NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

March 31, 2025

Table of Contents

(1) Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

Nature of Operations

VSE Corporation (collectively, with its consolidated subsidiaries), "VSE," or the "Company," is a leading provider of aviation aftermarket parts distribution and maintenance, repair and overhaul ("MRO") services for air transportation assets for commercial and government markets. VSE operates in one reportable segment aligned with the Company's operating segment: Aviation.

Basis of Presentation

The Company's accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to SEC Form 10-Q and Article 10 of SEC Regulation S-X. Therefore, such financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 ("2024 Form 10-K"). In the Company's opinion, all adjustments, including normal recurring items, considered necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods have been included in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.

In February 2024, VSE entered into two separate agreements to sell substantially all of the Federal and Defense segment assets. See Note (3) "Discontinued Operations" for further information. The consolidated financial statements present the results of operations for the Federal and Defense segment as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

In February 2025, VSE signed a definitive agreement to sell all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of its Fleet segment. See Note (3) "Discontinued Operations" and Note (13) "Subsequent Events" for further information. The consolidated financial statements present the results of operations for the Fleet segment as discontinued operations, and the related assets and liabilities as held-for-sale, for all periods presented.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period financial information to reflect discontinued operations classification. Unless otherwise noted, amounts and disclosures throughout these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements relate solely to continuing operations and exclude all discontinued operations.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates affecting the financial statements include fair value measurements, inventory provisions, collectability of receivables, valuation allowances on deferred tax assets, fair value of goodwill and other intangible assets and contingencies.

(2) Acquisitions

Turbine Controls, Inc. ("TCI")

On April 24, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of TCI for a total consideration of $ 122.4 million. The total consideration consisted of cash consideration of $ 112.4 million, net of $ 1.2 million cash acquired, and in-kind payment in the form of shares of the Company's common stock with a value equal to approximately $ 10.0 million. The purchase price of this acquisition was funded by borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility. TCI is a leading provider of aftermarket MRO support services for complex engine components, as well as engine and airframe accessories, across commercial and military applications. The acquisition presents an opportunity for VSE's Aviation segment to accelerate its MRO strategy, including expanding the Company's repair capability offerings and adding several new original equipment manufacturer ("OEM") relationships.

Table of Contents

The final purchase price allocation is as follows (in thousands):

Receivables $
Contract assets 16,193
Inventories 5,512
Prepaid expenses and other current assets 570
Other assets 214
Property and equipment, net 6,434
Intangible asset - customer related 59,000
Goodwill 40,201
Operating lease right-of-use assets 7,832
Total assets acquired 145,078
Accounts payable ( 9,764 )
Accrued expense and other current liabilities ( 5,624 )
Long-term operating lease obligations ( 7,339 )
Total liabilities assumed ( 22,727 )
Net assets acquired, excluding cash $ 122,351
Cash consideration, net of cash acquired $ 112,351
VSE common stock, at fair value 10,000
Total $ 122,351

Goodwill resulting from the acquisition of TCI reflects the strategic advantage of expanding the Company's MRO services to new customers. The value attributed to goodwill and customer relationships is deductible for income tax purposes. The estimated value attributed to the customer relationship intangible assets is being amortized on a straight-line basis using a useful life of 10 years.

The Company incurred $ 1.6 million of acquisition-related expenses related to the TCI acquisition during the three months ended March 31, 2024, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents the combined results of operations for TCI and VSE Corporation for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively. The unaudited consolidated pro forma results of operations are as follows (in thousands):

Three months ended March 31, — 2025 2024
Revenue $ 256,045 $ 187,054
Income from continuing operations $ 13,968 $ 4,900

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information presented above has been prepared from historical financial statements that have been adjusted to give effect to the acquisition of TCI as though it had occurred on January 1, 2023 and includes adjustments for intangible asset amortization; interest expense and debt issuance costs on long term debt; and acquisition and other transaction costs. The unaudited pro forma financial information is not intended to reflect the actual results of operations that would have occurred if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2023, nor is it indicative of future operating results.

Kellstrom Aerospace Group, Inc. ("Kellstrom Aerospace")

On December 3, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of Kellstrom Aerospace for a total consideration of approximately $ 188.9 million, subject to post-closing adjustments, consisting of cash consideration of $ 168.6 million, net of $ 10.6 million cash acquired, and in-kind payment in the form of shares of the Company's common stock with a value equal to approximately $ 20.3 million. The purchase price of this acquisition was funded by the Company's October 2024 underwritten public offering and borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility. Kellstrom Aerospace is a diversified global distributor and service provider supporting the commercial aerospace engine aftermarket. The acquisition provides an opportunity to improve the Company's position in the commercial aviation aftermarket by expanding product and capability offerings both domestically and internationally, including participation in aircraft engine maintenance events.

The purchase price for Kellstrom Aerospace was allocated on a preliminary basis, among assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, at fair value based on the best available information on the acquisition date, with the excess purchase price recorded as goodwill. The fair values of the non-financial assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, were determined based on preliminary estimates, assumptions, and other information compiled by management, including independent valuations utilizing established industry valuation techniques. The Company has not yet finalized the determination of the fair values allocated to various assets and liabilities, including, but not limited to, working capital and income taxes. Therefore, the allocation of the total consideration for the acquisition to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, is preliminary until the Company obtains final information regarding their fair values, which could potentially result in changes to the Kellstrom Aerospace opening balance sheet. Adjustments or changes to goodwill, assets or liabilities remain possible.

During the first quarter of 2025, the purchase price allocation was adjusted as a result of working capital and measurement period adjustments. The adjustments were recorded as a result of new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. Such adjustments resulted in a $ 4.7 million decrease to goodwill, driven by a $ 2.3 million fair value step up to operating lease right-of-use assets, a $ 2.2 million working capital settlement which reduced net purchase consideration, and a $ 0.2 million decrease in deferred tax liabilities.

The adjusted preliminary purchase price is as follows (in thousands):

Receivables $
Contract assets 2,925
Inventories 37,686
Prepaid expenses and other current assets 2,723
Property and equipment, net 10,301
Intangible asset - customer related 41,900
Goodwill 96,024
Operating lease right-of-use assets 14,141
Total assets acquired 233,079
Accounts payable ( 27,750 )
Accrued expense and other current liabilities ( 6,153 )
Deferred tax liabilities ( 10 )
Long-term operating lease obligations ( 10,300 )
Total liabilities assumed ( 44,213 )
Net assets acquired, excluding cash $ 188,866
Cash consideration, net of cash acquired $ 168,599
VSE common stock, at fair value 20,267
Total $ 188,866

Table of Contents

Goodwill resulting from the Kellstrom Aerospace acquisition reflects the strategic advantage of growing the Company's distribution and MRO capabilities in the commercial aerospace aftermarket. The value attributed to goodwill and customer relationships is not deductible for income tax purposes. The estimated value attributed to the customer relationship intangible assets is being amortized on a straight-line basis using a useful life of 8 years.

Acquisition-related expenses related to the Kellstrom Aerospace acquisition totaled $ 0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents the combined results of operations for Kellstrom Aerospace and VSE Corporation for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively. The unaudited consolidated pro forma results of operations are as follows (in thousands):

Three months ended March 31, — 2025 2024
Revenue $ 256,045 $ 200,758
Income from continuing operations (a) $ 14,559 $ 7,447

(a) The after-tax impact of acquisition expenses incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2025 were adjusted for in the current period.

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information presented above has been prepared from historical financial statements that have been adjusted to give effect to the acquisition of Kellstrom Aerospace as though it had occurred on January 1, 2023 and includes adjustments for intangible asset amortization; interest expense and debt issuance costs on long-term debt; and acquisition and other transaction costs. The unaudited pro forma financial information is not intended to reflect the actual results of operations that would have occurred if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2023, nor is it indicative of future operating results.

(3) Discontinued Operations

Sale of Federal and Defense Segment

In February 2024, VSE entered into two separate agreements to sell substantially all the Federal and Defense segment's operational assets ("FDS Sale") for a cash consideration of $ 42.9 million. The FDS Sale is consistent with the Company's long-term strategic growth strategy focused on higher margin and higher growth aftermarket parts distribution and MRO businesses. The Company recorded a pre-tax loss on the FDS Sale of $ 0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 related to a settlement of net working capital and a pre-tax loss of $ 12.7 million and transaction fees of $ 2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. All such losses and transaction fees are included in loss from discontinued operations, net of tax in the consolidated statements of operations.

Sale of Fleet Segment

In February 2025, VSE signed a definitive agreement to sell all issued and outstanding shares of common stock of its Fleet segment. As stated within Note (13) "Subsequent Events", the transaction was completed in April 2025 for a total consideration of up to $ 230 million (the “Fleet Sale”). This consideration is comprised of a $ 140 million cash payment at closing, a $ 25 million seller note, and an earn-out payment of up to $ 65 million, subject to the achievement of certain milestones. The Company recorded a pre-tax impairment loss on the Fleet assets held-for-sale of $ 33.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025, which is included in loss from discontinued operations, net of tax in the consolidated statements of operations.

Table of Contents

The Company was in compliance with required ratios and other terms and conditions under its credit agreement as of March 31, 2025.

Subsequent Event

On May 2, 2025, the Company entered into a new credit agreement, which provides for a $ 300 million term loan facility and a $ 400 million revolving credit facility, both maturing on May 2, 2030. Borrowings under the new credit agreement will accrue interest at either the term SOFR or ABR, plus in each case an applicable margin (based on the Company's Total Net Leverage Ratio). The new credit agreement replaces the Company's existing term loan and revolving credit facility. The proceeds of the term loan were utilized to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the new agreement and to repay, in full, amounts outstanding under the previous credit agreement.

Future required payments on the new term loan, to be paid in quarterly installments beginning in September 2025, are as follows: $ 3.8 million for the remainder of 2025, $ 7.5 million in 2026, $ 11.3 million in 2027, $ 20.6 million in 2028, $ 22.5 million in 2029, and $ 234.3 million in 2030. The Company has classified the current portion of long-term debt in its consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2025 based on the payment terms of the new credit agreement.

(6) Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company's derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges as of March 31, 2025 were as follows (in thousands):

Notional Amount Paid Fixed Rate Receive Variable Rate Settlement and Termination
Interest rate swaps $ 150,000 2.8 % 1-month term SOFR Monthly through October 31, 2027
Interest rate swaps $ 100,000 4.5 % 1-month term SOFR Monthly through July 31, 2026

The Company is party to fixed interest rate swap instruments that are designated and accounted for as cash flow hedges to manage risks associated with interest rate fluctuations on a portion of the Company's floating rate debt. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company reclassified $ 0.5 million from accumulated other comprehensive income to interest expense, net. The Company estimates that it will reclassify $ 1.1 million of unrealized gains from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings in the twelve months following March 31, 2025. See Note (11) "Fair Value Measurements" for the fair value of the interest rate swaps.

(7) Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Shares issued during the period are weighted for the portion of the period that they were outstanding. The calculation of diluted earnings per common share includes the dilutive effects for the assumed vesting of outstanding stock-based awards. The antidilutive common stock equivalents excluded from the diluted per share calculation are not material.

The weighted-average number of shares outstanding used to compute basic and diluted EPS were as follows:

2025 2024
Basic weighted average common shares outstanding 20,617,949 15,783,915
Effect of dilutive shares 122,370 156,035
Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding 20,740,319 15,939,950

(8) Commitments and Contingencies

Contingencies

The Company may have certain claims in the normal course of business, including legal proceedings, against it and against other parties. In the Company's opinion, the resolution of these claims will not have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

Further, from time-to-time, government agencies audit or investigate whether the Company's operations are being conducted in accordance with applicable contractual and regulatory requirements. Government audits or investigations of the Company, whether relating to government contracts or conducted for other reasons, could result in administrative, civil or criminal liabilities, including repayments, fines or penalties being imposed, which could lead to suspension or debarment from future government contracting. Government investigations often take years to complete and many result in no adverse action against the Company. The Company believes, based upon current information, that the outcome of any such government disputes, audits and investigations will not have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

(9) Business Segment

The sale of the Company's Fleet and Federal and Defense segments allows VSE to focus on a long-term strategic growth strategy focused on higher margin and higher growth aftermarket parts distribution and MRO businesses. Following the sale of the Fleet Federal and Defense segments, management of the Company's business operations is conducted under a single reportable operating segment: Aviation. The Company's Aviation segment provides aftermarket MRO and distribution services to commercial, business and general aviation, cargo, military and defense, and rotorcraft customers globally. Core services include parts distribution, MRO services including engine components and accessories, fuel controls, avionics, pneumatics, hydraulics, wheel and brake, and rotable exchange and supply chain services.

The operating segment reported below is the only segment for which separate financial information is available and for which segment results are evaluated regularly by the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, who is the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. As the Company operates under a single reportable operating segment, the CODM evaluates segment performance based on net income (loss) and considers budget-to-actual, sequential period and prior period variances on a monthly basis when making decisions about allocating capital and personnel. The expenses listed below are viewed as significant segment expenses as part of the CODM’s evaluation.

Net sales of the Company exclude intercompany sales as these activities are eliminated in consolidation. Corporate costs are primarily selling, general and administrative expenses not allocated to the Aviation segment.

(11) Fair Value Measurements

The following table summarizes the financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level they fall within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

Amounts Recorded at Fair Value Financial Statement Classification Fair Value Hierarchy Fair Value March 31, 2025 Fair Value December 31, 2024
Non-COLI assets held in Deferred Supplemental Compensation Plan (a) Other assets Level 1 $ 623 $ 629
Interest rate swaps Other assets Level 2 $ 2,156 $ 4,093
(a) Non-Company Owned Life Insurance ("COLI") assets held in the Company's deferred supplemental compensation plan consist of equity funds with fair value based on observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets in active markets and changes in fair value are recorded as selling, general and administrative expenses.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and amounts included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and accrued expenses and other current liabilities that meet the definition of a financial instrument approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturity. The carrying value of the Company's outstanding debt obligations approximates its fair value. The fair value of long-term debt is calculated using Level 2 inputs based on interest rates available for debt with terms and maturities similar to the Company's existing debt arrangements.

(12) Income Taxes

Income tax expense during interim periods is based on the estimated annual effective income tax rate plus any discrete items that are recorded in the period in which they occur. The Company's tax rate is affected by discrete items that may occur in any given year but may not be consistent from year to year.

The Company's effective tax rate for continuing operations was 15.7 % and 14.1 % for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The effective tax rate was higher for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to the same period of the prior year primarily due to a lower impact from the excess stock compensation deduction on the current year's rate.

(13) Subsequent Events

Sale of Fleet Segment

In April 2025, the Company completed the previously announced sale of its Fleet segment under the stock purchase agreement dated February 17, 2025. The total consideration is approximately $ 230 million, consisting of $ 140 million in cash, a $ 25 million seller note, and up to $ 65 million in a contingent earn-out payment, subject to certain post-closing and working capital adjustments. The Company used the initial cash proceeds to repay outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility.

Acquisition of Turbine Weld Industries, LLC

On May 1, 2025, the Company acquired Turbine Weld Industries, LLC, a specialized MRO provider of complex technical and proprietary engine components for business and general aviation ("BG&A") platforms. VSE acquired Turbine Weld Industries, LLC for a total consideration of approximately $ 50 million in cash, subject to working capital adjustments. The cash consideration was funded through additional borrowings under the revolving facility under the Company's credit agreement. It is not practical to disclose the preliminary purchase price allocation given the short period of time between the acquisition date and the issuance of these unaudited consolidated financial statements.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we incurred $ 0.5 million of acquisition-related expenses, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Credit Agreement Refinancing

On May 2, 2025, the Company entered into a new credit agreement, which provides for a $ 300 million term loan facility and a $ 400 million revolving credit facility, both maturing on May 2, 2030. See Note (5) "Debt" for further information.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Business Overview

VSE is a diversified aviation aftermarket products and services company providing maintenance, repair and overhaul ("MRO") services, parts distribution, logistics, supply chain management and consulting services for transportation assets to commercial and government markets.

Recent Developments

Sale of Fleet Segment

In April 2025, the Company completed the previously announced sale of its Fleet segment. See Note (3) "Discontinued Operations" and Note (13) "Subsequent Events" to the consolidated financial statements for further information.

Business Trends

During the first quarter of 2025, the Company's strong program execution of new and existing distribution awards, an expansion of product offerings and MRO capabilities, increased market activity, and contributions from recent acquisitions produced record results, with quarterly revenue reaching $256.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, representing a 58% increase year-over-year. Market growth and share gains have resulted in increased repair and distribution revenue of 76% and 49%, respectively, during the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the same period for the prior year. The Company's growth has been driven by several strategic initiatives, including executing on newly awarded distribution agreements, the introduction of new products and service capabilities to its portfolio, the launch of a new OEM licensed manufacturing program and the opening of a new distribution facility in Europe, all of which further strengthened the Company's position in the aviation aftermarket. Additionally, expanding VSE's partnerships with OEM's has provided the Company new opportunities, including access to new markets with an established customer base.

The Company believes the acquisition of TCI in April 2024 and the recent acquisition of Kellstrom Aerospace in December 2024 are strongly aligned with VSE's core business and increases VSE's exposure to the high-growth, higher-margin aviation commercial engine MRO and distribution aftermarkets.

Results of Operations

The following table summarizes the Company's consolidated results of operations (in thousands):

2025 2024 Change ($) Change (%)
Revenues $ 256,045 $ 162,383 $ 93,662 58 %
Costs and operating expenses 231,541 146,740 84,801 58 %
Operating income 24,504 15,643 8,861 57 %
Interest expense, net 7,939 9,190 (1,251) (14) %
Income from continuing operations before income taxes 16,565 6,453 10,112 157 %
Provision for income taxes 2,597 911 1,686 185 %
Net income from continuing operations $ 13,968 $ 5,542 $ 8,426 152 %

Revenues. Revenues increased for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the same period in the prior year primarily driven by contributions from the acquisitions of TCI and Kellstrom Aerospace, recently initiated distribution contract wins and improved demand for the Company's commercial aerospace products and services resulting from strong end market activity in global commercial air travel. Aviation distribution revenue increased $52.5 million, or 49%, and repair revenue increased $41.1 million, or 76%, for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the same period in the prior year.

Costs and Operating Expenses. Costs and operating expenses increased for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily driven by higher revenue. Included in costs and operating expenses is the amortization

Table of Contents

of intangible assets related to acquisitions, which was $6.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $3.4 million for the same period in the prior year.

Operating Income. Operating income increased for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the same period of the prior year, primarily driven by revenue growth and a favorable shift in sales mix and pricing, partially offset by increased amortization of intangible assets and an increase in corporate acquisition and integration costs incurred during the current period.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to a decrease in the Company's debt facility borrowings and a lower average interest rate on borrowings outstanding.

Provision for Income Taxes. The Company's effective tax rate for continued operations was 15.7% and 14.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company's tax rate is affected by discrete items that may occur in any given year but may not be consistent from year to year. Permanent differences such as foreign derived intangible income deduction, Section 162(m) limitation, capital gains tax treatment, state income taxes, certain federal and state tax credits and other items caused differences between the Company's statutory U.S. federal income tax rate and its effective tax rate. The higher effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was primarily driven by a lower impact from the excess stock compensation deduction on the current year's rate.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

The Company's internal sources of liquidity are primarily from operating activities, specifically from changes in the level of revenues and associated inventory, accounts receivable and accounts payable, and from profitability. Significant increases or decreases in revenues and inventory, accounts receivable and accounts payable can affect liquidity. Inventory and accounts payable levels can be affected by the timing of large opportunistic inventory purchases and by distributor agreement requirements. Accounts receivable and accounts payable levels can be affected by changes in the level of work performed and by the timing of large purchases. In addition to operating cash flows, other significant factors that affect the Company's overall management of liquidity include capital expenditures, and investments in the acquisition of businesses.

The Company's primary external financing sources are the capital markets and its credit agreement, which includes a term loan and a revolving facility, with an aggregate maximum borrowing capacity of the revolving facility of $350.0 million as of March 31, 2025. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, outstanding borrowings under the credit agreement increased $34.5 million. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had $270.0 million outstanding under the term loan, $197.0 million under the revolving facility, $0.8 million in outstanding letters of credit, and $152.2 million in unused commitments.

The Company believes its cash on hand, operating cash flows, and available credit under its credit agreement will provide sufficient liquidity for the Company's business operations as well as capital expenditures, dividends, and other capital requirements associated with its business operations over the next twelve months and thereafter for the foreseeable future.

New Credit Agreement

On May 2, 2025, the Company entered into a new credit agreement, which provides for a $300 million term loan facility and a $400 million revolving credit facility, both maturing on May 2, 2030. The new debt agreement provides a lower interest rate, greater flexibility and increased borrowing capacity. The new credit agreement replaces the Company's existing term loan and revolving credit facility, which were scheduled to mature in October 2026.

Borrowings under the new credit agreement will accrue interest at either the term SOFR rate plus the SOFR margin or ABR plus the ABR margin. The Company, at its option may select between one, three or six month Term SOFR Rates. The applicable SOFR margin or ABR margin will be determined based on the Company’s Total Net Leverage Ratio.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes the Company's cash flows (in thousands):

2025 2024
Net cash used in operating activities $ (46,632) $ (79,060)
Net cash (used) provided in investing activities (129) 33,408
Net cash provided by financing activities 28,239 48,291
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents $ (18,522) $ 2,639

Cash used in operating activities decreased $32.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to the same period of the prior year, primarily due to an increase in net income from continuing operations and improved receivable collections.

Cash used in investing activities was $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to cash provided from investing activities of $33.4 million for the same period of the prior year. The change is primarily driven by $41.1 million in proceeds from the sale of the Federal and Defense segment in the prior year, as compared to just $2.7 million in proceeds from the sale in the current year as a result of the settlement of final amounts. Refer to Note (3) "Discontinued Operations" to the consolidated financial statements for further information.

Cash provided by financing activities decreased $20.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to the same period of the prior year, primarily reflecting lower net borrowings of the Company's credit agreement during the current period.

The Company paid cash dividends totaling $2.1 million or $0.10 per share during the three months ending March 31, 2025. Pursuant to the terms of the credit agreement, payment of cash dividends are subject to annual restrictions. The Company has paid cash dividends annually since 1973.

Other Obligations and Commitments

Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

The Company's credit agreement provides available borrowing at variable interest rates. The Company's interest expense is impacted by the overall global economic and interest rate environment. Accordingly, future interest rate changes could potentially put the Company at risk for a material adverse impact on future earnings and cash flows. To mitigate this risk, the Company has employed interest rate hedges to fix rates on a portion of its borrowings for specified periods. For additional information related to the Company's debt and interest rate swaps, see Note (5) and Note (6), respectively, to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Table of Contents

The Company believes there have been no material changes in market risks from those discussed in the Company's 2024 Form 10-K.

Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and Judgments

The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP"), which requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions. Certain critical accounting policies affect the more significant accounts, particularly those that involve judgments, estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements, including revenue recognition, inventory valuation, business combinations, goodwill and intangible assets, and income taxes. If any of these estimates, assumptions or judgments prove to be incorrect, the Company's reported results could be materially affected. Actual results may differ significantly from the Company's estimates under different assumptions or conditions. See "Item 7. Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and Note (1) "Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in the Company's 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussions of the Company's significant accounting policies and estimates. There have been no significant changes in the Company's critical accounting estimates during the three months ended March 31, 2025, from those disclosed in the Company's 2024 Form 10-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management of the Company has evaluated, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")). Based on this evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2025, disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information the Company is required to disclose in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In connection with the acquisition of TCI and Kellstrom Aerospace, certain areas of the Company's internal control over financial reporting changed. These areas are primarily related to integrating corporate functions such as entity level controls and certain financial reporting controls. Certain control structure items remain in operation at TCI and Kellstrom Aerospace, primarily related to information technology, inventory management, human resources, processing and billing of revenues, and collection of those revenues. The control structures at TCI and Kellstrom Aerospace have been modified to appropriately oversee and incorporate these activities into the overall control structure. The Company will continue to evaluate the need for additional internal controls over financial reporting.

There have been no additional changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the quarterly period covered by this report that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

U.S. and foreign trade policies, including the assessment of tariffs and other impositions on imported goods, may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business.

The U.S. and certain foreign countries have recently announced new or increased tariffs on imported goods, and additional tariffs or increases in tariffs could be assessed in the future. If any such tariffs were to increase the Company’s costs of obtaining materials or products from suppliers or increase the costs of selling the Company’s products to its customers, and the Company were unable to mitigate the impacts of any such increased costs, it could have a material adverse impact on its business and results of operations.

Other than as disclosed above in this section, there have been no material changes to the previously disclosed risk factors in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 ("2024 Form 10-K”). The risk factors disclosed in the Company's 2024 Form 10-K should be considered together with information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, and under "Forward-Looking Statements" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."
