We continued to see significant demand for our differentiated services in water, environment, and sustainable infrastructure across our global operations.

With our record backlog and momentum, we are well positioned to respond to our U.S. and international clients' priorities."

_______________

¹ Non-GAAP financial measures which the Company believes provide valuable perspectives on its business results. Refer to tables at the end of the release and Regulation G Information for reconciliations to the comparable GAAP metrics.

² Reconciliation of the net revenue guidance to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable efforts because the Company cannot predict the magnitude and timing of all the components, including subcontractor costs, required to provide such reconciliation with sufficient precision.

³ The only adjustment in our guidance for EPS is to exclude the legal settlement costs of $0.35 in the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the financial results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), we present certain non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We provide these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe they provide a valuable perspective on our financial results. However, non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation and are not in accordance with, or a substitute for, GAAP measures. In addition, other companies may define non-GAAP measures differently which limits the ability of investors to compare non-GAAP measures of Tetra Tech to those used by our peer companies. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is set forth above in this release.
