CFO Actions & 90-Day Plan
Immediate priorities, 30-day actions and strategic initiatives — Texas compliance
✨ Key Highlights — January 2026
▲
Revenue $44K ahead of budget (+7.6%) driven by Westchase Medical acceleration — improved billing cadence under new PM increased January draws
▲
Gross margin 21.2% vs 20.0% budget — better subcontractor pricing on Westchase MEP and reduced material waste on two jobs in January
⚠
Net underbillings $193,400 — billing team to accelerate invoicing on Galleria HQ (0% billed, $176,000 earned to date). First invoice due Feb 28.
🚨 What This Report Caught That You’d Have Missed
(1) Galleria HQ has $176,000 in earned revenue with $0 billed — that’s cash sitting on the table. Without this report, you wouldn’t know until the bank account got tight. (2) Steel prices up 4.2% since Q4 quote — if you don’t lock alternate suppliers now, your next 3 projects inherit that margin hit. (3) Labor at 109.7% of budget across the portfolio — not one bad week, but a pattern that costs $42,000+ annually if uncorrected.
Accounting Basis: Revenue recognized on Percentage-of-Completion method (ASC 606) — based on costs incurred as a proportion of total estimated costs. WIP Schedule reconciled monthly: underbillings (costs in excess of billings) are recorded as current assets; overbillings (billings in excess of costs) as current liabilities. Retainage (10% standard per contract) excluded from current AR and AP; shown in separate schedules. Texas Franchise Tax accrued monthly at $2,400 (annual no-tax-due threshold assessment; full filing due May). Prevailing wage requirements apply to any City of Houston public work contracts. OSHA 300 log maintained — 0 recordable incidents YTD.

📌 January Commentary: Revenue outperformed by $44K primarily due to Westchase Medical reaching a major milestone (HVAC rough-in completion) triggering a $30K billing uplift. Cash closing at $435,500 — best level since Q3 2025 — driven by strong collections. Key watch item: Galleria Corporate HQ has $0 billed against $176K earned — first invoice must be issued by February 28. Downtown Hotel labor costs running over budget — mitigation plan in place (see P5). Houston construction labor market tightening in Q1 2026.

🏗 Houston Market Note: Commercial construction activity remains strong across the Houston MSA in Q1 2026. The Texas Medical Center expansion and Post Oak corridor continue to drive medical and office fit-out demand. Labor availability for skilled trades tightening — recommend confirming subcontractor commitments for H2 pipeline projects. No material supply chain disruptions currently impacting active jobs.

📋 Pipeline Commentary: Memorial Drive Dental Group (80% probability, Mar award) — strong referral from Westchase Medical client — confirm bonding and insurance requirements. Katy Freeway Phase 2 (65%, Feb) — repeat client, good margin history. Sugar Land Campus ($2.1M) would require bonding capacity review — consult surety broker before bid submission (see P12 strategic item). Dallas/Fort Worth expansion: 2 active DFW bids under consideration — shared PM presence may be warranted if both awarded.
💵 Backlog Coverage: $5.44M backlog at ~22% blended margin = ~$1.2M projected gross profit from existing jobs. Energy Corridor Retail wraps in Feb 2026 — capacity opens for new work. Galleria HQ ($2.0M remaining, Dec 2026) provides strong H2 2026 revenue base. Target: maintain $5M+ backlog throughout 2026 with pipeline wins.
Total backlog $5,437,600 across 6 active jobs. Weighted pipeline $2,539,000 from 4 outstanding bids. Galleria HQ provides $2.0M H2 2026 revenue base. DFW expansion under consideration.Page 10 of 12

📊 Strategic (90 Days)
Equipment Fleet Utilization Review
3 pieces of equipment idle 60+ days (excavator, scissor lift, compactor). Review lease vs. sell options. Equipment cost running over budget on Hotel job in part due to idle assets generating no revenue. Model: sell underutilized equipment, apply proceeds to reduce equipment loan balance.
Bonding Capacity Increase
Current single contract bond limit $10M. Galleria HQ ($2.2M) + Sugar Land Campus bid ($2.1M) = $4.3M concurrent. With Westchase ($2.3M) still active, approaching limit. Meet with surety broker before Sugar Land bid submission (May 2026). Target: increase to $15M single / $25M aggregate.
DFW Office Assessment
2 active DFW bids (Dallas/Fort Worth area). If both awarded, managing from Houston adds travel cost and PM oversight risk. CFO to model shared DFW PM presence cost vs. revenue benefit. Decision threshold: award 2+ DFW jobs totalling $3M+ triggers office/co-working space assessment.
Workers Comp Audit Preparation
Workers’ Compensation policy year ends April 2026. Begin premium audit preparation now: gather payroll by class code, sub certificates, and field hours logs. Houston construction market audit commonly flags misclassified workers — ensure all 30 field staff correctly classified. OSHA 300 log: 0 incidents YTD — excellent position.
