For the nine months ended June 30, 2025, total revenue decreased 3.4% to $1,970.0 million driven by a $56.1M million decrease in our commercial landscaping business combined with a $10.5 million decrease in snow removal revenue, both of which were primarily driven by strategic reductions of non-core businesses and to a lesser extent a decline in commercial landscaping and snow in our core business.

Segment Adjusted EBITDA Margin increased 80 basis points, to 16.1%, in the three months ended June 30, 2025, from 15.3% in the 2024 period. The increase in Segment Adjusted EBITDA Margin was primarily driven by cost management initiatives, which included reduced vehicle and equipment related costs, and personnel related costs.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2025, Maintenance Services net service revenues decreased by $66.6 million, or 4.5%, from the 2024 period. Commercial Landscaping services decreased by $56.1 million, or 4.5% and snow removal services decreased by $10.5 million, or 4.7%.

The decrease was driven by timing delays in Development Services projects. Adjusted EBITDA for the Development Services Segment for the three months ended June 30, 2025, increased $4.0 million, to $31.5 million, compared to the 2024 period. Segment Adjusted EBITDA Margin increased 280 basis points, to 15.6% for the quarter from 12.8% in the 2024 period. The increases in Segment Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDA Margin were primarily driven by reductions in overhead costs due to the Company's cost management initiatives combined with the timing and mix of projects in the period. For the nine months ended June 30, 2025, revenue in the Development Services Segment increased $0.2 million, or 0.0%, compared to the 2024 period. The results were driven by increased Development Services project volumes in the first half of fiscal 2025, which were offset by delays in the timing of projects during the third quarter. Adjusted EBITDA for the Development Services Segment for the nine months ended June 30, 2025, increased $13.5 million, to $66.1 million, compared to the 2024 period. Segment Adjusted EBITDA Margin increased 240 basis points, to 11.7% for the period from 9.3% in the 2024 period.

This increase was due to a decrease in net income, more than offset by increases in non-cash adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash provided by operating activities, combined with an increase in cash provided by accounts receivable. This was partially offset by a decrease in cash provided by other operating assets. Adjusted Free Cash Flow decreased $94.4 million to $25.8 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2025, from $120.2 million in the prior year. The decrease in Adjusted Free Cash Flow was due to an increase in cash used for capital expenditures, partially offset by an increase in net cash provided by operating activities. For the nine months ended June 30, 2025, capital expenditures were $195.8 million, compared with $46.0 million in the prior year. The Company also generated proceeds from the sale of property and equipment of $14.2 million and $14.1 million during the nine months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

We undertake no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law. Non-GAAP Financial Measures To supplement the Company's financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and aid understanding of the Company's business performance, the Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, namely "Adjusted EBITDA", "Adjusted EBITDA Margin", "Adjusted Net Income (Loss)", "Adjusted Earnings (Loss) per Share", "Adjusted Free Cash Flow", "Total Financial Debt", "Total Net Financial Debt" and "Total Net Financial Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio". We believe Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Earnings (Loss) per Share, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Total Financial Debt, Total Net Financial Debt, and Total Net Financial Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio assist investors in comparing our results across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in highlighting trends in our operating performance, while other measures can differ significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which we operate and capital investments. Management regularly uses these measures as tools in evaluating our operating performance, financial performance and liquidity. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Earnings (Loss) per Share, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Total Financial Debt, Total Net Financial Debt, and Total Net Financial Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio to supplement comparable GAAP measures in the evaluation of the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to establish discretionary annual incentive compensation and to compare our performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures. In addition, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Earnings (Loss) per Share, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Total Financial Debt, Total Net Financial Debt, and Total Net Financial Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio are frequently used by investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of issuers, many of which also present Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Earnings (Loss) per Share, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Total Financial Debt, Total Net Financial Debt, and Total Net Financial Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio when reporting their results in an effort to facilitate an understanding of their operating and financial results and liquidity. Management supplements GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than GAAP results alone. Adjusted EBITDA: We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as further adjusted to exclude certain non-cash, non-recurring and other adjustment items. Adjusted EBITDA Margin: We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA, defined above, divided by Net Service Revenues. Adjusted Net Income (Loss): We define Adjusted Net Income (Loss) as net income (loss) including interest and depreciation, and excluding other items used to calculate Adjusted EBITDA and further adjusted for the tax effect of these exclusions and the removal of the discrete tax items. Adjusted Earnings per Share: We define Adjusted Earnings per Share as Adjusted Net Income divided by the (i) weighted average number of common shares outstanding used in the calculation of basic earnings per share plus (ii) shares of common stock related to the Series A Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis, assumed to be converted for the entire period. The addition of shares of common stock related to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis reflects the dilutive impact of the potential conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock and is expected to provide comparability in future periods. Adjusted Free Cash Flow: We define Adjusted Free Cash Flow as cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures, net of proceeds from the sale of property and equipment. Total Financial Debt: We define Total Financial Debt as total long-term debt, net of original issue discount, and finance lease obligations. Total Net Financial Debt: We define Total Net Financial Debt as Total Financial Debt minus total cash and cash equivalents. Total Net Financial Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio: We define Total Net Financial Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio as Total Net Financial Debt divided by the trailing twelve month Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Earnings (Loss) per Share, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Total Financial Debt, Total Net Financial Debt, and Total Net Financial Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio are not recognized terms under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or the ratio of net income (loss) to net revenue as a measure of financial performance, cash flows provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, these measures are not intended to be a measure of Adjusted Free Cash Flow available for management's discretionary use as they do not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments and debt service requirements. The presentations of these measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentations of these measures may not be comparable to the same or other similarly titled measures of other companies and can differ significantly from company to company.

CommScope Reports Second Quarter 2025 Results

CLAREMONT, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug 4, 2025-- CommScope Holding Company, Inc. (NASDAQ: COMM), a global leader in network connectivity solutions, today reported results for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. We are extremely pleased with our outstanding results in the second quarter. CommScope net sales of $1.39 billion increased 31.7% from the prior year. Net sales were positively supported by stronger-than-expected results across all segments. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA was $338 million, a strong improvement of 79% year-over-year, marking the fifth consecutive quarter. Second quarter adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues was 24.3%, compared to 17.9% in the prior year, a year-over-year improvement of 640 basis points. 'We are well positioned for future growth and are raising our 2025 adjusted EBITDA guideposts to $1.15 to $1.20 billion,' said Chuck Treadway, President and Chief Executive Officer. He continued, 'As announced, CommScope entered into a definitive agreement to sell its CCS segment to Amphenol (NYSE: APH). Upon closing, CommScope will receive approximately USD $10.5 billion in cash. The sale is expected to close in the first half of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of applicable regulatory and shareholder approvals. This transformational deal unlocks equity value, returns cash to our shareholders and strengthens the remaining businesses. Amphenol is a strong buyer of the CCS assets. Our customers, and employees going with the transaction will be in very good hands. I am very excited for the future of ANS and RUCKUS as both businesses have recovered from their prior year challenges and are positioned for growth.' 'With the proceeds from the recently announced transaction, we expect to repay all existing debt, redeem our preferred equity and add modest leverage to the remaining company. We will have significant excess cash. We expect to distribute this excess cash to our common shareholders as a dividend within 60 to 90 days following the closing of the proposed transaction after taking into account all relevant factors. The exact amount and timing of the dividend will be determined by the Company after closing. As evidenced by the second quarter results in ANS and RUCKUS, we are excited about the future of the remaining company. On a twelve-month trailing basis, ANS and RUCKUS Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA was $300 million on Net Sales of $1.7 billion,' said Kyle Lorentzen, Chief Financial Officer. As a result of divesting the Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) business during the quarter ended March 31, 2025, the Company has changed the name of its Networking, Intelligent Cellular & Security Solutions (NICS) segment to RUCKUS, effective as of April 1, 2025. There were no changes to the composition of the Company's operating or reportable segments, the financial information reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (CODM), or historical segment operating results as a result of this change. Second Quarter Results and Comparisons Net sales in the second quarter of 2025 increased 31.7% year-over-year to $1.39 billion due to higher net sales in all segments. Net sales increased across all regions, except the Caribbean and Latin America region and Canada, in the second quarter of 2025. Income from continuing operations of $29.4 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2025, increased compared to the prior year period's loss from continuing operations of $(56.2) million, or $(0.34) per share. Non-GAAP adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2025 was $119.4 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, versus $8.6 million, or $0.03 per share, in the second quarter of 2024. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA increased 79.0% to $337.8 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same period last year. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales increased to 24.3% in the second quarter of 2025 compared to 17.9% in the same prior year period. Reconciliations of the reported GAAP results to non-GAAP adjusted results are included below.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures CommScope management believes that presenting certain non-GAAP financial measures enhances an investor's understanding of our financial performance. CommScope management further believes that these financial measures are useful in assessing CommScope's operating performance from period to period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business. CommScope management also uses certain of these financial measures for business planning purposes and in measuring CommScope's performance relative to that of its competitors. CommScope management believes these financial measures are commonly used by investors to evaluate CommScope's performance and that of its competitors. However, CommScope's use of certain non-GAAP terms may vary from that of others in its industry. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to operating income (loss), net income (loss), cash flow from operations or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP as measures of operating performance, operating cash flows or liquidity. A reconciliation of each of the non-GAAP measures discussed herein to their most comparable GAAP measures is below. RemainCo Financial Measures RemainCo financial measures are the aggregate of the Access Network Solutions and RUCKUS segments. They do not include the results of the Connectivity and Cable Solutions segment. The RemainCo segments and the Connectivity and Cable Solutions segment represent the business segments as currently managed and reported by CommScope. Future results and the composition of any business divested in the future may vary and differ materially from the presentation of the RemainCo financial measures.
