- Tutor Perini delivered a record 2025 with $5.5 billion of revenue, a record $748 million of operating cash flow and $4.29 of adjusted EPS, and management is guiding to double‑digit revenue growth and adjusted EPS of $4.90–$5.30 in 2026.
- Backlog provides multi‑year visibility — year‑end backlog was $20.6 billion (up 10%) driven by $7.4 billion of 2025 awards including several mega projects, and management says nine mega projects (~$16 billion) have healthy margins and favorable contract terms.
- Balance sheet and capital return progress: total debt down 24%, ended 2025 with a net cash position of $327 million, the board authorized a first quarterly dividend (six cents) and a $200 million buyback program, and management expects refinancing to cut interest costs.
- Near‑term risks include some backlog “lumpiness” (management expects modest near‑term backlog reduction before resumed growth) and about a dozen remaining legacy dispute matters that could still affect results despite recent settlements and a near‑term ~$40 million recovery.
