Record Remaining Performance Obligations of $9.18 billion, 16.5% Increase Year-over-Year

EMCOR Group, Inc. (NYSE: EME) today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.

For the first quarter of 2024, revenues totaled $3.43 billion, an increase of 18.7%, compared to $2.89 billion for the first quarter of 2023. Net income was $197.1 million, or $4.17 per diluted share, compared to $111.5 million, or $2.32 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2023.

Operating income for the first quarter of 2024 was $260.0 million, or 7.6% of revenues, compared to $154.9 million, or 5.4% of revenues, for the first quarter of 2023. Operating income included depreciation and amortization expense, inclusive of amortization of identifiable intangible assets, of $29.6 million and $28.5 million for the first quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2024 totaled $329.4 million, or 9.6% of revenues, compared to $281.2 million, or 9.7% of revenues, for the first quarter of 2023.

The Company's income tax rate for the first quarter of 2024 was 26.4%, compared to 27.0% for the first quarter of 2023.

Remaining performance obligations as of March 31, 2024 were $9.18 billion compared to $7.87 billion as of March 31, 2023, up approximately $1.30 billion year-over-year.

Tony Guzzi, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of EMCOR, commented, “The Company had an exceptional start to the year, sustaining momentum throughout the first quarter and setting new records in key financial and operational metrics. Our confidence is reinforced by the significant year-over-year increase in our remaining performance obligations and a healthy project pipeline, all of which provide us with strong visibility into the remainder of the year and is reflected in our increased financial guidance for 2024.”

Mr. Guzzi continued, “Our Electrical and Mechanical Construction segments continue to exceed our already high expectations. Our Electrical Construction segment posted record revenues and operating margin, with revenues growing 18.6% and operating margin coming in at 12.0%. With organic growth of 32.4%, our Mechanical Construction segment generated record first quarter revenues, and achieved a record first quarter operating margin of 10.6%. We executed well with strong demand across many of the market sectors we serve, including high-tech and traditional manufacturing, as well as the network and communications sector. We had outstanding performance on some of the most demanding projects for our most sophisticated customers. Our Industrial Services business reported its best quarter post-pandemic. We continue to see improved demand for our services and completed some of our largest turnarounds in over five years. Within our U.S. Building Services segment, our mechanical services business continues to perform well, with solid high-single digit operating margins, and strong demand persists for our energy efficiency, building controls and retrofit projects.”

Increases Full Year 2024 Guidance

Based on its first quarter 2024 performance, current operating conditions, and near-term visibility, the Company is:

  • Increasing its full-year 2024 revenue guidance range to $14.0 billion - $14.5 billion, an increase from the prior guidance range of $13.5 billion - $14.0 billion.
  • Increasing its full-year 2024 diluted earnings per share guidance range to $15.50 - $16.50, an increase from the prior guidance range of $14.00 - $15.00.

Mr. Guzzi added, “Our continued momentum in the first quarter and our sustained success over the past several years reflects our ability to efficiently deploy exceptionally skilled talent in the field, and our focus on operational excellence. Looking forward, we are well positioned to serve our customers and meet the evolving demands of the markets in which we operate.”

Mr. Guzzi concluded, “We feel confident in raising our guidance and believe we have the right strategy being implemented by a team that can execute very well against the available market opportunities. We will continue to be balanced capital allocators, as evidenced by our year-to-date actions, including four recently disclosed acquisitions, share repurchases, and our increased dividend. Our priority is always to deploy capital to organic growth first, and then expand our capacity and capability through acquisitions to better serve our customers and increase value for our shareholders.”
