Granite Announces San Francisco International Airport Rehabilitation Project
WATSONVILLE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Granite (NYSE:GVA) has been awarded an approximately $26 million contract by the San Francisco International Airport (SFO) to upgrade Taxiway Z and a portion of Taxiway S at SFO in San Francisco, California. Project funding is to come from SFO and will be included in Granite's second-quarter CAP.
This project will rehabilitate the taxiways to ensure the continued safety and efficiency of aircraft operations. Taxiway Z serves as a primary corridor for aircraft movement between the terminals, airline maintenance, and cargo facilities.
"We are excited to be part of this critical infrastructure project at SFO," said Brent Fogg, Granite Vice President of Regional Operations. "Our collaboration with SFO on the Taxiway Z Rehabilitation Project underscores our commitment to delivering exceptional projects and advancing the safety and efficiency of airport operations."
Project scope includes the reconstruction of asphalt concrete pavement, replacement of airfield lighting with LED lighting and signage, a 12kV electrical duct bank upgrade, and the installation of updated pavement markings and drainage improvements. These enhancements are designed to improve the overall functionality and safety of the taxiways, ensuring that SFO remains a leader in aviation infrastructure.
This project is part of SFO's Capital Improvement Program (CIP), a multi-billion-dollar initiative focused on modernizing and improving the airport's infrastructure, including runways, taxiways, and terminals. The CIP includes the "Delivering Exceptional Projects" initiative, which aligns with Granite's key objectives of Trust, Transparency, Early Contractor Collaboration, and Alternate Delivery. This project also supports Granite's long-term goals to partner with SFO on their other Alternate Procurement Projects.
Granite's nearby Santa Clara hot plant will be providing 24,105 tons of hot mix asphalt (HMA) for the project, ensuring high-quality materials and efficient delivery.
Construction is expected to begin in August 2025 and be completed in November 2025.

At Booth #6C-03, DuPont will showcase its extensive portfolio of advanced interconnect solutions, which encompass fine line, signal integrity, power and thermal management. "Our participation at JPCA 2025 underscores our commitment to innovation within the electronics industry," said Yuan Yuan Zhou, Global Business Director, Advanced Circuit & Packaging, Interconnect Solutions. "For over 50 years, we have collaborated with industry leaders to power remarkable advancements in electronics, with a strategic focus on integrate circuit (IC) substrate, advanced printed circuit boards (PCB), and advanced packaging. Our deep customer intimacy, along with the depth and breadth of our technical capabilities, continues to empower advanced computing and connectivity." As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to transform industries, the demand for high-performance IC substrates is surging, with Japan at the forefront of providing innovative materials and processes. These advanced substrates are critical for bridging AI chips and printed circuit boards, enabling quicker data processing and improved thermal management. The global IC substrate market is poised to experience notable growth, driven by the expanding AI ecosystem and the increasing demand for advanced solutions. DuPont's comprehensive solutions empower IC substrate manufacturers to expedite product development and enhance production efficiency. Key offerings include DuPont™ Circuposit™ desmear and electroless copper for mSAP and SAP processes, and DuPont™ Copper Gleam™ electrolytic copper for conformal through-hole plating, which enhances core layer plating technologies. Moreover, DuPont™ Microfill™ acid copper optimizes blind via filling for build-up layers, thereby boosting mSAP and SAP process efficiency. Additionally, DuPont™ Riston® dry film photoresist is essential for a variety of applications, including core and build-up layers, final finishes, and copper pillars. Visitors to DuPont's booth are invited to connect with our experts and discover integrated solutions designed to drive success in the rapidly evolving electronics industry, including our complete range of offerings for PCBs.

Best's Market Segment Report: AM Best Maintains Stable Outlook on South Korea's Non-Life Insurance Market
HONG KONG, June 04, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--AM Best has maintained its stable outlook on South Korea's non-life insurance segment, noting a continued refinement of the country's domestic solvency standards that have helped strengthen insurers' capital management. Additional factors include moderate growth in the long-term and general insurance segments, and efforts to improve profitability in the former as well as in investment strategies. However, AM Best notes an offsetting factor of slow growth prospects and weakened underwriting profitability in South Korea's auto insurance segment. According to the Best's Market Segment Report, "Market Segment Outlook: South Korea Non-Life Insurance," the country's non-life insurance industry is facing capital pressure with increasing insurance liabilities, following the Financial Supervisory Service's (FSS) push for more realistic actuarial assumptions and a phased plan to cut discount rates until 2027, which are intended to improve credibility and comparability of insurers' financials. "These ongoing regulatory changes, coupled with a decreasing trend in domestic interest rates, are expected to pose a considerable burden on insurers' solvency, especially those with relatively weaker capital positions," said Seokjae Lee, senior financial analyst, AM Best. "However, AM Best expects these changes will promote economic value-based capital management for insurers to maintain sound capital adequacy across the industry." Over the next 12 months, AM Best expects the industry to experience moderate growth with heightened emphasis on profitability management of long-term insurance following a few years of intensified market competition and with a focus on mitigating increasing solvency pressures. According to the report, the auto insurance segment has experienced a slowdown in its premium growth in recent years, owing to sluggish vehicle registrations and cumulative premium rate cuts to support the consumer economy. A notable trend is a high and increasing market concentration among large insurers. "With the fast-growing online auto insurance market, large insurers are more likely to maintain premium growth as they benefit from factors such as economies of scale, strong marketing capability and digital infrastructure," said Chanyoung Lee, director, AM Best.
