The company, known for its diversified engineering and construction services, has benefited from strong growth in the renewable energy sector, particularly in utility-scale solar projects.

"Primoris Services, which was the Fund’s second largest holding coming into the quarter and was the biggest contributor, delivered solid financial results in the first quarter of 2024. The company reported a 14% increase in revenues, driven by continued strong revenue growth in its Energy segment which is primarily fueled by renewables.
