ITEM 1. BUSINESS
General
Tutor Perini Corporation (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “Tutor Perini,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our,” unless the context indicates otherwise) is a leading construction company offering diversified general contracting, construction management and design-build services to private customers and public agencies throughout the world. The Company was formed through the 2008 merger between Tutor-Saliba Corporation and Perini Corporation (“Perini”) and our legacy dates to 1894, when Perini's predecessor businesses began providing construction services. Our corporate headquarters are in Los Angeles (Sylmar), California, and we have various other principal offices throughout the United States and its territories (see Item 2. Properties for a listing of our major facilities). Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “TPC.” We are incorporated in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
We are a recognized leader in the construction industry and have built a solid reputation for executing large, complex projects while adhering to strict safety and quality control standards. We offer general contracting, pre-construction planning and comprehensive project management services, and have strong expertise in planning and delivering design-bid-build, design-build, construction management, and public-private partnership (P3) projects. We often utilize our resources and capabilities to self-perform multiple components of our projects, including earthwork, excavation, concrete forming and placement, steel erection, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), and fire protection. During 2025, we performed work on approximately 1,600 construction projects.
We are recognized as one of the leading civil contractors in the United States, as evidenced by our performance on several of the country’s largest mass-transit and transportation projects, such as Newark Liberty International Airport’s AirTrain Replacement project and new Terminal A (“Newark Airport Terminal A”), various components of the East Side Access project, along with the Midtown Bus Terminal Replacement - Phase 1 project, and the Manhattan Tunnel project, all in New York, the Minneapolis Southwest Light Rail project (also known as the METRO Green Line Extension), the California High-Speed Rail System, the Alaskan Way Viaduct Replacement (the “SR 99”) project in Seattle, major portions of the Red Line and Purple Line subway segments of the Los Angeles Metro system, the San Francisco Central Subway extension to Chinatown, and the City Center Guideway and Stations project in Hawaii. We are also recognized as one of the major building contractors in the United States, as evidenced by our performance on several of the country’s largest building development projects, including Hudson Yards and the new Brooklyn and Manhattan Jail projects in New York City, the CityCenter complex and the Cosmopolitan Resort and Casino, both in Las Vegas, as well as several major technology, healthcare and educational facilities in California for prominent customers.
Our strengths and expertise in the construction of civil and building infrastructure projects have been augmented by our vertical integration capabilities, which we established more than a decade ago through the acquisitions of various business entities specializing in electrical, mechanical, plumbing, HVAC and other services that enhance our market capabilities and expand our geographic presence. Our vertical integration capabilities, which also involve close interactions between our Civil and Building segment resources on large, complex projects, are a competitive advantage that allow us to self-perform a greater amount of work than our competitors. These capabilities also increase our competitiveness in bidding and our efficiency in managing and executing large projects, and provide us with significant cross-selling opportunities across a broad geographic footprint.

Business Segment Overview
Our business is conducted through three segments: Civil, Building and Specialty Contractors.
Civil Segment
Our Civil segment specializes in public works construction and the replacement and reconstruction of infrastructure across several major geographic regions of the United States. Our civil contracting services include construction and rehabilitation of highways, bridges, tunnels, mass-transit systems, military and other government facilities, and water management and wastewater treatment facilities.
The Civil segment is composed of the heavy civil construction operations of Tutor Perini and its subsidiaries, Black Construction, Frontier-Kemper Constructors (“Frontier-Kemper”), Lunda Construction and Becho. Our heavy civil units operate primarily on the West and East Coasts of the United States and are engaged in a variety of large mass-transit, tunneling, bridge and highway projects. Black Construction is the largest contractor in Guam and provides a variety of predominantly heavy civil, building, mechanical and electrical construction services throughout the Asia-Pacific region and in other strategic military locations. Frontier-Kemper is a heavy civil contractor engaged in the construction of tunnels for highways, railroads, subways and rapid transit systems; the construction of shafts and other facilities for water supply, wastewater transport and hydroelectric projects; and the development and equipping of mines with innovative hoisting, elevator and vertical conveyance systems. Lunda Construction is a heavy civil contractor specializing in the construction, rehabilitation and maintenance of bridges, railroads and other civil structures throughout the United States. Becho is engaged in drilling, foundation and excavation support for shoring, bridges, piers, roads and highway projects, primarily in the southwestern United States.
Our Civil segment’s customers primarily award contracts through one of two methods: the traditional public “competitive bid” method, in which price is the major determining factor, or through a best value proposal, where contracts are awarded based on a combination of technical qualifications, proposed project team, schedule, past performance on similar projects and price.
Traditionally, our Civil segment’s customers require each contractor to pre-qualify for construction business by meeting criteria that include technical capabilities and financial strength. Our financial strength, outstanding record of performance on challenging civil works projects, and vertical integration capabilities often enable us to pre-qualify for projects in situations where smaller, less diversified contractors are unable to meet the qualification requirements. We believe this is a competitive advantage that allows us to self-perform a greater amount of work and makes us an ideal lead contractor for the largest, most complex infrastructure projects and on prestigious design-build, design-build-operate-maintain and public-private partnership projects.
We have been active in civil construction since 1894 and believe we have a particular expertise in large, complex civil construction projects. We are currently working on or have completed some of the most significant civil construction projects in the United States. For example, we are working on the first phase of the California High-Speed Rail project, the Purple Line Segments 2 and 3 subway expansion projects in Los Angeles, the Minneapolis Southwest Light Rail project, the City Center Guideway and Stations project in Honolulu, and the Midtown Bus Terminal Replacement, the Newark AirTrain Replacement, and the Kensico-Eastview Connection Tunnel projects, all in New York. In addition, we have completed other major projects, including various components of the East Side Access project in New York City; the Newark Airport Terminal A project; the San Francisco Central Subway extension to Chinatown; the SR 99 project in Seattle; the platform over the eastern rail yard at Hudson Yards in New York City; the rehabilitation of the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge in New York City; and runway reconstruction projects at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York, Los Angeles International Airport and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport.
We believe the Civil segment provides us with significant opportunities for growth due to the condition of existing infrastructure coupled with large government funding sources dedicated to the replacement and reconstruction of aging U.S. infrastructure. In addition, infrastructure programs generally garner popular, bipartisan support from the public and elected officials due to their lasting economic benefits, including significant job creation. Funding for major Civil segment infrastructure projects is typically provided through a combination of one or more of the following: local, regional, state and federal loans and grants; other direct allocations sourced through tax revenue; bonds; user fees; and, for certain projects, private capital.

The bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (the “Bipartisan Infrastructure Law”) was enacted into law in November 2021 and provided for $1.2 trillion of federal infrastructure funding, including $550 billion in new spending for improvements to the country’s surface-transportation network and enhancements to core infrastructure. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law initiated the largest federal investment in public transit ever, the single largest dedicated bridge investment since the construction of the interstate highway system and the largest federal investment in passenger rail since the creation of Amtrak, all in addition to providing for regular annual spending for numerous infrastructure projects. This significant incremental funding is anticipated to be spent over the 10 years from its enactment through 2031, and much of it is allocated for investment in end markets that are directly aligned with our market focus. Accordingly, we believe that this significant funding has benefited, and will continue to favorably impact, our current work and prospective opportunities over the next decade. While the current funding window for the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law closes on September 30, 2026, we believe that Congress recognizes the long-term nature of infrastructure work and is already engaged in the legislative process to secure future funding beyond that date, although any amount and composition of such future funding is yet to be determined. In addition, various existing projects and future project opportunities in Guam and the Indo-Pacific region are being funded by the U.S. government’s Pacific Deterrence Initiative, which provides substantial multi-year funding to support significant improvements that enhance the U.S. military’s infrastructure and readiness.
Building Segment
Our Building segment has significant experience providing services to several specialized building markets for private and public works customers, including hospitality and gaming, transportation, healthcare, commercial offices, government facilities, sports and entertainment, education, correctional and detention facilities, biotech, pharmaceutical, industrial and technology. We believe the success of the Building segment results from our proven ability to manage and perform large, complex projects with aggressive fast-track schedules, elaborate designs, and advanced mechanical, electrical and life safety systems, while providing accurate budgeting and strict quality control. We believe our strong reputation, long-standing customer relationships, competitive pricing and significant level of repeat and referral business have enabled us to achieve a leading position in the marketplace.
We are a recognized leader in the hospitality and gaming market, specializing in the construction of high-end resorts and casinos. We work with hotel operators, Native American tribal councils, developers and architectural firms to provide diversified construction services to meet the challenges of new construction and renovation of hotel and resort properties. We believe that our reputation for completing projects on time is a significant competitive advantage in this market, as any delay in project completion could result in significant loss of revenue for the customer.
The Building segment is composed of several operating units that provide general contracting, design-build, preconstruction and construction services in various regions of the United States. Rudolph and Sletten, one of our general contracting firms, focuses on large, complex projects in California in the healthcare, commercial office, technology, industrial, education, and government facilities markets. Tutor Perini Building Corp. focuses on large, complex building projects nationwide, including significant projects in the hospitality and gaming, commercial office, education, government facilities, and multi-unit residential markets. Roy Anderson Corp. provides general contracting services, including major disaster response and reconstruction support, to public and private customers primarily throughout the southeastern United States. Perini Management Services provides diversified construction and design-build services internationally to U.S. government agencies, as well as to surety companies and multi-national corporations.
We are currently working on or have completed various large private and public building projects across a wide array of end markets. Specific projects include the Brooklyn and Manhattan Jail projects in New York City; Newark Airport Terminal A; the LAX/Metro Transit Center Station in Los Angeles, California; three large corporate office buildings in northern California for prominent technology companies; a commercial office tower and a multi-unit residential tower, both at Hudson Yards in New York City; the Cedars-Sinai Replacement Hospital in Marina Del Rey, California; the UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital in Oakland, California; various Kaiser Permanente hospital buildings throughout California; the Choctaw Casino and Resort in Durant, Oklahoma; the Pechanga Resort and Casino expansion in Temecula, California; and courthouses in San Bernardino and San Diego, California, and in Miami, Florida. As a result of our reputation and track record, we were previously awarded and completed contracts for several marquee hospitality and gaming projects in Las Vegas, including the CityCenter complex, the Cosmopolitan Resort and Casino and the Wynn Encore Hotel. These projects span a wide array of building end markets and illustrate our Building segment’s résumé of successfully completed large-scale public and private projects.

Specialty Contractors Segment
Our Specialty Contractors segment specializes in electrical, mechanical, plumbing, HVAC and fire protection systems for a full range of civil and building construction projects in the industrial, commercial, hospitality and gaming, and mass-transit end markets. This segment provides unique strengths and vertically integrated service capabilities that position us as a full-service contractor with greater control over project bids and costs, scheduled work, project delivery and risk management. A significant portion of the segment's work has been, and is expected to continue to be, performed for our Civil and Building segments, although the segment also continues to contract directly with state and local municipal agencies, real estate developers, school districts and other commercial and industrial customers.
The Specialty Contractors segment is composed of several operating units that provide unique services in various regions of the United States. Five Star Electric (“Five Star”) is an industry leader and one of the largest electrical contractors in the greater New York City metropolitan region. Five Star provides construction services, including power, lighting, fire alarm, security, telecommunications, low voltage and wireless systems to both the public and private sectors. These services are provided across end markets that include multi-unit residential, hotels, commercial offices, industrial, mass-transit, education, retail, sports and entertainment, healthcare and water treatment. Fisk Electric (“Fisk”) covers many of the major commercial, transportation and industrial electrical construction markets in the southwestern and southern United States, with the ability to cover other attractive markets nationwide. Fisk’s expertise is in the design and development of electrical and technology systems for major projects spanning a broad variety of project types, including commercial office buildings, sports arenas, hospitals, research laboratories, hotels and casinos, convention centers, manufacturing plants, refineries, and water and wastewater treatment facilities. WDF, Nagelbush and Desert Mechanical each provide mechanical, plumbing, HVAC and fire protection services to a range of customers in a wide variety of markets, including transportation, commercial offices, industrial, education and residential. WDF is one of the largest mechanical contractors serving the greater New York City metropolitan region. Nagelbush operates primarily in Florida and Desert Mechanical operates primarily in the western United States.
Our Specialty Contractors business units are currently working on or have completed various components of the East Side Access project in New York City, upgrades and rehabilitations at various New York City public housing facilities, and various projects at the World Trade Center and at Hudson Yards in New York City. The Specialty Contractors segment is also currently supporting or has supported several large projects in our Civil and Building segments, including the Brooklyn and Manhattan Jail projects in New York City; the Purple Line Segments 2 and 3 subway expansion projects in Los Angeles; Newark Airport Terminal A; the California High Speed Rail project in central California; the SR 99 project in Seattle; the San Francisco Central Subway extension to Chinatown; McCarran International Airport Terminal 3 in Las Vegas; and several marquee hospitality and gaming projects in Las Vegas, including the CityCenter complex, the Cosmopolitan Resort and Casino, and the Wynn Encore Hotel.
For information regarding the breakdown of our revenue by segment, end market, customer type and contract type, see Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, financial information about geographic areas is discussed in Note 14 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Backlog
Backlog in our industry is a measure of the total value of work that is remaining to be performed on projects that have been awarded. We include a construction project in our backlog when a contract is awarded or when we have otherwise received written definitive notice that the project has been awarded to us and there are no remaining major uncertainties that the project will proceed (e.g., adequate funding is in place). As a result, we believe our backlog is firm, and although cancellations or scope adjustments may occur, historically they have not been material. We estimate that approximately $6 billion, or approximately 29%, of our backlog as of December 31, 2025 will be recognized as revenue in 2026. Our backlog by segment, end market, customer type and contract type is presented in the following tables:

Fixed price contracts, particularly with federal, state and local government customers, are expected to continue to represent a sizable percentage of total backlog.
Competition
While the construction markets include numerous competitors, especially for small to mid-sized projects, much of the work that we target is for larger, more complex projects where there are typically fewer active market participants due to the greater capabilities and resources required to perform the work. We believe that our experience, reputation, responsiveness, customer relationships, project completion track record, schedule control, risk management, safety and quality of work are key factors customers consider when awarding contracts.
We have seen diminished competition in recent years for large, fixed-price civil infrastructure projects as fewer firms have been pursuing such projects and customers have at times had to make concerted efforts to attract bidders. In our Civil segment, we primarily compete with large civil construction firms, including (alphabetically) FlatironDragados USA; Kiewit Corporation; Lane Construction Corporation; OHL USA; Skanska USA; and The Walsh Group. In our Building segment, we compete with a variety of national and regional contractors, including (alphabetically) AECOM (through its past acquisitions of Tishman Construction and Hunt Construction Group); Balfour Beatty Construction; Clark Construction Group; DPR Construction; Gilbane, Inc.; Hensel Phelps Construction Co.; McCarthy Building Companies, Inc.; M. A. Mortenson Company; PCL Constructors, Inc.; Skanska USA; Suffolk Construction; Swinerton, Inc; Turner Construction Company; and The Whiting-Turner Contracting Co. In our Specialty Contractors segment, we compete principally with various regional and local electrical, mechanical and plumbing subcontractors.
Construction Costs
We strive to eliminate or minimize exposure to labor and material price increases in our project bids and the manner in which we execute our work. Generally, if prices for materials, labor or equipment increase excessively, provisions in certain types of contracts often shift all or a major portion of any adverse impact to the customer. In our fixed price contracts, we attempt to insulate ourselves from the unfavorable effects of inflation, when possible, by incorporating escalating wage and price assumptions into our construction cost estimates, by obtaining firm fixed price quotes from major subcontractors and material suppliers, by securing purchase commitments for materials early in the project schedule and by including contingency for these risks in our bid price. Construction and other materials used in our construction activities are generally available locally from multiple sources. Labor resources for our domestic projects are largely obtained through various labor unions. We have not experienced significant labor shortages in recent years, nor do we expect to in the near future.
Seasonality
We experience seasonal trends in our business. Our revenue and operating income are typically higher in the second half of the year. Our first fiscal quarter of the year is typically our lowest revenue quarter, as the harsher winter weather conditions that often occur during this period can negatively impact our ability to execute work and our productivity in parts of North America. Our revenue typically increases during the high construction seasons of the summer and fall months in the United States. Within the United States, as well as in other parts of the world, our business generally benefits from milder weather conditions during our third fiscal quarter, which allows for more productivity from our on-site construction operations. For these reasons, it is not unusual for us to experience seasonal changes or fluctuations in our quarterly operating results.
Government Contracts
Most of our federal, state and local government customers can terminate, renegotiate, or modify any of their contracts with us at their election, and many of our federal government contracts are subject to renewal or extension periodically. Revenue derived from federal, state and local government customers as a percentage of our total revenue was 75% in 2025, 72% in 2024 and 74% in 2023.
Environmental, Health and Safety Regulations
Environmental, health and safety regulations and requirements materially affect our business. We are firmly committed to providing a safe and healthy work environment for our employees and to working in a manner that ensures the safety of our employees, subcontractors, customers and the general public, as well as the protection of facilities, equipment and the environment. Compliance with Occupational Safety and Health Administration (“OSHA”) and other health and safety regulations, in particular, is essential to procure business and to attract and retain our workforce. Accordingly, we make considerable investments in our environmental, health and safety programs, and we factor costs associated with compliance into our project bids and proposals.

Table of Contents
We provide construction and construction management services at various project sites, and sometimes perform work in and around sensitive environmental areas, such as rivers, lakes and wetlands. We also handle hazardous materials on occasion. Significant fines, penalties and other sanctions may be imposed for non-compliance with environmental and health and safety laws and regulations, and some laws provide for joint and several strict liabilities for remediation of releases of hazardous substances.
Contaminants have been detected at some of the sites that we own and where we have worked as a contractor in the past, and we have incurred costs for the investigation and remediation of hazardous substances. However, we do not own the job sites upon which we perform our work. We have pollution liability insurance coverage for such matters, and if applicable, we seek indemnification from customers to cover the risks associated with environmental remediation.
Insurance and Bonding
As a normal part of the construction business, we are often contractually required to maintain various insurance coverages, including for our projects. Our wholly owned subsidiary, PCR Insurance Company, issues policies for default insurance for our subcontractors, automobile liability, general liability and workers’ compensation insurance, allowing us to centralize our claims and risk management functions to reduce our insurance-related costs. In addition, for certain larger projects, we typically procure project-specific insurance policies. Separately, property and equipment, including those of our joint ventures, are covered by insurance in amounts that we believe are consistent with our risk of loss and industry practice.
We are also often contractually required to provide various types of surety bonds as an additional level of security for our performance. In addition, we require many of our subcontractors to provide surety bonds as security for payment of subcontractors and suppliers and to guarantee their performance. As an alternative to traditional surety bonds, we also have purchased subcontractor default insurance for certain construction projects to insure against the risk of subcontractor default.
Human Capital Resources
The foundation of our continuing success as a leading construction services business is our ability to attract and retain the industry’s best talent by providing a culture of opportunity, development, accountability and empowerment, and by treating people with respect, dignity and fairness. This understanding guides our approach to managing our human capital resources.
Employees. Our principal asset is our employees, many of whom have technical and professional backgrounds and undergraduate and/or advanced degrees. As of December 31, 2025, we had approximately 7,400 employees (including union employees), of which approximately 2,000 were salaried and 5,400 were hourly employees. The number of employees at any given time depends on the volume and types of active projects in progress, as well as our position within the lifecycle of those projects. We believe that we have strong relationships with our employees and that the quality and level of service that our employees deliver to our customers are among the highest in our industry.
Union Workforce. We are signatory to numerous local and regional collective bargaining agreements, both directly and through trade associations, as a union contractor. These agreements cover all necessary union crafts and are subject to various renewal dates. As of December 31, 2025, our workforce included a total of approximately 4,000 union employees. Estimated amounts for wage escalation related to the expiration of union contracts are included in our bids on various projects; accordingly, the expiration of any union contract in the next year is not expected to have any material impact on us. During the past several years, we have not experienced any significant work stoppages caused by our union employees.
Talent Recruitment, Training and Retention. Our business relies upon an adequate supply of management, supervisory and field personnel. Recruiting, training and retaining key personnel have been and will remain primary goals of our human capital initiatives. Through the use of management information systems, on-the-job training and educational seminars, employees are trained to understand the importance of project execution. We place a strong emphasis on training employees in accurate and comprehensive project estimating, project management and project cost control. As is common in our industry, we experience some recurring employee turnover each year, which we believe is comparable to the industry average. Historically, we have successfully attracted and retained sufficient numbers of personnel, including union personnel, to support our operational needs. We strive to ensure a fully competent project management team that includes long-term successors to our current project leaders by investing significant resources to build strong and highly competent project managers. We regularly hire construction management and engineering staff, including interns and recent graduates, and provide them with engaging projects and development programs. On the occasion when we have a need for senior project executives, the broad professional network of our leadership team often provides strong candidates to fill those needs. We also utilize internal and external recruiting specialists to help fill our open job positions. To support retention and motivation of our top talent, we provide competitive compensation, which may include performance incentives.

Workplace Safety. We place a strong emphasis on the safety of our employees, our customers and the public. Accordingly, we conduct extensive safety training programs that have allowed us to maintain a high safety level at our worksites. All newly hired employees that will be working at project job sites undergo an initial safety orientation, and for certain types of projects or processes we conduct specific hazard training programs. Our project supervisors regularly conduct on-site safety meetings, and our safety managers make random site safety inspections and perform daily assessments. In addition, operational employees are required to complete an OSHA 30-hour training program and project-specific courses on various safety topics. Moreover, we promote a culture of safety by encouraging employees to recognize, immediately correct and report all unsafe conditions. To underscore the importance of safety, a portion of annual performance bonus compensation for certain executive management is directly linked to the achievement of a key safety metric. Our strong overall safety performance also helps to reduce our insurance-related costs.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
We are subject to a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could have a material adverse effect on our operations. Set forth below, and elsewhere in this report, are descriptions of the material risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements contained in this report and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Risks Related to Our Business and Operations
If we are unable to accurately estimate contract risks, revenue or costs, we may incur a loss or achieve lower than anticipated profit.
Accounting for contract-related revenue and costs requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions that may change substantially throughout the project lifecycle, which has previously resulted, and in the future could result, in a material impact to our consolidated financial statements. In addition, cost overruns, including unanticipated cost increases on fixed price contracts and guaranteed maximum price contracts, have previously resulted, and in the future may result, in lower profits or losses.
We are involved in a significant number of legal proceedings which, if determined unfavorable to us, could adversely affect our financial results and/or cash flows, harm our reputation and/or preclude us from bidding on future projects. We also may invest significant working capital on projects while legal proceedings are being settled.
We are involved in various lawsuits, including the legal proceedings described under Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Litigation is inherently uncertain, and it is not possible to accurately predict what the final outcome will be of any legal proceeding. We must make certain assumptions and rely on estimates, which are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, regarding potential outcomes of legal proceedings in order to determine an appropriate contingent liability and charge to income. Any adverse legal proceeding outcome or settlement that is materially different from our expectations and estimates could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. This may include requiring us to record an expense or reduce revenue that we previously recorded based on our expectations or estimates, requiring us to pay damages or reducing cash collections that we had expected to receive. For example, in October 2024, we received an unexpected adverse arbitration decision on a legacy dispute related to a completed Civil segment bridge project in California that resulted in a non-cash charge of $101.6 million, which we are appealing. In addition, any future adverse judgments could harm our reputation and negatively impact our ability to win future projects.
We may bring claims against project owners for additional cost exceeding the contract price or for amounts not included in the original contract price. When these types of events occur and unresolved claims are pending, we may invest significant working capital in projects to cover cost overruns pending the resolution of the relevant claims. A failure to promptly recover on these types of claims has had and could continue to have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and financial results and could result in further legal proceedings.

Our contracts often require us to perform extra work beyond the initial project scope, which can result in disputes or claims and adversely affect our working capital, profits and cash flows.
Our contracts often require us to perform extra work beyond the initial project scope as directed by the customer even if the customer has not agreed in advance on the scope and/or price of the work to be performed. This process has resulted and in the future could result in disputes or claims over whether the work performed is beyond the scope of work directed by the customer and/or exceeds the price the customer is willing to pay for the work performed, which has resulted in significant cash flow constraints in the past. To the extent we do not recover our costs for this work or there are delays in the recovery of these costs, whether as a result of an unfavorable outcome in a litigation or arbitration or as a result of a settlement in which we agree to accept less than we had expected, our working capital, profits and cash flows have been and could continue to be adversely impacted.
Economic factors, such as inflation, tariffs, the timing of new awards, or the pace of project execution, have resulted and may continue to result in losses or lower than anticipated profit.
Economic factors, including inflation and tariffs, have also previously subjected us, and could in the future subject us, to higher costs, which we may not be able to fully recover in future projects that we are bidding, and may also decrease profit on our existing contracts, in particular with respect to our fixed price, unit price and guaranteed maximum price contracts. Changes in laws, policies or regulations, including tariffs and taxes, have previously impacted, and in the future could impact, the prices for materials or equipment. Further, our results of operations have historically fluctuated, and may continue to fluctuate, quarterly and annually depending on when new awards occur and the commencement and progress of work on projects already awarded.
Our actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used to prepare our financial statements.
In preparing our financial statements, we are required under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) to make estimates and assumptions as of the date of the financial statements. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported values of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Areas requiring significant estimates or assumptions by our management include, but are not limited to:
• recognition of contract revenue, costs, profits or losses in applying the principles of revenue accounting;
• recognition of revenue related to project incentives or awards we expect to receive;
• recognition of recoveries under unapproved change orders or claims;
• estimated amounts for expected project losses, warranty costs, contract closeout or other costs;
• collectability of billed and unbilled accounts receivable;
• asset valuations;
• income tax provisions and related valuation allowances;
• determination of expense and potential liabilities under pension and other post-retirement benefit programs; and
• accruals for other estimated liabilities, including litigation and insurance reserves.
Our actual business and financial results could differ from our estimates of such results. These differences, including those which have resulted, and in the future could result, from unfavorable litigation or arbitration outcomes and settlements in which we agree to accept less than previously estimated amounts, have had and could continue to have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and reported results of operations. Our past decisions to prioritize efforts to seek faster resolution of certain disputed matters and convert related balances to cash more quickly has resulted, and may in the future result, in other situations where amounts that we collect are lower than estimated amounts, even in cases where our estimates have taken into account the recent shift in our operational priorities.
A significant slowdown or decline in economic conditions, such as those presented during a recession, could adversely affect our operations.
A significant decline in economic conditions, such as those presented during a recession, in any of the markets we serve or uncertainty regarding the economic outlook has resulted and in the future could result in a decline in demand for infrastructure projects and commercial building developments. In addition, instability in the financial and credit markets has negatively impacted and in the future could negatively impact our customers’ ability to pay us on a timely basis, or at all, for work on projects already under construction, has caused and in the future could cause our customers to delay or cancel construction projects in our backlog and could create difficulties for customers to obtain adequate financing to fund new construction projects. Such consequences have had and in the future could continue to have an adverse impact on our operating results. Lastly, we are more susceptible to adverse economic conditions in New York and California, as a significant portion of our operations are concentrated in those states.

The construction services industry is highly schedule driven, and our failure to meet the schedule requirements of our contracts could adversely affect our reputation and/or expose us to financial liability.
Many of our contracts are subject to specific completion schedule requirements. Failure to meet contractual schedule requirements has subjected us, and in the future could subject us, to liquidated damages, liability for our customer’s actual cost arising out of our delay and damage to our reputation.
Decreases or delays in the level of federal, state and local government spending for infrastructure and other public projects could adversely affect the number of projects available to us in the future.
The civil construction and public-works building markets are dependent on the amount of work funded by various government agencies, which depends on many factors, including the condition of the existing infrastructure and buildings; the need for new or expanded infrastructure and buildings; and federal, state and local government spending levels. As a result, our future operating results could be negatively impacted by any decrease in demand for public projects or decrease or delay in government funding, which could result from a variety of factors, including extended government shutdowns, delays in the sale of voter-approved bonds, budget shortfalls, credit rating downgrades or long-term impairment in the ability of state and local governments to raise capital in the municipal bond market.
Systems and information technology interruption and breaches in data security and/or privacy could adversely impact our ability to operate and negatively impact our operating results.
We rely on computer, information and communication technology and other related systems, some of which are hosted by third-party providers, for various business processes and activities, including project management, accounting, financial reporting and business development. These systems are subject to interruptions or damage by a variety of factors including, but not limited to, cyber-attacks, natural disasters, power loss, telecommunications failures, acts of war, computer viruses, email phishing, obsolescence and physical damage. Additionally, the increased prevalence and use of artificial intelligence may heighten the risk that we may be subject to cybersecurity incidents in the future. Such interruptions can result in a loss of critical data, a delay in operations, damage to our reputation or an unintentional disclosure of customer confidential or personally identifiable information, any of which could have a material adverse impact on us and our consolidated financial statements.
Cybersecurity risks include potential attacks on both our information technology infrastructure and those of third parties (both on premises and in the cloud) attempting to gain unauthorized access to our confidential or other proprietary information, classified information, or information relating to our employees, customers and other third parties. We dedicate considerable attention and resources to the safeguarding of our information technology systems. Nevertheless, due to the evolving nature, persistence, sophistication and volume of cyber-attacks, we may not be successful in defending our systems against all such attacks. Consequently, we have engaged, and may again need to engage, significant resources to remediate the impact of, or further mitigate the risk of, such an attack. Any successful cyber-attack can result in the criminal, or otherwise illegitimate use of, confidential data, including our data or third-party data for which we have the responsibility for safekeeping. Additionally, such an attack could have a material adverse impact on our operations, reputation and financial results.
In addition, various privacy and security laws and regulations requiring us to protect sensitive and confidential information from disclosure continue to evolve and pose increasingly complex compliance challenges. Compliance with evolving data privacy laws and regulations may cause us to incur additional costs, and any violation could result in damage to our reputation and/or subject us to fines, payment of damages, lawsuits and restrictions on our use of data, which could have a material adverse impact on our financial results.
We require substantial personnel, including construction and project managers and specialty subcontractor resources, to execute and perform on our contracts in backlog. The successful execution of our business strategies is also dependent upon our ability to attract and retain our key officers, as well as adequately plan for their succession.
Our ability to execute and perform on our contracts in backlog depends in large part upon our ability to hire and retain highly skilled personnel, including project and construction management and trade labor resources, such as carpenters, masons and other skilled workers. In the event we are unable to attract, hire and retain the requisite personnel and subcontractors necessary to execute and perform on our contracts in backlog, we may experience delays in completing projects in accordance with project schedules or an increase in expected costs, both of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial results, our reputation and our relationships. In addition, if we lack the personnel and specialty subcontractors necessary to perform on our current contract backlog, we may find it necessary to curtail our pursuit of new projects. A significant, rapid growth in our backlog has led, and could continue to lead, to situations in which labor resources become constrained.

Table of Contents
The execution of our business strategies also substantially depends on our ability to retain several key members of our management. Losing any of these individuals could adversely affect our business. The majority of these key individuals are not bound by employment agreements. Volatility or lack of positive performance in our stock price may adversely affect our ability to retain key individuals to whom we have provided share-based compensation. We have experienced changes in senior management in the past. Our long-time Chairman and CEO transitioned to the role of Executive Chairman, and we appointed a new CEO, both effective as of January 1, 2025. Changes in management, including as a result of succession or voluntary or involuntary termination, including as a result of retirement, death or disability, could adversely affect our business and financial results, particularly if we are not able to identify, engage, and retain qualified successors or if our business, customers, or employees do not respond positively to such changes.
Weather conditions and other events outside our control can significantly affect our revenue and profitability.
Inclement weather conditions, such as significant storms and unusual temperatures, as well as natural or man-made disasters or other catastrophic events, can impact or prevent our ability to perform work. These conditions and events have caused, and may in the future cause, delays or terminations and increases in project costs, resulting in variability in our revenue and profitability.
We are subject to risks related to government contracts (including government shutdowns and funding considerations) and related procurement regulations.
Our contracts with U.S. federal, as well as state, local and foreign, government entities are subject to various procurement regulations and other requirements relating to their formation, administration and performance. We are subject to audits and investigations relating to our government contracts, and any violations could result in various civil and criminal penalties and administrative sanctions, including termination of contract, refunding or suspending of payments, forfeiture of profits, payment of fines and suspension or debarment from future government business. In addition, most of these contracts provide for termination or renegotiation by the government at any time, without cause, which could have an adverse effect on our business and operations. There have also recently been, and there may in the future be, occasions when even previously authorized and committed funding is withheld by the government, which could temporarily delay the progress of certain projects or the awards of new projects. The percentage of our business coming from government entities has continued to increase in recent years, and as of December 31, 2025 accounted for 86% of our backlog. As a result, the risks of adverse consequences related to government contracting and procurement are increasingly fundamental to our business.
Our international operations expose us to economic, political, regulatory and other risks, as well as uncertainty related to U.S. government funding, which could adversely affect our revenue and earnings.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, we derived $489.7 million, or 9%, of revenue from our work on projects in international locations, including U.S. territories. Our international operations expose us to risks inherent in doing business in regions outside the United States, including political risks; risks of loss due to acts of war; unstable economic, financial and market conditions; potential incompatibility with foreign subcontractors and vendors; foreign currency controls and fluctuations; trade restrictions; economic and trade sanctions; logistical challenges; variations in taxes; and changes in labor conditions, labor strikes and difficulties in staffing and managing international operations. Failure to successfully manage risks associated with our international operations could result in higher operating costs than anticipated or could delay or limit our ability to generate revenue and income from construction operations in key international markets.
The U.S. federal government has approved various spending bills for the construction of defense- and diplomacy-related projects and has allocated significant funds to the defense of U.S. interests around the world from the threat of terrorism. The federal government has also approved funds for development in conjunction with the relocation of military personnel into Guam. However, federal government funding levels for construction projects in the Middle East have decreased significantly over the past several years as the U.S. government has reduced the number of military troops and support personnel in the region. As a result, we have seen a decrease in the number and size of federal government projects available to us in this region. Any decrease in U.S. federal government funding for projects in Guam or in other U.S. Territories or countries in which we are pursuing work may result in project delays or cancellations, which could reduce our revenue and earnings.

Our participation in construction joint ventures exposes us to liability and/or harm to our reputation for failures by our partners.
As part of our business, we enter into joint venture arrangements typically to jointly bid on and execute particular projects, thereby reducing our risk profile while enhancing execution capabilities and increasing surety bonding capacity. Success on these joint projects depends in large part on whether our joint venture partners satisfy their contractual obligations and comply with all applicable regulatory requirements. Generally, we and our joint venture partners are jointly and severally liable for all liabilities and obligations of our joint ventures. If a joint venture partner fails to perform or is financially unable to bear its portion of required capital contributions or other obligations, including liabilities stemming from lawsuits, we could be required to make additional investments, provide additional services or pay more than our proportionate share of a liability to make up for our partner’s shortfall. Further, if we are unable to adequately address our partner’s performance issues, the customer may terminate the project, which could result in legal liability to us, harm our reputation, reduce our profit on a project or, in some cases, result in a loss.
We may not fully realize the revenue value reported in our backlog due to cancellations or reductions in scope, including as a result of government-related mandates.
As of December 31, 2025, our backlog of uncompleted construction work was approximately $20.6 billion. The revenue currently projected in our backlog may not be fully realized and, if realized, may not result in profits or may be less profitable than expected. The cancellation or reduction in scope of significant projects included in our backlog could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Competition for new project awards is intense, and our failure to compete effectively could reduce our market share and profits.
New project awards are determined through either a competitive bid basis or on a negotiated basis. Projects may be awarded based solely upon price, but often take into account other factors, such as technical qualifications, proposed project team, schedule and past performance on similar projects. Within our industry, we compete with many international, regional and local construction firms. If we are unable to compete successfully in such markets, our relative market share and profits could be reduced. In addition, evolving changes in the construction industry, such as the trend toward an increased use of the progressive design-build project delivery method that may reduce project risks for both owners and contractors, could result in increased competition and potentially lower margins on certain projects in the future.
We could be adversely affected by violations of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and similar worldwide anti-bribery laws.
The U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, the U.K. Bribery Act of 2010, and similar anti-bribery laws in other jurisdictions generally prohibit companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. While our policies mandate compliance with these anti-bribery laws, there is no assurance that our policies and procedures will protect us from circumstances or actions that could result in possible criminal penalties or other sanctions, including contract cancellations or debarment, and harm to our reputation, any of which could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Public health crises, such as COVID-19, have adversely impacted, and could in the future adversely impact, our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Pandemics, epidemics or other public health crises can adversely impact our business or the business of our suppliers, subcontractors or customers. For example, particularly in 2020 and 2021, COVID-19 created volatility, uncertainty and economic disruption for the Company, our customers, subcontractors and suppliers, and the markets in which we do business, and certain of the impacts of this disruption have continued. COVID-19 also caused delays in certain bidding activities and contract awards, particularly for large civil projects, which adversely affected both our revenue and our backlog. We also faced substantial postponements and other delays in legal proceedings and settlement discussions where we have claims against project owners for additional costs exceeding the contract price or for amounts not included in the original contract price. Consequently, our ability to resolve and recover on these types of claims has been and may continue to be delayed, which may adversely affect our liquidity and financial results.
While the adverse effects of COVID-19 have largely subsided, should future public health crises occur, this could have a further adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Further, any future volatile economic conditions resulting from public health crises could also aggravate or heighten the risks posed by other risk factors that we have identified in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, which in turn could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Physical and regulatory risks related to climate change could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
As a business that builds new infrastructure and improves existing infrastructure for customers around the world, physical risks related to climate change, such as rising sea levels and temperatures, severe storms, and energy and technological disruptions, could cause delays and increases in project costs, resulting in variability in our revenue and profitability, as well as potentially adverse impacts to our operating results and financial condition. In addition, growing public concern about climate change has resulted in the increased focus of local, state, regional, national and international regulatory bodies on greenhouse gas emissions and climate change issues. Legislation to regulate greenhouse gas emissions has periodically been introduced in the U.S. Congress and in the legislatures of various states in which we operate, and there has been a wide-ranging policy debate, both in the United States and internationally, regarding the impact of these gases and possible means for their regulation. Such policy changes, including any enactment of increasingly stringent emissions or other environmental regulations, could increase the costs of projects for us and for our clients and, in some cases, delay or even prevent a project from going forward, thereby potentially reducing demand for our services. Consequently, this could result in a material adverse impact on our business.
In connection with mergers and acquisitions, we have recorded goodwill and other intangible assets that could become impaired and adversely affect our operating results. Assessing whether impairment has occurred requires us to make significant judgments and assumptions about the future, which are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, and if actual events turn out to be materially less favorable than the judgments we make and the assumptions we use, we may be required to record impairment charges in the future.
We had $255.6 million of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2025. We assess these assets for impairment annually, or more often if required. Our assessments involve a number of estimates and assumptions that are inherently subjective, require significant judgment and involve highly uncertain matters that are subject to change. The use of different assumptions or estimates could materially affect the determination as to whether or not an impairment has occurred. In addition, if future events are less favorable than what we assumed or estimated in our impairment analysis, we may be required to record an impairment charge, which could have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements. We have, in the past, recorded significant asset impairment charges and could have additional such charges in the future.
Risks Related to Our Capital Structure
An inability to obtain bonding could have a negative impact on our operations and results.
We are often required to provide surety bonds securing our performance under our contracts. Our ability to obtain surety bonds primarily depends on our working capital, past performance, capitalization, credit rating, management expertise, overall capacity of the surety market and other factors. If we are unable to obtain reasonably priced surety bonds in the future, it could significantly affect our ability to be awarded new contracts and could, consequently, have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We have a substantial amount of indebtedness with restrictive covenants which could adversely affect our financial position and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations under our debt agreements.
We currently have, and expect to continue to have, a substantial amount of indebtedness. As of December 31, 2025, our total debt was $407.4 million, with $14.6 million classified as current debt. A significant amount of debt under our credit agreement contains financial covenants, including one covenant to maintain a maximum First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the 2020 Credit Agreement (as defined below)), which has required us to obtain two amendments, the First Amendment, dated as of October 31, 2022 and the Second Amendment, dated as of March 10, 2023, to the 2020 Credit Agreement in order to remain in compliance with this covenant. There is a risk that we may need to seek further amendments to this covenant or other covenants in the future should our operating results or financial condition differ materially from our projections. If we are unable to meet the terms of the financial covenants or fail to comply with any of the other restrictions contained in the agreements governing our indebtedness, an event of default could occur, causing the debt related to such agreements to become immediately due. If such acceleration occurs, we may not be able to repay such indebtedness as required. Since indebtedness under our credit agreement entered into on August 18, 2020 (as amended, the “2020 Credit Agreement”) with BMO Harris Bank N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer and other lenders is secured by substantially all of our assets, acceleration of this debt could result in foreclosure of those assets and a negative impact on our operations. In addition, a failure to meet the terms of our 2020 Credit Agreement could result in a reduction of future borrowing capacity or additional restrictions under the 2020 Credit Agreement that could negatively impact our liquidity and financial condition. A loss of liquidity could adversely impact our ability to execute projects in our backlog, obtain new projects, engage subcontractors, and attract and retain key employees.

Downgrades in our credit ratings could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
The credit ratings assigned to us and our debt are subject to ongoing evaluation by credit rating agencies and could change based upon, among other things, our results of operations and financial condition. Actual or anticipated changes or downgrades in our credit ratings, including any announcement that our ratings are under review for a downgrade, could have a material adverse effect on our costs and availability of capital, which could in turn have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations. Negative changes in our credit ratings could also result in more stringent covenants and higher interest rates with regard to any new or refinanced debt.
Risk Related to Our Stock Ownership
Our executive chairman could exert influence over the Company due to his position and significant ownership interest.
Our executive chairman, Ronald N. Tutor, and three trusts he controls (the “Tutor Group”) own approximately 12% of the outstanding shares of our common stock as of December 31, 2025. Additionally, one of our current directors was appointed by Mr. Tutor pursuant to Mr. Tutor’s right to nominate one member to our Board of Directors, so long as the Tutor Group owns at least 11.25% of the outstanding shares of our common stock. Accordingly, Mr. Tutor could exert influence over the outcome of a range of corporate matters, including the election of directors and the approval or rejection of other extraordinary transactions, such as a takeover attempt or sale of the Company or its assets.
General Risk Factors
The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly, which could result in substantial losses for shareholders and subject us to litigation.
The market price of our common stock has been, and in the future may be, subject to significant fluctuations due to numerous factors, including but not limited to the risks described in this Risk Factors section. These factors may materially harm the market price of our common stock and potentially expose us to securities class-action litigation, which, even if unsuccessful, could result in substantial costs and divert management’s attention and resources from our business and have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We cannot guarantee the timing, amount, or payment of dividends on our common stock or that we will repurchase our common stock pursuant to our stock repurchase program.
The timing, declaration, amount, and payment of future dividends to our shareholders falls within the discretion of the Board of Directors. The Board of Director’s decisions regarding the payment of future dividends will depend on many factors, such as our financial condition, earnings, capital requirements, debt service obligations, covenants related to our debt service obligations, industry practice, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, access to the capital markets, and other factors that it deems relevant. We cannot guarantee that we will continue to pay any dividend in the future. Furthermore, although our Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program, we are not obligated to make any purchases under the program, and it may be discontinued at any time.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY
Cybersecurity Governance
Cybersecurity and risks related to our information technology (“IT”) are an important focus of our Board of Directors’ risk oversight. Our Board of Directors, with assistance from the Audit Committee, oversees the Company’s enterprise risk management process, which includes cybersecurity risk management.The Audit Committee, a member of which holds a Certificate in Cyber Risk Governance and a Qualified Risk Director designation from the DCRO Institute, receives regular reports from our Chief Information Officer (“CIO”), along with members of senior management, on the identification and status of cybersecurity risks and management, as well as on the Company’s exploration of the use of artificial intelligence in the construction industry.
Our IT and cybersecurity programs are managed by our CIO, who reports to our Chief Executive Officer. Our CIO has over 30 years of experience in managing IT and cybersecurity. We also have a dedicated Chief Information Security Officer (“CISO”), who reports to the CIO and has overall responsibility for establishing our enterprise-wide cybersecurity strategy, standards, architecture, processes and procedures, and policies. Our CISO has over 25 years of experience in IT and cybersecurity.The Company has adopted incident response plan procedures for assessing and escalating cybersecurity incidents to various response teams that include the CISO, the CIO and other senior management, as necessary.
Cybersecurity Risk Management and Strategy
We have established various policies, processes, and technologies to aid in our efforts to assess, identify, manage, and mitigate material risks posed by cybersecurity threats, including, among other things:
•Our CISO and IT teams continuously monitor our systems and perform an annual cybersecurity risk assessment;
•We have implemented a proactive incident response and management plan generally aligned with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (“NIST”), with annual plan testing and training for employees involved in the response process;
•Annual penetration tests are performed by a third party and any notable findings are included in remediation plans;
•We engage with key industry partners and threat intelligence services, including assessors, consultants and other industry third parties to evaluate our cybersecurity risk management and incident response plans and processes;
•All employees, contractors and temporary workers are required to review and acknowledge our acceptable use policies, which include sections on information and cybersecurity practices and policies;
•Employees are regularly engaged in cybersecurity awareness campaigns, anti-phishing tests, and mandatory training as needed;
•We address third-party cybersecurity risks through interviews and third-party independent assessment reports;
•We maintain cybersecurity insurance coverage as part of our overall insurance portfolio; and
•In conformity with customer requirements, we require proof that subcontractors complete relevant cybersecurity education and awareness training prior to being awarded a subcontract.
We are not aware of any known risks from cybersecurity threats that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our Company, business strategy, or financial results, and we have not experienced any cybersecurity incidents that have had a material adverse impact on our operations or financial results. See Item 1A. Risk Factors for a discussion of cybersecurity risks.

Dividends
Our Board of Directors initiated a cash dividend in the fourth quarter of 2025 under which we have paid, and intend to continue paying, regular quarterly dividends. The declaration, amount and timing of such dividends are subject to capital availability and determinations by our Board of Directors that cash dividends are in the best interest of our shareholders and are in compliance with all respective laws and applicable agreements. Our ability to pay dividends will depend upon factors such as our cash balances and potential future capital requirements, including acquisitions, debt service requirements, results of operations, financial condition and other factors that our Board of Directors may deem relevant.
During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company declared a cash dividend of $0.06 per share payable on December 23, 2025, to all shareholders of record on December 9, 2025. Total dividends declared in 2025 amounted to $3.4 million, including $0.3 million of accrued dividends relating to unvested share-based awards that are payable at the time of vesting.
Share Repurchases
In November 2025, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program totaling $200 million with no expiration date. Under the share repurchase program, the Company plans to purchase outstanding common shares from time to time in open market transactions or through privately negotiated transactions at the Company’s discretion, subject to market conditions and other factors and at such times and in amounts that the Company deems appropriate. As of December 31, 2025, we have not repurchased any shares of our common stock and $200 million remained available for repurchase under this program.
Our share repurchase programs do not obligate the Company to purchase any shares. Share repurchases may be executed through various means including, without limitation, accelerated share repurchases, open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions, purchases pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan or otherwise. The authorization for the share repurchase programs may be terminated, increased or decreased by our Board of Directors at its discretion at any time. The timing, amount and manner of share repurchases may depend upon market conditions and economic circumstances, availability of investment opportunities, the availability and costs of financing, currency fluctuations, the market price of the Company's common stock, other uses of capital and other factors.

Performance Graph
The following graph compares the cumulative five-year total return to shareholders on our common stock relative to the cumulative total returns of the NYSE Composite Index and the Dow Jones U.S. Heavy Construction Index. We selected the Dow Jones U.S. Heavy Construction Index because we believe the index reflects the market conditions within the industry in which we primarily operate. The comparison of total return on investment, defined as the change in year-end stock price plus reinvested dividends, for each of the periods assumes that $100 was invested on December 31, 2020 in each of our common stock, the NYSE Composite Index and the Dow Jones U.S. Heavy Construction Index, with investment weighted on the basis of market capitalization.

Comparison of 2024 to 2023 Results
For a discussion comparing our 2024 results to our 2023 results, refer to Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as filed with the SEC on February 27, 2025.
Executive Overview
Operating Results
Consolidated revenue for 2025 was $5.5 billion, up 28% compared to $4.3 billion for 2024. The Company experienced strong growth in all three segments in 2025, primarily driven by increased project execution activities on certain newer, larger and higher-margin projects, all of which have significant scope of work remaining. These projects are in the early stages and are expected to ramp up substantially over the next several years.

Table of Contents
Income from construction operations for 2025 was $232.0 million, a dramatic improvement compared to a loss from construction operations of $103.8 million for 2024. The increase in income from construction operations in 2025 was primarily due to contributions related to an overall net increase in project execution activities that totaled $172.1 million and a lower amount of net unfavorable adjustments in 2025 driven by changes in the estimate at completion for various projects, including: 1) impacts from improved productivity and efficiencies on certain projects, net of project charges, which had an aggregate net favorable impact of $104.3 million in 2025 compared to a net unfavorable impact of $36.4 million in 2024; 2) certain legal judgments or decisions that had net unfavorable impacts totaling $32.5 million in 2025 compared to $167.7 million in 2024; and 3) temporary aggregate negative project adjustments of $78.7 million in 2025 compared to $97.2 million in 2024 due to both the successful negotiation of significant lower margin (and lower risk) change orders and increases in unapproved work on various projects, the temporary impacts to earnings of which are expected to reverse themselves over the remaining lives of the projects. The improvement was partially offset by the impact of various settlements that had a net unfavorable impact of $61.8 million in 2025 compared to $45.8 million in 2024. The significant adjustments in 2025 and 2024 resulting from the above items are discussed in more detail in Results of Segment Operations.
Furthermore, income from construction operations for the year ended December 31, 2025 was negatively impacted by share-based compensation expense of $150.0 million compared to share-based compensation expense of $40.4 million in 2024. The increase in share-based compensation expense in 2025 was primarily due to a substantial increase of 176.9% in the Company’s stock price during 2025, which impacted the fair value of liability-classified awards. These liability-classified awards are remeasured at fair value at the end of each reporting period with the change recognized in earnings. These types of awards were issued in past years as a short-term solution to deal with a depleted share pool under the Tutor Perini Corporation Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and a low stock price. The Company currently projects a decrease in share-based compensation expense in 2026 and a much more significant decrease in 2027 as certain such awards have vested and most of the remaining liability-classified awards will vest by the end of 2026. After the Company’s shareholders approved additional shares under the Plan in May 2025, the Company stopped issuing liability-classified, long-term incentive compensation awards, which will help to reduce future earnings volatility.
The effective income tax rate for 2025 was 30.0% compared to 29.3% for 2024. See Corporate, Tax and Other Matters below for a discussion of the change in the effective tax rate.
Diluted earnings per common share for 2025 was $1.51 compared to diluted loss per common share of $3.13 for 2024. Adjusted diluted earnings per common share, which is a non-GAAP financial measure and excludes share-based compensation expense (and the associated tax benefit) for 2025 was $4.29, compared to an adjusted diluted loss per common share of $2.37 for 2024. The improvement for 2025 was primarily due to the factors discussed above that resulted in the change in income (loss) from construction operations for such period. Refer to the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section below for further information and a reconciliation of the Company's financial results reported under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) to the reported adjusted results.
The Company generated record cash flow from operations of $748.1 million in 2025 largely driven by collections from newer and ongoing projects and, to a much lesser extent, from collections related to recent dispute resolutions. The Company utilized some of its cash flow from operations in 2025 to voluntarily prepay its outstanding Term Loan B debt of $121.9 million.
Consolidated new awards in 2025 were $7.4 billion compared to $12.8 billion in 2024. The Civil and Building segments were the primary contributors to the new awards activity in 2025. Significant new awards and contract adjustments in 2025 included the $1.87 billion Midtown Bus Terminal Replacement - Phase 1 project in New York; the $1.18 billion Manhattan Tunnel project in New York; a healthcare facility project in California valued at approximately $1 billion; a $538 million healthcare project in California; $241 million of additional funding for the Apra Harbor Waterfront Repairs project in Guam; a $182 million military defense project in Guam; a $155 million education facility project in California; $131 million of additional funding for an electrical project in Texas; and another electrical project in Texas valued at more than $100 million. The Company has continued to be successful in winning its share of major new project opportunities due to a combination of its strategic bidding approach and favorable market dynamics, including limited competition in select markets for some of the larger projects. This environment, which is supported by strong public funding and demand, has allowed the Company to differentiate itself and deliver compelling proposals that align with the customer’s goals and expectations. The Company expects that this environment will continue for the foreseeable future.
Consolidated backlog as of December 31, 2025 was $20.6 billion, up 10% compared to $18.7 billion as of December 31, 2024. As of December 31, 2025, the mix of backlog by segment was 49% for Civil, 36% for Building and 15% for Specialty Contractors, compared to 47% for Civil, 38% for Building and 15% for Specialty Contractors at the end of 2024.

Table of Contents
Most projects in the Civil segment’s backlog typically convert to revenue over a period of three to five years and in the Building and Specialty Contractors segments over a period of one to three years. Certain larger projects across all three segments may extend over a longer duration. We estimate that approximately $6 billion, or approximately 29%, of our backlog as of December 31, 2025 will be recognized as revenue in 2026.
The following table presents the changes in backlog in 2025:
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
(a)New awards consist of the original contract price of projects added to our backlog plus or minus subsequent changes to the estimated total contract price of existing contracts.
(b)Backlog may differ from the transaction prices allocated to the remaining performance obligations as disclosed in Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Such differences relate to the timing of executing a formal contract or receiving a notice to proceed. More specifically, backlog may include awards for which a contract has not yet been executed or a notice to proceed has not yet been issued, but for which there are no remaining major uncertainties that we will proceed with our work on the project (e.g., adequate funding is in place, we have received a notice of intent to award a contract, etc.).
With respect to potential concerns regarding the U.S. government’s scrutiny and curtailment of federal funding for certain projects, as well as concerns about recent federal government shutdowns and varying new tariff policies that have been and may continue to be implemented, the Company does not currently anticipate any significant impacts to its business related to these factors. Most of the Company’s major projects are funded at the state or local level, or with some combination of federal, state and local funding. For projects that are wholly or partially funded with federal dollars, the funding for those projects has already been committed and/or those projects are strategically important to the United States. Despite this, there have recently been, and there may in the future be, occasions where even previously authorized and committed funding is withheld by the government, which could delay the progress of certain projects or the awards of new projects. The Company does not anticipate any material adverse impacts to its financial results as the result of such temporary project delays.
Specifically related to potential tariff impacts, the Company utilizes a pre-award and post-award strategy. As part of its pre-award strategy, the Company’s detailed estimating process includes consideration of anticipated cost increases over the performance period of the contract, as well as additional contingencies to address other potential incremental costs related to unforeseen risks. Prior to its bid or proposal submission, the Company also works to negotiate favorable contract provisions that provide entitlement for certain compensable events, which may include price escalation and allowances. Once the project is awarded, the Company’s strategy shifts to entering into purchase orders or “buy-outs” of materials, such as steel and concrete, as well as large pieces of equipment at the onset of projects, which mitigate the risk of future equipment and commodity price increases by passing that risk to vendors. Also at that time, the Company enters into fixed-price contracts with its key project subcontractors whereby the risk of unforeseen escalation is transferred to the subcontractors. The Company benefits from its long-term relationships with key suppliers, vendors and subcontractors, which minimize supply chain disruptions that could arise as a result of tariffs. While the Company believes this strategy appropriately mitigates the current risk of potential tariff impacts, there could be other unforeseen future developments. The Company will continue to monitor and assess its exposure to the economic environment.
The outlook for the Company’s revenue growth over the next several years remains highly favorable due to strong new award bookings of large, long-duration projects over the past two years, as well as other new awards that are expected to be booked in the future. For example, the Company has certain building projects in California, mostly in the healthcare, education, and hospitality and gaming sectors, that are in the preconstruction phase. These projects are expected to transition from preconstruction to construction over the next few years, and they include a large, multi-billion-dollar healthcare project in California that is anticipated to be incrementally added to backlog over the next two to three years. Many of the Company’s newer projects are design-build projects that have an initial six to eighteen month design phase during which smaller revenue and earnings are generated prior to the start of a multi-year construction phase that generates substantially larger revenue and earnings. We anticipate that we will continue to win our share of significant new project awards resulting from long-term, well-funded capital spending plans by various state, local and federal customers, as well as limited competition for many of the larger project opportunities.

Nationally, support for transportation-related ballot measures has remained high over the last decade. Since 2014, voters in 43 states approved 84 percent of nearly 3,000 state and local measures on general election ballots. The largest of these was in Los Angeles County, where in 2016 Measure M, a half-cent sales tax increase, was approved and is expected to generate $120 billion of funding over 40 years. Funding from this measure is supporting, and is expected to continue to support, several of the Company’s current and prospective projects. More recently, in the November 2024 elections, voters approved 77 percent of 370 transportation funding measures on state and local ballots throughout the country. These measures are expected to generate an estimated $41.4 billion in new and renewed funding for roads, bridges, rail and other infrastructure. Additionally, the Federal Reserve lowered interest rates in the fall of 2024 and further reduced rates in the second half of 2025, and some economists expect continued interest rate reductions in 2026, though the actual timing and extent of such rate reductions remains uncertain. Lower interest rates could result in additional demand for continued general construction spending.
The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law was enacted into law in November 2021 and provided for $1.2 trillion of federal infrastructure funding, including $550 billion in new spending for improvements to the country’s surface-transportation network and enhancements to core infrastructure. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law initiated the largest federal investment in public transit ever, the single largest dedicated bridge investment since the construction of the interstate highway system and the largest federal investment in passenger rail since the creation of Amtrak, all in addition to providing for regular annual spending for numerous infrastructure projects. This significant incremental funding is anticipated to be spent over the 10 years from its enactment through 2031, and much of it is allocated for investment in end markets that are directly aligned with our market focus. Accordingly, we believe that this significant funding has benefited, and will continue to favorably impact, our current work and prospective opportunities over the next decade. While the current funding window for the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law closes on September 30, 2026, we believe that Congress recognizes the long-term nature of infrastructure work and is already engaged in the legislative process to secure future funding beyond that date, although the amount and composition of such future funding is yet to be determined. In addition, various existing projects and future project opportunities in Guam and the Indo-Pacific region are being funded by the U.S. government’s Pacific Deterrence Initiative, which provides substantial multi-year funding to support significant improvements that enhance the U.S. military’s infrastructure and readiness. Finally, there are various large infrastructure projects across the U.S. for which future funding may be provided, in part or entirely, through public-private partnership (P3) arrangements, which would include mostly private capital investments.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our audited Consolidated Financial Statements presented under GAAP, we are presenting certain
non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are intended to provide additional insights that facilitate the comparison of our past and present performance, and they are among the indicators management uses to assess the Company’s financial performance and to forecast future performance. By presenting these non-GAAP financial measures, we aim to provide investors and stakeholders with a clearer understanding of our operating results and enhance transparency with respect to the key financial metrics used by our management in its financial and operational decision-making.
These non-GAAP financial measures, which exclude share-based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 (as well as the tax benefit associated with the expense), consist of adjusted net income (loss) attributable to the Company and adjusted earnings (loss) per share. We exclude share-based compensation expense because this expense could result in significant volatility in our reported earnings, driven primarily by fluctuations in the expense recognized for certain long-term incentive compensation awards with payouts that are indexed to the Company’s common stock. By adjusting for share-based compensation, our non-GAAP measures present a supplemental depiction of our operational performance and financial health. This approach allows stakeholders to focus on our core operational efficiency and profitability without the variable impact to earnings caused by significant changes in our stock price. Our non-GAAP measures are intended to offer a consistent basis for evaluating the Company’s performance, which management believes is meaningful to stakeholders.
The non-GAAP financial measures included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K as calculated by the Company are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Additionally, these non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered as indicators of performance in isolation from or as a substitute for the most directly comparable measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and should be read only in conjunction with financial information presented on a GAAP basis.

Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures are found in the table below:
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Year Ended December 31,
(in millions, except per common share amounts) 2025 2024 2023
Plus: Share-based compensation expense(a) 150.0 40.4 12.3
Less: Tax benefit provided on share-based compensation expense (1.3) (0.7) (0.8)
Diluted earnings (loss) per common share, as reported $ 1.51 $ (3.13) $ (3.30)
Plus: Share-based compensation expense impact per diluted share 2.81 0.77 0.24
Adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per common share $ 4.29 $ (2.37) $ (3.08)
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
(a)The amount represents share-based compensation expense recorded during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. This includes expense associated with certain long-term incentive compensation awards that have payouts indexed to the Company’s common stock. As such, significant fluctuations in the price of the Company’s common stock during any reporting period have caused and could continue to cause significant fluctuations in the reported expense. The increase in the expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to the prior-year periods was driven by the substantial increase in the price of the Company’s stock during the 2025 period.
Results of Segment Operations
The results of our Civil, Building and Specialty Contractors segments are discussed below:
Civil Segment
Revenue and income from construction operations for the Civil segment are summarized as follows:
Year Ended December 31,
Income from construction operations 390.9 138.3
Revenue for 2025 increased 34% compared to 2024, and set a new record for the segment. The substantial growth was primarily due to increased project execution activities on certain newer, larger and higher-margin projects, all of which have substantial scope of work remaining.
Income from construction operations for 2025 increased $252.6 million compared to 2024, and also set a new record for the segment. The significant improvement was primarily due to contributions related to the increased project execution activities discussed above and the absence of certain prior-year net unfavorable adjustments. These prior-year net unfavorable adjustments included $101.6 million pertaining to an unexpected adverse arbitration decision on a legacy dispute related to a completed bridge project in California, which the Company is appealing; a temporary non-cash impact of $31.8 million for a project on the West Coast, which primarily resulted from significant changes that have been negotiated and carry lower margin (and lower risk) that reduced the project’s percentage of completion and overall margin percentage; $17.4 million due to an unfavorable legal ruling on a completed highway project in Virginia; and $15.1 million due to changes in estimates on an otherwise profitable mass-transit project in California that is nearly complete, partially offset by a prior-year favorable adjustment of $18.4 million due to a settlement of a claim associated with a completed highway tunneling project in the western United States. The 2025 period was also impacted by certain largely offsetting adjustments, including favorable adjustments of $57.6 million that resulted from the settlement of certain change orders and changes in estimates due to improved performance and a favorable project closeout on a domestic mass-transit project, mostly offset by an unfavorable adjustment of $54.7 million due to the settlement of a legacy dispute related to a tunneling project in Canada.
Operating margin was 13.7% for 2025 compared to 6.5% in 2024. The increase in operating margin for 2025 was primarily due to the above-mentioned factors that drove the increases in revenue and income from construction operations.
24
Table of Contents
New awards and contract adjustments in the Civil segment totaled $4.2 billion in 2025 compared to $6.7 billion in 2024. Significant new awards and contract adjustments in 2025 included the $1.87 billion Midtown Bus Terminal Replacement - Phase 1 project in New York; the $1.18 billion Manhattan Tunnel project in New York; $241 million of additional funding for the Apra Harbor Waterfront Repairs project in Guam; and a $182 million military defense project in Guam.
New awards and contract adjustments in 2024 included the $1.66 billion City Center Guideway and Stations project in Hawaii; the $1.13 billion Newark AirTrain Replacement project in New Jersey; the $1.1 billion Kensico-Eastview Connection Tunnel project in New York; the Civil segment’s share of both the $3.76 billion Manhattan Jail project and the $2.95 billion Brooklyn Jail project, both in New York; $479 million of additional funding for certain mass-transit projects in California; $331 million for the Apra Harbor Waterfront Repairs project in Guam; and the Company’s proportionate share of the $1.3 billion Connecticut River Bridge Replacement project in Connecticut.
Backlog for the Civil segment was $10.2 billion as of December 31, 2025, up 15% compared to $8.8 billion as of December 31, 2024. The segment continues to experience strong demand reflected in a large, multi-year pipeline of prospective projects, and supported by substantial anticipated funding from various voter-approved state and local transportation measures, the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, and by public agencies’ long-term spending plans. We believe that the Civil segment is well-positioned to continue capturing its share of these prospective projects, with the majority of near-term opportunities on the West Coast, in the Midwest, the Northeast, and the Indo-Pacific region.
Building Segment
Revenue and income (loss) from construction operations for the Building segment are summarized as follows:
Year Ended December 31,
Income (loss) from construction operations 58.2 (24.1)
Revenue for 2025 increased 15% compared to 2024, primarily due to increased project execution activities on two large detention facility projects in New York and a large healthcare facility project in California, all of which have substantial scope of work remaining.
Income from construction operations for 2025 was $58.2 million compared to a loss of $24.1 million for 2024. The significant improvement was principally due to contributions related to the increased project execution activities discussed above and the absence of certain prior-year unfavorable adjustments, including $25.9 million on a completed government building project in Florida primarily due to increased costs associated with external subcontractors and resolution of certain delay change orders and $20.0 million associated with the settlement of a legacy dispute related to a completed government facility project in Florida.
Operating margin was 3.1% in 2025 compared to (1.5)% in 2024. The increase in operating margin was driven by the above-mentioned factors that drove the increases in revenue and income (loss) from construction operations.
New awards and contract adjustments in the Building segment totaled $2.2 billion in 2025 compared to $4.5 billion in 2024. Significant new awards and contract adjustments in 2025 included a healthcare facility project in California valued at approximately $1 billion; a $538 million healthcare project in California; and a $155 million education facility project in California. Certain Building segment end markets, such as healthcare, education, industrial/manufacturing, and hospitality and gaming, continue to demonstrate strong demand for new and renovated facilities.
New awards and contract adjustments in 2024 included the Building segment’s portion of the $3.76 billion Manhattan Jail project in New York (which includes a substantial amount of electrical and mechanical scope of work that will be performed by the Specialty Contractors segment); a $1.4 billion healthcare campus project in California; $449 million for two healthcare facility projects in California; and a $229 million airport terminal connectors project at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport in Florida.
25
Table of Contents
Backlog for the Building segment was $7.3 billion as of December 31, 2025, up 4% compared to $7.0 billion as of December 31, 2024. The Building segment continues to experience strong customer demand as reflected by a large volume of prospective projects across various end markets and geographic locations. In addition, there are certain healthcare, education, and hospitality and gaming projects underway in California that are in the preconstruction phase, with only a small portion of their full anticipated value included in our reported backlog. These projects are expected to transition from preconstruction to construction over the next few years, and they include a large, multi-billion-dollar healthcare project in California that is anticipated to be incrementally added to backlog over the next two to three years.
Specialty Contractors Segment
Revenue and loss from construction operations for the Specialty Contractors segment are summarized as follows:
Year Ended December 31,
Loss from construction operations (7.5) (103.3)
Revenue for 2025 increased 43% compared to 2024, primarily due to increased project execution activities on the electrical and mechanical components of various newer projects across diverse end markets, all with substantial scope of work remaining and driven by overall strong market demand.
Loss from construction operations for 2025 was $7.5 million compared to $103.3 million for 2024. The significant improvement was primarily due to contributions related to the increased project execution activities discussed above. Many of these projects are in the early stages and are expected to ramp up substantially over the next several years. The improvement was also driven by a reduction in net unfavorable adjustments in 2025, primarily due to the absence of certain prior-year unfavorable adjustments on several completed projects due to the impact of judgments and settlements that totaled $57.2 million in 2024, including $17.7 million due to an unfavorable judgment on a completed mass-transit project in California and certain other adjustments that were individually immaterial.
Operating margin was (0.9)% in 2025 compared to (17.5)% in 2024. The change in operating margin was mainly attributable to the aforementioned factors that drove the changes revenue and loss from construction operations in 2025.
New awards and contract adjustments in the Specialty Contractors segment totaled $1.1 billion in 2025 compared to $1.7 billion in 2024. The most significant new awards and contract adjustments in 2025 included five mechanical projects in Florida collectively valued at $155 million, $136 million for the electrical component of a mass-transit project in the Northeast, $131 million of additional funding for an electrical project in Texas and another electrical project in Texas valued at more than $100 million.
New awards and contract adjustments in 2024 included the Specialty Contractors segment’s electrical and mechanical scope of work booked as part of the Manhattan Jail project discussed above, two electrical projects in New York collectively valued at $195 million and a $64 million electrical project in Connecticut.
Backlog for the Specialty Contractors segment was $3.1 billion as of December 31, 2025, up 9% compared to $2.8 billion as of December 31, 2024. The Specialty Contractors segment continues to be primarily focused on servicing the Company’s current and prospective large Civil and Building segment projects, particularly in the Northeast and California. We believe that the segment remains well-positioned to continue capturing its share of other new projects, leveraging the strong reputation held by the business units in this segment for high-quality work on large, complex projects.
Corporate, Tax and Other Matters
Corporate General and Administrative Expenses
Corporate general and administrative expenses were $210.8 million in 2025 compared to $110.2 million in 2024. The increase in corporate general and administrative expenses in 2025 compared to 2024 was primarily due to a substantial increase in share-based compensation expense that resulted from a higher stock price, which impacted the fair value of liability-classified awards. The Company currently projects a decrease in share-based compensation expense in 2026 and a much more significant decrease in 2027 as certain such awards have vested and most of the remaining liability-classified awards will vest by the end of 2026. After the Company’s shareholders approved additional shares under the Plan in May 2025, the Company stopped issuing liability-classified, long-term incentive compensation awards, which will help to reduce future earnings volatility.

Other Income, Net, Interest Expense and Income Tax (Expense) Benefit
Year Ended December 31,
Other income, net $ 27.5 $ 19.9
Income tax (expense) benefit (61.4) 50.7
Other income, net for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased $7.6 million compared to the same period in 2024.
Interest expense decreased $34.1 million in 2025 compared to 2024 primarily due to lower outstanding debt driven by the early payoff of the Term Loan B in the first quarter of 2025, as discussed further in Liquidity and Capital Resources.
The effective income tax rate was 30.0% for 2025 compared to 29.3% for 2024. The items that caused a higher effective tax rate in 2025 as compared to 2024 were primarily higher non-deductible expenses, partially offset by higher earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests (for which income taxes are not the responsibility of the Company), federal income tax credits and state income taxes. For a further discussion of income taxes, refer to Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is provided by available cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations, credit facilities and access to capital markets. We have a committed line of credit totaling $170.0 million, which may be used for revolving loans, letters of credit and/or general purposes. We believe that cash generated from operations, along with our unused credit capacity and available cash balances as of December 31, 2025, will be sufficient to fund working capital needs, dividends, share repurchases, and debt maturities for the next 12 months and beyond, as discussed further in Debt below. During the first quarter of 2025, we voluntarily repaid the remaining $121.9 million outstanding balance of the Term Loan B. We generated a record amount of operating cash in 2025, as discussed below in Cash and Working Capital. We expect strong annual operating cash flow to continue in future years, both from project execution activities and the resolution of outstanding claims and change orders. In addition, we expect to continue to benefit from the utilization of available net operating loss carryforwards to reduce our cash outflows for income taxes.
Cash and Working Capital
Cash and cash equivalents were $734.6 million as of December 31, 2025 compared to $455.1 million as of December 31, 2024. Cash immediately available for general corporate purposes was $270.7 million and $265.6 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, with the remainder being amounts held by our consolidated joint ventures and also our proportionate share of cash held by our unconsolidated joint ventures. Cash held by our joint ventures is available only for joint venture-related uses, including distributions to joint venture partners. In addition, our restricted cash and restricted investments totaled $264.6 million as of December 31, 2025 compared to $149.1 million as of December 31, 2024. Restricted cash and restricted investments at December 31, 2025 were primarily held to secure insurance-related contingent obligations and deposits.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, net cash provided by operating activities was $748.1 million, compared to $503.5 million in 2024, representing an increase of $244.6 million, or 49%. The operating cash flow for 2025 was the largest result for any year since the merger between Tutor-Saliba Corporation and Perini Corporation in 2008, and represented the fourth consecutive year of record operating cash flow. The record operating cash flow in 2025 was primarily driven by strong collections on newer and ongoing projects, reflecting a significant increase in project execution and improved working capital management, with additional contributions from a reduction in costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings due to the resolution of certain legacy matters. The operating cash flow in 2024 was primarily driven by collections associated with dispute resolutions.
As noted above, cash flow from operating activities increased $244.6 million when comparing 2025 with 2024. The increase in cash flow from operating activities primarily reflects higher cash generated by earning sources, partially offset by a smaller decrease in net project working capital in 2025 compared to 2024. The smaller decrease in net project working capital in 2025 compared to 2024 was primarily due to current-year increases in accounts receivable, other current assets and retention receivable compared to decreases last year, mostly offset by a larger current-year increase in billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings compared to last year. While both periods were positively impacted by collections associated with previously disputed matters, such collections were significant in 2024 whereas they were comparatively lower in 2025.

Net cash used in investing activities during 2025 was $257.3 million, which was primarily due to the acquisition of property and equipment (i.e., capital expenditures) totaling $180.9 million, mostly related to owner-funded equipment on newer projects, and net cash used in investment transactions of $85.3 million, partially offset by proceeds from the sale of property and equipment of $8.9 million. Net cash used in investing activities during 2024 was $40.7 million, which was primarily due to the acquisition of property and equipment totaling $37.4 million and net cash used in investment transactions of $8.0 million, partially offset by proceeds from the sale of property and equipment of $4.8 million.
Net cash used in financing activities during 2025 was $184.8 million, which was primarily driven by a $130.8 million net repayment of debt (including the $121.9 million repayment of the remaining balance on the Term Loan B discussed below in Debt) and $51.7 million of cash distributions to noncontrolling interests. Net cash used in financing activities during 2024 was $393.3 million, which was primarily driven by a $354.6 million net repayment of debt, $25.1 million of payments for debt issuance costs related to debt transactions during the year and $23.3 million of cash distributions to noncontrolling interests, partially offset by $15.2 million of cash contributions from noncontrolling interests.
As of December 31, 2025, we had working capital of $0.9 billion, a ratio of current assets to current liabilities of 1.27 and a ratio of debt to equity of 0.32 compared to working capital of $1.0 billion, a ratio of current assets to current liabilities of 1.41 and a ratio of debt to equity of 0.46 at December 31, 2024.
Debt
Summarized below are the key terms of our debt as of December 31, 2025. For additional information, refer to Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, as applicable.
2024 Senior Notes Issuance and 2017 Senior Notes Redemption
On April 22, 2024, the Company issued $400.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 11.875% Senior Notes due April 30, 2029 (the “2024 Senior Notes”) in a private placement offering. Interest on the 2024 Senior Notes is payable in arrears semi-annually in April and October of each year, beginning in October 2024. Proceeds from the 2024 Senior Notes were used to redeem the 2017 Senior Notes (as discussed below).
Prior to April 30, 2026, the Company may redeem the 2024 Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus a “make-whole” premium described in the indenture. In addition, prior to April 30, 2026, the Company may redeem up to 40% of the original aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Senior Notes at a redemption price of 111.875% of their principal amount with the “net cash proceeds” received by the Company from one or more equity offerings, as described in the indenture. On or after April 30, 2026, the Company may redeem the 2024 Senior Notes at specified redemption prices described in the indenture. If the Company experiences certain change of control events, holders of the 2024 Senior Notes may require the Company to repurchase all or part of the 2024 Senior Notes at 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.
The 2024 Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are guaranteed by the Company’s existing and future subsidiaries that also guarantee obligations under the Company’s 2020 Credit Agreement. In addition, the indenture for the 2024 Senior Notes provides for customary covenants and includes customary events of default.
The proceeds of the 2024 Senior Notes, together with cash on hand, were used to redeem in full, all of the outstanding obligations in respect of the 2017 Senior Notes. The redemption of the 2017 Senior Notes occurred on May 2, 2024 (the “2017 Senior Notes Redemption”).
2020 Credit Agreement
On August 18, 2020, the Company entered into a credit agreement (as amended, the “2020 Credit Agreement”) with BMO Bank N.A. (f/k/a BMO Harris Bank N.A.), as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer and other lenders. The 2020 Credit Agreement originally provided for a $425.0 million term loan B facility (the “Term Loan B”) and a $175.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”), which was subsequently reduced to $170.0 million following the effectiveness of the 2024 Amendment (as defined and discussed below), with sub-limits for the issuance of letters of credit and swing line loans up to the aggregate amounts of $75.0 million and $10.0 million, respectively. Prior to the 2017 Senior Notes Redemption, if any of the 2017 Senior Notes had remained outstanding beyond certain dates, the maturities of the Term Loan B and the Revolver would have been subject to acceleration (“spring-forward maturity”). However, following the 2017 Senior Notes Redemption and the consummation of the 2024 Amendment, the spring-forward maturity of the Term Loan B is no longer in effect and the spring-forward maturity of the Revolver has been extended (as described below).

Table of Contents
On April 15, 2024, the Company entered into an amendment in respect of the 2020 Credit Agreement (the “2024 Amendment”) which, among other changes, (1) extends the existing Revolver maturity date from August 18, 2025 to (a) if any tranche of the Term Loan B, any incremental term loan or any refinancing term loan (or any refinancing or replacement thereof) remains outstanding, the earlier of (i) May 20, 2027 and (ii) the date that is ninety (90) days prior to the final maturity of any tranche of the Term Loan B, any incremental term loan or any refinancing term loan (or any refinancing or replacement thereof), as applicable, and (b) if no obligations are outstanding with respect to any tranche of the Term Loan B, any incremental term loan or any refinancing term loan, August 18, 2027 and (2) permanently reduces the aggregate commitments in respect of the Revolver by $5.0 million from $175.0 million to $170.0 million. The 2024 Amendment became effective on May 2, 2024 upon the completion of the 2017 Senior Notes Redemption.
Subject to certain exceptions, at any time prior to maturity, the 2020 Credit Agreement provides the Company with the right to increase the commitments under the Revolver and/or to establish one or more term loan facilities in an aggregate amount up to (i) the greater of $173.5 million and 50% LTM EBITDA (as defined in the 2020 Credit Agreement) plus (ii) additional amounts if (A) in the case of pari passu first lien secured indebtedness, the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the 2020 Credit Agreement) does not exceed 1.35:1.00, (B) in the case of junior lien secured indebtedness, the Total Net Leverage Ratio, as defined in the 2020 Credit Agreement, does not exceed 3.50:1.00, and (C) in the case of unsecured indebtedness, (x) the Total Net Leverage Ratio does not exceed 3.50:1.00 or (y) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the 2020 Credit Agreement) is no less than 2.00:1.00. The balances of indebtedness used in the calculations of the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and the Total Net Leverage Ratio include offsets for cash and cash equivalents available for general corporate purposes.
As of December 31, 2025, the Revolver had unused available borrowing capacity of $170.0 million, and the outstanding balance of the 2024 Senior Notes was $400.0 million. During the first quarter of 2025, the Company voluntarily repaid the remaining $121.9 million outstanding balance of the Term Loan B.
Borrowings under the 2020 Credit Agreement bear interest at variable rates, which have increased since the latter part of 2022 due to changes in market conditions that resulted in increases in the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) (and the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) prior to the transition to SOFR), in the case of the Term Loan B, and the administrative agent’s prime lending rate, in the case of the Revolver. Effective May 2, 2023, the 2020 Credit Agreement was amended to transition the Company’s original LIBOR option in respect of the Term Loan B to Adjusted Term SOFR. The average borrowing rates on the Term Loan B and the Revolver for the year ended December 31, 2025 were approximately 9.2% and 10.8%, respectively. At December 31, 2025, the borrowing rate on the Revolver was 10.0%. For more information regarding the terms of our 2020 Credit Agreement, refer to Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
The table below presents our actual and required First Lien Net Leverage Ratio under the 2020 Credit Agreement for the period, which is calculated on a rolling four-quarter basis:
Trailing Four Fiscal Quarters Ended
Actual(a) Required
First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (0.66) to 1.00 < or = 2.25 : 1.00
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
(a)The ratio was negative because the Company’s cash and cash equivalents available for general corporate purposes exceeded secured Indebtedness, resulting in negative First Lien Net Indebtedness, both as defined in the 2020 Credit Agreement.
As of December 31, 2025, we were in compliance and expect to continue to be in compliance with the covenants under the 2020 Credit Agreement.
Equipment Financing and Mortgages
The Company has certain loans entered into for the purchase of specific property, plant and equipment and secured by the assets purchased. The aggregate balance of equipment financing loans was approximately $13.1 million and $19.3 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, with interest rates ranging from 2.54% to 7.32% with equal monthly installment payments over periods up to 5 years. The aggregate balance of mortgage loans was approximately $5.1 million and $5.8 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, with interest rates of SOFR plus 2.00% and monthly installment payments over periods up to 10 years.

Dividends
In November 2025, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.06 per share payable on December 23, 2025 to all shareholders of record as of December 9, 2025. Total dividends declared in 2025 amounted to $3.4 million, including $0.3 million of accrued dividends relating to unvested share-based awards that are payable at the time of vesting.
Share Repurchase Program
In November 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a $200 million share repurchase program. Under this program, the Company plans to purchase outstanding common shares from time to time in open market transactions or through privately negotiated transactions at the Company’s discretion, subject to market conditions and other factors and at such times and in amounts that the Company deems appropriate. There were no share repurchases under this program in 2025.
Contractual Obligations
Our contractual obligations and commitments as of December 31, 2025 include:
•Debt obligations of $425.4 million (of which $14.6 million are due in 2026) and interest payments of $168.4 million (of which $48.4 million are due in 2026) based on rates in effect as of December 31, 2025. See Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further detail of our debt and the timing of expected future principal and interest payments.
•Operating lease obligations of $84.9 million (of which $16.5 million are due in 2026). See Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further detail of our lease obligations and the timing of expected future payments.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Estimates are based on information available through the date of the issuance of the financial statements; accordingly, actual results in future periods could differ from these estimates. Significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements apply to the following critical accounting policies:
Method of Accounting for Contracts — Contract revenue is recognized over time using the cost-to-cost method which measures progress towards completion based on the ratio of contract costs incurred to date compared to total estimated costs for each performance obligation. The estimates used in accounting for contracts with customers require judgment and assumptions regarding both future events and the evaluation of contingencies such as the impact of change orders, liability claims, other contract disputes, the achievement of contractual performance standards and potential variances in project schedule and costs. Changes to the total estimated contract cost, either due to unexpected events or revisions to management’s initial estimates, for a given project are recognized in the period in which they are determined.
In certain instances, we provide guaranteed completion dates and/or achievement of other performance criteria. Failure to meet schedule or performance guarantees could result in unrealized incentive fees and/or liquidated damages. In addition, depending on the type of contract, unexpected increases in contract cost may be unrecoverable, resulting in total cost exceeding revenue realized from the projects. The Company generally provides limited warranties for work performed, with warranty periods typically extending for a limited duration following substantial completion of the Company’s work on a project. Historically, warranty claims have not resulted in material costs incurred.

Claims arising from construction contracts have been made against the Company by customers, and the Company has made claims against customers for costs incurred in excess of current contract provisions. The Company recognizes revenue for claims as variable consideration in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). Assumptions as to the occurrence of future events and the likelihood and amount of variable consideration are made during the contract performance period. Estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price are based largely on an assessment of anticipated performance and all information (historical, current and forecasted) that is reasonably available to management. Estimated amounts are only included in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. Back charges to suppliers or subcontractors are recognized as a reduction of cost when it is determined that recovery of such cost is probable and the amounts can be reliably estimated. Disputed back charges are recognized when the same requirements described above for variable consideration have been satisfied.
See Executive Overview and Results of Segment Operations sections for further discussion and quantification of material charges related to changes in estimates resulting from legal judgments or decisions, settlements and other project charges.
Construction Joint Ventures — Certain contracts are executed through joint ventures. The arrangements are often formed for the execution of single contracts or projects and allow the Company to share risks and secure specialty skills required for project execution.
In accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”) the Company assesses its joint ventures at inception to determine if any meet the qualifications of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). The Company considers a joint venture a VIE if either (a) the total equity investment is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, (b) characteristics of a controlling financial interest are missing (either the ability to make decisions through voting or other rights, the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity or the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity), or (c) the voting rights of the equity holders are not proportional to their obligations to absorb the expected losses of the entity and/or their rights to receive the expected residual returns of the entity and substantially all of the entity’s activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights. Upon the occurrence of certain events outlined in ASC 810, the Company reassesses its initial determination of whether the joint venture is a VIE.
The Company also evaluates whether it is the primary beneficiary of each VIE and consolidates the VIE if the Company has both (a) the power to direct the economically significant activities of the entity and (b) the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company considers the contractual agreements that define the ownership structure, distribution of profits and losses, risks, responsibilities, indebtedness, voting rights and board representation of the respective parties in determining whether it qualifies as the primary beneficiary. The Company also considers all parties that have direct or implicit variable interests when determining whether it is the primary beneficiary. When the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary, the VIE is consolidated. In accordance with ASC 810, management’s assessment of whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE is performed continuously.
For construction joint ventures that do not need to be fully consolidated but qualify for the equity method of accounting, the Company accounts for its interest in the joint ventures using the proportionate consolidation method, whereby the Company’s proportionate share of the joint ventures’ assets, liabilities, revenue and cost of operations are included in the appropriate classifications in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated. See Note 1(b) and Note 13 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion regarding VIEs.
Recoverability of Goodwill — Goodwill represents the excess of amounts paid over the fair value of net assets acquired from an acquisition. In order to determine the amount of goodwill resulting from an acquisition, we perform an assessment to determine the value of the acquired company's tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities. In our assessment, we determine whether identifiable intangible assets exist, which typically include backlog, customer relationships and trade names.
We test goodwill for impairment annually as of October 1 of each year. This test requires us to estimate the fair value of each reporting unit carrying goodwill using income and market approaches, and to compare the calculated fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value, which is equal to the reporting unit’s net assets. If the calculated fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, we recognize an impairment charge equal to the difference.
The impairment evaluation process requires assumptions that are subject to a high degree of judgment such as revenue growth rates, profitability levels, discount rates, industry market multiples and weighted-average cost of capital. Changes in these assumptions would impact the results of our impairment tests.
31
Table of Contents
During interim periods, including those subsequent to the Company’s October 1 annual test date, we evaluate events and circumstances, including, but not limited to, an examination of macroeconomic conditions, cost factors, overall financial performance by each reporting unit, other relevant entity-specific events, and trends in the stock prices of our Company and peers to determine if such factors indicate that it is likely that the goodwill for one or more of our reporting units is impaired, thus warranting the performance of a quantitative impairment test sooner than the fourth quarter of the year.
During the fourth quarter of 2025, we conducted our annual goodwill impairment test and determined that goodwill was not impaired since the estimated fair value of the Civil reporting unit exceeded its net book value by a significant amount. However, there is a risk of goodwill impairment if future events are less favorable than what we assumed or estimated in our impairment analysis.
The Company has considered relevant events and circumstances since the annual goodwill impairment test, including, but not limited to, an examination of macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, cost factors, overall financial performance by each reporting unit, other relevant entity-specific events, and trends in the stock prices of the Company and its peers. In considering the totality of qualitative factors known as of the reporting date, we determined that no triggering events occurred or circumstances changed since our October 1, 2025 annual test that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the Civil reporting unit below its carrying amount. We will continue to monitor events occurring or circumstances changing which may suggest that goodwill should be reevaluated. These events and circumstances include, but are not limited to, changes in the overall financial performance of the Civil reporting unit and other quantitative and qualitative factors specific to the Civil reporting unit which indicate potential triggering events that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the Civil reporting unit below its carrying amount.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading, speculation or other purposes that would expose the Company to market risk. In the normal course of business, our results of operations are exposed to certain market risks, primarily associated with fluctuations in interest rates. Borrowings under our 2020 Credit Agreement and certain other debt obligations have variable interest rates subject to interest rate risk. See Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of our 2020 Credit Agreement. As of December 31, 2025, we did not have any significant outstanding borrowings with variable interest rates.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures — An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined by Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of December 31, 2025 was made under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, in that they are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Our disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information we are required to disclose in such reports is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting — Our management, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate system of internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f). In designing and evaluating our system of internal control over financial reporting, we recognize that inherent limitations exist in any control system no matter how well designed and operated, and we can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In making this assessment, management utilized the criteria issued in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2025, our internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. In addition, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate due to changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies and procedures may deteriorate.
Deloitte & Touche LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, has issued an attestation report on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting — There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Tutor Perini Corporation
Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Tutor Perini Corporation and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, of the Company and our report dated February 26, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
