- Delivered revenue of $313.9 million, up 1.5% year-over-year (organic growth of 2.0%), driven by strong callout work -

- Completed merger with NV5, positioning the Company as a market-leading provider of TICC and engineering services -

TOMBALL, Texas, August 14, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Acuren Corporation (NYSE: TIC) ("Acuren" or the "Company"), a leading provider of tech-enabled Testing, Inspection, Certification, and Compliance (TICC) services and critical asset integrity solutions, today reported its financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

On August 4, 2025, Acuren completed its transformational merger with NV5 Global, Inc. ("NV5"), creating a market-leading $2 billion TICC and engineering services company. As the transaction closed after the end of the reporting period, the financial results of NV5 are not included in Acuren’s second quarter results.

Tal Pizzey, CEO of Acuren stated: "We delivered year-over-year top line growth and stable adjusted gross margins, demonstrating the strength and resilience of our business model and the mission-critical nature of our services. Strong performance in callout work highlights our diversified revenue streams and operational agility, enabling us to deliver steady results across varied market conditions. We also expanded our share of wallet and service offerings with existing customers, further strengthening our platform and supporting growth across key end markets.

"The successful completion of our merger with NV5 marks a transformative milestone for Acuren, enabling us to offer a powerful value proposition by combining our expertise in industrial inspection and mitigation with NV5’s geospatial and engineering capabilities across the full asset lifecycle. This strategic combination positions us to drive sustainable growth and deliver exceptional value to our customers, employees, and investors."

The presentation of our operating results reflects the Company’s acquisition of ASP Acuren Holdings, Inc. on July 30, 2024. The period from April 1, 2025 through June 30, 2025, is referred to as the "Successor" period and the period from April 1, 2024 through June 30, 2024 is referred to as the "Predecessor" period.

Second Quarter 2025 Highlights

  • Successor revenue of $313.9 million compared to Predecessor revenue of $309.3 million in the prior year period, reflecting organic growth of 2.0% in Q2 and 4.6% in the first half of 2025. Growth was driven by new customer wins, increased penetration with existing customers, and strong callout volumes.

  • Successor net loss of $0.2 million compared to Predecessor net loss of $5.5 million in the prior year period. The year-over-year improvement reflects the absence of prior-year seller-related stock compensation and transaction expenses, as well as lower interest expense, partially offset by current-period business transformation costs.

  • Successor Adjusted EBITDA of $54.6 million compared to Predecessor Adjusted EBITDA of $59.1 million in the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 17.4% compared to 19.1% in the prior year period. The year-over-year margin change reflects a more normalized business mix and the addition of incremental public company costs.

Robert A.E. Franklin, Executive Chairman of Acuren commented: "Acuren delivered a strong second quarter, reflecting disciplined execution, robust customer engagement, and continued momentum across our core service lines. The team’s unwavering focus on operational excellence and value delivery drove another period of profitable growth and sustained margin performance.

"The successful combination with NV5 has established a differentiated market leader with significant operational and financial advantages. As we begin integrating our complementary service portfolios and expanding our geographic reach, we see substantial opportunities for cross-selling and further optimization of our corporate structure and cost base. With our strengthened recurring revenue foundation and diverse exposure across infrastructure, energy, utilities, and government sectors, we are focused on generating robust free cash flow and on achieving optimal capital structure metrics. This transaction has delivered the successful union of two organizations committed to technical excellence and innovation, establishing our foundation for accelerated growth and enhanced stakeholder value creation."

Capital Resources and Liquidity

As of June 30, 2025, the Company had total liquidity of $199.2 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $130.1 million plus undrawn capacity on the Company’s $75.0 million revolving credit facility. Total term loan debt was $751.3 million, net of unamortized debt issuance costs at quarter end. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company’s weighted-average basic and diluted shares of common stock outstanding were 121,476,215 and 122,476,215, respectively.

Merger with NV5

On August 4, 2025, Acuren completed its previously announced acquisition of NV5, a leading provider of tech-enabled engineering, testing, inspection, and consulting solutions for the built environment. The total transaction value was approximately $1.7 billion, including full repayment of NV5’s outstanding debt and the issuance of approximately 79 million shares of Acuren common stock to NV5 shareholders at close. Following the close of the transaction, the Company’s common stock outstanding was 200,589,758 as of August 12, 2025.

In connection with the transaction, Acuren amended its existing credit facility to add $875.0 million of new fungible term loan debt, increasing total first lien term loans outstanding to $1.6 billion, and expanded its revolving credit capacity from $75.0 million to $125.0 million. Proceeds from the debt, which were priced in line with Acuren’s existing facility, were used along with cash on hand to fund the cash portion of the NV5 purchase price, including repayment of NV5’s outstanding debt and transaction-related expenses.

Guidance

In connection with the recently completed NV5 acquisition, the Company is actively reviewing and updating its financial outlook to reflect the combined business. Acuren expects to provide refreshed consolidated guidance, including anticipated ranges for revenue and Adjusted EBITDA, with its third quarter earnings results in November 2025. This approach reflects our commitment to delivering a comprehensive outlook for investors and allows us to incorporate deeper information sharing and strategic planning into our full-year guidance.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Organic Change In Service Revenue, and Adjusted Selling, General and Administrative ("SG&A") Expenses which are non-U.S. GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

As used in this press release, Adjusted Gross Profit is defined as Gross Profit less depreciation expense included in cost of revenue for the periods presented. Adjusted Gross Margin is defined as Gross Profit divided by service revenue. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for the periods presented and Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA excluding the impact of certain non-cash and other specifically identified items for the periods presented. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by service revenue. Organic Change In Service Revenue provides a consistent basis for a year-over-year comparison in service revenue as it excludes the impacts of material acquisitions, divestitures, and the impact of changes due to foreign currency translation. Adjusted SG&A is defined as SG&A Expense less depreciation and amortization and the impact of certain non-cash and other specifically identified items for the periods presented.

The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures and additional financial information both in explaining its results to shareholders and the investment community and in its internal evaluation and management of its businesses. The Company’s management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures and the information they provide are useful to investors since these measures (a) permit investors to view the Company’s performance using the same tools that management uses to evaluate the Company’s past performance, reportable business segments and prospects for future performance, (b) permit investors to compare the Company with its peers, (c) determines certain elements of management’s incentive compensation, and (d) provide consistent period-to-period comparisons of the results.

While the Company believes these non-GAAP measures are useful in evaluating the Company’s performance, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for or superior to the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from similar measures presented by other companies. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures is included later in this press release.
