IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING AND VOTING

Why am I receiving these materials?

The Board, on behalf of the Company, is providing these proxy materials to you in connection with the Annual Meeting. Stockholders are invited to attend the Annual Meeting and are requested to vote on the proposals described in this Proxy Statement. This Proxy Statement, along with the Notice, summarizes the purposes of the Annual Meeting and certain information that will assist you in determining how to vote at the Annual Meeting.

What is a proxy?

A proxy is your legal designation of another person, called a proxy holder, to vote the shares that you own. If you designate someone as your proxy holder in a written document, that document is called a proxy. We have designated Ned N. Fleming, III, our Executive Chairman, Fred J. (Jule) Smith, III, our President and Chief Executive Officer, and Gregory A. Hoffman, our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, to act as proxy holders at the Annual Meeting as to all shares for which proxy cards are returned or voting instructions are provided by internet or telephonic voting.

What is a proxy statement?

A proxy statement is a document that SEC regulations require us to give you when we ask you to sign a proxy card designating the proxy holders described above to vote on your behalf.

Who is soliciting my proxy?

This proxy solicitation is being made on behalf of the Company by its Board and management. The cost of this solicitation, including the cost of distributing the proxy materials, will be borne by the Company. Officers and employees of the Company may solicit proxies, either through personal contact or by mail, telephone or other electronic means. These officers and employees will not receive additional compensation for soliciting proxies. Brokerage houses, nominees, fiduciaries, and other custodians will be requested to forward soliciting materials to beneficial owners and will be reimbursed by the Company for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in sending proxy materials to beneficial owners.

What is included in these materials?

These proxy materials include:

•the Proxy Statement for our Annual Meeting;

•a proxy card with a prepaid return envelope; and

•our 2025 Annual Report, which includes our audited consolidated financial statements.

This Proxy Statement and form of proxy are being mailed or made available to our stockholders on or about January 27, 2026.

What proposals will be voted on at the Annual Meeting?

The following two proposals are scheduled to be voted on at the Annual Meeting:

•Proposal 1: Election of two Class II directors to serve for a three-year term expiring at the 2029 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

•Proposal 2: Ratification of the appointment of RSM US LLP (“RSM”) as the Company’s independent registered public accountant for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026.

Table of Contents

Who may vote at the Annual Meeting?

The Board has fixed January 23, 2026 as the record date (the “Record Date”) for determining stockholders of the Company entitled to receive notice of and vote at the Annual Meeting. Only stockholders of record as of the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. On the Record Date, there were (i) 47,956,258 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 (“Class A common stock”), outstanding, held by 410 stockholders of record, and (ii) 8,549,118 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.001 (“Class B common stock”), issued and outstanding, held by 50 stockholders of record. The actual number of beneficial holders of our Class A common stock is significantly greater than the number of stockholders of record and includes stockholders who are beneficial owners, but whose shares are held by banks, brokers and other nominees.

What are my voting rights under the Company’s dual class equity structure?

Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (as amended, the “Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation”) provides for a dual class common stock structure consisting of Class A and Class B common stock. In this Proxy Statement, we refer to the Class A and Class B common stock collectively as the “common stock.” The rights of holders of our Class A common stock and our Class B common stock are identical, except with respect to voting rights, conversion rights and certain transfer restrictions applicable to our Class B common stock. With respect to each proposal to come before the stockholders at the Annual Meeting, including the election of directors, each share of Class A common stock is entitled to one vote, and each share of Class B common stock is entitled to 10 votes. As of the Record Date, there were (i) 47,956,258 shares of Class A common stock outstanding, representing 84.9% of our total equity outstanding and 35.9% of the total voting power of our outstanding common stock, and (ii) 8,549,118 shares of Class B common stock outstanding, representing 15.1% of our total equity outstanding and 64.1% of the total voting power of our outstanding common stock. As of the Record Date, the SunTx Group beneficially owned 241,359 shares of Class A common stock and 8,164,156 shares of Class B common stock, collectively representing 61.4% of the total voting power of our outstanding common stock. As a result of this ownership structure, holders of our Class B common stock, and the SunTx Group in particular, have the ability to elect all of the members of our Board and to control the outcome of any other proposals to come before our stockholders at the Annual Meeting.

If I hold my shares through a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, how do I vote at the Annual Meeting?

If your shares are held through a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee (collectively, “nominees”), then you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name,” and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by your nominee, who is considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares. As the beneficial owner, you are invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, you may vote shares held in “street name” in person at the Annual Meeting only if you obtain a signed proxy from the record holder (your nominee) giving you the right to vote the shares. You also have the right to direct your nominee how to vote your shares. Your nominee should have provided you a voting instruction form explaining the process for voting your shares.

What is a broker non-vote?

A “broker non-vote” occurs when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee has not received instructions from the beneficial owner about how to vote on the proposal and does not have discretionary voting power for that proposal. If your shares are held in street name through a nominee and you do not instruct your nominee about how to vote your shares, then your nominee may vote your shares only on routine matters or, in its discretion, may leave your shares unvoted. Broker non-votes will be counted as present for purposes of establishing a quorum.

The ratification of RSM as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending September 30, 2026 (Proposal 2) is the only routine matter to be presented at the Annual Meeting, and as a result, brokers have discretionary authority to vote your shares of common stock with respect to such proposal. The election of directors (Proposal 1) is non-routine, and brokers will not be allowed to vote on this proposal without specific voting instructions from beneficial owners.

Table of Contents

If I am a stockholder of record, how do I vote at the Annual Meeting?

If your shares are registered directly in your name with the Company’s transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, Inc. (“Continental”), then you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares, and these proxy materials are being sent directly to you. As the stockholder of record, you may vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting. If you choose to vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting, please bring to the Annual Meeting proof of your identity and your ownership of the Company’s common stock on the Record Date, such as the enclosed proxy card or a statement of ownership from Continental. Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, the Company recommends that you vote your shares in advance as described below so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to, or are otherwise unable to, attend the Annual Meeting.

You also have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to the persons named as proxy holders, Ned N. Fleming, III, our Executive Chairman, Fred J. (Jule) Smith, III, our President and Chief Executive Officer, and Gregory A. Hoffman, our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, by any of the following means:

•By Internet: Go to the website www.proxyvote.com and follow the instructions. You will need the control number included on the enclosed proxy card in order to vote by internet.

•By Telephone: Dial toll-free 1-800-690-6903 and follow the recorded instructions. You will need the control number included on the enclosed proxy card in order to vote by telephone.

•By Mail: Mark your selections on the enclosed proxy card, date and sign your name exactly as it appears on the proxy card and mail the proxy card in the enclosed pre-paid envelope. Mailed proxy cards must be received no later than March 23, 2026 in order to be counted at the Annual Meeting.

In accordance with the Company’s Amended and Restated By-Laws (the “Amended and Restated By-Laws”), a complete list of stockholders of record who are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be available for inspection during the 10-day period ending on the day before the Annual Meeting at the main office of the Company during regular business hours.

May I revoke my proxy or change my voting instructions?

You may revoke your proxy or change your voting instructions prior to the Annual Meeting. If your shares are held through a nominee, you must follow the instructions from your nominee on how to change or revoke your voting instructions or how to vote in person at the Annual Meeting. If you are a stockholder of record, you may enter new voting instructions by using the internet or telephone methods described above or by mailing a new proxy card bearing a later date. Any of these methods will automatically revoke your earlier voting instructions if they are received by 11:59 p.m., Central Time, on March 23, 2026. You may also enter a new vote by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person. Your attendance at the Annual Meeting in person will not cause your previously granted proxy to be revoked unless you cast a new vote at the Annual Meeting.

What vote is required to approve each proposal, how are abstentions and broker non-votes treated and what are my choices when voting?

The election of directors will be determined by a plurality of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote in the election of directors. Under a plurality voting standard, the directors who are elected to serve on our Board will be the two nominees receiving the highest number of votes cast in the election. For each nominee, stockholders may either vote “FOR” that nominee or “WITHHOLD” their vote with respect to that nominee. Accordingly, shares electing to “WITHHOLD” from voting for a particular nominee and broker non-votes will be counted as present for purposes of establishing a quorum, but will have no effect on the election of directors.

Approval of Proposal 2 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter. Under this standard, Proposal 2 will be approved if the number of votes cast in favor of the proposal exceeds the number of votes cast against it. With respect to Proposal 2, stockholders may vote either “FOR” or “AGAINST” the proposal or may “ABSTAIN” from voting on the proposal. Shares abstaining from voting on Proposal 2 will be counted as present for purposes of establishing a quorum but will have no effect on the outcome of the vote. Broker non-votes are not applicable to Proposal 2 because your broker has discretionary authority to vote your shares of common stock with respect to such proposal.

The holders of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights with respect to the matters to be acted on at the Annual Meeting. Therefore, stockholders holding a majority in voting power of the shares of our common stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors will be able to elect all of our directors.

Table of Contents

What is the Board’s voting recommendation for the proposals?

The Board recommends that you vote your shares “FOR” each of the nominees to the Board in Proposal 1 and “FOR” the approval of Proposal 2. If you are a record holder who returns a completed proxy card that does not specify how you want to vote your shares on any of the proposals, your shares will be voted in accordance with the Board recommendations described above for such proposals. The Board urges you to review these proxy materials carefully before you vote.

Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?

We will announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting and publish preliminary results, or final results if available, in a Current Report on Form 8-K, which we expect to file within four business days after the Annual Meeting. If final results are unavailable at the time at which we file the Form 8-K, then we will file an amended report on Form 8-K to disclose the final voting results within four business days after the final voting results are known.

What happens if additional proposals are presented at the Annual Meeting?

Other than the proposals described in this Proxy Statement, we do not expect any matters to be presented for a vote at the Annual Meeting. If you grant a proxy pursuant to the attached proxy card, the persons named as proxy holders, Ned N. Fleming, III, our Executive Chairman, Fred J. (Jule) Smith, III, our President and Chief Executive Officer, and Gregory A. Hoffman, our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, will have the discretion to vote your shares on any additional matters properly presented for a vote at the Annual Meeting. If, for any reason, one or more of the Company’s nominees is not available as a candidate for director, then the persons named as proxy holders will vote shares for which completed proxies are returned for such other candidate or candidates as may be nominated by the Board.

What is the quorum requirement for the Annual Meeting?

The presence in person or by proxy of the holders of shares representing a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will constitute a quorum at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as present for the purpose of establishing a quorum.

Who will count the vote?

We have engaged Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. to tabulate the votes represented by proxies from nominees and stockholders of record. A representative of the Company will act as the inspector of election.

Is my vote confidential?

Proxy instructions, ballots and voting tabulations that identify individual stockholders are handled in a manner that protects your voting privacy. Your vote will not be disclosed either within the Company or to third parties, except (i) as necessary to meet applicable legal requirements, (ii) to allow for the tabulation and certification of the votes and (iii) to facilitate a successful proxy solicitation by the Board.

Do I have any dissenters’ or appraisal rights with respect to any of the matters to be voted on at the Annual Meeting?

No. None of our stockholders have any dissenters’ or appraisal rights with respect to the matters to be voted on at the Annual Meeting.

May I propose actions for consideration at next year’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders or nominate individuals to serve as directors?

You may submit proposals and director nominations for consideration at future Annual Meetings of Stockholders as follows:

Stockholder Proposals under Rule 14a-8: In order for a proposal by a stockholder of the Company to be eligible to be included in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders pursuant to the proposal process mandated by Rule 14a-8 (“Rule 14a-8”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the proposal generally must be received by the Company on or before September 29, 2026 and must comply with the informational and other requirements set forth in Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act.

Table of Contents

Inclusion of Stockholder Director Candidates on Company Proxy Card: Stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than our nominees must provide notice to our Secretary that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 of the Exchange Act in accordance with and within the time period prescribed in the advance notice provisions of our Amended and Restated By-Laws.

Other Stockholder Proposals and Nomination of Director Candidates: The Company’s Amended and Restated By-Laws also permit stockholders to nominate directors or submit proposals for a vote at a meeting of stockholders outside of the process provided by Rule 14a-8. In order for a stockholder to raise a proposal from the floor at an Annual Meeting of Stockholders or nominate an individual for election as a director, the proposal or nomination generally must be received by the Company not more than 120 days or less than 90 days before the first anniversary of the date of the preceding year’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Thus, in order for a proposal or nomination to be timely for the 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the proposal, together with the information required under the applicable by-law provision, generally must be received by the Company not earlier than November 24, 2026 or later than December 24, 2026.

Copy of Amended and Restated By-Law Provisions: Our Amended and Restated By-Laws are available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov. You may also contact our Secretary at our corporate headquarters for a copy of the relevant provisions of our Amended and Restated By-Laws regarding the requirements for making stockholder proposals and nominating director candidates. Additionally, a copy of our Amended and Restated By-Laws is available on the Company’s investor relations website at http://ir.constructionpartners.net under the heading “Corporate Governance - Governance Documents.”

For additional information about the deadlines for stockholder proposals and nominations for director candidates, see the discussion below under the heading “Deadline for Stockholder Proposals.”

What does it mean if I receive more than one set of proxy materials?

If you received more than one set of proxy materials, then your shares are registered in different names or are in more than one account. For each set of proxy materials that you receive, please submit your vote for the control number that has been assigned to you in such materials.

How do I obtain a separate set of proxy materials if I share an address with other stockholders?

To reduce expenses, in some cases, we may deliver one set of proxy materials to certain stockholders who share an address, unless otherwise requested by such stockholders. However, in such situations, a separate proxy card has been included with the proxy materials for each stockholder. If you have received only one set of proxy materials, you may request separate copies to be delivered promptly at no additional cost to you by calling us at (334) 673-9763 or by writing to us at Construction Partners, Inc., 290 Healthwest Drive, Suite 2, Dothan, Alabama 36303, Attention: Secretary. We hereby undertake to deliver promptly, upon written or oral request, a copy of the proxy materials to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single set of proxy materials was delivered.

If I share an address with other stockholders of the Company, how can we receive only one set of proxy materials for future meetings?

You may request that we send you and the other stockholders who share an address with you only one set of proxy materials by calling us at (334) 673-9763 or by writing to us at Construction Partners, Inc., 290 Healthwest Drive, Suite 2, Dothan, Alabama 36303, Attention: Secretary.

Table of Contents

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of the Record Date by: (i) each of our directors, including each director nominee; (ii) each of our named executive officers (our “NEOs”); (iii) all of our current directors and executive officers as a group; and (iv) each stockholder known by the Company to beneficially own more than 5% of a class of our common stock. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and includes voting or investment power with respect to the securities. Shares of common stock that an individual or group has the right to acquire within 60 days of the Record Date, including through the exercise of derivative securities, such as options, are deemed to be beneficially owned by such individual or group and are deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of such individual or group, but are not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person shown in the table.

The applicable percentage of ownership is based on a total of 47,956,258 shares of Class A common stock and 8,549,118 shares of Class B common stock outstanding as of the Record Date. Each share of Class A common stock is entitled to one vote per share, and each share of Class B common stock is entitled to 10 votes per share. The Class A common stock and Class B common stock vote together on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders, unless otherwise required by applicable law, our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or our Amended and Restated By-Laws. Neither class of our common stock has cumulative voting rights. Except as indicated in the footnotes below, we believe, based on information furnished to us, that the persons and entities named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of our common stock that they beneficially own. The Company does not know of any arrangements, including any pledge by any person of the Company’s securities, the operation of which may at a subsequent date result in a change in control of the Company. Unless otherwise indicated, the address for each director and NEO is: c/o Construction Partners, Inc., 290 Healthwest Drive, Suite 2, Dothan, Alabama 36303.

Except for the relationship between Ned N. Fleming, III, our Executive Chairman, and N. Nelson Fleming, IV, our Senior Vice President - Strategy and Business Development, as father and son, respectively, there are no family relationships between or among any of our directors, director nominees and executive officers. No director or executive officer of the Company currently serves as a director of a company that (i) has a class of securities registered under, or that is subject to the periodic reporting requirements of, the Exchange Act, or (ii) is an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. None of our directors or executive officers have been involved in any legal proceedings during the past 10 years that are material to an evaluation of the ability or integrity of such person. In addition, none of our directors, executive officers or 5% stockholders or any associate of any of the foregoing has been involved in any legal proceedings in which such person has or had a material interest adverse to the Company or any of our subsidiaries. The principal occupation and employment during the past five years of each of our directors was carried on, in each case except as specifically identified above, with a corporation or organization that is not a parent, subsidiary or other affiliate of the Company.

Director Independence and Controlled Company Exemption

Because the SunTx Group holds a majority of the voting power of our outstanding common stock, we are a “controlled company” under the listing rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”). As a controlled company, we are exempt from certain Nasdaq governance requirements that would otherwise apply to the composition and function of our Board. For example, we are not required to comply with certain rules that would otherwise require, among other things, (i) our Board to have a majority of independent directors, (ii) the compensation of our executive officers to be determined by a majority of the independent directors or a committee of independent directors, and (iii) director nominees to be selected or recommended either by a majority of the independent directors or a committee of independent directors. Notwithstanding our status as a controlled company, we remain subject to the requirements that our independent directors hold regular executive sessions and that our Audit Committee consist entirely of independent directors.

If at any time we cease to be a controlled company, we will take all action necessary to comply with the Nasdaq listing rules, including appointing a majority of independent directors to our Board and ensuring that our Compensation Committee and our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are each composed entirely of independent directors, subject to any permitted “phase-in” periods. We will no longer qualify as a controlled company if the SunTx Group ceases to hold a majority of the voting power of our outstanding common stock.

To qualify as “independent” under the Nasdaq listing rules, a director must meet certain objective criteria set forth in the Nasdaq listing rules, and our Board must affirmatively determine that the director has no relationship with us (either directly or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with us) that would interfere with his or her exercise of independent judgment in carrying out his or her responsibilities as a director. Among other things, the Nasdaq independence criteria include that the director not be our employee and not have engaged in various types of business dealings with the Company.

To assess director independence as defined in the Nasdaq listing rules, our Board has reviewed (i) all direct or indirect business relationships between each director (including his or her immediate family members) and the Company, including relationships that would require disclosure pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and relationships that do not rise to the level of requiring such disclosure, and (ii) each director’s relationships with charitable organizations. Based on this review, our Board has determined that Michael H. McKay, Stefan L. Shaffer and Noreen E. Skelly are “independent” directors under the Nasdaq listing rules. Additionally, our Board has determined that Messrs. McKay and Shaffer and Ms. Skelly satisfy the heightened independence requirements of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act for purposes of Audit Committee membership.

Board Leadership Structure

The Board oversees the business and affairs of the Company and monitors the performance of its management. Although the Board is not involved in the Company’s day-to-day operations, the directors keep themselves informed about the Company through meetings of the Board, reports from management and discussions with the Company’s executive officers. Directors also communicate with the Company’s outside advisors, as necessary.

Members of the Board are elected by our stockholders. The basic responsibility of the Board is to lead the Company by exercising its business judgment to act in what each director reasonably believes to be the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. Leadership is important to facilitate the Board acting effectively as a working group so that the Company and its performance may benefit.

The role of Executive Chairman of the Board includes providing continuous feedback on the direction, performance and strategy of the Company, presiding as chairman of Board meetings, setting the Board’s agenda with management and leading the Board in anticipating and responding to opportunities and challenges faced by the Company. Ned N. Fleming, III currently serves as the Executive Chairman of our Board. Our Board does not have a formal policy regarding the combination of the roles of Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer because the Board believes that it is in the best interests of the Company to have the flexibility to determine, from time to time, whether the positions should be held by the same person or by separate persons. The Board believes that the current separation of the roles of Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer allows the Company to benefit from the knowledge and leadership of two experienced business veterans and is advantageous to independence, oversight and objectivity. The Board may reconsider this leadership structure from time to time based on the leadership needs of our Board and the Company at any particular time.

Meetings of the Board

Our Board conducts its business through meetings of the full Board and its committees. Under our Corporate Governance Guidelines, directors are expected to prepare for and attend all meetings of the Board and committees on which they serve. During our fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, the Board met eight times, and no director attended fewer than 75% of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of the Board and (ii) the total number of meetings of committees of the Board for the period during which the director served on the Board or such committee. We have not adopted a formal policy regarding director attendance at the Company’s Annual Meetings of Stockholders; however, we encourage our directors to attend such meetings. Each member of the Board attended the most recent Annual Meeting of Stockholders, either in person or remotely.

Committees of the Board

The Board has three standing committees to assist it in carrying out its responsibilities: the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Each of the standing committees operates under its own written charter adopted by our Board, all of which are available on the Company’s investor relations website at http://ir.constructionpartners.net under the heading “Corporate Governance - Governance Documents.” In addition, special committees may be established under the direction of our Board when necessary to address specific issues. The standing committees annually review and assess the adequacy of their respective charters and recommend any revisions to the Board.

The membership and functions of each of the standing committees, as well as the number of meetings that each of them held during fiscal 2025, are described below.

The Board has determined that (i) each member of the Audit Committee is independent under the Nasdaq listing rules, satisfies the heightened independence requirements of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act and is financially literate and (ii) Mr. McKay and Ms. Skelly each qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” under the criteria set forth in the rules and regulations of the SEC. The Audit Committee met four times during fiscal 2025.

Compensation Committee

The primary purposes of the Compensation Committee are to establish salaries, incentives and other forms of compensation for our officers and other employees and to administer the Company’s incentive compensation and benefit plans. More specifically, the Compensation Committee is responsible for, among other things:

•in consultation with senior management, establishing the Company’s general compensation philosophy and objectives and determining the compensation, including salary, bonus, incentive and equity compensation of our executive officers;

•reviewing and approving incentive compensation and equity-based plans and, when necessary, revising or terminating existing plans and making recommendations to the Board and, where appropriate or required, our stockholders, with respect to such plans;

Pursuant to its charter, the Compensation Committee is authorized to retain and terminate advisors to assist the Compensation Committee in discharging its duties and responsibilities to the extent that the Compensation Committee deems necessary. This includes the authority to approve fees and the other terms and conditions of the advisors’ retention. In addition, any of the responsibilities described above may be delegated to one or more subcommittees, as the Compensation Committee may deem necessary or appropriate.

Our Compensation Committee consists of Messrs. Fleming (Chairperson), Matteson, and Shaffer. Our Board has determined that Mr. Shaffer is the only member of the Compensation Committee who is independent under the Nasdaq listing rules. The Compensation Committee met seven times during fiscal 2025.

Role of the Board in Risk Oversight

Our Board, as a whole and through its committees, has responsibility for the oversight of risk management at the Company, including risks related to cybersecurity. In its risk oversight role, our Board has the responsibility to satisfy itself that the risk management processes designed and implemented by management are adequate and functioning as designed. The

Table of Contents

Board receives reports from management on financial, operational, legal compliance and reputation risks and the degree of exposure to those risks. The Board helps ensure that management is properly focused on risk by, among other things, reviewing and discussing the performance of senior management and business units of the Company.

Our Board oversees an enterprise-wide approach to risk management, which is designed to (i) support the achievement of organizational objectives, including strategic objectives, (ii) improve long-term organizational performance, (iii) identify and mitigate emerging risks to our business, such as cybersecurity risks, and (iv) enhance stockholder value. Several Board committees are responsible for risk oversight in specific areas. For example, the Audit Committee oversees financial, accounting and internal control risk management policies and approves the independent auditor and its annual audit plan. The Audit Committee also reports periodically to the Board on the effectiveness of risk management processes in place and the overall risk assessment of the Company’s activities. The Compensation Committee assesses and monitors risks in the Company’s compensation program. For more information on the responsibilities of the committees of our Board, see the discussion about the respective committees under the heading “Committees of the Board.”

The Board has delegated to the Audit Committee primary responsibility for overseeing our IT security controls and the adequacy of our IT security program, compliance and controls with management. As part of such oversight, the Board, including members of the Audit Committee, receive periodic reports from management and our third-party service providers to assess the primary cybersecurity risks we face. Such reports also cover additional factors related to our IT security program, including its current status, capabilities, objectives and plans; the outcomes of regular business continuity, crisis communications, and disaster recovery exercises; updates on our ongoing compliance with applicable regulations; and the evolving cybersecurity threat landscape.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

We are committed to having sound corporate governance principles. Such principles are essential to running our business efficiently and maintaining our integrity in the marketplace. We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to all of our employees, including our executive officers, and the members of our Board. The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is available on our Investor Relations website at http://ir.constructionpartners.net/ under the heading “Corporate Governance - Governance Documents.” Any future changes or amendments to the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, and any waiver thereof that applies to our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or Chief Accounting Officer, will be posted on our website and otherwise reported in accordance with SEC and Nasdaq rules.

Corporate Governance Guidelines

The Board has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines to assist the Board and its committees in the exercise of their responsibilities. The Corporate Governance Guidelines set forth guiding principles and provide a flexible framework for the governance of the Company. The Corporate Governance Guidelines address, among other things, board composition, director qualifications and responsibilities, and stockholder communications with the Board. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for regularly reviewing and providing recommendations to the Board on the Corporate Governance Guidelines, and the full Board will approve changes as it deems appropriate. A copy of the Corporate Governance Guidelines is available on our Investor Relations website at http://ir.constructionpartners.net/ under the heading “Corporate Governance - Governance Documents.”

Nomination and Consideration of Director Candidates

General Procedures of the Board and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board is responsible for identifying and evaluating qualified candidates for election to the Board. Following its evaluation, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommends to the full Board a slate of director candidates for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement. These recommendations are based on an evaluation that is consistent with the criteria for selecting directors described below and are also consistent with the Company’s organizational documents and applicable law and listing rules. The backgrounds and qualifications of the directors, considered as group, are intended to provide a significant mix of experience, knowledge and abilities to allow the Board to fulfill its responsibilities.

In evaluating the suitability of director candidates, the Board and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee consider many factors, including the nominee’s integrity and judgment; independence; knowledge and skills; experience and accomplishments; contribution to board diversity; contribution to board interaction; availability and willingness to commit to participate in Board and committee activities; compatibility with the Company’s management team and culture; understanding of the Company’s business; and other factors that the Board and the Nominating and Corporate Governance

Table of Contents

Committee conclude are pertinent in light of the then-current needs of the Board. The Board believes that its membership should reflect a diversity of experience, gender, race, ethnicity and age. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee selects qualified nominees and reviews its recommendations with the Board, which decides whether to nominate a particular candidate for election or invite such candidate to join the Board. When evaluating the suitability of an incumbent director for nomination or re-election, the Board and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also consider the director’s past performance, including attendance at meetings and participation in and contributions to the activities of the Board. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may consider individuals recommended by Board members, management, stockholders and, if it deems appropriate, a professional search firm.

The Board may also consider candidates to fill a vacancy in the Board outside of the stockholder meeting process. In such a case, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee uses the same criteria used to evaluate a director nominee to be elected by stockholders. In the event of a vacancy to be filled by the Board, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will recommend to the Board one or more candidates for election by the Board, and proxies will not be solicited.

Recommendations of Director Candidates by Stockholders

The Board has a formal policy governing the manner in which the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider director candidates recommended by the Company’s stockholders. Candidates recommended by stockholders will be evaluated in the same manner as candidates recommended by directors or management according to the criteria set forth above.

Stockholders who wish to recommend candidates for the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s consideration must submit a written recommendation to the Secretary of the Company at 290 Healthwest Drive, Suite 2, Dothan, Alabama 36303. Recommendations must be sent by certified or registered mail and received by October 1 for consideration at the following year’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Recommendations must include the following:

•the recommending stockholder’s name, number of shares owned, length of period held, proof of ownership and written certification that such recommending stockholder intends to continue to remain a stockholder through the date of the Annual Meeting of Stockholders with respect to which the candidate is to be nominated;

•the candidate’s name, address, phone number, e-mail address and age;

•a resume describing, at a minimum, the candidate’s educational background, occupation, employment history and material outside commitments (e.g., memberships on other boards and committees, charitable foundations, etc.);

•a supporting statement that describes the stockholder’s and candidate’s reasons for nomination to the Board and demonstrates the candidate’s ability to satisfy the director qualifications described above;

•the candidate’s consent to a background investigation;

•a notarized affidavit executed by the candidate to the effect that, if nominated and elected, he or she will serve, is eligible for election as a member of the Board, and consents to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee, if he or she will in fact be so named;

•a description of all direct and indirect compensation and other material monetary agreements, arrangements and understandings during the past three years between the nominating stockholder and the candidate;

•a description of any voting commitments and/or any other arrangements or obligations by which the candidate is or will be bound as a director;

•a completed questionnaire regarding the candidate, which may be obtained from the Secretary of the Company, relating to stock exchange listing requirements for director independence that are applicable to the Company; and

•any other information relating to the recommended stockholder and the candidate that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement on Schedule 14A for solicitation of proxies for election of directors under the Exchange Act and pursuant to Nasdaq rules and any other applicable laws, rules or regulations.

The Secretary will promptly forward these materials to the Chairperson of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.
