Quarterly Report for Quarter Ending June 30, 2025 (Form 10-Q)
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This discussion contains "forward-looking statements" reflecting our current expectations, estimates and assumptions concerning events and financial trends that may affect our future operating results or financial position. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements due to several factors. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, economic and competitive conditions, regulatory changes, and other uncertainties, as well as those factors discussed in the Risk Factors section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (the "Annual Report on Form 10-K") filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission on March 12, 2025 (the "Annual Report on Form 10-K") and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, particularly in "Cautionary Statement about Forward-Looking Statements," all of which are difficult to predict. Considering these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed may not occur. We assume no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements, except to the extent required by applicable laws or rules. Unless the context otherwise requires, references to "Bowman," the "company," the "Company," "we," "us," and "our" refer to Bowman Consulting Group Ltd., its wholly owned subsidiaries and combined entities under common control, or either or all of them as the context may require.
Overview
Bowman is a professional services firm delivering innovative engineering, technology and program management services to customers who own, develop and maintain the built environment. We provide planning, engineering, construction management, commissioning, environmental consulting, geospatial imaging, surveying, land procurement and other technical services to customers operating in a diverse set of end markets. We work as both a prime and sub-consultant for a broad base of public and private sector customers that generally operate in highly regulated environments.
We have a diversified business that is not dependent on any one customer service line, geographic region, or end market. We are deliberate in our efforts to balance our sources of revenue and avoid reliance on any one significant customer, service line, geography or end market concentration. Our strategic focus is on penetrating and expanding our presence in markets which best afford us opportunities to secure assignments that provide reoccurring revenue and multi-year engagements thus resulting in dependable and predictable revenue streams and high employee utilization. We limit our exposure to risk by providing professional and related services exclusively. We do not engage in general contracting activities either directly, or through joint ventures, and therefore have no related exposure. We are not a partner in any design-build construction projects. We carry no heavy equipment inventory, and our risk of contract loss is generally limited to time associated with fixed fee professional services assignments.
Gross contract revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was $122.1 million and $104.5 million, respectively, representing year over year growth of 16.8%. Gross contract revenue derived from our workforce represented 88.5% and 90.0% of gross contract revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively (see Net service billing - non-GAAP below). Our net (loss) income for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was $6.0 million and ($2.1) million, respectively. Our Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was $20.2 million on net income of $6.0 million and $13.4 million on net loss of ($2.1) million, respectively. (see Adjusted EBITDA - non-GAAP below).
Gross contract revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was $235.0 million and $199.4 million, respectively, representing year over year growth of 17.9%. Gross contract revenue derived from our workforce represented 88.6% and 90.1% of gross contract revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively (see Net service billing - non-GAAP below). Our net (loss) income for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was $4.3 million and ($3.6) million, respectively. Our Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was $34.7 million on net income of $4.3 million and $25.5 million on net loss of ($3.6) million, respectively. (see Adjusted EBITDA - non-GAAP below)
Subsequent Events
Subsequent to June 30, 2025, the Company completed an acquisition, and paid total consideration of $2.7 million, subject to adjustments, through a combination of cash, promissory note, convertible note and assumed liabilities. No cash was acquired with this acquisition. Promissory notes bear a simple interest rate of 5.00% with payments of principal and interest beginning September 2025 and ending in June 2028. The convertible note bears a simple interest rate of 5.00% and may be convertible in whole or in part at any time to Bowman common stock and is subject to a six-month lock-up. The
purchase agreement includes a contingent consideration provision that affords the sellers the opportunity to earn up to $2.8 million in additional consideration payable in the form of cash, a convertible note, and a promissory note, based on the achievement of certain financial performance thresholds.
Methods of Evaluation
We use a variety of financial and other information in monitoring the financial condition and operating performance of our business. Some of the information we use to evaluate our operations is financial information that is in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), while other information may be financial in nature and either built upon GAAP results or may not be in accordance with GAAP (Non-GAAP). We use all this information together for planning and monitoring our operations, as well as determining certain management and employee compensation.
The Company operates as a single business segment represented by our core business of providing multi-disciplinary professional engineering solutions to customers. While we evaluate revenue and other key performance indicators relating to various divisions of labor, our leadership neither manages the business nor deliberately allocates resources by service line, geography, or end market. Our financial statements present results as a single operating segment.
Components of Income and Expense
Revenue
We generate revenue from services performed by our employees, pass-through fees from sub-consultants, and reimbursable contract costs. On our condensed consolidated financial statements, we report gross revenue, which represents total revenue billed to customers excluding taxes collected from customers. Gross revenue less revenue derived from pass-through sub-consultant fees, reimbursable expenses and other direct expenses represents our net service billing, or that portion of our gross revenue attributable to services performed by our employees. Our industry uses the calculation underlying net service billing to normalize peer performance assessments and provide meaningful insight into trends over time. Refer to - Other Financial Data, Non-GAAP measurements and Key Performance Indicatorsbelow for further discussion of the use of this non-GAAP financial measure.
We generally do not generate profit from the pass-through of sub-consultants and reimbursable expenses. As such, contract profitability is most heavily impacted by the mix of labor utilized to complete the tasks and the efficiency of those resources in completing the tasks. Our largest direct contract cost is consistently our labor. To grow our revenue and maximize overall profitability we carefully monitor and manage our cost of labor and the utilization thereof. Maintaining an optimal level of utilization on a balanced pool of growing labor resources represents our greatest prospect for delivering increasing profitability.
We enter into contracts that contain two types of pricing characteristics:
Lump sum contracts, also referred to as fixed fee, typically require the performance of some, or all, of the obligations under the contract for a specified amount, subject to price adjustments only if the scope of the project changes or unforeseen requirements arise. Our fixed fee contracts generally include a specific scope of work and defined deliverables. Lump sum contracts can involve both hourly and fixed fee tasks.
Hourly contracts, also referred to as time and materials, are common for professional and technical consulting assignments both short-term and multi-year in duration. Under these types of contracts, there is no predetermined maximum fee and we generally experience no risk associated with cost overruns. For hourly contracts, we negotiate billing rates and charge our customers based upon the actual hours expended toward a deliverable. These contracts may have not-to-exceed parameters requiring us to receive additional authorizations from our customer to continue working, but we likewise do not have to continue working without assurances of payment for such additional work.
Our assignments that are lump sum in nature represent approximately 61% and 59% of our gross contract revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, assignments that are lump sum in nature represented approximately 61% and 59% of our gross contract revenue, respectively. Recognizing revenue from lump sum assignments requires management estimates of both total contract value when there are contingent compensation elements of the fee arrangement and expected cost at completion. We closely monitor our progress to completion and adjust our estimates when necessary. We do not recognize revenue from work that is performed at risk with no documented customer commitment.
Contract Costs
Contract costs consist of direct payroll costs, sub-consultant costs and other direct expenses exclusive of depreciation and amortization.
Direct payroll costs represent the portion of salaries and wages incurred in connection with the production of deliverables under customer assignments and contracts. Direct payroll costs include allocated fringe costs (i.e. health benefits, employer payroll taxes, and retirement plan contributions), paid leave and incentive compensation.
Sub-consultants and direct expenses include both sub-consultants and other outside costs associated with performance under our contracts. Sub-consultant and direct costs are generally reimbursable by our customers under the terms of our contracts.
Performance under our contracts does not involve significant machinery or other long term depreciable assets. Most of the equipment we employ involves desktop computers and other shared ordinary course IT equipment, along with various geospatial systems and scanners. We present direct costs exclusive of depreciation and amortization and as such we do not present gross profit on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Operating Expense
Operating expenses consist of selling, general and administrative costs, non-cash stock compensation, depreciation and amortization and settlements and other non-core expenses.
Selling, general and administrative expenses represent corporate and other general overhead expenses, salaries and wages not allocated to customer projects including management and administrative personnel costs, incentive compensation, personal leave, office lease and occupancy costs, legal, professional and accounting fees.
Non--cash stock compensation represents the expenses incurred with respect to shares and options issued by the Company, both vested and unvested, to employees as long-term incentives. This expense is based on the amortization of the grant date fair value of equity grants over the vesting period. Non-cash stock compensation cost for permanent equity is the grant date fair value of the awards, or the Black-Sholes-Merton value of stock options on the grant date, recognized ratably over the vesting periods of each award. Stock issued as consideration in connection with acquisitions where there is no service period, and no risk of forfeiture, is considered a component of the purchase price and does not run through our income statement as non-cash compensation expense. Future non-cash stock compensation expense for unvested shares is the cumulative total of the unvested portion of all issued and outstanding awards and their individual grant date fair values. Stock awards will continue to be an important part of our long-term retention and rewards philosophy.
Depreciation and amortization represent the depreciation and amortization expense of our property and general IT equipment, capital lease assets, tenant improvements and intangible assets.
(Gain) loss on sale represents gains or losses inclusive of foreign exchange and accumulated depreciation recapture resulting from the disposal of an asset upon the sale or retirement of such asset.
Other (Income) Expense
Other (income) expense consists of other non-operating and non-core expenses.
Tax (Benefit) Expense
Income tax (benefit) expense, current and deferred, includes estimated federal, state and local tax expense associated with our net income, as apportioned to the states in which we operate. Estimates of our tax expense include both current and deferred tax expense along with all available tax incentives and credits.
Other Financial Data, Non-GAAP Measurements and Key Performance Indicators
Backlog
We measure the value of our undelivered gross revenue in real time to calculate our backlog and predict future revenue. Backlog includes awarded, contracted, and otherwise secured commitments along with revenue we expect to
realize over time for predictable long-term and reoccurring assignments. We report backlog quarterly as of the end of the last day of the reporting period. We use backlog to predict revenue growth and anticipate appropriate future staffing needs. Backlog definitions and methods of calculation vary within our industry. As such, backlog is not a reliable metric on which to evaluate us relative to our peers. Backlog neither derives from, nor reconciles to, any GAAP results.
Net Service Billing
In the normal course of providing services to our customers, we routinely subcontract services and incur direct third-party contract expenses that may or may not be reimbursable and may or may not be billed to customers with mark-up. Gross revenue less revenue derived from pass-through sub-consultant fees and reimbursable expenses represents our net service billing, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, and is the portion of our gross contract revenue attributable to services performed by our employees. Because the ratio of sub-contractor and direct expense costs to gross billing varies between contracts, gross revenue is not necessarily indicative of trends in our business. As a professional services company, we believe that metrics derived from net service billings more accurately demonstrate the productivity and profitability of our workforce than do those derived from gross revenue. Our industry uses the calculation of net service billing to normalize peer performance assessments and provide meaningful insight into trends over time.
Adjusted EBITDA
We view Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as an important indicator of normalized performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest expense, income taxes and depreciation and amortization, plus expenses associated with discontinued operations, legal settlements not related to our general course of business professional services, and other costs not in the ordinary course of business, non-cash stock-based compensation (inclusive of expenses associated with the adjustment of our liability for common shares subject to redemption), and other adjustments such as costs associated with raising equity and other forms of capital. Our peers may define Adjusted EBITDA differently.
Adjusted EBITDA Margin, net
Adjusted EBITDA Margin, net, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, represents Adjusted EBITDA, as defined above, as a percentage of net service billings, as defined above.

Three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024
Gross Contract Revenue
Gross contract revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025, increased $17.6 million or 16.8% to $122.1 million as compared to $104.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, gross contract revenue attributable to work performed by our workforce increased $14.0 million, or 14.9% to $108.0 million or 88.5% of gross contract revenue as compared to $94.0 million or 90.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 (see Net service billing - non-GAAP). Of the $17.6 million increase in gross contract revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2025, acquisitions represented $6.5 million of the increase. To evaluate the Company's growth, revenue from acquisitions is treated as acquired for a period of four quarters post-closing, after which it is considered organic. For each measurement and comparison period, historical balances of acquired and organic revenue bases are adjusted to reflect revenue accordingly.

1Includes periodic reclassifications of revenue between categories from prior periods for consistency of presentation. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, $3.5 million of data center revenue was reclassified from Building Infrastructure to Power & Utilities.
2Formerly Emerging Markets which represents environmental, mining, water resources, imaging and mapping and other.
3Acquired revenue in prior periods is as previously reported; four quarters post-closing, acquired revenue is reclassified as organic for the purpose of calculating organic growth rates.
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, gross contract revenue from the building infrastructure market increased $4.1 million or 7.9% as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. Building Infrastructure includes commercial, municipal and residential infrastructure. The increase in building infrastructure revenue was the result of acquisitions. Within the building infrastructure market, 37.1% of gross contract revenue was derived from residential assignments including single family, multi-family and mixed-use housing stock, 45.4% from commercial assignments including retail, hospitality and quick-serve restaurants (QSR), office and industrial, data centers and healthcare, and 17.5% from municipal assignments, including parks and schools. Within residential, 46.8% of gross contract revenue was derived from for-sale homebuilding assignments, 46.9% from residential multi-family and 6.3% from mixed use projects. While the homebuilding market shows signs of rebounding from prior year interest rate impacts, for-sale residential services represented just 8.0% of our total gross contract revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Within commercial, 44.1% of revenue was derived from office and industrial assignments, 51.5% from retail, hospitality, and quick serve restaurants, and 4.4% from healthcare. We continue to experience strong demand for our building infrastructure services and maintain a positive outlook on this market as we continue to experience strength in markets including quick serve restaurants, industrial distribution facilities, schools, and build-for-rent communities.
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, revenue from transportation increased $5.4 million or 28.0% as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was attributable to new contract awards in transportation from roadways, transits, ports and harbors, program administration and others, along with acquired transportation backlog which we were able to deliver to customers. Within transportation, 63.8% of our gross contract revenue was derived from public sector roadway customers, including state and local departments of transportation ("DOTs") and tollway operators; 25.3% from private sector roadway customers; 2.5% from ports & harbors customers; 2.7% from aviation customers; and 5.7% from bus, rail, and transit customers. We expect to continue to increase our transportation revenue and improve the
diversification of our revenue. We believe the transportation market continues to present significant opportunity for future growth and we remain committed to investing in leadership, technical expertise, business development and acquisitions for this market.
With the convergence of alternative energy, data centers, and traditional transmission infrastructure, and in light of continued growth we are projecting across these areas, we have consolidated alternative energy and data centers into the power and utilities (sometimes referred to herein as the power, utilities and energy market) of our revenue mix and have adjusted historical balances accordingly. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, revenue from power and utilities increased $3.9 million or 17.1% as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. The additional increase in gross contract revenue from the power and utilities market is principally attributable to acquisitions and increased revenue associated with the expansion of a multi-year utility undergrounding assignment in Florida, along with additional increases derived from gas pipeline and electric transmission projects nationally. Within the power and utilities market, 60.1% of our gross contract revenue was derived from customers operating traditional transmission operations, 23.8% was derived from customers focused on alternative energy operations and 16.1% derived from data center customers. The power and utilities market continues to experience increasing infrastructure investment as changing weather patterns, energy transition mandates and other safety initiatives positively impact demand for the services we provide. Based on recent increases in program commitments within the gas pipeline replacement market, we believe trends in power and utilities provide meaningful opportunity for continued growth and we are committed to investing resources accordingly.
Our natural resources and imaging (formerly emerging markets) consist of mining, water resources, imaging and mapping, environmental consulting, and other natural resources services. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, revenue from natural resources and imaging markets increased $4.2 million or 42.0% as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. This increase is primarily due to the acquisition of Surdex Corporation; see Note 4- Acquisitionsfor additional information. What was previously classified under emerging sectors has now grown to a scale that warrants separate market recognition. As a result, the emerging sector is now being renamed natural resources and imaging. This updated name reflects the evolving composition of the market. Gross contract revenue within our natural resources and imaging was 49.7% from imaging and mapping activities, 16.3% from mining activities where we have specialized in copper mining, 28.1% from water resources activities, and 6.0% from environmental and other natural resources consulting. Scarcities in water resources and the increasing need for water management gives us confidence that we will be able to increase revenue accordingly. With recent and future acquisitions, we expect to experience continued growth from investment in various natural resources and imaging services.
For the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, public sector customers, defined as direct contracts with municipalities, public agencies, or governmental authorities, represented 35.4% and 24.6% of our gross contract revenue, respectively. A portion of that increase is due to the reclassification of contracts for the Pike Corporation from the private sector to the public sector. This does not include work done indirectly on public sector projects. Gross contract revenue from projects for public sector customers are included in the end market most aligned with work performed.
Contract costs (exclusive of depreciation and amortization)
Total contract costs, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, increased $6.9 million or 13.9% to $56.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $49.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, total contract costs represented 46.3% and 47.5% of total contract revenue, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 total contract costs represented 52.3% and 52.8% of revenue attributable to our workforce, respectively (see Net Service Billing).
Direct payroll costs increased $3.3 million or 8.4% to $42.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $39.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Direct payroll accounted for 75.0% of total contract costs for the three months ended June 30, 2025, a decrease of 3.8% as compared to 78.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Direct labor, the component of direct payroll costs associated with the cost of labor relating to work performed on contracts increased $3.7 million or 12.7% to $32.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to $29.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in direct labor is primarily due to an increase in staffing to accommodate growth. For the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, direct labor costs represented 26.9% and 27.8% of gross contract revenue, respectively, and represented 30.4% and 31.0% of the revenue attributable to our workforce, respectively.
Other direct payroll costs, the component of direct payroll costs associated with fringe and incentive compensation (cash and non-cash) decreased by ($0.5) million or (5.0)% to $9.5 million as compared to $10.0 million.
Sub-consultants and other direct expenses increased $3.6 million or 34.3% to $14.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to $10.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, sub-consultant and other direct expenses represented 11.5% and 10.0% of gross contract revenue, respectively.
Operating Expense
Total operating expense increased $0.4 million or 0.7% to $56.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to $56.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $0.6 million or 1.2% to $49.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $49.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Indirect labor increased $0.8 million or 3.6% to $22.9 million as compared to $22.1 million due to increase in headcount along with merit increases. General overhead increased $0.9 million or 5.2% to $18.1 million as compared to $17.2 million due to increased costs associated with the overall growth of the Company.
Depreciation and amortization decreased $0.7 million or (9.7)% to $6.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to $7.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. This decrease is primarily due to a decrease in amortization of intangibles. The net loss (gain) on the sale of certain IT equipment and automobiles increased $0.4 million to $0.2 million of expense for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to ($0.2) million of gain in the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Other (Income) Expense
Other expense decreased by $0.4 million to $1.6 million of expense for the three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by $1.1 million in acquisition-related gains, partially offset by a $0.5 million increase in interest expense.
Income Tax Expense (Benefit)
Income tax expense (benefit) for the three months ended June 30, 2025, increased $2.6 million to $1.4 million expense, compared to ($1.2) million benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2024, see Note 2, Income Taxes. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2025, was 18.9% compared to 36.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Income (Loss) Before Tax and Net Income (Loss)
Income (loss) before tax increased by $10.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, to $7.4 million of income compared to ($3.3) million of loss for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Net income (loss) increased by $8.1 million to $6.0 million of net income for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to ($2.1) million of net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Because sub-consultants and reimbursable expenses are most often pass-through items with little or no mark-up, they generally have a dilutive effect on gross, operating, and net margins while having little accretive effect on profitability. As such, where possible, we focus our resources and business development efforts principally on increasing revenue derived from our own workforce. Management primarily focuses its internal performance metrics on net service billing.

Gross Contract Revenue
Gross contract revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025, increased $35.6 million or 17.9% to $235.0 million as compared to $199.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, gross contract revenue attributable to work performed by our workforce increased $28.4 million, or 15.8% to $208.1 million or 88.6% of gross contract revenue as compared to $179.7 million or 90.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 (see Net service billing - non-GAAP). Of the $35.6 million increase in gross contract revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2025, acquisitions represented $11.5 million of the increase. To evaluate the Company's growth, revenue from acquisitions is treated as acquired for a period of four quarters post-closing, after which it is considered organic. For each measurement and comparison period, historical balances of acquired and organic revenue bases are adjusted to reflect revenue accordingly.

1Includes periodic reclassifications of revenue between categories from prior periods for consistency of presentation. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, $6.8 million of data center revenue was reclassified from Building Infrastructure to Power & Utilities.
2Formerly Emerging Markets which represents environmental, mining, water resources, imaging and mapping and other.
3Acquired revenue in prior periods is as previously reported; four quarters post-closing, acquired revenue is reclassified as organic for the purpose of calculating organic growth rates.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, gross contract revenue from our building infrastructure market increased $6.7 million or 6.6% as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. Building infrastructure includes commercial, municipal and residential infrastructure. The increase in building infrastructure revenue is the result of acquisitions. Within the building infrastructure market, 39.6% of gross contract revenue was derived from residential assignments including single family, multi-family and mixed-use housing stock, 42.5% from commercial assignments including retail, hospitality and quick-serve restaurants (QSR), office and industrial, data centers and healthcare, and 17.9% from municipal assignments including, parks and schools. Within residential, 47.9% of gross contract revenue was derived from for-sale homebuilding assignments, 44.6% from residential multi-family and 7.5% from mixed use projects. While the homebuilding market shows signs of rebounding from prior year interest rate impacts, for-sale residential services represented just 8.8% of our total gross contract revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Within commercial, 45.9% of revenue was derived from office and industrial assignments, 49.5% from retail, hospitality, and quick serve restaurants, and 4.6% from healthcare. We continue to experience strong demand for our building infrastructure services and maintain a positive outlook on this market as we continue to experience strength in markets including quick serve restaurants, industrial distribution facilities, schools, and build-for-rent communities.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, revenue from transportation increased $11.0 million or 29.4% as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was attributable to new contract awards in transportation from roadways, transits, ports and harbors, program administration and others, along with acquired transportation backlog which we were able to deliver to customers. Within transportation, 61.5% of our gross contract revenue was derived from public sector roadway customers, including state and local departments of transportation ("DOTs") and tollway operators; 27.8% from private sector roadway customers; 2.1% from ports & harbors customers; 2.3% from aviation customers; and 6.3% from bus, rail, and transit customers. We expect to continue to increase our transportation revenue and improve the diversification of our revenue. We believe the transportation market continues to present significant opportunity for future
growth and we remain committed to investing in leadership, technical expertise, business development and acquisitions for this market.
With the convergence of alternative energy, data centers, and traditional transmission infrastructure, and in light of continued growth we are projecting across these areas, we have consolidated alternative energy and data centers into the power and utilities (sometimes referred to herein as the power, utilities and energy market) of our revenue mix and have adjusted historical balances accordingly. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, revenue from power and utilities increased $7.4 million or 16.5% as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The additional increase in gross contract revenue from the power and utilities market is principally attributable to acquisitions and increased revenue associated with the expansion of a multi-year utility undergrounding assignment in Florida, and to increases derived from gas pipeline and electric transmission projects nationally. Within the power and utilities market, 61.4% of our gross contract revenue was derived from customers operating traditional transmission operations, 22.9% was derived from customers focused on alternative energy operations, with the remaining 15.7% derived from data center customers. The power and utilities market continues to experience increasing infrastructure investment as changing weather patterns, energy transition mandates and other safety initiatives positively impact demand for the services we provide. Based on recent increases in program commitments within the gas pipeline replacement market, we believe trends in power and utilities provide meaningful opportunity for continued growth and we are committed to investing resources accordingly.
Our natural resources and imaging (formerly emerging markets) consist of mining, water resources, imaging and mapping, environmental consulting, and other natural resources services. Adjusted for the change, for the six months ended June 30, 2025, revenue from natural resources and imaging markets increased $10.5 million or 68.0% as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. This increase is primarily due to the acquisition of Surdex Corporation; see Note 4 - Acquisitionsfor additional information. What was previously classified under emerging sectors has now grown to a scale that warrants separate market recognition. As a result, the emerging sector is now being renamed natural resources and imaging. This updated name reflects the evolving composition of the market. Gross contract revenue within our natural resources and imaging was 48.8% from imaging and mapping activities, 17.7% from mining activities where we have specialized in copper mining, 27.5% from water resources activities, and 6.0% from environmental and other natural resources consulting. Scarcities in water resources and the increasing need for water management gives us confidence that we will be able to increase revenue accordingly. With recent and future acquisitions, we expect to experience continued growth from investment in various natural resources and imaging services.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, public sector customers, defined as direct contracts with municipalities, public agencies, or governmental authorities, represented 33.8% and 22.3% of our gross contract revenue, respectively. A portion of that increase is due to the reclassification of contracts for the Pike Corporation from the private sector to the public sector. This does not include work done indirectly on public sector projects. Gross contract revenue from projects for public sector clients are included in the end market most aligned with work performed.
Contract costs (exclusive of depreciation and amortization)
Total contract costs, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, increased $14.9 million or 15.4% to $111.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $96.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, total contract costs represented 47.4% and 48.4% of total contract revenue, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 total contract costs represented 53.5% and 53.7% of revenue attributable to our workforce, respectively (see Net Service Billing).
Direct payroll costs increased $7.6 million or 9.9% to $84.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $76.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Direct payroll accounted for 75.8% of total contract costs for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an decrease of 3.8 percentage points as compared to 79.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Direct labor, the component of direct payroll costs associated with the cost of labor relating to work performed on contracts increased $7.3 million or 12.8% to $64.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to $56.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in direct labor is primarily due to an increase in staffing to accommodate growth. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, direct labor costs represented 27.3% and 28.5% of gross contract revenue, respectively and represented 30.9% and 31.7% of the revenue attributable to our workforce, respectively.
Other direct payroll costs, the component of direct payroll costs associated with fringe and incentive compensation (cash and non-cash) increased by $0.3 million or 1.5% to $20.2 million as compared to $19.9 million.
Sub-consultants and other direct expenses increased $7.3 million or 37.1% to $27.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to $19.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, sub-consultant and other direct expenses represented 11.5% and 9.9% of gross contract revenue, respectively.
Operating Expense
Total operating expense increased $6.8 million or 6.4% to $113.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to $106.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $6.3 million or 6.7% to $100.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $93.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Indirect labor increased $3.7 million or 8.9% to $45.5 million as compared to $41.8 million primarily due to an increase in staffing to accommodate growth. General overhead increased $3.7 million or 11.6% to $35.6 million as compared to $31.9 million due to increased costs associated with the overall growth of the Company.
Depreciation and amortization decreased $0.1 million or (0.8)% to $13.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to $13.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The net loss (gain) on the sale of certain IT equipment and automobiles increased $0.5 million to $0.2 million of expense for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to ($0.3) million of gain for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Other (Income) Expense
Other expense decreased by $0.7 million to $3.7 million of expense for the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by $1.5 million in acquisition-related gains, partially offset by a $0.5 million increase in interest expense and a $0.3 million decrease in miscellaneous income.
Income Tax Expense (Benefit)
Income tax expense (benefit) for the six months ended June 30, 2025, increased $6.8 million to $2.2 million expense, as compared to ($4.6) million benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2024, see note 2, Income Taxes. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2025, was 33.7% as compared to 56.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Income (Loss) Before Tax and Net Income (Loss)
Income (loss) before tax increased by $14.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, to $6.4 million of income compared to ($8.3) million of loss for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Net income increased by $7.9 million to $4.3 million of net income for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to ($3.6) million of net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Net service billing (non-GAAP)
Net service billing increased $28.4 million or 15.8% to $208.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $179.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Net service billing reconciles to gross contract revenue as follows (in thousands):

| Net service billing | $ | 208,050 | $ | 179,671 | |||||||
Because sub-consultants and reimbursable expenses are most often pass-through items with little or no mark-up, they generally have a dilutive effect on gross, operating, and net margins while having little accretive effect on profitability. As such, where possible, we focus our resources and business development efforts principally on increasing revenue derived from our own workforce. Management primarily focuses its internal performance metrics on net service billing.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash and cash equivalents balances, cash flow from operations, borrowing capacity under our Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below), lease financing, proceeds from stock sales and other structured debt securities. Our principal uses of cash are operating expenses, working capital requirements, capital expenditures, repayment of debt, acquisitions, and acquisition related payments. On June 30, 2025, we maintained a $140.0 million Revolving Credit Facility with Bank of America, our primary lender. See -"Credit Facilities and Other Financing"below for more information on our Revolving Credit Facility. Under the terms of our Revolving Credit Facility, available cash in our primary operating account sweeps against the outstanding balance every evening. Our cash on hand therefore generally consists of petty cash and other non-operating funds not included in the nightly sweep. Cash on hand includes the cash we keep in short-term investment accounts along with deposits and payments in transit in our operating sweep account. Our cash on hand increased by $8.8 million on June 30, 2025 as compared to December 31, 2024.
We regularly monitor our capital requirements and believe our sources of liquidity, including cash flow from operations, existing cash, and borrowing availability under our credit and lease facilities will be sufficient to fund our projected cash requirements and strategic initiatives for the next year. To the extent we experience any potential liquidity or capital shortfalls relating to growth and acquisition, we currently expect to rely on debt financing to meet those shortfalls. We use our equity as a component of consideration in acquisitions. In addition, depending on market conditions, we may opportunistically access the public debts and equity markets.
We are actively pursuing acquisitions as part of our strategic growth initiative. At any given time, we are assessing multiple opportunities at varying stages of due diligence. These acquisition opportunities range in size, timing of closing, valuation, and composition of consideration. In connection with acquisitions, we use a combination of cash, bank financing, seller financing, and equity to satisfy the purchase price. Currently, we have several acquisitions under consideration. There can be no assurance that any opportunity in the process of being reviewed will close but we expect over time to utilize a meaningful portion of our current liquidity and capital resources for acquisitions.

Operating Activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, net cash provided by operating activities was $16.3 million, which primarily consisted of $4.3 million net income, adjusted for stock-based compensation expense of $9.7 million and depreciation and amortization expense of $13.1 million, offset by deferred taxes of $12.2 million and a net cash inflow of $0.2 million from changes in operating assets and liabilities. The net outflow from changes in operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to a $3.2 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets, and a $5.6 million increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses, partially offset by a $8.1 million increase in accounts receivable resulting from a combination of acquired accounts receivable from acquisitions and an increased billing to our customers and a $3.2 million increase in contract assets and liabilities.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities decreased by $18.8 million to $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to $20.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in net cash used for investing is primarily attributable to the greater number of acquisitions that occurred in the first quarter of 2024 compared to 2025.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $5.6 million compared to $17.5 million provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $23.1 million. The increase in net cash used in financing is primarily attributable to the net proceeds of $22.5 million from borrowing on the Revolving Credit Facility, offset by $5.6 million from payments on finance leases, $9.5 million for repurchase of common stock, $8.9 million used for repayment of notes and $3.9 million used to purchase treasury shares.
Credit Facilities and Other Financing
As of June 30, 2025, we maintained a $140.0 million revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") pursuant to a credit agreement with lenders, Bank of America N.A., as Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and L/C Issuer, and TD Bank, N.A. as syndication agent (as amended, the "Credit Agreement"). The Revolving Credit Facility has a maturity date of May 2, 2029. Under the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility, available cash in our primary operating account sweeps against the outstanding balance every evening. As of June 30, 2025, the balance on the Revolving Credit Facility was $59.5 million.
The Revolving Credit Facility is secured by all the assets of the Company and the subsidiary guarantors. Under the Revolving Credit Facility, we are required to comply with certain covenants, including covenants on indebtedness, investments, liens and restricted payments, as well as to maintain certain financial covenants, including a fixed charge coverage ratio and leverage ratio of debt to EBITDA (as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility). At June 30, 2025, we were in compliance with all covenants.
We utilize master lease facilities primarily with Dext Capital ("Dext") (formerly Honour Capital, LLC) and Enterprise Leasing ("Enterprise"). The Dext lease facility finances our acquisition of IT infrastructure, geospatial and survey equipment, furniture and other long-lived assets. The Enterprise lease facility finances the acquisition of field trucks and other service vehicles. At June 30, 2025, we maintained a fleet of approximately 500 vehicles. All of our leasing facilities allow for both operating and finance leasing. We allocate finance lease payments between amortization and interest. The payment terms on the lease agreements range between 30 and 50 months with payments totaling approximately $1.1 million per month. We utilize a third party valuation specialist to formulate the incremental borrowing rates for the Company, to calculate the present value on new leases.
We regularly evaluate our options with respect to capital and our requirements for operations and growth. We do not limit our consideration to traditional bank financing, but rather include other structured debt and equity as option for additional capital.
For more information about our credit facilities, see Note 11 - Revolving Credit Facilities.
Registration Statement
We have filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (the "Shelf Registration Statement"), which enables us to issue shares of our common stock and preferred stock, warrants and rights to purchase any of such securities and/or debt securities, either individually or in units, in one or more offerings. We will file a prospectus supplement containing the amount and type of securities each time we issue securities under our Shelf Registration Statement. On April 1, 2024, we sold 1,502,942 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of approximately $51.1 million pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, as supplemented by the prospectus supplement dated March 26, 2024. The selling stockholders in the offering sold an aggregate of 188,234 shares of common stock. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock by the selling stockholders in the Offering.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no material off-balance sheet arrangements, no special purpose entities, and no activities that include non-exchange-traded contracts accounted for at fair value.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We use estimates in the determination of certain financial results. Estimates used in financial reporting utilize only information available to us at the time of formulation. These estimates are subject to change as new information becomes available.
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to the critical accounting policies relating to the use of estimates described in our Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
