This was supported by the impact of higher average copper prices, improved manufacturing cost efficiencies across the segment and the absence of modernization, expansion and optimization (“MEO”) costs1 in the second quarter of 2026, compared to $7.3 million of MEO costs1 incurred during the second quarter of 2025.Revenue: $168.3 million, +16.5% YoY;Operating Income: $21.2 million, + 31.1% YoY; andAdjusted EBITDA: $31.4 million, +26.1% YoY.Strong second quarter performance was driven by record sales results for Xerxes, reflecting higher production output, improved pricing, and strong demand across fuel, water and critical infrastructure markets; and international project activity growth within Flexpipe.Capital Allocation and Balance SheetMattr remains committed to a flexible, “all of the above”, approach to capital allocation over the long-term. The Company seeks to maintain a conservative normal-course Total Net Debt-to-Adjusted EBITDA ratio (including leases) which preserves full strategic flexibility, while offering protection during periods of market instability.The Company’s Total Net Debt-to-Adjusted EBITDA ratio moved modestly higher in 2025 as a result of debt incurred to fund the accretive acquisition of AmerCable Incorporated (“AmerCable”). Consequently, the Company anticipates continuing to weight excess cash allocation towards debt reduction in the near-term.During the second quarter of 2026, on a net basis, the Company borrowed $11.5 million on its credit facility to fund seasonal working capital requirements.During the second quarter of 2026, 0.1 million shares were repurchased for cancellation under the NCIB.The outlook below reflects the Company’s current view, including potential significant external factors, as of August 12, 2026 (see “Section 4.1 Supplementary Business Information” of the MD&A for more details on the Company’s current understanding of External Factors):The Company delivered stronger-than-anticipated second quarter results, driven by strong commercial execution, favourable project timing and continued operational efficiency improvements. While market conditions and the geopolitical environment remain dynamic, the Company’s full year outlook has moved upwards compared to its first quarter update.Consequently, the Company currently expects: Revenue in 2026 will be higher than 2025 across both segments, with revenue in the second half of 2026 expected to be slightly above the first half of 2026;Adjusted EBITDA in 2026 will be higher than 2025 Adjusted EBITDA across both segments, with Adjusted EBITDA in the second half of 2026 expected to be similar to that of the first half of 2026; andCash provided by operating activities from Continuing Operations in 2026 will be modestly higher than 2025, as strengthening profitability is partially offset by necessary investments in working capital, including to de-risk critical raw material supply chains.The Company maintains total full year 2026 capital expenditures of $35 to $45 million, of which approximately $15 million is expected to be directed into maintenance needs.The Company currently expects Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2026 to be similar to that of the second quarter of 2026, while the fourth quarter is expected to exhibit normal seasonal slowing.1. MEO costs is a supplementary financial measure. Non-GAAP measures and supplementary financial measures do not have standardized meanings prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures provided by other companies. See “Section 5.0 – Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures” for further details and a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures. 3.0 CONFERENCE CALL AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATIONMattr will be hosting a Shareholder and Analyst Conference Call and Webcast on Thursday, August 13, 2026 at 9:00 AM ET, which will discuss the Company’s Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results.

These non-GAAP and other financial measures do not have standardized meanings under IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures provided by other companies. The Company discloses these measures because it believes that they provide further information and assist readers in understanding the results of the Company’s operations and financial position. These measures should not be considered in isolation or used in substitution for other measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The following are descriptions and reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures reported herein.EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is also a non-GAAP measure defined as EBITDA adjusted for items which do not impact day-to-day operations. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adding back to EBITDA the sum of impairments, costs associated with refinancing of long-term debt and credit facilities, (gain)/loss on sale of land and other, (gain)/loss on sale of operating unit and associates, acquisition costs including non-cash impact from inventory fair value adjustments, share-based incentive compensation (recovery) cost, non-recurring pension related costs (recoveries), foreign exchange (gains)/losses, and restructuring costs and other, net, and the impact of non-recurring transactions that are outside the Company’s normal course of business or day-to-day operations. The Company believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful supplemental measures that provide a meaningful indication of the Company’s results from principal business activities prior to the consideration of how these activities are financed or the tax impacts in various jurisdictions and for comparing its operating performance with the performance of other companies that have different financing, capital or tax structures. The Company presents Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of EBITDA that excludes the effect of transactions that fall outside the Company’s ordinary course of business or routine operations. Adjusted EBITDA is used by many analysts as one of several important analytical tools to evaluate financial performance and is a key metric in business valuations. It is also considered important by lenders to the Company and is included in the financial covenants of the Credit Facility. The most directly comparable financial measure to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA that is disclosed in the Company’s primary financial statements is Net Income (Loss) or Operating Income for segments.

(b) Impact in cost of goods sold resulting from the fair value adjustment to inventory acquired from AmerCable as part of the purchase price allocation. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue and is a non-GAAP measure. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA margin is a useful supplemental measure that provides meaningful assessment of the business results of the Company and its Operating Segments from principal business activities excluding the impact of transactions that are outside of the Company’s normal course of business.Operating margin is defined as operating income divided by revenue and is a non-GAAP measure. The Company believes that operating margin is a useful supplemental measure that provides meaningful assessment of the business performance of the Company and its Operating Segments. The Company uses this measure as a key indicator of financial performance, operating efficiency and cost control based on volume of business generated.Adjusted Net Income is a non-GAAP measure defined as Net Income adjusted for items which do not impact day-to-day operations. Adjusted Net Income is calculated by adding back to Net Income the after tax impact of the sum of impairments, costs associated with refinancing of long-term debt and credit facilities, gain on sale of land and other, (gain)/loss on sale of operating unit and associates, acquisition costs including non-cash impact from inventory fair value adjustments, share-based incentive compensation cost, non-recurring pension related costs (recoveries), foreign exchange (gains) losses, restructuring costs and other, net, and the impact of non-recurring transactions that are outside the Company’s normal course of business or day-to-day operations. The Company believes that Adjusted Net Income is a useful supplemental measure that provides a meaningful indication of the Company’s results from principal business activities and helps readers assess the Company’s underlying earnings performance on a normalized, ongoing basis. The most directly comparable financial measure to Adjusted Net Income that is disclosed in the Company’s primary financial statements is Net Income (Loss).Adjusted Earnings Per Share (“Adjusted EPS”)Adjusted EPS (basic) is a non-GAAP measure defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by the number of common shares outstanding. Adjusted EPS (diluted) is a non-GAAP measure defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by the number of common shares outstanding, further adjusted for potential dilutive impacts of outstanding securities which are convertible to common shares. The Company presents Adjusted EPS as a measure of Earnings Per Share that excludes the impact of transactions that are outside the Company’s normal course of business or day-to-day operations. Adjusted EPS indicates the amount of Adjusted Net Income the Company makes for each share of its stock and is used by many analysts as one of several important analytical tools to evaluate financial performance and is a key metric in business valuations. The most directly comparable financial measure to Adjusted EPS that is disclosed in the Company’s primary financial statements is Earnings (Loss) per Share.

Total Net Debt-to-Adjusted EBITDATotal Net Debt-to-Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure defined as the sum of long-term debt, current lease liabilities and long-term lease liabilities, less cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash), divided by the Consolidated (Continuing and Discontinued Operations) Adjusted EBITDA, as defined above, for the trailing twelve-month period. The Company believes Total Net Debt-to-Adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplementary measure to assess the borrowing capacity of the Company. Total Net Debt-to-Adjusted EBITDA is used by many analysts as one of several important analytical tools to evaluate how long a company would need to operate at its current level to pay off all its debt. It is also considered important by credit rating agencies to determine the probability of a company defaulting on its debt. It is important to note that this definition differs from the calculation used for financial covenant compliance as per the Company’s credit agreements.

MEO costs not eligible for capitalization are reported as selling, general and administrative expenses or as cost of goods sold and incurred in support of the Company’s certain specific, planned capital investments into high-return growth and efficiency improvement opportunities. These include the following:The replacement of the Company’s Rexdale facility in Toronto, Ontario and the expansion of its Connection Technologies segment’s North American manufacturing footprint through: a new heat-shrink tubing production site in Fairfield, Ohio; anda new wire and cable production site in Vaughan, Ontario.The addition of two new manufacturing facilities and the elimination of aging manufacturing facilities within the Composite Technologies network, namely: the shut-down and exit of aging production capabilities in the Xerxes FRP tank production site footprint;a new Xerxes FRP tank production site in Blythewood, South Carolina; anda new Flexpipe composite pipe production site in Rockwall, Texas along with the co-located HydroChain™ stormwater infiltration chamber production line.The Company considers these costs incremental to its normal operating base and would not have been incurred if these projects were not ongoing. The incurrence of MEO costs ceased at the end of the second quarter of 2025, and the Company has since discontinued reporting MEO costs in its disclosure other than in certain instances where MEO costs were incurred in historical comparative periods.6.0 ADDITIONAL INFORMATIONAdditional information relating to the Company, including its AIF, is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on the “Investor Center” page of the Company’s website at: https://investors.mattr.com/overview/default.aspx.Notice for the Postmedia NetworkThis website uses cookies to personalize your content (including ads), and allows us to analyze our traffic.
