Note 2Basis of Presentation
Interim consolidated financial statements The interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 have been prepared in accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). As such, certain disclosures, which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the Companys latest audited consolidated financial statements, have been omitted. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2012 (the Second Quarter 2012 Report) should be read in concert with the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed on March 5, 2012, which contains the Companys audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011.
The interim financial information for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 has been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements; however, the financial statements contained in this Second Quarter 2012 Report do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for audited financial statements. The interim financial information is unaudited. In the opinion of management, the unaudited information includes all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation of the interim financial information.
Revenue recognition The Company typically structures contracts as unit-price, time and material, fixed-price or cost reimbursable plus fee. Revenue is recognized on the cost-on-total-cost percentage-of-completion method for fixed price contracts. In the percentage-of-completion method, estimated revenues and resulting contract income is calculated based on the total costs incurred to date as a percentage of total estimated costs. Total estimated costs, and thus contract revenues and income, can be impacted by changes in any of the following: productivity, scheduling, the unit cost of labor, subcontracts, materials and equipment. Additionally, external factors such as weather, client needs, client delays in providing permits and approvals, labor availability, governmental regulation and politics may affect the progress of a projects completion and thus the timing of revenue recognition. If an estimate of total contract cost indicates a loss on a contract, the projected loss is recognized in full at the time of the estimate.
The caption Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings represents the excess of contract revenues recognized under the percentage-of-completion method over billings to date. For those contracts in which billings exceed contract revenues recognized to date, such excesses are included in the caption Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings.
Revenues on cost-plus and time and materials contracts are recognized as the related work is completed.
In accordance with applicable terms of construction contracts, certain retainage amounts may be withheld by customers until completion and acceptance of the project. Final payments of the majority of such amounts are expected to be receivable in the following operating cycle.
Significant revision in contract estimate As previously discussed, revenue recognition is based on the percentage-of-completion method for firm fixed-price contracts. Under this method, the costs incurred to date as a percentage of total estimated costs are used to calculate the revenue to be recognized. Total estimated costs, and thus contract income, are impacted by many factors.
For projects that were in process in the prior year, but are either completed or continue to be in process during the current year, there can be a difference in revenues and profits related to the prior year, had current year estimates of costs to complete been known in the prior year.
Customer concentration The Company operates in multiple industry segments encompassing the construction of commercial, industrial and public works infrastructure assets throughout primarily the United States. Typically, the top ten customers in any one calendar year generate revenues in excess of 50% of total revenues and consist of a different group of customers in each year.
During the three-months and six-months ending June 30, 2012, revenues generated by the top ten customers were $184.8 million and $364.2 million, respectively, which represented 54.8% and 57.9%, respectively of total revenues during the periods. During the three and six month periods ending June 30, 2012, the Louisiana DOT represented 11.6% and 13.3%, respectively, of total revenues and a large gas and electric utility represented 12.1% and 11.9%, respectively, of total revenues. During the three and six months ending June 30, 2011, revenues generated by Rockford under the Ruby contract were $89.5 million and $216.4 million, respectively, which represented 25.4% and 30.4%, respectively, of total revenues during the periods. The Ruby contract was part of a large project for the construction of a natural gas pipeline from Wyoming to Oregon for which field work was substantially completed by the end of the third quarter 2011.
At June 30, 2012, approximately 6.8% of the Companys accounts receivable were due from one customer, and that customer provided 4.1% of the Companys revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2012. At June 30, 2011, approximately 4.9% of the Companys accounts receivable were due from one customer, and that customer provided 30.4% of the Companys revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2011
Multiemployer plans The Company participates and contributes to a number of multiemployer benefit plans for its union employees at rates determined by the various collective bargaining agreements. Each plans trustees determine the eligibility and allocations of contributions and benefit amounts, determine the types of benefits and administer the plan. The potential withdrawal obligation may be significant. Any withdrawal liability would be recorded when it is probable that a liability exists and can be reasonably estimated, in accordance with GAAP. In November 2011, the Company withdrew from the Central States Southeast and Southwest Areas Pension Fund multiemployer pension plan and recorded a $5 million withdrawal liability as of December 31, 2011. At this time, the Company has no plans to withdraw from any other agreements.
Inventory and uninstalled contract materials Inventory consists of expendable construction materials and small tools that will be used in construction projects and is valued at the lower of cost, using first-in, first-out method, or market. Uninstalled contract materials include certain job specific materials not yet installed which are valued using the specific identification method.
Note 3Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Fair Value Disclosures
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement: Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS, which provides amendments to FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. The objective of ASU 2011-04 is to create common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The amendments clarify existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements and make changes to particular principles or requirements for measuring or disclosing information about fair value measurements. The Company adopted ASU 2011-04 on January 1, 2012, which did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Intangibles Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill or Impairment (ASU 2011-08). ASU 2011-08 provides an option to assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If an entity determines that the fair value is not less than its carrying amount, then it is not necessary to perform the two-step impairment test. An entity can choose to perform the qualitative assessment on none, some or all of its reporting units. An entity can also bypass the qualitative assessment for any reporting unit in any period and proceed directly to step one of the impairment test, and then resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. ASU 2011-08 also includes new qualitative indicators that replace those currently used to determine whether an interim goodwill impairment test is required to be performed. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2012 which did not have a material impact on the Companys financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Intangible Asset Impairment Testing
In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, Intangibles Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment (ASU 2012-02). ASU 2012-02 allows an organization the option of first assessing qualitative factors to determine if a quantitative impairment test of the indefinite-lived intangible asset is necessary. If the qualitative assessment reveals that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired, a calculation of the assets fair value is required. Otherwise, no quantitative calculation, as outlined in Subtopic 350-30 is necessary. ASU 2012-02 is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. The Company will adopt this standard on October 1, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2012-02 is not expected to have a material impact on the Companys financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Note 4Fair Value Measurements
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC Topic 820 addresses fair value GAAP for financial assets and financial liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period and for non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value on a non-recurring basis.
In general, fair values determined by Level 1 use quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs use data points that are observable such as quoted prices, interest rates and yield curves. Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability.
The following table presents, for each of the fair value hierarchy levels identified under ASC Topic 820, the Companys financial assets that are required to be measured at fair value at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011:

Short-term investments consist primarily of Certificates of Deposit (CDs) purchased through the CDARS (Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service) process and U.S. Treasury bills with various financial institutions that are backed by the federal government FDIC program.
Other financial instruments of the Company consist of accounts receivable, accounts payable and certain accrued liabilities. These financial instruments generally approximate fair value based on their short-term nature. The carrying value of the Companys long-term debt approximates fair value based on comparison with current prevailing market rates for loans of similar risks and maturities.

At the end of 2011, a major oil refining third party terminated two potential projects. WesPac expensed $5.4 million. In March 2012, the third party reimbursed WesPac for its share of the terminated project costs.
In December 2011, the Company recorded its 50% share of expenses required by the equity method of accounting. The Company also reduced its $5.0 million basis difference by $1.7 million to recognize an estimate for an other than temporary decrease in the value of its basis difference between the Companys original investment and its pro-rata share of the WesPac equity.
St.Bernard Levee Partners
The Company purchased a 30% interest in St.Bernard Levee Partners (Bernard) in the fourth quarter 2009 for $300 and accounts for this investment under the equity method. Bernard engages in construction activities in Louisiana. Bernard distributed $4,200 and $22,892 to its equity holders during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, of which, the Companys share, as calculated under the joint venture agreement, was $1,260 and $5,880 for the same periods in 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Note 8 Business Combinations
Sprint Pipeline Services, L.P.
On March 12, 2012, the Company executed an asset purchase agreement with Sprint Pipeline Services, L.P. (Sprint). Headquartered in Pearland (near Houston), Texas, Sprint provides a comprehensive range of pipeline construction, maintenance, upgrade, fabrication and specialty services primarily in the southeastern United States. The Company formed Primoris Energy Services Corporation, a Texas corporation, to facilitate the acquisition. The purchase agreement allows the Company to use the Sprint name for three years.
The fair value of the consideration transferred to selling shareholders consisted of the following:
Cash consideration |
|
$ |
21,197 |
|
Company common stock |
|
980 |
| |
Earnout consideration |
|
6,200 |
| |
Total consideration |
|
$ |
28,377 |
|
On the closing date, we paid the sellers $19,228 in cash and in the second quarter paid an additional $1,969 once a final valuation of the net book value of assets purchased was completed.
We issued the sellers 62,052 shares of our common stock with a contractually agreed upon value of $1,000 based on the average closing price of our common stock for the 20 business days prior to the closing date. The fair value of the stock issued was $980 based on the stock price on the closing date.
As part of the acquisition, the Company agreed to issue additional cash to the sellers, contingent upon Sprint meeting certain operating performance targets for the remainder of 2012 and for the twelve months ending December 31, 2013. As discussed in Note 12 Contingent Earnout Liabilities, the estimated fair value of the contingency was $6,200 on the acquisition date and $6,422 as of June 30, 2012.
The acquisition of Sprint was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were measured at their estimated fair value at the acquisition date. Sprints results of operations have been included in the Companys consolidated financial statements from March 12, 2012.
The following table summarizes the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed:

The significant identifiable tangible assets acquired include primarily accounts receivable and property, plant and equipment. The Company determined that the book value of accounts receivable reflected fair value of those assets. The Company estimated the fair value of fixed assets on the effective date of the acquisition based on comparable market values for equipment of similar condition and age.
We requested the assistance of an independent third-party to determine the fair value of the intangible assets acquired for the acquisition.
During the second quarter 2012, the Company finalized its estimates of the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities of Sprint. The final revision resulted in a change from the values recorded at March 31, 2012, including a decrease in consideration paid to the sellers of $147, an increase in capital lease obligations of $920, an increase of $830 in property, plant and equipment, and a net decrease in working capital of $57.
The fair value measurements of the intangible assets were based primarily on significant unobservable inputs and thus represent a Level 3 measurement as defined in Note 3 Fair Value Measurements. Based on the Companys assessment, the acquired intangible assets categories, fair value and average amortization periods, on a straight-line basis, are as follows:
|

|
$ |
2,450 |
|
Total |
|
|
|
$ |
3,600 |
|
The fair value of the tradename was determined based on the relief from royalty method, which was selected based on external research of third party trade name licensing agreements and their royalty rate levels and management estimates. The useful life was based on the agreement providing for the use of the Sprint tradename for three years.
The fair value for the non-compete agreements was based on a discounted income approach model, including estimated financial results with and without the non-compete agreements in place. The agreements were analyzed based on the potential impact of competition that certain individuals could have on the financial results, assuming the agreements were not in place. An estimate of the probability of competition was applied and the results were compared to a similar model assuming the agreements were in place.
The customer relationships were valued utilizing the excess earnings method of the income approach. The estimated discounted cash flows associated with existing customers and projects were based on historical and market participant data. Such discounted cash flows were net of fair market returns on the various tangible and intangible assets that are necessary to realize the potential cash flows.
Goodwill largely consists of expected benefits from the geographic expansion and presence of Sprint in the Gulf Coast of the United States and its energy-related opportunities for specialized pipeline construction and related services. Goodwill also includes the value of the assembled workforce of the Sprint business. Based on the current tax treatment of the Sprint acquisition, goodwill and other intangible assets are deductible for income tax purposes over a fifteen-year period.
Silva Companies
On May 30, 2012, the Company executed an asset purchase agreement with Silva Contracting Company, Inc., Tarmac Materials, LLC and C3 Interests, LLC (collectively Silva). Based outside of Houston, Texas, Silva provides transportation infrastructure maintenance, asphalt paving and material sales in the Gulf Coast region of the United States.
The acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were measured at their estimated fair value at the acquisition date and such estimates are preliminary and subject to change. The final determination of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed has not been completed because of the short period of time from the date of the Silva acquisition to the end of the quarter. Silvas results of operations have been included in the Companys consolidated financial statements from May 30, 2012. On the closing date, we paid the sellers $13,934 and will pay an additional $175 in the third quarter 2012, for which we received $14,675 in property, plant and equipment, $903 in accounts and retention receivables and accounts payable of $1,469.
Supplemental Unaudited Pro Forma Information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011
In accordance with ASC 805 we are combining the Sprint and the Silva acquisition information. The following pro forma information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 presents the results of operations of both the Sprint and Silva acquisitions combined, as if the acquisitions had both occurred at the beginning of 2011. The supplemental pro forma information has been adjusted to include:
· |
the pro forma impact of amortization of intangible assets and depreciation of property, plant and equipment, based on the purchase price allocations; |
|
|
· |
the pro forma impact of the expense associated with the amortization of the discount for the fair value of the contingent consideration for potential earnout liabilities that may be achieved in 2012 and 2013 for the Sprint acquisition; |
|
|
· |
the pro forma tax effect of both the income before income taxes for Sprint and Silva and the pro forma adjustments, calculated using a tax rate of 39.0% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011; and |
|
|
· |
the pro forma increase in weighted average shares outstanding includes 62,052 shares of common stock issued as part of the Sprint acquisition. |
The pro forma results are presented for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of, or intended to represent, the results that would have been achieved had the Sprint and Silva transactions been completed on January 1, 2011. The pro forma results do not reflect any operating efficiencies and associated cost savings that the Company may have achieved with respect to the combined companies.

· a revolving loan in the amount of $15,000 (the Revolving Loan B), with a maturity date of October 25, 2012.
Under the Agreement, the Lender agreed to issue letters of credit of up to $15,000 under Revolving Loan A. As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, total commercial letters of credit outstanding under Revolving Loan A totaled $4,813 and $4,009, respectively. Other than the commercial letters of credit, there were no borrowings under these two lines of credit during the period January 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012. At June 30, 2012, available borrowing capacity under Revolving Loan A was $15,187 and under Revolving Loan B was $15,000.
The principal amount of each of Revolving Loan A and Revolving Loan B will bear interest at either: (i) LIBOR plus an applicable margin as specified in the Agreement, or (ii) the prime rate announced by the Lender plus an applicable margin as specified in the Agreement. The principal amount of any loan bearing interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin may not be prepaid without being subject to certain penalties. There is no prepayment penalty for any loan bearing interest at the prime rate announced by the Lender plus an applicable margin.
All loans made by the Lender under the Agreement are secured by our assets, including, among others, our cash, inventory, equipment (excluding equipment subject to certain permitted liens) and accounts receivable. Certain of our subsidiaries have executed joint and several guaranties in favor of the Lender for all amounts under the Agreement. The Agreement and the line of credit facilities contain various restrictive covenants, including, among others, restrictions on investments, capital expenditures, minimum tangible net worth and debt service coverage requirements. The Company was in compliance with the bank covenants at June 30, 2012.
The Company has a credit facility with a Canadian bank for purposes of issuing commercial letters of credit in Canada, for an amount of up to $10,000 in Canadian dollars. The credit facility has an annual renewal and provides for the issuance of commercial letters of credit for a term of up to five years. The facility requires an annual fee of 1% for any issued and outstanding commercial letters of credit. Letters of credit can be denominated in either Canadian or U.S. dollars. As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, total commercial letters of credit outstanding under this credit facility totaled $1,564 and $4,036 in Canadian dollars, respectively. As of June 30, 2012, the available borrowing capacity under this credit facility was $8,436 in Canadian dollars. The credit facility contains a working capital restrictive covenant for our Canadian subsidiary, Born Heaters Canada. At June 30, 2012, the Company was in compliance with the bank covenant.
In 2011, the Company entered into an agreement with Bank of the West whereby the Company agrees to maintain a cash balance at the bank equal to the full amount of certain commercial letters of credit. At both June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the amount of letters of credit with a maturity of twelve months and the related restricted cash amounted to $3,823, and is included as part of customer retention deposits and restricted cash on the balance sheet.
Subordinated promissory note Rockford . In connection with the acquisition of Rockford, the Company executed an unsecured promissory note (the Rockford Note) on November 12, 2010 in favor of the sellers of Rockford with an initial principal amount of $16,712. The principal amount of the Rockford Note was divided into two portions. Approximately $9,669 of the Rockford Note was designated as Note A, and approximately $7,043 of the note was designated as Note B. Note B was paid in full on March 10, 2011.
Note A is due and payable on October 31, 2013 and bears interest at different rates until maturity, averaging 6.67% over its life. During the first 12 months, Note A bore interest at a rate equal to 5%. For months 13 through 24, it bears interest at a rate equal to 7%. Thereafter and until maturity, Note A bears interest at a rate equal to 8%. Payments of principal and interest are payable monthly in an amount of $269 principal plus interest over 36 months. At June 30, 2012, a total of $5,000 was outstanding.
In November 2011, the Company placed $5 million in an interest bearing escrow account in lieu of making future payments of that amount to the holders of Rockfords Note A. As permitted by the terms of the Rockford Agreement, the amount will remain in escrow until resolution of a dispute related to a certain liability at the time of the closing of the transaction. The Company has included this escrow amount on its June 30, 2012 balance sheet as customer retention deposits and restricted cash.
Note A may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time. If we complete an equity financing while Note A is outstanding, we have agreed to use 15% of the net proceeds in excess of $10 million to prepay a portion or all of Note A. In addition, we have agreed to use 33% of any cash proceeds raised in connection with incurrence of any indebtedness (other than under a bank line of credit or to finance operating expenses, equipment and capital expenditures) to prepay a portion or all of Note A.
While any amount is outstanding under Note A, we have agreed not to take certain actions without the prior written consent of the Rockford Note holders representative. We have agreed not to: (i) incur any obligations for seller financing associated with the acquisition of a business without subordinating it to the Rockford Note, (ii) make any payment on outstanding indebtedness that has been subordinated to the Rockford Note, (iii) make any distribution or declare or pay any dividends (except for regular, quarterly dividends), and (iv) consummate any transaction that would require prepayment under the Rockford Note, if we are not permitted to do so by our senior lender and/or surety companies.
The sellers have entered into subordination agreements with our senior lender and bonding agencies, pursuant to which the Rockford Note is subordinated to amounts owed to our senior lender and bonding agencies.
Subordinated promissory note JCG . In connection with the acquisition of JCG, the Company executed an unsecured, subordinated promissory note (the JCG Note) on December 18, 2009 in favor of the sellers of JCG with an initial principal amount of $53,500. The JCG Note was due and payable on December 15, 2014 and bore interest at differing rates until maturity. The JCG note was paid in full on March 12, 2012.
Note 12 Contingent Earnout Liabilities
Sprint Earnout Consideration
As part of the Sprint acquisition on March 12, 2012, the Company agreed to issue additional cash to the sellers, contingent upon Sprint meeting certain operating performance targets for the remainder of 2012 and for the twelve months ending December 31, 2013.
The 2012 earnout target is measured by income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), as defined in the purchase agreement, for the remainder of the calendar year 2012. If 2012 EBITDA is at least $7.0 million, we have agreed to pay $4.0 million in cash to the sellers. The estimated fair value of the 2012 potential contingent consideration on the acquisition date was $3.45 million.
The 2013 earnout target provides for an additional cash payment of $4.0 million to the sellers if 2013 EBITDA is at least $7.75 million. The estimated fair value of the 2013 potential contingent consideration on the acquisition date was $2,745.
At June 30, 2012, the estimated fair value of the potential contingent consideration for the 2012 earnout was $3,580 and for the 2013 earnout target, it was $2,842.
Rockford Earnout Consideration
As part of the Rockford acquisition in November 2010, the Company agreed to issue additional cash and common stock to the sellers, contingent upon Rockford meeting certain operating performance targets for the fourth quarter 2010, for the five quarters ending December 31, 2011 and for the year ended December 31, 2012. The maximum amount of this consideration was $18.4 million, which, when measured on a fair value basis as of the acquisition date, was estimated at $14.3 million and was classified as a liability on the Companys consolidated balance sheet.
The 2010 earnout target for the fourth quarter 2010 was achieved, and in March 2011, the Company issued 494,095 shares of common stock to the sellers, reducing the liability and increasing stockholders equity.
The 2011 earnout target was achieved and the liability as of December 31, 2011 was $6,900. In April 2012, the Company issued 232,637 shares of common stock to the sellers and made cash payment of $3.45 million. The stock component of the earnout was based on the Companys average closing stock price during the month of December 2011 of $14.83 per share. The April 2012 cash payment reduced the liability, and the stock component reduced the liability and increased stockholders equity in the second quarter 2012.
A final contingent earnout liability exists for 2012 based on Rockfords financial performance as measured by income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), as defined in the purchase agreement, for the calendar year 2012. If 2012 EBITDA is at least $14.0 million, we would pay $6.9 million in cash to the sellers in 2013.
At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the estimated fair value of the potential contingent consideration for the 2012 earnout was $6,175 and $5,818, respectively. The $357 change in the fair value of this liability was a non-cash charge to other expense in the consolidated statement of income for the six month period ended June 30, 2012.
Note 13Related Party Transactions
Primoris has entered into various leasing transactions with Stockdale Investment Group, Inc. (SIGI).

Note 14Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was 38.50%. The rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% due primarily to state income taxes and the Domestic Production Activity Deduction.
To determine its quarterly provision for income taxes, the Company uses an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is based on expected annual income, statutory tax rates and tax planning opportunities available in the various jurisdictions to which the Company is subject. Certain significant or unusual items are separately recognized in the quarter in which they occur and can be a source of variability in the effective tax rate from quarter to quarter. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, as an income tax expense.
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and tax basis of the Companys assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is presently conducting an examination of our federal income tax returns for 2008 and 2009. The tax years 2010 through 2011 remain open to examination by the IRS. The statute of limitations of state and foreign jurisdictions vary generally between 3 to 5 years. Accordingly, the tax years 2007 through 2011 generally remain open to examination by the other major taxing jurisdictions in which the Company operates.

Introduction
Primoris is a holding company of various subsidiaries that forms one of the larger publicly traded specialty contractors and infrastructure companies in the United States. Serving diverse end-markets, Primoris provides a wide range of construction, fabrication, maintenance, replacement, water and wastewater, and engineering services to major public utilities, petrochemical companies, energy companies, municipalities, and other customers. With our acquisitions of JCG in December 2009 and Rockford in November 2010, Primoris has doubled its size and the Companys national footprint now extends from Florida, along the Gulf Coast, through California, into the Pacific Northwest and Canada. In March 2012, we acquired Sprint Pipeline Services, L.P. (Sprint), providing a comprehensive range of pipeline construction, maintenance, upgrade, fabrication and specialty services primarily in the southeastern United States. In May 2012, we acquired certain net assets of Silva Contracting Company, Inc., Tarmac Materials, LLC and C3 Interests, LLC (collectively Silva), which were incorporated as part of JCG. Based outside of Houston, Texas, Silva provides transportation infrastructure maintenance, asphalt paving, and material sales in the Gulf Coast region of the United States.
We install, replace, repair and rehabilitate natural gas, refined product, water and wastewater pipeline systems, large diameter gas and liquid pipeline facilities, highway and heavy civil projects, earthwork and site development and also construct mechanical facilities and other structures, including power plants, petrochemical facilities, refineries and parking structures. In addition, we provide maintenance services, including inspecting, overhaul and emergency repair services, to cogeneration plants, refineries and similar mechanical facilities. Through our subsidiary OnQuest, Inc., we provide engineering and design services for fired heaters and furnaces primarily used in refinery applications. Through our subsidiary Cardinal Contractors, Inc., we construct water and wastewater facilities in the southeastern United States.
We make our press releases, our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, our Current Reports on Form 8-K and all other required filings with the SEC available free of charge through our Internet Web site, as soon as reasonably practical after they are electronically filed with, or furnished to, the SEC. Our principal executive offices are located at 2100 McKinney Avenue, Suite 1500, Dallas, Texas 75201, and our telephone number is (214) 740-5600. Our Web site address is www.prim.com.

Range of Services
The Company segregates the business into three operating segments: the East Construction Services segment, the West Construction Services segment and the Engineering segment.
East and West Construction Services
Both the East Construction Services and the West Construction Services segments specialize in a range of services that include designing, building/installing, replacing, repairing/rehabilitating and providing management services for construction related projects. Our services include:
· Providing installation of underground pipeline, cable and conduits for entities in the petroleum, petrochemical and water industries;
· Providing installation and maintenance of industrial facilities for entities in the petroleum, petrochemical and water industries;
· Providing installation of complex commercial and industrial cast-in-place structures; and
· Providing construction of highways and industrial and environmental construction.
East Construction Services
The East Construction Services segment incorporates the JCG construction business, located primarily in the southeastern United States. The segment also includes the businesses located in the Gulf Coast region of the United States, including Cardinal Contractors, Inc. The segment also includes the operating results of Sprint since March 12, 2012 and Silva since May 30, 2012.
West Construction Services
The West Construction Services segment includes the construction services performed in the western United States, primarily in the state of California, with Rockford performing work nationwide. Entities included in West Construction Services are ARB Inc., ARB Structures, Inc., Rockford, Alaska Continental Pipeline, Inc., All Day Electric Company, Inc., Primoris Renewables, Inc., Juniper Rock, Inc. and Stellaris, LLC.
Engineering
The Engineering segment includes the results of OnQuest, Inc. and Born Heaters Canada, ULC. The Engineering group specializes in designing, supplying, and installing high-performance furnaces, heaters, burner management systems and related combustion and process technologies for clients in the oil refining, petrochemical and power generation industries. The group furnishes turnkey project management with technical expertise and the ability to deliver custom engineering solutions worldwide.
Material trends and uncertainties
We generate our revenue from both large and small construction and engineering projects. The award of these contracts is dependent on a number of factors, many of which are not within our control. Business in the construction industry is cyclical. We depend in part on spending by companies in the energy and oil and gas industries, gas and electric utilities, as well as municipal water and wastewater customers. Over the past several years, each segment has benefited from demand for more efficient and more environmentally friendly energy and power facilities, local highway and bridge needs and from the strength of the oil and gas industry; however, each of these industries and the government agencies periodically are adversely affected by macroeconomic conditions. Economic factors outside of our control affect the number and size of contracts in any particular period.
We and our customers are operating in a challenging business environment in light of the on-going economic uncertainty and weak capital markets. We believe we and our customers are not directly impacted by the volatile economic issues being experienced in the European marketplace. We are closely monitoring our customers and the effect that changes in economic and market conditions may have on them. We have experienced reduced spending by some of our customers over the last several years, which we attribute to negative economic and market conditions, and we anticipate that these negative conditions may continue to affect demand for our services in the near-term. However, we believe that most of our customers, some of whom are regulated utilities, remain financially stable in general and will be able to continue with their business plans in the long-term without substantial constraints.
Seasonality and cyclicality
Our results of operations are subject to quarterly variations. Some of the variation is the result of weather, particularly rain, which can impact our ability to perform construction services. The weather also limits our ability to bid for and perform pipeline integrity testing and routine maintenance for our utility customers underground systems since the systems are used for heating. In most years, utility owners obtain bids and award contracts for major maintenance, integrity and replacement work after the heating season, and the work must be completed by the following year. In addition, demand for new projects can be lower during the early part of the year due to clients internal budget cycles. As a result, we usually experience higher revenues and earnings in the third and fourth quarters of the year as compared to the first two quarters. We are also dependent on large construction projects which tend not to be seasonal, but can fluctuate from year to year based on
general economic conditions. Because of the cyclical nature of our business, the financial results for any period may fluctuate from prior periods, and our financial condition and operating results may vary from quarter-to-quarter. Results from one quarter may not be indicative of our financial condition or operating results for any other quarter or for an entire year.
Our industry can be highly cyclical. As a result, our volume of business may be adversely affected by declines or delays in new projects in various geographic regions in the United States. We have expanded our services both geographically and in the markets we serve, resulting in some counter-cyclical benefits. Project schedules, in particular in connection with larger, longer-term projects, can also create fluctuations in the services provided, which may adversely affect us in a given period. The financial condition of our customers and their access to capital, variations in the margins of projects performed during any particular period, regional, national and global economic and market conditions, timing of acquisitions, the timing and magnitude of acquisition assimilation costs, interest rate fluctuations and other factors may also materially affect our periodic results. Accordingly, our operating results for any particular period may not be indicative of the results that can be expected for any other period.

Revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 were $337.4 million and $629.0 million, which were reductions of $14.5 million (4.1%) and $82.6 million (11.6%) from the prior year, respectively. The respective prior year periods included revenue of $89.5 million and $216.4 million for the Ruby pipeline project, substantially completed in 2011. Excluding the Ruby revenue impact, revenues increased by $75.0 million and $121.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. The increased revenues are primarily as a result of increased project work in the West Construction Services segment for both industrial and underground projects as well as the impact of the March 2012 acquisition of Sprint, which contributed $12.8 million and $14.9 million in revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.
Gross profit increased by $2.6 million, or 6.3%, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and decreased by $0.4 million, or 0.5%, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same periods in 2011. Gross profit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 included gross profit for the Ruby project of $14.4 million and $25.5 million. Excluding the impact of the prior year Ruby pipeline project at Rockford, gross profit for the second quarter 2012 increased by $17.4 million and for the six-month period increased by $16.8 million compared to the same periods in the previous year. The increases in gross margin were due primarily to the increased project work in the West Construction Services segment as well as the gross margin contribution from the March 2012 acquisition of Sprint, which contributed $3.8 million and $4.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.
Gross profit as a percent of revenues increased to 13.0% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to 11.8% and 11.5% in the same period in 2011, respectively. The margin improvement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was primarily due to the higher margins contributed by increased project work in the West Construction Services segment and due to the impact of a lower gross margin in the prior year of the Ruby pipeline project.

Revenue for the East Construction Services segment increased by $11.5 million, or 8.0%, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and by $5.3 million, or 1.9%, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same periods in the prior year. The revenue increase was due primarily to the March 2012 acquisition of Sprint Pipeline Services, which generated $12.8 million and $14.9 million in revenue for the three and six month periods, respectively, compared to the previous year. Excluding the impact of the Sprint acquisition, revenues decreased by $1.3 million and $9.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease was due primarily to decreased industrial work in the petrochemical sector of the Gulf Coast area, offset by increases in infrastructure and maintenance work. Additionally, heavy civil decreases are due to the substantial completion of a large causeway project in Louisiana in the prior year.
Gross profit for the East Construction Services segment increased by $0.1 million, or 0.4%, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and decrease by $1.6 million, or 5.1%, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same periods in the prior year. The Sprint acquisition contributed $3.8 million and $4.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. The decreased gross margins of $3.7 million and $6.2 million for the three and six months were as a result of lower margins on heavy civil projects, primarily due to startup of the I-35 projects in Texas as well as the impact from the substantial completion of a large causeway project in Louisiana in the prior year.
For the three months ended June 30, 2012, gross profit as a percent of revenues decreased to 11.1% compared to 12.0% in the prior year quarter and decreased to 10.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to 11.1% in the same period in the previous year primarily as a result of decreased margin percentages realized on heavy civil projects, especially the startup of the I-35 projects in Texas.

Revenue for the West Construction Services segment decreased by $29.3 million, or 14.9%, and by $91.4 million, or 21.9%, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same periods in 2011. The three and six months ended June 30, 2011 included revenue of $89.5 million and $216.4 million for the Ruby pipeline project, substantially complete in 2011. Excluding the revenue impact of the Ruby pipeline project at Rockford, revenues increased by $60.2 million and $112.4 million for the respective periods. Revenues for our California underground business increased by $22.8 million and $52.7 million, and our industrial business increased by $19.2 million and $34.2 million, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. A significant contributor to the underground increase was pipeline integrity work for the major California gas utilities while work on power plants provided the major increase for the industrial business.
Gross profit for the West Construction Services segment increased by $2.6 million, or 12.0%, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and $2.2 million, or 4.8%, for the six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2011. Gross profit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 included gross profit for the Ruby pipeline project at Rockford of $14.4 million and $25.5 million. Excluding the impact of the prior year completion of the Ruby pipeline project, gross profit for the second quarter increased by $17.4 million and gross profit for the six month period increased by $19.5 million compared to the same periods in the previous year. The primary reason for the increase was the significant increase in volume in both the underground and industrial projects.
Gross profit as a percent of revenues increased to 14.5% during the three months ended June 30, 2012 from 11.0% in the same period in 2011, and for the six months ended June 30, 2012, gross profit as a percent of revenue increased to 15.0% compared to 11.1% in the same period in the prior year. Gross profit as a percent of revenues for the underground business in the prior year were impacted by the lower gross margins of the Ruby pipeline project. The industrial business margins were impacted in the prior year by delays and contingencies recorded on a large power plant construction project. As of June 30, 2012, the power plant project is nearing completion and change orders have returned the project to profitability.

Revenue for the Engineering segment increased by $3.3 million, or 30.5%, and by $3.5 million or 15.9% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2011. The increase is mainly due to the completion of several furnace upgrade and refurbishment projects for two major US chemical companies.
Gross profit for the Engineering segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 decreased by $0.1 million and $1.1 million, compared to the same periods in 2011. The decrease was primarily the result of lower profit margins achieved in international projects at our Canadian location and higher margin project closeouts in the prior year.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) increased $2.9 million, or 14.3% and $3.3 million, or 8.3%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, compared to the same period in 2011. The $2.9 million increase for the three month period included $2.0 million as a result of the Sprint acquisition, a $0.5 million increase in legal expenses, a $0.2 million increase in amortization of intangible assets and an increase of $0.8 million in other overhead expenses, offset by a reduction in compensation expenses of $0.6 million. The $3.3 million increase for the six month period included $2.8 million as a result of the Sprint acquisition, a $0.3 million increase in legal expenses, a $0.3 million increase in amortization of intangible assets and an increase of $1.1 million in other overhead expenses, offset by a net reduction in compensation expenses of $1.2 million.
SG&A as a percentage of revenue increased to 6.9% and 7.0% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, from 5.8% and 5.6% for the same period in 2011 primarily as a result of the significant decrease in revenues. Excluding the impact of Sprint, SG&A as a percentage of revenues was 6.6% and 6.5% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.

For the three months ended June 30, 2012, the loss from non-consolidated investments was $0.2 million, primarily due to a loss recorded at Wespac. Income from non-consolidated investments for the six months ended June 30, 2012 of $0.9 million included $1.1 million from the St.-Bernard joint venture, offset by a loss in Wespac of $0.1 million. As a result of the St. Bernard joint venture nearing completion, income from non-consolidated investments decreased $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period in the prior year.
Foreign exchange losses for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and for the same period in 2011 reflect currency exchange fluctuations of the United States dollar compared to the Canadian dollar. Some of our business is conducted in Canadian dollars, and we acquire assets and liabilities using Canadian dollars. For financial statement purposes, we convert these transactions to United States dollars creating currency exchange gains or losses.
Other expense of $0.4 million and $0.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively represents the change in the estimated fair value of the contingent earnout liabilities for the Rockford and Sprint acquisitions.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, interest expense was $1.0 million and $2.1 million, respectively, compared to $1.4 million and $2.7 million for the same periods in 2011. The decrease over both the prior periods was due primarily to the final payoff of the subordinated debt from the JCG subordinated notes in March 2012 and as a result of lower interest rates obtained upon refinancing certain commercial notes in the second quarter 2012.
Provision for income taxes
Our provision for income tax decreased $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to $7.4 million and decreased $3.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $13.9 million, compared to the same periods in 2011 as a result of lower earnings. To determine our quarterly provision for income taxes, we use an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is based on expected annual income, statutory tax rates and tax planning opportunities available in the various jurisdictions in which we operate. Certain significant or unusual items are separately recognized in the quarter in which they occur and can be a source of variability in the effective tax rate from quarter to quarter. The tax rate applied for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was 38.5% as compared to 39.0% for the same period in 2011.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity represents our ability to meet our future business operations, our planned capital expenditures, and our needs for working capital, tax payments, earn-out obligations and debt service. Our primary sources of liquidity are our cash balances at the beginning of each period and our net cash flow. In addition to cash flow from operations, we have availability under our lines of credit to potentially augment liquidity needs. In order to maintain sufficient liquidity, we evaluate our working capital requirements on a regular basis. We may elect to raise additional capital by issuing common stock, convertible notes, term debt or increasing our credit facility as necessary to fund our operations or to fund the acquisition of new businesses.
At June 30, 2012, our balance sheet included net cash and cash equivalents of $119.3 million. We currently have the following credit facilities:
· a $20 million credit facility that expires on October 26, 2014, under which we can issue letters of credit for up to $15 million. At June 30, 2012, we have issued letters of credit of $4.8 million on this facility, resulting in $15.2 million in available borrowing capacity;
· a credit facility of $15 million, with the full borrowing amount available at June 30, 2012, which expires on October 25, 2012; and
· a $10 million (Canadian dollars) facility for commercial letters of credit in Canada. The credit facility has an annual renewal and provides for the issuance of commercial letters of credit for a term of up to five years. At June 30, 2012, $1.6 million of letters of credit (Canadian dollars) were outstanding, with $8.4 million available under this credit facility for additional letters of credit.

The table above summarizes the cash flow elements provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 which decreased by $12.2 million compared to the same period in 2011. Amortization of intangible assets has decrease by $2.3 million as the JCG and Rockford acquisitions in 2009 and 2010 have amortized their acquired intangible assets, especially the shorter lived backlog intangible assets. As a result of the St. Bernard joint venture nearing completion at June 30, 2012, non-consolidated entity distributions have decreased by $4.7 million compared to the prior year. The provision for income taxes decreased by $3.2 million as a result of lower pretax income during the six months ended June 30, 2012.
The significant components of the $2.1 million change in assets and liabilities from the December 31, 2011 balance sheet amounts are summarized as follows:
· a $20.8 million decrease in accounts receivable. At June 30, 2012, accounts receivable represented 23.8% of total assets. We continue to have an excellent collection history for our receivables and have certain lien rights that can provide additional security for collection;
· a $8.7 million increase in customer retention deposits and restricted cash as a result of increased retention deposits on three large power plant projects in the West Construction Services segment;
· a $2.0 million decrease in accounts payable;
· costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings increased by $3.0 million primarily as a result of the addition of Sprint operations;
· billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings decreased by $6.5 million;
· inventory, prepaid expenses and other current assets increased by $0.2 million;
· other long-term liabilities decreased by $2.2 million;
· accrued expenses and other current liabilities increased by $6.4 million due to increased reserves for estimated expenses on completed projects in the West Construction Services segment; and
· a $2.9 million decrease in contingent earn-out liabilities.
The decreases in accounts receivable and billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings are primarily related to the lower volume in the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, compared with the same period in 2011.
Investing activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we purchased property and equipment for $12.4 million in cash, compared to $10.8 million during the same period in 2011. The purchases were principally for construction equipment. We believe the ownership of equipment is generally preferable to renting equipment on a project by project basis, as ownership helps to ensure the equipment is available for our workloads when needed. In addition, ownership has historically resulted in lower overall equipment costs.
We periodically buy and sell equipment, as part of our overall fleet management program. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we received proceeds from the sale of used equipment of $6.7 million compared to $1.0 million for same period in 2011. For the past few years, we have rented major equipment not used for our own projects to third parties, but with the current economic environment, equipment rentals have decreased.
As part of our cash management program, we sold $23.0 million in short term investments during the sixth months ended June 30, 2012. In the six months ended June 30, 2011, we purchased $23 million and sold $26 million in short term investments. Short term investments consist primarily of CDs purchased through the CDARS (Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service) process and U.S. Treasury bills with various financial institutions that are backed by the federal government FDIC program.
In March 2012, we used $35.1 million in cash for the acquisitions of Sprint and Silva.
Financing activities
Financing activities used $22.9 million of cash during the six months ended June 30, 2012. Significant transactions using cash flows from financing activities included:
· $15.3 million reduction of long-term debt and capital leases as a result of both loan repayments and refinancing of higher interest rate loans, offset by the proceeds from the new debt of $12.8 million at lower interest rates.
· $17.5 million in total payments of the subordinated notes related to both the JCG and Rockford acquisitions, which included the March 14, 2012 payment in full of the JCG subordinated notes.
· $1.2 million was recorded as equity for the issuance of 111,790 shares purchased by our employees under the Primoris Long-Term Retention Plan
· Dividends of $3.1 million were paid to our stockholders during the six months ended June 30, 2012 representing an annualized dividend rate of $0.12 per share of common stock.
· $1.0 million in purchases of Company common stock under the Companys stock repurchase program.
Capital requirements
We believe that we will be able to support our ongoing working capital needs for the next twelve months using cash on hand, short term investments, operating cash flows and the availability under our existing credit facilities. In order to meet the needs of our continued growth, we intend to spend approximately $30 million during the calendar year 2012, primarily on purchases of construction equipment.
Common stock
In March 2012, the Company issued 111,790 shares of common stock to managers and executives of the Company under a purchase arrangement within the Companys Long-Term Incentive Plan. The Company issued 12,395 shares of common stock in February 2012 as part of the quarterly compensation of non-employee members of the Board of Directors. Additionally, as part of the acquisition of Sprint, the Company issued 62,052 shares of common stock in March 2012.
In April 2012, the Company issued 232,637 shares of common stock to the Rockford sellers as a result of Rockford meeting a defined performance target in 2011.
In May 2012, the Companys Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program under which the Company may, from time to time and depending on market conditions, share price and other factors, acquire shares of its common stock on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions up to an aggregate purchase price of $20 million. During the three months ending June 30, 2012, the Company purchased and cancelled 89,600 shares of stock for $1.0 million at an average cost of $11.17 per share. The share repurchase program expires December 31, 2012.

(1) The interest amount assumes principal payments are made as originally scheduled in the obligations.
(2) In November 2011, the Company placed $5.0 million in an interest bearing escrow account. As permitted by the terms of the subordinated note agreement, the amount will remain in escrow until resolution of a dispute related to a certain liability at the time of the Rockford acquisition.
Off-balance sheet transactions
The following represent transactions, obligations or relationships that could be considered material off-balance sheet arrangements.
· Letters of credit issued under our lines of credit. At June 30, 2012, we had letters of credit outstanding of $10.2 million.
· Equipment operating leases with a balance of $9.6 million at June 30, 2012.
· In the ordinary course of our business, we may be required by our customers to post surety bid or completion bonds in connection with services that we provide. At June 30, 2011, we had $1,108.0 million in outstanding bonds.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and also affect the amounts of revenues and expenses reported for each period. These estimates and assumptions must be made because certain information that is used in the preparation of our financial statements cannot be calculated with a high degree of precision from data available, is dependent on future events, or is not capable of being readily calculated based on generally accepted methodologies. Often, these estimates are particularly difficult to determine and we must exercise significant judgment. Estimates may be used in our assessments of revenue recognition under percentage-of-completion accounting, the allowance for doubtful accounts, useful lives of property and equipment, fair value assumptions in analyzing goodwill and long-lived asset impairments, self-insured claims liabilities and deferred income taxes. Actual results could differ from those that result from using the estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Our critical accounting policies, as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, relate to fixed price contracts, revenue recognition, income taxes, goodwill, long-lived assets and reserve for uninsured risks. Recently, the FASB has issued new guidelines for options of using qualitative factors in testing for potential impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, which the Company is adopting during 2012. To date, goodwill of $103.6 million has arisen from acquisitions and is recorded at our reporting units as follows:
· JCG in the East Construction Services segment, $59.3 million
· Rockford in the West Construction Services segment, $32.1 million
· Sprint in the East Construction Services segment, $9.4 million
· Cardinal Contractors in the East Construction Services segment, $2.4 million; and
· Born Canada in the Engineering segment, $0.4 million
At June 30, 2012, net intangible assets amounted to $32.4 million. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies since December 31, 2011.
Backlog
In the industries in which we operate, backlog can be considered an indicator of potential future performance because it represents a portion of the future revenue stream. Different companies in our industry define backlog differently. We consider backlog as the anticipated revenue from the uncompleted portions of existing contracts. We calculate backlog differently for different types of contracts. For our fixed price and fixed unit price contracts, we include the full remaining portion of the contract in our calculation. Since their ultimate revenue amount is difficult to determine, we do not include time-and-equipment, time-and-materials and cost-plus contracts in the calculation of backlog.
Our contracts may be terminated by our customers on relatively short notice. In the event of a project cancellation, we may be reimbursed for certain costs, but typically we have no contractual right to the total revenues reflected in backlog. Projects may remain in backlog for extended periods of time.

As of June 30, 2012, our total backlog was $1.09 billion representing a decrease of $79.4 million, or 6.8%, from $1.17 billion as of December 31, 2011. We expect that approximately 61% of the total backlog at June 30, 2012 will be recognized as revenue during the remainder of 2012, with $420 million expected for the East Construction Services segment, $228 million for the West Construction Services segment and $14 million for the Engineering segment.
Backlog should not be considered a comprehensive indicator of future revenues, as a percentage of our revenues are derived from projects that are not part of a backlog calculation.
Revenues recognized from non-backlog projects are generated by projects completed under time-and-equipment, time-and-materials and cost-reimbursable-plus-fee contracts.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
In the ordinary course of business, we are exposed to risks related to market conditions. These risks primarily include fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices. We may seek to manage these risks through the use of financial derivative instruments. These instruments may include foreign currency exchange contracts and interest rate swaps.
We do not execute transactions or use financial derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We enter into transactions with counter parties that are generally financial institutions in a matter to limit significant exposure with any one party.
The carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, short-term debt and accounts payable and accrued liabilities shown in the consolidated balance sheets approximate fair value at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 due to the generally short maturities of these items. At June 30, 2012, we had no short-term investments. At December 31, 2011, we held short term investments which were primarily in four to six month certificates of deposits (CDs) through the CDARS (Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service) process and U. S. Treasury bills with various financial institutions that are backed by the federal government FDIC program.
At June 30, 2012, all of our long-term debt was under fixed interest rates.
At June 30, 2012, we had no derivative financial instruments. We may hedge foreign currency risks in the future in those situations where we believe such transactions are prudent.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of June 30, 2012, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer (CEO) and chief financial officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e).
Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that, at June 30, 2012, the disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and in reaching a reasonable level of assurance our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. The Companys disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their stated objectives.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the last fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2012, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
From time to time, we are subject to claims and legal proceedings arising out of our business. Our management believes that we have meritorious defenses to such claims. Although we are unable to ascertain the ultimate outcome of such matters, after review and consultation with counsel and taking into consideration relevant insurance coverage and related deductibles, our management believes that the outcome of these matters will not have a materially adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
In addition to the other information set forth in this Report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in the section entitled Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, which to our knowledge have not materially changed. Those risks, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results, are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
As part of the consideration for the acquisition of Sprint, the Company issued 62,052 shares of unregistered common stock in March 2012.
In April 2012, the Company issued 232,637 shares of unregistered common stock to the Rockford sellers as a result of Rockford meeting a 2011 defined performance target under the Purchase Agreement.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.
None.
