FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Astronics Corporation Reports Record Aerospace Segment Sales in 2025 Second Quarter

•Second quarter sales increased 3.3% to $204.7 million driven by Aerospace growth of 9.4% to a record $193.6 million

•Second quarter net income was $1.3 million, or $0.04 per diluted share; adjusted EBITDA1 was $25.4 million, or 12.4% of sales

•Aerospace operating margin was 9.3% including investments in simplification initiatives and legal fee reimbursement; adjusted operating margin1 was 16.3%

•Test Systems restructuring cost savings masked by $6.9 million impact to profitability from estimated cost to complete adjustments

•Solid quarterly bookings of $177.0 million and backlog of $645.4 million

•Raised lower end of revenue guidance to range of $840 million to $860 million for 2025

EAST AURORA, NY, August 6, 2025 – Astronics Corporation (Nasdaq: ATRO) (“Astronics” or the “Company”), a leading supplier of advanced technologies and products to the global aerospace, defense, and other mission critical industries, today reported financial results for the three and six months ended June 28, 2025.

Peter J. Gundermann, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We had a very solid second quarter and demonstrated continued progress as revenue stabilizes above $200 million per quarter. We also took some actions that will improve our future earnings power. After a company-wide review of our product portfolio, we took the action to step away from a couple of product lines that have proven to be low margin and low growth. We also took a meaningful increase in our estimate to complete for some projects in our Test business, which masked the progress we have made restructuring that business in recent quarters. These actions will allow us to simplify our business and focus on efforts that promise the greatest returns. Combined with the supportive market conditions we are experiencing, we believe we are well positioned for the future as we look to finish strong in 2025 and beyond.”

1 Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, and adjusted operating margin are Non-GAAP financial measures. Please see the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in the tables that accompany this release.

Second Quarter 2025 Results (compared with the prior-year period, unless noted otherwise)

Growth in sales was driven by the Aerospace segment’s continued strength in demand primarily from the Commercial Transport market. Aerospace sales increased $16.7 million, or 9.4%, which more than offset a $10.1 million decline in Test Systems sales. Consolidated sales were negatively impacted by $6.4 million due to revisions of estimated costs to complete certain long-term mass transit contracts in the Test Systems segment.

Gross profit decreased $2.7 million to $52.8 million, or 25.8% of sales. As noted above, a revision of estimated costs to complete certain long-term mass transit contracts in the Test Systems segment resulted in a $6.9 million impact on gross profit. Additionally, simplification initiatives in the Aerospace segment, including costs related to footprint rationalization and product portfolio shaping activities, resulted in $5.8 million in charges within cost of products sold during the quarter. Adjusted gross profit2 for the 2025 second quarter was $59.7 million, or 29.2% of sales, an improvement over 28.0% in the comparator quarter, primarily attributable to higher volume and improving productivity.

In the second quarter of 2025, the $2.7 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) included a $3.5 million legal fee reimbursement charge relating to the patent infringement dispute in the UK, partially offset by a $1.7 million decrease in litigation-related legal expenses. R&D was down $2.6 million reflecting the timing of projects.

Consolidated operating income decreased $2.8 million to $4.8 million, or 2.3% of sales. The impact of the revision of estimated costs on operating income was $6.9 million. Adjusted operating income2 for the 2025 second quarter was $18.3 million, or 8.9% of sales, compared with $12.6 million, or 6.4% of sales, in the 2024 second quarter, which represents margin gain on increased volume and improved productivity in the Aerospace segment, coupled with realized savings from the recent Test Systems cost rationalization activities. The revision of estimated costs were not included as an add back for adjusted operating income2.

As a result of the refinancing in December 2024, interest expense was down $2.8 million, or 47.1%. Tax expense in the quarter was $0.5 million compared with a tax benefit of $0.3 million in the prior-year period.

2 Adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating income, adjusted segment operating profit, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) are Non-GAAP financial measures. Please see the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in the tables that accompany this release.

Consolidated net income of $1.3 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, compares with net income of $1.5 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, in the prior-year period. Adjusted net income2 for the 2025 second quarter increased $6.5 million to $13.7 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, resulting from stronger profitability and lower interest expense.

Consolidated adjusted EBITDA2 increased 25.5% to $25.4 million, and was 12.4% of consolidated sales.

Bookings of $177.0 million in the quarter resulted in a book-to-bill ratio of 0.86:1. For the trailing twelve months, bookings totaled $841.8 million and the book-to-bill ratio was 1.02:1. Backlog at the end of the quarter was $645.4 million.

Aerospace Segment Review (refer to sales by market and segment data in accompanying tables)

Aerospace Second Quarter 2025 Results (compared with the prior-year period, unless noted otherwise)

Record Aerospace segment sales of $193.6 million increased $16.7 million, or 9.4%. Sales in the Commercial Transport market increased $17.2 million, or 13.4%. Growth was primarily related to increased demand by airlines for cabin power and inflight entertainment & connectivity (“IFEC”) products. Military Aircraft sales increased $2.7 million, or 10.7%, to $27.4 million, driven by increased demand for lighting and safety products. General Aviation sales decreased $0.6 million, or 3.4%, to $18.4 million due to lower airframe power sales. Other sales decreased $2.5 million as the Company is winding down its non-core contract manufacturing arrangements.

Aerospace segment operating profit of $18.0 million, or 9.3% of sales, decreased over the prior-year period as a result of the previously discussed $6.2 million charge related to simplification initiatives, a $3.5 million legal fee reimbursement charge related to the UK patent dispute, and a $1.0 million warranty expense true-up related to a new product launch that requires a field modification. These were partially offset by a $1.5 million decrease in litigation-related expenses. Adjusted Aerospace operating profit2 was $31.5 million, or 16.3% of sales, up 300 basis points from the comparator quarter, reflecting the leverage gained on higher volume, pricing initiatives, and improving production efficiencies.

Aerospace bookings were $150.6 million for a book-to-bill ratio of 0.78:1. Backlog for the Aerospace segment was $570.9 million at quarter end.

Mr. Gundermann commented, “Excluding the unusual items in the quarter, our Aerospace business had a strong second quarter. Sales hit a new record and adjusted operating margin2 showed consistent improvement. The reserves we took are the result of a determined focus on those business initiatives that are most important to our future, which we believe continues to look very positive.”

Test Systems Segment Review (refer to sales by market and segment data in accompanying tables)

Test Systems Second Quarter 2025 Results (compared with the prior-year period, unless noted otherwise)

Test Systems segment sales were $11.1 million, down $10.1 million from the comparator quarter in 2024. Segment sales were negatively impacted by $6.4 million due to revisions of estimated costs to complete certain long-term mass transit Test contracts. The revisions resulted in reduced revenue recognized in the respective periods due to lower estimates of the percentage of work completed on the programs.

Test Systems segment operating loss was $6.7 million, compared with an operating loss of $5.3 million in the second quarter of 2024. The revisions to the estimated costs to complete had a $6.9 million detrimental impact to operating income and masked the savings realized from recent restructuring activities. While Test Systems continues to be negatively affected by mix and under absorption of fixed costs at current volume levels, the second half of 2025 is expected to be improved for revenue and operating income despite a six-to-eight-week delay in a U.S. Army radio test program.

Bookings for the Test Systems segment in the quarter were $26.4 million. The book-to-bill ratio was 2.39:1 for the quarter. Backlog for the Test Systems segment was $74.5 million at quarter end.

Mr. Gundermann commented, “We initiated a deep dive into some of our major long term Test programs in the second quarter and concluded the EAC adjustment was appropriate at this time. The deep dive will continue into the third quarter but we expect we have adequately captured the situation as it stands today. The EAC adjustment unfortunately masks the benefit of certain restructuring steps we have taken in recent quarters. With the EAC adjustment behind us, we believe the business is positioned for a stronger close to 2025 with accelerating momentum as we look forward to 2026.”

Liquidity and Financing

Cash used by operations in the second quarter of 2025 was $7.6 million after $21.6 million in payments related to the UK patent dispute and $12.0 million in net income tax payments.

Capital expenditures in the quarter were $4.6 million. Long-term debt, net of cash, decreased $4.4 million to $145.8 million at quarter end compared with $150.2 million at the end of the year. The Company had available liquidity of $191.3 million at the end of the second quarter.

2025 Outlook

Astronics is raising the lower end of its 2025 revenue guidance to approximately $840 million to $860 million, up from previous guidance of $820 million to $860 million. The midpoint of the revised range would be a 6.9% increase over 2024 sales.

The Company is monitoring the evolving tariff situation closely. Astronics generates approximately 90% of its revenue from operations in the United States, though it has an international supply chain and a global list of customers. Based on the tariff rates in effect today, Astronics believes the potential incremental impact to annual costs of materials related to direct and known indirect effects is in the range of $15 million to $20 million before mitigation. The Company believes that certain actions including pass-through pricing, supply chain restructuring, duty drawbacks, the implementation of free trade zones, and other operational adjustments will significantly reduce the anticipated impacts of tariffs over time. The Company expects that tariff rates will remain in flux in the near future and will refine its strategy as the situation becomes more stable.

Backlog at the end of the second quarter was $645.4 million, of which approximately 75% is expected to be recognized as revenue over the next twelve months. Planned capital expenditures in 2025 are expected to be in the range of $40 million to $50 million.

Mr. Gundermann commented, “The first half of 2025 was very positive for our Company and we believe activity will accelerate as we move into the second half of the year. The production phase of our Radio Test Program for the U.S. Army may slide into early 2026, but our aerospace business is accelerating more than enough to compensate. We are raising our 2025 revenue guidance accordingly by $10 million at the mid-point. Our business continues to strengthen, including the efficiency of our work force and the dependability of our supply chain, and we have a near-record backlog. The signs are positive as we work toward the end of the year.”

5 In the first quarter 2024, it was assumed that annual incentive compensation would be paid in stock, and thus such amount ($1.4 million) was presented as an addback for Adjusted EBITDA purposes. In the fourth quarter of 2024, it was concluded that all annual incentive compensation amounts would be paid in cash, and thus the addback for the full year 2024 was eliminated. For comparative purposes, the addback was retrospectively removed from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 29, 2024.
