Management Comments

Jeffrey S. Thiede

We are very pleased with our strong start to the year, highlighted by another quarter of record revenues, disciplined execution and continued momentum across our key end markets. First quarter revenues increased 25%, driven by growth across both E&M and T&D. Our EBITDA increased 44% as the strong execution we delivered during 2025 carried into this year, reflecting the ongoing focus, dedication and hard work of our team. We also generated another quarter of record backlog, further evidence of our deep customer relationships, successful track record and strong market tailwinds. Our backlog at quarter-end was $3.7 billion, an increase of 20% year-over-year. While we expect backlog will continue to be lumpy, we are very encouraged by the strength in our business and remain confident in our ability to grow. We are excited to have completed our first acquisition as a stand-alone public company. SE&M Constructors expands our geographic footprint in the attractive Southeast region, deepens our expertise in key end markets and increases our customer base, while adding a talented, experienced management team. Following the transaction, our pro forma net leverage as of April 2 was approximately 0.5x, providing ample financial flexibility to continue pursuing our strategic growth initiatives that prioritize investment in organic opportunities and acquisitions aligned with our long-term objectives. Based on our strong first quarter results and the acquisition of SE&M, which closed in the second quarter, we are raising our 2026 guidance. We now expect revenues to be in the range of $4.3 billion to $4.4 billion and EBITDA to be in the range of $345 million to $360 million. We remain committed to our 4EVER strategic priorities and are confident in our ability to deliver on our long-term financial goals.
