Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Orion Group Holdings reported second quarter 2026 revenue of $221.9 million, up 8% from $205.3 million a year earlier, driven by strong Concrete activity. GAAP results swung to a net loss of $4.1 million, or $(0.10) per diluted share, compared with net income of $0.8 million, or $0.02 per share, in 2025. Adjusted EBITDA declined to $7.9 million from $11.0 million, with an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 3.5% versus 5.3%. Adjusted EPS was $0.02, down from $0.07.
Backlog increased to $722 million at June 30, 2026 (Marine $554 million, Concrete $168 million), up from $640 million at December 31, 2025, supported by $277 million in quarterly awards and a 1.25x book-to-bill ratio. Management highlighted over 30% revenue growth and over 45% Adjusted EBITDA growth in the Concrete segment, while Marine performance was weaker due to timing of project start-ups and lower equipment utilization. As of quarter end, working capital was $92 million, unrestricted cash and cash equivalents were $2.5 million, and total debt was $99 million, including $76 million under the UMB Credit Facility. For full-year 2026, revenue guidance remains $900–$950 million, but Adjusted EBITDA guidance has been reduced to $50–$54 million from $54–$58 million and Adjusted EPS to $0.23–$0.30 from $0.36–$0.42, with capital expenditures still expected at $25–$35 million.
