Management Commentary
“Everus’ strong first quarter results reflect robust opportunities across our diverse end markets, efficient project execution and record backlog,” said Jeffrey S. Thiede, president and CEO of Everus. “Our electrical and mechanical segment increased revenues 47% with growth across all end markets, particularly data center work, and our transmission and distribution segment also had solid results with strong project execution.
“Our record backlog was up 10% from year-end and more than 40% compared to first quarter last year, with growth in both the E&M and T&D segments. We saw continued strong project opportunities across our diverse service offerings, particularly for data center, hospitality, undergrounding and high-tech work. With our successful track record of executing on complex projects and our long-term customer relationships, we remain well-positioned to benefit from favorable secular demand drivers, including high-tech reshoring, data center construction and utility infrastructure investments, giving us the opportunity to continue growing backlog.
“Based on our strong first quarter results and continued favorable market outlook, balanced against economic uncertainties and typical project timing movement, we are maintaining our guidance for 2025. We are confident with our favorable backlog trends, attractive financial position and our focus on our 4EVER strategy that we remain on track to execute on our long-term financial targets to drive value for shareholders.”
First Quarter 2025 Consolidated Results
Revenues increased 32.1% to $826.6 million in the first quarter of 2025, compared to $625.7 million in the first quarter of 2024. Electrical and mechanical revenues grew $207.2 million, or 47.0%, and transmission and distribution revenues declined $3.5 million, or 1.9%.
Gross profit increased 23.8% to $92.5 million in the first quarter of 2025, compared to $74.7 million in the first quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily driven by higher revenues due to project timing and efficiency gains on certain projects, partially offset by higher operating costs and lower gross profit margin from changes in project mix. Gross profit margin was 11.2% in the first quarter of 2025, compared to 11.9% in the first quarter of 2024.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $41.5 million in the first quarter of 2025, compared to $35.8 million in the first quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily driven by higher labor and professional service-related expenses, including incremental stand-alone operating costs, to support the operational growth of the business.
Net income increased 30.1% to $36.7 million, or diluted EPS of 72 cents, in the first quarter of 2025, compared to $28.2 million, or diluted EPS of 55 cents, in the first quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily from increased gross profit and higher income from joint ventures, partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses, including incremental stand-alone operating costs, and interest expense related to the company's borrowing arrangements. Net income margin was 4.4% in the first quarter of 2025, compared to 4.5% in the first quarter of 2024.

EBITDA increased 31.8% to $61.8 million in the first quarter of 2025, compared to $46.9 million in the first quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily from higher revenues and higher income from joint ventures, partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses, including stand-alone operating costs. EBITDA margin was 7.5%, consistent with the first quarter of 2024.
Backlog increased to $3.1 billion as of March 31, 2025, up 10.0% compared to $2.8 billion as of Dec. 31, 2024, and up 40.5% compared to $2.2 billion as of March 31, 2024.
First Quarter 2025 Segment Results
Electrical and Mechanical
E&M segment revenues increased 47.0% to $648.2 million in the first quarter of 2025, compared to $441.0 million in the first quarter of 2024. The increase was driven by higher workloads in each of the E&M end markets, particularly growth in the data center submarket.
E&M segment net income increased to $36.6 million during the first quarter of 2025, compared to $23.0 million in the first quarter of 2024. E&M segment net income margin was 5.6%, up compared to 5.2% in the first quarter of 2024.
E&M segment EBITDA increased 50.9% to $49.5 million in the first quarter of 2025, compared to $32.8 million in the first quarter of 2024. The increase was driven by higher revenues, higher income from joint ventures and efficiency gains on certain projects, partially offset by changes in project mix and higher selling, general and administrative expenses. E&M segment EBITDA margin was 7.6%, up compared to 7.4% in the first quarter of 2024.
E&M backlog increased to $2.7 billion as of March 31, 2025, up 7.9% compared to $2.5 billion as of Dec. 31, 2024, and up 46.3% compared to $1.8 billion as of March 31, 2024.
Transmission and Distribution
T&D segment revenues were $185.0 million during the first quarter of 2025, compared to $188.5 million in the first quarter of 2024. The utility end market experienced slightly lower workloads due in part to weather-related impacts and reductions in the storm and distribution submarkets, partially offset by growth in the underground submarket. The utility end market declines were partially offset by increased workloads in the transportation end market, particularly in the traffic signalization submarket.
T&D segment net income increased to $10.5 million during the first quarter of 2025, compared to $10.2 million in the first quarter of 2024. T&D segment net income margin was 5.7%, up compared to 5.4% in the first quarter of 2024.
T&D segment EBITDA increased 5.8% to $20.1 million in the first quarter of 2025, compared to $19.0 million in the first quarter of 2024. The modest increase was primarily from solid project execution and lower selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by lower revenues. T&D segment EBITDA margin was 10.9%, up compared to 10.1% in the first quarter of 2024.
T&D backlog increased to $353.1 million as of March 31, 2025, up 29.1% compared to $273.6 million as of Dec. 31, 2024, and up 7.9% compared to $327.1 million as of March 31, 2024.

•Revenue is expected to be in the range of $3.0 billion to $3.1 billion.
•EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $210 million to $225 million, with EBITDA margins expected to be lower than in 2024 due to stand-alone operating costs and associated dis-synergies.

Basis of Presentation
Prior to the spinoff from MDU Resources Group, Inc. on Oct. 31, 2024, Everus Construction, Inc., including its subsidiaries, operated as a wholly owned subsidiary of CEHI, LLC (Centennial) and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of MDU Resources and not as a stand-alone company. Following the separation, Everus Construction is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Everus. As a result, for periods prior to the separation, Everus' financial information, including the results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, was prepared on a “carve-out” basis in connection with the spinoff and was derived from the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of MDU Resources as if Everus operated on a stand-alone basis. The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for periods presented prior to the spinoff have been retrospectively adjusted to the number of shares outstanding on Oct. 31, 2024, the separation and distribution date. It is assumed that there were no dilutive or anti-dilutive equity instruments as of Oct. 31 because there were no Everus stock-based awards outstanding for periods prior to the separation.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Throughout this news release, Everus presents financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), as well as non-GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA, EBITDA margin, net debt, net leverage and free cash flow, and, in some cases, applicable measures by segment. The use of these non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as alternatives to net income, net income margin, total debt, gross leverage and cash provided by (used in) operating activities. Everus believes the use of these non-GAAP financial measures are beneficial in evaluating the company's financial performance. Please refer to the Non-GAAP Financial Measures sections contained in this news release for additional information.

Backlog
Backlog is a common measurement in the construction services industry. Everus' determination of backlog can include projects that have a written award, a letter of intent, a notice to proceed, an agreed upon work order to perform work on mutually accepted terms, and conditions and change orders or claims to the extent management believes additional contract revenues will be earned and are deemed probable of collection. Contracts are subject to delays, defaults or cancellations; changes in scope of services to be provided; and adjustments to costs. Backlog also may be affected by project delays or cancellations resulting from weather conditions, external market factors and economic factors beyond Everus' control, among other things. Accordingly, there is no assurance that backlog will be realized. For the periods presented in the following backlog table, Everus did not experience any material impacts related to delays or cancellations of planned projects included in backlog. The timing of contract awards, including contracts awarded pursuant to Master Service Agreements, duration of large new contracts and the mix of services can significantly affect backlog. Backlog at any given point in time may not accurately represent revenue or net income realized in any period, and backlog as of the end of the year may not be indicative of revenue or net income expected to be realized in the following year. Backlog should not be relied upon as a stand-alone indicator of future results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to information prepared in accordance with GAAP, the company evaluates operating performance using the non-GAAP financial measures of EBITDA, EBITDA margin, net debt and net leverage, and, in some cases, applicable measures by segment, and evaluates its liquidity using the non-GAAP financial measure of free cash flow. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of the company's results as reported under GAAP. Because of these limitations, EBITDA, EBITDA margin, net debt, net leverage and free cash flow should not be considered as replacements for net income, net income margin, total debt, gross leverage and cash provided by (used in) operating activities, the most comparable GAAP measures, respectively. Non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized; therefore, it may not be possible to compare them with other companies’ EBITDA, EBITDA margin, net debt, net leverage and free cash flow having the same or similar names.
EBITDA and EBITDA Margin
Everus utilizes EBITDA and EBITDA margin to consistently assess its operating performance and as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting, since the company believes EBITDA closely correlates to long-term enterprise value. Everus believes that measuring performance on an EBITDA basis is useful to investors, because it enables a more consistent evaluation of its period-to-period operational performance. Everus also believes these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to the corresponding GAAP measures of net income and net income margin, are useful to investors and provide meaningful information about operational efficiency by excluding the impacts of differences in tax jurisdictions and structures, debt levels and capital investment. Investors also may use EBITDA to calculate leverage as a multiple of EBITDA. Management uses EBITDA and EBITDA margin, in addition to GAAP metrics, to evaluate the company's operating results, calculate compensation packages and determine leverage as a multiple of EBITDA to establish the appropriate funding of operations.
EBITDA is calculated by adding back interest expense, net of interest income, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization to net income. EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing EBITDA by operating revenues.
The following table reconciles net income to EBITDA and provides the calculation of EBITDA margin.

Net Debt and Net Leverage
Everus uses net debt and net leverage as a measure of assessing its borrowing capacity and achieving its optimal capital structure. The company believe these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to the corresponding GAAP measures of total debt and gross leverage, are useful to investors because they provide insight into how long it would take the company to pay back its debt if net debt and EBITDA were constant.
Net debt is calculated by adding unamortized debt issuance costs to the total debt balance on the balance sheet, less any unrestricted cash. Net leverage is calculated by dividing net debt by trailing 12-month EBITDA.

Free Cash Flow
Everus uses free cash flow as a measure of liquidity that indicates how much cash the company can produce after taking cash outflows from operations and assets into consideration. The company believes this non-GAAP financial measure, in addition to the corresponding GAAP measure of cash provided by (used in) operating activities, is useful to investors because it provides meaningful information about the company’s financial health and ability to generate cash, support additional debt obligations, pay future dividends and fund growth. Free cash flow does not represent residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes.
Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less net capital expenditures.
The following table reconciles cash provided by operating activities to free cash flow.

Non-GAAP Financial Guidance
The company is unable to reconcile forward-looking non-GAAP financial guidance relating to full-year 2025 EBITDA margin to its nearest GAAP measure because the company is unable to predict the timing of these adjustments with a reasonable degree of certainty. By their very nature, non-GAAP adjustments are difficult to anticipate with precision because they are generally associated with unexpected and unplanned events that impact the company and its financial results. Therefore, the company is unable to provide the reconciliation of full-year 2025 EBITDA margin guidance without unreasonable efforts.
