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. A discussion and analysis of the operating results of 2023 compared to 2022 are included in our 2023 10-K and have not been repeated in this 10-K.

Developments in Our Business

In the first quarter of 2024, we completed the sale of Stork's operations in continental Europe. During April 2024, we also entered into a definitive agreement to sell Stork's U.K. operations, which we completed in the first quarter of 2025. The sale did not meet the requirements for discontinued operations as of December 31, 2024 and will not have a material impact on the financial statements. In the third quarter of 2024, we decided to close our Stork operations in Trinidad and Tobago which required us to take a $7 million severance charge. After completing the wind down of the Trinidad and Tobago operations, Stork's divestiture will be complete.

Beginning in October 2024, based principally on their equity sales, we no longer met the criteria to consolidate NuScale. As a consequence, their results for all periods prior to October 2024 were consolidated, but we deconsolidated NuScale after that date and recognized a pre-tax gain of $1.6 billion in the fourth quarter of 2024, based on a stock price of $13.15 for our 126 million shares. We recognize the fair value of our investment in NuScale on a mark-to-market basis based upon the prevailing price of their stock on our balance sheet dates, which resulted in an additional pre-tax gain of $604 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. After its deconsolidation, NuScale is included in equity method earnings on our statement of operations.

Table of Contents

(1)Total segment profit and margin are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that total segment profit provides a meaningful perspective on our results as it is the aggregation of individual segment profit measures that we use to evaluate and manage our performance.

(2)Backlog represents the total amount of revenue we expect to record in the future based upon contracts that have been awarded to us. Backlog is stated in terms of gross revenues and may include significant estimated amounts of third-party, subcontracted, CFM and pass-through costs as well as other forms of variable consideration. For projects related to proportionately consolidated joint ventures, we include only our percentage ownership of each joint venture's backlog. We recognize new awards into backlog when we and our client have approved the contract (written or verbal) and are committed to perform our respective obligations. 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 in this 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 3 additional years if renewal is considered to be probable, while RUPO includes only the amount of revenue we expect to recognize under contracts with definite terms and substantive termination provisions. In 2025, we expect to execute approximately half of our ending 2024 backlog.

(3)Includes backlog of $702 million and $1.3 billion for legacy projects in a loss position as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Consolidated revenue increased in 2024 primarily driven by an increase in execution activities on several recently awarded projects in our Urban Solutions segment partially offset by revenue declines in Energy Solutions and Mission Solutions.

Earnings before taxes significantly improved in 2024 driven by an increase in execution activities on recently awarded life sciences and mining projectsas well as the completion or resolution of certain legacy projects in 2024, partially offset by declines in profit due to the recognition of inflation-adjusted variable consideration on certain projects in 2023. The improvement in earnings before taxes in 2024 was also attributable to losses recognized in 2023 on the sales of our AMECO and Stork businesses in Latin America. Further, earnings before taxes in 2024 included a foreign currency gain compared to a loss in 2023.

Net earnings excluding amounts attributable to equity method earnings were as follows:

In 2024, we received refunds of $169 million, including interest, from the IRS attributable to the 2013 tax year that was originally recognized as a receivable in 2020 pursuant to the CARES Act.

Beginning in January 2024, many non-US tax jurisdictions have enacted or are in the process of enacting legislation to adopt a minimum effective tax rate described in the Global Anti-Base Erosion Model Rules, also known as Pillar Two. Pillar Two establishes a global minimum tax of 15% on large multinational corporations. We considered the applicable tax law changes in the countries in which we operate and have determined that there is no material impact to our tax provision in 2024. We will continue to evaluate the impact of these tax law changes on future periods.

Our results were significantly impacted by evolving foreign currency rates in 2024. During 2024, the U.S. dollar appreciated against the Euro, British Pound, Canadian Dollar and Mexican Peso.

Our profit margin percentages may be favorably or unfavorably impacted by a change in the amount of CFM recorded. We record revenue on a gross basis, including CFM when we have concluded that we are a principal with respect to such materials and services, though the timing of CFM receipt can significantly impact completion percentage.

Segment Operations

We are one of the larger technical and professional services firms providing engineering and design, project management, procurement, construction, operations and maintenance, and fabrication and modularization services.

Urban Solutions

Revenue in 2024 significantly increased compared to 2023 primarily due to the ramp up of execution activities on several recently awarded projects including two life sciences projects, a large metals project, a green steel projectand a large mining project.

Segment profit increased in 2024 due to the ramp up of several recently awarded projects, partially offset by cost growth on an infrastructure project. Segment profit in 2024 included an agreement to the terms of a change order on a legacy infrastructure project compared to a $59 million charge for rework associated with subcontractor design errors and related schedule impacts on the same project during 2023. Further, segment profit in 2023 included the favorable settlement of a claim on an international bridge project. The changes in segment profit margin in 2024 reflect these same factors.

New awards in 2024 included a large life sciences project, an incremental award on a large metals project as well as several significant contract extensions for Plant & Facility Services. Backlog increased during 2024 due to these 2 large awards. Our staffing business does not report new awards or backlog.

Results for the fourth quarter of 2024. Segment profit in the fourth quarter of 2024 significantly decreased due to the favorable settlement of a claim on an international bridge project during 2023.

Table of Contents

Energy Solutions

Revenue declined during 2024 primarily due to a decline in execution activity for several projects nearing completion, a deferral of revenue recognized on a large project due to reduced productivity and lower revenue on our refinery projects in Mexico as well as revenue on inflation-adjusted variable consideration recognized in 2023. The decreases in revenue during 2024 were partially offset by the ramp up of execution activities on 3 chemicals projects.

Segment profit declined in 2024 primarily due to the initial recognition of inflation-adjusted variable consideration on certain downstream projects during 2023. Segment profit in 2024 was also impacted by cost growth related to schedule delays and reduced productivity on a large project in the late stages of execution. We recognized a positive adjustment upon the negotiation of change orders on the same project in 2023. Further, cost growth on a construction-only subcontract executed by our joint venture in Mexico resulted in charges totaling $66 million during 2024. The decrease in segment profit during 2024 was partially offset by final negotiations and handover of a large upstream legacy project which was completed during the second quarter of 2024. We recorded $91 million for cost growth on the now-completed project during 2023. Segment profit in 2024 also included gains of $47 million on embedded foreign currency derivatives compared to a loss of $17 million in 2023. The changes in segment profit margin in 2024 reflect these same factors.

New awards and backlog were lower in 2024 compared to 2023. New awards booked during 2024 included a full notice to proceed on a downstream project in Mexico. Backlog declined during 2024 due to the execution pace exceeding new award activity.

Results for the fourth quarter of 2024. Segment profit in the fourth quarter of 2024 significantly increased which reflected $33 million for cost growth and schedule extension in 2023 on the now-completed, large upstream legacy project.

Mission Solutions

Revenue declined slightly during 2024 compared to 2023 primarily due to the cancellation of a project in late 2023.

Segment profit and profit margin significantly improved during 2024 primarily due to the recognition of a $30 million charge in 2023 for cost growth associated with schedule delays on a weapons facility project that is now complete. The increase in segment profit and profit margin in 2024 was further driven by improved performance on 2 DOE contracts in 2024, partially offset by the cancellation of the aforementioned project.

New awards increased during 2024 compared to 2023 due to task order contracts awarded under the Air Force Contract Augmentation Program Vas well as contract extension awards at two DOE sites. Backlog included $665 million and $2.7 billion of unfunded government contracts as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.Unfunded backlog reflects our estimate of future revenue under awarded government contracts for which funding has not yet been appropriated. We do not report new awards or backlog for projects related to our equity method investments even though these awards may be significant contributors to earnings in future periods. For example, our new awards and backlog does not reflect the Pantex management and operations contract, recently awarded to a joint venture in which we have significant influence but a noncontrolling interest. The estimated value of the contract to the joint venture is $30 billion, if all of the 5-year options are exercised.

Other

Other includes the operations of NuScale prior to deconsolidation and the operations of the remaining Stork and AMECO business prior to their sale.

Table of Contents

Segment profit in 2024 includes a $7 million charge for severance expected upon liquidation of Stork's operations in Trinidad and Tobago as well as an $11 million gain on the sale of Stork's operations in continental Europe. We completed the sale of Stork's U.K. operations in the first quarter of 2025. With the completion of the Stork U.K. divestiture, we expect the results of this segment to be immaterial in 2025.

Segment profit in 2023 includes a $60 million negative earnings impact on the sale of our AMECO South America business (including $35 million for foreign currency translation) and a $93 million negative earnings impact on the sale of our Stork business in Latin America (including cash paid to the buyer of $31 million and $33 million for foreign currency translation).

The decrease in compensation expense in 2024 was primarily driven by lower performance-based compensation. The increase in exit costs in 2024 was driven by the Stork divestiture.

Net Interest Income (Expense)

The decrease in net interest income during 2024 was primarily due to a decrease in 2024 interest rates earned on cash deposits including at our joint ventures in Canada and Mexico as well as the interest savings following the extinguishment of our 2024 Notes at the end of 2023.

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 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.

37

Table of Contents

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. Certain variable consideration, such as award and incentive fees, 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;

•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 required to use fair value measurement techniques with inputs that require the use of estimates and involve significant judgment for our impairment testing and in measuring held for sale assets. We estimate the fair value of our assets by considering the results of either the income-based or market-based valuation approach. 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 impacted by volatility in interest rates. 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.

We elected the fair value option of accounting for our investment in NuScale that would have otherwise been recorded under the equity method of accounting. We recognize the fair value of our investment in NuScale on a mark-to-market basis based upon the prevailing price of their stock on our balance sheet dates, which may subject our consolidated earnings to volatility. No estimates are used in the determination of the fair value of our investment in NuScale.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our liquidity arises from available cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, cash generated from operations, capacity under our credit facility 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, anticipated cash generated from operations, along with our unused credit capacity and cash position, is sufficient to support operating requirements and debt maturities. We regularly review our sources and uses of liquidity and may pursue opportunities to address our liquidity needs.

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 one notch downgrade from both agencies' current ratings. If we are required to provide collateral, it would consist broadly of liens on our U.S. assets.

As of December 31, 2024, letters of credit totaling $483 million were outstanding under our $1.8 billion credit facility, which was amended in February 2025 to increase the facility to $2.2 billion and extend the maturity to February 2028. The prior and amended credit facility contains customary financial covenants, including a debt-to-capitalization ratio that cannot exceed 0.60 to 1.00, based upon total shareholders' equity excluding AOCI, 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, which may be reduced to $1.0 billion upon the repayment of debt. Borrowings under the facility, which may be denominated in USD, EUR or GBP, bear interest at a base rate, plus an applicable borrowing margin. As of December 31, 2024 and through the issuance of this 10-K, we had not made any borrowings under our credit line. We have a sublimit of up to $1.0 billion in aggregate cash advances and financial letters of credit available to us under our credit facility with a current borrowing capacity of $834 million.

Cash and cash equivalents combined with marketable securities were $3.0 billion and $2.6 billionas of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Our cash balance as of December 31, 2023 includes cash held by NuScale of $118 million. With the deconsolidation of NuScale beginning in October 2024, cash balances held by NuScale are no longer included in our cash and cash equivalents. 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 both December 31, 2024 and 2023. 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.

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 $333 million and $491 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, 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 $79 million and $80 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, 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, 2024 and 2023, other than unremitted earnings required to meet our working capital and long-term investment needs in non-U.S. foreign jurisdictions where we operate.

In December 2024, we used $125 million to repurchase and cancel 2,353,280 shares of common stock under our repurchase program. Over 28,000,000 shares could still be purchased under the repurchase program as of December 31, 2024. Between January 1, 2025 and February 14, 2025, we repurchased and canceled approximately 0.7 million shares of our common stock for $37 million. We will continue to repurchase shares of our stock throughout 2025 to return capital to our shareholders.

Operating Activities

Cash flows from operating activities result primarily from our core 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, 2024, our backlog included $702 million for ongoing legacy projects in a loss position, including approximately $237 million of estimated unfunded losses associated therewith. The comparable amounts in 2023 were $1.3 billion of backlog and $344 million of unfunded losses.

Table of Contents

Our operating cash flow for 2024 significantly improved driven by decreases in working capital on several large projects. The improvement in operating cash flow was also attributable to customer payments on several large projects, distributions from joint ventures of $367 million and refunds of $169 million, including interest, from the IRS attributable to the 2013 tax year that was originally recognized as a receivable in 2020 pursuant to the CARES Act. We also funded an estimated $99 million on loss projects during 2024.

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 in 2024 were primarily related to improvements to our new office lease in Houston compared to expenditures for construction equipment and investments in IT in 2023.

Proceeds from sales of assets during 2024 included $67 million for the sale of our Stork's European business compared to $17 million for the sale of our AMECO South America business in 2023.

Investments in unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures in 2024 included capital contributions to 3 infrastructure joint ventures and an Energy Solutions joint venture compared to capital contributions to 3 infrastructure joint ventures and a Mission Solutions joint venture in 2023.

Return of capital from partnerships and joint ventures in 2024 included capital distribution from an infrastructure joint venture.

Financing Activities

We have a stock repurchase program, authorized by our Board of Directors, to purchase shares in the open market or privately negotiated transactions at our discretion. In November 2024, the Board authorized an additional 20,000,000 shares to the repurchase program. In December 2024, we repurchased 2,353,280 shares of common stock under the repurchase program for total consideration of $125 million. As of December 31, 2024, over 28,000,000 shares could still be purchased under the repurchase program.

Key provisions of our debt and debt-related matters are described in the notes to the financial statements. During 2024, we redeemed $57 million of aggregate outstanding 2028 Notes. During 2023, we redeemed the remaining €129 million of outstanding 2023 Notes for $140 million and completed a tender offer in which we repurchased $115 million of outstanding 2024 Notes, excluding accrued interest, for consideration of $975.03 per $1,000 principal amount of the notes.

In August 2023, we issued our 1.125% Convertible Senior Notes (the “2029 Notes”). The conversion rate for the 2029 Notes is 22.0420 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of $45.37 per share. Holders may convert their 2029 Notes any time before May 2029 under the following conditions:

•if the last reported price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to $58.98 on each applicable trading day;

•during the 5-business day period after any 5-consecutive trading day period in which the trading price of the 2029 Notes was less than 98% of the product of the last reported stock price and the conversion rate;

•if we call any or all of the 2029 Notes for redemption; or

•upon the occurrence of specified events as described in the applicable indenture.

In addition, holders may convert their 2029 Notes any time beginning in May 2029 and prior to maturity without regard to the foregoing circumstances. Upon any conversion, we will repay the principal amount of the notes in cash and may elect to convey the conversion premium in any combination of cash and shares of our common stock. Certain events could cause the conversion rate to increase, including a make-whole fundamental change or redemption, but in no event will the conversion rate for a single note exceed 29.2056 shares of our common stock, other than for customary adjustments described in the applicable indenture.

After August 2026, we may elect to redeem up to all of the outstanding 2029 Notes if our common stock has a prevailing per share closing price in excess of $58.98. In such election, all principal would be settled in cash and could result in a make-whole premium if the holders also elect to convert. We may elect to pay any make-whole premium in any combination of cash and shares of our common stock.

Table of Contents

In connection with the 2029 Notes offering, we entered into capped call transactions with certain banks. The strike price of the capped call options corresponds to the conversion price of the 2029 Notes of $45.37 per share. The capped call options are expected to offset potential dilution to our common stock upon conversion of any 2029 Notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make for any conversion premium if our stock price is greater than $45.37. The upper limit of the capped calls is $68.48 per share. If our stock price exceeds $68.48, there would be unmitigated dilution and/or no offset of any cash payments attributable to the amount by which our stock exceeds the cap price. We will not be required to make any cash payments to option counterparties upon the exercise of capped call options, but we will be entitled to receive from them shares of our common stock or an amount of cash based on the amount by which the market price of our common stock exceeds the strike price of the capped calls.

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 2024 related to a Mission Solutions joint venture.

During 2024, prior to deconsolidation, NuScale received $80 million in proceeds from the issuance of their common stock.

Letters of Credit

As of December 31, 2024, letters of credit totaling $483 million were outstanding under committed lines of credit. As of December 31, 2024, letters of credit totaling $944 million were outstanding under uncommitted lines of credit including letters of credit totaling $344 million for two lump-sum projects in Kuwait that are substantially complete except for the resolution of unapproved change orders and extension of time claims. 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 $16 billion as of December 31, 2024.

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.

Our long-term debt typically features a fixed-rate coupon. The fees we pay on our outstanding letters of credit are also fixed rates based on our credit spread. Therefore, our exposure to floating interest rates is not material. However, in the future, any new debt issuances could be exposed to increasing interest rates or feature floating 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, 2024.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate ICFR that is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP.

Our management, including our CEO and CFO, conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our ICFR as of December 31, 2024 based upon the framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO 2013) and concluded that our ICFR was effective.

Ernst & Young LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an attestation report on the effectiveness of our ICFR. Their report follows this management report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our ICFR during the fourth quarter of 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our ICFR.

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, 2024, 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, 2024, 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 the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes and our report dated February 18, 2025 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.

43

Table of Contents

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.

Item 9B. Other Information

Amended and Restated Revolving Loan and Letter of Credit Facility Agreement

On February 14, 2025, we amended and restated our existing credit facility (the "Prior Facility") by entering into the $2,200,000,000 Fourth Amended and Restated Revolving Loan and Letter of Credit Facility Agreement (the "Amended Credit Facility") dated as of February 14, 2025 among us, BNP Paribas, as Administrative Agent, and other lenders party thereto.

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, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, 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, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, 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, 2024, 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 18, 2025 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 Matter

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.

Fluor Corporation (“we”, “us”, “our” or “the company”) is a holding company that owns many subsidiaries and interests in joint ventures. Acting through these entities, we are one of the larger global professional services firms providing EPC, fabrication and modularization, and project management services. We provide these services to our clients in diverse industries worldwide including advanced technologies and manufacturing, chemicals, infrastructure, life sciences, LNG, mining and metals, nuclear project services, energy transition, and oil and gas production and fuels. We are also a service provider to the U.S. federal government and governments abroad.

We operate our business through 3 principal segments: Urban Solutions, Energy Solutions and Mission Solutions. We also have a smaller Other segment.

Urban Solutions provides EPC and project management services to the advanced technologies and manufacturing, life sciences, mining and metals, infrastructure industries and professional staffing services. This segment also includes our operations and maintenance business.

Energy Solutions provides EPC services for traditional oil and gas markets, including the production and fuels, chemicals, LNG and power markets. The segment serves these industries with comprehensive project life-cycle services, including expansion and modernization projects as well as in sustaining capital work. The segment also supports energy transition markets, including nuclear power and other low-carbon energy sources, asset decarbonization, carbon capture, renewable fuels, waste-to-energy, green chemicals and hydrogen.

Mission Solutions provides high-end technical solutions to the U.S. and other governments. These include, among others, the DOE, the Department of Defense, FEMA and intelligence agencies. The segment also provides services to commercial nuclear clients.

Our other operations include NuScale (prior to deconsolidation) and Stork. AMECO was fully divested in 2023 and we expect to complete the divestiture of Stork in 2025.

In the first quarter of 2024, we completed the sale of Stork's operations in continental Europe. During April 2024, we also entered into a definitive agreement to sell Stork's U.K. operations, which we completed in the first quarter of 2025. The sale did not meet the requirements for discontinued operations as of December 31, 2024 and will not have a material impact on the financial statements. In the third quarter of 2024, we decided to close our Stork operations in Trinidad and Tobago which required us to take a $7 million severance charge. After completing the wind down of the Trinidad and Tobago operations, Stork's divestiture will be complete.

NuScale has developed SMR technology that is NRC approved. Beginning in October 2024, based principally on their equity sales, we no longer met the criteria to consolidate NuScale. As a consequence, their results for all periods prior to October 2024 were consolidated, but we deconsolidated NuScale after that date and recognized a pre-tax gain of $1.6 billion in the fourth quarter of 2024, based on a stock price of $13.15 for our 126 million shares. We recognize the fair value of our investment in NuScale on a mark-to-market basis based upon the prevailing price of their stock on our balance sheet dates, which resulted in an additional pre-tax gain of $604 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. After its deconsolidation, NuScale is included in equity method earnings on our statements of operations.

2. 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 2023 and 2022 have been reclassified to conform to the 2024 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, 2024 through the filing date of the 2024 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

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

our respective ownership interest and amount of influence we have over 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.

Equity Method Investment with Fair Value Option

We elected the fair value option of accounting for our investment in NuScale that would have otherwise been recorded under the equity method of accounting. We recognize the fair value of our investment in NuScale on a mark-to-market basis based upon the prevailing price of their stock on our balance sheet dates. The changes in the fair value of our investment in NuScale are recorded quarterly in the statement of operations.

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 convertible debt, performance-based award units, RSUs, stock options and, prior to their conversion in 2023, our CPS. 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 as well as 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 with respect to cost or receipt, 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 1 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 includes estimates of CFM in those instances where the criteria for recognition have been satisfied. For ongoing operations and maintenance contracts, RUPO includes only contracts with definite terms and substantive termination provisions.

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. Certain variable consideration, such as award and incentive fees, 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;

•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

F-11

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

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 that substantially all incurred cost associated with contract assets as of December 31, 2024 will be billed and collected within 1 year. Contract liabilities represent amounts billed to clients in excess of revenue recognized to date.

Segment Reporting

Our Chief Executive Officer is our CODM. Segment profit is an earnings measure that our CODM utilizes to assess segment performance and allocate resources. Segment profit is calculated as revenue less cost of revenue and earnings attributable to NCI.

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, deferred compensation trust assets and corporate property, plant and equipment.

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 3 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 3 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

NuScale is a research and development operation associated with the licensing and commercialization of SMR technology. Costs incurred by NuScale are expensed as incurred, net of qualifying DOE reimbursements. Beginning in October 2024, we record our investment in NuScale as an equity method investment, but prior to that time we consolidated their research and development costs into our segment results. 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

Goodwill is not amortized but is 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. Interim impairment testing of goodwill 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.

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.

Embedded Derivatives

We attempt to limit foreign currency exposure in most of our contracts by denominating contract revenue in the currencies in which cost is incurred. 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.

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

Generally, our annual grant of stock-based awards to employees are made on a broad basis in the first quarter and to our Board of Directors in the second quarter. Our stock plans provide for grants of performance-based award units, RSUs and nonqualified or incentive stock options. Grants of performance-based units awarded to Section 16 officers, RSUs and stock options can only be settled in company stock and are accounted for as equity awards.

How the outline was chosen. It is the longest chain of item headings that runs forward through both the document and the standard item order: 23 headings are on that chain and 17 further heading-shaped lines are not — the table-of-contents echo of every item, cross-references and exhibit-list mentions. Each entry's length is measured from its heading to the next heading on the chain.
