What is Sterling Infrastructure (STRL), and what does it report?
Short answer · as of
Sterling is not merely a road-and-bridge contractor. Revenue combines contracts with transportation and water authorities, site development for data center and logistics customers, and concrete work for residential and commercial builders.
Research dated 2026-09-13.
Sterling is not merely a road-and-bridge contractor. Revenue combines contracts with transportation and water authorities, site development for data center and logistics customers, and concrete work for residential and commercial builders.
E-infrastructure contributes more revenue than the transportation and building businesses together. Consolidated results therefore measure private digital and logistics site work at least as much as conventional public infrastructure construction.
What do the latest results show for Sterling Infrastructure (STRL)?
Short answer · as of
The most recent reported quarter, Q2 FY2026, carried revenue of $1.17B.
Research dated 2026-09-13.
The latest reported period extended a sharp expansion: revenue, gross profit, operating income, net income and diluted earnings all rose from the preceding period, while reported revenue and earnings exceeded consensus. That followed a sustained run of positive surprises rather than isolated upside.
Management’s outlook explicitly includes contributions from CEC and Stone Ridge in e-infrastructure growth while calling for a modest decline in Building Solutions. Segment mix and acquired volume are therefore important when interpreting the consolidated acceleration.
Where is operating spending going?

What are the financial strengths and risks for Sterling Infrastructure (STRL)?
Short answer
Cash and short-term investments were $464.45M at the Jun 30, 2026 balance-sheet date. Operating cash flow was $162.45M for the quarter ended Jun 30, 2026, meaning operations generated cash. These figures do not establish a cash runway.
Research dated 2026-09-13.
Cash and short-term investments exceed total debt, with long-term investments adding another pool of financial assets. Operating cash flow stayed positive throughout the disclosed quarterly series and exceeded capital spending in every period; the distress and quality screens are also supportive.
The cushion requires context. Cash and short-term investments remain below their opening level across the reported window, total liabilities materially exceed liquid holdings, and valuation multiples already reflect strong margins and returns. E-infrastructure concentration adds project-cadence risk, while management expects weather to slow work on a significant project and Building Solutions to decline.
How much cash does the business generate or use?
Quarterly operating cash flow shows cash generated or used by operations.

What should you watch next at Sterling Infrastructure (STRL)?
Short answer · as of
The next earnings report is expected on Nov 2, 2026.
Research dated 2026-09-13.
The useful checkpoints are continued e-infrastructure expansion after the CEC and Stone Ridge contributions, a Building Solutions decline that remains modest, and operating cash flow that stays strong as management expects. Project timing also matters: the anticipated weather slowdown should be separated from any broader deterioration in execution or demand.
Recent results repeatedly cleared consensus, making the gap between reported performance and current expectations more informative than growth alone. Revenue quality will be stronger if operating profit and cash generation continue advancing alongside sales.
What management is planning
Management expectations, not completed milestones or guarantees. Selected verbatim excerpts; dates follow the transcript provider.
For full year 2026, we now expect to deliver E-Infrastructure segment revenue growth of over 100%, including the contribution from CEC and Stone Ridge.
Joseph Cutillo ·
In Building Solutions, we anticipate that revenue will decline modestly in 2026 and that adjusted operating margin will be in the high single to low double digits.
Joseph Cutillo ·
We expect continued strength in operating cash flow for the full year.

We expect to generate significant revenue on this project in the third quarter with a weather-related slowdown in the fourth quarter.

How does Sterling Infrastructure compare with its peers?
Short answer
Sterling Infrastructure's score ranks tied for 4th of 13 in the bounded comparison shown, against 12 same-model peers. These are company scores, not expected investment returns. The set lists named competitors first, then companies in the same data-provider industry classification closest in market value; that classification is the provider's, not our judgment of business similarity.
Research dated 2026-09-13.
A comparison based only on transportation contractors misses Sterling’s defining mix. E-infrastructure is the largest business and ties results directly to site development for data centers, e-commerce, warehousing and energy customers, while transportation preserves public-authority exposure and Building Solutions adds residential and commercial concrete work.
That combination offers several demand channels inside the same company, but it also makes segment mix essential when comparing margins or growth. Sterling’s recent profitability, cash generation and net cash position describe a financial profile that cannot be judged from public-works revenue alone.

Sterling Infrastructure Industrials Stock: Key Questions Answered
Research dated 2026-09-13; the answers below are from that research, and the full attribution is under Sources. The last 2 questions are answered from this page's own dated data, not from the research.
What does Sterling Infrastructure build for data center customers?
Sterling provides specialized site infrastructure development for data center projects. The work belongs to E-Infrastructure Solutions rather than the manufacture of servers or computing equipment.
Why can Sterling’s Building Solutions revenue fall while the company grows?
Building Solutions is smaller than E-Infrastructure Solutions, and management expects rapid e-infrastructure expansion including contributions from CEC and Stone Ridge. Growth in that larger segment can outweigh a modest building decline.
How exposed is Sterling Infrastructure to weather-related project timing?
Management expects significant revenue from a particular project before a weather-related slowdown. Quarterly revenue cadence can therefore reflect when site work is performed, not merely the direction of customer demand.
Does Sterling’s cash generation support its e-infrastructure expansion?
Operating cash flow has remained positive and comfortably above capital spending, while cash and short-term investments exceed debt. Cash has nevertheless declined across the reported window, so continued conversion of earnings into cash remains an important check on expansion.

The 80 rows below are exactly the facts the evidence-backed sections of this page printed — the 10-second verdict, the MoonshotScore, price and market value, the five questions with their receipts, and the records behind this page. Known dates and sources are recorded on their own rows; an em dash or UNRECORDED tier preserves a stored observation without inventing either. The quarterly income statement is provider-standardized (FMP) under one row, and scale definitions — a 0-100 rating, the band ladder, the Piotroski 0–9 range — are fixed rather than measured. No number in those sections was generated by a model.

"As of" is the date the value is true for where the source carries one — a quarter end, a filing date, a price close, the day the score was computed. A cached observation with no source date remains undated; the page publication date is not used as a substitute.
