Outlook, commentary, risks, and unusual items

- Certain material domestic subsidiaries guaranteed Arcosa’s obligations under the new credit agreement.
- The updated investor presentation was furnished under Regulation FD, but its substantive contents are not included in the provided filing text; therefore, the filing text does not provide clear guidance or operating outlook information.
- The new agreement increases liquidity flexibility but exposes Arcosa to variable-rate interest expense and leverage-based pricing changes.
Investor verification items
