Analysis · FLR · Real Estate & Construction
A strong Q2 beat saw revenue reach $4.3 billion and adjusted EPS hit $0.91, both topping consensus. New awards surged to $6.1 billion, pushing backlog to $26.9 billion. Yet the full-year adjusted EBITDA outlook was narrowed to $500-$525 million, as the $175 million divestiture of the Mexico JV removed its contribution. While the beat and robust backlog point to healthy demand, the guidance cut tempers the outlook.
