Announces Strategic Acquisition of Australian Component Supplier</strong></font></p><p style="text-align: center;"><strong></strong></p><p>
   <p align="justify">ACHESON, Alberta, June  09, 2021  (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- North American Construction Group Ltd. (&#8220;NACG&#8221; or &#8220;the Company&#8221;) (TSX:NOA.TO/NYSE:NOA) today announced it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire DGI Trading Pty Limited (&#8220;DGI&#8221;) for an estimated purchase price of $23.5 million.<br ></p>    <p align="justify">DGI, based in Kempsey, New South Wales, Australia, supplies production-critical components to the mining industry through business relationships and a complex logistical network. With partners in over ten key countries, DGI maintains a network of suppliers and partner facilities which enable the connectivity to be both agile and economical. DGI staff are well trained across all industry-standard equipment and possess unparalleled knowledge in this unique space.</p>    <p align="justify">The acquisition is another strategic step in the Company&#8217;s efforts to both vertically integrate its capital maintenance program as well as to diversify its service offerings. The purchase price is based on a closing price equal to the net tangible assets of DGI and subsequent payments over a four-year period based on the earnings of the business. The aggregate estimated purchase price represents an EBITDA multiple of 3.0x on a next twelve-month basis based on our belief that current worldwide demand for mining components has recovered to, and will remain stable at or potentially exceed, pre-COVID 19 levels for the next twelve months. The transaction is expected to close on July 1, 2021 and will be funded through existing debt facilities.</p>    <p align="justify">Joe Lambert, President &amp; Chief Executive Officer, stated: &#8220;NACG has worked with David and his team at DGI for many years and have great respect for their skills and the integrity with which they conduct business. We welcome the DGI team into our NACG family and are very excited to work together to grow and expand the services provided both externally and internally.&#8221;</p>    <p align="justify">David Griffin, Managing Director, DGI, stated: &#8220;DGI has developed a strong relationship with NACG over many years and are excited about now becoming part of their business. This is a major opportunity for us to work together to expand on what both businesses do best, providing competitive solutions to the global mining market. We look forward to entering the next chapter of our growth aligned with NACG and welcoming their team into our organisation.&#8221;</p>    <p align="justify"><strong>Key benefits of the transaction for the Company include:</strong></p>    <ul type="disc"><li style="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:6pt; text-align:justify;">Low risk accretive purchase of a well-known and well-run key supplier</li><li style="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:6pt; text-align:justify;">Increases vertical integration of component supply process (75% of capital spending)</li><li style="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:6pt; text-align:justify;">Provides exposure to new jurisdictions through DGI&#8217;s network and experience<br ></li></ul>    <p align="justify">DGI will operate as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and will retain its brand identity and personnel.

The non-GAAP financial measures we present include &#8220;EBITDA&#8221;. A non-GAAP financial measure is defined by relevant regulatory authorities as a numerical measure of an issuer's historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flow that is not specified, defined or determined under the issuer&#8217;s GAAP and that is not presented in an issuer&#8217;s financial statements. These non-GAAP measures do not have any standardized meaning and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. </em></p>    <p align="justify"><em>The information provided in this release contains forward-looking statements.
