On August 12, 2026, Granite Construction Incorporated (the “Company”) issued 662,383 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, to settle conversions of $273.7 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s outstanding 3.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2028 (the “2028 Notes”). The shares were issued in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933 as the transactions involved the exchange of securities of the same issuer with existing security holders.


Item 8.01			Other Events.

As previously disclosed, on May 19, 2026, the Company called the outstanding $273.7 million aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Notes for redemption on August 10, 2026. In connection therewith, on August 4, 2026, the Company entered into unwind agreements (the “Unwind Agreements”) with certain financial institutions (the “Capped Call Counterparties”) to unwind and terminate in full the capped call transactions that were entered into in connection with the offering of the 2028 Notes (the “2028 Notes Capped Call Transactions”). Pursuant to the Unwind Agreements, on August 11, 2026, the Capped Call Counterparties paid the Company approximately $148 million in the aggregate to unwind and terminate the 2028 Notes Capped Call Transactions.

On August 12, 2026, the Company paid approximately $715 million in cash (including cash paid in lieu of fractional shares), which was funded in part by cash proceeds received by the Company pursuant to the settlement of the Unwind Agreements, and issued 662,383 shares of common stock, each as further described above, to settle its obligations with respect to the 2028 Notes that were submitted for conversion in connection with the redemption of the 2028 Notes.
