DOTHAN, AL, May 8, 2026 – Construction Partners, Inc. (NASDAQ: ROAD) (“CPI” or the “Company”), a vertically integrated civil infrastructure company specializing in the construction and maintenance of roadways in local markets throughout the Sunbelt, today reported financial and operating results for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2026.

Fred J. (Jule) Smith, III, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We delivered a strong quarter, driven by exceptional execution across the business. Our teams throughout our family of companies performed at a high level, consistently outperforming on project delivery, productivity, and safety. Favorable weather conditions further supported our ability to advance work efficiently and exceed expectations. Additionally, energy cost volatility had a limited impact on results due to the pass-through nature of our project contracts, as well as the physical hedge inherent to our vertical integration. Strong financial performance in the quarter led to 35 percent growth in both revenue and Adjusted EBITDA, including 11 percent organic revenue growth. Our local teams across our Sunbelt footprint continued to capture meaningful project wins, driving our backlog to a record $3.14 billion. With the peak construction season ahead in the second half of our fiscal year, we are raising our FY 2026 outlook, and we are well-positioned to execute against this record backlog and sustain our growth momentum.”

Revenues were $769.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, an increase of 34.5% compared to $571.7 million in the same quarter last year.

Gross profit was $98.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to $71.4 million in the same quarter last year.

General and administrative expenses were $63.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to $46.7 million in the same quarter last year, and as a percentage of total revenues, was 8.3%, compared to 8.2% in the same quarter last year.

Net income was $9.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 and diluted earnings per share were $0.16, compared to net income of $4.2 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.08 in the same quarter last year.

Adjusted net income(1) was $10.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to Adjusted net income of $4.4 million in the same quarter last year. Using Adjusted net income, diluted earnings per share would have been $0.18 for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to $0.08 in the same quarter last year.

Adjusted EBITDA(1) in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $93.3 million, an increase of 34.6% compared to $69.3 million in the same quarter last year.

Project backlog was a record $3.14 billion at March 31, 2026, compared to $2.84 billion at March 31, 2025 and $3.09 billion at December 31, 2025.

Smith added, “Our performance is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our people. A deeply embedded culture of operational excellence, disciplined project execution, and an unwavering commitment to safety continues to unite our family of companies, driving results and reinforcing CPI’s reputation as an acquirer of choice across our eight-state footprint. We were pleased to have completed our latest strategic acquisition in April with the purchase of Four Star Paving by our Tennessee platform company, Pavement Restorations, Inc. (“PRI”). This transaction strengthens our vertical integration of services and enhances our capabilities and scale across the middle Tennessee region. As the Nashville metro area continues to rapidly grow,

we are now better positioned than ever to participate in the resulting construction projects and opportunities. Reflecting our strong second quarter results and incorporating the expected contribution of Four Star Paving, we are raising our fiscal 2026 outlook ranges. We remain confident in CPI’s growth trajectory and expanding profitability and are focused on delivering long-term value for our investors and other stakeholders.”

The Company is raising its outlook for fiscal year 2026 with regard to revenue, net income, Adjusted net income, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as follows:

•Revenue in the range of $3.590 billion to $3.650 billion

•Net income in the range of $159.0 million to $162.0 million

•Adjusted net income(1) in the range $170.4 million to $174.2 million

•Adjusted EBITDA(1) in the range of $552.0 million to $564.0 million

•Adjusted EBITDA margin(1) in the range of 15.38% to 15.45%

Ned N. Fleming, III, the Company’s Executive Chairman, stated, “We are pleased with our team’s strong execution this quarter as we continue to advance CPI’s proven growth strategy. Our differentiated business model, built on cost pass-through, vertical integration, and a decentralized partnership approach, remains a powerful and often underappreciated driver of sustainable results. Supported by a strong balance sheet, disciplined leadership, and an expanding Sunbelt footprint, CPI is well-positioned to compound shareholder value through both geographic expansion and increasing operational scale. The long-term demand environment remains compelling. Growing infrastructure repair and maintenance needs, sustained population migration, economic expansion, and rising roadway capacity demands across the Sunbelt continue to create a durable and growing addressable market for our services. Against this powerful backdrop, the Board and I remain highly confident in CPI’s long-term trajectory and the significant opportunities ahead.”

Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before, as applicable from time to time, (i) interest expense, net, (ii) provision (benefit) for income taxes, (iii) depreciation, depletion, accretion and amortization, (iv) share-based compensation expense, (v) loss on the extinguishment of debt, and (vi) nonrecurring expenses related to transformative acquisitions, which management considers to include transactions of a size that would require clearance under federal antitrust laws. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues for each period. Adjusted net income represents net income before (i) nonrecurring expenses related to transformative acquisitions, which management considers to include transactions of a size that would require clearance under federal antitrust laws, and (ii) nonrecurring fees associated with financing arrangements incurred in connection with transformative acquisitions. These metrics are supplemental measures of our operating performance that are neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, GAAP. These measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of our operating performance. We present Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted net income because management uses these measures as key performance indicators, and we believe that securities analysts, investors and others use these measures to evaluate companies in our industry. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted net income may not be comparable to similarly named measures reported by other companies. Potential differences may include differences in capital structures, tax positions and the age and book depreciation of intangible and tangible assets.

The following tables present a reconciliation of net income, the most directly comparable measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, to (i) Adjusted net income and (ii) Adjusted EBITDA (with the resulting calculation of Adjusted EBITDA margin) for the applicable periods.
