Transcat, Inc. (Nasdaq: TRNS) (“Transcat” or the “Company”), a leader in test measurement, control and calibration, has reported its financial and operational results for its fiscal third quarter ended December 27, 2025 (the “third quarter”) of fiscal year 2026.

Management Commentary

"Transcat delivered strong performance across our entire business portfolio in the fiscal third quarter highlighted by 7% service organic revenue growth*,” commented Lee D. Rudow, President and CEO. “Distribution revenue grew 20% in the quarter with gross margin expansion of 330bps versus the prior year driven by the continued strategic mix increase of higher-margin rentals. Our talented team’s execution paired with robust revenue growth enabled us to deliver 27% adjusted EBITDA* growth.

"Service revenue was up 29% driven by our differentiated value proposition, continued successful integration and performance of acquired companies, and consistent demand in highly regulated end markets which include life sciences, aerospace & defense, and energy. As expected, service organic revenue returned to more historic levels of growth in the fiscal third quarter. Overall, we are encouraged by our total gross margin profile versus prior year, but we did experience a lag with service gross margins in the third quarter as we incurred start-up costs related to the onboarding of new customers, which we expect to normalize.

"Looking forward, we are optimistic given the momentum building in our service segment driven by strong retention, increased customer activity levels, and realization of new business wins. We expect continued high single-digit service organic revenue growth for the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2026, barring any increased economic uncertainty. We believe our strong value proposition along with the recent acquisitions of premier service calibration companies that expand our geographical footprint positions us well to drive sustainable, long-term shareholder value,” concluded Mr. Rudow.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2026 Review

(Results are compared with the third quarter of the fiscal year ended March 29, 2025 (“fiscal 2025”))

Consolidated revenue was $83.9 million, an increase of $17.1 million or 25.6%, driven by growth in both service and distribution segments. Consolidated gross profit was $25.3 million, an increase of $5.6 million, or 28.3%, while gross margin increased 60bps when compared to the prior year period.

Operating expenses were $25.2 million, an increase of $7.6 million, or 43.2%, driven by incremental expenses from acquired businesses, including intangible assets amortization expense, increased stock-based compensation expense, executive transition costs and higher sales-based incentives.

Net loss was $1.1 million, and Adjusted EBITDA* was $10.1 million, which represented an increase of $2.2 million or 27.2%, driven by strong revenue growth. Loss per diluted share was $(0.12) compared to earnings per diluted share of $0.25 last year. Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share* were $0.26 versus $0.45 last year.

Service segment third quarter results

Represents the accredited calibration, repair, inspection and laboratory instrument services business (64.0% of total revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2026).

Service segment revenue was $53.7 million, an increase of $12.1 million or 29.1%, and included $9.0 million of incremental revenue from acquisitions. The segment gross margin was 28.8%, a decrease of 90bps from the prior year.

Distribution segment third quarter results

Represents the sale and rental of new and used professional grade handheld test, measurement and control instrumentation (36.0% of total revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2026).

Distribution segment revenue was $30.2 million, which represented an increase of $5.0 million or 19.8%. Distribution segment gross margin was 32.4%, an increase of 330 bps. Revenue and gross margin increases are primarily due to a favorable sales mix driven by rentals.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Overview

On December 27, 2025, the Company had $3.5 million in cash and cash equivalents on hand and $50.1 million available for borrowing, subject to covenant restrictions, under its secured revolving credit facility. Net cash provided by operations for the nine months ended December 2025 and December 2024 was $28.6 million and $28.4 million, respectively. Operating free cash flow* for the nine months ended December 2025 and December 2024 was $16.9 million and $17.9 million, respectively.

Total debt as of December 27, 2025 was $99.9 million versus $32.7 million on March 29, 2025. On July 29, 2025, Transcat announced a new 5-Year $150 million syndicated secured credit facility with M&T Bank and included additional lenders Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and Bank of America, replacing its existing $80 million credit facility with M&T and payoff of the term debt. The Company’s leverage ratio, as defined in the credit agreement, was 2.00 on December 27, 2025, compared with 0.78 on March 29, 2025.

Tom Barbato, Transcat’s Chief Financial Officer, added, “Third quarter adjusted EBITDA* grew 27% as both segments experienced double-digit revenue growth. The growth in adjusted EBITDA and associated margin enabled Transcat to continue a sequential reduction in our leverage ratio. We believe we are well-positioned to grow both organically and through acquisition.”

NOTE 1 – Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to reporting service revenue growth, a U.S. generally accepted accounting principle ("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.

In addition to reporting net income and net margin, GAAP measures, we present Adjusted Net Income (net income plus acquisition related amortization expense, acquisition related transaction expenses, acquisition related stock-based compensation, executive transition costs, and acquisition amortization of backlog) and Adjusted net margin (Adjusted Net Income divided by revenue), which are non-GAAP measures. The Company’s management believes Adjusted net income and Adjusted net margin are important measures of operating performance because the measures provide 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. As such, the Company uses Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted net margin as measures of performance when evaluating its business segments and as a basis for planning and forecasting.

In addition to reporting net income and net margin, GAAP measures, we present Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock compensation expense, executive transition costs, gain on sale of assets and acquisition related transaction expenses) and Adjusted EBITDA margin (Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue), which are non-GAAP measures. The Company’s management believes Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are important measures of operating performance because the measures allow management, investors and others to evaluate and compare the performance of its 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, gain on sale of assets and other items, which is not always commensurate with the reporting period in which it is included. As such, the Company uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as measures of performance and as a basis for planning and forecasting.

In addition to reporting operating income, a GAAP measure, we present Adjusted Operating Income (operating income plus depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock compensation expense, acquisition related transaction expenses, executive transition costs, and contingent consideration adjustments), which is a non-GAAP measure. The Company’s management believes Adjusted Operating Income is an important measure of operating performance because it allows management, investors and others to evaluate and compare the performance of its core operations from period to period by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. As such, the Company uses Adjusted Operating Income as a measure of performance when evaluating its business segments.

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 related stock-based compensation, executive transition costs, 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.

In addition to reporting cash from operations, a GAAP measure, we present Operating Free Cash Flow (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 be used for, among other things, strategic acquisitions, investments in the business and funding ongoing operations. As such, the Company uses Operating Free Cash Flow as a measure of performance when evaluating its business.

Service Organic Growth Revenue, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share, and Operating Free Cash Flow are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and are not calculated through the application of GAAP. As such, the measures should not be considered as a substitute or alternative for the GAAP measures of Service Revenue Growth, Net Income, Operating Income, Diluted Earnings Per Share, and Net Cash provided by Operations and, therefore, should not be used in isolation of, but in conjunction with, the related GAAP measures. Service Organic Revenue Growth, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share, and Operating Free Cash Flow as presented, may produce results that vary from the related GAAP measure and may not be comparable to similarly defined non-GAAP measures used by other companies. See pages 12-16 for the reconciliation tables.
