Noah Levitz's questions to Sterling Infrastructure Inc (STRL) leadership • Q1 2025
Question
Noah Levitz asked for an outlook on a potential successor to the IIJA infrastructure bill and inquired about the scale of opportunities in biopharma and other onshoring projects, as well as any potential capacity constraints.
Answer
CEO Joseph Cutillo expressed optimism for a future infrastructure bill, noting that bipartisan activity in Washington D.C. is more advanced than for previous bills. On onshoring, he stated that while they are seeing individual projects in pharma, auto, and food, a large 'wave' of projects has not yet materialized, partly due to lengthy permitting processes. He affirmed that Sterling has the capacity to handle significant growth and would expand by 25-30% if the right projects emerged.
