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 2015-17 (Topic 740), Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes
On November 20, 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2015-17, which will require entities to present deferred tax assets ("DTAs") and deferred tax liabilities ("DTLs") as noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. The ASU simplifies the current guidance, which requires entities to separately present DTAs and DTLs as current and noncurrent in a classified balance sheet based on the classification of the related asset or liability. For public business entities, the ASU will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those years with early adoption permitted. The Company has elected to retrospectively early adopt ASU 2015-17, effective for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. The quantitative effects of the change on the prior balance sheet presented, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, resulted in a net reclassification of

Accounting Standards Update 2014-09 (Topic 606), Revenue from Contracts with Customers
On May 28, 2014, the FASB issued 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 on July 1, 2016.
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 on July 1, 2016.

Other
In the three and six months ended December 31, 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
$22.9 million
and
$26.2 million
and an after-tax reduction of
$7.9 million
and
$9.0 million
to net income attributable to Matrix Service Company, respectively. The Company recorded an additional charge on this project in the second quarter of fiscal 2016. The charge resulted in a reduction of operating income in the Electrical Infrastructure segment of
$5.4 million
and
$5.5 million
and a reduction of
$2.0 million
in net income attributable to Matrix Service Company in the three and six months ended December 31, 2015, respectively.
The fiscal 2016 project charge was attributable to higher than expected project closeout costs. The Company reached substantial completion on the project in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015.

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
December 31, 2015
, Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement, was
$65.4 million
. Accordingly, at
December 31, 2015
, there was a restriction on our ability to access the full amount of the credit facility. Consolidated Funded Indebtedness at
December 31, 2015
was
$22.3 million
.

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.
Our effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2015 was
32.1%
compared to
(31.3)%
in the same period a year earlier. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2015 was
33.8%
compared to
103.8%
in the same period a year earlier. Our effective tax rates for the three and six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, in comparison to our statutory rate, were impacted in part by the acquired EPC joint venture project charges in which the Company has a 65% interest and does not receive a tax benefit. The Company recorded a discrete benefit of
$0.9 million
in the three months ended December 31, 2015, primarily relating to the retroactive application of the R&D tax credit. In addition, the Company recorded discrete benefits of $
1.4 million
in the six months ended December 31, 2015 primarily relating to the retroactive application of the R&D tax credit and a foreign currency item.
As stated in Note 1, the Company has elected to retrospectively early adopt ASU 2015-17, effective for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. The quantitative effects of the change on the prior balance sheet presented, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, resulted in a reclassification of
$6.6 million
and
$6.6 million
from the "Deferred income taxes" current asset and liability financial statement line items, respectively, to the "Deferred income taxes" asset and liability financial statement line items included in the noncurrent asset and liability sections of the balance sheet.
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
-
13
-
Table of Contents
Matrix Service Company
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
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
$11.3 million
at
December 31, 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.

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. The Company has considered the current economic environment and concluded that no impairment indicators existed at December 31, 2015. The Company will continue to closely monitor economic conditions.
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 evaluates 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 six months ended
December 31, 2015
that would indicate that the carrying value of its intangible assets may not be recoverable. The Company's evaluation included values assigned to customer relationships in the iron and steel industry which is currently experiencing short to medium term weakness. If the Company's view of this market adversely changes or if other factors develop which change our view of the value of these relationships, the Company will reevaluate this conclusion.
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
$11.3 million
at
December 31, 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.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Accounting Standards Update 2015-17 (Topic 740), Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes
On November 20, 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2015-17, which will require entities to present deferred tax assets ("DTAs") and deferred tax liabilities ("DTLs") as noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. The ASU simplifies the current guidance, which requires entities to separately present DTAs and DTLs as current and noncurrent in a classified balance sheet based on the classification of the related asset or liability. For public business entities, the ASU will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. The Company has elected to retrospectively early adopt ASU 2015-17, effective for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. The quantitative effects of the change on the prior balance sheet presented,

Table of Contents
for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, resulted in a net reclassification of $6.6 million and $6.6 million from the "Deferred income taxes" current asset and liability financial statement line items, respectively, to the "Deferred income taxes" asset and liability financial statement line items included in the noncurrent asset and liability sections of the balance sheet.
Accounting Standards Update 2014-09 (Topic 606), Revenue from Contracts with Customers
On May 28, 2014, the FASB issued 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 on July 1, 2016.
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 on July 1, 2016.

Compared to the
Three Months Ended
December 31, 2014
Consolidated
Consolidated revenue was $323.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015, compared to consolidated revenue of $342.9 million in the same period in the prior fiscal year. On a segment basis, consolidated revenue increased in the Electrical Infrastructure segment by $32.9 million. This increase was offset by decreased revenue in the Industrial, Oil Gas & Chemical and Storage Solutions segments of $30.7 million, $14.0 million and $7.6 million, respectively.
Consolidated gross profit increased from $16.0 million in the three months ended December 31, 2014 to $30.0 million in the three months ended December 31, 2015. The Company recorded project charges of $5.4 million and $22.9 million on an acquired EPC joint venture project in fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2015. The charges are discussed in Note 3- Uncompleted Contracts. These charges reduced fiscal 2016 gross margins by 1.6% to 9.3% and reduced fiscal 2015 gross margins by 6.7% to 4.7% in the same period in the prior fiscal year.
Consolidated SG&A expenses were $25.1 million in the three months ended December 31, 2015 compared to $19.6 million in the same period a year earlier. The increase in fiscal 2016 is primarily related to a non-routine bad debt charge of $5.2 million from an unexpected client bankruptcy.
Net interest expense was $0.2 million in the three months ended December 31, 2015. Interest expense was $0.3 million in the three months ended December 31, 2014. Fiscal 2015 results include $0.3 million of interest income attributable to an award received due to the settlement of a customer dispute.
Our effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2015 was 32.1% compared to (31.3%) in the same period a year earlier. Our effective tax rates for fiscal 2016 and 2015 were impacted, in part, by the acquired EPC joint venture project charges in which the Company has a 65% interest and does not receive a tax benefit. In addition, the Company recorded a discrete benefit of $0.9 million in the three months ended December 31, 2015, primarily relating to the retroactive application of the R&D tax credit. The fiscal 2015 effective tax rate included an additional tax benefit of $0.8 million from the reinstatement of the R&D tax credit through calendar year 2014.
For the three months ended December 31, 2015, net income attributable to Matrix Service Company and the related fully diluted earnings per share were $5.4 million and $0.20 compared to net income attributable to Matrix Service Company of $3.3 million and fully diluted earnings per share of $0.12 in the same period a year earlier.
Electrical Infrastructure
Revenue for the Electrical Infrastructure segment increased $32.9 million to $91.4 million in the three months ended December 31, 2015 compared to $58.5 million in the same period a year earlier as a result of volume increases in both power delivery and power generation. The Company recorded project charges of $5.4 million and $22.9 million on the acquired EPC joint venture project in fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2015. The charges are discussed in Note 3- Uncompleted Contracts. These charges reduced fiscal 2016 gross margins for this segment by 5.8% to 4.4% and reduced fiscal 2015 gross margins by 39.3% to (27.4%).

Table of Contents
Oil Gas & Chemical
Revenue for the Oil Gas & Chemical segment was $61.5 million in the three months ended December 31, 2015 compared to $75.5 million in the same period a year earlier. The decrease of $14.0 million, or 18.5%, was due to lower levels of capital and maintenance work. Gross margins were 9.7% for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Gross margins for fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2015 were negatively impacted by the under recovery of construction overhead costs.
Storage Solutions
Revenue for the Storage Solutions segment was $122.2 million in the three months ended December 31, 2015 compared to $129.8 million in the same period a year earlier, a decrease of 5.9%. The decrease is primarily attributable to lower revenue volume in our Canadian operations partially offset by higher domestic levels of balance of plant work. Gross margins were 11.8% for the three months ended December 31, 2015 compared to 11.0% in the same period a year earlier.
Industrial
Revenue for the Industrial segment decreased $30.7 million to $48.4 million in the three months ended December 31, 2015 compared to $79.1 million in the same period a year earlier. The decline in revenue is primarily attributable to lower business volumes in the iron and steel and mining markets, and lower revenue recognized on a large fertilizer project that is nearing completion. Gross margins were 11.5% in the three months ended December 31, 2015 compared to 13.2% 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 a favorable settlement with a customer.
Six Months Ended December 31, 2015 Compared to the Six Months Ended December 31, 2014
Consolidated revenue was $642.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2015, a decrease of $21.7 million, or 3.3%, from consolidated revenue of $664.6 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 $42.8 million, $3.3 million and $1.1 million respectively, offset by a decrease in the Industrial segment of $68.9 million.
Consolidated gross profit was $64.6 million in the six months ended December 31, 2015 compared to $44.3 million in the six months ended December 31, 2014. The Company recorded project charges of $5.5 million and $26.2 million on the acquired EPC joint venture project in fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2015. The charges are discussed in Note 3- Uncompleted Contracts. These charges reduced fiscal 2016 gross margins by 1.1% to 10.0% and reduced fiscal 2015 gross margins by 4.4% to 6.7%.
Consolidated SG&A expenses were $44.6 million in the six months ended December 31, 2015 compared to $39.5 million in the same period a year earlier. The increase in fiscal 2016 is primarily related to a non-routine bad debt charge of $5.2 million from an unexpected client bankruptcy.
Net interest expense was $0.4 million in the six months ended December 31, 2015, and $0.3 million in the six months ended December 31, 2014. Fiscal 2015 results include $0.3 million of interest income attributable to an award received due to the settlement of a customer dispute.
Our effective tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2015 was 33.8% compared to 103.8% in the same period a year earlier. Our effective tax rate for fiscal 2016 and 2015 was impacted, in part, by the acquired EPC joint venture project charges in which the Company has a 65% interest and does not receive a tax benefit. In addition, the Company recorded discrete benefits of $1.4 million in the six months ended December 31, 2015 primarily relating to the retroactive application of the R&D tax credit and a foreign currency item. The fiscal 2015 effective tax rate included an additional tax benefit of $0.8 million from the reinstatement of the R&D tax credit through calendar year 2014.
For the six months ended December 31, 2015, net income attributable to Matrix Service Company and the related fully diluted earnings per share were $15.4 million and $0.56 compared to $9.2 million and $0.34 in the same period a year earlier.
Electrical Infrastructure
Revenue for the Electrical Infrastructure segment increased $42.8 million to $157.0 million in the six months ended December 31, 2015 compared to $114.2 million in the same period a year earlier. The increased revenue volume was primarily due to volume increases in both power delivery and power generation. The Company recorded project charges of $5.5 million and

$26.2 million on the acquired EPC joint venture project in fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2015. The charges are discussed in Note 3- Uncompleted Contracts. These charges reduced fiscal 2016 gross margins by 4.0% to 5.6% and reduced fiscal 2015 gross margins for this segment by 25.1% to (14.5%).
Oil Gas & Chemical
Revenue for the Oil Gas & Chemical segment was $129.9 million in the six months ended December 31, 2015 compared to $128.8 million in the same period a year earlier. Revenue volumes were flat across most of the segment. Gross margins were 9.0% in the six months ended December 31, 2015 compared to 9.1% a year earlier. Gross margins for fiscal 2016 were negatively impacted by lower direct margins partially offset by the improvement in absorption of overhead costs.
Storage Solutions
Revenue for the Storage Solutions segment increased to $266.4 million in the six months ended December 31, 2015 compared to $263.1 million in the same period a year earlier. The increase is primarily attributable to higher domestic levels of balance of plant work largely offset by lower revenue in our Canadian operations. Gross margins were 13.0% for the six months ended December 31, 2015 compared to 10.9% in the same period a year earlier. Fiscal 2016 margins were positively impacted by the improved recovery of construction overhead costs along with strong project execution.
Industrial
Revenue for the Industrial segment decreased $68.9 million to $89.6 million in the six months ended December 31, 2015 compared to $158.5 million in the same period a year earlier. The decline in revenue is primarily attributable to lower business volumes in the iron and steel and mining markets, and lower revenue recognized on a large fertilizer project that is nearing completion. Gross margins were 10.7% in the six months ended December 31, 2015 compared to 12.9% in the same period a year earlier. Gross margins for both periods were positively impacted by strong project execution. In addition, fiscal 2015 gross margins included a favorable settlement with a customer.
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.

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.
Backlog in the Industrial segment was negatively impacted by a mining-related project cancellation of $11.6 million in the first quarter as well as 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, to which the client is exposed.
Backlog in the Storage Solutions segment was negatively impacted by $22.0 million related to the indefinite delay of remaining work on a project for one of our Canadian customers for the construction of aboveground storage tanks at a storage terminal. At the onset of the project the customer anticipated receiving the appropriate permitting approvals for the pipeline that would have run from the storage terminal to the Gulf Coast of the United States. In November of 2015, the President of the United States rejected approval of the pipeline. In January 2016, the customer sued the United States government asserting the rejection of the pipeline violated the North American Free Trade Agreement. The customer was also considering deploying the storage tanks for another project that was indefinitely deferred due to the low price of crude oil. Given the uncertain outlook for crude prices and the duration of any litigation and regulatory approval process, the Company removed the remaining portion of the project from its backlog.
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 and Other Commodity Price Declines
The effect of declining crude prices on our income from operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2015 was not significant. In addition, we expect that any future impact to the Electrical Infrastructure segment will be minimal as this segment has limited exposure to the price of crude.
-

-
Table of Contents
In the mid and downstream portions of the Oil Gas & Chemical segment, we expect minimal 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 will have. Additionally, some of our mid and downstream customers are integrated oil companies with exposure to the price of crude, 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 not significant.
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, particularly on larger projects. Based on the the current level and short-term outlook for crude oil prices, we do expect 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 Industrial segment, our iron and steel customers face significant uncertainty related to the slowdown in the Chinese economy and the related impact on steel imports and steel prices, the strong United States dollar, the domestic demand for steel and the impact of anti-dumping duties on steel imports. This uncertainty has reduced the capital, expansion and elective maintenance spending of our customers. We do not expect higher levels of spending until the overall uncertainty in this market is reduced and economic conditions within the industry improve. In the mining and minerals markets, we continue to see lower spending due to the softness of other commodity prices, particularly copper, to which our clients are exposed.
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 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
six months ended
December 31, 2015
were cash on hand, capacity under our senior revolving credit facility and cash generated from operations before consideration of changes in working capital. Cash on hand at
December 31, 2015
totaled
$82.4 million
and availability under the senior revolving credit facility totaled
$133.2 million
resulting in available liquidity of $
215.6 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
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 which can be significant
•
Collection issues, including those caused by overall economic conditions which can lead to credit deterioration of our customers
•
Capacity constraints under our credit facility and remaining in compliance with all covenants contained in the credit agreement
•
A default by one of the major financial institutions for which our deposits exceed insured deposit limits
•
Cash on hand outside of the United States that cannot be repatriated without incremental taxation.
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 recorded in connection with the acquired EPC joint venture have resulted in a short term capacity constraint on the Company's senior revolving credit facility Although the constraint reduces 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.

The cash effect of significant changes in operating assets and liabilities at December 31, 2015 in comparison to June 30, 2015 include the following:
•
The change in accounts receivable caused a decrease in cash of
$13.8 million
.
The
v
ariance is primarily attributable to higher billings in the fiscal 2016 second quarter in connection for certain large construction projects in fiscal 2016.
•
Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts ("CIE") decreased
$4.3 million
million while billings on uncompleted contracts in excess of costs and estimated earnings ("BIE") increased
$17.4 million
. The net change in CIE and BIE increased cash
$21.8 million
for the six months ended December 31, 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 other working capital management factors. The overall net change change was primarily attributable to
higher advanced billings for certain large construction projects in fiscal 2016.
•
The change in accounts payable resulted in a decrease to cash of
$16.7 million
. The
v
ariance is primarily due to
decreased business activity for the fiscal 2016 second quarter in comparison to the fiscal 2015 fourth quarter along with timing of material procurement. Revenues in the fiscal 2015 fourth quarter were
$364.4 million in comparison to $323.5 for the fiscal 2016 second quarter.
•
The change in accrued wages and benefits resulted in a decrease to cash of
$7.9 million
driven primarily by payment of short term incentives accrued at June 30, 2015 but paid in the fiscal 2016 first quarter along with decreased business activity in the fiscal 2016 second quarter relative to the fiscal 2015 fourth quarter.
Cash Flows Used for Investing Activities
Investing activities used
$7.4 million
of cash in the first six months of fiscal 2016 primarily due to capital expenditures of $7.5 million. Capital expenditures consisted of $2.2 million for the purchase of construction equipment, $1.5 million for transportation and fabrication equipment, $2.6 million for office equipment, and $1.2 million for buildings. Proceeds from asset sales provided $0.1 million of cash.
Cash Flows Provided by Financing Activities
Financing activities provided
$6.2 million
of cash in the first six 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 $2.8 million under our credit facility, cash received for the issuance of stock options of $0.5 million, $0.2 million in cash received from employees participating in the Company's employee stock purchase program, partially offset by treasury share purchases of $4.5 million and repayments of borrowings of $4.3 million. The excess tax benefit of exercised stock options and vesting of deferred shares provided $3.2 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.
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
December 31, 2015
, Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement, was
$65.4 million
. Accordingly, at
December 31, 2015
, there was a restriction on our ability to access the full amount of the credit facility. Consolidated Funded Indebtedness at
December 31, 2015
was
$22.3 million
.

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 December 31, 2015, the Company has purchased 283,772 shares under the program. No shares were purchased during fiscal 2016 under this 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 200,019 shares in the first six months of fiscal
2016
to satisfy these obligations. These shares were returned to the Company’s pool of treasury shares.
The Company has 973,299 treasury shares as of
December 31, 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:
•
the impact to our business of crude oil and other commodity prices;
•
amounts and nature of future revenues and margins from each of our segments;
•
trends in the industries we serve;
•
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;
-
28
-
Table of Contents
•
economic, market or business conditions in general and in the oil, gas, power and mining and minerals industries in particular;
•
reduced creditworthiness of our customer base and the higher risk of non-payment of receivables due to low prevailing crude oil and other commodity prices;
•
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
December 31, 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
December 31, 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
December 31, 2015
