Tony Guzzi, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of EMCOR, commented, “The Company reported exceptional results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2023, achieving record quarterly and annual revenues, operating income, operating margin, and diluted earnings per share. As we look forward, we continue to expect demand for our services to remain strong, which is reflected in the 18.6% year-over-year increase in our remaining performance obligations.” Mr. Guzzi added, “Our U.S. Construction segments posted another quarter of exceptional results, concluding an outstanding year. On a combined basis, these segments achieved record revenues and operating income for both the fourth quarter and full year. We remain confident in the future of these businesses given several tailwinds working in our favor, including a strong project pipeline with a solid margin profile. Our U.S. Mechanical Construction segment had a particularly exceptional year with 18.2% annual revenue growth, all of which was organic, driven by strong performance across virtually all end markets. We believe that our investments in building information modeling, prefabrication, digital tools, and robotics have increased our productivity, yielding positive results and enhancing our operational efficiencies across this segment, as evidenced in part by an operating margin of 10.5% for the full year. Our U.S. Electrical Construction segment continued to perform very well as we benefited from consistent strong demand, particularly in the data center market, the energy sector, including several renewable energy projects, and the healthcare market sector, all of which is reflected in the segment’s revenue growth of 14.4% and operating margin of 8.3% for the full year. This segment also benefited from growth within the high-tech manufacturing market sector as demand for our electrical construction services strengthened throughout the year. Our U.S. Building Services segment had another strong year with revenue growth of 13.3% year-over-year. Key end markets remained resilient with energy efficiency and indoor air quality projects driving retrofit demand. Our U.S. Industrial Services segment continued to improve at a measured pace, delivering revenue growth of 4.4% and operating income growth of 79%, year-over-year. Our U.K. Building Services segment reported an operating margin of 5.9% for the full year, despite operating in a challenged macroeconomic environment.” Full Year 2024 Guidance Based on expected project mix and our current visibility into the coming year, EMCOR expects full-year 2024 revenues to be between $13.5 billion and $14.0 billion and full-year 2024 diluted earnings per share to be in the range of $14.00 to $15.00. Mr. Guzzi continued, “2023 was another outstanding year for EMCOR, with record-breaking achievements across virtually every metric. Our revenue and operating income growth was exceptional in 2023, driven by our ability to win and execute well in large, growing market sectors such as high-tech manufacturing, network and communications, manufacturing and industrial, and healthcare, all of which are benefiting from long-term secular trends that require excellence in specialty trade contracting. 2023 was not without its difficulties as the operating environment remained challenging, but we met those challenges with resolve and strong, focused execution, demonstrating the resilience and adaptability of our business as we capitalized on long-term, enduring market trends. Investments in BIM and prefabrication continue to create efficiencies and differentiate us during the bidding process, particularly when coupled with the project-level expertise of our teams in the field and the strength of our balance sheet.” Mr. Guzzi concluded, “We believe our growth strategy continues to position EMCOR for long-term success, as both our organic and inorganic initiatives are driving record performance. Looking forward, we believe we are positioned in the right market sectors and geographies to continue to win complex projects that allow us an opportunity to perform well for our customers. Our record remaining performance obligations provide solid visibility into 2024, despite some macroeconomic headwinds and other factors that could impact our performance and execution. As always, we will continue to maintain our proven and disciplined approach to capital allocation. We remain focused on returning capital to our shareholders, as evidenced by the latest increase in our dividend, and on investing in the sustainable growth of the Company, both in our existing businesses and through our disciplined acquisition strategy. We recently signed agreements to acquire several companies that are leaders in their respective offerings and regions, reflecting our strategy of expanding and complementing the capabilities and geographical footprint of our existing businesses to better serve the evolving needs of our customers.” Dividend Increase The Company today announced that its Board of Directors has approved an increase to the Company’s regular quarterly dividend to $0.25 per share from $0.18 per share. The Board expects to declare this cash dividend starting in the second quarter of 2024. Mr. Guzzi said, “This planned dividend increase is a testament to the exceptional execution of our employees, confidence in our business, and solid financial foundation. We believe our strong performance across key end markets positions us for sustained success going into 2024.” Fourth Quarter Earnings Conference Call Information EMCOR Group's fourth quarter conference call will be available live via internet broadcast today, Wednesday, February 28, at 10:30 AM Eastern Standard Time.

The Company's income tax rate for the 2023 full-year period was 27.5%, compared to 27.3% for the 2022 full-year period. Tony Guzzi, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of EMCOR, commented, “The Company reported exceptional results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2023, achieving record quarterly and annual revenues, operating income, operating margin, and diluted earnings per share. As we look forward, we continue to expect demand for our services to remain strong, which is reflected in the 18.6% year-over-year increase in our remaining performance obligations.” Mr. Guzzi added, “Our U.S. Construction segments posted another quarter of exceptional results, concluding an outstanding year. On a combined basis, these segments achieved record revenues and operating income for both the fourth quarter and full year. We remain confident in the future of these businesses given several tailwinds working in our favor, including a strong project pipeline with a solid margin profile. Our U.S. Mechanical Construction segment had a particularly exceptional year with 18.2% annual revenue growth, all of which was organic, driven by strong performance across virtually all end markets. We believe that our investments in building information modeling, prefabrication, digital tools, and robotics have increased our productivity, yielding positive results and enhancing our operational efficiencies across this segment, as evidenced in part by an operating margin of 10.5% for the full year. Our U.S. Electrical Construction segment continued to perform very well as we benefited from consistent strong demand, particularly in the data center market, the energy sector, including several renewable energy projects, and the healthcare market sector, all of which is reflected in the segment’s revenue growth of 14.4% and operating margin of 8.3% for the full year. This segment also benefited from growth within the high-tech manufacturing market sector as demand for our electrical construction services strengthened throughout the year. Our U.S. Building Services segment had another strong year with revenue growth of 13.3% year-over-year. Key end markets remained resilient with energy efficiency and indoor air quality projects driving retrofit demand. Our U.S. Industrial Services segment continued to improve at a measured pace, delivering revenue growth of 4.4% and operating income growth of 79%, year-over-year. Our U.K. Building Services segment reported an operating margin of 5.9% for the full year, despite operating in a challenged macroeconomic environment.” Full Year 2024 Guidance Based on expected project mix and our current visibility into the coming year, EMCOR expects full-year 2024 revenues to be between $13.5 billion and $14.0 billion and full-year 2024 diluted earnings per share to be in the range of $14.00 to $15.00. Mr. Guzzi continued, “2023 was another outstanding year for EMCOR, with record-breaking achievements across virtually every metric. Our revenue and operating income growth was exceptional in 2023, driven by our ability to win and execute well in large, growing market sectors such as high-tech manufacturing, network and communications, manufacturing and industrial, and healthcare, all of which are benefiting from long-term secular trends that require excellence in specialty trade contracting. 2023 was not without its difficulties as the operating environment remained challenging, but we met those challenges with resolve and strong, focused execution, demonstrating the resilience and adaptability of our business as we capitalized on long-term, enduring market trends. Investments in BIM and prefabrication continue to create efficiencies and differentiate us during the bidding process, particularly when coupled with the project-level expertise of our teams in the field and the strength of our balance sheet.” Mr. Guzzi concluded, “We believe our growth strategy continues to position EMCOR for long-term success, as both our organic and inorganic initiatives are driving record performance. Looking forward, we believe we are positioned in the right market sectors and geographies to continue to win complex projects that allow us an opportunity to perform well for our customers. Our record remaining performance obligations provide solid visibility into 2024, despite some macroeconomic headwinds and other factors that could impact our performance and execution. As always, we will continue to maintain our proven and disciplined approach to capital allocation. We remain focused on returning capital to our shareholders, as evidenced by the latest increase in our dividend, and on investing in the sustainable growth of the Company, both in our existing businesses and through our disciplined acquisition strategy. We recently signed agreements to acquire several companies that are leaders in their respective offerings and regions, reflecting our strategy of expanding and complementing the capabilities and geographical footprint of our existing businesses to better serve the evolving needs of our customers.” Dividend Increase The Company today announced that its Board of Directors has approved an increase to the Company’s regular quarterly dividend to $0.25 per share from $0.18 per share. The Board expects to declare this cash dividend starting in the second quarter of 2024. Mr. Guzzi said, “This planned dividend increase is a testament to the exceptional execution of our employees, confidence in our business, and solid financial foundation. We believe our strong performance across key end markets positions us for sustained success going into 2024.” Fourth Quarter Earnings Conference Call Information EMCOR Group's fourth quarter conference call will be available live via internet broadcast today, Wednesday, February 28, at 10:30 AM Eastern Standard Time.

Tony Guzzi, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of EMCOR, commented, “The Company reported exceptional results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2023, achieving record quarterly and annual revenues, operating income, operating margin, and diluted earnings per share. As we look forward, we continue to expect demand for our services to remain strong, which is reflected in the 18.6% year-over-year increase in our remaining performance obligations.” Mr. Guzzi added, “Our U.S. Construction segments posted another quarter of exceptional results, concluding an outstanding year. On a combined basis, these segments achieved record revenues and operating income for both the fourth quarter and full year. We remain confident in the future of these businesses given several tailwinds working in our favor, including a strong project pipeline with a solid margin profile. Our U.S. Mechanical Construction segment had a particularly exceptional year with 18.2% annual revenue growth, all of which was organic, driven by strong performance across virtually all end markets. We believe that our investments in building information modeling, prefabrication, digital tools, and robotics have increased our productivity, yielding positive results and enhancing our operational efficiencies across this segment, as evidenced in part by an operating margin of 10.5% for the full year. Our U.S. Electrical Construction segment continued to perform very well as we benefited from consistent strong demand, particularly in the data center market, the energy sector, including several renewable energy projects, and the healthcare market sector, all of which is reflected in the segment’s revenue growth of 14.4% and operating margin of 8.3% for the full year. This segment also benefited from growth within the high-tech manufacturing market sector as demand for our electrical construction services strengthened throughout the year. Our U.S. Building Services segment had another strong year with revenue growth of 13.3% year-over-year. Key end markets remained resilient with energy efficiency and indoor air quality projects driving retrofit demand. Our U.S. Industrial Services segment continued to improve at a measured pace, delivering revenue growth of 4.4% and operating income growth of 79%, year-over-year. Our U.K. Building Services segment reported an operating margin of 5.9% for the full year, despite operating in a challenged macroeconomic environment.” Full Year 2024 Guidance Based on expected project mix and our current visibility into the coming year, EMCOR expects full-year 2024 revenues to be between $13.5 billion and $14.0 billion and full-year 2024 diluted earnings per share to be in the range of $14.00 to $15.00. Mr. Guzzi continued, “2023 was another outstanding year for EMCOR, with record-breaking achievements across virtually every metric. Our revenue and operating income growth was exceptional in 2023, driven by our ability to win and execute well in large, growing market sectors such as high-tech manufacturing, network and communications, manufacturing and industrial, and healthcare, all of which are benefiting from long-term secular trends that require excellence in specialty trade contracting. 2023 was not without its difficulties as the operating environment remained challenging, but we met those challenges with resolve and strong, focused execution, demonstrating the resilience and adaptability of our business as we capitalized on long-term, enduring market trends. Investments in BIM and prefabrication continue to create efficiencies and differentiate us during the bidding process, particularly when coupled with the project-level expertise of our teams in the field and the strength of our balance sheet.” Mr. Guzzi concluded, “We believe our growth strategy continues to position EMCOR for long-term success, as both our organic and inorganic initiatives are driving record performance. Looking forward, we believe we are positioned in the right market sectors and geographies to continue to win complex projects that allow us an opportunity to perform well for our customers. Our record remaining performance obligations provide solid visibility into 2024, despite some macroeconomic headwinds and other factors that could impact our performance and execution. As always, we will continue to maintain our proven and disciplined approach to capital allocation. We remain focused on returning capital to our shareholders, as evidenced by the latest increase in our dividend, and on investing in the sustainable growth of the Company, both in our existing businesses and through our disciplined acquisition strategy. We recently signed agreements to acquire several companies that are leaders in their respective offerings and regions, reflecting our strategy of expanding and complementing the capabilities and geographical footprint of our existing businesses to better serve the evolving needs of our customers.” Dividend Increase The Company today announced that its Board of Directors has approved an increase to the Company’s regular quarterly dividend to $0.25 per share from $0.18 per share.
