Significant contract wins in HY23

Our order book at 30 June 2023 was around $6 billion, 不包括墨西哥湾业务,按固定汇率计算上涨3%5. 今年上半年获得的重要合同包括:

  • 两年c.与东南亚一家主要生产商签订了价值2.5亿美元的运营和棕地工程服务合同
  • 与欧洲锰公司签订了大型工程服务合同,提供可持续的矿物加工
  • 在美国与GSK签订了价值约5000万美元的重大生命科学工程合同
  • 为雪佛龙可再生能源集团的生物燃料设施提供扩展支持

HY23 financial highlights
  • 收入c.$2.9 billion was up around 15% (+18% at constant currency). 所有业务部门增长良好,项目增长强劲(+26%),其中包括更高的传递收入,与去年上半年的疲软相比
  • Adjusted EBITDA of c.$195 million was up around 6% (+10% at constant currency). Reflecting revenue growth partly offset by a lower margin
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin around 7% compared to 7.去年2%. 较低的利润率反映了项目传递收入的增加,以及我们之前指导的整个集团的运营投资,以实现未来的增长
  • Net debt (excl. leases) at 30 June 2023 around $650 million1,2compared to $393 million at 31 December 2022. This cash outflow reflects:
    • Expected phasing of exceptional cash outflows, 今年上半年,中国流出了约1亿美元的资金.$135 million expected for the full year

  • Net debt / EBITDA (excluding leases) at 30 June 2023 was c.2.2倍

Q2 financial highlights

Revenue in Q2 was around $1.50亿美元,比去年增长约11%(按固定汇率计算增长14%),所有业务部门都实现了增长. Adjusted EBITDA was in line with our expectations.

Outlook for 2023 unchanged

我们预计23财年的业绩将符合我们的中期财务目标,即调整后的EBITDA复合年增长率将达到中高个位数, with momentum building as we deliver our strategy.

如前所述,我们的业务产生了强劲的潜在运营现金流. In 2023, 这将被预计的约1.35亿美元的特殊资金流出和出售建筑环境咨询公司所支付的约6000万美元的剩余税款所抵消. As we look ahead, 我们预计今年下半年自由现金流为正, and positive free cash flow in 2024 as previously guided.

Trading across businesses

咨询 saw strong revenue growth of around 9% to c.$0.我们在能源安全和能源转型领域的解决方案持续增长.

Adjusted EBITDA was c.3800万美元. This reflects a lower margin of c.12% compared to c.去年13%, 这反映了我们去年上半年退出俄罗斯业务的影响,并增加了支持未来增长的投资.

项目 saw very strong revenue growth of around 26% to c. $1.2 billion as our recovery in this business accelerated. This partly reflects increased pass-through revenue, which was approximately half of the growth, and a softer comparator in H1 2022. 考虑到2022年下半年的强劲对比,下半年的收入增长将显著降低.

Adjusted EBITDA was around 8% higher at c.$88 million with the margin lower than last year at around 7.1%, mainly reflecting the impact of pass-through revenue.

操作 saw like-for-like revenue growth of around 9% to c.$1.20亿美元,不包括墨西哥湾业务的出售5,6. 这一增长反映了整个企业更高的活动水平.

Adjusted EBITDA was broadly flat year-on-year at c.7500万美元.

Investment Services saw adjusted EBITDA at c.2500万美元,反映了我们涡轮机合资企业的强劲表现.

成本中心 were around $30 million.
