Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On February 4, 2025 , Mercury Systems, Inc. (the "Company" or "we") issued a press release and an earnings presentation regarding its financial results for the second quarter ended December 27, 2024. The press release and earnings presentation are attached as exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
Information in Item 2.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and the exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 attached hereto shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, the Company provides adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income, adjusted EPS, and free cash flow, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income, and adjusted EPS exclude certain non-cash and other specified charges. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to help investors more completely understand its past financial performance and prospects for the future. However, the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures assist in providing a more complete understanding of the Company’s underlying operational results and trends, and management uses these measures along with the corresponding GAAP financial measures to manage the Company’s business, to evaluate its performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace, and to establish operational goals.
Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
On January 29, 2025, we executed a workforce reduction that will eliminate approximately 145 positions, resulting in expected restructuring charges of approximately $5 million for employee separation costs, which costs will be classified as restructuring and other charges within our statement of operations and other comprehensive income for the fiscal quarter ending March 28, 2025. The headcount savings, primarily within R&D and cost of revenues, are expected to yield annualized savings of approximately $15 million, a portion of which is expected to be reinvested in the business with the remainder supporting improved profitability and operating leverage for our 2026 fiscal year.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K may contain “forward-looking statements” made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by words such as “may,” “hope,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” “could,” “future,” or the negative of those terms or other words of similar meaning. You should carefully read forward-looking statements, including statements that contain these words, because they discuss our future expectations or state other “forward-looking” information. Forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties which change over time. We caution readers that any forward-looking statement is not a guarantee of future performance and that actual results could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statement.
Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about the amount of anticipated cost savings and/or expenses from a workforce reduction. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements are set forth in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These risks and uncertainties include, without limitation, that the anticipated cost savings will not be realized or the expenses will be larger than anticipated; the risk that implementation will be materially delayed or will be more difficult than expected; the challenges of retaining key employees; diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities; and general competitive, economic, political, defense budget, and market conditions and fluctuations.
For a discussion of such risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements, see our SEC filings, including, but not limited to, our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 28, 2024, as filed with the SEC on August 13, 2024. These filings are available in the Investor Relations section of our website. We caution you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made. Except for any obligations to disclose material information under the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K.
