Granite Construction Incorporated (NYSE: GVA) (“Granite”) announced today that it has priced its previously announced offering of $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.375% senior notes due 2034 (the “Notes”) in a private offering that is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”). The Notes will be guaranteed by each of Granite’s existing and future domestic subsidiaries that is a borrower or guarantor under Granite’s existing credit facility, subject to certain exceptions. The consummation of the offering of the Notes is expected to be completed on June 2, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions.

Granite intends to use the net proceeds from the offering, together with cash on hand and any cash payments received from the financial institutions that are counterparties to the capped call transactions related to the Company’s outstanding 3.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2028 (the “2028 Notes”), to redeem all of the outstanding 2028 Notes and settle any conversions in connection therewith following the offering and, if applicable, as discussed below, to repay borrowings under its revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.

The estimated market value of the 2028 Notes is approximately $827.3 million, based on the closing price of our common stock on the NYSE on May 15, 2026 of $138.55 per share. Granite expects that all or substantially all of the holders of the 2028 Notes will elect to convert their notes in connection with the notice of redemption, and it may decide to settle such conversions partially in shares of Granite common stock. If Granite elects to do so, the amount of cash used by it to settle any conversions would be correspondingly reduced. As a result, to the extent there are any net proceeds remaining from the offering following settlement of any conversions and redemption of the 2028 Notes, Granite intends to use such proceeds to repay borrowings outstanding under its revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.

In connection with any conversions or redemption of the 2028 Notes, Granite expects to unwind and terminate the capped call transactions it entered into in connection with the original issuance of the 2028 Notes. In such unwind and termination, Granite would receive an amount from the financial institutions that are counterparties to the capped call transactions equal to the fair value of such transactions, determined at the time of the unwind and termination.

The Notes and the related guarantees have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption therefrom. Accordingly, the Notes will be offered only to persons reasonably believed to be “qualified institutional buyers” under Rule 144A of the Securities Act and to persons outside the United States under Regulation S.

This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes, and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale of any Notes in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. The information contained in this news release does not constitute a notice of redemption with respect to any of the 2028 Notes.
