CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Forward-Looking Statements. This report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements relate to expectations, estimates, beliefs, assumptions and predictions of future events and are identified by words such as “aim,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “can,” “could,” “designed,” “estimates,” “expects,” “focus,” “goal,” “intends,” “may,” “plan,” “outlook,” “potential,” “seek,” “strategy,” “strive,” “target,” “will,” “would,” and other similar words. Forward-looking statements are not statements of historical fact and thus are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or those expressed in such forward-looking statements. You should evaluate forward-looking statements in light of important risk factors and uncertainties that may affect our operating and financial results and our ability to achieve our financial objectives.

These factors include, but are not limited to:

| ● | general economic conditions applicable to our business, including impacts from the ongoing inflationary environment,

| ● | the highly competitive nature of the industries in which we compete,

| ● | the significant competition we face in our Distribution segment,

| ● | the concentration of Service segment customers in the life science and other FDA-regulated businesses, as well as the industrial manufacturing, aerospace, defense, energy and utilities industries,

| ● | any impairment of our goodwill or intangible assets,

| ● | tariffs and changing trade relations, regional and international conflicts and political conditions,

| ● | negative publicity and other reputational harm,

| ● | our ability to successfully complete and integrate business acquisitions,

| ● | potential unexpected liabilities associated with companies we acquire,

| ● | cybersecurity risks, including the risk of significant disruptions in our information technology systems,

| ● | our ability to recruit, train and retain quality employees, skilled technicians and senior management,

| ● | our ability to achieve or maintain adequate utilization and pricing rates for our technical service providers,

| ● | the prices we are able to charge for our services in our Service segment,

| ● | our ability to adapt our technology,

| ● | reliance on our enterprise resource planning system,

| ● | supply chain delays, disruptions or product shortages,

| ● | the risks related to current and future indebtedness,

| ● | foreign currency rate fluctuations,

| ● | risks related to protecting our intellectual property,

| ● | the impact of adverse weather events or other catastrophes, natural disasters or widespread public health crises, pandemics or other epidemics,

| ● | fluctuations in our operating results,

| ● | the volatility of our stock price and the relatively low trading volume of our common stock,

| ● | changes in tax rates, accounting standards, legal requirements and listing standards, and

| ● | legal and regulatory risks related to our international operations.

These risk factors and uncertainties are more fully described by us under the heading “Risk Factors” in Item IA. of Part I of this report. You should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update, correct or publicly announce any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements contained in this report, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Transcat, Inc. (“Transcat”, the “Company,” “we” or “us”) is a leading provider of accredited calibration services, cost control and optimization services, and distribution and rental of value-added professional grade handheld test, measurement, and control instrumentation. We are focused on providing services and products to highly regulated industries, particularly the life science industry, which includes pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and other FDA-regulated businesses. Additional industries served include industrial manufacturing; energy and utilities, including oil and gas; chemical manufacturing; FAA-regulated businesses, including aerospace and defense; and other industries that require accuracy in their processes, confirmation of the capabilities of their equipment, and for which the risk of failure is very costly.

We conduct our business through two operating segments: service (“Service”) and distribution (“Distribution”). See Note 7 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in this report for financial information for these segments. We concentrate on attracting new customers in each segment, retaining existing customers and cross-selling to customers to increase our total revenue. We serve approximately 30,000 customers through our Service and Distribution segments, with approximately 20% to 25% of those customers transacting with us through both of our business segments.
Through the Company’s acquisition strategy, we have been focused on building out our business segments, expanding our core calibration business, as well as entering new geographic markets and entering adjacent and complimentary markets. This has been demonstrated by the acquisitions of Martin Calibration, Inc. ("Martin") and Becnel Rental Tools, LLC ("Becnel") in our fiscal year ended March 29, 2025 ("fiscal year 2025") and Axiom Test Equipment, Inc. (“Axiom”), SteriQual, Inc. (“SteriQual”) and TIC-MS, Inc. ("TIC-MS") in our fiscal year ended March 30, 2024 ("fiscal year 2024").

Through our Service segment, we offer calibration, repair, inspection, analytical qualifications, preventative maintenance, consulting and other related services, a majority of which are processed through our proprietary asset management system, CalTrak® and our online customer portal, C3®. Our Service model is flexible, and we cater to our customers’ needs by offering a variety of services and solutions including permanent and periodic onsite services, mobile calibration services, pickup and delivery and in-house services. As of the end of our fiscal year 2025, we operated thirty-three calibration service centers (“Calibration Service Centers”) strategically located across the United States, Puerto Rico, Canada and Ireland. We also serve our customers onsite at their facilities for daily, weekly or longer-term periods. In addition, we have several imbedded customer-site locations that we refer to as “client-based labs,” where we provide calibration services, and in some cases other related services, exclusively for the customer and where we reside and work every day. We also have a fleet of mobile calibration laboratories that can provide service at customer sites which may not have the space or utility capabilities we require to service their equipment.

All of our Calibration Service Centers have obtained ISO/IEC 17025:2017 scopes of accreditation. Our accreditations are the cornerstone of our quality program, which we believe is among the best in the industry. Our dedication to quality is highly valued by businesses that operate in the industries we serve, particularly those in life science and other regulated industries, and our accreditations provide our customers with confidence that they will receive a consistent and uniform service, regardless of which of our service centers completes the service.

Prior to fiscal year 2024, the Company acquired Cal OpEx Limited (d/b/a Transcat Ireland) which owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of its U.S. based subsidiary, Cal OpEx Inc. (d/b/a NEXA EAM), a Delaware corporation (collectively, "NEXA"). During fiscal year 2025, NEXA went through a formal rebranding and is now known as Transcat Solutions. Transcat Solutions provides asset management services to the biopharmaceutical industry by leveraging its six service tracks: (i) calibration, (ii) maintenance and spare, (iii) reliability, (iv) computerized maintenance management systems solutions (“CMMS”), (v) quality and compliance, and (vi) validation. By delivering these services, Transcat Solutions is able to provide unique value to our end customers in managing their asset portfolios, avoiding asset downtime and helping to accelerate delivery of their life changing products to market, ultimately driving significant cost savings and improved reliability. This Transcat Solutions suite of services, combined with the existing Transcat service offerings, provides a very comprehensive and robust value proposition to existing and new customers, which allows us to manage the complexity that is tied to doing business in these highly regulated industries.

Through our Distribution segment, we sell and rent national and proprietary brand instruments to customers globally. Through our website, in-house sales team and printed and digital marketing materials, we offer access to more than 75,000 test, measurement and control instruments, including products from approxima tely 400 leading brands. Most instruments we sell and rent require calibration service to ensure that they maintain the most precise measurements. By having the capability to calibrate these instruments at the time of sale and at regular post-sale intervals, we can give customers a value-added service that most of our competitors are unable to provide. Calibrating before shipping means the customer can place their instruments into service immediately upon receipt, reducing downtime. Other value-added options we offer through our Distribution segment include equipment kitting (which is especially valued in the power generation sector), equipment rentals and used equipment sales.
Our commitment to quality goes beyond the services and products we deliver. Our sales, customer service and support teams provide expert advice, application assistance and technical support to our customers. Since calibration is an intangible service, our customers rely on us to uphold high standards and provide integrity in our people and processes.

Our customers include leading manufacturers in the life science/pharmaceutical, energy, defense, aerospace and industrial process control sectors. We believe our customers do business with us because of our integrity and commitment to quality service, our broad range of product and service offerings, our proprietary asset management system, CalTrak®, and our online customer portal, C3®. In our fiscal years 2025 and 2024, no customer or controlled group of customers accounted for 5% or more of our total revenue. The loss of any single customer would not have a material adverse effect on our business, cash flows, balance sheet, or results of operations.

Transcat was incorporated in Ohio in 1964. We are headquartered in Rochester, New York. Our executive offices are located at 35 Vantage Point Drive, Rochester, New York 14624. Our telephone number is 585-352-7777. Our website is www.transcat.com. Information available on our website is not a part of, and is not incorporated into, this Annual Report on Form 10-K. We trade on the Nasdaq Global Market under the ticker symbol “TRNS”.

OUR STRATEGY

Our two operating segments are highly complementary in that their offerings are of value to customers within the same industries. Our strategy is to leverage the complementary nature of our operating segments in ways that add value for all customers who select Transcat as their source for test and measurement equipment and/or calibration and laboratory instrument services. We strive to differentiate ourselves within the markets we serve and build on our competitive advantages by offering a broad range of products and services and by integrating these solutions in a value-added manner to benefit our customers’ operations.

During fiscal year 2025, we continued our commitment to capital, people and leadership investments, advancing our “Operational Excellence” initiative. This initiative resulted in increased productivity and operational efficiency and further differentiation from our competitors as we leverage technology, automation, and process improvements to enhance our effectiveness and our customers’ experiences. Our Operational Excellence initiative is a multi-year, ever-evolving program designed to create an infrastructure that supports our strategic goals and organic growth over a longer timeframe. We also continued Transcat University’s "build-a-tech" program. This program attracts fresh talent to the organization and provides training and career advancement opportunities for our existing employees.

Within the Service segment, our strategy is to drive double-digit revenue growth through both organic expansion and acquisitions. We have adopted an integrated sales model to drive sales, leverage our industry leading value proposition, which includes Transcat Solutions, and capitalize on the cross-selling opportunities between our two segments, especially leveraging our Distribution relationships to develop new Service relationships. We leverage these relationships with our unique value proposition which resonates strongly with customers who rely on accredited calibration services and/or laboratory instrument services to maintain the integrity of their processes and/or meet the demands of regulated business environments. Our customer base values our superior quality programs and requires precise measurement capability in their processes to minimize risk, waste and defects. We execute this strategy by leveraging our quality programs, metrology expertise, geographical footprint, qualified technicians, breadth of capabilities, and tailored service delivery options. Together, this allows us to meet the most rigorous quality demands of our most highly regulated customers while simultaneously being nimble enough to meet their business needs.

During fiscal year 2025, we saw a significant erosion in the Transcat Solutions business, highlighting the need to further integrate that business into our existing sales and marketing infrastructure. Through this integration, we expect to be able to leverage the appropriate resources within the Transcat sales team to ensure appropriate sales pipeline levels and conversions are maintained to support stable and consistent sales growth in the Transcat Solutions business over time.

We expect to continue to grow our Service business organically by taking market share from other third-party providers and original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), as well as by targeting the outsourcing of in-house calibration labs as multi-year client-based lab contracts. We believe an important element in taking market share is our ability to expand into new technical capabilities and adjacent service solutions that are in demand by our current and target customer base.

The other component to our Service growth strategy is acquisitions. There are three drivers of our acquisition strategy: geographic expansion, increased capabilities and expertise, and infrastructure leverage. We are disciplined in our approach to selecting target companies. Through our Operational Excellence initiative, we have invested in dedicated resources to focus on strengthening our acquisition integration process, allowing us to capitalize on acquired sales and cost synergies at a faster pace.

Our Distribution segment strategy is to be the premier distributor and rental source of leading test and measurement equipment while also providing cross-selling opportunities for our Service segment. Through our vendor relationships we have access to more than 75,000 products, which we market to our existing and prospective customers both with and without value-added service options that are unique to Transcat. In addition to offering new products, we offer our customers the options of renting selected test and measurement equipment or buying used equipment, furthering our ability to answer all of our customers’ test and measurement equipment needs. We continuously evaluate our offerings to add new in-demand vendors or products or remove less relevant vendors and products. Our equipment rental business continues to be a strong growth offering for us and helps support our distribution and service segment growth strategies. Having new, used and rental equipment further differentiates us from our Service segment competitors.

We see these various methods of meeting our Distribution customers’ needs as a way to differentiate ourselves and to diversify this segment’s customer base from its historically niche market. This differentiation and diversification strategy has been deliberately instituted in recent years as a means to mitigate the effect of price-driven competition and to lessen the impact that any particular industry or market will have on the overall performance of this segment.

As part of our growth strategy, we completed two acquisitions during our fiscal year 2025 and three acquisitions during our fiscal year 2024:

| ● | Effective December 10, 2024, the Company acquired Martin, a privately-held Minnesota-based Midwest regional calibration services company. Martin's presence in Minneapolis, which is rich in life science and aerospace & defense customers and its reputation for quality and customer service satisfaction, made it a coveted target for Transcat.
| ● | Effective April 15, 2024, the Company acquired Becnel, a privately-held Louisiana limited liability company. Becnel is an ISO 9001:2015 certified provider of rental tools and services primarily utilized in the decommissioning and maintenance of oil wells.
| ● | Effective August 8, 2023, Transcat purchased all of the outstanding capital stock of Axiom, a privately-held California rental provider of electronic test equipment to customers across the United States.
| ● | Effective July 12, 2023, Transcat purchased all of the outstanding capital stock of SteriQual, a Florida based provider of expert consulting services to pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical, medical device and diagnostic equipment manufacturers.
| ● | Effective March 27, 2023, Transcat purchased all of the outstanding capital stock of TIC-MS, a Missouri based provider of calibration services.

Our acquisition strategy primarily targets service businesses that expand our geographic reach, increase the depth and/or breadth of our service and distribution capabilities and expertise and leverage our infrastructure. The table below illustrates the strategic drivers for the acquisitions described above:

| Geographic Expansion | Increased Capabilities and Expertise | Leveraged Infrastructure
Martin | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
Becnel | ✓ | ✓ |
Axiom | ✓ | ✓ |
SteriQual |  | ✓ | ✓
TIC-MS |  | ✓ | ✓

We believe our combined Service and Distribution segment offerings, experience, technical expertise and focus on quality create a unique and compelling value proposition for our customers, and we intend to continue to grow our business through organic revenue growth and business acquisitions. We consider the attributes of our Service segment, which include higher gross margins and recurring revenue streams from customers in regulated industries to be more compelling and scalable than our legacy Distribution segment. For this reason, we expect our Service segment to be the primary source of revenue and earnings growth in future fiscal years. The charts below illustrate Service, Distribution and consolidated revenue over the past five years:

SEGMENTS

Service Segment

Calibration. Calibration is the act of comparing a unit or instrument of unknown value to a standard of known value and reporting the result in some specifically defined form. After the calibration has been completed, a decision is made, based on rigorously defined parameters, regarding what, if anything, should be done to the unit to conform to the required standards or specifications. The decision may be to adjust, optimize or repair a unit; limit the use, range or rating of a unit; scrap the unit; or leave the unit as is. The purpose of calibration is to significantly reduce the risk of product or process failures caused by inaccurate measurements. In addition to its being an element of quality control and risk management, calibration improves an operation’s productivity and efficiency to optimal levels by assuring accurate, reliable instruments and processes.

Table of Contents

The need for calibration is often driven by regulation, which identifies a requirement for quality calibration and laboratory instrument services as a critical component of a company’s business operation. We specifically target industries and companies that are regulated by the U.S. FDA, FAA or other regulatory bodies. As a result of the various levels of regulation within our target industries such as life sciences, pharmaceutical manufacturing and medical device manufacturing, our customers’ calibration and laboratory instrument service sourcing decisions are generally made based on the provider’s quality systems, accreditation, reliability, trust, customer service and documentation of services. To maintain our competitive position in this segment, we maintain internationally recognized third-party accredited quality systems, further detailed in the section entitled “Service Quality” below, and provide our customers with access to proprietary asset management software solutions, which offer tools to manage their internal calibration programs and provide them with visibility to their service records.

Through our Service segment, we perform recurring periodic calibrations (typically ranging from three-month to twenty-four month intervals) on new and customer-owned instruments. We perform approximately 850,000 to 900,000 calibrations annually and can address a significant majority of the items requested to be calibrated with our in-house capabilities. For customers’ calibration needs in less common and highly specialized disciplines, we subcontract some calibrations to third-party vendors that have unique or proprietary capabilities. While typically representing approximately 13% to 15% of our Service segment revenue, we believe the management of these items is highly valued by our customers and providing this service has enabled us to continue our pursuit of having the broadest calibration offerings in these targeted markets. We regularly review outsourced services to identify opportunities for in-house capability expansion.

Transcat’s most recent investment in capability expansion includes ground support equipment ("GSE"), an integral role in aircraft operations. The speed, efficiency, and accuracy of this equipment are crucial factors that help minimize downtime for aircraft before, between, and after flights. At Transcat, we are proud to offer GSE certification, calibration, maintenance, and repair services for the aviation and aerospace industries.

Driving Continuous Improvement through Transcat’s Cost Control and Optimization Services, we provide technical, consulting, and staffing solutions in the U.S., Canada, Ireland, Europe, and Asia Pacific to improve asset management programs for our most highly-regulated customers, especially those in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device industries. Transcat Solutions offers six service tracks that support the creation or optimization of our client’s enterprise asset management program. Whether a facility is in preconstruction, operational or decommissioning stage, Transcat Solutions’ experienced teams can deliver results in all phases of the asset lifecycle. Transcat Solutions' full suite of services or combination solutions are customizable to meet our customers' unique needs.

Other Services. We provide other services to our customers such as inspection, repair and consulting services, which appeal to customers across all sectors in our customer base. These are generally value-added services and allow us to provide “one-stop shopping” for our customers.

Service Value Proposition. Our calibration services strategy encompasses multiple ways to manage a customer’s calibration and laboratory instrument service needs:

| ● | We offer an “Integrated Calibration Service Solution” that provides a complete wrap-around service, which can be delivered in the following ways:

| ● | In-house services - services are performed at one of our thirty-three Calibration Service Centers (often accompanied by pick-up and delivery services).
| ● | Periodic onsite services - Transcat technicians travel to a customer’s location, including aboard vessels docked at shipyards, and provide bench-top or in-line calibration or laboratory services on predetermined service cycles.
| ● | Client-based-laboratory services - Transcat establishes and manages a calibration service program within a customer’s facility.
| ● | Mobile calibration services - services are completed on a customer’s property within one of our mobile calibration units.

| ● | For companies that maintain an internal calibration operation, we can provide:

| ● | Calibration of their primary calibration assets, also called “standards”.
| ● | Overflow capability, either onsite or at one of our Calibration Service Centers, during periods of high demand.

| ● | Transcat Solutions Cost Control and Optimization Services:

| ● | Calibration – criticality risk assessment; calibration interval analysis; calibration plans/task lists; planning and scheduling.
| ● | Maintenance and Spares – PM optimization; spares/BOM management; PM plans/task lists; planning and scheduling.
| ● | Reliability – asset criticality assessments; asset hierarchy development; PdM plans/task lists; FMECA/RCA.
| ● | CMMS – implementation and migration; data optimization; business intelligence; CMMS KPIs/reporting.
| ● | Quality and Compliance – technical writing; compliance audits; remediation; compliance management.
| ● | CQV – equipment and facility C&Q; cleaning and sterilization validation; process and software validation; warehouse environmental mapping.

| ● | Transcat Single Source Solution:

| ● | Commissioning, Qualification and Validation.
| ● | Data build for the computerized maintenance and calibration system (CMMS).
| ● | Reliability Planning.
| ● | Maintenance & Spares delivery.
| ● | Execution of initial Calibrations.
| ● | Final activities leading to the successful turn-over of the fully completed equipment and systems to the Client in an operationally-ready state.

Inclusive with all the above services, we provide total program management including logistics, remediation and consultation services when needed.

We strive to provide the broadest accredited calibration offering to our targeted markets, which includes certification of our technicians pursuant to the American Society for Quality standards, complete calibration management encompassing the entire metrology function, and access to our complementary service and product offerings. We believe our calibration services are of the highest technical and quality levels, with broad ranges of accreditation.

Our compliance services strategy is to identify and establish long-term relationships with life science research and manufacturing customers who require analytical qualifications, validation, remediation and/or preventative maintenance services. In most cases, these customers are life science companies, including pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies engaged in research and development and manufacturing, which are subject to extensive government regulation. The services we provide to these regulated customers are typically a critical component of the customer’s overall compliance program. Because many laboratory instrument service customers operate in regulated industries, these same customers typically also require accredited calibration services. This requirement allows a natural synergy between our laboratory instrument and calibration services. Our strategy includes cross-selling our services within our customer accounts to maximize our revenue opportunities with each customer.

We believe our Cost Control and Optimization services is a scalable business as it requires minimal upfront capital investment, and the services can largely be effectively completed via a virtual workforce. This allows us to follow our customers geographically and provide a high level of service whether a Transcat physical presence in that geography exists or not.

Proprietary Asset Management Software. CalTrak® is our proprietary documentation and asset management software which is used to integrate and manage both the workflow of our Calibration Service Centers and our customers’ assets. With CalTrak®, we are able to provide our customers with timely and consistent calibration service while optimizing our own efficiencies. CalTrak® has been validated to U.S. federal regulations 21 CFR Part 820.75 and 21 CFR Part 11, as applicable. This validation is important to pharmaceutical and other FDA-regulated industries where federal regulations can be particularly stringent.

Additionally, C3® provides our customers with web-based asset management capability and a safe and secure off-site archive of calibration and other service records that can be accessed 24 hours a day through our secure password-protected website. C3® stands for Compliance, Control and Cost, and we see these as the major areas of focus for our clients within the regulatory environment as it relates to instrument calibration. We specifically designed C3® to assist our customers in increasing efficiency, driving compliance to quality system and enhancing control of instrumentation, all while bringing their overall metrology costs down. Understanding the regulated environments that our clients operate within, we customized the platform to allow for single system of record utilization via capabilities that allow clients to track and manage instruments maintained internally in addition to instruments supported by Transcat. C3® is validated to 21 CFR Part 820.75 and 21 CFR Part 11 to meet stringent FDA requirements.

Through CalTrak® and C3®, each customer calibration is tracked and automatically cross-referenced to the assets used to perform the calibration, providing traceability.

Service Marketing and Sales. Under our integrated sales model, we have both inside and outside sales teams that seek to acquire new customers in our targeted markets by leveraging our unique value proposition, including our broad geographic footprint and comprehensive suite of services. We target regulated customers with multiple manufacturing operations throughout North America and Ireland. We leverage our ability to manage the complete life cycle of instrumentation from purchase of calibrated equipment to long-term service and maintenance requirements. Connecting all the dots by using new and used product sales, rentals, and repair and calibration services is the goal of our marketing and sales initiatives. We also have a team of customer success managers focused on delivering ever-increasing value for our existing customers. We utilize print media, trade shows and web-based initiatives to market our services to customers and prospective customers with a strategic focus in the highly regulated industries including life science and other FDA-regulated industries, aerospace and defense, energy and utilities, and chemical manufacturing. We also target industrial manufacturing and other industries that appreciate the value of quality calibrations.

Service Competition. The calibration services industry is highly fragmented and is composed of companies ranging from internationally recognized and accredited OEMs to non-accredited sole proprietors as well as companies that perform their own calibrations in-house, resulting in a tremendous range of service levels and capabilities. The large OEMs may offer specialized services and brand-specific expertise which we do not offer, but they are generally focused on providing specialized services only for their proprietary brands and product lines, rather than servicing an array of brands and product lines as we do. A large percentage of calibration companies are small businesses that generally do not have a range of capabilities as broad as ours. There are also several companies with whom we compete that have national or regional operations.

We differentiate ourselves from our competitors by demonstrating our commitment to quality, expanding upon the largest 17025 scope of accreditation and calibration capabilities of any commercial calibration laboratory that is tailored to the markets we serve, leveraging a geographical footprint that spans North America, Puerto Rico and Ireland, and providing a comprehensive suite of services that spans many disciplines and hundreds of manufacturers which is not limited to certain product lines or brands. Our unique ability to bundle our products with both Transcat’s Cost Control and Optimization Services and Transcat’s Single Source Solution, provides a high level of differentiation from our competitors. As one of the only North American compliance and calibration service providers who also distributes product, our customers can seamlessly replace instruments that cannot be calibrated or are otherwise deemed to be at end of life. Our comprehensive knowledge of the products we distribute also allows our service staff to consult and advise customers on what products are best suited for their in-house calibration needs. We also believe that our proprietary software is a key differentiator from our competitors. CalTrak® and C3® are utilized by our customers in an integrated manner, providing a competitive barrier as customers realize synergies and efficiencies as a result of this integration.

Service Quality. The accreditation process is the only system currently in existence that validates measurement competence. To ensure that the quality and consistency of our calibrations are consistent with the global metrology network, designed to standardize measurements worldwide, we have sought and achieved international levels of quality and accreditation to provide uniformity across all locations with advanced levels of training for our technical staff. Our Calibration Service Centers are accredited to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 by ANSI-ASQ National Accreditation Board (“ANAB”) and other accrediting bodies. These accrediting bodies are International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation Mutual Recognition Arrangement (“ILAC MRA”) signatories, are proficient in the technical aspects of the chemistry and physics that underlie metrology, and provide an objective, third-party, internationally accepted evaluation of the quality, consistency, and competency of our calibration processes. Accreditation also requires that all measurement standards used for accredited measurements have a fully documented path, known as Metrological Traceability, through the National Institute of Standards and Technology or the National Research Council (the National Measurement Institutes for the United States and Canada, respectively), or to other national or international standards bodies, or to measurable conditions created in our Calibration Service Centers, or accepted fundamental and/or natural physical constants, ratio type of calibration, or by comparison to consensus standards, all inclusive of measurement uncertainties.

The importance of this international oversight to our customers is the assurance that our service documentation will be accepted worldwide, removing one of the barriers to trade that they may experience if using a calibration laboratory provider whose accrediting body is not an ILAC MRA signatory. To provide the widest range of services to our customers in our target markets, our ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accreditations extend across many technical disciplines, including working-level and reference-level capabilities. We believe our scope of accreditation to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 to be the broadest for the industries we serve.

To reinforce our belief in the importance of calibration quality, we are leveraging a branding campaign for our Service segment that is centered around three simple words – “Calibrated by Transcat®”. We believe we have established a strong, differentiated brand that has a deep and meaningful association with quality, compliance and control, and that the phrase “Calibrated by Transcat®” will be synonymous with risk reduction and quality compliance.

Acquired calibration labs might use other quality registration systems. We continually evaluate when to integrate acquired quality systems with the focus on minimizing business disruptions and disruptions to our customers while maintaining our commitment to quality.

Our scopes of accreditation can be found at http://www.transcat.com/calibration-services/accreditation/calibration-lab-certificates.

Distribution Segment

Distribution Summary. We distribute professional grade test, measurement and control instrumentation throughout North America and internationally. Our customers use test and measurement instruments to ensure that their processes, and ultimately their end products, are within specification. Utilization of such diagnostic instrumentation also allows for continuous improvement processes to be in place, increasing the accuracy of their measurements. The industrial test and measurement instrumentation market, in those geographic areas where we predominately operate, has historically been serviced by broad-based national equipment distributors and niche or specialty-focused organizations such as Transcat. We offer value-added services such as calibration/certification of equipment purchases, equipment rentals, used equipment for sale, and equipment kitting.

We believe that a customer chooses a distributor based on a number of different criteria, including product availability, price, ease of doing business, timely delivery and accuracy of orders, consistent product quality, technical competence of the representative serving them and availability of value-added services. The decision to buy is generally made by plant engineers, quality managers, or their purchasing personnel, and products are typically obtained from one or more distributors as replacements, upgrades, or for expansion of manufacturing and research and development facilities. As a result, sales to Distribution customers are somewhat unpredictable and potentially non-recurring. Our online presence, including our website and e-newsletters, master catalog, supplemental mailings, and other sales and marketing activities are designed to create interest and maintain a constant presence in front of our customers to ensure we receive the order when they are ready to purchase.

Table of Contents

We provide our customers with value-added services, including technical support, to ensure our customers receive the right product for their application, and more comprehensive instrument suitability studies to customers in regulated industries who are concerned about the technical uncertainties that their testing or in-process instruments may bring to a process. We consider our biggest value-added service for our Distribution customers is the option to have calibration service performed on their new product purchases prior to shipment, allowing them to place newly acquired equipment directly into service upon receipt, saving downtime. We also offer online procurement, credit card payment options, same day shipment of in-stock items, kitted products, the option to rent, training programs and a variety of custom product offerings. Items are regularly added to and deleted from our product offerings on the basis of customer demand, recommendations of suppliers, sales volumes and other factors. Because of the breadth of our product and service offerings, we are often a “one-stop shop” for our customers who gain operational efficiency by dealing with just one distributor for most or all of their test and measurement instrumentation needs.

We continue to focus on higher margin channels such as rentals to bolster profitability in the Distribution segment. To remain competitive, we are focusing on brand consolidation along with inventory investments to support our overall strategy of being a value-added distributor that supports our customers and Service segment. Additional areas of focus include consumable products within the life science market which is intended to offset competitive pressures in our legacy distribution business.

Distribution Marketing and Sales. We market, create demand and sell to our customers through multiple direct sales channels including our website, digital and print advertising, proactive outbound sales and an inbound call center. Our outbound and inbound sales teams are staffed with technically trained personnel who are available to help guide product selection. Our website serves as a sales channel for our products and services, and provides search capability, detailed product information, in-stock availability, selection guides, demo videos and downloadable product specification sheets. We have made investments in our website to implement the latest marketing technologies which allow us to provide an intuitive customer experience, with simple product comparison and quoting, ease at checkout and automated post-order follow-up. We also operate and maintain several industry-specific service websites, obtained through recent acquisitions. For example, the URL www.pipettes.com was obtained in connection with the acquisition of TTE Laboratories, Inc. (now known as pipettes.com). Pipettes.com focuses on selling pipettes, pipette supplies and related services to customers.

We use a multichannel approach to reach our customers and prospective customers including our master catalog, periodic supplemental catalogs, website, e-newsletters, and other direct sales and marketing programs. Our digital marketing strategy includes ongoing investment in search engine optimization, application-specific digital content, pay-per-click search engine advertising, and product listings on online marketplaces such as Amazon and Google Shopping. We continue to invest in back-end technologies designed to provide a seamless customer experience across all our marketing channels.

As a result of strong relationships with our product vendors and our historical marketing program results, we have the opportunity to carry out co-branded marketing initiatives, aimed at our existing customers and our prospective customer base, for which we receive cooperative advertising support. These co-branded marketing initiatives typically feature specific vendors, new products or targeted product categories and take the form of direct mailers, web-based initiatives or outbound sales efforts.

Distribution Competition. The distribution market for industrial test and measurement instrumentation is fragmented and highly competitive. Our competitors range from large national distributors and manufacturers that sell directly to customers to small local distributors and online distributors. Key competitive factors typically include customer service and support, quality, lead time, inventory availability, brand recognition and price. To address our customers’ needs for technical support and product application assistance, we employ a staff of highly trained technical sales specialists. In order to maintain this competitive advantage, technical training is an integral part of developing our sales staff. To differentiate ourselves from competitors, we offer pre-shipment calibration or performance data reports which allow customers to receive our products and immediately place them into service, saving them downtime and money.

Online distributors, including Amazon, which typically sell lower price-point products, have become prominent competitors for sales of handheld test and measurement equipment, competing primarily on price. While online competitors lack the value-added services we offer in our Distribution segment, they have been successful in capturing some market share in the worldwide market for test and measurement instruments. To stay ahead of growing competition from these online distributors and in keeping with the general trend of increased use of e-commerce, we continue to invest in our digital platform including a well-indexed website with improved design and functionality. In addition, we have diversified our offerings by expanding the product lines that we offer and adding higher gross margin equipment rentals and used equipment sales, which we believe makes Transcat unique among our competitors.

Distribution Suppliers and Purchasing. We believe that effective purchasing is a key element to maintaining and enhancing our position as a provider of high-quality test and measurement instruments. We frequently evaluate our purchase requirements and suppliers’ offerings to obtain products at the best possible cost. We obtain our products from approximately 400 suppliers of brand name and private-labeled equipment. In fiscal year 2025, our top vendor accounted for approximately 20% of our aggregate Distribution sales and our top 10 vendors accounted for approximately 45% of our aggregate Distribution sales.

We plan our product mix and inventory stock to best serve the anticipated needs of our customers, whose individual purchases vary in size. We can usually ship our top selling products to our customers the same day they are ordered.

Distribution Vendor Rebates. We have agreements with certain product vendors that provide for rebates based on meeting a specified cumulative level of purchases and/or incremental distribution sales. These rebates are recorded as a reduction of cost of distribution sales. Purchase rebates are calculated and recorded quarterly based upon our volume of purchases with specific vendors during the quarter. Point of sale rebate programs that are based on year-over-year sales performance on a calendar year basis are recorded as earned, on a quarterly basis, based upon the estimated level of annual achievement. Point of sale rebate programs that are based on year-over-year sales performance on a quarterly basis are recorded as earned in the respective quarter. The Company recorded vendor rebates of $0.9 million in fiscal year 2025 and $0.6 million in fiscal years 2024 and 2023, respectively, as a reduction of cost of distribution sales.

Distribution Operations. Our Distribution operations primarily take place at our 48,500 square-foot facility in Rochester, New York which includes 17,000 square feet of warehouse space. The Rochester location also fulfills orders for rental equipment, serves as our corporate headquarters, houses our customer service, sales and administrative functions, and is a Calibration Service Center. We also have two smaller warehouse facilities. Our Vista, California and Houston, Texas warehouses fulfill orders for used equipment and rental equipment. In fiscal year 2025, we shipped approximately 30,000 product orders.

Distribution Backlog. Distribution orders include orders for instruments that we routinely stock in our inventory, customized products, and other products ordered less frequently, which we do not stock. Pending product shipments are primarily backorders but also include products that are requested to be calibrated in one of our Calibration Service Centers prior to shipment, orders required by the customer to be shipped complete or at a future date, and other orders awaiting final credit or management review prior to shipment. Our total backlog was $3.3 million and $5.1 million as of March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024, respectively.

CUSTOMER SERVICE AND SUPPORT

Key elements of our customer service approach are our business development sales team, outbound sales team, account management team, inbound sales and customer service organization. To ensure the quality of service provided, we monitor our customer service through customer surveys, call monitoring and daily statistical reports.

INFORMATION REGARDING EXPORT SALES

In fiscal year 2025, approximately 10% of our total revenue resulted from sales to customers outside the United States. Of those export sales in fiscal year 2025, approximately 9% were denominated in U.S. dollars, 73% were denominated in Canadian dollars and 18% were denominated in Euros. Our revenue is subject to the customary risks of operating in an international environment, including the potential imposition of trade or foreign exchange restrictions, tariff and other tax increases, fluctuations in exchange rates and unstable political situations, any one or more of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, cash flows, balance sheet or results of operations. See “Foreign Currency” in Item 7A. of Part II and Note 7 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in this report for further details.

INFORMATION SYSTEMS

We utilize a turnkey enterprise software solution from Infor, Inc. (“Infor”) called Application Plus to manage our business and operations segments. This software includes a suite of fully integrated modules to manage our business functions, including customer service, warehouse management, inventory management, financial management, customer relations management and business intelligence. This solution is a fully mature business package and has been subject to more than 20 years of refinement. We utilize customer relationship management (“CRM”) software offered by SalesForce.com, Inc., which is strategically partnered with Infor, allowing us to fully integrate the CRM software with our Infor enterprise software.

We also utilize CalTrak®, our proprietary document and asset management system, to manage documentation, workflow and customers’ assets within and amongst most of our Calibration Service Centers. In addition to functioning as an internal documentation, workflow, and asset management system, CalTrak®, through C3®, provides customers with web-based calibration cycle management service and access to documentation relating to services completed by Transcat. Certain recent acquisitions utilize either third-party or their own proprietary calibration management systems. We continually evaluate when to integrate these acquired systems with a focus on obtaining operational synergies while imposing minimal disruption to customers.

As a result, we might not be able to maintain our domain names or obtain comparable domain names, which could harm our business.

SEASONALITY

Our business has certain historical seasonal factors. Historically, our fiscal fourth quarter has been stronger than our other fiscal quarters due to the operating cycles of our industrial sector customers.

FISCAL YEAR

We operate on a 52/53-week fiscal year, ending the last Saturday in March. In a 52-week fiscal year, each of the four quarters is a 13-week period. In a 53-week fiscal year, the last quarter is a 14-week period. Fiscal year 2025 consisted of 52 weeks and fiscal year 2024 consisted of 53 weeks. Fiscal year 2026 which ends on March 28, 2026 (“fiscal year 2026”) will have 52 weeks.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

We believe that we are in compliance with federal, state, and local provisions relating to the protection of the environment, and that continued compliance will not have any material effect on our capital expenditures, earnings, or competitive position.

HUMAN CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

As of March 29, 2025, we had 1,245 employees, 1,123 of whom were employed in the United States and 121 employed outside the United States. None of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements or work councils. Overall, we consider our employee relations to be good and believe our culture to be central to the success of the Company.

Health and Safety. The health and safety of our employees is of utmost importance to us. We have enhanced our safety program with additional training, communications, and internal risk and hazard assessments. We conduct policy and procedure reviews to ensure compliance with health and safety guidelines and regulatory requirements. We provide protective gear (e.g., eye protection, masks, and gloves) as required by applicable standards and as appropriate. Our goal is to achieve a level of work-related injuries as close to zero as possible through continuous investment in our safety program.

Hiring Practices. We seek to recruit and hire the most qualified people for our open positions without regard to protected status (age, color, disability, genetic predisposition or carrier status, national origin, race, religion, sex (including pregnancy, sexual orientation, and gender identity), status as a protected veteran or as a member of any other protected group or status).

Non-Harassment. We are committed to maintaining a workplace free from all forms of unlawful harassment and discrimination. Our commitment to a discrimination-free work environment is reflected in our employee training, in particular, with respect to our policies against harassment (including sexual harassment) in the workplace.

Wellness. Our Calibrated Wellness Program prioritizes our employees’ well-being and is designed to enhance their health. Our program includes wellness resources, health education, pharmaceutical cost guidance, and a no-cost Employee Assistance Program, which includes worldwide access to visits with mental health care providers. Our program also incentivizes health and well-being by providing reduced health insurance premiums for employees who complete certain actions that encourage health and wellness.

Compensation and Benefits. Our compensation and benefits program is designed to attract and reward individuals who demonstrate the ability and desire to enhance our workplace culture, support our values, drive our operational and strategic goals, and create long-term value for our shareholders.

We provide employees with competitive compensation packages that include base salary and may also include annual incentive bonuses and/or long-term incentive awards, depending upon the employee’s position. We believe that a compensation program with both short-term and long-term incentive awards provides fair and competitive compensation and aligns employee and shareholder interests. In addition to salary and equity compensation, we also offer employees benefits including health (medical, dental and vision), life and disability insurance, paid time off, paid parental leave, tuition benefits, and a 401(k) plan with a Company match.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the following risks and all other information included in this report. The risks and uncertainties described below and elsewhere in this report are not the only ones facing our business. If any of the following risks were to actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations would likely suffer.

Macroeconomic and Business Risks

Adverse changes in economic and market conditions, including an ongoing inflationary environment, or uncertainty about future market conditions, may result in increased costs of operations and negatively impact the credit and securities markets generally, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and the market price of our common stock. Our results of operations and the implementation of our business strategy could be materially and adversely affected by general conditions in the U.S. and global economy, including financial and economic conditions that are outside of our control. We are subject to risks arising from adverse changes in general economic market conditions, including supply chain delays or interruptions, labor shortages, wage pressures, the ongoing inflationary environment, changes in interest rates, geopolitical events, political instability, global health crises, including epidemics and pandemics, or interruptions and other force majeure events.

Inflation has persisted in the United States and globally due in part to geopolitical events, a rise in energy prices, and strong consumer demand. An inflationary environment can increase our cost of labor as well as our energy and other operating costs which may have a material adverse impact on our financial results. In addition, economic conditions could impact and reduce the number of customers who purchase our products or services as credit becomes more expensive or unavailable. Although interest rates may remain relatively high for a sustained period, inflation may continue or prices for goods and energy may rise as a result of the imposition or threatened imposition of tariffs. Further, uncertainty resulting from interest rate policy, trade policy or changes to interest rates in the future could have a negative effect on the securities markets generally which may, in turn, have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock. Further, uncertainty about future economic conditions could negatively affect our current and prospective customers causing them to delay purchase of services or test and measurement instruments. Poor economic conditions could materially and adversely impact our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows.

The industries in which we compete are highly competitive, and we may not be able to compete successfully. Within our Service segment, we provide calibration services and compete in an industry that is highly fragmented and is composed of companies ranging from internationally recognized and accredited corporations to non-accredited sole proprietors, resulting in a tremendous range of service levels and capabilities. Also, within our Service segment, we provide compliance services and compete in an industry that is composed of both small local and regional service providers and large multi-national companies who are also OEMs. Within our Service segment, some of our larger competitors may have broader service capabilities and may have greater name recognition than us. Some manufacturers of the products we sell may also offer calibration and compliance services for their products.

Within our Distribution segment, we compete with numerous companies, including several major manufacturers and distributors to make product sales. Most of the products we sell are available from several sources and our customers tend to have relationships with several distributors. Competitors in the product distribution industry could also obtain exclusive rights to market particular products, which we would then be unable to market. Manufacturers could also increase their efforts to sell directly to end-users and bypass distributors like us. Industry consolidation among distributors, the unavailability of products, whether due to our inability to gain access to products or interruptions in supply from manufacturers, or the emergence of new competitors could also increase competition and adversely affect our business or results of operations.

In each of the industries in which we compete, some of our competitors have greater financial and other resources than we do, which could allow them to compete more successfully. In the future, we may be unable to compete successfully and competitive pressures may reduce our sales.

Table of Contents

We face significant competition in our Distribution segment, including from suppliers and web-based distributors, to make product sales and to source products. We may not be able to compete successfully. We face substantial and increased competition throughout the world, especially in our Distribution segment. The competition is changing, with certain of our vendors engaging directly with customers and web-based distributors increasing their market share. Some of our competitors are much larger than us. Changes in the competitive landscape pose new challenges that could adversely affect our ability to compete. Entry or expansion of other vendors into this market may establish competitors that have larger customer bases and substantially greater financial and other resources with which to pursue marketing and distribution of products. Their current customer base and relationships, as well as their relationships and ability to negotiate with manufacturers, may provide them with a competitive advantage. Additionally, if our vendors sell directly to customers, they may choose not to sell to us or to do so on less favorable and more costly terms, which could have a material and adverse impact on our results of operations. If we are unable to effectively compete with our current and future competitors, our ability to sell products could be harmed and negatively impact our Distribution segment. Any erosion of our competitive position could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

Our Service segment has a concentration of customers in the life science and other FDA-regulated businesses, as well as the industrial manufacturing, aerospace, defense, energy and utilities industries. A number of our Service segment customers operate life science, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and other FDA-regulated businesses. Federal and state budget pressures and changes in grant allocation policies may result in lower funding for certain of our life science customers, which may cause those customers to delay or halt spending on capital-intensive projects. We also serve the industrial manufacturing, energy and utilities, chemical manufacturing, aerospace and defense industries. In the oil and gas industry, customer demand for our services is sensitive to fluctuations in commodity prices, access to capital, and the regulatory environment, with less demand expected in a deregulatory environment. The concentration of our customer base affects our overall risk profile, since a significant portion of our customers would be similarly affected by changes in economic, political, regulatory, and other industry conditions. An abrupt or unforeseen change in conditions in these industries could adversely affect customer demand for our services, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial results.

Any impairment of goodwill or intangible assets could negatively impact our results of operations. Our goodwill and intangible assets are subject to an impairment test on an annual basis and are also tested whenever events and circumstances indicate that goodwill and/or intangible assets may be impaired. Any excess goodwill and/or indefinite-lived intangible assets value resulting from the impairment test must be written off in the period of determination. Intangible assets (other than goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets) are amortized over the useful life of such assets. In addition, we may record goodwill when we acquire or make an investment in a business based on the purchase price and the value of the acquired tangible and intangible assets. We have significantly increased our goodwill because of our acquisitions. We may subsequently experience unforeseen issues with the businesses we acquire, which may adversely affect the anticipated returns of the business or value of the intangible assets and trigger an evaluation of the recoverability of the recorded goodwill and intangible assets for the business. Determinations of significant write-offs of goodwill or intangible assets because of an impairment test or any accelerated amortization of other intangible assets could have a material negative impact on our results of operations and financial condition.

Tariffs imposed or threatened by the United States and other countries, as well as changing trade relations, regional and international conflicts, and political conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. Changes in United States and foreign governments’ trade policies, as well as volatility caused by regional and international conflicts, such as the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, Israel and Hamas, and the political climate in the United States, China, and Taiwan, have resulted in, and may continue to result in, tariffs on imports into and exports from the United States. For example, the United States has recently instituted or proposed changes in trade policies that include the negotiation or termination of trade agreements, the imposition of higher tariffs on imports into the United States, economic sanctions on individuals, corporations or countries, and other government regulations affecting trade between the United States and other countries. A number of other nations have proposed or instituted similar measures directed at trade with the United States in response. Tariffs on certain products can increase our costs of doing business. If we are unable to recover these costs, our profit margins may be negatively impacted. Similarly, if our customers are negatively impacted by the imposition or threatened imposition of tariffs, it may result in negative sentiment which may negatively impact demand for our products and services, which could negatively impact our results of operations. If our vendors or suppliers are unable to source products we purchase, our Distribution business may be negatively impacted. Diminished trade relations, conflicts between the United States and other countries, and any escalation of tariffs could have a material adverse effect on our financial performance and results of operations.

Negative publicity and other reputational harm could impact the value of our brand and materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations. Negative publicity and other reputational harm relating to events or activities attributed to us, our policies, our employees or others associated with us, whether or not justified, may tarnish our reputation and reduce the value of our brand. Additionally, disclosure of our corporate governance practices, such as our environmental, social and governance initiatives, may draw negative publicity from our shareholders and other stakeholders. If our brand is negatively impacted, we may lose existing customer relationships, which would reduce our sales and negatively impact our results of operations and financial condition, and we may be unable to attract and retain key personnel, which would negatively impact our prospects.

Risks Related to Acquisitions

We may not successfully integrate business acquisitions. We completed two acquisitions during fiscal year 2025 and three acquisitions during fiscal year 2024. We have a robust and diverse acquisition pipeline and may complete additional acquisitions in the future. If we fail to accurately assess and successfully integrate any recent or future business acquisitions, we may not achieve the anticipated benefits, which could result in lower revenues, unanticipated operating expenses, reduced profitability and dilution of our book value per share. Successfully integrating acquisitions involves many challenges, including:

● | The difficulty of integrating acquired operations and personnel with our existing operations;
● | Implementing or remediating controls, procedures, and policies at the acquired company;
● | Integrating the acquired company’s accounting, enterprise resource management and other administrative systems;
● | In the case of foreign acquisitions, the need to integrate operations across different cultures and languages and to address the particular economic, currency, political, and regulatory risks associated with specific countries;
● | Currency and regulatory risks associated with operations in foreign countries;
● | The difficulty of developing, marketing and forecasting demand for new products and services;
● | Assessing the technology infrastructure and cyber and data security risk profile of the acquired company and integrating its systems into our IT systems, networks and services;
● | Diverting management’s attention while evaluating, negotiating and integrating acquisitions;
● | Our exposure to unforeseen liabilities of acquired companies; and
● | The potential loss of key employees of an acquired operation.

In addition, we may seek acquisitions in adjacent or new markets where we have limited experience. Challenges in assessing acquisitions in adjacent or new markets and integrating such acquisitions due to our level of experience in such markets could result in a material adverse impact on our financial condition, operating results and stock price. For example, the acquisition of NEXA (recently rebranded to Transcat Solutions), a service segment business focused on the technical, consulting and staffing solutions market, expanded the scope of services we offer beyond our traditional calibration services and required more time for us to fully integrate into our operating plan.

In addition, an acquisition could adversely impact cash flows and/or operating results, and dilute shareholder interests for many reasons, including:

● | Charges to our income to reflect the impairment of acquired intangible assets, including goodwill;
● | Contingent consideration payments;
● | Agreements to provide indemnification for certain potential liabilities;
● | Interest costs and debt service requirements for any debt incurred in connection with an acquisition or new business venture; and
● | Any issuance of securities in connection with an acquisition or new business venture that dilutes or lessens the rights of our current shareholders.

If the integration of any or all of our acquisitions or future acquisitions is not successful, it could have a material adverse impact on our operating results and stock price.

Our future business acquisition efforts may not be successful, which may limit our growth or adversely affect our results of operations, and financing future acquisitions could result in shareholder dilution and/or increase our leverage. Business acquisitions are an important part of our growth strategy. If we identify an appropriate acquisition candidate, we may not be able to successfully negotiate terms or finance the acquisition. If economic downturns or other matters of national or global concern continue for an extensive period of time or recur, our ability to pursue and consummate potential acquisitions could be materially adversely affected. In addition, to successfully complete targeted acquisitions, we may issue additional equity securities that could dilute our shareholders’ ownership, or we may incur additional debt, which would increase our leverage and our risk of default under our existing credit facility. If we fail to successfully acquire businesses, our growth and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

The indemnification provisions of acquisition agreements by which we have acquired companies or may, in the future, acquire companies may not fully protect us and as a result we may face unexpected liabilities. Certain of the acquisition agreements by which we have acquired companies or may, in the future, acquire companies generally require the former owners to indemnify us against certain liabilities related to the operation of the company before we acquired it. In most of these agreements, however, the liability of the former owners is limited, and certain former owners may be unable to meet their indemnification responsibilities. We cannot assure you that these indemnification provisions will protect us fully or at all, and as a result we may face unexpected liabilities that adversely affect our financial results.

Operational Risks

Cybersecurity incidents could adversely affect our business by causing a disruption to our operations, a compromise or corruption of our confidential information and/or damage to our business relationships, all of which could negatively impact our business, results of operations or financial condition. We rely extensively on information technology (“IT”) systems, some of which are provided by third parties, to support our business activities, including for orders and the storage, processing and transmission of our electronic, business-related, information assets used in or necessary to conduct business. The data we store and process may include customer payment information, personal information concerning our employees, confidential financial information and other types of sensitive business-related information. Numerous and evolving cybersecurity threats pose potential risks to the security of our IT systems, networks and services, as well as the confidentiality, availability and integrity of our data. Some of our office personnel work in remote environments which may exacerbate various cybersecurity risks to our business, including an increased risk of phishing and other social engineering attacks, and an increased risk of unauthorized dissemination of sensitive personal, proprietary or other confidential information. Global cybersecurity threats can range from uncoordinated individual attempts to gain unauthorized access to our IT systems to sophisticated and targeted measures known as advanced persistent threats. The techniques used in these attacks change frequently and may be difficult to detect for periods of time and we may face difficulties in anticipating and implementing adequate preventative measures. While we employ comprehensive measures to prevent, detect, address and mitigate these threats (including access controls, data encryption, vulnerability assessments, management training, continuous monitoring of our IT networks and systems and maintenance of backup and protective systems), cybersecurity incidents, depending on their nature and scope, could potentially result in the misappropriation, destruction, corruption or unavailability of critical data or proprietary information and the disruption of business operations. The potential consequences of a material cybersecurity incident include reputational damage, compromised employee, customer, or third-party information, litigation with third parties, regulatory actions, and increased cybersecurity protection and remediation costs, which in turn could adversely affect our business and results of operations. We maintain insurance intended to cover certain cybersecurity events, but such insurance may not cover all risks and losses that we experience. In addition, the laws and regulations governing security of data on IT systems and otherwise held by companies is evolving and adding layers of complexity in the form of new requirements and increasing costs of attempting to protect IT systems and data and complying with new cybersecurity regulations.

If we experience a significant disruption in, or breach in security of, our IT systems, or if we fail to implement new systems and software successfully, our business could be adversely affected. Our IT systems may be susceptible to damage, disruptions or shutdowns due to power outages, hardware failures, telecommunication failures, user errors, catastrophes or other unforeseen events. Our IT systems also may experience interruptions, delays or cessations of service or produce errors in connection with system integration, software upgrades or system migration work that takes place from time to time. In addition, technology resources may be strained due to our remote users. If we were to experience a prolonged system disruption in the IT systems that involve our interactions with customers or suppliers, it could result in the loss of sales and customers and significant incremental costs, which could adversely affect our business.

Our revenue and ability to achieve our stated corporate objectives depends on our senior management and our ability to retain recruit, train and retain quality employees. Our success is dependent on our senior management and our ability to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel, especially skilled service technicians. Competition for senior management is intense, and we may not be successful in attracting and retaining key personnel. Qualified skilled service technicians are in high demand and are subject to competing offers. The ability to meet our labor needs while controlling costs associated with hiring and training new employees is subject to external factors such as unemployment levels, prevailing wage rates and the available labor pool in locations where we operate. The loss of services of any member of our senior management team or key employees, and the inability to attract and retain other qualified personnel, especially skilled service technicians, could affect our ability to achieve our stated corporate objectives and could adversely impact our business and results of operations.

The profitability of our Transcat Solutions business depends to a large extent on our ability to achieve or maintain adequate utilization and pricing rates for our technical service providers. In our Service segment, Transcat Solutions provides all of its services in the technical, consulting and staffing solutions market by providing services to improve asset management programs for our customers. The profitability of Transcat Solutions depends in part on ensuring that our technical service providers maintain adequate utilization rates (i.e., the percentage of our provider’s working hours devoted to billable activities). Our utilization rates are affected by a number of factors, including:

● | The number, scope and timing of ongoing customer engagements;
● | The timing of the commencement, completion and termination of engagements, which in many cases is unpredictable and subject to forces beyond our control;
● | Our ability to continually secure new business engagements;
● | Our ability to transition technical service providers promptly from completed projects to new assignments, and to engage newly-hired technical service providers quickly in revenue-generating activities;
● | Our ability to forecast demand for our services and thereby maintain appropriate headcount in each of our geographies and workforces;
● | Unanticipated changes in the scope or timing of customer engagements;
● | Our need to devote time and resources to sales, training, professional development and other non-billable activities;
● | Our ability to retain key colleagues and consulting professionals;
● | Conditions affecting the industries in which our customers operate; and
● | General financial and economic conditions.

For example, in the Transcat Solutions business, our revenue has been negatively impacted in part by delayed starts for customer projects, which has prevented us from fully utilizing all of our technical service providers. If the utilization rate for our technical service providers declines, our revenues, profit margin and profitability could decline, and our results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

The profitability of our Service segment, including the Transcat Solutions business, depends in part on the prices we are able to charge for our services. The prices we charge for our services, including the Transcat Solutions business, are affected by a number of factors, including:

● | Customers’ perception of our ability to add value through our services;
● | The market demand for the services we provide;
● | Our ability to develop new services and the introduction of new services by competitors;
● | The pricing policies of our competitors;
● | The extent to which our customers develop in-house or other capabilities to perform the services that they might otherwise purchase from us; and
● | General financial and economic conditions.

If we are unable to achieve and maintain adequate rates for our services, our profit margin and profitability could decline, and our results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

If we do not effectively compete in the test and measurement equipment market, our operating results may be adversely affected. We compete in the rental and distribution market on the basis of a number of factors, including equipment availability, price, service and reliability. Some of our competitors may offer similar equipment for rent or purchase at lower prices and may offer more extensive servicing, or financing options. In addition, if the supply of equipment available on the market significantly increases, demand for and pricing of our rental and distribution products could be adversely impacted, lowering our gross margins. Further, customers confronting competing budget priorities and more limited resources could lead to less demand for equipment and increased pressure on pricing. Failure to adequately forecast the adoption of and demand for equipment may cause us not to meet our customers’ equipment requirements and may adversely affect our operating results.

If we fail to adapt our technology to meet customer needs and preferences, the demand for our products and services may diminish. Our future success will depend on our ability to develop services and solutions that keep pace with technological change, evolving industry standards and changing customer preferences in the markets we serve. For example, we sell our products and services to customers in several industries that may experience rapid technological changes, new product introductions, and evolving industry standards, including highly regulated industries. We cannot be sure that we will be successful in adapting existing or developing new technology or services in a timely or cost-effective manner or that the solutions we do develop will be successful in the marketplace. Our failure to keep pace with changes in technology, industry standards and customer preferences in the markets we serve could diminish our ability to retain and attract customers and retain our competitive position, which could adversely impact our business and results of operations.

We rely on our CalTrak®, Application Plus (our enterprise resource planning system (“ERP”)) and other management information systems for inventory management, distribution, workflow, accounting and other functions. If our CalTrak®, Application Plus or other management information systems fail to adequately perform these functions, experience an interruption in their operation or a security breach, our business and results of operations could be adversely affected. The efficient operation of our business depends on our management information systems. We rely on our CalTrak®, Application Plus and other management information systems to effectively manage accounting and financial functions, customer service, warehouse management, order entry, order fulfillment, inventory replenishment, documentation, asset management, and workflow. Our management information systems are vulnerable to damage or interruption from computer viruses or hackers, natural or man-made disasters, vandalism, terrorist attacks, power loss, or other computer systems, internet, telecommunications or data network failures. Any such interruptions to our management information systems could disrupt our business and could result in decreased revenues, increased overhead costs, excess inventory or product shortages, causing our business and results of operations to suffer. In addition, our management information systems are vulnerable to security breaches. Our security measures or those of our third-party service providers may fail to detect or prevent such security breaches. Security breaches could result in the unauthorized publication of our confidential business or proprietary information, the unauthorized release of customer, vendor, or employee data and payment information, the violation of privacy or other laws, and the exposure to litigation, any of which could harm our business and results of operations.

Our ERP is aging and may not be capable of integrating management information systems that we use or are used by companies we acquire, and we may experience issues from any implementation of a new ERP or be required to operate some management information systems separately from our ERP. We have an ERP to assist with the collection, storage, management and interpretation of data from our business activities to support future growth and to integrate significant processes. Although we use current versions of software and have support agreements in place, due to the age of our ERP it may not be capable of integrating management information systems that we use or are used by companies we acquire. We anticipate that a new ERP will be required to be implemented sometime in the future. ERP implementations are complex and time-consuming and involve substantial expenditures on system software and implementation activities, as well as changes in business processes. Our ERP system is critical to our ability to accurately maintain books and records, record transactions, provide important information to our management and prepare our consolidated financial statements. ERP implementations also require the transformation of business and financial processes in order to reap the benefits of the ERP system; any such transformation involves risks inherent in the conversion to a new computer system, including loss of information and potential disruption to our normal operations. Any disruptions, delays or deficiencies in the design and implementation of a new ERP system could adversely affect our ability to process orders, provide services and customer support, send invoices and track payments, fulfill contractual obligations or otherwise operate our business. Additionally, if the ERP system does not operate as intended, the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting could be adversely affected or our ability to assess our internal controls adequately could be delayed.

We depend on manufacturers to supply inventory to our Distribution segment and if our vendors fail to provide desired products to us, increase prices, or fail to timely deliver products, or if supply chain delays, interruptions, or product shortages occur, our revenue and gross profit could suffer. Similar to other distributors in our industry, we occasionally experience supplier shortages and are unable to purchase our desired volume of products. Our ability to offer a wide variety of products to our customers is dependent upon our ability to obtain adequate product supply from manufacturers and other suppliers. Any disruption in our sources of supply, particularly of the most commonly sold items, could result in a loss of revenues, reduced margins, and damage to our relationships with customers. Supply shortages may occur as a result of unanticipated increases in demand or difficulties in production or delivery. In addition, we may be adversely impacted by disruptions within our supply chain network. Such disruptions may result from weather-related events, natural disasters, international trade disputes or trade policy changes or restrictions, tariffs or import-related taxes, third-party strikes, lock-outs, work stoppages or slowdowns, shortages of supply chain labor and truck drivers, shipping capacity constraints, military conflicts, acts of terrorism, public health issues (including pandemics or quarantines), civil unrest or other factors beyond our control. When shortages occur, our suppliers often allocate products among distributors. The loss of, or a substantial decrease in the availability of, products from our suppliers or the loss of key supplier arrangements could adversely impact our financial condition, operating results, and cash flows, as well as our ability to benefit from ongoing supply chain initiatives.

Our future success may be affected by our current and future indebtedness. Under our credit agreement, as of March 29, 2025, we owed $32.7 million to our secured creditor, a commercial bank, including $1.8 million borrowed under a $15.0 million term loan to fund acquisitions and provide additional working capital. We may borrow additional funds in the future to support our growth and working capital needs. We are required to meet financial tests on a quarterly basis and comply with other covenants customary in secured financings. Although we believe that we will continue to comply with such covenants, if we do not remain in compliance with such covenants, our lender may demand immediate repayment of amounts outstanding. Furthermore, we are dependent on credit from manufacturers of our products to fund our inventory purchases. If our debt burden increases to high levels, such manufacturers may restrict our credit. Our cash requirements will depend on numerous factors, including the rate of growth of our revenues, the timing and levels of products purchased, payment terms, and credit limits from manufacturers, the timing and level of our accounts receivable collections and our ability to manage our business profitably. Our ability to satisfy our existing obligations, whether or not under our secured credit facility, will depend upon our future operating performance, which may be impacted by prevailing economic conditions and financial, business, and other factors described in this report, many of which are beyond our control.

We face risks associated with foreign currency rate fluctuations. We currently transact a portion of our business in foreign currencies, namely the Canadian dollar and the Euro. During fiscal years 2025 and 2024, approximately 10% of our total revenues were denominated in Canadian dollars and Euros. Conducting business in currencies other than U.S. dollars subjects us to fluctuations in currency exchange rates that could have a negative impact on our reported operating results. Fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to the Canadian dollar and the Euro impact our revenues, cost of revenues and operating margins and result in foreign currency transaction gains and losses. During fiscal year 2025, the value of the U.S. dollar relative to one Canadian dollar and to one Euro ranged from 1.34 to 1.45 and from 0.89 to 0.98, respectively.

We continually utilize short-term foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce the risk that future earnings denominated in Canadian dollars would be adversely affected by changes in currency exchange rates. However, this strategy does not eliminate our exposure. If there is a significant or prolonged downturn in the Canadian dollar or the Euro, it could have an adverse impact on our business and financial condition.

Our inability to adequately enforce and protect our intellectual property or defend against assertions of infringement could prevent or restrict our ability to compete. We rely on intellectual property in order to maintain a competitive advantage. Our inability to defend against the unauthorized use of these assets could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. Litigation may be necessary to protect our intellectual property rights or defend against claims of infringement. This litigation could result in significant costs and divert our management’s focus away from operations.

Hurricanes, other adverse weather events, national or regional catastrophes or natural disasters could negatively affect the local economies we serve or disrupt our operations, which could have an adverse effect on our business or results of operations. Our market areas include the Gulf Coast and Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States, and Puerto Rico, which are susceptible to hurricanes, and the Western United States, which is susceptible to wildfires. Such weather events and natural disasters can disrupt our operations, result in damage to our properties and negatively affect the local economies in which we operate. Future hurricanes, extreme weather events and natural disasters could result in damage to certain of our facilities and the equipment located at such facilities, or equipment on rent with customers in those areas. Even if our properties suffer no direct damage from such events, the operations of our customers could be disrupted, and our supply chain impacted. In addition, climate change could lead to an increase in intensity or occurrence of hurricanes or other adverse weather events, including severe winter storms. Future occurrences of these events, as well as regional or national catastrophes or natural disasters, and their effects may adversely impact our business or results of operations.

We may be involved in legal proceedings from time to time arising from the operation of our business and, as such, we could incur substantial judgments, fines, legal fees, or other costs. From time to time, we may be the subject of complaints or litigation from customers, employees, vendors, or other third parties for various actions. We also may be involved in litigation involving claims related to breach of contract, tortious conduct, employment and labor law matters, and others. The damages sought against us in these matters could be substantial. Although we maintain liability insurance for certain legal claims, if one or more of the claims were to greatly exceed our insurance coverage limits or if our insurance policies do not cover a claim, our expenses could increase significantly and management’s focus could be diverted away from our operations, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

Risks Related to our Stock

We expect that our quarterly results of operations will fluctuate. Such fluctuations could cause our stock price to decline. A large portion of our expenses for our Service segment, including expenses for facilities, equipment and personnel are relatively fixed. Accordingly, if revenues decline or do not grow as we anticipate, we may not be able to correspondingly reduce our expenses in any particular quarter. Our quarterly revenues and operating results have fluctuated in the past and are likely to do so in the future. Historically, our fiscal third and fourth quarters have been stronger than our fiscal first and second quarters due to industrial operating cycles. Fluctuations in industrial demand for products we sell and services we provide could cause our revenues and operating results to fluctuate. If our operating results in some quarters fail to meet the expectations of stock market analysts and investors, our stock price may decline.

Our stock price may be volatile. The stock market experiences significant price and volume fluctuations that are both related and unrelated to the operating performance of companies. Our stock may be affected by market volatility and by our own performance. The following factors, among others, may have a significant effect on the market price of our common stock:

● | Developments in our relationships with significant customers in our service segment;
● | Developments in our relationships with current or future manufacturers of products we distribute;
● | Announcements by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;
● | Litigation or governmental proceedings or announcements involving us or our industry;
● | Economic and other external factors, such as inflation, changes in interest rates, a recession, disasters or other national or global crises;
● | Public health issues including pandemics and epidemics;
● | Sales of our common stock or other securities in the open market;
● | Repurchases of our common stock on the open market or in privately-negotiated transactions;
● | Period-to-period fluctuations in our operating results; and
● | Our ability to satisfy our debt obligations.

In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted. Securities class action litigation against us could result in significant costs and divert our management’s focus away from our operations, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

The relatively low trading volume of our common stock may limit your ability to sell your shares. Although our shares of common stock are listed on the Nasdaq Global Market, we have historically experienced a relatively low trading volume, averaging approximately 68,000 shares a day in fiscal 2025. If our low trading volume continues in the future, holders of our shares may have difficulty selling shares of our common stock in the manner or at a price that they desire.

If significant existing shareholders sell large numbers of shares of our common stock, our stock price could decline. The market price of our common stock could decline if a large number of our shares are sold in the public market by our existing shareholders or as a result of the perception that such sales could occur. Due to the relatively low trading volume of our common stock, the sale of a large number of shares of our common stock may significantly depress the price of our common stock.

Because we do not intend to declare or pay dividends on our shares of common stock for the foreseeable future, any return to our shareholders will be limited to the increase, if any, of the price of our common stock. We have not declared any cash dividends since our inception and have no current plans to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. Our shareholders have no contractual or other legal right to dividends that have not been declared. Any return to our shareholders will therefore be limited to the increase, if any, in the price of our common stock.

Regulatory Risks

Tax rates applicable to us may change. Tax legislation initiatives could adversely affect our net earnings and tax liabilities. We are subject to the tax laws and regulations of the United States federal, state and local governments, as well as foreign jurisdictions. From time to time, various legislative initiatives may be enacted that could adversely affect our tax positions. Tax laws and regulations are extremely complex and subject to varying interpretations. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 made broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code, such as reducing the Federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%. Any additional modifications to key aspects of the tax code could materially affect our tax obligations and negatively impact our effective tax rate. Although we believe that our tax positions are sound and consistent with applicable laws, regulations and existing precedent, there can be no assurance that our tax positions will not be challenged by relevant tax authorities or that we would be successful in any such challenge.

Changes in accounting standards, legal requirements and the Nasdaq Global Market listing standards, or our ability to comply with any existing requirements or standards, could adversely affect our operating results. Extensive reforms relating to public company financial reporting, corporate governance and ethics, the Nasdaq Global Market listing standards and oversight of the accounting profession have been implemented over the past several years and continue to evolve. Compliance with these rules, regulations and standards that have resulted from such reforms has increased our accounting and legal costs and has required significant management time and attention. In the event that additional rules, regulations or standards are implemented or any of the existing rules, regulations or standards to which we are subject undergoes additional material modification, we could be forced to spend significant financial and management resources to ensure our continued compliance, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations. For example, the additional reporting requirements relating to tracking greenhouse gas emissions and other climate-related disclosure from various U.S. states and foreign jurisdictions could significantly increase our accounting, consulting and legal expenses. Should we be or become unable to comply with any of such rules, regulations and standards, as they presently exist or as they may exist in the future, our results of operations could be adversely affected and the market price of our common stock could decline.

Our international operations expose us to legal and regulatory risks, which could have a material effect on our business. Our international operations are governed by various United States laws and regulations, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”), and other foreign anti-bribery laws. The FCPA and similar anti-corruption laws generally prohibits companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments to foreign government officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Because of our international operations, we are subject to the anti-bribery laws of non-US jurisdictions where we operate. Any alleged or actual violations of these or other relevant regulations may subject us to government scrutiny, severe criminal or civil sanctions and other liabilities and could negatively affect our business, reputation, operating results and financial condition.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY

Cybersecurity Risk Management and Strategy. We have processes for assessing, identifying, and managing cybersecurity threats, and cybersecurity is an integral part of our overall enterprise risk management program which is overseen by our Audit Committee and the Board of Directors. Our strategy includes a comprehensive cybersecurity framework, utilizing advanced technologies and methodologies, such as cloud migrations and deployment of threat detection tools to mitigate potential risks. Continuous risk assessments help us better refine our strategy, guiding the deployment of technical safeguards and shaping our incident response plans. For acquired companies, our integration strategies prioritize establishing comprehensive timelines for harmonizing information security, data privacy, and cybersecurity practices. This includes a strong focus on aligning employee education programs to ensure a seamless transition and uphold security and privacy standards across our entities.

We take a risk-based approach to cybersecurity, which begins with the identification and evaluation of cybersecurity risks or threats that could affect our operations, finances, legal or regulatory compliance, or reputation. The scope of our evaluation encompasses risks that may be associated with both our internally managed IT systems and key business functions and sensitive data operated or managed by third-party service providers, ensuring the service providers adhere to our security standards, thereby safeguarding our integrated operations. The strategic migration of our data centers and infrastructure to secure cloud environments, coupled with the implementation of targeted technical cybersecurity measures, underscores our dedication to establishing foundational security across our users, applications, data, systems, and networks.

We have established a comprehensive incident response plan to swiftly address and recover from cybersecurity incidents, minimizing operational impact. We conduct regular trainings and simulations to enhance our team's awareness and preparedness against cyber threats. Our proactive approach to addressing identified vulnerabilities affirms the continuous improvement of our security posture.

Use of Consultants and Advisors. We engage various third-party cybersecurity service providers to assess and enhance our cybersecurity practices and assist with the protection and monitoring of our systems and information. This encompasses a range of services, including network monitoring, endpoint protection, vulnerability assessments, and penetration testing. Additionally, we engage cybersecurity consultants, auditors, and other third parties, such as a third-party consulting firm, to rigorously evaluate our cyber processes. This includes a comprehensive assessment of our incident response procedures, ensuring they meet the highest standards of readiness and effectiveness.

To ensure the integrity and security of our operations, we have implemented stringent processes to evaluate third-party service providers and vendors that have access to sensitive systems, as well as company and customer data. This evaluation may include due diligence procedures such as assessments of the service provider’s cybersecurity posture or recommendations for specific mitigation controls. Following an assessment, we determine and prioritize service provider risk based on potential threat impact and likelihood. These risk determinations are crucial in driving the level of due diligence and ongoing compliance monitoring required for each service provider.

Board Oversight and Management’s Role. The Board of Directors, both directly and through the delegation of responsibilities to the Audit Committee oversees the proper functioning of our cybersecurity risk management program to ensures strategic alignment and governance of our cybersecurity efforts at the highest level. In particular, the Audit Committee assists the Board of Directors in its oversight of management’s responsibility to assess, manage and mitigate risks associated with our business and operational activities, to administer our various compliance programs, in each case including cybersecurity concerns, and to oversee our information technology systems, processes and data.

Management has implemented robust risk management structures, policies, and procedures, with day-to-day cybersecurity risk management being a core responsibility. Our Chief Information Officer ("CIO") spearheads the assessment and management of cybersecurity risks, ensuring that our strategies and actions are both proactive and responsive to the evolving cybersecurity landscape. Supporting this effort, we have a cross-departmental approach to cyber security management. This ensures that our executive leadership team receives comprehensive quarterly updates on cybersecurity from various teams within the organization. Such updates are instrumental in promoting stakeholder engagement across all levels and enhancing management's oversight of cybersecurity. The content of these updates includes progress on ongoing cybersecurity initiatives, insights from recent threat assessments or incidents, findings and action plans derived from external vulnerability and penetration tests, and key performance metrics aligned with industry standards. Our CIO and our Chief Financial Officer report risks to the Audit Committee on a quarterly basis.

Risks from Material Cybersecurity Threats. Despite ongoing cyber-attacks, such as unauthorized access, phishing, and ransomware, we have not identified any cybersecurity incidents that have materially affected or are reasonably anticipated to have a material effect on our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. Our proactive security measures, alongside those of our third-party vendors, aim to protect our information technology systems and the sensitive data they hold. To bolster our cybersecurity posture, Transcat has engaged a third-party Managed Security Services Provider ("MSSP") to enhance our defensive capabilities. This partnership includes comprehensive vulnerability scanning both internally and externally to detect potential security weaknesses before they can be exploited. Our MSSP also provides round-the-clock monitoring through a 24x7x365 Security Operations Center ("SOC"), safeguarding our digital assets ("Endpoint Detection and Response - EDR"), identities ("Identity Detection and Response - IDR"), and integrating supplemental logging sources such as firewalls and Enterprise Resource Planning systems ("Extended Detection and Response - XDR"). Furthermore, we have established Incident Response as a Service ("IRaaS") to ensure rapid and effective action in the event of a security breach.

The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this annual report. In addition to historical information, the following discussion and analysis includes forward looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors, including those discussed in “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this annual report. See the discussion under “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” beginning on page 1 of this annual report.

OVERVIEW

Operational Overview. We are a leading provider of accredited calibration services, cost control and optimization services, and distribution and rental of value-added professional grade handheld test, measurement, and control instrumentation.

We operate our business through two reportable business segments, Service and Distribution, which offer a comprehensive range of services and products to the same customer base.

Our strength in our Service segment is based upon our wide range of disciplines, our investment in quality systems and our ability to provide accredited calibrations to customers in highly regulated targeted market segments. Our services range from the calibration and repair of a single unit to managing a customer’s entire calibration program. We believe our Service segment offers an opportunity for long-term growth and the potential for continuing revenue from established customers with regular calibration cycles and recurring laboratory instrument service requirements.

Our Service segment has shown consistent revenue growth over the past several years, ending fiscal year 2025 with its 64th consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth. This segment has benefited from both organic growth as well as acquisitions over those 64 quarters. The business acquisitions that we made have been focused on expanding our service capabilities, increasing our geographic reach and leveraging our Calibration Service Centers and other infrastructure to create operational synergies.

27

Table of Contents

Our Service segment revenue growth was 7.0% for fiscal year 2025 from fiscal year 2024. This increase was primarily due to the acquisitions of Martin and Becnel. Acquired revenue, which represents revenue from acquisitions completed after the end of the prior year, was $10.4 million. Service Segment revenue was also impacted by the number of weeks. Fiscal year 2025 had 52 weeks, while fiscal year 2024 had 53 weeks. When adjusted for the 52/53 week impact, organic service revenue increased by 2.7%. The Service segment gross margin decreased by 40 basis points. Service segment gross margin decreases were primarily due to small organic revenue increases offset by decreased margins in the Transcat Solutions business.

In our Distribution segment, we sell and offer for rent, professional grade handheld test and measurement instruments. Because we specialize in professional grade handheld test and measurement instruments, as opposed to a wide array of industrial products, our sales and customer service personnel can provide value-added technical assistance to our customers to aid them in determining what product best meets their particular application requirements. We have expertise in the procurement and sale of used equipment, furthering our ability to add value for our customers. We also have a higher-end electronic test and measurement equipment rental business that augments our organically grown test and measurement equipment rental business. Through our website and sales teams, customers can place orders for test and measurement instruments and can elect to have their purchased instruments calibrated and certified by our Calibration Service Centers before shipment as well as on regular post-purchase intervals. Pre-shipment calibration and certification allows our customers to place newly purchased instruments into service immediately upon receipt.

Sales in our Distribution segment are generally not consumable items but are instruments purchased as replacements, upgrades or for expansion of manufacturing or research and development facilities. As such, this segment can be heavily impacted by changes in the economic environment. As customers increase or decrease capital and discretionary spending, our Distribution sales will typically be directly impacted.

In fiscal year 2025, Distribution segment sales increased by 7.8%. This increase in sales primarily due to sales from the acquisition of Becnel and increases in traditional rental products.

The Distribution segment gross margin in fiscal year 2025 increased by 20 basis points. The increase in segment gross margin was primarily due to increased margins from rental revenue, which now includes Becnel, and a favorable mix of higher margin products sold.

Initiatives implemented within this segment include adding new in-demand vendors and product lines, expanding the number of SKUs that we offer with and without pre-shipment calibration and offering equipment rental and used equipment options. Management believes this diversification strategy will mitigate the impact that any particular industry or sector will have on the overall performance of this segment as well as help to further differentiate us from our competitors going forward.

Financial Overview. In evaluating our results for fiscal year 2025, investors should consider that we operate on a 52/53-week fiscal year, ending the last Saturday in March. In a 52-week fiscal year, each of the four quarters is a 13-week period. In a 53-week fiscal year, the last quarter is a 14-week period. Fiscal year 2025 consisted of 52 weeks and fiscal year 2024 consisted of 53 weeks.

A discussion regarding our financial condition and results of operations for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024 and year-to-year comparisons between fiscal year 2024 and fiscal year ended March 25, 2023 ("fiscal year 2023"), which are not included in this Form 10-K, can be found under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part II, Item 7 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024 and are incorporated by reference herein.

Total revenue for fiscal year 2025 was $278.4 million. This represented an increase of $18.9 million or 7.3% versus total revenue of $259.5 million for fiscal year 2024. This increase was primarily due to recently completed acquisitions, and increased rental sales, which includes incremental revenue from an acquisition completed in fiscal year 2025.

Service revenue was $181.4 million in fiscal year 2025, an increase of $11.9 million or 7.0%. Service revenue accounted for 65.2% of our total revenue during fiscal year 2025. Of our Service revenue in fiscal year 2025, 86.0% was generated by our Calibration Service Centers and cost control and optimization services while 12.8% was generated through subcontracted third-party vendors, compared with 86.6% and 12.3%, respectively, in fiscal year 2024. The remainder of our Service revenue in each period was derived from freight charges.

Table of Contents

Distribution sales were $97.0 million in fiscal year 2025, an increase of $7.0 million or 7.8%. Distribution sales accounted for 34.8% of our total revenue in fiscal year 2025.

Sales to domestic customers comprised 93.3% of total Distribution sales in fiscal year 2025, while 5.7% were to Canadian customers and 1.0% were to customers in other international markets.

Total gross profit was $89.5 million in fiscal year 2025 compared to $83.8 million in fiscal year 2024, an increase of $5.6 million or 6.7%. Total gross margin was 32.1%, which is a 20 basis point decrease versus fiscal year 2024. Service gross margin was 33.4% in fiscal year 2025 compared with 33.8% in fiscal year 2024, a 40 basis point decrease. Distribution gross margin was 29.7% in fiscal year 2025 compared with 29.5% in fiscal year 2024, a 20 basis point increase. This decrease in service gross margin in fiscal year 2025 was primarily largely the result of lower revenue and gross margins for Transcat Solutions. The increase in the distribution segment gross margin was primarily due to increased margins from rental revenue, which now includes Becnel.

Operating expenses were $71.6 million, or 25.7% of total revenue, in fiscal year 2025 compared with $64.0 million, or 24.7% of total revenue, in fiscal year 2024. Operating income was $17.9 million, or 6.4% of total revenue, in fiscal year 2025 compared with $19.8 million, or 7.6% of total revenue, in fiscal year 2024. The year-over-year increase in selling, marketing and warehouse expenses was due to increased expenses related to recent acquisitions, especially acquisition related amortization expense, and higher incentive-based employee costs due to higher sales. The year-over-year increase in general and administrative expenses was due to incremental expenses from acquired businesses (including stock expense), increased payroll costs for new employees and continued investments in technology.

Net income for fiscal year 2025 was $14.5 million compared with $13.6 million in fiscal year 2024, a $0.9 million increase. Diluted earnings per share for fiscal year 2025 was $1.57 compared with $1.63 for fiscal year 2024, a $0.06 per diluted share decrease.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Use of Estimates. The preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires that we make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions are used for, but not limited to, allowance for credit losses and returns, inventory reserves, estimated levels of achievement for performance-based restricted stock units, fair value of stock options, depreciable lives of fixed assets, estimated lives of major catalogs and intangible assets, fair value of the goodwill reporting units, and the valuation of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration transferred in business acquisitions. Future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty; accordingly, our accounting estimates require the exercise of judgment. The accounting estimates used in the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements will change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained, and as our operating environment changes. Our estimates are evaluated on an ongoing basis and are drawn from historical experience and other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Such changes and refinements in estimation methodologies are reflected in reported results of operations in the period in which the changes are made and, if material, their effects are disclosed in the Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

The following items in our Consolidated Financial Statements require significant estimation or judgment:

Accounts Receivable. Accounts receivable represents amounts due from customers in the ordinary course of business. These amounts are recorded net of the allowance for credit losses and returns in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The allowance for credit losses is based upon the expected collectability of accounts receivable. We apply a specific formula to our accounts receivable aging, which may be adjusted on a specific account basis where the formula may not appropriately reserve for loss exposure. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written-off against the allowance for credit losses. A returns reserve is calculated based upon the historical rate of returns applied to revenues over a specific timeframe. The returns reserve will increase or decrease as a result of changes in the level of revenues and/or the historical rate of returns. Management believes that the allowances are appropriate to cover anticipated losses under current conditions. However, unexpected changes or deterioration in economic conditions could materially change these expectations.

29

Table of Contents

Inventory. Inventory consists of products purchased for resale and is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Costs are determined using the average cost method of inventory valuation. Inventory is reduced by a reserve for items not saleable at or above cost by applying a specific loss factor, based on historical experience and current demand, to specific categories of our inventory. Inventory is at risk of obsolescence if economic conditions change. Relevant economic conditions include changing consumer demand, customer preferences or increasing competition. We believe these risks are largely mitigated because our inventory typically turns several times per year. We evaluate the adequacy of the reserve on a quarterly basis.

Business Acquisitions. We apply the acquisition method of accounting for business acquisitions. Under the acquisition method, identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration transferred are measured at their acquisition-date fair value. We use a valuation hierarchy to determine the fair values used. Historically, we have relied, in part, upon the use of reports from third-party valuation specialists to assist in the estimation of fair values. Purchase price allocations are subject to revision within the measurement period, not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition. The fair value of contingent consideration is determined at each reporting period with changes reflected in the statement of operations. Administration costs to acquire a business may include, but are not limited to, fees for accounting, legal and valuation services and are recorded as incurred in our Consolidated Statement of Income.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the values assigned to the underlying net assets of an acquired business and is not amortized. As of March 29, 2025, we had $176.9 million of recorded goodwill.

Intangible assets, namely customer base and covenants not to compete, represent an allocation of purchase price to identifiable intangible assets of an acquired business. These intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives and are reviewed for impairment if and when indicators are present.

We test goodwill for impairment for each reporting unit on an annual basis during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year or immediately if conditions indicate that such impairment could exist. We estimate the fair value of our reporting units using the fair market value measurement requirement. We have the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit has declined below its carrying value. This assessment considers various financial, macroeconomic, industry and segment specific qualitative factors. Based on the results of our qualitative impairment testing, we have determined that it was more likely than not that the fair values exceeded the carrying values of goodwill for each reporting unit and there were no impairments as of each of March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024.

Intangible assets are evaluated for impairment when events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. In the event a trigger is identified, the carrying value of the asset group is compared to the undiscounted cash flows from that asset group. There were no intangible asset impairment indicators identified during the years ended March 29, 2025 or March 30, 2024.

Income Taxes. We record deferred income taxes for the effects of timing differences between financial and tax reporting. These differences relate primarily to operating leases, goodwill and intangible assets, depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation. We base our deferred income taxes, accrued income taxes and provision for income taxes upon income, statutory tax rates, the legal structure of our Company, interpretation of tax laws and tax planning opportunities available to us in the various jurisdictions in which we operate. We file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various states, Canada and Ireland. We have been audited by federal, state and foreign tax authorities, but a number of years may elapse before an uncertain tax position, for which we have unrecognized tax benefits, is audited and finally resolved. From time to time, these audits result in assessments of additional tax. If a loss is determined to be probable as a result of an audit, an accrual is established.

We apply a more-likely-than-not threshold to the recognition and derecognition of uncertain tax positions. Accordingly, we recognize the amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being ultimately realized upon settlement. Future changes in judgments and estimates related to the expected ultimate resolution of uncertain tax positions will affect income in the quarter of such change. While it is often difficult to predict the final outcome or the timing of resolution of any particular uncertain tax position, we believe that our unrecognized tax benefits reflect the most likely outcome.

Stock-Based Compensation. We measure the cost of services received in exchange for all equity awards granted, including stock options and restricted stock units, based on the fair market value of the award as of the grant date. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock options granted. The application of this pricing model involves assumptions that require judgment and are sensitive in the determination of compensation expense. The fair market value of our common stock on the date of each option grant is determined based on the most recent closing price on our primary trading stock exchange, currently the Nasdaq Global Market.

We record compensation cost related to unvested equity awards by recognizing, on a straight-line basis, the unamortized grant date fair value over the remaining service period for awards expected to vest. In accordance with Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) 2016-09, excess tax benefits for share-based award activity are reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Income as a component of the provision for income taxes. Excess tax benefits are realized benefits from tax deductions for exercised awards in excess of the deferred tax asset attributable to stock-based compensation costs for such awards. We did not capitalize any stock-based compensation costs as part of an asset. We estimate forfeiture rates based on our historical experience.

We grant timed-based and performance-based restricted stock units as a component of executive and key employee compensation. These restricted stock units are either time vested or vest following the third fiscal year from the date of grant subject to cumulative diluted earnings per share growth targets over the eligible period. Compensation cost ultimately recognized for these restricted stock units will equal the grant-date fair market value of the unit that coincides with the actual outcome of the performance conditions. On an interim basis, we record compensation cost based on the expected level of achievement of the performance conditions. The expense relating to the time vested restricted stock units is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award.

Stock options vest either immediately or over a period of up to five years using a straight-line basis and expire either five years or ten years from the date of grant. The expense relating to options is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award.

See Note 6 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for further disclosure regarding our stock-based compensation.

Post-retirement Health Care Plans. The Company has a defined benefit post-retirement health care plan which provides long-term care insurance benefits, medical and dental insurance benefits, and medical premium reimbursement benefits to eligible retired corporate officers and their eligible spouses.

For accounting purposes, the defined benefit post-retirement health care plan requires assumptions to estimate the projected and accumulated benefit obligations, including the following variables: discount rate; certain employee-related factors, such as retirement age and mortality; and health care cost trend rates. These and other assumptions affect the annual expense and obligations recognized for the underlying plans. Our assumptions reflect our historical experiences and management's best judgment regarding future expectations.

Increasing the assumed health care cost trend rate by one percentage point would increase the accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation and the annual net periodic post-retirement benefit cost by $0.1 million. A one percentage point decrease in the healthcare cost trend would decrease the accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation and the annual net periodic post-retirement benefit cost by $0.1 million.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. In the normal course of business, management evaluates all new accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) to determine the potential impact they may have on our consolidated financial statements. For a discussion of the newly issued accounting pronouncements see “Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements” and "Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted" under Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of Part II of this report.

Total |  | $ | 278,421 |  |  | $ | 259,481 |  |  | $ | 18,940 |  |  |  | 7.3 | %

Total revenue was $278.4 million in fiscal year 2025 compared to $259.5 million in fiscal year 2024, an increase of $18.9 million or 7.3%. When normalizing for the fewer days from fiscal year 2025's 52 weeks versus fiscal year 2024’s 53 weeks, the Company estimates that its full year revenue growth was approximately 9.1%.

Service revenue, which accounted for 65.2% and 65.3% of our total revenue in fiscal years 2025 and 2024, respectively, increased $11.9 million, or 7.0% from fiscal year 2024 to fiscal year 2025. This year-over-year increase included $10.4 million of incremental revenue from the acquisitions of Becnel and Martin. It also included organic revenue growth of 2.7% when adjusted for the 52/53 week impact, which was driven by continued market share gains, offset by comparatively lower revenue from the Transcat Solutions business.

Our fiscal years 2025 and 2024 Service revenue growth in relation to prior fiscal year quarter comparisons, was as follows:

The growth in fiscal year 2025 and fiscal year 2024 reflected both organic growth and acquisitions. The growth in Service segment revenue in fiscal year 2025 includes revenue from Becnel and Martin. The growth in Service segment revenue in fiscal year 2024 includes revenue from TIC-MS and SteriQual. The lower growth percentages in fiscal year 2025 are due to lower organic revenue growth compared to fiscal year 2024.

Within any year, while we add new customers, we also have customers from the prior year whose service orders may not repeat for any number of factors. Among those factors are variations in the timing of periodic calibrations and other services, customer capital expenditures and customer outsourcing decisions. Because the timing of Service segment orders can vary on a quarter-to-quarter basis, we believe a trailing twelve-month trend provides a better indication of the progress of this segment.

The following table presents the trailing twelve-month Service segment revenue for each quarter in fiscal years 2025 and 2024 as well as the trailing twelve-month revenue growth as a comparison to that of the prior fiscal year period:

Our strategy has been to focus our investments in the core electrical, temperature, pressure, physical/dimensional and radio frequency/microwave calibration disciplines. We expect to subcontract approximately 13% to 15% of our Service revenue to third-party vendors for calibration beyond our chosen scope of capabilities. We continually evaluate our outsourcing needs and make capital investments, as deemed necessary, to add more in-house capabilities and reduce the need for third-party vendors. Capability expansion through business acquisitions is another way that we seek to reduce the need for outsourcing. The following table presents the source of our Service revenue and the percentage of Service revenue derived from each source for each quarter during fiscal years 2025 and 2024:

|  | FY 2025 |  |  | FY 2024 |

Our Distribution sales accounted for 34.8% and 34.7% of our total revenue in fiscal years 2025 and 2024, respectively. Distribution sales increased $7.0 million, or 7.8% in fiscal year 2025 compared to fiscal year 2024. This year-over-year increase is primarily due to $7.2 million of incremental revenue from the acquisitions of Becnel and Martin offset by slower demand for our non-rental products. The change in fiscal year 2024 versus fiscal year 2023 was due to incremental revenue from the acquisition of Axiom offset by slower demand for our non-rental products. Our fiscal years 2025 and 2024 Distribution sales growth in relation to prior fiscal year quarter comparisons were as follows:

|  | FY 2025 |  |  | FY 2024 |
|  | Q4 |  |  | Q3 |  |  | Q2 |  |  | Q1 |  |  | Q4 |  |  | Q3 |  |  | Q2 |  |  | Q1 |
Distribution Sales Growth |  |  | 3.9% |  |  |  | 6.5% |  |  |  | 11.1% |  |  |  | 10.5% |  |  |  | 8.4% |  |  |  | 10.4% |  |  |  | 0.9% |  |  |  | (0.2)% |

Distribution sales orders include orders for instruments that we routinely stock in our inventory, customized products, and other products ordered less frequently, which we do not stock. Backorders are the total dollar value of orders received for which revenue has not yet been recognized. Pending product shipments are primarily backorders, but also include the total dollar value of products that are requested to be calibrated in our service centers prior to shipment, orders required by the customer to be shipped complete or at a future date, and other orders awaiting final credit or management review prior to shipment. Management uses pending product shipments and backorders as measures of our future business performance and financial performance within the Distribution segment.

Our total pending product shipments decreased $1.8 million, or 34.7%, at the end of fiscal year 2025 compared to the end of fiscal year 2024. Backorders at the end of fiscal year 2025 were $2.7 million, compared to $4.5 million at the end of fiscal year 2024. The year-over-year decrease in pending product shipments and backorders was a result of improved fulfillment of existing orders.

The following table presents the percentage of total pending product shipments that were backorders at the end of each quarter in fiscal years 2025 and 2024 and our historical trend of total pending product shipments:

Total |  | $ | 89,453 |  |  | $ | 83,806 |  |  | $ | 5,647 |  |  |  | 6.7 | %

Total gross profit in fiscal year 2025 was $89.5 million compared to $83.8 million in fiscal year 2024, an increase of $5.6 million or 6.7%. As a percentage of total revenue, total gross margin was 32.1% in fiscal year 2025 compared to 32.3% in fiscal year 2024, a 20 basis point decrease.

Service gross profit was $60.7 million, an increase of $3.4 million, or 5.9%, from fiscal year 2024 to fiscal year 2025. Our annual and quarterly Service segment gross margins are a function of several factors. Our organic Service revenue growth provides some incremental gross margin growth by leveraging certain fixed costs of this segment. The mix of services provided to customers may also affect gross margins in any given period. Service gross margin decreased by 40 basis points in fiscal year 2025 versus fiscal year 2024. This decrease in service gross margin in fiscal year 2025 was the result of lower revenue and gross margins from Transcat Solutions.

The following table presents the quarterly historical trend of our Service gross margin as a percent of Service revenue:

|  | FY 2025 |  |  | FY 2024 |
|  | Q4 |  |  | Q3 |  |  | Q2 |  |  | Q1 |  |  | Q4 |  |  | Q3 |  |  | Q2 |  |  | Q1 |
Service Gross Margin |  | 36.2% |  |  | 29.7% |  |  | 33.1% |  |  | 34.0% |  |  | 35.7% |  |  | 32.5% |  |  | 34.0% |  |  | 32.5% |

Our Distribution gross margin includes net sales less the direct cost of inventory sold and the direct costs of equipment rental revenues, primarily depreciation expense for the fixed assets in our rental equipment pool, as well as the impact of rebates and cooperative advertising income we receive from vendors, freight billed to customers, freight expenses and direct shipping costs. We recorded vendor rebates of $0.9 million in fiscal year 2025 and $0.6 million in fiscal year 2024, as a reduction of cost of Distribution sales. In general, our Distribution gross margin can vary based upon the mix of products sold, price discounting, the timing of periodic vendor rebates offered and cooperative advertising programs from suppliers.

The following table reflects the quarterly historical trend of our Distribution gross margin as a percent of Distribution sales:

|  | FY 2025 |  |  | FY 2024 |
|  | Q4 |  |  | Q3 |  |  | Q2 |  |  | Q1 |  |  | Q4 |  |  | Q3 |  |  | Q2 |  |  | Q1 |

Distribution segment gross margin increased 20 basis points in fiscal year 2025 compared to fiscal year 2024. The increase in the Distribution segment gross margin was primarily due to increased margins from rental revenue, which now includes Becnel and a favorable mix of higher margin products sold.

Total |  | $ | 71,579 |  |  | $ | 64,025 |  |  | $ | 7,554 |  |  |  | 11.8 | %

Total operating expenses were $71.6 million in fiscal year 2025 compared to $64.0 million in fiscal year 2024. This represented an increase of $7.6 million, or 11.8%, compared to fiscal year 2024. As a percentage of total revenue, operating expenses increased 100 basis points from 24.7% in fiscal year 2024 to 25.7% in fiscal year 2025. The year-over-year increase in selling, marketing and warehouse expenses is due to increased expenses related to recent acquisitions, especially acquisition related amortization expense, and higher incentive-based employee costs due to higher sales. The increase in general and administrative expenses includes incremental expenses related to acquired companies, increased payroll costs for new employees and continued investments in technology.

Provision for Income Taxes:

|  | Fiscal Year Ended |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
|  | March 29, |  |  | March 30, |  |  | Change |
|  | 2025 |  |  | 2024 |  |  | $ |  |  | % |
Provision for Income Taxes |  | $ | 3,811 |  |  | $ | 4,792 |  |  | $ | (981 | ) |  |  | (20.5 | )%

Our effective tax rate for fiscal years 2025 and 2024 was 20.8% and 26.0%, respectively. The decrease in effective tax rate is due to the timing of our discrete items in relation to the timing of our pre-tax net income and due to tax expense recognized in fiscal year 2024 associated with executive compensation limitations that resulted from share-based awards. Our provision for income taxes is affected by discrete items that may occur in any given period but are not consistent from year to year. The discrete benefits related to share-based compensation activity in fiscal years 2025 and 2024 were $1.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively. We continue to evaluate our tax provision on a quarterly basis and adjust, as deemed necessary, our effective tax rate given changes in facts and circumstances expected in the future.

We expect to receive certain federal, state, Canadian and Irish tax credits in future years. We also expect to receive discrete tax benefits related to share-based compensation awards in fiscal year 2026. As such, we expect our effective tax rate in fiscal year 2026 to be between 27.0% and 29.0%.

Net Income |  | $ | 14,515 |  |  | $ | 13,647 |  |  | $ | 868 |  |  |  | 6.4 | %

Net income for fiscal year 2025 increased by $0.9 million or 6.4% compared to fiscal year 2024. As a percentage of revenue, net income was 5.2% in fiscal year 2025, down from 5.3% in fiscal year 2024. The year-over-year increase in net income was primarily due to lower operating income, offset by lower interest expense, net and higher other income related to the sale of assets related to our United Scale division.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA:

In addition to reporting net income, a GAAP measure, we present Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock compensation expense, acquisition related transaction expenses, contingent consideration, and certain other expenses), which is a non-GAAP measure. Our management believes Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of our operating performance because it allows management, investors and others to evaluate and compare the performance of our core operations from period to period by removing the impact of the capital structure (interest), tangible and intangible asset base (depreciation and amortization), taxes, stock-based compensation expense and other items, which is not always commensurate with the reporting period in which it is included. As such, our management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of performance when evaluating our business segments and as a basis for planning and forecasting. Adjusted EBITDA is also commonly used by rating agencies, lenders and other parties to evaluate our credit worthiness.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and is not calculated through the application of GAAP. As such, it should not be considered as a substitute or alternative for the GAAP measure of net income and, therefore, should not be used in isolation of, but in conjunction with, the GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may produce results that vary from the GAAP measure and may not be comparable to a similarly defined non-GAAP measure used by other companies.

|  | Fiscal Year Ended |

+ Noncash Stock Compensation |  |  | 3,248 |  |  |  | 4,512 |
Adjusted EBITDA |  | $ | 39,732 |  |  | $ | 38,613 |

During fiscal year 2025, Adjusted EBITDA was $39.7 million, an increase of $1.1 million or 2.9% compared to fiscal year 2024. As a percentage of revenue, Adjusted EBITDA was 14.3% during fiscal year 2025 versus 14.9% during fiscal year 2024, a 60 basis point decrease. The dollar increase in Adjusted EBITDA during fiscal year 2025 was primarily driven by increases in depreciation and amortization expense offset by lower operating income and lower noncash stock compensation.

Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share:

In addition to reporting Diluted Earnings Per Share, a GAAP measure, we present Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share (net income plus acquisition related amortization expense, acquisition related transaction expenses, acquisition related stock-based compensation, contingent consideration, and acquisition amortization of backlog; divided by the average diluted shares outstanding during the period), which is a non-GAAP measure. Our management believes Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share is an important measure of our operating performance because it provides a basis for comparison of our business operations between current, past and future periods by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance.

Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and is not calculated through the application of GAAP. As such, it should not be considered as a substitute or alternative for the GAAP measure of Diluted Earnings Per Share and, therefore, should not be used in isolation of, but in conjunction with, the GAAP measure. Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share, as presented, may produce results that vary from the GAAP measure and may not be comparable to a similarly defined non-GAAP measure used by other companies.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We expect that foreseeable liquidity and capital resource requirements will be met through cash and cash equivalents, anticipated cash flows from operations and borrowings from our revolving credit facility. We believe that these sources of financing will be adequate to meet our future requirements including anticipated operating expenses, capital expenditures, interest payments on our long-term debt, and planned business acquisitions. To the extent that the Company does not satisfy its liquidity requirements through cash and cash equivalents, anticipated cash flows from operations and borrowings from our revolving credit facility, it intends to satisfy such requirements through proceeds from the issuance of common stock.

Under our Second Amended and Restated Credit Facility Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company (“M&T”), we have access to a revolving credit commitment (the “revolving credit facility”) of $80.0 million through June 2026, with a letter of credit subfacility of $10.0 million. Our 2018 term loan, with an original principal amount of $15.0 million (the “2018 Term Loan”), is also provided for under the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement allows us to use up to $50.0 million under the revolving credit facility for acquisitions in any single fiscal year. The Credit Agreement restricts our ability to complete acquisitions of businesses with a principal place of business located in the United Kingdom or the European Union to an aggregate purchase price of $40.0 million during the term of the Credit Agreement, if the acquisition is financed directly or indirectly with the revolving credit facility. Under the Credit Agreement, we may make restricted payments up to $25.0 million in the aggregate over the term of the Credit Agreement and $10.0 million in any single fiscal year to repurchase shares and pay dividends.

Effective July 1, 2023, interest on outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility accrue, at our election, at either the variable Daily Simple SOFR or a fixed rate for a designated period at the SOFR corresponding to such period (subject to a 0.25% floor), in each case, plus a margin. Unused fees accrue based on the average daily amount of unused credit available on the revolving credit facility. Interest rate margins and unused fees are determined on a quarterly basis based upon our calculated leverage ratio. Our interest rate for the revolving credit facility for fiscal year 2025 ranged from 5.1% to 6.2%. Interest on outstanding borrowings under the 2018 Term Loan accrue at a fixed rate of 3.90% over the term of the loan.

The Credit Agreement has certain covenants with which we must comply, including a fixed charge ratio covenant, which prohibits our fixed charge coverage ratio from being less than 1.15 to 1.00, and a leverage ratio covenant, which prohibits our leverage ratio from exceeding 3.00 to 1.00. Our leverage ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement, was 0.78 at March 29, 2025, compared with 0.10 at March 30, 2024. We were in compliance with all loan covenants and requirements during fiscal years 2025 and 2024.

As of March 29, 2025, $80.0 million was available for borrowing under the revolving credit facility, of which, $30.9 million was outstanding. On September 25, 2023, we closed an underwritten public offering of our common stock for aggregate gross proceeds of $80.5 million (the “Offering”). In the Offering, we sold an aggregate of 847,371 shares at $95.00 per share for net proceeds of $75.2 million. After the closing of the Offering, we used approximately $50.0 million of the net proceeds to repay in full the amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility. During fiscal year 2025 and 2024 we used $87.4 million and $12.9 million, respectively, drawn from cash on hand and from the revolving credit facility for business acquisitions.

As of March 29, 2025, $1.8 million was outstanding on the 2018 Term Loan, which was included in current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets with the remainder included in long-term debt. The 2018 Term Loan requires total repayments (principal plus interest) of $0.2 million per month through December 2025.

Operating Activities: Net cash provided by operating activities was $39.0 million during fiscal year 2025 compared to $32.6 million during fiscal year 2024. The year-over-year increase in cash provided by operations is primarily the result of increases in depreciation and amortization. The significant working capital fluctuations were as follows:

| ● | Receivables: Accounts receivable increased by a net amount of $8.2 million during fiscal year 2025, inclusive of $7.7 million of accounts receivable acquired as part of two acquisitions completed during the year. Accounts receivable increased by a net amount of $3.1 million during fiscal year 2024, inclusive of $2.1 million of accounts receivable acquired as part of three acquisitions completed during the period. The year-over-year change reflects the timing of collections. The following table illustrates our days sales outstanding as of March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024:

|  | As of |
|  | March 29, |  |  | March 30, |
|  | 2025 |  |  | 2024 |
Net Sales, for the last two fiscal months |  | $ | 57,565 |  |  | $ | 54,871 |
Accounts Receivable, net |  | $ | 55,941 |  |  | $ | 47,779 |
Days Sales Outstanding |  |  | 59 |  |  |  | 52 |

| ● | Inventory: Our inventory strategy includes making appropriate large quantity, high dollar purchases with key manufacturers for various reasons, including maximizing on-hand availability of key products, expanding the number of SKUs stocked in anticipation of customer demand, reducing backorders for products with long lead times and optimizing vendor purchase and sales volume discounts. As a result, inventory levels may vary from quarter-to-quarter based on the timing of these large orders in relation to our quarter end.

Our inventory balance decreased $2.9 million during fiscal year 2025. Our inventory balance during fiscal year 2024 increased $0.5 million inclusive of $1.8 million of inventory acquired during the year. The year-over-year change is a result of strategic inventory purchases during fiscal year 2024.

| ● | Accounts Payable: Changes in accounts payable may or may not correlate with changes in inventory balances at any given quarter end due to the timing of vendor payments for inventory, as well as the timing of payments for outsourced Service vendors and capital expenditures.

Accounts payable increased $5.3 million during fiscal year 2025, inclusive of $0.3 million of accounts payable acquired during the year. Accounts payable decreased by $4.4 million during fiscal year 2024, inclusive of $0.6 million of accounts payable acquired during the year. The variance is largely due to the timing of inventory and capital expenditure purchases and other payments in the respective periods.

| ● | Accrued Compensation and Other Current Liabilities: Accrued compensation and other current liabilities include, among other things, amounts paid to employees for non-equity performance-based compensation. At the end of any particular period, the amounts accrued for such compensation may vary due to many factors including, but not limited to, changes in expected performance levels, the performance measurement period, and the timing of payments to employees.

During fiscal year 2025, accrued compensation and other liabilities decreased by $1.3 million, inclusive of $1.2 million from assumed liabilities, contingent consideration and purchase price holdbacks from acquisition transactions. During fiscal year 2024, accrued compensation and other liabilities increased by $6.5 million, inclusive of $3.1 million from assumed liabilities, contingent consideration and purchase price holdbacks from acquisition transactions.

| ● | Income Taxes Payable: In any given period, net working capital may be affected by the timing and amount of income tax payments. During fiscal year 2025, income taxes payable decreased $2.9 million. During fiscal year 2024, income taxes payable increased by $2.9 million. The year-over-year difference is due to timing of income tax payments.

Investing Activities: During fiscal year 2025, we invested $13.2 million in capital expenditures that was used primarily for customer-driven expansion of Service segment capabilities and capacity and our rental business.

During fiscal year 2024, we invested $13.3 million in capital expenditures that was used primarily for customer-driven expansion of Service segment capabilities and our rental business.

During fiscal year 2025, we used $87.4 million for business acquisitions. During fiscal year 2024, we used $12.9 million for business acquisitions.

During each of fiscal year 2025 and fiscal year 2024, no contingent consideration was paid related to a business acquisition. $0.4 million and $0.8 million of holdback amounts were paid during fiscal year 2025 and fiscal year 2024, respectively.

During fiscal year 2025, we sold $15.5 million of marketable securities to partially fund acquisitions. During fiscal year 2024, we purchased $15.5 million of marketable securities with the proceeds from the Offering.

Financing Activities: During fiscal year 2025, $30.9 million in cash was generated from the proceeds from our revolving credit facility and $1.9 million from the issuance of common stock from stock option exercises and the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. In addition, we used $2.3 million for scheduled repayments of our term loan and $3.6 million for the “net” awarding of certain share awards to cover employee tax-withholding obligations for share award and stock option activity in fiscal year 2025, which is shown as a repurchase of shares of our common stock on our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

During fiscal year 2024, $77.2 million in cash was generated from the issuance of common stock, net of direct costs, inclusive of $75.2 million from the Offering. In addition, we used $42.7 million to repay our revolving credit facility, $2.2 million for scheduled repayments of our term loan and $4.9 million for the “net” awarding of certain share awards to cover employee tax-withholding obligations for share award and stock option activity in fiscal year 2024, which is shown as a repurchase of shares of our common stock on our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

OUTLOOK

Acquisitions continued to play a key role in Service revenue, including most recently Martin Calibration which we are swiftly integrating into our operations. Service organic growth was in the high single-digit range for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025 and the full fiscal year, when normalized for the 53rd week and excluding Transcat Solutions, driven by consistent demand in the Calibration business. Revenue growth in both segments combined with continued productivity gains from increased automation and process improvements drove EBITDA growth for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025 and the full fiscal year.

The macroeconomic backdrop, including tariffs, has become more uncertain since the beginning of the year. However, we believe our business model is resilient in any market environment due to the highly regulated markets we serve, particularly life science, aerospace, and defense, as our services are mandated. The stringent regulatory standards for manufacturers imposed by entities including the FDA, FAA and Department of Defense to ensure product safety and environmental protection drive the organic growth for our high-value calibration services. Our dedicated team has a proven track record of delivering profitable revenue growth over the past decade and a half. We believe our proven team in combination with the industry mandated service model, diversified portfolio with a Fortune 500 client base, and strong balance sheet will continue to differentiate us during fiscal year 2026 and beyond.

Looking ahead, while macroeconomic impacts on our business such as changes in product costs and customer demand for services are uncertain, we anticipate a return to high single-digit organic Service revenue growth once the environment normalizes. Automation of our calibration processes and focus on productivity remain key enablers of margin expansion. We have demonstrated the ability to leverage these tools to improve our operational efficiency and drive margin expansion over an extended period. We will continue to leverage our acquisition expertise and are pleased with the current flow of strategic opportunities. We believe strong execution, paired with strategic acquisitions, positions us well to drive long-term shareholder value.

Transcat expects its income tax rate to range between 27.0% and 29.0% in fiscal 2026. This estimate includes Federal, various state, Canadian and Irish income taxes and reflects the discrete tax accounting associated with share-based payment awards.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our exposure to changes in interest rates results from our borrowing activities. In the event interest rates were to move by 1%, our yearly interest expense would increase or decrease by approximately $0.3 million assuming our borrowing levels at March 29, 2025 remained constant. As of March 29, 2025, $80.0 million was available under the revolving credit facility, of which, $30.9 million was outstanding. As described above under “Liquidity and Capital Resources,” we also have a $15.0 million (original principal) term loan. The 2018 Term Loan is considered a fixed interest rate loan. As of March 29, 2025, $1.8 million was outstanding on the 2018 Term Loan and was included in current portion of long-term debt on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The 2018 Term Loan requires total (principal and interest) repayments of $0.2 million per month through December 2025.

Effective July 1, 2023, at our option, we borrow from our revolving credit facility at either the variable one-month Daily Simple SOFR or a fixed rate for a designated period at the SOFR corresponding to such period (subject to a 0.25% floor), in each case, plus a margin. Our interest rate margin is determined on a quarterly basis based upon our calculated leverage ratio. Our interest rate during fiscal year 2025 for our revolving credit facility ranged from 5.1% to 6.2 %. Interest on outstanding borrowings on the 2018 Term Loan accrued at a fixed rate of 3.90% over the term of the loan.

On March 29, 2025, we had no hedging arrangements in place for our revolving credit facility to limit our exposure to upward movements in interest rates.

FOREIGN CURRENCY

Approximately 90% of our total revenues for each of fiscal years 2025 and 2024 were denominated in U.S. dollars, with the remainder denominated in Canadian dollars and Euros. A 10% change in the value of the Canadian dollar to the U.S. dollar and the Euro to the U.S. dollar would impact our revenue by approximately 1%. We monitor the relationship between the U.S. dollar and Canadian dollar and the U.S. dollar and Euro on a monthly basis and adjust sales prices for products and services sold in Canadian dollars or Euros as we believe to be appropriate.

We continually utilize short-term foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce the risk that future earnings denominated in Canadian dollars would be adversely affected by changes in currency exchange rates. We do not apply hedge accounting and therefore the net change in the fair value of the contracts, which totaled a gain of $0.2 million and a loss of less than $0.1 million during fiscal year 2025 and 2024, respectively, was recognized as a component of other expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The change in the fair value of the contracts is offset by the change in fair value on the underlying accounts receivables denominated in Canadian dollars being hedged. On March 29, 2025, we had a foreign exchange contract, which matured in April 2025, outstanding in the notional amount of $1.1 million. The foreign exchange contract was renewed in April 2025 and continues to be in place. We do not use hedging arrangements for speculative purposes.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. In designing and evaluating our internal control system, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and that the effectiveness of any system has inherent limitations including, but not limited to, the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of controls and procedures. Management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, is required to apply judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected in a timely manner.

Effective December 10, 2024, the Company acquired Martin Calibration Inc. and effective April 15, 2024, the Company acquired Becnel Rental Tools, LLC. The financial results of these acquisitions are included in the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended March 29, 2025 and represent approximately 6% of total revenues and 6% of total assets excluding intangible assets and goodwill related to the acquisitions, respectively. Management is currently integrating Martin and Becnel into our operations and internal control processes and, pursuant to the SEC’s guidance that an assessment of a recently acquired business may be omitted from the scope of an assessment in the year of acquisition, the Company is excluding the internal control over financial reporting of Martin and Becnel from its evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 29, 2025.

An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our procedures and internal control over financial reporting using the framework and criteria described in the Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective in providing reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as of March 29, 2025.

Freed Maxick, P.C., our independent registered public accounting firm, has audited and reported on the consolidated financial statements of the Company and the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, as stated in their report included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Transcat, Inc.

Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Transcat, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in shareholders' equity for each of the three years in the period ended March 29, 2025, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements (collectively, the financial statements). We also have audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of March 29, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 29, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 29, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013.

As described in Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, management has excluded Becnel Rental Tools, LLC (Becnel) and Martin Calibration, Inc. (Martin) from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of March 29, 2025, because they were acquired by the Company in a purchase business combination during fiscal year 2025 . We have also excluded Becnel and Martin from our audit of internal control over financial reporting. Becnel and Martin are wholly owned subsidiaries. Becnel and Martin’s total assets, excluding intangible assets and goodwill related to the acquisitions, and total revenues represent approximately 6% and 6%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended March 29, 2025.

Basis for Opinions

The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements and an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

44

Table of Contents

Our audits of the financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of a critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Business Combinations

As discussed in Notes 1 and 9 to the consolidated financial statements, during the year ended March 29, 2025, the Company completed multiple business combinations for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $131.6 million. The Company applied the acquisition method of accounting for the acquisitions. Under this method, identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration transferred are measured at their acquisition-date fair value. Assumptions used include the weighted-average cost of capital, risk free rate, customer attrition, as well as forecasted revenue and earnings before income tax, interest, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”). Aggregate intangible assets and goodwill represented an allocation of purchase price in the amount of $43.2 and $71.7 million, respectively.

45

Table of Contents

The Company’s determination of the fair value of assets acquired is based upon assumptions of the future performance of the acquisitions and other factors. Due to the subjectivity involved we identified the fair value estimate of assets acquired as a critical audit matter, which required a higher degree of auditor judgement as well as the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.

Our audit procedures related to the estimation of fair value of assets acquired associated with the business combinations included the following, among others:

| ● | We obtained an understanding of the process and assumptions used by management to develop the estimate.

| ● | We updated our understanding of the associated controls and tested controls.

| ● | We engaged an internal valuation specialist to test certain assumptions and approaches used.

| ● | We tested identification of appropriate reporting units, including assignment of assets acquired, liabilities assumed, consideration and goodwill to the reporting units.

| ● | We tested management’s valuation of intangible assets acquired, including valuation of any contingent consideration. This included testing the completeness and accuracy of source information used, mathematical accuracy of management’s calculations, and evaluating the reasonableness and consistency of methodology and assumptions used.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – GENERAL

Description of Business: Transcat, Inc. (“Transcat,” “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) is a leading provider of accredited calibration services, cost control and optimization services, and distribution and rental of value-added professional grade handheld test, measurement, and control instrumentation. The Company is focused on providing services and products to highly regulated industries, particularly the life science industry, which includes pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and other FDA-regulated businesses. Additional industries served include industrial manufacturing; energy and utilities, including oil and gas; chemical manufacturing; FAA-regulated businesses, including aerospace and defense and other industries that require accuracy in their processes, confirmation of the capabilities of their equipment, and for which the risk of failure is very costly.

Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements of Transcat include the accounts of Transcat and the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, Transcat Canada, Inc, Cal OpEx Limited (d/b/a Transcat Ireland), Cal OpEx Inc. (d/b/a NEXA EAM), Axiom Test Equipment, LLC, Becnel Rental Tools, LLC and Martin Calibration, Inc. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of Transcat’s Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires that the Company make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions are used for, but not limited to, allowance for credit losses and returns, inventory reserves, estimated levels of achievement for performance-based restricted stock units, fair value of stock options, depreciable lives of fixed assets, estimated lives of major catalogs and intangible assets, fair value of the goodwill reporting units, and the valuation of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration transferred in business acquisitions. Future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty; accordingly, accounting estimates require the exercise of judgment. The accounting estimates used in the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as the operating environment changes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Such changes and refinements in estimation methodologies are reflected in reported results of operations in the period in which the changes are made and, if material, their effects are disclosed in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Fiscal Year: Transcat operates on a 52/53-week fiscal year, ending the last Saturday in March. In a 52-week fiscal year, each of the four quarters is a 13-week period. In a 53-week fiscal year, the last quarter is a 14-week period. The fiscal year ended March 29, 2025 ("fiscal year 2025") consisted of 52 weeks and fiscal year 2024 which ended on March 30, 2024 consisted of 53 weeks.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with an original maturity when purchased of three months or less and are stated at cost, which approximates fair value.

Marketable Securities: Marketable securities consist of highly liquid investments with an original maturity when purchased of more than three months and are stated at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. These securities are considered trading securities. Earnings on the marketable securities are included in interest income in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Accounts Receivable: Accounts receivable represent amounts due from customers in the ordinary course of business. These amounts are recorded net of the allowance for credit losses and returns in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The allowance for credit losses is based upon the expected collectability of accounts receivable. The Company applies a specific formula to its accounts receivable aging, which may be adjusted on a specific account basis where the formula may not appropriately reserve for loss exposure. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written-off against the allowance for credit losses. The accounts receivable balance, less the allowance, as of March 25, 2023, was $44.7 million.

Inventory: Inventory consists of products purchased for resale and is valued at the lower of average cost or net realizable value. Costs are determined using the average cost method of inventory valuation. The Company performs physical inventory counts and cycle counts on inventory throughout the year and adjusts the recorded balance to reflect the results. Inventory is reduced by a reserve for items not saleable at or above cost by applying a specific loss factor, based on historical experience, to specific categories of inventory. The Company evaluates the adequacy of the reserve on a quarterly basis. The Company had reserves for inventory losses totaling $0.2 million at March 29, 2025 and $0.3 million at March 30, 2024.

Table of Contents

Property and Equipment, Depreciation and Amortization: Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed under the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

|  | Years |
Machinery, Equipment and Software |  | 2 – 15 |
Rental Equipment |  | 5 – 15 |
Furniture and Fixtures |  | 3 – 10 |
Leasehold Improvements |  | 2 – 12 |

Property and equipment determined to have no value are written off at their then remaining net book value. The Company capitalizes certain costs, including internal payroll costs incurred in the procurement and development of computer software used for internal purposes. Leasehold improvements are amortized under the straight-line method over the estimated useful life or the lease term, whichever is shorter. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. See Note 2 for further information on property and equipment.

Business Acquisitions: The Company applies the acquisition method of accounting for business acquisitions. Under the acquisition method, identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration transferred are measured at their acquisition-date fair value. The Company uses a valuation hierarchy, as further described under Fair Value of Financial Instruments below, to determine the fair values. Historically, we have relied, in part, upon the use of reports from third-party valuation specialists to assist in the estimation of fair values. Purchase price allocations are subject to revision within the measurement period, not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition. Costs to acquire a business may include, but are not limited to, fees for accounting, legal and valuation services, and are expensed as incurred in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets: Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair values of the underlying net assets of an acquired business. The Company tests goodwill for impairment for each reporting unit on an annual basis during the fourth quarter of its fiscal year, or immediately if conditions indicate that such impairment could exist. The Company is permitted, but not required, to qualitatively assess indicators of a reporting unit’s fair value to determine whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. If a quantitative test is deemed necessary, a discounted cash flow analysis is prepared to estimate fair value. The Company determined that no impairment was indicated as of March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024.

Table of Contents

Intangible assets, namely customer base and covenants not to compete, represent an allocation of purchase price to identifiable intangible assets of an acquired business. Intangible assets are evaluated for impairment when events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. A summary of changes in the Company’s goodwill and intangible assets is as follows (amounts in thousands):

The Company reviews response results from catalog mailings on a continuous basis, and if warranted, modifies the period over which costs are recognized. The Company amortizes the cost of each master catalog over an eighteen-month period and amortizes the cost of each catalog supplement over a three-month period. There were no unamortized catalog costs at March 29, 2025 or at March 30, 2024.

Deferred Taxes: The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of its assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in income tax rates is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company establishes valuation allowances if it believes that it is more-likely-than-not that some or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. See Note 4 for further discussion on income taxes.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments: Transcat has determined the fair value of debt and other financial instruments using a valuation hierarchy. The hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value, consists of three levels. Level 1 uses observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2 uses inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, which is defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, requires the Company to develop its own assumptions. The carrying amount of debt on the Consolidated Balance Sheets approximates fair value due to variable interest rate pricing on a portion of the debt with the balance bearing an interest rate approximating current market rates, and the carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. Investment assets, which fund the Company’s non-qualified deferred compensation plan, consist of mutual funds and are valued based on Level 1 inputs. At both March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024, investment assets totaled $0.1 million and are included as a component of other assets (non-current) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Stock-Based Compensation: The Company measures the cost of services received in exchange for all equity awards granted, including stock options and restricted stock units, based on the fair market value of the award as of the grant date. The Company records compensation cost related to unvested equity awards by recognizing, on a straight-line basis, the unamortized grant date fair value over the remaining service period for awards expected to vest. Excess tax benefits for share-based award activity are reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income as a component of the provision for income taxes. Excess tax benefits are realized benefits from tax deductions for exercised awards in excess of the deferred tax asset attributable to stock-based compensation costs for such awards. The Company did not capitalize any stock-based compensation costs as part of an asset. The Company estimates forfeiture rates based on its historical experience. During fiscal years 2025, 2024 and fiscal year ended March 25, 2023 ("fiscal year 2023"), the Company recorded non-cash stock-based compensation cost in the amount of $3.2 million, $4.5 million and $3.4 million, respectively, in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Revenue Recognition: Revenue is recognized in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and Topic 842, Leases. Distribution product sales are recorded when an order’s title and risk of loss transfers to the customer, which is generally upon shipment. The Company recognizes the majority of its Service revenue based upon when the calibration or other activity is performed and then shipped and/or delivered to the customer. The majority of the Company’s revenue generating activities have a single performance obligation and are recognized at the point in time when control transfers and/or our obligation has been fulfilled. Some Service revenue is generated from managing customers’ calibration programs in which the Company recognizes revenue over time using the time-elapsed output method as this portrays the transfer of control to the customer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for product shipped or services performed.

Rental revenue is accounted for as an operating lease. We recognize revenue from equipment rentals in the period earned, regardless of the timing of billing to customers. A rental contract includes rates for daily, weekly or monthly use, and rental revenues are earned on a daily basis as rental contracts remain outstanding. As some rental contracts can extend across multiple reporting periods, we record unbilled rental revenue and deferred rental revenue at the end of a reporting period so rental revenue earned is appropriately stated for the periods presented.

Sales taxes and other taxes billed and collected from customers are excluded from revenue. The Company generally invoices its customers for freight, shipping, and handling charges. Freight billed to customers is included in revenue. Shipping and handling is not included in revenue. Provisions for customer returns are provided for in the period the related revenue is recorded based upon historical data.

Under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, we use judgments that could potentially impact both the timing of our satisfaction of performance obligations and our determination of transaction prices used in determining revenue recognized. Such judgments include considerations in determining our transaction prices and when our performance obligations are satisfied for our standard product sales that include general payment terms that are between net 30 and 90 days.

Revenue recognized from prior period performance obligations for fiscal year 2025 was immaterial. As of March 29, 2025, the Company had no unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected duration of greater than one year. Pursuant to ASC Topic 606, the Company applied the practical expedient with respect to disclosure of the deferral and future expected timing of revenue recognition for transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations. Deferred revenue, unbilled revenue and deferred contract costs recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024 were immaterial. See Note 7 for disaggregated revenue information.

The following table presents a summary of the Company's net sales by revenue recognition method as a percentage of total net sales:

|  | % of Total Net Sales |
|  | 2025 |  |  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |
Point-in-Time |  |  | 86.8 | % |  |  | 89.7 | % |  |  | 91.0 | %
Over Time - Output Method |  |  | 13.2 | % |  |  | 10.3 | % |  |  | 9.0 | %
Total |  |  | 100.0 | % |  |  | 100.0 | % |  |  | 100.0 | %

Vendor Rebates: Vendor rebates are generally based on specified cumulative levels of purchases and/or incremental distribution sales and are recorded as a reduction of cost of distribution sales. Purchase rebates are calculated and recorded quarterly based upon the volume of purchases with specific vendors during the quarter. Point of sale rebate programs that are based on year-over-year sales performance on a calendar year basis are recorded as earned, on a quarterly basis, based upon the expected level of annual achievement. Point of sale rebate programs that are based on year-over-year sales performance on a quarterly basis are recorded as earned in the respective quarter. The Company recorded vendor rebates of $0.9 million, $0.6 million and $0.6 million in fiscal years 2025, 2024 , and 2023, respectively, as a reduction of cost of distribution sales.

Cooperative Advertising Income: The Company participates in co-op advertising programs with certain of its vendors. The Company records cash consideration received from these vendors for advertising as a reduction of cost of distribution sales. The Company recorded consideration in the amount of $0.9 million, $1.1 million and $1.0 million in fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, in connection with these programs.

Advertising Costs: Advertising costs, other than catalog costs, are expensed as they are incurred and are included in Selling, Marketing and Warehouse Expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Advertising costs were approximately $2.0 million, $1.6 million and $1.2 million in fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Shipping and Handling Costs: Freight expense and direct shipping costs are included in the cost of revenue. These costs totaled approximately $3.4 million, $3.2 million and $3.1 million in fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Direct handling costs, the majority of which represent direct compensation of employees who pick, pack, and prepare merchandise for shipment to customers, are reflected in selling, marketing and warehouse expenses. Direct handling costs were approximately $0.6 million, $0.5 million and $0.7 million in fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions: The accounts of Cal OpEx Limited (d/b/a Transcat Ireland), an Irish company, and Transcat Canada Inc., both of which are wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company, are maintained in their local currencies, the Euro and the Canadian dollar, respectively, and have been translated to U.S. dollars. Accordingly, the amounts representing assets and liabilities have been translated at the period-end rates of exchange and related revenue and expense accounts have been translated at an average rate of exchange during the period. Gains and losses arising from translation of Cal OpEx Limited’s and Transcat Canada Inc.’s financial statements into U.S. dollars are recorded directly to the accumulated other comprehensive loss component of shareholders’ equity.

Transcat records foreign currency gains and losses on business transactions denominated in foreign currency. The net foreign currency loss was $0.1 million in fiscal year 2025, a loss of $0.1 million in fiscal year 2024 and a loss of $0.7 million in fiscal year 2023. The Company continually utilizes short-term foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce the risk that its future earnings denominated in Canadian dollars would be adversely affected by changes in currency exchange rates. The Company does not apply hedge accounting and therefore the net change in the fair value of the contracts, which totaled a gain than $0.2 million, a loss of $0.1 million and a gain of $0.4 million in fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, was recognized as a component of Interest and Other Expenses, net in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The change in the fair value of the contracts is offset by the change in fair value on the underlying accounts receivables denominated in Canadian dollars being hedged. On March 29, 2025, the Company had a foreign exchange contract, which matured in April 2025, outstanding in the notional amount of $1.1 million. This contract was subsequently renewed and remains in place. The Company does not use hedging arrangements for speculative purposes.

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss): Other comprehensive income (loss) is composed of currency translation adjustments, unrecognized prior service costs from post-retirement plan, net of tax, and unrealized gains or losses on other assets, net of tax.

The Company determines the expense and obligations for its post-retirement plans using assumptions related to discount rates, expected long-term rates of return on invested plan assets, and certain other factors. The Company determines the fair value of plan assets and benefit obligations as of the end of each fiscal year. The unrecognized portion of the gain or loss on plan assets is included in the consolidated balance sheets as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in shareholders’ equity and is recognized into the plans’ expense over time. See Note 5 for further discussion on the Company’s post-retirement plan.

The Company has a non-qualified deferred compensation plan for the benefit of certain management employees and non-employee directors. Investment assets, which fund the Company’s non-qualified deferred compensation plan, consist of mutual funds. The unrecognized portion of the gain or loss on plan assets is included in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

At March 29, 2025, accumulated other comprehensive loss consisted of cumulative currency translation losses of $1.5 million, unrecognized prior service costs, net of tax, of less than $0.1 million and an unrealized gain on other assets, net of tax, of less than $0.1 million. At March 30, 2024, accumulated other comprehensive loss consisted of cumulative currency translation losses of $0.9 million, unrecognized prior service costs, net of tax, of $0.1 million and an unrealized gain on other assets, net of tax, of less than $0.1 million.

Earnings Per Share: Basic earnings per share of the Company's common stock, par value $0.50 per share ("common stock"), are computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share of common stock reflect the assumed conversion of stock options and unvested restricted stock units using the treasury stock method in periods in which they have a dilutive effect. In computing the per share effect of assumed conversion, proceeds received from the exercise of options and unvested restricted stock units are considered to have been used to purchase shares of common stock at the average market prices during the period, and the resulting net additional shares of common stock are included in the calculation of average shares of common stock outstanding.

For fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023, the net additional common stock equivalents had a $(0.01), $(0.03) and $(0.02) per share effect on the calculation of dilutive earnings per share, respectively. The average shares outstanding used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share are as follows (amounts in thousands):

|  | Fiscal Year Ended |
|  | March 29, |  |  | March 30, |  |  | March 25, |
|  | 2025 |  |  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |
Average Shares Outstanding – Basic |  |  | 9,185 |  |  |  | 8,239 |  |  |  | 7,551 |

NOTE 3 – LONG-TERM DEBT

On July 7, 2021, the Company entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Facility Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company (“M&T”), that amended and restated in its entirety the Company’s prior credit agreement with M&T.

The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit commitment (the “revolving credit facility”) of $80.0 million through June 2026, with a letter of credit subfacility of $10.0 million. The Company's 2018 term loan, with an original principal amount of $15.0 million (the "2018 Term Loan"), is also provided for under the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement allows the Company to use up to $50.0 million under the revolving credit facility for acquisitions in any single fiscal year. The Credit Agreement restricts the Company's ability to complete acquisitions of businesses with a principal place of business located in the United Kingdom or the European Union to an aggregate purchase price of $40.0 million during the term of the Credit Agreement, if the acquisition is financed directly or indirectly with the revolving credit facility.

Under the Credit Agreement, the Company may make restricted payments up to $25.0 million in the aggregate over the term of the Credit Agreement and $10.0 million in any single fiscal year to repurchase shares and pay dividends.

As of March 29, 2025, $80.0 million was available for borrowing under the revolving credit facility, of which $30.9 million was outstanding. During fiscal year 2025, $87.4 million from cash on hand and the revolving credit facility was used for two business acquisitions.

As of March 29, 2025, $1.8 million was outstanding on the 2018 Term Loan, which was included in current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The 2018 Term Loan requires total repayments (principal plus interest) of $0.2 million per month through December 2025.

Interest and Other Costs: Effective July 1, 2023, interest on outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility accrue, at Transcat’s election, at either the variable Daily Simple SOFR or a fixed rate for a designated period at the SOFR corresponding to such period (subject to a 0.25% floor), in each case, plus a margin. Unused fees accrue based on the average daily amount of unused credit available on the revolving credit facility. Interest rate margins and unused fees are determined on a quarterly basis based upon the Company’s calculated leverage ratio. The Company’s interest rate for the revolving credit facility for fiscal year 2025 ranged from 5.1% to 6.2%. The Company's interest rate for the revolving credit facility at March 29, 2025 was 5.2%. Interest on outstanding borrowings under the 2018 Term Loan accrue at a fixed rate of 3.90% over the term of the loan.

Covenants: The Credit Agreement has certain covenants with which the Company must comply, including a fixed charge ratio covenant, which prohibits the Company's fixed charge ratio from being less than 1.15 to 1.00, and a leverage ratio covenant, which prohibits the Company's leverage ratio from exceeding 3.00 to 1.00. The Company was in compliance with all loan covenants and requirements during fiscal years 2025 and 2024.

Other Terms: The Company has pledged all of its U.S. tangible and intangible personal property, the equity interests of its U.S.-based subsidiaries, and a majority of the common stock of Transcat Canada Inc. as collateral security for the loans made under the revolving credit facility.

The Company files income tax returns with the U.S. government and various states as well as foreign governments. Open fiscal years subject to U.S. Government federal examination are 2022 through 2024. Open fiscal years subject to state examination are 2021 through 2024. The Company also files in Canada and Ireland. Open fiscal years subject to examination for Canada are 2021 through 2024; open fiscal years subject to examination for Ireland are 2021 to 2024. There are no income tax years currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service, states, Canadian and Irish tax authorities. The Company's foreign subsidiary undistributed earnings are considered to be permanently reinvested. At March 29, 2025, the Company had net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards of $1.2 million in the U.S. and $0.3 million in Ireland, which could be used to offset future taxable income and reduce income tax expense. These NOL carryforwards will not expire.

The Company’s policy regarding interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters is to recognize such items as a component of the income tax provision. The Company recognized no interest expense or penalties associated with uncertain tax benefits accrued for fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, the amount of unrecognized tax liability from uncertain positions was $0 at year-end fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023.

The Company assesses its deferred tax assets annually for expected utilization. If deemed necessary, valuation allowances are established to reduce the deferred tax assets to their net realizable value to the extent it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized based on the character of the carryforward item, the associated taxing jurisdiction, the relevant history for the particular item, the applicable expiration dates, and identified actions under the control of the Company in realizing such assets. The Company assesses the available positive and negative evidence surrounding the recoverability of the deferred tax assets and applies its judgment in estimating the amount of valuation allowance necessary. The Company has determined that a valuation allowance of $0 is appropriate for fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023.

NOTE 5 – EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

Defined Contribution Plan. All of Transcat’s U.S. based employees are eligible to participate in a defined contribution plan, the Long-Term Savings and Deferred Profit Sharing Plan (the “Plan”), provided they meet certain qualifications. In fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company matched 50% of the first 6% of pay that eligible employees contribute to the Plan.

In the long-term savings portion of the Plan (the “401K Plan”), plan participants are entitled to a distribution of their vested account balance upon termination of employment or retirement. Plan participants are fully vested in their contributions while Company contributions are fully vested after three years of service. The Company’s matching contributions to the 401K Plan were approximately $1.8 million, $1.5 million and $1.2 million in fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

In the deferred profit sharing portion of the Plan, Company contributions are made at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company made no profit sharing contributions in fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The Company has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) that allows for eligible employees as defined in the ESPP to purchase common shares of the Company through payroll deductions at a price that is 85% of the closing market price on the second last business day of each calendar month (the “Investment Date”). 650,000 shares can be purchased under the ESPP. The difference between the closing market price on the Investment Date and the price paid by employees is recorded as a general and administrative expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. The expense related to the ESPP was less than $0.1 million in each of fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023.

Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan. The Company has available a non-qualified deferred compensation plan (the “NQDC Plan”) for directors and officers. Participants are fully vested in their contributions. At its discretion, the Company may elect to match employee contributions, subject to legal limitations in conjunction with the 401K Plan, which fully vest after three years of service. During fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not match any employee contributions. Participant accounts are adjusted to reflect performance, whether positive or negative, of selected investment options chosen by each participant during the deferral period. In the event of bankruptcy, the assets of the NQDC Plan are available to satisfy the claims of the Company’s general creditors. The liability for compensation deferred under the NQDC Plan was $0.1 million as of both March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024, and is included as a component of other liabilities (non-current) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Post-retirement Health Care Plans. The Company has a defined benefit post-retirement health care plan which provides long-term care insurance benefits, medical and dental insurance benefits and medical premium reimbursement benefits to eligible retired corporate officers and their eligible spouses (the “Officer Plan”).

The change in the post-retirement benefit obligation is as follows (amounts in thousands):

Unrecognized prior service cost |  | $ | (36 | ) |  | $ | 63 |  |  | $ | 163 |

The prior service cost is amortized over the average remaining life expectancy of active participants in the Officer Plan. The estimated prior service cost that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive income into net periodic post-retirement benefit cost during fiscal year 2025 is less than $0.1 million.

The post-retirement benefit obligation was computed by an independent third-party actuary. Assumptions used to determine the post-retirement benefit obligation and the net periodic postretirement benefit cost were as follows:

|  | March 29, |  |  | March 30, |
|  | 2025 |  |  | 2024 |
Weighted average discount rate |  |  | 5.4 | % |  |  | 5.2 | %

Trend rate assumed for next year |  |  | 7.8 | % |  |  | 7.8 | %
Ultimate trend rate |  |  | 4.0 | % |  |  | 4.0 | %
Year that rate reaches ultimate trend rate |  |  | 2075 |  |  |  | 2075 |
Dental care cost trend rate: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Trend rate assumed for next year and remaining at that level thereafter |  |  | 3.5 | % |  |  | 3.5 | %

Benefit payments are funded by the Company as needed. Payments toward the cost of a retiree’s medical and dental coverage are initially determined as a percentage of a base coverage plan in the year of retirement and are limited to increase at a rate of no more than 50% of the annual increase in medical and dental costs, as defined in the plan document. The following benefit payments, which reflect expected future service, as appropriate, are expected to be paid as follows (amounts in thousands):

Fiscal Year |  | Amount |
2026 |  | $ | 61 |
2027 |  |  | 71 |
2028 |  |  | 85 |
2029 |  |  | 99 |
2030 |  |  | 95 |
Thereafter |  | $ | 601 |

Increasing the assumed health care cost trend rate by one percentage point would increase the accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation and the annual net periodic post-retirement benefit cost by $0.1 million. A one percentage point decrease in the healthcare cost trend would decrease the accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation and the annual net periodic post-retirement benefit cost by $0.1 million.

NOTE 6 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

In September 2021, the Transcat, Inc. 2021 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”) was approved by shareholders and became effective. The 2021 Plan replaced the Transcat, Inc. 2003 Incentive Plan (the “2003 Plan”). Shares available for grant under the 2021 Plan include any shares remaining available for issuance under the 2003 Plan and any shares that are subject to outstanding awards under the 2003 Plan that are subsequently canceled, expired, forfeited, or otherwise not issued or are settled in cash. The 2021 Plan provides for, among other awards, grants of restricted stock units and stock options to directors, officers and key employees at the fair market value at the date of grant. At March 29, 2025, 0.6 million shares of common stock were available for future grant under the 2021 Plan.

The Company receives an excess tax benefit related to restricted stock vesting and stock options exercised and redeemed. The discrete benefits related to share-based compensation and stock option activity in fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023 were $1.3 million, $0.6 million and $0.4 million, respectively.

Restricted Stock Units: The Company grants time-based and performance-based restricted stock units as a component of executive and key employee compensation. Expense for restricted stock unit grants is recognized on a straight-line basis for the service period of the stock award based upon fair value of the award on the date of grant. The fair value of the restricted stock unit grants is the quoted market price for the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. These restricted stock units are either time vested, or vest following the third fiscal year from the date of grant subject to cumulative diluted earnings per share or cumulative Adjusted EBITDA targets over the eligible period.

During fiscal year 2025, on the date of the annual meeting of shareholders, the Company’s non-employee directors received an annual grant of restricted stock units valued at $85,000 that vests after one year. During fiscal years 2024 and 2023, the Company's non-employee directors received an annual grant of restricted stock units valued at $50,000 that vested after one year.

Compensation cost ultimately recognized for performance-based restricted stock units will equal the grant date fair market value of the unit that coincides with the actual outcome of the performance conditions. On an interim basis, the Company records compensation cost based on the estimated level of achievement of the performance conditions. The expense relating to the time vested restricted stock units is recognized on a straight-line basis less estimate for forfeitures over the requisite service period for the entire award.

During fiscal year 2025, 32,000 shares of time-vested restricted stock units were granted and 10,000 shares of performance-based restricted stock units were granted. During fiscal year 2024, 38,000 shares of time-vested restricted stock units were granted and 10,000 shares of performance-based restricted stock units were granted. During fiscal year 2023, 19,000 shares of time-vested restricted stock units were granted and 11,000 shares of performance-based restricted stock units were granted. Performance-based restricted stock units can be earned up to a maximum of 150% of shares awarded.

Total expense relating to restricted stock units, based on grant date fair value and the achievement criteria, was $2.4 million, $3.2 million and $2.0 million in fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of March 29, 2025, unearned compensation, to be recognized over the grants’ respective service periods, totaled $4.2 million based on estimated achievement levels as of March 30, 2025. If the maximum performance levels were achieved, the unearned compensation could be a maximum of $5.5 million.

Stock Options: The Company grants stock options to employees and directors with an exercise price equal to the quoted market price of the Company’s stock at the date of the grant. The fair value of stock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing formula that requires assumptions for expected volatility, expected dividends, the risk-free interest rate and the expected term of the option. Expense for stock options is recognized on a straight-lined basis over the requisite service period for each award. Options vest either immediately or over a period of up to five years using a straight-line basis and expire either five years or ten years from the date of grant.

We calculate the fair value of the stock options granted using the Black-Scholes model. The following weighted-average assumptions were used to value options granted during fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023:

|  | FY 2025 |  |  | FY 2024 |  |  | FY 2023 |
Risk-Free Interest Rate |  |  | 4.35 | % |  |  | 4.08 | % |  |  | 2.65 | %
Volatility Factor |  |  | 40.98 | % |  |  | 37.27 | % |  |  | 37.62 | %
Expected Term (in Years) |  |  | 4 |  |  |  | 6.34 |  |  |  | 4.58 |
Annual Dividend Rate |  |  | 0.00 | % |  |  | 0.00 | % |  |  | 0.00 | %

Table of Contents

We calculate expected volatility for stock options by taking an average of historical volatility over the expected term. The computation of expected term was determined based on safe harbor rules, giving consideration to the contractual terms of the stock-based awards and vesting schedules. The interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the award is based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of grant. We assume no expected dividends. Under FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, the Company has elected to account for forfeitures as they occur.

During fiscal year 2025, the Company granted options for 10,000 shares of common stock in the aggregate to Company employees that vest over three years.

During fiscal year 2024, the Company granted options for 7,000 shares of common stock in the aggregate to Company employees that vest over three years, an option for 10,000 shares of common stock to a Company employee that vests over five years and options for 30,000 shares of common stock (10,000 each) to three Company directors that vest over five years.

During fiscal year 2023, the Company granted options for 46,000 shares of common stock in the aggregate to Company employees that vest over three years and an option for 10,000 shares of common stock to a Company director that vests over five years.

The expense related to all stock option awards was $0.8 million, $1.3 million and $1.4 million in fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (the difference between the Company’s closing stock price on the last trading day of fiscal year 2025 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money stock options) that would have been received by the option holders had all holders exercised their options on March 29, 2025. The amount of aggregate intrinsic value will change based on the fair market value of the Company’s common stock.

Total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options as of March 29, 2025 was $1.4 million, which is expected to be recognized over a period of three years. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercised in fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023 was $3.2 million, $1.3 million and $0.3 million, respectively. Cash received from the exercise of options in fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023 was $1.3 million, $1.5 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

NOTE 7 – SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC DATA

Operating segments represent a component of the Company that engages in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the public entity’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. Once operating segments are identified, the Company determined which of those operating segments are required to be presented as reportable segments based on the quantitative thresholds.

Transcat has two reportable segments: Service and Distribution. Through our Service segment, we offer calibration, repair, inspection, analytical qualifications, preventative maintenance, consulting and other related services. Through our Distribution segment, we sell and rent national and proprietary brand instruments to customers globally. There are no intersegment revenues.

Our CODM is Lee Rudow, President & Chief Executive Officer. Both of our reportable segments are regularly reviewed by the CODM through monthly revenue, gross profit, operating income and consolidated financial forecast updates and through regular and monthly meetings with the executive leadership team.

The primary financial measure used by the CODM for our reportable segments is Operating Income, as reported in our Consolidated Statements of Income and is most consistent with the measurement principles used in the consolidated financial statements. This is used by the CODM to make decisions on resource allocation, assess the performance of the business, and monitor budget versus actual results.

Significant expenses reviewed by the CODM consist of cost of revenue and operating expenses, which individually are consistent in total with what is shown on the face of the consolidated statements of income.

The CODM does not review assets in evaluating the results of our segments, and therefore, such information is not presented.

NOTE 8 – COMMITMENTS

Leases:

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Payments under our lease arrangements are primarily fixed. Lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the present value of the future lease payments at the lease commencement date. The interest rate used to determine the present value of the future lease payments is our incremental borrowing rate, because the interest rate implicit in our leases is not readily determinable. Our incremental borrowing rate is estimated to approximate the interest rate on a collateralized basis with similar terms and payments, and in economic environments where the leased asset is located. Our lease terms include periods under options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Our lease agreements generally contain lease and non-lease components. Historically, non-lease components such as utilities have been immaterial.

Transcat leases facilities, equipment, and vehicles under various non-cancelable operating leases. As of March 29, 2025, the remaining lease terms on our operating leases range from approximately one year to fifteen years, and include any renewal and/or termination options that are reasonably certain to be exercised by the Company. There is no transfer of title or option to purchase the leased assets upon expiration. The weighted average discount rate for fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023 was 4.4%, 4.1% and 3.9%, respectively. The weighted average remaining lease term is approximately eleven years. Short-term leases are leases having a term of 12 months or less. The Company recognizes short-term leases on an as incurred basis and does not record a related lease asset or liability for such leases. Short-term lease expense was immaterial in fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023.

The components of lease expense for the current and prior-year comparative periods were as follows (dollars in thousands):

|  | FY 2025 |  |  | FY 2024 |  |  | FY 2023 |
Operating lease cost |  | $ | 6,606 |  |  | $ | 5,948 |  |  | $ | 4,730 |
Variable lease cost |  |  | 691 |  |  |  | 666 |  |  |  | 608 |
Total lease cost |  | $ | 7,297 |  |  | $ | 6,614 |  |  | $ | 5,338 |

Supplemental cash flow information related to leases was as follows:

|  | FY 2025 |  |  | FY 2024 |  |  | FY 2023 |
Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Operating cash flow from operating leases |  | $ | 2,018 |  |  | $ | 2,954 |  |  | $ | 2,469 |
Right to Use Assets obtained in exchange for lease liabilities |  | $ | 9,723 |  |  | $ | 4,965 |  |  | $ | 4,519 |

Total rental expense was approximately $7.3 million, $6.6 million and $5.3 million in fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The minimum future annual rental payments under the non-cancelable leases at March 29, 2025 are as follows (in millions):

Fiscal Year |  |  | Amount |
2026 |  | $ | 6.1 |
2027 |  |  | 5.0 |
2028 |  |  | 4.7 |
2029 |  |  | 3.1 |
2030 |  |  | 2.4 |
Thereafter |  |  | 11.7 |

Contingent Consideration:

In connection with the acquisition of NEXA, there were potential earn-out payments of up to $7.5 million over the four-year period following the closing of the transaction based upon NEXA achieving certain annual revenue and EBITDA goals.

During fiscal year 2024, the Company entered into an Amendment to the Share Purchase Agreement with NEXA (the “First Amendment”). Pursuant to the First Amendment, the potential earn-out payments would have been up to $7.1 million for the Earn-Out years of calendar year 2023, 2024 and 2025 based upon NEXA achieving certain EBITDA goals. If achieved, the earn-out payments would be made in shares of common stock unless certain criteria is met for cash payment. Subsequent to fiscal year 2024, the Company entered into an Amendment to the Share Purchase Agreement with NEXA (the “Second Amendment”). Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the Company agreed to pay approximately $0.5 million for the Earn-Out year of calendar year 2023 and removed the entitlement for any future earn-out payments. As of March 30, 2024, the estimated fair value of the 2023 earn-out payment was approximately $0.5 million. This payment was made during fiscal year 2025. As of March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024, the estimated fair value of the 2024 and 2025 earn-out payments was zero. See Note 9.

NOTE 9 – BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

Martin: Effective December 10, 2024, the Company acquired all of the membership units of Martin Calibration, Inc, a privately-held Minnesota calibration services company ("Martin"). Martin is ISO 17025 certified. This transaction aligned with a key component of the Company’s acquisition strategy of targeting businesses that expand the depth and breadth of the Company’s service capabilities.

The Martin goodwill is primarily attributable to the workforce acquired, as well as operational synergies and other intangibles that do not qualify for separate recognition. The goodwill and intangible assets relating to the Martin acquisition have been allocated to the Service segment. Intangible assets related to the Martin acquisition are being amortized for financial reporting purposes on an accelerated basis over the estimated useful life of up to 30 years and are deductible for tax purposes. Amortization of goodwill related to the Martin acquisition is deductible for income tax purposes.

The total purchase price for Martin was approximately $81.8 million consisting of $71.9 million in cash and the issuance of our common stock valued at $9.9 million, including $2.0 million in cash placed in escrow for certain post-closing adjustments and indemnification claims, if any. As of March 29, 2025, $2.2 million remains unpaid and is reflected in current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The purchase price allocation is subject to revision based upon our final review of tangible and intangible asset valuation assumptions, working capital adjustments, assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration transferred. The following is a summary of the preliminary purchase price allocation, in the aggregate, to the fair value, based on Level 3 inputs, of Martin's assets and liabilities acquired on December 10, 2024 (in thousands):

Goodwill |  | 38,871 |
Intangible Assets – Customer Base & Contracts |  |  | 32,000 |
Intangible Assets – Trademarks and Tradenames |  |  | 3,200 |
|  |  | 74,071 |
Plus: Cash |  |  | 296 |
Accounts Receivable |  |  | 4,652 |
Property and Equipment |  |  | 3,412 |
Right To Use Assets |  |  | 5,811 |
Other Current Assets |  |  | 475 |
Less: Current Liabilities |  |  | (1,098 | )
Lease Liabilities |  |  | (5,813 | )
Total Purchase Price |  | $ | 81,806 |

From the date of acquisition through the end of fiscal year 2025, Martin has contributed revenue of $8.8 million and an operating income of $0.5 million, which includes the negative impact of amortization of the acquired intangible assets.

Becnel: Effective April 15, 2024, the Company acquired Becnel, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Becnel agreement”), by and among the Company, Becnel and the other parties thereto. Becnel is an ISO 9001:2015 certified provider of rental tools and services primarily utilized in the decommissioning and maintenance of oil wells. This transaction aligned with a key component of the Company’s acquisition strategy of targeting businesses that expand the depth and breadth of the Company’s service and rental capabilities.

The Becnel goodwill is primarily attributable to the workforce acquired, as well as operational synergies and other intangibles that do not qualify for separate recognition. The goodwill and intangible assets relating to the Becnel acquisition have been allocated to both the Service and Distribution segment. Intangible assets related to the Becnel acquisition are being amortized for financial reporting purposes on an accelerated basis over the estimated useful life of up to eleven years and are deductible for tax purposes. Amortization of goodwill related to the Becnel acquisition is deductible for income tax purposes.

The total purchase price for Becnel was approximately $49.8 million consisting of up to $17.5 million in cash and the issuance of our common stock valued at $32.3 million. Pursuant to the Becnel agreement, the Company held back approximately $2.5 million of the purchase price for certain potential post-closing adjustments. This includes $0.5 million withheld for ordinary post-closing adjustments and $2.0 million withheld that is subject to revenue target achievement.

Pursuant to the Becnel agreement, the purchase price is subject to reduction by $2.0 million if certain revenue targets are not met through April 15, 2026. As of April 15, 2024 and December 28, 2024, the estimated fair value of this contingent consideration, classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, was approximately $1.5 million and $1.6 million, respectively. This amount was calculated using a Geometric Brownian motion distribution that was then used in a Monte Carlo simulation model. Assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation model included: 1) discount rate of 11.00%, 2) risk-free interest rate of 5.00%, 3) asset volatility of 30.00%, and 4) forecasted revenue. 50% of this contingent consideration is payable in cash and 50% of this contingent consideration is payable in 9,283 shares of Transcat common stock. The cash portion of the contingent consideration is classified as a liability and is recorded in other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The stock portion of the contingent consideration is classified as equity and is recorded in shareholders equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The contingent consideration payout will either be $0 or $2.0 million depending on the revenue target achievement.

This cash portion of the contingent consideration is remeasured quarterly. If, as a result of remeasurement, the value of the cash portion of the contingent consideration changes, any charges or income will be included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income. After reviewing the fiscal year 2026 forecast, the Company revalued the contingent consideration payout during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025. As of March 29, 2025, the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration, classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, was zero. This amount was calculated using a Geometric Brownian motion distribution that was then used in a Monte Carlo simulation model. Assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation model included: 1) discount rate of 14.50%, 2) risk-free interest rate of 4.01%, 3) asset volatility of 30.00%, and 4) forecasted revenue. The Company recognized a non-cash gain of approximately $0.8 million, which was recorded in general and administrative expenses in its Consolidated Statement of Income for the quarter ended March 29, 2025.

Due to the uncertainty with utilizing these significant unobservable inputs for this Level 3 fair value measurement, materially higher or lower fair value measurements may be recognized at subsequent remeasurement periods.

NEXA: Effective August 31, 2021, Transcat purchased all of the outstanding capital stock of Cal OpEx Limited (d/b/a NEXA Enterprise Asset Management), an Irish company, which owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of its U.S.-based subsidiary, Cal OpEx Inc., a Delaware corporation (collectively, “NEXA”). On September 11, 2023, the Company entered into the first amendment (the “First Amendment”) to a Share Purchase Agreement dated August 31, 2021 (the “Purchase Agreement”) with John Cummins and Ross Lane (the “Sellers”) associated with the Company’s purchase of all of the outstanding capital stock of NEXA. As described below, the First Amendment changed the conditions necessary for the Sellers to receive potential earn-out payments, changes the lines of business included in the calculation of earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), and changes the outside due date of any potential earn-out payments. On May 20, 2024, the Company entered into the second amendment to the Purchase Agreement (the “Second Amendment”). As described below, the Second Amendment removed the entitlement for future earn-out payments.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Sellers were entitled to potential earn-out payments in an aggregate amount of up to $7.5 million for the calendar years ending December 31, 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025 (each, an “Earn-Out Year”) if NEXA’s consolidated gross revenue, as defined in the Purchase Agreement, equaled or exceeded 70% of the target revenue specified in the Purchase Agreement and NEXA’s consolidated EBITDA percentage, as defined in the Purchase Agreement, equaled or exceeded 25% for a given earn-out year. The potential earn-out payment of up to $0.4 million for the 2022 Earn-Out Year was not earned under the Purchase Agreement.

Pursuant to the First Amendment, the Sellers were entitled to potential earn-out payments in an aggregate amount of up to $7.1 million for the remaining Earn-Out Years (2023, 2024 and 2025) if NEXA’s consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Amendment, equaled or exceeded 70% of the target EBITDA specified in the Amendment for a given earn-out year. Pursuant to the First Amendment, the definition of EBITDA was revised to include EBITDA from the Commissioning, Qualification and Validation business ("CQV") and incremental EBITDA from the SteriQual, Inc. business. The maximum earn-out payment would have been received if NEXA’s consolidated EBITDA equaled or exceeded 150% of the target EBITDA specified in the First Amendment. The earn-out payments, if any, would be paid in shares of common stock, calculated using the volume-weighted average closing price of the common stock for 30 consecutive trading days ending on the trading day that is two days prior to the date the earn-out payment is to be paid (“VWAP”). If the VWAP is less than $45.07 per share, then the Company may pay the earn-out payment in cash in lieu of shares of common stock.

As of March 25, 2023, the estimated fair value for the total earn-out obligations under the original Purchase Agreement, classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, was zero.

After entering into the First Amendment during the third quarter of fiscal year 2024, the Company revalued the earn-out obligations. As of September 23, 2023, the estimated fair value for the total earn-out obligations under the First Amendment, classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, was approximately $2.8 million. This amount was calculated using a Geometric Brownian motion distribution that was then used in a Monte Carlo simulation model. Assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation model included: 1) discount rate of 9.00%, 2) risk-free interest rate of 5.00%, 3) asset volatility of 25.00%, and 4) forecasted revenue and EBITDA. The Company recognized a non-cash expense of $2.8 million, which was recorded in general and administrative expenses in its Consolidated Statement of Income for the quarter ended September 23, 2023.

As of December 23, 2023, the estimated fair value of the total earn-out obligations under the First Amendment was approximately $2.9 million. The change in accrual is due to the actual results of the 2023 calendar Earn-Out Year and the accretion of the 2024 and 2025 Earn-Out Years. As a result, the Company recognized a non-cash expense of $0.1 million, which was recorded in general and administrative expenses in its Consolidated Statement of Income for the quarter ended December 23, 2023.

After reviewing the fiscal year 2025 budget and revised revenue and EBITDA forecasts for the remainder of calendar 2025, during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024, the Company revalued the earn-out obligations. As of March 30, 2024, the estimated fair value for the total earn-out obligations under the First Amendment, classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, was zero. This amount was calculated using a Geometric Brownian motion distribution that was then used in a Monte Carlo simulation model. Assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation model included: 1) discount rate of 12.00%, 2) risk-free interest rate of 4.70%, 3) asset volatility of 22.50%, and 4) forecasted revenue and EBITDA. The Company recognized a non-cash gain of approximately $2.4 million, which was recorded in general and administrative expenses in its Consolidated Statement of Income for the quarter ended March 30, 2024. As of March 30, 2024, the 2023 calendar Earn-Out Year was $0.5 million. This was paid during the first quarter of fiscal year 2025.

Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the Company agreed to pay approximately $0.5 million for the 2023 Earn-Out Year and removed the entitlement for any future earn-out payments.

Certain of the Company’s acquisition agreements include provisions for contingent consideration and other holdback amounts. The Company accrues for contingent consideration and holdback provisions based on their estimated fair value at the date of acquisition and at subsequent remeasurement periods, as applicable. As of March 29, 2025, no contingent consideration and $2.8 million of other holdback amounts were unpaid and are reflected in current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and $1.6 million of other holdback amounts unpaid are reflected in other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. During fiscal year 2025, $2.7 million of holdback amounts were paid. During fiscal year 2024, $0.8 million of holdback amounts were paid. During fiscal year 2023, no contingent consideration or other holdback amounts were paid.

During fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023, acquisition costs of $1.3 million, $1.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively, were recorded as incurred as general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

NOTE 10 – SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

On September 21, 2023, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement with Oppenheimer & Co. Inc., as representative of several underwriters, for the sale of common stock in an underwritten public offering at a public offering price of $95.00 per share (the “Offering”). The Offering closed on September 25, 2023 and the Company sold an aggregate of 847,371 shares in the Offering, which included 110,526 shares issued upon the exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option, for total gross proceeds of $80.5 million. Net proceeds received after direct costs in the Offering were $75.2 million. A portion of the net proceeds from this Offering were used to pay off the revolving credit facility in full.

During each of fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company repurchased and subsequently retired less than 0.1 million shares of its common stock. The Company allows its employees the option of satisfying the employee tax withholding obligations with either cash or a net share repurchase. The repurchase of shares was for the net awarding of certain share awards to cover employee tax-withholding obligations for share award and stock option activity, totaling $3.6 million in fiscal year 2025, $4.9 million in fiscal year 2024 and $0.4 million in fiscal year 2023. There were no stock option redemptions during fiscal year 2025, fiscal year 2024 or fiscal year 2023.

None.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (“Exchange Act”) Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our principal executive officer and principal financial officer to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Effective December 10, 2024, the Company acquired Martin Calibration Inc. and effective April 15, 2024, the Company acquired Becnel Rental Tools, LLC. The financial results of these acquisitions are included in the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended March 29, 2025 and represent approximately 6% of total revenues and 6% of total assets excluding intangible assets and goodwill related to the acquisitions, respectively. Management is currently integrating Martin and Becnel into our operations and internal control processes and, pursuant to the SEC’s guidance that an assessment of a recently acquired business may be omitted from the scope of an assessment in the year of acquisition, the Company is excluding the internal control over financial reporting of Martin and Becnel from its evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 29, 2025.

Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of such date.

(b) Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Management's report on internal control over financial reporting and the attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our internal control over financial reporting are set forth in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and are incorporated by reference herein.

(c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter covered by this annual report (our fourth fiscal quarter) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
