CAG loss estimate on BSNL-RJIL deal misread, correction done: MoS Telecom
The Comptroller and Auditor General of India estimates on losses to BSNL from Reliance Jio Infocomm was based on the misinterpretation of a clause on add-on technology, and it has been rectified in a transparent and equitable manner, Parliament was informed on Wednesday. The CAG report tabled in Parliament in April had said the government suffered a loss of ₹1,757.56 crore as state-owned telecom firm BSNL failed to bill Reliance Jio for 10 years since May 2014 as per their agreement on passive infrastructure sharing. "BSNL has Master Service Agreements (MSAs) with M/s RJIL, for leasing of BSNL's tower infrastructure to install their equipment. There is no revenue loss to BSNL and government. The estimate of CAG was based on the misinterpretation of the clause of add-on technology, which has now been rectified in a transparent and equitable manner. BSNL has since raised the revised invoices from RJIL," Minister of State for Telecom, Pemmasani Chandra Sekhar said in the Lok Sabha in a written reply. On measures taken by the government to fix accountability, recover losses and prevent recurrence of such lapses in the functioning of BSNL, Pemmasani said actions such as resolving the ambiguity in agreement clauses, monetisation of surplus inventory, issuance of revised demands and recovery have been taken. "Further, PSUs have been advised to timely process bills and be extra cautious while taking policy/business decisions," he said.

No revenue loss to BSNL, government over lapses flagged by CAG: Pemmasani Chandra Sekhar
New Delhi: There was no revenue loss to BSNL and the government, and the recent estimates quoted in a CAG report were based on misinterpretation of some clauses, Minister for State for Communications Dr PemmasChandra Sekhar informed Lok Sabha on Wednesday in a written Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG) in its report No. 01 of 2025 for the year ending March, 2023 pointed out some lapses in contractual compliance, planning, and billing including the total cumulative financial loss of ₹1,944.92 crore by Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL). Asked by Congress MP Praniti Sushilkumar Shinde whether BSNL failed to enforce the Master Service Agreement with Reliance Jio Infocomm Ltd. (RJIL), resulting in a so-called loss of ₹1,757.76 crore, the Minister, without getting into specifics, responded that BSNL has Master Service Agreements (MSAs) with M/s RJIL, for leasing of BSNL's tower infrastructure to install their equipment. "There is no revenue loss to BSNL and Government. The estimate of CAG was based on the misinterpretation of the clause of add-on technology, which has now been rectified in a transparent and equitable manner. BSNL has since raised the revised invoices from RJIL," the minister's written reply in Lok Sabha read. In another query, the minister was asked whether BSNL deviated from its own Procurement Manual in procuring oversized PIJF underground cables worth ₹80.64 crore, which remain unutilized. To which, the minister said the procurement of higher size PIJF underground cables was as per then extant norms. "However, due to changed competitive scenario in telecom sector, the procured cable could not be fully utilized. The surplus cable has been monetized by BSNL to the tune of ₹70.32 crore and the remaining cable has a sale value of approximately ₹23 Crore," the Lower House was apprised. To recover losses and prevent recurrence of such lapses in the functioning of BSNL and other PSUs, actions such as resolving the ambiguity in agreement clauses, monetisation of surplus inventory, issuance of revised demands and recovery have been taken, the minister supplemented. Further, PSUs have been advised to timely process bills and be extra cautious while taking policy/business decision.

DreamFolks shares fall 5% despite denial of client loss reports
Shares of DreamFolks Services Ltd fell 5% on June 20, despite the company's clarification denying any loss of clients or material impact on its business operations. The stock drop followed a PTI report on June 19, which claimed that major banks and card networks, including ICICI Bank, Axis Bank, and Mastercard, were considering ending aggregator ties with DreamFolks to establish direct partnerships with airport lounge operators. The report also suggested others might follow the same approach. In response, DreamFolks swiftly issued a statement via stock exchanges, strongly refuting the claims. The company said, 'Contract negotiation is a part of the regular business process and has no relation to the alleged news.' It added that client relationships remain robust, with more than 50 active clients under five-year Master Service Agreements (MSAs) that include annual price escalations. DreamFolks emphasized that this structure has been in place since its inception, and there has been no disruption or termination of existing contracts. Dreamfolks shares opened at ₹230.00 and, at the time of writing, touched a high of ₹235.70 before dipping to a low of ₹220.30 in today's trade. The stock remains under pressure, trading significantly below its 52-week high of ₹522.15.

'Despite uncertainty in the current regulatory and economic environments, the fundamentals of our end markets remain strong.

First Quarter 2025 Results Overview Revenue was $1,648.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, an increase of $235.4 million, compared to the same period in 2024. The increase was due to growth in both our Energy and Utilities segments. Operating income was $70.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, an increase of $26.1 million compared to the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to an increase in revenue and improved margins in the Utilities segment. Operating income as a percentage of revenue increased to 4.3 percent from 3.1 percent for the same period in 2024, primarily driven by improved margins in our Utilities segment. This press release includes Non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes these measures enable investors, analysts, and management to evaluate Primoris' performance excluding the effects of certain items that management believes impact the comparability of operating results between reporting periods. In addition, management believes these measures are useful in comparing the Company's operating results with those of its competitors. Please refer to 'Non-GAAP Measures' and Schedules 1, 2, 3, and 4 for the definitions and reconciliations of the Company's Non-GAAP financial measures, including 'Adjusted Net Income,' 'Adjusted EPS' and 'Adjusted EBITDA'. During the first quarter of 2025, net income was $44.2 million compared to $18.9 million in the prior year. Adjusted Net Income was $53.5 million for the first quarter, compared to $25.8 million for the same period in 2024. Diluted earnings per share ('EPS') was $0.81 for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $0.35 for the same period in 2024. Adjusted EPS was $0.98 for the first quarter of 2025, compared to $0.47 for the first quarter of 2024.

Operating performance by segment for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024 were as follows: (1) Represents intersegment revenue and cost of revenue of $23.6 million in the Utilities segment eliminated in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income Expand For the three months ended March 31, 2024 Revenue $ 487,924 — $ 947,578 — $ (22,795 ) (1) $ 1,412,707 — Cost of Revenue 458,446 94.0 % 843,680 89.0 % (22,795 ) (1) 1,279,331 90.6 % Gross Profit 29,478 6.0 % 103,898 11.0 % — 133,376 9.4 % Selling, general and administrative expenses 29,279 6.0 % 37,315 3.9 % 21,994 88,588 6.3 % Transaction and related costs — — 550 550 Operating Income $ 199 0.0 % $ 66,583 7.0 % $ (22,544 ) $ 44,238 3.1 % Expand (1) Represents intersegment revenue and cost of revenue of $22.8 million in the Utilities segment eliminated in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income Expand Utilities Segment ('Utilities'): Revenue increased by $75.5 million, or 15.5 percent, for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024, primarily due to increased activity in our power delivery, communications, and gas operations markets. Operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased by $17.9 million compared to the same period in 2024 due to revenue growth and improved gross margins. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased to 9.2 percent during the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to 6.0 percent for the same period in 2024, primarily due to strong performance in our power delivery market. Energy Segment ('Energy'): Revenue increased by $160.7 million, or 17.0 percent, for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to increased renewable energy activity. Operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased by $12.3 million, or 18.4 percent compared to the same period in 2024, due to strong revenue growth. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue decreased slightly to 10.7 percent during the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to 11.0 percent in the same period in 2024. Other Income Statement Information Selling, general and administrative ('SG&A') expenses were $99.5 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2025, an increase of $10.9 million, or 12.3 percent, compared to the same period in 2024, primarily due to increased people costs to support revenue growth and severance costs associated with the separation agreement entered into with our former Chief Executive Officer ('CEO'). SG&A expense as a percentage of revenue declined to 6.0 percent in the first quarter of 2025, compared to 6.3 percent in the first quarter of 2024. Interest expense, net for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, was $7.8 million compared to $18.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The decrease of $10.2 million was due to lower average debt balances and lower average interest rates. The effective tax rate for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, of 29.0 percent differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0 percent primarily due to state income taxes and nondeductible components of per diem expenses. We recorded income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025, of $18.1 million compared to $7.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The $10.4 million increase in income tax expense is primarily driven by a $35.6 million increase in pretax income. Outlook The Company is maintaining its estimates for the year ending December 31, 2025. Net income is expected to be between $203.3 million and $214.3 million. Earnings per Share ('EPS') is expected to be between $3.70 and $3.90 per fully diluted share. Adjusted EPS is estimated in the range of $4.20 to $4.40, and Adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2025 is expected to range from $440 to $460 million. The Company is targeting SG&A expense as a percentage of revenue to be approximately six percent for the full year 2025. The Company's targeted gross margins by segment are as follows: Utilities in the range of 9 to 11 percent; Energy in the range of 10 to 12 percent. The Company expects its effective tax rate for 2025 to be similar to 2024 at approximately 29 percent, but it may vary depending on the mix of states in which the Company operates. Adjusted EPS and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. Please refer to 'Non-GAAP Measures' and Schedules below for the definitions and reconciliations. The guidance provided above constitutes forward-looking statements, which are based on current economic conditions and estimates, and the Company does not include other potential impacts, such as changes in accounting or unusual items.

Primoris uses earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization ('EBITDA'), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted EPS as important supplemental measures of the Company's operating performance. The Company believes these measures enable investors, analysts, and management to evaluate Primoris' performance excluding the effects of certain items that management believes impact the comparability of operating results between reporting periods. In addition, management believes these measures are useful in comparing the Company's operating results with those of its competitors. The non-GAAP measures presented in this press release are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, Primoris' method of calculating these measures may be different from methods used by other companies, and, accordingly, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures as calculated by other companies that do not use the same methodology as Primoris. Please see the accompanying tables to this press release for reconciliations of the following non‐GAAP financial measures for Primoris' current and historical results: EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS.

The Company defines Adjusted EPS as Adjusted Net Income divided by the diluted weighted average shares outstanding. Management believes these adjustments are helpful for comparing the Company's operating performance with prior periods.

Expand Schedule 2 Primoris Services Corporation Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (In Thousands) (Unaudited) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Primoris defines EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted for certain items including, (i) non‐cash stock‐based compensation expense; (ii) transaction/integration and related costs; (iii) asset impairment charges; (iv) severance and restructuring changes; (v) change in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities; and (vi) selected (gains) charges that are unusual or non-recurring. The Company believes the EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA financial measures assist in providing a more complete understanding of the Company's underlying operational measures to manage its business, to evaluate its performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace, and to establish operational goals. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non‐GAAP financial measures and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP.
