Fiscal 2023 Financial Guidance

  • AECOM expects to deliver another year of record profitability for the Professional Services business with accelerating NSR growth, margin expansion, and strong per share profit growth including:
    • Organic NSR2 growth accelerating to approximately 8%; actual NSR growth, which incorporates the impact of the strong U.S. dollar, is forecasted to increase by approximately 4%.
    • An adjusted1 operating margin of approximately 14.6%, a 40 basis point increase from the prior year, which includes strong underlying performance, an estimated 10 to 20 basis point impact from foreign exchange rate translation, and ongoing investments in growth.
    • Adjusted1 EBITDA4 of between $935 million and $975 million, an increase of 10% on a constant-currency basis at the mid-point.
    • Adjusted1 EPS of between $3.55 and $3.75, an increase of 10% on a constant-currency basis at the mid-point, which does not include expected incremental share repurchases.
    • Excluding changes in foreign exchange rates since the start of fiscal 2022, fiscal 2023 adjusted1 EBITDA4 guidance would have exceeded $1 billion at the mid-point, which is ahead of the performance contemplated in the Company’s fiscal 2024 financial targets driven by accelerating NSR growth and strong profitability.
  • Other assumptions incorporated into guidance:
    • An average fully diluted share count of 141 million, which reflects only shares repurchased to-date, though the Company intends to continue repurchasing stock that would provide a benefit to per share earnings.
    • An effective tax rate of between 24% and 26%.
  • The Company expects free cash flow5 of between $475 million and $675 million, reflecting continued strong underlying cash conversion within the Professional Services business.
    • The stronger U.S. dollar equates to an approximately $25 million year-over-year headwind to free cash flow.

Long-Term Fiscal 2024 Financial Targets, Including Increased ROIC Target

  • AECOM is on track to deliver on its long-term fiscal 2024 financial targets, including adjusted1 EPS of $4.75+ and a 15% segment adjusted1 operating margin3.
  • Underpinning this guidance is operational outperformance to date, including accelerating organic NSR growth and continued margin expansion.
  • Additionally, the Company is increasing its fiscal 2024 return on invested capital6 target to 17% from 15%, which reflects strong margin performance and working capital management.
  • Importantly, the Company is more profitable than ever with an expanded long-term earnings power, reflecting the benefits of its Think and Act Globally strategy and strong business execution.

Fourth Quarter and Full Year Fiscal 2022 Highlights

  • Fourth quarter revenue increased 2% to $3.4 billion, operating income increased 8% to $184 million, the operating margin increased 30 basis points to 5.4%, net income increased 21% to $115 million and diluted earnings per share increased 26% to $0.82.
  • Fourth quarter NSR2 growth in the design business, which accounts for approximately 90% of NSR and adjusted EBITDA, accelerated to 9%, a high point for the year and the highest quarterly growth rate in more than a decade.
  • The segment adjusted1 operating margin3 was 14.6% in the fourth quarter, which contributed to a full year margin of 14.2%, which is a 40 basis point increase over the prior year and exceeded the Company’s guidance.
    • The Company continued to expand margins while investing in growth and despite the impacts from the stronger U.S. dollar.
  • Full year adjusted1 EBITDA4 increased by 9% and adjusted1 EPS increased by 23%.
    • Adjusted for foreign exchange impacts to fiscal 2022 results as compared to initial guidance, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS increased by 10% and 26%, respectively.
  • Total backlog in the design business increased by 8%7, including a 1.2 book-to-burn ratio8 in the Americas design business in the fourth quarter.

Cash Flow, Balance Sheet and Capital Allocation Update

  • Fourth quarter operating cash flow of $316 million and free cash flow5 of $257 million contributed to full year operating cash flow of $714 million and free cash flow of $586 million, which resulted in achieving the Company’s free cash flow guidance for an eighth consecutive year.
  • The Company’s capital allocation policy is built on deploying capital to the highest returning opportunities, including investments in organic growth and the continued intent to return substantially all available cash flow to stockholders through share repurchases and dividends.
    • Returned nearly $500 million to stockholders in fiscal 2022 through share repurchases and dividends.
    • Capital returns over the past 12 months equate to approximately 5% of the Company’s current market capitalization.
    • Repurchased 16% of shares outstanding since the initiation of the repurchase program in September 2020.
  • The Company continues to benefit from a strong balance sheet that provides a competitive advantage, with approximately 80% of its debt fixed, swapped to fixed, or capped over the next several years and no bond maturities until 2027.

“We delivered another year of strong performance, expanded the earnings power of the company, furthered our competitive advantages, and won transformative projects that speak to our technical leadership and create increased visibility,” said Troy Rudd, AECOM’s chief executive officer. “Our performance is enabling us to invest in our teams like never before, including enhancing our healthcare program and expanding leadership development opportunities. Investing in our teams is critical to creating the best platform in the industry where our professionals can build meaningful careers. As we look ahead, our guidance reflects the strength of our backlog, driven by an all-time high win rate and a returns-focused approach to allocating resources. This is balanced against varied macroeconomic trends across our markets. Importantly, the long-term growth drivers for our business are well intact, and we have built an agile organization with a proven ability to grow through periods of uncertainty.”

“Through the realization of our Think and Act Globally strategy and as leaders in the high-value transportation, water, environment and green design markets, we are better positioned than ever to capitalize on multiple secular growth drivers that are positively impacting our markets,” said Lara Poloni, AECOM’s president. “These trends include a global infrastructure investment renaissance, growing demand for sustainability and resilience-related services, and post-COVID supply chain and resource adaptation. Our clients are prioritizing investments in these areas. Our earnings growth, record win rate and pipeline, and our backlog growth are a testament to our ability to deploy our industry-leading technical expertise at scale.”

“Our disciplined focus on high-returning organic growth, expanding margins and returning capital to our shareholders through repurchases and our quarterly dividend program are a reflection of our commitment to shareholder value creation,” said Gaurav Kapoor, AECOM’s chief financial officer. “Our balance sheet remains in a strong position and we delivered another year of cash flow above the mid-point of our guidance range. We will continue to benefit from a high degree of balance sheet and cash flow certainty, which furthers our competitive advantages.”

Forward-Looking Statements

All statements in this communication other than statements of historical fact are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of federal and state securities laws, including any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives for future operations, profitability, strategic value creation, coronavirus impacts, risk profile and investment strategies, and any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance, and the expected financial and operational results of AECOM. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results could differ materially from those projected or assumed in any of our forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results, performance and achievements, or industry results to differ materially from estimates or projections contained in our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: our business is cyclical and vulnerable to economic downturns and client spending reductions; impacts caused by the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, economic instability and market volatility, including the reaction of governments such as any prolonged period of travel, commercial or other similar restrictions, the delay in commencement, or temporary or permanent halting of construction, infrastructure or other projects, requirements that we remove our employees or personnel from the field for their protection, and delays or reductions in planned initiatives by our governmental or commercial clients or potential clients; losses under fixed-price contracts; limited control over operations run through our joint venture entities; liability for misconduct by our employees or consultants; failure to comply with laws or regulations applicable to our business; maintaining adequate surety and financial capacity; potential high leverage and inability to service our debt and guarantees; ability to continue payment of dividends; exposure to political and economic risks in different countries, including tariffs; currency exchange rate and interest fluctuations; retaining and recruiting key technical and management personnel; legal claims; inadequate insurance coverage; environmental law compliance and adequate nuclear indemnification; unexpected adjustments and cancellations related to our backlog; partners and third parties who may fail to satisfy their legal obligations; AECOM Capital real estate development projects; managing pension cost; cybersecurity issues, IT outages and data privacy; risks associated with the expected benefits and costs of the sale of our Management Services and self-perform at-risk civil infrastructure, power construction and oil and gas construction businesses, including the risk that any contingent purchase price adjustments from those transactions could be unfavorable and result in lower aggregate cash proceeds and any future proceeds owed to us under those transactions could be lower than we expect; as well as other additional risks and factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our forward-looking statements set forth in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Any forward-looking statements are made as of the date hereof. We do not intend, and undertake no obligation, to update any forward-looking statement.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release contains financial information calculated other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The Company believes that non-GAAP financial measures such as adjusted EPS, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net/operating income, adjusted tax rate, net service revenue and free cash flow provide a meaningful perspective on its business results as the Company utilizes this information to evaluate and manage the business. We use adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS to exclude the impact of certain items, such as amortization expense and taxes to aid investors in better understanding our core performance results. We use free cash flow to represent the cash generated after capital expenditures to maintain our business. We present net service revenue to exclude subcontractor costs from revenue to provide investors with a better understanding of our operational performance. We present adjusted operating margin to reflect segment operating performance of our Americas and International segments, excluding AECOM Capital.

Our non-GAAP disclosure has limitations as an analytical tool, should not be viewed as a substitute for financial information determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP, nor is it necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures is found in the Regulation G Information tables at the back of this release. The Company is unable to reconcile its non-GAAP financial guidance and long-term financial targets due to uncertainties in these non-operating items as well as other adjustments to net income.
