Matrix Service Company

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Matrix Service Company (“Matrix”, “we”, “our”, “us”, “its” or the “Company”) and its subsidiaries, unless otherwise indicated. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X for interim financial statements required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not include all information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. However, the information furnished reflects all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments and other adjustments described herein, that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations, cash flows and financial position for the interim periods presented. The accompanying condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2015 , included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year then ended.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Accounting Standards Update 2014-09 (Topic 606), Revenue from Contracts with Customers

On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09. The standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the revenue model is that “an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.” The ASU also requires entities to disclose both quantitative and qualitative information that enables users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The ASU’s disclosure requirements are significantly more comprehensive than those in existing revenue standards. The ASU applies to all contracts with customers except those that are within the scope of other topics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC").

In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. With the deferral, this ASU is now effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption now permitted on a limited basis. Upon adoption, the Company may elect one of two application methods, a full retrospective application or a modified retrospective application. We expect to adopt this standard on July 1, 2018 and are currently evaluating its expected impact on our financial statements.

Accounting Standards Update 2014-15 (Subtopic 205-40)—Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern : Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

On August 27, 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, which provides guidance on determining when and how reporting entities must disclose going-concern uncertainties in their financial statements. The new standard requires management to perform interim and annual assessments of an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date of issuance of the entity’s financial statements. Further, an entity must provide certain disclosures if there is “substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern.” The FASB believes that requiring management to perform the assessment will enhance the timeliness, clarity, and consistency of related disclosures and improve convergence with international financial reporting standards ("IFRSs") (which emphasize management’s responsibility for performing the going-concern assessment). However, the time horizon for the assessment (look-forward period) and the disclosure thresholds under U.S. GAAP and IFRSs will continue to differ. The ASU is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods thereafter;

early adoption is permitted. We expect to adopt this standard in fiscal 2017.

Accounting Standards Update 2015-15—Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements—Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to Staff Announcement at June 18, 2015 EITF Meeting (SEC Update)

- 8 -

presenting debt issuance costs as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement.” For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We expect to adopt this standard in fiscal 2017. The adoption of this standard will have no impact on the Company's presentation of debt issuance costs.

Accounting Standards Update 2015-16—Business Combinations (Topic 805)— Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments

On September 25, 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16 to simplify the accounting for measurement-period adjustments. The ASU was issued in response to stakeholder feedback that restatements of prior periods to reflect adjustments made to provisional amounts recognized in a business combination increase the cost and complexity of financial reporting but do not significantly improve the usefulness of the information. Under the ASU, an acquirer must recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The ASU also requires acquirers to present separately on the face of the income statement, or disclose in the notes, the portion of the amount recorded in current-period earnings by line item that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. For public business entities, the ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We expect to adopt this standard in fiscal 2017.

Note 2 – Acquisition

Purchase of HDB Ltd. Limited Partnership

On August 22, 2014 , the Company purchased substantially all of the assets of HDB Ltd. Limited Partnership ("HDB"). HDB, headquartered in Bakersfield, California provides construction, fabrication and turnaround services to energy companies throughout California’s central valley. The acquisition advances a strategic goal of the Company to expand into the upstream energy market. The acquisition purchase price was $5.3 million and was funded with cash on hand. Commencing on August 22, 2014, HDB's operating results are included in the Oil Gas & Chemical Segment.

The purchase price was allocated to the major categories of assets and liabilities based on their estimated fair value at the acquisition date. The following table summarizes the purchase price allocation (in thousands):

Note 3 – Uncompleted Contracts

Contract terms of the Company’s construction contracts generally provide for progress billings based on project milestones. The excess of costs incurred and estimated earnings over amounts billed on uncompleted contracts is reported as a current asset. The excess of amounts billed over costs incurred and estimated earnings recognized on uncompleted contracts is reported as a current liability. Gross and net amounts on uncompleted contracts are as follows:



	September 30, 2015		June 30, 2015

	$	8,329	$	(10,633	)

Progress billings in accounts receivable at September 30, 2015 and June 30, 2015 included retentions to be collected within one year of $26.3 million and $25.2 million , respectively. Contract retentions collectible beyond one year are included in Other Assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and totaled $1.0 million at September 30, 2015 and $2.8 million at June 30, 2015 .

Other

In the three months ended September 30, 2014 our results of operations were materially impacted by charges resulting from a change in estimate related to an acquired EPC joint venture project in the Electrical Infrastructure segment. The charges resulted in a reduction to operating income of $3.3 million and an after-tax reduction of $1.3 million to net income attributable to Matrix Service Company. The Company reached substantial completion in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 on the project and is currently working through project closeout.

Note 5 – Debt

The Company has a five-year $200.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility under a credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") that expires March 13, 2019 . Advances under the credit facility may be used for working capital, acquisitions, capital expenditures, issuances of letters of credit and other lawful purposes.

The Credit Agreement includes the following covenants and borrowing limitations:


•	Our Senior Leverage Ratio, as defined in the agreement, may not exceed 2.50 to 1.00 , determined as of the end of each fiscal quarter.


•	We are required to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, as defined in the agreement, greater than or equal to 1.25 to 1.00 , determined as of the end of each fiscal quarter.


•	Asset dispositions (other than inventory and obsolete or unneeded equipment disposed of in the ordinary course of business) are limited to $20.0 million per 12-month period.

Amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreement bear interest at LIBOR or an Alternate Base Rate, plus in each case, an additional margin based on the Senior Leverage Ratio. The additional margin on Alternate Base Rate and LIBOR-based loans ranges between 0.25% and 1.0% and between 1.25% and 2.0% , respectively.

The Credit Agreement also permits us to borrow in Canadian dollars with a sublimit of U.S. $40.0 million . Amounts borrowed in Canadian dollars will bear interest either at the CDOR Rate, plus an additional margin based on the Senior Leverage Ratio ranging from 1.25% to 2.0% , or at the Canadian Prime Rate, plus an additional margin based on the Senior Leverage Ratio ranging from 1.75% to 2.5% . The CDOR Rate is equal to the sum of the annual rate of interest, which is the rate determined as being the arithmetic average of the quotations of all institutions listed in respect of the relevant CDOR interest period for Canadian Dollar denominated bankers’ acceptances, plus 0.1% . The Canadian Prime Rate is equal to the greater of (i) the rate of interest per annum most recently announced or established by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Toronto Branch as its reference rate in effect on such day for determining interest rates for Canadian Dollar denominated commercial loans in Canada and (ii) the CDOR Rate plus 1.0%.

The Unused Credit Facility Fee is between 0.20% and 0.35% based on the Senior Leverage Ratio.

The Credit Agreement includes a Senior Leverage Ratio covenant, which provides that Consolidated Funded Indebtedness, as of the end of any fiscal quarter, may not exceed 2.5 times Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement, over the previous four quarters. For the four quarters ended September 30, 2015 , Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement, was $63.3 million . Accordingly, at September 30, 2015 , there was a restriction on our ability to access the full amount of the credit facility. Consolidated Funded Indebtedness at September 30, 2015 was $25.1 million .

At September 30, 2015 , the Company is in compliance with all affirmative, negative, and financial covenants under the Credit Agreement.

Note 6 – Income Taxes

We use the asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances based on our judgments and estimates are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized in future operating results. Company management believes that realization of deferred tax assets in excess of the valuation allowance is more likely than not. Our estimates are based on facts and circumstances in existence as well as interpretations of existing tax regulations and laws applied to the facts and circumstances.

The Company provides for income taxes regardless of whether it has received a tax assessment. Taxes are provided when it is considered probable that additional taxes will be due in excess of amounts included in the tax return. The Company regularly reviews exposure to additional income taxes due, and as further information is known or events occur, adjustments may be recorded.

Note 7 – Commitments and Contingencies

Insurance Reserves

The Company maintains insurance coverage for various aspects of its operations. However, exposure to potential losses is retained through the use of deductibles, self-insured retentions and coverage limits.

Typically our contracts require us to indemnify our customers for injury, damage or loss arising from the performance of our services and provide warranties for materials and workmanship. The Company may also be required to name the customer as an additional insured up to the limits of insurance available, or we may be required to purchase special insurance policies or surety bonds for specific customers or provide letters of credit in lieu of bonds to satisfy performance and financial guarantees on some projects. Matrix maintains a performance and payment bonding line sufficient to support the business. The Company generally requires its subcontractors to indemnify the Company and the Company’s customer and name the Company as an additional insured for activities arising out of the subcontractors’ work. We also require certain subcontractors to provide additional insurance policies, including surety bonds in favor of the Company, to secure the subcontractors’ work or as required by the subcontract.

There can be no assurance that our insurance and the additional insurance coverage provided by our subcontractors will fully protect us against a valid claim or loss under the contracts with our customers.

Unapproved Change Orders and Claims

Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts included revenues for unapproved change orders and claims of $13.1 million at September 30, 2015 and $12.7 million at June 30, 2015 . Generally, collection of amounts related to unapproved change orders and claims is expected within twelve months. However, since customers may not pay these amounts until final resolution of related claims, collection of these amounts may extend beyond one year.

Other

The Company and its subsidiaries are participants in various legal actions. It is the opinion of management that none of the known legal actions will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Note 8 – Earnings per Common Share

Basic earnings per share (“Basic EPS”) is calculated based on the weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share (“Diluted EPS”) includes the dilutive effect of stock options and nonvested deferred shares.

The computation of basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies from those reported in our fiscal 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. For more information on our critical accounting policies, see Part II, Item 7 of our fiscal 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following section provides certain information with respect to our critical accounting estimates as of the close of our most recent quarterly period.

Goodwill

The Company has five significant reporting units with goodwill representing 59%, 12%, 9%, 8% and 6% of the total goodwill balance. Our most recent annual goodwill impairment test, performed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 , indicated that the fair value of these reporting units exceeded their respective carrying values by 347%, 142%, 134%, 586% and 144%, respectively. The remaining 6% of total goodwill is spread between two other reporting units. Based on the excess of estimated fair value over carrying value and the absence of any indicators of impairment at September 30, 2015 , the Company does not currently anticipate recording a goodwill impairment charge for any of its operating units.

Other Intangible Assets

Intangible assets that have finite useful lives are amortized by the straight-line method over their useful lives ranging from 1.5 to 15 years. The Company tests intangible assets with finite lives for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company did not observe any events or circumstances during the three months ended September 30, 2015 that would indicate that the carrying value of its intangible assets may not be recoverable.

Unapproved Change Orders and Claims

Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts included revenues for unapproved change orders and claims of $13.1 million at September 30, 2015 and $12.7 million at June 30, 2015 . The amounts ultimately realized may be significantly different than the recorded amounts resulting in a material adjustment to future earnings.

Insurance Reserves

We maintain insurance coverage for various aspects of our operations. However, we retain exposure to potential losses through the use of deductibles, self-insured retentions and coverage limits. We establish reserves for claims using a combination of actuarially determined estimates and management judgment on a case-by-case basis and update our evaluations as further information becomes known. Judgments and assumptions, including the assumed losses for claims incurred but not reported, are inherent in our reserve accruals; as a result, changes in assumptions or claims experience could result in changes to these estimates in the future. If actual results of claim settlements are different than the amounts estimated, we may be exposed to gains and losses that could be significant.

early adoption is permitted. We expect to adopt this standard in fiscal 2017.

On August 16, 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-15 to clarify the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") staff’s position on presenting and measuring debt issuance costs incurred in connection with line-of-credit arrangements given the lack of guidance on this topic in ASU 2015-03. The SEC has announced that it would “not object to an entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement.” For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We expect to adopt this standard in fiscal 2017. The adoption of this standard will have no impact on the Company's presentation of debt issuance costs.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2015 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2014

Consolidated

Consolidated revenue was $319.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, compared to consolidated revenue of $321.7 million in the same period in the prior fiscal year. On a segment basis, consolidated revenue increased in the Electrical Infrastructure, Storage Solutions and Oil Gas & Chemical segments by $9.9 million, $10.9 million and $15.0 million, respectively. These increases were offset by a reduction in the Industrial segment of $38.2 million.

Consolidated gross profit increased from $28.4 million in the three months ended September 30, 2014 to $34.6 million in the three months ended September 30, 2015. Gross margins were 10.8% in the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to 8.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2015. Fiscal 2015 margins were reduced 1.8% to 8.8% due to a $3.3 million project charge for the acquired EPC joint venture project.

Consolidated SG&A expenses were $19.5 million in the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $19.8 million in the same period a year earlier. SG&A expense as a percentage of revenue was 6.1% in the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to 6.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2014.

Net interest expense was $0.2 million and $0.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2015 and September 30, 2014, respectively.

Our effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2015 decreased to 34.3% compared to 43.7% the same period a year earlier. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was impacted, in part, by the acquired EPC joint venture project in which the Company has a 65% interest and for which the Company does not receive a tax benefit. The inclusion of the acquired EPC joint venture project loss for the three months ended September 30, 2014 increased our effective tax rate by 5.7% . The fiscal 2015 tax rate was positively impacted by a discrete item related to our Canadian operations.

For the three months ended September 30, 2015, net income attributable to Matrix Service Company and the related fully diluted earnings per share were $9.9 million and $0.37 compared to net income attributable to Matrix Service Company of $5.9 million and fully diluted earnings per share of $0.22 in the same period a year earlier.

Electrical Infrastructure

Revenue for the Electrical Infrastructure segment increased $9.9 million to $65.6 million in the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $55.7 million in the same period a year earlier as a result of volume increases in both power delivery and power generation. Gross margins increased to 7.2% in the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to (0.9%) in the same period a year earlier. Fiscal 2015 gross margins were negatively impacted by a $3.3 million project charge related to an acquired EPC joint venture project. Fiscal 2016 gross margins were negatively impacted by $12.7 million of revenue related to this project being recognized at zero margin. The Company reached substantial completion of this project in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 and is working through final close out with the client.

Oil Gas & Chemical

Revenue for the Oil Gas & Chemical segment increased to $68.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $53.3 million in the same period a year earlier. The increase of $15.0 million, or 28.1%, was primarily due to higher levels of both capital and maintenance work. Gross margins were 8.3% and 8.2% for three months ended September 30, 2015 and September 30, 2014, respectively, as the impact of better absorption of overhead costs was largely offset by lower direct margins.

- 19 -

Storage Solutions

Revenue for the Storage Solutions segment increased to $144.2 million in the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $133.3 million in the same period a year earlier, an increase of 8.2%. The increase is primarily attributable to higher domestic levels of balance of plant work partially offset by lower revenue in our Canadian operations. Gross margins were 14.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to 10.9% in the same period a year earlier. Fiscal 2016 margin were positively impacted by the over recovery of construction overhead costs due to higher revenue along with strong project execution.

Industrial

Revenue for the Industrial segment decreased $38.2 million to $41.2 million in the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $79.4 million in the same period a year earlier. The decline in revenue is primarily attributable to lower business volumes from the iron and steel industry customers that the Company serves. Gross margins were 9.6% in the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to 12.6% in the same period a year earlier. Fiscal 2016 margins were positively impacted by the mix of work and strong project execution. Fiscal 2015 margins were positively impacted by favorable project completions.

Backlog

We define backlog as the total dollar amount of revenue that we expect to recognize as a result of performing work that has been awarded to us through a signed contract, notice to proceed or other type of assurance that we consider firm. The following arrangements are considered firm:


•	fixed-price awards;


•	minimum customer commitments on cost plus arrangements; and


•	certain time and material arrangements in which the estimated value is firm or can be estimated with a reasonable amount of certainty in both timing and amounts.

For long-term maintenance contracts and other established customer arrangements, we include only the amounts that we expect to recognize into revenue over the next 12 months. For all other arrangements, we calculate backlog as the estimated contract amount less revenue recognized as of the reporting date.

The following table provides a summary of changes in our backlog for the three months ended September 30, 2015 :



	Electrical Infrastructure			Oil Gas & Chemical			Storage Solutions			Industrial			Total

- 20 -

Project awards in all segments are cyclical and are typically the result of a sales process that can take several months to complete. Backlog in the Storage Solutions and Electrical Infrastructure segments typically have the greatest volatility because individual project awards can be less frequent and more significant. Project awards in these segments were slightly less than anticipated but generally in line with the Company's expectations. Backlog in the Industrial segment was negatively impacted by a project cancellation of $11.5 million related to an on-going project and a slowdown in the iron and steel industry. The cancellation was not attributable to the Company's performance on the project. It is our belief that the cancellation was attributable to softness in commodity prices, including copper, for which the client is exposed.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, The Company saw no cancellations that were the result of crude oil price declines during the period.

Seasonality and Other Factors

Quarterly operating results can exhibit seasonal fluctuations, especially in our Oil Gas & Chemical segment, for a variety of reasons. Turnarounds and planned outages at customer facilities are typically scheduled in the spring and the fall when the demand for energy is lower. Within the Electrical Infrastructure segment, transmission and distribution work is generally scheduled by the public utilities when the demand for electricity is at its lowest. Therefore, revenue volume in the summer months is typically lower than in other periods throughout the year. Also, we typically see a lower level of operating activity relating to construction projects during the winter months and early in the calendar year because many of our customers’ capital budgets have not been finalized. Our business can also be affected, both positively and negatively, by seasonal factors such as energy demand or weather conditions, including hurricanes, snowstorms, and abnormally low or high temperatures. Some of these seasonal factors may cause some of our offices and projects to close or reduce activities temporarily. Accordingly, results for any interim period may not necessarily be indicative of future operating results.

Other factors impacting operating results in all segments come from work site permitting delays or customers accelerating or postponing work. The differing types, sizes, and durations of our contracts, combined with their geographic diversity and stages of completion, often results in fluctuations in the Company's operating results.

Impact of Crude Oil Prices

The effect of declining crude prices on our results for the three months ended September 30, 2015 was not significant, and there have been no significant reductions to our backlog as a result of project cancellations. In addition, we expect that any future impact to the Electrical Infrastructure and Industrial segments will be minimal as these segments have limited exposure to the price of crude.

In our Storage Solutions segment, our customers continue to take a long-term view of the crude market and continue to be cautious short-term. If crude oil prices continue at current levels or decline further into fiscal 2016, we could see some reduction in customer spending. Although we do not expect the impact to future earnings to be significant, we cannot predict the direction of crude oil prices or our customers’ ultimate reaction to the market.

In the mid and downstream portions of the Oil Gas & Chemical segment, we expect minimal mid and long term impact to our revenue volume attributable to routine maintenance and turnaround work. However, we are receiving mixed messages from our customers regarding the magnitude and timing of work and it is unclear, what, if any impact the price of crude oil has had. Additionally, some of our mid and downstream customers are integrated oil companies with exposure to the price of crude, and if the prices continue at current levels or decline further during fiscal 2016, spending levels may be reduced. Our exposure to non-integrated upstream clients in the Oil Gas & Chemical segment, who have direct exposure to the price of crude, is limited to the operations from our recent acquisition of substantially all of the assets of HDB Ltd. Limited Partnership which conducts most of its business with upstream exploration companies. Although we expect this customer base to continue spending at a reduced level, our exposure to upstream clients is not currently significant.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure

EBITDA is a supplemental, non-GAAP financial measure. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We have presented EBITDA because it is used by the financial community as a method of measuring our performance and of evaluating the market value of companies considered to be in similar businesses. We believe that the line item on our Consolidated Statements of Income entitled “Net Income” is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to EBITDA. Since EBITDA is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, it should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, net earnings as an indicator of operating performance. EBITDA, as we

- 21 -

calculate it, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. In addition, this measure is not a measure of our ability to fund our cash needs. As EBITDA excludes certain financial information compared with net income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, users of this financial information should consider the type of events and transactions that are excluded. Our non-GAAP performance measure, EBITDA, has certain material limitations as follows:

•

It does not include interest expense. Because we have borrowed money to finance our operations, pay commitment fees to maintain our credit facility, and incur fees to issue letters of credit under the credit facility, interest expense is a necessary and ongoing part of our costs and has assisted us in generating revenue. Therefore, any measure that excludes interest expense has material limitations.


•	It does not include income taxes. Because the payment of income taxes is a necessary and ongoing part of our operations, any measure that excludes income taxes has material limitations.


•	It does not include depreciation or amortization expense. Because we use capital and intangible assets to generate revenue, depreciation and amortization expense is a necessary element of our cost structure. Therefore, any measure that excludes depreciation or amortization expense has material limitations.

A reconciliation of EBITDA to net income follows:

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

Overview

We define liquidity as the ongoing ability to pay our liabilities as they become due, fund business operations and meet all monetary contractual obligations. Our primary sources of liquidity for the three months ended September 30, 2015 were cash on hand at the beginning of the fiscal year, capacity under our senior revolving credit facility and cash generated from operations before consideration of changes in working capital. Cash on hand at September 30, 2015 totaled $69.2 million and availability under the senior revolving credit facility totaled $125.2 million resulting in available liquidity of $ 194.4 million .

Factors that routinely impact our short-term liquidity and may impact our long-term liquidity include, but are not limited to:


•	Changes in costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts and billings on uncompleted contracts in excess of costs due to contract terms that determine the timing of billings to customers and the collection of those billings


•	Some cost plus and fixed price customer contracts are billed based on milestones which may require us to incur significant expenditures prior to collections from our customers.


•	Time and material contracts are normally billed in arrears. Therefore, we are routinely required to carry these costs until they can be billed and collected.


•	Some of our large construction projects may require significant retentions or security in the form of letters of credit.


•	Other changes in working capital


•	Capital expenditures

- 22 -

Other factors that may impact both short and long-term liquidity include:


•	Acquisitions of new businesses


•	Strategic investments in new operations


•	Purchases of shares under our stock buyback program


•	Contract disputes or collection issues


•	Capacity constraints under our credit facility and remaining in compliance with all covenants contained in the credit agreement.

As discussed under the caption "Senior Revolving Credit Facility" included in this Financial Condition and Liquidity section of the Form 10-Q, our Credit Agreement includes a Senior Leverage Ratio covenant, which provides that Consolidated Funded Indebtedness, as of the end of any fiscal quarter, may not exceed 2.5 times Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement, over the previous four quarters. Consequently, project charges that the Company has made in connection with the acquired EPC joint venture have resulted in a significant short term capacity constraint on the Company's senior revolving credit facility Although the constraint does reduce our liquidity, the Company believes that the remaining availability under our credit facility, as discussed under the caption "Senior Revolving Credit Facility" included in this Financial Condition and Liquidity section of the Form 10-Q, along with cash on hand and cash generated from operations will provide sufficient liquidity to achieve both our short and long-term business objectives.

Cash Flow for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2015

Cash Flows Used by Operating Activities

Cash used by operating activities for the three months ended September 30, 2015 totaled $14.5 million . The various components of cash flows from operating activities are as follows:

Net Cash Used by Operating Activities

(In thousands)



Net income	$	9,739
Non-cash expenses	7,327
Deferred income tax	1,380
Cash effect of changes in operating assets and liabilities	(32,957		)
Other	60
Net cash used by operating activities	$	(14,451	)

The cash effect of significant changes in operating assets and liabilities at September 30, 2015 in comparison to June 30, 2015 include the following:

•

The change in accounts receivable caused an increase in cash of $16.2 million . The v ariance is primarily attributable to higher revenues in the fiscal 2015 fourth quarter of $364.4 million in comparison to $319.3 million for the fiscal 2016 first quarter. Consequently, collection of amounts in the fiscal 2016 first quarter that were billed in the fiscal 2015 fourth quarter, along with the decrease in revenue (which drove lower billings in the fiscal 2016 first quarter), contributed to the increase in cash.

•

Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts ("CIE") decreased $2.5 million million while billings on uncompleted contracts in excess of costs and estimated earnings ("BIE") decreased $21.4 million . The net change in CIE and BIE decreased cash $19.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015. CIE and BIE balances can experience significant day-to-day fluctuations based on the timing of when job costs are incurred, the invoicing of those job costs to the customer and subsequent cash collection, and other working capital management factors. The overall net change change was primarily attributable to decreased business activity for the fiscal 2016 first quarter in comparison to the fiscal 2015 fourth quarter.

- 23 -


•	The change in accounts payable resulted in a decrease to cash of $26.2 million . The v ariance is primarily due to decreased business activity for the fiscal 2016 first quarter in comparison to the fiscal 2015 fourth quarter. Revenues in the fiscal 2015 fourth quarter were $364.4 million in comparison to $319.3 for the fiscal 2016 first quarter.


•	The change in accrued wages and benefits resulted in a decrease to cash of $4.0 million driven primarily by payment of short term incentives accrued at June 30, 2015 but paid in the fiscal 2016 first quarter.

Cash Flows Used for Investing Activities

Investing activities used $3.8 million of cash in the first three months of fiscal 2016 primarily due to capital expenditures of $3.9 million. Capital expenditures consisted of $0.9 million for the purchase of construction equipment, $0.5 million for transportation and fabrication equipment, $1.7 million for office equipment, $0.6 million for buildings, and $0.2 million for small tools. Proceeds from asset sales provided $0.1 million of cash.

Cash Flows Provided by Financing Activities

Financing activities provided $9.5 million of cash in the first three months of fiscal 2016 primarily due to $8.4 million in proceeds contributed from the noncontrolling interest partner in our acquired EPC joint venture project, borrowings of $1.0 million under our credit facility, cash received for the issuance of stock options of $0.4 million, $0.1 million in cash received from employees participating in the Company's employee stock purchase program, partially offset by treasury share purchases of $0.4 million. The excess tax benefit of exercised stock options and vesting of deferred shares provided less than $0.1 million of cash. Cash borrowings were used for Canadian dollar advances to fund our existing Canadian operations including amounts to settle intercompany cross currency billings and other borrowings to finance our short-term working capital requirements.

Senior Revolving Credit Facility

As noted previously in Note 5 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company has a five-year $200.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility under a credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") that expires March 13, 2019.

The Credit Agreement includes the following covenants and borrowing limitations:


•	Our Senior Leverage Ratio, as defined in the agreement, may not exceed 2.50 to 1.00, determined as of the end of each fiscal quarter.


•	We are required to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, as defined in the agreement, greater than or equal to 1.25 to 1.00, determined as of the end of each fiscal quarter.


•	Asset dispositions (other than inventory and obsolete or unneeded equipment disposed of in the ordinary course of business) are limited to $20.0 million per 12-month period.

The Credit Agreement also permits us to borrow in Canadian dollars with a sublimit of U.S. $40.0 million. Amounts borrowed in Canadian dollars will bear interest either at the CDOR Rate, plus an additional margin based on the Senior Leverage Ratio ranging from 1.25% to 2.0%, or at the Canadian Prime Rate, plus an additional margin based on the Senior Leverage Ratio ranging from 1.75% to 2.5%. The CDOR Rate is equal to the sum of the annual rate of interest, which is the rate determined as being the arithmetic average of the quotations of all institutions listed in respect of the relevant CDOR interest period for Canadian Dollar denominated bankers’ acceptances, plus 0.1%. The Canadian Prime Rate is equal to the greater of (i) the rate of interest per annum most recently announced or established by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Toronto Branch as its reference rate in effect on such day for determining interest rates for Canadian Dollar denominated commercial loans in Canada and (ii) the CDOR Rate plus 1.0%.

The Unused Credit Facility Fee is between 0.20% and 0.35% based on the Senior Leverage Ratio.

previous four quarters. For the four quarters ended September 30, 2015 , Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement, was $63.3 million . Accordingly, at September 30, 2015 , there was a restriction on our ability to access the full amount of the credit facility. Consolidated Funded Indebtedness at September 30, 2015 was $25.1 million .

Availability under the senior credit facility at September 30, 2015 and June 30, 2015 was as follows:



	September 30, 2015		June 30, 2015
	(In thousands)
Senior credit facility	$	200,000	$	200,000
Capacity constraint due to the Senior Leverage Ratio	41,723		54,968
Capacity under the credit facility	158,277		145,032
Borrowings outstanding	9,766		8,804
Letters of credit	23,342		40,587
Availability under the senior credit facility	$	125,169	$	95,641

Outstanding borrowings at September 30, 2015 consisted of Canadian dollar advances to fund our existing Canadian operations including amounts to settle intercompany cross currency billings and other borrowings to finance our short-term working capital requirements.

The Company is in compliance with all affirmative, negative, and financial covenants under the Credit Agreement.

Dividend Policy

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock, and the terms of our Credit Agreement limit the amount of cash dividends we can pay. Under our Credit Agreement, we may declare and pay dividends on our capital stock during any fiscal year up to an amount which, when added to all other dividends paid during such fiscal year, does not exceed 50% of our cumulative net income for such fiscal year to such date. While we currently do not intend to pay cash dividends, any future dividend payments will depend on our financial condition, capital requirements and earnings as well as other relevant factors.

Stock Repurchase Program and Treasury Shares

Treasury Shares

On November 4, 2014 the Board of Directors approved a stock buyback program that replaced the program that had previously been in place. The program, which expires on December 31, 2016, allows the Company to purchase up to $25.0 million of common stock annually if sufficient liquidity exists and management believes the purchase would be beneficial to the Company's stockholders. The annual $25.0 million limitation is applied on a calendar year basis. The cumulative number of shares repurchased cannot exceed 2,653,399, which represents 10% of the shares outstanding on the date the new repurchase program was approved. As of September 30, 2015, the Company has purchased 283,772 shares under the program. No shares were purchased during the first quarter of fiscal 2016 under the stock buyback program.

In addition to the stock buyback program, the Company may withhold shares of common stock to satisfy the tax withholding obligations upon vesting of an employee’s deferred shares. Matrix withheld 20,105 shares in the first three months of fiscal 2016 to satisfy these obligations. These shares were returned to the Company’s pool of treasury shares.

The Company has 1,356,560 treasury shares as of September 30, 2015 and intends to utilize these treasury shares solely in connection with equity awards under the Company’s stock incentive plans.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this Form 10-Q which address activities, events or developments which we expect, believe or anticipate will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. The words “believes,” “intends,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “projects,” “estimates,” “predicts” and similar expressions are also intended to identify forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements include, among others, such things as:


•	amounts and nature of future revenues and margins from each of our segments;

- 25 -


•	trends in the industries we serve;


•	the impact to our business of crude oil and other commodity prices;


•	our ability to generate sufficient cash from operations or to raise cash in order to meet our short and long-term capital requirements;


•	the likely impact of new or existing regulations or market forces on the demand for our services;


•	expansion and other trends of the industries we serve;


•	our expectations with respect to the likelihood of a future impairment; and


•	our ability to comply with the covenants in our credit agreement.

These statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses we made in light of our experience and our historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments as well as other factors we believe are appropriate. However, whether actual results and developments will conform to our expectations and predictions is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, including:


•	the risk factors discussed in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 and listed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission;


•	economic, market or business conditions in general and in the oil, gas, power and mining and minerals industries in particular;


•	the inherently uncertain outcome of current and future litigation;


•	the adequacy of our reserves for contingencies;


•	changes in laws or regulations; and


•	other factors, many of which are beyond our control.

Consequently, all of the forward-looking statements made in this Form 10-Q are qualified by these cautionary statements and there can be no assurance that the actual results or developments anticipated by us will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequences or effects on our business operations. We assume no obligation to update publicly, except as required by law, any such forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

There have been no material changes in market risk faced by us from those reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 , filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. For more information on market risk, see Part II, Item 7A in our fiscal 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Securities Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” in Rule 13a-15(e).

The disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors or fraud. The design of our internal control system takes into account the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be weighed against the costs. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the acts of key individuals, collusion or management override.

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2015 . Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level at September 30, 2015 .

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2015 .
