HOUSTON, Aug. 4, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Quanta Services, Inc. (NYSE: PWR) today announced results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. Revenues in the second quarter of 2016 were $1.79 billion and net income from continuing operations attributable to common stock was $16.6 million, or $0.11 per diluted share. Quanta's operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2016 were negatively impacted by a project loss of approximately $30.5 million ($18.6 million net of tax, or $0.12 per diluted share) that resulted from a claimed force majeure event and continued engineering and production issues on a power plant construction project in Alaska. Operating results were also impacted by lower than anticipated revenues and margins in the oil and gas segment, which were attributable to delayed project starts and, to a lesser extent, wildfires in Alberta, Canada, as well as certain other negative project conditions. In addition, Quanta's operating results were negatively impacted by a higher than anticipated tax rate as the percentage of earnings from jurisdictions with higher tax rates increased.

"The power plant project continues to distort the earnings of our core electric operations, which have performed well in the first six months of the year. Further, activity in the large electric transmission project market is building, as evidenced by the two new projects announced in this release, and we continue to see substantial bidding activity," said Duke Austin, president and chief executive officer of Quanta Services. "Subsequent to the second quarter, we have mobilized and are preparing to mobilize on a number of large diameter pipeline projects, which support our expectations for meaningful increases in consolidated revenues, margins and earnings in the second half of this year. We continue to have a positive multi-year view on the end markets we serve and believe we are well positioned to serve the expanding needs of our customers."

Revenues in the second quarter of 2015 were $1.87 billion and net income from continuing operations attributable to common stock was $32.0 million, or $0.15 per diluted share. Included in Quanta's operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2015 were project losses of $25.1 million ($16.2 million net of tax, or $0.08 per diluted share) related to the same power plant construction project in Alaska and an electric transmission project in Canada. Also included in Quanta's net income from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2015 were combined charges of $7.2 million ($6.7 million net of tax, or $0.03 per diluted share) associated with certain tax law changes and acquisition-related items.

Adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations (a non-GAAP measure) was $0.18 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $0.24 for the three months ended June 30, 2015.

RECENT HIGHLIGHTS


    --  Selected for Large Electric Transmission & Distribution Project - In
        July 2016, Quanta was selected by a California-based utility for a large
        electric power transmission and distribution project located primarily
        in a national forest area in southern California. Led by CRUX
        Subsurface, Inc., a Quanta Services company, Quanta's scope of work
        includes the engineering, procurement and construction of the project,
        including rebuilding and replacing approximately 145 miles of 12 and 69
        kilovolt underground and overhead electric power infrastructure.
        Engineering and related services for the project have begun, and
        completion is anticipated in late 2019.
    --  Secured Contract for Midwest Transmission Line Project - In late June
        2016, PAR Electrical Contractors (PAR), a Quanta Services company, began
        construction on a new 100-mile double-circuit 345 kilovolt transmission
        line for a Midwest utility in its service territory. PAR's scope of work
        includes access roads, foundations, steel pole erection, wire stringing
        and material management. The project is scheduled to be completed in the
        third quarter of 2018.

RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2016 AND 2015

Revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2016 were $3.51 billion compared to revenues of $3.73 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2015. Net income from continuing operations attributable to common stock was $37.1 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, in the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to net income from continuing operations attributable to common stock of $79.7 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, in the six months ended June 30, 2015. Included in Quanta's operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was a project loss of approximately $51.8 million ($31.6 million net of tax, or $0.20 per diluted share) that resulted from continued engineering and production issues and a claimed force majeure event on a power plant construction project in Alaska. Included in Quanta's operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2015 were project losses of $41.3 million ($27.4 million net of tax, or $0.13 per diluted share) related to the same power plant construction project in Alaska and an electric transmission project in Canada.

Adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations (a non-GAAP measure) was $0.41 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $0.52 for the six months ended June 30, 2015.

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, amortization of intangible assets, non-cash compensation expense, and certain other items that affect comparability of results between periods. See the attached table for a reconciliation of adjusted diluted earnings per share (a non-GAAP measure) to GAAP diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.

Quanta completed three acquisitions during the first six months of 2016 and five acquisitions during the second half of 2015. Therefore, the results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 included these acquisitions from the respective acquisition dates and are compared to the pre-acquisition historical results of Quanta for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015.

OUTLOOK

The long-term outlook for Quanta's business is positive. However, weather, regulatory, permitting, project timing, execution challenges and other factors have impacted the company's historical results, and may impact Quanta's future financial results. Therefore, Quanta's financial outlook for revenues, margins and earnings reflects management's effort to properly align these uncertainties with the backlog the company is executing on and the opportunities expected to materialize during 2016. The following forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, and actual results may differ materially.

Quanta expects a meaningful increase in revenues, margins and earnings during the second half of 2016, as compared to the first half of 2016, due to a significant increase in the number of larger pipeline projects anticipated to be in construction during the period. Our outlook includes estimates for project start dates, which as of the timing of this earnings release, we believe are probable based on customer communications. However, variances in these estimated start dates could lead to revenue and earnings results that differ materially from our current estimates. Furthermore, some of these projects are larger in contract value, and performance of any individual project that significantly exceeds or is less than our current estimates for such projects could materially impact our earnings results. Quanta's outlook does not assume any recovery of the project losses recognized to date on the power plant project in Alaska, even though the company is pursuing various remedies for recovery of such losses.

Quanta expects revenues for the full year 2016 to range between $7.75 billion and $8.0 billion and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations to be $1.20 to $1.35. Quanta expects adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations (a non-GAAP measure) for the full year 2016 to be $1.52 to $1.67. See the attached table for a reconciliation of estimated adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations to estimated GAAP diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the full year 2016.

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, 2016,
     December 31, 2015 and June 30,
     2015, along with an estimate of
     the backlog amounts expected to be
     realized within 12 months of each
     balance sheet date (in millions):

              Quanta Services, Inc. and Subsidiaries

    For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

           Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

        Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share from Continuing
                             Operations

            (In thousands, except per share information)

                            (Unaudited)


    The non-GAAP measure of adjusted diluted earnings per
     share from continuing operations, when used in connection
     with diluted earnings per share, is intended to provide
     useful information to investors and analysts as they
     evaluate Quanta's performance. Management believes that
     the exclusion of certain items from net income from
     continuing operations attributable to common stock
     enables it to more effectively evaluate Quanta's
     operations period over period and better identify
     operating trends that may not otherwise be apparent. 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 and integration costs vary period to period
     depending on the level of Quanta's acquisition activity
     ongoing during the period; (iv) severance costs related
     to the departure of Quanta's former president and chief
     executive officer and severance and restructuring costs
     associated with certain operations primarily within
     Quanta's Oil and Gas Infrastructure segment are not
     regularly occurring items; and (v) cumulative revaluation
     of certain deferred tax liabilities associated with an
     Alberta provincial income tax law change is not a
     regularly occurring item. Because adjusted diluted
     earnings per share, as defined, excludes some, but not
     all, items that affect net income from continuing
     operations attributable to common stock, adjusted diluted
     earnings per share as presented in this press release may
     or may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of
     other companies. The most comparable GAAP financial
     measure, net income from continuing operations
     attributable to common stock, and information reconciling
     the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures, are included
     below.  Reconciliations of other GAAP to non-GAAP
     measures not included in the table below can be found on
     the company's website at www.quantaservices.com in the
     "Investors & Media" section.

    (a) The amount for the three and
     six months ended June 30, 2015
     reflects the elimination of the
     non-recurring impact of the
     cumulative revaluation of certain
     deferred tax liabilities pursuant
     to an Alberta provincial income
     tax law change that became
     effective as of June 1, 2015.

    (b) The amount for the six months
     ended June 30, 2016 reflects the
     elimination of severance costs
     recognized in the first quarter
     of 2016 associated with the
     departure of Quanta's former
     president and chief executive
     officer and severance and
     restructuring costs associated
     with certain operations primarily
     within the Oil and Gas
     Infrastructure Services segment.

    (c) The tax impact of adjustments
     that are subject to tax are
     determined using the incremental
     statutory tax rate of the
     jurisdictions to which each

                Quanta Services, Inc. and Subsidiaries

                 For the Year Ended December 31, 2016

             Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

     Estimated Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share from Continuing
                               Operations

             (In thousands, except per share information)

                              (Unaudited)


    The non-GAAP measure of adjusted diluted earnings per share
     from continuing operations, when used in connection with
     diluted earnings per share, is intended to provide useful
     information to investors and analysts as they evaluate
     Quanta's performance. Management believes that the exclusion
     of certain items from net income from continuing operations
     attributable to common stock enables it to more effectively
     evaluate Quanta's operations period over period and better
     identify operating trends that may not otherwise be apparent.
     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 and integration costs vary period
     to period depending on the level of Quanta's acquisition
     activity ongoing during the period and (iv) severance costs
     related to the departure of Quanta's former president and
     chief executive officer and severance and restructuring costs
     associated with certain operations primarily within Quanta's
     Oil and Gas Infrastructure segment are not regularly
     occurring items. Because adjusted diluted earnings per share,
     as defined, excludes some, but not all, items that affect net
     income from continuing operations attributable to common
     stock, adjusted diluted earnings per share as presented in
     this press release may or may not be comparable to similarly
     titled measures of other companies. The most comparable GAAP
     financial measure, net income from continuing operations
     attributable to common stock, and information reconciling the
     GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures, are included below.
     Reconciliations of other GAAP to non-GAAP measures not
     included in the table below can be found on the company's
     website at www.quantaservices.com in the "Investors & Media"
     section.
