MAYVILLE ENGINEERING COMPANY, INC. ANNOUNCES

FIRST QUARTER 2020 RESULTS

Generated Solid Cash Flow and Maintains Strong Financial Position

Mayville, WI/May 5, 2020/Mayville Engineering Company (NYSE: MEC) (the “Company” or “MEC”), a leading U.S.-based value added manufacturing partner that provides a broad range of prototyping and tooling, production fabrication, coating, assembly and aftermarket components, today announced results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020.

First Quarter Highlights:

• Produced net sales of $108.6 million

• Recorded net income of $0.1 million

• Generated Adjusted EBITDA of $11.4 million

• Ended the quarter with net debt of $74.8 million, or 1.6 times trailing twelve month Adjusted EBITDA

• Company withdraws guidance due to uncertainty regarding the impact of the coronavirus(COVID-19) pandemic

“Despite ongoing challenges in some of the end markets we serve, our first quarter results reflect sequentially improved operating performance and the benefits of the cost saving measures implemented over the past six months,” noted Robert D. Kamphuis, Chairman, President and CEO.“Of course, theCOVID-19 pandemic has added a level of uncertainty and complexity across the industry. MEC and many of our customers maintain the essential services designation, and as always, we stand ready to assist our customers in any way we can. Today, all of our facilities remain operational, albeit at lower production levels. Our team has worked diligently to ensure precautions and procedures have been implemented to protect the health and safety of our employees and our facilities are well positioned to operate safely and effectively going forward. Our standing as a U.S. focused company with strong financial footing and solid cash flow means our organization is well equipped to successfully navigate these difficult times.”

First Quarter 2020 Results

Net sales were $108.6 million for the first quarter of 2020 as compared to $143.7 million for the same prior year period. The $35.1 million, or 24% decline was mostly attributed to the continued impact of market demand changes and related destocking activities that adversely impacted the latter part of 2019 and the impact of theCOVID-19 pandemic. As expected, these declines were most apparent in the Commercial Vehicle, Agricultural and Construction end markets served.

Manufacturing margins were $11.8 million for the first quarter of 2020, as compared to $19.6 million for the same prior year period. The decline of $7.8 million was mostly driven by the previously noted market demand factors, along with inventory and health care reserves driven by the estimated potential impacts ofCOVID-19. These factors were slightly offset by strong labor productivity driven by our recent investments in automation and technology.

Manufacturing margin percentages were 10.9% for the first quarter of 2020, as compared to 13.6% of net sales for the same prior year period, a decline of 270 basis points. The decline was mostly attributable to lower sales volumes resulting in less overhead absorption, partially offset by strong labor productivity driven by efficiency gains through our investments in new technology and automation. When compared to the fourth quarter of 2019, manufacturing margin percentage increased by 700 basis points due to relatively improved sales demand coupled with effective cost reduction actions.

Depreciation expenses were $5.6 million for the first quarter of 2020, as compared to $5.0 million for the same prior year period. The increase was driven by our investments in new technology and automation made in 2019. Amortization expenses were $2.7 million for the first quarter of 2020, equivalent to the same prior year period.

Profit sharing, bonuses, and deferred compensation expenses were $1.3 million for the first quarter of 2020, as compared to $1.8 million for the same prior year period. The decrease was primarily driven by lower bonus accruals and modest declines in deferred compensation liabilities.

Other selling, general and administrative expenses were $5.6 million for the first quarter of 2020, as compared to $6.7 million for the same prior year period, which included $1.8 million ofone-time IPO and Defiance Metal Products (DMP) acquisition related expenses. Excluding theseone-time expenses, other selling, general and administrative expenses increased $0.7 million primarily due to costs associated with being a publicly traded company, slightly offset by the aforementioned cost saving initiatives, plus synergies achieved through the integration of DMP.

Interest expense was $0.8 million for the first quarter of 2020, as compared to $2.8 million for the same prior year period. The decrease is due to less debt during the first quarter 2020 as compared to 2019, and lower interest rates attributable to the more favorable terms in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement from September 2019.

Income tax expense was $0.7 million for the first quarter of 2020 as compared to $0.8 million for the same prior year period. Federal income tax expenses will be offset against our federal net operating loss carryforward of approximately $13.8 million until it is fully utilized.

EBITDA and EBITDA Margin percent were $9.8 million and 9.1%, respectively, for the first quarter of 2020 as compared to $13.7 million and 9.5%, respectively, for the first quarter of 2019. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin percentage were $11.4 million and 10.5%, respectively, for the first quarter of 2020, as compared to $16.8 million and 11.7%, respectively, for the same quarter in 2019. The decrease in EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by the declines in net sales due to the aforementioned declines in market demand. When compared to the fourth quarter of 2019, Adjusted EBITDA margin percentage increased by 570 basis points. The increase is attributable to improved sales demand, coupled with effective cost reduction actions.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Net debt was $74.8 million as of March 31, 2020 resulting in a trailing twelve month Adjusted EBITDA to net debt ratio of approximately 1.6 to 1.0 as compared to a covenant limit of 3.25 to 1.0 under our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. This agreement provides access to $200 million of liquidity through a revolving loan plus an additional $100 million through an accordion feature.

At the end of March, the Company drew down $13 million from the revolver and deposited it into a money market account to ensure liquidity due to the uncertainty of theCOVID-19 pandemic impact in the most extreme of circumstances.

Capital expenditures were $2.4 million during the first quarter of 2020 as compared to $8.2 million for the same period of 2019. The decline was mostly driven by the timing of certain new technology and automation investments that were originally planned for the first quarter of 2020, but actually occurred in the fourth quarter of 2019. Capital expenditures for 2020 continue to be expected in the range of $12 to $15 million.

“We ended the first quarter in a strong financial position, which we expect to maintain during 2020,” noted Todd M. Butz, CFO. “Our focus is to maintain our current strong balance sheet and ample liquidity, following the completion of a new five-year credit agreement in September 2019.”

Outlook

Based on the uncertainty of the overall economic outlook due to theCOVID-19 pandemic, we are withdrawing guidance. At this time, our aim is to provide updated guidance as the economic outlook becomes clearer.

Kamphuis added,“Despite the near-term uncertainty, we remain confident in the strength of our business model and the opportunities ahead to grow the business over the long-term. Over the past 75 years, MEC has proven its ability to weather any economic storm by continually providing value to our customers and always meeting and exceeding their expectations. We are well positioned to successfully manage through the operational and financial impact of theCOVID-19 pandemic, and plan to invest in the business to ensure we emerge from this period of uncertainty in an even stronger competitive position.”

Use ofNon-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains financial information calculated in a manner other than in accordance with U.S generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

Thenon-GAAP measures used in this press release are EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin.

EBITDA represents net income before interest expense, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation, and amortization. EBITDA Margin represents EBITDA as a percentage of net sales for each period. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA before transaction fees incurred in connection with the DMP acquisition and our initial public offering, the loss on debt extinguishment relating to our December 2018 credit agreement,non-cash purchase accounting charges including costs recognized on thestep-up of acquired inventory and contingent consideration fair value adjustments, andone-time increases in deferred compensation and long term incentive plan expenses related to the initial public offering and, for 2020, stock-based compensation. Adjusted EBITDA Margin represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales for each period. These metrics are supplemental measures of our operating performance that are neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, GAAP. These measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of our operating performance. We present Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin as management uses these measures as key performance indicators, and we believe they are measures frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other parties to evaluate companies in our industry. These measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.

Our calculation of EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBIDTA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin may not be comparable to the similarly named measures reported by other companies. Potential differences between our measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA compared to other similar companies’ measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may include differences in capital structure and tax positions.

Please reference our reconciliation of net income, the most directly comparable measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, and the calculation of EBITDA Margin and Adjusted EBITDA Margin included in this press release.
