WATSONVILLE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Granite Construction Incorporated (NYSE: GVA) today announced results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2020.
Fiscal Year 2020 Results
Fiscal year 2020 net loss totaled ($145.1) million, or ($3.18) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of ($60.2) million, or ($1.29) per diluted share, in the prior year. Adjusted net income(1) for fiscal year 2020 totaled $60.0 million, or $1.30 per diluted share, compared to an adjusted net loss of ($27.2) million, or ($0.58) per diluted share, in the prior year. Adjusted net income (loss) excludes transaction costs(2), amortization of debt discount, non-recurring legal and accounting investigation costs and non-cash impairment charges.
- Revenue increased 3.4% in 2020 to $3.6 billion, compared to $3.4 billion in the prior year.
- Gross profit increased 55.5% in 2020 to $344.8 million, compared to $221.7 million in the prior year.
- Selling, general & administrative (“SG&A”) expenses in 2020 were $353.3 million or 9.9% of revenue, compared to $308.0 million or 8.9% of revenue in the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to $35.6 million of non-recurring legal and accounting investigation fees.
- Adjusted EBITDA (1) increased to $189.7 million in 2020, compared to $71.7 million in the prior year.
- Committed and Award Projects (“CAP”) (3) totaled $4.3 billion, down 2.3% year-over-year. The year-over-year decrease in CAP reflects backlog burn of the Heavy Civil Operating Group Old Risk Portfolio(4) partially offset by successful pursuits of best-value procurement work.(5)
- Operating cash flow increased $157.0 million in 2020 to a Granite record $268.5 million, compared to $111.4 million in the prior year.
- Balance sheet remains strong with cash and marketable securities increasing $146.3 million in 2020 to $441.3 million, compared to $295.1 million in the prior year, while debt decreased $25.6 million to $338.8 million compared to $364.4 million in the prior year.
“Fiscal year 2020 was one of the most challenging years in Granite’s history as we navigated the pandemic and the Audit/Compliance Committee’s internal investigation,” said Kyle Larkin, Granite President. “Despite these challenges, our teams performed well, particularly in our vertically integrated businesses. Our continued focus on enhancing profit and cash flow produced record operating cash flow in 2020. Looking ahead, we remain committed to positioning our balance sheet and CAP for future growth and success. While we continue to manage risk in the Heavy Civil Operating Group, I am confident that we have established the appropriate parameters to not only execute on existing projects, but also rebuild the portfolio by prioritizing projects with an appropriate risk profile as we leverage federal, state and local infrastructure funding opportunities.”
Fourth Quarter 2020 Results
Results for the fourth quarter of 2020 were net income of $8.0 million, or $0.17 per diluted share compared to a net loss of ($19.4) million, or ($0.42) per diluted share, in the prior year. Adjusted net income(1) for the fourth quarter of 2020, which excludes transaction costs(2), amortization of debt discount and non-recurring legal and accounting investigation costs, was $18.8 million, or $0.41 per diluted share compared to an adjusted net loss of ($12.5) million, or ($0.27) per diluted share, in the prior year.
- Revenue increased 6.8% in the fourth quarter of 2020 to $945.6 million compared to $885.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2019.
- Gross profit increased to $106.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to $51.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2019.
- SG&A expenses in the fourth quarter of 2020 were $100.8 million or 10.7% of revenue, compared to $83.4 million or 9.4% of revenue in the fourth quarter of 2019. The increase was primarily attributable to non-recurring legal and accounting investigation fees.
- Adjusted EBITDA (1) increased to $56.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to $8.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2019.
(1) Adjusted net income (loss), adjusted diluted income (loss) per share, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”), EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP measures. Please refer to the description and reconciliation of non-GAAP measures in the attached tables.

For the fourth quarter of 2020, Transportation segment revenue increased year-over-year primarily driven by growth in California operations. Quarterly segment gross profit margin of 4.5% reflects progress working through the Heavy Civil Operating Group Old Risk Portfolio which offset the exceptional performance of the vertically-integrated businesses. In the fourth quarter, the Heavy Civil Operating Group Old Risk Portfolio recognized $107.1 million of revenue and a gross loss of ($22.4) million compared to revenue of $135.6 million and a gross loss of ($25.4) million for the fourth quarter of 2019.
For the year ended December 31, 2020, revenue and gross profit increases were driven by strength in the Company’s vertically-integrated businesses, which was partially offset by burn of the Heavy Civil Operating Group Old Risk Portfolio. In fiscal year 2020, the Heavy Civil Operating Group Old Risk Portfolio reported $458.6 million of revenue and a gross loss of ($102.9) million compared to revenue of $609.0 million and a gross loss of ($154.6) million for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Segment CAP decreased $0.3 billion year-over-year to $3.2 billion as Granite burned through its backlog of the Heavy Civil Operating Group Old Risk Portfolio.

For the fourth quarter of 2020, Water segment revenue was flat and gross profit increased year-over-year primarily due to the absence of significant project write downs experienced in the fourth quarter of 2019.
For the year ended December 31, 2020, Water segment revenue decreased due to project delays and limited crew availability attributable to COVID-19. Segment gross profit increased year-over-year due to the absence of significant project write downs experienced in 2019.

For the fourth quarter of 2020, Specialty segment revenue increased year-over-year driven by strong site development and renewable energy projects in both private and public markets. Segment reported gross profit for the quarter increased year-over-year, reflecting increased activity in the California operations and improved project execution compared to the fourth quarter of 2019.
For the fiscal year 2020, Specialty segment revenue decreased primarily due to COVID-19 headwinds. Segment gross profit for the fiscal year increased driven by strong project execution, partially offset by a write down related to disputed cost overruns on a tunneling project.
Specialty segment CAP increased $80.3 million year-over-year to $776.9 million, a record high, reflecting the results of the Company's relationships with private and public customers.

Non-GAAP Financial Information
The tables below contain financial information calculated other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Specifically, management believes that non-GAAP financial measures such as EBITDA and EBITDA margin are useful in evaluating operating performance and are regularly used by securities analysts, institutional investors and other interested parties, and that such supplemental measures facilitate comparisons between companies that have different capital and financing structures and/or tax rates. We are also providing additional non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted income (loss) before benefit from income taxes, adjusted provision for (benefit from) income taxes, adjusted net income (loss) attributable to Granite Construction Incorporated and adjusted diluted net income (loss) per share to indicate the impact of amortization of debt discount related to our convertible notes and non-recurring acquisition, integration, acquired intangible amortization expenses, acquisition related depreciation and synergy costs (collectively referred to as “transaction costs”) related to the acquisition of the Layne Christensen Company and LiquiForce and other significant non-recurring items as required. Acquisition and integration costs include external transaction costs, professional fees and internal travel. Synergy costs include expenses incurred which will be eliminated as the integration of Layne and LiquiForce is completed.
Management believes that these additional non-GAAP financial measures facilitate comparisons between industry peer companies and management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating the Company’s performance. However, the reader is cautioned that any non-GAAP financial measures provided by the Company are provided in addition to, and not as alternatives for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Items that may have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows must be considered when assessing the Company’s actual financial condition and performance regardless of whether these items are included in non-GAAP financial measures. The methods used by the Company to calculate its non-GAAP financial measures may differ significantly from methods used by other companies to compute similar measures. As a result, any non-GAAP financial measures provided by the Company may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA margin to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measure of net income (loss) attributable to Granite Construction Incorporated because the timing and amount of the excluded items are unreasonably difficult to fully and accurately estimate.

(1) Under U.S. GAAP, certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash on conversion are required to be separately accounted for as liability and equity components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate. Accordingly, the $230.0 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes that were issued in November 2019 (the “2.75 % Convertible Notes”), are separated into liability and equity components on the consolidated balance sheets. The equity component represents the excess of the $230.0 million principal amount of the 2.75% Convertible Notes over the carrying amount of the liability component (“debt discount”). We are amortizing the debt discount to interest expense using an effective interest rate of 6.62% over the expected life of the 2.75% Convertible Notes. |
