Net Income of $6.5 million or $0.21 per diluted share, up 68.4% and 61.5%, respectively

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

** Foreign currency exchange impact is calculated by converting current period financial results in local currency, using the prior period exchange rates, and comparing this amount to the current period financial results in local currency using the current period exchange rate.

For the fourth quarter of 2022 consolidated revenue was 168.2 million, a 1.7% decline, yet an 0.8% increase excluding the impact of unfavorable foreign currency exchange of $4.4 million. Fourth quarter 2022 gross profit increased 2.7% as compared to the year ago period, primarily due to lower employee benefit expenses and an improved sales mix in the current year. Selling, general and administrative expenses in the fourth quarter of 2022 were $42.3 million, down from $42.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, reflecting the continued emphasis on cost discipline.

For the full year, revenue of $687.4 increased 1.5% as reported, yet an increase of 3.7% excluding the impact of unfavorable foreign currency exchange of $15.2 million. Revenue growth reflects continued recovery in the Company's primary end markets, with as reported Oil and Gas revenue up 5.7% and Aerospace and Defense revenue up 17.8%. For the full year 2022, gross profit increased $1.0 million, with gross profit margin of 28.8% compared to 29.1% in the prior year. On a full year basis in 2022, selling, general and administrative expenses were up just 3.3%, despite the prior year benefiting from temporary COVID-19 cost reductions. Income from operations was $19.8 million for the full year 2022, compared to $18.2 million in 2021. Net income was $6.5 million for the full year 2022, compared to net income of $3.9 million in 2021. Adjusted EBITDA was $58.2 million for 2022 compared to $63.0 million for full year 2021.

Chief Executive Officer Dennis Bertolotti commented, "As a result of a solid fourth quarter, we met our most recent top-line and exceeded our bottom-line guidance for the year. We continued to organically grow revenue despite the adverse impact of foreign currency exchange, while significantly improving profitability. Upstream, midstream and downstream revenue were all up in 2022, driven by continued improvement at our customers and strong demand for our services. Aerospace and Defense revenue was also up for the year, led by strength in commercial aerospace, offset by project delays in defense revenue during the fourth quarter. Gross margin improved to over 30% for the second consecutive quarter, in part due to pricing actions taken earlier in the year, helping to offset the wage inflation that we have been absorbing, in addition to lower employee benefit expenses. With these customer pricing actions now in place, we expect some tailwinds to both recurring revenue and gross margin for 2023. In the fourth quarter of 2022, we were able to leverage our gross profit margin expansion into a 152% increase in operating income, through continued cost discipline, with selling, general and administrative expenses down from the year ago quarter despite the impact of inflationary costs. Our financial strength was also significantly improved over the prior year, with net debt reduced to $170.8 million from $178.5 million at the end of last year. Over the past four years, gross debt has decreased by almost $100 million and our leverage ratio is the lowest level it has been since immediately prior to the Onstream acquisition in December of 2018. Additionally, our bank refinancing completed in August 2022 added incremental capacity to our total available credit while also providing more favorable credit terms and further improving our financial flexibility."

Mr. Bertolotti additionally commented on the Company's progress noting, "I am proud of our organization, which has once again overcome economic challenges to generate profitable growth in 2022. We remain focused on our objective to return our results to pre-pandemic levels through growth in our core markets, expansion into adjacent markets, and the introduction of new technologies to capitalize on emerging opportunities in the markets we serve. We have kicked off our operational review with AlixPartners, which we will refer to as Project Phoenix. This review is designed to accelerate profitable growth and meaningful adjusted EBITDA improvement opportunities while also identifying steps to achieve sustained cost savings. We are laser‐focused on taking steps to position us for success to drive shareholder value. We will provide updates on the status of this project throughout 2023 as they become available."

Mr. Bertolotti further continued, "Our core markets have shown a resiliency, and we are seeing a surge in demand for our more recently launched state-of-the-art data solutions offerings. I am pleased to announce that we have surpassed our goal of installing 100 patented Sensoria™ Wind Blade Monitoring systems in 2022, having installed systems on over 130 wind turbines this year. This significant milestone demonstrates our commitment to providing exceptional value to our renewable energy customers, by enhancing their uptime and safety. Moreover, our data solutions offerings which serve our core markets have experienced strong demand with the MISTRAS Digital field execution platform and OneSuite asset protection software ecosystem leading the charge. Customers who have adopted both applications are now embracing our revolutionary technology as a bundled solution at an ever-increasing number of sites. We are excited to offer our clients yet another solution that maximizes their asset protection and operational efficiency and further supports our brand promise of: One Source for Asset Protection Solutions. Having implemented OneSuite at over 160 customer sites and issued licenses to more than 1,200 individual subscriptions, the adoption of OneSuite and its suite of 90 integrated applications - now combined with MISTRAS Digital - is setting a new standard in the industry. We are confident that our recent accomplishments signify substantial progress towards achieving our vision of becoming the go-to integrated-solution partner."

Performance by certain segments during the fourth quarter was as follows:

Services segment fourth quarter revenues were $138.1 million, down 2.2% from $141.1 million in the prior year quarter and down 1.2% excluding the impact of unfavorable foreign currency exchange. For the fourth quarter, gross profit was $40.7 million, compared to $38.8 million in the prior year. Gross profit margin was 29.5% for the fourth quarter of 2022, a 200 basis point improvement from 27.5% in the fourth quarter of the prior year. This increase was primarily due to lower employee benefit expenses and improved sales mix.

International segment fourth quarter revenues were $29.0 million, up 1.5% from $28.5 million in the prior year quarter and up 12.3% excluding the impact of unfavorable foreign currency exchange. The increase was due to timing of projects and continued recovery in the Aerospace business. International segment fourth quarter gross profit margin was 28.5%, compared to 28.0% in the prior year.

The Company generated $26.4 million of net cash from operating activities in 2022, compared with $42.3 million in 2021, with the decline primarily due to an increase in working capital, most notably an increase in days sales outstanding ("DSO"). The Company is focused on reducing DSO during fiscal 2023. Free cash flow was $13.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared with $23.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. Free cash flow in the current year was reduced by a $4.5 million payment related to the CARES Act employer payroll tax deferral and a $2.4 million legal settlement payment, both of which had been accrued in previous years.

The Company's net debt (total debt less cash and cash equivalents) was $170.8 million as of December 31, 2022, compared to $178.5 million as of December 31, 2021. Gross debt decreased by $11.3 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, from $202.6 million at the end of 2021 to $191.3 million as of December 31, 2022. The Company's leverage ratio at December 31, 2022 was the lowest it has been since prior to the Onstream acquisition in December of 2018. The Company's bank defined consolidated debt leverage ratio was just under 3.5 times as of the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2022.

Outlook for 2023

The Company is providing its preliminary full year guidance for 2023. Based on current market conditions, the Company anticipates 2023 full year revenue between $710 to $740 million and adjusted EBITDA between $70 to $75 million. The Company additionally expects to generate Free Cash Flow between $30 to $33 million. The Company is optimistic about its current level of activity, given stable energy markets, improving commercial aerospace demand, and a rapidly developing Data Solutions offering.

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 adjusted financial measures 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 and 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. 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 equivalents and 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). A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measurements to GAAP are also set forth in tables attached to this press release. In the tables attached is also a table reconciling "Segment and Total Company Income (Loss) from Operations (GAAP) to Income (Loss) before Special Items (non-GAAP)", "Net Income (Loss) (GAAP)" to "Net Income (Loss) Excluding Special Items (non-GAAP)", and "Diluted EPS (GAAP)" to "Diluted EPS Excluding Special Items (non-GAAP)" which reconciles the non-GAAP amount to a GAAP measurement.
