MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY
"VSE is off to a record start to 2026, with organic revenue growth of 15% in the quarter, led by strong performance in our distribution business and supported by continued growth in MRO. This growth was driven by robust commercial engine aftermarket activity, strong execution on new programs, and continued market share gains," said John Cuomo, President and Chief Executive Officer of VSE Corporation. "In the first quarter, we also advanced key OEM distribution programs, began implementing new business awards, expanded MRO capacity, invested in new growth opportunities, and made meaningful progress on our acquisition integrations.
"On April 1, 2026, we acquired NorthStar Technologies, LLC (“NorthStar”), a provider of MRO and third-party logistics services supporting the engine aftermarket. This acquisition expands our engine service capabilities in the business and general aviation market and strengthens our OEM-focused strategy by deepening integration within OEM aftermarket supply chains while addressing increasing demand for teardown and labor-intensive services.
"On May 5, 2026, we completed the acquisition of Precision Aviation Group (“PAG”), further expanding our global footprint, strengthening our repair capabilities, and enhancing our ability to deliver integrated, end-to-end solutions to our customers. With the addition of PAG, a robust pipeline of organic growth opportunities, and multiple strategic initiatives advancing in parallel, we believe we are well-positioned to drive continued above-market revenue growth, margin expansion, improved cash generation, and long-term shareholder value throughout the year," concluded Cuomo.
"Our first quarter results reflect meaningful progress across our key financial priorities," said Adam Cohn, Chief Financial Officer of VSE Corporation. "In connection with the acquisition of Precision Aviation Group, we completed follow-on equity and tangible equity unit offerings and a debt refinancing that enhanced our liquidity profile and financial flexibility. Pro forma for the acquisition, Adjusted Net Leverage(2) is now expected to be below 3.0x and to improve throughout the year, supported by continued Adjusted EBITDA growth and strong cash flow generation."
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
•ACQUIRED PAG: On May 5, 2026, VSE acquired PAG from GenNx360 Capital Partners for $2.025 billion in cash and equity. The acquisition significantly expands VSE’s scale, increases its proprietary solutions content, and further strengthens its position as a mission-critical partner serving a diverse customer base across commercial, business and general aviation, rotorcraft, OEM, and defense markets. The business is expected to be immediately accretive to VSE's Adjusted EBITDA margin.
•ACQUIRED NORTHSTAR: On April 1, 2026, VSE acquired NorthStar, a provider of MRO, third-party logistics, and engine kitting services supporting the aftermarket. NorthStar delivers teardown, kitting, and other labor- and technically intensive services across multiple engine platforms. The acquisition enhances VSE’s position within OEM aftermarket supply chains, expands its service capabilities in business and general aviation, and provides strong demand visibility through an established backlog and customer integration. The business operates under a capital-light model and supports increasing demand for engine teardown and component-level services.
•COMPLETED FOLLOW-ON EQUITY AND TANGIBLE EQUITY UNIT OFFERINGS AND REFINANCING OF TERM LOAN A AND REVOLVER: In connection with the PAG acquisition, VSE completed follow-on equity and tangible equity unit offerings and entered into a credit agreement amendment providing for a new $900 million Term Loan B and an upsized $500 million revolving credit facility. The new Term Loan B refinanced and replaced the Company's existing Term Loan A. The new capital structure provides enhanced flexibility and scalability to support future growth, with an attractive interest rate, and extended maturity, strengthening VSE’s cash flow profile.
FIRST QUARTER RESULTS
The Company's revenue increased 27% year-over-year to a record $324.6 million in the first quarter of 2026. The year-over-year revenue increase was attributable to strong commercial engine end-market activity, the execution of previously awarded distribution agreements, new product introductions, new repair capabilities and capacity expansion, and contributions from recent acquisitions. Distribution and repair revenue increased 26% and 28%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2026, versus the prior-year period. The Company reported operating income of $32.7 million in the first quarter, compared to $24.5 million in the same period of 2025. Adjusted EBITDA(2) increased by 37% in the first quarter to $55.4 million, versus $40.4 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 17.1%, an increase of approximately 130 basis points versus the prior-year period, driven primarily by greater mix of higher-margin product and repair activity, higher-margin OEM licensed manufacturing sales, and continued synergy realization from recent acquisitions.
FINANCIAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
As of March 31, 2026, the Company's total debt outstanding was $366.3 million and the Company's then-current $400.0 million revolving credit facility was undrawn. The Company had approximately $1.2 billion of cash and cash equivalents on hand, of which a majority was used to fund the PAG acquisition at closing on May 5.
UPDATED FULL YEAR 2026 CONSOLIDATED GUIDANCE
REVENUE
VSE is updating its full year 2026 revenue guidance to reflect the inclusion of PAG, which closed on May 5, 2026. The Company now expects full year revenue growth in the range of 57% to 61%, compared to its prior outlook of 19% to 23%. This increase is driven by the addition of PAG and reflects no change in expectations for VSE’s underlying business. The updated revenue guidance is presented net of intercompany eliminations.
ADJUSTED EBITDA MARGIN
VSE is also updating its full year 2026 Adjusted EBITDA margin outlook to reflect the addition of PAG. The Company now expects Adjusted EBITDA margin in the range of 18.1% to 18.5%, compared to its prior outlook of 16.8% to 17.3%. Consistent with the revenue update, this change is driven by the inclusion of PAG and does not reflect any change in expectations for the underlying business.
2 Non-GAAP measures. See additional information at the end of this release regarding non-GAAP financial measures.
FIRST QUARTER RESULTS
Three months ended March 31,
(in thousands, except per share data) 2026 2025 % Change
Revenues $ 324,580 $ 256,045 26.8 %
Operating income $ 32,748 $ 24,504 33.6 %
Net income from continuing operations $ 29,055 $ 13,968 108.0 %
EPS (Diluted) $ 1.04 $ 0.67 55.2 %
NON-GAAP MEASURES
In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), this earnings release also contains non-GAAP financial measures. These measures provide useful information to investors.
VSE considers Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS (Diluted), EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Acquisition Adjusted EBITDA, TTM Adjusted EBITDA, TTM Acquisition Adjusted EBITDA, net debt, net leverage ratio, adjusted net leverage ratio, and free cash flow as non-GAAP financial measures and important indicators of performance and useful metrics for management and investors to evaluate VSE’s business' ongoing operating performance on a consistent basis across reporting periods. These non-GAAP financial measures, however, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted Net Income represents Net Income adjusted for acquisition-related costs, other discrete items, and related tax impact. Management believes these acquisition-related costs and other discrete items provide useful information about nonrecurring costs and benefits to help users meaningfully evaluate and compare the Company's quarterly and year-to-date performance against prior periods. Adjusted EPS (Diluted) is computed by dividing net income, adjusted for the discrete items as identified above and the related tax impacts, by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding. EBITDA represents net income before interest expense, income taxes, amortization of intangible assets and depreciation and other amortization. Management believes EBITDA provides useful information about the Company's operating performance as it isolates non-cash depreciation and amortization charges as well as interest expense and income taxes, which are non-operating items. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA (as defined above) adjusted for non-cash stock-based compensation and discrete items as identified above. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents estimated operating income before depreciation and amortization expenses as a percentage of revenue. Acquisition Adjusted EBITDA represents Adjusted EBITDA plus the pre-acquisition portion of EBITDA for the trailing twelve months. TTM Adjusted EBITDA represents Adjusted EBITDA as defined above for the trailing twelve months. TTM Acquisition Adjusted EBITDA includes pre-acquisition portion of EBITDA for the trailing twelve months that is not included in historical results. Net debt is defined as principal amount of debt less debt issuance costs and less cash and cash equivalents. Free cash flow represents operating cash flow less capital expenditures. Capital expenditures includes purchases of property and equipment. Net leverage ratio is calculated as net debt divided by TTM Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted Net leverage ratio is calculated as net debt divided by TTM Acquisition Adjusted EBITDA.
Additionally, VSE Adjusted EBITDA margin is presented as a forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure based solely on information available to VSE as of the date of this earnings release and may differ materially from VSE’s actual operating results as a result of developments that occur after the date of this earnings release. The determination of the amounts that are excluded from this non-GAAP financial measure is a matter of management judgment and depends upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense, income amounts or anticipated synergies recognized in a given period. VSE is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking VSE Adjusted EBITDA to net income because certain information regarding the Company’s provision for income taxes is not available, and management cannot reliably predict all of the necessary components of net income at this time without unreasonable effort or expense. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. The unavailable information could have significant impact on the Company’s future financial results. Reconciliations of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures and other information relating to these non-GAAP measures is included in the supplemental schedules attached. These non-GAAP measures, however, have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
