Ajay Khare, Chief Executive Officer of Aeries, commented: "Fiscal year 2026 was a year of meaningful operational progress for Aeries. We delivered revenue of $70 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $8.3 million, exceeding our increased guidance range of $7 million to $8 million, with Adjusted EBITDA margin expanding to 11.9% from (6.6)% in fiscal year 2025. We generated $6.8 million in cash from operating activities, reported our fourth consecutive quarter of positive operating cash flow, and returned to net income of $3.5 million.

During the year, we continued to improve operating leverage through disciplined execution, automation-enabled productivity initiatives, and expansion of multi-year GCC engagements across North America, India, and Mexico. We also continued to deepen our relationships within the private equity ecosystem and expand client engagements across our GCC delivery model. This included the launch of our AeriesOne A1 GCC Platform, which embeds AI-enabled automation across our delivery model and represents an important step in how we deliver value for clients.

Based on our current portfolio of signed contracts and ongoing client expansions, we are reiterating our previously stated fiscal year 2027 outlook. We remain focused on profitable growth, operational discipline, and continued execution across our GCC platform."

Strategic and Operational Highlights

• Launched the AeriesOne A1 GCC Platform, integrating AI-enabled automation into GCC operations to enable improved efficiency, scalability, and real-time decision-making across client engagements
• Continued momentum in transformation programs and automation-enabled delivery initiatives
• Sustained focus on governance, operational efficiency, and scalable delivery execution
  
  

Demand for GCC-led operating models remained strong throughout the year, particularly among private equity-backed and mid-market enterprises seeking scalable, technology-enabled global operating structures.

Aeries further scaled its Mexico delivery presence during the year, supporting multi-country GCC strategies and nearshore-offshore operating models for North American clients.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses non-GAAP financial information and believes it is useful to investors as it provides additional information to facilitate comparisons of historical operating results, identify trends in its underlying operating results and provide additional insight and transparency on how it evaluates the business. The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures to budget, make operating and strategic decisions, and evaluate its performance. The Company has detailed the non-GAAP adjustments that it makes in the non-GAAP definitions below. The adjustments generally fall within the categories of non-cash items. The Company believes the non-GAAP measures presented herein should always be considered along with, and not as a substitute for or superior to, the related GAAP financial measures. In addition, similarly titled items used by other companies may not be comparable due to variations in how they are calculated and how terms are defined. For further information, see “Reconciliation of Non—GAAP Financial Measures” below, including the reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, further adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation, M&A transaction-related costs, severance pay, and changes in fair value of derivative liabilities.

Adjusted EBITDA is a key performance indicator the Company uses in evaluating our operating performance and in making financial, operating, and planning decisions. The Company believes this measure is useful to investors in the evaluation of Aeries’ operating performance as such information was used by the Company’s management for internal reporting and planning procedures, including aspects of our consolidated operating budget and capital expenditures. Adjusted EBITDA as a measure has some limitations in that it does not reflect: (i) our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (ii) foreign exchange gain/loss; (iii) changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital; (iv) significant interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our outstanding debt; (v) payments made or future requirements for income taxes; (vi) cash requirements for future replacement or payment in depreciated or amortized assets; (vii) stock based compensation costs, (viii) severance pay, (ix) Business Combination and M&A transaction related costs, which represent non-recurring legal, professional, personnel and other fees and expenses incurred in connection with potential mergers and acquisitions related activities, and (x) change in fair value of derivative liabilities. We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenue.

The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP, as the Company is unable to estimate significant non-recurring or unusual items without unreasonable effort. The amounts and timing of these items are uncertain and could be material to the Company's results calculated in accordance with GAAP.
