Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
Novanta Inc. (“Novanta” or the “Company”) revised certain fourth quarter and full year 2025 financial guidance to reflect the completion of the recent equity issuance. The updated non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share (“Adjusted Diluted EPS”) guidance for the fourth quarter and full year 2025 is $0.84 to $0.91 and $3.21 to $3.28, respectively. The prior Adjusted Diluted EPS guidance for the fourth quarter and full year 2025 was $0.87 to $0.93 and $3.24 to $3.30, respectively.
The fourth quarter and full year 2025 guidance reflects a weighted average diluted shares outstanding share impact in an expected range between 2.5 million and 2.6 million and 0.6 million and 0.7 million shares, respectively. The full year 2026 diluted shares outstanding impact is estimated between 4.7 million and 5.9 million shares.
There is no change to our GAAP revenue guidance for the fourth quarter and full year 2025 of $253 million to $257 million and $975 million to $979 million, respectively; and there is no change to our Adjusted EBITDA guidance for the fourth quarter and full year 2025 of $62 million to $65 million and $222 million to $225 million, respectively.
Non-GAAP Information
Novanta provides earnings guidance on a non-GAAP basis and does not provide earnings guidance on a GAAP basis, with the exception of GAAP revenue guidance. A reconciliation of the Company’s forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Diluted EPS guidance to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is not provided because of the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations, including acquisitions and related expenses; impact of purchase price allocations for recently completed acquisitions; future changes in the fair value of contingent considerations; future restructuring expenses; foreign exchange gains/(losses); significant discrete income tax expenses (benefits); benefits or expenses associated with the completion of tax audits; divestitures and related expenses; gains and losses from sale of real estate assets; costs related to product line closures; intangible asset impairment charges and related asset write-offs; and other charges reflected in the Company’s reconciliation of historical non-GAAP financial measures, the amounts of which, based on past experience, could be material.
