T he most important takeaway from 2021 is this: Fluor is on solid ground and decisively moving forward. Over the past three years, we refocused, rebalanced, and refined our risk process and execution strategy. As a result, we amassed wins that have renewed credibility with our clients, our shareholders and our people. Reflecting on this company’s rich 110-year history, Fluor has risen to meet many challenges. I have been here for two significant ones. In each, perseverance and dedication kept us going and returned us to positions of strength. In the mid-1980s, when oil prices plunged, taking us with them, Fluor sold assets and went on the offensive to recover and build back to new highs. Today we are emerging from the challenges of the past few years — which include a global pandemic, project challenges and an economic downturn. I can assure you that we are more resilient and confident about where we’re going and are in a position, once again, to be better than ever.

Fluor is a company with a deep-rooted heritage of loyal people who are willing to do the hard work, and our management team and Board of Directors rise to that standard every day. The specific individual and collective expertise represented on our Board of Directors is extraordinary, and over the past three years, we have used the rigorous involvement of our board to great advantage. This includes, of course, Peter Fluor, the great-grandson of our founder. Peter retired from the board in 2021 after making an enormous impact on our company, our communities and our employees for 37 years. He joined Fluor’s board in 1984 — during one of those particularly challenging times mentioned above. During his nearly four decades on the board, Peter served on the Nominating Committee for nine years, the Audit Committee for 15 years, the Governance Committee for 17 years, the Executive Committee for 24 years and the Organization and Compensation Committee for 26 years. He chaired the Audit Committee for five years and chaired the Organization and Compensation Committee for 17 years. During his time of service, he performed the duties of an interim CEO and oversaw seven CEOs, as well as the relocation of Fluor’s headquarters to Dallas. HE HAD A WAY OF BRINGING THE BOARD TOGETHER INSPIRING THOSE AROUND HIM TO GIVE THEIR BEST I believe what made Peter’s board tenure unique was this: 2019 and has been incredibly active since. David Constable No matter how he served, he had a way of bringing the was its first chairman, and now Armando Olivera is in that board together and inspiring those around him to give their role. This committee addresses the process to manage risk, Operational Risk Committee, which was established in best in every situation. including contract structure, terms and conditions, and adherence to established risk-mitigation strategies. When Fluor first began to experience global success where other companies had not, Peter famously said: “Fluor has Without exception, our directors reinforce the financial worked hard at being an international company versus a U.S. company that does business internationally.” As you discipline set by our management team with dedication and an admirable work ethic. Our board continually read more about our diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&I) demonstrates its loyalty, enthusiasm and love for Fluor efforts across four impact pillars later in this annual report, through its investment of time and talent. I’ve been amazed you will see for yourself that this has never been more by its capacity to work remotely through a pandemic and the case than it is today. Peter’s passion for our people is master the exchange of ideas and information in the virtual admirable and inspiring. He understands what his father, settings that are now a way of life. I am truly grateful for the grandfather and great-grandfather before him understood board's insight and perspective. — that people drive our business. Peter’s commitment to the company and to building a better world — together — Our management team works incredibly hard — with is a legacy that will live on at Fluor. Fluor’s Board of Directors is clearly a competitive David at the helm leading by example. This is integral to the culture of accountability that we all embrace at Fluor. We believe that when you clearly set expectations and give advantage. Our board is engaged at a highly detailed level. people the tools and support to reach those expectations, A prime example of this is our Commercial Strategies and good things will happen. 03 FORWARD FOCUSEDThis was evident in 2021, given the remarkable progress made on our four strategic priorities: driving growth across the portfolio, reinforcing financial discipline, pursuing contracts with fair and balanced terms, and building a high-performance culture with purpose. These priorities have unified our company, and we celebrate our accomplishments as a team. At Fluor, we have a lot to be proud of right now. I’m hearing it from clients, competitors and colleagues — our efforts in 2021 are being recognized. Our 2021 performance validates that our strategy has set an impressive trajectory. Under David’s leadership, Fluor’s balance sheet is stronger, and investor confidence has been restored. I believe the timing is right for me to retire following the substantial positive strides of improvement we have delivered for our stakeholders. I was honored when Fluor’s Board of Directors requested that I return to the company nearly three years ago. It has always been my intention to help the company in any way I was able, and I have done that. I began my career with Fluor in 1974 and have always had great respect and appreciation for the dedication of our people around the world. I would like to thank Fluor’s board and senior leadership for their confidence in me and their perseverance in charting a course to build a better world. Fluor is in good hands, and I depart with a grateful heart and complete confidence in the future of Fluor.

We are also well-positioned to secure our share of the $110 billion in funding for road and bridge work as a result of the U.S. bipartisan infrastructure bill, which was signed into law in November 2021. We considered 2021 a bridging year for growth and are ready to capture business as markets return this year. Though it did not book in the fourth quarter, the U.S. Department of Energy’s Y-12 National Security Complex and Pantex Plant management and operating contract is an important win for Fluor.

Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, a "safe harbor" may be provided to us for certain of these 1 forward-looking statements. We caution readers that forward-looking statements, including disclosures which use words such as "will, "may," "could," "should" "believes," "anticipates," "plans," "expects," "intends," "estimates," "projects," "potential," "continue" and similar statements are subject to various future 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, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results of operations, financial condition, cost reductions, acquisitions, dispositions, financing transactions, operations, expansion, consolidation and other events to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. We are subject to known risks and to potentially unknown risks. While most risks affect only future cost or revenue anticipated by us, some risks may relate to accruals that have already been reflected in earnings. Our failure to receive payments of expected amounts or the incurrence of liabilities in excess of amounts recorded, could result in charges against future earnings. As a result, the reader is cautioned to recognize and consider the inherently uncertain nature of forward- looking statements and not to place undue reliance on them. These factors include those referenced or described in this 2021 10-K (including in "Item 1A. — Risk Factors"). We cannot control all risks and uncertainties, and in many cases, we cannot predict the risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements. You should consider these risks and uncertainties when you are evaluating us and deciding whether to invest in our securities. Except as otherwise required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise our forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Defined Terms 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 joint ventures. 2 Item 1. Business PART I Fluor Corporation was incorporated in Delaware in September, 2000. However, through our predecessors, we have been in business for over a century. Our common stock trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "FLR". Fluor Corporation is a holding company that owns many subsidiaries, as well as interests in joint ventures. Acting through these entities, we are one of the larger global professional services firms providing EPC, fabrication and modularization, and project management services, on a global basis. We provide these services to our clients in a diverse set of industries worldwide including production and fuels, chemicals, LNG, nuclear project services, infrastructure, advanced technologies, life sciences and mining and metals. We are also a service provider to the U.S. federal government and governments abroad. During the first quarter of 2021, we began operating our business through four segments. These segments include: Energy Solutions, Urban Solutions, Mission Solutions and Other. Fluor Constructors International, Inc., which is organized and operates separately from the rest of our business, provides unionized management and construction services in the United States and Canada, both independently and as a subcontractor on projects for Fluor. In January 2021, we outlined four strategic priorities for driving value creation for our shareholders: • • • • Drive growth across our portfolio, by growing markets outside of the traditional oil and gas sector, including energy transition, advanced technology and life sciences, high-demand metals, infrastructure and nuclear and civil, defense and intelligence for governments; Pursue contracts with fair and balanced commercial terms, focusing on more favorable, risk-adjusted agreements that reward Fluor for value; Reinforce financial discipline, maintaining a solid balance sheet by generating predictable cash flow and earnings; and Foster a high-performance culture with purpose, by advancing our diversity, equity and inclusion efforts and promoting social progress and sustainability. In 2021, we completed a number of transactions in support of our strategic priorities. In May 2021, we sold the North American portion of our construction equipment business, AMECO. Additionally, in May 2021, we issued 600,000 shares of Series A 6.5% cumulative perpetual CPS in a private transaction. We used the majority of the net proceeds of this offering to complete a tender offer in which we purchased a cumulative $483 million of our outstanding 2023 and 2024 Notes. In 2021, we also redeemed $26 million of outstanding 2023 and 2024 Notes in open market transactions. For further information on these transactions please see Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. In December 2021, we announced that NuScale, in which we are the majority investor, signed a merger agreement with Spring Valley Acquisition Corp., a special purpose acquisition company ("Spring Valley"). Spring Valley is acquiring an approximately 20% interest in NuScale. The proposed transaction is anticipated to close in the first half of 2022, subject to customary closing conditions. Upon completion of the merger, we estimate that we will own approximately 60-70% of the combined company and expect that we will continue to consolidate it. Competitive Strengths As a world-class provider of technical and professional services, we believe that we bring capital efficient business solutions that combine excellence in execution, safety, cost containment and experience to our clients. In that regard, we believe that our business advantages and global positioning provide us with significant competitive strengths: Safety. One of our core values is our constant focus on safety. Maintaining a safe and secure workplace is a key business driver for us and our clients. In our experience, whether in an office or at a jobsite, a safe environment decreases risks, provides for the well-being of all workers, enhances morale, improves productivity, reduces project cost and generally improves client relations. We believe that our commitment to safety is one of our most distinguishing features. Global Execution Platform. As one of the larger publicly traded EPC companies, we have a global footprint with employees located throughout the world. Our global presence enables us to build local relationships to capitalize on opportunities as well as mobilize quickly to project sites around the world and to draw on our local knowledge and talent 3 pools. We continue to form strategic alliances with local partners, leverage our supply chain expertise and emphasize local training programs. We also provide services from our distributed execution centers on a cost-efficient basis. Excellence in Execution. We believe that our ability to execute, maintain and manage complex projects, large or small and often in geographically challenging locations, gives us a distinct competitive advantage. We strive to complete our projects meeting or exceeding all client specifications. We have continued to shift toward data-driven execution, which we expect will enhance our ability to meet our clients' needs. Market Diversity. We serve multiple markets across a broad spectrum of industries around the globe. Our market diversity helps to mitigate the impact of the cyclicality in the markets we serve and allows us to strive for more consistent growth. We believe that maintaining a good mixture within our entire business portfolio permits us to both focus on our more stable business markets and to capitalize on cyclical markets when the timing is appropriate. Client Relationships. We actively pursue relationships with new clients while also building on our long-term relationships with existing clients. We believe that long-term relationships with existing clients serve us well by allowing us to better understand and be more responsive to their requirements. Regardless of whether our clients are new or have been with us for many decades, our ability to successfully foster relationships is a key strength. Risk Management. We believe we have the ability to assess, mitigate and manage project risk, especially in difficult locations or circumstances. We have an experienced management team, and utilize a systematic and disciplined approach towards identifying, assessing and managing risks. We believe that our risk management approach helps us control costs and meet clients' schedules. Sustainability. Our sustainability mission envisions meeting the needs of our clients while conducting business in an environmentally and socially responsible manner. We consistently apply prudent governance principles to the benefit of current and future generations, thereby creating value for all stakeholders. Every day, we help clients safeguard the environment, conserve energy, protect lives, and strengthen the economies and social structures of communities in which our employees work and live. General Operations Our services fall into five broad categories (outlined below). Our services can range from basic consulting activities, often at the early stages of a project, to complete design-build, operations and maintenance contracts. • • • In engineering and design, we develop solutions to address our clients’ most complex problems. Our engineering services range from traditional engineering disciplines such as piping, mechanical, electrical, control systems, civil, structural and architectural to advanced engineering specialties including process engineering, chemical engineering, simulation, integrated automation processes and interactive 3-D modeling. Through our design solutions, we can provide clients with varied offerings which can include front-end engineering, conceptual design, estimating, feasibility studies, permitting, process simulation, technology and licensing evaluation, scope definition and siting. Our procurement offerings include procurement and supply chain solutions aimed at improving product quality and performance while also reducing project cost and schedule. Our clients draw upon our global sourcing and supply expertise, global purchasing power, technical knowledge, processes, systems and experienced global resources. Our procurement activities include strategic sourcing, material management, contracts management, buying, expediting, supplier quality inspection and logistics. In construction, we mobilize, execute, commission and demobilize projects on a self-perform and subcontracted basis. Generally, we are responsible for the completion of a project, often in difficult locations and under challenging circumstances. We are frequently designated as program manager, and serve as such in cases where the client has facilities in multiple locations, complex phases in a single project location, or a large-scale investment in one facility. • We also provide a variety of fabrication and modularization services, including integrated engineering and modular fabrication and assembly, as well as modular construction and asset support services to clients around the globe from our joint venture yards. By operating our own yards in key regions of the world, we help our clients achieve cost and schedule savings by reducing on-site craft needs and shifting work to inherently safer and more controlled work environments. 4 • We offer operations and maintenance services intended to improve the performance and extend the life of our clients’ facilities. This may include the global delivery of services to include facility management, technical facility operations, plant readiness, commissioning, start-up and maintenance technology, small capital projects, turnaround and outage services and recapitalization of facilities and infrastructure. Among other things, we can provide key management, staffing and management skills to clients on-site at their facilities. These activities also include routine and outage/turnaround maintenance services, general maintenance and asset management, emissions reduction technologies and services, and restorative, repair, predictive and prevention services. • Project management involves managing all aspects of the effort to deliver projects on schedule and within budget, and is critical on every project. We are often hired as the overall program manager on large complex projects where various contractors and subcontractors are involved and multiple activities need to be integrated to ensure the success of the overall project. Our services include logistics, development of project execution plans, detailed schedules, cost forecasts, progress tracking and reporting, and the integration of EPC efforts. Project management is accountable to the client to deliver the safety, functionality and financial performance requirements of the project. Business Segments Energy Solutions Our Energy Solutions segment focuses on opportunities in the production and fuels, chemicals, LNG and nuclear project services markets. We provide solutions to the energy transition markets, including asset decarbonization, carbon capture, renewable fuels, waste-to-energy, green chemicals, hydrogen, nuclear power and other low-carbon energy sources. At the same time, we continue to serve the traditional oil, gas and petrochemical industries with full project life-cycle services, including expansion and modernization projects as well as sustaining capital work. While we perform work on projects that range greatly in size and scope, we believe that one of our distinguishing features is our global strength and experience to perform very large projects in difficult locations. As energy and chemicals projects have become more challenging geographically, geopolitically or otherwise, we believe that clients will continue to look to us to manage their complex projects based on our size, strength, global reach, experience, technical expertise and proven track record. With each specific project, our role can vary. We may be involved in providing front-end engineering, program management and final design services, construction management services, self-perform construction, or oversight of other contractors, and we may also assume responsibility for the procurement of materials, equipment and subcontractors. We have the capacity to design, fabricate and construct new facilities, upgrade, modernize and expand existing facilities, and rebuild facilities following fires and explosions. We also provide consulting services ranging from feasibility studies to process assessments to project finance structuring. In production and fuels, we execute projects for the oil and gas production, processing and refining industries, including an increasing component of energy transition. In the upstream sector, our typical projects involve the production, processing and transporting of oil and gas, including the development of infrastructure associated with major new fields and pipelines. We are also involved in offshore production facilities and in gas processing projects. In the downstream sector, our clients have been modernizing and modifying existing refineries to increase capacity, improve margins and improve environmental performance. We are active in the repurposing of existing refining facilities for the production of renewable fuels. We are also focused on other transition markets, such as carbon capture and sequestration, blue and green hydrogen, ammonia and other low carbon solutions, as an increasing number of clients and countries implement stronger sustainable energy goals. We have been very active for several decades in the chemicals and petrochemicals market, with major projects in the ethylene-based markets as well as in a variety of specialty chemicals. The most active markets have been in the United States, Middle East and Asia, where there is significant demand for chemical products. We are also active in battery chemicals projects and we are engaging with clients on implementing lower carbon solutions on their existing and new facilities. We have participated in a wide variety of LNG developments, including liquefaction, floating LNG facilities and regasification terminals. Our work in LNG has included feasibility studies, technology evaluations, technical audits, process equipment optimization and selection, basic design, project specifications development, permitting support, front-end engineering and design, detailed EPC and start-up assistance. In the nuclear project services market, we provide a full range of services for small modular reactor technologies and operations support for existing nuclear power facilities and managing waste. Through our relationship with NuScale, we can offer a complete project solution for carbon free power by utilizing NuScale's proprietary SMR technology, a market that is gaining significant momentum with the push to more sustainable energy sources. 5 Urban Solutions Our Urban Solutions segment provides EPC and project management services to the advanced technologies, life sciences, mining and metals, and infrastructure industries, as well as professional staffing services. For the advanced technologies market, we provide program management and EPC services to a wide variety of companies on a global basis. Our experience spans a wide variety of market segments, including advanced materials, data storage and computing, fast-moving consumer goods, food and beverage, semiconductors, smart batteries and specialty products. We specialize in designing projects that incorporate lean manufacturing concepts while also satisfying client sustainability goals. In life sciences, we provide front end studies and EPC services to the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical devices and animal health industries. We also specialize in providing validation and commissioning services where we not only bring new facilities into production, but we also extend the life, or improve efficiencies, of existing facilities. We believe the ability to complete projects on a large-scale basis, especially in a business where time to market is critical, enables us to better serve our clients and is a key competitive advantage. In mining and metals, we provide a full range of services to our clients who produce a variety of commodities, including bauxite, copper, gold, iron ore, diamond, alumina, aluminum and phosphates. We have the experience required to support the increasing demand for battery metals, including lithium, platinum and nickel, due to urbanization and the transition to clean energy. We also serve the fertilizer industry and provide services in the downstream metals market. Our services include conceptual and feasibility studies through detailed EPC, commissioning and startup support. Many of these opportunities are being developed in remote and logistically challenging environments, such as the Andes Mountains, Western Australia and Africa. We believe we are one of the few companies with the size, regional presence and experience to execute large scale mining and metals projects in these difficult and remote locations. We are an industry leader in developing infrastructure projects such as roads, highways, bridges and rail for governments, with particular interest in large, complex projects. We provide a broad range of services including consulting, design, planning, financial structuring, engineering and construction. We also provide long-term operation and maintenance services for transit and highway projects. Our projects may involve the use of public/private partnerships, which allow us to develop and finance deals in concert with public entities for projects such as toll roads and rail lines that would not have otherwise been undertaken with public funding alone. Continuing urbanization and the replacement and expansion of aging infrastructure in North America continues to drive project opportunities. Historically, we have also offered a full range of services to the power industry including EPC, program management, startup and commissioning and technical services to utilities, independent power producers, original equipment manufacturers and other third parties. In recent years, this has become an increasingly smaller component of our business, though some projects remain in our portfolio. The segment's staffing services are provided through TRS Staffing Solutions®. TRS is a global enterprise of staffing specialists that provides the company and third-party clients with technical, professional and craft resources either on a contract or permanent placement basis. Mission Solutions Mission Solutions is a provider of high-end technical solutions to the U.S. and other governments. The segment's nuclear and civil business holds a tier 1 position with differentiated expertise in managing complex national security missions across the Department of Energy and the National Nuclear Security Administration. We deliver solutions for nuclear security and operations, nuclear waste management and laboratory management. Additionally, we are an industry leader in nuclear remediation at governmental facilities providing site management, environmental remediation, and decommissioning of facilities and have been successful in addressing environmental and regulatory challenges associated with legacy and operational nuclear sites. We also provide services to commercial nuclear clients. In civil services, we are a partner to FEMA for disaster recovery and are one of their top contractors. In defense, we deliver operations and maintenance, global logistics, EPC, life support and operations of mission critical facilities across U.S. military service organizations. We can rapidly mobilize people and equipment to deliver solutions across the globe and in the harshest environments. We believe we can deliver the solutions to our military clients no matter how remote the location or how quickly services are required. From life support and logistics services for special forces across Africa, to building and managing facilities for Afghan evacuees in the U.S., to building a runway on Ascension Island, we believe we have the people, tools and skills to provide services that are unmatched among our peers. 6 For our intelligence clients, we have more than 600 cleared personnel providing critical infrastructure solutions such as data center management, operations and maintenance of secure facilities and technology platform services. We construct and renovate secure facilities for the intelligence community in more than 20 countries, and support both enduring and contingency missions. We believe we are trusted by our clients to ensure their mission success. Other Our Other segment includes the operations of NuScale, in which we are the majority investor. NuScale has developed an NRC standard design approved SMR technology, which we believe will be a leader in the development of light water, passively safe SMRs, providing us with significant future project opportunities. Discontinued Operations The sale of the North American portion of our AMECO equipment business was completed in May 2021. In the first quarter of 2021, we also committed to a plan to sell our Stork business. Both Stork and the remaining AMECO operations are reported as Disc Ops for all periods presented. AMECO provides integrated construction equipment, tool, scaffolding and fleet service solutions to the company and third-party clients in a focused number of locations around the world for construction projects and client production assets. Stork provides asset maintenance and asset integrity services to the oil and gas, chemicals, life sciences, power, mining and metals, consumer products and manufacturing industries.

Backlog is adjusted to reflect any known project cancellations, revisions to project scope and cost, foreign currency exchange 7 fluctuations and project deferrals, as appropriate. The terms and conditions of some contracts include elements of both lump- sum and reimbursable contracts. Also, certain contracts may be converted from reimbursable to lump-sum. Due to additional factors outside of our control, such as changes in project schedules, we cannot accurately predict the exact timing that our December 31, 2021 backlog will be earned as revenue. Accordingly, backlog is not necessarily indicative of future earnings or revenues and no assurances can be provided that we will ultimately realize revenue on our backlog. The following table sets forth our changes in consolidated backlog: Backlog at beginning of year New awards Adjustments and cancellations, net(1) Work performed Backlog at end of year 2021 2020 (in millions) $ $ 23,144 8,753 (633) (12,330) 18,934 $ $ 29,392 7,459 331 (14,038) 23,144 (1) During 2021, we removed $2 billion from backlog due to the cancellation of a steel project and a chemicals project. In 2022, we expect to perform approximately 50% of our total backlog reported as of December 31, 2021, which is in line with the last three years. Types of Contracts While the basic terms and conditions of the contracts that we perform may vary considerably, we typically perform our work under two types of contracts: (a) reimbursable contracts and (b) lump-sum or guaranteed maximum contracts. In some markets, we are seeing hybrid contracts containing both lump-sum and reimbursable elements. As of December 31, 2021, the following table summarizes contract type within our ending backlog: Reimbursable Lump-Sum and Guaranteed Maximum December 31, 2021 (in millions) (percentage) $ 6,760 12,174 36 % 64 % In accordance with industry practice, most of our contracts are subject to termination at the discretion of our client. In such situations, our contracts typically provide for the payment of fees earned through the date of termination and the reimbursement of costs incurred including demobilization costs. Under reimbursable contracts, the client reimburses us based upon negotiated rates and pays us a pre-determined fee, or a fee based upon a percentage of the cost incurred in completing the project. Our profit may be in the form of a fee, a simple markup applied to labor cost incurred in performing 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 cost incurred. In some cases, reimbursable contracts may be converted into lump-sum contracts. Our Mission Solutions segment, primarily acting as a prime contractor or a major subcontractor for a number of government programs, generally performs its services under reimbursable contracts subject to applicable statutes and regulations. In many cases, these contracts include incentive fee arrangements. The programs may span many years and may be implemented by awards under multiple contracts. Some of our government contracts are known as indefinite delivery indefinite quantity (“IDIQ”) 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 does not require 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. Under lump-sum contracts, we typically bid based upon specifications provided by the client. This type of contracting presents risks because it requires us to predetermine the work to be performed, the project execution schedule and all costs associated with the work. Another type of lump-sum contract is a negotiated fixed-price contract, under which we are selected as contractor first, and then we negotiate price with the client. Negotiated fixed-price contracts frequently occur in single-responsibility arrangements where we perform some of the work before negotiating the total price for the project. Another type of lump-sum contract is a unit price contract under which we are paid a set amount for every “unit” of work 8 performed. If we perform well under these types of contracts, we can benefit from cost savings. However, if the project does not proceed as originally planned, we may not be able to recover cost overruns except in certain situations. Guaranteed maximum price contracts are 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 may receive the benefit of the cost savings based upon a negotiated agreement with the client. Some of our contracts, regardless of type, may operate under joint ventures or other teaming arrangements. Typically, we enter into these arrangements with reputable companies with whom we have worked previously. These arrangements are generally made to strengthen our market position or technical skills, or where the size, scale or location of the project directs the use of such arrangements. Competition We are one of the world’s larger providers of engineering, procurement, construction, fabrication and modularization, operations, maintenance and asset integrity, and project management services. The markets served by our business are highly competitive and, for the most part, require substantial resources and highly skilled and experienced technical personnel. A large number of companies compete against us, including U.S.-based companies such as AECOM, Amentum Services, Inc., Bechtel Group, Inc., EMCOR Group, Inc., Jacobs Engineering Group, Inc., KBR, Inc., Kiewit Corporation, Granite Construction, Inc. and Quanta Services, Inc., and international-based companies such as ACS Actividades de Construccion y Servicios, Balfour Beatty plc, Chiyoda Corporation, Hyundai Engineering & Construction Company, Ltd., JGC Corporation, McDermott International, Inc., Petrofac Limited, SNC-Lavalin Group, Inc., Samsung Engineering, Stantec Inc., Technip Energies N.V., Wood Group plc, and WorleyParsons Limited. Competition for our Energy Solutions and Urban Solutions segments is based on an 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. We believe our engineering, procurement, fabrication and construction business derives its competitive strength from our market diversity, excellence in execution, reputation for quality, technology, cost-effectiveness, worldwide procurement capability, project management expertise, geographic coverage, ability to meet client requirements by performing construction on either a union or an open shop basis, ability to execute complex projects of varying sizes, strong safety record and lengthy experience with a wide range of services and technologies. In Urban Solutions, temporary staffing is a highly fragmented market with over 1,000 companies competing globally. The key competitive factors in this business line are price, service, quality, client relationships, breadth of service and the ability to identify and retain qualified personnel and geographic coverage. In our Mission Solutions segment, key competitive factors are primarily centered on performance, qualified personnel and the ability to provide the design, engineering, planning, management and project execution skills required to complete complex projects in a safe, timely, cost-efficient and compliant manner. Raw Materials The principal products we use in our business include structural steel, metal plate, concrete, cable and various electrical and mechanical components. These products and components are subject to raw material (aluminum, copper, nickel, iron ore, etc.) availability and pricing fluctuations, which we monitor on a regular basis. We have access to numerous global supply sources; however, the availability and cost of these products, components and raw materials may vary significantly from year to year due to various factors including the logistics market, client demand, producer capacity, inflation, market conditions and specific material shortages. Compliance with Government Regulations, Including Environmental, Safety and Health Matters We provide services at sites throughout the world. Work at some of these sites involves activities related to nuclear facilities, hazardous waste, hydrocarbon production, distribution and transport, the military and infrastructure. Some of our work can be performed adjacent to environmentally sensitive locations such as wetlands, lakes and rivers. We also contract with governments to remediate hazardous materials, including chemical agents, as well as to decontaminate and decommission nuclear sites. These activities can require us to manage, handle, remove, treat, transport and dispose of toxic, radioactive or hazardous substances, and are subject to many environmental, health and safety laws and regulations. We believe that we are compliant with all environmental, health and safety laws and regulations. We further believe that any accruals with respect to future environmental costs are adequate and that any future costs will not have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations. 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 9 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. Human Capital Management We have built a high-performance culture with purpose and foster a diverse and inclusive workplace as a business imperative because people are our single greatest asset. A high performance culture, where everyone is treated fairly and respectfully and has equal access to opportunities based on capabilities and performance, regardless of background, raises both the individual and collective performance of our company. Our culture drives employee engagement, productivity and a sustainable competitive advantage. The following summarizes our human capital information as of December 31, 2021: Salaried Employees Craft and Hourly Employees TRS Agency Total Number of Employees 19,529 18,477 2,576 40,582 The number of craft and hourly employees can vary in relation to the number, size and phase of execution of our projects. We have employees in the following regions: Region North America Europe, Africa and Middle East Central and South America Asia Pacific (includes Australia) Health and Safety % of Global Workforce 36 % 21 % 32 % 11 % Safety is one of our core values. We are committed to taking care of our employees and preventing injuries in our offices and project locations. Our robust programs and procedures help us mitigate the hazards inherent in the work we do. We are committed to fostering a caring, preventative culture founded on proactive action by engaged employees. We call this Safer TogetherSM. Our 2021 safety performance (calculated in accordance with OSHA record keeping requirements) resulted in a total case incident rate of 0.37 with COVID cases included (or 0.33 with COVID cases excluded), which both outperformed our goal of less than 0.40 (excluding COVID cases) and well below the comparable industry benchmarks. In response to COVID, we implemented a number of measures to protect the well-being of our employees and mitigate COVID transmission within our offices and on our projects. In 2020, we established a global COVID task force and implemented actions to empower remote working, restrict non-essential business travel, enhance sanitation at our offices and project sites, and other return-to-work measures. In 2021, the global COVID task force continued to provide guidance for our sites and offices as the pandemic progressed and regulations changed in various locations. We promoted our existing employee assistance program to support employee well-being with a focus on mental health. We also issued an updated workplace flexibility policy for our employees who are not required to be onsite or in the office. Diversity, Equity and Inclusion We are committed to advancing Diversity, Equity and Inclusion ("DE&I"). We believe that every voice matters, and we value DE&I at every level of our organization. We encourage diversity of cultures, innovation and perspectives as we build inclusive, high-performance teams. We listen actively, respect one another and foster an environment with a sense of pride and belonging. We engage and partner with stakeholders who represent and support gender, generation, sexual orientation, mental and physical ability, race and ethnic diversity. We encourage knowledge sharing among our employees and stakeholders. We are focused on delivering four key impact pillars to advance DE&I: • Champion an inclusive culture; 10 • • • Recruit, develop and retain talent; Enhance employee experience; and Improve social progress and impact. We work with a variety of outreach, community and education organizations, including a range of universities. In 2021, we added three historically Black colleges and universities ("HBCUs") to Fluor’s Global University Sponsorship Program ("GUSP"). We announced that we will provide up to $1 million, including matching donations over three years, to North Carolina Agricultural & Technical State University, Prairie View A&M University in Texas and Tuskegee University in Alabama. We are committed to strengthening our talent pipeline by expanding diversity in recruiting. We post our job openings internally and externally to reach a broad, diverse pool of candidates from all backgrounds. We have implemented a balanced slate candidate selection practice, which enables the identification of diverse candidates for positions across our offices and business lines. We have established six regional inclusion councils to drive region-specific diversity and inclusion. In addition, we currently have four employee resource groups ("ERGs"): Black Employee Alliance (“BEA”), Emerging Leaders Group ("ELG"), Graduates Advancing to Professionalism ("GAP") and Growing Representation & Opportunity for Women ("GROW"). ERGs are a critical component of strengthening our culture of inclusion by encouraging employee engagement, attracting and retaining talent and offering allyship of shared identity individuals to share new ideas, insights and perspectives. Development Opportunities One of our top priorities is to provide ongoing training and development for our employees through multiple venues, including Fluor University, our online learning platform. Employees can select from among a wide variety of self-paced, online, virtual and instructor-led training courses. Topics range from our internally developed Fluor University courses focused on discipline-specific training, to commercially available technical learning and general knowledge topics, such as leadership, business acumen, communication and inclusive management. In 2021, our employees earned more than 55,000 credit hours through Fluor University. We have also developed several programs to help employees advance their careers, including Fluor Fellows for our technical experts and Mentoring Circles. In 2021, we also launched a new career development website. Community Responsibility Part of building a high-performance culture with purpose is offering employees robust and enriching opportunities to help build a better future. For more than 40 years, our employee volunteer program, Fluor Cares, has given employees a conduit for giving back to the communities where we live and work. In 2021, we launched a rebranded Fluor Cares 2.0 platform which consolidated both employee giving and volunteerism under the Fluor Cares banner and expanded the program to include 13 countries. The company match of 25 percent was expanded to several new cause categories, offering millions of nonprofit organizations to which employees can contribute. Despite lingering COVID protocols, our employees volunteered their time to hundreds of charitable organizations and causes. We remained true to our legacy of giving back even as a variety of natural disasters, regional unrest and the continuing impact of COVID impacted lives and communities in far-reaching and profound ways. In 2021, Fluor and our employees pledged money to provide critical relief and support to those in need. Donations included emergency relief and resettlement support for more than 7,000 Afghan evacuees and contributions to help victims of tornadoes in the Midwest, wildfires in California and the super typhoon in the Philippines. We also provided more than 865,000 meals as well as clothing and warm blankets for more than 2,700 families around the globe. 11 Information about our Executive Officers The following information is being furnished with respect to our executive officers as of January 31, 2022: Name Alan L.

Risk Factors We operate in a complex and rapidly changing global environment that involves numerous known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and stock price. The risks described below highlight some of the factors that have affected and could affect us in the future. We may also be affected by unknown risks or risks that we currently think are immaterial. If any such events actually occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and stock price could be materially adversely affected. 13 Summary Risk Factors The following summarizes the risks and uncertainties that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operation and stock price. You should read this summary together with the more detailed description of each risk factor contained below. Risks Related to our Operations • COVID has had and could continue to have a material adverse effect on our business operations, results of operations and financial position. • We are vulnerable to the cyclical nature of the markets we serve. • Our revenue and earnings are largely dependent on new awards, which are driven by our clients. • The nature of our contracts, particularly our lump-sum contracts, subject us to risks associated with delays and cost overruns, which may not be recoverable and may result in reduced profits or losses that could have a material impact on us. • Intense competition in the EPC industry can impact our revenue and profits. • The success of teaming arrangements and joint ventures depends on the satisfactory performance by our venture partners over whom we may have little or no control, and the failure of those partners to perform their obligations could impose additional obligations on us that could have a material impact on us. • Cybersecurity breaches of our systems and information technology could adversely impact us. • We have international operations that are subject to foreign economic and political uncertainties and risks. Unexpected and adverse changes in the foreign countries in which we operate could result in project disruptions, increased cost and potential losses. • Our backlog is subject to unexpected adjustments and cancellations. • Our employees work on projects that are inherently dangerous and in locations where there are high security risks, and a failure to maintain a safe work site could result in significant losses. • Our businesses could be materially and adversely affected by events outside of our control. • Our actual results could differ from the assumptions and estimates used to prepare our financial statements. • If we experience delays or defaults in client payments, we could be negatively impacted. • We are dependent upon suppliers and subcontractors to complete many of our contracts. • Our U.S. government contracts and contracting rights may be terminated or otherwise adversely impacted at any time, and our inability to win or renew government contracts during regulated procurement processes could harm our operations and reduce our projects and revenues. • Our success requires us to hire and retain qualified personnel. • Our effective tax rate and tax positions may vary. • Systems and information technology interruption, as well as new systems implementation, could adversely impact our ability to operate and our operating results. • It can be very difficult and expensive to obtain the insurance we need for our business operations. • If we do not have adequate indemnification for our nuclear services, it could adversely affect our business and financial condition. • Foreign currency risks could have an adverse impact on us. • The loss of one or a few clients could have an adverse effect on us. • Damage to our reputation could in turn cause damage to our business. • Our business may be negatively impacted if we are unable to adequately protect intellectual property rights. • Our results of operations could be adversely affected as a result of asset impairments. • Climate change and related environmental issues could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operation. • Increasing scrutiny and changing expectations from investors with respect to sustainability practices may impose additional costs on us or expose us to reputational or other risks. Risks Related to Indebtedness and other Credit Related Risks • Adverse credit and financial market conditions could impair our, our clients' and our partners' borrowing capacity, which could negatively affect us. • Our indebtedness could lead to adverse consequences or adversely affect our financial position and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations under such indebtedness, and any refinancing of this debt could be at significantly higher interest rates. • We may be unable to win new contract awards if we cannot provide clients with financial assurances. 14 Legal and Regulatory Risks • We are involved in litigation and regulatory proceedings, potential liability claims and contract disputes that may have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations. • Our failure to recover adequately on claims against project owners, subcontractors or suppliers for payment or performance could have a material effect on our financial results. • We could be adversely affected by violations of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and similar worldwide anti- bribery laws. • We could be adversely impacted if we fail to comply with domestic and international import and export laws. • Employee, agent or partner misconduct or our overall failure to comply with laws or regulations could impair our ability to compete for contracts. • New or changing legal requirements could adversely affect us. • Past and future environmental, safety and health regulations could impose significant additional costs on us. Risks Related to Mergers & Acquisitions and Strategic Plans • We may be unsuccessful implementing our strategic and operational initiatives. • We may be unsuccessful integrating acquisitions or capitalizing on investments we make. Risks Related to our Preferred Stock and our Equity • Conversion of our CPS will dilute the ownership interest of existing common stockholders or may otherwise depress the price of our common stock. • Our CPS has rights, preferences and privileges that are not held by, and are preferential to the rights of, our common stockholders, which could adversely affect the value of the common stock, our liquidity and our financial condition. • Provisions attendant to our preferred stock may deter or prevent a business combination that may be favorable to our common stockholders. • In the event we issue additional equity securities, stockholders' ownership percentages would be diluted. • Delaware law and our charter documents may impede or discourage a takeover or change of control. Risks Related to our Operations COVID has had and could continue to have a material adverse effect on our business operations, results of operations and financial position. There have been extraordinary and wide-ranging actions taken by international, federal, state and local public health and governmental authorities in response to COVID, including vaccine mandates, quarantines, government restrictions on movement, business closures and suspensions, canceled events and activities, isolation, and other voluntary or mandated changes in behavior. Both the outbreak of the disease and actions in response thereto have created significant uncertainty and economic volatility and disruption, which have impacted and may continue to impact our workforce and operations and have materially adversely affected and may continue to materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial performance, including, but not limited to, the following: • We have experienced, and may continue to experience, reductions in demand for our services and the delay or abandonment of ongoing or anticipated projects due to our clients’, suppliers’ and other third parties’ diminished financial conditions or financial distress, as well as governmental budget constraints. These impacts are expected to continue or worsen if stay-at-home, social distancing, travel restrictions and other similar orders or restrictions remain in place for an extended period of time or are re-imposed after being lifted or eased. • Some clients have been, and may in the future be, unable to meet their payment obligations to us in a timely manner, including as a result of deteriorating financial condition. Further, other third parties, such as suppliers, subcontractors, joint venture partners and other outside business partners, have experienced significant disruptions in their ability to satisfy their obligations with respect to us, or they may be unable to do so in the future altogether. • While we have had phased re-openings of some offices in accordance with local guidelines from governing agencies, many of our employees continue to work remotely. While many of our employees can effectively perform their responsibilities while working remotely, some work may not be completed as efficiently as if it were performed on site. Additionally, we may be exposed to unexpected cybersecurity risks and additional information technology- related expenses as a result of these remote working requirements. • We are subject to various vaccine mandates issued by clients or governments, and it is possible that additional mandates may be announced by other jurisdictions that could impact our workforce and operations. Such mandates 15 • • could negatively impact our ability to attract and retain qualified employees, increase costs and administrative burden and make us subject to fines. Illness, travel restrictions or other workforce disruptions have affected, and may continue to affect, our supply chain, our ability to timely and satisfactorily complete our clients’ projects, our ability to provide services to our clients or our other business processes. Jurisdictions where we have operations may continue to close borders, impose prolonged quarantines and further restrict travel and business activity, which could materially impair our ability to conduct our operations, to source supplies through the global supply chain and to identify, pursue and capture new business opportunities, and which could continue to restrict the ability of our employees to access their workplaces. We also face the possibility of increased overhead or other expenses resulting from compliance with any current or future government orders or other measures enacted in response to COVID. • We operate in many countries around the world, and certain of those countries’ governments may be unable to effectively mitigate the financial or other impacts of COVID on their economies and workforces and our operations therein. The extent to which COVID will continue to impact us depends on numerous evolving factors and future developments that we are not currently able to predict and may also exacerbate other risks discussed in this 2021 10-K, any of which could have a material adverse effect on us, our business operations, results of operations and financial position. We are vulnerable to the cyclical nature of the markets we serve. The demand for our services is dependent upon the existence of projects with EPC needs. Our clients' interest in approving new projects, budgets for capital expenditures and need for our services have in the past been, and may in the future be, adversely affected by, among other things, poor economic conditions, low oil prices, political uncertainties and currency devaluations. Clients have been and remain selective in how they allocate and expend their capital, which has resulted in a reduction of the number of projects we may bid on and win, especially the larger scale projects in which we specialize. For example, in our Energy Solutions segment, capital expenditures by our clients are influenced by factors such as prevailing prices and expectations about future prices for underlying commodities, technological advances, the costs of exploration, production and delivery of product, domestic and international political, military, regulatory and economic conditions and other similar factors. The decline in oil prices in the first quarter of 2020 significantly reduced demand for our services. There is no guarantee that the current recovery in oil prices will be sustained, and the timing and extent of any future improvements in demand remain uncertain. Industries served by that segment and many of the others we serve have historically been and will continue to be vulnerable to general downturns, which in turn could materially and adversely affect the demand for our services. Our revenue and earnings are largely dependent on new awards, which are driven by our clients. The awarding and timing of projects is unpredictable and driven by our clients. Awards, including expansions of existing projects, often involve complex and lengthy negotiations and competitive bidding processes. These processes can be impacted by a wide variety of factors including a client's decision to not proceed with the development of a project, governmental approvals, financing contingencies, oil prices, environmental conditions and overall market and economic conditions. We may not win contracts that we have bid on due to price, a client's perception of our ability to perform and/or perceived technology advantages held by others. Many of our competitors may be more inclined to take greater risks or include terms and conditions that we might not deem acceptable, especially when the markets for the services we typically offer are relatively soft. Because a significant portion of our revenue is generated from large projects, our results can fluctuate depending on whether and when large project awards occur and the commencement and progress of work under large contracts already awarded. As a result, we are subject to the risk of losing new awards to competitors or the risk that revenue may not be derived from awarded projects as quickly as anticipated. Additionally, uncertain economic and political conditions may make it difficult for our clients, our vendors and us to accurately forecast and plan future business activities. For example, changes to U.S. policies related to global trade and tariffs in recent years, and responsive changes in policy by foreign jurisdictions, have resulted in uncertainty surrounding the future of the global economy as well as retaliatory trade measures implemented by other countries. The nature of our contracts, particularly our lump-sum contracts, subject us to risks associated with delays and cost overruns, which may not be recoverable and may result in reduced profits or losses that could have a material impact on us. Because our projects are often technically complex, with multiple phases occurring over several years, we incur risks in our project execution activities. These risks could result in project delays, cost overruns or other problems and can include the following: 16 • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Incorrect assumptions related to productivity, scheduling estimates or future economic conditions, including with respect to the impacts of inflation on lump-sum contracts; Unanticipated technical problems, including design or engineering issues; Inaccurate representations of site conditions and unanticipated changes in the project execution plan; Project modifications creating unanticipated costs or delays and failure to properly manage project modifications; Inability to achieve guaranteed performance or quality standards with regard to engineering, construction or project management obligations; Insufficient or inadequate project execution tools and systems needed to record, track, forecast and control cost and schedule; Reliance on historical cost and/or execution data that is not representative of current economic and/or execution conditions; Failure to accurately estimate the timing and cost of projects, including due to inflation, supply chain disruption, rising construction costs or unforeseen increases in the cost of labor; Unanticipated increases in the cost of raw materials, components or equipment, including due to inflation or the imposition of import tariffs; Failure to properly make judgments in accordance with applicable professional standards, including engineering standards; Failure to properly assess and update appropriate risk mitigation strategies and measures; Difficulties related to the performance of our clients, partners, subcontractors, suppliers or other third parties; Delays or productivity issues caused by weather; and Changes in local laws or difficulties or delays in obtaining permits, rights of way or approvals. These and other risks have in the past and may in the future result in our failure to achieve contractual cost or schedule commitments, safety performance, overall client satisfaction or other performance criteria. As a result, we may receive lower fees or lose our ability to earn incentive fees. In other cases, our fee will not change but we will have to continue to perform work without additional fees until the performance criteria is achieved. We may also be required to pay liquidated damages if we fail to complete a project on schedule. In addition, if we fail to meet guaranteed performance or quality standards, we may be held responsible under the guarantee or warranty provisions of our contract for cost impact to the client, generally in the form of contractually agreed-upon liquidated damages or an obligation to re-perform work. To the extent these events occur, the total cost to the project (including any liquidated damages we become liable to pay) could be material and could, in some circumstances, equal or exceed the full value of the contract. In such events, our financial condition or results of operations could be materially and negatively impacted. In circumstances where the contract is lump-sum or the revenue is otherwise fixed, we bear significant risk for delays and cost overruns. Reimbursable contract types, such as those that include negotiated hourly billing rates, may restrict the kinds or amounts of costs that are reimbursable, therefore exposing us to the risk that we may incur certain costs in executing these contracts that are above our estimates and not recoverable from our clients. Intense competition in the EPC industry can impact our revenue and profits. We serve markets that are highly competitive and in which a large number of multinational companies compete. These markets require substantial resources and investment in technology and skilled personnel. We also see a continuing influx of non-traditional competitors offering below-market pricing while accepting greater risk. Competition places downward pressure on our contract prices and profit margins, and could cause us to accept contractual terms and conditions that are not normal or customary, thereby increasing the risk of losses on such contracts. Intense competition is expected to continue in these markets, presenting us with significant challenges in our ability to maintain acceptable profit margins. To the extent we are unable to meet these competitive challenges, we could lose revenue and experience reduced profitability. 17 The success of teaming arrangements and joint ventures depends on the satisfactory performance by our venture partners over whom we may have little or no control, and the failure of those partners to perform their obligations could impose additional obligations on us that could have a material impact on us. In the ordinary course of business in our industry, we execute specific projects and otherwise conduct certain operations through joint ventures, consortiums, partnerships and other collaborative arrangements (collectively, "ventures"). We have various ownership interests in these ventures, with such ownership typically being proportionate to our decision- making and distribution rights. The ventures generally contract directly with our client; however, services may be performed directly by the venture, or may be performed by us, our partners, or a combination thereof. Our success in many markets is impacted by the presence or capability of our partners. If we are unable to compete alone, or with a quality partner, our ability to win work and successfully complete our contracts may be impacted. Differences in opinions or views between venture partners can result in delayed decision-making or failure to agree on material issues, which could adversely affect the business and operations of our ventures. In many of the countries in which we engage in joint ventures, it may be difficult to enforce our contractual rights under the applicable joint venture agreement. At times, we also participate in ventures where we are not a controlling party or where we team with unaffiliated parties on a particular project. In such instances, we may have limited control over venture decisions and actions, including internal controls and financial reporting, which may have an impact on our business. If internal control problems arise within a venture, or if our venture partners have financial or operational issues, there could be a material impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations. The success of our ventures also depends, in large part, on the satisfactory performance by our venture partners of their obligations, including their obligation to commit working capital, equity or credit support as required by the venture and to support their indemnification and other contractual obligations. If our venture partners fail to satisfactorily perform their obligations, the 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 and to meet any performance guarantees. From time to time, in order to establish or preserve a relationship, or to better ensure venture success, we may accept risks or responsibilities for the venture that are not necessarily proportionate with the reward we expect to receive or that may differ from risks or responsibilities we would normally accept in our own operations. We may also be subject to joint and several liability under the contracts for venture projects. These additional obligations could result in reduced profits or, in some cases, increased liabilities or significant losses for us with respect to the venture, and in turn, our business and operations. In addition, a failure by a venture partner to comply with applicable regulations could negatively impact our business and reputation and could result in fines, penalties, suspension or, in the case of government contracts, even debarment. Cybersecurity breaches of our systems and information technology could adversely impact our ability to operate. We utilize, develop, install and maintain a number of information technology systems. Various privacy and security laws require us to protect sensitive and confidential information from disclosure. In addition, we are bound by our contracts, as well as our own business practices, to protect confidential and proprietary information. Our computer systems, as well as those of our clients, contractors and other vendors, face the threat of unauthorized access, computer hacking, viruses, malicious code, cyber attacks, phishing and other security incursions and system disruptions. While we endeavor to maintain industry-accepted security measures and technology to secure our computer systems and while we endeavor to ensure our cloud vendors that store our data maintain similar measures, these systems and the information stored on these systems are still subject to threats. There can be no assurance that our efforts will protect us against all threats. Further, as these security threats continue to evolve, we may be required to devote additional resources to protect, detect and respond against such threats. A party who circumvents our security measures, or those of our clients, contractors or other vendors, could misappropriate confidential or proprietary information, improperly manipulate data, or cause damage or interruptions to systems. Any of these events could damage our reputation, result in litigation and regulatory fines and penalties, or have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Furthermore, while we maintain insurance that specifically covers cybersecurity threats, our coverage may not sufficiently cover all types of losses or claims that may arise. We have international operations that are subject to foreign economic and political uncertainties and risks. Unexpected and adverse changes in the foreign countries in which we operate could result in project disruptions, increased cost and potential losses. Our business is subject to international economic and political conditions that change (sometimes frequently) for reasons that are beyond our control. We expect that a significant portion of our revenue and profits will continue to come from international projects for the foreseeable future. 18 Operating in the international marketplace exposes us to a number of risks including: • • • • • • • • • • • • abrupt changes in government policies, laws, treaties (including those impacting trade), regulations or leadership; embargoes or other trade restrictions, including sanctions; restrictions on currency movement; tax or tariff changes and withholding requirements; currency exchange rate fluctuations; changes in labor conditions and difficulties in staffing and managing international operations, including logistical and communication challenges; U.S. government trade or other policy changes in relation to the foreign countries in which we operate; other regional, social, political and economic instability, including recessions and other economic crises; natural disasters and public health crises, including pandemics; expropriation and nationalization of our assets; international hostilities; and unrest, civil strife, acts of war, terrorism and insurrection. Also, the lack of a well-developed legal system in some of the countries where we operate may make it difficult to enforce our contractual rights or to defend ourself against claims made by others. We operate in locations where there is a significant amount of political risk. In addition, military action or continued unrest could impact the supply or pricing of oil, disrupt our operations in the region and elsewhere, and increase our security costs. Our level of exposure to these risks may vary with each project, depending on the location of the project and its stage of completion. For example, our risk exposure with respect to a project in an early development phase, such as engineering, will generally be less than our risk exposure on a project that is in the construction phase. To the extent that our international business is affected by unexpected and adverse foreign economic and political conditions and risks, we may experience project disruptions and losses. Our backlog is subject to unexpected adjustments and cancellations. Our backlog generally consists of projects for which we have an executed contract or commitment with a client and reflects our expected revenue from the contract or commitment, which is often subject to revision over time. We cannot guarantee that the revenue projected in our backlog will be realized or profitable or will not be subject to delay or suspension. Project cancellations, scope adjustments or deferrals, or foreign currency fluctuations may occur with respect to contracts reflected in our backlog and could reduce the dollar amount of our backlog and the revenue and profits that we actually earn; or, may cause the rate at which we perform on our backlog to decrease. Most of our contracts have termination for convenience provisions in them allowing clients to cancel projects. Our contracts typically provide for the payment of fees earned through the date of termination and the reimbursement of costs incurred including demobilization costs. In addition, projects may remain in our backlog for an extended period of time. During periods of economic slowdown, or decreases and/ or instability in oil prices, the risk of projects being suspended, delayed or canceled generally increases. Finally, poor project or contract performance could also impact our backlog and profits. Such developments could have a material adverse effect on our business and our profits. 19 Our employees work on projects that are inherently dangerous and in locations where there are high security risks, and a failure to maintain a safe work site could result in significant losses. We often work on complex projects, frequently in geographically remote or high-risk locations that are subject to political, social or economic risks, or war or civil unrest. In those locations where we have employees or operations, we may expend significant efforts and incur substantial security costs to maintain safety. In addition, our project sites can place our employees and others near large equipment, dangerous processes or substances or highly regulated materials, and in challenging environments. Safety is a primary focus of our business and is critical to our reputation and performance. Many of our clients require that we meet certain safety criteria to be eligible to bid on contracts, and some of our contract fees or profits are subject to satisfying safety criteria. Unsafe work conditions also have the potential of increasing employee turnover, increasing project costs and raising our operating costs. If we fail to implement appropriate safety procedures and/ or if our procedures fail, our employees or others may suffer injuries or loss of life, the completion of a project could be delayed and we could experience investigations or litigation. Although we have a safety function to implement effective health, safety and environmental procedures throughout our company, the failure to comply with such procedures, client contracts or applicable regulations could subject us to losses and liability. Despite these activities we cannot guarantee the safety of our personnel, nor can we guarantee our work, equipment or supplies will be free from damage. Our businesses could be materially and adversely affected by events outside of our control. Extraordinary or force majeure events beyond our control, such as natural or man-made disasters, severe weather conditions, public health crises such as COVID, supply chain disruption, political crises or other catastrophic events, could negatively impact our ability to operate or increase our costs to operate. Such events may result in disruptions to our operations; evacuation of personnel; increased labor and material costs or shortages; inability to deliver materials, equipment and personnel to jobsites in accordance with contract schedules; and loss of productivity. We may remain obligated to perform our services after any such events, unless a contract provision provides us with relief from our obligations. The extra costs incurred as a result of these events may not be reimbursed by our clients. If we are not able to react quickly to such events, or if a high concentration of our projects are impacted by such an event, our operations may be adversely affected. In addition, if we cannot complete our contracts on time, we may be subject to potential liability claims by our clients, which may reduce our profits and result in losses. Our actual results could differ from the assumptions and estimates used to prepare our financial statements. In preparing our financial statements, we make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported values of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Areas requiring significant estimates by our management include: • • • • • • • • • recognition of revenue, costs, profits or losses; recognition of revenue related to project incentives, awards or other variable consideration we expect to receive; recognition of recoveries under contract change orders or claims; estimated amounts for project losses, warranty costs, contract close-out or other costs; collectability of receivables and the need and amount of any allowance; asset valuations; income tax provisions and related valuation allowances; determination of expense and potential liabilities under pension and other post-retirement benefit programs; and accruals for other estimated liabilities, including litigation and insurance reserves and receivables. Estimates are based on management's reasonable assumptions and experience, but are only estimates. Our actual business and financial results could differ from our estimates of such results due to changes in facts and circumstances, which could have a material negative impact on our financial condition and reported results of operations. Further, we recognize contract revenue as work on a contract progresses. The cumulative amount of revenue recorded on a contract at any point is that percentage of total estimated revenue that costs incurred to date bear to estimated total costs. Accordingly, contract revenue and total cost estimates are reviewed and revised as the work progresses. Adjustments are reflected in contract revenue in the period when such estimates are revised. Such adjustments could be material and could result in reduced profitability. 20 If we experience delays or defaults in client payments, we could be negatively impacted. Because of the nature of our contracts, we sometimes commit resources to projects prior to receiving payments from clients in amounts sufficient to cover expenditures as they come due. Some of our clients have found it difficult to pay our invoices timely, increasing the risk that our accounts receivable could become uncollectible and ultimately be written off. In certain cases, our clients for our large projects are project-specific entities that do not have significant assets other than their interests in the project. From time to time, it is difficult for us to collect payments owed to us by these clients. In addition, clients may request extension of the payment terms otherwise agreed to under our contracts. Delays in client payments may require us to make a working capital investment, which could impact our cash flows and liquidity. If a client fails to pay invoices on a timely basis or defaults, there could be a material adverse effect on our results of operations or liquidity. We are dependent upon suppliers and subcontractors to complete many of our contracts. Some of the work performed under our contracts is performed by third-party subcontractors. We also rely on third- party suppliers to provide much of the equipment and materials used for projects. If we are unable to hire qualified subcontractors or find qualified suppliers, our ability to successfully or timely 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 contract, we may suffer losses on these contracts. If a supplier or subcontractor fails to provide supplies, technology, equipment or services as required under a contract to us, our joint venture partner, our client or any other party involved in the project for any reason, or provides supplies, technology, equipment or services that are not an acceptable quality, we may be required to source those supplies, technology, equipment or services on a delayed basis or at a higher price than anticipated, which could impact our profitability. In addition, faulty workmanship, equipment or materials could impact the overall project, resulting in claims against us for failure to meet required project specifications. These risks may be intensified during an economic downturn if these suppliers or subcontractors experience financial difficulties or find it difficult to obtain sufficient financing to fund their operations or access to bonding, and are not able to provide the services or supplies necessary for our business. In addition, in instances where we rely on a limited number of suppliers or subcontractors, there may be no available replacement technology, equipment, materials or services on a timely basis or at the costs we had anticipated. A failure by a third-party subcontractor or supplier to comply with applicable laws, rules or regulations could negatively impact our business and reputation and could result in fines, penalties, suspension, or in the case of government contracts, even debarment. Our U.S. government contracts and contracting rights may be terminated or otherwise adversely impacted at any time, and our inability to win or renew government contracts during regulated procurement processes could harm our operations and reduce our projects and revenues. We have a significant portfolio of government contracts, including those that we have in place with the DOE and U.S. Department of Defense. U.S. government contracts are subject to various uncertainties, restrictions and regulations, including oversight audits by government agencies and profit and cost controls, which could result in withholding or delay of payments to us. U.S. government contracts are also subject to uncertainties associated with congressional funding, including the potential impacts of budget deficits, government shutdowns and federal sequestration. Changes in U.S. government priorities, which can occur due to policy changes or economic changes, could adversely impact our revenues. The U.S. government is under no obligation to maintain program funding at any specific level, and funds for a program may even be eliminated. Our U.S. government clients may terminate or decide not to renew our contracts with little or no prior notice. In addition, U.S. government contracts are subject to specific regulations such as 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. Failure to comply with any of these regulations and other government requirements may result in contract price adjustments, financial penalties or contract termination. Our U.S. government contracts are also subject to audits, cost reviews and investigations by U.S. government oversight agencies such as the U.S. Defense Contract Audit Agency (the "DCAA"). The DCAA reviews the adequacy of, and our compliance with, our internal controls and policies (including our labor, billing, accounting, purchasing, estimating, compensation and management information systems). The DCAA also has the ability to review how we have accounted for costs under the FAR and CAS. The DCAA presents its findings to the Defense Contract Management Agency ("DCMA"). Should the DCMA determine that we have not complied with the terms of our contract and applicable statutes and regulations, or if they believe that we have engaged in inappropriate accounting or other activities, payments to us may be disallowed or we could be required to refund previously collected payments. Additionally, we may be subject to criminal and civil penalties, suspension or debarment from future government contracts, and qui tam litigation brought by private individuals on behalf of the U.S. government under the False Claims Act, which could include claims for treble damages. These suits may remain under seal (and hence, be unknown to us) for some time while the government decides whether to intervene on behalf of the qui tam plaintiff. Furthermore, if we have significant disagreements with our government clients concerning costs incurred, negative publicity could arise, which could adversely affect our industry reputation and our ability to compete for new contracts in the government arena or otherwise. 21 Most U.S. government contracts are awarded through a rigorous competitive process. The U.S. government has increasingly relied upon multiple-year contracts with pre-established terms and conditions that generally require those contractors that have been previously awarded the contract to engage in an additional competitive bidding process for each task order issued under the contract. Such processes require successful contractors to anticipate requirements and develop rapid-response bid and proposal teams as well as dedicated supplier relationships and delivery systems to react to these needs. We face rigorous competition and significant pricing pressures in order to win these task orders. If we are not successful in containing costs or able to timely respond to government requests, we may not win additional awards. Moreover, even if we are qualified to work on a government contract, we may be impacted in our pursuit of work by government policies designed to protect small businesses and under- represented minority contractors. Many of our U.S. government contracts require security clearances. Depending upon the level of clearance required, security clearances can be difficult and time-consuming to obtain. If we or our employees are unable to obtain or retain necessary security clearances, we may not be able to win new business, and our existing government clients could terminate their contracts with us or decide not to renew them. Under the Budget Control Act of 2011, an automatic sequestration process, or across-the-board budget cuts, was triggered when the Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction failed to agree on a deficit reduction plan for the U.S. federal budget. The Budget Control Act of 2011 remains in place, extended through 2029, and absent additional legislative or other remedial action, the sequestration could require reduced U.S. federal government spending through 2029. A significant reduction in federal government spending or a change in budgetary priorities could reduce demand for our services, cancel or delay federal projects, and result in the closure of federal facilities and significant personnel reductions, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. Our success requires us to hire and retain qualified personnel. The success of our business is dependent upon being able to attract, develop and retain personnel, including engineers, project management, craft employees and management around the globe, who have the necessary and required experience and expertise, and who will perform these services at a reasonable and competitive rate. Competition for these and other experienced personnel is intense. It may be difficult to attract and retain qualified individuals with the expertise and in the timeframe demanded by our clients. In certain geographic areas, for example, we may be unable to satisfy the demand for our services because of our inability to deploy qualified personnel. Also, it may be difficult to replace personnel who hold government required credentials. Loss of the services of, or failure to recruit, qualified technical and management personnel could limit our ability to successfully complete existing projects and compete for new projects. As some of our executives and other key personnel approach retirement age or otherwise leave the company, we need to provide for smooth transitions, which may require that we devote time and resources to identify and integrate new personnel into leadership roles. Changes in our management team may disrupt our business and the failure to successfully transition and assimilate executives or other key personnel could adversely affect our results. If we are unable to employ a sufficient number of skilled personnel or effectively implement appropriate succession plans, our ability to pursue projects may be adversely affected, the costs of executing our existing and future projects may increase. In addition, the cost of providing our services, including the extent to which we utilize our workforce, affects our profitability. For example, the uncertainty of contract award timing can present difficulties in matching our workforce size with project needs. If an expected contract award is delayed or not received, we could incur costs resulting from excess staff, reductions in staff, or redundancy of facilities that could have a material adverse impact on us. Our effective tax rate and tax positions may vary. We are subject to income taxes where we do business. A change in tax laws, treaties or regulations, or their interpretation, in any country in which we operate could change our overall tax rate , which could have a material impact on our results of operations. In addition, significant judgment is required in determining our worldwide provision for income taxes and our judgments could prove inaccurate. There are many transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. We are regularly under audit by tax authorities, and our tax estimates and tax positions could be materially affected by many factors including the final outcome of tax audits and related litigation, the introduction of new tax accounting standards, legislation, regulations and related interpretations, our global mix of earnings, our ability to realize deferred tax assets and changes in uncertain tax positions. Future changes in our tax rate or adverse changes in tax laws could have a material adverse effect on our profitability and liquidity. 22 Systems and information technology interruption, as well as new systems implementation, could adversely impact our ability to operate and our operating results. We are heavily reliant on computer, information and communications technology and related systems, some of which are hosted by third party providers. From time to time, we experience system interruptions and delays that may be planned for upgrades or that may be unplanned. Unplanned interruptions could result from 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 interruptions, delays, loss of critical or sensitive data (including personal or financial data) or loss of funds; could delay or prevent operations (including the processing of transactions and reporting of financial results); and could adversely affect our reputation or our operating results. While we have and require the maintenance of reasonable safeguards designed to protect against unavailability or loss of data, these safeguards may not be sufficient. We may be required to incur significant costs to protect against or alleviate damage caused by systems interruptions and delays, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and cash flows. We continue to evaluate the need to upgrade and/or replace our systems and network infrastructure to protect our computing environment, to stay current on vendor supported products, to improve the efficiency of our systems and for other business reasons. The implementation of new systems and information technology could adversely impact our operations by imposing substantial capital expenditures, demands on management time and risks of delays or difficulties in transitioning to new systems. Our systems implementations also may not result in productivity improvements at the levels anticipated. Systems implementation disruption and any other information technology disruption, if not anticipated and appropriately mitigated, could have a material adverse effect on our business. It can be very difficult and expensive to obtain the insurance we need for our business operations. We maintain insurance both as a corporate risk management strategy and to satisfy the requirements of many of our contracts. Although we have 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, or that such insurance can be economically secured. For example, catastrophic events can result in decreased coverage limits, more limited coverage, increased premium costs or deductibles. We also monitor the financial health of our insurance. Our insurance is purchased from a number of leading providers, often in layered insurance or quota share arrangements. If any of our third party insurers fail, abruptly cancel our coverage or otherwise cannot satisfy their obligations to us, then our overall risk exposure and operational expenses could increase and our business operations could be interrupted. If we do not have adequate indemnification for our nuclear services, it could adversely affect our business and financial condition. We provide services to the DOE and the nuclear energy industry in the on-going maintenance and modification of nuclear facilities as well as decontamination and decommissioning activities of nuclear plants. The Price-Anderson Act generally indemnifies parties performing services to nuclear power plants and DOE contractors; however, not all of our activities are covered. Thus, if the Price-Anderson Act indemnification protections do not apply to our services, or if the exposure occurs outside of the U.S. in a region that does not have protections comparable to the Price-Anderson Act, our business and financial condition could be adversely affected by our client's refusal to contract with us, by our inability to obtain commercially reasonable insurance or third party indemnification, or by the potentially significant monetary damages we could incur. Foreign currency risks could have an adverse impact on revenue, earnings and/or backlog. Our contracts may subject us to foreign currency risk, particularly when project revenue is denominated in a currency different than the expected costs. A project may be denominated in different currencies at various points in time as a project progresses. We may attempt to minimize our exposure to foreign currency risk by obtaining contract provisions that protect us from foreign currency fluctuations and/or by implementing hedging strategies utilizing derivatives. However, these actions may not always eliminate all foreign currency risk, and as a result, our profitability could be affected. Our monetary assets and liabilities denominated in nonfunctional currencies are subject to remeasurement. In addition, the U.S. dollar value of our backlog may from time to time increase or decrease significantly due to foreign currency volatility. We may also be exposed to limitations on our ability to reinvest earnings from operations in one country to fund our operations in other countries. The loss of one or a few clients could have an adverse effect on us. A few clients, including the U.S. government, state governments and governmental agencies comprise a significant portion of our revenue. Although we have long-standing relationships with many of our significant clients, our clients may 23 unilaterally reduce, fail to renew or terminate their contracts with us at any time. Most of our contracts have "termination for convenience" provisions in them. The loss of business from a significant client could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations. Damage to our reputation could in turn cause damage to our business. Maintaining a positive reputation is critical to attracting and maintaining clients and other business relationships. If we fail to address issues that may give rise to reputational risk, we could significantly harm our business. These issues may include, but are not limited to, any of the risk factors discussed herein. If our reputation is harmed, we could suffer a number of adverse consequences, such as: • • • • • • • • • reduced demand for our services; lack of investor confidence; less favorable credit rating; the inability to attract and retain qualified employees; a loss or reduction in scope of current project contracts and fewer contract awards; less favorable contract terms; increased need for financial assurances; increased litigation and costs; and heightened regulatory scrutiny. These and other consequences resulting from damage to our reputation could have a material adverse effect us. Our business may be negatively impacted if we are unable to adequately protect intellectual property rights. Our success is impacted by our ability to differentiate our services through our technologies and know-how. This includes the ability to protect intellectual property rights. We utilize a combination of patents, copyrights, trade secrets, confidentiality agreements and other contractual arrangements to protect our interests. However, these methods only provide limited protection and may not adequately protect our interests. Our employees, contractors and joint venture partners are subject to confidentiality obligations, but this protection may be inadequate to deter or prevent misappropriation of our confidential information and/or infringement of our intellectual property rights. This can be especially true in certain foreign countries where intellectual property does not have equivalent protections as in the U.S., or when our joint venture partner is a competitor who will gain access to our procedures and know-how while working with us in the performance of services. Our clients require broad ownership rights in the work product and other materials we deliver. If we are unable to retain ownership of our pre-existing intellectual property and improvements thereto, it may affect our ability to provide similar services to other clients in the future, which ultimately, could have a material adverse effect on our operations. Our competitors or others may independently develop technology substantially similar to our trade secret technology or we may be unsuccessful in preserving our intellectual property rights in the future. Our intellectual property rights could be invalidated, circumvented, challenged or infringed upon. Litigation to determine the scope of intellectual property rights, even if ultimately successful, could be costly and could divert management's attention. In addition, our clients or other third parties may also provide us with their technology and intellectual property. There is a risk that we may not sufficiently protect against improper use or dissemination and, as a result, we could be subject to claims and litigation and resulting liabilities, loss of contracts or other consequences that could have an adverse impact on us. We also hold licenses from third parties utilized in our business operations. If we are no longer able to license such technology on commercially reasonable terms or otherwise, we could be adversely affected. When we license our intellectual property to third parties, the scope of such license grant is generally limited. If such third party exceeds the scope of the license grant, and if we are unable to detect unauthorized use of our intellectual property or otherwise take appropriate steps to enforce our rights, our revenue and margins will be adversely impacted, and the value of our intellectual property portfolio may be adversely affected. 24 Our results of operations could be adversely affected as a result of asset impairments. Our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected by impairments. Goodwill and other intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives are not amortized, but instead are tested at least annually for impairment. Any future impairments, including impairments of tangible assets, goodwill, investments, deferred tax assets or other intangible assets, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Climate change and related environmental issues could have a material adverse impact on us. Climate change related events, such as increased frequency and severity of storms, floods, wildfires, droughts, hurricanes, freezing conditions, and other natural disasters, may have a long-term impact on our business, financial condition and results of operation. While we seek to mitigate our business risks associated with climate change, we recognize that there are inherent climate related risks regardless of where we conduct our businesses. For example, a catastrophic natural disaster could negatively impact any of our office locations and the locations of our clients. Access to clean water and reliable energy in the communities where we conduct our business is critical to our operations. Accordingly, a natural disaster has the potential to disrupt our and our clients’ businesses and may cause us to experience work stoppages, supply chain disruptions, project delays, financial losses and additional costs to resume operations, including increased insurance costs or loss of cover, legal liability and reputational losses. Further, the risks caused by climate change span across the full spectrum of the industries we serve. The direct physical risks that climate change poses through chronic environmental changes, such as rising sea levels and temperatures, and acute events, such as hurricanes, droughts and wildfires, is common to each of these industries. Our clients could face increased costs to maintain their assets, which could result in reduced profitability and fewer resources for strategic investment. These types of physical risks could in turn lead to transitional risks (i.e., the degree to which society responds to the threat of climate change). For example, growing concerns about climate change may result in legislation, international protocols or treaties, regulation or other restrictions on greenhouse gas emissions or that otherwise seek to address climate change that could affect our clients, including those who (a) are involved in the exploration, production or refining of fossil fuels, such as our Energy Solutions clients, (b) emit greenhouse gases through the combustion of fossil fuels or (c) emit greenhouse gases through the mining, manufacture, utilization or production of materials or goods. Such legislation or restrictions could increase the costs of projects for us and our clients or, in some cases, prevent a project from going forward, thereby potentially reducing the need for our services, which would in turn have a material adverse impact on us. However, policy changes and climate legislation could also accelerate energy transition, including the development of carbon capture and storage projects, alternative transportation, alternative energy facilities, such as wind farms or nuclear reactors, or incentivize increased implementation of clean fuels projects, which could positively impact the demand for our services. We cannot predict when or whether any of these legislative proposals may become law or what effect will be on us and our clients. Increasing scrutiny and changing expectations from investors with respect to sustainability practices may impose additional costs on us or expose us to reputational or other risks. Investors and clients have increasingly focused on the environmental, social and governance practices of companies, including practices with respect to human capital, emissions and environmental impact and political spending. While we have programs and initiatives in place related to our environmental, social and governance practices, investors may decide to reallocate capital or to not commit capital as a result of their assessment of our practices. In addition, our clients may require that we adhere to varying environmental, social or governance standards. Our failure to comply with investor or client standards, which are evolving, or if we are perceived to not have responded appropriately to the growing concern for these issues could also cause reputational harm to our business and could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, organizations that provide ratings information to investors on environmental, social and governance matters may have unfavorable views on us, which may lead to negative sentiment. Risks Related to Indebtedness Adverse credit and financial market conditions could impair our, our clients' and our partners' borrowing capacity, which could negatively affect us. Our ability to generate cash is important for the funding of our operations, investing in ventures, the servicing of our indebtedness, paying dividends and making acquisitions. To the extent that existing cash balances and operating cash flow, together with borrowing capacity under our credit facilities, are insufficient to make investments or acquisitions or provide needed working capital, we may require additional financing from other sources. Our ability to obtain such additional financing will depend upon prevailing capital market conditions, including those arising due to events occurring in our industry, as well as conditions in our business and our operating results; and those factors may affect our efforts to negotiate terms that are acceptable to us. Furthermore, if global economic, industry, political or other market conditions adversely affect the financial institutions that provide credit to us, it is possible that our ability to establish or draw upon our credit 25 facilities may be impacted. In addition, a downgrade in our credit rating could increase the cost of our borrowings or their refinancing, limit access to sources of financing or lead to other adverse consequences. If adequate funds are not available, or are not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to make future investments, take advantage of acquisitions or other opportunities, or respond to competitive challenges. In addition, adverse credit and financial market conditions also adversely affect our clients' and our partners' borrowing capacity, which could result in contract cancellations or suspensions, project award and execution delays, payment delays or defaults by our clients. These disruptions could materially impact our backlog and profits. If we extend a significant portion of credit to our clients or projects in a specific geographic region or industry, we may experience higher levels of collection risk or non-payment if those clients are impacted by factors specific to their geographic industry or region. Our indebtedness could lead to adverse consequences or adversely affect our financial position and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations under such indebtedness, and any refinancing of this debt could be at significantly higher interest rates. Our indebtedness could have important consequences, including but not limited to: • • • increasing our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions; requiring us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to servicing our debt, thereby reducing the availability of cash to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and investments and other general corporate purposes; and limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, challenges and opportunities, and changes in our businesses and the markets in which we operate. Our ability to service our debt will depend on our future operating performance and financial results, which may be subject to factors beyond our control, including general economic, financial and business conditions. If we do not have sufficient cash flow to service our debt, we may need to refinance all or part of our existing debt, borrow more money or sell securities or assets, some or all of which may not be available to us at acceptable terms or at all. In addition, we may need to incur additional debt in the future in the ordinary course of business. Although the terms of our credit agreements and our bond indentures allow us to incur additional debt, there are limitations which may preclude us from incurring the desired amount. Our current debt and any future additional debt we may incur impose, or may impose, significant operating and financial restrictions on us. In addition, our credit facilities require us to maintain specified financial covenants. A breach of any of these covenants could result in a default. If a default occurs, the relevant lenders could elect to accelerate payments due. If our operating performance declines, or if we are unable to comply with any covenant, we may need to obtain amendments to our credit agreements or waivers from the lenders to avoid default. These factors could have a material adverse effect on us. We may be unable to win new contract awards if we cannot provide clients with financial assurances. It is a common industry practice for clients to require us to provide surety bonds, letters of credit, bank guarantees or other forms of financial assurance as credit enhancements. Surety bonds, letters of credit or guarantees indemnify our clients if we fail to perform our contractual obligations. Historically, we have had strong surety bonding capacity due to our credit rating, but bonding is provided at the surety's sole discretion. In addition, because of the overall limitations in worldwide bonding capacity, we may find it difficult to access sufficient surety bonding capacity to meet our total surety bonding needs. For letters of credit, we have historically had adequate capacity under our existing credit facilities, but any capacity that may be required in excess of our credit limits would be at our lenders' sole discretion. Failure to provide credit enhancements on terms required by a client may result in an inability to compete for or win a project. Legal and Regulatory Risks We are involved in litigation and regulatory proceedings, potential liability claims and contract disputes that may have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations. We are subject to a variety of legal or regulatory proceedings, liability claims or contract disputes. Our operating activities expose us to claims against us for recovery of costs they incurred in excess of what they expected to incur, or for which they believe they are not contractually liable. We may 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, including shareholder litigation. During times of economic uncertainty, especially with regard to our commodity-based clients, claim frequencies and amounts tend to increase. 26 In proceedings where it is determined that we have liability, we may not be covered by insurance or these liabilities may exceed our coverage. In addition, even where insurance is maintained for such exposure, the policies have deductibles resulting in our assuming exposure for a layer of coverage with respect to any such claims. Our professional liability coverage is on a "claims-made" basis covering only claims actually made during the policy period. 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 have a material adverse impact on us. We have received subpoenas from both the SEC and the U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ") seeking documents and information related to projects for which we recorded charges in the second quarter of 2019 and certain project accounting, financial reporting and governance matters. We are coordinating our responses to the SEC and DOJ and cooperating in providing the requested documents and information. If the SEC or DOJ commences legal action as a result of the investigations, we could be required to pay significant penalties and become subject to injunctions, cease and desist orders and other measures. We cannot predict the outcome or timing of any governmental or regulatory investigation. In addition to these investigations, we have also had numerous securities class action lawsuits and stockholder derivative actions filed against us and certain of our current and former executives and directors. We may incur significant expenses related to legal, accounting, and other professional services in connection with the SEC investigation, the DOJ investigation, lawsuits and related legal and regulatory matters. These expenses and the diversion of our management's attention has adversely affected, and could continue to adversely affect, our operations. We remain exposed to heightened risks of litigation, regulatory proceedings, and government enforcement actions and additional subpoenas. Any future investigations or additional lawsuits may have a material adverse effect on us. In other legal or regulatory proceedings, liability claims or contract disputes, we may be covered by indemnification agreements that may at times be difficult to enforce. Even if enforceable, it may be difficult to recover under these agreements if the indemnitor does not have the ability to financially support the indemnity. Litigation and regulatory proceedings are subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings could occur, including for monetary damages. If we were to receive an unfavorable ruling in a matter, our business and results of operations could be materially harmed. Such proceedings can also be costly, time-consuming, disruptive to operations and distracting to management, regardless of the outcome. Our failure to recover adequately on claims against clients, subcontractors or suppliers for payment or performance could have a material effect on our financial results. We occasionally bring claims against clients for additional costs exceeding the contract price or for amounts not included in the original contract price. Similarly, we present change orders and claims to our subcontractors and suppliers. If we fail to properly provide notice or document the nature of change orders or claims, or are otherwise unsuccessful in negotiating a reasonable settlement, we could incur reduced profits, cost overruns and in some cases a loss on the project. These types of claims can occur due to matters such as owner-caused delays or changes from the initial project scope, which result in additional cost. These claims can result in lengthy and costly proceedings, and it is often difficult to accurately predict when these claims will be fully resolved. When these types of events occur and while unresolved claims are pending, we may invest 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 results. We could be adversely affected by violations of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and similar worldwide anti-bribery laws. The U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.K. Bribery Act of 2010 and similar anti-bribery laws in other jurisdictions generally prohibit companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments to officials or others for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. While our policies mandate compliance with these anti-bribery laws, we operate in many parts of the world that have experienced corruption to some degree and, in certain circumstances, strict compliance with anti- bribery laws may conflict with local customs and practices. We train our personnel concerning anti-bribery laws and issues, and we also inform our partners, subcontractors, suppliers, agents and others who work for us or on our behalf that they must comply with anti-bribery law requirements. We also have procedures and controls in place to monitor compliance. However, there is no assurance that our internal controls will always protect us from the possible reckless or criminal acts committed by our employees or agents. If we are found to be liable for anti-bribery law violations (either due to our own acts or our inadvertence, or due to the acts or inadvertence of others including our partners, agents, subcontractors or suppliers), we could suffer from criminal or civil penalties or other sanctions, including contract cancellations or debarment, and damaged reputation, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business. Litigation or investigations relating to alleged or suspected violations of anti-bribery laws, even if ultimately such litigation or investigations demonstrate that we did not violate anti-bribery laws, could be costly and could distract management. 27 We could be adversely impacted if we fail to comply with domestic and international import and export laws. Our global operations require importing and exporting goods and technology across international borders on a regular basis. Our policies mandate strict compliance with U.S. and foreign international trade laws. To the extent we export technical services, data and products outside of the U.S., we are subject to regulations governing international trade and exports including but not limited to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations, the Export Administration Regulations and trade sanctions against embargoed countries, which are administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control within the Department of Treasury. From time to time, we identify certain inadvertent or potential export or related violations. These violations may include, for example, transfers without required governmental authorization. A failure to comply with these laws and regulations could result in civil or criminal sanctions, including the imposition of fines, the denial of export privileges, and suspension or debarment from participation in U.S. government contracts. Employee, agent or partner misconduct or our overall failure to comply with laws or regulations could impair our ability to compete for contracts Misconduct, fraud, non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations, or other improper activities by one of our employees, agents or partners could have a significant negative impact on our business and reputation. Such misconduct could include the failure to comply with anti-corruption, export control and environmental regulations; federal procurement regulations, regulations regarding the pricing of labor and other costs in government contracts and regulations regarding the protection of sensitive government information; regulations on lobbying or similar activities; regulations pertaining to the internal control over financial reporting; and various other applicable laws or regulations. The precautions we take to prevent and detect fraud, misconduct or failures to comply with applicable laws and regulations may not be effective, and we could face unknown risks or losses. Failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations or acts of fraud or misconduct could subject us to fines and penalties, loss of security clearance and suspension or debarment from contracting with government agencies, which could weaken our ability to win contracts and have a material adverse impact on our revenues and profits. New or changing legal requirements could adversely affect our operating results. Our business and results of operations could be affected by the passage of laws, policies and regulations. The implementation of trade barriers, countervailing duties, or border taxes, or the addition, relaxation or repeal of laws, policies and regulations regarding the industries and sectors in which we work could result in a decline in demand for our services, or may make the manner in which we perform our services, less profitable. Furthermore, changes to existing trade agreements may impact our business operations. We cannot predict when or whether any of these various legislative and regulatory proposals may become law or what their effect will be on us and our clients. 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, including nuclear and other radioactive 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 length of time available to comply with those regulations, continue to develop and change. The cost of complying with regulations, satisfying any environmental remediation requirements for which we may be found responsible, or satisfying claims or judgments alleging personal injury, property damage or natural resource damages as a result of exposure to, or contamination by, hazardous materials, including as a result of commodities such as lead or asbestos-related products, could be substantial, may not be covered by insurance, could impact profitability and materially impact our operations. We are subject to a number of regulations such as those from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and non-U.S. regulatory bodies, such as the International Atomic Energy Commission and the European Union, which can have a substantial effect on our nuclear operations and investments. Delays in receiving necessary approvals, permits or licenses, the failure to maintain sufficient compliance programs, and other problems encountered during construction (including changes to such regulatory requirements) could have an adverse effect on us. A substantial portion of our business is generated either directly or indirectly as a result of federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations related to environmental matters. A reduction in the number or scope of these laws or regulations, or changes in government policies regarding the funding, implementation or enforcement of such laws and regulations, could significantly reduce the size of one of our markets and limit our opportunities for growth or reduce our revenue below current levels. 28 Risks Related to Mergers & Acquisitions and Strategic Plans We may be unsuccessful in implementing our strategic and operational initiatives. We have announced a number of strategic and operational initiatives designed to optimize costs and improve operational efficiency, including plans to divest our Stork business, monetize surplus real estate and non-core investments, and rationalize resources and overhead across various geographies. Our ability to successfully execute these initiatives is subject to various risks and uncertainties, including regulatory intervention, which may negatively impact the realization of expected benefits. Our failure to realize the anticipated benefits, which may be due to our inability to execute, competition, economic conditions, and other risks described herein, could have a material adverse effect on us. Divesting businesses involves risks and uncertainties, such as the difficulty separating assets related to such businesses from the businesses we retain, employee distraction, the need to obtain regulatory approvals and other third-party consents, which potentially disrupts customer and vendor relationships, and the fact that we may be subject to additional tax obligations or loss of certain tax benefits. Such actions also involve significant costs and require time and attention of our management, which may divert attention from other business operations. Because of these challenges, as well as market conditions or other factors, anticipated divestitures may take longer or be costlier or generate fewer benefits than expected and may not be completed at all. If we are unable to complete the divestitures or to successfully transition divested businesses, our business and financial results could be negatively impacted. If we dispose of a business, we may not be able to successfully cause a buyer of a divested business to assume the liabilities of that business or, even if such liabilities are assumed, we may have difficulties enforcing our rights, contractual or otherwise, against the buyer. We may retain exposure on financial or performance guarantees and other contractual, employment, pension and severance obligations, and potential liabilities that may arise under law because of the disposition or the subsequent failure of an acquirer. As a result, performance by the divested businesses or other conditions outside of our control could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. In addition, the divestiture of any business could negatively impact our profitability because of losses that may result from such a sale, the loss of revenues or a decrease in cash flows. Following a divestiture, we may also have less diversification in our business and in the markets we serve, as well as in our client base. We may be unsuccessful integrating acquisitions or capitalizing on investments we make. In making an acquisition or investment, we devote significant management attention and resources to integrating or aligning the business practices and operations of companies we acquire or invest in. Difficulties we may encounter in integrating or capitalizing on investments could include: • • • • • • • A delay in the integration or alignment of management teams, strategies, operations, products and services; Diversion of management's attention; The consequences of a change in tax treatment; Differences in corporate culture and management philosophies; The ability to retain key personnel; The challenges of integrating or aligning complex IT systems; and Potential for unknown liabilities and unforeseen increased expenses or associated delays, including integration costs. Any of these factors could negatively affect us. Risks Related to our Preferred Stock and our Equity Conversion of our CPS will dilute the ownership interest of existing common stockholders or may otherwise depress the price of our common stock. In May 2021, we issued shares of Series A CPS. The conversion of some or all of the preferred stock into our common stock will dilute the ownership interests of existing common stockholders. Any public market sales of the common stock issuable upon conversion could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Our CPS has rights, preferences and privileges that are not held by, and are preferential to the rights of, our common stockholders, which could adversely affect the value of the common stock, our liquidity and our financial condition. Holders of our preferred stock have the right to receive a payment of $1,000 per share, plus accumulated but unpaid dividends, upon our liquidation, winding up or dissolution before any payment may be made to holders of our common stock. 29 In addition, dividends on the preferred stock accrue and are cumulative at an annual rate of 6.50%. Subject to certain exceptions, we are not permitted to declare or pay dividends on our common stock unless all accumulated and unpaid preferred stock dividends have been satisfied. These dividend obligations could impact our liquidity available for other purposes. If dividends on the preferred stock are in arrears and unpaid for six or more quarterly dividend periods, the preferred stockholders are entitled to elect two additional directors to our board of directors. In addition, votes of holders of at least 66⅔% of the outstanding preferred stock are required to issue any equity senior to the preferred stock. The rights of the preferred stockholders could also limit our ability to obtain additional financing, which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition. The preferred stockholders could also have divergent interests from the holders of our common stock. Provisions attendant to our preferred stock may deter or prevent a business combination that may be favorable to our stockholders. If a make-whole fundamental change occurs, we may be required to increase the conversion rate for an electing holder. This and other provisions attendant to the preferred stock could deter or prevent a third party from acquiring us even when the acquisition may be favorable to our common stockholders. In the event we issue additional equity securities, stockholders' ownership percentages would be diluted. We may in the future issue additional equity securities to pay for potential acquisitions or to otherwise fund our corporate initiatives. If we do issue additional equity securities, the issuance may dilute our earnings per share and stockholders' percentage ownership. Delaware law and our charter documents may impede or discourage a takeover or change of control. Fluor is 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 charters and bylaws may impede or discourage a takeover. For example: • • • stockholders may not act by written consent; there are various restrictions on the ability of a stockholder to call a special meeting or to nominate a director for election; and our Board of Directors can authorize the issuance of preferred shares. These types of provisions in our charters and bylaws could also make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if the acquisition would be beneficial to our equity holders. Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments None. Item 2. Properties Major Facilities Our operations are conducted at both owned and leased properties in U.S. and foreign locations totaling approximately 6.6 million rentable square feet, down 1.3 million square feet from last year. Our executive offices are located at 6700 Las Colinas Boulevard, Irving, Texas. As our business frequently changes, the extent of utilization of the facilities by particular segments cannot be accurately stated. In addition, certain of our properties are leased or subleased to third party tenants. While we have operations worldwide, the following summarizes our more significant existing facilities: 30 Location United States: Greenville, South Carolina Houston (Sugar Land), Texas Irving, Texas (Corporate Headquarters) Southern California (Aliso Viejo and Long Beach) Canada: Calgary, Alberta Vancouver, British Columbia Latin America: Santiago, Chile Europe, Africa and Middle East: Al Khobar, Saudi Arabia Amsterdam, the Netherlands Farnborough, England Gliwice, Poland Johannesburg, South Africa Utrecht, the Netherlands Asia/Asia Pacific: Manila, the Philippines New Delhi, India Perth, Australia Shanghai, China Interest Owned Leased Owned Leased Owned Leased Owned and Leased Owned Owned Owned and Leased Owned Leased Leased Owned and Leased Leased Leased Leased In addition, we lease or own a number of individually insignificant offices, warehouses and equipment yards strategically located throughout the world. We also, through various joint ventures, own or lease fabrication yards in China and Mexico. Item 3. Legal Proceedings As part of our normal business activities, we are party to a number of legal proceedings and other matters in various stages of development. We periodically assess our liabilities and contingencies for these matters based upon the latest information available. For information on legal proceedings and matters in dispute, see the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report. Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures None. 31 PART II Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities Our common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "FLR." We have paid no dividends on our common stock since April 2020. Any future cash dividends will depend upon our results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements, availability of surplus and such other factors as our Board of Directors may deem relevant. At January 31, 2022, there were 4,151 stockholders of record of our common stock. Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities The following table provides information for the three months ended December 31, 2021 about purchases by the company of equity securities that have been registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Period October 1–October 31, 2021 November 1–November 30, 2021 December 1–December 31, 2021 Total Total Number of Shares Purchased Average Price Paid per Share Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plans or Programs — $ — — — $ — — — — — — — — Maximum Number of Shares that May Yet Be Purchased Under Plans or Programs(1) 10,513,093 10,513,093 10,513,093 _______________________________________________________________________________ (1) The share repurchase program, as amended, totals 34,000,000 shares. We may repurchase shares from time to time in open market transactions or privately negotiated transactions, including through pre-arranged trading programs, at our discretion, subject to market conditions and other factors and at such time and in amounts that we deem appropriate. Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements. Results of Operations During the first quarter of 2021, we changed the composition of our segments to implement our new strategy and to pursue opportunities in our designated markets. We now report our operating results in four segments as follows: Energy Solutions, Urban Solutions, Mission Solutions and Other. Segment operating information and assets for 2020 and 2019 have been recast to conform to these changes. In the first quarter of 2021, we also committed to a plan to sell our Stork business, which had previously represented the majority of operations from our former diversified services segment. The sale of the North American portion of the AMECO equipment business was completed during May 2021. Therefore, both Stork and AMECO are reported as Disc Ops along with other immaterial operations. We expect to complete the sale of Stork and the remaining AMECO operations early in 2022. The assets and liabilities of the Stork and AMECO businesses are classified as held for sale for all periods presented. In December 2021, we announced that NuScale, in which we are the majority investor, signed a merger agreement with Spring Valley Acquisition Corp., a special purpose acquisition company ("Spring Valley"). Spring Valley is acquiring an approximately 20% interest in NuScale. The proposed transaction is anticipated to close in the first half of 2022, subject to customary closing conditions. Upon completion of the merger, we estimate that we will own approximately 60-70% of the combined company and expect that we will continue to consolidate it. 32 (in millions) Revenue Energy Solutions Urban Solutions Mission Solutions Total revenue Segment profit (loss) $ and margin % Energy Solutions Urban Solutions Mission Solutions Other Total segment profit (loss) $ and margin %(1) G&A Impairment, restructuring and other exit costs Loss on pension settlement Foreign currency gain (loss) Interest expense, net Earnings (loss) attributable to NCI from Cont Ops Earnings (loss) from Cont Ops before taxes Income tax (expense) benefit Net earnings (loss) from Cont Ops New awards Energy Solutions Urban Solutions Mission Solutions Total new awards $ $ $ $ $ $ $ (216) (44) (198) (13) (68) 37 (128) (16) (144) 3,313 2,721 2,719 8,753 YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021 4,956 4,416 3,063 12,435 2020 5,271 5,854 3,033 14,158 $ $ 2019 5,838 6,590 3,026 15,454 $ $ 5.0 % $ 0.9 % 5.1 % 250 38 155 (69) NM 374 3.0 % $ 3.2 % $ 2.8 % 2.9 % 169 161 87 (84) NM 333 2.4 % $ (1.7) % (0.8) % 1.5 % NM (1.1) % (97) (50) 46 (66) (167) (140) (318) (138) (26) (11) (39) (839) (482) $ $ $ (1,321) 3,724 4,471 2,151 10,346 (202) (108) — (45) (42) 67 3 (15) (12) 2,013 3,563 1,883 7,459 $ $ $ $ $ New awards related to projects located outside of the U.S. 57% (in millions) Backlog Energy Solutions Urban Solutions Mission Solutions Total backlog December 31, 2021 $ $ 9,324 7,048 2,562 18,934 Backlog related to projects located outside of the U.S. Backlog related to lump-sum projects 65% 64% 53% 48% December 31, 2020 11,021 9,224 2,899 23,144 64% 60% (1) Total segment profit (loss) is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe that total segment profit (loss) provides a meaningful perspective on our results as it is the aggregation of individual segment profit (loss) measures that we use to evaluate and manage our performance. Our business has been adversely affected by the impacts of COVID and the steep decline in oil prices that occurred in early 2020. These events created significant uncertainty and economic volatility and disruption, which have impacted and may continue to impact our business. We experienced reductions in demand for certain services and the delay or abandonment of ongoing or anticipated projects due to our clients’, suppliers’ and other third parties’ diminished financial condition. Although oil prices have rebounded in 2021 and 2022, we have not yet seen our energy clients respond with elevated capital expenditures for our services. Our estimates reflect our best assessment of project results inclusive of COVID effects, which have been dynamic as our projects have seen changes in prevailing regulations as COVID cases crested and fell. During 2021, consolidated revenue declined due to volume declines on projects which were completed or nearing completion in the Energy Solutions and Urban Solutions segments as well as the cancellation of three large projects that were in progress in the prior year. Consolidated revenue in 2020 declined due to volume declines on completed projects or projects nearing completion as well as COVID and the decline in oil prices. 33 During 2021, improvements in segment profit in the Energy Solutions, Mission Solutions and Other segments were partially offset by a significant decline in segment profit for Urban Solutions where we recognized a $138 million charge in the second quarter of 2021 for procurement and subcontractor cost growth on a legacy infrastructure project. Segment profit in 2020 significantly improved primarily due to forecast revisions totaling $839 million recognized in 2019 on several projects in the Energy Solutions, Urban Solutions and Mission Solutions segments but was diminished by the impact of COVID on numerous projects in 2020. The effective tax rate from Cont Ops was 13%, (454%) and 57% for 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively. The 2021 effective tax rate was favorably impacted by a $52 million benefit due to the Dutch pension plan settlement. This benefit was offset by a $100 million increase in valuation allowances to reduce deferred assets primarily in the U.S., U.K. and the Netherlands. The 2020 effective tax rate was favorably impacted by a $125 million benefit due to the utilization of a 2019 net operating loss carryback as allowed under the CARES ACT. This benefit was offset by a $147 million increase in valuation allowances to reduce deferred tax assets primarily in the U.S. and the Netherlands. The 2019 effective tax rate was unfavorably impacted by $659 million in charges related to establishing valuation allowances to reduce net deferred tax assets in the U.S., the U.K. and Australia. Our results reported by foreign subsidiaries with non-U.S. dollar functional currencies are affected by foreign currency volatility. When the U.S. dollar appreciates against the non-U.S. dollar functional currencies of these subsidiaries, our reported revenue, cost and earnings, after translation into U.S. dollars, are lower than what they would have been had the U.S. dollar depreciated against the same foreign currencies or if there had been no change in the exchange rates. Our profit margins, in some cases, may be favorably or unfavorably impacted by a change in the amount of customer- furnished materials, which are accounted for as pass-through costs. Any lack of broad based new awards could pressure our future earning streams. The decline in backlog during 2021 primarily resulted from the removal of approximately $2 billion from backlog due to the cancellation of a chemicals project and a steel project. Although backlog reflects business that is considered to be firm, cancellations, deferrals or scope adjustments may occur. Backlog is adjusted to reflect any known project cancellations, revisions to project scope and cost, foreign currency exchange fluctuations and project deferrals, as appropriate. Backlog differs from RUPO discussed elsewhere. RUPO includes only the amount of revenue we expect to recognize under contracts with definite terms and substantive termination provisions. Impairment, Restructuring and Other Exit Costs Impairment expense, included in Cont Ops, for 2021, 2020 and 2019 is summarized as follows: (in thousands) Impairment expense: Energy Solutions' equity method investments Information technology assets Total impairment expense Year Ended December 31, 2020 2019 2021 $ $ 27,934 15,858 43,792 $ 86,096 $ 256,769 — 16,269 $ 102,365 $ 256,769 During 2019, we initiated a restructuring plan designed to optimize costs and improve operational efficiency. These efforts primarily related to the rationalization of resources, investments, real estate and overhead across various geographies. The recognition of costs for the planned restructuring activities was substantially completed by the end of 2020. We did not recognize any material restructuring costs during 2021. Information about our completed restructuring follows: (in thousands) Restructuring and other exit costs: Severance Asset impairments Other exit costs Total restructuring and other exit costs 34 Costs Incurred in 2020 Costs Incurred in 2019 $ $ 5,256 — 736 5,992 $ $ 30,530 29,485 1,658 61,673 Gain (Loss) on Pension Settlement In 2021, we settled the majority of the obligations of our largest DB plan, which provided retirement benefits to certain employees in the Netherlands, and recognized a loss on settlement of $198 million. In 2019, we settled the obligations of our DB plan in the United Kingdom and recognized a loss on settlement of $138 million. Segment Operations We provide professional services in the fields of EPC, fabrication and modularization, and project management services, on a global basis and serve a diverse set of industries worldwide. Energy Solutions Revenue in 2021 decreased due to declines in the volume of execution activities for projects nearing completion and the cancellation of a chemicals project in North America partially offset by the ramp up of execution activities on a refinery project in Mexico and a chemicals project in China. Revenue in 2020 decreased due to significant declines in the volume of execution activities for numerous upstream, downstream and chemicals projects nearing completion partially offset by increased execution activity for an LNG project in Canada. Segment profit in 2021 increased due to the ramp up of execution activities on the refinery project in Mexico and the LNG project in Canada and the collection of previously reserved accounts receivable but was partially offset by losses on embedded foreign currency derivatives, the decline in execution activity for projects nearing completion and the cancellation of the chemicals project in North America. The increase in segment profit during 2020 was primarily the result of forecast revisions on several projects recognized during 2019. Excluding the impact of the 2019 charges, segment profit declined in 2020 due to COVID related cost growth, the recognition of reserves for expected credit losses on aged receivables, the reduced execution activity of the upstream, downstream and chemicals projects discussed above, partially offset by the increase in activity for the LNG project. The change in segment profit margin in 2021 and 2020 reflects these same factors. Segment profit margin in 2020 was also adversely impacted by a shift from higher margin work in 2019 to lower margin work in 2020 in certain geographies. New awards in 2021 increased due to awards for a refinery project in Mexico. No significant awards were booked in 2020 due to the impact of COVID and declining oil prices on our customers' capital spend. New awards in 2019 included a chemicals projects in China and a downstream project in the United Kingdom. Backlog decreased during 2021 primarily due to the cancellation of the chemicals project in North America. Urban Solutions Revenue in 2021 decreased due to the close out of data center projects in Europe and mining projects in South America and Australia as well as the cancellation of a rail project and a steel project that were in progress in the prior year periods. Revenue in 2020 declined due to a six-month suspension in 2020 of a large mining project in South America due to COVID and a decline in the volume of execution activities for a large life sciences project and two mining projects completed or nearing completion. The revenue decline in 2020 was partially offset by increased execution activities on two advanced technologies projects, a mining project and a metals project. Segment profit in 2021 declined due to forecast revisions for procurement and subcontractor cost growth, delays and disruptions in schedule of a legacy infrastructure project, resulting in a charge of $138 million recognized in the second quarter of 2021. We believe that these cost growth factors may be at least partially recoverable under the contract. However, we expect that it will require several quarters to analyze recoverability and negotiate with our client before recognizing incremental revenue for these factors. The decline in segment profit in 2021 was further impacted by forecast revisions for schedule delays and productivity on a light rail project but partially offset by the favorable resolution of a long-standing customer dispute on a road project as well as a gain on the sale of our interest in an infrastructure joint venture. The change in 2021 segment profit margin reflects these same factors. Segment profit in 2020 significantly improved compared to 2019 primarily due to forecast revisions on several power and infrastructure projects recognized in 2019 as well as a favorable settlement on a canceled rail project in 2020. The increase in 2020 segment profit was partially offset by charges for cost growth in the infrastructure legacy portfolio, the decline in activity for the life sciences and mining projects nearing completion and the mining project in South America that was impacted by COVID. The change in 2020 segment profit margin reflects these same factors. 35 New awards in 2021 and 2020 decreased partly due to delayed procurement efforts by many of our clients. However, we were recently awarded limited notice to proceed on two significant mining projects in South America. New awards in 2021 included a large life sciences project in Europe. New awards in 2020 included a highway project in Texas and new awards in 2019 included the data center projects in Europe and a road project in Texas. Backlog declined during 2021 due to the cancellation of a steel project coupled with lower new awards. Our staffing business does not report new awards or backlog. Mission Solutions Revenue in 2021 was flat compared to 2020 and 2019. In 2021, the ramp up of execution activities on a project to provide contingency and humanitarian support for Afghan evacuees in the United States was offset by the decline in revenue related to the closure of the army logistics and life support program in Afghanistan. In 2020, increased project execution activities at the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and our DOE sites were partially offset by the decline in revenue from the completion of a nuclear decommissioning project in 2019. The increase in segment profit in 2021 was driven by the ramp up of execution activities on the evacuee support project discussed above, increased execution activity on our DOE projects, higher than anticipated performance-based fees, the release of COVID cost reserves and the collection of previously reserved accounts receivable and the reversal of the related provision partially offset by the closure of the army logistics and life support program in Afghanistan. The increase in segment profit in 2020 was primarily driven by significant items recognized in 2019. In 2019, we recognized significant charges for cost growth on two lump-sum projects. The 2019 charges were partially offset by a favorable settlement on two nuclear power plant projects in 2019.The change in segment profit margin in 2021 and 2020 reflects these same factors. New awards in 2021 increased due to extensions on certain DOE projects as well as the award for contingency and humanitarian support for Afghan evacuees. New awards in 2020 decreased due to a decline in FEMA work in 2020 and an award for a weapons storage and maintenance facility booked in 2019. The decline in backlog during 2021 resulted from new award activity being outpaced by work performed. Backlog included $445 million and $1.0 billion of unfunded government contracts as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Unfunded backlog reflects our estimate of future revenue under awarded government contracts for which funding has not yet been appropriated. Other Other includes the operations of NuScale. NuScale expenses included in the determination of segment loss were as follows: (in millions) NuScale expenses Less: DOE reimbursable expenses NuScale expenses, net Less: Attributable to NCI Fluor segment loss YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021 2020 2019 $ $ (169) 69 (100) 31 (69) $ $ (159) 71 (88) 4 (84) $ $ (127) 57 (70) 4 (66) The increase in NuScale expenses during 2021 was due to an increase in compensation and the increase in 2020 was due to an increase in research and development activities as NuScale received final design certification by the NRC in August of 2020. NuScale received capital contributions from outside investors of $193 million, $9 million and $49 million during 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. As of December 31, 2021, Fluor had an approximate 80% ownership in NuScale. G&A (in millions) G&A Compensation Severance SEC investigation / Internal review costs Gain on sale of building Other G&A YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021 2020 2019 $ $ 164 8 27 (13) 30 216 $ $ 122 4 42 — 33 201 $ $ 87 — — — 53 140 The increase in compensation expense in 2021 was due to higher stock price driven compensation on stock-based awards and higher performance driven compensation including annual bonus projections. The increase in compensation expense in 2020 was primarily due to lower stock price and performance driven compensation in 2019. 36 We continue to incur professional fees in responding to the SEC investigation, which remains ongoing. The internal review began in the first quarter of 2020 and was substantially completed in the fourth quarter of 2020. The decrease in other expense in 2021 and 2020 was driven by the realization of our 2019 restructuring efforts and lower travel costs due to COVID. We announced in January 2021 that we had begun an undertaking to substantially reduce our overhead costs. Although we have not satisfied the requirements to recognize charges for any restructurings for the 2021 undertaking, we are likely to recognize expense in future quarters for these efforts. Net Interest Expense (in millions) Net interest expense Interest expense Costs to refinance our credit facility Loss on debt repurchases Interest income Net interest expense YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021 2020 2019 $ $ 63 2 20 (17) 68 $ $ 65 — — (23) 42 $ $ 65 — — (54) 11 The loss on debt repurchases includes costs to redeem $509 million of 2023 and 2024 Notes through a tender offer completed in September 2021 as well as through open market transactions following the issuance of the CPS in the second quarter of 2021. The decrease in interest income during 2021 and 2020 was primarily driven by lower interest rates compared to 2019. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to our financial statements. The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Estimates are based on information available through the date of the issuance of the financial statements and, accordingly, actual results in future periods could differ from these estimates. Significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements apply to the following critical accounting policies: Revenue Recognition for Long-Term Contracts. We recognize our engineering and construction contract revenue over time as we provide services to satisfy our performance obligations. We generally use the cost-to-cost percentage-of- completion measure of progress as it best depicts how control transfers to our clients. The cost-to-cost approach measures progress towards completion based on the ratio of contract cost incurred to date compared to total estimated contract cost. Use of the cost-to-cost measure of progress requires us to prepare estimates of total expected revenue and cost to complete our projects. Due to the nature of our industry, there is significant complexity in our estimation of total expected revenue and cost, for which we must make significant judgments. Our contracts with our customers may contain award fees, incentive fees, liquidated damages or other provisions that can either increase or decrease the contract price to arrive at estimated revenue. These variable amounts generally are awarded upon achievement of certain performance metrics, program milestones or cost targets and can be based upon customer discretion. We estimate variable consideration at the most likely amount to which we expect to be entitled. We include estimated amounts in the transaction price to the extent it is probable we will realize that amount. Our estimates of variable consideration and our determination of its inclusion in project revenue for accounting purposes are based on an assessment of our anticipated performance and other information that may be available to us. At a project level, we have specific practices and procedures to review our estimate of total revenue and cost. Each project team reviews the progress and execution of our performance obligations, which impact the project’s accounting outcome. As part of this process, the project team reviews information such as any outstanding key contract matters, progress towards completion and the related program schedule and identified risks and opportunities. The accuracy of our revenue and profit recognition in a given period depends on the accuracy of our project estimates, which can change from period to period due to a variety of factors including: • Complexity in original design; • Extent of changes from original design; • Different site conditions than assumed in our bid; 37 • The productivity, availability and skill level of labor; • Weather conditions when executing a project; • The technical maturity of the technologies involved; • Length of time to complete the project; • Availability and cost of equipment and materials; • Subcontractor and joint venture partner performance; • Expected costs of warranties; and • Our ability to recover for additional contract costs. We recognize changes in contract estimates on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period in which the changes are identified. Such changes in contract estimates can result in the recognition of revenue in a current period for performance obligations which were satisfied or partially satisfied in prior periods. Changes in contract estimates may also result in the reversal of previously recognized revenue if the current estimate adversely differs from the previous estimate. If we estimate that a project will have costs in excess of revenue, we recognize the total loss in the period it is identified. Variable Consideration. The nature of our contracts gives rise to several types of variable consideration, including claims, unpriced change orders, award and incentive fees, liquidated damages and penalties. We consider variable consideration in the development of our project forecasts so that our forecasted revenue reflects the amount of consideration we expect to be probable of recovering without a future significant reversal. We estimate the amount of revenue attributable to variable consideration using the expected value method (i.e., the sum of probability-weighted amounts) or the most likely amount method, whichever offers better prediction. Significant judgments are required in developing estimates for variable consideration. Fair Value Measurements. We are often required to use fair value measurement techniques with inputs that require the use of estimates and involve significant judgment. These circumstances include: • Impairment testing of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles when quantitative analysis is deemed necessary • Impairment testing of long-lived assets when impairment indicators are present • Impairment testing of investments as part of other than temporary impairment assessments when impairment indicators are present • Fair value assessments of businesses held for sale that are reported at fair value less cost to sell • Purchase price allocations for acquired businesses When performing quantitative fair value or impairment evaluations, we estimate the fair value of our assets by considering the results of either or both income-based and market-based valuation approaches. Under the income approach, we prepare a discounted cash flow valuation model using recent forecasts and compare the estimated fair value of each asset to its carrying value. Cash flow forecasts are discounted using the appropriate weighted-average cost of capital at the date of evaluation. The weighted-average cost of capital is comprised of the cost of equity and the cost of debt with a weighting for each that reflects our current capital structure. Preparation of long-term forecasts involve significant judgments involving consideration of our backlog, expected future awards, customer attrition, working capital assumptions, and general market trends and conditions. Significant changes in these forecasts or any valuation assumptions, such as the discount rate selected, could affect the estimated fair value of our assets and could result in impairment expenses. Under the market approach, we consider market information such as multiples of comparable publicly traded companies and/or completed sales transactions to develop or validate our fair value conclusions, when appropriate and available. Due to the impact of COVID and the decline in oil prices in 2020, we performed interim impairment testing of our goodwill, intangibles and certain equity method investments and recognized impairment expenses of $169 million, $27 million and $86 million, respectively. The impairment expense on goodwill and intangibles was included in Disc Ops. During 2019, we recognized impairment charges of $257 million related to certain equity method investments and $34 million related to intangible assets now included in Disc Ops. Restructuring Accruals. We recognize and accrue restructuring related termination benefits when the recognition criteria under GAAP have been met, depending on the nature of the termination benefit. Recognition of termination benefits requires the use of estimates in determining the expected termination benefits payable, when they are probable of being realized and can be reasonably estimated. Our estimates consider the number of employees that we expect will be eligible to receive the benefit and the amount of benefit potentially payable to each employee based on either the terms of the plan or statutory entitlement. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Item is described more fully in the Notes to Financial Statements. 38 Litigation and Matters in Dispute Resolution Item is described more fully in the Notes to Financial Statements. LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL CONDITION Our liquidity arises from available cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, cash generated from operations, capacity under our credit facilities and, when necessary, access to capital markets. We have committed and uncommitted lines of credit available for revolving loans and letters of credit. We believe that for at least the next 12 months, cash generated from operations, along with our unused credit capacity and cash position, is sufficient to support operating requirements. We regularly review our sources and uses of liquidity and may pursue opportunities to address our liquidity needs. As of December 31, 2021, letters of credit totaling $429 million were outstanding under our $1.65 billion credit facility, which matures in February 2023. This credit facility contains customary financial covenants, including a debt-to-capitalization ratio that cannot exceed 0.65 to 1.00, a limitation on the aggregate amount of debt of the greater of $750 million or €750 million for our subsidiaries, and a minimum liquidity threshold of $1.25 billion, all as defined in the amended credit facility. The credit facility also contains provisions that will require us to provide collateral if we are downgraded to BB by S&P and Ba2 by Moody's, such collateral consisting broadly of liens on our U.S. assets. Borrowings under the facility, which may be denominated in USD, EUR, GBP or CAD, bear interest at a base rate, plus an applicable borrowing margin. As of December 31, 2021, we could have borrowed an additional $779 million under our credit facility. In February 2022, we amended our credit facility to extend the maturity to February 2025, increase the size of the facility to $1.8 billion and decrease the debt-to-capitalization ratio to 0.60 to 1.00. In 2022, we expect to pursue issuance of new senior notes to address the maturities currently scheduled for 2023 and 2024. We cannot predict the terms or conditions associated with any such issuance. Cash and cash equivalents combined with marketable securities were $2.3 billion as of December 31, 2021 and $2.2 billion as of December 31, 2020. Cash and cash equivalents are held in numerous accounts throughout the world to fund our global project execution activities. Non-U.S. cash and cash equivalents amounted to $992 million and $984 million as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Non-U.S. cash and cash equivalents exclude deposits of U.S. legal entities that are either swept into overnight, offshore accounts or invested in offshore, short-term time deposits, to which there is unrestricted access. In evaluating our liquidity needs, we consider cash and cash equivalents held by our consolidated variable interest entities (joint ventures and partnerships). These amounts (which totaled $630 million and $655 million as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively) were not necessarily readily available for general purposes. We also consider the extent to which client advances (which totaled $74 million and $80 million as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively) are likely to be sustained or consumed over the near term for project execution activities and the cash flow requirements of our various foreign operations. In some cases, it may not be financially efficient to move cash and cash equivalents between countries due to statutory dividend limitations and/or adverse tax consequences. We did not consider any cash to be permanently reinvested outside the U.S. as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, other than unremitted earnings required to meet our working capital and long-term investment needs in non-U.S. foreign jurisdictions where we operate. 39 (in thousands) OPERATING CASH FLOW INVESTING CASH FLOW Proceeds from sales and maturities (purchases) of marketable securities Capital expenditures Proceeds from sales of assets incl.

Working capital levels vary from period to period and are primarily affected by our volume of work and billing schedules on our projects. These levels are also impacted by the stage of completion and commercial terms of engineering and construction projects, as well as our execution of our projects compared to their budget. Working capital requirements also vary by project and the payments terms agreed to with our clients, vendors and subcontractors. Most contracts require payments as the projects progress. Additionally, certain projects receive advance payments from clients. A typical trend for our projects is to have higher cash balances during the initial phases of execution due to deposits paid to us which then diminish toward the end of the construction phase. As a result, our cash position is reduced as customer advances are utilized, unless they are replaced by advances on other projects. We maintain cash reserves and borrowing facilities to provide additional working capital in the event that a project’s net operating cash outflows exceed its available cash balances. As of December 31, 2021, our backlog included $1.1 billion for loss projects which may have a negative impact on our operating cash flow in future periods. Our operating cash flow for 2021 was negatively impacted by increases in working capital on several large projects as well as higher cash payments of G&A. Operating cash flow in 2021 and 2020 were positively impacted by significant settlement payments on a cancelled rail project. Operating cash flow in 2020 and 2019 were positively impacted by decreases in project working capital. We contributed $128 million, $130 million and $115 million into our DC plans during 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $13 million, $25 million and $15 million into our DB plans during 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. We expect to contribute up to $13 million to our DB plans in 2022, which is expected to be in excess of the minimum funding required. The remaining obligations under our Dutch DB plan and UK DB plan were settled in 2021 and 2019, respectively. The loss on settlement in both years consisted primarily of unrecognized actuarial losses included in AOCI and did not materially impact our cash position. For one of our discontinued operations, we participate in one multiemployer plan in which we are aware of 40 a significant unfunded benefit obligation. However, we believe we qualify for an exemption and do not believe we have a probable payment to the plan. Therefore, we have not recognized a liability related to this unfunded benefit obligation. NuScale expenses were $69 million, $84 million and $66 million during 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and were reported net of qualified reimbursable expenses of $69 million, $71 million and $57 million, respectively. Investing Activities Our investment policy focuses on, in order of priority, the preservation of capital, maintenance of liquidity and maximization of yield. Marketable securities may include money market funds, time deposits placed with highly-rated financial institutions, repurchase agreements that are fully collateralized by U.S. Government-related securities, high-grade commercial paper and high quality short-term and medium-term fixed income securities. Capital expenditures during 2021 primarily related to construction equipment on certain infrastructure projects as well as expenditures for facilities and investments in information technology. Capital expenditures during 2020 and 2019 primarily related to construction equipment associated with the equipment operations now included in Disc Ops, as well as expenditures for facilities and investments in information technology. Proceeds from sales of assets during 2021 includes the sale of the North American operations of the AMECO equipment business for $71 million as well as our 10% ownership interest in an infrastructure joint venture and a building in the U.S. During 2020, we sold substantially all of the assets of our AMECO equipment business in Jamaica as well as 100% of our interest in an equipment rental business in Europe. Also in 2020, we sold our interests in two infrastructure joint ventures in the Netherlands and one infrastructure joint venture in the U.S. Investments in unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures in 2021 included a $26 million capital contribution to COOEC Fluor, which satisfied our contractual funding requirements, as well as capital contributions to an Energy Solutions joint venture and a recently formed Mission Solutions joint venture. Investments in unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures in 2020 and 2019 included capital contributions to two infrastructure joint ventures in the United States. Financing Activities In May 2021, we issued 600,000 shares of Series A 6.5% cumulative perpetual CPS in a private placement transaction involving a limited number of qualified institutional buyers. Each share of preferred stock has a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, plus accumulated but unpaid dividends, and is convertible, at the holder's option at any time into 44.9585 shares (the conversion rate) of our common stock per share of preferred stock. Cumulative cash dividends on the preferred stock are payable at an annual rate of 6.5% quarterly in arrears on February 15, May 15, August 15, and November 15, beginning on August 15, 2021, upon declaration of the dividend by our Board of Directors. Assuming that our Board of Directors approves dividends, the preferred stock will require approximately $39 million of annual dividend payments. Moreover, the issuance created added complexity to our quarterly EPS calculations. Accordingly, in determining our diluted earnings impact of the preferred stock, we will now assess the correlation between net earnings attributable to Fluor and dividends on the preferred stock as well as the effect of conversions of the preferred stock into our common stock, which could represent up to 27 million potentially dilutive shares. After May 20, 2022 and before May 2024, we may elect to cause each share of CPS to convert into our common stock at the conversion rate, subject to certain conditions including a make-whole premium before May 2024, if our closing price per common share of our stock exceeds $28.92 for 20 consecutive trading days. After May 2024, we could make a similar election if our closing price per common share of our stock exceeds $22.24 for 20 consecutive trading days. Dividends on the CPS were declared and paid in August and November 2021. Quarterly cash dividends of $0.10 per common share were paid in the first and second quarters of 2020. Quarterly cash dividends of $0.21 per common share were paid in all quarters of 2019. We suspended our common stock cash dividend during April 2020. The payment and level of future cash dividends is subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors. In September 2021, we completed a tender offer in which we repurchased $375 million (face value) of 2023 Notes and $108 million (face value) of 2024 Notes, excluding accrued interest. Additionally, we redeemed $26 million of outstanding 2023 and 2024 Notes in open market transactions during 2021. We recognized $20 million in losses related to these redemptions which is included in interest expense. Other borrowings (debt repayments) represent short-term bank loans and other financing arrangements associated with Stork. 41 Distributions paid to holders of NCI represent cash outflows to partners of consolidated partnerships or joint ventures created primarily for the execution of single contracts or projects. Distributions in 2021 primarily related to a transportation joint venture project in the United States. Distributions in 2020 and 2019 primarily related to a mining joint venture project in Chile. Capital contributions by NCI during 2021 primarily related to new investments totaling $193 million by NuScale's NCI holders. We believe these contributions eliminated the need for any near-term contributions to NuScale by us. Capital contributions by NCI in 2020 related to three infrastructure joint ventures in the United States. Capital contributions by NCI in 2019 primarily related to initial investments from new partners in NuScale. We have a common stock repurchase program, authorized by our Board of Directors, to purchase shares in the open market or privately negotiated transactions at our discretion. As of December 31, 2021, over 10 million shares could still be purchased under the existing stock repurchase program, although we do not have any immediate intent to begin such repurchases. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements Letters of Credit As of December 31, 2021, letters of credit totaling $429 million were outstanding under committed lines of credit and letters of credit totaling $896 million were outstanding under uncommitted lines of credit. Letters of credit are ordinarily provided to indemnify our clients if we fail to perform our obligations under our contracts. Surety bonds may be used as an alternative to letters of credit. Guarantees The maximum potential amount of future payments that we could be required to make under outstanding performance guarantees, which represents the remaining cost of work to be performed, was estimated to be $15 billion as of December 31, 2021. Financial guarantees, made in the ordinary course of business in certain limited circumstances, are entered into with financial institutions and other credit grantors and generally obligate us to make payment in the event of a default by the borrower. These arrangements generally require the borrower to pledge collateral to support the fulfillment of the borrower’s obligation. Inflation Although inflation and cost trends affect our results, we mitigate these trends by seeking to fix our cost at or soon after the time of award on lump-sum or fixed-price contracts or to recover cost increases in cost reimbursable contracts. Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk We have cash and marketable securities on deposit with major banks throughout the world. Such deposits are placed with high quality institutions and the amounts invested in any single institution are limited to the extent possible in order to minimize concentration of counterparty credit risk. Marketable securities may consist of time deposits, registered money market funds, U.S. agency securities, U.S. Treasury securities, commercial paper, non-U.S. government securities and corporate debt securities. We have not incurred any credit risk losses related to deposits in cash or investments in marketable securities. Certain of our contracts are subject to foreign currency risk. We limit exposure to foreign currency fluctuations in most of our contracts through provisions that specify client payments in currencies corresponding to the currency in which cost is expected to be incurred. As a result, we generally have limited situations in which we have to mitigate foreign currency exposure with derivatives. We utilize derivative instruments to mitigate certain financial exposures, including currency and oil price risk associated with EPC contracts, currency risk associated with monetary assets and liabilities denominated in nonfunctional currencies and risk associated with interest rate volatility. As of December 31, 2021, we had total gross notional amounts of $499 million of foreign currency contracts (primarily related to the Canadian Dollar, Chinese Yuan, British Pound, Euro, Indian Rupee and Philippine Peso) and $32 million of commodity contracts. The foreign currency and commodity contracts are of varying duration, none of which extend beyond December 2024. Our historical gains and losses associated with foreign currency contracts have typically been immaterial, and have largely mitigated the exposures being hedged. We do not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes. 42 Our results reported by foreign subsidiaries with non-U.S. dollar functional currencies are also affected by foreign currency volatility. When the U.S. dollar appreciates against the non-U.S. dollar functional currencies of these subsidiaries, our reported revenue, cost and earnings, after translation into U.S. dollars, are lower than what they would have been had the U.S. dollar depreciated against the same foreign currencies or if there had been no change in the exchange rates. Our long-term debt typically features a fixed-rate coupon, and therefore, our exposure to interest rate risk is not material. Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data The information required by this Item is submitted as a separate section of this Form 10-K as described in Item 15. Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure None. Item 9A. Controls and Procedures Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures As defined in Rule 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Exchange Act, our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures. These controls and procedures should be designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on their evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2021. Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate ICFR that is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Our management, including our CEO and CFO, conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our ICFR as of December 31, 2021 based upon the framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO 2013) and concluded that our ICFR was effective. Ernst & Young LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an attestation report on the effectiveness of our ICFR. Their report follows this management report. Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting There have been no changes in our ICFR during the fourth quarter of 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our ICFR. 43 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Fluor Corporation Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting We have audited Fluor Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). In our opinion, Fluor Corporation (the Company) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on the COSO criteria. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of Fluor Corporation as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2021, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”) and our report dated February 22, 2022 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon. Basis for Opinion The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on The Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to The Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Dallas, Texas February 22, 2022 44 Item 9B.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2021, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) and our report dated February 22, 2022 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon. Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matters The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates. Description of the Matter Long-term revenue recognition on certain engineering and construction contracts As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company recognizes engineering and construction contract revenue over time, due to the continuous transfer of control to the customer, based primarily on contract cost incurred to date compared to total estimated contract cost. Revenue recognition under this method is judgmental, particularly on lump-sum contracts, as it requires the Company to prepare estimates of total contract revenue and total contract costs, including costs to complete in-process contracts. Auditing the Company’s estimates of total contract revenue and costs on certain engineering and construction contracts which are larger in size and longer in duration involved significant auditor judgment, as it required the evaluation of subjective assumptions related to forecasted labor costs and variable consideration, specifically as it relates to potential liquidated damages and contractual claims. F-2 How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design, and tested the operating effectiveness of controls over the estimation process that affect revenue recognition, including controls over management’s monitoring and review of project costs yet to be incurred and variable consideration estimates. Our audit procedures included, among others, evaluating the appropriate application of the Company’s revenue recognition method; testing significant assumptions used to develop the estimated variable consideration and costs to complete; and testing the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data. To assess the reasonableness of these estimates, we performed audit procedures that included, among others, agreeing the estimates to supporting documentation; conducting interviews with project personnel; attending select project review meetings; and performing sensitivity analyses or retrospective review using historical actual costs and trends. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP We have served as the Company‘s auditor since 1973.

F-8 FLUOR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. Description of Business Fluor Corporation (“we”, “us”, “our” or “the company”) is a holding company that owns many subsidiaries, as well as interests in joint ventures. Acting through these entities, we are one of the largest professional services firms providing EPC, fabrication and modularization, and project management services, on a global basis. We provide these services to our clients in a diverse set of industries worldwide including production and fuels, chemicals, LNG, nuclear project services, infrastructure, advanced technologies, life sciences and mining and metals. We are also a service provider to the U.S. federal government and governments abroad. During the first quarter of 2021, we changed the composition of our segments to implement our new strategy and to pursue opportunities in our designated markets. We now report our operating results in four segments as follows: Energy Solutions, Urban Solutions, Mission Solutions and Other. Segment operating information and assets for 2020 and 2019 have been recast to conform to these changes. Energy Solutions focuses on opportunities in the production and fuels, chemicals, LNG and nuclear project services market. The segment provides solutions to the energy transition market, including asset decarbonization, carbon capture, renewable fuels, waste-to-energy, green chemicals, hydrogen, nuclear power and other low-carbon energy sources. The segment also continues to serve the traditional oil, gas and petrochemical industries with full project life-cycle services, including expansion and modernization projects as well as sustaining capital work. Urban Solutions provides EPC and project management services to the infrastructure, advanced technologies, life sciences and mining and metals industries, as well as professional staffing services. Mission Solutions focuses on federal agencies across the U.S. government and select international opportunities. These include, among others, the DOE, the Department of Defense, the Federal Emergency Management Agency and intelligence agencies. The segment also provides services to commercial nuclear clients. Other includes only the operations of NuScale, in which we are the majority investor. NuScale is developing an SMR technology. In the first quarter of 2021, we committed to a plan to sell our Stork business, which had previously represented the majority of operations from our former diversified services segment. The sale of the North American portion of the AMECO equipment business was completed during May 2021. Therefore, both Stork and AMECO are reported as Disc Ops along with other immaterial operations. We expect to complete the sale of Stork and the remaining AMECO operations early in 2022. The assets and liabilities of the Stork and AMECO businesses are classified as held for sale for all periods presented. In December 2021, we announced that NuScale, in which we are the majority investor, signed a merger agreement with Spring Valley Acquisition Corp., a special purpose acquisition company ("Spring Valley"). Spring Valley is acquiring an approximately 20% interest in NuScale. The proposed transaction is anticipated to close in the first half of 2022, subject to customary closing conditions. Upon completion of the merger, we estimate that we will own approximately 60-70% of the combined company and expect that we will continue to consolidate it. 2. Significant Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation The financial statements include the accounts of Fluor Corporation and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions of consolidated subsidiaries are eliminated. Certain amounts in 2020 and 2019 have been reclassified to conform to the 2021 presentation, which includes the segregation of Disc Ops and assets and liabilities held for sale. Certain amounts in tables may not total or agree to the financial statements due to immaterial rounding differences. Management has evaluated all material events occurring subsequent to December 31, 2021 through the filing date of the 2021 10-K. We frequently form joint ventures or partnerships with others primarily for the execution of single contracts or projects. If a joint venture or partnership is a VIE and we are the primary beneficiary, the joint venture or partnership is consolidated and our partners' interests are recognized as NCI. As is customary in our industry, for unconsolidated construction partnerships and joint ventures, we generally recognize our proportionate share of revenue, cost and profit and use the one- line equity method for the investment. In other instances, the cost and equity methods of accounting are used, depending on F-9 FLUOR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) our respective ownership interest and amount of influence on the entity, as well as other factors. At times, we also execute projects through collaborative arrangements for which we recognize our relative share of revenue and cost. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts. These estimates are based on information available through the date of the issuance of the financial statements. Therefore, actual results could differ from those estimates. Foreign Currency Translation Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. For our international subsidiaries, the functional currency is typically the currency of the primary economic environment in which each subsidiary operates. Translation gains and losses are recorded in OCI. Gains and losses from remeasuring foreign currency transactions into the functional currency are included in earnings. Revenue Recognition Engineering and construction contracts. We recognize engineering and construction contract revenue over time as we provide services to satisfy our performance obligations. We generally use the cost-to-cost percentage-of-completion measure of progress as it best depicts how control transfers to our clients. The cost-to-cost approach measures progress towards completion based on the ratio of contract cost incurred to date compared to total estimated contract cost. Engineering and construction contracts are generally accounted for as a single unit of account (a single performance obligation) and are not segmented between types of services on a single project. Cost of revenue includes an allocation of depreciation and amortization. Where applicable, customer-furnished materials, labor and equipment and subcontractor materials, labor and equipment, are included in revenue and cost of revenue when management believes that we are acting as a principal rather than as an agent (i.e., we integrate the materials, labor and equipment into the deliverables promised to the customer). Customer-furnished materials are only included in revenue and cost when the contract includes construction activity and we have visibility into the amount the customer is paying for the materials or there is a reasonable basis for estimating the amount. We recognize revenue, but not profit, on certain uninstalled materials that are not specifically produced, fabricated, or constructed for a project. Revenue on these uninstalled materials is recognized when the cost is incurred and control is transferred. Changes to total estimated contract cost or losses, if any, are recognized in the period in which they are determined as assessed at the contract level. Pre-contract costs are expensed as incurred unless they are expected to be recovered from the client. Project mobilization costs are generally charged to project costs as incurred when they are an integrated part of the performance obligation being transferred to the client. Customer payments on engineering and construction contracts are typically due within 30 to 45 days of billing, depending on the contract. Service contracts. For the majority of our operations and maintenance contracts, revenue is recognized when services are performed and contractually billable. For all other service contracts, we recognize revenue over time using the cost-to- cost percentage-of-completion method. Service contracts that include multiple performance obligations are segmented between types of services. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, we allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation using an estimate of the stand-alone selling price of each distinct service in the contract. Revenue recognized on service contracts that has not been billed to clients is recorded as contract assets. Amounts billed to clients in excess of revenue recognized on service contracts to date are recorded as contract liabilities. Customer payments on service contracts are typically due within 30 to 90 days of billing, depending on the contract. Variable consideration. The nature of our contracts gives rise to several types of variable consideration, including claims, unpriced change orders, award and incentive fees, liquidated damages and penalties. We consider variable consideration in the development of our project forecasts so that our forecasted revenue reflects the amount of consideration we expect to be probable of recovering without a significant reversal. We estimate the amount of revenue to be recognized on variable consideration using the expected value method (i.e., the sum of probability-weighted amounts) or the most likely amount method, whichever offers better prediction. Warranties. We generally provide limited duration warranties for work performed under our contracts. Historically, warranty claims have not resulted in material costs incurred, and any estimated costs for warranties are included in the individual project cost estimates for purposes of accounting for long-term contracts. F-10 FLUOR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Practical Expedients. If we have a right to consideration from a customer in an amount that corresponds directly with the value of our performance completed to date (a service contract in which we bill a fixed amount for each hour of service provided), we recognize revenue in the amount to which we have a right to invoice for services performed. We do not adjust the contract price for the effects of a significant financing component where, at contract inception, the period between service provision and customer payment will be one year or less. We exclude from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes assessed by governmental authorities that are collected by us from our customers (use taxes, value added taxes, some excise taxes). RUPO. RUPO represents a measure of the value of work to be performed on contracts awarded and in progress. Although RUPO reflects business that is considered to be firm, cancellations, deferrals or scope adjustments may occur. RUPO is adjusted to reflect any known project cancellations, revisions to project scope and cost, foreign currency exchange fluctuations and project deferrals, as appropriate. RUPO differs from backlog discussed elsewhere in the 2021 10-K. Backlog includes the amount of revenue we expect to recognize under ongoing operations and maintenance contracts for the remainder of the current year renewal period plus up to three additional years if renewal is considered to be probable, while RUPO includes only the amount of revenue we expect to recognize under ongoing operations and maintenance contracts with definite terms and substantive termination provisions. Project Estimates Due to the nature of our industry, there is significant complexity in our estimation of total expected revenue and cost, for which we must make significant judgments. Our contracts with our customers may contain award fees, incentive fees, liquidated damages or other provisions that can either increase or decrease the contract price to arrive at estimated revenue. These variable amounts generally are earned upon achievement of certain performance metrics, program milestones or cost targets and can be based upon customer discretion. We estimate variable consideration at the most likely amount to which we expect to be entitled. We include estimated amounts in the transaction price to the extent it is probable we will realize that amount. Our estimates of variable consideration and our determination of its inclusion in project revenue for accounting purposes are based on an assessment of our anticipated performance and other information that may be available to us. At a project level, we have specific practices and procedures to review our estimate of total revenue and cost. Each project team reviews the progress and execution of our performance obligations, which impact the project’s accounting outcome. As part of this process, the project team reviews information such as any outstanding key contract matters, progress towards completion and the related program schedule and identified risks and opportunities. The accuracy of our revenue and profit recognition in a given period depends on the accuracy of our project estimates, which can change from period to period due to a variety of factors including: • Complexity in original design; • Extent of changes from original design; • Different site conditions than assumed in our bid; • The productivity, availability and skill level of labor; • Weather conditions when executing a project; • The technical maturity of the technologies involved; • Length of time to complete the project; • Availability and cost of equipment and materials; • Subcontractor and joint venture partner performance; • Expected costs of warranties; and • Our ability to recover for additional contract costs. We recognize changes in contract estimates on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period in which the changes are identified. Such changes in contract estimates can result in the recognition of revenue in a current period for performance obligations which were satisfied or partially satisfied in prior periods. Changes in contract estimates may also result in the reversal of previously recognized revenue if the current estimate adversely differs from the previous estimate. If we estimate that a project will have costs in excess of revenue, we recognize the total loss in the period it is identified. Contract Assets and Liabilities Contract assets represent revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed and include unbilled receivables (typically for cost reimbursable contracts) and contract work in progress (typically for fixed-price contracts). Unbilled receivables, which F-11 FLUOR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) represent an unconditional right to payment subject only to the passage of time, are recognized as accounts receivable when they are billed. Advances that are payments on account of contract assets are deducted from contract assets. We anticipate that substantially all incurred cost associated with contract assets as of December 31, 2021 will be billed and collected within one year. Contract liabilities represent amounts billed to clients in excess of revenue recognized to date. Segment Reporting Management evaluates segment performance based on segment profit. We incur cost and expenses and hold certain assets at the corporate level which relate to our business as a whole. Certain of these amounts have been charged to our business segments by various methods, largely on the basis of usage. Total assets not allocated to segments and held in "Corporate and other" primarily include cash, marketable securities, income-tax related assets, pension assets, deferred compensation trust assets and corporate property, plant and equipment. Segment profit is an earnings measure that we utilize to evaluate and manage our business performance. Segment profit is calculated as revenue less cost of revenue and earnings attributable to NCI. Variable Interest Entities We assess our partnerships and joint ventures at inception to determine if any meet the qualifications of a VIE. We consider a partnership or joint venture a VIE if it has any of the following characteristics: (a) the total equity investment is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, (b) characteristics of a controlling financial interest are missing (either the ability to make decisions through voting or other rights, the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity or the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity), or (c) the voting rights of the equity holders are not proportional to their obligations to absorb the expected losses of the entity and/or their rights to receive the expected residual returns of the entity, and substantially all of the entity's activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights. Upon the occurrence of certain events, we reassess our initial determination of whether the partnership or joint venture is a VIE. The majority of our partnerships and joint ventures qualify as VIEs because the total equity investment is typically nominal and not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. We also perform a qualitative assessment of each identified VIE to determine if we are its primary beneficiary. We conclude that we are the primary beneficiary and consolidate the VIE if we have both: (a) the power to direct the economically significant activities of the entity and (b) the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. We consider the contractual agreements that define the ownership structure, distribution of profits and losses, risks, responsibilities, indebtedness, voting rights and board representation of the respective parties in determining if we are the primary beneficiary. We also consider all parties that have direct or implicit variable interests when determining whether we are the primary beneficiary. Management's assessment of whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE is continuously performed. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include securities with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase. Marketable Securities Marketable securities consist of time deposits placed with investment grade banks with original maturities greater than three months, which are typically held-to-maturity because we have the intent and ability to hold them until maturity. Held- to-maturity securities are carried at amortized cost. The cost of securities sold is determined by using the specific identification method. Marketable securities are assessed at least annually for other-than-temporary impairment. F-12 FLUOR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Research and Development We have a controlling interest in NuScale, a research and development operation associated with the licensing and commercialization of SMR technology. Since May 2014, NuScale has been receiving reimbursement from the DOE for certain qualified expenditures under cost-sharing award agreements that require NuScale to use the DOE funds to cover engineering costs associated with SMR design development and certification. Costs incurred by NuScale are expensed as incurred, net of qualifying DOE reimbursements, and reported in "Cost of revenue". The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission approved NuScale's design certification application in August 2020. Aside from NuScale, we generally do not engage in significant research and development activities. Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their economic lives or the lease terms. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the following ranges of estimated useful service lives, in years: Buildings Building and leasehold improvements Machinery and equipment Furniture and fixtures Estimated Useful Service Lives 20 – 40 6 – 20 2 – 10 2 – 10 Goodwill and Intangible Assets Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized but are subject to at least annual impairment tests during the fourth quarter. For impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to the applicable reporting units based on the current reporting structure. We may elect to utilize a qualitative assessment to evaluate whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of each reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If so, we perform a quantitative test, and if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, we recognize an impairment loss. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are impaired if their carrying value exceeds their fair value. In-process research and development associated with our investment in NuScale is considered indefinite lived until the related technology is available for commercial use. Interim impairment testing of goodwill and intangible assets is performed if indicators of potential impairment exist. Such indicators may include the results of operations of certain businesses and geographies and the performance of the company stock price. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. Income Taxes Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax filings. We evaluate the realizability of our deferred tax assets and record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be realized. The factors used to assess the likelihood of realization are our forecast of future taxable income and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize such assets. Failure to achieve forecasted taxable income could affect the ultimate realization of deferred tax assets and could adversely impact our future effective tax rate. Income tax positions are recognized when they meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are derecognized upon such determination. We recognize potential interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax positions as a component of income tax expense. Judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes as we consider our worldwide taxable earnings and the impact of the continuing audit process conducted by various tax authorities. The final outcome of any audits could differ materially from amounts recognized by the company. We account for the GILTI effects in the period that is subject to such tax. F-13 FLUOR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Derivatives and Hedging We may attempt to limit foreign currency exposure in most of our contracts by denominating contract revenue in the currencies in which cost is incurred. Certain financial exposure, which includes currency and commodity price risk associated with engineering and construction contracts, currency risk associated with monetary assets and liabilities denominated in nonfunctional currencies and risk associated with interest rate volatility, may subject us to earnings volatility. We may implement a hedging strategy utilizing derivatives instruments to mitigate such risk. All derivatives are recorded at fair value. The change in the fair value of the derivative is offset against the change in the fair value of the underlying asset or liability through earnings. To a lesser extent, we also utilize cash flow hedges. We formally document our hedge relationships at inception and subsequently assess hedge effectiveness qualitatively, unless the hedge relationship is no longer highly effective. For cash flow hedges, the change in fair value is recorded as a component of AOCI and is reclassified into earnings when the hedged item settles. In certain limited circumstances, foreign currency payment provisions could be deemed embedded derivatives. If an embedded foreign currency derivative is identified, the derivative is bifurcated from the host contract and the change in fair value is recognized through earnings. We maintain master netting arrangements with certain counterparties to facilitate the settlement of derivative instruments; however, we report the fair value of derivatives on a gross basis. Concentrations of Credit Risk Accounts receivable and all contract work in progress are from clients in various industries and locations throughout the world. Most contracts require payments as the projects progress or, in certain cases, advance payments. We generally do not require collateral, but in most cases can place liens against the project assets or terminate the contract, if a material default occurs. We evaluate the counterparty credit risk as part of our project risk review process and in determining the appropriate level of reserves. We maintain reserves for potential credit losses and generally such losses have been minimal and within management's estimates. We have cash and marketable securities on deposit with major banks throughout the world. Such deposits are placed with high quality institutions and the amounts invested in any single institution are limited to the extent possible in order to minimize concentration of counterparty credit risk. Our counterparties for derivatives are large financial institutions selected based on profitability, strength of balance sheet, credit ratings and capacity for timely payment of financial commitments. There are no significant concentrations of credit risk with any individual counterparty related to our derivative contracts. We monitor the credit quality of our counterparties and establish reserves for any significant credit risk losses. Stock-Based Plans Our stock plans provide for grants of nonqualified or incentive stock options, RSUs, restricted stock and performance- based award units, including VDI units. All grants of stock options and RSUs as well as performance-based units awarded to Section 16 officers in 2021, 2020 and 2019 can only be settled in company stock and are accounted for as equity awards. All expense under stock-based awards is recognized based on the fair values of the awards. Stock option awards have grant exercise prices equal to the grant date market price of the company's stock. The fair value of grants of RSUs and restricted stock is determined using the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant but may be discounted for any significant post-vest holding periods. The grant date fair value of performance-based award units is determined by adjusting the closing price of the company's common stock on the date of grant for any post-vest holding period discounts and for the effect of market conditions, when applicable. Stock-based compensation expense is generally recognized over the required service period, or over a shorter period when employee retirement eligibility is a factor. We also grant SGI awards and performance-based awards to non-Section 16 executives which are settled in cash. These awards are classified as liabilities and remeasured at fair value through expense at the end of each reporting period until the awards are settled. F-14 FLUOR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Leases We recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases with terms greater than 12 months or leases that contain a purchase option that is reasonably certain to be exercised. Leases are classified as either finance or operating leases. This classification dictates whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Our right-of use assets and lease liabilities primarily relate to office facilities, equipment used in connection with long- term construction contracts and other personal property. Certain of our facility and equipment leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term up to 10 years. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our discretion. Renewal periods are included in the expected lease term if they are reasonably certain of being exercised by us. Certain leases also include options to purchase the leased property. None of our lease agreements contain material residual value guarantees or material restrictions or covenants. Long-term leases (leases with terms greater than 12 months) are recorded as liabilities at the present value of the minimum lease payments not yet paid. We use our incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of the lease when the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. Certain lease contracts contain nonlease components such as maintenance, utilities, fuel and operator services. We recognize both the lease component and nonlease components as a single lease component for all of its right-of-use assets. From time to time, certain service or purchase contracts may contain an embedded lease. Short-term leases (leases with an initial term of 12 months or less or leases that are cancelable by the lessee and lessor without significant penalties) are not capitalized but are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The majority of our short-term leases relate to equipment used on construction projects. We enter into these leases at periodic rental rates for an unspecified duration and typically have a termination for convenience provision. 3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Accounting Pronouncements Implemented During 2021 In the first quarter of 2021, we adopted ASU 2020-06, “Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity,” which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments and the application of the derivatives scope exception for contracts in our own equity. ASU 2020-06 eliminates two of the three models in the prior guidance that required separating embedded conversion features from convertible instruments and also eliminates some of the requirements for equity classification. ASU 2020-06 also addresses how convertible instruments are accounted for in the diluted EPS calculation. The adoption did not have any impact on our financial statements. F-15 FLUOR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) 4. Earnings Per Share Potentially dilutive securities include CPS, stock options, RSUs, restricted stock and performance-based award units. Diluted EPS reflects the assumed exercise or conversion of all dilutive securities using the if-converted and treasury stock methods. In computing diluted EPS, only securities that are actually dilutive are included.

The revenue of a single Energy Solutions customer and its affiliates amounted to 15% and 13% of our consolidated revenue during 2021 and 2020, respectively. The revenue of a different Energy Solutions customer and its affiliates amounted to 13% of our consolidated revenue during 2019. Segment profit in 2021 included the collection of previously reserved accounts receivable and losses on embedded foreign currency derivatives. Segment profit in 2020 included the recognition of reserves totaling $60 million for expected credit losses on aged receivables as well as margin diminution resulting from COVID related cost growth. Segment loss in 2019 included charges associated with forecast revisions on certain projects including $260 million (or $1.85 per share) for cost growth on an offshore project; $87 million (or $0.62 per share) for cost growth on two downstream projects and scope reductions on a large upstream project; $26 million (or $0.19 per share) for the write-off of pre-contract costs, $26 million (or $0.19 per share) on embedded foreign currency derivatives and $31 million (or $0.22 per share) from the resolution of close- out matters. Urban Solutions. Segment profit in 2021 included forecast revisions for procurement and subcontractor cost growth, delays and disruptions in schedule of a legacy infrastructure project, resulting in a charge of $138 million (or $0.72 per share). Segment profit in 2021 also included forecast revisions for schedule delays and productivity on a light rail project, a favorable resolution of a long-standing customer dispute on a road project and a gain on the sale of our interest in an infrastructure joint venture. Segment profit in 2020 included a positive settlement on a canceled rail project as well as charges for cost growth in the infrastructure legacy portfolio. Segment loss in 2019 included forecast revisions totaling $135 million (or $0.96 per share) for three power projects and $133 million (or $0.95 per share) for several infrastructure projects. Segment loss in 2019 was partially offset by a gain of $31 million (or $0.16 per share) resulting from a favorable resolution of a longstanding customer dispute on a mining project. Mission Solutions. Revenue from work performed for various agencies of the U.S. government amounted to 24%, 20% and 17% of our consolidated revenue during 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Segment loss in 2019 included charges of $59 million (or $0.42 per share) and $83 million (or $0.59 per share) on two lump-sum projects, respectively, for various engineering and cost growth associated with the facilities. The 2019 charges were partially offset by a favorable settlement on two nuclear power plant projects in 2019. Other. NuScale received capital contributions from outside investors of $193 million, $9 million and $49 million during 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Impairment, Restructuring and Other Exit Costs Impairment Impairment expense, included in Cont Ops, for 2021, 2020 and 2019 is summarized as follows: (in thousands) Impairment expense: Energy Solutions' equity method investments Information technology assets Total impairment expense Year Ended December 31, 2020 2019 2021 $ $ 27,934 15,858 43,792 $ 86,096 $ 256,769 — 16,269 $ 102,365 $ 256,769 Our business has been adversely affected by the impacts of COVID and the steep decline in oil prices that occurred in early 2020. These events created significant uncertainty and economic volatility and disruption, which have impacted and may continue to impact our business. We experienced reductions in demand for certain services and the delay or abandonment of ongoing or anticipated projects due to our clients’, suppliers’ and other third parties’ diminished financial condition. Although oil prices have rebounded in 2021 and 2022, we have not yet seen our energy clients respond with elevated capital expenditures for our services. During 2021, 2020 and 2019, we evaluated our significant investments and determined that certain of our investments were impaired. The fair value of these investments were determined using unobservable Level 3 inputs based on the forecast of anticipated volumes and overhead absorption in a cyclical business. Restructuring and Other Exit Costs During 2019, we initiated a restructuring plan designed to optimize costs and improve operational efficiency. These efforts primarily related to the rationalization of resources, investments, real estate and overhead across various geographies. The recognition of costs for the planned restructuring activities was substantially completed by the end of 2020. We did not recognize any material restructuring costs during 2021.

Beyond those limits, we expect current earnings to be available for distribution. Deferred tax liabilities of approximately $31 million have not been recorded with respect to unremitted earnings that are considered indefinitely reinvested, again primarily associated with foreign withholding and income taxes that would be due upon remittance. We have no intention of initiating any actions that would lead to taxation of the earnings deemed indefinitely reinvested. As of December 31, 2021, tax credit carryforwards, principally federal, and tax loss carryforwards, principally federal, state, and foreign, were as follows: (in thousands) Expiration periods: 2022 - 2026 2027-2031 2032-2041 Indefinite Federal FTC Federal NOLs State NOLs Foreign NOLs $ 94,317 $ 361,595 — — — — — 163,099 $ 10,932 $ 34,034 351,159 131,680 40,177 56,255 5,783 1,177,047 During 2021 and 2020, we were in a three-year cumulative loss on a consolidated, jurisdictional basis in Australia, the Netherlands, the U.K. and the U.S. Such cumulative loss constitutes significant negative evidence (with regards to future taxable income) for assessing likelihood of realization. We also considered positive evidence but concluded it did not outweigh this significant negative evidence of a three-year cumulative loss. Accordingly, we recognized non-cash charges to tax expense of $10 million and $142 million to record a valuation allowance against net U.S. deferred tax assets and $42 million and $28 million against certain net foreign deferred tax assets during 2021 and 2020, respectively. We also reduced a valuation allowance for $18 million in AOCI against net deferred tax assets primarily related to the Netherlands' pension settlement that occurred in the fourth quarter of 2021. F-21 FLUOR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) In the normal course of business, we are subject to examination by taxing authorities worldwide, including such major jurisdictions as Australia, Canada, Chile, the Netherlands, the U.K. and the U.S. Although we believe our reserves for our tax positions are reasonable, the outcome of tax audits could be materially different, both favorably and unfavorably. With a few exceptions, we are no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations for years before 2012. A summary of unrecognized tax benefits follows: (in thousands) Balance at beginning of year Change in tax positions of prior years Change in tax positions of current year Reduction in tax positions for statute expirations Reduction in tax positions for audit settlements Balance at end of year 2021 $ 48,413 2020 $ 42,394 — — (514) — 8,166 — (1,510) (637) $ 47,899 $ 48,413 If recognized, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, would favorably impact the effective tax rates by $30 million in both years. We had $13 million and $11 million of accrued interest and penalties as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. We do not anticipate any significant changes to the unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months.

Partnerships and Joint Ventures In the normal course of business, we form partnerships or joint ventures primarily for the execution of single contracts or projects. The majority of these partnerships or joint ventures are characterized by a 50% or less, noncontrolling ownership or participation interest, with decision making and distribution of expected gains and losses typically being proportionate to the ownership or participation interest. Many of the partnership and joint venture agreements provide for capital calls to fund operations, as necessary. Investments in a loss position of $240 million were included in other accrued liabilities as of December 31, 2021 and consisted primarily of provision for anticipated losses on a legacy infrastructure project. Accounts receivable related to work performed for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures included in "Accounts and notes receivable, net" were $204 million and $207 million as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The following is a summary of aggregate, unaudited balance sheet data for unconsolidated entities where our investment is presented as a one-line equity method investment: (in millions) Current assets Noncurrent assets Current liabilities Noncurrent liabilities $ December 31, 2021 2020 10,154 $ 3,755 7,860 3,527 8,129 4,744 6,301 4,353 The following is a summary of aggregate, unaudited income statement data for unconsolidated entities where the equity method of accounting is used to recognize our share of net earnings or loss of investees: (in millions) Revenue Cost of revenue Net earnings 2021 2020 2019 $ 1,585 $ 1,000 52 1,196 $ 1,094 54 1,211 1,112 43 During 2021, 2020 and 2019, we evaluated our significant investments and determined that certain of our investments were impaired. As a result, we recognized impairment expense of $28 million, $86 million and $257 million during 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. One of our more significant joint ventures is COOEC Fluor, in which we have a 49% ownership interest. COOEC Fluor owns, operates and manages the Zhuhai Fabrication Yard in China’s Guangdong province. We made a capital contribution of $26 million to the joint venture during the first quarter of 2021, which satisfied our contractual funding requirements. During 2021, we sold our 10% ownership interest in an infrastructure joint venture and recognized a gain of $20 million, which was included in Urban Solutions' segment profit. During 2020, we sold our interests in three infrastructure joint ventures and recognized a gain of $8 million. We also sold our 50% ownership interest in Sacyr Fluor and recognized a loss of $11 million, which was included in Energy Solutions' segment profit. Variable Interest Entities The aggregate carrying value of the unconsolidated VIEs (classified under both "Investments" and "Other accrued liabilities") was a net asset of $30 million and $174 million as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Some of our VIEs have debt; however, such debt is typically non-recourse in nature to Fluor. Our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our investments in unconsolidated VIEs is typically limited to the aggregate of the carrying value of the investment and future funding necessary to satisfy the contractual obligations of the VIE. Future funding commitments as of December 31, 2021 for the unconsolidated VIEs were $57 million. In some cases, we are required to consolidate certain VIEs. Assets and liabilities associated with the operations of our consolidated VIEs are presented on the balance sheet. The assets of a VIE are restricted for use only for the particular VIE and are not available for our general operations. We have agreements with certain VIEs to provide financial or performance assurances to clients, as discussed elsewhere. F-23 FLUOR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) 10. Guarantees In the ordinary course of business, we enter into various agreements providing performance assurances and guarantees to our clients on behalf of certain unconsolidated and consolidated partnerships, joint ventures and other jointly executed contracts. These agreements are entered into primarily to support project execution commitments. Performance guarantees have various expiration dates ranging from mechanical completion to a period extending beyond contract completion. The maximum potential amount of future payments that we could be required to make under outstanding performance guarantees, which represents the remaining cost of work to be performed, was estimated to be $15 billion as of December 31, 2021. For cost reimbursable contracts, amounts that may become payable pursuant to guarantee provisions are normally recoverable from the client for work performed. For lump-sum contracts, the performance guarantee amount is the cost to complete the contracted work, less amounts remaining to be billed to the client under the contract. Remaining billable amounts could be greater or less than the cost to complete. In those cases where costs exceed the remaining amounts payable under the contract, we may have recourse to third parties, such as owners, partners, subcontractors or vendors for claims. There were no liabilities related to performance guarantees as of December 31, 2021 and 2020. In certain limited circumstances, financial guarantees are entered into with financial institutions and other credit grantors and generally obligate us to make payment in the event of a default by the borrower. These arrangements generally require the borrower to pledge collateral to support the fulfillment of the borrower's obligation. 11. Contingencies and Commitments We and certain of our subsidiaries are subject to litigation, claims and other commitments and contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the asserted value of these matters may be significant, we currently do not expect that the ultimate resolution of any open matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations. Since May 2018, purported shareholders have filed various complaints against Fluor and certain of its current and former executives in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas. The plaintiffs purport to represent a class of shareholders who purchased or otherwise acquired Fluor common stock from August 14, 2013 through February 14, 2020, and seek to recover damages arising from alleged violations of federal securities laws. These claims are based on statements concerning Fluor’s internal and disclosure controls, risk management, revenue recognition, and Fluor’s gas-fired power contracts, which plaintiffs assert were materially misleading. As of May 26, 2020, these complaints have been consolidated into one matter. We filed a motion to dismiss the matter on July 1, 2020. The motion was granted in part on May 5, 2021, and as a result the Court dismissed with prejudice all allegations except those related to a single statement made in 2015 about one gas-fired power contract. While no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of this matter, during 2021 we recorded a liability for the estimated resolution of the matter and we also recognized the effects of expected insurance coverage. Since September 2018, eleven separate purported shareholders' derivative actions were filed against current and former members of the Board of Directors, as well as certain of Fluor’s current and former executives. Fluor is named as a nominal defendant in the actions. These derivative actions purport to assert claims on behalf of Fluor and make substantially the same factual allegations as the securities class action matter discussed above and seek various forms of monetary and injunctive relief. These actions are pending in Texas state court (District Court for Dallas County), the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, and the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware. Certain of these actions were consolidated and stayed, at least while our motion to dismiss was pending in the securities class action matter. We anticipate seeking a further stay until final resolution of the securities class action. While no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of this matter, we do not believe it is probable that a loss will be incurred. Accordingly, we have not recorded any liability as a result of these actions. Fluor Australia Ltd., our wholly-owned subsidiary (“Fluor Australia”), completed a cost reimbursable engineering, procurement and construction management services project for Santos Ltd. (“Santos”) involving a large network of natural gas gathering and processing facilities in Queensland, Australia. On December 13, 2016, Santos filed an action in Queensland Supreme Court against Fluor Australia, asserting various causes of action and seeking damages and/or a refund of contract proceeds paid of approximately AUD $1.47 billion. Santos has joined Fluor to the matter on the basis of a parent company guarantee issued for the project. We believe that the claims asserted by Santos are without merit and we are vigorously defending these claims. While no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of this matter, we do not believe it is probable that a loss will be incurred. Accordingly, we have not recorded any liability as a result of this action. F-24 FLUOR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Fluor Limited, our wholly-owned subsidiary (“Fluor Limited”), and Fluor Arabia Limited, a partially-owned subsidiary (“Fluor Arabia”), completed cost reimbursable engineering, procurement and construction management services for Sadara Chemical Company (“Sadara”) involving a large petrochemical facility in Jubail, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. On August 23, 2019, Fluor Limited and Fluor Arabia Limited commenced arbitration proceedings against Sadara after it refused to pay invoices totaling approximately $100 million due under the contracts. As part of the arbitration proceedings, Sadara has asserted various counterclaims for damages and/or a refund of contract proceeds paid totaling approximately $574 million against Fluor Limited and Fluor Arabia Limited. We believe that the counterclaims asserted by Sadara are without merit and are vigorously defending these claims. While no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of the counterclaims, we do not believe it is probable that a loss will be incurred in excess of amounts reserved for this matter. Accordingly, we have not recorded any further liability as a result of the counterclaims. Various wholly-owned subsidiaries of Fluor, in conjunction with a partner, TECHINT, (“Fluor/TECHINT”) performed engineering, procurement and construction management services on a cost reimbursable basis for Barrick Gold Corporation involving a gold mine and ore processing facility on a site straddling the border between Argentina and Chile. In 2013, Barrick terminated the Fluor/TECHINT agreements for convenience and not due to the performance of Fluor/TECHINT. On August 12, 2016, Barrick filed a notice of arbitration against Fluor/TECHINT, demanding damages and/or a refund of contract proceeds paid of not less than $250 million under various claims relating to Fluor/TECHINT’s alleged performance. Proceedings were suspended while the parties explored a possible settlement. In August 2019, Barrick drew down $36 million of letters of credit from Fluor/TECHINT ($24 million from Fluor and $12 million from TECHINT). Thereafter, Barrick proceeded to reactivate the arbitration. Barrick and Fluor/TECHINT have exchanged detailed statements of claim and counterclaim pursuant to which Barrick’s claim against Fluor/TECHINT now totals approximately $364 million. We believe that the claims asserted by Barrick are without merit and are vigorously defending these claims. While no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of this matter, we do not believe it is probable that a loss will be incurred. Accordingly, we have not recorded any liability as a result of these claims. Other Matters We have made claims arising from the performance under our contracts. Factors considered in determining whether revenue associated with claims should be recognized include: (a) the legal basis for the claim, (b) additional costs were caused by circumstances that were unforeseen at the contract date and not the result of deficiencies in our performance, (c) claim- related costs are identifiable and considered reasonable in view of the work performed, and (d) evidence supporting the claim is objective and verifiable. Similarly, we recognize disputed back charges to suppliers or subcontractors as a reduction of cost when the same requirements have been satisfied. We periodically evaluate our positions and the amounts recognized with respect to all our claims and back charges. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, we had recorded $215 million and $216 million, respectively, of claim revenue for costs incurred to date. Additional costs, which will increase the claim revenue balance over time, are expected to be incurred in future periods. We had no material disputed back charges to suppliers or subcontractors as of December 31, 2021 and 2020. From time to time, we enter into contracts with the U.S. government and its agencies. Government contracts are subject to audits and reviews by government representatives with respect to our compliance with various restrictions and regulations applicable to government contractors, including but not limited to the allowability of costs incurred under reimbursable contracts. In connection with performing government contracts, we maintain reserves for estimated exposures associated with these matters. Our operations are subject to and affected by federal, state and local laws and regulations regarding the protection of the environment. We maintain reserves for potential future environmental cost where such obligations are either known or considered probable, and can be reasonably estimated. We believe that our reserves with respect to future environmental cost are adequate and such future cost will not have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations. In February 2020, we announced that the SEC is conducting an investigation and has requested documents and information related to projects for which we recorded charges in the second quarter of 2019. In April 2020 and January 2022, Fluor received subpoenas from the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) seeking documents and information related to the second quarter 2019 charges; certain of the projects associated with those charges; and certain project accounting, financial reporting and governance matters. Such inquiries are ongoing, and we have continued to respond to the SEC and DOJ and cooperate in these investigations.

This credit facility contains customary financial covenants, including a debt-to-capitalization ratio that cannot exceed 0.65 to 1.00, a limitation on the aggregate amount of debt of the greater of $750 million or €750 million for our subsidiaries, and a minimum liquidity threshold of $1.25 billion, all as defined in the credit facility. The credit facility also contains provisions that will require us to provide collateral if we are downgraded to BB by S&P and Ba2 by Moody's, such collateral consisting broadly of liens on our U.S. assets. Borrowings under the facility, which may be denominated in USD, EUR, GBP or CAD, bear interest at a base rate, plus an applicable borrowing margin. As of December 31, 2021, we could have borrowed an additional $779 million under our credit facility. In February 2022, we amended our credit facility to extend the maturity to February 2025, increase the size of the facility to $1.8 billion and decrease the debt-to-capitalization ratio to 0.60 to 1.00. Uncommitted Lines of Credit As of December 31, 2021, letters of credit totaling $896 million were outstanding under uncommitted lines of credit, although no amounts were drawn. Senior Notes In September 2021, we completed a tender offer in which we repurchased $375 million of 2023 Notes and $108 million of 2024 Notes, excluding accrued interest. Additionally, we redeemed $26 million of outstanding 2023 and 2024 Notes in open market transactions during the 2021 period. We used the proceeds from the issuance of CPS to redeem the 2023 and 2024 Notes. We recognized $20 million in losses related to these redemptions which is included in interest expense. In August 2018, we issued $600 million of 4.250% Senior Notes due in September 2028 ("2028 Notes") and received proceeds of $595 million. Interest on the 2028 Notes is payable semi-annually in March and September. Prior to June 2028, we may redeem the 2028 Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus a “make whole” premium described in the indenture. After June 2028, the 2028 Notes can be redeemed at par plus accrued interest. In March 2016, we issued €500 million of 1.750% Senior Notes due in March 2023 ("2023 Notes") and received proceeds of €497 million. Interest on the 2023 Notes is payable annually in March. Prior to December 2022, we may redeem the 2023 Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus a "make whole" premium described in the indenture. After December 2022, the 2023 Notes can be redeemed at par plus accrued interest. Additionally, we may redeem the 2023 Notes at par plus accrued interest if certain changes in U.S. tax laws occur. In November 2014, we issued $500 million of 3.5% Senior Notes due in December 2024 ("2024 Notes") and received proceeds of $491 million. Interest on the 2024 Notes is payable semi-annually in June and December. Prior to September 2024, we may redeem the 2024 Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus a "make whole" premium described in the indenture. After September 2024, the 2024 Notes can be redeemed at par plus accrued interest. For all of the Senior Notes, a change of control (as defined by the terms of the respective indentures) could require the company to repay them at 101% of the principal amount, plus accrued interest. We may incur additional indebtedness if we are in compliance with certain restrictive covenants, including restrictions on liens and restrictions on sale and leaseback transactions. 15. Preferred Stock In May 2021, we issued 600,000 shares of Series A 6.5% cumulative perpetual CPS in a private placement transaction involving a limited number of qualified institutional buyers. The CPS, with respect to dividend rights or rights upon liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of Fluor, ranks senior to all classes of common stock and to any other class of capital stock or series of preferred stock that may be established (except in certain circumstances). The CPS is, however, junior to our existing and future debt. The CPS does not have a maturity date. Cumulative cash dividends on the preferred stock are payable at an annual rate of 6.5% quarterly in arrears on February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15, upon declaration of the dividend by our Board of Directors. Dividends accumulate from the most recent date on which dividends have been paid. CPS dividends of $9 F-27 FLUOR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) million and $10 million were paid in August 2021 and October 2021, respectively. In January 2022, our Board of Directors approved the payment of a preferred stock dividend of $10 million. Each share of preferred stock has a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, plus accumulated but unpaid dividends, and is convertible, at the holder's option at any time into 44.9585 shares of our common stock per share of preferred stock. The conversion rate is subject to certain customary adjustments, but no payment or adjustment for accumulated but unpaid dividends will be made upon conversion, subject to certain limited exceptions. The preferred stock may not be redeemed by us; however, we may, at any time on or after May 20, 2022, elect to cause all outstanding shares of preferred stock to be automatically converted into shares of our common stock at the conversion rate, subject to certain conditions (and, if such automatic conversion occurs prior to May 20, 2024, the payment of a cash make-whole premium). If a make-whole fundamental change, as defined in the certificate of designations for the preferred stock, occurs, we will in certain circumstances be required to increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert shares of preferred stock in connection with such make-whole fundamental change. The shares of preferred stock have no voting rights except if and when dividends on the preferred stock are in arrears and have been unpaid with respect to six or more quarterly dividend payment dates (whether or not consecutive). In such events, the holders of the preferred stock would be entitled to elect two additional directors to the board of directors. Such voting rights are exercisable until all dividends in arrears have been paid in full, at which time the voting rights and the term of the two additional directors terminate. Concurrent with the issuance of the CPS, 200,000 shares of preferred stock previously designated as Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock were eliminated and returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock, without designation. 16. Fair Value Measurements The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation techniques into the following three levels: • • • Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities Level 2 — inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that are observable, either directly or indirectly Level 3 — unobservable inputs We perform procedures to verify the reasonableness of pricing information received from third parties for significant assets and liabilities classified as Level 2.

Generally, upon termination of employment, RSUs and restricted stock which have not vested are forfeited. RSUs granted to executives in 2021, 2020 and 2019 generally vest over 3 years. RSUs granted to one executive in 2020 vest over 5 years. RSUs granted to directors in 2021, 2020 and 2019 vested upon grant. RSUs awarded to directors in 2019 (as well as one RSU award to a director in 2020) are subject to a post-vest holding period of 3 years. The fair value of RSUs that vested during 2021, 2020 and 2019 was $14 million, $5 million and $14 million, respectively. The balance of unamortized RSU expense as of December 31, 2021 was $6 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted- average period of 2.0 years. The exercise price of options represents the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. The options granted in 2021, 2020 and 2019 generally vest over 3 years and expire 10 years after the grant date. Options granted to one executive in 2020 vest over 5 years. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercised during 2021 and 2019 was $0.8 million and $0.3 million, respectively. There were no stock option exercises during 2020. The balance of unamortized stock option expense as of December 31, 2021 was $3 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.0 year.

During 2021, 2020 and 2019, performance-based award units totaling 613,868; 1,156,365; and 350,532, respectively, were awarded to Section 16 officers. These awards generally cliff vest after a period of 3 years and contain annual performance conditions for each of the 3 years of the vesting period. Under GAAP, performance-based awards are not deemed granted until the performance targets have been established. The performance targets for each year are generally established in the first quarter. Accordingly, only one-third of the units awarded in any given year are deemed to be granted each year of the 3 year vesting periods. During 2021, the following units were granted based upon the establishment of performance targets: 2021 Performance Award Plan 2020 Performance Award Plan 2019 Performance Award Plan Performance- based Award Units Granted in 2021 204,623 385,455 116,844 Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share $20.49 $19.98 $20.18 For awards granted under the 2021, 2020 and 2019 performance award plans, the number of units are adjusted at the end of each performance period based on achievement of certain performance targets and market conditions, as defined in the award agreements. The balance of unamortized compensation expense associated with performance-based award units as of December 31, 2021 was less than $2 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.0 years. Liability Awards We grant SGI awards in the form of stock units, determined by dividing the target amount by the closing price of our common stock at the grant date. Each stock unit represents the right to receive cash equal to the value of one share of our common stock upon vesting. SGI awards granted to executives vest and become payable at a rate of one-third of the total award each year. Compensation expense of $67 million, $25 million and $6 million related to SGI awards was included in G&A in 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Liabilities associated with SGI awards were $73 million and $29 million as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. During 2021, 2020 and 2019, performance-based awards were awarded to non-Section 16 executives and will be settled in cash. Compensation expense of $7 million, $3 million and $8 million related to these performance-based awards was included in G&A in 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Liabilities associated with these awards were $7 million and $16 million as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. F-31 FLUOR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) 19. Retirement Plans DC Plans Domestic and international DC plans are available to eligible salaried and craft employees. Company contributions to DC plans are based on an employee's eligible compensation and participation rate. We recognized expense of $128 million, $130 million and $115 million associated with contributions to our DC plans during 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. DB Plans Certain DB plans are available to eligible international salaried employees. Contributions to DB plans are at least the minimum amounts required by applicable regulations. Benefit payments under these plans are generally based upon length of service and/or qualifying compensation. Net periodic pension expense for our DB Plans included the following components: (in thousands) Service cost Interest cost Expected return on assets Amortization of prior service credit Recognized net actuarial loss Curtailments (Gain) loss on settlements Net periodic pension expense(1) Year Ended December 31, $ 2021 17,490 7,333 $ 2020 18,129 9,899 $ 2019 15,750 19,617 (28,577) (26,304) (32,645) (856) 5,875 15 198,132 (903) 5,806 — (406) (886) 10,303 — 137,898 $ 199,412 $ 6,221 $ 150,037 (1) Net periodic pension expense of $1 million, $2 million and $2 million during 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively, was reported as Disc Ops. The service cost component of net periodic pension expense is presented in “Cost of revenue” and the other components of net periodic pension expense are presented in “G&A” and "(Gain) loss on pension settlement". Plan Settlements Our largest DB plan, which provided retirement benefits to certain employees in the Netherlands, was terminated in December 2021, at which point the remaining benefit obligations were transferred to a plan not sponsored by Fluor and we were substantially relieved of any further obligation. Our DB plan in the United Kingdom was terminated in December 2019, at which point the remaining benefit obligations were transferred to an insurer and we were relieved of any further obligation. The loss on settlement in both years consisted primarily of unrecognized actuarial losses included in AOCI and did not impact our cash position. Retirement benefits in these countries are now administered through DC plans. DB Plan Assumptions The ranges of assumptions indicated below cover DB plans in the Netherlands, Germany and the Philippines and are based on the economic environment in each host country at the end of each reporting period. The discount rates for the DB plans were determined primarily based on a hypothetical yield curve developed from the yields on high quality corporate and government bonds with durations consistent with the pension obligations in those countries. The expected long-term rate of return on asset assumptions utilizing historical returns, correlations and investment manager forecasts are established for all relevant asset classes including international equities and government, corporate and other debt securities. F-32 FLUOR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) For determining PBO at year-end: Discount rates Rates of increase in compensation levels For determining net periodic cost for the year: Discount rates Rates of increase in compensation levels Expected long-term rates of return on assets 2021 December 31, 2020 2019 1.20-4.75% 2.25-5.00% 0.80-3.50% 2.25-6.00% 0.80-5.70% 0.80-3.50% 2.25-6.00% 1.20-4.75% 2.25-6.00% 1.20-5.60% 1.20-4.75% 2.25-6.00% 1.80-7.25% 2.25-7.00% 1.80-8.20% We evaluate the funded status of each of our DB plans using the above assumptions and determine the appropriate funding level in light of applicable regulatory requirements, tax deductibility, reporting considerations and other factors. The funding status of the plans is sensitive to changes in long-term interest rates and returns on plan assets, and funding obligations could increase substantially if interest rates fall dramatically or returns on plan assets are below expectations. Assuming no changes in current assumptions, we expect to contribute up to $13 million to our DB plans in 2022, which is expected to be in excess of the minimum funding required. If the discount rates were reduced by 25 basis points, plan liabilities would increase by approximately $5 million. DB Plan Assets The following table sets forth the target and actual allocations of plan assets: Asset category: Debt securities Equity securities Other Total 2021 Target Allocation 2021 2020 December 31, 25% - 35% 10% - 20% 50% - 60% 28 % 17 % 55 % 100 % 63 % 28 % 9 % 100 % Our investment strategy is to maintain asset allocations that appropriately manage risk within the context of seeking adequate returns. Investment allocations are determined by each plan's governing body. Asset allocations may be affected by local regulations. Long-term allocation guidelines are established with a target range allocation for each asset class. Short- term deviations from these allocations may exist from time to time for tactical investment or strategic implementation purposes. Investments in debt securities are used to provide stable investment returns while protecting the funding status of the plans. Investments in equity securities are utilized to generate long-term capital appreciation to mitigate the effects of increases in benefit obligations resulting from inflation, longer life expectancy and salary growth. While most of our plans may invest in the company's securities, there are no such direct investments at the present time. Plan assets included investments in common or collective trusts ("CCTs"), which offer efficient access to diversified investments across various asset categories. The estimated fair value of the investments in the CCTs represents the net asset value of the shares or units of such funds as determined by the issuer. At the present time, there no restrictions on how the plans may redeem their investments. Debt securities are comprised of corporate bonds, government securities and CCTs with underlying investments in corporate bonds, government and asset backed securities and interest rate swaps. Corporate bonds primarily consist of investment-grade rated bonds and notes, of which no significant concentration exists in any one rating category or industry. Government securities include international government bonds, some of which are inflation-indexed. Corporate bonds and government securities are valued based on pricing models, which are determined from a compilation of primarily observable market information, broker quotes in non-active markets or similar assets. F-33 FLUOR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Equity securities span various industries and are comprised of common stocks of international companies as well as CCTs with underlying investments in common and preferred stocks. Publicly traded corporate equity securities are valued based on the closing price of an active market or exchange. Inactive securities are valued at the last reported bid price. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, direct investments in equity securities were concentrated in international securities. Other plan assets include guaranteed investment contracts and CCTs. Guaranteed investment contracts are insurance contracts that guarantee a principal repayment and a stated rate of interest. The estimated fair value of these insurance contracts, which are Level 3 assets, represents the discounted value of guaranteed benefit payments. CCTs hold underlying investments primarily in commodities.

Multiemployer Pension Plans In addition to our DB plans, we participate in multiemployer pension plans for unionized construction and maintenance craft employees. Company contributions are based on the hours worked by employees covered under various collective bargaining agreements and totaled $44 million, $38 million and $32 million during 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Upon withdrawal from a multiemployer plan, we may have an obligation to make additional contributions for our share of any unfunded benefit obligation, but only if we do not meet the requirements of any applicable exemptions. For one of our discontinued operations, we participate in a multiemployer plan in which we are aware of a significant unfunded benefit obligation. However, we believe we qualify for an exemption and do not believe we have a probable payment to the plan. F-36 FLUOR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Therefore, we have not recognized a liability related to this unfunded benefit obligation. 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 we are not responsible for the current or future funding of these plans. 20. Other Noncurrent Liabilities We have deferred compensation plans and other retirement arrangements for executives which generally provide for payments upon retirement, death or termination of employment. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the obligations related to these plans totaled $324 million and $329 million, respectively, within noncurrent liabilities. To fund these obligations, we have established non-qualified trusts, which are included in noncurrent assets. These trusts hold life insurance policies and marketable securities. These trusts were valued at $330 million and $350 million as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Periodic changes in the value of these trust investments, most of which are unrealized, are recognized in earnings, and serve to mitigate changes to the obligations which are also reflected in earnings. We maintain appropriate levels of insurance for business risks, including workers compensation and general liability. Insurance coverages contain various retention amounts for which we provide accruals based on the aggregate of the liability for reported claims and an actuarially determined estimated liability for claims incurred but not reported.
