net revenue financial
"Revenue and revenue, net of subcontractor costs (net revenue)1, in the second quarter totaled"
Net revenue is the total amount of money a company earns from selling its products or services after subtracting any returns, discounts, or refunds. It shows how much actual income the company keeps from its sales. This figure is important because it reveals the true earnings from business activities, helping people understand how well the company is doing.
EBITDA financial
"Operating income was $132 million and EBITDA1 was $146 million;"
EBITDA stands for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. It measures a company's profitability by focusing on the money it makes from its core operations, ignoring expenses like taxes and accounting adjustments. Investors use EBITDA to compare how well different companies are performing financially, as it provides a clearer picture of operational success without the influence of financial structure or accounting choices.
adjusted EPS financial
"EPS was $0.36 and adjusted EPS1 was $0.34."
Adjusted earnings per share (adjusted eps) is a measure of a company's profit per share that has been modified to exclude certain one-time or unusual items, such as costs from restructuring or asset sales. It provides a clearer picture of the company’s core performance by removing events that may distort the usual earnings. Investors use adjusted eps to better understand a company's ongoing profitability and compare it more accurately over time.
backlog financial
"Backlog was $4.28 billion at the end of the second quarter, up 8% sequentially."
A backlog is the amount of work or orders that a company has received but hasn't completed yet. It’s like a restaurant with many dishes to serve; the backlog shows how many orders are still waiting to be finished. It matters because a large backlog can indicate strong demand or potential delays in delivering products or services.
DSO financial
"Cash from operations was $165 million in the second quarter and $688 million over the trailing twelve months, resulting in a DSO of 58 days."
Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) measures how long, on average, a company takes to collect payment after making a sale. Think of it as the number of days cash is tied up in unpaid invoices: a higher DSO is like waiting longer to be paid and can signal cash flow stress, while a lower DSO means faster collections and healthier working capital—important for assessing liquidity and operational efficiency.
Regulation G regulatory
"To supplement the financial results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles... within the meaning of Regulation G"
Regulation G is a U.S. securities rule that requires companies to show and explain how any highlighted financial numbers that differ from standard accounting figures were calculated, and to provide a clear bridge to the official results. For investors this acts like a recipe card: when a company presents a simplified or adjusted profit number, Regulation G forces them to show the original ingredients and steps so readers can judge whether the adjusted figure gives a clearer or misleading picture of financial health.

Executive Management Comments

 

Roger Argus, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We delivered a strong second quarter, driven by growth across our end markets in water, environment, and sustainable infrastructure. In U.S. federal, we saw increased orders from defense agencies related to new facilities and infrastructure modernization. Our high-end consulting services for providing water supplies and mitigating environmental impacts are increasingly critical to gaining community support for the establishment of data centers. Our international operations grew due to demand for front-end water and infrastructure consulting services. These positive trends led to backlog growth and improved revenue visibility for the remainder of the year, leading to our increased guidance for fiscal 2026.”

 

Steve Burdick, Chief Financial Officer, stated, “Tetra Tech has started off the first half of fiscal 2026 with the strongest cash flow generation on record with $238 million from operations. These exceptional cash flows have consequently provided better returns for shareholders through our stock buyback program, which has returned $100 million so far this year, and our cash dividend program. Our ability to consistently generate cash in excess of net income has allowed the Company to once again increase our quarterly cash dividends by an additional 11% over last year. Cash generated over the last twelve months of $688 million has allowed us to fund acquisitions, complete stock buybacks, and pay dividends, while deleveraging our net debt by more than 25% from this time last year.”

 

Quarterly Dividend and Share Repurchase Program

 

On April 27, 2026, Tetra Tech’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend in the amount of $0.072 per share, an 11% increase year-over-year, payable on June 2, 2026, to stockholders of record as of May 14, 2026. This is the 44th consecutive double-digit increase in the Company’s quarterly dividend. In the second quarter of fiscal 2026, Tetra Tech repurchased $50 million of common stock. Additionally, as of March 29, 2026, the Company had $498 million remaining under its share repurchase program.

 

Six-Month Results

 

Revenue for the six-month period was $2.43 billion and net revenue was $2.09 billion. Net revenue increased 8% Y/Y excluding USAID / DOS and disasters. Operating income was $273 million, EPS was $0.76, and cash flow from operations was $238 million.

 

Business Outlook

 

The following statements are based on current expectations. These statements are forward-looking, and the actual results could differ materially. These statements do not include the potential impact of transactions that may be completed or developments that become evident after the date of this release. The Business Outlook section should be read in conjunction with the information on forward-looking statements at the end of this release.

 

For fiscal 2026, Tetra Tech is increasing the full year guidance for net revenue2 to range from $4.25 billion to $4.40 billion and adjusted EPS3 to range from $1.50 to $1.58. For the third quarter of fiscal 2026, Tetra Tech expects net revenue to range from $1.05 billion to $1.10 billion and EPS to range from $0.38 to $0.41.

 

 

2Reconciliation of the net revenue guidance to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable efforts because the Company cannot predict the magnitude and timing of all the components, including subcontractor costs, required to provide such reconciliation with sufficient precision.
3The only adjustments in our guidance for EPS are to exclude the gain on business disposition and contingent consideration in the first six months of fiscal 2026.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

To supplement the financial results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), we present certain non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We provide these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe they provide a valuable perspective on our financial results. However, non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation and are not in accordance with, or a substitute for, GAAP measures. In addition, other companies may define non-GAAP measures differently which limits the ability of investors to compare non-GAAP measures of Tetra Tech to those used by our peer companies. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is set forth above in this release.
