Total contract valued at $100 million

Lantana, Fla., Nov. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- JFB Construction Holdings (Nasdaq: JFB), a real estate development and construction company focused on hospitality, commercial, industrial, and residential property development, today announced that it has been approved for the issuance of an $18.9 million bond to act as general contractor for the first phase of construction of a public high school in DeSoto County, Fla.

“Last month we announced that we executed an $18.9 million contract for the first of three phases of the construction and continuation of the existing campus of the high school of [a total of] approximately 100,000 square feet, over 40 acres, for an additional 1379 students,” said CEO Joseph F. Basile, III. The total value of the contract is $100 million.

“I have signed a personal guarantee, demonstrating the confidence I have in JFB Construction and the financial ability of the company to complete this project on time and on budget. This approval and bond issuance will allow us to proceed with the contract, as the bond provides a financial guarantee to the client that the project will be completed and that subcontractors and suppliers will be paid. 

“Our strong balance sheet, with over $34 million in working capital, is a leading factor in being awarded these types of contracts. Our working capital enhances our bonding capacity, which is critical for securing larger and more complex construction projects, with lower risk to our clients.

“We have started construction and we plan to complete construction of Phase 1 in January 2026. The value of the Phase 2 contract is valued at over $30 million, on which we plan to commence construction in June 2026,” concluded Mr. Basile.
