​

Houston, TX — February 25, 2021 — Comfort Systems USA, Inc. (NYSE: FIX) today reported results for the fourth quarter and annual period ended December 31, 2020.

​

For the quarter ended December 31, 2020, net income was $42.8 million, or $1.17 per diluted share, as compared to $34.1 million, or $0.92 per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2019.

The Company reported operating cash flow of $70.1 million in the current quarter compared to $42.3 million in 2019.

​

Backlog as of December 31, 2020 was $1.51 billion as compared to $1.43 billion as of September 30, 2020 and $1.60 billion as of December 31, 2019. On a sequential basis, our same-store backlog increased from $1.43 billion as of September 30, 2020 to $1.44 billion as of December 31, 2020. On a same-store basis, backlog decreased from $1.60 billion as of December 31, 2019 to $1.23 billion as of December 31, 2020.

​

​

Brian Lane, Comfort Systems USA’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Thanks to the commitment and resilience of our people, we were able to overcome unprecedented challenges during 2020, and we are delighted to report record earnings and cash flow. We are deeply grateful for the courage and perseverance that our field employees continue to demonstrate as essential workers during the pandemic.”

​

Mr. Lane continued, “Our backlog strengthened slightly this quarter, but it continues to reflect some delays in bookings that are likely to result in modest headwinds in same-store revenue in 2021, particularly during the first half of the year. We are encouraged to report good ongoing bidding activity, and we currently foresee that our service operations will enter 2021 with pre-pandemic volumes and profitability.”

​

Mr. Lane concluded, “Although we continue to expect sporadic air pockets resulting from delays in project bookings and starts, we are increasingly optimistic about 2021. We currently anticipate our full-year 2021 results are likely to be similar to, but somewhat lower than, the record results that we achieved in 2020. We continue to prepare for a wide range of potential circumstances in nonresidential construction in the coming quarters; however, we now expect good overall trends, especially in our industrial, technology and manufacturing markets, and we also feel that we are geographically concentrated in markets with comparatively strong prospects. We look forward to 2021, and we are confident that we can achieve solid profitability and cash flow during the coming year.”
