MYR Group reported second-quarter earnings that topped analyst estimates, driven by strong demand across its transmission and distribution and commercial and industrial segments.
"Strong execution across our project portfolio drove the quarterly outperformance," CEO Rick Swartz said in a statement.
The company posted adjusted earnings per share of $3.17, beating the $2.646 consensus estimate by $0.524, or 19.8%. Revenue reached $1.082 billion, exceeding the $1.016 billion forecast by about 6.5%.
