Description: GLDD Great Lakes Dredge & Dock January 25, 2026
Great Lakes Dredge & Dock Corp. (NASDAQ:GLDD) is a Houston-based contractor that delivers a full spectrum of dredging and marine-construction services-including capital dredging for port expansions, coastal protection, trenching for pipelines and cables, maintenance dredging, and environmental restoration-for U.S. and international public and private clients.
Key recent metrics (as of Q3 2024): • Revenue grew 7% YoY to $1.12 billion, driven by a 12% increase in federal contract backlog, now at $2.3 billion (≈ 2 years of work). • EBITDA margin held at ~ 14%, reflecting stable equipment utilization despite higher fuel costs. • The U.S. Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act continues to fund coastal resilience projects, a sector driver that historically adds ~ 3–4% annual growth to the dredging market.
