News Release

CMCO's Growth and Integration Momentum Continues in Q2 FY27; Increases Full Year Guidance

•Kito Crosby integration remains on track, with synergy realization ahead of plan

•Net sales growth of 107% Y/Y driven by the Kito Crosby Acquisition with solid growth at both Legacy CMCO1 and Kito Crosby

•Book-to-bill of 1.0x reflects strong conversion of orders to revenue and positions CMCO for continued progress in 2H FY27

•Increases FY27 guidance for Net sales, Adjusted EBITDA2 and Adjusted EPS2

CHARLOTTE, NC, November 3, 2026 - Columbus McKinnon Corporation (Nasdaq: CMCO) ("CMCO" or the "Company"), today announced financial results for its fiscal year 2027 second quarter, which ended September 30, 2026.

The Company delivered net sales growth of 107% and order growth of 122% year-over-year, both driven by the acquisition of Kito Crosby Limited ("Kito Crosby"), which closed on February 3, 2026 (the "Kito Crosby Acquisition"), coupled with strong performance across the Legacy CMCO1 and Kito Crosby platforms.

“Building on record orders and sales in the first quarter, our team delivered strong second quarter performance that exceeded expectations. Sequential revenue growth was supported by sustained strength in the Americas and bolstered by stronger than anticipated demand in both Asia and EMEA," said David J. Wilson, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our continued focus on improving operational execution and customer experience led to increased demand from both project and short-cycle business. Early success and strong customer response to our combined portfolio reinforce our confidence in the growth opportunities created by bringing CMCO and Kito Crosby together.”

Second Quarter Fiscal 2027 Highlights (compared with prior-year period, except where otherwise noted)

•Net sales of $539.3 million increased 107%

•Orders of $562.6 million increased 122%; Book-to-bill of 1.0x

•Net loss attributable to the Company of $25.5 million, or $0.76 per diluted share reflects $12.5 million of acquisition and integration related expenses

•Adjusted Net Income2 of $31.1 million increased 74% and Adjusted EPS2,4 of $0.61 declined $0.01 largely due to a higher share count and increased interest expense

•Adjusted EBITDA2 of $111.2 million and Adjusted EBITDA Margin2 of 20.6%, up 520 basis points

“Our integration of Kito Crosby is progressing well, supported by agile execution and strong collaboration across the combined organization. With our initial integration priorities firmly underway, we are sharpening our focus on the longer-term initiatives that will unlock the potential of the combined business," continued Wilson. "Our teams are working effectively as one, and the meaningful progress we are making provides higher confidence in achieving our targeted value creation objectives."

Fiscal Year 2027 Guidance

"Our increased full-year outlook reflects strong first-half orders and financial performance, as well as confidence in the execution of our strategic priorities and our ability to sustain this momentum through the second half of fiscal 2027," said John Linker, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.

Based on year-to-date performance and its outlook, the Company is increasing its guidance for fiscal 2027, ending March 31, 2027 as follows:

Metric Updated FY27 Outlook Prior FY27 Outlook

Net sales $2.13 billion to $2.17 billion $2.09 billion to $2.15 billion

Adjusted EBITDA5

$425 million to $440 million $405 million to $420 million

Adjusted EPS5

$2.00 to $2.15 $1.90 to $2.10

Fiscal 2027 guidance reflects updated assumptions, based on final purchase price accounting linked to the Kito Crosby Acquisition, of:

Metric Updated FY27 Outlook Prior FY27 Outlook

Interest expense $185 million to $190 million $185 million to $190 million

Amortization expense $130 million to $135 million $135 million to $140 million

Depreciation expense $80 million to $85 million $75 million to $80 million

Teleconference and Webcast

The Company will host a conference call today at 8:00 AM Eastern Time to discuss the Company's financial results and strategy. The conference call, earnings release and earnings presentation will be accessible through live webcast on the Company's investor relations website at investors.cmco.com. A replay of the webcast will also be archived on the Company's investor relations website through November 10, 2026.

______________________

1 "Legacy CMCO" is defined as reported Columbus McKinnon adjusting for the removal of the Divestiture and the Kito Crosby Acquisition in all comparable periods.

2 Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EPS, Legacy CMCO Net Sales Growth, Free Cash Flow, and Credit Agreement Net Leverage Ratio are non-GAAP financial measures. See accompanying discussion and reconciliation tables provided in this release for reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the closest corresponding GAAP financial measures.

3 As part of the Kito Crosby Acquisition, the Company was required to divest its U.S. power chain hoist (other than with respect to Little Mule products) and chain manufacturing operations, which closed on March 4, 2026 (the "Divestiture").

4 Adjusted EPS excludes, among other adjustments, amortization of intangible assets. The Company believes this better represents its inherent earnings power and cash generation capability.

5 The Company has not reconciled Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EPS and Adjusted Diluted Shares Outstanding guidance for fiscal 2027 to the most comparable GAAP outlook because it is not possible to do so without unreasonable efforts due to the uncertainty and potential variability of reconciling items, which are dependent on future events and often outside of management’s control and which could be significant. Because such items cannot be reasonably predicted with the level of precision required, we are unable to provide guidance for the comparable GAAP financial measures. Forward-looking guidance regarding Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS are made in a manner consistent with previous filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

1 EBITDA is normalized to include a full year of performance from Kito Crosby and Divestiture and assumes all cost synergies are achieved in fiscal 2026.

2 For its annual goodwill impairment test for fiscal 2026, the Company elected to bypass the qualitative assessment and performed a quantitative impairment test for its reporting units, comparing the carrying amount of each reporting unit with its estimated fair value. While each of the individual reporting units initially had fair values in excess of their book value, the sustained reduction in the Company's stock price and market capitalization resulted in the aggregate equity value of the combined company exceeding its market capitalization at its annual measurement date. On this basis, the Company reevaluated the fair value of each of its reporting units and this resulted in a partial impairment of the goodwill for the Precision Conveyance reporting unit in the amount of $200,000,000.

3 The Company's Credit Agreement definition of Net Debt excludes any debt related to its AR securitization facility given that borrowings under the AR securitization facility support the Company's short term working capital needs.

Credit Agreement Net Debt is defined in the Company's Credit Agreement as total debt plus standby letters of credit, net of cash and cash equivalents and AR securitization facility obligations. Credit Agreement Net Leverage Ratio is defined as Credit Agreement Net Debt divided by the Credit Agreement Trailing Twelve Month Adjusted EBITDA. Credit Agreement Trailing Twelve Month Adjusted EBITDA is defined in the Company's Credit Agreement as net income (loss) adjusted for interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, and other adjustments. Credit Agreement Net Debt, Credit Agreement Net Leverage Ratio and Credit Agreement Trailing Twelve Month Adjusted EBITDA are not measures determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable with the measures as used by other companies.

You should not consider the presentation of this additional information in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures are noted and reconciliations of comparable historical GAAP measures with historical non-GAAP financial measures can be found in tables either included in the Supplemental Information portion of this presentation or our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

FY27 Guidance 11 Current Prior Net Sales $2.13 – $2.17 billion $2.09 – $2.15 billion Adjusted EBITDA1 $425 – $440 million $405 – $420 million Adjusted EPS1 $2.00 – $2.15 $1.90 – $2.10 1. The Company has not reconciled its Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EPS or Adjusted Diluted Shares Outstanding guidance for fiscal 2027 to the most comparable GAAP outlook because it is not possible to do so without unreasonable efforts due to the uncertainty and potential variability of reconciling items, which are dependent on future events and often outside of management’s control and which could be significant. Because such items cannot be reasonably predicted with the level of precision required, we are unable to provide guidance for the comparable GAAP financial measures. Forward-looking guidance regarding Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EPS and Adjusted Diluted Shares Outstanding are made in a manner consistent with the relevant definitions and assumptions noted herein Fiscal 2027 guidance assumes approximately: Interest Expense $185 – $190 million $185 – $190 million Amortization Expense $130 – $135 million $135 – $140 million Depreciation Expense $80 – $85 million $75 – $80 million Capital Expenditures $45 – $55 million $50 – $60 million Normalized Effective Tax Rate, as used in the calculation of Adjusted EPS 25% 25% Adjusted Diluted Shares Outstanding 52 million 52 million

SUPPLEMENT

Non-GAAP Financial Measures The following information provides definitions and reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this presentation to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The Company has provided this non-GAAP financial information, which is not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP, as information supplemental and in addition to the financial measures presented in this presentation that are calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Such non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for or alternative to, and should be considered in conjunction with, the GAAP financial measures presented in this presentation. The non-GAAP financial measures in this presentation may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies.  Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin  Adjusted RSG&A and Adjusted RSG&A Margin  Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS  Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin  Legacy CMCO Net Sales and Legacy CMCO Net Sales Growth  Pro Forma Net Sales and Pro Forma Net Sales Growth  Free Cash Flow  Credit Agreement Net Leverage Ratio, Credit Agreement Net Debt, Credit Agreement Adjusted EBITDA and Credit Agreement Adjusted EBITDA Margin

Non-GAAP Measures: Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin

Non-GAAP Measures: Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS

Non-GAAP Measures: Adjusted RSG&A and Adjusted RSG&A Margin

Non-GAAP Measures: Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

Non-GAAP Measures: Legacy CMCO Net Sales

Non-GAAP Measures: Pro Forma Net Sales

Non-GAAP Measures: Free Cash Flow (FCF)

Non-GAAP Financial Measure: Credit Agreement Net Leverage Ratio Credit Agreement Net Debt is defined in the Company's Credit Agreement as total debt plus standby letters of credit, net of cash and cash equivalents and AR securitization facility obligations. Credit Agreement Net Leverage Ratio is defined as Credit Agreement Net Debt divided by the Credit Agreement Trailing Twelve Month Adjusted EBITDA. Credit Agreement Trailing Twelve Month Adjusted EBITDA is defined in the Company's Credit Agreement as net income (loss) adjusted for interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, and other adjustments. Credit Agreement Net Debt, Credit Agreement Net Leverage Ratio and Credit Agreement Trailing Twelve Month Adjusted EBITDA are not measures determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable with the measures as used by other companies. Nevertheless, the Company believes that providing non-GAAP financial measures, such as Credit Agreement Net Debt, Credit Agreement Net Leverage Ratio and Credit Agreement Trailing Twelve Month Adjusted EBITDA are important for investors and other readers of the Company’s financial statements. 1 EBITDA is normalized to include a full year of performance from Kito Crosby and Divestiture and assumes all cost synergies are achieved in fiscal 2026. 2 For its annual goodwill impairment test for fiscal 2026, the Company elected to bypass the qualitative assessment and performed a quantitative impairment test for its reporting units, comparing the carrying amount of each reporting unit with its estimated fair value. While each of the individual reporting units initially had fair values in excess of their book value, the sustained reduction in the Company's stock price and market capitalization resulted in the aggregate equity value of the combined company exceeding its market capitalization at its annual measurement date. On this basis, the Company reevaluated the fair value of each of its reporting units and this resulted in a partial impairment of the goodwill for the Precision Conveyance reporting unit in the amount of $200,000,000. 3 The Company's Credit Agreement definition of Net Debt excludes any debt related to its AR securitization facility given that borrowings under the AR securitization facility support the Company's short term working capital needs.
