NEWS RELEASE
For Immediate Release:
August 5, 2024
Sterling Reports Record Second Quarter 2024 Results and Raises Full Year Guidance
THE WOODLANDS, TX – August 5, 2024 – Sterling Infrastructure, Inc. (NasdaqGS: STRL) (“Sterling” or the “Company”) today announced financial results for the second quarter 2024.
The financial comparisons herein are to the prior year quarter, unless otherwise noted.
Second Quarter 2024 Results
•Revenues of $582.8 million, an increase of 12%
•Gross margin of 19.3%, an increase from 17.7%
•Net Income of $51.9 million, or $1.67 per diluted share, an increase of 31% for both metrics.
•EBITDA(1) of $87.0 million, an increase of 18%
•Cash flows from operations totaled $170.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024
•Cash and Cash Equivalents totaled $540.0 million at June 30, 2024
•Backlog at June 30, 2024 was $2.10 billion
•Combined backlog(2) at June 30, 2024 was $2.45 billion
CEO Remarks and Outlook
“Our second quarter results reflect the strength of our diversified portfolio, which delivered 12% revenue growth and a remarkable 31% increase in diluted EPS. Our ongoing focus on margin expansion continues to drive profitability growth that significantly outpaces revenue. Gross profit margins of 19.3% marked a new record, and we see opportunity for further expansion,” stated Joe Cutillo, Sterling’s Chief Executive Officer. “We closed the second quarter with combined backlog of $2.45 billion, a 2.2% increase from the prior year. Additionally, as our business continues to move toward large, multi-phase projects, our pipeline of high probability work that is not captured in any backlog metrics has grown to over $500 million, providing multi-year visibility. Our operating cash flow generation in the quarter was again excellent at $121 million, driving our net cash position to $211 million, and supporting share repurchases of $30 million in the quarter. Our business is performing very well and we feel great about the opportunities ahead.”
Mr. Cutillo continued, “In E-Infrastructure Solutions, we achieved 20% operating income growth as operating margins expanded over 480 basis points to reach 21.4%. This excellent margin profile reflects our shift toward large mission-critical projects, including data centers and manufacturing, and away from small commercial and warehouse work. While this rotation is impacting top line for the segment, which declined 7%, we believe this is the best and most efficient use of our resources as we work to optimize returns. Notably, data center-related revenue increased more than 100% in the quarter and now represents over 40% of segment backlog. For the full year, we anticipate strong E-Infrastructure Solutions operating profit growth approaching 20%.
Transportation Solutions had another excellent quarter, delivering 54% revenue growth and 57% operating profit growth. The transportation markets are the strongest that they have been in our company’s history, driving our expectation for very strong revenue and profitability growth in in 2024.
(1) See the “Non-GAAP Measures” and “EBITDA Reconciliation” sections below for more information.
(2) Combined Backlog includes Unsigned Awards of $347.2 million, $303.2 million and $657.2 million at June 30, 2024, December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively.

In Building Solutions, revenue declined 2% while operating profit grew 2%. Our residential concrete slab business was impacted by the heavy rainfall in Texas during the quarter and the availability of developed land. Our commercial business decline in the quarter was in line with our expectations and our plumbing business is performing very well. We expect Building Solutions to deliver operating profit growth in excess of 20% in 2024 as our mix continues to shift toward higher-margin offerings.”
“We believe 2024 will be another excellent year for Sterling. Given our strong first half results and backlog position, we are raising our full year guidance. The midpoint of our 2024 guidance would represent 11% revenue growth, 28% net income growth and 18% EBITDA growth,” Mr. Cutillo concluded.
Full Year 2024 Guidance
•Revenue of $2.150 billion to $2.225 billion
•Net Income of $175 million to $180 million
•Diluted EPS of $5.60 to $5.75
•EBITDA(1) of $300 million to $310 million

Important Information for Investors and Stockholders
Non-GAAP Measures
This press release contains “Non-GAAP” financial measures as defined under Regulation G of the amended U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company reports financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), but the Company believes that certain Non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors regarding the underlying business trends and performance of the Company’s ongoing operations and are useful for period-over-period comparisons of those operations.
Non-GAAP measures may include adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, in each case excluding the impacts of certain identified items. The excluded items represent items that the Company does not consider to be representative of its normal operations. The Company believes that these measures are useful for investors to review, because they provide a consistent measure of the underlying financial results of the Company’s ongoing business and, in the Company’s view, allow for a supplemental comparison against historical results and expectations for future performance. Furthermore, the Company uses each of these to measure the performance of the Company’s operations for budgeting and forecasting, as well as for determining employee incentive compensation. However, Non-GAAP measures should not be considered as substitutes for net income, EPS, or other data prepared and reported in accordance with GAAP and should be viewed in addition to the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Reconciliations of Non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measures are provided in the tables included within this press release.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains statements that are considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, which may include statements about: our business strategy; our financial strategy; our industry outlook; our guidance; our expected margin growth; and our plans, objectives, expectations, forecasts, outlook and intentions. All of these types of statements, other than statements of historical fact included in this press release, are forward-looking statements. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “project,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” “pursue,” “target,” “guidance,” “continue,” the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are largely based on our expectations, which reflect estimates and assumptions made by our management. These estimates and assumptions reflect our best judgment based on currently known market conditions and other factors. Although we believe such estimates and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently uncertain and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that are beyond our control. In addition, management’s assumptions about future events may prove to be inaccurate. Management cautions all readers that the forward-looking statements contained in this press release are not guarantees of future performance, and we cannot assure any reader that such statements will be realized or the forward-looking events and circumstances will occur. Actual results may differ materially from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements due to factors listed in the “Risk Factors” section in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and elsewhere in those filings. Additional factors or risks that we currently deem immaterial, that are not presently known to us or that arise in the future could also cause our actual results to differ materially from our expected results. Given these uncertainties, investors are cautioned that many of the assumptions upon which our forward-looking statements are based are likely to change after the date the forward-looking statements are made. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made, and we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements for any reason, whether as a result of new information, future events or developments, changed circumstances, or otherwise, notwithstanding any changes in our assumptions, changes in business plans, actual experience or other changes. These cautionary statements qualify all forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf.
