(1) The Company believes net service revenue (NSR) best reflects the value of services provided and is the most meaningful indicator of revenue performance.

(2) Excludes acquisition and integration expenses of $1.2 million and $2.1 million for the three- and six-month periods ended December 25, 2015.



Comments on the Results

"Overall, our business performed well. In particular, demand for electrical transmission and distribution services resulted in an 11% increase in Energy segment NSR, with segment profit up 17% year over year. In addition, transportation-related spending by our municipal and state clients drove a 26% increase in Infrastructure segment NSR, while project execution and cost control drove a 96% increase in segment profit. In our Environmental segment, a slowdown from certain oil and gas clients and the completion of a large pipeline permitting project led to a 2% decline in NSR and a profit decline of 6%. Even so, other service areas within the Environmental segment remain solid," said Vincze.



Business Outlook

“TRC is the national leader in the environmental permitting of pipeline projects. The acquisition of WPS represents the execution of our strategy to establish a premier pipeline and related facilities engineering, consulting and construction management capability. Now two months after closing, we have functionally integrated our two organizations, migrating the new business onto our payroll system, benefits, IT networks and ERP platform, while building the leading full-service pipeline consulting and engineering company in the nation,” Vincze added.

"Our strategic growth initiatives are progressing through the first half of fiscal 2016, as demonstrated by our results. Demand for our Energy segment services from our utility clients remains robust. Our Infrastructure segment backlog continues to grow, and the new transportation bill improves the outlook for this segment. Although we expect to see a slowdown from our oil and gas clients, services related to environmental remediation, construction, transaction support, the retirement of coal plants and the need to transport natural gas should contribute to revenue in our Environmental segment going forward. These factors and the need to ensure the integrity of our national pipeline infrastructure also should support our new Pipeline Services segment. We believe the oil and gas market is a good long-term investment, and we have positioned TRC to be a leader in this industry.”
