Investors Alert: Class Action Lawsuit Filed Against Primoris Services Corporation for Alleged Misconduct

Levi & Korsinsky, LLP is alerting investors regarding a significant development involving Primoris Services Corporation (NYSE: PRIM). A class action lawsuit has been initiated on behalf of shareholders who acquired stock between August 5, 2025, and June 22, 2026. Investors are reminded of the crucial deadline of September 21, 2026, for those wishing to assume the role of lead plaintiff.

The focus of this lawsuit is on alleged failures related to estimating project costs, managing expenses, and overseeing projects within Primoris’s renewable energy segment. As a result of these claims, it is reported that Primoris experienced a substantial decline in its stock value, dropping approximately 21.6% or $23.39 per share after revealing critical financial difficulties.

The internal review revealed alarming issues within six renewable energy projects that were under fixed-price contracts. In these situations, accurate estimates of project costs and vigilant expense management are critical for maintaining profitability. However, it is alleged that Primoris misrepresented its capabilities, claiming robust bidding processes and well-established estimating methods, while in reality, significant cost overruns and delays were accumulating across multiple projects.

The lawsuit outlines how Primoris applied a cost-to-cost approach for recognizing its revenue over time, making the accuracy of cost-to-complete forecasts essential for reporting reliable revenue and profit figures. Plaintiffs argue that the company's shortcomings in these areas led to understated cost expectations and overstated profitability.

Financial Impact and Key Numbers

Among the revelations of the complaint, the following financial adjustments have been noted:

• - The adjusted earnings per share (EPS) guidance for 2026 was revised significantly downward from a forecast of $5.80–$6.00 to a new estimate of $2.05–$2.60.
• - Similarly, the adjusted EBITDA guidance was decreased from an anticipated range of $560 million–$580 million to a much lower forecast of $275 million–$325 million.
• - Primoris is now projecting approximately $2.1 billion in revenue from its renewable energy projects in 2026.

Furthermore, the company cited various challenges that negatively impacted these projects, including difficult soil conditions, adverse weather outcomes, late project initiation, and execution problems. These factors collectively heightened the pressure on profit margins and called into question the company's operational integrity.

Importance of Accurate Cost-to-Complete Forecasting

The lawsuit underscores the critical necessity for companies like Primoris to continually reassess estimated project costs and recognize significant changes promptly. Delays in acknowledging cost overruns and margin declines effectively mislead stakeholders regarding the financial health and operational capabilities of the company. A spokesperson for the firm stated, "This situation raises serious concerns about whether investors received truthful and accurate information regarding the cost management of Primoris' renewable portfolio."

Joseph E. Levi, Esq. emphasizes that shareholders deserve clarity and transparency, especially when there are significant shifts in financial guidance linked to alleged forecasting failures.
