NORWALK, CONNECTICUT, October 28, 2021 - EMCOR Group, Inc. (NYSE: EME) today reported results for the quarter ended September 30, 2021.
For the third quarter of 2021, net income was $99.7 million, or $1.85 per diluted share, compared to net income of $61.2 million, or $1.11 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2020. Net income for the third quarter of 2020 was negatively impacted by the tax effect of the goodwill, identifiable intangible asset, and other long-lived asset impairment charges recorded in the second quarter of 2020 within our U.S. Industrial Services segment. Excluding such tax effect, non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of 2020 was $97.0 million, or $1.76 per diluted share. Revenues for the third quarter of 2021 totaled $2.52 billion, up 14.5% from the third quarter of 2020.
Operating income for the third quarter of 2021 was $137.4 million, or 5.4% of revenues, compared to operating income of $135.9 million, or 6.2% of revenues, for the third quarter of 2020.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2021 totaled $243.9 million, or 9.7% of revenues, compared to $226.8 million, or 10.3% of revenues, for the third quarter of 2020.
The Company's income tax rate for the third quarter of 2021 was 27.2%, compared to an income tax rate of 54.7% for the third quarter of 2020. The Company’s tax rate for the third quarter of 2020 was impacted by the previously referenced tax effect of the impairment charges recorded in the second quarter of 2020.
Remaining performance obligations as of September 30, 2021 were $5.38 billion, compared to $4.53 billion as of September 30, 2020. Total remaining performance obligations grew approximately $848.6 million year-over-year.

Tony Guzzi, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of EMCOR, commented, “Building off the momentum from the first half of the year, the Company delivered strong results in the third quarter with double-digit year-over-year revenue growth across all segments, resulting in record quarterly revenues, net income, and diluted earnings per share, as well as third quarter records for gross profit and operating income. Importantly, demand for our services remained robust as remaining performance obligations increased 18.7% year-over-year to a record $5.38 billion.”
Mr. Guzzi added, “Our U.S. Construction segments executed exceptionally well, posting combined record revenues, up 12.0% year-over-year, as well as strong operating income margins, reflecting our team’s continued resilience and ability to navigate a challenging operating environment. While global supply chains continue to present us with challenges, we were able to mitigate the majority of these disruptions, within our construction segments, through a combination of diligent planning coupled with excellent supplier relationships. Our U.S. Building Services segment faced the most difficult comparison given the significant non-recurring cost cutting measures taken in the prior year period due to the pandemic. While this, combined with the recent supply chain challenges and increased fuel prices versus the prior year, impacted operating margins, the segment still delivered a solid 5.0% operating margin and grew revenues by 13.6%. Our U.S. Industrial Services segment operated as expected, with 35.4% revenue growth as demand for our services continued to build versus the prior year period, which was significantly impacted by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. We expect to execute a better fall turnaround season versus the year ago period, as well as benefit from improved demand heading into 2022. Finally, our U.K. Building Services segment continued to grow and deliver for its customers, resulting in double-digit year-over-year revenue and operating income growth of 17.6% and 23.6%, respectively, partially aided by favorable foreign exchange rates.”
Revenues for the first nine months of 2021 totaled $7.26 billion, an increase of 11.5%, compared to $6.52 billion for the first nine months of 2020. Net income for the first nine months of 2021 was $281.9 million, or $5.17 per diluted share, compared to net income of $53.2 million, or $0.96 per diluted share, for the first nine months of 2020. Excluding the impact of the previously referenced impairment charges recorded in the second quarter of 2020, non-GAAP net income for the first nine months of 2020 was $251.8 million, or $4.54 per diluted share.
Operating income for the first nine months of 2021 was $387.8 million, representing an operating margin of 5.3%, compared to operating income of $119.2 million and an operating margin of 1.8% for the first nine months of 2020. Excluding the $232.8 million of non-cash impairment charges recorded in the second quarter of 2020, non-GAAP operating income for the first nine months of 2020 was $352.0 million, representing a non-GAAP operating margin of 5.4%.
Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $710.9 million, or 9.8% of revenues, for the first nine months of 2021, compared to $659.0 million, or 10.1% of revenues, for the first nine months of 2020.
Please see the attached tables for a reconciliation of non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share to the comparable GAAP measures for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Based on our year-to-date performance, EMCOR is raising its full-year 2021 revenue guidance to $9.80 billion to $9.85 billion, an increase from the prior guidance of approximately $9.50 billion. The Company now also expects full-year 2021 diluted earnings per share to be in the range of $6.95 to $7.15, an increase from the prior guidance range of $6.65 to $7.05.
Mr. Guzzi concluded, “Given our strong year-to-date results and record remaining performance obligations, we are raising our full year 2021 guidance for revenue and diluted earnings per share. Despite recent supply chain challenges and continued COVID-related hurdles, we remain committed to delivering best-in-class services to our customers, maintaining a balanced capital allocation strategy, and driving long-term value for our shareholders. I am proud of our employees’ resilience and am confident that with our healthy balance sheet, robust project pipeline and disciplined execution, we are positioned for long-term sustainable growth.”
Additional Share Repurchase Program
The Company also announced today that its Board of Directors has authorized a new share repurchase program for the Company to repurchase up to an additional $300 million of its outstanding common stock.
Mr. Guzzi said, “This new share repurchase program reflects our Board’s confidence in EMCOR’s strong free cash flow and overall financial position. We are excited about the growth opportunities within each of our segments and remain committed to creating long-term shareholder value through a combination of organic investments, accretive acquisitions, share repurchases, and dividends.”
As of September 30, 2021, the Company had already repurchased $137.3 million of its outstanding common stock under its current $200 million share repurchase program launched in March 2020. The new share repurchase program will be funded from the Company’s operations. The shares will be repurchased from time to time in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions at the Company’s discretion, subject to market conditions and in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock and may be suspended, recommenced, or discontinued at any time or from time to time without prior notice.
