"Operational efforts continue to gain traction, manufacturing and procurement efforts are driving enhanced efficiencies and increases were achieved in net income, EBITDA and earnings per share.

On July 1, 2025, we completed the acquisition of TerraSource, an adjacent manufacturer of materials processing equipment and related aftermarket parts. TerraSource has annual revenues in excess of $150 million, with over 60% of revenues from aftermarket parts and services. We are excited to welcome TerraSource employees to the Astec team."

Brian Harris, chief financialoOfficer, commented, "We were pleased to generate net income of $16.7 million and an adjusted EBITDA of $33.7 million in the second quarter, compared to a $14.0 million net loss and $27.6 million of adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter last year, along with strong free cash flows. We are updating the lower end of our full year guidance from $105 million to $110 million on our core business while keeping the top end of the range unchanged at $125 million. We are also increasing our guidance to reflect the expected second half contributions by TerraSource. We expect TerraSource to provide adjusted EBITDA in the $13 million to $17 million range, bringing our consolidated guidance expectations for adjusted EBITDA to a range of $123 million to $142 million."
