MYR Group's Backlog Hits Record in Q2: Can the Growth Trend Continue?

MYR Group achieved a record backlog of $3.16 billion in Q2 2026, up 19.6% year-over-year, driven by strong demand in transmission/distribution and commercial/industrial segments. The company's recent acquisitions of Valley Electric and Comet Electric are expected to expand capabilities and geographic reach. Strong end-market fundamentals in power infrastructure support continued growth, though project execution and cost pressures remain risks.
