Credit Agreement
On August 5, 2025, we entered into the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement consists of (1) a $600.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”), (2) a $600.0 million senior secured term loan (the “Initial Term Loan”) and (3) an additional $75.0 million senior secured term loan (the “Delayed Draw Term Loan” and together with the Initial Term Loan, the “Term Loans”). The Delayed Draw Term Loan may be borrowed from the closing date of the Credit Agreement until six months after the closing date (the “Term Loan Availability Period”), subject to voluntary termination by the Company of the Delayed Draw Term Loan commitments and termination of the Delayed Draw Term Loan commitments upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement) at the request of or with the consent of the required lenders. The Credit Agreement also includes an accordion feature that allows us to increase borrowings under the Revolver, request a new tranche of term loans, or issue one or more series of notes (whether issued in a public offering, Rule 144A or other private placement or purchase or otherwise) or loans or any bridge financing pursuant to financing documentation other than the Credit Agreement, or a combination thereof, in an amount not to exceed (1) the greater of (a) $535.0 million and (b) the amount equal to 100% of Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit
Agreement), calculated on a pro forma basis, plus (2) unlimited additional amounts so long as on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the incurrence of additional indebtedness and after giving effect to all other appropriate pro forma adjustments, the ratio of consolidated funded secured indebtedness to Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) does not exceed 1.25 to 1.0, in each case, subject to lender approval. The Credit Agreement includes a $150.0 million sublimit for letters of credit ($75.0 million for financial letters of credit) and a $20.0 million sublimit for swingline loans.
As of September 30, 2025, the total unused availability under the Revolver was $580.4 million, resulting from $19.6 million in issued and outstanding letters of credit and no amount drawn under the Revolver. The letters of credit had expiration dates between October 2025 and October 2026.
We may borrow under the Credit Agreement, at our option, at either (a) term SOFR plus an applicable margin initially and through the delivery of the March 31, 2026 compliance certificate of 1.75% and then ranging from 1.25% to 2.0%, or (b) a base rate plus an applicable margin initially and through the delivery of the March 31, 2026 compliance certificate of 0.75% and then ranging from 0.25% to 1.0%. After delivery of the March 31, 2026 compliance certificate, the applicable margin will be based on our consolidated leverage ratio set forth on the most recent compliance certificate delivered quarterly. In addition, we have agreed to pay an unused commitment fee initially and through the delivery of the March 31, 2026 compliance certificate of 0.300% and then ranging from 0.175% to 0.350%, depending on our consolidated leverage ratio set forth on the most recent compliance certificate delivered quarterly. Further, during the Term Loan Availability Period, we have agreed to pay a ticking fee ranging from 0.175% to 0.350%, depending on our consolidated leverage ratio, on the amount by which the commitment for Term Loans of $675.0 million exceeds the amount of outstanding Term Loans. The ticking fee will be payable beginning on the 60th day after closing and during the Term Loan Availability Period or until the Delayed Draw Term Loan is made. The Term Loans and Revolver will mature on August 5, 2030. The Term Loans will amortize at 2.5% per year payable in quarterly installments beginning with the quarter ending December 31, 2026 through September 30, 2027 and increasing to 5.0% per year payable in quarterly installments until the maturity date.
3.25% Convertible Notes
On June 11, 2024, we issued $373.8 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.25% Convertible Notes. The 3.25% Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.25% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 2024. The 3.25% Convertible Notes mature on June 15, 2030, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. Prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding December 15, 2029, the 3.25% Convertible Notes will be convertible at the option of the holders only upon the occurrence of certain events and during certain periods. Thereafter, the 3.25% Convertible Notes will be convertible at the option of the holders at any time until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding their maturity date.
The 3.25% Convertible Notes have an initial conversion rate of 12.8398 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 3.25% Convertible Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $77.88 per share of our common stock, subject to adjustment if certain events occur. Upon conversion, we will settle the principal amount of the 3.25% Convertible Notes in cash, and any conversion premium in excess of the principal amount in cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at our election.
As of September 30, 2025, one of the conditions permitting the holders of the 3.25% Convertible Notes to convert was met. Our common stock traded above 130% of the $77.88 conversion price for at least 20 trading days during the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on September 30, 2025 (the last trading day of the calendar quarter). The holders of the 3.25% Convertible Notes have the right to convert through December 31, 2025, at which point the Company will re-evaluate whether the 3.25% Convertible Notes will continue to be convertible in the subsequent calendar quarter. In the event the holders of the 3.25% Convertible Notes elect to convert a portion or all of their 3.25% Convertible Notes, the principal amount is required to be settled in cash. As a result, the $373.8 million principal amount has been classified as a current liability as of September 30, 2025 in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Any conversion premium will be satisfied with cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election.
Upon the occurrence of a “fundamental change” as defined in the indenture governing the 3.25% Convertible Notes, holders may require us to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their 3.25% Convertible Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 3.25% Convertible Notes to be repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. If certain corporate events that constitute a “make-whole fundamental change” as set forth in the indenture governing the 3.25% Convertible Notes occur prior to the maturity date of the 3.25% Convertible Notes or if we deliver a notice of redemption, we will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its 3.25% Convertible Notes in connection with such event or notice of redemption.
We will not be able to redeem the 3.25% Convertible Notes prior to June 21, 2027. On or after June 21, 2027, we will be able to redeem for cash all or any portion of the 3.25% Convertible Notes, at our option, if the last reported sale price of Granite’s common stock is equal to or greater than 130% of the conversion price for a specified period of time at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 3.25% Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued but unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. The indenture governing the 3.25% Convertible Notes contains customary events of default. In the case of an event of default arising from certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, with respect to us or our significant subsidiaries, all outstanding 3.25% Convertible Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other event of default occurs and is continuing, then the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the 3.25% Convertible Notes then outstanding may declare the 3.25% Convertible Notes due and payable immediately.
2024 Capped Call Transactions
In June 2024, we entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions in connection with the offering of the 3.25% Convertible Notes (the “2024 capped call transactions”). The 2024 capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to our common stock upon any conversion of the 3.25% Convertible Notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted 3.25% Convertible Notes, as the case may be. If, however, the market price per share of our common stock, as measured under the terms of the 2024 capped call transactions, exceeds the cap price of $119.82 of the 2024 capped call transactions, there would nevertheless be dilution and/or there would not be an offset of such cash payments, in each case, to the extent that such market price exceeds the cap price of the 2024 capped call transactions.
3.75% Convertible Notes
On May 11, 2023, we issued $373.8 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.75% Convertible Notes. The 3.75% Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.75% per annum payable semiannually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on November 15, 2023 and mature on May 15, 2028, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. Prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding November 15, 2027, the 3.75% Convertible Notes will be convertible at the option of the holders only upon the occurrence of certain events and during certain periods. Thereafter, the 3.75% Convertible Notes will be convertible at the option of the holders at any time until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date.
The initial conversion rate applicable to the 3.75% Convertible Notes is 21.6807 shares of Granite common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 3.75% Convertible Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $46.12 per share of Granite common stock, subject to adjustment if certain events occur. Upon conversion, we will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of Granite common stock or a combination of cash and shares of Granite common stock, at our election. In addition, upon the occurrence of a “fundamental change” as defined in the indenture governing the 3.75% Convertible Notes, holders may require us to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their 3.75% Convertible Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 3.75% Convertible Notes to be repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. If certain corporate events that constitute a “make-whole fundamental change” as set forth in the indenture governing the 3.75% Convertible Notes occur prior to the maturity date of the 3.75% Convertible Notes or if we deliver a notice of redemption, we will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its 3.75% Convertible Notes in connection with such event or notice of redemption.
We will not be able to redeem the 3.75% Convertible Notes prior to May 20, 2026. On or after May 20, 2026, we have the option to redeem for cash all or any portion of the 3.75% Convertible Notes if the last reported sale price of our common stock is equal to or greater than 130% of the conversion price for a specified period of time at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 3.75% Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus any accrued but unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. The indenture governing the 3.75% Convertible Notes contains customary events of default. In the case of an event of default arising from certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, with respect to us or our significant subsidiaries, all outstanding 3.75% Convertible Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other event of default occurs and is continuing, then the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the 3.75% Convertible Notes then outstanding may declare the 3.75% Convertible Notes due and payable immediately.
2023 Capped Call Transactions
In May 2023, we entered into capped call transactions (the “2023 capped call transactions”) in connection with the offering of the 3.75% Convertible Notes. The 2023 capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution
to our common stock upon conversion of the 3.75% Convertible Notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted 3.75% Convertible Notes, as the case may be. If, however, the market price per share of our common stock, as measured under the terms of the 2023 capped call transactions, exceeds the cap price of $79.83 of the 2023 capped call transactions, there would nevertheless be dilution and/or there would not be an offset of such cash payments, in each case, to the extent that such market price exceeds the cap price of the 2023 capped call transactions.
Covenants and Events of Default
Our Credit Agreement requires us to comply with various affirmative, restrictive and financial covenants, including the financial covenants described below. Our failure to comply with these covenants would constitute an event of default under the Credit Agreement. Additionally, the 3.25% Convertible Notes and 3.75% Convertible Notes are governed by the terms and conditions of their respective indentures. Our failure to pay principal, interest or other amounts when due or within the relevant grace period on our 3.25% Convertible Notes, our 3.75% Convertible Notes or our Credit Agreement would constitute an event of default under the 3.25% Convertible Notes indenture, the 3.75% Convertible Notes indenture or the Credit Agreement. A default under our Credit Agreement could result in (i) us no longer being entitled to borrow under such facility; (ii) the termination of such facility; (iii) the requirement that any letters of credit under such facility be cash collateralized; (iv) the acceleration of amounts owed under the Credit Agreement; and/or (v) the foreclosure on any collateral securing the obligations under such facility. A default under the 3.25% Convertible Notes indenture or the 3.75% Convertible Notes indenture could result in acceleration of the maturity of the notes.
The financial covenants under the terms of our Credit Agreement require the maintenance of a minimum Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio and a maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio. As of September 30, 2025, we were in compliance with all covenants contained in the Credit Agreement. We are not aware of any non-compliance by any of our unconsolidated real estate ventures with the covenants contained in their debt agreements.
Debt Issuance Costs
During the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we recorded $1.0 million and $0.9 million, respectively, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 we recorded $2.9 million and $3.0 million, respectively, of amortization related to debt issuance costs. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 we capitalized $2.8 million in debt issuance costs associated with the Initial Term Loan.
