Basis of Presentation
Interim Consolidated Financial Information
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial reporting pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income (loss), shareholders’ equity and cash flows with respect to the interim consolidated financial statements, have been included. Certain reclassifications were made to prior year amounts to conform to the current year presentation. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 has been derived from the audited financial statements as of that date. The results of operations and comprehensive income are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year or the results for any future periods. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2025, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on February 25, 2026 (the "2025 Annual Report").
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the period reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The most significant estimates are related to estimates of costs to complete contracts, variable consideration inclusive of pending change orders and claims, shared savings, useful lives of property and equipment, insurance reserves, the recognition and measurement of current and deferred income taxes, including the measurement of certain tax positions, estimates surrounding stock-based compensation, the recoverability of goodwill and intangibles and allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company estimates a cost accrual every quarter that represents costs incurred but not invoiced for services performed or goods delivered during the period, and estimates revenue from the contract cost portion of these accruals based on current gross margin rates to be consistent with its cost method of revenue recognition.
The Company estimates costs to complete on fixed price contracts which are determined on an individual contract basis by evaluating each project’s status as of the balance sheet date, and using our historical experience with the level of effort required to complete the underlying project. Claims and change orders are measured based on our historical experience with individual customers and similar contracts, and are evaluated by management individually. The Company includes these estimated amounts of variable consideration to the extent that it is probable there will not be a significant reversal of revenue.
Some of the Company’s contracts may have contract terms that include variable consideration such as safety or performance bonuses or liquidated damages. The Company includes the estimated amount of variable consideration in the transaction price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative recognized revenue will not occur when the final outcome of the variable consideration is determined. In contracts in which a significant reversal may occur, the Company exercises restraint in recognizing revenue on variable consideration. The Company often enters into contracts that contain liquidated damage clauses. The Company does not include amounts associated with liquidated damage clauses until it is probable that liquidated damages will occur. These items are continually monitored by multiple levels of management throughout the reporting period.
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had recognized revenues of $11.9 million and $23.5 million, respectively, related to large change orders and/or claims that had been included as contract price adjustments on certain contracts, some of which are multi-year projects. These change orders and/or claims are in the process of being negotiated in the normal course of business, and a portion of these recognized revenues had been included in multiple periods.
The cost-to-cost method of accounting requires the Company to make estimates about the expected revenue and gross profit on each of its contracts in process. During the three months ended June 30, 2026, net changes in estimates pertaining to certain projects increased consolidated gross margin by 0.9%, which resulted in increases in operating income of $9.8 million, net income of $6.0 million and diluted earnings per common share of $0.38. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, changes in estimates pertaining to certain projects increased consolidated gross margin by 0.7% and resulted in increases in operating income of $14.7 million, net income of $7.1 million and diluted earnings per common share of $0.45. Additional discussion on the impact of these estimate changes can be found in Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Consolidated Results of Operations.”
During the three months ended June 30, 2025, net changes in estimates pertaining to certain projects decreased consolidated gross margin by 1.0%, which resulted in decreases in operating income of $8.9 million, net income of $6.7 million and diluted earnings per common share of $0.43. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, changes in estimates pertaining to certain projects decreased consolidated gross margin by 1.2% and resulted in decreases in operating income of $21.3 million, net income of $15.7 million and diluted earnings per common share of $0.99.
Foreign Currency
The functional currency for the Company’s Canadian operations is the Canadian dollar. Assets and liabilities denominated in Canadian dollars are translated into U.S. dollars at the end-of-period exchange rate. Revenues and expenses are translated using average exchange rates for the periods reported. Equity accounts are translated at historical rates. Cumulative translation adjustments are included as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders’ equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses, arising primarily from changes in exchange rates on short-term monetary assets and liabilities, and intercompany loans that are not deemed long-term investment accounts are recorded in the “other income, net” line on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Foreign currency losses, recorded in other income, net, for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were $1.0 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Foreign currency losses, recorded in other income, net, for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were $2.0 million and $0.8 million, respectively. Foreign currency translation gains and losses, arising from intercompany loans that are deemed long-term investment accounts, are recorded in the foreign currency translation adjustment line on the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Changes to U.S. GAAP are typically established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of accounting standards updates (“ASUs”) to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs. The Company, based on its assessment, determined that any recently issued or proposed ASUs not listed below are either not applicable to the Company or will have minimal impact on its financial statements when adopted.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which introduces a practical expedient for estimating expected credit losses on current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions under Topic 606. The practical expedient allows entities to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date would not change for the remaining life of the asset when evaluating expected credit losses. This standard is effective for the Company for the annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2025, with early adoption permitted, and should be applied prospectively. The Company elected to adopt this practical expedient on January 1, 2026, on a prospective basis. This election did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires the disaggregation of certain expenses in the notes of the financials, to provide enhanced transparency into the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. The guidance will require disclosure of certain costs and expenses on an interim and annual basis in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. The update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this pronouncement should be applied either (i) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date or (ii) retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements, which is intended to clarify the applicability of interim disclosure requirements, provides additional guidance on the disclosures required in interim reporting periods, and introduces a principle requiring entities to disclose events occurring since the end of the most recent annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. The update is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this pronouncement can be applied either prospectively or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
