CENTREVILLE, VA – February 23, 2022, Parsons Corporation (NYSE: PSN) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2021.
“We had a strong finish to the year and achieved our fourth quarter and full-year 2021 objectives as we delivered encouraging second half growth over the first half, maintained our hiring and retention momentum, won several large contract awards, and continued to be recognized for our long-standing commitment to ESG,” said Carey Smith, president and chief executive officer of Parsons.
“I am very excited about our future. Our portfolio is closely aligned to important macro trends, and we continue to differentiate ourselves and win new contracts through innovation. Our Critical Infrastructure segment is benefiting from increased spending on global infrastructure, including transportation, environmental remediation and water and wastewater treatment. At the same time, geopolitical tensions are escalating, and our Federal Solutions business is supporting our customers in critical areas of national security including cyber, space, missile defense and C5ISR. We expect our momentum will continue and we look forward to executing against our strategy and driving additional shareholder value in 2022 and beyond.”

Non-GAAP Financial Information
The tables under "Parsons Corporation Inc. Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures" present Adjusted Net Income attributable to Parsons Corporation, Adjusted Earnings per Share, Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (“EBITDA”), Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, reconciled to their most directly comparable GAAP measure. These financial measures are calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("Non-GAAP Measures"). Parsons has provided these Non-GAAP Measures to adjust for, among other things, the impact of amortization expenses related to our acquisitions, costs associated with a loss or gain on the disposal or sale of property, plant and equipment, restructuring and related expenses, costs associated with mergers and acquisitions, software implementation costs, legal and settlement costs, and other costs considered non-operational in nature. These items have been Adjusted because they are not considered core to the company’s business or otherwise not considered operational or because these charges are non-cash or non-recurring. The company presents these Non-GAAP Measures because management believes that they are meaningful to understanding Parsons’s performance during the periods presented and the company’s ongoing business. Non-GAAP Measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and therefore are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled metrics or the financial results of other companies. These Non-GAAP Measures should be considered a supplement to, not a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
|

Book-to-Bill ratio is calculated as total contract awards divided by total revenue for the period. |
