Primoris Services Corporation Announces Underground Award Valued Over $225 Million


DALLAS, Dec. 31, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Primoris Services Corporation (NASDAQ Global Select: PRIM) (“Primoris” or “Company”) today announced a Master Service Agreement (“MSA”) with a major utility customer with an anticipated three-year value of approximately $225 million.  The contract was secured by ARB Underground, part of the Utilities and Distribution segment.

  • The MSA is a renewal of an existing Pipeline Safety Enhancement Program (PSEP) agreement in Southern California. The MSA is for construction services for pipeline and valve replacements and for pressure testing services throughout the utility’s entire service territory for the next three years. 
  • Primoris estimates that the expected annual revenue from this contract is $75 million per year over the course of the contract.  While the agreement does not obligate the customer to award Primoris a specific dollar amount, our discussions with the customer and our history with similar clients form the basis for our anticipated value.
  • The MSA is guaranteed for three years, after which there is an option for two additional one-year extensions, which would increase the anticipated MSA value to $375 million over five years.
