Built to Deliver a Better World Letter from Michael S Built to deliver a better world Letter from Michael S. Burke Chairman & Chief Executive Officer AECOM Dear Stockholders: This has been a remarkable year for AECOM. We doubled our revenue to $18 billion and grew our adjusted EPS and free cash flow per share by 14% and 52%, respectively. We ended the year with over $40 billion of backlog. And, we progressed our capital allocation strategy designed to generate stockholder value by paying down over $700 million of the debt incurred to execute the URS transaction. Due to our strong execution, we also increased our synergy savings target to $325 million from $250 million at the outset of the year — a sign of increasing confidence in our combined business. But the numbers only represent a portion of our accomplishments as a company. With the URS transaction, we completed the largest combination in our industry’s history, uniting two proud cultures, and began setting the path for new opportunities that leverage our combined strengths, unparalleled talent and global reach. Our focus has moved from integration to transformation, and we continue to drive closer to our destination — to be the premier, fully-integrated global infrastructure firm. As a company, we are in a better position for growth than ever before. AECOM’s combined structure allows us to design, build, finance and operate (DBFO) critical infrastructure assets for our clients around the world and brings together the former operations of AECOM and URS into four principal business groups: Design & Consulting Services; Construction Services; Management Services and AECOM Capital. Our combined DBFO strengths, expertise and relationships are important competitive differentiators for us as we generate more opportunities with clients who already appreciate our creativity, innovation and ability to deliver. There are very few companies in the world that can execute at the scale and technical level that AECOM is known for, and our capabilities are enhanced with this new structure. Our diversified business model proved resilient in the face of market headwinds, but those forces, along with uneven business performance during the integration, challenged our overall operating performance, resulting in adjusted earnings per share of $3.08 for FY15. We enter 2016 with a great deal of momentum. − We are seeing signs of better revenue performance in our DCS Americas group as contracted backlog grew in the fourth quarter. − In Construction Services, we are benefiting from our geographic diversification strategy as we focus on targeted efforts to expand into Asia-Pacific and Europe, Middle East, India and Africa. − Management Services entered 2016 with a solid new business pipeline internationally — another credit to our diversification strategy that took us into new geographies. − We are going to continue to build out AECOM Capital, which has invested in real estate projects with a total capitalization of $3 billion. 2 AECOM Throughout 2015 we remained focused on delivering a better world through flawless execution and by concentrating on the core enablers of our success — people, clients and excellence, as well as our remaining core values — integrity, safety and innovation. People The expertise, passion and thought leadership of our talented people around the world make our success possible. During 2015, we implemented programs and initiatives to empower our people, advance our high-performance culture and engagement, and create more opportunities for growth. Significantly, and included among our Diversity and Inclusion activities, we pushed to increase gender diversity at all levels of the enterprise by ensuring hiring decisions are made from a consistently diverse slate of candidates. AECOM made several key executive hires and appointments this year, including Carla Christofferson, executive vice president and general counsel; General Janet C. Wolfenbarger, USAF Retired, Board of Directors; Mary E. Finch, executive vice president and chief human resources officer; and Heather Rim, senior vice president and chief communications officer. We continue to invest in our people with programs and benefits that are above industry- standard to make AECOM the employer of choice. Clients We are committed to our clients and to setting industry standards for service and delivery. We take ownership for solving our clients’ problems and anticipating new opportunities. In 2015, we focused on delivering the full strengths of our newly combined company to our clients, earning favorable reviews and strong client satisfaction marks. Excellence We believe in delivering unequivocal excellence in everything that we do. We make a positive, lasting impact by applying our global best practices, connected expertise and innovative thinking to solve complex, evolving challenges. I am proud of how we demonstrate our project excellence through our commitment to sustainability. AECOM defines sustainability as helping clients, society and the company address complex challenges by managing financial, natural, social and human capital, with minimum risk. This year, we were recognized for excellence in sustainability by being ranked the #1 Top 100 Green Building Design Firm by Engineering News Record for 2015. Integrity At AECOM, we take pride in how our people conduct themselves with integrity. We are committed to integrity and ethical business practices as we continue to earn our clients’ trust by providing outstanding customer service and acting ethically in all that we do. In 2015, our approach to ethical behavior and compliance with local laws and regulations resulted in accolades such as being named a World’s Most Admired Company by Fortune magazine, an annual list that identifies companies with the strongest reputations across almost all industries. AECOM’s debut on Fortune’s 2015 list reflects recognized progress in the nine key performance areas including ability to attract and retain talented people, quality of management, social responsibility to the community and the environment, innovativeness, quality of products or services, wise use of corporate assets, financial soundness, long-term investment value and effectiveness in doing business globally. AECOM 3 Safety Safety remains a critical component to AECOM’s overall success, and our evolving safety culture continues to put us on a trajectory toward best-in-class performance within our industry. I’m proud to report that during FY15, AECOM achieved a total recordable injury rate (TRIR) 7.5 percent lower than our target. TRIR represents work-related incidents that result in injury and/or ill health requiring medical attention beyond first-aid, restriction of work activities and/or absence from the workplace in order to recover, and measures the frequency of all work-related injuries and illnesses. AECOM’s safety efforts have also been recognized by several safety industry organizations during FY15, including the U.S. National Safety Council, Hong Kong’s Development Bureau and the Construction Industry Council, the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents and the Campbell Institute. Innovation Innovation that promotes positive change and tackles the world’s most complex challenges is at the heart of what we do. As a leading, fully integrated global infrastructure company, AECOM counts among its workforce some of the brightest minds in the industry — talented people whose work cuts across the spectrum of design, engineering, construction, financing, government services and operations. AECOM consistently demonstrates an outstanding ability to advance innovation in delivering high performing projects that meet client demands. Built to Deliver a Better World We have built this company to deliver infrastructure and solutions to complex problems that improve people’s lives and seed opportunity for change, growth and resiliency. As a company, we are in a stronger position for growth than ever before. Our clients face tough, interrelated challenges that can only be solved by a company like ours — a company with deep roots, diverse perspectives and an innovative approach. We are proud to be a company that has the people, technology and vision to deliver what others can only imagine. On behalf of everyone at AECOM, I thank you for your continued support.

  • 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.

  • Anticipated Acquisition by AECOM Technology Corporation of URS Corporation
    Anticipated acquisition by AECOM Technology Corporation of URS Corporation ME/6464-14 The CMA’s decision on reference under section 33(1) given on 14 October 2014. Full text of the decision published on 12 November 2014. Please note that the square brackets indicate figures or text which have been deleted or replaced in ranges at the request of the parties for reasons of commercial confidentiality. Summary 1. The parties concerned are AECOM Technology Corporation (AECOM) and URS Corporation (URS), together the ‘Parties’. The Parties provide a range of engineering design and construction consultancy services to public and private clients globally. The effect of the transaction (hereafter referred to as the ‘Merger’) is that URS will become a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of AECOM. 2. The Merger results in the creation of a relevant merger situation as the two enterprises, AECOM and URS, will cease to be distinct and the Merger satisfies the turnover test. 3. In the UK, the Parties overlap in engineering consultancy services across four general areas: General Building, Environmental, Water and Transportation. For the purposes of the competitive assessment, the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) considered these general areas and 18 subsectors into which they can be divided. Based on the evidence available to it, the CMA considers that there are many competitors in each subsector, with several companies offering a similar range of services as the Parties. Based on share of supply data from an industry market report submitted by the Parties, the combined shares of the Parties when considering a narrow frame of reference would be 11% in all but one subsector, or there would be only a small incremental increase in supply post-Merger.
