PHOENIX, AZ – August 4, 2026 - Centuri Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: CTRI) ("Centuri" or the "Company") today announced financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 28, 2026.

•Produced Gross Profit of $69.1 million, a 2% increase from the same period last year
•Delivered Base Revenue and Base Gross Profit of $959.5 million and $75.7 million, respectively, representing increases of 36% and 21% versus the second quarter of 2025
•Reported Net Income of $6.1 million and Adjusted Net Income of $24.4 million, 44% higher than last year's same-period Adjusted Net Income
•Recorded Adjusted EBIT of $40.5 million, an 8% increase year-over-year
•Realized Adjusted EBITDA of $75.7 million, a 5% increase year-over-year
•Secured bookings of nearly $850 million, bringing year-to-date bookings to $2.2 billion and book-to-bill ratio to 1.3x
•Expanded opportunity pipeline by 23% to a record $16 billion, highlighting continued end-market strength
•Closed the acquisition of JJ White, Inc ("JJ White"), adding scale and key capabilities to the Union Electric segment
First-Half 2026 Results Summary
•Revenue of $1.69 billion and Base Revenue of $1.65 billion, 32% and 33% higher than last year, respectively
•Gross Profit of $104.9 million and Base Gross Profit of $103.8 million, 19% and 35% higher than last year, respectively
"Our second quarter results reflect tremendous year-over-year growth, including record quarterly revenue and a 21% year-over-year increase in Base Gross Profit," said Centuri President & CEO Christian Brown. "The business has delivered a trailing 12-month Base Gross Profit Margin of 7.8%, compared to 7.4% a year ago, underscoring sustained improvement in profitability. Notably, trailing 12-month margins expanded even as higher fuel prices created an estimated $6 million headwind in the second quarter, highlighting the strength and resilience of the underlying business. We are focused on driving higher-margin work into our backlog and delivering sustainable long-term growth. Our end-markets continue to display growth as evidenced by our $16 billion opportunity pipeline and approximately $2.5 billion of outstanding bids, which is up 15% from last quarter."
"In addition to our growing organic opportunities, we are excited about the recently announced acquisition of JJ White and want to welcome the team to Centuri. Consistent with our strategy laid out earlier this year, the acquisition adds scale in our Union Electric segment, strengthens our mechanical and electrical construction services, and adds in-plant construction services across several end-markets including data centers."
"During the first half of 2026, we organically increased our workforce by approximately 18%, or 1,700 employees, consistent with our backlog and Base Revenue growth. In addition, during the second quarter, and specifically aligned with our strategy to expand margins and mitigate seasonality within the U.S Gas business, we invested a further $3 million into resources, mobilization and ramp up. This planned investment into our U.S Gas business capacity is expected to deliver a meaningful impact to gross profit and margins in the third quarter and across subsequent quarters. For the second half of 2026, we forecast the overall Centuri Base Gross Profit Margin to be approximately 9.0%, which fully aligns with the expectations set within our Vision One Centuri strategy."
Management Commentary
Second quarter 2026 revenue increased by $237.9 million, or 33%, to $962.0 million, and Gross Profit was $69.1 million compared to $67.8 million in the prior year quarter. Revenue growth was broad-based across all segments, with Canadian Operations leading at 48%, followed by U.S. Gas at 45%, Union Electric at 23%, and Non-Union Electric at 11%.
Net Income Attributable to Common Stock in the second quarter was $6.1 million compared to $8.1 million in the prior year. Adjusted Net Income for the second quarter was $24.4 million, a 44% increase compared to the same quarter last year. Adjusted EBIT in the second quarter was $40.5 million compared to $37.6 million in the prior year quarter, an 8% year-over-year increase. Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter was $75.7 million compared to $71.8 million in the prior year quarter, a 5% year-over-year increase.
Base Revenue, Base Gross Profit, and Base Gross Profit Margin are non-GAAP measures that exclude the impact of storm restoration services, which are highly unpredictable, and the City of Chicago reversal, as described below. Base Revenue in the second quarter was $959.5 million versus $707.0 million in the prior year quarter, a 36% increase. Base Revenue growth was primarily driven by new bid and Master Service Agreement ("MSA") contracts in the U.S. Gas segment, new bid work in the Union Electric segment, the inclusion of Connect Utility Services in the Canadian Operations segment, and increased volumes under new and existing MSA in the Non-Union Electric segment. Base Gross Profit was $75.7 million in the second quarter, a 21% increase from $62.8 million reported in the same quarter last year. Gross Profit Margin was 7.2% in the second quarter, while Base Gross Profit Margin declined to 7.9% in the second quarter from 8.9% in the year prior, driven primarily by increased fuel costs and labor mobilization costs associated with the increase in headcount during the first half of 2026.
The Company estimates that second quarter results were negatively impacted by approximately $6 million due to higher fuel prices across its business and approximately $3 million due to investment in resources, mobilization, and ramp up associated with increased headcount in the U.S Gas segment. Together, these items had approximately 95 basis point impact on Base Gross Profit Margin.
In the second quarter of 2026, the Company wrote down all remaining accounts receivables and contract assets related to work completed for the City of Chicago prior to 2020 (the "City of Chicago reversal"). The determination was made following an opinion and order issued on April 20, 2026 by the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois. The write-down reduced second quarter U.S. Gas revenue by $9.0 million and the Company no longer has any amounts recorded as receivables or contract assets related to this matter. The Company has excluded this one-time item from certain of its Non-GAAP financial measures. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.
Centuri's Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio was 2.6x as of June 28, 2026, which compares to 3.7x as of June 29, 2025.
Commercial Update
During the second quarter of 2026, Centuri secured nearly $850 million in total bookings, representing a book-to-bill ratio of 0.9x. Bookings for the quarter included nearly $400 million of new bid awards, including a $125 million data center award, approximately $200 million of new or expanded MSA awards and approximately $250 million of MSA renewals.
Total bookings year-to-date reached approximately $2.2 billion, representing a book-to-bill ratio of 1.3x. For full year 2026, the Company is targeting a book-to-bill ratio of approximately 1.2x.
As of quarter-end, Centuri had a backlog of approximately $6.4 billion, an 8% increase from year-end 2025 and a 21% increase from the second quarter last year. The opportunity pipeline expanded to $16 billion at quarter-end, up 23% from the first quarter 2026, driven by continued end-market strength.
Strategic Acquisition
As previously announced, on July 20, 2026 the Company completed the acquisition of JJ White, a leading provider of union industrial, mechanical and electrical maintenance and construction services. Total cash consideration paid was approximately $62 million, subject to customary post-closing adjustments. With nearly 1,000 employees, JJ White brings expertise across power generation, industrial, data centers, and other industrial end markets. At closing, JJ White had approximately $315 million of backlog and an opportunity pipeline of approximately $2.8 billion. The Company expects
the annual gross profit contribution to be more than $20 million, with gross profit margins consistent with Centuri’s business. The Company expects the acquisition to be immediately accretive to Adjusted Net Income.
Full Year 2026 Financial Guidance
The Company has updated full year 2026 guidance, which includes anticipated contributions from JJ White and approximately $5 million of incremental expense associated with elevated fuel prices, assuming current fuel price levels persist through the third quarter.
Base Revenue and Base Gross Profit do not include contributions from storm restoration services, which are highly unpredictable. While storm restoration services remain a key capability of the Company management believes these non-GAAP measures are more suitable for evaluating fundamental business performance and for comparison purposes.
•Base Revenue of $3.5 to $3.7 billion
•Base Gross Profit of $270 to $290 million
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income are non-GAAP measures that include contributions from storm restoration services. Guidance for these measures and Revenue include estimated contributions from storm restoration services based on three-year (2023-2025) averages of $88 million of storm restoration services revenue and $28 million of storm restoration services gross profit.
•Revenue of $3.59 to $3.79 billion
•Adjusted EBITDA of $285 to $310 million
•Adjusted Net Income of $60 to $75 million
The Company also expects Net Capital Expenditures of $60 to $75 million in 2026.
Please review the second quarter investor presentation for more information related to our full year 2026 Guidance and historical storm restoration services contributions.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We prepare and present our financial statements in accordance with GAAP. However, management believes that EBIT, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings per share ("Adjusted EPS"), Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio, Base Revenue, Base Gross Profit, and Base Gross Profit Margin, all of which are measures not presented in accordance with GAAP, provide investors with additional useful information in evaluating our performance. We use these non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate performance and to make financial, investment and operational decisions. We believe that presentation of these non-GAAP measures provides investors with greater transparency with respect to our results of operations and that these measures are useful for period-to-period comparisons of results. Management also believes that providing these non-GAAP measures helps investors evaluate the Company’s operating performance, profitability and business trends in a way that is consistent with how management evaluates such matters. Because these non-GAAP measures, as defined, exclude some, but not all, items that affect comparable GAAP financial measures, these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Management believes that, due to the non-recurring nature of the City of Chicago reversal, its exclusion from certain non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with a better understanding of the current performance of the business.
EBIT is defined as earnings before interest and taxes. Adjusted EBIT is defined as EBIT, adjusted for (i) non-cash stock-based compensation, (ii) acquisition costs, (iii) separation-related costs, (iv) strategy implementation costs, (v) other professional fees and (vi) the City of Chicago reversal. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Adjusted EBIT, adjusted to remove depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as the percentage derived from dividing Adjusted EBITDA by revenue.
Management believes that EBIT, Adjusted EBIT, and Adjusted EBITDA help investors gain an understanding of the factors affecting our ongoing cash earnings from which capital investments are made and debt is serviced, and that Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBITDA provide additional insight by removing certain expenses that are non-recurring or non-operational in nature. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA Margin is useful for the same reason as Adjusted EBITDA, and also provides an additional understanding of how Adjusted EBITDA is impacted by factors other than changes in revenue.
Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio is calculated by dividing net debt as of the latest balance sheet date by the trailing twelve months of Adjusted EBITDA. Management believes this ratio helps investors understand our leverage. Net debt is defined as the sum of all bank debt on the balance sheet and finance lease liabilities, net of cash.
Adjusted Net Income is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for (i) separation-related costs, (ii) strategy implementation costs, (iii) amortization of intangible assets, (iv) other professional fees, (v) City of Chicago reversal, (vi) non-cash stock-based compensation, (vii) acquisition costs and (viii) the income tax impact of adjustments that are subject to tax, which is determined using the incremental statutory tax rates of the jurisdictions to which each adjustment relates for the respective periods. Management believes that Adjusted Net Income helps investors understand the profitability of our business when excluding certain expenses that are non-recurring and/or non-operational in nature. Adjusted EPS is defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding.
Base Revenue is defined as total revenue, net adjusted to exclude revenue attributable to storm restoration services and the impact of the City of Chicago reversal. Base Gross Profit is defined as gross profit adjusted to exclude gross profit attributable to storm restoration services and the City of Chicago reversal. Base Gross Profit Margin is calculated by dividing Base Gross Profit by Base Revenue. U.S. Gas Base Revenue is defined as U.S. Gas segment revenue, net adjusted to exclude the impact of the City of Chicago reversal. U.S. Gas Base Gross Profit is defined as U.S. Gas segment gross profit adjusted to exclude the City of Chicago reversal. U.S. Gas Base Gross Profit Margin is calculated by dividing U.S. Gas Base Gross Profit by U.S. Gas Base Revenue. Revenue derived from storm restoration services varies from period to period due to the unpredictable nature of weather-related events, and when this type of work is performed, it typically generates a higher profit margin than base infrastructure services projects due to higher contractual hourly rates given the nature of services provided and improved operating efficiencies related to equipment utilization and absorption of fixed costs. While storm restoration services remain a key capability of the Company, management believes its exclusion provides more suitable disclosures for evaluating fundamental business performance and for comparison purposes.
Using EBIT, Adjusted EBIT, and Adjusted EBITDA as performance measures has material limitations as compared to net income (loss), or other financial measures as defined under GAAP, as they exclude certain recurring items, which may be meaningful to investors. These metrics all exclude interest expense net of interest income; however, as we have borrowed money to finance transactions and operations, or invested available cash to generate interest income, interest expense and interest income are elements of our cost structure and can affect our ability to generate revenue and returns for our stockholders. Further, these metrics exclude income taxes; however, as we are organized as a corporation, the payment of
taxes is a necessary element of our operations. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes depreciation and amortization; however, as we use capital and intangible assets to generate revenue, depreciation and amortization are necessary elements of our costs and ability to generate revenue. As a result of these exclusions, the metrics from which they are excluded have material limitations compared to net income (loss). When using these metrics as a performance measure, management compensates for these limitations by comparing them to net income (loss) in each period, to allow for the comparison of the performance of the underlying core operations with the overall performance of the Company on a full-cost, after-tax basis.
As to certain of the items related to these non-GAAP measures: (i) non-cash stock-based compensation varies from period to period due to changes in the estimated fair value of performance-based awards, forfeitures and amounts granted; (ii) acquisition costs vary from period to period depending on the level of our acquisition activity; (iii) separation-related costs represent expenses incurred post-IPO in connection with the separation and stand up of Centuri as its own public company, including costs incurred in association with Southwest Gas Holdings' sale of its holdings of our common stock, which are not reflective of our ongoing operations and will not recur given that Centuri is fully separated from Southwest Gas Holdings; (iv) strategy implementation costs represent non-recurring consulting fees incurred in connection with implementing the Company’s new long-term strategy announced on May 6, 2026; (v) other professional fees are non-recurring costs associated with certain one-time events; and (vi) the City of Chicago reversal relates to a non-recurring reversal of revenue on a legacy contract.
The most comparable GAAP financial measures and information reconciling the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures are set forth below. We are unable to provide reconciliations for forward-looking non-GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts due to our inability to project non-recurring expenses and events. Such items could have a substantial impact on GAAP measures of the Company’s financial performance.
