WATSONVILLE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Granite (NYSE: GVA) today announced results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.

Second Quarter 2026 Results

Net loss attributable to Granite totaled $278 million, or $(6.36) per diluted share, compared to net income attributable to Granite of $72 million, or $1.42 per diluted share, for the same period in the prior year. The net loss was driven by a $360 million non-operating loss on convertible debt transactions associated with our 3.75% convertible notes. As described in our June 2, 2026 Form 8-K, we elected to settle the conversions of the convertible notes primarily in cash in order to limit dilution to our stockholders. The related losses have been excluded from adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted net income attributable to Granite totaled $101 million, or $2.16 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net income attributable to Granite of $86 million, or $1.93 per diluted share, for the same period in the prior year.

• Revenue increased $330 million to $1.46 billion compared to $1.13 billion for the same period in the prior year.
• Gross profit increased $40 million to $239 million compared to $199 million for the same period in the prior year.
• Selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased $22 million to $108 million, or 7.4% of revenue, compared to $86 million, or 7.6% of revenue, for the same period in the prior year.
• Adjusted EBITDA increased $34 million to $186 million compared to $152 million for the same period in the prior year.

“We continued to execute against our strategy and deliver on our long-term financial objectives during the quarter,” said Kyle Larkin, Granite President and Chief Executive Officer. “Despite headwinds created by severe weather in the southeast, we generated strong organic revenue growth, increased adjusted EBITDA and operating cash flow, completed the acquisition of Kenny Seng Construction, and strengthened our capital structure by issuing senior notes and calling our 3.75% convertible notes for redemption.”

“We continue to believe public funding for highways, roads and bridges is likely to remain at high levels for the foreseeable future. In addition, we are confident in our ability to grow our business beyond traditional public infrastructure end markets. Over the last several years, we have been positioning Granite to expand our federal portfolio footprint, increase our participation in rail and transit projects, grow our presence in mission critical infrastructure including data center site development, and strengthen our vertically integrated Materials platform. Combined with our leading positions in many of the nation’s fastest growing markets, these initiatives provide Granite with multiple avenues to grow revenue, expand earnings, and create value independent of any single end market or funding source. As we look beyond 2027, our confidence is rooted not only in a supportive funding environment but also in our ability to grow through market diversification, customer expansion, strategic acquisitions, and disciplined execution. Our continued confidence in our ability to grow our business is based on the breadth of opportunities we see across our platform, the quality of the markets we serve, our ability to execute, and the strategic choices we have made over the last several years to build a more diversified, more vertically integrated and more resilient Granite.”

Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 Results

• Adjusted EBITDA increased $64 million to $244 million compared to $180 million for the same period in the prior year.
• Year-to-date operating cash flow increased to $142 million from $5 million for the same period in the prior year and we are raising our annual operating cash flow target from 10% to 11% of revenue.

Three and Six Months ended June 30, 2026 (Unaudited - dollars in thousands)

Revenue for the three and six month periods increased year-over-year, driven by higher CAP entering the quarter and year along with $98 million and $142 million, respectively, from our recently acquired businesses, Warren Paving, Papich Construction, and Kenny Seng Construction. Gross profit and gross profit margin for the quarter increased year-over-year as a result of the increase in revenue and improved execution across our project portfolio. For the six month period, gross profit margin decreased year-over-year primarily due to a reduction in the favorable impact of claim settlements.

CAP increased $250 million sequentially to $7.4 billion, an increase of $1.4 billion year-over-year. As of June 30, 2026, CAP included $624 million of tactical infrastructure projects for U.S. Customs and Border Protection that should be substantially realized over 2026 and 2027.

Revenue for the three and six month periods increased year-over-year primarily due to revenue from our recently acquired businesses, Warren Paving, Papich Construction, Cinderlite, and Kenny Seng Construction, of $60 million and $110 million, respectively. Gross profit margin and cash gross profit margin for the three and six month periods decreased year-over-year primarily due to the impact of severe weather in the southeast and higher production costs associated with quarry development activities in the current year.

Outlook

Our 2026 fiscal year guidance is unchanged with the exception of an increase in revenue as noted below:

• Revenue increased to a range of $5.3 billion to $5.5 billion from a range of $5.2 billion to $5.4 billion
• Adjusted EBITDA margin in a range of 12.25% to 13.25%
• SG&A expense as a percent of revenue in a range of 8.25% to 8.75% of revenue, inclusive of an estimated $48 million of stock-based compensation expense
• Effective tax rate for adjusted net income in the mid-20s
• Capital expenditures in a range of approximately $140 million to $160 million, including approximately $50 million in planned strategic materials investments.

“During the quarter, we delivered strong growth in both revenue and CAP,” said Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Staci Woolsey. “With our performance through the second quarter and opportunities ahead, we are raising our annual revenue guidance range by $100 million. Given the strength in both public and private infrastructure markets, we expect to deliver sustained elevated organic growth through the second half of 2026 and into 2027 and beyond.”

We do not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA margin or the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measure of net income attributable to Granite because we cannot predict with a reasonable degree of certainty and without unreasonable efforts certain components or excluded items that are inherently uncertain and depend on various factors. For these reasons, we are unable to assess the potential significance of the unavailable information.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

The tables below contain financial information calculated other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Specifically, we believe that non-GAAP financial measures such as EBITDA and EBITDA margin are useful in evaluating operating performance and are regularly used by securities analysts, institutional investors and other interested parties, and that such supplemental measures facilitate comparisons between companies that have different capital and financing structures and/or tax rates.

We are also providing adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP measures, to indicate the impact of stock-based compensation, loss on convertible debt transactions, net and other costs, net, which includes strategic acquisition and integration expenses, and in 2025 legal fees for the defense of a former company officer in his now resolved civil litigation with the Securities and Exchange Commission and reorganization costs.

We provide adjusted income before income taxes, adjusted provision for income taxes, adjusted net income attributable to Granite, adjusted diluted weighted average shares of common stock and adjusted diluted earnings per share attributable to common shareholders, non-GAAP measures, to indicate the impact of the following:

• Acquired intangible asset amortization and acquisition-related depreciation;
• Stock-based compensation;
• Loss on convertible debt transactions, net;
• Amortization of convertible debt discount; and
• Other costs, net as described above.

We also provide cash gross profit and cash gross profit per ton for the materials segment and product lines to exclude the impact of non-cash costs from gross profit. Non-cash costs include depreciation, depletion and amortization, and, starting in the first quarter of 2026, unrealized gains and losses from the change in fair value of commodity derivative instruments included in cost of revenue. Cash gross profit and cash gross profit per ton are presented to illustrate the operational performance generated by the assets of the materials segment and its product lines. In addition, we exclude barge delivery revenue from our calculation of average selling price per ton to improve comparability with prior periods. The acquisition of Warren Paving introduced barge delivery revenue starting in the third quarter of 2025.

We believe that these additional non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating operating performance, are regularly used by securities analysts, institutional investors and other interested parties, and facilitate comparisons to prior periods and between industry peer companies. Additionally, we use these non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating our performance. However, the reader is cautioned that any non-GAAP financial measures provided by us are provided in addition to, and not as alternatives for, our reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Items that may have a significant impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows must be considered when assessing our actual financial condition and performance regardless of whether these items are included in non-GAAP financial measures. The methods used by us to calculate non-GAAP financial measures may differ significantly from methods used by other companies to compute similar measures. As a result, any non-GAAP financial measures provided by us may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies.
