You are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve significant risks and uncertainties, certain of which are beyond VSE’s control, and that actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, some of which are unknown, including, without limitation, risks related to: the performance of the aviation aftermarket; global economic and political conditions; supply chain delays and disruptions; competition from existing and new competitors; losses related to investments in inventory and facilities; interruptions in the Company’s operations; challenges related to workforce management or any failure to attract or retain a skilled workforce; the significant expenses that have been incurred and will be incurred in connection with the acquisition of PAG; the Company’s ability to successfully integrate and achieve the strategic and other objectives and benefits, including any expected synergies, relating to recently completed acquisitions, including the acquisition of PAG; access to and the performance of third-party package delivery companies; prolonged periods of inflation and the Company’s ability to mitigate the impact thereof; future business conditions resulting in impairments; the Company’s ability to successfully divest businesses and to transition facilities in connection therewith; the Company’s work on large government programs; health epidemics, pandemics and similar outbreaks; compliance with government rules and regulations, including tariffs and environmental and pollution risk; the Company’s ability to mitigate the impacts of increased costs related to tariffs; litigation and legal actions arising from the Company’s operations; technology and cybersecurity threats and incidents; the Company’s outstanding indebtedness; market volatility in the debt and equity capital markets; the Company’s ability to continue to pay dividends at current levels or at all; the Company’s published financial guidance; restrictions and limitations that may stem from financing arrangements the Company enters into or assumes in the future; and the other factors identified in the Company’s reports filed or expected to be filed with the SEC, including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on February 27, 2026.

vsecorp.com In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), this earnings presentation also contains non-GAAP financial measures. These measures provide useful information to investors. VSE considers Adjusted Net Income from continuing operations, Adjusted EPS (Diluted) from continuing operations, EBITDA from continuing operations, Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, Adjusted EBITDA margin from continuing operations, Trailing Twelve Months ("TTM") Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, TTM Acquisition Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, organic revenue growth, net debt, net leverage ratio, Adjusted net leverage ratio, and free cash flow as non-GAAP financial measures and important indicators of performance and useful metrics for management and investors to evaluate VSE’s ongoing operating performance on a consistent basis across reporting periods. These non-GAAP financial measures, however, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted Net Income from continuing operations represents net income from continuing operations adjusted for acquisition, integration and restructuring costs, amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, other discrete items, and their related tax impact, which was calculated using an estimated statutory tax rate of 24.95% applied to all adjustments. Management believes these acquisition, integration and restructuring costs and other discrete items, which include divestiture- related restructuring costs, interest income on a note receivable, earn-out fair value adjustments, a loss on debt extinguishment, and debt issuance costs, provide useful information to help users meaningfully evaluate and compare the Company's quarterly and year-to-date performance against prior periods. Adjusted EPS (Diluted) from continuing operations is computed by dividing net income from continuing operations, adjusted for the discrete items as identified above and the related tax impacts, by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Beginning with the second quarter of 2026, Adjusted Net Income from continuing operations and Adjusted EPS (Diluted) from continuing operations now include adjustments for amortization of intangible assets and stock-based compensation, with retrospective adjustments included for prior periods presented. Management believes these adjustments provide useful information to evaluate VSE's ongoing operating performance on a consistent basis. EBITDA from continuing operations represents net income before net interest expense, income taxes, amortization of intangible assets and depreciation and other amortization. Management believes EBITDA from continuing operations provides useful information about the Company's operating performance as it isolates non-cash depreciation and amortization charges as well as interest expense, net and income taxes, which are financing and tax items. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations represents EBITDA from continuing operations (as defined above) adjusted for non-cash stock-based compensation and discrete items as identified above. Adjusted EBITDA margin from continuing operations represents Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations as a percentage of revenue. TTM Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations represents Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations as defined above for the trailing twelve months. TTM Acquisition Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations includes pre-acquisition portion of Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the trailing twelve months that is not included in historical results. TTM Acquisition Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations does not reflect all adjustments that would otherwise be required in connection with the preparation of pro forma financial statements in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. Organic revenue growth is defined as the change in revenue compared to the prior-year period, excluding revenue from acquired businesses for the first twelve months following the date of acquisition. Net debt is defined as principal amount of debt less debt issuance costs and less cash and cash equivalents. Free cash flow represents operating cash flow less capital expenditures and includes the results of both continuing and discontinued operations. Capital expenditures include purchases of property and equipment. Net leverage ratio is calculated as net debt divided by TTM Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations. Adjusted net leverage ratio is calculated as net debt divided by TTM Acquisition Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations. These measures are calculated as described in this release and differ from the Total Net Leverage Ratio as defined in the Company’s Credit Agreement. Reconciliations of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures and other information relating to these non-GAAP measures, other than organic revenue growth, are included in the supplemental schedules attached. Organic revenue growth for the three months ended September 30, 2026 of 17% is calculated based on year-over-year revenue growth of 91.2%, less a 74 percentage point revenue contribution from acquired businesses. These non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA margin is presented as a forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure. This measure is based solely on information available to VSE as of the date of this earnings presentation and may differ materially from VSE’s actual operating results as a result of developments that occur after the date of this earnings presentation. The determination of the amounts that are excluded from this non-GAAP financial measure is a matter of management judgment and depends upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense, income amounts or anticipated synergies recognized in a given period. VSE is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA margin because certain information regarding the Company’s provision for income taxes is not available, and management cannot reliably predict all of the necessary components of net income at this time without unreasonable effort or expense. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company’s future financial results. Non-GAAP Financial Measures Pg.11
