Current report

On October 3, 2025, we completed the acquisition of Cinderlite Trucking Corporation (“Cinderlite”) for $58.5 million in cash, subject to customary closing adjustments. We purchased all of the outstanding equity interest of Cinderlite, which is a construction materials, landscape supply, and transportation company in Carson City, Nevada. This acquisition aligns with our strategy of enhancing our vertical integration by strengthening our existing home markets. The results of Cinderlite will be included in our consolidated results beginning in the fourth quarter of 2025 and are not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations.

Current report

Construction revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased by $81.8 million and $120.7 million, or 7.6% and 4.7%, respectively, when compared to 2024. These increases were primarily driven by $52.7 million of construction revenue from our recently acquired businesses, Warren Paving and Papich Construction, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. Additionally, D&B construction revenue increased by $4.0 million and $31.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, when compared to 2024. Our remaining Construction revenue increased year-over-year driven primarily by higher CAP entering the quarter and year.

Current report

Materials gross profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased by $35.9 million, or 111.4%, and $53.0 million, or 89.7%, respectively, when compared to 2024. The increased profit was primarily driven by higher volumes and sales prices in both aggregates and asphalt. The increase was also driven by gross profit from our recently acquired businesses, Warren Paving and Papich Construction, of $9.6 million for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, which included $2.2 million of purchase accounting-related charges such as step-up depreciation and intangible asset amortization. See Note 3 of “Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for further information about acquisitions.

Current report

As of September 30, 2025, one of the conditions permitting the holders of the 3.25% Convertible Notes to convert was met. Our common stock traded above 130% of the $77.88 conversion price for at least 20 trading days during the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on September 30, 2025 (the last trading day of the calendar quarter). The holders of the 3.25% Convertible Notes have the right to convert through December 31, 2025, at which point the Company will re-evaluate whether the 3.25% Convertible Notes will continue to be convertible in the subsequent calendar quarter. In the event the holders of the 3.25% Convertible Notes elect to convert a portion, or all of their 3.25% Convertible Notes, the principal amount is required to be settled in cash. As a result, the $373.8 million principal amount has been classified as a current liability as of September 30, 2025 in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Any conversion premium will be satisfied with cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election. At current market prices of our common stock, we do not expect holders to elect to convert their notes as the trading price of the notes in the secondary market exceeds the value a holder would receive upon conversion of such notes. In the unlikely event a holder elects to convert, we would use cash on hand or draw on our Revolver as needed.

Previous report

Construction revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 increased by $19.5 million and $38.9 million, or 2.1% and 2.6%, respectively, when compared to 2024. This increase was primarily driven by $17.1 million and $27.2 million of construction revenue from the recently acquired D&B business during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. Our remaining Construction revenue was consistent year-over-year as increases from new projects were largely offset by projects completed in the second half of the prior year. With increased CAP as of the end of the second quarter, compared to the same period in the prior year, we expect Construction revenue to accelerate in the second half of the year.

Previous report

Materials gross profit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 increased by $16.1 million, or 54.9%, and $17.0 million, or 63.6%, respectively, when compared to 2024. The increased profit was primarily driven by higher aggregates and asphalt volumes and higher aggregate sales prices.

Previous wording

Funding for our public work projects, which account for approximately 80% of our portfolio, is dependent on federal, state, regional and local revenues. At the federal level, the $1.2 trillion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (“IIJA”) has increased federal highway, bridge and transit funding to its highest level in more than six decades with $550 billion in incremental funding over five years. The increased multi-year spending commitment improved the programming visibility for state and local governments and drove an increase in project lettings that started in 2023, and has continued through 2025. With the IIJA ending in September of 2026, discussions are already underway in Congress concerning a replacement bill.

Previous wording

Over the last several years, inflation, supply chain and labor constraints have had a significant impact on the global economy including Granite and others in the construction industry in the United States. Recently, concerns over tariffs have been a major source of uncertainty in the economy. To date, we have not experienced a material financial impact due to tariffs. It is impossible to fully mitigate the potential impacts of the foregoing macro-economic factors and they may negatively impact us in the future. However, where practicable, we have applied proactive measures to mitigate these macro-economic factors, such as fixed forward purchase contracts of oil related inputs, energy surcharges, and adjustment of project schedules for constraints related to construction materials such as concrete.

Current wording

On October 1, 2025, the U.S. government shut down due to a failure to agree on funding for the new fiscal year.

Depending on the length of the shut down, our results of operations and/or financial condition could potentially be materially impacted.

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses include the costs for estimating and bidding, including offsetting customer reimbursements for portions of our selling/bid submission expenses (i.e., stipends), business development, materials facility permits, and costs related to our operational offices that are not allocated to direct contract costs and expenses related to our corporate functions. Other SG&A expenses include travel and entertainment, outside services, information technology, depreciation, occupancy, training, office supplies, changes in the fair market value of our non-qualified deferred compensation plan liability and other miscellaneous expenses. SG&A expenses can vary depending on the volume of projects in process and the number of employees assigned to estimating and bidding activities. As projects are completed or the volume of work slows down, we temporarily redeploy project employees to bid on new projects, moving their salaries and related costs from cost of revenue to selling expenses. SG&A expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2025 increased $15.8 million compared to the same period in 2024, primarily due to $6.0 million of higher salaries and related expenses due to increased labor costs and a $4.2 million increase in incentive compensation due to improved financial performance. SG&A expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 increased $43.8 million compared to the same period in 2024, primarily due to an $18.1 million increase in stock-based compensation due to improved financial performance, as well as $15.4 million of higher salaries and related expenses due to increased labor costs.
