The filing confirms a transaction the market already knew was coming. Granite had disclosed in May 2026 that it would redeem the $273.7 million of 3.75% convertible notes and expected holders to convert substantially all of them, with settlement primarily in cash and any excess conversion value paid in shares.
| Item | Actual settlement |
|---|---|
| 2028 convertible notes converted | $273.7M principal (Item 3.02) |
| Cash paid to settle conversions | Approximately $715M, including fractional shares (Item 8.01) |
| Common shares issued | 662,383 shares (Item 3.02) |
| Capped-call unwind proceeds | Approximately $148M (Item 8.01) |
The economic result is largely as expected, not a fresh earnings surprise. Granite paid approximately $715 million in cash and issued 662,383 shares to retire the notes, while receiving roughly $148 million from terminating the related capped calls. The filing does not disclose the remaining funding mix, so the net balance-sheet effect cannot be fully reconstructed from this document alone.
The main change is structural: the 3.75% convertible debt is gone, but dilution was not eliminated. The company used cash to settle most of the conversion value and still issued shares for the residual obligation. That removes the 2028 maturity and the associated convertible overhang, but the settlement itself was the previously disclosed outcome rather than an incremental positive surprise.
Net read: confirmation, not a beat or miss. The filing adds final settlement figures and confirms completion of the redemption process; it does not change the direction of the transaction that was already communicated in May and August.
