NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
UNAUDITED

1. Principles of Consolidation

These financial statements do not include footnotes and certain financial information normally presented annually under GAAP, and therefore, should be read in conjunction with our 2020 10-K. Accounting measurements at interim dates inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than at year-end. Although such estimates are based on management’s most recent assessment of the underlying facts and circumstances utilizing the most current information available, our reported results of operations may not necessarily be indicative of results that we expect for the full year.

The financial statements included herein are unaudited. In management's opinion, they contain all adjustments of a normal recurring nature which are necessary to present fairly our financial position and our operating results as of and for the interim periods presented. All significant intercompany transactions of consolidated subsidiaries are eliminated. Certain amounts in 2020 have been reclassified to conform to the 2021 presentation, which includes the segregation of Disc Ops and assets and liabilities held for sale. Segment operating information for 2020 has been recast to reflect changes in the composition of our reportable segments during 2021. Certain amounts in tables may not total or agree to the financial statements due to immaterial rounding differences. Management has evaluated all material events occurring subsequent to June 30, 2021 through the filing date of this Q2 2021 10-Q.
Quarters are typically 13 weeks in length but, due to our annual period ending on December 31, the number of weeks in a reporting period may vary slightly during the year and for comparable prior year periods. We report our quarterly results of operations based on periods ending on the Sunday nearest March 31, June 30 and September 30, allowing for a 13-week quarter. For clarity of presentation, all periods are presented as if the periods ended on March 31, June 30 and September 30.
In the first quarter of 2021, we committed to a plan to sell our Stork business. This plan and our plan to sell the remaining AMECO equipment business remains unchanged. Therefore, both Stork and AMECO are reported as Disc Ops. We expect to complete the sale of Stork and the remaining AMECO operations near the end of this year or early in 2022. The assets and liabilities of the Stork and AMECO businesses are classified as held for sale for all periods presented.
2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting pronouncements that were implemented by us during the 2021 Period

In the first quarter of 2021, we adopted ASU 2020-06, “Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity,” which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments and the application of the derivatives scope exception for contracts in our own equity. ASU 2020-06 eliminates two of the three models in the current guidance that require separating embedded conversion features from convertible instruments and also eliminates some of the requirements for equity classification. ASU 2020-06 also addresses how convertible instruments are accounted for in the diluted EPS calculation. The adoption did not have any impact on our financial statements.

Potentially dilutive securities include convertible preferred stock, stock options, RSUs, restricted stock and performance-based award units. Diluted EPS reflects the assumed exercise or conversion of all dilutive securities using the if-converted and treasury stock methods. In computing diluted EPS, only securities that are actually dilutive are included.

Energy Solutions. Segment profit for the 2021 Quarter and 2021 Period benefitted from the negotiation of change orders, scope increases and cost improvements across numerous projects. Both periods also benefitted from the collection of previously reserved accounts receivable and the reversal of the related provision. The increases in 2021 were partially offset by losses on embedded foreign currency derivatives. Segment profit for the 2020 Period was adversely affected by the recognition of reserves for expected credit losses on aged receivables and COVID-19 related cost growth.
Urban Solutions. Segment profit for the 2021 Quarter and 2021 Period included a project charge of $138 million (or $0.72 per share) for procurement and subcontractor cost growth, delays and disruptions in the schedule of a legacy infrastructure project. We believe that these cost growth factors may be at least partially recoverable under the contract. However, we expect that it will require several quarters to analyze recoverability and negotiate with our client before recognizing incremental revenue for these factors. The decline in segment profit in the 2021 Period was partially offset by the favorable resolution of a long-standing customer dispute on a rail project. We also sold our interest in an infrastructure joint venture and recognized a gain of $20 million during the 2021 Quarter and 2021 Period. Intercompany revenue for our professional staffing business, excluded from the amounts shown above, was $69 million and $139 million for the 2021 Quarter and 2021 Period, respectively, and $62 million and $139 million for the 2020 Quarter and 2020 Period, respectively.
Mission Solutions. Segment profit for the 2021 Quarter and 2021 Period benefitted from increased execution activity on our DOE projects, higher than anticipated performance-based fees and the release of COVID-19 cost reserves, partially offset by a decline in execution activity on army logistics and life support programs in Afghanistan and Africa.
Other. During the 2021 Period, JGC Holdings Corporation, GS Energy and IHI Corporation invested a combined $100 million in NuScale. Fluor and its advisors continue to engage with potential investors and capital providers to fund NuScale's path to commercialization.

Our business has been adversely affected by the economic impacts of the outbreak of COVID-19 and the steep decline in oil prices that occurred in the early part of 2020. These events have created significant uncertainty and economic volatility and disruption, which have impacted and may continue to impact our business. We have experienced, and may continue to experience, reductions in demand for certain of our services and the delay or abandonment of ongoing or anticipated projects due to our clients’, suppliers’ and other third parties’ diminished financial condition or financial distress, as well as governmental budget constraints. These impacts may continue or worsen under prolonged stay-at-home, social distancing, travel restrictions and other similar orders or restrictions. Significant uncertainty still exists concerning the magnitude of the

impact and duration of these events, as well as our potential to make recovery from our clients pursuant to the contract and under rule of law. Because of these events, we performed interim impairment testing of our goodwill, intangible assets and investments during the 2020 Period, pursuant to which we recognized the impairment expense on an equity method investment and IT assets. We also recognized impairment expense on goodwill and intangible assets associated with the Stork business, now included in Disc Ops.
The valuation of our equity method investments utilized unobservable Level 3 inputs based on the investee's forecast of anticipated volumes and overhead absorption in a cyclical business.
Restructuring and Other Exit Costs
During 2019, we initiated a restructuring plan designed to optimize costs and improve operational efficiency. These efforts primarily relate to the rationalization of resources, investments, real estate and overhead across various geographies. Our recognition of costs for the planned restructuring activities was substantially completed by the end of 2020. Restructuring costs of $4 million, primarily related to severance, were recognized during both the 2020 Quarter and 2020 Period. We did not recognize any material restructuring costs during 2021.

6. Income Taxes

The effective tax rate on earnings (loss) from Cont Ops was (9.3)% for the 2021 Quarter and (4.5)% for the 2021 Period compared to 137.2% and 356.1% for the corresponding periods of 2020. The effective tax rate in 2021 was unfavorably impacted by the increase in the valuation allowances against foreign tax credit carryforwards and certain foreign losses. This 2021 unfavorable impact was partially offset by favorable foreign tax differential. The effective tax rate in the 2020 Period was favorably impacted by the release of valuation allowances and rate benefits resulting from the carryback of our 2019 federal net operating loss as allowed by the CARES Act. This benefit was partially offset by an increase in the valuation allowance against foreign tax credit carryforwards and certain foreign losses, as well as a small addition to uncertain tax benefits. Earnings attributable to non-controlling interests from continuing operations, for which income taxes are not typically our responsibility, favorably impacted the effective tax rate for the 2021 Period.

ownership or participation interest with decision making and distribution of expected gains and losses typically being proportionate to the ownership or participation interest. Many of the partnership and joint venture agreements provide for capital calls to fund operations, as necessary. Accounts receivable related to work performed for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures included in “Accounts receivable, net” was $218 million and $207 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

One of our more significant joint ventures is COOEC Fluor, in which we have a 49% ownership interest. COOEC Fluor owns, operates and manages the Zhuhai Fabrication Yard in China’s Guangdong province. We made a capital contribution of $26 million to the joint venture during the first quarter of 2021, which satisfied our contractual funding requirements.
During the 2021 Quarter, we sold our 10% ownership interest in an infrastructure joint venture and recognized a gain of $20 million, which was included in Urban Solutions' segment profit. During the 2020 Quarter, we sold our 50% ownership interest in Sacyr Fluor and recognized a loss of $11 million, which was included in Energy Solutions' segment profit.
Variable Interest Entities

The aggregate carrying value of unconsolidated VIEs (classified under both "Investments” and “Other accrued liabilities”) was a net asset of $65 million and $174 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Some of our VIEs have debt; however, such debt is typically non-recourse in nature. Our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our investments in unconsolidated VIEs is typically limited to the aggregate of the carrying value of the investment and future funding necessary to satisfy the contractual obligations of the VIE. Future funding commitments as of June 30, 2021 for the unconsolidated VIEs were $57 million.
In some cases, we are required to consolidate certain VIEs. As of June 30, 2021, the carrying values of the assets and liabilities associated with the operations of the consolidated VIEs were $1.4 billion and $718 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, the carrying values of the assets and liabilities associated with the operations of the consolidated VIEs were $1.2 billion and $688 million, respectively. The assets of a VIE are restricted for use only for the particular VIE and are not available for our general operations.
We have agreements with certain VIEs to provide financial or performance assurances to clients, as discussed elsewhere.
9. Guarantees
In the ordinary course of business, we enter into various agreements providing performance assurances and guarantees to our clients on behalf of certain unconsolidated and consolidated partnerships, joint ventures and other jointly executed contracts. These agreements are entered into primarily to support project execution commitments. Performance guarantees have various expiration dates ranging from mechanical completion to a period extending beyond contract completion. The maximum potential amount of future payments that we could be required to make under outstanding performance guarantees, which represents the remaining cost of work to be performed, was estimated to be $12 billion as of June 30, 2021. For cost reimbursable contracts, amounts that may become payable pursuant to guarantee provisions are normally recoverable from the client for work performed. For lump-sum contracts, the performance guarantee amount is the cost to complete the contracted work, less amounts remaining to be billed to the client under the contract. Remaining billable amounts could be greater or less than the cost to complete. In those cases where costs exceed the remaining amounts payable under the contract, we may have recourse to third parties, such as owners, partners, subcontractors or vendors for claims. The performance guarantee obligation was not material as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
10. Contingencies and Commitments

We and certain of our subsidiaries are subject to litigation, claims and other commitments and contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the asserted value of these matters may be significant, we currently do not expect that the ultimate resolution of any open matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.

The following disclosures for commitments and contingencies have been updated since the matter was presented in the 2020 10-K.

Since May 2018, purported shareholders have filed various complaints against Fluor and certain of its current and former executives in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas. The plaintiffs purport to represent a class of shareholders who purchased or otherwise acquired Fluor common stock from August 14, 2013 through February 14, 2020, and seek to recover damages arising from alleged violations of federal securities laws. These claims are based on statements concerning Fluor’s internal and disclosure controls, risk management, revenue recognition, and Fluor’s gas-fired power business, which plaintiffs assert were materially misleading. As of May 26, 2020, these complaints have been consolidated into one matter. We filed a motion to dismiss the matter on July 1, 2020. The motion was granted in part on May 5, 2021, and as a result the Court dismissed with prejudice all allegations except those related to a single statement made in 2015 about one gas-fired power project. While no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of this matter, we do not believe it is probable that a loss will be incurred. Accordingly, we have not recorded any liability as a result of this action.

Since September 2018, ten separate purported shareholders' derivative actions were filed against current and former members of the Board of Directors, as well as certain of Fluor’s current and former executives. Fluor is named as a nominal defendant in the actions. These derivative actions purport to assert claims on behalf of Fluor and make substantially the same factual allegations as the securities class action matter discussed above and seek various forms of monetary and injunctive relief. These actions are pending in Texas state court (District Court for Dallas County), the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, and the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware. Certain of these actions were consolidated and stayed, at least while our motion to dismiss was pending in the securities class action matter. We anticipate seeking a further stay until final resolution of the securities class action. While no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of this matter, we do not believe it is probable that a loss will be incurred. Accordingly, we have not recorded any liability as a result of these actions.
There have been no changes to the disclosures for the following commitments and contingencies since the matter was presented in the 2020 10-K.

Fluor Australia Ltd., our wholly-owned subsidiary (“Fluor Australia”), completed a cost reimbursable engineering, procurement and construction management services project for Santos Ltd. (“Santos”) involving a large network of natural gas gathering and processing facilities in Queensland, Australia. On December 13, 2016, Santos filed an action in Queensland Supreme Court against Fluor Australia, asserting various causes of action and seeking damages and/or a refund of contract proceeds paid of approximately AUD $1.47 billion. Santos has joined Fluor to the matter on the basis of a parent company guarantee issued for the project. We believe that the claims asserted by Santos are without merit and we are vigorously defending these claims. While no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of this matter, we do not believe it is probable that a loss will be incurred. Accordingly, we have not recorded any liability as a result of this action.

Fluor Limited, our wholly-owned subsidiary (“Fluor Limited”), and Fluor Arabia Limited, a partially-owned subsidiary
(“Fluor Arabia”), completed cost reimbursable engineering, procurement and construction management services for Sadara Chemical Company (“Sadara”) involving a large petrochemical facility in Jubail, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. On August 23, 2019, Fluor Limited and Fluor Arabia Limited commenced arbitration proceedings against Sadara after it refused to pay invoices totaling approximately $100 million due under the contracts. As part of the arbitration proceedings, Sadara has asserted various counterclaims for damages and/or a refund of contract proceeds paid totaling approximately $574 million against Fluor Limited and Fluor Arabia Limited. We believe that the counterclaims asserted by Sadara are without merit and are vigorously defending these claims. While no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of the counterclaims, we do not believe it is probable that a loss will be incurred in excess of amounts reserved for this matter. Accordingly, we have not recorded any further liability as a result of the counterclaims.
Various wholly-owned subsidiaries of Fluor, in conjunction with a partner, TECHINT, (“Fluor/TECHINT”) performed engineering, procurement and construction management services on a cost reimbursable basis for Barrick Gold Corporation involving a gold mine and ore processing facility on a site straddling the border between Argentina and Chile. In 2013 Barrick terminated the Fluor/TECHINT agreements for convenience and not due to the performance of Fluor/TECHINT. On August 12, 2016, Barrick filed a notice of arbitration against Fluor/TECHINT, demanding damages and/or a refund of contract proceeds paid of not less than $250 million under various claims relating to Fluor/TECHINT’s alleged performance. Proceedings were

suspended while the parties explored a possible settlement. In August 2019, Barrick drew down $36 million of letters of credit from Fluor/TECHINT ($24 million from Fluor and $12 million from TECHINT). Thereafter, Barrick proceeded to reactivate the arbitration. In December 2020, Barrick and Fluor/TECHINT exchanged detailed statements of claim and counterclaim pursuant to which Barrick's claim against Fluor/TECHINT now totals approximately $330 million. We believe that the claims asserted by Barrick are without merit and are vigorously defending these claims. While no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of this matter, we do not believe it is probable that a loss will be incurred. Accordingly, we have not recorded any liability as a result of these claims.
Other Matters

We periodically evaluate our positions and the amounts recognized with respect to all our claims and back charges. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had recorded $215 million and $216 million, respectively, of claim revenue for costs incurred to date. Additional costs, which will increase the claim revenue balance over time, are expected to be incurred in future periods. We had no material disputed back charges to suppliers or subcontractors as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

From time to time, we enter into contracts with the U.S. government and its agencies. Government contracts are subject to audits and reviews by government representatives with respect to our compliance with various restrictions and regulations applicable to government contractors, including but not limited to the allowability of costs incurred under reimbursable contracts. In connection with performing government contracts, we maintain reserves for estimated exposures associated with these matters.

Our operations are subject to and affected by federal, state and local laws and regulations regarding the protection of the environment. We maintain reserves for potential future environmental cost where such obligations are either known or considered probable, and can be reasonably estimated. We believe that our reserves with respect to future environmental cost are adequate and such future cost will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In February 2020, we announced that the SEC is conducting an investigation and has requested documents and information related to projects for which we recorded charges in the second quarter of 2019. In April 2020, Fluor received a subpoena from the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) seeking documents and information related to the second quarter 2019 charges; certain of the projects associated with those charges; and certain project accounting, financial reporting and governance matters. Such inquiries are ongoing, and we have continued to respond to the SEC and DOJ and cooperate in these investigations.

Credit Facility

As of June 30, 2021, letters of credit totaling $431 million were outstanding under our $1.65 billion credit facility, which matures in February 2023. The credit facility contains customary financial covenants, including a debt-to-capitalization ratio that cannot exceed 0.65 to 1.0, a limitation on the aggregate amount of debt of the greater of $750 million or €750 million for our subsidiaries, and a minimum liquidity threshold of $1.5 billion, defined in the amended credit facility, which may be reduced to $1.25 billion upon the repayment of debt. The credit facility also contains provisions that will require us to provide collateral to secure the facility should we be downgraded to BB by S&P and Ba2 by Moody's, such collateral consisting broadly of our U.S. assets. Borrowings under the facility, which may be denominated in USD, EUR, GBP or CAD, bear interest at a base rate, plus an applicable borrowing margin. As of June 30, 2021, we could have borrowed an additional $783 million under our existing credit facility.
Uncommitted Lines of Credit
As of June 30, 2021, letters of credit totaling $915 million were outstanding under uncommitted lines of credit, although no amounts were drawn.
Senior Notes
In June 2021, we used a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of preferred stock to redeem $5 million of outstanding 2023 and 2024 Notes. We recognized $0.1 million in losses related to these redemptions which is included in G&A. In July 2021, we redeemed $21 million of outstanding 2023 and 2024 Notes and recognized $0.8 million in losses.
14. Preferred Stock

In May 2021, we issued 600,000 shares of Series A 6.5% cumulative perpetual convertible preferred stock in a private placement transaction involving a limited number of qualified institutional buyers.

The preferred stock, with respect to dividend rights or rights upon liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of Fluor, ranks (i) senior to all classes of common stock and to each other class of capital stock or series of preferred stock established after the issuance of the Series A preferred stock except in certain circumstances and (ii) junior to the our existing and future indebtedness.

FLUOR CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
UNAUDITED

The preferred stock does not have a maturity date. Cumulative cash dividends on the preferred stock are payable at an annual rate of 6.5% quarterly in arrears on February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15, beginning on August 15, 2021, upon declaration of the dividend by our Board of Directors. Dividends accumulate from the most recent date on which dividends have been paid or, if no dividends have been paid, from the first date of original issuance of the preferred stock. At June 30, 2021, $5 million of dividends on the preferred stock were accumulated however no amounts had been declared or accrued. In July 2021, our Board of Directors approved the payment of a total preferred stock dividend of $10 million.

Each share of preferred stock has a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, plus accumulated but unpaid dividends, and is convertible, at the holder's option at any time into 44.9585 shares of our common stock per share of preferred stock. The conversion rate is subject to certain customary adjustments, but no payment or adjustment for accumulated but unpaid dividends will be made upon conversion, subject to certain limited exceptions. The preferred stock may not be redeemed by us; however, we may, at any time on or after May 20, 2022, elect to cause all outstanding shares of preferred stock to be automatically converted into shares of our common stock at the conversion rate, subject to certain conditions (and, if such automatic conversion occurs prior May 20, 2024, the payment of a cash make-whole premium). If a “make-whole fundamental change” occurs, we will in certain circumstances be required to increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its shares of preferred stock in connection with such make-whole fundamental change.

The shares of preferred stock have no voting rights except if and when dividends on the preferred stock are in arrears and have been unpaid with respect to six or more quarterly dividend payment dates (whether or not consecutive). In such events, the holders of the preferred stock would be entitled to elect two additional directors to the board of directors. Such voting rights are exercisable until all dividends in arrears have been paid in full, at which time the voting rights and the term of the two additional directors terminate.

Concurrent with the issuance of the convertible preferred stock, 200,000 shares of preferred stock previously designated as Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock were eliminated and returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock, without designation.

(1)    Cash consists of bank deposits. Carrying amounts approximate fair value.
(2)    The carrying amounts of these time deposits approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. Amortized cost is not materially different from the fair value.
(3)    Notes receivable are carried at net realizable value which approximates fair value. Factors considered in determining the fair value include the credit worthiness of the borrower, current interest rates, the term of the note and any collateral pledged as security. Notes receivable are periodically assessed for impairment.
(4)     The fair value of the Senior Notes was estimated based on the quoted market prices and Level 2 inputs.
(5)    Other borrowings represent bank loans and other financing arrangements which mature within one year. The carrying amount of borrowings under these arrangements approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity.
16. Stock-Based Compensation
Our executive and director stock-based compensation plans are described more fully in the 2020 10-K. In the 2021 Period, RSUs totaling 596,391 were granted to executives and directors at a weighted-average grant date fair value of $18.67 per share. RSUs granted to executive officers in 2021 and 2020 generally vest over three years. RSUs granted to directors in 2021 and 2020 vested upon grant. The fair value of RSUs represents the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant.
Stock options for the purchase of 481,626 shares at a weighted-average exercise price of $17.96 per share were awarded to executives during the 2021 Period. The exercise price of options represents the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. The options granted in 2021 and 2020 generally vest over three years and expire ten years after the grant date.
Performance-based award units totaling 613,868 were awarded to executive officers during the 2021 Period. These awards generally vest after a period of 3 years and contain annual performance conditions for each of the 3 years of the vesting period. Under GAAP, performance-based awards are not deemed granted until the performance targets have been established. The performance targets for each year are generally established in the first quarter. Accordingly, only one-third of the units awarded in any given year are deemed to be granted each year of the 3 year vesting periods. During 2021, the following units were granted for GAAP purposes:

2020 Performance Award Plan385,455$19.98
2019 Performance Award Plan116,844$20.18
The number of units are adjusted at the end of each performance period based on achievement of certain performance targets and market conditions, as defined in the award agreements. The grant date fair value is determined by adjusting the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant for the effect of the market condition. Units granted under the 2021, 2020 and 2019 performance award plans can only be settled in our stock and are accounted for as equity awards.
There were no RSUs, options or performance-based award units awarded to executives during the 2020 Period. Instead, RSUs, options and performance-based award units were awarded to executives in September 2020 following the filing of our 2019 10-K.

Net periodic pension expense$150 $1,059 $301 $2,120 
We currently expect to contribute up to $16 million into our DB plans during 2021, which we expect to be in excess of the minimum funding required. During the 2021 Period, we made contributions of approximately $12 million.
In addition to our DB plans, we participate in multiemployer pension plans for unionized construction and maintenance craft employees. Company contributions, based on the hours worked by employees covered under various collective bargaining agreements, are recognized as net periodic pension expense. Upon withdrawal from a multiemployer plan, we may have an obligation to make additional contributions for our share of any unfunded benefit obligation, but only if we do not meet the requirements of any applicable exemptions. For one of our discontinued operations, we participate in one multiemployer plan in which we are aware of a significant unfunded benefit obligation. However, we believe we qualify for an exemption and do not believe we have a probable payment to the plan. Therefore, we have not recognized a liability related to this unfunded benefit obligation.
18. Derivatives and Hedging
Derivatives Designated as Hedges
As of June 30, 2021, we had total gross notional amounts of $517 million of foreign currency contracts outstanding (primarily related to the Canadian Dollar, Chinese Yuan, British Pound, Euro, Indian Rupee and Philippine Peso) that were designated as hedges. These foreign currency contracts are of varying duration, none of which extend beyond December 2024. There were no commodity contracts outstanding that were designated as hedges as of June 30, 2021.

20. Discontinued Operations
In the first quarter of 2021, we committed to a plan to sell our Stork business, which had previously represented the
majority of operations from our former diversified services segment. We sold the North American operations of the AMECO equipment business in May 2021 for $71 million and recognized a loss on the sale of $25 million.

The fair value of the Stork assets were determined using an income based approach that utilized unobservable Level 3 inputs, including significant management assumptions such as expected awards, forecasted revenue and operating margins, weighted average cost of capital, working capital assumptions and general market trends and conditions.
The customer relationships' valuation approach utilized unobservable Level 3 inputs including ranges of assumptions of long-term revenue growth from 2% to 5.5% with a weighted average of 2.4%, weighted average cost of capital of 12% and a customer attrition factor of 10%.

FLUOR CORPORATION
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and our 2020 10-K. Except as the context otherwise requires, the terms Fluor or the Registrant, as used herein, are references to Fluor and its predecessors and references to the company, we, us, or our as used herein shall include Fluor, its consolidated subsidiaries and joint ventures.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements made herein, including statements regarding our projected revenue and earnings levels, cash flow and liquidity, new awards and backlog levels and the implementation of strategic initiatives are forward-looking in nature. Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, a “safe harbor” may be provided to us for certain of these forward-looking statements. We wish to caution readers that forward-looking statements, including disclosures which use words such as we “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate” and similar statements, are subject to various risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results of operations to differ materially from expectations. Factors potentially contributing to such differences include, among others:

The severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and actions by governments, businesses and individuals in response to the pandemic;
The cyclical nature of many of the markets we serve and our clients' vulnerability to downturns, which may result in decreased capital investment or expenditures and reduced demand for our services;
Our failure to receive anticipated new contract awards and the related impact on revenue, earnings, staffing levels and cost;
Failure to accurately estimate the cost and schedule for our contracts, resulting in cost overruns or liabilities, including those related to project delays and those caused by the performance of our clients, subcontractors, suppliers and joint venture or teaming partners;
Intense competition in the global EPC industry, which can place downward pressure on our contract prices and profit margins and may increase our contractual risks;
Failure of our joint venture partners to perform their venture obligations, which could impact the success of those ventures and impose additional financial and performance obligations on us, resulting in reduced profits or losses;
Cybersecurity breaches of our systems and information technology;
Civil unrest, security issues, labor conditions and other unforeseeable events in the countries in which we do business, resulting in unanticipated losses;
Project cancellations, scope adjustments or deferrals, or foreign currency fluctuations, that could reduce the amount of our backlog and the revenue and profits that we earn;
Inability to maintain safe work sites;
Repercussions of events beyond our control, such as severe weather conditions, natural disasters, pandemics, political crises or other catastrophic events, that may significantly affect operations, result in higher cost or subject the company to liability claims by our clients;
Differences between our actual results and the assumptions and estimates used to prepare our financial statements;
Client delays or defaults in making payments;
Failure of our suppliers or subcontractors to provide supplies or services at the agreed-upon levels or times;
Uncertainties, restrictions and regulations impacting our government contracts;
The inability to hire and retain qualified personnel;
The potential impact of changes in tax laws and other tax matters including, but not limited to, those from foreign operations, the realizability of our deferred tax assets and the ongoing audits by tax authorities;
Possible systems and information technology interruptions;
The impact of anti-bribery and international trade laws and regulations;
Our ability to secure appropriate insurance;
The failure to be adequately indemnified for our nuclear services;
The loss of business from one or more significant clients;
The failure to adequately protect intellectual property rights;
Impairments to goodwill, investments, deferred tax assets or other intangible assets;
The availability of credit and restrictions imposed by credit facilities, both for us and our clients, suppliers,
subcontractors or other partners;
Possible limitations of bonding or letter of credit capacity;

Table of Contents
Failure to obtain favorable results in existing or future litigation, regulatory proceedings or dispute resolution proceedings (including claims for indemnification), or claims against project owners, subcontractors or suppliers;
Failure of our employees, agents or partners to comply with laws, which could result in harm to our reputation and reduced profits or losses;
The impact of new or changing legal requirements, as well as past and future environmental, health and safety regulations including climate change regulations;
Failure to successfully implement our strategic and operational initiatives;
The risks associated with acquisitions, dispositions or other investments, including the failure to successfully integrate acquired businesses; and
Restrictions on possible transactions imposed by our charter documents and Delaware law.
Any forward-looking statements that we may make are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those anticipated by us. Any forward-looking statements are subject to the risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results of operations, financial condition, cost reductions, acquisitions, dispositions, financing transactions, operations, expansion, consolidation and other events to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements.
Our actual results may differ materially from our expectations or projections. While most risks affect only future cost or revenue, some risks may relate to accruals that have already been reflected in earnings. Our failure to receive payments of accrued amounts or incurrence of liabilities in excess of amounts previously recognized could result in future charges. As a result, readers should recognize and consider the inherently uncertain nature of forward-looking statements and not place undue reliance on them.
Additional information concerning these and other factors can be found in our press releases and periodic filings with the SEC, including the 2020 10-K. These filings are available publicly on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov, on our website at http://investor.fluor.com or upon request from our Investor Relations Department at (469) 398-7070. We cannot control such risk factors and other uncertainties, and in many cases, cannot predict the risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties should be considered when evaluating Fluor and deciding whether to invest in our securities. Except as otherwise required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise our forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Results of Operations
During the first quarter of 2021, we changed the composition of our segments to implement our new strategy and to pursue opportunities in our designated markets. We now report our operating results in four reportable segments as follows: Energy Solutions, Urban Solutions, Mission Solutions and Other. Segment operating information and assets for 2020 have been recast to conform to these changes.
In the first quarter of 2021, we also committed to a plan to sell our Stork business, which had previously represented the majority of operations from our former diversified services segment. The sale of the majority of the AMECO equipment business was completed during May 2021. Therefore, both Stork and AMECO are reported as Disc Ops along with other immaterial operations. We expect to complete the sale of Stork and the remaining AMECO operations near the end of this year or early in 2022. The assets and liabilities of the Stork and AMECO businesses are classified as held for sale for all periods presented.

(1)Total segment profit (loss) is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe that total segment profit (loss) provides a meaningful perspective on our results as it is the aggregation of individual segment profit (loss) measures that we use to evaluate and manage our performance.
Our business has been adversely affected by the economic impacts of the outbreak of COVID-19 and the steep decline in oil prices that occurred in the early part of 2020. These events have created significant uncertainty and economic volatility and disruption, which have impacted and may continue to impact our business. We have experienced, and may continue to experience, reductions in demand for certain of our services and the delay or abandonment of ongoing or anticipated projects due to our clients’, suppliers’ and other third parties’ diminished financial condition or financial distress, as well as governmental budget constraints. Although we initially assessed our project estimates for COVID-19 during the first quarter of 2020, estimating isolated COVID-19 effects became increasingly difficult to measure. Our estimates reflect our best assessment of project results inclusive of COVID-19 effects, which have been dynamic as our projects have seen changes in prevailing regulations as COVID-19 cases crested and fell. These impacts may continue or worsen under prolonged stay-at-home, social distancing, travel restrictions and other similar orders or restrictions. Significant uncertainty still exists concerning the magnitude of the impact and duration of these events, as well as our potential to make recovery from our clients pursuant to the contract and under rule of law.
During the 2021 Quarter and 2021 Period, consolidated revenue declined primarily due to volume declines on projects which were completed or nearing completion across all segments.
During the 2021 Quarter and 2021 Period, improvements in segment profit in the Energy Solutions and Mission Solutions segments were entirely offset by a significant decline in segment profit for Urban Solutions where we recognized a $138 million charge in the current quarter for procurement and subcontractor cost growth on a legacy infrastructure project.
We did not recognize any impairment expense in Cont Ops during the 2021 and 2020 Quarters. Impairment expense, included in Cont Ops, for the 2021 and 2020 Periods is summarized as follows:

Table of Contents
The effective tax rate on earnings (loss) from Cont Ops was (9.3)% for the 2021 Quarter and (4.5)% for the 2021 Period compared to 137.2% and 356.1% for the corresponding periods of 2020. The effective tax rate in 2021 was unfavorably impacted by the increase in the valuation allowances against foreign tax credit carryforwards and certain foreign losses. This 2021 unfavorable impact was partially offset by favorable foreign tax differential. The effective tax rate in the 2020 Period was favorably impacted by the release of valuation allowances and rate benefits resulting from the carryback of our 2019 federal net operating loss as allowed by the CARES Act. This benefit was partially offset by an increase in the valuation allowance against foreign tax credit carryforwards and certain foreign losses, as well as a small addition to uncertain tax benefits. Earnings attributable to non-controlling interests from continuing operations, for which income taxes are not typically our responsibility, favorably impacted the effective tax rate for the 2021 Period.
The lack of broad based new awards could continue to put pressure on our future earning streams. The decline in backlog during the 2021 Period primarily resulted from the removal of approximately $2 billion from backlog due to the cancellation of both a chemicals project and a steel project. Backlog included $1.2 billion for projects in a loss position as of June 30, 2021. Although backlog reflects business that is considered to be firm, cancellations, deferrals or scope adjustments may occur. Backlog is adjusted to reflect any known project cancellations, revisions to project scope and cost, foreign currency exchange fluctuations and project deferrals, as appropriate. Backlog differs from RUPO discussed elsewhere. RUPO includes only the amount of revenue we expect to recognize under contracts with definite terms and substantive termination provisions.
Segment Operations - Comparisons of the 2021 Quarter to the 2020 Quarter and the 2021 Period to the 2020 Period
Energy Solutions
Revenue for the 2021 Quarter and 2021 Period decreased due to declines in the volume of execution activities for the portfolio continuing to be impacted by COVID-19 and other market uncertainties, projects nearing completion as well as the cancellation of a chemicals project in North America. The revenue declines in the 2021 Quarter and 2021 Period were partially offset by the ramp up of execution activities on an LNG project, a chemicals project and a refinery project in Mexico.
Segment profit for the 2021 Quarter and 2021 Period significantly increased. Both 2021 periods benefitted from the negotiation of change orders, scope increases and cost improvements across numerous projects. Both periods also benefitted from the collection of previously reserved accounts receivable and the reversal of the related provision. The increases in 2021 were partially offset by losses on embedded foreign currency derivatives and the decline in execution activity for projects nearing completion. Segment profit for the 2020 Period was adversely affected by the recognition of reserves for expected credit losses on aged receivables and COVID-19 related cost growth. The change in segment profit margin reflects these same factors.
New awards for the 2021 Quarter and 2021 Period increased due to incremental awards for a refinery project in Mexico. Backlog decreased during the 2021 Period primarily due to the cancellation of the chemicals project in North America. Although we expect to benefit from opportunities in the chemicals and non-traditional oil and gas markets, the lack of broad based new awards could continue to put pressure on the segment's earnings in the near and intermediate term.
Urban Solutions

Revenue for the 2021 Quarter and 2021 Period decreased due to the nearing completion of four data center projects in Europe and mining projects in South America and Australia as well as the cancellation of a rail project and a steel project that were in progress in the prior year periods. These revenue declines were partially offset by an increase in execution activities for two mining projects in South America and a roads project in North America.

Segment profit for the 2021 Quarter and 2021 Period significantly declined due to a project charge of $138 million recognized in the current quarter for procurement and subcontractor cost growth, delays and disruptions in the schedule of a legacy infrastructure project. We believe that these cost growth factors may be at least partially recoverable under the contract. However, we expect that it will require several quarters to analyze recoverability and negotiate with our client before recognizing incremental revenue for these factors. The decline in segment profit in the 2021 Period was partially offset by the favorable resolution of a long-standing customer dispute on a rail project. We also sold our interest in an infrastructure joint venture and recognized a gain of $20 million during the 2021 Quarter and 2021 Period. The change in segment profit margin reflects these same factors.

New awards for the 2021 Quarter and 2021 Period decreased partly due to more selectivity in project pursuits and delayed procurement efforts by many of our clients. New awards in the 2021 Period included a large life sciences project in Europe. Backlog declined during the 2021 Period due to the cancellation of a steel project coupled with lower new awards.

Table of Contents
Backlog included $1.1 billion for projects in a loss position as of June 30, 2021. Our staffing business does not report new awards or backlog.
Mission Solutions
Revenue for the 2021 Quarter and 2021 Period remained relatively flat compared to the prior year periods.
The increase in segment profit for the 2021 Quarter and 2021 Period was substantially driven by increased execution activity on our DOE projects, higher than anticipated performance-based fees and the release of COVID-19 cost reserves, partially offset by a decline in execution activity on army logistics and life support programs in Afghanistan and Africa. The change in segment profit margin reflects these same factors.
New awards in the 2021 Quarter and 2021 Period decreased due to an extension of an environmental management contract booked in the 2020 Quarter. Backlog decreased during the 2021 Period due to the decline in new award activity. Backlog included $836 million and $1.0 billion of unfunded government contracts as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

The slight decrease in compensation expense during the 2021 Quarter was primarily due to performance driven compensation including annual bonus projections. The increase in compensation expense during the 2021 Period was primarily due to higher stock price driven compensation on liability awards in the first quarter of 2021.
The increase in net interest expense during the 2021 Period was primarily attributable to costs incurred to refinance our credit facility as well as a decrease in interest income driven by lower interest rates in the 2021 compared to 2020.
We announced in January 2021 that we had begun an undertaking to substantially reduce our overhead costs. Although we have not satisfied the requirements to recognize charges for any restructurings for the 2021 undertaking, we are likely to recognize expense later in 2021.

Critical Accounting Estimates
     Fair Value Measurements. During the first quarter, we performed interim impairment testing of our goodwill associated with Stork and recognized impairment expense of $13 million, which was included in Disc Ops. All other factors being equal, a one hundred basis point change in the discount rate used in the valuation of goodwill would change the fair value by $25 million.

LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
Our liquidity is provided by available cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, cash generated from operations, capacity under our credit facilities and, when necessary, access to capital markets. We have committed and uncommitted lines of credit available for revolving loans and letters of credit. We believe that for at least the next 12 months, cash generated from operations, along with our unused credit capacity and cash position, is sufficient to support operating requirements, but we do have our credit facility and our 2023 Notes maturing in the next 24 months. We regularly review our sources and uses of liquidity and may pursue opportunities to increase our liquidity position to address upcoming maturities.
As of June 30, 2021, letters of credit totaling $431 million were outstanding under our $1.65 billion credit facility, which matures in February 2023. The credit facility contains customary financial covenants, including a debt-to-capitalization ratio that cannot exceed 0.65 to 1.0, a limitation on the aggregate amount of debt of the greater of $750 million or €750 million for our subsidiaries, and a minimum liquidity threshold of $1.5 billion, defined in the amended credit facility, which may be reduced to $1.25 billion upon the repayment of debt. The credit facility also contains provisions that will require us to provide collateral to secure the facility should we be downgraded to BB by S&P and Ba2 by Moody's, such collateral consisting broadly of our U.S. assets. Borrowings under the facility, which may be denominated in USD, EUR, GBP or CAD, bear interest at a base rate, plus an applicable borrowing margin. As of June 30, 2021, we could have borrowed an additional $783 million under our existing credit facility.
Cash and cash equivalents combined with marketable securities were $2.7 billion as of June 30, 2021 and $2.2 billion as of December 31, 2020. Cash and cash equivalents are held in numerous accounts throughout the world to fund our global project execution activities. Non-U.S. cash and cash equivalents amounted to $1.0 billion and $984 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Non-U.S. cash and cash equivalents exclude deposits of U.S. legal entities that are either swept into overnight, offshore accounts or invested in offshore, short-term time deposits, to which there is unrestricted access. 
In evaluating our liquidity needs, we consider cash and cash equivalents held by our consolidated variable interest entities (joint ventures and partnerships). These amounts (which totaled $636 million and $655 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively) were not necessarily readily available for general purposes. We also consider the extent to which client advances (which totaled $168 million and $80 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively) are likely to be sustained or consumed over the near term for project execution activities and the cash flow requirements of our various foreign operations. In some cases, it may not be financially efficient to move cash and cash equivalents between countries due to statutory dividend limitations and/or adverse tax consequences. We did not consider any cash to be permanently reinvested outside the U.S. as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, other than unremitted earnings required to meet our working capital and long-term investment needs in non-U.S. jurisdictions where we operate.

Operating Activities
Cash flows from operating activities result primarily from our EPC activities and are affected by changes in working capital associated with such activities. Working capital levels vary from period to period and are primarily affected by our volume of work and billing schedules on our projects. These levels are also impacted by the stage of completion and commercial terms of engineering and construction projects, as well as our execution of our projects compared to their budget. Working capital requirements also vary by project and the payments terms agreed to with our clients, vendors and subcontractors. Most contracts require payments as the projects progress. Additionally, certain projects receive advance payments from clients. A typical trend for our projects is to have higher cash balances during the initial phases of execution due to deposits paid to us which then diminish toward the end of the construction phase. As a result, our cash position is reduced as customer advances are utilized, unless they are replaced by advances on other projects. We maintain cash reserves and borrowing facilities to provide additional working capital in the event that a project’s net operating cash outflows exceed its available cash balances.
Our operating cash flow for the 2021 Period was negatively impacted by increased funding of COVID-19 costs on our projects, higher cash payments of G&A (including the timing and extent of employee bonuses) and increased tax payments, most of which occurred in the first quarter of 2021. Operating cash flow for the 2021 Quarter significantly improved compared to the first quarter of 2021 due to decreased funding for the above items coupled with a decline in working capital.

We contributed $12 million and $10 million into our DB plans during the 2021 Period and 2020 Period, respectively. We expect to contribute up to $16 million to our DB plans during 2021, which is expected to be in excess of the minimum funding required. The remaining obligations under our Dutch DB plan may be settled in late 2021, subject to regulatory approval. If the plan is settled, we expect that any deferred pension costs in AOCI would be reclassified to earnings upon settlement. For one of our discontinued operations, we participate in one multiemployer plan in which we are aware of a significant unfunded benefit obligation. However, we believe we qualify for an exemption and do not believe we have a probable payment to the plan. Therefore, we have not recognized a liability related to this unfunded benefit obligation.
NuScale expenses were $66 million and $75 million for the 2021 Period and 2020 Period, respectively, and were reported net of qualified reimbursable expenses of $32 million and $33 million during the 2021 Period and 2020 Period, respectively. Capital contributions by NuScale's NCI holders, which reduced the need for additional funding from Fluor in the 2021 Period, are discussed below.
Investing Activities
We hold cash in bank deposits and marketable securities which are governed by our investment policy. This policy focuses on, in order of priority, the preservation of capital, maintenance of liquidity and maximization of yield. These investments may include money market funds, bank deposits placed with highly-rated financial institutions, repurchase agreements that are fully collateralized by U.S. Government-related securities, high-grade commercial paper and high quality short-term and medium-term fixed income securities.

Capital expenditures during the 2021 Period were primarily related to construction equipment on certain infrastructure projects as well as expenditures for facilities and investments in information technology.

Proceeds from sales of assets includes the sale of our 10% ownership interest in an infrastructure joint venture during the 2021 Period.
Investments in unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures in the 2021 Period included a $26 million capital contribution to COOEC Fluor, which satisfied our contractual funding requirements, as well as capital contributions to a recently formed Mission Solutions joint venture. Investments in unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures in the 2020 Period primarily consist of capital contributions to an infrastructure joint venture in the United States.
Financing Activities
We have a common stock repurchase program, authorized by our Board of Directors, to purchase shares in the open market or privately negotiated transactions at our discretion. As of June 30, 2021, over 10 million shares could still be purchased under the existing stock repurchase program, although we don't have any immediate intent to begin such repurchases.

In May 2021, we issued 600,000 shares of Series A 6.5% cumulative perpetual convertible preferred stock in a private placement transaction involving a limited number of qualified institutional buyers. Each share of preferred stock has a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, plus accumulated but unpaid dividends, and is convertible, at the holder's option at any time into 44.9585 shares of our common stock per share of preferred stock. Cumulative cash dividends on the preferred stock are payable at an annual rate of 6.5% quarterly in arrears on February 15, May 15, August 15, and November 15, beginning on August 15, 2021, upon declaration of the dividend by our Board of Directors. We are not permitted to declare or pay dividends on our common stock unless all accumulated and unpaid dividends on the preferred stock have been declared and paid. Assuming that our Board of Directors approves dividends, the preferred stock will require approximately $39 million of annual dividend payments. Moreover, the issuance created added complexity to our quarterly EPS calculations. Accordingly, in determining our diluted earnings impact of the preferred stock, we will now assess the correlation between net earnings attributable to Fluor and dividends on the preferred stock as well as the effect of conversions of the preferred stock into our common stock, which could represent up to 27 million potentially dilutive shares.
In June 2021, we used a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of preferred stock to redeem $5 million of outstanding 2023 and 2024 Notes. In July 2021, we redeemed $21 million of outstanding 2023 and 2024 Notes. We expect to make further substantial debt reductions during the latter half of 2021 using the remaining proceeds from the private placement.
Quarterly cash dividends of $0.10 per common share were declared in the fourth quarter of 2019 and paid in the first quarter of 2020. We suspended our dividend during April 2020. The payment and level of future cash dividends is subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors.

Other borrowings (debt repayments)represent short-term bank loans and other financing arrangements associated with Stork.
Distributions paid to holders of NCI represent cash outflows to partners of consolidated partnerships or joint ventures created primarily for the execution of single contracts or projects. Distributions in the 2021 Period primarily related to a transportation joint venture project in the United States. Distributions in the 2020 Period primarily related to a mining joint venture in Chile.
Capital contributions by NCI during the 2021 Period primarily related to new investments totaling $100 million by NuScale's NCI holders. Fluor and its advisors continue to engage with potential investors and capital providers to fund NuScale's path to commercialization. Capital contributions by NCI during the 2020 Period primarily related to 3 transportation joint venture projects.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Letters of Credit

As of June 30, 2021, letters of credit totaling $431 million were outstanding under committed lines of credit, and letters of credit totaling $915 million were outstanding under uncommitted lines of credit. Letters of credit are provided in the ordinary course of business primarily to indemnify our clients if we fail to perform our obligations under our contracts. Surety bonds may be used as an alternative to letters of credit.
Guarantees

The maximum potential amount of future payments that we could be required to make under outstanding performance guarantees, which represents the remaining cost of work to be performed, was estimated to be $12 billion as of June 30, 2021.
Financial guarantees, made in the ordinary course of business in certain limited circumstances, are entered into with financial institutions and other credit grantors and generally obligate us to make payment in the event of a default by the borrower. These arrangements generally require the borrower to pledge collateral to support the fulfillment of the borrower’s obligation.
Sustainability
Our sustainability mission envisions meeting the needs of our clients while conducting business in a socially, economically and environmentally responsible manner to the benefit of current and future generations, thereby creating value for all stakeholders. We help clients safeguard the environment, conserve energy, protect lives and strengthen economies and social structures of communities.
As a key priority for our sustainability program, we have committed to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions. Early in 2021, we committed to achieving net zero emissions for Scopes 1 and 2 absolute greenhouse gas emissions by the end of 2023.
We have a Sustainability Committee to oversee our sustainability policies, strategies and programs. The Sustainability Committee includes representatives from each of our business segments, as well as a cross-functional team of subject matter experts from communications, health, safety and environmental, investor relations and legal, who serve as advisors to the Sustainability Committee. In furtherance of our Board of Directors' commitment to sustainability, our Board of Directors and Governance Committee reviews and receives reports from management on our sustainability efforts.

PART II:  OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
As part of our normal business activities, we are party to a number of legal proceedings and other matters in various stages of development. Management periodically assesses our liabilities and contingencies in connection with these matters based upon the latest information available. We disclose material pending legal proceedings pursuant to SEC rules and other pending matters as we may determine to be appropriate.
Additional information on matters in dispute may be found in Item 8 of the 2020 10-K and Part I, Item 1 of this Q2 2021 10-Q.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes from our risk factors as disclosed in the 2020 10-K other than for the addition below:
Conversion of our convertible preferred stock will dilute the ownership interest of existing stockholders or may otherwise depress the price of our common stock.
In May 2021, we issued shares of Series A convertible preferred stock. The conversion of some or all of the preferred stock into our common stock will dilute the ownership interests of existing common stockholders. Any public market sales of the common stock issuable upon conversion could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
Our convertible preferred stock has rights, preferences and privileges that are not held by, and are preferential to the rights of, our common stockholders, which could adversely affect the value of the common stock, our liquidity and our financial condition.
Holders of our preferred stock have the right to receive a payment of $1,000 per share, plus accumulated but unpaid dividends, upon our liquidation, winding up or dissolution before any payment may be made to holders of our common stock and other potentially issuable forms of equity. In addition, dividends on the preferred stock accrue and are cumulative at an annual rate of 6.50%. Subject to certain exceptions, we are not permitted to declare or pay dividends on common stock or other classes of equity that are junior to the preferred stock unless all accumulated and unpaid preferred stock dividends have been satisfied.
If dividends on the preferred stock are in arrears and unpaid for six or more quarterly dividend periods, the preferred stockholders will be entitled to elect two additional directors to our board of directors. Such voting rights and the terms of the directors so elected will continue until such time as the dividend arrearage has been rectified. In addition, holders of at least 66⅔% of the outstanding preferred stock is required to issue any equity senior to them.
These dividend obligations could impact our liquidity available for other purposes. Our obligations to and the rights of the preferred stockholders could also limit our ability to obtain additional financing, which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition. The preferred stockholders could also have divergent interests from the holders of our common stock.
Provisions attendant to our preferred stock may deter or prevent a business combination that may be favorable to our stockholders.
If a make-whole fundamental change, as defined in the certificate of designations for the preferred stock, occurs, we will in some cases be required to increase the conversion rate for a preferred stockholder that elects to convert to common stock in connection with the make-whole fundamental change. These and other provisions attendant to the preferred stock could deter or prevent a third party from acquiring us even when the acquisition may be favorable to our stockholders.
