     From time to time, Fluor® Corporation makes certain comments and disclosures in reports and statements, including this report, or statements made by its officers or directors that are not based on historical facts and which may be forward-looking in nature. Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, a “safe harbor” may be provided to us for certain of these forward-looking statements. We wish to caution readers that forward-looking statements, including disclosures which use words such as the company “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “estimates” and similar statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results of operations to differ materially from expectations.
     Any forward-looking statements that we may make are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those anticipated by us. Any forward-looking statements are subject to the risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results of operations, financial condition, cost reductions, acquisitions, dispositions, financing transactions, operations, expansion, consolidation and other events to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements. As a result, the reader is cautioned not to rely on these forward-looking statements. Due to known and unknown risks, the company’s actual results may differ materially from its expectations or projections. Factors potentially contributing to such differences include, among others:
    Changes in global business, economic (including currency risk), political and social conditions;
 
    The company’s failure to receive anticipated new contract awards and the related impacts on staffing levels and costs;
 
    Customer cancellations of, or scope adjustments to, existing contracts, including our government contracts that may be terminated at any time;
 
    The cyclical nature of many of the markets the company serves and its vulnerability to downturns;
 
    Difficulties or delays incurred in the execution of construction contracts, including performance by our joint venture partners, resulting in cost overruns or liabilities;
 
    Failure to meet timely completion or performance standards could result in higher costs and reduced profits or, in some cases losses on projects;
 
    A failure to obtain favorable results in existing or future litigation or dispute resolution proceedings;
 
    The potential impact of certain tax matters including, but not limited to, those from foreign operations and the ongoing audits by tax authorities and those resulting from the company’s reverse spin-off transaction involving our former coal segment;
 
    Customer delays or defaults in making payments;
 
    Possible limitations of bonding capacity;
 
    Restrictions imposed by credit facilities;
 
    Limitations on cash transfers from subsidiaries may restrict the company’s ability to satisfy financial obligations, or to pay interest or principal when due on outstanding debt;
 
    Competition in the global engineering, procurement and construction industry;
 
    The company’s ability to identify and successfully integrate acquisitions;
 
    The impact of past and future environmental, health and safety regulations; and
 
    Restrictions on possible transactions imposed by Delaware law.
     While most risks affect only future costs or revenues anticipated by the company, some risks may relate to accruals that have already been reflected in results of operations. The company’s failure to receive payments of accrued amounts or if liabilities are incurred in excess of amounts previously recognized, a charge against future earnings could result. In addition, any forward-looking statements should be considered in context with various disclosures made by us about our business including, without limitation, the risk factors more particularly described below in Item 1A. – “Risk Factors.”
     Except as the context otherwise requires, the terms “Fluor” or the “Registrant” as used herein are references to Fluor Corporation and its predecessors and references to the “company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” as used herein shall include Fluor Corporation, its consolidated subsidiaries and divisions.

PART I
Item 1. Business
     Fluor Corporation was incorporated in Delaware on September 11, 2000 prior to a reverse spin-off transaction which separated us from our coal business which now operates as Massey Energy Company. However, through various of our predecessors, we have been in business for more than 100 years. Our principal executive offices are located at One Enterprise Drive, Aliso Viejo, California 92656, telephone number (949) 349-2000. In April 2006, we will be moving our principal executive offices to the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex where our new address will be 6700 Las Colinas Boulevard, Irving, Texas 75039.
     Our common stock currently trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “FLR”.
     Fluor is a holding company which owns the stock of a number of subsidiaries. It is through these subsidiaries that we perform our business. We define our business as providing engineering, procurement, construction and maintenance (“EPCM”) services on a global basis. We serve a diverse set of industries worldwide including oil and gas, the United States government, chemical and petrochemicals, life sciences, manufacturing, power, and transportation infrastructure. We are also a primary service provider to the United States federal government. We perform operations and maintenance activities for major industrial clients.
     We are one of the largest professional services firms, providing services on a global basis in the fields of engineering, procurement, construction and maintenance services. We are aligned into five principal operating segments. The five segments are Oil & Gas, Industrial & Infrastructure, Government, Global Services and Power. Fluor Constructors International, Inc. which is organized and operates separately from our business segments, provides unionized management and construction services in the United States and Canada, both independently and as a subcontractor on projects to our segments. Financial information on segments, as defined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, is set forth on page F-35 of this report on Form 10-K under the caption “Operating Information by Segment,” which is incorporated herein by this reference.
Competitive Strengths
     As a fully-integrated world class provider of engineering, procurement, construction and maintenance services, we believe that our business model allows us the opportunity to bring our clients a compelling business offering that combines excellence in execution, safety, cost containment and experience. In that regard, we believe that our business strategy, which is based on certain of our core competencies, provides us with some significant competitive advantages:
     Excellence in Execution. As an EPCM company with a proven and historic track record of project completion and client satisfaction, we believe that our ability to engineer, construct and manage complex projects often in geographically challenged locations gives us a distinct competitive advantage. We strive to bring our projects in on schedule while meeting or exceeding all client specifications. In an increasingly competitive environment, we are also continually emphasizing cost controls so that our clients achieve not only their performance requirements but also their budgetary needs.
     Financial Strength. We believe that we are among the most financially sound and strong companies in our sector. We strive to maintain a solid financial condition, placing an emphasis on having a strong balance sheet and an investment grade credit rating. Our financial strength also provides us a valuable competitive advantage in terms of access to bonding capacity and letters of credit which are critical to our business. Our financial strength also allows us to fund our strategic initiatives, pay dividends and pursue opportunities for growth. Finally, our strong balance sheet allows us to better handle unanticipated cash flow delays.
     Safety. One of our core values and a fundamental business strategy is our constant pursuit of safety. Both for us and our clients, the maintenance of a safe workplace is a key business driver. In the areas in which we provide our services, we have and continue to deliver excellent safety performance, with our safety record being significantly better than the national industry average. In our estimation, a safe job site decreases risks on a project site, assures a

2


Table of Contents

proper environment for our employees and enhances their morale, reduces project costs and exposures and generally improves client relations. We believe that our safety record is one of our most distinguishing features.
     Global Execution Platform. As the largest U.S.-based publicly traded EPCM company, we have a global footprint with employees in more than 25 countries and in almost 200 offices. By doing so, we are able to build local relationships that allow us better to capitalize on opportunities near these locations while also giving our larger internationally-based customers the comfort that we know and understand the markets where they may elect to use our services. In addition, our global reach allows us to mobilize quickly to those locations where our projects arise.
     Market Diversity. The company serves multiple markets across a broad spectrum of industries. We feel that our market diversity is a key strength of our company by allowing us to mitigate the impact of the cyclicality in the markets we serve. Just as important, our concentrated attention on market diversification allows us to achieve more consistent growth and deliver solid returns. We believe that our continued focus on maintaining a good balance across our entire business portfolio permits us to focus on our more stable business markets while also permitting us to be ready to capitalize on developing or cyclical markets when they are strong. This focus also allows us to better weather any downturns in a specific market by allowing us to emphasize markets which are strong.
     Long Term Client Relationships. While we aggressively work towards pursuing and serving new clients, we also believe that the long term relationships we have built with our major clients, often after decades of work with many of them, allows us to better understand and be more responsive to their requirements. These types of relationships also allow us to better understand many of the risks that we might face with a project or a client, thereby allowing us to better anticipate risks, solve problems and manage our risk. We have worked towards an almost alliance-like relationship with many of these clients and, in doing so, we better understand their business needs.
     Risk Management. We believe that our ability to assess, understand and gauge project risk, especially in difficult locations or circumstances or in a lump sum contracting environment, gives us the ability to selectively enter into markets or accept projects where we feel we can best perform. We have an experienced management team, particularly in risk management and project execution, that allows us to better understand potential risks and, therefore, how to manage them. Our risk management capabilities allow us to better control cost and schedule issues which in turns leads to clients who are pleased with our execution skills and shareholders who are pleased with our financial performance.
General Operations
     As previously noted, our services fall into four broad categories: engineering, procurement, construction and maintenance. We offer these services independently and on a fully integrated basis. Our services can range from basic consulting activities, often at the early stages of a project to complete, sole-responsibility, design build contracts.
    In the engineering area, our expertise ranges from traditional engineering disciplines such as piping, mechanical, electrical, civil, structural and architectural to emerging engineering specialties including simulation, enterprise integration, integrated automation processes and interactive 3-D modeling. As part of these services, we often provide conceptual design services, which allow us to align each project’s function, scope, cost and schedule with the customer’s objectives in order to optimize project success. Also included within these services are such activities as feasibility studies, project development planning, technology evaluation, risk management assessment, global siting, constructability reviews, asset optimization and front-end engineering.
 
    Our procurement team offers traditional procurement services as well as new strategic sourcing and supply processes that are aimed at improving product quality and performance while also reducing project cost and schedule. Our clients benefit from our global sourcing and supply expertise, global purchasing volume, access, technical knowledge, competitive pricing and attention to service. Our activities include sourcing, material control, buying, procurement management, expediting, supplier quality inspection, logistics and field material management.
 
    In the construction area, we mobilize, execute, commission and demobilize projects on a self-perform or subcontracted basis or through construction management as the owner’s agent. Generally, we are

3


Table of Contents

      responsible for the completion of a project, often in difficult locations and under difficult circumstances. Often, we are designated as a program manager, where a client has facilities in multiple locations, complex phases in a single project location, or a large-scale investment in a facility. Depending upon the project, we may be the primary contractor or we may act as a subcontractor to another party.
 
    Under our operations and maintenance contracts, our clients ask us to operate and maintain large, complex facilities for them. We do so through the delivery of total maintenance services, facility management, plant readiness, commissioning, start-up and maintenance technology, small capital projects and turnaround and outage services, on a global basis. Among other things, we can provide key management, staffing and management skills to clients on-site at their facilities. Our operations and maintenance activities can also include routine and outage/turnaround maintenance services, general maintenance and asset management, and restorative, repair, predictive and prevention services.
     We operate in five basic business segments, as described below:
Oil & Gas
     Through our Oil & Gas segment, we have long served the global oil and gas production and processing industries as an integrated service provider offering a full range of design, engineering, procurement, construction and project management services to a broad spectrum of energy-related industries. We serve a number of specific industries which include upstream oil and gas production, downstream refining and integrated petrochemicals. While we perform projects which range greatly in size and scope, we believe that one of our distinguishing features is that we are one of the few companies who has the global strength and reach to perform extremely large projects in difficult locations. As the demand for oil and gas continues to increase, and as the locations where large scale oil and gas projects tend to be located become more challenging geographically, geopolitically or otherwise, we believe that clients will continue to look to us based upon our size, strength and experience. Moreover, as many of our key oil and gas customers continue to recognize that they need to invest and expend resources to meet oil and gas demands, we believe that the company has been and will continue to be extremely well-positioned to capitalize on these growing opportunities.
     In a specific project, our role can vary, but may involve us providing front-end engineering, program management and final design services, construction management services, self-perform construction, or oversight of other contractors and the responsibility for the procurement of labor, materials, equipment and subcontractors. We have the capacity to design and construct new facilities, upgrade and revamp existing facilities, rebuild facilities following fires and explosions, and expand refineries, pipeline and offshore facility installations. We also provide consulting services ranging from feasibility studies to process assessment to project finance structuring and studies.
     In the upstream sector, increasing demand for oil and gas coupled with high oil and gas prices has resulted in the need to develop new opportunities. Our typical projects in the upstream sector revolve around the production, processing and transporting of oil and gas resources which can include such areas as the development of major new fields, as well as liquefied natural gas (LNG) projects and gas-to-liquids (GTL) projects which creates product that can be shipped in tankers to consumers.
     In the downstream sector, demand for refined products continues to increase on a global basis and we continue to pursue significant opportunities. We continue to pursue markets in areas such as oil sands development, as well as in clean fuels, both domestically and internationally, where an increasing number of countries continue to implement stronger environmental policies. As heavier feedstocks become more viable to refine, we employ our strength in technologies to pursue opportunities which facilitate the removal of sulfur from this heavier crude. Our clients continue to modernize and modify existing refineries to increase capacity and satisfy environmental requirements, and we continue to play a strong role in each of these markets. We also have seen that rising oil and gas prices have facilitated the beginning stages of the development of new refineries on a global basis.
     We continue to pursue opportunities in the petrochemicals market, especially those involving the expansion of ethylene production. Particular focus is placed on the Middle Eastern markets near to where the feedstocks are located, and the Chinese market where there is strong need for the petrochemical projects. In that regard, we are

providing construction management and other services for major petrochemical facilities in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, and we have recently completed two major petrochemical facilities in China.
     With our partner Grupo ICA, we maintain a joint venture known as ICA Fluor where we continue to participate in the Mexican oil, gas, power and chemical markets.
Industrial & Infrastructure
     The Industrial & Infrastructure segment provides design, engineering, procurement and construction services to the manufacturing, life sciences, commercial and institutional, mining, microelectronics, telecommunications and transportation sectors. We provide our clients with the resources of architecture, industrial design, engineering, construction, construction management and commissioning (including validation) for new construction and refurbishment of existing facilities. These projects often require state-of-the-art application of our client’s process and intellectual knowledge. We focus on providing our clients with solutions to reduce and contain costs, and to compress delivery schedules. By doing so, our clients are able to begin to use their facilities on a quicker, more cost efficient basis.
     In Transportation and Infrastructure, we continue to promote our business model of large complex projects. Here again, we provide a broad range of services including consulting, design, planning, structuring, engineering and construction management domestically and internationally. Our service offerings include roads, highways, bridges, rail, transport and airports. As demand for these services increases while government budgets become increasingly constrained, many of our projects involve the use of so-called public/private partnerships. Under these arrangements, the company is able to develop and finance deals in concert with public entities for projects such as toll roads which would not have otherwise been commenced had only public funding been available.
     Mining has been a particularly strong area of growth. For many years, mining had not received adequate investment; as commodity prices and business and consumer demand has increased, mining opportunities have similarly increased. The company has traditionally provided the full range of EPCM services to the mining industry. We believe we are one of the few companies who has the size and experience to pursue large scale mining projects in difficult locations.
     In Manufacturing, we provide engineering, design, procurement, consulting, construction and construction management services to a wide variety of industries. We have seen particular growth in the consumer electronics arena in areas such as glass manufacturing where a facility can manufacture glass for flat panel monitors, notebook computers and flat screen televisions. Similarly, we have seen opportunities for chip fabrication and microelectronic facilities.
     Life Sciences, encompassing primarily the pharmaceuticals and biotechnology industries, while not as strong in 2005 as in past years, remains a key focus of the Industrial & Infrastructure segment. In this area, we provide design, engineering, procurement, construction and construction management services. We also specialize in providing validation and commissioning services where we not only bring new facilities into production but we also keep existing facilities operating. As a fully integrated provider of services to Life Sciences customers, we can provide all the necessary tools to successfully create and complete projects. The ability to do this on a large scale basis, especially in a business where time to market is critical, allows us to better serve our customers and is a key competitive advantage.
     In Telecommunications, we provide design, engineering, procurement and construction management services. Domestically, business remains somewhat modest; however, in 2005, we saw growth in European markets.
Government
     The Government segment is a leading provider of project management services to the United States government, with particular focus on the Department of Energy, the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Defense and the Department of State. Because the U.S. government is the single largest purchaser of outsourced services in the world with a relatively stable year to year budget, we have recently focused our attention on this

5


Table of Contents

segment in part because we believe we can leverage the skill sets we already possess while at the same time grow our service offering in an annuity-type work environment that can be less cyclical in nature.
     For the Department of Energy, we primarily provide services in the area of environmental restoration, environmental management, engineering, construction, site operations and maintenance services primarily at two major project sites in Hanford, Washington and Fernald, Ohio. We have been very successful in addressing the myriad of environmental and other difficult issues associated with these sites and, due in part to our successes, the Fernald site is on target to reach closure in 2006. We have taken the skills we have refined at these sites and are pursing other domestic opportunities where we foresee growth at other Department of Energy locations and with the National Nuclear Security Administration, and internationally with respect to nuclear decommissioning and other energy activities in the United Kingdom.
     We also provide engineering and construction services, as well as contingency operations support to the Department of Defense. We primarily support military logistical and infrastructure needs around the world, as evidenced by continuing work for the U.S. Army Central Command to upgrade military facilities and water and electrical infrastructure in Iraq. Through our subsidiary, Del-Jen, Inc., and as a result of its acquisition of Trend Western, Inc., we are a leading provider of outsourced services to the federal government. Del-Jen provides operations and maintenance services at military bases and education and training services to the Department of Labor, particularly through its Job Corps programs.
     The company is also providing significant support to the Department of Homeland Security especially with respect to supporting the U.S. government’s rapid response capabilities to address security issues and disaster relief, the latter primarily through our long-standing relationship with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (“FEMA”).
     Through our J. A. Jones International subsidiary, we are one of the largest providers for the Department of State’s embassy and consulate market. We are assessing our continuing interests in this market.
Global Services
     The Global Services segment brings together a variety of customized service capabilities that complement and support our core businesses as well as providing an independent source of revenue. Service areas within this segment include operations and maintenance activities, construction and maintenance site services and industrial fleet outsourcing, plant turnaround services, temporary staffing, materials and subcontract procurement, and construction-related support. These markets are largely driven by the growing demand from clients to outsource non-core services.
     Global Services’ activities in the operations and maintenance markets include providing facility management, maintenance, operations and asset management services to the oil and gas, chemicals and life sciences, fossil and nuclear power, and manufacturing industries. We are a leading supplier of integrated facility management services, including on-site maintenance and operation support services. We have recently expanded our service offerings to the international market.
     Included within Global Services is Plant Performance Services, which we also refer to as P2SSM. P2S is one of the largest specialty, rapid response service providers in the United States, performing small capital construction projects, specialty welding, electrical and instrumentation services, fabrication, mechanical and turnaround services.
     We also provide Site ServicesSM and Fleet OutsourcingSM through our American Equipment Company, Inc. (“AMECO”) subsidiary. AMECO provides integrated construction equipment, tool and fleet outsourcing solutions on a global basis for construction projects and plant sites to both Fluor and third party clients. With locations throughout North and South America, AMECO supports some of the largest construction projects and plant locations in the world.
     We serve the temporary staffing market through our TRS® Staffing Solutions (“TRS”) subsidiary. TRS is a global enterprise of staffing specialists that provide clients with recruiting and placement of temporary, contract and direct hire technical professionals to both Fluor and third party clients.

Table of Contents

     Our construction and procurement unit provides global resources, processes and technology, market knowledge and experience, and volume-leveraged pricing to the company and third parties. Through a combination of industry-leading technologies, our global network and expertise, and our large spend on goods and services, we are able to bring strong pricing, delivery and performance solutions to the company and our clients.
Power
     In the Power segment, we design and construct new power generation facilities. We perform a full range of services, including engineering, procurement, construction, start-up, and maintenance. We also provide the design and installation of emissions equipment to comply with environmental guidelines. In addition, we have been successfully increasing the in-plant services we provide to the power market where, for example, we can assist clients in operational improvements, predictive and preventative maintenance and turbine fleet management. Previously, we performed the vast majority of our power work through our joint venture with Duke Energy in a venture known as Duke Fluor Daniel. We are now positioned to pursue this market, which is showing signs of resurgence, with our own resources. As the power market has cycled down over the past year from historical highs, we elected to discontinue this joint venture. We have placed strong focus on the coal-fired power generation facilities, where due to the lower cost of coal in comparison to other fuels, we have already seen and expect to continue to see growth opportunities. We also see a robust market for the clean up of existing power facilities where there will likely be large capital expenditures needed in order to satisfy environmental requirements.

     For purposes of the preceding tables, we include our operations and maintenance activities when we compute our backlog for our Global Services segment; however, the equipment, temporary staffing and global sourcing and procurement operations of our Global Services segment do not report backlog due to the quick turnaround between the receipt of new awards and the recognition of revenue. With respect to backlog in our Government segment, if a contract covers multiple years, we only include the amounts for which Congressional funding has been approved and then only for that portion of the work to be completed in the next twelve months. For projects related to

Table of Contents

unconsolidated or partially consolidated joint ventures, we include only percentage membership of each joint venture’s backlog.
     We expect to perform 46 percent of our backlog in 2006. The dollar amount of the backlog is not necessarily indicative of our future earnings related to the performance of such work. Although backlog represents only business which is considered to be firm, there can be no assurance that cancellations or scope adjustments will not occur. Due to additional factors outside of our control, such as changes in project schedules, we cannot predict with certainty the portion of our December 31, 2005 backlog estimated to be performed subsequent to 2006.
     For additional information with respect to our backlog, please refer to Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation, below.
Types of Contracts
     While the basic terms and conditions of the contracts that we perform may vary considerably, generally we perform our work under two groups of contracts: cost reimbursable, and guaranteed maximum and fixed price contracts. As of December 31, 2005, the following table breaks down the percentage and amount of revenue associated with these types of contracts for our existing backlog:
                 
    2005 Backlog
    (in millions)
Cost Reimbursable
    68 %   $ 10,139  
Guaranteed Maximum and Fixed Price
    32 %   $ 4,788  
     Under cost reimbursable contracts, the client reimburses our costs in developing a project and pays us a pre-determined fee or a fee based upon a percentage of the costs incurred in completing the project. Our profit may be in the form of a fee, a simple mark-up applied to labor costs incurred in the contract, or a combination of the two. The fee element may also vary. The fee may be an incentive fee based upon achieving certain performance factors, milestones or targets; it may be a fixed amount in the contract; or it may be based upon a percentage of the costs incurred.
     Our Government segment, as a prime contractor or a major subcontractor for a number of United States government programs, generally performs its services under cost reimbursable contracts although subject to applicable statutes and regulations. In many cases, these contracts include incentive-fee arrangements. The programs in question often take many years to complete and may be implemented by the award of many different contracts. Despite the fact that these programs are generally awarded on a multi-year basis, the funding for the programs is generally approved on an annual basis by Congress. The government is under no obligation to maintain funding at any specific level, or funds for a program may even be eliminated thereby significantly curtailing or stopping a program.
     Some of our government contracts are known as Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity agreements. Under these arrangements, we work closely with the government to define the scope and amount of work required based upon an estimate of the maximum amount that the government desires to spend. While the scope is often not initially fully defined or requires any specific amount of work, once the project scope is determined, additional work may be awarded to us without the need for further competitive bidding.
     Guaranteed maximum price contracts, or GMAX contracts, are performed in a manner similar to cost reimbursable contracts except that the total fee plus the total cost cannot exceed an agreed upon guaranteed maximum price. We can be responsible for some or all of the total cost of the project if the cost exceeds the guaranteed maximum price. Where the total cost is less than the negotiated guaranteed maximum price, we will receive the benefit of the cost savings based upon a negotiated agreement with the client.
     Fixed price contacts include both negotiated fixed price contracts and lump sum contracts. Under negotiated fixed price contracts, we are selected as contractor first, and then we negotiate price with the client. These types of contracts generally occur where we commence work before a final price is agreed upon. Under lump sum contracts, we bid on a contract based upon specifications provided by the client against competitors, agreeing to develop a

8

project at a fixed price. Another type of fixed price contract is a so-called unit price contract under which we are paid a set amount for every “unit” of work performed. In some fixed price contracts, we can benefit from some of the cost savings depending upon whether the client is willing to bear some of the risk if the actual cost exceeds the contract award. As a result, if we perform well, we can benefit from cost savings; however, if the project does not proceed as originally planned, we cannot recover for cost overruns except in certain limited situations.
Competition
     We are one of the world’s larger providers of engineering, procurement and construction services. The markets served by our business are highly competitive and for the most part require substantial resources, particularly highly skilled and experienced technical personnel. A large number of companies are competing in the markets served by the business, including U.S.-based companies such as the Bechtel Group, Inc., Jacobs Engineering Group, Halliburton’s Kellogg Brown & Root, Chicago Bridge and Iron Company N.V., CH2M Hill Companies Limited, Parsons Engineering Group, the Shaw Group and Washington Group International, and international companies such as Foster-Wheeler Ltd., Technip-Coflexip and AMEC plc.
     In the engineering and construction arena, our competition is primarily centered on performance and the ability to provide the design, engineering, planning, management and project execution skills required to complete complex projects in a safe, timely and cost-efficient manner. Our engineering, procurement and construction business derives its competitive strength from our diversity, reputation for quality, technology, cost-effectiveness, worldwide procurement capability, project management expertise, geographic coverage and ability to meet client requirements by performing construction on either a union or an open shop basis, ability to execute projects of varying sizes, strong safety record and lengthy experience with a wide range of services and technologies.
     The various markets served by the Global Services segment, while containing some similarities, tend also to have discrete issues particularly impacting that unit. Each of the markets we serve has a large number of companies competing in its markets. In the equipment sector, which operates in numerous markets, the equipment industry is highly fragmented and very competitive, with most competitors operating in specific geographic areas. The competition for larger capital project services is more narrow and limited to only those capable of providing comprehensive equipment, tool and management services. Temporary staffing is a highly fragmented market with over 1,000 companies competing nationally. The key competitive factors in this business line are price, service, quality, breadth of service, and the ability to identify and retain qualified personnel and geographical coverage. The barriers to entry in operations and maintenance are both financially and logistically low with the result that the industry is highly fragmented with no single company being dominant. Competition is generally driven by reputation, price and the capacity to perform.
     Key competitive factors in our Government segment are primarily centered on performance and the ability to provide the design, engineering, planning, management and project execution skills required to complete complex projects in a safe, timely and cost-efficient manner.
Significant Customers
     For 2005, 2004 and 2003, revenues earned directly or indirectly from agencies of the United States Federal Government accounted for 21%, 24% and 19%, respectively, of our total revenues. However, we are not dependent on any single federal agency or upon any other single customer on an on-going basis, and the loss of any single customer would not have a material adverse effect on our business. Except for the United States Federal Government, no other single customer accounted for over 10% of our revenues in either of the last two years.
Raw Materials
     The principal raw materials we use in our business include structural steel, metal plate and concrete. These and the other raw materials and the components we use and which are necessary for the conduct of our business are generally available from numerous sources. We do not foresee any unavailability of raw materials and components that would have a material adverse effect on our business in the near term. However, the price and availability of these raw materials and components may vary significantly from year to year due to various factors including customer demand, producer capacity, market conditions and material shortages and costs.

Research and Development
     While we engage in research and development efforts in the development of new products and services, during the past three fiscal years, we have not incurred costs for company-sponsored research and development activities which would be material, special or unusual in any of our business segments.
Patents
     We hold patents and licenses for certain items that we use in our operations. However, none is so essential that its loss would materially affect our business.
Environmental, Safety and Health Matters
     We believe, based upon present information available to us, that our accruals with respect to future environmental costs are adequate and any future costs will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. Some factors, however could result in additional expenditures or the provision of additional accruals in expectation of such expenditures. These include the imposition of more stringent requirements under environmental laws or regulations, new developments or changes regarding site cleanup costs or the allocation of such costs among potentially responsible parties, or a determination that we are potentially responsible for the release of hazardous substances at sites other than those currently identified.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
We bear the risk of cost overruns in approximately 32% of the dollar-value of our contracts. We may experience reduced profits or, in some cases, losses under these contracts if costs increase above our estimates.
     We conduct our business under various types of contractual arrangements. In terms of dollar-value, the majority of our contracts allocate the risk of cost overruns to our client by requiring our client to reimburse us for our costs. Approximately 32% of the dollar-value of our contracts, however, are guaranteed maximum price or fixed price contracts, where we bear a significant portion of the risk for cost overruns. Under these fixed price contracts, contract prices are established in part on cost and scheduling estimates which are based on a number of assumptions, including assumptions about future economic conditions, prices and availability of labor, equipment and materials, and other exigencies. If these estimates prove inaccurate, or circumstances change such as unanticipated technical problems, difficulties in obtaining permits or approvals, changes in local laws or labor conditions, weather delays, cost of raw materials, our suppliers’ or subcontractors’ inability to perform, cost overruns may occur, and we could experience reduced profits or, in some cases, a loss for that project. From time to time, we may also assume a project’s technical risk, which means that we may have to satisfy certain technical requirements of a project despite the fact that at the time of project award, we may not have previously produced the system or product in question.
Our backlog is subject to unexpected adjustments and cancellations and is, therefore, an uncertain indicator of our future earnings.
     As of December 31, 2005, our backlog was approximately $14.9 billion. We cannot guarantee that the revenues projected in our backlog will be realized or, if realized, will result in profits. Projects may remain in our backlog for an extended period of time. In addition, project cancellations or scope adjustments may occur, from time to time, with respect to contracts reflected in our backlog. Backlog reductions can adversely affect the revenue and profit we actually receive from contracts reflected in our backlog. Future project cancellations and scope adjustments could further reduce the dollar amount of our backlog and the revenues and profits that we actually receive. Finally, poor project or contract performance could also impact our profits.
If we guarantee the timely completion or performance standards of a project, we could incur additional costs to cover our guarantee obligations.
     In some instances and in many of our fixed price contracts, we guarantee a customer that we will complete a project by a scheduled date. We sometimes provide that the project, when completed, will also achieve certain performance standards. If we subsequently fail to complete the project as scheduled, or if the project subsequently fails to meet guaranteed performance standards, we may be held responsible for cost impacts to the client resulting from any delay or the costs to cause the project to achieve the performance standards, generally in the form of contractually agreed-upon liquidated damages. To the extent that these events occur, the total costs of the project would exceed our original estimates and we could experience reduced profits or, in some cases, a loss for that project.
The nature of our engineering and construction business exposes us to potential liability claims and contract disputes which may reduce our profits.
     We engage in engineering and construction activities for large facilities where design, construction or systems failures can result in substantial injury or damage to third parties. We have been and may in future be named as a defendant in legal proceedings where parties may make a claim for damages or other remedies with respect to our projects or other matters. These claims generally arise in the normal course of our business. When it is determined that we have liability, we may not be covered by insurance or, if covered, the dollar amount of these liabilities may exceed our policy limits. Our professional liability coverage is on a “claims-made” basis covering only claims actually made during the policy period currently in effect. In addition, even where insurance is maintained for such exposures, the policies have deductibles resulting in our assuming exposure for a layer of coverage with respect to any such claims. Any liability not covered by our insurance, in excess of our insurance limits or, if covered by insurance but subject to a high deductible, could result in a significant loss for us, which claims may reduce our profits and cash available for operations.

We have seen an increase in our claims against project owners for payment and our failure to recover adequately on these and future claims could have a material effect on us.
     We have over the past few years seen an increase in the volume and the amount of claims brought by us against project owners for additional costs exceeding the contract price or for amounts not included in the original contract price. These types of claims occur due to matters such as owner-caused delays or changes from the initial project scope, which result in additional costs, both direct and indirect. Often, these claims can be the subject of lengthy arbitration or litigation proceedings, and it is often difficult to accurately predict when these claims will be fully resolved. When these types of events occur and unresolved claims are pending, we have used significant working capital in projects to cover cost overruns pending the resolution of the relevant claims. A failure to promptly recover on these types of claims could have a material adverse impact on our liquidity and financial condition.
We are vulnerable to the cyclical nature of the markets we serve.
     The demand for our services and products is dependent upon the existence of projects with engineering, procurement, construction and management needs. Although downturns can impact our entire business, our telecommunications and power markets exemplify businesses that are cyclical in nature and have recently been affected by a decrease in worldwide demand for these projects. Industries such as these and many of the others we serve have historically been and will continue to be vulnerable to general downturns and are cyclical in nature. As a result, our past results have varied considerably and may continue to vary depending upon the demand for future projects in these industries.
Our continued success requires us to hire and retain qualified personnel.
     Over the past year, the demand for employees who engage and are experienced in the services we perform has grown as our customers have increased their capital expenditures and the use of our services. The success of our business is dependent upon being able to attract and retain personnel, including executive, management and craft employees, who have the necessary and required experience and expertise. In addition, we are moving our corporate headquarters to Irving, Texas from Southern California in the spring. While we have asked a large number of employees to relocate to Irving, we may suffer some employee losses for those employees who elect not to move which could in turn have an impact on our public company reporting and other corporate activities. If we cannot find and keep the employees necessary to execute our contracts or to perform necessary corporate activities, it could have a material adverse impact on our business or financial results.
Our use of the percentage-of-completion method of accounting could result in a reduction or reversal of previously recorded revenues or profits.
     Under our accounting procedures, we measure and recognize a large portion of our profits and revenues under the percentage of completion accounting methodology. This methodology allows us to recognize revenues and profits ratably over the life of a contract by comparing the amount of the costs incurred to date against the total amount of costs expected to be incurred. The effect of revisions to revenues and estimated costs is recorded when the amounts are known and can be reasonably estimated, and these revisions can occur at any time and could be material. On a historical basis, we believe that we have made reasonably reliable estimates of the progress towards completion on our long term contracts. However, given the uncertainties associated with these types of contracts, it is possible for actual costs to vary from estimates previously made, which may result in reductions or reversals of previously recorded revenues and profits.
We have international operations that are subject to foreign economic and political uncertainties. Unexpected and adverse changes in the foreign countries in which we operate could result in project disruptions, increased costs and potential losses.
     Our business is subject to fluctuations in demand and to changing domestic and international economic and political conditions which are beyond our control. As of December 31, 2005, approximately 65% of our projected backlog consisted of engineering and construction revenues to be derived from facilities to be constructed in other

12


Table of Contents

countries; we expect that a significant portion of our revenues and profits will continue to come from international projects for the foreseeable future.
     Operating in the international marketplace exposes us to a number of risks including:
    abrupt changes in foreign government policies and regulations,
 
    embargoes,
 
    trade restrictions;
 
    tax increases;
 
    United States government policies, and
 
    international hostilities.
     The lack of a well-developed legal system in some of these countries may make it difficult to enforce our contractual rights. We also face significant risks due to civil strife, acts of war, terrorism and insurrection. Our level of exposure to these risks will vary with respect to each project, depending on the particular stage of each such project. For example, our risk exposure with respect to a project in an early development stage will generally be less than our risk exposure with respect to a project in the middle of construction. To the extent that our international business is affected by unexpected and adverse foreign economic and political conditions, we may experience project disruptions and losses. Project disruptions and losses could significantly reduce our revenues and profits.
Our government contracts may be terminated at any time. Also, if we do not comply with restrictions and regulations imposed by the government, our government contracts may be terminated and we may be unable to enter into future government contracts. The termination of our government contracts could significantly reduce our expected revenues.
     We enter into significant government contracts, from time to time, such as those that we have with the U.S. Department of Energy at Fernald and Hanford. Government contracts are subject to various uncertainties, restrictions and regulations, including oversight audits by government representatives and profit and cost controls. Government contracts are also exposed to uncertainties associated with Congressional funding. The government is under no obligation to maintain funding at any specific level and funds for a program may even be eliminated.
     In addition, government contracts are subject to specific procurement regulations and a variety of other socio-economic requirements. For example, we must comply with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (“FAR”), the Truth in Negotiations Act, the Cost Accounting Standards (“CAS”), the Service Contract Act and Department of Defense security regulations. We must also comply with various other government regulations and requirements as well as various statutes related to employment practices, environmental protection, recordkeeping and accounting. If we fail to comply with any of these regulations, requirements or statutes, our existing government contracts could be terminated, and we could be temporarily suspended or even debarred from government contracting or subcontracting.
     We also run the risk of the impact of government audits, investigations and proceedings, and so-called “qui tam” actions brought by individuals or the government under the Federal False Claims Act that, if an unfavorable result occurs, could impact our profits and financial condition, as well as our ability to obtain future government work. For example, government agencies such as the U.S. Defense Contract Audit Agency (the “DCAA”) routinely review and audit government contractors. If these agencies determine that a rule or regulation has been violated, a variety of penalties can be imposed including criminal and civil penalties all of which would harm our reputation with the government or even debar us from future government activities. The DCAA has the ability to review how we have accounted for costs under the FAR and CAS, and if they believe that we have engaged in inappropriate accounting or other activities, payments to us may be disallowed.

Table of Contents

     If one or more of our government contracts are terminated for any reason including for convenience, if we are suspended from government contract work, or if payment of our costs is disallowed, we could suffer a significant reduction in expected revenues and profits.
Some of our projects and new business may be located in environments where anti-corruption initiatives are not followed.
     We often perform our projects in countries with less robust legal systems or which are in the developmental stage. Transparency International, an international organization which reviews potential governmental and institutional corruption, has rated many of the countries poorly in terms of their acceptance of corruption and their enforcement of anti-corruption laws and rules. It is the policy of the company to comply with all applicable anti-bribery laws such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA”) of the United States and the applicable laws of all foreign countries in which we operate. Under the FCPA, among other things, U.S.-based companies such as Fluor and our agents or other intermediaries are precluded from offering anything of value to foreign officials or governments with the intent of obtaining or retaining business, or to otherwise obtain an improper advantage. We train our staff concerning FCPA issues, and we also inform our partners, subcontractors, agents and others who work for us or on our behalf that they must comply with FCPA requirements. We also have procedures and controls in place to monitor internal and external compliance. If we are found to be liable for FCPA violations (either due to our own acts or our inadvertence, or due to the acts or inadvertence of others), we could suffer from criminal or civil penalties or other sanctions which could have a material adverse effect on our business.
We work in international locations where there are high security risks, which could result in harm to our employees or unanticipated costs.
     Some of our services are performed in high risk locations, such as Iraq, where the country or location is suffering from political, social or economic issues, or war or civil unrest. In those locations where we have employees or operations, we may incur substantial costs such as security costs to maintain the safety of our personnel. Moreover, despite these activities, in these locations, we cannot guarantee the safety of our personnel.
We continue to expand our business in areas where bonding is required, but bonding capacity is limited.
     We continue to expand our business in areas where the underlying contract must be bonded, especially in the transportation infrastructure arena. Because of the overall lack of worldwide bonding capacity, we can find it difficult to find sureties who will provide the contract-required bonding. In addition, these contracts are often very large and extremely complex, which often necessitates the use of a joint venture, often with a competitor, to bid on and perform these types of contracts, especially since it may be easier to jointly pursue the necessary bonding. However, entering into these types of joint ventures or partnerships exposes us to the credit and performance risks of third parties, many of whom are not as financially strong as we are. If our joint venturers or partners fail to perform, we could suffer negative results.
It can be very difficult or expensive to obtain the insurance we need for our business operations.
     As part of business operations, we maintain insurance both as a corporate risk management strategy and in order to satisfy the requirements of many of our contracts. Insurance products have become increasingly expensive and sometimes very difficult to obtain. Although we have in the past been generally able to cover our insurance needs, there can be no assurances that we can secure all necessary or appropriate insurance in the future.
Our international operations expose us to foreign currency fluctuations that could increase our U.S. dollar costs or reduce our U.S. dollar revenues.
     Because our functional currency is the U.S. dollar, we generally try to denominate our contracts in United States dollars. However, from time to time our contracts are denominated in foreign currencies, which results in our foreign operations facing the additional risk of fluctuating currency values and exchange rates, hard currency shortages and controls on currency exchange. Changes in the value of foreign currencies could increase our U.S. dollar costs for, or reduce our U.S. dollar revenues from, our foreign operations. Any increased costs or reduced revenues as a result of foreign currency fluctuations could affect our profits.

Intense competition in the engineering and construction industry could reduce our market share and profits.
     We serve markets that are highly competitive and in which a large number of multinational companies compete, such as the Bechtel Group, Inc., Jacobs Engineering Group, Halliburton’s Kellogg Brown & Root, Chicago Bridge and Iron Company N.V., CH2M Hill Companies Limited, Parsons Engineering Group, the Shaw Group and Washington Group International, and international companies such as Foster-Wheeler Ltd., Technip-Coflexip and AMEC plc. In particular, the engineering and construction markets are highly competitive and require substantial resources and capital investment in equipment, technology and skilled personnel. Competition also places downward pressure on our contract prices and profit margins. Intense competition is expected to continue in these markets, presenting us with significant challenges in our ability to maintain strong growth rates and acceptable profit margins. If we are unable to meet these competitive challenges, we could lose market share to our competitors and experience an overall reduction in our profits.
The success of our joint ventures depend on the satisfactory performance by our joint venture partners of their joint venture obligations. The failure of our joint venture partners to perform their joint venture obligations could impose on us additional financial and performance obligations that could result in reduced profits or, in some cases, significant losses for us with respect to the joint venture.
     We enter into various joint ventures as part of our engineering, procurement and construction businesses, such as ICA Fluor and project specific joint ventures. The success of these and other joint ventures depend, in large part, on the satisfactory performance of our joint venture partners of its joint venture obligations. If our joint venture partners fail to satisfactorily perform their joint venture obligations as a result of financial or other difficulties, the joint venture may be unable to adequately perform or deliver its contracted services. Under these circumstances, we may be required to make additional investments and provide additional services to ensure the adequate performance and delivery of the contracted services. These additional obligations could result in reduced profits or, in some cases, significant losses for us with respect to the joint venture.
We may have additional tax liabilities.
     We are subject to income taxes in the United States and numerous foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required in determining our worldwide provision for income taxes. In the ordinary course of our business, there are many transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. We are regularly under audit by tax authorities. Although we believe that our tax estimates are reasonable, the final outcome of tax audits and related litigation could be materially different than that which is reflected in our financial statements.
     In addition, prior to the reverse spin-off involving our former coal segment, our predecessor-in-interest received a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service that the reverse spin-off qualified as a tax-free spin-off under Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The ruling was granted based upon certain representations made by our predecessor-in-interest. While we are not aware of any facts or circumstances that would cause those representations to be incorrect or incomplete, if those representations were inaccurate, it is possible that the ruling would no longer be valid. In such event, we could incur a significant corporate tax liability that could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.
Past and future environmental, safety and health regulations could impose significant additional costs on us that reduce our profits.
     We are subject to numerous environmental laws and health and safety regulations. Our projects can involve the handling of hazardous and other highly regulated materials which, if improperly handled or disposed of, could subject us to civil and criminal liabilities. It is impossible to reliably predict the full nature and effect of judicial, legislative or regulatory developments relating to health and safety regulations and environmental protection regulations applicable to our operations. The applicable regulations, as well as the technology and length of time available to comply with those regulations, continue to develop and change. In addition, past activities could also have a material impact on us. For example, when we sold our mining business formerly conducted through St. Joe Minerals Corporation, we retained responsibility for certain non-lead related environmental liabilities, but only to the extent that such liabilities were not covered by St. Joe’s comprehensive general liability insurance. While we are

15


Table of Contents

not currently aware of any material exposure arising from our former St. Joe’s business or otherwise, the costs of complying with rulings and regulations or satisfying any environmental remediation requirements for which we are found responsible could be substantial and could reduce our profits.
If we experience delays and/or defaults in customer payments, we could suffer liquidity problems or we could be unable to recover all expenditures.
     Because of the nature of our contracts, at times we commit resources to projects prior to receiving payments from the customer in amounts sufficient to cover expenditures on client projects as they are incurred. Delays in customer payments may require us to make a working capital investment. If a customer defaults in making its payments on a project in which we have devoted significant resources, it could have a material negative effect on our results of operations.
Our recent and any future acquisitions may not be successful.
     We expect to continue to pursue selective acquisitions of businesses. We cannot assure you that we will be able to locate suitable acquisitions or that we will be able to consummate any such transactions on terms and conditions acceptable to us, or that such transactions will be successful. Acquisitions may bring us into businesses we have not previously conducted and expose us to additional business risks that are different than those we have traditionally experienced. We also may encounter difficulties diligencing or integrating acquisitions and successfully managing the growth we expect to experience from these acquisitions.
In the event we make acquisitions using our stock as consideration, we could dilute share ownership.
     As we have announced, we intend to grow our business not only organically but also potentially through acquisitions. One method of paying for acquisitions or to otherwise fund our corporate initiatives is through the issuance of additional equity securities. If we do issue additional equity securities; this could have the effect of diluting our earnings per share and shareholders’ percentage ownership.
Delaware law and our charter documents may impede or discourage a takeover or change of control.
     We are a Delaware corporation. Various anti-takeover provisions under Delaware law impose impediments on the ability of others to acquire control of us, even if a change of control would be beneficial to our stockholders. In addition, certain provisions of our bylaws may impede or discourage a takeover. For example:
    our Board of Directors is divided into three classes serving staggered three year terms;
 
    vacancies on the board can only be filled by other directors;
 
    there are various restrictions on the ability of a shareholder to nominate a director for election; and
 
    our Board of Directors can authorize the issuance of preference shares.
     These types of provisions could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of us, even if the acquisition would be beneficial to our shareholders. Accordingly, shareholders may be limited in the ability to obtain a premium for their shares.
As a holding company, we are dependent on our subsidiaries for cash distributions to fund debt payments.
     Because we are a holding company, we have no true operations or significant assets other than the stock we own of our subsidiaries. We depend on dividends, loans and other distributions from these subsidiaries for us to be able to pay our debt and other financial obligations. Contractual limitations and legal regulations may restrict the ability of our subsidiaries to make such distributions or loans to us or, if made, may be insufficient to cover our financial obligations, or to pay interest or principal when due on our debt.

Table of Contents

We are dependent upon third parties to complete many of our contracts.
     Much of the work performed under our contracts is actually performed by third-party subcontractors we hire. We also rely on third-party equipment manufacturers or suppliers to provide much of the equipment used for projects. If we are unable to hire qualified subcontractors or find qualified equipment manufacturers or suppliers, our ability to successfully complete a project could be impaired. If the amount we are required to pay for subcontractors or equipment and supplies exceeds what we have estimated, especially in a lump sum or a fixed-price type contract, we may suffer losses on these contracts. If a supplier, manufacturer or subcontractor fails to provide supplies, equipment or services as required under a negotiated contract for any reason, we may be required to source these supplies, equipment or services on a delayed basis or at a higher price than anticipated which could impact contract profitability.
We maintain a workforce based upon current and anticipated workloads. If we do not receive future contract awards or if these awards are delayed, significant costs may result.
     Our estimates of future performance depend on, among other matters, whether and when we will receive certain new contract awards. While our estimates are based upon our good faith judgment, these estimates can be unreliable and may frequently change based on newly available information. In the case of large-scale domestic and international projects where timing is often uncertain, it is particularly difficult to predict whether and when we will receive a contract award. The uncertainty of contract award timing can present difficulties in matching our workforce size with our contract needs. If an expected contract award is delayed or not received, we could incur costs resulting from reductions in staff or redundancy of facilities that would have the effect of reducing our profits.
Systems and information technology interruption could adversely impact our ability to operate.
     As a global company, we are heavily reliant on computer, information and communications technology and related systems in order to properly operate. From time to time, we experience occasional system interruptions and delays. If we are unable to continually add software and hardware, effectively upgrade our systems and network infrastructure and take other steps to improve the efficiency of and protect our systems, systems operation could be interrupted or delayed. In addition, our computer and communications systems and operations could be damaged or interrupted by natural disasters, power loss, telecommunications failures, acts of war or terrorism, acts of God, computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins and similar events or disruptions. Any of these or other events could cause system interruption, delays and loss of critical data, could delay or prevent operations, and could adversely affect our operating results.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings
     Fluor and its subsidiaries, as part of their normal business activities, are parties to a number of legal proceedings and other matters in various stages of development. While we cannot predict the outcome of these proceedings, in our opinion and based on reports of counsel, any liability arising from these matters individually and in the aggregate will not have a material adverse effect upon the consolidated financial position, or the results of operations of the company, after giving effect to provisions already recorded.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Introduction
     The following discussion and analysis is provided to increase understanding of, and should be read in conjunction with, the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes. For purposes of reviewing this document, “operating profit” is calculated as revenues less cost of revenues excluding: corporate administrative and general expense; interest expense; interest income; domestic and foreign income taxes; other non-operating income and expense items; earnings or loss from discontinued operations; and the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle.
Results of Operations
Summary of Overall Company Results
     During 2005, revenue and earnings from continuing operations increased by 40 percent and 22 percent, respectively, compared with 2004. All of the company’s business segments had higher revenue primarily due to increased project execution activity resulting from strong new award levels over the last three years. The company believes that the global oil and gas industry is in a long-term cycle of investment that will continue to develop over the next several years. The Oil & Gas and Global Services segments are benefiting from this trend through improved revenue and operating profit. Also contributing to results in the Oil & Gas segment was the completion of a major refinery upgrader project in Venezuela and final settlement of all outstanding claims with the owner’s consortium on the project. This performance was, however, partially offset by an operating loss in the Industrial & Infrastructure segment primarily due to settlements related to projects in the dispute resolution process and cost overruns on several projects. Revenue improved in the Government segment due to higher activity in Iraq and for support of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (“FEMA”) in hurricane relief efforts; however, operating profit was essentially flat primarily due to cost overruns and recognized losses on certain embassy projects for the Department of State.
     The Industrial & Infrastructure segment recognized losses in 2005 on various project-related settlements, including two resort hotel projects in the Caribbean and two life sciences projects. In addition, a toll road project being executed by a joint venture in which the company has 50 percent participation, recognized losses in 2005 due to further increases in estimated costs. A loss was also recognized in 2004 on this project. The toll road project has experienced increased costs associated with scope changes requested by the client and other delay related costs. All of these projects were bid under fixed price or guaranteed maximum commercial terms where the risk of certain variances in cost estimates remain with the company.
     During 2004, revenue and earnings from continuing operations increased by 7 percent and 4 percent, respectively, compared with 2003. The 2004 improvement in revenue was concentrated in the Oil & Gas, Government and Global Services segments. All segments, with the exception of Power, had increases in operating profit in 2004 compared with 2003. Revenue and operating profit in the Power segment were substantially lower in 2004 compared with 2003 due to the decline in new awards due to the cyclical downward trend in the demand for new power plant construction and resulting project completions. The Government segment benefited from increased revenue beginning in the first quarter of 2004 from business acquisitions completed in 2003 and early 2004.
     During 2005 the company recognized an accrual in the amount of $19.1 million for foreign employment related taxes that may be payable primarily on behalf of certain United States expatriate employees working in certain foreign jurisdictions. The employment taxes primarily relate to stock based compensation where local tax reporting requirements differ in the method of calculation of taxable amounts from the reporting required in the United States. The accrual recognizes the aggregate of taxes due on compensation as required to be reported in these foreign jurisdictions. Approximately $15.3 million of the charge was recognized in the Oil & Gas segment with the majority of the balance recognized in Industrial & Infrastructure and minor amounts in the Government and Global Services segments.
     Earnings from continuing operations before taxes for the three years ended December 31, 2005 were $300 million in 2005, $281 million in 2004 and $268 million in 2003. Because of the decline in Power segment earnings,

which related largely to projects located in the United States, domestic operating profit has continued to decline during 2005 and 2004, offset by increases in operating profits from non-U.S. operations.
     The decrease in the 2005 tax rate compared with 2004 is primarily attributable to a favorable audit settlement with the Internal Revenue Service, tax benefit associated with the dividends made pursuant to the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, and the reversal of certain valuation allowances resulting from the realization of tax benefits associated with such items on the tax returns. These items include certain net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. In addition, the increased foreign activities of the company during the year also produced increased extraterritorial income exclusion tax benefit.
     The company had net earnings of $2.62 per share in 2005 compared with $2.25 per share in 2004 and $1.95 per share in 2003. Results in 2003 were negatively impacted by a loss from discontinued operations of $0.15 per share and a loss of $0.13 per share for the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. The results of discontinued operations are further discussed below. The loss from the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle relates to the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 46(R) relating to consolidation of entities that owned certain of the company’s leased facilities. Additional discussion of these facilities is contained in the Financing Obligations footnote in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.
     For a more detailed discussion of operating performance of each business segment, corporate administrative and general expense and other items, see Segment Operations and Corporate and Tax Matters below.
Discussion of Critical Accounting Policies
     The company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations is based upon its consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The company’s significant accounting policies are described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Estimates are based on information available as of the date 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 the Consolidated Financial Statements apply the following critical accounting policies.
     Engineering and Construction Contracts. Engineering and construction contract revenues are recognized on the percentage-of-completion method based on contract costs incurred to date compared with total estimated contract costs. This method of revenue recognition requires the company to prepare estimates of costs to complete contracts in progress. In making such estimates, judgments are required to evaluate contingencies such as potential variances in schedule and the cost of materials, labor costs and productivity, the impact of change orders, liability claims, contract disputes and achievement of contractual performance standards. Changes in total estimated contract costs and losses, if any, are recognized in the period they are determined. The majority of the company’s engineering and construction contracts provide for reimbursement of costs plus a fixed or percentage fee. In the highly competitive markets served by the company, there is an increasing trend for cost-reimbursable contracts with incentive-fee arrangements. As of December 31, 2005, 68 percent of the company’s backlog was cost reimbursable while 32 percent was for guaranteed maximum, fixed or unit price contracts. In certain instances, the company has provided guaranteed completion dates and/or achievement of other performance criteria. Failure to meet schedule or performance guarantees, as well as increases in contract costs can result in unrealized incentive fees or non-recoverable costs, which could exceed revenues realized from the projects.
     Claims arising from engineering and construction contracts have been made against the company by clients, and the company has made claims against clients for costs. The company recognizes certain significant claims for recovery of incurred costs when it is probable that the claim will result in additional contract revenue and when the amount of the claim can be reliably estimated. Recognized claims amounted to $144 million and $105 million at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Unapproved change orders are accounted for in revenue and cost when it is probable that the costs will be recovered through a change in the contract price. In circumstances where recovery is considered probable but the revenues cannot be reliably estimated, costs attributable to change orders are deferred pending determination of the impact on contract price.

Table of Contents

     Backlog in the engineering and construction industry is a measure of the total dollar value of work to be performed on contracts awarded and in progress. Although backlog reflects business that is considered to be firm, cancellations or scope adjustments may occur. Backlog is adjusted to reflect any known project cancellations, deferrals and revised project scope and costs, both upward and downward.
     Engineering and Construction Partnerships and Joint Ventures. Certain contracts are executed jointly through partnerships and joint ventures with unrelated third parties. The company accounts for its interests in the operations of these ventures on a proportional consolidation basis. Under this method of accounting, the company consolidates its proportional share of venture revenues, costs and operating profits in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings and generally uses the one-line equity method of accounting in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The most significant application of the proportional consolidation method is in the Oil & Gas, Industrial & Infrastructure and Government segments.
     The company’s accounting for project specific joint venture or consortium arrangements is closely integrated with the accounting for the underlying engineering and construction project for which the joint venture was established. The company engages in project specific joint venture or consortium arrangements in the ordinary course of business to share risks and/or to secure specialty skills required for project execution. Frequently, these arrangements are characterized by a 50 percent or less ownership or participation interest that requires only a small initial investment. Execution of a project is generally the single business purpose of these joint venture arrangements. When the company is the primary contractor responsible for execution, the project is accounted for as part of normal operations and included in consolidated revenues using appropriate contract accounting principles.
     Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 46 (Revised), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (FIN 46-R) provides the principles to consider in determining when variable interest entities must be consolidated in the financial statements of the primary beneficiary. In general, a variable interest entity is an entity used for business purposes that either (a) does not have equity investors with voting rights or (b) has equity investors that are not required to provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities without additional subordinated financial support. FIN 46-R requires a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity’s activities or is entitled to receive a majority of the entity’s residual returns or both. A company that consolidates a variable interest entity is called the primary beneficiary of that entity.
     Contracts that are executed jointly through partnerships and joint ventures are proportionally consolidated in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue 00-01, “Investor Balance Sheet and Income Statement Display under the Equity Method for Investments in Certain Partnerships and Other Ventures” (EITF 00-01) and Statement of Position 81-1, “Accounting for Performance of Construction Type and Certain Production Type Contracts” (SOP 81-1) issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The company evaluates the applicability of FIN 46-R to partnerships and joint ventures at the inception of its participation to ensure its accounting is in accordance with the appropriate standards.
     Foreign Currency. The company generally limits its exposure to foreign currency fluctuations in most of its engineering and construction contracts through provisions that require client payments in U.S. dollars or other currencies corresponding to the currency in which costs are incurred. As a result, the company generally does not need to hedge foreign currency cash flows for contract work performed. Under certain limited circumstances, such foreign currency payment provisions could be deemed embedded derivatives. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, the company had no significant foreign currency arrangements that constitute embedded derivatives in any of its contracts. Managing foreign currency risk on projects requires estimates of future cash flows and judgments about the timing and distribution of expenditures of foreign currencies.
     The company generally uses forward exchange contracts to hedge foreign currency transactions where contract provisions do not contain foreign currency provisions or the transaction is for a non-contract-related expenditure. The objective of this activity is to hedge the foreign exchange currency risk due to changes in exchange rates for currencies in which anticipated future cash payments will be made. The company does not engage in currency speculation.

     Deferred Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the company’s financial statements or tax returns. At December 31, 2005 the company had deferred tax assets of $323.7 million which were partially offset by a valuation allowance of $40.9 million and further reduced by deferred tax liabilities of $55.8 million. The valuation allowance reduces certain deferred tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be realized. This allowance primarily relates to the deferred tax assets established for certain net operating and capital loss carryforwards for U.S. and non-U.S. subsidiaries, and certain reserves on investments. The company evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets by assessing its valuation allowance and by adjusting the amount of such allowance, if necessary. The factors used to assess the likelihood of realization are the company’s forecast of future taxable income and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize the net deferred tax assets. Failure to achieve forecasted taxable income in the applicable taxing jurisdictions could affect the ultimate realization of deferred tax assets and could result in an increase in the company’s effective tax rate on future earnings.
     Retirement Benefits. The company accounts for its defined benefit pension plans in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87, “Employers’ Accounting for Pensions,” as amended (SFAS 87). As permitted by SFAS 87, changes in retirement plan obligations and assets set aside to pay benefits are not recognized as they occur but are recognized over subsequent periods. Assumptions concerning discount rates, long-term rates of return on assets and rates of increase in compensation levels are determined based on the current economic environment in each host country at the end of each respective annual reporting period. The company evaluates the funded status of each of its retirement plans using these current assumptions and determines the appropriate funding level considering applicable regulatory requirements, tax deductibility, reporting considerations and other factors. The continuing trend in recent years of low long-term interest rates has had the effect of increasing plan liabilities and if expected returns on plan assets are not achieved, future funding obligations could increase substantially. Assuming no changes in current assumptions, the company expects to fund between $35 million and $70 million for the calendar year 2006. If the discount rate were reduced by 25 basis points, plan liabilities would increase by approximately $29 million.
     Share-Based Payment. The company uses stock-based compensation to reward key executives and align their interests with those of shareholders. Types of stock-based compensation that have been awarded in recent years include restricted stock, options and stock appreciation rights.
     In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123-R), which is a revision of SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” SFAS 123-R supersedes Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (APB 25), and amends SFAS 95, “Statement of Cash Flows.” Generally, the approach in SFAS 123-R is similar to the approach described in SFAS 123. However, SFAS 123-R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Upon adoption of SFAS 123-R, pro forma disclosure of the impact of share-based payments to employees is no longer permitted.
     The provisions of SFAS 123-R apply to awards granted after the required effective date of the statement, which is no later than January 1, 2006 for the company. Initial application to existing unvested stock option awards may be based on either a modified prospective method or a modified retrospective method. The method of application selected by the company will determine which, if any, previously reported operating results will be restated.
     As permitted by SFAS 123, the company currently accounts for share-based payments to employees using the intrinsic value method pursuant to APB 25 and, as such, recognizes no compensation cost for employee stock options. Accordingly, the adoption of SFAS 123-R’s fair value method will have an impact on results of operations, although it will have no impact on overall financial position. The impact of adoption of SFAS 123-R will not be material based on unvested options outstanding at December 31, 2005. Had SFAS 123-R been adopted in prior periods, the impact would be as presented in the disclosure of pro forma earnings and earnings per share in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Adoption of the new standard will also have an impact on the timing of expense recognition for new stock based awards, as discussed in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
     SFAS 123-R also requires the benefits of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation cost to be reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as an operating cash flow as currently required. This requirement will generally impact cash provided or utilized by operating activities with equal offset in cash flows from financing activities in

25

periods after adoption. While the company cannot estimate what those amounts will be in the future (because they depend on, among other things, when employees exercise stock options), the amounts of operating cash flows recognized for such excess tax deductions were $17 million, $14 million and $4 million in the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
Segment Operations
     The company provides professional services on a global basis in the fields of engineering, procurement, construction and maintenance (“EPCM”) and is organized into five business segments: Oil & Gas, Industrial & Infrastructure, Government, Global Services and Power. The Oil & Gas segment provides engineering, procurement and construction professional services for upstream oil and gas production, downstream refining and certain petrochemical markets. The Industrial & Infrastructure segment provides engineering, procurement and construction professional services for manufacturing and life sciences facilities, commercial and institutional buildings, mining, microelectronics, telecommunications and transportation projects and other facilities. The Government segment provides project management, engineering, construction, and contingency response services to the United States government. The Global Services segment includes operations and maintenance, construction equipment, temporary staffing and global sourcing and procurement services. The Power segment provides professional services to engineer and construct power generation facilities.
     Oil & Gas. In the first quarter of 2005, the chemicals business line, which had been part of the Industrial & Infrastructure segment, was realigned under the Oil & Gas segment. This change was made to better match the needs for the large number of petrochemical projects anticipated over the next few years with the Oil & Gas segment’s large project support infrastructure. All prior periods have been restated to reflect this change. Commencing in the third quarter of 2004, as the result of a shift in the markets served by and the types of projects awarded to ICA Fluor Daniel (“ICA Fluor”), its operating results, new awards and backlog are included in the Oil & Gas segment. ICA Fluor was previously included in the Power segment. Prior periods have not been restated for the change in segment classification of ICA Fluor.
     Revenue in the Oil & Gas segment amounted to $5.3 billion, $3.4 billion and $2.7 billion for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The 54 percent increase during 2005 and 26 percent increase during 2004 resulted from the strength of new contract awards over the past several years due to the higher level of global oil and gas exploration and refining, and also included $294 million in 2005 from the Hamaca project settlement discussed further below. Operating profit margin in the Oil & Gas segment was 4.6 percent in 2005 compared with 4.7 percent in 2004 and 4.4 percent in 2003. Although 2005 operating margin was favorably impacted by the $30.5 million settlement discussed in the following paragraph, margin was reduced by the impact of the $15.3 million employment tax charge discussed above under Summary of Overall Company Results.
     During the third quarter of 2005, the company settled all outstanding claims with the owners’ consortium on the Hamaca Crude Upgrader Project in Jose, Venezuela. The pending arbitration proceedings have been dismissed. The settlement reimbursed the company for its incurred costs arising from change orders on the project and for its cost of capital in funding those incurred costs. The settlement was recorded in revenue and resulted in recognition of $30.5 million in operating profit in the Oil & Gas segment.
     New awards in the Oil & Gas segment were $4.4 billion in 2005, $4.0 billion in 2004 and $4.1 billion in 2003. The segment is participating in an expanding market that includes very large “mega-projects” in diverse geographical locations, which are very well suited for Fluor’s global execution and project management capabilities and strong financial position. New project awards in 2005 included $1.3 billion for two large international petrochemical projects, $1.0 billion for a gas complex in the United Arab Emirates and $774 million from a Canadian oil sands project. New project awards in 2004 included a $570 million oil sands project and a $244 million clean fuels project, which are both in Canada, a $346 million refinery complex modernization project in Mexico and a $176 million refinery upgrade project in South Africa. New project awards in 2003 include the Tengizchevroil (“TCO”) project, a major oil and gas development in Kazakhstan.
     Backlog for the Oil & Gas segment was $6.0 billion, up sequentially from $5.3 billion at December 31, 2004 and $3.8 billion at December 31, 2003. The 2005 growth relates principally to the continued strength of new awards and

26


Table of Contents

project scope adjustments to existing projects. The 2004 backlog growth included the impacts of new awards and the reclassification of ICA Fluor during the year.
     Total assets in the Oil & Gas segment decreased to $575 million at December 31, 2005 from $731 million at December 31, 2004, reflecting the net impact of the settlement on the Hamaca project, partially offset by additional costs associated with the higher level of project execution activities. Total assets in the Oil & Gas segment were $523 million at December 31, 2003. The 2004 increase includes the impact of the growth in segment revenues, as well as incurred costs that were deferred on the Hamaca project of $70 million.
     Industrial & Infrastructure. As mentioned above, in the first quarter of 2005, the chemicals business line, which had been part of the Industrial & Infrastructure segment, was realigned under the Oil & Gas segment. Again, this change was made to better match the needs for the large number of petrochemical projects anticipated over the next few years with the Oil & Gas segment’s large project support infrastructure. All prior periods have been restated to reflect this change.
     The Industrial & Infrastructure segment had revenues of $3.2 billion, $2.1 billion and $2.5 billion for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Revenues increased significantly during 2005, primarily as the result of the strength of 2004 contract awards. The 18 percent decline in revenues during 2004 resulted from slow start-up progress on recently awarded projects and a lower level of new awards in the latter half of 2003. In addition, certain projects that were removed from backlog in 2003 also had a negative impact on the volume of work performed in 2004.
     The Industrial & Infrastructure segment reported an operating loss of $16.7 million for 2005, compared with operating profits of $62.4 million and $63.1 million for 2004 and 2003, respectively. Operating results for the segment have been impacted in all three years by provisions relating to specific projects.
     During 2005, a $32.1 million charge relating to the no-liability resolution of a Cayman Islands project was recorded. On June 23, 2005, Fluor Daniel Caribbean, Inc. (“FD Caribbean”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the company, received an unfavorable jury verdict awarding $28.8 million to the developer of a resort hotel project in the Caribbean. FD Caribbean was the general contractor on the project, which is located in the Cayman Islands. As a consequence, the company recorded a $65 million charge in its second quarter to recognize the jury award, estimated attorney fees and pre-judgment interest, and reversal of previously billed accounts receivable for work performed on the project. At the time of the original jury decision, the company strongly believed the verdict was not supported by the facts or by applicable law. On September 15, 2005, the judge who tried the case granted the company’s motion for a new trial, setting aside the unfavorable verdict in its totality. On September 29, 2005, in lieu of a new trial, the parties stipulated to a judgment of no liability in favor of either side, and the action was dismissed with prejudice. As a result, the company reversed the provision for the jury award, estimated attorney fees and pre-judgment interest in the third quarter of 2005.
     The company participates in a 50/50 joint venture that is executing a fixed-price transportation infrastructure project in California. The project continues to be subject to circumstances including owner-directed scope changes leading to quantity growth, cost escalation, and additional labor, resulting in additional costs due to schedule delays. The company continues to evaluate the impact of these circumstances on estimated total project costs, as well as claims for recoveries and other contingencies on the project. During 2005 and 2004, provisions of $24 million and $28 million, respectively, were recorded due to these increasing estimated costs. While the estimate of total project costs is based on the final design including changes directed by the client, any future changes in these estimates will be recognized when identified.
     To date, the joint venture has submitted claims totaling approximately $112 million to the client. Costs totaling $28.7 million have been incurred by the joint venture against these claims as of December 31, 2005 and the company has recognized its $14.4 million proportionate share of these costs in revenue.
     In addition to charges arising from the Cayman Islands and transportation infrastructure projects discussed above, during 2005 the segment recorded provisions totaling approximately $50 million relating to a number of other projects that have been the subject of dispute resolution activities. Project losses recognized in 2005 include settlements on a resort hotel project in the Bahamas and two life sciences projects. These projects were bid under

27

fixed price or guaranteed maximum commercial terms where the risk of variances in cost estimates remain with the company. Where the company had determined that costs incurred in excess of the contract price should be the responsibility of the owner, the company made claims against the owners for recovery of costs incurred. Dispute resolution activities have now been concluded on these matters and settlements have been finalized. Several other matters of lesser significance were concluded and incurred costs deemed to be unrecoverable including certain legal fees were recognized in 2005.
     During 2004, operating profit included the recorded provision for the transportation infrastructure project discussed above and a $7.2 million positive impact from a recovery of insurance proceeds relating to the Verde Gold project. In 2003, operating profit was negatively impacted by a $7.4 million charge relating to the write-down of an equity investment in a magnesium smelter project in Australia.
     The company is involved in arbitration proceedings in connection with its London Connect Project (“LUL”), a $500 million lump sum project to design and install a telecommunications network that allows reception and transmissions throughout the London Underground system. In February 2005, the company sought relief through arbitration proceedings for two issues. First, the company is seeking relief for the overall delay and disruption to the project that relates to the contract time period of 2001 through 2003. The arbitration hearing on this matter is scheduled to commence in May 2006. In addition, a claim for delay and disruption subsequent to 2003 will be submitted to the dispute resolution process shortly. The total costs incurred amounting to $44 million relating to delay and disruption for the entire contract period have been recognized as claims. The second issue concerns the responsibility for enabling the various train stock to accept the new telecommunication network equipment. Hearings involving LUL, the company and Motorola, a subcontractor, are completed and the parties await the arbitration award.
     New awards in the Industrial & Infrastructure segment were $2.3 billion during 2005, following a very strong level of $4.6 billion in 2004 and $2.2 billion during 2003. The lower level of new awards in 2005 includes the impact of reduced spending by life sciences customers and the timing of receipt of large mining awards. New awards in 2004 included a variety of mining, life sciences and manufacturing projects throughout the world.
     Backlog for the Industrial & Infrastructure segment declined to $3.9 billion at the end of 2005 from $5.1 billion at the end of 2004. For 2003, ending backlog was $2.9 billion. The 2005 decline includes the impact of the lower level of new awards during the year and reductions relating primarily to the cancellations of a number of life sciences projects. The growth during 2004 was reflective of the substantial new awards during the year.
     Government. The Government segment had revenues of $2.7 billion, $2.3 billion and $1.7 billion for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The 19 percent increase in revenue during 2005 resulted principally from FEMA contracts associated with hurricane relief efforts in certain states bordering the Gulf of Mexico and an increase in reconstruction activity in Iraq. The 34 percent increase in revenue during 2004 resulted principally from reconstruction activity in Iraq, strong performance on environmental remediation programs for the Department of Energy (“DOE”), and approximately $220 million from businesses acquired in 2004 and 2003. Del-Jen, Inc. (“Del-Jen”) was acquired late in the first quarter of 2003 and J.A. Jones was acquired in the fourth quarter of 2003. In addition, Trend Western was acquired by Del-Jen in the first quarter of 2004. Revenue in all three years includes work for ongoing environmental restoration, engineering, construction, site operations and maintenance services at two major DOE sites: the Fernald Environmental Management Project (“Fernald”) in Ohio and the Hanford Environmental Management Project in Washington.
     The operating profit for the Government segment during 2005 of $83.7 million, or 3 percent of revenues, was essentially unchanged compared with 2004. Although 2005 operating profit increased due to the year’s revenue growth, that improvement was offset by a $5 million charge related to the settlement of a civil lawsuit with the U.S. Department of Justice and provisions totaling $56 million recognized on four embassy projects. These embassy projects have been adversely impacted by higher costs due to scope changes, unexpected execution problems, increases in material cost and subcontractor difficulties. The company has 11 embassy projects that are in various stages of completion under contracts with the United States Department of State. Claims for equitable adjustment on seven of these projects totaling approximately $77.5 million have been identified to date and as of December 31, 2005, $44.3 million in costs relating to these claims have been incurred and recognized in revenue. Additional claim recoveries continue to be evaluated.

     For the year ended December 31, 2004, operating profit of $83.5 million, or 3.7 percent of revenue, compares with $48.1 million, or 2.8 percent of revenue, during 2003. The earnings growth resulted from strong performance on environmental nuclear projects and from the full year effect of the Del-Jen and Trend Western acquisitions.
     New awards in the Government segment were $2.5 billion during 2005, compared with $2.3 billion during 2004 and $2.0 billion in 2003. During the past two years new awards have increased due to new FEMA contracts, reconstruction activities in Iraq and business acquisitions. Many projects performed on behalf of U.S. government clients under multi-year contracts provide for annual funding. As a result, new awards for the Government segment only reflect the annual award of work to be performed over the ensuing 12 months for annually-funded contracts. Backlog has remained fairly constant over the past three years, at $1.4 billion for 2005 and $1.5 billion for 2004 and 2003.
     Total assets in the Government segment increased to $905 million at December 31, 2005, up from $654 million at December 31, 2004 and $475 million at December 31, 2003. The 2005 increase was the combined result of significant increases in accounts receivable and contract work in progress relating to FEMA and Iraq reconstruction projects, the embassy claims, and unbilled fees on the Fernald project. The 2004 increase related principally to Iraq reconstruction projects and unbilled fees on the Fernald project.
     The segment has recognized unbilled fees totaling $130 million related to the Fernald project. The project has moved into the closeout stage and contract terms provide that a portion of the earned fees will not be billed until project completion in 2006. Deferred fees recognized in revenue in 2005, 2004 and 2003 were $38.9 million, $36.8 million and $21.9 million, respectively.
     Global Services. The Global Services segment had revenues of $1.6 billion, $1.3 billion and $1.1 billion for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Increased operations and maintenance and equipment rental activities have been the primary drivers of these increases. Operating profit margin in the Global Services segment was 7.2 percent, 7.8 percent and 8.7 percent for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 respectively. The small decline during 2005 resulted from a shift in the mix of business among the segment’s various service lines. The 2004 decline was the result of lower levels of self-perform construction activity and reduced margins resulting from competitive factors in the operations and maintenance business.
     The equipment, temporary staffing and global sourcing and procurement operations do not report backlog due to the short turnaround between the receipt of new awards and the recognition of revenue. Accordingly, new awards and backlog for the segment relate to the operations and maintenance activities only.
     New awards in the Global Services segment increased 42 percent, to $2.2 billion during 2005, and 23 percent, to $1.5 billion during 2004, from $1.3 billion during 2003. Continued growth in the number of client sites served gave rise to these increases.
     During 2005, backlog for the Global Services segment increased by 9 percent, to $2.5 billion, from $2.3 billion at the end of 2004. Backlog increased 24 percent during 2004, from $1.8 billion at December 31, 2003. This growth was principally the result of the increase in new awards discussed in the preceding paragraph, although a change in scope on a large maintenance contract resulted in the removal of $400 million in materials costs from backlog during 2005.
     Total assets in the Global Services segment increased to $640 million at December 31, 2005, up from $463 million at December 31, 2004 and $384 million at December 31, 2003. These increases were the combined result of significant increases in capital expenditures, accounts receivable and contract work in progress relating to hurricane relief projects and equipment rentals associated with Iraq reconstruction contracts.
     Power. In July 2003, the company jointly announced with Duke Energy Corporation the decision to terminate the Duke/Fluor Daniel partnership (“D/FD”) as a result of the significant decline in the construction of new power plants. The dissolution was substantially completed in 2005 and did not have a material impact on results of

29


Table of Contents

operations or financial position of the company. The Power segment continues to identify and pursue power generation opportunities with its own resources.
     Commencing in the third quarter of 2004, as the result of a shift in the markets served by and the types of projects awarded to ICA Fluor, its operating results, new awards and backlog are included in the Oil & Gas segment rather than the Power segment where it was previously reported. Prior periods have not been restated for the change in segment classification of ICA Fluor.
     The Power segment has reported significantly lower revenue in 2005 and 2004, of $384 million and $326 million, respectively, than during 2003, when $759 million was reported. This decline resulted from the reduced level of construction of new power plants discussed above.
     Operating profit margin in the Power segment declined to 3.5 percent during 2005 from 4.2 percent during 2004. The 2005 margin reflects the negative impact of a loss on one project, partly offset by favorable performance on a number of other projects. The 2004 margin reflects performance on projects that were either completed or nearing completion, where profit recognition is strongest and a favorable settlement for a dispute relating to a project that was completed in 2002. The favorable results were partly offset by unexpected costs associated with a waste-coal power plant start-up and commissioning. Operating margin during 2003 was a very strong 10.2 percent, which was attributable to highly successful execution resulting in early completion of a number of projects. Projects in the Power segment are often bid and awarded on a fixed price basis. This method of contracting provides opportunities for margin improvement resulting from successful execution, but also exposes the segment to the risk of cost overruns due to factors such as material cost and labor productivity variances or schedule delays.
     New awards in the Power segment recovered due to a modest strengthening in the power generation market during 2005 and 2004. New awards were to $1.0 billion in 2005 and $612 million in 2004, compared with $485 million during 2003. New awards in 2005 included a contract for the installation of three flue-gas desulphurization units at a coal-fired power facility in Kentucky and a 2000 megawatt power plant in Nevada. New awards in 2004 included one for the recommissioning of a power plant in South Africa and a contract for the completion of a partially-constructed natural gas-fired plant in Nevada.
     Backlog for the Power segment increased to $1.1 billion at December 31, 2005 from $552 million at December 31, 2004, reflecting the new awards in 2005. During 2004, backlog declined from $605 million at December 31, 2003, which included the impact of the movement of ICA Fluor to the Oil & Gas segment.
Corporate and Tax Matters
     Corporate. For the three years ended December 31, 2005, corporate administrative and general expenses were $143.7 million, $142.4 million and $141.5 million, respectively. Included in these amounts is non-operating income of $11 million, $9 million and $1 million, respectively. The 2005 and 2004 amounts relate primarily to gains from sales of portfolio properties in both years and a gain from disposal of a residual property interest in 2004. Corporate administrative and general expense, excluding non-operating items, increased two percent in 2005 and six percent in 2004. The factors that impacted the 2004 expense level continued in 2005, and additional expenses were incurred with respect to the relocation of the corporate headquarters, as discussed below. The 2004 increase was the net result of savings from successful expense reduction programs and favorable pension adjustments, offset by higher executive incentives and costs of complying with the provisions of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002.
     On May 10, 2005, the company announced its decision to relocate its corporate headquarters from Southern California to the Dallas/Fort Worth metropolitan area. This move is expected to improve operational efficiency and position the company to more effectively serve its global client base. Of the approximately 390 headquarters staff located in Aliso Viejo, California on May 10, 2005, approximately 200 employees will either stay in Southern California or move to other U.S. office locations. Approximately 80 employees from Southern California and other company locations will relocate to the new Texas headquarters where approximately 100 additional employees are expected to be hired. Approximately 130 employees will leave the company as a result of the move.

30


Table of Contents

     The cost of employee displacements is being accrued ratably starting in the third quarter of 2005 through the anticipated date of the Southern California headquarters office closure in the second quarter of 2006. All other relocation and hiring costs are charged to expense as incurred.
     For the year ended December 31, 2005, corporate administrative expenses include $5.7 million for relocation costs, which comprises the accrual of employee displacement costs and other direct expenses. Additional employee relocation and hiring costs and facility relocation costs totaling approximately $19 million are expected to be incurred during 2006, which will also be included in corporate administrative and general expense.
     The existing corporate facility in Aliso Viejo was sold in September 2005. A short-term, market rate lease-back has been negotiated with the buyer that will allow the company to continue to occupy the facility for up to 18 months. The cost of the new Texas headquarters is expected to approximate $60 million and will be paid from available cash resources including proceeds from the sale of the current headquarters facility.
     Net interest income was $7.4 million, $3.5 million and $3.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Higher interest income in 2005 relates principally to larger investment balances and higher short-term interest rates.
     Tax. The effective tax rates on the company’s continuing operations were 24.1 percent, 33.6 percent and 33.0 percent for the years 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The decrease in the 2005 tax rate compared with 2004 is primarily attributable to a favorable audit settlement with the Internal Revenue Service, tax benefit associated with the dividends made pursuant to the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (the “Jobs Act”) as more fully discussed below, and the reversal of certain valuation allowance resulting from the realization of tax benefits associated with such items on the tax returns. These items include certain net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. In addition, the increased foreign activities of the company during the year also produced increased extraterritorial income exclusion tax benefit. These aforementioned favorable tax rate variances were partially offset by the tax effect recorded on certain foreign earnings which the company had previously planned to reinvest overseas indefinitely. During 2005, the company reviewed its intent with respect to such foreign earnings and decided to forego this permanent reinvestment plan. Accordingly, the 2005 tax rate reflects the U.S. tax effect on these earnings.
     The slight rise in the tax rate in 2004 compared with 2003 is primarily due to the increase in non-deductible expenses. Such increase, however, was partially offset by the reversal of certain valuation allowances arising from the utilization of certain tax credit carryforward, and the decrease in state income taxes largely attributable to the utilization of prior year net operating losses in California, which losses were suspended in 2003 and 2002 due to the state’s deficit position. In addition, during 2004 the company disposed of certain business assets, which resulted in a favorable effective tax rate variance due to certain permanent book/tax basis differences.
     On October 22, 2004, the Jobs Act was signed into law. Among its various provisions, the Jobs Act creates a one-time incentive for U.S. corporations to repatriate certain qualified foreign earnings by providing an 85 percent dividends received deduction, subject to specific reinvestment guidelines and certain limitations. On December 21, 2004, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position 109-2, “Accounting and Disclosure Guidance for the Foreign Earnings Repatriation Provision within the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004” (“FSP 109-2”). FSP 109-2 allows companies additional time beyond the financial reporting period in which the Jobs Act was enacted to evaluate the effect of the Jobs Act on a company’s plan for reinvestment or repatriation of unremitted foreign earnings for the purpose of applying Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.”
     On August 11, 2005, the company’s Domestic Reinvestment Plan (the “Plan”) prepared pursuant to the Jobs Act was approved by the company’s Chief Executive Officer. The Plan was ratified by the Executive Committee of the company’s Board of Directors on August 29, 2005.
     On September 29, 2005, approximately $89 million was repatriated from certain foreign subsidiaries of the company, including certain previously taxed income and the base year amount as provided under the repatriation provision of the Jobs Act. The results of operations for 2005 include a tax benefit of $3.8 million attributable to the dividends received deduction net of the foreign tax credits given up in exchange for such deduction. Note that this

tax benefit decreased slightly from $4.1 million reported in the third quarter due to a true-up of the 2005 operating results in the fourth quarter.
Discontinued Operations
     In September 2001, the Board of Directors approved a plan to dispose of certain non-core operations of the company’s construction equipment and non-EPCM components of its temporary staffing businesses. An active program to consummate such disposal was initiated and completed as of the end of the second quarter of 2003.
     During 2003 the last remaining dealership operation was sold generating proceeds of $31.9 million. Revenue, earnings and loss on disposal for discontinued operations during 2003 were $30.1 million, $1.5 million and $13.1 million, respectively. There have been no results of operations reported as discontinued operations for any period subsequent to June 30, 2003.

Fluor Daniel International and Fluor Arabia Ltd. V. General Electric Company, et al
U.S.D.C., Southern District Court, New York
     In October 1998, Fluor Daniel International and Fluor Arabia Ltd. filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against General Electric Company and certain operating subsidiaries as well as Saudi American General Electric, a Saudi Arabian corporation. The complaint seeks damages in connection with the engineering, procurement and construction of the Rabigh Combined Cycle Power Plant in Saudi Arabia. Subsequent to a motion to compel arbitration of the matter, the company initiated arbitration proceedings in New York under the American Arbitration Association international rules. The evidentiary phase of the arbitration has been concluded. In January 2005 the arbitration panel indicated that it would be rendering its decision in two phases; the first to be a decision on entitlement and second, a decision on damages. On May 4, 2005 the arbitration panel issued a partial award on entitlement issues which confirmed Fluor’s entitlement to recovery of certain of its claims for costs incurred in construction of the plant. A decision determining the amount recoverable has yet to be issued by the arbitration panel.
Dearborn Industrial Project
Duke/Fluor Daniel (D/FD)
     The Dearborn Industrial Project (the “Project”) started as a co-generation combined cycle power plant project in Dearborn, Michigan. The initial Turnkey Agreement, dated November 24, 1998, consisted of three phases. Commencing shortly after Notice to Proceed, the owner/operator, Dearborn Industrial Generation (“DIG”), issued substantial change orders enlarging the scope of the project.

     The Project was severely delayed with completion of Phase II. DIG unilaterally took over completion and operation of Phase II and commissioned that portion of the plant. Shortly thereafter, DIG drew upon a $30 million letter of credit which Duke/Fluor Daniel (“D/FD”) expects to recover upon resolution of the dispute. D/FD retains lien rights (in fee) against the project. In October 2001, D/FD commenced an action in Michigan State Court to foreclose on the lien interest.
     In December 2001, DIG filed a responsive pleading denying liability and simultaneously served a demand for arbitration to D/FD claiming, among other things, that D/FD is liable to DIG for alleged construction delays and defective engineering and construction work at the Dearborn plant. The court has ordered the matter to arbitration. The lien action remains stayed pending completion of the arbitration of D/FD’s claims against DIG and DIG’s claims against D/FD. An arbitration panel has been appointed and the arbitration is underway.
Financial Position and Liquidity
     Cash provided by operating activities during 2005 was $409 million of which $245 million was provided by reductions in net operating assets and liabilities, primarily due to cash collected in connection with the close-out of the Hamaca project. The company used significant cash in 2004 and 2003 to fund ongoing work and change orders relating to the Hamaca project. In both 2004 and 2003, net operating assets and liabilities increased by amounts greater than funds generated by other earnings sources resulting in cash being utilized by operating activities. Significant cash was used in 2004 and 2003 to fund projects in the Power segment resulting in a reduction in advances from affiliate of $45 million and $213 million, respectively. These advances represented the company’s proportional share of excess cash from Duke/Fluor Daniel that was generated from client advance payments received in prior years upon award of projects. With the completion of nearly all work on Duke/Fluor Daniel projects as of the end of 2004, the amounts advanced to the company had been substantially repaid to the partnership and used in project execution. The company jointly announced with Duke Energy Corporation in 2003, the decision to dissolve the partnership. The dissolution was largely completed in 2005 with no significant impact on cash flows.
     The levels of operating assets and liabilities vary from year to year and are affected by the mix, stage of completion and commercial terms of engineering and construction projects. The increase in new awards over the last three years will continue to result in periodic start-up activities where the use of cash is greatest on projects for which cash is not provided by advances from clients. As work progresses on individual projects and client payments on invoiced amounts begin, cash used in start-up activities is recovered and cash flows tend to stabilize through project completion. Liquidity is also provided by substantial advance billings on contracts in progress, which prior to 2004 included the company’s proportional share of excess cash that was advanced to the company by Duke/Fluor Daniel. As customer advances are used in project execution and not replaced by advances on new projects, the company’s cash position will be reduced. In the event there is net investment in operating assets that exceeds available cash balances the company maintains short-term borrowing facilities to satisfy any periodic net operating cash outflows.
     Cash from operating activities is used to provide contributions to the company’s defined contribution and defined benefit plans. While contributions to defined contribution plans have remained relatively stable over the past three years, contributions to the defined benefit plans have shown more variability, at $89 million in 2005 compared with $30 million in 2004 and $52 million in 2003. The large contributions in 2005 and 2003 were due in part to the variability of actual returns on plan assets coupled with the business objective to utilize available resources to maintain or achieve full funding of accumulated benefits in most of the plans. One plan that was not fully funded in 2004 and 2003 received a contribution totaling $60 million which provides full funding to the level of accumulated benefits as of December 31, 2005. As of December 31, 2005 all plans are funded to at least the level of accumulated benefits.
     During 2003, the receipt of funds from insurance claims relating to the Murrin Murrin project amounted to $84.1 million. As of December 31, 2005, amounts due from the insurance companies for claims submitted have been collected except for minor amounts of arbitration defense costs.
     Business acquisitions utilized cash of $33.0 million during 2004 (for the acquisition of Trend Western) and $54.5 million during 2003 (for the acquisition of Del-Jen, P2S and J.A. Jones International). Cash flows from

investing activities during 2005 and 2004 included $45.0 million and $58.6 million from the sale of real estate assets and a residual property interest and $24.7 million and $22.2 million, respectively from the disposal of other property, plant and equipment. During 2003 the company realized $26.1 million from the disposal of property, plant and equipment and $31.9 million in proceeds from the sale of the last discontinued equipment dealership operation.
     Cash utilized by investing activities in 2005, 2004 and 2003 included capital expenditures of $213.2 million, $104.4 million and $79.0 million, respectively, for continuing operations. Capital expenditures for continuing operations include $23.9 million in 2005 for construction of the new corporate headquarters facility in Texas, but otherwise relate primarily relate to the equipment operations in the Global Services segment that support engineering and construction projects. The increase in these capital expenditures over the past three years related largely to rental equipment to support reconstruction activity in Iraq in all years and hurricane recovery in the United States during 2005. Capital expenditures in future periods will include equipment purchases for the equipment operations of the Global Services segment, completion of the new headquarters facility and renewal and refurbishment of other facilities, and computer infrastructure in support of the company’s continuing investment in automated systems. New engineering and construction joint ventures of the Industrial and Infrastructure segment in the United Kingdom during 2005 required capital contributions totaling approximately $30 million.
     In July 2004, the company entered into a new, five-year, $800 million Senior Credit Facility. The agreement replaced existing facilities totaling $700 million. Of the total capacity, $300 million is dedicated to commercial paper back-up lines. The balance is available for letters of credit and funded loans. As of December 31, 2004, primarily in response to significant increases in funds required for project operations, the company had outstanding borrowings of $129.9 million in the commercial paper market. These borrowings were repaid during 2005.
     During 2004, the company issued $330 million of 1.5 percent Convertible Senior Notes (the “Notes”) due 2024, realizing net proceeds of $323 million. Proceeds from the Notes were used to pay off all outstanding commercial paper and $100.0 million was used to obtain ownership of the Aliso Viejo engineering and corporate offices through payoff of the lease financing. Ownership of the Calgary, Canada facilities was also obtained during 2004 through the payoff of $28.6 million of lease financing using available Canadian cash balances.
     In December 2004, the company irrevocably elected to pay the principal amount of the Notes in cash if a specified trading price of the company’s common stock (the “trigger price”) is achieved and maintained for a specified period and the Notes are presented by the holders for conversion. During the fourth quarter of 2005, the trigger price was achieved for the specified number of days and the Notes have therefore been classified as short-term debt as of December 31, 2005. The company does not know the amount, if any, of the Notes that will be presented for conversion, and will use available cash balances to satisfy any required repayments.
     In December 2004, the company filed a “shelf” registration statement for the issuance of up to $500 million of any combination of debt securities or common stock, the proceeds from which could be used for debt retirement, the funding of working capital requirements or other corporate purposes. The company has entered into a distribution agreement for up to two million shares of common stock. During 2005 the company sold 758,367 shares under this distribution agreement, realizing net proceeds of $41.8 million.
     During 2005, an equity bridge loan and non-recourse project financing provided $16.8 million and $57.6 million, respectively, of financing cash flow. These amounts relate to the consolidation of a joint venture, as discussed in National Roads Telecommunications Services Project below.
     Proceeds from stock option exercises provided cash flow of $50.6 million, $61.7 million and $28.5 million during 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The company has a common stock repurchase program, authorized by the Board of Directors, to purchase shares under certain market conditions. No purchases were made during 2005 or 2004. During 2003, the company purchased 94,000 shares for total consideration of $2.7 million. The maximum number of shares that could be purchased under the existing repurchase program is 4.1 million shares. There is no present plan to purchase any shares under the existing program.
     Cash dividends declared in 2005, 2004 and 2003 were at the rate of $0.64 per share. Declared dividends are typically paid during the month following the quarter in which they are declared. However, for the dividend paid to shareholders as of January 3, 2006, payment by the company to the disbursing agent occurred in the month of

34


Table of Contents

December 2005, resulting in two cash payments by the company in the fourth quarter. In the first quarter of 2006, the company’s Board of Directors authorized an increase in the dividend payable April 3, 2006 to $0.20 per share. The payment and level of future cash dividends will be subject to the discretion of the company’s Board of Directors.
     Beginning in 2003 and continuing through 2004, exchange rates for functional currencies for most of the company’s international operations strengthened against the U.S. dollar resulting in unrealized translation gains that are reflected in the cumulative translation component of other comprehensive income. This trend reversed during 2005 and unrealized translation losses occurred. Unrealized losses of $32.9 million in 2005 and unrealized gains of $40.0 million and $45.1 million in 2004 and 2003, respectively, relate to cash balances held in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Because most of the cash held in foreign currencies will be used for project related expenditures in those currencies, the company’s exposure to realized exchange gains and losses is considered nominal.
     The company has sufficient sources of funds to meet its anticipated operating needs. Cash on hand, short- and long-term lines of credit and potential issuances of debt or equity securities under the shelf registration statement give the company significant operating liquidity. For the next 12 months, cash generated from operations supplemented by borrowings under credit facilities and the issuance of debt or equity securities are expected to be sufficient to fund operations.
     Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements (including contractual obligations). The company maintains a variety of commercial commitments that are generally made available to provide support for various commercial provisions in its engineering and construction contracts. The company has $976 million in committed and uncommitted lines of credit to support letters of credit. In addition, the company has $61 million in uncommitted lines for general cash management purposes. Letters of credit are provided to clients in the ordinary course of business in lieu of retention or for performance and completion guarantees on engineering and construction contracts. At December 31, 2005, the company had utilized $542 million of its letter of credit capacity. The company also posts surety bonds as generally required by commercial terms, primarily on state and local government projects to guarantee its performance on contracts.
     Contractual obligations at December 31, 2005 are summarized as follows:

     The company has a joint venture arrangement that will design, build, finance and maintain an aircraft refueling facility at a United States Air Force base in Qatar for the Defense Energy Support Center, an agency of the Department of Defense. The company has a 27.5 percent interest in the joint venture company. On April 29, 2005, the joint venture entered into an agreement for project financing which includes a joint and several project completion guarantee by the members of the joint venture. The maximum potential amount of future payments that could be required under the guarantee is $76.5 million, the maximum principal amount available under the financing arrangement, plus any accrued interest. The facility is presently over 50 percent complete and proceeding as expected.

National Roads Telecommunications Services (“NRTS”) Project
     During 2005 the company’s Industrial & Infrastructure segment was awarded a $544 million project by a joint venture, GeneSYS Telecommunications Limited (“GeneSYS”), which is consolidated in the company’s consolidated financial statements. The project was entered into with the United Kingdom Secretary of State for Transport (the “Highways Agency”) to design, build, maintain and finance a new integrated transmission network throughout England’s motorways. The project will be executed by GeneSYS in which the company owns a 45 percent interest and HSBC Infrastructure Fund Management Limited, which owns a 55 percent interest. GeneSYS will finance the engineering and construction (“E&C”) of upgraded telecommunications infrastructure with approximately $240 million (£140 million) of non-recourse debt (the “term loan facility”) from a consortium of lenders (the “Banks”) along with joint venture member capital contributions totaling approximately $37 million (£22 million). The equity contributions by the joint venture members have been provided through equity bridge loans from the Banks. The loans have been guaranteed or secured in proportion to each member’s equity participation. The equity bridge loans are repayable upon completion of the upgrade at which time the equity members are required to fund their contributions to the joint venture.
     During construction, the availability of the existing telecommunications network will be maintained for the Highways Agency by GeneSYS. Upon completion of the upgrade, operating availability of the network will be provided to the Highways Agency and the system will be fully maintained by GeneSYS. Under this arrangement, GeneSYS is entitled to payments from the Highways Agency for network availability, operations and maintenance (“O&M”) plus fees for on-demand maintenance services. The company has been engaged by GeneSYS to provide design engineering and construction of the network as well as O&M and on-demand services for the existing and upgraded facilities under a subcontract extending through 2016.
     Based on a qualitative analysis of the operations of GeneSYS and the variable interests of all parties to the arrangement, under the provisions of FIN 46-R the company has been determined to be the primary beneficiary of the joint venture. The company’s December 31, 2005 financial statements include the accounts of GeneSYS, and, accordingly, the nonrecourse debt provided by the Banks.
     The term loan facility provides for interest only at LIBOR plus a margin of 95 basis points during construction of the upgraded facilities reducing to a margin of 90 basis points after completion of construction and continuing until fully repaid. Commitment fees are payable on unused portions of the facility. Payments are due in installments over the term of the services period ending in 2016.
     The term loan facility is an obligation of GeneSYS and will never be a debt obligation of the company because it is non-recourse to the joint venture members. Accordingly, in the event of a default on the term loans, the lenders may only look to the resources of GeneSYS for repayment. The debt will never be repayable from assets of the company beyond its gross $17 million equity investment plus any un-remitted profits in the venture.
     The contract has been segmented between the E&C and O&M portions of the work to be performed. The E&C portion of the work will be accounted for using contract accounting revenue recognition principles. Revenue in connection with O&M services including on-demand services will be recognized as earned through the life of the contract.
     Guarantees In the ordinary course of business, the company enters into various agreements providing financial or performance assurances to clients on behalf of certain unconsolidated joint ventures and other jointly- executed contracts. These agreements are entered into primarily to support the project execution commitments of these entities. The guarantees have various expiration dates ranging from mechanical completion of the facilities being constructed to a period extending beyond contract completion in certain circumstances. The maximum potential payment amount of an outstanding performance guarantee is the remaining cost of work to be performed by or on behalf of third parties under engineering and construction contracts. The amount of guarantees outstanding measured on this basis totals $2.4 billion as of December 31, 2005. Amounts that may be required to be paid in excess of estimated costs to complete contracts in progress are not estimable. For cost reimbursable contracts, amounts that may become payable pursuant to guarantee provisions are normally recoverable from the client for work performed under the contract. For lump sum or fixed price contracts, the amount payable under a guarantee is the cost to complete the contracted work less amounts remaining to be billed to the client under the contract. Remaining

36


Table of Contents

billable amounts could be greater or less than the cost to complete. In those cases where costs exceed the remaining amounts payable under the contract the company may have recourse to third parties, such as owners, co-venturers, subcontractors or vendors for claims.
     Financial guarantees, made in the ordinary course of business on behalf of clients and others in certain limited circumstances, are entered into with financial institutions and other credit grantors and generally obligate the company to make payment in the event of a default by the borrower. Most arrangements require the borrower to pledge collateral in the form of property, plant and equipment which is deemed adequate to recover amounts the company might be required to pay. As of December 31, 2005, the company had extended financial guarantees on behalf of certain clients and other unrelated third parties totaling approximately $9.7 million, including a recognized amount of $5.3 million associated with a guarantee of pollution control bonds related to zinc operations that were sold in 1987.
     Inflation Although inflation and cost trends affect the company, its engineering and construction operations are generally protected by the ability to fix costs at the time of bidding or to recover cost increases in cost reimbursable contracts. The company has taken actions to reduce its dependence on external economic conditions; however, management is unable to predict with certainty the amount and mix of future business.
Item 7A.   Quantitative and Qualitative Discussions about Market Risk
     The company invests excess cash in short-term securities that carry a floating money market rate of return. Additionally, a substantial portion of the company’s cash balances are maintained in foreign countries. Debt instruments carry a fixed rate coupon on all long-term debt. The company’s exposure to interest rate risk on its long-term debt is not material due to the low fixed interest rates on the obligations. However, commercial paper, when outstanding, is issued at current short-term interest rates, which could increase in the future.
     The company does not currently use derivatives, such as swaps, to alter the interest characteristics of its short-term securities or its debt instruments. The company generally utilizes currency options and forward exchange contracts to hedge foreign currency transactions entered into in the ordinary course of business and does not engage in currency speculation. At December 31, 2005, the company had forward foreign exchange contracts of less than 15 months duration, to exchange major world currencies for U.S. dollars. The total gross notional amount of these contracts at December 31, 2005 was $52 million.
     Beginning in 2003 and continuing through 2004, exchange rates for functional currencies for most of the company’s international operations strengthened against the U.S. dollar, resulting in unrealized translation gains that are reflected in the cumulative translation component of other comprehensive income. This trend reversed during 2005 and unrealized translation losses occurred. Most of these unrealized gains or losses relate to cash balances held in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Because it is expected that most of this cash will be used for project execution expenditures in the currency in which it is held, the risk of realized translation losses is mitigated.
     In 2001, the company issued a warrant for the purchase of 460,000 shares, at $36.06 per share, of the company’s common stock to a partner in the company’s e-commerce procurement venture. Any compensation realized by the holder through exercise of the warrant will offset any royalties otherwise payable under a five-year cooperation and services agreement.

FLUOR CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON
INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
The management of the company is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for the assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. The company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
The company’s internal control over financial reporting is supported by written policies and procedures that:
    pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the company’s assets;
 
    provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated 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 the company’s management and directors; and
 
    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 consolidated financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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.
In connection with the preparation of the company’s annual consolidated financial statements, management of the company has undertaken an assessment of the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“the COSO Framework”). Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of the company’s internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Based on this assessment, management has concluded that the company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2005.
Ernst & Young LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited the company’s consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, has issued an attestation report on management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting which appears on the following page.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Board of Directors and Shareholders of Fluor Corporation
We have audited management’s assessment, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, that Fluor Corporation maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). Fluor Corporation’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. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 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, evaluating management’s assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
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.
In our opinion, management’s assessment that Fluor Corporation maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the COSO criteria. Also, in our opinion, Fluor Corporation maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, cash flows, and shareholders’ equity for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005 of Fluor Corporation and our report dated February 28, 2006 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Board of Directors and Shareholders of Fluor Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Fluor Corporation as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, cash flows, and shareholders’ equity for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005. These financial statements are the responsibility of the company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Fluor Corporation at December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005, 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), the effectiveness of Fluor Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 28, 2006 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

FLUOR CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Major Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
     The financial statements include the accounts of the company and its subsidiaries. The equity method of accounting is used for investment ownership ranging from 20 percent to 50 percent. Investment ownership of less than 20 percent is accounted for on the cost method. Certain contracts are executed jointly through partnerships and joint ventures with unrelated third parties. The company recognizes its proportional share of venture revenues, costs and operating profits in its Consolidated Statement of Earnings and generally uses the one-line equity method of accounting in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The company evaluates the applicability of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 46 (Revised), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (see Financing Arrangements) to partnerships and joint ventures at the inception of its participation to ensure its accounting is in accordance with the appropriate standards.
     All significant intercompany transactions of consolidated subsidiaries are eliminated. Certain amounts in 2003 and 2004 have been reclassified to conform with the 2005 presentation.
Use of Estimates
     The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements. Therefore, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
     Cash and cash equivalents include securities with maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase. Securities with maturities beyond 90 days, when present, are classified as marketable securities within current assets and are carried at fair value.
Engineering and Construction Contracts
     The company recognizes engineering and construction contract revenues using the percentage-of-completion method, based primarily on contract costs incurred to date compared with total estimated contract costs. Customer-furnished materials, labor and equipment, and in certain cases subcontractor materials, labor and equipment, are included in revenues and cost of revenues when management believes that the company is responsible for the ultimate acceptability of the project. Contracts are segmented between types of services, such as engineering and construction, and accordingly, gross margin related to each activity is recognized as those separate services are rendered. Changes to total estimated contract costs or losses, if any, are recognized in the period in which they are determined. Revenues recognized in excess of amounts billed are classified as current assets under contract work in progress. Amounts billed to clients in excess of revenues recognized to date are classified as current liabilities under advance billings on contracts. The company anticipates that substantially all incurred costs associated with contract work in progress at December 31, 2005 will be billed and collected in 2006. The company recognizes certain significant claims for recovery of incurred costs when it is probable that the claim will result in additional contract revenue and when the amount of the claim can be reliably estimated. Unapproved change orders are accounted for in revenue and cost when it is probable that the costs will be recovered through a change in the contract price. In circumstances where recovery is considered probable but the revenues cannot be reliably estimated, costs attributable to change orders are deferred pending determination of contract price.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
Depreciation and Amortization
     Additions to property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Assets are depreciated principally using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: buildings and improvements — six to 40 years and machinery and equipment — one to 10 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their economic lives or the lease terms.
     Goodwill is not amortized but is subject to annual impairment tests. For purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to the applicable reporting units based on the current reporting structure. During 2005, the company completed its annual goodwill impairment tests in the first quarter and has determined that none of the goodwill is impaired.
     Intangibles arising from business acquisitions are amortized over the useful lives of those assets, ranging from one to nine years.
Income Taxes
     Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the company’s financial statements or tax returns.
Earnings Per Share
     Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) are calculated by dividing earnings from continuing operations, loss from discontinued operations, cumulative effect of change in accounting principle and net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the assumed conversion of all dilutive securities, using the treasury stock method. Potentially dilutive securities outstanding include employee stock options and restricted stock, a warrant for the purchase of 460,000 shares and the 1.5 percent Convertible Senior Notes (see Financing Arrangements below for information about the Notes.)
     For the year ended December 31, 2005 there were no antidilutive securities outstanding. For the year ended December 31, 2004, 900 shares of unvested restricted stock were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because these securities are antidilutive. Antidilutive options and unvested restricted stock not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2003 were 887,381 and 17,403, respectively.
     Dilutive securities included in the company’s diluted EPS calculation are as follows:
                         
    Year Ended December 31
(shares in thousands)   2005   2004   2003
 
Employee stock options and restricted stock
    1,007       1,157       738

Warrant
    186       76       5  
 
 
    1,836       1,233       743  
 
Derivatives and Hedging
     The company uses currency options and forward exchange contracts to hedge certain foreign currency transactions entered into in the ordinary course of business. At December 31, 2005, the company had approximately $52 million of forward exchange contracts outstanding relating to engineering and construction contract obligations. The company does not engage in currency speculation. The forward exchange contracts generally require the

F-10

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
company to exchange U.S. dollars for foreign currencies at maturity, at rates agreed to at inception of the contracts. If the counterparties to the exchange contracts do not fulfill their obligations to deliver the contracted currencies, the company could be at risk for any currency related fluctuations. The contracts are of varying duration, none of which extend beyond March 2007. The company formally documents its hedge relationships at the inception of the agreements, including identification of the hedging instruments and the hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge transaction. The company also formally assesses both at inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in the fair value of the hedged items. All existing fair value hedges are determined to be highly effective. As a result, the impact to earnings due to hedge ineffectiveness is immaterial for 2005, 2004 and 2003.
     The company limits exposure to foreign currency fluctuations in most of its engineering and construction contracts through provisions that require client payments in U.S. dollars or other currencies corresponding to the currency in which costs are incurred. As a result, the company generally does not need to hedge foreign currency cash flows for contract work performed. Under certain limited circumstances, such foreign currency payment provisions could be deemed embedded derivatives under SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended (SFAS 133). As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, the company had no significant embedded derivatives in any of its contracts.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
     The majority of 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. The company generally does not require collateral, but in most cases can place liens against the property, plant or equipment constructed or terminate the contract if a material default occurs. The company maintains adequate reserves for potential credit losses and such losses have been minimal and within management’s estimates.
Stock Plans
     The company accounts for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related Interpretations (“APB 25”), as permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”). Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the company’s stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. All unvested options outstanding under the company’s option plans have grant prices equal to the market price of the company’s stock on the date of grant. Compensation cost for restricted stock is determined based on the fair value of the stock at the date of grant. Compensation cost for stock appreciation rights and performance equity units is determined based on the quoted market price of the company’s stock at the end of the period.
     In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS 123-R, “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123-R), which is a revision of SFAS 123. SFAS 123-R supersedes APB 25 and amends SFAS 95, “Statement of Cash Flows.” Generally, the approach in SFAS 123-R is similar to the approach described in SFAS 123. However, SFAS 123-R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Upon adoption of SFAS 123-R, pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative.
     The provisions of SFAS 123-R apply to awards granted after the required effective date of the statement, which is no later than January 1, 2006 for the company. Initial application to existing unvested stock option awards may be based on either a modified prospective method or a modified retrospective method. The method of application selected by the company will determine which, if any, previously reported operating results will be restated for

comparative purposes. Based on unvested options outstanding at December 31, 2005, the adoption of SFAS 123-R’s fair value method will not have a material impact on results of operations and will have no impact on overall financial position.
     SFAS 123-R also requires the benefits of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation cost to be reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as an operating cash flow as currently required. This requirement will generally impact cash provided or utilized by operating activities with equal offset in cash flows from financing activities in periods after adoption. While the company cannot estimate what those amounts will be in the future (because they depend on, among other things, when employees exercise stock options), the amounts of operating cash flows recognized for such excess tax deductions were $17 million, $14 million and $4 million in the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
     Currently under APB 25, no compensation cost is recognized for unvested stock options where the grant price is equal to the market price on the date of grant and the vesting provisions are based only on the passage of time. Had the company recorded compensation expense using the accounting method recommended by SFAS 123, net earnings and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts as follows:

     The company has not historically considered retirement eligibility in determining stock-based compensation expense, including expense associated with stock options and restricted stock. The adoption of SFAS 123-R will require the company to assume the first date on which an employee becomes eligible to retire in determining the amortization period for future stock-based awards. For example, if the employee is eligible for retirement two years from the date of grant, the amortization period will be no longer than two years rather than the specified service period over which awards normally vest. Upon adoption of FAS 123-R retirement eligibility will be considered in the determination of periodic expense on a prospective basis for all future stock-based awards. Prior periods or amounts previously recognized will not be adjusted or restated. Compensation expense associated with awards granted in prior periods will continue to be recognized using historical amortization practices.
     The impact of using retirement eligibility in determining stock option expense would have been to decrease the pro forma adjustments by approximately 70 percent for 2005, approximately 60 percent for 2004 and approximately 15 percent for 2003, with offsetting increases in preceding years. The impact of using retirement eligibility to determine amortization periods on previously recorded restricted stock amortization for 2005 and 2004 would have been to increase restricted stock amortization expense by approximately one-third and to increase restricted stock amortization expense by approximately one-fourth for 2003.

     For the years 2005, 2004 and 2003, recognized compensation expense of $18.5 million, $16.0 million and $12.5 million, respectively, is included in corporate administrative and general expense related to restricted stock.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
     SFAS 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components in the consolidated financial statements. The company reports the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments and adjustments related to recognition of minimum pension liabilities as components of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). At December 31, 2005, accumulated other comprehensive income represents cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments of $9.1 million (net of deferred taxes of $5.7 million).
     Beginning in 2003 and continuing through 2004, exchange rates for functional currencies for most of the company’s international operations strengthened against the U.S. dollar resulting in unrealized translation gains that are reflected in the cumulative translation component of other comprehensive income. This trend reversed during 2005 and unrealized translation losses occurred. Most of these unrealized gains or losses relate to cash balances held in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.
Relocation of Corporate Headquarters
     On May 10, 2005, the company announced its decision to relocate its corporate headquarters from Southern California to the Dallas/Fort Worth metropolitan area. This move is expected to improve operational efficiency and position the company to more effectively serve its global client base. Of the approximately 390 headquarters staff located in Aliso Viejo, California on May 10, 2005, approximately 200 employees will either stay in Southern California or move to other U.S. office locations. Approximately 80 employees from Southern California and other company locations will relocate to the new Texas headquarters where approximately 100 additional employees are expected to be hired. Approximately 130 employees will leave the company as a result of the move.
     The cost of employee displacements is being accrued ratably starting in the third quarter of 2005 through the anticipated date of the Southern California headquarters office closure in the second quarter of 2006. All other relocation and hiring costs are charged to expense as incurred.
     For the year ended December 31, 2005, corporate administrative expenses include $5.7 million for relocation costs, which comprises the accrual of employee displacement costs and other direct expenses. Additional employee relocation and hiring costs and facility relocation costs totaling approximately $19 million are expected to be incurred during 2006, which will also be included in corporate administrative and general expense.
     The existing corporate facility in Aliso Viejo was sold in September 2005. A short-term, market rate lease-back has been negotiated with the buyer that will allow the company to continue to occupy the facility for up to 18 months. The cost of the new Texas headquarters is expected to approximate $60 million and will be paid from available cash resources including proceeds from the sale of the current headquarters facility.
Discontinued Operations
     In September 2001, the Board of Directors approved a plan to dispose of certain non-core elements of the company’s construction equipment and temporary staffing operations. In June 2003, the company completed the sale of the last equipment dealership operation resulting in cash proceeds of $31.9 million, which approximated its carrying value. Prior to completion of the sale, the company recorded an additional after-tax impairment provision in the first quarter of 2003 of $13.5 million, which included adjustments to deferred taxes, to recognize further deterioration in its fair value due to continued severely depressed conditions in the equipment rental industry.

     Revenue, earnings and loss on disposal for all discontinued operations during 2003 were $30.1 million, $1.5 million and $13.1 million, respectively. There have been no results of operations reported as discontinued operations for any period subsequent to June 30, 2003.
Business Investments and Acquisitions
     From time to time, the company enters into investment arrangements, including joint ventures, that are related to its engineering and construction business.
     In January 2003, the company acquired Del-Jen, Inc. (“Del-Jen”), a leading provider of services to the Departments of Defense and Labor. The acquisition expanded the company’s ability to provide services in the government outsourcing market and is reported in the company’s Government segment. Del-Jen was acquired for $33.3 million in cash. In connection with this acquisition, the company recorded goodwill of $24.0 million and intangible assets of $3.2 million. The intangible assets are being amortized over useful lives ranging from three to seven years.
     In March 2003, the company acquired five specialty operations and maintenance (“O&M”) business groups from Philip Services Corporation. The acquired businesses, which have been named Plant Performance Services (“P2S”), expand and strengthen the O&M services business component of the Global Services segment and complement the company’s core engineering, procurement, and construction business. The business groups were acquired for $21.2 million in cash. The seller retained the working capital for these businesses. Acquisition cost in excess of tangible assets acquired amounted to $11.5 million (goodwill of $8.7 million and intangible assets of $2.8 million). The intangible assets are being amortized over useful lives ranging from one to five years.
     In November 2003, the company acquired the International Division of J.A. Jones Construction Company (J.A. Jones), which provides design-build and construction services to the U.S. Government. This acquisition further expanded the company’s portfolio of government business. J.A. Jones has been renamed J.A. Jones International, LLC and is reported in the Government segment. The acquisition did not have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial statements.
     In February 2004, Del-Jen acquired Trend Western Technical Corporation, a provider of logistics and operations services to military bases in the United States and Guam for $33.0 million in cash. This acquisition further enhances the company’s ability to serve the federal government marketplace and expands the service offering and the international reach of Del-Jen. The company recorded goodwill of $18.0 million and intangible assets of $10.0 million. The intangible assets are being amortized over useful lives ranging from four to nine years. The acquisition did not have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial statements.
     The company’s consolidated financial statements include the operating results of these businesses from the dates of acquisition. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented because the effects of these acquisitions were not material on either an individual or aggregate basis to the company’s consolidated results of operations.

     The company has U.S. and non-U.S. net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $36 million and $45 million, respectively, at December 31, 2005. The utilization of the U.S. losses are subject to certain limitations. Of the $36 million U.S. losses, $10 million will expire in the year 2020 and $26 million will expire in year 2021. The non-U.S. losses largely relate to the company’s operations in Chile, Germany, Indonesia, Ireland, Spain and Malaysia. Of the $45 million non-U.S. losses, $34 million can be carried forward indefinitely while $2 million will expire in 2010, $3 million will expire in 2020 and the remaining $6 million, representing the aggregate total of several amounts each of which is immaterial, will expire between 2006 and 2012 in various jurisdictions.
     The company has U.S. and non-U.S. capital loss carryforwards of approximately $14 million and $13 million, respectively, at December 31, 2005. The U.S. capital loss will expire in 2006 whereas the non-U.S. losses may be carried forward indefinitely. At December 31, 2005, the company no longer had any tax credit carryforwards.
     The company maintains a valuation allowance to reduce certain deferred tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be realized. This allowance primarily relates to the deferred tax assets established for certain net operating and capital loss carryforwards for U.S. and non-U.S. subsidiaries, and certain reserves on investments. The utilization of the tax credit carryforwards, which was partially offset by the additional valuation allowance established for certain non-U.S. net operating losses, resulted in a net decrease of $17 million in the valuation allowance as of December 31, 2005.
     Until 2005, residual income taxes of approximately $5 million were not provided on approximately $14 million of undistributed earnings of a foreign joint venture because the company intended to keep those earnings reinvested overseas indefinitely. During 2005, the company reviewed its intent with respect to such foreign earnings and decided to forego this permanent reinvestment plan. Accordingly, the 2005 income tax expense reflects the $5 million tax effect on these earnings.
     United States and foreign earnings from continuing operations before taxes are as follows:
                         
    Year Ended December 31
(in thousands)   2005   2004   2003

Total
  $ 299,582     $ 281,158     $ 267,981  
 
     The decrease in United States earnings from operations during 2004 was principally the result of the decline in profitability of the Power segment, which continued into 2005.
Retirement Benefits
     The company sponsors contributory and non-contributory defined contribution retirement and defined benefit pension plans for eligible employees. Contributions to defined contribution retirement plans are based on a percentage of the employee’s compensation. Expense recognized for these plans of approximately $51 million, $45 million and $48 million in the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 respectively, is primarily related to domestic engineering and construction operations. Contributions to defined benefit pension plans are generally at the minimum annual amount required by applicable regulations. During 2005, the company contributed $21.5 million to the domestic defined benefit cash balance plan and an aggregate $67.7 million to non-U.S. pension plans, including $60 million to fully-fund the accumulated benefit obligations in one plan. Payments to retired employees under these plans are generally based upon length of service, age and/or a percentage of qualifying compensation. The defined benefit pension plans are primarily related to domestic and international engineering and construction salaried employees and U.S. craft employees.

     During the third quarter of 2005, the company implemented a plan design change to a non-U.S. defined benefit plan, retroactive to January 1, 2005 and revised certain assumptions for the plan. The impact of these changes was a reduction of $7.7 million to net periodic pension expense for the current year.
     Net periodic pension expense for continuing operations defined benefit pension plans includes the following components:
                         
    Year Ended December 31  
(in thousands)   2005     2004     2003

Net periodic pension expense
  $ 35,910     $ 45,149     $ 51,838  
 
     The ranges of assumptions indicated below cover defined benefit pension plans in Australia, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and the United States. These assumptions are based on the then current economic environment in each host country at the end of each respective annual reporting period. The company uses December 31 as the measurement date for its plans.
                         
    December 31    
    2005   2004   2003
 
For determining benefit obligations at year-end:
                       
Discount rates
    4.00-5.50 %     5.00-6.00 %     5.50-6.00 %
Rates of increase in compensation levels
    3.00-4.00 %     3.00-4.00 %     3.00-4.00 %
 
                       
For determining net periodic cost for the year:
                       
Discount rates
    5.00-5.75 %     5.00-6.00 %     5.50-7.00 %
Rates of increase in compensation levels
    3.00-4.00 %     3.00-4.00 %     3.00-4.00 %
Expected long-term rates of return on assets
    5.00-8.00 %     5.00-8.00 %     5.00-8.00 %
 
     The company evaluates the funded status of each of its retirement plans using the above assumptions and determines the appropriate funding level considering applicable regulatory requirements, tax deductibility, reporting considerations and other factors. An extended period of low long-term interest rates has had the effect of increasing plan liabilities and if expected long-term returns on plan assets are not achieved, future funding obligations could increase substantially. Assuming no changes in current assumptions, the company expects to fund approximately $35 million to $70 million for the calendar year 2006. If the discount rate were reduced by 25 basis points, plan liabilities would increase by approximately $29 million. Determination of the discount rate includes consideration of yield curves on non-callable high quality bonds having maturities that are consistent with the expected timing of future payments to plan participants.

     The investment of assets in defined benefit plans is based on the expected long-term capital market outlook. Asset return assumptions utilizing historical returns, correlations and investment manager forecasts are established for each major asset category including public domestic, international and global equities, private equities and government, corporate and emerging market debt. Investment allocations are determined by each Plan’s Investment Committee and/or Trustees. Long-term allocation guidelines are set and expressed in terms of a target and target range allocation for each asset class to provide portfolio management flexibility. The asset allocation is diversified to maintain risk at a reasonable level without sacrificing return. Factors including the future growth in the number of plan participants and forecasted benefit obligations, inflation and the rate of salary increases are also considered in developing asset allocations and target return assumptions. In the case of certain foreign plans, asset allocations may be governed by local requirements. While most of the company’s plans are not prohibited from investing in the company’s capital stock, there are no such directed investments at the present time.
     The following benefit payments for defined benefit pension plans, which reflect expected future service, as appropriate, are expected to be paid:

     In addition to the company’s defined benefit pension plans, the company and certain of its subsidiaries provide health care and life insurance benefits for certain retired employees. The health care and life insurance plans are generally contributory, with retiree contributions adjusted annually. Service costs are accrued currently. The accumulated postretirement benefit obligation at December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 was determined in accordance with the current terms of the company’s health care plans, together with relevant actuarial assumptions and health care cost trend rates projected at annual rates ranging from 9 percent in 2006 down to 5 percent in 2011 and beyond. The effect of a 1 percent annual increase in these assumed cost trend rates would increase the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation and the aggregate of the annual service and interest costs by approximately $1.6 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The effect of a 1 percent annual decrease in these assumed cost trend rates would decrease the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation and the aggregate of the annual service and interest costs by approximately $1.5 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

     The discount rate used in determining the postretirement benefit obligation was 5.5 percent at December 31, 2005, 5.75 percent at December 31, 2004 and 6.00 percent at December 31, 2003. The discount rate used for postretirement obligations is determined based on the same considerations discussed above that impact defined benefit plans in the United States. Benefit payments, as offset by employee contributions, are not expected to change significantly in the future.
     On December 8, 2003, the Medicare Prescription Drug Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (the “Act”) was signed into law. The Act introduced a prescription drug benefit under Medicare (Medicare Part D) and a federal subsidy to sponsors of retirement health care plans that provide a benefit that is at least actuarially equivalent to Medicare Part D. In May 2004, the FASB issued Staff Position 106-2, “Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003” (FSP 106-2) providing guidance on accounting for the effects of the Act and specific disclosure requirements. Based on an analysis of the Act, the company has concluded that its retiree medical plans provide benefits that are at least actuarially equivalent to Medicare Part D. The company adopted the provisions of FSP 106-2 as of July 1, 2004 and recorded the effects of the subsidy in measuring net periodic postretirement benefit cost during the quarter ended September 30, 2004. This resulted in a reduction in the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation for the subsidy related to benefits attributed to past service of $4.9 million at December 31, 2005 and $2.9 million at December 31, 2004 and a pretax reduction in net periodic postretirement benefit costs of $0.8 million for 2005 and $0.3 million for the second half of 2004.
     The preceding information does not include amounts related to benefit plans applicable to employees associated with certain contracts with the U.S. Department of Energy because the company is not responsible for the current or future funded status of these plans.

     Fair values were determined as follows:
  The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, short-term notes receivable, commercial paper, loan notes and notes payable approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.
  Long-term investments are based on quoted market prices for these or similar instruments. Long-term notes receivable are estimated by discounting future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings.
  The fair value of debt obligations is estimated based on quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or on the current rates offered to the company for debt of the same maturities.
  Other noncurrent financial liabilities consist primarily of deferred payments, for which cost approximates fair value.
  Foreign currency contracts are estimated by obtaining quotes from brokers.
  Letters of credit and lines of credit amounts are based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate or settle the obligations.
Financing Arrangements
     In July 2004, the company entered into a new, five-year, $800 million Senior Credit Facility. Of the total capacity, $300 million is dedicated to commercial paper back-up lines. The balance is available for letters of credit and funded loans. Borrowings on committed lines bear interest at rates based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus an applicable borrowing margin, or the prime rate. At December 31, 2005, no amounts were outstanding for commercial paper or funded loans. At December 31, 2004, $129.9 million of commercial paper was outstanding.

     The company has a total of $976 million of committed and uncommitted lines of credit to support letters of credit. At December 31, 2005, $61 million of these lines of credit were used to support outstanding letters of credit. In addition, the company has $542 million in uncommitted lines for general cash management purposes.
     During 2005, the company issued commercial paper at a discount with a weighted average effective interest rate of 2.94 percent.

     In February 2004, the company issued $330 million of 1.5% Convertible Senior Notes due February 15, 2024 and received proceeds of $323 million, net of underwriting discounts. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year. On or after February 17, 2005, the notes are convertible into shares of the company’s common stock at a conversion rate of 17.875 shares per each $1,000 principal amount of notes at an initial conversion price of $55.94 per share, if (a) the closing price of the company’s common stock exceeds a specified trigger price for a specified period of time, (b) the company calls the notes for redemption or (c) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions. Additionally, conversion of the notes may occur only during the fiscal quarter immediately following the quarter in which the trigger price is achieved. Upon conversion, the company initially had the right to deliver, in lieu of common stock, cash or a combination of cash and shares of the company’s stock but, as discussed below, has subsequently irrevocably elected to pay the principal in cash. During the fourth quarter of 2005, the trigger price was achieved for the specified number of days and the notes have therefore been classified as short-term debt as of December 31, 2005.
     Holders of notes may require the company to purchase all or a portion of their notes on February 15, 2009, February 15, 2014 and February 15, 2019 at 100 percent of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. After February 16, 2009, the notes are redeemable at the option of the company, in whole or in part, at 100 percent of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. In the event of a change of control of Fluor, each holder may require the company to repurchase the notes for cash, in whole or in part, at 100 percent of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest.
     In September 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) reached a final consensus on Issue No. 04-8, “The Effect of Contingently Convertible Debt on Diluted Earnings per Share” (“Issue 04-8”). Contingently convertible debt instruments (commonly referred to as Co-Cos) are financial instruments that add a contingent feature to a convertible debt instrument. The conversion feature is triggered when one or more specified contingencies occur and at least one of these contingencies is based on market price. Prior to the issuance of the final consensus on Issue 04-8 by the EITF, the company applied a widely held interpretation that SFAS 128, “Earnings per Share,” allowed the exclusion of common shares underlying contingently convertible debt instruments from the calculation of diluted EPS in instances where conversion depends on the achievement of a specified market price of the issuer’s shares.
     Issue 04-8 requires that these underlying common shares be included in the diluted EPS computations, if dilutive, regardless of whether the market price contingency or any other contingent factor has been met. However, principal amounts that must be settled entirely in cash may be excluded from the computations. On December 30, 2004, the company irrevocably elected to pay the principal amount of the convertible debentures in cash, and, therefore, there is no dilutive impact on EPS unless the average stock price exceeds the conversion price of $55.94.

FLUOR CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
During 2005, the conversion price was exceeded at the end of the second, third and fourth quarters. Accordingly, the treasury stock method of accounting has been used for the excess of the closing market stock price at the end of each reporting period over $55.94 in calculating diluted EPS. Upon conversion, any stock appreciation amount above the conversion price of $55.94 will be satisfied by the company through the issuance of common stock which thereafter will be included in calculating both basic and diluted EPS.
     The company has engaged in certain transactions involving variable interest entities. In December 2003, the FASB issued a revised Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (FIN 46-R). FIN 46-R provides the principles to consider in determining when variable interest entities must be consolidated in the financial statements of the primary beneficiary. In general, a variable interest entity is an entity used for business purposes that either (a) does not have equity investors with voting rights or (b) has equity investors that are not required to provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities without additional subordinated financial support. FIN 46-R requires a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity’s activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity’s residual returns or both. A company that consolidates a variable interest entity is called the primary beneficiary of that entity.
     See National Roads Telecommunications Services Project appearing on page F-32 for a discussion relating to non-recourse term loans and equity bridge financing for a joint venture that has been consolidated during 2005.
     Certain of the company’s engineering office facilities, located in Aliso Viejo, California and Calgary, Canada, were leased through arrangements involving variable interest entities. Beginning in the first quarter of 2003, the company consolidated these entities in its financial statements as prescribed by FIN 46-R. None of the terms of the leasing arrangements or the company’s obligations as a lessee were impacted by this change in accounting. The cumulative impact of the difference in earnings, amounting to a charge of $10.4 million net of tax, relating to prior years was reported in the first quarter of 2003 as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle.
     During 2004, the company exercised its options to purchase both the Aliso Viejo ($100 million) and Calgary ($29 million) engineering and office facilities. These amounts are reported as repayments of facilities financing in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
     The Municipal bonds are due June 1, 2019 with interest payable semiannually on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing December 1, 1999. The bonds are redeemable, in whole or in part, at the option of the company at a redemption price ranging from 100 percent to 102 percent of the principal amount of the bonds on or after June 1, 2009. In addition, the bonds are subject to other redemption clauses, at the option of the holder, should certain events occur, as defined in the offering prospectus.
     In December 2004, the company filed a “shelf” registration statement for the issuance of up to $500 million of any combination of debt securities or common stock, the proceeds from which could be used for debt retirement, the funding of working capital requirements or other corporate purposes. The company has entered into a distribution agreement for up to two million shares of common stock. During 2005, the company sold 758,367 shares under this distribution agreement, realizing net proceeds of $41.8 million.
Other Noncurrent Liabilities
     The company maintains appropriate levels of insurance for business risks. Insurance coverages contain various retention amounts for which the company provides accruals based on the aggregate of the liability for reported claims and an actuarially determined estimated liability for claims incurred but not reported. Other noncurrent liabilities include $13 million and $16 million at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, relating to these liabilities. For certain professional liability risks the company’s retention amount under its claims-made insurance policies does not include an accrual for claims incurred but not reported because there is insufficient claims history

or other reliable basis to support an estimated liability. The company believes that retained professional liability amounts are manageable risks and are not expected to have a material adverse impact on results of operations or financial position.
     The company has deferred compensation and retirement arrangements for certain key executives which generally provide for payments upon retirement, death or termination of employment. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, $272 million and $246 million were accrued under these plans and included in noncurrent liabilities.
     At December 31, 2004, $34 million was included in noncurrent liabilities relating to the minimum pension liability for a non-U.S. plan. No similar obligation existed at December 31, 2005 due to funding during the year.
Stock Plans
     The company’s executive stock plans provide for grants of nonqualified or incentive stock options, restricted stock awards and stock appreciation rights (“SARS”). All executive stock plans are administered by the Organization and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (“Committee”) comprised of outside directors, none of whom are eligible to participate in the plans. Option grant prices are determined by the Committee and are established at the fair value of the company’s common stock at the date of grant. Options and SARS normally extend for 10 years and become exercisable over a vesting period determined by the Committee, which can include accelerated vesting for achievement of performance or stock price objectives.
     During the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, the company issued no stock options or SARS as part of its executive incentive program. During the year ended December 31, 2003, the company issued 1,085,950 nonqualified stock options and 51,500 SARS with annual vesting of 25 percent.
     Restricted stock awards issued under the plans provide that shares awarded may not be sold or otherwise transferred until restrictions have lapsed and any performance objectives have been attained as established by the Committee. Upon termination of employment, shares upon which restrictions have not lapsed must be returned to the company. Restricted stock granted under the plans totaled 487,905 shares, 671,050 shares and 1,079,813 shares in the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The weighted-average grant date fair value of restricted stock granted during the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 was $53, $38 and $29 per share, respectively. Recorded compensation cost, net of tax, for restricted stock plans totaled $14 million, $11 million and $8 million for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
     For purposes of calculating the proforma stock-based compensation expense as presented in the table on page F-12, weighted-average assumptions of five years for expected option lives, 3 percent for the risk-free interest rate, 2.21 percent for the expected dividend yield and 42.06 percent for expected volatility were used for new grants in 2003. No new grants were made in 2005 or 2004.
     The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant by using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The weighted-average fair value of options granted during the year ended December 31, 2003 was $9 per share.

Contingencies and Commitments
     The company and certain of its subsidiaries are involved in litigation in the ordinary course of business. The company and certain of its subsidiaries are contingently liable for commitments and performance guarantees arising in the ordinary course of business. Clients have made claims arising from engineering and construction contracts against the company, and the company has made claims against clients for costs incurred in excess of the current contract provisions. Recognized claims against clients amounted to $144 million and $105 million at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Amounts ultimately realized from claims could differ materially from the balances included in the financial statements. The company does not expect that claim recoveries will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.
     As of December 31, 2005, several matters on certain completed and in progress projects are in the dispute resolution process. The following discussion provides a background and current status of these matters:
Hamaca Crude Upgrader
     During the third quarter of 2005, the company settled all outstanding claims with the owners’ consortium on the Hamaca Crude Upgrader Project in Jose, Venezuela. The pending arbitration proceedings have been dismissed. The settlement reimbursed the company for its incurred costs arising from change orders on the project and for its cost of capital in funding those incurred costs. The settlement was recognized in revenue and resulted in an increase of $30.5 million in pre-tax earnings in the Oil & Gas segment.
Ritz Carlton Cayman Islands
     On June 23, 2005, Fluor Daniel Caribbean, Inc. (“FD Caribbean”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the company, received an unfavorable jury verdict awarding $28.8 million to the developer of a resort hotel project in the Caribbean. FD Caribbean was the general contractor on the project, which is located in the Cayman Islands. As a consequence, the company recorded a $65 million charge in its second quarter to recognize the jury award, estimated attorney fees and pre-judgment interest, and reversal of previously billed accounts receivable for work performed on the project. At the time of the original jury decision, the company strongly believed the verdict was not supported by the facts or by applicable law. On September 15, 2005, the judge who tried the case granted the company’s motion for a new trial, setting aside the unfavorable verdict in its totality. On September 29, 2005, in lieu of a new trial, the parties have stipulated to a judgment of no liability in favor of either side, and the action has been dismissed with prejudice.
     The financial impact in the third quarter of 2005 is a reversal of the jury award including estimated interest and attorney fees totaling $32.9 million. The reversal restores the company’s ability to absorb foreign taxes incurred in high tax jurisdictions, resulting in the recognition of foreign tax credits that could not previously be utilized.

Infrastructure Joint Venture Project
     The company participates in a 50/50 joint venture that is executing a fixed-price transportation infrastructure project in California. The project continues to be subject to circumstances including owner-directed scope changes leading to quantity growth, cost escalation, and additional labor, and resulting in additional costs due to schedule delays. The company continues to evaluate the impact of these circumstances on estimated total project costs, as well as claims for recoveries and other contingencies on the project. During 2005 and 2004, provisions of $24 million and $28 million, respectively, were recorded due to these increasing estimated costs. While the estimate of total project costs is based on the final design including changes directed by the client, any future changes in these estimates will be recognized when identified.
     To date, the joint venture has submitted claims totaling approximately $112 million to the client. Costs totaling $28.7 million have been incurred by the joint venture against these claims as of December 31, 2005 and the company has recognized its $14.4 million proportionate share of these costs in revenue.
London Connect Project
     The company is involved in arbitration proceedings in connection with its London Connect Project (“LUL”), a $500 million lump sum project to design and install a telecommunications network that allows reception and transmissions throughout the London Underground system. In February 2005, the company sought relief through arbitration proceedings for two issues. First, the company is seeking relief for the overall delay and disruption to the project that relates to the contract time period of 2001 through 2003. The arbitration hearing on this matter is scheduled to commence in May 2006. In addition, a claim for delay and disruption subsequent to 2003 will be submitted to the dispute resolution process shortly. The total costs incurred amounting to $44 million relating to delay and disruption for the entire contract period have been recognized as claims. The second issue concerns the responsibility for enabling the various train stock to accept the new telecommunication network equipment. Hearings involving LUL, the company and Motorola, a subcontractor, are completed and the parties await the arbitration award.
Embassy Projects
     The company has 11 embassy projects that are in various stages of completion under contracts with the United States Department of State. The company has recognized losses totaling $56 million in 2005 due to unanticipated circumstances on four of these projects. These projects have been adversely impacted by higher costs due to scope changes, unexpected execution problems, increases in material cost and subcontractor difficulties. Claims for equitable adjustment on seven of these projects totaling approximately $77.5 million have been identified to date and as of December 31, 2005, $44.3 million in costs relating to these claims have been incurred and recognized in revenue. Additional claim recoveries continue to be evaluated.
Fluor Daniel International and Fluor Arabia Ltd. V. General Electric Company, et al
U.S.D.C., Southern District Court, New York
     In October 1998, Fluor Daniel International and Fluor Arabia Ltd. filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against General Electric Company and certain operating subsidiaries as well as Saudi American General Electric, a Saudi Arabian corporation. The complaint seeks damages in connection with the engineering, procurement and construction of the Rabigh Combined Cycle Power Plant in Saudi Arabia. Subsequent to a motion to compel arbitration of the matter, the company initiated arbitration proceedings in New York under the American Arbitration Association international rules. The evidentiary phase of the arbitration has been concluded. In January 2005 the arbitration panel indicated that it would be rendering its decision in two phases; the first to be a decision on entitlement and second, a decision on damages. On May 4, 2005 the arbitration panel issued a partial award on entitlement issues which confirmed Fluor’s entitlement to recovery of certain of its claims

for costs incurred in construction of the plant. A decision determining the amount recoverable has yet to be issued by the arbitration panel.
Dearborn Industrial Project
Duke/Fluor Daniel (D/FD)
     The Dearborn Industrial Project (the “Project”) started as a co-generation combined cycle power plant project in Dearborn, Michigan. The initial Turnkey Agreement, dated November 24, 1998, consisted of three phases. Commencing shortly after Notice to Proceed, the owner/operator, Dearborn Industrial Generation (“DIG”), issued substantial change orders enlarging the scope of the project.
     The Project was severely delayed with completion of Phase II. DIG unilaterally took over completion and operation of Phase II and commissioned that portion of the plant. Shortly thereafter, DIG drew upon a $30 million letter of credit which Duke/Fluor Daniel (“D/FD”) expects to recover upon resolution of the dispute. D/FD retains lien rights (in fee) against the project. In October 2001, D/FD commenced an action in Michigan State Court to foreclose on the lien interest.
     In December 2001, DIG filed a responsive pleading denying liability and simultaneously served a demand for arbitration to D/FD claiming, among other things, that D/FD is liable to DIG for alleged construction delays and defective engineering and construction work at the Dearborn plant. The court has ordered the matter to arbitration. The lien action remains stayed pending completion of the arbitration of D/FD’s claims against DIG and DIG’s claims against D/FD. An arbitration panel has been appointed and the arbitration is underway.
     Following is a discussion of a litigation matter:
Asbestos Matters
     The company is a defendant in various lawsuits wherein plaintiffs allege exposure to asbestos fibers and dust due to work that the company may have performed at various locations. The company has substantial third party insurance coverage to cover a significant portion of existing and any potential costs, settlements or judgments. No material provision has been made for any present or future claims and the company does not believe that the outcome of any actions will have a material adverse impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The company has resolved a number of cases to date, which in the aggregate have not had a material adverse impact.
Guarantees
     In the ordinary course of business, the company enters into various agreements providing financial or performance assurances to clients on behalf of certain unconsolidated subsidiaries, joint ventures and other jointly executed contracts. These agreements are entered into primarily to support the project execution commitments of these entities. The guarantees have various expiration dates ranging from mechanical completion of the facilities being constructed to a period extending beyond contract completion in certain circumstances. The maximum potential payment amount of an outstanding performance guarantee is the remaining cost of work to be performed by or on behalf of third parties under engineering and construction contracts. The amount of guarantees outstanding measured on this basis totals $2.4 billion as of December 31, 2005. Amounts that may be required to be paid in excess of estimated costs to complete contracts in progress are not estimable. For cost reimbursable contracts amounts that may become payable pursuant to guarantee provisions are normally recoverable from the client for work performed under the contract. For lump sum or fixed price contracts, this amount is the cost to complete the contracted work less amounts remaining to be billed to the client under the contract. Remaining billable amounts could be greater or less than the cost to complete. In those cases where costs exceed the remaining amounts payable

under the contract the company may have recourse to third parties, such as owners, co-venturers, subcontractors or vendors for claims.
     The company has a joint venture arrangement that will design, build, finance and maintain an aircraft refueling facility at a United States Air Force base in Qatar for the Defense Energy Support Center, an agency of the Department of Defense. The company has a 27.5 percent interest in the joint venture company. On April 29, 2005, the joint venture entered into an agreement for project financing which includes a joint and several project completion guarantee by the members of the joint venture. The maximum potential amount of future payments that could be required under the guarantee is $76.5 million, the maximum principal amount available under the financing arrangement, plus any accrued interest. The facility is presently over 50 percent complete and proceeding as expected.
  National Roads Telecommunications Services (“NRTS”) Project
     During 2005 the company’s Industrial & Infrastructure segment was awarded a $544 million project by a joint venture, GeneSYS Telecommunications Limited (“GeneSYS”), which is consolidated in the company’s consolidated financial statements. The project was entered into with the United Kingdom Secretary of State for Transport (the “Highways Agency”) to design, build, maintain and finance a new integrated transmission network throughout England’s motorways. The project will be executed by GeneSYS in which the company owns a 45 percent interest and HSBC Infrastructure Fund Management Limited, which owns a 55 percent interest. GeneSYS will finance the engineering and construction (“E&C”) of upgraded telecommunications infrastructure with approximately $240 million (£140 million) of non-recourse debt (the “term loan facility”) from a consortium of lenders (the “Banks”) along with joint venture member capital contributions totaling approximately $37 million (£22 million). The equity contributions by the joint venture members have been provided through equity bridge loans from the Banks. The loans have been guaranteed or secured in proportion to each member’s equity participation. The equity bridge loans are repayable upon completion of the upgrade at which time the equity members are required to fund their contributions to the joint venture.
     During construction, the availability of the existing telecommunications network will be maintained for the Highways Agency by GeneSYS. Upon completion of the upgrade, operating availability of the network will be provided to the Highways Agency and the system will be fully maintained by GeneSYS. Under this arrangement, GeneSYS is entitled to payments from the Highways Agency for network availability, operations and maintenance (“O&M”) plus fees for on-demand maintenance services. The company has been engaged by GeneSYS to provide design engineering and construction of the network as well as O&M and on-demand services for the existing and upgraded facilities under a subcontract extending through 2016.
     Based on a qualitative analysis of the operations of GeneSYS and the variable interests of all parties to the arrangement, under the provisions of FIN 46-R the company has been determined to be the primary beneficiary of the joint venture. The company’s financial statements include the accounts of GeneSYS, and, accordingly, the non-recourse debt provided by the Banks totaling $57.6 million at December 31, 2005.
     The term loan facility provides for interest only at LIBOR plus a margin of 95 basis points during construction of the upgraded facilities reducing to a margin of 90 basis points after completion of construction and continuing until fully repaid. Commitment fees are payable on unused portions of the facility. Payments are due in installments over the term of the services period ending in 2016.
     The term loan facility is an obligation of GeneSYS and will never be a debt obligation of the company because it is non-recourse to the joint venture members. Accordingly, in the event of a default on the term loans, the lenders may only look to the resources of GeneSYS for repayment. The debt will never be repayable from assets of the company beyond its gross $17 million equity investment plus any un-remitted profits in the venture.

The contract has been segmented between the E&C and O&M portions of the work to be performed. The E&C portion of the work will be accounted for using contract accounting revenue recognition principles. Revenue in connection with O&M services including on-demand services will be recognized as earned through the life of the contract.
     Financial guarantees, made in the ordinary course of business on behalf of clients and others in certain limited circumstances, are entered into with financial institutions and other credit grantors and generally obligate the company to make payment in the event of a default by the borrower. Most arrangements require the borrower to pledge collateral in the form of property, plant and equipment which is deemed adequate to recover amounts the company might be required to pay. As of December 31, 2005, the company had extended financial guarantees on behalf of certain clients and other unrelated third parties totaling approximately $9.7 million, including a recognized amount of $5.3 million associated with a guarantee of pollution control bonds related to zinc operations that were sold in 1987.
Other Matters
     In 2001, the company issued a warrant for the purchase of 460,000 shares at $36.06 per share of the company’s common stock to a partner in the company’s e-commerce procurement venture. Any compensation realized by the holder through exercise of the warrant will offset any royalties otherwise payable under a five-year cooperation and services agreement.
     The company’s operations are subject to and affected by federal, state and local laws and regulations regarding the protection of the environment. The company maintains reserves for potential future environmental costs where such obligations are either known or considered probable, and can be reasonably estimated.
     The company believes, based upon present information available to it, that its reserves with respect to future environmental costs are adequate and such future costs will not have a material effect on the company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. However, the imposition of more stringent requirements under environmental laws or regulations, new developments or changes regarding site cleanup costs or the allocation of such costs among potentially responsible parties, or a determination that the company is potentially responsible for the release of hazardous substances at sites other than those currently identified, could result in additional expenditures, or the provision of additional reserves in expectation of such expenditures.
Operations by Business Segment and Geographical Area
     The company provides professional services on a global basis in the fields of engineering, procurement, construction and maintenance. Operations are organized in five industry segments: Oil & Gas, Industrial & Infrastructure, Government, Global Services and Power. The Oil & Gas segment provides engineering and construction professional services for upstream oil and gas production, downstream refining, and certain petrochemicals markets. The Industrial & Infrastructure segment provides engineering and construction professional services for manufacturing and life sciences facilities, commercial and institutional buildings, mining, microelectronics, chemicals, telecommunications and transportation projects and other facilities. The Government segment provides project management, engineering, construction, and contingency response services to the United States government. The percentages of the company’s consolidated revenue from the United States government, which represents a significant customer, were 21 percent, 24 percent and 19 percent, respectively, during the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003. The Global Services segment includes operations and maintenance, equipment and temporary staffing services and the company’s global sourcing and procurement services business. The Power segment provides professional services to engineer, construct and maintain power generation facilities. Through the second quarter of 2004, services provided by the Power segment were primarily conducted through two jointly owned groups; Duke/Fluor Daniel, 50 percent owned partnerships with Duke Energy, and ICA Fluor Daniel (“ICA Fluor”), 49 percent jointly owned companies with Grupo ICA, a Mexican company. As the result of a shift in

the markets served by and the types of projects awarded to ICA Fluor, commencing in the third quarter of 2004, its operating results and assets are included in the Oil & Gas segment. Prior periods have not been restated for the change in segment classification of ICA Fluor.
     In July 2003, the company jointly announced with Duke Energy Corporation the decision to terminate the Duke/Fluor Daniel partnership relationship as a result of the significant decline in the construction of new power plants. The dissolution was substantially completed in 2005 and did not have a material impact on results of operations or financial position of the company. The Power segment continues to identify and pursue power generation opportunities with its own resources.
     All segments except Global Services and Government provide design, engineering, procurement and construction services on a world-wide basis to an extensive range of industrial, commercial, utility, natural resources and energy clients. Services provided by these segments include: feasibility studies, conceptual design, detail engineering, procurement, project and construction management and construction.
     The Global Services segment provides a variety of services including: equipment services and outsourcing for construction and industrial needs; repair, renovation, replacement, predictive and preventative services for commercial and industrial facilities; and productivity consulting services and maintenance management to the manufacturing and process industries. In addition, Global Services provides temporary staffing specializing in technical, professional and administrative personnel for projects in all segments.
     The Government segment provides project management services to the United States government, particularly to the Department of Energy. The segment has recognized unbilled fees totaling $130.0 million related to the Fernald project. The project has moved into the closeout stage and contract terms provide that a portion of the earned fees will not be billed until project completion in 2006. Deferred fees recognized in revenue in 2005, 2004 and 2003 and 2002 were $38.9 million, $36.8 million and $21.9 million, respectively.
     The reportable segments follow the same accounting policies as those described in the summary of major accounting policies. Management evaluates a segment’s performance based upon operating profit. Intersegment revenues are insignificant. The company incurs costs and expenses and holds certain assets at the corporate level which relate to its business as a whole. Certain of these amounts have been charged to the company’s business segments by various methods, largely on the basis of usage.
     Engineering services for international projects are often performed within the United States or a country other than where the project is located. Revenues associated with these services have been classified within the geographic area where the work was performed.

The fourth quarter of 2004 incentive compensation charges were partially offset by a positive adjustment to pension expense.
 
(5)   Quarterly net earnings (loss) for 2005 were significantly impacted due to the tax effects of a number of factors, including foreign losses during the second quarter, the partial reversal of the Cayman Islands project jury award and settlement of Hamaca project claims in the third quarter and a favorable audit settlement, tax credits and repatriation of earnings from non-U.S. subsidiaries during the fourth quarter.

Section 1.02 Principal Office. The principal office for the transaction of the business of the Corporation shall be at One Enterprise Drive, Aliso Viejo, California 92656. The Board of Directors (hereinafter called the "Board") is hereby granted full power and authority to change said principal office from one location to another. Section 1.03 Other Offices. The Corporation may also have an office or offices at such other place or places, either within or without the State of Delaware, as the Board may from time to time determine or as the business of the Corporation may require. ARTICLE II MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS Section 2.01 Annual Meetings. Annual meetings of the stockholders of the Corporation for the purpose of electing directors and for the transaction of such other proper business as may come before such meetings may be held at such time, date and place as the Board shall determine by resolution. Section 2.02 Special Meetings. Special meetings of the stockholders of the Corporation for any purpose or purposes may be called at any time by the Board or by a committee of the Board which has been duly created by the Board and whose powers and authority, as provided in a resolution of the Board or in the Bylaws of the Corporation, include the power to call such meetings, but such special meetings may not be called by any other person or persons; provided, however, that if and to the extent that any special meeting of stockholders may be called by any other person or persons specified in any provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation or any amendment thereto or any certificate filed under Section 151(g) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (or its successor statute as in effect from time to time hereafter), then 1 such special meeting may also be called by the person or persons, in the manner, at the times and for the purposes so specified. Section 2.03 Place of Meetings. All meetings of the stockholders shall be held at such places, within or without the State of Delaware, as may from time to time be designated by the person or persons calling the respective meeting and specified in the respective notices or waivers of notice thereof. Section 2.04 Notice of Stockholder Business and Nominations. (A) Annual Meetings of Stockholders. (1) Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors of the Corporation and the proposal of business to be considered by the stockholders may be made at an annual meeting of stockholders only (a) pursuant to the Corporation's notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto), (b) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or (c) by any stockholder of the Corporation who was a stockholder of record of the Corporation at the time the notice provided for in this Section 2.04 is delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 5. (2) For nominations or other business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder pursuant to clause (c) of paragraph (A)(1) of this Section 2.04, the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation and any such proposed business other than the nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors must constitute a proper matter for stockholder action. To be timely, a stockholder's notice shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the close of business on the ninetieth day nor earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth day prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting (provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is more than thirty days before or more than seventy days after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder must be so delivered not earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the ninetieth day prior to such annual meeting or the tenth day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the Corporation). In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder's notice as described above. Such stockholder's notice shall set forth: (a) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election as a director all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors in an election contest, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and Rule 14a-11 thereunder (and such person's written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected); (b) as to any other business that the stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting, a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting, the text of the proposal or business (including the text of any resolutions proposed for consideration and in the event that such business includes a proposal to amend the Bylaws of the Corporation, the language of the proposed amendment), the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting and any material 2 interest in such business of such stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made; and (c) as to the stockholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made (i) the name and address of such stockholder, as they appear on the Corporation's books, and of such beneficial owner, (ii) the class and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation which are owned beneficially and of record by such stockholder and such beneficial owner, (iii) a representation that the stockholder is a holder of record of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at such meeting and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to propose such business or nomination, and (iv) a representation whether the stockholder or the beneficial owner, if any, intends or is part of a group which intends (a) to deliver a proxy statement and/or form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the Corporation's outstanding capital stock required to approve or adopt the proposal or elect the nominee and/or (b) otherwise to solicit proxies from stockholders in support of such proposal or nomination. The foregoing notice requirements shall be deemed satisfied by a stockholder if the stockholder has notified the Corporation of his or her intention to present a proposal at an annual meeting in compliance with Rule 14a-8 (or any successor thereof) promulgated under the Exchange Act and such stockholder's proposal has been included in a proxy statement that has been prepared by the Corporation to solicit proxies for such annual meeting. The Corporation may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as it may reasonably require to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as a director of the Corporation. (3) Notwithstanding anything in the second sentence of paragraph (A)(2) of this Section 2.04 to the contrary, in the event that the number of directors to be elected to the Board of Directors of the Corporation at an annual meeting is increased and there is no public announcement by the Corporation naming the nominees for the additional directorships at least one hundred days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting, a stockholder's notice required by this Section 2.04 shall also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for the additional directorships, if it shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the close of business on the tenth day following the day on which such public announcement is first made by the Corporation. (B) Special Meetings of Stockholders. Only such business shall be conducted at a special meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting pursuant to the Corporation's notice of meeting. Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors may be made at a special meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected pursuant to the Corporation's notice of meeting (1) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or (2) provided that the Board of Directors has determined that directors shall be elected at such meeting, by any stockholder of the Corporation who is a stockholder of record at the time the notice provided for in this Section 2.04 is delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and upon such election and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 2.04. In the event the Corporation calls a special meeting of stockholders for the purpose of electing one or more directors to the Board of Directors, any such stockholder entitled to vote in such election of directors may nominate a person or persons (as the case may be) for election to such position(s) as specified in the Corporation's notice of meeting, if the stockholder's notice required by paragraph (A)(2) of this Section 2.04 shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not earlier than the 3 close of business on the one hundred twentieth day prior to such special meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the ninetieth day prior to such special meeting or the tenth day following the day on which public announcement is first made of the date of the special meeting and of the nominees proposed by the Board of Directors to be elected at such meeting. In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of a special meeting commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder's notice as described above. (C) General. (1) Only such persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.04 shall be eligible to be elected at an annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation to serve as directors and only such business shall be conducted at a meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.04. Except as otherwise provided by law, the chairman of the meeting shall have the power and duty (a) to determine whether a nomination or any business proposed to be brought before the meeting was made or proposed, as the case may be, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.04 (including whether the stockholder or beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made solicited (or is part of a group which solicited) or did not so solicit, as the case may be, proxies in support of such stockholder's nominee or proposal in compliance with such stockholder's representation as required by clause (A)(2)(c)(iv) of this Section 2.04) and (b) if any proposed nomination or business was not made or proposed in compliance with this Section 2.04, to declare that such nomination shall be disregarded or that such proposed business shall not be transacted. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5, if the stockholder (or a qualified representative of the stockholder) does not appear at the annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation to present a nomination or business, such nomination shall be disregarded and such proposed business shall not be transacted, notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such vote may have been received by the Corporation. (2) For purposes of this Section 2.04, "public announcement" shall include disclosure in a press release reported by the Dow Jones News Service, Associated Press or comparable national news service or in a document publicly filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. (3) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04, a stockholder shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set forth in this Section 2.04. Nothing in this Section 2.04 shall be deemed to affect any rights (a) of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the Corporation's proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act or (b) of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock to elect directors pursuant to any applicable provisions of the certificate of incorporation. Section 2.05 Notice of Meetings. Except as otherwise required by law, the certificate of incorporation or the Bylaws, notice of each meeting of the stockholders, whether annual or special, shall be given not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such meeting by delivering a notice thereof to him or her personally, or by depositing such notice in the United States mail, in a postage prepaid 4 envelope, directed to him or her at his or her post office address furnished by him or her to the Secretary of the Corporation for such purpose or, if he or she shall not have furnished to the Secretary his or her address for such purposes or if otherwise consented to by such stockholder, then at his or her post office address last known to the Secretary, or by transmitting a notice thereof to him or her at such address by means of electronic transmission. Except as otherwise expressly required by law, no publication of any notice of a meeting of the stockholders shall be required. Every notice of a meeting of the stockholders shall state the place, date and hour of the meeting, and, in the case of a special meeting, shall also state the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Notice of any meeting of stockholders shall not be required to be given to any stockholder who shall have waived such notice and such notice shall be deemed waived by any stockholder who shall attend such meeting in person or by proxy, except a stockholder who shall attend such meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Except as otherwise expressly required by law, notice of any adjourned meeting of the stockholders need not be given if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. Section 2.06 Quorum. Except in the case of any meeting for the election of directors summarily ordered as provided by law, the holders of record of a majority of the voting power of the shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to be voted thereat, present in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation or any adjournment thereof. In the absence of a quorum at any meeting or any adjournment thereof, the holders of a majority of the voting power of the stockholders present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereat or, in the absence therefrom of all the stockholders, any officer entitled to preside at, or to act as secretary of, such meeting may adjourn such meeting from time to time. At any such adjourned meeting at which a quorum is present any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally called. Section 2.07 Voting. (a) Except as otherwise provided by or pursuant to the provisions of the certificate of incorporation, each stockholder entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders shall be entitled to one vote for each share of stock held by such stockholder which has voting power upon the matter in question. Each stockholder shall, at each meeting of the stockholders, be entitled to vote in person or by proxy each share or fractional share of the stock of the Corporation having voting rights on the matter in question and which shall have been held by him or her and registered in his or her name on the books of the Corporation: (i) on the date fixed pursuant to Section 6.05 of the Bylaws as the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at such meeting, or (ii) if no such record date shall have been so fixed, then (a) at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice of the meeting shall be given or (b) if notice of the meeting shall be waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which meeting shall be held. 5 (b) Shares of its own stock belonging to the corporation or to another corporation, if a majority of the shares entitled to vote in the election of directors of such other corporation is held, directly or indirectly, by the corporation, shall neither be entitled to vote nor be counted for quorum purposes; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit the right of the corporation or any subsidiary of the corporation to vote stock, including but not limited to its own stock, held by it in a fiduciary capacity. Persons holding stock of the Corporation in a fiduciary capacity shall be entitled to vote such stock. Persons whose stock is pledged shall be entitled to vote, unless in the transfer by the pledgor on the books of the Corporation such person has expressly empowered the pledgee to vote thereon, in which case only the pledgee, or such person's proxy, may represent such stock and vote thereon. Stock having voting power standing of record in the names of two or more persons, whether fiduciaries, members of a partnership, joint tenants, tenants in common, tenants by the entirety or otherwise, or if two or more persons have the same fiduciary relationship respecting the same shares, shall be voted in accordance with the provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. (c) Any such voting rights may be exercised by the stockholder entitled thereto in person or by his or her proxy or by his or her attorney thereunto authorized and delivered to the secretary of the meeting; provided, however, that no proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date unless said proxy shall provide for a longer period. The attendance at any meeting by a stockholder who may theretofore have given a proxy shall not have the effect of revoking the same unless he or she shall in writing so notify the secretary of the meeting prior to the voting of the proxy. At all meetings of stockholders for the election of directors a plurality of the votes cast shall be sufficient to elect. All other elections and questions shall, unless otherwise provided by the certificate of incorporation, these by-laws, the rules or regulations of any stock exchange applicable to the corporation, or applicable law or pursuant to any regulation applicable to the corporation or its securities, be decided by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares of stock of the corporation which are present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon. The vote at any meeting of the stockholders on any question need not be by ballot, unless so directed by the chairman of the meeting. On a vote by ballot each ballot shall be signed by the stockholder voting, or by his or her proxy, if there be such proxy, and it shall state the number of shares voted. Section 2.08 List of Stockholders. The Secretary shall prepare and make, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, as required by applicable law. Except as otherwise provided by law, the stock ledger shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the stock ledger, the list of stockholders or the books of the corporation, or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders. Section 2.09 Inspectors of Election. The corporation may, and shall if required by law, in advance of any meeting of stockholders, appoint one or more inspectors of election, who may be employees of the corporation, to act at the meeting or any adjournment thereof and to make a written report thereof. The corporation may designate one or more persons as alternate 6 inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. In the event that no inspector so appointed or designated is able to act at a meeting of stockholders, the person presiding at the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of his or her duties, shall take and sign an oath to execute faithfully the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of his or her ability. The inspector or inspectors so appointed or designated shall (i) ascertain the number of shares of capital stock of the corporation outstanding and the voting power of each such share, (ii) determine the shares of capital stock of the corporation represented at the meeting and the validity of proxies and ballots, (iii) count all votes and ballots, (iv) determine and retain for a reasonable period a record of the disposition of any challenges made to any determination by the inspectors, and (v) certify their determination of the number of shares of capital stock of the corporation represented at the meeting and such inspectors' count of all votes and ballots. Such certification and report shall specify such other information as may be required by law. In determining the validity and counting of proxies and ballots cast at any meeting of stockholders of the corporation, the inspectors may consider such information as is permitted by applicable law. No person who is a candidate for an office at an election may serve as an inspector at such election ARTICLE III BOARD OF DIRECTORS Section 3.01 General Powers. The property, business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by the Board. Section 3.02 Number. The authorized number of Directors of the Corporation shall be ten and such authorized number shall not be changed except by a Bylaw or amendment thereof duly adopted by the stockholders in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation or by the Board amending this Section 3.02. Section 3.03 Election of Directors. The directors shall be elected by the stockholders of the Corporation, and at each election the persons receiving the greatest number of votes, up to the number of directors then to be elected, shall be the persons then elected. The election of directors is subject to any provisions contained in the Certificate of Incorporation relating thereto, including any provisions for a classified board. Section 3.04 Mandatory Retirement. The Chairman of the Board and the President and any former Chairman of the Board and any former President, if serving as a director of the Corporation at age 72, shall retire from the Board at the end of the calendar year in which his or her 72nd birthday occurs. Each other employee or former employee of the Corporation or its subsidiaries serving as a director of the Corporation at age 65 shall retire from the Board at the end of the calendar year in which his or her 65th birthday occurs unless the Chairman of the Board recommends and the Board approves his or her continued service as a non-employee director. Each other employee of the Corporation or its subsidiaries under age 65 serving as a director of the Corporation who elects to take early retirement or who for any other reason is no longer an officer of the Corporation or its subsidiaries shall retire from the Board as of the date he or she ceases to be an officer unless the Chairman of the Board recommends and the Board 7 approves his or her continued directorship. Each non-employee director of the Corporation serving at age 72 shall retire from the Board at the end of the calendar year in which his or her 72nd birthday occurs. For purposes of this Section, "end of the calendar year" shall include the period ending with the seventh day of January next following. Section 3.05 Resignations. Any director of the Corporation may resign at any time by giving written notice to the Board or to the Secretary of the Corporation. Any such resignation shall take effect at the time specified therein, or, if the time be not specified, it shall take effect immediately upon its receipt; and, unless otherwise specified therein, the acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. Section 3.06 Vacancies. Except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, any vacancy in the Board, whether because of death, resignation, disqualification, an increase in the number of directors, or any other cause, shall be filled solely by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office, even though less than a quorum of the Board. Any director so chosen shall hold office until the next election of the class for which such director shall have been chosen and until such director's successor shall be elected and qualified. No decrease in the number of directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director. Section 3.07 Place of Meeting, etc. The Board may hold any of its meetings at such place or places within or without the State of Delaware and at such times as the Board may from time to time determine. Directors may participate in any regular or special meeting of the Board by means of conference telephone or other communications equipment pursuant to which all persons participating in the meeting of the Board can hear each other, and such participation shall constitute presence in person at such meeting. Section 3.08 First Meeting. The Board shall meet as soon as practicable after each annual election of directors and notice of such first meeting shall not be required. Section 3.09 Regular Meetings. Regular meetings of the Board may be held at such times as the Board shall from time to time by resolution determine. If any day fixed for a meeting shall be a legal holiday at the place where the meeting is to be held, then the meeting shall be held at the same hour and place on the next succeeding business day not a legal holiday. Except as provided by law, notice of regular meetings need not be given. Section 3.10 Special Meetings. Special meetings of the Board may be called at any time by the Chairman of the Board or the President or by any two directors, to be held at the principal office of the Corporation, or at such other place or places, within or without the State of Delaware, as the person or persons calling the meeting may designate. Notice of all special meetings of the Board shall be given to each director by two days' service of the same by telegram, by letter, or personally. Such notice may be waived by any director and any meeting shall be a legal meeting without notice having been given if all the directors shall be present thereat or if those not present shall, either before or after the meeting, sign a written waiver of notice of, or a consent to, such meeting or shall after the meeting sign the approval of the 8 minutes thereof. All such waivers, consents or approvals shall be filed with the corporate records or be made a part of the minutes of the meeting. Section 3.11 Quorum and Manner of Acting. Except as otherwise provided in the Bylaws or by law, the presence of a majority of the whole Board of Directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting of the Board, and all matters shall be decided at any such meeting, a quorum being present, by the affirmative votes of a majority of the directors present. In the absence of a quorum, a majority of directors present at any meeting may adjourn the same from time to time until a quorum shall be present. Notice of any adjourned meeting need not be given. The directors shall act only as a Board, and the individual directors shall have no power as such. Section 3.12 Action by Consent. Unless otherwise restricted by the certificate of incorporation or these by-laws, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors, or of any committee thereof, may be taken without a meeting if all members of the Board of Directors or such committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing or by electronic means, and such consents are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board of Directors or such committee. Section 3.13 Compensation. No stated salary need be paid directors, as such, for their services, but, by resolution of the Board, a fixed sum and expenses of attendance, if any, may be allowed for attendance at each regular or special meeting of the Board or an annual directors' fee may be paid; provided that nothing herein contained shall be construed to preclude any director from serving the Corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefore. Members of special or standing committees may be allowed like compensation for attending committee meetings. Section 3.14 Committees. The Board may, by resolution passed by the Board, designate one or more committees, each committee to consist of one or more of the directors of the Corporation. Former employees of the Corporation or its subsidiaries who are no longer officers of the Corporation or its subsidiaries, if serving as a director of the Corporation, shall not be eligible to serve as a member of any committee of the Board. Except as otherwise provided in the Board resolution designating a committee, the presence of a majority of the authorized number of members of such committee shall be required to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting of such committee. Any such committee, to the extent provided in the resolution of the Board, shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board in the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation, and may authorize the seal of the Corporation to be affixed to all papers which may require it; but no such committee shall have any power or authority in reference to amending the Certificate of Incorporation, adopting an agreement of merger or consolidation, recommending to the stockholders the sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the Corporation's property and assets, recommending to the stockholders a dissolution of the Corporation or a revocation of the dissolution, or amending the Bylaws of the Corporation; and unless the resolution of the Board expressly so provides, no such committee shall have the power or authority to declare a dividend or to authorize the issuance of stock. Any such committee shall keep written minutes of its meetings and report the same to the Board at the next regular meeting of the Board. 9 Section 3.15 Officers of the Board. The Board shall have a Chairman of the Board and may, at the discretion of the Board, have a Vice Chairman and other officers. The Chairman of the Board and the Vice Chairman shall be appointed from time to time by the Board, unless such positions are elected offices of the Corporation, currently filled, and shall have such powers and duties as shall be designated by the Board. ARTICLE IV OFFICERS Section 4.01 Officers. The officers of the Corporation shall be a Chairman of the Board, a Chief Executive Officer, a Secretary, a Treasurer and such other officers as may be appointed by the Board as the business of the Corporation may require. Officers shall have such powers and duties as are permitted or required by law or as may be specified by or in accordance with resolutions of the Board. Any number of offices may be held by the same person. Unless the Board shall otherwise determine, the Chairman of the Board shall be the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation. In the absence of any contrary determination by the Board, the Chief Executive Officer shall, subject to the power and authority of the Board, have general supervision, direction and control of the officers, employees, business and affairs of the Corporation. Section 4.02 Election and Term. The officers of the Corporation shall be elected annually by the Board. The Board may at any time and from time to time elect such additional officers as the business of the Corporation may require. Each officer shall hold his or her office until his or her successor is elected and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation or removal. Section 4.03 Removal and Resignation. Any officer may be removed, either with or without cause, by a majority of the directors at the time in office, at any regular or special meeting of the Board. Any officer may resign at any time by giving notice to the Board. Such resignation shall take effect at the time specified in such notice or, in the absence of such specification, at the date of the receipt by the Board of such notice. Unless otherwise specified in such notice, the acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. Section 4.04 Vacancies. Any vacancy occurring in any office of the Corporation by death, resignation, removal or otherwise, shall be filled in the manner prescribed in these Bylaws for the regular appointment to such office. ARTICLE V CONTRACTS, CHECKS, DRAFTS, BANK ACCOUNTS, ETC. Section 5.01 Execution of Contracts. The Board, except as in the Bylaws otherwise provided, may authorize any officer or officers, agent or agents, to enter into any contract or execute any instrument in the name and on behalf of the Corporation, and such authority may be 10 general or confined to specific instances; and unless so authorized by the Board or by the Bylaws, no officer, agent or employee shall have any power or authority to bind the Corporation by any contract or engagement or to pledge its credit or to render it liable for any purpose or in any amount. Section 5.02 Checks, Drafts, etc. All checks, drafts or other orders for payment of money, notes or other evidence of indebtedness, issued in the name of or payable to the Corporation, shall be signed or endorsed by such person or persons and in such manner as, from time to time, shall be determined by resolution of the Board. Each such person shall give such bond, if any, as the Board may require. Section 5.03 Deposit. All funds of the Corporation not otherwise employed shall be deposited from time to time to the credit of the Corporation in such banks, trust companies or other depositories as the Board may select, or as may be selected by any officer or officers, assistant or assistants, agent or agents, or attorney or attorneys of the Corporation to whom such power shall have been delegated by the Board. For the purpose of deposit and for the purpose of collection for the account of the Corporation, the Chief Executive Officer, the President or the Treasurer (or any other officer or officers, assistant or assistants, agent or agents, or attorney or attorneys of the Corporation who shall from time to time be determined by the Board) may endorse, assign and deliver checks, drafts and other orders for the payment of money which are payable to the order of the Corporation. Section 5.04 General and Special Bank Accounts. The Board may from time to time authorize the opening and keeping of general and special bank accounts with such banks, trust companies or other depositories as the Board may select or as may be selected by any officer or officers, assistant or assistants, agent or agents, or attorney or attorneys of the Corporation to whom such power shall have been delegated by the Board. The Board may make such special rules and regulations with respect to such bank accounts, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Bylaws, as it may deem expedient. ARTICLE VI SHARES AND THEIR TRANSFER Section 6.01 Certificates for Stock. Every owner of stock of the Corporation shall be entitled to have a certificate or certificates, to be in such form as the Board shall prescribe, certifying the number and class of shares of the stock of the Corporation owned by him or her. The certificates representing shares of such stock shall be numbered in the order in which they shall be issued and shall be signed in the name of the Corporation by the President and by the Secretary. Any or all of the signatures on the certificates may be a facsimile. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon any such certificate shall thereafter have ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar before such certificate is issued, such certificate may nevertheless be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as though the person who signed such certificate, or whose facsimile signature shall have been placed thereupon, were such officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue. A record shall be kept of the respective names of the persons, firms or corporations owning the 11 stock represented by such certificates, the number and class of shares represented by such certificates, respectively, and the respective dates thereof, and in case of cancellation the respective dates of cancellation. Every certificate surrendered to the Corporation for exchange or transfer shall be cancelled, and no new certificate or certificates shall be issued in exchange for any existing certificate until such existing certificate shall have been so cancelled, except in cases provided for in Section 6.04 of the Bylaws. Section 6.02 Transfers of Stock. Transfers of shares of stock of the Corporation shall be made only on the books of the Corporation by the registered holder thereof, or by his or her attorney thereunto authorized by power of attorney duly executed and filed with the Secretary, or with a transfer clerk or a transfer agent appointed as provided in Section 6.03 of the Bylaws, and upon surrender of the certificate or certificates for such shares properly endorsed and the payment of all taxes thereon. The person in whose name shares of stock stand on the books of the Corporation shall be deemed the owner thereof for all purposes as regards the Corporation. Whenever any transfer of shares shall be made for collateral security, and not absolutely, such fact shall be stated expressly in the entry of transfer if, when the certificate or certificates shall be presented to the Corporation for transfer, both the transferor and the transferee request the Corporation to do so. Section 6.03 Regulations. The Board may make such rules and regulations as it may deem expedient, not inconsistent with the Bylaws, concerning the issue, transfer and registration of certificates for shares of the stock of the Corporation. It may appoint, or authorize any officer or officers to appoint, one or more transfer clerks or one or more transfer agents and one or more registrars, and may require all certificates for stock to bear the signature or signatures of any of them. Section 6.04 Lost, Stolen, Destroyed, And Mutilated Certificates. In any case of loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of any certificate of stock, another may be issued in its place upon proof of such loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation and upon the giving of a bond of indemnity to the Corporation in such form and in such sum as the Board may direct; provided, however, that a new certificate may be issued without requiring any bond when, in the judgment of the Board, it is proper so to do. Section 6.05 Fixing Date for Determination of Stockholders of Record. In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any other change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board may fix, in advance, a record date, which shall not be more than 60 nor less than 10 days before the date of such meeting, nor more than 60 days prior to any other action. If, in any case involving the determination of stockholders for any purpose other than notice of or voting at a meeting of stockholders, the Board shall not fix such a record date, the record date for determining stockholders for such purpose shall be the close of business on the day on which the Board shall adopt the resolution relating thereto. A determination of stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of such meeting; provided, however, that the Board may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting. 12 ARTICLE VII MISCELLANEOUS Section 7.01 Seal. The Board shall provide a corporate seal, which shall be in the form of a circle and shall bear the name of the Corporation and words and figures showing that the Corporation was incorporated in the State of Delaware and the year of incorporation. Section 7.02 Waiver of Notices. Whenever notice is required to be given by the Bylaws or the Certificate of Incorporation or by law, the person entitled to said notice may waive such notice in writing, either before or after the time stated therein, and such waiver shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Section 7.03 Fiscal Year. The fiscal year of the Corporation shall end on the 31st day of December of each year. Section 7.04 Amendments. The Bylaws, or any of them, may be rescinded, altered, amended or repealed, and new Bylaws may be made, (i) by the Board, by vote of a majority of the number of directors then in office as directors, acting at any meeting of the Board, or (ii) by the vote of the holders of not less than 80% of the total voting power of all outstanding shares of voting stock of the Corporation, at any annual meeting of stockholders, without previous notice, or at any special meeting of stockholders, provided that notice of such proposed amendment, modification, repeal or adoption is given in the notice of special meeting. Any Bylaws made or altered by the stockholders may be altered or repealed by the Board or may be altered or repealed by the stockholders. 13 EX-21.1 3 a15918exv21w1.txt EXHIBIT 21.1 Exhibit 21.1 FLUOR CORPORATION SUBSIDIARIES(1) [Note: Roman numerals below denote the level of the subsidiary.
