Management Commentary

Gary Matthews, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “The safety and health of our employees, customers, and communities are our top priority and I am proud of how the entire IES family has adapted and persevered in these unprecedented times. Our second quarter results reflect the commitment of the teams at our operating units, who diligently continued to serve our customers and the critical infrastructure they support, which ranges from data centers to medical facilities to housing. While we anticipate that the challenges arising from COVID-19 will not be over soon, we believe that our resilient portfolio of businesses, sound financial position, and the dedication of the entire IES team will continue to be key assets that help us meet the needs of our customers.

“Operationally, the Company performed well during the second quarter in the face of the coronavirus pandemic and disruptions as many of our business activities were deemed to be essential under state or local directives based on the customers or markets served. Despite delays on certain projects, consolidated revenue and operating income increased 13% and 12%, respectively, over the same quarter last year. Both our Residential and Communications segments continued their strong growth with revenue increasing 39% and 36%, respectively, compared to the same quarter last year, while operating income increased 85% and 67%, respectively. Our Commercial & Industrial segment continued to be impacted by a combination of project execution difficulties on certain projects and reduced volume in a competitive marketplace, compounded by disruptions caused by COVID-19. In response, we are taking steps to improve this segment’s performance, including changes to its organization structure, sales strategy, and cost structure. We are moving to reduce overhead expenses

2

and have progressed to the implementation phase on our procurement project, which we expect to yield savings on materials purchased in the coming quarters. Our Infrastructure Solutions segment experienced a 15% revenue decrease and an 18% decrease in operating income compared to the same quarter last year, largely reflecting project delays and a strong comparable quarter a year ago.

“As part of our capital allocation strategy, we expanded our business with two strategic bolt-on acquisitions, Aerial Lighting & Electric and Plant Power & Control Systems. The acquisition of Aerial Lighting & Electric accelerates our Residential segment’s growth into a new market while Plant Power & Control Systems expands the electro-mechanical products and services offered by our Infrastructure Solutions segment. Both companies have strong leaders and effective management teams and we are delighted to welcome them to the IES family.”

Tracy McLauchlin, Chief Financial Officer, added, “We entered the COVID-19 crisis in a position of financial strength and finished the quarter with a cash balance, net of debt, of $15 million as of March 31, 2020, after deploying $29 million to acquire Aerial Lighting & Electric and Plant Power & Control Systems. As our strong second quarter cash flow demonstrates, we are keenly focused on working capital management and prudent capital spending. Although we ended the second quarter with a long-term debt balance of $29 million, we subsequently have repaid $15 million of that amount in April 2020. While the full impact of the pandemic on our business is unclear at this time, and we may see additional project delays and cancellations, we believe that our backlog of $587 million at quarter-end provides visibility for the remainder of fiscal 2020 and into fiscal 2021. In addition, we expect that our strong liquidity position and disciplined capital allocation philosophy will continue to support our long-term growth strategy, while helping to position the Company to manage through times of economic uncertainty.”

Net Operating Loss Carryforwards

The Company estimates that it has available Net Operating Loss Carryforwards (NOLs) for U.S. federal income tax purposes of approximately $306 million at September 30, 2019, including approximately $144 million resulting from net operating losses on which a deferred tax asset is not recorded. The Company’s common stock is subject to a Rights Plan dated November 8, 2016, which is intended to assist in limiting the number of 5% or more owners of the Company’s common stock and thereby reduce the risk of a possible “ownership change” under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Any such “ownership change” under these rules would limit or eliminate the ability of the Company to use its existing NOLs for federal income tax purposes. There is no guarantee that the Rights Plan will achieve the objective of preserving the value or realization of the NOLs.

Stock Buyback Plan

In 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized and announced a stock repurchase program for purchasing up to 1.5 million shares of our common stock from time to time, and on May 2, 2019, authorized the repurchase of up to an additional 1.0 million shares. During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the Company repurchased 178,431 shares at an average price of $22.60 per share, and for year-to-date fiscal 2020, the Company repurchased 198,248 shares at an average price of $22.59 per share. The Company had 1,058,737 shares remaining under its stock repurchase authorization at March 31, 2020.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Adjustments

This press release includes adjusted net income attributable to IES, adjusted earnings per share attributable to IES, and backlog, and, in the non-GAAP reconciliation tables included herein, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income before taxes, each of which is a financial measure not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”). Management believes that these measures provide useful information to our investors by, in the case of adjusted net income attributable to IES, adjusted earnings per share attributable to IES, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income before taxes, distinguishing certain nonrecurring events such as litigation settlements or significant expenses associated with leadership changes, or noncash events, such as our valuation allowances release and write-down of our deferred tax assets, or, in the case of backlog, providing a common measurement used in IES’s industry, as described further below, and that these measures, when reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, help our investors to better identify underlying trends in the operations of our business and facilitate easier comparisons of our financial performance with prior and future periods and to our peers. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information calculated in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, which has been provided in the financial tables included in this press release.

Remaining performance obligations represent the unrecognized revenue value of our contract commitments. While backlog is not a defined term under GAAP, it is a common measurement used in IES’s industry and IES believes this non-GAAP measure enables it to more effectively forecast its

4

future results and better identify future operating trends that may not otherwise be apparent. IES’s remaining performance obligations are a component of IES’s backlog calculation, which also includes signed agreements and letters of intent which we do not have a legal right to enforce prior to work starting. These arrangements are excluded from remaining performance obligations until work begins. IES’s methodology for determining backlog may not be comparable to the methodologies used by other companies.

For further details on the Company’s financial results, please refer to the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2020, to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) by May 5, 2020, and any amendments thereto.
