Fluor Q1 revenue falls 8% to $3.6 billion; top of 2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance cut
Fluor reported first-quarter 2026 results on May 8, 2026. GAAP net earnings attributable to Fluor were $160 million, or $1.08 per share, compared with a loss of $241 million a year earlier, helped by a $124 million gain on the sale of CFHI. However, revenue fell 8% to $3.6 billion, adjusted EBITDA fell to $60 million from $155 million, and the company lowered the upper end of its 2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance, which matters to shareholders because it signals weaker expected profit for the year.
Key points
- Revenue was $3.6 billion, down 8% year over year; GAAP EPS was $1.08 versus a loss of $1.42 a year earlier, while adjusted EPS was $0.14 versus $0.73.
- Adjusted EBITDA guidance for 2026 was narrowed to $525 million to $560 million from $525 million to $585 million, citing cost growth on a mining project in the Americas and a temporary slowdown on another project due to Middle East geopolit
