*Item 8.01 Other Events.*

The Company believes the report issued on August 15, 2016 by Spruce Point Capital Management regarding AECOM’s financial reporting is inaccurate and misleading. The report begins with a disclaimer notifying readers that they should assume Spruce Point Capital Management and its related parties have a short position in AECOM stock and “therefore stand to realize significant gains in the event that the price of [AECOM] stock declines.”

AECOM’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP and any non-GAAP information is reconciled to its GAAP equivalent according to SEC reporting requirements. AECOM’s annual financial statements are audited by Ernst & Young LLP.
