A host of strategic, private equity, and private-equity- backed portfolio companies were active in M&A over the last 60 days. Among the notable transaction multiples noted, WorleyParsons’ acquisition of Jacobs’ ECR division traded at approximately 11.7x EBITDA. In another transaction, NV5’s deal for CHI Engineering represented approximately 1.0x CHI’s revenue. Private equity remains focused on the AEC industry, with ENR Top 500 Design Firm, Kleinfelder, announcing a deal with Wind Point Partners. Oaktree Capital Management has been active in the sector, acquiring Stantec’s construction services business, which came over as part of its acquisition of MWH Global, and separately, investing in Montrose Environmental Group. Additionally, in two separate add-on deals, Atlas Technical Consultants (backed by Bernhard Capital Partners) acquired SCST and E-Technologies Group (backed by Falfurrias Capital Partners) acquired Glenmount Global Solutions. Nearly across the board, backlog and profitability among AEC firms remains high with a positive outlook for 2019. Uncertainty remains about a long-term U.S. infrastructure plan and recent declines in oil prices, but at a macro level, the industry appears to be on steady footing as 2018 heads toward a close. 8 Rev TEV / LTM Rev Growth EBITDA TEV / EBITDA Rev / Company TEV $m $m YoY GP % % Rev X X # FTEs FTE $k Willdan Group, Inc. 396 250 -6% 34% 8% 1.6 21.1 631 396 RPS Group plc 542 843 4% 25% 10% 0.7 6.7 5,340 158 NV5 Global, Inc. 893 397 31% 49% 12% 2.3 18.0 1,653 240 Arcadis NV 1,647 3,683 -4% 18% 6% 0.5 7.6 26,162 141 Stantec Inc. 3,278 2,701 2% 52% 9% 1.2 13.4 22,000 123 Tetra Tech, Inc. 3,505 2,201 8% 17% 11% 1.6 14.9 17,000 129 WSP Global Inc. 5,814 6,048 15% 18% 8% 1.0 13.0 42,000 144 AECOM 7,954 20,156 11% 3% 4% 0.4 9.4 87,000 232 SNC-Lavalin Group Inc. 8,415 8,076 21% 19% 10% 1.1 11.1 52,448 154 Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. 10,791 14,985 50% 19% 6% 0.7 12.3 74,400 201 Average 4,323 5,934 13% 25% 8% 1.1 12.8 32,863 192 Median 3,392 3,192 9% 19% 8% 1.0 12.7 24,081 156 Public Rev & EBITDA Multiples Over Time 16x 14x 12x 10x 8x 11.4x 6x 4x 0.9x 2x 0x Jul-14 Jul-15 Jul-16 Jul-17 Jul-18 Jan-15 Jan-16 Jan-17 Jan-18 Jun-14 Jun-15 Jun-16 Jun-17 Jun-18 Apr-14 Apr-15 Apr-16 Apr-17 Apr-18 Oct-14 Oct-15 Oct-16 Oct-17 Oct-18 Feb-15 Feb-16 Feb-17 Feb-18 Sep-14 Sep-15 Sep-16 Sep-17 Sep-18 Mar-14 Mar-15 Mar-16 Mar-17 Mar-18 Dec-14 Dec-15 Dec-16 Dec-17 Dec-18 Aug-14 Aug-15 Aug-16 Aug-17 Aug-18 Nov-14 Nov-15 Nov-16 Nov-17 Nov-18 May-14 May-15 May-16 May-17 May-18 TEV/EBITDA - Median TEV/Revenue - Median TEV/EBITDA - Average TEV/Revenue - Average For the most recent reporting periods as of 12.1.18 Source: Capital IQ 9 LTM Revenue Growth % LTM Gross Profit Margin % LTM EBITDA % Jacobs Engineering NV5 Global, Inc.

  • 2021 Letter to Stockholders Proxy Statement 2020 Form 10-K
    2021 Letter to Stockholders Proxy Statement 2020 Form 10-K Dear Stockholders, When I last reported to you a year ago, we were closely monitoring the spread of COVID-19 and what 2020 had in store for us. Now, as we enter 2021, I can look back and say I have never been prouder of our team than after seeing how they rose to meet the challenges we faced together over the past year. 2020 Performance and Accomplishments Before I report on our many achievements in 2020, it is important to acknowledge how the pandemic has affected our 39,000 colleagues around the globe. We lost team members to COVID-19, and many of us have lost friends and family members as well. There have been very real economic, emotional and psychological impacts of the virus and the lockdowns that have been neces- sary to combat it. Throughout the year, as the virus first appeared and then spread, we worked to keep our workplaces healthy, our communities resilient, and our global food chain strong. We dramatically expanded our IT infrastructure to allow non-production colleagues to work safely from home, while simultaneously supporting our frontline teams, who continued coming to our production facilities every day. We worked with the University of Illinois on new saliva-based COVID-19 testing capabilities. And we offered financial and other support to colleagues and communities in need. Now, we are focused on helping our team members get vaccinated to protect ourselves and those around us, and accelerate a return to normalcy. Amid all of these challenges, our team delivered for our company and our customers.
