Natalia Shuman, President and Chief Executive Officer commented:
“I am pleased to report our third quarter performance, which resulted in quarterly Adjusted EBITDA of $30.2 million, up nearly 30% year-over-year, reflecting continued material improvement in our operating leverage and pursuit of profitable growth and diversification. We believe that this growth reflects the strength of our operating model, disciplined cost management, and continued focus on driving efficiencies across the business. We also achieved an increase in revenue of 7.0%, with growth generated in each of our five largest industries served, including double-digit growth in Aerospace & Defense, Industrials, Infrastructure, and Power Generation. This overall revenue growth was driven by market demand for our services and demonstrates the success of our comprehensive solutions and our ability to deliver on our customers' expectations.”

Ms. Shuman continued,“We have the foundation, technical know-how, proven expertise and the people to win. We are advancing our organizational systems, empowering our technicians with digital tools, and investing in relationships with our customers to drive ROI and shareholder value.”

Third Quarter and First Nine Months 2025 Additional Detailed Highlights:
The Company's prior year results reflect the reclassification of certain overhead and personnel expenses in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, from SG&A to cost of revenue. The reclassification recorded within the financials was $5.7 million and $15.4 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2024, respectively. This reclassification of overhead and personnel expenses had no impact on income from operations, net income or Adjusted EBITDA comparability.

Income from operations was $20.4 million in the third quarter of 2025, as compared to $11.9 million in the prior year comparable period, an increase of 71.9% year over year. Third quarter income from operations before special items (non-GAAP) was $22.3 million as compared to $13.1 million in the prior year comparable period.

The Company recorded $1.8 million of reorganization and other costs in the third quarter of 2025 related to the Company's continued actions to reduce support, overhead, and other related costs.

Net income was $13.1 million in the third quarter of 2025, or $0.41 per diluted share, as compared to net income of $6.4 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, in the prior year comparable period. Third quarter net income excluding special items (non-GAAP) was $14.6 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, as compared to net income excluding special items (non-GAAP) of $6.3 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, in the prior year comparable period.

In the first nine months of 2025, net cash provided by operating activities was $0.8 million, a decrease from $24.5 million of net cash provided by operating activities in the prior year period. Free cash flow (non-GAAP) was negative $20.9 million in the first nine months of 2025, compared to positive $6.3 million in the prior year comparable period. This decrease in net cash provided by operating activities and free cash flow (non-GAAP) is largely due to an increase in accounts receivable related to working capital timing.

The Company's gross debt was $202.3 million as of September 30, 2025, compared to $169.6 million and $189.4 million as of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2025, respectively. The Company's net debt, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $174.5 million as of September 30, 2025 as compared to $151.3 million and $168.8 million as of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2025, respectively.

2025 Outlook
Although strong revenue growth was achieved in the third quarter, the Company expects full-year 2025 revenue to be between $716.0 million to $720.0 million. This would represent essentially flat performance compared to the prior year, giving effect to the exclusion of voluntary Laboratory consolidations of approximately 1% in full year 2025 revenue resulting from the Company's ongoing efforts to exit unprofitable business during 2025.

Adjusted EBITDA has continued to improve and is expected to increase for full-year 2025. Accordingly, the Company is raising its prior qualitative Adjusted EBITDA guidance range of exceeding the 2024 Adjusted EBITDA level of $82.5 million. Based on the strong third quarter performance and the current fourth quarter forecast, the Company now expects its full-year Adjusted EBITDA to be between $86.0 million to $88.0 million.

Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, enhancements in our organizational systems, tools and integrated solutions, the Company's efforts to voluntarily exit unprofitable business and our outlook and expectations for full-year 2025 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA. Such forward-looking statements relate to MISTRAS' financial results and estimates, products and services, business model, operational and strategic initiatives to improve operating leverage, strategy, growth opportunities, profitability and competitive position, and other matters.

^{Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to financial information prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. ("GAAP"), this press release also contains adjusted financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and that we believe provide investors and management with supplemental information relating to the Company's operating performance and trends that facilitate comparisons between periods and with respect to trends and projected information. The term "Adjusted EBITDA" used in this release is a financial measure not calculated in accordance with GAAP and is defined by the Company as net income attributable to MISTRAS Group, Inc. plus: interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation expense, certain acquisition related costs (including transaction due diligence costs and adjustments to the fair value of contingent consideration), foreign exchange (gain) loss, other income, non-cash impairment charges, reorganization and other costs and, if applicable, certain additional special items which are noted. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income (Loss) as computed under GAAP is set forth in a table attached to this press release. The Company also uses the term“free cash flow” a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company defines "free cash flow" as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures (which is classified as an investing activity). The Company additionally uses the terms:“Segment and Total Company Income (Loss) from Operations (GAAP) to Income (Loss) from Operations before Special Items (non-GAAP)”,“Net Income (Loss) (GAAP) and Diluted EPS (GAAP) to Net Income Excluding Special Items (non-GAAP) and Diluted EPS Excluding Special Items (non-GAAP)” which reconciles the non-GAAP amounts to the GAAP financial measure. The non-GAAP financial performance measure "Income (loss) from operations before special items” is used for each of our three operating segments, the Corporate segment and the "Total Company". Income (Loss) from operations before Special Items excludes: (a) transaction expenses related to acquisitions, such as professional fees and due diligence costs, (b) the net changes in the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration liabilities, (c) impairment charges, (d) reorganization and other costs, which includes items such as severance, labor relations matters and asset and lease termination costs and (e) other special items such as environmental expense and legal settlement and insurance recoveries. These adjustments have been excluded from the GAAP measure because these expenses and credits are not related to our or any individual segment's core business operations. The acquisition related costs and special items can be a net expense or credit in any given period. This press release also includes the term“net debt”, a non-GAAP financial measure which the Company defines as the sum of the current and long-term portions of long-term debt, less cash and cash equivalents. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are also set forth in tables attached to this press release. Each of these non-GAAP financial measures has material limitations as a performance or liquidity measure and should not be considered alternatives to Net Income (Loss) or any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Because Income (loss) from operations before special items and other non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release may not be calculated in the same manner by all companies, these measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.}
