St. Louis, MO - October 29, 2014 - Aegion Corporation (Nasdaq Global Select Market: AEGN) today reported financial results for the third quarter and first nine months of 2014. For the third quarter, Aegion reported a loss from continuing operations of $16.9 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, compared to income from continuing operations of $14.5 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2013. Pre-tax restructuring and impairment related charges totaled $40.0 million in the third quarter of 2014. Excluding the pre-tax restructuring and impairment related charges in the third quarter of 2014 and acquisition-related expenses in the prior year quarter, non-GAAP¹ income from continuing operations was $16.1 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2014 compared to $17.0 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, for the prior year quarter.

The results in the third quarter of 2013 included $2.8 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, of earnout reversals, and $1.7 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, from equity earnings of Bayou Coatings, L.L.C, Aegion’s pipeline coating joint venture, which was sold on March 31, 2014.

¹ Reconciliation of all GAAP to non-GAAP financial results in this release begins on page 6 and pages 11 to 14. Consolidated third quarter 2014 non-GAAP results exclude pre-tax restructuring and impairment related charges summarized on page 2. 2014 year-to-date non-GAAP EPS excludes: (i) the previously mentioned pre-tax restructuring and impairment related charges; (ii) $0.5 million pre-tax, or $0.01 per diluted share, for acquisition-related expenses; and (iii) $0.5 million pre-tax, or $0.01 per diluted share, of expense recorded in connection with the March 31, 2014 sale of the Company’s 49% interest in Bayou Coating, L.L.C., recorded in “Other income (expense)” on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

For the first nine months of 2014, Aegion reported GAAP income from continuing operations of $0.4 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, compared to income from continuing operations of $36.3 million, or $0.93 per diluted share, in the prior year period. Excluding pre-tax restructuring and impairment related charges and acquisition-related expenses, non-GAAP income from continuing operations for the first nine months of 2014 totaled $34.0 million, or $0.89 per diluted share, compared to $34.0 million, or $0.87 per diluted share, for the first nine months of 2013.

The results in the first nine months of 2013 included the earnout reversal mentioned above and $3.9 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, from equity earnings of affiliated companies related to Bayou Coatings, L.L.C.

Charles R. Gordon, Aegion’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Third quarter performance was in line with our updated 2014 outlook announced in early October. We have the necessary backlog to finish the year in line with revised earnings guidance of $1.27 to $1.37 per diluted share. The realignment effort currently underway will position Aegion to better serve our clients through a more integrated sales strategy, realize significant cost savings and allow management to focus more attention on areas with opportunities for sustainable growth. The diversity of our end markets buffers the effect of market cycles and periods of commodity price volatility. Our current view is that the expected demand for the maintenance services offered by Corrpro, United Pipeline Systems and Brinderson for midstream pipeline infrastructure and downstream refineries remains favorable. For a smaller part of the overall business, we are assessing the impact of lower oil prices on new pipeline infrastructure projects. We also are engaged in a comprehensive planning process for 2015 that is focused on assessing all of the end markets we serve, and further improving our project execution capabilities. Fundamentally, we believe Aegion has a solid foundation for organic growth, with significantly improved results expected across all three platforms in 2015.”

Realignment and Restructuring Plan

On October 6, 2014, the Company announced a strategic Realignment and Restructuring Plan consisting of the following:

• Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2014, realign the reporting segments by combining Commercial and Structural and Water and Wastewater to form the Infrastructure Solution segment; form the Energy Services segment consisting of Brinderson; and create the Corrosion Protection segment with the remaining Energy and Mining businesses.

• Exit Insituform’s contracting operations in France, Switzerland, India, Hong Kong, Malaysia and Singapore.

• Optimize Bayou’s coating facilities in Louisiana, including the shutdown of under-utilized coating plants, to improve operating efficiencies and reduce costs.

In the third quarter of 2014, the Company recorded certain pre-tax charges of $40.0 million ($33.0 million after-tax, or $0.88 per diluted share) related to the strategic Realignment and Restructuring Plan. All of the charges recorded during the third quarter of 2014 were non-cash and consisted of the following:

• $17.8 million associated with the write-down or write-off of tangible assets primarily related to Insituform’s contracting activities in France, Switzerland, India, Hong Kong, Malaysia and Singapore.

2

• $11.3 million associated with the write-down of fixed assets and $10.9 million associated with the write-off of definite-lived intangibles as a result of impairment of certain assets at Bayou’s operations in Louisiana.

In addition, the Company reviewed goodwill for impairment at the Bayou, Europe and Asia reporting units and determined that adjustments to the carrying value of these assets were not necessary based on the results of the impairment test.

The effective tax rate on all pre-tax restructuring and impairment related charges for the third quarter was 17.3 percent, which reflects the non-deductibility of certain charges, along with the impact of valuation allowances of deferred tax assets due to the likely inability to generate future taxable income to recover tax losses. Also included are the estimated tax impacts of write-downs of certain inter-company loans not expected to be recovered from the operations being restructured.

The Company expects cash charges of $15 million to $18 million to be incurred from the fourth quarter of 2014 through the third quarter of 2015 for employee severance, extension of benefits, employment assistance programs and other costs associated with the restructuring. Additional non-cash charges related to the various restructured operations could potentially be recorded between the fourth quarter of 2014 and the third quarter of 2015.

The strategic Realignment and Restructuring Plan is expected to generate annual savings of $8 to $11 million, or $0.15 to $0.20 per diluted share, on a GAAP basis, with $0.03 to $0.04 per diluted share expected to be recognized in the fourth quarter of 2014.

Management is currently conducting a further evaluation of certain legal matters, which may result in litigation reserves related to outstanding receivables. Any such litigation reserve would be outside of the Company’s current non-GAAP earnings per share guidance.

Consolidated Highlights

Third Quarter 2014 versus Third Quarter 2013

(Excluding pre-tax restructuring and impairment related charges in the current quarter and acquisition-related expenses in the prior year quarter)

Consolidated revenues increased $42.5 million, or 13.8 percent, to $350.1 million. Energy and Mining revenues increased 17.1 percent, or $28.8 million, to $197.5 million. Brinderson reported record billable hours in the downstream segment which resulted in a $29.4 million, or 61.3 percent, increase in revenue. Corrpro grew revenues double digits on the strength of its Canadian business and a record backlog position. Bayou increased revenues approximately 30 percent due to strong performance in Canada and the successful completion of several small projects at the Louisiana pipe coating facility. United Pipeline Systems and CRTS each reported revenue declines as a result of project delays and lower backlog in certain geographies. Water and Wastewater revenue increased 11.1 percent, or $13.5 million, to $135.6 million. Insituform’s North American business grew revenues mid-teens to a record quarterly high, offsetting a modest revenue decline from the Asia-Pacific business.

Consolidated gross profit increased $9.5 million, or 13.6 percent, to $78.9 million. Energy and Mining gross profit increased 9.7 percent, or $3.6 million, to $40.7 million. However, Energy and Mining gross margins contracted by 140 basis points to 20.6 percent. A greater mix of lower margin downstream revenues for Brinderson and cathodic protection construction installation activities for Corrpro were the primary reasons for the margin reduction. A revenue decline from the higher margin United Pipeline Systems and CRTS businesses was another contributing factor. Water and Wastewater increased gross profit by $3.8 million, or 14.5 percent, to $30.3 million due to strong revenue growth in North America,

3

which resulted in the highest gross margin percentage since 2010. Commercial and Structural gross profit was $7.8 million, an increase of $2.0 million or 34.7 percent, primarily due to growth in the Asian business, along with improved project execution in the North American operation. Commercial and Structural gross margins were 46.2 percent in the quarter compared to 34.6 percent in the prior year quarter.

Consolidated operating expenses increased 10.2 percent, or $4.9 million, to $52.9 million. Energy and Mining operating expenses increased $3.4 million, or 13.8 percent, to $28.2 million due to investments made to enhance sales and business development activities and to expand in the Middle East market. Water and Wastewater reported a $1.7 million, or 10.1 percent, increase in operating expenses primarily due to project execution investments. Commercial and Structural operating expenses declined $0.2 million, or 2.5 percent, from cost management efforts after the investments were made to reestablish growth in the North American business. As a percentage of consolidated sales, operating expenses decreased 50 basis points to 15.1 percent. Water and Wastewater, Commercial and Structural and Energy and Mining segments reduced operating expense to sales by 10 basis points, 140 basis points and 40 basis points, respectively, as a result of strong revenue growth and cost management efforts.

Consolidated operating income increased $1.7 million, or 7.1 percent, to $26.0 million. Water and Wastewater and Commercial and Structural segments each increased operating income by $2.2 million to $12.3 million and $1.3 million, respectively. Operating income for Energy and Mining declined $2.7 million to $12.5 million.

Cash Flow

Net cash flow provided by continuing operations for the first nine months of 2014 was $8.7 million compared to $41.6 million provided in the first nine months of 2013. The reduction in operating cash flow compared to 2013 was primarily due to a significant increase in revenues booked in September, which increased trade receivable by over $38 million compared to the second quarter of 2014. The Company expects to collect a significant portion of these receivables in the fourth quarter, which is typically the largest for cash collections.

Net cash flow used by investing activities in the first nine months of 2014 was $16.9 million, compared to $144.2 million in the first nine months of 2013, as a result of the $150 million acquisition of Brinderson on July 1, 2013. Capital expenditures in the first nine months of 2014 were $25.1 million compared to $20.1 million in the first nine months of 2013. The increase was due to the addition of Brinderson and more maintenance capital to support Insituform’s growing North American business. On March 31, 2014, the Company sold 49% ownership interest in Bayou Coating, L.L.C. for $9.1 million following the majority partner’s exercise of its buy-out right. On June 30, 2013, the Company received $18.3 million in connection with the sale of the Company’s 50 percent interest in its German joint venture.

Net cash flows from financing activities used $27.2 million during the first nine months of 2014 compared to $112.7 million provided in the first nine months of 2013. During the first nine months of 2014, the Company used $31.1 million to repurchase 1,333,690 shares of common stock through open market purchases and in connection with the Company’s equity compensation programs, as compared to $19.0 million to repurchase 833,552 shares of common stock in the first nine months of 2013. During the first nine months of 2014, the Company made scheduled principal payments on its long-term debt of $15.5 million. During the first nine months of 2013, the Company entered into a new credit facility and borrowed $147.6 million to fund the purchase of Brinderson and used $5.0 million for facility financing

4

fees. Additionally, the Company used cash of $16.9 million to pay down the principal balance of the term loans associated with the credit facility.

Net cash flow for the first nine months of 2014 was an outflow of $42.1 million compared to an outflow of $7.0 million in the first nine months of 2013.

_________________________________

⁽¹⁾  September 30, 2014, June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013 included backlog from Brinderson of $219.3 million, $248.1 million, $268.3 million and $209.2 million, respectively. Brinderson backlog represents expected revenues to be realized under long-term Master Service Agreements (“MSAs”) and other signed contracts. If the remaining term of these arrangements exceeds 12 months, the unrecognized revenues attributable to such arrangements included in backlog are limited to only the next 12 months of expected revenues.

September 30, 2014 versus September 30, 2013

Energy and Mining segment contract backlog increased 9.1 percent to $419.7 million. Corrpro achieved record backlog. CRTS was awarded $30 million for projects in Chile and the Middle East. Backlog for Bayou increased significantly, despite the third quarter cancellation of a $34 million onshore pipe coating project in the United States included in June 30, 2014 backlog, because of increased project activity in Canada. Backlog for United Pipeline Systems declined due to the completion of the large Moroccan project in late 2013, a slowdown in the international mining market and delays in typical work releases in the United States that are anticipated to be awarded in the fourth quarter. The decline was partially offset by increased project activity in the Canadian market. Brinderson’s backlog increased 4.9 percent to $219.3 million as a result of new multi-year maintenance contracts awarded at the end of 2013. This added $70 million of incremental annual revenues, offset by $70 to $80 million in pending maintenance contract renewals that are not included in September 30, 2014 backlog that will likely be determined in the fourth quarter (such contracts were included in September 30, 2013 reported backlog). Energy and Mining backlog as of September 30, 2014 compared to June 30, 2014 declined $43.8 million, or 9.4 percent, because of the large Bayou pipe coating contract cancellation and pending awards for Brinderson.

Contract backlog for Water and Wastewater increased $7.3 million, or 2.6 percent, to $292.0 million. The North American market continues to benefit from solid municipal spending as backlog increased 7.1 percent. As expected, backlog in the international markets declined compared to the prior year and the second quarter of 2014 as Aegion proceeds with the strategic Realignment and Restructuring Plan, which includes exiting contract markets in France, Switzerland, India, Hong Kong, Malaysia and Singapore. Compared to June 30, 2014, backlog declined $25.3 million, or 8.0 percent, because of strong North America revenue growth resulting in higher book-to-bill in the third quarter and the decline in the international contracting backlog.

Commercial and Structural contract backlog declined $8.0 million, or 16.6 percent, to $40.2 million. The

5

decline in backlog reflects improved project activity and the inherent quick book-to-bill aspect of the business. In Asia, backlog remains at a high level primarily from strong activity in Hong Kong and Singapore.

Third Quarter 2014 versus Third Quarter 2013

(Excluding pre-tax restructuring and impairment related charges in the current quarter and acquisition-related expenses in the prior year quarter)

Energy and Mining operating income decreased $2.7 million, or 17.6 percent, to $12.5 million largely attributable to soft market conditions in several of United Pipeline System’s international markets, delayed work releases in the United States and the completion of the large Morocco project in 2013 with no comparable contribution during the third quarter of 2014. Corrpro experienced lower gross margins as a result of a higher proportion of construction-related cathodic protection installation activities. Production on the CRTS/Wasit project proceeded more slowly than during the prior year period. Offsetting these decreases were operating income growth from Brinderson and a small profit from Bayou’s operations in Canada and Louisiana.

Third Quarter 2014 versus Third Quarter 2013

(Excluding pre-tax restructuring and impairment related charges in the current quarter)

Water and Wastewater grew operating income by $2.2 million, or 21.8 percent, to $12.3 million. This success is the product of greater workable backlog, improved gross margins and project cost estimating, improved bidding discipline and a continued focus on overall project management.

Third Quarter 2014 versus Third Quarter 2013

Commercial and Structural operating income increased $2.2 million, or 239.4 percent, due to strong project execution in the North American and Asian businesses and a small decrease in operating expense. The improved project execution in North America was the result of investments made in 2013 and 2014 to enhance operations and project management. Third quarter 2014 operating results improved $1.0 million from the second quarter of 2014, marking the fourth consecutive quarter of improved operating income.

The non-GAAP earnings per share in 2014 exclude the write-down of long-lived assets, the write-off of definite-lived intangible asset impairments, acquisition-related expenses and the loss on sale of our 49 percent interest in Bayou Coating, L.L.C. The non-GAAP earnings per share in 2013 exclude the earnings impact of acquisition-related expenses, the gain related to the sale of our German joint venture, charges associated with our decision to liquidate Bayou Welding Works and a goodwill write-off associated with the sale of our interest in Bayou Coating, L.L.C. Aegion management uses such non-GAAP information internally to evaluate financial performance for our operations, as we believe it allows us to more accurately compare our ongoing performance across periods.
