Stable Customer Base in Uncertain TimesStable Customer Base in Uncertain Times

• Regulated Utilities– Solid balance sheets backed by the

ability to recover costs through the regulatory process; capital projects are long-term (multi-decade) investments not subject to short-term economics

• U.S. Government– Spending expected to remain strong with

potential stimulus package; focus likely to remain on economy, military transformation, terrorism, and infrastructure improvements

• National or International Oil Companies– Large amounts of cash on hand; long-

term investment horizon; government backing

Approximately 82%, or $12B, of backlog is comprised of regulated utilities, national or international oil companies, and the U.S. Government, who provide

financial strength and stability, are expected to continue capital investments, and who should reduce the risk of project delays, payment defaults, or cancellations.
