### CAUTIONARY STATEMENT CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

***Unless the context otherwise indicates, all references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “Orion,” “the Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us” are to Orion Group Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries as a whole.***

Certain information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including but not limited to Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”), may constitute forward-looking statements as such term is defined within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

All statements other than statements of historical facts, including those that express a belief, expectation, or intention are forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements may include projections and estimates concerning the timing and success of specific projects and our future production, our pipeline of opportunities, conversion of backlog, revenues, income and capital spending. Our forward-looking statements are generally accompanied by words such as “estimate,” “project,” “predict,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “potential,” “plan,” “goal” or other words that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes.

We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and assumptions about future events. While our management considers these expectations and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks, contingencies and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control, including unforeseen productivity delays and other difficulties encountered in project execution, challenges incurred by virtue of our position as a substantial subcontractor that reports to a significantly larger project contractor, levels of government funding or other governmental budgetary constraints, contract modifications and changes, including change orders and contract cancellation at the discretion of the customer, and the general economic impact of tariffs and trade wars. These and other important factors, including those described under “Risk Factors” in Part 1, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 may cause our actual results, performance- or achievements to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q speak only as of the date of this report; we disclaim any obligation to update these statements unless required by securities law, and we caution you not to rely on them unduly.

MD&A provides a narrative analysis explaining the reasons for material changes in the Company’s (i) financial condition since the most recent fiscal year-end, and (ii) results of operations during the current fiscal year-to-date period and current fiscal quarter as compared to the corresponding periods of the preceding fiscal year. In order to better understand such changes, this MD&A should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2024 Form 10-K, Part II, Item 7 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our 2024 Form 10-K and with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

### Overview

Orion Group Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (hereafter collectively referred to as the “Company”), is a leading specialty construction company serving the infrastructure, industrial, and building sectors, providing services both on and off the water in the continental United States, Alaska, Hawaii, Canada and the Caribbean Basin through our marine segment and our concrete segment. Our marine segment provides construction and dredging services, including marine transportation facility construction, marine pipeline construction, marine environmental structures construction, dredging of waterways, channels and ports, environmental dredging, design, and specialty services related to marine construction, fabrication, and dredging. Our concrete segment provides turnkey concrete construction services, including concrete surface place and finish, site preparation, layout, forming, and rebar placement for large commercial, structural and other associated business areas. We are headquartered in Houston, Texas with regional offices throughout our operating areas.

Our contracts are obtained primarily through competitive bidding in response to “requests for proposals” by federal, state and local agencies and through negotiation and competitive bidding with private parties and general contractors. Our bidding activity and strategies are affected by factors such as our backlog, current utilization of equipment and other resources, job location, our ability to obtain necessary surety bonds and competitive considerations. The timing and location of awarded contracts may result in unpredictable fluctuations in the results of our operations.

Most of our revenue is derived from fixed-price contracts. We record revenue on construction contracts over time, measured by the percentage of actual contract costs incurred to date to total estimated costs for each contract. There are a number of factors that can create variability in contract performance and therefore impact the results of our operations. The most significant of these include the following:

- completeness and accuracy of the original bid;
- increases in commodity prices such as concrete, steel and fuel;
- customer delays, work stoppages, and other costs due to weather and environmental restrictions;
- subcontractor performance;
- unforeseen site conditions;
- availability and skill level of workers; and
- a change in availability and proximity of equipment and materials.

All of these factors can have a negative impact on our contract performance, which can adversely affect the timing of revenue recognition and ultimate contract profitability. We plan our operations and bidding activity with these factors in mind and they generally have not had a material adverse impact on the results of our operations in the past.

### Consolidated Results of Operations

### Backlog Information

Our contract backlog represents our estimate of the revenues we expect to realize under the portion of contracts remaining to be performed. Given the typical duration of our contracts, which is generally less than a year, our backlog at any point in time usually represents only a portion of the revenue that we expect to realize during a twelve-month period. We have not been adversely affected by contract cancellations or modifications in the past, however we may be in the future, especially in periods of economic uncertainty.

Backlog as of the periods ended below are as follows (in millions):

| ​ ​ | ​ ​ | ​ ​ March 31, 2025 | ​ | ​ ​ December 31, 2024 | ​ | ​ ​ September 30, 2024 | ​ | ​ ​ June 30, 2024 | ​ | ​ ​ March 31, 2024 |
| --- | --- | ---: | --- | ---: | --- | ---: | --- | ---: | --- | ---: |
| Marine segment | ​ | $607.4 | ​ | $582.8 | ​ | $537.0 | ​ | $567.1 | ​ | $569.9 |
| Concrete segment | ​ | 232.3 | ​ | 146.3 | ​ | 153.5 | ​ | 191.3 | ​ | 186.7 |
| Consolidated | ​ | $839.7 | ​ | $729.1 | ​ | $690.5 | ​ | $758.4 | ​ | $756.6 |

We are optimistic in our end-markets and in the opportunities that are emerging across our various marketplaces as evidenced by the $1.3 billion of quoted bids outstanding at quarter end, of which over $51 million were awarded but not fully contracted as of or awarded subsequent to March 31, 2025.

These estimates are subject to fluctuations based upon the scope of services to be provided, as well as factors affecting the time required to complete the project. Backlog is not necessarily indicative of future results. In addition to our backlog under contract, we also have a substantial number of projects in negotiation or pending award at any given time. Delays in decisions on pending awards also have a negative impact on the timing and amount by which we are able to increase backlog.

***Contract Revenues.*** Contract revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2025 of $188.7 million increased $28.0 million or 17.4% as compared to $160.7 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to an increase in revenue from large marine construction contracts and new concrete projects.

***Gross Profit.*** Gross profit was $23.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $15.5 million in the prior year period, an increase of $7.5 million, or 48.1%. Gross profit in the quarter was 12.2% of total contract revenues as compared to 9.7% in the prior year period. The increases in gross profit dollars and margin were primarily driven by an improvement in indirect expenses in the marine segment as a result of a higher volume of work, partially offset by lower margins in the concrete segment which were primarily driven by normal seasonally lower productivity.

***Selling, General and Administrative Expense.*** Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $22.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $19.0 million in the prior year period, an increase of $3.5 million or 18.7%. As a percentage of total contract revenues, SG&A expenses increased to 12.0% from 11.8%. The increases in SG&A dollars and percentage reflect an increase in compensation expense and operating lease expense.

***Gain on Disposal of Assets, net.*** During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 we realized $0.4 million and $0.3 million, respectively, of net gains on disposal of assets.

***Other Income, net of Expense.*** Other expense primarily reflects interest on our borrowings, partially offset by interest income and non-operating gains or losses.

***Income Tax Expense (Benefit).*** We recorded tax expense of $0.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to tax benefit of $0.4 million in the prior year period. We expect near break-even operations for the full year ended December 31, 2025, such that a small change in the year-to-date operations could result in a large change to the estimated annual effective tax rate. Therefore, our effective tax rate for the period ending March 31, 2025, is based off actual year-to-date operations.

### Segment Results

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, statements of operations data by segment, segment revenues as a percentage of consolidated revenues and segment operating income (loss) as a percentage of segment revenues.

### Marine Segment

Revenues for our marine segment for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were $127.2 million compared to $106.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of $20.9 million, or 19.6%. The increase was primarily due to an increase in revenue from large marine construction contracts.

Operating income for our marine segment for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $4.8 million, compared to operating loss of $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of $9.7 million. The increase in operating income was primarily related to an improvement in indirect expenses and more disciplined execution and bidding standards to exclude lower margin contracts.

### Concrete Segment

Revenues for our concrete segment for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were $61.5 million compared to $54.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of $7.2 million, or 13.1%. This increase was primarily due to new projects.

Operating loss for our concrete segment for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $3.9 million, compared to operating income of $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, a decrease of $5.6 million. This decrease was primarily driven by lower margins which were primarily driven by normal seasonally lower productivity.

### Liquidity and Capital Resources

Changes in working capital are normal within our business given the varying mix in size, scope, seasonality and timing of delivery of our projects. At March 31, 2025, our working capital was $73.4 million, as compared to $78.2 million at December 31, 2024. As of March 31, 2025, we had unrestricted cash on hand of $13.0 million. Our borrowing availability under our revolving portion of our Credit Agreement at March 31, 2025 was approximately $40.7 million.

Our primary liquidity needs are to finance our working capital and fund capital expenditures. Historically, our sources of liquidity have been cash provided by our operating activities, sale of underutilized assets, and borrowings under our credit facilities. The assessment of our liquidity requires us to make estimates of future activity and judgments about whether we are compliant with financial covenant calculations under our debt and other agreements and have adequate liquidity to operate. Significant assumptions used in our forecasted model of liquidity include forecasted sales, costs, and capital expenditures, as well as expected timing and proceeds of planned real estate transactions. As of March 31, 2025, management believes the Company will have adequate liquidity for its operations for at least the next 12 months.

### Cash Flow

The following table provides information regarding our cash flows and our capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024:

| ​ ​ ​ ​ | ​ ​ ​ | ​ ​ Three months ended March 31, 2025 | ​ | ​ ​ 2024 |
| --- | --- | ---: | --- | ---: |
| Net loss | ​ | $(1,414) | ​ | $(6,057) |
| Adjustments to remove non-cash and non-operating items | ​ | ​ 9,256 | ​ | ​ 9,006 |
| Cash flow from net income after adjusting for non-cash and non-operating items | ​ | ​ 7,842 | ​ | ​ 2,949 |
| Change in operating assets and liabilities (working capital) | ​ | ​ (11,285) | ​ | ​ (25,774) |
| Cash flows used in operating activities | ​ | $(3,443) | ​ | $(22,825) |
| Cash flows used in investing activities | ​ | $(8,692) | ​ | $(1,573) |
| Cash flows used in financing activities | ​ | $(3,225) | ​ | $(1,902) |
| ​ | ​ | ​ ​ | ​ | ​ ​ |
| Capital expenditures (included in investing activities above) | ​ | $(9,033) | ​ | $(1,853) |

***Operating Activities.*** During the three months ended March 31, 2025 we used approximately $3.4 million of cash in our operating activities. The net cash outflow was comprised of $11.3 million of outflows related to changes in net working capital, partially offset by $7.9 million of cash inflows from net income, after adjusting for non-cash items. The changes in net working capital, which are reflected as changes in operating assets and liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, were primarily driven by a $27.7 million cash outflow related to a decrease in our net position of accounts receivable and accounts payable plus accrued liabilities during the period and a $1.2 million decrease in operating lease liabilities, partially offset by $16.2 million of cash inflows pursuant to the relative timing and significance of project progression and billings during the period, a $1.3 million inflow related to a decrease in prepaid expenses and other, and $0.1 million of other inflows.

***Investing Activities.*** During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we used approximately $8.7 million of cash in our investing activities. Capital asset additions and betterments to our fleet were $9.0 million and $1.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Proceeds from the sale of property and equipment were $0.3 million in both the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024.

***Financing Activities.*** During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we used approximately $3.2 million of cash in our financing activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we had borrowings and repayments of $3.0 million on the White Oak revolving credit line, payments on finance lease liabilities of $2.5 million, payments made on failed sale-leaseback arrangements of $0.7 million, loan costs of $0.3 million and repayments of $0.1 million on other debt, partially offset by inflows of $0.3 million from proceeds from issuance of common stock under the employee stock purchase plan and $0.1 million from proceeds from stock option exercises.

### Sources of Capital

On May 15, 2023, we entered into a new three-year $103.0 million Credit Agreement with White Oak which includes a $65.0 million asset based revolving credit line and a $38.0 million fixed asset term loan. Please see “Note 9 – Debt” in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for a more detailed description of the Credit Facility.

We were in compliance with all financial covenants under the amended agreement as of March 31, 2025.

### Bonding Capacity

We are often required to provide various types of surety bonds that provide additional security to our customers for our performance under certain government and private sector contracts. Our ability to obtain surety bonds depends on our capitalization, working capital, past performance and external factors, including the capacity of the overall surety market. At March 31, 2025, the capacity under our current bonding arrangement was at least $1.1 billion, with approximately $535 million of projects being bonded. While we believe that our current bonding capacity is sufficient to satisfy current demand for our services, any new major project opportunities may require us to seek additional bonding capacity in the future. We believe our balance sheet and working capital position will allow us to access additional bonding capacity as needed in the future.

### Effect of Inflation

We are subject to the effects of inflation through increases in the cost of raw materials, and other items such as fuel, concrete and steel. Due to the relative short-term duration of our projects, we are generally able to include anticipated cost increases in the pricing of our bids.

## Market risk

As filed, 1,332 characters.

In the normal course of business, our results of operations are subject to risks related to fluctuations in commodity prices and fluctuations in interest rates. Historically, our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations has not been material and has been limited to temporary field accounts located in foreign countries where we perform work. Foreign currency fluctuations were immaterial in this reporting period.

#### Commodity price risk

We are subject to fluctuations in commodity prices for concrete, steel products and fuel. Although we routinely attempt to secure firm quotes from our suppliers, we generally do not hedge against increases in prices for commodity products. Commodity price risks may have an impact on our results of operations due to the fixed-price nature of many of our contracts, although the short-term duration of our projects may allow us to include cost increases to the pricing of our bids.

#### Interest rate risk

At March 31, 2025, we had $23.0 million in outstanding borrowings under our Credit Agreement, with a weighted average ending interest rate of 10.94%. Based on the amounts outstanding under our Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2025, a 100 basis-point increase in SOFR (or an equivalent successor rate) would increase the Company’s annual interest expense by approximately $0.2 million.

## Controls and procedures

As filed, 1,163 characters.

### Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required, the Company’s management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2025.

### Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the quarter ended March 31, 2025, we implemented new reporting systems and made changes to related internal controls. There have been no other changes to our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

## Risk factors
