Latest analysis

Updated Oct 29, 2026

Granite Construction posts record Q3 2026 revenue of $1.77B and $7.5B CAP on acquisition-driven growth, while convertible note restructuring generates $541M other expense YTD and a net loss of $317M through nine months.

Granite Construction's Q3 2026 revenue reached $1.77 billion, with CAP holding at $7.5 billion supported by a strong public funding environment and private market strength. The operating story is sound — Construction segment gross margin expanded to 18.6% in Q3 versus 16.5% a year prior, and operating cash flow grew to $404.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026. However, the financial statements are dominated by non-cash and non-operating distortions from the 3.75% Convertible Notes restructuring, which generated $540.7 million of net other expense year-to-date and drove a net loss attributable to Granite of $316.7 million through nine months despite strong underlying construction performance.
