Bird Construction ( (TSE:BDT) ) has provided an update.

Bird Construction reported flat 2025 annual revenue of $3.40 billion versus 2024 but a sharp decline in net income to $47.4 million, largely due to a $62.2 million impairment tied to a single customer, even as adjusted EBITDA improved to $222.1 million and margins continued to strengthen. Fourth-quarter revenue slipped to $877.0 million and the company posted a net loss of $14.0 million, yet Bird highlighted record combined backlog and pending backlog of about $11 billion, underpinned by renewed master service agreements, collaborative contracts and higher-margin work that management says provide strong visibility into earnings growth.

The company completed its acquisition of Fraser River Pile & Dredge during the quarter, adding marine construction and land foundation capabilities that broaden its service offering and support participation in upcoming nation-building and infrastructure projects. Despite timing-related project delays that weighed on near-term revenue, Bird enters 2026 with record liquidity, a strong balance sheet and a risk-balanced backlog that it believes positions the firm to capitalize on Canada’s long-duration capital investment cycle in sectors such as LNG, nuclear and infrastructure renewal.

The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:BDT) stock is a Buy with a C$36.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Bird Construction stock, see the TSE:BDT Stock Forecast page.
