While we have taken steps to mitigate persistent and continuously evolving cyber security threats by implementing network security and internal control measures, implementing policies and procedures for managing risk to our information systems, periodically testing our information technology systems, and conducting employee training on cyber security, a system or network failure or data security breach could disrupt our business or the delivery of services to our customers, result in potential liabilities, the termination of contracts, divert the attention of management from effectively operating our business, cause significant reputational damage, or otherwise have an adverse effect on our financial results.
Demand for power projects, underground pipelines or highway projects could be affected by significant changes in weather, or climate conditions, or by regulatory changes relating to climate change, which could in turn reduce demand for our services. Our results could be adversely affected by natural disasters, public health crises, political crises, or other catastrophic events. Natural disasters, such as hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, earthquakes, and other adverse weather and climate conditions; public health crises, such as pandemics and epidemics; political crises, such as terrorist attacks, war, labor unrest, and other political instability; or other catastrophic events could disrupt our operations, or the operations of one or more of our vendors or customers, and could adversely affect our financial results.

If additional funds were not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to make future investments, take advantage of acquisitions or pursue other opportunities. Risks Related Primarily to the Financial Accounting of our Business Our financial results are based upon estimates and assumptions that may differ from actual results. In preparing our consolidated annual and quarterly financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, many estimates and assumptions are used in determining the reported revenue, costs and expenses recognized during the periods presented, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date of the financial statements.
In addition, the terms of any financing agreement we enter into may require us to agree to covenants that limit or restrict our operational and financial flexibility.

For projects for which a loss is expected, future revenue will be recorded with no margin, which may reduce the overall margin percentage for work performed. Our actual cost may be greater than expected in performing our contracts causing us to realize significantly lower profit or losses on our projects. We currently generate, and expect to continue to generate, a substantial portion of our revenue from fixed price and unit price contracts.

We do not obtain contracts from all of our bids and our inability to win bids at acceptable profit margins would adversely affect our business.

Our backlog is subject to cancellation and unexpected adjustments and, therefore, is not necessarily an accurate representation of future operating results. ​ Backlog is measured and defined differently by companies within our industry.
Added
In addition, many of our MSAs are subject to renewal, and these potential renewals can be considered in estimating MSA Backlog. We do not include certain contracts in the calculation of fixed backlog where scope, and therefore contract value, is not adequately defined.

Additionally, some revenue may never be included in backlog if it is awarded and completed in the same quarter.
