Centuri Announces Launch of Secondary Public Offering of Common Stock

Centuri Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: CTRI) (“Centuri” or the “Company”) today announced the commencement of an underwritten secondary public offering of 9,500,000 shares of Centuri’s common stock by Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. (“Southwest Gas”) as selling stockholder (the “Offering”). Southwest Gas also expects to grant the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,425,000 shares of Centuri’s common stock.

Subject to the expiration or early termination of the applicable waiting period relating to certain antitrust filings under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, Southwest Gas has also entered into an agreement to sell to Icahn Partners and Icahn Partners Master Fund LP, investment entities affiliated with Carl C. Icahn (the “Icahn Investors”), an aggregate of $22 million in shares of Centuri’s common stock in a concurrent private placement at a price per share equal to the Offering price per share. The concurrent private placement is also subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions, including the completion of the Offering, and if the closing of the concurrent private placement has not occurred by July 9, 2025, the concurrent private placement will terminate without the sale of any shares to the Icahn Investors. The sale of these shares, if effected, will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The closing of the Offering is not conditioned upon the closing of the concurrent private placement.

Centuri is not selling any shares of common stock in the proposed Offering or the concurrent private placement and will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares being offered by Southwest Gas.

J.P. Morgan and Wells Fargo Securities are acting as joint lead book-running managers for the proposed Offering. BofA Securities, KeyBanc Capital Markets, Mizuho Securities, Moelis & Company, TD Securities, and UBS Investment Bank are acting as book-running managers for the proposed Offering.

A registration statement on Form S-3 relating to the securities being sold in the proposed Offering has been filed with and declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and is available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. The proposed Offering will be made only by means of a prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus that forms a part of the registration statement, copies of which may be obtained, when available, by request from: J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, c/o Broadridge Financial Solutions, 1155 Long Island Avenue, Edgewood, NY 11717, by email at prospectus-eq_fi@jpmchase.com and postsalemanualrequests@broadridge.com or Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Attention: Wells Fargo Securities, 90 South 7th Street, 5th Floor, Minneapolis, MN 55402, at 800-645-3751 (option #5) or email a request to WFScustomerservice@wellsfargo.com.
