These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance or liquidity measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that presenting these non-GAAP measures enables investors to compare our operating performance consistently over various time periods without regard to changes in our capital structure. Management believes that free cash flow, which measures our ability to generate additional cash from our business operations, is an important financial measure for use in evaluating Marine Products' liquidity. Free cash flow should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. Additionally, Marine Products' definition of free cash flow is limited, in that it does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures, due to the fact that the measure does not deduct the payments required for debt service and other contractual obligations or payments made for business acquisitions. Therefore, management believes it is important to view free cash flow as a measure that provides supplemental information to our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of financial performance, financial position, or cash flows that either 1) excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statement of operations, balance sheet or statement of cash flows, or 2) includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated and presented.Set forth in the appendices below are reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures with their most directly comparable GAAP measures. These reconciliations also appear on Marine Products Corporation's investor website, which can be found on the Internet at www.marineproductscorp.com.Appendix A(Unaudited)Three Months Ended Year Ended December 31,2025202420252024Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted Net Income (In thousands)Net income$2,365$4,267$11,383$17,853Adjustments:Add: Taxes on company owned life insurance liquidation1,039—1,039—Adjusted net income$3,404$4,267$12,422$17,853(Unaudited)Three Months Ended Year Ended December 31,2025202420252024Reconciliation of Diluted Earnings Per Share to Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per ShareDiluted earnings per share$0.07$0.12$0.32$0.50Adjustments: Add: Taxes on company owned life insurance liquidation0.03—0.03—Adjusted diluted earnings per share$0.10$0.12$0.35$0.50Weighted average shares outstanding (in thousands)34,99934,70734,96534,689Appendix B(Unaudited)Three Months Ended Year Ended December 31, December 31, December 31, December 31, (In thousands)2025202420252024Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDA and Net Income Margin to EBITDA MarginNet income$2,365$4,267$11,383$17,853Adjustments:Add: Income tax provision (benefit)1,750(71)4,3823,289Add: Depreciation and amortization7776983,1382,786Less: Interest income, net3765121,7372,876EBITDA$4,516$4,382$17,166$21,052Net sales$64,571$47,818$244,419$236,555Net income margin(1)3.7 %8.9 %4.7 %7.5 %Adjusted net income margin(1)5.3 %8.9 %5.1 %7.5 %EBITDA margin(1)7.0 %9.2 %7.0 %8.9 %(1) Net income margin is calculated as Net income divided by Net sales.
