RESTON, Va.
, Nov. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — V2X, Inc. (NYSE:VVX) announced third quarter 2025 financial results. “Our third quarter results demonstrate our continued focus on operational and strategic execution,” said Jeremy C. Wensinger, President and Chief Executive Officer. “The trends in our business remain positive and are being driven by continued demand for mission readiness solutions.”

Mr. Wensinger continued, “Our differentiated capabilities and alignment to customer priorities were proven firsthand through several new awards during the quarter. This includes an award to deliver counter-UAS capabilities via our Tempest platform. Tempest is a rugged, commercially based combat vehicle engineered to detect, engage, and defeat various UAS. The platform, which went from idea to fielding in a matter of months, illustrates our unique ability to deliver rapid prototyping solutions that improve mission success on the modern battlefield. We were also awarded a $425 million indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contract to modernize and upgrade F-16 cockpit displays for the U.S. Air Force. This is a great example of how smart modernization can deliver immediate mission enhancement at significantly lower cost than full replacement.” 

Mr. Wensinger concluded, “Our results and awards demonstrate the value that V2X brings to our customers. We are further building on that value and during the quarter completed a strategic acquisition that brings new capabilities and access to new opportunities in the intelligence community.  We are also accelerating our innovation strategy through new partnerships with top tier technology providers in the areas of AI and smart readiness. This is representative of how we are executing our strategy and advancing V2X to be a leader in data-enabled mission solutions across all domains.”

Third Quarter 2025 Results

“Revenue grew 8% year-over-year in the third quarter to $1.17 billion,” said Shawn Mural, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “The performance in the third quarter reflects both continued demand for our solutions and our focus on execution. I’m proud of what our team has achieved thus far in 2025 and believe it positions us well as we look ahead.”

“For the quarter, the Company reported operating income of $55.7 million, an increase of $5.8 million or 12% from the prior year. Adjusted operating income1 was $79.6 million, an increase of $2.7 million dollars or 4% from the prior year. V2X delivered adjusted EBITDA1 of $85.2 million, with a margin of 7.3%. Net income for the quarter was $24.6 million, an increase of $9.6 million or 63% from the prior year. Adjusted net income1 was $43.7 million, an increase of $2.4 million dollars or 6% year-over-year. Third quarter GAAP diluted EPS was $0.77. Adjusted diluted EPS1 for the quarter was $1.37, an increase of 6% year-over-year.”

“Third quarter net cash provided by operating activities was $39.4 million. Adjusted net cash provided by operating activities1 was $35.8 million.”

Mr. Mural continued, “Last quarter we outlined the key components of our capital allocation strategy, which focused on accelerating value creation. I’m pleased to report that during the third quarter we put that strategy into action by repurchasing $10 million of shares and completing a strategic acquisition. These were great first steps in our capital deployment journey, which we believe will yield strong returns for shareholders.”


2025 Guidance

Mr. Mural concluded, “Given our performance to date and the trends in our business we’re increasing the midpoint of our revenue, adjusted EBITDA1, and adjusted diluted EPS1 guidance. Although we have not seen a material impact from the government shutdown to date, we are proactively lowering the midpoint of adjusted net cash provided by operating activites1 to account for potential temporary delays in collections. I want to emphasize this is merely timing related and not indicative of a change in our underlying business.”

Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Measures

The primary financial performance measures we use to manage our business and monitor results of operations are revenue trends and operating income trends. Management believes that these financial performance measures are the primary drivers for our earnings and net cash from operating activities. Management evaluates its contracts and business performance by focusing on revenue, and operating income. Operating income represents revenue less both cost of revenue and selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses. Cost of revenue consists of labor, subcontracting costs, materials, and an allocation of indirect costs. SG&A expenses consist of indirect labor costs (including wages and salaries for executives and administrative personnel), bid and proposal expenses and other general and administrative expenses not allocated to cost of revenue. Backlog is the estimated amount of future revenues to be recognized under negotiated contracts.

We manage the nature and amount of costs at the program level, which forms the basis for estimating our total costs and profitability. This is consistent with our approach for managing our business, which begins with management’s assessing the bidding opportunity for each contract and then managing contract profitability throughout the performance period.

In addition to the key performance measures discussed above, we consider adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted operating income, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, net leverage ratio and adjusted operating cash flow to be useful to management and investors in evaluating our operating performance, and to provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations. This information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and measures our ability to generate capital for deployment among competing strategic alternatives and initiatives. We provide this information to our investors in our earnings releases, presentations, and other disclosures.

Adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted operating income, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, net leverage ratio, and adjusted net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, however, are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP.  Definitions and reconciliations of these items are provided below.

  • Adjusted operating income is defined as operating income, adjusted to exclude items that may include, but are not limited to, significant charges or credits, and unusual and infrequent non-operating items that impact current results but are not related to our ongoing operations, such as M&A, integration, and related costs.
  • Adjusted EBITDA is defined as operating income, adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization of intangible assets, and items that may include, but are not limited to, significant charges or credits, and unusual and infrequent non-operating items that impact current results but are not related to our ongoing operations, such as M&A, integration, and related costs.
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.
  • Adjusted net income is defined as net income, adjusted to exclude items that may include, but are not limited to, significant charges or credits, and unusual and infrequent non-operating items that impact current results but are not related to our ongoing operations, such as M&A, integration and related costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, amortization of debt issuance costs, and loss on extinguishment of debt.
  • Adjusted diluted earnings per share is defined as adjusted net income divided by the weighted average diluted common shares outstanding.
  • Cash interest expense, net is defined as interest expense, net adjusted to exclude amortization of debt issuance costs.
  • Adjusted net cash provided by (
    used in)
    operating activities or adjusted operating cash flow is defined as net cash provided by (or used in) operating activities adjusted to exclude infrequent non-operating items, such as M&A payments and related costs.
