APi Group Provides Update on 2025 Performance and Initial 2026 Guidance

Key Terms

adjusted ebitda financial

Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.

free cash flow conversion financial

Free cash flow conversion measures how effectively a company turns its reported profits into actual cash that can be used for growth, debt repayment, or dividends. It compares the cash generated after expenses to the company's net income, similar to how a person might compare their savings to their paycheck. High conversion indicates the company is efficient at translating profits into cash, which is important for investors assessing its financial health and flexibility.

net leverage ratio financial

The net leverage ratio measures how much debt a company has compared to its available assets or earnings, after accounting for its cash and liquid assets. It helps investors understand how heavily a company relies on borrowed money to finance its operations and growth. A higher ratio indicates greater financial risk, while a lower ratio suggests a more cautious approach to borrowing.

forward-looking statements regulatory

Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.

regulation g regulatory

Regulation G is a U.S. securities rule that requires companies to show and explain how any highlighted financial numbers that differ from standard accounting figures were calculated, and to provide a clear bridge to the official results. For investors this acts like a recipe card: when a company presents a simplified or adjusted profit number, Regulation G forces them to show the original ingredients and steps so readers can judge whether the adjusted figure gives a clearer or misleading picture of financial health.

non-u.s. gaap financial measures financial

Non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are company-reported numbers that adjust or repackage results prepared under standard U.S. accounting rules to highlight aspects of performance management believes are important. Think of them like a chef presenting a cleaned-up version of a recipe that removes certain ingredients to show a core flavor; they can help investors see trends or cash-generation potential but may omit costs or one-time items, so compare them with GAAP figures for a full picture.

adjusted ebitda margin financial

Adjusted EBITDA margin shows how much profit a company makes from its core operations, expressed as a percentage of its total revenue, after removing certain one-time or unusual expenses and income. It helps investors understand the company's true earning ability from regular business activities, making it easier to compare performance over time or with other companies. Think of it as measuring the efficiency of a business in turning sales into profits, excluding irregular adjustments.

NEW BRIGHTON, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- APi Group Corporation (NYSE: APG) (“APi” or the “Company”) today provided an update on year-end 2025 results and net revenue and adjusted EBITDA guidance for 2026.

Financial Update:

Russ Becker, APi’s President and Chief Executive Officer stated: “I want to thank all our leaders for their contributions to APi. In 2025, execution of our strategy drove another year of record financial results. We delivered strong organic growth, continued to expand adjusted EBITDA margins, and improved adjusted free cash flow conversion. We expect net revenues and adjusted EBITDA for 2025 to be comfortably above the midpoint of our guidance provided on October 30, 2025, of $7,825 to $7,925 million and $1,015 to $1,045 million, respectively.

Further, we expect our adjusted EBITDA margins to be above our 13% target and adjusted free cash flow conversion to be in line with our target of 80%. Back in 2021, we introduced our “13/60/80” shareholder value creation framework. Since then, and through 2025, “13/60/80” has been our north star, and I am thankful to all our teammates for their focus, discipline, and commitment that made these results possible. We also expect to end the year with a net leverage ratio significantly below 2.0x, comfortably under our target of 2.5 – 3.0x. We believe that the strength of our balance sheet provides continued opportunity to pursue value enhancing capital allocation alternatives in 2026.”

Becker continued, “I am excited about the opportunities for the business in 2026 across our global platform. At current foreign exchange rates and including acquisitions closed to date, we expect net revenues for 2026 to range between $8,400 to $8,600 million, driven by strong organic growth in both service and project revenues. For 2026 adjusted EBITDA, we expect to deliver between $1,140 to $1,200 million, representing a 13.8% adjusted EBITDA margin at the midpoint. We look forward to providing more detail on our 2025 performance as well as our outlook for 2026 on our earnings call on February 25, 2026.”

Given these risks and uncertainties, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Additional information concerning these risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to vary is, or will be, included in the periodic and other reports filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward-looking statements included in this press release speak only as of the date hereof and, except as required by applicable law, the Company does not undertake any obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or circumstances after the date of this press release.

We do not provide reconciliations of forward-looking non-U.S. GAAP adjusted EBITDA to GAAP due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations, including adjustments that could be made for acquisitions and divestitures, systems and business enablement expenses, business process transformation expenses, one-time and other events such as impairment charges, transaction and other costs related to acquisitions and divestitures, restructuring costs, miscellaneous capital market activities, and other charges reflected in our reconciliation of historic numbers, the amount of which, based on historical experience, could be significant.

The preliminary, unaudited financial estimates contained in this press release are based on information available to management as of the date of this press release, remain subject to the completion of normal year-end accounting procedures and adjustments, and are subject to change. Our independent registered public accounting firm has not completed its audit of our results for the year ended December 31, 2025. During the course of the preparation of our consolidated financial statements and related notes, and completion of our financial close and procedures for the year ended, adjustments to the preliminary estimates may be identified, and such adjustments may be material. In addition, other developments may arise between now and the time the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 are finalized. We undertake no obligation to update the information in this press release in the event facts or circumstances change after the date of this press release.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

This press release contains non-U.S. GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company uses certain non-U.S. GAAP financial measures that are included in this press release and the 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-U.S. 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 and prospects for future performance, (b) permit investors to compare the Company with its peers, (c) determine certain elements of management’s incentive compensation, and (d) provide consistent period-to-period comparisons of the results. Specifically:

• The Company supplements the reporting of its consolidated financial information with certain non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, excluding the impact of certain non-cash and other specifically identified items. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenues. The Company believes these measures provide meaningful information and help investors understand the Company’s financial results and assess its prospects for future performance. On a consolidated basis, the Company uses adjusted EBITDA to evaluate its performance, both internally and as compared with its peers, because it excludes certain items that may not be indicative of the Company’s core operating results.
