Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
Note 1. Overview and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
Arcosa, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries ("Arcosa," the "Company," "we," or "our"), headquartered in Dallas, Texas, is a provider of infrastructure-related products and solutions with leading positions in construction, engineered structures, and transportation markets in North America. Arcosa is a Delaware corporation and was incorporated in 2018 as an independent, publicly-traded company, listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited and have been prepared from the books and records of Arcosa, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. All normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of the Company and the results of operations, comprehensive income/loss, and cash flows have been made in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP"). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Because of seasonal and other factors, the financial condition and results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 may not be indicative of Arcosa's expected business, financial condition, and results of operations for the year ending December 31, 2024.
These interim financial statements and notes are condensed as permitted by the instructions to Form 10-Q and should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Stockholders' Equity
In December 2022, the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") authorized a new $50.0 million share repurchase program effective January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2024 to replace a program of the same amount that expired on December 31, 2022. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company did not repurchase any shares. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had a remaining authorization of $36.2 million under the program.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is measured based on the allocation of the transaction price in a contract to satisfied performance obligations. The transaction price does not include any amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product or service to a customer. The following is a description of principal activities from which the Company generates its revenue, separated by reportable segments. Payments for our products and services are generally due within normal commercial terms. For a further discussion regarding the Company's reportable segments, see Note 4 Segment Information.
Construction Products
The Construction Products segment recognizes substantially all revenue when the customer has accepted the product and legal title of the product has passed to the customer.
Engineered Structures
Within the Engineered Structures segment, revenue is recognized for wind towers and certain utility structures over time as the products are manufactured using an input approach based on the costs incurred relative to the total estimated costs of production. We recognize revenue over time for these products as they are highly customized to the needs of an individual customer resulting in no alternative use to the Company if not purchased by the customer after the contract is executed. In addition, we have the right to bill the customer for our work performed to date plus at least a reasonable profit margin for work performed. As of September 30, 2024, we had a contract asset of $77.3 million related to these contracts, compared to $66.8 million as of December 31, 2023, which is included in receivables, net of allowance, within the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The increase in the contract asset is attributed to timing of deliveries of finished structures to customers during the period. For all other products, revenue is recognized when the customer has accepted the product and legal title of the product has passed to the customer.
Transportation Products
The Transportation Products segment recognizes revenue when the customer has accepted the product and legal title of the product has passed to the customer.

Table of Contents
Unsatisfied Performance Obligations
The following table includes estimated revenue expected to be recognized in future periods related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially satisfied as of September 30, 2024 and the percentage of the outstanding performance obligations as of September 30, 2024 expected to be delivered during the remainder of 2024:
| Unsatisfied performance obligations as of September 30, 2024 | ||||
|
Total Amount |
Percent expected to be delivered in 2024 | |||
| (in millions) | ||||
| Engineered Structures: | ||||
| Utility, wind, and related structures | $ | 1,264.6 | 20 | % |
| Transportation Products: | ||||
| Inland barges | $ | 244.7 | 32 | % |
Of the remaining unsatisfied performance obligations for utility, wind, and related structures, 47%are expected to be delivered during 2025 with the remainder expected to be delivered through 2028. All of the remaining unsatisfied performance obligations for inland barges are expected to be delivered during 2025.
Income Taxes
The liability method is used to account for income taxes. Deferred income taxes represent the tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Valuation allowances reduce deferred tax assets to an amount that will more likely than not be realized.
The Company regularly evaluates the likelihood of realization of tax benefits derived from positions it has taken in various federal and state filings after consideration of all relevant facts, circumstances, and available information. For those tax positions that are deemed more likely than not to be sustained, the Company recognizes the benefit it believes is cumulatively greater than 50% likely to be realized. To the extent the Company were to prevail in matters for which accruals have been established or be required to pay amounts in excess of recorded reserves, the effective tax rate in a given financial statement period could be materially impacted.
Financial Instruments
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments to be cash and cash equivalents if purchased with a maturity of three months or less.Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk are primarily cash investments and receivables. The Company places its cash investments in bank deposits and highly-rated money market funds, and its investment policy limits the amount of credit exposure to any one commercial issuer. We seek to limit concentrations of credit risk with respect to receivables with control procedures that monitor the credit worthiness of customers, together with the large number of customers in the Company's customer base and their dispersion across different industries and geographic areas. As receivables are generally unsecured, the Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon the expected credit losses. Receivable balances determined to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance. To accelerate the conversion to cash, the Company may sell a portion of its trade receivables to third parties. The Company has no recourse to these receivables once they are sold but may have continuing involvement related to servicing and collection activities. The impact of these transactions in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was not significant. The carrying values of cash, receivables, and accounts payable are considered to be representative of their respective fair values.

Table of Contents
Derivative Instruments
The Company may, from time to time, use derivative instruments to mitigate the impact of changes in interest rates, commodity prices, or changes in foreign currency exchange rates. For derivative instruments designated as hedges, the Company formally documents the relationship between the derivative instrument and the hedged item, as well as the risk management objective and strategy for the use of the derivative instrument. This documentation includes linking the derivative to specific assets or liabilities on the balance sheet, commitments, or forecasted transactions. At the time a derivative instrument is entered into, and at least quarterly thereafter, the Company assesses whether the derivative instrument is effective in offsetting the changes in fair value or cash flows of the hedged item. Any change in the fair value of the hedged instrument is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCL") as a separate component of stockholders' equity and reclassified into earnings in the period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. When derivative instruments are in place, the Company monitors its positions and the credit ratings of its counterparties to mitigate the risk of loss due to counterparties' non-performance.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
Effective January 1, 2024, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures" ("ASU 2023-07"), which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The Company will adopt additional disclosure requirements within its annual reporting for the year ending December 31, 2024 and its interim reporting for the quarter ending March 31, 2025.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements not adopted as of September 30, 2024
In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures" ("ASU 2023-09"), which is intended to improve the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring 1) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and 2) income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The standard also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 will become effective for public companies during annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. Although ASU 2023-09 only modifies the Company's required income tax disclosures, the Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
Note 2. Acquisitions and Divestitures
2024 Acquisitions
On October 1, 2024, we completed the acquisition of the construction materials business of Stavola Holding Corporation and its affiliated entities ("Stavola") for $1.2 billion in cash, subject to certain customary purchase price adjustments. Stavola, which will be reported within the Construction Products segment, is an aggregates-led and vertically integrated construction materials company primarily serving the New York-New Jersey Metropolitan Statistical Area ("MSA") through its network of five hard rock natural aggregates quarries, twelve asphalt plants, and three recycled aggregates sites. We are currently in the process of finalizing the accounting for this transaction and expect to complete the preliminary allocation of the purchase consideration in the fourth quarter of 2024. The acquisition was financed with a combination of a $600 million issuance of fixed-rate senior unsecured notes that closed in August 2024 following the announcement of the acquisition and a $700 million borrowing of a variable-rate secured term loan that closed on October 1, 2024 concurrent with the completion of the acquisition. See Note 7 Debt for additional information.
In July 2024, we completed the acquisition of a Phoenix, Arizona based natural aggregates business in our Construction Products segment, for a total purchase price of $35.0 million.

In April 2024, we completed the acquisition of Ameron Pole Products LLC ("Ameron"), a leading manufacturer of highly engineered, premium concrete and steel poles for a broad range of infrastructure applications, including lighting, traffic, electric distribution, and small-cell telecom, for a total purchase price of $180.0 million. With operations in Alabama, California, and Oklahoma, Ameron is included in our Engineered Structures segment. The acquisition was funded with $160.0 million of borrowings under our revolving credit facility and cash on hand. The acquisition was recorded as a business combination based on a preliminary valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their acquisition date fair value using unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities ("Level 3" inputs). The preliminary valuation resulted in the recognition of, among others, $56.5 million of property, plant, and equipment, $27.1 million of customer relationships, $18.1 million of inventory, $12.8 million of technology, $12.0 million of accounts receivable, $8.9 million of trademarks and $42.8 million of goodwill in our Engineered Structures segment. The goodwill acquired, which is tax-deductible, primarily relates to Ameron's market position and existing workforce. We expect to complete our purchase price allocation as soon as reasonably possible, not to exceed one year from the acquisition date. Adjustments to the preliminary purchase price allocation could be material, particularly with respect to our preliminary estimates of property, plant, and equipment, customer relationships, and technology.
2023 Acquisitions
In December 2023, we completed the acquisition of certain assets and liabilities of Lake Point Holdings, LLC and Lake Point Restoration LLC, (collectively "Lake Point") a Florida based natural aggregates business in our Construction Products segment, for a total purchase price of $65.1 million. The acquisition was funded with $60.0 million of borrowings under our revolving credit facility and cash on hand. The acquisition was recorded as a business combination based on a valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their acquisition date fair value using Level 3 inputs. The preliminary valuation resulted in the recognition of, among others, $13.2 million of property, plant, and equipment, $19.1 million of mineral reserves, $11.5 million of permits, and $15.4 million of goodwill in our Construction Products segment. We expect to complete our purchase price allocation as soon as reasonably possible, not to exceed one year from the acquisition date. Adjustments to the preliminary purchase price allocation could be material, particularly with respect to our preliminary estimates of mineral reserves, permits, and property, plant, and equipment.
In October 2023, we completed the acquisition of certain assets and liabilities of a Phoenix, Arizona based recycled aggregates business and the acquisition of certain assets and liabilities of a Florida based recycled aggregates business in our Construction Products segment. The purchase prices of these acquisitions were not significant.
In September 2023, we completed the acquisition of certain assets and liabilities of a Houston, Texas based stabilized sand producer in our Construction Products segment. The purchase price of the acquisition was not significant.
In March 2023, we completed the stock acquisition of a Houston, Texas based shoring, trench, and excavation products business in our Construction Products segment. In February 2023, we completed the acquisition of certain assets and liabilities of a Phoenix, Arizona based recycled aggregates business in our Construction Products segment. The purchase prices of these acquisitions were not significant.
Divestitures
On August 16, 2024, the Company completed the sale of its steel components business. The steel components business, previously reported in the Transportation Products segment, is a leading supplier of railcar coupling devices, railcar axles, and circular forgings. The total consideration for the divestiture was $110.0 million consisting of $55.0 million in cash, a $25.0 million seller's note and a $30.0 million earnout of which the estimated fair value as of September 30, 2024 was $14.1 million. See Note 3 Fair Value Accounting. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recognized a loss of $23.0 million on the sale of the business which is reflected in (gain) loss on sale of businesses on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Revenues and operating profit (loss) of the steel components business were $87.8 million and $(20.9) million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, $117.6 million and $8.1 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
During the three months ended June 30, 2024, we completed the divestiture of certain assets and liabilities of a single-location asphalt and paving operation in our Construction Products segment and the sale of a non-operating facility in our Engineered Structures segment. The total consideration for these divestitures was $27.3 million. The Company recognized a net pre-tax gain of $12.5 million which is reflected in (gain) loss on sale of businesses on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
There were no divestitures completed during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Other
In June 2023, the Company settled a $15.0 million holdback obligation from the 2021 acquisition of Southwest Rock Products, LLC upon the extension of a certain mineral reserve lease. Based on final negotiations with the seller, the holdback was settled for $10.0 million and paid during the three months ended June 30, 2023. The $5.0 million difference between the settlement amount and the amount accrued at the time of acquisition was recorded as a reduction in cost of revenues in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. An entity is required to establish a fair value hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values are listed below:
Level 1 - This level is defined as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The Company's cash equivalents are instruments of the U.S. Treasury or highly-rated money market mutual funds.
Level 2 - This level is defined as observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Interest rate hedges are valued at exit prices obtained from each counterparty. See Note 7 Debt.
Level 3 - This level is defined as unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Contingent consideration relates to estimated future payments expected from businesses previously acquired or sold. We estimate the fair value of the contingent consideration using a model appropriate for the structure of the contingent consideration, which may include discounted cash flow models, Monte Carlo simulations, or option pricing models. The fair values are sensitive to changes in the forecast of the performance metrics and in other metrics such as discount rates and volatility. The fair value is reassessed quarterly based on assumptions used in our latest projections.

Revolving Credit Facility
In August 2023, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") to increase our revolving credit facility from $500.0 million to $600.0 million, extend the maturity date of our revolving credit facility from January 2, 2025 to August 23, 2028, and refinance and repay in full the remaining balance of the term loan then outstanding under our prior credit facility.
On August 15, 2024, we entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement (the "Amended Credit Agreement") to, among other things, (i) increase our revolving credit facility from $600.0 million to $700.0 million, (ii) collateralize the amended revolving credit facility with substantially all of our and our subsidiary guarantors' personal property (with certain exceptions), (iii) make the applicable margin for revolving borrowings, letters of credit and the commitment fee rate be based on our consolidated net leverage ratio (permitting up to $150.0 million of unrestricted cash to be netted from the calculation thereof), (iv) modify the margin for SOFR-based revolving borrowings and letters of credit to range from 1.25% to 2.50% per annum, (v) modify the margin for base rate revolving borrowings to range from 0.25% to 1.50%, (vi) modify the commitment fee that accrues on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility to range from 0.20% to 0.45%, and (vii) modify the maximum permitted leverage to include a net debt concept (permitting up to $150.0 million of unrestricted cash to be netted from the calculation thereof), and to provide that such ratio shall be no greater than 5.00 to 1.00 during the fourth quarter of 2024 and the next two fiscal quarters, 4.50 to 1.00 for the next following two fiscal quarters, and 4.00 to 1.00 for each fiscal quarter thereafter (however, this maximum permitted leverage ratio may be increased to 4.50 to 1.00 for up to four fiscal quarters if a material acquisition is entered into). These amendments did not become effective until the closing of the Stavola acquisition on October 1, 2024. The amended revolving credit facility's maturity date of August 23, 2028 remains unchanged.

Table of Contents
As of September 30, 2024, we had $240.0 million of outstanding loans borrowed under our revolving credit facility. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the amount of outstanding loans borrowed increased $80.0 million primarily due to $160.0 million borrowed in April 2024 to fund, in part, the acquisition of Ameron, of which $60.0 million was repaid during the three months ended June 30, 2024. Additionally, as of September 30, 2024, prior to the effectiveness of the Amended Credit Agreement, there were approximately $0.7 million of letters of credit outstanding under our revolving credit facility that will expire in 2025, which left $359.3 million available for borrowing. The majority of our letters of credit obligations support the Company's various insurance programs and generally renew by their terms each year.
The interest rate for revolving loans under the Amended Credit Agreement are variable based on the daily simple or term Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), plus 10-basis points, or an alternate base rate, in each case plus a margin for borrowing. A commitment fee accrues on the average daily unused portion of the revolving credit facility. The margin for revolving borrowings and commitment fee rate are determined based on the Company's Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio (as measured by a consolidated funded indebtedness, less the aggregate amount of unrestricted cash up to a maximum amount not to exceed $150.0 million, to consolidated EBITDA ratio). As of September 30, 2024, prior to the effectiveness of the Amended Credit Agreement, the margin for borrowing based on SOFR was set at 1.50% and the commitment fee rate was set at 0.25%.
The revolving credit facility portion of the Amended Credit Agreement requires the maintenance of certain ratios related to leverage and interest coverage. As of September 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all such financial covenants. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company. On October 1, 2024, we collateralized our obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement with substantially all of our and our subsidiary guarantors' personal property (with certain exceptions).
The carrying value of revolving borrowings under the Credit Agreement approximates fair value because the interest rate adjusts to the market interest rate (Level 3 input). See Note 3 Fair Value Accounting.
In connection with the Credit Agreement, the Company incurred debt issuance costs of approximately $0.2 million. As of September 30, 2024, total unamortized debt issuance costs related to the prior and amended revolving credit facilities were $2.2 million. These costs are included in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and are amortized into interest expense over the term of the Amended Credit Agreement.
Term Loan
The Amended Credit Agreement provides for a new secured term loan facility (the "Term Loan") in an aggregate principal amount of $700.0 million. The Term Loan was funded on October 1, 2024 with the closing of the Stavola acquisition, of which $100.0 million was used to pay down the Company's revolving credit facility. The Term Loan requires, among other things, (i) mandatory prepayments from excess cash flow on an annual basis, commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, (ii) mandatory prepayments with proceeds of certain asset sales and debt issuances, and (iii) quarterly principal amortization payments in an amount equal to 0.25% of the initial Term Loan. The Term Loan has a maturity date of October 1, 2031. The interest rate for the Term Loan is based on SOFR plus 2.25% per year. The Term Loan is prepayable at any time without penalty, except, in the event of a voluntary repricing in the first six months after closing, in which case a premium in the amount of 1.0% of the initial Term Loan is payable. The Term Loan is guaranteed by the same subsidiaries of the Company, that guarantee our revolving credit facility, and the Term Loan is secured on a pari passu basis with our revolving credit facility.
Senior Notes
On August 26, 2024, the Company issued $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.875% senior unsecured notes (the "2024 Notes") that mature in August 2032. Interest on the 2024 Notes is payable semiannually in February and August. In April 2021, the Company issued $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.375% senior unsecured notes (the "2021 Notes", and together with the 2024 Notes, the "Senior Notes") that mature in April 2029. Interest on the 2021 Notes is payable semiannually in April and October. The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of the Company's domestic subsidiaries that is a guarantor under our Amended Credit Agreement. The terms of each indenture governing the Senior Notes, among other things, limit the ability of the Company and each of its subsidiaries to create liens on assets, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, and consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of its assets and the assets of its subsidiaries. The terms of each indenture also limit the ability of the Company's non-guarantor subsidiaries to incur certain types of debt.
17
Table of Contents
The Company has the option to redeem all or a portion of the Senior Notes at redemption prices set forth in the applicable indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. If a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined in each applicable indenture) occurs, the Company must offer to repurchase the Senior Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase.
The estimated fair values of the 2024 Notes and 2021 Notes as of September 30, 2024 were $628.6 million and $383.9 million, respectively, based on quoted market prices in a market with little activity (Level 2 input).
In connection with the issuance of the 2024 Notes and the 2021 Notes, the Company incurred $8.1 million and $6.6 million, respectively, of debt issuance costs.
The remaining principal payments under existing debt agreements as of September 30, 2024 are as follows(1):

(1) The $700 million Term Loan was funded on October 1, 2024 concurrent with the closing of Stavola, of which $100 million was used to pay down the revolving credit facility. See Note 2 Acquisitions and Divestitures.
In connection with the agreement to acquire Stavola, on August 1, 2024 the Company entered into a commitment letter with certain lenders to provide a senior secured 364-day bridge loan facility of up to $1.2 billion for the purpose of providing the financing necessary to fund the acquisition. No funds were drawn upon the bridge loan facility, which terminated upon the closing of the Stavola acquisition. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company incurred $1.5 million of debt issuance costs related to the bridge loan facility, all of which is reflected in interest expense on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Interest rate hedges
In December 2018, the Company entered into a $100.0 million interest rate swap instrument, effective as of January 2, 2019, to reduce the effect of changes in the variable interest rates associated with the first $100.0 million of borrowings under the Company's committed credit facility. In conjunction with the replacement of LIBOR with SOFR as a benchmark for borrowings under our credit facility, on July 1, 2023 the swap instrument transitioned from LIBOR to SOFR. The instrument effectively fixed the SOFR component of borrowings under our credit facility at a monthly rate of 2.71% until such instrument's termination. The interest rate swap instrument expired in October 2023 and no new interest rate swap instrument has been entered into in connection with the Term Loan.
Note 8. Leases
We have various leases primarily for office space and certain equipment. At inception, we determine if an arrangement contains a lease and whether that lease meets the classification criteria of a finance or operating lease. For leases that contain options to purchase, terminate, or extend, such options are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. Some of our lease arrangements contain lease components and non-lease components which are accounted for as a single lease component as we have elected the practical expedient to group lease and non-lease components for all leases.
As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.

Note 10. Income Taxes
For interim income tax reporting, we estimate our annual effective tax rate and apply it to our year-to-date ordinary income (loss). Tax jurisdictions with a projected or year to date loss for which a tax benefit cannot be realized are excluded. The tax effects of unusual or infrequently occurring items, including changes in judgment about valuation allowances and effects of changes in tax laws or rates, are reported in the interim period in which they occur. We have open tax years from 2014 to 2023 with various significant tax jurisdictions.
Our effective tax rates of 13.1% and 15.2% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% due to Advanced Manufacturing Production ("AMP") tax credits, compensation-related items, state income taxes, statutory depletion deductions, and tax effects of foreign currency translations. Our effective tax rates of 17.4% and 17.1% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% due to AMP tax credits, tax effects of foreign currency translations, compensation-related items, state income taxes, and statutory depletion deductions.

Note 14. Earnings Per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income remaining after allocation to participating unvested restricted shares by the weighted average number of basic common shares outstanding for the period. Except when the effect would be antidilutive, the calculation of diluted earnings per common share includes the weighted average net impact of nonparticipating unvested restricted shares. Total weighted average restricted shares were 1.1 million and 1.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. Total weighted average restricted shares were 1.1 million and 1.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.

Note 15. Contingencies
The Company is involved in claims and lawsuits incidental to our business arising from various matters including commercial disputes, alleged product defect and/or warranty claims, intellectual property matters, personal injury claims, environmental issues, employment and/or workplace-related matters, and various governmental and environmental regulations. The Company evaluates its exposure to such claims and suits periodically and establishes accruals for these contingencies when probable losses can be reasonably estimated. At September 30, 2024, the reasonably possible losses and any related accruals for such matters were not significant.
Estimates of liability arising from future proceedings, assessments, or remediation are inherently imprecise. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we will not become involved in future litigation or other proceedings, including those related to the environment or, if we are found to be responsible or liable in any such litigation or proceeding, that such costs would not be material to the Company.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") is intended to provide a reader of our financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of our management on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and certain other factors that may affect our future results. Our MD&A is presented in the following sections:
•Company Overview
•Market Outlook
•Executive Overview
•Results of Operations
•Liquidity and Capital Resources
•Recent Accounting Pronouncements
•Forward-Looking Statements
Our MD&A should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of Arcosa, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries ("Arcosa," "Company," "we," or "our") and related Notes in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes in Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data", of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 ("2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K").
Company Overview
Arcosa, headquartered in Dallas, Texas, is a provider of infrastructure-related products and solutions with leading positions in construction, engineered structures, and transportation markets in North America. Arcosa is a Delaware corporation and was incorporated in 2018 as an independent, publicly-traded company, listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
Market Outlook
•Within our Construction Products segment, market demand remains healthy overall when seasonal weather conditions have been normal, supported by increased infrastructure spending and private non-residential activity. The outlook for single-family residential housing continues to be impacted by higher interest rates and home affordability, which has negatively impacted volumes. We have been successful in managing inflationary cost pressures through proactive price increases.
•Within our Engineered Structures segment, our backlog as of September 30, 2024 provides good production visibility for the remainder of 2024 and into 2025. Our customers remain committed to taking delivery of these orders. In utility structures, order and inquiry activity continues to be healthy, as customers remain focused on grid hardening and reliability initiatives. The passage of the Inflation Reduction Act ("IRA") on August 16, 2022, which included a long-term extension of the Production Tax Credit for new wind farm projects and introduced new Advanced Manufacturing Production ("AMP") tax credits for companies that domestically manufacture and sell clean energy equipment in the U.S., is a significant catalyst for our wind towers business. As demonstrated by more than $1.1 billion of new orders for delivery through 2028, which we have received since the passage of the IRA, our wind towers business is at the beginning stages of a market recovery. A large portion of these orders will support wind energy expansion projects in the Southwest. As a result, we have opened a new plant in New Mexico and started delivering towers from this facility late in the second quarter of 2024.
•Within our Transportation Products segment, our backlog for inland barges as of September 30, 2024 was $244.7 million and extends into 2025. Our customers remain committed to taking delivery of these orders. Our barge business is recovering from cyclical lows resulting from the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic when order levels fell sharply due to high steel prices throughout 2022 and 2023. Over this time, customer inquiries have remained healthy, initially for dry barges and more recently for tank barges. The fleet continues to age as new builds have not kept pace with scrapping, and utilization rates are high. We have been successful in filling orders when we can strategically source steel. During the third quarter, we received orders of $75 million for tank and hopper barges.

Executive Overview
Recent Developments
In October 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of the construction materials business of Stavola Holding Corporation and its affiliated entities ("Stavola") for $1.2 billion in cash. Stavola, which will be reported within the Construction Products segment, serves the New York-New Jersey MSA through its network of five hard rock natural aggregates quarries, twelve asphalt plants, and three recycled aggregates sites. The purchase price was funded with a $700.0 million secured term loan facility (the "Term Loan") that matures in October 2031 and $600.0 million of 6.875% senior notes (the "2024 Notes") that matures in August 2032.
In August 2024, the Company completed the sale of its steel components business. Previously reported in the Transportation Products segment, the steel components business is a leading supplier of railcar coupling devices, railcar axles, and circular forgings. The total consideration for the divestiture was $110.0 million consisting of $55.0 million in cash, a $25.0 million seller's note and a $30.0 million earnout of which the estimated fair value as of September 30, 2024 was $14.1 million. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recognized a loss of $23.0 million on the sale of the business which is reflected in (gain) loss on sale of businesses on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
In April 2024, we completed the acquisition of Ameron Pole Products, LLC ("Ameron"), a leading manufacturer of highly engineered, premium concrete and steel poles for a broad range of infrastructure applications, including lighting, traffic, electric distribution, and small-cell telecom, for a total purchase price of $180.0 million. With operations in Alabama, California, and Oklahoma, Ameron is included in our Engineered Structures segment. The acquisition was funded with $160.0 million of borrowings under our revolving credit facility and cash on hand.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2024 versus Three Months Ended September 30, 2023
•Revenues increased 1.4% primarily due to recent acquisitions. Organic revenues in our aggregates and specialty materials businesses were down slightly as lower volumes, a decrease in freight revenue, and a reduction in revenue from recently divested operations was partially offset by higher pricing. Revenues in our trench shoring business decreased 5.8% primarily due to reduced steel prices and lower volumes.

Table of Contents
•Cost of revenues decreased 4.4% primarily due to lower organic volumes in our aggregates and specialty materials businesses and operating improvements in our specialty materials and trench shoring businesses. The decrease was partially offset by increased costs from recently acquired businesses, including higher depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense. As a percentage of revenues, cost of revenues decreased to 75.2% in the current period, compared to 79.8% in the prior period.
•Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased 11.1% due to additional costs from recently acquired businesses and higher compensation-related costs. Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues was 10.5% in the current period, compared to 9.6% in the prior period.
•Operating profit increased 33.3% due to the accretive impact of recent acquisitions, recent divestiture of underperforming operations, increased unit profitability in our aggregates business, and operating improvements in our specialty materials business and trench shoring businesses.
•Depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense increased 6.3% primarily due to the fair market value write-up of long-lived assets from recent acquisitions and organic growth investments.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 versus Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023
•Revenues increased 4.0% primarily due to recent acquisitions. Organic revenues in our aggregates and specialty materials businesses were down slightly as lower volumes, a decrease in freight revenue, and a reduction in revenue from recently divested operations was partially offset by higher pricing. Revenues from our trench shoring business increased 5.5% driven by revenues from higher organic volumes and the acquisition completed in the first quarter of 2023.
•Cost of revenues increased 2.2% primarily due to increased costs from the recently acquired businesses, including higher depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense and $1.7 million for the cost impact of the fair market value write-up of acquired inventory and a $5.0 million benefit recognized in the prior period related to the reduction in a holdback obligation owed on a previous acquisition. These costs were partially offset by lower organic volumes in our aggregates and specialty materials businesses and operating improvements in our specialty materials business. As a percentage of revenues, cost of revenues was 76.5% in the current period, compared to 77.8% in the prior period.
•Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased 5.1% due to additional costs from recently acquired businesses and higher compensation-related costs. Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues was 10.7% in the current period, compared to 10.6% in the prior period.
•During the period, the Construction Products segment recognized a $5.0 million gain on the sale of an under-performing single-location asphalt and paving operation and an impairment charge of $5.8 million related to the closure of its aggregates operations in west Texas, for a net reduction in operating profit of $0.8 million.
•Operating profit decreased 4.9% primarily due to a $21.8 million gain on the sale of depleted land in the prior period. Excluding the gain, operating profit increased 17.5% driven by the accretive impact of recent acquisitions, recent divestiture of underperforming operations, increased unit profitability in our aggregates business, and operating improvements in our specialty materials business and trench shoring businesses.
•Depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense increased primarily due to recent acquisitions and organic growth investments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Arcosa's primary liquidity requirement consists of funding our business operations, including capital expenditures, working capital investment, and disciplined acquisitions. Our primary sources of liquidity include cash flow from operations, our existing cash balance, availability under the revolving credit facility, and, as necessary, the issuance of additional long-term debt or equity. To the extent we have available liquidity, we may also consider undertaking new capital investment projects, executing additional strategic acquisitions, returning capital to stockholders, or funding other general corporate purposes.
Cash Flows
The following table summarizes our cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:

Other Investing and Financing Activities
Revolving Credit Facility, Term Loan, and Senior Notes
In August 2023, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement ("the Credit Agreement") to increase our revolving credit facility from $500.0 million to $600.0 million, extend the maturity date of our revolving credit facility from January 2, 2025 to August 23, 2028, and refinance and repay in full the remaining balance of the term loan then outstanding under our prior credit facility. On August 15, 2024, we entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement (the "Amended Credit Agreement") to, among other things, (i) increase our revolving credit facility from $600.0 million to $700.0 million, (ii) collateralize the amended revolving credit facility with substantially all of our and our subsidiary guarantors' personal property (with certain exceptions), (iii) make the applicable margin for revolving borrowings, letters of credit and the commitment fee rate be based on our consolidated net leverage ratio (permitting up to $150.0 million of unrestricted cash to be netted from the calculation thereof), (iv) modify the margin for SOFR-based revolving borrowings and letters of credit to range from 1.25% to 2.50% per annum, (v) modify the margin for base rate revolving borrowings to range from 0.25% to 1.50%, (vi) modify the commitment fee that accrues on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility to range from 0.20% to 0.45%, and (vii) modify the maximum permitted leverage to include a net debt concept (permitting up to $150.0 million of unrestricted cash to be netted from the calculation thereof), and to provide that such ratio shall be no greater than 5.00 to 1.00 during the fourth quarter of 2024 and the next two fiscal quarters, 4.50 to 1.00 for the next following two fiscal quarters, and 4.00 to 1.00 for each fiscal quarter thereafter (however, this maximum permitted leverage ratio may be increased to 4.50 to 1.00 for up to four fiscal quarters if a material acquisition is entered into). These amendments did not become effective until the closing of the Stavola acquisition on October 1, 2024. The amended revolving credit facility's maturity date of August 23, 2028 remains unchanged.
As of September 30, 2024, we had $240.0 million of outstanding loans borrowed under our revolving credit facility. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the amount of outstanding loans borrowed increased $80.0 million primarily due to $160.0 million borrowed in April 2024 to fund, in part, the acquisition of Ameron, of which $60.0 million was repaid during the three months ended June 30, 2024. Additionally, as of September 30, 2024, prior to the effectiveness of the Amended Credit Agreement, there were approximately $0.7 million of letters of credit outstanding under our revolving credit facility that will expire in 2025, which left $359.3 million available for borrowing. The majority of our letters of credit obligations support the Company's various insurance programs and generally renew by their terms each year.
The interest rate for revolving loans under the Amended Credit Agreement are variable based on the daily simple or term Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), plus 10-basis points, or an alternate base rate, in each case plus a margin for borrowing. A commitment fee accrues on the average daily unused portion of the revolving credit facility. The margin for revolving borrowings and commitment fee rate are determined based on the Company's Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio (as measured by a consolidated funded indebtedness, less the aggregate amount of unrestricted cash up to a maximum amount not to exceed $150.0 million, to consolidated EBITDA ratio). As of September 30, 2024, prior to the effectiveness of the Amended Credit Agreement, the margin for borrowing based on SOFR was set at 1.50% and the commitment fee rate was set at 0.25%.
The revolving credit facility portion of the Amended Credit Agreement requires the maintenance of certain ratios related to leverage and interest coverage. As of September 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all such financial covenants. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company. On October 1, 2024, we collateralized our obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement with substantially all of our and our subsidiary guarantors' personal property (with certain exceptions).

Table of Contents
The Amended Credit Agreement provides for a new secured term loan facility (the "Term Loan") in an aggregate principal amount of $700.0 million. The Term Loan was funded on October 1, 2024 with the closing of the Stavola acquisition. The Term Loan requires, among other things (i) mandatory prepayments from excess cash flow on an annual basis, commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, (ii) mandatory prepayments with proceeds of certain asset sales and debt issuances, and (iii) quarterly principal amortization payments in an amount equal to 0.25% of the initial Term Loan. The Term Loan has a maturity date of October 1, 2031. The interest rate for the Term Loan is based on SOFR plus 2.25% per year. The Term Loan is prepayable at any time without penalty, except in the event of a voluntary repricing in the first six months after closing, in which case a premium in the amount of 1.0% of the initial Term Loan is payable. The Term Loan is guaranteed by the same subsidiaries of the Company that guarantee our revolving credit facility, and the Term Loan is secured on a pari passu basis with our revolving credit facility.
On August 26, 2024, the Company issued $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.875% senior notes (the "2024 Notes") that mature in August 2032. Interest on the 2024 Notes is payable semiannually in February and August. In April 2021, the Company issued $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.375% senior unsecured notes (the "2021 Notes", and together with the 2024 Notes, the "Senior Notes") that mature in April 2029. Interest on the 2021 Notes is payable semiannually in April and October. The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of the Company's domestic subsidiaries that is a guarantor under our Amended Revolving Credit Facility. The terms of each indenture governing the Senior Notes, among other things, limit the ability of the Company and each of its subsidiaries to create liens on assets, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, and consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of its assets and the assets of its subsidiaries. The terms of each indenture also limit the ability of the Company's non-guarantor subsidiaries to incur certain types of debt.
We believe, based on our current business plans, that our existing cash, available liquidity, and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to fund necessary capital expenditures and operating cash requirements for the foreseeable future.
Dividends and Repurchase Program
In September 2024, the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per share that is scheduled to be paid on October 31, 2024.
In December 2022, the Board authorized a new $50.0 million share repurchase program effective January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2024 to replace a program of the same amount that expired on December 31, 2022. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company did not repurchase any shares. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had a remaining authorization of $36.2 million under the program.

The Company's Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officers are responsible for establishing and maintaining these disclosure controls and procedures and evaluating their effectiveness (as defined in Rule 13(a)-15l under the Exchange Act). Based on their evaluation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures that took place as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officers believe that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the period covered by this report, there have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
As permitted by the SEC Staff interpretive guidance for recently acquired businesses, management's assessment and conclusion on the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2024 excludes an assessment of the internal control over financial reporting of the Ameron business acquired in April 2024.
