WATSONVILLE, Calif.- Granite Construction Incorporated (NYSE: GVA) today announced results for the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Third Quarter 2023 Results

Net income totaled $58 million, or $1.13 per diluted share, compared to net income of $69 million, or $1.36 per diluted share, for the same period in the prior year. Adjusted net income (1) totaled $75 million, or $1.69 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net income (1) of $57 million, or $1.28 per diluted share, for the same period in the prior year.

•Revenue increased $108 million to $1.1 billion compared to $1.0 billion for the same period in the prior year. Both Construction and Materials segments posted year-over-year increases with the California and Mountain Groups up 15% and 11%, respectively, as well as a slight increase in revenue in the Central Group.

•Gross profit increased $52 million to $167 million compared to $115 million for the same period in the prior year. 

•Selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased $13 million to $75 million, or 6.7% of revenue, compared to $62 million, or 6.1% of revenue, for the same period in the prior year. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to $11 million of additional incentive compensation expense year-over-year.

•Adjusted EBITDA (1) totaled $124 million, compared to $91 million for the same period in the prior year.

"I am pleased with our third quarter performance,” said Kyle Larkin, Granite President and Chief Executive Officer. “These results demonstrate the strong progress we are making towards the goals identified in our strategic plan that we introduced just over two years ago. We have built record CAP while also de-risking our project portfolio by focusing on best value projects. During this same time, we have also bolstered our materials business through both greenfield and bolt-on investments, and we improved segment margins. We are growing revenue and increasing adjusted EBITDA margin and believe we are on track to reach our 2024 financial targets.”

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 Results

Net income totaled $18 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, compared to net income of $61 million, or $1.25 per diluted share, for the same period in the prior year. Adjusted net income (1) totaled $103 million, or $2.32 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net income (1) of $79 million, or $1.75 per diluted share, for the same period in the prior year.

•    Revenue increased $63 million to $2.58 billion compared to $2.51 billion for the same period in the prior year.

•    Gross profit increased $29 million to $302 million compared to $273 million for the same period in the prior year.

•SG&A expenses were $212 million, or 8.3% of revenue, compared to $192 million, or 7.6% of revenue, for the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily driven by higher incentive compensation and non-qualified deferred compensation expenses in 2023.

•Adjusted EBITDA (1) totaled $195 million compared to $160 million for the same period in the prior year.

(1)Adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”), EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP measures. Please refer to the description and reconciliation of non-GAAP measures in the attached tables.

(2)CAP is comprised of revenue we expect to record in the future on executed contracts, including 100% of our consolidated joint venture contracts and our proportionate share of unconsolidated joint venture contracts, as well as the general construction portion of construction manager/general contractor, construction manager/at risk and progressive design build contracts to the extent contract execution and funding is probable.

Revenue in the third quarter increased 12% year-over-year. This increase overcame a weather-related slow start to the year and resulted in a revenue increase of 3% for the nine-months-ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year. The year-over-year revenue increase in the quarter was driven by strong performances by the California and Mountain Groups, which increased revenue by 21% and 12%, respectively. Central Group revenue was flat compared to the same period in the prior year as newer projects ramp up and replace several large projects that are nearing completion.

Gross profit and gross profit margin during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased over the same periods in the prior year despite the negative impact of the I-64 High Rise Bridge Project in Virginia, which reduced gross profit in the third quarter by $8 million, and after non-controlling interest by $4 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the impact to gross profit from the project was $40 million and the impact after non-controlling interest was $20 million. Final completion for the project is expected in the fourth quarter.

CAP increased $147 million sequentially and $1.5 billion year-over-year. Both public and private markets continue to be strong and contribute to our record CAP as of the end of the quarter. With the current market environment, we believe there are substantial opportunities to build CAP in the fourth quarter and into 2024.

Materials Segment
	Three Months Ended September 30,										Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2023			2022			Change				2023			2022			Change
Revenue	$	171,122		$	161,539		$	9,583	5.9	%	$	376,913		$	373,185		$	3,728	1.0	%
Gross profit	$	29,481		$	22,038		$	7,443	33.8	%	$	49,067		$	40,965		$	8,102	19.8	%
Gross profit as a percent of revenue	17.2		%	13.6		%					13.0		%	11.0		%

Materials revenue and gross profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased compared to the same periods of the prior year driven by higher asphalt and aggregate sales prices. Additionally, in 2023, oil and energy costs have normalized compared to the significant inflation in 2022 which negatively impacted materials gross profit margin in the prior year.

Outlook

Our guidance for 2023 is unchanged as noted below:

•Revenue in the range of $3.35 billion to $3.45 billion

•Adjusted EBITDA margin in the range of 7.5% to 8.5%

•SG&A expense in the range of 8.0% to 8.5% of revenue

•Mid-20s effective tax rate for adjusted net income

•Capital expenditures of approximately $120 million

The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA margin to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measure of net income attributable to Granite Construction Incorporated because the Company cannot predict with a reasonable degree of certainty and without unreasonable efforts certain excluded items that are inherently uncertain and depend on various factors. For these reasons, we are unable to assess the probable 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 and other costs, net, which include investigation-related legal fees and settlement charges, a litigation charge, reorganization costs, strategic acquisition and divestiture expenses, non-cash impairment charges and a gain on sale of a business in 2022.

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 includes acquired intangible amortization expense and acquisition related depreciation related to the acquisition of Layne and Liquiforce;

•Loss on debt extinguishment, and

•Income taxes related to the disposal of Inliner goodwill, tax basis difference on held for sale entities and establishment of valuation allowance.

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)The tax effect of adjusting items was calculated using the Company’s estimated annual statutory tax rate. The tax effect of adjusting items for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 excludes the $51 million loss on debt extinguishment and $5.0 million non-cash impairment charges included in “Other costs, net” which are not tax deductible. The tax effect of adjusting items for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 excludes a $12 million accrual related to the resolution of the SEC investigation which is not tax deductible.

(2)Diluted weighted average shares of common stock includes the dilutive effect on net income attributable to Granite Construction Incorporated of the 2.75% Convertible Notes and the 3.75% Convertible Notes potentially converting into 9,099 shares of common stock for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 7,309 shares of common stock for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the potential dilutive effect of the 9,099 shares related to the 2.75% Convertible Notes and the 3.75% Convertible Notes is not included as their inclusion would be antidilutive.

(3)When calculating diluted net income attributable to common shareholders, GAAP requires that we include potential share dilution from the 2.75% Convertible Notes and the 3.75% Convertible Notes when not antidilutive. For the purposes of calculating adjusted diluted net income per share attributable to common shareholders, the dilutive effect from the 2.75% Convertible Notes and 3.75% Convertible Notes is removed to reflect the impact of the purchased equity derivative instruments which offset any potential share dilution above the $31.47 conversion price up to a share price of $53.44 for the 2.75% Convertible Notes and above the $46.12 conversion price up to a share price of $79.83 for the 3.75% Convertible Notes. The average share price did not exceed $53.44 in any period.
