What Fluor does

Fluor Corporation (NYSE: FLR), founded in 1912 and headquartered in Irving, Texas, is one of the world's largest publicly traded engineering, procurement, fabrication, construction, and maintenance (EPC/EPCM) firms, with nearly 27,000 employees across more than 60 global locations. The company operates through three reporting segments: Energy Solutions (LNG, refining, petrochemicals, carbon capture, hydrogen, nuclear SMRs), Urban Solutions (infrastructure, mining, metals, advanced technologies, manufacturing, life sciences, data centers, and the TRS Staffing Solutions professional workforce subsidiary), and Mission Solutions (U.S. and allied government work in national security, nuclear technology, decommissioning, and emergency response). Service delivery is anchored by proprietary platforms and technologies including MasterPlant (with Coreworx for project collaboration and document management), OptimEyes (project performance monitoring), FOCUS (execution control), Knowledge OnLine (internal knowledge management), QuickPlant (modular fabrication), and process technologies such as Econamine / Econamine FG / Econamine FG Plus for post-combustion carbon capture, Fluor Solvent and FLEXSORB for acid gas removal, and Fluor SOx Technology for emissions reduction.

Fluor's revenue model is project-based: it secures contracts through competitive bids, sole-source negotiations, and long-term enterprise relationships across energy, chemicals, mining, infrastructure, and government clients. Contracts are recognized over time under the percentage-of-completion method and are structured as either fixed-price or reimbursable, with the company having deliberately shifted roughly 82% of its $25.5 billion backlog to reimbursable terms to reduce margin volatility. Recent multi-billion-dollar commitments include LNG Canada Phase 2 (JGC JV), TCO Future Growth Project in Kazakhstan, Centrus Energy uranium enrichment expansion, X-energy Xe-100 SMRs at Dow's Seadrift site, RoPower SMR deployment in Romania, the TeraWulf 480 MW data center, the America First Refining Brownsville refinery, Anglo American's Woodsmith polyhalite mine, and U.S. DOE Hanford and Naval Nuclear Laboratory work. Following the April 2025/2026 full divestiture of its NuScale Power stake for $2.43 billion in gross proceeds (a 326% return on a $570 million 2011 investment), Fluor has redeployed capital into $754 million of 2025 buybacks, a $1.4 billion 2026 repurchase program, and debt reduction, while activist investor Starboard Value took a nearly 5% stake in October 2025.

Revenue model

1. EPC Project Revenue: Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) contracts for large-scale capital projects. Revenue is recognized over time as projects are executed, based on the percentage-of-completion method. Contracts may be fixed-price or reimbursable (cost-plus). Fluor has been shifting its portfolio toward more predictable reimbursable contract terms, with approximately 82% of its $25.5 billion backlog on reimbursable terms as of 2025.
2. Government Services: Mission Solutions segment provides services to U.S. government and select international governments, including nuclear technology, national security, and emergency response. Includes long-term contracts with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and other agencies, as well as decommissioning and environmental remediation services.
3. Professional Staffing (TRS Staffing Solutions): Professional and craft staffing services through TRS Staffing Solutions subsidiary, providing recruitment and workforce solutions to clients across industries.
4. Share Repurchases: Fluor is using proceeds from the $2.43 billion NuScale Power stake divestiture to fund aggressive share repurchases targeting $1.4 billion in 2026, alongside debt reduction and strategic reinvestment.
