NOTE 1. BUSINESS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION, AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Overview
The terms “we,” “us,” and “our” used in this quarterly report refer to URS Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries unless otherwise indicated. We operate through two divisions: the URS Division and the EG&G Division. We offer a comprehensive range of professional planning and design, systems engineering and technical assistance, program and construction management, and operations and maintenance services for transportation, facilities, environmental, homeland security, defense systems, installations and logistics, commercial/industrial, and water/wastewater treatment projects. Headquartered in San Francisco, we operate in more than 20 countries with approximately 28,000 employees providing services to federal, state, and local governments, and private industry clients in the United States and abroad.
Effective January 1, 2005, we adopted a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Friday closest to December 31st, with interim quarters ending on the Fridays closest to March 31st, June 30th and September 30th. We filed a transition report on Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the two months ended December 31, 2004. Our 2005 fiscal year began on January 1, 2005 and will end on December 30, 2005.
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These financial statements include the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of our wholly-owned subsidiaries and joint ventures required to be consolidated under Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN 46-R”). We participate in joint ventures formed for the purpose of bidding, negotiating and executing projects. Sometimes we function as the sponsor or manager of the projects performed by the joint venture. Investments in unconsolidated joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
You should read our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in our amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2004. The results of operations for the six months ended July 1, 2005 are not indicative of the operating results for the full year or for future years.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair statement of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented.
The preparation of our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP necessarily requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and the reported amounts of revenues and costs during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, we review our estimates based on information that is currently available. Changes in facts and circumstances may cause us to revise our estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents/Book Overdraft
At July 1, 2005 and December 31, 2004, we had book overdrafts for some of our disbursement accounts. These overdrafts represented transactions that had not cleared the bank accounts at the end of the reporting period. We transferred cash on an as-needed basis to fund these items as they cleared the bank in subsequent periods. At July 1, 2005 and December 31, 2004, cash and cash equivalents included $30.0 million and $13.5 million held by our consolidated joint ventures.
Income Per Common Share
Basic income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period, excluding unvested restricted stock. Diluted income per common share is computed giving effect to all potentially dilutive shares of common stock that were outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive shares of common stock consist of the incremental shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options, vesting of the restricted stock, or upon conversion of our 61/2% Convertible Subordinated Debentures (“61/2% debentures”). Diluted income per share is computed by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted-average common shares and potentially dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the period.
A reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of basic and diluted income per common share is provided as follows:

Our 61/2% debentures are due in 2012 and are convertible into shares of our common stock at the rate of $206.30 per share. The effect of the assumed conversion of the 61/2% debentures was not included in our computation of diluted income per share because it would be anti-dilutive.
We did not include three thousand and fifty-three thousand of potential shares associated with outstanding stock options in our computation of diluted income per share for the three months ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004, respectively, because the exercise prices of the options were greater than the average per share market value of our common stock. In our computation of diluted income per share for the

URS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – UNAUDITED (Continued)
six months ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004, we did not include twenty-three thousand and fifty-two thousand of potential shares associated with outstanding stock options respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation
We award stock options to our employees under our 1991 Stock Incentive Plan and 1999 Equity Incentive Plan (collectively, the “Stock Option Plans”). These stock options are awarded with exercise prices that are equal to the market price of our common stock on the date of the grant. We also grant restricted stock, which are shares of common stock that are issued at no cost to key employees. In addition, we have an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) under which eligible employees may authorize payroll deductions of up to ten percent of their compensation, subject to Internal Revenue Code limitations, to purchase common stock at a price of 85% of the lower of the fair market value as of the beginning or the end of the six-month offering period.
As permitted under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”), we continue to apply Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”) and related accounting interpretations for stock-based compensation. Under APB 25, the compensation expense associated with employee stock awards is measured as the difference, if any, between the price to be paid by an employee and the fair value of the common stock on the grant date. Accordingly, we recognize no compensation expense with respect to stock-based option awards. Stock purchased through the ESPP as currently structured qualifies under a specific exception under APB 25, and as result, we do not recognize any compensation expense with respect to such purchases either. Compensation expense is recognized for modifications of stock-based option awards in accordance with APB 25. In addition, we record compensation expense related to restricted stock over the applicable vesting period and such compensation expense is measured at the fair market value of the restricted stock at the date of grant.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure” (“SFAS 148”), requires prominent disclosure of pro forma results in both annual and interim financial statements as if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123. We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to measure the estimated fair value of stock options and the ESPP. The following assumptions were used to estimate stock option and ESPP compensation expense using the fair value method of accounting:

Adopted and Recently Issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (Revised), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”). SFAS 123(R) replaces SFAS 123 and supersedes APB 25. In April 2005, the SEC adopted Rule 4-01(a) of Regulation S-X, which defers the required effective date of SFAS 123(R) to the first fiscal year beginning after June 15, 2005, instead of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2005 as originally required. SFAS 123(R) will become effective for us on December 31, 2005 (the “Effective Date”), but early adoption is allowed. SFAS 123(R) requires that the costs resulting from all stock-based compensation transactions be recognized in the financial statements. SFAS 123(R) applies to all stock-based compensation awards granted, modified or settled in interim or fiscal periods after the required Effective Date, but does not apply to awards

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – UNAUDITED (Continued)
granted in periods before the required Effective Date, unless they are modified, repurchased or cancelled after the Effective Date. SFAS 123(R) also amends Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows,”to require that excess tax benefits from the exercises of stock-based compensation awards be reported as a financing cash inflow rather than as an operating cash inflow.
In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”) to provide implementation guidance on SFAS 123(R). SAB 107 was issued to assist registrants in implementing SFAS 123(R) while enhancing the information that investors receive.
Upon adoption of SFAS 123(R), we will be required to record an expense for our stock-based compensation plans using a fair value method. We are currently evaluating which transition method we will use upon adoption of SFAS 123(R) and the potential impacts it will have on our compensation plans. SFAS 123(R) will impact our financial statements as we historically have recorded our stock-based compensation in accordance with APB 25, which does not require the recording of an expense for our stock-based compensation plans for options granted at a price equal to the fair market value of the shares on the grant date and for the fair value of the shares purchased through the ESPP.
In November 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 151, “Inventory Costs, and Amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 43 (“ARB No. 43”), Chapter 4” (“SFAS 151”). SFAS 151 amends the guidance in ARB No. 43 Chapter 4, “Inventory Pricing,” by clarifying that abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage) be recognized as current period charges. The provisions of SFAS 151 are effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS 151 will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
In May 2005, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” (“SFAS 154”), which replaces Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 20, “Accounting Changes,” and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements.” SFAS 154 requires retroactive application of a change in accounting principle to prior period financial statements unless it is impracticable. SFAS 154 also requires that a change in method of depreciation, amortization, or depletion for long-lived, non-financial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate resulting from a change in accounting principle. It is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Depending on the type of accounting change, the adoption of SFAS 154 may have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Reclassifications
We have made reclassifications to our fiscal year 2004 financial statements to conform them to the fiscal year 2005 presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on consolidated net income, stockholder’s equity, and net cash flows.

These retirement plans cover a selected group of Radian employees and former employees who will continue to be eligible to participate in the retirement plans.

NOTE 4. CURRENT AND LONG-TERM DEBT
Credit Facilities
New Credit Facility
On June 28, 2005, we entered into a new senior credit facility (“New Credit Facility”) consisting of a 6-year Term Loan of $350.0 million and a 5-year Revolving Line of Credit of $300.0 million, against which up to $200.0 million can be used to issue letters of credit. As of July 1, 2005, we had $340.0 million outstanding under the Term Loan, $59.3 million in letters of credit, and no amount outstanding under the Revolving Line of Credit.
Our Revolving Line of Credit is used to fund daily operating cash needs and to support our standby letters of credit. During the ordinary course of business, the use of our Revolving Line of Credit is driven by collection and disbursement activities. Our daily cash needs generally follow a predictable pattern that parallels our payroll cycles, which drive, as necessary, our short term borrowing requirements.
Principal amounts under the Term Loan will become due and payable on a quarterly basis: 15% of the principal will be payable in four equal quarterly payments beginning in the third quarter of 2008, 20% of the principal will be due during the next four quarters, and 65% will be due in the final four quarters ending on June 28, 2011. Our Revolving Line of Credit expires and is payable in full on June 28, 2010. At our option, we may repay the loans under our New Credit Facility without premium or penalty.
All loans outstanding under our New Credit Facility bear interest at either LIBOR or the bank’s base rate plus an applicable margin, at our option. The applicable margin will change based upon our credit rating as reported by Moody’s Investor Services (“Moody’s”) and Standard & Poor’s. The LIBOR margin will range from 0.625% to 1.75% and the base rate margin will range from 0.0% to 0.75%. As of July 1, 2005, the LIBOR margin was 1.25% for both the Term Loan and Revolving Line of Credit. As of July 1, 2005, the interest rate on our Term Loan was 4.74%.
A substantial number of our domestic subsidiaries are guarantors of the New Credit Facility on a joint and several basis. Initially, the obligations are collateralized by our guarantors’ capital stock. The collateralized obligations will be eliminated if we reach an investment grade credit rating of “Baa3” from Moody’s and “BBB-” from Standard & Poor’s. If our credit rating were to fall to or below, “Ba2” from Moody’s or “BB” from Standard & Poor’s, we must provide a secured interest in substantially all of our existing and subsequently acquired personal and real property, in addition to the collateralized guarantors’ capital stock. Although the capital stock of the non-guarantor subsidiaries are not required to be pledged as collateral, the terms of the New Credit Facility restrict the non-guarantors’ assets, with some exceptions, from being used as a pledge for future liens (a “negative pledge”). Moody’s upgraded our credit rating from
12
URS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – UNAUDITED (Continued)
“Ba2” to “Ba1” on June 20, 2005. On July 26, 2005, Standard & Poor’s upgraded our credit rating from “BB” to “BB+.”
Our New Credit Facility contains financial covenants. We are required to maintain: (a) a maximum ratio of total funded debt to total capital of 40% or less and (b) a minimum interest coverage ratio of not less than 3.0:1. The interest coverage ratio is calculated by dividing consolidated Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”), as defined in our New Credit Facility agreement, by consolidated cash interest expense.
The New Credit Facility also contains customary events of default and customary affirmative and negative covenants including, but not limited to, limitations on mergers, consolidations, acquisitions, asset sales, dividend payments, stock redemptions or repurchases, transactions with stockholders and affiliates, liens, capital leases, negative pledges, sale-leaseback transactions, indebtedness, contingent obligations and investments.
As of July 1, 2005, we were in compliance with all the covenants of the New Credit Facility.
Old Credit Facility
Our old senior secured credit facility (“Old Credit Facility”) consisted of two term loans, Term Loan A and Term Loan B, and a revolving line of credit. Our Old Credit Facility was terminated and repaid in full on June 28, 2005. As of December 31, 2004, we had $353.8 million in principal amounts outstanding under the term loan facilities with interest rate at 4.42%. We had also drawn $18.0 million against our revolving line of credit and had outstanding standby letters of credit aggregating to $55.3 million, reducing the amount available to us under our revolving credit facility to $151.7 million. The effective average interest rates paid on the revolving line of credit from April 2 through June 28, 2005 and during the three months ended June 30, 2004 were approximately 5.9% and 5.8%, respectively. The effective average interest rates paid on the revolving line of credit from January 1 through June 28, 2005 and during the six months ended June 30, 2004 were approximately 6.0% and 5.6%, respectively.
Our average daily revolving line of credit balances for the three-month periods ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004 were $3.1 million and $22.1 million, respectively. The maximum amounts outstanding at any one point in time during the three-month periods ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004 were $22.8 million and $74.6 million, respectively. Our average daily revolving line of credit balances for the six-month periods ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004 were $3.3 million and $23.3 million, respectively. The maximum amounts outstanding at any one point in time during the six-month periods ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004 were $22.8 million and $74.6 million, respectively.
Other Indebtedness
111/2% Senior Notes (“111/2% notes”).As of July 1, 2005 and December 31, 2004, we had outstanding amounts of $2.8 million and $130.0 million, of the original outstanding principal, due 2009. On June 15, 2005, we accepted tenders for and retired $127.2 million of the 111/2% notes. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year. These notes are effectively subordinate to our New Credit Facility, capital leases, notes payable and senior to our 61/2% debentures described below.
121/4% Senior Subordinated Notes (“121/4% notes”). On February 14, 2005, we retired the entire outstanding balance of $10 million of our 121/4% notes. As of December 31, 2004, we owed $10 million.
61/2% Convertible Subordinated Debentures.As of July 1, 2005 and December 31, 2004, we owed $1.8 million due 2012. On July 15, 2005, we notified the trustee that we intend to redeem the remaining 61/2% debentures on August 15, 2005. Our 61/2% debentures are subordinate to our New Credit Facility, our 111/2% notes, capital leases and notes payable.

URS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – UNAUDITED (Continued)
Notes payable, foreign credit lines and other indebtedness. As of July 1, 2005 and December 31, 2004, we had outstanding amounts of $14.7 million and $13.4 million, respectively, in notes payable and foreign lines of credit. The weighted average interest rates of the notes were approximately 6.0% and 5.8% as of July 1, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively.
We maintain foreign lines of credit, which are collateralized by the assets of our foreign subsidiaries and letters of credit. As of July 1, 2005, we had drawn $4.3 million on our foreign lines of credit and had $11.4 million available under these facilities. As of December 31, 2004, we had drawn $8.5 million under our foreign lines of credit, reducing the amount available to $7.9 million. The interest rates were 8.9% and 8.6% as of July 1, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair values of the 111/2% notes and the 121/4% notes fluctuate depending on market conditions and our performance and at times may differ from their carrying values. On February 14, 2005, we retired the entire outstanding balance of $10 million on the 121/4% notes. On June 15, 2005, we retired 97.8% of the $130.0 million of the 111/2% notes with $2.8 million outstanding. We believe that the fair value of our remaining 111/2% notes approximate their carrying value as of July 1, 2005. As of December 31, 2004, the total fair values of the 111/2% notes and the 121/4% notes were approximately $161.5 million.

NOTE 5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In the ordinary course of business, we are subject to certain contractual guarantees and governmental audits or investigations and we are involved in various legal proceedings that are pending against us and our subsidiaries alleging, among other things, breach of contract or tort in connection with the performance of professional services, the various outcomes of which cannot be predicted with certainty. The following provides updated information regarding proceedings that were described in Note 9 to our consolidated financial statements, which were included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2004:
| • | | Saudi Arabia: Prior to our acquisition of Lear Seigler Services, Inc. (“LSI”) in August 2002, LSI provided aircraft maintenance support services on F-5 aircrafts under a contract (the “F-5 Contract”) with a Saudi Arabian government ministry (the “Ministry”). LSI’s operational performance under the F-5 contract was completed in November 2000 and the following legal proceedings ensued: |
|
| | | Two Saudi Arabian landlords have pursued claims over disputed rents in Saudi Arabia. The Saudi Arabian landlord of the Al Bilad complex received a judgment in Saudi Arabia against LSI for $7.9 million. Another landlord has obtained a judgment also in Saudi Arabia against |
15
URS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – UNAUDITED (Continued)
| | | LSI for $1.2 million, which was successfully appealed in June 2005 and remanded for future proceedings. LSI continues to pursue defenses disputing these claims and judgments, and is pursuing a countersuit against the landlord of the Al Bilad complex. |
|
| | | During fiscal year 2004, an arbitration ruling by the International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC”) was issued against LSI that included a monetary award of $5.5 million, plus interest, for a breach of contract claim to a joint venture partner (the “Claimant”). In August 2004, the Claimant filed an action in the United States District Court in Maryland to confirm and enforce the ICC award, which LSI opposed. In April 2005, the District Court issued a final judgment confirming and enforcing the Claimant’s ICC award. In June 2005, LSI appealed the District Court’s decision to the United States Fourth District Court of Appeals. |
|
| | | The Ministry prematurely directed payment of a performance bond outstanding under the F-5 Contract in the amount of approximately $5.6 million. Before LSI can complete its obligations under the F-5 Contract and the performance bond, it must successfully resolve all Saudi Arabian tax matters, including a pending tax assessment issued by the Saudi Arabian taxing authority against LSI of approximately $5.1 million in taxes for the years 1999 through 2002. We disagree with the Saudi Arabian taxing authority’s assessment and are providing responses, additional information and documentation to the taxing authority. However, Banque Saudi Fransi paid the $5.6 million performance bond amount to the Ministry and filed a reimbursement claim against LSI in December 2004 in the United Kingdom’s High Court of Justice, Queen’s Bench Division, Commercial Court. We believe Banque Saudi Fransi’s payment of the performance bond amount was inappropriate and constituted a contractual violation of our performance bond agreement. In April 2005, LSI responded to the Banque Saudi Fransi’s claim and the Commercial Court granted Banque Saudi Fransi an application for summary judgment. Upon the issuance of a final judgment by the Commercial Court, LSI will assess its legal options to determine whether to appeal the Commercial Court’s decision. In January 2005, LSI filed a claim against the Ministry in the United States District Court in Texas for wrongful demand of the performance bond, to collect all outstanding accounts receivable, to collect a claim for additional housing costs incurred at the direction of the Ministry, and for other contractual violations of the F-5 Contract. In March 2005, the Ministry responded to LSI’s claim by filing a motion to dismiss for lack of forum. |
|
| • | | Lebanon:Prior to our acquisition of Dames and Moore Group, Inc. in 1999, which included Radian International, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary (“Radian”), Radian entered into a contract to provide environmental remediation to a Lebanese company (“Solidere”) involved in the development and reconstruction of the central district of Beirut. Various disputes have arisen under this contract, including an allegation by Solidere that Radian breached the contract by, among other things, failing to reduce the level of chemical and biological constituents, including methane gas, at the project site to the contract level. The parties sought to resolve their disputes in an arbitration proceeding filed with the ICC. During July 2004, an ICC arbitration panel ruled against Radian and ordered Radian to prepare a plan to reduce the level of methane gas at the project site to the contract level, to pay approximately $2.4 million in attorney fees and other expenses to Solidere, and authorized Solidere to withhold project payments. At July 1, 2005, Solidere had withheld project payments amounting to $10.3 million included in consolidated accounts receivable. In addition, Radian has deferred other costs amounting to $5.3 million included in consolidated costs and accrued earnings in excess of billings on contracts in process and $3.0 million included in other assets. Radian is complying with the terms of the ICC arbitration panel’s ruling and continues to be actively engaged in attempting to resolve the various disputes directly with Solidere through alternate resolution strategies that may be more advantageous to both parties. |
|
| | | Solidere is also seeking damages for delays of up to $8.5 million and drew upon an $8.5 million bank guarantee at Saradar Bank, Sh.M.L. (“Saradar”). In July 2004, Saradar filed a |
16
URS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – UNAUDITED (Continued)
| | | reimbursement claim in the First Court in Beirut, Lebanon to recover the $8.5 million bank guarantee from Radian and co-defendant Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. In February 2005, Radian responded to Saradar’s claim by filing a Statement of Defense in the First Court of Beirut. In April 2005, Saradar also filed a reimbursement claim against Solidere in the First Court of Beirut. Radian believes that it is not obligated under the bank guarantee and intends to vigorously defend this matter. |
| | | Prior to entering into the Solidere contract, Radian obtained a project-specific, $50 million insurance policy from Alpina Insurance Company (“Alpina”) with a $1 million deductible, which Radian believes, is available to support its claims in excess of the deductible. The Solidere contract contains a $20 million limitation on damages. In October 2004, Alpina notified Radian of a denial of insurance coverage. Radian filed a breach of contract and bad faith claim against Alpina in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California in October 2004 seeking declaratory relief and monetary damages. In July 2005, Alpina responded to Radian’s claim by filing a motion to dismiss based on improper venue, which was granted by the District Court. The District Court’s decision, however, did not consider the underlying merits of Radian’s claim and Radian is currently evaluating its legal options, including appealing the decision or filing a claim in another jurisdiction. |
|
| • | | Tampa-Hillsborough County Expressway Authority: In 1999, we entered into an agreement with the Tampa-Hillsborough County Expressway Authority (the “Authority”) to provide foundation design and other services in connection with the construction of the Lee Roy Selmon Elevated Expressway structure in Tampa, Florida. In 2004, during construction, one pier out of over 200 piers subsided substantially, causing damage to a segment of the Expressway. The Authority has recently completed and is implementing a plan to remediate the damage to the Expressway. The Authority is pursuing claims against us and potentially other parties associated with the Expressway, alleging defects caused by services provided. Sufficient information is not currently available to assess liabilities associated with a remediation plan. |
Currently, we have limits of $125 million per loss and $125 million in the aggregate annually for general liability, professional errors and omissions liability and contractor’s pollution liability insurance (in addition to other policies for some specific projects). These policies include self-insured claim retention amounts of $4 million, $7.5 million and $7.5 million, respectively. In some actions, parties seek damages, including punitive or treble damages that substantially exceed our insurance coverage or are not insured.
Excess limits provided for these coverages are on a “claims made” basis, covering only claims actually made during the policy period currently in effect. Thus, if we do not continue to maintain these policies, we will have no coverage for claims made after the termination date – even for claims based on events that occurred during the term of coverage. We intend to maintain these policies; however, we may be unable to maintain existing coverage levels. We have maintained insurance without lapse for many years with limits in excess of losses sustained.
Although the outcome of our contingencies cannot be predicted with certainty and no assurances can be provided, based on our previous experience in such matters, we do not believe that any of our contingencies described above, individually or collectively, are likely to exceed established loss accruals or our various professional errors and omissions, project-specific and potentially other insurance policies. However, the resolution of outstanding contingencies is subject to inherent uncertainty and it is reasonably possible that such resolution could have an adverse effect on us.
As of July 1, 2005, we had the following guarantee obligations and commitments:
We have guaranteed the credit facility of one of our joint ventures, in the event of a default by the joint venture. This joint venture was formed in the ordinary course of business to perform a contract for the federal government. The term of the guarantee is equal to the remaining term of the underlying debt, which is
17
URS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – UNAUDITED (Continued)
eight months. The maximum potential amount of future payments that we could be required to make under this guarantee at July 1, 2005, was $6.5 million.
We also maintain a variety of commercial commitments that are generally made to support provisions of our contracts. In addition, in the ordinary course of business we provide letters of credit to clients and others against advance payments and to support other business arrangements. We are required to reimburse the issuers of letters of credit for any payments they make under the letters of credit.
From time to time, we may provide guarantees related to our services or work. If our services under a guaranteed project are later determined to have resulted in a material defect or other material deficiency, then we may be responsible for monetary damages or other legal remedies. When sufficient information about claims on guaranteed projects is available and monetary damages or other costs or losses are determined to be probable, we recognize such guarantee losses. Currently, we have no material guarantee claims for which losses have been recognized.
NOTE 6. SEGMENT AND RELATED INFORMATION
We operate our business through two segments: the URS Division and the EG&G Division. Our URS Division provides a comprehensive range of professional planning and design, program and construction management, and operations and maintenance services to the U.S. federal government, state and local government agencies, and private industry clients in the United States and internationally. Our EG&G Division provides planning, systems engineering and technical assistance, operations and maintenance, and program management services to various U.S. federal government agencies, primarily the Departments of Defense and Homeland Security.
These two segments operate under separate management groups and produce discrete financial information. Their operating results also are reviewed separately by management. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The information disclosed in our consolidated financial statements is based on the two segments that comprise our current organizational structure.
The following table presents summarized financial information of our reportable segments. “Eliminations” in the following tables include elimination of inter-segment sales and elimination of investment in subsidiaries.

NOTE 7. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION
On January 19, 2005, affiliates of Blum Capital Partners, L.P. (collectively, the “Blum Affiliates”) sold 2,000,000 shares of our common stock in an underwritten secondary offering. The general partner of Blum Capital Partners, L.P. is a member of our Board of Directors.
NOTE 8. COMMON STOCK
On June 8, 2005, we sold an aggregate of 3,636,721 shares of our common stock through a public offering. We granted the underwriters the right to purchase up to an additional 363,672 shares of our common stock to cover over-allotments (the “over-allotment shares”). On June 8, 2005, the underwriters exercised their option to purchase the over-allotment shares.
The offering price of our common stock was $34.50 per share and the total offering proceeds to us were $130.3 million, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering-related expenses of $7.8 million. We used the net proceeds from this common stock offering and cash available on hand to pay $127.2 million of the 111/2% notes and $18.8 million of tender premiums and expenses.
NOTE 9. SUPPLEMENTAL GUARANTOR INFORMATION
Substantially all of our domestic operating subsidiaries have guaranteed our obligations under our 111/2% notes. Each of the subsidiary guarantors has fully and unconditionally guaranteed our obligations on a joint and several basis.
Substantially all of our income and cash flows are generated by our subsidiaries. We have no operating assets or operations other than our investments in our subsidiaries. As a result, the funds necessary to meet our debt service obligations are provided in large part by distributions or advances from our subsidiaries. Financial conditions and operating requirements of the subsidiary guarantors may limit our ability to obtain cash from our subsidiaries for the purposes of meeting our debt service obligations, including the payment of principal and interest on our 111/2% notes. In addition, although the terms of our 111/2% notes limit us and our subsidiary guarantors’ ability to place contractual restrictions on the flow of funds to us, legal restrictions, including local regulations, and contractual obligations associated with secured loans, such as equipment financings at the subsidiary level, may restrict the subsidiary guarantors’ ability to pay dividends, or make loans or other distributions to us.
The following information sets forth our condensed consolidating balance sheets as of July 1, 2005 and December 31, 2004, and our condensed consolidating statements of operations and comprehensive income and for the three months and six months ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004; and our condensed consolidating statements of cash flows for the six months ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004. Elimination entries necessary to consolidate our subsidiaries are reflected in the eliminations column. Separate complete financial statements for our subsidiaries, which guarantee our 111/2% notes, would not provide additional material information that would be useful in assessing the financial condition of such subsidiaries.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion contains, in addition to historical information, forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those described here. You should read this discussion in conjunction with: the section “Risk Factors That Could Affect Our Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” beginning on page 47 and the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in Item 1, “Consolidated Financial Statements;” the footnotes to this report for the six months ended July 1, 2005; the section “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations;” and the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2004, which was previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
Fiscal Year Change
Effective January 1, 2005, we adopted a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Friday closest to December 31st, with interim quarters ending on the Fridays closest to March 31st, June 30th and September 30th. We filed a transition report on Form 10-Q with the SEC for the two months ended December 31, 2004. Our 2005 fiscal year began on January 1, 2005 and will end on December 30, 2005.
OVERVIEW
Business Summary
We are one of the world’s largest engineering design services firms and a major federal government contractor for systems engineering and technical assistance, and operations and maintenance services. Our business focuses primarily on providing fee-based professional and technical services in the engineering and defense markets, although we perform some construction work. As a service company, we are labor and not capital intensive. We derive income from our ability to generate revenues and collect cash from our clients through the billing of our employees’ time and our ability to manage our costs. We operate our business through two segments: the URS Division and the EG&G Division.
Our revenues are driven by our ability to attract qualified and productive employees, identify business opportunities, allocate our labor resources to profitable markets, secure new contracts, renew existing client agreements and provide outstanding services. Moreover, as a professional services company, the quality of the work generated by our employees is integral to our revenue generation.
Our costs are driven primarily by the compensation we pay to our employees, including fringe benefits, the cost of hiring subcontractors and other project-related expenses, and administrative, marketing, sales, bid and proposal, rental and other overhead costs.
Revenues for Three Months Ended July 1, 2005
Consolidated revenues for the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased 11.5% over the consolidated revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2004.
Revenues from our federal government clients for the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased approximately 18% compared with the corresponding period last year. The increase reflects continued growth in the services we provide to the Department of Defense, (“DOD”), and the Department of Homeland Security, (“DHS”), as a result of additional spending on engineering and technical services and operations and maintenance activities. In addition, we experienced an increase in environmental and facilities projects under existing contracts.
Revenues from our state and local government clients for the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased approximately 2% compared with the corresponding period last year. Tax receipts have increased
28
in many states, including several states where we have a major presence, leading to stable funding. This has in turn, reduced the pressure to limit infrastructure spending or shift funds away from infrastructure projects. However, the delay in the approval of successor legislation to TEA-21 continued to negatively affect the transportation market. Revenues from our domestic private industry clients for the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased 3% compared with the corresponding period last year. While revenues increased during the quarter, market conditions continued to be challenging for some of our multinational clients. Revenues from our international clients for the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased approximately 26% compared with the corresponding period last year. Approximately 5% of the increase was due to foreign currency exchange fluctuations. The remainder of the increase was due to growth in our businesses, primarily in the facilities and infrastructure work, and steady demand for our environmental services.
Financing Activities
During the quarter ended July 1, 2005, we sold 4,000,393 shares of our common stock through a public offering. We used the net proceeds of $130.3 million from this common stock offering and cash available on hand to pay $127.2 million of our 111/2% notes and $18.8 million of tender premiums and expenses. In addition, we borrowed $350.0 million under our New Credit Facility and used other available cash to pay off $353.8 million of outstanding Term Loans under our Old Credit Facility.
Cash Flows and Debt
We generated $88.0 million in net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended July 1, 2005. Our ratio of debt to total capitalization (total debt divided by the sum of debt and total stockholders’ equity) decreased from 34% at December 31, 2004 to 24% at July 1, 2005. (See “Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows” to our “Consolidated Financial Statements” included under Item 1 of this report.)
Business Trends
We expect revenue from our federal government clients to increase throughout fiscal year 2005 compared to fiscal year 2004, based on secured funding and anticipated spending by the DOD and the DHS. The House approved a $441.6 billion Department of Defense authorization budget for fiscal 2006, which the Senate is expected to consider in the early fall. The House bill includes $49.1 billion in supplemental spending to fund operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. A portion of this funding will be used to maintain and update military equipment. As a result, we may see other federal government opportunities for the operations and maintenance services provided by EG&G. We may also see additional federal government opportunities in the homeland security market, including preparedness exercises, infrastructure security improvement programs, and funding for projects to improve security at port and transit facilities. Furthermore, federal government opportunities under existing DOD contracts to provide environmental services for military sites and architectural and engineering services for facilities projects may also increase.
In addition, we may see increased federal government opportunities for our URS and EG&G Divisions due to large “bundled” contracts issued by the DOD, which typically require the provision of a full range of services — from planning and design through operations and maintenance — at multiple sites throughout the world. We continue to experience high and increasing work volume from defense technical services and military equipment maintenance contracts related to maintenance and modification work for military vehicles and weapons, associated with the continued high level of activities in the Middle East, and we expect this trend to continue while the military efforts in Iraq continue. However, because operations and maintenance and field based services generally carry lower margins than most other services we provide, we expect our gross profit margin percentage to continue to decrease slightly while the demand for such services continues at a high volume.
Finally, the next phase of the BRAC or Base Realignment and Closure program is proceeding, and Congress is expected to approve the list of bases to be closed or realigned by the end of 2005. A number of military bases worldwide may be affected by the BRAC program, which will require environmental, planning and design services before they can be closed or redeveloped. Accordingly, the BRAC program
29
may result in additional federal government opportunities for our URS Division, though it may have a negative or positive impact on our EG&G Division.
We expect revenues from our state and local government market to increase moderately during fiscal year 2005 as compared to fiscal year 2004. State economies and revenues continue to improve, but the recovery remains uneven, with some western states, including California improving strongly over the last year, while several of the Great Lakes region states are facing slower revenue growth. We may see additional state and local government opportunities with the recent passage by Congress of the TEA-21 successor highway and transit bill, SAFETEA-LU. SAFETEA-LU has a funding level of $286.5 billion over six years (2004-2009) and, upon its approval by the President, it may help re-start previously awarded projects that have been on hold and commence the procurement process for many other transportation projects.
We expect revenues from our domestic private industry market to increase slightly during the 2005 fiscal year as compared to fiscal year 2004. The recovery in the domestic private industry market remains uneven, with strong spending focused primarily in the oil and gas industry and the emissions controls market for the coal-fired power industry. The other industries we serve (e.g., manufacturing, chemicals) are not expected to significantly improve until at least 2006. Despite some weakness in the domestic private industry market, we may see additional opportunities because of our Master Service Agreement (“MSA”) contracts with multinational companies. In addition, the president recently signed an energy bill that provides incentives for the development of oil production, coal gasification, liquefied natural gas, renewable energy and pipeline projects by private industry.
We expect revenues from our international business clients to increase throughout fiscal year 2005 as compared to fiscal year 2004. Although the recovery in the domestic private industry market remains uneven, we have seen increased capital spending in countries outside the U.S. In addition, we may see further international opportunities due to the European Union’s recent environmental directives and regulations, the selection of London as the host city for the 2012 Olympics, and increased demand for our facilities design services for the United Kingdom Ministry of Defense and the U.S. DOD. In the Asia-Pacific region, strong economic growth is expected to increase opportunities in the infrastructure market, and the increased global demand for mineral resources is expected to provide additional opportunities in the mining sector.

Three months ended July 1, 2005 compared with June 30, 2004
Our consolidated revenuesfor the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 11.5% compared with the same period last year. The increase was due to the higher volume of work performed during the three months ended July 1, 2005, compared with the same period last year.

Revenues from our federal government clients for the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 18% compared with the same period last year. The increase reflects continued growth in operations and maintenance work for military equipment associated with the continued high level of activities in the Middle East, and systems engineering and technical assistance services for the development, testing and evaluation of weapons systems. The volume of task orders issued under Indefinite Delivery Contracts (“IDCs”) for the federal government continued to increase particularly for facilities and environmental projects and emergency preparedness exercises.
The majority of our work in the state and local government, the domestic private industry and the international sectors is derived from our URS Division. Further discussion of the factors and activities that
31
drove changes in operations on a segment basis for the three months ended July 1, 2005 can be found beginning on page 34.
Our consolidated direct operating expensesfor the three months ended July 1, 2005, which consist of direct labor, subcontractor costs and other direct expenses, increased by 13.2% compared with the same period last year. The factors that caused revenue growth also drove a corresponding increase in our direct operating expenses. Volume increases in work on existing contracts with lower profit margins caused direct operating expenses to increase at a faster rate than revenues.
Our consolidated gross profitfor the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 8.6% compared with the same period last year, primarily due to the increase of our revenue volume described previously. Our gross margin percentage, however, fell from 36.4% to 35.5%. The decrease in gross profit margin percentage was caused by a change in revenue mix between the two periods, with a higher volume of revenue coming from contracts with profit margins that were lower than those typically achieved through our historic portfolio of contracts.
Our consolidated indirect, general and administrative (“IG&A”)expenses for the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 10.6% compared with the same period last year. We incurred $32.3 million of loss on extinguishment of debt for the three months ended July 1, 2005, compared to $25.8 million during the same period last year, an increase of $6.5 million or 25.2%. In addition, our employee benefit costs, including healthcare, workers’ compensation, retirement program-related costs and incentive bonus expense, increased $16.2 million, or 14.6%, over the prior period. The remaining increases were primarily due to a $3.2 million increase in indirect labor, a $2.5 million increase in travel expenses, a $3.1 million increase in external consulting costs, and a $2.8 million increase in sales and business development expenses. These increases were offset by a $5.0 million decrease in bad debt expense.
Our consolidated net interest expensefor the three months ended July 1, 2005 decreased due to lower debt balances.
Our effective income tax ratesfor the three months ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004 were 39.9% and 40.0%, respectively.
Our consolidated operating income, net income and earnings per sharedecreased as a result of the factors previously described.

URS Division
The URS Division’s revenuesfor the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased 6.5% compared with the same period last year. The increase in revenues was due to the various factors discussed below in each of our client markets.
The following table presents the URS Division’s revenues, net of inter-company eliminations, by client type for the three months ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004.

Revenues from the URS Division’s federal government clients for the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 6% compared with the corresponding period last year. The increase was driven by additional environmental and facilities projects under existing contracts with the DOD. Revenues from homeland security projects also contributed to this growth, as we continued to provide a range of engineering services to the Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”). This work includes designs to help protect federal facilities from terrorists as well as disaster recovery services for the Federal Emergency Management Agency, which is now a part of DHS.
Revenues from our state and local government clients for the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased approximately 2% compared with the same period last year. The increase reflects a moderate improvement in the states’ economies and revenues, fueled by increased state tax revenues. The recovery in the state and local market continues to be uneven, with some western states, including California, showing strong growth over the last year, and states in the Great Lakes region experiencing a slower recovery.
The transportation market remained weak as states continued to wait for the passage of a successor bill to TEA-21. However, we continued to benefit from our successful strategy to shift resources away from surface transportation projects to other portions of the state and local government market – such as school facilities and water/wastewater projects – where funding is more stable or growing.
Revenues from our domestic private industry clients for the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 3% compared with the same period last year. Although several of our private industry clients (e.g., power and oil and gas) have seen increased capital spending, the overall recovery in this market remains slow. Our chemical industry clients continued to struggle and revenues from our manufacturing and pharmaceutical clients remained flat. We have, however, benefited from stricter air pollution control limits under the Clean Air Act, which has resulted in increased revenues from emissions control projects for power sector clients. In addition, we continued to benefit from our strategic focus of the past several years to win MSAs with major multinational private industry clients.
Revenues from our international clients for the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 26% compared with the same period last year. Approximately 5% of this increase was due to foreign currency exchange fluctuations. The remainder of the increase was due to our continuing efforts to diversify beyond environmental work into the facilities and infrastructure markets. The Asia-Pacific region benefited from strong economic growth, leading to increased funding for facilities and infrastructure programs, including transportation and water/wastewater projects. In addition, the increased global demand for mineral resources has resulted in additional projects for the mining industry. In Europe, we are continuing to benefit from more stringent environmental directives from the European Union and the Kyoto Protocol, leading to increased work in facility permitting, environmental impact statements (including sustainability issues) water and wastewater projects, and carbon emissions control projects.
The URS Division’s direct operating expensesfor the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 7.2% compared with the same period last year. The factors that caused revenue growth also drove an increase in our direct operating expenses.
The URS Division’s gross profitfor the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 5.4% compared with the same period last year, primarily due to the increase in revenue volume previously described. Our gross profit margin percentage decreased to 40.0% from 40.4% for the three months ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004, respectively. Our gross profit margin percentage decreased primarily because our subcontractor costs and other direct costs, which usually bear lower profit margins than our direct labor costs, accounted for a higher percentage of our total direct operating expenses during the three months ended July 1, 2005 (56.5%), compared with the three months ended June 30, 2004 (55.2%).
The URS Division’s IG&A expensesfor the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 5.9% compared with the same period last year. This increase was due to an additional $9.6 million in employee benefit costs, including higher healthcare, workers’ compensation, retirement program-related costs and incentive bonus expense. The remainder of the increase was due to a $2.7 million increase in sales and
34
business development expenses, a $1.5 million increase in external consulting cost, and $1.9 million of other miscellaneous general and administrative expenses. These increases were offset by a $5.4 million decrease in bad debt expense. Indirect expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased slightly to 32.4% from 32.6% for the three months ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004, respectively.
EG&G Division
The EG&G Division’s revenuesfor the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 22.1% compared with the corresponding period last year. This increase was driven by the high level of military activities in the Middle East, resulting in a higher volume of operations and maintenance and modification work for military vehicles and weapons. Revenues from the specialized systems engineering and technical assistance services that we provide for the development, testing and evaluation of weapons systems also increased. In addition, revenues generated from activities in the homeland security market increased during the quarter.
The EG&G Division’s direct operating expensesfor the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 23.5% compared with the corresponding period last year. Higher revenues drove an increase in our direct operating expenses. In addition, a greater volume of work on existing contracts with lower profit margins caused direct operating expenses to increase faster than revenues.
The EG&G Division’s gross profitfor the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 18.4% compared with the corresponding period last year. The increase in gross profit was primarily due to higher revenues from existing defense technical services and military equipment maintenance contracts. However, gross profit grew at a slower rate than revenue because a significant portion of the revenue increase was generated by operations and maintenance and field based services, which generally carry lower margins than most other services provided by the EG&G Division. Our gross profit margin percentage decreased to 27.0% from 27.8% for the three months ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004, respectively.
The EG&G Division’s IG&A expensesfor the three months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 17.6% compared with the corresponding period last year. The increase was primarily due to a higher business volume. The EG&G Division’s indirect expenses are generally variable in nature, and as such, any increase in business volume tends to result in higher indirect expenses. Of the total increase, approximately $5.6 million was due to volume increases in employee benefit costs, including higher healthcare, workers’ compensation and retirement program-related costs. Indirect labor increased by $2.1 million due to a higher headcount. In addition, other employee-related expenses, such as travel and recruiting expenses, increased by $1.4 million. Indirect expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased to 21.7% from 22.5% for the three months ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004, respectively, due to an increase in labor utilization and a decrease in bid and proposal costs compared with the same period last year.

Our consolidated indirect, general and administrative (“IG&A”)expenses for the six months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 9.3% compared with the same period last year. We incurred a $33.1 million of loss on extinguishment of debt for the six months ended July 1, 2005, compared to $25.8 million for the same period last year, an increase of $7.3 million or 28.3%. As a result of our increased work volume and our higher employee headcount, our indirect labor was increased by $7.1 million. Also, our employee benefit costs, including healthcare, workers’ compensation, retirement program-related costs and incentive bonus expense, increased $32.2 million, or 14.1%, over the prior period.

URS Division
The URS Division’s revenuesfor the six months ended July 1, 2005 increased 7.4% compared with the same period last year. The increase in revenues was due to the various factors discussed below in each of our client markets.

Revenues from our URS Division’s federal government clients for the six months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 9% compared with the corresponding period last year. The increase was driven by an increase in environmental and facilities projects under existing contracts with the DOD. Revenues from homeland security projects also contributed to this growth as we continued to provide a range of engineering services to the Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”). This work includes designs to help protect federal facilities from terrorists as well as disaster recovery services for the Federal Emergency Management Agency, which is now a part of DHS.
Revenues from our state and local government clients for the six months ended July 1, 2005 increased by approximately 4% compared with the same period last year. The increase reflects a moderate improvement in the states’ economies and revenues, fueled by increased state tax revenues. The recovery in the state and local market continues to be uneven, with the Southeastern region growing, some of the Western states, including California, showing strong growth, and most of the Great Lakes states experiencing a slower recovery.
The transportation market remained weak as states continued to wait for the passage of a successor bill to TEA-21. However, we continued to benefit from our successful strategy to shift resources away from surface transportation projects to other portions of the state and local government market — such as school facilities and water/wastewater projects — where funding is more stable or growing.
Revenues from our domestic private industry clients for the six months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 3% compared with the same period last year. Although we saw some indications of increased capital spending by several of our domestic private industry clients, the overall recovery in this market remained slow. Our chemical industry clients continued to struggle and revenues from our manufacturing and pharmaceutical clients remained flat. There are some pockets of strength, however, including the power and oil and gas businesses.
In addition, we continued to benefit from our strategic focus of the past several years to win MSAs with major multinational private industry clients. We also benefited from stricter air pollution control limits under the Clean Air Act, which has resulted in increased revenues from emissions control projects for power sector clients.
Revenues from our international clients for the six months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 23% compared with the same period last year. Approximately 5% of this increase was due to foreign currency exchange fluctuations. The Asia-Pacific region continues to benefit from a strong economy, resulting in increased opportunities in facilities, infrastructure and natural resource projects, such as mining. In Europe,
39
the increased revenues primarily are due to the enactment of more stringent environmental directives and regulations and the expansion of our service offering to include a higher volume of infrastructure projects.
The URS Division’s direct operating expensesfor the six months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 8.3% compared with the same period last year. The factors that caused revenue growth also drove an increase in our direct operating expenses.
The URS Division’s gross profitfor the six months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 6.2% compared with the same period last year, primarily due to the increase in revenue volume previously described. Our gross profit margin percentage decreased to 40.5% from 41.0% for the six months ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004, respectively.
The URS Division’s IG&A expensesfor the six months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 6.2% compared with the same period last year. This increase was due to an additional $19.7 million in employee benefit costs, including higher healthcare, workers’ compensation, retirement program-related costs, and incentive bonus expenses. The remainder of the increase was due to a $2.6 million increase in indirect labor, a $5.0 million increase in sales and business development expenses, and a $2.1 million increase in travel expenses. These increases were offset by $6.4 million in bad debt expense. Indirect expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased slightly to 33.2% from 33.6% for the six months ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004, respectively.
EG&G Division
The EG&G Division’s revenuesfor the six months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 19.5% compared with the corresponding period last year. This increase was driven by the military activities in the Middle East, resulting in a higher volume of operations and maintenance and modification work for military vehicles and weapons systems. Revenues from the specialized systems engineering and technical assistance services that we provide for the development, testing and evaluation of weapons systems remained strong. In addition, revenues generated from activities in the homeland security market increased during the first half of the fiscal year.
The EG&G Division’s direct operating expensesfor the six months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 21.5% compared with the corresponding period last year. Higher revenues drove an increase in our direct operating expenses. In addition, a greater volume of work on existing contracts with lower profit margins caused direct operating expenses to increase faster than revenues.
The EG&G Division’s gross profitfor the six months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 14.2% compared with the corresponding period last year. The increase in gross profit was primarily due to increased revenues from existing defense technical services and military equipment maintenance contracts. However, gross profit grew at a slower rate than revenue because a significant portion of the revenue increase was generated by operations and maintenance and field based services, which generally carry lower margins than most other services provided by the EG&G Division. Our gross profit margin percentage decreased to 26.8% from 28.0% for the six months ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004, respectively.
The EG&G Division’s IG&A expensesfor the six months ended July 1, 2005 increased by 13.2% compared with the corresponding period last year. The increase was primarily due to a higher business volume. The EG&G Division’s indirect expenses are generally variable in nature, and as such, any increase in business volume tends to lead to a higher employee headcount and higher indirect expenses. Of the total increase, approximately $10.2 million was due to volume increases in employee benefit costs, including higher healthcare, workers’ compensation and retirement program-related costs. Our indirect labor also was increased by $3.8 million due to the higher employee headcount. Other employee-related expenses, such as travel and recruiting expenses, increased by $3.2 million. Indirect expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased to 22.1% from 23.3% for the six months ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004, respectively, due to an increase in labor utilization and a decrease in bid and proposal costs compared with the same period last year.

| | Six Months Ended, |
| | July 1, | | June 30, |
| | 2005 | | 2004 |
| | (In millions) |
Cash flows provided by operating activities | | $ | 88.0 | | | $ | 63.7 | |
Cash flows used by investing activities | | | (7.2 | ) | | | (11.7 | ) |
Cash flows used by financing activities | | | (112.1 | ) | | | (36.6 | ) |

Proceeds from sale of common shares and exercise of stock options | | | 25.6 | | | | 17.3 | |
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations, borrowings from our Credit Facility and, during the six months ended July 1, 2005, a public common stock offering. Our primary uses of cash are to fund our working capital and capital expenditures and to service our debt. We believe that we have sufficient resources to fund our operating and capital expenditure requirements, as well as service our debt, for the next 12 months and beyond. If we experience a significant change in our business such as the consummation of a significant acquisition, we would likely need to acquire additional sources of financing. We believe that we would be able to obtain adequate resources to address significant changes in our business at reasonable rates and terms, as necessary, based on our past experience with business acquisitions.
We are dependent on the cash flows generated by our subsidiaries and, consequently, on their ability to collect on their respective accounts receivables. Substantially all of our cash flows are generated by our subsidiaries. As a result, the funds necessary to meet our debt service obligations are provided in large part by distributions or advances from our subsidiaries. The financial condition and operational requirements of our subsidiaries may limit our ability to obtain cash from them.
Billings and collections on accounts receivable can impact our operating cash flows. Management places significant emphasis on collection efforts, has assessed the allowance accounts for receivables as of July 1, 2005 and has deemed them to be adequate; however, future economic conditions may adversely impact some of our clients’ ability to pay our bills or the timeliness of their payments. Consequently, it may also impact our ability to consistently collect cash from them to meet our operating needs.
Operating Activities
The increase in cash flows from operating activities was due to the changes in accrued earnings in excess of billings on contracts in process, which resulted from timing of billings and collections, offset by the changes in accounts payable, which resulted from timing of payments.
Investing Activities
As a professional services organization, we are not capital intensive. Capital expenditures historically have been primarily for computer-aided design, accounting and project management information systems, and general purpose computer equipment to accommodate our growth. Capital expenditures, excluding purchases financed through capital leases, during the six months ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004 were $9.1 million and $11.7 million, respectively.
Financing Activities
On June 8, 2005, we sold an aggregate of 3,636,721 shares of our common stock through a public offering. We granted the underwriters the right to purchase up to an additional 363,672 shares of our common stock to cover over-allotments (the “over-allotment shares”). On June 8, 2005, the underwriters exercised their option to purchase the over-allotment shares. The offering price of our common stock was
41
$34.50 per share and the total offering proceeds to us were $130.3 million, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering-related expenses of $7.8 million.
We used the net proceeds from this common stock offering and cash available on hand to pay $127.2 million of the 111/2% notes and $18.8 million of tender premiums and expenses. In addition, we retired $353.8 million of the Term Loans outstanding under our Old Credit Facility and entered into a New Credit Facility of $350.0 million on June 28, 2005. As a result of the debt retirement and terms of the New Credit Facility, we expect our interest expense to be reduced substantially compared to historical levels. Moreover, during the first quarter of fiscal year 2005, we retired the remaining $10 million of outstanding balance of 121/4% notes. As a result of the aforementioned debt extinguishment, we recognized a pre-tax charge of $33.1 million, which consisted of tender/call premiums and expenses of $19.4 million and the write-off of $13.7 million in unamortized financing fees, issuance costs and debt discounts.
Cash flows from financing activities of $112.1 million during the six months ended July 1, 2005 consist primarily of the following activities:
| • | | Payment of $353.8 million of the Term Loans under our Old Credit Facility; |
|
| • | | Net payment of $13.7 million under the line of credit; |
|
| • | | Payment of $10.0 million of our 121/4% notes; |
|
| • | | Payment of $6.9 million in capital lease obligation; |
|
| • | | Change in book overdraft of $69.8 million; |
|
| • | | Proceeds from sale of common stock from the employee stock purchase plan and exercise of stock options of $25.6 million; |
|
| • | | Issuance of $350.0 million of New Term Loan, $10.0 million of which was paid during the period; and |
|
| • | | Net proceeds generated from our public common stock offering of $130.3 million, which was used to pay $127.2 million of our 111/2% notes and $18.8 million of tender premiums and expenses; |
Cash flows from financing activities of $36.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2004 consist primarily of the following activities:
| • | | Net proceeds generated from our public common stock offering of $204.3 million, which was used to fund a majority of the payments of $160.0 million of our 121/4% notes and $70.0 million of our 111/2% notes; |
|
| • | | Payment of $17.9 million in call premiums on our 121/4% notes and our 111/2% notes; |
|
| • | | Proceeds from sale of common stock from the employee stock purchase plan and exercise of stock options of $17.3 million; |
|
| • | | Net payment of $4.0 million of the Term Loans under our Old Credit Facility; |
|
| • | | Payment of $6.5 million of our 8 5/8% senior subordinated debentures; |
|
| • | | Payment of $7.0 million in capital lease obligations; |
|
| • | | Change in book overdraft of $8.9 million; and |
|
| • | | Net borrowings under the line of credit of $16.5 million. |

|
(2) | | These pension funding requirements are for the EG&G pension plans and the supplemental executive retirement plan (“SERP”) for Mr. Koffel based on actuarially determined estimates and management assumptions. We are obligated to fund approximately $10.7 million into a rabbi trust for Mr. Koffel’s SERP. However, Mr. Koffel has agreed to defer this funding obligation until he chooses to request the funding by giving us a 15-day notice or until his death or the termination of his employment for any reason. We chose not to make estimates beyond one year based on a variety of factors, including amounts required by local laws and regulations, and other funding requirements. |
|
(3) | | Purchase obligations consist primarily of software maintenance contracts. |
|
(4) | | These operating leases are predominantly real estate leases. |
Off-balance Sheet Arrangements.As of July 1, 2005, we had a total available balance of $59.3 million in standby letters of credit under our New Credit Facility. Letters of credit are used primarily to support insurance programs, bonding arrangements and real estate leases. We are required to reimburse the issuers of letters of credit for any payments they make under the outstanding letters of credit. The New Credit Facility covers the issuance of our standby letters of credit and is critical for our normal operations. If we default on the New Credit Facility, our ability to issue or renew standby letters of credit would impair our ability to maintain normal operations.
We have guaranteed the credit facility of one of our joint ventures in the event of a default by the joint venture. This joint venture was formed in the ordinary course of business to perform a contract for the federal government. The term of the guarantee is equal to the remaining term of the underlying debt, which is eight months. The maximum potential amount of future payments that we could be required to make under this guarantee at July 1, 2005 was $6.5 million.
We have an agreement to indemnify one of our joint venture lenders up to $25.0 million for any potential losses and damages, and liabilities associated with lawsuits in relation to general and administrative services we provide to the joint venture.
From time to time, we provide guarantees related to our services or work. If our services under a guaranteed project are later determined to have resulted in a material defect or other material deficiency, then we may be responsible for monetary damages or other legal remedies. When sufficient information about claims on guaranteed projects is available and monetary damages or other costs or losses are
43
determined to be probable, we recognize such guarantee losses; however, we cannot estimate the amount of any guarantee until a determination has been made that a material defect has occurred. Currently, we have no guarantee claims for which losses have been recognized.
New Credit Facility.On June 28, 2005, we entered into a new senior credit facility (“New Credit Facility”) consisting of a 6-year Term Loan of $350.0 million and a 5-year Revolving Line of Credit of $300.0 million, against which up to $200.0 million can be used to issue letters of credit. As of July 1, 2005, we had $340.0 million outstanding under the Term Loan, $59.3 million in letters of credit, and no amount outstanding under the Revolving Line of Credit.
Our Revolving Line of Credit is used to fund daily operating cash needs and to support our standby letters of credit. During the ordinary course of business, the use of our Revolving Line of Credit is driven by collection and disbursement activities. Our daily cash needs generally follow a predictable pattern that parallels our payroll cycles, which drive, as necessary, our short term borrowing requirements.
Principal amounts under the Term Loan will become due and payable on a quarterly basis: 15% of the principal will be payable in four equal quarterly payments beginning in the third quarter of 2008, 20% of the principal will be due during the next four quarters, and 65% will be due in the final four quarters ending on June 28, 2011. Our Revolving Line of Credit expires and is payable in full on June 28, 2010. At our option, we may repay the loans under our New Credit Facility without premium or penalty.
All loans outstanding under our New Credit Facility bear interest at either LIBOR or the bank’s base rate plus an applicable margin, at our option. The applicable margin will change based upon our credit rating as reported by Moody’s Investor Services (“Moody’s”) and Standard & Poor’s. The LIBOR margin will range from 0.625% to 1.75% and the base rate margin will range from 0.0% to 0.75%. As of July 1, 2005, the LIBOR margin was 1.25% for both the Term Loan and Revolving Line of Credit. As of July 1, 2005, the interest rate on our Term Loan was 4.74%.
A substantial number of our domestic subsidiaries are guarantors of the New Credit Facility on a joint and several basis. Initially, the obligations are collateralized by our guarantors’ capital stock. The collateralized obligations will be eliminated if we reach an investment grade credit rating of “Baa3” from Moody’s and “BBB-” from Standard & Poor’s. If our credit rating were to fall to or below, “Ba2” from Moody’s or “BB” from Standard & Poor’s, we must provide a secured interest in substantially all of our existing and subsequently acquired personal and real property, in addition to the collateralized guarantors’ capital stock. Although the capital stock of the non-guarantor subsidiaries are not required to be pledged as collateral, the terms of the New Credit Facility restrict the non-guarantors’ assets, with some exceptions, from being used as a pledge for future liens (a “negative pledge”). Moody’s upgraded our credit rating from “Ba2” to “Ba1” on June 20, 2005. On July 26, 2005, Standard & Poor’s upgraded our credit rating from “BB” to “BB+.”
Our New Credit Facility contains financial covenants. We are required to maintain: (a) a maximum ratio of total funded debt to total capital of 40% or less and (b) a minimum interest coverage ratio of not less than 3.0:1. The interest coverage ratio is calculated by dividing consolidated Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”), as defined in our New Credit Facility agreement, by consolidated cash interest expense.
The New Credit Facility also contains customary events of default and customary affirmative and negative covenants including, but not limited to, limitations on mergers, consolidations, acquisitions, asset sales, dividend payments, stock redemptions or repurchases, transactions with stockholders and affiliates, liens, capital leases, negative pledges, sale-leaseback transactions, indebtedness, contingent obligations and investments.
As of July 1, 2005, we were in compliance with all the covenants of the New Credit Facility.
44
Old Senior Secured Credit Facility (“Old Credit Facility”).The Old Credit Facility consisted of two term loans, Term Loan A and Term Loan B, and a revolving line of credit. Our Old Credit Facility was terminated and repaid in full on June 28, 2005. As of December 31, 2004, we had $353.8 million in principal amounts outstanding under the term loan facilities with interest rate at 4.42%. We had also drawn $18.0 million against our revolving line of credit and had outstanding standby letters of credit aggregating to $55.3 million, reducing the amount available to us under our revolving credit facility to $151.7 million. The effective average interest rates paid on the revolving line of credit from April 2 through June 28, 2005 and during the three months ended June 30, 2004 were approximately 5.9% and 5.8%, respectively. The effective average interest rates paid on the revolving line of credit from January 1 through June 28, 2005 and during the six months ended June 30, 2004 were approximately 6.0% and 5.6%, respectively.
Our average daily revolving line of credit balances for the three-month periods ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004 were $3.1 million and $22.1 million, respectively. The maximum amounts outstanding at any one point in time during the three-month periods ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004 were $22.8 million and $74.6 million, respectively. Our average daily revolving line of credit balances for the six-month periods ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004 were $3.3 million and $23.3 million, respectively. The maximum amounts outstanding at any one point in time during the six-month periods ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004 were $22.8 million and $74.6 million, respectively.
111/2% Senior Notes (“111/2% notes”).As of July 1, 2005 and December 31, 2004, we had outstanding amounts of $2.8 million and $130.0 million, of the original outstanding principal, due 2009. On June 15, 2005, we accepted tenders for and retired $127.2 million of the 111/2% notes. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year. These notes are effectively subordinate to our New Credit Facility, capital leases, notes payable and senior to our 61/2% debentures described below.
121/4% Senior Subordinated Notes. On February 14, 2005, we retired the entire outstanding balance of $10 million of our 121/4% notes. As of December 31, 2004, we owed $10 million.
61/2% Convertible Subordinated Debentures.As of July 1, 2005 and December 31, 2004, we owed $1.8 million due 2012. On July 15, 2005, we notified the trustee that we intend to redeem the remaining 61/2% debentures on August 15, 2005. Our 61/2% debentures are subordinate to our New Credit Facility, our 111/2% notes, capital leases and notes payable.
Notes payable, foreign credit lines and other indebtedness. As of July 1, 2005 and December 31, 2004, we had outstanding amounts of $14.7 million and $13.4 million, respectively, in notes payable and foreign lines of credit.
Capital Leases. As of July 1, 2005, we had $37.8 million in obligations under our capital leases, consisting primarily of leases for office equipment, computer equipment and furniture.
Operating Leases. As of July 1, 2005, we had approximately $428.2 million in obligations under our operating leases, consisting primarily of real estate leases.
Related-Party Transaction.On January 19, 2005, affiliates of Blum Capital Partners, L.P. (collectively, the “Blum Affiliates”) sold 2,000,000 shares of our common stock in an underwritten secondary offering. The general partner of Blum Capital Partners, L.P. is a member of our Board of Directors.
Derivative Financial Instruments.We are exposed to risk of changes in interest rates as a result of borrowings under our New Credit Facility. During the six months ended July 1, 2005, we did not enter into any interest rate derivatives due to our assessment of the costs/benefits of interest rate hedging given the current low interest rate environment. However, we may enter into derivative financial instruments in the future depending on changes in interest rates.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions in the application of certain accounting policies that affect amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included in Item 1 of this report. In preparing these financial statements, we have made our best estimates and judgments of certain amounts, giving consideration to materiality. Historically, our estimates have not materially differed from actual results. Application of these accounting policies, however, involves the exercise of judgment and the use of assumptions as to future uncertainties. Consequently, actual results could differ from our estimates.
The accounting policies that we believe are most critical to an investor’s understanding of our financial results and condition, and require complex management judgment are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended October 31, 2004. To date, there have been no material changes to these critical accounting policies during the six months ended July 1, 2005.
Adopted and Recently Issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (Revised), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”). SFAS 123(R) replaces SFAS 123 and supersedes APB 25. In April 2005, the SEC adopted Rule 4-01(a) of Regulation S-X, which defers the required effective date of SFAS 123(R) to the first fiscal year beginning after June 15, 2005, instead of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2005 as originally required. SFAS 123(R) will become effective for us on December 31, 2005 (the “Effective Date”), but early adoption is allowed. SFAS 123(R) requires that the costs resulting from all stock-based compensation transactions be recognized in the financial statements. SFAS 123(R) applies to all stock-based compensation awards granted, modified or settled in interim or fiscal periods after the required Effective Date, but does not apply to awards granted in periods before the required Effective Date, unless they are modified, repurchased or cancelled after the Effective Date. SFAS 123(R) also amends Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows,”to require that excess tax benefits from the exercises of stock-based compensation awards be reported as a financing cash inflow rather than as an operating cash inflow.
In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”) to provide implementation guidance on SFAS 123(R). SAB 107 was issued to assist registrants in implementing SFAS 123(R) while enhancing the information that investors receive.
Upon adoption of SFAS 123(R), we will be required to record an expense for our stock-based compensation plans using a fair value method. We are currently evaluating which transition method we will use upon adoption of SFAS 123(R) and the potential impacts it will have on our compensation plans. SFAS 123(R) will impact our financial statements as we historically have recorded our stock-based compensation in accordance with APB 25, which does not require the recording of an expense for our stock-based compensation plans for options granted at a price equal to the fair market value of the shares on the grant date and for the fair value of the shares purchased through the ESPP.
In November 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 151, “Inventory Costs, and Amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 43 (“ARB No. 43”), Chapter 4” (“SFAS 151”). SFAS 151 amends the guidance in ARB No. 43 Chapter 4, “Inventory Pricing,” by clarifying that abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage) be recognized as current period charges. The provisions of SFAS 151 are effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS 151 will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
In May 2005, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” (“SFAS 154”), which replaces Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.
46
20, “Accounting Changes,” and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements.” SFAS 154 requires retroactive application of a change in accounting principle to prior period financial statements unless it is impracticable. SFAS 154 also requires that a change in method of depreciation, amortization, or depletion for long-lived, non-financial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate resulting from a change in accounting principle. It is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Depending on the type of accounting change, the adoption of SFAS 154 may have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Risk Factors That Could Affect Our Financial Condition and Results of Operations
In addition to the other information included or incorporated by reference in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the following factors could affect our financial condition and results of operations:
Demand for our services is cyclical and vulnerable to economic downturns. If the current economy worsens, then our revenues, profits and our financial condition may deteriorate.
Demand for our services is cyclical and vulnerable to economic downturns, which may result in clients delaying, curtailing or canceling proposed and existing projects. Our clients may demand better pricing terms and their ability to pay our invoices may be affected by the economy. Our government clients may face budget deficits that prohibit them from funding proposed and existing projects. Our business traditionally lags the overall recovery in the economy; therefore, our business may not recover immediately when the economy improves. Although some economic fundamentals have improved, demand for services from some of our clients has not increased. If the current economy worsens, then our revenues, profits and overall financial condition may deteriorate.
Unexpected termination of a substantial portion of our book of business could harm our operations and significantly reduce our future revenues.
We account for all contract awards that may be recognized as revenues as our book of business, which includes backlog, designations, option years and indefinite delivery contracts. Our backlog consists of the amount billable at a particular point in time, including task orders issued under indefinite delivery contracts. As of July 1, 2005, our backlog was approximately $3.7 billion. Our designations consist of projects that clients have awarded us, but for which we do not yet have signed contracts. Our option year contracts are multi-year contracts with base periods plus option years that are exercisable by our clients without the need for us to go through another competitive bidding process. Our indefinite delivery contracts are signed contracts under which we perform work only when our clients issue specific task orders. Our book of business estimates may not result in actual revenues in any particular period since clients may terminate or delay projects, or decide not to award task orders under indefinite delivery contracts. Unexpected termination of a substantial portion of our book of business could harm our operations and significantly reduce our future revenues.
As a government contractor, we are subject to a number of procurement laws and regulations and government audits; a violation of such laws could result in sanctions, contract termination, harm to our reputation or loss of our status as an eligible government contractor.
We must comply with and are affected by federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations relating to the formation, administration and performance of government contracts. For example, we must comply with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (“FAR”), the Truth in Negotiations Act, the Cost Accounting Standards (“CAS”), the Service Contract Act, and DOD security regulations, as well as many other rules and regulations. These laws and regulations affect how we transact business with our clients and in some instances, impose additional costs to our business operations. Even though we take precautions to prevent and deter fraud and misconduct, we face the risk that our employees or outside partners may engage in misconduct, fraud or other improper activities. Government agencies, such as the U.S. Defense Contract
47
Audit Agency (“DCAA”), routinely audit and investigate government contractors. These government agencies review and audit a government contractor’s performance under its contracts, cost structure and compliance with applicable laws, regulations and standards. In addition, during the course of its audits, the DCAA may question incurred costs if the DCAA believes we have accounted for such costs in a manner inconsistent with the requirements for the FAR or CAS and recommend that our U.S. government corporate administrative contracting officer disallow such costs. Historically, we have not experienced significant disallowed costs as a result of such audits. However, we can provide no assurance that the DCAA or other government audits will not result in material disallowances for incurred costs in the future. Government contract violations could result in the imposition of civil and criminal penalties or sanctions, contract termination, forfeiture of profit, and/or suspension of payment, any of which could make us lose our status as an eligible government contractor. We could also suffer serious harm to our reputation.
Because we depend on federal, state and local governments for a significant portion of our revenue, our inability to win profitable government contracts could harm our operations and significantly reduce or eliminate our profits.
Revenues from federal government contracts and state and local government contracts represented approximately 47% and 22%, respectively, of our total revenues for the six months ended July 1, 2005. Our inability to win profitable government contracts could harm our operations and significantly reduce or eliminate our profits. Government contracts are typically awarded through a heavily regulated procurement process. Some government contracts are awarded to multiple competitors, causing increases in overall competition and pricing pressure. The competition and pricing pressure, in turn may require us to make sustained post-award efforts to reduce costs in order to realize revenues under these contracts. If we are not successful in reducing the amount of costs we anticipate, our profitability on these contracts will be negatively impacted. Moreover, even if we are qualified to work on a new government contract, we may not be awarded the contract because of existing government policies designed to protect small businesses and underrepresented minority contractors. Finally, government clients can generally terminate or modify their contracts with us at their convenience.
Each year a portion of our multiple-year government contracts may be subject to legislative appropriations. If legislative appropriations are not made in subsequent years of a multiple-year government contract, then we may not realize all of our potential revenues and profits from that contract.
Each year a portion of our multiple-year government contracts may be subject to legislative appropriations. Legislatures typically appropriate funds for a given program on a year-by-year basis, even though contract performance may take more than one year. As a result, at the beginning of a project, the related contract may only be partially funded, and additional funding is normally committed only as appropriations are made in each subsequent year. These appropriations, and the timing of payment of appropriated amounts, may be influenced by, among other things, the state of the economy, competing political priorities, curtailments in the use of government contracting firms, budget constraints, the timing and amount of tax receipts and the overall level of government expenditures. If appropriations are not made in subsequent years of a multiple-year contract, we may not realize all of our potential revenues and profits from that contract.
If we are unable to accurately estimate and control our contract costs, then we may incur losses on our contracts, which may result in decreases in our operating margins and in a significant reduction or elimination of our profits.
It is important for us to control our contract costs so that we can maintain positive operating margins. We generally enter into three principal types of contracts with our clients: cost-plus, fixed-price and time-and-materials. Under cost-plus contracts, which may be subject to contract ceiling amounts, we are reimbursed for allowable costs and fees, which may be fixed or performance-based. If our costs exceed the contract ceiling or are not allowable under the provisions of the contract or any applicable regulations, we may not be reimbursed for all our costs. Under fixed-price contracts, we receive a fixed price regardless of
48
what our actual costs will be. Consequently, we realize a profit on fixed-price contracts only if we control our costs and prevent cost over-runs on the contracts. Under time-and-materials contracts, we are paid for labor at negotiated hourly billing rates and for other expenses. Profitability on these types of contracts is driven by billable headcount and control of cost over-runs. Under each type of contract, if we are unable to control costs, we may incur losses on our contracts, which may result in decreases in our operating margins and in a significant reduction or elimination of our profits.
Actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions that we use to prepare our financial statements, which may significantly reduce or eliminate our profits.
To prepare financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions as of the date of the financial statements, which affect the reported values of assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Areas requiring significant estimates by our management include:
| • | | contract costs and profits and application of percentage-of-completion accounting and revenue recognition of contracts and contract claims; |
|
| • | | provisions for uncollectible receivables and customer claims and recoveries of costs from subcontractors, vendors and others; |
|
| • | | provisions for income taxes and related valuation allowances; |
|
| • | | recoverability of goodwill and other intangible assets; |
|
| • | | valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with business combinations; |
|
| • | | valuation of defined benefit pension plans and other employee benefit plans; and |
|
| • | | accruals for estimated liabilities, including litigation and insurance reserves. |
Our actual results could differ from those estimates, which may significantly reduce or eliminate our profits.
Our use of the percentage-of-completion method of accounting could result in reduction or reversal of previously recorded revenues and profits.
A substantial portion of our revenues and profits are measured and recognized using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting. Generally, our use of this method results in recognition of revenues and profits ratably over the life of the contract, based on the proportion of costs incurred to date to total costs expected to be incurred for the entire project. The effect of revisions to revenues and estimated costs is recorded when the amounts are known and can be reasonably estimated. Such revisions could occur in any period and their effects could be material. Although we have historically made reasonably reliable estimates of the progress towards completion of long-term engineering, program and construction management or construction contracts in process, the uncertainties inherent in the estimating process make it possible for actual costs to vary materially from estimates, including reductions or reversals of previously recorded revenues and profits.
49
If we fail to timely complete or if we miss a required performance standards associated with a project, then we may incur a loss on that project or we may generate a lower profit.
We may promise our client that we will complete a project by a scheduled date. We may also promise that a project, when completed, will achieve specified performance standards. If the project is not completed by the scheduled date or subsequently fails to meet required performance standards, we may either incur significant additional costs or be held responsible for the costs incurred by the client to rectify damages due to late completion or failure to achieve the required performance standards. In some cases, should we fail to meet required performance standards, we may also be subject to agreed-upon damages, which are fixed in amount by the contract. To the extent that these events occur, the total costs of the project could exceed our estimates and we could experience reduced profits or, in some cases, incur a loss on that project.
If our partners fail to perform their contractual obligations on a project, we could be exposed to legal liability, loss of reputation or reduced profits.
We sometimes enter into subcontracts, joint ventures and other contractual arrangements with outside partners to jointly bid on and execute a particular project. The success of these joint projects depends on the satisfactory performance of the contractual obligations of our partners. If any of our partners fails to satisfactorily perform their contractual obligations, we may be required to make additional investments and provide additional services to complete the project. If we are unable to adequately address our partner’s performance issues, then our client could terminate the joint project, exposing us to legal liability, loss of reputation or reduced profits.
Our indebtedness could adversely affect our financial condition.
During June 2005, we retired the entire outstanding amount of $365.8 million under our Old Credit Facility and entered into a New Credit Facility of $350.0 million on June 28, 2005. As of July 1, 2005, we had $397.1 million of outstanding indebtedness. In addition, as of July 1, 2005, we have issued $59.3 million in letters of credit against our revolving line of credit. This level of indebtedness could have a negative impact on us because it may:
| • | | limit our ability to borrow money in the future; |
|
| • | | limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business; |
|
| • | | place us at a competitive disadvantage if we are leveraged more than our competitors; |
|
| • | | limit us from making strategic acquisitions or exploiting business opportunities; |
|
| • | | make us more vulnerable to a downturn in our business or the economy; and |
|
| • | | require us to maintain financial ratios, which we may not be able to achieve. |
Because we are a holding company, we may not be able to service our debt if our subsidiaries do not make sufficient distributions to us.
We have no direct operations and no significant assets other than investments in the stock of our subsidiaries. Because we conduct our business operations through our operating subsidiaries, we depend on those entities for dividends and other payments to generate the funds necessary to meet our financial obligations. Legal restrictions, including local regulations and contractual obligations associated with secured loans, such as equipment financings, may restrict our subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends or make loans or other distributions to us. The earnings from, or other available assets of, these operating subsidiaries may not be sufficient to make distributions to enable us to pay interest on our debt obligations when due or to pay the principal of such debt at maturity.
50
Restrictive covenants in our New Credit Facility may restrict our ability to pursue business strategies.
Our New Credit Facility may limit our ability to, among other things:
| • | | incur additional indebtedness; |
|
| • | | pay dividends and make distributions to our stockholders; |
|
| • | | repurchase or redeem our stock; |
|
| • | | repay indebtedness that is junior to our New Credit Facility or our outstanding indebtedness; |
|
| • | | make investments and other restricted payments; |
|
| • | | create liens securing debt or other encumbrances on our assets; |
|
| • | | enter into sale-leaseback transactions; |
|
| • | | enter into transactions with our stockholders and affiliates; |
|
| • | | sell or exchange assets; and |
|
| • | | pledge assets that would result in less security for our debt holders. |
Our New Credit Facility also requires that we maintain financial ratios, which we may not be able to achieve and may impair our ability to finance future operations, capital needs or engage in other favorable business activities.
We may incur substantial costs of compliance with, or liabilities under, environmental laws and regulations.
Our environmental business involves the planning, design, program and construction management and operation and maintenance of pollution control facilities, hazardous waste or Superfund sites and military bases. In addition, we contract with U.S. governmental entities to destroy hazardous materials, including chemical agents and weapons stockpiles. These activities may require us to manage, handle, remove, treat, transport and dispose of toxic or hazardous substances. We must comply with a number of governmental laws that strictly regulate the handling, removal, treatment, transportation and disposal of toxic and hazardous substances. Under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act or CERCLA and comparable state laws, we may be required to investigate and remediate regulated materials. CERCLA and comparable state laws typically impose strict, joint and several liabilities without regard to whether a company knew of or caused the release of hazardous substances. The liability for the entire cost of clean-up can be imposed upon any responsible party. Other principal federal environmental, health and safety laws affecting us include, but are not limited, to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act or RCRA, the National Environmental Policy Act, the Clean Air Act, the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the Toxic Substances Control Act and the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act. Our business operations may also be subject to similar state and international laws relating to environmental protection. In addition, so-called “toxic tort” litigation has increased markedly in recent years as people injured by hazardous substances seek recovery for personal injuries and/or property damages. Liabilities related to environmental contamination or human exposure to hazardous substances, or a failure to comply with applicable regulations could result in substantial costs to us, including clean-up costs, fines and civil or criminal sanctions, third party claims for property damage or personal injury or cessation of remediation activities.
Changes in environmental laws, regulations and programs could reduce demand for our environmental services, which could in turn negatively impact our revenues.
Our environmental services business is driven by federal, state, local and foreign laws, regulations and programs related to pollution and environmental protection. Accordingly, a relaxation or repeal of these laws and regulations, or changes in governmental policies regarding the funding, implementation or
51
enforcement of these programs, could result in a decline in demand for environmental services, which could in turn negatively impact our revenues.
Our liability for damages due to legal proceedings may significantly reduce or eliminate our profits.
Various legal proceedings are pending against us in connection with the performance of our professional services and other actions by us, the outcome of which cannot be predicted with certainty. For example, in performing our services we may be exposed to cost overruns, personal injuries, property damage, labor shortages or disputes, weather problems and unforeseen engineering, architectural, environmental and geological problems. In some actions, parties are seeking damages that exceed our insurance coverage or are not insured. Our services may require us to make judgments and recommendations about environmental, structural and other physical conditions at project sites. If our performance, judgments and recommendations are later found to be incomplete or incorrect, then we may be liable for the resulting damages. If we sustain damages that exceed our insurance coverage or that are not insured, there could be a material adverse effect on our profits.
A general decline in U.S. defense spending could harm our operations and significantly reduce our future revenues.
Revenues under contracts with the U.S. Department of Defense and other defense-related entities represented approximately 35% of our total revenues for the six months ended July 1, 2005. While spending authorization for defense-related programs has increased significantly in recent years due to greater homeland security and foreign military commitments, as well as the trend to outsource federal government jobs to the private sector, these spending levels may not be sustainable. Future levels of expenditures and authorizations for these programs may decrease, remain constant or shift to programs in areas where we do not currently provide services. As a result, a general decline in U.S. defense spending could harm our operations and significantly reduce our future revenues.
Our overall market share will decline if we are unable to compete successfully in our industry.
Our industry is highly fragmented and intensely competitive. Our competitors are numerous, ranging from small private firms to multi-billion dollar public companies. In addition, the technical and professional aspects of our services generally do not require large upfront capital expenditures and provide limited barriers against new competitors. Some of our competitors have achieved greater market penetration in some of the markets in which we compete and have substantially more financial resources and/or financial flexibility than we do. These competitive forces could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations by reducing our relative share in the markets we serve.
Our failure to attract and retain key employees could impair our ability to provide services to our clients and otherwise conduct our business effectively.
As a professional and technical services company, we are labor intensive and therefore our ability to attract, retain and expand our senior management and our professional and technical staff is an important factor in determining our future success. From time to time, it may be difficult to attract and retain qualified individuals with the expertise demanded by our clients. For example, some of our government contracts may require us to employ only individuals who have particular government security clearance levels. In addition, we rely heavily upon the expertise and leadership of our senior management. The failure to attract and retain key individuals could impair our ability to provide services to our clients and conduct our business effectively.
52
Recent changes in accounting for equity-related compensation could impact our financial statements and our ability to attract and retain key employees.
On December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (Revised), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”). Adoption of SFAS 123(R) will require us to record an expense for our equity-related compensation plans using a fair value method. SFAS 123(R) will be effective for us at the beginning of our next fiscal year. We are currently evaluating which transition method we will use upon adoption of SFAS 123(R) and the potential impacts adoption could have on our compensation plans. SFAS 123(R) will impact our financial statements and could impact our ability to attract and retain key employees.
Our international operations are subject to a number of risks that could harm our operations and significantly reduce our future revenues.
As a multinational company, we have operations in over 20 countries and we derived approximately 10% and 9% of our revenues from international operations for the six months ended July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2004, respectively. International business is subject to a variety of risks, including:
| • | | lack of developed legal systems to enforce contractual rights; |
|
| • | | greater risk of uncollectible accounts and longer collection cycles; |
|
| • | | currency fluctuations; |
|
| • | | logistical and communication challenges; |
|
| • | | potentially adverse changes in laws and regulatory practices, including export license requirements, trade barriers, tariffs and tax laws; |
|
| • | | changes in labor conditions; |
|
| • | | exposure to liability under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and export control and anti-boycott laws; and |
|
| • | | general economic and political conditions in these foreign markets. |
These and other risks associated with international operations could harm our overall operations and significantly reduce our future revenues. In addition, services billed through foreign subsidiaries are attributed to the international category of our business, regardless of where the services are performed and conversely, services billed through domestic operating subsidiaries are attributed to a domestic category of clients, regardless of where the services are performed. As a result, our international risk exposure may be more or less than the percentage of revenues attributed to our international operations.
Our business activities may require our employees to travel to and work in high security risk countries, which may result in employee injury, repatriation costs or other unforeseen costs.
As a multinational company, our employees often travel to and work in high security risk countries around the world that are undergoing political, social and economic upheavals resulting in war, civil unrest, criminal activity or acts of terrorism. For example, we have employees working in Iraq, a high security risk country with substantial civil unrest and acts of terrorism. As a result, we may be subject to costs related to employee injury, repatriation or other unforeseen circumstances.
53
If we are not able to successfully develop, integrate or maintain third party support for our Enterprise Resource Program (“ERP”) system in a timely manner, we may incur unexpected costs that could harm our results of operations, including the possibility of abandoning our current ERP system and migrating to another ERP system.
We utilize accounting and project management information systems developed by Oracle Corporation. As of July 1, 2005, approximately 62% of our total revenues were processed on this ERP system. We depend on the vendor to develop, integrate and provide long-term software maintenance support for our ERP system. As a result of Oracle Corporation’s acquisition of PeopleSoft, Inc. in January 2005, it is possible that Oracle may discontinue further development, integration or long-term software maintenance support for our ERP system.
Accordingly, we are re-evaluating the conversion of the EG&G Division’s accounting systems to the ERP system. In the event we do not successfully complete the development and integration of our ERP system or are unable to obtain necessary long-term third party software maintenance support, we may be required to incur unexpected costs that could harm our results of operations, including the possibility of abandoning our current ERP system and migrating all of our accounting and project management information systems to another ERP system.
If our goodwill or intangible assets become impaired, then our profits may be significantly reduced or eliminated.
Because we have grown through acquisitions, goodwill and other intangible assets represent a substantial portion of our assets. Goodwill and other purchased intangible assets were approximately $1.0 billion as of July 1, 2005. Our balance sheet includes goodwill and other intangible assets, the values of which are material. If any of our goodwill or intangible assets were to become impaired, we would be required to write-off the impaired amount, which may significantly reduce or eliminate our profits.
Negotiations with labor unions and possible work actions could divert management attention and disrupt operations. In addition, new collective bargaining agreements or amendments to agreements could increase our labor costs and operating expenses.
As of July 1, 2005, approximately 7% of our employees were covered by collective bargaining agreements. The outcome of any future negotiations relating to union representation or collective bargaining agreements may not be favorable to us. We may reach agreements in collective bargaining that increase our operating expenses and lower our net income as a result of higher wages or benefits expenses. In addition, negotiations with unions could divert management attention and disrupt operations, which may adversely affect our results of operations. If we are unable to negotiate acceptable collective bargaining agreements, we may have to address the threat of union-initiated work actions, including strikes. Depending on the nature of the threat or the type and duration of any work action, these actions could disrupt our operations and adversely affect our operating results.
Delaware law and our charter documents may impede or discourage a takeover, which could cause the market price of our shares to decline.
We are a Delaware corporation and the anti-takeover provisions of Delaware law impose various impediments to the ability of a third party to acquire control of us, even if a change in control would be beneficial to our existing stockholders. In addition, our board of directors has the power, without stockholder approval, to designate the terms of one or more series of preferred stock and issue shares of preferred stock, which could be used defensively if a takeover is threatened. Our incorporation under Delaware law, the ability of our board of directors to create and issue a new series of preferred stock and certain provisions in our certificate of incorporation and by-laws could impede a merger, takeover or other business combination
54
involving us or discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer for our common stock, which could reduce the market price of our common stock.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to changes in interest rates as a result of our borrowings under our New Credit Facility. Based on outstanding indebtedness of $340.0 million under our New Credit Facility at July 1, 2005, if market rates average 1% higher in the next twelve months, our net of tax interest expense would increase by approximately $2.7 million. Conversely, if market rates average 1% lower in the next twelve months, our net of tax interest expense would decrease by approximately $2.7 million.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are responsible for establishing and maintaining “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) for our company. Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were sufficiently effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules.
Under current SEC rules we are not yet required to complete the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 (“Section 404”). In 2004, the SEC deferred, for one year, the implementation of Section 404 for qualifying companies with fiscal years ending prior to November 15, 2004. Because our previous fiscal year ended on October 31, 2004, we qualified for the deferral. On November 30, 2004, our Board of Directors approved a change in our future fiscal year end from October 31 to the Friday closest to December 31. Thus, our initial Section 404 reporting will be a required component of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year that will end on December 30, 2005.
(b)Changes in internal controls.
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended July 1, 2005 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
(c)Limitations on the effectiveness of controls. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving these objectives, and our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer believe that these controls and procedures are effective at the “reasonable assurance” level.
PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Various legal proceedings are pending against us and certain of our subsidiaries alleging, among other things, breach of contract or tort in connection with the performance of professional services, the outcome of which cannot be predicted with certainty. See Note 5, “Commitments and Contingencies” for a discussion of some of these legal proceedings. In some actions, parties are seeking damages, including punitive or treble damages that substantially exceed our insurance coverage.
55
Currently, we have limits of $125 million per loss and $125 million in the aggregate annually for general liability, professional errors and omissions liability and contractor’s pollution liability insurance (in addition to other policies for some specific projects). These policies include self-insured claim retention amounts of $4.0 million, $7.5 million and $7.5 million, respectively. In some actions, parties are seeking damages, including punitive or treble damages that substantially exceed our insurance coverage or are not insured.
Excess limits provided for these coverages are on a “claims made” basis, covering only claims actually made during the policy period currently in effect. Thus, if we do not continue to maintain these policies, we will have no coverage for claims made after the termination date – even for claims based on events that occurred during the term of coverage. We intend to maintain these policies; however, we may be unable to maintain existing coverage levels. We have maintained insurance without lapse for many years with limits in excess of losses sustained.
Although the outcome of our legal proceedings can not be predicted with certainty and no assurances can be provided, based on our previous experience in such matters, we do not believe that any of the legal proceedings described above, individually or collectively, are likely to exceed established loss accruals or our various professional errors and omissions, project-specific and potentially other insurance policies. However, the resolution of outstanding claims and litigation is subject to inherent uncertainty and it is reasonably possible that such resolution could have an adverse effect on us.
