Toronto, Ontario – March 12, 2013: Aecon Group Inc. (TSX: ARE) today reported results for the fourth quarter and full year 2012 showing margin trends continued to be positive while revenue in 2012 was slightly higher than the same period a year ago.
“We are pleased to have made significant improvements in our financial performance through the course of 2012 and remain focused on execution and a disciplined approach in working toward our target of 9 per cent EBITDA margin in 2015. The steady progress that we are making particularly reflects improved volume and margins in our mining operations as well as increased contributions from our Industrial business,” said John M. Beck, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We enter 2013 with confidence in our three strategic core markets: infrastructure, energy and mining.”
HIGHLIGHTS
- Due to higher margins, gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2012, increased by $40.9 million to $315.0 million on revenues of $2,946.8 million compared to $274.1 million on revenues of $2,896.2 million in 2011.
- Adjusted EBITDA (excluding gains on sale of assets and investments) increased by 17 per cent to $172.4 million for the year ($147.2 million in 2011) due primarily to improved margins (adjusted EBITDA margin of 5.9 per cent in 2012 versus 5.1 per cent in 2011).
- Adjusted profit attributable to shareholders (excluding fair value gain on convertible debentures) of $74.8 million ($1.18 per diluted share) for 2012 was recorded compared to $54.5 million ($0.84 per diluted share) in 2011.
- Backlog of $2.43 billion at year end 2012 versus $2.39 billion in 2011.
- Subsequent to year end, Aecon announced that the new Quito International Airport successfully commenced commercial flight operations.
- Annual dividend is increased to $0.32 per share ($0.08 per quarter) from $0.28 per share ($0.07 per quarter).

The Other costs and eliminations category includes corporate and other costs that are not directly allocable to segments and also includes inter-segment eliminations.
Backlog reached $2.428 billion at December 31, 2012 compared to $2.390 billion for 2011, with the extended duration of work beyond the next twelve months representing 42 per cent versus 38 per cent at year end 2011.
Not included in backlog, but important to Aecon’s prospects due to the significant volume involved, is the expected revenue from Aecon’s growing alliances and supplier-of-choice arrangements where the amount and/or value of work to be carried out is not specified. In 2012, this additional work represented approximately 25 per cent of overall revenue.
OPERATING AND FINANCIAL RESULTS
“Aecon’s operational performance in 2012 sets the foundation for us to continue making progress on all fronts,” said Teri McKibbon, Chief Operating Officer. “Strong performance in mining, industrial operations and continued improvements in buildings operations - along with a solid backlog and significant bidding activity - bodes well for our ongoing performance going forward.”
While operating profit increased by $9.3 million to $109.8 million for 2012, the comparison of year-over-year results was significantly impacted by gains from the sale of assets and investments in 2011 ($11.5 million from Israel alone) as well as operating profits from operations in Israel ($6.8 million) prior to their sale in September 2011. After adjusting for gains from the sale of assets and investments and operating profits from operations in Israel in 2011, operating profit for 2012 was $31.1 million higher than 2011.
Adjusted EBITDA (excluding gains on sale of assets and investments) increased by 17 per cent to $172.4 million for the year ($147.2 million in 2011) due primarily to improved margins (adjusted EBITDA margin of 5.9 per cent in 2012 versus 5.1 per cent in 2011).
For the year ended December 31, 2012, Aecon operated in three principal segments within the construction and infrastructure development industry: Infrastructure, Industrial and Concessions.
INFRASTRUCTURE SEGMENT
The Infrastructure segment includes all aspects of civil construction from highways, bridges and tunnels to airports, marine facilities, transit and power projects as well as utilities and pipeline construction, buildings construction and mining operations.

The increase in gross profit within Infrastructure was due primarily to a strong performance from Mining operations, reflecting ongoing growth in the oil sands, as well as from improvements in Utilities operations. These improvements were partly offset by lower gross profit from Transportation and Heavy Civil operations.
For the three months and year ended December 31, 2012, the operating profit in the Infrastructure segment increased/(decreased) over the same periods last year as follows:

For the year ended December 31, 2012, the decline in operating profit reflected lower profits in the Heavy Civil sector due to a number of significant projects closed out during the year. This included construction of the New Quito Airport where a combination of lower revenue and lower margin resulted in an approximate $24 million year-over-year decline in Heavy Civil operating profit. While this was largely offset by the release of certain project contingencies related to Quito in the Concessions segment and of income taxes related to the project, it had an adverse impact on Infrastructure profit and margin.
In addition, lower volume and margin in Transportation and Social Infrastructure were contributing factors. Increased profits in Mining operations in Western Canada were due to higher volume and margin and improved equipment utilization.
Infrastructure backlog at December 31, 2012 rose to $1,677 million – an increase of $161 million or 11 percent – as compared to $1,516 million in 2011. New contract awards totaled $2,058 million in 2012 compared to $1,391 million in the prior year.
INDUSTRIAL SEGMENT
Industrial operations include all of Aecon’s industrial manufacturing and construction activities including in-plant construction, fabrication of specialty pipe, assembly of custom module units and the design and manufacture of once-through heat recovery steam generators.

The improvements in the Industrial segment resulted from improved margins and higher volume in the resources and commodity mining sector in Western Canada operations as well as increased volume from Central Canada’s fabrication operations.
For the three months and year ended December 31, 2012, the operating profit in the Industrial segment increased/(decreased) over the same periods last year as follows:

Industrial backlog at December 31, 2012 was $123 million lower than the same time last year primarily due to lower backlog in Heavy Industrial operations. Most of the reduction in new awards reflects the year-over-year impact of several large multi-year project awards received in the second half of 2011.
CONCESSIONS SEGMENT
The Concessions segment includes the development, operation and financing of infrastructure projects by way of public-private partnership, build-own-operate-transfer or other alternative financing contract structures.

The majority of the decrease in revenue and operating profit in the Concessions segment during the year ended December 31, 2012 is the result of the sale in the third quarter of 2011 of Aecon’s interest in the operator of the Cross Israel Highway. The segment benefitted in 2012 from the release of contingencies related to the Quito airport project following substantial completion of the project during the fourth quarter.
DIVIDEND INCREASE
Aecon’s Board of Directors approved an increase in the dividend to be paid to all holders of Aecon Common Shares. The annual dividend will increase to $0.32 per share (from $0.28 per share) to be paid in four quarterly payments of $0.08 cents per share (from $0.07 per share). The first increased quarterly dividend payment will be paid on April 1, 2013 to shareholders of record on March 22, 2013.
CONSOLIDATED RESULTS
The consolidated results for the three months and years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 are available at the end of this news release.
