Second Quarter 2026 Highlights (comparisons to second quarter 2025)
Full-Year 2026 Guidance Updated, Provides Third Quarter Outlook
LITTLE ROCK, Ark.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Onterris, Inc. (the “Company,” “Onterris” or “ONT”) (NYSE: ONT), a global environmental solutions company solving complex challenges for planet and progress, today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.
Onterris President and Chief Executive Officer, Vijay Manthripragada, commented, “While environmental emergency response activity and related services remain significantly below historical levels, as reflected in our updated 2026 revenue outlook, the underlying business continues to grow. We expect Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA1 growth in 2026 and approximately 150 basis points of margin expansion compared to 2025. Underlying growth in the business and improved profitability explain why full year cash flow expectations are largely unchanged from the start of the year. These expectations are grounded in our relatively predictable testing business and known consulting and treatment projects."
Mr. Manthripragada continued, “We remain committed to achieving our long-term goals and are continuing to execute against the priorities within our control, including serving our clients, maintaining cost discipline and converting a greater share of our revenue into earnings and cash flow. That work is strengthening Onterris and supporting our objective of enhancing value for stockholders.”
Second Quarter 2026 Results
Revenue in the second quarter of 2026 was $186.7 million compared to $234.5 million in the prior-year quarter, a decrease of $47.9 million. The decrease was driven by lower Consulting and Treatment segment revenue of $46.2 million, primarily due to historically low environmental emergency response and related recovery service revenues in the current-year quarter compared to an abnormally high prior-year quarter driven by a single environmental event. Environmental emergency response revenue declined by $37.7 million. Measurement and Analysis segment revenue was lower by $1.7 million; despite this decrease there is strong client demand and acceleration into the second half of 2026.
Income from operations in the second quarter of 2026 was $6.5 million, compared to $14.9 million in the prior-year quarter. The decrease primarily reflected lower revenue, partially offset by improved project mix and continued cost discipline. Net income in the second quarter of 2026 was $1.4 million, or $0.04 EPS, compared to net income of $18.4 million, or $0.42 EPS, in the prior-year quarter. The decrease in net income primarily reflected lower operating income and lower fair-value gain on financial instruments, partially offset by lower income tax expense. The $0.38 comparative period decline in EPS was due to lower net income, partially offset by the elimination of the Series A-2 dividend following full redemption of the shares on July 1, 2025, and a lower diluted weighted-average share count.
Adjusted Net Income1 and Adj EPS1 in the second quarter of 2026 were $19.6 million and $0.51, respectively, compared to $27.4 million and $0.60, respectively, in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted Net Income1 decreased primarily due to lower revenues in the current period. The decrease in Adj EPS1 in the current period was partially offset by the elimination of the Series A-2 dividend and a lower fully diluted weighted-average share count.
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA1 in the second quarter of 2026 was $31.9 million, or 17.1% of revenue, compared to $39.6 million, or 16.9% of revenue, in the prior-year quarter. The decrease in Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA1 was primarily due to historically low emergency response and related recovery service revenues. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA1 as a percentage of revenue improved due to successful ongoing cost optimization.
Cash Flow, Liquidity and Capital Resources
2026 operating cash flow expectations are largely unchanged. Onterris expects to convert 60.0% of full-year Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA1 into operating cash flow and generate $70.0 million to $80.0 million in operating cash flow in the second half of 2026. Given consistent annual cash flow, Onterris expects a year-end 2026 leverage ratio of approximately 2.5x, consistent with prior year and inclusive of $30.0 million of share repurchases and $10.8 million of contingent consideration payments in the first half of 2026.
Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was $5.5 million, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $27.4 million in the prior-year period. This $32.9 million decrease primarily reflected lower earnings before non-cash items and higher seasonal working capital usage, including the payment of $27.7 million in first quarter 2026 for accrued annual 2025 bonuses due to financial outperformance, compared to $11.7 million paid for bonuses in the prior year.
As of June 30, 2026, Onterris reported a leverage ratio under the 2025 Credit Facility of 3.2x, inclusive of $30.0 million of share repurchases and $10.8 million of contingent consideration payments in the first half of 2026. Total available liquidity was $160.8 million, including $12.7 million of cash and $148.1 million of availability on its revolving line of credit.
Board-led Strategic Review Process
The Onterris Board regularly evaluates opportunities to enhance stockholder value. Today, the Company announced a comprehensive Board-led strategic review, with the assistance of outside financial and legal advisors, of the Company’s business, portfolio, capital allocation, long-range strategic plan, and strategic alternatives. These alternatives include, among others, evaluating acquisition interest in the Company and other value-creating transactions (including acquisition opportunities), as well as evaluating operational initiatives and the continued execution of its standalone plan.
The Board has not set a timetable for the conclusion of its review, and there can be no assurance that the review will result in any transaction or other outcome. Onterris does not intend to comment further regarding the review unless and until it determines that further disclosure is appropriate or necessary.
Limited-Duration Rights Plan
The Board also approved the adoption of a limited-duration stockholder rights plan (the “Rights Plan”) in response to significant and undisclosed accumulation of Onterris shares and derivative securities. The Rights Plan is intended to protect the best interests of all Onterris stockholders and the value of their investment, including by safeguarding the integrity of the Board-led strategic review process announced above.
The Rights Plan is designed to reduce the likelihood that any person or group prevents Onterris stockholders from realizing the long-term value of their investment by acquiring negative or actual control without appropriately compensating the Company’s stockholders. It is also intended to afford the Board sufficient time and opportunity to make informed judgments that are in the best interests of the Company and all Onterris stockholders.
The Rights Plan is effective immediately and has a one-year duration, expiring on August 4, 2027. The Board may consider an earlier termination of the Rights Plan as circumstances warrant.
Further details about the Rights Plan will be contained in a Form 8-K to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
| 1 Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), and Diluted Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per share are non-GAAP measures. See the appendix to this release for a discussion of these measures, including how they are calculated and the reasons why we believe they provide useful information to investors, and a reconciliation for historical periods to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. | |
