Executive Management Comments
Roger Argus, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We delivered a strong third quarter with growth primarily driven by U.S. federal and international end markets, both increasing at a double-digit rate. We received significant new orders during the quarter, including commercial orders for data center and sediment restoration projects, driving our backlog up by more than $200 million. The Company’s performance year-to-date resulted in our increasing guidance for fiscal 2026.”
Steve Burdick, Chief Financial Officer, stated, “Tetra Tech generated its strongest cash flow on record with $467 million from operations through the first three quarters of fiscal 2026. Our ability to consistently generate more cash than net income has allowed the Company to fund acquisitions, increase the stock buybacks, and pay higher dividends, while still deleveraging our net debt.”
Quarterly Dividend and Share Repurchase Program
On July 27, 2026, Tetra Tech’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend in the amount of $0.072 per share, an 11% increase year-over-year, payable on August 27, 2026, to stockholders of record as of August 13, 2026. This is the 45th consecutive double-digit increase in the Company’s quarterly dividend. In the third quarter of fiscal 2026, Tetra Tech repurchased $100 million of common stock. Additionally, as of June 28, 2026, the Company had $398 million remaining under its share repurchase program.
Nine-Month Results
Revenue for the nine-month period was $3.74 billion and net revenue was $3.20 billion. Net revenue increased 8% Y/Y excluding USAID / DOS and episodic disaster response. Operating income was $430 million, adjusted EBITDA was $466 million, and EPS was $1.18; cash flows generated from operations were $467 million.

| 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 adjustments in our guidance for EPS are to exclude the gain on business disposition and contingent consideration in the first nine months of fiscal 2026. |

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 in this release.
