JACOBS ENGINEERING GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2000 7. On February 16, 2000, the Company completed the first phase of an anticipated two-part transaction to acquire the engineering and contracting business of Stork N.V., the Netherlands ("Stork") for a total purchase price of EUR 25.0 million (approximately $24.2 million). The purchase price was financed in part by long-term borrowings of EUR 15.0 million (approximately $14.8 million) under an existing $230.0 million revolving credit facility. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase. Accordingly, the Company's consolidated results of operations include those of Stork since the date of acquisition. The first phase includes Stork's operations in Belgium, Germany, Southeast Asia and certain offices in the Netherlands. These offices employ over 1,500 professional technical staff. The second phase, involving the balance of Stork's engineering and construction operations in the Netherlands and the Middle East, is expected to close at a later date. In January 1999, the Company completed its Agreement and Plan of Merger with Sverdrup Corporation ("Sverdrup"). Each outstanding share of common stock of Sverdrup was converted into the right to receive a proportional share of the total amount of initial merger consideration of $198.0 million paid at closing. Each outstanding share of common stock of Sverdrup will also receive a proportional amount of any additional merger consideration that may be payable shortly after each of the first three anniversaries of the date of the merger agreement ("Deferred Merger Consideration"), and is contingent upon the Company's stock price exceeding certain price thresholds as defined in the merger agreement. The total amount payable as Deferred Merger Consideration is limited to a maximum of $31.0 million. The amount payable as Deferred Merger Consideration on January 14, 2001, the second anniversary of the date of the merger agreement was immaterial. No amount was payable as Deferred Merger Consideration on January 14, 2000, the first anniversary of the date of the merger agreement. For more information about the Stork and Sverdrup transactions, readers of this Form 10-Q should refer to Note 3 to the Company's 2000 Consolidated Financial Statements included as Exhibit 13 to its 2000 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

JACOBS ENGINEERING GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES December 31, 2000 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. General - ------- The following discussion should be read in conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (incorporated by reference from pages E-5 through E-12 of Exhibit 13 to the Company's 2000 Annual Report on Form 10-K). Results of Operations - --------------------- On February 16, 2000, the Company completed the first phase of an anticipated two-part transaction to acquire the engineering and contracting business of Stork N.V., the Netherlands ("Stork") for a total purchase price of EUR 25.0 million (approximately $24.2 million). The Company's consolidated results of operations for fiscal 2000 include the results of Stork's operations since the acquisition date. The Company's consolidated results of operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 are not significantly impacted by Stork's operations. See Note 7 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion of the Stork transaction. The Company recorded net earnings of $20.1 million, or $0.75 per diluted share, for the three months ended December 31, 2000, compared to a net loss of $5.8 million, or $0.22 per diluted share for the same period last year. The net loss during the first quarter of fiscal 2000 included a pre-tax provision for litigation settlement of $38.0 million ($23.7 million after-tax). This special, one-time pre-tax charge, consisting of the settlement amount of $35.0 million and related litigation costs of $3.0 million, resulted from an agreement with the United States Department of Justice to settle a previously disclosed whistleblower suit. The settlement was paid in March 2000 and has no continuing impact on the Company's operating results. Excluding the after-tax impact of this special litigation charge, the Company's operations during the first quarter of fiscal 2000 resulted in net earnings of $18.0 million, or $0.68 per diluted share. During the three months ended December 31, 2000, total revenues increased by $120.1 million, or 14.8%, to $929.2 million, compared to $809.1 million for the same period in fiscal 2000. Revenues from project services activities, which includes design, engineering and agency construction management services, increased by $125.2 million, or 30.0%, to $542.5 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2001, compared to $417.3 million for the same period last year. Page 10
Revenues from construction services decreased by $7.7 million, or 3.3%, to $229.0 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2001, compared to $236.7 million for the same period last year. During the first quarter of fiscal 2001, revenues from operations and maintenance ("O&M") activities were relatively flat at $128.7 million, compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2000. Revenues from process, scientific and systems consulting services increased by $2.2 million, or 8.1%, to $28.9 million during the three months ended December 31, 2000, compared to $26.8 million for the same period last year. As a percentage of revenues, direct costs of contracts was 87.9% for the three months ended December 31, 2000, compared to 87.2% for the same period in fiscal 2000. The percentage relationship between direct costs of contracts and revenues will fluctuate between reporting periods depending on a variety of factors including the mix of business during the reporting periods being compared, as well as the level of margins earned from the various types of services provided by the Company. Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 increased by $5.8 million, or 7.8%, to $79.5 million, compared to $73.7 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2000. As a percentage of revenues, SG&A expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 decreased to 8.6%, compared to 9.1% for the same period last year, reflecting the Company's continuing efforts to control costs. During the three months ended December 31, 2000, the Company's operating profit (defined as revenues, less direct costs of contracts and SG&A expenses) increased by $3.2 million, or 10.5%, to $33.2 million, compared to $30.0 million during the three months ended December 31, 1999. The increase in the Company's operating profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2000 year was due primarily to significant increases in business volume and reduced SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenues. During the first quarter of fiscal 2001, interest expense increased by 44.8%, or $0.9 million, to $3.0 million, compared to interest expense of $2.1 million for the same period last year. The increase in interest expense in the current fiscal period as compared to last year was due to increased borrowings under the Company's $230.0 million revolving credit facility at slightly higher interest rates. At December 31, 2000 and 1999, outstanding borrowings under this facility were $135.3 million and $110.5 million, respectively. The net increase of $24.8 million in borrowings under the $230.0 million revolving credit facility was primarily due to borrowings in the second quarter of fiscal 2000 to pay the $35.0 million litigation settlement, to partially finance the first phase of the Stork acquisition for approximately $14.8 million, and to cover working capital requirements. Page 11
Backlog Information - ------------------- The following table summarizes the Company's backlog at December 31, 2000 and 1999 (in millions): 2000 1999 ----------- ------------ Professional technical services $ 2,380.0 $ 1,959.0 Total backlog 5,687.0 4,339.0 Liquidity and Capital Resources - ------------------------------- During the three months ended December 31, 2000, the Company's cash and cash equivalents increased by $14.3 million, to $80.2 million. This compares to a net increase of $1.7 million, to $55.2 million, during the same period in fiscal 2000. During the first quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company experienced net cash inflows from operating and investing activities, and the effect on cash of exchange rate changes, of $36.9 million, $4.6 million and $1.3 million, respectively, offset in part by net cash outflows from financing activities of $28.6 million. Operations resulted in net cash inflows of $36.9 million during the three months ended December 31, 2000. This compares to a net contribution of $22.2 million during the same period in fiscal 2000. The $14.7 million increase in cash provided by operations in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2000 was due primarily to an increase of $25.9 million in net earnings, partially offset by a decrease in inflows of $11.3 million relating to the timing of cash receipts and payments within the Company's working capital accounts. The Company's investing activities resulted in net cash inflows of $4.6 million during the three months ended December 31, 2000. This compares to net cash outflows of $10.1 million during the same period last year. The net decrease of $14.7 million in cash used for investing activities in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2000 was due primarily to a decrease of $12.1 million to net additions to property and equipment relating to the sale of real property, and a decrease of $2.9 million in other noncurrent assets. The Company's financing activities resulted in net cash outflows of $28.6 million during the three months ended December 31, 2000. This compares to net cash outflows of $8.4 million during the three months ended December 31, 1999. The $20.2 million net increase in cash used for financing activities in the current period as compared to last year was due primarily to a decrease of $14.5 million in short-term borrowings and an increase of $11.4 million in repayments of long-term borrowings. Also contributing to outflows was $2.2 million used for the purchases of common stock for treasury. These outflows were partially offset by an increase of $5.7 million in proceeds from long-term borrowings, which were used to cover working capital requirements. Page 12
The Company believes it has adequate capital resources to fund its operations in fiscal 2001 and beyond. The Company's consolidated working capital position was $190.0 million at December 31, 2000. As discussed earlier, the Company has a long-term $230.0 million revolving credit facility against which $135.3 million was outstanding at December 31, 2000 in the form of direct borrowings. At December 31, 2000, the Company had $46.8 million available through committed short-term credit facilities, of which $16.2 million was outstanding at that date in the form of direct borrowings and letters of credit. In December 1999, the Company reactivated its stock repurchase program. The program had been suspended in September 1998 due to the then pending merger with Sverdrup. The program authorizes the Company to buy-back up to 3.0 million shares of its common stock in the open market. Repurchases of common stock will be financed from existing credit facilities and available cash balances. Through the end of fiscal 2000, the Company had repurchased a total of 1,657,100 shares of its common stock at a total cost of $47.4 million. All of these treasury shares were eventually reissued for the Company's employee stock purchase and incentive stock plans. During the current quarter ended December 31, 2000, the Company repurchased an additional 53,800 shares of its common stock in the open market at a cost of $2.2 million. Forward-Looking Statements - -------------------------- Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not based on historical facts are "forward-looking statements", as that term is discussed in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on management's current estimates, expectations and projections about the issues discussed, the industries in which the Company's clients operate and the services the Company provides. By their nature, such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. The Company cautions the reader that a variety of factors could cause business conditions and results to differ materially from what is contained in its forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not necessarily limited to, the following: increase in competition by foreign and domestic competitors; availability of qualified engineers and other professional staff needed to execute contracts; the timing of new awards and the funding for such awards; the ability of the Company to meet performance or schedule guarantees; cost overruns on fixed, maximum or unit priced contracts; the outcome of pending and future litigation and governmental investigations and proceedings; the cyclical nature of the individual markets in which the Company's customers operate; the successful closing and/or subsequent integration of any merger or acquisition transaction; and, the amount of any contingent consideration the Company may be required to pay in the future in connection with the Sverdrup merger (including the availability of financing that may be required). The preceding list is not all-inclusive, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Readers of this Form 10-Q should also read the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for a further description of the Company's business, legal proceedings and other information that describes factors that could cause actual results to differ from such forward-looking statements.
