Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Arcosa, Inc. reported strong first quarter 2026 results and raised its full-year 2026 outlook for continuing operations. Revenues from continuing operations rose to $571.7 million and income from continuing operations more than doubled to $23.3 million. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations increased 10% to $102.9 million, expanding margin to 18.0%.
Including discontinued operations, net income grew to $37.8 million and Adjusted EBITDA reached $121.3 million. Arcosa completed a $450 million barge divestiture and used part of the proceeds to reduce debt, lowering pro forma Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA to 1.9x. The company now guides 2026 revenues from continuing operations to $2.6–$2.7 billion and Adjusted EBITDA to $545–$585 million.
Positive
- Raised 2026 guidance for continuing operations: revenues now expected at $2.6–$2.7 billion and Adjusted EBITDA at $545–$585 million, higher than the previous ranges.
- Material profit and cash-flow improvement: Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations grew 10% to $102.9 million with 100 bps margin expansion, and Free Cash Flow from continuing operations improved to $21.2 million from $(49.1) million.
- Deleveraging after $450 million barge divestiture: pro forma Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA falls to 1.9x, enhancing financial flexibility while refocusing on two core growth segments.
Negative
- Margin pressure in Construction Products: Adjusted Segment EBITDA declined 2% to $55.7 million and margin fell to 20.2% from 21.7%, reflecting asphalt weakness and maintenance downtime.
- Lower wind tower revenues: Engineered Structures growth relied on utility structures, while wind tower revenues declined to $70.0 million from $89.0 million and backlog stepped down from $681.1 million at March 31, 2025 to $600.0 million at March 31, 2026.
Insights
Arcosa posts strong Q1 growth, lifts 2026 guidance, and deleverages after barge sale.
Arcosa delivered solid Q1 2026 performance: revenues from continuing operations rose to $571.7 million, while Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations increased 10% to $102.9 million and margin expanded to 18.0%. Net income reached $37.8 million, up sharply from $23.6 million a year earlier.
Management raised full-year 2026 guidance for continuing operations, targeting revenues of $2.6–$2.7 billion and Adjusted EBITDA of $545–$585 million, up from prior ranges. This reflects particularly strong trends in utility structures, which drove record backlog and margin gains within the Engineered Structures segment.
The completed $450 million barge divestiture simplified the portfolio and allowed debt reduction. Pro forma Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA improves to 1.9x from 2.3x as of March 31, 2026, giving additional balance sheet flexibility. Future filings and updates, including the full-year 2026 results, will show how effectively Arcosa converts its enlarged backlog into earnings and cash flow.

Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations (1) | $ | 102.9 | | | $ | 93.2 |"
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
discontinued operations financial
"the results of operations and cash flows have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented."
Discontinued operations are parts of a company that it has decided to sell or shut down, and no longer plans to run in the future. This matters to investors because it helps them understand which parts of the business are ongoing and which are being phased out, providing a clearer picture of the company’s current performance and future prospects. Think of it like a store closing a department—it no longer contributes to sales or profits.
Free Cash Flow financial
"Free Cash Flow from continuing operations for the quarter was $21.2 million, up from $(49.1) million"
Free cash flow is the amount of money a company has left over after paying all its expenses and investing in its business, like buying equipment or updating facilities. It shows how much cash is available to reward shareholders, pay down debt, or save for future growth. This helps investors understand if a company is financially healthy and able to grow.
backlog financial
"We ended the first quarter with record backlog for utility and related structures of $557.6 million"
A backlog is the amount of work or orders that a company has received but hasn't completed yet. It’s like a restaurant with many dishes to serve; the backlog shows how many orders are still waiting to be finished. It matters because a large backlog can indicate strong demand or potential delays in delivering products or services.
Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA was 2.3x for the trailing twelve months. Pro forma for the sale of the barge business"
Net debt to adjusted EBITDA is a leverage ratio that compares a company’s net debt (total interest-bearing debt minus cash) to its recurring operating earnings after removing one-off items. Think of it like how many years of steady take-home pay the business would need to pay off its outstanding debt; investors use it to gauge debt burden, financial risk and relative creditworthiness, with lower ratios generally indicating a safer balance sheet.

(2) On April 1, 2026, the Company completed the previously announced sale of its barge business. As of March 31, 2026, the assets and liabilities of the barge business have been classified as held for sale and the results of operations and cash flows have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented. To provide a more meaningful comparison, revenues in the First Quarter 2026 Consolidated Highlights above include barge revenues of $91.6 million and $84.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, which are presented “net” in income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Antonio Carrillo, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our first quarter results reflect strong execution in our continuing businesses, with 10 percent growth in Adjusted EBITDA outpacing revenue growth. Performance in the quarter was led by robust growth and margin expansion in our utility structures business, which achieved record quarterly revenue and Adjusted EBITDA margin.
“Construction Products performed in line with expectations despite a slow start to the year driven by cold weather challenges, with performance improving as the quarter progressed. Despite seasonal headwinds, aggregates volumes improved 4 percent and unit profitability increased 7 percent, outpacing 2 percent pricing growth. In Engineered Structures, results exceeded our expectations, driven by accelerating demand tied to grid modernization and increased power needs. We converted this demand for utility structures into strong double-digit revenue growth, meaningful margin expansion, and record backlog, more than offsetting the expected decline in wind towers.
“In April, we took a pivotal step to further simplify our portfolio by divesting our barge business and allocating a portion of the proceeds to pay down debt, underscoring our commitment to balance sheet strength and financial flexibility. Now with two growth segments, we are fully focused on Construction Products and Engineered Structures, both well aligned to benefit from infrastructure investment and power market tailwinds in the U.S.”
| 972.942.6500 | 2 | arcosa.com | ||||||
2026 Outlook and Guidance
The Company updated its full year 2026 guidance to reflect continuing operations only as follows:
•Removed the full year contribution from the barge business included in the prior range, which was $410 million to $430 million for revenues and $70 million to $75 million for Adjusted EBITDA.
•Raised the guidance range for revenues and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations based on the strong performance in utility structures for the first quarter and increased confidence in the balance of the year.
| Updated Guidance | Previous Guidance | ||||||||||
| Revenues from continuing operations | $2.6 billion to $2.7 billion | $2.54 billion to $2.67 billion | |||||||||
| Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations | $545 million to $585 million | $520 million to $565 million | |||||||||
Carrillo concluded, “Based on our first quarter performance and improved visibility into the balance of the year, we are raising our full year 2026 guidance for continuing operations. Momentum in utility structures, solid execution across the business, and disciplined cost management give us confidence in our outlook. With a simplified portfolio and an attractive demand environment, we remain well positioned to deliver another year of strong financial performance and are confident in our ability to create long-term value for our shareholders.”
First Quarter 2026 Results and Commentary
All comparisons are versus the prior year quarter unless noted otherwise.
Construction Products
•Revenues increased 5% to $276.3 million primarily due to 5% growth in aggregates and a 26% increase in shoring products, partially offset by lower revenues in our asphalt business which was impacted by colder temperatures in the northeast during the seasonal low point.
•Aggregates Freight-Adjusted Revenues increased 6% supported by 4% volume growth and 2% Aggregates Freight-Adjusted Average Sales Price expansion.
•Aggregates Adjusted Cash Gross Profit Margin expanded 220 basis points to 43.3% and Adjusted Cash Gross Profit per Ton increased 7%.
•Adjusted Segment EBITDA decreased 2% to $55.7 million primarily due to the decline in the asphalt business and planned maintenance downtime in specialty materials which reduced cost absorption. The decrease was partially offset by the growth in aggregates and shoring products.
•Adjusted Segment EBITDA Margin decreased 150 basis points to 20.2% from 21.7% in the prior period. Freight-Adjusted Segment EBITDA Margin was 21.9% compared to 23.6% in the prior period.
| 972.942.6500 | 3 | arcosa.com | ||||||
Engineered Structures
•Revenues increased 4% to $295.4 million driven by a 15% increase in utility and related structures, partially offset by an expected decline in wind towers due primarily to lower volumes.
•Adjusted Segment EBITDA increased 21% to $62.4 million and margin expanded 300 basis points to a record 21.1% as the growth in our utility structures business continues to accelerate, more than compensating for the decrease in wind towers.
•Order activity for our utility structures business remains robust as our customers focus on improving and expanding the electrical grid. We ended the first quarter with record backlog for utility and related structures of $557.6 million, which is up 28% from the start of the year. We expect to recognize 73% of the backlog in 2026.
•During the first quarter, we received wind tower orders of $43 million for 2026 and 2027 delivery. The backlog for our wind towers business at the end of the quarter was $600.0 million, of which we expect to recognize 36% during 2026 and 59% during 2027.
Corporate and Other Financial Notes
•Excluding acquisition and divestiture-related costs, which have been excluded from Adjusted EBITDA, corporate expenses increased to $15.7 million from $15.3 million in the prior period primarily due to higher compensation-related costs.
•Acquisition and divestiture-related costs were $1.9 million in the first quarter compared to $0.8 million in the prior period.
•Interest expense totaled $24.0 million, a decrease of $4.3 million from the prior period primarily due to a reduction in outstanding debt year-over-year.
•The effective tax rate in the first quarter was 5.3% compared to 19.4% in the prior year. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to a one-time state tax benefit and a higher compensation-related benefit in the current period due to a change in timing of annual restricted stock vesting.
Cash Flow and Liquidity
•Total operating cash flow was $71.9 million during the first quarter, up from $(0.7) million in the prior period. Operating cash flow from continuing operations was $58.1 million compared to $(21.1) million in the prior period. The improvement for continuing operations was primarily due to higher earnings and a $52.9 million reduction in the use of cash for working capital.
•Capital expenditures for continuing operations in the first quarter were $43.5 million, up $10.5 million from the prior period which reflects increased investment in our core growth platforms.
•Free Cash Flow from continuing operations for the quarter was $21.2 million, up from $(49.1) million in the prior period.
•In March, as previously announced, we completed the acquisition of a central Florida-based natural aggregates operation for $60.0 million, which is included in the Construction Products segment.
•During the quarter we repurchased shares totaling $17.5 million, leaving $32.5 million remaining under our share repurchase program.
•In April 2026, the Company used $83.0 million of cash proceeds from the sale of the barge business to prepay a portion of the outstanding term loan balance.
•Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA was 2.3x for the trailing twelve months. Pro forma for the sale of the barge business completed on April 1, 2026, Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA was 1.9x.
•We ended the quarter with total liquidity of $853.2 million, including $153.2 million of cash and cash equivalents and full availability under our $700 million revolving credit facility.

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA
($ in millions)
(unaudited)
“EBITDA” is defined as net income plus interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, and amortization. “Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as EBITDA adjusted for certain items that are not reflective of the normal earnings of our business. GAAP does not define EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA and they should not be considered as alternatives to earnings measures defined by GAAP, including net income. We use Adjusted EBITDA to assess the operating performance of our consolidated business, as a metric for incentive-based compensation, as a measure within our lending arrangements, and as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting as we believe that it closely correlates to long-term shareholder value. As a widely used metric by analysts, investors, and competitors in our industry, we believe Adjusted EBITDA also assists investors in comparing a company's performance on a consistent basis without regard to depreciation, depletion, amortization, and other items which can vary significantly depending on many factors. “Adjusted EBITDA Margin” is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenues.
