Under the Northwest Pipe Company brand, the Company is the largest manufacturer of engineered water transmission systems in North America and produces steel casing pipe, bar-wrapped concrete cylinder pipe, and pipeline system joints and fittings. The Company also provides solution-based products for a wide range of markets including high-quality reinforced precast concrete products and lined precast sanitary sewer system components, which are manufactured under the NWPX Geneva brand, as well as water distribution and management equipment including pump lift stations, wastewater pretreatment, and stormwater quality products through its NWPX Park brand.

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are expressed in United States Dollars and include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control as of the financial statement date. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain amounts from the prior year financial statements have been reclassified in order to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
The accompanying unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. The financial information as of December 31, 2024 is derived from the audited Consolidated Financial Statements presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (“2024 Form 10‑K”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the accounting standards for interim financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments necessary (which are of a normal and recurring nature) for the fair statement of the results of the interim periods presented. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto together with management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations contained in the Company’s 2024 Form 10‑K.
Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.
Company Name
The Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to change the corporate name of the Company from Northwest Pipe Company to NWPX Infrastructure, Inc. at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on June 12, 2025 (the “Name Change”). That same day, the Company effectuated the Name Change by filing an amendment of the Articles of Incorporation with the Oregon Secretary of State and amended and restated its Bylaws to reflect the Name Change.
At the same time, the Company renamed one of its two operating segments. The segment previously referred to as “Engineered Steel Pressure Pipe (SPP)” has been renamed “Water Transmission Systems (WTS)” to better reflect the value contribution specifically from the business unit’s capabilities in engineering, production execution, and delivery of critical integrated water pipeline systems. The “Precast Infrastructure and Engineered Systems (Precast)” segment name remains unchanged. This change in naming convention does not affect the composition of the segments or the basis of segment reporting, as there have been no changes to how the CODM manages or evaluates performance.

Fair Value Measurements |
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability, in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The authoritative guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. These levels are: Level 1 (inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities); Level 2 (inputs are other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data); and Level 3 (inputs are unobservable, with little or no market data that exists, such as internal financial forecasts). The Company is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The following table summarizes information regarding the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands):

The deferred compensation plan assets consist of cash and several publicly traded stock and bond mutual funds, valued using quoted market prices in active markets, classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy, as well as guaranteed investment contracts, valued at principal plus interest credited at contract rates, classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. Deferred compensation plan assets are included within Other assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps are derivatives valued using various pricing models or discounted cash flow analyses that incorporate observable market parameters, such as interest rate yield curves and currency rates, and are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. Derivative valuations incorporate credit risk adjustments that are necessary to reflect the probability of default by the counterparty or the Company. The foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps are presented at their gross fair values. The current portion of foreign currency forward contract and interest rate swap assets are included within Prepaid expenses and other and foreign currency forward contract and interest rate swap liabilities are included within Accrued liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The noncurrent portion of interest rate swap assets are included within Other assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The net carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The net carrying amount of the borrowings on the line of credit approximates fair value due to its variable interest rate based on current market rates. The Company is obligated to repay the carrying value of its long-term debt. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt is calculated using interest rates for its existing debt arrangements which are classified as Level 2 inputs within the fair value hierarchy. As of September 30, 2025, the fair value of the Company’s long-term debt approximates the carrying value due to its variable interest rate based on current market rates.

Share-based Compensation |
The Company has
The Company recognizes the compensation cost of employee and director services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments based on the grant date estimated fair value of the awards. The Company estimates the fair value of RSUs and PSAs using the value of the Company’s stock on the date of grant. Share-based compensation cost is recognized over the period during which the employee or director is required to provide service in exchange for the award and, as forfeitures occur, the associated compensation cost recognized to date is reversed. For awards with performance-based payout conditions, the Company recognizes compensation cost based on the probability of achieving the performance conditions, with changes in expectations recognized as an adjustment to earnings in the period of change. Any recognized compensation cost is reversed if the conditions are ultimately not met.

Commitments and Contingencies |
Portland Harbor Superfund Site
In 2000, a section of the lower Willamette River known as the Portland Harbor Superfund Site was included on the National Priorities List at the request of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”). While the Company’s Portland, Oregon manufacturing facility does not border the Willamette River, an outfall from the facility’s stormwater system drains into a neighboring property’s privately owned stormwater system and slip. Also in 2000, the Company was notified by the EPA and the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (“ODEQ”) of potential liability under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (“CERCLA”). A remedial investigation and feasibility study of the Portland Harbor Superfund Site was directed by a group of
The Company and the ODEQ have agreed to a monitored natural attenuation work plan designed to provide ongoing monitoring of shallow groundwater objectives established for the Company’s site. Regular testing has confirmed that natural attenuation is an effective form of controlling the release of contaminants into the Willamette River. Any future liabilities or other obligations associated with source control would be derived from observed failure to meet groundwater objectives, which are considered unlikely based on the Company’s pattern of successful testing results.
Concurrent with the activities of the EPA and the ODEQ, the Portland Harbor Natural Resources Trustee Council (“Trustees”) sent some or all of the same parties, including the Company, a notice of intent to perform a Natural Resource Damage Assessment (“NRDA”) for the Portland Harbor Superfund Site to determine the nature and extent of natural resource damages under CERCLA Section 107. The Trustees for the Portland Harbor Superfund Site consist of representatives from several Northwest Indian Tribes, three federal agencies, and one state agency. The Trustees act independently of the EPA and the ODEQ. The Trustees have encouraged PRPs to voluntarily participate in the funding of their injury assessments and several of those parties have agreed to do so. In 2014, the Company agreed to participate in the injury assessment process, which included funding $
In 2017, the Confederated Tribes and Bands of the Yakama Nation, a Trustee until they withdrew from the council in 2009, filed a complaint against the PRPs including the Company to recover costs related to their own injury assessment and compensation for natural resources damages. The case has been stayed, and the Company does not have sufficient information at this time to determine the likelihood of a loss in this matter or the amount of damages that could be allocated to the Company.
The Company has insurance policies for defense costs, as well as indemnification policies it believes will provide reimbursement for the remediation assessed. However, the Company can provide no assurance that those policies will cover all of the costs which the Company may incur.
All Sites
The Company operates its facilities under numerous governmental permits and licenses relating to air emissions, stormwater runoff, and other environmental matters. The Company’s operations are also governed by many other laws and regulations, including those relating to workplace safety and worker health, principally the Occupational Safety and Health Act and regulations thereunder which, among other requirements, establish noise and dust standards. The Company believes it is in material compliance with its permits and licenses and these laws and regulations, and the Company does not believe that future compliance with such laws and regulations will have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Other Contingencies and Legal Proceedings
From time to time, the Company is party to a variety of legal actions, including claims, suits, complaints, and investigations arising out of the ordinary course of its business. The Company maintains insurance coverage against potential claims in amounts that are believed to be adequate. To the extent that insurance does not cover legal, defense, and indemnification costs associated with a loss contingency, the Company records accruals when such losses are considered probable and reasonably estimable. The Company believes that it is not presently a party to legal actions, the outcomes of which would have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

Revenue |
The Company manufactures water infrastructure steel pipe products, which are generally made to custom specifications for installation contractors serving projects funded by public water agencies, as well as precast and reinforced concrete products. Generally, each of the Company’s contracts with its customers contains a single performance obligation, as the promise to transfer products is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contract and, therefore, is not distinct. The Company generally does not recognize revenue on a contract until the contract has approval and commitment from both parties, the contract rights and payment terms can be identified, the contract has commercial substance, and its collectability is probable.
WTS revenue for water infrastructure steel pipe products is recognized over time as the manufacturing process progresses because of the Company’s right to payment for work performed to date plus a reasonable profit on cancellations for unique products that have no alternative use to the Company. Revenue is measured by the costs incurred to date relative to the estimated total direct costs to fulfill each contract. Contract costs include all material, labor, and other direct costs incurred in satisfying the performance obligations. The cost of steel material is recognized as a contract cost when the steel is introduced into the manufacturing process. Changes in job performance, job conditions, and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract change orders, contract penalty provisions, foreign currency exchange rate movements, changes in raw materials costs, and final contract settlements may result in revisions to estimates of revenue, costs, and income, and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined. Provisions for losses on uncompleted contracts, included in Accrued liabilities, are estimated by comparing total estimated contract revenue to the total estimated contract costs and a loss is recognized during the period in which it becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated.
Net revisions in contract estimates resulted in an increase in WTS net sales of $
Precast revenue for water infrastructure concrete pipe and precast concrete products is recognized at the time control is transferred to customers which is generally at the time of shipment, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for the products. All variable considerations that may affect the total transaction price, including contractual discounts, returns, and credits, are included in net sales. Estimates for variable consideration are based on historical experience, anticipated performance, and management’s judgment. The Company’s contracts do not contain significant financing.
Disaggregation of Revenue
The following table disaggregates revenue by recognition over time or at a point in time, as the Company believes it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of its revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors (in thousands):

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities
Contract assets primarily represent revenue earned over time but not yet billable based on the terms of the contracts. These amounts will be billed based on the terms of the contracts, which can include certain milestones, partial shipments, or completion of the contracts. Payment terms of amounts billed vary based on the customer, but are typically due within 30 days of invoicing. Contract liabilities represent advance billings on contracts, typically for purchased steel.
The difference between the opening and closing balances of the Company’s contract assets and contract liabilities primarily results from the timing difference between the Company’s performance and billings.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was signed into law, extending key provisions of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act including, but not limited to, federal bonus depreciation and deductions for domestic research and development expenditures. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. The Company has evaluated the OBBBA enacted during the quarter and estimated its impact on the consolidated financial statements to be immaterial. The Company will continue to evaluate the full impact of these legislative changes as additional guidance becomes available.

Net Income per Share |
Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed by giving effect to all dilutive potential shares of common stock, including RSUs and PSAs, assumed to be outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. Performance-based PSAs are considered dilutive when the related performance conditions have been met assuming the end of the reporting period represents the end of the performance period. In periods with a net loss, all potential shares of common stock are excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as the impact would be antidilutive.
Net income per basic and diluted weighted-average common share outstanding was calculated as follows (in thousands, except per share and footnoted amounts):

Segment Information |
The operating segments reported below are based on the nature of the products sold and the manufacturing process used by the Company and are the segments of the Company for which discrete financial information is available and for which operating results are regularly evaluated by the Company’s CODM, its Chief Executive Officer.
The Company’s Water Transmission Systems (WTS) segment manufactures large-diameter, high-pressure steel pipeline systems for use in water infrastructure applications, which are primarily related to drinking water systems. These products are also used for hydroelectric power systems, wastewater systems, seismic resiliency, and other applications. In addition, WTS makes products for industrial plant piping systems and certain structural applications. WTS has manufacturing facilities located in Portland, Oregon; Adelanto and Tracy, California; Parkersburg, West Virginia; Saginaw, Texas; St. Louis, Missouri; and San Luis Río Colorado, Mexico.
The Company’s Precast Infrastructure and Engineered Systems (Precast) segment manufactures stormwater and wastewater technology products, high-quality precast and reinforced concrete products, including reinforced concrete pipe, manholes, box culverts, vaults, and catch basins, pump lift stations, oil water separators, biofiltration units, and other environmental and engineered solutions. Precast has manufacturing facilities located in Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio, Texas; and Orem, Salt Lake City, and St. George, Utah.
The CODM uses gross profit to assess performance of each segment by comparing actual gross profit results to historical results and previously forecasted financial information, and to determine allocation of operating and capital resources. The Company does not allocate selling, general, and administrative expenses, interest, other non-operating income or expense items, or taxes to segments, and there are no intersegment revenues. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.

Recent Accounting and Reporting Developments |
There have been no developments to recently issued accounting standards, including the expected dates of adoption and estimated effects on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and disclosures in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, from those disclosed in the Company’s 2024 Form 10‑K, except for the following.
Recent Accounting Standards
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023‑09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023‑09”) which improves the transparency, effectiveness, and comparability of income tax disclosures and allows investors to better assess, in their capital allocation decisions, how an entity’s worldwide operations and related tax risks and tax planning and operation opportunities affect its income tax rate and prospects for future cash flows. ASU 2023‑09 will be applied prospectively, and will be effective for the Company’s 2025 annual reporting, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements, other than additional disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
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” (“ASU 2024‑03”) which requires public business entities to disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements. ASU 2024‑03 is required to be applied prospectively, and will be effective for the Company’s 2027 annual reporting and for interim periods beginning in 2028. Early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements, other than additional disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025‑05, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets” (“ASU 2025‑05”) which provides a practical expedient permitting all entities to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset when developing reasonable and supportable forecasts as part of estimating expected credit losses. ASU 2025‑05 will be adopted prospectively and will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2026, including interim periods in 2026, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect a material impact to its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows from adoption of this guidance.

Subsequent Event |
The Company had two noncontributory defined benefit plans. Effective 2001, both plans were frozen and participants were fully vested in their accrued benefits as of the date each plan was frozen. In December 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the termination of its defined benefit plans, subject to approvals from the Internal Revenue Service and the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation. The termination was effective April 30, 2025. On September 30, 2025, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase annuity contracts to transfer its remaining obligations under the plans, which occurred on October 3, 2025. In connection with the plans’ termination, the Company expects to record a noncash pension settlement charge between $

Overview
NWPX Infrastructure, Inc., formerly known as Northwest Pipe Company, is a leading manufacturer of water-related infrastructure products, and operates in two segments, Water Transmission Systems (“WTS”), operating as the Northwest Pipe Company brand, and Precast Infrastructure and Engineered Systems (“Precast”), which includes the brands NWPX Geneva and NWPX Park. For detailed descriptions of these segments, see Note 12, “Segment Information” of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I – Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this 2025 Q3 Form 10‑Q.
Under our Northwest Pipe Company brand, we are the largest manufacturer of engineered water transmission systems in North America and produce steel casing pipe, bar-wrapped concrete cylinder pipe, and pipeline system joints and fittings. We also provide solution-based products for a wide range of markets including high-quality reinforced precast concrete products and lined precast sanitary sewer system components, which are manufactured under our NWPX Geneva brand, as well as water distribution and management equipment including pump lift stations, wastewater pretreatment, and stormwater quality products through our NWPX Park brand. Strategically positioned to meet growing water and wastewater infrastructure needs, our skilled team is committed to quality and innovation while upholding our core values of accountability, commitment, and teamwork. Headquartered in Vancouver, Washington, we operate 13 manufacturing facilities across North America.
Our water infrastructure products are sold generally to installation contractors, who include our products in their bids to federal, state, and municipal agencies, privately-owned water companies, or developers for specific projects. We believe our sales are substantially driven by spending on urban growth and new water infrastructure with a recent trend towards spending on water infrastructure replacement, repair, and upgrade. Within the total range of products, our steel pipe best addresses the larger-diameter, higher-pressure pipeline applications, while our precast concrete products mainly serve stormwater and sanitary sewer systems.
Company Name
Our shareholders approved an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to change our corporate name from Northwest Pipe Company to NWPX Infrastructure, Inc. at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on June 12, 2025 (the “Name Change”). That same day, we effectuated the Name Change by filing an amendment of our Articles of Incorporation with the Oregon Secretary of State and amended and restated our Bylaws to reflect the Name Change.
At the same time, we renamed one of our two operating segments. The segment previously referred to as “Engineered Steel Pressure Pipe (SPP)” has been renamed “Water Transmission Systems (WTS)” to better reflect the value contribution specifically from our business unit’s capabilities in engineering, production execution, and delivery of critical integrated water pipeline systems. The “Precast Infrastructure and Engineered Systems (Precast)” segment name remains unchanged. This change in naming convention does not affect the composition of the segments or the basis of segment reporting, as there have been no changes to how our chief operating decision maker manages or evaluates performance.
Our Current Economic Environment
Demand for our Precast products is generally influenced by general economic conditions such as housing starts, population growth, interest rates, and rates of inflation. According to the United States Census Bureau, privately-owned housing starts were at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.3 million in August 2025 and 1.5 million in December 2024, and the population of the United States is expected to increase by approximately 2 million people in 2025. While the housing market has softened recently and the current elevated federal funds rate could temper demand for our precast products, we continue to see steady demand in Texas and Utah which are two of the four states in the United States with the highest capital expenditures per capita according to the June 2025 Bluefield Research Insight Report – U.S. & Canada Water & Wastewater Pipe CAPEX Forecasts, 2025-2035 and the states in which our Precast manufacturing facilities are located.

Gross profit. Gross profit increased 19.0% to $32.2 million (21.3% of net sales) in the third quarter of 2025 compared to $27.0 million (20.8% of net sales) in the third quarter of 2024 and increased 5.4% to $76.9 million (19.2% of net sales) in the first nine months of 2025 compared to $73.0 million (19.6% of net sales) in the first nine months of 2024.
WTS gross profit increased 33.0% to $22.1 million (21.3% of WTS net sales) in the third quarter of 2025 compared to $16.6 million (19.4% of WTS net sales) in the third quarter of 2024 due to increased volume, including related operational efficiency gains, and changes in product mix. WTS gross profit increased 3.1% to $49.3 million (18.5% of WTS net sales) in the first nine months of 2025 compared to $47.9 million (18.7% of WTS net sales) in the first nine months of 2024 due to increased selling prices.
Precast gross profit decreased 3.4% to $10.0 million (21.3% of Precast net sales) in the third quarter of 2025 compared to $10.4 million (23.5% of Precast net sales) in the third quarter of 2024 primarily due to changes in product mix. Precast gross profit increased 9.6% to $27.5 million (20.6% of Precast net sales) in the first nine months of 2025 compared to $25.1 million (21.4% of Precast net sales) in the first nine months of 2024 primarily due to increased volume shipped.
Selling, general, and administrative expense. Selling, general, and administrative expense increased 13.2% to $13.1 million (8.7% of net sales) in the third quarter of 2025 compared to $11.6 million (8.9% of net sales) in the third quarter of 2024 primarily due to $0.8 million in higher incentive compensation expense and $0.7 million in higher base compensation and benefits expense. Selling, general, and administrative expense increased 10.8% to $39.0 million (9.7% of net sales) in the first nine months of 2025 compared to $35.2 million (9.5% of net sales) in the first nine months of 2024 primarily due to $2.1 million in higher base compensation and benefits expense and $1.9 million in higher incentive compensation expense, partially offset by $0.5 million in lower professional fees.
Income taxes. Income tax expense was $4.7 million in the third quarter of 2025 (an effective income tax rate of 26.0%) compared to $3.7 million in the third quarter of 2024 (an effective income tax rate of 26.3%) and was $9.1 million in the first nine months of 2025 (an effective income tax rate of 25.6%) compared to $8.6 million in the first nine months of 2024 (an effective income tax rate of 26.3%). The estimated effective income tax rates for the third quarter of 2025 and the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 were primarily impacted by non-deductible permanent differences. The estimated effective income tax rate for the first nine months of 2025 were primarily impacted by non-deductible permanent differences, partially offset by the tax windfalls recognized upon the vesting of equity awards. The estimated effective income tax rate can change significantly depending on the relationship of permanent income tax differences to estimated pre-tax income or loss. Accordingly, the comparison of estimated effective income tax rates between periods is not meaningful in all situations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources and Uses of Cash
Our principal sources of liquidity generally include operating cash flows and our credit agreement. From time to time our long-term capital needs may be met through the issuance of additional debt or equity. Our principal uses of liquidity generally include capital expenditures, working capital, organic growth initiatives, acquisitions, share repurchases, and debt service. Information regarding our cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 are presented in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows contained in Part I – Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this 2025 Q3 Form 10‑Q, and are further discussed below.
As of September 30, 2025, our working capital (current assets minus current liabilities) was $198.5 million compared to $187.4 million as of December 31, 2024. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $2.7 million and $5.0 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Fluctuations in WTS working capital accounts result from timing differences between production, shipment, invoicing, and collection, as well as changes in levels of production and costs of materials. We typically have a relatively large investment in working capital, as we generally pay for materials, labor, and other production costs in the initial stages of a project, while payments from our customers are generally received after finished product is delivered. A portion of our revenues are recognized over time as the manufacturing process progresses; therefore, cash receipts typically occur subsequent to when revenue is recognized and the elapsed time between when revenue is recorded and when cash is received can be significant. As such, our payment cycle is a significantly shorter interval than our collection cycle, although the effect of this difference in the cycles may vary by project, and from period to period.
As of September 30, 2025, we had $27.6 million of outstanding revolving loan borrowings, $12.2 million of outstanding long-term debt, $92.2 million of operating lease liabilities, and $6.7 million of finance lease liabilities. As of December 31, 2024, we had $24.7 million of outstanding revolving loan borrowings, $14.5 million of outstanding long-term debt, $90.7 million of operating lease liabilities, and $6.8 million of finance lease liabilities.
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $31.3 million in the first nine months of 2025 compared to $18.9 million in the first nine months of 2024. Net income, adjusted for noncash items, provided $51.3 million of operating cash flow in the first nine months of 2025 compared to $47.2 million of operating cash flow in the first nine months of 2024. The net change in working capital used $20.0 million of operating cash flow in the first nine months of 2025 compared to $28.3 million in the first nine months of 2024.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $14.9 million in the first nine months of 2025 compared to $16.5 million in the first nine months of 2024. Capital expenditures were $15.0 million in the first nine months of 2025 compared to $16.6 million in the first nine months of 2024, which includes $1.1 million in the first nine months of 2025 and $1.7 million in the first nine months of 2024 of investment in our new reinforced concrete pipe mill, $0.3 million in the first nine months of 2025 and $4.5 million in the first nine months of 2024 for the construction of a building at our Salt Lake City, Utah facility for the new mill, $1.4 million in the first nine months of 2025 for the catch basin machine in the Orem, Utah facility, and the remainder primarily for standard capital replacement. We currently expect capital expenditures in 2025 to be approximately $19 million to $22 million, which includes approximately $2 million of investment in our new reinforced concrete pipe mill and associated ancillary equipment, $1 million for the catch basin machine in the Orem, Utah facility, and the remainder primarily for standard capital replacement.
Net Cash Used in Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $18.7 million in the first nine months of 2025 compared to $0.7 million in the first nine months of 2024. Net borrowings on the line of credit were $3.0 million in the first nine months of 2025 compared to $6.2 million in the first nine months of 2024. Net payments on other debt were $2.3 million in the first nine months of 2025. No payments on other debt were made in the first nine months of 2024. Repurchases of common stock were $15.7 million in the first nine months of 2025 compared to $4.4 million in the first nine months of 2024.
We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents, cash flows expected to be generated by operations, and additional borrowing capacity under our credit agreement and other loans will be adequate to fund our working capital, debt service, capital expenditure requirements, and share repurchases for the foreseeable future. To the extent necessary, we may also satisfy capital requirements through additional bank borrowings, senior notes, term notes, subordinated debt, and finance and operating leases, if such resources are available on satisfactory terms. We have from time to time evaluated and continue to evaluate opportunities for acquisitions and expansion. Any such transactions, if consummated, may necessitate additional bank borrowings or other sources of funding.
On December 4, 2023, our shelf registration statement on Form S‑3 (Registration No. 333‑275691) covering the potential future sale of up to $150 million of our equity and/or debt securities or combinations thereof, was declared effective by the SEC. This shelf registration statement, which replaced the registration statement on Form S‑3 that expired on November 3, 2023, provides another potential source of capital, in addition to other alternatives already in place. We cannot be certain that funding will be available on favorable terms or available at all. To the extent that we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our shareholders may experience significant dilution. As of the date of this 2025 Q3 Form 10‑Q, we have not yet sold any securities under this registration statement, nor do we have an obligation to do so. Please refer to the factors discussed in Part I – Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our 2024 Form 10‑K.
On November 2, 2023, we announced our authorization of a share repurchase program of up to $30 million of our outstanding common stock. The program does not commit to any particular timing or quantity of purchases, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Under the program, shares may be purchased in open market, including through plans adopted pursuant to Rule 10b5‑1 of the Exchange Act, or in privately negotiated transactions administered by our broker. At this time, we have elected to limit our share repurchase transactions to only those transactions made under Rule 10b5‑1 trading plans, which we believe consider our liquidity, including availability of borrowings and covenant compliance under our credit agreement, and other capital allocation priorities of the business. For details regarding our Rule 10b5‑1 trading plans and share repurchase program, see Note 6, “Stockholders’ Equity” of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I – Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this 2025 Q3 Form 10‑Q. Please refer to the factors discussed in Part I – Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our 2024 Form 10‑K.
Credit Agreement
The Credit Agreement dated June 30, 2021 with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), as administrative agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto, including the initial sole lender, Wells Fargo (the “Lenders”), as amended by the Incremental Amendment dated October 22, 2021, the Second Amendment to Credit Agreement dated April 29, 2022, the Third Amendment to Credit Agreement dated June 29, 2023, and the Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement and Ratification of Loan Documents dated August 13, 2025 (together, the “Amended Credit Agreement”) provides for a revolving loan, swingline loan, and letters of credit in the aggregate amount of up to $125 million (“Revolver Commitment”), with an option for us to increase that amount by $50 million, subject to provisions of the Amended Credit Agreement. The Amended Credit Agreement will expire, and all obligations outstanding will mature, on August 13, 2030. We may prepay outstanding amounts at our discretion without penalty at any time, subject to applicable notice requirements. As of September 30, 2025 under the Amended Credit Agreement, we had $27.6 million of outstanding revolving loan borrowings, $1.6 million of outstanding letters of credit, and additional borrowing capacity of approximately $96 million.
Revolving loans under the Amended Credit Agreement bear interest at rates related to, at our option and subject to the provisions of the Amended Credit Agreement, either: (i) Base Rate (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) plus the Applicable Margin; (ii) Adjusted Daily Simple Secured Overnight Finance Rate (“SOFR”) (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) plus the Applicable Margin; or (iii) Adjusted Term SOFR (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) plus the Applicable Margin. The “Applicable Margin” is 0.50% to 2.00%, depending on our Consolidated Senior Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) and the interest rate option chosen. Interest on outstanding revolving loans is payable monthly in arrears. Swingline loans under the Amended Credit Agreement bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. As of September 30, 2025, the weighted-average interest rate for outstanding borrowings was 5.84%. The Amended Credit Agreement requires the payment of a commitment fee of between 0.20% and 0.25%, based on the amount by which the Revolver Commitment exceeds the average daily balance of outstanding borrowings (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement). Such fee is payable monthly in arrears. We are also obligated to pay additional fees customary for credit facilities of this size and type.
The letters of credit outstanding as of September 30, 2025 relate to workers’ compensation insurance and a public improvement project. Based on the nature of these arrangements and our historical experience, we do not expect to make any material payments under these arrangements.
The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, as well as customary affirmative and negative covenants, events of default, and indemnification provisions in favor of the Lenders. The negative covenants include restrictions regarding the incurrence of liens and indebtedness, annual capital expenditures, certain investments, acquisitions, and dispositions, and other matters, all subject to certain exceptions. The Amended Credit Agreement requires us to regularly provide financial information to Wells Fargo and to maintain a consolidated senior leverage ratio no greater than 3.00 to 1.00 (subject to certain exceptions) and a minimum consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) of at least $35 million for the four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended. Pursuant to the Amended Credit Agreement, we have also agreed that we will not sell, assign, or otherwise dispose or encumber, any of our owned real property. The occurrence of an event of default could result in the acceleration of the obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement. We were in compliance with our financial covenants as of September 30, 2025, and expect to continue to be in compliance in the near term.
Our obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement are secured by a senior security interest in substantially all of our and our subsidiaries’ assets.
Long-term Debt
On October 28, 2024, we converted the outstanding balance of the Interim Funding Agreement dated August 2, 2022 with Wells Fargo Equipment Finance, Inc. (“WFEF”), as amended January 23, 2023, March 15, 2023, July 21, 2023, and November 2, 2023 into a $15 million term loan with WFEF that was used to fund our new reinforced concrete pipe mill. The term loan matures on October 28, 2029, bears interest at the SOFR Average plus 2.22%, is payable in monthly installments of $0.3 million plus accrued interest, and is secured by the pipe mill. As of September 30, 2025, the outstanding balance of the term loan was $12.2 million and the weighted-average interest rate for outstanding borrowings was 6.58%. The term loan may be prepaid in full at any time provided that we pay a prepayment fee equal to 2% of the outstanding principal balance if repaid in the first 30 months of the loan.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
For a description of recent accounting pronouncements affecting our Company, including the dates of adoption and estimated effects on financial position, results of operations, and cash flows, see Note 13, “Recent Accounting and Reporting Developments” of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I – Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this 2025 Q3 Form 10‑Q.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I – Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this 2025 Q3 Form 10‑Q, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate all of our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, goodwill, income taxes, and litigation and other contingencies. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the critical accounting estimates disclosed in our 2024 Form 10‑K.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
For a discussion of our market risk associated with commodity prices, interest rates, and foreign currency exchange rates, see Part II – Item 7A. “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our 2024 Form 10‑K.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a‑15(e) and 15d‑15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our CEO and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2025. As a result of the assessment, our CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of September 30, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2025 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Part II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are party to a variety of legal actions arising out of the ordinary course of business. Plaintiffs occasionally seek punitive or exemplary damages. We do not believe that such normal and routine litigation will have a material impact on our consolidated financial results. We are also involved in other kinds of legal actions, some of which assert or may assert claims or seek to impose fines, penalties, and other costs in substantial amounts. See Note 8, “Commitments and Contingencies” of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I – Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this 2025 Q3 Form 10‑Q.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information set forth in this 2025 Q3 Form 10‑Q, the factors discussed in Part I – Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our 2024 Form 10‑K and any subsequently filed quarterly reports on Form 10‑Q could materially affect our business, financial condition, or operating results. The risks described in our 2024 Form 10‑K and subsequent Form 10‑Q’s are not the only risks facing us. There are additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial, that may also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, or operating results.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
On November 2, 2023, we announced our authorization of a share repurchase program of up to $30 million of our outstanding common stock. The program does not commit to any particular timing or quantity of purchases, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Under the program, shares may be purchased in open market, including through plans adopted pursuant to Rule 10b5‑1 of the Exchange Act, or in privately negotiated transactions administered by our broker. At this time, we have elected to limit our share repurchase transactions to only those transactions made under Rule 10b5‑1 trading plans, which we believe consider our liquidity, including availability of borrowings and covenant compliance under our credit agreement, and other capital allocation priorities of the business. For details regarding our Rule 10b5‑1 trading plans and share repurchase program, see Note 6, “Stockholders’ Equity” of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I – Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this 2025 Q3 Form 10‑Q.

Subsequent to September 30, 2025, through October 28, 2025, we repurchased approximately 25,000 shares at an average price of $51.95 per share for a total purchase price of $1.3 million pursuant to a Rule 10b5‑1 trading plan, thereby reducing the remaining share repurchase availability to $7.8 million under our share repurchase program.
Item 5. Other Information
