URS Acquisition of EG&G
Strategic Rationale
• | | The transaction will increase URS’ ability to participate in the rapidly growing Federal outsourcing market |
| • | | Top-line Department of Defense spending is projected to rise over $48 billion to a total of $379 billion in FY03, with spending allocations in outsourcing categories increasing to a record level of $150 billion |
|
| • | | Growth in the Federal outsourcing market is being driven by a number of factors, including |
|
| | | – Increased spending on national defense |
|
| | | – Increased spending on homeland security |
|
| | | – Government efficiency initiatives |
|
| | | – Continuing impact of procurement reform |
• | | The combination of URS and EG&G will create a top-tier Federal government business with the scale necessary to permit the company to compete effectively in today’s marketplace |
| • | | Expected aggregate Federal revenue of the combined enterprise of approximately $1.3 billion will exceed the revenues of all but one of the publicly traded companies that provide Federal outsourcing as a primary line of business(1) |
|
| • | | The combined company will be able to bid for and execute programs that neither EG&G nor URS could undertake on a standalone basis |
• | | The transaction will increase URS’ profile as a professional services firm by integrating its pre-construction consulting, planning and design expertise with EG&G’s post-construction operations and maintenance strengths, bypassing the low-margin/high-risk construction segment of the value chain |
| • | | With 40% of its revenues from the Federal government, URS believes the combined company should have the opportunity to achieve a valuation of its Federal outsourcing business which is more in line with the valuations of the publicly traded Federal outsourcing peer group companies(1) which on average trade at significantly higher multiples of earnings and EBITDA than URS has historically traded |
(1) | | This peer group of companies includes ManTech International (MANT), Anteon International (ANT), Titan Corp. (TTN), CACI International (CACI), SRA International (SRX), PEC Solutions (PECS), Tier Technologies (TIER) and Dynamics Research (DRCO). |

URS Acquisition of EG&G
Financial Implications of the Transaction
• | | The transaction values EG&G at 10x EG&G’s projected 2002 EBITDA |
|
• | | The transaction values EG&G at 7.7x the sum of EG&G’s projected 2002 EBITDA plus expected pre-tax cost synergies of $15 million |
|
• | | These multiples compare favorably to the public market multiples for Federal outsourcing companies, including the current multiples of the two public companies believed by URS to be the most comparable to EG&G(1): |
| | | | | | | | |
Company (Symbol) | | 2002 EBITDA Multiple(2) | | 2003 P/E Multiple(2) |
| |
| |
|
Anteon International (ANT) | | | 12.8x | | | | 19.6x | |
|
ManTech International (MANT) | | | 12.0x | | | | 22.3x | |
• | | URS projects that the combined net income of the company, assuming the transaction closes in the fourth quarter of FY2002, will be approximately $100 million for FY2003 and approximately $110 million for FY 2004 |
|
• | | Assuming the issuance of 6.3 million fully diluted shares in the transaction, earnings per share for the combined enterprise are projected to be approximately $3.00 for FY 2003, and approximately $3.20 for FY 2004 |
| • | | The actual number of fully diluted common shares issued will vary based on the average URS closing stock price during the 20 trading days preceding the closing (the “Closing Price”). At Closing Prices below $24.78, the fully diluted number of shares increases to provide the sellers with equivalent stock value, to a maximum of 7.7 million fully diluted common shares |
(1) | | Other public comparables include: Titan Corp. (TTN), CACI International (CACI), SRA International (SRX), PEC Solutions (PECS), Tier Technologies (TIER) and Dynamics Research (DRCO). |
|
|
|
|
(2) | | EBITDA and P/E multiples based on closing share prices on 7/23/02. EBITDA multiple for Anteon based on EBITDA estimate from Credit Suisse First Boston research report dated 4/10/02; EBITDA multiple for ManTech based on EBITDA estimate from Jefferies & Company research report dated 7/2/02. P/E multiples based on First Call consensus estimates as of 7/23/02. |

URS Acquisition of EG&G
Expected Synergies
• | | Prior to the transaction, EG&G management was in the process of consolidating EG&G Technical Services and Lear Siegler Services, a restructuring which is expected to produce approximately $1.7 million in annual pre-tax cost savings |
|
• | | Additional pre-tax cost savings from the URS/EG&G combination are expected to generate further cost synergies aggregating approximately $15 million pre-tax from the following areas: |
| • | | Bulk Purchasing |
|
| • | | Employee Benefits/HR |
|
| • | | Accounting |
|
| • | | Information Technology |
|
| • | | Facilities |
|
| • | | Marketing |
|
| • | | Corporate Overhead |
• | | Expected synergies equate to less than 0.5% of the companies’ projected combined 2003E total costs and expenses of approximately $3.1 billion |
|
• | | URS also expects to generate revenue synergies over time, but has not factored any such benefits into its analysis |
