Financial Analyst

Granite Construction's Q2 2024 results demonstrate robust financial performance and strategic growth. The 20% year-over-year revenue increase to $1.1 billion and adjusted diluted EPS of $1.73 significantly outpace the previous year's figures. This growth is primarily driven by strong performance in both Construction and Materials segments, with 22% and 10% year-over-year increases respectively.

The company's improved profitability is evident in the gross profit increase of $62 million to $165 million. The efficiency in operations is reflected in the reduced SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenue, dropping from 7.2% to 6.5%. The Adjusted EBITDA of $130 million, up from $81 million, further underscores the company's enhanced operational efficiency.

The sequential increase in Committed and Awarded Projects (CAP) by $77 million to $5.6 billion indicates a strong pipeline and positive market conditions. This, coupled with management's expectation of revenue in the upper half of the $3.9 billion to $4.0 billion range for the year, suggests continued growth momentum.

The announced acquisition of Dickerson & Bowen, Inc. aligns with Granite's strategic expansion in the materials-focused, vertically integrated business. This move is likely to strengthen the company's market position in the high-growth Mississippi region and potentially contribute to future revenue growth and margin expansion.

Overall, Granite's Q2 results and strategic initiatives paint a picture of a company on a solid growth trajectory, with improving profitability and a strong market position.

Market Research Analyst

Granite Construction's Q2 results and acquisition announcement reflect broader trends in the construction and infrastructure sectors. The 20% revenue growth outpaces the industry average, indicating Granite's strong market position and effective execution of its growth strategy.

The increase in Committed and Awarded Projects (CAP) to $5.6 billion suggests a robust demand environment, likely fueled by increased infrastructure spending and a resilient construction market. This aligns with the broader industry trend of sustained demand for construction and materials services, particularly in the public sector.

The acquisition of Dickerson & Bowen is a strategic move that capitalizes on the consolidation trend in the construction materials industry. By expanding its footprint in Mississippi, Granite is positioning itself to benefit from the region's high growth potential and increasing infrastructure investments.

The company's improved profitability metrics, including the increase in gross profit margin and reduction in SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenue, indicate effective cost management and operational efficiency. This is particularly noteworthy given the inflationary pressures and supply chain challenges that have affected the industry.

Looking ahead, Granite's narrowed revenue guidance suggests confidence in its near-term outlook. However, investors should monitor potential headwinds such as labor shortages, material cost fluctuations and any shifts in public infrastructure spending policies that could impact the company's performance in the coming quarters.

We earned record second quarter revenue, with an increase of 20% year-over-year, and also added to our CAP. This illustrates the strength of the macro construction market, and we believe there are many opportunities for us to build CAP further in the second half of the year.

Three and Six Months ended June 30, 2024 (Unaudited - dollars in thousands)

Construction Segment
	Three Months Ended June 30,															Six Months Ended June 30,
		2024				2023			Change								2024				2023			Change
Revenue	$	917,954			$	749,413			$	168,541			22.5	%		$	1,513,167			$	1,252,829			$	260,338			20.8	%

Gross profit as a percent of revenue		14.7	%			10.6	%										12.7	%			9.2	%

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, revenue increased year-over-year due to higher levels of CAP, more favorable weather conditions early in 2024, and revenue from acquired businesses. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, gross profit increased year-over-year as a result of increases in revenue and a decrease in negative revisions in estimates.

CAP increased $77 million sequentially to $5.6 billion and increased $139 million year-over-year. Both public and private markets continue to be strong with substantial opportunities to build CAP in the remainder of 2024.

		2024				2023			Change								2024				2023			Change

(1)

Materials segment cash gross profit and cash gross profit as a percent of revenue are non-GAAP measures. Please refer to the description and reconciliation of non-GAAP measures in the attached tables.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, revenue increased year-over-year by $15 million and $36 million, respectively, driven by revenue from acquired businesses as well as higher asphalt and aggregate sales prices, which offset decreased volumes. Gross profit in the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, increased due primarily to inclusion of the results of acquired businesses and higher materials sales prices. The impact to gross profit for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2024 from purchase accounting-related step-up depreciation and intangible asset amortization was $1 million and $3 million, respectively. Materials segment cash gross profit (1), which excludes the segment’s depreciation, depletion, and amortization, increased significantly for the same period year-over-year, led by the impact of acquisitions and the higher materials sales prices.

Outlook

Our guidance for 2024 is unchanged with the exception of revenue as noted below.

• Revenue in the range of $3.9 billion to $4.0 billion, narrowed from $3.8 billion to $4.0 billion
• Adjusted EBITDA margin in the range of 9.5% to 11.5%
• SG&A expense in the range of 7.5% to 8.0% of revenue
• Mid-20s effective tax rate for adjusted net income
• Capital expenditures of approximately $130 million to $150 million

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 Construction Incorporated 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, 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 loss on debt extinguishment, stock-based compensation expense and other costs, net, which include legal fees for the defense of a former Company officer in his ongoing civil litigation with the Securities and Exchange Commission, reorganization costs, strategic acquisition and divestiture expenses, and a litigation charge in 2023.

We provide adjusted income before income taxes, adjusted provision for income taxes, adjusted net income attributable to Granite Construction Incorporated, 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;
• Transaction costs which include acquired intangible amortization expense and acquisition-related depreciation;
• Loss on debt extinguishment, and
• Stock-based compensation expense.

We also provide materials segment cash gross profit to exclude the impact of the segment’s depreciation, depletion and amortization from the segment’s gross profit. Management believes that non-GAAP financial measures such as materials segment cash gross profit 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.

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 the Company's performance. However, the reader is cautioned that any non-GAAP financial measures provided by the Company are provided in addition to, and not as alternatives for, the Company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Items that may have a significant impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows must be considered when assessing the Company's actual financial condition and performance regardless of whether these items are included in non-GAAP financial measures. The methods used by the Company to calculate its 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 the Company may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies.

(1)		In the first quarter of 2024, we revised the adjusted net income calculation to exclude the impact of stock-based compensation expense. The prior period adjusted net income and diluted loss per share calculations have been recast to conform to current presentation.
(2)		The tax effect of adjusting items was calculated using the Company’s estimated annual statutory tax. The tax effect of adjusting items for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 excludes $27 million of the loss on debt extinguishment as it was almost entirely non-tax deductible. The three and six months ended June 30, 2023 excludes the $51 million loss on debt extinguishment which was non-tax deductible.
(3)		The dilutive effect of the restricted stock units (“RSUs”) is included in the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 diluted earnings per share calculation and therefore no additional changes are required in the reconciliation herein. Due to net losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the unvested RSUs representing 586,000 and 584,000 shares, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. As we have adjusted net income for those periods, these potential shares are dilutive and included in the reconciliation above. The dilutive effect of the 2.75% Convertible Notes and the 3.75% Convertible Notes was 35,000 and 8,138,000 shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 10,095,000 shares each for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.
(4)		When calculating diluted net income attributable to common shareholders, GAAP requires that we include potential share dilution from the convertible notes when not antidilutive. For the purposes of calculating adjusted diluted net income per share attributable to common shareholders, the dilutive effect of the convertible notes is removed to reflect the impact of the purchased equity derivative instruments which economically offsets dilution risk.
