 encourage candor from our employees, which we believe helps us to succeed and drive operational excellence. We believe that operating with 
 purpose, passion and creativity benefits our clients, stakeholders and employees as well as the communities where we operate.                                                                                    |

We are a people business                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                
 that depends on attracting and retaining high quality employees to continue our growth. To ensure we can attract and develop the best employees, we have partnered with trade unions to develop apprenticeship programs for craftsmen and technicians and                                                                                                                             
 with universities to create internship and co-op opportunities for engineering students. In 2024, approximately 1,000 apprentices and 185 engineering students gained on-the-job training experience and exposure to our company through our apprenticeship and internship programs. These programs allow us to identify future talent early, as well as expose prospective employees 
 to our company and culture in a more comprehensive manner than is possible through a traditional recruiting process. We also seek to build leadership skills in our existing employees through our Leadership Development Program, which includes                                                                                                                                     
 leadership summits and training sessions to enhance skills and foster discussions of best practices across the organization.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |

 history of acquiring and integrating businesses to expand our service offerings and geographic footprint. We have a dedicated team of corporate development professionals who focus on identifying privately owned businesses that are undergoing         
 generational transitions or seeking additional opportunities and resources. Our experience is that these companies are often interested in selling to us specifically because of our collaborative culture, history of innovative projects and reputation 
 with key clients. We have completed approximately 20 acquisitions since December 2020, the majority of which had purchase prices of less than $50 million and were acquired in a bilateral process rather than through a competitive auction. We          
 appoint a dedicated integration project manager and follow an integration “playbook” for every acquisition we make that includes predefined                                                                                                               |

 Bel-Aire, which we acquired in August and October 2021, respectively, generated compound annual growth rates in revenues of 17% and 43% from 2021 to 2024, respectively, after giving pro forma effect to 
 acquisitions such businesses made over that period. We believe by applying a consistent playbook to
