Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On August 6, 2025, Mistras Group, Inc. (the "Company," "we," "us" and "our") issued a press release announcing the financial results for our second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025. 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 "net income before special items," which are not measures of financial performance under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The tables to the press release include reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable financial measure under GAAP. Also, in the tables to the press release, the non-GAAP financial measures "Segment and Total Company Income (Loss) before Special Items” (which includes operating income (loss) before special items) are presented and reconciled to financial measures under GAAP within the table "Segment and Total Company Income (Loss) from Operations (GAAP) to Income (Loss) from Operations before Special Items (Non-GAAP)." The non-GAAP financial measure "Diluted EPS excluding Special Items," is presented and reconciled to the financial measure under GAAP within the table "Net Income (Loss) (GAAP) and Diluted EPS (GAAP) to Net Income (Loss) Excluding Special Items (non-GAAP) and Diluted EPS Excluding Special Items (Non-GAAP)." Information about these non-GAAP financial measures are included in the press release.

Our management uses and provides these non-GAAP financial measures 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 for the Company 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 the Company's executive officers.

We believe that investors and other users of the financial statements benefit from the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures 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 operating 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 financial measure also takes into account cash used to purchase fixed assets needed for business operations which are not expensed. We believe this financial measure 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 measures commonly used by investors and securities analysts, they have limitations. As non-GAAP financial measures, Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flows have no standard meaning and, therefore, may not be comparable with similar financial measures 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 financial measures 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 measure.

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