This represents an increase of 25% over net income of $54 million for the same period last year and an increase of 21% over diluted earnings per share of 48 cents for the same period last year.<\/p>\n<p>Fourth-quarter revenue was $1.8 billion, a 12% increase from the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009. AECOM&#8217;s gross revenue includes a significant amount of pass-through costs and, therefore, the company believes that revenue, net of other direct costs, which is a non-GAAP measure, also provides a valuable perspective on its business results. Fourth-quarter revenue, net of other direct costs, was $1.1 billion, representing a 14% increase over the same period last year. Organic revenue, net of other direct costs, for the fourth quarter increased 3.8% year over year.<\/p>\n<p>For the full fiscal year 2010, AECOM reported net income from continuing operations of $237 million and diluted EPS from continuing operations of $2.05. This represents an increase of 27% over net income of $187 million for the same period last year and an increase of 21% over diluted EPS of $1.70 for the same period last year.<\/p>\n<p>For fiscal year 2010, the company&#8217;s revenue, net of other direct costs, increased 10% to $4.2 billion, while gross revenue for fiscal year 2010 was $6.5 billion &#8211; 7% higher than fiscal year 2009.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;2010 was a year of many noteworthy achievements for AECOM,&#8221; said John M. Dionisio, AECOM president and chief executive officer. &#8220;We furthered our strategy of diversification with the completion of five strategic acquisitions, and we continued to win work on the most prestigious projects around the world.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;During the fourth quarter, we won more than $2 billion in new work across our geographies and end markets,&#8221; Dionisio said. &#8220;We are poised for continued forward momentum in 2011 and beyond with our balanced business model, global platform of integrated services and focus on high growth end markets and geographies.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b><span class=\"bwuline\">Business Segments<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p>In addition to providing consolidated financial results, AECOM reports separate financial information for its two segments: Professional Technical Services (PTS) and Management Support Services (MSS).<\/p>\n<p><b><span class=\"bwuline\">Professional Technical Services<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p>The PTS segment delivers planning, consulting, architecture and engineering design, and program and construction management services to institutional, commercial and government clients worldwide.<\/p>\n<p>For the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010, the PTS segment reported revenue of $1.5 billion and operating income of $120 million.
