Income from construction operations of $68.8 million, increased 19% over prior year, driven by a continued shift toward higher-margin projects within the Civil segment
Diluted earnings per share ("EPS") of $0.61, up 65% compared to $0.37 in Q2 2020
Backlog remains healthy at $7.5 billion, with 58% comprised of higher-margin Civil projects
Affirming 2021 EPS guidance of $1.80 to $2.20

Tutor Perini Corporation (the "Company") (NYSE:TPC), a leading civil, building and specialty construction company, reported results today for the second quarter of 2021. Revenue was $1.22 billion, down modestly compared to $1.28 billion for the second quarter of last year. Reduced activities mostly on Building segment projects were partially offset by increased volume on Specialty Contractors segment projects. Despite the lower revenue, income from construction operations for the second quarter of 2021 was $68.8 million, up 19% compared to $57.7 million for the second quarter of last year. The increase was principally driven by a continued shift toward higher-margin projects within the Civil segment. In addition, the Company experienced improved overall results for the Specialty Contractors segment in the second quarter of 2021, mostly due to the resolution of various contract disputes that had a net favorable impact in 2021 and the absence of the impact of an unfavorable arbitration ruling in 2020. Net income attributable to the Company for the second quarter of 2021 was $31.2 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, compared to $18.7 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2020. The strong increase in net income attributable to the Company, and correspondingly EPS, was driven by the higher income from construction operations.

Second quarter 2021 backlog remained healthy at $7.5 billion compared to $8.3 billion at the end of 2020. As anticipated, backlog continued to decline in the second quarter as a result of revenue that solidly outpaced the volume of new awards. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the volume and timing of new awards in recent quarters. New awards in the second quarter of 2021 totaled $0.6 billion and included a $152 million courthouse project in California and $88 million for various civil projects in the Midwest. The Company recently received a letter of intent to award a $471 million contract for the LAX Airport Metro Connector project and will be booking the project into backlog in the third quarter of 2021, along with the $220 million I-70 Missouri River Bridge project. The Company also anticipates being awarded a significant new health care facility project in California. The Company is also preparing to bid on several large projects this year and during the first half of 2022, and anticipates backlog growth to resume later this year to levels that will support future revenue growth.

Outlook and Guidance

"We delivered strong EPS results for the second quarter and first six months of 2021, which were ahead of expectations," remarked Ronald Tutor, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Tutor continued, "Demand for our construction services remains very strong, with an ever-expanding list of prospective projects. For as long as I have been in this business, this is the most vibrant market yet in terms of opportunities, with the potential to grow even more should the federal government pass a major program to invest significantly in our country's infrastructure. We are optimistic about the future and expect to capture our share of the many large opportunities ahead, which will support our growth over the coming years."

Based on the Company's year-to-date results in 2021 and the current outlook for the remainder of the year, the Company is affirming its EPS guidance and still expects EPS to be in the range of $1.80 to $2.20.
