Item 2.02.

Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

During the third quarter of 2018, Granite Construction Incorporated, (the “Company”), revised its reportable business segments as a result of a change in how the Company’s chief operating decision maker (its Chief Executive Officer) regularly reviews financial information to allocate resources and assess performance. This change is consistent with the Company’s strategic, end-market diversification strategy. The Company’s new reportable segments, which correspond to this end-market focus, are: Transportation, Water, Specialty and Materials. The end-market segments Transportation, Water and Specialty replace the Construction and Large Project Construction reportable segments, with the composition of our Materials segment remaining unchanged except for the addition of certain material production activity related to the acquisition of Layne Christensen Company.

For investors who may want to consider the effects of the above in advance of the announcement of third quarter 2018 results, Granite is presenting unaudited financial information for the new reportable segments in the following tables. Specifically presented are segment net revenue, gross profit (loss) and gross margin (loss) for the first and second quarters of 2018, first, second, third quarters and year ended 2017 and year ended 2016. Information on segment assets and related depreciation, depletion and amortization will be presented in the respective Form 10-Q and 10-K reports beginning with the Form 10-Q report for the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Reclassifications: Certain reclassifications of prior period amounts have been made to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications included $7.0 million, $9.2 million and $2.6 million during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 and the three months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, of gross profit to the Materials segment primarily from the former Construction segment to better align costs with the respective segments. These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported operating income (loss) or net income (loss), or on the consolidated balance sheets or statements of cash flows.

Overview of New Reportable Segments

Transportation

This segment focuses on construction and rehabilitation of roads, pavement preservation, bridges, rail lines, airports and marine ports for use by the general public.

Water

This segment focuses on water-related construction and water management solutions for municipal agencies, commercial water suppliers, industrial facilities and energy companies. It also provides trenchless renewal and cured-in-place pipe rehabilitation.

Specialty

This segment focuses on construction of various complex projects including infrastructure / site development, mining, public safety, tunnel and power projects.

Materials

This segment focuses on production of aggregates, asphalt and proprietary sanitary and storm water rehabilitation products including cured-in-place pipe felt and fiberglass-based lining tubes all for internal use and for sale to third parties.

 



The following tables present unaudited summarized segment information for the first and second quarters of 2018, the year ended 2017, each of the 2017 quarterly periods and the year ended 2016 (dollars in thousands):
