|We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters.

|We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Peter Kiewit Sons, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 30, 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in redeemable common stock and comprehensive income and excess of assets over liabilities, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 27, 2007, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.  Our report dated February 27, 2007 refers to a change to the method of accounting for redeemable common stock and stripping costs incurred during production in the mining industry.  In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 30, 2006, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

All other financial statements contained herein are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.  The Companys accounting policies and certain other disclosures are set forth in the notes to the consolidated financial statements contained in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K.  Management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

|The Companys redeemable common stock is the only class of stock that is issued and outstanding.  Ownership of the Companys redeemable common stock is generally restricted to directors of PKS and active employees of the Company and is conditioned upon the execution of repurchase agreements which restrict the transfer of the redeemable common stock.  The Company is obligated to purchase all redeemable common stock upon the death or termination of the employment of a stockholder at the formula price computed pursuant to PKS Restated Certificate of Incorporation.  Additionally, the redeemable common stock has no active market, can only be sold to the Company, and represents claims that have no priority over any other claims upon liquidation.

|The Company accounts for the redeemable common stock under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity, (SFAS 150).  Since the Company is obligated to purchase all redeemable common stock upon death or termination of a stockholders employment, it is considered mandatorily redeemable under SFAS 150.  SFAS 150 requires that mandatorily redeemable stock be recorded at formula value and presented as a liability on the balance sheet.  The formula value of the redeemable common stock is determined annually and is based on the book value of the Company.  Formula value equals total assets (excluding property, plant and equipment used in the Companys construction activities (Construction PP&E)), reduced by total liabilities (excluding the liability for redeemable common stock) and minority interest.  Any excess of assets over liabilities, which consists entirely of the net book value of the Construction PP&E (approximately $202 million and $176 million at June 30, 2007 and December 30, 2006, respectively), is presented as Excess of assets over liabilities including redeemable common stock.  Period to period changes in formula value represent an expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations captioned Earnings attributable to redeemable common stock.  Period to period changes in Construction PP&E are not attributable to redeemable common stock and therefore, represent Net income on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.  Since formula value of the redeemable common stock is based on the book value of the Company, the SFAS 150 earnings attributable to redeemable common stock offsets a substantial portion of current year earnings.  Furthermore, since SFAS 150 requires that mandatorily redeemable stock be excluded from earnings per share, the Company has not presented earnings per share.

|In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) released SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, (SFAS 157).  SFAS 157 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurement.  The changes to current practice relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements.  SFAS 157 is effective for the Company beginning with the 2008 fiscal year.  The Company is continuing to evaluate the impact of the adoption of SFAS 157.

|In February 2007, the FASB released SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial LiabilitiesIncluding an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115, (SFAS 159).  SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions.  SFAS 159 is effective for the Company beginning with the 2008 fiscal year.  The Company is continuing to evaluate the impact of the adoption of SFAS 159.

|On June 1, 2007, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding share capital of a Canadian construction corporation for approximately $58 million.  The operating results related to this acquisition have been included in the consolidated financial statements since that date.  The pro forma results relating to this acquisition were not material to the Companys operations. The acquisition occurred as part of the Companys plan to expand its construction business.  The Company is in the process of obtaining third-party valuations of the assets and liabilities acquired.  Any goodwill that is ultimately calculated will be considered nondeductible for Canadian tax purposes.

|The Company has entered into several foreign currency forward contracts as a strategy to offset the earnings impact of currency fluctuations upon future transactions.  The forward contracts are generally scheduled to mature as those future transactions occur.  The forward contracts have not been designated as hedging instruments under SFAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.  The forward contracts had outstanding notional amounts of $U.S. 128 million at June 30, 2007 and $U.S. 62 million at December 30, 2006.  The forward contracts offset the earnings impact caused by currency fluctuations of U.S. dollar denominated liabilities and expenses related to the completion of construction contracts by Canadian subsidiaries and anticipated Canadian currency needs.  The forward contracts are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value based upon quoted market prices.  Changes in the fair value of the forward contracts are immediately recognized in cost of revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

|The forward contracts mature monthly in varying amounts during 2007 and 2008 and will settle based upon the difference between the current exchange rate at the time of settlement and the exchange rates in the forward contracts.  At June 30, 2007 and December 30, 2006, the fair value of these forward contracts was a current liability of approximately $2 million and $3 million, respectively.  During both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006, the Company recognized gains of approximately $5 million and losses of approximately $3 million, respectively, on the forward contracts.

|Unrecognized tax benefits at the beginning of 2007 were $14 million (including $3 million of accrued interest and penalties), all of which would affect the effective tax rate if recognized.

|The Internal Revenue Service has completed routine examinations of the Companys filed tax returns through 2004.  Possible increases and / or decreases in the unrecognized tax benefit may be reflected within the next twelve months; however the Company currently believes that these changes would not materially affect the Companys financial position, future results of operations or future cash flows.

|Due to their competitive nature, the construction and coal mining industries experience lower margins than many other industries.  As a result, cost control is a primary focus of the Company.  The ability to control costs enables the Company to price more competitively and also to complete contracts profitably.  Further, since the formula value of the Companys redeemable common stock is based upon the Companys book value, formula value is primarily driven by the Companys ability to complete contracts profitably.  Consequently, the Company views both margin as a percentage of revenue and general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue as key measures of operating results.

|Total construction revenue increased $146 million or 12% from the same period in 2006, as the Companys revenue growth mirrored increases in backlog.  Increases in revenue from the second quarter of 2006 to the second quarter of 2007 include numerous construction projects spanning various markets including power/heat/cooling ($70 million), commercial building ($55 million), transportation ($53 million) and sewage and solid waste disposal ($15 million).  These increases were partially offset by a decrease in water supply/dams ($32 million) and petroleum ($31 million).  Given the non-recurring nature of construction projects, the mix and volume of construction projects by market often varies from period to period.

|Total construction margin increased $27 million or 19% from the same period in 2006.  The increased margin is attributable to increases on numerous construction projects spanning various markets including transportation ($54 million) and commercial building ($7 million) and an increase in claims margin ($16 million).  The increase in transportation was attributable to the favorable resolution of technical challenges related to construction and change order and cost issues with owners on three large projects that are nearing completion.  These increases were partially offset by decreases in petroleum ($14 million) and an increase in losses of $36 million on a mineral processing facility project located in Alberta, Canada.  As the design and construction of this mineral processing facility project has progressed, significant changes in project specifications have been identified which have caused large schedule and cost impacts in several areas.  The Company has submitted a claim to the owner of this project, however, under the Companys revenue recognition policy, no revenue will be recognized from this claim until it is signed by the owner.  Given the non-recurring nature of construction projects, the mix and volume of construction projects by market often varies from period to period.

|Construction margin as a percentage of construction revenue increased to 13% from 12% for the same period in 2006.

|The Company measures income tax expense for interim periods by calculating an estimated annual effective tax rate for the applicable period.  The estimated effective income tax rates applied to operations for the three month periods ended June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006 were 36% and 38%, respectively.  These rates differ from the federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to state income taxes, offset in part by the deduction for domestic production activities, tax exempt interest income and percentage depletion.

|As described in Note 2, Redeemable Common Stock, the Company accounts for redeemable common stock under the provisions of SFAS 150.  SFAS 150 requires that redeemable common stock be recorded as a liability at formula value and that changes in formula value be recorded as an expense on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.  That expense, captioned Earnings attributable to redeemable common stock represents the portion of earnings for the period that, at the next annual determination, will increase formula value.

|Total construction revenue increased $227 million or 11% from the same period in 2006.  Increases in revenue include numerous construction projects spanning various markets including power/heat/cooling ($110 million), commercial building ($79 million), transportation ($66 million) and sewage and solid waste disposal ($32 million).  Offsetting these increases was a decrease in petroleum ($71 million).  Given the non-recurring nature of construction projects, the mix and volume of construction projects by market often varies from period to period.

|Total construction margin increased $57 million or 25% from the same period in 2006. The increased margin is attributable to increases on numerous construction projects spanning various markets including transportation ($79 million), mining ($19 million), commercial buildings ($9 million) and sewage and solid waste disposal ($5 million).  The increase in transportation was attributable to the favorable resolution of technical challenges related to construction and change order and cost issues with owners on three large projects that are nearing completion. Offsetting the increases were decreases in margin on numerous construction projects spanning various markets including petroleum ($14 million) and an increase in losses of approximately $48 million on a mineral processing facility project located in Alberta, Canada.  As the design and construction of this mineral processing facility project has progressed, significant changes in project specifications have been identified which have caused large schedule and cost impacts in several areas.  The Company has submitted a claim to the owner of this project, however, under the Companys revenue recognition policy, no revenue will be recognized from this claim until it is signed by the owner.  Given the non-recurring nature of construction projects, the mix and volume of construction projects by market often varies from period to period.

|Construction margin as a percentage of construction revenue increased to 12% from 11% for the same period in 2006, primarily due to the increased claim margin in 2007.  The increase is also driven by the increases in transportation margins partially offset by losses on the mineral processing facility.

|The Company measures income tax expense for interim periods by calculating an estimated annual effective tax rate for the applicable period.  The estimated effective income tax rates applied to operations for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006 were 36% and 38% respectively.  These rates differ from the federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to state income taxes, offset in part, by the deduction for domestic production activities, tax exempt interest income and percentage depletion.

|As described in Note 2, Redeemable Common Stock, the Company accounts for redeemable common stock under the provisions of SFAS 150.  SFAS 150 requires that redeemable common stock be recorded as a liability at formula value and that changes in formula value be recorded as an expense on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.  That expense, captioned Earnings attributable to redeemable common stock represents the portion of earnings for the period that, at the next annual determination, will increase formula value.

|Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $106 million.  This amount is a net decrease of $31 million from $137 million provided by operating activities in 2006.  The net decrease is primarily attributable cash collected in advance of construction activities in the prior year in accordance with contractual provisions.  Cash provided or used by operating activities is affected to a large degree by the mix, timing, stage of completion and terms of individual contracts which are reflected in changes through current assets and liabilities.

|Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $123 million, a net change of $51 million from the 2006 net cash used in investing activities of $72 million.  The change was primarily due to net cash paid for acquisition of $46 million and decreased net proceeds from available-for-sale securities of $16 million partially offset by decreased capital expenditures of $10 million.

|Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2007 decreased by $13 million to $111 million as compared to $124 million in the same time period in 2006.

|During the six months ended June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006, the Company expended $144 million and $108 million, respectively, on capital expenditures and an acquisition.  The Company anticipates that its future cash requirements for capital expenditures to trend consistently with backlog and revenue increases and acquisitions will continue to depend largely on market conditions.  Cash generated by joint ventures, while readily available, is generally not distributed to partners until the liabilities and commitments of the joint ventures have been substantially satisfied.  Other long-term liquidity uses include the payment of income taxes, long-term debt and dividends.  In July of 2007, the Company finalized an acquisition totaling approximately $34 million.  As of June 30, 2007, the Company had no other material firm binding purchase commitments related to its investments other than meeting the normal course of business needs of its construction joint ventures.  The current portion of long-term debt is $14 million.  The Company paid dividends during the six months ended June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006 of $35 million and $30 million, respectively.  The Company also has the commitment to repurchase its redeemable common stock at any time during the year from shareholders.

|The Company has entered into several foreign currency forward contracts as a strategy to offset the earnings impact of currency fluctuations upon future transactions.  The forward contracts are generally scheduled to mature as those future transactions occur.  The forward contracts have not been designated as hedging instruments under SFAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,(SFAS 133).  The forward contracts had outstanding notional amounts of $U.S. 128 million at June 30, 2007 and $U.S. 62 million at December 30, 2006.  The forward contracts offset the earnings impact caused by currency fluctuations of U.S. dollar denominated liabilities and expenses related to the completion of construction contracts by Canadian subsidiaries and anticipated Canadian currency needs.  The forward contracts are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value based upon quoted market prices.  Changes in the fair value of the forward contracts are immediately recognized in cost of revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

|The forward contracts mature monthly in varying amounts during 2007 and 2008 and will settle based upon the difference between the current exchange rate at the time of settlement and the exchange rates in the forward contracts.  At June 30, 2007 and December 30, 2006, the fair value of these forward contracts was a current liability of approximately $2 million and $3 million, respectively.  During the six month periods ended June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006, the Company recognized gains of approximately $5 million and losses of approximately $3 million, respectively, on the forward contracts.  A 10% change in the Canadian / U.S. exchange rate would result in a gain of approximately $14 million in the event of an increase in the exchange rate, or a loss of approximately $14 million in the event of a decrease.
