Michael Sena: Infrastructure Adjusted EBITDA for Q4 2025 increased to $28 million from $17.4 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in revenue and gross profit at DBMG's commercial structural steel fabrication and erection business, and Banker Steel, which had increased activity subsequent to the comparable period on certain large construction projects. These increases were partially offset by the decrease in revenue and gross profit at the industrial maintenance and repair business, which had increased activity in the prior year on certain large construction projects that were completed towards the end of 2024, and an increase in recurring SG&A expenses, primarily driven by an increase in compensation-related expenses.
Michael Sena: As of 31 December 2025, reported backlog was $1.7 billion and adjusted backlog, which takes into consideration awarded but not yet signed contracts, was $1.8 billion, compared to reported backlog of $1 billion and adjusted backlog of $1.1 billion at the end of 2024. DBMG ended the year with $87.7 million in principal amount of debt, which is a decrease of $57 million from the end of 2024, primarily driven by its refinancing and a decrease in the credit line. At Life Sciences, revenue decreased 24.4% to $3.1 million from $4.1 million in the prior year quarter.
