CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Aug. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Astec Industries, Inc. (Nasdaq: ASTE) announced today its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025.

“Astec reported another strong quarter building on its strategic initiatives to deliver consistency, profitability and growth,” said Jaco van der Merwe, Chief Executive Officer. “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 Financial Officer, 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.”

We present certain non-GAAP information that can be useful in understanding our operating results and the performance of our core business. We use both GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures to establish internal budgets and targets and to evaluate financial performance against such budgets and targets. We exclude the costs and related tax effects, which are based on the statutory tax rate applicable to each respective item unless otherwise noted below, of the following items as we do not believe they are indicative of our core business operations:

  • Transformation program – Incremental costs related to the execution of our ongoing strategic transformation initiatives which may include personnel costs, third-party consultant costs, duplicative systems usage fees, administrative costs, accelerated depreciation and amortization on certain long-lived assets and other similar type charges. Transformation program initiatives include our multi-year phased implementation of a standardized enterprise resource planning system. These costs are included in “Cost of sales” and “Selling, general and administrative expenses”, as appropriate, in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
  • Restructuring and other related charges – Charges related to restructuring activities, to the extent that they are experienced, may include personnel termination actions and reorganization efforts to simplify and consolidate our operations. These costs are recorded in “Restructuring, impairment and other asset charges, net” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
  • Goodwill impairment – Goodwill impairment charges, to the extent that they are experienced, are recorded in “Goodwill impairment” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
  • Asset impairment – Asset impairment charges, to the extent that they are experienced, are recorded in “Restructuring, impairment and other asset charges, net” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
  • Gain on sale of property and equipment, net – Gains or losses recognized on the disposal of property and equipment that are recorded in “Restructuring, impairment and other asset charges, net” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. We may sell or dispose of assets in the normal course of our business operations as they are no longer needed or used.
  • Transaction costs – Costs associated with the pursuit of acquisition opportunities, including our recent TerraSource acquisition, or the effected acquisition and integration of acquired businesses. These costs are typically included in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
