10-Q
Fluor Corporation reported results for the three months ended March 31, 2026, with net earnings attributable to Fluor of $160 million compared with a loss of $241 million in 2025. Basic EPS was $1.10 versus a loss of $1.42 per share.
Revenue was $3.66 billion, down from $3.98 billion, as several major projects neared completion, and total segment profit fell to $8 million from $131 million due to a $96 million Mission Solutions legal charge and $37 million of cost growth on a large mining joint venture project.
Results were supported by a $124 million gain on the sale of CFHI and equity method earnings of $51 million, including a $176 million gain on NuScale forward sale contracts that more than offset NuScale fair value losses. Operating cash flow improved to $110 million from a use of $286 million.
Fluor completed or advanced the divestiture of its NuScale stake, generating $1.35 billion of proceeds in February 2026 and an additional $473 million in April 2026, and sold CFHI for $124 million. Cash and cash equivalents reached $3.19 billion, while total backlog was stable at $25.73 billion and remaining unsatisfied performance obligations were $24.53 billion.
During the quarter, the company repurchased about 11.2 million shares for $516 million, and the Board expanded the authorization to 96 million shares, leaving over 28 million shares available. Fluor also recorded a charge reflecting a federal jury’s $15 million False Claims Act damages verdict, related attorneys’ fees and other estimated amounts, and disclosed new NuScale- and Fluor-related securities litigation.
Positive
- Return to profitability and stronger cash flow: Net earnings attributable to Fluor were $160 million versus a $241 million loss a year earlier, and operating cash flow improved to $110 million from a use of $286 million, indicating a materially better financial outcome for the quarter.
- Significant liquidity from NuScale and CFHI transactions: Since September 2025, NuScale share sales have generated $2.43 billion in cash, and the CFHI sale added $124 million, helping lift cash and cash equivalents plus marketable securities to about $3.24 billion while net debt stayed low.
- Robust backlog and RUPO: Total backlog held essentially steady at $25.73 billion, with 43% outside the U.S. and 82% on reimbursable terms, and remaining unsatisfied performance obligations totaled $24.53 billion, supporting visibility into future revenue.
Negative
- Litigation and legal cost headwinds: Mission Solutions segment profit absorbed a $96 million charge from an adverse court ruling on a long-running lawsuit, and the company recorded a charge reflecting a jury’s $15 million False Claims Act damages verdict and related attorneys’ fees, alongside new securities and derivative lawsuits.
- Operational pressures and revenue decline: Revenue fell to $3.66 billion from $3.98 billion, Urban Solutions segment profit dropped sharply due to $37 million of cost growth on a large mining joint venture project, and total segment profit declined to $8 million from $131 million, highlighting execution risk.
- Large performance guarantee exposure: The maximum potential amount of future payments under outstanding performance guarantees was estimated at $13 billion, which, while not currently material as a recorded obligation, represents sizeable contingent exposure tied to project performance.
Insights
Fluor swung to profit and strengthened liquidity, but quality of earnings is heavily transaction-driven.
Fluor delivered net earnings of $160 million versus a $241 million loss, yet underlying segment profit was only $8 million. The improvement largely reflects a $124 million gain on selling CFHI and equity method gains tied to NuScale forward sale contracts.
Core operations were mixed: revenue fell to $3.66 billion, Urban Solutions and Mission Solutions margins were pressured by a $37 million mining cost overrun and a $96 million legal charge, while Energy Solutions margin improved on favorable close-out items. This pattern suggests execution and legal risks remain important profit drivers.
On the balance sheet, divesting NuScale generated about $2.43 billion since late 2025, lifting cash and securities to roughly $3.24 billion and supporting $516 million of buybacks in the quarter with plans for about $1.4 billion in 2026. Backlog of $25.73 billion and RUPO of $24.53 billion indicate a solid work base, so future results will hinge on converting this pipeline into higher-margin earnings while managing litigation outcomes.
NuScale monetization and strong cash bolster Fluor’s credit profile despite legal and project risks.
Fluor ended the quarter with $3.19 billion in cash and $52 million in marketable securities, helped by $1.35 billion of NuScale sale proceeds in February 2026 and later $473 million for the remaining shares. Debt remained approximately flat at $1.07 billion.
The company generated positive operating cash flow of $110 million and significant investing inflows, comfortably funding $516 million of share repurchases. It still has a $2.2 billion credit facility with no borrowings and letters of credit usage of $413 million, alongside uncommitted facilities.
Key risk factors include a maximum potential performance guarantee exposure of $13 billion, ongoing Santos-related insurance and appeal processes, the U.S. False Claims Act verdict with possible trebled damages, and new securities lawsuits. Nonetheless, ample liquidity, modest leverage and large, mostly reimbursable backlog provide a buffer against these uncertainties.

Remaining unsatisfied performance obligations financial
"We estimate that our RUPO will be satisfied over the following periods"
variable price forward sale agreement financial
"we entered into a variable price forward sale agreement whereby we pledged and granted a security interest"
False Claims Act regulatory
"alleging violations of the United States False Claims Act concerning Fluor’s support of American and allied warfighters"
A False Claims Act is a law that lets the government and private whistleblowers sue companies that knowingly submit false bills or statements to obtain government money or benefits. For investors it matters because such lawsuits can trigger large fines, settlements or reputational damage—similar to a leak in a ship that can force expensive repairs and slow operations—potentially reducing cash flow, increasing legal costs, and harming stock value.
performance guarantees financial
"The maximum potential amount of future payments that we could be required to make under outstanding performance guarantees"
Performance guarantees are contractual promises that a party will deliver a specified level of results—such as product quality, project milestones, revenue targets or service uptime—and will compensate the other side if those standards aren’t met. For investors, they matter because they shift risk: guarantees can protect value by creating enforceable remedies or payments if targets fail, but they also create potential liabilities and reveal how confident management or counterparties are about meeting commitments.

"we measure our performance by analyzing trends in adjusted net revenue... to exclude at-cost revenue associated with reimbursable contracts"

1. Principles of Consolidation
These financial statements do not include footnotes and certain financial information presented annually under GAAP, and therefore, should be read in conjunction with our 2025 10-K. Accounting measurements at interim dates inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than at year-end. Although such estimates are based on management’s most recent assessment of the underlying facts and circumstances utilizing the most current information available, our reported results of operations may not necessarily be indicative of results that we expect for the full year.
2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In 2026, we adopted ASU 2025-05 on measurement of credit losses for accounts receivable and contract assets. This ASU introduces a practical expedient allowing us to assume that conditions at the balance sheet date remain unchanged over the life of these assets. The adoption did not have any impact on our consolidated results.
During 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 on the disaggregation of income statement expenses or "DISE." This ASU requires additional footnote disclosure of the details of certain income statement expense line items, without changing amounts reported on the consolidated income statement. ASU 2024-03 is first effective for our annual reporting for 2027 and for our quarterly reporting beginning in 2028. We do not expect this ASU to have any impact on our consolidated results.
In May 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-03 on identifying the accounting acquirer in transactions involving VIEs. This ASU revises the guidance to require consideration of the same factors used in other business combinations when the legal acquiree is a VIE that qualifies as a business and the transaction is effected primarily through the exchange of equity interests. ASU 2025-03 is effective for our annual and quarterly reporting for 2027. We do not expect this ASU to have any impact on our consolidated results.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06 to make targeted improvements to the guidance on internal use software. This ASU removes all references to project stages in ASC 350-40 and clarifies the threshold entities apply to begin capitalizing costs. ASU 2025-06 is effective for our annual and quarterly reporting for 2028 and may be applied using a prospective, retrospective or modified transition approach. We are assessing any impact this ASU may have on our future software expenditures.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025‑11 on interim reporting. This ASU clarifies when interim reporting requirements apply, standardizes the form and content of interim financial statements and notes, and introduces a disclosure principle requiring entities to report events occurring after year end that have a material impact. ASU 2025‑11 is effective for our annual and quarterly reporting for 2028. We do not expect this ASU to have any impact on our consolidated results.

Urban Solutions. Segment profit decreased in 2026 due to cost growth totaling $37 million (or $0.25 per share) on a large mining joint venture project and a decline in execution activity for a recently completed project.
Energy Solutions. Segment profit increased in 2026 primarily due to the recognition of favorable close out items on 3 projects, offset slightly by an acceleration of profit recognition in the 2025 Quarter due to a change of scope on another project.
Mission Solutions. Segment profit declined in 2026 primarily due to the recognition of a $96 million (or $0.65 per share) charge resulting from the outcome of a court ruling on a lawsuit filed against us in 2013. Segment profit in 2025 reflected an additional reserve of $28 million resulting from an adverse ruling on a long-standing claim on a project completed in 2019.

Accounts receivable related to work performed for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures included in “Accounts receivable, net” was $224 million and $219 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

During 2026, we sold our ownership interest in CFHI for proceeds of $124 million. We recognized a gain of $124 million upon the sale as the investment had previously been fully impaired.
Variable Interest Entities
The aggregate carrying value of unconsolidated VIEs (classified under both "Investments” and “Other accrued liabilities”) was a net asset of $456 million and $425 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Some of our VIEs have debt; however, such debt is typically non-recourse to us. Our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our investments in unconsolidated VIEs is typically limited to the aggregate of the carrying value of the investment and future funding necessary to satisfy the contractual obligations of the VIE. Future funding commitments as of March 31, 2026 for the unconsolidated VIEs were $48 million.
We are required to consolidate certain VIEs. Assets and liabilities associated with the operations of our consolidated VIEs are presented on the balance sheet. The assets of a VIE are restricted for use only for the particular VIE and are not available for our general operations. We have agreements with certain VIEs to provide financial or performance assurances to clients, as discussed elsewhere.
7. Investment in NuScale
We converted our remaining NuScale voting shares (along with the associated ownership units in NuScale's operating subsidiary) into registered shares upon reaching agreement with NuScale in November 2025. In November 2025, through an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary, we entered into a variable price forward sale agreement whereby we pledged and granted a security interest in 71 million of our remaining shares in NuScale, while maintaining continuing involvement and ownership rights, and committed to sell, convey, transfer, assign and deliver those shares at the final settlement date in February 2026. Through our bank's execution, we completed the sale of all 71 million shares of NuScale in February 2026, generating total proceeds of $1.35 billion.
In February 2026, we entered into 3 variable price forward sale agreements similar to the November agreement for the final 40 million of our NuScale shares. Through our banks' execution, we completed the sale of the final 40 million shares of NuScale in April 2026, generating total proceeds of $473 million, and thereby completing the divestiture of our ownership interest in NuScale.

9. Contingencies and Commitments
We and certain of our subsidiaries are subject to litigation, claims and other commitments and contingencies, including matters arising in the ordinary course of business, of which the asserted value may be significant. We record accruals in the financial statements for contingencies when we determine that an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. While there is at least a reasonable possibility that other losses may be incurred in excess of amounts accrued, management is unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss or has determined such amounts to be immaterial, except as otherwise noted below. At present, except as set forth below, we do not expect that the ultimate resolution of any open matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations. However, legal proceedings and regulatory and governmental matters are subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings or other events could occur. Unfavorable outcomes could involve substantial monetary damages, fines, penalties and other expenditures. An unfavorable outcome might result in a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations or financial position. We might also enter into an agreement to settle one or more such matters if we determine such settlement is in the best interests of our stakeholders, and any such settlement could include substantial payments.
The following disclosures for commitments and contingencies are new or have been updated since the matter was presented in the 2025 10-K.
In March 2026, a federal court jury in the U.S. District Court for South Carolina found in Fluor’s favor on three of four claims brought against it by private plaintiffs (known as “Relators”) alleging violations of the United States False Claims Act concerning Fluor’s support of American and allied warfighters in Afghanistan under a military support contract. On the remaining claim, which involved Fluor’s management of materials, the jury awarded $15 million in damages, which is subject to trebling under the False Claims Act. We filed post-trial motions to set aside the jury verdict and enter judgment in Fluor’s favor. The Relators have asked the Court to increase the jury verdict and for penalties and attorneys’ fees. Post-trial motions are currently pending. Following resolution of those motions, the court will enter a final judgment, which either party may appeal. A final judgment is possible by the third quarter of 2026. Although Fluor is challenging the jury verdict, we recognized a charge in the 2026 Quarter reflecting the jury verdict, Fluor’s historic attorneys’ fees and an estimate of liability for the Relators’ attorneys’ fees.
In February 2026, alleged NuScale Power Corporation shareholders filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Oregon against NuScale, two NuScale executives, and Fluor (claimed as NuScale’s controlling shareholder). The plaintiffs purport to represent a class of shareholders who purchased or otherwise acquired NuScale securities between May 13, 2025, and November 6, 2025, and seek to recover damages arising from alleged violations of federal securities laws. These claims are based on statements concerning NuScale’s relationship with ENTRA1 Energy LLC, which statements the plaintiffs assert were materially misleading. We intend to contest these claims as they relate to Fluor.
There have been no substantive changes to the disclosures for the following commitments and contingencies since the matter was presented in the 2025 10-K.
Fluor Australia Ltd., our wholly-owned subsidiary (“Fluor Australia”), completed a cost reimbursable engineering, procurement and construction management services project for Santos Ltd. (“Santos”) involving a large network of natural gas gathering and processing facilities in Queensland, Australia. On December 13, 2016, Santos filed an action in Queensland Supreme Court (the “Court”) against Fluor Australia, asserting various causes of action and seeking damages and/or a refund of contract proceeds paid of AUD $1.47 billion. Santos joined Fluor to the matter on the basis of a parent company guarantee issued for the project. On July 14, 2023, a panel of 3 referees appointed by the Court (the "Panel”) recommended judgment for Santos on claims that the Panel valued at approximately AUD $790 million excluding interest and costs. While the project contract contains a liability cap of approximately AUD $236 million, the Panel found that the liability cap did not apply to Santos’s claims. Following interim applications and hearings, in August 2025, the Court generally accepted the recommendations of the panel of referees. In December 2025, we made a payment to Santos of $649 million, net of GST, in accordance with the Court’s orders. Santos’s legal fees will be assessed in a separate process. After allowing for committed insurance proceeds and reserves, we recognized a reduction to revenue of $643 million reflecting the net estimated impact of the judgment. Discussions with our insurers are ongoing and, if successful, may further reduce the ultimate obligation. We have appealed the court's decision to the Queensland Court of Appeal. The appeal hearing is currently scheduled to take place in July 2026. In mid-October 2025, five of our more than 30 insurers filed a complaint in the Superior Court of California, County of Orange, disputing coverage by seeking various declaratory judgments. We have reached an agreement with these

carriers to dismiss the action without prejudice subject to a standstill/tolling agreement.
In September 2025, purported shareholders filed a complaint against Fluor and certain of its current and former executives in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas. The plaintiffs purport to represent a class of shareholders who purchased or otherwise acquired Fluor securities between February 18, 2025 and July 31, 2025, and seek to recover damages arising from alleged violations of federal securities laws. These claims are based on statements concerning market conditions, rising costs on three infrastructure projects and the effectiveness of our risk mitigation strategies, which statements the plaintiffs assert were materially misleading. We intend to contest these claims.

14. Stock-Based Compensation
Our executive and director stock-based compensation plans are described more fully in the 2025 10-K.
Equity Awards
Performance-based award units totaling 167,643 and 273,564 were awarded to most officers, including all Section 16 officers, during the 2026 and 2025 Quarters, respectively. These awards generally cliff vest after 3 years and contain annual performance conditions for each of the 3 years of the vesting period. Under GAAP, performance-based elements of such awards are not deemed granted until the performance targets have been established. The performance targets for each year are generally established in the first quarter.
For awards granted under the 2026 and 2025 performance award plan, 70 % of the award is earned based on achievement of earnings before taxes targets over three 1-year periods and 30 % of the award is earned based on our 3-year cumulative TSR relative to companies in the S&P 500 on the date of the award. For awards granted under the 2024 performance award plan, 80 % of the award is earned based on achievement of earnings before taxes targets over three 1-year periods and 20 % of the award is earned based on our 3-year cumulative TSR relative to companies in the S&P 500 on the date of the award. The performance component of these awards is deemed granted when targets are set while the TSR component of these awards is deemed granted upon issuance. During the 2026 Quarter, the following units were granted based upon the establishment of performance targets:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and our 2025 10-K. Except as the context otherwise requires, the terms Fluor or the Registrant, as used herein, are references to Fluor and references to the company, we, us, or our, as used herein, shall include Fluor, its consolidated subsidiaries and joint ventures.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements made herein, including statements regarding our projected operating results, liquidity, capital allocation plans, backlog levels and the implementation of strategic initiatives are forward-looking in nature. Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, a “safe harbor” may be provided to us for certain of these forward-looking statements. We caution readers that forward-looking statements, including disclosures which use words such as we “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate,” "aspire," "commit," "will," "may" and similar statements, are subject to risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from stated expectations. Significant factors potentially contributing to such differences include:
•The cyclical nature of many of the markets we serve and our clients' vulnerability to poor economic conditions, such as inflation, slow growth or recessions, which may result in decreased capital investment and reduced demand for our services;
•Our failure to receive anticipated new contract awards and the related impact on our operations;
•Failure to accurately estimate the cost and schedule on our projects, potentially resulting in cost overruns or obligations, including those related to project delays and those caused by the performance of our clients, subcontractors, suppliers and partners;
•Intense competition in the global EPC industry, which can place downward pressure on our contract prices and profit margins and may increase our contractual risks;
•The inability to hire and retain qualified personnel;
•Failure of our joint venture partners to perform their venture obligations, which could impact the success of those ventures and impose additional financial and performance obligations on us;
•Failure of our suppliers or subcontractors to provide supplies or services at the agreed-upon levels or times;
•Cybersecurity breaches of our systems and information technology;
•Exposure to political and economic risks in different countries, including tariffs and trade policies, geopolitical events and conflicts, civil unrest, security issues, labor conditions and other unforeseeable events in the countries in which we do business;
•The impact of government shutdowns and spending cuts, in particular with respect to our contracts with the U.S. government;
•Project cancellations, scope adjustments or deferrals, or foreign currency fluctuations, that could reduce the amount of our backlog and the revenue and profits that we earn;
•Repercussions of events beyond our control, such as severe weather conditions, natural disasters, pandemics, political crises or other catastrophic events, that may significantly affect operations, result in higher cost or subject the company to contract claims by our clients;
•Differences between our actual results and the assumptions and estimates used to prepare our financial statements;
•Client delays or defaults in making payments;
•The potential impact of changes in tax laws and other tax matters including, but not limited to, those from foreign operations, the realizability of our deferred tax assets and the ongoing audits by tax authorities;
•Our ability to secure appropriate insurance;
•The loss of business from one or more significant clients;
•The inability to adequately protect our intellectual property rights;
•The availability of credit and financial assurances plus restrictions imposed by credit facilities, both for us and our clients, suppliers, subcontractors or other partners;
•Adverse results in existing or future litigation, regulatory proceedings or dispute resolution proceedings (including claims for indemnification), or claims against project owners, subcontractors or suppliers;
•Failure of our employees, agents or partners to comply with laws, which could result in harm to our reputation and reduced profits or losses;
•The impact of new or changing legal requirements, as well as past and future environmental, health and safety regulations including climate change regulations; and
•The risks associated with our strategic initiatives, including dispositions.
Any forward-looking statements that we may make are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. There is no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those presently anticipated by us.
Additional information concerning these and other factors can be found in our press releases and periodic filings with the SEC, including the 2025 10-K. These filings are available publicly on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov, on our website at http://investor.fluor.com or upon request from our Investor Relations Department at (469) 398-7222. We cannot control such risk factors and other uncertainties, and in many cases, cannot predict the risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties should be considered when evaluating Fluor and deciding whether to invest in our securities. Except as otherwise required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise our forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Developments in Our Business
We continue to see strong client engagement across our end markets and have recently won several front-end awards that could lead to significant full awards in the coming quarters. The pipeline of opportunities continues to show strength, particularly where demand in energy, commodities and advanced technologies are driving investment. Our teams are progressing engineering and design work so projects can move expeditiously once final investment decisions are made. While one mining project in the Middle East has slowed down due to geopolitical concerns, we continue to advance other projects in the region and are well positioned to participate in rebuilding efforts once the hostilities subside. We are also well positioned for global projects driven by energy and commodity diversification as a result of geopolitical concerns caused by the conflict. We are also currently positioning for project work in Venezuela as that market stabilizes and develops.
Through our bank's execution, we completed the sale of all 71 million shares of NuScale in February 2026, generating total proceeds of $1.35 billion. As of March 31, 2026, we had an ongoing program to sell the final 40 million of our NuScale shares but those shares remained on our balance sheet during the execution window. We completed the program in April 2026 and collected total proceeds of $473 million. Since September 2025, sales of our NuScale shares have generated $2.43 billion in cash.
During 2026, we sold our ownership interest in CFHI for proceeds of $124 million. We recognized a gain of $124 million upon the sale as the investment had previously been fully impaired.

(1)In addition to the measurements under GAAP, we measure our performance by analyzing trends in adjusted net revenue (and related margin), which we determine by reducing GAAP revenue to exclude at-cost revenue associated with reimbursable contracts for the following elements, where applicable:
•amounts associated with unaffiliated subcontractor project costs that are billed to clients without meaningful markup;
•amounts associated with costs of material that are billed to clients without meaningful markup; and
•costs of CFM that are procured by our clients and which do not give rise to meaningful markup to our billings to clients.
Such at-cost revenue is generally reflected in our project estimates at equivalent amounts within the revenue and cost elements. Therefore, we believe our adjusted net revenue represents the basis for which we earn fees for our professional services. Others in our industry may have similar terms that they use to similarly measure the earnings power of their services. Even though our involvement with at-cost revenue elements as a principal gives rise to their inclusion in our consolidated revenue, the absence of meaningful markup to them elevates the importance of this non-GAAP analysis. During 2026 and 2025 Quarters, at-cost revenue was approximately $2.1 billion and $1.9 billion, respectively (or approximately 58% and 48% of consolidated revenue). Excluding the amounts of at-cost revenue from both GAAP revenue and from project cost yields an amount that we call adjusted net margin.
(2)Total segment profit and margin are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that total segment profit provides a meaningful perspective on our results as it is the aggregation of individual segment profit measures that we use to evaluate and manage our performance.
(3)Backlog at March 31, 2026 was level with backlog at December 31, 2025. Backlog may include significant estimated amounts of third-party, subcontracted, CFM and pass-through costs. We do not report new awards or backlog for projects related to our equity method investments even though these awards may be significant contributors to earnings in future periods. Although backlog reflects business that is considered to be firm, cancellations, deferrals or scope adjustments may occur. During the 2026 Quarter, project adjustments totaling $1.1 billion included a scope increase on a DOE project and an increase in CFM on a metals project.
(4)Includes backlog of $169 million and $255 million for legacy projects in a loss position as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Revenue decreased in 2026 primarily due to a decline in execution activity for several recently completed projects and projects nearing completion as well as reduced volume on certain Mission Solutions projects partially offset by a ramp up of execution activities on several large projects in our Urban Solutions segment.
Earnings before taxes decreased in 2026 due to the impact of an unfavorable court ruling on a DOD project and cost growth on a large mining joint venture project, partially offset by the gain on the sale of CFHI.
Net earnings (loss) excluding amounts attributable to equity method earnings (loss) were as follows:

Segment Operations
Urban Solutions
Revenue increased in 2026 due to the ramp up of execution activities on life sciences and mining and metal projects. The increase in 2026 revenue was partially offset by a decline in execution activity for a recently completed project. During the 2026 and 2025 Quarters, at-cost revenue for Urban Solutions was approximately $1.5 billion and $1.2 billion, respectively (or approximately 63% and 57% of their segment revenue).
Segment profit and profit margin declined in 2026 due to cost growth of $37 million on a large mining joint venture project and a decline in execution activity for a recently completed project.
New awards decreased in 2026 compared to 2025 due to a large life sciences award booked in 2025. New awards in 2026 included a full notice to proceed on a large aluminum project in the Middle East, incremental work for a pharmaceutical facility, infrastructure expansion on a mine in Chile and a limited notice to proceed on a large-scale data center project in the U.S. Backlog as of March 31, 2026 increased compared to backlog at December 31, 2025 due to the new award activity. Our staffing business does not report new awards or backlog.
Energy Solutions
Revenue decreased in 2026 primarily due to a decline in execution activity for several projects nearing completion. These declines in revenue were partially offset by increased activity on a North American refinery project. During both the 2026 and 2025 Quarters, at-cost revenue for Energy Solutions was approximately $314 million and $472 million, respectively (or approximately 45% and 39% of their segment revenue).
Segment profit and profit margin increased in 2026 primarily due to the recognition of favorable close out items on 3 projects, offset slightly by an acceleration of profit recognition in the 2025 Quarter due to a change of scope on another project.
New awards in the 2026 Quarter were consistent with new awards in the 2025 Quarter. Backlog declined in 2026 due to the execution pace exceeding new award activity.
Mission Solutions
Revenue declined in 2026 largely due to the completion of the contractual periods of performance at 2 DOE projects, one in the Gulf Coast region and one in Ohio. We continue to participate as a minority partner in the new joint venture providing services to the DOE site in Ohio. Additionally, revenue declined due to reduced hurricane support and emergency relief services volume. These revenue declines were partially offset by increased service volume at a DOE site in South Carolina. During both the 2026 and 2025 Quarters, Mission Solutions had no meaningful amounts of at-cost revenue.
Segment profit and profit margin declined in 2026 primarily due to the recognition of a $96 million charge resulting from the outcome of a court ruling on a lawsuit filed against us in 2013. Segment profit in 2025 reflected an additional reserve of $28 million resulting from an adverse ruling on a long-standing claim on a project completed in 2019.
New awards increased in 2026 compared to 2025. Backlog included $1.1 billion and $1.0 billion of unfunded government contracts as of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, respectively. Unfunded backlog reflects our estimate of future revenue under awarded government contracts for which funding has not yet been appropriated. We do not report new awards or backlog for projects related to our equity method investments even though these awards may be significant contributors to earnings in future periods.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our liquidity arises from available cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, cash generated from operations, capacity under our credit facility and, when necessary, access to capital markets. In 2026, liquidity was positively impacted by proceeds from the sales of NuScale shares and CFHI. We have committed and uncommitted lines of credit available for revolving loans and letters of credit. We believe that for at least the next 12 months, anticipated cash generated from operations, along with our unused credit capacity and cash position, is sufficient to support operating requirements and debt maturities. We regularly review our sources and uses of liquidity and may pursue opportunities to address our liquidity needs.
Our credit facility contains provisions that will require us to provide collateral to secure the facility should we be downgraded to BB by S&P and Ba2 by Moody's, which is a one notch downgrade from both agencies' current ratings. If we were required to provide collateral, it would consist broadly of liens on our U.S. assets.
As of March 31, 2026, letters of credit totaling $413 million were outstanding under our $2.2 billion credit facility, which matures in February 2028. This credit facility contains customary financial covenants, including a debt-to-capitalization ratio that cannot exceed 0.60 to 1.00, based upon total shareholders' equity excluding AOCI, a limitation on the aggregate amount of debt of the greater of $750 million or €750 million for our subsidiaries, and a minimum liquidity threshold of $1.1 billion, all as defined in the amended credit facility, which may be reduced to $1.0 billion upon the repayment of debt. Borrowings under the facility, which may be denominated in USD, EUR or GBP, bear interest at a base rate, plus an applicable borrowing margin. As of March 31, 2026 and through the issuance of this 10-Q, we had not made any borrowings under our credit facility. We have a sub-limit of up to $1.0 billion in aggregate cash advances and financial letters of credit available to us under our credit facility with a current borrowing capacity of $903 million.
Cash and cash equivalents combined with marketable securities were $3.2 billion and $2.2 billion as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Cash and cash equivalents are held in numerous accounts throughout the world to fund our global project execution activities. Non-U.S. cash and cash equivalents amounted to $939 million as of March 31, 2026 and $820 million as of December 31, 2025. Non-U.S. cash and cash equivalents exclude deposits of U.S. legal entities that are invested in offshore, overnight accounts or short-term time deposits, to which there is unrestricted access.
Cash and cash equivalents held by our consolidated variable interest entities (which totaled $336 million and $328 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively) were not necessarily readily available for general purposes. We do not include our share of cash held by our proportionately consolidated joint ventures and partnerships in our consolidated cash balances even though these amounts may be significant. We also consider the extent to which client advances (which totaled $10 million and $14 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively) are likely to be sustained or consumed over the near term for project execution activities and the cash flow requirements of our various foreign operations. In some cases, it may not be financially efficient to move cash and cash equivalents between countries due to statutory dividend limitations and/or adverse tax consequences. We did not consider any cash to be permanently reinvested outside the U.S. as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, other than unremitted earnings required to meet our working capital and long-term investment needs in non-U.S. foreign jurisdictions where we operate.
In February 2026, we completed the sale of 71 million shares of NuScale via a variable price forward sale agreement, generating total proceeds of $1.35 billion. In April 2026, we completed the sale of the final 40 million shares of NuScale via variable price forward sale agreements, generating total proceeds of $473 million, and thereby completing the divestiture of our ownership interest in NuScale. Since September 2025, sales of our NuScale shares have generated $2.43 billion in cash.
During 2026, we spent $516 million to repurchase and cancel 11 million shares of common stock under our repurchase program. In February 2026, our board authorized a 30 million share expansion to the repurchase program. Over 28 million shares could still be purchased under the program as of March 31, 2026. We are targeting approximately $1.4 billion in share repurchases in 2026.

Operating Activities
Cash flows from operating activities result primarily from our core EPC activities and are affected by our earnings level and changes in working capital associated with such activities. Working capital levels vary from period to period and are primarily affected by our volume of work and billing schedules on our projects. These levels are also impacted by the stage of completion and commercial terms of engineering and construction projects, as well as our execution of our projects compared to their budget. Working capital requirements also vary by project as well as the payment terms agreed to with our clients, vendors and subcontractors. Most contracts require payments as the projects progress. Additionally, certain projects receive advance payments from clients. A typical trend for our lump-sum projects is to have higher cash balances during the initial phases of execution due to deposits paid to us which then diminish toward the end of the construction phase. As a result, our cash position is reduced as customer advances are utilized, unless they are replaced by advances on other projects. We maintain cash reserves and borrowing facilities to provide additional working capital in the event that a project’s net operating cash outflows exceed its available cash balances. As of March 31, 2026, our backlog included $169 million for ongoing legacy projects in a loss position, including approximately $181 million of estimated unfunded losses associated therewith. The comparable amounts at December 31, 2025 were $255 million of backlog and $212 million of unfunded losses.
Operating cash flow for the 2026 Quarter significantly improved despite the annual payout of employee incentive awards. The increase in operating cash flow is primarily due to decreases in working capital on several large projects as well as distributions from a large Energy Solutions joint venture and a Mission Solutions joint venture. During the 2026 Quarter, we funded $55 million on a consolidated infrastructure project. Our operating cash flow for the 2025 Quarter was negatively impacted by increases in working capital on several large projects. Our operating cash flow is typically lower in the first quarter of each year due to the timing of payout of employee incentive awards from the prior year.

Investing Activities
In February 2026, we completed the sale of 71 million shares of NuScale via a variable price forward sale agreement, generating total proceeds of $1.35 billion. We also completed the sale of the final 40 million shares of NuScale in April 2026 for total proceeds of $473 million.
We hold cash in bank deposits and marketable securities which are governed by our investment policy. This policy focuses on, in order of priority, the preservation of capital, maintenance of liquidity and maximization of yield. These investments may include money market funds, bank deposits placed with highly-rated financial institutions, repurchase agreements that are fully collateralized by U.S. Government-related securities, high-grade commercial paper and high quality short-term and medium-term fixed income securities.
Capital expenditures in 2026 primarily related to investments in construction equipment on infrastructure projects and in IT compared to primarily IT investments in 2025.
Proceeds from sales of assets during the 2026 Quarter included $124 million from the sale of our ownership interest in CFHI compared to $61 million from the sale of Stork's U.K. operations during the 2025 Quarter.
Investments in partnerships and joint ventures in the 2026 Quarter included $32 million in funding on a proportionately consolidated loss project for an infrastructure joint venture compared to $55 million during the 2025 Quarter.
Financing Activities
We have an ongoing stock repurchase program, authorized by our Board of Directors, to purchase shares in the open market or privately negotiated transactions at our discretion. During the 2026 Quarter, we repurchased 11 million shares of common stock under the repurchase program for total consideration of $516 million. Since we restarted the program in the fourth quarter of 2024, a total of 32 million shares have been purchased for $1.4 billion.
Capital contributions by NCI represent cash inflows from partners of consolidated partnership or joint ventures created primarily for the execution of single contracts or projects. Capital contributions by NCI during the 2026 Quarter related to an infrastructure joint venture.
During the 2025 Quarter, we redeemed $18 million of the aggregate outstanding 2028 Notes. The impact on earnings was immaterial.
Letters of Credit
As of March 31, 2026, letters of credit totaling $413 million were outstanding under committed lines of credit. As of March 31, 2026, letters of credit totaling $851 million were outstanding under uncommitted lines of credit including letters of credit totaling $343 million for two lump-sum projects in Kuwait that are substantially complete except for the resolution of unapproved change orders and extension of time claims. Letters of credit are ordinarily provided to indemnify our clients if we fail to perform our obligations under our contracts. Surety bonds may be used as an alternative to letters of credit.
Guarantees
The maximum potential amount of future payments that we could be required to make under outstanding performance guarantees, which represents the remaining cost of work to be performed, was estimated to be $13 billion as of March 31, 2026.
Financial guarantees, made in the ordinary course of business in certain limited circumstances, are entered into with financial institutions and other credit grantors and generally obligate us to make payment in the event of a default by the borrower. These arrangements generally require the borrower to pledge collateral to support the fulfillment of the borrower’s obligation.
