MASTEC, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1 – Business, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of the Business
MasTec, Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries, “MasTec” or the “Company”) is a leading infrastructure construction company operating mainly throughout North America across a range of industries. The Company’s primary activities include the engineering, building, installation, maintenance and upgrade of communications, energy, utility and other infrastructure, such as: wireless, wireline/fiber and customer fulfillment activities; petroleumpower generation, including from clean energy and natural gasrenewable sources; pipeline infrastructure; electrical utility transmission and distribution; power generation, including from renewable sources; heavy civil; and industrial infrastructure. MasTec’s customers are primarily in these industries. MasTec reports its results under 5 reportable segments: (1) Communications; (2) Clean Energy and Infrastructure; (3) Oil and Gas; (3)(4) Electrical Transmission; (4) Power Generation and Industrial; and (5) Other. See Note 13 - Segments and Related Information.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Pursuant to these rules and regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 20192020 is derived from the Company’s audited financial statements as of that date. Because certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted, these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 20192020 contained in the Company’s 20192020 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “2019“2020 Form 10-K”). In management’s opinion, all normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented have been included. When necessary, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Interim period operating results do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year. The Company believes that the disclosures made in these consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information not misleading.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include MasTec, Inc. and its subsidiaries and include the accounts of all majority owned subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control and, when applicable, entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Other parties’ interests in entities that MasTec consolidates are reported as non-controlling interests within equity, except for mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests, which are recorded within liabilities. Net income or loss attributable to non-controlling interests is reported as a separate line item below net income or loss. The Company’sCompany applies the equity method of accounting for its investments in entities for which the Companyit does not have a controlling financial interest, but over which it has the ability to exert significant influence, are accounted for using the equity methodinfluence. See Note 4 - Fair Value of accounting.Financial Instruments. For equity investees in which the Company has an undivided interest in the assets, liabilities and profits or losses of an unincorporated entity, but does not exercise control over the entity, the Company consolidates its proportional interest in the accounts of the entity.
Translation of Foreign Currencies
The assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries with a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates, with resulting translation gains or losses included within other comprehensive income or loss. Revenue and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at average rates of exchange during the applicable period. Substantially all of the Company’s foreign operations use their local currency as their functional currency. For foreign operations for which the local currency is not the functional currency, the operation’s non-monetary assets are remeasured into U.S. dollars at historical exchange rates. All other accounts are remeasured at current exchange rates. Gains or losses from remeasurement are included in other income or expense, net. Currency gains or losses resulting from transactions executed in currencies other than the functional currency are included in other income or expense, net.
In these consolidated financial statements, “$” means U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.
Management Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates are based on historical experience and various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the resultscircumstances, including the potential future effects of whichthe COVID-19 pandemic, climate change, and other relevant global and/or macroeconomic trends and events. These estimates form the basis offor making judgments about the Company’s operating results and the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. While management believes that such estimates are reasonable when considered in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations taken as a whole, actual results could differ materially from these estimates.
Key estimates include: the recognition of revenue and project profit or loss, which the Company defines as project revenue, less project costs of revenue, including project-related depreciation, in particular, on construction contracts accounted for under the cost-to-cost method, for which the recorded amounts require estimates of costs to complete and the amount and probability of variable consideration included in the contract transaction price; fair value estimates, including those related to acquisitions, valuations of goodwill and intangible assets, acquisition-related contingent consideration and other liabilities, equity investments;investments and other long-lived assets; allowances for credit losses; asset lives used in

computing depreciation and amortization; fair values of financial instruments; self-insurance liabilities; other accruals and allowances; income taxes; and the estimated effects of litigation and other contingencies.
COVID-19 Pandemic
During the first quarter of 2020, the World Health Organization declared a global pandemic related to the rapidly growing outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”). The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted business activities and significantly affected global economic conditions in 2020 and continuing into 2021 as federal, state and local governments imposed restrictions and mitigation measures to address the public health crisis, the effects of which resulted in workforce, supply chain and production disruptions and created significant uncertainties in the U.S. and global economies. While the adverse effects of these restrictions and mitigation measures partially subsided in the second half of 2020 and into 2021, the possibility of future restrictions remains in the event of a rise in the number of COVID-19 cases in the future.
As a provider of essential services, all of the Company’s business segments continued to operate throughout 2020 and into 2021, and where safe and possible, the Company’s customers generally directed it to maintain normal work schedules. The Company’s business model has, thus far, proven resilient, and management believescontinues to adapt to the changing operational and economic environment that such estimateshas resulted from the COVID-19 pandemic. Management’s top priority has been to take appropriate actions to protect the health and safety of its employees, customers and business partners. The Company has adjusted its standard operating procedures within its business operations to ensure employee and customer safety, and is continually monitoring evolving health guidelines and responding to changes as appropriate. The COVID-19 pandemic had a negative impact on the Company’s operations in 2020 and is expected to continue to affect its business activities in 2021. These impacts include lost productivity from governmental permitting approval delays, reduced crew productivity due to social distancing, other mitigation measures and other factors, the health and availability of work crews or other key personnel, including subcontractors or supply chain disruptions, and/or delayed project start dates or project shutdowns or cancellations that may be mandated or requested by governmental authorities or others, all of which could result in lower revenue or higher operating costs and/or create lower levels of overhead cost absorption.
Several relief measures have been enacted in response to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) and the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act (the “Coronavirus Relief Act”).  The CARES Act permitted deferral and/or reduction of certain federal and payroll tax amounts, certain of which the Company pursued, including the deferral of approximately $59 million of payroll taxes, half of which are reasonable when considered in conjunctiondue by December 31, 2021, with the remainder due by December 31, 2022. The Company will continue to monitor and evaluate the potential effects, usefulness of, and qualification for, additional COVID-19 relief measures on the Company’s consolidated financial position, and results of operations and cash flows.
Notwithstanding moderation of the COVID-19 pandemic and easing of governmental and other restrictions, the Company may continue to experience negative effects on its business and operations from possible longer-term changes in consumer and customer behavior, and/or from continuing negative economic conditions. The Company believes that it has taken appropriate steps to mitigate the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on its business; however, the potential effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are uncertain, as a whole, actualthey depend upon numerous evolving factors that management may not be able to accurately predict. The availability of effective treatments and vaccines, the speed with which they can be administered to the public, the degree to which the public is willing to be vaccinated and the degree that vaccines are effective in preventing infection or illness from existing or new strains of COVID-19, along with the length and extent of any continuing economic and market disruptions are unknown, and, therefore, any future impacts on our business, financial condition and/or results could differ materially from those estimates.of operations cannot be quantified or predicted with specificity.
Significant Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from contracts with customers under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 (“Topic 606”). Under Topic 606, revenue is recognized when, or as, control of promised goods and services is transferred to customers, and the amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for the goods and services transferred. Revenue is primarily


recognized by the Company over time utilizing the cost-to-cost measure of progress, which best depicts the continuous transfer of control of goods or services to the customer, and correspondingly, when performance obligations are satisfied for the related contracts.
Contracts. The Company derives revenue primarily from construction projects performed under: (i) master and other service agreements, which provide a menu of available services in a specific geographic territory that are utilized on an as-needed basis, and are typically priced using either a time and materials or a fixed price per unit basis; and (ii) contracts for specific projects requiring the construction and installation of an entire infrastructure system, or specified units within an infrastructure system, which are subject to multiple pricing options, including fixed price, unit price, time and materials, or cost plus a markup. Revenue derived from projects performed under master service and other service agreements totaled 42%28% and 41%42% of consolidated revenue for the three month periods ended March 31, 20202021 and 2019,2020, respectively.
For certain master service and other service agreements under which the Company performs installation and maintenance services, primarily for install-to-the-home service providers in its Communications segment, revenue is recognized at a point in time. This is generally when the work order has been fulfilled, which is typically the same day the work is initiated. Point in time revenue accounted for approximately 5% and 6% of consolidated revenue for both the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, and 2019.respectively. Substantially all of the Company’s other revenue is recognized over time.
The total contract transaction price and cost estimation processes used for recognizing revenue over time under the cost-to-cost method is based on the professional knowledge and experience of the Company’s project managers, engineers and financial professionals. Management reviews estimates of total contract transaction price and total project costs on an ongoing basis. Changes in job performance, job conditions and management’s assessment of expected variable consideration are factors that influence estimates of the total contract transaction price, total costs to complete those contracts and the Company’s profit recognition. Changes in these factors could result in revisions to revenue in the period in which the revisions are determined, which could materially affect the Company’s consolidated results of operations for that period. Provisions for losses on
9


uncompleted contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses are determined. For both the three month periods ended March 31, 20202021 and 2019,2020, project profit was affected by less than 5% as a result of changes in contract estimates included in projects that were in process as of December 31, 20192020 and 2018.2019. Revenue recognized for the three month periods ended March 31, 20202021 and 20192020 as a result of changes in total contract transaction price estimates, including from variable consideration, from performance obligations satisfied or partially satisfied in prior periods, totaled approximately $17.8$13.8 million and $12.5$17.8 million, respectively.
The Company may incur certain costs that can be capitalized, such as initial set-up or mobilization costs. Such costs, which are amortized over the life of the respective projects, were not material in either$3.7 million and $5.5 million as of the three month periods ended March 31, 2020 or 2019.2021 and December 31, 2020.
Performance Obligations. A performance obligation is a contractual promise to transfer a distinct good or service to a customer, and is the unit of account under Topic 606. The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when or as the performance obligation is satisfied. The vast majority of the Company’s performance obligations are completed within one year.
Remaining performance obligations represent the amount of unearned transaction prices under contracts for which work is wholly or partially unperformed, including the Company’s share of unearned transaction prices from its proportionately consolidated non-controlled joint ventures. As of March 31, 2020,2021, the amount of the Company’s remaining performance obligations was $5.7$5.0 billion. Based on current expectations, the Company expects to recognize approximately $4.5$4.0 billion of its remaining performance obligations as revenue during 2020,2021, with the remaindermajority of the remaining balance to be recognized primarily in 2021.2022.
Variable Consideration. Transaction prices for the Company’s contracts may include variable consideration, which comprises items such as change orders, claims and incentives. Management estimates variable consideration for a performance obligation utilizing estimation methods that it believes best predict the amount of consideration to which the Company will be entitled. Management’s estimates of variable consideration and the determination of whether to include estimated amounts in transaction prices are based largely on engineering studies and legal opinions, past practices with the customer, specific discussions, correspondence or preliminary negotiations with the customer and all other relevant information that is reasonably available at the time of the estimate. To the extent unapproved change orders, claims and other variable consideration reflected in transaction prices are not resolved in the Company’s favor, or to the extent incentives reflected in transaction prices are not earned, there could be reductions in, or reversals of, previously recognized revenue.
As of March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, the Company included approximately $35$59 million and $27$51 million, respectively, of change orders and/or claims in transaction prices for certain contracts that were in the process of being resolved in the ordinary course of business, including through negotiation, arbitration and other proceedings. These transaction price adjustments, when earned, are included within contract assets or accounts receivable, net of allowance, as appropriate. As of both March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, these change orders and/or claims were primarily related to certain projects inacross the Company’s Oil and Gas segment.segments. The Company actively engages with its customers to complete the final approval process, and generally expects these processes to be completed within one year. Amounts ultimately realized upon final agreement by customers could be higher or lower than such estimated amounts.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
See the recent accounting pronouncementsThe discussion below for information pertaining todescribes the effects of recently adopted and other recent accounting pronouncements, as updated from the discussion in the Company’s 20192020 Form 10-K.
Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in 20202021
In August 2018,December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40)ASU 2019-12, Customer’sIncome Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service ContractIncome Taxes (“ASU 2018-15”2019-12”), which eliminates certain exceptions to reduce diversitythe existing guidance for income taxes related to the approach for intra-period tax allocations, the methodology for calculating income taxes in practice inan interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. This ASU also simplifies the accounting for the costs of implementing cloud computing arrangements that are service contracts. ASU 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for internal-use software. Accounting for the service element of the cloud computing arrangement is not affectedincome taxes by the new guidance. Under ASU 2018-15, amortization expense, payments forclarifying and asset balancesamending existing guidance related to such capitalized implementation costs are to be presented within the same line itemseffects of enacted changes in tax laws or rates in the entity’s statementseffective tax rate computation, the recognition of operations, cash flowsfranchise tax and balance sheets, respectively,

ASU 2018-15,2019-12, which the Company adopted on a prospective basis during the first quarter of 2020,2021, did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”). ASU 2018-13, which is intended to improve the effectiveness of fair value measurement disclosures, modifies the disclosure requirements for certain estimates and assumptions used in determining the fair value of assets and liabilities. ASU 2018-13, which the Company adopted during the first quarter of 2020, did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. See Note 4 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments for certain disclosure updates pertaining to the Company’s Level 3 financial instruments as a result of the adoption of ASU 2018-13.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU, together with its related clarifying ASUs (collectively, “ASU 2016-13”), introduced an expected credit loss methodology for the measurement and recognition of credit losses on most financial assets, including financial assets arising from revenue transactions, such as accounts receivable and contract assets. The current expected credit loss methodology, which is based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts, replaced the probable/incurred loss model for measuring and recognizing expected credit losses. The Company adopted this ASU in the first quarter of 2020 and incorporated this guidance into its methodology for estimating its accounts receivable allowances. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as credit losses are not expected to be significant based on historical trends, the financial condition of our customers and external factors. Management actively monitors the economic environment, including any potential effects from the COVID-19 pandemic, on the Company’s customers and/or its financial assets. For additional information about the Company’s accounts receivable and related allowances, see Note 5 - Accounts Receivable, Net of Allowance, and Contract Assets and Liabilities.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Reform Rate (Topic 848):Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”) to provide temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the contract modifications, hedge relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. This ASU, which was effective upon issuance and may be applied through December 31, 2022, is applicable to all contracts and hedging relationships that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate or any other reference rate expected to be discontinued. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of reference rate reform and the potential application of this guidance.
Note 2 – Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings or loss per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to MasTec by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, which excludes non-participating unvested restricted share awards. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to MasTec by the weighted average number of fully diluted shares, as calculated under the treasury stock method, which includes the potential effect of dilutive common stock equivalents, such as issued but unvested restricted shares. If the Company reports a loss, rather than income, the computation of diluted loss per share excludes the effect of dilutive common stock equivalents, as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Quarterly Assessment for Indicators of Impairment. During the first quarter of 2021, in conjunction with the Company’s quarterly review for indicators of impairment, management performed a quantitative assessment of the goodwill associated with 1 reporting unit within the Oil and Gas segment. Based on the results of this assessment, management determined that the estimated fair value of the reporting unit substantially exceeded its carrying value. Significant changes in the assumptions or estimates used in management’s assessment, such as a reduction in profitability and/or cash flows, could result in non-cash impairment charges to goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, management reassessed the indefinite life classification of its two pre-qualification intangible assets. Management determined that, based on changes in the assets’ characteristics, including current and expected changes in the customer mix of the associated reporting units, a finite life classification for these assets was more appropriate. As a result, in the first quarter of 2020, the Company changed the classification of these pre-qualification intangible assets from indefinite-lived to finite-lived and began amortizing them on an accelerated basis. As of March 31, 2020, the estimated remaining weighted average useful life of these assets was approximately 12 years.

2020 Acquisitions. During the year ended December 31, 2020, MasTec completed 5 acquisitions. These acquisitions included the
11


equity interests of 2 entities. Through a consolidated subsidiary, the Company acquired all of the equity interests in a heavy civil infrastructure construction company that is included within the related entities. ForCompany’s Clean Energy and Infrastructure segment. As of the date of acquisition, the Company’s ownership interest in the consolidated subsidiary was 96%, and as of both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, was 91%, with the non-controlling interests owned by members of subsidiary management. The Company also acquired all of the equity interests in a utility service and telecommunications company specializingconstruction contractor that is included within the Company’s Communications segment. Additionally, the Company acquired the assets of 3 entities in 2020, 1 that specializes in wireless telecommunications solutions,and 1 that specializes in install-to-the-home services, both of which are included within the Company acquired 96% ofCompany’s Communications segment, and 1 that specializes in electrical transmission services that is included within the entity’s equity interests, with the obligation to acquire the balance over time.Company’s Electrical Transmission segment.
The aggregate purchase price for these entities as adjusted, was composed of approximately $175.123.5 million in cash, net of cash acquired, pluswith an additional $3.2 million due through 2023, subject to certain indemnification provisions, and earn-out liabilities and a mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interestwith 5-year terms valued at approximately $22.28.3 million and. $17.8 million, respectively. EThe Company refers to its traditional earn-out arrangements and the mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest collectively as “Earn-outs,” whicharn-outs are generally payable annually and are recorded within other current and other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Earn-outs for the 2019 acquisitions have terms ranging from 3 to 5 years. As of March 31, 2020,2021, the range of remaining potential undiscounted Earn-outearn-out liabilities for the 20192020 acquisitions was estimated to be between $2$1 million and $71$13 million; however, there is no maximum payment amount.

Note 4 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, cash collateral deposited with insurance carriers, life insurance assets, equity investments, certain other investments, deferred compensation plan assets and liabilities, accounts payable and other current liabilities, acquisition-related contingent consideration, mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests, convertible debentures and debt obligations.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or the amount paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value guidance establishes a valuation hierarchy, which requires maximizing the use of observable inputs when measuring fair value. The three levels of inputs that may be used are: (i) Level 1 - quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; (ii) Level 2 - observable market-based inputs or other observable inputs; and (iii) Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data, which are generally determined using valuation models incorporating management estimates of market participant assumptions.


Acquisition-Related Contingent Consideration and Other Liabilities
Acquisition-related contingent consideration and other liabilities is composed of Earn-outs,earn-outs, which represent the estimated fair value of future amounts payable for businesses, including for mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests (together, “Earn-outs”), that are contingent upon the acquired business achieving certain levels of earnings in the future. As of March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, the estimated fair value of the Company’s Earn-out liabilities totaled $176.0$134.8 million and $173.2$135.2 million, respectively, of which $52.9$47.9 million and $54.1$48.1 million, respectively, was included within other current liabilities. The fair values of the Company’s Earn-out liabilities are estimated using income approaches such as discounted cash flows or option pricing models, both of which incorporate significant inputs not observable in the market (Level 3 inputs), including management’s estimates and entity-specific assumptions, and are evaluated on an ongoing basis. Key assumptions include the discount rate, which, as of March 31, 2021, ranged from 12.0% to 24.7%20.0%, with a weighted average rate of 14.0%13.1% based on the relative fair value as of March 31, 2020,each instrument, and probability-weighted projections of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). Significant changes in any of these assumptions could result in significantly higher or lower potential Earn-out liabilities. The ultimate payment amounts for the Company’s Earn-out liabilities will be determined based on the actual results achieved by the acquired businesses. As of March 31, 2020,2021, the range of potential undiscounted Earn-out liabilities was estimated to be between $60$56 million and $256$174 million; however, there is no maximum payment amount.
Earn-out activity consists primarily of additions from new business combinations; changes in the expected fair value of future payment obligations; and payments. Measurement period adjustments for Earn-out liabilities, which are fair value adjustments relating to new information obtained about the facts and circumstances existing as of the date of acquisition for a period of up to one year, are recorded to goodwill. Other revisions to the expected fair values of the Company’s traditional earn-out liabilities are reflected as income or expense, as appropriate, and, for the mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest, are recorded as interest expense, net. Earn-out payments, to the extent they relate to estimated liabilities as of the date of acquisition, are reflected within financing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Payments in excess of acquisition date liabilities are classified within operating activities.
There were 0 Earn-out additions to acquisition-related contingent consideration and other liabilities from new business combinations in either of the three month periods ended March 31,

Note 10 – Other Retirement Plans
Multiemployer Plans. Certain of MasTec’s subsidiaries including certain subsidiaries in Canada, contribute amounts to multiemployer pension and other multiemployer benefit plans and trusts (“MEPPs”), which are recorded as a component of employee wages and salaries within costs of revenue, excluding depreciation and amortization.. Contributions are generally based on fixed amounts per hour per employee for employees covered under these plans. Multiemployer plan contribution rates are determined annually and assessed on a “pay-as-you-go” basis based on union employee payrolls. Union payrolls cannot be determined for future periods because the number of union employees employed at a given time, and the plans in which they participate, vary depending upon the location and number of ongoing projects and the need for union resources in connection with those projects. Total contributions to multiemployer plans and the related number of employees covered by these plans for the periods indicated were as follows:

Note 13 – Segments and Related Information
Segment Discussion
The Company manages its operations under 5 operating segments, which represent its 5 reportable segments: (1) Communications; (2) Clean Energy and Infrastructure; (3) Oil and Gas; (3)(4) Electrical Transmission; (4) Power Generation and IndustrialTransmission and (5) Other. This structure is generally focused on broad end-user markets for the Company’s labor-based construction services. All 5 reportable segments derive their revenue from the engineering, installation and maintenance of infrastructure, primarily in North America.
The Communications segment performs engineering, construction, maintenance and customer fulfillment activities related to communications infrastructure, primarily for wireless and wireline/fiber communications and install-to-the-home customers, and, to a lesser extent,as well as infrastructure for utilities, among others. The Clean Energy and Infrastructure segment primarily serves energy, utility and other end-markets through the installation and construction of power generation facilities, including from clean energy and renewable sources, such as wind, solar and biomass, as well as various types of heavy civil and industrial infrastructure. The Company performs engineering, construction and maintenance services for oil and natural gas pipelines and processing facilities for the energy and utilities industries through its Oil and Gas segment. The Electrical Transmission segment primarily serves the energy and utility industries through the engineering, construction and maintenance of electrical transmission lines and substations. The Power Generation and Industrial segment primarily serves energy, utility and other end-markets through the installation and construction of power facilities, including from renewable sources, related electrical transmission infrastructure, ethanol/biofuel facilities and various types of heavy civil and industrial infrastructure. The Other segment includes certain equity investees, the services of which vary from those provided by the Company’s primary segments, as well as other small business units that perform construction and other services for a variety of international end-markets.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) is the measure of profitability used by management to manage its segments and, accordingly, in its segment reporting. As appropriate, the Company supplements the reporting of its consolidated financial information determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP with certain non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA. The Company believes these non-U.S. GAAP measures provide meaningful information and help investors understand the Company’s financial results and assess its prospects for future performance. The Company uses EBITDA to evaluate its performance, both internally and as compared with its peers, because it excludes certain items that may not be indicative of the Company’s core operating results for its reportable segments, as well as items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry. Segment EBITDA is calculated in a manner consistent with consolidated EBITDA.
Summarized financial information for MasTec’s reportable segments is presented and reconciled to consolidated financial information for total MasTec in the following tables, including a reconciliation of consolidated income before income taxes to EBITDA, all of which are presented in millions. The tables below may contain slight summation differences due to rounding.

Note 14 – Commitments and Contingencies
MasTec is subject to a variety of legal cases, claims and other disputes that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of its business, including project contract price and acquisition purchase price disputes. MasTec cannot provide assurance that it will be successful in recovering all or


any of the potential damages it has claimed or in defending claims against the Company. The outcome of such cases, claims and disputes cannot be predicted with certainty and an unfavorable resolution of one or more of them could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
COVID-19 Pandemic
During March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a global pandemic related to the rapidly growing outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19). The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly affected economic conditions in the United States and internationally as national, state and local governments reacted to the public health crisis by requiring mitigation measures that have disrupted business activities for an uncertain period of time. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic could affect the Company’s future business activities and financial results, including from governmental permitting approval delays, reduced crew productivity, higher operating costs and lower levels of overhead cost absorption and/or delayed project start dates or project shutdowns that may be requested or mandated by governmental authorities or others.
The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s financial results for the three month period ended March 31, 2020 were limited. Most of the Company’s construction services are currently deemed essential under governmental mitigation orders and substantially all of its business segments continue to operate. Management’s top priority has been to take appropriate actions to protect the health and safety of its employees, customers and business partners, including adjusting its standard operating procedures to respond to evolving health guidelines. Management believes that it is taking appropriate steps to mitigate any potential impact to the Company; however, given the uncertainty regarding the potential effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, any future impacts cannot be quantified or predicted with specificity.
Other Commitments and Contingencies
Leases. In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into non-cancelable operating leases for certain of its facility, vehicle and equipment needs, including related party leases. See Note 8 - Lease Obligations and Note 15 - Related Party Transactions.
Letters of Credit. In the ordinary course of business, the Company is required to post letters of credit for its insurance carriers and surety bond providers and in support of performance under certain contracts as well as certain obligations associated with the Company’s equity investments and other strategic arrangements, including its variable interest entities. Such letters of credit are generally issued by a bank or similar financial institution. The letter of credit commits the issuer to pay specified amounts to the holder of the letter of credit under certain conditions. If this were to occur, the Company would be required to reimburse the issuer of the letter of credit, which, depending upon the circumstances, could result in a charge to earnings. As of March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, there were $161.2$153.2 million and $115.1$151.8 million, respectively, of letters of credit issued under the Company’s credit facilities. The Company is not aware of any material claims relating to its outstanding letters of credit as of March 31, 20202021 or December 31, 2019.2020.
Performance and Payment Bonds. In the ordinary course of business, MasTec is required by certain customers to provide performance and payment bonds for contractual commitments related to its projects. These bonds provide a guarantee to the customer that the Company will perform under the terms of a contract and that the Company will pay its subcontractors and vendors. If the Company fails to perform under a contract or to pay its subcontractors and vendors, the customer may demand that the surety make payments or provide services under the bond. The Company must reimburse the surety for expenses or outlays it incurs. As of March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, outstanding performance and payment bonds approximated $577.5$1,739.7 million and $551.4$764.8 million, respectively, and estimated costs to complete projects secured by these bonds totaled $162.8$773.7 million and $194.7$263.2 million as of March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively. Included in these balances as of March 31, 2021 are $115.0 million of outstanding performance and payment bonds issued on behalf of the Company’s proportionately consolidated non-controlled contractual joint ventures, representing the Company’s proportionate share of the total bond obligation for the related projects.
Investment and Strategic Arrangements. The Company holds undivided interests, ranging from 85% to 90%, in multiple proportionately consolidated non-controlled contractual joint ventures that provide infrastructure construction services for electrical transmission projects, as well as undivided interests ranging from 30% to 50% in 3 civil construction projects. Income and/or losses incurred by these joint ventures are generally shared proportionally by the respective joint venture members, with the members of the joint ventures jointly and severally liable for all of the obligations of the joint venture. The respective joint venture agreements provide that each joint venture partner indemnify the other party for any liabilities incurred by such joint venture in excess of its ratable portion of such liabilities. Thus, it is possible that the Company could be required to pay or perform obligations in excess of its share if the other joint venture partners fail or refuse to pay or perform their respective share of the obligations. As of March 31, 2020,2021, the Company was not aware of circumstances that would reasonably lead to material future claims against it in connection with these arrangements. Included in the Company’s cash balances as of March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 20192020 are amounts held by entities that are proportionately consolidated totaling $9.1$7.6 million and $13.1$8.2 million, respectively. These amounts are available to support the operations of those entities, but are not available for the Company’s other operations. In addition, the Company provided $0.7 million of project-related financing to its contractual joint ventures for the three month period ended March 31, 2021.
The Company has other investment and strategic arrangements, under which it may incur costs or provide financing, performance, financial and/or other guarantees. See Note 4 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments regardingand Note 15 - Related Party Transactions for additional information pertaining to the Company’s other investment and strategic arrangements.

The Company is self-insured up to the amount of the deductible. The Company also maintains excess umbrella coverage. As of March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, MasTec’s estimated liability for unpaid claims and associated expenses, including incurred but not reported losses related to these policies, totaled $125.3$136.3 million and $123.4$129.6 million, respectively, of which $85.8$89.0 million and $87.3$86.1 million, respectively, were reflected within other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

Collective Bargaining Agreements and Multiemployer Plans. As discussed in Note 10 - Other Retirement Plans, certain of MasTec’s subsidiaries are party to various collective bargaining agreements with unions representing certain of their employees, which require the Company to


pay specified wages, provide certain benefits and contribute certain amounts to MEPPs. The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended by the Multiemployer Pension Plan Amendments Act of 1980 (collectively, “ERISA”), which governs U.S.-registered MEPPs, subjects employers to substantial liabilities in the event of an employer’s complete or partial withdrawal from, or upon termination of, such plans.
The Company currently contributes, and in the past, has contributed to, plans that are underfunded, and, therefore, could have potential liability associated with a voluntary or involuntary withdrawal from, or termination of, these plans. As of March 31, 2020,2021, the Company does not have plans to withdraw from, and is not aware of circumstances that would reasonably lead to material claims against it, in connection with the MEPPs in which it participates. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will not be assessed liabilities in the future, including in the form of a surcharge on future benefit contributions or increased contributions on underfunded plans. The amount the Company could be obligated to pay or contribute in the future cannot be estimated, as these amounts are based on future levels of work of the union employees covered by these plans, investment returns, which could be negatively affected by economic and market conditions, and the level of underfunding of such plans.
Indemnities. The Company generally indemnifies its customers for the services it provides under its contracts, as well as other specified liabilities, which may subject the Company to indemnity claims, liabilities and related litigation. As of March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, the Company was not aware of any material asserted or unasserted claims in connection with these indemnity obligations.
Other Guarantees. InFrom time to time in the ordinary course of its business, from time to time, MasTec guarantees the obligations of its subsidiaries, including obligations under certain contracts with customers, certain lease obligations, and in some states, obligations in connection with obtaining contractors’ licenses.

Much of the work performed by the Company is evaluated for defects shortly after the work is completed. Warranty claims have historically not been material. However, ifIf warranty claims occur, the Company could be required to repair or replace warrantied items, or, if customers elect to repair or replace the warrantied item using the services of another provider, the Company could be required to pay for the cost of the repair or replacement. Warranty claims have historically not been material.

ITEM 2.     MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is a discussion and analysis of our business, financial condition and results of operations as of and for the three month periods ended March 31, 20202021 and 2019.2020. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”), and the audited consolidated financial statements, accompanying notes and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) contained in our 20192020 Form 10-K. In this MD&A, “$” means U.S. dollars unless specified otherwise.
Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic
During Marchthe first quarter of 2020, a global pandemic was declared by the World Health Organization declared a global pandemic related to the rapidly growing outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19).COVID-19. The COVID-19 pandemic hasdisrupted business activities and significantly affected global economic conditions in the United States and internationally, accelerating during the first half of March2020 and continuing into April,2021 as federal, state and local governments reactedimposed restrictions and mitigation measures to address the public health crisis, with mitigation measures, creatingthe effects of which resulted in workforce, supply chain and production disruptions and created significant uncertainties in the U.S. economy.and global economies. While the adverse effects of these restrictions and mitigation measures partially subsided in the second half of 2020 and into 2021, the possibility of future restrictions remains in the event of a rise in the number of COVID-19 cases in the future. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic could affect our business, operations and financial results will depend upon numerous evolving factors that we may not be able to accurately predict.predict, including the availability of effective treatments and vaccines, the speed with which they can be administered to the public, the degree to which the public is willing to be vaccinated and the degree that vaccines are effective in preventing infection or illness from existing or new strains of COVID-19, along with the length and extent of any continuing economic and market disruptions.
The effectsAs a provider of the pandemic on our financial results for the three month period ended March 31, 2020 were limited. To date, most of our constructionessential services, are currently deemed essential under state and local pandemic mitigation orders and all of our business segments continued to operate throughout 2020 and into 2021, and where safe and possible, our customers generally directed us to maintain normal work schedules. Our business model has, thus far, proven resilient, and we continue to operate.adapt to the changing operational and economic environment that has resulted from the COVID-19 pandemic. Our top priority has been to take appropriate actions to protect the health and safety of our employees, customers and business partners. We have adjusted our standard operating procedures within our business operations to ensure continued employee and customer safety, and are continually monitoring evolving health guidelines and responding to changes as appropriate. These procedures includehave included implementation of specialized training programs, appropriate social distancing programsprocedures and required use of certain personal protective equipment for our crew operations, as well as appropriate sanitation measures for key equipment and facilities. We have alsorestricted non-essential business travel and incorporated work at homework-at-home programs where necessaryas appropriate for our administrative offices. For in-office operations, appropriate safety and social distancing measures have been incorporated. We have also developed human resource guidance to assist our employees. In certain locations where our operations experienced challenges as a result of the pandemic, we have actively collaborated with our customers to minimize potential service disruptions and operational impacts.
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic mayhad a negative impact on our operations in 2020, and is expected to continue to affect our future business activities for an indefinite period of time.in 2021. These impacts may include lost productivity from governmental permitting approval delays, reduced crew productivity due to social distancing, other mitigation measures and other factors, the health and availability of work crews or other factors, higher operating costs and lower levels of overhead cost absorption,key personnel, including subcontractors, supply chain disruptions, and/or delayed project start dates or project shutdowns or cancellations that may be requestedmandated or mandatedrequested by governmental authorities or others.others, all of which could result in lower revenue or higher operating costs and/or create lower levels of overhead cost absorption. We continue to actively monitor the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations and may take further actions, as necessary, that we determine to be in the best interests of our employees, customers, business partners and stakeholders, or as required by federal, state, or local authorities. Additionally, disruptions in economic activity as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic have had, and may continue to have, adverse effects across our end markets, particularly in the oil and gas sector. To the extent that future business activities are adversely affected by the pandemic, we intend to take appropriate actions designed to mitigate these impacts; however, there can be no assurance that we will be successfulany such impacts.
Several relief measures have been enacted in these efforts.
Additionally, potential disruptions in future economic activity as a resultresponse to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, mayincluding the CARES Act and the Coronavirus Relief Act.  We have adversedeferred approximately $59 million of payroll taxes under the CARES Act, half of which are due by December 31, 2021, with the remainder due by December 31, 2022. We will continue to monitor and evaluate the potential effects, acrossusefulness of, and qualification for, additional COVID-19 relief measures on our end markets, but given the uncertainty regarding the magnitudefinancial position, results of operations and durationcash flows.

Notwithstanding moderation of the pandemic’sCOVID-19 pandemic and easing of governmental and other restrictions, we may continue to experience negative effects on our business and operations from possible longer-term changes in consumer and customer behavior, and/or from continuing negative economic conditions. We believe that we have taken appropriate steps to mitigate the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business; however, the potential effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are unableuncertain, as they depend upon numerous evolving factors that we may not be able to accurately predict, with specificity or quantifyand therefore, any potential future impactimpacts on our business, financial condition and/or results of operations.operations cannot be quantified or predicted with specificity.
As of March 31, 2020,2021, we maintainmaintained a strong balance sheet, have strong relationships with our banking partners and havehad ample liquidity totaling approximately $946 million,$1.7 billion, comprising $874 million$1.2 billion of availability under our credit facilityCredit Facility and $72$512 million of cash. We believe that our financial position, strong cash flows and operational strengths will enable us to manage the current challenges and uncertainties resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Our business operations typically generate significant cash flow, affording us the flexibility to invest strategically in our efforts to maximize shareholder value through mergersacquisitions and acquisitions,other strategic arrangements, share repurchases and capital expenditures. We are carefully managing liquidity and are monitoring any potential effects from the pandemic on our financial results, cash flows and/or working capital, and intend to take appropriate actions in efforts to mitigate any impacts; however, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in these efforts.impacts.
Business Overview
We are a leading infrastructure construction company operating mainly throughout North America across a range of industries. Our primary activities include the engineering, building, installation, maintenance and upgrade of communications, energy, utility and other infrastructure, such as: wireless, wireline/fiber and customer fulfillment activities; petroleumpower generation, including from clean energy and natural gasrenewable sources; pipeline infrastructure; electrical utility transmission and distribution; power generation, including from renewable sources; heavy civil; and industrial infrastructure. Our customers are primarily in these industries. Including our predecessor companies, we have been in business for over 90 years. For the twelve month period ended March 31, 2020,2021, we had an average of approximately 20,00019,000 employees and 380450 locations. We offer our services primarily under the MasTec service mark. We have been consistently ranked among the top specialty contractors by Engineering News-Record for the past several years.


We provide our services to a diversified base of customers. We often provide services under master service and other service agreements, which are generally multi-year agreements. The remainder of our work is generated pursuant to contracts for specific projects or jobs that require the construction or installation of an entire infrastructure system or specified units within an infrastructure system.
We manage our operations under five operating segments, which represent our five reportable segments: (1) Communications; (2) Clean Energy and Infrastructure; (3) Oil and Gas; (3)(4) Electrical Transmission; (4) Power Generation and IndustrialTransmission and (5) Other. This structure is generally focused on broad end-user markets for our labor-based construction services. See Note 13 - Segments and Related Information and Note 14 - Commitments and Contingencies in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, which are incorporated by reference, for segment relatedresults and information and significant customer concentrations.
Backlog
Estimated backlog represents the amount of revenue we expect to realize over the next 18 months from future work on uncompleted construction contracts, including new contracts under which work has not begun, as well as revenue from change orders and renewal options. Our estimated backlog also includes amounts under master service and other service agreements and includes our proportionate share of estimated revenue from proportionately consolidated non-controlled contractual joint ventures. Estimated backlog for work under master service and other service agreements is determined based on historical trends, anticipated seasonal impacts, experience from similar projects and estimates of customer demand based on communications with our customers. Based on current expectations of our customers’ requirements, we expect to realize approximately 70%67% of our estimated March 31, 20202021 backlog in 2020.2021. The following table presents 18-month estimated backlog by reportable segment as of the dates indicated:

Approximately 40%As of March 31, 2021, 46% of our backlog as of March 31, 2020 is attributable to amounts under master service or other service agreements, pursuant to which our customers are not contractually committed to purchase a minimum amount of services. Most of these agreements can be canceled on short or no advance notice. Timing of revenue for construction and installation projects included in our backlog can be subject to change as a result of customer, delays or cancellations, regulatory or other delays or cancellations, including from the potential adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on economic activity, and/or other project-related factors. These changes could cause estimated revenue to be realized in periods later than originally expected, or not at all. We occasionally experience postponements, cancellations and reductions in expected future work from master service agreements and/or construction projects due to changes in our customers’ spending plans, market volatility, andchanges in governmental permitting, regulatory delays and/or other factors. There can be no assurance as to our customers’ requirements or if actual results will be consistent with the accuracy ofestimates included in our estimates.forecasts. As a result, our backlog as of any particular date is an uncertain indicator of future revenue and earnings.
Backlog is a common measurement used in our industry. Our methodology for determining backlog may not, however, be comparable to the methodologies used by others. Backlog differs from the amount of our remaining performance obligations, which are described in Note 1 -
24


Business, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, which is incorporated by reference. As of March 31, 2020,2021, total 18-month backlog differed from the amount of our remaining performance obligations due primarily to the inclusion of $3.4$3.2 billion of estimated future revenue under master service and other service agreements within our backlog estimates, as described above, and the exclusion of approximately $0.8$0.4 billion of remaining performance obligations and estimated future revenue under master service and other service agreements in excess of 18 months, which amount is not included in the backlog estimates above. Backlog expected to be realized in 20202021 differed from the amount of remaining performance obligations expected to be recognized for the same period due primarily to the inclusion of approximately $1.1$1.2 billion of estimated future revenue under master service and other service agreements that is included within the related backlog estimate.
Economic, Industry and Market Factors
In addition to the effects of the pandemic noted above, we closely monitor the effects of changes in economic and market conditions on our customers. GeneralChanges in general economic and market conditions can negatively affect demand for our customers’ products and services, which can affect our customers’ planned capital and maintenance budgets in certain end-markets. Market, regulatory and industry factors could affect demand for our services, or the cost to provide such services, including (i) changes to our customers’ capital spending plans, including any potential effects from public health issues, such as the recent COVID-19 pandemic; (ii) new or changing regulatory requirements, governmental policy changes, and customer or industry initiatives, including with respect to climate change, sustainability and related environmental concerns, and/or from changes in governmental permitting; (iii) economic, political or other market developments or uncertainty, including access to capital for customers in the industries we serve; (iii) new or changing regulatory requirements or other governmental policy changes or political developments or uncertainty; (iv) changes in technology, tax and other incentives; and (v) mergers and acquisitions among the customers we serve. FluctuationsChanges in demand for, and/or fluctuations in market prices for oil, gas and other fuel sources, and availability of transportation and transmission capacity can also affect demand for our services, in particular, on pipeline and powerenergy generation construction projects. These fluctuations, as well as the highly competitive nature of our industry, can result in lower levels of activity and profit on the services we provide. In the face of increased pricing pressure or other market developments, we strive to maintain our profit margins through productivity improvements, cost reduction programs and/or business streamlining efforts. While we actively monitor economic, industry and market factors that could affect our business, we cannot predict the effect that changes in such factors may have on our future results of operations, liquidity and cash flows, and we may be unable to fully mitigate, or benefit from, such changes.
Effect of Seasonality and Cyclical Nature of Business
Our revenue and results of operations can be subject to seasonal and other variations. These variations are influenced by weather, customer


spending patterns, bidding seasons, project schedules, public health matters, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, holidays and/or timing, in particular, for large non-recurring projects. Typically, our revenue is lowest at the beginning of the year and during the winter months because cold, snowy or wet conditions cause project delays. Revenue is generally higher during the summer and fall months due to increased demand for our services when favorable weather conditions exist in many of the regions in which we operate, but continued cold and wet weather can often affect second quarter productivity. In the fourth quarter, many projects tend to be completed by customers seeking to spend their capital budgets before the end of the year, which generally has a positive effect on our revenue. However, the holiday season and inclement weather can cause delays, which can reduce revenue and increase costs on affected projects. Any quarter may be positively or negatively affected by adverse or unusual weather patterns, including warm winter weather, excessive rainfall, flooding or natural catastrophes such as hurricanes or other severe weather, making it difficult to predict quarterly revenue and margin variations.
Additionally, our industry can be highly cyclical. Fluctuations in end-user demand within the industries we serve, or in the supply of services within those industries, can affect demand for our services. As a result, our business may be adversely affected by industry declines or by delays in new projects. Variations in project schedules or unanticipated changes in project schedules, in particular, in connection with large construction and installation projects, can create fluctuations in revenue, which may adversely affect us in a given quarter, even if not for the full year. In addition, revenue from master service and other service agreements, while generally predictable, can be subject to volatility. The financial condition of our customers and their access to capital; variations in project margins; regional, national and global economic, political and market conditions; regulatory or environmental influences; and acquisitions, dispositions or strategic investments/other arrangements can also materially affect quarterly results in a given period. Accordingly, our operating results in any particular period may not be indicative of the results that can be expected for any other period. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic could also result in greater seasonal and cyclical volatility than would otherwise exist under normal conditions.
Critical Accounting Estimates
This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, including the resultspotential effects of whichthe COVID-19 pandemic, climate change, and other relevant global and/or macroeconomic trends and events. These estimates form the basis offor making judgments about our operating results, including the results of construction contracts accounted for under the cost-to-cost method, and the carrying values of assets and liabilities, that are not readily apparent from other sources. Given that management estimates, by their nature, involve judgments regarding future uncertainties, actual results maycould differ materially from these estimates if conditions change or if certain key assumptions used in making these estimates ultimately prove to be inaccurate. Our accounting policies and critical accounting estimates are reviewed periodically by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. During the first quarter of 2020, we performed quantitative assessments of the goodwill associated with certain of our reporting units and of two indefinite-lived pre-qualification intangible assets in conjunction with our quarterly review for indicators of impairment. Based on the results of these assessments, we determined that the estimated fair value of one of the reporting units in our Oil and Gas segment, for which the related goodwill has a carrying value of approximately $14 million, exceeded its carrying value by approximately 10%, and that the fair value of a separate reporting unit, for which the related goodwill has a carrying value of approximately $15 million, exceeded its carrying value by approximately 10%. In addition, we reassessed the indefinite life classification of a pre-qualification intangible asset within our Oil and Gas operating segment and a pre-qualification intangible asset within our Electrical Transmission segment with a combined carrying value of $70 million, and determined that based on changes in the assets’ characteristics, including current and expected changes in the customer mix of the associated reporting units, a finite life classification for these assets was more appropriate. As a result, we changed the classification of these pre-qualification intangible assets from indefinite-lived to finite-lived, and began amortizing them on an accelerated basis, with an estimated remaining weighted average useful life of approximately 12 years as of March 31, 2020.
Significant changes in the assumptions or estimates used in management’s assessment, such as a reduction in profitability and/or cash flows, could result in non-cash goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment charges in the future.
We believe that our accounting estimates pertaining to: the recognition of revenue and project profit or loss, which we define as project revenue, less project costs of revenue, including project-related depreciation, in particular, on construction contracts accounted for under the cost-to-cost method, for which the recorded amounts require estimates of costs to complete and the amount and probability of variable consideration included in the contract transaction price; fair value estimates, including those related to acquisitions, valuations of goodwill, indefinite-lived
25


intangible assets and acquisition-related contingent consideration; equity investments; income taxes; self-insurance liabilities; and litigation and other contingencies, are the most critical in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements as they are important to the portrayal of our financial condition and require significant or complex judgment and estimates on the part of management. Actual results could, however, vary materially from these accounting estimates.

Results of Operations
Comparison of Quarterly Results
The following table, which may contain slight summation differences due to rounding, reflects our consolidated results of operations in dollar and percentage of revenue terms for the periods indicated (dollar amounts in millions). Our consolidated results of operations are not necessarily comparable from period to period due to the effect of recent acquisitions and certain other items, which are described in the comparison of results section below. In this discussion, “acquisition” results are defined as results from acquired businesses for the first twelve months following the dates of the respective acquisitions, with the balance of results for a particular item attributed to “organic” activity.

Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures
As appropriate, we supplement our reported U.S. GAAP financial information with certain non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, including earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted EBITDA (“Adjusted EBITDA”), adjusted net income (“Adjusted Net Income”) and adjusted diluted earnings per share (“Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share”). These “adjusted” non-U.S. GAAP measures exclude, as applicable to the particular periods, non-cash stock-based compensation expense; amortization of intangible assets;expense and, for Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share, amortization of intangible assets and the tax effects of the adjusted items, including non-cash stock-based compensation expense and the effects of changes in statutory tax rates. These definitions of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not the same as in our Credit Facility or in the indenture governing our senior notes; therefore, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as presented in this discussion should not be used for purposes of determining our compliance with the covenants contained in our debt instruments.
We use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, as well as Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share to evaluate our performance, both internally and as compared with our peers, because these measures exclude certain items that may not be indicative of our core operating results, as well as items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry. We believe that these adjusted measures provide a baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying business. Non-cash stock-based compensation expense can be subject to volatility from changes in the market price per share of our common stock or variations in the value and number of shares granted, and amortization of intangible assets is subject to acquisition activity, which varies from period to period. We exclude intangible asset amortization from our adjusted measures due to its non-operational nature and inherent volatility, as acquisition activity varies from period to period. We also believe this presentation is common practice in our industry and improves comparability of our results with those of our peers, although each company’s definitions of these adjusted measures provide a baseline for analyzing trendsmay vary as they are not standardized and should be used in our underlying business.light of the provided reconciliations.
We believe that these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures provide meaningful information and help investors understand our financial results and assess our prospects for future performance. Because non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-U.S. GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. These financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, as substitutes for, or alternative measures of, reported net income or diluted earnings per share, and should be viewed in conjunction with the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures and the provided reconciliations thereto. We believe these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, when viewed together with our U.S. GAAP results and related reconciliations, provide a more complete understanding of our business. We strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.
The following table presents a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in dollar and percentage of revenue terms, for the periods indicated. The tables below (dollar amounts in millions) may contain slight summation differences due to rounding.

For the three month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, our consolidated effective tax rates, as reported, were 1.2% and 21.8%, respectively, and as adjusted, were 6.4% and 25.9%, respectively.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations, availability under our Credit Facility and our cash balances. Our primary liquidity needs are for working capital, capital expenditures, insurance and performance collateral in the form of cash and letters of credit, earn-out obligations, equity investment funding requirements, debt service and income taxes. We also evaluate opportunities for strategic acquisitions, investments and investmentsother arrangements from time to time, and we may consider opportunities to borrow additional funds, which may include borrowings under our Credit Facility or debt issuances, or to refinance or retire outstanding debt, or repurchase additional shares of our outstanding common stock in the future under share repurchase authorizations, or to repurchase, refinance or retire outstanding debt, any of which may require our use of cash.
Capital Expenditures. For the three month period ended March 31, 2020,2021, we spent $61approximately $48 million on capital expenditures, or $52$42 million, net of asset disposals, and incurred approximately $27$51 million of equipment purchases under finance leases. We estimate that we will spend approximately $180$150 million on capital expenditures, or approximately $150$100 million, net of asset disposals, in 2020,2021, and expect to incur approximately $140$180 million to $160$200 million of equipment purchases under finance leases. Actual capital expenditures may increase or decrease in the future depending upon business activity levels, as well as ongoing assessments of equipment lease versus buy decisions based on short and long-term equipment requirements.
Acquisitions and Earn-OutEarn-out Liabilities. We typically utilize cash for business acquisitions and other strategic arrangements.arrangements, and for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, we used $89 million of cash for this purpose. In addition, in most of our acquisitions, we have agreed to make future payments to the sellers that are contingent upon the future earnings performance of the acquired businesses, which we also refer to as “earn-out”“Earn-out” payments. Earn-out payments may be paid in cash or, under specific circumstances, MasTec common stock, or a combination thereof, at our option. The estimated total value of future acquisition-related contingent consideration and otherEarn-out liabilities as of March 31, 20202021 was approximately $176$135 million. Of this amount, $60$56 million represents the liability for earned amounts. The remainder is management’s estimate of acquisition-related contingent consideration and otherEarn-out liabilities that are contingent upon future performance. For the three month periods ended March 31, 20202021 and 2019,2020, we made no earn-outEarn-out payments. In the second quarter of 2021, we completed the acquisition of INTREN, LLC (“INTREN”), a premier specialty utility contractor, for approximately $420 million in cash plus an Earn-out, which is contingent upon INTREN’s results for the year ended December 31, 2021. See Note 3 - Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, which is incorporated by reference.


Income Taxes. For the three month periodperiods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, tax payments, net of tax refunds, and tax refunds, net of tax payments, respectively, were de minimis, whereas for the three month period ended March 31, 2019, tax payments, net of tax refunds, totaled approximately $3 million.minimis. Our tax payments vary with changes in taxable income and earnings based on estimates of full year taxable income activity and estimated tax rates.
Working Capital. We need working capital to support seasonal variations in our business, primarily due to the effect of weather conditions on external construction and maintenance work and the spending patterns of our customers, both of which influence the timing of associated spending to support related customer demand. Working capital needs are generally higher during the summer and fall months due to increased demand for our services when favorable weather conditions exist in many of the regions in which we operate. Conversely, working capital needs are typically converted to cash during the winter months. These seasonal trends, however, can be offset by changes in the timing of projects, which can be affected by project delays or accelerations and/or other factors that may affect customer spending.
Working capital requirements also tend to increase when we commence multiple projects or particularly large projects because labor, including subcontractor costs, and certain other costs, including inventory, become payable before the receivables resulting from work performed are collected. The timing of billings and project close-outs can contribute to changes in unbilled revenue. As of March 31, 2020,2021, we expect that
30


substantially all of our unbilled receivables will be billed to customers in the normal course of business within the next twelve months. Total accounts receivable, which consists of contract billings, unbilled receivables and retainage, net of allowance, decreased towas generally flat at approximately $1.8 billion as of both March 31, 2020 from $1.9 billion as of2021 and December 31, 2019, due primarily to lower levels of quarterly revenue, offset, in part, by higher DSOs, as described further below.2020.
Our payment billing terms are generally net 30 days, and some of our contracts allow our customers to retain a portion of the contract amount (generally, from 5% to 10% of billings) until the job is completed. As part of our ongoing working capital management practices, we evaluate opportunities to improve our working capital cycle time through contractual provisions and certain financing arrangements. For certain customers, we maintain inventory to meet the materials requirements of the contracts. Occasionally, certain of our customers pay us in advance for a portion of the materials we purchase for their projects or allow us to pre-bill them for materials purchases up to specified amounts. Vendor terms are generally 30 days. Our agreements with subcontractors often contain a “pay-if-paid” provision, whereby our payments to subcontractors are made only after we are paid by our customers.
Summary of Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Including our current assessment of the potential effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our results of operations and capital resource requirements, we anticipate that funds generated from operations, borrowings under our Credit Facility and our cash balances will be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements, anticipated capital expenditures, debt service obligations, insurance and performance collateral requirements, letter of credit needs, earn-out obligations, required income tax payments, acquisition, strategic arrangement and other investment funding requirements, share repurchase activity and other liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months.
Sources and Uses of Cash
As of March 31, 2020,2021, we had approximately $820$918 million in working capital, defined as current assets less current liabilities, as compared with $954$944 million as of December 31, 2019, a decrease of approximately $135 million.2020. Cash and cash equivalents totaled approximately $72$512 million and $71$423 million as of March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively.
Sources and uses of cash are summarized below (in millions):

Operating Activities. Cash flow from operations is primarily influenced by changes in the timing of demand for our services and operating margins, but iscan also be affected by working capital needs associated with the various types of services we provide. Working capital is affected by changes in total accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable and payroll tax payments, including the effect of deferrals from COVID-19 relief provisions, accrued expenses and deferred revenue,contract liabilities, all of which tend to be related. These working capital items are affected by changes in revenue resulting from the timing and volume of work performed, variability in the timing of customer billings and collections of receivables, as well as settlement of payables and other obligations. Net cash provided by operating activities for the three month period ended March 31, 20202021 was $203$257 million, as compared with $47approximately $203 million of net cash used in operating activities for the same period in 2019,2020, for an increase in cash provided by operating activities of approximately $250$54 million. The increase in cash flow from operating activities was primarily due to an increase in net income, coupled with increases in certain non-cash adjustments to reconcile net income to operating cash flows, including depreciation expense. These increases were offset, in part, by the effect of working capital-related changes in assets and liabilities, net.
Our days sales outstanding, net of deferred revenuecontract liabilities (“DSO”) was 10480 as of March 31, 20202021 and 9186 as of December 31, 2019. The increase in DSO for the three month period ended March 31, 2020 was primarily due to timing of project activity and mix, as well as delays in ordinary course quarter-end collections as a result of administrative and operational disruptions to our customers resulting from voluntary and government-mandated responses to the COVID-19 pandemic.2020. DSO is calculated as total accounts receivable, net of allowance, less deferred revenue,contract liabilities, divided by average daily revenue for the most recently completed quarter as of the balance sheet date. Our DSOs can fluctuate from period to period due to timing of billings, billing terms, collections and settlements, timing of project close-outs and retainage collections, changes in project and customer mix and the effect of working capital initiatives. The decrease in our DSOs for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 was due to timing of ordinary course billing and collection activities. Other than matters subject to litigation, we do not anticipate material collection issues related to our outstanding accounts receivable balances, nor do we believe that we have material amounts due from customers experiencing financial difficulties. Based on current expectations,information, we expect to collect substantially all of our outstanding accounts receivable balances within the next twelve months.
Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities decreasedincreased by $52approximately $76 million to $135 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 from $59 million for the three month period ended March 31,


2020 from $111 2020. Cash paid for acquisitions, net, increased by approximately $89 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2019. Cash paid for acquisitions, net, decreased by approximately $94 million.2021 as compared with the same period in 2020. For the three month period ended March 31, 2020,2021, we spent $61$48 million on capital expenditures, or $52$42 million, net of asset disposals, as compared with $34$61 million, or $26$52 million, net of asset disposals, for the same period in the prior year,2020, for an increasea decrease in cash used in investing activities of $26approximately $10 million. For the three month period ended March 31, 2020, paymentsPayments for other investments, totaled $12 million andwhich related primarily to equity investments in certain telecommunications entities, whereasdecreased from $12 million to $4 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2019, payments for other investments totaled $2 million, for an increase of $10 million2021 as compared with the same period in cash used in investing activities. For the three month period ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, proceeds from other investments and other investing activities totaled $5 million and $10 million, respectively.2020.
Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities for the three month period ended March 31, 20202021 was $145$33 million, as compared with net cash provided by financing activities of $174$145 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2019,2020, for an increasea decrease in cash used in financing activities of $319$112 million. The decrease in cash used in financing activities was driven primarily by share repurchases, which totaled $119 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2020. Credit facility and other borrowing-related activity, net, for the three month period ended March 31, 2020,2021 totaled $4$9 million of borrowings, net of repayments, as compared with $196$4 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2019,2020, for a decreasean increase in cash provided by financing activities

Senior Secured Credit Facility
We have a senior secured credit facility which was amended and restated in September 2019 (the “Credit Facility”). maturing on September 19, 2024. Aggregate borrowing commitments under the Credit Facility total $1.75 billion, composed of $1.35 billion of revolving commitments and a term loan totaling $400 million in original principal amount.amount, of which $395 million was outstanding as of March 31, 2021. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are used for working capital requirements, capital expenditures and other corporate purposes, including share repurchases, equity investments, potential acquisitions or other strategic arrangements, equity investments, share repurchases and the repurchase or prepayment of indebtedness.
We are dependent upon borrowings and letters of credit under the Credit Facility to fund our operations. Should we be unable to comply with the terms and conditions of theour Credit Facility, we would be required to obtain modifications to the Credit Facility or obtain an alternative source of financing to continue to operate, neither of which may be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. The Credit Facility is subject to certain provisions and covenants, as more fully described in Note 7 - Debt in the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements included in our 20192020 Form 10-K.

Also, see Note 16 - Supplemental Guarantor Condensed Consolidating Financial Information in the notes to the consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q, which is incorporated by reference.
Debt Covenants
We were in compliance with the provisions and covenants contained in our outstanding debt instruments as of March 31, 2020.2021.
Additional Information
For detailed discussion and additional information pertaining to our debt instruments, see Note 7 - Debt in the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements included in our 20192020 Form 10-K. Also see Note 7 - Debt in the notes to the consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q for current period balances and discussion, which is incorporated by reference.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As is common in our industry, we have entered into certain off-balance sheet arrangements in the ordinary course of business. Our significant off-balance sheet transactions include liabilities associated with non-cancelable operating leases with durations of less than twelve months, letter of credit obligations, surety and performance and payment bonds entered into in the normal course of business, self-insurance liabilities, liabilities associated with multiemployer pension plans, liabilities associated with certain indemnification and guarantee arrangements and obligations relating to our equity and other investment arrangements, including our variable interest entities. Refer to Note 14 - Commitments and Contingencies, Note 4 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Note 15 - Related Party Transactions in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, which are incorporated by reference.
Impact of Inflation
The primary inflationary factors affecting our operations are labor and fuel costs, and to a lesser extent, material costs. In times of low unemployment, our labor costs may increase due to shortages in the supply of skilled labor. Additionally, the prices of oil and gas are subject to unexpected fluctuations due to events outside of our control, including geopolitical events, the effects of climate change and fluctuations in global supply and demand.demand, which have recently caused volatility in the oil and gas markets. We closely monitor inflationary factors and any impact they may have on our business operations, operating results or financial condition.
ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk
As of March 31, 2020,2021, our variable interest rate debt was primarily related to our Credit Facility. Interest on outstanding revolving loans and our term loan under our Credit Facility accrues at variable rates based, at our option, on a Eurocurrency rate, as defined in the Credit Facility, plus a margin, or a base rate, as defined in the Credit Facility, plus a margin. As of March 31, 2020,2021, we had $333$45 million aggregate principal amount of


outstanding revolving loans under our Credit Facility with a weighted average interest rate of 2.47%1.77% and a term loan with a balance of $400$395 million with an interest rate of 2.24%1.36%. A 100 basis point increase in the applicable interest rates under our credit facilities would have increased our interest expense by approximately $2$1 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2020.2021.
As of March 31, 2020,2021, our fixed interest rate debt primarily included $400$600 million aggregate principal amount of 4.875%4.50% Senior Notes and $298$303 million of finance lease obligations, which accrued interest at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 4.1%3.7%. None of this debt subjects us to interest rate risk, but we may be subject to changes in interest rates if and when we refinance this debt at maturity or otherwise.
Foreign Currency Risk
Certain of our consolidated revenue and operating expenses are in foreign currencies. Our foreign operations are primarily in Canada. Revenue generated from foreign operations represented 3% of our total revenue for the three month period ended March 31, 2020.2021. Revenue and expense related to our foreign operations are, for the most part, denominated in the functional currency of the foreign operation, which minimizes the impact that fluctuations in exchange rates would have on net income or loss. We are, however, subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange
32


rates when transactions are denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies.currencies and for our foreign operations with a functional currency other than the local currency. Such transactions wereactivity was not material to our operations for the three month periodperiods ended March 31, 2020.2021. Translation gains or losses, which are recorded in other comprehensive income or loss, result from translation of the assets and liabilities of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars.
Our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could increase in the future if we continue to expand our operations outside of the United States. We seek to manage foreign currency exposure by minimizing our consolidated net asset and liability positions in currencies other than the functional currency, which exposure was not significant to our consolidated financial position as of March 31, 2020.2021. We may enter into foreign currency derivative contracts in the future to manage such exposure.
Other Market Risk
As discussed in Note 4 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, which is incorporated by reference, we have certain investments that may be subject to market risk and could be subject to volatility based on market conditions.
ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
ITEM 4.         CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on management’s evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of March 31, 2020.2021.
Changes in Internal Control overOver Financial Reporting
Although the adoption of ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments had no significant effect on our results of operations, cash flows or financial position, certain updates to our internal controls were implemented in connection with its adoption. We have not experienced any material impact to our internal controls over financial reporting due to the COVID-19 pandemic. There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 20202021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Refer to Note 14 - Commitments and Contingencies in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated by reference in this Item 1, for a discussion of any recent material developments related to our legal proceedings since the filing of our 20192020 Form 10-K.
ITEM 1A.    RISK FACTORS
Except as set forth below,Subject to the potential effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on certain of the risks we normally face in operating our business, including those disclosed in our 2020 Form 10-K, there have been no material changes to either the cautionary statement regarding forward-looking statements or to any of the risk factors disclosed in our 20192020 Form 10-K, as updated by our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other filings we make with the SEC.
Our business and operations, and the operations of our customers, may be adversely affected by epidemics or pandemics such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
We may face risks related to health epidemics and pandemics or other outbreaks of communicable diseases. The global spread of COVID-19 has created significant volatility, uncertainty and economic disruption, including significant volatility in the U.S. economy and financial markets. The


extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic could affect our business, operations, financial results and the trading price of our common stock will depend on numerous evolving factors that we may not be able to accurately predict, including the duration and scope of the pandemic, governmental and business actions that have been and continue to be taken in response to the pandemic, including mitigation efforts such as stay at home and other social distancing orders, as well as the impact of the pandemic on the U.S. economy, economic activity and actions taken in response, including from stimulus efforts such as the Families First Coronavirus Act and the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act.
A public health epidemic or pandemic, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, poses the risk that we or our employees, customers and/or business partners may be prevented from conducting ordinary course business activities for an indefinite period of time, including due to shutdowns that may be requested or mandated by governmental authorities or others, or that the pandemic may otherwise interrupt or affect business activities. The effects of the pandemic on our business, operations and financial results for the first quarter of 2020 were limited. We have adjusted standard operating procedures within our business operations to ensure continued employee and customer safety and are continually monitoring evolving health guidelines as well as market conditions and responding to changes as appropriate. We cannot be certain, however, that these efforts will prevent further disruption due to effects of the pandemic on business and market conditions. In addition, in light of the federal and state mandates implemented to control the spread of COVID-19, we have taken steps that allow administrative personnel to work remotely. Many of these measures are being deployed for the first time and, despite our implementation of security measures, there is no guarantee that the data security and privacy safeguards we have put in place will be completely effective or that we will not encounter some of the common risks associated with employees accessing Company data and systems remotely.
If overall global economic conditions weaken as a result of efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19, this may result in a reduction in demand across our end markets, including in the oil and gas sector, which has recently experienced a significant decline in demand and volatility in oil prices. Unfavorable market conditions, market uncertainty and/or economic downturns could have a negative effect on demand for our customers’ services and/or the profitability of services. Our customers may not have the ability to fund capital expenditures for infrastructure, or may have difficulty obtaining financing for planned projects, which could reduce their capital spending and/or result in reduced demand for our services and/or delays or cancellations of current or planned future projects. We could also incur incremental costs to operate in the current environment or experience lower levels of overhead absorption from a reduction in revenue, both of which could negatively affect our margins and profitability. Additionally, the economic and market disruptions resulting from COVID-19 could also lead to greater than normal uncertainty with respect to the realization of estimated amounts, including our backlog estimates and our provisions for credit losses. Additionally, our customers could seek to delay payments to us as a result of the pandemic’s financial effects on them. The ultimate extent, duration and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is uncertain, the effects of which could be significant, and we cannot predict or quantify with any certainty the extent to which it could adversely affect our future financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, cash flows or the market price of our common stock.
