Nirav Patel, Mastech Digital's President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "Our third quarter results were impacted by ongoing macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainties, which affected client activity and decision-making across the enterprise. Amid ongoing market challenges, we remain focused on controlling what we can and positioning the Company for long-term growth. To that end, we have launched EDGE – Efficiencies Driving Growth and Expansion – a structured transformation initiative aimed at optimizing our organization and operating model. EDGE focuses on driving higher revenue quality, process simplification and automation, and disciplined spend management to unlock capacity for reinvestment in strategic growth areas. We have seen these actions already yield improved operational efficiency and sharper resource alignment. By channeling these gains into capability building and market expansion, we believe EDGE will strengthen our competitive position and fuel sustainable value creation. We are pleased with our positive progress, and we look forward to providing further updates in the days ahead.

Our IT Staffing Services segment revenues declined 4.4% year-over-year. Our continued focus on disciplined pricing and emphasis on higher-value engagements delivered Company-record gross margins of 24.8% and a Company all-time high average bill rate of $86.60, despite our billable consultant headcount reducing by 11.6% year-over-year. While overall client activity continues to trend below prior-year levels, consistent with what we are seeing in broader market conditions, we believe our margin performance underscores the effectiveness of our execution strategy and operational rigor in a measured demand environment.

Our Data and Analytics Services segment revenues declined 15.8% year-over-year, reflecting a challenging comparison against strong results in the second half of 2024. New bookings activity during the quarter remained subdued at $6.1 million. While near-term visibility remains limited, we continue to believe that long-term demand drivers underpinning this segment remain firmly intact. Mastech Digital is focused on aligning its delivery capabilities and go-to-market approach to capture growth opportunities as client spending patterns normalize."

Commenting on the Company's financial position, Kannan Sugantharaman, Mastech Digital's Chief Financial and Operations Officer, stated, "On September 30, 2025, we had $32.7 million of cash balances on hand, no bank debt, and borrowing availability of $20.8 million under our revolving credit facility. Our Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) measurement stood at 55-days on September 30, 2025, which is well within our targeted range."

Use of Non-GAAP Measures:

This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures to supplement our financial results presented on a GAAP basis. The presentation of these financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Investors are cautioned that there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures as an analytical tool. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to their comparable GAAP measures are included in the attached financial tables.

We believe that providing non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share offers investors useful supplemental information about the financial performance of our business, enables comparison of financial results between periods where certain items may vary independent of business performance, and allows for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in operating our business. Additionally, management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating the Company's performance.

Specifically, the non-GAAP financial measures contained herein exclude the following expense items:

Amortization of acquired intangible assets: We amortize intangible assets acquired in connection with our June 2015 acquisition of Hudson IT, our July 2017 acquisition of the services division of InfoTrellis, Inc. and our October 2020 acquisition of AmberLeaf Partners. We exclude these amortization expenses in our non-GAAP financial measures because we believe it allows investors to make more meaningful comparisons between our operating results and those of other companies within our industry and facilitates a helpful comparison of our results with other periods.

Stock-based compensation expenses: We incur material recurring expenses related to non-cash, stock-based compensation. We exclude these expenses from our non-GAAP financial measures because we believe that it provides investors with meaningful supplemental information regarding operational performance. In particular, because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions, and the variety of award types that companies can use under ASC 718, we believe that providing non-GAAP financial measures that exclude these expenses allows investors to make more meaningful comparisons between our operating results and those of other companies within our industry and facilitate comparisons of our results with other periods.

Severance charges: From time to time, we incur severance expenses related to the termination by the Company of leadership and other key personnel. During the third quarter of 2025, we recorded severance charges associated with strategic initiatives we undertook to better align our organizational structure with our long-term growth objectives. During the third quarter of 2025, the Company recognized $0.3 million of severance expense within cost of goods sold. As this amount was not allocated to the reportable segments, the non-allocated charge contributed to a gross margin variance between the supplemental segment presentation and the consolidated financial results. We believe that providing non-GAAP financial measures that exclude these expenses allows investors to make more meaningful comparisons between our operating results and those of other companies within our industry and facilitates comparison of our results with other periods.

Finance and accounting transition expense: During the first quarter of 2025, the Company's Board of Directors made the decision to implement a long-term cost-cutting initiative to transition the Company's finance and accounting functions to India. During 2025, the Company expects to incur additional costs related to the duplication of resources and travel expenses during the training and knowledge transfer process. Additionally, the Company expects to pay severance expense related to this initiative. The Company estimates total transition and severance expenses to approximate $2.0 million. Post-transition cost savings are expected to approximate $1.2 million per annum. We believe that providing non-GAAP financial measures that exclude these expenses allows investors to make more meaningful comparisons between our operating results and those of other companies within our industry and facilitates comparison of our results with other periods.
