Item 7. 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.

Results of Operations

During the first quarter of 2022, we determined that our Stork business and the remaining unsold AMECO equipment business no longer met all of the requirements to be classified as Disc Ops, primarily as a result of uncertainties related to the timing of this sale. Therefore, both Stork and the remaining AMECO business are reported as Cont Ops for all periods presented and included in our Other segment.

In the second quarter of 2022, NuScale became a public company (NYSE ticker:SMR) through a reverse recapitalization with a public shell company. We continue to control and consolidate NuScale.

In the third quarter of 2022, we agreed to arrangements to facilitate the sail away of a legacy upstream project from the fabrication yard in China. These agreements reduced our exposure to liquidated damages and created partially client funded incentives for the fabricator. Sail away was accomplished during the fourth quarter of 2022.

During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Infrastructure business line progressed commercial resolution of various claims on several projects. A global claim for time and cost relief was submitted to the client on an international bridge project and agreements in principle for schedule relief were achieved on two other domestic infrastructure projects. These actions resulted in a reduction of risk related to the exposure to liquidated damages in the project forecasts.

(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.

During the first quarter of 2022, we suspended any new investment in our Russian operations. We have evaluated our financial exposure through December 31, 2022 and do not believe that, should existing conditions in Eastern Europe persist,

we would have a material impairment of our assets. Our backlog on projects in the impacted region is not significant to future revenue or margin. We continue to monitor the circumstances in Eastern Europe and wind down our existing contractual obligations while complying with all regulatory limitations placed on new and existing business for projects and clients based in the region.

While we experienced reductions in demand for certain services and the delay or abandonment of ongoing or anticipated projects during the COVID pandemic, our ability to win work was not materially impacted by COVID during 2022. Although many of our projects are in a state we consider normal, we continue to deal with the effects of COVID on our operating results as our estimates are inclusive of COVID effects and client recoveries.

During 2022, consolidated revenue declined slightly due to volume declines on projects which were completed or nearing completion in the Urban Solutions and Mission Solutions segments.During 2021, consolidated revenue declined due to volume declines on projects which were completed or nearing completion in the Energy Solutions and Urban Solutions segments as well as the cancellation of three large projects that were in progress in the prior year.

Segment profit for 2022 was relatively flat compared to 2021. During 2021, improvements in segment profit in the Energy Solutions, Mission Solutions and Other segments were partially offset by a significant decline in segment profit for Urban Solutions where we recognized a $138 million charge for procurement and subcontractor cost growth on a legacy infrastructure project.

The effective tax rate from Cont Ops was 70%, (6%) and (8%) for 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. A reconciliation of U.S. statutory federal income tax expense (benefit) to income tax expense (benefit) from Cont Ops follows:

Year Ended December 31,

U.S. statutory federal tax expense (benefit) $ 51 $ (73) $ (58)

Increase (decrease) in taxes resulting from:

State and local income taxes — 12 (12)

Our results were significantly impacted by evolving foreign currency rates in 2022. During 2022, the U.S. dollar appreciated significantly against the Euro, the British Pound and the Canadian Dollar.

Our profit margin percentages, in some cases, may be favorably or unfavorably impacted by a change in the amount of CFM, which are accounted for as pass-through costs.

Table of Contents

The increase in backlog resulted from significant new awards booked during 2022, particularly during the third quarter. 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.

Impairment

Impairment expense, included in Cont Ops, for 2022, 2021 and 2020 is summarized as follows:

Year Ended December 31,

Impairment:

Goodwill associated with the Other reporting unit $ 40 $ 13 $ 169

Intangible customer relationship associated with Stork — — 27

Energy Solutions' equity method investments — 28 86

Information technology assets — 16 16

Fair value adjustment of Stork and AMECO assets (63) 233 74

During 2022, we reversed $63 million of impairment originally recognized in 2021 when our Stork and AMECO businesses were classified as held for sale. The reversal relates primarily to remeasurement under held-and-used impairment criteria, for which CTA balances are excluded from carrying value.

Gain (Loss) on Pension Settlement

In 2021, we settled the majority of the obligations of our largest DB plan, which provided retirement benefits to certain employees in the Netherlands, and recognized a loss on settlement of $198 million. In 2022, we finalized the settlement of the remaining obligations of this plan and recognized a gain on settlement of $42 million.

Segment Operations

We provide professional services in the fields of EPC, fabrication and modularization, and project management services, on a global basis and serve a diverse set of industries worldwide.

Energy Solutions

Revenue in 2022 increased due to the ramp up of execution activities on a chemicals project in China, recently awarded mid-scale LNG projects and refinery projects in Mexicopartially offset by declines in the volume of execution activity for projects nearing completion. Revenue in 2021 decreased due to declines in the volume of execution activities for projects nearing completion and the cancellation of a chemicals project in North America partially offset by the ramp up of execution activities on a refinery project in Mexico and a chemicals project in China.

Segment profit in 2022 was higher due to an increase in execution activities and volume from new and existing LNG projects as well as the ramp up of execution activities on the chemicals project in China and the refinery projects in Mexicopartially offset by declines in the volume of execution activity for projects nearing completion. The increase in segment profit in 2022 was further driven by adjustments to our COVID-related positions on a project. Segment profit in 2021 increased due to the ramp up of execution activities on the refinery project in Mexico and the LNG project in Canada and the collection of previously reserved accounts receivable but was partially offset by losses on embedded foreign currency derivatives, the decline in execution activity for projects nearing completion and the cancellation of the chemicals project in North America. The change in segment profit margin in 2022 and 2021 reflects these same factors.

New awards in 2022 increased due to a large award for a chemicals project in China and mid-scale LNG projects in North America.New awards in 2021 increased due to awards for a refinery project in Mexico. No significant awards were booked in 2020 due to the impact of COVID and declining oil prices on our customers' capital spend. Backlog in 2022 remained relatively flat. Backlog decreased during 2021 primarily due to the cancellation of the chemicals project in North America.

Urban Solutions

Revenue in 2022 decreased primarily due to the completion of three large mining projects partially offset by increased execution activities on a life sciences project and a mining project in South America. Revenue in 2021 decreased due to the close out of 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.

Segment profit in 2022 reflects a $86 million charge for additional rework and schedule delays on a highway project, a $54 million charge for cost growth and delay mitigation costs on an international bridge project and a $35 million charge for subcontractor cost escalation and productivity estimates on an automated people mover project. The decline in segment profit in 2022 was partially offset by a gain on the sale of the majority of our interest in an infrastructure joint venture. Segment profit in 2021 reflects a charge of $138 million for procurement and subcontractor cost growth, delays and disruptions in schedule on the international bridge project.The decline in segment profit in 2021 was further impacted by forecast revisions for schedule delays and productivity on a light rail project but partially offset by the favorable resolution of a long-standing customer dispute on a road project as well as a gain on the sale of our interest in an infrastructure joint venture.The change in 2022 and 2021 segment profit margin reflects the same factors affecting segment profit.

New awards in 2022 increased due to a large metals project in the U.S., mining projects in Australia and Greece and a highway project in Texas.New awards in 2021 decreased partly due to delayed procurement efforts by many of our clients. New awards in 2021 included a large life sciences project in Europe. New awards in 2020 included a highway project in Texas. Backlog increased during 2022 due to the new award activity. Backlog declined during 2021 due to the cancellation of a steel project coupled with lower new awards. Our staffing business does not report new awards or backlog.

Mission Solutions

Revenue in 2022 decreased primarily due to the completion of a DOE contract in 2021,the completion of a contingency and humanitarian support project in the first quarter of 2022 and the closure of LOGCAP in Afghanistan partially offset by increased execution activities on three DOE contracts. Revenue in 2021 was flat compared to 2020. In 2021, the ramp up of execution activities on a contingency and humanitarian support projectwas offset by the decline in revenue related to the closure of LOGCAP in Afghanistan.

The decrease in segment profit in 2022 was driven by the closure of LOGCAP in Afghanistan, the completion of the DOE contract in 2021and the completion of the contingency and humanitarian support project in the first quarter of 2022 partially offset by the favorable resolution of close out items on the completed Army Corps of Engineers project.The increase in segment profit in 2021 was driven by the ramp up of execution activities on the evacuee support project discussed above, increased execution activity on our DOE projects, higher than anticipated performance-based fees, the release of COVID cost reserves and the collection of previously reserved accounts receivable and the reversal of the related provision partially offset by the closure of the army logistics and life support program in Afghanistan.The change in segment profit margin in 2022 and 2021 reflects these same factors.

New awards in 2022 increased due to a 4-year contract extension on the DOE Savannah River Site.New awards in 2021 increased due to extensions on certain DOE projects as well as the award for contingency and humanitarian support for Afghan evacuees. During 2022, the NNSA canceled a significant management and operating contract for two facilities that was previously awarded to a Fluor-led team. We intend to re-bid on the now separate site contacts. Backlog increased during 2022 due to the significant award mentioned above. Backlog included $3.9 billion and $445 million of unfunded government contracts as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Unfunded backlog reflects our estimate of future revenue under awarded government contracts for which funding has not yet been appropriated.

NuScale profit (loss) $ (73) $ (69) $ (84)

The increase in NuScale expenses during 2022 and 2021 was primarily due to an increase in compensation. 2022 also had a slight increase in insurance and R&D. Costs directly related to the reverse recapitalization were recorded as equity. NuScale received capital contributions from outside investors of $193 million during 2021. As of December 31, 2022, Fluor had an approximate 56% ownership in NuScale. During 2022, Stork sold land lease rights in Europe and recognized a gain of $18 million.

Exit costs 7 — —

Reserve for legacy legal claims 5 — —

Gain on sale of land and buildings (11) (13) —

The decrease in compensation expense in 2022 compared to 2021 was driven by $6 million of salary reductions associated with lower headcount and $10 million in lower incentive compensation for our executives. The increase in compensation expense in 2021 compared to 2020 was primarily due to higher stock price driven compensation and higher performance-based compensation including annual bonus projections.

We continue to incur professional fees associated with the SEC investigation. The internal review began in the first quarter of 2020 and was substantially completed in the fourth quarter of 2020.

Net Interest Income (Expense)

The increase in net interest income during 2022 was primarily due to an increase in interest rates on cash deposits including at our joint ventures in Canada and Mexico as well as the redemption of $509 million of 2023 and 2024 Notes in the latter half of 2021. The increase in net interest expense during 2021 was driven by a loss of $20 million on the debt redemption as well as costs to refinance our credit facility.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to our financial statements. The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Estimates are based on information available through the

38

Table of Contents

date of the issuance of the financial statements and, accordingly, actual results in future periods could differ from these estimates. Significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements apply to the following critical accounting policies:

Revenue Recognition for Long-Term Contracts. We recognize our engineering and construction contract revenue over time as we provide services to satisfy our performance obligations. We generally use the cost-to-cost percentage-of-completion measure of progress as it best depicts how control transfers to our clients. The cost-to-cost approach measures progress towards completion based on the ratio of cost incurred to date compared to total estimated contract cost. Use of the cost-to-cost measure of progress requires us to prepare estimates of total expected revenue and cost to complete our projects.

CFM are included in revenue and cost of revenue when (1) we believe that we are acting as a principal rather than as an agent, (2) the contract includes construction activity and (3) we have visibility into the amount the customer is paying for the materials or there is a reasonable basis for estimating the amount. If we lose visibility mid-project, we cease recognizing future CFM but do not de-recognize previous amounts of CFM.

Due to the nature of our industry, there is significant complexity in our estimation of total expected revenue and cost, for which we must make significant judgments. Our contracts with our customers may contain several types of variable consideration, including claims, unpriced change orders, award and incentive fees, liquidated damages and penalties or other provisions that can either increase or decrease the contract price to arrive at estimated revenue. These variable amounts generally are awarded upon achievement of certain performance metrics, program milestones or cost targets and can be based upon customer discretion. We estimate variable consideration at the most likely amount to which we expect to be entitled upon completion of a project. We include estimated amounts in the transaction price to the extent it is probable we will realize that amount. Our estimates of variable consideration and our determination of its inclusion in project revenue are based on an assessment of our anticipated performance and other information that may be available to us.

At a project level, we have specific practices and procedures to review our estimate of total revenue and cost. Each project team reviews the progress and execution of our performance obligations, which impact the project’s accounting outcome. As part of this process, the project team reviews information such as any outstanding key contract matters, progress towards completion and the related program schedule and identified risks and opportunities. The accuracy of our revenue and profit recognition in a given period depends on the accuracy of our project estimates, which can change from period to period due to a variety of factors including:

•Complexity in original design;

•Extent of changes from original design;

•Different site conditions than assumed in our bid;

•The productivity, availability and skill level of labor;

•Limitations associated with workforce distancing;

•Weather conditions when executing a project;

•The technical maturity of the technologies involved;

•Length of time to complete the project;

•Availability and cost of equipment and materials;

•Subcontractor and joint venture partner performance;

•Expected costs of warranties; and

•Our ability to recover for additional contract costs.

We recognize changes in contract estimates on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period in which the changes are identified. Such changes in contract estimates can result in the recognition of revenue in a current period for performance obligations which were satisfied or partially satisfied in prior periods. Changes in contract estimates may also result in the reversal of previously recognized revenue if the current estimate adversely differs from the previous estimate. If we estimate that a project will have costs in excess of revenue, we recognize the total loss in the period it is identified.

Fair Value Measurements. We are often required to use fair value measurement techniques with inputs that require the use of estimates and involve significant judgment. These circumstances include:

•Impairment testing of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles when quantitative analysis is deemed necessary

•Impairment testing of long-lived assets when impairment indicators are present

•Impairment testing of investments as part of other than temporary impairment assessments when impairment indicators are present

•Fair value assessments of businesses held for sale that are reported at fair value less cost to sell

39

Table of Contents

When performing quantitative fair value or impairment evaluations, we estimate the fair value of our assets by considering the results of either or both income-based and market-based valuation approaches. Under the income approach, we prepare a discounted cash flow valuation model using recent forecasts and compare the estimated fair value of each asset to its carrying value. Cash flow forecasts are discounted using the appropriate weighted-average cost of capital at the date of evaluation. The weighted-average cost of capital is comprised of the cost of equity and the cost of debt with a weighting for each that reflects our current capital structure which can be significantly impacted by volatility in interest rates as seen during 2022. Preparation of long-term forecasts involve significant judgments involving consideration of our backlog, expected future awards, customer attrition, working capital assumptions, and general market trends and conditions. Significant changes in these forecasts or any valuation assumptions, such as the discount rate selected, could affect the estimated fair value of our assets and could result in impairment expenses. Under the market approach, we consider market information such as multiples of comparable publicly traded companies and/or completed sales transactions to develop or validate our fair value conclusions, when appropriate and available.

As part of our assessment of goodwill in 2022, we recognized impairment expense of $40 million in our Other segment. The fair value of the Other reporting unit was determined using a combination of observable level 2 inputs, including indicative offers and ongoing negotiations for the related assets.

Litigation and Matters in Dispute Resolution

Item is described more fully in the Notes to Financial Statements.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our liquidity arises from 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. We regularly review our sources and uses of liquidity and may pursue opportunities to address our liquidity needs.

During 2022, Moody's revised our rating outlook to stable due to an improving risk and margin profile resulting from a higher proportion of reimbursable work in backlog as well as our consistent project execution. Our credit facility 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, which is a two notch downgrade from our current S&P credit rating of BBB- and a one notch downgrade from our current Moody's credit rating of Ba1. If we are required to provide collateral, it would consist broadly of liens on our U.S. assets.

In December 2022, we announced the early redemption of our 2023 Notes which totaled €129 million for their face value. This redemption was completed in January 2023, using cash on hand. We expect to address the maturity of the 2024 Notes through available liquidity, cash generated by our operations or via a new securities issue.

As of December 31, 2022, letters of credit totaling $394 million were outstanding under our $1.8 billion credit facility, which was amended in February 2023 to extend the maturity to February 2026. This credit facility contains customary financial covenants, including a debt-to-capitalization ratio that cannot exceed 0.60 to 1.00, 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 $1.2 billion, all as defined in the amended credit facility. 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 December 31, 2022 and through the issuance of this 10-K, we had not made any borrowings under our credit line and maintained a borrowing capacity of $819 million.

Cash and cash equivalents combined with marketable securities would have been $2.5 billion as of December 31, 2022 after the impacts of redeeming all 2023 Notes compared to $2.3 billion as of December 31, 2021. Cash balances as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 include cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities held by NuScale of $338 million and $90 million, respectively. 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 $1.1 billion as of December 31, 2022 and $992 million as of December 31, 2021. Non-U.S. cash and cash equivalents exclude deposits of U.S. legal entities that are invested in offshore, overnight accounts or short-term time deposits, to which there is unrestricted access.

40

Table of Contents

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 $706 million and $630 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively) were not necessarily readily available for general purposes. We do not include our share of cash held by our proportionately consolidated joint ventures and partnerships in our consolidated cash balances even though these amounts may be significant. We also consider the extent to which client advances (which totaled $102 million and $127 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, 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 December 31, 2022 and 2021, other than unremitted earnings required to meet our working capital and long-term investment needs in non-U.S. foreign jurisdictions where we operate.

Operating Activities

Cash flows from operating activities result primarily from our EPC activities and are affected by our earnings level and 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 lump-sum 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. As of December 31, 2022, our backlog included $1.8 billion for loss projects which may have a negative impact on our operating cash flow in future periods.

41

Table of Contents

Our operating cash flow for 2022 and 2021 was negatively impacted by increases in working capital on several large projects as well as higher cash payments of G&A. Operating cash flow in 2021 and 2020 were positively impacted by significant settlement payments on a cancelled rail project. Operating cash flow in 2020 was positively impacted by decreases in project working capital. Our operating cash flow is typically lower in the first quarter of each year due to the timing of payout of employee incentive awards from the prior year.

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 are primarily related to construction equipment on certain infrastructure projects as well as expenditures for facilities and investments in IT.

Proceeds from sales of assets during 2022 include the sale of land and the majority of our interest in an infrastructure joint venture in Canada as well as minor sales of components of Stork and AMECO. Proceeds from sales of assets during 2021 includes the sale of the North American operations of the AMECO equipment business for $71 million as well as our 10% ownership interest in an infrastructure joint venture and a building in the U.S. During 2020, we sold substantially all of the assets of our AMECO equipment business in Jamaica as well as 100% of our interest in an equipment rental business in Europe. Also in 2020, we sold our interests in two infrastructure joint ventures in the Netherlands and one infrastructure joint venture in the U.S.

Investments in unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures in 2022 included capital contributions to a Mission Solutions joint venture and an infrastructure joint venture. Investments in unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures in 2021 included a $26 million capital contribution to COOEC Fluor, which satisfied our contractual funding requirements, as well as capital contributions to an Energy Solutions joint venture and a recently formed Mission Solutions joint venture. Investments in unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures in 2020 included capital contributions to two infrastructure joint ventures in the United States.

Financing Activities

As a result of the reverse recapitalization, NuScale recognized cash of $341 million, consisting of $235 million in PIPE funding and $145 million in cash in trust, partially offset by transaction costs of $39 million.

In April 2022, we sold approximately 5% of the ownership of NuScale to Japan NuScale Innovation, LLC for $107 million, for which CFIUS completed its review in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Cumulative cash dividends on the CPS are payable at an annual rate of 6.5% quarterly in arrears on February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15, upon declaration of the dividend by our Board of Directors. Dividends accumulate from the most recent date on which dividends have been paid. First, second, third and fourth quarter CPS dividends of $10 million were paid in February, May, August and November 2022. In January 2023, our Board of Directors approved the payment of first quarter of 2023 CPS dividends of $10 million, which were paid in February 2023.

Each share of CPS is convertible at the holder's option at any time into 44.9585 shares of our common stock per share of CPS. 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 CPS may not be redeemed by us; however, we are able, since May 20, 2022, to elect to cause all outstanding shares of CPS to be converted into shares of our common stock at the conversion rate, subject to certain conditions (and, if such conversion occurs prior to May 20, 2024, the payment of a cash make-whole premium). The most significant condition to our ability to invoke a conversion prior to May 2024 is the requirement that our common stock trade above $28.92 for 20 consecutive trading days, which occurred in the fourth quarter of 2022 and has persisted into 2023. We estimate that the cash make-whole payment would have been $72 million at December 31, 2022 (assuming we minimally exceed the minimum trading price to invoke the conversion) or $64 million (using the average 5-day trading price leading up to December 31, 2022). If we elect to convert, we would avoid $39 million of annual dividends associated with the CPS. If a make-whole fundamental change, as defined in the certificate of designations for the CPS, occurs, we will in certain circumstances be required to increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert shares of CPS in connection with such make-whole fundamental change.

Dividends on our CPS of $39 million were paid in 2022. Quarterly cash dividends of $0.10 per common share were paid in the first and second quarters of 2020 before we suspended our common stock dividend in April 2020. The payment and level of future cash dividends is subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors.

Table of Contents

During 2022, we redeemed $41 million of aggregate outstanding 2023 Notes, with an immaterial earnings impact. In December 2022, we notified the remaining holders that we would call the remaining €129 million of outstanding 2023 Notes in January 2023, which was completed as anticipated with no earnings impact for $140 million.

In September 2021, we completed a tender offer in which we repurchased $375 million of 2023 Notes and $108 million of 2024 Notes, excluding accrued interest. Additionally, we redeemed $26 million of outstanding 2023 and 2024 Notes in open market transactions during 2021. We recognized $20 million in losses related to these redemptions which was included in interest expense.

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 2022 primarily related to a transportation joint venture. Distributions in 2021 primarily related to a transportation joint venture project in the United States. Distributions in 2020 primarily related to a mining joint venture project in Chile.

Capital contributions by NCI during 2021 primarily related to new investments totaling $193 million by NuScale's NCI holders.

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 December 31, 2022, over 10 million shares could still be purchased under the existing stock repurchase program, although we do not have any immediate intent to begin such repurchases.

Letters of Credit

As of December 31, 2022, letters of credit totaling $394 million were outstanding under committed lines of credit and letters of credit totaling $909 million were outstanding under uncommitted lines of credit. Letters of credit are ordinarily provided 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 $15 billion as of December 31, 2022.

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.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We have cash and marketable securities on deposit with major banks throughout the world. Such deposits are placed with high quality institutions and the amounts invested in any single institution are limited to the extent possible in order to minimize concentration of counterparty credit risk. Marketable securities may consist of time deposits, registered money market funds, U.S. agency securities, U.S. Treasury securities, commercial paper, non-U.S. government securities and corporate debt securities. We have not incurred any credit risk losses related to deposits in cash or investments in marketable securities.

Certain of our contracts are subject to foreign currency risk. We limit exposure to foreign currency fluctuations in most of our contracts through provisions that specify client payments in currencies corresponding to the currency in which cost is expected to be incurred. As a result, we generally have limited situations in which we have to mitigate foreign currency exposure with derivatives.

Our results reported by foreign subsidiaries with non-U.S. dollar functional currencies are also affected by foreign currency volatility. When the U.S. dollar appreciates against the non-U.S. dollar functional currencies of these subsidiaries, our reported revenue, cost and earnings, after translation into U.S. dollars, are lower than what they would have been had the U.S. dollar depreciated against the same foreign currencies or if there had been no change in the exchange rates.

Table of Contents

Our long-term debt typically features a fixed-rate coupon. Our outstanding letters of credit are locked in at credit spread, not borrowing spread. Therefore, our exposure to interest rate risk is not material. However, in the future, new debt issuances could be exposed to increasing interest rates.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As defined in Rule 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Exchange Act, our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures. These controls and procedures should be designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based on their evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2022.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Fluor Corporation

Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

We have audited Fluor Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). In our opinion, Fluor Corporation (the Company) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of Fluor Corporation as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, and the related notes and our report dated February 21, 2023 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Fluor Corporation

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Fluor Corporation (the Company) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements“). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) and our report dated February 21, 2023 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

The segment also continues to serve the traditional oil, gas and petrochemical industries with full project life-cycle services, including expansion and modernization projects as well as sustaining capital work.

Urban Solutions provides EPC and project management services to the infrastructure, advanced technologies and manufacturing, life sciences and mining and metals industries, as well as professional staffing services.

Mission Solutions focuses on federal agencies across the U.S. government and select international opportunities. These include, among others, the DOE, the Department of Defense, the Federal Emergency Management Agency and intelligence agencies. The segment also provides services to commercial nuclear clients.

Other includes the operations of NuScale, in which we are the majority investor. NuScale is developing an SMR technology.

In the first quarter of 2022, we determined that our Stork business and the remaining unsold AMECO equipment business no longer met all of the requirements to be classified as Disc Ops, primarily as a result of uncertainties related to the timing of this sale. Therefore, both Stork and the remaining AMECO business are reported as Cont Ops for all periods presented and included in our Other segment. Further, we remeasured the carrying value of these businesses under the held and used criteria and reversed $63 million of previously recorded impairment expense during the first quarter of 2022. While we continue to market the remaining components of Stork and AMECO for sale, it is unlikely that any eventual sales would qualify for Disc Ops.

2. NuScale Reverse Recapitalization

In the second quarter of 2022, NuScale became a public company (NYSE ticker:SMR) through a reverse recapitalization with a public shell company, Spring Valley, resulting in the net receipt of $341 million of cash and the assumption of $48 million of warrant liabilities exercisable for shares of SMR. We continue to control and consolidate NuScale.

Under the reverse recapitalization, NuScale was the accounting acquirer of Spring Valley which held no significant assets or liabilities requiring fair value re-assessment (outside of cash and warrant liabilities).

3. Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The financial statements include the accounts of Fluor Corporation and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions of consolidated subsidiaries are eliminated. Certain amounts in 2021 and 2020 have been reclassified to conform to the 2022 presentation. 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 December 31, 2022 through the filing date of the 2022 10-K.

We frequently form joint ventures or partnerships with others primarily for the execution of single contracts or projects. If a joint venture or partnership is a VIE and we are the primary beneficiary, the joint venture or partnership is consolidated and our partners' interests are recognized as NCI. As is customary in our industry, for unconsolidated construction partnerships and joint ventures, we generally recognize our proportionate share of revenue, cost and profit and use the one-

line equity method for the investment. In other instances, the cost and equity methods of accounting are used, depending on our respective ownership interest and amount of influence on the entity, as well as other factors. At times, we also execute projects through collaborative arrangements for which we recognize our relative share of revenue and cost.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts. These estimates are based on information available through the date of the issuance of the financial statements. Therefore, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Earnings Per Share

Potentially dilutive securities include CPS, stock options, RSUs 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.

Foreign Currency Translation

Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. For our international subsidiaries, the functional currency is typically the currency of the primary economic environment in which each subsidiary operates. Translation gains and losses are recorded in OCI. Gains and losses from remeasuring foreign currency transactions into the functional currency are recognized in earnings.

Revenue Recognition

Engineering and construction contracts. We recognize engineering and construction contract revenue over time as we provide services to satisfy our performance obligations. We generally use the cost-to-cost percentage-of-completion measure of progress as it best depicts how control transfers to our clients. The cost-to-cost approach measures progress towards completion based on the ratio of cost incurred to date compared to total estimated contract cost. Engineering and construction contracts are generally accounted for as a single unit of account (a single performance obligation) and are not segmented between types of services on a single project. Cost of revenue includes an allocation of depreciation and amortization. Where applicable, CFM, labor and equipment and subcontractor materials, labor and equipment, are included in revenue and cost of revenue when we believe that we are acting as a principal rather than as an agent (i.e., we integrate the materials, labor and equipment into the deliverables promised to the customer). CFM are only included in revenue and cost when the contract includes construction activity and we have visibility into the amount the customer is paying for the materials or there is a reasonable basis for estimating the amount. If we lose visibility mid-project, we cease recognizing future CFM but do not de-recognize previous amounts of CFM. Changes to total estimated contract cost or losses, if any, are recognized in the period in which they are determined as assessed at the contract level. Pre-contract costs are expensed as incurred unless they are expected to be recovered from the client. Project mobilization costs are generally charged to project costs as incurred when they are an integrated part of the performance obligation being transferred to the client. Customer payments on engineering and construction contracts are typically due within 30 to 45 days of billing, depending on the contract.

Service contracts. For the majority of our operations and maintenance contracts, revenue is recognized when services are performed and contractually billable. For all other service contracts, we recognize revenue over time using the cost-to-cost percentage-of-completion method. Service contracts that include multiple performance obligations are segmented between types of services. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, we allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation using an estimate of the stand-alone selling price of each distinct service in the contract. Customer payments on service contracts are typically due within 30 to 90 days of billing, depending on the contract.

Warranties. We generally provide limited duration warranties for work performed under our contracts. Historically, warranty claims have not resulted in material costs incurred, and any estimated costs for warranties are included in the individual project cost estimates for purposes of accounting for long-term contracts.

Practical Expedients. If we have a right to consideration from a customer in an amount that corresponds directly with the value of our performance completed to date (a service contract in which we bill a fixed amount for each hour of service provided), we recognize revenue in the amount to which we have a right to invoice for services performed. We do not adjust the contract price for the effects of a significant financing component where, at contract inception, the period between service provision and customer payment will be one year or less. We exclude from the measurement of the transaction price

all taxes assessed by governmental authorities that are collected by us from our customers (use taxes, value added taxes, some excise taxes).

RUPO. RUPO represents a measure of the value of work to be performed on contracts awarded and in progress. Although RUPO reflects business that is considered to be firm, cancellations, deferrals or scope adjustments may occur. RUPO is adjusted to reflect any known project cancellations, revisions to project scope and cost, foreign currency exchange fluctuations and project deferrals, as appropriate. RUPO differs from backlog discussed elsewhere in the 2022 10-K. Backlog includes the amount of revenue we expect to recognize under ongoing operations and maintenance contracts for the remainder of the current year renewal period plus up to three additional years if renewal is considered to be probable, while RUPO includes only the amount of revenue we expect to recognize under ongoing operations and maintenance contracts with definite terms and substantive termination provisions. RUPO also includes estimates of CFM in those instances where the criteria for recognition have been satisfied.

Project Estimates

Due to the nature of our industry, there is significant complexity in our estimation of total expected revenue and cost, for which we must make significant judgments. Our contracts with our customers may contain several types of variable consideration, including claims, unpriced change orders, award and incentive fees, liquidated damages and penalties or other provisions that can either increase or decrease the contract price to arrive at estimated revenue. These variable amounts generally are earned upon achievement of certain performance metrics, program milestones or cost targets and can be based upon customer discretion. We estimate variable consideration at the most likely amount to which we expect to be entitled upon completion of a project. We include estimated amounts in the transaction price to the extent it is probable we will realize that amount. Our estimates of variable consideration and our determination of its inclusion in project revenue are based on an assessment of our anticipated performance and other information that may be available to us.

At a project level, we have specific practices and procedures to review our estimate of total revenue and cost. Each project team reviews the progress and execution of our performance obligations, which impact the project’s accounting outcome. As part of this process, the project team reviews information such as any outstanding key contract matters, progress towards completion and the related program schedule and identified risks and opportunities. The accuracy of our revenue and profit recognition in a given period depends on the accuracy of our project estimates, which can change from period to period due to a variety of factors including:

•Complexity in original design;

•Extent of changes from original design;

•Different site conditions than assumed in our bid;

•The productivity, availability and skill level of labor;

•Limitations associated with workforce distancing;

•Weather conditions when executing a project;

•The technical maturity of the technologies involved;

•Length of time to complete the project;

•Availability and cost of equipment and materials;

•Subcontractor and joint venture partner performance;

•Expected costs of warranties; and

•Our ability to recover for additional contract costs.

We recognize changes in contract estimates on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period in which the changes are identified. Such changes in contract estimates can result in the recognition of revenue in a current period for performance obligations which were satisfied or partially satisfied in prior periods. Changes in contract estimates may also result in the reversal of previously recognized revenue if the current estimate adversely differs from the previous estimate. If we estimate that a project will have costs in excess of revenue, we recognize the total loss in the period it is identified.

Contract Assets and Liabilities

Contract assets represent revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed and include unbilled receivables (typically for cost reimbursable contracts) and contract work in progress (typically for fixed-price contracts). Unbilled receivables, which represent an unconditional right to payment subject only to the passage of time, are recognized as accounts receivable when they are billed. Advances that are payments on account of contract assets are deducted from contract assets. We anticipate

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

that substantially all incurred cost associated with contract assets as of December 31, 2022 will be billed and collected within one year. Contract liabilities represent amounts billed to clients in excess of revenue recognized to date.

Segment Reporting

Management evaluates segment performance based on segment profit. We incur cost and expenses and hold certain assets at the corporate level which relate to our business as a whole. Certain of these amounts are allocated to our business segments by various methods, largely on the basis of estimated usage or on pro rata revenue. Total assets not allocated to segments and held in "Corporate and other" primarily include cash, marketable securities, income-tax related assets, pension assets, deferred compensation trust assets and corporate property, plant and equipment.

Segment profit is an earnings measure that we utilize to evaluate and manage our business performance. Segment profit is calculated as revenue less cost of revenue and earnings attributable to NCI.

Variable Interest Entities

We assess our partnerships and joint ventures at inception to determine if any meet the qualifications of a VIE. We consider a partnership or joint venture a VIE if it has any of the following characteristics:

(a) the total equity investment is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support,

(b) characteristics of a controlling financial interest are missing (either the ability to make decisions through voting or other rights, the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity or the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity), or

(c) the voting rights of the equity holders are not proportional to their obligations to absorb the expected losses of the entity and/or their rights to receive the expected residual returns of the entity, and substantially all of the entity's activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights.

We regularly reassess our initial determination of whether the partnership or joint venture is a VIE. The majority of our partnerships and joint ventures qualify as VIEs because the total equity investment is typically nominal and not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support.

We also perform a qualitative assessment of each identified VIE to determine if we are its primary beneficiary. We conclude that we are the primary beneficiary and consolidate the VIE if we have both:

(a) the power to direct the economically significant activities of the entity and

(b) the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

We consider the contractual agreements that define the ownership structure, distribution of profits and losses, risks, responsibilities, indebtedness, voting rights and board representation of the respective parties in determining if we are the primary beneficiary. We also consider all parties that have direct or implicit variable interests when determining whether we are the primary beneficiary. Management's assessment of who is the primary beneficiary of a VIE is regularly undertaken.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include securities with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase.

Marketable Securities

Marketable securities consist of time deposits placed with investment grade banks with original maturities greater than three months, which are typically held-to-maturity because we have the intent and ability to hold them until maturity. Held-to-maturity securities are carried at amortized cost. The cost of securities sold is determined by using the specific identification method. Marketable securities are assessed at least annually for other-than-temporary impairment.

Research and Development

We have a controlling interest in NuScale, a research and development operation associated with the licensing and commercialization of SMR technology. Since May 2014, NuScale has been receiving reimbursement from the DOE for certain qualified expenditures under cost-sharing award agreements that require NuScale to use the DOE funds to cover engineering costs associated with SMR design development and certification. Costs incurred by NuScale are expensed as incurred, net of qualifying DOE reimbursements, and reported in "Cost of revenue". The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission approved NuScale's design certification application in August 2020. Aside from NuScale, we generally do not engage in significant research and development activities.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their economic lives or the lease terms.Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the following ranges of estimated useful service lives, in years:

Estimated Useful Service Lives

Building and leasehold improvements 6 – 20

Machinery and equipment 2 – 10

Furniture and fixtures 2 – 10

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized but are subject to at-least-annual impairment tests during the fourth quarter. For impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to the applicable reporting units based on the current reporting structure. We may elect to utilize a qualitative assessment to evaluate whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of each reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If so, we perform a quantitative test, and if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, we recognize an impairment loss. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are impaired if their carrying value exceeds their fair value. Acquired in-process research and development associated with our investment in NuScale is considered indefinite lived until the related technology is available for commercial use.

Interim impairment testing of goodwill and intangible assets is performed if indicators of potential impairment exist. Such indicators may include the results of operations of certain businesses and geographies and the performance of our stock price.

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax filings. We evaluate the realizability of our deferred tax assets and record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be realized. The factors used to assess the likelihood of realization are our forecast of future taxable income and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize such assets. Failure to achieve forecasted taxable income could affect the ultimate realization of deferred tax assets and could adversely impact our future effective tax rate.

Income tax positions are recognized when they meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are derecognized upon such determination. We recognize potential interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax positions as a component of income tax expense.

Judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes as we consider our worldwide taxable earnings and the impact of the continuing audit process conducted by relevant tax authorities. The final outcome of any audits could differ materially from amounts recognized by us. We account for the GILTI effects in the period that is subject to such tax.

Derivatives and Hedging

We attempt to limit foreign currency exposure in most of our contracts by denominating contract revenue in the currencies in which cost is incurred. Certain financial exposure, which includes currency and commodity price risk associated with engineering and construction contracts, currency risk associated with monetary assets and liabilities denominated in nonfunctional currencies and risk associated with interest rate volatility, may subject us to earnings volatility. We may utilize derivatives to mitigate such risk. All derivatives are recorded at fair value. The change in the fair value of the derivative is offset against the change in the fair value of the underlying asset or liability through earnings when the derivative does not qualify as a hedge. To a lesser extent, we utilize cash flow hedges. We formally document our hedge relationships at inception and subsequently assess hedge effectiveness qualitatively, unless the hedge relationship is no longer highly effective. For cash flow hedges, the change in fair value is recorded as a component of AOCI and is reclassified into earnings when the hedged item settles. In certain limited circumstances, foreign currency payment provisions could be deemed embedded derivatives. If an embedded foreign currency derivative is identified, the derivative is bifurcated from the host contract and the change in fair value is recognized through earnings. We maintain master netting arrangements with certain counterparties to facilitate the settlement of derivative instruments; however, we report the fair value of derivatives on a gross basis.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Accounts receivable and all contract work in progress are from clients in various industries and locations throughout the world. Most contracts require payments as the projects progress or, in certain cases, advance payments. We generally do not require collateral, but in most cases can place liens against the project assets or terminate the contract, if a material default occurs. We evaluate the counterparty credit risk as part of our bidding process, our project risk review process and in determining the appropriate level of reserves during project execution. We maintain reserves for potential credit losses and generally such losses have been minimal and within management's estimates.

We have cash and marketable securities on deposit with major banks throughout the world. Such deposits are placed with high quality institutions and the amounts invested in any single institution are limited to the extent possible in order to minimize concentration of counterparty credit risk.

Our counterparties for derivatives are large financial institutions selected based on profitability, strength of balance sheet, credit ratings and capacity for timely payment of financial commitments. There are no significant concentrations of credit risk with any individual counterparty related to our derivative contracts.

We monitor the credit quality of our counterparties and establish reserves for any significant credit risk losses.

Stock-Based Compensation

Our stock plans provide for grants of nonqualified or incentive stock options, RSUs, restricted stock and performance-based award units. All grants of stock options and RSUs as well as performance-based units awarded to Section 16 officers in 2022, 2021 and 2020 can only be settled in company stock and are accounted for as equity awards.

All expense under stock-based awards is recognized based on the fair values of the awards. Stock option awards have grant exercise prices equal to the grant date market price of our stock. The fair value of grants of RSUs and restricted stock is determined using the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant but may be discounted for any significant post-vest holding periods. The grant date fair value of performance-based award units is determined by adjusting the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant for any post-vest holding period discounts and for the effect of market conditions, when applicable. Stock-based compensation expense is generally recognized over the required service period, or over a shorter period when the grantee is or becomes retirement eligible.

We also grant SGI awards and performance-based awards to non-Section 16 executives which are settled in cash. These awards are classified as liabilities and remeasured at fair value through expense at the end of each reporting period until the awards are settled.
