Reports Q3 revenue $1.82B, consensus $1.71B. "We delivered our eighth consecutive quarter of double-digit year-over-year net sales growth, with third quarter net sales exceeding our expectations due to healthy end-market demand, robust performance across our growth initiatives and continued price realization. This is an impressive accomplishment considering the 39% net sales growth we achieved in the same period last year. Municipal repair and replacement activity remains strong, and we continue to see an acceleration of non-residential construction activity."
