Cardinal Infrastructure Group, Inc., Announces Closing of Allied Paving Contractors Acquisition

PR Newswire

RALEIGH, N.C., Oct. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Cardinal Infrastructure Group, Inc., (NASDAQ: CDNL) (“Cardinal” or “the Company”) announced today the closing of its acquisition of Allied Paving Contractors. The acquisition expands Cardinal’s self-performing capabilities in the Atlanta market. Allied generated approximately $100 million in revenue on a standalone basis. A portion of that volume will be performed on Cardinal projects and therefore reflected in margin rather than consolidated revenue.

“We’re excited to add Allied’s experienced paving crews to our solutions in Northern Georgia,” said Benji Wood, Chief Operating Officer at Cardinal. “These enhanced capabilities allow us to sequence paving work directly behind our grading and site development teams, shorten project timelines and expand our existing self-perform capabilities to this market. Allied is one of the best in the business and we’re thrilled to bring their customer value proposition to our clients in the Atlanta market.”

John McLean, CEO of Allied, will join the Cardinal leadership team in managing paving operations across Georgia. This acquisition aligns with Cardinal’s strategy of targeting founder-led companies.
