                and
                earnings per share is mainly due to the decrease in productivity

        Stantec President &amp; CEO. &#8220;This year we focused on integrating the
        approximately 1,400 employees we added to Stantec in 2005 and 2006 and the
        ongoing execution of our plan to become a top 10 global design

        advantage is the ability to use its diverse service offering and geographic
        reach and operate as one team throughout North America. For example, in 2006
        the
        firm won acclaim for its sustainable design work in Vancouver, British Columbia
        on Southeast False Creek, a 36-hectare (80-acre) mixed-use "green" community
        being developed as the 2010 Olympic Athletes Village on a reclaimed industrial
        site in the inner city and is a pilot project for the LEED&#174; New Community
        Standard. As leaders of the infrastructure design team, Stantec prepared
        the
        urban design and site servicing plan for the community, bringing together
        expertise in project management, urban design, and civil, structural,
        electrical, and mechanical engineering. The firm created innovative stormwater
        retention and bio-filtration systems, a district heating system recovering
        heat
        from sanitary sewers resulting in a zero net energy residential building,
        along
        with parks, plazas, waterfront walkways, roadways, and street lighting for
        the
        development. In Klickitat County, Washington, a Stantec team made up of
        employees from Portland, Oregon and Edmonton, Alberta are working for PPM
        Energy
        on the Big Horn Wind Project providing consulting and design services for
        the
        development of a 133-turbine wind farm. In Manitoba, Stantec's Buildings
        and
        Environment groups teamed up to serve as the prime consultant, providing
        all
        civil, mechanical, electrical, and structural engineering services as well
        as
        architecture and project management, for a major expansion of the South End
        Water Pollution Control Centre for the City of Winnipeg.</font><br></div>

        statements have, in management&#8217;s opinion, been properly prepared within
        reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the accounting
        policies summarized below. The effects of differences between the application

        January 1, 2005, the Company adopted Accounting Guideline 15 (AcG-15),
        "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" (VIEs) of the Canadian Institute
        of Chartered Accountants (CICA) Handbook. VIEs are those entities that are
        subject to control on a basis other than ownership of voting interests. AcG-15
        provides guidance for identifying VIEs and requires the primary beneficiary
        of a
        VIE to consolidate the VIE. These consolidated financial statements include
        all
        VIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The initial adoption
        of
        this accounting guideline on a prospective basis did not have an impact on
        the
        Company's consolidated financial statements.</font></div>

        of
        revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates
        used in
        the preparation of these consolidated financial statements include the
        percentage of completion of fixed-fee and variable-fee-with-ceiling contracts,
        provisions for losses on incomplete contracts, allowances for doubtful accounts
        receivable, provision for legal claims, provision for self-insured liabilities,
        the fair value of stock-based awards, the fair value of identifiable intangible

        November 2006, the CICA issued the new handbook Section 3862, &#8220;Financial
        Instruments--Disclosures,&#8221; and Section 3863, &#8220;Financial
        Instruments--Presentation,&#8221; effective for annual and interim periods beginning
        on or after October 1, 2007. These pronouncements further aligned Canadian
        GAAP
        with US GAAP (note 21). Early adoption of these recommendations is permitted.
        Section 3862 requires companies to provide disclosures in their financial
        statements that enable users to evaluate a) the significance of financial
        instruments for the company&#8217;s financial position and performance and b) the
        nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments to which the
        company is exposed during the period and at the balance sheet date and how
        the
        company manages these risks. Section 3863 establishes standards for the
        presentation of financial instruments. It addresses the classification of
        financial instruments between liabilities and equity; the classification
        of
        related interest, dividends, and losses and gains; and the circumstances
        in
        which financial assets and financial liabilities are offset. These new standards
        are not expected to have a material effect on the Company&#8217;s financial position
        or results of operations. </font></div>

        are accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and the results
        of
        operations since the respective dates of acquisition are included in the
        consolidated statements of income. From time to time, as a result of the

        of acquisitions in relation to the Company's reporting schedule, certain
        of the
        purchase price allocations may not be finalized at the initial time of
        reporting. Purchase price allocations are completed after the vendors' final
        financial statements and income tax returns have been prepared and accepted
        by
        the Company. Such preliminary purchase price allocations are based on
        management's best estimates of the fair value of the acquired assets and
        liabilities. Upon finalization, adjustments to the initial estimates may
        be
        required, and these adjustments may be material.</font></div>

        generally result in an increase or reduction to the promissory note
        consideration recorded at acquisition to reflect either more or less non-cash
        working capital realized than was originally expected. These purchase price
        adjustments, therefore, have no net effect on the original purchase price

        the settlement of similar claims, and the results of the annual actuarial
        review, management believes that the Company has recognized adequate provisions

        option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value
        of
        traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable.
        In
        addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective
        assumptions, including expected stock price volatility. Because the Company's
        employee stock options have characteristics that are significantly different
        from those of traded options, and because changes in subjective input
        assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's
        opinion the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single
        measure
        of the fair value of the Company's employee stock options.</font></div>

        The
        Company considers the basis on which it is organized, including geographic
        areas
        and service offerings, in identifying its reportable segments. Operating
        segments of the Company are defined as components of the Company for which
        separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by
        the
        chief operating decision maker in allocating resources and assessing
        performance. The chief operating decision maker is the Chief Executive Officer
        of the Company, and the Company's operating segments are based on its regional
        geographic areas. </font></div>

        2006
        the Company had three operating segments (2005 - five operating segments)
        that
        were aggregated into the Consulting Services reportable segment. Prior to
        2005,
        the Company had eight operating segments, six of which were aggregated into
        Consulting Services. The two remaining operating segments (Design Build and
        Technology), which were below the quantitative thresholds in the recommendations
        of the CICA, were disclosed in the Other reportable segment. During 2004,
        the
        Company sold the operations relating to the Design and Technology segments.
        These operations were not presented as discontinued operations, because the
        amounts were not material.</font></div>

        fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2006. FIN 48 creates a single
        model for addressing the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. It
        also
        clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition
        threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in
        financial statements. In addition, this interpretation provides guidance
        on
        derecognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting
        in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The Company will adopt FIN
        48 as
        of January 1, 2007, as required. The adoption of this pronouncement is not
        expected to have a material effect on the Company&#8217;s financial position or
        results of operations.</font></div>

        after November 15, 2007. SFAS 157 establishes a framework for measuring fair
        value under US GAAP and requires additional disclosure. The statement defines
        a
        fair value hierarchy, with the highest priority being quoted prices in active
        markets. Under this statement, fair value measurements are disclosed by level
        within the hierarchy. This standard does not require any new fair value

      we
      have integrated a total of over 4,300 employees into the Stantec family from

      three acquisitions, including two in the United States, which established a
      new
      geographic subregion in New England and platforms for growth in Florida and
      Texas, and one in Ontario, Canada. In total, these acquisitions added over
      315
      employees to our operations. We are confident that we can continue to take
      advantage of acquisition opportunities because we operate in an industry sector
      that includes more than 100,000 firms and is estimated to generate over US$60
      billion in revenue in North America every year, of which we currently have

      compound annual rate of 20.3%. To fund such growth, we require cash generated
      from both internal and external sources. Historically, we have completed
      acquisitions using mostly cash and notes while at opportune times raising
      additional equity to replenish our cash reserves, pay down debt, or strengthen
      our balance sheet. To date, we have issued additional shares for these purposes

      consideration for acquisition activity was $18.5 million in 2006 and $228.7
      million in 2005. In March 2006, we acquired Carinci Burt Rogers Engineering,
      Inc., which added over 20 employees in the Greater Toronto Area and strengthened
      our electrical engineering practice. In April 2006, we acquired Dufresne-Henry,
      Inc., adding over 270 employees and 12 office locations to our Company. The
      acquisition of this multidiscipline design firm, which offers services in
      engineering, planning, environmental sciences, and landscape architecture,
      complemented our New York operations, expanded our services into four new states
      in New England, and established an initial presence in Florida. In May 2006,
      we
      acquired the communications systems engineering firm ACEx Technologies, Inc.,
      which added over 25 staff and new locations in Oakland, California, and Irving,
      Texas, and complemented our services in transit, rail and power communications,
      and as control systems engineering. As a result of our investment in our
      enterprise management system in 2003 as well as subsequent enhancements, we
      were
      able to quickly integrate these acquisitions during 2006.</font></div>

      The
      decrease in current assets was mainly due to a reduction in restricted cash
      used
      to fund acquisitions in 2006, the repayment of acquired debt, and the payment
      of
      promissory notes for acquisitions completed in prior years as further described
      in the Working Capital section below. The increase in non-current assets was
      mainly due to a $8.8 million increase in goodwill and a $6.5 million increase
      in
      property and equipment resulting from internal growth and growth through
      acquisitions in the year.</font></div>

      2005, to $8.2 million at December 31, 2006. We were able to repay our credit
      facility from cash generated from operations in the year. From 2004 to 2005,
      our
      credit facility increased $55.0 million mainly to finance the acquisitions
      in
      2005.</font></div>

      $4.6 million, $1.4 million, and $1.3 million were due to revenue earned from
      the
      acquisition of Keen Engineering Co. Ltd., CPV Group Architects &amp; Engineers
      Ltd., Carinci Burt Rogers Engineering, Inc., The Keith Companies, Inc. (Keith),
      and Dufresne-Henry, Inc., respectively. Foreign exchange negatively affected
      the
      change in gross revenue from 2005 to 2006 by $1.6 million. In 2006 the Buildings
      practice area continued to secure larger projects and to experience higher
      project volumes. In particular, it continued to be very active in western
      Canada, resulting in a strong backlog. For example, in Q3 06 we secured a
      multimillion-dollar contract to provide mechanical, electrical, and civil
      engineering services for the development of an acute care hospital facility&#8212;the
      Legacy project&#8212;in Vancouver, British Columbia. In addition, we were recently
      awarded a multimillion-dollar contract to design a three-module &#8220;campus&#8221; style
      facility for a banking institution in Calgary, Alberta. To assist in meeting
      increased demand, the practice area made use of work-sharing initiatives across
      the Company in 2006. We believe the Buildings practice area is well positioned
      to provide sustainable design expertise and solutions to clients into
      2007.</font><br>

      $15.7 million of the increase in gross revenue in 2006, offset by a $2.3 million
      negative impact from foreign exchange. The Environment practice area remained
      strong due to larger projects, higher labor utilization rates, and the strong

      $8.9
      million was due to acquisitions. The revenue earned from the industrial and
      project management practice acquired from the Keith acquisition accounted for
      $8.1 million of the acquisition growth. In addition, internal growth accounted
      for $20.1 million of the increase in gross revenue in 2006, offset by a $2.0
      million negative impact from foreign exchange. The internal growth in 2006
      was
      primarily due to securing projects in the oil sands sector in western Canada.
      For example, during the year, the practice area completed a multimillion-dollar
      contract to provide services for the development of facilities and
      infrastructure for the Fort Hills Oil Sands project in northern Alberta. We
      believe the oil sands sector in western Canada will remain strong into 2007.

      our

      to
      our strong market position in these regions, our overall performance in urban

      The increases in gross margins can be attributed to the same factors discussed
      above. Because of the nature of our business model, which is based on
      diversifying our operations across geographic regions, practice areas, and
      all
      phases of the infrastructure and facilities project life cycle, there will
      continue to be fluctuations in the margins reported from year to year depending

      and marketing expenses as a percentage of net revenue were 41.3% in 2006
      compared to 40.6% in 2005. The increase was mainly due to an additional $3.2
      million of performance and retention bonuses arising from acquisitions completed
      in the current and prior years. As well, when we implemented an improved system
      for invoicing project-related administrative costs in 2005, we continued to
      reflect these recoveries as part of revenue, but we now report the costs in
      administrative and marketing expenses. This has contributed to both the
      increased gross margin and the increased administrative and marketing expenses
      in 2006. The 41.3% in 2006 was within the expected range of 40 to 42% set out
      in
      our 2005 Annual Report.</font></div>

      and marketing expenses as a percentage of net revenue were 40.6% in 2005

      million reduction of our allowance for doubtful accounts. This adjustment was
      based on improved information available on our historical loss experience.
      As
      well, our enhanced processes for identifying projects that qualify for
      Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&amp;ED) tax credits in
      Canada reduced our administrative and marketing expenses by $1.2 million in
      2005. The above reductions were offset by a $4.6 million increase in our
      professional liability claims cost, which was based on the results of an
      independent actuarial review completed in 2005. </font></div>

      rate than that of net revenue. The $3.2 million increase in depreciation from
      2005 to 2006 was primarily due to the addition of property and equipment from
      acquisitions made in the fourth quarter of 2005 and in 2006. The reduction

      timing of completed acquisitions, the size of acquisitions, and the type of

      assets in each year. Client relationships and other intangible assets are
      amortized over estimated useful lives ranging from 10 to 15 years, whereas
      contract backlog is amortized over an estimated useful life of generally less
      than one and a half years. As a result, the impact of amortization of contract

      increase of $1.3 million in net interest expense in 2006 compared to 2005 was
      a
      result of our long-term debt balance throughout the first two quarters of 2006
      being higher than in the same period in 2005 and the prevailing interest rates
      in 2006 being higher than in 2005. Near the end of the third quarter of 2005,
      we
      accessed our revolving credit facility to finance the Keith acquisition. At
      December 31, 2005, there was $79.0 million used on our credit facility. At
      December 31, 2006, there was $8.2 million used on our credit facility. In 2006
      we repaid our credit facility using cash generated from operations. Depending
      on
      the form under which the credit facility is accessed and certain financial
      covenant calculations, rates of interest may vary among Canadian prime, US
      base
      rate, or LIBOR or bankers acceptance rates plus 65 or 85 basis points. Our
      average interest rate was 6.0% at December 31, 2006, compared to 4.34% at
      December 31, 2005. We estimate that, based on our loan balance at December
      31,
      2006, a 1% change in interest rates would impact our annual earnings per share
      by less than $0.01.</font></div>

      three quarters of 2005 was less than it was during the same period in 2004,

      position, we were able to reduce the amount of this debt. Therefore, in order
      to
      minimize our exposure to foreign exchange fluctuations, we matched US-dollar
      assets with US-dollar liabilities and entered into forward contracts to buy
      or

      contracts again in the last quarter of 2006. As at December 31, 2006, we had

      of

      that our effective tax rate would be in the range of 32.0 to 34.0% depending
      on
      our estimated earnings in each of our taxing jurisdictions. We review our
      estimated income tax rate quarterly and adjust it based on changes in statutory
      rates in the jurisdictions in which we operate as well as on our estimated
      earnings in each of these jurisdictions. In 2006 the Quebec government enacted
      Bill 15 to amend the Quebec Taxation Act, legislation that retroactively
      eliminated the benefit of certain financing trust arrangements. As a result
      of
      this legislative change, we recorded an additional $1.0 million of income tax
      expense in Q2 06 related to 2005. The impact of this increase was offset by
      the
      relative amount of income earned in our low tax rate jurisdictions, resulting

      million of this increase resulted from acquisitions completed in 2005 and 2006
      and internal growth of $21.4 million, offset by $2.2 million in foreign exchange
      due to the strengthening of the Canadian dollar during 2005 and
      2006.</font></div>

      income during Q4 06 was strong, increasing by $7.6 million, or 95.7%, from
      the
      same period in 2005. Basic earnings per share in Q4 06 increased by $0.17,
      or
      94.4%, compared to the same period in Q4 05. These increases in net income
      and
      earnings per share were mainly due to the growth in gross revenue mentioned
      above as well as a quarterly gross margin of 58.3% compared to 53.5% for the
      same period last year. Due to the nature of our business model, which is based
      on diversifying our operations across geographic regions, practice areas, and
      all phases of the infrastructure and facilities project life cycle, there will
      continue to be fluctuations in our gross margin from period to period depending
      on the mix of projects during any quarter. In addition, our 2005 gross margin
      was low since we integrated approximately 1,000 staff into our Company in Q4
      05
      from the Keith and Keen Engineering Co. Ltd. acquisitions, who were then
      required to learn new practices and processes and understand new systems. Such
      a
      learning curve results in decreased productivity until the learning is complete.

      acquisitions, which occurred in the last half of 2005. With the integration

      Engineering, Inc., Dufresne-Henry, Inc., and ACEx Technologies, Inc.
      acquisitions completed in the first half of 2006. Net income increased by $3.6

      exchange rate risk arises from the revenue and expenses generated or incurred

      with US GAAP. Early adoption of these recommendations is permitted. Section
      3862
      requires companies to provide disclosures in their financial statements that

      company&#8217;s financial position and performance and b) the nature and extent of
      risks arising from financial instruments to which the company is exposed during
      the period and at the balance sheet date and how the company manages those
      risks. Section 3863 establishes standards for the presentation of financial
      instruments. It addresses the classification of financial instruments between
      liabilities and equity; the classification of related interest, dividends,
      and
      losses and gains; and the circumstances in which financial assets and financial
      liabilities are offset. These new standards are not expected to have a material

      significant competition for staff with the skills necessary for providing our
      services from major and boutique consulting, engineering, public agency,
      research, and other professional services firms. Our inability to attract and
      retain qualified staff could impede our ability to secure and complete
      engagements, in which event we may lose market share and our revenue and profits
      could decline. In addition, if our employees were to leave our Company and
      become competitors of ours, we could lose other employees and some of our
      existing clients who have formed relationships with such former employees.
      We
      could also lose <font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman">future

      projects, there are fewer but still many competitors, and many of these
      competitors have greater financial and other resources than we do. Although
      we
      compete with other large private and public companies in certain geographic
      locations, our primary competitors are smaller, privately held regional firms
      in
      the United States and Canada. Generally, competition places downward pressure
      on
      our contract prices and profit margins. However, such impact is difficult to
      quantify. Intense competition is expected to continue in these markets,
      presenting significant challenges to our ability to maintain strong growth
      rates
      and acceptable profit margins. If we are unable to meet these competitive
      challenges, we could lose market share to our competitors and experience an
      overall reduction in our profits. We may not be able to compete successfully
      with such competitors, and such competition could cause us to lose customers,
      increase expenditures, or reduce pricing, any of which could have a material
      adverse effect on our earnings and stock price. </font><br>
