NowVertical Group Reports Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results

TORONTO, Nov. 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — NowVertical Group Inc. (TSX-V: NOW) (“NOW” or the “Company”), a leading data and AI solutions provider, announces financial results for its third fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2025. Unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars. Management will host an investor webinar at 11:00 AM EST (8:00 AM PST) on Wednesday, November 12^th, to discuss the Company’s financial and business results.

“I am very proud that during the third quarter we continued to strengthen the foundation for a more profitable, enterprise-focused NowVertical,” said Sandeep Mendiratta, CEO of NOW. “Revenue in the quarter and year-to-date reflects the ongoing transition of our business toward higher-margin strategic accounts that contribute more meaningfully to EBITDA and future growth. Our focus on these high-value relationships is paying off, with revenue from our top 30 clients now representing 69% of total revenue and growing over 23% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024.”

“Through our ‘One Brand, One Business’ integration strategy, we have maintained industry-leading margins and delivered positive operating income and year-to-date adjusted EBITDA growth, while positioning the business for significant expansion as larger enterprise accounts scale and recurring revenue deepens.”

“During the quarter, we also strengthened our partnership with Google Cloud, where we are among a select group of partners globally certified across Data, Machine Learning, and Generative AI specializations. This collaboration has generated more than $3.4 million in revenue so far this year and created twenty new enterprise opportunities. With this foundation and a stronger balance sheet, we are well positioned to accelerate growth and deliver sustained long-term value for shareholders,” concluded Mr. Mendiratta.

Cautionary Note Regarding Non-IFRS Measures:

This news release refers to certain non-IFRS measures. These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of the Company’s results of operations from management’s perspective. The Company’s definitions of non-IFRS measures used in this news release may not be the same as the definitions for such measures used by other companies in their reporting. Non-IFRS measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s financial information reported under IFRS. The Company uses non IFRS financial measures including “EBITDA”, and “Adjusted EBITDA”. These non-IFRS measures are used to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance and to eliminate items that have less bearing on our operational performance or operating conditions and thus highlight trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. The Company believes that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS financial measures in the evaluation of issuers. The Company’s management also uses non-IFRS financial measures to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period and prepare annual budgets and forecasts.

Non-IFRS Measures:

The non-IFRS financial measures referred to in this news release are defined below. The management discussion and analysis for the three months ended September 30, 2025, available at nowvertical.com and on SEDAR+ at http://www.sedarplus.com contains supporting calculations for Adjusted Revenue, EBITDA % and Adjusted EBITDA.

“Adjusted EBITDA” adjusts net income (loss) before depreciation and amortization expenses, net interest costs, and provision for income taxes for revenue adjustments in “Adjusted Revenue” and items such as acquisition accounting adjustments, transaction expenses related to acquisitions, transactional gains or losses on assets, asset impairment charges, non-recurring expense items, non-cash stock compensation costs, and the full year impact of cost synergies related to restructuring activities, such as a reduction of employees.

The Company has reconciled Adjusted EBITDA to the most comparable financial measure as follows:

“EBITDA %” is defined as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of Adjusted Revenue.

“Adjusted Revenue” adjusts revenue to eliminate the effects of acquisition accounting on the Company’s revenues, which predominantly pertain to fair market value adjustments to the opening deferred revenue balances of acquired companies.

Cautionary note regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This news release may contain forward-looking statements and forward-looking information (within the meaning of applicable securities laws) which reflect the Company’s current expectations regarding future events. All statements in this news release that are not purely historical statements of fact are forward-looking statements and include statements regarding beliefs, plans, expectations, future, strategy, objectives, goals and targets. Although the Company believes that such statements are reasonable and reflect expectations of future developments and other factors which management believes to be reasonable and relevant, the Company can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Forward-looking statements can generally be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as “may”, “should”, “will”, “could”, “intend”, “estimate”, “plan”, “anticipate”, “expect”, “believe” or “continue”, or the negative thereof or similar variations. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause future results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from the estimated future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and undue reliance should not be placed thereon, as unknown or unpredictable factors could have material adverse effects on future results, performance or achievements of the Company. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described herein as intended, planned, anticipated, believed, estimated or expected.

All of the forward-looking statement contained in this press release are qualified by the foregoing cautionary statements, and there can be no guarantee that the results or developments that we anticipate will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequences or effects on our business, financial condition or results of operation.
