Management Commentary

“Everus delivered another quarter of record financial results, reflecting robust market demand, disciplined execution and our continued focus on our 4EVER strategic priorities,” said Jeffrey S. Thiede, president and CEO of Everus. “Third quarter revenues increased 40%, including 36% organic growth driven by both E&M and T&D. EBITDA increased 58%, while EBITDA margin expanded 110 basis points, reflecting our team’s ongoing commitment to the Everus operational playbook.

“Our robust backlog growth, up 86% year over year to $5.48 billion, underscores the strength of our industry position, our consistent track record of successful project execution and the deep, long-standing relationships we have with our customers. Our continued momentum reflects strong project opportunities across our diverse markets, including the data center, high-tech and hospitality submarkets.

“As previously announced, we are very pleased to have completed the acquisition of Epsilon Industries, which significantly expands our off-site modular construction and prefabrication capabilities. The integration is progressing as planned, and our teams continue working to expand the use of modular construction across our operations and meet growing customer demand. We ended the quarter with net leverage of 0.7x, providing ample financial flexibility to continue executing on our key growth initiatives. Our capital allocation strategy prioritizes investments in organic growth and strategic acquisitions that expand our geographic reach, diversify our product offerings and deepen our service capabilities.

“Based on our results and continued confidence in the sustained momentum across our business, we expect a strong finish to the year and are once again raising our full-year outlook. We now expect revenues to be in the range of $5.0 billion to $5.1 billion and EBITDA in the range of $485 million to $495 million. We remain firmly committed to executing our strategy and are grateful to our employees for their continued dedication and outstanding contributions to safely Building America’s Future. We are confident in our ability to deliver long-term value for our shareholders by capitalizing on the significant opportunities ahead.”

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Commentary

Balance Sheet

As of Sept. 30, 2026, the company had $244.8 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and $571.5 million of gross debt, compared to $152.7 million and $285.0 million, respectively, as of Dec. 31, 2025.

During the third quarter of 2026, the company entered into an amended credit agreement that increased the revolving credit facility by $125.0 million. In connection with the amended credit agreement, the company drew $100.0 million under the credit facility, which was still outstanding as of Sept. 30, 2026. As a result, the company had $247.8 million available under the revolving credit facility, net of $2.2 million of outstanding standby letters of credit. As of Dec. 31, 2025, the company had $222.8 million available under the revolving credit facility, net of $2.2 million of outstanding standby letters of credit.

Net leverage, defined as net debt-to-trailing 12-month EBITDA, was 0.7x as of Sept. 30, 2026, compared to 0.4x as of Dec. 31, 2025.

Working capital, defined as current assets minus current liabilities, was $612.3 million as of Sept. 30, 2026, compared to $560.2 million as of Dec. 31, 2025. The working capital changes were driven by the 2026 acquisitions, project timing, workload activity and billing fluctuations, primarily from increased receivables and cash, partially offset by increased net contract liabilities, accounts payables and accrued compensation.

Cash Flow

Operating cash flows were $267.3 million for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2026, compared to $108.6 million for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2025. The increase was primarily from favorable changes in operating assets and liabilities to support company growth, including revenue growth, and increased operating results with higher non-cash items, including amortization expenses from the acquisitions.

Capital expenditures were $53.4 million for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2026, compared to $42.1 million for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2025. The increase was primarily from increased vehicle and equipment investments to support the company's growth, partially offset by a prefabrication-related investment made during the first quarter of 2025.

Everus had free cash flow of $221.2 million for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2026, compared to $74.8 million for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2025. The increase was primarily from higher operating cash flows, partially offset by higher net capital expenditures.

Investing cash flows included net cash outflows of $380.5 million related to acquisitions completed during the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2026.

Forecast for 2026

Because of the strong results for the first three quarters of the year and the acquisitions completed during 2026, Everus is raising its guidance and now expects:

• Revenues to be in the range of $5.0 billion to $5.1 billion, updated from $4.5 billion to $4.7 billion.
• EBITDA to be in the range of $485 million to $495 million, updated from $410 million to $425 million.

Everus still expects gross capital expenditures to be in the range of $90 million to $100 million, representing between 1.8% to 2.0% of forecasted revenues.

Backlog

Backlog is a common measurement in the construction services industry. Everus' determination of backlog can include projects that have a written award, a letter of intent, a notice to proceed, an agreed-upon work order to perform work on mutually accepted terms, and conditions and change orders or claims to the extent management believes additional contract revenues will be earned and are deemed probable of collection. Contracts are subject to delays, defaults or cancellations; changes in scope of services to be provided; and adjustments to costs. Backlog also may be affected by project delays or cancellations resulting from weather conditions, external market factors and economic factors beyond Everus' control, among other things. Accordingly, there is no assurance that backlog will be realized. For the periods presented in the following backlog table, Everus did not experience any material impacts related to delays or cancellations of planned projects included in backlog. The timing of contract awards, including contracts awarded pursuant to master service agreements, duration of large new contracts and the mix of services, can significantly affect backlog. Backlog at any given point in time may not accurately represent revenue or net income realized in any period, and backlog as of the end of the year may not be indicative of revenue or net income expected to be realized in the following year. Backlog should not be relied upon as a stand-alone indicator of future results.

The following table provides estimated backlog as of the dates indicated:

Everus Construction Group, Inc.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(Unaudited)

In addition to information prepared in accordance with GAAP, the company evaluates revenue and operating performance using the non-GAAP financial measures of organic revenue, organic revenue growth, EBITDA, EBITDA margin, net debt, net leverage and, in some cases, applicable measures by segment, and evaluates its liquidity using the non-GAAP financial measure of free cash flow. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for an analysis of the company's results as reported under GAAP. Because of these limitations, organic revenue, organic revenue growth, EBITDA, EBITDA margin, net debt, net leverage and free cash flow should not be considered as replacements for revenue, revenue growth, net income, net income margin, total debt, gross leverage and cash provided by (used in) operating activities, the most comparable GAAP measures, respectively. Non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized; therefore, it may not be possible to compare them with other companies’ measures of organic revenue, organic revenue growth, EBITDA, EBITDA margin, net debt, net leverage and free cash flow having the same or similar names.

Organic Revenues and Organic Revenue Growth

Everus uses organic revenues and organic revenue growth to measure its revenue performance on a consistent basis compared to prior periods. The company believes these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to the corresponding GAAP measures of revenues and revenue growth, are useful to investors as they provide a basis for consistently comparing revenues and revenue growth with prior periods and peer companies. Organic revenues are defined as revenues, excluding the impacts of acquisitions and divestitures in the past 12 months. Organic revenue growth is calculated by dividing the difference between current-year organic revenues and prior-year organic revenues by prior-year organic revenues.

The following table reconciles revenues to organic revenues and provides organic revenue growth on a consolidated basis and by segment.

EBITDA and EBITDA Margin

Everus utilizes EBITDA and EBITDA margin to consistently assess its operating performance and as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting since the company believes EBITDA closely correlates to long-term enterprise value. Everus believes that measuring performance on an EBITDA basis is useful to investors because it enables a more consistent evaluation of its period-to-period operational performance. Everus also believes these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to the corresponding GAAP measures of net income and net income margin, are useful to investors and provide meaningful information about operational efficiency by excluding the impacts of differences in tax jurisdictions and structures, debt levels and capital investment. Investors also may use EBITDA to calculate leverage as a multiple of EBITDA. Management uses EBITDA and EBITDA margin, in addition to GAAP metrics, to evaluate the company's operating results, calculate compensation packages and determine leverage as a multiple of EBITDA to establish the appropriate funding of operations.

EBITDA is calculated by adding back interest expense, net of interest income, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization to net income. EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing EBITDA by operating revenues.

The following table reconciles net income to EBITDA and provides the calculation of EBITDA margin.

Net Debt and Net Leverage

Everus uses net debt and net leverage as measures of assessing its borrowing capacity and achieving its optimal capital structure. The company believes these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to the corresponding GAAP measures of total debt and gross leverage, are useful to investors because they provide insight into how long it would take the company to pay back its debt if net debt and EBITDA were constant.

Net debt is calculated by adding unamortized debt issuance costs to the total debt balance on the balance sheet, less any unrestricted cash. Net leverage is calculated by dividing net debt by trailing 12-month EBITDA.

The following table provides the reconciliations of trailing 12-month EBITDA as of Sept. 30, 2026, and Dec. 31, 2025.

	Twelve months ended September 30, 2026			Nine months ended September 30, 2026			Twelve months ended December 31, 2025			Nine months ended September 30, 2025

Free Cash Flow

Everus uses free cash flow as a measure of liquidity that indicates how much cash the company can produce after taking cash outflows from operations and assets into consideration. The company believes this non-GAAP financial measure, in addition to the corresponding GAAP measure of cash provided by (used in) operating activities, is useful to investors because it provides meaningful information about the company’s financial health and ability to generate cash, support additional debt obligations, pay potential future dividends and fund growth. Free cash flow does not represent residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes.

Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less net capital expenditures.

The following table provides reconciliations of cash provided by operating activities to free cash flow.

	Nine months ended September 30,
		2026				2025
	(In millions)
Net cash used in investing activities	$	(429.5	)		$	(33.6	)
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities	$	257.2			$	(11.8	)
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	267.3			$	108.6
Capital expenditures		(53.4	)			(42.1	)
Net proceeds from sale or disposition of property, plant and equipment		7.3				8.3
Free cash flow	$	221.2			$	74.8

Non-GAAP Financial Guidance

Everus has completed the preliminary purchase price allocations for the SE&M and Epsilon acquisitions, but these amounts are dependent upon, among other things, finalizing the fair values of acquired tangible and intangible assets and valuation of tax liabilities, which are inherently uncertain and subject to material change as Everus completes its valuation work during the measurement period. Everus is still gathering the necessary information for these disclosures. Therefore, Everus is unable to provide a reconciliation of its forward-looking non-GAAP financial guidance relating to full-year 2026 EBITDA without unreasonable efforts.

Key Terms

ebitda financial

EBITDA stands for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. It measures a company's profitability by focusing on the money it makes from its core operations, ignoring expenses like taxes and accounting adjustments. Investors use EBITDA to compare how well different companies are performing financially, as it provides a clearer picture of operational success without the influence of financial structure or accounting choices.
