GRANITE CONSTRUCTION INCORPORATED
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

|
Basis of Presentation
|
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Granite Construction Incorporated (“we,” “us,” “our,” “the Company” or “Granite”) and are unaudited, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2015
. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. Further, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary to state fairly our financial position at
June 30, 2016
and
2015
and the results of our operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The
December 31, 2015
condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP.
Our operations are typically affected more by weather conditions during the first and fourth quarters of our fiscal year which may alter our construction schedules and can create variability in our revenues and profitability. Therefore, the results of operations for the
three
and six months ended
June 30, 2016
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
We prepared the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements on the same basis as our annual consolidated financial statements, except for the addition of the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. In addition, during the six months ended
June 30, 2016
, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-02,
Consolidation (Topic 810)
,
ASU
No. 2015-03,
Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs
, ASU No. 2015-05,
Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software
(Subtopic 350-40)
and
ASU No. 2015-15
, Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements,
none of which had a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Reclassifications:
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods to conform to current year presentation.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
|
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2014-09,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
, which provides guidance for revenue recognition and allows for both retrospective and prospective methods of adoption. This ASU’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers,
which
deferred the effective date by one year to December 15, 2017 for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after that date. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606):
Principal versus Agent Considerations
(Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net),
which requires an entity to determine whether the nature of its promise is to provide a good or service to the customer (i.e., the entity is a principal) or to arrange for the good or service to be provided to the customer by the other party (i.e., the entity is an agent). In April, 2016 the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing,
which clarifies the following two aspects of Topic 606: (a) identifying performance obligations, and (b) the licensing implementation guidance. In May, 2016 the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12
Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients,
which clarifies guidance in certain narrow areas and adds a practical expedient for certain aspects of the guidance. The amendments do not change the core principle of the guidance in ASU 2014-09. These ASUs will be effective commencing with our quarter ending March 31, 2018. We are currently assessing the potential impact of these ASUs on our consolidated financial statements.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01,
Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,
which, among other things, eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet. This ASU will be effective commencing with our quarter ending March 31, 2017. We do not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

GRANITE CONSTRUCTION INCORPORATED
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED
(Unaudited)
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02,
Leases
(Topic 842),
which requires lessees to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date: (a) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (b) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. The ASU will be effective commencing with our quarter ending March 31, 2019. We are currently assessing the potential impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-05,
Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Effect of Derivative Contract Novations on Existing Hedge Accounting Relationships,
which
clarifies that a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designated as a hedging instrument does not, in and of itself, require de-designation of that hedging relationship provided that all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met. This ASU will be effective commencing with our quarter ending March 31, 2017. We do not expect any changes in the counterparty to our cash flow hedge and therefore do not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09,
Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employe
e
Share-Based Payment Accounting
. This ASU identifies areas for simplification involving several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, an option to recognize gross stock compensation expense with actual forfeitures recognized as they occur, as well as certain classifications on the statement of cash flows. This ASU will be effective commencing with our quarter ending March 31, 2017. We are currently assessing the potential impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13,
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.
The ASU requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This ASU will be effective commencing with our quarter ending March 31, 2020. We do not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Revisions in Estimates
|
Our profit recognition related to construction contracts is based on estimates of costs to complete each project. These estimates can vary significantly in the normal course of business as projects progress, circumstances develop and evolve, and uncertainties are resolved. When we experience significant changes in our estimates of costs to complete, we undergo a process that includes reviewing the nature of the changes to ensure that there are no material amounts that should have been recorded in a prior period rather than as revisions in estimates for the current period. In our review of these changes for the
three
and six months ended
June 30, 2016
and
2015
, we did not identify any material amounts that should have been recorded in a prior period. We use the cumulative catch-up method applicable to construction contract accounting to account for revisions in estimates. Under this method, revisions in estimates are accounted for in their entirety in the period of change. There can be no assurance that we will not experience further changes in circumstances or otherwise be required to further revise our cost estimates.
Revenue in an amount equal to cost incurred is recognized if there is not sufficient information to determine the estimated profit on the project with a reasonable level of certainty.
Revisions in estimates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 included an increase in revenue and gross profit of
$17.4 million
and
$20.2 million
, respectively, related to the estimated recovery of customer affirmative claims. Revenue and gross profit was also affected by an increase in estimated contract costs that were in excess of the estimated recovery for
$15.3 million
of the total during both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016. There were no material changes to estimated contract costs on the remaining
$2.1 million
and
$4.9 million
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively.
Revisions in estimates during the six months ended
June 30, 2015
included an increase in revenue and gross profit of
$9.7 million
related to the estimated recovery of customer affirmative claims for which there was no material associated cost during the respective periods. There was
no
revenue or gross profit associated with customer affirmative claims during the three months ended
June 30, 2015
.
Revisions in estimates for both the
three
and six months ended
June 30, 2016
included an increase in gross profit of
$7.6 million
related to the estimated recovery of back charge claims. There was
no
estimated recovery of back charge claims during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015.

Fair Value Measurement
|
We measure our cash equivalents and interest rate and commodity swap derivative contracts at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets on a recurring basis. The carrying values of receivables, other current assets, and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. During the three and six months ended
June 30, 2016
and
2015
, we did not record any fair value adjustments related to nonfinancial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

Derivatives
We recognize derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value using Level 2 inputs.
Interest Rate Swaps
As of
June 30, 2016
, the fair value of the cash flow hedge that we entered into in January 2016 was
$2.1 million
and was included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the three and six months ended
June 30, 2016
, the losses, net of taxes, on the effective portion were
$0.4 million
and
$1.3 million
, respectively, and were reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. During the three and six months ended
June 30, 2016
there was no ineffective portion and the interest expense reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income was
$0.1 million
for both periods. We estimate
$0.8 million
to be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into pre-tax earnings within the next twelve months.
As of

Receivables include amounts billed and billable to clients for services provided as of the end of the applicable period and, except for escrow receivables, do not bear interest. Included in Other receivables at
June 30, 2016
,
December 31, 2015
and
June 30, 2015
were items such as estimated recovery from back charge claims, notes receivable, fuel tax refunds, receivables from vendors and income tax refunds. As of
June 30, 2016
and
December 31, 2015
, the estimated recovery from back charge claims included in Other receivables was
$10.5 million
,
$6.5 million
, and there were
no
receivables related back charges as of
June 30, 2015
. No such receivables individually exceeded 10% of total net receivables at any of these dates.
To the extent costs are not contractually billable or have not been earned, such as claim recovery estimates, the associated revenue is included in costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings or billings
i
n excess of costs and estimated earnings, respectively, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of
June 30, 2016
,
December 31, 2015
and
June 30, 2015
, the aggregate claim recovery estimates, included in these balances, were approximately
$8.1 million
,
$8.8 million
and
$7.9 million
, respectively. Ultimate settlement with the customer is dependent on the claims resolution process and could extend beyond one year or the project operating cycle.

Certain construction contracts include retainage provisions and the associated retention receivables are considered financing receivables. The balances billed but not paid by customers pursuant to these provisions generally become due upon completion and acceptance of the project work or products by the owners. No retention receivable individually exceeded 10% of total net receivables at any of the presented dates. As of
June 30, 2016
, the majority of the retentions receivable are expected to be collected within one year.
We segregate our retention receivables into two categories: escrow and non-escrow. The balances in each category were as follows:

The escrow receivables include amounts due to Granite that have been deposited into an escrow account and bear interest. Typically, escrow retention receivables are held until work on a project is complete and has been accepted by the owner who then releases those funds, along with accrued interest, to us. There is minimal risk of not collecting on these amounts.
As of all periods presented, there were no significant collectability issues related to non-escrow retention receivables.

Construction Joint Ventures
|
We participate in various construction joint ventures, partnerships and a limited liability company of which we are a limited member (“joint ventures”).
Due to the joint and several nature of the performance obligations under the related owner contracts, if any of the members fail to perform, we and the other members would be responsible for performance of the outstanding work. Generally, each construction joint venture is formed to complete a specific contract and is jointly controlled by the venture members. The associated agreements typically provide that our interests in any profits and assets, and our respective share in any losses and liabilities resulting from the performance of the contracts, are limited to our stated percentage interest in the venture. Under our contractual arrangements, we provide capital to these joint ventures in return for an ownership interest. In addition, members dedicate resources to the ventures necessary to complete the contracts and are reimbursed for their cost. The operational risks of each construction joint venture are passed along to the joint venture members. As we absorb our share of these risks, our investment in each venture is exposed to potential gains and losses.
At
June 30, 2016
, there was approximately
$5.1 billion
of construction revenue to be recognized on unconsolidated and line item construction joint venture contracts of which
$1.6 billion
represented our share and the remaining
$3.5 billion
represented the other members’ share. We are not able to estimate amounts that may be required beyond the remaining cost of the work to be performed. These costs could be offset by billings to the customer or by proceeds from other members and/or other guarantors.
We have determined that certain of these joint ventures are consolidated because they are variable interest entities (“VIEs”), and we are the primary beneficiary. We continually evaluate whether there are changes in the status of the VIEs or changes to the primary beneficiary designation of the VIE. Based on our assessments during the three months ended
June 30, 2016
, we determined no change was required for existing construction joint ventures.
The volume and stage of completion of contracts from our consolidated and unconsolidated construction joint ventures may cause fluctuations in cash and cash equivalents and, for consolidated construction joint ventures, billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings and costs in excess of billings and estimated earnings between periods.
The assets and liabilities of each consolidated and unconsolidated construction joint venture relate solely to that joint venture. The decision to distribute joint venture assets must generally be made jointly by a majority of the members and, accordingly, these assets, including those associated with customer affirmative claims and back charge claims, are generally not available for the working capital needs of Granite until distributed.

, respectively. These joint venture net income amounts exclude our corporate overhead required to manage the joint ventures and include taxes only to the extent the applicable states have joint venture level taxes.
Line Item Joint Ventures
We participate in various “line item” joint venture agreements under which each member is responsible for performing certain discrete items of the total scope of contracted work. The revenue for each line item joint venture member’s discrete items of work is defined in the contract with the project owner and each venture member bears the profitability risk associated with its own work. There is not a single set of books and records for a line item joint venture. Each member accounts for its items of work individually as it would for any self-performed contract. We include only our portion of these contracts in our condensed consolidated financial statements. As of
June 30, 2016
, we had
six
active line item joint venture construction projects with total contract values ranging from
$42.2 million
to
$87.8 million
of which our portion ranged from
$24.8 million
to
$64.9 million
. As of
June 30, 2016
, our share of revenue remaining to be recognized on these line item joint ventures ranged from
$0.1 million

Debt Covenants and Events of Default
|
Our debt and credit agreements require us to comply with various affirmative, restrictive and financial covenants. Our failure to comply with any of these covenants, or to pay principal, interest or other amounts when due thereunder, would constitute an event of default under the applicable agreements. Under certain circumstances, the occurrence of an event of default under one of our debt or credit agreements (or the acceleration of the maturity of the indebtedness under one of our agreements) may constitute an event of default under one or more of our other debt or credit agreements. Default under our debt and credit agreements could result in (i) us no longer being entitled to borrow under the agreements; (ii) termination of the agreements; (iii) the requirement that any letters of credit under the agreements be cash collateralized; (iv) acceleration of the maturity of outstanding indebtedness under the agreements; and/or (v) foreclosure on any collateral securing the obligations under the agreements.
As of
June 30, 2016
, we had a
$297.5 million
credit facility, of which
$200.0 million
was a revolving credit facility and
$97.5 million
was a term loan that matures on October 28, 2020 (the “Maturity Date”) and has a sublimit for letters of credit of
$100.0 million
(the “Credit Agreement”). As of
June 30, 2016
, senior notes payable in the amount of
$160.0 million
were due to a group of institutional holders in four remaining equal annual installments from 2016 through 2019 and bear interest at
6.11%
per annum (“2019 Notes”). Of the
$40.0 million
due for the 2016 installment of the 2019 Notes,
$30.0 million

Legal Proceedings
|
In the ordinary course of business, we or our joint ventures and affiliates are involved in various legal proceedings alleging, among other things, public liability issues or breach of contract or tortious conduct in connection with the performance of services and/or materials provided, the outcomes of which cannot be predicted with certainty. We are also subject to government inquiries and reporting requirements seeking information concerning our compliance with government construction contracting requirements and various laws and regulations, the outcomes of which cannot be predicted with certainty.
Some of the matters in which we or our joint ventures and affiliates are involved may involve compensatory, punitive, or other claims or sanctions that, if granted, could require us to pay damages or make other expenditures in amounts that are not probable to be incurred or cannot currently be reasonably estimated. In addition, in some circumstances our government contracts could be terminated, we could be suspended, debarred or incur other administrative penalties or sanctions, or payment of our costs could be disallowed. While any of our pending legal proceedings may be subject to early resolution as a result of our ongoing efforts to settle, whether or when any legal proceeding will be resolved through settlement is neither predictable nor guaranteed.
Accordingly, it is possible that future developments in such proceedings and inquiries could require us to (i) adjust existing accruals, or (ii) record new accruals that we did not originally believe to be probable or that could not be reasonably estimated. Such changes could be material to our financial condition, results of operations and/or cash flows in any particular reporting period. In addition to matters that are considered probable for which the loss can be reasonably estimated, we also disclose certain matters where the loss is considered reasonably possible and is reasonably estimable.
Liabilities relating to legal proceedings and government inquiries, to the extent that we have concluded such liabilities are probable and the amounts of such liabilities are reasonably estimable, are recorded in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The aggregate liabilities recorded as of
June 30, 2016
,
December 31, 2015
and
June 30, 2015
related to these matters were approximately
$0.7 million
,
$5.2 million
and
$9.5 million
, respectively, and were primarily included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities. The aggregate range of possible loss related to (i) matters considered reasonably possible, and (ii) reasonably possible amounts in excess of accrued losses recorded for probable loss contingencies, was immaterial as of
June 30, 2016
.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward-Looking Disclosure
From time to time, Granite makes certain comments and disclosures in reports and statements, including in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or statements made by its officers or directors, that are not based on historical facts, including statements regarding future events, occurrences, circumstances, activities, performance, outcomes and results, that may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are identified by words such as “future,” “outlook,” “assumes,” “believes,” “expects,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “appears,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “continue,” and the negatives thereof or other comparable terminology or by the context in which they are made. In addition, other written or oral statements that constitute forward-looking statements have been made and may in the future be made by or on behalf of Granite. These forward-looking statements are estimates reflecting the best judgment of senior management and reflect our current expectations regarding future events, occurrences, circumstances, activities, performance, outcomes and results. These expectations may or may not be realized. Some of these expectations may be based on beliefs, assumptions or estimates that may prove to be incorrect. In addition, our business and operations involve numerous risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, which could result in our expectations not being realized or otherwise materially affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and liquidity. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those more specifically described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K under “Item 1A. Risk Factors.”
Due to the inherent risks and uncertainties associated with our forward-looking statements, the reader is cautioned not to place undue reliance on them. The reader is also cautioned that the forward-looking statements contained herein speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements for any reason
.
Overview
We are one of the largest diversified heavy civil contractors and construction materials producers in the United States, engaged in the construction and improvement of streets, roads, highways, mass transit facilities, airport infrastructure, bridges, trenchless and underground utilities, power-related facilities, water-related facilities, utilities, tunnels, dams and other infrastructure-related projects. We have three reportable business segments: Construction, Large Project Construction and Construction Materials (see Note 14 of “Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements”).
In addition to business segments, we review our business by operating groups and by public and private market sectors. Our operating groups are defined as follows: (i) California; (ii) Northwest, which primarily includes offices in Alaska, Arizona, Nevada, Utah and Washington; (iii) Heavy Civil, which primarily includes offices in California, Florida, New York and Texas; and (iv) Kenny, which primarily includes an office in Illinois.
With the exception of contract change orders and affirmative claims, which are typically sole-source, our construction contracts are primarily obtained through competitive bidding in response to solicitations by both public agencies and private parties and on a negotiated basis as a result of solicitations from private parties. Our bidding activity is affected by such factors as the nature and volume of advertising and other solicitations, contract backlog, available personnel, current utilization of equipment and other resources, our ability to obtain necessary surety bonds and competitive considerations. Bidding activity, contract backlog and revenue resulting from the award of new contracts may vary significantly from period to period.
The four primary economic drivers of our business are (i) the overall health of the economy; (ii) federal, state and local public funding levels; (iii) population growth resulting in public and private development; and (iv) the need to replace or repair aging infrastructure. Changes in these drivers can either reduce our revenues and/or gross profit margins or provide opportunities for revenue growth and gross margin improvement.
21
Current Economic Environment and Outlook
Market conditions remain stable but highly competitive across geographies and end markets. Current record backlog of
$3.8 billion
reflects positive steady trends, against a backdrop of modest economic growth. Private market activity continues to provide growth opportunities across geographies and end markets, while public spending trends remain tepid, in line with recent years.
The December 2015 passage of the five-year Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (“FAST”) Act provides an important basis of growth for our industry. State departments of transportation are expected to act on the FAST Act, and we expect a positive impact in our business to begin late in 2016 and to accelerate in 2017. We expect to see most new activity in our Construction and Construction Materials segments.
We continue to pursue numerous bidding opportunities, with Granite as a sole contractor or as a partner. As we prioritize the tens of billions of dollars’ worth of future North American projects, we expect to build and maintain a broad roster from $10 billion to $20 billion of bidding opportunities over a rolling, two-year period for the foreseeable future. Our proportionate share of awards should remain consistent with recent history. We are focused on responsibly addressing risk in all of our projects, allowing us to focus on projects with appropriate returns relative to risks.
Results of Operations
Our operations are typically affected more by weather conditions during the first and fourth quarters of our fiscal year which may alter our construction schedules and can create variability in our revenues and profitability. Therefore, the results of operations of a given quarter are not indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

$25.7 million
, or
8.4%
, and
$46.7 million
, or
9.5%
, respectively, compared to the same periods in

decreased by
$4.8 million
, or
6.0%
, and

Contract Backlog
Our contract backlog consists of the unearned revenue on awarded contracts, including 100% of our consolidated joint venture contracts and our proportionate share of unconsolidated joint venture contracts. We generally include a project in our contract backlog at the time it is awarded and to the extent we believe funding is probable. Certain federal and municipal government contracts where funding is appropriated on a periodic basis are included in contract backlog at the time of the award when it is probable the contract value will be funded and executed. Existing contracts that include unexercised contract options and unissued task orders are included in contract backlog to the extent their issuance is probable or options are exercised. Substantially all of the contracts in our contract backlog may be canceled or modified at the election of the customer; however, we have not been materially adversely affected by contract cancellations or modifications in the past.

For the periods presented, this Construction contract backlog is related to contracts with public agencies.
Construction contract backlog of
$1.1 billion
at
June 30, 2016
was
$145.0 million
, or
14.5%
, higher than at
March 31, 2016
due to an improved success rate of bidding activity in the public sector of the Kenny, California and Northwest operating groups and the Heavy Civil operating group. Increases from improved success rate of bidding activity was partially offset by completion of existing projects in the private sector of the Kenny and Northwest operating groups without the offset of new awards. Significant new awards during the three months ended
June 30, 2016
, included a $20.0 million airport project in Alaska and a $118.6 million sewer lining project in Illinois.

Gross Profit
Revenue in an amount equal to cost incurred is recognized if there is not sufficient information to determine the estimated profit on the project with a reasonable level of certainty. Gross profit can vary significantly in periods where previously deferred profit is recognized on one or more projects or, conversely, if we have outstanding claims that are not probable or estimable.
The following table presents gross profit by business segment for the respective periods:

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and

months ended

increased
$1.2 million
, or
2.5%
, and
$6.3 million
, or
6.4%
, respectively, compared to the same periods in
2015
.
Selling Expenses
Selling expenses include the costs for estimating and bidding, business development and materials facility permits. Selling expenses can vary depending on the volume of projects in process and the number of employees assigned to estimating and bidding activities. As projects are completed or the volume of work slows down, we temporarily redeploy project employees to bid on new projects, moving their salaries and related costs from cost of revenue to selling expenses. Selling expenses during the three and
six
months ended
June 30, 2016
increased
$0.7 million
, or
5.0%
, and
$1.0 million
, or
3.7%
, respectively, compared to the same periods in
2015
primarily due to increases in salaries and related expenses from the timing of bidding activity.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses include costs related to our operational offices that are not allocated to direct contract costs and expenses related to our corporate functions. These costs include variable cash and restricted stock performance-based incentives for select management personnel on which our compensation strategy heavily relies. The cash portion of these incentives is expensed when earned while the restricted stock portion is expensed as earned over the vesting period of the restricted stock award (generally three years; however, immediate vesting may apply to certain awards). Other general and administrative expenses include travel and entertainment, outside services, information technology, depreciation, occupancy, training, office supplies, changes in the fair market value of our Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation plan liability and other miscellaneous expenses, none of which individually exceeded 10% of total general and administrative expenses. Total general and administrative expenses for the three and
six
months ended
June 30, 2016
increased
$0.5 million
, or
1.5%
and
$5.3 million
, or
7.4%
, respectively, compared to the same periods in
2015
primarily due to an increase in salaries and health insurance costs for the three month period ended and an increase in restricted stock unit amortization from awards issued in the first quarter of 2016, a portion of which immediately vested, for the six month period.

The amount attributable to non-controlling interests represents the non-controlling owners’ share of the income or loss of our consolidated construction joint ventures and real estate entities. The change for the three and
six
months ended
June 30, 2016
was primarily due
to an estimated recovery of back charge claims in 2016 and certain profitable projects nearing completion.
Certain Legal Proceedings
As discussed in Note 13 of “Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements,” under certain circumstances the resolution of certain legal proceedings to which we are subject could have direct or indirect consequences that could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, cash flows and/or liquidity.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The timing differences between our cash inflows and outflows require us to maintain adequate levels of working capital. We believe our cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, available borrowing capacity and cash expected to be generated from operations will be sufficient to meet our expected working capital needs, capital expenditures, financial commitments, cash dividend payments, and other liquidity requirements associated with our existing operations for the next twelve months. We maintain a collateralized credit facility of
$297.5 million
, of which
$186.7 million
was available at
June 30, 2016
, to provide capital needs to fund growth opportunities, either internal or generated through acquisitions (see Credit Agreement discussion below) or to pay installments on our 2019 Notes (see Senior Notes Payable discussion below). We do not anticipate that this credit facility will be required to fund future working capital needs associated with our existing operations. If we experience a prolonged change in our business operating results or make a significant acquisition, we may need to acquire additional sources of financing, which, if available, may be limited by the terms of our existing debt covenants, or may require the amendment of our existing debt agreements. There can be no assurance that sufficient capital will continue to be available in the future or that it will be available on terms acceptable to us.
27
We typically invoice our customers on a monthly basis. Our contracts frequently call for retention that is a specified percentage withheld from each payment until the contract is completed and the work accepted by the customer. Our revenue, gross profit and the resulting cash flows can differ significantly from period to period due to a variety of factors, including our projects’ progressions toward completion, outstanding contract change orders and claims and the payment terms of our contracts.
The following table presents our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, including amounts from our consolidated joint ventures (

The volume and stage of completion of contracts from our CCJVs may cause fluctuations in joint venture cash and cash equivalents between periods. These funds generally are not available for the working capital or other liquidity needs of Granite until distributed.
2
See Note 4 of “Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for the composition of our marketable securities.
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and cash generated from operations. We may also from time to time access our Credit Agreement (defined below), issue and sell equity, debt or hybrid securities or engage in other capital markets transactions.
Our cash and cash equivalents consisted of deposits and money market funds held with established national financial institutions. Marketable securities consist of U.S. Government and agency obligations and commercial paper.
Granite’s portion of consolidated joint venture cash and cash equivalents was
$30.4 million
,
$28.9 million
and
$29.9 million
as of
June 30, 2016
,
December 31, 2015
and
June 30, 2015
, respectively. Granite’s portion of unconsolidated joint venture cash and cash equivalents was
$127.4 million
,
$127.8 million
and
$104.5 million
as of
June 30, 2016
,
December 31, 2015
and
June 30, 2015
, respectively. The assets of each consolidated and unconsolidated construction joint venture relate solely to that joint venture. The decision to distribute joint venture assets must generally be made jointly by a majority of the members and, accordingly, these assets, including those associated with customer affirmative claims and back charge claims, are generally not available for the working capital needs of Granite until distributed.
Our principal uses of liquidity are paying the costs and expenses associated with our operations, servicing outstanding indebtedness, making capital expenditures and paying dividends on our capital stock. We may also from time to time prepay or repurchase outstanding indebtedness and acquire assets or businesses that are complementary to our operations, such as our acquisition of Kenny in December 2012.
Derivatives
We recognize derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value using Level 2 inputs.
In January 2016, we entered in to an interest rate swap designed to convert the interest rate on our term loan from variable to fixed (See Credit Agreement section below).
In March 2014, we entered into an interest rate swap designed to convert the interest rate on our 2019 Notes (as defined below) from fixed to variable (See Senior Notes Payable section below).
Our diesel and natural gas commodity swaps were settled in October 2015. As of
June 30, 2015
, the fair value of these swaps was
$1.6 million
and was included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the three and six months ended
June 30, 2015
, the amounts included in other (income) expense, net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations were immaterial.

As a large construction and heavy civil contractor and construction materials producer, our operating cash flows are subject to seasonal cycles, as well as the cycles associated with winning, performing and closing projects. Additionally, operating cash flows are impacted by the timing related to funding construction joint ventures and the resolution of uncertainties inherent in the complex nature of the work that we perform, including claims settlements.
Cash used in operating activities of
$53.9 million
for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2016
represents a
$2.7 million
decrease from the cash used in operating activities during the same period in
2015
. The change was primarily due to a
$31.9 million
increase in cash used in working capital, offset by an
$18.5 million
increase in net income after adjusting for non-cash items and a
$16.2 million
decrease in net contributions to unconsolidated joint ventures.
Cash used in investing activities of
$21.3 million
for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2016
represents a
$24.9 million
increase in the cash used in investing activities during the same period in
2015
. The change was primarily due to an increase in purchases, net of sales proceeds, of property and equipment (see Capital Expenditures discussion below) partially offset by an increase from maturities of marketable securities.
Cash used in financing activities of
$16.3 million
for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2016
represents a
$1.6 million
increase in the cash used in financing activities during the same period in
2015
. The change was primarily due to a
$1.6 million
increase in the repurchases of common stock related to shares surrendered to pay taxes for vested restricted stock.
Capital Expenditures
During the
six
months ended
June 30, 2016
, we had capital expenditures of
$48.8 million
compared to
$16.2 million
during the same period in
2015
. Major capital expenditures are typically for aggregate and asphalt production facilities, aggregate reserves, construction equipment, buildings and leasehold improvements and investments in our information technology systems. The timing and amount of such expenditures can vary based on the progress of planned capital projects, the type and size of construction projects, changes in business outlook and other factors. We currently anticipate 2016 capital expenditures to be between $70.0 million and $80.0 million, including significant investments in equipment for new CCJVs in our Large Project Construction segment, some of which were purchased during the six months ended
June 30, 2016
.
29
Credit Agreement
As of
June 30, 2016
, we had a
$297.5 million
credit facility, of which
$200.0 million
was a revolving credit facility and
$97.5 million
was a term loan that matures on October 28, 2020 (the “Maturity Date“) and has a sublimit for letters of credit of
$100.0 million
(the “Credit Agreement”).
Of the original
$100.0 million
term loan, we paid
1.25%
of the principal balance in March 2016 and June 2016. The remaining
$97.5 million
is due in nine quarterly installments in the amount of 1.25% of the original principal balance, 2.50% of the original principal balance is due in eight quarterly installments beginning in December 2018 and the remaining balance is due on the Maturity Date. As of
June 30, 2016
,
$92.5 million
of the
$97.5 million
term loan was included in long-term debt and the remaining
$5.0 million
was included in current maturities of long-term debt on the consolidated balance sheets.
As of
June 30, 2016
, the total stated amount of all issued and outstanding letters of credit was
$13.3 million
. The total unused availability under the Credit Agreement was
$186.7 million
. The letters of credit will expire between August 2016 and March 2017.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at LIBOR or a base rate (at our option), plus an applicable margin based on certain financial ratios calculated quarterly. LIBOR varies based on the applicable loan term, market conditions and other external factors. The applicable margin was
1.75%
for loans bearing interest based on LIBOR and
0.75%
for loans bearing interest at the base rate at
June 30, 2016
. Accordingly, the effective interest rate using three-month LIBOR and base rate was between
2.40%
and
4.25%
, respectively, at
June 30, 2016
and we elected to use LIBOR.
As of
June 30, 2016
, the fair value of the cash flow hedge that we entered into in January 2016, was
$2.1 million
and was included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the three and six months ended
June 30, 2016
, the losses, net of taxes, on the effective portion were
$0.4 million
and
$1.3 million
, respectively, and were reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. During the three and six months ended
June 30, 2016
there was no ineffective portion and the interest expense reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income was
$0.1 million
for both periods.
The Credit Agreement provides for the release of the liens securing the obligations, at our option and expense, so long as certain conditions as defined by the terms in the Credit Agreement are satisfied (“Collateral Release Period”). However, if subsequent to exercising the option, our Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is less than 1.25 or our Consolidated Leverage Ratio is greater than 2.50, then we would be required to promptly re-pledge substantially all of the assets of the Company and our subsidiaries that are guarantors or borrowers under the Credit Agreement. As of
June 30, 2016
, the conditions for the exercise of our right under the Credit Agreement to have liens released were not satisfied.
Senior Notes Payable
As of
June 30, 2016
, senior notes payable in the amount of
$160.0 million
were due to a group of institutional holders with four remaining annual installments from 2016 through 2019 and bear interest at
6.11%
per annum (“2019 Notes”). Of the $40.0 million due for the 2016 installment of the 2019 Notes, $30.0 million was included in long-term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of
June 30, 2016
and December 31, 2015, as we have the ability and intent to pay this installment using borrowings under the Credit Agreement or by obtaining other sources of financing.
As of
June 30, 2016
,
December 31, 2015
and
June 30, 2015
, the fair value of the interest rate swap that we entered into in March 2014, was
$1.7 million
,
$0.6 million
and
$0.9 million
and was included in other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the three and
six
months ended
June 30, 2016
, we recorded net gains of
$0.3 million
and
$1.6 million
, respectively, and during the three and six months ended
June 30, 2015
we recorded a net loss of less than $0.1 million and a net gain of
$1.3 million
, respectively, and these amounts were included in other income, net on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
30
Surety Bonds and Real Estate Mortgages
We are generally required to provide various types of surety bonds that provide an additional measure of security under certain public and private sector contracts. At
June 30, 2016
, approximately
$3.5 billion
of our contract backlog was bonded. Performance bonds do not have stated expiration dates; rather, we are generally released from the bonds after the owner accepts the work performed under contract. The ability to maintain bonding capacity to support our current and future level of contracting requires that we maintain cash and working capital balances satisfactory to our sureties.
Our unconsolidated real estate held for development and sale is subject to mortgage indebtedness. This indebtedness is non-recourse to Granite but is recourse to the real estate entity. The terms of this indebtedness are typically renegotiated to reflect the evolving nature of the real estate project as it progresses through acquisition, entitlement and development. Modification of these terms may include changes in loan-to-value ratios requiring the real estate entity to repay portions of the debt.
Covenants and Events of Default
Our debt and credit agreements require us to comply with various affirmative, restrictive and financial covenants, including the financial covenants described below. Our failure to comply with any of these covenants, or to pay principal, interest or other amounts when due thereunder, would constitute an event of default under the applicable agreements. Under certain circumstances, the occurrence of an event of default under one of our debt or credit agreements (or the acceleration of the maturity of the indebtedness under one of our agreements) may constitute an event of default under one or more of our other debt or credit agreements. Default under our debt and credit agreements could result in (i) us no longer being entitled to borrow under the agreements; (ii) termination of the agreements; (iii) the requirement that any letters of credit under the agreements be cash collateralized; (iv) acceleration of the maturity of outstanding indebtedness under the agreements and/or (v) foreclosure on any collateral securing the obligations under the agreements.
The most significant financial covenants under the terms of our Credit Agreement and 2019 NPA require the maintenance of a minimum Consolidated Tangible Net Worth, a minimum Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio and a maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio.
As of
June 30, 2016
and pursuant to the definitions in the agreements, our Consolidated Tangible Net Worth was
$827.1 million
, which exceeded the minimum of
$671.2 million
and our Consolidated Leverage Ratio was
1.72
, which did not exceed the maximum of
3.00
. Our Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio was
11.11
, which exceeded the minimum of
4.00
.
As of
June 30, 2016
, we were in compliance with all covenants contained in the Credit Agreement and related to the 2019 Notes. We are not aware of any non-compliance by any of our unconsolidated real estate entities with the covenants contained in their debt agreements.
Share Purchase Program
On October 24, 2007, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized us to purchase up to $200.0 million of our common stock at management’s discretion. On April 7, 2016, the Board of Directors authorized us to purchase up to $200.0 million of our common stock at management’s discretion, which replaced the former authorization including the amount available. We did not purchase shares under the share purchase program in any of the periods presented. The specific timing and amount of any future purchases will vary based on market conditions, securities law limitations and other factors.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management carried out, as of
June 30, 2016
, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of

During the quarter ended
June 30, 2016
, there were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
