Certain statements and information in this press release may constitute forward-looking statements regarding our future business expectations, which are subject to applicable securities laws and regulations. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “intend,” “foresee,” “should,” “would,” “could,” or other similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, which are generally not historic in nature. These forward-looking statements are based on the current expectations and beliefs of Comfort Systems USA, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) concerning future developments and their effect on the Company. While the Company’s management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made, there can be no assurance that future developments affecting the Company will be those that it anticipates, and the Company’s actual results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and the development of the industry in which the Company operates, may differ materially from those made in or suggested by the forward-looking statements contained in this press release.
In addition, even if our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and the development of the industry in which we operate, are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this press release, those results or developments may not be indicative of our results or developments in subsequent periods.

The Company’s forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties (some of which are beyond the Company’s control) and assumptions that could cause actual future results to differ materially from the Company’s historical experience and its present expectations or projections.
Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: the use of incorrect estimates for bidding a fixed-price contract; undertaking contractual commitments that exceed the Company’s labor resources; failing to perform contractual obligations efficiently enough to maintain profitability; national or regional weakness in construction activity and economic conditions; economic downturns in the markets where the Company operates; shortages of labor and specialty building materials or material increases to the cost thereof; financial difficulties affecting projects, vendors, customers, or subcontractors; unexpected adjustments or cancellations in our backlog resulting in the Company’s backlog failing to translate into actual revenue or profits; inflation, supply chain disruptions, and capital market volatility; the loss of significant customers; intense competition in the Company’s industry; risks associated with acquisitions, including the ability to successfully integrate those companies; impairment charges for goodwill and intangible assets; reductions or reversals of previously recorded revenue or profits as a result of the Company’s cost-to-cost input method of accounting; difficulties in the financial and surety markets; delays and/or defaults in customer payments; difficult work environment; worldwide political and economic uncertainties, including international conflicts and epidemics or pandemics; attraction and retention of key management and employees; the Company’s decentralized management structure; our ability to effectively manage our backlog and the size and cost of our operations; failure of third party subcontractors and suppliers to complete work as anticipated; difficulty in obtaining, or increased costs associated with, bonding and insurance; our ability to remain in compliance with covenants under our credit agreement, service our indebtedness, or fund our other liquidity needs; our inability to properly utilize our workforce; increases and uncertainty in insurance costs; regulatory and legal risks, including adverse litigation results, failure to comply with laws and regulations; changes in United States trade policy, and tax-related risks; the imposition of past and future liability from environmental, safety, and health regulations including the inherent risk associated with self-insurance; an increase in our
effective tax rate; a material information technology failure or a material cybersecurity breach; risks related to our common stock; failure or circumvention of our disclosure controls and procedures or internal control environment; our ability to manage growth and geographically-dispersed operations; severe weather conditions (such as storms, droughts, extreme heat or cold, wildfires and floods), including as a result of climate change, and any resulting regulations or restrictions related thereto; force majeure events; deliberate, malicious acts, including terrorism and sabotage; findings of inadequate internal controls; changes in accounting rules and regulations; and other risks detailed in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Note: The Company defines adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) as net income, provision for income taxes, other expense (income), net, changes in the fair value of contingent earn-out obligations, interest income, net, gain on sale of assets, goodwill impairment, other one-time expenses or gains and depreciation and amortization. Other companies may define Adjusted EBITDA differently. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because it is a financial measure that is frequently requested by third parties. However, Adjusted EBITDA is not considered under generally accepted accounting principles as a primary measure of an entity’s financial results, and accordingly, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to operating income, net income, or cash flows as determined under generally accepted accounting principles and as reported by the Company.

Underlines use the same word lists the scores use. AI, recession and tariffs follow Palanor’s word counter, so those counts match it exactly on the same text. Layoffs and buybacks use the terms the model was given. The model’s count is an estimate by meaning, not by string, so it can differ from the underlines.
