Tony Guzzi, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of EMCOR, commented, “We had an exceptional first half of the year, the Company maintained its excellent momentum in the second quarter and again set new records across key financial and operational metrics. Demand for EMCOR’s specialty contracting services remains high, further reinforcing our confidence in the trajectory of the business. Our Remaining Performance Obligations are at near record levels, and our pipeline continues to be robust, all supporting our positive outlook for the rest of the year and gives us confidence to increase financial guidance for 2024.”

First Six Months 2024 Results of Operations

Revenues for the first six months of 2024 totaled $7.10 billion, an increase of 19.6%, compared to $5.94 billion for the first six months of 2023. Net income for the first six months of 2024 was $444.7 million, or $9.41 per diluted share, compared to net income of $252.1 million, or $5.28 per diluted share, for the first six months of 2023.

Operating income for the first six months of 2024 was $592.8 million, or 8.3% of revenues, compared to operating income of $351.6 million, or 5.9% of revenues, for the first six months of 2023. Operating income included depreciation and amortization expense, inclusive of amortization of identifiable intangible assets, of $63.8 million and $57.5 million for the first six months of 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $680.5 million, or 9.6% of revenues, for the first six months of 2024, compared $574.5 million, or 9.7% of revenues, for the first six months of 2023.

Mr. Guzzi continued, “Our Electrical and Mechanical Construction segments continued to perform exceptionally well, driving our overall strong performance. With quarterly and year-to-date revenue growth of over 35%, our Mechanical Construction segment generated record revenues and operating income, and a record operating margin of 12.9% for the quarter and 11.8% on a year-to-date basis. Our Electrical Construction segment posted record revenues, with growth of 18% on both a quarterly and year-to-date basis and achieved a record second quarter operating margin, earning over 11% in both the quarter and year-to-date periods. We continue to perform exceptionally well against strong demand across the majority of the sectors we serve, including high-tech and traditional manufacturing, network and communications, institutional, and healthcare. Within our U.S. Building Services segment, which is executing as expected, our mechanical services business continued to deliver exceptional performance with high-single digit operating margins, and low-double digit revenue growth, as strong demand continues for our energy efficiency services, building controls installations and upgrades, and retrofit projects. Our Industrial Services segment reported its best second quarter post-pandemic as improved demand continued for both shop and field services.”

Increases Full Year 2024 Guidance

Based on year-to-date 2024 performance, current operating conditions, and near-term visibility, the Company is:

1. Increasing its full-year 2024 revenue guidance range to $14.5 billion - $15.0 billion, from the prior guidance range of $14.0 billion - $14.5 billion.
2. Increasing its full-year 2024 diluted earnings per share guidance range to $19.00 - $20.00, from the prior guidance range of $15.50 - $16.50.

Mr. Guzzi concluded, “With our strong first half performance, we are again raising our 2024 guidance. We continue to execute well by deploying our resources to serve our customers and believe we are positioned in the right geographies and sectors that have long-term growth prospects. We also continue to deliver for our shareholders by maintaining our focus on operational excellence and balanced capital allocation.”
