STANDEX REPORTS FISCAL THIRD QUARTER 2025 FINANCIAL RESULTS

SALEM, NH – May 1, 2025 – Standex International Corporation (NYSE: SXI) today reported financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2025 ended March 31, 2025.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2025 Results

Commenting on the quarter’s results, President and Chief Executive Officer David Dunbar said, “Following strong operating performance in the fiscal second quarter, we achieved several new records in our fiscal third quarter: record sales since the divestment of the Refrigeration business in April 2020, record adjusted gross margin of 42.3%, and record adjusted operating margin of 19.4%. These results reflect the continued solid operational performance from core businesses, a full quarter of ownership of the fast-growing Amran/Narayan group, and contribution from the recent McStarlite acquisition. Our fast growth market sales totaled $60.4 million or approximately 29% of total sales and are well on track to our expectations for the fiscal year of approximately $170 million. We remain confident about the Company’s exposure to positive secular trends in electrical grid, electric and hybrid vehicles, renewable energy, commercialization of space, and defense, and we are reaffirming our long-term target for fast growth market sales of $340 million plus by fiscal year 2028. In addition, we launched three additional new products in the fiscal third quarter totaling 13 year-to-date, achieving our previously committed target of over a dozen and delivering more than 2% of incremental sales.”

“While we cannot predict the impact of new tariffs on global trade and economic growth, our regional presence, strong customer relationships, and our disciplined approach to pricing and productivity actions position us well to manage through these challenges. Most of our supply chain is strategically located to service regional demand. China imports to the US approximately 6% of our cost of goods sold. We plan to continue to invest in our key strategic growth priorities, while closely managing our cost structure, driving productivity and pricing actions and seeking alternate sources of supply to further reduce our imports from China. We remain on track to achieve our long-term financial targets by fiscal 2028 and remain confident in our ability to pay down debt and reduce our net leverage ratio.”

“In early February, we acquired California-based McStarlite. The integration is on track, and we are excited about our expanded product breadth and forming capabilities in commercial aviation, space and defense applications. We expect the acquisition to be accretive to earnings in the first year of ownership.”

Outlook

In fiscal fourth quarter 2025, on a sequential basis, the Company expects slightly to moderately higher revenue, driven by the impact of recent acquisitions, higher sales into fast growth end markets, and realization of pricing initiatives. On a sequential basis, the Company expects slightly to moderately higher adjusted operating margin, benefiting from higher revenue and realization of productivity actions, partially offset by higher tariff costs and targeted investments in selling, marketing, and R&D.

Third Quarter Segment Operating Performance

Electronics (54% of sales; 68% of segment adjusted operating income)

* Excludes the amortization of acquired backlog, the step-up of inventory to fair value, and acquired intangible assets; Q3 FY24 restated to exclude the amortization of acquired intangible assets

Revenue increased approximately $30.9 million or 38.4% year-on-year, reflecting a 48.1% benefit from acquisitions, partially offset by an organic decline of 8.9% and a 0.8% impact from foreign currency. The organic decline was due to continued softness in the automotive end markets in Europe and North America and in general industrial end markets. Adjusted operating income increased approximately $15.3 million or 85.4% year-on-year due to the contribution from the Amran/Narayan Group acquisition, productivity initiatives and product mix, partially offset by lower core volume.

The segment had a book-to-bill ratio of approximately 0.98 in the fiscal third quarter, with orders of approximately $109 million. Orders in Electronics core business remained flat sequentially with a continued increase in demand in the electrical grid end market served by Amran/Narayan Group.

In fiscal fourth quarter 2025, on a sequential basis, the Company expects slightly higher revenue and similar to slightly higher adjusted operating margin, primarily driven by contributions from the Amran/Narayan Group acquisition, higher sales into fast growth end markets, and price realization, partially offset by higher tariff costs and continued strategic growth investments.

Engraving (14% of sales; 7% of segment adjusted operating income)

* Excludes the amortization of acquired intangible assets; Q3 FY24 restated to exclude the amortization of acquired intangible assets

Revenue decreased approximately $5.7 million or 15.7% year-on-year reflecting a 12.6% organic decline, primarily due to continued softness in North America from delays in new platform rollouts, and a foreign currency impact of 3.1%. Adjusted operating income decreased approximately $3.3 million or 48.8% year-on-year due to the lower revenue. Operating deleverage was partially offset by the realization of previously announced productivity initiatives and restructuring actions.

In fiscal fourth quarter 2025, on a sequential basis, the Company expects slightly higher revenue and moderately higher adjusted operating margin due to more favorable project timing in Asia, slightly improved demand in North America and Europe, and realization of previously announced restructuring actions.

Scientific (9% of sales; 8% of segment adjusted operating income)

* Excludes the amortization of acquired intangible assets; Q3 FY24 restated to exclude the amortization of acquired intangible assets

Revenue increased approximately $1.4 million or 8.1% year-on-year reflecting a 16.1% benefit from the Custom Biogenic Systems acquisition, partially offset by organic decline of 8.0%, mostly due to lower demand from academic and research institutions that were impacted by NIH funding cuts. Adjusted operating income decreased approximately $1.0 million or 19.7% year-on-year due to organic decline partially offset by contribution from the acquisition.

In fiscal fourth quarter 2025, on a sequential basis, the Company expects slightly lower revenue and adjusted operating margin due to soft demand from academic and research institutions affected by NIH funding cuts and higher tariff costs.

Engineering Technologies (13% of sales; 10% of segment adjusted operating income)

* Excludes the amortization of acquired backlog, the step-up of inventory to fair value, and acquired intangible assets; Q3 FY24 restated to exclude the amortization of acquired intangible assets

Revenue increased approximately $7.3 million or 36.2% year-on-year reflecting a 26.3% benefit from the recent McStarlite acquisition and organic growth of 9.9%, driven by more favorable project timing in the space end market and growth in sales from new products. Adjusted operating income increased approximately $1.6 million or 44.3% year-on-year reflecting the contribution from the recent acquisition and higher volume.

In fiscal fourth quarter 2025, on a sequential basis, the Company expects similar to slightly higher revenue and similar adjusted operating margin.

Specialty Solutions (10% of sales; 7% of segment adjusted operating income)

Specialty Solutions revenue decreased approximately $3.3 million or 13.9% year-on-year, reflecting general market softness in the Display Merchandising business and in the Hydraulics business. Operating income decreased approximately $1.4 million or 29.8% year-on-year due to lower volume.

In fiscal fourth quarter 2025, on a sequential basis, the Company expects moderately higher revenue and operating margin.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP adjusted income from operations, non-GAAP adjusted net income from continuing operations, free operating cash flow, EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA to net debt, and adjusted earnings per share. The attached financial tables reconcile non-GAAP measures used in this press release to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. The Company believes that the use of non-GAAP measures which exclude the impact of restructuring charges, purchase accounting, amortization from acquired intangible assets, insurance recoveries, discrete tax events, gain or loss on sale of a business unit, acquisition costs, and litigation costs help investors to obtain a better understanding of our operating results and prospects, consistent with how management measures and forecasts the Company's performance, especially when comparing such results to previous periods. An understanding of the impact in a particular quarter of specific restructuring costs, acquisition expenses, or other gains and losses, on net income (absolute as well as on a per-share basis), operating income or EBITDA can give management and investors additional insight into core financial performance, especially when compared to quarters in which such items had a greater or lesser effect, or no effect. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a replacement for, the corresponding GAAP measures, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
