BATAVIA, NY, August 6, 2026 – Graham Corporation (NYSE: GHM) (“GHM” or the “Company”), a global leader in the design and manufacture of mission critical fluid, power, heat transfer, vacuum, and advanced mixing technologies for the Defense, Space, and Energy & Process industries, today reported financial results for its first quarter for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027 (“fiscal 2027”).

Our revenue growth was across all of our business units, and bookings remained strong, which we believe, along with our record backlog, positions us well to achieve our long-term growth and profitability goals.

Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 were $71.3 million, up $15.9 million, or 29%, compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2026, reflecting the strength of our diversified revenue base, as well as the acquisition of FlackTek, which added $6.6 million to revenue during the quarter. The increase for the quarter was across multiple markets, including an $11.8 million, or 40%, increase in sales to the Defense market, primarily due to the timing of project milestones, as well as new programs and growth in existing programs. Sales to the Space market increased $2.9 million, or 86%, over the prior year first quarter, due to new programs and the ramp up of existing programs, as well as the FlackTek acquisition. Sales to the Energy & Process markets increased $1,098, or 5%, as increases in Aftermarket sales and contributions from FlackTek were partially offset by push outs on large capital project activity. Aftermarket sales to the Energy & Process and Defense markets of $9.7 million remained strong, increasing 20% over the first quarter of the prior year.
Gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 was $17.8 million or 25.0% of sales, compared with $14.7 million, or 26.5% of sales, in the prior-year period. The 150-basis point decline in gross profit margin reflects the mix of sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2027, and in particular, a higher level of Defense sales and material receipts, which carry a lower profit margin.
Selling, general and administrative expense (“SG&A”), including intangible amortization, for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 increased $3.2 million or 33%, over the prior year first quarter. Acquisition and integration expenses contributed $0.6 million of the increase compared to the prior year first quarter. Additionally, incremental SG&A from the acquisition of FlackTek accounted for $1.8 million of the increase. The remaining increase primarily reflects investments the Company is making in its people, processes, and technology, which we expect to be approximately $2.5 million of incremental costs for fiscal 2027, partially offset by a reduction in costs related to the Barber-Nichols Performance Bonus, which is no longer in effect in fiscal 2027. During the first quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company recorded $1.1 million related to the Barber-Nichols Performance Bonus, inclusive of applicable payroll taxes and no corresponding expense was recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2027.
Cash Management and Balance Sheet
Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2026, were $27.0 million, compared with $6.6 million in the previous quarter. During the quarter, the Company strengthened its balance sheet through a $50.0 million investment from accounts advised by T. Rowe Price, of which $13.0 million of the proceeds were used for debt repayment, with the remaining proceeds expected to fund future organic and inorganic growth opportunities.
Net cash used by operating activities was $12.7 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2027, primarily due to the timing of billing and collection of accounts receivable and unbilled revenue and customer deposits, as well as the payment of fiscal 2026 bonuses, including the Barber-Nichols Performance Bonus, during the quarter.
Capital expenditures, net for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 were $2.6 million, focused on capacity expansion, increasing capabilities, and productivity improvements.
The Company had no debt outstanding as of June 30, 2026, with $74.5 million available on its revolving credit facility after taking into account outstanding letters of credit.

Orders for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 were $95.9 million, compared with $125.9 million in the prior year first quarter, which included $86.5 million of follow-on orders to support the U.S. Navy’s Virginia Class Submarine program. Order activity in the quarter continued to reflect strong demand in the Defense market, including approximately $61.8 million of new and follow-on orders to support the U.S. Navy’s Columbia and Virginia Class Submarine programs, as well as to provide mission-critical hardware for the MK48 Mod 7 Heavyweight Torpedo. Space market orders totaled $14.4 million, or 2.3x net Space sales for the quarter. Total Aftermarket orders for the Energy & Process and Defense markets increased 5% to $10.9 million and FlackTek contributed $13.2 million to orders during the quarter or 2.0x net FlackTek sales.
Note that our orders tend to be lumpy given the nature of our business (i.e. large capital projects) and in particular, orders to the Defense industry, which span multiple years and can be significantly larger in size.
Backlog at quarter end was a record $557.2 million, a 15% increase over the prior-year period, driven by strong bookings in the Defense and Space markets, and contributions from the FlackTek acquisition. For the quarter, the Company achieved a book-to-bill ratio of 1.3x, continuing momentum from a book-to-bill ratio of 1.5x in FY 2026. Approximately 35% to 40% of orders currently in backlog are expected to be converted to sales in the next twelve months, another 20% to 25% are expected to convert to sales within one to two years, and the remaining beyond two years. Approximately 84% of our backlog as of June 30, 2026, was to the Defense industry, which provides stability and visibility for future revenue.

Mr. Thome continued, “With our first quarter results in line with our expectations, we are reaffirming our full year fiscal 2027 guidance. We remain focused on converting our record backlog into profitable growth as we execute throughout the remainder of the year.”

Safe Harbor Regarding Forward Looking Statements
This news release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions and are identified by words such as “continue,” “estimate,” “expects,” “focus,” “future,” “opportunities,” “outlook,” “believes,” “could,” “guidance,” “may”, “will,” “plan,” “strategy,” and other similar words. All statements addressing operating performance, events, or developments that Graham Corporation expects or anticipates will occur in the future, including but not limited to, profitability of future projects and the business, its ability to deliver to plan, its ability to continue to strengthen relationships with customers in the Defense industry, its ability to secure future projects and applications, expected expansion and growth opportunities, anticipated sales, revenues, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margins, capital expenditures and SG&A expenses, the timing of conversion of backlog to sales, orders, market presence, profit margins, tax rates, foreign sales operations, customer preferences, changes in market conditions in the industries in which it operates, changes in general economic conditions and customer behavior, forecasts regarding the timing and scope of the economic recovery in its markets, and its acquisition and growth strategy, are forward-looking statements. Because they are forward-

looking, they should be evaluated in light of important risk factors and uncertainties. These risk factors and uncertainties are more fully described in Graham Corporation’s most recent Annual Report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), included under the heading entitled “Risk Factors”, and in other reports filed with the SEC.
Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize or should any of Graham Corporation’s underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those currently anticipated. In addition, undue reliance should not be placed on Graham Corporation’s forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, Graham Corporation disclaims any obligation to update or publicly announce any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements contained in this news release.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as consolidated net income (loss) before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, other acquisition related expenses, equity-based compensation, ERP implementation costs, and other unusual/nonrecurring expenses. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of sales. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are not measures determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, commonly known as GAAP. Nevertheless, Graham believes that providing non-GAAP information, such as Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, is important for investors and other readers of Graham’s financial statements, as it is used as an analytical indicator by Graham’s management to better understand operating performance. Moreover, Graham’s credit facility also contains ratios based on Adjusted EBITDA. Because Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP measures and are thus susceptible to varying calculations, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA margin, as presented, may not be directly comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.
Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share are defined as net income and net income per diluted share as reported, adjusted for certain items and at a normalized tax rate. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share are not measures determined in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to the measures as used by other companies. Nevertheless, Graham believes that providing non-GAAP information, such as adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share, is important for investors and other readers of the Company’s financial statements and assists in understanding the comparison of the current quarter’s and current fiscal year’s net income and net income per diluted share to the historical periods’ net income and net income per diluted share. Graham also believes that adjusted net income per share, which adds back intangible amortization expense related to acquisitions, provides a better representation of the cash earnings of the Company.
Key Performance Indicators
In addition to the foregoing non-GAAP measures, management uses the following key performance metrics to analyze and measure the Company’s financial performance and results of operations: orders, backlog, and book-to-bill ratio. Management uses orders and backlog as measures of current and future business and financial performance, and these may not be comparable with measures provided by other companies. Orders represent definitive agreements with customers to provide products and/or services. Backlog is defined as the total dollar value of net orders received for which revenue has not yet been recognized. Total backlog can include both funded and unfunded orders under government contracts. Management believes tracking orders and backlog are useful as they often times are leading indicators of future performance. In accordance with industry practice, contracts may include provisions for cancellation, termination, or suspension at the discretion of the customer.
The book-to-bill ratio is an operational measure that management uses to track the growth prospects of the Company. The Company calculates the book-to-bill ratio for a given period as net orders divided by net sales.
Given that each of orders, backlog, and book-to-bill ratio are operational measures and that the Company’s methodology for calculating orders, backlog and book-to-bill ratio does not meet the definition of a non-GAAP measure, as that term is defined by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, a quantitative reconciliation for each is not required or provided.

Acquisition and integration expense (income), net are incremental costs that are directly related to, and as a result of, acquisition and integration related activity and the subsequent accounting for any contingent earn-out liabilities. These costs (income) may include, among other things, professional, consulting, travel expenses, and other fees, system integration costs, and contingent consideration fair value adjustments. ERP implementation costs primarily relate to consulting costs (training, data conversion, and project management) incurred in connection with the ERP system being implemented throughout our Batavia, New York facility in order to enhance efficiency and productivity and are not expected to recur once the project is completed.
