“Matrix has continued to strengthen its market position as a leading contractor for terminal and storage work as evidenced by the strong performance in the Storage Solutions segment,” said John R. Hewitt, President and Chief Executive Officer. “As a result of challenges in the Industrial and Electrical Infrastructure segments, we have made a series of strategic changes that we believe are necessary for our business over the long term. These organisational changes in our iron and steel, and power delivery businesses include talent enhancements as well as overhead and capital expenditure reductions. These actions will lead to improved operating performance across the organisation as we continue to position the company to maximise shareholder value.”
