Second Quarter Fiscal 2024 Highlights

  • Reflecting as reported performance from continuing operations, revenue increased 13% to $3.9 billion, operating income increased 2% to $200 million, the operating margin decreased 60 basis points to 5.1% due to restructuring-related expenses, net income decreased 6% to $111 million, and diluted earnings per share decreased 4% to $0.81.
  • Net service revenue2 increased by 8%, driven by the Water, Transportation and Environment end markets, where AECOM is ranked #1 by ENR, and a growing contribution from larger wins.
    • The net service revenue growth rate included an approximately 100 basis point headwind from fewer working days compared to the prior year period.
  • The segment adjusted 1 operating margin 3 increased by 70 basis points to 15.1% and the adjusted EBITDA margin 5 increased by 40 basis points to 15.4%; both metrics set a new second quarter record driven by the benefits of growth, operating efficiencies, and strong execution, while enabling strong investments in business development.
  • Adjusted 1 EBITDA 4 increased by 10% to a new record and adjusted 1 EPS increased by 13%; adjusted 1 EPS increased by 17% on an operational basis 8 , which was partially offset by a higher tax rate compared to the prior year.
  • Total backlog increased by 3% 7 to a record level driven by a continued high win rate and a growing contribution from larger wins that enhance long-term earnings visibility.

‒ Program Management backlog increased by 45% to a record high, with strength driven by large Transportation, Water, and energy transition related wins.
