NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – GENERAL

Description of Business: Transcat, Inc. (“Transcat,” “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) is a leading provider of accredited calibration services, cost control and optimization services, and distribution and rental of value-added professional grade handheld test, measurement and control instrumentation. The Company is focused on providing services and products to highly regulated industries, particularly the life science industry, which includes pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and other FDA-regulated businesses. Additional industries served include industrial manufacturing; energy and utilities, including oil and gas; chemical manufacturing; FAA-regulated businesses, including aerospace and defense and other industries that require accuracy in their processes, confirmation of the capabilities of their equipment, and for which the risk of failure is very costly.

Basis of Presentation: Transcat’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been included. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of what the results will be for the fiscal year. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the fiscal year ended March 29, 2025 (“fiscal year 2025”) contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2025 filed with the SEC.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of Transcat’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") requires that the Company make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions are used for, but not limited to, allowance for credit losses and returns, inventory reserves, estimated levels of achievement for performance-based restricted stock units, fair value of stock options, depreciable lives of fixed assets, estimated lives of intangible assets, fair value of the goodwill reporting units, and the valuation of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration transferred in business acquisitions. Future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty; accordingly, accounting estimates require the exercise of judgment. The accounting estimates used in the preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as the operating environment changes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Such changes and refinements in estimation methodologies are reflected in reported results of operations in the period in which the changes are made and, if material, their effects are disclosed in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with an original maturity, when purchased, of three months or less and are stated at cost, which approximates fair value.

Inventory: Inventory consists of finished goods purchased for resale and is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Costs are determined using the average cost method of inventory valuation. Inventory is reduced by a reserve for items not saleable at or above cost by applying a specific loss factor, based on historical experience and current demand, to specific categories of ~~its~~ inventory. Inventory is at risk of obsolescence if economic conditions change. Relevant economic conditions include changing consumer demand, customer preferences or increasing competition. The Company believes these risks are largely mitigated because its inventory typically turns several times per year. The Company evaluates the adequacy of the reserve on a quarterly basis.

Revenue Recognition: Distribution non-rental revenue is recorded when an order’s title and risk of loss transfers to the customer, which is generally upon shipment. Distribution rental revenue is recognized over time using the time-elapsed output method as this portrays the transfer of control to the customer. The Company recognizes the majority of its Service revenue based upon when the calibration or other activity is performed and then shipped and/or delivered to the customer. The majority of the Company’s revenue generating activities have a single performance obligation and are recognized at the point in time when control transfers and/or the Company's obligation has been fulfilled, which is generally upon shipment. Some Service revenue is generated from managing customers’ calibration programs in which the Company recognizes revenue over time using the time-elapsed output method as this portrays the transfer of control to the customer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for product shipped or services performed. Sales taxes and other taxes billed and collected from customers are excluded from revenue. The Company generally invoices its customers for freight, shipping, and handling charges. Freight billed to customers is included in revenue. Shipping and handling is not included in revenue. Provisions for customer returns are provided for in the period the related revenue is recorded based upon historical data.

Under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers", ~~The~~the Company uses judgments that could potentially impact the timing of its satisfaction of performance obligations. Such judgments include considerations in determining transaction prices and when performance obligations are satisfied for standard product sales that include general payment terms that are between net 30 and 90 days.

Revenue recognized from prior period performance obligations for the ~~second~~third quarter of the fiscal year ending March 28, 2026 (“fiscal year 2026”) was immaterial. As of ~~September~~December 27, 2025, the Company had no unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected duration of greater than one year. Pursuant to ASC Topic 606, the Company applied the practical expedient with respect to disclosure of the deferral and future expected timing of revenue recognition for transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations. Deferred revenue, unbilled revenue and deferred contract costs recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of ~~September~~December 27, 2025 and March 29, 2025 were immaterial. See Note 4 for disaggregated revenue information.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments: Transcat has determined the fair value of debt and other financial instruments using a valuation hierarchy. The hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value, consists of three levels. Level 1 uses observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2 uses inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, which is defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, requires the Company to develop its own assumptions. The carrying amount of debt on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets approximates fair value due to variable interest rate pricing on a portion of the debt with the balance bearing an interest rate approximating current market rates, and the carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

Stock-Based Compensation: The Company measures the cost of services received in exchange for all equity awards granted, including stock options and restricted stock units, based on the fair value of the award as of the grant date. The Company records compensation cost related to unvested equity awards by recognizing, on a straight-line basis, the unamortized grant date fair value over the remaining service period for awards expected to vest. Excess tax benefits for share-based award activity are reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as a component of the provision for income taxes. Excess tax benefits are realized benefits from tax deductions for exercised awards in excess of the deferred tax asset attributable to stock-based compensation costs for such awards. The Company did not capitalize any stock-based compensation costs as part of an asset. The Company estimates forfeiture rates based on its historical experience. During the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal year 2026 and fiscal year 2025, the Company recorded non-cash stock-based compensation cost of $35.0 million and $12.61 million, respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions: The accounts of Cal OpEx Limited (d/b/a Transcat Ireland), an Irish company, and Transcat Canada Inc., both of which are wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company, are maintained in their local currencies, the Euro and the Canadian dollar, respectively, and have been translated to U.S. dollars. Accordingly, the amounts representing assets and liabilities have been translated at the period-end rates of exchange and related revenue and expense accounts have been translated at an average rate of exchange during the period. Gains and losses arising from translation of Cal OpEx Limited’s and Transcat Canada Inc.’s financial statements into U.S. dollars are recorded directly to the accumulated other comprehensive loss component of shareholders’ equity.

Transcat records foreign currency gains and losses on business transactions denominated in foreign currency. The net foreign currency impact was a net loss of $0.2 million for the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal year 2026 and a net loss of less than $0.41 million for the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal year 2025. The Company ~~continually utilizes~~ utilized short-term foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce the risk that its future earnings denominated in Canadian dollars would be adversely affected by changes in currency exchange rates. The Company ~~does~~ did not apply hedge accounting and therefore the net change in the fair value of the contracts, which totaled a loss of less than $0.1 million, and a gain of ~~less than~~ $0.12 million during the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal years 2026 and 2025, respectively, is recognized as a component of ~~Interest and~~ Other (Income) Expense , net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The change in the fair value of the contracts iswas offset by the change in fair value on the underlying accounts receivables denominated in Canadian dollars being hedged. On September 27, 2025, the Company had a foreign exchange contract, which matured in October 2025, outstanding in the notional amount of $0.6 million. This contract was subsequently renewed and remains in place. The Company does not use hedging arrangements for speculative purposes.

Earnings Per Share: Basic earnings per share of the Company's common stock, par value $0.50 per share ("common stock"), are computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share of common stock reflect the assumed conversion of stock options, unvested restricted stock units using the treasury stock method and contingent consideration classified as equity in periods in which they have a dilutive effect. In computing the per share effect of assumed conversion, proceeds received from the exercise of options and unvested restricted stock units are considered to have been used to purchase shares of common stock at the average market prices during the period, and the resulting net additional shares of common stock are included in the calculation of average shares of common stock outstanding.

For the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal ~~years~~ year 2026, ~~and~~the net additional common stock equivalents had no effect on the calculation of diluted earnings per share. For the first nine months of fiscal year 2025, the net additional common stock equivalents had a ($0.01) effect on the calculation of diluted earnings per share. The average shares outstanding used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share are as follows (amounts in thousands):

Goodwill and Intangible Assets: Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair values of the underlying net assets of an acquired business. The Company tests goodwill for impairment for each reporting unit on an annual basis during the fourth quarter of its fiscal year, or immediately if conditions indicate that such impairment could exist. The Company is permitted, but not required, to qualitatively assess indicators of a reporting unit’s fair value to determine whether it is necessary to perform ~~the~~a ~~two-step~~quantitative ~~goodwill impairment test~~analysis. If a quantitative test is deemed necessary, a discounted cash flow analysis is prepared to estimate fair value.

NOTE 2 – LONG-TERM DEBT

On July 29, 2025, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with a group of three lenders establishing a new five-year $150.0 million secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). Borrowing options under the Credit Facility include: (i) a revolving loan option; (ii) a swingline loan option; and (iii) letters of credit, each of which is provided on a committed basis. The Credit Facility replaced the Company’s former $80.0 million credit facility (the “Replaced Facility”), which included a letter of credit subfacility of $10.0 million and the Company’s 2018 term loan, with an original principal amount of $15.0 million (the “2018 Term Loan”).

In connection with the Credit Agreement, the Company entered into a syndicated loan. The lender of the Replaced Facility participated in the Credit Agreement. For accounting purposes, the transaction was accounted for as a debt modification; however, there were no remaining unamortized costs from the Replaced Facility. The Company incurred financing costs that will be deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the Credit Agreement. These amounts are included in Other Assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

On July 7, 2021, the Company entered into the Replaced Facility with Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company (“M&T”), that amended and restated in its entirety the Company’s prior credit agreement with M&T. The Replaced Facility provided for a revolving credit commitment of $80.0 million through June 2026, with a letter of credit subfacility of $10.0 million. The 2018 Term Loan was also provided for under the Replaced Facility.

The Credit Agreement allows the Company to use up to $50.0 million under the Credit Facility for acquisitions in any single fiscal year with an exception for the acquisition of Essco. In addition, we are permitted to make restricted payments up to $25.0 million in the aggregate over the term of the Credit Facility and $10.0 million in any single fiscal year to repurchase shares and pay dividends.

As of ~~September~~December 27, 2025, $150.0 million was available for borrowing, subject to covenant restrictions, under the Credit Facility, of which $~~111~~99.9 million was outstanding.

Interest and Other Costs: Effective July 1, 2023, interest on outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility accrued, at Transcat’s election, at either the variable Daily Simple SOFR or a fixed rate for a designated period at the SOFR corresponding to such period (subject to a 1.00% floor), in each case, plus a margin. Unused fees accrued based on the average daily amount of unused credit available on the revolving credit facility. Interest rate margins and unused fees are determined on a quarterly basis based upon the Company’s calculated leverage ratio. The Company’s weighted average interest rate for the revolving credit facility for the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2026 was 65.07%.

Covenants: The Credit Facility has certain covenants with which the Company is required to comply, including a fixed charge ratio covenant, which prohibits the Company's fixed charge ratio from being less than 1.20 to 1.00, and a leverage ratio covenant, which prohibits the Company's leverage ratio of outstanding indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA from exceeding 3.00 to 1.00.

Other Terms: The Company pledged all of its U.S. tangible and intangible personal property, the equity interests of its U.S.-based subsidiaries, and a majority of the common stock of Transcat Canada Inc. and Cal Op Ex Limited as collateral security for the loans made under the Credit Facility.

NOTE 3 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

In September 2021, the Transcat, Inc. 2021 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”) was approved by shareholders and became effective. The 2021 Plan replaced the Transcat, Inc. 2003 Incentive Plan (the “2003 Plan”). Shares available for grant under the 2021 Plan include any shares remaining available for issuance under the 2003 Plan and any shares that are subject to outstanding awards under the 2003 Plan that are subsequently canceled, expired, forfeited, or otherwise not issued or are settled in cash. The 2021 Plan provides for, among other awards, grants of restricted stock units and stock options to directors, officers and key employees at the fair market value at the date of grant. At September 27, 2025, 0.5 million shares of common stock were available for future grant under the 2021 Plan.

The Company receives an excess tax benefit related to restricted stock vesting and stock options exercised and redeemed. The discrete tax benefits related to share-based compensation and stock option activity during the first six months of fiscal year 2026 and fiscal year 2025 were less than $0.1 million and $1.1 million, respectively.

Restricted Stock Units: The Company grants time-based and performance-based restricted stock units as a component of executive and key employee compensation. Expense for restricted stock unit grants is recognized on a straight-line basis for the service period of the stock award based upon fair value of the award on the date of grant. The fair value of a restricted stock unit grant is the quoted market price for a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. These restricted stock units are generally either time vested or vest following the third fiscal year end from the date of grant subject to cumulative Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) targets over the eligible period. There was a special award granted in September 2025 that will vest following the second fiscal year end from the date of grant subject to cumulative Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) targets over the eligible period.

Compensation cost ultimately recognized for performance-based restricted stock units will equal the grant date fair market value of the unit that coincides with the actual outcome of the performance conditions. On an interim basis, the Company records compensation cost based on the estimated level of achievement of the performance conditions. The estimated level of achievement for performance-based restricted stock units granted in fiscal year 2025 and fiscal year 2026, are estimated to be 100% and 150% of the targets, respectively.

The following table summarizes the non-vested restricted stock units outstanding as of September 27, 2025 (in thousands, except per unit data):

			Weighted

~~Total~~NOTE ~~expense~~3 ~~relating~~– toSTOCK-BASED restricted stock units, based on grant date fair value and the achievement criteria, was $2.5 million and $0.9 million in the first six months of fiscal year 2026 and fiscal year 2025, respectively. As of September 27, 2025, unearned compensation, to be recognized over the grants’ respective service periods, totaled $12.0 million based on estimated achievement levels as of September 27, 2025. If the maximum performance levels were achieved, the unearned compensation could be a maximum of $12.6 million.COMPENSATION

Expense for restricted stock unit grants is recognized on a straight-line basis for the service period of the stock award based upon the fair value of the award on the date of grant. The fair value of a restricted stock unit grant is the quoted market price for a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

NOTE 4 – SEGMENT INFORMATION

~~Operating~~An ~~segments~~operating ~~represent~~segment is a component of the Company that engages in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the public entity’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. Once operating segments ~~are~~were identified, the Company determined which of those operating segments are required to be presented as reportable segments based on the quantitative thresholds.

Transcat has two reportable segments: Service and Distribution. Through its Service segment, the Company offers calibration, repair, inspection, analytical qualifications, preventative maintenance, consulting and other related services. Through its Distribution segment, the Company sells and rents national and proprietary brand instruments to customers globally. There are no intersegment revenues.

The Company's CODM is ~~Lee Rudow,~~ its President & Chief Executive Officer. Both of the Company's reportable segments are regularly reviewed by the CODM through monthly revenue, gross profit, operating income and consolidated financial forecast updates and through regular and monthly meetings with the executive leadership team. The primary financial measure used by the CODM for the Company's reportable segments is Operating Income, (Loss) as reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income ~~and is most consistent with the measurement principles used in the consolidated financial statements~~. This measure is used by the CODM to make decisions on resource allocation, assess the performance of the business, and monitor budget versus actual results. Significant expenses reviewed by the CODM consist of cost of revenue and operating expenses, which individually are consistent in total with what is shown on the face of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

The CODM does not review assets or other balance sheet information in evaluating the results of the Company's segments, and therefore, such information is not presented.

NOTE 5 – BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

Essco: Effective August 5, 2025, the Company acquired 100% of the membership units of Essco Calibration Laboratory, LLC (“Essco”), a privately-held calibration services corporation located in the Boston Metro area that is ISO 17025 certified. This transaction aligned with a key component of the Company’s acquisition strategy of targeting businesses that expand the Company’s geographic reach and the depth and breadth of the Company’s service capabilities.

The Essco goodwill is primarily attributable to the workforce acquired, as well as operational synergies and other intangibles that do not qualify for separate recognition. The goodwill and intangible assets related to the Essco acquisition have been allocated to the Service segment. Intangible assets related to the Essco acquisition are being amortized for financial reporting purposes on an accelerated basis over the estimated useful lives of up to 15 years and are deductible for tax purposes. Amortization of goodwill related to the Essco acquisition is deductible for income tax purposes.

The Essco Customer Base & Contracts intangible asset was calculated using the MPEEM (Multi-Period Excess Earnings Method) under the Income approach and adjusting for the cash flow benefit of tax amortization of purchased intangibles. The fair value was determined to be $34.0 million and was assigned a useful life of 15 years. The Essco Trademarks and Tradenames intangible asset was calculated using the Relief-From-Royalty Method, which is a variant of the income approach and the market approach, and adjusting for the cash flow benefit of tax amortization of purchased intangibles. The fair value was determined to be $2.7 million and was assigned a useful life of seven years. The weighted average useful life of acquired intangible assets acquired is 15 14 years.

The total purchase price for Essco ~~was~~is approximately $85.64 million , consisting of $82.8 million in cash paid at closing and $2.8 million in accrued liabilities related to certain post-closing adjustments, and payments ~~and~~less ~~indemnification~~$0.2 ~~claims,~~million ifworking ~~any~~capital receivable. There was a measurement period adjustment in December 2025 related to working capital that resulted in a $0.2 million decrease in goodwill. As of ~~September~~December 27, 2025, $2.8 million remains unpaid and is reflected in accrued compensation and other current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The purchase was primarily financed by a draw on the Credit Agreement. See Note 2 - Long-Term Debt for more details.

The Company has preliminarily ~~estimate~~estimated fair values for the assets purchased and liabilities assumed as of the date of the acquisition. The amounts reported are considered preliminary as the Company is completing the valuations required to allocate the purchase price. The following is a summary of the preliminary purchase price allocation, in the aggregate, to the fair value, of Essco's assets and liabilities acquired on August 5, 2025 (in thousands):

The Becnel ~~tradenames~~Trademarks and ~~Trademarks~~Tradenames asset was calculated using the relief from royalty approach, which is a variant of the income approach and adjusting for the cash flow benefit of tax amortization of purchased intangibles. The fair value was determined to be $0.8 million and was assigned a useful life of ~~eleven~~11 years. The weighted average useful life of acquired intangible assets acquired is 10 years.

The total purchase price for Becnel was approximately $49.8 million consisting of up to $17.5 million in cash and the issuance of common stock valued at $32.3 million. Pursuant to the Becnel agreement, the Company held back approximately $2.5 million of the purchase price for certain potential post-closing adjustments. This includes $0.5 million withheld for ordinary post-closing adjustments and $2.0 million withheld that is subject to revenue target achievement. The $0.5 million holdback was paid to the sellers in April 2025.

Pursuant to the Becnel agreement, the purchase price is subject to reduction by $2.0 million if certain revenue targets are not met through April 15, 2026. As of April 15, 2024, the estimated fair value of this contingent consideration, classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, was approximately $1.5 million. This amount was calculated using a Geometric Brownian motion distribution that was then used in a Monte Carlo simulation model. Assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation model included: 1) discount rate of 11.00%, 2) risk-free interest rate of 5.00%, 3) asset volatility of 30.00%, and 4) forecasted revenue. 50% of this contingent consideration is payable in cash and 50% of this contingent consideration is payable in 9,283 shares of Transcat common stock. The cash portion of the contingent consideration is classified as a liability and is recorded in other liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The stock portion of the contingent consideration is classified as equity and is recorded in shareholders equity in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The contingent consideration payout will either be $0 or $2.0 million depending on the revenue target achievement.

This cash portion of the contingent consideration is remeasured quarterly. If, as a result of remeasurement, the value of the cash portion of the contingent consideration changes, any charges or income will be included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. After reviewing the fiscal year 2026 forecast, the Company revalued the contingent consideration payout during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025. As of ~~September~~December 27, 2025 and March 29, 2025, the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration, classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, remains zero. This amount was calculated using a Geometric Brownian motion distribution that was then used in a Monte Carlo simulation model. Assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation model included: 1) discount rate of 14.50%, 2) risk-free interest rate of 4.01%, 3) asset volatility of 30.00%, and 4) forecasted revenue.

Due to the uncertainty with utilizing these significant unobservable inputs for this Level 3 fair value measurement, materially higher or lower fair value measurements may be recognized at subsequent remeasurement ~~periods~~dates.

The following is a summary of the purchase price allocation, in the aggregate, to the fair value, of Becnel's assets and liabilities acquired on April 15, 2024 (in thousands):

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from the information provided in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 29, 2025.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Executive Summary

During our ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2026, we had consolidated revenue of $8283.39 million. This represented an increase of $1417.41 million or 2125.36% versus the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2025. This increase was primarily due to acquisitions, service organic revenue growth (a non-GAAP measure) and a $5.7 0 million increase in distribution revenue. Acquired revenue, which represents revenue generated from acquisitions ~~completed~~for twelve months ~~after~~subsequent ~~the~~to ~~end of~~ the ~~prior~~acquisition ~~period~~date, was $9.8 million. ~~Organic~~Service organic revenue, increased by 67.83% versus the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2025. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for a description and reconciliation of the non-GAAP measure. See Note 5 – “Business Acquisitions” to our unaudited consolidated financial statements in this report for more information about the impact of our acquisitions.

Our ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2026 gross profit was $2625.83 million. This was an increase of $5.6 million or 2628.23% versus the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2025. Consolidated gross margin was 3230.51%, an increase of 10.26% versus the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2025. This increase in gross profit percentage was primarily due to higher margins from the Distribution segment when compared to the prior year period.

Total operating expenses were $2325.32 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2026, an increase of $57.86 million or 3343.12% when compared to the prior fiscal year ~~second~~third quarter. Included in operating expenses during the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2026 were incremental operating expenses from the acquisitions of Martin and Essco, including customer base amortization and acquisition-related costs, increased stock-based compensation and higher incentive-based employee costs due to higher sales. As a percentage of total revenue, operating expenses were 2830.30% in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2026, up 23.57% from 2526.83% in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2025. Operating income was $30.51 million, a decrease of $0.2.0 million, or 695.28% and operating margin decreased from 53.51% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2025 to 40.31% in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2026.

Net ~~income~~loss was $1.31 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2026 versus net income of $32.34 million in the ~~second~~ third quarter of fiscal year 2025. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in ~~administrative~~amortization ~~costs~~of acquisition-related intangible assets, ~~interest~~stock-based ~~expense~~compensation, ~~and~~CEO ~~income~~transition ~~tax~~costs and interest expense.

Service revenue, which accounted for 64.20% and 6562.03% of our total revenue in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal years 2026 and 2025, respectively, increased $812.81 million or 1929.91% from the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2025 to the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2026 despite economic volatility. This year-over-year increase included $9.80 million inof incremental service revenue from the acquisitions of Martin and Essco.

Our fiscal years 2026 and 2025 Service revenue growth, in relation to prior fiscal year quarter comparisons, was as follows:

Within any fiscal year, while we add new customers, we also have customers from the prior fiscal year whose service orders may not repeat for any number of factors. Among those factors are variations in the timing of periodic calibrations and other services, customer capital expenditures and customer outsourcing decisions. Because the timing of Service segment orders can vary on a quarter-to-quarter basis, we believe trailing twelve-month information provides a better indication of the progress of this segment.

The following table presents the trailing twelve-month Service segment revenue for the first, second and ~~second~~third quarters of fiscal year 2026 and each quarter in fiscal year 2025 as well as the trailing twelve-month revenue growth as a comparison to that of the prior fiscal year period:

Our strategy has been to focus our investments in the core electrical, temperature, pressure, physical/dimensional and radio frequency/microwave calibration disciplines. We expect to subcontract approximately 13% to 15% of our Service revenue to third-party vendors for calibration beyond our chosen scope of capabilities. We continually evaluate our outsourcing needs and make capital investments, as deemed necessary, to add more in-house capabilities and reduce the need for third-party vendors. Capability expansion through business acquisitions is another way that we seek to reduce the need for outsourcing.

Our Distribution revenue accounted for 3536.80% of our total revenue in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2026 and 3537.07% of our total revenue in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2025. During the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2026, Distribution segment revenue was $2930.42 million which was an increase of $5.70 million or 2419.08%. This increase was primarily due to incremental traditional rental revenue, and higher revenue from our non-rental products ~~and $0~~.~~8 million of incremental revenue primarily related to the acquisition of Martin.~~

The following table presents the quarterly historical trend of Distribution revenue in fiscal years 2026 and 2025 compared to the prior year fiscal quarter:

The Distribution segment revenue increase for the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2026 versus the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2025 was primarily due to ~~revenue~~a ~~primarily~~favorable ~~increases~~sales inmix ~~traditional~~driven ~~rental~~by ~~products, higher revenue from non-~~rental ~~products, and incremental~~ revenue ~~related to the acquisition of Martin~~.

Distribution revenue includes orders for instruments that we routinely stock in our inventory, customized products, and other products ordered less frequently, which we do not stock. Product backorders are the total dollar value of orders received for which revenue has not yet been recognized. Pending product shipments are primarily backorders, but also include products that are requested to be calibrated in our service centers prior to shipment, orders required by the customer to be shipped complete or at a future date, and other orders awaiting final credit or management review prior to shipment. Management uses pending product shipments and backorders as measures of our future business performance and financial performance within the distribution segment.

The following table presents our total pending product shipments and the percentage of total pending product shipments that were backorders at the end of the first, ~~and~~ second and third quarter of fiscal year 2026 and each quarter of fiscal year 2025:

The ~~increase~~decrease in pending product shipments and backorders since ~~June 28~~September 27, 2025 was due in part to a one-time significant order outstanding at the end of the second quarter of fiscal year 2026.

Our Distribution gross margin includes net sales less the direct cost of inventory sold and the direct costs of equipment rental revenues, primarily depreciation expense for the fixed assets in our rental equipment pool, as well as the impact of rebates ~~and cooperative advertising income~~ we receive from vendors, freight billed to customers, freight expenses and direct shipping costs. In general, our Distribution gross margin can vary based upon the mix of products sold~~, price discounting, and the timing of periodic vendor rebates offered and cooperative advertising programs from suppliers~~.

Total operating expenses were $2325.32 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2026 versus $17.56 million during the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2025. The year-over-year increase in selling, marketing and warehouse expenses is primarily due to increased expenses related to recent acquisitions, including acquisition -related amortization expense and payroll costs. The increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily due to an increase in stock-based compensation, executive transition costs and increased payroll costs for new and acquired employees.

As a percentage of total revenue, operating expenses were 2830.30% in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2026 and 2526.83% in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2025, an increase of 23.57%.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Service Organic Revenue Growth

In addition to reporting service revenue growth, a GAAP measure, we present service organic revenue growth (current period service revenue less freight billed to customer less acquired revenue less prior period service revenue/prior period service revenue less freight billed to customer less divested revenue times 100). Acquired revenue is revenue generated from acquisitions for twelve months subsequent to the acquisition date. Divested revenue is revenue in the prior period related to businesses that were divested in the last twelve months. The Company's management believes service organic revenue growth is an important measure of operating performance because the measure provides a basis for comparison of our business operations across periods to assess core operating performance. As such, the Company uses service organic revenue growth as a measure of performance when evaluating its Service segment and as a basis for planning and forecasting.

Service organic growth is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and is not calculated through the application of GAAP. As such, it should not be considered as a substitute or alternative for the GAAP measure of net income and, therefore, should not be used in isolation of, but in conjunction with, the GAAP measure. Service organic growth, as presented, may produce results that vary from the GAAP measure and may not be comparable to a similarly defined non-GAAP measure used by other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA

In addition to reporting net income, a GAAP measure, we present Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, executive transition costs, non-cash stock compensation expense, ~~acquisition~~ gain on sale of assets, acquisition-related transaction expenses, contingent consideration, and certain other expenses), which is a non-GAAP measure. Our management believes Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of our operating performance because it allows management, investors and others to evaluate and compare the performance of our core operations from period to period by removing the impact of the capital structure (interest), tangible and intangible asset base (depreciation and amortization), taxes, stock-based compensation expense, executive transition costs and other items, which is not always commensurate with the reporting period in which it is included. As such, our management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of performance when evaluating our business segments and as a basis for planning and forecasting. Adjusted EBITDA is also commonly used by rating agencies, lenders and other parties to evaluate our credit worthiness.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and is not calculated through the application of GAAP. As such, it should not be considered as a substitute or alternative for the GAAP measure of net income and, therefore, should not be used in isolation of, but in conjunction with, the GAAP measure.

Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share

In addition to reporting Diluted Earnings Per Share, a GAAP measure, we present Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share (net income plus acquisition -related amortization expense, acquisition -related transaction expenses, ~~acquisition~~executive transition costs, acquisition-related stock-based compensation and acquisition amortization of backlog; divided by the average diluted shares outstanding during the period), which is a non-GAAP measure. Our management believes Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share is an important measure of our operating performance because it provides a basis for comparison of our business operations between current, past and future periods by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We expect that foreseeable liquidity and capital resource requirements will be met through cash and cash equivalents, anticipated cash flows from operations and borrowings from our revolving credit facility. We believe that these sources of financing will be adequate to meet our future requirements including anticipated operating expenses, capital expenditures, interest payments on our long-term debt, and planned business acquisitions. To the extent that we do not satisfy our liquidity requirements through cash and cash equivalents, anticipated cash flows from operations and borrowings from our revolving credit facility, we intend to satisfy such requirements through proceeds from the issuance of common stock.

On July 29, 2025, we entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with a group of three lenders establishing a new five-year $150.0 million secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). Borrowing options under the Credit Facility include: (i) a revolving loan option; (ii) a swingline loan option; and (iii) letters of credit, each of which is provided on a committed basis. The Credit Facility replaced the Company’s former $80.0 million credit facility (the “Replaced Facility”), which included a letter of credit subfacility of $10.0 million and our 2018 term loan, with an original principal amount of $15.0 million (the “2018 Term Loan”). We used initial borrowings under the Credit Facility to repay amounts due under the Replaced Facility, including the remaining amounts under the 2018 Term Loan, and for the acquisition of Essco.

Table of Contents

Under the Credit Agreement, we can use up to $50.0 million for acquisitions in any single fiscal year, with an exception for the Essco acquisition. In addition, we are permitted to make restricted payments up to $25.0 million in the aggregate over the term of the Credit Facility and up to $10.0 million in any single fiscal year to repurchase shares and pay dividends.

As of ~~September~~December 27, 2025, $150.0 million was available for borrowing, subject to covenant restrictions, under the Credit Facility, of which, $~~111~~99.9 million was outstanding. During the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal year 2026, we used approximately $83.0 million, drawn from the Credit Facility, for a business acquisition.

Most borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest, at our election, at a fixed base rate or the daily simple SOFR rate, plus a margin. Any swingline loan will bear interest at the fixed base rate plus a margin. The applicable margin is based on our then-current leverage ratio. Under the Credit Facility, the applicable margin was reduced for most levels of leverage ratio for comparable categories of borrowings under the Replaced Facility. The applicable margin ranges from 0.00% to 0.75% for base rate loans and 1.00% to 1.75% for SOFR loans. We will pay a commitment fee based on the daily unused amount under the Credit Facility multiplied by the applicable margin, which ranges from 0.10% to 0.20% ~~for the commitment fee~~.

The Credit Agreement has certain financial covenants with which we must comply. The leverage ratio covenant under the Credit Agreement requires us to maintain our ratio of outstanding indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA to be no greater than 3.00 to 1.00, provided that we may temporarily increase the leverage ratio covenant if we complete a material permitted acquisition under the terms of the Credit Agreement. The Company's leverage ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement, was 2.26 00 on ~~September~~December 27, 2025, compared with 0.78 on March 29, 2025. We must also maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of no less than 1.20 to 1.00. We were in compliance with all loan covenants and requirements of the Credit Agreement and the Replaced Facility, as applicable, during the first ~~six~~ nine months of fiscal year 2026.

Cash Flows: The following table is a summary of our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (dollars in thousands):

Financing Activities	$	7966,~~194~~989		$	(336,~~346~~308	)

Operating Activities: Net cash provided by operating activities was $1628.56 million during the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal year 2026 compared to $1528.84 million of net cash provided by operating activities during the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal year 2025. The ~~year-over-year increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily the result of changes in net working capital (defined as current assets less current liabilities). The~~ significant working capital fluctuations were as follows:

● Receivables: Accounts receivable and other receivables increased $3.65 million during the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal year 2026, inclusive of $2.9 million of accounts receivable acquired during the period. During the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal year 2025, accounts receivable and other receivables ~~decreased~~increased $14.71 million, inclusive of $37.17 million accounts receivable acquired during the period. The year-over-year variation reflects the Company's growth and is impacted by changes in the timing of collections.

● Inventory: Our inventory strategy includes making appropriate large quantity, high dollar purchases with key manufacturers for various reasons, including maximizing on-hand availability of key products, expanding the number of SKUs stocked in anticipation of customer demand, reducing backorders for products with long lead times and optimizing vendor purchase and sales volume discounts. As a result, inventory levels may vary from quarter-to-quarter based on the timing of these large orders in relation to our quarter end. ~~The~~Any decreases in inventory are primarily due to the timing of shipments relative to strategic inventory purchases during the periods.

● Accounts Payable: Changes in accounts payable may or may not correlate with changes in inventory balances at any given quarter end due to the timing of vendor payments for inventory, as well as the timing of payments for outsourced Service vendors. Accounts payable ~~decreased~~increased $10.67 million during the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal year 2026, inclusive of $0.2 million assumed in an acquisition during the period. Accounts payable increased $14.57 million during the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal year 2025, inclusive of $0.5 million assumed in an acquisition during the period. The variances are largely due to the timing of inventory ~~and~~purchases, capital expenditures and other payments in the respective periods.

● Accrued Compensation and Other Current Liabilities: Accrued compensation and other current liabilities include, among other things, amounts paid to employees for non-equity performance-based compensation. At the end of any particular period, the amounts accrued for such compensation may vary due to many factors including changes in expected performance levels, the performance measurement period, and timing of payments to employees. During the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal year 2026, accrued compensation and other current liabilities ~~decreased~~increased by $3.87 million, inclusive of $3.23 million of accrued compensation and other current liabilities ~~assumed~~related ~~during~~to a current year acquisition. Accrued payroll and incentives increased $2.8 million, the ~~period~~current portion of lease liabilities increased $1.3 million and accrued interest increased $0.3 million. Accrued acquisition holdbacks decreased $0.5 million, and deferred revenue decreased $0.4 million. During the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal year 2025, accrued compensation and other current liabilities decreased by $46.6 million, inclusive of $01.20 million from assumed liabilities, ~~and~~ purchase price holdbacks and contingent consideration from acquisitions. The ~~decreases~~decrease ~~are~~is largely due to the annual payment of incentive-based compensation, ~~accruals and~~ payments of acquisition -related ~~holdback~~holdbacks, and ~~accruals~~income tax payments.

Investing Activities: During the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal years 2026 and 2025, we invested $911.07 million and $710.65 million, respectively, in capital expenditures that was used primarily for customer-driven expansion of Service segment capabilities and our rental business.

During the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal years 2026 and 2025, we used $82.5 million and $1586.91 million, respectively, for business acquisitions.

Financing Activities: During the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal year 2026, net proceeds and repayments from our revolving Credit Facility was $8168.06 million, and $0.57 million in cash was generated from the issuance of common stock. In addition, we used $1.8 million for repayments of our term loan.

During the first ~~six~~ nine months of fiscal year 2025, $01.8 million in cash was generated from the issuance of common stock. In addition, we used $1.27 million for scheduled repayments of our term loan and $3.02 million for the “net” awarding of certain share awards to cover employee tax-withholding obligations for share award and stock option activity in fiscal year 2025, which are shown as a repurchase of shares of our common stock.

32 Non-GAAP Financial Measure

Table of Contents

Operating Free Cash Flow

In addition to reporting net cash from operations, a GAAP measure, we present Operating Free Cash Flow (net cash from operations less capital expenditures), which is a non-GAAP measure. The Company’s management believes Operating Free Cash Flow is an important liquidity measure that reflects the cash generated by the business, after the purchases of technology, capabilities and assets, that can then be used for, among other things, strategic acquisitions, investments in the business and funding ongoing operations.

Operating Free Cash Flow is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and is not calculated through the application of GAAP. As such, it should not be considered as a substitute or alternative for the GAAP measure of net cash from operations and, therefore, should not be used in isolation of, but in conjunction with, the GAAP measure. Operating Free Cash Flow, as presented, may produce results that vary from the GAAP measure and may not be comparable to a similarly defined non-GAAP measure used by other companies.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

INTEREST RATES

Our exposure to changes in interest rates results from our borrowing activities. In the event interest rates were to move by 1%, our yearly interest expense would increase or decrease by approximately $1.10 million assuming our borrowing levels at ~~September~~December 27, 2025 remained constant under the Credit Facility. As of ~~September~~December 27, 2025, $150.0 million was available for borrowing, under the Credit Facility, of which $~~111~~99.9 million was outstanding.

Under the Credit Agreement, effective as of July 29, 2025, at our option, we are permitted to borrow from the Credit Facility at a base rate or the variable Daily Simple SOFR (subject to a 1.00% floor), in each case, plus a margin. Our interest rate margin is determined on a quarterly basis based upon our calculated leverage ratio. Our weighted average interest rate for the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal year 2026 for the Credit Facility was 65.07%. On ~~September~~December 27, 2025, we had no hedging arrangements in place for our Credit Facility to limit our exposure to movements in interest rates.

FOREIGN CURRENCY

Approximately 9093% and 92% of our total revenues for ~~each of~~ the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal year 2026 and 2025, respectively were denominated in U.S. dollars, with the remainder denominated in Canadian dollars and Euros. A 10% change in the value of the Canadian dollar to the U.S. dollar and the Euro to the U.S. dollar would impact our revenue by less than 1%. We monitor the relationship between the U.S. dollar and the Canadian dollar and the U.S. dollar and the Euro on a monthly basis and adjust sales prices for products and services sold in Canadian dollars or Euros as we believe to be appropriate.

We utilized ~~continually utilize~~ short-term foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce the risk that future earnings denominated in Canadian dollars would be adversely affected by changes in currency exchange rates. We do did not apply hedge accounting and therefore the net change in the fair value of the contracts, which totaled a loss of less than $0.21 million and a gain of $0.4 2 million in the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal years 2026 and 2025, respectively, was recognized as a component of Interest and Other (Income) Expense, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The change in the fair value of the contracts is offset by the change in fair value on the underlying accounts receivables denominated in Canadian dollars being hedged. On September 27, 2025, we had a foreign exchange contract, which matured in October 2025, outstanding in the notional amount of $0.6 million. The foreign exchange contract was renewed in October 2025 and continues to be in place. We do not use hedging arrangements for speculative purposes.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our principal executive officer and principal financial officer to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of such date.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. ~~There~~The ~~has~~Company's internal controls over financial reporting included those inherited from the Martin acquisition, which have been noevaluated ~~change~~by inmanagement and supplemented where deemed appropriate.
