PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Enviri Corporation (NYSE: NVRI) (the "Company") today reported third quarter 2025 results. Revenues in the third quarter of 2025 totaled $575 million, and on a U.S. GAAP ("GAAP") basis, the consolidated loss from continuing operations was $20 million. Adjusted EBITDA was $74 million in the third quarter of 2025.

On a GAAP basis, the third quarter of 2025 diluted loss per share from continuing operations was $0.26, including strategic expenses and restructuring costs as well as other unusual items. The adjusted diluted loss per share from continuing operations in the third quarter of 2025 was $0.08. These figures compare with a third quarter of 2024 GAAP diluted loss per share from continuing operations of $0.15, which included the impact of a business divestiture, certain Harsco Rail contract adjustments and other unusual items, and adjusted diluted loss per share from continuing operations of $0.01.

“Clean Earth delivered another record quarter with strong cash flow generation, driven by higher volumes and services pricing, ” said Enviri Chairman and CEO Nick Grasberger. “On a consolidated basis, our results were impacted primarily by Harsco Rail, due to weak demand. Harsco Environmental delivered a stronger quarter sequentially, although its results were affected by higher operating costs and project delays. Given the mixed performance in the quarter, we’ve lowered our full year outlook.”

“Despite these near-term pressures, our businesses remain well positioned within their respective markets and are poised to see earnings and cash flow growth as end-markets strengthen and strategic improvement initiatives are realized. We continue to make progress on our strategic alternatives process aimed at unlocking the inherent value of our portfolio, and are optimistic that we will conclude the process by the end of the year.”

Clean Earth and Harsco Rail realized an increase in revenues compared with the third quarter of 2024, while revenues for Harsco Environmental were lower year-on-year, as anticipated.

Third Quarter Business Review

Harsco Environmental

Harsco Environmental revenues totaled $261 million in the third quarter of 2025, a decrease compared with the prior-year quarter. The year-over-year revenue change is attributable to business divestitures, lower eco-product sales, and site closures and contract exits. The segment's GAAP operating income was $13 million and Adjusted EBITDA totaled $44 million in the third quarter of 2025. These figures compare with GAAP operating income of $33 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $53 million in the prior-year period. The year-on-year change in adjusted earnings reflects the above-mentioned factors. As a result, Harsco Environmental's Adjusted EBITDA margin was 17.0% in the third quarter of 2025 versus 19.0% in the comparable quarter of 2024.

Clean Earth

Clean Earth revenues totaled $250 million in the third quarter of 2025, a 6% increase over the prior-year quarter due to higher volumes and services pricing. The segment's GAAP operating income was $27 million and Adjusted EBITDA was $43 million in the third quarter of 2025. These figures compare with GAAP operating income of $27 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $42 million in the prior-year period. The year-on-year improvement in adjusted earnings is attributable to the above-mentioned factors. As a result, Clean Earth's Adjusted EBITDA margin was 17.3% in the third quarter of 2025 versus 17.5% in the comparable quarter of 2024.

Harsco Rail

Harsco Rail revenues totaled $64 million in the third quarter of 2025, a 10% increase over the prior-year quarter. This change reflects higher aftermarket parts volumes and certain contract loss adjustments in the prior-year quarter, partially offset by lower equipment and contracted services sales. The segment's GAAP operating loss was $9 million and Adjusted EBITDA loss was $4 million in the third quarter of 2025. These figures compare with a GAAP operating loss of $14 million and an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $2 million in the prior-year period. The year-on-year change in adjusted earnings is attributable to the above-mentioned factors as well as higher manufacturing costs and a less favorable business mix.

Cash Flow
Net cash provided by operating activities was $34 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared with $1 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted free cash flow was $6 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared with $(34) million in the prior-year period. The change in adjusted free cash flow compared with the prior-year quarter is attributable to lower capital spending and changes in working capital.

2025 Outlook
The Company has revised its outlook for Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow with the expectation that the volume and other headwinds experienced in the third-quarter for Harsco Rail and Harsco Environmental will persist through year-end. Additionally, free cash flow guidance is impacted by the timing of certain working capital items including previously anticipated milestone payments in Harsco Rail.

Key business drivers for each segment as well as other 2025 guidance details are below.

Harsco Environmental Adjusted EBITDA is projected to be below prior-year results. Currency impacts, business divestitures, exited contracts and a less favorable services mix are expected to be partially offset by improvement initiatives and new contracts.

Clean Earth Adjusted EBITDA is expected to increase versus 2024 as a result of volume growth, efficiency initiatives and net higher pricing, offsetting the impact of investments and certain items not repeating in 2025 (such as the benefit in 2024 from the reduction in bad debt reserves).

Harsco Rail Adjusted EBITDA is expected to decline versus 2024 as a result of lower shipments, a less favorable business mix and higher manufacturing costs.

Corporate spending is anticipated to increase when compared with 2024 mainly as a result of incentive compensation including the impact of non-cash equity compensation.

Credit Agreement
The Company recently (November 2025) successfully amended its Credit Agreement to provide additional financial and strategic flexibility. The changes to the Credit Agreement include revisions to its net leverage ratio, which now ends 2025 at 5.25x and 2026 at 5.00x, before stepping down to 4.00x in the second quarter of 2027. The amendment also now allows the Company to sell Clean Earth and provides a capital structure framework for the surviving company if this occurs. Further details can be found in the Company's Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2025.

Non-GAAP Measures
Measurements of financial performance not calculated in accordance with GAAP should be considered as supplements to, and not substitutes for, performance measurements calculated or derived in accordance with GAAP. Any such measures are not necessarily comparable to other similarly-titled measurements employed by other companies. The most comparable GAAP measures are included within the definitions below and reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included at the end of this press release.

Adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations: Adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations is a non-GAAP financial measure and consists of diluted earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations adjusted for unusual items and acquisition-related intangible asset amortization expense. It is important to note that such intangible assets contribute to revenue generation and that intangible asset amortization related to past acquisitions will recur in future periods until such intangible assets have been fully amortized. The Company’s management believes Adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations is useful to investors because it provides an overall understanding of the Company’s historical and future prospects. Exclusion of unusual items permits evaluation and comparison of results for the Company’s core business operations, and it is on this basis that management internally assesses the Company’s performance. Exclusion of acquisition-related intangible asset amortization expense, the amount of which can vary by the timing, size and nature of the Company’s acquisitions, facilitates more consistent internal comparisons of operating results over time between the Company’s newly acquired and long-held businesses, and comparisons with both acquisitive and non-acquisitive peer companies.

Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and consists of income (loss) from continuing operations adjusted to add back income tax expense; equity income of unconsolidated entities, net; net interest expense; defined benefit pension income (expense); facility fees and debt-related income (expense); and depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs); and excludes unusual items. Segment Adjusted EBITDA consists of operating income from continuing operations adjusted to exclude unusual items and add back depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs). The sum of the Segments’ Adjusted EBITDA and Corporate Adjusted EBITDA equals consolidated Adjusted EBITDA. The Company‘s management believes Adjusted EBITDA is meaningful to investors because management reviews Adjusted EBITDA in assessing and evaluating performance.

Adjusted free cash flow: Adjusted free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure and consists of net cash provided (used) by operating activities less capital expenditures and expenditures for intangible assets; and plus capital expenditures for strategic ventures, total proceeds from sales of assets and certain transaction-related / debt-refinancing expenditures. The Company's management believes that Adjusted free cash flow is important to management and useful to investors as a supplemental measure as it indicates the cash flow available for working capital needs, repay debt obligations, invest in future growth through new business development activities, conduct strategic acquisitions or other uses of cash. It is important to note that Adjusted free cash flow does not represent the total residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures since other non-discretionary expenditures, such as mandatory debt service requirements and settlements of foreign currency forward exchange contracts, are not deducted from this measure. This presentation provides a basis for comparison of ongoing operations and prospects.
