(NYSE: ASPN) (“Aspen” or the “Company”), a technology leader in sustainability and electrification solutions, today announced financial results for the third quarter of 2025, and discussed recent business developments. Total revenue for the third quarter of 2025 was $73.0 million, compared to $117.3 million in the third quarter of 2024. Net loss was $6.3 million, which included $1.6 million of restructuring and impairment charges, compared to net loss of $13.0 million in the third quarter of 2024. Adjusting net loss for the restructuring and impairment charges would result in a net loss of $4.8 million. Net loss per share was $0.08, compared to net loss per share of $0.17 in the third quarter of 2024. Adjusting net loss per share for the restructuring and impairment costs would result in a net loss per share of $0.06. Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2025 was $6.3 million, compared to $25.4 million in the third quarter of 2024. A reconciliation of GAAP financial results to non-GAAP financial results are provided in the financial schedules that are part of this press release.

Story Continues “We anticipate a strong 2026 for our Energy Industrial business as project activity normalizes. We also see near-term revenue opportunities from our diversification into adjacent markets. Our focus remains on driving growth through innovation and building a profitable, capital-efficient business,” added Young. 2025 Financial Outlook Aspen’s updated full-year 2025 outlook is as follows: ($ in millions, except per share amounts – figures may not total due to rounding) Metric YTD Actuals Prior FY 2025 Outlook Updated FY 2025 Outlook Revenue 230 297 - 317 270 – 280 Net Income (Loss) (317) (317) – (307) (342) – (334) Earnings Per Share (Basic) (3.85) (3.86) – (3.73) (4.15) – (4.05) Adjusted EBITDA 21 35 – 45 7 – 15 CAPEX* 20 25 25 *Capital Expenditures excluding costs related to the Statesboro plant project, which totaled $15.4 million year-to-date as of 9/30/2025 “As we reset our outlook to reflect lower near-term demand in the U.S. EV market, we remain focused on the elements within our control,” said Grant Thoele, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. “Throughout 2025, we’ve taken decisive actions to reduce fixed costs and improve operating efficiency, fortifying the foundation of the business. In addition to strengthening our core markets, we are focused on driving growth through disciplined execution, thoughtful diversification, and developing strategic partnerships.” The Company's 2025 outlook assumes depreciation and amortization of $22.5 million, stock-based compensation expense of $10.5 million, other expense (net) of $11.5 million, restructuring and demobilization costs of $16.5 million, impairment of property, plant, and equipment of $287.6 million, and weighted average shares outstanding of 82.3 million for the full year. A reconciliation of net loss to non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA for the 2025 financial outlook is provided in the financial schedules that are part of this press release. An explanation of this non-GAAP financial measure is also included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” Aspen may incur, among other items, additional charges, realize gains or losses, incur financing costs or interest expense, or experience other events in 2025, including those related to supply chain disruptions, or further cost inflation, that could cause actual results to vary materially from this outlook. See Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements below. Conference Call and Webcast Notification A conference call with Aspen management to discuss third quarter 2025 results and recent business developments will be held Thursday, November 6, 2025 at 8:30 a.m. EST. During the call, management will respond to questions concerning, but not limited to, Aspen's financial performance, business conditions, and financial outlook. Management's discussion and responses could contain information that has not been previously disclosed. Shareholders and other interested parties may call +1 (404) 975-4839 (domestic) or +1 (929) 526-1599 (international) and reference conference ID "877424" to participate in the conference call.

A copy of this press release is posted in the Investors section on Aspen's website. Non-GAAP Financial Measures In addition to providing financial measurements based on generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"), Aspen provides additional financial metrics that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP ("non-GAAP"). The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, as a measure of operating performance because the non-GAAP financial measures do not include the impact of items that management does not consider indicative of Aspen's core operating performance. In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA (i) for planning purposes, including the preparation of Aspen's annual operating budget, (ii) to allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of its business, and (iii) as a performance measure under its bonus plan. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect Aspen's ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful comparisons and analysis of trends in its business, as it excludes expenses and gains not reflective of Aspen's ongoing operating results or that may be infrequent and/or unusual in nature. Management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors in understanding and evaluating Aspen's operating results and future prospects in the same manner as management and in comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of peer companies. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures do not replace the presentation of Aspen's GAAP financial results and should only be used as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, Aspen's financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. In this press release, Aspen has provided a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), adjusted net loss to net loss and adjusted net loss per share to net loss per share, in each case the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Management strongly encourages investors to review Aspen's financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not rely on any single financial measure. About Aspen Aerogels, Inc.
