Item 2.02.  Results of Operations and Financial Condition
 
On May 5, 2021, Mistras Group, Inc. (the “Company,” “we” or “us”) issued a press release announcing the financial results for our first quarter of 2021, which ended March 31, 2021. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.

Disclosure of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In the press release attached, the Company uses the terms “Adjusted EBITDA,” “free cash flow,” "net debt" and “operating income before special items,” which are not measures of financial performance under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). In the tables to the press release, these non-GAAP financial measures and the non-GAAP financial measures "Segment and Total Company Income before Special Items” and "Diluted EPS excluding Special Items", are presented and reconciled to financial measures under GAAP. Information about these non-GAAP measures are included in the press release.

Our management uses these non-GAAP measurements as a measure of operating performance and liquidity to assist in comparing performance from period to period on a consistent basis, as a measure for planning and forecasting overall expectations and for evaluating actual results against such expectations. Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow are also performance evaluation metrics used to determine incentive compensation for executive officers.

We believe that investors and other users of the financial statements benefit from the presentation of these non-GAAP measurements because they provide additional metrics to compare the Company's operating performance and liquidity on a consistent basis and measure underlying trends and results of the Company's business. Adjusted EBITDA and Segment and Total Company Income before Special Items assist in evaluating our operating performance because they remove the impact of certain items that management believes do not directly reflect our core operations. For instance, Adjusted EBITDA generally excludes interest expense, taxes and depreciation and amortization, each of which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods and the book value and age of assets, capital structure, capital investment cycles and the method by which assets were acquired. It also eliminates stock-based compensation, which is a non-cash expense and is excluded by management when evaluating the underlying performance of our business operations.

Our management uses free cash flow when evaluating the performance of our business operations. This measurement also takes into account cash used to purchase fixed assets needed for business operations which are not expensed. We believe this measurement provides an additional tool to compare cash generated by our operations on a consistent basis and measure underlying trends and results in our business.
While Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow are terms and financial measurements commonly used by investors and securities analysts, they have limitations. As non-GAAP measurements, Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flows have no standard meaning and, therefore, may not be comparable with similar measurements for other companies. Similarly, segment and total company income before special items and diluted EPS excluding special items has no standard meaning and may not be comparable to measurements for other companies. Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow are generally limited as analytical tools because they exclude charges and expenses we do incur as part of our operations as well as cash uses which are included in a GAAP cash flow statement. In addition, free cash flow does not represent residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures since items such as debt repayments are not deducted in determining such measurement.

None of these non-GAAP financial measurements should be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyzing our results as reported under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

MISTRAS Group Announces First Quarter 2021 Results

Revenue in Line with Outlook and on Track for Significant Improvement over remainder of Fiscal 2021
Continued Gross Margin Expansion - Gross Profit Margin up 50 basis points
Strong Expense Discipline - Selling, General and Administrative expenses decrease by 4.6%
Profitability Improves - Net loss decreased to $5.4 million, with Adjusted EBITDA up 30.2% to $7.0 million

PRINCETON JUNCTION, N.J., May 5, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - MISTRAS Group, Inc. (MG: NYSE), a leading "one source" global multinational provider of integrated technology-enabled asset protection solutions, reported financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2021.

Highlights of the First Quarter 2021*
Revenue of $153.8 million, up in Energy, Other Process Industries and Infrastructure markets
Gross profit margin was maintained or improved across all three segments
Services segment operating income of $4.5 million; non-GAAP of $6.5 million, an increase of 55.6%.
Operating cash flow of $3.1 million

* All comparisons are consolidated and versus the equivalent prior year period, unless otherwise noted.

For the first quarter of 2021, consolidated revenue was $153.8 million compared to $159.5 million in the prior year period, a decrease of 3.6%, which was consistent with the Company’s outlook. Revenues in the Energy markets (Oil and Gas and Power Generation) improved modestly from a year ago, despite COVID-19 related headwinds for the entire current quarter, in contrast to only a partial-month impact in the prior year period, as well as the previously disclosed disruption caused by severe weather in the Gulf. Other Process Industries and Infrastructure markets were also all up over the prior year. This stability across a majority of markets was offset by weakness in the commercial Aerospace market as well as in the Industrial/Manufacturing market.

After expanding by over 100 basis points in each of the last three years, gross profit margin expansion continued into 2021. First quarter consolidated gross profit margin expanded 50 basis points to 26.0%, reflecting continuing productivity and efficiency improvements. For the first quarter of 2021, the Company reported a net loss of $5.4 million or $0.18 per share, with adjusted EBITDA of $7.0 million, up 30.2% from $5.4 year million in the year ago quarter.

Chief Executive Officer Dennis Bertolotti commented, "The first quarter of 2021 was as expected, down modestly from the prior year in what has historically been our seasonally weakest quarter. In Energy, we overcame a number of challenges to match last year’s primarily pre-COVID-19 financial results. Among the challenges was a Spring turnaround season which got off to a later than usual start. However, based on the meaningful increase in hours billed in the month of April, we believe turnaround activity is improving, which should drive year-over-year growth in our Energy revenues over the balance of 2021. Domestically, our defense and space sectors are continuing to grow, offsetting weakness in the global commercial aerospace market. Our Products segment also had another strong revenue quarter, fueled primarily by an increase in Infrastructure spending. Consolidated gross profit margin was up over last year, despite the decline in our more profitable Aerospace revenue and the under absorption of costs caused by overall lower revenue. Gross profit margin expansion remains a key priority for MISTRAS. Additionally, we remained intensely focused on expense controls, as evidenced by our overhead costs being down nearly 5% in the first quarter. This area will be a key focus for senior management, as we plan to rebound back to our pre-



COVID-19 revenue volume level by the end of 2021, utilizing the efficiencies and productivity lessons learned throughout the pandemic while working in remote/virtual mode, particularly within our support functions.”

Mr. Bertolotti additionally commented on the Company’s progress with its growth initiatives and provided an outlook for the upcoming quarter, “The global pandemic has highlighted our ability to quickly adapt to a very dynamic environment and the attractive cash generating nature of our asset light business model. It has accelerated our development of new data tools and a more technology driven strategy, provided a roadmap to capitalize on the rapid growth of the alternative energy markets and led to an expansion of our aerospace operations into the adjacent defense and private space flight markets. Each of these new markets represents tremendous growth potential in which we can offer high value services that generate attractive returns. I believe the second quarter will reflect our progress in each of these areas, as well as an expanding recovery in the energy market. In addition to the restoration of top line growth, we anticipate that our ongoing disciplined expense management will enable us to leverage this growth into even better bottom line performance over the remainder of 2021. Our customers in both the aerospace and energy markets are looking for more nimble and integrated providers, who can adapt to the new market; something MISTRAS has been focusing on for years and is uniquely qualified to achieve. Although the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact our domestic and international operations, our plans for Mistras’ evolution into the future make us very optimistic for a strong rebound throughout 2021.”

Segment Performance:

Services segment first quarter revenues were $124.3 million, down 3.6% from prior year, primarily the result of the impact of COVID-19, which disrupted the timing of certain projects, particularly in the Aerospace and Industrials markets. For the first quarter, gross profit margin was 25.0%, consistent with the prior year. Services operating income was $4.5 million, or $6.5 million on a non-GAAP basis which was up 55.6% over prior year.

International segment first quarter revenues were $27.6 million, down 4.9% from $29.1 million a year ago, primarily due to organic declines in the Aerospace market, partially offset by favorable foreign exchange. International segment first quarter gross profit margin was 27.6%, consistent with the prior year.

Products and Systems segment revenues were $3.0 million in the first quarter, up 6.3% from a year ago, while gross profit was $1.3 million, or 42.9% compared to gross profit of $0.4 million or 13.1% in the year ago quarter. These strong improvements were attributable to organic revenue gains in the Infrastructure market and improved operational efficiency.

The Company generated $3.1 million of cash flow from operations in the first quarter of 2021, compared with $6.1 million in the same period last year. This decrease was attributable to adverse changes in working capital.

The Company’s net debt (total debt less cash and cash equivalents) was $198.1 million at March 31, 2021, compared to $194.5 million at December 31, 2020. Total debt increased by $2.1 million during the first quarter 2021 from $220.2 million at December 31, 2020 to $222.3 million at March 31, 2021. The current quarter borrowing was used to fund the increase in working capital, primarily attributable to an increase in accounts receivable.

Outlook for 2021

The Company’s business has been recovering over the past three quarters, from the low experienced in the second quarter of 2020, when the effect of COVID-19 was most impactful to its financial results. Although energy prices and demand are currently stable, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact the Company’s two largest markets, Oil & Gas and Aerospace. Despite this adverse and ongoing impact, the Company expects annual revenue for 2021 to be higher than in 2020. In addition to the restoration of top line growth, the Company anticipates that its ongoing disciplined expense management will enable it to leverage this revenue growth into significantly improved bottom line performance over the remainder of 2021. The Company anticipates that its quarterly revenue will reflect year-on-year improvement commencing in the second quarter of 2021, with revenue expected to increase as much as in the low to mid-thirty percent range, over the second quarter of 2020. The Company also anticipates that Adjusted EBITDA will expand at a much greater rate in the second quarter of 2021 than it had in the first quarter of 2021, given the significantly higher level of operating leverage that would accompany the expected revenue growth.

Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements

Certain statements made in this press release are "forward-looking statements" about MISTRAS' financial results and estimates, products and services, business model, strategy, growth opportunities, profitability and competitive position, and other matters. These forward-looking statements generally use words such as "future," "possible," "potential," "targeted," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "plan," "predict," "project," "will," "may," "should," "could," "would" and other similar words and phrases. Such statements are not guarantees of future performance or results, and will not necessarily be accurate indications of the times at, or by which, such performance or results will be achieved, if at all. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in these statements. A list, description and discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties can be found in the "Risk Factors" section of the Company's 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K dated March 16, 2021, as updated by our reports on Form 10-Q and Form 8-K. The forward-looking statements are made as of the date hereof, and MISTRAS undertakes no obligation to update such statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to financial information prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (GAAP), this press release also contains financial measures not determined in accordance with GAAP, that we believe provide investors and management with supplemental information relating to operating performance and trends that facilitate comparisons between periods and with respect to projected information. The term "Adjusted EBITDA" used in this release is a financial measurement not calculated in accordance with GAAP and is defined as net income attributable to MISTRAS Group, Inc. plus: interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation expense, certain acquisition related costs (including transaction due diligence costs and adjustments to the fair value of contingent consideration), foreign exchange (gain) loss, non-cash impairment charges and, if applicable, certain additional special items which are noted. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to a financial measurement under GAAP is set forth in a table attached to this press release. In the press release, the Company also uses the term "non-GAAP Operating Income", which is GAAP Operating Income adjusted for certain items management believes are unusual and non-recurring. There is a table reconciling (GAAP) Operating Income to (non-GAAP) Operating Income before special items. The Company uses the term “free cash flow”, a non-GAAP measurement the Company defines as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures (which is classified as an investing activity). The Company also uses the term “net debt”, a non-GAAP measurement defined as the sum of the current and long-term portions of long-term debt, less cash and cash equivalent. In the tables attached is a table reconciling "Net Income (Loss) (GAAP)" to "Net Income Excluding Special Items (non-GAAP), which reconciles the non-GAAP amount to a GAAP measurement. In addition, the Company has also included in the attached tables non-GAAP



measurement” “Segment and Total Company Income (Loss) Before Special Items”, reconciling these measurements to financial measurements under GAAP.
