MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

"We are very pleased to announce our third quarter 2024 results, marked by the strongest quarterly performance in our Aviation segment's history, achieving a revenue milestone of over $200 million," stated John Cuomo, President and CEO of VSE Corporation. "The 34% year-over-year revenue growth, combined with record profitability, reflects balanced contributions across our Aviation business units. The key drivers to our growth include the successful execution of new distribution awards, the expansion of our maintenance, repair, and overhaul ("MRO") capabilities, the launch of our new OEM-licensed manufacturing program, and contributions from our recent acquisition of Turbine Controls ("TCI")."

Mr. Cuomo continued, "Additionally, during the quarter, we completed the integration of Desser Aerospace's U.S. distribution business, launched a new Aviation e-commerce platform, made substantial progress in establishing our OEM-licensed manufacturing capabilities, and began distributing new products through our European Distribution Center of Excellence in Hamburg, Germany. The Aviation segment continues to perform successfully during a year of repositioning and focused execution.

"In our Fleet segment, we continue to advance our customer diversification strategy, with our commercial customers representing 64% of segment revenue as of the third quarter. Following a temporary reduction in activity with the United States Postal Service ("USPS") due to their system integration, activity levels have stabilized at the quarter's end, positioning us for improved revenue and profitability in the fourth quarter as compared to the third quarter," Mr. Cuomo concluded.

"Our third quarter 2024 results reflect our commitment to financial discipline," stated Adam Cohn, Chief Financial Officer of VSE Corporation. "During the quarter, we generated positive free cash flow, reduced our debt, and maintained an adjusted net leverage ratio within our target range of 3.0 to 3.5 times. Following our successful October 2024 equity offering, the Company has ample financial liquidity and flexibility to complete the acquisition of Kellstrom Aerospace in the fourth quarter and capitalize on the significant growth opportunities that lie ahead. As we look out to the fourth quarter, we expect to drive stronger free cash flow supported by ongoing operational execution on the strategic inventory investments made earlier this year. As I step into my role as CFO, I am excited to join such a dynamic team and look forward to building on VSE's impressive track record. In the months ahead, I am committed to enhancing shareholder value as we continue to execute on our strategic priorities."

STRATEGIC UPDATE

KELLSTROM AEROSPACE ACQUISITION:

On October 15, 2024, VSE announced it signed a definitive agreement to acquire Kellstrom Aerospace Group, Inc. ("Kellstrom Aerospace"), a leading full-service aftermarket solutions provider of value-added distribution and technical services for the commercial aerospace aftermarket. Kellstrom's portfolio of engine-focused products and MRO services, coupled with its technical advisory capabilities, expands VSE Aviation's portfolio of product and service solutions in the high-growth commercial aftermarket.
Kellstrom generated approximately $175 million of revenue for the trailing-twelve-month period ended September 2024. The Company expects to generate run-rate synergies of approximately $4 million within 18 months of close. The total consideration for the acquisition is approximately $200 million, comprised of approximately $185 million in cash and approximately $15 million of common shares of the Company, subject to working capital adjustments. The acquisition is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2024, pending customary closing conditions, including regulatory review.

AVIATION NEW PROGRAM EXECUTION AND INTEGRATION UPDATE:

The Aviation segment continues to scale the new European distribution Center of Excellence in Hamburg, Germany, supporting the Pratt & Whitney Canada Europe, Middle East and Africa ("EMEA") aftermarket product support program. The program is expected to be at a full year run-rate by the end of the fourth quarter of 2024.
The OEM-licensed manufacturing fuel control program continues to outpace expectations and contribute to the segment's profitability. The Kansas facility expansion supporting the fuel control program is expected to be operational in the first quarter of 2025.
The integration of Desser Aerospace's U.S. distribution business was completed in the third quarter of 2024. Desser Aerospace's tire, tube, brake and battery product lines are now being sold under the VSE Aviation name, and tires are now being sold in Europe through the Company's new distribution facility in Hamburg, Germany.
VSE Aviation's new e-commerce site was successfully launched in the third quarter of 2024, focused on initial offerings including legacy Desser Aerospace products.

FLEET UPDATE:

The USPS transition to a new Fleet Management Information System ("FMIS") platform was completed in the third quarter of 2024. Post-implementation, the Company expects an increase in repair activity, and subsequently, an increase in the usage of parts.
The e-commerce fulfillment distribution center continues to scale and support above-market growth and additional market share opportunities.
The Fleet segment strategic review remains in process, and the Company expects to provide an update in the coming months.

CORPORATE UPDATE:

In October 2024, VSE completed a follow-on equity offering of 1,982,757 shares of common stock at $87.00 per share, resulting in net cash proceeds of approximately $163.8 million.
The net proceeds from the offering will be used to finance a portion of the Kellstrom Aerospace acquisition.

THIRD QUARTER SEGMENT RESULTS

Aviation segment revenue increased 34% year-over-year to a record $203.6 million in the third quarter of 2024. The year-over-year revenue improvement was attributable to strong program execution of new and existing distribution awards, an expanded portfolio of MRO capabilities, and contributions from the TCI acquisition. Aviation distribution and MRO revenue increased 12% and 86%, respectively, in the third quarter of 2024, versus the prior-year period. The Aviation segment reported operating income of $25.4 million in the third quarter, compared to $21.0 million in the same period of 2023. Segment Adjusted EBITDA increased by 29% in the third quarter to $32.6 million, versus $25.3 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 16.0%, a decline of approximately 60 basis points versus the prior-year period, driven by lower margin contributions from the TCI acquisition.

Fleet segment revenue decreased 11% year-over-year to $70.0 million in the third quarter of 2024. Revenue from the USPS declined approximately 40% on a year-over-year basis. This revenue decline was primarily driven by USPS' transition to a new Fleet Management Information System ("FMIS") platform, which has resulted in a temporary reduction in maintenance related activities and reduced part requirements. The FMIS conversion was completed in the third quarter of 2024, supporting a modest recovery beginning in the fourth quarter of 2024. Revenue from commercial customers increased 20% on a year-over-year basis, driven by growth in e-commerce fulfillment and commercial fleet sales. Commercial, or non-USPS, revenue represented 64% of total Fleet segment revenue in the period. The Fleet segment reported operating income of $2.5 million in the third quarter, compared to $8.5 million in the same period of 2023. Segment Adjusted EBITDA decreased 59% year-over-year to $3.8 million, and Adjusted EBITDA margin declined approximately 620 basis points to 5.4%, primarily driven by the decline in USPS revenue.

FINANCIAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

As of September 30, 2024, the Company had $189 million in cash and unused commitment availability under its $350 million revolving credit facility maturing in 2026. The Company generated approximately $4 million of free cash flow in the third quarter of 2024. As of September 30, 2024, VSE had a total net debt outstanding of $442 million. Adjusted net leverage was approximately 3.3 times trailing-twelve-month Adjusted EBITDA as of the end of the third quarter.

The non-GAAP Financial Information set forth in this document is not calculated in accordance with GAAP under SEC Regulation G. We consider Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS (Diluted), EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Acquisition Adjusted EBITDA, net debt, adjusted net leverage ratio and free cash flow as non-GAAP financial measures and important indicators of performance and useful metrics for management and investors to evaluate our business' ongoing operating performance on a consistent basis across reporting periods. These non-GAAP financial measures, however, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted Net Income represents Net Income adjusted for acquisition-related costs, other discrete items, and related tax impact. Adjusted EPS (Diluted) is computed by dividing net income, adjusted for the discrete items as identified above and the related tax impacts, by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding. EBITDA represents net income before interest expense, income taxes, amortization of intangible assets and depreciation and other amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA (as defined above) adjusted for discrete items as identified above. Acquisition Adjusted EBITDA represents Adjusted EBITDA plus the pre-acquisition portion of EBITDA for the trailing twelve months. Net debt is defined as principal amount of debt less debt issuance costs and less cash and cash equivalents. Free cash flow represents operating cash flow less capital expenditures. Adjusted net leverage ratio is calculated as net debt divided by trailing twelve month Acquisition Adjusted EBITDA.

The Company has presented forward-looking statements regarding Adjusted EBITDA margin. This non-GAAP financial measure is derived by excluding certain amounts, expenses or income, from the corresponding financial measure determined in accordance with GAAP. The determination of the amounts that are excluded from this non-GAAP financial measure is a matter of management judgment and depends upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts recognized in a given period in reliance on the exception provided by item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K. We are unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA margin to its most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure because such information is not available, and management cannot reliably predict all of the necessary components of such GAAP measure without unreasonable effort or expense. In addition, we believe such reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the company's future financial results. This non-GAAP financial measure is a preliminary estimate and is subject to risks and uncertainties, including, among others, changes in connection with quarter-end and year-end adjustments. Any variation between the company's actual results and preliminary financial data set forth above may be material.
