Mistras reports Q2 adjusted EPS 21c, consensus 13c

Reports Q2 revenue $189.77M, consensus $185.8M. Manny Stamatakis, interim CEO commented, “our second quarter results continued the positive momentum generated over the past three quarters and we once again delivered strong top and bottom-line growth for Mistras Group. Revenue was up nearly 8% compared to the prior year period, consistent with our expectations for double digit growth in our Aerospace and Defense industry and resilient growth across all other industries. Adjusted EBITDA was up nearly 45% compared to the prior year period, reflecting significant improvement in our operating leverage as a result of our operational and strategic initiatives. I am particularly enthused with the continued progress achieved by our enhanced Commercial function, led by our Chief Commercial Officer Gennaro “Jerry” D’Alterio, which was implemented late in 2023. This enhanced Commercial function has helped refine our go-to-market approach, pricing strategies, contract management, and other key initiatives which have provided a meaningful benefit to our operations. I am also excited for the renewed level of cost discipline under the direction of our Chief Transformation Officer, Hani Hammad, who was hired late in the first quarter of 2024 and who is creating strategies for on-going cost monitoring to further improve our operating leverage.”
