Comments on Segment Results

“Our Energy segment experienced a 3% decline in NSR and 9% decline in segment profit year over year, driven by delays related to a significant new project award and timing associated with the receipt of change orders,” Vincze continued. “In our Infrastructure segment, renewed transportation-related spending by our municipal and state clients drove a 10% increase in segment NSR on solid 20% margins. The 4% decline in segment profit was due to a significant change order awarded in the year-ago quarter. In our Environmental segment, the continued slowdown from certain oil and gas clients led to a 2% decline in NSR and a profit decline of 20% year-over-year.

“Our newest and fourth segment, Pipeline Services, has been affected by the downturn that has spread throughout the oil and gas sector,” Vincze said. “Pipeline services delivered NSR of $21.6 million and a segment loss of $3.1 million. We have undertaken a series of cost reduction initiatives with total annualized savings of approximately $15 million, in order to align segment expenses with current revenues in this business. We also incurred $1.6 million of acquisition integration expenses in Q3. In addition, given the steep

decline in near-term demand in the oil and gas sector, we incurred a non-cash goodwill impairment charge in the quarter associated with the Pipeline Services segment acquisition.”


Business Outlook

"We continue to believe in the long-term prospects for each of our segments. The underlying market fundamentals in our Energy segment remain strong, spurred by demand from our utility clients and activity on the energy efficiency and renewables fronts. Infrastructure segment backlog is healthy, driven by increased transportation spending at both the state and federal levels and a new federal transportation bill. Although we are experiencing a slowdown from our oil and gas clients in our Environmental segment, demand for services related to environmental remediation, construction, transaction support, the retirement of coal plants and the need to transport natural gas should contribute to segment revenue going forward. Despite the market constraints currently affecting our Pipeline Services segment, the long-term outlook is positive on the strength of domestic demand for energy, the need for comprehensive pipeline integrity management, an expected increase in U.S. fossil fuel exports and the transition from coal-fired power plants to natural gas.”

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this press release may be forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. You can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as "may," "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," or other words of similar import. You should consider statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss TRC’s future expectations, contain projections of the Company’s future results of operations or of its financial condition, or state other "forward-looking" information. TRC believes that it is important to communicate its future expectations to its investors. However, there may be events in the future that the Company is not able to accurately predict or control and that may cause its actual results to differ materially from the expectations described in its forward-looking statements. Investors are cautioned that all forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those discussed as a result of various factors, including, but not limited to, the uncertainty of TRC’s operational and growth strategies; circumstances which could create large cash outflows, such as contract losses, litigation, uncollectible receivables and income tax assessments; regulatory uncertainty; the availability of funding for government projects; the level of demand for TRC’s services; product acceptance; industry-wide competitive factors; the ability to continue to attract and retain highly skilled and qualified personnel; the availability and adequacy of insurance; and general political or economic conditions. Furthermore, market trends are subject to changes, which could adversely affect future results. See the risk factors and additional discussion in TRC’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, and other factors included from time to time in the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
