description: "Granite Construction reported a record operational year with a 10% revenue increase and over 60% rise in net income, attracting institutional interest, including a new stake from Candelo Capital Management. The company has a US$7 billion project backlog, which supports its 2026 revenue guidance of US$4.9 to US$5.1 billion. While the outlook is positive, concerns about execution risks and rising costs remain. Analysts project varying future revenues, with some estimating a fair value of $135.50, while others suggest it could be as low as $124.00. Investors are encouraged to conduct their own research."
