THORNTON, Colo., May 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MYR Group Inc. (“MYR” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: MYRG), a holding company of leading specialty contractors serving the electric utility infrastructure, commercial and industrial construction markets in the United States and Canada announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire all issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Valley Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Valley”), including Valley Electric Company, Inc.

I rate MYR Group Hold/Avoid as its ~41x forward P/E fully prices in AI data center and grid-electrification super-cycles, leaving minimal margin of safety. MYRG's shift to a 70% MSA-led T&D portfolio and C&I prefabrication builds recurring revenue and margin arbitrage, supporting premium valuation but demanding flawless execution. A fortress balance sheet with $500M+ liquidity and zero net debt positions MYRG for accretive M&A, yet organic growth (~12%) alone cannot justify current multiples.
