“We delivered strong third quarter financial results, with record quarterly revenue and adjusted EBITDA,” said Carey Smith, chair, president, and chief executive officer. “We are executing against our strategy and benefiting from our portfolio that is well-aligned to important macroenvironment trends in two well-funded and growing markets. We will continue to invest in our people and technologies to drive future shareholder value.”

Third Quarter 2022 Results

Year-over-Year Comparisons (Q3 2022 vs. Q3 2021)

Total revenue for the third quarter of 2022 increased by $178 million, or 19%, to $1,134 million. This increase was primarily driven by organic growth of 11% due to the ramp-up of work on existing and new contracts and strong hiring. The company’s Xator acquisition contributed approximately $71 million of revenue in the third quarter of 2022. Operating income increased 61% to $64 million primarily due to strong revenue growth while managing costs, lower acquisition amortization expenses, and contributions from Xator. Net income increased 53% to $30 million. GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS) attributable to Parsons was $0.27 in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $0.18 in the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA including noncontrolling interests for the third quarter of 2022 was $103 million, an 22% increase over the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 9.1% in the third quarter of 2022, compared to 8.8% in the third quarter of 2021. Adjusted EPS was $0.48 in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $0.44 in the third quarter of 2021. The year-over-year adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS increases were driven primarily by strong operating leverage and contributions from Xator.

Third quarter 2022 revenue increased $121 million, or 24%, compared to the prior year period due to organic growth of 10% and approximately $71 million from Xator. Organic revenue growth was primarily driven by increased activity on existing contracts and the ramp-up of recent contract awards.

Third quarter 2022 Federal Solutions adjusted EBITDA including noncontrolling interests increased by $15 million, or 31%. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 9.9% from 9.3% in the prior year period. These increases were driven primarily by strong revenue growth while continuing to control costs.

Fiscal Year 2022 Guidance

The company is increasing the midpoints of its fiscal year 2022 revenue, adjusted EBITDA and cash flow guidance ranges to reflect its strong third quarter operating performance and its outlook for the remainder of the year. The table below summarizes the company’s fiscal year 2022 guidance.

Current Fiscal Year<br><br><br>2022 Guidance Prior Fiscal Year<br><br><br>2022 Guidance
Revenue $4.05 billion - $4.20 billion $3.95 billion - $4.15 billion
Adjusted EBITDA including non-controlling interest $340 million - $360 million $330 million - $360 million
Cash Flow from Operating Activities $255 million - $275 million $240 million - $280 million

Net income guidance is not presented as the company believes volatility associated with interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and other matters affecting net income, including but not limited to one-time and nonrecurring events and impact of M&A, will preclude the company from providing accurate net income guidance for fiscal year 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

The tables under "Parsons Corporation Inc. Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures" present Adjusted Net Income attributable to Parsons Corporation, Adjusted Earnings per Share, Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (“EBITDA”), Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, reconciled to their most directly comparable GAAP measure. These financial measures are calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("Non-GAAP Measures"). Parsons has provided these Non-GAAP Measures to adjust for, among other things, the impact of amortization expenses related to our acquisitions, costs associated with a loss or gain on the disposal or sale of property, plant

and equipment, restructuring and related expenses, costs associated with mergers and acquisitions, software implementation costs, legal and settlement costs, and other costs considered non-operational in nature. These items have been Adjusted because they are not considered core to the company’s business or otherwise not considered operational or because these charges are non-cash or non-recurring. The company presents these Non-GAAP Measures because management believes that they are meaningful to understanding Parsons’s performance during the periods presented and the company’s ongoing business. Non-GAAP Measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and therefore are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled metrics or the financial results of other companies. These Non-GAAP Measures should be considered a supplement to, not a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
