Pasadena, California. Tetra Tech, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTEK) today announced results for the second quarter ended March 31, 2013.
Second Quarter Results
Revenue in the quarter was $642.0 million compared to $624.3 million in the second quarter last year. Revenue, net of subcontractor costs(1), was $520.9 million, up 9.2% compared to $476.9 million in the second quarter last year. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA(2)), were $54.2 million, up 10.1% compared to $49.2 million in the second quarter last year. Operating income was $37.7 million, up 6.0% compared to $35.5 million in the second quarter last year. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) were $0.38, up 8.6% compared to $0.35 in the second quarter last year. Backlog was $2.03 billion compared to $2.03 billion at the end of the second quarter last year. Cash generated from operations was $44.3 million, up 33.8% compared to $33.1 million in the second quarter last year.
Six-Month Results
Revenue for the six-month period was $1.30 billion compared to $1.31 billion in the year-ago period. Revenue, net of subcontractor costs, was $1.02 billion, up 5.1% compared to $968.9 million in the year-ago period. EBITDA were $108.3 million, up 8.0% compared to $100.3 million in the year-ago period. Operating income was $79.5 million, up 10.9% compared to $71.6 million in the year-ago period. Diluted EPS were $0.78, up 9.9% compared to $0.71 in the year-ago period. Cash generated from operations was $62.0 million compared to $71.4 million in year-ago period.
Tetra Tech’s Chairman and CEO, Dan Batrack commented, “We generated second quarter results that were in-line with our expectations and guidance. We continue to experience strong demand for our water and environmental services from commercial clients, especially with our oil & gas customers. U.S. commercial and international clients now represent 59% of our net revenue.”
(1) Tetra Tech’s revenue includes a significant amount of subcontractor costs and, therefore, the Company believes revenue, net of subcontractor costs, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, provides a valuable perspective on its business results.
(2) EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company believes EBITDA is a useful representation of operating performance because of significant amounts of acquisition-related non-cash amortization expense. A table reconciling net income attributable to Tetra Tech to EBITDA can be found at the end of this release.

Forward-Looking Statements
This news release contains forward-looking statements that are subject to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include information concerning future events and the future financial performance of Tetra Tech that involve risks and uncertainties. Readers are cautioned that these forward-looking statements are only predictions and may differ materially from actual future events or results. Readers are urged to read the documents filed by Tetra Tech with the SEC, specifically the most recent reports on Form 10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K, each as it may be amended from time to time, which identify risk factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Among the important factors or risks that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements in this release are: worldwide political and economic uncertainties; the effect of the Budget Control Act of 2011; fluctuations in annual revenue, expenses and operating results; the cyclicality in demand for U.S. state and local government and U.S. commercial services; credit risks associated with certain U.S. commercial clients; concentration of revenues from U.S. government agencies and potential funding disruptions by these agencies; violations of U.S. government contractor regulations; dependence on winning or renewing U.S. federal, state and local government
contracts; the delay or unavailability of public funding on U.S. government contracts; the U.S. government’s right to modify, delay, curtail or terminate contracts at its convenience; risks associated with international operations; the failure to properly manage projects; the loss of key personnel or the inability to attract and retain qualified personnel; the use of estimates and assumptions in the preparation of financial statements; the ability to maintain adequate workforce utilization; the use of the percentage-of-completion method of accounting; the inability to accurately estimate contract risks, revenue and costs; the failure to win or renew contracts with private and public sector clients; acquisition strategy and integration risks; goodwill or other intangible asset impairment; growth strategy management; backlog cancellation and adjustments; the failure of partners to perform on joint projects; the failure of subcontractors to satisfy their obligations; requirements to pay liquidated damages based on contract performance; changes in resource management, environmental or infrastructure industry laws, regulations or programs; changes in capital markets and the access to capital; credit agreement covenants; industry competition; liability related to legal proceedings; the availability of third-party insurance coverage; the ability to obtain adequate bonding; employee, agent or partner misconduct; employee risks related to international travel; safety programs; conflict of interest issues; liabilities relating to reports and opinions; liabilities relating to environmental laws and regulations; force majeure events; protection of intellectual property rights; the interruption of computer, information and communications technology and systems; the ability to impede a business combination based on Delaware law and charter documents; and stock price volatility. Any projections in this release are based on limited information currently available to Tetra Tech, which is subject to change. Although any such projections and the factors influencing them will likely change, Tetra Tech will not necessarily update the information, since Tetra Tech will only provide guidance at certain points during the year.
