditions, execution challenges on certain larger projects, a higher effective tax rate, the adverse effect of currency translation, and project delays due to regulatory, permitting and other challenges. Some of these issues are expected to continue to impact results in the near term. Therefore, Quanta's financial outlook for revenues, margins and earnings reflects management's efforts to properly align these uncertainties with the backlog the company is executing on and the opportunities expected to materialize during the remainder of 2015. The following forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, and actual results may differ materially.

Quanta completed the sale of its fiber optic licensing operations, and as such, Quanta's third quarter and full year financial outlook from continuing operations excludes the financial contribution of these operations. Quanta's previous full year guidance, excluding the fiber optic licensing operations, was revenues of $8.0 to $8.4 billion and diluted earnings per share of $1.58 to $1.77.

Quanta expects revenues for the third quarter of 2015 to range between $1.9 billion and $2.0 billion and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations to be $0.34 to $0.40. Amortization of intangibles and non-cash stock-based compensation expense are forecasted to be approximately $8.7 million and $10.1 million for the third quarter of 2015. Quanta expects adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations (a non-GAAP measure) for the third quarter of 2015 to be $0.40 to $0.46. This non-GAAP measure is estimated on a basis similar to the calculations of historical adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations presented in this press release. Quanta expects discontinued operations for the third quarter of 2015 to contribute approximately $175 million, or approximately $0.84 per diluted share, which includes the estimated net after-tax gain on sale of the fiber optic licensing operations.

Quanta expects revenues for the full year 2015 to range between $7.5 billion and $7.7 billion and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations to be $1.05 to $1.20. Quanta expects adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations (a non-GAAP measure) for the full year 2015 to be $1.32 to $1.47. These revenue and earnings per share ranges reflect the lower than anticipated financial results in the first half of the year. They also reflect an expectation that the challenges affecting Quanta's oil and gas infrastructure segment and Canadian electric power infrastructure services, including the uncertainty in the Canadian economy and delays in the timing of awarded and anticipated large projects, will continue to impact results through the remainder of the year. They also reflect a higher effective tax rate for the full year as compared to the full year of 2014 due to a lower proportion of income earned from international jurisdictions, which is typically taxed at lower statutory rates. In addition, these ranges assume currency rates remain the same and exclude the benefit of potential additional stock repurchases during the remainder of the year. Amortization of intangibles and non-cash stock-based compensation expense are forecasted to be approximately $34.4 million and $39.3 million for the full year 2015. Quanta's expectations for continuing operations also exclude its former fiber optic licensing operations, as they are now classified as discontinued operations.

SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCIAL MEASURES
Quanta has provided additional unaudited financial information that has been recast to show the impact to prior periods of the presentation of Quanta's fiber optic licensing operations as discontinued operations. This financial information includes consolidated statements of operations, earnings per share and segment data, as well as backlog and other non-GAAP information, for quarterly and year-to-date periods. This information, along with reconcilliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to reported GAAP measures, is available on Quanta's website (www.quantaservices.com) in the "Investors & Media" section, and has been furnished in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 5, 2015.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
The non-GAAP measures in this press release and on Quanta's website are provided to enable investors, analysts and management to evaluate Quanta's performance excluding the effects of certain items that management believes impact the comparability of operating results between reporting periods. In addition, management believes these measures are useful in comparing Quanta's operating results with those of its competitors. These measures should be used in addition to, and not in lieu of, results prepared in conformity with GAAP. Reconciliations of other GAAP to non-GAAP measures not included in the table attached to this press release can be found on the company's website at www.quantaservices.com in the "Investors & Media" section.

Backlog
Backlog is not a term recognized under United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP); however, it is a common measurement used in the industry. Quanta's methodology for determining backlog may not be comparable to the methodologies used by other companies. Quanta's backlog represents the amount of consolidated revenue that it expects to realize from future work under construction contracts, long-term maintenance contracts and master service agreements. These estimates include revenues from the remaining portion of firm orders not yet completed and on which work has not yet begun, as well as revenues from change orders, renewal options, and funded and unfunded portions of government contracts to the extent that they are reasonably expected to occur. For purposes of calculating backlog, Quanta includes 100% of estimated revenues attributable to consolidated joint ventures and variable interest entities. The following table presents Quanta's total backlog by reportable segment as of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, along with an estimate of the backlog amounts expected to be realized within 12 months of each balance sheet date (in millions):

    The non-GAAP measure of adjusted diluted earnings per share is provided to enable investors to evaluate performance excluding the effects of items that management believes impact the comparability of operating
     results between periods. As to certain of the items below, (i) amortization of intangible assets is impacted by Quanta's acquisition activity, which can cause these amounts to vary from period to period; (ii)
     non-cash stock-based compensation expense may vary due to acquisition activity, factors influencing the estimated fair value of performance-based awards, forfeiture rates, accelerated vesting and amounts
     granted during the period; (iii) acquisition costs vary period to period depending on the level of Quanta's acquisition activity ongoing during the period; and (iv) the expense associated with the arbitration
     decision is not a regularly occurring operational item.
