US Engineering & Construction

A Year of Transition: For 2017, we see the Engineering and Construction group as a year of transition. We agree the 2018 and beyond

outlook has improved for the group, reflecting the run in commodity prices and what that implies for energy and mining. Also while the timing

and magnitude remain unclear, the Trump administration on multiple levels (assuming execution and commitment to initiatives outlined

during the campaign) should be a positive for the group broadly. However for 2017, we still see some challenges ahead. We believe the

award front will still be challenged on the energy side, leading investors to question whether 2017 or 2018 is the trough for earnings.

Traditionally, E&C is very late cycle business and projects on the drawing board will have to be revisited to price-in current economics and

will go out for rebid delaying awards. Also, bellwethers like FLR and CBI, and to a lesser degree KBR, still need to work through problem

projects associated with taking fixed price work on the Gulf Coast. While third quarter issues were largely attributed to weather, there have

been rumblings that Gulf Coast labor in terms of skill set and productivity remains an issues. So in the absence of new awards, lack of

clarity on when earnings trough, and assuming execution issues are not behind us, will the market look past the news? We suspect we still

have at least a couple of challenged quarters ahead.

Potential for a Cycle of Base Hits Across Multiple Markets vs. Energy Supercycle: As we look to 2018 and beyond, we see

opportunity for E&C backlog to inflect higher although we expect this cycle to be different. Relative to super cycles in the past driven by

energy, we believe it is more realistic to see multiple markets to improve in tandem (energy, mining, infrastructure and gov’t) however more

muted in terms of dollars spend and overall project size. Within energy and mining, we believe it is reasonable to assume a more muted

cycle. In the short term, and in particular for 2017, we remain constructive on the pipeline outlook. This is obviously helped by Trump’s more

recent comments on Keystone and Dakota Access. Obviously, any type of infrastructure renaissance would benefit the group broadly, but

timing, shovel readiness, and funding of projects needs to be worked through. Furthermore, the infrastructure market tends to be more

competitive with private and local mouths to feed versus energy and/or power, where there are limited players with a resume to take on

multi-billion complex projects. Also, assuming the US economy improves and red tape associated with regulatory hurdles are lifted, we

could finally a see a power new gen cycle in the US but still likely gas. In summary, relative to previous super or mega cycles reliant on

elephant projects in energy, we see the potential end market growth across multiple markets at one time (oil and gas, mining, infrastructure

and power). However, the awards are likely more base hit in nature (vs. previous cycles) and diversified across markets. This should be a

positive longer term for the broader group.

Staying a Little More Defensive for Now: Given the run in the group, we believe it still makes sense to stay more defensive on names

with self-help vs. the higher beta names. We continue to favor PWR as one of the biggest players in pipeline, the absence of problem

projects and continued spend in electric transmission. We also favor JEC, with fewer energy headwinds and a compelling self-help story.

US Engineering & Construction

Infrastructure Exposed Names: Within our coverage universe, FLR, JEC and ACM are most levered assuming an infrastructure renaissance. We would note end market for

the group remains low as spend has been depressed. Instead we would look to which firms have the best capabilities assuming we get an infrastructure renaissance. Please

see the slide 7 for estimated market share based on Engineering News Record’s top contractor list. FLR and JEC have full engineering procurement and construction

capabilities. However, ACM now becomes a more formidable player this cycle, as it was historically known as more of a design-focused firm, but with the URS acquisition now

has full EPC capabilities.

Lots of Talk, Still Need Details: President Trump has talked about $1T of incremental spend dedicated to private infrastructure investment over the next decade. Still details

around funding the projects, timing, and whether or not these projects are truly shovel-ready remain in question. Contractors remain fairly realistic for the most part,

acknowledging that any bump from Trump policy would likely not be felt until late 2018 or early 2019 at the earliest.

The Need Is Clear: The US has underinvested in infrastructure since the late 1960’s, and most of the economic infrastructure in the country is now deficient. The ASCE

estimates that $3.6T of investment is needed b/w 2016-2020 to fund the various infrastructure systems across the country. However, funding for projects over this time period

is only contemplated at ~$2.0T, implying $1.6T of funding gaps. Nearly half of the funding gaps are associated with surface transportation projects for highways and bridges.

Infrastructure funding is a rare issue with bipartisan support and recent legislation at the Federal and State & Local level has helped.

Federal / S&L Funding Improving Modestly, PPP Should Help Under Trump: Funding has been constrained at the Federal level for highway and transit projects, though

recently got a shot in the arm from the $305B Highway Bill, which keeps the DoT solvent through 2021. Several states have stepped up to address infrastructure spend,

passing over $200B of measures during the election. Private / public-private-partnerships (PPP) investment could be another alternative, although the US lacks a national

framework for PPP work and only 37 states have passed PPP-enabling legislation.

Summary of Trump Infrastructure Policy Proposals

Trump Plan Relies on Passing Tax Reform: The plan is reliant on

comprehensive tax reform, including the passage of the 82% infrastructure credit,

which would likely come as a package deal with Trump’s corporate tax reforms.

The entire tax package will likely face an uphill battle in the Senate, which

requires 60 votes, implying Democrat votes are needed. Also some Democrats

have argued the 82% tax credit does not help fix infrastructure issues but

bolsters wealthy investor incomes.

Does Not Address Needed PPP Overhaul: Since much of the funding under

Trump’s plan will come from the private sector, PPP’s will naturally be a chief

investment vehicle. The US lags peers in terms of PPP funding because of a lack

of a national PPP framework (see charts to the right). Only 37 states have

passed PPP enabling legislation, and many elements vary b/w states.

Put Emphasis on New Projects vs. O&M: Trump’s plan naturally emphasizes

new projects with visible revenue streams (user fees, tolls, etc.) vs. O&M

projects, which are more needed and where funding is more difficult to secure.

Concerns & Additional Considerations PPP Spending as a Share of Total Infrastructure Spending (%)

Given the constraints at both the federal and state & local levels funding new infrastructure projects, Trump has put forth a series of reforms to attract private investment to

fund an estimated $1T of public infrastructure projects over the next ten years:

Infrastructure Investment Tax Credit: The Trump Private Sector Financing Plan calls for an infrastructure investment tax credit of 82% provided by the government to

private investors on the equity investment made in infrastructure projects. Trump estimates that the average leverage on projects will be b/w 5-6x implying that the total

equity investment to fund $1T of infrastructure projects is ~$167M. The goal of the tax credit is that the full amount of the equity investment remains as a cushion beneath

the debt, but from the investor’s point of view 82% of the commitment has been returned. Trump believes this will lower the cost of financing projects b/w 18-20%.

Tax Credit is Revenue Neutral: Trump has stated that his plan is revenue neutral. Lost tax revenues from the investment tax credit will be recouped from two main

sources: 1) payroll taxes from additional contractor wage income, and 2) corporate taxes on contractor profits.

Reduce Permitting and Approval Timeline: One of the criticisms of the Obama administration out of the financial crisis was its ineffective use of infrastructure stimulus.

The administration provided ~$840B of funding for “shovel ready” projects, though only 5% was effectively spend on timely investments tied to permitting and approval

processes that were excessively long. Trump has articulated a strategy link increases in spending to reforms to streamline the regulatory / approval process.

Roll-over of Repatriated Income: Trump has also proposed a roll-over mechanism for repatriated income. Under the proposal, Trump would provide a 10% one-time tax

holiday on repatriated corporate income that could be offset by a 12.1% infrastructure investment on the foreign cash (100% / 82%). This would essentially make the

repatriation process free, while incentivizing corporation to participate in infrastructure investment.

Infrastructure Spending in the U.S.

Gross Investment (% GDP) Average Age of Federal Fixed Assets (Years)

In the decades after World War II, the United States built an interstate highway system, hundreds of airports, a massive network of

waterworks, expanded port facilities, amongst other infrastructure investments.

Despite the heavy early investment in building infrastructure in the country, gross investment as a percentage of GDP has steadily declined.

While both states & local and federal investment rates have declined, the sharpest declines have been related to federal spending with

states spending at more elevated levels to plug funding gaps

Still, spending by state and local governments on all types of capital dropped from its high of 3 percent of the nation’s GDP in the late

1960s to less than 2 percent in 2014.

As a consequence of inadequate state & local and federal investment, the net age of fixed assets has steadily increased since the 1950’s.

Years of neglect have resulted in crumbling roads, bridges in need of repair, inadequate public transport, outdated school buildings, and

other critical infrastructure needs

American Society of Civil Engineers Scorecard for America’s Infrastructure

Scorecard of U.S. Infrastructure

Aviation

(D)

• The FAA estimates that the national cost of airport congestion and delays was almost $22B in 2012.

• If current federal funding levels are maintained, the FAA anticipates that the cost of congestion and delays to the economy will rise from $34B in 2020 to $63B by 2040.

Bridges

(C+)

• Over two hundred million trips are taken daily across deficient bridges in the nation’s 102 largest metropolitan regions. In total, one in nine of the nation’s bridges are rated as

structurally deficient, while the average age of the nation’s 607,380 bridges is currently 42 years.

• The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) estimates that to eliminate the nation’s bridge deficient backlog by 2028, we would need to invest $20.5 billion annually, while only

$12.8 billion is being spent currently.

• The challenge for federal, state, and local governments is to increase bridge investments by $8 billion annually to address the identified $76 billion in needs for deficient bridges.

Dams

(D)

• The average age of the 84,000 dams in the country is 52 years old. The nation’s dams are aging and the number of high-hazard dams is on the rise. Many of these dams were built

as low-hazard dams protecting undeveloped agricultural land. However, with an increasing population and greater development below dams, the overall number of high-hazard dams

continues to increase, to nearly 14,000 in 2012. The number of deficient dams is estimated at more than 4,000, which includes 2,000 deficient high-hazard dams. The Association of

State Dam Safety Officials estimates that it will require an investment of $21 billion to repair these aging, yet critical, high-hazard dams.

Drinking Water

(D)

• At the dawn of the 21st century, much of our drinking water infrastructure is nearing the end of its useful life. There are an estimated 240,000 water main breaks per year in the

United States. Assuming every pipe would need to be replaced, the cost over the coming decades could reach more than $1 trillion, according to the American Water Works

Association (AWWA). The quality of drinking water in the United States remains universally high, however. Even though pipes and mains are frequently more than 100 years old and

in need of replacement, outbreaks of disease attributable to drinking water are rare.

Energy

(D+)

• America relies on an aging electrical grid and pipeline distribution systems, some of which originated in the 1880s. Investment in power transmission has increased since 2005, but

ongoing permitting issues, weather events, and limited maintenance have contributed to an increasing number of failures and power interruptions. While demand for electricity has

remained level, the availability of energy in the form of electricity, natural gas, and oil will become a greater challenge after 2020 as the population increases. Although about 17,000

miles of additional high-voltage transmission lines and significant oil and gas pipelines are planned over the next five years, permitting and siting issues threaten their completion.

Hazardous Waste

(D)

• There has been undeniable success in the cleanup of the nation’s hazardous waste and brownfields sites. However, annual funding for Superfund site cleanup is estimated to be as

much as $500 million short of what is needed, and 1,280 sites remain on the National Priorities List with an unknown number of potential sites yet to be identified. More than 400,000

brownfields sites await cleanup and redevelopment . The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that one in four Americans lives within three miles of a hazardous waste

site.

Inland Waterways

(D-)

• Our nation’s inland waterways and rivers are the hidden backbone of our freight network – they carry the equivalent of about 51 million truck trips each year . In many cases, the

inland waterways system has not been updated since the 1950s, and more than half of the locks are over 50 years old . Barges are stopped for hours each day with unscheduled

delays, preventing goods from getting to market and driving up costs. There is an average of 52 service interruptions a day throughout the system. Projects to repair and replace

aging locks and dredge channels take decades to approve and complete, exacerbating the problem further.

Levees

(D-)

• The nation’s estimated 100,000 miles of levees can be found in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Many of these levees were originally used to protect farmland, and now are

increasingly protecting developed communities. The reliability of these levees is unknown in many cases, and the country has yet to establish a National Levee Safety Program.

Public safety remains at risk from these aging structures, and the cost to repair or rehabilitate these levees is roughly estimated to be $100 billion by the National Committee on

Levee Safety. However, the return on investment is clear – as levees helped in the prevention of more than $141 billion in flood damages in 2011.

American Society of Civil Engineers Scorecard for America’s Infrastructure (Continued)

Scorecard of U.S. Infrastructure

Ports

(C)

• The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers estimates that more than 95% (by volume) of overseas trade produced or consumed by the United States moves through our ports. To sustain

and serve a growing economy and compete internationally, our nation’s ports need to be maintained, modernized, and expanded. While port authorities and their private sector

partners have planned over $46 billion in capital improvements from now until 2016, federal funding has declined for navigable waterways and landside freight connections needed to

move goods to and from the ports.

Parks & Recreation

(C-)

• The popularity of parks and outdoor recreation areas in the United States continues to grow, with over 140 million Americans making use of these facilities a part of their daily lives.

These activities contribute $646 billion to the nation’s economy, supporting 6.1 million jobs. Yet states and localities struggle to provide these benefits for parks amid flat and

declining budgets, reporting an estimated $18.5 billion in unmet needs in 2011. The federal government is also facing a serious challenge as well since the National Park Service

estimates its maintenance backlog at approximately $11 billion.

Rail

(C+)

• Railroads are experiencing a competitive resurgence as both an energy-efficient freight transportation option and a viable city-to-city passenger service. In 2012, Amtrak recorded its

highest year of ridership with 31.2 million passengers, almost doubling ridership since 2000, with growth anticipated to continue. Both freight and passenger rail have been investing

heavily in their tracks, bridges, and tunnels as well as adding new capacity for freight and passengers. In 2010 alone, freight railroads renewed the rails on more than 3,100 miles of

railroad track, equivalent to going coast to coast. Since 2009, capital investment from both freight and passenger railroads has exceeded $75 billion, actually increasing investment

during the recession when materials prices were lower and trains ran less frequently.

Roads

(D)

• Forty-two percent of America’s major urban highways remain congested, costing the economy an estimated $101 billion in wasted time and fuel annually. While the conditions have

improved in the near term, and Federal, state, and local capital investments increased to $91 billion annually, that level of investment is insufficient and still projected to result in a

decline in conditions and performance in the long term. Currently, the Federal Highway Administration estimates that $170 billion in capital investment would be needed on an annual

basis to significantly improve conditions and performance.

Schools

(D)

• Almost half of America’s public school buildings were built to educate the baby boomers – a generation that is now retiring from the workforce. Public school enrollment is projected

to gradually increase through 2019, yet state and local school construction funding continues to decline. National spending on school construction has diminished to approximately

$10 billion in 2012, about half the level spent prior to the recession, while the condition of school facilities continues to be a significant concern for communities. Experts now estimate

the investment needed to modernize and maintain our nation’s school facilities is at least $270 billion or more. However, due to the absence of national data on school facilities for

more than a decade, a complete picture of the condition of our nation’s schools remains mostly unknown.

Solid Waste

(B-)

• In 2010, Americans generated 250 million tons of trash. Of that, 85 million tons were recycled or composted. This represents a 34% recycling rate, more than double the 14.5% in

1980. Per capita generation rates of waste have been steady over the past 20 years and have even begun to show signs of decline in the past several years.

Transit

(D)

• America’s public transit infrastructure plays a vital role in our economy, connecting millions of people with jobs, medical facilities, schools, shopping, and recreation, and it is critical to

the one-third of Americans who do not drive cars. Unlike many U.S. infrastructure systems, the transit system is not comprehensive, as 45% of American households lack any

access to transit, and millions more have inadequate service levels. Americans who do have access have increased their ridership 9.1% in the past decade, and that trend is

expected to continue. Although investment in transit has also increased, deficient and deteriorating transit systems cost the U.S. economy $90 billion in 2010, as many transit

agencies are struggling to maintain aging and obsolete fleets and facilities amid an economic downturn that has reduced their funding, forcing service cuts and fare increases.

Wastewater

(D)

• Capital investment needs for the nation’s wastewater and stormwater systems are estimated to total $298 billion over the next twenty years. Pipes represent the largest capital need,

comprising three quarters of total needs. Fixing and expanding the pipes will address sanitary sewer overflows, combined sewer overflows, and other pipe-related issues. In recent

years, capital needs for the treatment plants comprise about 15%-20% of total needs, but will likely increase due to new regulatory requirements. Stormwater needs, while growing,

are still small compared with sanitary pipes and treatment plants. Since 2007, the federal government has required cities to invest more than $15 billion in new pipes, plants, and

equipment to eliminate combined sewer overflows.

Highway Bill

Overview

On Dec. 4th, 2015 President Obama signed into law a five year, $305B Highway Bill, the nation’s first long-term funding solution since 2005.

The bill, entitled the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act, provides ~$207B in funding for highway and ~$48B on mass-transit projects over the next

five years and renews the charter for the controversial Export-Import Bank through September 2019.

Funding

Congress plans on paying for the FAST with a reauthorized 18.4 cents per gallon gas tax that is typically used to pay for transportation projects, and $70 billion in

“pay-fors” to close a $16 billion deficit in annual transportation funding that has developed as U.S. cars have become more fuel-efficient.

Other offsets include changes to custom fees and passport rules for applicants who have delinquent taxes, as well as contracting out some tax collection services to

private companies and tapping dividends from the Federal Reserve Bank.

Implications for

Contractors / OE’s

The Highway Bill does release some incremental funding vs. the stop gap measures that were enacted over the last several years, though overall increases are

modest. For 2016, $39.7B would be provided for highway projects a 5% increase from what was provided under the 2013-2015 measure, MAP-21. Funding would

increase by 2% in each subsequent year.

While the Bill only adds a modest amount of funding growth, it does provide more certainty for projects to move forward, which should be a modest positive for

contractors to in FY’2017 in our opinion. The E&C Group seeing increased bid activity as a result although the consensus small to medium sized projects move ahead

not multi-billion dollar projects. On the equipment side, the Highway Bill is expected to create $13B of economic activity related to construction equipment, or 6.4

cents for every dollar of the $305B program that is spend on infrastructure, according to a recent study by the Associated Equipment Distributors.

Summary of Highway Bill / Selected State & Local Measures Highway Bill: Provides Certainty in Spend Versus Band Aid Approach, Still Dollars Not Materially Higher

Selected Major State & Local Infrastructure Legislations

California (2016) – Passed a sales tax increase in 2016 that could raise as much as $120

billion for local roads, freeways and mass transit, including a $33B tunnel, light rail, and toll

road project to connect the San Fernando Valley to LAX.

Pennsylvania (2013) – Enacted bill raises an additional $2.3 billion per year, including

$1.65 billion for highways and $476 million for transit.

Arkansas (2012) - The state can issue $1.3 billion in new general obligation bonds, mostly

for a 4-lane state highway network. A portion of these revenues will be given to city and

county governments to repair rural and local roads.

Texas (2015) – Sets aside $2.5 billion of the state sales tax revenue for highway projects.

Additionally, 35% of revenue growth from taxes on vehicle sales and rentals will be set

aside for transportation beginning in 2020, netting $250 million to $350 million annually.

Maryland (2013) – MD will raise $4.4 billion over six years for transportation projects, which

includes borrowing ability against future revenues.

Virginia (2013) – Provides $3.5B over five years for multimodal transportation projects,

including highway, transit, and passenger rail. Direct a portion of internet sales tax receipts

to transportation if Congressional ban is lifted, which would raise $1.13B over five years

Ohio (2013) - A plan that would authorize the Ohio Turnpike Authority to issue $1.5 billion

in new debt over 6 years to finance (roads-only) projects around the state.

Washington (2015) – Bill will raise $16.1B by increasing the fuel tax over two years and

increasing vehicle weight and drivers license fees. Directs $8.8B to new state and local

highway construction projects, $1.4B to road repair, and $1B to transit, pedestrian, and bike

projects.

To a certain degree, states have been stepping in to address the investment shortfalls. From 2010 to 2016, twenty-three states have increased state gas tax rates, or have state legislation in place that

allows for indexing the gas tax. State action, combined with current levels of federal funding, have stabilized the downward trend in highway investment, but it remains at a level lower than required for

effective functioning of the national highway system.

Oil & Gas Takeaways & Exposure

E&C Oil & Gas Exposure CS Energy Team WTI Forecast

CS Energy Team Sees End of O&G Downturn in FY’17: Our Energy Team expects oil prices to track higher through FY’17 to a sustainable mid-range / normal level at

~$65/boe Brent and $55/boe WTI driven by three main points: 1) OPEC production cuts, 2) an overall stronger global macro backdrop, and 3) a rollover in long-wave

NOPEXUS supply. Our Energy Team notes there is potentially some upside risk in FY’17 tied to OPEC cuts holding up and stronger demand growth with potentially some

downside risk in in FY’18 if short-cycle supply, including American Shale, ramps dramatically given higher overall prices incentivizing an uptick in production.

E&C’s Should Benefit from Commodity “Reflation”: Stock prices in the group continue to be levered to moves in crude, even names with lower fundamental oil & gas

exposure. The group should move higher with crude, with potentially some upside risk as our Energy Team points out in 1H’17. We expect FY’17 to be another challenging year

with respect to awards as the focus for potentially better customer cash flows goes towards restarting shorter cycle shale supply (typically not a contractor addressable market)

as well as balance sheet repair. Still, the rollover in NOPEXUS supply and forecasted capex gives us more certainty that FY’17 should be the trough for capex, with a return

towards investment in FY’18.

Offshore Remains Challenged in FY’17, Though Some Green Shoots: Offshore should see selected green shoots in 2017. EPC costs in general have fallen and many

projects have been reengineered to be profitable in a lower oil environment. Our Energy Team estimates that ~3M boe/d of potential capacity is now profitable at ~$60/boe

Brent. By region, Brazil and East Africa are the biggest areas, though the North Sea and GoM have many potentially viable projects, which should help offshore contractors

that have under-earned in those regions. MDR in particular has noted a step up in bidding activity in the GoM and continued brownfield activity in the core ME region.

LNG Challenged in FY’17 (and Likely FY’18): Our LNG team sees FY’17 as another challenging year for project sanctions with ENI’s Coral FLNG, Ophir’s Fortuna FLNG, and

KMI’s Elba Island as the most likely. Our team believes that the market will sit in excess supply until 2024, implying no new project sanctions are needed until FY’19.

Midstream Pipeline Remains Robust: The market for specialty contractors in the midstream space likely has another good year in FY’17 tied to capacity buildouts in the

Marcellus / Utica region as well as cross-border pipeline network additions into Mexico. Also President Trump signed executive orders to build the Keystone and Dakota Access

pipelines. Quanta and MasTec are the two largest public contractors in pipeline.

In their December Report, our Energy Team expects oil prices to track higher

through FY’17 to a sustainable mid-range / normal level at ~$65/boe Brent and

$55/boe WTI from three drivers:

OPEC Production Cuts: In November, OPEC agreed to reduce by a nominal 1.2

Mb/d to a 32.5 Mb/d group total, with non-OPEC producers also contributing 600

kb/d. The move likely tips the market into a supply deficit for much of the year,

implying inventory draws and supporting prices.

Strong Global Demand: Our Economics Team continues to note that global IP is

strengthening, with generally positive PMI's and broad talk of fiscal stimulus. CS

forecasts Global GDP growth to be 3.0% in 2017 from 2.5% in 2016, with Global

PMI new orders at a 19-month high, consistent with ~3% GDP growth.

NOPEXUS Supply Rollover: NOPEXUS production had already rolled over given

declines in places like China and Mexico. Without new project sanctions,

NOPEXUS volumes would start to decline meaningfully from 2018 onward. It is

this decline, together with demand growth, that creates the space for new

investments across the industry.

Offshore Likely Remains Challenged in 2017, Though Selected Green Shoots

Global Project Cost Curve (NOPEXUS, GoM, Angola > 50 kb/d) Projects by Region

Within offshore, there should be selected green shoots in contractor addressable regions, including the North Sea and Gulf of Mexico, along with continued brownfield work in

the core Middle East region. McDermott has been a clear beneficiary of spend in the Middle East winning a significant amount of work with Saudi Aramco with fairly full

visibility already into 2017 earnings.

The analysis by our Energy Team in the chart below highlights the cost curve for future projects without FID and forecast, max production greater than 50 kb/d for Non-Opec

ex-US, Angola, and Gulf of Mexico using a project breakeven price for 10% IRR. Of the ~3.5 Mb/d worth of new projects slated to come on line by 2023, roughly ~2.4 Mb/d is

economical at $60/b. In their core scenario, ~2.7Mb/d of new projects are required by 2023, in the neighborhood of $60/b on the cost curve.

By country, roughly half of the large projects coming online are in Brazil or Angola, though typically have been closed markets not addressable by traditional EPC players (in

the case of Brazil). Russia, the North Sea, Gulf of Mexico, and Canada also represent significant volumes. Contractors with offshore exposure (MDR and FLR to a lesser

degree via the COOEC joint venture) could benefit from opportunities in the GoM (and to a lesser extent North Sea).

Despite production cuts, investment should continue in the core Middle East region. Amongst GCC countries investment is expected to be the highest for Saudi Arabia, the

UAE, and Qatar, with nominal investment in other countries. For Saudi in particular, Aramco has long-standing plans to increase its sustainable capacity to 12 Mb/d from an

estimated 11-11.5 Mb/d currently. Output reached a record of just above 10.6Mb/d in August and Saudi Arabia has agreed to restrict it to about 10 Mb/d for the first six months

of the year under the terms of the OPEC deal struck at the end of November. Still, MDR recently won the EPCI for the Safaniyah and Zuluf fields offshore in Saudi Arabia and

an offshore pipelay contract. Both will be reflected in MDR's fourth quarter backlog. Upstream is reporting that the Safaniyah contract was in excess of $700M and MDR

quantified it as "substantial" (btw $500-750M). Also MDR’s bids and targets outstanding in its MEA segment increased from $4.3B in Q2’16 to $6.3B in Q3’16.

CS LNG Team Project Tracker

Our LNG Team sees the next

demand window not until the

FY’23/24 time frame, with the market

in a persistent oversupply from FY’18

until that time.

If an average greenfield project takes

about five years to construct (from

FID to 1st LNG) and brownfield

expansions less, no projects are

required to sanction in 2017 to meet

that demand window, and in reality no

new sanctions are required until 2019.

Three projects are possible in FY’17,

namely ENI Coral FLNG and Fortuna

FLNG likely move forward. Elba

Island could also move forward based

on Kinder Morgan’s comments,

though there has been no formal FID

announcement. Despite receiving

approvals, Woodfibre LNG will likely

work through the FEED in FY’17

before taking a formal FID in FY’18.

Contractors are still positive longer

term. CBI is optimistic on

Mozambique LNG and ENI

Mozambique although we suspect

they push awards to late 2017. Also

Golden Pass recently received FERC

approval which is on CBI’s prospect

list. KBR could see Woodfibre

sanctions in FY’18 and renewed big

validity for Magnolia. FLR remains

relatively downbeat with regards to

LNG prospects and recently took out

Kitimat from its backlog in Q3’16.

Midstream Overview-Pipeline Opportunities Remain Robust Natural Gas Capacity out of Ohio / Utica

U.S. Capacity Into Mexico (Bcf/d)

Planned Pipelines in the Utica Region

New U.S. – Mexico Natural Gas Pipelines

The pipeline outlook has surprised on

the upside through 2016 and likely

does into 2017. Also important,

President Trump signed executive

orders to build the Keystone and

Dakota Access pipelines. Quanta and

MasTec are the two largest public

contractors in pipeline.

The midstream space should continue

to be strong in FY’17 (and likely again

in FY’18) for E&C’s driven by a lack of

takeaway capacity out of the Utica /

Marcellus as well as increasing cross

boarder capacity into Mexico.

Transport infrastructure in the

Appalachian Basin has not kept pace

with production capability and a

number of pipeline projects that have

been approved, or are in various

stages of the approval process could

add up to 6.8Bcf/d of takeaway

capacity out of the Utica region by the

end of FY’18. Key projects entering

service include: the Rover pipeline

(MTZ), Leach Xpress, Rayne Xpress,

and Nexus Gas.

In the next three years, US pipeline

capacity into Mexico will nearly

double. By the end of FY’18, two

additional pipelines (KM Mier-

Monterrey and Neuces-Brownsville

totaling 3.3 Bcf/d) are projected to

begin exporting natural gas.

Defense Under Trump Calls for Prior Peak Spending: Trump made soaring promises to rebuild the U.S. military and increase defense-related spending during his four-year

term, with an emphasis on increased naval vessel and air force combat aircraft procurement, boosting troop counts across all service branches, missile defense hardening,

and developing offensive and defense cybersecurity capabilities. Early indications suggest that Trump wants to restore DoD spending to levels requested in the FY’12 Budget

(so called “Gates Budget”). Successful implementation of the Gates budget would reverse years of anemic growth mandated under the Budget Control Act of 2011 (BCA),

likely growing topline DoD base budget funding to $649B in FY’17 from the $551B requested as part of the FY’17 President’s Budget and mandated by the BCA, or up ~18%.

Trump Plan Prioritizes People, Should Create More E&C Addressable Work: In addition to an ambitious naval shipbuilding plan and combat aircraft increases, Trump’s

defense policy calls for a ramp-up in service men and women across all branches of the military. Over his four year term, Trump wants to increase the number of active duty

Army forces from 460 thousand from the FY’17 request to 540 thousand, or 17%, to meet global readiness levels; increase the number of active duty Navy forces from 323

thousand from the FY’17 request to 380 thousand, or 17%; and increase the number of active duty USMC forces from 182 thousand from the FY’17 request to 200 thousand,

or 10%, to fully staff 36 battalions. Trump also wants to increase the number of combat aircraft, which will likely increase the number of required pilots and support personnel.

The additional headcount across the DoD will result in more demand for O&M and base support / facilities management services for E&C contractors. Additionally, new

Defense Secretary, Ret. Gen. Mattis, is viewed as more interventionist and will likely look to pursue a more “boots-on-the-ground” approach in the fight against ISIS in the ME,

increasing the E&C requirements for OCONUS base support services.

Repealing BCA Will Be a Major Policy Hurdle: Key to successful implementation of Trump’s plan will be the successful repeal of the BCA, which will likely face opposition

from Democrats (as funding will likely come from cuts / offsets to entitlement spending) as well as Tea Party / Deficit Hawk Republicans.

Key DoD Considerations

Trump has been a proponent of the

FY’12 Budget request (so-called Gates

Budget), which calls for topline DoD

spending of $671B vs. $583B in the

most recent budget proposal, or 18%

more funding

Will look to repeal the Budget Control

Act shortly after taking office to meet

funding goals

Priorities include bolstering the service

levels across all branches, increasing

the deployable US Naval fleet,

increasing the amount of USAF combat

aircraft, bolstering missile defense, and

hardening cybersecurity (including more

use of offensive cyber capabilities)

Key Army Considerations

Increase the number of active duty Army

forces from 460 thousand from the

FY’17 request to 540 thousand, or 17%,

to meet global readiness levels – has

Congressional and service support for

this expansion

Plan estimated to cost b/w $35-50B over

the first four years and could add ~15

thousand soldiers per year based off

historical accession rates

Will submit plan to combat ISIS

immediately after taking office – given

Defense Secretary pick Ret. Gen Mattis

will possibly be more internationalist in

the Middle East, requiring more “boots-

on-the-ground”

Key Navy Considerations

Increase the number of active duty Navy

forces from 323 thousand from the

FY’17 request to 380 thousand, or 17%,

to meet readiness objectives

Increase the naval fleet from 274 today

to 350-355 vessels over the next 30

years – this compares to the existing

long-term shipbuilding plan of 308

vessels

Would require $15B of procurement over

the next four years to buy 6 littoral

combat ships, two amphibious ships,

and one attack sub – would contract an

additional $60B in procurement beyond

the four year term

Key USMC Considerations

Increase the number of active duty

USMC forces from 182 thousand from

the FY’17 request to 200 thousand, or

10%, to fully staff 36 battalions

Plan would require $12B over the next

four years

Trump has made promises to rebuild the U.S. military and increase defense-related spending during his four-year term, with an emphasis on increased naval vessel and air

force combat aircraft procurement, boosting troop counts across all service branches, missile defense hardening, and developing offensive and defense cybersecurity

capabilities.

Increased troop counts in particular will help E&C contractors who provide base operations support services (BOSS) and facilities maintenance (FM) services across the

DoD, including KBR, JEC, ACM, FLR, and to a lesser degree CBI. Additionally, Defense Secretary Ret. Gen. Mattis will likely mean an increased “boots-on-the-ground”

presence in the Middle East, which will create more demand for contractor services.

While policy specifics are still in flux, early analysis suggests that Trump will look to spend in line with the FY’12 budget request (so-called Gates Budget), which calls for 18%

topline spending increases over the FY’17 President’s Budget request.

Still, near-term hurdles will likely stretch the time table for increased spending. In particular the 2011 Budget Control Act caps DoD base budget spending at $551B vs.

Trump’s likely goal of $649B and will need to be repealed before any major procurement fixes can be implemented. While increased defense spending in general has bi-

partisan and service level support, the “pay-fors” will likely come from cuts to entitlement spending and larger deficit spending, which will face an uphill battle with Democrats

and deficit hawk Republicans, despite a Republican majority in Congress.

Increased Defense-related Spending Likely a Boon for Contractors, Though Significant Near-terms Hurdles

In 2011, Congress passed the Budget Control Act (BCA) in an attempt to avoid a fiscal cliff event by staving off a sovereign debt default. The BCA essentially caps

defense spending through 2021 by cutting topline defense budgets by ~$487B over a ten-year period.

The BCA built in an enforcement tool to ensure Democrats and Republicans pass budgets that adhere to proposed debt-ceiling limits in the form of sequester, or

mandatory across the board spending cuts. After failing to pass a budget in FY’13, the US underwent mandatory sequester, which greatly compromised operations

& maintenance spending as well as readiness levels and furloughed thousands of government employees and civilian contractors.

To avoid negative future impacts from sequester, Congress passed the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 (so-called BBA-1 or “Murray-Ryan” budget), which amended

the caps for defense spending in FY’14-15 by $22B and $9B, respectively, essentially keeping funding levels flat at FY’13 levels. A second iteration of the BBA was

passed to cover the FY’16-17 period, increasing the BCA caps by $25B and $15B, or 5% and ~flat y/y growth, respectively.

Repealing the BCA will be an imperative for the Trump administration to reach its articulated defense priority goals and to bring spending back in line with the FY’12

Gates Budget Future Years Defense Plan (FYDP). However, the incoming administration will likely face a significant battle on both sides of the isle:

While Republicans now control the White House and both chambers of Congress, the Senate still requires 60 votes to pass significant legislation, requiring

bipartisan cooperation. Senate Democrats will likely be reluctant to increase defense spending, as “pay-fors” will have to come from cuts to entitlements or at the

very least, a revision of the Democrat preference to match each dollar of increased defense spending with a dollar increase in entitlement spending.

Even partisan support remains illusive, as Tea Party / Deficit Hawks in the Republican camp would rather abide by BCA cuts than increase deficit spending.

Repealing BCA Will Be a Major Policy Hurdle

Trump Army Implications FY’17 U.S. Army President Budget and FYDP (FY’17 Constant USD in Billions)

The US Army budget has seen steady

declines since the end of the last

decade as troops have withdrawn

from Iraq and Afghanistan, most

notably in the O&M account, where

the bulk of contractor addressable

work is funded from.

The FY’17 President’s Budget calls

for funding levels to be little changed

through 2021 in real terms.

President Elect Trump on the other

hand has articulated a desire to take

the amount of active duty soldiers

from 460 thousand in the FY’17

request to 540 thousand over his four

year term, or ~16.25 thousand per

year and an overall increase of 17%.

Troop count has a strong relationship

with overall Army funding with an R2

of 0.77 and average per soldier cost

of ~$375k.

Should Trump’s plan secure approval,

it would reverse anticipated declines

from $149B in FY’16 to $123B in

FY’17 (or down 17%), to a funding

increase of 6% to ~$158B. Overall

funding would likely improve b/w $35-

50B over the four year period.

The increased force structure would

likely result in more O&M funding as

well as base operation support

services (BOSS) and facilities

maintenance (FM) work for

contractors.

US Engineering & Construction

The Electric Power Generation market should have another healthy year in

FY’17, which has been reflected in comments from contractors (ACM, FLR, CBI),

though in general power markets are harder to differentiate and awards will likely

be more base hits vs. drivers of transformational backlog growth.

Overall capex is expected to be down slightly in FY’17, though elevated vs.

history, following a spate of spending in FY’16 to develop new gas and

renewable generation facilities.

Major capacity additions are expected to come from renewable facilities (wind /

solar) and also natural gas fired combined cycle plants (E&C addressable), with

the majority of expected adds driven by IPP / Merchant spend vs. Utilities. In

general, E&C’s will prefer to work more with Utilities vs. IPP’s given the unusual

licensing and bonding requirements as well as less certainty of construction

schedule of that customer set, though are generally agnostic.

Also interesting, the EIA revised their reference case to include more coal

generation in FY’17. The move is significant as it is a reversal from FY’16, when

gas fired generation made up the majority of net generation for the first time.

More coal utilization should provide more services / aftermarket opportunities for

BW.

Electric Power Generation Electric Power Consumption

Annual Capacity Additions by Fuel Source (GW)

Electric Power Generation by Fuel Source

Annual Retirements by Fuel Source (GW)

Electric power consumption in the US

is expected to continue to show very

modest growth in FY’17 across all

main demand sectors (residential,

commercial / transportation, industrial,

and direct use), with the largest y/y

changes coming from the industrial

sector after declines in FY’16.

In a reversal from last year, coal is

expected to make up more of the net

generation vs. natural gas, especially

in the first half of the year. This should

provide modest tailwinds for BW’s NA

coal services and aftermarket

businesses given the increased

utilization of coal fired plants. Still,

there are not expected to be any new

coal fired plants coming online over

the next several decades and coal is

expected to lead plant retirements for

the foreseeable future.

The majority of capacity additions in

FY’17 are expected to come from

renewables (namely wind and solar,

~13.2 GW) and combined cycle

natural gas (~11 GW).

Coal fired plants are expected to

dominate retirements in FY’17 (4.1

GW of nameplate capacity coming

offline) and especially in FY’18 and

FY’19 (10.8 and 11.4 GW of

FY’17 is expected to be another strong year for transmission capex. The Edison

Electric Institute expects industry capex to grow to $22.5B in FY’17 vs. $21.5B in

FY’16 tied to coal to gas switching, connecting renewables to the grid, and

modernizing / replacing aging infrastructure.

Capex in FY’18 and FY’19 are expected to be strong at $21.0B and $18.5B,

respectively. The EEI generally has a strong upward bias for out year capex

revisions as more projects are announced and move through the permitting

cycle. This suggests that the T&D market should be healthy for the foreseeable

future after a longer-permitting cycle slowing large project awards over the last

several quarters.

By region, the largest investment and greatest number of transmission miles are

expected to be added in the WECC, RFC, and NPCC regions. WECC (SW US) is

expected to be driven from solar capacity adds, RFC (Ohio River Valley) projects

are focused on connecting new natural gas capacity, and NPCC (NE US /

Canada) is focused on new natural gas capacity additions as well as connections

across the boarder into Canada.

Metals & Mining Capital Expenditures (USD MM)

CS Metals Forecasts

While consensus capex spend from

major metal & mining firms are

expected down modestly y/y in FY’17,

work is expected to improve modestly

in FY’17 from trough levels in FY’16

for E&C’s. Customer’s are generally in

a much better place entering FY’17

from a FCF standpoint (after

dividends) vs. the last two years,

which should help investment moving

forward.

In terms of the fall off of activity from

contractors, the declines have been

large, though are now well below

historical trough levels and should be

more of a tailwind moving forward.

For perspective, FLR’s mining

backlog peaked in FY’12 at $12B.

Through Q1’16 mining backlog was

running at ~$500M, before doubling in

Q2’16 tied to a bauxite award.

Supply and demand fundamentals are

in general better today vs. the last two

years. Also rising global inflation, a

resurgent Chinese economy, and

infrastructure tailwinds should help,

though off a low bottom.

In general, our mining team sees iron,

coal, base, and precious metals

prices higher year over year. E&C’s

have noted selected green shoots in

copper and gold. FLR recently

secured two awards for bauxite and

potash projects and JEC won a

copper project from Rio Tinto.

U.S. Election Implications

32

US Engineering & Construction

Trump proposed significant changes to the Internal Revenue Code on the campaign trail. Still, it remains to be seen what pre-election positions on tax reform translate into

proposed legislation, a difficult task previous Presidents have not always been able to fulfill. For example, George H.W. Bush at the 1988 Republican National Convention

famously pledged “read my lips: no new taxes,” only to agree to several tax increases in a budget compromise two years later. Still, Trump should benefit from a unified

Republican Congress. We detail several important proposed changes for E&C’s below:

Lower the corporate income tax rate from 35% to 15%: The benefits here are obvious for companies with a higher mix of US jurisdictional pre-tax income. Net winners

under this rule would include PWR and BW given their more US centric income mix. To a lesser extent ACM and CBI would benefit because of the relatively higher mix of US

pre-tax income, though lose some degree of tax leverage given their debt levels and consequent impacts to the interest tax shield. Moreover, these two companies pay some

of the lower tax-rates in the space already. JEC is also a relative winner.

Allow repatriation of corporate profits held offshore at a one-time tax rate of 10%: While several E&C’s have significant international cash holdings, this item in general is

probably less relevant for the sector. This is because of the risk profile of E&C companies in general requires them to carry relatively higher cash balances and most E&C’s

also typically sit in net debt positions. Moreover, when E&C’s do significant JV work, those agreements typically “restrict” cash, meaning that less cash is available for

repatriation vs. what is reported on the balance sheet. Still, two companies under our coverage could likely repatriate some overseas earnings, namely KBR and FLR.

Eliminate most business tax credits and “special interest” tax outlays, except for the R&D credit: In general, these proposed reforms do not impact our E&C coverage

universe, as most companies do not claim exceptional business tax credits outside of the R&D credit (e.g., FLR, JEC, ACM). One notable exception could potentially be the

elimination of the carried interest provision, which could negatively impact future realized profits for ACM Capital.

Entitle manufacturers to expense capital investment and lose the deductibility of corporate interest expense: This item is not as relevant for E&C’s.

Construction employment in

the U.S. remains well above

the 5-year average, though

still below prior peak

employment witnessed b/w

2006-2008, and average

weekly hours for construction

workers have steadily

increased over the last several

years.

Still, employment is

approaching the previous peak

seen during the early 00’s.

Weekly hours have struggled

to grow more recently, which

is most likely a factor of an

increased quit rate (indicative

of better job prospects).

Additionally, average hourly

wages continue to accelerate,

indicative of a tighter market

for labor.

At the same time, the quit rate

the positive trends in

the increased quit rate is likely

indicative of a better market

Q4’16 E&C Earnings Overview Thoughts Into the Print: Broadly we believe Q4’16 earnings are still challenged with regards to new awards in oil and gas and potential for

execution issues stemming from problem projects last year. On the positive, most all companies have already provided initial outlooks with

regards to 2017 except PWR. We believe the tone with regards to capex inflecting higher for oil and gas, mining, infrastructure and

potentially government will be more positive for 2018 and beyond although magnitude and benefits to the group are still unclear. For us, the

key question is, When does earnings trough for the broader group: 2017 or 2018?

Key Items Outside Awards:

ACM Quality of earnings relative to initial FY2017 guidance; ability to show evidence ACM can grow the top line organically; evidence bidding prospects can

translates into awards,; quality of FCF and update on capital allocation / capital structure

BW Official 2017 guide vs. preliminary range; potential recovery in industrial environmental segment; project execution; capital allocation / M&A oppty’s

CBI Update and timing of Westinghouse dispute; FCF / ability to deleverage in FY’17; update / execution on Cameron LNG project; formal FY’17 guidance vs. initial

guidance blessing the consensus estimate; based on award outlook should investors view FY’17 or FY’18 as the trough.

FLR CP Chem problem project update; energy backlog bottoming; base hits in infrastructure, gov’t, power and implications for trough EPS; thoughts on Toshiba

write-down and what that means for the nuclear projects

JEC Confidence in FY’17 outlook; potential for bolt on M&A in FY’17; update on under performing assets; based on bid prospects confidence FY’17 is the trough for

EPS

KBR Ability to grow FY’17 EPS vs. FY’16 adjusting for problem projects; is the E&C business core to KBR given the shift in focus to the Gov’t segment; new CFO

focus and implications; update on PEMEX

MDR Thoughts on FY’17 guidance given the recent award announcements; timing of larger awards ability to grow visibility into FY’18; FCF as a % of NI now that

capital programs have rolled off and given stretch in DSO’s in GoM / ME; ability to improve profitability outside of the MEA region

PWR Project execution and ability to get segment margins back to targeted levels; visibility into 2H on oil and gas; thoughts on Keystone XL and what that means for

broader capacity constraints in the industry; FY’17 EPS and FCF outlook / ability to lower DSOs

ACM noted at its December Analyst day that the Company has $25B of gov’t services ($20B expected by May), $20B of water, $7B of industrial / power,

and $5B of PPP bids outstanding. How do we think about the award trajectory throughout the year and based on your assumptions for win rate and timing of

projects, what is a reasonable backlog target for year end?

Also with regards to the prospect list, what percentage are recompetes? What are ACM’s new business and recompete win rates historically? How do we

think about the risk profile associated with the potential wins and as ACM now bids work with its vertically integrated business model?

ACM stated it spent ~$500M of bid and proposal expense in FY’16 and tipped that bid and proposal expense should continue to be a focus given the size of

the identified new business pipeline. How should we think about B&P expense in FY’17 and should bid and proposal costs continue at elevated levels?

For DCS, ACM posted a strong book-to-bill of 1.6x in the Americas Design business in Q4’16 led by transportation, water, and environmental work. Is there

evidence that this is a sustainable trend? For PPP pursuits specifically, ACM conceded that there could be a deferral of awards until the new administration

has a chance to formalize its tax / infrastructure policy. Is ACM seeing this behavior? Are there any implications for other strong markets like the UK and

Hong Kong and China comments from Trump, respectively. How is the ME, which has been a headwind, trending in FY’17?

For CS, Building Construction continues to post strong results (up 19% y/y in Q4’16) though is lower margin in general. How should we think about mix and

implications for segment margins based off of work in backlog and pursuits? Energy and Industrial work should be better given $2B of power work secured

in FY’16, though how is ACM thinking about EPC risk given competitive challenges / commoditized, lump sum nature of that market? Finally, oil & gas /

Canada was ~$0.25 headwind in FY’16 and was down 40% y/y? Have these market inflected, implying less of a headwind (or potential tailwind) in FY’17?

How much do the $700M of O&M contracts help?

How is ACM progressing with DBFO and cross selling initiatives laid out at the Analyst Day? Where is ACM in terms of its real estate consolidation and

reinvestment in tools and systems initiatives? What is left in terms of investment and what is the timing? How should we think about the timing / payback on

these initiatives?

How should we think about the timing of ACM Capital distributions and magnitude (~$0.20). Recall, ACM indicated on the Q4’16 call that receipt was not

expected in Q1’17. What is the status of the second fund?

ACM will look to generate $3.5B+ of FCF through FY’21 with a focus on deleveraging. What is ACM targeting in terms of sustainable total leverage? When

would ACM look to pursue more M&A and/or cash back to shareholders?

Q1’17 / FY’17 Guidance, CS, and Consensus Forecast Summary

Q4’16 Earnings Summary

AECOM (NYSE: ACM)

Thoughts Post Call: ACM closed up ~15% after missing Q4'16 EPS and providing initial EPS guidance for FY'17 10% below the street.

Even so, the stock rallied on significant award prospects for FY'17, which were in place before the presidential election coupled with the

potential that Trump should support above average secular growth towards the US infrastructure market. This implies FY'17 EPS is truly the

trough, setting the company up for more significant EPS growth in FY'18 and beyond helped by acquired DBFO capabilities vs. last cycle.

Specifically, ACM has $25B in bids submitted in Management Services (ACM's share expected to be awarded mid-year) and $7B in bids

outstanding for Construction Services. Furthermore, ACM won $3.3B in new awards so far this quarter spread broadly across all three

segments. Also despite choppiness in the America's Design revenues, book to burn was 1.6x in the quarter implying a better growth

trajectory for FY'17 as the year progresses. While Management Services margins are forecast lower at 7% tied largely to accounting for joint

ventures, mix in Construction should improve with more power and industrial revenues. Free cash flow was reiterated within the Company's

targeted range of $600-$800M, in line with the target presented post the URS deal. Longer term, free cash flow should approximate net

income. Last, the tax rate is expected structurally lower vs. the historic range of high twenties. The risk in our opinion remains managing

growth given acquired capabilities vs. the previous cycles.

environmental end markets. Transportation pipeline in particular is up ~40% and mgmt. remains confident given recent large state

and local measures (e.g., the California Measure M $120B transit initiative that was recently passed, similar measures in Seattle,

Atlanta, and San Francisco, and infrastructure supportive tax measures implemented in ~20 states across the country). In total,

mgmt. saw $200B of state and local infrastructure measures passed during the most recent election. Mgmt. was also optimistic on

the FAST Act and potential tailwinds from a Trump presidency. Water was also an area that mgmt. noted was seeing green shoots

and ACM is chasing $20B of identified pipeline.

Outside of the US, EMEA performance remains mixed, with UK up 3% in the quarter and 5% for the full years, though with some

headwinds from Brexit. Mgmt. noted it is also chasing opportunities for the $20B Heathrow runway expansion project. AsiaPac was

also mixed with the core HK market up 10% y/y, offset by headwinds in the SE. Australia seems like a bright spot into FY'17 for

infrastructure projects as well.

Sales for DCS in FY'17 are contemplated below the 6% growth rate of backlog this year but should improve into FY'18. For margin,

Mgmt. noted that margin was impacted by reinvestment as well as a step up in bid and proposal work. In total across the company,

mgmt. noted that ACM spent $500M on bid and proposal, or 2.7% of total sales, in FY'16. Margin is expected to improved tied to

an acceleration of organic growth through the balance of FY'17.

Construction Services

CS sales were down 13.2% y/y and 7.4% q/q to $1.560B as continued strong results from the building construction group (up 19%

on a full year basis) were more than offset by persistent headwinds in O&G (FY'16 implied down ~40% y/y). Adj. operating margin

of 1.4% was down 90 bps y/y but flat q/q, and below mgmt.'s FY'16 target of 2%. Backlog of $19.708B was up 11% y/y. Contracted

backlog of $11.963B was up 7% y/y and flat q/q. Contracted orders of $1.521B were down 50% y/y and 36% q/q. Contracted book

to bill was implied at 1.0x.

Despite persistent headwinds on the O&G side, mgmt. was optimistic on the construction segment into FY'17. Mgmt. cited recent

stadium wins, including the new LA Rams project, as well as Alliant's CCGT power plant and ~$750M of O&G wins that were

booked after the close of the quarter. Mgmt. envisions an improvement of O&G activity in 2H'17 as customer capex rebounds with

potential tailwinds from a Trump presidency. ACM has visibility on $7B of near-term bids which should support backlog growth in

FY'17 and EPS in FY'18.

Management Services

MS sales were down 3.2% y/y but up 6.5% sequentially to $857M tied to a wind down of legacy overseas work. Adj. operating

margin was solid at 10.5%, down 240 bps y/y but up 120 bps q/q. Included in the results was $20M of pretax discrete project and

legal benefits (or ~$0.07 of EPS help). Excluding the $20M of benefits, adj. operating margin was 8.2%, at the lower end of

mgmt.'s FY'16 targeted range of b/w 8-10%, though still healthy reflecting a better mix of higher margin technical services work.

Margin also was helped by $27M of project performance incentive awards, though these were expected, and are typical of gov't

contracts. Backlog of $8.699B was down 22% y/y. Contracted backlog was down 21% y/y and 2% q/q to $3.712B. Contracted

orders were implied at $781M, down 41% y/y but up 37% sequentially. Contracted book to bill was implied at 0.9x.

Mgmt. believes the pipeline for MS work remains strong into FY'17. ACM has $25B of opportunities in MS, up $10B from the prev.

quarter, most of which should be awarded by May, 2017, including $3B of opportunities with foreign governments. Moreover, ACM

now has the capabilities to prime more work, and is pursuing opportunities for higher margin work in cyber, intelligence, critical

infrastructure protection, and O&M work. Still, margin next year is expected in the 7% range as ACM primes more work and one-

time benefits (e.g., favorable MS pension) do not repeat again next year.

Analyst Day Takeaways: ACM Poised to Reap Infrastructure / Gov't Tailwinds: ACM sees secular growth in the infrastructure and gov't services markets.

On infrastructure, ACM sees better long-term funding at the federal, state, and local levels; articulated policy from Trump; and a shift towards more

design/build and PPP work as tailwinds. ACM has $5B of PPP bids outstanding today. ACM remains realistic on Trump benefits by FY'19 at the earliest and

sees a potential for a near-term push out of PPP work. For gov't services, ACM is positioned for transformational growth with $48B of identified pipeline and

$25B of bids outstanding ($20B awarded in FY'17) vs. $9B of backlog today. ACM sees opportunities for traditional DoD and DoE work, but also nuclear

new build / decommissioning. Outside, of infrastructure and gov't services, ACM also has $7B of bids outstanding in the industrial / power end markets.

DBFO Driving Better Topline / Margin: ACM believes it is well positioned to capture more design/build and PPP work in infrastructure given its DBFO

integrated model. Today, ~500 customers account for ~80% of ACM sales, with only a modest amount sold multiple services. ACM is educating and

incentivizing employees to cross sell solutions moving forward. ACM sees margin improvement from investment in systems, tools, and consolidation of

employees in global service centers increasing utilization / fixed-cost absorption as well as better leveraging bid & proposal costs. Establishes Long-term

Targets: ACM expects topline organic growth at a 5%+ CAGR b/w FY'17-'21, driven by end market tailwinds and cross selling. ACM expects a 10%+ adj.

EPS CAGR off of a $2.90 base tied to better sales (40-45%), margin initiatives (30-35%), and reduced interest (20-30%). EPS growth does not depend on

M&A, repurchases, or addt'l ACM monetizations beyond next year. ACM will look to generate FCF of $3.5B+, to be used for near-term deleveraging and

later M&A, repo, and a potential dividend. (Link to Note)

On the Q2’16 call, mgmt. cited $300M of potential awards that but had not been signed yet. Mgmt. indicated that securing all $300M before the EoY FY’16

could provide some upside though ~$100M was needed to hit the low end of the $1.25-1.45+ (now b/w $1.25-1.45) FY’17 guide. BW has not announced

any sizeable EPC awards, which would suggest the bottom end of the range is more difficult. Is this still the right way to think about $300M of larger

awards?

What are your assumptions for the Industrial Environmental business in FY 2017? Are you seeing any green shoots by a particular region or geography?

How is BW progressing against $3.3B bid pipeline? What is the expected timing of awards and when they need to hit to help FY’17 (mgmt. indicated no later

than early Q1’17)?

What is the status of the problem renewable project? Recall, BW took an additional $14M charge last quarter (though offset by positive $15M insurance

claim) after taking a $29.9M in Q2’16. Mgmt. indicated the project should be complete in early FY’17 (through Q3’16 piping was 83% and electrical was 78%

done and is currently a zero gross margin project).

The EIA and contractors reported higher utilization of coal fired power plants at the end of the year tied a step up in natural gas prices. Moreover, the EIA

now expects coal to account for more net generation in FY’17 vs. natural gas, a reversal from FY’16. Given the positive trends in coal fired generation, is

BW seeing any improvement in Q4’16 / early FY’17 in its services / aftermarket business?

Is BW seeing a pick up in the Canadian oil sands business? Should the Canadian business be less of a headwind (or potentially a tailwind) in FY’17?

How does BW view a Trump Presidency? Have customer conversations changed at all post-election? Given the change in articulated regulatory tone, what

is the status of the Clean Power Plan, which is currently under review in the DC 2nd Circuit Court? When BW talks about coal retirement forecast in terms of

baseload nameplate capacity does that assume the CPP goes through or not? In the EIA AEO17 reference case the CPP has a dramatic step up impact on

coal retirements.

Will BW provide more color on the UniversalAET acquisition, specifically what are the targeted revenue synergies and timing as well as implications for

FY’17 EPS and normalized EPS contribution thereafter?

In terms of capital allocation, how is BW thinking about the timing of the $100M repurchase authorization? What is the expected timing of longer-term

leverage target of 2x? What does BW contemplate in terms of additional acquisitions and timing of M&A?

Q4’16 / FY’16 Guidance

Thoughts Post Call: BW's stock closed down 10% after missing Q3'16 but reiterating FY2016 EPS of $0.63-$0.83 on reduced revenues of

$1.7B. The miss in the quarter was lighter revenues, largely driven by continued weakness in the coal market. Margins were solid considering

the environment. The Q4'16 guide implies a wide range but BW cited some improvement in aftermarket parts business towards the end of Q3

and into Q4 which could help. Awards were light in the quarter however the bid pipeline did increase $400M to $3.3B with half driven by SPIG.

BW remains optimistic with regards to growing EPS in 2017 and reiterated confidence that it will be within the original 2016 range of $1.20-

1.45. BW also looks to further supplement growth via acquisitions with opportunities to close deals between now and the end of 2017 to

diversify away from coal. While we agree with the strategic direction BW mgmt. is shifting the company towards, we continue to be concerned

about the company's ability to weather coal, in particular after the decline in sales this quarter coupled with our more cautious view on industrial

businesses into 2017.

Q3’16 Divisional / Market Commentary

Babcock & Wilcox (NYSE: BW)

Power

Power sales were down 2.7% y/y and down 12% q/q to $288M. Sales were adversely impacted by the longer-term shift from coal-

power generation to natural gas and renewables in the US as well as other short-term issues such as the mild winter earlier this

year and reduced activity in the Canadian Oil Sands. Despite the top line being relatively light, profitability held up nicely at 23.3%

down only 80bps sequentially. BW continues to see slowness in the power markets. Still, BW saw the aftermarket parts business

picking up significantly in Q3 and very early in Q4, which could be attributed to the warmer weather and the utilities having to invest

in their units because they ran them more. Despite the uncertainty in the market, BW was also able to increase bid and proposal

activity. Also on the positive, mgmt. is starting to see positive effects from the restructuring that support profitability.

Renewables

Renewables sales were up 43% y/y and up 45% q/q to $124M due to higher activity levels in the segment. Gross margin was 15%,

down 510bps y/y weighed down by the European renewable profit. The challenged project had a net benefit of $1 million for the

quarter. Lower-than-expected labor productivity caused the project time line to slip, resulting in a $14-million increase in the

estimated cost to complete the project. However, this was offset by a probable project-related insurance recovery of $15 million.

Mgmt. expects key project milestones to be completed in early 2017 for the problem project (with the spend rate expected to be

significantly lower by Dec-Jan relative to today). The two major systems where BW continues to do work are piping an electrical

(piping was 39% complete in July and is 83% complete today while electrical was 40% complete in mid-July and is 78Z% complete

today).

Source: ThomsonOne, Company data, Credit Suisse Estimates

Industrial

Industrial sales were up 97% y/y to $76.8M. Sales almost doubled due to the acquisition of B&W SPIG which contributed $38.3

million. SPIG revenues were below the expected average quarterly run rate of ~$50M due to project timing and a slower period in

late summer but mgmt. expects SPIG revenues to be in line with expectations in Q4 and continue at a similar run rate in 2017

given the current backlog that SPIG has. Worth noting that SPIG was down 11% in Q3 and is down 22% YTD. SPIG contributed

gross profits of $4.2M though intangible amortization of $7.1M was not included in the segment results. MEGTEC revenues were

flat y/y while implied margins of 27% were solid. Industrial margins of 19.0% were light reflecting timing on SPIG profits and on

tougher comparisons last year of 27.3%. Mgmt. believes that the industrial segment has opportunities for revenues growth and that

margins could be maintained, if not improved, as volumes improve.

BW Acquires UniversalAET: Deal Takeaways: BW announced it has acquired Universal Acoustic & Emission Technologies (“UniversalAET”), a

Wisconsin-based provider of custom-engineered acoustic, emission, and filtration solutions to the natural gas power generation, mid-stream natural gas

pipeline, locomotive, and general industrial end markets, for an effective enterprise value of $55M. The Company has a topline of ~$80M, EBITDA margins

in the ~8% range, and employs ~460 people, mainly in the US and Mexico. Typical projects for UniversalAET are in the ~$150k range, but up into the

millions range, and are generally shorter duration. BW has an existing relationship with UniversalAET, and is partnering with the firm on a current project.

The business will be included in the Industrial operating segment alongside MEGTEC and SPIG. The deal makes sense in our view and is consistent with

BW’s strategy to acquire an engineered solution with a solid aftermarket as a bolt-on to the MEGTEC platform. The deal is also attractive as another toehold

into the natural gas end markets, helping BW further diversify away from NA coal. Deal Metrics: BW acquired UniversalAET at an enterprise value of

~$55M (subject to customary adjustments). The Company is expected to contribute $80M for the full year and has EBITDA margins in the ~8% range. This

implies an EV / Sales and EV / EBITDA multiple of 0.7x and 8.6x, respectively. BW anticipates realizing b/w $2.5-3M of cost synergies by FY’18, implying an

adj. EV / EBITDA multiple of closer to ~6x, and sees scope for revenue synergies longer-term. The Company has an annual depreciation expense in the

~$2.5M range. BW will fund the acquisition by drawing on the existing revolver, which maintains an interest rate in the ~4% range. The deal is expected to

be slightly accretive in FY’17. (Link to Note)

B&W Announces Executive Appointments: Jimmy B. Morgan has been named Senior Vice President, Renewable. He will be responsible for B&W’s

Following the November 7th hearing, the Delaware Court of Chancery recommended that Westinghouse / CBI use the an independent auditor, though

agreed with CBI’s definition of GAAP. More recently, Toshiba announced it will likely write down the CBI nuclear acquisition by “multiple billions”. Based on

your understanding is the write down associated with additional project charges on the project or or stemming from the CBI working capital claim? When do

we expect the auditor due diligence process to begin and what is a reasonable time frame for resolution? What is a reasonable outcome based on your

knowledge and is there any possibility this dispute can be settled between CBI and Westinghouse? How do read into the recent departure of CBI’s general

council and the implied read through of the Westinghouse / CBI dispute?

Can you provide an update on Cameron LNG, specifically progress made to move back on schedule relative to the flooding that impacted the third quarter?

Also the CEO of Sempra, following CBI’s third quarter call, implied the delays were more extensive vs. CBI’s comments.

Last quarter, CBI blessed the consensus estimates for FY’17, implying EPS of approximately $4.55. How much visibility does CBI have into FY’17 relative

to last year? What is the revenue associated with those problem projects embedded in 2017 guidance?

How do we think about award targets in FY’17 relative to FY’16? Does this assume Mozambique LNG is still awarded late in FY’17? Also do you still expect

ENI to select a contractor for ENI Mozambique in FY’17 and how would you characterize CBI’s positioning? What it the latest update on the Total cracker?

When does CBI think backlog will bottom? Historically orders inflect 6-8 quarter after oil has stabilized at higher levels? Oil bottomed in February 2016,

which implies we could see orders inflect higher within the next two to four quarters. Has the customer’s tone changed and if so when do you awards start to

re-accelerate? Within Oil and Gas, assuming capex inflects higher where will customers concentrate spend in the next cycle? Have you seen any

acceleration in the $4-5B in underpinning work?

Within the technology business, have you seen any change in customer tone, which would imply EPC should start to recover?

CBI sees OCF as a % of NI >100% moving forward, though excludes mandatory JV capex and distributions and project prepayments are likely not available

for debt service. As such, CBI has indicated that the timeline for deleveraging below the 1.5x total leverage metric required to remove the caps on TTM

dividends and repurchases likely slips out to the 2018+ time frame. Is this the right way to think about it?

Pat Mullen was recently appointed COO of CBI. Where specifically is Pat focusing his time in his new role and what are the implications for CBI in term of

project execution and potential cost cutting? Can you speak to your comfort level with taking additional fixed price work or what is the optimal mix between

fixed price and cost plus work based on CBI’s risk comfort level.

How would you characterize labor risk in the Gulf Coast and potential risk to projects in backlog? Contractors like IHI have noted higher turnover recently.

What are the biggest implications of the Trump administration to CBI both positive and negative?

What is the status of the Ecopetrol / Reficar refinery claim?

US Engineering & Construction

Q4’16 / FY’16 Guidance

Thoughts Post Call: CBI reported Q3'16 EPS of $1.20; however, results were helped by ~$0.10 from tax. On the positive, the tax rate is

structurally lower going forward and expected to be 24-25% in 2017. Results were noisy and included $104M in costs overruns associated with

two projects (one complete, one 75% complete) offset by $112M in benefits from two projects associated with significant changes in

profitability within in E&C segment. More important, CBI continues to generate strong OCF at $176M and is on track to deliver $650M in OCF

for the year. Also, CBI reiterated guidance for FY'16 and endorsed the consensus estimates for FY'17 of $4.55. Furthermore, CBI believes

OCF as a % of net income will continue to be at least 100% providing confidence to the deleveraging story. Looking ahead, CBI remains bullish

with regards to longer-term growth oppty's still targeting $8-10B in awards with large LNG elephants expected in in the latter part of FY'17. The

outlook remains encouraging and OCF continues to be strong. The next catalyst for the name is related to Westinghouse. Mgmt. believes there

should be resolution fairly soon, which has been a significant overhang on the name.

E&C sales were up 15% y/y and up 7.6% q/q to $1.660B largely tied to a ramp in U.S. LNG activity (~$300M of sales), partially offset by

less work on a LNG mechanical erection project in AsiaPac and refinery project in Colombia.

Operating income was strong at $134M, up 25% y/y and 40% q/q. Margin was impressive at 8.1% up 190 bps q/q. Included in the results

was $112M gain associated with positive reconciliation of completion costs on a large int'l project as well as another smaller positive one-

time gain on another project. Offsetting the gain was a $50M charge on a U.S. EPC project as well as a $54M charge on another US

project related to lower union labor productivity that caused CBI to have to re-estimate the costs on the project. The project that relates to

the $50M charge has reached completion, while the $54M problem project is 75% complete. CBI does not anticipate taking additional

charges moving forward. All told the benefits net to $8M of help and imply a normalized margin of 7.6%, which was still strong and CBI

believes should be the run-rate moving forward.

Backlog was solid at $11.070B, down 45% y/y and 1% q/q. Orders were strong at 1.492B, down 36% y/y, but up 55% q/q, and implied a

book-to-bill of 0.9x. Major new awards included a gas power project in the US (~$600M), a refinery project in Russia (~$460M), and federal

funding allocation for the Savanah River MOX site and scope increases on an AsiaPac LNG mechanical erection project (~$365M

combined).

Regarding active projects, mgmt. noted that the LA floods impacted work at Camron LNG and some smaller pipe fab work. CBI is currently

working the schedule impact with owner of Cameron. Gorgon LNG is nearing completion and Wheatstone is on track for delivery in mid-

FY'17. On the horizon, CBI sees Rio Grande and Goldboro as LNG likely to move forward to EPC, though later in 2H'17. CBI also believes

Anadarko's Mozambique LNG will reach FID in late FY'17 and believes that ENI will select a contractor next year as well. On the

petrochemical side, the Shintech and LACC crackers are ramping construction as is the Orpic cracker in Oman. Mgmt. expects larger

petrochemical projects in the $2-3B range in Q1'17.

CBI believes that the step-up in recent FID activity is being driven by oil price stability vs. price concessions or material cost deflation. CBI

noted it is seeing some pressure for reimbursable margins but fixed price work is holding up well.

Fabrication Services

FS sales were down 20% y/y and 2.6% q/q to $513M tied to lower storage tank work in NA, SA, and AsiaPac and lower engineered

product activity, partially offset by better fabrication activity. Operating income was softer at $56M, down 9.4% y/y and 16.8% q/q, Margin

was down 190 bps q/q to 10.8%, though within mgmt.'s targeted range of b/w 10-13%. Backlog was down 32% y/y and 11% q/q to

$2.309B. Orders were softer at $226M, down 11% q/q and 73% y/y, and implied a book to bill of 0.4x. Awards included various global

storage and pipe fabrication projects.

LT mgmt. sees margins in the 11%+ range driven by opportunities in the ME, AsiaPac, and US as well as through increasing efficiencies

and internal cost controls. CBI sees fewer large LNG tank projects moving forward, but was bullish on midsized / smaller projects that are

higher margin, quicker book-and-burn, and represent ~40% of the segment today.

Technology

Technology sales were $91M, down 23.5% y/y but up 40.3% q/q, and were hurt by lower catalyst volumes and the timing of new awards.

Operating income of $27M was down 14.4% y/y but up 18.1% q/q. Margin was weaker at 30.2%, down 570 bps q/q reflecting a mix of

lower margin catalysts vs. higher margin licensing sales. Backlog was up 84% y/y but down 4% q/q to $941M. Orders of $119M were

better, up 22% y/y and 11% q/q, and implied a book-to-bill of 1.3x. New awards included alkylation licensing in NA and China;

petrochemical licensing in Europe and China; and global catalyst awards.

CBI noted that it opened a new polypropylene catalyst facility w/ Clariant in KY. Mgmt. believes the Clariant JV investment will generate

IRR of over 40%. Mgmt. was also bullish on its new strategic alliance with Haldor Topsoe for syngas licensing. CBI believes this will also

help secure EPC work for NA syngas plants as well as create a toehold into the NA ammonia market, where it noted activity is healthy.

Longer-term, mgmt. believes tech can achieve $200M+ annual run-rate operating income in the next two years.

Capital Services

CS sales were down 17% y/y and 8.7% q/q to $513M, largely driven by lower construction services activity. Operating income was down

31% y/y but relatively flat q/q to $17M. Operating margin improved 30 bps q/q to 3.2% in line with mgmt.'s guide of b/w 3-6%. Backlog was

down 6% y/y but up 11% q/q to $5.451B. Orders were strong at $879M, up 34% y/y and 102% q/q, and implied a book-to-bill of 1.7x. Major

new awards included a refinery maintenance services project (~$320M), power plant services (~$150M), military base services (~$75M),

and landfill services (~$50M), all in NA.

Toshiba Outlook for Goodwill & Write-downs in Nuclear Power Business: Event: On 27 December, Toshiba announced and held a briefing on the possible recognition of

goodwill and related write-downs arising from the acquisition of CB&I Stone and Webster (S&W). Four takeaways were: (1) goodwill and write-down amounts are still being

assessed; (2) impact on shareholders equity remains undetermined, so additional restructuring planned for FY3/17 may be postponed; (3) these measures are unrelated to

the ongoing “security on alert” designation for Toshiba’s stock; and (4) the company seems to have changed its stance regarding capital increases, and is considering various

options including equity financing.

Toshiba aims to finalize the above mentioned amounts before releasing 3Q FY3/17 results (scheduled for mid-Feb). If the estimated impact is not finalized at the level of

“several hundred billion yen” provisionally indicated by management, fair-value would become harder to determine, and the market would likely price in maximum risk. That

said, we see little risk of net liabilities and a SOTP valuation based on FY3/17E and assumes zero value for the nuclear power business gives a theoretical share price of

¥382; we arrive at this by simply deducting our current estimate of ¥78/share for the nuclear power business from our ¥460 TP. However, equity financing commensurate with

the prospective write-down would likely have a dilution effect of about 6% (roughly ¥100bn). Toshiba said higher personnel expenses were the main factor affecting the

roughly ¥2tn cost estimate for its four US nuclear power projects. Based on this, we estimate a 10–15% cost increase would result in a ¥200–300bn write-down, which would

likely cause the share price to bottom at around ¥310–350 by 3Q results.

Goodwill and related write-down risk for S&W acquisition: Toshiba said it expects goodwill for the S&W purchase of “several billion US dollars”—far above its initial estimate of

$87mn—owing to heavier costs in the four US nuclear power projects mainly due to personnel expenses. It also explained its impairment tests might lead to write-downs of

part or all of the goodwill. During the briefing, Toshiba said the amounts were being assessed and did not disclose any quantitative information or comment on the likely

balance-sheet impact. It indicated it continues to discuss the disparity between the amount of working capital agreed in the contract with Chicago Bridge & Iron (CB&I)

regarding the S&W acquisition and the actual amount (Toshiba claims the difference is ¥215.1bn). However, as this matter is unlikely to be settled by 31 December, it plans to

record a certain amount of goodwill that is to be factored into its impairment tests. Toshiba said the consolidated-basis impairment tests would include the existing goodwill

estimate for the nuclear power business (¥77.1bn at end-Sep).

Timing of restructuring planned for FY3/17: Toshiba indicated additional restructuring planned for FY3/17 (estimated cost: ¥60bn) might be pushed back. We would view this

as negative for earnings from FY3/18. However, given that head-office only understood the goodwill-related risks mid-December, has yet to finalize estimates for goodwill and

related write-downs, and has yet to determine impact on shareholders equity, we doubt it can make a firm decision on restructuring at the moment.

Weighing up capital increases: In terms of net liabilities risk, we forecast end-FY3/17 shareholders' equity (net assets) of just under ¥500bn (above guidance of ¥320bn),

based on an overall assessment of factors, including upside versus Toshiba’s 2H earnings assumptions (centering on NAND; our assumptions do not factor in the projected

¥60bn restructuring cost), and likely improvement in other comprehensive income due to current yen weakness. Although much will depend on the size of the write-down, we

see little risk of net liabilities. Toshiba is mulling various options, including capital increases, but seems more likely to seek bank funding, such as committed credit lines, in the

near term. (Link to Note)

What are the potential risks and upside to the FY’17 outlook and how do we think about margin targets by segment? Are there any additional cost cutting

measures FLR is undertaking embedded in FY’17 guidance? What is the revenue associated with the problem projects embedded in FY’17 guidance?

How do we think about FCF relative to net income in FY’17? Is FLR seeing any customers delay payments? Where are PEMEX receivables vs

expectations?

What is the expected contribution from Stork with regards to FY’17 EPS and has business stabilized at all since deteriorating after the deal closed? What is

a reasonable time frame to think about revenue synergies?

Update on the COOEC joint venture? Is FLR on track to pay the remaining $78M in September, 2017 and when can we expect new awards for the JV?

During the third quarter, FLR noted the competitive environment had taken a turn for the worse. Specifically, customers were expecting lower EPC prices

and that there was increased levels of irrational bid and fee pricing. Has this persisted or is there more optimism given higher commodity prices or view the

economy should improve? How has this impacted FLR’s win rate and are there any projects FLR expected to win and lost that could impact FY’17

guidance?

What is the status of the CP Chem fixed price problem project? Recall, FLR took a $241M pre-tax charge in Q3’16. As of Q3’16 the project was 60%

complete and expected to be completed in October 2017.

When does FLR think its Energy backlog bottoms? Historically orders inflect 6-8 quarter after oil has stabilized at higher levels? Oil bottomed in February

2016, which implies we could see orders inflect higher within the next two to four quarters. Is that reasonable and do you thinking mining or energy recovers

first? Given more constructive outlook for offshore, when does FLR see benefits from COOEC joint venture.

Assuming a deferral of awards, what levers can FLR pull in terms of restructuring to preserve profitability? What would be the required spend and what is

the timing for repayment?

How do you think about potential implications of the Trump administration on FLR’s business outlook?

Is there any potential risk to FLR on the Southern and SCANA nuclear projects? Recall, Toshiba has indicated it will write down its nuclear assets acquired

from CBI by “several billion” though it is unclear at this point if the write down is from the working capital claim vs. additional cost overruns on the projects.

Toshiba is looking to either raise external capital or sell its semi business to cover the loss. Assuming the Toshiba news relates to new additional costs on

the nuclear projects is there risk the projects are cancelled or that payments to FLR are delayed?

FLR has been fairly successful winning work on the infrastructure front? Can you speak to the profitability and risk profile associated with those jobs?

The street is modeling FY’17 as the trough for EPS. Is there enough in the way of petrochem / crackers, refining projects, and industrial / power awards to

build backlog in FY’17 and support EPS in FY’18, or is FY’18 more likely the trough? Assuming energy spend comes back, where do you customers

spending money across the broader upstream and downstream landscape?

Q4’16 / FY’16 Guidance

Thoughts Post Call: We expect FLR's stock to come under pressure today after reporting more charges associated with the CP Chem project

which in total represented a $1.10 hit to EPS bringing Q3'16 EPS to $0.03 vs. the consensus at $0.87. The charges are disappointing, as we

had hoped FLR a could differentiate itself this cycle and unfortunately results / charges are similar to what we saw from the rest of the group

this quarter (KBR and CBI). As a result, FLR lowered its FY'16 estimates (expected) and established FY'17 guidance well below the street of

$3.00 at the midpoint. We believe based on what is in backlog, guidance for FY'17 is conservative enough as FLR does not assume

incremental large awards to achieve guidance and is further supported by recent wins like TCO, Westinghouse, and infrastructure awards. We

believe FY'17 estimates are near trough and changes to FLR's business model and competitive positioning in diverse markets across oil and

gas, mining, and infrastructure still position the company for meaningful growth opportunities ahead.

Q3’16 Divisional / Market Commentary

Fluor Corporation (NYSE: FLR)

Energy, Chemicals

& Mining

EC&M sales were down 17% y/y and 6% q/q to $2.325B largely driven by a significant decline in mining and metals work.

Operating income was a loss of $60M vs. a $208M profit in the year ago quarter. Included in the operating income was another

$241M charge related to the CP Chem Gulf Coast Petrochemical project. Adjusting for the problem project, margins were solid at

7.8%. Backlog was down 21% y/y and 6% q/q to $23.682B. The decline in backlog was largely driven by the removal of Kitimat

LNG, which mgmt. noted has been suspended by the customer. Mgmt. believes that backlog has bottomed and should improve

moving forward as new awards pick up in the back half of FY'17. Orders were up 56% y/y to $5.643B, largely reflecting the

inclusion of the TCO upstream project in backlog. Book to bill was implied at 2.4x.

The CP Chem continues to be 60% complete today and is not expected to be delivered until late summer or early fall in FY'17. The

project is in a loss making position today and should result in zero gross margin contribution in the future, though will recognize

revenue through completion, implying a margin headwind for the next several quarters.

FLR noted on the call that competition remains tight and competitors continue to bid work aggressively with the hope of capturing

back margin through change orders in the future. FLR is remaining disciplined bidding work. Mgmt. expects O&G and mining to be

lower for longer but sees selected high quality projects continue to move forward. These projects are often more mission critical for

customers and more complex, which favors FLR's integrated model. Mgmt. expects margins to step down in Q4'16 from adjusted

Q3'16 margins of ~6% into the 5-6% range.

Industrial,

Infrastructure & Power

II&P sales were up 89% y/y and 12% q/q to $1.128B. The increase in sales was primarily due to Westinghouse and several gas-

fired power plants in the US, as well as increased work on infrastructure projects in the early stages of execution. Operating margin

was light at 2.5%, down 260 bps q/q. Included in operating income was $22M of NuScale expense. Adjusting for NuScale, margins

were better at 4.5%. Backlog was up 125% y/y but down 10% q/q to $11.461B. Orders were soft at just $74M, or a book to bill of

0.1x.

Mgmt. sees lumpy awards for infrastructure projects moving forward given the longer approval processes for those types of

projects. Mgmt. noted that FLR is not seeing any pushouts or delays for bids. Overall, FLR believes the infrastructure oppt'y is

strong for the next several years and FLR can now compete on smaller projects profitably.

For NuScale, FLR is still on track for design certification by year end. Still, spend will remain elevated next year at ~$80M. Review

will take ~39 mo. but DoE remains motivated. FLR sees oppt'y to sell the technology to UK customers as well.

Source: ThomsonOne, Company data, Credit Suisse Estimates

Government Services

GS sales were up 3% y/y and 4% q/q to $681M tied to a ramp in activity on the Idaho Cleanup project, partially offset by reduced

activities on a UK nuclear decommissioning project and a wind down of work on the LOGCAP IV contract. Operating margin was

3.9%, down 60 bps y/y but up 60 bps q/q. Backlog was up 54% y/y and 1% q/q to $5.899B. Awards were solid at $955M, largely

tied to increased scope on the Savannah River project. Book-to-bill was implied at 1.4x.

Maintenance,

Modification

& Asset Integrity

MM&AI sales were up 94% y/y and down 11% q/q to $632M largely tied to inclusion of Stork, which contributed $350M in the

quarter. Excluding help from Stork, organic sales were down 14% y/y to $331M with headwinds from few equipment business sales

tied to a demobilzation of projects in LatAm and NA as well as lower power service sales. Operating margin was down 500 bps y/y

but up 30 bps q/q to 4.7% tied to lower levels of project execution activities in the power services business line, partially offset by

contributions from Stork. Backlog was up 20% y/y but down 11% q/q to $3.283B largely tied to Stork. New awards were softer at

$350M, or a book to bill of 0.5x.

Mgmt. noted that FLR tweaked the purchase accounting for Stork but that no margin fair value was flowing through the P&L,

boosting margins.

NuScale Power Submits Small Modular Nuclear Reactor Design Certification to U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission: FLR annouced on 1/12/17 that NuScale Power

(NuScale), in which Fluor is the majority investor, completed and formally submitted its design certification application to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for

NuScale’s small modular nuclear reactor commercial power plant design. The reactor technology can deliver the energy diversity needed to power unique energy needs while

also providing a safe, more flexible, carbon-free power generation solution.

Analyst Day Takeaways: End Market Outlook: We believe major awards will be challenged in FY'17 for prospects in oil & gas and mining. Longer-term opportunities are

sizable in petrochemical, LNG, and refining, but likely more FY'18 and beyond events. Still, FLR is seeing some modest green-shoots in mining across copper, bauxite, and

alumina. There are opportunities in infrastructure and power in FY'17, but we view these projects as more base hits vs. elephants. Integrated Solutions Model Should Drive

Competitive Advantage: We continue to believe FLR's shift to a more integrated solutions model will drive sustainable competitive advantage, as FLR brings clients more

innovative solutions to take costs out of projects and ensure schedule. This is increasingly important given the view that commodity prices will remain lower for longer and

given FLR's customers are under scrutiny for prior cost overruns and / or projects not meeting schedule. Therefore, FLR's ability to reduce project costs by 20-25% through

lower cost engineering, supply chain, and fabrication should drive above average win rates even in a more muted outlook. This is increasingly important both in oil & gas and

mining. Still, customer buy-in remains in the education vs. the buy-in stage. Downgrading to Neutral: We reduce our rating to Neutral from Outperform. We believe that FLR

remains one of the best positioned in oil & gas and mining longer-term, however, we remain concerned with project burn-rates slowing, and new awards likely pushed into

FY'18. We are less optimistic FY'17 is the trough for EPS given FLR is so late cycle. We see few catalysts to get FLR out of the penalty box given the earnings trajectory

remains cloudy and the CP Chem problem project likely remains an overhang (even with progress made in Q4'16, the project is not expected to be complete until October

2017). (Link to Note)

Based on the first quarter results and as backlog sits today, do you feel more comfortable with the low or high end of guidance and what are the drivers to

get you there? What should we assume in terms of FCF versus net income in FY’17 and should we assume incremental improvement in DSOs? Does JEC

still expect to grow backlog y/y in FY’17? Does this imply a change in JEC’s win rate or is JEC casting a wider net in terms of bid prospects? How do we

think about margins by segment for FY’17 vs. JEC’s longer-term margin targets?

How is JEC progressing against $30B of A&T pursuits? How should we think about the timing of new awards and win rates? How much is JEC looking to

prime vs. today? What are the implications for revenue growth and margins? Does JEC see any headwinds from extended protest periods and increased

small biz requirements? Is there any update on M&A for more weapons support / nuclear work? Have customer discussions / bid prospects changed post

election?

For Industrial, the segment has the highest organic growth segment targets based off of multi-year pharma / biologics cycle and improvement in metals /

mining end markets. Is there evidence that commodity focused end markets are bottoming and awards continue to be strong for pharma? Are there any

updates on the timing of M&A to add more direct hire construction capabilities for field services as well as any read thru’s from A&T nuclear work (largest

customer in Industrial) supporting growth in FY’17 / 18.

When does JEC think its P&C backlog bottoms? Historically orders inflect 6-8 quarter after oil has stabilized at higher levels. Oil bottomed in February 2016,

which implies we could see orders inflect higher within the next two to four quarters. Is that reasonable and do you thinking mining or energy recovers first?

For P&C, is there evidence awards for chemicals and refining remain strong? Is there any update on M&A for more direct hire EPC capabilities for

downstream work? Is there any new commentary that upstream capex is rebounding and update on JV initiatives to get more GCC work, implying that

FY’16 was the trough for P&C work?

What is the status of the 15% of the portfolio that is underperforming and 25% that is breakeven? JEC noted at its analyst day fixing these assets over time

could contribute between $50-100M of op income. Is there anything baked into FY’17 estimates? Since the analyst day, has anyone expressed interest in

looking at those assets?

How is JEC thinking about the timing of bolt-on acquisitions, which is likely the next major catalyst for the name? JEC announced plans to increase total

leverage to 2.0x by FY’19, which should provide north of $1.2B of dry powder for M&A. What does the acquisition pipeline look like today and are there any

opportunities to close deals in FY’17?

Is there evidence that working capital / accounts receivable are continuing to improve along with ROIC after new mgmt. incentive compensation metrics

were implemented?

How do you think about potential implications of the Trump administration on JEC’s business outlook and potential for tax reform?

Q1’17 / FY’17 Guidance

Thoughts Post Call: JEC's stock closed up ~3% after a fairly in line quarter and providing FY'17 outlook 2.5% below the Street. Still, JEC

bracketed consensus at the high end, which is typical of mgmt. On the positive, JEC continues to execute well against its broader restructuring

efforts, which is resulting in y/y margin improvement both at the segment level and G&A despite tougher markets. Additionally FCF conversion

for FY'16 was fairly impressive at $612M for the year driven largely by DSOs, which are down seven days vs. FY'15. With a good portion of the

restructuring in place, JEC is now focused on profitable growth and is targeting to grow backlog y/y despite the tough market conditions as a

result of a renewed focus leveraging synergies across the Company.

Q4’16 Divisional / Market Commentary

Jacobs Engineering (NYSE: JEC)

Petroleum

& Chemicals

P&C sales were down 33.1% y/y (though on tougher comps) and 10.8% q/q to $684M. Despite a softer top line, operating margin was

strong at 5.0%, up 180 bps y/y and 110 bps q/q, largely reflecting a pull through of restructuring savings (most segment restructuring was

in P&C). Backlog of $5.510B fell 0.8% y/y but was up 7.0% q/q. Orders were solid at $1.045B, or a book to bill of 1.5x. Major awards in the

quarter included a Confidential Grassroots Chemical Facility Project in the US Gulf Coast, an Engineering Services Agreement with

TransCanada, the Linear Alpha Olefin Unit EPC Project for INEOS Oligomers in Texas, and a Refinery Upgrade FEED Project for

Singapore Refining Company.

JEC was also mixed on P&C results. By end market, JEC noted that oil & gas activity remains weak, though noted green shoots in the mid-

stream space, particularly to bring gas and NGL to non-traditional markets in LatAm, Asia, and Africa. Refining remains relatively steady

with lower capital spending partially offset by continued focus on maintenance and sustaining customer spend. Still, JEC noted green

shoots in India and South Asia tied to demand for clean transport fuels. JEC noted that downstream / petrochemical activity remains strong

and the lion share of awards are coming from this area in P&C. JEC is leveraging its know-how to move from FEED to EPC/M on

grassroots projects. Mgmt. also called out Saudi Arabia as a bright spot given the country's desire to move downstream for diversification

reasons.

Industrial

Industrial sales were solid, up 12.5% y/y and 6.1% q/q to $749.1M. Operating margin though was soft at just 1.7%, down 250 bps y/y and

230 bps q/q. Backlog results were also soft, down 14.9% y/y and 3.0% q/q to $3.106B. Orders were implied at $651.7M, or a book to bill of

0.9x. Major awards in the quarter included the Vastly Greenfield Manufacturing Project in the US, the Pfizer Global Biotechnology Center

Project in China, and the Novartis Biotechnology Center Expansion EPC Project in France.

JEC was mixed on Industrial results and future prospects. In general, mining and minerals activity remains weak though JEC is seeing

early signs of a recovery, calling out Argentina and Chile as bright spots. JEC also noted some smaller one-time mining customer

settlements in Q4'16 that explained some of the margin softness (similar to issues in Q2'16). Life science opportunities remain robust, and

JEC is currently chasing the second wave of biologic opportunities. Geographically, JEC sees opportunities in Ireland, Germany, and

Switzerland, with potential for a pickup in spend in India next year. Field service results were steady with increased project activity in the

US Gulf Coast as well as for sustaining capital services in the US and Canada. JEC sees opportunities for field services in Morocco in

FY'17.

Building

& Infrastructure

B&I sales were down 12.6% y/y but up 0.7% q/q to $557.5M. Operating margin of 7.5% was solid, up 380 bps y/y tied to better execution,

but still down 160 bps q/q. Backlog was up 6.6% y/y and 3.9% q/q to $5.034B. Implied orders were solid at $748M, or a book to bill of 1.3x.

Recent major awards include LAX Terminal Develop Work, UK Network Rail Transpennine Electrification GRIP Project, and the Darlington

Highway Upgrade Project in Australia.

Mgmt. was upbeat on global prospects for B&I. JEC is seeing better prospects for healthcare work in the US and New Zealand, and

indicated award announcements are on the horizon. Gov't building pursuits are also solid, and JEC noted recent wins with the US Navy as

well as in CA / Los Angeles. JEC is also optimistic on infrastructure prospects, particularly for transportation, rail, and aviation projects in

the US, UK, Australia, and Asia. JEC is encouraged by a step up in state & local spending in key markets like CA, FL, and TX as well as

comments from President-Elect Trump.

For FY'17, JEC expects B&I top line to improve y/y in FY'17 and should recover faster vs. other segments given expected backlog burn as

well as smaller project sizes benefiting the timing of revenue pull through.

A&T sales were down 17.8% y/y and 2.7% q/q to $650M. Operating margin of 7.2% was up 10 bps y/y but down 80 bps q/q. Backlog grew

4.7% y/y but fell 0.3% q/q to $5.11B and excludes $140M of awards that are currently under protest. Orders were implied at $633.3M, or a

book to bill of 1.0x. Major awards for the quarter included the $350M Army Corps of Engineers Remedial Action 1-year Contract, NASA

Acoustic Wind Tunnel Design Contract, and USAF Research Operations Support Services Extension.

Mgmt. remains optimistic on A&T into FY'17. Mgmt. noted that program spending continues to remain robust at key gov't customers in the

US, UK and Australia despite the US election and Brexit vote. Mgmt. noted on the call that rebid activity over the last 12-18 months has

been solid driven by new capabilities and help from a leaner cost structure. Moving forward, the focus will move from rebids to new

business opportunities, including a $20B identified pipeline of new pursuits, though mgmt. conceded timing may slip on awards tied to

elevated levels of award protests. In terms of opportunities, mgmt. called out cyber, homeland security, and the intelligence community,

which are newer, higher level technical services work (and likely higher margin) vs. legacy A&T pursuits. JEC was also upbeat on UK

Nuclear opportunities, including the Hinkley Point C new build project, which was recently sanctioned and where JEC secured a framework

agreement.

Mgmt. noted that A&T top line will likely see some pressure again in FY'17 tied to a shift from more commoditized projects (volume) to

higher level technical services work (better margin). JEC believes top line pressures should be largely alleviated by better business mix.

JEC also noted that given the stronger balance sheet, M&A is still on the table and A&T remains a key area in terms of acquisition targets.

Q4’16 Divisional / Market Commentary

Analyst Day Takeaways: Transitioning to Profitable Growth: JEC is in the later innings of its 2015 Restructuring program and is using

savings to improve margin but also reinvest in the business to drive profitable growth moving forward. High growth areas for investment

include downstream, life sciences, transportation, social infrastructure, water, and US gov't services. JEC hopes to ensure reinvestment and

growth are thoughtful through newly instituted mgmt. incentives around ROIC and margin profile of backlog. Today, 15% of the portfolio is

unprofitable and 25% is breakeven. Mgmt. will reinvest or manage away these units, which should help operating profit b/w $50-100M.

Refocusing on M&A: Legacy M&A integration was problematic. JEC has instituted new best practices and invested to better understand and

track KPI's of acquisitions post-close moving forward. Mgmt. sees opportunities for bolt-on M&A across all segments. JEC anticipates an

improvement in FCF conversion and an increase in total leverage to 2.0x, which should provide north of $1.2B of dry powder to pursue

opportunistic M&A. Introduction of FY'19 Targets: JEC expects an annual organic sales CAGR b/w 2-4% through FY'19. By segment, P&C

annual organic sales are expected b/w 2-3%, B&I sales b/w 4-5%, Industrial sales b/w 9-10%, and A&T sales b/w 5-7%. Operating margin

is expected to improve b/w 50-150 bps. By segment, P&C op margin is expected b/w 5-6%, B&I b/w 7.5-8.5%, Industrial b/w 3.5-4.5%, and

A&T b/w 7.5-8.5%. ROIC is expected to improve b/w 50-100 bps. FCF conversion is expected at 100% and total leverage at 2.0x. JEC will

also institute a dividend for the first time in Q2'17 with a contemplated yield of 1%. (Link to Note)

Is there evidence that FY’16 was the trough for EPS (normalized for project charges in FY’16) given acquisitions and gov’t backlog. Can KBR provide more

clarity on LNG project contribution (largely Ichthys) to earnings for FY’17 and what’s assumed in terms potential for favorable project close out? What are

FY’17? Any update on potential recovery from the vendors in FY’17 and is this embedded in EPS?

How should we think about the latest cost claim from UGL / CH2M Hill on the Ichthys Project? Is there any liability to KBR given the cost-plus nature of

KBR’s contract with Inpex?

How do we think about the approach to FY’17 EPS guidance relative to KBR’s historic approach to guidance given the CFO change? For Mark Sopp

specifically what attracted you to KBR and are there potential relationships you can bring to KBR that would enhance the company’s longer-term growth

opportunities? How do we think about potential changes to accounting and are you comfortable with the risk profile that is currently in backlog? KBR still has

a lot of ongoing litigation associated with the legacy government business. Is this an area you will be focused and do you have prior experience with similar

litigation?

With regards to Pemex, is KBR still confident we should have some resolution by the end of the year? How do we think about the potential use of proceeds

from Pemex in terms of priority? Given Mark Sopp’s background should we assume an even more pronounced shift to a focus on the government business

and that the traditional E&C business is less strategic or could be up for sale over the long-term? What does the M&A pipeline look like today vs. twelve

months ago? How do we think about KBR’s organic investment in the Government vs. EPC segment going forward?

How do we think about normalized FCF as a % of net income going forward with HTSI and Wyle? Also what are the new segment margin targets pro-forma

for the acquisitions? Mark Sopp, how do you think about the appropriate amount of leverage KBR can carry given the shift towards the government

business. Also do you think E&C can be restructured to be a good business or are the competitive dynamics and risks associated winning E&C work to

great?

When does KBR think backlog will bottom for the Energy business? Assuming energy capex inflects higher, where does KBR see the most growth across

the broader sector and how is the company positioned? Can KBR provide an update on potential timing of the pending LNG awards? Have customer

conversations changed more positively given energy prices today and the potential under the Trump administration?

For Technology, how do we think about the mix in FY’17 in terms of licensing / consulting vs. proprietary equipment? Are there any indications the

technology business is picking up which could have implications for the EPC business?

What are the broader implications for the Trump administration for KBR’s Government and Energy segments? Are there any initial views on what this could

mean for KBR’s tax rate longer term?

Q4’16 / FY’16 Guidance

Thoughts Post Call: KBR's stock closed down 2% after reporting an in-line quarter, while reiterating FY'16 EPS provided in early Oct. in

conjunction with the negative pre-announcement associated with two problem projects. However, more important in our opinion, KBR is

painting a more optimistic view of FY'17 earnings and beyond, relative to the street. While not providing guidance specifically for FY'17,

KBR believes earnings can grow y/y vs. a cliff event associated with the roll-off of LNG earnings as projects complete. Since last year, KBR

has strategically shifted its portfolio to a more recurring earnings base and lower risk driven by the recent government services acquisitions

of Wyle and HTSI (acquisitions are expected to be $0.20-$0.25 accretive in FY2017). To put this in perspective, as of the end of Q3'16,

government services represent 65% of KBR's $11.4B in backlog. Furthermore, KBR expects to book incremental government awards in

Q4'16, in particular KBOSS and Army 2020, which should further support FY'17 EPS growth. While the charges in the quarter were a hiccup

and under the old regime, KBR is slowing shifting to a lower risk and stable business model. We believe more acquisitions are potentially on

the table.

Q3’16 Divisional / Market Commentary

KBR, Inc. (NYSE: KBR)

Technology

& Consulting

T&C sales were down 15% y/y and 32% q/q to $67M. Included in the results was $4M of help from the Chematur acquisitions, implying

organic sales of $63M, or down 20% y/y. GP&EE was strong at $17M. Margin was better at 25.4%, up 390 bps y/y and 1010 bps q/q,

reflecting a better mix of licensing (higher margin) vs. proprietary equipment (lower margin) sales. Backlog was down 20% y/y and down

6% q/q to $340M. Orders were implied at $47M, or a book to bill of 0.7x.

KBR sees opportunities for technology and proprietary equipment in the ammonia, sygas, and refining spaces. Consulting remains

challenged tied to continued upstream O&G headwinds. Moving forward, mgmt. sees GP&EE margin in the low 20%+ range.

Engineering

& Construction

E&C sales were down 28% y/y and 4% q/q to $595M largely tied to a run-down of LNG work in Australia as well as the impact from the

deconsolidation of the Industrial Services America business, partially offset by new ammonia and chemicals projects in the US and a new

O&G project in Europe. GP&EE was soft at $12M, or a margin of 2.0%. Included in the results was $40M of ammonia project charges, a

$9M benefit from a legacy Canada project, $7M of unfavorable costs from weather delays on a US EPC project, and $3M of favorable

closeouts on an Africa LNG project. Adjusting for the various charges, GP&EE was $47M, or a margin of 7.9%, in line with mgmt.'s LT

target of HSD margins. Backlog was down 37% y/y and down 14% q/q to $3.612B. Orders were implied at just $27M.

Regarding problem projects, KBR delivered the ammonia EPC project to Dyno Nobel in October. The legacy power project (included in

non-strategic businesses) is expected to be delivered in Q2'17 and is 85% complete today. KBR is in the process of cost recovery with

vendors on the two projects but is not assuming any cost recovery in the guide. Mgmt. noted that it has several other ammonia projects in

backlog today but that the projects are largely cost-reimbursable, implying less risk moving forward.

FY'17 should not be a cliff event for LNG / E&C GP&EE contribution. Mgmt. believes that LNG should be a significant contributor to EPS

next year at similar levels to FY'16. Also, KBR sees solid opportunities in LNG moving forward. Magnolia should move to FID in late FY'17

assuming the offtakes are signed. Also, KBR is participating in four LNG FEED projects today and expects awards, especially for mid-sized

projects in the US and Canada in late FY'17, early FY'18. KBR sees base hits in the E&C opex space as well.

Government Services

GS sales were up 128% y/y and 75% q/q to $401M largely tied to acquisitions and a ramp in LogCap IV work. Results included $177M of

Wyle and two weeks, or $21M, of HTSI. Organic sales were implied at $203M, up 15% y/y but down 11% q/q. GP&EE (ex. legal fees of

<$1m) was $41M, or a margin of 10.2%, and included $12M of Wyle contribution and $2M of HTSI help. Margins were likely affected by

intangible amortization expense associated with the two acquisitions, though the impact was not quantified. Excluding acquisitions, core

margins were solid at 13.3%, in line with mgmt.'s LT target in the low-teens. Backlog was up 9% y/y and 16% q/q to $7.404B, and does not

included the $800M KBOSS project, which is under protest or the $736M UK Army 2020 project, which was awarded shortly after the close

of the quarter.

Mgmt. was upbeat on gov't tied to contribution from acquisitions, early revenue synergy base hits, and several larger potential awards on

the horizon. Mgmt. did not provide an update to acquisition synergy timing but already has $49M as of Q3. Aside from hard revenue

synergies, KBR is seeing the benefits from acquisitions in terms of win rates for new business and recompete opportunities given the

combined company's capabilities. Mgmt. sees GP&EE building into FY'17 and beyond as UK work (which is accounted under the equity

method) ramps. KBOSS is expected to begin in FY'17 after successful resolution of the protest in FY'16.

Interesting, from pro forma financials provided in the 10-Q Wyle sales in Q3'15 were implied at $226M vs. Q3'16 sales of $177M. YTD

FY'15 sales were implied $664M and YTD FY'16 sales are implied at $607M. This represents quarterly y/y and YTD y/y sales declines of

22% and 9%, respectively. Q3'16 GP&EE was $12M, or a margin of 6.8%, below the 13.3% core margins and mgmt.'s LT margins of low-

teens, though was likely impacted by unquantified intangible amortization expense.

KBR Appoints New CFO: Current CFO Brian Ferraioli to Retire, Mark Sopp from LDOS / SAIC to Takeover CFO Role: This morning, KBR announced current CFO Brian

Ferraioli's decision to retire in order to spend more time with his family. Mr. Ferraioli has served as CFO since October 2013. Brian Ferraioli is an industry veteran, and just

prior to KBR served as the CFO and EVP at The Shaw Group which was acquired by CBI. Brian Ferraioli will be replaced by Mark Sopp, who previously served as the CFO

and EVP for gov't services provider Leidos / SAIC from 2005 to 2015. The appointment of Mark Sopp is consistent with KBR's strategy to reposition its business toward the

more recurring, reimbursable gov't services end market. Recall, KBR is now ~41% of gov't services topline post the Wyle and HTSI deals (prev. 20%), with ~70% of backlog

now comprised of gov't work (prev. 58%) and ~80% of the business is now reimbursable. (Link to Note)

U.S. Appeals Court Denies Rehearing; KBR Closer to Recovering Almost Half Billion Dollar Judgment: KBR announced that in a decision involving COMMISA, a

subsidiary of KBR, the United States Second Circuit Court of Appeals denied PEMEX Exploracion y Produccion's (PEP) petition for rehearing on a judgment in favor of

COMMISA in excess of $465 million. This favorable outcome follows a decade of litigation involving two offshore natural gas treatment, processing and reinjection platforms

which COMMISA built for PEP, platforms which have been working and in use by PEP since 2004 but for which COMMISA was never fully compensated. (Link to Release)

KBR Subsidiary Expands Turnaround, Specialty Welding, Construction and Fabrication Service Capabilities: that its subsidiary, Brown & Root Industrial Services,

LLC, a leading provider of engineering, construction, and reliability-driven maintenance solutions, has acquired the MEI Group, LLC (MEI), a full-service turnaround specialist

for industrial facilities. Headquartered in White Castle, Louisiana, with more than 1,300 employees throughout the U.S. Gulf Coast region, MEI is a premier provider of

turnaround, specialty, and construction related services to the refinery, petrochemical and fertilizer markets. With the acquisition of MEI, Brown & Root Industrial Services will

grow to more than 8,500 employees across 31 locations nationwide, significantly expanding its turnaround, specialty welding, construction, and fabrication services. Terms of

the transaction were not disclosed. (Link to Release)

In the third quarter, MDR provided its initial FY’17 outlook. Specifically, MDR expects revenues of $2.7-$3.0B, operating income of $170-$190M and EPS of

$0.16-$0.19 (consensus estimates were $0.12). EBITDA is forecast b/w $260-$290M and capex $50-$70M. However since that time, MDR has already

secured a “large” (b/w $50-$250M though likely at the higher end) book and burn award from Aramco in early January and is reportedly in the mix for

$700M+ EPC award from Armaco for the fifth phase of the Safaniyah development. How do we think about the upside to earnings based on what’s been

awarded on the revenue side and margin (assuming helps with utilization)? Also assuming MDR can successfully convert current bidding opportunities into

awards, is the upside more to FY’17 or should we think about awards providing greater visibility into FY’18.

What is the margin profile of backlog and new awards? In the MEA region in particular, Aramco added a fifth member to the LTA-II, implying more

competition and potential pressure on margins. MDR has obviously been very successful winning work with Saudi Aramco. At what point is MDR concerned

earnings are too dependent on one customer?

MDR has indicated that accounts receivable should be pressured as more of the portfolio moves towards ME / brownfield work. How do we think about FCF

relative to net income in FY’17? Can you talk about payment terms with customers in the ME and Pemex and the impact on FCF going forward? How do we

think about working capital requirements and capex over the next two years?

As MDR sits here today, where do you see the most upside and or downside risk to the longer-term targets provided at your Analyst Day in November

2015? Specifically, MDR provided medium-term financial targets (3-5 years out) implying revenue potential greater than $4.5B, OI > $350M, OI margins of

8%, EBITDA > $430 and CFO >$225M. By segment, MDR medium-term target for America include revenues >$1B and margins north of 1% (really

disappointing), ME sales higher than $2.5B and margins greater than 12%, and Asia sales greater than $1B and margins greater than 5%.

MEA has been the primary driver of profitability for MDR. Given the opportunities on the horizon in the GOM, India or even East Africa, is there enough out

that ASA and/or the AEA can start to generate more consistent profitability?

Is it still your expectation, that deepwater recovers in FY’18 and when would you expect awards to inflect higher as a result? How do we think about the risk

profile associated with these jobs relative to shallow water? How would MDR characterize its competitive positioning relative to last cycle given changes in

the competitive landscape (FMC/Technip) and also given your revamped fleet and leaner cost structure?

Any initial thoughts on what the Trump administration means for McDermott’s business longer term?

Q4’16 / FY’16 Guidance

Thoughts Post Call: MDR's turnaround continues to gain traction beating Q3'16 consensus estimates again, while raising FY'16 estimates

and providing FY'17 estimates above the street. MDR executed against initiatives to streamline its costs and manage project risk, driving

profitability. Visibility remains strong with $2.4B of backlog for FY'17. Even so, MDR assumes EPS will be lower y/y (though higher than the

street) as margins are pressured by pricing and lower utilization. Assuming MDR can secure some more book-and-burn work and execute,

there is likely upside. Our concern on the name remains customer concentration, in particular Saudi Aramco, and the fact the profitability

continues to be driven by one segment. The ASA and AEA regions continue to be drags on EPS and returns. MDR is actively bidding work in

other regions such as Mexico and India, which could be drivers of broader segment profitability. We also remain concerned on pricing

pressure given customer concentration but give mgmt. credit for operating in a challenging environment.

Q3’16 Divisional / Market Commentary

McDermott (NYSE: MDR)

Asia (ASA)

ASA sales were down 60.6% y/y and 49% q/q to $154M. ASA posted an operating loss of $0.6M. Included in operating results was

$1.4M of restructuring expense and $11.8M of vessel impairment charges related to various marine assets. Excluding restructuring

and vessel impairment charges, operating income was $12.6M, or a margin of 8.2%. Backlog fell 32% y/y and 9% q/q to $820M.

Orders were soft at $72.3M or a book-to-bill of just 0.5x. In ASA, MDR has ~$900M of outstanding bids and change orders and

~$4.3B of identified new business opportunities.

Ichthys was a larger driver of revenue in the quarter, contributing $103M, though still down y/y driven by completion of

subcontractor work (a key driver of revenue recognition) in Q2'16. The project continues to progress well and is on track for

delivery in early FY'17. MDR sees several larger opportunities in Asia, including a larger project off the coast of India that is

expected to be bid in the next month. For FY'17, MDR continues to see ASA at break-even operating income levels.

Middle East (MEA)

MEA sales were up 5% y/y and 5% q/q to $335M. Operating profit was strong at $48.6M, or a margin of 14.5%. Backlog was

softer, down 12% y/y and 11% q/q to $2.530B. Orders were softer at $26M, or a book-to-bill of just 0.1x. In MEA, MDR has ~$2.3B

of outstanding bids and change orders and ~$4B of identified new business opportunities.

MEA sales were supported by continued strong activity on Aramco LTA II Lump Sum and RasGas Flow Assurance and Looping

projects, which contributed $202M in the quarter. MDR continues to see large opportunities in the near-term under the LTA II with

Aramco supported by a large backlog of bids that should move to award in the next several months. MDR believes that the lack of

awards in Q3'16 was driven by customers evaluating labor requirements vs. a delay of capital spending. MDR noted that Aramco

continues to extend its payment terms to contractors, which will continue to be a headwind for cash flows. For FY'17, MDR expects

continued strong operating margin results from MEA, mainly driven by brownfield work with NOC's.

Americas, Europe

& Africa (AEA)

AEA sales were down 28% y/y and 20% q/q to $70M. AEA posted an operating loss of $4.9M. Included in the results was $0.3M of

restructuring expense, implying an adj. operating loss of $4.6M. Backlog was up better y/y, up 61%, though down 10% q/q to

$566M. Orders were very light at just $6M, or a book-to-bill of 0.1x. MDR has ~$800M of outstanding bids and change orders and

~$4.7B of identified new business opportunities.

MDR noted that PEMEX has push out its payment terms to vendors in the 180 day range, which will continue to be a headwind for

cash collection. MDR sees more bidding opportunities in Mexico for shallow water work with PEMEX as well as offshore work

longer-term in West / East Africa as well as the North Sea, though does not contemplate the deepwater market to come back in a

meaningful way until 2018. For FY'17, MDR expects an operating loss from the AEA business.

In Power, how do we think about the margin profile of work and backlog and Quanta’s ability to achieve margins within the company’s targeted range? Can

you talk about the mix of work PWR and how that impacts profitability in 2017 and how that compares to 2016? What percent of the company’s backlog is

performing within the company’s targeted range?

What is a reasonable timeline on Keystone given President Trump’s plan to sign two executive actions today that would advance construction of the

project?

For Electric Power and Oil and Gas, can you speak to your visibility for FY2017 versus previous years and how much works needs to be secured to

achieve your topline guide?

Mgmt. noted that Canada work remains a headwind and is ~10-15% of segment sales. Moreover, Canada margins are in the low single digits vs. core

margins in the low double digit range. What are your assumptions for profits in Canada in 2017 and does that assume success in winning some of the larger

jobs would be secured in 2017?

How do we think about FCF for 2017? FCF was disappointing in 2016 related to unbilled production on a customer projected resulting in higher DSO’s. Has

there been any resolution with the customer? Also how does the ramp in mainline and large transmission impact FCF?

How do we think about the level of investment required to grow the Telecom business in 2017 and what is the expected revenues and earnings

contribution in 2017? How big can this business be in the next 18-24 months? How do we think about the margin and return profile of this business relative

to Electric Power and Oil and Gas?

For Oil & Gas Infrastructure, PWR likely has enough in the way of larger mainline awards to secure 1H’17 tied to work already in backlog as well as a

deferral of construction work on a mainline from Q3’16 to early FY’17. Moreover the larger Atlantic Coast Pipeline mainline project is now expected to move

to construction in late FY’17. Still, there is likely an air gap of large project activity mid-year. Is there evidence PWR can secure work over the next quarter or

two to grow O&G topline y/y?

How do we think about the mix of large / small pipeline projects in backlog? What are the implications for segment margins in FY’17? Is there evidence that

small diameter pipeline / gather work has stabilized and should be less of a headwind (or potentially a tailwind) next year?

What are the implications of a Trump presidency for PWR in the O&G and Electric Power business? Is PWR seeing any change in customer conversations

/ capital decisions or any easing of the regulatory environment?

Quanta historically has been a bigger player in the NE (particularly the Marcellus / Utica shales). Still, contractors and industry continue to forecast strong

capacity additions in Texas across the boarder into Mexico to supply the Mexican power sector. Is there an opportunity for PWR to have more of a footprint

in this market?

US Engineering & Construction

Q4’16 / FY’16 Guidance

Thoughts Post Call: PWR's stock closed down ~1% after beating consensus estimates by 11% (ex. one-time items) and narrowing the

range for FY'16 by 4%. We would buy on weakness, as we believe PWR is set up extremely well for FY'17. First, PWR printed very solid

margins in Electric Power and Oil & Gas, returning to targeted levels of profitability and signaling the execution issues over the past two years

are coming to an end. PWR has enough visibility today to suggest the Electric Power business can grow the top line, and we believe

execution can continue with Alaska done and based on profitability of margins in backlog driving margin's back to the targeted range for

FY'17. The Oil and Gas business should benefit in FY'17 from a project that is pushed from FY'16 next year and there is a good line of sight

to book awards, which secures work for the back half of FY'17. Furthermore, adjusting for the Alaska Power project charges in FY'16, PWR

benefits from ~$0.20 in FY'17 along with benefits from restructuring the Canadian business.

Q3’16 Divisional / Market Commentary

Quanta Services (NYSE: PWR)

Electric Transmission

EP sales were up 3.3% y/y to $1.222B largely driven by $25M of acquired company revenues. Operating margins were solid at 9.7%, up

320 bps y/y and 310 bps q/q, and included $3M of additional charges on the Alaska problem project. Adj. for the project charge, margins

were 10%, in line with mgmt.'s LT target of b/w 9-12%. EP backlog was up 5% y/y and 3% q/q to $6.520B. Twelve month backlog was

down 1% y/y but up 3% q/q to $3.363B. Orders were implied at $1.395B, or a book to bill of 1.1x.

Mgmt. noted that the Alaska problem project is now complete. PWR is in the early stages of seeking cost recovery with the client. Mgmt.

noted that the company has not recognized any cost recovery to date and potential recoveries are not contemplated in the guide (though

seem unlikely based off of comments on the call).

Mgmt. believes that the core large transmission business is healthy. PWR is executing three large projects today with several more moving

to construction in FY'17. Core margins are trending in the double digit range. Still, mgmt. noted that Canada operations remain a headwind

along with competition on small transmission projects. Mgmt. noted that Canada margins are trending in the lower single digit range and

that consolidated Canada sales are b/w 10-15% of overall topline. PWR is offsetting these headwinds by better controlling its costs to align

with current demand levels as well as better managing utilization rates as small transmission work transitions. Mgmt. was optimistic on

several large Canadian projects (namely Ft. McMurray and Labrador Island) moving to construction next year and boosting margins.

Work in the quarter was helped by storm relief work related to Hurricane Matthew. PWR expects more storm relief work in Q4'16, though

benefits will be offset by a deferral of O&G projects into FY'17.

For Q4'16, PWR expects EP sales to be flat y/y, or ~$1.292B as normal seasonality is offset by higher levels of storm work. This implies

FY'16 sales of $4.860B, or down 1.3% y/y, consistent with mgmt.'s guide of EP sales down 1-2%. FY'16 operating margins are

contemplated in the low 8% range (unchanged from the Q2 guide). This implies Q4'16 margins in the 8-9% range, consistent with mgmt.'s

informal guide on the call that margins should temper from below 10% levels realized in Q3'16.

Q3’16 Divisional / Market Commentary

Quanta Services (NYSE: PWR)

Source: ThomsonOne, Company data, Credit Suisse Estimates

Oil & Gas Pipeline

O&G sales were up 8.4% y/y to $820M driven by a ramp up of mainline work, increased customer spending for distribution services, as

well as $5M of acquired company revenue. Operating margin was solid at 8.0%, up 20 bps y/y and 610 bps q/q reflecting better volumes

as well as better mix of higher margin large diameter mainline work. Backlog was down 3% y/y and 2% q/q to $3.323B reflecting a work off

of projects in backlog as well as the timing of new awards, partially offset by scope increases of various projects. Twelve month backlog

was up 15% y/y and down 1% q/q to $2.402B. Orders were implied at $735M, or a book to bill of 0.9x.

Mgmt. noted that the two outstanding projects from Q2'16 with contingent regulatory permitting received approvals in the quarter. The

larger of the two projects moved to construction, however the smaller project is now expected to start construction in FY'17 vs. this year

and was the main driver in the reduced revenue forecast. Mgmt. believes the Atlantic Coast Pipeline likely moves to construction at the end

of FY'17, but indicated the potential for an air gap of large pipeline work in Q3'16 as work transitions and the timing of new awards remains

difficult to predict tied to a stretched permitting cycle.

Mgmt. expects current mainline work in backlog to support topline results and margins through 1H'17 and sees more mainline opportunities

on the horizon. Mgmt. also noted a stabilization for smaller diameter pipeline work. Longer-term, PWR believes that the mainline

opportunity will continue to be strong for several years into the future. In the short term, PWR still sees hurdles from a stretched permitting

cycle continuing to impact the timing of awards despite strong underlying macro drivers in the form of a lack of takeaway capacity from

larger shale plays.

For FY'16, PWR's guidance for total and EP sales implies O&G sales b/w $2.777B- 2.926B, or up 5-11% y/y (prev. implied up b/w 13-

17%). The reduction in the FY'16 implied guide has to do with a push-out of mainline work into FY'17 related to permitting delays and

construction start-up timing. This implies Q4'16 sales b/w $797- 946M, or up b/w 31-56% y/y. FY'16 operating margin is forecast in the

5.5% range (prev. b/w 5.5-7.0%). This implies Q4'16 margin b/w 7.3-9.7%, slightly below mgmt.'s LT target of b/w 9-12%.

O U T PERFO RM

The analyst(s) responsible for preparing this research report received Compensation that is based upon various factors including Credit Suisse's total revenues, a portion of which are generated by Credit Suisse's investment banking activities

As of December 10, 2012 Analysts’ stock rating are defined as follows:

Outperform (O) : The stock’s total return is expected to outperform the relevant benchmark* over the next 12 months.

Neutral (N) : The stock’s total return is expected to be in line with the relevant benchmark* over the next 12 months.

Underperform (U) : The stock’s total return is expected to underperform the relevant benchmark* over the next 12 months.

*Relevant benchmark by region: As of 10th December 2012, Japanese ratings are based on a stock’s total return relative to the analyst's coverage universe which consists of all companies covered by the analyst within the relevant sector, with Outperforms representing the most attractiv e, Neutrals the less attractive, and Underperforms the least attractive investment opportunities. As of 2nd October 2012, U.S. and Canadian as well as European ratings are based on a stock’s t otal return relative to the analyst's coverage universe which consists of all companies covered by the analyst within the relevant sector, with Outperforms representing the most attractive, Neutrals the less attractive, and Underperforms the least attractive investment opportunities. For Latin American and non-Japan Asia stocks, ratings are based on a stock’s total return relative to the average total return of the relevant country or regional benchmark; prior to 2nd October 2012 U.S. and Canadian ratings were based on (1) a stock’s absolute total return potential to its current share price and (2) the relative attractiveness of a stock’s total return potential within an analyst’s coverage universe. For Australian and New Zealand stocks, the expected total return (ETR) calculation includes 12 -month rolling dividend yield. An Outperform rating is assigned where an ETR is greater than or equal to 7.5%; Underperform where an ETR less than or equal to 5%. A Neutral may be assigned where the ETR is between -5% and 15%. The overlapping rating range allows analysts to assign a rating that puts ETR in the context of associated risks. Prior to 18 May 2015, ETR ranges for Outperform and Underperform ratings did not overlap with Neutral thresholds between 15% and 7.5%, which was in operation from 7 July 2011.

Restricted (R) : In certain circumstances, Credit Suisse policy and/or applicable law and regulations preclude certain types of communications, including an investment recommendation, during the course of Credit Suisse's engagement in an investment banking transaction and in certain other circumstances.

Not Rated (NR) : Credit Suisse Equity Research does not have an investment rating or view on the stock or any other securities related to the company at this time.

Not Covered (NC) : Credit Suisse Equity Research does not provide ongoing coverage of the company or offer an investment rating or investment view on the equity security of the company or related products.

Volatility Indicator [V] : A stock is defined as volatile if the stock price has moved up or down by 20% or more in a month in at least 8 of the past 24 months or the analyst expects significant volatility going forward.

Analysts’ sector weightings are distinct from analysts’ stock ratings and are based on the analyst’s expectations for the fundamentals and/or valuation of the sector* relative to the group’s historic fundamentals and/or valuation:

Overweight : The analyst’s expectation for the sector’s fundamentals and/or valuation is favorable over the next 12 months.

Market Weight : The analyst’s expectation for the sector’s fundamentals and/or valuation is neutral over the next 12 months.

Underweight : The analyst’s expectation for the sector’s fundamentals and/or valuation is cautious over the next 12 months.

Credit Suisse's distribution of stock ratings (and banking clients) is:

Global Ratings Distribution

Rating Versus universe (%) Of which banking clients (%)

Outperform/Buy* 44% (64% banking clients)

Neutral/Hold* 38% (60% banking clients)

Underperform/Sell* 15% (54% banking clients)

Restricted 3%

*For purposes of the NYSE and NASD ratings distribution disclosure requirements, our stock ratings of Outperfo rm, Neutral, and Underperform most closely correspond to Buy, Hold, and Sell, respectively; however, the meanings are not the same, as our stock ratings are determined on a relati ve basis. (Please refer to definitions above.) An investor's decision to buy or sell a security should be based on investment objectives, current holdings, and other individual factors.

Target Price and Rating Valuation Methodology and Risks: (12 months) for AECOM (ACM.N)

Method: Our $43 TP is based on a multiple of 8.0x our 2019 EBITDA estimate, discounted back. We see upside to the additional addressable work around the globe following the successful integration of URS as well as continued cost savings related to the acquisition. Our Outperform rating is merited based on relative upside we see for ACM relative to the group.

Risk: Risks to our Outperform rating and $43 TP include the fact that ACM derives a significant portion of their revenues from federal, state and local governments. Budget cuts or a reduction in spending among governments at any of these levels could negatively impact proposed and existing projects. Given the recent correction in oil prices, there is significant risk that demand is weaker than expected relative to assumptions when ACM acquired URS. Furthermore, a deterioration in the global non-residential construction market (which continue to perform at near-peak levels) could create additional downside for ACM.

Target Price and Rating Valuation Methodology and Risks: (12 months) for Babcock & Wilcox Enterprises (BW.N)

Method: Our $16 target price is based off a 14x earnings multiple on 2019 adjusted EPS, discounted back. Our Underperform rating for BW is merited based on the fact that we anticipate performance below the group.

Risk: Risks to our Underperform rating and our $16 target price are better than expected coal fired retirements, success with international and renewable projects more than offsetting declines in the traditional US coal business, and transformative M&A.

Target Price and Rating Valuation Methodology and Risks: (12 months) for Chicago Bridge & Iron (CBI.N)

Method: Using a EV/EBITDA multiple of 5.0x our FY19 EBITDA estimate (ex. the nuclear projects) discounted back yields a target price of $38 for Chicago Bridge & Iron. Our Outperform rating is merited based on relative upside we see for CBI relative to the group.

Risk: Risks to our Outperform rating and CBI's $38 target price include the company's exposure to risks associated with cost overruns on existing projects and success in winning new work, the health of the end markets, specifically oil and gas and water, and whether the company can find and integrate acquisitions effectively.

Target Price and Rating Valuation Methodology and Risks: (12 months) for Fluor (FLR.N)

Method: Our $58 target price for FLR is based on a price-to-earnings multiple of 18x our 2019 EPS estimate, discounted back. Our Neutral rating is based on the relative in line performance we see for FLR vs. the rest of the group.

Risk: Risks to our $58 target price and Neutral rating for FLR are the general health of endmarkets served, the company's success in winning new contracts, the company's execution on existing contracts, the company's ability to retain existing contracts, and acquisition risk.

Target Price and Rating Valuation Methodology and Risks: (12 months) for Jacobs Engineering (JEC.N)

Method: Our price target of $71 for JEC is based on 18.5x our estimated calendar 2019 EPS, discounted back. This multiple is a slight premium to the peer group as Jacobs is considered one of the most consistent E&Cs from an execution standpoint. Our Outperform rating is merited based on relative upside we see for JEC relative to the group.

Risk: Risks to our Outperform rating and our $71 price target for JEC are the general health of endmarkets served, the company's success in winning new contracts, and the company's execution on contracts.

Target Price and Rating Valuation Methodology and Risks: (12 months) for KBR Inc. (KBR.N)

Method: Our price target of $20 for KBR is 15x our 2019 EPS (earnings per share), discounted back. Our Outperform rating is merited based on relative upside we see for KBR relative to the group.

Risk: Risks to our Outperform rating and $20 target price for KBR are project cost overruns, material price escalation, loss of significant contracts provided by the U.S. Department of Defense and the U.K. Ministry of Defence, expiration of the lock-up period, a decline in crude oil or natural gas prices, and unfavorable fixed price contract terms.

Target Price and Rating Valuation Methodology and Risks: (12 months) for McDermott International (MDR.N)

Method: Our $8.80 TP on MDR assumes 6.5x our 2019 EBITDA estimate, less net debt, discounted back. Our Neutral rating is merited based on in-line performance we see for MDR relative to the group.

Risk: Risks to our Neutral rating and our $8.80 target price for MDR are the general health of endmarkets served, the company's success in winning new contracts, the company's execution on existing contracts, the company's ability to retain existing contracts, labor shortage risk, and customer concentration.

Target Price and Rating Valuation Methodology and Risks: (12 months) for Quanta Services (PWR.N)

Method: We use a 17.5x multiple on our 2019 EPS, discounted back, resulting in a $43 target price. Our Outperform rating is merited based on relative upside we see for PWR relative to the group.

Risk: Risks to our Outperform rating and $43 target price for PWR are improving health of the electric utilities; regulatory delays; catalyst needed for spending on overhaul of U.S. power grid; and integration risk from previous acquisitions.

The price, value of and income from any of the securities or financial instruments mentioned in this report can fall as well as rise. The value of securities and financial instruments is subject to exchange rate fluctuation that may have a positive or adverse effect on the price or income of such securities or financial instruments. Investors in securities such as ADR's, the values of which are influenced by currency volatility, effectively assume this risk. Structured securities are complex instruments, typically involve a high degree of risk and are intended for sale only to sophisticated investors who are capable of understanding and assuming the risks involved. The market value of any structured security may be affected by changes in economic, financial and political factors (including, but not limited to, spot and forward interest and exchange rates), time to maturity, market conditions and volatility, and the credit quality of any issuer or reference issuer. Any investor interested in purchasing a structured product should conduct their own investigation and analysis of the product and consult with their own professional advisers as to the risks involved in making such a purchase. Some investments discussed in this report may have a high level of volatility. High volatility investments may experience sudden and large falls in their value causing losses when that investment is realised. Those losses may equal your original investment. Indeed, in the case of some investments the potential losses may exceed the amount of initial investment and, in such circumstances, you may be required to pay more money to support those losses. Income yields from investments may fluctuate and, in consequence, initial capital paid to make the investment may be used as part of that income yield. Some investments may not be readily realisable and it may be difficult to sell or realise those investments, similarly it may prove difficult for you to obtain reliable information about the value, or risks, to which such an investment is exposed.
