"With our fourth quarter results, we achieved another record year for Granite," said Kyle Larkin, Granite President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our disciplined approach to project selection, combined with sustained strength in public‑market funding, drove CAP to an all‑time high. With record CAP entering 2026 and continued momentum in the market, we believe we are positioned to achieve our 2027 targets for both organic growth and margin expansion.

Our materials business was a standout contributor in 2025, delivering significant margin expansion and revenue growth as recent investments begin to scale. The pace of improvement from this team has been remarkable, and we see a long runway for further value creation through pricing, operational efficiencies, and vertical integration with our construction operations.

In 2025, we also leveraged our free cash flow and strong balance sheet to expand our geographic footprint with strategic acquisitions. Our acquisition pipeline remains robust, and we expect to acquire additional businesses in 2026 that will strengthen our vertically-integrated platform.

We are operating from a position of strength, and I am confident our teams will continue to execute at a high level and deliver long‑term value for our shareholders in 2026 and beyond."

Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2025 Segment Results (Unaudited - dollars in thousands)

Construction revenue increased 14.5% and 7.0% year-over-year in the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, respectively. The revenue increase was driven by a strong market environment, increased CAP and revenue from acquired companies. Construction gross profit increased in both the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, respectively, due to higher revenue and improved execution across our higher quality project portfolio.

CAP totaled $7.0 billion, an increase of $0.6 billion sequentially and an increase of $1.7 billion year-over-year. During the quarter, several significant public projects were added to CAP with bidding activity remaining robust.

Materials revenue, gross profit and cash gross profit for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, respectively, increased compared to the same periods in the prior year, driven primarily by acquired businesses and higher asphalt and aggregate prices.

Outlook

Our guidance for 2026 is described below:

• Revenue in the range of $4.9 billion to $5.1 billion
• Adjusted EBITDA margin in the range of 12.0% to 13.0%
• SG&A expense in the range of 8.5% to 9.0% of revenue, inclusive of an estimated $48 million of stock-based compensation expense
• Mid-20s effective tax rate for adjusted net income
• Capital expenditures of approximately $140 million to $160 million, including approximately $50 million in planned strategic materials investments.

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.

"We expect our top-line momentum to continue in 2026 driven by organic growth as we work through our record CAP and a full-year of contribution from our 2025 acquisitions," said Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Staci Woolsey. "With a healthy market backdrop and a solid pipeline of bidding opportunities, we believe we are well positioned to continue expanding CAP in 2026. We also expect to improve gross profit margins and SG&A efficiencies as we work to drive adjusted EBITDA margin growth in line with our 2027 financial targets. Finally, we intend to continue investing in the business through acquisitions and capital expenditures in order to drive long-term shareholder value."

Some of these expectations may be based on beliefs, assumptions or estimates that may prove to be incorrect.

Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in greater detail in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, particularly those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.

Due to the inherent risks and uncertainties associated with our forward-looking statements, the reader is cautioned not to place undue reliance on them.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

The tables below contain financial information calculated other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Specifically, management believes 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 expense, loss on debt extinguishment in 2024 and other costs, net, which include legal fees for the defense of a former company officer in his civil litigation with the Securities and Exchange Commission, reorganization costs, strategic acquisition and integration expenses and, in 2024, non-cash impairment charges.

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:

• Other costs, net as described above;
• Acquired intangible asset amortization and acquisition-related depreciation;
• Stock-based compensation expense; and
• Loss on debt extinguishment.

We also provide Materials segment cash gross profit, Materials segment cash gross profit and cash gross profit per ton by product line and the related margins to exclude the impact of the segment's and product line's depreciation, depletion and amortization from the segment's and product line's gross profit. To better illustrate the operational performance generated by the assets of the Materials segment, and its product lines, our calculation adds back all depreciation, depletion and amortization to the Materials segment and its product lines and does not eliminate any in consolidation. 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. Management believes that non-GAAP financial measures such as Materials segment cash gross profit and Materials segment cash gross profit by product line and the related margins, cash gross profit per ton and average selling price per ton 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 to prior periods and between companies that have different capital and financing structures.

Management believes that these additional non-GAAP financial measures facilitate comparisons between industry peer companies, and management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating 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.
