(2) We have not reconciled the forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA guidance included above to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because this cannot be done without unreasonable effort due to the variability and low visibility with respect to certain costs, the most significant of which are incentive compensation (including stock-based compensation), transaction-related expenses, certain fair value measurements, which are potential adjustments to future earnings. We expect the variability of these items to have a potentially unpredictable, and a potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.

"We continue to demonstrate our ability to achieve and exceed the ambitious goals we set for ourselves, both for organic growth, which at 35.3% this quarter was significantly ahead of our targets, as well as for our M&A platform," said Will Heyburn, Co-CEO and CFO. "We’re seeing smaller competitors proactively reach out, hoping to join forces which serves to enhance our already strong acquisition pipeline. At the same time, we are working diligently towards closing multiple opportunities currently under exclusivity that are operating directly in our core competency areas and are actionable at mid-single digit multiples of Adjusted EBITDA."

Heyburn added, "We expect that our successful continued execution on these acquisition opportunities will significantly accelerate our growth trajectory, enabling us to maintain an average annualized Adjusted EBITDA growth rate of at least 30% over the coming years."

"We are set up for success in the evolving regulatory environment with a customer base over-indexed to high performing transplant centers and Organ Procurement Organizations that are being held up as the gold standard under new and proposed regulations, which are prioritizing efficiency and better utilization of medically complex organs, particularly those resulting from Donation after Circulatory Death, or DCD" said Melissa Tomkiel, Co-CEO and General Counsel. "In the past quarter, these regulations directly resulted in new business for us when an underperforming OPO was absorbed by one of our existing customers, while we continue to see growing interest from new customers given our reputation as a leader in the recovery and transportation of all organ types and our unique expertise in DCD recovery."

Tomkiel added, "Our acquisition of Keystone continues to bear fruit across the organization with more than 40% of our sequential Logistics revenue growth in Q4 generated from Keystone's legacy customers, demonstrating the value of our integrated, one-call offering."

The Company also announced that Dr. Scott Silvestry has assumed an expanded role as Chief Medical Officer of Strata, where he will oversee the delivery of consistent clinical excellence throughout the organization.

“We are at a pivotal moment in transplantation,” said Dr. Silvestry. “New technologies and supportive regulatory frameworks are driving a significant increase in transplant volumes while steadily reducing the number of patients on waitlists. With our unwavering commitment to clinical excellence, collaborative partnership model, extensive regional network of organ recovery hubs and logistics bases, and advanced NRP offerings, Strata is exceptionally well positioned to cost-effectively advance the transplant community’s shared mission.”

Fourth Quarter Ended December 31, 2025 Financial Highlights

Total revenue increased 83.5% to $66.8 million in the current quarter versus $36.4 million in the prior year period.
Logistics revenue, which represents the Company's organic revenue growth excluding Keystone, increased 35.3% to $49.2 million in the current quarter versus $36.4 million in the prior year period driven by new and existing customers as well as a higher logistics attachment rate for Transplant Clinical cases.
Clinical revenue was $17.6 million in the current quarter versus $2.8 million in Q3 2025, reflecting the mid-September 2025 close of the Keystone acquisition. Compared to historical unaudited financial results in prior periods before the Keystone acquisition closed, Clinical revenue grew strongly in the mid double digits year-over-year and mid single digits quarter-over-quarter.
Transplant Clinical revenue was $7.8 million in Q4 2025 versus $1.2 million in Q3 2025.
Other Clinical revenue was $9.8 million in Q4 2025 versus $1.6 million in Q3 2025.
Gross profit increased 90.0% to $14.4 million in Q4 2025 versus $7.6 million in the prior year period. Gross margin increased approximately 80 basis points year-over-year to 21.6% versus 20.8% in the prior year period driven by higher logistics gross margins and a positive mix impact from the Keystone acquisition.
Logistics gross profit, which represents the Company's organic growth excluding Keystone, increased 39.5% to $10.6 million in Q4 2025 versus $7.6 million in the prior year period driven by strong revenue growth and an approximate 70 basis points increase in gross margin to 21.5% versus 20.8% in the year ago period.
Net loss from continuing operations decreased by $2.0 million year-over-year to $(5.4) million versus $(7.4) million in the prior year period.
Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ increased by $5.9 million year-over-year to $7.0 million in the current quarter versus $1.1 million in the prior year period.
Operating cash flow was $(8.3) million in Q4 2025. The $15.3 million difference between Adjusted EBITDA and operating cash flow was driven by $9.6 million of non-recurring items including a legacy legal settlement, residual transaction costs and other non-recurring items along with an approximate $5.7 million increase in working capital.
Capital expenditures of $2.0 million were driven primarily by aircraft maintenance and the purchase of ground logistics vehicles.
Free Cash Flow from continuing operations, before aircraft and engine acquisitions was $(8.7) million Q4 2025.
Ended FY 2025 with $61.2 million in cash and short term investments.

Business Highlights and Recent Updates

Acquired one additional aircraft in early 2026 to support customer wins in new geographies, which are expected to launch mid-year.
Actions taken to build-out an abdominal organ recovery platform with the hiring of a Surgical Director for Abdominal Organ Recovery along with key operational hires to support the expansion of our organ recovery platform.
Closed $30 million asset-backed credit facility with JP Morgan, supporting our ability to execute on our M&A pipeline. The facility is attractively priced, is undrawn and can be increased to $50 million subject to certain conditions.

Financial Outlook

Today, we are raising our 2026 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance:

Revenue of $260-275 million (previously: $255-270 million)
Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾of $29-33 million (previously: $28-32 million)
Free cash flow, before aircraft and engine acquisitions of $15-22 million

(1) We have not reconciled the forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA guidance included above to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because this cannot be done without unreasonable effort due to the variability and low visibility with respect to certain costs, the most significant of which are incentive compensation (including stock-based compensation), transaction-related expenses, certain fair value measurements, which are potential adjustments to future earnings. We expect the variability of these items to have a potentially unpredictable, and a potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.

Conference Call

The Company will conduct a conference call starting at 8:00 a.m. ET on March 3, 2026 to discuss the results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2025.

A live audio-only webcast of the call may be accessed from the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website at https://ir.stratacritical.com/. An archived replay of the call will be available on the Investor Relations section of the Company's website for one year.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

Strata believes that the non-GAAP measures discussed below, viewed in addition to and not in lieu of our reported U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") results, provide useful information to investors by providing a more focused measure of operating results, enhance the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision making. The non-GAAP measures presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted SG&A, Free Cash Flow, and Free Cash Flow from continuing operations and before aircraft and engines acquisitions. Those measures have been reconciled to the nearest GAAP measure in the tables within this press release.

Adjusted EBITDA – Strata reports Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Strata defines Adjusted EBITDA as net loss adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, change in fair value of warrant liabilities and other assets and liabilities, interest income and expense, income tax, realized gains and losses on short-term investments, impairment of intangible assets or property and equipment and certain other non-recurring items that management does not believe are indicative of ongoing Company operating performance and would impact the comparability of results between periods.

Adjusted SG&A – Strata defines Adjusted selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses as SG&A adjusted to exclude depreciation, stock-based compensation, impairment of property and equipment, other non-cash items and certain other non-recurring items that management does not believe are indicative of the Company's ongoing operating performance that could affect the comparability of results between periods.

Free Cash Flow, Free Cash Flow from continuing operations, and Free Cash Flow from continuing operations before aircraft and engines acquisitions – Strata defines Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by / (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures and capitalized software development costs (net of proceeds from disposals). Free Cash Flow from continuing operations is defined as Free Cash Flow excluding transaction costs associated with the Passenger business sale. Free Cash Flow from continuing operations before aircraft and engines acquisitions is defined as Free Cash Flow from continuing operations excluding cash outflows related to aircraft and engines acquisitions. Strata believes these measures provide valuable insights into the Company's cash-generating capacity. In particular, Free Cash Flow from continuing operations before aircraft and engines acquisitions highlights the cash generated by Strata's continuing operations prior to the impact of aircraft and engines acquisitions, which are discretionary and strategic in nature.

Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and may be identified by the use of words such as "will", “anticipate”, “believe”, “could”, “continue”, “expect", “estimate”, “may”, “plan”, “outlook”, “future”, "target", and “project” and other similar expressions and the negatives of those terms. These statements, which involve risks and uncertainties, are based on forecasts of future results and estimates of amounts not yet determinable and may also relate to Strata’s future prospects, developments and business strategies. In particular, such forward-looking statements include statements concerning the impact and anticipated benefits of the acquisition of Keystone, the impact of such acquisition on Strata’s financial performance, Strata’s future plans and business strategies, financial and operating performance (including the discussion of financial outlook and guidance for 2026 and beyond), acquisition opportunities, results of operations, and industry environment and growth opportunities. These statements are based on management’s current expectations and beliefs, as well as a number of assumptions concerning future events. Actual results may differ materially from the results predicted, and reported results should not be considered as an indication of future performance.

Such forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are outside Strata’s control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in forward-looking statements include: our continued net losses or failure to achieve or maintain profitability; our ability to realize the anticipated benefits of strategic transactions, including the recently completed divestment of the Passenger business and acquisition and integration of Keystone; any future acquisitions or partnerships; harm to our reputation and brand; negative publicity, litigation, claims or regulatory scrutiny; our ability to provide high-quality customer support and maintain trusted relationships with customers; our reliance on contractual relationships with transplant centers, hospitals, Organ Procurement Organizations and strategic partners; adoption and effective utilization of our integrated clinical and logistics offerings by medical customers; competition; our dependence on the availability and utilization of organ donors and transplant volumes; insufficient reimbursement or funding for organ transport and related services; risks inherent in organ transportation operations; risks associated with ground transportation operations; advancements in preservation technology or alternative transport methods; aviation safety risks; the effects of climate change, extreme weather events or environmental developments affecting our operations; terrorist attacks, geopolitical conflict or security events affecting aviation or healthcare infrastructure; the volatility in aircraft fuel availability or cost; our ability to obtain additional capital or financing; restrictions under our credit agreement; our ability to manage our growth; insurance market conditions; our dependence on key personnel and our ability to attract and retain qualified professionals; employment-related claims, workforce litigation or labor market challenges; our ability to maintain our company culture as we grow; fluctuations in financial results and the non-comparability of historical financial statements; risks associated with purchasing aircraft or evolving from an asset-light model; risks associated with directly operating aircraft; our reliance on maintaining efficient aircraft utilization to manage costs, operating efficiency and margins; changes in regulatory frameworks; our reliance on third-party aircraft operators; the availability of sufficient third-party aircraft capacity; workforce disruptions, operations interruptions or financial difficulties affecting third-party operators or service workers; risks arising from illegal, improper, or otherwise inappropriate operation of branded aircraft by third-party operators; our reliance on third-party cloud infrastructure, hosting providers and other technology vendors; interruptions, defects, failures or vulnerabilities in our technology systems or those of third-party providers; cybersecurity incidents, data breaches or misuse of artificial intelligence technologies; our ability to protect and enforce intellectual property rights; risks associated with our use of open-source software;; our operations within highly regulated environments; the impact of any litigation or regulatory investigations that we may be subject to; our ability to comply with privacy, data protection, consumer protection and security laws;; the expansion of environmental regulations; our ability to remediate any material weaknesses and maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures; and other factors beyond our control. Additional factors can be found in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, each as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for us to predict these events or how they may affect us. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made, and Strata undertakes no obligation to update or revise the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, changes in expectations, future events or otherwise.
