THERMON REPORTS SECOND QUARTER FISCAL 2023 RESULTS

Revenue Up 24% with EPS Up $0.32; Raising Full Year Guidance

AUSTIN, Texas, November 3, 2022 -- Thermon Group Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:THR) ("Thermon"), a global leader in industrial process heating solutions, today announced consolidated financial results for the second quarter ("Q2 2023") for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023 ("Fiscal 2023"). Key highlights for Q2 2023 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021 ("Q2 2022") include:

Produced revenue of $100.6 million, an increase 24%, driven by sales growth in the US, Canada and Latin America

Achieved a gross margin of 45.7%, as compared to 39.0%, due to higher volume, favorable mix, pricing realization and operational efficiency

Realized fully diluted GAAP earnings per share ("EPS") of $0.33 and record non-GAAP adjusted EPS of $0.38, largely due to margin improvement and cost control

Generated Net Income of $11.0 million, an increase of 2,203% and adjusted EBITDA of $21.9 million, an increase of 92%, driven by volume growth and prudent cost management

Raising Fiscal 2023 revenue and earnings guidance due to continued strong market demand

Bruce Thames, Thermon CEO and President said, "Building on the strong momentum from the first quarter, our global Thermon team delivered an outstanding performance with significantly improved profitability, including revenue growth of 24% and adjusted EBITDA growth of 92%. Profit margins grew year over year due to higher volume and favorable mix, augmented by our operational excellence program and price realization. Robust customer demand in the Western Hemisphere maintained momentum during the second quarter and was the main growth driver, while Europe continues to be challenged by geopolitical events and higher energy costs. We remain dedicated to the execution of our long term strategy, are excited about the emerging opportunities to enable the energy transition and decarbonization and will continue to be disciplined in investing for growth while managing controllable spending."

Q2 2023 organic sales (excluding revenue contributed by the acquisition of Powerblanket) were $97.6 million as compared to $81.3 million in Q2 2022, an increase of $16.3 million, or 20%. Sales growth in the Western Hemisphere was a result of continued deferred maintenance activity in upstream and downstream oil markets and investments driven by the sustained commodity prices and global demand. Sales attributable to the recent Powerblanket acquisition were $3.0 million, with integration in progress and on schedule.

Backlog was $160.8 million as of September 30, 2022, representing a $5.3 million increase, or 3%, as compared to Q2 2022 backlog of $155.5 million. Orders in Q2 2023 were $95.2 million compared to $120.3 million in Q2 2022, a decrease of $25.1 million or 21%.

Balance Sheet, Liquidity and Cash Flow

Thermon maintained a strong balance sheet during the quarter. The net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA ratio decreased to 1.4x from 2.3x in the prior year period. Gross outstanding debt increased by 2.6% year over year due to the Powerblanket acquisition. Available liquidity at the end of the quarter totaled $101.1 million, including $31.9 million in cash and cash equivalents and $69.2 million available under credit agreements.

Working capital increased by 32.0% to $154.5 million during the quarter. Capital expenditures during the quarter were $2.0 million, up from $1.1 million in the prior year period. Cash from operating activities of $0.7 million and Free Cash Flow of ($1.3) million represented a short term investment in inventory as we address seasonality, global supply chain constraints and strategic investments to support our long term strategy.

Revised Outlook

Kevin Fox, Thermon's Chief Financial Officer, added, "Due to the strong performance in the first half of the year, we are again raising our annual guidance. For our fiscal year ending March 31, 2023, we expect revenue will be approximately $405-$420 million, which includes $18 million of revenue contribution from the Powerblanket acquisition. We also expect GAAP EPS in Fiscal 2023 to be approximately $1.08-$1.17 per share, with Adjusted EPS to be approximately $1.30-$1.39 per share. We expect continued strength in the Western Hemisphere to offset the contraction we are seeing in Europe, and we believe the combination of our operational excellence program with disciplined capital allocation priorities will deliver improved cash flow in the second half and profitable growth throughout Fiscal 2023."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Disclosure in this release of "Adjusted EPS," "Adjusted EBITDA," "Adjusted EBITDA margin," "Adjusted Net Income/(Loss)," "Free Cash Flow," and "Net Debt," which are "non-GAAP financial measures" as defined under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), are intended as supplemental measures of our financial performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). "Adjusted Net Income/(Loss)" and "Adjusted EPS" (or "Adjusted fully diluted EPS") represent net income/(loss) before the impact of restructuring and other charges/(income), acquisition costs, amortization of intangible assets, tax expense for impact of foreign rate increases, the benefit from the CEWS, and any tax effect of such adjustments. "Adjusted EBITDA" represents net income/(loss) before interest expense (net of interest income), income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition costs, costs associated with restructuring and other income/(charges), and income related to the CEWS. "Adjusted EBITDA margin" represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenue. "Free Cash Flow" represents cash
3


provided by operating activities less cash used for the purchase of property, plant, and equipment, net of sales of rental equipment and proceeds from sales of land and buildings. "Net Debt" represents total outstanding principal debt less cash and cash equivalents on hand.

We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are meaningful to our investors to enhance their understanding of our financial performance and are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to compare our performance with the performance of other companies that report Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin or Adjusted Net Income/(Loss). Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income/(Loss) and Free Cash Flow should be considered in addition to, and not as substitutes for, income from operations, net income/(loss), net income/(loss) per share and other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP. We provide Free Cash Flow as a measure of liquidity. Our calculation of Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income/(Loss) and Free Cash Flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. For a description of how Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income/(Loss) and Free Cash Flow are calculated and reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP measures, see the sections of this release titled "Reconciliation of Net Income/(Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA," "Reconciliation of Net Income/(Loss) to Adjusted Net Income/(Loss) and Adjusted EPS" and "Reconciliation of Cash Provided by Operating Activities to Free Cash Flow."
