$390.8 million and increased6% (reported revenue of$317.2 million , increased11% ) - Combined gross profit was
$57.1 million (15.7% ) and decreased23% (reported gross profit of$49.7 million (15.7% ), decreased25% ) - Adjusted EPS was

$45.7 million and increased$56.3 million - Net debt was
$904.0 million and increased$7.1 million during the quarter
Third Quarter 2025 Operational Highlights:
Revenue and combined revenue for the third quarter increased, driven primarily by incremental contract wins and commissioned growth assets in the Heavy Equipment - Australia Segment.
- Heavy Equipment - Australia revenue increased
26% to$188.5 million from$149.5 million , driven by a20% expansion in fleet size, strong operational performance under favourable weather, and higher volumes from three major Australian contracts secured over the past year. - Heavy Equipment - Canada revenue decreased
5% to$125.7 million from$132.7 million , primarily due to reduced scopes at the Syncrude mines and lower overburden and reclamation activity in the oil sands. - Revenue generated by joint ventures and affiliates decreased
8% to$73.5 million from$80.3 million , largely related to decreased volumes generated from the Nuna Group of Companies. - Our portion of revenue generated by the civil-infrastructure Fargo project remained strong this year, comparable to the prior year, as the project continued strong production momentum and progressed towards
80% complete.
Compared to 2025 Q2, 2025 Q3 results demonstrated solid sequential improvement with a
- In Australia, strong operational execution, favourable weather, lower third-party maintenance and scale efficiencies gained from fleet expansion supported gross profit margin gains of
4.5% . - In Canada, gross margin improved by
4.8% as steady operations replaced the temporary shutdowns experienced in the prior quarter. - Overall combined gross margin improved
5.7% , from8.9% 1 to14.6% , reflecting operational consistency, improved cost control across the business and enhanced heavy equipment productivities.
1 Certain prior period costs within our Fargo joint venture have been reclassified from non-operating to operating to better align with NACG classifications. This reclassification changed combined gross profit and combined gross profit margin, but has no impact on revenue, income before taxes, or net income.
Gross profit for the current quarter came in lower than the prior year. Heavy Equipment - Australia experienced higher operating costs relating primarily to the mix of contract and mine site work, offset by cost savings on parts spend relating to favourable dry weather conditions. Heavy Equipment - Canada margins were impacted by demobilization costs and investment in equipment maintenance.
Adjusted EPS of
The Q3 adjusted EBITDA was lower year-over-year due to the same factors that impacted gross profit; however, we experienced a

Basis of Presentation
We have prepared our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US GAAP"). Unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts discussed are in Canadian dollars. Please see the Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, for further detail on the matters discussed in this release. In addition to the MD&A, please reference the dedicated 2025 Q3 Results Presentation for more information on our results and projections which can be found on our website under Investors - Presentations.
Change in significant accounting policy - Classification of heavy equipment tires
Effective in the first quarter of 2025, we have changed our accounting policy for the classification of heavy equipment tires. These tires are now recognized as property, plant, and equipment on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized through depreciation on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Previously, all tires were classified as inventories and expensed through cost of sales when placed into service. This change in accounting policy provides a more accurate reflection of the role of tires as components of the heavy equipment in which they are utilized, aligning the accounting treatment with the economic substance of their use.
We have applied this change retrospectively in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, by restating the comparative period. For further details regarding the retrospective adjustments, refer to Note 16 in the consolidated financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release presents certain non-GAAP financial measures because management believes that they may be useful to investors in analyzing our business performance, leverage and liquidity. The non-GAAP financial measures we present include "adjusted EBIT", "adjusted EBITDA", "adjusted EBITDA margin", "adjusted EPS", "adjusted net earnings", "capital additions", "capital work in progress", "cash liquidity", "cash provided by operating activities prior to change in working capital", "cash related interest expense", "combined gross profit", "combined gross profit margin", "equity investment depreciation and amortization", "equity investment EBIT", "free cash flow", "general and administrative expenses (excluding stock-based compensation)", "gross profit margin", "growth capital", "margin", "net debt", "net debt leverage", "senior-secured debt", "sustaining capital", "total capital liquidity", and "total combined revenue". A non-GAAP financial measure is defined by relevant regulatory authorities as a numerical measure of an issuer's historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flow that is not specified, defined or determined under the issuer’s GAAP and that is not presented in an issuer’s financial statements. These non-GAAP measures do not have any standardized meaning and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Each non-GAAP financial measure used in this press release is defined and reconciled to its most directly comparable GAAP measure in the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of our Management’s Discussion and Analysis filed concurrently with this press release.
